Maya Rudolph: Comedian, mom, TV faux billionaire, and T&C’s latest cover star. In other words, a national treasure. Don’t you agree? “Something I realized about myself fairly recently is I love magic,” she tells
@presslerj . “And that kind of infinite wealth, it’s like magic. You can do anything, go anywhere. You can buy an island. Anything can happen, which I find so fun.” And buying an island is the exact kind of thing that Molly Wells, the “third-richest woman in the world,” and the character she plays on Loot, would do. In our May issue,
@princesstagram breaks down season two of the Apple TV+ show—and why she wanted Wells to actually be “likable and interesting and someone you care about.” Elsewhere in our May Beauty & Jewelry issue,
@fifival writes the definitive oral history of Ozempic: the “shot heard around the world”,
@danisteinchizz does a deep dive into the new breed of parenting gurus, James S. Murphy gives us a jock’s guide to getting into college,
@jesse.hyde investigates a big pharma murder mystery, and our annual Jewelry Awards divulge the most brilliant investments of the year (do you need turquoise in your portfolio?). Plus, an introduction to this year’s most exciting new Broadway talent (and your guide to what shows to see right now), a breakdown of the “Me Aesthetic” aka how to dress as if you have a mind of your own by
@leena_kim and
@guytrebay ’s chronicle behind closed doors of the private life of perfume. Catch our drift? At the link in bio, Maya Rudoph’s full interview with Jessica Pressler. And a look at every single one of these Ruven Afanador portraits.
