JUL. 14, 2025 ISSUE 1996 If anyone deserves to revel in an overdue renaissance, surely it’s Pamela Anderson. Once the butt of sexist jokes, she’s finally getting the respect she deserves – both for her talent and her grace (page 38). Also enjoying a comeback is Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi, whose battle with Tourette syndrome made him unable to finish his set at Glastonbury Festival in 2023. His return to the stage at this year’s festival was met with tears and thousands upon thousands of fans singing ‘Someone You Loved’ (page 16). Anna Wintour is stepping back from US Vogue but who will fill her shoes? We take a look at her career and the contenders to step into her role (page 18). Plus, Sydney-based model Jess Lucey shares what…

In a hugely controversial move similar to the ones made by its contestants, Australian Survivor bosses have axed host Jonathan LaPaglia. The 55-year-old, who has fronted the show since its revamp in 2016, will exit ahead of the 2026 season, but not before Survivor: Australia V The World airs in the coming weeks. According to the star, his dismissal came as a huge shock. “Australian Survivor has seen some of the most epic blindsides over the last 10 years, but this one might just be the craziest of them all … because it happened to me,” he shared in a lengthy social media statement. “I received a call from the network thanking me for all my hard work and dedication to the show but for next season they are ‘going…

Tamika Chesser, who appeared on Beauty and the Geek in 2010, has been charged with the murder of her partner. South Australian police allege that Chesser, 34, killed Julian Story at their Port Lincoln home. Emergency services were called to the couple’s Flinders Highway property on June 19 after neighbours reported a fire had broken out. Police entered the unit’s bathroom and discovered the “severely burned and disfigured” remains of Julian, according to court documents seen by NewsWire. Investigators believe he was killed around midnight on June 17. Chesser was found seated outside in a garden chair near the unit in what has been described as a “catatonic” state. She has been charged with murder, destroying remains and assaulting a police officer. She is currently being held in mental health…

The old superstition that the number 13 is bad luck has proved to be true for Holly Valance. The former Neighbours star is reported to have split from her mogul husband, Nick Candy, just months before the couple would have celebrated the milestone wedding anniversary. “This has been a very difficult period for both Nick and Holly, and they are keeping things private out of respect for their family,” a friend of the pair told British newspaper The Sun. “They’ve had to juggle a demanding lifestyle. Between family, public life and Nick’s intense work commitments, it’s been a tough balance.” The couple share two daughters, Luka, 11, and Nova, 7. “The joint parenting of their two amazing daughters remains their top priority,” the source added. Of course, figuring out how…

During her June 10 performance of The Lifetimes Tour in Sydney, Katy Perry fuelled rumours that her long-term relationship with Orlando Bloom was on the rocks while indulging in a local sweet treat. “This song is about a break-up,” she said, taking a bite after singing her single ‘I’m Still Breathing’. “And this Tim Tam saved me.” Two weeks later, it was confirmed that the couple had called it quits. “Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,” a source close to the pair told Us Weekly. “It’s not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.” Days before the confirmation, Bloom, 48, was spotted in Perth spending solo…

SHANNEN DOHERTY 1971–2024 Surrounded by family and friends and her beloved German Shepherd, Bowie, at home in Malibu, Shannen Doherty died from Stage IV cancer at age 53 on July 13, 2024, after first being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. “In the last few hours, she was in a place where she was very comfortable and sleeping and transitioning, and she was surrounded by some of her very close friends,” her friend and doctor, Lawrence D. Piro, told People magazine in November. “It was sombre and sad, but beautiful and loving. The hardest thing about this was that she wasn’t ready to leave because she loved life.” For those left behind, honouring the star in sad and happy moments is part of the healing process. On April 12, her…

CRIME SCENE While Murdoch has maintained his innocence, his DNA was found on Joanne’s T-shirt and inside the Kombi she and Peter were driving that night. A friend of the killer also testified that he changed his appearance around that time. Almost 24 years after Peter Falconio vanished without a trace, the man who took his life looks set to take the secret of his whereabouts with him to the grave. Reports have emerged that Bradley John Murdoch, who was diagnosed with terminal throat cancer in 2019, has recently been moved from prison in Alice Springs to palliative care. With the 67-year-old convicted killer continuing to refuse to shed any light on the events of the night he shot Peter and tried to abduct his girlfriend, Joanne Lees, authorities are…

“I influencer Jess Lucey reflects on remember it being humiliating – it was such a painful experience.” When Sydney-based model and her early experiences with fashion, she’s transported back to her teen years standing inside the walls of Supré, a staple of Aussie youth fashion. Even as a teenager, Lucey, now 32, sensed the unspoken rules that governed this space – an initiation met with feelings of exclusion and discomfort. “I didn’t ever have the change room experience that my friends did. I would always have to sit and watch them try the clothes on. That was really disheartening,” Lucey recalls. “I remember once I bought a stretchy belt just so I could get the Supré bag and fit in at school.” Like many individuals who don’t fit in the…

Harry Styles may not have taken to the stage at Glastonbury this year, but he’s still caused quite a stir. The singer was caught in a hot and heavy make-out session with a woman now identified as producer Ella Kenny. The two were recorded on the dance floor locking lips while swaying to music in the VIP bar at the festival. It’s not known if the two knew each other before the night, but fans have noticed that the 31-year-old music star isn’t following Kenny on Instagram. “They had a good time in the moment but it doesn’t mean it will evolve into anything. They just got on and had a snog,” a source told The Sun. “But she seems like a normal, downto-earth girl, which is different from some…

Music superstar Beyoncé was left hanging on for dear life at the Houston stop of her Cowboy Carter tour on June 28 when the prop she was performing on malfunctioned. The singer, 43, was performing ’16 Carriages’ for her hometown crowd when the vintage car, which was suspended by ropes, tilted before coming to a complete stop mid-air. The mother-of-three had just finished the first verse of the song when the incident occurred. “Stop, stop, stop, stop,” she was heard crying before her crew worked to lower the vehicle. “Tonight in Houston, at NRG Stadium, a technical mishap caused the flying car, a prop Beyoncé uses to circle the stadium, and see her fans up close, to tilt,” her production company, Parkwood, shared. But the singer didn’t let fans down,…

ALL THE FEELS “Second time’s a charm on this one, everybody,” a visibly emotional Capaldi told the crowd after he took to the stage unannounced at Glastonbury. He wasn’t the only one with tears in his eyes, with the crowd caught up in the emotion, too. The crowd roared when Lewis Capaldi walked out onto the main stage at the Glastonbury Festival on June 27, but it wasn’t the usual cheer you’d hear from the thousands of music lovers. Instead, the 28-year-old received a deafening reception filled with emotion for his return appearance to the Pyramid Stage. Two years earlier, it was on that same stage that Capaldi, who was diagnosed with Tourette syndrome in 2022, suffered a paralysing attack. He left the stage part-way through his act and stepped…

SIMPLE SITCOM Romano told People he “forced” himself to watch the show. “Twenty years ago, I was quite critical of it … Being removed from it now, I appreciated it,” he mused. “I was able to say, ‘You know what, we did something pretty good.’” The concept was simple: a sportswriter, his stay-athome wife and their three children live across the road from his overbearing parents. But the laughs this set-up produced from 1996 to 2005 quickly cemented Everybody Loves Raymond as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. That’s why fans have been longing for a reboot two decades on. But alas, Patricia Heaton who played Debra Barone opposite Ray Romano’s Ray Barone for all nine seasons recently nipped talk of such a reprisal in the bud –…

Crown Princess Victoria When Crown Princess Victoria ascends the throne following the death of King Carl Gustaf, she will be Sweden’s first Queen Regnant since 1720. But this wasn’t always expected to be the case – when her little brother, Prince Carl Philip, was born in May 1979, he sat above her in the line of succession. But in 1980, a law change saw Sweden remove the preference for male primogeniture in a move the King called “quite strange” in 2023. Princess Estelle Sweden won’t just have one Queen but two in a row, with Crown Princess Victoria’s 13-year-old daughter, Princess Estelle, sitting directly behind her in line for the throne. The teenager is about to start Year 7, which is still part of primary school in her country. She…

When Deborra-lee Furness and Hugh Jackman first announced their separation in 2023, it seemed like the blueprint for a graceful split. “We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth,” they said in a joint statement. At the time, it read like a mutual, dignified parting. But as with anything in life – and love – there’s often another side to the story. Two years on, Furness called the split a “journey of betrayal”, hinting it was less than civil behind the scenes. The couple have now officially filed for divorce. So what happens when a seemingly amicable split turns ugly? We asked family…

First, it was glazed doughnut skin, then it was glass skin, and now the latest skin trend on #BeautyTok has us, well, reflecting. Say hello to mirror skin, the buzzy K-beauty skin trend where users flaunt a perfectly shiny visage that is borderline reflective. And while it’s similar to the glass skin trend, which focuses on clarity and hydration, mirror skin offers a more polished finish. “Mirror skin is all about achieving a complexion that is so smooth and poreless that it almost is reflective, like a mirror,” says Kate Sowden, nurse and co-founder of Brisbane-based beauty clinic BeautyFULL Cosmetic Medical Clinic. “The focus is on ultra-refined skin texture combined with a high level of luminosity, without bordering onto greasy.” Bear in mind, none of this is about makeup or…

She might currently be on parental leave with baby Sanna, but television presenter Narelda Jacobs couldn’t pass up the opportunity to get involved in SBS and NITV’s cheeky new series, Big Backyard Quiz. “It’s a game show like you’ve never seen before!” the 49-year-old tells WHO. The show’s premiere coincides with NAIDOC Week, a chance for everyone, Jacobs explains, “to celebrate and enhance and put a spotlight on First Nations issues and people”. “It is great to see the celebrations expand every year,” she adds. This show is quite different to presenting the news. Why did you decide to get involved? It’s more than light entertainment, it is also educational and it holds a mirror to Australia. It’s a show where we learn about Blak excellence. We learn that white…

Just as many eyes were on the stands as the courts when play got underway at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on June 30. Celebrities turned out in force to watch the first day of play at Wimbledon. Sir David Beckham treated his mother, Sandra, to front-row seats in the very exclusive and invite-only Royal Box. “Tradition with Mum ... Nothing better,” the soccer great, 50, captioned a snap of them on Instagram. The pair watched as defending champion Carlos Alcaraz of Spain took on Italy’s Fabio Fognini. Alcaraz emerged as the victor after four hours and 37 minutes of play during England’s soaring heatwave. “Today I did it, even though Fabio was playing great tennis,” Alcaraz said following the very close match. Keeping cool in the…

A50-year-old South London man who has repeatedly stalked and harassed singer Cheryl Cole has admitted to breaching the restraining order taken out by the star against him. The harassment started in January 2024, when Daniel Bannister showed up at Cole’s house, resulting in his arrest and a three-year restraining order. He has since breached the restraining order on multiple occasions and been sentenced to jail each time. The court heard that Cole “immediately panicked” when she saw him outside her home as she feared for the safety of her 8-yearold son, Bear, who she shared with the late Liam Payne. “I was in a state of alarm and shock,” she said in a statement read to the court. Bannister was previously jailed for 30 months in 2012 over the manslaughter…

Almost four decades after she took the helm of US Vogue, Dame Anna Wintour is ending her extraordinary era as the publication’s editor-in-chief. In a staff meeting on June 26, the 75-year-old revealed her departure – announcing she was stepping back to prioritise her role as chief content officer of publisher Condé Nast, a position she was appointed to in 2020. “Anybody in a creative field knows how essential it is never to stop growing in one’s work,” Wintour told Vogue staff. “When I became the editor of Vogue, I was eager to prove to all who might listen that there was a new, exciting way to imagine an American fashion magazine. Now, I find that my greatest pleasure is helping the next generation of impassioned editors storm the field…

On June 22, Cruz Beckham, 20, posted a TikTok video of himself playing the guitar and performing his song ‘For Ya Love’. “Cruz Beckham dropping a sick indie/Brit pop banger was not on my 2025 bingo card but here we are!” commented one user. “Imagine this live during a festival! Instant chills.” Aside from the love, a snarkier comment – this time from Cruz – raised eyebrows. “Are you going to stick with this job or going to become a race car driver next or something?” a commenter asked, to which Cruz responded: “Wrong brother mate.” The swipe was immediately perceived as a dig at his oldest brother, Brooklyn, 26, whose eclectic career path has seen him move from football to photography to cooking and, earlier this year, racing. What…

Sienna Miller & Chadwick Boseman Miller once said she was left “embarrassed” after asking for higher salaries, to no avail. But everything changed when she signed on to play opposite the late Boseman in 2019 crime thriller 21 Bridges. After he passed away in 2020, she told Empire how her co-star reallocated a portion of his salary to ensure she was paid equally. “It is unfathomable to imagine another man in that town behaving that graciously or respectfully,” the 43-yearold explained. “It was about the most astounding thing that I’ve experienced. That kind of thing just doesn’t happen. He said, ‘You’re getting paid what you deserve, and what you’re worth.’” Miller suggested that despite Boseman’s activism in the face of blatant sexism, she wasn’t sure others had his moral compass.…

Scan to shop or visit babasmilk.com FEAR NOT Lepa’s top business advice is not to overthink or be scared to jump in and get started. She also suggests seeking out people you aspire to be like and asking them questions. “What’s the worst that can happen?” she says. “I’ve learnt to take action.” At her job in fraud at Centrelink, Lepa Flaiban used to get death threats. Sitting at a desk all day and worrying someone would be waiting for her outside did not make for a comfortable career. And after 10 years at this job, her heart was not in it. “I trained as a chef and I always had this idea that I’d open something that would cater for events. But with life, stress and small kids, I…

Peace of mind. Hardly a problematic concept in a world that can offer so little of it. But what if that peace of mind comes at a significant physical and financial cost? For women undergoing the process of freezing their eggs, this is often part of the narrative – a promise of future security, of buying time and taking control over an unpredictable biological clock. And for many, it delivers exactly that. Recently, however, the demographic choosing to freeze their eggs has shifted, with more women in their twenties opting for the procedure to safeguard their fertility. According to Dr Tessa Copp, a researcher at the University of Sydney specialising in women’s reproductive health, the sudden spike is being driven by broader societal and economic pressures, along with a lack…

Turns out, sometimes your mum’s advice can only get you so far. That’s why we sat down with Raymond Rozema, stylist and education manager at NAK Hair, who breaks down the art of hair-washing strand by strand. Sorry, Mum. PICKING THE PERFECT PRODUCT Choosing the right shampoo and conditioner can feel overwhelming, but it’s arguably the most important step. Rozema recommends opting for high-quality products tailored to your hair type and concerns. The right duo will effectively cleanse your scalp of oil and build-up while leaving your hair feeling refreshed and manageable for styling. “It’s important…

ARIES MAR. 20–APR. 18 Think good and it will be good. Otherwise, there’s a risk you’re going to start feeling fenced in by life – like there’s no wriggle room. The good news is that there’s a solution. It’s up to you to train your brain to look for ways to escape from any corners you’ve painted yourself into. You’ll find it! CANCER JUN. 21–JUL. 21 Commiting to your dreams is what you need to do this week. The way to overcome any major work dramas is to buckle down, but also start thinking about what inspires you professionally. If the answer is “absolutely nothing”, then it might even be time for you to see if you can create a new source of income. LIBRA SEP. 23–OCT. 22 Relationships aren’t…

Felicity Ward As one of Australia’s most popular comedians, Felicity Ward sure knows a thing or two about landing a punchline. From her debut at the Melbourne Fringe Festival in 2008 and selling out shows in the years that followed, to appearances on Spicks and Specks and her more recent role in the Aussie version of The Office, the 44-year-old has been making audiences laugh on stage and screen for years. And while the past few weeks have proved she also knows how to land a pretty damn good paso doble, the Dancing with the Stars contestant admits both her body and her ego have taken quite the beating while boogieing around the dance floor with her on-screen partner, Aric Yegudkin. Here, she chats to WHO about her “angel” co-stars…
