UNCOVER GIRL

Zendaya, actress, singer, model and professional industry event attendee is on the press tour of her life. There's Dune, of course, and Challengers (the s3xy new tennis film where she plays a Serena Williams-type and has 3somes), in honor of which she has recommitted to raising the red carpet-bar. And we're gonna talk about it. And fashion. And sticky situations with stylist Law Roach. And...

Pour yourself a pumptini, we're going deep with Tom Sandoval. The Vanderpump Rules sensation found himself at the center of one of reality television's biggest-ever scandals exactly one year ago, and now he is on the path to redemption with an absolutely enormous feature in the New York Times that does not leave much about Tom or his PR team to the imagination. This is a must-listen, a mus...

The Olsen Twins are the heart and soul of this podcast, and this point they're only 17 and riding the high of heading up a billion-dollar corporation. They talk boys, paparazzi and mini-skirts while sipping on smoothies and skirt-skirting around LA in matching Range Rovers. This would be one of their last-ever in-depth profiles, discussing their last-ever movie, New York Minute. We love them,...

In honor of the BAFTAs, Oscars and Barbie's continued reign, we're revisiting one of our most iconic profiles. Margot Robbie is 26, fresh off a slew of blockbusters, and, as we discover, not ready at all for the fame that comes with being a Hollywood hit. This may be our most traditional profile yet (and by that we mean the pre-Me Too male gaze is alive and thriving).  Let's meet Margo...

It's time to let it burn, baby. 20 years ago exactly, Usher is 25-years-old with the number one song in the world ("Yeah!"). He's also a nationwide obsession as one of the 'sexiest men' ever in RnB, and that has brought a whole lot of girl trouble. We have so much life advice incoming from this man, and we're so excited for you to hear it firsthand — come with us as we...

Oh time, you gorgeous flat circle. Amid an iconic Nicki Minaj beef, we are revisiting her others (this time with both Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus). It's 2015, Nicki Minaj is at her peak "Anaconda" powers, navigating a beef between her boyfriend Meek Mill and bestie Drake, and generally being scary as hell. This is a very nuanced portrait by friend of (UN)COVER GIRL Vanessa Grigoriadis...

The UG Oscar nominee trend continues with our favorite Canadian friend and tunnel-lover (more on that later), Mr. Ryan Gosling. We talk all things Barbie, The Notebook, the rampant objectification of Ryan in the 2010s and his life now with Eva Mendes. There's also a lot, LOT of wisdom in here in case your new years resolution was "realizing things." We can't wait for you to listen...

This girl is...everything to us. A mother, sister, friend and daughter and somehow totally unpretentious and likeable despite years in the spotlight. We get into her childhood anxiety, teenage run-in with Louis C.K. and Jonah Hill's impression of her. We drink sake and go on a hike for which she inexplicably where's SKINNY JEANS. This will also be an ad for Microsoft Powerpoint. On a perso...

Oh, Timo-tay. Our boy is ~technically~ on top of the world after starring in some of the biggest movies in the world, but mostly he's throwing things against the wall (literally) alone in Woodstock. It's been a huge two years since  Call Me By Your Name  changed his life forever, and he is dealing with being papped mid-makeout, famous friends and why awards season is "dark energy."...

We're gonna getcha good with this one. Shania is 33 and on top of the world — and everyone wants to take her down. From music critics who argue she's not who she says she is, to Nashville who resents her pop crossover, no one likes to see a woman win. We go deep into her childhood trauma (which is extensive) and husband's famous affair, while contemplating leaving it all behind to move...

The only way to kick off 2024 is to wave goodbye to 2023 with none other than TIME's person of the year: Taylor Swift. This is an absolute behemoth of a profile with plenty of juicy revelations and Taylor coming for the throat of those who have wronged her (hell hath no wrath like a scorned Swift!). Hear firsthand about her years in hiding, Kim K feud and the deal that spurned many, many Taylo...

At long last, we present: the hottest cover of all time. In 2007, Zac Efron was 19 and following up his breakout role inHigh School Musical with Hairspray and Seventeen Again — it was the roll-out of the century, and a massive cultural shift. One in three girls were estimated to have his poster, and he was furiously denying a relationship with his co-star. We go deep on body image, hard-learned le...

Tyra Banks has never been better. The supermodel made America's Next Top Model an unprecedented success, and now, she's ready to fill Oprah's shoes as the darling of daytime television. But, the cracks are starting to show. She's working 12-hour days, body-shaming her contestants and . Let's get deep into financial freedom, and what it takes to be – and stay – on top. Co-hosted...

After a slew of hits like 'What a Girl Wants,' 'She's the Man' and 'Easy A,' Amanda Bynes retired from acting at age 24...devastating the nation. This is one of the only interviews she gave in the years since, taking former PAPER editor Abby Schreiber around her fashion school and talking Chatting Tatum, substance abuse and *those* tweets. This one has so, so many revel...

We're strolling around NYC with Jacob Elordi to the soundtrack of girlish screams and by god is it invigorating. Jacob is off the back of two massive releases, 'Priscilla' and 'Saltburn,' and the definitive prince of young Hollywood. Come for his thoughts on Austin Butler's Elvis, what he really said about 'The Kissing Booth' and the origin story of his many, many d...

You just got Punk'd, baby. It's 2003 and Ashton Kutcher is hot, dangerous and tearing up Hollywood. He's best friends with P. Diddy, hitting on Jen Anniston in front of Brad and terrorizing the young, rich and famous with one of the biggest MTV shows of all time. Stay tuned for a real, twisted True Hollywood Story, and get a closer look at Ashton Kutcher. Co-hosted by Ivana Rihter. htt...

Britney is back...in more ways than one. In our first repeat celebrity, we go back to Britney's breakout era with one of her earliest Rolling Stone cover stories — one of two in 2001 – she's 19, madly in love with Justin and more in control of her career than ever before. It's the perfect accompaniment and prequel to her recent memoir, The Woman In Me , which we are so excited to furth...

Pull on your latex gloves and get out your Blackberry, this week we are covering the one and only Naomi Campbell. Learn how the most iconic (??) supermodel of all time of all time gets it done, including her decades of anti-racism activism, assault charges, and a cleanliness obsession that rivals none. You gotta listen. Co-hosted by Ivana Rihter. Subscribe to our Patreon HERE Follow us on Instagra...

It's 2009, and Blake Lively is on top of the world — or the Upper East Side, at least. She is blonde, beautiful and in the hottest show on the CW, which makes sense considering she was also a cheerleader and class president. Come with us to learn more about the luckiest girl to ever live. Co-hosted by Ivana Rihter. https://www.vogue.com/article/blake-lively-east-side-story Subscribe to our Pat...

Isolate with us and Robert Pattinson, who is losing his mind in quarantine. He has an idea for a fast food pasta business, has no idea what his new movie Tenet is actually about and has decided Twilight is "art-house cinema." He might be our favorite celebrity, ever. As a special treat, Kristen Stegemoeller, writer and host of astrology-pop culture podcast (Club Cosmos Radio) joins us to r...

TW: eating disorders, domestic violence  These are the confessions of a teenage movie queen. Coming off the release of four banging teen flicks and two albums, 19-year-old Lindsay Lohan should've been on top of the world in 2006...and yet. She's living in the Chateau Marmont, overcoming kidney failure, her father's in jail and openly admitted to drug use. The hardest part of it all? Wr...

Today, is a departure for us: Ivana goes all the way back to her roots (to Conde Nast), specifically, to discuss beauty (a subject Ivana once covered vehemently). While this is not a cover story, it is one of the most famous profiles to be published this year so far. So, we had to do it.  Meet Gwen Stefani, a very famous ~white~ woman...or is she? Listen on. Co-hosted by Ivana Rihter. https://www....

It's 2003 – a year that saw the premiere of 'The OC,' 'ANTM' as well as the Olsen Twin's and Hilary Duff together on a magazine cover – and 50 Cent has the best-selling album. The New York gangster rapper is hot, dangerous and hunted (literally, he has at least three contract killers after him right now). Come with us to Jamaica, Queens to meet the most resilient man (maybe...

Prepare to dive into the icy blue eyes of Bradley Cooper. Famed writer Taffy Brodesser-Akner (the brains behind of Fleishman is in Trouble and every crazy profile you know) tries to uncover all the secrets of the 'A Star is Born' actor-director and he is absolutely not having it. Like at all. It's a tale as old as time, the tug-of-war between an interviewer who wants it all and the tal...

Triple-X: ALERT. John Mayer is fresh off a breakup with Jen Anniston and letting it all hang out. We're talking m*ast*rbation, $exual napalm and so much more. You know it, you've requested it, and now we're finally delivering. To reiterate: very not, not safe for work (or kids, depending on how you're raising them). Regardless, it's a roaring good time. Co-hosted by Ivana Rihte...
