Grazia senior sub-editor Carla Wolber was the one who broke the news to Grazia HQ, in a WhatsApp message, of Prince’s death. She was devastated. As is the entire world, it seems. The week following his death has been one giant haze of purple brocade and enormous lapels, his music being a fitting soundtrack for our mourning. While the shock at his untimely death doesn’t come as any surprise – after all, the man “defied categorisation and showed the world it was possible to march to the beat of your very own unique drum”, Guin Davies writes in her heartfelt tribute on pg 18 – I wasn’t expecting the millennial generation to be quite so torn up. Even our cover girl this week, Kendall Jenner, was touched by his passing,…

The world lost a legend Singer and pop icon Prince, 57, was found dead at his Paisley Park, Minnesota home. At the time of going to print police were launching an investigation into his death, but there have been multiple reports speculating how the Purple Rain legend died. One source claims that the singer may have overdosed. Just a few days before he died, Prince’s private plane made an emergency landing in Moline, Illinois, after he performed in Atlanta, so he could be rushed to hospital. Though his representatives said he was battling the flu, multiple sources allege that doctors gave him a “save shot”, which is usually given to drug-overdose victims to counteract the effects of an opiate. The sources say that doctors advised Prince to stay at the…

JESSIE J “You’re only as old as you feel. And if you don’t reach for the moon, you can’t fall on the stars, so I live my life like every day is the last.” EMMA STONE “I won’t make a bucket list because I’m afraid I’ll die, and people will find my bucket list and be like, ‘Oh, she didn’t get to do that…’” HAYLEY WILLIAMS “I believe it’s important to stay young at heart, to have faith in what might seem impossible and to have goals beyond your current abilities.” ADELE “I don’t have time to worry about something as petty as what I look like.”…

Ian Halperin’s new tell-all book reveals some of the things you probably never knew about the Kardashian clan: 1. They’re descendants of garbage collectors. Robert Kardashian Sr’s grandfather opened a small garbage-collection business in the 1910s. 2. When Kris Jenner met Robert Sr, she was wearing a necklace that said, “Oh shit.” He tried to pick her up by asking if her name was Janet. 3. OJ Simpson was a groomsman at Kris’s wedding to Robert Sr. And AC Cowlings, who drove the white Bronco during the chase, was the ring bearer. 4. Rob Jr once peed on his step-siblings during a game of hide-and-seek. “As he was peeing on the side of the house, his siblings caught him. He was so startled that he turned around, spraying them in…

FROM MEGAN FOX and Blake Lively to Eva Mendes and Olivia Wilde, it seems everyone is expecting. And if recent reports are to be believed, a pregnancy announcement from Diane Kruger is due any day now. However, while planning a baby should be an exciting time in any woman’s life, Diane is apparently using a bub to try to patch up her ten-year romance with Joshua Jackson, after it hit a rough patch. As we recently reported, tension was rife between them after it was revealed that Diane, 39, was spotted kissing actor Norman Reedus, alongside whom both she and Joshua, 37, starred in the film Sky. Friends say Diane and Joshua have been trying to salvage their relationship ever since the cheating rumours began – but without success. Cue…

‘My style is simple, fun and chic’ LISA FORTUIN, 24 Blogger GILET: Faux fur is here to stay, and Lisa shows us why with a crisp white jacket. BAG: Break up your monochrome look with a pastel bag. The design gives the look a whole new element. ‘I like my money where I can see it – hanging in my closet’ SAMANTHA MOSALA, 28 Stylist JACKET: We’re all about the bomber jacket, and this red-and-white one is just everything.

JENNIFER ANISTON vs HER MOM When Jen-An was at the height of her fame thanks to her stint on Friends, she shed light on her unhappy childhood and mom Nancy Dow’s ill treatment of her. “This is my last chunk of disease in my life – my mom,” she told Vanity Fair in 2000. “Growing up, she gave me low self-esteem and a sense of shame. I don’t know if I would have known how beautiful she was, if she wasn’t always pointing out how unbeautiful I was.” Jen cut all ties with her mom in 1996, after Nancy gave a TV interview about their relationship. The 79-year-old also later penned a revealing book about their problems, absolving herself MARIAH CAREY vs HER SIBLINGS It’s no secret that Mariah is…

Marieke Merts, 27, creates fashion content for Spree.co.za, SA’s most stylish online store. When she’s not putting together campaigns, she’s sourcing and styling. You can usually find her covered in samples, magazine in one hand and coffee in the other. Day-to-day This is mostly dictated by the rather large “inspiration” folder on my desktop. Clever styling tricks found on street style blogs, movies and paintings breathe new life into my everyday basics: neckerchiefs and berets worn with everything, polo-necks under slip dresses and skirts worn over dresses. Fashion event I go one of two routes: local or vintage. I love supporting the industry and am a huge fan of designers like Anmari Honibal,Adriaan Kuiters and Rich Mnisi, so wearing their pieces is a great way to make a statement. I…

SO YOU KNOW YOUR blood type, and you’re a pro when it comes to your skin type, but have you ever thought to investigate your gut type? According to nutritionist Josh Axe, almost all of us are prone to one of five digestive imbalances. Left unchecked, these imbalances could lead to the lining of your gut breaking down (otherwise known as leaky gut syndrome), which could result in everything from bloating to eczema and depression. The good news? You only need to look at a few areas in your life to determine where your gut’s at… CANDIDA GUT Bad habit: Ice cream, cupcakes, cookies… Need we say more? Emotional profile: Prone to worrying, anxious, obsessive What it means: An overgrowth of yeast in your digestive tract, generally caused by eating…

‘MY WEDDING RECEPTION WAS A BLAST. I DANCED TILL I COULDN’T FEEL MY FEET’ What were you like as a kid? I was very rebellious. My sister and I kept my mom very busy. We would get up to the strangest things. For instance, we would wet pieces of toilet paper and throw them onto the ceiling. After a couple of months, my mom’s ceiling was completely covered in dry lumps of toilet paper. What are you most proud of in terms of your career so far? My recent break on commercial daytime radio. What law would you make if you could? Tertiary education should be free and accessible to all. Who are your dream dinner party guests? Serena Willliams (for her work ethic), Beyoncé (I want to dance to…

IF EVER THERE WERE an artist with a capital A, this diminutive yet flamboyant funk powerhouse from Minnesota was it. In the decades since he burst onto the scene in 1977, Prince Rogers Nelson pushed the boundaries musically and stylistically, laughing in the face of gender norms and fully embracing his right to rock frilled blouses, metallic brocade suits, lace jumpsuits, feather boas and, yes, even a raspberry beret. An enigma wrapped in a riddle and draped in purple velvet, Prince defied categorisation. And like David Bowie before him, he showed the world it was possible to march to the beat of your very own unique drum. Even if that meant putting your heeled boot down, cutting ties with your label and changing your name to an unpronounceable symbol in…

“I think the problem is, in part, that women haven’t been allowed to explore and embrace and celebrate “down there” enough yet” WHAT DO YOU THINK of when you hear the word “fanny”? Do you think of hot, face-grabbing sex? Do you think of the mind-bending miracle of birth? What about “vagina” or “pussy”? But then how about “noo noo”? Or “twinkle”? And what of “angry kebab”? What I’m asking you, as a 35-year-old documentary film maker and writer is, what should I call my lady garden? By now, surely we, in fact I, should have a word to address this important area of anatomy that doesn’t feel too clinical, childish or slutty. And yet, when it comes to the bit between our legs, there seems to be no middle…

FLIRTING WITH FLORALS Take a step back into the 70s, and get a taste for the ladylike. Stick to moody florals, and mix with tan accessories. WARM AND FUZZY These faux-fur jackets give us that cosy feeling – not only because we love them, but also ’cause we know they’ll keep us snug and toasty. LONGER LENGTH Coats are starting to make their way into our wardrobes again. Go for something a little different with a longer-length coat to keep you warm and looking stylish. INTO THE BLUE Add something blue to your wardrobe this month. Show them how it’s done with azure accessories – or opt for head-to-toe cobalt to really get into the trend. POLO-NECKS The polo-neck may make you think of Steve Jobs, but this winter it’s…

Ever looked at a beautifully packaged eyeshadow palette and felt a tinge of fear? Well, it’s time to brush off the wariness and apply the shadow with confidence. How? With these handy techniques, of course… Here are the flicks of the wrist you need to master for your eye shape! Almond If you have almond-shaped eyes, you should consider yourself lucky – this is the shape make-up artists love to work with the most. Matte taupe colours work best for daytime looks. Take it all over the lid, into the crease and upwards toward the brow bone. Next, use a deeper matte shade on the outer corner of your eye. Use a rounded eyeshadow brush to blend both lines together. Then take the look to cocktail hour by adding a…

ADMITTEDLY, I ALWAYS WANTED a career in fashion. Every time I picked up a women’s glossy I flipped straight to the fashion pages. If I’m going to be really honest, I bought fashion mags religiously but barely ever read an article. A column like this? Nope, not even with the influence of Carrie Bradshaw would I have thought to read it… If I couldn’t wear it that weekend, I simply wasn’t interested. Sometimes you don’t see what’s staring you in the face… And so my journey with magazines started the same way every aspiring fashion editor’s does – with an internship. For six whole months I packed and carried boxes, steamed more dresses than I care to count and did coffee runs for crews on set… All for very, very…

GETTING OLDER NEVER used to bug me. In fact, when I was little, I used to wish that I could fall asleep and wake up an adult – kind of like Jen Garner did in 13 Going On 30. But as her character realised in the flick, growing up sucks. This really hit me as my 28th birthday approached. By this age, I’d expected to be married and pregnant with my first child. Despite the fact that I’m determined to be financially independent and climb the corporate ladder as fast as I can – much to my mother’s horror – my biggest dream is to settle down and become a mom. But I couldn’t be further away from this goal. I’m single AF and definitely not even close to welcoming…

FEDORA = WEEKEND LUNCH Head out with friends in cool denim and a fedora. This hat will turn heads while keeping you warm. Score! BERET = TO THE OFFICE Yes, you can wear your hat to the office – just make sure it’s something demure, like a beret. Great for finishing off a monochrome get-up. BEANIE = FRIDAY NIGHT OUT Give your Friday nights new meaning by dressing up your (normally casual) beanie with a printed tee, a pleated skirt and heels.…

ON MONDAY last week, Rhodes University awoke to news of a witch hunt, writes Rhodes student and lecturer Kayla Roux. Only this time, the witches were doing the hunting. A group of students spent the night before pulling individuals from their res rooms. Their crime? These men had all been accused of rape or sexual assault. Their names appeared on an anonymous Facebook Confessions page, and everybody knew somebody on the #RUreferencelist, confirming a fact many rape survivors and activists already know too well: our attackers are often those closest to us. Issues of defamation aside, it was a revolutionary moment. Some people on the list probably didn’t know they are rapists – just because she was too drunk to see doesn’t make it wrong, right? This is what rape…

TWO YEARS AGO, Jie was a tween celebrating the lunar New Year when she met and fell in love with a 14-year-old boy named Wen. Three days later, the pair got married. Now 13, Jie is pregnant. Her framed wedding portrait hangs on their bedroom wall at Wen’s parents’ house, with stickers from Disney’s Pixar to keep it company. But Jie and Wen’s love story is far from unique in the poorer parts of China, where teens seem intent on reviving the age-old culture of marrying very young – something the communist government attempted to stamp out. These marriages surprised photographer Muyi Xiao when she made her way to the south-western province of Yunnan in 2014. “Every girl I saw in these villages got married before they were 18, and…

OUR PANEL KAROLINA KURKOVA CAROLINE I love this look! It’s so simple yet striking and effortlessly cool. The biker jacket earns her two thumbs up. SINEAD This is the ultimate weekend outfit.

TEAM IRON MAN: SCARLETT JOHANSSON “I really can’t think of any other opportunity, certainly in this format in film, where I would have the chance to grow with the character as I have,” says Scarlett. “Now that we meet her again, and after all we know about what happened in Avengers 2, we know she has a greater calling, and I think that’s what makes this character really heroic.” The Black Widow will look a little different this time round too: “We gave her a sleeker uniform. In the past it’s been utilitarian-looking. This time it’s a little bit closer to the actual comics, which I think the fans will like. There’s something about it that’s kind of basic, and I like that. It doesn’t have crazy bells and whistles.…
