BOMBSHELL! FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE CAMERAS STOPPED ROLLING ON THE FRIENDS REUNION SPECIAL!
ack in April, the gang got together again to film HBO Max’s highly anticipated Friends reunion. And while the hour-long special — which featured unscripted conversations with Jennifer Aniston, 52, Courteney Cox, 56, Lisa Kudrow, 57, Matt LeBlanc, 53, Matthew Perry, 51, and David Schwimmer, 54, reminiscing about their days working on the hit sitcom — was full of laughs, a source tells OK! that viewers didn’t get to see everything! “There was some awkwardness,” spills the source. “Jen and Courteney are BFFs in real life, but they don’t hang out with David, Matt or Matthew, or even Lisa, very often, so it was a little weird being around them in this setting.” Still,

Courteney did her best to try and make the most of it. “She’s the social one of the group and always has been, so she seemed to be having the most fun,” shares the source. “Matthew was the most uncomfortable, and David stayed true to form and looked like he just wanted to do his job and get out of there.” The main cast members weren’t the only famous faces on the special. “The powers that be brought in a lot of guest stars, many of whom had no ties to the show at all, which obviously annoyed the original six,” spills the source. “But they had to bite their tongues and roll with it. They’re getting paid a load of money for this — reportedly up to $4 million each!” While Tom Selleck (who played Monica’s boyfriend) and Reese
Witherspoon (who appeared as Rachel’s sister) were welcomed with open arms, some were confused by Justin Bieber’s presence. “It was a little odd since he was a baby when Friends started,” says the source of the singer. “But he’s seen the reruns and is a fan.”
MOVING ON While the reunion was emotional for almost all of the actors — “Jen openly wept when she saw the old set where it began for her,” shares the source — after so much buildup, they “left feeling utterly relieved it was done,” says the source. Still, Courteney’s eager for a repeat. Adds the source: “She wants them to get together again soon, on a much more casual basis.” OK!

NASHVILLE STARS
SECRETS & SCANDALS
KRISTIN CAVALLARI It’s been a little over a year since
Kristin announced her split from Jay Cutler after almost seven years of marriage. And while a source says there were some “rough” moments, the Hills alum, 34, and the former NFL player, 38 — who share three kids — have found peace with their decision. “Kristin’s worked hard to get back on good terms,” says the source. “They’ve got each other’s backs.” The exes proved it earlier this year when they seemingly found themselves in a feud with Southern Charm’s Madison LeCroy. “Kristin thought her comments were a ploy for attention,” explains the source. “Mocking Kristin and Jay backfired, because they remained united.” 6 JUNE 7, 2021 OK!
JESSIE JAMES DECKER
On May 6, the country singer took to Instagram to let her fans in on her big secret: “I treated myself… to new boobies!” Jessie, 33, said in the post. “I’m super happy with them and [feel] like a brand-new woman.” After having three kids with hubby Eric Decker, 34, “Jessie felt like she needed some perking up,” says a source, noting that she kept her surgery under wraps until she got through the healing period. But now, “Jessie loves the way she looks,” adds the source. “She’s not against getting more cosmetic work done in the future, like fillers and lip injections, but everyone thinks she looks great for her age.”
JANA KRAMER In April, after countless
second chances, Jana’s six-year marriage to ex-athlete Mike Caussin, 34, came to an end. “She found out about Mike’s secret flings,” says an insider. “One affair was bad enough, but there were multiple instances, and she had no choice but to end the marriage. She cried a lot, but she knew she couldn’t live this way.” While the decision didn’t come easy, the actress and singer, 37, is getting used to being on her own. “Jana’s learned she’s a lot stronger than she realized,” shares the insider. “She’s already gotten asked out by several guys, but she’s nowhere near ready. She’s still healing.”

oing west: Katie
become ubiquitous
Emilio Vitolo Jr., an insider tells OK! that she’s seriously considering heading back to L.A. “Katie’s ready to move on,” says the insider, “in more ways than one.” The Dawson’s Creek alum, 42, whose PDApacked romance with the 33-year-old restauranteur fizzled out after eight months, “likes the idea of relocating to Hollywood, where it will be easier to date someone who she knows isn’t in it for the fame,” dishes the insider. Katie is also itching to be back among the movers and shakers there “so she can really get her directing career going,” the insider notes. Compared to when she fled L.A. for New York City after her high-profile divorce from Tom Cruise, 58, in 2012, the actress is “so much more confident now,” adds the insider. “She loves the city and plans to keep her residence there, but she wants to be where the action is and show people what she’s got.”
NEXT ACT Katie’s relationship with Emilio “was fun while it lasted,” says an insider. “Now, she’s ready to do what’s best for her.”
Mark Harmon may be worth a cool $100 million, but a source says the notoriously pennypinching NCIS star has gotten so cheap it’s downright criminal. Mark, 69, pulls in a reported $525,000 per episode of his hit procedural, “but you’d never know it from his lifestyle,” spills the source. “This is a guy who has holes in his jeans and doesn’t care if his T-shirts go crusty. He repairs his cars himself instead of taking them to a mechanic and fixes things around the house rather than calling a handyman.” The actor, who lives in Santa Monica with his wife of 34 years, Pam Dawber, 69, “insists on home-cooked meals and even goes grocery shopping with her because he likes to see how much money he saves using coupons,” the source adds. “It’s a little crazy, but if living on the cheap means having a peaceful life with Mark, Pam’s fine with it!” The couple that saves together, stays together?
BRAD
Crushing on Andra! Rising star Andra Day has already made quite the impression in Hollywood, including on one of its biggest heartthrobs — Brad Pitt! According to an insider, the 57-year-old actor is smitten with the United States vs. Billie Holliday beauty, 36, after meeting her at the Academy Awards in April, where she was up for best actress. “Andra definitely turned Brad’s head,” dishes the insider. “He can spot real talent from a mile away, and there’s no doubt he’d love to work with her on one of the projects he’s developing for his production company.” Brad, who’s gearing up for a court showdown with his ex Angelina Jolie, 45, over custody of their five younger children, “is putting out feelers hoping for a meet-up with Andra because he’d also like to get to know her on a personal level,” the insider continues. “Brad’s looking forward to dating again once this mess with Angelina is resolved, and Andra has all the qualities that grab his attention — and then some!”
“Brad loves how Andra carries herself in such a confident way,” spills an insider. OK! MAGAZINE 7

CHRISSY
CANCELED?
How much damage can you do in 140 characters? A lot! Chrissy Teigen is feeling the pain after being called out for her past cyberbullying by Courtney Stodden. (The TV personality, who identifies as non-binary, claimed Chrissy encouraged them to kill themselves in private Twitter messages on top of hurling insults at them on the social media platform in 2011.) “Chrissy genuinely regrets her hateful words,” says a source, noting that the former
Courtney (who uses they/ them pronouns) revealed Chrissy harassed them after they married Doug Hutchinson at 16 — when he was 50.
LEO’S
HIGH-TECH SLIM DOWN
No tortured artist here: Leonardo DiCaprio isn’t killing himself slimming down for his latest movie, Killers of the Flower Moon. Instead, a friend says the Oscar winner is relying on the special effects team to make him look lean and mean in the crime drama. Leo, 46, plays part of a rough-hewn cattleman clan in 1920s Oklahoma, but the star — who’s been sporting a paunch as of late — “wants the F/X wizards to do their digital magic. This is a grueling five-month shoot, so maintaining a strict diet and exercise regimen would be tough,” shares the pal, noting that the actor appeared noticeably slimmer in the film’s promo shot (inset). “At his age, Leo is done with going to extremes to suddenly drop 10 or 15 pounds for a movie when the technology exists to fix it. He still wants to be able to have his pasta dinners at the end of a long shooting day.” He’s earned it! 8 JUNE 7, 2021 OK!
RYAN
EYEING JULIANNE!
Ready for a redo: Ryan Seacrest is impressed with Julianne Hough’s spunky attitude following her November 2020 split from Brooks Laich — so much so that he’d love to hook up again, spills an insider. Ryan, who dated the Dancing With the Stars alum, 32, for three years before calling it quits in 2013, “always felt that Julianne was the one that got away. He relates to her more than any of his other exes,” dishes the insider. “He’s attracted to her work ethic, her perfectionism and her independent streak.” The American Idol host, 46, who split from his longtime girlfriend, Shayna Taylor, last June, has always stayed on good terms with Julianne, the insider adds. “They both agreed that they’d revisit things down the line if the circumstances were right, and Ryan’s convinced now is a good time to strike, even if it’s just for some no-strings fun,” adds the insider. “He’s down for that if Julianne is!” After all, it takes two to tango!

Now, she’s ready to move on to something new, listing the 3,852-square-foot property for $2.95 million, just about $800,000 more than what she paid
for it. While the five-bed, five-bath abode looks quite traditional from the street, the entertainer, 49, has some surprises indoors. Upon entering, guests walk into a glamorous doubleheight foyer with a sweeping black and white staircase. Dramatic chandeliers, dark wood floors, concrete fireplaces and bold furnishings are found throughout the
residence, where Carmen has also added some special personalized touches (think: a glass wine cellar stocked with stilettos and a carved wood swing in the living room). Unusual for SoCal, especially when it comes to celebs, there’s no pool on the premises — but a stone waterfall transforms the secluded terrace into a serene oasis.

both feel ready. “Dalton’s very mature for his age and has a strong work ethic,” explains the source. “Ariana thinks he’ll be a great dad. He’s a wonderful person and so genuine.” Friends believe Ariana will be a great mom too. “She loves kids and always makes time to chat with her young fans,” the source says of the Grammy winner. “She grew up in the spotlight and has experienced the downside of fame as well, but it’s only made
her more caring and empathetic. She has such a big heart.” While some fear that the pair is moving too fast — they began dating in early 2020 and got engaged this past December — friends have no doubt they’re in it for keeps. “Ariana’s been in enough relationships to know what’s real and what isn’t, and Dalton is the one,” notes the source. “They make a good couple because they put each other first.”

Kourtney Kardashian may have been over filming KUWTK — but that doesn’t mean she’s done with reality TV for good. According to a pal, the Poosh founder is exploring the idea of starring in a spin-off with her beau, Travis Barker. “They’re already filming scenes privately and brainstorming off-the-wall plotlines,” the friend says of Kourtney, 42, and the Blink-182 rocker, 45, who went IG official with their relationship in February. Not surprisingly, Kris Jenner “is also making this her pet project,”
adds the pal, who says the momager is eager to milk her daughter’s new romance all the way to the bank. Travis, who costarred in his own reality show, MTV’s Meet the Barkers, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, “has made the idea of working and living in front of the cameras fun again for Kourtney,” continues the friend. “And if they can figure out how to tie it in with her lifestyle brand and his fan following, the earning potential is huge.” Sounds like they’re reading for their close-ups!

COVER STORY

lex Rodriguez appeared to be in good spirits as he laughed and talked shop with fellow former baseball star David Ortiz over cold beers and expensive cigars in the backyard of his Miami mansion. “Always a great time with one of my favorite people,” Alex captioned videos he shared from the cheerful reunion on Instagram on May 16. According to an insider, while the star has been putting on a happy face in public, he’s still nursing a bruised ego over his split from Jennifer Lopez. The duo — who got engaged in March 2019 — called it quits in mid-April after four years together, and Jennifer, 51, is reportedly already moving on with
her old flame, Ben Affleck. (The two were spotted on vacation together in early May in Montana.) “It’s such a tough pill to swallow for Alex,” says the insider. “Seeing her gallivant around with Ben feels like a massive kick in the teeth.” As the shock of their separation begins to wear off, the insider says Alex, 45, is realizing his pictureperfect romance with the Hustlers actress wasn’t as happy as it once seemed. “The more Alex reflects on it, the more he realizes he was living a lie,” says the insider. The father of two (he shares Natasha, 16, and Ella, 13, with ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis) and Jennifer (mom to 13-year-old twins Emme and Max with ex Marc Anthony) postponed their wedding twice over Covid concerns before announcing they’d parted ways.
“Their time together wasn’t anything like the fairy tale they tried to project to the world,” adds the insider. “Alex was more in love with the idea of them than the actual relationship itself.”
BAD VIBES Jennifer may have sensed as much. While Alex appeared as the model boyfriend in public — snapping photos of Jen as she posed on countless red carpets, cheering on her performances and gushing about her in Instagram posts — behind closed doors, it was a different story. “When the cameras were on, Alex was this adoring partner who doted on Jen. But then he didn’t act like the same person

OUT OF HIS LEAGUE Alex became a red carpet fixture after hooking up with Jen (seen at the 2020 SAG Awards). “He was at the Met Gala, the Oscars, the Grammys,” says a source. “Sometimes Jen worried whether he loved the limelight more than her.”
HOW THEIR FAIRY-TALE
EARLY DAYS Alex confirmed he and Jennifer were dating in March 2017, telling The View, “She’s an amazing girl.”
BLENDED FAMILY Their children became super-tight during their four years together. “[It’s] the most important thing in my life,” Alex said of their blended brood.
once they were by themselves,” explains a second source, noting that Jen grew concerned her beau was more enamored with her superstar status — and how it raised his own profile. Following his unceremonious exit from baseball in 2016 after several drug-cheating scandals, Alex was anxious to repair his image. After hooking up with Jen in March 2017,
he also seemed to be on a mission to rebrand himself as a bonafide celebrity: That fall, he made several appearances on Shark Tank, and in 2018, joined ESPN as a Sunday Night Baseball analyst. “As soon as Alex confirmed he was dating Jen, it was as if he was everywhere,” notes the source. And while the singer was happy for her partner’s success, the source says she eventually started

to feel “used” by the former athlete. “The spark was fading, and it seemed like Alex was more into the showbiz side of things than their romantic connection,” adds the source. “It was like he was always more interested in how they were perceived as a couple instead of putting in the work.”
STEPPING OUT While Alex managed to fix his standing in the sports world, he couldn’t shake his reputation as a notorious womanizer. (The former slugger’s ex-wife Cynthia had previously accused him of cheating on her with Madonna. And in 2019, just after the couple’s engagement, Jose Canseco tweeted Alex was stepping out on Jen with his exwife.) This January, Alex came under fire when Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy, 30, revealed he’d snuck into her DMs. But the former athlete believes the incident was overblown. “Alex feels bad about communicating with her but hates how the whole situation snowballed,” spills the first insider. “He thinks the reports were exaggerated and is still reeling over how it played out in the headlines.” But for Jen, it spelled the end of their relationship. “There were times Alex was aloof and she’d catch him

checking out other girls. But this Madison situation really pushed her over the edge,” says the second source, adding that while Jen didn’t end things immediately, her trust was irrevocably broken. “Looking back, Jen felt like he’d been making a fool of her for four years. She had to leave.”
TIME TO HEAL As Jen’s romance with Alex went south, her former fiancé stepped in. According to reports, Ben, 48, reached out to her via email in February. The timing couldn’t have been better. “It was like Ben saved her from living her life just for the cameras,” shares the source. “With him, there’s no need to put on a show — and he doesn’t expect her to. She loves that he’s so low-key,” continues the source. “To those in her inner circle, it seems like the perfect revenge.” Meanwhile, Alex is staying busy and focusing on life at home with his daughters. “In retrospect, it’s easy to see that his romance with Jen was dysfunctional and not meant to be,” says the insider, noting that, deep down, Alex still wants the best for his ex. “It stings to see her move on so fast, but he’ll get over it eventually,” the insider adds, “but OK! now, it’s still very raw.”
SHADY BEHAVIOR Alex was accused of cheating on Jennifer on more than one occasion but his DMs with Southern Charm’s Madison LeCroy were the final straw.
Their Billion-Dollar Empire Goes Bust THE BREAKUP MARKS THE END OF THE LUCRATIVE J-ROD BRAND

SHARED ADDRESSES In addition to their Miami mansion (pictured), the exes still own a $1.4 million home in Encino, Calif.
t’s no secret that Alex and Jennifer’s joint business ventures stood to make lots of money based on the duo’s combined bank accounts and star power. At the time of their split, they’d already invested in real estate (they bought a $33 million mansion in Miami last summer, right), the self-care company Hims & Hers and the fitness app Fitplan. While Jen is certainly business savvy, a source says that it was Alex who was constantly pushing for more. “He seemed so preoccupied with lining up deals, some of which Jen had zero interest in,” says the source, pointing out their failed 2020 Mets bid. (Despite retaining JPMorgan Chase to help raise the necessary funds, the former couple — who put in $300 million of their own money — lost to billionaire hedge fund manager
Steve Cohen.) “Alex was constantly pushing this big picture sports business stuff on her, and that’s not her world.” Untangling their financial web won’t be an easy feat. According to reports, Jen has hired a team of lawyers to go over the details of their shared assets and business ventures. “It was in Jen and Alex’s best interest to keep things civil given their partnerships. But with Ben in the picture, this split’s turning nasty,” notes the source. “You can’t blame Jen for looking out for her best interests.” OK! MAGAZINE 35

STARS WHO WORKED... FOR OTHER STARS! BEFORE THEY MADE IT BIG, THESE CELEBS HAD STARTER JOBS — UNDER OTHER CELEBS!
KIM KARDASHIAN
The world’s most famous beauty with a booty, now a billion-dollar reality star and entrepreneur, got her start getting intimate with other celebrities’ belongings — as their wardrobe organizer. Kim appeared on Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie’s 2003 proto-reality show, The Simple Life, as Paris’ closet caddy. Kim recalls the assignment: “I had to organize and color-coordinate it and help her with my styling advice: What she needed to get rid of, what she needed to fill back in, do personal shopping. With her, it was mostly getting rid of stuff because she’s a compulsive shopper.” Also on Kim’s roster of high-profile closet clients: Serena Williams, Cindy Crawford, Rob Lowe

Funny is good training for funny. Or at least it seems to have been for the Girls star. Not wanting to just trade on her anchor father Brian Williams’ fame to launch her acting career, she took a closer-to-entry-level job in television: Tina Fey’s assistant the summer she was filming Baby Mama and 30 Rock. Since making magic with Lena Dunham and friends and starring in Get Out and Netflix’s The Perfection, Allison seems on track to become her own bossy pants.
BETHENNY FRANKEL
When Paris and Nicky Hilton were sullen teens, Bethenny was their chauffeur!
Before she became an iconic Housewife, feuding with Ramona Singer and inventing SkinnyGirl, Bethenny worked for real housewives — high-profile ones. The reality star toiled as a hostess in a Beverly Hills restaurant where she met now-RHOBH star Kyle Richards, who hired Bethenny to drive her nieces — Paris and Nicky Hilton (seeing a theme with stars’ first jobs?!) — to school. Bethenny then became the Hiltons’ nanny and chef.

The actress and writer interned on Late Night With Conan O’Brien while she was in college. When she went back to visit in 2012, this time as a guest, Mindy told the host: “I couldn’t believe how starstruck I was working [here]. I was the worst intern that’s ever worked on the program. I wanted to work there not to learn how to photocopy things but to, like, watch you. So I wouldn’t do the things I was hired to do. I would just kind of follow you around.” Call it method acting.

Oh, and if we’re throwing it way, way back, Kanye also reportedly worked in retail, at Gap, which is fitting considering he just launched a 10-year partnership with the brand.
JENNIFER GARNER
Before she was kicking ass on Alias or running her baby food line, Once Upon A Farm, Jennifer Garner took home cash the old-fashioned way: babysitting. The parent she reported to was a little more high profile than the average, though: Stephen Colbert, who met Jen when she guest-starred on an episode of ABC’s Spin City in 1996. The actress looked after the late-night host and his wife Evelyn’s daughter, Madeleine, while she auditioned for roles and remembers loving their “gorgeous little girl. She was such a peanut and really smart.” Now Jen’s the one allocating the childcare budget — for her own three kids with ex Ben Affleck. 38 JUNE 7, 2021 OK!

BACK ON TRACK AFTER A LONG HIATUS, THE INDIE ROCKER TELLS ALL ABOUT HER NEW ALBUM, SOBERISH
iz Phair shook things up with Exile in Guyville, her brash, profane and wildly influential 1993 debut album that established her as the scrappy new queen of indie rock. But the cloistered, male-dominated industry wasn’t always comfortable with Liz’s in-your-face persona, leading to business clashes with record execs that sidelined her career. Now, the singer, 54, is back with her first original album in 11 years, Soberish, in which she explores her musical roots and reflects on her personal journey. “I wanted to evoke the past but also the future, and I wanted to create a totally fresh product that was stretching me toward a new sound,” she says. “It was a hard needle to thread.” Liz, who’s mom to son Nick, 24, with ex-hubby Jim Staskauskas, dishes about her new

music and the hardwon wisdom that comes with age.
It’s been 11 years since your last record. Why the long absence?
I switched to scoring television when my son was in school so that I would be at home and not out touring. Then he went off to college and I started to get my career going again. It was really just life timing. But I was also inspired by how many female artists had sprung up. If you think of Exile in Guyville, it felt like Girlville happened in that interim. So I felt like I was moving back into a better environment.
connected to my humanness and my sort of oceanic oneness with the world. So for me, keeping a balance is helpful.
The album has songs about romances gone bad. Does that reflect where you are now?
Kind of. I’m a complicated person and I don’t couple up easily. So there are a lot of starts and stops in my relationships, and sometimes I’m not the victim but the one with the shiv. I think I’m at that stage where you kind of have a halfway decent life and it takes a lot for you to want to change that. I wish I were younger and knew less. It would make it easier to fall in love more.
Can you explain the title, Soberish? I felt very “soberish” because it was a difficult year with so many things going wrong and layer after layer of unsafe, unpredictable conditions. I also felt the name could be interpreted to mean things that we do to avoid direct reality — not just substance use, but all the different ways we can exist in denial and in escapism. If you’re using any trick or habit to keep from having to confront truth and reality head-on, you’re probably “soberish,” you know?
Did you use any of those tricks? I live my life mostly sober. And then when I’m not sober, I don’t feel ashamed or bad because I keep the baseline OK. When I do go into those states, I feel
You’re going to be touring with Alanis Morissette. Are you looking forward to being on the road? I actually like touring. I love traveling, and when I have a great band, I love performing.
So, would you say the pioneering, boundary-pushing Liz Phair is back? I think the professional mommy has left the building. Creativity is a fluid, ever-changing medium. It’s like mercury: If you try to box it in one place, it’s going to slip out. I feel like myself again — and that sense of pushing boundaries, of having too much imagination and of being the emotional cartographer? That person’s back. OK!

HOROSCOPE
Cancer June 22—July 22 When Mars is in Cancer, the red-hot planet raises your temperature (and temper), and those closest to you may find it hard to take the heat. Don’t be surprised if they start throwing some shade your way.
Leo July 23—Aug. 22 Leo enjoys the reflected glory of a sextile with Gemini — but wants to grab all the glory. So go for it. The biggest, baddest Leo of all (Napoleon) said, “Glory may be fleeting, but obscurity lasts forever.”
Virgo Aug. 23—Sept. 22 Earth signs are known astrology scoffers. You’re too practical to put your trust in the heavens. In a square with ruler Mercury in Gemini, you just might want to have something to blame other than yourself!
Libra Sept. 23—Oct. 23 AMY SCHUMER JUNE 1
Gemini May 21—June 21 Put on your dancin’ shoes! Why not, with so much in your sign to strut about? And it’s totally cool that May 25 is National Tap Dance Day, so designated by Congress in honor of Gemini Bill “Bojangles” Robinson.
A trine with Venus in Gemini will test your sexual resolve. You can’t resist a come-on, but don’t forget that another trine with Saturn in Aquarius is there for two more years to balance desire with restraint.
Scorpio Oct. 24—Nov. 21 Scorpio can usually trust Capricorn, who is always sextile to you. But your ruler, Pluto, is retrograde in that sign. It’ll be tough to separate those who have your back from those who want to put a knife in it!
Sagittarius Nov. 22—Dec. 21 The lunar eclipse in Sag on the 26th lures you to the great unknown.
If you can’t leave town, settle down on the sofa with the works of other entertaining Sags: Jane Austen, Steven Spielberg or Walt Disney.
Capricorn Dec. 22—Jan. 19 Some say (probably Aries) that Capricorn’s mind can only be changed at the point of a gun (or a Pluto retrograde). Either way, you’re in for some soul-searching, Cappy. Time to let go of what no longer serves.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18 Ruler Uranus has been square to you in Taurus for three years and won’t change until 2026. The planet is erratic, exactly like you can be when you feel left out. Cling tight to your trine with the Sun in Gemini.
Pisces Feb. 19—March 20 Your summer road trip could hit a roadblock via a square with the Sun and Venus in Gemini. Travel companion(s) may prove to be pesky. Remember, it’s not where you go in life, but who you travel with.
Aries (March 21-April 19) You’re first in the Zodiac, first to try, and often first to fail. You know that only those who risk going too far can find out how far they can go. But too few signs are willing to take the road less traveled with you.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Earth signs want things to stay the same. So you’ll have a tough time in Pluto retrograde. It’s all about self-transformation, and you (and Virgo and Capricorn) think you’re just fine as you are, thank you.

ach day, our liver is working hard to remove waste products and toxins from processed foods, unclean air, water and even our own body.

We quickly may notice the results in our energy levels, in our lack of youthful appearance – and surprisingly, on our waistlines.
