Nicole Kidman has been Australia’s golden girl for as long as I can remember. She’s had a career most actors and actresses can only dream of, playing emotionally demanding and undeniably risky characters on the small and big screen and in theatre. It’s no secret that in the TV and film industry, roles begin to disappear when women meet a certain age – but Nicole has managed to create a career resurgence in hit after hit. This year alone, Nicole stars in three films – Aquaman , Boy Erased and Destroyer . Her talent speaks for itself and she’s paving the way for so many actresses to follow her, but setting the bar very, very high. What I love most…

AFTER 11 CHILDREN WERE transferred from Nauru’s Immigration Detention Centre for urgent medical treatment on Oct. 22, independent MP Dr Kerryn Phelps called for the 52 children who remained at the time to also be relocated. Speaking to WHO, the federal member for Wentworth said, “A child will die any day if we don’t get them off.” Now it appears the government is being forced to take action, with High Commissioner to the United Kingdom George Brandis saying there should be no children left on Nauru by the end of the year. “This is a problem that has largely gone away,” Brandis told London radio station LBC on Nov. 1. “There are hardly any children in Nauru and in New Guinea, and we expect that by the end of this…

It’s the show that has shocked the nation, with thousands of viewers left appalled by some of Australia’s most awful parents on Bride & Prejudice . By far the most controversial of the lot is Melbourne mum Fatima, who hasn’t held back about her feelings towards her son Seyat’s fiancée, Jess. The disgruntled mother offered the 21-year-old $10,000 to leave Seyat. But Jess wasn’t having a bar of it.“She is bullying me,”Jess tells WHO. The drama has also spilled off-screen for the young couple after Seyat, 19, went public to make comments about Jess’sexual history on Sydney’s Kyle and Jackie O radio show.“She did have a history in the past,”Seyat said. “Have you asked her how many people she’s been with?”host Kyle Sandilands…

Chief Claire, Robin Wright, is back to take over the reins as president of the United States in Season 6 of House of Cards – and she tells WHO fans they can expect many more power suits, sharp one-liners and an interesting mystery surrounding the death of Francis Underwood. It’s wonderful to see a woman as president of the United States. Why is it not happening in reality? Because the election was fixed [Laughs]. I mean, that’s just speculation but it is interesting because there’s so many other countries that have female leaders, right, and we are the land of opportunity. I mean, I just have one word for what’s happening to this country. It’s devastating. It really is. How was it coming back without Kevin…

The term “gay conversion therapy” evokes thoughts of archaic rites dating back to a less enlightened era such as the 1950s. But, sadly, the practice continues today. Based on the memoir by Garrard Conley, the emotive Boy Erased stars Hedges as Jared, the son of devout Christian minister Marshall (Russell Crowe) and his supportive wife Nancy (Kidman). They can’t comprehend why their son is attracted to men, as they believe it is a choice. Loving child that he is, Jared despises his own feelings and is prepared to do whatever it takes to regain his parents’ approval. At the Love in Action centre, “whatever it takes” includes pseudo-psychology about how to be a man and homework every night, even though Jared is perturbed by the spelling…

THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE The Netflix horror series everyone is talking about is one you want to watch before you find out how it ends. Set in both 1992, when the Crain family move into a run-down mansion with plans to renovate it, and the present, when the adult children are still dealing with the creepy and sometimes deadly things that occurred, it’s spooky stuff. RNB FRIDAYS LIVE With music superstar Usher headlining and a line-up that includes Salt ‘n’ Pepa, Ginuwine, Eve, Naughty By Nature, Estelle, Trey Songz, Lil Jon and PM Scott Morrison’s pal Fatman Scoop, it’s a throwback jam bonanza as RNB Fridays Live heads around the country, kicking off in Perth on Fri., Nov. 9. The Sydney and Brisbane shows are sold out, but at…

THE STRANGER DIARIES Elly Griffiths When teacher Ella Elphick is murdered in an apparently frenzied attack, everyone is a potential suspect, including close friend and colleague Clare Cassidy. Clare’s no stranger to murder, specialising in gothic writers, particularly Victorian ghost writer R.M. Holland, whose study is preserved in the school’s attic just metres from where his wife fell to her death. When chilling comments written in an unknown hand appear in Clare’s diary, she realises someone’s watching her and it’s likely the killer. As detective Harbinder Kaur attempts to uncover the truth and Clare’s daughter is drawn into the mystery, another body is found. Written by the bestselling author of the Dr Ruth Galloway series, this is for fans of spooky, atmospheric thrillers.  (Out now) THE RECKONING John Grisham His…

THE LITTLE DRUMMER GIRL STARRING: Alexander Skarsgård The latest in a long line of adaptations of John le Carré novels – and hoping no doubt to receive as warm a reception as 2016’s The Night Manager – this six-part miniseries concerns the recruitment of small-time actress Charmian “Charlie” Ross (Florence Pugh) by a clandestine group of Israeli spies intent on catching a Palestinian terrorist, with Skarsgård her laconic handler. Why Charlie? Don’t expect an answer to that question quickly or, in fact, anything to happen with much haste – The Little Drummer Girl puts the “slow” in slow burn. Indeed, it is not until the second episode that the disparate story strands introduced in the first episode start to be pulled together.…

POST MALONE The unstoppable genre-hopping, chart-dominating artist keeps adding dates – 10 and counting – to his 2019 arena tour, which commences in Perth on Fri., Apr. 26.

RAIN SHOW SYDNEY, NOV. 2 After an hour’s delay due to stormy weather, Taylor Swift didn’t let a little rain dampen her spirit as she performed the only Sydney show of her Reputation tour at ANZ Stadium.

“Ted’s just a fully-fledged entertainer … Charlie’s just a little boy in his narcissistic world, like his dad.” Robbie Williams revealed that his children, Theodora, 6, and Charlton, 4, are chips off the old block. “Young people have kids and then spend the next 30 years looking after them. For what, I don’t know … Basically they are a pain in the arse, as they cost a fortune.” John Cleese opened up on what he really thinks of having kids. “I remember the filming of it, I just don’t remember what the movie is about … But I liked making the movie and I loved flying.”…

There wasn’t a dry guest in sight, but that didn’t stop Cross Counter prevailing at the Nov. 6 Melbourne Cup in Flemington. “It’s a huge thrill to win this race,” said jockey Kerrin McEvoy, who rode the three-year-old across the winning line, claiming a $7.3 million prize. Despite being the most inexperienced runner, Cross Counter swooped down the outside to snatch victory by a teeth-clenchingly narrow margin. Although punters kept their eyes on the track, fashion enthusiasts averted their attention to the frocks and hats trackside. Bright jewel tones made a colourful contrast from the strict monochromatic outfits of Derby Day three days before. Everything from wide brims to gem-encrusted headbands brought life to a dreary afternoon. Guest of honour, Australian actress and former Dynasty star Nathalie Kelley, was over…

IN A MOVE SET TO BREAK ROYAL protocol, the Queen has reportedly invited Duchess Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, to spend Christmas Day at her country estate in Norfolk along with the rest of the royal family – including the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. “It’s a mark of the Queen’s respect for Meghan and an acknowledgement that she doesn’t have any other relations in the country – unlike Kate, who has the support of a very close family,” a source told the UK’s Daily Express on Nov. 5. While Kate’s family has spent Christmas Day with the royals in the past, they’ve never stayed at the same estate as the Queen. News of the Queen’s rare offering comes as Ragland prepares to make a permanent move…

Before making a name for himself as one of the most sought-after Hollywood stars, Swedish-born Alexander Skarsgård had been a household name in Sweden as lead actor in the series Hunden som log ( The Dog that Smiled ). After quitting acting for seven years, enlisting in the military, then studying English for six months at university, Skarsgård enrolled to study theatre and reignited his love for acting. Now, he stars in the new drama miniseries The Little Drummer Girl following his success in Big Little Lies. How is your career going? I just wrapped up filming Big Little Lies Season 2, so I am taking a little break for at least a couple of days. These last…

Maggie Beer never set out to become a bona fide national treasure – one of our most beloved culinary writers, cooks and TV personalities. Rather, the chance to share her lifelong love of food has proven an unexpected but endless source of delight for the grandmother of six. “I didn’t plan to do television,” she admits. “It was just a passive periphery, but it’s been fun and definitely a happy accident. No-one gave me advice. I’ve always just been myself.” At 73, Beer, having achieved so much, could be forgiven for wanting to hang up her apron – in a professional sense. But as she reveals, she has no plans to retire – perhaps ever. “No, no – too much to do in life,” she chuckles. Indeed, a busier-than-ever Beer…

It’s Australia’s version of the Oscars, and this year marks the 60th anniversary of the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts (AACTA) Awards. Over the years the AACTA red carpet has produced some of Australia’s most memorable looks, launching actresses’ careers and cementing fashion trends of the time. From skin-tight latex to head-to-toe yellow or feminine lace, local A-listers – alongside their stylists – choose the AACTAs red carpet to take their biggest fashion risks. Actress Cate Blanchett and stylist Elizabeth Stewart spoke of their experience creating a red-carpet look, noting that it can take up to 300 hours for an atelier to create a bespoke piece for Blanchett to wear. “I wish you all could see the hours of work and artistry that go into making a brilliant…

PERMANENT PONYTAIL RUT? Let’s face it, a ponytail is the simplest and easiest go-to style on a balmy day. Our favourite up-do instantly eliminates the frizz factor, while still achieving a chic, modern look. But a little style switch-up for everyday hair is on the cards for us all … Take notes from Margot Robbie and modernise your look with a style that’s just as easy to achieve, but slightly more fun. TRY IT NOW: Try a low, loose ponytail at the nape of your neck with face-framing pieces, then wrap the length around the base and secure with pins. Or mimic Robbie’s playful double bun with pig-tails and wrapped buns. The key is to pump up your hair’s texture before you put it up, says celebrity hairstylist Bryce Scarlett,…

WHERE TO STAY THE PARKER PALM SPRINGS First, a confession. If ever there was a destination where sitting by the pool is de rigueur, Palm Springs is it. It’s just so easy to take a seat in a cabana surrounded by palm trees and cool mid-century design and loll by one of the fabulous pools on the 13-acre Parker Palm Springs estate instead of heading out to explore. Besides, who would want to leave? The 144-room Parker has to be one of the most beautiful hotels in the world. New York designer Jonathan Adler first came in to renovate in 2004 and has recently redecorated the resort again, amping up the glam factor. Let’s just say that there are about 1000 Instagram opportunities here. His signature maximalist touches of whimsy…

My life has been vastly improved by an obsession with TV. I diagnosed my husband’s appendicitis – no formal training, just years of House , ER , All Saints and Grey’s Anatomy on my CV. I’ve learnt culinary terms from MasterChef , music appreciation from The Voice and a sense of style from Sex and the City . One area where TV viewing has been no help: parenting. And two new shows about children are sure pushing my guilt buttons. First up, Child Genius . In SBS’s six-parter (starting Mon., Nov. 12 at 7.30pm), youngsters are quizzed for the title of Australia’s top…

What can we expect from your new show? A show that feels fresh. It’s from my perspective, but we have tried to make a show that is relatable and reflects contemporary life in Australia – the good, the bad, the ugly. I think people will watch and know someone that talks like that or see something that’s happened to them in a sketch. You have a great ensemble, including Matt Okine and Becky Lucas, and big guest stars like Kat Stewart and Tim Minchin as well … It was a dream. All the people we got on the show, I’m a massive fan of. I had to try really hard not to fanboy in front of them. Is there anyone you didn’t get on the show who you would love…

We see more of your character in this week’s second episode – and you got to keep your Australian accent … I went in and had a few accents ready, and the director said,“I want your spirit and humour and that ruffian Australian thing.” Is it any difference working on a British series from what you’re used to? You work overseas and go, “F--k, I’m doing a big show in England,” but you get on set and there’s dubious food catering, the actors are anxious and the director’s in a rush, and you go, “Oh, this is like Australia.” It’s the same everywhere. Did you enjoy your Game of Thrones experience? It was fantastic. It’s a huge break, but I only had two-and-a-half scenes – one…

Time she sang along to the radio Ten minutes ago. I do it every day. Right now I love“No Brainer” by DJ Khaled. Will I get back into singing? We will see. [Her boutique] Envy is huge for me right now and it is so successful that I am putting all my work and effort into that. Show she binged Grey’s Anatomy . Fight she had I had an argument with my assistant yesterday. We were having a party at my home and I felt he got a little too wasted. Alcoholic drink she had Sangria. Big purchase I bought some jewellery. Some bling!…

ACTRESS PAMELA ANDERSON IS urging Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison to get behind WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and to “take him back to Australia”. In an interview with 60 Minutes on Nov. 4, the animal-rights activist, 51, opened up about her friendship with Assange, whom she met two years ago. “I wanted to meet him because I wanted to ask him how to be a more effective activist,” Anderson said, adding they have a special relationship. “We don’t have a romantic relationship like that, but I feel close to him. And I feel closer to him than a lot of people have and he trusts me.” Assange, 47, has been granted asylum at the Ecuadorean Embassy in London, where he has stayed since 2012, after leaking…

She rose to fame in 2005 after forming music duo The Veronicas with her twin sister Jessica, and has since co-written and released several hit tracks. Now, Lisa Origliasso, 33, has made headlines once again after tying the knot with long-time boyfriend Logan Huffman, 28. “I am the luckiest girl in the universe”—Lisa Origliasso The edgy brunette and the American actor said their vows at Secrets On the Lake in Queensland after V star Huffman popped the question in late 2016. Taking to Instagram in January 2017 to announce their engagement, Origliasso posted a heartfelt tribute alongside a photo of her customised diamond ring. “Only he who truly knows me, could design something that could so flawlessly capture the essence of who I am and what this means to me,”…

He’s known for his role as Robb Stark in the hit series Game of Thrones and Richard Madden, 32, broke hearts everywhere when he died during the infamous Red Wedding scene at the end of Season 3. Now, as the lead actor in the BBC series Bodyguard (now streaming on Netflix), Madden reveals he still can’t wrap his head around his new-found fame and the instant success of the series. “I have some friends who are suffering from PTSD” “It’s been completely overwhelming and I really haven’t caught up with it yet,” he tells WHO. “I hear these figures about how many people have watched it, and I still don’t think it’s true.” When it comes to a second season, Madden reveals that although he isn’t in production talks, he…

Whether you’re travelling without the kids and pets, or you simply want to keep an eye on your treasured possessions at home, there’s a new camera changing the game in Australia. The Nest Cam IQ ($479) provides comprehensive coverage of a large area, and the 1080p HD quality is brilliant, even in the dead of night. The cam comes with an app which, based on your settings, can alert you to movement, noise or a face it doesn’t recognise. You can watch your home live from wherever you are and even talk through the inbuilt speakers to delivery drivers or unwanted guests. It can also double as a Google Home thanks to an integration with Google Assistant. Big thumbs-up from me.…

ARIES MARCH 20–APRIL 18 There is much activity to contend with as you move rapidly from one thing to another. A hectic, somewhat stressful pace is likely, so avoid biting off more than you can chew. Many errands, phone calls, letters which require a response, and other busywork is on the agenda. A minor but rather tense confrontation is likely over children or family. For more, phone 1902 261 655. TAURUS APRIL 19–MAY 20 Relaxation, enjoyment, and pleasure are emphasised. This is not a time to push yourself or be involved in activities that require intense competition or a great expenditure of energy. Cooperative, harmonious relationships are more important to you and favours can be positively exchanged. Shopping for bargains? You will get more for your dollar. For more, phone…

Are you looking forward to hosting this year’s AACTAs? Do you get nervous at all? I’m so excited about hosting again. It’s been 10 years since I hosted so I can use all the same jokes and no-one will notice. I get more nervous than I would doing an acting role, but only in about the last 10 seconds before I go on stage. You invariably have a moment where you say to yourself,“Wow, you really think this is a good idea? Good luck, idiot.” You also hosted the 50th AACTAs. How does it feel to be the go-to guy for big events? I only do round numbers. It’s in my contract. You took to the stage to Choirboys’“Run to Paradise” last time. How will you top that? Keep this…

JONAS BLUE Blue With eight singles already released – dating right back to his debut effort, 2015’s chart-topping remake of Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” – this album by the performer born Guy Robin serves as somewhat of a greatest hits collection and, thanks to seven previously unreleased songs, an indication of where he’s headed next. The answer: more of the same summery vibes, with the British DJ/producer sticking to his accessible tropical house sound on tracks such as “Drink to You” and “Wild”.  (Out Fri., Nov. 9) IMAGINE DRAGONS Origins Coming about 16 months after the release of previous album Evolve , to which Origins is said to be a companion, the fourth album by the American crowd-pleasers is sure to keep them…

THE BOLD TYPE STARRING: Katie Stevens Having always dreamed of writing for women’s mag Scarlet , Jane (Stevens) finds the reality more of a nightmare. Her first article: “How to stalk your unstalkable ex.” It means tracking down the guy who broke her heart and it’s not exactly the Pulitzer Prizewinning topic she was hoping for. Inspired by the life of former US Cosmopolitan editor-in-chief Joanna Coles, this is more page-flicker than page-turner, but it’s pretty to look at. (On Stan from Fri., Nov. 9) THE SINNER S2 STARRING: Bill Pullman Emmy-nominated Jessica Biel is gone this season, leaving Pullman’s Detective Ambrose to move on to another impressively weird, unpleasant crime. Two homicide victims, a man and a woman, are…
