We bring you the great and the not-so good of this week
The greatest!
1) She’s only 20, but Demi Lovato has got more chutzpah than most people twice her age. She stayed strong after her father’s death and has Simon Cowell wrapped around her finger – she’s avoided the chop and will be back on US X Factor in the autumn.
Totally great
2) For those of us who can’t quite pull off dungarees (er, that’ll be most of us, then), try boyfriend jeans, Miley Cyrus style – aka the second hottest way to wear denim this summer.
3) Lucky Pip: this summer, when she’s not watching tennis, Ms Middleton is busy attending super-posh weddings. Nice work if you can get it!
4) It’s the app that lets you send walkie-talkie-style voice messages instead of texts. Wow! Zello has fast become our new obsession – think Snapchat, but with vocals.
5) Newly-wed Avril Lavigne is staging a serious comeback, with a new single out today. Seems her Sk8er Boi days are long gone.
6) Dark roots, à la Nicki Minaj, are everywhere this season. A godsend, as who has the time or money to spend hours in the salon? Not us!
7) Biopic Diana has a release date at last – September 20. We can’t wait to see Naomi Watts as the People’s Princess – but here’s hoping it’s more hard-hitting than the trailer.
8) The gorge Maggie Gyllenhaal is set to take the leading role in BBC2’s new spy thriller The Honourable Woman, which starts filming this month. It’s gonna be huge.
9) Retirement seems to suit David Beckham – when he’s not winning the dads’ race at his kids’ school sports day, he’s toting around adorable Harper. The only question is, what’s next? Our bet is on a men’s grooming line.
Great
10) Dear readers, let us alert you to a dietary minefield: canapés. They’re not enough to make you feel full, but contain as many calories as a full meal (or two, if you pack away as many as we can). Where’s the fairness in that?
11) Apparently family photo albums (and our embarrassing baby pics) are on their way out, thanks to the unstoppable rise of all things digital. Is nothing sacred? hard-hitting than the trailer.
Not that great
12) We’re worried after seeing the pictures from Gucci’s S/S ’14 menswear show in Milan… We hope shiny floral pyjamas for blokes don’t catch on.
