Emily Atack’s choice to play the seductive Sarah Stratton in the new drama Rivals is subject to criticism, but she claims the performance was “perfect.”

The actress, who found fame as Charlotte in The Inbetweeners, campaigns to stop violence against women. And she claims that even playing a sex-using savant doesn’t in any way detract from her message. “I know lots of people will say, ‘ Hang on a minute. She talks about violence against women the minute she gets her kit off in a show the next minute. That doesn’t correlate, ‘ but what I’m trying to show is that it should not matter at all.

The Inbetweeners auditioned for Charlotte, and I immediately had the same feeling as when I read it: “Oh my god, this is perfect for me. ” There are situations in life where you feel like you’re meant for completely.

She says the joy of the character is that Sarah should be hateful, but she isn’t”. Sarah’s extremely promiscuous, but she’s also funny. There’s a comedy edge there. When women haven’t always been written well, especially women like this, “it was such an honor to be able to play a role like that,” she says. You could easily just make this woman completely stereotypical and unlikeable, and instead, she was instantly likeable. I immediately fell in love with her after reading the scene. It’s in my bones to play roles like that. “

When the series based on Jilly Cooper’s 1980s bonkbuster Rivals launches later this month, viewers will be Emily’s character bedding leading man Rupert Campbell-Black (Alex Hassell). In the nude, the pair also engage in a tennis match. She claimed she loved it, not that she was anxious about filming that particular scene. The tennis scene was probably one of my favourites. It was a beautiful sunny day and I’d been exercising, I’d been – I wouldn’t say dieting, I love wine and pasta too much – but I’d been doing my sit-ups and my squats, and I was ready to do this naked scene. “

She claimed that the entire cast benefited from each other because almost all of them participated in romantic comedies involving intimacy coordinators. It really interested me to see what nudity does to human beings – we were all like giggling teenagers, hugging each other, high-fiving each other, going, ‘ Oh my God! Yes! You did it! ‘ “

In the 80s man’s world, her character Sarah is ambitious. She is adamant about improving the situation that life has given her and ascending to the top in every way possible, starting with becoming Paul’s glitzy, much younger, second wife. Sarah uses her feminine fervor to take advantage of every opportunity, quickly disillusioned by the age gap and her bleak domestic life.

Emily claims that Sarah’s feelings are related to her. You feel forced to use your sexuality to achieve your goals, which is also a very personal gut feeling in your stomach from the years I’ve struggled in this industry. If you’re taught from a young age that’s what you have to do, then that’s what you do. “

Rivals episodes all start streaming on Disney+ on October 18.

During a pampering session at his Cotswolds mansion, David Beckham posed in a towel and showed off his chiselled six-pack.

The 49-year-old former footballer shares the lavish £12million home with wife Victoria, 50, and their daughter Harper, 13, as their eldest children Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 19, have all moved out of the family home. David posed topless in a number of racy snaps on social media to show that he was still in top shape despite announcing his retirement in 2013.

As he enjoyed a sauna and an ice bath, the former England midfielder claimed to be having a “self care Sunday” and was only sporting a white towel around his waist and a beanie hat. “Always important to take a minute to yourself and reset”, he wrote on Instagram, as he showed off his abs. In one photo, David is standing in front of his Iglucraft sauna, which retails for more than £14, 000, and can fit up to six people. The triple sauna also comes with a washroom, and a shower can be added, as well as benches and footstools.

In his Netflix documentary Beckham, David and Victoria admit to using their Cotswolds mansion as a peaceful retreat from their busy schedules. “I wanted a place where we could escape”, he explained, as he revealed the tennis court had been replaced with a football pitch, and his favourite place was a £50, 000 huge safari tent on the expansive grounds.

“On a Saturday morning, I just potter around this place. I love it. I’m in here from like 11 till like 9 o’clock at night, 10 o’clock at night, later sometimes, just grilling”, he said of the property’s outdoor living area. The enormous estate, located in Great Tew, is where David also harvests honey from his bees, and there’s also a massive swimming pool on the grounds.

David took to social media to update his chickens in the wake of reports that the Beckhams had spent $60 million on a posh Miami waterfront mansion. He joked last month that his Instagram content had changed as he had grown more vegetables and cared for his garden, and that he now enjoys doing so. David joked that his “content used to be motorbikes and camping, now it’s kale, honey, and flowers for the house,” and that he could hear his “earth end mates going “he has changed.”

Fans of TOWIE have been completely captivated by Jodie Wells’ relationship with James Diags’ Bennewith, but without the drama of a love triangle with his ex-girlfriend Elma Pazar. Now that Jodie and her young son Bear are moving to Essex, Jodie has made an announcement. In touching scenes that marked the end of the previous season, Diags hand over a key to his home to Jodie, making his adorable little one debut on the show.

Jodie, one of the most recent faces to appear on television, expressed her desire for a tranquil location in Essex when she first started out as an extra. This change aims to support Diag’s transition from a party animal to a family man, and she makes hints about wanting more bedrooms, which could indicate plans to grow their family. Everyone’s favourite cast member, 33 year old Diags, also dished the dirt on the message he sent to Elma that stirred up major controversy amongst their fellow cast members and the audience, culminating in explosive repercussions. Despite Jodie and Elma’s efforts to mend their rocky history, Diags now confesses: “There couldn’t have been a worse person to send that message to”, reports OK!

Will they be able to resolve the issue and proceed amicably? Only time will tell. They provide all of this information here.

Hi, Jodie! At the beginning of the series, James apologized to Elma by sending her a text telling her he missed her. What are your thoughts on that?

He’s just an idiot – he has a drink and he just thinks all of his jokes are funny, and they’re not. There is no evidence to support it, in my opinion. I believe he was merely making an absurd joke. But it’s a joke at my expense.

Since that, how are you two doing?

Yeah, we’re OK now me and him. Elma and I are also good. Off screen and on screen we have had conversations, we went on a night out. We’re at a really good place and it’s going well. Hopefully, this will continue.

When Diags gave you the key to his apartment in the previous season, you appeared a little shocked.

Because we joked that we hadn’t got a key to his apartment, I didn’t anticipate that. I didn’t realize he was actually asking me to move in. Moving in will take some time, though. I’ve got a little boy. Everything needs to be right.

It’s a big move for you, isn’t it? From Bristol to Essex?

Yeah, it is a big move. It isn’t like 20 minutes down the road. However, I desire it. I do want to check it out for accuracy.

Sophie Kasaei and her boyfriend Jordan Brook moved from Newcastle to Essex on December 1. Has she supported you well?

Yeah, I love Sophie so much. She’s like my little mum. She’s the best.

What features will you most like about a house?

I definitely want a garden. It would be nice if my son could just go outside and play since I have a young child. Maybe it’s three bedrooms, if we have other children. Just so once we have a house, we don’t have to move again. It must be placed in the appropriate location, we must make sure.

You’ve got your family in Bristol. What do they think of it? Are they nervous?

They’re fine. They want me to be happy. I mean, it’s not like it is ages away. He [Bear] will still see his father the same amount of time as he sees him now, and I’m still going to be able to see them. I’m not just going to take him away from his dad… we have spoken about it and everything’s all good.

Do you know Essex well? What locations do you plan to house hunt?

I like where James currently resides. A little more quiet would be nice for me. A bit more countryside. Where do you think raising a child would be a good idea, and I think it might also benefit James. It’s bringing him away slightly from the party lifestyle, and to think about more of a family lifestyle.

It will be quite a change for him, won’t it? But he appears to be very sentimental about you and the situation and only wanted to get things right…

Yeah, I love him, he’s lush.

Which other friendship organizations do you belong to because Sophie is looking out for you?

Ella]Wise], Dani]Imbert] and Roman]Hackett] is like my bestest friend in the world. I love him so much, he is the best. I’m friends with everyone else, I actually am. I speak to Joe]Blackman]. I spoke to Harry]Derbidge]. I’ve spoken to Amy]Childs]. Obviously, we both have children. We speak about that. I’m just in a really good place.

DIAGS:

Hi, Diags! Could you please explain why you texted Elma in a drunken message to say you missed her?

I made a silly, silly mistake. I made a joke that wasn’t very funny – it was drunken. I’d been drinking tequila, thinking I was being funny because they]Jodie and Elma] had just made up. Looking back, I thought it would be funny, but in retrospect, it was not at all funny. And it’s caused me a lot of s**t. It seems to be OK at the moment. They’ve actually become friends.

You must feel bad about Jodie’s recent difficult series, because…

I want her to feel as at ease as possible, and that must always be the case. They probably will get on, if it wasn’t for me. I nearly completely destroyed the entire situation. However, we have all gone out together and are progressing.

What steps have you taken to avoid Elma and Jodie?

I thanked both of them for their kind words; they both made me feel bad about it. I’ve said sorry for making it strange and awkward once more, but I’ve got to accept that. There couldn’t have been a worse person to send that message to, at least I have been honest. Jodie said, “Why did you do that knowing how insecure I was about the whole situation”? She’s been quite understanding. I paid well for the pair of sunglasses she was wearing, but it was well worth it. I took her for a nice dinner, just me and her. Maybe I’ll drive her into town.

The cause of Madonna’s younger brother Christopher Ciccone’s death has been confirmed.

The 63-year-old man, who was surrounded by his husband Ray Thacker and their loved ones, passed away peacefully in Michigan. And his cause of death has been revealed as cancer, according to Christopher’s obituary.

Christopher’s death comes just over a week after the siblings ‘ stepmother, Joan Clare Ciccone, died on September 24. She also passed away after a brief but aggressive cancer battle.

Throughout the course of Madonna’s career, Christopher and Madonna forged close partnerships. However, in 2008, Christopher released a bombshell book called Life with My Sister Madonna, which caused a major backlash.

Christopher had previously worked in the design, production, and distribution sectors, where he organized concert shows, music videos, and movies. A source close to the Christopher said, “He was a very talented man with a wicked sense of humor.”

In the book, Christopher claims Madonna’s film director ex-husband, Guy Ritchie, “drove at him” and admitted they “never got along”. He added that Guy’s relationship with the singer was “the death knell for my relationship with her.”

He went on to claim that the Vogue singer was a “middle class girl who propagates the story that she landed in Time Square with only a pair of ballet shoes and a $35 name.” However, his bombshell claims didn’t stop that and he added her narrative is “pure mythology and the further she progresses, the more mythological her life story becomes”.

Despite the huge fallout, by 2012, it’s thought the siblings had reconciled. In an interview at the time with Evening Standard, Christopher said: “(We are) on a perfectly personable level right now. As far as I’m concerned, we’re good. We are in contact with each other, although I haven’t seen her for a long time. We’re back to being a brother and sister. I don’t work for her, and it’s better this way”.

He gushed about his older sister’s pride as well. “I couldn’t be more proud of her”, he continued. She is “a force to be reckoned with.” Does she have Barbra Streisand’s voice? No. Can she dance like Martha Graham? Probably not. But her abilities combined to make her outstanding, and she left a significant legacy for me, both through her. So yeah, God bless her”.

Christopher is survived by sister Madonna and their siblings Martin, Paula, Melanie, Jennifer and Mario, as well as their father and countless nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Emily Parr, a 19-year-old drama student, made a racist comment during her brief appearance on Big Brother in 2007 to tarnish her brief appearance.

Back then, the blonde reality TV star, looked young, similar to that of most students her age. But now, 17 years on from being kicked off the Channel 4 show, after making a racist remark to one of her fellow housemates, Emily looks sophisticated, elegant and demure.

The social media lifestyle influencer, 36, who boasts 50, 000 followers, now sports a flattering shoulder length bob hair style. In one of her photos, she wears a satin off-the-shoulder dress and tied her hair up leaving the front section to encircle her face.

She also showed off a flawless complexion while wearing her hair down in yet another photo. Her social media posts also revealed that she is planning to walk down the aisle, which justifies her posting bridal-related content, including beauty products.

In a tumultuous eighth season, Emily abruptly left Big Brother. At the time, the show was won by Brian Belo. The show went down in history after producers felt it was necessary to axe her from the program, aside from Brian’s charismatic personality. She was spotted making a racist comment to her housemate Charley Uchea in the garden.

And she was promptly led out of the house before receiving a sincere apology. There is no amount of words that can describe how sorry and foolish I am, she told the audience at the time, who found her statement to be offensive. However, we have all got to move forward, and I only ask that those who read this understand what actually happened and accept my apology.

And in a job interview with OK! She acknowledged that she “tries not to revisit” her turbulent time on the show in 2021. She remarked, “The media noise and intrusion was bad, but what was worse and lasted for a while was the deep shame I felt about what I had said. The only way I could correct my error was to educate myself and become much more knowledgeable about what these racist slurs mean and why they are so awful. She continued, “as well as having a better understanding of racism and how it manifests in our society today.”

The One Direction member who allegedly threw the singer against a wall has now been revealed as Liam Payne’s ex-girlfriend.

The Strip That Down hitmaker discussed the violent altercation in a contentious interview with Logan Paul’s podcast back in 2022 as he recalls a bandmate throwing him against a wall. Recalling the backstage spat, Liam said: “There was an argument backstage and one member, in particular, threw me up a wall. So I said to him, ‘ If you don’t remove those hands, there’s a high likelihood you’ll never use them again”, Liam said.

Fans have been searching for the identity of Liam’s bandmate ever since the interview, and rumors have been circulating about it. Now, the singer’s ex Maya Henry has addressed the mystery, after she was tagged in a video on TikTok which claimed it was Louis Tomlinson. She finally revealed it was Zayn Malik after saying to fans that she “could not hold this information in any any more.”

“I see this all the time, everywhere, I’ve heard this insufferable story so many times…he told me it was Zayn, so”, Maya stated in the clip. Fans swarmed social media after the identity was revealed, with one tweeting: “Idk what happened but I just know zayn was in the right”, as another agreed: “idek the situation but I am 100% sure liam deserved it”. A third quipped: “zayn you will always have my heart good job”.

In an interview back in 2022, Liam criticized his bandmates, including Harry Styles and Niall Horan. Discussing his time in the hugely successful boyband, he spoke about why he “dislikes” Zayn, and blamed his upbringing, as he alleged Zayn’s family wasn’t supportive.

“With his growth and whatever else, I would have to go through what he went through.” My parents support me excessively, making it irksome at times. In that regard, Zayn was raised differently. You can always look at the man for where he is and say: ‘ Oh yeah, whatever, that guy’s a d**k”, Liam stated. At the end of the day, however, you can only understand what he’s been through and whether or not he desired to be there.

According to reports, the singer allegedly shoved his ex-girlfriend Gigi Hadid’s mother Yolanda during an argument, but he also touched on Zayn’s alleged altercation. “Listen, I don’t agree with any of his actions. I can’t commend some of the things that he’s done. I can’t be on his side for that. The person at the other end of the phone wants to receive the assistance you’re willing to give them, he said, adding that I fully understand and that your only hope is that one day.
