Influencers sport iconic Aussie uniform at Coachella

Perth Now21-04-2025

Two Aussie influencers have stepped out at weekend two of Coachella sporting a very different kind of festival look — a Bunnings uniform.
Fayt the Label founder Brittney Saunders and comedian Matt Hey revealed the unmistakable green and red ensemble in a get ready video posted to Instagram.
The long-term friends — who host the High Scrollers podcast together — were unsure if the unconventional outfit choice would land with American festival-goers.
'Overall feeling great, but don't know if this is going to be even funny,' Saunders said as the pair posed in their branded red polo shirts, dark green aprons and brimmed hats.
'Hopefully all the Aussies will spot us because everyone is else is going to be like do they actually work here or something?'
But fellow Aussies praised the duo's take on the festival fit, labelling it an 'iconic' move.
'This is hilarious and iconic at the same time!! You guys are absolute legends, good on ya!' one follower said.
'This wins best Coachella outfit,' another declared.
The pair even won-over the hardware giant: 'ICONIC,' Bunnings Warehouse commented.
Music greats including Lady Gaga, Green Day, Travis Scott, and Post Malone headlined the annual festival's second weekend.

Brian Wilson 'went silent' and 'became detached' after battling COVID-19

Brian Wilson "went silent" and "became detached" as he battled the long-term effects of COVID-19, according to his bandmate Al Jardine. The Beach Boys legend passed away on Wednesday (11.06.25) at the age of 82 after a long battle with health issues and his close friend Al has now opened up about the "turning point" back in 2022 when he saw the singer/songwriter begin to deteriorate. Al told Variety: "There was no trauma to speak of until that very last tour in '22. He kind of went silent and began to suffer the effects of long-term COVID, I was told, so I think that was a turning point for him. He became detached." Brian also suffered mobility issues after undergoing several operations on his back and Al thinks being unable to move around properly affected his pal's mental health. He explained: "His infirmity must have been really depressing, not being able to walk again." However, Al is convinced Brian enjoyed his final tour despite his struggles before finally stepping out of the spotlight. He added: "He was with his adoptive family, and we all loved him, and he knew it, and he savored every moment. "Until he got on stage. And then he might decide: 'Well, I'm just gonna let them do it.' Who knows what was going through his mind, but he would check out on that last tour. "And that was hard work for him; he was fragile and tired and exhausted from probably that long-term COVID thing ... So, he became, on stage, not the entertainer that everyone thought they were coming to see." Brian's family confirmed the late star's passing earlier this week by posting a message on his official Instagram page. It read: "Our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. "We are at a loss for words right now. "Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving. We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world. Love and Mercy." The Beach Boys added in a statement: "The world mourns a genius today, and we grieve for the loss of our cousin, our friend, and our partner in a great musical adventure. "Brian Wilson wasn't just the heart of The Beach Boys—he was the soul of our sound. "The melodies he dreamed up and the emotions he poured into every note changed the course of music forever. His unparalleled talent and unique spirit created the soundtrack of so many lives around the globe, including our own. "Together, we gave the world the American dream of optimism, joy, and a sense of freedom—music that made people feel good, made them believe in summer and endless possibilities. "We are heartbroken by his passing. We will continue to cherish the timeless music we made together and the joy he brought to millions over the decades. "And while we will miss him deeply, his legacy will live on through his songs and in our memories. Our hearts go out to Brian's family and his loved ones during this difficult time."

More charges for UK rapper accused of raping woman

A British YouTuber and musician fighting allegations he raped and choked a woman after a gig has been hit with two more charges, as his trial date is set. Yung Filly, whose real name is Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, appeared in Perth District Court on Friday. The 29-year-old is accused of sexually assaulting a woman in her 20s in a hotel room following a performance in the city's northern suburbs in September. He previously pleaded not guilty to four counts of sexual penetration without consent and three counts of assault occasioning bodily harm. The entertainer has also denied impeding the woman's normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure to her neck. He is now facing two additional counts of sexual penetration without consent, although no plea has been entered. The additional charges were briefly mentioned in court but not explained and his lawyer declined to discuss the change outside court. The London rapper, who has 1.8 million YouTube subscribers and millions of Instagram and TikTok followers, will face a 10-day trial on April 20, 2026. He was arrested in Brisbane and extradited to Perth in October. Barrientos's Wikipedia page says he was born in Colombia. He started his YouTube career in 2013 and music career in 2017. He has also appeared on numerous television shows, including BBC's Hot Property, which he hosted in 2018. Barrientos was previously fined and banned from driving for six months after he pleaded guilty to reckless driving in November, while on bail. 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) National Sexual Abuse and Redress Support Service 1800 211 028 A British YouTuber and musician fighting allegations he raped and choked a woman after a gig has been hit with two more charges, as his trial date is set.

Baby Shark just won't sound the same after this excellent Aussie thriller

Dangerous Animals (MA, 98 minutes) 4 stars The "final girl" is almost an essential in any horror film, the last of the film's female characters left alive to either triumph over the bad or evil figure, or the last and most spectacular of the film's killings. Hassie Harrison, a young and blonde Texan actress with a season on the horsey drama Yellowstone on her CV, is the lead and final girl in this spectacularly gruesome new Aussie horror film. She's an actor to keep an eye on because she is memorable in a film of memorable characters and moments, and particularly holds her own against Jai Courtney playing a character as iconic as John Jarratt's Wolf Creek antihero Mick Taylor. In a fictional surf-swept town close to the Gold Coast, Captain Tucker (Jai Courtney) runs a charter boat business offering tourists the once-in-a-lifetime experience of diving with sharks. It's a strange business for Tucker to have built for himself, considering a miracle childhood escape from a shark encounter that left his body scarred with the bite marks, but Tucker sees it as a marketing opportunity his tourists love hearing about. A thing they probably don't love, as we discover in the film's opening scene, is that when Tucker discovers a tourist hasn't told anyone where they're going, he enjoys throwing them to the sharks and filming the blood churning in the water as the sharks tear them apart. So, probably not the diving experience you're looking for. A Yankie surfer touring Australia in a beat-up camper van, Zephyr (Hassie Harrison) is in the wrong place at the wrong time when she asks Tucker for help with her surfboard, and finds herself kidnapped and awakens on his shark vessel, destined to be chum. But fortunately for Zephyr, she's made a real impression on local surfer Moses (Josh Hueston), who manages to track her down and just might have the fearlessness to take on Tucker. Australia makes great low-budget horror, and this film is certainly great, a prince among the many budget slasher films Australia churns out, but with the exception of one or two moments, this film does not look cheap at all. This is probably thanks to the assured direction of Sean Byrne, whose two previous turns in the director's chair, The Loved Ones and The Devil's Candy, were also very memorable. A lot of the film is cleverly set on a rusted-out trawler just infused with atmosphere. Harrison and Hueston, one of the cast of the recent Heartbreak High reboot, are very strong, and it's a weirdly enjoyable element of the screenplay that these two smoke shows continue to chat each other up and flirt outrageously even when they're being tied down and tortured by Courtney's serial killer. Nick Lepard's screenplay isn't the most original genre mash-up, and yet it all just comes together as an original and enjoyable scare-fest, in the way that first Wolf Creek felt new and memorable. And the most enjoyable and original element is Jai Courtney's performance, a force of nature that you almost want to root for as the anti-hero, and I feel this is a career second-act for Courtney, who has played villains before, but not like this. You will, honestly, never listen to Baby Shark the same way again. I had a brown underpants moment in my teens with a shark alarm at a surf carnival, so I am equal parts drawn to and terrified by shark films, and one of the interesting things in Dangerous Animals is that the sharks are probably the safer bet for the characters.
