In her first interview since Milano Cortina, @lindseyvonn speaks at length about her horrifying crash, the five surgeries and paparazzi frenzies that followed, and whether this is really, truly the end of her career as a professional skier.

The three-time Olympic medalist rose to the top of the downhill standings with the 2026 winter games on the horizon—and then, nine days before the Olympics began, she crashed halfway down the slope at Crans-Montana and tore her ACL.

Everyone thought she was finished—except Vonn. She came back again. “I’m not crazy. I know what I can do and what I can’t do.”

And there she was, at the top of the slope for her opening race, dreaming of the downhill title. 13 seconds later, it was over. She crashed into a gate and her skis failed to pop off. They twisted and warped her body like a corkscrew as she hurtled down the hill. When she finally skidded to a halt, the world heard her screams. They pierced the air with such force that they were picked up by the NBC broadcast. She’d shattered her tibia, fibula, and ankle. What came next was more harrowing still.

“I don’t want people to hang on this crash and be remembered for that,” Vonn says. “What I did before the Olympics has never been done before. I was number one in the standings. No one remembers that I was winning.”

Shivon Zilis, who has featured prominently in the Musk-Altman trial so far in emails displayed as evidence and other people’s testimony, finally spoke for herself, appearing as a witness for Elon Musk on day six of the trial.

Artificial intelligence, Zilis said from the stand Wednesday, has been “the center of my life for the last 15 years.” She went on to say that the technology at the heart of this legal dispute “is going to be the most important thing humanity creates.”

As the trial barrels into the middle of its second week, a warring pair of narratives is emerging about exactly which side Zilis was on in the feud
being litigated here in court.

In one version, she was a Musk asset—first a go-between with the other cofounders, then a mole on the board after his departure, allegedly feeding him intel while he fumed from the sidelines. In another, she was Altman’s unwitting tool, her closeness to Musk giving the OpenAI CEO a back channel to plant ideas while the billionaire was distracted running Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink.

@kyleforserious is the NFL’s first-ever fashion editor—the official point person between the league and the world’s clothing brands.

It’s a job that entails arranging fashion show invites, negotiating partnerships, and more. Smith helps athletes like the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow choose the polished outfits they wear as they depart their team bus for the locker room—a camera-crammed feat known colloquially as the tunnel walk.

It takes practice: How does one find pants for a 250-pound six-foot-five linebacker whose muscles defy universal sizing? “It’s a lot of big thighs, I will say that,” Smith says, laughing.

VF’s @ejtay caught up with the high-profile clotheshorse in studio in LA’s Los Feliz. At our link in bio, Kyle Smith shares his favorite things, from Maison Margiela shoes to the balm Roger Goodell once tried to steal.

Ted Turner, the media tycoon and founder of CNN who created the 24-hour news cycle, has died at the age of 87.

As a broadcaster, Turner revolutionized television with programming including the first 24-hour news network and Turner Classic Films, a channel devoted to Hollywood classics. Cartoon Network brought sitcoms and syndicated morning cartoons to Turner’s round-the-clock broadcasting format, and TBS and TNT mixed programming including sports, with an emphasis on baseball.

Turner appeared in the pages of Vanity Fair numerous times over the course of his life, including in several editions of the magazine's New Establishment list. The January 1997 feature story "Cable Guys" chronicled Turner's rivalry with fellow media titan Rupert Murdoch.

Jane Fonda, who was married to Turner from 1991 to 2001, called him “brave, brash, and edgy” in her 2005 autobiography. Speaking to Vanity Fair in 2023, the actress, who was married three times, called Turner her “favorite” husband. In his later years, Turner was a philanthropist known for his support of the United Nations, denuclearization, and environmental causes.

“My mother always said that nothing good happens after midnight,” writes Vanity Fair’s @ejtay. “With all due respect to her, she should’ve been my date to Cartier’s Met Gala after party at the Carlyle Hotel last night, where just as the clock struck twelve, Jon Batiste saddled up to the piano at Bemelman’s Bar and began to play.

Until Batiste took the stage, Cartier’s party had been an elegant yet restrained affair. White jacketed waiters passed deviled eggs and pigs in a blanket. Guests, like Maude Apatow and Rami Malek, milled about the bar or tucked themselves into booths.

But then, Batiste. It felt like things escalated quickly: at 11:42 p.m., I saw a man in a cowboy hat enter Bemelman’s. By 12:42, cowboy hat man (turns out, he was a member of Batiste’s band) and I were in a dance circle in Renzo Mongiardino’s gallery as a saxophonist went on an epic riff.”

@joeyb_9, the Cincinnati Bengals star quarterback, has had a big few days.

Last Saturday, he attended the Kentucky Derby with his parents, where his chosen horse took second place “by a freaking nose.” On Sunday, he flew to the Miami Grand Prix before heading to New York, where he sat at The Mark Hotel waiting for his look from the label Bode to be delivered.

He attended his second Met Gala in a custom suit by Emily Adams Bode Aujla, a navy-and-black shawl-lapel suit with tasseled frogging and a Cartier panther necklace. “This one was exciting for me,” he told VF. “Emily and her team did a great job… some inspiration was pulled from American portraitists. It’s very detailed, and sick.”

“Sport and athletics is kind of performance art, in a way… our art is shown and created through our bodies and our movement,” he said, reflecting on the theme. With a toe injury that hampered much of last season, and recent changes within the Bengals’ organization, Burrow is hoping to put on a show once September rolls around.

Last Saturday, he attended the Kentucky Derby with his parents, where his chosen horse took second place “by a freaking nose.” On Sunday, he flew to the Miami Grand Prix before heading to New York, where he sat at The Mark Hotel waiting for his look from the label Bode to be delivered.

He attended his second Met Gala in a custom suit by Emily Adams Bode Aujla, a navy-and-black shawl-lapel suit with tasseled frogging and a Cartier panther necklace. “This one was exciting for me,” he told VF. “Emily and her team did a great job… some inspiration was pulled from American portraitists. It’s very detailed, and sick.”

“Sport and athletics is kind of performance art, in a way… our art is shown and created through our bodies and our movement,” he said, reflecting on the theme. With a toe injury that hampered much of last season, and recent changes within the Bengals’ organization, Burrow is hoping to put on a show once September rolls around.

Roger Goodell has become the envy of all the other sporting leagues for the way he’s been able to parcel out air and streaming rights. Amazon has Thursday Night Football. CBS and Fox have Sunday afternoons. NBC gets Sundays. Mondays belong to ESPN and ABC. Netflix is there for Christmas Day. A full 86 of the top 100 TV broadcasts in 2025 were NFL games.

Now, Goodell wants to renegotiate the NFL’s $110 billion contract, and he’s in the catbird seat.

“The media landscape is changing quickly, and it’s not because we’re changing it, it’s because that’s where the consumers are going,” Goodell tells Vanity Fair’s Lachlan Cartwright when they meet at his palatial NFL office. “People think we’re leading it. We’re actually going where the consumers are.”

It was the Saturday before the #MetGala, and @asherald was rushing between appointments, on her way to a fitting for a Thom Browne dress she would wear Monday night. But this was no ordinary look. The artist collaborated with Browne on a design based on her painting ‘Miss Everything (Unsuppressed Deliverance).’

When she was tapped for the host committee, Sherald knew she wanted to ask Browne to bring one of the dresses she’s painted to life. “I feel like I’ve always resisted a hierarchy between the two—I think fashion is already art and I think art operates on the body,” she says.

Browne translated her vision in the atelier, extending the work beyond the canvas. “The garment just becomes another site where the work can exist,” Sherald says.

@troyesivan is often one to lean in at the #MetGala, be that in a black dress by Joseph Altuzarra paired with a black leather bicep strap sourced from a New York fetish store back in 2021—a subtle nod to artist Robert Mapplethorpe to celebrate the opening of “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion”—or resurrecting an archival Prada look from 2008 for 2024’s Garden of Time-themed “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” gala. This year he is wearing Prada once more, and Mapplethorpe has again made it onto his moodboard, albeit in a deeper, more concrete way.

“Anytime I think about the Met Gala, I think about New York and think about the Met Museum in general,” he says, which led him down “a bit of a rabbit hole” that considered Mapplethorpe among a few of the city’s Downtown art scene’s characters: Fran Leibowitz, Peter Hujar, David Wojnarowicz. He landed in the New York of the 1970s and ’80s. “This ’80s New York photographer’s silhouette of the classic blue jeans, a big coat, a white shirt,” he says, which were all a nod to those decades. “I thought so much about the artists that we lost to AIDS, and what a time that must have been to be in this city and to be an artist in this city, and how impactful the work was and forever will be,” he says.

The breakout star of the 2026 awards season, @chaseinfiniti made her #MetGala debut last night. The ‘One Battle After Another’ actor has quickly risen from Hollywood ingénue to budding A-lister, attending the event as a guest of Thom Browne.

“I’m quite literally bouncing off the walls because this has been a dream of mine for so long,” she told VF ahead of the night. “It’s been something I manifest all the time, I’m so excited.”

A natural fit for the evening’s “Fashion Is Art” dress code, Infiniti says she loves the chance to treat the red carpet as a form of expression. “I love a carpet so much, because I love getting to walk while literally wearing art,” she says.

For the night, she chose a look inspired by the human form. “It’s a beautiful piece of art that does a great job of representing the body without showcasing my own—it’s artistic and tasteful.”
