Gemma Collins beats Katie Price for ultimate night out girlie
Speaking about her own experiences with nights out and reflecting on the good times, Collins, said: 'Listen, the best part of the night is the build-up. It's the getting glam, the playlist, the group chat chaos, and those deep, hilarious, 'why did we even start talking about this?' moments on the journey to the venue. SlayStation is all about bringing the glam – a bit of hair, a bit of makeup, and a whole lot of fabulous. If you're stepping out, step out ready to slay.'
The new research of 2,000 adults by leading train ticketing app Trainline reveals how vital glam is to a Big Night Out, adding to the fun and drama of the night as you get ready with friends, put the tunes on, and enjoy a drink or two, with three-quarters of 18-34 year olds (75%), saying the night out begins well before they get to their destination.

The new data also showed that one in five (20%) of 18–24-year-olds have revealed that they are prepared to travel a staggering 50 miles to get to their main event. The journey itself is no longer just a way to get from A to B – it's a vital part of the night, with 80% of Brits saying it's one of the most important elements, and over half (60%) using it for glam time on the go.
With three-quarters saying getting ready is one of the most important parts of the night, one in five Brits now plan their outfit and 'look' up to one month in advance of their night out – perfecting it right until the last moment, with 70% of Brits using time on the train to perfect their look.

Sarah Helppi, UK Country Director at Trainline, said: 'At Trainline, we know that great nights out start long before you reach the venue – they start with the journey.
"Whether it's touching up your look up on the train, sharing music playlists, or those conversations that only happen en route, travel has become an essential part of the night. That's why we launched SlayStation – to celebrate the journey and make it as iconic as the destination.'

Closely followed by just under half (49%) of the Gen X generation willing to spend £100 on a night out, Gen Z then buck the trend with just two in five (40%) willing to spend £100 during the night out itself.

Maura Higgins' defiant stance as she's set for awkward Danny Jones run-in after kiss
Love Islander Maura Higgins and her I'm A Celebrity campmate Danny Jones stunned fans when they were spotted sharing a drunken kiss at a BRIT Awards afterparty earlier this year I'm A Celebrity campmates Maura Higgins and Danny Jones could be facing an awkward encounter at this year's National Television Awards, following their drunken kiss at a BRITs afterparty. Danny, 39, won the most recent series of ITV 's I'm A Celeb, and so will be showing up at the event - as will Maura. The video, which saw the two share a kiss, resulted in a dicey time for Danny's marriage to influencer and wife of 11 years, Georgia Horsley, 38. He has spent the year quietly attempting to repair their relationship after Georgia left the family home for a period of time to cool off. Danny and Georgia share their six-year-old son Cooper, and seem to have patched things up after what could have been a marriage-ending indiscretion on Danny's part. It comes after ITV makes major decision on I'm A Celebrity's future after talks with officials. While Danny attempted to win Georgia's trust back, Maura herself kept a low profile for a short time. Their National Television Awards appearance will be a test for Georgia, although a source points out they all knew their "paths were bound to cross at some point. Speaking to The Sun, they said: 'Danny is expected to attend the NTAs on September 10, as have all previous reigning jungle winners — and Maura is also going." The source added: 'There will have to be some clever choreography to ensure they don't end up next to each other when walking the red carpet, but they could both end up on stage if I'm A Celebrity wins. Maura won't be answering any questions about the kiss. She's put the incident behind her and feels she has nothing to be ashamed of." McFly star Danny has put on a united front with Georgia after the couple's testing year. The pair were all smiles as they attended the first of seven Wembley gigs for the Oasis reunion tour last month. Mum-of-one Georgia, 38, shared a black and white photo posted on her husband's Instagram Story. It showed her beaming as they made their way from Wembley Stadium. Danny was looking over at her as they shared a laugh between them, showing they've put their rocky patch behind them and have moved on. They were joined by Danny's mum, Kathy, who walked in between the pair in the candid snap. It's been a tough year for the couple, with the news of Danny's drunken BRITS kiss with Love Islander Maura sending shockwaves earlier this year. But lucky for Danny, it appears Georgia was willing to give their marriage another try, although the pair lay low on social media since the video surfaced in March this year. Meanwhile, Maura has been keeping herself busy with work, as well as buying her new house. The 34-year-old former Love Island contestant has earned an estimated £3.2 million in the years since she found fame on the ITV dating show back in 2019. And she has splashed the cash on a luxury new home - snapping up a five-bedroom property in the south east of England. The semi-detached house boasts an impressive garden and has huge, floor to ceiling windows that allow plenty of natural light to flood in.

Rare 'black alert' issued for Canary Islands as tourists warned to stay away
Two beaches on La Graciosa, in the Canary Islands, have been given a black flag by an environmental group which is blaming mass tourism for causing so much pollution A Spanish holiday hotspot has been given two black flags for pollution by an environmental group which is blaming the amount of tourism. Many Brits are among the millions of tourists that head to the Canary Islands each year and as well as the larger Tenerife or Lanzarote many also visit the La Graciosa. It has become increasingly popular having been viewed as less spoilt but now two of its beaches have been given a black flag for being so dirty. La Graciosa, located two kilometres north of Lanzarote across the Strait of El Río, has had the two beaches listed by Ecologistas en Accion (Ecologists in Action) which gives a list of the dirtiest locations along the Spanish coast each year. It has given black flags to Playa de Caleta de Sebo, which is the most populated area of the island as well as Playa de la Francesa, a little further along the coast. Ecologistas en Acción's annual report has been highlighting environmental mismanagement in Spain since 2005. And it focused on tourism for the environmental problems facing La Graciosa saying that there are only 720 residents and yet it sees 300,000 people visit a year. According to the environmental group, the beach in Caleta de Sebo is in a 'poor state of conservation', with waste from private boats and ferries arriving at the port, beach users and restaurants contributing to pollution. "The increase in the number of boats, waste, and activities pollute the beach," the organisation stated. At Playa de la Francesa they have warned about "boats with tourists that come, generating noise, feeding seagulls and fish, and leaving excrement and toilet paper". It is the second time this beach has been given a black flag as it was also put on the list in 2023 Specifically about the catamaran tours that arrive at the beach, the environment group says they 'hold parties, meals, games, and contests with loud music and leaving waste behind on the sand and in the water.' It comes as locals on the Canary Islands as well as other holiday hotspots in Spain have been complaining and holding protests at what they see as too much tourism. But it seems the threat of protests and a lukewarm reception have not been enough to deter holidaymakers from the Canary Islands. In June 2025, the Islands recorded their highest-ever number of international visitors, according to the latest data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE). The total number of international arrivals rose to 7.84 million in June, an increase of 4% compared to the same period last year. The tourist arrivals also increased spending on the Islands, with international visitors contributing €1.56 billion (£1.35bn) to the local economy in June, nearly 8.5% more than last year.
