After a
to its fourth season, Bachelor In Paradise has released the first trailer for the upcoming season, and it has people feeling all kinds of feelings. The trailer, which premiered on People, opens with a dramatic voiceover. “The sun had almost set. Summer was almost ruined. Paradise was almost lost,” the voiceover says, as tweets from disappointed fans flash on the screen. “Until it wasn’t.” Then, the preview goes on to show fans celebrating the series’ return. While many are indeed excited for the show’s comeback, some fans feel that the tone of the trailer is a little too quippy considering the severity of the initial allegations (which investigations cleared). “Am I the only one feeling uneasy about the Bella Thorne finally responded to those Scott Disick rumors.
wasn’t talking about Disick when claiming Cannes wasn’t for her, but now, in a new interview on The Jenny McCarthy Show on SiriusXM, Thorne clears up once and for all what did — or rather, didn’t — happen with the two. “We were never involved sexually,” Thorne said, after being asked if the two were “still involved.” Thorne, of course, shouldn’t have to comment at all if she chooses not to, but this answer is as clear as it gets.

Back in January, we introduced you to a feel-good cause to inspire your New Year's resolution: a walking challenge to help raise funds for the amazing cancer fighters at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I took part in the challenge with the Brit + Co team and ended up walking 105+ miles in January — it was awesome.
This spring, there's a new challenge on the horizon, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Big Climb. The ask: On May 15, 2021, you can step up to take cancer down by committing to climb 1,311 steps, walking 3.2 miles, or doing 440 chair step-ups at home as part of the Big Climb. If you need some motivation to bring movement back into your daily routine — look no further!
As always, it's free to sign up, but climbers are encouraged to set a fundraising goal to help beat cancer. We'll be organizing another Brit + Co team to step up, and I hope you'll join us too! Keep scrolling for a peek at where I'll be completing the challenge in my Los Angeles neighborhood around the hidden Silver Lake Stairs. Happy climbing!
Never underestimate the power of an accountability buddy! I asked my in-laws, my partner, and a few friends to join me so we can keep each other motivated and accountable in completing the challenge — virtual high-fives all around! Also, my dog Fox is a great climber, too.
An aesthetically pleasing backdrop is a huge motivator for me! I'm fortunate to have all sorts of painted steps around my neighborhood to keep the challenge interesting, but you can also keep cool inside with at-home chair step-ups.
Don't forget to share your progress on social — #BigClimb!
Feel free to break the challenge up if you need to by tackling half the distance in the AM and half at sunset. Here's me 1,311 steps later and ready for a break — but, think I earned this one!
