It’s Moira Rose’s favourite time of year – awards season! What’s not to love about seeing the biggest stars and filmmakers get all dolled up and deliver some tear-jerking speeches? Fresh off the BAFTAs (page 14), we take a look at the top contenders for the Academy Awards (page 78). Wicked star Ariana Grande is nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Oscar and tells WHO (page 20) about how the role of Glinda allowed her to flex her improv skills and harness the power of laughter. Many a star has had to wait for their turn in the spotlight – Demi Moore and Pamela Anderson are now in a club of actors enjoying long-overdue credit for their talents (page 16). Drew Barrymore opens up about turning 50 as we look…

who’s news Dearest gentle reader, Cinderella has arrived at the ball and it is easy to see why she is about to win the heart of the most eligible Bridgerton left on the Ton’s marriage mart. As a Valentine’s Day treat, Netflix released first-look images of Australian actress Yerin Ha in character as Sophie Baek during her initial meeting with Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) as they happen upon each other at a masked do. And as the actor, 36, gently brushes his lips against his leading lady’s palm, it is easy to see the pair have plenty of chemistry. The Sydney-born actress, 27, landed the coveted role in October. Her storyline, based on Julia Quinn’s novel, An Offer from a Gentleman, sees Ha play the illegitimate daughter of an Earl…

DIPLOMATIC dressing Queen Mary MOSS & SPY Despite being Australian born and bred, Queen Mary, 53, was introduced to Moss & Spy through her Danish husband when the then Crown Prince Frederik bought her a dress as a gift while visiting Sydney in 2017. She’s become a regular customer ever since, donning her favourite Elodie dress (left) on at least three occasions. “People enquire from all over the world asking if we can just please do another run on that dress,” label founder and creative director Lia Tsimos told WHO. “Mary’s elegance and her presence really resonate with so many women who want to capture a little piece of that.” Thanks to Mary making it so popular, the dress has been released in several colours. Princess Diana JENNY KEE When…

0n January 30, Timothy Malcolm Rowland walked out of Sydney’s Downing Centre Court free after being found not guilty of rape. Just days later, on February 4, Ilknur Caliskan discovered she would no longer face a murder trial after charges of stabbing her husband to death were dropped by Victorian prosecutors. What’s striking is that in each case, neither accused denied committing the acts. Instead, they argued they shouldn’t be held criminally responsible due to being asleep at the time. Despite the two cases reaching their conclusion around the same time, Dr Christopher Rudge, a lecturer at the University of Sydney Law School whose area of research is focused on mental health law and criminal responsibility, tells WHO that the use of the sleepwalking defence in Australia is “on the…

ASHLEY TISDALE The actress told Frenshe that even with a night guard, she’d wake up “aching from the neck up” as a result of TMD. Whether you’re a habitual jaw clencher – please take this as your reminder to unclench – or can’t bite into a sandwich without hearing a popping noise, most of us are familiar with jaw clicking, grinding, tension and even pain. Yet, as jaw pain can affect how we eat, speak and sleep, knowing the underlying causes can prevent further health problems. Dr Sam Guirguis, lead dentist at Natural Dentistry in Sydney, tells WHO about the root causes of jaw pain and what you can do about them. 1. TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDER Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is the leading cause of jaw pain, according to Dr…

TV SUITS: L.A. There’s no Meghan Markle, but this spin-off is set in the same universe as the original series that brought us the now Duchess of Sussex. Set in the City of Angels, it centres on Ted Black (Stephen Amell) and his team at Black Lane Law. He’s a former federal prosecutor from New York who has reinvented himself as a powerhouse attorney for Los Angeles’ elite.

who’s news Courteney Cox has shared her sadness about daughter Coco Arquette being away from home to go to college – but the Friends star has found a sunny solution to their separation. The mother-daughter duo popped up in Sydney on February 18 for what appears to be a girls’ trip to catch the end of the Australian summer. The tightknit pair – they share matching tattoos as well as fantastic physiques – wasted no time immersing themselves in the great Aussie pastime, hanging out seaside and taking a dip. Cox’s arrival marks what looks like a wrap on her return to the Scream series. Filming for the seventh instalment started in January under the working title Scar Tissue, with Cox reprising her role as journalist Gale Weathers alongside Neve…

Sabrina Carpenter and Dolly Parton have teamed up for a new version of the former’s hit song ‘Please, Please, Please’, shooting a new music video for the duet. Although the new clip isn’t a direct sequel to the original, the two certainly seem to be linked. In the video for their version, Carpenter, 25, and Parton, 79, are seen fleeing from police in a pick-up truck, Thelma and Louise-style, occasionally glancing at the truck bed. Near the end, it is revealed that they’ve kidnapped a man who is writhing around in the back, tied up with a burlap sack over his head. Although their victim’s face is not shown, eagle-eyed viewers have noted he’s dressed like Carpenter’s ex-boyfriend, actor Barry Keoghan, who featured in the track’s original video and was…

AWARDS SPECIAL 2025 Awards season is never straightforward, as the British version of the Oscars proved once again. The British Academy Film Awards delivered wins to some outsiders, throwing open the race to the Academy Awards. Arguably the biggest surprise was papal thriller Conclave taking out Best Film ahead of The Brutalist. Sentimental favourite Demi Moore, for The Substance, missed out on Best Actress to Mikey Madison, who secured it for Anora. None seemed more shocked than Madison herself, noting she didn’t prepare an acceptance speech. “I probably should have listened to my publicist and wrote something,” she said with a laugh, trophy in hand. Held at London’s Royal Festival Hall and hosted by David Tennant, who begged recipients, “Please keep your speeches the opposite of your films: nice and…

Just a few years after it looked like he would see out his days working at a desk job selling timeshares in the Cayman Islands, actor Armie Hammer appears to be staging a remarkable career revival. If he can pull it off, it will be one for the Hollywood history books. But there’s rarely a comeback without a confession, so earlier this month the 38-year-old went on The Louis Theroux Podcast to tell his side of the story. During the at-times heated interview, Hammer told Theroux that he was not a cannibal despite sending a text that read, “I am 100 per cent a cannibal.” He had been an “a---hole” and a “d--k” to women, but didn’t break any laws. “I was selfish, and inconsiderate, and an a---hole, and a…

Jeremy Scott, 41, and Elizabeth Afrakoff, 35, hadn’t been together long when a trip to the beach in 2021 generated an idea that would change their future. “We were on one of our early dates, wandering down to the beach, and Liz was looking very stylish but she had one of those horrendous, 1950s nanna-style beach umbrellas,” Jeremy recalls. “I was like, ‘What’s this?’, and Liz explained that it was fairly light, she could set it up on her own and there weren’t really any other options out there.” Jeremy tells WHO that “as a redhead with freckles”, he’d only ever go to the beach for 20 minutes so he had never really considered what people did for shade. As their relationship blossomed, so did their idea to create a…

He was once rumoured to be cast as The Bachelor on Network 10’s show of the same name, but Jad Nehmetallah is now out of the running for good. The Gogglebox favourite, 39, tied the knot with his fiancée, Sarah, just seven months after he popped the question. The pair said “I do” at Sydney’s St Mary’s Cathedral on February 15 in front of friends and family, including his fellow couch critics Matty and Sarah Marie Fahd. “May you both always find one another through the ups and the downs, may your love last forever and a day,” Matty wrote in a tribute to the newlyweds on Instagram following their special day. “Congratulations, we love you.” The happy couple met through mutual friends and started dating in 2023. “From the…

Lily James and Glen Powell were in great spirits as they were spotted leaving a BAFTAs afterparty together in a taxi, setting tongues wagging about a potential new romance between the pair. The Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again actress, 35, and the actor, 36, had been at the Charles Finch & Chanel BAFTA Party in Mayfair, with Powell chivalrously giving James his grey suit jacket as they strolled towards their waiting taxi. The stars haven’t worked together for the past seven years but have remained close since they played lovers in 2018 film The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Neither is thought to be dating anyone. “If love comes and hits me in the face and knocks me over, I welcome it with open arms because that’s…

AWA SPECIAL 2025 Story Strap It took a role as a has-been clinging to her glory days of fame for Demi Moore to get her real-life dues after decades in the spotlight. “I’ve been acting for 45 years, and this is the first time I’ve ever won anything as an actor,” she said accepting her Golden Globe for The Substance, recalling how three decades earlier a producer told her she was a “popcorn actress” who 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,” she continued, adding that when she read the script for the body-horror sleeper hit, “the universe told me that, ‘You’re not done.’” Moore, a frontrunner to win the Best Actress…

She was once recognised by Forbes magazine as the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire. But since turning herself in to a minimum-security women’s prison camp in Texas almost two years ago after being sentenced to 11 years on fraud and conspiracy charges, Elizabeth Holmes, the infamous founder of sham blood-testing technology start-up Theranos, has earnt 47 cents an hour as a re-entry clerk, helping fellow inmates prepare for life outside. Even with her sentence reduced for good behaviour, Holmes, 41, isn’t due for release until 2032, but she’s planning for post-prison life, intending to champion prison reform and return to medical research. “There is not a day I have not continued to work on my research and inventions,” she said in an interview with People magazine, telling the outlet she…

CHARITABLE CHOICE Beulah London is a socially conscious brand that makes their dresses in the UK, but packages them in a tote that is sewn in India by women who are survivors of human trafficking. They also source regenerative cotton to reduce the carbon impact of their clothing. Kate is a big fan of the label and has stepped out wearing eight of their dresses. “She wore something from our very first collection, which was incredible,” co-founder Natasha Rufus Isaacs told Vanity Fair. “So we’ve had her support for a long time.” LOCAL LOOKS As the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate donned a Gulrukh Tunic Dress by designer Anita Dongre on her visit to India in 2016. While little known outside of the country at the time, overseas visitors soon caused…

With her luminous skin and growing follower count that helped build a profitable wellness empire, Jessica Ainscough appeared to have it all. But her bright eyes, wide smile and claims she’d “cured” her cancer naturally hid a sinister secret. In reality, her slow-spreading form of the disease was gradually killing her. As one of Australia’s original wellness influencers of the 2010s, Ainscough’s story is back in the spotlight thanks to her similarities with Apple Cider Vinegar’s Milla. But unlike fraudster Belle Gibson, who lied for popularity and profit, Ainscough really was ill and betting her life on food being medicine. The Dolly online editor was diagnosed with rare soft tissue cancer epithelioid sarcoma in 2008, aged 22. After a short round of chemotherapy, her only medical option left was a…

For some of us, our jobs are a little more than just what we do in exchange for money – they’re who we are. And losing yourself in your work is understandable given the average person spends a third of their life at work – that’s an eye-watering 90,000 hours. After 14 years in the industry, Zendaya, 28, shared concerns over her identity outside of her acting career. “I’ve been working since I was a kid, and I was like, ‘Wait, who am I when I’m not working?’” The Challengers star told The Hollywood Reporter. “‘Do I have a life? What do I even like to do? What are my hobbies? Like, who is Zendaya outside of this?’” Gavin Brown, psychologist at The Banyans Healthcare, says it’s not uncommon to…

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS, ACTIVE RESULTS The same ingredients that elevate your facial skincare can work wonders for your body. According to LeeAnne Leslie, a dermal therapist and clinical training and education manager for Alpha-H, the key is targeting common concerns such as loss of elasticity, uneven tone and dehydration. She recommends using clinically proven actives like retinol, peptides and AHAs. “When it comes to the skin on the body, the concerns we look to target are primarily the same as the face,” Leslie explains. Loss of elasticity can cause a crepey appearance, while dehydration leads to dryness and uneven texture. Applying active ingredients lets you effectively address these issues from head to toe. Tip “Like all skincare regimes, consistency is key, so make sure you apply your body products regularly,” Leslie…
