However, Billy’s own insatiable need for revenge on Victor (Eric Braeden) overwhelms his common sense. Not even…

My miracle baby

“The doctor had said he didn’t think we could have a baby and that we should just stop trying.” Adrienne Frantz is lucky to be alive. Giving birth to the baby she never thought she could have almost cost the much-loved actress her life. After getting through a high-risk pregnancy and little Amelie entering the world through caesarean section, Frantz’s happiness quickly turned to a scene straight from one of her soap operas. Doctors frantically rushed to save her life when she developed a condition called accreta, where the placenta and uterus fuse together. “It turned into a bad scene out of Grey’s Anatomy with like 20 doctors rushing around.

Janet must put her personal pain aside to help end gun violence. An Australia Day shooting, after dozens of gunshot deaths, is the last straw for the State Government.

Bad boys can mellow

“As great as the internet is, it’s really important to monitor what your kids do.” Years ago Christian Slater was starring in movie after movie, partying and talking in interviews about his love of iconic star Jack Nicholson. Slater was the young guy with the older guy sensibilities, debuting in a film with elder statesman Sean Connery in The Name of the Rose, then appearing in the late ’80s cult classic Heathers, with Winona Ryder, followed by star turns in the 1990s in True Romance and Interview With A Vampire. That was before the clichéd “so-much-success-so-soon” Hollywood bug bit him. He got into some scuffles, got arrested a few times, spent some time in jail and spent some time in rehab for drug and alcohol problems. But eventually the fame and coverage…

Sylvester Stallone : Ever since I put on 40 pounds [18 kilograms] for [1997 film] Cop Land, I lost the vanity that’s involved with body-building. My vanity almost bordered on being feminine. I had a very hardened, nasty look. Now I feel better than ever. I work out the way a normal person works out. I have a fitness studio in my home. Muscles today are purely cosmetic. They’re adornment, like epaulets on a uniform. When I started working out, it was athletics, but that’s gone. Now it’s pure peacockery.” Liam Neeson: “When I fractured my pelvis, pubic bone, heel and a couple of toes in a motorcycle accident, I learnt a rehab routine that’s been good for me. It combines stretches, gym exercise and swimming. The swimming is very important. I do…

If you are a parent, you will know this when I say that parenting = hard! There are days where you are more tired than you thought possible, days when your kids are driving you so crazy you want to scream and nothing is as easy as it may seem. That’s real life. For what we see of celebrity parents, it seems so much easier. When they go out in public, they seem so put together. Their kids behave, even with cameras catching their every move, and the whole scene just looks superhuman. While I believe a lot of it is just for the cameras, I also believe many are genuinely great parents (with the added perks of course of money, nannies, cooks and stylists). There are times where I find myself…

Let’s paint the town!

Geena Davis and Madonna in A League of Their Own. “Come on babe, why don’t we paint the town? And all that jazz!” purrs Catherine Zeta-Jones as she bumps and grinds her way through the opening number of the classic Oscar-winning movie Chicago. The movie, one of the most exciting Best Picture winners of recent decades, helped put this Midwestern US city firmly back on the international tourist map. For the Australian visitor who focuses a US visit just on the coastal centres of LA, San Francisco and New York, Chicago reveals itself as something of a great surprise. For sheer beauty, stylish living and absolute grandeur of architecture, Chicago is one of the gems of North America. The first thing about Chicago to learn is it has two nicknames, and both are well…

Let’s paint the town!

“Come on babe, why don’t we paint the town? And all that jazz!” purrs Catherine Zeta-Jones as she bumps and grinds her way through the opening number of the classic Oscar-winning movie Chicago. The movie, one of the most exciting Best Picture winners of recent decades, helped put this Midwestern US city firmly back on the international tourist map. For the Australian visitor who focuses a US visit just on the coastal centres of LA, San Francisco and New York, Chicago reveals itself as something of a great surprise. For sheer beauty, stylish living and absolute grandeur of architecture, Chicago is one of the gems of North America. The first thing about Chicago to learn is it has two nicknames, and both are well earned. It soon becomes apparent why…

Shoppers are avoiding the innovative new biscuit in droves after an online campaign…

Discovering that Ben is on the verge of deserting her to be with his lover Paul, Abi has colluded with a sympathetic Babe to fake a pregnancy to keep Ben trapped with her. She’s even preparing to get pregnant for real to ensure her plan is a success. Meanwhile, the baby bombshell appears to have worked.

MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING 2 STARS Nia Vardalos, John Corbett, Louis Mandylor RELEASED March 24 My Big Fat Greek Wedding remains the highest grossing romantic comedy of all time so it’s no surprise they made a sequel, even if we did have to wait 14 years to see it. The follow-up reveals that Maria (Lainie Kazan) and Gus Portokalos (Michael Constantine) are not actually legally married and so they must have another wedding to make it right. Their daughter Toula (Nia Vardalos) is still happily married to Ian (John Corbett) but their daughter Paris (Elena Kampouris) is feeling suffocated by her enthusiastic family. MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN STARS Jennifer Garner, Martin Henderson, Queen Latifah RELEASED March 17 With her 10-year-old daughter Anna (Kylie Rogers) suffering from a rare and incurable digestive disorder, Christy (Jennifer Garner) does everything…

I’m a huge fan of The Bold and the Beautiful. Two of my favourite characters are Aussie Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) and Thomas (Pierson Fode). They both make an awesome, beautiful couple on the show. It’s time for Thomas to find true love with Ivy. Will it ever happen? I’m just so tired and bored seeing brothers Wyatt (Darin Brooks) and Liam (Scott Clifton) always win the girls. Hope for once to see Thomas be the love for Ivy. E. Will, Melbourne, Vic WIN The author of the Star letter will win this great art pack from STAEDTLER, valued at $100!

Blake flees to Mei Lin’s hotel room and buries a blood-soaked towel under the bed. What’s a good doctor to do while his personal life is at a crossroads? Keep busy solving crimes, of course, and Doctor Lucien Blake has more than enough on his plate investigating what looks like a suicide. When the team first hits the scene it seems a volunteer firefighter has jumped off the bell tower of the Ballarat Fire Station but even more shocking for Blake (Craig McLachlan) is discovering that the dead man is delivery company owner Rod Drury, Cec’s (Ian Rooney) younger brother. While there is a suicide note on the body, Cec is certain his brother didn’t take his own life though Blake needs little convincing as he is quick to pick up on the…

A runaway success

“The fans’ excitement to see us back was worth keeping it a secret for so long.” Presto special Home and Away: An Eye for an Eye was a reunion of sorts for actors Dan Ewing and Lisa Gormley who play fan favourites Heath and Bianca. They were more than happy to return to Summer Bay for the project, which saw their characters help Ricky (Bonnie Sveen) find her son Casey after he’d been kidnapped in a revenge plot by Brax’s (Stephen Peacocke) enemy, Gunno (Diarmid Heidenreich). While Heath, Ash (George Mason) and Kyle (Nic Westaway) track down baby Casey, Ricky, Bianca and Phoebe (Isabella Giovinazzo) try to come up with the ransom money. The special was a hit with viewers, breaking day-one streaming records. Dan and Lisa share their excitement about reprising their roles. How…

James was “super-nice”, she says. “When I met James before the ‘chemistry’ test I got a little more nervous because he’s really cute! But we were able to talk before the test as just ourselves. When we brought the scene in front of the producers, the energy was electric. Everybody felt it.” Look for Jade to become more involved with Joey in the weeks ahead. “Jade is a free spirit and a bad girl.

Former Home and Away star Rebecca Breeds has scored the lead role in a US drama pilot, Miranda’s Rights. The one-hour show will revolve around a group of lawyers who live and work together. Breed’s character Miranda is an attorney who is haunted by a scandal she was involved in during her early 20s but uses humour to deal with the notoriety of her past. The part comes hot on the heels of her performance in popular Australian miniseries Molly and her recurring role as a vampire in US series The Originals. Breeds played spirited teen Ruby Buckton in Home and Away from 2008 to 2012. She is married to fellow ex-Home and Away star Luke Mitchell who currently stars in the TV series Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..…
