Maude Apatow (daughter of Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann)

When your mother is a film actor, and your father is a successful film director, you don't have to think too hard about career choices unless you're feeling very rebellious. For Maude Apatow, whose mother Leslie Mann has a number of acting credits to her name and whose father Judd directed a lot of those films, progression into the performing arts world has been as natural as breathing. She's already appeared in several movies including "Knocked Up", usually playing her real-life mother's daughter, which isn't too much of a stretch for her.

You have to have some real style and class to pull off walking around with a name like "Maude" as a young person in the 21st century, but she's doing so well she might even make the name popular again. Her classic, silky white dress in this picture is part prom night and part bed time, and she and her date should be congratulated on pairing up the flower accessories.

One of the cities featured in Booking.com’s travel trends for 2020, Urugay’s capital Montevideo is a stable and LGBT-friendly destination to visit in South America—a continent that’s seen dips in tourism of late thanks to political instability in travel destinations like Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. Travelers identified the city as a trending travel destination for anyone seeking an immersive, one-stop escape; according to the study, “over half (54 percent) of global travelers say they want to go on one long trip to a place that has all of their favorite activities and sights close together.” Montevideo’s offerings include beaches, nightlife, markets, theaters, culinary prowess, and festive Gay Pride Day celebrations in September.
