For some reason, I always pick party season – aka the worst time possible – to go on a health kick. As if there’s any free time for going to the gym amidst BBQs with mates, after-work drinks and Sunday sessions at the beach, right? But staying fit and feeling good while you’re living your best summer life is actually possible (seriously!) I’ve been putting Kourtney Kardashian’s low-sugar tequila cocktail recipe (p31) to good use on lazy summer weekends with my girlfriends (much appreciated by all) and even sneaking fitness superstar Kayla Itsines’ quickie workout (p40) into my mornings – because, seven minutes. It’s over before you know it. (And done-as-soon-as-possible is my kind of workout!)…

Since she left rehab in November, Selena Gomez has made a pledge to put her health first. The 26-year-old star has been seen taking regular hikes around her home in LA, amid reports that she now has a full-time life coach. ‘It’s not like a sober coach,’ a source explains, ‘because Selena’s issues are much greater than just alcohol.’ But while Selena appears happy and healthy, pals are worried that her recovery may be on shaky ground after she was seen looking dishevelled while leaving celebrity hotspot Firefly bar with friends on December 18. ‘This is the last place anybody  wanted to see Selena after all she’s been through,’ a second source says. ‘It certainly wasn’t an encouraging sight to see her in a bar.’ It comes after Selena checked…

Kim Cattrall’s ‘no’ to another Sex and the City film has turned into a ‘maybe!’, despite her on-going feud with its star, Sarah Jessica Parker. ‘Playing Samantha Jones changed Kim’s life,’ sources tell. ‘It made her more famous than she could have ever imagined, and also made her very rich. The cheques are still coming in from the films and TV show. Never say never when it comes to making another film.’…

On December 19, Eva Mendes was spotted shopping in Hollywood with her two daughters, and a new accessory – a baby bump! The 44-year-old wore a loose-fitting shirt over her tee and denim skirt, but the telltale signs that another little one might be on the way couldn’t be mistaken. ‘They’re over the moon,’ an insider tells of the possible third addition to Eva’s family with long-time love, Ryan Gosling. ‘They’re telling friends it’s the miracle they never expected.’ The couple are notoriously known for keeping their personal lives extremely private. In fact, Eva was able to keep her last pregnancy a secret until the final weeks before she gave birth! But while the actress prefers to keep the happy news to herself, she’s not shy about sharing her love…

They joined forces on set for the second time last year, and it seems co-stars Margot Robbie and Brad Pitt have formed a very special bond while working on their new film Once Upon a Time In Hollywood. ‘Margot feels like Brad has been incredibly kind and generous toward her without ever wanting anything in return, including romance,’ an insider exclusively tells OK!. ‘He’s been beyond gentlemanly!’ Having met back in 2015 while working on The Big Short, Brad, 55, has kept tabs on Margot, 28, over the years, and the pair jumped at the chance to work together again on Quentin Tarantino’s new film. ‘Brad treats her like a real actress, and respects how seriously she takes the craft,’ tells the insider, who adds that the actor has been…

LOVE ALL! Anyone up for a game of tennis? Bachelor alumni Tim Robards and Anna Heinrich were kitted up for a match recently, dressing in their tennis whites for a day out with Champagne house Piper-Heidsieck. The fitness fanatic couple will be courtside for the Australian Open 2019 as part of the brand’s crew. Fun! BEACH BABY Pregnant Laura Byrne showed off her beautiful bump at the beach with her baes! The bikini babe and her baby daddy, Matty Johnson, made puppy parenting look easy with her three-legged pooch Buster. MIGHTY BRAVE Orlando Bloom couldn’t help but chuckle as he walked the streets with his cute dog Mighty, after the petite pooch attempted to rile up another four-legged friend on the footpath. The actor was in…

BREAKFAST Avocado pudding is Kourt’s go-to breakfast. She mixes one whole avocado, sugar cane, half a cup of milk and one tablespoon of raw Manuka honey (while on the keto diet, she likely substituted the sugar and honey). LUNCH  A salad with protein like chicken or salmon. SNACK ‘I usually drink hot green tea after lunch,’ says Kourtney, who also munches on raw almonds and fresh fruit. DINNER Grilled chicken and fish over broccoli rice, cauliflower rice or spaghetti squash. DESSERT  Matcha chia seed pudding.…

A lot of celebs have spruiked the benefits of cutting carbs from their diet. But, you don’t have to take such drastic measures – there is a plan that lets you have your bread and eat it, too! Carb cycling is having a major moment right now, with everyone from Kim Kardashian to Julianne Hough advocating the trend. Even Aussie stunner Lara Worthington spills that she enjoys pizza ‘at least twice a week.’ YOUR CARB INTAKE NEEDS TO VARY FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT ‘It’s been an incredibly useful tool in effective diet planning for decades and I swear by it,’ explains celebrity personal trainer David Kingsbury – whose client roster has included Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal. ‘Name a movie for which I’ve trained the leading cast, and…

1 FIND A COACH OR MENTOR Former Miss Universe Australia Tegan didn’t have to look far to find the perfect mentor! Her boyfriend, Blake Worrall-Thompson, is a personal trainer who specialises in neurolinguistic programming – a form of self-development which aims to alter negative thoughts and behaviours. ‘He’s really taught me the benefits of having someone unpick and clear these limiting beliefs.’ 2 MAKE EXERCISE PLAYTIME Getting in a good workout doesn’t mean being a slave to the treadmill. ‘It used to kill my soul, and I’d find any excuse under the sun to avoid my workouts,’ admits Tegan. These days, the Aussie star would rather shoot hoops with her housemates at their local basketball court. ‘Other activities that I like are tennis and kicking the footy in the park,’…

BURPEES Start in a standing position, squat down and place your hands on the ground, shoulder width apart. Now jump your feet back and extend your legs, so you land in a plank position. Jump your feet back to your hands and jump up to standing again. HEEL TOUCHES Lie down on your back with your knees raised and your feet flat on the ground, close to your bottom, shoulder width apart. Lift your shoulders off the ground so that you’re in a crunch position, with your arms extended along your sides. Stretch one hand at a time to the same side heel and tap. Keep your shoulders off the ground. TOE TOUCHES Laying on your back, extend your legs straight up to the sky, so that your body makes…

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20 Take this visit from the sun as an opportunity to forge ahead with your identity in the world. At the same time, make sure you keep an eye on your relationships, especially around the 10th and 13th. There will be a lot of planetary action happening then.

JESSICA CHASTAIN VS DUCHESS MEGHAN We have to say it was a very close call, but Jessica’s open-toed sandals add a perfect simple touch to this whimsical Oscar de la Renta ball gown. TAYLOR HILL VS TARAJI P HENSON With wide-leg pants, it’s easy to get lost under all the layers. But Taylor’s gold belt adds hourglass definition to this Brandon Maxwell outfit. EMILY RATAJKOWSKI VS BELLA HADID Bella may have been the first to wear this tasselled number on the Oscar de la Renta runway, but it was Emily who nailed the art of the perfect wrap. Using a softer knot shows off this intricate skirt to its best advantage. ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO VS PENÉLOPE CRUZ As much as we love Penélope in this flirty pink frock by Chanel, Alessandra…

First, they closed down their beloved DASH stores, then they revealed they were shutting down their official apps. And with ratings for their show now lower than ever, it looks like it’ll soon be lights out for the Kardashians. The latest nail in the coffin came when Kim, 38, Khloé, 34, Kourtney, 39, and Kylie, 21, announced that they’d made the ‘difficult decision’ to close their apps – a year after their sister Kendall, 23, closed hers. It comes amid rumours that E! is pulling the plug on Keeping Up with the Kardashians when their $212 million contract ends in 2019. ‘Viewership has fallen off a cliff recently,’ an insider explains. ‘Executives are starting to panic and are considering rebuilding the network without the family.’ And Kim and her mum…

After almost two decades of marriage, Victoria and David Beckham have been through it all. But 2018 will stand out as one of the couple’s worst. ‘Both David and Victoria acknowledge that this year was tough,’ an insider explains of the pair. ‘It felt like barely a week went by when they didn’t suffer some sort of negative headline or speculation over their marriage.’ Their attendance at the British Fashion Awards together just last month didn’t help speculation. During their first red carpet appearance since August, many noted how tense things looked between them. ‘They sat together for the ceremony, but moved apart at the afterparty,’ one guest said. ‘They were only seen briefly speaking to each other once in about 25 minutes before they left.’ “WHO KNOWS WHAT THE…

Jennifer Aniston has finally snapped! Friends are spilling that almost a year after her split from Justin Theroux, the Dumplin’ star has finally given her ex-hubby a piece of her mind. After listening to him whinge and whine about missing New York throughout their two-year marriage, insiders say Jen, 49, has been growing increasingly frustrated that Justin, 47, is still hanging around Los Angeles. ‘Everyone knows Justin never wanted to live in California while he was with Jen because he’s such a New Yorker at heart,’ explains a well-placed source. ‘It was one of the biggest sticking points in their marriage. But now he can’t get enough of LA.’ On December 4, Justin was in Hollywood shooting Jimmy Kimmel Live! – just one day before Jen appeared on the show.…

clean-eating Kourtney – who limits her gluten and dairy intake and tries to follow the keto diet – sticks to three low-carb meals a day that are high in protein and healthy fats. ‘It was a really positive experience for me,’ says Kourt, who advises to Talk about a hot mama! Kourtney Kardashian is in the shape of her life right now – and she’s worked very hard to get there. ‘I believe we have one life to live, and I would like to live it feeling my best,’ says the 39-year-old star, who’s mum to Mason, eight, Penelope, six, and Reign, three. “I BELIEVE WE HAVE ONE LIFE TO LIVE, AND I WANT TO FEEL MY BEST” To get extra lean, check with your doctor before starting the intense…

JUMP ROPE ‘Not only is jumping rope a really easy way to get your heart rate going before a workout, it also engages your entire body, using everything from your core to your arms and legs,’ Kourt says of the ‘calorie-blasting preworkout’. ‘Also, this is a workout you can do virtually anywhere, inside or outdoors, at home or while travelling.’ SQUATS ‘I did 200 chair squats to help keep my hamstrings, glutes and quads toned. Just pretend you’re about to sit on a chair and pop up into a standing position while engaging your core,’ says Kourt. LUNGES ‘A power walk on the beach is always a great workout, since sand makes your leg muscles work harder. To kick this up a notch, mix in some lunges at the beginning…

Tegan and Blake love to travel – and this wanderlust inspired the duo to embark on an exciting new venture with Contiki Travel. ‘I recently went to Portugal with Blake on a Contiki tour, and our theme of the trip was “love your body,”’ tells Tegan. ‘Whilst travelling, I shared some of my favourite health and fitness hacks on social media, and my audience loved it. So we decided to create our own wellness trip in Thailand to help travellers get past those challenges and kickstart 2019 with a healthy balance of fun and fitness!’ The Newcastle-born beauty knows a thing or two about staying healthy on the go. ‘I always have an array of immune-boosting supplements that I take when flying,’ Tegan shares. ‘When I’m travelling a lot and…

DON’T go overboard. Dot foundation on your forehead and nose, and blend before looking to see if other areas need coverage or can be left bare. DO prep the skin. Wait five minutes for your moisturiser to sink in before applying foundation, otherwise it will just ‘slide off’. Or mix foundation with moisturiser and pat onto the skin. DON’T let your foundation sit on your skin for too long. Blend it as soon as you apply or you’ll end up looking blotchy. DO finish with some loose powder to set the face and prevent shine. Use a powder puff or small brush to lightly dust the powder down the face. DON’T scrimp on time. A few extra minutes spent applying your foundation in the morning will ensure that it stays…

“LIMIT YOURSELF TO ONE SMALL ‘DUMPING TRAY’ OR ‘JUNK BOWL’” 1 PACK YOUR BAGS Hang onto those cardboard tubes when you use up your paper towels or cling wrap, and use them to store extra (reusable) plastic bags tidily in a drawer. Similarly, you can recycle wet wipe canisters for the same purpose. 2 KITCHEN CALM Free up bench space by attaching a magnetic strip beneath overhead kitchen cabinets to hold spice jars with metallic lids. Store frying pans, baking sheets, pot lids and cutting boards on their sides, using a filing rack or organiser. 3 OUT OF SIGHT Conceal files, tax receipts and office supplies like folders inside a storage chest. 4 PAPER TRAIL Reduce paper clutter by taking photos of menus or business flyers. Likewise, download user manuals,…

1 KENDALL JENNER $31.3 MILLION She’s said she’s more ‘selective’ about the work she does than other models, but that hasn’t stopped the 23-year-old from raking in the cash! Kenny topped the list with a whopping $31.3m, which she made last year from campaigns with brands like Estée Lauder, Adidas and Calvin Klein. 2 KARLIE KLOSS $18 MILLION She may have been in the business for more than a decade, but 2018 saw Karlie, 26, take home more moolah than she’s ever received before. The model’s large Instagram following of eight million has seen her secure deals with Swarovski, Adidas and Estée Lauder. 3 ROSIE HUNTINGTONWHITELEY $16 MILLION While Rosie earned $16 million this year, the 31-year-old wants to maintain her wealth for years to come. She’s expanded her line…

Taylor Swift wants a wedding extravaganza to rival Meghan Markle’s royal nuptials, sources tell. But the 29-year-old songbird’s demands are driving everyone crazy! ‘Taylor has the best designers, stylists and wedding planners that money can buy, but rather than listen to the experts, she’s telling them how to do their jobs,’ tells an insider. ‘She wants her wedding to be even more spectacular than Meghan Markle’s! It’s a tall order, but Taylor wants what she wants.’ Tay would like to have two lavish ceremonies – one in Nashville and another in fiancé Joe Alwyn’s hometown, London, sources say. And Taylor – who began dating Joe, 27, on the down-low in early 2017 – is micromanaging it all. According to sources, the singer’s demands may be grating on Joe  – who’s…

Justin Bieber may be putting his singing career on ice! ‘[The hockey fan] is looking seriously into buying, with investor support, an NHL team – either the Anaheim Ducks or the Los Angeles Kings,’ an insider spills. ‘If that doesn’t work out, he plans to get proper training in sports management and start his own team.’ According to the pal, it’s all part of the 24-year-old’s quest to find meaning in his life outside of music. ‘Justin feels like performing and touring led to terrible problems in his life. He’s always viewed hockey as something much more wholesome – something that could also one day allow him to coach and support the development of young people,’ says the insider, adding that Justin would love to work with underprivileged kids.…

Victoria famously said, ‘I never tell anyone if I have a boyfriend, just in case there’s a better offer around the corner.’ Which is exactly what happened when she dated late former child star Corey Haim in the ’90s. It was during their romance that she was reportedly two-timing him with florist’s son Stuart Bilton and her future hubby David! ‘We never really did split up,’ Corey said at the time. ‘I’m not happy to hear she cheated on me with another guy.’ As for Vic, she insists they were nothing more than a brief hook-up. ‘We didn’t have sex or anything… the most we did was kiss.’…

STAY WELL-HYDRATED Dietitian Maryann Walsh says water is key when it comes to following any diet plan. ‘We often mistake thirst for hunger,’ she says. ‘So it’s important to remain adequately hydrated throughout the day.’ Add mint, lemon or cucumber for a different twist. SNACK ON HEALTHY FATS Snacking also keeps hunger at bay, so try grazing on foods that are low on carbs and high on healthy fats, such as macadamia nuts, pumpkin seeds or peanut butter with celery. ‘Fat is a staple of the keto diet and helps keep you feeling full,’ Maryann explains. CHOCOLATE IS ALLOWED In case you were wondering (and let’s face it, we all were!), chocolate is allowed – although it’s better to stick to the dark variety. ‘Two squares…

‘I don’t often drink, but when I do, a tequila cocktail is what I usually make,’ says Kourt, who prefers natural and fresh flavours every time over drinks that are artificial and sweet. ‘I don’t like anything too sugary. I only use fresh lime juice and a touch of agave.’ SERVES 1 INGREDIENTS 3-5 fresh limes 90ml tequila A dash of organic agave Ice INSTRUCTIONS 1 Wash limes and cut in half. 2 Squeeze limes until you have 90ml of fresh juice. 3 Place juice, tequila, a dash of organic agave and a handful of ice in a cocktail shaker. 4 Shake, then test the mixture with a straw to make sure it’s not too sour. If it needs to be sweetened, add more agave and shake again. 5 Pour…

BELLA HADID Bella, 22, runs nonstop for 20 minutes, ‘followed by a boxing session and finally a series of weights targeting the abs and glutes’. OLIVIA CULPO ‘I’ve been really loving SoulCycle and I do Pilates,’ says the 26-year-old, who isn’t afraid of ‘blood, sweat and tears’. NINA AGDAL The 26-year-old’s beach body secret? ‘Thirty minutes of intense cardio followed by lifting weights. I try to hit the gym three or four times a week.’ HAILEY BALDWIN ‘I used to be a ballet dancer, so I enjoy those types of workouts,’ says the 22-year-old, who follows a produce-rich diet.

You don’t need a gym to work out, you just need to be creative,’ Aussie models Steph Claire Smith and Laura Henshaw reveal in their new book A Girl’s Guide to Kicking Goals. ‘Our workouts are different every day, because we always want to challenge our bodies. Just as it’s important to have variety in your diet, it’s important to have variations in your workouts, too.’ So what are you waiting for? Grab a skipping rope and weights (if you don’t own any, a couple of filled water bottles or some food cans will do the trick) and get moving! (PS There’s a glossary over the page if you’re unsure of any moves!) DAY 1 HIIT This high-intensity interval workout will leave you out of breath and covered in sweat,…

During summer, we tend to switch from dark colours to something a little lighter and more colourful. That could all be about to change, as catwalks showed off heavy charcoal eyes during AW18 shows – and it’s a look that’s had A-lister approval on the red carpet, too! If you’re game to take the classic smoky eye to the next level with a new grungy feel, here’s how… HOW TO MAKE IT WORK Always apply primer over eyelids to keep your product in place for longer and to avoid smudging. Opt for soft, neutral lips to avoid looking OTT – your eyes should always be the main focus. Use a liner pencil or crayon to create the shape first, then colour in for a neater, stronger finish. Practise this look…

30 The amount of little black dresses she thinks she owns. ‘I never realised how many I had until I cleaned out my closet,’ she admits. 2 She’s only ever been apart from her filmmaker hubby Justin Ervin, who she wed in 2010, for two weeks. ‘It’s absolutely fabulous. I love it,’ she said of their careers being based on opposite coasts. ‘We just meet in LA or New York. We meet in Paris and Miami. It’s pretty sexy.’ ASHLEY’S NET WORTH $13.8 million 4 She always carries four lip products with her: a balm, lipstick, lip gloss and a liner. ‘Call me crazy,’ she says, ‘but I need my lips to look luscious at all times.’ 5 She’s either been a…
