Lindsay Lohan's Press Tour Is A Love Letter To Her Early Roles
If your early 2000s DVD collection included The Devil Wears Prada , Bend It Like Beckham and My Best Friend's Wedding , you'll be pleased to know they're all in various stages of reboot. Now, the long awaited Freaky Friday sequel ( Freakier Friday ) is officially joining the lineup - and Lindsay Lohan is already bringing the throwbacks. ©Lindsay Lohan Freaky Friday UK Premiere, Getty Images While doing UK press for the film on July 31, Lohan hit the red carpet in a custom Ludovic de Saint Sernin gown that instantly caught the eye of loyal fans. The dress - a sheer lavender metal mesh design covered in golden Swarovski crystals was a reimagining of the one she wore in Freaky Friday's final wedding scene, originally designed by Mandalay. Whilst the riff off was covered in gems, the original featured a delicate lace trimmed camisole top and matching bias-cut skirt. Ludovic de Saint Sernin took to Instagram to say, 'I can't believe I'm actually writing this caption right now. I've been dreaming and manifesting this moment for nearly 20 years. And the best part of it all is that I got to see it with my own eyes! What an incredible privilege to be a creative and to have the opportunity to make your teenage dreams come true. I feel overwhelmed with joy and love right now. It's a full-circle moment for me.' The archival nod didn't stop at the dress. Lohan carried a miniature guitar-shaped bag by Judith Leiber, a playful wink to her character Anna's band girl past. Where the original character wore hers on a strap, Lohan clutched this one like a clutch, turning teenage angst into red carpet moment. She finished the look with simple Manolo Blahnik heels which gave the look a more grown up feel. The Mean Girls star has been on a full nostalgia streak lately. Earlier this week, she paid tribute to another one of her iconic roles - this time from her film debut, The Parent Trap . Appearing on Good Morning America on July 28, Lohan wore a butter yellow two piece set from Balmain's pre-spring 2026 collection by Olivier Rousteing. The look featured a cropped tweed jacket in a white and black plaid and a matching mini skirt. It's safe to say Lindsay Lohan's press tour is a love letter to her early roles. Freakier Friday will be out in cinemas on the August 8th. [ Renee Washington ]{href=' } , Grazia's digital fashion and beauty writer, lives online.

15 names bookies think could play Ozzy Osbourne in a future film of the late metal icon
Of the pantheon (or glut) of musical biopics that could appear in the forthcoming years, one name that we bid farewell to this week stands above the rest – Ozzy Osbourne. 'The Prince of Darkness' is one of those rare musicians who managed to transcend one art form, becoming as much a beloved reality show dad as he is one of the godfathers of heavy metal. With tales of debauchery, redemption, and recovery towards the end of his life, it would no doubt make a fascinating biopic should it come to fruition. Do I hear early Oscar buzz... very early, should I say? With discussions now surrounding potentially 'when' rather than 'if' we get a biopic on the life of Ozzy Osbourne, Entertainment expert, James Leyfield, has already offered up suggestions who could play the role in the future, with some obvious names alongside a few interesting selections, depending on the nature of the biopic. So, who could play Ozzy in his life story? Here are the 15 favourites and the odds that are currently being offered. 1 . Denzel Washington (Odds: 10/1, Probability: 9.1%) A veteran Hollywood actor and an acting legend, his casting would be seen as a huge left-field choice. However, given his immense versatility, you could argue he has the dramatic chops to nail the 'Prince of Darkness' persona - especially if any biopic eschews a normal narrative for a biopic (see: I'm Not Here.) | Valery Hache/Pool/Getty Images Photo Sales 2 . Fred Hechinger (Odds: 9/1, Probability: 10%) Hechinger is a contemporary, youthful choice for the role. The young actor is best known for his work in the Fear Street trilogy and HBO's The White Lotus, making him a rising star with a unique and quirky screen presence. |Photo Sales 3 . Caleb Landry Jones (Odds: 8/1, Probability: 11.1%) A surprising entry, Jones has received critical acclaim for his roles in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Get Out, showcasing his range with intense and off-kilter characters. His experience with dramatic, transformative roles could lend a unique depth to the portrayal of Osbourne. |for FLC Photo Sales 4 . Iwan Rheon (Odds: 15/2, Probability: 11.7%) For fans of HBO's Game of Thrones, Rheon's casting would no doubt elicit comparisons to the more villainous roles he has undertaken. But his roles in films such as The Dirt show he has the experience to pull off the musician lifestyle, having portrayed Mick Mars in the Motley Crue biopic. | CHRIS DELMAS/AFP via Getty Images Photo Sales

Myleene Klass says she ‘doesn't care if people don't like her' after bombshell claim ex cheated on her with a celeb
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MYLEENE Klass admitted she "doesn't care if people don't like her" after she revealed her ex cheated with another celebrity. Earlier this week, the Loose Women star, 47, said she walked in on her then partner Graham Quinn and another famous woman unzipping each other's clothes at HER birthday party. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Myleene Klass said she 'doesn't care if people don't like her' after her bombshell claim Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk 5 The TV star revealed her ex Graham Quinn 'cheated' on her with another celebrity Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk 5 Myleene said the scandalous moment happened at her OWN birthday party Credit: Getty Images - Getty Myleene — who wouldn't divulge the female's name but said she built her career off a 'family brand' — revealed: 'I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony. It was in my house. 'It was my party. They weren't having sex, but they were unzipping each other. '[They said] 'It's not what you think', but it is what I think. It's the first thing they both said." Following the bombshell claim, speculation over the mystery woman has spread like wild fire across social media. And now Myleene has insisted that she has no regrets in her honest interview with the We Need to Talk podcast. Myleene shared her manager's reaction to her podcast appearance, saying: '"You should do it, it would be good for you, but be honest, everyone knows when people aren't honest', my manager before We Need To Talk podcast. "'Errrrr s*** Leens, I didn't think you were going to be THAT honest'.. My manager AFTER We Need to Talk podcast." Myleene said podcast host Paul was able to "see into her soul", allowing her to reveal most intimate details of her life over their five hour recording session. The singer continued: "I flew back from abroad to do this podcast. I'd heard a lot about Paul C. Brunson and had seen the We Need To Talk headlines. "As I've gotten older, more comfortable with being vulnerable, I'm drawn to things that stretch and challenge me. Myleene Klass looks incredible in red bikini on family holiday in Thailand with lookalike sister "I wasn't prepared for how disarming Paul is and how he looks into your soul and pulls out the very core of what makes you tick. "I didn't think he'd be able to do it. "From the outside, what do we have in common? Maybe that was the challenge, to see what he had on me. Turns out, a lot. "We ran into the night, five hours of recording, (subsequently multiple lawyers on both sides listened back and reached for their fire blankets) and we actually REALLY got on. "The two of us in a room brought out raucous laughter, the kind where you throw your head back and ugly cackle, abject sorrow, shock and everything else in between." Myleene admitted she's "no longer scared" to be disliked after becoming a resilient woman over years of being knocked down. "My life has been played out in public for 26 years. I've lost relationships, been turned over (by men, not all men, but always men) and had to rebuild on more than one occasion," she said. "I've also won. I won my jungle crown, my MBE, my family, my place and my peace. "I don't care if people like me anymore, I'm not the terrified 20 year old girl from Hear'say being pelted with chow mein on stage for trying to sing a few songs. "I'm no longer the girl who watched her life go up in smoke, fighting for everything I'd built from people who'd meticulously planned how to take it. "I've been torn down by those who were meant to love me, I think I'll be ok. In fact, I know I will. A mixed race girl, from Norfolk, no one expected much (my school report proves this). "I learned to hustle, stand up for myself and leave the betrayals behind. Who knew being a Mum would be the making of me, as failing meant my children failing (including the ones I never got to hold) and that was never going to happen." 'Utterly devastated' Myleene recalled the moment she caught her ex allegedly cheating on her and what happened in the aftermath. 'I kicked everybody out of the party, including his mum and dad. They went back to Ireland," she said. 'And his dad said, 'He doesn't get it from me'. I was like, 'OK'. I just remember that being quite a weird thing to say.' Myleene admitted she struggled to see the woman continuing as normal after the run-in, explaining: 'I've made peace with that situation now. 'But for a long time, it was very difficult to see their life . . . Not that I would wish that on a family. I don't know, I feel conflicted. 'But my life literally just broke apart very, very publicly. 'And their life, they've managed to continue building a family brand on it and it felt so difficult for a long time. This is the person I caught him with.' Former Hear'Say singer Myleene, 47, had met Graham when he was working as part of the band's security team. Despite the incident, she went on to marry him. They had two children, Ava and Hero, during their 12-year relationship, but were granted a divorce in 2013. Recalling their 2011 wedding in Norwich, which was attended by just 16 people, Myleene said: 'It was the most miserable . . . No one forgot this wedding because I literally cried the entire reception.' It was made worse by the fact that the couple butted heads over her request for him to sign a pre-nuptial agreement. Chatting to Paul C. Brunson on the We Need To Talk podcast, she said: 'So we'd had the biggest row, myself and my ex, because I'd asked him why he wouldn't sign the prenup. 'On the night of our wedding, I asked again. I just felt something was wrong and he didn't want a big wedding. 'My best mate wasn't even at my wedding. They weren't allowed to come, otherwise he wouldn't go through with it.' Months later, the marriage was finished. She said: 'On the day he decided it was over, he pushed a little Post-It note across the table with the figure he wanted. 'I was just like, 'How have you figured this out?'.' But Myleene — who is now engaged to PR guru Simon Motson — added: 'All I will say to you is I've raised my children single-handedly, financially, as a sole parent for 12 years.' 5 Myleene said she's no longer a 'terrified 20-year-old girl from Hear'say' Credit: instagram/@myleeneklass
