Don't miss out on Sydney's newest pop-up: The Hot Cinni Hotel
One of Australia's favourite brands, Donut King has teamed-up with Sydney's Ovolo Hotels to launch a limited-time takeover of two suites dubbed 'hot cinni hotel' in celebration of National Donut Day on June 6.
Stepping through the pink door to the cinni suite I was met with the mouth watering aroma of cinnamon and transfixed by the decorum, giving a whole new meaning to 'sweet dreams'.
The donut-inspired suite will satisfy just about any sweet tooth thanks to a number of perks on offer, including unlimited cinnamon donuts on-call, a spa kit, in-room couples massage, and a $150 food and beverage credit.
Hungry for more? No worries! In addition to the unlimited free hot cinnamon donuts on call guests will be treated to specialty-cocktails 'Cinnitini' created by Ovolo Sydney's Mixologist.
The generous-sized room that looked out to iconic Woolloomooloo Finger Wharf and was adorned with soft pink hues, plush bedding with the mood set with donut lamps.

And it doesn't stop there, the unexpected duo, Donut King and Ovolo Hotels have also extended the hot cinnamon donut craze to other areas of the hotel for every guest to join in on the celebrations of the hot cinni donut over National Donut Day and all weekend long:
The lobby area will be transformed with accents of pink and cinnamon lighting that pay homage to the iconic cinni donut but also to the distinctiveness of Ovolo Hotel's quirky and friendly hospitality.
'At Donut King, we are famously known as the home of the hot cinnamon donut because when it comes to our cinnamon donuts, we have the best, no question,' said Raquel Hine, Marketing Manager at Donut King.
Ovolo Hotels is equally as excited about the partnership.
'We all have memories of family time spent with a Donut King signature cinnamon donut, and millions of Aussies have grown up sharing the experience which is why we set out to hero our number one product in all its glory every year on a huge industry day.

I live in Australia and believe this place has the best standard of living in the country: 'The most perfect weather you can get'
Australians have named what they believe to be the places with the 'very best' standard of living in the country - and some of them may surprise you. While Sydney and Melbourne may offer more career opportunities and plentiful dining options, many Aussies are opting out of crowded commutes, soaring rent and a 'lack of community' in favour of areas further afield. From the whale-watching capital of the world to a Tasmanian city, these are the spots some claim to offer the best standard of living for those who value decent home and rental prices, great weather, culture and 'overall good vibes'. Hervey Bay, Queensland Population: 65,000 (2024) Known as the world's whale-watching capital, Hervey Bay sits on the Fraser Coast, just 3.5 hours north of Brisbane. Locals say its unspoilt coastline, peaceful charm and laid-back pace make it the perfect place to raise a family or enjoy a slower lifestyle. Residents rave about the area's kid-friendly beaches, short commutes ('it takes 15 minutes to cross town'), and property prices that are still lower than most metro areas - though they're steadily rising. Urangan, a sought-after suburb, was given a special mention for its proximity to the boat club, fishing spots and the historic pier. The region is also seeing steady development, including new retail precincts and a proposed Sheraton hotel. But those who move there say you have to 'embrace the calm'. 'This isn't where you go out. This is where you go 'out',' one resident wrote online, explaining that the lack of nightlife is replaced with dinners at home, outdoor adventures, and a closer connection to family and friends. 'Apparently Hervey Bay has the most perfect weather in Australia,' another ex-local wrote. 'Just the right summer temps, just the right winter temps and a good amount of annual rainfall. 'I have no source for that but I really have read that a couple of times and I can agree after living there for three years. I understand it's got the usual drug/crime problems now but really which towns don't have those problems these days.' Hobart, Tasmania Population: 56,000 (2025) According to locals, Hobart offers world-class scenery with the conveniences of a capital city and is great for those who love nature, crisp winters and a slower pace. Just minutes from its charming centre there are national parks, picturesque villages and views over the Derwent River that are 'absolutely world-class'. Hobart has an arty, nature-loving, slightly old-school English vibe, with friendly pubs, good food and a creative community. But there's a catch - jobs can be scarce, so it's ideal for those who can work remotely or already have a secure income. 'Tasmania is one of the most liveable places on earth if you make a good wage. I'd move there in a heartbeat,' one Reddit user wrote. 'It has fantastic access to nature, good food, amazing produce, wineries, cheaper rent, and is genuinely a great community,' another added. 'My partner and I moved here knowing no one and have both ended up in good jobs with a great lot of friends.' Capertee Valley, NSW Population: Around 130 (2021) A few hours from Sydney lies Australia's second-largest canyon - a vast, breathtaking landscape almost completely encircled by national parks. The Capertee Valley offers sandstone cliffs, abundant wildlife, and blocks of land so large (often over 50 acres) that neighbours are few and far between. Locals say it's an outdoor lover's paradise, with hiking, bird-watching, and complete seclusion. 'Capertee Valley ranks high for me. Incredible landscape and lifestyle a few hours from Sydney,' one said. The impressive Pantoneys Crown monolith is a 'must-climb', offering panoramic views of the dramatic escarpment. And while it feels remote, the valley is still within reach Mudgee, Bathurst and Lithgow - making it a sweet spot for those who want both peace and access to city centres. 'Other areas nearby [I'd recommend] are along the Turon River, and a beautiful valley system that runs east of Lake Wyndamere from Hayes Gap through Lue, Rylstone/Kandos and Dabee into the Capertee Valley at Mt Morgan,' another wrote. 'Wolgan Valley is also good, but has been cut off for a number of years by landslides. All these areas are well served with nearby major centres but Capertee Valley is at the top of my list.' What other places have the 'best standard of living' in Australia? Reddit users named a number of other places they'd either lived or desire to live due to 'high quality living': 1. Canberra, ACT Why? 'Very high salaries but has cheapish rent compared to other Australian cities and certainly compared to Sydney,' one wrote. 'It's definitely a specific vibe here, and for those that are into it Canberra is wonderful,' another said. 2. Townsville, QLD Why? 'I've lived in several capitals but living in Townsville was easy and unstressful,' one said. 'Second Townsville. Lovely city,' another wrote. 3. Perth, WA Why? 'Perth [has the] highest wages in the country and is still cheaper than most of the east coast. We have fantastic beaches that are never over crowded too,' one wrote. 'Perth is pretty great... closer to Asia, still relatively affordable, some of the best beaches in the world, perfect weather a majority of the year except for a few weeks,' another added. 4. Darwin, NT Why? 'Gonna shock some people when I say this. Darwin. I could afford to live alone, a block from the ocean, five minutes walk to a 50-metre public swimming pool with a reliable 17-minute driving commute to work,' one wrote. 'The only things that s*ck about Darwin are the expensive and long flights home, the weather and the real lack of good shopping. But if you can work around those you can have a great standard of living for a lot less than what you'd get in the big five.'

Revealed: Global superstar set to perform at MCG for AFL Grand Final
The entertainment for the AFL Grand Final has been revealed, with a superstar name set to headline at the MCG later this year. Rapper Snoop Dogg has been confirmed as the headline pre-match entertainment act for 2025. The American rap icon will perform to a crowd of 100,000 at the MCG on September 27. 'It's an absolute honour to be hitting the stage at the AFL grand final — it's one of the biggest events on the Aussie calendar,' he said. 'Can't wait to bring the energy and celebrate with the fans.' Snoop performed at the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show and also headlined the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony. AFL chief executive Andrew Dillon said: 'The AFL grand final is the biggest event on the Australian sporting calendar — and this year, it just got a whole lot bigger.' 'Snoop Dogg is a pioneer, a performer, and a true entertainer. He's played to packed stadiums around the world — but we think 100,000 fans at the MCG might just be his most iconic crowd yet. 'We want grand final day to be an unforgettable celebration of footy — and beyond the four quarters of the match, a celebration of culture, energy, and entertainment. Snoop fits that brief better than anyone.' The AFL has welcomed some huge names to the MCG for the pre-match entertainment over the years. Katy Perry took to the stage in 2024, performing hits including Roar, Teenage Dream and California Gurls. In 2022, Robbie Williams took to the stage in a bright pink blazer that remains in the MCG's museum, while in 2020, Aussie band, the DMA's performed their version of Cher's 'Believe'.

American expat's brutal claim about the Aussie dating scene - and the 'awful' things women have told him about the men Down Under
An unattached American man has revealed some harsh truths about the Australian dating scene for 20-somethings - and it's ignited an online firestorm. Drew Mork, 26, from San Francisco, has been travelling around Australia since the start of 2025 and is currently based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. The personal trainer recently sparked controversy after posting a series of TikTok videos in which he shared his observations about Aussie dating culture. Daily Mail spoke to Drew, who said he may have unintentionally sparked an 'unspoken war' between the sexes down under. Drew posted three monologue-style videos where he reflected on various aspects of Australian dating culture and his own experiences thus far. His first observation was that 'Aussie girls are not looking to settle down'. 'They want to party, and they are direct and shameless,' Drew said. He added that he thought Aussie women were gorgeous 'smoke shows' - but simultaneously felt that they 'kind of think like men' in their flirtatious interactions. The personal trainer, who has been travelling around Australia since the start of the year, told Daily Mail he had observed a 'hook-up culture' in the local dating scene Drew also recounted the awful things that Australian women had told him about what it was like dating Aussie guys. 'I haven't met a single Aussie girl that has said anything positive about Australian men,' he said. 'They say that Aussie guys are "feminine", "passive" and "don't want to pay for things"… I can't speak to that. I'm just repeating what they've said.' His opinion has attracted hundreds of comments from disgruntled Aussie men who had equally unflattering things to say about their experience with dating Australian women. Accordingly, Drew made a video sharing some of the feedback he'd had from the Aussie men. Daily Mail asked Drew to elaborate further on his observations, with his biggest takeaway being that he believed there was a 'very big hook-up culture' among Aussies in their 20s. Drew said he came to this realisation after going on a few dates that were 'interesting'. 'I just felt like, you know, a lot of the girls here are "fast". They're fast girls - that's what we call it in America,' he said. 'One time, a girl just came up to me here and we started chatting. In the first 20 seconds of our conversation, she's like, "Are you keen for some company tonight at your place?". 'It's just not for me. I enjoy authentic connection. 'And I'm not putting them down. I think Australian women are absolutely stunning. But it's just not how I operate at all.' However, Drew mused that there could be an explanation for this forward behaviour to be found in the unflattering assessment of 'passive' Australian men, given to him by Australian women. Drew speculated that this explained why Aussie women he'd seen acted 'like men on a night out', being unafraid to 'approach you' and make their wants and desires known. But having made friends with a number of Australian men since arriving, Drew said he hadn't noticed these tendencies among his new mates. That being said, he did concede that he 'never really' saw any of his Australian male friends 'approach any girls'. When Daily Mail spoke to Drew about his Australian dating scene observation TikTok videos, he said he may have unintentionally sparked an 'unspoken war' down under between the sexes The backlash Drew's TikTok video attracted from men towards women surprised him. 'Many of the guys were basically saying that Australian women are not wife material,' Drew said. 'I'll choose my words carefully here, but they were just basically saying that Aussie girls are loud-mouthed, masculine, like to cuss a lot, drink a lot, and that they get around. 'It was just a lot of, like, hateful comments. I wasn't expecting that from the Aussie guys.' Although Drew admits his earlier reflections on Aussie women being 'fast' were contradictory, he disagreed with the men's comments. In fact, Drew said despite his disappointing dating experiences thus far, he remained hopeful of finding a partner in Australia. 'I would love an Aussie wife,' Drew said. 'I think Australian women are absolutely stunning.
