When the spin-off show opened, the men were figuring out the sleeping arrangements at the mansion.

The British singer-songwriter, 32, and daughter of Bananarama star Sara Dallin, caused a stir on X after opening up to the BBC about having 'no easy way in' to the music industry and refusing to 'rely on her parents' for success. Alice, who boasts just over 1000 monthly listeners on Spotify , lamented about it being a 'really tough industry to crack', and went on to fend off accusations of 'nepotism', despite being born to an 80s icon mother and a father who danced for Michael Jackson and Tina Turner. People were having none of it and wasted no time airing their thoughts on the interview, which included branding her a ' nepo baby ', accusing her of having a 'total lack of awareness', and even telling her to 'f**k off'.

Fans of The Bachelor may recognize Kelsey Anderson's father, Mark, who went viral as 'Kelsey's Hot Dad' last year after appearing on his daughter's hometown date, as one of the 24 eligible seniors competing on season one of The Golden Bachelorette. He captured hearts while telling Kelsey that he just wanted her to find 'that feeling' he had with her mother, who passed away in 2018 after a battle with breast cancer . After the episode aired, viewers flocked to social media to endorse him as the next Golden Bachelor or a good match for Vassos, who prematurely exited Gerry Turner's season of The Golden Bachelor due to a medical concern with her daughter.

The judges gave her a standing ovation when she finished. 'My gosh,' said judge Simon Cowell, 64, who created the AGT franchise and also is an executive producer.

The image shows a tanned young man, naked from the waist up and with the slicked back hair of someone who looks as if he has recently exited a swimming pool. He is staring pointedly into his phone camera, chunky silver chains on his left wrist just visible, but there's no mistaking the defiantly raised middle finger that's the focus of the selfie. Katja Faber had a visceral reaction when she saw it. She felt sick. For less than ten years ago her son was killed by the man in the image.

Pictures show the lavish funeral of an 'extremely violent' Irish gangster who was buried in a gold coffin alongside cocaine tributes taunting police after he died in a car crash. Stephen O'Reilly, a father-of-one, was pronounced dead at the scene in Edenderry, County Offaly, on Monday, May 20. O'Reilly - who was in his 30s and from Athlone, County Westmeath - held convictions for burglaries and serious offences, and was regarded as a violent and dangerous criminal, according to BelfastLive. But he was also described as having a 'heart of gold' by mourners - hence the extravagant colour of the coffin, which was carried by six men and a woman to Tina Turner's 'Simply the Best'. Photos from the funeral show printed pictures of tattooed O'Reilly topless and flexing with the words: 'The real Pablo. The one and only Gangster Reilly.' One bizarre display mounted on a golden plaque and outlined with white paper flowers depicted a container full of cocaine with the words 'no comment' beneath.

Bruce Lehrmann, 28, moved out of the luxury three-bedroom home in Balgowlah, in Sydney's northern beaches, in early April when his deal with Channel Seven for a years' worth of accommodation at $2000 per week came to an end. He then moved into another mansion with a friend in North Sydney, but that was short-lived when furious neighbours complained of wild parties, 'shrieking' girls, and Tina Turner karaoke. In May, the Balgowlah property owner Lady Gaenor Meakes launched a case in the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) against Lehrmann for damage and financial loss because he left three weeks before the lease ended. A conciliation session scheduled at the tribunal in Sydney on Thursday to help the parties resolve the dispute, but he didn't show up.

It is not every day that a billionaire's daughter whose mother once dated Prince Andrew buys a famous London restaurant for £6.4million, spends another million doing it up and hard launches on a warm morning in May, when diners are already queueing up for her seafood towers and green tomato martinis, writes JAN MOIR. But Tara MacBain is no ordinary restrauteur - and Julie's is no ordinary restaurant. Part of London's dining folklore for over 50 years, it was here that Mick Jagger once had post-gig scrambled eggs with Princess Margaret after the Rolling Stones played Wembley Stadium in 1976. It was here that Madonna had an unlikely dinner date with Tom Cruise and where Oasis liked to party. Now Tara is relaunching it.

You could've formed an all-time-great team out of the long list of former stars who turned up to pay their respects to the Manly champion known as 'Tezza' when he was farewelled on Thursday.

After 17 years on the judging panel of Britain's Got Talent, there isn't much Simon Cowell hasn't seen.  Yet even he wasn't prepared for an usual audition in the latest round as they stormed the stage dressed up as him and belting out Tina Turner's hit Simply The Best. In scenes that will air on Saturday's show, judges Amanda Holden, Bruno Tonioli, Alesha Dixon and of course, Simon watched on as just one performer began singing modelling Simon's famous white shirt and high-waisted black trousers combo.

The libertarian populist was last seen together with Fatima Florez, 43, in Miami on Wednesday as riots broke out on the streets of Buenos Aires in protest at public spending cuts in a country where 40 percent live in poverty. They boasted of their 'exotic' relationship after going public in July last year with Milei, 53, insisting 'I am very in love' with the Argentinian actress and comedian. But he said their conflicting schedules had placed too much strain on the relationship as he announced the end of the relationship on Saturday. 'As a result of the overwhelming professional success that Fatima, of whom I am extremely proud, is experiencing, she has received numerous job offers to work both in the United States and in Europe,' he wrote on social media.

Bruce Lehrmann has fled his new digs after his housemate complained that him moving in had 'ruined his life'. Paul Farrell offered Mr Lehrmann a place to stay when his year-long deal with Channel Seven for a $2,000-a-week property in Sydney 's northern beaches ended. Mr Farrell, 48,  told Daily Mail Australia that he thought he was just 'helping out a mate' when he offered his spare room at his North Sydney rental to Mr Lehrmann. 'I'm renting this place and had a spare room ... but it's basically ruined my life with all the photographers and journalists hanging around.'

Bruce Lehrmann was forced to move out of his $2000-a-week Balgowlah property last week, when his deal with Channel Seven for exclusive interviews in exchange for a years' worth of accommodation came to an end. With nowhere to go and more court appearances on the horizon, his mate Paul had a spare room in North Sydney and decided to help out - apparently not realising there would be all-night parties and lingering photographers. Outside the home on Thursday, as the sweet stench of vapes wafted from the door, Paul said he was having second thoughts.

The former Liberal staffer was spotted on Tuesday night with two glammed-up women outside his new crib in North Sydney , just moments after Justice Michael Lee set a new date for judgement in his blockbuster defamation case. Undeterred by the torrents of rain lashing the city, Mr Lehrmann and his companions could be seen using umbrellas and jackets to shield themselves from the deluge as they crossed the road and disappeared in an Uber - with a can of alcohol. On Wednesday night, another group of women could be seen entering the same property - including a mysterious blond.

Beyonce has pleaded with the music industry to be more open to joy and liberation that comes from experiencing art without preconceived expectations - as she gave her family a warm shout out at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.

Beyonce's remark came after she dropped Cowboy Carter, her first-ever country album, which was met with success.
