When WHO’s writer Jodie Wolf returned to the office after interviewing American actress Eva Mendes, the whole team fired questions at her. “What was she like? What was she wearing? Did she mention Ryan [Gosling]?” They were the most common ones asked. In response, Jodie says Eva was “lovely and so down to earth”. She’s also “absolutely stunning” in real life and – most excitingly – when Jodie asked Eva a question that mentioned her “husband” Ryan, Eva did not correct her! You can read all of this and more – including about Eva’s interest in cleaning products! – in our exclusive interview starting on page 16.

A source told Us Weekly that Davidson, 29, and 31-year-old Ratajkowski “have been talking for a couple of months now”, but are still “in the very early stages”. “They both really like each other.

As for the funnyman,…

You look amazing and it looks just what I imagined it would look like, it’s perfect,” she said.

After five years as host of The Project, Lisa Wilkinson is walking away from the show. “I have to be honest with you,” she said on-air. “The last six months have not been easy. And the relentless, targeted toxicity by some sections of the media has taken a toll, not just on me, but on people I love.” Wilkinson was referring to the backlash she faced after her Logies award acceptance speech in June, which referenced her interview with Brittany Higgins, caused the delay of Bruce Lehrmann’s rape trial. The presenter’s exit follows the departure of colleague Carrie Bickmore, who last month announced she was leaving the show in December after 13 years. Wilkinson told viewers that she was discussing “exciting work ideas” with Network 10. “I have had a…

This year has been a big one for Florence Pugh – the actress killing it in movies such Puss in Boots and Don’t Worry Darling, but she’s also been involved in her fair share of dramas off-screen. Rumours began circulating a rift had formed between her and Don’t Worry Darling director, Olivia Wilde, and her split from boyfriend Zach Braff was announced in August. Much of her time during that relationship was devoted to publicly defending their 21-year age gap. Now, Pugh is relieved attention is returning to her on-screen work. She’s winning rave reviews for her performance in thriller, The Wonder, in which she plays a nurse sent to an Irish village in 1862 to observe a young girl who’s seemingly able to survive without eating. “This movie is…

Over the course of her career, British actress Carey Mulligan has never shied away from confronting roles. However, she says portraying real-life journalist Megan Twohey, who helped bring down sexual predator Harvey Weinstein, was a role that “terrified” her. “It’s a daunting prospect to play anyone really, let alone to play real heroes of our society,” Mulligan, 37, says. “So I was terrified the whole time.” Mulligan says she was drawn to the role because She Said portrays women as “heroic”. “The film is full of women who are heroic. From the survivors and witnesses to everyone at The New York Times who made this happen.” She adds, “The idea of what Megan does is so fascinating to me. That she can just ring someone up and say,…

When Sarah Jessica Parker reprised her role as Carrie Bradshaw in And Just Like That, one of the most talked about episodes was when plastic surgeon Dr Paul David (played by Jonathan Groff ) encourages her to have a “little refresh”. After a lot of deliberation, Carrie finally rejects the idea, deciding that she’s perfectly happy to stay the way she is. “And just like that, I remembered how much I loved the last 15 years,” the iconic TV character explains. In real life, SJP also wants to change the way that we talk about ageing. It’s the reason she signed on as the voice of the RoC Look Forward Project campaign, which aims to show women that getting older is something that can be embraced unapologetically, and with optimism.…

who’s news When Liam Hemsworth and Gabriella Brooks stepped out for the Sydney premiere of Poker Face this month, we were left with so many questions. Did they even break up? If so, for how long? And when did they get back together? Either way, seeing them together after a long red-carpet hiatus was a happy surprise. Hemsworth, 32, looked handsome as he posed alongside Brooks, 24. Rumours about a possible split first circulated earlier this year, but they dispelled those whispers with the November 15 red-carpet date night. His family will also be pleased they’re still on track, three years after they fell for one another. A source told E!

From the outside, Chris Hemsworth has it all. He has a net worth close to $200 million, three happy and healthy kids, a loving and beautiful wife, and a mammoth home close to one of Australia’s most incredible beaches. But what does it all matter if you can’t remember any of it? “I’m going to have a good chunk off”– HEMSWORTH That’s the question the 39-year-old superstar posed to himself after learning he carries two copies of the APOE4 gene – one from his mother and the other from his father. The double-up means he’s eight to 10 times more likely than the average person to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease – the same degenerative illness his grandfather suffers. To put the numbers into perspective, around 2 per cent of…

Survival was the only prerogative for Dr Karima Hamed Farayabi, as she was hurried by security from her Kabul home on August 15, 2021 with nothing but her handbag and two children in tow. As the former Afghan Minister of Economy, Karima was well known in Afghanistan and for her, a highly educated politician, medical doctor and female activist, this wasn’t the first time she had been targeted by the Taliban – but this was the most frightening. “Shortly after the Taliban returned to power [in 2021], I received a threatening message on my personal mobile phone. I was shaking, feeling cold and shivering a lot,” she shares with WHO. “I didn’t want my kids to know. It was very tough.” There was no going back for Karima as more…

ARIES MAR. 20–APR. 18 You might be due for a travel or study adventure. Are you tired or uninspired? It may be hard to tell the difference. One thing is for certain, you likely have too many things on your plate, so reassess your situation. If you haven’t begun already, start reducing tasks.

When was the last time you laughed until you cried? This happened when my friend brought over his new puppy to our apartment. The puppy came inside and was having a lovely time sniffing around his new surroundings, when out of the corner of my eye I saw the pup squatting – he was taking a poo on our clean carpet! But it was my friend’s reaction to it that was the funniest. He ran over and tried to cup his hand under the puppy’s bum while also running the dog outside. [Roommate and co-star] Matt [Evans] and I were in hysterics, we couldn’t talk we were laughing so hard. Last book you read? I’m currently reading Interviews with Elia Kazan by Jeff Young – it’s such a wonderful book…
