Former porn star shares advice for Lily Phillips
LILY Phillips is a name many of us now know, thanks to her controversial plan to bed 1,000 men in 24 hours.
The OnlyFans star is hoping to break the world record with the endeavour - a record currently held by adult film star Lisa Sparks, with 919 men.
But adult film star Jasmin St. Claire - who's most famous for having sex with 300 men in 24 hours for X-rated 1996 film The World's Biggest G**g Bang II - has issued a word of warning to the 23-year-old to ensure she's regularly tested for sexually transmitted diseases.
"I get a lot of OnlyFans girls on my podcast ... and the one common story is all of the different STD outbreaks in the business," Jasmin
"Like, I've never heard of half this stuff in my life. I'm like, holy s**t. Can a doctor from India cure that?
"Like, seriously, because these are some weird things."
'We've got another three episodes that you're gonna love! The themes we touch on feel incredibly timely.
'As always, a sincere thank you to those families who agree to open their doors. Strap in!'
Meanwhile, Emile Nawagamuwa, one of the show's commissioners, explained: 'The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over demonstrates the remarkable strength of Stacey's appeal as a documentarian and this simple, compelling concept.
'It has been three years since Stacey last slept over in the homes of UK families, and more people than ever have proudly chosen to break the rules and live life according to their own unique values.
This series is going to be a cracker
Jes Wilkins, Firecracker Films
'This series promises to be more eye-opening and enlightening than ever.'
At the same time, Jes Wilkins from Firecracker Films added: 'To be making a sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over in the current commissioning climate is one of the proudest achievements of my career and it's a testament to a wonderful creative and commercial partnership with Stacey and everyone at UKTV.
'This series is going to be a cracker.'
The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over will air on U and U&W later this year.
All episodes of previous series are available to stream for free on U.

Esther McCarthy: Signing up to the We Do Not Care Club
I would not have thought I'd have much in common with a black lady from Florida, but one of the many wonders of the internet is you can find communion in the most unlikely of places. Melani Sanders is a 45-year-old wife and mother and the founding member of the 'We Do Not Care' Club (we know this because she has it written on a bit of paper and paper-clipped onto her t-shirt). She posts videos aimed at women of a certain age who are sick to the back teeth of... well, everything. I remember seeing the first video she posted back in May. I was like, 'Yes! This gal gets it'. In a few short months, Melani's amassed 1.6m followers on Instagram, 1.3m on TikTok and 475,000 on Facebook, along with sponsorship deals, merch, and a global fan club. Turns out us mad bitches with startling mood swings and malfunctioning body thermostats just can't get enough of her. Melani sits there in her car, or kitchen, or sideways on her bed, with a travel pillow around her neck, multiple pairs of glasses perched on her person, ready to call to order another meeting of the WDNCC. She sometimes has a sleep mask slung around her neck, and often wears a robe and a satin sleep turban. (If you don't like it, she does not care.) She then uncaps her yellow highlighter, with a hint of menace, it has to be said, and proceeds to name out all the things we do not care about, as shared by her followers in the comments. All her videos start with her explaining the very simple premise. 'I started the club for all the women going through perimenopause and menopause. We are putting the world on notice that we simply do not care much anymore.' She calls out the first item, declares that we do not care, then scratches it off her list. She has this earnest look about her, like she is on serious business. And she is. One of the things on her list in a video I watched recently is: 'We do not care if the tag says hand wash. It's getting washed how it's getting washed. It's in the Lord's hands now.' Another one: 'We do not care if something is 'dishwasher safe'. It is now.' One more for the laugh: 'We do not care if you want us to go somewhere last minute. Once the bra comes off, forget about it.' Her slow, deadpan delivery is just brilliant. And to be honest, that club makes me feel a little better. Because, although I'm at the batshit-crazy (medical term) stage of my hormonal journey, I haven't quite mastered the fully not caring part yet. The other day, I started crying over the position of a fruit bowl on the table, and made the cat run into the sliding glass door in confusion. Then I had to add 'worry about cat concussion' to my checklist. I like knowing the WDNCC is there for consolation. There was one recently about not caring if a partner has had a long day. 'So did we,' drawls Melani. 'Our day included brain fog, night sweats, insomnia, frozen shoulder, and rage.' One thing that's stoking my rage at the moment is the pair of underpants strewn on the stairs. (Sidenote: Why is it called a pair?) I'm 67% sure it's clean and simply fell out of the laundry basket on the way up the stairs. Two things I'm 100% sure about, though. 1. It's not mine. 2. I am not, I repeat, NOT going to sniff it to confirm said cleanliness. It's a gamble though. It's been there a while now, no one else seems to notice it. Sometimes, on my dark days, I wonder… is it an illusion? Am I the only one who sees it — a figment of my fragile, foggy brain? Is it a metaphorical manifestation representing the mess in my mind? But then I remember that empty shopping bag on the kitchen floor. I decided I'd use it as a barometer of how much notice my fellow house inhabitants take of random things left around the house. And wasn't I was stepping over that bag every time I went to the fridge? It would have gone on until infinity so on day four, I folded it up with a martyred sigh, put it back in the boot of the car, and went and had a cry by the fruit bowl for myself. The ridiculous thing is, I'm a messy person anyway, I love a bit of creative shite thrown around the place. My office could be used for carbon dating. The kids' rooms are way tidier than mine. It's just things left in communal areas start my left eye twitching. But I'm going to work on it. The wonderful thing about Sanders' club is that it's fast becoming a movement. She's giving voice to all the women out there who can identify with these changes and challenges and who raise their hands and their voices up and say, OMG, me too! There's a real power — and comfort — in that. Sanders posted recently about the effect her club is having. 'You are not crazy. You are not alone,' she writes. 'You are surrounded by a tribe that sees you, loves you, and refuses to whisper about what we were taught to hide. We're just getting started.' On an unrelated matter, does anyone know the best way to glue a fruit bowl back together and the name of a good feline vet?

Mrs Brown's Boys viewers convinced Agnes will DIE after slipping into a coma with just one episode of series left
MRS Brown's Boys viewers are convinced Agnes will die - as she slipped into a coma. Show creator Brendan O'Carroll portrays the loud-mouth matriarch Agnes. 4 Mrs Brown's Boys fans are convinced protagonist Agnes Brown will die Credit: BBC 4 The character fell into a coma in the latest episode Credit: BBC Advertisement 4 Agnes' family and friends gathered at her bedside Credit: BBC However, the sitcom has been a magnet for criticism since its debut in 2011. In the latest episode, viewers watched on as Agnes fell into a coma and was taken to hospital. The ending featured her doctors revealing they'll have to turn off the life support machines. Advertisement Writing online, fans have been left certain of Agnes' demise - albeit very divided in their reactions. One said on X: "Is she dead? Is this the last ever series?? Fingers crossed!!!" Another penned: "RIP Mrs Brown - thanks for the laughs." A third added: "What a strange ending! Has she passed away?" Advertisement While a fourth remarked: "She's DEAD. Finally we're free from the curse of the worst show on tv." Viewers who have already watched the whole series on iPlayer will know this is not the end for Agnes. One further episode in the current series is still to be aired on BBC One. Mrs Brown's Boys' viewers demand BBC series is cancelled as they slam New Year's special Elsewhere, the long-running show's future is yet to be officially confirmed. The sitcom is currently on series five, with no confirmation yet about further instalments. Advertisement Mrs Brown's Boys fifth 'mini-series' was previously announced in January - and those episodes are airing now. Creator-star Brendan told the Daily Star at the time: "We are going to film another series in April and May [2025]. Best BBC comedies A BBC boss called on the industry to "save our sitcoms", but the corporation has a history of fantastic shows. We look back at some of the best to ever grace the screen. Fawlty Towers (1975-1979) - Only two series were made of the beloved institution. However, the cultural impact of the series starring John Cleese and Connie Booth spans decades. It follows rude and intolerant Basil Fawlty (Cleese) as he attempts to improve the reputation of his hotel. Only Fools and Horses (1981-2003) - The show was crowned by some as the best British sitcom of all time by a TV poll in 2004. Seven series were broadcast on BBC until 1991 with additional sporadic Christmas specials airing until 2003. Sir David Jason starred as ambitious market trader Derek "Del Boy" Trotter whilst Nicholas Lyndhurst played his younger half-brother Rodney. Set in working-class Peckham in south-east London, it follows the highs and lows of the lives of the Trotters', in particular their brazen attempts to get rich. Blackadder (1983 - 1989) - Four series were made of the iconic show, created by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson. Each series spans a different historical period as anti-hero Edmund Blackadder (Atkinson) tries to better himself in each society. Accompanied by his dogsbody Baldrick (Tony Robinson), trouble always ensues. A TV poll in 2004 found that Blackadder was voted the second-best British sitcom of all time Absolutely Fabulous (1992 - 2012) - Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley star as failing PR guru Edina 'Eddie' Monsoon and alcoholic fashionista Patsy Stone. The pair embark on heavy-drinking sessions and abuse drugs in a desperate attempt to stay 'hip'. Eddie constantly chases bizarre fads and fails to lose weight whilst her disappointed and neglected daughter Saffy (Julia Sawalha) looks on. Little Britain (2003 - 2006) - The premise is simple. A sketch show which features different British people from all walks of life that are engaged in all sorts of comical scenarios. Starring Matt Lucas and David Walliams, the pair created iconic pop culture characters. Viewers loved obnoxious council estate teenager Vicky Pollard, morbidly obese scrounger Bubbles Devere, slimming coach Marjorie Dawes, despondent office worker Carol Beer, disgraced politician Sir Norman Fry, of course the iconic Lou and Andy! The Catherine Tate Show (2004-2015) - A sketch show starring the likes of Catherine Tate. She made iconic characters such as rowdy schoolgirl Lauren Cooper with her line 'Am I bovvered?'. Other characters featured Bernie the nurse, the aga saga woman, complaining couple Janice and Ray, and of course her infamous 'Nan', Joannie Taylor. The last character herself spawned multiple specials and even a movie. Gavin and Stacey (2007 - Present) The series tells the story of Gavin (Matthew Horne) and Stacey (Joanna Page). The pair embarked on an online and telephone romance for six months. But when they finally decide to be together properly, their friends and family get in the way. Ruth Jones and James Corden created the beloved show, which has been going for over a decade. The 2019 Christmas special was the most-watched comedy in 17 years and the most-viewed non-sporting event in a decade. "It's lovely to be asked to do another one." The BBC's head of comedy, Jon Petrie, added: "Brendan has created an iconic comedy character in Agnes Brown. "Mrs. Brown's Boys is a BAFTA-winning comedy show and one of the BBC's most-watched comedies ever… I'm proud to have it in the BBC Comedy stable."

There may be more to the pics than just some sexy poses SUMMER BREAK Tracee Ellis Ross, 52, rocks tiny bikini on pool day and leaves fans gushing over her 'flawless' figure TRACEE Ellis Ross looked stunning in a black bikini on a recent sunny day poolside. The actress, 52, rocked an oversized black sunglasses and scalloped-edge, tiny bikini as she teased "two things... coming out real soon." 5 Tracee Ellis Ross sizzled in a recent photo shoot Credit: Instagram / traceeellisross 5 The star posed in a black bikini by a swimming pool Credit: Instagram / traceeellisross 5 She teased 'two things coming out' in the photos Credit: Instagram / traceeellisross 5 Tracee is Golden Globe winning actress and owns a hair care line Credit: Getty - Contributor Tracee, who has had a long-career as a model and actress, posed seductively in some shots standing by an infinity pool, and in other photos gave a goofy smile to camera. The Black-ish star shared the photos to Instagram with the caption: "2 things in these photos are coming out reallll soon…." Tracee, who already has her own hair care line called Pattern Beauty, did not reveal what she was referring to, but her fans tried to guess in the comments. "Shades and suit!! We're SEATED," wrote one person. Another added: "Bathing suit and shades." And a third commented: "Is it the sunnies? They're so cute!" Tracee, who is the daughter of music sensation Diana Ross and Robert Ellis Silberstein, recently opened up on why she prefers to date younger men. She shared her thoughts with former First Lady Michelle Obama on the latter's podcast, IMO. "Often I date younger men," before revealing the real reason why," she said on the episode which aired in April. Tracee spoke about knowing herself and being in charge of her life, touching on why men her age aren't a good match for her most of the time. Tracee Ellis Ross reveals real reason she dates younger men - and it's not just because 'they're hot' Speaking about dating younger men, she said: "It's not just age. It's like life experience is sort of a difference. "But I had to ask myself the question, why?" Tracee continued: "A lot of men my age are steeped in a toxic masculinity and have been raised in a culture where there is a particular way that a relationship looks. "And anything that starts to smell of that for me... I did enough of it where I was controlled and felt like I was a possession or whatever those things were, or prize. "And I just, I have no interest in it and I will not do it again."
