Victoria Beckham the docuseries unfolds in three parts and builds to a pivotal fashion show. Actress Eva Longoria and former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour make appearances and, naturally, so does David Beckham. In a promotional trailer, the fashion designer gets emotional while talking about her fight to prove herself. \u201cI want my kids and David to be proud of me,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s taken so long to get to this point. I\u2019m not gonna let it slip through my fingers again.\u201d<\/p>\n 3. MUSIC: The Life of a Showgirl (Oct. 3)<\/strong><\/p>\n If mass destruction ever befalls this world, you could reasonably expect the last surviving artifacts to be cockroaches, Twinkies and Taylor Swift. The singer continues her pop culture dominance with this, her 12th studio album. Exploring Swift\u2019s life as an entertainer, the record comprises 12 tracks, with Sabrina Carpenter lending vocals to the title song. The Fate of Ophelia draws on the death of Ophelia in Shakespeare\u2019s play Hamlet, and the song Elizabeth Taylor references the titular diamond-loving actress. Swift wrote and produced the album with Max Martin and Shellback \u2014 the same duo she worked with for her 2017 record, Reputation.<\/p>\n 4. BOOK: Cat on the Road to Findout (Oct. 7)<\/strong><\/p>\n This memoir from British singer-songwriter Yusuf\/Cat Stevens is \u201ca profound exploration of identity, faith, and the universal search for meaning,\u201d says an official description. Among the key moments in his life, Stevens details three near-death experiences \u2014 battling tuberculosis, almost drowning in the ocean, and slipping off a rooftop. Stevens, 77, spoke about the latter with U.K. newspaper The Sun. \u201cI already considered myself as a thinker by then and, as such, you can\u2019t help thinking that one day you won\u2019t be here,\u201d he said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s through an accident or illness or by dying in your sleep, it\u2019s all one thing. You leave this world.\u201d<\/p>\n 5. CELEBRATION: National Cinnamon Roll Day (Oct. 4)<\/strong><\/p>\n Let\u2019s take a moment to appreciate cinnamon rolls in all their glory. Delicately spiced flavouring, melt-in-your-mouth dough, generously drizzled icing \u2014 it\u2019s no wonder that the Swedes and Finns created this day. Cinnamon rolls fit nicely in the Swedish tradition of fika, a daily coffee break with pastries and time to recharge among friends. But if you need an extra nudge to indulge in the treat, focus on its health benefits. Yes, there are a few. Cinnamon is packed with antioxidants, has potential anti-inflammatory properties, and can help protect against heart disease, among other things. The gooey dough and icing? Well, they\u2019re just packed with vitamin yum.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source ca.news.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1.
