• If you want to
understand, on a
follicular level, the
difference between
network TV and the
streaming upstarts,
look no further than
Malin Akerman’s
hair. In Sin City
Saints, Yahoo’s next
comedy cannonball
into original fare,
Akerman plays Dusty
Halford—a fancy-
degree-having faux
NBA exec and the
anointed savior of a
newVegas franchise.
But when she first
arrives on-screen,
her slicked-back crop
like Robin Wright’s
as redesigned
by Lockheed Martin,
you can hear the
suits choking on their
matcha. “I asked
[Yahoo] about
my hair at the table
read—whether
I should wear a wig
or anything—and
they were just like,
‘Let’s go for it,’ ”
Akerman, typically
cast as the long-sexy-
hair-having type,
says while laughing.
“It would’ve been
a much bigger
discussion if this
had been a network
show.” Before
acting (you know
her from Watchmen
and HBO’s The
Comeback),Akerman
fronted an alt-rock
band called the
Petalstones—and
sometimes misses
the road: “You can
do anythingyou want.
You can get tatted
up, you can dye your
hair blue.You’re
a fucking rock star!”

Who’s this guy?!
Giannis Antetokounmpo
is six feet eleven and
still growing—and each of
his hands is the size of this
magazine. Really.
