Pamela Anderson is finally enjoying the spotlight she deserves. She headlines The Last Showgirl, hitting cinemas on February 20, and co-star Jamie Lee Curtis can’t stop praising her (page 32).

We take a look back at her life in pictures and some of her proudest moments (page 40). Bridget Jones is back in cinemas and Mad About the Boy leading man Leo Woodall is all loved-up on and off the screen.

In a recent interview with Elle magazine, Chicken Shop Date host Amelia Dimoldenberg outlined what she looks for in a man. “Someone who is emotionally available,” the YouTube sensation said. “Someone that can make me laugh, and someone that laughs at my jokes as well.” It seems she has finally found someone who fits the bill. According to the Daily Mail, the 31-year-old Brit is dating Adam Faze. The 27-year-old film producer is the ex of Olivia Rodrigo, and things might not have ended on good terms since some of the singer’s most scathing hits, like ‘Bloodsucker’, are believed to have been inspired by him. As a result, some of Dimoldenberg’s fans are concerned for her, while others are upset she might have given up her chance for true love…

Isla Fisher has gone on the record to discuss her divorce from actor and comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, calling their 2023 break-up the “most difficult thing I’ve been through”. “I’ve learnt so much about myself in the process,” the 49-year-old Aussie star told British newspaper The Sunday Times. “I never imagined my family being separated but we are committed and loving parents.” The former couple tied the knot during an intimate ceremony in Paris in 2010, after dating for nine years. They share three children, daughters Olive, 17, and Elula, 14, and 9-year-old son Montgomery. “Kids are the most important thing and you want them to really feel safe and loved,” the Wedding Crashers actress said. “We are building a new, healthy version of what our family looks like and…

While he has seemed more than a little lost in the five years since stepping down from royal duties, the Duke of Sussex was back in the spotlight where he loves it the most as he stepped onto the stage in Vancouver on February 8 to open the 2025 Invictus Games. Just over 10 years since he launched the international Olympic-style sporting event for wounded, injured and sick military personnel and veterans in London, it clearly remains Prince Harry’s proudest achievement. “The Games were born more than a decade ago from a promise that I made to myself – a promise to uphold my obligation, my sacred obligation after my own decade and privilege of military service – to do whatever I could to help my fellow brothers and sisters…

Accepting her Golden Globe award for Best Actress in a Musical/Comedy for her comeback role in body horror film The Substance, Demi Moore reflected on her career. “I’ve been acting for 45 years, and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything as an actor,” she said, recalling how three decades earlier a producer had told her she was a “popcorn actress” that would never be critically acclaimed. “That corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it. Maybe I was complete.” After reading the script for The Substance, she said, “The universe told me that, ‘You’re not done.’” “Being a mother felt natural” Having been nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for the role, Moore is hitting her…

Emma Mackenzie was sick of washing her daughter Chloe’s hair. There was the crying when the shampoo went in her eyes and then the screaming when she tried to brush it afterwards. “She had normal, everyday hair and I thought, ‘It shouldn’t be this hard,’” Emma tells WHO. It was after this thought one day in 2020 that an idea formed. The mum-of-two from Brisbane had just been made redundant from her job in the cosmetics industry and it suddenly dawned on her how strange it was that within this multibillion-dollar industry there were no products aimed specifically at kids. “There’s baby stuff and tweens and teens stuff but age 2 to 12 was like this forgotten demographic,” Emma says. “They have a very unique lifestyle with lots of outside…

Have a friend begging you to join their Sunday morning run club? Does marathon season see your Instagram feed flooded with people from your old high school posing with medals? If you answered yes to either of these, we can’t say we’re surprised – it seems everyone is taking up running. Last year’s Sydney Marathon beat the record for the largest marathon held in Australia with 25,000 participants. Look to TikTok and there are more than 87.7 million dedicated videos on marathons. “Running has undergone a rebrand in recent years, thanks to the rise of social media and the popularity of athleisure wear,” says Nat Grosvenor, CEO of Bodyfit Group. “Platforms like TikTok and Instagram have made running look stylish and aspirational, particularly among Gen Z.” While this is enough…

Sam Kerr said she is “focused on getting back on to the pitch” after being found not guilty of one charge of racially aggravated harassment in a UK court on February 11. The jury deliberated for just over four hours following the six-day trial before delivering their verdict, after the soccer star called a police officer “f--king stupid and white” in January 2023. “I can finally put this challenging period behind me,” the 31-year-old said in a statement. “While I apologise for expressing myself poorly on what was a traumatic evening, I have always maintained that I did not intend to insult or harm anyone.” The verdict brings an end to a two-year ordeal. After a night out in London with partner Kristie Mewis, the pair kicked the back window…

Brendan Fraser was front and centre at New York Fashion Week – but he wasn’t the star of the show. Instead, the Oscar winner was watching his 20-year-old son, Holden, walk the runway for Todd Snyder’s Fall 2025 show. “I said a quick hello [backstage],” Fraser told Women’s Wear Daily. “It was really hard to find him because he’s in a room of exceedingly handsome guys.” Fraser, 56, who was seated next to Aaron Tveit, Tramell Tillman and Tom Francis, was seen filming his son’s walk and offering moral support. Holden, who is also a student, made his runway debut in 2023 for Hermès’ fall menswear collection. Fraser previously took Holden and his other son, Griffin, 22, to the 2023 Oscars when he won for The Whale.…

Citing irreconcilable differences and listing their date of separation as December 27, 2024, Jessica Alba, 43, officially filed for divorce from husband Cash Warren, 46, on February 7. The actress confirmed the split on Instagram on January 16, posting, “It’s now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals.” Married to film producer Warren since 2008, Alba filed for joint custody of their three kids. Dividing up assets could prove trickier, with both still associated with her successful The Honest Company. “She is worth at least twice what he is,” a source told Life & Style magazine. “Figuring out what is a fair way to divvy things up is bound to get messy, especially with lawyers involved.”…

The biggest sporting event in America took place in New Orleans last week, but the Super Bowl’s celebrity fans and politically charged half-time show almost stole the spotlight. The Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22, ending Travis Kelce’s team’s dream of winning the Super Bowl for the third year running. Die-hard Eagles fan Bradley Cooper was at the Caesars Superdome to cheer his players to victory, but it was a disappointing night for Taylor Swift and Paul Rudd’s Kansas team. As usual, the half-time entertainment commanded just as much attention as the sporting action on the field. Kendrick Lamar, fresh from his five Grammy wins, took to the stage and made history as the first solo hip-hop artist to headline the annual event. His 2000s-esque Celine flared jeans…

Before being cast in her career-defining role as uptight romantic Charlotte York on Sex and the City in 1997, Kristin Davis had considered opening a yoga studio after working sporadically as an actress in daytime soaps and scoring guest spots on series like ER and The Larry Sanders Show. That alternate career path went out the window, though, when she landed the role of conniving heiress Brooke Armstrong in night-time soap Melrose Place in 1995, but stardom came with its own downside. While she got along with the cast, including Heather Locklear, she recalled in an interview with People magazine that “there was a general vibe on the set though, that was difficult, about the thinness situation”. Soon after starting, she was approached by co-star Thomas Calabro. “He’s like, ‘Kristin,…

Upon graduating from ArtsEd School of Acting in Chiswick in 2019, Leo Woodall had scraped together a few small roles – appearing in one episode of UK drama Holby City and two episodes of TV series Vampire Academy – when he got his big break, playing cocky Essex lad Jack on the Sicily-set second season of The White Lotus. “It shouldn’t really have happened for me at that point,” Woodall told The Guardian of being cast as the West Ham fan with a Cowabunga neck tattoo and a secret. “White Lotus is a star-studded show, and I was not a star …I was lucky that [creator] Mike White doesn’t give a f--k about stardom. I did a tape, I did it well, he liked it.” Before long, Woodall would be…

ARIES MAR. 20–APR. 18 This week, clarity comes to those who are willing to be bold. Eventually, you have to evaluate what you want versus what the people around you want – and then decide if you’re going to put yourself first or second. So what’s it to be under the February Full Moon? Tip: there are often no prizes for selflessness! CANCER JUN. 21–JUL. 21 Love yourself first and your relationships will grow stronger, too.

TEAM BRAWN THE SOFTIE: NASH “Big blokes do cry. We are very emotional, but we are very strong inside. That’s why I want to just go out there and show there are no limits,” says the salesman with a sneaky side. “I’m going to be very hard to read … telling you what you want to hear.” THE OLYMPIAN: MORGAN Don’t mess with Morgan. As an Olympic sprinter, being competitive is part of her nature. Usually, the two-time Olympian is vying for a gold medal, but this time, she wants the prize money to pay for her wedding. THE INFLUENCER: KATE Don’t judge this book by its cover. She might be a beauty, but this influencer, DJ and dancer is full of brawn. “Look at what I’m wearing on the…

When was the last time you stayed up late? Every night. I’m a comedian and a dad. Night-time is my personal revenge on responsibility and the concept of bedtime. I mostly spend it staring at snacks in the cupboard and scrolling through TV shows without watching anything. What was your last TV obsession? What are you binge-watching? Mo Season 2. Hilarious and heartwarming show by a brilliant comedian. I met Mo [Amer] doing my first ever proper stand-up gig, so watching his show makes me feel strangely proud, even though I had nothing to do with the show. When was the last time you declared, “Never again!”? I bought a three-pack of protein balls and told myself they’d last a week. Ate all three before I got out of the…

The Academy Awards are creeping up fast, but before Hollywood’s night of nights, the Critics Choice Awards, held in Santa Monica on February 7, gave an idea of what and who will take the top gongs on March 2 – and also provided one blindside. In addition, the event showcased a Hollywood love story that’s overcome so much recently. Adam Brody and Leighton Meester were both awash with emotion when he accepted the Best Actor in a Comedy Series trophy for his role in Nobody Wants This.After losing their Pacific Palisades home in the devastating wildfires last month, his acceptance speech was all the more poignant. “My darling, darling, darling wife, Leighton, thank you,” he began. “Thank you for sharing this life with me, and this journey with me. Thank…

The couple’s celebrity pals were quick to share their congratulations over social media. “Oh my! This is the absolute best. Congratulations you guys and welcome beautiful Mabel,” wrote Rebecca Gibney. Mandy Moore posted, “Mabel!!!!!! Congrats, sweet family!!!”…

In legal papers filed on February 3, a lawyer for Jodie Turner-Smith accused her client’s former husband, Joshua Jackson, of refusing to allow her custodial time with their daughter, Juno, 4, while she was filming in London. The papers also allege Jackson had paid “$0 in guideline child/or spousal support”, adding, “Even though, he, at the onset of this case, hired two law firms to represent him on custody issues, seeking full legal custody of Juno.” Turner-Smith, 38, initially took legal action on December 23, filing documents requesting that Jackson, 46, who lost his home during the LA fires, pay her $13,600 per month in retroactive child support backdated to their October 2023 split, plus $45,500 per month of retroactive spousal support and $398,000 in legal fees. “During our marriage,…

For 10 years, the tight-knit Dalton family – married couple Matt and Kate and daughters Holly and Millie – has been a linchpin of Gogglebox Australia, entertaining us with their quick wit and thought-provoking opinions as they comment on TV’s newest offerings. Here, Matt and Kate reflect on their 21-season run, what show gets them really fired up and being recognised in Australia and overseas. How has the show changed your family dynamic over the years? KATE DALTON I don’t think it’s changed. We’ve always had really good banter and a strong family dynamic, but I certainly think it’s brought us together. We’ve grown to know [Holly and Millie more] through all the conversations we’ve had on the couch. MATT DALTON And we probably speak about topics that prompt us…

Before she’d even read the script for The Last Showgirl, Jamie Lee Curtis was ready to sign on for the project. Why? Pamela Anderson. “As soon as [director] Gia Coppola told me that she was working on something called The Last Showgirl and it was going to star Pamela Anderson, I was in,” Curtis, 66, tells WHO. “That’s how much I wanted to work with her – as an artist and as someone I have long admired as a woman.” Like Anderson, Curtis is enjoying a renaissance, sparked by her Oscar-winning role in Everything Everywhere All at Once and her magnificent performance in hit series The Bear. After more than 40 years in the business, the best may still be to come. What can you tell us about the character…
