With broken bones, battles with trolls and an ongoing custody war, Britney Spears has had a Toxic time lately. And now life has thrown her another curveball, but this time, it’s a happy shock! Multiple sources tell NW that the curvy-looking singer thinks she might be pregnant with her third child – and she couldn’t be more thrilled! “Brit’s been telling pals that she’s late and totally feels like she’s got a baby in there,” reports one spy. “She’s even buying pink onesies because she’s got it in her head that she’s having a little girl. “She’s vague about whether she’s taken a test, though. I bet she’s scared of doing that in case it says she’s not. She’ll want to keep her happy buzz going as long as possible.”…

They may have left the experiment without husbands, but at least MAFS babes Cathy Evans and Kasey Osborne gained a BFF in one another. Sitting down with NW after our sexy swimsuit shoot – helloooo, hotties! – the gal pals tell us they “bonded straight away” after intruder Kasey rocked up to her first dinner party mid-way through filming. “We try to see each other and catch up as much as we can,” Cathy, 26, explains. With Kasey, 31, adding that “we have a lot of things in common”, we ask the duo to dish the dirt on their MAFS co-stars, as well as their plans for the future – which includes babies and a make-up empire! Move over, Kylie Jenner... Hi, girls. So it sounds like this was definitely…

It’s not like Lindsay Lohan to stay quiet about a romance, but she’s managed to keep her latest millionaire beau under wraps. The actress, 33, has been secretly living the high life with her new man Bader Shammas in Dubai – and money’s no object for the high roller when it comes to indulging his “American princess”. A long-time pal tells us that Bader, 31, is “filthy rich” and is number two at Credit Suisse Group, a leading financial services company. “He went to university in Florida, so he gets Lindsay’s American ways and knows what she expects – and that is to be spoilt rotten,” we’re told. “She buys two or three designer handbags a week – she has more Birkins than Kris Jenner! Bader blew $300K on one…

There’s no denying that Rosie O’Donnell’s recent weight drop has been extreme – and friends fear that heartbreak could be the cause! Insiders close to the comedy queen say she has been distraught since her November split with fiancée Elizabeth Rooney. “Everyone is worried about Rosie,” a source close to the 58-year-old reveals. “The pounds are melting off her!” A lifespan expert also tells NW, “Losing so much weight puts her at high risk for getting very sick. Rapid weight loss can reduce a person’s ability to fight infections.” After a heart attack in 2012, the former co-host of The View – who once tipped the scales at 108kg – underwent gastric sleeve surgery and lost 30kg. “I almost died... and that’s not an over-exaggeration,” Rosie has admitted. “That’s a…

Thanks to internet sleuths, gone are the days of keeping everything from a drug bust to a hooker, er, hook-up a secret – especially if you’re a star who’s been hit with the book. And going by our curated selection, police photographers don’t seem to be too concerned with catching a celebrity’s good side! HEATHER LOCKLEAR It’s advisable not to mess with law enforcers, but no-one seems to have informed Heather. In 2018, the Melrose Place fave was arrested on eight counts of battery across two incidents at her California home. During one of them, the star managed to beat up three deputies – which is a sure-fire way to guarantee a one-on-one photo shoot in the cop shop! JOHN MAYER In 2009, John revealed he had been busted driving…

2009 Everyone needs good Neighbours – but back in the day, Margot urgently needed a good stylist. She’ll never live down the mullet dress she wore to the TV Week Logie Awards. 2010 You can take the girl out of the Gold Coast, but you can’t take the GC out of the girl. This look screams “cashed-up bogan” – which is how Margot once described her early style! 2011 There’s not much to say about this floral frock other than Margot looks blooming lovely in it! We’d have swapped those chunky sandals for a strappy stiletto, though... 2014 Following her breakout role in The Wolf Of Wall Street, Margs upped her style game and took a walk on the dark side in the process. Love! 2016 Is there anything better…

THE NEW SEPHORA MUST-HAVES! Look, we all love a bit of make-up, but skincare is reigning supreme ATM – and our fave beauty destination Sephora is always one step ahead of the game.

This tushy trio have all the bases covered, from skin tightening and smoothing to hydrating – so treat your peach to some much needed “me” time. HAIR TO HAIL Who has time to go to the salon every five minutes? These new hair treatments…

AIR SQUATS Take your feet a little wider than your hips and turn your toes slightly out. Keep your chest up and push your hips back and down. Press into your heels and imagine lifting your toes. Lower your hips to parallel or what’s comfortable, then drive through the heels and glutes to extend back up. BURPEES From a standing position, squat down with your hands on the floor. Step or jump back into a plank, lowering your knees, hips, then chest in one smooth movement onto the floor. Push up through your arms lifting your chest, hips and legs off the floor. Step or jump both feet to your hands and stand up. V-SITS In a seated position, engage your core and slowly lift your legs (knees are bent…

Serves: 1 Ingredients • 2 large handfuls (75g) kale • A large handful (30g) rocket • A very small handful (5g) flat-leaf parsley • A very small handful (5g) lovage leaves (optional) • 2-3 large stalks (150g) green celery, including its leaves • ½ medium green apple • Juice of ½ lemon • ½ level tsp matcha* * Add to the first two juices of the day only Method 1. Mix the greens (kale, rocket, parsley and lovage, if using) together, then juice them. We find juicers can really differ in their efficiency at juicing leafy vegetables and you may need to re-juice the remnants before moving on to the other ingredients. The goal is to end up with about 50ml of juice from the greens. 2. Now juice the celery and apple. 3. You can peel the…

ECLECTIC & BOLD LIKE... Cara & Poppy Delevingne Mixing their personal styles with wild wallpapers, the Delevingne sisters have fused their talents to create a show-stopping pad. Poppy first fell in love with a de Gournay wallpaper featuring monkeys and toucans, which became the starting point for their out-there interior style. Describing her bedroom as “heaven”, the model, 33, says she wanted to create a calming atmosphere with pale pinks and blues, Moroccan rugs and super-soft fabrics. For her actress and supermodel sister Cara, 27, it was a very different style story. “I wanted to reclaim the concept of the bachelor pad and make it my own,” she explains. “My bedroom feels like the Playboy Mansion with a touch of Art Deco.” FRENCH LIKE... Jessica Alba…

Aries PLAIN WHITE CHOCOLATE  Chilli-based chocs are an absolute no-no for hot-headed rams – even plain milk chocolate could send an already hyper sign into overdrive! Instead, stick to the white stuff to remain calm and enjoy a relatively friction-free Easter. Taurus CHAMPAGNE TRUFFLES  With your love of luxury and a propensity to overindulge, you should opt for quality this year, not quantity.

Gemini FREDDOS & CARAMELLOS  Being a playful sign, you’ll be the first adult to join in any Easter egg hunt. Given that you’re also quick-witted, fast-moving and mischievous, you’ll be the first one to find all the treats – then eat them in front of the kids! Cancer HOME-MADE…

I guess if we’re exposing the stars in our Hollywood true-crime mini mag (page 25), it’s only fair I open up about my own run-in with the law. (Sorry, Mum!) It was during a wine-tasting/guzzling weekend with my bestie on NZ’s Waiheke Island, where we’d spent the day knocking it back at various vineyards, before retiring to a pub called Sardines. Within minutes, all the locals became our BFFs – well, except the bloke wearing Crocs, who wasn’t amused when I threw his fugly footwear off the bar’s balcony. Several hours after closing time, when we were eventually shooed out, the local police pulled up and offered us a ride to our hotel. So friendly! As we arrived, I grabbed what I thought was my friend’s handbag and waved goodbye…

Following in the footsteps of Janet Jackson, fellow ’90s icon Mariah Carey is planning to have a child at 50 with fiancé Bryan Tanaka! The Always Be My Baby singer has spilled her plans to friends and it looks like her Aspen wedding in December will be a shotgun affair. “She’s not ruled out a surrogate because she went through hell having the twins in 2011,” says a pal. “But it’s happening!” Mariah can see how great Bryan, 37, is with her twins Moroccan and Monroe, eight, and knows he wants one of his own. “Now she’s in a stable relationship and about to be married, it’s the perfect time,” adds the source. Congrats, diva!…

You can have a million bucks in the bank and a fridge stocked with the finest champagne – but some people, like these celebs, were born with the urge to steal no matter how rich they are. Pity for them they’re so recognisable on security camera footage and wanted posters... WINONA RYDER The actress became a pop culture icon (remember those Free Winona T-shirts?!) when she was nicked for, er, nicking more than $6000 worth of designer clothes and accessories from Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills back in 2001. Despite being charged with grand theft, Winona said, “It wasn’t what people think. I won’t get into what happened.” Er, OK... KIM RICHARDS Hobnobbing with her rich and famous girlfriends on The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills wasn’t enough for,…

THE PUSH-UP For reliable support that looks great and makes you feel brilliant – heck, trade in your hubby for one! TIP  A push-up bra with changeable straps is a great investment, as it can work with multiple necklines and therefore multiple outfits! LOUNGING DREAMS Perfect for the couch, a bit of Netflix or running after the kidlets! It’s a match made in heaven. TIP  Look for breathable and stretchy fabrics that put comfort first – and are exceptionally wash-friendly! SHEER DELIGHTS What lies beneath has never been more intriguing – play a bit of peekaboo with the most popular trend of 2020! TIP The boldest and kinkiest options aren’t always the sexiest – a subtle hint of skin with sheer options will be more than alluring for your other…

HYDRAFILLER It’s the newest skin treatment to hit the market and promises skin hydration for up to nine months! Perfect for those with fine lines and visible dehydration – the first signs of ageing. VERDICT: I was numbed all over my cheeks, upper lip and chin, then had tiny dots of this dermal filler injected into the surface layer of my skin. The feeling was a bit niggly towards the end of the treatment – more than 100 injections were administered – but overall completely bearable. My skin remained a bit red and puffy for a few hours, then completely subsided. The result? Smooth skin and absolutely no fine lines! I’m still in awe and would definitely do it again in another nine months. Elise Wilson, Beauty Editor. COST: From…

Aries MAR 21 – APRIL 20  Mercury, your planet of work and health, suggests a much quieter life over Easter. After recently being put through an emotionally and physically exhausting schedule, this should please you no end. Feel free to pursue all passion projects with abandon! Cancer JUNE 22 – JULY 23  The transit of Venus suggests certain family members aren’t going to be quite as available as they once were. Rather than play the “woe is me” card in front of them, use the next fortnight to make new plans with other, more reliable types. Libra SEPT 24 – OCT 23  Neptune wants you to pay more attention to your health for the next two weeks. Present low energy levels can be given a real boost in a short…

“Gwen and I have made a decision together: I’m growing my mullet back as a symbol of hope or some s**t like that.” It’s business in the front, party in the back for Blake Shelton. “All of a sudden they started dropping out. I looked like a dandelion once the petals had been blown off.” Octavia Spencer didn’t have the best experience with her eyelash extensions. “I started wearing bandanas because I couldn’t figure out what the hell to do with my hair.” Justin Timberlake finally explains one his iffy ’90s style choices.…

Pregnancy is meant to be a joyous time for expectant mothers. But for Amanda Bynes, it’s turned into a complete nightmare as the former child star is convinced people are planning to steal her baby. Whaaat?! The bipolar actress – who announced her pregnancy to the world via Instagram last month – has reportedly been admitted to rehab after going off the rails since falling in love with babydaddy Paul Michael. The pair met during a previous rehab stint. It was recently reported Amanda’s parents Rick and Lynn – who already have a conservatorship over their daughter – are concerned the star lacks the mental capacity to take care of herself, let alone a newborn. Thus they’re planning on asking a judge to place their grandchild in their care after…

Lisa Marie Presley might not be busting out the Jailhouse Rock anytime soon, as it appears the struggling star has become immobile. Indeed, Elvis and Priscilla’s only daughter was nearly unrecognisable during a recent day out in LA with her family. But most of all, onlookers were confused to see that the 52-year-old was using a scooter to weave in and out of the crowds. With experts estimating that the mother-of-four weighs over 100kg, a source tells NW, “It’s very worrying if Lisa is struggling to walk. It’s really tragic to see, considering her dad’s struggle with obesity just before his death.” Indeed, the pill-popping Hound Dog singer had ballooned to 159kg by the time he suffered a fatal heart attack in 1977 at the age of 42. Understandably, Elvis’…

Bananas for pyjamas! Rachel Zoe looks like she needs some major, er, dress relief as she fumes to her nanny during a stroll in Beverly Hills. Sporting a major “sew what” attitude, the stylist also lets her knack for fashion go awry by dressing her sons Skyler, nine, and Kaius, six, in Bananas In Pyjamas-inspired outfits. We’re not peeling this look, sorry! Ulti-mutt animal lover She already has girlfriend Ashley Benson to go mutts over, but that hasn’t stopped Cara Delevingne from falling in love with some new companions. Yep, meet Bowie and Hendrix! Hmm... first step fur babies, next step real babies, huh, Cara? Her number one fan Alright, Tori Spelling, we get that you’re a massive Beverly Hills, 90210 fan – there’s no need to, er, spell it…

Thigh hopes Like our face, the skin on our legs changes over time, becoming thinner, drier, less plump and less springy – with some unique challenges thrown in. And just as with our face, prevention is key. Next time you’re running out the door with exposed legs, remember to apply sunscreen on your poor limbs too. Not only can it help prevent melanoma, it can stop brown spots, freckles and sun spots from forming. “Melanoma is more common on the legs in women than in men, most likely due to our clothing choices,” says Dr Nina Wines of Northern Sydney Dermatology. If a little help is needed to fade sun spots, uneven tone or scars, an AHA-based lotion is your answer. Scrubs are great for general skin exfoliation if a…

Gone are the days when we had to slog away for 60 minutes a day to get results. Scientifically devised for the Japanese Olympic speed skating team, no less, Tabata is now big news around the world – and with four-minute workout sessions, we can totally see why. Exercise scientist Brooke Turner from Balance Fitness and Nutrition gives us the lowdown... WHAT IS TABATA TRAINING? Tabata training was designed by Japanese scientist Dr Izumi Tabata and a team of researchers from the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Tokyo. Each exercise in a Tabata workout lasts only four minutes – but at the time, it will feel a lot longer! It goes like this: • Work at maximum effort for 20 seconds • Rest for 10 seconds (this is…

What’s this – a diet that allows chocolate, red wine and coffee? It may seem too good to be true, but for followers of the Sirtfood Diet, it’s a reality. The eating plan is taking Hollywood by storm – it’s even been credited for Adele’s amazing 45kg weight loss. And given that we’re now in Easter mode, it’s also the answer to our festive eating plans. Devised by nutrition experts Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten, it’s based around “sirtfoods” which activate sirtuins – a special class of bodily proteins that help regulate the biological pathways affecting our body and weight. “Sirtfoods are particularly rich in special nutrients that, when we consume them, are able to activate the skinny genes in our bodies as fasting does,” Aidan and Glen explain in…

EMMA THOMPSON Like us, award-winning actress Emma is partial to a brownie. Her recipe takes it to the next level by slathering on a salted caramel sauce and garnishing with honey toffee pecans. We just bet that’s worth the sugar crash afterwards! JENNIFER GARNER If you’re not following Jen on Insta, then what are you doing? She runs her “pretend cooking show” and shares favourite recipes such as chocolate pudding. Hers only requires six pantry staples: cornstarch, sugar, salt, milk, semi-sweet chocolate and vanilla extract. JOANNA GAINES Home designer extraordinaire Joanna knows how to renovate a classic chocolate bundt cake. The secret to her recipe is using a box mix and yoghurt. She amps up a regular chocolate cake mix with a cup of plain yoghurt, chocolate chips and unsweetened…
