When we began pulling together our list for WHO’s Sexiest People issue, we were looking for Australian and Hollywood stars who weren’t afraid to be unapologetically themselves. After all, sexiness ultimately has to come from a confidence within. As we went through our list of powerhouse athletes, actors, businesswomen and artists, a pattern quickly began to emerge. All the incredible talent on our list had someone – whether that be a friend, spouse, co-star or family member – right alongside them to encourage them to embrace their individuality. So this year we decided to double up on sexiness and feature duos who prove that being sexy isn’t just about looks – it’s an attitude. And our star-studded line-up this year has that in spades. Sophie Monk and her hilarious dad…

GOLDEN GIRL ASH BARTY THIS WEEK WON the biggest payday in tennis history. The 23-year-old took out the WTA finals in China, pocketing a historic $6.4 million cheque – an amount not even won by legends like Roger Federer and Serena Williams. But after defeating the defending champion Elina Svitolina to take out the enormous prize, Barty made a comical slip of the tongue during her acceptance speech. “First and foremost, thank you to the S...ty … ah, the city of Shenzhen,” the world No. 1 said. Barty insisted her achievement won’t change who she is. “I’ve got everything I need,” Barty said, adding that she will be only too happy to spoil her niece Lucy, 3, and nephew Oscar, who is almost 2, for Christmas. “They’re getting a new…

LOOKING FITTER THAN HE HAS IN A LONG time, Rob Kardashian, who has shied away from the spotlight in recent times, shared a rare photo of himself on Instagram on November 2. In the Halloween shot, a thinner-looking Kardashian, 32, dressed in a Papa Troll costume, posed alongside mother, Kris Jenner, who opted for a Coco-themed outfit. It was the first photo of himself he’d shared in more than a year. Kardashian also posted a shot of Dream, his daughter with his ex, Blac Chyna, who turns 3 on November 10, wearing a Poppy Troll costume. It was a busy time for Kardashian, who popped up on sister Kylie Jenner’s Instagram. Kylie, 22, posted a photo of her with Kardashian and sister Kendall, 24, and wrote,“5am birthday adventures with my…

DEE DEE BLANCHARD Divorcee Clauddine ‘Dee Dee’ Blanchard helped her wheelchair-bound teen daughter, Gypsy, as she battled leukaemia and muscular dystrophy. But it was all a lie – the cruel mum from Springfield, Missouri had forced Gypsy to pretend to be ill and undergo unnecessary surgeries and take medication she didn’t need. When Gypsy was 23, she could take no more – so she and her boyfriend murdered her mum. Gypsy was jailed for 10 years. MARYBETH TINNING All nine of Tinning’s children died young, leading to an outpouring of sympathy from the local community. But eventually, authorities ruled eight of the deaths were ‘suspicious’. Tinning was charged with three murders, but prosecuted for only one – smothering her 4-month-old baby, Tami. She spent 31 years in prison before being…

“You break up, you grieve, you get bored of grieving, and then you finally move on.” Helena Bonham Carter spoke about romance and her new man, Rye Dag Holmboe. “It was his! It was Conleth’s (Hill) coffee cup. He said so!” Emilia Clarke revealed the culprit who infamously left a coffee cup in a scene of hit drama Game of Thrones was her co-star Conleth Hill. “I gave her t--ties a good ol’ feel. She’s got a great cleavage and they’re like really solid t--s, and so I told her it and she said thank you.” Sharon Osbourne was full of praise for Camilla Parker Bowles and her, er, breasts.…

FROM ONE SCREEN STAR TO another … Nicole Kidman presented the Career Achievement Award to her Bombshell co-star Charlize Theron at this year’s Hollywood Film Awards on November 3. Receiving the award, Theron, 44, thanked the “brave” real-life women, depicted in Bombshell, who took on former Fox News boss, Roger Ailes. Renée Zellweger, 50, who portrayed screen icon Judy Garland in the film Judy picked up the Hollywood Actress Award.

ON CELEBRATING THE anniversary of her wedding to her AFL star husband Buddy Franklin, Jesinta Franklin was feeling the love on November 4. “Still this stoked 3 years later,” the former Miss Universe Australia captioned a loved-up shot from their November 2016 wedding day on Instagram. “So excited to be starting our little fam, I love doing life with you,” she added. In August, Jesinta, 28, confirmed she and her Sydney Swans star husband, 32, are expecting their first baby. “The journey to get here hasn’t been easy, and this little life is the greatest gift,” she shared at the time. Although looking forward to the future, Jesinta is also apparently feeling nostalgic – and romantic – sharing a total of 16 film-developed wedding photographs by Wanda Orme to her…

EIGHT HUNDRED GUESTS from the art, fashion and entertainment industries flew in from all over the world for the ninth annual Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) Art + Film Gala. Held on November 2, the evening saw the likes of Billie Eilish, Leonardo DiCaprio, Salma Hayek and Naomi Campbell walk the carpet dressed in Gucci, which presented the event. The guests of honour at this year’s gala were renowned African American artist Betye Saar and Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón. Saar, 93, wore a flowing Gucci gown with her hair elegantly tied back around a black velvet turban with a diamond-encrusted ‘eye’ pendant which was designed by Neil Lane, her date for the evening. Earlier last month, The New Yorker described Saar as “one of the most significant philosopher-artists…

In a travel ordeal that could fluster even the most unflappable of parents, James Van Der Beek and his wife, Kimberly, faced an 11-hour delay while on their way home to Los Angeles from a cross-country vacation with their five young children. But rather than despair at the cancelled flight or a 4am layover, the veteran actor focused on his youngest daughter, Gwendolyn, who was a year old at the time. “She was upset, and I took her out of her seat and put her on me, and she stopped crying,” James recalls, tearing up. “In that moment I realised, I’m good at this. Regardless of everything careerwise or what job comes next, this young beautiful soul needed her dad, and I can be there for her. Everything else…

Living in Australia and surviving a long, hot summer goes hand in hand with days outdoors and lots of visits to the beach and pool. We all know the importance of covering up and applying SPF on our skin when venturing outside, but it is not as widely promoted for our hair. Just like the skin, our hair can suffer quickly from dehydration, leading it to become weak and brittle. This is exacerbated when you add in salt, chlorine and extra sun exposure, which leads to hair breakage and a huge compromise on colour treated strands. Evo technical and product specialist Melissa Chaplin shares her hot hair tips to make you the mane attraction this summer. Can hair get sunburnt? Technically the hair can’t be sunburnt, but the sun can…

“Mindful drinking is an international movement and living well doesn’t mean cutting things out of your life, but instead building on all the good things – like enjoying a good quality drink in moderation,” says Carissa Walford, actress and TV presenter. Hot on the heels of the mindful drinking movement is Camille Vidal, founder of La Maison Wellness and host of the St-Germain Wellness Weekend. Vidal has created a cocktail that is said to help boost gut health. Using St-Germain – an elderflower liqueur – her refreshing Holy Wood Spritz includes Kombucha and makes a low alcohol cocktail that means you can sip away, still feel great the next day and potentially not even feel bloated! RECIPE: Simply mix 40ml Palo Santo infused St-Germain, 60ml Ginger and Lemon Kombucha, 40ml…

The Australian actress fights for her life in horror movie The Furies (out now), which sees a group of women hunted in the bush by an array of armed and masked killers. What interested you about The Furies? I liked the journey of a passive to active character. It felt like quite a human thing to explore, as a lot of shy people are sometimes just preserving themselves. How high is your tolerance for horror? Have you made it all the way through this movie? I have seen the film a few times and still find it pretty irksome. I suppose that is part of it. I don’t know if my tolerance is particularly high. I’m a fairly reactive person and find myself falling for jump scares – really predictable…

If you took Criminal Minds, The Silence of the Lambs and House, and put them in a blender, you would end up with something like this new procedural about Malcolm Bright (Payne), the son of a serial killer, who uses his unrivalled ability to tap into the mind of a murderer to bring criminals to justice. When we meet Malcolm, he’s working for the FBI as a profiler (there’s the Criminal Minds similarity), but is kicked out of the bureau because of his tendency to not follow the rules (hello, House). Hired by a contact (Lou Diamond Phillips) at the NYPD as a consultant, he finds himself working on a copycat murder case. The person the killer is copying? Malcolm’s dad (Sheen), who assumes a Hannibal Lecter-style mentor role in…

If you have even a passing interest in fashion, you will be aware of designer Lauren, who is the subject of this feature-length HBO documentary. Featuring interviews with Lauren and members of his family, as well as colleagues, models and fashion experts such as Anna Wintour, Very Ralph charts his career from his first steps into the industry through his decades at the forefront of American fashion (putting women in tuxedos, launching the Polo line, championing Tyson Beckford) to his more recent years as an elder statesman of the industry. It’s a fairly gentle, congratulatory watch, but a well-produced one. (Airs Wed., Nov. 13 at 8.30pm; Fox Showcase)…

Tom Carruso has escaped his demanding day to day heading up the family business for a holiday in Thailand when he meets Alice Pryce and falls, almost instantly, in love. What happens next should be simple, except  both are carrying the burden of past events which still haunt them and threaten to curtail any future they might have together. Tom has never got over the disappearance of Lizzie Burdett, his first unrequited love, and with the inquest into her possible death looming, he has to face traumatic memories that implicate someone close. Meanwhile, in the aftermath of her father’s imprisonment, Alice has fled Australia to find safety. Blending a love story with psychological suspense and family drama, this is a dark and satisfying whodunit. (Out now)…

IN JULY LAST YEAR DEMI LOVATO suffered a near-fatal drug overdose, breaking a long stint of sobriety and forcing her into rehab for two months to try and overcome her long-running demons once and for all. Now the singer has broken her silence on her path to recovery, speaking at the Teen Vogue Summit about how she came out the other side from her latest relapse. “I think it’s been a very introspective year for me,” she admits. “I’ve been through a lot.” The 27-year-old has always been upfront about her battles, having first been treated back in 2010 for bipolar disorder, bulimia, self-harm and addiction. But despite her candour, Lovato admits she has struggled with what others have said about her. “What a lot of people don’t realise is…

JUST A MONTH AGO SHE revealed herself as‘the alien’ in hit series The Masked Singer, but Nikki Webster was hiding the heartbreak that she’d recently been a victim of domestic violence. The darling of the Sydney Olympics, 32, had been assaulted by her estranged husband, Matthew McMah, outside her dance studio in Leichhardt, NSW. Details emerged on November 1 after court documents were obtained by the press. They revealed that the couple, who have two children, became embroiled in a heated exchange on June 8 when McMah, 39, pulled up and Webster leaned into the car window. A police report states that he“began slowly rolling the car forward a short distance and stopped”. He then instructed her to close the door before getting out of the driver’s seat and forcibly…

ACCORDING TO ANTHONY BOZZA’S new biography Not Afraid: The Evolution of Eminem, the 15-time Grammy-winning rapper Eminem, born Marshall Mathers, developed an addiction to prescription drugs that first sent him to rehab in 2005. “My routine was Ambien at first, but then Valium or anything else to get me to sleep, and then basically Vicodin to get me through my day,” he told Bozza in 2009. In the book, a sequel to Bozza’s 2003 bestseller Whatever You Say I Am: The Life and Times of Eminem, the rapper says he became hooked on opiates and benzodiazepines after the murder of his friend DeShaun (Proof) Holton in 2006. The biography reportedly outlines that he took up to 30 Vicodin a day and some 40 to 60 Valium per day before switching…

Hollywood pretty boy Rob Lowe was partying at Club Rio, an upscale Atlanta night spot on July 17, 1988. In town to support Democratic presidential candidate Michael Dukakis, Lowe was, at the time, one of Hollywood’s biggest heartthrobs following the hit films St Elmo’s Fire, Youngblood and About Last Night. As the music pulsed, two women caught his eye, and the three of them ended up having sex in his room at the Atlanta Hilton. They even let him film the steamy encounter. But what Lowe didn’t realise was that one of the girls, Lena Jan Parsons, was only 16. The age of consent in the state at the time was 14, but it was illegal to film sex with anyone under 18. When the tape was leaked, all hell…

A woman whose ‘dying’ daughter pulled a community’s heartstrings as she fulfilled a series of ‘bucket list’ wishes has now been charged with her murder. Kelly Turner, 41, was arrested last week in connection with the 2017 death of Olivia Gant, 7, and accused of inventing her illnesses and deliberately making her sick. The mum from Denver, Colorado, had claimed Olivia had been diagnosed with a digestive disorder that caused intestinal failure. On a GoFundMe page she launched – which raised $33,000 – she wrote that Olivia was born prematurely and suffered from autism, seizure disorder and a brain tumour. The family became well known locally as the youngster enjoyed a series of last wishes, including riding in a police patrol car and spraying water on a fire as a…

Before signing up with Catalyst PHD she was out of shape and unhappy. “I’d trained with Jeff [Laurence] at Catalyst PHD before and I knew if I wanted to lose weight, transform my body and become fit, I needed his help!” Sitting at a desk every day had left Jacqui inactive and depressed.“I was doing no more than 3000 steps per day and no exercise.” Fortunately her boss, who saw how depressed she was, hired her a work coach.“The coach was my starting point in helping me find my confidence again, and to step up and out.” That initial career coaching was the kickstart…

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY S10 This season (starts Thu., Nov. 7 at 1.30pm; Arena and streams on hayu), Teresa Giudice faces cheating rumours, Melissa Gorga prepares for her 40th and Jackie Goldschneider discusses her eating disorder. SEA OF SHADOWS Documentaries aren’t often described as thrilling, but that is the best way to talk about this film executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio. Sea of Shadows (airs Sun., Nov. 10 at 7.30pm (AEST); National Geographic) follows the high-tech fight to save the world’s most endangered whale, the vaquita, from cartels of poachers, who are also putting at risk other forms of marine life with their illegal activity.

Did the world really need yet another adaptation of H.G. Wells’ sci-fi novel about aliens from Mars attacking? In 2019, two separate series of The War of the Worlds have been produced. This British retelling, unlike the Steven Spielberg film from 2005, sticks roughly to the source material’s era, set in the early 1900s as lovers George (Spall) and Amy (Eleanor Tomlinson) defy societal norms to live together despite not being married – he’s got a wife from whom he wants a divorce. The couple’s romantic woes jar with the alien invasion plot – who cares if you’re living in sin when giant machines are wiping out villages? (Starts Thu., Nov. 7 at 7.30pm; Fox One)…

After a decade-long gap between albums, the 38-year-old singer-songwriter returns with her latest, Back to Love (out Fri., Nov. 8), and tells WHO about the song … … that is her earliest musical memory ‘Still Got the Blues’ by Gary Moore. My father was rehearsing it for a gig. … she first learned all the words to I have absolutely no idea!

Monkey see, monkey do. … that reminds her of summer holidays Anything Eagles! … that brings back memories of her first love ‘I Love You Always Forever’ by Donna Lewis. I can’t listen to the song anymore because they aren’t the best of memories. Awkward! … that inspired her…

The Irish trio are known for their passionate music, and that’s especially the case with this sixth album, which comes after singer Danny O’Donoghue broke up with his girlfriend, and he and another band member lost a parent. The Script poured their pain into their songs – and it shows. That’s not to say Sunset & Full Moons is full of morose tracks. Stirring and emotional, yes, but often inspirational and uplifting. Musically, they maintain their established pop/rock sound with the usual scattered influences from other genres like hip-hop. Bound to more than satisfy the faithful. (Out Fri., Nov. 8)…

DATING Singer Halsey has confirmed she’s dating American Horror Story actor Evan Peters during an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Halsey, 25, was caught off guard when Ellen DeGeneres brought up the subject of her relationship with Peters, 32, and mid-interview a crew member in a long black wig jumped out to scare her. “You distracted me with the boyfriend question,” Halsey said, adding: “I don’t know what’s scarier though … having to talk about my boyfriend on TV or having that happen? It was a double whammy.” SPLITS Reality television star Brody Jenner, 36, has reportedly split from his Victoria’s Secret model girlfriend, Josie Canseco, 22.

He popped the question at California’s Joshua Tree National Park while the couple were on holiday. “I’ve been happy crying for 2 hours,” Origliasso, 34, wrote on Instagram. “I’ve never felt so full.” Carlton posted to his own Instagram account to share their happy news, tagging Origliasso and writing, “Here’s to a lifetime of love and memories. Thanks for being in my life.” In June, Carlton confirmed he identified as “trans male”. “Maybe I just don’t say it that much because I don’t see a reason to really say it socially,” he said. “But I’m a trans male, so that’s why I am prideful.”…
