Angela Bassett The American Horror Story actress looks fierce in a kimono-inspired Christian Siriano gown. Sarah Paulson We’re green with envy over The People v. O.J. Simpson beauty’s crystal Prada creation. Jane Krakowski This violet Bibhu Mohapatra design with pearl details does little for the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt star. Viola Davis How to Get Away with Murder? Simply don a bold magenta ballgown by Marchesa like Viola here. Mandy Moore We’d love to see Moore of the This is Us actress in marigold – this Prabal Gurung dress is gorgeous! TinaFey The colour of her Oscar de la Renta number is divine, but this style is a little humdrum. Tatiana Maslany Orphan Black lead Tatiana looks simply red-hot in a pared-back Alexander Wang frock. Sofía Vergara Va-va-voom! The Modern Family…

For 12 years, Hollywood golden couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stuck together through thick and thin. With their six children in tow, the once-devoted couple – known to most as Brangelina – travelled the globe for film roles, bravely dealt with Angelina’s health problems and spearheaded humanitarian issues. But in the end, it was one shocking incident that allegedly spelled the dramatic end to their fairytale romance. Former heart-throb Brad is under investigation by the FBI for child abuse after reportedly launching into a drunken rage while on a private jet with his wife and children, Maddox, 15, Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and eight-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. An intoxicated Brad is said to have “gone wild” on September 14, screaming abuse at his family and “getting…

Pippa Middleton’s penchant for the limelight has been causing tension with her sister, the Duchess of Cambridge, for years. And now insiders fear a revealing newspaper interview to promote her latest charity project could be the final straw. “Pippa doesn’t see what’s wrong with talking publicly about what she says is a great cause,” tells a palace source. “But as far as Kate’s concerned, she’s capitalising on her royal status and she’s told her it’s highly inappropriate. She’s absolutely furious.” As reported in Woman’s Day last week, the sisters are at loggerheads over Pippa’s plan to sell the rights to her wedding photos. But undeterred, Pippa, 33 – who recently became engaged to her hedge-fund manager beau James Matthews, 41 – told a newspaper last week that coping with fame…

She got plenty of sun on a luxury getaway in the Greek islands, but tropical cocktails were off the menu for Mariah Carey because we hear she’s pregnant! “She couldn’t be happier,” reports a source close to the 46-year-old “Hero” diva, who is engaged to billionaire media mogul James Packer, 49, and has seven-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex Nick Cannon. “James is feeling pretty proud too – he can’t wait to start their family.” Thought to still be in her first trimester, Mariah – who gained a huge 30kg in her first pregnancy – is fretting to pals about being a plump bride. Our source says, “She’s been freaking out about looking big in a wedding dress, so the couple are going to wait a few months until…

As Woman’s Day creeps out on to the ice in the penguin enclosure at Kelly Tarlton’s Sea Life Aquarium in Auckland, we’re introduced to a chilly world full of colourful personalities and scandalous romances. Recognising each bird by their posture, behaviour or tags, penguin team leader Madeline Seaman greets her charges by their names – and they greet her right back with a frantic “ecstatic display” of bowing. Noah and Shadows are “the Brad and Angelina of the aquarium”, says Maddy, 26, pointing out a pair of loved-up gentoo penguins during our shoot, which happened before the Jolie-Pitt split! Then there are king penguins Thelma and Louise, a same-sex female couple who have been together for five years – they’ve only produced infertile eggs but have been “awesome mums” to…

AMANDA SEYFRIED PROBLEM: REDNESS IF YOU HAVE A FLORID APPEARANCE LIKE AMANDA, A GENTLE SKINCARE ROUTINE WILL WORK WONDERS How does it appear? Skin can look red and flushed, and might also be blotchy and warm to the touch. Redness commonly affects the cheeks but can also affect the nose, chin and neck or chest areas. What’s the cause? The skin is thinner and more delicate, and the capillaries can overreact to stimuli such as heat and friction. In some cases, the skin may also be touch sensitive. Additional causes include UV exposure, spicy food, alcohol, incorrect use of skincare products and stress. What can I do? Reduce your skin’s exposure to heat and friction, and avoid washing your face with hot water or using exfoliating scrubs. Look for products…

I had another one of those phone calls the other day. Regular readers of this column will know how accident-prone my little girl is. The number of times she’s been in the sick bay, at A&E, in bandages ... you name it, I’ve lost count. This time was no exception. I’d waved her off all smiles that morning as she headed off on a school trip to Cornwall Park in Auckland. Her class was doing a walk to the summit of One Tree Hill while admiring daffodils and spring lambs, and taking in the large green spaces we’re so lucky to have in this country. All seemed rosy, but alas not for long. As soon as my cellphone rang, I knew. I know from experience that a school doesn’t ring…

Your letters Bernadine fan Your article about Bernadine Oliver-Kerby and her beloved late father Grant (WD, September 26) was one of my highlights from your magazine this week. I have always enjoyed Bernadine’s professionalism on our TV screens, as well as her sense of humour and friendliness, so the fact that she is still able to shine despite all that has happened to her and her family made me admire her even more. Thank you for making us all more aware of motor neurone disease, Bernadine. • A.J., Foxton Beach Blac-lash I’ve made it no secret that I detest the Kardashian clan. However, on reading about Blac Chyna’s naked photo shoot (WD, September 12), I was disgusted, to put it mildly. Blac, it seems, is more vulgar than even her…

JAMES AND MICHELLE Season one James and Michelle hit it off straight away, but their chemistry soon fizzled out. By the time the show’s finale had aired last year, 34-year-old Michelle had rekindled a romance with her high-school sweetheart, rugby league player Rob Worsley – and the pair were already man and wife, having married in a secret garden ceremony. “We’re just so in love,” she gushes of her new hubby. ALEX AND ZOE Season one These sweethearts were a match made in Married at First Sight heaven. Head over heels in love, they are the only couple from the show’s debut season who have stayed together. After sadly suffering a miscarriage last year, the couple became even more keen to start a family. And following months of trying, the…

FUNNY GIRLS, FRIDAY, 10PM, TV3 ROSE’S DIRT ON LAURA DANIEL 1 Laura loves Diet Coke like how a dad loves a cold beer at the end of the day. 2 If we have a comedy show or we’re going out for a drink, Laura will keep on her eyelashes from filming. So she’ll often look like the Beyoncé of improv comedy. I have been known to do this as well, but we don’t tell our make-up department. 3 Laura loves salt. She has been known to take her own salt shaker around with her in her bag. She is also obsessed with ham-and-cheese toasties, with added salt, of course! 4 Laura’s best friend is her pet rabbit called Champ and she will often send cute selfies of them together to…

SHOW ME SHORTS FILM FESTIVAL, VARIOUS LOCATIONS, OCTOBER 1 – JANUARY 2 As Show Me Shorts, New Zealand’s leading international short-film festival, returns to Auckland for its 11th year, we grab five minutes with Outrageous Fortune star Aidee Walker to find out more about her role in the intriguing “vom-com” Shout at the Ground. Tell us about the film ... It’s an 11-minute comedy that’s set in the early ‘90s and follows a Kiwi rock band who are trapped in a speeding van. I play their manager. It’s been referred to as a “vom-com” because they succumb to travel sickness while figuring out the heist that robbed them of their door takings! You’ve also written, directed and are acting in your very own movie, Break in the Weather.…

For most of us, the thought of stripping off for a photographer would be something of a terrifying prospect, but when Woman’s Day gingerly asks Jay-Jay Harvey whether she’ll pose nude for a fun photo shoot, the answer is immediately yes. After all, it’s the perfect way to promote her new book, which sees the radio star reveal the naked truth about her crazy career – as well as her secret separation from her husband and long-time The Edge co-host Dom. But in the minutes following her enthusiastic acceptance, there is a flurry of emails. “I warn you – I don’t have my dancer’s body any more,” the former Dancing with the Stars contestant writes, following this up with, “I hate my body,” and, “I’m currently eating a pie.” However,…

A pale Princess Anne wrapped up warm and managed to attend her daughter Zara Tindall’s horse trials in Gloucestershire last week, but insiders say concern is mounting over her health. The 66-year-old was forced to cancel a trip to Africa last week due to a nasty chest infection. Her brother Prince Andrew, 56, will now fly to Botswana and Mozambique in her place. Buckingham Palace insiders reveal that the princess has struggled to recover after being briefly admitted to hospital earlier this month. But with royal engagements closer to home still scheduled for Anne, we’re told she’s determined to soldier on. “She’s extremely tough,” tells one source. “She doesn’t like being ill and isn’t comfortable with attention. She’s doing her best to come through it.”…

After nine months together, One Direction hottie Liam Payne and The X Factor UK’s Cheryl Fernandez-Versini are rumoured to be expecting the pitter-patter of tiny feet! The former Girls Aloud singer, 33, has stayed out of the spotlight since being spotted with a noticeably rounder tummy in May and now Liam, 23, has changed his Twitter bio to describe himself as “the luckiest man in the world”. “Cheryl’s been a recluse over the past few months – she’s refused to attend her friends’ birthday parties and most days won’t leave the house as she complains of feeling under the weather,” says a source close to the brunette babe. “She’s told pals she feels constantly exhausted and nauseous, which is why she’s been laying so low.” The baby will be the…

She’s had a rocky time on the relationship front, but Khloé Kardashian is finally smiling in the arms of her rumoured fiancé Tristan Thompson. However, her mum Kris Jenner isn’t so sure about her daughter’s new man. Woman’s Day can reveal the reality TV matriarch, 60, has shelled out $500,000 on a private investigator to uncover any skeletons the NBA star, 25, may be hiding in his closet. “Based on past relationships, Kris doesn’t trust Khloé to pick a man who doesn’t have addiction issues, so she is sparing no expense in having every element of Tristan’s life documented by secret agents,” a family insider tells us. “They are pouring through his financial records, interviewing everyone who’s close to him and following his every move while he is involved with…

Hanging on a bedroom wall in Laurie Anderson’s brick-and-tile home in Christchurch is a precious family portrait. Taken in 1995, it shows Laurie, his partner Angela Blackmoore and her toddler Dillon smiling self-consciously at the camera, their whole lives ahead of them. “We were a little family and family is everything to me,” says Laurie, now 51. But a week after the trio posed for that portrait at a photographic studio, 21-year-old Angela was dead. Laurie came home from work at 11.20pm on the night of August 17, 1995, to find his partner lying in the kitchen, face-up in a pool of blood. Angela, who was 10 weeks pregnant, had been stabbed 39 times in a frenzied knife attack. Her two-year-old son Dillon was asleep in his bed. Horror discovery…

Whether you prefer it at the centre or the side, sleek or wavy, here’s how to recreate these on-trend parted looks at home. SLEEK CENTRE PARTING 1. Begin by washing hair with a smoothing shampoo and conditioner designed to tame unruly, frizzy hair. 2. Divide wet hair into equal parts and comb a heat-protecting shine spray through from root to tip to ensure an even barrier throughout. 3. Blow-dry hair straight down until completely dry, then follow with a pair of straightening tongs. 4. Use a pintail comb to draw your parting straight down the centre of your scalp, using the bridge of your nose as a guide. 5. To finish, rub a walnut-sized amount of anti-frizz serum through hair. BOHO PARTING 1. Wash your hair with a lightweight shampoo…

Taking teenagers on holiday is a gamble, but we increased our chances of success by taking a straw poll first – and Rarotonga came out a clear winner. 1 Relax There’s something about Rarotonga – it’s impossible to feel uptight here. I work full-time and, ask anyone, I’m not generally one to lie about. There’s always sooo much to do! My husband Ken and two sons, Angus, 19, and Hugo, 16, are the opposite – those dudes are experts in lazing around and within minutes of arriving at the stunning Te Vakaroa Villas at beautiful Muri Beach, I was right there with them. The lapping ocean, the warm breeze, the duty-free vodka ... There was no need to transition from harassed working mum to holiday mode – the switch was…

Q It might sound petty, but a colleague of mine keeps buying the same clothes and shoes as me. In fact, she makes a point of it, keeps referring to it as “twinning” and suggests we start posting on social media. I spend a bit of time trying to find unique outfits and while I should be flattered she wants to copy me, I find it flat-out annoying. How do I tactfully ask her to give me my look back? • Peas in a Pod, via email A Well, here’s the thing. First up, never tell anyone where you buy your look, doll. The answer is always “Sydney” or, “It was a gift!” That would annoy me and I know it’s supposed to be flattering, but it’s just plain weird!…

Q My husband has suggested getting away from the kids and going to Auckland for my 40th for a “dirty weekend” together. I’d like to do something amazing to surprise him and make it memorable. Any ideas? • Excited, Warkworth A Well, it’s always hard to speak on behalf of other people, but the world is your oyster if you keep an open mind. Remember it’s your birthday, Mrs 40, so all the practical effort should be made on his part. I’d focus on you and what you want because the more in charge you are of sexual proceedings, the better the chances you’ll come away feeling like you’ve made some memories. For want of a better word, it’s very easy in a long-term marriage to fall into a rut.…

WENTWORTH, MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 8.40PM, TV2 Our fave Monday-night drama Wentworth draws to a dramatic close tonight, with the thrilling season-four finale. We jumped at the chance to chat with Tammy MacIntosh, who plays evil vigilante Kaz Proctor, to get the lowdown about the explosive series. We love Wentworth this season! What do you think sets it apart? It’s completely relentless in its telling of the daily life and struggles of women in prison. I remember watching the first episode of season four at home in Sydney and I said, “I don’t know if I can watch this.” I was sitting in shock, thinking, “This is so disturbing.” What can we expect from the finale? Make sure you have some tissues and one or two bottles…

Oh dear readers, can you believe the Brangelina fairytale has ended in such a nightmare? Hollywood’s ultimate supercouple, with the best catchy moniker mash-up of the lot, is kaput. It’s Brangelexit! For 12 years, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have captivated us. When their genetically blessed worlds collided on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith, Brad and Ange sizzled and we were hooked. It might have started with scandal – Brad’s wife, America’s sweetheart Jennifer Aniston, was left heartbroken – but Brangelina endured and resulted in six beautiful children, a castle and a wedding with doodles from the kids on the bridal gown. It was true love. Their story was better than any movie script – and magazine magic. Woman’s Day was there from the get-go and poring over…

JANUARY 2004 Sparks fly as Brad and Angelina meet on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith, in which they play married assassins. But the pair deny rumours of an on-set romance, insisting they’re just friends – after all, Brad is married to Hollywood sweetheart Jennifer Aniston! Nicole Kidman had originally been due to play Brad’s love interest in the flick but pulled out due to a scheduling conflict. JANUARY 7, 2005 The day after kissing tenderly on a Caribbean beach, Brad and Jennifer announce they’re separating after five years of marriage. The rumour mill goes into overdrive. MARCH 17, 2005 Between reshoots for Mr & Mrs Smith, Brad and Angelina promote the movie at a convention in Las Vegas, taking great pains to stand as far apart as possible.…

Engagement rumours have reached fever pitch after Princess Eugenie and her bar-owner beau Jack Brooksbank travelled to Scotland to visit the Queen together last week. It’s believed the love-struck pair were seeking permission from Eugenie’s grandmother to get married – and our sources say they couldn’t be more excited. “The Queen is happy to welcome Eugenie’s boyfriend into the royal fold,” reports an insider. “It was certainly nerve-wracking for Jack in particular, but Eugenie said he handled himself brilliantly.” Dressed in formal attire as they headed to Balmoral, where Prince Harry was hosting a shooting party to celebrate his 32nd birthday, Jack was seen smiling nervously. He and Eugenie, 26, have been together for six years and while he’s met the Queen before, insiders say this was the final step…

Hanging out with her husband Dave and daughter Cristelle at our exclusive Woman’s Day’s photo shoot, it’s plain to see this is where The Real Housewives of Auckland star Michelle Blanchard is happiest. Carefree and relaxed as she poses for our cameras, it’s a far cry from the shocking scenes that aired in last week’s episode of the Bravo series, with the British model on the receiving end of a racist insult from co-star Julia Sloane. Michelle, 44, was seen hurling a champagne glass and sobbing uncontrollably in the controversial episode in which Julia shockingly used the “N word”. While the incident only made it to screens last week, in reality, it happened while the women were in Port Douglas back in June. Michelle, also mum to son Curtis, 14,…

Brenda Bartels cradles her beautiful wee girl Anya and kisses her porcelain cheeks. The two-and-a-half-year-old’s ice-blue eyes struggle to focus, but she is blissful in her mother’s arms. “This is my happy,” says Brenda. An extremely rare metabolic condition has robbed the auburn-haired tot of the ability to talk, sit or feed on her own. And heartbreakingly, Brenda and her husband Sam, both 32, know their precious daughter is only an angel lent. Says Sam, “We try not to think too much about the future.” Tragically, the path the Waikato couple are walking is one they have trod before. In March last year, their older daughter, Leah, passed away in their arms at home. She was two-and-a-half – the same age Anya is now. Brenda and Sam spent Leah’s lifetime…

They say summer bodies are made in winter, but with this easy-to-follow diet trend from LA, you can start your bikini body mission right now. Experts call it “carb cycling” – alternating between high and low-carbohydrate days. It’s a method designed to speed up your metabolism so you burn fat faster. Better still, you won’t go hungry because each day there are plenty of delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner options, as well as snacks, to tuck into. And because you’re only limiting carbs every other day, you won’t get those pass-me-the-cookie-jar-now cravings that often come with strict diets. You even get a day off! If you add a few fat-burning exercises to the mix, you could find yourself two kilos lighter and a lot more svelte in just 14 days!…

Some people’s bodies are a temple. Others are a mosque. Mine is a desert – a dry, dry desert. From the look of it, you’d swear my skin has not seen a drop of moisture since Noah grounded the Ark. In fact, I could turn moisturising into a full-time job. It’s easy enough to do the face, even morning and night. But the face is really only a very small part of a person. If you take out the eyes and mouth, you’re really only left with the hole a balaclava leaves. Too easy. The rest of the bod? Oy. My neck alone requires 100ml of unguent per hour. My arms and legs soak it up like butter on Vogel’s. You’ve seen those photos of cracked, dry mud in the…

Grown-ups diarise things, apparently. Adults put their appointments in their phones, on their laptops and sometimes even in an old-school diary. I’m not of either breed. I could be called neither a grown-up nor an adult, therefore I don’t do any of the above. I should. I really, really should. Instead, I rely on that fail-safe method of making an appointment by saying to the person I’m making said appointment with, “So you’ll text me the day before and remind me, right?” This is not an advisable method of running one’s life. I find that of all the endless goofy possibilities, it’s probably the goofiest way of managing oneself. For some reason, and I have no idea why, I always make every appointment for 11am Tuesday. This invariably means I…

THE BRIDES BELLA, 30 A top job in radio saw Bella put romance on hold. “I needed to achieve things before I could be with someone,” she explains, adding she’s now ready to find the one. MONICA, 28 This unlucky-in-love manager is the youngest and only singleton of her eight siblings. “I believe in the science behind the show,” tells Monica. JESS, 31 Sassy Jess is looking for someone who has “a strong sense of self”, but who doesn’t have “poor hygiene and a lack of love for doughnuts”! NICOLE, 28 Schoolteacher Nicole has babies on the brain. “I would love to find someone special to share my life with and start a family,” says the clucky contestant.

Feisty Bachelor New Zealand star Nazanin Khanjani might be known as “Nasty Naz”, but she has some serious competition in Bella Henry, the make-up artist daughter of broadcaster Paul Henry, who is set to take her on in the ring this weekend. Squaring up at our shoot just hours after first meeting, the frosty pair barely speak to each other. “I think we’ll both bring a really good game,” says Bella. “But I want to win. I’ve never won anything in my life, so it would be cool.” Naz, 26, was due to fight radio star Lily Taurau in July but had to pull out due to a kidney infection. Now she can’t wait to punch it out in the undercard bout to the Joseph Parker vs Alexander Dimitrenko fight.…
