It's fizzy, fruity and packed with a caffeine punch. Australia, meet your new energy drink obsession.
The viral-favourite energy drink that's got everyone in the US buzzing, literally, is finally available at Woolworths online nationwide.
CELSIUS Energy Drink, the brand that's been quietly powering through workouts, dancefloors and 3 pm slumps across America, has officially touched down, down under.
And yes, that drink Dakota Johnson accidentally 'overdosed' on while filming 'Loser Baby' is front and centre in the range.
In a now-viral interview with Dakota, hilariously admitted to Variety, she had no idea CELSIUS is an energy drink, saying, 'I was like, I'm so inspired. I'm awake all night long. I thought it was vitamins.'
Stars, they're just like us, only with slightly more accidental caffeine jitters.
Whether you're smashing fitness goals or just trying to stay awake during meetings, CELSIUS is designed to fuel you through it.
It's sugar-free, low in calories, made with natural flavours and green tea extract, and completely aspartame-free.
Translation? A fizzy little can of pep that won't leave you with the crash (or guilt) of a traditional energy drink.
The newest flavour to hit Woolies' shelves is Sunset Vibe, and it tastes exactly how it sounds: a tropical escape.
It's mango meets passionfruit in a sparkling burst of sunshine that somehow makes you want to do burpees. It joins a seriously stacked lineup of flavours including Kiwi Strawberry, Watermelon Lemonade, Green Apple Cherry and Cosmic Vibe.
Even better, the entire range is now online at Woolworths and rolling out in-store across the country from 11 June. At just $3.60 a can (usually $4), now's your chance to stock up before everyone else realises what's going on.
And if you're still energy-curious, there's a wave of buzzy options making moves on the Aussie market.
Gatorade's Fast Twitch is an athlete-approved hit, Alani Nu is backed by celebs like Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton, and V Riise is the go-to for a steadier, longer-lasting lift.
Energy drinks aren't niche anymore, they're a full-on lifestyle.
So whether you're hitting the gym, your deadline, or just trying to stay vertical during an afternoon meeting, CELSIUS might just be your new sidekick.

Lies, damn lies: The admissions and denials of an accused killer cook

The cancer Whether Patterson had cancer and had shared this with others was discussed repeatedly. Sole lunch survivor Ian Wilkinson recalled in his evidence that it was at the lethal lunch that Patterson broke the news of her cancer, telling her guests she was anxious about telling her children. Patterson's estranged husband, Simon Patterson, told the jury that while his family was sick in hospital after the lunch, his father relayed to him that Patterson had said she was going to have chemotherapy and surgery. Don told him Patterson said she had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and needed help breaking the news to her two children. But Patterson told the jury on Thursday she had never been diagnosed with any type of cancer and went on to quibble with the suggestion she'd told her guests she had been. During cross-examination, this was referred to as the accused woman's 'so-called cancer diagnosis'. Instead, Patterson suggested she had researched the symptoms online for things, including stage-four cancer, because she was worried she may be very unwell. The 50-year-old denied doing so as part of any type of ploy to convince her family she was seriously ill. 'I suggest you never thought you'd have to account for this lie about having cancer because you thought the lunch guests would die,' Rogers said. 'This would allow you to tell a more convincing lie about having cancer?' Patterson replied: 'I mean, theoretically that's true, but that's not what I did. I was concerned that I had ovarian cancer, I was concerned that I had something wrong with my brain.' Patterson agreed she didn't have any medical appointments relating to cancer in the lead-up to the lunch, despite telling Gail she was undergoing medical investigations. She did, however, claim to have had a pre-surgery appointment booked for a gastric bypass to lose weight. Rogers asked Patterson if she purposely carried on the fiction that she had a serious illness. Patterson agreed. The foraging In her recorded interview with police on the afternoon of August 5, 2023, Patterson said she'd never foraged for mushrooms in the wild. 'Is that something you've done in the past?' Detective Leading Senior Constable Stephen Eppingstall asked Patterson at the Wonthaggi police station. 'Foraged for mushrooms?' 'Never,' Patterson replied. While on the stand this week, Patterson's story changed. She told the jury she developed a love for mushrooms and an interest in foraging for them from early 2020 during the COVID lockdowns. She told the jury she started off by picking field mushrooms. Then she began picking others, such as horse mushrooms and slippery jacks, as she grew more confident in identifying the species she picked in her yard, the nearby botanical gardens and a rail trail between Korumburra, Loch and Leongatha. She said that she initially believed the mushrooms she'd used in the fatal beef Wellington were prepackaged button mushrooms from Woolworths and dried mushrooms she'd bought from an Asian grocer in Melbourne. As the investigation went on, though, she said she began to think that maybe dried foraged mushrooms had also made their way into the meal. She told the jury she now accepted that death cap mushrooms had been inside the pastry-encased parcels. While under cross-examination, Patterson agreed it was on August 1, 2023, that Simon first asked if she'd used the dehydrator to kill his parents. She said it was then that she began to wonder whether other mushrooms may have made their way into the meal. 'You agree you told police in your record of interview that you loved Don and Gail?' Rogers asked. 'Yes,' Patterson replied. Rogers: 'Surely, if you had loved them, you would've immediately notified medical authorities about there being a possibility that the foraged mushrooms had gone into the container with the Chinese mushrooms?' 'Well I didn't. I did not tell anybody,' Patterson responded. 'They did love me and I did love them. I do love them.' The dehydrator Loading A tax invoice displayed on screens across the courtroom showed the purchase of a black Sunbeam dehydrator, costing more than $200, and paid for under Erin Patterson's name, address and phone number. Patterson agreed she bought it and used it to dehydrate mushrooms before dumping it at the local tip the day after she was released from hospital because, she claimed, she panicked and feared her children could be taken away from her. In her police interview, the court heard, she denied ever owning such an appliance, or ever having one in her house. Loading 'Those are lies?' her defence lawyer asked. 'Yes,' Patterson replied. 'I had disposed of it a few days earlier in the context of thinking that maybe mushrooms I foraged or the meal I prepared was responsible for making people sick, and then on the Saturday, Detective Eppingstall told me that Gail and Heather had passed away.' She denied knowingly picking or dehydrating death cap mushrooms to cook and serve to her lunch guests. The prosecution case When asked by Mandy about the prosecution case against her, Patterson denied lying about using Asian grocer mushrooms or pretending to be sick after the lunch. 'I am going to ask you a series of questions now, formal questions, about what the prosecution says is the case against you,' Mandy said. 'Did you lie to people when you said that you'd only cooked one batch of mushrooms for the beef Wellingtons?' Patterson: 'No, I didn't lie.' Mandy: 'Were each of the beef Wellingtons on each of the five plates that you served up the same?' Patterson: 'Yes.' Mandy: 'Did you lie about purchasing dried mushrooms from an Asian grocer in the Oakleigh area in April of 2023?' Patterson: 'No.' Mandy: 'Did you lie about using those mushrooms from the Asian grocer in the beef Wellingtons?' Patterson: 'No, I didn't.' Mandy: 'Did you pretend to be sick following the lunch?' Patterson: 'No, I didn't.' Mandy: 'Did you intentionally include death cap mushrooms in the beef Wellingtons you prepared on 29 July?' Patterson: 'No.' 'Eye-roll emojis' Patterson was questioned about some messages to her online friends in which she appeared to mock her in-laws' faith with 'eye-roll emojis'. Patterson denied that the messages were mocking – she was frustrated that the family's only solution to her and Simon's issues were to pray, she said. Rogers read out a message Patterson sent to friends on December 6, 2022, about being told by Don that he could not adjudicate in a matter between Erin and Simon because Simon would not share his side of the story. The message, shown to the jury, concluded with two eye-rolling emojis and the sentence: 'This family, I swear to f---ing God.' Patterson told the court: 'The eye-roll emojis was in regard to that being the only solution.' Rogers showed Patterson another message, in which she wrote that Don had called her the previous night to say there could be a solution to her problem if she and Simon got together and prayed, followed by two emojis. Rogers suggested the emojis were also eye-rolling emojis. 'There's a better eye-rolling emoji than this,' Patterson said. Rogers said Patterson was mocking her in-laws' advice, and part of the mockery related to the religious component. 'I wasn't mocking, I was frustrated,' Patterson said.

Dakota Johnson's hilarious solution to near wardrobe malfunction

Dakota Johnson nearly had a wardrobe malfunction during a late-night TV appearance. On Monday's episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Johnson — who was wearing a black mini-dress with a plunging neckline — instantly regretted her decision. 'Oh God,' said Johnson, who was promoting her new film The Materialists. 'This is the wrong outfit.' 'No, no. I think it's perfect, you look great,' Fallon said. 'Just don't move.' 'My eyes are up here,' she joked. A dazed and confused Fallon playfully looked up to the ceiling and said, 'I don't know what to do. I'm confused.' After the TV host redirected the conversation, Johnson was still concerned about the possible malfunction. 'Tell me if there's a problem,' she said. 'Right now, there's not a problem,' Fallon quipped. 'There's almost a problem, but not quite — it's just … everything is going according to plan.' 'Does anyone have like, a blanket I could wear?' Johnson asked. Fallon handed Johnson a tissue that she placed in her cleavage. 'That's perfect. No one will even know the difference!' said Fallon. 'You look great!' Watch the exchange in the video player above. One year ago, the actress suffered another wardrobe malfunction while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live. 'Dakota, your dress just came unhooked,' Kimmel said to Johnson, who tried to maintain her poise as she clutched the detached metal strap of her black dress. 'Should I get some scotch tape?' Kimmel inquired. 'My dress just – it just fell off,' Johnson said, astounded, but with a smile on her face. 'It seems to be hanging in all right?' Kimmel countered. 'Well, I'll just hold it,' Johnson said, continuing the conversation in stride. 'Just hold the important part,' Kimmel joked. Johnson cheekily placed her hands on her chest, much to the amusement of the audience. 'The movie is really good,' she noted.
