Media giant Condé Nast has shared a call out on LinkedIn to find its new head for US Vogue a week after longstanding Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour announced she is stepping back

The conclave of the fashion world is kicking off with a LinkedIn job posting. A week after Anna Wintour announced she will be stepping back as Editor-in-Chief of Vogue US, the publication’s parent company Condé Nast took to the networking site to open the door for her replacement.

With an image captioned “WE ARE HIRING” Condé Nast posted on its LinkedIn page: “Condé Nast is hiring a Head of Editorial Content for U.S Vogue.” The post included an email address for keen candidates to reach out to the prominent leadership consulting agency, Spencer Stuart.

“If you are interested, please reach out by email with your resume to condenast@spencerstuart.com” the post concluded. It was unsurprisingly vague, with no information on job qualifications, job description or salary information. There is also no posting for the position as of yet on the Condé Nast job site.

The likelihood that Vogue US will choose its Head of Editorial Content from LinkedIn is fairly slim. Maybe only slightly more plausible than the next pope being recruited through LinkedIn.

Even the keenest of fashion journalists and students found it difficult to take the posting seriously, with the comments descending into speculation on the successor and Devil Wears Prada memes. “On LinkedIn lol. The ultimate job troll post” wrote one user. “Can’t wait for us to hear about the replacement they 100% selected before posting this and we find out it’s a big name who probably hasn’t seen a job application in decades,” commented on PR specialist.

The new head will undoubtedly be chosen in the upper echelons of Condé Nast and a prerequisite for consideration being an established bond with Wintour.

In her 37-year reign as Editor-in-Chief, Wintour has fostered a reputation for being heavily involved in every link of the publication’s production and wields a heavy influence at Condé Nast as well, serving as Chief Content Officer.

The new successor will take charge of the magazine’s daily operations and shape its creative and editorial direction. They will notably not take on Wintour’s former title of Editor-in-Chief, but the title of Head of Editorial Content.

While many have speculated that Wintour’s ego had to do with the difference in title, the same change occurred at British Vogue in 2023. After Edward Enniful left his role as EIC after six years, he was replaced by Chioma Nnadi as Head of Editorial Content for the publication.

That said, Wintour will oversee HOECs at all Vogues in her capacity as Chief Content Officer for Condé Nast. The new HOEC for Vogue US will report directly to Wintour as well. In an article announcing Wintour’s departure, Vogue wrote that the addition of a new editorial lead for Vogue US will “allow Wintour greater time and flexibility to support the other global markets that Condé Nast serves”.

Rumours have been swirling for a week about Wintour will select to lead Vogue US in its next chapter. British Vogue’s Chioma Nnadi is rumoured to be the front-runner for the role, given her longstanding relationship with Wintour and history with Condé Nast.

Sharing the news of her departure with Vogue staff on June 26, Wintour said: “Anybody in a creative field knows how essential it is never to stop growing in one’s work. When I became the editor of Vogue, I was eager to prove to all who might listen that there was a new, exciting way to imagine an American fashion magazine.

“Now, I find that my greatest pleasure is helping the next generation of impassioned editors storm the field with their own ideas, supported by a new, exciting view of what a major media company can be. And that is exactly the kind of person we need to now look for to be HOEC for US Vogue.”

As reported by Vogue, many of Wintour’s responsibilities at the US publication would remain the same: “including paying very close attention to the fashion industry and the creative cultural force that is our extraordinary Met Ball and charting the course of future Vogue Worlds and any other original fearless ideas we may come up with. And it goes without saying that I plan to remain Vogue’s tennis and theater editor in perpetuity.

“But how thrilling it will be,” she concluded, “to work alongside someone new who will challenge us, inspire us, and make us all think about Vogue in a myriad of original ways.”

Big Brother star Charley Uchea, who is best known for her antics in the 2007 series of the show, revealed her injuries after a horrific car crash which left her unconscious

Former Big Brother star Charley Uchea has been rushed to hospital after a horrific car crash as she was “left for dead”.

The reality favourite, who shot to fame on the show’s eighth series in 2007, told fans she was “lucky to be alive” after being knocked unconscious in a collision with a truck in the United States of America.

In an emotional Instagram update, the 40-year-old was seen in a neck brace with cuts on her face, admitting she was struggling to move her arms and legs and was in “agony.” She posted a shocking photo of a wrecked picked up truck, writing: “Look at the damage this truck did just by hitting me then leaves me [for] dead on the side of the road.”

She reiterated how fortunate she felt to have survived the ordeal, despite being in severe pain. The crash also forced her to cancel a dream trip to Hawaii for her 41st birthday on 30 June.

“To think we was flying to Hawaii for my bday and now I’m bed bound ‘cause I can’t walk or anything,” she said. “Just in agony. Yes, I’m lucky to be alive but this pain feels like I’m dying.”

In another video shared with her followers, the reality star showed a nurse tenderly brushing her hair, “Bless my nurse brushing my hair out. I can’t really use my arms atm. I’m so weak.” as she is currently too weak to use her arms. Despite the setback, she reassured her fans that she would be “home soon”.

Charley became one of Big Brother’s most talked-about housemates thanks to her fiery clashes with Chanelle Hayes while in the Big Brother House together in 2007.

She was memorably evicted in week eight – only to discover it was a hoax, with Davina McCall offering her the chance to re-enter after revealing who’d nominated her.

In 2023, Charley slammed the ITV reboot of the show, branding it “a load of s***.” Addressing her 251,000 followers, she said “Please stop asking me if I’ve watched Big Brother. The answer is no. Yes, I had a great experience from it and done well but I don’t watch it, simple.”

Carrie Johnson has opened up about her “real rollercoaster” since she and former prime minister Boris Johnson welcomed their fourth child, a baby girl named Poppy

The spouse of a former prime minister has candidly shared her “struggle” with motherhood. Carrie Johnson, the wife of Boris Johnson, has openly spoken about experiencing “struggle” and shedding “tears” following the arrival of their latest family member six weeks ago.

She reveals the highs and lows of parenting on Instagram, not holding back on the demanding nature of raising children. She describes their time since welcoming the new addition as both incredibly joyous yet “overwhelming.”

In an emotional post, she penned: “The first six weeks of Poppy. The last few weeks have been a real rollercoaster but overwhelmingly, very happy indeed.

“There has been [very] little sleep, quite a few tears and even a dash to hospital. Some days it’s a struggle to even get dressed in the morning, given Pop wants to be held all the time.

“In these pics I look vaguely presentable but most days I’m rocking the mum bun, have huge dark circles under my eyes and am wearing clothes covered in baby vomit.

“BUT here are some of the highlights – introducing Pop to friends and family, celebrating birthdays and even taking her to Warwick for my university reunion. Now all four kids are home for summer, the real chaos begins!”

This June saw Carrie, 37, posting a photo from the hospital with her daughter, Poppy Eliza Josephine. She disclosed: “Being hospitalised for two nights for severe dehydration was not on my postpartum bingo card.”

She also urged fellow “breastfeeding mums” to stay well-nourished and hydrated amidst the sweltering heat, particularly those who are “clusterfeeding”. The arrival of Poppy on May 21 marked the addition of a fourth child to their family.

Their son Frank made his entrance in July 2023, joining siblings Romy, born in December 2021, and Wilfred, who arrived in April 2020. During her hospital stay, she shared an Instagram story about her tough week, describing it as “honestly brutal.”

“Mastitis (me), reflux (her), dehydration (me). What a pair we are!,” she continued. She expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support and valuable advice on handling reflux, saying: “Really appreciate it and made me feel way less alone going through it all. And as ever, thanks to our amazing NHS.”

Her candid revelation about the past six weeks’ struggles prompted an influx of supportive messages. The post quickly garnered over 9,000 likes.

One individual commented: “You’re doing a good job, Carrie. Be proud of yourself mama.” Another penned: “Poppy doesn’t care. She knows she’s loved.”

A third chimed in with: “Beautiful photos with your words of reality. Keep being you. Grateful you share your lovely family with kindness and the reality.”

And a fourth added their voice, saying: “You have a beautiful family Carrie. Cherish these days because before you know it they will be stroppy teenagers.”

Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs is a legend on Oasis, but not everyone understands why he is called that. In this article, he explains everything.

It is the great nickname in Oasis – but the reason why guitarist Paul Arthurs is called Bonehead goes back to his childhood.

The 60-year-old owes his moniker to his parents and their hatred of long hair, before he was playing gigs with Noel and Liam Gallagher.

Taking up the story in the Oasis book Supersonic, Paul said: “I probably got the name Bonehead when I was eight.

I didn’t have long hair in 1973, which was the traditional style at the time, but most people in my primary school did. They have no long hair in our house, and it was straight down the barbers every Friday, you know, typical Irish Catholic parents.

They gave me the 50 pence, and I had to go down. Describe it. Your short back and sides, please? ‘.

On our street, there is no longer any hair. So I shortened myself from eight years old. Some kids say, “Ah, look at the bonehead! “, you know. ‘. That was it.

“When I entered secondary school, even the teachers called me Bonehead, and even when they were enraged, Bonehead, it wasn’t “Arthur’s.” You first became aware of your problems at that point. Bonehead was the surname you were given when you first learned it, and it has always been so.

The guitarist acknowledged that he had experimented with the name a little since he had been in Oasis and when they were getting big and doing interviews because of the straightforward nature of the nickname Bonehead.

He continued, “When we became very well-known, we used to conduct interviews in France, and people want to know why I was called Bonehead.” I used to constantly remind them that my family history had been preserved. The Bonehead was short for me, and my real name is Bonaparte Headimas. People adored it.

Noel and Liam Gallagher and Bonehead have remained close friends throughout their ups and downs, which is unusual for a member of the Oasis inner circle. Although the Gallaghers adore Manchester City, Bonehead is a red, and even that makes them uneasy.

Some insiders found him to be a “glue” that will keep this tour together in the event of conflicts.

When Bonehead was preparing for rehearsals, he has been sharing photos of his selection of Adidas trainers every day on social media. He has also been trying the welsh teacakes since arriving in Cardiff before the first night when he has been brewing in his spare time away from the stage.

After playing with Liam on his Definitely Maybe solo tour in 2024, Bonehead will be playing with them on the Oasis Live 25 tour. Andy will join Gem Archer and Andy Bell on bass for the massive sold-out shows.

Additionally, Christian Madden, the band’s keyboard player, and Joey Waronker, the band’s drummer, have added a new woman, Jess Greenfield, as their backing singer.

As her daughter confirmed the depressing news, Maureen Hingert passed away at the age of 88. The King and I-starred actress from Hollywood passed away on Sunday from liver failure.

She appeared in a number of Hollywood movies, including The King and I, Gun Fever, and Gunmen From Laredo, and was born in Sri Lanka in 1937. Hingert’s daughter described her passing as “beautiful and peaceful” at Huntington Hospital in Pasadena.

The King and I, which received nine Oscar nominations, earned her her best-known work. Deborah Kerr, Yul Brynner, and Rita Moreno were among the actors who were nominated for five Academy Awards.

Hingert also appeared in Western films like Gun Fever and Gunmen From Laredo in 1959, where she prominently played a Native American role. She won the title of Miss Ceylon and had a successful pageant career in addition to acting.

She became the first person from her country to ever reach the final due to her success in the competition. Hingert’s participation in the contest is credited with putting her South Asian island nation “on the map.”

Hingert made the decision to remain in California and sign a deal with Universal after winning the title of Miss Ceylon. Along with Dorothy Malone and Jeff Chandler, she reprised her role in the western film Pillars of the Sky.

Hingert’s success was not limited to acting and modeling, as she frequently gave dance performances in Los Angeles. In September 1957, her photo shoot for the movie Gun Fever earned her a spot in Playboy Magazine.

Fort Bowie and The Rawhide Trail were other movies she co-starred in, as were Captain David Grief and The Hiram Holliday Adventures.

Hingert had already given birth to Gina, her third of three daughters by the year 1960 when she decided she was no longer interested in acting. She weds Howard Hughes’ corporate empire’s chief designer Mario Armond Zamparelli.

The Desert Inn and RKO Pictures movie posters were both made by the company. When she modeled for a TWA mural he was creating, Hingert met Mario.

From 1958 until their divorce in 1970, they were married. Gina, their daughter, passed away in 2018 from a brain tumor at the age of 59. Andrea, the daughter of Hingert and Mario, passed away in 2009 at the age of 42.
