June 10 (UPI) -- Giada De Laurentiis will help gift a family the kitchen of their dreams in her Prime Video special Giada in My Kitchen, due June 23.
In a trailer released Tuesday, De Laurentiis, 54, discusses her upcoming show near a fireplace.
"I think I know a thing or two about setting up a great kitchen," the celebrity chef and former Food Network star said. "So many cooks are stuck with a kitchen that isn't working for them."
That will change by the end of the special -- De Laurentiis will partner with Erik Garcia to renovate the space.
"A great kitchen should feel like a dance -- everything in its place, just where you need it," she told People. "...I always prioritize flow and function first, then layer in beauty through natural materials like marble, wood and stone to bring warmth, texture and personality into the space."
Giada left Food Network in 2023 after more than two decades, hosting such shows as Everyday Italian, Giada at Home and Giada's Weekend Getaways.

From 'Minecraft' to 'Snow White,' 10 movies you need to stream right now

From 'Minecraft' to 'Snow White,' 10 movies you need to stream right now Show Caption Hide Caption 'Chicken jockey!' Viral trend causes chaos at 'Minecraft' screenings In the U.S. and U.K., moviegoers are going wild when Jack Black shouts, "Chicken jockey!" during "A Minecraft Movie." Love movies? Live for TV? USA TODAY's Watch Party newsletter has all the best recommendations, delivered right to your inbox. Sign up now and be one of the cool kids. Now you can finally understand why your middle schooler has been saying "Chicken jockey!" for the past couple of months. The video-game hit "A Minecraft Movie" is one of several new streaming films that have arrived on your various streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon's Prime Video, Disney+ and more. There are theatrical releases finally coming home, including a Liam Neeson gangster thriller and an oddball Kristen Stewart movie, plus original fare like a K-pop animated adventure and a documentary about historic astronaut Sally Ride. Here are 10 notable new movies you can stream right now: 'Absolution' After finding out he doesn't have much time to live, an aging mob enforcer (Liam Neeson) seeks to make things right with his estranged daughter and grandson, plus do some good – by doing some bad – before the clock runs out. Have one last dose of action-movie Neeson before he goes full absurd in "The Naked Gun." Where to watch: Hulu 'The Accountant 2' There's sadly not as much math as in 2016's original "The Accountant," which became a surprise cult hit on cable TV. Plenty of bro love fills that gap in the serviceable sequel, which teams action-hero CPA Christian (Ben Affleck) with his hit-man sibling Braxton (Jon Bernthal) to solve a mystery involving a broken family and human trafficking. Where to watch: Prime Video 'Cleaner' Daisy Ridley stars in the action thriller as a window cleaner struggling to keep her job and care for her autistic older brother (Matthew Tuck). A day at work turns harrowing when environmental activists take the building hostage. So it's a good thing she's a former British soldier in a high-stakes drama that one could call "Die Hard" with Windex. Where to watch: Max 'Deep Cover' There's a motley crew at work in this action comedy, with Bryce Dallas Howard as an improv comedy teacher recruited to infiltrate the London crime scene. She enlists the help of two students (Orlando Bloom and "Ted Lasso" breakout Nick Mohammed) and they accidentally become decent gangsters. Where to watch: Prime Video 'Echo Valley' Julianne Moore is in the conversation for Movie Mom of the Year. She starts in the twisty thriller as a horse trainer struggling to keep her business afloat after her wife's death. Things get worse as efforts to reconnect with her addict daughter (Sydney Sweeney) end up with the mother going to extremes to cover up a dead body. Where to watch: Apple TV+ 'KPop Demon Hunters' Catchy music, anime style and some horror combine in this kid-friendly action comedy. When the members of Korean pop trio Huntrix aren't busy being mega-stars, they protect their fans from supernatural dangers. But dark secrets and hormones become issues, thanks to their latest enemy: demons disguised as a hunky boy band. Where to watch: Netflix 'Love Me' Are you ready for a romantic sort-of-comedy between inanimate objects? Hundreds of years after mankind is wiped out, a smart buoy (Kristen Stewart) turns on and strikes up a friendship with the last satellite (Steven Yeun) launched into space. This weird couple literally gets more real as time passes, trying ice cream for the first time and opening up to each other. Where to watch: Paramount+ 'A Minecraft Movie' Kids are going to love it, as will anyone with a soft spot for the glorious weirdness of "Napoleon Dynamite." The adventure centers on misfits stuck in a fantasy world that makes the most of their creativity, with an unhinged Jack Black singing about lava chicken and a hilariously macho Jason Momoa gamely taking the brunt of the gags. Where to watch: Max 'Sally' While this revealing documentary about Sally Ride obviously touches on her being the first American woman in space, it's more interested in getting into her personal life. The movie digs into her tennis roots, the misogyny she dealt with regularly at NASA, and the lesbian romance she kept private for 27 years knowing it wouldn't be accepted. Where to watch: Disney+, Hulu 'Snow White' Rachel Zegler is enchanting as the title character, even if the Disney live-action musical remake plays it too safe. Targeted for death by her evil queen stepmom (a camped-out Gal Gadot), scullery maid Snow high-tails it to a nearby forest and makes some friends – including seven little miner dudes – before sparking her own revolution.

Heather Graham's secrets to fountain of youth as she admits she's happier than ever in her 50s

Heather Graham navigates the pressures of staying youthful in Hollywood with ease. Graham shared her secrets with Retreat Magazine about her philosophy when it comes to aging. "I think what matters most is how you feel inside. Decide that you're hot and enjoy your life. What other people think of you is none of your business. If you feel good about yourself, no one can take that away from you. Pursue the things that fill you with joy, and surround yourself with loving people," the 55-year-old actress said. Graham continued, "I don't drink or do drugs, and I get a lot of sleep. Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love it when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating! Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful. I work on strengthening my inner loving parent muscle, so I can be supportive and loving to myself. One of my affirmations is: 'This is the best time of my life.'" During an interview with People in April, Graham admitted to being a happier person after she turned 55. "I feel like as I get older, I just care less about things that don't matter. Everyone gets upset sometimes, but I think that I'm happier. I've done enough hard work on myself that I feel like I'm a happier person now," Graham, who turned 55 in January, told the outlet. "Decide that you're hot and enjoy your life." The "Boogie Nights" star has been focused on wellness since she was 21. Graham works out, eats healthily, does yoga and meditates. The actress told Retreat Magazine that even incorporating those things into her daily routine does not compare to having "loving people around you." "I have some wonderful friends, and I am so grateful for them." "I think the most important thing is to love yourself, because then you have more love to give. Fill up your cup first before you give to other people. Also, it's so good to have a sense of humor!" Graham said. Along with her wellness secrets, Graham does not drink or do drugs. However, she is part of an AI-Anon, which is a 12-step group for people who have a friend or family member who struggles with addiction. "I have never had a problem with drinking or drugs, but sometimes I have problems with relationships. Or if you have any difficult people in your life, it can help you learn how to deal with them better, in a more loving way, and most importantly, to take better care of yourself," she told Retreat Magazine. During her interview, Graham shared that she is "ahead of her time" when it comes to embracing her sexuality. "Nowadays, so many women are enjoying their sexuality, but when I was coming up, there was definitely judgment around that. It's great to watch younger women feel freer to be sexual and not to worry about cultural bias," she said. Graham got her start in the entertainment industry when she left her parents' home at 18 and moved to West Hollywood, California, with a roommate. At the time, her father warned her that Hollywood would "claim [her] soul." "He regularly told me that the entertainment industry was evil and that Hollywood would claim my soul," Graham said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in 2024. She noted that her parents "were part of a generation that didn't believe in therapy or discussing personal things, so I never felt I could talk to them." Following the premiere of her movie "License to Drive" in 1988, Graham knew it was time to move out of her parents' home. "When the movie came out, I was 18, living at home had become more difficult," she said. "I said to myself, 'I've got to get out of here, I've got to be successful, and I've got to be a movie star.'" Graham graduated from high school with a 5.0 GPA and went on to study English at UCLA. After her junior year at the university, she decided to drop out to focus on her acting career. At this time, Graham landed major roles in the films "Austin Powers" and "Swingers," which made her realize she was "self-sufficient," and she began to reevaluate her relationship with her parents. "I stopped talking to my parents when I was 25, and I'm estranged from them now," Graham admitted. "My friends are proud of me, and I'm proud of myself. I have really good friends." The actress is proud of the life she has created for herself. "I live in Los Angeles in a house I bought last year. I also have a loft in New York," she said, noting that her West Coast home "has views of the Pacific."
