Hello! Welcome to your daily roundup of what’s going on in pop culture.
The final celebrity Halloween costumes have sashayed onto social media and there are some noteworthy efforts: Heidi Klum, of course, went all out and was unrecognizable as Princess Fiona from “Shrek,” Kylie Jenner’s Instagram now features 6 (six!) different costumes and Beyoncé and Jay-Z both dipped into the sports world. My personal favorite was Diddy, who dressed as Pennywise from “It” dancing in a Diddy video:

1. Carly’s partying alone
Although a colleague who shall remain nameless recently told me that liking Carly Rae Jepsen is not a personality, I am still here to tell you the Canadian pop star released a new song today. “Party for One” is about making the best of a disappointing situation: “If you don’t care about me/I’ll just dance by myself/back on my beat.”
2. Searching for Elena Ferrante
The literary queen of playing hard to get gave an interview of sorts to The New York Times Magazine over email, where she declined to answer most of the questions. What results is a sort of “Frank Sinatra Has a Cold” essay, with an interesting early look at the upcoming HBO adaptation of “My Brilliant Friend.” “Sometimes the glances or grimaces intended to convey disorder simply make the actresses look confused or vacant,” writes Merve Emre. But when they get it right, she adds, “it is electrifying.”
3. Timothée Chalamet chats with Harry Styles
There is a lot to unpack in this i-D conversation between what they bill as “the hottest actor on the planet” and “music’s most charismatic pop star.” Yes, yes, they talked about eating peaches, but also about the importance of journaling, the masochism of social media and how “it’s almost a high to be vulnerable.” Cuties!
4. ‘She-Ra’ gets a reboot
“I love the original,” said Noelle Stevenson, creator of the new “She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.” “But we wanted to take what was fun about it and deepen it, and flesh it out.” This animated series on Netflix, based on the campy 1980s cartoon, has heroines of different races and body shapes, and more modest attire for She-Ra that inevitably angered some online fanboys.
5. Oprah goes door to door
With the midterm elections next week, Oprah Winfrey joined Stacey Abrams, Georgia’s Democratic candidate for governor, at a campaign event to cheers of “And you get a vote! And you get a vote! And you get a vote!” She is also accompanying Abrams knocking on voters’ doors. (Will Ferrell did the same for Abrams last week.) According to Variety, Natalie Portman and Rachel Comey are among the celebrities reaching out to voters with the group Swing Left.
