‘Manifest’ Saved With 20-Episode Fourth & Final Season On Netflix ‘Manifest’ will live on. After weeks of negotiations, Netflix has closed a deal for a super-sized fourth and final season of the missing plane drama, which will be available exclusively on the streamer worldwide. In a nod to Manifest‘s fans, whose passionate support helped resurrect the show following its cancellation by NBC, the announcement of the Season 4 pickup by Netflix was made on so-called “828 Day” (8/28) — when the series about the mystery of Flight 828 is celebrated annually — at 8:28 AM PT.

The Demise of the Girlboss Coined by entrepreneur and Nasty Gal founder Sophia Amoruso in 2014, the term “girlboss” became synonymous with “hustle culture,” with a feminism-lite twist: the optimistic, almost religious desire to get ahead at work and in life. #Girlboss is the millennial-pink version of Helen Gurley Brown’s Having It All, the living embodiment of Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg’s order to lean in. The project was, on its face, necessary: The game is rigged against women who are, by all measures, as capable as men. But in mere months, the #Girlboss went from being an empowering idea to shorthand for a type of fake-woke feminism. (Tellingly, Nasty Gal also faced allegations of workplace discrimination.)

Lil Nas X Trolled Drake With New Version of Drake’s Album Cover No one trolls like Lil Nas X trolls. The musician is an internet exper — and his latest target? Drake, whose new album cover for Certified Lover Boy is practically designed for meme-making. Drake's album, which drops on September 3, features a cover of 12 pregnant emojis in a variety of different skin tones and hair colors; the cover was designed by famous artist Damien Hirst. The cover is certainly unique, and Lil Nas X couldn't resist making his own version to promote his forthcoming album, MONTERO, which debuts a few weeks after Drake's on September 17. In Lil Nas's version, which he shared to Instagram, the emojis are pregnant men, including a few bald men, a redhead, and a couple with beards. Teen Vogue |
