Ciara and Simone Ashley bring star power to NFL sidelines
Simone Ashley made a striking entrance into American football culture when she attended her first NFL preseason game in New Jersey. The Bridgerton actress brought her signature style to the stadium. Dressed in a cream white two-piece outfit, she blended casual, sophisticated, and daring fashion with ease. The standout feature was the sheer fabric at the hem of both the shirt and skirt, adding a clever twist to an otherwise understated look. Simone was joined by chart-topping singer Ciara, 2022 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model. Ciara wore a red, white, and blue football jersey emblazoned with her husband Russell Wilson's number, according to Si Lifestyle. The New York Giants clinched a 31-12 win against the New York Jets, making the experience even more memorable for Ashley. The two made more than just a glamorous appearance. Later, they shared a moment of friendship over pasta, echoing classic Lady and the Tramp vibes. This camaraderie is important to Simone Ashley, who has spoken openly about the value she places on her close-knit circle of friends. 'My friends would describe me as clumsy and kind,' she told Harper's Bazaar UK. 'One of my best friends is always like, 'Go sure, you're my Bridget Jones.' I embrace the chaos.' The 30-year-old actress added, 'I love my friends. They are the best things in my life. I always want to be as kind to them as they are to me.' Ciara's inclusion in Simone's close circle excites many fans, who hope the friendship will lead to even more fun moments. One admirer commented, 'Love this duo,' while another joked, 'You're about to meet your husband, Ashley.' With Simone now filming The Devil Wears Prada 2 in New York, it's likely she might appear at more Giants or Jets games soon. The energy, the fashion, and the friendships all promise exciting things ahead. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.

Snacks, chats and rock n' roll! AutoTrader unveils what really drives South Africa
Today sees the launch of AutoTrader data that reiterates South Africa is akin to a movie, based on the snacks, chats, rock n' roll, and even childbirth our customers have experienced in their cars in the past month. Mzansi ranks as one of the highest countries in the world in terms of average time spent in a car. According to a recent News24 article, the average South African spends 16 days commuting to and from work per year. George Mienie, CEO at AutoTrader, says, 'We surveyed 3,500 South Africans to determine new insights into the activities that our customers participate in to keep themselves occupied when they are behind the wheel.' The results were nothing short of fascinating. 48.4 per cent used the time to have a deep, meaningful conversation with themselves. 27 per cent cheated on a loved one with a sneaky snack, compared to the 8 per cent who indulged in a not suitable for work (NSFW) kind of snack, and 34 per cent lived out a popstar fantasy by belting out their favourite tunes. Only four per cent trusted their amateur make-up artistry, on the move, while 47 people or 1.3 per cent of respondents, were forced to give birth en route to a hospital. Mienie says, 'Our cars are our quintessential 'Happy Place'. This insight, and human truth, coupled with the research data, inspired our latest campaign and series of ads. The first ad has attracted over nine million views and 32,000 engagements on social media alone thus far: He adds, 'The second went live this past weekend, prior to the start of our national team's defence of the Rugby Championship. Spoiler: We'll be releasing a social post soon on how to build your own bakkuzzi for the Summer season ahead. Enjoy the ad here: Angelique Lynch, Marketing Director of AutoTrader, concludes, 'Whether you're snacking, pouting to apply your make-up, or rocking out in your car, search for your Happy Place on AutoTrader.

Jamie Oliver Returns to South Africa for Healthy Living
Jamie Oliver has returned to South Africa, this time to grill a roster of local personalities in search of the truth about healthy eating. World-renowned chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver has always been about making good food accessible. After his global restaurant empire faced financial challenges a few years ago, many thought the 'Naked Chef' might step back from the spotlight. Instead, Oliver has doubled down on his mission: to bring healthier, simpler eating to everyday people, and South Africa is now firmly on his radar. New chapter for Jamie Oliver in South Africa This time, Oliver isn't here to open a restaurant but to connect with local audiences in a campaign that balances fun and purpose. Pieter-Steph du Toit and Trevor Nyakane. Picture: screenshot Swapping his kitchen knives for a polygraph machine, he quizzes South African stars from Springbok rugby players Pieter-Steph du Toit and Trevor Nyakane to comedy icon Marc Lottering, as they reveal their 'simple truths' about food, health and life. From Naked Chef to global food icon Oliver first burst onto screens in the late 1990s with The Naked Chef, a cooking show that stripped away the fuss of fine dining and introduced home cooks to straightforward, flavourful dishes. His energy and down-to-earth personality made him a household name, quickly followed by bestselling cookbooks and a line of restaurants. But Oliver's legacy is far bigger than food shows and restaurants. Over the years, he has campaigned tirelessly for healthier school meals in the UK, tackled obesity with hard-hitting documentaries, and created a global movement around food education. His ability to balance star power with real-world impact is part of why he remains so influential, and why his work resonates with South African food lovers who crave both inspiration and authenticity. ALSO READ: Art mimicking reality: Inside Musa Mseleku's appearance on hit South African soapie Why South Africa makes sense For Oliver, South Africa represents an exciting new frontier. The country has a vibrant food culture that blends tradition with innovation, and its growing community of health-conscious shoppers is hungry for honest, sustainable choices. Oliver has often said that food is about community, and South Africa's mix of heritage, diversity, and creativity makes it fertile ground for his message. This led to him endorsing Simple Truth, Checkers' private label wellness range. What fans can expect For local foodies, Oliver's presence in this campaign is more than celebrity sparkle; it's validation that the country's evolving food landscape is attracting the attention of global heavyweights. His philosophy of fresh, simple and joyful cooking fits perfectly into South Africa's growing appetite for wellness-focused dining. The range at the heart of the campaign spans hundreds of items, from organic pantry staples to innovative plant-based options. For Oliver, this is proof that healthy doesn't mean boring. 'Choosing doesn't have to be hard,' he says, 'and the no-junk promise makes it easy for families to eat better every day.' ALSO READ:WATCH: Joe Thomas honoured with first Ndlala Mall Walk of Fame star A recipe for connection Jamie Oliver's South African return isn't about recreating his restaurant past. It's about future-proofing his mission: empowering people to enjoy food that's simple, nourishing and honest. By teaming up with beloved South African personalities, he's also proving that the conversation around food and health doesn't have to be heavy-handed; it can be light, funny and still meaningful.
