JENNIFER LOPEZ AND ALEX RODRIGUEZ HAVE been dating for only three months, but the institution called J-Rod is getting more serious. “Jennifer is on cloud nine,” says a Lopez source. “She loves sharing her life with Alex and has never seemed happier.” Lopez’s 9-year-old twins (with ex Marc Anthony), Max and Emme, and Rodriguez’s daughters (with ex Cynthia Scurtis), Natasha, 12, and Ella, 9, “all get along,” adds the source. “It’s just one huge happy family.” The baseball star, 41, has pulled out all the stops to woo his new love, 47. “He often gives her gifts with handwritten notes,” says the source. “It’s a very romantic relationship.” And should he pop the question, “no-one doubts she would say yes!”…

STROLLING AROUND NEW YORK IN a $US4,100 cashmere tracksuit from Sally LaPointe, it wasn’t just Gigi Hadid’s extravagant comfy-wear that turned heads on April 12: the cropped jumper exposed her tinier-than-ever midriff. “My metabolism actually changed like crazy this year,” the model, 22, said in December. “I have Hashimoto’s disease. It’s a thyroid disease. I didn’t want to lose any more weight ... I just want to have muscles in the right place.” In September 2015, when she first exploded onto the modelling scene, Hadid found herself defending her curves. “Yes, I have boobs, I have abs, I have a butt, I have thighs, but I’m not asking for special treatment. I’m fitting into the sample sizes,” the 1.79m clothes horse posted online. “I love that I can be sexy.…

Smiling and giggling, big-voiced and formerly shy Casey Donovan, who won Australian Idol in 2004 when she was 16, was once again singing on a reality-TV show. In the heart of a South African jungle in February, in front of her campmates on I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, Donovan sang “Lonely”, a ballad she wrote “about general life, me being lonely,” she says with a laugh. Donovan, 29, concedes, “It’s very nerve-racking, putting out new music and letting people into your little bit of loneliness.” Her courage paid off. Viewers, who had seen Donovan confront her fears and embrace her fun side, voted her the Season 3 I’m a Celebrity champ. With “Lonely” out as a single on May 19, a reinvigorated Donovan talks to WHO’s Cynthia…

As Dr Miranda Bailey on Grey’s Anatomy, Chandra Wilson has spent the past 12 years solving medical mysteries on TV. But when her own 16-year-old daughter, Sarina McFarlane, began experiencing the debilitating symptoms of a mystery illness in 2009, the actress was forced to go into detective mode herself. “She would get these terrible bouts of vomiting and stabbing abdominal pains,” says Wilson, 47. Doctors were unable to pinpoint the cause. “I thought, ‘This is crazy,’ ” Wilson says in an interview with her daughter on the Grey’s year as her daughter was continuously hospitalised. “I was scared, I was frustrated, I was depressed,” says McFarlane, now 23. “People in high school thought I was throwing up because I was trying to lose weight.” At hospital, doctors would treat her for…

WHEN CAMILLA BELLE opened her invite to the Dior Cruise 2018 show on May 11 and saw it was being held in a remote field in Calabasas, 45 minutes out of Santa Monica, she was “confused, to say the least,” she told W magazine. “Especially on a weekday, with the traffic. But then of course, I was totally happy to come.” So were 800 other A-listers, who—if they had no private transport—boarded black vans at two Los Angeles locations for the commute to the Upper Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve, where scenes from Gone With the Wind were filmed. As a Dior rep told The Hollywood Reporter, “There’s no Uber whatsoever.” To one guest in a shuttle, “It feels like we’re going to the moon.” Or just a hilltop.…

ACCORDING TO PRINCE HARRY, “Buckingham Palace gardens [had] not seen this much fun, ever” when he, along with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, invited children who had lost a family member during military service to a garden party on May 13. “Their Royal Highnesses have arranged the event as a way to acknowledge and honour the fact that a number of young children have had to come to terms with the loss of someone very close to them at a young age,” said a statement from Kensington Palace. William, 34, and Harry, 32, whose mother died almost 20 years ago, ensured organisations that support families dealing with loss were also present to help the 850 or so children. “The Duke and Duchess and Prince Harry hope the event will…

LESS THAN SIX WEEKS BEFORE HE COULD be paroled, Rolf Harris is back in court. After a jury failed to reach a verdict on charges of indecent assault against the former children’s entertainer last year (he was acquitted of three charges), Harris, 86, pleaded not guilty in a London court on May 15 in the retrial of the four counts involving three teenage girls. A new charge alleges Harris groped the breast of one of the girls in 1983, asking her, “Do you often get molested on a Saturday morning?” Perth-born Harris was sentenced to nearly six years in 2014 for sexual assaults on four girls. If found not guilty in his new trial, Harris could be released on parole in late June (in Britain, prisoners can apply for parole after…

Stepping out for the Mother’s Day Classic fun run in Melbourne on May 14, Snezana Markoski—with her fiancé, Sam Wood, and daughter Eve, 12, by her side—stood out in the crowd, sporting a neon-pink wig, black leggings and a giant smile. “She seemed to be relishing her time with Sam and Eve,” says Williamstown mother-of-four Tanya Outen, who was competing in the event with daughters Molly, 18, Emily, 17, and Nellie, 10. Wood and Markoski posed for photos with the family, and “Snez looked absolutely fantastic,” Outen, 45, tells WHO. “She looked super fit and trim.” Within hours though, Markoski, 36, made it clear why she was wearing a loose singlet at the fun run—and that she definitely has a sense of occasion. The Bachelor beauty, who won Wood’s first…

OUR MAN IN KIEV Firebrace shared photos of his Eurovision trip with WHO, including the images above and below. “This is my first time in Europe,” he says. “It’s amazing how far I’ve come from my small country town. This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing.” Following in the wind-machine wake of Guy Sebastian and Dami Im, Isaiah Firebrace, the teen from Moama, NSW, was ready to let his soaring vocals represent Australia at the Eurovision Song Contest grand final in Kiev, Ukraine, on May 13. Recalling to WHO advice he got from Im, who came in second last year, Firebrace says, “She said, ‘Don’t think too much about how you’re going to place. Just sing your heart out and whatever happens, happens.’ Before a global audience of more than 200 million…

While Sean Pica’s friends were planning for their prom and thinking about colleges, the then-18-year-old was headed to prison to serve a 24-year sentence for killing the father of classmate Cheryl Pierson. Angry and feeling hopeless, he began lashing out and landed in solitary confinement twice during the first three years of his incarceration. “I was in trouble,” he says. But when a guard asked him to help other inmates learn to read and write, it was a turning point for Pica. He refocused on his own education, earning a bachelor’s degree in organisational management from Nyack College. After 16 years he was released in 2002 and became the executive director of the program that helped him, Hudson Link for Higher Education in Prison, a nonprofit that for 18 years has…

THE FIGURES ARE STAGGERING: $100 million in real estate around the world; $24 million on a luxury yacht; $40,000 a month on fine wine. More than $4 million to blast the ashes of writer Hunter S. Thompson out of a cannon. These are just some of the jaw-dropping splurges laid bare in a contentious court battle between Johnny Depp and his former business managers. Though Depp earned more than $875 million over the past 13 years, he’s facing a mountain of debt and loan foreclosures. In duelling lawsuits, his managers, Joel and Robert Mandel at the Management Group, say the star led an “ultra-extravagant lifestyle” that cost him $2.7 million a month, while Depp, 53, alleges the managers swindled him out of his earnings through fraud and neglect and have…

CANBERRA MUM CONNIE JOHNSON AND her Gold Logie–winning brother, Samuel, have more than doubled their goal of raising $1 million for the Big Heart Project, Connie’s final public event for the charity Love Your Sister, started by Samuel when Connie was diagnosed with breast cancer seven years ago. “This is the last hurrah. It wasn’t going to be but during the planning for the event I got worse news and my health declined quite rapidly, and I am no longer receiving active cancer treatment,” said Connie, 40. The project encouraged the public to help build a giant heart of 5 cent coins at the Lyneham Netball Courts in Canberra. In the fight against cancer, “We have to vanquish this sucker quick-smart so our families can stay healthy,” Samuel told Network Ten’s The…

AS CASSIE SAINSBURY fights for her freedom, her nearest and dearest are waging a different battle. On May 15, her fiancé, Scott Broadbridge, visited Sainsbury in Colombia’s El Buen Pastor prison, where the 22-year-old South Australian is being held over allegedly attempting to smuggle 5.8kg of cocaine out of the country on April 12. An hour later, her mother, Lisa Evans, and sister, Khala, also paid the former personal trainer a visit. The two parties, who have each signed TV deals, did not speak to each other. They were Sainsbury’s first visitors since her arrest at Bogotá’s international airport, after authorities allegedly found 18 bags of cocaine inside 15 cases of headphones. Sainsbury says she was unaware of the drugs. Since then, tensions have arisen in Sainsbury’s camp. Broadbridge dismissed…

“What I didn’t want to do is lose my sense of joy. Happiness, to me, was a goal” After a 15-year break, Goldie Hawn, 71, is back on the big screen in the outrageous comedy–adventure Snatched, co-starring Amy Schumer. On May 5 we visited Hawn at her new Los Angeles home—a New England– style mansion filled with plush furniture and floral fabrics and built for visits from her five grandchildren and the blended family she shares with her partner of 34 years, Kurt Russell, 66.

But she also has a serious, thoughtful edge sharpened by a life that has had its share of trauma. At age 11, she was molested…

David Lynch is ready to mess with you again. He sits perched on a couch, with hands folded, in a spacious suite at Hollywood’s Chateau Marmont overlooking the street that inspired one of his favourite film noirs, Sunset Boulevard. He wears a black suit, white shirt and thin black tie—and a shy smirk on his weathered face. With his sweptback pouf of sandy hair, the iconic director of The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive, now 71, evokes the hearingimpaired FBI honcho he played on his onetime TV sensation Twin Peaks, or even a latter-day incarnation of the square and strange hero of his first movie, the surreal brain-blower Eraserhead. There’s a foamy latte in a white cup on the table. Conversation can get in the way of refreshments…

Veteran ABC journalist Mark Colvin, who was the voice of the national current-affairs radio program PM for two decades, died in a Sydney hospital on May 11 after a long battle with a rare autoimmune disease. He was 65. “We’ve lost a good man,” tweeted Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. Born in the UK and a graduate of Oxford, Colvin joined the ABC as a cadet in 1974 before working on 2JJ (the forerunner of Triple J). He worked as ABC London correspondent and was a Four Corners reporter before landing the PM role. Suffering kidney failure for years, Colvin received a kidney transplant in 2012 from Mary-Ellen Field—Elle Macpherson’s former business adviser. Just before Easter, he was diagnosed with lung cancer and admitted to hospital. He is survived by wife Michele McKenzie and their sons, William…
