      Stunning style, ‘golden ratio’ face & Emmy-nominated roles… 3 reasons why Sydney Sweeney is pure class as she’s slammed

      by

      SYDNEY SWEENEY has had a meteoric rise to fame and is drop-dead gorgeous – but that isn’t enough to impress one Hollywood producer.Carol Baum, who lectures at a US university, said of the 26-year-old film star: “There’s an actress who everybody loves now: Sydney Sweeney. I don’t get Sydney Sweeney . . . She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?”Stunner Sydney Sweeney has had a meteoric rise to fameCredit: RexProducer Carol Baum has slammed Sweeney saying ‘She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?’Credit: GettyBaum, who produced Eighties thriller Dead Ringers and Nineties hit Father Of The Bride, made the comments during a film screening.She also told the audience that she had watched Sydney’s rom-com Anyone But You on a plane and found it “unwatchable”.Representatives for Sydney, who also produced the 2023 film, starring Glen Powell, hit back: “How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman. If that’s what she’s learned in her decades in the industry and feels is appropriate to teach, that’s shameful.“To unjustly disparage a fellow female producer speaks volumes about Ms Baum’s character.”READ MORE CELEB NEWSHere we show why Sydney is rightfully one Hollywood’s hottest properties.Swooney bod‘She’s got style, elegance and sex appeal – the whole package’ – by Clemmie FieldsendLIKE blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe before her, Sydney knows what she is doing when it comes to fashion.As a general red carpet rule she makes the most of her tiny waist and bigger bust in corseted or low-cut, figure-hugging dresses.Most read in CelebritySydney is one of the sexiest stars in HollywoodCredit: Capture Media AgencyThe actress knows what she is doing when it comes to fashionSydney Sweeney fans concerned for star as she appears in ‘weird’ ad with ‘uncomfortable’ messageAt this year’s Vanity Fair Oscar Party she slipped into a plunging, white satin gown that bore a striking resemblance to the Some Like It Hot star’s iconic dress.The gown was actually worn by Angelina Jolie to the Academy Awards 20 years earlier.So big shoes that Sydney successfully filled.But the US actor hasn’t always been so confident with her curvy figure.She told Glamour magazine that she was insecure about her “big boobs” in high school and planned to have a reduction once she turned 18.Sydney is thankful her mum talked her out of the operation, saying her breasts are her “best friends”.She is now an expert at tasteful décolletage, never flashing too much or wearing garish styles to grab headlines.She’s just nailing it with glam gowns which complement her shape and, more importantly, make her feel good.I love her dress code. She’s got elegance, style and sex appeal.And, unlike Baum, she encourages other women to appreciate their looks – what’s not to like.Sydney has said: “I find empowerment through embracing the body I have.”That sense of self-awareness and maturity in your twenties isn’t something to be sniffed at. It doesn’t hit most women until they are in their forties, or even older.Sure, she looks a knockout and scientifically near perfect, but it is the conviction that comes with embracing how she looks that gives her the wow factor.And if she’s teaching that to younger or older women, then good for her.Swooney face‘Her proportions fit the golden ratio’ – by Miranda KnoxWHILE Baum reckons Sydney isn’t pretty, science says otherwise.Experts claim the actress has a “golden ratio” face, meaning she is more attractive to the human eye.Scientists claim Sweeney has a ‘golden ratio’ facePlastic surgeon Onur Gilleard, who has studied the science behind what makes a face aesthetically pleasing, says Sydney is practically perfect.The co-founder of New You Harley Street says her facial features are symmetrical and closely aligned, with perfect harmony and proportion.He says: “The ideal facial proportions, which can be applied both horizontally and vertically, are referred to as the golden ratio.“The length of the forehead should match the length of the nose, which in turn should equal the distance between the bottom of the nose and the chin.“Ideal lip dimensions include a width 1.6 times that of the nose and a ratio of the vertical height of the upper lip to that of the lower lip of 1:1.6.“The ideal chin position is considered to be 1mm behind the vertical line dropped from the upper lip.“Finally, high, well-defined cheekbones are a significant indicator of female beauty.“When analysing Sydney’s face, nearly all of her facial features adhere to these golden ratios, which is why she is referred to as a ‘classic beauty’.”Swooney roles‘Versatile star’s name will be in lights a lot longer than Baum’ – by Dulcie PearceSYDNEY is not just a pretty face.Having seen several of her big – and small – screen performances, there is no doubt that she has the ability to fill them.Sydney played the role of promiscuous teen Cassie Howard in drama EuphoriaCredit: AlamyThe actress played Olivia Mossbacher in the first series of Sky’s comedy-drama series The White LotusCredit: Home Box OfficeOne that really stuck with me was her portrayal of Reality Winner, a real-life whistle-blower, who released US government intelligence and whose five-year sentence was the longest ever imposed for the offence.The entire film is a re-enactment of the FBI interview that took place in a sweaty, disused bedroom in Reality’s house.Without a scrap of make-up, her hair tied back and wearing an unflattering outfit, Sydney is hypnotising in the role.While the film didn’t do much at the box office, it won her critical acclaim.And let’s not forget her scene-stealing turn as eye-rolling Olivia Mossbacher in the first series of Sky’s comedy-drama series The White Lotus.The spoiled, vengeful daughter act earned her an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series in 2022.In fact, she was up for two Emmy Awards that year, having also been acknowledged for her role as promiscuous teen Cassie Howard in TV drama Euphoria.And no genre is off limits, as the versatile actress plays a nun in this year’s gorefest, Immaculate, and was chosen to star in the music video for Rolling Stones single Angry, from their recent album Hackney Diamonds.She may have dipped her toe in the world of Marvel, with the disastrous Madame Web, but at her age she is allowed a few duffs.READ MORE SUN STORIESNot many, though, if women like Baum are on the warpath, doing down the looks and ability of her own sex.But Sydney’s name will be in lights a lot longer.The Rolling Stones shared a Sydney Sweeney-featured video for new song ‘Angry’Credit: The Rolling StonesSydney in new movie ImmaculateCredit: Alamy More

      Suri Cruise, 18, has shunned dad Tom for years after being gifted millions in spoilt childhood… can they ever heal rift?

      by

      AT the age of three, she was named “Hollywood’s Hottest Tot” by Forbes and had a designer wardrobe worth £2 million, complete with sparkly kitten heels.But Suri Cruise, who turns 18 today, couldn’t have a more different life now after she shunned her father Tom, 61, and the limelight, following his divorce from Katie Holmes, 45, when she was just five years old.Suri Cruise was the most famous toddler in HollywoodCredit: RexShe turns 18 years old today and has a completely different lifeCredit: SplashHer parents Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise divorced when she was five years oldCredit: EPAKatie gained sole custody of Suri after the 2012 split, along with a generous settlement which saw Tom paying a reported £325,000 a year for his daughter’s care.As rumours swirled about the cause of the split — with the finger pointed firmly at Tom’s association with the religion Scientology — Suri and Katie went off radar for years, rebuilding their lives in New York, 2,400 miles away from Los Angeles-based Tom.Under the watchful eye of her protective mum, she hasn’t spoken to or seen her movie-star dad since Christmas 2013.But with any deal made between Katie and Tom expiring today as Suri turns 18, will she finally break her silence on their estranged relationship?READ MORE SHOWBIZ FEATURESWhirlwind romanceWhen Tom and Katie first got engaged in June 2005, after an eight-week whirlwind romance where he flew her off for dinner dates in his private jet, it seemed like a dream romance for both stars.Tom famously jumped up and down on Oprah Winfrey’s sofa declaring his love for Katie that year.And Katie, while previously engaged to actor Chris Klein in the early 2000s, had even told Seventeen magazine: “I think every girl dreams about her wedding. I used to think I was going to marry Tom Cruise.”Suri was born seven months before their lavish wedding in 2006, which took place at a castle in Rome, costing over $3million, in front of celebrity pals including Jennifer Lopez, Will Smith and Jim Carrey.Most read in CelebrityThe young tot quickly became the most famous child in Hollywood, making her debut on the cover of Vanity Fair just a few months later and being constantly photographed.While many kids grow up sharing a room with their siblings, Suri had an entire wing of her parents’ Los Angeles mansion to herself, decked out with a state-of-the-art music system and home cinema – and a personal chef on call at all times.Tom Cruise uses helicopters to fly cast & crew over closed M25 in daring bid to film Mission Impossible 8For her second birthday, Suri’s sole wish was to “wear a butterfly dress”.Her parents took her typical childlike request much further, splashing out £60,000 on a birthday party for just 24 guests, which included a four-tier birthday cake and the casual release of hundreds of live butterflies.She hasn’t spoken to her dad since 2013Credit: AlamySuri had an extremely privileged upbringingCredit: RexSuri with dad Tom on a chartered 60ft power yachtCredit: AlamyBy the age of three, Suri had no official bedtime – and a wardrobe estimated at £2million which included sparkly kitten heels.In 2009, she was seen on a five-hour shopping spree with her mum and an entourage of bodyguards, buying clothes and toys costing just under £6,000. But shortly after Suri turned five, TomKat and Suri’s seemingly perfect life came crashing down, as Katie left Tom – with reports claiming she wanted to take her daughter away from Scientology.What is Scientology?
      THROUGHOUT the world, there are roughly 4,200 religions and among them is Scientology, founded in the 1950s by the late Dr. Lafayette Ronald Hubbard.
      By definition, Scientology is, “the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, universes and other life.”
      Like Christianity, Scientology is another religion but instead of focusing on a God, those who practice focus on the science of the mind with the goal of spiritual enlightenment and freedom.
      Those who believe in Scientology are known as Scientologists – they believe in an immortal spirit and in improving their spirit while on Earth.
      The religion does not focus on a Heaven or Hell, instead it focuses on the spirit and mind.
      When the first Scientology church was open in 1954, it was met with backlash in regard to its legitimacy as those in the medical community have long challenged the ideas behind it.
      Despite its reputation, CNN reported that the religion has over 10,000 churches, missions and groups that operate out of 167 countries.
      In 2017, at least 4.4 million people were signing up every year.
      Actress Leah Remini was also known for practicing the religion but in 2013, she announced that she had left the church and later released a book and documentary series about her experiences.
      Like Remini, actress Laura Prepon had also practiced the religion until she revealed in August 2021 that she quit.

      Tom was filming in Iceland in 2012 when Katie phoned to say she wanted a divorce and would be taking their daughter away from LA and the Scientology Celebrity Centre, a hotel-style complex, where they lived.The terms of their divorce settlement are ultra secret but documents show Tom agreed to pay Katie £325,000 a year until Suri turned 18, as well as all of his daughter’s expenses, including college fees.Katie is also reportedly believed to have signed multiple non-disclosure documents that prevent her from ever talking about her marriage to Tom and her time inside Scientology.However, unlike her mother, Suri, a now legally-declared adult by the state of New York, is in theory allowed to speak freely about her father and his beliefs.A source previously told MailOnline: “Suri does not know her father anymore and she has not spent time with him in a decade.”She does not go to see his movies and he has no part in her life.”Suri would often be seen on shopping sprees for very expensive clothesCredit: AlamyTom is close to his children with Nicole Kidman, who are said to be ScientologistsCredit: GettyTom is still close to his older children – Isabella, 31, who lives a quiet life in London, and son Connor, 29, a fishing guide in Florida – who are both believed to be involved in Scientology.He adopted them with second wife, actress Nicole Kidman, 56, who filed for divorce in 2001 after 11 years of marriage and has reportedly not spoken to Tom for more than 20 years.Like Katie and Suri, she cut all ties with the actor.However, despite neither Isabella or Connor having been seen in public with Nicole in recent years, it does seem like there is some communication between them, as Isabella has ‘liked’ her mum’s recent Instagram posts.Suri’s new lifeAs soon as she divorced Tom, Katie returned all of Suri’s designer giftsCredit: GettyShe’s much more down-to-earth nowCredit: BackGridMeanwhile, Suri’s life couldn’t be more different now.A far cry from being “Hollywood’s Hottest Tot,” Suri has rarely been seen in public since she moved away from Hollywood to Manhattan, New York, and had a much more down-to-earth upbringing.As soon as her parents’ divorce was finalised – and Katie had got custody – she gave Suri’s life an overhaul, putting a stop to the luxury clothes, even “returning unsolicited gifts and loans from designers”.Before they split, Suri was often pictured wearing nail varnish and lipstick, but that was also stopped by Katie once they’d moved away from Tom.A source told Vogue: “All that inappropriate dress-up and makeup was down to Tom.”[Suri] has to make her bed, she has to take her dishes to the sink, she has to put her clothes in the laundryKatie HolmesKatie once revealed that they have a very structured schedule at home, complete with a list of chores Suri must do.’’She has to make her bed, she has to take her dishes to the sink, she has to put her clothes in the laundry,” she told Marie Claire.After being homeschooled at first, Suri was sent to a Catholic school, instead of attending a Scientology school like her older half-siblings. Her school was high on discipline, including attending mass every Thursday.In a bid to keep her feet on the ground, Katie has ensured Suri has also spent plenty of time in her own hometown of Ohio, surrounded by her grandparents and aunts.“They are a close-knit family and have done everything they can to be there for her and to help with her upbringing,” a source told US magazine.Katie and Suri have even given back, volunteering together in a refugee camp, in Greece, in 2019. At the time, Katie said: “I enjoy volunteering with my daughter and hearing her point of view and listening to her suggestions on how we can help.”Suri – who is celebrating her 18th birthday in New York while her dad films an upcoming Mission Impossible movie in London – is now thinking about her future.She is said to be thinking about going to fashion college in New York, “leaning towards” Fordham University – with Katie heavily involved in helping her daughter with the application.READ MORE SUN STORIESA source told the Mail: “Suri is applying to schools all over the place. [Katie] really does want her to stay in New York so they can be close to each other. “Katie takes great pride in her but is also extremely overprotective.” More

      Jimmy Carr’s changing face as he jokes ‘little original remains’ & reveals his surgery ‘red line’ ahead of Netflix show

      by

      HE famously joked about being unable to be cremated due to having had “too much plastic surgery” and that standing next to a naked flame would be “very dangerous”.There’s no denying Jimmy Carr’s appearance has drastically changed from his younger years and the Channel 4 comedian has often been the first to admit it. Jimmy Carr, pictured recently, has joked that there is ‘very little’ of his original face leftCredit: RexJimmy pictured in 2006 early into his TV careerCredit: GettyThe 51-year-old, whose new Netflix comedy special Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer was released today, has previously confessed to having had a hair transplant, veneers and Botox injections. He said “very little” of his original face still exists due to extensive cosmetic work and spoke about having “gone a bit crazy” during lockdown – admitting it was “a proper midlife crisis”.Last month, the 8 Out Of 10 Cats host revealed the one cosmetic procedure his surgeon refused to perform – despite claiming a hit singer previously underwent the op.On the Happy Hallow Jeans podcast, Jimmy recalled: “I’d asked him about buccal fat reduction, one of the guys from One Direction had it done, I think it’s Liam [Payne].READ MORE ON SHOWBIZ“I’m sure you can get a picture up, but they take out the fat there [points to the sides of his mouth] so, you go from having, I mean I’ve always had chubby little cheeks.“It doesn’t matter how much weight I lose. I could be 50kg and I would still have chubby cheeks. But they take out the fat from here [pointing to his cheeks] so that you look chiselled and model-y (sic).”Jimmy said his plastic surgeon was hesitant about the procedure due to patients looking worse in their fifties and often asked to have it reversed. He added that the medical professional often told him “nope, we’re not doing that” after hearing his suggestions, much to his amusement.Most read in CelebrityDespite that, Jimmy looks very different to when he started out on TV back in the early Noughties and, by his own admission, has had “everything done”.Here we look at how his face changed over the years as he sought to slow down the ageing process. BotoxAmar Suchde, founder of AMS Aesthetics, told The Sun in 2021 that a large part of his transformation is down to shedding some timber.Jimmy Carr slammed for making ‘vile and unacceptable remarks about deaf woman’ during gigIt’s clear looking back at older photos from the Nineties – when he sported long hair – and the early noughties that the comedian has lost weight over the years. The comedian attributed it to intermittent fasting and according to Amar wrinkles from shedding pounds led him to Botox use. He said: “Jimmy has clearly lost a lot of weight over the years.”Amar added that he believes the comic has regular Botox treatment on his forehead to remove some of his lines to make him look more fresh. Jimmy – who was born James Anthony Patrick Carr – when he was a childCredit: Planet PhotosA throwback shot of Jimmy which appeared on Big Fat Quiz of the 90s in 2012Credit: Twitter/@jimmycarrHe added: “There still seems to be some movement which may indicate a smaller dosage such as that used in Baby Botox.”Speaking on the subject of Botox, Jimmy quipped his face was “like Trigger’s broom from Only Fools and Horses, very little of the original is still there”.Hair transplantJimmy explained he had the hair transplant procedure after worrying he was beginning to resemble a “snooker-playing vampire”. He detailed how the procedure worked, saying: “So what happened was my hair was socially distancing from my forehead and I’d had enough of it. He’s done really well to maintain the character of his faceAmar SuchdeAMS Aesthetics founder”I shaved my head and what they do is take hairs from the back of your head and they put them on the front.”Basically I had enough hair, it was just in the wrong place. It was a bit of redistribution.”In a blog post, Harley Street Hair Clinic confirmed Jimmy had Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), which they said leads to “full growth coming through within about 12 months after treatment”.They noted that the comedian’s decision to have the procedure during lockdown was well-timed as it meant he could “recover a few months out of the public eye before he could show off his new look”. Under-eye fillers and laser treatmentsAmar previously told us Jimmy wears a considerable amount of make-up on set and in shoots, but it’s believed he’s had under-eye fillers to slow the signs of ageing.He added that he may well have also had fillers in his cheeks to replace any facial fat lost during his weight loss journey.Jimmy back in 2014 after losing weight with receding his hair line on showCredit: Getty – ContributorJimmy back in 2020 when he sported short hair beforeCredit: BBCJimmy Carr in 2021 after undergoing a hair transplant and veneersCredit: Rex”Increasing amounts of men are seeking masculinisation aesthetic treatments; focusing particularly on the jawline, to give it more width and make it more aligned and Jimmy may well have had this treatment,” he explained.”His skin looks fantastic and I suspect he’s had a number of laser skin resurfacing treatments to give it that youthful  glow. “It also looks like he may have had skin tightening treatments and under eye fillers.”Amar said he believes Jimmy has done really well to “maintain the character” of his face and not take aesthetic treatments too far. “Rather, he’s just kept up with little tweakments to maintain a fresh look as he is in the spotlight,” he said.Maintaining is the thing, I don’t think there’s anything you can do plastic surgery wise, or augmentation wise, that makes you look better. You can just sort of stay the same, that’s what you can hope for.Jimmy CarrIn 2021, the specialist reckoned the work Jimmy would have cost in the region of £1,000 to £3,000.Bright white teethHarley Street dentist Dr Anjum Jahan reckons Jimmy has helped combat ageing with some clever dental work. She thinks the comedian is likely to have had Chairside Teeth whitening – light-activated whitening – which would set him back around £500-800.In 2021, Dr Jahan said: “This is the most likely option as his teeth are a bright white.”He may also have opted for veneers which is a layer of material placed over each tooth to protect it from damage.VeneersJimmy pictured in 2016 after having veneersCredit: GettyJimmy with a fuller head of hair back in 2021Credit: RexThe comedian is visibly different in a poster for his 2022 show I Can See Your VoiceCredit: BBCShe said: “It is very difficult to tell whether the veneers are made from composite or porcelain. “If they are composite, then the price can range between £250-£500 per tooth. “If made of porcelain price can be £650-£1000 per tooth.”Dr Jahan estimated that Jimmy is likely to have had more than £7,000 of dental work back in 2021. In recent years, the comedian said he is more focussed on maintaining his look rather than trying to change his appearance.He added: “Maintaining is the thing, I don’t think there’s anything you can do plastic surgery wise, or augmentation wise, that makes you look better.

      Inside Hollywood superstar Zendaya’s quiet life in Britain after THAT threesome trailer sent film fans into meltdown

      by

      SHE has reached such a stratospheric level of fame that Zendaya is exclusively referred to by her first name only.But the Hollywood beauty is not at risk of falling into the trappings of superstardom — as she has swapped sunny California for good old Blighty.Zendaya has become one of Hollywood’s most famous women in recent yearsCredit: GettyZendaya is dating actor Tom Holland who she met on the set of 2016’s Spider-Man: HomecomingCredit: GettySince shacking up with Tom Holland in West London, Zendaya is more likely to be spotted shopping at Waitrose than at an A-list partyCredit: MJ-Pictures.comSince shacking up with British Spider-Man actor Tom Holland in South-West London, the 27-year-old is more likely to be spotted shopping at ­Waitrose than at an A-list party.Despite her scene-stealing role in Dune: Part Two — the highest-grossing film of 2024 at the worldwide box office — the actress is now said to spend her free time on guided tours of Hampton Court Palace and popping to trendy London bakery Gail’s.As if to hammer home her soft spot for England, Zendaya stepped out in a Wimbledon-themed dress at the UK premiere of her new movie, Challengers, last week.Released on April 26, she plays Tashi Donaldson, a former tennis player turned coach, who finds herself in a love triangle with The Crown’s Josh O’Connor and Tony Award-nominee Mike Faist.read more on zendayaThe trailer sent the internet into meltdown with a steamy scene of the trio getting intimate in a hotel room.A source who has worked with Zendaya says the star picks her roles carefully to avoid being typecast.Now worth an estimated £17million, the former Disney Channel star was 19 when she played MJ in the first of three Spider-Man movies alongside Tom as the superhero.The source told The Sun: “Once she signs on to a job, she gives it her all.Most read in Celebrity“On Challengers that means graphic sex scenes and some heavy and ­emotionally complex dialogue as well.“She’s earning a reputation for never ‘phoning it in’ and always giving 110 per cent, and that’s going to make her a lot richer if she keeps picking hits at the rate she has.”Zendaya stuns in futuristic fashion, Dune Part Two premiereAt the premiere, Zendaya revealed it was a “challenge” to play Tashi.She said: “She is so complex, complicated and messy, and I appreciate that about a character.“I don’t think you always love her. I don’t think you always hate her either, and that was my challenge — to make sure that she has the fragility and sensitivity as well as harshness and directness.”Zendaya added: “I don’t necessarily always play the good guy.“I like to believe I have characters that are multi-faceted and multi- dimensional in some kind of way, and I think she is the most unapologetically cruel and direct character I’ve ever played.”The starlet, whose full name is Zendaya Maree Stoermer Coleman, grew up in Oakland, California, with her parents Kazembe Ajamu Coleman and Claire Stoermer, both teachers.Asked why she chose to drop her last name, she said in 2016: “I just thought it was cool, like Cher or Prince.”Zendaya was 14 when she shot to fame in the Disney Channel’s Shake It Up, playing Rocky Blue.Yet she has escaped the so-called “Disney Curse,” which has seen many former stars, including Britney Spears and Demi Lovato, battle mental health issues, meltdowns and addictions.Zendaya credits her parents for instilling “core values” that helped her to avoid a “wild” phase so often associated with young stars.I have complicated feelings about kids and fame and being in the ­public eye, or being a child actorZendayaOn growing up in the public eye and becoming the family’s main breadwinner, she told Vogue: “I don’t know how much of a choice I had.“I have complicated feelings about kids and fame and being in the ­public eye, or being a child actor.“We’ve seen a lot of cases of it being detrimental. “I felt like I was thrust into a very adult position: I was becoming the breadwinner of my family very early. “There was a lot of role-reversal happening, and just kind of becoming grown, really.”It gave the teenager the courage to stand up for herself on set, bravely telling producers she would not have her first kiss on screen.Zendaya recalled: “I remember being on Shake It Up and being like, ‘I’m not gonna do this. “I’m going to kiss him on the cheek because I haven’t been kissed yet, so I don’t want that kiss to be on camera’.”And during talks for Disney’s 2015 spy series, KC Undercover, the actress — whose dad is African-American — fought for more representation on the channel, insisting producers cast black actors to play her on-screen family.She has said: “That was my first time realising that I could have a little bit of power and request things that I wanted.“It was hugely important to me that it was a black family being showcased.”Already a successful TV star in the US when she signed up to Marvel reboot Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017, Zendaya watched boyfriend Tom catapulted to superstardom.ROMANCE UNDER WRAPSShe has said: “We were both very, very young, but my career was already kind of going, and his changed overnight.“One day you’re a kid and you’re at the pub with your friends, and then the next day you’re Spider-Man.“I definitely watched his life kind of change in front of him.”Greatest Showman star Zendaya is said to have been a positive influence on Tom over the years as he played the superhero in two more stand- alone films and Marvel’s Avengers.On the couple — who kept their romance under wraps for four years until a fan caught them kissing in Tom’s sports car in Los Angeles — our source says: “Tom’s head got a little swollen after he started having all these huge superhero hits and, ultimately, it’s been Zendaya who has brought him back down to Earth and really transformed him into a humble, grateful and mature person in the process.“They’re together all the time and extremely supportive of one another, but you can tell that it’s Zendaya who’s steering the relationship in this steady, stable direction.“She just hasn’t let childhood success turn her into a damaged monster in early adulthood and is very good tempered and agreeable. “People love working with her for the calmness, professionalism and integrity she brings to every project she signs up for.”It is this professionalism that led to Zendaya making history in 2020.At 24, she became the youngest recipient of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series for her role in HBO’s Euphoria.The teen drama saw Zendaya play drug addict Rue Bennett, who hits rock bottom as she goes through the painful physical and mental effects of withdrawal.The trailer for Challengers sent the internet into meltdown with a steamy scene of Zendaya and two men getting intimate in a hotel roomCredit: Warner BrothersZendaya had a scene-stealing role in box office smash Dune: Part TwoCredit: GettyTwo years later, after the release of the second series, Zendaya won another Emmy, making her the youngest two-time winner and the first black woman to win the award for lead actress in a drama series twice. In her acceptance speech, she said: “My greatest wish for Euphoria is that it could help heal people.”She has since starred as Chani in the hugely popular film versions of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi Dune novels, alongside Timothee Chalamet, Josh Brolin and Jason Momoa.The second movie, Dune: Part Two, has taken £480million at the box office since its release in March, breaking several box office records.Following its success, director Denis Villeneuve has signed up to shoot a third movie.The films have helped Zendaya’s Instagram following jump to a whopping 184million.Despite her megastar status, she remains humble — and that means doing her own grocery shop. Locals have spotted Zendaya with wet hair and wearing a casual jumper and jeans at Waitrose, in New Malden, South-West London.She lives with Tom in a £2.5million house in nearby Richmond, a few miles from Kingston-Upon-Thames, where Tom grew up.I don’t necessarily want my kids to have to deal with this fameZendayaAnd the actress has even been trying to get to grips with Cockney rhyming slang.She told us: “I love the ­British accent, but as much as Tom tries to explain it to me, I will never understand rhyming slang.“Like I understand the concept — but what do apples and pears have to do with stairs?“It’s cute when he tells me all the different phrases — but I really don’t get it.”Having remained coy about their relationship over the years, in a recent joint interview with the US and British versions of Vogue magazine, Zendaya did discuss the prospect of starting a family.She said: “I don’t necessarily want my kids to have to deal with this fame.

      Jamie Laing makes startling confession about sex with wife Sophie Habboo and reveals they’re having marriage counselling

      by

      HE’S only been married to his stunning wife for a year but Radio 1’s Jamie Laing admits things have already fizzled out in the bedroom.Former Made In Chelsea co-stars Jamie and Sophie Habboo tied the knot in London and went on to have a huge ­celeb-packed bash in Marbella, Spain.Radio 1’s Jamie Laing has admitted he is average in the bedroomCredit: PALaing is married to fellow Made In Chelsea star Sophie HabbooCredit: RexBut the 35-year-old jokes that he “can’t be bothered” to perform any more.In a hilariously candid interview, he confessed: “Sophie did say I was bog standard at sex and that is probably a fair description. You get worse as you get married. You become lazy.“I used to start doing joined-up handwriting then I thought, ‘I can’t be bothered with that as it’s quicker for me to not do it joined up’, I’m a bit like that in the bedroom. I don’t give up half way but I do remember that once I rolled on top of Sophie and she said, ‘Oh, get on with it’.”But while Jamie may be letting things slide between the sheets, the presenter makes sure he doesn’t slack off in their relationship.READ MORE CELEB NEWSHe suggested the couple start seeing a marriage counsellor and they have therapy together twice a month.He explained: “I said to Sophie, ‘Look, 40 or 50 per cent of marriages end in divorce, I think it’ll be really good to do’, so we still go every other week and I think ­therapy brings self-awareness.“It opens you up and makes you more empathetic. It makes you basically not become a sociopath and it allows you to have another opinion.‘She’s my ride or die’“You’ve got to communicate ­for ever, otherwise these things boil up, and going to therapy gives us the best chance of surviving this up-and-down life we’re going to have. So twice a month we sit down for an hour, and I’ve learned lots of lessons.Most read in Celebrity“I found out that most of the time my wife is right, and that I’m very lucky to be with her, because my brain is all over the place 24/7.“It’s made me calmer, with Sophie especially, as I’m generally more volatile than her.”Inside Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo’s incredible £—a-night Honeymoon villa after disastrous journey, The couple have also learnt that it’s not just about how you get on — but how you resolve things.Jamie added: “The most important thing is to really understand why you’re fighting and to decide if it’s really important or not.“And if they are feeling so ­adamant about one thing, maybe try to see their point of view. But the biggest thing is if you’re in the wrong, say sorry, which I’m very good at.”She is the kindest, most empathetic person I’ve ever met and she does not have a bad bone in her bodyJamie and fashion designer Sophie, 30, met on the E4 reality show, cementing their love on a 2019 series trip in South Africa.He said: “We started off as best friends, then about three years into our friendship we were on holiday together and she came out in a bikini. I was like, ‘Oh my God, you’re super hot’, and I was suddenly like, ‘Oh my God, wait, you’re not just my friend’, although I don’t think it was quite as profound a moment for her.“I think for her it was, ‘Why is my friend staring at me?’”The pair host the Newlyweds ­podcast together — where they take a warts-and-all approach to discussing their relationship.And it is clear Jamie still dotes on Sophie.He gushes: “She is the kindest, most empathetic person I’ve ever met and she does not have a bad bone in her body.“We tease and make fun of each other but there’s also a huge amount of respect. And the best thing about being married is that you’re part of a tribe. She’s my ride or die and being married to her has also stopped me window shopping.“Before, if you’re in a relationship, you can very easily go ‘You’re p***ing me off today. You know what? I’m done here’. But when you’re married, it’s very much like you’re a team.”Jamie also leans on his best friend Spencer Matthews, 35, for support.The former lothario married Vogue Williams, 38, in 2018 and the pair now have three children.Jamie said: “Spencer is the greatest dad and husband. Him and Vogue are amazing. They’re incredible.“The fact they’ve got three kids and they’re doing all the stuff they’re doing and working so hard, I mean, it’s crazy. They said to us, ‘Just make sure you love each other all the time’. That’s great advice, as it’s really important to separate the ­hectic madness of life and spend quality time with one another.”The pair got married in 2023Credit: GettyJamie and his co-host Vick Hope, middle, took over Radio 1’s Drivetime Show last monthCredit: James Watkins/BBCLike his former Made In Chelsea partner in crime, Jamie hopes to have his own family one day soon.He jokes: “I want so many kids that at Christmas I could create a sleigh and attach them all to it and go, ‘Mush’, and they can drag me down the garden.“If I have a son, I’m going to name him Blaze Laing, so he’ll sound like a porn star or a race car driver.“I said to Sophie, ‘If we have kids, what do you want them to have of mine?’ and she said, ‘Just your personality. That’s it’.“And I said, ‘Not my looks, my eyes?’ and she said, ‘Nope, nothing. Just your personality’.”Jamie and his co-host Vick Hope, 34, took over Radio 1’s Drivetime Show last month.And Jamie, who competed in Strictly in 2019, insists that Sophie is not worried about him working so closely with gorgeous Vick.He said: “I did Strictly Come Dancing and there were no issues there.So I think being with Vick is fine. And even if I did have an inkling towards Vick, I don’t think I’m her type.”And Vick’s superstar DJ husband, Calvin Harris, 40, clearly thinks there is nothing to worry about.Therapy opens you up and makes you more empathetic. It makes you basically not become a sociopath and it allows you to have another opinionJamieJamie admitted: “Calvin saw a picture of me at the Brits and Vick went, ‘Oh, that’s Jamie, my co-host’, and Calvin went, ‘Oh I know him, but who is that standing next to him?’ and Vick went, ‘That’s his wife’, and Calvin said, ‘Oh, I thought he was gay’.”As the great-great grandson of 1st Baronet Sir Alexander Grant, who created the McVitie’s biscuit empire, Jamie has received a backlash for being “too posh” for Radio 1.But he said: “There’s a real problem with the class system in the UK. If my only hurdle that I have to jump over is that I’m posh, then I think I’m doing OK. I am posh and if people like that, great. If they don’t like that, I can’t do anything about it.”And it turns out there are plenty who enjoy listening to him, as last month Jamie launched his new celebrity interview podcast Great Company, chatting with stars including singer Paloma Faith, TV’s Jay Blades, comic Jo Brand and magician Dynamo.He said: “As a kid I used to do chat shows with teddy bears. I feel pretty blessed, pretty lucky and pretty happy. What I’ve realised is that happiness comes from the people you connect with.“I’m very lucky, my family are alive, they’re healthy and well, I have a beautiful wife and great friends.”

      Inside Victoria Beckham’s posh 50th birthday bash with surprisingly ‘casual’ theme, A-list pals and ex of pop superstar

      by

      SHE burst on to the pop scene 28 years ago as one fifth of the all-singing, all-dancing Spice Girls.On Wednesday, Victoria Beckham turns 50 — no longer, perhaps, a “Girl” — but indisputably one of the most successful and influential women on the planet.Victoria Beckham will soon turn 50Credit: GC ImagesPosh will share her birthday with hubby David Beckham and other starsCredit: GettyThe big day itself will be celebrated with family — husband David and the couple’s four kids, Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and Harper, 12 — at their sprawling Cotswolds estate.And next Saturday she has hired an exclusive central London private member’s restaurant, where she will be joined by a tight-knit group of 40 friends and colleagues.Alas, any photographers clamouring around outside hoping for a glimpse of a Spice Girls reunion may be sorely disappointed — only a “couple” of Posh Spice’s old bandmates are expected to attend.There is no theme, besides “smart-casual”, and Victoria — ever the astute businesswoman — will be clad head to toe in her own designs fresh from her autumn/winter ’24 collection.READ MORE ON THE BECKHAMSChampagne, tequila and a selection of fine wines including her favourite Chateau Mouton Rothschild, a snip at £3,000, will be on hand.Last night a source said: “For someone as starry and well-connected as Victoria Beckham, you might expect a suitably extravagant 50th birthday party.But the reality is, at this stage of her life she has nothing to prove and is never happier than when she is surrounded by her close family and friends.“She’s having two bashes, one on the day itself, a small intimate private dinner with family, and then a sit-down dinner with around 40 guests.Most read in Celebrity“Which, for a girl from Goff’s Oak, Herts, is suitably Posh.I was the UK’s top Posh lookalike‘She’s never been fitter’“She’ll be presented with a huge cake after dinner and that’s about as extravagant as it’ll get. David will make a funny but touching speech and there will be photos of Victoria through the decades — all flattering — dotted around.“It’s going to be a really special night, and she is super excited.”Guests expected to attend include Gordon and Tana Ramsay, Eva Longoria, Emma Bunton, Mel C and J-Lo’s singer ex Marc Anthony.David’s best mate Dave Gardner will be there, and her trusty hairdresser, Ken Paves, will be tasked with delivering the “glam”.An Italian chef will feed the 40 — expect Dover sole and steamed broccoli to feature — beneath the high-ceilinged, chandelier-heavy interiors.Her personal trainer, Bobby Rich, will not only be there but he is likely to have trained the fitness fanatic in the morning, ahead of the big day.The club is beloved of the great and good of high society and the location testament to just how far Victoria has come.A host of former PM’s are members and it’s a regular haunt of superstar actors, singers and even some royals.There is also a cigar room, should Posh fancy one after dinner.Fifty is something to be celebrated, this year will mark a real turning point in her professional life tooVictoria’s palWhile she may now be “super excited” for the big bash, that is not to say — like the majority of women — she hasn’t struggled internally with turning 50.A pal adds: “Obviously Victoria is human. No one dreams of hitting the big 5-0, and certainly she’s had to come to terms with this milestone.“But nowadays it’s not the big deal it was once upon a time, just look at Jennifer Lopez, 54, Jennifer Aniston, 55, and Naomi Campbell, 53.“Victoria has never been fitter in her life and looks incredible thanks to weekly facials and a skin regime to rival anyone. She is also as fiercely ambitious as always and has more incredibly exciting work lined up than ever before.“Fifty is something to be celebrated, this year will mark a real turning point in her professional life too.”Certainly she’s not slowing down in her sixth decade.According to pals, her milestone birthday year will see Victoria busier than ever, taking on more projects and working gruelling 14-hour days.Her eponymous fashion brand — which, for 13 long years made a loss year after year — is now turning over a healthy profit.Revenue is up 50 per cent and, thanks to canny marketing — she films her own content from her bedroom, thus saving hundreds of thousands on advertising and PR — has limited overheads.Latest financial accounts showed she netted £200,000 over the course of 2022, which is set to double by this time next year.Her signature £30 Satin Kajal eyeliner from her beauty brand, which comes in 16 colours, has been hailed as the “perfect piece of make-up” by fans.Her inspired make-up tutorials have become a hit on TikTok, opening up her label to an entirely new generation.Actress Eva Longoria is one of many celebs linked to the eventCredit: GettyVictoria’s party guests may also include Emma Bunton and Mel CCredit: InstagramShe may be turning 50, but Gen Z worship her perfectly kohled eyes.A source added: “This year will be huge for Victoria Beckham Inc. She wants to take the House of Victoria Beckham to the next level, with her fragrance line joining that of fashion and beauty.“Her online beauty brand is struggling to keep up with demand and that is only going to increase this year. Her clutch handbag — worn on the hand — has inspired a raft of copy-cats from other designers and every A-lister in town is clamouring to be seen on a red carpet in a VB frock.“Her work ethic has always been ferocious and she is loving being a businesswoman.”Of course, on a personal level, Victoria’s stock has never been higher either.For years, and after the Spice Girls broke up, she was derogatorily dismissed as a Wag.A social media iconAnd while former England captain David was seen as the poster boy of Team Beckham, for years it was Victoria who was quietly keeping their gravy train going.Despite her success, she has always been quite shy when it comes to publicity.While David was happy to plug his brands, and was seen by millions as the “approachable” one of the duo, last year’s Netflix documentary on the ex-footballer showed VB in a whole new light and won her a fresh fanbase.Her witticisms and self-deprecating turn of phrase have made her something of a social media icon.And a meme of her insisting she was working class, only for David to poke his head through the door and demand she reveal what car she was driven to school in — a Rolls-Royce — quickly went viral.Now she is in talks to feature in a documentary of her own.It is sure to be a global smash.This summer will also mark the couple’s 25-year wedding anniversary— and they have never seemed happier, or more (sickeningly) in love.Talk of the couple renewing their vows have been dismissed, but another big bash could well be on the cards this summer.’Living her best life’This year is also the 30th anniversary of the Spice Girls — and despite relentless Mel B’s best efforts, a formal reunion with all five women seems unlikely.They will, however, do something “low key” later this year.A friend adds: “Victoria will always be a Spice Girl, and is incredibly proud of the group’s history. They have a WhatsApp group where ideas for one-off performances are bandied around and, for Victoria, it’s a case of ‘never say never’.“But for now, she’s focusing on her own work, and in the words of Gen Z, living her best life.READ MORE SUN STORIES“Fifty promises to be the most exciting year yet — and there’s a lot for fans to get excited about that will get unveiled in the coming weeks and months.”Until then, let’s all raise a toast to Mrs Beckham and her half-century.Gordon Ramsay is rumoured to have an inviteCredit: PATrusty hairdresser Ken Paves will be in attendanceCredit: Getty Images – GettyDavid’s best mate Dave Gardner will be thereCredit: GettyJ-Lo’s singer ex Marc Anthony is expected to attendCredit: Getty Images – GettyPosh’s personal trainer, Bobby Rich, will not only be there but he is likely to have trained the fitness fanatic in the morningCredit: Instagram/mrbobbyrich More

      Celeb shower secrets from ‘minging’ Loose Women star who refuses to wash to Myleene Klass’ naked encounter with builder

      by

      FROM attending A-list parties, travelling the world by private jet to enjoying expensive shopping sprees, the rich and famous live the most luxurious lives – for the most part.But while they can afford all the finer things in life, that’s not to say they aren’t guilty of letting their standards slip from time to time, and slumming it like the rest of us. Jonathan Ross surprised fans recently with his shower confession about himself and wife JaneCredit: GettyAmanda Holden let a sexy secret slip on her radio showCredit: instagram/@noholdenbackIn fact, sometimes their bad habit confessions have left fans stunned, and just recently talk show host Jonathan Ross, 63, admitted he rarely showers.Speaking to Josh Widdicombe on the Parenting Hell podcast, he said: “I sometimes go at least a week without showering – at least. So does [my wife] Jane sometimes. “We’re like a couple of hamsters in their own straw in that bed.” But it’s not just Jonathan who has admitted to some strange shower habits, with tonnes of other celebrities also making some rather unusual bathroom confessions over the years…READ MORE DIGITAL FEATURESSnacking in the showerHollywood superstar Jessica Biel caused confusion when she admitted she loves to eat in the shower and desperately wants her strange habit to catch on.The 42-year-old actress revealed in December she loves to snack in the shower, and even drinks her coffee while she’s cleaning herself.In a recent TikTok she addressed the camera directly to share the secrets of her success and encourage other people to get into it.”I’m just so thrilled everyone is so interested. I really want to start a movement, a shower-eating movement,” she said.Most read in Celebrity “I think, for people who are multitasking, it’s just going to be a relief in so many ways.”The biggest tip to shower snack success, according to Jessica, is to make sure you keep your mouth shut so the water doesn’t get in.It also helps to have a ledge in your shower to balance your snacks on so they don’t get soaked.Kylie Jenner ‘got a new boob job,’ fans insist after spotting ‘clue’ from video of star taking a showerJessica Biel revealed she enjoys a little shower snackCredit: Instagram/@jessicabielAmanda Holden’s sexy slip-upListeners of Heart Radio’s breakfast show got more than they bargained for when host Amanda Holden revealed she and her husband Chris like to get frisky in the shower.In a conversation with her co-host Jamie Theakston about which way Brits stand in the shower, the 53-year-old said she gets in the shower, then usually turns around.Amanda appeared to reveal a little more than she intended during an on-air slip upCredit: Christian Vermaak”So, you’re facing towards the shower to begin with?” Jamie asked, leaving her to inappropriately add: “But only for sex…like…”Amanda leapt to correct herself, saying she meant to say “seconds” to which Jamie cheekily responded “that’s another discussion for another day!” as the pair giggled.’Peeing in the shower is really good’ She’s known as the Queen of Pop but Madonna, 65, still has the ability to “gross us all out”, according to David Letterman.Madonna once revealed she believed it was ‘really good’ to pee in the showerCredit: INSTAGRAMBack 1994, the iconic pop star appeared on his show, and revealed it was “good” to pee in the shower.As part of a bizarre, expletive ridden appearance where she also asked David to smell her underwear, Madonna revealed she also thinks it’s “really good” to pee in the shower.”No I’m serious, seriously, peeing in the shower is really good,” she told the startled host to much laughter of the audience.”It fights the athlete’s foot. Urine is like an antiseptic, it’s all got to do with the enzymes in your body.””Don’t you know a good pharmacist?” David quipped back.Only washing ‘the important bits’ Loose Women co-host Stacey Solomon, 34, shocked her fellow panellists and viewers when she admitted she frequently goes days without showering. Stacey Solomon doesn’t believe showering daily is good for youCredit: InstagramThe mum of three confessed she only washes “the important bits” on days where she doesn’t feel like taking a full shower. She also added she didn’t think daily showers were good for “your hair and your skin and stuff”.The confession set X (formerly Twitter) on fire with some people calling Stacey “absolutely minging” for her hygiene habits.However others admitted they sympathised, saying they often didn’t find time for a daily shower.Cold showers to cope with sex scenesOscar-winner Emma Stone had a secret shower tip for getting through all the raucous sex scenes she had to film for her starring role in the film ‘Poor Things’.Emma Stone relied on cold showers as a coping mechanism when filming vast quantities of sex scenesCredit: GettyThe 35-year-old starlet would take cold showers at the end of a shoot to “wash the day away”, according to a tip from her intimacy coordinator on set.In Poor Things, Emma plays Bella Baxter, a woman whose insatiable sexual cravings meant a lot of uncomfortable shoots for Emma. Her intimacy coordinator gave her exercises to do in the shower to make sure she was okay with what she was filming.Elle McAlpine told Vanity Fair Emma’s days would be “bookended” with cold showers to help her cope.“It can make you feel quite vulnerable,” Elle explained. “Your body is an incredibly smart vehicle, but it sometimes doesn’t register what’s fantasy and what’s not.”‘Mortifying’ builder blunderOne contractor got more than he bargained for when he turned up at musician Myleene Klass’s home, only to accidentally see the singer starkers.Myleene was once accidentally caught out in the nip by an unsuspecting builderCredit: Rex FeaturesIn 2018, Myleene tweeted: “Just walked straight out of the shower, smack bang into the builder and now my daughter wants me to apologise to him for ‘scarring his mind.’She added that her “face was on fire” when he later chatted to her, saying: “I can’t make eye contact and he’s just chatting away..I genuinely hoped he hadn’t recognised me…not the case.”The 46-year-old songstress talked about the embarrassing mistake to her friend and radio host Carol Vorderman.She said she had been showering when her daughter came running in asking where the dry shampoo was. Wanting to help, Myleene hopped out of the shower to go and fetch it, saying: “So I ran out to go and grab it, not knowing that my boyfriend had let the builder into the house.“We basically, in front of my daughter, ran straight into each other. I was absolutely mortified.”The builder wasn’t too fussed however, with Myleene saying he had got in touch after she posted the incident on Twitter, saying he was “a hero down the pub”.Washing ‘pits, t**s, holes & soles’ Hollywood power couple Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher caused a huge debate when they declared they only washed their kids if they could see visible dirt on them.Hollywood couple Mila and Ashton caused a huge debate with how often they wash themselves and their kidsCredit: GettyMila, 40, and Ashton, 46 – who were co-stars on That 70’s Show and have been married since 2015 – share two children together, Wyatt Isabelle, nine, and Dimitri Portwood, seven.In an episode of Dax Shepard’s podcast ‘Armchair Expert’ they admitted their kids were not bathed frequently – and Ashton and Mila kept similar habits.”If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there’s no point,” said Ashton.”I don’t wash my body with soap every day,” Mila admitted. “But I wash pits and t**s and holes and soles.”Peeing in the shower quipWhile competing in the 2019 series of ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here’, Caitlyn Jenner had her fellow campmates in stitches over her clever quip about peeing in the shower.Caitlyn opened up on peeing in the shower while appearing as a contestant on I’m A CelebCredit: GettyThe 74-year-old was part of a chat with three other castmates – Roman Kemp, Myles Stephenson and Amy Whyment  – who all confessed they often peed in the shower.Adele Roberts then asked Caitlyn if she had ever peed in the shower as the boys discussed “making a game out of it” by trying to aim their stream down the drain.Caitlyn, who was known as Bruce Jenner before she transitioned in 2015, had the camp cracking up as she replied: “Put it this way, it’s not as much fun as it used to be.”Showering… on the looGlamorous former Countdown star Carol Vorderman recently traded in life in her £2.6 million mansion for a £100,000 luxury campervan – but living on the road doesn’t come without hitches.The 62-year-old recently revealed she has to shower while sitting on the toilet due to the tiny bathroom space in her home on wheels. Explaining the unusual bathroom situation, Carol said: “In my van, I’ve got a little shower area. When I say little, I mean little – tiny.READ MORE SUN STORIES”So small that you can’t actually stand up in it.
