”CAMERON SIPS WATER WITH LEMON INSTEAD OF HAVING A COCKTAIL” When Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden announced the happy and healthy arrival of their first child, daughter Raddix, in January, they knew it was going to be a year of change. They thought they’d pulled off the surprise of the year after revealing the birth of their baby girl – reportedly born via surrogate – but little did they know there was one more surprise in store!

DITCH THE SNAIL MAIL It’s estimated that around 100 million trees around the world are harvested annually to produce the world’s junk mail. In Australia alone, around 8.2 billion articles of junk mail are produced each year – and most will be binned instantly. Consider investing in a No Junk Mail sticker or sign to put on your mailbox. It’s also worthwhile to ask places like your bank, energy company and insurance provider to send all future correspondence electronically. BIN PAPER TOWELS FOR GOOD Globally, around 254 million tonnes of paper towels are sent to landfill every year.

They went on to a lot of success, but there were people saying, “You shouldn’t have been sick!”’ We’re pleased…

Eating food that’s in season is not just a trendy new food movement – it makes sense, from both a taste and nutrition point of view. Food at its peak will have the maximum nutritional value and be at its lowest price. It’s time to say ‘No!’ to cherries in winter or oranges in the middle of summer. When you buy what’s in season, you buy food that… • is at the peak of its supply, so it’s fresher • costs less for farmers to harvest and to get to your supermarket or greengrocer • is sold before it spoils, and not refrigerated or put in cold storage…

They both rocketed to fame on our favourite teen dramas – and after splashing out a staggering $10.5 million on a new luxury mansion, Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester and The OC’s Adam Brody have most certainly come a long way since! After purchasing their first property in Malibu in 2014, the year they married, the couple recently upgraded to a stunning home in Pacific Palisades, LA, which has been dubbed ‘beach chic farmhouse’.

So we’ve all heard of Marie Kondo, right? She’s the Japanese organising consultant who teaches people to cut down on any belongings that don’t ‘spark joy’, and live a more minimalist life. Well, now it’s not just about cutting back on belongings – it’s also about minimising the space in which you keep it – your home!

So, how big (or should we say, how small?!) is a tiny house? ‘Currently, there are no definite measurements that qualify a tiny house –…

Katy Perry has confessed she’s ‘more bridechilla than bridezilla’ when it comes to marrying her fiancé Orlando Bloom. But her blasé attitude may have backfired – and now the wedding could be off… permanently! Their wedding planning was moving full steam ahead until late last year when they found out they were having a baby! A baby Bloom certainly put a spanner in the works, with Katy calling off their Hawaiian New Year’s nuptials. ‘Katy got into an epic fight with her bridesmaids and Orlando over it,’ an insider reveals. They rescheduled for June in Japan, as their legal teams negotiated a ‘complicated’ prenup – Katy’s worth $480 million and Orlando’s worth $64 million – but now that coronavirus has hit, the bash has been cancelled indefinitely. ‘Katy was excited…

The couple have only Lady Gaga thought she’d never love again, with two failed engagements and a string of bad romances under her belt. been dating for a few months, but Gaga is already talking about getting married – and having kids – with the 36-year-old Silicon Valley CEO. ‘The timing couldn’t be better. She’s always wanted to start having children in her mid-30s and, of course, Michael makes her happy as hell,’ a source reveals. ‘She’d propose to Michael right now and marry him on the spot if she could, but she’s trying to be patient.’ That doesn’t mean she can’t put it out into the universe.…

Motherhood hasn’t exactly started off on the right note – or sound – for Amy Schumer! The actress has announced she and husband Chris Fischer, 40, were forced to change their eleven-month-old son’s name after realising it sounded a lot like a particular intimate area! Speaking on her podcast 3 Girls, 1 Keith, Amy, 38, explained, ‘It’s now Gene David Fischer. It was Gene Attell  Fischer, but we realised that, by accident, named our son “genital.”’ LOL! The couple initially meant well, as their son’s middle name was a tribute to their friend, comedian Dave Attell. Better late than never to get it sorted!…

The current health crisis has given people the chance to stop and take stock of their lives, and that certainly has been the case for Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. After two years of escalating drama – which came to a head in January when the 38-year-old and Prince Harry, 35, blindsided the family and announced they were leaving as senior working royals and moving to North America – there’s been a major mea culpa on Meghan’s part. ‘Being in isolation has forced Meghan to have a new perspective about everything, including her feud with Duchess Kate,’ says a source. ‘It’s hit home that life’s too short for fallouts and petty arguments. Meghan is determined to make up for her mistakes – and she’s starting by saying she’s sorry to Kate…

Food waste is a huge problem. We throw out up to 20 per cent of all the food we buy, which is such a shame considering all the energy it takes to grow, harvest, package, transport, store and cook it all – not to mention the fact that we’re wasting our own hard-earned money every time we throw out food! But it’s not only a waste of money – as landfill, food waste generates methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The Australia Institute claims that each tonne of food waste also releases the equivalent of almost a tonne of carbon dioxide – and also requires great tracts of precious land to bury it in. This is an edited extract from Nutrition for Life by Catherine Saxelby (Hardie Grant Books, $34.99). DID…

COUNTRY MAMA It’s a long way from The Hills for Kristin Cavallari! She’s swapped the big smoke for a simpler life with hubby Jay Cutler and their three kids – Camden, seven, Jaxon, five, and Saylor, four – in Franklin, Tennessee, just outside Nashville. And while she still loves LA, she definitely has no plans to return there. ‘It’s not a place I would want to raise a family, to be honest,’ she tells. ‘I really like that we’re out in the country and my kids are outside all day, every day. That’s just how we want to raise our kids.’ LIKE A BOSS Last year, Kristin opened an Uncommon James jewellery store in Chicago – the third after her flagship store in Nashville and LA mini-store. And with the…

VISUAL You know you’re more of a visual person when you use words such as ‘see’ and ‘imagine’ when describing things or situations. ‘You also tend to prefer watching a documentary over listening to a podcast,’ says Luke. ‘If this sounds like you, I’d recommend flame or ocean meditation. [This is where you] concentrate on the flame of a candle or the horizon of the ocean, trying to notice all the subtle changes – the shifting colours, shapes and movement of these visual experiences.’ AUDITORY You love podcasts, are sensitive to sounds happening around you and focus best when listening to music. ‘You will most often respond best to a mantra type of meditation, like transcendental or Vedic, where your focus is on a repeated word or phrase,’ says Luke.…

Their romance has been moving at warp speed ever since they were spotted sharing a passionate kiss on a beach in Costa Rica in early March. And less than two months later, it looks like Ben Affleck and Ana De Armas have already taken things to the next level! The pair – who met while filming the thriller Deep Water, and who are isolating together in the actor’s Pacific Palisades mansion – stepped out recently to grab some food. And while Ben, 47, could barely keep his hands off the brunette beauty, 31, it was the new bling on Ana’s left hand that was the most distracting part of their outing. The actress was sporting a stunning engagement-style ring and even though it wasn’t on the correct finger, there’s whispers…

Adding to her wedding concerns is Katy’s previous failed marriage to Russell Brand, 44. In 2010, the former couple tied the knot in India, before calling it quits 14 months later. In a later interview, the I Kissed A Girl singer confessed the comedian had broken up with her via text. ‘Let’s just say I haven’t heard from him since he texted me saying he was divorcing me December 31, 2011.’ The demise of their relationship shattered Katy’s idea of marriage. ‘I was in bed for about two weeks. I was pretty f---ed, yes. It hurt a lot.’…
