Kanye West’s new-found obsession with his evangelical Christian faith continues to gather steam – but his religion is beginning to tear his family apart. NW has learned that Yeezy’s wife Kim Kardashian was left devastated recently when he unceremoniously announced that, according to his Biblical learning, his two youngest children – Chicago, 23 months, and Psalm, six months – aren’t his. Say whaaat?! “They were both born via surrogate and Kanye’s suddenly decided the whole process is unnatural and against God’s will,” explains our informant. “He says that North and Saint, who were conceived traditionally, are truly his. Kim knows he’s obsessed with his religion right now, but she couldn’t believe her ears when he said that.” Making matters even more heartbreaking, Kanye, 42, allegedly told Kim “she’s not Chi…

Yep, even though Ben, 47, and Ana, 31, have been shooting for less than two weeks, they’ve already become very close. “They hit it off when they first met to talk about the movie and things have really heated up since they started working side by side,” spills the set spy. “Ana admired Ben’s work, but she had no idea how smart, engaging and handsome he was in person. She’s definitely smitten and so is he.” As fresh as…

Poor Tori Spelling is on the verge of a major breakdown following the cancellation of BH90210. Uh-oh! Tori was the driving force behind the Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot, with sources saying it was created mostly to pull the star out of the massive financial hole she and hubby Dean McDermott have dug themselves. “Tori was counting on her payday from the show to get her out of debt – and now she’s watching the gravy train roll away without her,” an insider sighs. “She was also hoping that it would re-establish her as a bankable TV star, but the horrible reviews and quick cancellation have trampled on those plans!” For years, Tori, 46, and Dean, 53, have claimed to be flat broke, and friends say she collapsed in tears when…

Do you live your life by the motto, “It’s not a good workout unless I’ve broken into a sweat”? OK, that might be a great side effect, but it’s not the only sign of a good sesh, according to Brooke Turner, nutritionist and exercise scientist from balancefitnessandnutrition.com.au. Here’s how to make sure your workout really is working for you... UNDERSTAND SORENESS When you do resistance training, you’re causing tiny “micro tears” in your muscle fibres, which heal to create bigger muscles – cue that sore feeling you get the next day. “If you’ve ever had some time off training, tried out a new form of exercise or upped your load, you would have experienced this,” Brooke says. “You won’t always pull up sore after a workout, so don’t think that…

The Amazing Race Australia’s Tim Sattler and Rod Jones are almost at the end of their trek and closer to that $250,000 prize. But the newlyweds tell NW the experience hasn’t been easy, with sleep deprivation, and physical and mental exhaustion! However, there was one person who helped make them, erm, stronger than yesterday – Ms Britney Spears... Hi, guys! We can’t imagine how tough the show is. How did you stay so positive? Our queen Britney Spears! She gave us so much life during the race. We love her so much. What is it about Brit that inspires you so much? She’s actually both of our celebrity crushes.

With all the drama of their family feud, I haven’t exactly been envious of Harry and Meghan lately... That is, until last week, when NW discovered the duke and duchess have been invited to spend Xmas with none other than George and Amal! Imagine watching the Clooneys’ adorable twins toddle around the tree while you discussed human rights, sipped on tequila cocktails and opened expensive pressies (details on page 12). Can you get any merrier? I’d RSVP faster than Meghan has ditched her feral relatives! To be fair, I’m dropping most of my fam this fast-approaching festive season. While the van der Zwan clan had hoped to spend the big day in Tasmania – mostly so I could use the hashtag #HoHoHobart on my Insta feed – flights proved too…

When news broke last week that Brad Pitt has been getting close to indie actress Alia Shawkat, it didn’t take long for his ex-wife Angelina Jolie to react in her trademark vindictive fashion. “As soon as she heard there was another woman in Brad’s life, Angelina immediately withheld access to their kids,” dishes an insider. “She’s meant to send them over to his place every few days, but instead she hit the roof over the fact that he’s been dating right under her nose and refused to hand them over.” NW understands that for two days there was a tense stand-off between Brad, 55, and Ange, 44, who dramatically split in 2016 and then battled it out for custody of their six children for almost two-and-a-half years. Eventually Brad won…

Sandra Bullock is about to Blind Side the world by springing another stealth sprog on us! Hollywood is buzzing that the 55-year-old actress and her silver fox boyfriend Bryan Randall are in the process of adopting a third child – and friends say the family “couldn’t be happier”. “Sandra’s already reached out to her adoption broker – all the signs are that a new baby is on the way,” reveals NW’s exclusive insider. “It’s all anyone’s talking about! No-one deserves this more than Sandy.” In January, Sandra gave her biggest hint yet that she and Bryan, 53, were adding to their brood, saying, “I think this is it, but everyone keeps saying never say never... I’ll be open to whatever comes our way.” In the past, Sandra has remained tight-lipped…

Joshua Jackson has reportedly tied the knot with model and actress Jodie Turner-Smith – with the smitten couple proudly showing off his ’n’ hers wedding rings on the red carpet last week.

Katie Holmes has a cashflow problem. In fact, with numerous high-ticket items in her budget – including a $37,000-per-month, three-bedroom apartment in New York City, private school fees for her daughter Suri, 13, and a designer wardobe – a source tells NW that the single mum “is living pay cheque to pay cheque”. And increasingly, those cheques are not coming from her acting... “Her career is going through a mini slump,” says the informant, with Katie’s next project the low-budget horror flick Brahms: The Boy II. Amid rumours she’s pregnant again – meaning she’ll have another mouth to feed – Katie, 40, is instead trying to score endorsement deals and paid appearances that will earn a pretty penny. “The talk is she’s pulling in almost $30,000 for red-carpet events and…

Out of all of the Friends cast, Jennifer Aniston is the one who’s been pushing hardest for a reboot. For years now, she’s teased the reunion – telling Ellen DeGeneres back in October, “We’d love for there to be something, but we don’t know what that something is, so we’re just trying... we’re really working on something.” But now that it’s finally happening – with HBO Max signing the exclusive deal – Jen’s having a mini-meltdown that she’s not camera-ready! ‘IT’S LIKE HER WHOLE BODY HAS BROKEN DOWN’ Yep, the 50-year-old is freaking out over her ageing visage and the thought of hitting the small screen in yet another project has her keeping her surgeon on speed-dial. “Jen would never get anything extreme or drastic done – she’s a firm…

Mobiles were confiscated! With their wedding being televised on A Current Affair, Cam and Jules didn’t want anything getting leaked on social media. “Security locked everyone’s phones in a cupboard,” a source spills. “Guests were furious!” Reality stars were only invited to the party! A few of the guests, including Hayden and Sara, were told to arrive at 8pm – when the ceremony and reception were already over. How rude!

Shane Warne has told Aussie actors to go into bat if they want to play him in an upcoming biopic about his life on and off the cricket pitch. And it seems the spotlight-loving sportsman is, er, batting above his average when it comes to his top choices for the role! “Russell Crowe is a quality actor,” Warnie, 50, says of the star he’d most like to see play him. “Chris Hemsworth is killing it – and he’s an Aussie from Victoria too.” With Warnie’s top picks lined up, all the project needs is a script – but that’s back on the drawing board after the player demanded rewrites to remove the sex and drugs! While the film will take a look at his career and also feature his famous…

1 You should feel your muscles activate. “If you were performing bicep curls and sit-ups, your upper arms and core would be feeling activated,” Brooke says. But if you feel back or neck soreness, this is a sign of “bad” pain and your technique may need work, she explains. 2 Aim to feel good in your body and mind, reckons Brooke. “Workouts can help to alleviate anxiety, boost your brain power, increase your confidence, reduce stress, sharpen your memory and lift your mood,” she shares with us. 3 If you don’t already own a smart watch, consider dropping a few hints with loved ones this Christmas. “[They] not only keep you motivated, but also track your progress,” says Brooke.…

‘Meryl is a very good snogger... There was no stone unturned in my gob: “Blimey, what’s she doing here? Mining for jewels?”’ Emma Thompson’s on-screen pash with Meryl Streep was quite, er, thorough. ‘I genuinely think that if something’s supposed to be funny...
