Celeste Barber became one of the unlikely heroes of the Australian bushfire crisis in January when her fundraiser was the largest in Facebook’s history. Despite having a target of $30,000, Barber raked in more than $51 million from more than 1.3 million people worldwide. The 38-year-old nominated the NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) and Brigades Donation Fund to receive the funds but many – including Celeste herself – hoped the “unprecedented amount” could be split across other organisations. This week, the NSW Supreme Court ruled that the money cannot be used beyond the RFS, but Barber was thankful that, “where it is going, is going to make such a difference”. “Turns out studying acting at university does not make me a lawmaker,” she quipped in a statement after the ruling.…

On May 22, Kim Kardashian West posted two Instagram snaps of herself posing on a Stairmaster machine wearing a blonde wig, a cheetah-print bikini and a chunky pair of ‘Dad’Yeezy sneakers, captioning the glam shots “Quarantine Workout”. Taking to her Instagram story the next day, the star gave a little more insight into what her six-day-a-week, 90-minute sweat sessions with trainer Melissa Alcantara actually look like! The svelte star starts with 20 minutes of cardio, then dives into weightlifting intervals, combining three to four movements, and repeating them three times before moving to her next set. But despite her hard work, reactions to the results of Kardashian West’s plant-based diet and weightlifting efforts have copped criticism. Days earlier, after the 39-year-old shared a picture of herself in a bra and…

It was predicted that divorce would be on the rise during the COVID-19 lockdown and in Hollywood it seems the latest couple to fall victim are Jaime King and Kyle Newman. On May 19, the Hart of Dixie actress stepped out in Santa Monica looking downcast and distressed, just one day after she filed for divorce from her husband of 13 years and was granted a temporary restraining order against him. The couple are “taking time apart” As she ran errands wearing a tight black top, King, 41, was looking slimmer than ever, sparking fears for her wellbeing after it was reported that the actress – who has been quarantining in California away from Newman, 44 – had also filed a domestic violence petition, alleging she has suffered verbal, emotional…

As The Voice Australia (airing Sun., 7pm; Mon.-Wed., 7.30pm, on the Nine Network) ramps up for what’s set to be another hit season – albeit with a few changes this year, thanks to COVID-19 – mentor Kelly Rowland got on the phone with WHO direct from the kitchen of the LA home she shares with hubby Tim Weatherspoon and their 5-year-old son, Titan. And, yes – the 39-year-old singer confirms she will be heading back Down Under as soon as she can! You and your husband must do the long-distance thing a lot with your careers. What has it been like being in isolation together? He has his career and I have mine – we’re both busy. I think that it’s taken both of us some getting used to being…

She’s shown off her rom-com likeability in films such as Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates and the Pitch Perfect franchise, but Anna Kendrick is following in the footsteps of the famous Sarah Jessica Parker for her next big job. The pint-sized actress takes on the starring role in her first TV show, Love Life, an anthology series about the journey from first love to true love. Kendrick plays Darby, a 20-something, very single protagonist who’s desperate to find love in New York City, but can’t quite figure out the winning formula. Witty, raw and very candid about the search to find ‘The One’ in 2020, the series is already drawing parallels to the groundbreaking Girls and the original single-girls-in-the-Big-Apple sitcom, Sex and the City. It’s not surprising that Love…

In the late hours of May 31, a young man wearing a black hoodie and a grey Puma cap was caught on camera stumbling out of popular bar Cheeky Monkey’s in beachside Byron Bay. He hasn’t been seen since, and one year on, there are still no real answers to the question: What happened to Theo Hayez? Police have confessed to being “baffled” by the case of the missing Belgian backpacker, who was due to finish his gap year of travelling and head home to his family in Europe the following week. The official theory is that the 18-year-old got lost trying to find his way back to the WakeUp! Hostel and, tragically fell, from the cliffs into the ocean below. But his family don’t believe he was alone when…

It’s great to catch up with old friends, but that doesn’t mean you want them to stick around forever. After all, life goes on, people drift apart and once you’ve caught up on their news, you may not need to see them again for another five or 10 years. The same is true of TV shows. The thought of a sequel series to a show you used to love might seem like a great idea, but more often than not, a one-off reunion special would do nicely. In this era of reboots and revivals, the sequel series is fairly common. It picks up with the same characters played (mostly) by the same actors the requisite number of years later. But for me, there has to be a good reason for…

Her last show, Nanette, propelled her to international fame as a result of its reinterpretation of stand-up and disarming, brutal honesty. Douglas, which has also been filmed for a Netflix special, is a very different type of performance – Gadsby jokes that she’s all out of trauma – but it’s one that is equally original. And yes, there are more laughs. In fact, in the designated joke section, the gags come at a furious rate. Indeed, not only does Gadsby have a part of the show reserved specifically for jokes, but at the very beginning of Douglas, she explains exactly how her routine is going to play out – a prelude which is incredibly amusing in itself. And while the gags – in both the joke section and other parts…

It’s hard to believe it’s almost 20 years since hospital comedy Scrubs began. Now, stars Zach Braff and Donald Faison are as close as they and their characters were back then, so much so that they are revisiting the show that brought them together in this part re-watch, part behind-the-scenes podcast. Before tuning in to each deep dive instalment, which will often feature a guest appearance by another cast member, it pays to refresh your memory by watching the relevant episode (all seasons are on Stan). The guys get very specific.…

Ethan Browne was just finding his feet on Home and Away (Mon. to Thu., 7pm; Seven), after starting on set as Tane Parata in October last year, when production was shut down in March due to COVID-19. Although he had to hit pause on his fledgling career – this is his first role since leaving NIDA – the 28-year-old New Zealand-born actor says he’s enjoyed this time. “I used it to work on things I never really had time for and just chill out.” Here, Browne tells WHO what he thinks of his performance on the soap so far and why he hasn’t missed the gym during lockdown. What have you been doing during lockdown? I’ve been playing my guitar, reading lots of books and training twice a day in…

THIS ONE’S FOR THE PANS NEW YORK, MAY 19 Comedian Sarah Silverman did her bit while in lockdown in New York City, banging a pan with a pair of tongs in honour of the hospital workers who are risking their lives treating patients struck down with the COVID-19 virus. EASY ON THE EYE RIDER AGOURA HILLS, LA, MAY 17 Aquaman star Jason Momoa looked like his usual cool self on his ‘47 Harley Davidson. The actor recently escaped the confines of home for a ride in the LA countryside with a few pals. Room for one more, Jason? RAFTERS REUNION SYDNEY, MAY 18 Packed to the Rafters on-screen siblings and pals in real life, Jessica Marais and Hugh Sheridan, enjoyed fresh air on the famous Bondi to Bronte cliff walk…

Brown on homeschooling his children. “Dryer doesn’t work so I am hanging stuff outside like I’m living in Dr Quinn Medicine Woman times.” Kelly Clarkson on her washing routine.…

Chris Hughes & Jesy Nelson The Little Mix singer and her Love Island star beau went their separate ways in April after dating for around 16 months. A source revealed to The Sun,“Jesy and Chris split up a couple of weeks ago. It was all very amicable and they’re still really good friends.” Cara Delevingne & Ashley Benson At the beginning of May, it was revealed the Brit model and the Pretty Little Liars star had ended their two-year relationship. The split has been civil, with Delevingne even jumping to Benson’s defence over rumours she’d moved on with rapper G-Eazy.“You don’t know the truth, only her and I do and that’s exactly how it should be,” she said. Kristin Cavallari & Jay Cutler The reality star and her former American…

This year is a big one for iconic singer Mariah Carey. She’s already celebrated her 50th birthday, not to mention the 15th anniversary of her comeback album, The Emancipation of Mimi; but more importantly, June 12 marks an impressive 30 years since she entered the showbiz world as a pop singer hopeful of making the big time. With that incomparable five-octave vocal range and a flair for catchy tunes, Carey has exceeded even her own expectations over the years, notching up 18 number one singles on the US charts, releasing 15 studio albums and winning five Grammy Awards. Suffice it to say, Carey is undeniably one of the biggest, most enduring artists of all time, and she has certainly earned her infamous diva reputation and 10-person entourage – a glamorous…

I f you’re wondering how the Sedgwick-Bacon household is spending their time amid stay-at-home orders, well, they’re cleaning.“We really are,” laughs Kyra Sedgwick. The actress admits that she, husband Kevin Bacon, son Travis, 30, and daughter Sosie, 28, who are quarantining together in the family’s Los Angeles home, would rather mop and wash dishes than do jigsaw puzzles or have a games night.“When you’re fortunate and get to stay at home all day long, you make a lot of mess,” she says. One of the longest-running and most revered marriages in Hollywood, the union between Sedgwick, 54, and Bacon, 61, began on the set of the TV movie Lemon Sky in 1987. They wed the following year. Sedgwick, who started acting in her teens, was raised in New York City…

Sitting still isn’t easy for LeAnn Rimes. “I am used to being in constant motion,” says the singer, 37, who’s been performing since she was 5. “For a long time stillness felt incredibly unsafe. But I’ve done a lot of work to know that it’s OK.” That makes the current stay-at-home climate easier for her to navigate than it might have been, and it’s helped in larger ways as well. For years, keeping herself intensely busy – even through difficult personal dramas – was a way for Rimes to avoid the depression and anxiety she had struggled with for most of her life. “I had so much pain,” she says. “But I finally had to surrender and confront my feelings.” A month-long stay at a mental-health facility in 2012 started…

Pre COVID-19, there was nothing I loved more than enjoying a Friday afternoon bellini at the park with my other mum friends. Yes, yes, I know what you’re thinking. Drinking in a park? If only we could do that again! Although restrictions have eased a little, Friday afternoon bellinis and a cheese platter in the park are still a little while away. But that doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun at home. I have some simple yet impressive wine-based cocktail recipes to get you in the mood for the weekend! Enjoy!

ARIES MAR. 20–APR. 18 Push ahead with new beginnings, a project, interest or career changes. Romance needs deeper communication to clear past problems and new emotional plans may require a change of thinking or mood. Personal achievements, good management and budgeted work around the home is called for. A family mix-up creates turmoil; avoid impatience when trying to negotiate. TAURUS APR. 19–MAY 20 If you don’t understand what is being said, listen more carefully. Domestic matters require compromise with family finances – expenses may be getting out of hand. Pay all your bills, check joint accounts and balance the books. Discreet investigatory tactics may be needed. Work-wise, all will go to plan. Coping with any added responsibilities will be easy. GEMINI MAY 21–JUN. 20 Build new friendships or renew old…

When Hannah meets Sonny, sparks fly. But the next time they see each other, he’s like a different person – withdrawn, miserable and apparently uninterested in her. Their paths cross again and again, and a tentative, then all-encompassing friendship develops. They realise they’re probably the perfect match, except Sonny has sworn off relationships while he works on unravelling issues from his past. Meanwhile, Hannah has a deeply held secret of her own which could nix any chance of a romantic happy ending unless she opens up. What starts out as a light and romantic read turns into something far weightier until the final tear-soaked page. (Out now)…

Showing off her fresh “bronde” tresses, shimmery tan and slimmed-down limbs, Khloé Kardashian caused a stir on social media when she debuted her new lockdown look on May 22. “location: under bitches skiiiinnnnn,” she captioned the series of Instagram pics, pre-empting the avalanche of reactions from her 111 million followers. “My GORGEOUS Girl!!!!!! WOW !!!” commented her mum Kris Jenner, while her ex, Tristan Thompson – who has been in lockdown with the star and their 2-year-old daughter True – commented “Baddie.” However, waves of other social media commenters pointed out the star’s dramatically slimmed-down jawline, with many suspecting there was more than just a new ’do at play. “When Tristan said ‘let’s see other people’ Khloé made a quick call to her favourite surgeon,” wrote one. “If Khloé Kardashian…

“It’s a really good mix of people and great personality types this year” Even in the middle of a pandemic, Sonia Kruger must be one of Australia’s hardest-working showbiz stars. Since the beginning of the year, the bubbly host has been in a world of Big Brother, filming for the anticipated 2020 relaunch of the reality show (starts Mon., Jun. 8 at 7.30pm on Seven). When she hasn’t been on set, she’s been on mum  duty at home with her 5-year-old daughter Maggie, or filming dance and workout videos for her Strictly You fitness website. Then there’s the new gig as a judge on Australia’s Got Talent, that’s yet to commence filming. But busy as she sounds, Kruger tells WHO she’s been relishing the extra downtime that’s come with the…

It was sexy and cute and popular to boot, but Bring It On wasn’t your typical high school movie about prom date debacles or dramatic teen romances. Starring Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union as the captains of two rival cheerleading teams who battle it out for top spot at the national championships, Bring It On was the first major motion picture to delve into the world of competitive cheerleading. Using comedy, unforgettable one-liners and plenty of heart while skilfully delving into themes of race, homophobia and social inequality, the movie managed to top the box office while also communicating a deeper message. “It’s got the comedic aspect, a believable romance and a lot of underlying messages that kind of tie the whole thing together,” Dunst told The Guardian in 2000.…

Addressing the public twice in the past two months, Queen Elizabeth displayed many of the hallmarks of her remarkable 68-year reign: steady leadership, a stiff upper lip, and a three-strand pearl necklace. But there was also something different about these remarks – like much of the world, she is in isolation, the vulnerability of her age making it crucial that she shelters in place amid the coronavirus pandemic. Yes, her shelter is extraordinary – the 1000-year-old Windsor Castle – but as an eminent witness to nine decades of history, she drew upon her personal experience of enduring tumultuous times to reassure her listeners. Speaking on May 8 – the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII in Europe – she noted, “At the start, the outlook seemed bleak, the end…

Rolling up her sleeves in WWII When she turned 18, the then-Princess Elizabeth did her wartime duty and joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service. She trained as a truck mechanic and driver. She was later promoted to the rank of honorary junior commander. Mourning her mother and sister Her mother, also Elizabeth, known affectionately as the Queen Mum, died within two months of the Queen’s sister Margaret in 2002. Shots fired during trooping In 1981 the Queen stayed cool when a troubled teen fired blanks at her and her horse. She continued with the Trooping the Colour parade. The COVID-19 crisis From isolation, the Queen praised health workers and the strength of her people in a rare televised speech on April 5. Witness to history On May 8, 1945, Elizabeth (far…

Are you constantly looking at a screen, with little to no downtime except for when you sleep? Whether you’re working from home or bingeing Netflix series after series (or both), your eyes are paying a price. Dark circles and dehydrated, puffy skin around the delicate eye area are in dire need of some extra care. An eye cream is an essential step in your routine. Always apply to a cleansed face, gently in patting motions, starting with the skin under the tear duct and working outwards to the temple and up. Try some of these new formulas, all of which can be purchased online and shipped to your door. With a 30 per cent hyaluronic complex, this gel formula leaves the eye area plump and lifted. A multi-tasking formula that…

Jen Fontaine works with some of Australia’s most beloved acts and spends her time travelling between her offices in LA and Sydney. WHO caught up with Jen to find out how she keeps grounded and maintains her healthy lifestyle while on-the-go. Lifting weights overhauled my body Nearly two years ago, I was going through a lot personally, and I started a much more disciplined resistance weightlifting program at Ultimate Performance in LA and Sydney. It’s a very challenging, personalised program, coupled with a meal plan and progression with BMI testing. There was no hiding. It was a complete lifestyle overhaul. The way I train now I am reworking that training again with my trainer Jiani Mazza, who is truly a master trainer. We work via online training when I am…

It is hard to believe a couple of months ago, I wrote a feature on overtourism and the benefits of second-city travel. In a bid to curb visitor numbers in some of the world’s most-loved destinations and reduce the strain on infrastructure and the threat to the cities’ culture and heritage, travellers were being urged to consider similar but lesser-known alternatives. Now, in the midst of a global pandemic, few industries have been hit as hard as tourism. If the lockdowns and restrictions on nonessential travel continue, the World Travel and Tourism Council estimates a total global loss of 75 million jobs and $3.2 trillion in revenue. While we are living in limbo with no discernible end in sight, many of us are keen to experience the joy of travel…

The singer and actress, 34, stars in Season 2 of Homecoming (now on Amazon Prime Video) and tells WHO about the last … … road trip she took That was a drive-by to see my niece. She’s 4 months old, and we can’t hug her or anything because of the pandemic, so we just blew her kisses and told her we loved her. … time she felt empowered When I figured out how to slick down my baby hairs! I have a lot of new growth from my braids. I was able to make a fine-looking baby hair swoop. … bet she made I was playing basketball in the kitchen with these napkins I was throwing in the trash can, and somebody bet me that I couldn’t make it.

The four-time Emmy winner, 56, plays the title character in Tommy (starts Wed., Jun. 3 at 8.30pm; Ten), about a high-ranking New York City cop who becomes LA’s first female police chief. You look pretty bad-ass in this role. It’s just the uniform, man. Anybody would. It’s pretty fancy. It’s also very heavy. I’m carrying a lot of artillery, so it took some getting used to. Why did you want to play a female police chief on a crime procedural? The sexism seems so foreign to her because it’s not the world she grew up in. She grew up with cops, and I don’t know that she ever really thought of herself as anything other than that. A cop is a cop. As a divorced lesbian, does she face any…

ARROW “It was big and exciting, and being a comic book [adaptation], it had a massive in-built fanbase,” De Gouw says of playing The Huntress. “All the fans knew much more about the character than I ever did – and still do.” DRACULA “The first day on set there was massive drama because the British executives and the American executives could not decide what Dracula should look like,” she recalls. “There were just so many voices.” THE CROWN In Season 3, De Gouw portrayed Lucy Lindsay-Hogg, who was involved with Princess Margaret’s (Helena Bonham Carter) husband. “That’s about as big a production as it gets,” she says. “It was a lovely job and beautiful people.” THE SECRETS SHE KEEPS De Gouw, who plays a mummy blogger, welcomed the chance to…

After an eight-week shutdown, production on Home and Away resumed this week. “A range of measures will be in place to minimise risk for cast and crew … [including] temperature checks on arrival, increased hygiene practices and rigorous cleaning schedules,” a spokesperson says. “Scripts will also be reworked to reduce close contact.” For Browne, a return to work meant he had to “go and get a haircut, and I’ve shaved my beard. I grew a massive iso beard. I’d love to keep it but it’s not what the character is. And there’s continuity.”Those preparations aside, he is ready to jump back into filming. “I know they have a lot of procedures in place to keep us safe. I think we’ll be fine.”…

DIVORCE New Girl actress Zooey Deschanel, 40, has settled her divorce with estranged husband Jacob Pechenik, according to court details. Pechenik initially filed for divorce from Deschanel in October after four years of marriage. The former couple share two children, Elsie, 4, and Charlie, 3. MARRIAGE Insatiable star Debby Ryan, 27, has revealed she secretly married her fiancé Josh Dun on New Year’s Eve. “We began to flirt with the idea of having a destination party celebrating the new decade, then decided in December to get married [in Austin] on New Year’s Eve, and just keep dancing until after the ball dropped,” the former Disney actress told Vogue magazine. After a close friend died, she went on to say, it “didn’t feel important to wait any more, to stop being…

Beatles legend Paul McCartney has paid tribute to “dear friend”, photographer Astrid Kirchherr, who was a big part of the UK band’s early career and who died on May 12 in Hamburg, Germany, aged 81. “Very sad news this week about Astrid Kirchherr,” McCartney, 77, posted on his social accounts on May 21. “This brought back memories of our days in the clubs in Hamburg,” continued McCartney. The Beatles spent their early days living and playing in Hamburg before they found international fame. “Astrid looked unique. She had a short blond haircut and wore a slim black, leather outfit which made her look like a funky pixie,” he said. As well as photographing the band at the time, Kirchherr is credited with creating the group’s ‘mop-top’ hairstyles after cutting the…
