Indy Clinton shocks as she parties pantless at Bouf beauty Melbourne launch
Indy Clinton has continued her wild launch tour for Bouf haircare, taking the party to Melbourne in a pair of red leather hot pants after similar appearances in Sydney and on the Gold Coast.
The TikTok personality, 27, has been making headlines with her eye-catching ensembles (including an 'ultra-short' red dress previously worn by Margot Robbie) as she secures press for the newly-launched haircare brand.
On Thursday, the Sydney-based mother of three proved we haven't seen the last of naked dressing as she stepped out in a pair of red leather hot pants and a skintight burgundy turtleneck.
Indy flaunted her ultra-trim pins in the shorts that more closely resembled underwear as she downed winter-warmer cocktails at Bar Jayda.

The trio of Instagram models delivered a bathroom lip sync to Katy Perry's 'I Kissed a Girl' in their cocktail attire.
'This is the best group of people,' Indy told the crowd of her fellow influencers who had gathered to enjoy the festivities.
As temperatures in the Victorian capital dropped to 12°C, Indy did cover her legs in a pair of sheer black stockings teamed with stilettos.
She finished the look with a chocolate faux fur coat, which she tossed on and off for the cameras in the candlelit room.
It comes after she unveiled her ultra-fit figure on Instagram last week,
'Feeling the fittest and strongest I've ever been,' Indy wrote as she revealed the results of a dedicated gym regime with an underwear photo.
'I've put way too much sacrifice and sweat into getting strong after three babies to not show you.'
Indy recently turned to a private investigator to identify the internet trolls who bully her online.
The social media star, who copped severe backlash following her rhinoplasty surgery, hired professionals to identify women who have been 'trolling', 'harassing' and 'defaming' her over the years.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph earlier this month, Indy revealed that the cyberbullies had been identified and she was ready to take action to hold them accountable.
'Some of the defamatory things which have been said about me in recent years are extremely distressing,' she began.
She went on to express her frustration over the issue, saying that if the social media platforms couldn't make a change, she would.
'I will use my platform and my voice to not only spread awareness but to make an impact,' she shared.
The social media star made a harrowing confession about the toll cyberbullying takes on mental health.
'Lives are being taken,' she said, adding: 'For me - a few months ago - what I endured was life or death.'
Indy then took to TikTok to share a clip regarding her investigation into the trolls, revealing some of them were 'mothers'.
'How it feels receiving a 64-page report from my PI [private investigator] after an extensive three month investigation on all my ladies (mothers) who have continuously bullied, defamed and trolled me and my family for months and months and even years,' she wrote across the video of her dancing.
'Send me some outfit inspo pics for court,' she captioned the post, alluding to the fact that she was taking legal action against the cyberbullies.
The action has been heralded by Australian influencers as something of a rallying cry, with dozens of high-profile content creators praising the effort online.
'Think I might do this too. You are not anonymous trolls,' AFL WAG Bec Judd commented on the post.

The science of breakups: As Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom call it quits, scientist reveals the strategies most commonly used to end a relationship
Following weeks of swirling rumours and speculation, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have reportedly called time on their relationship. After nine years and one child together, the I Kissed A Girl singer and Lord of the Rings actor have allegedly broken up. Their split has been 'amicable', according to sources, but details of their separation have not yet been released. However, science could shed some light on how the breakup went down. There are nine strategies commonly used to end a relationship, which can be grouped into three overall categories, according to new research. Although many studies have examined why people break up, few have looked closely at how breakups happen. A team, from the University of Nicosia, conducted two studies involving more than 600 people. Some participants were asked to imagine themselves in an unhappy relationship and write down how they would end it, while others were asked how likely they were to use 45 different breakup methods. The team grouped the 45 breakup methods into nine overall strategies. These included approaches like 'cold and distant' (gradually pulling away), 'explain the reasons' (offering a direct and honest conversation), 'ghosting' (disappearing with no notice), 'take the blame' (ending the relationship while accepting responsibility) and 'have been unfaithful' (citing infidelity or interest in someone else). The remaining four strategies were to 'take some time off' (requesting a break), 'see you as a friend' (offering friendship), 'we'd be better off apart' (explaining that separation is best), and 'avoid ending it face to face' (using a phone call or text). The scientists discovered that these nine approaches fit into three broader strategies. Analysis of participants' responses revealed the most popular breakup tactic is the 'soften the blow' approach, which 86 per cent of people surveyed said they would use. This method combined acts like explaining the reasons for the breakup, accepting some or all of the blame, and trying to convince the partner that separating would benefit both people. The second approach was 'take a break', used by about 24 percent of people. Here, the person ending the relationship suggests a temporary separation, allowing both parties to assess their feelings and decide if the relationship should continue. The least common approach was 'avoid confrontation', used by roughly 16 percent of people, in which someone disappears or becomes distant until the relationship quietly ends. Nine breakup strategies 'Cold and distant' (gradually pulling away) 'Explain the reasons' (offering a direct and honest conversation) 'Ghosting' (disappearing with no notice) 'Take the blame' (ending the relationship while accepting responsibility) 'Have been unfaithful' (citing infidelity or interest in someone else) 'Take some time off' (requesting a break) 'See you as a friend' (offering friendship) 'We'd be better off apart' (explaining that separation is best) 'Avoid ending it face to face' (using a phone call or text) 'Most people will experience the end of an intimate relationship - usually several times - with either themselves or their partners initiating it,' study author Professor Menelaos Apostolou told PsyPost. 'Because this phenomenon is relatively common and painful, I was motivated to ask how people actually do so, which the current research aimed to address. 'The most preferred one is 'Soften the blow,' involving explaining the breakup reasons, taking responsibility, and convincing the partner that separation is beneficial for both.' Further analysis of how personality traits were linked to strategy choice found a few significant links – mainly that people who had higher levels of agreeableness were less likely to use the 'cold and distant' approach. People with higher levels of psychopathy, however, were more likely to blame their partner for the breakup, the study, published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences, revealed. Katy Perry has uploaded a very telling post to as she shared a glimpse into her 'life purpose' following her split from Orlando Bloom. The US pop star, 40, re-shared a video to her Instagram Stories from a content creator who teaches followers the 'Laws of the Universe' to help them 'heal your life'. She claimed a person's purpose in life is determined by the phase of the moon on the day of their birth, with Katy indicating her purpose is to start 'new chapters'. 'The phase of the moon that was during your date of birth determines your purpose,' the video explained. According to Katy's birthday, 25 October 1984, she was born on a Waning Crescent. 'If you were born on a waning crescent, you are here to complete the mission that you feel,' the clip claimed. 'You are ending things that no longer serve the collective. You are setting the new stone for new chapters. You are here to save people.' Meanwhile, Orlando Bloom enjoyed a frisky night with a mystery woman at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish pre-wedding party in Italy on Thursday. The newly-minted bachelor, 47, was spotted leaving the Madonna dell Orto cloisters with a glamorous brunette after guests were forced to end the night early following a freak thunderstorm in Venice. WHEN YOU SHOULD BREAK UP WITH YOUR PARTNER Kale Monk, assistant professor of human development and family science at University of Missouri says on-off relationships are associated with higher rates of abuse, poorer communication and lower levels of commitment. People in these kinds of relationships should make informed decisions about either staying together once and for all or terminating their relationship. Here are his top five tips to work out whether it's the right time to end your relationship – 1. When considering rekindling a relationship that ended or avoiding future breakups, partners should think about the reasons they broke up to determine if there are consistent or persistent issues impacting the relationship. 2. Having explicit conversations about issues that have led to break ups can be helpful, especially if the issues will likely reoccur. If there was ever violence in the relationship, however, or if having a conversation about relationship issues can lead to safety concerns, consider seeking support-services when it is safe to do so. 3. Similar to thinking about the reasons the relationship ended, spend time thinking about the reasons why reconciliation might be an option. Is the reason rooted in commitment and positive feelings, or more about obligations and convenience? The latter reasons are more likely to lead down a path of continual distress. 4. Remember that it is okay to end a toxic relationship. For example, if your relationship is beyond repair, do not feel guilty leaving for your mental or physical well-being. 5. Couples therapy or relationship counselling is not just for partners on the brink of divorce. Even happy dating and married couples can benefit from 'relationship check-ups' in order to strengthen the connection between partners and have additional support in approaching relationship transitions.

Richard Flanagan: ‘When I reread Evelyn Waugh's Scoop it had corked badly'
My earliest reading memoryMy mother reading Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows to me – and reading it again and again, because I loved it and her. I was perhaps three. We lived in a little mining town in the middle of the rainforest. It was always raining and the rain drummed on the tin roof. To this day that's the sound I long to hear when I relax into a book – a voice in the stormy dark reminding me that I am not alone. My favourite book growing upBooks were an odyssey in which I lost and found myself, with new favourites being constantly supplanted by fresh astonishments. Rather than a favourite book I had a favourite place: the local public library. I enjoyed an inestimable amount of trash, beginning with comics and slowly venturing out into penny dreadful westerns and bad science fiction and on to the wonderfully lurid pulp of Harold Robbins, Henri Charrière, Alistair MacLean and Jackie Collins, erratically veering towards the beckoning mysteries of the adult world. The book that changed me as a teenagerAlbert Camus's The Outsider. It didn't offer a Damascene revelation, though. I was 11. I absorbed it like you might absorb an unexploded cluster bomb. The writer who changed my mindWhen I was 27, working as a doorman for the local council, counting exhibition attenders, I read in ever more fevered snatches Kafka's Metamorphosis, which I had to keep hidden beneath the table where I sat, balanced on my knees. A close family forsaking their son because he has turned into a giant cockroach, after the death of which they marvel at their daughter's vitality and looks? It dawned on me that writing could do anything and if it didn't try it was worth nothing. Beneath that paperback was a notebook with the beginnings of my first novel. I crossed it out and began again. The book that made me want to be a writerNo book, but one writer suggested it might be possible for me – so far from anywhere – that I perhaps too could be a writer. And that was William Faulkner. He seemed, well, Tasmanian. I later discovered that in Latin America he seemed Latin American and in Africa, African. He is also French. Yet he never left nor forsook his benighted home of Oxford, Mississippi, but instead made it his subject. Some years ago I was made an honorary citizen of Faulkner's home town. I felt I had come home. The book or author I came back toWhen I was young, Thomas Bernhard seemed an astringent, even unpleasant taste. But perhaps his throatless laughter, his instinctive revulsion when confronted with power and his incantatory rage speak to our times. The book I rereadMost years, Bohumil Hrabal's Too Loud A Solitude, humane and deeply funny; and Anna Karenina, every decade or so, over the passage of which time I discover mad count Lev has again written an entirely different and even more astounding novel than the one I read last time. The book I could never read againOn being asked to talk in Italy on my favourite comic novel I reread Evelyn Waugh's Scoop. It had corked badly. My fundamental disappointment was with myself, as if I had just lost an arm or a leg, and if I simply looked around it would turn back up. It didn't. The book I discovered later in lifeGreat stylists rarely write great novels. Marguerite Duras, for me a recent revelation, was an exception. For her, style and story were indivisible. Her best books are fierce, sensual, direct – and yet finally mysterious. I have also just read all of Carys Davies's marvellous novels, which deserve a much larger readership. The book I am currently readingKonstantin Paustovsky's memoir The Story of a Life, in which the author meets a poor but happy man in the starving Moscow of 1918 who has a small garden. 'There are all sorts of ways to live. You can fight for freedom, you can try to remake humanity or you can grow tomatoes.' God gets Genesis. History gets Lenin. Literature gets the tomato-growers.

Footy star James Tedesco and his pregnant wife step out with their adorable baby daughter as he leads his team's amazing turnaround
NRL star James Tedesco and his wife Maria were spotted enjoying a family day this week at Sydney's Taronga Zoo with their daughter Rosie - as they also prepare to bring a second child into the world. The outing comes as Tedesco, 32, has been in scintillating form for the Roosters as they continue to climb the ladder with finals looming. 'Teddy' has been so impressive that calls have increased for the fullback to return to the representative arena with NSW - but the man himself knows incumbent Dylan Edwards will be near impossible to dislodge. 'Last year was probably hard... it was a bit awkward for me to watch,' Tedesco said on Nine's Freddy and the Eighth podcast. 'I'd been there since 2016, not missed a game, so it was a bit weird for this year I felt really relaxed. I wasn't expecting to play Origin. 'I knew they'd go with Dyl (Edwards) who's playing some great footy.' As he approaches the twilight of his footy career - at least in the NRL - Tedesco is enjoying his life balance. 'I got married (in 2023) and had kids, and now my life revolves around my family,' he said. 'I can't wait to come home and see my little daughter. She runs up, gives me a hug and honestly it doesn't get much better than that. 'I can't wait to keep growing my family.' Tedesco won't have to wait long - his wife Maria is having another girl, due in August. After making his NRL debut with the Wests Tigers in 2012, Tedesco has won two premierships with the Roosters and established himself as one of the code's greatest ever fullbacks. And on Thursday night when in commentary for Triple M during the Panthers and Bulldogs clash at Commbank Stadium, Tedesco effectively predicted the future. 'The more and more this game goes on, Nathan Cleary's going to have a bigger impact, so we'll see what happens,' he told listeners. Seconds later Bulldogs five-eighth Matt Burton had a kick charged down by the Panthers playmaker, who regathered and scored. 'Oh here it is, Cleary,' he said as the moment unfolded.
