Q & A<br />

Ginnifer<br />

Goodwin<br />

The actress, 39, stars in<br />

Constellations at Geffen<br />

Playhouse in L.A.<br />

Why did you want<br />

to do the play?<br />

I was looking to be<br />

terrified! [Laughs] But<br />

I was actually experiencing<br />

homesickness for theater.<br />

I read Constellations<br />

and really fell hard for it.<br />

What was your<br />

preparation like?<br />

This is a play comprised of<br />

two people standing on<br />

stage the whole time,<br />

so I prepared for months.<br />

But I don’t think I’ll<br />

ever feel like it was enough.<br />

What will you miss<br />

about playing Snow<br />

White on ABC’s<br />

Once Upon a Time?<br />

There was a creativeness<br />

that was unparalleled.<br />

And I always wanted to<br />

be a Disney princess.<br />

Now I’ll just have to go to<br />

Disneyland and reminisce.<br />

How do you like to spend<br />

your downtime?<br />

Any moment off is about<br />

hanging out with my kids<br />

[sons Oliver, 3, and Hugo, 1].<br />

Our favorite thing is to load<br />

up the car and drive to<br />

the beach. It’s a very safe<br />

place for toddlers to learn<br />

to walk. —JULIE JORDAN<br />

THE END OF<br />

PARADISE?<br />

BY PATRICK GOMEZ<br />

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ULTIMATE SUMMER<br />

vacation for a new cast of former Bachelor and<br />

Bachelorette alumni, who arrived in Puerto Vallarta,<br />

Mexico, the weekend of <strong>June</strong> 2 and traveled to the<br />

nearby beach town of Sayulita, Mexico, for what they<br />

hoped would be three weeks of relaxation and<br />

romance while filming season 4 of ABC’s Bachelor in<br />

Paradise. But by <strong>June</strong> 13, just two days into filming,<br />

the fun was over. “We were put on lockdown,”<br />

a cast member tells <strong>People</strong> of suddenly being<br />

sequestered and forbidden from talking to<br />

the other contestants. Sources confirm<br />

production was suspended after a producer<br />

raised concerns about an alleged sexual<br />

encounter between contestant DeMario<br />

Jackson, 30, and a female castmate, both of whom<br />

had reportedly been drinking heavily all day. The<br />

conduct “may have occurred without the proper<br />

the show’s host Chris Harrison. “An<br />

Once that’s done, a clear concise decision can<br />

romantic musical chairs,<br />

with those unable to<br />

couple up sent home —<br />

was broken to the cast on<br />

<strong>June</strong> 9. “Some people<br />

cried, and there was a lot<br />

of yelling,” says the contestant<br />

source. “We’re pissed.<br />

[Producers] could have seen they<br />

were drinking too much and<br />

stopped it.” But a former producer<br />

for the show says he isn’t<br />

surprised something like this has<br />

happened: “It’s par for the course<br />

that there is a drunken hookup<br />

that went too far—that certainly<br />

goes on all the time.” He notes<br />

that it’s because “Bachelor in<br />

Paradise is like spring break or<br />

summer camp. No one’s forcing<br />

you to drink, but it’s a party vibe.”<br />

Former Bachelor in Paradise<br />

contestant Ryan Beckett agrees<br />

that there is copious drinking on<br />

the show: “<strong>People</strong> drink like they<br />

are in college or on a cruise,” he<br />

says. Still, Beckett says in his<br />

experience, if things got out of<br />

hand, producers always got<br />

involved. “I felt like they definitely<br />

had it under control,” he says.<br />

Several show sources have said<br />

they believe Jackson did nothing<br />

wrong, and Harrison cautions<br />

against a rush to<br />

judgment. “There’s a<br />

lot of misinformation<br />

out there,” he<br />

says. “It is my sincere<br />

hope that we can<br />

come to a quick<br />

resolution on this and get back<br />

to work very soon.” But<br />

some believe Paradise<br />

may be over for good.<br />

“Every year there have<br />

been questions about<br />

whether or not the<br />

show has gone too far,”<br />

says a show source.<br />

“This incident throws<br />

into question if perhaps<br />

the show simply needs<br />

to be over.” —reporting by<br />

“<strong>People</strong> go out and<br />

BiP alum Ryan<br />

Beckett says of being<br />

provided booze on<br />

set. (Pictured: the<br />

“It was always<br />

available, but<br />

definitely never<br />

forced on us.” Adds a<br />

former producer: “We<br />

will intervene if<br />

someone’s gotten too<br />

drunk and can’t<br />

handle themselves.<br />

But if someone seems<br />

to know what they’re<br />

doing, we probably<br />

will let that go. There’s<br />

“We’re so, so, so<br />

about the anticipated<br />

arrival. “I feel<br />

so ready.”<br />

WHITNEY PORT<br />

‘So Ready’ for Baby No. 1!<br />

For her first time as the star of her own baby shower, Whitney<br />

Port longed for a “supercasual” evening get-together, and the<br />

former Hills star got her wish. On the rooftop of the SIXTY<br />

Beverly Hills Hotel on <strong>June</strong> 9, Port and her husband, producer<br />

Tim Rosenman, were joined by about 50 friends and relatives to<br />

celebrate their first child. Because the couple is waiting to find<br />

out the baby’s sex, the gender-neutral shower “didn’t have a color<br />

situation” and instead included “funky tropical” florals made<br />

by her sister Ashley. As for the current Hills baby boom—costars<br />

Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad are also expecting—“We<br />

don’t really keep in touch,” says Port. “I’m supporting them from<br />

afar, but not necessarily in their lives.” —NICOLE SANDS<br />

ARMIE HAMMER<br />

ENJOYING L<br />

IN THE FAST L<br />

When Pixar called to<br />

ask Armie Hammer<br />

if he’d be interested in<br />

lending his voice to<br />

one of its upcoming<br />

films, the 30-year-old<br />

actor said yes—<br />

without even knowing<br />

which movie the<br />

famed animation<br />

studio had in mind.<br />

“I was like, ‘Yep, I’m in.<br />

I’ll do it no matter<br />

what,’ ” says Hammer.<br />

The film? Cars 3, in<br />

which Hammer plays<br />

rookie racer Jackson<br />

Storm, an arrogant<br />

challenger to<br />

longtime favorite<br />

Lightning McQueen<br />

(Owen Wilson). “My<br />

favorite thing about<br />

this, besides having<br />

done a Pixar film, is<br />

the fact that I now get<br />

to say I’m in a movie<br />

with Paul Newman,”<br />

says Hammer. The<br />

filmmakers were able<br />

to use extra audio<br />

from the late actor’s<br />

original work in Cars<br />

to supplement<br />

McQueen’s story line<br />

in the third film.<br />

Another perk? Sharing<br />

it with his 2 1 ⁄ 2-year-old<br />

daughter Harper, who<br />

attended the film’s<br />

Disneyland premiere<br />

with her dad. “This<br />

was her first time<br />

sitting through a<br />

movie with me,”<br />

he says. “She was<br />

can.” Hammer and<br />

his wife, Elizabeth, 34,<br />

are also parents to<br />

five-month-old son<br />

Ford. At home he’s<br />

likely to be at the grill.<br />

“I’m sort of the<br />

master of the meat<br />

in our household,<br />

whether it’s steaks,<br />

smoked barbecue,<br />

fish,” says the L.A.<br />

native. “I love to cook.<br />

The actress, 39, advocates for research<br />

and funding to end HIV and AIDS<br />

I’m from New York and an artist, and for my entire<br />

life I’ve been touched by people who were sometimes<br />

fighting for their lives. HIV is the No. 1 killer of women<br />

of a reproductive age. Since I’ve become a mother,<br />

I look at the world with such clear eyes. There’s this<br />

selflessness that not only gives you that desire to be there for your children,<br />

but also the responsibility to be there for other children. I teamed up with the<br />

Abzyme Research Foundation to star in Sia’s new “Free Me” music video<br />

(inset)—proceeds from the single support the #endHIV initiative. The story line<br />

is about a woman who learns she is HIV positive and pregnant at the same time.<br />

But she also finds out that there’s a good chance that her child will be born HIVfree—thanks<br />

to a vaccine. Doctors are so advanced in their research that they’re<br />

coming closer every day to finding a cure. We can<br />

always do our part to help people who are afflicted by<br />

bigger issues than our own. You have to be a part of<br />

that movement. —REPORTED BY JEFF NELSON<br />

tribute<br />

West (left in 1965 and on<br />

Batman in 1966) “was bigger<br />

than life, with an amazing<br />

sense of humor,” says<br />

Burt Ward, who played Robin.<br />

The Brightest<br />

Dark Knight<br />

PLAYING BATMAN ON 1960S TV WITH A LIGHT, FUNNY TOUCH,<br />

HE LAUNCHED GENERATIONS ON A CAPED CR<strong>USA</strong>DE<br />

By TOM GLIATTO<br />

In the decades after ABC’s Batman<br />

ended its three-season run<br />

in 1968, Adam West mulled what<br />

would happen if he were to turn<br />

up as the Caped Crusader in<br />

the blockbuster movies, giving successors<br />

such as Michael Keaton, Christian<br />

Bale and Ben Affleck a blast from the<br />

Bat-past. “<strong>People</strong> would stand up and<br />

cheer,” he predicted. It was just a dream,<br />

of course: How would this Batman, a superhero<br />

who defeated villains with the<br />

unruffled charm of a maître d’, fit in the<br />

realm of the angst-ridden Dark Knight?<br />

Half a century on, though, West’s comic<br />

performance seems truly heroic. When<br />

the 88-year-old actor died of leukemia<br />

<strong>June</strong> 9, Affleck tweeted: “Thank you for<br />

showing us all how it’s done.”<br />

The Walla Walla, Wash., native never<br />

retired his cape: He and Burt Ward, who<br />

played sidekick Robin, last appeared<br />

together at a fan convention just a few<br />

weeks ago. Survived by wife Marcelle,<br />

four children and two stepchildren,<br />

West “wouldn’t want anybody to mourn<br />

even one minute,” says Ward. “He spent<br />

the majority of his career bringing happiness<br />

to millions.”<br />

The Batman series was a surprisingly<br />

campy, funny take on the famous DC<br />

comic-book hero. West faced off against<br />

a bizarre cavalcade of guest stars, most<br />

famously Julie Newmar as purring<br />

temptress Catwoman. West “was bright,<br />

witty and fun,” she recalled. After the<br />

show ended, he was eventually rediscovered,<br />

appearing on The<br />

Big Bang Theory and Family<br />

Guy. He was grateful to be<br />

known as Gotham’s favorite<br />

son: “I’d be doing fans a great<br />

disservice if I were to try to<br />

bury Batman.”<br />

—WITH REPORTING BY<br />

ALE RUSSIAN<br />

Long Legacy<br />

West (with third wife Marcelle<br />

and his family) was honored<br />

with a star on the Hollywood<br />

Walk of Fame in 2012.<br />

Your eczema may be<br />

hiding something.<br />

You may think you know eczema, but what<br />

you might not know is that it’s a term used to<br />

describe a variety of skin conditions. The most<br />

common form of eczema is actually a chronic<br />

disease called atopic dermatitis.<br />

You can see the signs of atopic dermatitis<br />

on the surface, but a key underlying cause<br />

remains hidden. Inflammation beneath the<br />

skin can lead to the red, itchy rashes that<br />

you try to manage, but just keep coming<br />

back. This underlying inflammation is always<br />

active, meaning your next flare-up is just<br />

waiting to return.<br />

Don’t just focus on the symptoms; learn more<br />

about what may be happening beneath the<br />

skin’s surface at EczemaExposed.com.<br />

Ruth Negga.<br />

Preacher<br />

It’s one hell of a journey as Dominic Cooper and Ruth Negga try to find the Almighty<br />

TV<br />

FANTASY Showtime’s reboot of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks was welcomed (and puzzled<br />

over) as the return of a surrealist whose first attempt at mainstream programming was<br />

ahead of its time. But while there’s still only one Peaks, other fascinatingly strange<br />

formations have risen in recent years, throwing twisted shadows: The best are FX’s Legion,<br />

Starz’ American Gods and, back for season 2, AMC’s Preacher. Dominic Cooper is Jesse Custer, a man<br />

who bends people to his will through what may be divine power. Drifting across a landscape that looks<br />

like Hillbilly Elegy after war and drought, he’s on a search for a God gone AWOL. (Jesse learned this in<br />

season 1, when he tried to place a direct call to the Almighty.) Teamed with his lover Tulip (Loving’s<br />

Ruth Negga), he’s trailed by a bounty hunter from hell. Blood flows, with deadpan humor as a sponge.<br />

It may all mean nothing. Or you may think this is us just as much as This Is Us. (AMC, <strong>June</strong> 25, 10 p.m.)

DID A TEEN’S TEXTS DRIVE<br />

HER BOYFRIEND TO SUICIDE?<br />

FATAL ROMANCE<br />

Michelle Carter stands trial for involuntary manslaughter for allegedly urging<br />

boyfriend Conrad Roy III to kill himself in a series of shocking texts By JOHNNY DODD<br />

In the final days before 18-year-old Conrad Roy<br />

III decided to end his life on July 12, 2014, by<br />

inhaling deadly carbon monoxide, he was wavering.<br />

But his then 17-year-old girlfriend Michelle<br />

Carter didn’t want to hear any more excuses.<br />

“You’re ready and prepared,” she texted<br />

him. “All you have to do is turn the generator<br />

on and you [will] be free and happy. No more<br />

pushing it off, no more waiting.” After Roy’s<br />

body was found inside his pickup truck in a<br />

Fairhaven, Mass., parking lot, Carter texted<br />

a friend to confess, “I could have stopped it.<br />

I was on the phone with him and he got out of the<br />

car because it was working and he got scared and I<br />

[expletive] told him to get back in.”<br />

The chilling power of those words—and the influence<br />

they wielded over a teenage boy—are at the<br />

center of a shocking case that could set legal prec-<br />

edent and is being watched closely by scholars of<br />

the law as well as parents of teens nationwide. Are<br />

a teen girl’s texts to her boyfriend protected speech<br />

or were they tantamount to being an accomplice to<br />

suicide? Those questions are being hotly debated<br />

by prosecution and defense attorneys in the Bristol<br />

County juvenile court in Taunton, Mass., where<br />

Carter is on trial for involuntary manslaughter.<br />

Her defense team unsuccessfully tried to get the<br />

case thrown out and are now trying to prove her<br />

innocence to Judge Lawrence Moniz, who will<br />

decide the fate of the now 20-year-old Carter in<br />

lieu of a jury trial. “I think this is going to be a close<br />

case,” says Larry Cunningham, former prosecutor<br />

and vice dean at St. John’s University School<br />

of Law in New York City. “What’s going to make<br />

this case difficult is the fact that the assistance<br />

was verbal rather than physical. The question is,<br />

TEXT TO ROY<br />

what was her role in the suicide?”<br />

Prosecutors maintain that her role was clear: In<br />

multiple phone calls and dozens of texts, they say<br />

she coaxed Roy into committing suicide for her own<br />

purposes. Prosecuting attorney Maryclare Flynn<br />

charges that Carter, who viewed herself as unpopular<br />

and friendless, played a “sick game” with Roy’s<br />

life and was motivated by a need for sympathy and<br />

attention by becoming the “grieving girlfriend.”<br />

According to court documents, Carter was on the<br />

phone with Roy for more than an hour as his vehicle<br />

began to fill with carbon monoxide, urging<br />

him to follow through on the suicide plan she had<br />

helped devise. “You just have to do it, Conrad,” she<br />

previously texted Roy, later texting, “It’s painless<br />

S EAR C H I N G<br />

F O R ANS W E R S<br />

Carter (in a Facebook photo before Roy’s death) was the “wrong person”<br />

for Roy (in a Facebook photo of him boating) to turn to, say friends. “If he’d<br />

talked to anyone but Michelle,” says his pal Louie Pina, “he’d still be here.”<br />

and quick.” And on the night Roy died, classmate<br />

Samantha Boardman testified at trial that Carter<br />

texted her, “I heard moaning like someone was in<br />

pain and he wouldn’t answer when I said his name.<br />

I stayed on the phone for like 20! mins and that’s all<br />

I heard. . . . Can we do something tonight to get my<br />

mind off it.”<br />

But Carter’s attorney Joseph Cataldo points out<br />

that Roy had allegedly attempted suicide before and<br />

that her texts are protected speech that “did not<br />

contain anything remotely resembling a threat,”<br />

according to a court filing obtained by <strong>People</strong>. The<br />

defense has also maintained that Carter sent encouraging<br />

texts to Roy, including one that allegedly<br />

stated, “You aren’t going to get better on your own.<br />

You need professional help like me.” Psychiatrist Dr.<br />

Peter Breggin testified for the defense that Carter<br />

had been taking antidepressants at the time of Roy’s<br />

suicide, drugs that have been known to “disrupt the<br />

frontal-lobe function.” Breggin told the court, “She’s<br />

not thinking she’s doing something criminal; she<br />

found a way to help her boyfriend.” Says her attorney<br />

Cataldo: “This is a tragedy, but it is not a crime.”<br />

Roy and Carter met while their families were on separate<br />

vacations in 2012 and lived about an hour<br />

apart—Roy in Mattapoisett and Carter in Plainville,<br />

Mass. Most of their communications, which turned<br />

romantic, were on the phone or via text due to the<br />

distance between them. Roy, who had been<br />

accepted to Fitchburg State University to study<br />

business, was someone his friends say they felt they<br />

could count on. “He was a guy who had it all figured<br />

out,” friend Evelyn Murdock said of Roy in a 2015<br />

interview with <strong>People</strong>. “He had a great sense of<br />

humor. He knew he wanted to work on boats and<br />

got his certification to become a captain. He knew<br />

what he wanted and went for it.” Still, Roy’s emotional<br />

struggles were known to some of his friends,<br />

as well as his alleged previous suicide attempt. “I<br />

knew he had a history,” his pal Louie Pina told<br />

<strong>People</strong> in a 2015 interview. “Whenever I asked him<br />

about it, he would never give me details. I just told<br />

him if he ever needed someone to talk to, he should<br />

never feel like he was alone. I wish I was the one he<br />

talked to, instead of talking to Michelle.”<br />

Roy’s body was found in his truck on July 13,<br />

2014. The portable gas-powered generator found<br />

in the backseat supplied the carbon monoxide that<br />

police say killed him. In the final moments before<br />

Roy’s death, Carter clearly seemed to understand<br />

that what she was doing was wrong and urged Roy<br />

to “delete the messages” she’d sent him. Days later,<br />

she texted a friend to say, “If they read my messages<br />

to him, I’m done.” Her parents issued a statement<br />

when charges were brought against their daughter<br />

insisting she would be found innocent. “Our<br />

hearts have and remain broken for the Roy family,”<br />

they wrote. “For everyone that does not know our<br />

daughter, she is not the villain the media is portraying<br />

her to be. She is a quiet, kind and sympathetic<br />

young girl. She tried immensely to help Mr. Roy in<br />

his battle with depression.”<br />

Whether or not a judge agrees will determine<br />

whether Carter ends up doing jail time for her<br />

texts: If she is found guilty of manslaughter, she<br />

faces up to 20 years in prison. Legal questions<br />

aside, one fact is painfully clear, according to<br />

Roy’s friend Murdock. “In the moment he needed<br />

a friend the most, when he needed the most help,<br />

she did the opposite,” Murdock said. “She’ll have<br />

to live with that for the rest of her life.”<br />

To the rest of the world, George and Amal<br />

Clooney are an Oscar-winning Hollywood<br />

star and a global human-rights power player,<br />

but to their families, they are simply<br />

new parents: head over heels in love with<br />

their newborn twins, Alexander and Ella,<br />

and finding their way through the magical<br />

if sleep-deprived blur of suddenly being<br />

Mom and Dad. By all signs they’re naturals.<br />

“Oh my God, they were so beautiful, so happy, so<br />

contented,” says Amal’s mother, Baria Alamuddin,<br />

who was on hand for the twins’ <strong>June</strong> 6 delivery at a<br />

London hospital. “You just look at them and you feel<br />

like they’ve been a mother and father for their whole<br />

lives—the way they held the babies, the way they<br />

looked at them. It was indescribable joy and pride.”<br />

Within a few hours of the birth, the couple set<br />

up a video chat with George’s sister Adelia and parents,<br />

Nick and Nina Clooney, who were nervously<br />

awaiting the debut from their home in Kentucky.<br />

“It was magnificent,” says Nick, who says the babies<br />

were awake and active. “These are two perfect<br />

picture-postcard babies! They were in Amal’s<br />

arms, and they were both stunning. It was perfect. It<br />

was cliché perfect.” Somehow<br />

Amal still looked sparkling:<br />

“You know 1940s movies<br />

where the women just had a<br />

‘He is<br />

going to<br />

be an<br />

dad, and<br />

mother’<br />

baby and they looked gorgeous?”<br />

Nick says. “My God!”<br />

After sharing their happiness<br />

with their families,<br />

the Clooneys announced<br />

the arrivals to the rest of the<br />

world with a typically witty<br />

statement: “Ella, Alexander<br />

and Amal are all healthy, happy<br />

and doing fine. George is<br />

sedated and should recover<br />

in a few days.” Says Nick with<br />

a laugh: “Everything serious<br />

has to be funny, or nobody<br />

believes it in our family!”<br />

Not so long ago, such a portrait of domestic<br />

bliss—much less daily diaper duty à deux—seemed<br />

an unlikely prospect for George, 56. While he’s a<br />

favorite among his friends’ kids (“My son thinks<br />

he’s a very cool dude,” Sandra Bullock has said of<br />

her Gravity costar), becoming a father wasn’t high<br />

on his bucket list. “I think it’s the most responsible<br />

thing you can do, to have kids. I don’t have that gene<br />

that people have to replicate,” the actor told <strong>People</strong><br />

in 2006. Still, George left open the door, allowing,<br />

“But everything in my life has changed over time.”<br />

So what changed? In a word: Amal. Since he<br />

39, in 2013, George’s second<br />

act has taken a wonderfully<br />

unexpected turn. “All I know<br />

is that [Amal] sort of changed<br />

everything in terms of what<br />

I thought my future—my<br />

personal future—was going<br />

to be,” George told <strong>People</strong> in<br />

seven months of dating. “We sure are having fun!”<br />

gushed George to<strong>People</strong>around the first anniversary<br />

of their wedding, a four-day affair held<br />

in Venice in September 2014.<br />

Nick Clooney suspected early on that<br />

Amal would forever change the direction<br />

of his son’s life. He was with George the<br />

day he first met Amal—who tagged along<br />

to a dinner with mutual friends in 2013—<br />

and recalls witnessing the sparks fly. “She<br />

was so remarkable and he was so remarkable<br />

around her. It was just different than<br />

all the other relationships I had seen him<br />

in,” he says. “I really think by the time that<br />

first [meeting] was over, his and her fates<br />

were sealed.” Until then, George, whose<br />

three-year first marriage to Talia Balsam<br />

ended in divorce in 1992, had been cautious<br />

about the prospect of settling down.<br />

“I knew what his concern was. . . . He had<br />

seen what a high degree of success can<br />

do to a relationship,” says Nick. “He was smart. He<br />

waited until the time that he could handle it, and he<br />

waited until he found a person who could handle it<br />

as well.” When George talked about not seeing kids<br />

in his future, “I would listen to him patiently and<br />

then finally step in and say, ‘George, some astounding<br />

woman is going to knock your socks off, end of<br />

story.’ And it’s exactly what happened.”<br />

The couple’s bond was on display when Amal<br />

they might be expecting, the Clooneys didn’t confirm<br />

the news publicly until late February, though<br />

they had quietly confided in their families and<br />

close friends early on. “I almost started crying,”<br />

his buddy Matt Damon told Entertainment Tonight.<br />

“I was so happy for him.”<br />

Like any new parent, George “is excited but nervous,”<br />

according to a source close to the couple’s<br />

circle. “It’s going to be an adventure. We’ve sort of<br />

embraced it all . . . with arms wide open,” he told<br />

the French program Rencontres de Cinéma in February.<br />

As the big day approached, the two stayed<br />

close to their countryside home west of London<br />

and were spotted strolling hand-in-hand along the<br />

riverbank nearby. They entertained family and<br />

friends—including Cindy Crawford and Rande<br />

Gerber (who flew in last month as a surprise for<br />

George’s 56th birthday) and former U.S. President<br />

Barack Obama—at their newly renovated $12 million<br />

Georgian mansion. Boasting a pool, theater,<br />

tennis court and sprawling front lawn (neighbors<br />

might catch George atop his giant lawn mower, a<br />

gift from Amal for his 55th birthday), the estate is<br />

just one spot the twins can call home. (The Clooneys<br />

also have residences in L.A., Mexico and Lake<br />

Como, Italy.)<br />

But while Ella and Alexander’s passports will<br />

no doubt be full, their lives will be even fuller. “I’ve<br />

been telling George since he was 30 that I thought<br />

he would be a great parent,” says Nick Clooney.<br />

“This change is more profound than any change in<br />

his life, and he is excited.” Baria Alamuddin is still<br />

moved by the “indescribable joy” she witnessed after<br />

the twins were born (not to mention her amusement<br />

at witnessing George in blue scrubs “similar<br />

to the ones he wore in ER”). “Seeing these two angels,<br />

these stunningly beautiful babies . . . cuddled<br />

together, and seeing the joy on Amal and George’s<br />

faces, it’s one of those deeply felt beautiful feelings<br />

you can’t express in words,” she says. ”These babies<br />

are going to add so much joy to their lives.”<br />

Toddler Chic<br />

“I had one problem with my<br />

mom—she would cut<br />

my bangs too short, and<br />

I hated it,” Keaton says.<br />

“I like those glasses, though.<br />

I could use them now.”<br />

Big-Hair Days<br />

“In high school I was consumed<br />

by hairspray. I refused to be in<br />

the wind. I look like an idiot.”<br />

Age of<br />

Aquarius<br />

After winning a role<br />

in Hair on Broadway<br />

in 1968, Keaton was<br />

told to lose weight.<br />

“That was the<br />

start of my bulimia<br />

period,” she says.<br />

“I became a master<br />

at hiding. Analysis<br />

got me out of it.”<br />

Afew days before she<br />

accepted her Lifetime<br />

Achievement Award<br />

from theAmericanFilm<br />

Institute, Diane Keaton<br />

was a bundle of nerves. What if she<br />

stopped the show—and not in a good way?<br />

The event “goes on endlessly, and then<br />

I have to speak,” she told <strong>People</strong>. “What<br />

I would like to do is drink, but I don’t<br />

want to weave up there and fall down!”<br />

Luckily, she remained upright<br />

through the star-studded <strong>June</strong> 8 gala,<br />

which airs <strong>June</strong> 15 on TNT, as peers<br />

including Meryl Streep and her ex<br />

Woody Allen paid tribute. “I’m honored,<br />

but it’s like a retirement party!”<br />

jokes Keaton, 71. Sure, Streep got the<br />

award 13 years ago, and she’s hardly out<br />

to pasture, “but that’s Meryl,” Keaton<br />

says. “Some of us are more . . . human.”<br />

That humanness, of course, goes a long<br />

way toward explaining Keaton’s success.<br />

From Annie Hall through Something’s<br />

Gotta Give, the L.A. native has projected a<br />

kooky, relatable vulnerability.<br />

There’s<br />

also her acting skill<br />

and comic genius—<br />

but she downplays<br />

those. “I don’t know<br />

what playing a character<br />

means,” she<br />

says. “What I really<br />

do is the best I can<br />

do with me.”<br />

‘I tried<br />

modeling<br />

classes,<br />

but they<br />

weren’t<br />

for me.<br />

I was gonna<br />

go my<br />

own way’<br />

Married to<br />

the Mob<br />

Though she and<br />

Al Pacino never<br />

wed, Keaton played<br />

his wife in 1972’s<br />

The Godfather<br />

and counts him<br />

among her “many<br />

loves.” “Look at<br />

that laugh. How<br />

adorable is he? But<br />

It was two times as<br />

big as my head.”<br />

Casino lights danced across the windshield<br />

In the passenger seat, 25-year-old<br />

Tupac Shakur waved to fans jamming<br />

the sidewalks, eager to see the crown<br />

prince of rap. Five years after his ascent,<br />

his luck was about to run out. Just after<br />

11:15 p.m. on the night of Sept. 7, 1996, a<br />

white Cadillac pulled alongside his car<br />

at a red light. An unknown hand<br />

sprayed the BMW with bullets, filling<br />

the interior with blood and glass. Struck<br />

four times, Shakur would die six days<br />

later at a local hospital. It has been 21<br />

TUPAC SHAKUR’S MURDER<br />

WHAT REALLY<br />

HAPPENED?<br />

Two decades after he was gunned<br />

down at age 25, a new film resurfaces<br />

the debate surrounding the rap icon’s<br />

dangerous life and mysterious death<br />

By JORDAN RUNTAGH


A BOLD TALENT<br />

1. Shakur (in an undated photo)<br />

spent his earliest years in New<br />

York City. 2. After her son’s<br />

murder, Afeni (with Shakur) “was<br />

angry that it happened, but she<br />

was more angry, I think, that it<br />

was trivialized,” says her former<br />

attorney. 3. A talented actor,<br />

Shakur costarred with Janet<br />

Jackson in 1993’s Poetic Justice.<br />

the still-unsolved murder is reigniting with the<br />

<strong>June</strong> 16 release of All Eyez on Me, a biopic starring<br />

newcomer Demetrius Shipp Jr. that details the<br />

Grammy-winning rapper’s tough early years, his<br />

rise to global fame and his shocking end. “That day<br />

was very emotional,” music industry veteran and<br />

Eyez producer L.T. Hutton says of first hearing the<br />

news of his friend’s death. But the film, he adds, is<br />

also focused on “what fueled his journey.”<br />

It’s a journey that led Shakur from the streets to<br />

the world stage. Born Lesane Parish Crooks in New<br />

York City’s East Harlem on <strong>June</strong> 16, 1971, Shakur<br />

was steeped in turbulence from birth: His mother,<br />

Afeni, was a member of the Black Panthers and his<br />

stepfather, Mutulu Shakur, was a black nationalist<br />

on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. He was rechristened<br />

a year after his birth, named after a martyred Peruvian<br />

warrior. After moving to Baltimore—where he<br />

befriended budding actress Jada Pinkett before she<br />

found fame—Shakur later settled in Northern California<br />

as a teen. He developed an interest in poetry<br />

that formed the foundation of his rap verses, and<br />

he once wrote of his lyrics, “They are about what<br />

happens in the real world.”<br />

Initially part of the hip-hop collective Digital Underground,<br />

he signed a solo deal in 1991, releasing<br />

Shipp, 28, landed his<br />

debut role in All<br />

Eyez on Me when a<br />

friend suggested he<br />

audition back in<br />

2011, given his resemblance<br />

to Tupac.<br />

“I never aspired to<br />

act,” says the star,<br />

“so this is going to<br />

be a whole new world<br />

I’ve entered and<br />

something totally<br />

unexpected.”<br />

his debut, 2Pacalypse Now. The songs, detailing police<br />

brutality and drug dealing, touched off a political<br />

furor that led then-Vice President Dan Quayle<br />

to denounce Shakur’s music, saying, “It has no<br />

place in our society.” Despite the controversy, the<br />

album went gold, paving the way for future smashes<br />

including Me Against the World—which featured<br />

the touching tribute to his mother, “Dear Mama.”<br />

But Shakur’s success was derailed in 1994 when<br />

he was convicted of sexually abusing a 19-yearold<br />

fan in a hotel room and sentenced to up to<br />

4 1 ⁄2 years in prison. (Shakur always maintained<br />

his innocence.) The day before the verdict, Shakur<br />

was shot five times in the lobby of a New York City<br />

recording studio. He believed the attack had been<br />

orchestrated by rival rapper and friend-turned-foe<br />

Christopher “Biggie Smalls” Wallace, a.k.a. The Notorious<br />

B.I.G. (Smalls always denied involvement.)<br />

While he was incarcerated, Marion “Suge”<br />

Knight, founder of Death Row Records, offered<br />

to pay for an appeal if Shakur signed to his label.<br />

Knight was a known affiliate of the L.A. street gang<br />

the Mob Piru, then locked in a deadly rivalry with<br />

the Compton Crips. An LAPD source tells <strong>People</strong>,<br />

“Mob Piru was built off of Death Row. Suge put<br />

them on the map.” When Knight paid his $1.4 mil-<br />

lion appellate bond in October 1995, it made Shakur<br />

an enemy of the Crips—and, according to the LAPD<br />

source, put him on a collision course with death.<br />

The day of his murder, Shakur was involved in a<br />

brawl with Crips member Orlando Anderson at the<br />

MGM Grand casino. Earlier, Anderson had tried to<br />

steal a medallion from one of Shakur’s entourage<br />

and a member of Mob Piru, sparking a fistfight.<br />

Spotting Anderson at the casino, the hot-tempered<br />

rapper attacked. The LAPD source says that in the<br />

years since, a former leader of the Crips has admitted<br />

Shakur’s death was revenge for this beating. “It<br />

was simple retaliation: You mess with one of ours,<br />

we will mess with one of yours,” says the source. “If<br />

Orlando had never been jumped in the hotel, they<br />

never would have killed Tupac that night.”<br />

Still, his death continues to spawn a complex<br />

tangle of conflicting theories. Some have speculated<br />

that Knight, the driver of the fatal BMW, conspired<br />

to have Shakur killed to prevent him from<br />

starting his own label. One recent documentary<br />

claimed that Shakur was the accidental victim of a<br />

plot to assassinate Knight hatched by the mogul’s<br />

wife, Sharitha. (She strongly denied the reports to<br />

<strong>People</strong>, saying, “If I wanted to kill Suge, believe me,<br />

his ass would be dead.”)<br />

The most prevalent legend is that Shakur’s<br />

death was the result of the East Coast-<br />

West Coast hip-hop feud with Biggie<br />

Smalls. The pair had already traded shots<br />

on a number of diss tracks. Smalls’s murder<br />

six months later in a similarly unsolved<br />

drive-by would forever link them in death,<br />

but the LAPD source doubts the killings<br />

stemmed from a rap rivalry. “The media<br />

blew up the East Coast-West Coast thing,”<br />

says the source. “Mob Piru were responsible<br />

for Biggie’s death, and the Compton Crips were<br />

responsible for Tupac’s. Biggie and Tupac ended<br />

up being pawns in this whole thing.”<br />

Anderson was killed in an unrelated shootout a<br />

year after the murder, denying justice for Shakur’s<br />

mother, who died in 2016. “She felt that nobody was<br />

trying to find out what really happened,” says Donald<br />

David, who worked with Afeni Shakur to manage<br />

her son’s estate. “She never felt a sense of closure.”<br />

With All Eyez on Me, Hutton hopes to offer that to<br />

fans. “Tupac wanted to be a beacon of light,” says the<br />

producer, who feels the thug-life persona belied the<br />

star’s true character. “He didn’t want people to necessarily<br />

be like him but to use his life as an example.<br />

We’ll never know what he could have become.”<br />

Travis Mills’s whole life<br />

course changed in one<br />

shocking moment when,<br />

on April 10, 2012, during<br />

his third tour of duty in<br />

Afghanistan, he unwittingly put his<br />

backpack down on a hidden IED. “The<br />

bomb took my right arm and right<br />

leg,” he says. His left leg was snapped<br />

through the bone, and his left wrist and<br />

hand were badly mangled. “I didn’t<br />

think I was gonna live,” he says.<br />

Against all odds, Mills, now 30, pulled<br />

through—eventually losing both his<br />

left leg and hand, enduring a 19-month<br />

recovery to become one of only five<br />

quadruple-amputee service members<br />

who have survived their injuries. Now,<br />

through the Travis Mills Foundation,<br />

which he started in 2014, he’s helping<br />

other injured vets achieve their own<br />

success. The nonprofit’s latest project<br />

is their Veterans Retreat, a 16-room,<br />

ADA-compliant vacation home in the<br />

Belgrade Lakes region of Maine, where<br />

military families with special needs<br />

can come to relax, have fun and share<br />

their experience with others facing<br />

similar challenges—all free of charge.<br />

THE THIS IS US STAR<br />

OPENS UP ABOUT HIS<br />

RISE TO FAME—AND<br />

HIS FANS’ OBSESSION<br />

WITH HIS DEATH<br />

By JESS CAGLE<br />

He’s America’s favorite<br />

TV dad: Jack Pearson, the<br />

flawed but devoted father on<br />

NBC’s time-shifting drama<br />

This Is Us. Fans of the show<br />

are also head over heels for<br />

the man who plays him—<br />

Milo Ventimiglia, 39.<br />

A native of Anaheim, Calif.,<br />

Ventimiglia is a TV veteran<br />

who got his big break on<br />

Gilmore Girls and starred<br />

on Heroes. In the latest episode<br />

of The Jess Cagle Interview,<br />

Ventimiglia sat down with<br />

<strong>People</strong>’s editor-in-chief<br />

to discuss his life, Jack’s<br />

death and more.<br />

On This Is Us with<br />

Mandy Moore.<br />

Since the Will and Grace<br />

reboot will be on NBC<br />

this fall, do you imagine<br />

any kind of crossover<br />

with This Is Us?<br />

I would absolutely<br />

go on Will and Grace<br />

and play the neighbor!<br />

The handyman neighbor<br />

or something.<br />

How has Jack evolved over the<br />

course of the first season of This Is Us?<br />

I think the greatest change that I<br />

noticed was just the depth that this<br />

man has. In the beginning, when you<br />

meet him, [he has] this youthful<br />

optimism...then to see him evolve and<br />

‘I’m a lot<br />

like Jack,<br />

and he’s<br />

like me . . .<br />

especially<br />

where I am<br />

right now<br />

as a man’<br />

Clean-Cut Cutie<br />

“I grew up in a vegetarian<br />

house,” says Ventimiglia<br />

(in 1995). He also gave up<br />

alcohol at age 22: “I didn’t<br />

have time for it. I wanted<br />

to stay focused on acting.”<br />

come to understand the real meaning of his<br />

life . . . it gets deeper into the sense of responsibility<br />

that I need to raise this family, support this family,<br />

maybe even die for this family.<br />

When we first met Jack he was naked.<br />

What was the significance of that?<br />

It wasn’t gratuitous. It honestly felt like here’s<br />

a man who’s in his home with his wife, and<br />

he’s about to get his birthday treat. ...It was<br />

human. I didn’t think about the camera . . .<br />

because I thought it was on Mandy<br />

[Moore, who plays his wife, Rebecca].<br />

So when the shot actually opened up, I’m<br />

like, “Whoa . . . that’s my ass.”<br />

What do fans say when they come<br />

up to you?<br />

It’s all over the world. Right now the<br />

No. 1 comment I get is, “Tell me how<br />

you die”—which stung a little bit when I<br />

would first get that question.<br />

<strong>People</strong> care about the character. When<br />

someone you know dies, one of your first<br />

questions is “How did they die?”<br />

It wasn’t lost on [show creator] Dan Fogelman<br />

and me that people were a bit up in arms that<br />

they didn’t find out how Jack died at the end<br />

[of the season]. That question may not get<br />

completely answered but will be addressed<br />

very early on when we come back in September.<br />

The show can go anywhere in time.<br />

Are there parts of Jack’s life you want to go to?<br />

Right now I’m wanting to get back to Jack in<br />

his 50s . . . just to know how he can get his family<br />

back on track. Seeing Jack and Rebecca in<br />

disrepair, it breaks my heart too.<br />

My father was a Vietnam vet, and before the<br />

conversation even came up about Jack’s<br />

history, I’d always seen Jack as a Vietnam vet,<br />

and I started drawing these similarities between<br />

Jack and my father. I know the war affected him,<br />

and I know the names of his friends who died.<br />

Were your first years in Hollywood hard?<br />

Absolutely. You hear no, no, no, no, no. . . . At<br />

times people told me, “Could you stop doing that<br />

thing with your mouth where your lip is going<br />

down?” I’m like, “Hey, I was born this way.”<br />

What is the lip thing?<br />

I’ve got a crooked mouth. I was born with dead<br />

nerves. If I’m running and yelling in a scene, I<br />

can’t control it. It gets so crooked.<br />

Imagine where you’d be . . .<br />

If I had a straight smile!<br />

You’d be a real success.<br />

Or not! I don’t know....<br />

How did you feel about revisiting<br />

Gilmore Girls [in last year’s revival]?<br />

It was fun. I’m happy I got to step back<br />

into Jess’s leather jacket for a moment.<br />

What do you think Jess’s feelings<br />

about Rory are?<br />

I think he’s never going to not love her.<br />

Now that doesn’t mean it’s a romantic<br />

love. The caveat: I didn’t write the show, so<br />

I really don’t know.<br />

In the past you’ve dated a couple of costars. The<br />

attention on that was probably not comfortable<br />

for you. What have you learned about navigating<br />

fame and keeping private stuff private?<br />

It’s not easy. It would upset me if someone<br />

watching a show was thinking about me and<br />

they’re not thinking about what the character<br />

is experiencing. I don’t think of myself as a<br />

celebrity. I don’t think of myself as anything<br />

more than a person who sits in your living room<br />

with you, telling you a story. I just happen to<br />

be in 16 million living rooms. •<br />

KIDNAPPED<br />

NIGERIAN<br />

OurJourney<br />

GIRLS<br />

to Freedom<br />

IN APRIL 2014 SCHOOLGIRLS JOY BISHARA AND LYDIA POGU SURVIVED<br />

A NIGHT OF TERROR AT THE HANDS OF INSURGENTS BOKO HARAM.<br />

HERE IS THE STORY OF THEIR HARROWING ESCAPE By ABIGAIL PESTA<br />

It was late on the night of April 14, 2014, in the Nigerian town<br />

of Chibok when two armed men burst into the Government<br />

Girls Secondary School, where seniors Joy Bishara, then 17,<br />

and Lydia Pogu, then 16, were among hundreds of teenage<br />

girls in their beds, fast asleep. Carrying guns, the men began<br />

herding the frightened girls into a group, as more armed men<br />

arrived—now shouting, “Allahu akbar!” (“God is great” in<br />

Arabic), the telltale rallying cry of Nigeria’s ruthless terrorist<br />

group Boko Haram. “We were all crying and screaming,” says<br />

Joy, recalling how, as they fired their guns into the air, the<br />

terrorists started bragging about burning down schools and<br />

churches and slaughtering innocent pastors and students.<br />

“They told us to keep quiet or else they’re going to kill us.”<br />

Boko Haram kidnapped nearly 300 girls that night, spiriting<br />

them away into the dense African bush. Weeks later, in<br />

early May, the group released a video showing its leader in<br />

fatigues, threatening to sell the girls as slaves—yet another<br />

atrocity in the rebels’ ongoing reign of terror. Boko Haram’s<br />

insurgency began in 2009 and has since become a source of<br />

fear and chaos, massacring thousands and driving millions<br />

from their homes in recent years, in a bid to create an Islamic<br />

state and wipe out Western influence from the country’s<br />

schools. With this group of girls’ kidnapping, the<br />

world took notice, rallying around the hashtag<br />

#BringBackOurGirls, which went viral within<br />

weeks of the abduction. Politicians and celebrities<br />

alike—including Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama,<br />

Ellen DeGeneres and Angelina Jolie—called for<br />

the girls’ safe return. Lydia, now 19, and Joy, now<br />

20, were among the few dozen who managed to<br />

escape that same night. And, while more than 100<br />

girls have since been released as a result of government<br />

negotiations with Boko Haram (82 were sent<br />

home in exchange for five Boko Haram prisoners<br />

just this past May), more than 100 still remain<br />

missing. Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari<br />

has vowed to bring all the girls back, tweeting in<br />

January, “I’m hopeful that soon Chibok community,<br />

Nigeria and, indeed, the world, will welcome<br />

the remaining girls back home.”<br />

In the meantime Lydia and Joy have spent nearly<br />

three years carving out a new life in America. With<br />

help from a nonprofit human rights group in Virginia<br />

called the Jubilee Campaign, they arrived<br />

here in August 2014, attending boarding school<br />

for two years in Virginia before transferring last<br />

summer to the Canyonville Christian Academy, a<br />

boarding school nestled in the scenic mountains<br />

of Oregon. On <strong>June</strong> 3 the girls graduated from the<br />

academy, and this fall both will attend college at<br />

Southeastern University in Lakeland, Fla. After<br />

growing up in modest homes in Chibok, with no<br />

running water and no computers, both say their<br />

lives today—and the education and opportunities<br />

that lie ahead—seem like “a dream” come true.<br />

THE MISSING GIRLS<br />

That dream seemed impossible on that terrifying<br />

night at their school in Nigeria. “They say if each<br />

girl try to run, they will shoot the girl,” Lydia says,<br />

recalling how the terrorists took control, setting<br />

fires and looting supplies. “Then we start seeing<br />

the burning everywhere.” As the school’s compound<br />

went up in flames around them, the men<br />

threw stolen food into waiting cars and ordered<br />

the girls to follow on foot. They walked fast, some<br />

of them without shoes, down a dusty back road to<br />

a bridge, where they were all forced to pile into<br />

three open-air trucks. “I was thinking, ‘Am I ever<br />

going to see my mom again?’” says Joy, who<br />

remembers “many, many” girls jammed into each<br />

vehicle. “They said to live is to enter the truck, to<br />

die is to stay outside,” she adds, noting that her<br />

truck was so high off the ground, she had to use a<br />

small car as a step-up to get in. The convoy of<br />

trucks and girls roared off, with cars full of<br />

armed men surrounding them on all sides.<br />

On the trucks the terrified girls frantically<br />

discussed jumping. Lydia recalls a friend<br />

saying it was better to take the risk than to<br />

disappear forever—right before she jumped.<br />

Lydia prayed, then followed her friend, landing<br />

hard on the ground, a searing pain in her<br />

hips as she scrambled up and, right behind her<br />

friend, headed blindly into the thick, thorny<br />

bushes. “We ran and ran,” she says, “[hoping]<br />

we would find our way in the darkness.”<br />

Joy was debating whether to jump as well. She<br />

heard a girl say it would be better to die there—at<br />

least their parents would find a corpse—and felt a<br />

surge of courage: “Something is like, ‘Joy, you cannot,’<br />

and I’m like, ‘Yes I can.’” She leaped, landing<br />

on her stomach before catching her breath and<br />

fleeing with two of her classmates into the brush.<br />

After that they just kept running. Dawn broke,<br />

and Lydia and her friend were covered in blood<br />

from thorns, their clothes torn. They came upon<br />

a village where people had spent the night hiding<br />

in the bushes, afraid that Boko Haram, who had<br />

been there just hours before, would burn down<br />

their homes. They pointed the girls toward home<br />

and told them to “run in a zigzag,” says Lydia, because<br />

it would be harder for anyone to shoot them.<br />

Meanwhile, Joy and her two classmates—<br />

‘WE ARE ALL<br />

T I R E D . . .<br />

WE ARE<br />

BLEEDING,<br />

BUT WE KEEP<br />

—JOY BISHARA<br />

exhausted and afraid to stop, especially now in<br />

daylight—had found a road where they managed to<br />

stop a man on a motorcycle. “We ask him to please<br />

take us back home. He ask, ‘Who are you?’ We were<br />

scared. We don’t want to tell,” says Joy, who ultimately<br />

confided in the man, who took them home.<br />

Lydia and her friend lucked out as well, and shortly<br />

after leaving the village, they came to a road and<br />

stopped a man who drove them home.<br />

Back in Chibok, with the school destroyed and<br />

deserted, friends and family feared the worst. At<br />

Joy’s home relatives were comforting her distraught<br />

mom when she arrived—dirty and bloodied,<br />

her school uniform in shreds. “It was like<br />

someone died already,” says Joy, who still carries<br />

the deep scars on her legs from that horrific night.<br />

“When my mom saw me, she started crying,” says<br />

Lydia, adding that she was in so much pain from her<br />

wounds “I felt like I’m not going to be alive again.<br />

For almost two weeks I [couldn’t] take a shower.”<br />

BRIGHT FUTURE<br />

strong no matter<br />

what happens<br />

in your life,” says<br />

Lydia.<br />

Over the next few monthsJoy and Lydia<br />

lived in fear of Boko Haram coming back<br />

to get them—sometimes the girls slept<br />

outside, where they felt it would be easier<br />

to hide. So when they were given the<br />

chance to finish school in America, they<br />

didn’t hesitate. “To pick up their dreams<br />

where they left them—in a safe place—was<br />

an easy decision,” says Doug Wead, president<br />

of the Canyonville Christian Academy.<br />

“They’re determined to outwit their<br />

captors by turning their grisly nightmare<br />

into something hugely triumphant.”<br />

That transition to teenage life in America has been<br />

an exciting challenge for the two girls. Both<br />

arrived knowing just a little English, which meant<br />

they had to learn fast. Joy, whose father forbade<br />

her to have a cellphone while growing up in Chibok,<br />

was shocked to see so many kids with their<br />

own phones, tablets and gadgets and wondered if<br />

there would ever be an end to the cold weather in<br />

Oregon. Lydia, who grew up wearing wrap skirts<br />

and traditional dresses, was taken aback by all the<br />

women in pants. “When I first came here, I said I<br />

would never wear pants,” she laughs, admitting<br />

she loves her skinny jeans—if not American food.<br />

—LYDIA POGU<br />

Both girls prefer Nigerian spicy noodles<br />

and rice to potato chips or pizza.<br />

The hardest part has been missing the<br />

people back home; neither girl has seen<br />

her family since coming to the States in<br />

August 2014. Joy is the oldest of seven—<br />

all brothers. Her father works as a policeman,<br />

while her mother cares for the<br />

brothers. Her dad farms and works for a<br />

local church; her mom cares for the kids.<br />

The girls worry about their families as<br />

the conflict continues to rage but keep in<br />

touch by phone as much as possible.<br />

These days they’re also putting the painful past<br />

behind them and looking ahead to college and life<br />

on campus. (They have a GoFundMe page to help<br />

with expenses: gofundme.com/JoyLydiaChibok<br />

“to help my people, my country,” she says. Joy<br />

wants to be doctor. In Nigeria she saw sick people<br />

denied care because they were poor. “What I want<br />

to do is save lives,” she says—because, as she and<br />

Lydia know all too well, there are still many lives left<br />

to save. During her emotional graduation speech,<br />

Joy says, “I forgive the people who hurt me. I have<br />

nothing against them. I am praying for the return of<br />

my classmates to their parents.” •<br />

TREND TO TRY<br />

The Hottest Shades<br />

YOU’LL SEE THESE 3 SUNGLASSES EVERYWHERE THIS SUMMER<br />

| SEMI-WIRE FRAMES<br />

METALLIC BROW-BAR<br />

“The printed design above the eye makes<br />

this classic shape feel really modern,” says<br />

Anna Lance of DIFF Eyewear. Ease into<br />

the look with wearable tortoiseshell.<br />

Want to go bolder? Try a colorful pattern.<br />

The omnipresent millennial-pink trend made<br />

its way to sunnies, with this shade popping<br />

up on pieces of every shape and size. “It’s<br />

a universally uplifting color,” explains Stacey<br />

Bendet, Alice + Olivia’s creative director.<br />

Silver or gold accents above the bridge and<br />

on the wire temples add instant glam. “No<br />

matter what your personal style is, these are<br />

cool and versatile,” says Privé Revaux creative<br />

directors Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.<br />

PROTECT YOUR EYES! The Vision Council, a nonprofit dedicated to eye-care education, reports only 31 percent of American adults wear sunglasses<br />

every time they go outside. But the sun’s harmful rays can lead to cancer, trouble seeing, sunburned eyes (even on gray days), swollen eyes, wrinkles and<br />

more. Look for lenses that block both UVA and UVB rays—all of the pieces on this page do!—and get in the habit of wearing them all the time.<br />

What inspired this<br />

We wanted to do<br />

something edgy to<br />

show off the neckline<br />

of the dress. Gwen<br />

Stefani and Kate’s<br />

sister Rooney were<br />

our references.<br />

How did you get<br />

her hair so smooth?<br />

I used a flatiron<br />

because if there are<br />

bumps when you pull<br />

it back, and it’s not<br />

supertight and sleek,<br />

it kind of ruins the<br />

whole look.<br />

The visible elastics<br />

are a cool touch.<br />

I felt like if I covered<br />

them up, it would<br />

lose the edge.<br />

What did Kate say?<br />

She texted me that<br />

night that she was so<br />

happy! I love that she<br />

li kes to do something<br />

different, not just<br />

waves. Its It’s fun for me.<br />

Tell us about this<br />

gorgeous berry look.<br />

I love doing cranberries<br />

and plums on her. They<br />

look so good on her skin<br />

tone. The trick is<br />

balance: I did a bold<br />

matte lip, then I went<br />

softer on the color for<br />

her eyes and cheeks.<br />

Her skin looks<br />

amazing too.<br />

I actually don’t go that<br />

heavy-handed on the<br />

foundation. I pat a little<br />

on with a damp sponge.<br />

I also love to highlight<br />

her cheekbones by<br />

sculpting them with<br />

blush, not bronzer.<br />

Is she a makeup lover?<br />

I’ve worked with her for<br />

12 years, and she doesn’t<br />

sit and stare in the<br />

mirror for a long time,<br />

let’s put it that way! But<br />

we’ve become very<br />

playful in highlighting<br />

her different features,<br />

which I really love.<br />

IN BUTTER BRINGS THE<br />

FLAVOR TO LIFE,’ SAYS THE<br />

CHEF OF POINT ROYAL<br />

RESTAURANT AT THE<br />

DIPLOMAT BEACH RESORT<br />

1 ⁄ 4 cup mayonnaise<br />

2 tbsp. Dijon mustard<br />

1 1 ⁄ 2 tsp. dry mustard<br />

2 1 ⁄ 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice, divided<br />

3 ⁄ 4 tsp. kosher salt, divided<br />

1 ⁄ 2 tsp. black pepper, divided<br />

2 cups (1 lb.) plus 1 tbsp. cold<br />

unsalted butter, diced, divided<br />

12 oz. cooked shelled lobster,<br />

cut into 1 ⁄ 2- to 1-in. pieces<br />

4 top-split hot dog or brioche buns<br />

8 Bibb lettuce leaves<br />

1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil<br />

cold unsalted butter, about 1 tablespoon<br />

at a time, and cook, whisking constantly,<br />

1 ⁄ 8 teaspoon pepper. Reduce heat to low,<br />

and stir in lobster. Keep warm over low<br />

mixture over each roll. Drizzle with<br />

spicy mayo and sprinkle with chives.<br />

PIPPA MIDDLETON AND HER NEW HUSBAND,<br />

financier James Matthews, may not officially be<br />

royalty, but they vacation like kings. Pippa’s in-laws,<br />

David and Jane Matthews, own the crown jewel of<br />

St. Bart’s, the exclusive Eden Rock hotel. The couple<br />

bought the property in 1995 and raised their children on<br />

the Caribbean island’s nine square miles of sandy paradise.<br />

The Eden Rock has been an A-list getaway since it was<br />

built around 1950 by the eccentric aviator Rémy de<br />

Haenen, who used it as a private hideaway for friends like VONGERICHTEN‘S<br />

Greta Garbo and Howard Hughes. Today its clientele<br />

as Villa Rockstar featuring a private whiskey bar, two pools and a<br />

used to record “Imagine.” “It was like waking up in a dream,“ says<br />

The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Melissa Gorga, who visited<br />

the Eden Rock last week with her husband, Joe. “The views were<br />

spectacular, the water was amazing, and the lunch there was the<br />

best. We can’t wait to go back.” —MACKENZIE SCHMIDT<br />

Hopkins<br />

THE OSCAR<br />

WINNER, 79,<br />

STARS IN THE<br />

NEW MOVIE<br />

TRANSFORMERS:<br />

THE LAST KNIGHT<br />

Last time I danced<br />

Oh, I don’t dance. My wife<br />

[Stella Arroyave] tries to<br />

get me to dance, but I hate<br />

it. I don’t play sports; I don’t<br />

dance. No, I’m a real stick<br />

in the mud.<br />

Last time I was<br />

recognized<br />

I was in a restaurant, and<br />

some people wanted a<br />

photograph with me. It’s<br />

all selfies now. They’ll<br />

apologize, and I say, “Don’t<br />

apologize, you paid for my<br />

salary!” I never get impatient;<br />

it’s wonderful.<br />

Last injury<br />

I slipped in the bathroom in<br />

Vienna and broke my ankle.<br />

I was hobbling around and<br />

didn’t know until I went to<br />

the doctor in London, and he<br />

said, “How long have you been<br />

walking around like this?” I<br />

said, “A week.” He said, “Are<br />

you crazy?” I’m pretty tough.<br />

Last indulgence<br />

Oh yes, my wife had some<br />

almond-flavored cookies<br />

the other day. That was<br />

on Sunday, so I thought,<br />

“Well, it’s Sunday, why not?”<br />

So I ate the whole pack.<br />

I can’t just have one, I have<br />

to have a dozen.<br />

Last DIY<br />

I’m useless. I can’t even<br />

knock a nail in the wall.<br />

But it’s a great excuse being<br />

an actor. “How can you<br />

ask me? I’m just a stupid<br />

actor!” I’m hopeless.<br />
