IT'S quite a smoke screen even by modern celebrity standards.
I'm talking about the buff and beautiful quick to extol their clean-living credentials and - often commoditise them - while indulging in one very dirty habit.

Yes, I'm talking about smoking.
Take singer Dua Lipa – pictured lighting up in Paris earlier in the year and last week in Mallorca, all at odds with the virtuous daily routine of ice baths and slurping uber trendy colostrum milk, revealed to Vogue magazine recently.
Not to be outdone, on-and-off again smoker model Bella Hadid's 10-step morning ritual, full of woo woo details from fulvic detox drinks to sage smudging (don't ask), but predictably no mention of her daily vape.
And, what about ostensibly health-conscious Rochelle Humes? The co-founder of matcha tea and lifestyle brand, Cloudcha, has been tight-lipped on the subject ever since being caught puffing away outside a London restaurant back in 2021.
Yes, even in these oversharing times when big names blab about their cosmetic procedures and namecheck their surgeons, the stigma around cigarettes - the original appetite suppressants long before Ozempic came to town - is rife.
No one, it seems wants to be accused of thinking more about their waistline than their lung health or spark speculation that their lithe physiques are down to anything but iron will and Reformer Pilates.
And inevitably things can be even more cloak and dagger when it comes to those raking in the big bucks from their uber lucrative side hustle.
Step forward, Jennifer Aniston, whose health-oriented endorsements are rumoured to make up half of her current $20 million annual income.
Remember when the actress's then-husband, Justin Theroux, posted a video of her smoking on her 53rd birthday in 2022?
The incriminating footage – played out to the beat of Taylor Swift's 'Look What You Made Me Do' was hastily deleted, no doubt to protect a $300 million dollar brand that shows little sign of waning.
Now at the age of 57, the former Friends star is back as the face of premium bottled water brand, Smartwater, and airing her ripped size two body in a new shoot for exercise brand, Pvolve, which she credits with getting her in the best shape of her life.

Cigarettes may once have been welded to many a supermodel pout in the '90s without any judgement, but these days they are more likely to come with a trigger warning.
New documentary, Oasis Definitely, to mark the band's 25th anniversary tour, felt it necessary to warn viewers of scenes showing 'people smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol throughout' – presumably for those sensitive souls who have only known a life since the indoor smoking ban.
And I wouldn't put too much steer on singer Charlie XCX urging fans to embrace their inner brat with a 'packet of cigs and a Bic lighter'.
It's a rare ripple of rebellion which will make little dent on
those both riding the wellness bandwagon and buying into it as health titan Gwyneth Paltrow knows only too well.
The 52-year-old former actress who founded her $250 million Goop brand in 2008 has, of course, been keen to distance herself from her heavy smoking youth.
Well, that vice was never going to sit well amongst the endorphin oil, sauna blankets and mouth tape (used to promote nasal breathing during sleep) sold on the website.

In 2022, when interviewed by Holly Willoughby on her podcast, By The Light Of The Moon, Paltrow blamed her nicotine addiction on that age-old stress of being a multi-millionaire, Brad Pitt dating-
Hollywood actress.
She further revealed that she went on to allow herself a light American Spirit cigarette on Saturday nights in 2013 – before giving up completely – the kind of reformation lapped
up by Goop fans awaiting every new hack and product drop.
Meanwhile, it's worth noting that not-so-secret smoker and perennial party girl Kate Moss's beauty and wellness brand, Cosmoss folded last month.
Launched in 2022 with products including 'aura mist' sprays and signature tea blends – it's a rare flop for the Croydon-born supermodel who usually has the commercial Midas touch.
An authenticity fail? Perhaps her hedonistic reputation was simply too entrenched while being regularly snapped smoking and vaping away around the capital – and even just this week in Ibiza doesn't help.
As many celebrity puffers have discovered if you really can't quit then you need to be discreet because you are only ever a puff away from being papped.

Inside the Lionesses' incredibly normal homes - and there's not a mansion in sight

The Lionesses have risen to success during the Euros and will face Spain in the final this Sunday, but when they're not on the pitch, they can be found at their stunning yet minimalist homes As the England Women's Football team prepares for their Euro final match against Spain this Sunday, footie fans are eager to learn more about the gifted players – including where they reside. ‌ Despite their hectic schedules, the Lionesses still manage to add personal touches to their homes. Many of them reside in mid-sized houses adorned with modern decor and sleek furnishings, hinting at a possible shared love for minimalistic interiors within the squad. ‌ There's even the odd football memorabilia spotted in the background, and spaces they've created for those all-important recovery days. Let's take a closer look inside... ‌ Extra bank holiday update if Lionesses win Euros as No10 breaks silence on day off Alex Greenwood ‌ Lioness left-back Alex Greenwood shares her home with partner Jack O'Connell, whom she met during her teenage years. The 31-year-old Manchester City captain has kept most of her home life off social media, but a handful of posts revealed that she has a plush grey sofa and white-washed walls in her living room. In snaps from February 2023, Greenwood can be seen lying on the snug grey sofa, adorned with matching cushions. Air diffusers sit on the white window seals, and a black coffee table and cabinet can be spotted in the background. There's also a touching nod to her career, where a football sits in a stand on the cabinet - we just wonder what game it came from. Lucy Bronze ‌ The Chelsea right-back, known as one of the world's top female footballers, lives in a stunning abode with a trendy bedroom and sleek kitchen. In photos shared on Instagram, Bronze revealed her terracotta and pink-shaded bedroom, with warm furnishings and cosy interiors. The room is adorned with abstract art above the bed, plants on the wooden chest of drawers, a circle mirror, lamps with rattan shades, and plush pillows scattered across the double bed. With its warming tones and snug features, it is the perfect haven. In an Instagram post back in 2021, Lucy is thought to have shared another look inside her home, this time her kitchen. ‌ While it's unclear if Bronze has since moved, the large kitchen boasted sleek grey cabinets and a large island in the middle. In the snap, Bronze beamed alongside her Nan to sweetly wish her a happy birthday. The same room with the kitchen and open-planned space was featured in another Instagram post in the same year, this time with the footballer holding her beloved pooch. The downstairs area boasts white tiled flooring and white walls for a minimalistic finish, with large patio doors spanning the room. Chloe Kelly ‌ Arsenal forward Chloe Kelly lives with her husband, Scott, whom she married in July last year. They also have three adorable dogs, Rolo, Otis, and Brody. Although they haven't officially shown the public around their home, fans have had sneak peeks of its contemporary design on several occasions. The couple has opted for a minimalist aesthetic with a grey carpeted staircase, beige walls, and grey floorboards. ‌ Ella Toone In November 2022, the Manchester United attacking midfielder became a proud homeowner and is thought to be living with her long-term boyfriend, Joe Bunney. In a snap shared on Instagram at the time, Toone beamed as she stood outside her new pad and wrote the caption: "Happy new home day." In further snaps, Toone shared a closer glimpse inside her abode, including her living room, which follows the theme of other Lionesses' style. The cosy area boasts a grey corner sofa, beige walls, abstract prints, a black coffee table, and a plush grey rug for extra comfort. The dining room is just as sleek with a stone grey table with circular glass lights hanging above and two shelves filled with photos, ornaments, and plants. It really is the ideal abode to relax after a football tournament.

Bianca Censori debuts a new covered-up look as she and husband Kanye West fly into Seoul

She frequently leaves little to the imagination with her wardrobe but Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori surprisingly jetted into Seoul in a completely covered-up outfit. In a departure from her usual flesh-flashing attire, on Friday Bianca showed hardly any skin as she touched down into the South Korean capital alongside her husband Kanye West Bianca was in a black sweater with matching leggings and feathery leg warmers, and she added a taupe messenger cap and sunglasses. Kanye dressed similarly in all-black, and opted for a zip-down sweatshirt, leather pants, and chunky boots. The couple's outing was after Bianca recently appeared in skin-out photos, which were photographed by her rapper husband and shared on Instagram. The images showed her as she posed in white lace lingerie in a hotel room in Japan, in shots taken in October.

Nepo babies used to get on our nerves – now they've got the upper hand

This week, Brooklyn Beckham shocked his followers when he shared a video of himself rustling up a tomato pasta dish using seawater. In the clip posted to his Instagram, the would-be chef leans off the back of a luxury yacht and dips a silver saucepan into the sea, before bringing the briny to boil and plopping in some spaghetti. 'That's disgusting,' one person commented. Others said: 'Nothing like cooking in sewage water …' and – possibly most devastating of all – 'Go get a real job PLEASE!!!!!!' Beckham, 26, has long faced criticism from nepo baby haters for using his privileged position as the eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham to his advantage in his various 'careers'. His amateurish seawater pasta is but his latest clueless foray into the world of work. He irritated established fashion photographers when, aged 16, he was hired by Burberry to shoot its latest fragrance campaign. In a juvenile collection of his photographs, published by Penguin Random House, his shot of a dimly lit elephant was accompanied by a caption: 'Elephants in Kenya. so hard to photograph but incredible to see.' In 2022, his career relaunch as an chef-influencer, with his straight-to-Instagram show Cookin' with Brooklyn, reputedly required a team of 62 professionals, including culinary producers, cameramen and several producers – and cost a staggering £74,000 an episode to make. Nothing like starting at the bottom and working your way up, is there? When Oasis return to Wembley Stadium this weekend, for the first time since 2009, as part of the brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher's reunion tour, they will be supported by Richard Ashcroft of The Verve. But eyes have no doubt rolled at Liam's daughter Molly and Ashcroft's son Sonny gracing the front of the new issue of Tatler, as cover stars for their latest Cool Britannia issue for the same reason: they are only famous because of their parents. In the cover photo, Molly, 27, a model, is standing on an elaborate gilded French stool in a blue leather mini-coat, with musician Sonny, 25, who is hoping to release music soon – wearing a tie against the backdrop of a huge Union flag. The trouble with nepo babies – a phrase coined in 2022 that shortens 'nepotism', and which Gwyneth Paltrow dismissed as an "ugly moniker" with which to beat the children of famous people – is that they are successful only because their famous parent(s) helped them get their foot in the door. Those that are talented struggle to escape the pervasive feeling that their connections and money have given them a headstart that other equally talented people won't get. The resentment is that it's grossly unfair as the rest of us have to claw our way to the top. We can't just walk into a movie role, or capitalise on being the next generation leading the Britpop revival. To win favour, nepo babies shouldn't deny or hide their privilege like Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis's daughter Lily-Rose Depp, 26, did when she once claimed in Elle magazine that 'nothing is going to get you the part except for being right for the part'. This week, Isadora Bjarkardottir Barney, 22-year-old daughter of Icelandic singer Björk, claimed that being a nepo baby 'doesn't help you much', after landing her first leading role in a feature film, The Mountain. Hailey Bieber tried to embrace the term by wearing a 'Nepo Baby' crop top in 2023, to acknowledge her Baldwin family dynasty links, but was then criticised online for 'not being enough' of a nepo baby. Stranger Things actor Maya Hawke – daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman – tried a different tack, admitting what a privileged position she is in, compared with the rest of us. Since the whole debate erupted with New York Magazine's 2022 cover The Year of the Nepo Baby, things have changed. I say it's about time we stopped hating on nepo babies. Today's nepos – nepo 2.0, the next generation – are fully aware of their ridiculousness, and they're now actually playing up to it. Because they can't help who their famous parents are – and what else are they supposed to do? That's why Beckham now courts criticism and finger-pointing laughs by cooking seawater pasta, and why the Oasis nepo babies are happy to push their status as cultural icons for a new generation. The difference is the new breed of nepo babies aren't struggling with the nepo label. They are just happy to weaponise it and get up in our faces. Blue Ivy Carter, 13, the daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, has been dubbed a positive example of nepotism in the music industry for her stage presence and talent after she brazenly adopted the role of chief backing dancer for her mum's Cowboy Carter tour – often stealing the limelight. Kai Gerber, 23, looks the spitting image of her supermodel mum Cindy Crawford – for a reason. She's continuing Crawford's legacy in the fashion industry. Nepo babies offer the rest of us light relief in dark times. Getting ahead because of mum and/or dad isn't going away – so we might as well enjoy it.
