Talk about dragging it out. First it was the wait for to find out whether Sam Smith had the Bond theme job, then the months to actually hear the track, now it’s time for the teasers for the ‘Spectre’ song. It’s not a new strategy. For years, Bond bosses have revelled in the games. NASA […]

Two mega, superstar collaborations happened this weekend. Each one had one a huge American female star coupled with a multi-million selling British frontman – but whose was best? Number one. She’s had everyone from her Cara Delevingne-fronted girl squad to Steven Tyler on stage during her ‘1989’ tour. But Taylor Swift saved Mick Jagger as a […]

Keith Richards is pretty chilled these days although occasionally he likes to exercise his acid tongue. It seems that time is now as he’s given Metallica, Black Sabbath and rap music a swift kick with one of his battered cowboy boots. The Rolling Stones rocker branded heavy metal bands “jokes” and said rap music only […]

Tom Hardy is drawn to complex characters like a moth to a flame. Mad Max, Bronson, Bane in ‘The Dark Knight Rises’, Forrest Bonduran for Lawless; they’re pretty dark, mad bastards. But it’s his first dual role of Ronnie and Reggie Kray he’s found the most challenging. “It is the hardest thing that I’ve ever […]

What does a former England cricket captain really know about cooking fish and chips? Freddie Flintoff bought a fish and chip van, put on his white coat and cranked up his deep-fat fryers to cook for the nation in the TV show Lord Of The Fries. But even though that was a while ago now, he […]

Freddie Flintoff is famous for the way he held court in the dressing room; tales of tomfoolery and naked karaoke were common during his days as England’s talisman. The dressing room was a place he adored and in which he thrived, so it’s no surprise the 37-year-old has created a new one away from the […]

“Sometimes I don’t think we get enough credit for how hard we party,” says Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis. “It’s a well-kept secret, perhaps that’s for the best, maybe we should keep it that way…” The band aren’t long back from playing a festival in Romania where, after the gig, they pulled an all-nighter with a whisky […]

Miss MoneyPenny, Pussy Galore, Xenia Onatopp – we all know the female characters in James Bond are as important as the spy himself. The 24th 007 film SPECTRE is no different, and how refreshing to have 50-year-old Monica Bellucci cast over younger counterparts alongside the very talented French actress Léa Seydoux. The film has released […]

It’s a well-told tale that Hollywood puts unattainable beauty standards on women and is notoriously sexist, and what happened to Amy Schumer at her first audition proves it.
