Hello! Canada April 27, 2026

I’m sure I am not the only one who remembers precisely where they were and what they were doing when news of Queen Elizabeth’s death broke on Sept. 8, 2022. I was getting ready to attend Hello! Canada’s TIFF party – the first in six years – finding myself sitting on the floor in my fancy gown, feverishly editing our issue to be sure we honoured the Queen in the best way possible. Thankfully, we still have so many reasons to celebrate her legacy. April 21 heralds a major milestone: what would have been her 100th birthday. Our special centenary feature looks back on a life of extraordinary duty and humanity. In Britain, the date is being marked with royal tributes. King Charles and Queen Camilla will lead commemorations, including…

Nicky Hilton Rothschild can trace her love of fashion all the way back to childhood. “I remember being seven or eight,” she recalls, “and I would watch my mom in her closet getting ready for the night. I just loved sitting there and watching the whole process – the picking of the outfit, then the jewelry and shoes, and watching her apply makeup. I loved dressing up, loved beautiful things – I loved all of it.” The socialite-turned-designer, 42, is referring to Kathy Hilton, matriarch of the famous Hilton family and mother to Nicky, her older sister, Paris, and younger brothers, Barron and Conrad. According to Nicky, it was a “no-brainer” to include her mom in the latest campaign for her jewelry brand Theo Grace – the Made to Treasure…

As she approaches her 68th birthday, Michelle Pfeiffer is the first to admit that she didn’t expect to have such a thriving career at this age. Nor would she have undertaken such a workload if she’d known sooner that she was going to be a grandmother! As an actress who took a risk by stepping away from her career for long periods of time to focus on raising a family – daughter Claudia Rose, 33, and son John Henry, 31 – the now-empty nester is happy to find that she’s still in demand. Her leading roles in the Paramount+ drama The Madison and Apple TV’s comedy series Margo’s Got Money Troubles is proof of that. But while Michelle was ready for a jam-packed calendar, her daughter had plans of her…

Just what the doctor ordered! Noah Wyle was surrounded by his loving family as he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in his hometown of Los Angeles. “I have history up and down this street like nowhere else on Earth,” he told the audience, which included his parents, sister Alex, wife Sara and three children: Owen, 23, Auden, 20, and 10-year-old Frances. “Becoming part of that history is a true childhood dream come true.” The actor, 54, was recognized for his decades of work in television, including his breakout role in the 1990s as compassionate Dr. John Carter in the award-winning medical drama ER (for which he received five Emmy nominations over his 11-season run) and his latest turn as Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch in The Pitt…

Stage and screen star Carey Mulligan stepped into the spotlight at Windsor Castle as she received a prestigious honour from King Charles. The Oscar-nominated, London-born Maestro actress, 40, was awarded a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in recognition of her outstanding contribution to drama. Joined by her husband, musician Marcus Mumford, 39, Carey was the picture of poise for her investiture ceremony. It was a huge honour for the Promising Young Woman star, who has no formal training in her field. Turned down by several drama schools as a teen, she took matters into her own hands, asking for advice from Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes when he visited her boarding school to speak about his drama Gosford Park. Although he initially discouraged her from pursuing…

HOGGING THE SPOTLIGHT Kim Kardashian cuddles up to Tokyo’s tiniest stars Touching down in Japan’s capital on a family getaway with sister Khloé and their children, Kim Kardashian, 45, swapped sightseeing for snuggles at one of Tokyo’s famous micro-pig cafés. While rumours swirled around her romance with Formula One driver Sir Lewis Hamilton (he was in the city for a race), the reality-TV star and mom of four appeared otherwise engaged, quickly falling for some photogenic new friends – and the feeling was clearly mutual! Within moments of Kim’s arrival, a handful of tiny pigs had clambered onto her lap, nuzzling and nestling against one another in search of warmth as she captured the moment on-camera. The Mipig experience allows visitors to relax alongside the affectionate animals in a laid-back,…
