STATUS UPDATE NAME: Layla Graham BORN: February 26 HOMETOWN: Coffs Harbour NSW CURRENTLY LIVES: Gold Coast Qld FIVE WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Ambitious. Empathetic. Grounded. Creative. Passionate.” LIFE MOTTO: “Live boldly, love fiercely and strive to show up as yourbest self every single day.” TIKTOK: @laylagraham__ INSTAGRAM: @laylagraham_ “I’m still learning and evolving as a woman and creator, and I love taking my audience along with me.” Hello, Layla, tell us a bit about yourself. Hello! I grew up in a small coastal town on the mid north coast of NSW, surrounded by sun, the beach and a lifestyle that naturally pushed me toward creativity. I’ve always loved fashion, photography and expressing myself visually, but I never imagined it would turn into a full-time career. What started as sharing little moments of my life…

STATUS UPDATE Full Name: Candice Kane Hometown: Sydney, Australia Born: January Instagram: @candicekanevip2 Twitter: @candicekane_xo “Be the blonde you want to see in the world.” Hey Candice, welcome to FHM! Can you ell us a bit about your shoot? Thank you for having me! I’m so excited to be a part of the FHM family! This photoshoot was probably my quickest shoot I’ve ever done! I normally go overboard with outfits, hair and makeup and the location (its an all day affair). This time I thought I’d keep it simple so I arranged for the location to be close to home and only shoot for half a day. I decided to wear outfits I love and feel most comfortable in. My favourite being a cozy knitted mini dress and bare…

Modern life has its perks – instant access to nearly everything, a bustling digital ecosystem, and a sense of ever-moving progress. But for a growing tribe of men, the convenience, noise, and constant striving became too much. Somewhere between burnout and the endless treadmill of deadlines, they found themselves craving silence, space, and something real. These are the stories of men who walked away from the rat race and chose to live wild – off-grid, overseas, or deep in the heart of nowhere. Not for a week. Not as a sabbatical. But for good, or at least that was the plan. This isn’t about Instagram influencers posing next to waterfalls or trust-funders living out curated fantasies. These are the unfiltered tales of ordinary men who traded boardrooms for the bush,…

Formula One is a sport defined by its dominant eras. Schumacher’s unrelenting dominance at Ferrari. Vettel’s unprecedented hot streak at Red Bull. The era of precision and power that Hamilton oversaw at Mercedes. But something feels radically different about McLaren’s comeback in the 2024 and 2025 seasons. This isn’t just a recovery; it’s a resurgence. It represents a rebalancing of what contemporary domination looks like. The backbone of McLaren’s comeback has been two drivers whose careers are booming in tandem. A young British sensation, Lando Norris, who has finally realised his full potential, paired with an even younger phenomenal Australian talent, Oscar Piastri, whose poise belies his years, have become one of the grid’s most balanced and dangerous lineups. As evidence of their rise, the Constructors’ Championship was secured before…

There’s something sacred about a stool, a cold drink, and a mind that’s just loose enough to wander. Somewhere between the second sip and the last call, men start asking the kinds of questions that professors argue in dusty halls – but with less pretension and more laughter. Welcome to the world of the Barstool Philosopher: part Socrates, part smartarse, fully in pursuit of a deeper truth… or at least a great conversation. This isn’t about drunken rambling. It’s about using the soft hum of alcohol, a good friend, and a bit of mental friction to ask questions that matter. Questions with no clean answers. Questions that make you tilt your head, squint into your beer, and say, “Damn… that’s a good one.” So raise your glass, clear your mind,…

Attraction has been the subject of countless books, songs, and movies. Yet, it remains one of the most misunderstood and elusive aspects of human interaction. While we all experience attraction, few understand how to harness it deliberately, let alone master the art of seduction. Seduction, however, is not about manipulation or trickery. It’s about creating a deep emotional connection, communicating your desires, and building an attraction based on mutual respect and understanding. In a world dominated by swiping, texting, and social media, dating has evolved. The subtle art of seduction has morphed with the times, incorporating modern nuances of flirting, emotional connection, and how to make yourself a more magnetic partner. Mastering attraction today is about leveraging your charisma, being emotionally present, and understanding that real seduction goes beyond physical…

The State of Style in 2026 We’ve hit a moment in men’s fashion where contradictions co-exist. Streetwear moguls share magazine covers with classic suit aficionados. One guy is in techwear straight out of Blade Runner, the other is in raw denim and a chore jacket, and both are considered stylish. In 2026, the rules of men’s fashion are no longer dictated by rigid categories. The real game is about mastering your own visual identity - finding the balance between rugged masculinity, timeless refinement, and real, wearable self-expression. This is not about trends. It’s about standing out by standing firm. Men are shedding the fast-fashion impulse in favour of investing in pieces that work hard, look sharp, and age better. They want to feel confident walking into any room - boardroom or dive…

I don’t know about you but I hate cardio, at least in the more traditional sense. However, just because you hate something doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. And if you value other qualities like general health and wellbeing, achieving and maintaining a specific body composition or just having the ability to effectively escape in the event of a zombie apocalypse, you should know that you will need to do some sort of conditioning. The good news is that there is another way to do energy systems work that doesn’t involve planting your ass on a stationary bike or plodding along on a treadmill for hours. All you need to do is pick-up something heavy and carry it around. No tricks, no trends, no machines with televisions attached. This is…

From roaring engines to sleek, unforgettable designs, movie cars have carved their place in pop culture history. These aren’t just vehicles, they’re characters in their own right, often stealing the scene and igniting our imaginations. Whether they’re racing through city streets, dodging bullets or time-travelling into new dimensions, the coolest movie cars bring adrenaline, nostalgia, and awe all at once. In this feature, we’re taking a long cruise down memory lane to explore the most iconic, envy-inducing cars ever to grace the silver screen. These machines aren’t just about horsepower or shiny paint, they’re about attitude, personality, and the story they tell with every screech of the tyre. From spy gadgets to apocalyptic mods, here’s what makes these legendary rides timeless. The Time-Bending Tech of the DeLorean DMC-12 – Back…

THE BALD TRUTH Hair loss, no matter your age or background, is the one issue that unites men in shared frustration. By 50, over 70% of men will experience some form of hair loss. Whether it’s slow thinning, sudden shedding or a full-blown retreat of the hairline, it remains one of the biggest hits to male self-esteem. But we’ve come a long way from the days of denial, hats or shaving it all off. Thanks to two decades of medical breakthroughs, hair loss can now be treated, reversed and, in many cases, fixed for good. From topical solutions like Rogaine to prescription meds and surgical procedures like Follicular Unit Excision (FUE), there’s now an entire playbook available. And leading the charge in Australia is Dr Wayne Young, founder of Young…
