Over the last four weeks, it has been impossible to escape the harrowing images of fire-ravaged towns, heartbroken families and helpless wildlife. It’s also been impossible to avoid the name Celeste Barber. The Australian comedian has become an unlikely face of hope in the midst of the devastating bushfires. After sharing a haunting photo from her mother-in-law’s home in Eden, NSW, Celeste did what many generous Aussies do in times of crisis, start a Facebook fundraiser – simply titled ‘Please help any way you can. This is terrifying.’ And she wasn’t alone. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban donated $500,000 to bushfire victims. So did singing superstars Pink and Kylie Minogue. Actor Joel Edgerton started #fightfirewithafiver and Margot Robbie shared an impassioned plea to donate. The Australian bushfires were also the…

LEONARDO DICAPRIO SPENT THE LAST DAY OF the decade in much the same way he’s spent most of it – making a splash with a gorgeous model by his side. On New Year’s Eve, the 45-year-old hit the beach on the Caribbean island of St Barts with Camila Morrone, 22. “They seem pretty serious. It’s definitely not a casual relationship,” a source told WHO. “Camila has been with Leo for a while, and he introduced her to his parents ages ago.” The couple were first linked during an outing in Aspen, Colorado, a year ago, making this his longest relationship since he dated model Bar Refaeli from 2006 to 2011. The Oscar-winner has famously never dated a woman who’s over 25. His relationship with Refaeli ended when she reached that…

When the stars decide to get hitched, they do it in style – seemingly literally no expense is spared as they ostentatiously show off their immense wealth to their famous buddies and show just how much taste (or lack of taste!) they have. We’ve covered some absolute corkers over the years in the pages of WHO, as we know how much you love seeing the jaw-dropping glitz and glamour. But there are a select few who went above and beyond in making their very special day a very pricey event. Here, we take a look at just how much some of the most over-the-top celebrity nuptials have actually cost. PRINCE CHARLES & LADY DIANA $160 MILLION More than 750 million people in 74 countries watched the ill-fated pair exchange their…

What is beauty to you? Beauty is something we see in someone or something that makes us smile. Beauty can be a physical trait but it can be an action or emotion too. What is your favourite feature? My favourite physical feature would be my dimples when I smile. The best beauty advice? Less is more! You don’t need a trillion products in your routine and you certainly don’t need a trillion products for a beautiful makeup look. What are your gym bag beauty essentials? Water bottle, face wipes and a sturdy hair tie! Your top tips for post-workout hair? Grab some hairspray and chuck it back in a sleek pony or bun … otherwise, dry shampoo! I love Eleven products. What are your skin care tips? Drink lots of…

SEEKING THRILLS Georgia The British singer and producer has been winning rave reviews for tracks such as ‘About Work the Dancefloor’, which won Popjustice’s Twenty Quid Music Prize last year, and ‘Never Let You Go’, another of the best pop tracks of 2019. And while her debut album has more out-and-out bangers where those came from, Seeking Thrills also features some experimental tracks, like the robotic ‘Mellow’, that aren’t as immediate. Georgia may not be as well known yet as Robyn or Grimes, but this should appeal to fans of both those singers. (Out Fri., Jan. 10) BOOK THE MOTHERS Genevieve Gannon Grace and Dan Arden have been through multiple rounds of IVF in their quest to have a child; Priya Laghari is nearer the beginning of the process but…

After the last trophy was handed out, the Beverly Hilton Hotel turned into one star-studded bash as studios and streaming services conquered corners of the venue to celebrate the evening. “It’s the best party that you could possibly ever come to,” said Ellen DeGeneres. Laura Dern brought along her kids, Ellery, 18, and Jaya, 15, while her Big Little Lies co-star Zoë Kravitz mingled with her mum Lisa Bonet and her singlet-clad stepdad Jason Momoa. She was also seen chatting to her other Big Little Lies co-star Shailene Woodley but couldn’t curb her enthusiasm when she saw Larry David at the HBO soiree. “I’m obsessed with him!” Kravitz revealed to his table according to USA Today. At the InStyle bash, Patricia Arquette donned a Viking hat as she dug into…

ADELE KICKED OFF 2020 BY HITTING THE BEACHES IN Anguilla with famous friends including Harry Styles and late-night host James Corden. She gripped a cocktail before running down the sand to take a fully dressed dip in the Caribbean, hitching up her Reformation label dress as she played in the waves. Her slimmed-down frame sparked some concern from social media users.“Wait Adele looks way too skinny here should we get worried?” wrote one, while others were less alarmist.“I bet that she’s been on a diet to get to her ideal weight,” posted another. Adele’s carefree holiday comes after a difficult patch, which saw her file for divorce from husband Simon Konecki in September. Fun in the sun aside, sources tell WHO, the singer, 31, is also ready to work. “She…

The Brown family, Nicola, her husband and their two kids, aged 8 and 6, arrived in the small coastal town of Mallacoota, Victoria, on Boxing Day and set up camp at the local caravan park. But on New Year’s Eve, the sky in the East Gippsland town turned blood red as flames from a nearby bushfire raced towards them. Nicole told WHO about the terrifying events that followed. “The sky turned pitch black, a siren sounded and we quickly put everyone in the car and raced to the wharf. Thick smoke and ash filled the air, so we put sunglasses and masks on the children and huddled against a small wharf building, putting the kids under a wet woollen blanket. “It was so hard to breath and see … it…

Aussie celebrities have this week helped raise millions of dollars for bushfire relief, with comedian Celeste Barber leading the way with nearly $40 million raised in just five days. The Instagram queen posted a Facebook fundraiser on Friday, and later shared a video of her furious mother-in-law, Joy Robin, being evacuated at Eden Wharf, slamming the government’s inadequate response. “This is our war. This fire is Australia’s war at the moment … it’s going right to the coast. And there isn’t one ADF on the ground, and that’s what we want,” Robin stormed. Within hours, the fundraising post had been shared thousands of times worldwide by Barber’s 6.4 million followers, and 754,000 donations had flooded in. Pia Miller, Laura Byrne and Angie Kent all called for her to lead the…

THE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION I MADE FOR 2020 I made a resolution many years ago that I wasn’t going to do resolutions anymore. It’s the one I’ve actually been able to keep. THE 2019 MOMENT I WISH I COULD EXPERIENCE ALL OVER AGAIN Family vacations – I love spending time together. THE PERSON WHO INSPIRED ME MOST LAST YEAR My mother, Marian Robinson – this year and every year. THE 2019 MOVIES I LOVED Toy Story 4, Booksmart, American Son. THE BOOKS I DEVOURED Exit West, Gilead. THE TV SHOWS I BINGE-WATCHED The Politician, Unbelievable, Pose. MY BIGGEST SURPRISE OF LAST YEAR The extraordinarily warm reaction to my memoir. WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO MOST IN 2020 Becoming even more [me]……

Scarlett Johansson will never be the same again. A long-time Hollywood ‘It girl’, the bombshell is renowned for a string of sexy screen roles, including Marvel’s Black Widow, but the 35-year-old is now rejoicing in the fact she’s officially transitioned into a new phase of her career – playing ‘mum’ roles. The mother of one is embracing her newfound identity, playing mums in back-to-back films Marriage Story, out now, and Jojo Rabbit, which is in cinemas on Boxing Day. “Being a mum made me a better actor” Johansson tells WHO that she “loved” playing on-screen mothers in the films, and drew on her love for her 5-year-old  daughter Rose to bring raw emotion to the roles. Inspired by the book Caging Skies by Christine Leunens, satirical black comedy Jojo Rabbit…

AND WHY ARE YOU SEEING IT EVERYWHERE? Once it was a yoghurt-type drink in health food stores, now it’s in glass bottles and a sister to kombucha. What’s going on? We checked with Caleb Robertson, master fermenter and founder of loveyourguts.co. WHAT YOU’RE SEEING IS WATER KEFIR. “Kefir has traditionally been made with milk and likened to a drinkable yoghurt. Water kefir on the other hand, although fermented with a similar culture, is a vegan and dairy-free alternative.” IT’S LIKE KOMBUCHA … BUT NOT. “Kefir offers the same gut health benefits, but it has a much milder flavour profile. It’s caffeine free, unlike kombucha which is brewed with tea. It is also less vinegary and produces milder acids, making it gentler on the stomach and teeth.” IT CONTAINS A TRACE…

There has been a lot of talk in the wine industry lately about millennials, and there’s a good reason for that. But first, just who is a millennial? If you were born between 1981 and 1996, you are considered a millennial. Now back to wine and millennials. Many wineries are upping the ante on their labelling and marketing to target millennial buyers. Not only is this generation cashed-up, brand-savvy and knowledgeable about wine, they are also about to overtake baby boomers as the biggest consumers of wine. Marketing wine to this generation is very different to previous marketing. By and large, millennials tend to prefer arty, graphic and visually expressive labels. They shun the traditional labels and award-winning stickers of the past. As a visual person I get very excited…

The 51-year-old reggae singer behind mega-hits ‘It Wasn’t Me’ and ‘Boombastic’ is touring Australia with Sean Paul from Wed., Jan. 29. You’ve toured Australia before. What do you like about coming here? It’s always great to tour Australia – the fans are really reactive. It’s funny, back in the day, my favourite city was Perth because it was kind of a small city. The first time I went was in 1994. I went back just recently and so much has changed. It’s a massive city right now. I like Sydney and Melbourne, too – I have friends in all these places. Have you worked with Sean Paul before? Sean and I haven’t done a full tour together but we’ve both been on the same bill before. He and I are…

The up-and-coming singer-songwriter, 22, has released her debut single, ‘Wild’, and will perform at the Girls Day Out concert at the Australian Open on Sun., Jan. 19. It must be an exciting time for you with your career starting to take off. It’s such an exciting feeling because for so long this is what I’ve wanted. There have been so many pinch myself moments over the past year – signing my record deal and having my song [‘Wild’] on Home and Away. I used to watch that every night after my singing lesson so that was such a surreal moment for me. Have there been hurdles you’ve had to overcome along the way? It’s been a very different experience to what I thought it was going to be. I met…

“I have children, and how one makes children is generally what I do before bed – that’s not a lie.” Kelly Clarkson on her bedtime routine. “Truthfully, all they (men) go out for is to get laid. I’ve never done that. It’s not my first option; never has been – and that’s why I’ve gone out with all these good-looking women.” Meat Loaf explained the secret to his success with women. “Porn. But art-house porn.” Robert Pattinson joked about what he would do if his upcoming trilogy of Batman films flop. “Start dating your best friend ASAP.” Miley Cyrus had some relationship advice for her social media followers while on a date with pal, Cody Simpson.…

“I came here in a limo tonight and the licence plate was made by Felicity Huffman.” “ Leonardo DiCaprio attended the [Once Upon a Time in Hollywood] premiere, and by the end his date was too old for him. Even Prince Andrew’s like, ‘Come on, mate – you’re nearly 50, son’.” “On the same table, there’s Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Baby Yoda. Oh no, that’s Joe Pesci, sorry.” “Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg, so if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent and your God and f--k off, OK?” On his Netflix show Afterlife: “It has a second season though, so he obviously doesn’t kill himself in the end – just like Jeffrey Epstein. I know he’s your…

Just eight months after her split from musician husband Phil Elverum was made public, Michelle Williams has revealed she is pregnant and engaged to Hamilton director Thomas Kail. “She fell fast and hard for Thomas,” a source told E! News. “They are very in love and excited about their future.” “Don’t settle for something that feels like a prison”— Williams Kail, 42, directed Williams, 39, in the acclaimed TV drama Fosse/Verdon, for which she won an Emmy Award for lead actress along with a Golden Globe. A source told WHO that Williams’ 14-year-old daughter Matilda, whose dad was the late Australian actor Heath Ledger, played matchmaker. Williams’ new romance comes a year and a half after she married Elverum, 41, in a secret ceremony in New York State’s Adirondack Mountains,…

She’s no stranger to having cameras follow her every waking moment, but now, former Laguna Beach star Kristin Cavallari wants to move past her drama-filled reality TV days and focus on family. “At the end of the day I am a wife and a mother. That’s what’s important to me,” the 32-year-old tells WHO. “I want to tell my kids where they come from”— Kristin Cavallari Aussie audiences first met the then 17-year-old in 2004 on the hit reality show set in Orange County, California, which chronicled the conflicts, feuds and relationships of students at Laguna Beach High School. After three successful seasons, she joined the fifth season of its spin-off The Hills in 2009 alongside Heidi Montag and Audrina Patridge, and was embroiled in yet more love triangles and…

WHAT: APPLE WATCH SERIES 5 WHERE: APPLE.COM/AU COST: RRP $649 (APPLE WATCH SERIES 3 RRP $319). As someone who is already addicted to devices, I’ve never been sure I needed a smart watch. However, I took the leap and tested out a bunch of wellness features across a month and customised different watch straps to match my outfits, which isn’t a health feature but should be as it gave me a little happiness hit each time I did it! An unexpected mental health bonus for me is that the Apple Watch greatly reduced the number of times I had to pick up my phone in a day, which kept me on task. You can skip a song on Spotify, ask Siri to set a reminder or answer a call on…
