Just like Adele, I recently turned 33. True to style, I had a mini panic about whether or not I had achieved what I had set out to by this age. But if this past year has taught me anything, it’s that sometimes things are completely out of our control and we have to learn to adapt. A quick Google search tells me the number 33 represents that all things are possible and I truly feel that – just look at Adele! The singer has embraced her new life as a single mum and, after working hard to lose 45 kilos, she finally feels confident in her own skin. To read why she’s loving being“thirty free”, turn to page 22. Age-defying superstar Cher has never shied away from being authentic, and with…

It’s been a hell of a year, but if there’s one thing the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us, it’s that we’re all in this together. And that was certainly the message from singers, celebrity speakers and world leaders alike during the Global Citizen’s Vax Live: The Concert to Reunite The World at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on May 2. The concert had the star power befitting LA’s first live event in over a year, with Selena Gomez hosting, Jennifer Lopez performing, and Prince Harry speaking on the need to help less-resourced nations get vaccine doses. Thousands of fully-vaccinated frontline health care and essential workers enjoyed the show at the stadium and the event was a smash hit with many others around the globe, with Global Citizen raising over $385 million to…

Performing at the Global Citizen’s VAX Live: The Concert to Reunite the World on May 2, Jennifer Lopez brought down the house with her emotionally charged opening number. “We’ve been away from our loved ones for too long,” she shouted to the crowd before launching into her rendition of Neil Diamond’s ‘Sweet Caroline’. “But we’re back.” “They have a strong connection”- SOURCE The upbeat message was about public health, but things are also taking off in her private life. Lopez, 51, is continuing to rekindle her relationship with former flame Ben Affleck, who appeared separately at the VAX Live concert. The next day, they took things up a notch by packing a lot of luggage and jetting off by private plane together to the Yellowstone Club in Montana for a week-long holiday. “They…

“They won’t present a united front”-SOURCE They were brothers who leaned on each other as they “went through hell together” following the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. But Prince William and Prince Harry’s relationship is now so fractured following Megxit, the Oprah Winfrey interview and a strained reunion at Prince Philip’s funeral, that the pair cannot put their differences aside for one day to honour their beloved mum. The siblings are scheduled to appear together on July 1, at the unveiling of a statue dedicated to Princess Diana on the grounds of her former home at Kensington Palace. The event marks what would have been her 60th birthday if she had not been killed in a car crash in 1997. “You might have thought they’d go for a joint statement and…

In late March, Jolie volunteered to testify about domestic violence claims, despite the accusations having been “reported to the authorities and thoroughly investigated before concluding no wrongdoing” at the time of their split in 2016. “These have been the same attacks repeated for the past four and a half years,” an insider told Vanity Fair at the time. Another source later revealed to Page Six that Pitt felt the leak about the claims was intentional to sway the outcome of the trial. “He is feeling more and more isolated from his children,” they said. “He’s devastated about it.”…
