“I actually feel stronger and better than I have in a really long time,” Hart told PEOPLE atSteven Tyler’s 7th Annual Jam for JanieGrammyviewing party on Feb. 1, an event benefitting the rocker’sJanie’s Fund, which supports neglected and abused girls.

“I just wanted to feel better. It had nothing to do with losing weight,” she said. “I really didn't think I could lose weight anymore, being in midlife and perimenopause and all those things, I was like, ‘Can I really lose weight? I don't think I can.’”

Her approach started with small changes that made a big impact.

“I haven’t had a drink in over a year,” she said. “I just don't even enjoy drinking. So why bother? So I cut these things out of my life, and I started to feel better.”

She added that cutting out both alcohol and sugar played a key role in improving her health.

“In doing that, I lost a lot of weight and kind of feel great,” she added.

Florida center Olivier Rioux, the tallest college basketball player ever, enters transfer portal

The tallest basketball player in NCAA history is looking for a new team in the offseason. Florida center Olivier Rioux is entering the transfer portal after a middling sophomore season with the Gators.

Rioux, 20, confirmed the news on Instagram, thanking the team and fans for their support.

Rioux is making the move after seeing limited time in just 11 games as a sophomore. He averaged 0.6 points and 0.5 rebounds in just 1.5 minutes per game.

Rioux originally joined Florida as a preferred walk-on during the 2024-25 season. It wound up being a red-shirt year for the center, however, and he did not appear in a game.

His second season at Florida didn’t result in many significant moments, but he did break a record the instant he stepped on the court. During a November game against North Florida, Rioux became the tallest college basketball player to see action in a game, as he tallied two minutes of play during the contest. The 7-foot-9 center did not record any stats in the game, however.

He was used in a reverse/mop-up role the rest of the way, seeing one or two minutes sparingly with Florida throughout the season. His best performance came in a 114-55 blowout win over Prairie View A&M, when he scored two points and recorded two rebounds and an assist in two minutes of play.

Rioux does have a history of strong play prior to joining Florida. He’s played prominent roles for Canada’s FIBA teams as an amateur and has two bronze medals for his efforts there.

Taylor Swift drops 'Elizabeth Taylor' music video — but doesn’t appear herself

Taylor Swift dropped a surprise music video for her song "Elizabeth Taylor," but is missing from the video herself.

Key Points

• The music video is a supercut of red carpet footage and iconic movies Taylor starred in throughout her career.

• Swift said that she told the late actress' estate that she was writing a song about her, and "they were lovely about it."
  

Taylor Swift's latest music video may be missing one Taylor but is packed with another.

On March 31, the 14-time Grammy winner dropped the music video for her song "Elizabeth Taylor," the third from herThe Life of a Showgirlalbum. The video is a gorgeous montage of archival red carpet footage of Elizabeth Taylor and snippets from some of her most famous roles includingCat on a Hot Tin RoofandCleopatra.

Film buffs and fans of the screen siren will also recognize moments fromFather of the Bride,A Place in the Sun,Giant,Suddenly, Last Summer,Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, andJulia Misbehaves. Close-ups of her violet eyes and stunning diamond jewelry are sprinkled throughout the clip as well.

The montage of Taylor's movies and red carpet b-roll footage fits in with the lyrics. For example, "All my white diamonds and lovers are forever," zooms into a massive diamond ring, while "In the papers, on the screen and in their minds," cuts to Taylor on a Hollywood date night.

Swift's song plays over the video; however, Swift is nowhere to be seen. Her most recent music videos for"Opalite"and"The Fate of Ophelia"from her albumThe Life of a Showgirlwere much more involved with set designs and choreography.

The supercut focuses mainly on the actress, who was married eight times to seven different men (she wed and divorcedRichard Burtontwice) and died in 2011 at the age of 79.

At the end of the music video, Swift thanks the House of Taylor & Elizabeth Taylor Trust, along with the Todd family and the Wilding family. Taylor was married to Mike Todd and Michael Wilding.

In October, Swift said that she contacted the estate of Taylor to let them know she was writing a song about the two-time Oscar winner, as she lets "real people" know if they're about the be name-dropped in her music. "And if it's Elizabeth Taylor, we go to their family and her estate and let them know and they were lovely about it."

This isn't the first time Swift mentioned Taylor in her songs. On "...Ready For It?," the opening track to her 2017 albumReputation, Swift sings about Taylor and Burton's relationship. "And he can be my jailer, Burton to this Taylor / Every love I've known in comparison is a failure," she says.

Taylor's sonChristopher Wilding told PEOPLE in October 2025that he thinks the singer and his late mother "seem like kindred spirits." "They are both the very embodiment of female empowerment. The way [Swift] has deftly captured the similarities and parallel tracks in their careers and personal lives is delightful."

The "Elizabeth Taylor" music video is available to stream on Spotify with a premium subscription and Apple Music.
