Rebel Wilson Shares Candid Update on Wellness Journey

Rebel Wilsonoffered fans a plainspoken check-in on where she is at with wellness and body image, and she did not sugarcoat it. On March 31, the actor posted a couple of Instagram Stories that showed her in workout attire, writing, "I don't think I'll ever have a bikini body — that's just not me," as she posed confidently looking off to the side. Wilson wore a black sports bra, matching shorts, a baseball cap, and sunglasses, standing with one hand in her pocket.

Rebel Wilson is 'grateful' for her body as she gives wellness update

Rebel Wilson followed up the message with a body wellness update, telling her fans, "But my body has carried me through this life and I am so grateful for it!" The "Pitch Perfect" star has shared swimsuit photos before, including bikini selfies in 2021 and 2022. Still, this update prioritized telling her fans how she feels in her skin rather than what she looks like.

In another story,Wilsonspelled out the routine she is trying to keep up with right now, writing, "I'm trying to get in my daily steps, do a Pilates class once or twice a week, some strength training when I can, eat as healthy as I can." She also added, "But let's face it I love sweets – so I need those GLP's [sic] from time to time to give a little help."

Additionally, Wilson posted about juggling all of this with motherhood. She shares daughter Royce Lillian with her wife,Ramona Agruma, and included a sweet photo with her child, writing, "Being a working Mum, you just try your best! Shout out to everyone trying to be the healthiest versions of themselves while dealing with a LOT!"

Wilson has talked about this mindset for years. During her "year of health" journey in 2020, she toldPEOPLE, "You never want it to be about the number, because it really isn't about that," adding, "It's about: I was doing some unhealthy things to my body and I just wanted to change it and become a healthier person."

As it was, Wilson's latest Instagram update read like a continuation of her body wellness journey, emphasizing that she is doing what she can without turning her body into a project.

Eddie Cibrian Makes Appearance in Surprise Role on 'High Potential' Before Season Finale

Eddie Cibrianmade a surprise appearance in the newest episode ofHigh Potential— but did everyone catch his scenes?

Us magazine LeAnn Rimes

During the Tuesday, March 31, episode of the hit ABC series, Cibrianhad a cameo as the mayorof Los Angeles. He originally resisted having Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) on the case but eventually shared evidence with her to help with the investigation.

According to the synopsis, "Wagner joins Morgan and the team on a hunt for the crew behind a series of heists ripping through elite private vaults." They then "uncover a far more dangerous endgame a looming cyberattack that could cripple Los Angeles' core infrastructure."

The police procedural, which premiered in September 2024,follows a high-potential intellectual— Morgan — who teams up with the LAPD to help solve murders. She gets paired up with a police officer, who is initially skeptical about Morgan's involvement with the Major Crimes unit but ultimately starts to rely on her.

Which 'High Potential' Stars Are — And Aren't — Returning for Season 2 After Several Plot Twists

Season 2 picked up with the confirmation that Morgan's ex Roman was still alive after going missing for more than a decade. The only information Morgan — and all ofUs— have is that her ex worked as an FBI informant and doesn't trust the LAPD.

HIGH POTENTIAL

"It's a pretty bumpy ride. We're going to start unpacking some pretty intense things with Morgan, as it relates to all things Roman. There are all kinds of trials and tribulations that are going to happen with the kids at home," showrunner Todd Harthan teased to Us Weekly at the time. "It's just going to get messy and complicated — hopefully in all the best ways so that the audience stays on the edge of their seats."

He continued: "Our job now as we get to the back half of the second season is to fill in some of the big blanks and progress some of the relationships. You're going to see some intense things happen between Steve Howey's character and Captain Wagner really starts to bloom in the back half. That causes some good soapy messes on multiple fronts. It's just our normal MO of just trying to mix things up and keep the audience engaged and keep them guessing."

Everything to Know About High Potential's Supersized Season 2 After Major Twist

Harthan also expressed excitementat more guest stars.

"One of the wonderful things about this particular season is now that the show is doing really well, the choices we've had for casting have been incredible," he shared. "In the back half, you're going to see some really exciting guest stars."

Harthan concluded: "We have this wonderful main cast and we're trying to recruit — just like with Steve Howey. These actors have been just incredible. They can come into our show and hang with our wonderful cast and just add their own flavor to our world. It's been exciting and you'll see there's some really cool people popping in."

High Potentialreturns to ABC Tuesday, January 6, at 9 p.m. ET. The show is streaming on Hulu.

Mike Lookinlandneeded a break after playing youngest brother Bobby on five seasons of the squeaky clean family sitcomThe Brady Bunch. And he took it.

"I lived my childhood in my 20s, because I couldn't when I was a child," Lookinland said Monday onThe Real Brady Brospodcast. "And in my 20s, I had a car and money and freedom. I was fully off the rails."

The actor was all of eight when the sitcom premiered on ABC in 1969. When it ended five seasons and five years later, he was just beginning his teenage years.

"I'm just thankful that not every man, woman, and child had a high-def camera in their pocket when I was 25, like they do now," Lookinland said, "because it would have ruined my life."

Christopher Knight, who portrayed middle brother Peter, said that their TV parents — actors Robert Reed, who played Mike, and Florence Henderson, the actress behind Carol — were a deterrent to the cast in behaving badly.

'We didn't wanna disappoint Florence and Bob," he said. "I mean, that was the beginning of it. It's like there's certain people that you just don't wanna disappoint. I think that was stronger with me with those two than it was my own parents."

And yet at least some bad behavior has come to light in the more than 50 years since the first incarnation of the Bradys went off the air. For instance, actress Maureen McCormick, who played elder sister Marcia, infamously wrote about struggling with drug addiction and an eating disorder in the years after the show.

Lookinland and many of his costars were part of the show's many reunion projects, including the psychedelicBrady Bunch Variety Hour(1976-1977) andThe Bradysseries in the '90s. Other appearances, such as when he, Knight, and Barry Williams, who played eldest brother Greg, were onThe Masked Singerin 2022, have been rare.

Lookinland married Kelly Wermuth in 1987, and the couple shares two children. He struggled with alcoholism, but said in 2013 that hehad gotten sober.

He now leads a small business that makes decorative countertops, fireplaces, benches, and other concrete items.

Five of the best used EVs you can get for dirt cheap, according to Edmunds

With volatile gasoline prices rising in recent weeks, Edmunds has seen increased shopper interest in hybrids, plug-in hybrids and fully electric vehicles. If you're thinking about going 100% electric, there's a way to save even more money: Buy used. While new EVs are more expensive than similar gas-powered vehicles, steep depreciation can actually make a 3-year-old EV more affordable than its gas counterpart. ​

A used Kona Electric is an excellent value thanks to its sporty handling and generous list of standard equipment.

Behind The Wheel

This price downturn doesn't just apply to outdated EVs either. Some of Edmunds' favorite models can be found for cheap on the used market. We included the average pricing of 2022 to 2024 models to give you an idea of what you might have to pay. Note that the range figures listed below are for when the vehicles were new. Maximum range decreases slightly as an EV's battery is used over time.

Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV

If affordability is your top priority, then you might not need to look any further than the Bolt EV and its SUV-inspired sibling, the Bolt EUV. They are the best used EVs you can get for a killer price. It's also a great value considering the Bolt's generous list of tech features, spacious cabin and easy-to-park size. The Bolt EV gets up to an EPA-estimated 259 miles of range on a full charge, while the EUV can go up to 247 miles.

Tip: The Bolt EV debuted for the 2017 model year and remained in production until 2023. (A revised Bolt is set to debut for 2027.) If your budget allows, get a 2022 or 2023 Bolt EV or EUV for the updated styling and improved technology features. The Bolt is best for people who can charge at home. Charging at public charging stations can be tediously slow.

Average 2021-2023 pricing: about $18,000

Hyundai Kona Electric

The Kona Electric is the electric version of Hyundai's pint-size crossover SUV. Like the gas-powered standard Kona, the Kona Electric is surprisingly nimble. Couple that with the instant acceleration of an electric motor and you have a small SUV that's fun to drive. Other highlights include comfortable seating and a max EPA-estimated range of more than 250 miles.

Tip: Hyundai redesigned the Kona Electric for the 2024 model year, adding more interior space and improved technology features. But we think the better value is to focus on getting a 2022 or 2023 Kona Electric. In Edmunds' testing, it was quicker than the newer model and went farther in our real-world range test.

Average 2022-2024 pricing: about $19,000

Hyundai Ioniq 5

The Ioniq 5's combination of comfort, quick charging and user-friendly interior design has consistently made it one of Edmunds' favorite electric SUVs. It's not one of the most affordable EVs when new, but used ones can be purchased at a bargain price, especially considering the long list of standard features it offers. The Hyundai also boasts a distinctive design that sets it apart from other SUVs.

Tip: Avoid the Standard Range version. It's the least expensive but is limited by its EPA-estimated 220 miles of range. All other Ioniq 5s have more range, topped by the single-motor version that can go up to 303 miles.

Average 2022-2024 pricing: about $25,000

Tesla Model 3

Your best pick for an electric sedan is the Tesla Model 3. It has a spacious interior and available advanced driver assistance systems that can make driving in traffic less fatiguing. Easy charging at Tesla's vast network of Supercharger fast-charging stations is a key bonus, and the popularity of Telsas means there are plenty of used Model 3s to choose from.

Tip: Tesla updated the Model 3 for 2024, so if it's within your budget, aim for a 2024 model or newer to take advantage of the Model 3's latest interior and exterior styling, new features and improved comfort. The Model 3 is typically offered in a base version that has the least range, a long-range version and a powerful Performance model.

Average 2022-2024 pricing: about $26,000

Audi E-tron

The Q8 E-tron debuted for the 2019 model year as Audi's first mass-produced EV. This Audi isn't a class leader, but it's still a good choice if you want a luxury electric SUV at a non-luxury price. It offers standard all-wheel drive and a lot of upscale features, including leather upholstery, ventilated front seats and a premium sound system.

Tip: The most significant drawback to the E-tron is range. A 2023 model can only go an EPA-estimated 226 miles. If you can, spend more to get a 2024 version. Renamed the Q8 E-tron, it gets a big increase to 285 miles.

Average 2022-2024 pricing: about $34,000

Edmunds says

Buying a used EV makes a lot of financial sense. If you're on the fence because of battery replacement costs, keep in mind that EVs offer an eight-year/100,000-mile battery warranty. Some brands also offer additional coverage.

German growth forecast cut as Europe scrambles to contain price shock from Iran war

BERLIN (AP) — German growth forecasts for 2026 and 2027 were cut by experts on Wednesday as governments across Europe implement measures aimed at reducing the price impact of theIran war.

APTOPIX Germany Energy Crisis

A group of five economic institutes predict German gross domestic product will expand by 0.6% this year — less than half the 1.3% they forecast in September — and by 0.9% in 2027, down from 1.4%. The economic outlook was below the government's own forecast, issuedtwo months ago, of 1% and 1.3% growth, respectively.

The Iran war has created an unwelcome new obstacle to growth across Europe. The annualinflation ratein the 21-nation euro area sped up to 2.5% in March from 1.9% the previous month. It was powered by a 4.9% increase in energy prices as the war and the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz sent fuel costs higher.

"This energy price shock is hitting a German economy in which a recovery set in last year after a several-year downturn," said Timo Wollmershäuser, an expert with the Munich-based Ifo institute, one of those that issued the joint forecast for Europe's biggest economy.

It "will dampen this recovery in Germany, but should not completely stop it," he added, pointing to plannedgovernment spendingon defense and infrastructure as one stabilizing factor. Germany's output grew 0.2% last year after shrinking for the two previous years.

Wollmershäuser argued against "short-term activism," in particular a government-mandated cut to fuel prices, which he argued would be "costly, benefit many people who don't need relief, distort the signal of scarcity from the price and keep up demand for crude oil."

Germany's response so far has been relatively cautious. On Wednesday, legislation took effect that allows gas stations to raise prices only once a day, at midday, an attempt to end cost gyrations at the pump. It also gives the national antitrust authority more powers to act against excessive fuel prices.

Some European countries have already gone further, even as the European Union's executive commission urges members to "consider the promotion of demand saving measures" and "refrain from taking measures that may increase fuel consumption."

Poland has this week implemented temporary measures including maximum fuel prices set daily by authorities, with the threat of fines ranging up to 1 million zlotys ($268,000) for companies that sell above the price cap. It also is temporarily cutting taxes on fuel.

Cuts to taxes on fuel were due to go into effect Wednesday in Austria, reducing prices at the pump. Sweden's government is proposing lower taxes on gasoline and diesel starting May 1. It already took action on another front Wednesday, halving value-added tax on food and drinks in stores or bought to take away from restaurants from 12% to 6%.

Latvia and Lithuania plan to cut duties on diesel. Non-EU Norway on Wednesday implemented temporary cuts in fuel tax that the country's parliament forced in a vote last week.

Still, the EU's energy commissionerwarned on Tuesdaythat oil and gas prices won't return to normal levels soon even if peace comes quickly in the Middle East.

Wollmershäuser said the German forecast was based on an assumption that the Strait of Hormuz will be passable again in the second quarter and energy prices will drop from summer onward, "but without reaching the prewar level."

The disruption comes as Chancellor Friedrich Merz's governing coalition mulls far-reaching reforms to overcome Germany's deeper problems — such as high production costs, lagging private investment and increasingly costly health and pension systems — and boost long-term growth.

Economy Minister Katherina Reiche said the message from the latest growth forecast is clear: "The conflict in the Middle East is increasing the pressure on German politicians to tackle structural reforms forcefully."
