Pisces SEB & Pisces LIZZIE “The key ingredients are there – trust, commitment, communication – along with a generous dollop of physical attraction. But over time, differing values and opinions could lead to clashes.” LOVE RATING: Scorpio DREW & Sagittarius KASEY “Born within weeks of each other, this dynamic duo share many traits, including vision, grit and a genuine passion for life. However, their sexual chemistry is lacking. It’s friends at best.” LOVE RATING: Libra STACEY & Libra MICHAEL “Michael’s restless nature might prove hard to contain. Power struggles could erupt as Stacey lays down the law – and ultimately, Michael’s inner rebel will win the day.” LOVE RATING: Sagittarius MISHEL & Virgo STEVE “With four planets in the fastidious Virgo territory, Steve will struggle with Mishel’s freewheeling Sagittarius sun.…

With the release of A Quiet Place Part II pushed back until later in the year, Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are focusing their attention on having baby number three. Yay! The cute couple are already parents to daughters Hazel, six, and Violet, three, but “have been talking about having another child for a while now”, spills an insider, who adds that the duo hope to have some happy news to share by the US summer. “Buzz is that they’ve already started trying!” says the spy. “The timing just feels right. Their marriage is in a good place and they’re the closest they’ve ever been. Another baby would be the icing on the cake.” While Emily, 37, wouldn’t mind adding another girl to their brood, John, 40, naturally has his…

Ellen DeGeneres couldn’t have anticipated a moment quite like this. Kelly Clarkson’s daytime talk show has become a bona fide hit, watched in roughly 1.9 million households an episode in the US and outranking veteran series like The Dr Oz Show and Rachael Ray Show, as well as beating out fellow newcomer Tamron Hall. “Ellen is happy for Kelly,” spills a source close to the 62-year-old comedian. “But she’s also a little jealous of just how quickly Kelly’s taken over as the fresh, new face of daytime television.” Premiering last September, The Kelly Clarkson Show became the highest- rated syndicated talk show to debut in the States since Katie Couric took a stab at it in 2012. “Ellen hates giving up power – that’s one of the reasons why she…

JOHN CLEESE Not content with A Fish Called Wanda, John also has a lemur called, er, John! Known as Cleese’s woolly lemur, the Avahi cleesei was christened after the Monty Python comedian made a doco about the animals in 1998. DAVID ATTENBOROUGH The natural historian has several species named after him – including the Attenborosaurus. The long-necked marine reptile existed in the Early Jurassic period. So cool! BEYONCE There’s a simple reason why this Queensland horse fly was named Scaptia beyonceae – “It was the unique dense golden hairs on the fly’s abdomen,” says scientist Bryan Lessard. Er, right! ANGELINA JOLIE Were scientists having a Jolie good laugh at Ange’s expense when they dubbed this trapdoor spider Aptostichus angelinajolieae? The arachnid’s defining characteristic is that it leaps out to seize…

EYE OPENERS You’ve taken care of your base – and now it’s time to work on those…

Here in Australia, one woman dies every eight hours from ovarian cancer and, tragically, many of those deaths could have been avoided with early detection. That’s why Camilla and Marc have launched their new ‘Ovaries. Talk About Them’ campaign to raise funds for ovarian cancer and support the development of an early detection test. All funds from their limited edition T-shirt collection will be donated directly to ovarian cancer research at UNSW. “Ovarian cancer is overlooked and underfunded, yet every woman in the world is at risk of developing this disease,” says UNSW Associate Professor Caroline Ford (pictured). “If we can manage to develop an effective test for ovarian cancer, that is as good as a cure because if you catch the cancer early, you can cure it through surgery.”…

The Australian Survivor: All Stars Top Five are fighting to be crowned sole Survivor at next Monday’s finale. But host Jonathan LaPaglia will award the $500k prize to the winner from afar! Yep, the LA-based star can’t travel to Australia thanks to the COVID-19 crisis – so he’ll dial in hosting duties via satellite while Survivor superfan Osher Gunsberg hosts in the studio. But Jonathan still has thoughts on who will outwit, outplay and outlast, and says Golden God David Genat is the man to beat. “He has the looks, the muscles and the brains,” he dishes. He says to also look out for “dark horse” Mark “Tarzan” Herlaar, and reckons Moana Hope, Sharn Coombes and Brooke Jowett “can’t be ruled out either”. Despite production on Survivor season six being…

1 It’d be a Scandal if she didn’t star in the movie version of this mummy group mystery. 2 She considers this insightful essay collection of cultural critiques a Marvel-lous read! 3 It’s no Big Little Lie that this novel – about a family on a cruise – was her book club choice. 4 This 1979 classic joins stacks of American Horror Story scripts on this actress’ night stand. 5 This lady gets Carrie-d away reading true crime tales while she’s between acting jobs. 6 This Is Us Astounding!

Well, hasn’t 2020 just been a wild AF ride? And it’s only March! I know I’m not the only one already thinking, “Thank you, next…” Like you, the NW-ettes have all been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic. Our newlywed art director Madie’s had her US honeymoon postponed, copy editor Hannah has been waiting nervously at home all week for test results (negative, phew!), associate editor Mel’s son has had to cut short his big OE and almost our entire lifestyle team is in isolation. I’ve had to cancel travel plans and I won’t be seeing my parents for the foreseeable future due to the border closures (hi, Mum and Dad!), but the team and I are distracting ourselves from the many disappointments by continuing to make your fave mag.…

There’s no need for the MAFS “relationship experts” when you can use the pages of NW to land your next boyfriend! Connie Crayden and Jonethen Musulin’s marriage is officially over in the real world, and now the marine biology student confirms to us that she’s pursing a rebound romance with Bachelor star Matt Agnew! “I have always been attracted to a man with a very big brain,” Connie reveals when we ask about the romance rumours. “Matt seems like a highly intelligent man. I’ve always pictured myself with a man who has a PHD under his belt. I’m blushing, so that’s your answer.” Aww – sooo cute! As first reported by OK! magazine, sparks instantly flew between Connie, 27, and astrophysicist Matt, 32, when they were caught getting cosy at…

Nobody panic! Jared Leto is going to save us all... apparently. The Hollywood heartthrob emerged from the desert after a two-week retreat last week, admitting on social media that he had “no idea” the word was in the grip of a global pandemic. “Wow. 12 days ago I began a silent meditation in the desert. We were totally isolated. No phone, no communication etc. We had no idea what was happening outside the facility,” the Thirty Seconds to Mars rocker posted. “Walked out yesterday into a very different world. One that’s been changed forever. Mind blowing – to say the least.” But never fear! Jared – who has confirmed he’s working on creating his own cult on a private island called Camp Mars – believes he already has the answer…

Ellen and Portia de Rossi love a good house flip, but it looks like their recent property purchase in Montecito, California could be a keeper – because Portia’s moved in! “She’s officially left LA,” a source explains. “Ellen’s stayed behind because they’re having problems.” Portia, 47, won’t be back any time soon either – because the pair have been having major arguments over Ellen’s career. “Portia wants her to retire, but Ellen refuses to,” says the insider. “Ellen tries to appease her by giving her whatever she wants.” However, buying her wife some happiness will only work for so long. “Hopefully some time apart will do them good,” laments the source.…

Lisa Marie Presley has had a rough few years. She’s currently locked in a court battle with her ex over custody of their twin daughters, has been accused of being a drug addict with a penchant for prescription pills and is rumored to be suffering a mystery illness after gaining weight at an alarming rate. But in her mind, none of that compares to the fact that her mother Priscilla has informed her she is a “disgrace” to her legendary dad Elvis’ memory and is now attempting to withhold what’s left of The King’s fortune. And having reportedly squandered her massive inheritance of $160 million thanks to her alleged opioid habit, Lisa Marie – by some estimates worth just $23,000 now – isn’t taking it lying down. Multiple sources close…

Meghan Trainor Our Lips Are Movin’... with nothing but praise for Meghan’s lilac sequinned playsuit. However, it’s a good thing she’s married, as those boots and socks wouldn’t exactly attract a husband... Eiza Gonzalez When ugly clothes happen to pretty people! Although Eiza’s make-up and hair are flawless, this sheer Christopher Kane gown isn’t making us red-hot. Soz, babe! Martha Hunt If any designers are on the Hunt for a new muse, they should look no further than this stunner. While us mortals could never pull off a tunic, the Victoria’s Secret Angel looks heavenly in this one. Keira Maguire Forget a rose – can someone hand this Bachie babe a pair of scissors to hack the train off her Jason Grech gown? The graphic print would look way better…

“When I was filming X-Men, I would lie and say I was exercising in my hotel room, when actually I was watching Friends.” January Jones wasn’t a fan of the franchise’s on-set personal trainers. “We’re gonna go down in history as the dumbest people ever. We got caught breaking into a prison!” Justin Timberlake was busted with his NSYNC bud Joey Fatone sneaking into Alcatraz. “I’m in the shower and I’m like, ‘I have a full day. You have a full day. It’s now or never!’” Vanessa Lachey reckons the key to her and hubby Nick’s happy marriage is shower sex.…

The curtain may have come down on Meghan Markle’s time as a working royal, but we definitely haven’t seen her final public act! Yep, Hollywood’s come calling for the actress once more – with none other than Tom Cruise setting his sights on casting the Duchess of Sussex in his next cinematic project. TOM’S ALWAYS DREAMED OF CONVERTING A ROYAL “Tom’s seen what she can do and reckons the camera loves her,” a source close to the actor, 57, tells NW. With Meghan already in talks to do voice overs for Disney, it wouldn’t be a surprise to anyone if she accepts Tom’s offer. “What better way to get back on the big screen,” the insider adds, “than by starring opposite one of the world’s biggest stars?” But it seems…

Look away, Lizzie! NW can reveal that Seb Guilhaus has a secret stripper past. In exclusive pictures obtained by us, the former footy player can be seen in various states of undress as he performs onstage at Darwin’s Throb nightclub – the very same LGBTQI-friendly venue that Ciarran Stott danced at before making a play for Angie Kent’s heart on The Bachelorette last year. Seb, 30, has previously admitted to working as a topless waiter for “handy income” and our insider says, “He is by no means ashamed about his past. He just knows that Lizzie’s got massive trust issues and he’s worried that he’s left it too late to tell her about it.” Eek!…

By quite a few accounts, Julia Roberts and Danny Moder’s marriage has sadly taken up residence on Struggle Street – and now we’re told she’s turning her attention to The One Who Got Away in order to cope! Just weeks after she bought a house in San Francisco, hundreds of kilometres away from her family’s base in southern California, NW hears the Ben is Back actress is in touch with her ex-partner, SF native Benjamin Bratt – so Ben really is back! Julia and the Miss Congeniality hottie started dating in 1998, but split while she was working on The Mexican in 2001. During filming, she was busted kissing her ex Jason Patric before ending up with current husband Danny – who was the movie’s cameraman. At the time, Danny…

You’re not anyone in LA unless you have the best therapy money can buy – which Kourtney Kardashian knows better than most. The mother-of-three recently admitted she visits her therapist twice a week to “almost catch things before they become bigger”. But a friend tells NW that Kourt, 40, actually went through seven different professionals over the course of five months, before finally settling on one who would treat her. Guess they couldn’t keep up with her problems... “Kourt comes across as this ice queen on the outside, but inside she’s a prima donna with a lot of underlying issues,” spills her pal. “She told friends she was being picky as she cycled through the first four, but no-one would be surprised if they refused to work with her, given…

OPRAH WAS ACCUSED OF SEX TRAFFICKING File this one away under C for craziest claim ever! Oprah Winfrey has been caught up in a bizarre conspiracy theory, with a Twitter user accusing the talk-show host – as well as a number of other big-name celebs – of being connected to a trafficking ring involving the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. What the actual?! Oprah, 66, took to Twitter herself to strenuously deny the accusations, especially after the troll alleged that the star’s Florida home had been raided by cops. “Just got a phone call that my name is trending. And being trolled for some awful FAKE thing,” Oprah wrote. “It’s NOT TRUE. Haven’t been raided, or arrested.” You tell ’em, Opes! KIMMY K FOUND A LOBSTER ON HER STREET!…

JESSICA SIMPSON The author and mother-of-three says her slim silhouette and healthier lifestyle is partly thanks to her new love for cauliflower. She explains, “I am eating healthy and I discovered I really like cauliflower. Who knew it could be a substitute for almost anything?” Cauliflower pizza base, anyone? JOURDAN DUNN The supermodel loves roasted cauliflower loaded with flavour. She cooks the vegetable in coconut oil with cumin, sumac, paprika, thyme, garlic, coriander, parsley and lemon juice. The recipe is so good, it’s even approved by her 10-year-old son Riley: “He loves this cauliflower recipe!” NIGELLA LAWSON The trendy vegetable doesn’t have to be reserved for winter – try it as a salad. Chef Nigella swears by oven-roasting cauliflower for 15 minutes with oil, cinnamon and cumin seeds. Then add…

But if you’re left twiddling your thumbs for longer than you’d normally like, draw up a new to-do list to tackle. Taurus APRIL 21 – MAY 21  Keeping a partner or suitor sweet should be an absolute breeze this week. Thanks to the influence of your love planet Pluto, your natural charm will shine through.

Martha Kalifatidis has proven to be one of the most influential and successful MAFS stars, remaining firmly in the spotlight a year after her TV debut, even though a new crop of fame-hungry brides and grooms are in the picture. And now the brunette bombshell’s publicist tells NW exclusively that Martha, 31, and her hilarious mother Mary are getting their own TV show! “I can confirm that we are in the early stages of creating a reality show for Martha and her mum, but this is all I can share for the time being,” the official response reads. And when NW reached out for a comment from Martha, she teased, “Hmmm maybe!” and added a winky face emoji. This has long been a dream for Martha, with a source previously…

EMILY WANTED TO BE BRITNEY 2.0! Emily Blunt claims she “could have been Britney Spears” after recording a demo song called Ring It Up early in her career. However, she put a pin in her pop princess plans after Judi Dench advised that it’d be, er, Toxic for any acting ambitions she might have. “I was doing a play with Judi and she was like, ‘Oh, no, darling. You can’t do both,’” says Em. THE HIGHER THE HAIR Girls just wanna have... volume! When Macy Gray and Cyndi Lauper caught up at a recent event in NYC, the question on everyone’s lips wasn’t when these icons are going to make music together – but rather how many cans of hairpsray must they go through a week to achieve those larger-than-life…
