And to me, that's a much more powerful love - a love that's rooted in absolute vulnerability and honesty." - Kerry WashingtonGrowing up in a family culture where "hide the truth to look good" was the unspoken rule, Kerry Washington always sensed something was missing despite having loving, supportive parents. For decades, she pursued various healing practices—therapy, yoga, introspection—trying desperately to feel "enough." Then came the life-altering revelation: after forty years, her parents finally shared a profound family truth they'd been concealing her entire life. Rather than shattering their relationship, this moment of raw vulnerability transformed it, allowing Kerry to offer something extraordinary in return: unconditional love without pretense or filters.The award-winning actress candidly shares how this family revelation became an unexpected gift, providing her permission to finally "relax into who I am." Through her powerful journey of self-acceptance, Kerry reveals the emotional rollercoaster of processing such life-changing information—from gratitude and bliss to anger and fear. Her story powerfully illustrates how authentic connection can only truly exist when we embrace vulnerability, demonstrating that real healing begins when we stop hiding behind comfortable lies and start embracing uncomfortable truths.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

This week on The Treatment, Elvis speaks with Emmy winning actress Kerry Washington about her new action thriller Shadow Force. Then, Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck — the directing team behind Freaky Tales — stop by to talk about making this new film that’s a return to Oakland in 1987. And on The Treat, Oscar-nominated director James Mangold talks about a film that shows the darker side of the big apple.
This week, Tommy is joined by Academy Award-winning actress Da’Vine Joy Randolph, who captured audiences with her breakout role opposite Eddie Murphy in DOLEMITE IS MY NAME. Randolph also starred in the acclaimed film THE HOLDOVERS earning numerous prestigious accolades including that Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and so many more. You also may know and love Da’Vine from her fan-favorite role in ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING. Now she’s kicking some butt in the action thriller SHADOW FORCE (also starring Kerry Washington and Omar Sy) in theaters May 9th. Today, Da'Vine opens up about how winning her Academy Award has become a way for her to pay it forward, the pressure that comes after winning an Oscar, how she learned to find inspiration and motivation from within, why she believes that anxiety can sometimes be a gift if you listen to it, what made her want to join her first action movie, the one thing she believes is crucial to making an action movie believable, her #1 tip to kicking some butt, why Bradley Cooper is still at the top of her list to work with, the movie she wants to remake with him, how Hollywood constantly challenges her worth, what keeps her focused and able to persevere, filming the new season of ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING, if she finally has more scenes with Meryl Streep, if her and Selena Gomez bust out a tune on set, why empathy allows us to feel more connected to one another, and so much more.

Welcome back to another episode of The Haute Guide! In this episode, I'm diving deep into the 2025 Met Gala, unpacking this year's compelling theme: "Superfine", inspired by Monica Miller's exploration of Black dandyism. Join me as I candidly break down the hits, misses, and everything in between on fashion's biggest night. Here's what's inside: My honest thoughts on who beautifully embodied the "Superfine" theme—including Janelle Monae's stunning "time traveler" concept, Tracee Ellis Ross's bold historical homage, and André 3000's brilliant nod to traveling musicians. The styling missteps that left me scratching my head: Zendaya's unexpected duplicate look and Megan Thee Stallion's disappointing Michael Kors dress. A personal glimpse into my own "Superfine" look for a Met Gala viewing party at the Ritz Carlton, complete with a custom floor-length durag, embracing Black dandyism with my unique twist. Reflections on how the fashion industry at large missed a prime opportunity to truly honor and elevate Black culture, creativity, and historical significance. Plus, I'm sharing a heartfelt update about my recent health journey, why I've been away from fashion events, and how this Met Gala reignited my passion and purpose. Key Moments: Best Dressed Spotlight: Janelle Monae, Tracee Ellis Ross, Tessa Thompson, Ava DuVernay, Kerry Washington. Critical Takeaways: Why Law Roach dropped the ball with Zendaya, and how Megan Thee Stallion and Coco Jones missed opportunities to solidify their personal brands. Personal Connection: The deeper meaning behind my own dandy-inspired look and how it marked my return to the fashion scene.

Today I'm joined by the dynamic duo behind The Brownstone Boys—Barry Bordelon and Jordan Slocum. Known for their thoughtful restorations and their deep respect for architectural heritage, Barry and Jordan have built a design practice rooted in restoration, storytelling, and heart.What began with the renovation of their own Brooklyn brownstone sparked a passion for salvaging and preserving historic elements—everything from forgotten chandeliers to painted-over hardware. Since then, they've become celebrated voices in the world of preservation and design, known for breathing new life into old spaces while honoring the soul of what came before.Along the way, they've built an impressive roster of clients that includes names like Kerry Washington, Athena Calderone, and Peloton's Anna Greenberg, and they've cultivated a devoted community through their blog, Instagram, and their book, For the Love of Renovating.We explore their emotional connection to the pieces they collect, the thrill of discovery, and the belief that sometimes the most meaningful design begins with what's already there—hidden behind the walls, in the attic, and beneath the floorboards.So please enjoy, this is Barry & Jordan, The Brownstone Boys, for Collectors Gene Radio.The Brownstone Boys - https://thebrownstoneboys.com/Cameron Steiner - https://www.instagram.com/cameronrosssteinerCollectors Gene - https://www.collectorsgene.com

At the height of World War II, transporting the mail to GIs took a back seat to moving supplies to the front. Soon, millions of letters and packages were piling up with no one to sort them. Commanders reluctantly gave the job to a battalion of Black female soldiers, convinced the task would be too much for them. Despite facing racism and sexism - and grueling working conditions - the women of the Six Triple Eight accomplished their mission, re-establishing an important connection between the homefront and the battlefront. With an ensemble cast featuring Kerry Washington, Susan Sarandon, Sam Waterston, and Oprah Winfrey, The Six Triple Eight is inspired by the real story of the first and only Women's Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in the Second World War. Given an extraordinary task and united in their determination, these unsung heroes delivered hope and shattered barriers, raising morale on both sides of the Atlantic. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews writer and director Tyler Perry. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched The Six Triple Eight yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on. Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts.
