KJ Apa Posts Shirtless Photo “High Up in Vancouver”

1. Gym Sessions

Tran stays active by hitting the gym and spending time in nature. She swears by Kate Somerville Hydrakate Illuminating Sunscreen SPF 50+ to keep her safe from the sun. "You can layer it on top of, or under makeup, and it kind of gives you a glow as well as protection from the sun," she told E! News.

2. Yes, That’s Her Hair

Tran feels strongly about transparency on social media. “Transparency on social media is so important, because I don’t want any fake beauty standards because of me,” she told Glamour. “Growing up that was tough too, seeing all these people and being like, “Why don’t I look like them?” It’s always important to be transparent about things. And with my hair, people aren’t exposed to a lot of South East Asian women and they don’t know that oftentimes we do have really long lush hair.”

3. Cosmetic Work

Tran is open about having cosmetic work done, telling fans she only just got lip fillers. “I’ve always wanted to get a little bit of lip filler, I’ve just never had the chance to,” she said in a TikTok video. “For me, I just really wanted to enhance the natural beauty in my face that I already have. I don’t want to look super done up. I’m really loving how they look so far. They will go down. They do hurt a little bit. This is all of my own hair, believe it or not. I need to get it cut but I’m gonna wait a couple weeks.”

4. The Bachelor Wardrobe

Tran says she regrets some of her wardrobe choices on The Bachelor. “There was a date where we were told it was going to be athletic, so I put on a tennis skirt because I thought we were going to play tennis,” she told E! News. “We were doing push-ups in the mud instead. So I regret wearing a tennis skirt!”

5. Asian Role Model

Tran is proud to be a role model. "I feel so so grateful and so honored to be the first Asian bachelorette in this franchise," she said. "Growing up, I've always wanted to see Asian representation on TV. And I feel like it was really sparse. Any time Asians were in the media, it was to fill a supporting character role, to fulfill some sort of stereotype, and I felt really boxed in by that because I was like, 'I don't see myself on screen. I don't see myself as a main character.'"

1. Dealing With Shyness

Anderson credits acting with helping her to get over crippling shyness and anxiety as a child. “I was terrifyingly shy as a child to the point where my younger sister would ask questions for me,” she says. “I would actually tap her on the shoulder and get her to ask my questions for me. I was very, very nervous about talking to people in general. So for me, acting started at a young age. My parents put us in a local music festival. We did poetry, monologues, and Shakespeare from the time I was around ten. And I found that there was a freedom I experienced with acting and using someone else’s words that I hadn’t felt before. I found that it was liberating for me and it encouraged me to help me come out of my shell and take on different roles.”

2. Outdoorsy Canadian

Anderson loves the outdoors, having grown up on Vancouver Island. “It’s an incredibly idyllic place to grow up,” she says. “I grew up on a farm. It was a beautiful way to grow up. Then I moved to Toronto, and it was a totally different world. Yeah, I miss it. I definitely took it for granted and wish I would have explored more and everything, but that’s the beauty of being able to go home is that it’s there, and you can always go back and take it in. Yeah, it’s a remarkable place. It’s stunning, and the people are kind. There’s just beauty at every turn.”

3. Hawaiian Lifestyle

Anderson takes full advantage of the gorgeous Hawaiian landscape and lifestyle. “We’re both getting into surfing here, so I think we’re both trying to figure it out,” she says. “It’s a big shift from Toronto, but we’re making the most out of it. Hiking, surfing, I think we maybe might take a sailing class here or there. But, yeah, just trying to embrace it. The water is so beautiful, and the surfing is unreal. We went to the North Shore last year for the surf competitions and watched these surfers from all over the world, and lots from Hawaii just go on these waves. You have to have just an insane amount of respect for them. It’s a pretty wild place to see.”

Anderson would love the chance to do her own stunts. “I’m like a daredevil — well, I say that but I haven’t done a lot of crazy things,” she says. “But the thing is they won’t let us. I want to do the skydiving and all that stuff, but they won’t let [me]. I’ll have to do it behind their backs, secretly, maybe.”

5. Hallmark Christmas Star

Anderson is also a big Hallmark Christmas star, and watches the movies every year. “So I’m in my PJs with a cup of coffee, and it’s a morning thing,” she says. “My mother-in-law and my sister-in-law are huge, huge Hallmark fans and so they’ve always sort of recorded it from the night before, and then we wake up in the morning, and we’ll watch a Hallmark movie. We’re all kind of settling down and have had our breakfasts and are just sort of mellowing out on a Sunday or something and watching it. It’s sort of that kind of cozy vibe.”

1. Beach Lover

Thuy loves the beach, calling it her happy place. “High levels of minerals such as magnesium, iodine and potassium are found in sea water, all of which help fight off infection, assist the body in healing and detoxifying and provide therapeutic effects,” says UPMC Health. “The health benefits of ocean air also detoxify the body by filling your lungs with negatively charged ions that boost your immune system. Swimming in sea water also unclogs pores in the skin and allows for the expulsion of toxins from the body. Another benefit of sea water includes enhanced circulation. Sea water restores essential minerals that have been depleted by poor diet, stress and environmental toxins.”

2. Pizza and Salad

A typical meal for Thuy is pizza with a big side salad. “Pile the vegetable toppings high, or serve along with a salad, and your pizza meal is incredibly balanced,” says nutritionist Dana Angelo White, MS, RD, ATC. “Lean meats like chicken and ground turkey are welcomed additions. Toppings can also be placed atop a cooked pizza – that is the best time to pile on fresh herbs, a drizzle of hot honey or some lightly dressed greens.”

3. Representing Asian Actors

Thuy is proud to act as a role model for Asian people on screen. “Part of the reason I chose acting as my craft was because there was such a huge lack of diversity on TV and cinema in my hometown of Montreal, Quebec,” she says. “To this day, the industry there still lags behind in terms of representation, and that’s something I have always wanted to defy. Hopefully, I can do my part so young people of color in Quebec can grow up feeling like they matter – that they’re seen and have a right to exist with all their colors, quirks, and weirdness. It also just makes me mad that Asian Americans are largely ignored in popular media. This has got to change! Acting has given me my voice, so I am deeply grateful that I can live in a way that satisfies both my social activist and artistic sides.”

4. LGBTQ Role Model

Thuy says she is honored to give marginalized communities exposure. “I’m moved by the support and love from Black Lightning fans in the LGBTQ community,” she says. “They are my favorite people in the world, and I want to give them so much love! I’m super proud and honored to play Grace Choi and to do my part to give them voice and visibility, especially young LGBTQ women of color. I understand how identifying as bisexual is still confusing for society, and that some people don’t think it’s a legit thing. But it is! I remember years ago reading an article arguing that we all fall somewhere on the sexual orientation spectrum. It’s important to me that I am neither straight nor a lesbian; I am bisexual, and that is its own thing. I’ve loved hearing from fans how much it’s meant to them to hear that proudly and unequivocally spoken.”

5. Fresh Fruit

Thuy loves snacking on fresh fruit, including pineapple, papaya, and watermelon. “Pineapple is the only food known to contain bromelain, an enzyme that helps your skin and tissues heal,” says Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “Bromelain appears to produce substances that combat in pain and swelling. If you have achy joints from osteoarthritis, try adding pineapple into your diet, but don’t stop taking your medications or change your dose without talking to your doctor.”

Mexican TV star Tabata Jalil is enjoying a luxurious getaway at the Unico Hotel Riviera Maya resort in sunny Mexico. Jalil, 44, shared vacation pictures of herself on social media, posing in a green bikini against a background of beautiful blue skies. “Dance in the air and travel in the sky, sun kisses ✨,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jalil stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. Healthy Whole Foods

Jalil starts the day with a glass of water and a fruit smoothie, before enjoying a healthy breakfast of scrambled eggs with tortillas. “I never drink soda, I always have lunch with water,” she says. “I prepare myself a vegetable soup with chicken broth, a roasted breast with rice and some tortillas, sometimes guacamole.”

2. Protein Snacks

Jalil’s co-to snack is usually ham and turkey with a side of olives, which are full of beneficial monounsaturated fat (ie the kind of fat you want for good health, along with polyunsaturated fat). “Fat isn’t the enemy,” says Devon Peart, RD, MHSc, BASc. “Some types of fat, like the fat in olives and olive oil, are actually heart healthy. Olives do what you want a snack to do: They’re good for your health and keep hunger at bay until your next meal."

3. Hiking In Nature

Jalil calls herself a nature lover, and enjoys nothing more than hiking in the great outdoors. “Exercising in nature leads to greater health benefits than performing the same activity indoors,” says the National Parks Service. “Individuals are more likely to repeat being physically active when the exercise is performed in a natural environment. Communities that are closer to nature are more likely to have stronger ties with their community members.”

4. Sunshine Lover

Jalil loves getting moderate sun exposure for her vitamin D, which is crucial for good health and happiness. “Getting some sun may also shake off the wintertime blues: Research suggests that light hitting your skin, not just your eyes, helps reverse seasonal affective disorder (SAD),” say the experts at Harvard Health. “Moreover, being outside gets us golfing, gardening, and engaging in other types of physical activity.”

5. Skating Queen

Jalil loves skating with her friends. “Since the wheels on rollerblades are aligned in a sort of ‘balance beam’ formation, you need to recruit your core and other stabilizer muscles to keep you upright,” says Marissa Miller, an ACE-certified personal trainer. “I recommend that clients establish an affinity for a certain physical activity before paying any attention to the number of calories burned. If you're sweating and breathing heavily, you'll be getting in some movement that's super beneficial for your cardiovascular, muscular and psychological fitness.”
