I made a comment once before about feeling like Helen Hunt was in everything for a stretch there after she won her Oscar. Well, she certainly pulled one over on me, because now I?m the idiot who had no idea she?s been on Hacks since season three! Hacks has been on my list of shows to start for a while, but somehow keeps getting bumped for other things. I will be rectifying that now, I swear! So Helen appears on the June cover of Flow Space to promote the fourth season, and the interview is full of intelligence and charm. And also a bit of pain; it seems Helen is unaware that the comfortable shoes on the red carpet revolution is already underfoot! The full article is worth a read, but I?ve excerpted a few highlights, including the opening where she talks about having to break out of her heels at a 2024 Oscars party:
She had to take her heels off at the 2024 VF Oscars party: ?I was like, ?This had to be done. I have to be done now?I can?t walk!,?? she recalls. ?I cannot walk. I cannot walk to get my drink at the bar or my In-N-Out Burger, which they serve. There has to be a new ethos about women and shoes. I want them to invent a new way to do it without hurting your feet!?
Her career exploding in the 90s led her to meditation: ?I was just, like, pushing myself with no thought of, ?Well, maybe it?s too much,?? she recalls. ?My body went, ?It?s too much.?? That?s when a friend first suggested she try meditation. ?I went, ?Oh, right.? I took a class when I was 18 and thought it would change my life and then blew it off,? she says. ?But pain is a really good motivator.? She has now maintained a daily, 20-minute practice for more than three decades. ?Just showing up and doing it, over time, I think it matters,? she says. ?For me, it?s not even like I want to do it to feel good. Now I have to do it to not feel bad!?
On dealing with body shaming tabloids when she was younger: ?It felt impossible not to internalize the way you?re supposed to look,? Hunt reveals. ?And [there was] a certain amount of misery and shame around not looking exactly that way.? At some point, however, ?I realized, ?This could quietly ruin your whole life,?? Hunt says, adding that she rarely talks about this aspect of her Hollywood experience. ?I made a decision: I?m not playing. Not gonna [let it] take up a lot of space in my mind.? Notes her longtime friend and Mad About You co-star Paul Reiser, ?She has always been terrifically centered and forthright about setting up boundaries.?
How she got into surfing: ?I saw a woman in Hawaii who, like, jumped out of the water, picked up her baby, pulled her bathing suit down, nursed, gave her baby back to, presumably, the baby?s dad, and went back to the water,? Hunt recalls. ?I was like, I want to be her.?
She?s a college student! She also still has aspirations of being a college graduate, a rite of passage she missed out on to pursue her career. ?It was always an unchecked box,? she says, explaining her decision to sign up for college-level English courses. ?I?m checking it very slowly.? Which is a pace that helps keep her moving steadily forward?the direction she prefers to focus on.

I love that Helen?s taking college classes! I have a friend doing a similarly protracted march towards his graduate degree, a method I call the ?low and slow? approach to higher education. In addition to checking off that graduation box, Helen says she views the courses as ?an antidote to Instagram strolling.? (Hey kids, reading works for that, too!) I?m not surprised to hear Helen meditates daily, because she really does sound so clear and centered. Part of that is just living and growing and aging, I know. Helen?s now an empty-nester (her daughter Makena is 22 and in a band), and enjoying a once-and-again relationship with Jeffrey Nordling, after they first dated in 1988. (Jeffrey played Laura Dern?s husband in Big Little Lies, and longtime fans will know him from Once and Again, hence the earlier wordplay.) It seems like she?s in a really good head and heart space ? she just needs to liberate her feet! My word of advice: don?t settle for merely ?bearable? like her fellow Helen, Ms. Mirren. Aim higher! By lowering the heel.
PS ? I also want to be that surfing, nursing Hawaiian mama.

Olivia Rodrigo is still going strong on her Guts World Tour, and her latest stop saw her headline the Governors Ball Music Festival in NYC on Saturday. Thankfully, there have been no reports of Olivia falling through a hole in the stage. Instead it was the audience who was treated to an unexpected moment, when she brought out 80s punk rocker and former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne to the stage for the pair to perform his classic hit, ?Burning Down the House.? Surprise! I mean, he?s no Pesto. But I guess a guest appearance by David Byrne is pretty cool, lol. (To be clear: yes, I?m joking!) Clad in complementary red outfits, both artists looked like they were having a whole lotta fun singing and doing their choreography in sync. And the audience sure seemed into it too:
Pop star Olivia Rodrigo, 22, has excellent taste in music.
The Bad Idea singer, a former Disney Channel star and current Taylor Swift bestie, recently bridged the generational gap between modern pop and ?90s legends by bringing Talking Heads frontman David Byrne on stage. The duo not only danced in sync?they twinned in matching red outfits, sending the audience into what fans called a ?fever dream.? Fans couldn?t get enough of the ?unexpected duo,? with Byrne fans giving respect to the young Driver?s License signer for sharing the stage with the iconic rocker.
Rodrigo was headlining Saturday?s Governors Ball Music Festival when she surprised the crowd by bringing Byrne onstage. Much to the audience?s delight, the 73-year-old music legend arrived wearing bright red overalls that matched Rodrigo?s all-red bra and shorts set. The energetic pair danced (and ran) in unison while belting out Burning Down the House.
Fans loved seeing two generations of music stars unite onstage. In a video shared on social media, one fan wrote, ?I love how she gives props to all my music idols!! David Byrne is the coolest,? while another added, ?I love it,? in reaction to the unexpected collaboration.
Burning Down the House was originally released in 1983 and peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Olivia Rodrigo was born in 2003.

Oh, bless Parade. This excerpt was actually the entire article, but they packed a lot into those 221 words! Starting with the last line: the no-fuss reporting of ?Burning Down the House? being released 20 years before Olivia?s birth was hilarious. Next, I would not call David and Olivia?s outfits ?twinning,? and even ?matched? is a little strong. They were the same color, that?s the end of the similarities! David sported red overalls with a white tee underneath, looking like Super Mario?s Scottish cousin. Olivia, meanwhile, was wearing hot pants (or briefs, really) and a bra top. If David had actually twinned with her tour costume, the headlines coming out of the concert would?ve taken on a whole new tone, is all I?m saying! But the best, most quietly juicy nugget, is the line at the top describing Olivia as a ?current Taylor Swift bestie.? Never has the word ?current? carried so much weight!
Anyway, this was a charming move on Olivia?s part, to extend the invitation to David. Reminded me of when she joined Billy Joel onstage at his Madison Square Garden concert in 2022 to sing ?Uptown Girl.? Not all the youngin?s are as well versed in music history, so it?s nice that she welcomes it into her performances so graciously. And I can?t help it, David Byrne working so earnestly to hit all the dance steps was just plain adorkable. You can see it written all over his face!
