EXCLUSIVE The shocking act Christian Wilkins admits he would do to make it big in Hollywood
Christian Wilkins has revealed the shock act he would perform in order to score a Hollywood movie role.
Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Australia at Australian Fashion Week, Christian, who moved to LA in 2023 to pursue his acting career, said he would shave his luscious locks for a movie role.
'Yeah, I mean Anne Hathaway won an Oscar for doing that [for Les Misérables],' he said.
'Only if I can win an Oscar, that's where I am!
'I love my hair... I feel it is such a big part of my identity, but to be able to chase your dreams and do something you really love, of course.'
Christian previously starred alongside Babygirl actress Sophie Wilde and Samuel Johnson in the 2021 Stan Original Series Eden.
The fashion icon, who effortlessly pushes the boundaries of style and gender-normative conventions in the world of fashion, sat down for an exclusive interview with Daily Mail Australia amid the chaos of Carriageworks.
He used his five-minute breather between shows to share all the details of his beauty and exercise regime.
The Sydney-born star said to achieve the perfect blowout he swears by the Shark FlexStyle which he uses 'all the time'.
'It's really rare that you get to work with brands that you genuinely love,' he said of the appliance company, praising their innovation.
And as for how he keeps his hair healthy, Christian narrows it down to one thing - genetics.
'People ask me all the time what I do. I do take supplements and collagen and stuff like that, but I think it's really genetics [and Shark beauty],' he said with a wink.
When it comes to his skin, the actor and LGBTQIA+ activist relies on a new Hollywood go-to to keep his face fresh and glowy.

'I have a really simple skincare routine. I use collagen peptides and then beef tallow,' Christian adds.
'In the States, it's huge at the moment. People are using beef tallow for their healthcare, for their skincare.'
Beef tallow, a new viral skincare product, is a type of fat rendered from cow meat or mutton suet.
The model also leans on the Mediterranean diet to keep his body in shape, going back to his roots when filling up a plate.
'My mum is Greek and cooking healthy foods and proteins and vegetables was always what I grew up on,' he revealed.
'I was that kid that went to school with falafel and hummus and fresh zucchini.'
It's no surprise Christian's physical splendour is down to a passion for fitness and a love of lifting weights, but perhaps what is more touching is the care and softness he feels towards his body as he ages and his new life outlook after turning 30.
'My body has changed quite a bit,' he shared.
'I used to find it easy to be slender. Now, I'm putting on more muscle and I'm liking coming into my new body... really proud of that.'

Love Island star ‘calls police' after influencer he met on dating site accuses him of cheating with ‘500 women'
LOVE Island star Tak Chipangura has told fans he has 'called the police' after a single date with an influencer turned sour. Tak, who appeared on the Australian series of Love Island, was accused by the woman of cheating with "500 women" following their night together. 4 4 Tak is believed to have met the female influencer on dating site Hinge but now claims to have got "the proper authorities" involved. The rapper and former security guard has accused the woman of "harassment, bullying, public safety and defamation of character". She has even been accused of telling Tak she "wished he died" after he had a minor prang in his car. In a lengthly statement on Instagram, Tak has broken his silence on the situation which he says occurred after he spent one night with her. He told his fans: "First I would love to say thank you for the love and support I've received, really appreciate the ones who reached out to check in on me and make sure I'm doing okay. "I'm not going to feed into this behaviour, the people who know me know that I'm not capable of such things. "All of this will be dealt with accordingly and by the proper authorities as she has made some pretty serious and false allegations. "Harassment, bullying, public safety and defamation of character are serious offences and should not be taken lightly. "And to all the people that enable this behaviour making fake accounts to give her false information and formulate scenarios that never occurred, it's worth taking a long look in the mirror before contributing to the defamation of someone's character." Tak appeared in the 2022 series of Love Island Australia. Love Island UK left looking tame as Aussie contestants boast about 'pounding' on the show Before entering the villa, he spoke proudly of his "strong morals". He lasted 22 days on the show. Now working as a rapper and model, Tak is believed to have hooked up with the female influencer on Hinge for a date last week. The woman later posted a video on social media claiming he had been speaking to other women behind her back. "I am crashing out because a man has been deceiving me and about 500 other women," she ranted. The influencer, who is also Australian, also made a string of other allegations before they were delated. Fans have been left shocked by the situation and have given their opinions on Reddit. One said: "This is all because he met her 3 days ago. She's already obsessed with him when he only spoke to her as a general and didn't promise her kids, marriage etc. crazy." Another added: "I feel like this level of crashout would be warranted to some extent if they were in a committed relationship, but based on what he said it sounds like she's the only person he's met off hinge." And a third said: "Idgaf [I don't give a f***] about hook ups btw but agree he's allowed to say he's not keen to continue things with her without her losing her mind like this. Hopefully the police help him." 4

American Pie star Jason Biggs admits to snorting cocaine out of a trash can
American Pie star Jason Biggs has opened up about his past battle with drugs and alcohol - which saw him doing cocaine out of a trash can. The actor, 47, admitted to going on cocaine benders in a brutally honest interview on the Well With Arielle Lorre podcast this week. He said: 'I knew when I needed to call the coke dealer because I was gonna drink too much, and how much Ambien to take or benzos to take based on how much coke I'd had so I'd come down but hopefully not die.' After shooting to fame at 19 in the American Pie franchise, Biggs boasted that he had, 'money in the bank, coke in my pocket and nobody saying no to me.' He added: 'It was [amazing] but I was also aware of crazy that was.' The actor admitted to getting so blacked out during coke and booze-fueled benders that he'd forget what he did the night before. Sharing how dark his addiction became, Biggs admitted to hiding his drug use from his wife Jenny Mollen, who he married in 2008. He added: 'I was drinking a lot by myself and using a lot by myself and not telling my wife. 'I took advantage of her... I felt like I was able to put things past her and I did,' he then admitted that he would stay up into the early hours of the morning drinking alcohol and doing coke after his wife went to bed. At his lowest point, Biggs found himself doing drugs out of a trash can. Sharing the unbelievable story, the actor said that he was up snorting cocaine at 4am while his wife slept when he decided to throw out the bag, which still had some coke in it, to make himself stop. He threw the bag inside the trash in his kitchen and tried to go to bed, only to return fifteen minutes later to dig it out and do another line. In his second attempt to discard the bag, he went outside and put it in the large trash bins out the front of his Hollywood home. He initially planned to pop an Ambien and go to sleep, but soon the temptation of another bump became too much to resist. Biggs said: 'I went outside and I climbed into the bin and got the bag of coke out and went upstairs and did another line.' Fed up with his behavior, Biggs then got into his car and drove down Sunset Boulevard until he found a random house. Rifling through their garbage, the star found a discarded Starbucks cup with some coffee left in it at the bottom. He put the bag of cocaine inside and closed the lid, before tossing the filthy cup back into the bin and leaving. Biggs drove home, but turned the car around and returned to the garbage to fish the bag of coke out of the cup so he could do another line. He said: 'I drove back home and finished the bag of coke. 'I could've just easily opened the baggie and dumped it down the toilet, but I didn't. I knew I was gonna finish that bag the moment I got it, but I kept playing this game with myself.' The father-of-two became sober in 2017 and celebrated his first year of sobriety with a touching post in 2018. At the time, he wrote: 'I first tried to get sober over 5 years ago, when the weight of my obsession with booze and drugs became too heavy for me to handle. 'Turns out this sh*t is hard. After some fits and starts, I've managed to put together one year of sobriety. I'm as proud of it as anything in my life. 'If you're struggling, know there's help. Don't be ashamed. We can do this.'

Lou, a beauty and fashion content creator, isn't the only wealthy outsider to marry into the O'Neil family. Aussie Home Loans heiress Deborah Symond O'Neil tied-the-knot to eldest son Ned in 2018 in a lavish ceremony in the Whitsundays.
