IN DRAMATIC SCENES ON APRIL 11, LONDON’S Metropolitan Police arrived at the Ecuadorian Embassy, where Julian Assange had been living in asylum for seven years, to forcibly put the WikiLeaks founder in handcuffs and usher him into an armoured vehicle. “The UK has no sovereignty!” he declared. “UK resist! Resist this attempt by the Trump Administration!” Assange, 47, was taken into custody on a minor warrant related to a 2012 failure to surrender to the court, Metropolitan Police reported. Hours later, US officials announced that he had also been charged with a single count of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion. If found guilty, he faces up to five years in prison. WikiLeaks rose to fame in 2010 when it published classified US documents. Australian-born Assange was granted asylum in 2012…

Earlier this month, members of the Democratic Women’s Caucus came together for an Equal Pay Day event in the US, calling on the Senate to hold a vote that would put an end to the gender pay gap. Among those who joined the House of Representatives’ Nancy Pelosi to give real insight into gender pay discrepancies was actress Michelle Williams. Advocating for the Paycheck Fairness Act, Williams revealed her shock when she discovered her All the Money in the World co-star Mark Wahlberg had been paid a staggering amount more than her for film re-shoots. “It’s the kind of story I would normally resist: the morality tale with a happy ending, or rather a happy beginning because that’s really why I’m here,” Williams told attendees. “There won’t be satisfaction for…

In her most revealing interview yet, Turia Pitt opens up about finding herself again, motherhood and the love of her life. What is beauty to you? Beauty for me is nature. Seeing an incredible sunrise or being able to go for a good surf or a big hike – gets me every time. What are the morals you hope to instil in your son, Hakavai? I want Hakavai to know that everyone has hard times – he will too, and I want him to know that he will be able to get through them. Has your relationship with Michael changed since becoming parents?

She started her career in musical theatre, but Wollongong-born Natalie Bassingthwaighte might be best known for her role as Izzy on Neighbours. The actress and mum talks all things family and going back to her roots. You’ve partnered up with the SISTER2sister charity. Why is this a cause close to your heart? I’ve got three sisters, so the “sisterhood” was always really important. SISTER2sister reaches out to young teenage girls that have suffered from neglect, emotional, physical and sexual abuse to take part in a year-long mentoring program. They learn survival skills and how to develop a work ethic. It’s a beautiful thing. Are you excited to star in Chicago? It’s been a dream role of mine to play Roxie Hart since I was young. I actually was a dancer…

He’s one of four English brothers who’ve made careers for themselves in the NRL since moving to Australia. But George Burgess, 26, reveals he wants to stand out on his own, with the father of two (and a third to come) telling WHO that his family means everything. You’re set to bare all for The All New Monty to shed a light on men’s cancers. What made you decide to come on board? My dad died when I was young (from motor neurone disease) and was taken away from us too early. This disease, while it’s different [to] prostate and testicular cancer, it still takes many men away from families. I thought if I can help in anyway then I’ll do what I can. What’s the most beautiful part of…

Before she makes her way to Tel Aviv in May to represent Australia in the international Eurovision contest, singer Kate Miller-Heidke sits down with WHO to talk about her idea of beauty. What’s your definition of beautiful? Someone with generosity of spirit. Someone with confidence and an interesting take on the world. When do you feel most beautiful? Probably when I’m on stage. That’s the moment when I can sometimes lose all self-consciousness and just feel like I’m channelling something bigger than myself. I just feel like a better version of myself on stage. What do you feel is your biggest career achievement? Recently, opening night for a musical that came to life. I wrote the music and lyrics for Muriel’s Wedding – I have to say, that was a…

She was one of the world’s most glamorous and beloved movie stars. Yet as Audrey Hepburn’s son Luca Dotti, 49, remembers, “When my mother told us about her life, she never talked about Hollywood or her films. She spoke about the war, about good and evil. I knew from her eyes, her shaky hands that there was more to the story.” The Breakfast at Tiffany’s star, who died in 1993 aged 63, from appendix cancer, had suffered lasting trauma from her experiences during World War II. But she rarely spoke about the details – in part, no doubt, because her British father, who  abandoned the family when she was 6, was an agent for the Germans, and her Dutch baroness mother, Ella van Heemstra, was initially a Nazi sympathizer. Now…

One glance at Ibby Moubadder and it’s pretty clear why he used to be a male model. Bright, wide smile, razor-sharp jaw and abs for days, there’s no denying the 30-year-old is one good-looking man. However, don’t be fooled into thinking Ibby is more muscle than substance – the Sydney cafe owner has built himself an impressive life from very humble beginnings. Born in Lebanon, his parents’ home was bombed in the war and he lost his dad suddenly. “My dad passed away when I was 8,” Ibby tells WHO. “He passed away really, really suddenly – it was not expected at all. He woke up one day and had a chest pain and he went off to hospital and he never came back.” His dad’s death had a profound…

Since she transitioned away from the R&B-inflected pop of her debut album – remember the Destiny’s Child-esque ‘There You Go’? – for more of a rock feel, Pink’s vast catalogue has had a fairly consistent sound. Odd excursions like ‘Feel Good Time’ aside, it’s been power pop/rock and heartfelt ballads all the way. On her eighth album, the stadium filler mixes things up. After business as usual on the album’s first track, the feisty, F-bomb-laden ‘Hustle’, vocal effects and electronic influences creep in on ‘(Hey Why) Miss You Sometime’, and so it continues, with the types of songs we’ve come to expect from Pink (the soaring ‘My Attic’ could have appeared on any of her past few albums; the rousing ‘Courage’ is every bit as inspiring as ‘Try’) mixed in…

The Oscar-nominated actress and star of Downton Abbey, 57, recently visited Australia to promote The Chaperone (review below), based on the book of the same name by Laura Moriarty. Actress Louise Brooks’ life was an interesting one, but what interested you about the story of your character, chaperone Norma? The impact Louise Brooks had on a very ordinary woman in this period is what’s really interesting. This girl was emblematic of sexual liberation and really impacted the culture of her time – and if you’d done the biopic where she rises to fame then self-destructs, it’s been done many times before. This is a different take on the phenomenon and the America it reflects. There was a real Norma, wasn’t there? There was, and her name was Alice Mills, I…

“I know what the truth is. We’re just happy. We’re not going to let other people come out and tell us what our relationship is.” Jennifer Lopez, 49, says she’s not bothered by claims her fiancé, Alex Rodriguez, 43, cheated on her with Jessica Canseco. “Hmm … Gonna have to break a few more records to dethrone my title there, bud.” Justin Bieber, 25, had something to say about Shawn Mendes, 20, being bestowed the title of “Prince of Pop”! The ‘Sorry’ singer challenged Mendes to battle it out on the rink or basketball court to declare a winner. “I’ve been single for 10 years, it’s not a long shot. Somebody just needs to grow a pair and step up.” Describing herself as “shockingly available” Charlize Theron, 43, is looking…

AFTER A WHIRLWIND FEW YEARS since appearing on the 2016 series of The Bachelor and winning (then losing) Richie Strahan’s heart, Alex Nation, 27, is taking another shot at finding “the one” on this year’s Bachelor In Paradise. While Richie lay low after their split, Alex has continued to live in the spotlight, sharing her family life, relationships and radio show with her fans. The most notable headlines were of Alex’s same-sex relationship with AFL teammate Maegan Luxa, who she began dating in November 2017 after splitting with Richie. “When it comes to love, my friends and family would tell you that my heart isn’t one to discriminate,” Alex posted on Instagram at the time. “I very much fall for a person and the connection that I share with them.”…

Just three weeks prior to our photo shoot, the gorgeous Home and Away star welcomed her second child, a baby girl, Neve. It’s clear McNamee, completely wrapped up in the newborn bubble, is in awe of her tiny creation and is excited to show her off. Already mum to 4-year-old Jack, McNamee and husband Matt Tooker count Neve’s arrival as a blessing, after struggling through endometriosis complications trying to conceive her. “If I’m honest, I don’t like being pregnant, I don’t enjoy the experience,” the 36-year-old says. “I wish I was an earth mother who loved every minute. But I was pregnant so I could have…

Here’s what the loved-up parents find most beautiful about their relationship. What is beauty to you both? SAM: It sounds so clichéd, but it really is about what’s on the inside. The way [Snez] is with her children. The glow she has when she’s pregnant, the way she lights up a room and the generosity and love she shows to others. What are the qualities of a beautiful person to you? SNEZ: Kind, selfless, happy, confident. Who is the most beautiful person you know and why? SAM: For me , it’s Snez. From the moment I met…

With 16 years in the modelling industry in Australia and abroad, April Rose Pengilly didn’t expect to find her happy place in front of a TV camera on the set of Neighbours. The 31-year-old star, who plays Chloe Brennan, opens up to WHO about growing up in the public eye, her responsibility as a role model and finding the time to treat herself well. How do you define the word “beautiful”? I think beauty is defined by just being the best person you can be, being kind to others and having confidence in yourself. I think those qualities will shine out of you. When do you feel most beautiful? I actually feel most beautiful with no makeup, when I’ve got great skin care, and I’ve been looking after myself, and…

20S LILI REINHART Her girl-next-door look has won the hearts of Riverdale fans across the globe.

That’s not the world we live in. It’s not realistic.” 50S JULIA ROBERTS After many successful decades in Hollywood, Julia…

They never met, but the actress and the author were both dark-haired, sensitive girls born in 1929 – and they lived just 95km apart. The life-and-death difference? Anne Frank (far left) was Jewish. As the world learned in The Diary of a Young Girl, Anne and her family hid in a secret annex before being discovered by the Gestapo and sent to concentration camps. (Anne died at Bergen-Belsen in 1945.) When Audrey (near left) read Anne’s book, she said she felt“this child who was locked up ... had written a full report of everything I’d experienced and felt.”Despite the urging of Anne’s father, Otto – the family’s sole survivor – Audrey turned down the role of Anne in the 1959 film.“I was so destroyed by it ... that I said…

Even before it went to air, Andrew Denton knew the conversation would be divisive. Last year, on his talk show Interview, Denton spoke with controversial faith healer Charlie Goldsmith, who claims to be able to heal sick people with the touch of his hands and has his own US reality TV series, The Healer. “I could have interviewed a potato and it would have been divisive because that’s the age we’re in,” Denton, 58, says, referring to the tendency of social media outrage whenever there’s a whiff of controversy. “It didn’t matter which way that interview went, I was going to get punched by one half of the audience.” And he was royally pummelled in the social media boxing ring. Some questioned why Denton would interview Goldsmith, who they considered…

You could say 2019 is shaping up to be Lizzo’s year, with the singer and rapper receiving more attention than ever.

ON APRIL 15, BYSTANDERS IN PARIS watched hopelessly as the famous 12th-Century built Notre Dame Cathedral erupted in flames. Firefighters battled to save the 850-year-old building, but the 90m spire collapsed in front of horrified onlookers. French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his sorrow on Twitter. “Our Lady of Paris in flames – I’m sad tonight to see this part of us burn.” Witnesses described their horror at seeing the fire. “Everything is collapsing,” a police officer said, with eyewitness Jacek Poltorak adding, “I see no hope for the building.” Fortunately, none of the 13 million annual visitors were in the building at the time, due to extensive renovations taking place to restore the cathedral after damage caused by hundreds of years of acid rain and pollution.

I like to think that I’m trustworthy and I try to be kind. Oh my God, that sounds so bad. I like to think that I’m kind to my friends. I just like to think that I’m kind. What do you think when you hear the word ‘beautiful’? I describe people as beautiful, like as a beautiful human.

I think that we’ve all got really…

It is always haunting to listen to new music released after an artist’s death, and that has never been truer than in the case of this eighth album from the Irish rock group, completed following the 2018 passing of singer Dolores O’Riordan, who had already recorded many of her unmistakable vocals. There is a melancholy that pervades In the End, which features titles like ‘All Over Now’, ‘The Pressur’ and ‘Wake Me When It’s Over’, and a defeated resignation on ‘Lost’, with the fight and anger of the band’s earlier works diminished. With The Cranberries now set to disband, it’s a fitting way to send off O’Riordan. (Out Fri., Apr. 26)…
