Florence Pugh hates the word 'ick': 'It's really s***'

Perth Now05-05-2025

Florence Pugh hates the term "ick".
The 29-year-old actress admitted in a joint interview with her 'Thunderbolts' co-star Lewis Pullman that when it comes to social media slang which describes an element of someone's personality that turns another off, she believes it is a "really s***" way to think about anyone.
She told Glamour UK: "I don't like the term ick. I don't believe in the… I think it's really shit. And it only really associates to men and I don't like that either… People f*** up and that's absolutely fine.
The Hollywood star - who struck up a relationship with 'Peaky Blinders' star Finn Cole towards the end of last year - wonders what the "big deal" is with the term anyway and insisted that she would always "embrace" everything within a potential partner.
"Why are we making a big deal out of it? [To Lewis] "I don't know your ick and I don't care about your ick, because I embrace all of you."
Lewis confirmed that he himself doesn't have any "icks" and quickly shifted the conversation to ask his co-star who should play her in a biopic, but she doesn't even thinks she "deserves" one yet.
She said: "I haven't thought about that. That's assuming I've thought about it. That's assuming that I think that I deserve one.
"No way! No way! There are plenty more important and more brilliant people that deserve a biopic. I can't even speak."
Meanwhile, Florence was asked about the most-used emoji i her phone and revealed that it has changed a number of times of the years but at the moment, it is one that she has found to be "effective" for just about any text messaging conversation.
She said: "It's changed over the years, but recently it's the person doing a cartwheel. So cute.So effective for anything. Like if someone says, "Are you coming out tonight?" Just send them that. Or 'Are you up for lunch?'
"Send them that. Or, "Hey, did you do the laundry?" Send them that. It's honestly brilliant,
"And then also the disco man."

David Harbour ditches his smart phone

David Harbour often ditches his smart phone for months at a time because it helps him focus on "the things that are important". The Stranger Things star has revealed he regularly gives himself a digital detox by swapping his device for an old-fashioned flip phone which isn't connected to the Internet because it takes his focus off replying to emails and online shoppping. He told Interview magazine: "I go through phases where I get rid of it entirely and go flip phone ... Having a flip phone is an amazing experience because you actually have to call people, and you don't deal with emails until you get home ... "I've gone four or five months at a time ... I think it's a product of the [smart] phone that you think you need those things [like emails]. "When you have the flip phone, you just forget about the thing you wanted to buy, and the things that are important rise to the surface." David - who split from his pop star wife Lily Allen last year - went on to reveal he's also taken a big step back from social media recently. He added: "Early on, I was so enamored by the spotlight. I'd be like: 'Come on in, let me show you my world.' "And then you start to get sour on the amount of work it takes, and you're like: 'Man, I got into this business so that I could reveal aspects of myself through characters whose stories are much more interesting than mine, so why don't I just focus on telling those stories?' "Now my Instagram is literally advertisements for my projects ... "It's just posters, and I guess studios care about the number of followers and things like that ... "I think eventually I'll just give it over to a publicity person and allow it to function as a facade for however people want to view me ... I mean, it's the same as studios putting your face on a poster." David went on to reveal he's enjoyed being busy recently - shooting the new series of Stranger Things as well as his movie Thunderbolts - because he goes "little stir-crazy" when he's on his own, but he's enjoyed spending time at his home in Atlanta where he's been growing fruit and vegetables in the garden. The actor explained he's been soaking up the "hippie" vibes and making friends with neighbours which has been a different experience to living full-time in New York City.

Oasis fans invited to send personal stories for Oasis Live '25 Tour film

Oasis fans are being invited to share their stories about "a particular song" that holds "deep meaning" to them for the Oasis Live '25 Tour film. Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight is producing the reuniting Britpop legends' documentary, with renowned filmmakers Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace on board to direct - the duo behind LCD Soundsystem's concert film Shut Up And Play The Hits. Magna Studios - whose credits include Beastie Boys Story, Gangs Of London, 20000 Days On Earth, and Lewis Capaldi: How I'm Feeling Now - are heading up the production and are asking fans to send in their special memories associated with the Live Forever hitmakers' songs for potential inclusion in the film. A post on the website read: "Now, in the year of Oasis' sell out reunion tour, Magna Studios and Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders, A Thousand Blows) - in association with Oasis - are making a film exploring how this band's music has become so important to so many. We are asking people all over the world if there is a particular Oasis song that has deep meaning for you. A song that tells the story of a life changing moment, a love, a loss, a heartbreak, or a break for freedom. 'Whatever the Oasis song, whatever the story – tell us…' Oasis' UK and Ireland shows - their first in 16 years - will kick off in Cardiff on July 4 and see them joined by special guests Richard Ashcroft and Cast. The Supersonic band will also play USA, Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil. Meanwhile, frontman Liam Gallagher recently dismissed fan concerns over his vocal health ahead of the long-awaited reunion tour. The 52-year-old frontman - who has Hashimoto's disease, which can cause a hoarse voice - sparked a frenzy online after posting about taking throat lozenges, sour candies and cough syrup, prompting speculation from fans that his voice might not hold up during his and older brother Noel's upcoming stadium comeback shows this summer. One fan messaged him on X after his admission: '@liamgallagher If you need that many throat stuff does that mean anytime your voice can still go? We don't want cancellations.' Liam replied: 'Shut up you melt.' Another user asked the singer: '@liamgallagher Did you eat all your sour throat candies yesterday?' – to which Liam responded: '@adele_liam I did 2 pacs.' The Oasis reunion marks the first time the band have performed together since 2009, when they split after a backstage altercation between the siblings at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. Their return to the stage has been one of the most anticipated music events of the decade. Rehearsals kicked off in London, with Liam joining his bandmates — including his brother Noel, 58 — for rehearsals this week.
