Rumored Couple Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny Have a Date Night in New York City

It's still unclear if things are getting serious between Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny, but they do seem to be enjoying hanging out together. On Saturday, the rumored couple had dinner together at Carbone in New York City. The pair were spotted together on their way to the restaurant, and they were also photographed smiling in the back seat of a car with another couple after they left Carbone.

Jenner kept things casual for her night out. The model wore a sheer brown shirt paired with a fur-trimmed miniskirt and matching boots. For his part, Bad Bunny wore a black shirt and black pants paired with a yellow-and-black jacket with several necklaces.

"The Kardashians" star and the "Me Porto Bonito" singer first sparked dating rumors in February when they were spotted out with Hailey and Justin Bieber. At the time, a source told People, "They were introduced by friends. He moved to L.A. a few weeks ago and bought a house. She likes him and is having fun. He is different from guys that she dated in the past. He is very charming."

Since then, they've both avoided commenting on their relationship status, but they've been out together multiple times. In March, they reportedly dined out with friends, including Jenner's sister Kylie, per E! News, and earlier this month, Jenner was spotted supporting Bad Bunny at Coachella.

Jenner previously dated NBA player Devin Booker until October 2022, when the pair split. As for Bad Bunny, he was linked to Gabriela Berlingeri in 2017, but he has been keeping his romantic life out of the spotlight in recent years.

Ariana Madix Attends White House Correspondents' Dinner With Lisa Vanderpump and Lala Kent

Did President Joe Biden just pick a side in the Scandoval? OK, so the president didn't actually weigh in on the ongoing "Vanderpump Rules" breakup drama, but Ariana Madix, Lisa Vanderpump, and Lala Kent were in attendance at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

On April 29, the trio were looking fabulous as they walked the red carpet at the event. Madix, who is going through a split from longtime boyfriend Tom Sandoval, wore a strapless white gown with lots of detailing along with a sheer cape. Vanderpump opted for a simple black gown with a dramatic sparkly, gold cloak, and Kent wore a strapless blue dress with a floral pattern. All three women were guests of DailyMail.com.

Madix's highly publicized breakup has been making headlines due to Sandoval having an affair with their "Vanderpump Rules" costar Raquel Leviss. Since her split, the 37-year-old reality star has made it clear she's ready to move forward. In addition to releasing a line of post-breakup merchandise, she's also reportedly in talks to star in the next season of "Dancing With the Stars," per Entertainment Tonight.

Still, the White House Correspondents' Dinner may have served up the most surreal Scandoval moment to date when host Roy Wood Jr. referenced the cheating drama in his speech. "Scandals have been devouring careers this year," he said. "The untouchable Tucker Carlson is out of a job . . . but to Tucker's staff, I want you to know that I know what you're feeling. I work at 'The Daily Show,' so I too have been blindsided by the sudden departure of the host of a fake news program. Tucker got caught up. Got caught up like that dude from 'Vanderpump Rules.'"

Wood Jr. continued, "I don't know what 'Vanderpump Rules' is about, I've watched it a couple of times. My friends told me it's like 'BMF' but for white people. Or is that 'Succession'? No, 'Succession' is 'Power' for white people. No, Tucker Carlson is 'Power' for white people. No, that's white power - you know what, never mind."

Chilli's Son, Tron Austin, Supports His Mom's Relationship With Matthew Lawrence

Matthew Lawrence has received Chilli's son, Tron Austin's seal of approval. In a recent interview with People, the "Family Legacy" actor opened up about his mom's new relationship, including how he feels about Lawrence.

"Oh man, I just like seeing her happy, you know?" the 25-year-old shared. "As someone who is now five years into my relationship, I love seeing humans connect and witnessing that genuineness. I feel that from him."

He went on to add that Chilli is being protective of her budding romance with Lawrence. "We've only met a couple of times because they're really building their relationship since she's very careful about that kind of stuff," Austin explained. He went on to add that the TLC singer's willingness to be open about her romance "shows me that this is a very special person in her life."

Chilli and Lawrence made their relationship Instagram official in January, but they were first spotted together in Hawaii in August of last year. Since then, they've been open about how much they're enjoying spending time together. In March 17 interview with the radio show "Ryan Cameron Uncensored," the 52-year-old even revealed she's not ruling out starting a family with Lawrence in the future.

"You never know," Chilli said. "I would never say that [I'm done]. I gotta be married for sure … and I'm not married, yet."

Lawrence has also expressed interest in having children with Chilli one day. In a March 15 interview with E! News, the '90s star said, "She's an amazing person. She's already a mother, she has an incredible son. I respect so much as to how she's raised him. She'd be an incredible mother again, and I'd be incredibly lucky, but that's way in the future."

For now, Austin is just glad that his mom has found someone who makes her so happy. "I wish them all the best and I think he's a great guy," he told the publication. "I'm really happy for her."

Gwyneth Paltrow Is Glad She Popularized the Term "Conscious Uncoupling"

When Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin announced their divorce in 2014 by saying they had decided to "consciously uncouple" they inspired a meme. But nearly a decade later, the Goop founder is glad she and her ex popularized the term. On April 28, she opened up about her experience with the phrase during an Instagram question-and-answer session on her Instagram Story.

"I definitely did not coin the phrase, but I feel despite us taking quite a lot of sh*t for it when we first announced that all these years ago, I feel very proud that we were able to, maybe, make some divorces a little bit easier, happier," she shared.

Paltrow and Martin announced their split in a post on the "Iron Man" actor's Goop website. Their use of the term "conscious uncoupling" led to an increased interest in the phrase, which was originally coined by marriage and family therapist Katherine Woodward Thomas. In fact, Goop published a follow-up essay further explaining how reframing the idea of divorce can lead to a healthier transition for families.

The essay read in part, "Naturally, divorce is much easier if both parties choose to have a conscious uncoupling. However, your experience and personal growth isn't conditional on whether or not your spouse chooses to participate. You can still receive the lessons he or she has to give you, resist being baited into dramatic arguments, and stand firm in your internal, spiritual support system. By choosing to handle your uncoupling in a conscious way, regardless of what's happening with your spouse, you'll see that although it looks like everything is coming apart; it's actually all coming back together."

For Paltrow and Martin, the idea helped them continue to provide a strong foundation for their children, Apple and Moses. In a 2019 appearance on Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert," Paltrow opened up about what consciously uncoupling meant for her family, as well as how people's negative reaction to the term made an already difficult time more difficult.

She explained that it felt like a "layer of the world turning on us about saying, essentially, we just want to be nice to each other and stay a family." Paltrow added, "It was brutal. I already felt like I had no skin on."

Ultimately, the public's reaction to the term didn't change the fact that the concept made her and Martin's divorce easier to navigate. "The most common wound that I heard from children of divorce was, 'My parents couldn't be in the same room and couldn't be friends," she explained. "I just thought, 'I wonder if there's a way to circumvent that and go directly to the point where we're friends and we remember what we loved about each other, and constantly acknowledge that we created these incredible human beings together.'"

She continued, "We're a family, that's it. We can pretend we're not and hate each other… or, [we can] try to reinvent this for ourselves."

Chris Pratt Hopes Son Jack Will "Finally Think I'm Cool" After Seeing "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3"

Chris Pratt is hoping to gain some cool points with his son with his latest role in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3." The 43-year-old actor, who plays Star-Lord in the forthcoming film, is a proud dad of three, and on Thursday, he attended the movie's Hollywood premiere with his eldest child, Jack, whom he shares with ex-wife Anna Faris. Speaking to People, Pratt said he hasn't achieved cool status with Jack just yet, but he's "hoping after tonight, he'll finally think I'm cool."

"Actually, he's here with me tonight. He's one of my dates tonight," said Pratt, who was also joined by wife Katherine Schwarzenegger.

Of the upcoming project, Pratt said, "The relationship between a parent and a child is definitely explored in this film, and there's no stronger bond than between a parent and a child. And, yeah, certainly I can draw on my own experience as a parent when it comes to drawing and finding ways to be emotional and to push emotion."

Pratt most recently welcomed his second child with Schwarzenegger, a baby girl named Eloise, in May 2022. "We are so excited to announce the birth of our second daughter, Eloise Christina Schwarzenegger Pratt," Pratt wrote on his Instagram last spring. "Mama and baby are doing well. We feel beyond blessed and grateful." Baby Eloise joins the couple's daughter, Lyla, and his son, Jack.

Pratt also gave an update on his two daughters at the premiere, telling People, "Eloise is just starting to pull herself up. She's crawling around. She's saying, 'Dada.' She loves my guitar."

"Lyla's very, very sweet," he added. "Right now, what is she doing? She's a little sick at home, so I've been sleeping on her floor at night."

Pratt and Schwarzenegger tied the knot on June 8, 2019, after a six-month engagement that came less than a year after they began dating, and the couple shared their exciting pregnancy news with daughter Lyla back in April 2020.

Kourtney and Kim Are Really Not Getting Along in the Trailer For "The Kardashians" Season 3

Image Source: YouTube user Hulu

Where there's smoke, there's fire. Amid internet speculation about the status of Kim and Kourtney Kardashian's relationship, the new trailer for "The Kardashians" season three reveals that the sisters were recently at odds over the latter's wedding festivities.

In the clip - which also shows Kim have an emotional breakdown about her split from boyfriend Pete Davidson, and teases the return of Scott Disick after he was mostly absent in season two - Kendall Jenner is seen asking Kim about the situation with Kourtney. The footage then cuts to Kourtney saying in an interview, "My sister used my wedding as a business opportunity." Kim partnered with Dolce & Gabbana after the fashion house hosted Kourtney and Travis Barker's Italy wedding in May, which seems to be the source of the women's disagreement.

"She's mad at me?" Kim asks at one point, later saying, "I'm really confused how this narrative came into her head, like I couldn't have been more mindful."

Kourtney is later heard saying of Kim that their disagreement is not a misunderstanding, but rather, "It's who she is to her core."

The Kardashian-Jenner clan previously teased season three in a March 27 trailer. The upcoming season will be anything but "mild," "relaxing," or "serene." The synopsis for season three says, "The cameras return as Kris, Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, Kendall, and Kylie invite viewers back into their lives as they navigate motherhood, coparenting, and building their own empires." However, their bonds "will be tested" as tensions amongst the family arise.

Season three of "The Kardashians" will arrive just six months after the show concluded its second season in November 2022. Though the finale wasn't as explosive as viewers expected it to be, season two was filled with new revelations about the Kardashian family - some around Khloé's son, her second child whom she welcomed with ex Tristan Thompson via surrogate in August 2022. News of her son's arrival broke just weeks before "The Kardashians" premiered season two, with producers seemingly adding new confessional footage to touch on Khloé's reaction to the public reveal.

While season two of "The Kardashians" dug into Kourtney and Barker's nuptials and Kylie's second pregnancy, viewers will certainly be pleased to see the show address Kim's once-blossoming relationship with Pete Davidson, as the pair broke up in August 2022.

Read ahead for everything we know about the show's third season so far.

It's Clear That Demi Moore and Bruce Willis Have an Unbreakable Bond With Their Kids

When it comes to Hollywood exes, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis are some of the friendliest around. Though the couple split in 2000 after almost 12 years of marriage, they have remained incredibly close as they coparent their three daughters, Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah.

Bruce - who has since retired from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia - recently celebrated his 68th birthday alongside all five of his daughters. His wife, Emma Heming Willis, called her husband's recent birthday celebration "a good day" on Instagram Stories, per People, as aphasia doesn't always allow for good days.

And during the holidays this past year, the two brought their blended family together, which also includes Bruce and Emma's two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn. "We are FAMILY!! Getting into the holiday spirit!" Moore captioned an Instagram carousel of their gathering.

In addition to hitting the red carpet with their girls from time to time, their eldest daughter, Rumer, has been known to post some adorable throwback pictures of her family. Even though Moore and Bruce are no longer together, it's clear they will always have a special bond. See their sweetest family moments ahead.

Miles Morales and the Spider-Men Are Ready For an Adventure in the "Across the Spider-Verse" Poster

Image Source: YouTube user Sony Pictures Entertainment

The Spider-Verse is getting a massive expansion in "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," the animated sequel to the Oscar-winning film "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse."

Sony Pictures debuted the first official clip on Dec. 13, 2022, and in it, Shameik Moore's Miles Morales returns for an action-packed adventure that involves him and a whole lot of Spider-Men - also pictured in the film's poster that Sony released on April 26. This seems on par with what film producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller shared of the sequel at CinemaCon 2022, teasing that it's getting "way, way, way bigger."

The second official "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" trailer was released on April 4, 2023, teasing more shots of the movie's multitude of Spider-People and Miles's goal to control his own destiny. "Everyone keeps telling me how my story is supposed to go. Nah, I'm going to do my own thing," he says in the new three-minute preview.

In April 2022, Variety reported that during the annual CinemaCon convention, Lord and Miller showed a crowd of movie-theater owners an exclusive look at raw footage from the first 15 minutes of "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," but not before sharing some new details about it. According to them, the sequel will take place in six universes and feature a total of 240 characters, compared to "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse," which only has 40. The producers also announced the official title of its next film installment: "Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse."

Additionally, in a December 2022 interview with Total Film, Kemp Powers, one of the "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" directors, revealed that the main antagonist in the upcoming film and its follow-up will be a joke-villain character named The Spot (voiced by Jason Schwartzman).

Though there's much excitement around "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," fans are going to have to wait a little longer for the film to arrive. On April 20, 2022, Sony Pictures announced some changes to its summer 2023 theatrical-release calendar, as reported by Deadline, and one of the biggest updates is "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse"'s premiere date.

Part one of the follow-up to "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" was pushed to June 2023 from its October 2022 premiere date, which means part two has also been delayed, now slated to release on March 29, 2024.

Fans have been buzzing about "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" ever since the franchise's first film won best animated feature at the 2019 Oscars - a category first for a film from Sony Pictures Animation. So with expectations already high, people are especially curious about how much action will unfold in "Across the Spider-Verse" since the film had to be split into two parts.

In a December 2021 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Lord and Miller explained the decision to churn two films out of this particular franchise title. "Miles' story is an epic," the pair told the outlet. "We wrote what we thought the story needed to be, and to our surprise, we realized it was two movies instead of one."

Read ahead for more details on "Across the Spider-Verse," including the voice cast, plot, release date, and trailers.

In addition to Moore returning to voice Miles Morales, the forthcoming animated feature also includes Hailee Steinfeld as Spider-Gwen; "Atlanta" star Brian Tyree Henry and Luna Lauren Vélez as Miles's parents; "Moon Knight"'s Oscar Isaac as Miguel O'Hara, aka Spider-Man 2099; Jake Johnson as Peter Parker; Issa Rae as Jessica Drew, better known as Spider-Woman; and Daniel Kaluuya as Hobart "Hobie" Brown, aka Spider-Punk - a homeless teen who becomes a hero who defends the citizens of New York. Other voice actors include Schwartzman, Rachel Dratch, Greta Lee, Jorma Taccone, and Shea Whigham.

"Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" Plot

According to Marvel, the next chapter of the Spider-Verse saga will find Miles traveling across the multiverse, where he'll run into a team of Spider-People tasked with protecting its existence. However, when a new threat arises, Miles "finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must redefine what it means to be a hero so he can save the people he loves most."

"Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" Release Date

According to Sony Pictures's updated theatrical-release calendar, the studio announced that "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" has been pushed to June 2. The animated film was originally slated to hit theaters on Oct. 7, 2022.

Maria Menounos Reveals She's Expecting a Baby Girl: "We've Come Up With the Perfect Name"

Maria Menounos and her husband, Keven Undergaro, are going to be parents! On Feb. 7, a rep for the TV host, 44, and Undergaro, 55, confirmed to People that the couple are expecting their first child together via surrogate. "Just after a decade of trying everything, we are so grateful to the beautiful family helping us conceive our baby," Menounos told the outlet. "Keven, my dad and I are all beyond excited for this soul to come into our lives. What a blessing."

The mom-to-be also shared a heartfelt clip with People where she and her father, Constantinos Menounos, watch an ultrasound video together. "Oh my god," Maria says. "Guys, that's my baby. I love you."

On April 24, Menounos revealed that she and Undergaro are expecting a girl in an episode of her Heal Squad podcast. "We're very excited to announce we have a baby girl coming," she said. The mom-to-be also shared that they already have a name picked out.

"We've been thinking about names for years, 'cause as you may or may not know, this has been almost a 10-year journey for us," she explained. "We've thought about names forever, and I think we've come up with the perfect name for this baby." As for her last name, Menounos said the baby will have Undergaro "within her name," but will have Menounos as her surname.

Menounos, who first began IVF treatments over a decade ago, has opened up about the couple's fertility journey on numerous occasions. She previously shared an update in February 2022, telling People: "I definitely didn't think it was going to take this long. It's been years. We've used different services, different people. It's just been a very frustrating process."

According to People, Menounos and Undergaro - who wed during Fox's New Year's Eve broadcast in December 2017 - started considering surrogacy in 2018. They sought advice from friends like Kim Kardashian, who welcomed both her daughter Chicago and son Psalm via surrogates. "I was grateful that I had her to share and help me," said Menounos.

Menounos and Undergaro's baby girl is expected to arrive later this year.

Shiv's Drinking Raises Questions About Her Big "Succession" Secret

In the early moments of the fourth episode of "Succession"'s final season, which premiered on April 16, Shiv (Sarah Snook), Kendall (Jeremy Strong), and Roman (Kieran Culkin) deal with the aftermath of their dad Logan's sudden death. But Shiv gets a phone call that sheds new light on her emotional state this season - and makes the loss of her dad even more painful: she's pregnant. However, as the season continues with Shiv, some viewers have questions about her revelation and the current state of it.

Ahead, we break down everything we know about Shiv's secret pregnancy, including whether or not her estranged husband knows about it yet.

Is Shiv Pregnant in "Succession"?

Yes, as far as we know now, Shiv is pregnant. As she lies in bed in season four's fourth episode, she gets a call from her doctor, Dr. Sharon Hasford, who says, "I wanted to discuss your results and I didn't know, but I thought you would want the chance to be aware, if you're up to it." Shiv confirms it's OK to reveal.

"I won't draw it out. It's a good result," the doctor adds. "The journey we went on with the amniocentesis after what the blood test showed us, everything looks healthy." An amniocentesis is done to test a baby for certain health conditions. The doctor checks that Shiv is "still well," and Shiv confirms she hasn't had any more spotting or bleeding. Shiv's doctor then says there's nothing she should be concerned about and that her office will reach out to make the appointment for the 20-week scan.

So Shiv is, indeed, expecting. That seems to explain some of her absences in the season's early episodes, where her brothers try to figure out what she's getting up to that she doesn't want them to know about. Near the end of the episode, Shiv trips and falls in her dad's apartment, but we don't find out in the episode if that had any consequence for her pregnancy. However, that's not the only safety concern viewers have about Shiv.

In episode five, which premiered on April 23, Shiv is seen drinking throughout as her brothers try to close their big deal with Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård). Toward the end of it, Shiv noticeably has a drink in her hand as Matsson confides in her about the deal. At one point, he even offers her a bump of cocaine, which Shiv grabs, though we don't physically see her snort it. Elsewhere in the episode, she sips a glass of Champagne after the Roy siblings accept Matsson's new offer.

Right now, it's unclear what this means for Shiv's pregnancy, as some viewers believe she may have terminated it sometime between episodes four and five. But it looks like we'll just have to wait and see how the rest of the season plays out to find out her status.

Does Tom Know Shiv Is Pregnant?

Shiv and Tom (Matthew Macfadyen) are in the middle of a brutal divorce. Based on their conversations in the latest episodes of season four - most of which are painfully stilted - it does not seem Shiv has told Tom about her pregnancy, instead keeping it a secret from him and everyone else.

Is Tom the Father of Shiv's Baby?

We don't know yet if Tom is the father of Shiv's baby. Shiv seems to be about halfway through her pregnancy but it calls to question if she was already pregnant when she attended her mother's wedding at the end of last season. "Succession" never said exactly when the wedding took place but it appeared to be early summer, which means Shiv could have recently learned that she was pregnant or that she found out immediately after returning from the wedding.

Though Tom and Shiv technically had an open relationship, it doesn't seem like Shiv was sleeping with anyone else at the time, which would make Tom the father. It's also possible they slept together after the wedding when they began separating, or Shiv could have also had a one-night stand leading to her pregnancy in the days after they separated. Viewers will have to wait and see.

Whatever happens, the season three finale makes it seem like this plot point has been in the works for a while. During the episode, Shiv has a conversation with her mother, Lady Caroline (Harriet Walter), about motherhood, and Caroline tells her, "You made the right decision. Some people just aren't made to be mothers." Ouch.

New episodes of "Succession" premiere Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.

Kim Kardashian Attends Usher Concert Alongside Lukas Gage and Chris Appleton

Kim Kardashian finally made it to see Usher on Saturday - and this time she had Chris Appleton, Lukas Gage, and her friend Allison Statter by her side. Back in October, Khloé Kardashian tried to surprise her big sister with a trip to see the "Love in This Club" singer in concert in Las Vegas for her 42nd birthday. Sadly, they ultimately missed the concert when their plane was forced to land due to bad weather, as reported by People.

The Skims founder and her pals ended up eating at In-N-Out Burger instead, but this time around she made it to the show without any hiccups. Kim chronicled her night out with her friends Appleton and Gage, who are reportedly engaged, and Statter on her Instagram Story. The foursome sang their hearts out throughout the evening, and at one point Usher even came down to serenade the reality star and her friends.

In one video, the "My Boo" singer comes over to Kim's group and begins singing "Superstar," before pausing to give her a shoutout. "What up Kim, you made it," he said. It was hard to tell who was more excited by the singer's stop by their section: Kim or Appleton and Gage. The new couple have been spending lots of time together lately, but seeing Usher in concert appeared to be a highlight for the guys.

As she was jamming to Usher and cheering on Teyana Taylor, Kim shared that she may be making a return trip to see the Vegas show again soon. "Finally made it to see @usher but my girls are mad they aren't here soooo I just have to come back with them ASAP," she wrote over one video of her, Gage, and Appleton dancing.

For his part, Usher previously reached out to Kim to invite her to another concert after her birthday trip fail. "Happy birthday Kim! I saw the post, I hate that you didn't make it to the show last night. But listen, open arms to you, whenever you want to come," he shared on his Instagram Story at the time.

Thankfully, Kim finally made it (even though Khloé is still waiting on her girls' night out). Check out the gallery ahead to see photos of Kim, Gage, and Appleton living it up at Usher's show.

Jessica Simpson knows ensuring the Earth's future is the same as ensuring her kids' future. On April 22, the fashion designer shared a carousel of photos on Instagram featuring her adorable family alongside a caption reminding her followers why Earth Day is so important. "HEART and EARTH…same letters. Just sayin' 🤍🌎🌍🌏," she captioned her post.

Simpson's carousel included seven photos featuring her three children with husband Eric Johnson: Maxwell (10), Ace (9), and Birdie (4). In the first photo, the "With You" singer poses with her oldest daughter in front of some hay bails. The sweet photo reveals just how grown up the mom of three's oldest has gotten - she appears to be almost as tall as her mom!

Other photos included in the post feature Birdie enjoying some beach time with her dad, Ace posing for a family shot with his sisters, and Maxwell pulling a duck face while her mom and brother smile. In her Instagram Stories, Simpson also noted that Birdie was rocking a dress from her Jessica Simpson clothing line during her beach fun day.

The '00s pop star's latest family post comes just a few weeks after her youngest, Birdie, turned 4. On March 23, she celebrated her daughter's special day with a tribute on Instagram.

"Birdie Mae Johnson is 4!!!" she captioned a collection of photos featuring Birdie. "This adorable wonder of a unicorn kiddo illuminates every color in the rainbow…her favorite color…Birdie magically makes us laugh AT ALL TIMES capturing attention from EVERYONE! She is uniquely and effortlessly herself. This little lady celebrates and twirls through her life in tutus with a pure unique understanding in her soul of glitter sparkles. We love her SO VERY MUCH and she knows it. Birdie is a symphony of STARDUST and born to SHINE. I smiled the entire time writing this because even when she isn't home, I feel her presence glowing inside of me. Bird puts the HAPPY to the BIRTHDAY."
