Selfie-assured actor Matt discovers power of pics
Fruits you, Sir! Hot Fuzz actor Ben Mckay has designed the new look for Kopparberg’s mixed fruit, strawberry and lime and pear flavours.
And as a result, the Ravensbourne University London student is getting his tuition fees paid in full and has been offered an internship.
I think I know what he’ll be drinking to celebrate...
Katie Price doesn’t have many defenders at the moment but step forward Drag Race star Baga Chipz – one of the few people who wears more make-up than Ms Price.
Hilarious Baga says: “We all have our problems. People are just too quick to judge.
“She’s a brilliant mum, you can’t knock her for that… the things she goes through with Harvey on a daily basis, most people would crack. Be kind and just think before you write something online.”
Baga’s Frockumentary is now available to watch exclusively on WOW Presents Plus.
When Rita Ora sang “Let’s be lonely together” on Avicii’s 2017 hit, she meant it. Despite her countless celebrity friends, the star has opened up about being plagued by loneliness.
She tells Smallzy’s Celebrity Small Talk podcast: “Outside of the dream – being a singer, everybody knowing your name and being all over the world – there’s also sacrifice. Endless nights where you don’t really sleep that much, you have to get on another plane, do another show, you can’t really see your friends or go to a birthday party, you’re missing a lot of family functions… it can get lonely.”
Just think of the boring baby showers you’ll get out of, Reets!
EXCLUSIVE After hit roles in Doctor Who and The Crown, Matt Smith is one of the most famous actors in the country.
But on the odd occasion he doesn’t get recognised, Matt has a found a handy way to ensure he can still get into the swankiest places. He doesn’t resort to menial activities such as queuing… instead, Matt cheekily offers to take selfies with door staff to get him and his pals in to the best nightclubs in town. I’ve been told Matt – who will next appear in Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon – recently pulled the trick at the trendy XOYO club in London’s Shoreditch, which is renowned for electronic music and raves. A source revealed: “Matt was having a great night out with a big group of friends and colleagues but worried that because of the size of their party, they’d struggle to get in. “Normally, he’s not one to pull the celebrity card and finds it all a bit embarrassing. He’s certainly not a demanding diva but, on this occasion after a friendly nudge from some pals, he couldn’t resist using his fame to ensure their night out wasn’t cut short. “Of course, he made sure to do it very discreetly and even made a joke of it so no one thought he was up himself. “The door staff found the funny side, and were more than happy to oblige.” Matt’s entourage included a number of crew members from the Game of Thrones prequel, which is due to be released in August. Whether it will be as good as the legendary HBO fantasy series, well… Matt has no idea. The actor, who will play Prince Daemon Targaryen in the prequel, says candidly: “Truth is, I don’t know, because I’ve not seen any of House of the Dragon. “It’s quite hard to have an opinion on the work you’ve done, because it comes and goes without you having seen it.” I guess he’s right… why watch your own films and TV shows when you can go out clubbing instead, right?
Normally Las Vegas nights out lead to epic hangovers and huge gambling losses. But Carrie Underwood’s experience of Sin City was a little different. When speaking about her new album, Denim & Rhinestones, the country-turned-gospel singer explains: “The Las Vegas residency was really the catalyst for this album. “I was just ready to have fun and to write songs that make me happy to listen to and happy to sing.” Amen to that.
Now we know how Idris Elba slips into character – by putting on slippers! The Luther actor said that when he does voiceovers for characters like villain Shere Khan in The Jungle Book, he wears really comfy footwear.
Idris says: “When you walk into the studio, you’re going to be there for at least four hours so you just try to be comfortable. I do a lot of voice work in my slippers – flip floppy, open toes.”
The actor also likes to move about even though he won’t be seen.
He says: “You want to make your body move like the characters so it’s important my footwear matches that ambition.”
