“I knew from the beginning that, all women were going to wear black today to celebrate women, and to stand up for women’s equality and girl power. So, I’m obviously all into that and I want to be part of it,” Klum told InStyle.

“So, it wasn’t a hard choice to pick black even though I would’ve picked red if someone would’ve asked me, I would’ve made all the women to wear red because I think it is the strongest color. For me, it’s the most powerful color and it means love and all that at the same time. But I guess we’ll all look good in black, right.”

Despite feeling red a little more than black, she still loved the dark dress that she wore.

“I just fell in love with this dress because I liked that it’s short in the front and long in the back so that it was fun at the same time,” she said.

We have to agree with her there.

While losing weight after a pregnancy is a struggle for any new mom, the pressure to return to one’s pre-baby weight is no doubt amplified in Hollywood.

No one knows this better than actress Blake Lively, who has given birth to two children in the past three years and starred in four (going on seven) films in the same period of time.

After her first pregnancy with daughter James, Lively miraculously regained her six-pack in a few short months ahead of production on The Shallows (2016). Though it seems like movie magic, in reality, Blake worked incredibly hard to get back in shape.

The 30-year-old and her trainer Don Saladino (whom she shares with husband Ryan Reynolds), focuses on strength training as opposed to cardio. Pre-production on The Shallows, Lively increased her training sessions from one to two times a week to five or six. “We would do an upper body workout Monday, lower body Tuesday. Wednesday was a playful pool workout where she would do laps,” Saladino explained. “Thursday was upper body, Friday lower body, and Saturday we were focusing on the accessory movers: the arms, the shoulders.”

After Lively gave birth to her and Reynolds’s second child in fall 2016, however, the Gossip Girl alum took a more leisurely (though no doubt hardcore) approach to dropping her baby weight.

On Monday, Blake shared a photo of her and her trainer and thanked Saladino for pushing her. She also commended herself for her impressive efforts.

“Turns out you can’t lose the 61 lbs you gained during pregnancy by just scrolling through instagram and wondering why you don’t look like all the bikini models,” the mother of two joked. “Thanks @donsaladino for kickin my A double S into shape. 10 months to gain, 14 months to lose. Feeling very proud .”

New York Fashion Week is upon us, as designers showcase their fall/winter ’18 collections on the season’s hottest models. But it’s not just the runways where we’re getting our outfit inspiration—some of the hottest new fashions are often made on the streets. So when Kendall Jenner and Kaia Gerber stepped out back-to-back in full floral looks, we knew this is one trend the industry would soon get behind.

While both models rocked head-to-toe floral, they demoed how versatile the pattern can actually be. Jenner’s fierce look could easily transition to the boardroom, while Gerber’s outfit could fit right in at a skate park. The difference is in the materials—and a few choice accessories.

Jenner looked ultra polished in a tailored blazer and trousers covered in pink and black peonies. She tied it together with an orange Off-White belt and matching pointed-toe stilettos, literally bringing the pattern down to her feet.

Kaia, on the other hand, used her accessories, like Nike sneakers, to tone down her look. While she too wore a matching floral printed jacket and pants, a crop top and a flash of abs made it less than workwear-appropriate. High-top sneaks just added to her off-duty vibe.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the 16-year-old in full florals: Gerber walked Moschino’s runway last year looking like a real-life bouquet (above). Safe to say this new look is just a tad more practical.

Who said florals can’t be edgy?

Beyoncé Knowles-Carter will voice Nala, Chiwetel Ejiofor will play the villainous Scar and Alfre Woodard will bring Simba’s mom Sarabi to life, while James Earl Jones will return as Simba’s father, Mufasa, who he voiced in the original 1994 animated classic.

Disney announced the John Favreau-directed project in September, after his update of The Jungle Book became a box office and critical hit. (A sequel is already in the works.) As with that film, the new Lion King is expected to use performance-capture technology and computer-generated imagery to bring its animal characters to life. It will also include songs from the original movie.

John Oliver will voice the sassy Zazu, Seth Rogen will play the warthog Pumbaa and Billy Eichner will play his meekrat friend Timon. Keegan-Michael Key is also joining the cast as one of the evil hyenas.

The Lion King will hit theaters in July 19, 2019.

The 60th annual Grammy Awards, hosted by James Corden, were broadcast live on CBS from Madison Square Garden in New York City.

DES MOINES — 

A top aide to Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer in Iowa has privately offered campaign contributions to local politicians in exchange for endorsing his White House bid, according to multiple people with direct knowledge of the conversations.

The overtures from Pat Murphy, a former state House speaker who is serving as a top advisor on Steyer’s Iowa campaign, aren’t illegal — though payments for endorsements would violate campaign finance laws if not disclosed. There’s no evidence that any Iowans accepted the offer or received contributions from Steyer’s campaign as compensation for their backing.

But the proposals could revive criticism that the billionaire Steyer is trying to buy his way into the White House. Several state lawmakers and political candidates said they were surprised Steyer’s campaign would think he could buy their support.

Tom Courtney, a former Democratic state senator from southeastern Iowa who’s running for reelection to his old seat, told the Associated Press the financial offer “left a bad taste in my mouth.”

Murphy said concerns about his outreach were the result of a “miscommunication.” Alberto Lammers, Steyer’s campaign press secretary, said Murphy was not authorized to make the offers and that the campaign leadership outside of Iowa was unaware that he was doing so until the issue was raised by the AP.

Courtney declined to name Murphy as the Steyer aide who made the offer, but several other local politicians said they received similar propositions, and all confirmed the proposal came from Murphy himself. Most requested anonymity to speak freely about the issue. Another, Iowa state Rep. Karin Derry, said Murphy didn’t explicitly offer a specific dollar amount, but made it clear Derry would receive financial support if she backed Steyer.

“It was presented more as, he has provided financial support to other down-ballot candidates who’ve endorsed him, and could do the same for you,” she said.

Courtney described a similar interaction with Steyer’s campaign.

“‘Tom, I know you’re running for Senate. I’m working for Tom Steyer,’” Courtney recalled hearing from the aide. “‘Now you know how this works….’ He said, ‘You help them, and they’ll help you.’

“I said, ‘It wouldn’t matter if you’re talking monetary, there’s no amount,’” Courtney continued. “I don’t do that kind of thing.”

Lammers, Steyer’s campaign press secretary, said the candidate hasn’t made any individual contributions to local officials in Iowa and won’t be making any this year. In an email, Lammers said Steyer’s endorsements “are earned because of Tom’s campaign message,” and distanced the candidate from Murphy.

“Our campaign policy is clear that we will not engage in this kind of activity, and anyone who does is not speaking for the campaign or does not know our policy,” Lammers said.

In a separate statement, Murphy said that “as a former legislator, I know how tricky the endorsement process can be for folks in Iowa. It was never my intention to make my former colleagues uncomfortable, and I apologize for any miscommunication on my part.”

The overtures do not appear to have made much of a difference for Steyer. Aside from Murphy’s support, Steyer has received the endorsement of just one Iowan since entering the race in July — that of former state Rep. Roger Thomas.

Thomas did not respond to phone calls, but in a statement provided by the campaign he said that he endorsed Steyer “because he’s the outsider who can deliver for Iowans on the issues that matter most: getting corporate corruption out of our politics and putting forth a rural agenda that revitalizes communities across Iowa.”

Thomas’ endorsement was issued in October after the close of the most recent campaign finance reporting period, which ended Sept. 30. The disclosure Steyer filed offers no indication that he directly gave Thomas any money.

Experts say a campaign could violate campaign finance laws if they don’t disclose payments for endorsements.

“It’s legal if you disclose a payment for an endorsement on your campaign finance report,” said Adav Noti, a former Federal Election Commission attorney who now works for the nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center in Washington. But, he added, “it would be unlawful if you don’t disclose it, or you disclose it but try to hide who the recipient is, or try to hide what that purpose was.”

A trio of former Ron Paul aides were charged and convicted in court in 2016 over similar issues during the 2012 Iowa Republican caucus campaign. Campaign chairman Jesse Benton, campaign manager John Tate and deputy campaign manager Dimitri Kesari were found guilty in 2016 of charges related to arranging and concealing payments for then-Iowa state Sen. Kent Sorenson, who switched his support from then-Rep. Michele Bachmann to Paul just six days before the Iowa caucuses. Sorenson served 15 months in jail for his role in the scheme.

It’s unclear whether Murphy could face a similar legal complaint, but the issue could revive scrutiny of how Steyer is deploying his financial resources. The billionaire businessman built his fortune in banking and investment management before turning to politics, and though he’s never held public office he invested tens of millions of dollars in political activism and electoral politics before launching his presidential bid this year. Prior to his presidential run, Steyer’s most recent focus was a multimillion-dollar pro-impeachment campaign, and as the U.S. House takes up the issue, he’s argued he’s put it on the national agenda.

Steyer has largely self-funded his presidential campaign, spending $47.6 million of his own money in the first three months since launching his bid, much of that on online fundraising and advertising. Steyer has qualified for the November debate, but he remains at the back of the pack in early-state and national polls.

NEW YORK — 

A New York judge ordered President Trump to pay $2 million to settle a lawsuit alleging he misused his charitable foundation to further his political and business interests.

Judge Saliann Scarpulla also signed off on an agreement Thursday to close the Trump Foundation and distribute about $1.7 million in remaining funds to other nonprofit groups.

A request for comment was emailed to Trump’s lawyer.

New York’s attorney general filed a lawsuit last year alleging Trump and his family illegally operated the foundation as an extension of his businesses and his presidential campaign.

Atty. Gen. Letitia James had been seeking about $2.8 million in restitution from the president. Scarpulla cut that amount to $2 million.

Foundation lawyers have previously said the lawsuit is politically motivated.

WASHINGTON — 

House impeachment investigators have released another transcript in the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump.

The testimony released Thursday is from George Kent, a career official at the State Department. He testified that he was told to “lay low” on Ukraine policy as the Trump administration, and the president’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, were interacting with Ukraine outside of traditional foreign policy channels.

House investigators are pushing out key transcripts from hours of closed-door interviews in the impeachment inquiry as they prepare for public sessions with witnesses next week.

Kent also raised concerns about the Trump administration’s recall of its Ukraine ambassador, Marie Yovanovitch.

Kent, Yovanovitch and diplomat William Taylor are expected to appear in the public sessions.

OAKLAND — 

The Chargers can recall being showered by debris, doused with beer and enveloped by the wafting smell of weed.

Now, they have the opportunity to play one final time in the home of the Oakland Raiders, in a game both teams desperately need — a game matching longtime AFC West rivals.

It’s also a game played at night, giving the fans ample time to elevate their levels of both excitement and blood-alcohol.

“It’ll be awesome,” Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers said. “The aura of what that place has meant over the years will be alive, for sure.”

The Raiders (4-4) will be moving to Las Vegas after the season, meaning the game Thursday night will be Rivers’ farewell to this place, unless the teams should meet in the playoffs.

It will serve as a fitting bookend for him, his first career start coming here on Sept. 11, 2006.

The Chargers (4-5) won that Monday night 27-0, with Rivers completing eight of 11 pass attempts for 108 yards and a touchdown — one of his least productive outings.

“Only threw it 11 times,” Rivers recalled this week. “I think I can talk [interim offensive coordinator] Shane [Steichen] into more than 11 attempts on Thursday.”

This will be Rivers’ 14th career start in a facility that — during his time in the NFL — has gone from being called McAfee Coliseum to Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum to Overstock.com Coliseum to O.co Coliseum to Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum again to, reportedly, RingCentral Coliseum.

Although many media outlets are calling the stadium RingCentral, official communications from the Raiders continue to use the Oakland-Alameda County name when referring to their home.

Despite the signage out front changing over the years, the atmosphere inside has remained consistent. And comical. And, perhaps in some cases, criminal.

“Every game’s like Halloween,” Chargers coach Anthony Lynn said. “A lot of energy. A lot of excitement. A good place to go play. I’m going to miss it, no doubt.”

As a player, Lynn said he remembers being hit by a battery thrown from the stands. Before confirming that he was, in fact, wearing his helmet at the time, Lynn was asked what type of battery.

“Double-A,” he answered. “It was not a car battery.”

Chargers defensive lineman Damion Square said he also was pelted by a battery at the Coliseum, on another Thursday night in 2015. It apparently didn’t matter to the person firing the object that it was Christmas Eve.

Or maybe it did. Square said his battery was a smaller triple-A type. It deflected off his helmet.

“The noise made my ears ring for two series,” he said. “It truly sounded like someone hit my helmet with a bell. The noise was just crazy. I don’t think I was singled out, but it did feel like it came from about 50 yards away.”

Veteran left tackle Russell Okung was more fortunate than Lynn and Square. The egg that someone whipped in his direction outside the Coliseum missed. The incident came during Okung’s rookie season, when he was playing with Seattle. It was Halloween night 2010.

“One, how did you get the egg?” Okung remembered thinking at the time. “And you really held it that long to be able to throw it at me? It was insane. It was definitely a testament to who they are as a fan base. They’re rabid. They’re crazy and they love their team.”

The fans promise to be boisterous and unforgiving Thursday, which will be nothing new to a Chargers team that, at times over the past three seasons, has had to resort to using a silent count at home.

On Sunday, Dignity Health Sports Park was bustling with Green Bay rooters, every one of them quieted when the Chargers took the opening kickoff and assembled a 15-play, 84-yard drive that ate up more than eight minutes.

The possession netted only three points, but the mood it established was worth much more as the Chargers went on to beat the favored Packers handily, 26-11.

“It will be a crazy atmosphere for them,” running back Melvin Gordon said of the fans in Oakland. “We gotta go in there and silence some noise.”

The winner will sit second to Kansas City in the division and remain undeniably in wild-card contention in an AFC that has been accommodating to playoff-hopeful teams that have struggled.

The Chargers lost five of six games during one stretch but now have back-to-back victories that have basically salvaged their season — at least for another week.

They are coming off their most complete performance in months, a triumph featuring a dominant defense and an offense that rediscovered its run-pass balance.

“I don’t think it’s something like, ‘Oh, we figured it out. So we’re going to look like that for the rest of the year,’ ” Rivers said. “It’s not that easy.

“It’s tough to be consistent in this league. The teams that are, end up … we know where they end up late in December and January. We’re striving to get there.”

The Chargers’ pursuit continues Thursday, with a November night in a painted-up and angry Black Hole looking to consume them.

The New York Giants and Jets, who play each other Sunday in their shared stadium, can provide a blueprint — or maybe greenprint — for the Rams and Chargers, who next fall will move into their $5-billion football palace, SoFi Stadium in Inglewood.

Giants-Jets doesn’t happen often in the regular season. It’s the 14^th time the teams have met, other than exhibition games, and the third time since MetLife Stadium opened in 2010.

The teams are the oddest New York roommates since Felix and Oscar, even though their home is actually across the Hudson in East Rutherford, N.J. At times, the friction between the organizations has been palpable, especially when the Jets were tenants at Giants Stadium from 1984-2009.

“The Giants organization was much more corporate, much more buttoned-up,” said kicker Jay Feely, who played two seasons for both the Giants and Jets. “Jets, whether it was because of the stadium or whatever, there was always this mentality that you were kind of the little brother. You’re always fighting against that mentality, and it carried over into the dynamics of the organizations themselves.”

That has changed since the teams moved into their current home, where the clubs have split all stadium costs down the middle. What often felt like an inferiority complex has softened over the years.

The Rams and Chargers are entering choppy waters that won’t always be easy to navigate. Their arrangement is similar to the Jets and Giants at the old stadium, because the Inglewood stadium would not have happened without Kroenke, who in 2016 moved the Rams from St. Louis.

This venue is Kroenke’s legacy, the Stan Canyon. The Chargers are tenants.

In a deal hammered out by the NFL and Kroenke, the Chargers pay $1 annually in rent, and bring with them 10 games per season, a $200-million league loan, and whatever they can raise in seat-license sales. In exchange, the Chargers get a glistening new place to call home, and share in a portion of stadium sponsorships and annual suite payments.

It’s Kroenke who is responsible for construction costs, and pitches in an identical loan from the league as well as Rams seat-license sales. Besides the stadium money on a Chargers game day, and aforementioned share of sponsorships and suites, Kroenke receives all other revenue generated by the 298-acre site throughout the year.

In their years of contemplating a move north to Los Angeles, the Chargers repeatedly voiced a concern: If they were to share a new home, they wouldn’t want to be the Jets playing in Giants Stadium. And for good reason. The Jets unquestionably felt like second-class citizens in a place where “Giants Stadium” was printed on their tickets, and the team bus parked under a sign that read the same. The Jets referred to the place as The Meadowlands, but the name never really stuck. The Giants’ locker room was bigger and more plush.

“Mr. Hess tried to do everything he could,” former Jets quarterback Ken O’Brien said of the late Leon Hess, oil magnate and owner of the Jets at the time. “He put up his Hess signs in the end zone and all throughout the stadium, but it still pretty obviously belonged to the Giants. They had been there first and played there. It was what it was.”

Like O’Brien, a lot of the other Jets players learned to block it out and just play.

“Although the stadium was blue, it didn’t really register like that to me,” said former USC and Jets star Keyshawn Johnson, now an ESPN analyst. “Because a field’s a field. Everybody that was inside the stadium was Jet fans, and we had our own facility. So we didn’t share practice facilities with the Giants, we just shared a stadium, as if we were going to a neutral site.”

As part of the agreement between the Rams and the Chargers, both teams will have identical locker rooms — and separate and identical visiting-team locker rooms — as well as identical owner’s suites. The Rams will have the east sideline on game day, and the Chargers will have the west, each team nearest to its locker room.

Because all the advertising will be digital at SoFi Stadium, a flip of the switch will transform the place from Rams to Chargers.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell probably was especially sensitive when helping craft the arrangement because he started his career at the league as an intern with the Jets. He understands how it feels to be the other team.

Without question, the Jets were the other team. But sometimes they got their day in the sun. Those days came when the Jets played host to the Giants, and the stadium was a roiling sea of green.

“I remember running out of the tunnel at our own stadium, and everything is green, people are booing at you,” former Giants tight end Brian Saxton recalled. “Wait a minute … Oh, that’s right, it’s a Jet home game. It’s like when you were a kid and you have family coming in for the holidays, and your parents kick you out of your room. So now you’re in a sleeping bag on the floor. So you’re home, but you’re not at home at your home.”

The Giants must have felt that way on Christmas Eve in 2011, the first time they faced each other in their new stadium. It was a Jets home game, so, to make the place more comfortable for them, team employees used black curtains to cover a mural of the Lombardi Trophies outside the Giants’ locker room.

The Giants would have none of that and moved the curtains aside. The Jets came into that game with some hope of making the playoffs. However, the Giants broke their spirit with a 99-yard touchdown by receiver Victor Cruz, the highlight of a 35-24 victory, and the Jets haven’t been a playoff contender since.

Lots of people remember the small-minded gesture by the Jets, and the devastating response by the Giants, who went on to collect their fourth Super Bowl victory.

Petty, and the heartbreakers.
