Fresh blow for Vogue and Spencer Matthews as they're forced to slash £1.3 MILLION off their posh South London flat
VOGUE Williams and Spencer Matthews have been forced to slash the price of their luxury South London flat by £1.3million. The TV star couple have been hit with the fresh blow after failing to sell the property in more than a year. 8 8 8 8 Vogue and Spencer had first listed the apartment for £5.25million after deciding to say goodbye to the city for a new life in Dublin. But with it still on the market earlier this year, they dropped the asking price to £4.7million. The swish four-bedroom property, which has a concierge and private gym, is now listed on property website Rightmove for £3,950,000. The price reduction comes despite Vogue, 39, and 36-year-old Spencer 's home having extensive features. There are two huge reception rooms, a private roof garden/terrace, a bar and in-house cinema/media room. The primary bedroom comes with an en-suite, with two more luxury bathrooms elsewhere in the property. Vogue and Spencer had first put their home on the market in early 2024 with the view to snapping up a bigger property in Ireland for their three children – Theodore, Gigi and Otto – to grow up in. Hailing from Ireland herself, Vogue has always had a house there and the couple also own a home in Jersey. During their reality TV show, Spencer, Vogue and Baby Too, Vogue didn't hide her desire to raise her family back on the green isle. She also told Mail Online in 2023 how she had put their Irish property up for sale as they had found their dream home in Howth, Dublin. Vogue Williams showcases major home updates Vogue said at the time: 'It's where I grew up, it's the only place I'd want to live in Dublin, it's by the sea, and when you're working all the time in London, it's nice to go back there. 'It's the kind of place that our family can just be in forever. "I suppose you'll always feel like that but it's such a beautiful house, it's just slightly small as our kids are getting bigger, and our family is kind of expanding." Vogue and Spencer's property plight comes after they were forced to deny repeated rumours that their marriage was in trouble. The couple tied the knot seven years ago and Vogue was left furious after the whispers failed to go away. Setting the record straight in March, she fumed: "It's with great sadness that I have to let you know that Spen and I are NOT breaking up! "I usually avoid addressing baseless and cruel rumours but this just keeps coming up." Vogue posted her fiery rant alongside a carousel of images showing herself and Spencer looking seriously loved up. She went on to insist that rumours of a marriage breakdown were "absolutely not true", adding: "More importantly I don't want my children hearing these lies in the playground." Vogue concluded: "We're not sure what the angle is or where it's coming from but the whole thing feels very strange and mean. "We're very happily married and in love and I hope posting the truth on my own platform might make it stop." 8 8 8

Move over Britney Spears! There's a new pop queen in town dancing in her bra and underwear
Addison Rae performed during the Spotify release party at The Box in New York City on Thursday. The blonde wore a nude-toned bra and underwear as she belted out her new tunes with backup dancers around her on stage. Rae has served up a dreamy pop album flaunting her 'sensual and sexual' personality. The 24-year-old social media star has released her long-awaited self-titled debut studio effort featuring the hit singles Diet Pepsi and Aquamarine. She told Variety of the feelings she wanted to purvey: 'We definitely didn't reference anything making this album. It was always me trying to provoke a feeling from a song or from music. 'I'm a very sensual and sexual person. I'm very intimate with myself and my body, and everything kind of reflects that. Everything feels very personal.' Addison also shared that having her debut album produced entirely by women was 'really special'. The singer said working with Luka Kloser and Elvira on the record was 'beautiful and magical'. She explained: 'I have something really special with these girls. It feels really beautiful and magical that it is just all females. 'I never set out for it to be that way, I think because it's not very common and you almost don't get that opportunity very much to work with just females in a room.' While she has been labelled the latest 'It girl' in pop, Addison admitted she is wary of the praise. She said: 'It is obviously very complimentary. What does that even mean, really, to be the pop girl? Let's see if the songs get more popular, then they can call me a pop girl. This is my shot. I've got to go big.' Meanwhile, Addison - who dropped her debut single Obsessed in 2023 - has spoken about how TikTok was the perfect launchpad for her career. She told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1: 'I think in the beginning, especially, and starting out, I always knew that I wanted to make music. I always knew I wanted to act. I think I just knew I wanted to perform. 'That was just something that was really obvious to me since I was a little girl. 'When TikTok happened, I was almost like, well, this seems like a really nice way to get myself to Los Angeles first, because I think in Louisiana there wasn't as many opportunities or like possibility, really, to pursue that profession necessarily, unless you just got really, really lucky.' Addison gained popularity with her dance videos on TikTok in 2019. And by March 2020, rapper The Kid Laroi caused a buzz when he released a song titled Addison Rae. Then she made her film debut in 2021's He's All That and released Obsessed two years later.

Music Review: On Addison Rae's 'Addison,' a new pop powerhouse is born
The pop album of the summer is here. Addison Rae's debut, 'Addison,' is full, stuffed with bejeweled, hypnotic pop songs for the post-'BRAT' crowd. Hedonism has a new hero. For those who've watched her rise, it's almost impossible to believe. It wasn't so long ago – almost exactly a year into the COVID-19 pandemic – that a young Rae went on 'The Tonight Show' and taught its host Jimmy Fallon a few stiff, meme-able TikTok dance moves, then what made up the bulk of her career. It was met with almost immediate backlash, as is common for young women with viral posts. But she wielded it like a weapon: Social media celebrity begat acting roles for Rae, then a coveted collaboration with Charli XCX in the form of a 'Von Dutch' remix, and now, at age 24, her final form: becoming the hyper-ambitious, hyper-femme pop star for the current moment. As a full body of work, 'Addison' taps into the genre-agnostic zeitgeist, where pop music appears edgy and elastic. The songs speak for themselves, from the pitch-shifted trip-hop 'Headphones On' and the snapped percussion, minor chords, NSFW lyrics and vanishing synths of 'High Fashion' to the Madonna'Ray of Light'-cosplay 'Aquamarine' atop a house beat and its chantable, spoken chorus: 'The world is my oyster / Baby, come touch the pearl / The world is my oyster / And I'm the only girl.' Humor and girlhood are intertwined with less of a Sabrina Carpenter-wink and more of cheery irony. ' Money loves me,' she yells on 'Money Is Everything.' 'I'm the richest girl in the world!' Then, a giggle and a kiss. ('Girl,' to this writer's count, is uttered 20 times across the album. Across its 12 tracks, she is both the divine feminine and the girl next door. Often, they are one in the same.) Rae isn't reinventing the wheel here, but she is carefully pulling from her inspirations. Her story recalls Britney Spears: The pair are from Louisiana, became famous young, and recorded their unique, sensual, layered pop music in Stockholm, Sweden, in and around super producer Max Martin. There's the earned Lana Del Rey parity, like in the 'Born to Die'-channeling 'Diet Pepsi,' echoes of Charli in the bouncy opener ' New York,' and tinges of ethereal Enya production on the dreamy 'Summer Forever.' For 'Addison,' Rae partnered with two primary collaborators – Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd, who goes simply by Elvira – an unusually small team for a major label pop release. But that intimacy is one of the album's superpowers, a sensibility that teeters between close mic recordings and big late-night anthems. In the latter case, look no further than 'Fame Is a Gun,' an easy song-of-the-summer contender, a sunglasses-in-the-club banger with synthetic vocal textures and an unignorable chorus. In the lead up to the release of 'Addison,' Rae has positioned her early TikTok fame as a means to an end. There aren't many avenues to Hollywood from Lafayette, Louisiana, and social media, for some, is a democratizing tool. Rae used her dance training to build a name for herself on the platform, something that has no doubt laid an ideal foundation for pop superstardom – just consider how Justin Bieber did something similar with covers on YouTube not so many years ago. It feels full circle, then, that Rae's stellar debut album aims to do what her videos on TikTok attempted to do, what she's always wanted to do — dance, and get others to dance, too.
