Carol channelled Kim Kardashian Last month, presenter Carol Vorderman was likened to Kim Kardashian as she showcased her curves in skin-tight black trousers. And now she’s gone a step further by recreating Kim’s iconic ‘break the internet’ pose. Carol, 58, was snapped balancing a glass of wine on her award-winning backside, begging the question – who does it best? The photo, which sees the ex-Countdown star bending over while enjoying drinks outside, was uploaded just days after Carol denied having bum implants. Shutting the accusations down, she insisted, ‘I promise I haven’t had bottom implants... I’ve been working out for decades, so the shape of mine is down to years of keeping fit!’ Mel B said she and Geri got Spicy We didn’t think Mel B could say or do…

When it comes to having cosmetic procedures, Kerry Katona insists she would never touch her face, despite the growing number of celebrities having non-surgical facelifts and lip fillers. But she isn’t shy in admitting she’d have pretty much anything else done, as long as it's on offer. ‘I’ll have it all on me, as long as it’s free,’ she jokes with us when we catch up with her at the 10th anniversary of Beauty Box Skin Clinic by Maggie. Despite having gone under the knife multiple times to have liposuction, a tummy tuck and four boob jobs, Kerry says, ‘I don’t like messing with my face because it’s your face. You f**k that up and then you’re in s**t.’ As surgery is off the table, the 38-year-old credits her good…

‘I’m too weak to resist’ Niki Nathani, 25, is single and lives in South London ‘I’ve loved all my boyfriends but I’ve cheated on most of them! If the opportunity arises, I’m too weak to resist. I know some people may think that makes me a bad person, but I’m very loving and caring in relationships. I’m just weak when it comes to the opposite sex and I can’t resist the thrill of playing away. My intentions are normally innocent, but as soon as I strike up a relationship with someone it quickly becomes sexual. It’s difficult fighting the urge when someone lays it on the table for you and you know you can get away with it. My friends think that I’m programmed like a man, but I believe…

‘Getting married in Disneyland is taking the Mickey Mouse!’ Loved-up Love Islanders Cara De La Hoyde and Nathan Massey have got it made – not only do they have an adorable son Freddie, one, but they’re now planning their dream wedding and have settled into family life in Kent.

Nathan, we heard you’re not keen on a Disney wedding, how about a Las Vegas one? Nathan: Nah, I’m very family orientated, I’ve got a lot of close friends so I’d like everyone there.

SWEET CHEEKS Nothing looks better than a peachy glow on the apples of your cheeks. It’ll make you look more awake and it’s subtle if you don’t want to make a bold statement. If you choose to wear a coral on your cheeks, try to keep the rest of your face warm to balance it out. When finding your perfect shade, aim for a colour most similar to your skintone.

Katie Price’s career as a page three model kicked off the very same year Now magazine was launched. But 23 years and a lot of headlines later, it’s sadly time for us to say goodbye – just like Katie knows she should be doing to her life in the limelight. After months of arguably difficult and testing times, the mum-of-five desperately realises that her alter-ego, and life that goes with it, needs to give in gracefully. With so much early success, likeability and screen time, Katie should have comfortably reached national treasure status by now. But, almost three decades later, her career has spiralled into near ruin. DOWNWARD SPIRAL It’s been a tough year for the 40-year-old. From being arrested to facing court appearances and narrowly avoiding bankruptcy, it’s often…

Stacey struck by the curse of Strictly! Just months after she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, documentary maker Stacey Dooley, 32, has split from boyfriend of three years Sam Tucknott. The relationship is said to have become strained after Stacey’s fame skyrocketed following her victory alongside hunky pro dancer Kevin Clifton in December last year. Like several partners before him, poor Sam, 30, was also said to be jealous over his girlfriend’s friendship and sizzling chemistry with Kevin, 36,  though Stacey shot down the rumours. ‘The truth is Kevin and I are brilliant friends and he’ll be my pal for life,’ she said. ‘And Sam was probably the most supportive he has ever been. When I first got the gig he was just so made up.’ Stacey is now the…

‘You get used to lying on the spot’ Luis Galdeano, 27, is a barman from Bury who isn’t a fan of monogamy‘I’ve never been faithful. There’s just too much opportunity and so many gorgeous girls. I’ve had girlfriends find out and give me a second chance, then I do it again. I won’t change. Why should I?It’s exciting to know I’ve got a girlfriend at home and she has no idea I’m with someone else. An ex once smelled perfume on me, but I just said it was off my mate’s girlfriend I’d given a lift to. It worked. You get used to lying on the spot when you’re a serial cheat.’ WHAT’S A REPEAT AFFAIR? Those who repeatedly seek out affairs may lack self-control or be the type of…

Amy Childs is one former TOWIE star who’s proved the critics wrong. Now a successful businesswoman with a property portfolio, she’s thought to be worth £5m. So what’s her secret? ‘Just enjoy it and don’t take yourself too seriously,’ Amy tells Now . ‘I wish I’d stayed in TOWIE longer, but I wouldn’t be in this position if I’d stayed. I own four properties, they’re all rented out. I also have a furniture range with Obaby and a pram range with Roma.

Hi guys! This week, I want to talk about Olivia Attwood’s recent comments about her ex Chris Hughes and Jesy Nelson’s romance. Olivia is of the opinion that Chris is well suited to Jesy as they both enjoy the spotlight. These comments could come across as being misplaced and possibly bitter. My advice to Olivia would be to distance herself from the couple. If she is as over the relationship as she claims, then this shouldn’t be hard. If Chris is with Jesy for dishonour able reasons, then she’ll find out soon enough. Jesy isn’t stupid, and with the support of her band she’d soon move onwards and upwards. Dear Annabelle, My ex and I never had great sex. Now I’m single I want to experiment! A: Get some sex…

Hi, Luisa! What’s your favourite way to keep fit? I’m addicted to Pilates – I do it around five times a week, sometimes twice a day. What motivates you to stay in shape? I just genuinely love it – I don’t really like bad food and I enjoy eating healthily and feeling good, so I find it quite easy. Any fitness goals coming up? I’m training for a charity horse race for The Magnolia Cup at the Goodwood Festival, so I’m doing a lot more cardio for that than I’m used to. I hate cardio! What do you most love about your body? I get complimented on my eyes and teeth and I’ve got a pretty good stomach, but I want to tone it up more Do you have a…

‘Now magazine was a part of my childhood, back when you couldn’t get celebrity gossip directly to your phones. Back then I never  would have believed I would be featured inside those glossy covers.

Here’s what these ‘happy family’ poses suggest. KEEP CALM & CARRY ON Coleen has spotted the camera and her wide, happy smile has returned.

Adele and J-Law on the lash! WHEN: 22 MARCH WHERE: GREENWICH VILLAGE, NEW YORK If there are two celebs we’d love to party with, it would definitely be Adele and Jennifer Lawrence.

‘As I slipped into my new, white bikini, I felt great. It was August 2017 and I was on holiday in Bulgaria with my friend Jenny* and my daughter, Ebony, 13. As a hairdresser, I worked long hours and was always on my feet, so a week of relaxation was exactly what I needed. Perching by the poolside and dipping my toes into the water, I sighed happily. ‘This is perfect,’ I said, smiling at Jenny. But as I closed my eyes and turned my face up to the sun, I could hear giggling. Snapping my eyes open, I realised there was a group of teenage girls gathered together at the opposite side of the pool. ‘Oh my God, what is she wearing?’ one sniggered. ‘Mortified, I covered up in…

Kim Kardashian may seem like the epitome of physical perfection, but the 38-year-old suffers from skin problems just like the rest of us. Her ailment? Psoriasis – which she was diagnosed with in 2011. The mum-of-three even posted on Instagram that ‘Psoriasis is the shits,’ in February this year. And fellow sufferers have praised her for recently showing off her condition with make-up free selfies. But what is psoriasis? ‘This skin condition appears as flaky, red patches covered with silvery-white scales that can lead to painful skin cracks and, in turn, bouts of anxiety or depression about your appearance,’ explains Robert Bradshaw, pharmacist at oxfordonlinepharmacy.co.uk. ‘It affects between 2-4% of Brits and isn’t contagious, but is usually persistent without treatment.’ The cause isn’t fully known, but is thought to be…

1 Start slowly If you’ve never run before or are starting again after a long break, work up to it bit by bit. It’s the most effective way to build strength and fitness, plus it will help prevent injury.
