Innholdsfortegnelse for November 2025 i FHM New Zealand

Welcome to FHM, ladies. Tell us a bit about this shoot. JACINTA: This shoot was such a vibe. Milk Beach in Sydney is one of my favourite hidden gems and it’s the perfect spot to capture that mix of fun and freedom. MEL: It’s iconic to us because we love the beach – it’s a cool, slightly secluded, spot where you can see both the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The fruit was fun, too, as we’re into health, but we love having a bit of fun with all the different shapes and sizes. J:It was only natural to bring fruit into the shoot – I’m a Nutritionist, so food and wellness are a big part of my life, but I also love playing with the colour and cheekiness it…

Many lifters, especially the bullet-proof 20-somethings, associate any sort of stretching with skinny-fat cardio junkies or the patchouli-scented yoga scene, limiting them to the occasional biceps stretch in front of the mirror after a gruelling set of cable curls. Fortunately, momentum has started to swing back towards a more well-rounded approach, as more trainees realise that regular stretching can lead to bigger gains — heavier benches and stronger squats. Chances are you will have heard of mobility AND flexibility, both buzzwords that are thrown around the fitness world. However, many people mistakenly use these terms interchangeably and although flexibility is a component of mobility, mobility and flexibility are different. Very simply, flexibility is the ability of a muscle(s) to passively lengthen while mobility is the ability of a joint to…

True luxury begins with comfort. It’s an ethos master tailor Miles Wharton and Rami Mikhael of The Bespoke Corner have built their careers on. So, when bourbon label Woodford Reserve was looking to launch their first foray into fashion, Miles and Rami were their first call. The design brief was deceptively simple: a stylish outfit for men who want to look suave while nursing their tipple of choice. For Miles, who looks after some of Australia’s most influential and powerful men, the collab was a chance to play with the old codes and go bold. Enter the Traxedo: a tailored two-piece tuxedo tracksuit that blends tailored craftsmanship with the comfort of loungewear. “The Traxedo is a one-of-a-kind piece we’ve never attempted before, blending the precision of bespoke tailoring we at…

The road to the iconic Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps is long and winding. Located southeast of the town of Spa in the eastern-most part of Belgium, the grand old track grazes the sleepy villages of Francorchamps, Stavelot and Malmedy as it snakes through the countryside. In late June, tens of thousands of endurance racing diehards from Turin to Tokyo make the pilgrimage along the quiet village backroads for the Crowdstrike 24 Hours of Spa race. Inside the circuit they find campgrounds, beer gardens, carnival rides (including the famous Ferris wheel) and an impressive concert stage. Then there’s the actual race. The 24 Hours of Spa celebrated its centenary last year and is widely considered the most prestigious GT3 race in the world. It is currently run as a points-earning round for…

“It’s all about taking the time with yourself to feel and look your best.” Delightful FHM feature shoot, Julia, congrats. How do you feel? Chuffed! I’ve been wanting to work with FHM for years and feel very grateful. Being able to shoot with Neil [Dixon, photographer] at an incredible location was amazing! I’ve had the opportunity to work with him a lot and he always makes me feel confident and sexy no matter what’s going on behind the scenes. Well, you look gorgeous. When do you feel you are at your sexiest? Thanks! I feel sexiest when I’m getting ready to go out somewhere. It’s all about taking the time with yourself to feel and look your best. Also, a tan – a tan is always necessary. What is your…

Horror isn’t just a genre — it’s a lifestyle. A pulse-racing, dread-fuelled escape from the ordinary that lives in the shadows and feeds on the thrill of fear. And for those who crave the long haul — the lore, the mythologies, the sequels, prequels and spin-offs — horror franchises are the ultimate obsession. Whether it’s a cursed VHS tape, a chainsaw-wielding maniac, a hellish video game, or an immortal literary demon, horror franchises offer more than jump scares. They build entire universes of dread that fans willingly return to, again and again, because the darkness is just that good. From silver-screen slashers to haunting pages and blood-soaked pixels, here are the 10 greatest horror franchises of all time — ranked, dissected, and worshipped. From possession scenes to psychological breakdowns, these…

When it came time for Ferrari to select a backdrop to unveil their brand new 296 GT3 Evo, the Italian marque naturally chose the most important event on the GT racing calendar. At the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Ferrari has the largest and most impressive set up in the Spa paddock. The Prancing Horse erected an elaborate multi-storey hospitality centre that is less caravan and more spaceship. Ferrari sees customer racing as crucial to the health of their brand and closely follows all their cars’ performance in series across the world. The current 296 GT3 has won five titles, including Drivers’ and Team titles in the Pro class of the GT World Challenge Endurance Cup – the benchmark championship for GT3 cars – as well as victories at the Nürburgring 24…

448 Epsom Road, Flemington, Melbourne, Victoria FLEMINGTON RACECOURSE Date opened: 1840 Capacity: 120,000 Run on the first Tuesday in November each year, the Melbourne Cup is well known as the race that stops a nation. That surprised no lesser man than famed American novelist Mark Twain, who visited Flemington Racecourse as part of a world tour and observed in 1895: ‘Nowhere in my travels have I encountered a festival of the people that had such a magnetic appeal to the whole nation. The Cup astonishes me.’ For more than 160 years Flemington Racecourse, on the banks of the Maribyrnong River, has become a mecca for sports-mad punters, seasoned fashionistas and the world thoroughbred community. Flemington and its signature race predate Australian Federation by a good 50 years, so is it…

What made you want to audition for the role of Michael Jackson in MJ The Musical? Well, I saw the New York show in 2022, when it had just started, and was blown away by everything – the staging, the costumes, the music, the choreography... and I was like, “I need to be in this show”. Then an open call for an MJ standby position came up, I applied, got a call back and the rest is history. What does it mean to step into Michael Jackson’s shoes? It means a lot to be able to portray him and to be able to keep his legacy alive to the younger generations to come. Were you a fan before this show? Yeah, I’ve been a fan for a long time. I…

Monty, thanks for your time. Firstly, what can audiences expect from your current stand-up tour? Mostly juggling, puppetry, some breath work, three types of forbidden dance, some quiet time, a quilting lesson and I finish by giving a mime a wedgie. Have you ever felt like you’ve died onstage during a gig? I did have a profound moment in Buenos Aires. I was onstage and a very bright light appeared, a loud voice rang in my ears saying, “It’s time to go” over and over. Then I realised I was still onstage hours after the show had finished and the sound and lighting guy was trying to get me to leave. How do you want to leave this world? With the sound and lighting guy from Buenos Aires telling me,…
