Many of Hollywood's biggest stars stepped out onto the red carpet this week in risqué black dresses.

Lindsay Lohan, Halsey and Brooks Nader are just three of the big names who dared to bare in revealing dresses this week, whether it be in sheer looks or one with a high slit.

Here's a look at some of the stars in little black numbers.

Helena Christensen broke the Cannes Film Festival dress code when she arrived at the red carpet screening of "Amarga Navidad" in a sheer black dress.

The backless dress featured a plunging neckline which was lined with black velvet and then flowed into a completely sheer design with black lace, giving fans a peek of her high-waisted black underwear.

She kept the accessories to a minimum and opted for a more natural hair and makeup look, letting the dress do all the talking.

HALLE BERRY AND HEIDI KLUM SHINE DESPITE NEW CANNES DRESS CODE BANNING NUDITY, 'EXCESSIVELY VOLUMINOUS' LOOKS

The Cannes Film Festival implemented a new dress code in 2025, which banned sheer dresses for "decency reasons," something a few attendees chose to overlook this year.

Christensen posted photos from the red carpet on her Instagram, with fans calling her the "most beautiful woman in the world" and "absolutely stunning."

The Danish model sported another revealing black dress at the festival, during the Knights of Charity gala on Wednesday. 

She posted photos from the night on her Instagram, captioning the post: "A truly beautiful and heartfelt evening in the most magical garden full of laughter and roses 🌹💫💜." Fans were quick to compliment her in the comments section, with one writing, "Beautiful as always ❤️❤️."

Brooks Nader stood out from the crowd when she posed for photos in a black Zuhair Murad gown at the amfAR Gala at the Cannes Film Festival.

The "Love Thy Nader" star walked the red carpet in a sheer black floor-length dress with a plunging halter neckline.

She accessorized the dress with just two rings, and styled her hair in a loose updo. Her makeup look included a dark smoky eye with bold lashes and a defined nude lip.

Halsey also chose to break the Cannes Film Festival dress code this year, walking the red carpet at the festival's screening of "Her Private Hell."

The Grammy Award-nominated singer wore a sleeveless sheer black dress which featured a layered, ruffled skirt with lace designs, which she paired with a black bodysuit.

She paired the look with a dark makeup look and accessorized her curly hair with a headband.

She kept her accessories to a minimum, opting for a pair of earrings and a ring, and went with a natural makeup look, styling her short hair in a side part.

Tara Reid made her big return to the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival after she was hospitalized in November.

The actress posed for photos at the premiere of "The Birthday Party" in a one-shoulder black dress that featured a large white flower embellishment on her shoulder, with the white fabric flowing down and forming a cape that trailed behind her. 

She wore her hair in a high bun and went for a dramatic makeup look with bold lashes and a dark smoky eye. The "Sharknado" star accessorized the dress with multiple bracelets and a statement necklace.

Last year, Reid claimed she was drugged at a hotel bar. However, police later confirmed there was no sufficient evidence of anyone tampering with the actress' drink. 

TARA REID SAYS SHE WAS DRUGGED AT HOTEL BAR, TAKEN TO CHICAGO HOSPITAL

Despite police findings, Reid fired back and said the "horrifying experience" has been affecting her mental health. 

According to video footage, Reid — who was in Chicago for Comic Con — appeared disoriented as several people helped her into a wheelchair. Slurring her words and visibly confused, she was seen clinging onto a hotel guest before being seated. In another clip, the "American Pie" alum was seen being taken out of the hotel on a stretcher by paramedics, with onlookers shouting words of support.

There is a rather distinct line in tennis that players can't cross when it comes to letting out frustrations. Kicking your racket into the crowd would constitute as crossing said line, yet somehow, Germany’s Daniel Altmaier came away relatively unscathed.

During the second set of his quarterfinal matchup against American Tommy Paul in the Hamburg Open on Thursday, Altmaier threw his racket onto the court after Paul broke his serve.

Tennis players throw and destroy their rackets all the time, but Altmaier took things a significant step further.

With his racket bouncing back toward him after ricocheting off his bench, the German decided to kick his racket. The racket made its way back to him a second time, and he elected to deliver just one more kick for good measure, which sent the piece of hardware a couple of rows into the crowd.

The gentleman who caught the racket and casually tossed it back to the 27-year-old player didn't think too much of the situation, and the same goes for the chair umpire, Fergus Murphy.

Murphy did issue Altmaier a code violation for racket abuse, but did not issue him a default, which is immediate disqualification from the match.

The ATP rulebook has a relatively straightforward ruling on racket abuse: "Players shall not violently, dangerously or with anger hit, kick or throw a racket or other equipment within the precincts of the tournament site.

"For purposes of this rule, abuse of rackets or equipment is defined as intentionally, dangerously and violently destroying or damaging rackets or equipment or intentionally and violently hitting the net, court, umpire’s chair or other fixture during a match out of anger or frustration."

It certainly appeared that Altmaier checked every box above as he threw his racket intentionally before intentionally kicking it into the crowd, but was able to continue on in the match. With the racket not injuring anyone in the crowd, Altmaier was essentially given the benefit of the doubt.

Paul went on to win the match 6-2, 7-5, but if Altmaier had earned the victory after the intense outburst, it's fair to say the American would not have taken kindly to the result, and understandably so.

One of the most recent and noteworthy defaults involved Novak Djokovic, when he defaulted from the 2020 U.S. Open after hitting a ball away in frustration that hit a line judge in the throat.

The next logical question on everyone's mind after Aaron Rodgers agreed to return for another NFL season last week is: Would he continue deciding year-to-year on how long he'd play, or would this be his final year?

Well, we have an answer from Rodgers himself.

"Yes," Rodgers told reporters on Wednesday when asked if he's retiring after this year.

"This is it, yeah."

AARON RODGERS SET TO BEGIN 22ND NFL SEASON WITH PITTSBURGH STEELERS

So, Rodgers intends to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers in what is his 22nd season and call it a career after that.

Now comes the part where some people will think this is a good thing, a fitting end because Rodgers is 42-years-old and will be 43 in December, and obviously old enough to know his own mind and how much he has left in the proverbial tank.

Some people will think this is terrible, because what if he's really good this season? What if he surprises himself? What are we going to do without Aaron Rodgers quarterbacksplaining to his teammates exactly how to run the plays they may or may not have practiced the previous week?

And some people, well, won't believe a word Rodgers is saying.

Because he's been known to change his mind before.

He's been known to play with words before.

He's been known to be kind of hard to predict both on and off the field.

All of that is in play.

But assuming Rodgers does indeed have a plan to play one more season and then disappear into private life — as he has promised he'd do in the past — it has to be said that no matter what happens this coming season, his legacy is pretty much already written.

Aaron Rodgers is a Super Bowl champion and four-time NFL MVP. Only Peyton Manning, with five MVP awards, has won more.

And yes, Rodgers still has a chance to tie him if he balls out this season.

Aaron Rodgers currently ranks:

Only Tom Brady, Drew Brees and Manning have thrown more TD passes than Rodgers. Rodgers may eclipse Manning's TD mark of 539 this season and finish third on the all-time list. Brady (649) and Brees (571) are likely out of reach in the TD pass category.

Only Brady, Brees, Manning and Brett Favre have more career passing yards than Rodgers, who has 66,275. He would have to have an unlikely monster season to catch Manning who finished with 71,838 passing yards.

The point is Rodgers has eye-popping statistics that put him among the elite quarterbacks ever to play the game. He is a certain future Hall of Famer.

Will he be considered among the all-time greats? That's another question.

That's not an answer that always relies on statistics but rather includes opinion and number of Super Bowls won and how the fickle media felt about a player.

The thinking here is Rodgers won't care much about that.

He knows who he is, how he played, and apparently, when he's walking away.

Central Command Commander Adm. Brad Cooper sharply rebuked Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton during a tense House Armed Services Committee hearing Tuesday after the Massachusetts Democrat questioned "how many more Americans" would die because of what he called a failed Iran strategy.

"It doesn't seem to be going well," Moulton, D-Mass., said of the Iran war. "And I would like to know how many more Americans we have to ask to die for this mistake."

"I think it’s an entirely inappropriate statement from you, sir," Cooper responded.

Moulton shot back: "It’s not a statement, it’s a question."

TRUMP’S IRAN STRATEGY SHOWCASES ‘DOCTRINE OF UNPREDICTABILITY’ AMID STRIKE THREATS AND SUDDEN PAUSE

Fourteen U.S. service members have died in combat since the U.S. launched Operation Epic Fury Feb. 28. 

Moulton, a Marine Corps Iraq War veteran and frequent critic of the Trump administration’s Iran strategy, pressed Cooper repeatedly on what he described as the widening consequences of the conflict, including instability in the Strait of Hormuz, rising oil prices and reports that Iran had rebuilt parts of its missile infrastructure.

Cooper pushed back on several of the claims, calling reports that Iran had reconstituted key missile sites "inaccurate" and repeatedly emphasizing that U.S. forces had achieved their assigned military objectives.

The hearing came just after Trump said he directed the military to pause planned operations against Iran for Tuesday at the request of Gulf allies who wanted negotiations with Tehran to continue. The U.S. has been adhering to a ceasefire since April 7. 

Gulf leaders asked Trump to pause strikes because "serious negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion, as Great Leaders and Allies, a Deal will be made, which will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all Countries in the Middle East, and beyond," he wrote on Truth Social Monday. 

"This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN!" he said.

DEMS SIDESTEP PAST ‘REFUSE ILLEGAL ORDERS’ DEMANDS AS THEY CHALLENGE TRUMP’S IRAN WAR AUTHORITY

The confrontation capped hours of contentious exchanges in which Democrats repeatedly pressed Cooper and Pentagon officials on whether the administration had a viable strategy beyond military strikes, whether ongoing operations complied with the War Powers Resolution and whether the conflict was making the United States less secure despite major battlefield gains against Iran.

Democrats also repeatedly challenged the administration over whether ongoing operations complied with the War Powers Resolution, arguing the continued blockade of Iranian ports and military exchanges in the Strait of Hormuz amounted to active hostilities.

Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif., pressed Cooper over continued military operations in the region, noting U.S. forces had fired on Iranian tankers and exchanged fire with Iranian forces even after the administration notified Congress that hostilities had ended.

"The fact of the matter is that hostilities continue," Garamendi said, accusing the administration of disregarding Congress and the Constitution.

Rep. Joe Courtney, D-Conn., similarly argued that the blockade itself constituted "an act of war," while several Democrats questioned whether the administration planned to seek congressional authorization for any future escalation.

Republicans on the panel, meanwhile, defended the campaign as a historic military success that dramatically weakened Iran’s ability to threaten the United States and its allies. 

Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Ala., said U.S. operations had "rolled back 40 years of Iranian military investment" and argued the campaign had made both the United States and its allies safer.

Cooper later testified that Iran was "significantly less capable" than before the strikes and said U.S. military action had "derailed Iran’s strategy" across its nuclear, missile and proxy networks.

It was a crumby thing to do.

The owners of a popular cupcake shop in Washington's upscale Georgetown neighborhood are asking for the public's help identifying a man seen on surveillance video smashing their front window with a beer keg.

It happened around 11 p.m. Sunday at Georgetown Cupcake, located at the intersection of 33rd and M streets just a few blocks from the Potomac River.

The owners, Sophie LaMontagne and Katherine Berman, are sisters and the stars of Discovery's "DC Cupcakes," which aired from 2010 to 2013 and highlighted how they quit their respective jobs in finance and fashion to open the business.

For years, they also streamed footage from the shop around the clock.

Now, they're hoping someone recognizes the vandal from surveillance video so he can have his just desserts.

"Employees were on-site and could have been seriously injured," the shop owners wrote on X in a post that included surveillance video from inside and outside.

He stops in front of the store, struggles to lift it over his head and then hurls it through the window.

Anyone with information on the suspect is asked to contact Metro police at 202-730-1903.

The incident comes amid an outbreak of youth crime that led U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro to pledge to crack down on their parents. On Saturday, a mob of teens kicked off a brawl at a Chipotle restaurant in the city's Navy Yard neighborhood, throwing chairs, tables and punches.

The vandalism occurred about a half mile from where U.S. Secret Service agents opened fire on a group of carjackers near the home of former President Joe Biden's granddaughter in 2023.

People who regularly visit museums or participate in creative activities may be aging more slowly on a biological level, according to a new study from the United Kingdom.

Researchers from University College London analyzed data from more than 3,500 adults and found that people who frequently engaged in arts and cultural activities showed signs of slower biological aging in several DNA-based measurements.

The findings were published in the journal Innovation in Aging.

CREATIVE HOBBIES KEEP THE BRAIN YOUNG, STUDY FINDS — HERE ARE THE BEST ONES TO PURSUE

The study examined activities including painting, photography, dancing, singing, visiting museums and attending cultural events or historic sites.

Researchers compared participation in those activities with "epigenetic clocks," scientific tools that examine chemical changes in DNA over time.

Adults who participated more often, and in a wider variety of activities, tended to show slower aging scores compared to people who rarely engaged in arts or cultural experiences.

ANTI-AGING BENEFITS LINKED TO ONE SURPRISING HEALTH HABIT

The association appeared even stronger among adults over age 40.

Researchers also noted that the effect sizes were comparable to those linked to physical activity, one of the most widely studied behaviors associated with healthy aging.

Jessica Mack, a health and wellness expert and founder of The Functional Consulting Group who was not involved in the study, said the findings reflect a growing understanding that health is influenced by more than exercise and nutrition alone.

"Arts and cultural engagement may be associated with slower epigenetic aging, with effects comparable in some measures to physical activity," Mack told Fox News Digital.

She said activities such as visiting museums and engaging with music or art may help reduce stress, improve emotional regulation and increase social connection.

"These are not ‘extra’ lifestyle activities," Mack said. "They may be deeply connected to how the body manages inflammation, stress hormones, mood and overall resilience."

Mack added that people experiencing stress, social isolation, retirement or caregiving responsibilities may especially benefit from meaningful cultural engagement.

Experts cautioned, however, that the study does not prove arts engagement directly slows aging.

"This is an observational study, not an experiment," Professor Steve Horvath of UCLA, a longevity researcher and pioneer in epigenetic aging research who was not involved in the study, told Fox News Digital.

TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ

"So when researchers find that the people who go to museums have younger epigenetic age, we cannot tell whether the museum visits slowed their aging, or whether their slower aging is what allowed them to keep visiting museums," he said.

Horvath said both explanations may be true to some degree, though he described the research as "methodologically careful" and worthy of further study.

The findings remained consistent even after accounting for factors such as smoking, income, body weight and other lifestyle habits.

He added that regardless of whether arts engagement is directly slowing biological aging, staying socially and mentally active is still associated with healthier aging overall.

"The prescription is the same," he said. "Keep going."
