Ever notice how UK celebrities always look properly glowing on red carpets? It’s not just makeup; their actual skin looks different. Dewy, plump, lit from within. My cousin works makeup for fashion shows. She said half the models and presenters showing up already have that glow before she touches them. That’s skin boosters doing the […]
The blonde girl who always looks fabulous and doesn’t take rubbish from anyone? Yeah, her. She’s way more interesting than you’d think. Born in Munich on 30 January 1987, Sophie’s got the right pedigree. Her great-grandmother started Mustang jeans in 1932, so she has authentic money. Not reality show sugar daddy money but rich German nobility money. Sophie Hermann […]
Yeah, so Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson have called it quits. Again. But this time, those close to the Coldplay frontman believe it’s different. The word is that he’s not handling it out there so well. Five months on from their June split, and insiders claim Chris Martin is struggling without Dakota Johnson. Sources privy to inside information […]
Abbey Clancy’s Britain’s Next Top Model journey began back in 2006, when she was just 20. She was runner-up to Lianna Fowler. But she was by far the most famous person from that series. Abbey returned to the show as head judge nine years later, in 2015. She turned from a nervous contestant to casting judgment on others’ fates […]
You know what? I guess you’ve seen her on your telly lately. Tasha Ghouri is everywhere these days, and good for her, frankly. She has this way of just getting on with things that makes you think, Why can’t I be more like that? So here’s the thing. Tasha hails from a lovely little market […]
Look, I’ll be honest with you. I stayed up until 2 am last Tuesday, trawling through Amaury Guichon’s Instagram when I should have been sleeping. Giant chocolate roosters. Motorbikes made entirely of cocoa. A violin that looks more real than the one languishing in my cousin’s attic. Of course, my first thought was: “I want […]
You know how sometimes you meet someone who just changes how you see the world? It is what happened to me when I came across Jono Lancaster for the first time. No wonder, for this Yorkshire lad has Treacher Collins syndrome, and he is, trust me on this one, perhaps the most inspiring person you […]
Okay, let me tell you something about James Haggar: he’s the kind of bloke who doesn’t talk much. You know the type. James works behind the cameras, while his wife, Naga, is on TV every morning, making us all feel a little more awake. And what a job it is. Meet James Haggar – The […]
My daughter came home from school yesterday all frustrated. She’d been bickering with her mate over Daniel Radcliffe’s height all through lunch. “Mum, you know about celebrities; tell Jessica that Daniel Radcliffe isn’t that short!” Had to look it up myself, of course. Been following the lad since my kids were little, watching the Harry […]
So I’m at the coffee shop yesterday and doing my thing and this young barista girl starts gossiping about Millie Bobby Brown getting married. “She’s only 20!” the girl says to her mate. “That’s mental, innit?” I’m thinking, “Yeah, that is so young,” and then I remember my nan was married at 19, and she […]
Right, so last week I’m standing in Tesco, proper grumpy because they’d run out of my usual sandwich. I’m scanning the magazine shelf; you know how it is when you’re avoiding eye contact with everyone, and there’s this Life & Style mag with some mad story about a soap star’s wedding disaster. Bought it on […]
So I’m sitting there last Sunday, absolutely knackered, scrolling through Netflix with a cup of tea going cold. My sister calls and goes, “Have you watched that Queen Charlotte thing yet?” I hadn’t, obviously, been putting it off because I thought it was just more Bridgerton fluff. Two episodes in, and there’s this actor playing […]
