  • The singer said he wanted to "scream" and "cry" every time someone hugged him following his wins at the ceremony on Feb. 1

  • "Anyways, moral of the story, get back on that pony baby," said Jelly Roll of the incident and his fears of driving his ATV again

Jelly Rollis opening up about an injury that he sustained shortly before the2026 Grammy Awards, but chose to keep a "secret" from fans.

On Sunday, March 1, the "Save Me" singer, 41, spoke candidly in anInstagram videoabout being hesitant to ride an ATV again, as rolling his earlier this year left him with a broken collarbone.

In the clip, Jelly Roll was seen walking around the repaired ATV before sharing a photo of his X-ray, a snap of him on stage at theGrammy Awards, and the damaged vehicle before it was fixed.

"Y'all just took this thing out for the first time since I flipped it," said Jelly Roll. "I broke my collarbone. I was so scared to get back on this thing. I just knew if I didn't get back on it sooner than later, I was just going to be more and more afraid of it."

He continued, "I tell y'all what though, my brother got it fixed, dude, and he killed it. It's brand new, I figured I had totaled it.

The "Need a Favor" singer revealed that he wanted to share the accident because the congratulatory hugs he received after his Grammy wins came to his mind while riding the ATV.

"I was just thinking, I was out there running all over the Grammys with a broken collarbone," said Jelly Roll. "Every time I hugged somebody that week, I wanted to scream. I just didn't say it, but every time somebody squeezed me, dude, I thought I was gonna cry."

The star captioned his Instagram post, "I've been keeping a secret from y'all… 🤕."

Recovery from a collarbone injury can take up to 12 weeks, according to theCleveland Clinic.

NEED TO KNOW

  • The gown is to be part of a landmark exhibit of the late Queen's clothing and style

  • The exhibit, at The King's Gallery, adjacent to Buckingham Palace, from April 10, is part of the celebrations to mark what would have been Elizabeth's 100th birthday

A historic Christening robe worn by generations of royal babies, includingQueen Elizabethand most of her grandchildren, includingPrince William, is set to go on show.

The robe is to be exhibited for the first time in public as part of a major retrospective of the late Queen's clothing and fashion.

The Christening robe was created in cream silk from East London and Honiton lace made in Devon, England, 185 years ago, and was first worn by Queen Victoria's eldest child, Princess Victoria, in 1841. Elizabeth was pictured in it at her Christening when she was a month old in May 1926.

It is said to have been worn by 62 royal babies, including Prince William in 1982 and his brotherPrince Harryand the royal cousins, up toLady Louise Windsor, the eldest child ofPrince EdwardandSophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, in 2004. But it had become fragile over the years and was repaired in the 1960s until it became too delicate to be worn by subsequent royal babies.

William andKate Middleton's three children,Prince George, 12,Princess Charlotte, 10, andPrince Louis, 7, wore a replica of the historic robe at their own christening ceremonies.

Thought to be the first time it has gone on show, the robe is one of 200 items that will be unveiled for the public at the landmark exhibition this spring. The Royal Collection'sQueen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Stylebegins at the King's Gallery, adjacent to Buckingham Palace on April 10. It runs until Oct. 18, 2026. It is one of the centerpieces of the commemorations of the late monarch's life, around the time of what would have been her 100th birthday.

The gown has undergone 100 hours of painstaking preparation by expert conservators at the Royal Collection. Curator of the exhibition, Caroline de Guitaut, said in a statement on March 2, "The christening robe was the most significant garment worn by Princess Elizabeth in her infancy and is an exceptional example of British craftsmanship, something Queen Elizabeth went on to champion throughout her life."

"As the earliest piece of clothing worn by the Queen, and by so many royal babies before and after her, it holds a special place in her wardrobe. We are delighted to be able to share it with as many people as possible in this centenary year."

The Royal Collection Trust's textile conservator Cecilia Oliver made repairs of intricate holes and what the trust says were "subtle reinforcements to delicate parts of the fabric." It was handwashed carefully.

She said in a statement, "The robe has been lovingly cared for over the generations – we even found a note on its box instructing that it [should] be washed in natural spring water after use, which helps explain its remarkable condition despite such frequent use. However, after 185 years and 62 christenings, it was in need of conservation. It has been an honor and a privilege to work on such a special historic garment."

Bijou Phillips says she could be 'gone in a few days' without a kidney transplant

Actor and model Bijou Phillips has revealed that she's "hanging on by a thread" and urgently needs a kidney transplant.

"I've needed a transplant for a year," Philips toldUs Weekly in an exclusive sit-down interview, her first in a decade.

Phillips, 45, was born with underdeveloped kidneys and received her first kidney transplant at 36. In February, the actor revealed that she was back on dialysis — a treatment that Phillips emphasized is "not a cure" and puts her at an increased risk of infection.

"I could make it on dialysis for a couple years, or I could get an infection in my line tomorrow and be gone in a few days," Phillips told Us Weekly. "I'm really hopeful, [but] it's an extremely urgent situation."

Phillipsshared on Instagramon Feb. 11 that she needed help finding a kidney and shared a questionnaire for followers who were interested in becoming a donor. Nearly 1,300 people came forward saying they wanted to get tested and see if they were a match for Phillips. Of those individuals, Phillips said 50 or 60 might be a match.

She called the response "beautiful" and said it was important to use her platform to advocate for those with kidney disease. "I think it's useful to raise awareness, [to encourage] more people to donate into the ether. It's such a wild disease," she told Us Weekly.

In the past, Phillips said, her creative projects inspired her to keep going. Now, Phillips says she is fighting for her life for her daughter, Fianna. "I'm all she's got," Phillips said.

"Now I'm a single mom and things are different. I want to be here for her, and I have to be here for her. The fight is back. That had been gone for a long time," Phillips said.

The life-and-death situation motivated Phillips to turn to social media for help with the encouragement of her famous friends and family, like sister Mackenzie Phillips and longtime friends Nicky and Paris Hilton. "To put my health out there publicly was terrifying, but my friends and family got fed up with me. They took control and were like, 'We're doing this,'" Phillips said.

Phillips offered the rare peek into her private life following theconviction of her ex-husbandDanny Masterson, who was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison for two rape convictions. Phillips filed for divorce days later.

Phillips' team could not be immediately reached for comment.

Fresh starts at Gucci, Fendi and Marni set the tone at Milan Fashion Week: 5 trends and buzzwords

MILAN (AP) — It was a season of fresh starts and superstars acrossMilan Fashion Week. New creative directors shared their visions for Fendi, Gucci and Marni, whileMadonna,Kate Mossand, most unexpectedly,Mark Zuckerberglit up the runways and front rows.

APTOPIX Italy Fashion Giorgio Armani F/W 26/27

Trends for the next cold-weather season from six days of runway previews that ended Sunday include suits to accompany women on back-to-work mandates and brutalist outerwear as an investment in uncertain times, with hints of feathers, (eco) fur and animal prints to lighten up the mood.

Zuckerberg caused a minor furor when he was ushered into the Prada runway show with presidential-style security. He sat next to Prada heir Lorenzo Bertelli, but the long-rumored pairing of Prada with Meta's smart glasses was not revealed.

There was much buzz around new directions at multiple fashion houses: Gucci under Demna, Fendi under Maria Grazia Chiuri, Marni under Meryll Rogge, andGiorgio Armaniunder Silvana Armani, followingthe iconic Milanese designer's deathlast September. Louise Trotter at Bottega Veneta and Simone Bellotti at Jil Sander had sophomore outings, often trickier than debuts.

A glance at five womenswear trends and buzzwords for next season:

Layering at Prada

With just 15 models, instead of the usual 60 or more, Prada offered a master-class in layering, with models removing garments with each backstage pass.

Trenches, knit jackets and leather bombers gave way to long-cuffed men's shirts, archival house coats and dresses that frayed into underlayers like sartorial archaeology, before arriving at cotton bloomers, sheer, embroidered slip dresses and bralettes.

Miuccia Prada, who designed the collection with Raf Simons, said in notes that the collection was meant to represent "layers of lives, of feeling.'' She added backstage that it brought "minimalism and opulence together."

Prada's self-described obsession with history was underpinned by a showroom decorated with artifacts spanning centuries: 16th-century tapestries, 18th-century Venetian mirrors and paintings from the 1900s.

Suitable suiting

Back-to-work mandates are penetrating the runway, sometimes in unexpected places.

At Fendi, fur was worn over practical suiting and quarter-button collared shirts, best exemplified by front-row guest Uma Thurman.

At Jill Sander, Bellotti played with tiny, off-skew lapels contrasting with excess fabric that created volume in the back, Alice-in-Wonderland suiting that modernized the brand's minimalist aesthetic and tested the idea of whether the superfluous can be essential. Skirts had side slits that closed at the hems, while the silhouette of dresses traced a curve — detail without decoration.

Suits were in short supply at Gucci, where Demna veered dramatically from the brand's failed attempt at quiet luxury with clingy daywear and plunging crystal-encrusted evening gowns.

Fur, feathers and animal prints

Fendi's designer Chiuri embraced the brand's heritage as a furrier and leather goods maker, but with a twist: the furs were mostly upcycled, in a silent rebuff of the very noisy anti-fur demonstrators outside.

Chiuri had worked for a decade alongside the five Fendi sisters before creative director stints at Valentino and Dior.

Animal prints were glimpsed on many runways, including an eco-fur with the suggestion of a cow print at Dolce & Gabbana.

Prada featured laced-up boots fantastically covered with feathers, an antique touch that complemented beaded satin booties and pumps.

The coat game and chunky knitwear

Louise Trotter said she aimed to lighten up her second Bottega Veneta outing. She embraced Milan as her inspiration, opening with a series of architectural overcoats in sturdy blue and grays that were meant to exemplify Milan's Brutalist architecture, before an explosion of energy and color in outerwear constructed from fiberglass that shimmied kinetically with every step.

Ferragamo's mariner twist of the season resulted in overcoats with button panels that could be twisted into new architectures. They perfectly complemented laced silken dresses underneath.

Rogge's coed debut for Marni was youth-driven, a 1990s version of the 1970s, and her love of knitwear came through in chunky sweater jackets and retro-patterned pullovers. A luxurious short-haired fur coat with a cotton lining exemplified the brand's high-low materials mix. Straight midi-skirts were covered with plastic sequins or mother of pearl discs that rattled like chimes.

Softness in tailoring

Tod's demonstrated how to turn leather into the softest tailoring with a seamless declination from foulard dresses to the same silhouette constructed from leather.

Silvana Armani embraced her uncle's soft-shouldered jackets, including quilted Japanese-style jackets and colorful shearling coats. The biggest statement were the slate gray overcoats that grazed the runway with elegance.

"Working with fluidity and simplicity came naturally to me because that's how I am,'' she said after the show.

Footnotes

While the muted color palettes and focus on basics suggest a conservative response to global turbulence, overt references to war was rare. One exception was Moschino, where designer Adrian Appiolaza included a pair of references including the graphic character Mafalda on a garment screaming: "Basta," Italian for "Enough."

10 songs you didn't know were written by the Beatles

The Beatles penned hit after hit, all of which demonstrated their mastery of the songwriting form. But while they racked up classic songs for themselves beyond counting, they still found the time to write songs for other musicians.

MediaFeed

Songs you didn't know were written by the Beatles

Not everyone was aware that the song they were hearing on the radio had been written by John, Paul, George, or Ringo, especially if the song had been credited to a pseudonym. Here are some examples of songs that were recorded by other artists but dreamed up by the world's favorite Liverpudlians.

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

1. "I Wanna Be Your Man" by The Rolling Stones – 1963

Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, this song became one of The Rolling Stones' early hits. In fact, it was such a good tune that Lennon and McCartney borrowed it back so they could record their own version of it on their 1963 sophomore album, "With the Beatles."

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

2. "Come and Get It" by Badfinger – 1969

Written and produced by Paul McCartney, this song became a top 10 hit for Badfinger, a band signed to the Beatles' Apple label. The band had several big hits of their own, so they didn't necessarily need Macca to write material for them. But hey, when you're signed to the Fab Four's label, it doesn't hurt to ask if they have potential hits lying around that they're not using.

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

3. "Bad to Me" by Billy J. Kramer With the Dakotas –1963

"Bad to Me" was written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney for British pop singer Billy J. Kramer. His recording of the song topped the U.K. charts. It was covered by other artists, most notably Graham Parker, but the Beatles themselves never took a crack at it. The only known Beatle-adjacent recording of "Bad to Me" emerged in 2013 on iTunes in the form of a John Lennon demo that was part of the compilation, "The Beatles Bootleg Recordings 1963."

4. "Love of the Loved" by Cilla Black –1963

"Love of the Loved" is a song credited to John Lennon and Paul McCartney and was recorded as part of their unsuccessful audition sessions for Decca Records. While that recording was never officially released by the Beatles, pop singer Cilla Black recorded the song and got a top 40 U.K. chart hit out of it.

5. "Step Inside Love" by Cilla Black –1968

Five years after "Love of the Loved," Cilla Black's career had progressed to the point where she had her own musical television show, simply called "Cilla." For its theme, another Lennon-McCartney composition was used, "Step Inside Love." The Beatles recorded the song during sessions for their 1968 self-titled album, but it didn't see an official release until its inclusion on the "Anthology 3" compilation in 1996.

6. "A World Without Love" by Peter and Gordon –1964

"A World Without Love" was a U.K. chart-topper for the pop duo Peter and Gordon. Despite being credited to "Lennon-McCartney," it was written solely by a teenaged Paul McCartney. While it was a hit for Peter and Gordon, the Beatles never recorded it themselves as its author didn't think it was good enough for the band.

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

7. "Woman" by Peter and Gordon –1966

Perhaps because he and the pop duo Peter and Gordon had been successful with "A World Without Love," Paul McCartney wrote "Woman" under the pseudonym "Bernard Webb." He wanted to know if the song could still become a hit on its own merits rather than on the famous "Lennon-McCartney" songwriting credit. The ruse collapsed pretty quickly, and the song eventually peaked at number 14 on Billboard Hot 100.

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

8. "Goodbye" by Mary Hopkin –1969

Folk singer Mary Hopkin recorded this Lennon-McCartney song in 1969 and it quickly skyrocketed up the charts. Sadly, it could never get past the number two spot on the U.K. singles chart, as there was a song firmly lodged there. The song was another Lennon-McCartney single, "Get Back."

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

9. "Sour Milk Sea" by Jackie Lomax –1968

Written by George Harrison, this song was taped by singer Jackie Lomax, who recorded for the Beatles' Apple label. Harrison plays guitar on it, and both Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr appear on it as well. Even with all of that going for "Sour Milk Sea", it failed to meet sales expectations and is considered a disappointment. That's a shame, because the song itself is a banger that deserved to be a hit.

Image Credit: Wikipedia.

10. "Badge" by Cream –1969

Featuring Eric Clapton on guitar, Cream was a massively successful British supergroup whose members had all the talent in the world. However, the band couldn't stand each other personally, leading them to break up after two extremely tumultuous years. George Harrison co-wrote "Badge" with Clapton and it appeared on their aptly named final album, "Goodbye."
