Chrissy Teigen is calming down.

The Star Search judge, who quit alcohol in 2021 before admitting last year that she had "let it back" into her life, opened up about her sobriety journey on Jan. 27. She revealed that it has been 52 days since her last drink.

"After being sober for a little over a year, I went back to drinking," Chrissy, who has four children with husband John Legend, wrote in an Instagram post. "I promised myself it would be 'mindful.' I wanted to be able to enjoy a glass of wine on a date night with my husband, "to be able to toast birthdays."

However, the 40-year-old said that was her "first problem" because what was an isolated dinner drink "went from 6pm to 5, to 4, to aw hell, it’s lunch, why not."

"When it got to 11am, I was like, 'Oh fuck, here we go again,'" Chrissy recalled. "And God, I felt like shit."

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has confirmed that Sydney Sweeney did not receive authorization to access or decorate the Hollywood sign after the actor staged a late night promotional stunt involving bras draped across the landmark. The incident, first reported by the Los Angeles Times, has drawn renewed attention to how celebrities use public symbols for commercial campaigns.

According to the report, Sweeney and a small crew traveled into the Hollywood Hills under cover of darkness and strung together bras, hanging them over several letters of the sign. The action was part of a marketing push for a new women's underwear brand. Sweeney later shared video footage of the operation on Instagram, showing the group loading a van with garments before hiking to the site and installing the display.

Nicki Minaj has continued to publicly align herself with U.S. President Donald Trump, dismissing criticism from fans and critics while reinforcing her support for his policies and initiatives. The rapper appeared at the Trump Accounts Summit in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, Jan. 28, where she praised the administration's rollout of government-backed investment accounts for U.S.-born babies and pledged a significant personal contribution to the program.

Speaking at the event, Nicki described herself as Trump's strongest supporter and said negative reactions to her political stance have only intensified her loyalty. "I am probably the president's number one fan, and that's not going to change," she told attendees. Addressing public criticism, she added, "What people have to say, it does not affect me at all. It actually motivates me to support him more."

According to CNBC, Nicki plans to contribute between $150,000 and $300,000 to the Trump Accounts, a savings initiative introduced under Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act." The accounts are designed for U.S. citizens born between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2028, and will launch with a one-time $1,000 government contribution. Annual contributions are capped at $5,000, with funds invested in a broad stock-market index. Account holders gain access at age 18 under standard IRA rules.

Kimmel said the footage emerging from Minneapolis left him feeling both stunned and deeply unsettled, adding that the public response from authorities only intensified his frustration.

In a turn of events, Kanye “Ye” West released a comprehensive apology directed at both the Black and Jewish communities for his history of inflammatory outbursts and antisemitic rhetoric. The statement, delivered via a three-page letter posted to his official website and social media channels, marks his first major public address since taking a self-imposed “medical and spiritual sabbatical” in late 2025.

The apology specifically addresses the series of highly publicized incidents that began in late 2022, which led to the termination of his major business partnerships and widespread condemnation. West acknowledged that his actions caused profound “pain and division,” admitting that his words were often fueled by untreated manic episodes related to his bipolar disorder. “I am stepping out of a long period of darkness to ask for forgiveness,” West wrote. “To the Jewish community, I am deeply sorry for the tropes and the hurt my words caused. They were not rooted in truth, but in a misplaced anger that I allowed to become public.”
