JOHN TRAVOLTA ASKED
TO “COME OUT!”
Rashida Jones wants more Hollywood actors
to come out of the closet—and she thinks John
Travolta should lead the way. “A movie star. Like
John Travolta?” she said in an interview with her
friend Will McCormack. “Come out! Come
on. How many masseurs have to come
forward?” Travolta is mired in sexual
harassment lawsuits from several
men, including masseurs who have
charged him with sexual battery.

GOODBYE, HELEN
GURLEY BROWN
THAT’S
VIRAL
YUP, MILEY CYRUS
GOT A ‘HAIRCUT’
Legendary Cosmopolitan editor Helen
Gurley Brown has died at 90. Brown edited
Cosmopolitan for more than 30 years,
revolutionizing the women’s magazine industry
and showing readers “how to get everything out
of life—the money, recognition, success, men,
prestige, authority, dignity—whatever she is
looking at through the glass her nose is pressed
against.” Her 1962 advice book Sex and the
Single Girl, which encouraged women to have
sex outside of marriage, became a bestseller
translated into at least 16 languages.
