Blazing a trail for @the_real_iman is standard operating procedure, but the supermodel, businesswoman, and activist’s impact still has current and future generations in a chokehold. Through three wide-ranging conversations with @keke , @preciouslee and @aurorajames —who are, in their own ways, carrying her torch—Iman unpacks what it truly means to be an icon for the ages. Keke Palmer: “Obviously, you’re an icon. I’m curious: When was it real to you? And what does it mean to you to be an icon?” Iman: “I don’t know what it really means. And you know this more than anybody else because you started in this business very young: Every time, it’s a growth spurt. So, it’s never like you get to a destination that you become an icon. And the definition continuously changes. But I’ve always kept it in my head that the minute that you start affecting and changing people’s lives by just how you live, then you’re an icon to them. I don’t need to be an icon to many. I just need to be an icon to a few.” Mic drop. From becoming a mother in the public eye to the politics of beauty and starting a podcast (our hopes are up!), visit the link in bio to read more from the actors’ conversation.

Glen Powell and Adria Arjona’s chemistry as Gary and Madison in Netflix’s new erotic thriller #HitMan is immediate. But IRL, these two hit it off like longtime besties. Yes, they talk and joke and finish each other’s sentences (and they look good doing it). And yes, it’s quite obvious these two *actually* like each other. “I think this was maybe the most nervous I’ve ever been going into a project,” Powell says. Luckily, working together was a collaborative process, in which the two actors always felt they were supporting each other. “It’s like, I have your back and you have mine,” Arjona says. At the link in bio, the twosome talk sex scenes, impostor syndrome, fame, reality TV, and more.

Yes, you’ve seen @eizagonzalez be the bombshell in ‘Baby Driver’ and ‘From Dusk Till Dawn’. But with a starring role in Netflix’s @3bodyproblem (the sprawling sci-fi series from the guys behind ‘Game of Thrones’) plus ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ (a Guy Ritchie action-comedy flick about the creation of the British special forces during WWII), González is about to show the world she’s more than just a pretty face. “I remember being [told for] so many projects, ‘She’s too pretty for the role. She’s too hot for the role,’” says González, our first InStyle Now cover star. “Then I’d just be like, ‘What is Margot Robbie? She’s the hottest, most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life!’” Over the past few years, González has fought for opportunities to show her depth and range beyond such superficial considerations. At the link in bio, she explains how.
