Alo Yoga founders Danny Harris and Marco DeGeorge have hired investment bank Moelis (MC.N) to advise on options that include selling a stake in the company, the sources said. No transaction structure has been agreed, and it is possible that Alo Yoga decides against any deal, said the sources, who requested anonymity because the matter is confidential. Spokespeople for Alo Yoga and Moelis declined to comment. Alo Yoga is part of Harris and DeGeorge's company Color Image Apparel, which also includes their Bella+Canvas brand. Kim Kardashian’s underwear brand Skims, which sells active and loungewear, also raised financing this year at a roughly $4 billion valuation.

☆ Jamie Foxx’s friends and family aren’t sharing his medical diagnosis. Here’s why
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-08 | by ( Lisa Respers France | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

CNN —Jamie Foxx was hospitalized weeks ago but there’s still not much publicly known. Anyone who has followed Jamie Foxx’s career closely, however, shouldn’t be surprised by that. There has been practically no information released other than his family initially asking for privacy and a post last week on Foxx’s verified social media account. Foxx and Holmes reportedly split in 2019. So the silence surrounding Foxx’s “medical complication,” to use his family’s words initially, seems in keeping with how the performer conducts himself.

After her breakout role as girl-next-door Joey Potter on “Dawson’s Creek,” Katie Holmes has gone on to play many other parts, including writer, producer, director and mom. Still, her teen-drama roots remain close to her heart. When she was starring in the off-Broadway production “The Wanderers” earlier this year, Dawson’s parents were in the audience. “Mary-Margaret Humes, who played Dawson’s mom, flew out with John Wesley Shipp, who played his dad, and they came to the play—which was so sweet and supportive,” she said. (Dawson was famously played by James Van Der Beek.)
