As of Monday, June 2, the fast food chain has introduced Chicken Wraps to its nationwide menu. According to a press release, the wraps offer 'the craveable flavor of Popeyes, now wrapped and ready to go wherever you do.'
Each wrap includes Popeyes' hand-breaded chicken tenders, crunchy lettuce, shredded cheese, and pickles, all tucked inside a tortilla that's infused with flavors reminiscent of the brand's iconic biscuits.

'With our new Chicken Wraps, we've taken our iconic chicken tenders and wrapped them in something completely new, bringing all that craveable crunch in a fresh, portable way,' said Chef Amy Alarcon, VP of Culinary Innovation at Popeyes.
She went on to explain: 'We wanted to create a Chicken Wrap that was undeniably Popeyes. Infusing the flavors from our famous biscuit into our wraps was the perfect way to ensure our signature flavors shined through.'

Date night! Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban step out at FIFA Club World Cup in Nashville
It was a sporting life for Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban on Friday, as they stepped out for a spot of soccer in Nashville. The A-list couple were spotted attending the World Club Cup group D match between US side Los Angeles FC and Tunisian side Esperance Sportive de Tunis at the Geodis Park Stadium. Despite being cheered on by Nicole, 58, and Keith, 57, the local side found themselves out of the competition after a close 1-0 defeat. Displaying her usual sartorial splendour, Nicole looked stunning in an eye-catching high boatneck ivory dress. The sleeveless garment also featured silver floral embellishments and showed off the actor's trim and toned arms.

It was a sporting life for Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban on Friday, as they stepped out for a spot of soccer in Nashville to watch the World Club Cup group D match between US side Los Angeles FC and Tunisian side Esperance Sportive de Tunis Nicole left her auburn locks to cascade freely down her back for the occasion, while dialling back on the accessories. She finished her date night look with a light rose shade on her lip and a subtle blush to accentuate her enviable cheekbones. Husband Keith, meanwhile went for a more casual look in a beige and white chequered shirt that he wore with the sleeves rolled up. Ever the rocker, Keith also donned a pair of light blue jeans that featured an array of distressed embellishments and rips. He finished his stadium look with a pair of sleek, silver-framed sunglasses. The couple looked chuffed to be in each other's company for the top-tier sporting event. Nicole was seen beaming as she happily chatted to Keith, while he watched the action on the pitch. Keith did not seem to mind, with the Somebody Like You hitmaker grinning back at his A-list wife as he leaned back coolly on a stadium railing. The sleeveless garment also featured silver floral embellishments and showed off the actor's trim and toned arms The outing comes after Nicole recently made some rare comments about her daughters Sunday Rose, 16, and Faith Margaret, 14. Speaking with Allure in May, Nicole opened up about how parenting has helped her better understand herself. 'I'm very close to both my girls. I sit on their beds and discuss the most intimate things; I get to be their guide,' she told the publication. The Nine Perfect Strangers star also said she and her daughters respect each other's boundaries. 'If they want to tell me to be quiet, they can. I'm able to apologise to them. I'm able to stand up to them. 'I very much like the relationship we have. It's nice to be able to say that,' she said. The Perfect Couple star is known for taking risks with the roles she chooses. She's played everything from a neurosurgeon (Days of Thunder) to a wellness guru (Nine Perfect Strangers) to a victim of domestic abuse (Big Little Lies). But there's one role she says she'll never take on: starring opposite her husband in a movie or television show. 'We're together in life, so we don't need to do our show together,' she told People at the season two premiere of Hulu's Nine Perfect Strangers. 'Our life is a show,' she added. She was also asked if she'd be into a role where all the characters she's played before existed in one project. 'That's hilarious. I'd be up for it,' she said. 'As you know, I'm up for most things. I like to be able to say I'm game. So I'm always ready to try things. 'I have a huge passion for what I do. I love doing what I do, and I've been incredibly fortunate in my journey, and I'm just always a bit excited. While promoting her latest film, called Holland, at SXSW Film & TV Festival in March, Nicole said she's ready to take a step back from work. 'I was much more out there last year; this year I have Holland, I have Nine Perfect Strangers, and then I'm off for the rest of year. So, oh well!' she told The Hollywood Reporter.

'Chill' sweeps housing market as troubling construction milestone flashes latest crash warning
A key indicator of the health of the housing market has plummeted to its lowest level in five years. Construction of single-family homes — like stand-alone houses — rose just 0.4 percent in May. Apartment and condo building starts dropped a staggering 30.4 percent. Overall, new-home building fell 4.6 percent from April to May, hitting the slowest pace since May 2020, during the height of the pandemic. The sharp slowdown comes as buyers pull back — worried about a possible recession or holding out in hopes that prices will drop. 'Builders are already adjusting their outlooks, and slowing the development pipeline which could mean that new homes are harder to come by in the next year,' economist Danielle Hale told Building permits, a sign of future construction, also fell 2 percent to 1.26 million from April to May, according to the government. New-home construction did grow in the West by 15.1 percent, but fell across the rest of the US. The biggest dip in new-home construction was in the Northeast, which saw a 40 percent drop. That's an alarming dip. 'Cracks are appearing in the housing market as negative homebuilder sentiment, elevated mortgage rates, and higher building costs due to tariffs weigh on activity,' said Matthew Martin, senior US economist at Oxford Economics. 'Building permits point to a slower pace of construction, while May retail sales data suggested home improvement spending is slowing.' He added that housing starts were far weaker than consensus expectations. 'The decline in permits was concentrated in single-family, signaling a trend rather than seasonal volatility,' said Martin. 'A truce between the US and China tariffs has done little to assuage homebuilder sentiment, and continued uncertainty will keep construction depressed this year.' As the demand for new construction is crashing, the number of existing homes sitting on the market for sale is growing. Buyers now have the upper hand in a shifting housing market The toxic mix of the slow construction, rising inventory levels and weak buyer demand have also resulted in homes sitting longer on the market. Some builders are also starting to lower home prices to lure buyers. 'Builders are operating in a very challenging environment and it showed up in the May construction data,' said Hale. Tariffs are also raising the cost of building materials and Donald Trump's immigration policy is causing labor shortages. Sellers are panicking as they are being forced to slash prices and offer buyers concessions. In early June, the overall US housing market underwent a dramatic reversal, landing in favor of buyers. Buyers now have the upper hand since they have a list of options in many different markets and are in a good place to negotiate a good price. This month, there are around 2 million homes are for sale across the country, but only about 1.5 million active homebuyers are looking. That 500,000 gap marks the largest imbalance ever recorded. At the same time the total value of homes on the market has hit a record-shattering $698 billion, up more than 20 percent from the same time last year. But with far fewer buyers in the game, sellers are being forced to slash prices. 'The balance of power in the US housing market has shifted toward buyers,' Redfin senior economist Asad Khan told 'But a lot of sellers have yet to see or accept the writing on the wall.' Meanwhile, the total value of homes on the market is now $698 billion, up 20.3 percent from a year ago, and a new record, according to Redfin. Too much inventory flooding the market is also slowing demand. The number of sellers is much higher than buyers, Redfin chief economist Daryl Fairweather told the Daily Mail. 'Right now there are nearly half a million more home sellers than buyers in the market, which means that prices will have to come down in order to lure enough buyers back into the market to match the number of sellers,' she said.

EXCLUSIVE Target's own staff blow whistle on HUGE price hikes across the store: 'Everything's going up'
Target workers say prices are exploding — and shoppers are about to feel it. Store staff are posting pictures of their early morning price-changes on social media. The images show shelf labels adjusting with giant price bumps. 'I feel bad doing all these price changes when everything goes up,' one Target staffer said in a Reddit post. Another commenter added: 'I've been doing price change everyday for the past 4 months or so. Seeing everything going up all at once is really making me sad.' In one post, a Target employee shared a picture of pricing labels for a Paw Patrol toy that sold for $51.99 until May 29. The same item's price ballooned to $101.99 on June 7 — a 96 percent jump. Another post showed a box of Monster Energy drinks increasing from $15.59 to $24.99 — a nearly 38 percent spike. The hikes come as retailers grapple with inflationary pressures. Target didn't respond to questions about the cause of the price increases. But the adjustments aren't a huge surprise. At the beginning of the year, multiple executives — including Target's CEO — warned that President Donald Trump's tariffs would push prices higher on a broad range of consumer goods. Since that announcement, Target has seen a steady stream of employees turning to social media to vent about price changes. In mid-May, another employee posted a picture of an old and new label for a Heyday brand USB-C cord. The price increased from $9.99 to $17.99, an 80 percent increase. Independent analysts say the price adjustments are the result of careful modeling, not sticker shock theater. Retailers like Target rely on data and competitive pricing tools to avoid losing customers over even small increases. 'Price changes are a constant in retail and shouldn't be assumed to be nefarious,' Carol Spieckerman, a retail analyst and president of Spieckerman Retail, told 'If Target is over-stepping or gouging, it will feel the pain quickly. Shoppers are smart and do research.' Still, the price swaps are worrying Target employees, who have increasingly voiced concern over the retailer's direction and profit drops. And it's not just Target. Other major chains are seeing the same kind of social media blowback from employees tasked with adjusting thousands of prices. Target has been warning customers that some products will see price increases (stock image) Walmart staffers are posting screenshots from handheld devices on Reddit, revealing sweeping internal price hikes. 'Lately my section has been getting 5,000 to 9,000 a week,' one Walmart employee claimed, saying it marked a 40 to 50 percent increase from normal. The wave of price changes is even extending into the automotive world. At Ford and BMW dealerships, employees have leaked internal bulletins showing MSRP hikes of more than $1,000. Subaru, Toyota, and Mitsubishi have all said they're raising prices. Unlike retail chains, carmakers are often more upfront about cost shifts. But transparency comes with risk. Large corporations that openly tie rising prices to tariffs are drawing fire from the Trump administration. In May, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon warned that prices would rise in response to sweeping tariffs on Chinese goods — a comment that drew backlash from President Donald Trump. 'Walmart should STOP trying to blame Tariffs as the reason for raising prices throughout the chain,' Trump threatened on social media.' Amazon briefly considered adding a line item for tariff costs on product pages. But White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt called the potential change a 'hostile and political act. ' Since then, both Walmart and Amazon have silently raised prices — but they've kept quiet on why. And customers should expect more price hikes. According to Spieckerman, consumers scanning the toy aisle should prepare for fluctuating prices, like the Paw Patrol toy, because margins are thinner and costs are rising fast. 'They're definitely a tariff-sensitive category that is in high demand for the holidays,' she said. 'I expect prices will rise and fall based on aggressive promotions.' But for workers on the ground, that just means more price changes — and more customers asking why everything suddenly costs more.
