Your kids will roast you (and honestly, they're not wrong)

Kylie Jenner just got absolutely demolished by her 7-year-old daughter Stormi, and honestly? It's the most relatable celebrity mom content I've seen in ages.
In a viral TikTok, Stormi discovered her mom's 'King Kylie' era—you know, the mid-2010s when Jenner was cycling through wigs like they were seasonal coffee flavors. The kid took one look at a photo of her mom rocking a teal wig with a red outfit and delivered the kind of brutal honesty that only children possess: 'A blue wig with a red outfit? It's not a good combo.'
Even Jenner had to agree. 'I know. It's not good.'
And there it is, folks—the moment every parent dreads and secretly admires. The day your child looks at your past self and says, 'Mom, what were you thinking?'
As a parent of two teens, let me tell you: this is just the beginning for Jenner. My 13-year-old daughter had the absolute audacity to critique four-year-old photos of my former side part—and that's not even totally out of style yet. There's NO WAY I'm showing her evidence from the early 2000s when I thought baby bangs, Juicy Couture knockoffs, and low-rise jeans were the height of sophistication. I'd never hear the end of it.
The irony? This same child regularly raids my closet and dips into my fancy beauty products. She'll literally steal my clothes and then have the nerve to tell me my hair looks 'giving millennial.' Girl, you'd be lucky to be as cool as I am—past fashion choices and all.

Here's the thing about Gen Alpha: they're growing up with an aesthetic awareness that's frankly intimidating. They've been surrounded by curated Instagram feeds, TikTok beauty tutorials, and Pinterest boards since birth. They know what 'slaps' and what's 'cheugy' before they can properly tie their shoes.
Unlike us, who had to figure out what looked good through trial and error (and a lot of regrettable yearbook photos), they're developing their sense of style in real-time with unlimited access to inspiration. No wonder they can spot a questionable outfit choice from 2016 and immediately know it's not it.
It doesn't matter how cool you think you are—your kids will find something to roast you about. Celebrities with professional stylists? Not safe. Instagram influencers with perfectly curated feeds? Definitely not safe. Regular moms just trying to look put-together while getting everyone out the door? We never stood a chance.
The beautiful thing about Stormi's reaction is how it captures something every parent experiences: the moment your child sees you as a real person who made real (questionable) choices. It's humbling and hilarious and oddly touching all at once.
But here's what I love about these moments: they're actually signs of healthy development. When our kids feel comfortable enough to tease us about our fashion choices, it means they see us as human. They're not putting us on pedestals—they're relating to us as real people who sometimes make mistakes (sartorial and otherwise).
Plus, let's be honest—they're usually right. That teal wig with the red outfit? Probably not Jenner's finest moment. My side part? It was definitely time for a change. Sometimes it takes a kid's unfiltered honesty to help us see what everyone else was too polite to mention.

So to all the parents out there dreading the day your child discovers your old Facebook photos: embrace it. Laugh with them. Admit that yes, you thought that outfit was amazing at the time, and no, you're not sure what you were thinking either.
Because at the end of the day, these moments of gentle mockery are actually moments of connection. Your kid is saying, 'I see you, I know you, and I love you enough to tell you the truth—even when that truth is that your 2016 fashion choices were questionable.'
And honestly? That's pretty beautiful, even if it stings a little.
Just maybe hide those early 2000s photos for a few more years. There's only so much roasting a parent can take in one lifetime.

Crumbl announces its newest celebrity collaboration cookie

Crumbl Cookies is a business that grew so fast, it leaves people wondering what it did to achieve such explosive success. Originally founded in 2017 in Utah by Sawyer Hemsley and Jason McGowan with the intention of creating the world's best chocolate chip cookie, today Crumbl sells one million desserts a day and has 1,071 locations nationwide. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Crumbl attributes a lot of its success to both a robust social media presence and its formula of limited weekly drops of new flavors, which one founder says is an idea they got from another industry. Related: Costco adds new food item members already love "In the fashion industry, they really came up with the idea of these drops," McGowan said in a CNBC interview, "and it's an idea we use in our business. It creates that hype, excitement. And it also creates scarcity, because you can only have that cookie for that week." Crumbl also started doing celebrity and film collaborations in December 2023, starting with a partnership to commemorate the launch of the "Willy Wonka" film with its Wonka's Wildly Wonderful Red Velvety Cookie. It teamed up with singer Olivia Rodrigo next to promote her album "Guts." This was excellent timing for the brand, as Rodrigo's popularity was at an all-time high. Now Crumbl has another celebrity collaboration on the way, and it's safe to say fans of the brand are probably going to love it. On June 19, Crumbl shared via its Instagram account that it would drop a new cookie next week in partnership with Benson Boone, the pop-rock sensation and "Beautiful Things" singer who just released the new album "American Heart." The company describes its Moonbeam Ice Cream Cookie, which will be on sale at Crumbl stores only from June 23-28, as "a mystical, magical chilled chocolate cookie packed with cookies and cream pieces, crowned with vibrant moonbeam ice cream-inspired lemon, berry, and marshmallow toppings, finished with a sweet white drizzle and a final sprinkle of cookies and cream." Comments on the complicated-sounding new treat were mixed, with some fans thrilled and eager to try it, and others not so much. "I'm gonna backflip in the store when I get my paws on this," Instagram user eggtyler said. "I'M DEFINITELY GETTING THIS! Love Benson Boone! Seeing him in September!" Instagram user tfnice18 said. However, some Crumbl employees seemed less than enthused about the new collaboration. Related: General Mills quietly discontinues three cereals fans loved "Great. No one asked for another celebrity partnership, especially not the employees," said Instagram user sammy_slocum. Several commenters also asked for Crumbl's take on another viral food sensation that's been sweeping TikTok lately. "Give us a release date for the Dubai chocolate cheesecake and the Dubai chocolate brownie," Instagram user itstheavarose said. While Crumbl's viral popularity has softened a bit since it first exploded a few years back, the brand still has plenty of pull. The privately owned company has more than 10 million followers on TikTok alone, and fans still regularly flock to its stores to try out new flavors or search online for the weekly menu. In a Reddit thread hosted by a franchise owner who offered to answer questions about what it's like to run a Crumbl, Reddit user FromCustomertoFP revealed how much it cost to invest. "It depends on many factors, but it is between $500K to $1M," the user wrote. "Equipment is the biggest chunk of the initial investment. Crumbl is not a cheap franchise to get into." While the franchise owner did not answer when asked if the investment was profitable, they did share some thoughts on Crumbl's growth. "Let's say a Crumbl franchise is a good investment if 1. You can afford it, and 2. You put it in a good location. The last point sounds easy, but it's not. In my opinion Crumbl expanded too much and in some areas allowed stores to be too close, and that is hurting some owners. I think Crumbl stores should be no less than 45 mins. apart from each other," they wrote.

Lizzo Reacts to Performance of ‘About Damn Time' at President Trump's Military Parade

When Lizzo sang, 'Turn up the music, let's celebrate,' Donald Trump's widely protested military birthday parade was not what she had in mind. After video of a performer singing Lizzo's Billboard Hot 100-topping hit 'About Damn Time' at the event in Washington, D.C., on Saturday (June 14) surfaced online, the hitmaker made her feelings quite clear in a TikTok posted over the weekend. Stitching the clip with a few seconds of footage of the parade singer's breathless live rendition of the self-love anthem — performed in front of a gathering on the National Mall — Lizzo then cuts to a shot of herself staring pointedly at the camera, looking perplexed and disgusted. More from Billboard Tyler, the Creator, Finneas, Kehlani & More React to Los Angeles Protests Against ICE Addison Rae Announces Dates For Debut 2025 Headlining World Tour How Brandon Lake Is Leading A Whole New Flock To 'What's Real And What's True' In Christian Music 'cease & desist,' she wrote in the caption. It's unclear which performer is singing 'About Damn Time' in the video Lizzo shared, but according to USA Today, the parade stage's lineup included DJ Nyla Symone, Lee Greenwood, Scotty Hasting, Noah Hicks and Warren Zeiders. The choice to cover the Grammy-winning hit at Trump's procession was certainly an interesting one, though, as Lizzo — who endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 election — has made her disapproval of the twice-impeached POTUS very clear over the years. She's not the only one. While Trump was celebrating the U.S. Army's 250th birthday — as well as his own 79th birthday, which was also Saturday — through a grand show of military might in D.C., a slew of 'No Kings' gatherings broke out across the country in protest of his administration. Those overlapped with the ongoing protests in Los Angeles against the country's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, which recently launched raids into multiple workplaces across the city in the name of alleged immigration violations. Lizzo also posted several times about the ICE raids on Bluesky a few days prior to her TikTok about the military parade. 'The irony of an ice agent forcing a Mexican person off of their ancestral land when that agent's ancestors are European immigrants is just…,' she wrote in one post, adding in another: 'And still … there are people who voted for this who are going to sleep with a smile on their faces pleased as pie … It's a wild world y'all.'
