Parvati is well-known for creating two buzzy reality TV moments. During Survivor: Heroes vs Villains, Parvati’s two idol shocker saved two members of her Villain tribe. Then, during the second season of The Traitors, Parvati pulled off a murder in front of everyone. She subtly convinced poor Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu to drink from a poisoned goblet.
Now, Parvarti is opening up like never before in her new memoir, Nice Girls Don’t Win: How I Burned It All Down. The book, published by The Dial Press, will be available next summer. Parvati dealt with some tough situations after winning Survivor at 25 years old. Her divorce from fellow Survivor player John Fincher was difficult to navigate, as was the death of her brother. The memoir’s synopsis reads, “As harrowing as it is healing, Shallow’s story is a testament to the profound lessons that can be found in radical self-acceptance and self-love.”
Parvati told PEOPLE, “When I entered the world of reality TV competition at 23 years old, I released control over my own story and I lost myself in the noise for a long time. Writing this book in the thick of a difficult divorce helped me reclaim my power by telling my story, my way,” she explained.
“I dug into the deepest, most intimate parts of my life,” Parvati stated, “and faced some hard truths to help myself heal from the pain of my past. I hope my story supports readers who are looking to take leaps of faith, bet on themselves, and make tough choices to create the lives their hearts and souls long for.”

Heidi Klum nailed a stunning lacey look while celebrating Christmas this year. In the caption of the Instagram post, the “America’s Got Talent” judge playfully wrote, “Santa …Are you coming down my chimney tonight.” In the photos, she donned a black mini dress that featured full sleeves with delicate black lace details. Her festive outfit also displayed a pair of matching sheer lace stockings.
The holiday fit flaunted Klum’s alluring figure. Another big highlight of her look was the shoes. She chose to rock a pair of massive furry Ugg boots in black, amping up the playfulness and festive nature of her look. As for makeup, Klum went for a defined and dark eye look and a nude lip. She kept her blonde hair loose and natural.
The first photograph in the carousel showed Klum standing on a slope of a fireplace with one leg up in the air while trying to embrace the chimney above the fireplace. The second photo gave fans a closer back view of the model’s outfit. Meanwhile, the third one saw her giving a fun pose in front of the fireplace with a bright smile on her face.

Olivia Munn and John Mulaney’s house has been quite a “mess” this Christmas due to their two adorable kids. The couple expanded their sweet little family earlier this September after welcoming a daughter, Méi June Mulaney, via surrogate. They have since shared multiple updates about the many firsts with their baby girl, including a wholesome Thanksgiving gathering and a cozy fall season. More recently, Munn posted the most relatable Christmas photos as a mom of two, and these heart-melting snaps are as candid as they can get.
Olivia Munn shares relatable Christmas photos with kids and John Mulaney
In these relatable and realistic snaps, Olivia Munn shared what her and John Mulaney’s Christmas looked like with not one but two kids in the house. Munn offered brief glimpses into their holiday celebrations — the first one as a family of four — in a few heartwarming photos on December 25. Moreover, the caption was as truthful as it could get. She wrote, “The house is a mess,” clearly referring to the disarranged living room as seen in the stills.
In the first slide, the actor sat on the couch in the cozy setting, holding their daughter, Méi. Meanwhile, the girl looked at the camera as her mum kissed her on the cheek. The Christmas tree sparkled in the background with an unorganized coffee table filled with toys, candles, and other things. In the second slide, Mulaney shoulder held their daughter and gently kissed her on the head.
Olivia Munn also shared a charming photo of Malcolm and his chaotic Christmas charades. The boy wore the coziest outfit as he sat amid the mess and stared at a snow globe. Munn then wrote in the caption, “Malcolm got safety glasses personally from the penguins of Madagascar,” mentioning the cool glasses he donned in the picture. Additionally, she revealed that their daughter turned “100 days old today.”
In the next slides, the 44-year-old documented Méi’s darling snores and ultimately revealed the state of their living room. Munn shared a video of their chaotic living room in the final slide. In the clip, she said, “The house is a mess,” attributing it to Christmas being a total “success.” On top of that, she noted in the caption that all her wishes have finally come true. The former television host later posted a video of “Christmasing” with her daughter while the others were asleep.

Photos from Dua Lipa’s white Christmas moments proved that she pulled off a risqué Santa Claus outfit comprising a pair of really short shorts and a plunging top. The singer gave the traditional Santa-inspired costume a saucy twist by donning barely-there fuzzy shorts, truly bringing winter heat to the holiday table. She shared a clip of her attire in a since-deleted Instagram Story, and it seemed like just the right way to spread some holiday cheer.
This may have been one of the lesser glam Christmas outfits, but Dua Lipa knew exactly how to spice it up in these sultry photos. In a snap she posted on her Instagram Stories, she wore a somewhat basic all-white outfit with certain racy elements that didn’t go unnoticed. Lipa donned a ribbed, full-sleeved top, styling it to flaunt a deep plunge by slightly bending forward. She paired the basic tee with teeny tiny shorts while both pieces comprised a fuzzy hemline, adding more coziness to the appearance.
For more Christmassy additions, the singer topped off the holiday outfit with a red and white Santa hat to rightly elevate the festive mood. Moreover, she wore essential jewelry pieces such as silver hoops and a stunning cross pendant. As for the makeup, Lipa’s look mainly comprised neutral colors, including a pink-ish matte lipstick and some blush as she confidently donned an open hairdo to celebrate with loved ones. Her sister, Rina Lipa, also shared a photo from their celebrations in which she gleefully smiled with her eyes closed all the while holding a glass.
Dua Lipa, who was home for Christmas, dropped more holiday photos in one of her recent Instagram posts. These stills documented a range of festive and fun activities, including dressing up for the season, enjoying mouthwatering delicacies and desserts, and even attending concerts. Lipa also shared multiple pictures of her dog and other snaps depicting absolute holiday cheer and glam.

You have to see Paris Hilton’s new Christmas photos to believe it
Paris Hilton took to Instagram to post a series of sultry photos for Christmas. The 43-year-old captioned the post, “All wrapped up and ready to sliv this holiday season.” Hilton made jaws drop after nearly baring it all with her risqué choice of outfit for this year’s holiday season. The media personality wore nothing but a giant red bow, holding it just enough to cover her private parts from the front.
Hilton completed the look with matching red fingerless gloves, pointed-toe pumps, and a pair of huge pearl drop earrings. Meanwhile, the businesswoman’s signature blonde hair, which she styled in Old Hollywood waves, added an extra touch of glamour to her ensemble. Besides the bow look, Hilton donned a holiday-inspired lingerie for some of the racy Christmas photos. The socialite wore a sultry red lacy set and paired it with matching red thigh-high fishnet stockings and suspenders.
Hilton’s red lingerie set was also adorned with white fur, which matched the cuffs of her red gloves. The mom of two topped the look with a fur stole and wore the piece on her arms. Meanwhile, her jewels selection also didn’t go unnoticed. The actor wore a stacked pearl choker necklace and matching earrings. In one of the clips in the Instagram carousel, Hilton donned sunglasses and cheekily mentioned, “Some girls are born with glitter in their veins,” while throwing the confetti around.

Jennifer Lopez focused on spending time with friends and family this Christmas with her over-the-top glam. The singer took to Instagram Stories on Christmas Eve to showcase her elaborate Christmas tree decor. For the festive season, she opted to wear the comfiest T-shirt and pants, ditching her go-to glamorous look. Her makeup was also as subdued as her outfit.

Jennifer Lopez’s Christmas Eve photos and video feature downtime with family
Jennifer Lopez opted for some downtime with family this Christmas. On December 24, the singer and actor posted multiple updates on Instagram, showcasing her festive celebrations with friends and family. Firstly, she took to her Instagram Stories to pose with the Christmas tree. The star was all smiles as she donned a plain white T-shirt tied around the waist to resemble a crop top and nude-colored pants.
Meanwhile, Lopez also posted a video that gave a closer look at her cozy Christmas. The video documented the singer sitting by the fireplace as her friends and family were busy with the Christmas decor. As she panned the camera around, one could seemingly find her 16-year-old twins, Max and Emme, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony. A few other members were seen decorating the Christmas tree.
Lopez captioned the post, “Merry Christmas Eve to you and yours.” While she opted for a comfy fit, she paired it with a glam as minimal as possible. Sporting light makeup, she left her brunette hair open and in soft waves with a middle part. The video, which stands at over 470K likes at the time of writing, saw her fans and followers send her warm Christmas wishes.
Meanwhile, the singer marked an end to her Christmas celebrations by posting another update on Instagram. She was seen enjoying the snowy winter with her sister, Lynda Lopez, and their kids. For this, she opted for a fur coat with a giant hood and matching fur boots.

As Santa Claus finishes his preps at the North Pole, he is also no doubt checking to see which Bravo stars have been naughty, or nice. I’d say many of those celebs would fall under the naughty category. During Season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, there hasn’t been too much drama. Unless you count the vicious feud between Dorit Kemsley and her former bestie, Kyle Richards.
Make no mistake, these two ladies are at war. Meanwhile, RHOBH welcomed a brand-new housewife, the fascinating Bozoma Saint John. And she hit it off instantly with Dorit. Plus, Kyle’s big sister Kathy Hilton is back as a friend of the cast, as is Sutton Stracke’s good friend, actress Jennifer Tilly. All in all, this feels like a season full of possibilities. Or, as Santa would say, tons of opportunities to land on his naughty list.
So, which RHOBH stars are already on Santa’s naughty list? And who is chilling on his nice list? Let’s find out!
Sutton Stracke – Nice

So far, Sutton has been pretty quiet for Season 14 of RHOBH. She held a bonkers Surrealism party inspired by Salvador Dali, the artist. The costumes were wild, and it was just over-the-top fun. Unfortunately, Dorit chose that moment to hit back at Kyle. It turned the conversation into a spectator sport while the two ladies screamed at each other.
During the girls’ trip, Sutton told Dorit that she was there to support her, and would even go to court with her if she and her husband, PK Kemsley, divorced. That was a wonderful offer since this twosome has a history of butting heads.
Plus, Sutton wrote up a lovely essay about sisterhood and friendship. Then, in a ritual, the ladies had their hands tied together to bind their sisterhood. Unfortunately, the ritual was a bust, as Dorit and Sutton argued the next morning on the way to the airport. Still, Sutton’s gestures of goodwill earned her a spot on Santa’s nice list.
Kyle Richards – Naughty
Kyle’s fallout with Dorit was almost inevitable. So, what happened to cause the friendship to implode? Kyle sent Dorit a text right before the Season 13 RHOBH reunion. After Dorit deemed it “manipulative,” Erika Jayne agreed. However, Kyle was furious at Dorit for exposing the text message.
Then, at BravoCon, Dorit was asked to “rate the Richards sisters” from favorite to least favorite. Instead, Dorit tried to sip her drink, which Kyle nearly knocked out of her grasp. Kyle admitted that she was “embarrassed” by the entire incident. Plus, Dorit sided with Kyle’s sister, Kathy, during the Season 12 reunion, which made Kyle angry at Dorit.
However, all of this drama put a tangle in Kyle’s tinsel, because she wasn’t prepared for an activated Dorit. “What’s happened to you?” Kyle asked. “Why are you doing that?” Dorit replied, “Because I’m not going to put up with your sh*t anymore, Kyle.” Damn, Dorit!
So, after years of allegedly icing out Dorit if she did anything that Kyle disliked, this Christmas movie queen was shocked to play defense. And let’s just say that right now, the temperature between these longtime friends is frosty at best.
Erika Jayne – Nice

I don’t know what it is about Erika this season. She is relaxed, fun, and not throwing daggers at anyone. This Pretty Mess is concentrating on her career and living her best life. It looks like some of the pain from her ongoing divorce from Tom Girardi has finally settled, and she can take a deep breath.
It was interesting to see how Erika was trying to play the role of Switzerland in Kyle and Dorit’s feud. Before, Erika would have immediately defended Kyle. However, now she was trying to get Kyle and Dorit to talk and work it all out.
Even Erika’s shade is lighter and more humorous than before. After Sutton’s friendship ritual, Erika weighed in during her confessional. “I’m sorry. Are we in cheer camp? Are we in Brownie camp? Girl scout camp?” she asked. Before, she would have lit Sutton up. It is a well-known fact that the jolly man at the North Pole appreciates a sense of humor. So, no coal for Erika this year!
Garcelle Beauvais – Naughty
On the way to their glamourous beach day, RHOBH fans heard about how Garcelle Beauvais dated Will Smith, Eddie Murphy, and Sean Penn. Plus, Garcelle, Sutton, and Jennifer were all very involved in a drinking game about sex. How merry!
Later, when Dorit and Kyle had another dinner table disagreement, this time, Garcelle chimed in. After Dorit claimed that she always acknowledges when she’s done something wrong, Garcelle disagreed. According to Garcelle, Dorit never apologizes. “And let’s be honest. I’m not your favorite person. You’re very clear about that,” Dorit told Garcelle. “Okay. Great. Then we’re on the same page,” Garcelle responded. Brrr!
However, Garcelle was not done going after Dorit. The next day, she asked Dorit why she reposted a social media post from Teddi Mellencamp if she and Teddi weren’t friends. Of course, Dorit replied that she never said that she wasn’t friends with Teddi. They just weren’t close. But that wasn’t what Dorit said.
Plus, Garcelle’s super shady confessionals landed her on the North Pole’s naughty list. When Dorit claimed that her latest drama was all about Teddi, Garcelle disagreed. “It’s not about Teddi! Although Teddi will be thrilled,” Garcelle said during her confessional.
Bozoma Saint John – Nice

Bozoma is a newbie this season. She is newly retired from corporate America, where she was a kick-ass marketing executive for companies such as Uber and Netflix, to name just a few. Her accomplishments are beyond impressive.
In addition, she is a widow and has one daughter. Bozoma is also a good friend of Sutton’s. Plus, her fashion is fire. She slays in every outfit, and she becomes fast friends with another fashionista in the group: Dorit. They bonded over Boz’s loss and Dorit’s separation.
Obviously, Boz has already figured out the group dynamic. None of the ladies are “direct,” and Boz will have to dig through layers to figure out what is the truth.
At first, Boz was startled by the screaming and cursing at Sutton’s party, but now she seems to have settled in with the group. Plus, she is an incredible, magical addition to the cast.
Dorit Kemsley – Nice
The Season 14 version of Dorit is new to the RHOBH audience. She isn’t afraid of anyone and is standing up for herself. Dorit put Kyle on notice that she was tired of being iced out if she did anything to upset her.
Plus, Dorit told Kyle that her comments during an Amazon Live were hurtful. As you may recall, Kyle claimed that Dorit “exaggerated” their friendship. All because Dorit had defended Kyle’s sister, Kathy.
It seemed like Kyle was stunned by Dorit’s fierce energy and refusal to back down. Dorit is also navigating a separation from her husband, PK. In the past, Dorit would have crumbled. Instead, she is honest and open about her marital struggles. Her attitude about her separation, and the implosion of her friendship with Kyle, is bold and refreshing. And that is why Dorit’s name is on Santa’s nice list.
Jennifer Tilly – Naughty

Jennifer is one of Sutton’s besties. She is also a professional poker player and is rich. You see, she owns a piece of The Simpsons, thanks to her late ex-husband, Sam Simon.
Fans love Jennifer’s lust for life and quirky behavior. Going on a girls’ trip? You better pack that sage, just in case! Plus, she fit right in playing raunchy, sex-themed drinking games in the Sprinter van. Let’s just say that Jennifer knows a fair amount about crooked d*cks.
I love how Jennifer embraces the truth. She told Kyle that she was “kind of enjoying” the argument between Dorit and Kyle. Even if you thought it, would you say it? Probably not. But that’s why Jennifer is a riot on RHOBH. She lights up a room like a twinkling holiday display. And I have a feeling she would be offended if she wasn’t on Santa’s naughty list.
Kathy Hilton – Nice
If the pleated bucket hat makes a comeback, we will owe it all to Kathy. What I have learned about Kathy boggles my mind. She delivered suitcases packed with goodies, like beach towels and cans of Red Bull, to the cast as invites for a girls’ trip.
This box fan enthusiast told a chef how to grill lobster on a yacht. She is, as Kyle stated, “bossy.” However, she is also incredibly entertaining. She refused to use the lobster dining tools, asking Jennifer to pull it out with her fingernails instead. Well, that is … something.
Kyle also shared that she found Kathy brushing her teeth with toothpaste and her eye shadow brush. Don’t worry, Kathy. If you keep being good, maybe Santa will slip a new toothbrush into your stocking.
Hailey Bieber continues to honor her son, Jack Blues Bieber, in her accessory collection. Over the weekend, the model displayed her new custom ring on her Instagram Stories. A few months earlier, Hailey shared pictures of her new “JBB” necklace dedicated to her firstborn. The Rhode founder and her husband, Justin Bieber, announced the arrival of their son in August, and since then have been enjoying parental bliss while flaunting Jack-inspired accessories.
Hailey Bieber’s new ring has a connection to baby Jack Blues
Hailey Bieber is embracing motherhood once again through her choice of luxe jewelry. On Saturday, the model took to Instagram Stories to showcase her new custom ring on her right hand. Amid her beautiful hand tattoos and nail glam, there was a gold ring that featured a pair of green and yellow gemstones. She referred to them as “Jack” and “Mama,” respectively.
The gemstones were placed together to represent the bond between Bieber and her son. Meanwhile, the ring was custom-made by Ring Concierge, who also posted the model’s display of the ring on their Instagram page. The brand said, “@haileybieber wearing her Ring Concierge Toi et Moi Personalized Gemstone Ring, a stone to represent mom and baby.”
It is also likely that the green gem was a square-cut peridot stone, associated with Jack’s zodiac sign — Virgo. The pear-shaped yellow stone seemingly looks like a topaz that celebrates November-born individuals like the Rhode founder herself.
This isn’t the first time Bieber has exhibited accessory pieces inspired by her son. In October, the model showcased some personalized bling on social media. She shared a snapshot of herself wearing a gold chain with “JBB” written in bubbly letters as the pendant. Moreover, the pendant was adorned with crystals that contributed to the glistening shimmer.
Hailey Bieber has also shared a glimpse into her motherhood journey on social media. As part of her monthly recaps, the model uploaded a family picture documenting cozy pictures of the family. The parents sported huge smiles while wearing fur coats, with the Rhode founder holding Jack snugly to her chest.

In the cozy and Christmassy stills, Kardashian flaunted chaotic yet glamourous behind-the-scenes of her early festivities. The first few photos showed the gorgeous stairway decor with fairy lights intertwined with evergreen foliage, a trendy light setup, and a messy kitchen with spilled hot chocolate in the next slides. In the following snaps, Kardashian documented a Christmas theme with comfy Santa Claus sliders, candy cane treats, and an opulent rose and candle setup, combining romance and holidays in one frame.
Other photos in Kourtney Kardashian’s Instagram thread depicting Christmas 2024 displayed more holiday-themed treats. These included what appeared to be a homemade cake with all the colors of the season and a massive stack of pancakes.

Another hazy still showed her enjoying the festivities with joyous laughter.
All in all, the photos proved that Kardashian celebrated a couple of the jolliest days snuggling up at home and with loved ones. She concluded the post with the caption, “Festive,” topping it off with a cherry and Christmas tree emoji.
