Olympic prospects profiled beginning on page 163, who hope to

I am still dreaming about Marie Claires epic Power Trip, a 36-hour pop-up
conference we cohosted in March, in partnership with JetBlue, W Hotels, Dell,
Intel, Tacori, and Shiseido. Channeling the mantra Go big or go home, we flew 100
VIPs in fashion, media, and entertainment from New York on a chartered JetBlue
plane to San Francisco, where we met up with another 100 alpha women in tech for
a first-of-its-kind networking event. There were so many highlights: the all-female
flight crew (from pilots to mechanics); the keynote by actress turned Goop mogul
Gwyneth Paltrow; a cocktail party at the breathtaking home of tech titan Xochi
Birch (a home that actually features a pub imported from London); a superb dinner
at the Williams-Sonoma headquarters, catered by five of the Bay Areas top lady
chefs, with wines paired by our April cover star Drew Barrymore. (Special thanks
to culinary gurus Nancy Oakes, Dominique Crenn, Tanya Holland, Emily Luchetti,
and Melissa Perello for the meal of a lifetime. Truly.) The event closed with a
no-holds-barred talk about diversity, beauty, and feminism with Black-ish star
Tracee Ellis Ross, my new favorite person.

CHANGE AGENT

The trajectory of my life changed recently because


of injuries I sustained in a car accident. I was
forced to give up my day job and was struggling
for months because I felt Id lost my sense of
purpose. After poring over each motivating entry
of the entrepreneurs from your Boss issue [@Work],
I realized that I can still create my own path to
success. It was the exact inspiration I needed!
Jeanie Crittenden, Wichita, KS

SCENTS AND SENSIBILITY

Thank you for recognizing the transgender, genderfluid, and gender-queer communities in the Gender
Fluid article [March 2016] about the rise of fragrances that arent marketed to one specific sex. As a
woman who has been wearing them for years (current
favorites include Le Labos Santal 33 and Jo Malones
Wood Sage and Sea Salt), Im excited to see society
embracing this trend. A collective refusal to conform
to norms regarding how we should smell paves the
way for doing away with so many other superfluous
and harmful beauty standards as well.
Marie Fisher, Portland, OR

READER OF THE MONTH!

BROOKE SHAFFNER

This is the first memoir-istic story Ive


written in five years, says Shaffner, who lives
in Brooklyn, of the Love & Sex essay Letting
Go (p. 172). I remembered how hard memoir
is: You relive things when you write them.
But transforming my memories into something comprehensive was incredibly healing.

Winterson. FAVORITE MEAL: A hearty macrobiotic bowl at Sun In Bloom in Brooklyn.

NING CHAO

Feng, a New Yorker, photographed


Selena Gomez for the cover story (The
Unstoppable Selena, p. 126). I didnt know
what to expect going in, but Selena has such
a lovable personality, and shes also an
amazing mover, says the photographer. I
could shoot her in a documentary style all
day long! PERSONAL STYLE IN A WORD: Simple.
FAVORITE ACTOR: Jake Gyllenhaal.

Chao, who calls L.A. home, interviewed


January Jones for In Her Own Words (p. 106).
January is not Betty Draper, she says. I
was a big Mad Men fan, so it was fun taking
a walk down memory lane and revisiting her
characters hairstyles. FAVORITE ACCESSORY:

FAVORITE SNACK: Trader Joes White Cheddar
Popcorn with truffle oil drizzled on top.

California, the 80s, and Kodachrome

She arrived in a nude Naked Wardrobe crop top with matching
leggings, a trench coat, black-and-white Kenneth Cole slip-on

featuring Drake and The Weeknd, and even rapped along to
Down in the DM by Yo Gotti. Later, she danced to Rihannas
Work in a white Balmain fringe dress. SET THE STAGE: The
Disney alum revealed that Britney Spears was both her first CD
purchase and first concert. (Her mom told her they were
going to Six Flags, then surprised her with the tickets.) We

HAIR: To achieve Gomezs crazy-bouncy locks, hairstylist Jenny


Cho applied a volumizing mousse mixed with a pea-size amount
of serum for extra shine. She then blowdried the actresss
hair and bent small sections with a flatiron, creating movement
throughout. To finish, Cho added even more volume with a
liberal spray of dry shampoo at the roots. MAKEUP: Makeup
artist Hung Vanngo kept things simple with dewy skin and
barely-there winged eyeliner. The clothes on set were superglam, so I wanted to keep her beauty look fresh and effortless,
explains Vanngo. After prepping Gomezs skin with moisturizer
and a sheer foundation, he used a creamy, bronze-hued eyeshadow on her upper creases and lower lashlines to accentuate
her almond-shaped eyes. To complete the look, Vanngo blended
on a mocha liner for a muted cat-eye effect. NAILS: Manicurist
Tom Bachik made a custom color by layering a pearlescent
white polish over neutral pink. The shimmer picked up light
and sparkled like diamond dust, he says. Claire Fontanetta

like Uber and Snapchat, but never fashion


until now. This season, designers like Guccis
Alessandro Michele (who collaborated with Creative Director
ultra-edgy graffiti artist GucciGhost), Alexander NI NA G ARC IA
Wang (who paraded stripper- and pot-leaf-emblazoned pieces
down the aisles of New Yorks St. Bartholomews Church), and
Demna Gvasalia (whose disaffected, slogan-covered streetwear
for Vetements has even the most uptown girls sporting
hoodies) are proving that upending the norm with something
wildly unexpected is exactly what people want. Why?
Because in an industry where things are so often predictable
(florals for spring? groundbreaking), curveballs
jostle the senses. They wake us up, keep things fresh
and that is what fashion is all about. @ninagarcia

in pattern-making classes at Parsons on the sideMaeda
launched Adeam (her last name spelled backward) in 2012 to
create something that the 28-year-old says reflected my
generation. She knew the risks; her parents run an upscale
ready-to-wear line, Foxey, in Japan, so she grew up watching
her mother sew and source fabrics in Italy. When youre
exposed to fashion early on, you appreciate how hard it is
to do something completely new and different, she says.
So what makes Adeam special? The juxtaposition of New
York modernism and Tokyo traditionalismtwo opposite
influences, says Maeda, who splits her time between both
cities. Lady Gaga is a fan, and after Net-a-Porter scooped up
the spring collection, most pieces sold out within a week. For
fall, Maeda was inspired by Japanese arts and crafts, namely
boro: an 18th-century textile-making technique of patching
together old fabric scraps. The resulting origami-like tops,
drapey pants, and asymmetrical knits got an added dose
of drama on the runway from a 24-member orchestra
(her boyfriend, a classical pianist, wrote and performed
a piece for the show). Brava! Carolina ONeill

WADE AND SEA


Tiffanys new jewelry collection dips into familiar waters
An estimated two-thirds of species living in the worlds oceans have yet to be
discovered. For Tiffany & Co., that just means more design inspiration. Fresh off
exploring deep-sea themes in last years Blue Book (the brands annual catalog of oneof-a-kind jewels), design director Francesca Amfitheatrof is diving in againthis time
into shallower waters. From spiraled earrings resembling swirling seashells to necklaces
that shimmer like iridescent fish scales, 200 creations rendered in stones like tanzanite,
tourmaline, aquamarine, and diamond tell a story of the wondrous world unfolding
beneath the earths surface, says Amfitheatrof. While some piecesstarfish cuffs,
jumping-fish earrings, and a pair of frog brooches, for exampletake a literal approach,
others are more subtle, like a geometric diamond bracelet set in a way that echoes the
movement of waves. Considering the houses commitment to coral conservation (it
donated more than $1 million to the effort in 2015 alone), celebrating the ocean again
felt natural, says Amfitheatrof. Splash, made. Carolina ONeill

Bulgari celebrates its spirit animal


with a new watch line and art exhibit
From appearing on Athenas almighty shield to prompting the fall
of Adam and Eve, snakes hold meaning in almost every culture.
To Bulgari, they represent success. Ever since brothers Costantino
and Giorgio Bulgari created the first Serpenti watch in the 1940s,
the motif has expanded onto necklaces, bracelets, rings, and bags
coveted by women like Elizabeth Taylor (who wore her Serpenti
watch on the set of 1963s Cleopatra). To repay the animal for
providing boundless inspiration, Bulgari is dubbing 2016 the year
of the snake. In March, two one-of-a-kind necklacesa 57-carat
emerald-and-diamond pendant and a wood-inlaid lariat style
were unveiled at the houses SerpentiForm exhibition at the
Museo di Roma, which showcased reptilian artworks including
painted doors by Keith Haring, photographs by Helmut Newton,
and antique jewelry dating back to Pompeii. And this month,
Bulgari debuts Serpenti Incantati, a watch with the snakes
sinuous body spiraling around the dial as opposed to the wrist.
I remembered a brooch from our archives with the snake coiled
into a circle and thought, Why dont we make a rounded watch like
that? says Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani, Bulgaris head of watch
design. Instead of being hidden inside the serpents
head, the dial sits open in the middle, encircled
by a ring of diamonds (or rubies, in the
4
rose-gold version), while the scales are
spread apart to modernize the silhouette.
Were charmed. Carolina ONeill

tanding in Times Square on her first


visit to New York at age 16, Project
Runway season 12 winner Dom
Streater was mesmerized by the neon
lights and oversize signs. It was an
assault on my senses, she says. There
was so much to take in. Little did she
know then, that moment would help
her 11 years later while vying to win top
honorsagainthis time on Project
Runway All Stars. After impressing the judges all season
with her custom-made fabrics and mad pattern-mixing
skills, the Philadelphia native found herself among the
last three contestants, tasked with designing an eightlook finale collection inspired by none other than the
Big Apple. I immediately went back to that moment,
says Streater. After painting abstract brushstrokes onto faux leather to evoke the blur of city
lights and whipping up her own plaid pattern
resembling subway grids, she mixed in sculptural
black-and-white pieces to capture the citys grit.
MC Senior Fashion Editor and All Stars mentor
Zanna Roberts Rassi was impressed: It was ultramodern. Dom has such strong DNA as a designer.
Looking ahead, Streaterwho just married her
longtime Ukrainian boyfriend and is due to have
a baby girl this monthwants to take things slow.
In addition to designing collections for BaubleBar
and Chinese Laundry (part of her winning prize),
she plans to produce nonseasonal pieces from her
West Philadelphia studio, where the self-described
nature geek and comic-book fan rocks out to R&B
tracks. Its either Marvin Gaye or Ukrainian for
Beginners tapes, she says, laughing. The neighbors probably think Im crazy! And while Streater
doesnt have a drivers license (she gets around
town on her bike instead), shes excited for the road
aheadand enjoying the ride. Carolina ONeill

DAYS

The style editor hits the West Coast,


including a stop at a luxe party pad

Senior Fashion Editor ZA N NA R OB E RTS R A SSI

Early birds get the makeover! At 6 a.m. on a recent morning, I


plucked two lucky ladies from the crowd outside NYCs Rockefeller
Plaza, where Today is filmed, to get a head-to-toe Ambush
Makeover. After an emotional session with our glam squad and
a twirl in the fashion closet with me, the women walked out
looking like movie stars for the big reveal with Hoda Kotb and
Jenna Bush Hager in front of millions of viewers.
The next day, I shipped out to Minneapolis to style an entire season at the sprawling Target headquarters. The only thing keeping us
going during the 16-hour days was the fried-chicken sandwiches
from our new favorite place, 4 Bells. Afterward, I headed to Palm
Springs, California, to style the Target swim looks at an Oscarwinning actors party pad! The house has six bedrooms, seven and a
half bathrooms, a guesthouse, a tennis court, a fireplace, a pool, and
a cocktail barand can be rented for the cool price of $4,500 per
night. Oscar-winning actor: If you ever need a house sitter, call me!
Next up was Marie Claires 36-hour Power Trip, where 100 of
the most inspiring women of NYC got to mingle at 39,000 feet,
then meet 100 of the most inspiring women of San Francisco
upon landing. I wore a heavy, black-denim jumpsuit and a pair
of sneakersequal parts comfy and cool enough to carry me in

plus areas for meditation, which Id never done before until two
of my fellow Power Trippersdesigner Misha Nonoo and A&E
Networks president and CEO Nancy Dubucinsisted I try it
using the Headspace app. Im no transcendental pro, but I
definitely felt the benefits of zone-out time. We arrived at the
W hotel, where, after a record-breaking three-minute wardrobe
change, I was onstage moderating a talk on branding with the
one and only Tyra Banks, YouTube icon Bethany Mota, and
Beautycon entrepreneur Moj Mahdara. At dinner, I tasted a
lot of wine with Drew Barrymore. We talked about our beauty
lines, Flower (hers) and Milk Makeup (mine), and the vices and
virtues of micromanaging.
Hair has been a focal point for me this month. I had my
long-standing/-suffering hairdresser, Sean Gallagher, tint mine
rose gold. Im really into it, as are my 1-year-old twins, who think
Im an anime character!
I finally got some downtime by decamping to my friend

DEMNAS DEBUT

Vetements designer Demna Gvasalia made his widely anticipated debut


at Balenciaga with a collection mixing elements of past and future. Suiting
got a hit of structure with padded hips and hourglass waists right out of
the gate, followed by sporty reimaginings of Cristbal Balenciagas iconic
cocoon coat (in anorak and puffer form) and jackets with an off-the-shoulder
silhouette. Throw in vintage floral prints paired with candy-cane-striped
tights, and the result was clothes that surprised, delighted, and promised to
keep us guessingand looking forward to whats next.

Attention, fans of Peter Pilottos


colorful runway creations:
Now theres jewelry to love,
too. For fall, the label worked
with Atelier Swarovski to
develop a 12-piece line of
vibrant crystal rings, bracelets, earrings, and necklaces
(plus a hairpin) meant to
evoke tree branches. Geometric
yet organic-feeling, the styles
express the same playfulness
as our ready-to-wear collections, say designers Peter
Pilotto and Christopher de
Vos. We say, play on.

By LE A G OLD MAN

MARIE CLAIRE: YOU GRADUATED FROM


BROWN WITH AN ART HISTORY DEGREE.
WHAT WAS YOUR PLAN?
JILL FURMAN: I grew up in Manhattan, going
to the movies and theater, and I always
wanted to be a producer. When I was young,
I wanted to win an Oscar as producer for best
film. My father was an investment banker
with a specialty in media and entertainment,
so my sister and I were exposed to the business at a very young age. He would bring
home the movie grosses, and we would guess
them. Were an entertainment-crazed family.
After college, I started at [talent agency] ICM,
working for an agent, and then went out to
Los Angeles for three and a half years. Then I
got my MBA at Columbia.
MC: DO YOU NEED AN MBA TO BE A PRODUCER?
JF: I wanted to start a production company,

and I thought it would be helpful because


I was always sort of scared of numbers. I
wanted to make it easier for myself to look at
spreadsheets, to be able to understand investing. Im glad I did it, because when I started
out raising money, I could walk the walk and
talk the talk. One thing I wish I could tell my
younger self would be to have more confidence. I now have a lot of confidence, but
when I was younger, I didntthere are probably a lot of women who feel similarly. Also,
Im tiny. Ive always looked younger than I
am. So I think [the MBA] did help me.

CLOSE-UP

PROFILE
MC: HOW DID YOU BREAK INTO THEATER?
JF: My father left investment banking and

joined forces with two other producers to


start a company that produced two shows on
Broadway. I associate-produced those shows.
I helped raise money and was involved in
marketing and advertising. I had been doing
notes on scripts in Hollywood for so long, so
I felt like I could analyze scripts and help
give notes and shape something creatively.
Being an associate producer is a way to dip
your toe in the water.

MC: THE PRODUCER IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE


FOR FINDING INVESTORS, RIGHT?
JF: Its a large piece insofar as you cannot pro-

MC: HOW DID YOU MEET LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA,


THE CREATOR AND STAR OF HAMILTON ?
JF: In 2003, I went to an early reading of In

the Heights [the musical written by and starring Miranda, which went on to win the Tony
for Best Musical in 2008]. What I heard on
that stage completely blew me away. I have
chills talking about it now. I sat forward in my
seat in a way that I never dohe was rapping
about his community, his bodega, his friends.
It was lyrically dense and smart, and the
music was refreshingI just hadnt heard
sounds like that on the stage before. I
thought, I need to be in this persons life. The
thing Im most proud of is that I discovered
Lin very early, and I trusted my gut and I
believed in his talent.

MC: IM ALWAYS SURPRISED BY HOW LONG IT


TOOK TO GET IN THE HEIGHTS TO BROADWAY.
JF: It took years and years of development

we werent on Broadway until 2008. Lin was


teaching English during that time and dancing at bar mitzvahs. [The other producers
and I] invested several hundred thousand
dollars, over the course of a couple years.
That paid for space, actors, presentations.

Hamilton,
which plays to
sellout crowds
every night,
grosses
$1.8 million
weekly

I gave feedback: what worked, what didnt,


what needed to be strengthened. In theater,
the writer is king or queen, but if youre
working with producers who really believe
in you and know what they are doing,
theyre looking out for your best interest.
So theres a give-and-take.

MC: HOW DID HAMILTON COME ABOUT?


JF: Lin thought he was just going to write a

hip-hop concept album. The more he wrote,


the more he realized that, well, maybe this is
something. And in 2012, he performed 12
songs at Lincoln Center. Holy moly. I was
just blown away. People were losing their
minds. I knew I was going to be involved in
it. Yes, I was lucky, certainly. But luck is the
residue of design. And I believed in someones talent. I recognized it early, and I put
my money where my mouth is.

MC: THERE ARE ONLY A FEW PRODUCERS


ON HAMILTON. HOW DOES THAT DIFFER
FROM OTHER BIG MUSICALS?
JF: Oftentimes, youll see 10, 20 names of

producers above the title of the showthe


general partners, who are in control of
the project, and then the coproducers, who
come on board to help raise capital, who are
listed beneath them. On Hamilton, there
are only four producers: three general partners (Jeffrey Seller, Sander Jacobs, and me)

and The Public Theater, where the show was


originally produced and presented. We knew
we had a special piece and were lucky that we
didnt need to bring on any additional producers to help finance the move to Broadway.

MC: YOUVE ALSO PRODUCED AN UPDATED


VERSION OF CINDERELLA AND THE DROWSY
CHAPERONEAND, NOW, HAMILTON,
WIDELY CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST
BROADWAY MUSICALS IN HISTORY. HOW DO
YOU DECIDE WHAT SHOWS TO PRODUCE?
JF: I always say I want to do something thats

going to surprise people, thats unique, that


feels freshbut it has to be commercial. I
have to believe that its going to appeal to an
audience, because this is a business. Im not
interested in just doing little niche projects
that I think are cool.

MC: WHAT DO YOU HAVE LINED UP NEXT?


JF: I want to do something a little different,

so I am going to produce this movie by a


friend of mine, a screenwriter. And Im also
in discussions with a cable network to produce a live musical with them. Ive never
produced live television. So it just feels new
and exciting. A big part of my life is also that
Im a single mother to a 16-month-old boy. I
gave birth in December 2014, and we started
Hamilton in January 2015. Those were like
the two greatest productions of my life.

JOAN MARCUS

duce your show unless you raise the money. I


will ask anyone for money. The MBA helped
with that, too, because I feel at ease discussing
numbers, but I think most people I ask for
money feel this way, too. They want to support me and theater. Im selling my passion
for a project. But theres a saying in our business: You cant make a living, but you can
make a killing. Producers dont make money
until a show is up and running. But 80 percent of shows dont work. I look at all these
shows as if theyre startups. From what I
understand, startups have the same success

Is it ever OK to
e-mail the CEO
of a company with an
idea? Or do I have to
go through the right
channels, like talking
to my manager first?
This varies from company
to company. Its certainly
a risk, regardless of how
good your idea is. And if
your idea isnt great, you
just singled yourself out as
the eager beaver with bad
ideas. Either way, you could
come off as though you are
going over your managers
head. This all boils down
to the culture of your
company. Safest bet? Ask
your boss first.

SOPHIA AMORUSO

I just took a new job


and I hate it. Help!
I think Ive made a huge
mistake. What should I do?
Give it some time! Ive
ended up loving things I
initially hated. Thats just
life. You have something to
learn even if its in a place
you hate. That being said,
start lining up options for
yourself in case things dont

Ive started

Any tips on how to get
back to my desk without
looking so sweaty?
Hmm dont sweat! You
could try Pilates or yoga,
which wont stink you up
quite as much. If you must

break a sweat, try for a


quick workout and a nice
rinse afterward, but keep
your hair out of it. If your
hair is as difficult as mine,
you cant afford to do it
twice a day. And, oh yeah,
wear some deodorant!

Should I be worried
that my boss reads

You shouldnt be worried
that your boss reads your

WHAT INFORMED, SAVVY WOMEN


NEED TO KNOW NOW

TRENDS, NEWSMAKERS, CONVERSATION STARTERS

MICHAEL CREAGH

In Donald Trumps inner circle on the


campaign trail, theres just one woman:
Hope Hicks, 27, his communications
director and the only woman who
travels full-time with the Republican
front-runner.
Hicks has played an integral role in
Trumps unprecedented rise in the 2016
election. As Trump tweets about the
controversies du jour with abandon,
delivers unscripted soliloquies at
campaign stops, and is a near-constant
presence on cable news, Hicks is
behind the scenes, juggling the moving
parts of the rapid news cycle.
In 2012, after a successful teen
modeling career and graduating from
Southern Methodist University, the
Connecticut native got her first taste of
the Trump life working on the hotel
and golf divisions of his company for
New York public relations firm Hiltzik
Strategies. The Trump Organization
brought her in-house as the director of
communications in 2014, and the
following year, she got the surprise of a
lifetime when The Donald asked her to
join his budding campaign. Here, in
her first-ever interview in her current
role, she shares what its like to work
for the unconventional candidate.

Trolls, beware: Women in Brazil are fighting back in a very public
way. A campaign by the Rio de Janeirobased nonprofit Criola, whose
mission is to promote the rights of black women, is making sure there
are real-life consequences for virtual crimes. Rather than ignore hateful
online abuse hurled at black Brazilian women on Facebook and Twitter,
Criola is blowing up such comments on billboards and, using the
perpetrators geo-location tags, installing the signs on the streets of the
offenders hometowns. That means Brazilians in cities large and small
are now being confronted with outsize versions of comments like, Your
hair looks like a pile of rusty screws or Maybe if you took a proper
bath then you wouldnt look so soiled.
We want to show the women they target that we saw the comment,
we are watching, and she is not alone, says Criola founder Jurema
Werneck. As for the online abusers, the campaign is sending the
message that they cant hide behind avatarstheir words have ramifications just as they would offline (making racist comments is a crime
punishable by jail time in Brazil). We want to [catch] the attention
of the racist and say to him that what he does online is what he does
in the real world, too, she says. He is not invisiblewhat he did is
not invisible. And, Werneck adds, if Criola can find the offenders, the

ALEXANDRIA LAFCI,

HER INSPIRATION: Its
been six years since an
earthquake devastated
Haiti, yet thousands of
people are still living in
tents. A 2015 investigation
by NPR and ProPublica
found that, despite
raising $500 million, the
American Red Cross
has only built six houses.
HER BIG IDEA: In December
2014, Alexandria Lafci,
now 26, cofounded New
Story to build houses
with total transparency
100 percent of donations
goes directly to construction, and backers receive a
video when a family moves
into their new home.
RESULTS: The nonprofit
has built 151 homes in Haiti
and is now expanding to El
Salvador and Bolivia. One
amazing unintended
outcome, Lafci says, is
seeing other ways lives are
changed. Nancy, a Haitian
woman who had wanted
to start a business for
years but worried about
the lack of security in her
tent, is now thriving as a
charcoal seller. My heart
was filled to see community members coming to
Nancys house to buy
coal, Lafci says. Best of
all, she adds, I hear stories
like that every single day.

SOUTH AFRICA

VIRGIN TERRITORY

A N EW SCHOL A RSHIP PROGR A M COMES


W ITH A CON TROV ERSI A L QUA LIFICATION:
ON LY CH A STE GIRLS N EED A PPLY
The government of South
Africas rural UThukela district is
offering young women a precious
chance to go to collegebut
theres a catch: They must be
virgins to qualify. The so-called
maiden bursaries are for 16
women who have never had
sex, and who pledge to remain
virgins throughout their education. The recipients will undergo

controversial virginity inspections this month and follow-up


scans every six months.
The districts female mayor,
Dudu Mazibuko, who devised the
scheme, says the scholarships are
intended to encourage abstinence and prevent disease, and
to enable vulnerable females to
focus on their studies. The
UThukela district has some of the

highest rates of HIV/AIDS and


unwanted pregnancy in the
country, with some 25 percent of
teenage girls impregnated.
But the move has provoked
fierce debate. Bathabile Dlamini,
South Africas female minister for
social development, has slammed
the bursaries as being steeped in
patriarchal practices that oppress
women, and the countrys
Commission for Gender Equality
launched an investigation aiming
to shut down the program.
Rather than calling time-out on
female college students having
sex, the commission wants a
time-out on such old-fashioned
thinking. Abigail Haworth

At this years Indy 500, on May 29, history will be

Among the 33 cars in the starting field will be Grace

arent complete strangers to the eventnine have

Autosports entry marks the first time that an entire
racing team, from its driver and pit crew to public
relations staff, will be made up of women. Most
people will recognize a female driver like Danica
Patrick, but they dont see what happens behind the
scenes, says Beth Paretta, 42, who cofounded
Grace Autosport with Adrian Sussman, 49, in 2015.
Theres a host of people setting up strategy, building
the car, and getting it set up for the racewe want to
shine a light on those roles, too.
Grace Autosport also wants to bring attention to

The sport needs more engineers, and we want to
use the excitement of the Indy 500 to show young
girls the many careers in racing, Paretta says.
Thats the long-term play. But theres a shorterterm play as well. One of Grace Autosports goals is
to have a female driver win the Indy 500 within a

1. THE GIRLS
by Emma Cline (Random House)

The Girls is certainly about a horrific murder


its heavily influenced by Charles Manson and
crew, after allbut its more about, well, the
girls who were seduced by a charismatic
leader, the power of attraction, and the lure of
fitting in. Written from the perspective of a
young hanger-on, retelling what happened
when shes older but not necessarily wiser,
this tale is as addictive as it is shocking.

2. MODERN LOVERS
by Emma Straub (Riverhead)

In Ditmas Park, a precious Brooklyn enclave


youd have to see to believe, a few college
besties have taken over. With a real-estate
agent, a chef, a yogi guru, and teens sneaking

sprawling drama. Told in 10 sections,
starting in 1693, Proulxs new novel follows
two barkskins (aka timbermen) and their
descendants. And the family hardships, too,
of course. Cue the movie deal.

Award-winning journalist Leve turns the lens


on herself to examine her erratic childhood.
Raised by a capricious poet mother, whose
inconsistent attention left young Leve to parent
herself, the author brings up fascinating natureversus-nurture questions and the psychological
implications of an abbreviated upbringing.

5. GREETINGS FROM
UTOPIA PARK

by Tig Notaro (Ecco)

7. IM JUST A PERSON

by Claire Hoffman (Harper)

Hoffman was an early adopter of


transcendental meditationif you can call
a 3-year-old that. The writer revisits growing
up in a meditation community and how her
mother, a devout follower of the Giggling
Guru, uprooted the family to be among other
like-minded folks. But, as Hoffman discovers,
utopia isnt quite so easy to come by.

Any comedy nerd knows about the stand-upset-gone-viral that launched Notaro to
household-name status: Just days after being
diagnosed with breast cancerfollowing her
mothers unexpected deathNotaro took to
the stage and announced the news. And made
everyone laugh like hell. Delving deeper, Im
Just a Person chronicles the tough time and
will make you laugh, or cry, or both.

BLOWOUTS

Heres my deepest, darkest beauty secret: I dont own a


blowdryer. I know, I know, thats crazy talkbut the
truth is, when it comes to certain grooming rituals, Im
just plain old lazy. (Self-tanner and/or post-shower
body lotion, false lashes, and DIY manicures also need
not apply for my minimalist regimen.) Ive had long
hair for most of my life, and the act of holding a heavy
Beauty Director
hot tool over my head is a tedious half- to full-hour
E RI N F L AH ERTY
exercise to rival a CrossFit session. Instead, I rely on
the graces of air-drying, blowout bars, and dry shampoo (shout-out to
Dove, which makes a great one). That said, the latest innovations in
achieving just-stepped-out-of-a-salon hair at home may persuade me to do
otherwise: Dyson, known heretofore as the vacuum-cleaner purveyor, has
harnessed supersonic technology and a team of 15 motor engineers to
create one of the smallest, lightest, and most powerful dryers Ive ever
seen. It will launch early this fall, and Im counting the days. This
breakthrough, combined with all the cool new potions and tools designed
to make the whole blowout process less painful, could convince even
confirmed wash-and-go girls like me to change their slothful ways.

JONES
IN HER OWN WORDS

ve always had a lot of hair, but its very fine.


Everyone got me all psyched about being pregnant,
saying that I would have this amazing, lustrous hair,
but I didnt get the gorgeous mane other mothersto-be seem to. Instead, my strands turned coarse, and
I ended up having to condition a lot more.
I dont like sitting in the hair-and-makeup chair
for very long, but I do try to be collaborative when
it comes to my characters styles. I find its helpful
for me to feel different in a role when I look differentwhether
its wardrobe or even body language. My current role as Melissa on
The Last Man on Earth is the closest Ive ever played to methe
hair, the look, the wardrobe. Sometimes I struggle with it. I think,
Am I saying that because I would say that or because Melissa
would say it that way?

Betty, on Mad Men, was different. She came from a lot of


money and had a set style that she liked. The show started in the
mid-1950s and ended in the 60s, but her lookthe expensive
tailored clothes, the bouffant, the manicured nailsdidnt really
change that much. She kept that same hair, which morphed slightly
from Grace Kelly to Jackie Onassis over time. After years of doing
the show, my hair was trained into that style! It didnt take much
for it to go into place. When I curled my hair at home, it would
bounce into that shape, and Id be like, No!
Getting your hair done every day for work sounds like a dream
come true, but all that back-combing and heat styling can be
super-damaging. In season six of Mad Men, I went from blonde to
red to black to blonde, all in four months. My hair was ready to fall
out at that point. When we were on hiatus, I cut my hair really short
and didnt do anything except condition it for the whole summer.

Jones wore a triple braid to


a Fox party in January

When I was younger, my


hair was white, and I liked
wearing it shortboy cuts and
the bowl cut with the wedge.
One of my favorites I called
The Spike; it was really short
and I would spike up the
slightly longer hairs on top
with Dep gel. I remember
going to school with The Spike,
and three weeks later, my
fourth-grade teacher, Miss Palmer, copied me. Then I had to change
my hairstyle. I was over it.
People were just more experimental with their hair when I was
growing up. I was influenced by Madonna, Blondie, and the punks, but
I never had a mohawk. One time, my mom permed my bangs so I
wouldnt have to curl them every morningthat turned out really bad.
The second half of junior high, I grew out my hair and kept it straight
and long until I moved to New York at 18.
These days, I love taking risks with my look, especially on the red
carpet. At the Fox All-Star Party earlier this year, I knew that Will Forte
and Mel Rodriguez would have half their heads shaved, because I had
been filming with themand I needed to compete. I saw this streetstyle picture of a girl with short hair on Instagraminstead of a
middle part, she had a braid in the center. Bridget Brager did my hair
that day, and it was her idea to also do the two braids on the sides of
my head and have them join in the back. If youre going to do an event
and have to talk about yourself, at least a style with some artistic
expression makes it more fun. As told to Ning Chao

Model Aamito
Lagum is

THE NEXT
BIG THINGS

Its no longer business as usual in the beauty world.


These trailblazing women are disrupting the way we
think about everything from modeling to makeup

Referring to models as walking clothes


hangers is borderline offensiveand completely out of touch. The women currently
finding success in front of the fashion worlds
cameras are so much more than good looks
and long legs. Take Ugandan beauty Aamito
Lagum: In February, a shot of her voluptuous
pout taken backstage at the Ohne Titel fall
fashion show sparked a handful of outrageous, racially charged comments and slurs
when it was posted on the Instagram
account of MAC Cosmetics. The makeup
company, along with scores of women,
jumped to Lagums defense, but the best
response was from @aamito_lagum herself,
who reposted the image with the ultracool
(and empowering) caption, My lips giving
you sleepless nightsand collected more
than 7,000 likes of support. Im glad it happened, Lagum reflects now. Maybe it will
encourage others to speak up in the future.
First discovered on Africas Next Top
Model in 2014, Lagum knows a thing or
two about the power todays models wield,
thanks to the many platforms that connect
them with fans and allow them to express
their personalities. Inspiring people has
been one of my goalsthis job now comes
with a sense of responsibility, she says.
With nearly 70 runway shows already under
her belt, the 5'11" beautywho speaks six
languages, for the recordis well on her
way to becoming the next one-name supermodel, alongside her social-media-savvy
idols, Karlie, Jourdan, and Joan. Her most
memorable show so far? Being cast to close
at Zac Posen, where Ugandan Princess
Elizabeth of Toro served as the muse for
the fall collection. Ive actually met [the
princess], and shes such a lovely lady and
really inspiring, Lagum enthuses. It was
perfect. Katie Becker

FACIALIST OF THE FUTURE

Back in the day, facials fell into two camps: the


hippie-dippie treatment with essential oils, or
the sterile, tech-y service with chemical peels and
gadgets. New York City facialist Cecilia Wong
bridges that divide with a forward-thinking
combination of Western technology and Chinese
herbal medicine that gets results.
Growing up, Wong dabbled with natural
treatments inspired by her Chinese heritage, and
later trained with celebrity facialist Joanna Vargas,
a pioneer of skin-smoothing technology like
microcurrent machines and LED light therapy. At her own space (ceciliawong
skincare.com), shes gained a reputation for incorporating the natural and the
high-tech. Eastern and Western philosophies work really well together if you
know how to blend them, she says. For example, during her signature Sculpt &
Empower facial, Wong massages in the vitamin-C-and-omega-packed Black Currant
Serum from her own line (a new cult favorite among skincare junkies) and then
follows it with a microcurrent session. The devices gentle electric charge helps
drive ingredients deeper and stimulates your muscles to contract, so your face looks
more toned afterward, she explains.
Personalization is also key: Every new client receives a bespoke facial, which may
include oxygen sprays and LED light therapy, as well as nutrition and lifestyle advice.
Theres no rule book, Wong says. Im a strong believer that there is more than one
solution to any problem. K.B.

Some stylists attribute their careers to

whether answering Periscope questions
or getting Instagram feedback, says Atkin,
who also runs the blog Mane Addicts.
The [Ouai] bottles are Instagram-worthy,
but I obviously wanted the line to perform
as well. And it does, as evidenced by
the popularity of her subscription service,
which resupplies customers with musthaves like her new hair vitamins and a

In a world where all aspects of our lives are


customizedfrom our Netflix queues down to our
coffee ordersthe mass-appeal, something for
everyone beauty line just wont cut it. Which is one
reason why makeup artist Tracy Murphy went
super-niche with Lash Star Beauty, a new collection of
products focused on her specialty: lashes. For years,
my clients called me the lash queen because I would
completely transform their look with a mascara
wand, says Murphy. Her line features two dual-ended
mascaras, eyelash curlers for four different eye shapes,
and a variety of liners, shadows, and tools that flip the script on how most women
apply cosmetics, making lashes the focus instead of a finishing touch. You know
Anastasia? Murphy asks, name-checking the undisputed queen of brows, Anastasia
Soare. I want to be that for lashes.
So what exactly is her coveted technique for getting standout fringe? Murphy
suggests applying mascara to top lashes in three separate steps: First, coat the hairs
on your inner corners by swiping the wand toward your nose; next, coax the lashes in
the center straight up; finally, fan the outer third of your lashes toward your ears.
Lots of women are intimidated by doing their lashes, says Murphy. I want my line
to prove that its almost embarrassingly easy. C.F.

HIGH-TECH
MATCHMAKER
As a computer-science student at
Georgia Tech, Candace Mitchell
struggled with a familiar frustration:
My hair was dried out and bleached,
and I couldnt find the right products. Cue lightbulb moment. With
the help of her schools startupaccelerator program, Mitchell
launched the business that would
become hair journey service
Myavana. Heres how it works:
You visit myavana.com and answer
questions about your hair texture,
the weather where you live, and your
ethnicity (the service was originally
designed to help women of color
but works for women of all backgrounds). Next, you send in strands
from different sections of your
head to be lab-analyzed for things
like moisture retention, curl pattern,
and damage level. All that data
along with proprietary intel from
the hair analyses the company
has conductedgets plugged into
an algorithm Mitchell and her
cofounder designed in order to determine each customers ideal regimen.
Two weeks after the lab results are
ready, a box with the perfect products (from any number of brands the
company works with, including Paul
Mitchell, Dove, LOral Paris, etc.)
arrives at your door. (Memberships
start at $25 a month.)
In short: This is no ordinary
subscription service.Your hair type
is as unique as your fingerprint,
says Mitchell. Our algorithm has
hundreds of thousands of possible
outcomes. Shes definitely onto
something; big beauty companies
have already approached her
about using Myavanas technology
to help improve retail experiences.
And, Youll be able to leverage your
hair profile at the salon and in-store
soon, promises Mitchell, though
she cant reveal details yet. K.B.

Mashell Tabe uses


a microneedling
device on a client

NEW-WAVE AESTHETICIAN

Beauty is a spiritual journey, says Mashell Tabe, a medical aesthetician and


energy healer who splits her time between New York City and New Mexico, while
treating the skin of overextended women like Mila Kunis and Naomi Watts. Think
about how stress triggers acne, she says. The fact that theres a connection
between skin and emotions isnt a crazy foreign concept. (Not that Tabe is averse
to out-there concepts: If clients are up for it, shell read their chakras and discuss
angels and the divine.)
Her facials, however, are firmly rooted in research-backed dermatology. At the
core of her practice is microneedling, a technique that reduces acne scars and
wrinkles, according to several published studies. During the procedure, Tabe uses a
device with one-millimeter-long needles that create nearly invisible punctures in a
clients skin. Not only does this allow for better absorption of products applied immediately afterTabe is a proponent of vitamin C and retinolsbut also, the skin reacts
as if its been injured, jacking up collagen and elastin production. Just dont expect to
find the service at a standard spa: In many states, practitioners using devices with
needles longer than a half millimeter must have medical training.
Tabe realizes that not everyone has access to her services, so shes in the
process of launching her own skincare line and downloadable guided meditations
(mashelltabe.com). The quest for beauty is not vanity, but a ritualistic form
of self-love that nourishes the soul, she says. Its a philosophy that would have
sounded fringe a decade ago, but for todays juice-amped, yoga-fied woman,
it only makes sense to do some soul-searching while getting one hell of a medicalgrade facial. K.B.

When beauty retailer Ulta asked customers


about their beauty influences, it kept
hearing the same thing: Women loved
watching makeup tutorials online, but they
were intimidated by the finished looks and
had trouble figuring out which vloggers
were legit makeup artists. To the rescue:
totally legit pro Fiona Stiles (clients include
Jessica Chastain and Gabrielle Union),
who worked with Ulta to create the new
tutorial-driven makeup line Fiona Stiles
Beauty. I love the creativity of those
ultra-perfect doll looks on YouTube, but its
unattainable in real life, Stiles says. This
collection merges trends with wearability.
To wit, you wont find glittery faux
lashes in Stiles 120-piece line. But there are
tutorials on the website, fionastilesbeauty.
com (and in some Ulta stores, on tablets).
Click on any product to cue up a collection
of how-to videos that feature the item. Or
work backward: Find a video you like, and
easily ID the products used throughout.
Rest assured, Stiles tutorials feature none
of the overdone visages that populate the
vlogosphere. I worry about women trying
to achieve that version of perfection with
their makeup, she says. I like imperfections in beauty. Jennifer Goldstein

HOLISTIC
DERMATOLOGIST

Old-school dermatology has a reputation for being


skin deep, but a new class of doctors trained
around the turn of the millennium is pushing the
profession forward with a holistic approach. My
job isnt just to treat the skin issues a patient
brings in; its to treat the entire person, explains
NYC-based dermatologist Dr. Dendy Engelman. Its
that attitude that landed her Sofia Vergara as a
patientthe actress entrusted her complexion to
Engelmans array of services in the months leading
up to her wedding last year.
The South Carolina native
who has a reputation for
supersubtle needle work
studied psychology as an
undergraduate and says shes
always been interested in the
way cosmetic treatments
improve mental health, citing
research that shows Botox can
help patients suffering from
depression. That biofeedback
aspectwhere, if you freeze a
muscle so that youre incapable
of frowning, you actually feel
happieris fascinating, she
says. She also has patients who experience physical
improvements from some procedures, like fewer
chronic headaches after Botox. As Engelman
explains, the neurotoxin is FDA-approved to treat
migraines, but for that indication, it should be
administered by a neurologist, who injects (larger)
therapeutic doses at specific trigger points. Her cosmetic technique requires a smaller amount of the
drug, but there are patients who swear that their
migraines improve afterward, she says.
In the end, as long as her patients are healthier
and happier, she says shes done her job. As my
mom, who is a therapist, would say, Its not
really how you look that matters; its how you feel
about how you look. J.G.

f the world is just like high


school and Instagram is how
we know who the popular
kids are, then Selena Gomez is
currently the coolest kid in
the cafeteria. And what worries
her is the responsibility that
comes with having 62 million
71 million, she corrects me
(72 by the time Im writing this
and definitely more by the time
youre reading this)followers.
What should she post? When?
More? Less? Or, shudder, should
she just quit forever?
Im pretty sure Instagram
hates me because I say that all
the time, she says. Im like, Put
down the phone. I just dont know how long Ill
have it, to be honest.
Deleting her account may seem like a
statement, but it would be just the latest in a
series of baller moves in her evolution. Or more
apt, revolutionone rooted in child stardom at 7
on Barney & Friends, after her mother (who
became her first manager) found a flyer for an
open casting call for the show while they were
living in Grand Prairie, Texas. (Gomezs parents,
who had her at 16, werent married. They married
other people, which is how she has two toddler
half sisters on each side.)
Gomez, 23, wears her auburn-streaked brown
hair in a messy ponytail and gold-hoop earrings
that sway as she studies a menu on the top-floor
patio of the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills.
Shes dressed in a faded Metallica T-shirt
(borrowed from her roommate, Courtney, who
lives with her in her Los Angeles home),
Vetements jeans, and her favorite Vuitton
sneakers. With barely any makeup, she could
almost pass for the 14-year-old the world first
really got to know on her second TV show,
Disneys Wizards of Waverly Place. (Before that,
she also guest-starred on Hannah Montana.)
Gomez was one of a generation of Disney
starsMiley Cyrus, Vanessa Hudgens, Demi
Lovato, et al.who each became famous and
then had to grow up and figure out, exactly, what
she was famous for.
After 10 years of Barney and Wizards, and four
Disney albums (and the spin-off specials and TV
movies associated with Wizards), Gomez was
tired of going through the motions, as she puts
it: Theres a difference between being famous
and being successful, and Ive always wanted to
be successful. Because I wasnt on a fragrance

thing or on a cover of that, people were like, Shes a mess,


look at her; shes a failure. I couldnt get in the room for
anything in film, because I was in a tabloid. And for what?
It made no sense to me.
Selena Gomez 2.0, if thats what this phase of her career
is, was brought on by a crisis driven in part by the answer
to her For what? question: the very public nature of her
relationship with a certain high-profile pop star. There was
a sense that she was better known for whom she was with
than for who she was. I would be trying to promote
something that I loved, and the entire interview would be
about my personal life, she remembers. I would leave a
room feeling defeated, feeling embarrassed, but I would
always make sure to put that smile on my face because I
wasnt going to let them get to me. I could have said, Put
me on every billboard and pimp my name out until I have
nothing else left and Im done.
Instead, in 2014, which marked the end of that threeyear-long on-and-off relationship, she rethought her whole
system. I went through a really hard breakup, and it was
awful because it was super-exposed, she says. I didnt feel
like a real person anymore. I was sick of myself. I just
needed to stop and feel everything I needed to feel I
realized all the pleasing and whatever I was doing wasnt
getting me anywhere.
She hired a new manager, parted ways with her agent,
left Disney-owned Hollywood Records for Interscope,
and signed a reported $3 million deal with Pantene.
I walked into every single one of those rooms, and not
one person helped me make those decisions, she says.
I had to not be afraid to ask dumb questions, which means
I asked a million things about every single step that I
was making.
The reboot included singing lessons, acting lessons,
and rejecting some of the songs her new label wanted
her to record, instead decamping to Mexico (My label
thought I wanted a free vacation, so that was a fun
conversation) for an intense songwriting retreat, out
of which sprang last years Revival, a powerful pop
statement that established her as a musical force in the
making with three consecutive singles hitting number
one. (Only five other female artists, among them Katy
Perry and Lady Gaga, have accomplished that feat.)
Every agent and every manager thinks they know
better, but ultimately, you get to the place where I feel like
Ive been, Gomez says. Authenticity is my life. They make
great choices, but I make the decisions.
She absolutely took charge, says John Janick, CEO of
Interscope. She and I got into bigger fights than Ive ever
gotten into with any artist Ive ever worked with, but it
was all healthy. She is so passionate about what she
wanted, sometimes she was just fighting for it so hard.
She made the decisions that she wanted to, and thats why
the album is so great. There have been opportunities to
take shortcuts that she chose not to take, because she
wanted to stand on her own two feet.

130 M A R IE C L AI R E. C OM June 2016

Just the year before, Gomez made the most un-Disney


movie she could have, the Harmony Korinedirected
dark teen picture Spring Breakers, in which she played
bikini-clad bad girl Faith. (Korine had originally thought
of her for Vanessa Hudgens role, even badder girl Candy.)
She did a cameo in last years Wall Street drama The Big
Short and has a small but crucial part in this months
comedy Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising. Gomez has also sold
a miniseries to Netflix based on the young-adult novel
Thirteen Reasons Why, with Gomez as executive producer
and Oscar-winning Spotlight director/cowriter Tom
McCarthy on board to direct a few episodes. (She hasnt
decided whether she will appear in it.) And today, shes
rehearsing to hit the road for the 43-city, 20,000-mile
Revival tourher biggest yet (and those are just the
North American dates). I finally just wanted to go for
it, she says. I wanted to do things that I knew were
going to be me. I dont want people
to look at me as someone who is just
this celebrity person.
Only now does she believe her
talent is catching up with her fame.
Shes earning it, says Rob Burnett,
who directed Gomez in the indie
comedy The Fundamentals of Caring,
which premiered at Sundance
and streams as a Netflix Original
in late June. For a kid her age to
understand that fame without
accomplishment is empty is
incredible. Shes accomplished a lot,
but it would be easy for her to fall
prey to all the frills and craziness of
fame. If youre Selena Gomez, you
could just go make tens of millions of
dollars doing what youve already
done. But the idea that she is
pushing herself so hard is the sign
that she has an artistic will.
As her best friend, Taylor Swift has had an intimate
vantage point from which to witness Gomez grow from a
polite and wide-eyed 16-year-old to this beautifully
complex and unapologetically independent woman, Swift
writes in an e-mail. Shell probably never let anyone
know how hard it was for her to get to this point in her life
and career. She never explains publicly just how many
struggles shes had to endure to become independent and
known for her own achievements.
And even as Gomez is asserting herself in ways
unthinkable even to her a few years ago, the siren call of
social media remains a sticky trap of self-regard and
self-loathing. The days of spending an hour on her phone
first thing in the morning may be gone, but she can still go
down that sinkhole of looking at another celebritys photo
and feeling, Man, I wish I worked out more, she says.
Its impossible not to sometimes feel less-than about it.

Speaking from a 23-year-old girls point of view, Im


very aware that its a false reality. Youre seeing the
best of people.
Thats why, she continues, you have to put it down.
You get tagged in things that happened years ago, and
its just throwing things in your face all the time.
Just the day before, Justin Bieber posted an old photo
of the two of them with the caption, Feels. Everybodys
entitled to feel what they want to feel, she says. Im a
very emotional person, and its complicated to get into.
Later that week, shell be watching Bieber on his
Purpose World Tour at L.A.s Staples Center, where shell
be watched by the media, which trips over itself guessing
at the status of their relationship. I have to get used to
it, she says. Just like you would if you worked with
somebody and you dated them, and then you have to go
back to work.
Since her last relationship, Gomez has been careful
about opening herself up again, preferring to keep
things casual. Ive been dating. Ive been having the
best time. But I dont trust anybody, so dating can
only be fun if I know Im going to have fun, she says.
I have to believe that one day it will just work out. I
dont make that a priority. Its not something I want
to stress about.
In our age of the overshare, potential suitors have a
preconception of who they think I am Ive had to stop
people telling me things, because they want to say so
much of their story, because thats how you can connect to
people. Ive said to them, Im so sorry, I dont think you
know me well enough to be saying that to me. You should
keep so much of who you are to yourself, meaning you
should hold on to your heart.
At rehearsals in a dark, mirrored studio in Van Nuys,
Los Angeles, Gomez transforms into a fierce warriorartist, commanding a dozen or so dancers in leotards
working through the choreography as she sings her hit
Hands to Myself in her muscular tenor. Her tour
manager sits on a nearby sofa looking at his phone as
a sound technician pipes in the music over the PA.
Listening intently to the choreographer, Gomez dutifully
strides to the taped X on the floor where she will be rising
up onto the stage from below.
While shes stoked about the tour and showing her
fans where I am at in my life, Gomez is even more
excited about the next album, for which she and her
team are already recording music: Im just really in an
inspirational place. I really feel motivated.
There are signed photographs on the wall of the
reception area of other performers who have rehearsed
here: Taylor, Katy, Britney, and, right in the middle, a
16-year-old Gomez. She stands by the photo, smiling just
like her younger self, and says, See? I havent changed
at all. Im still exactly the same.
She may look the same, but everything is different
now. Which is exactly what she wants.

of the Chicago cocktail

serious of drinkers

toshares her pro
tips on shaking,
stirring, and serving
up drinks
By HEATHER FURLOW

1. Shake em up: At Violet Hour, newcomers train for six


hours; I got blisters! Dont shake your shaker so much that
the drink turns into slush. Go slow if its got egg whites
in it and you want to emulsify. If you have lemon and want
to get the oil out of the peel, shake it hard.
2. Start with the cheap stuff: Because if you mess up,
then you dont lose as much money. Lets say youre
making a Mojitoyoud put in the mint, then simple syrup,
then citrus, and then booze. If you knock it over or get
distracted, itll always be the same flow.
3. Do-it-your-damn-self: Create flavors naturally.
You can buy a pint of blackberries, for instance,
and cook them down to make a syrup. Its going to
be cheaper, and its going to taste better.
4. Get all mixed up: If you want to have the show of
shaking the drink, pre-batch your spirits and sweetener,
and when youre ready to serve, all you have to do is
add your citrus, add your mix, and shake it up.
5. Stay cool: We tend to avoid eye contact because we
know the person is waiting. Just look up and say, Oh,
man, thisll be a second, but its going to taste so good!

Its summer, summer,


summertime, and the hot,
sticky weather outside means
you can expect glasses full
of sweet, sticky, lime-colored
Margs at every bar, BBQ,
and house party. Make your
own bash stand out with
some help from the women
behind two of the biggest
agave-distilling brands (Bertha
Gonzlez Nieves, CEO of
Tequila Casa Dragones and the
worlds first female Maestra
Tequilera, and Jenna Fagnan,
president of Tequila Avin).
Here are two cocktails thatll
make your guests scream,
Tequila! sans Margarita mix
By JEN ORTIZ

From
Gonzlez
Nieves:
MIRANDA
1 large basil leaf
oz. Contratto aperitif
1 oz. Tequila Casa
Dragones Blanco
oz. pink grapefruit juice
1 oz. La Spinetta ros wine
Muddle basil leaf with aperitif
in a mixing glass. Add tequila,
juice, and wine. Stir with ice.
Strain and serve in a chilled rocks
glass with ice. Garnish with half
of a pink grapefruit slice.

Basil complements
the roasted agave notes of
Casa Dragones, while
grapefruit brings out subtle
citrus notes.

From Fagnan:
PINK
GRAPEFRUIT
PALOMA
2 oz. Avin Reposado
2 oz. pink grapefruit juice
1 oz. fresh lime juice
1 oz. agave nectar
Splash club soda
Combine tequila, juices,
and agave in a shaker with
ice. Strain and serve over
fresh ice. Top off with
splash of soda. Garnish
with a grapefruit wedge.

Using fresh grapefruit


juice makes people think
you slaved away for
hours to prepare the
perfect cocktailsecretly
it is so easy.

PROBLEM: You dont know where to start.


SOLUTION: My ideal scenario would be a Welcome small

munch, then a starter, a main, and a dessert. And then


for drinks, you have to assume two drinks per person for
the first hour and then another drink per hour after that.

Hosting a party
isnt always as fun as
the party itself. Enter
Nicole Williams
of Made Real Vodka
(created for, as she
describes them, great
occasions to inspire,
connect, collaborate).
Who better to
troubleshoot your
next bash?

PROBLEM: Someone arrives early and youre not ready.


SOLUTION: Get too-early guests involved in the finishing

touches. Just be like, Im so glad youre here! Youre just in

Lesson No. 1: How Its Made. Whiskey


is made from the same ingredients as
beer, distilled to a higher proof, then
aged in a charred barrel. Lesson
No. 2: What to Order. If you like dry
wine, go for older whiskey. Straight
bourbon whiskey is aged at least two
years. Lesson No. 3: How to Order
It. Neat; rocks (over ice); and up
(shaken or stirred over ice, strained,
and served in a martini glass).

At the store: READ THE LABELS. Pay less attention to the year, cautions Owen.

2010 might be a great vintage in Napa and a terrible vintage somewhere else. Instead, look
to the region. Anything in Europe is considered Old World, and anything outside it, New
World. New World wines are known for being bigger, bolder, a bit sweeter, and oftentimes
made from riper fruit. Old World wines are lighter-bodied and can be lower in alcohol
content. At home: POUR IT UP, POUR IT UP. I count when Im pouring, Owen says.
Do a five- to six-second pour. A normal glass is five ounces. At a restaurant: OPPOSITES
(MOSTLY) ATTRACT. Owens number-one rule: Pairing wine works best when food and wine flavors are either
complementing or opposing each other. Wine with a little sweetness goes well with spicy food, she says. On
the other hand, you might have a buttery lobster dish that goes really well with a buttery chardonnay.

breakers all the way
to the top of the sport

her chance at a world
title slip away again

Conlogue started
surfing when she
was just 4 years old

ourtney Conlogue waited


for the waves to roll in.
The 23-year-old pro surfer
was thisclose to clinching
the World Surf League
championship title at the
Maui Pro, the final event of the season, and all she
needed was one last big wave. So she waited.
As the water calmed and the sea glassed over, it
became obvious that this just wasnt her moment.
Shed have to settle for second place.
But that was last year. Ive been born and
raised to fight and never give up, Conlogue
explains, her voice a mix of no-nonsense
professional and cool-California-girl chill. Its
just what I do. What she does is ride waves in
some of the worlds most high-profile locations
like Australias Gold Coast; Rio de Janeiro; and
Cascais, Portugalbetter than nearly every other
woman on the planet.
This month, the Santa Ana, California, native
is hitting the break at the Fiji Womens Pro, the
halfway point on the leagues Samsung Galaxy
Championship Tour. Along the way, Conlogue has
been battling not only the elements, but also 17
of the worlds top female surfers for the World
Surf League title.

Heres the thing about surfing: Its more


mind, less matter. And Conlogue has worked
on her mental game for over a decade (shes
been competing at the national level since
she was 11 years old), refining her emotions in
the water. When you execute certain things,
she says, you need to be, not numb, but calm
and in control. Surfing is expressive. Youre
performing in front of judges and an audience.
Its a dance on water.
Conlogue learned that taking it easy might
not be such a bad idea two years ago when
she suffered an acute high ankle sprain that
derailed her for five months. Im someone
who goes zoom-zoom, she says. But slowing
down is actually important for me. Its something that, with my injury, I had to learn in
order to let my body recover. Slow or not, when
she came back in 2015, she came back hard,
paddling within inches of the overall title, won
by Carissa Moore.
Its all given Conlogue some perspective on
what she wants and how shes going to get it.
I cant control my competitors, or the ocean,
she says, so how am I going to be the best
athlete? Shes confident shell find the answer:
I believe this could definitely be the year.

Oh, Colleen, youre here to butcher the babies again,


arent you? Thats how an antiabortion protester
greets Dr. Colleen McNicholas as she maneuvers
her silver SUV into the parking lot of the Planned
Parenthood clinic in St. Louis Central West End
on an unseasonably warm day in mid-February.
McNicholas pulls into a spotshe likes to park in
front of the fence nearest the protesters so patients
dont have toand heads to the entrance, carrying
two dozen bagels she brought for the clinics staff.
Once inside, an armed guard waves her through
the metal detector and a set of auto-lock doors (the
second wont open until the first one shuts). She has
just enough time to change into scrubs, shove a few
bites of a bagel into her mouth (shell munch on this
one bagel all day in lieu of a lunch break), and wash
her hands for the required three minutes before its
time for the first abortion.
By the end of her eight-hour workday, she will
have terminated 31 pregnancies.
McNicholas is one of a dwindling group of
doctors performing abortions in the Midwest,
which, along with the South, is known to pro-choice
advocates as the abortion desert. According to
the Guttmacher Institute, as of 2011, the most recent
year for which data are available, 94 percent of
counties in the Midwest had no abortion clinic to
serve the 13.2 million women of reproductive age
who live there. She works two days every three weeks
at the Planned Parenthood in St. Louisthe only
remaining abortion clinic in Missouriflies once a
month to the Wichita, Kansasbased clinic where
Dr. George Tiller practiced until he was shot dead in
2009 by an antiabortion zealot, and in June will begin
traveling to Oklahoma City to work at a newly opened
clinic. Part of the problem with being so committed
and feeling so passionate about an issue is that its
hard to say no, McNicholas, 35, says. Its hard to say,
I cant do that, because that means somebody is
going without care, and what that means is, theyre
probably going to have a baby they dont want. So
ultimately, I end up saying, I can do one more day or
I can go one more place.
When shes not crisscrossing the Midwest, shes
treating patients at her obstetrics and gynecology
practice at St. Louis Washington University School of
Medicine, where she is an attending physician and
assistant professor. She also drives two hours to
Jefferson City, Missouri, a few times a year to testify
before the state Legislature in opposition to bills
restricting access to abortions. Once a year, she goes
to Washington, D.C., with other doctors to lobby

privileges, and in the meantime, the women they currently serve


who come from as far away as Texas and Arkansaswill have to
drive farther, wait longer, and spend more money in order to get
an abortion. If that happens, it will feel like a whole lot of steps
backward, McNicholas says. I think the word for how I would feel
is deflateddisappointed, frustrated, and deflated.
AT 7:25 A.M. THE NEXT DAY, McNicholas takes a call from a patient
while she brews coffee in the kitchen of her ranch-style home on a
tree-lined street on the west side of St. Louis. When McNicholas and
her partner moved in about a year ago, they installed an alarm system
and security cameras, and met with the local police chief to let him
know what McNicholas does. Last September, an antiabortion blogger
threatened to protest at McNicholas home in order to expose the
hidden works of darkness, prompting her to send a letter warning
neighbors and asking them to report any suspicious people to the
police. And in March, when McNicholas and her partner hosted a
Hillary Clinton campaign event at their home with Planned Parenthood
president Cecile Richards, protesters picketed on the street out front.
McNicholas was raised on the South Side of Chicago in a family
that was supportive of me being whatever I wanted, she says. In
high school, most of her friends were on birth control and some had
abortions, and none of them thought of it as an Oh, my God, crisis,
she says. It wasnt until McNicholas went to medical school in rural
Kirksville, Missouri, that she realized how different her experience
was. There wasnt anywhere within miles and miles and miles
of Kirksville where someone could get an abortion if they needed
one, she says. Once McNicholas decided to pursue obstetrics and
gynecology (she liked the idea of treating overall healthy people
in a mostly preventive way), performing abortions wasnt even a
question. As a doctor, my job is not to have an opinion on abortion,
she says. My job is to care for patients.
She didnt get involved with advocacy at first. I thought doing
the procedure was advocacy enough, McNicholas says. But during
her family-planning fellowship in 2013, she testified before the
Missouri Legislature on a bill restricting access to medical abortions.
It was so eye-opening, she says. The folks testifying for the bill were
all men. I felt like if youre going to make decisions that affect half
the population, you should have input from them. But finding other
women to testify alongside her was difficult. When I first started
doing advocacy, I would think, Where are all the women who have

abortions? Why arent they standing here with me? she says. But as
time went on, I was like, Well, we dont expect the people who have
colonoscopies to come and talk to the legislature about it. She often
ends her testimony with an invitation for legislators to come spend a
day with her. I say, Do you want to meet any of these women? Do you
want to see what its like? Do you want to see what kind of impact
youre having? she says. Of course, nobody ever does.
Just before 8 a.m., a smattering of protesters stands on the sidewalk
near the parking lot entrance. An intern with Coalition for Life St. Louis,
who declined to be interviewed, wears a hot-pink vest (Planned
Parenthoods unofficial color) and is holding a clipboard next to a sign
reading, Check in herea seemingly deliberate attempt to confuse
arriving patients. Even though Planned Parenthood warns women
about the protesters when they schedule their appointments, many
patients stop or pause when greeted by a protesters friendly wave.
Others drive in as the intern yells after them, You have options! or
Just give us the opportunity to comfort you! She then scribbles down
the cars license plate number and a description of the passengers (she
wont say what the information is used for). If any patients stop, the
protesters direct them to Thrive St. Louis mobile unit parked across
the street. They tell women they can get a free pregnancy test and
ultrasound on the bus, but dont mention that such centers typically
counsel women against having an abortion.
Once patients are safely in the parking lot, theyre greeted by a
volunteer from the advocacy group NARAL Pro-Choice America, who
escorts them inside. There are 22 abortions on the schedule today.
The majority of patients in McNicholas care fit the profile of women
seeking abortions in the U.S. Nationally, more than half (58 percent)
are in their 20s, 61 percent already have one or more children, and
nearly 70 percent are economically disadvantaged.
Of the patients McNicholas will see today, one is a 24-year-old
mother of three from St. Louis whose IUDthe most effective form of
contraception availablefailed. This is a situation I tried to prevent,
she says, adding that she just started nursing school. Shes fired up
about her right to make her own decisions about having more children.
I mean, how would you feel if someone came to you, telling you, You
shouldnt do this because I believe in God? she asks. Thats like
saying, Im a vegetarian, so you cant eat meat. Another patient is a
24-year-old who drove from a small town about three hours away. She
says she was drugged and raped at her own housewarming party. I

adoption, but when that kid hunts me down one day, theyre going to
say, Why? And Id have to say, Well, youre a product of rape. Thats
nothing to put on a kid.
Whether McNicholas is performing a medical abortion, where the
patient takes one pill at the clinic and a single dose of four others
within the next 48 hours at home, or a surgical abortion, where the
pregnancy is suctioned out of the uterus, she only needs about 10
minutes with each patient. She enters the room with a big smile and a
cheerful hello, immediately trying to put patients at ease. The first
question from surgical patients is usually, Will it hurt? McNicholas
tells them she cant promise it will be painlessmost patients
experience varying levels of crampingbut she can say it will be over
quickly. The actual procedure only lasts three to five minutes. You
can handle anything for three minutes, she tells patients.
THE 40-PERSON STAFF at the Planned Parenthood in St. Louis
constantly worry that the state Legislature will find a way to shut
them down. Anytime theres some new restriction, we have to step
back and say, What is our current work flow, and how does that
need to change? Whats our current paperwork, and how does that
have to change? Whats our current training, and how does that have
to change? says Mary Kogut, president and CEO of Planned
Parenthood of the St. Louis Region and Southwest Missouri. The
clinics medical director, David Eisenberg, adds, We have spent so
much time, energy, and money defending ourselves against these
attacks. If they cant stop us from taking care of women, theyre
hoping they can bleed us dry in the process.
Feeling like they have a target on their backs is not without cause.
The state Legislature is currently trying to pass a measure to defund
Planned Parenthood, pulling nearly $380,000 in financial support.
Legislators successfully stopped the states only other abortion
providera Planned Parenthood clinic in Columbia, home to the
University of Missourifrom performing abortions last winter. The
Columbia clinic had been unable to provide abortions since 2012,
when its doctor left for a military deployment. In 2014, when Laura
McQuade took over as president and CEO of Planned Parenthood
of Kansas and mid-Missouri, one of her primary goals was to get
abortion care up and running again. She started looking for a doctor
and eventually connected with McNicholas. After a lengthy licensing,
inspection, and credentialing process, the clinic was approved to

160 M A R IE C L AI R E. C OM June 2016

start providing abortions on July 14, 2015. Within one week,


McQuade says, our schedule was full.
The very same day, however, the Center for Medical Progress
(CMP), an antiabortion organization, began releasing undercover
videos purporting to show Planned Parenthood officials discussing
donating fetal tissue from abortions to research. CMP used the
heavily edited videos to make the case that Planned Parenthood was
illegally selling fetal tissue for profit, which Planned Parenthood
denies. (CMPs director, David Daleiden, has since been indicted on
a felony charge of tampering with a governmental record and on a
misdemeanor charge related to intent to purchase human organs,
and faces up to 20 years in prison; he has petitioned the court to have
the charges dismissed. Twelve state investigations have cleared
Planned Parenthood of any wrongdoing.)
Within days, Missouris Senate formed an ad hoc committee, called
Sanctity of Life, to investigate the states Planned Parenthood clinics,
though neither participates in a fetal-tissue-donation program. The
committee applied pressure on the University of Missouri, where
McNicholas had obtained admitting privileges, and in December, the
college revoked the category of privileges McNicholas had been
granted, making it so the Columbia clinic could no longer provide
abortion care. Im horrified that Missouri has gone back to being a
one-provider state, McQuade says. We remain deeply frustrated
that we are unable to provide women the health care that they deserve
and that we have the ability to provide, but [we] are being blocked by
a hostile legislature.
They arent alone: Admitting privileges are often incredibly
difficult, if not impossible, to secure. Many hospitals refuse to grant
privileges on religious grounds (nearly one out of nine hospital beds in
the country is in a Catholic-run facility), or because they receive a
large portion of their funding from a state legislature (as is the case
for state- and university-run hospitals) and dont want to risk losing
their financial support by becoming embroiled in the politics of
abortion. Other hospitals may have requirements that all physicians
with privileges admit a certain number of patients a year, which is
an impossible quota for abortion providers to meet because the
procedures are extremely safe (Guttmacher estimates that the risk
of major complications requiring hospitalization is less than 0.05
percent). The result is few doctors with privilegesoften none in the
same town or city as a clinicso doctors like McNicholas rack up
frequent-flier miles, jetting from state to state to provide care.

We warm up for an hour with some jogging and
stretching, then do drills: high knees, butt kicks,
straight-leg running. After, we start with longer
runs, just working on conditioning. As the year
progresses, it gets more ballistic, more technical.
THE RECOVERY: We may roll out on a softball or
lacrosse ball to get all those little aches and pains.
After a long run, I go to my massage therapist,
my chiropractor, and then take an ice bath. I soak
for about 10 minutesafter the first two, you
feel numb and its just so good!
THE MENU: I work with a nutritionist and a chef
who monitor my meals. For breakfast, Ill do
oatmeal or fruit, something light. And for lunch,
maybe a salad with some type of protein on it.
Dinner is the bigger mealfish, lots of vegetables,
brown rice. In between, I snack on pistachios,
cashews, and almonds.

THE TRAINING: Five days a week, we do it


all: swim, bike, and run, and the gym. We
start with a 30- to 40-minute run (three
to five miles), then an hour-and-a-half
swim (two to three miles), a two- or threehour bike ride (37 to 56 miles), and then
hit the gym that night.
THE RECOVERY: There are days when you
can barely walk to the toilet because it hurts
so badly. Some of it you just have to deal
with. Youre sore, but its not necessarily a
bad thing. Your body is adapting.
MID-WORKOUT BITE: Any workout I do that is

For me, thats normally a Red Bull.
PUMP-UP PLAYLIST: Right before my race,
I like to listen to Taylor Swift. When Im
training in the gym, I listen to country.
EVERYDAY BEAUTY: My hair and skin get dry
very easily. I shower three times a day, so

Im not shampooing every single time


because that can dry out the hair even
more. I use conditioner more than I use
shampoo, and I apply coconut oil to my

LOVE & SEX

LETTING GO

here was so much light in Joshs death. Five


of us flew to L.A. to be with him in his final
daysfour friends and me, his girlfriend.
His mother, father, stepmother, and brothers
were there, too. He wanted his door open,
the sounds of us drifting in. We laughed,
and cried, and held each other. We waited
for Josh to wake. His eyes would flutter
open and hed smile. Hey, I know you. I like
you. One evening, we walked to the beach
through streets thick with sunshine until we
could see the line of the ocean. This is what made Josh, I thought.
We watched an enormous orange sun sink into the ocean. It hung on
the horizon for a long time, and then it was gone.
Id never been a beach person. My first love was a manic-depressive
artist, and being with him had felt like lightning ripping through a tangled forest. My previous relationships progressed in a combustible way,
the longest less than a year. At 37, I wanted to be stretched by love.
Id been looking for eight months when Josh found me. He was a
fiction author and New York University professor, and I had such a
crush on his zany OkCupid profile. We had our first date last year, in
early May, and a month later, Josh took me to a house his family had

172 M A R IE C L AI R E. C OM June 2016

on the Jersey Shore. We had such fun wading into the cold ocean,
people-watching, and lazing in bed. How simultaneously sexy and
comforting it was to be close to Josh, like nothing so much as the
beach. That blue-ocean roll and soul.
After our beach weekend, Josh said he wasnt interested in seeing
anyone else. I said I felt the same. He asked to see more of me. He
left me whimsical notes, complimented the smallest things, cooked,
made me laugh. He had a talk about everything rule. We spoke
about exes, sex, the end of his 10-year marriage. Do you think your
divorce left you damaged? I asked him.
No, hed said. I think the more youve loved, the more youre
able to love. Emotionally, Josh was the healthiest man Id been with.
Seven years before we met, Josh had been diagnosed with stage IV
melanoma and had surgery on his neck, stomach, and knee. His cancer was held in check by immunotherapy drugs. Id been diagnosed
with the liver disease primary sclerosing cholangitis at 23. Though the
prognosis is liver failure, my disease remains stable. It was a relief to
tell each other about our health conditions without the drama that
often accompanies such revelations. Symptoms punctuated our days,
but we made wonderful lives around them.
The first week in August, Josh went to Memorial Sloan Kettering
Cancer Center for scans because he was experiencing intense back

PARI DUKOVIC/TRUNK ARCHIVE

What if the love of your life only had six months to live?
Brooke Shaffner shares her heartbreaking tale of love and loss

pain. I had stayed over at his apartment,


and he left early for the appointment. When
I woke, there was a note that read, Please
help yourself to juice, a muffin, or a croque
madame from our talented, if crotchety, chef
Lorraine, and feel free to partake in a gallop
on Mr. Wiggles, our drunken Saint Bernard.
Waiting to hear his scan results, I felt
intense anxiety. Then I remembered: We are,
all of us, in every moment, dying. Having
watched my invincible father become a quadriplegic in an accident when I was a child, I
knew that the body dies. The present, and the
belief we imbue it with, is all any of us have.
The present with Joshthe world of sweetness and hilarity he created in the face of
incredible oddswas easy to choose.
Joshs scans revealed minimal changes. He
said theyd likely prescribe a different immunotherapy drug, but in the meantime, his
doctors were trying to arrange a procedure at
a cancer center in Houston that could eradicate his cancer altogether. It would involve
removing a tissue sample to extract cancerfighting T cells, growing them for four to
eight weeks, and then implanting them back
in his body. Josh, I, and everyone who loved
him stored so much hope in this procedure.
By late August, Joshs back pain had
worsened and he took a leave of absence
from NYU. We watched Friday Night Lights
in bed when he was too sick to go out. Im
going to take you on so many dates when

train to the airport, twice in our B&B room,


three times in a Buffalo park, and one final
time parked in the car outside the wedding
chapel. He cried every time. He said seven
minutes was perfect, but it was twice as long
as the other toasts and felt longer amid the
rising chorus of babies crying. I looked at
Josh and he was crying, toofor the eighth
time. I barreled through and he reassured
me the minute I sat down.
In mid-September, Josh flew to Houston to
be evaluated for the T-cell procedure. When
he cried over the phone, I feared that the
doctor had told him that he only had months
to live. But it was just that he was in pain and
needed me to overnight his medication. The
doctors had decided to perform the initial
part of the procedure while he was there.
Later, when I told Josh I had imagined
the worst, he huffed at the absurdity:
Im not going to die. Why didnt you talk
to me? His talk about everything rule
included his own death.
I need to know that you believe youre
going to live, I said. I want a life with you.
I want that, too, he said, and I believe
Im going to live a long, happy life.
After the procedure, Josh returned home
in immense pain. On September 30, he began
the first of three doses of intravenous chemotherapy, which the doctors hoped would offer
temporary relief. But it made him worse. Still,
there were such highs. The first Saturday of

AND COMFORTING IT WAS TO BE
CLOSE TO JOSH, LIKE NOTHING
SO MUCH AS THE BEACH. THAT
BLUE-OCEAN ROLL AND SOUL.
Im better, he said. Hed been very sick
before and had always recovered.
After two days of unproductive doctors
appointments, we went to a party at the
Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Fireflies rose over
the lily pads. Curled in bed the next morning,
Josh said, I love you. When I said it back, he
threw his fists in the air and cried, Yay! Ours
was not the airless love of the dying, but the
well-ventilated love of people whod found the
person they wanted to grow old with.
The next day, we flew to Buffalo for

listened to me practice my toast on the

October, I woke to Josh crying. He said hed


seen the sweater Id slept in and been hit with
a wave of gratitude for that feeling of wanting
to take care of someone, for a love that made
him larger. Theyre good tears, he said.
On October 19, Joshs abdominal and
back pain were so severe that he checked in
to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center,
where he spent three days receiving treatment. When he returned home, I slept beside
him because he said it was comforting. His
6'1" body had dropped to 130 pounds, and the
pain sometimes made him curl up in a ball.
He described it as an audible buzz. Noise hurt,
so we whispered. His painkillers made him

twitch awake every few minutes and wring his


hands, his mouth wrenched open like he was
gasping for air. His family came in shifts from
California to care for him, so he could be near
his doctors. They stayed with Josh during
the day. I went home and bawled in front of
my computer. I cried because Josh was in so
much pain and there was so little I could do,
because I was afraid of losing him and sometimes felt as if I already had. Because even his
skin hurt and we could not touch.
On October 26, Josh called, excited to
tell me that the cancer center in Houston
had grown twice the number of cancerfighting T cells needed for his procedure.
I trumpeted the news to his family and we
were all on a high, but over the next few
days, his health worsened. On October 30,
he told me he thought he was too sick for
the treatment. And then he texted: Im
sorry if it feels like Im pulling away. Im
just so confused about how to feel better.
He wanted to protect me.
Dont do that; that hurts more. Let me
be there for you, I said, and he did.
I thanked him for making me larger, for
letting me love him, for allaying my early
relationship anxieties and pulling me into
his assurance that everything would be OK.
Im sorry I was wrong about that, he said.
I told him not to lose hope. He was flying
to L.A. to start hospice care in his father and
stepmothers home, and the doctors said he
might regain the strength to have the second
part of his procedure. He told me he hadnt
given up. I want a life with you, he said.
On November 5, a day after his 43rd
birthday, he left for L.A. I flew out three
days later. Even as he was dying, Josh was
so alive. His friend Jake and I watched in
awe as he sat up in bed and danced with his
eyes closed to the Alabama Shakes Dont
Wanna Fight. The five of us knew that he
wouldnt let go until we left, so we said our
good-byes. I left November 11. On November
13, Joshs mom called to tell me he had taken
his last breath while she and his father and
stepmother held his hands.
No matter how much I had wanted to
use our final conversations to tell Josh how
grateful I was for his love, he wanted to
make sure that I wouldnt be broken by his
death, to insist that the more weve loved,
the more were able to love again. Spoon,
he had whispered when he could barely
speak. He waved me into bed and turned on
his side to let me be the big spoon.

HOROSCOPES
This month has Gemini recognizing her worth (you go, Natalie Portman!), Libra
forging her own path (keep at it, Alicia Vikander), and Capricorn putting
her faith in others (let them help, Julia Louis-Dreyfus!) By E R IC F R A NC I S C OPP OL I NO

GEMINI

(MAY 21JUNE 20)

See yourself as a valuable addition to the world.


Remember that when you enter a room, you have
a positive influence on that environment. Imagine
yourself clearing the way for the right thing to
happen. The most important thing you can do is to
be aware of who and what are around you, and the
purpose of any meeting or project. Speak up only
when you know your contribution is likely to make
a difference, which may involve talking less than
usual. Then be sure to listen and take it all in.
POWER DAY: June 12

CANCER

(JUNE 21JULY 22)

So much may be moving and developing within


you that you think its impossible to put your
emotions, needs, and desires into words. Yet if you
want to be understood and have harmony in your
relationships, working through the madness and
explaining the difficult parts will help immensely.
There will be rich rewards for doing so, including
contact, warmth, and the thing you live for: the
feeling of being home. You will discover how much
the community surrounding you really cares.
POWER DAY: June 20

L EO

POWER DAYS BASED ON PLANETARY ALIGNMENTS. ZODIAC SIGNS: GETTY IMAGES

(JULY 23AUGUST 22)

Know where you stand with everyone, especially


when it comes to money. Make sure that you
comprehend the details of any arrangement and
that you enter any agreement with a conscious
agenda. Contracts work because they outline
a mutual set of needs and intentions, and you
can only participate in a constructive way if you
know what you want and what you have to offer.
You may have to be a little less trusting, read the
fine print, and ask the tough questions.
POWER DAY: June 6

VIRGO

(AUGUST 23SEPTEMBER 22)

This may not be a psychologically comfortable


time for you, but its necessary if you want to
manifest your incredible potential. Instead of
searching for who you are, look inside. Your
solar chart is describing your becoming the
exact opposite of who you thought you were.
Capabilities and ambitions you may never have
dreamed of are available, though you will need
to work for them consistently. Transformation is a
process that occupies every hour of every day.
POWER DAY: June 22

LIBR A

(SEPTEMBER 23OCTOBER 22)

The story of your professional life right now is


about the balance between trusting in what
you are drawn to do and carrying out what you
want to achieve. Dont worry about what that
might look like to society. There is a goal calling
to you, something you need to accomplish. You
will get there through flexibility, elegance, and
sharing your grace rather than concealing it.
Bare your soul as you aspire to great things.
That alone can change everything.
POWER DAY: June 17

SCORPIO

(OCTOBER 23NOVEMBER 21)

Break out of your shell and interact with your


surroundings. If you feel you need to focus on
yourself to conserve energy, do so. Once youve
spent some time recharging, test out what
youve learned in social situations, creative
endeavors, and collaborations. Be brave and
consider what you want for yourself in the long
term. For instance, contemplate where you
might be in five years. You have perspective
to see clearly into the distance.
POWER DAY: June 10

S AG I T TAR I U S

(NOVEMBER 22DECEMBER 21)

Practice living like youre the most beloved,


wealthiest, and most successful person on the
planet. Open your heart and head, and let the
energy flow through you. See everything as
an occasion for both giving and receiving.
The principle of exchange is so strong in your
solar chart that anything is possible. That
means you can afford to be generous with your
knowledge, time, and abilities. Your current
mantra is that no goal is out of reach.
POWER DAY: June 19

CAPRICORN

(DECEMBER 22JANUARY 19)

Youre an independent, cautious person, but at


the moment, it will help if you grant yourself the
assistance and affection of others. This calls for
authentic emotional vulnerability and trust. These
may be the last things you want to experience,
yet they will be the most beneficial. People care
deeply about you, but they cant express it if you
dont allow the feelings in. Relax and absorb the
nourishment youre given. It will free you from
the past and put you in a happier place.
POWER DAY: June 3

AQUA R I U S

(JANUARY 20FEBRUARY 18)

This will be an extremely productive month,


leading to an equally abundant summer. The key
is making sure you love the work youre doing.
If you dont have the luxury of picking the projects
you like most, find the aspect of every task that
is engaging and fun, even if that lies in those
youre working with. These ties may grow into
brilliant partnerships. Keep your mind open
to the possibilities. If someone says, I have
an idea, perk up and pay attention.
POWER DAY: June 8

PISCES

(FEBRUARY 19MARCH 20)

Continue to aim high. This is one of your most


ambitious times in years. You must be the
CEO of your own life. If you can get the hang
of this now, you will gain a skill to carry you far.
The challenges include analyzing your options,
making decisions, and proceeding with firm
commitment. You must also see the financial
angle of anything you do. The opportunity
is enormous if you take charge and run your
life with a courageous spirit.
POWER DAY: June 25

ARIES

(MARCH 21APRIL 19)

You are becoming someone you never expected


to be. That is welcome news, as the adjustment
youre going through will help you identify your
place in the world. Be humble, but recognize
that only you possess this distinctive combination
of competence, talent, and creativity. What
you do is an expression of your specific gifts.
Give them freely without trying to prove anything.
Observe carefully who acknowledges you
and accepts what you give.
POWER DAY: June 29

TAURUS

(APRIL 20MAY 20)

The foundation of our education is built on


reading and writing. While you may not call
yourself a writer, take this month to appreciate
and indulge in the charm and influence of the
written word. If you have something to say,
put it on paper and share it. This holds a key
to any form of success, whether youre talking
business, friendship, or love. Reread a few of
your favorite books and you will infuse your
soul with a rare sensation of beauty.
