Feature Video: Confidence Man & JADE - gossip

Talk shit get a hit! Aussie party starters Confidence Man have joined forces with pop powerhouse JADE to give us something to talk about in this week's Feature Video, 'gossip'. Serving five lowball glasses of scandalous hearsay, with a side of side-eyes (WHAT DID TINA SAY??), this East London lock-in is a debauched spin of the Russian-roulette wheel from director India Harris. Having worked with both artists previously; with Con Man on clips like 'Sicko' and 'Now U Do', and with Jade on 'Plastic Box', this project was a match made in the pub. 'I loved the 00's weirdo club vibe of the track so straight up I knew the video had to be some kind of bonkers narrative' says India. 'The concept sparked from the idea that a disjointed bar full of cloned versions of the same person, somehow became synchronised in a moment before descending into chaos… We went fully cinematic with a letterbox aspect ratio and played with wide-lensed, dutch angles for that pulp, 90's Tarantino vibe. Bring Jade's perfect character building into the madness of Confidence Man's world and voila!' Confidence Man's Janet Planet and Sugar Bones, alongside JADE, all give perfectly bitchy-and-inebriated performances, almost like these were the roles they were born to play (sorry, lol), while India sets them up in all kinds of eccentric scenarios, filled with gun-barrel perspectives, cocktail-sipping, Russian-roulette showdowns, and floor-humping dance moves. The classic Con Man irony intersects with spaghetti western, Mafia and dive bar energy in a truly jam-packed three and a half minutes. 'Indi went full throttle on this one' adds Janet. 'Dramatic, sexy and dumb as all hell. Conman in our element doing what we do best. And bringing Jade into our druggy messed- up world was simply an honour.'

Playing Gracie Darling star Rudi Dharmalingam shares travel highlights

Don't miss out on the headlines from Lifestyle. Followed categories will be added to My News. The UK-based Playing Gracie Darling star Rudi Dharmalingam hits the ground running in search of authentic travel experiences. My first holiday memory is... Visiting Trinidad, the birthplace of my mother, in 1988. I remember watching the 100m men's final in the Seoul Olympics, Ben Johnson destroying the rest of the field only to be later stripped of his title because of doping. I have many sporting-related childhood memories. I have visited... Twenty-one countries. The place I've visited the most often is... Australia. I've worked on three projects in your beautiful country. My entire career seems to be moving out there. Can I be an honorary Aussie? My favourite place there is... Jervis Bay. That whole area is quite magical. I stayed in a cabin in bushland and it was heaven. The older I get the more I appreciate enveloping myself in nature. It was the one time in my life that I was truly at peace. The place I've visited the most often is Australia. I've worked on three projects in your beautiful country. The place I'd love to visit in Australia is... Too many places to list. I've been to Australia three times for work and all those trips involved staying in NSW. The rest I'm yet to explore. Top of my list is the Northern Territory because I need to see a crocodile. My most memorable travel experience happened in... Nepal. I was working on a show there a few years ago and there was one moment in particular that I'll always treasure. We were staying over 3km above sea level and I recall looking out over the horizon and seeing the Himalayas for the first time. Seeing those beautiful snow-capped mountains standing so majestically was a profoundly spiritual moment. The travel experience on my bucket list is... Before I'm 50 I want to run the Marathon Des Sables, a 257km foot race across the Sahara Desert. I seek comfort from discomfort, always trying to alter the ceiling of what I can achieve and conquer. My childhood was filled with sport and I've taken that discipline into my working life. I approach a role with an athlete's mentality. Achieving the extraordinary grows a person on so many levels. The Marathon Des Sables is the toughest foot race on Earth, to finish that is the ultimate human endeavour. My favourite place in Australia is Jervis Bay. My holidays are mostly devoted to... Finding interesting running trails and discovering new culinary experiences. I'm a big food enthusiast, the UK doesn't have a good relationship with food and that is causing us many health problems. Travelling enables me to sample how other countries bond themselves with food. The advice I'd give to young travellers... Walk or run everywhere. We are so accustomed to finding the quickest route from one place to another – a train, a bus or even an Uber. You miss so much of what a country has to offer by using public transport. Using your feet, not only do you smash your daily step count but it's also the best way to find your bearings in an unfamiliar place. The sickest I've been on holiday... In Nepal I managed to avoid an upset stomach for my entire stay right up until the day of departure. I was struck down with the most horrendous bug just before my flight to South Africa. Travelling 16 hours on a plane with food poisoning is pretty hellish as you can imagine. The place I'd love to visit in Australia is the Northern Territory because I need to see a crocodile. The worst thing to happen to me while travelling... While I was working on Wakefield for the ABC, Covid hit, production was paused and I flew back to the UK. After a couple of months I was back in Australia but had to quarantine for two weeks. My hotel room was devoid of opening windows and I had no balcony. Some army guy sat outside my room for the entire time ensuring I didn't try to escape. I didn't realise how much I'd miss seeing a tree and breathing fresh air. The best hotel I've ever stayed in... Soho House Paris. Utterly ridiculous. Opulence and grandeur like nothing else. My room service go-to is… I don't eat late at night and more importantly room service is not a taste of the local cuisine. I'd rather be out exploring those dishes than sat in my hotel room eating burger and chips. The sickest I've been on holiday in Nepal, I was struck down with the most horrendous bug just before my flight. How many flights have you missed? Zero. I'm proud to say I've never missed a flight. I have travel anxiety in the sense that I have to be super early. I'm always the first person at the check-in desk. Passports/visas/wallets/luggage lost? Upon returning to Australia for quarantine on Wakefield I left my laptop on the plane. This was because I managed to stab myself with those metal brackets that hold scripts together. My hand was gushing with blood upon leaving the plane. I then had to get a tetanus jab as a precaution. My favourite travel companion is… My running shoes. Before I'm 50 I want to run the Marathon Des Sables, a 257km foot race across the Sahara Desert. Flight/cruise/car/train? Flight. There's always something exciting about flying. Check-in or carry-on? Check-in. My running gear won't fit in my carry-on. I manage jet lag by... Going for a run. Playing Gracie Darling premieres on Paramount+ on August 14.

Kelly Osbourne made emotional final promise to dad Ozzy before his death: report

Kelly Osbourne is reportedly doing her best to keep the final promise she made to her father, Ozzy Osbourne, before he died. 'The last few days have been a tough ride, but Kelly has been focused on executing plans with her mum,' a source told the Daily Mail on Friday. 'Of course, there have been tears, but she promised her dad — who openly spoke about not wanting people to mourn but rather celebrate his life — that she would not crumble in public.' According to the source, Ozzy — who died last Tuesday at the age of 76 — 'always pushed' his family to 'celebrate what people have done in life, not f***ing worry about what's next.' While Kelly, 40, is trying to maintain her strength and composure, she and her siblings are reportedly 'concerned about the impact this is having on [matriarch] Sharon' Osbourne, who was married to the rock legend for 43 years. 'She and Ozzy were such a unique couple,' the source said, adding that 'them being apart … is heartbreaking.' Sharon, 72, looked visibly distraught during her late husband's funeral procession through his home city of Birmingham, England, on Wednesday. A hearse containing the former Black Sabbath frontman's body travelled along Broad Street and made its way to the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench, where thousands of mourners from around the world left flowers and messages. Sharon, Kelly, and her brother, Jack Osbourne, 39 — who were all part of the cortège — tearfully exited their vehicle to stop at the bench. Sharon, who was held up by Kelly and Jack, sobbed as she bent down to place a pink flower wrapped in black paper among the massive pile of tributes. The emotional bunch, which eventually included two of Ozzy's other kids — son Louis Osbourne, who is about 50, and daughter Aimee Osbourne, 41 — turned to face the crowd and flashed peace signs before getting back in their car. The event, which preceded a 'small, private funeral,' was funded by the Osbourne family. While Ozzy had Parkinson's disease and limited mobility stemming from a 2003 quad bike accident that nearly killed him, his cause of death has not yet been revealed. Shortly after paramedics tried for hours to save his life, his family issued a collective statement that read, 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.' 'He was with his family and surrounded by love,' they continued. 'We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.' Kelly went on to tell her Instagram followers, 'I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had.' Ozzy's health was reportedly already in 'fragile' condition when he and Sharon, who wed in 1982, moved back to England in 2023 to live out 'their final chapter' in Buckinghamshire. Together, they had Aimee, Kelly and Jack, while Ozzy shared Louis with his first wife, Thelma Riley, to whom he was married from 1971 to 1982. The exes are also parents to son Elliot Kingsley, who is in his mid-50s, and daughter Jessica Osbourne, 45.
