Restaurant Review: Gatsby Dubai
Step into the roaring twenties Dubai style Glamour, drama, and all that jazz. Gatsby Dubai is rewriting the rules of dinner and a show. Set high above Palm Jumeirah on the rooftop of Nakheel Mall, this electric supper club takes inspiration from the opulence of the 1920s and cranks it up to full-throttle. With dazzling performances, decadent dishes, and a party vibe that doesn't quit, Gatsby is where the night begins…and never really ends. The Spot Perched atop Nakheel Mall on the Palm, Gatsby Dubai isn't just a dinner spot, it's a full-blown spectacle. Inspired by the wild spirit of the Roaring Twenties, it's where velvet, drama, and deep house beats collide. Think dinner party meets fever dream with sequins, spotlights, and seriously good food in the mix. The Vibe From the moment you step in, Gatsby is a full-blown sensory experience, glamorous, high-energy, and completely unfiltered. As you dine, themed live shows light up the room, with dancers shifting from Antonio Vivaldi's Four Seasons to Britney Spears Baby One More Time and Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees. No two performances are the same, and every one is electric. Like the anthem goes: a little party never killed nobody, and Gatsby Dubai delivers on that promise, night after night. The Food and Drinks It's not just a party, the kitchen takes itself seriously too. The menu walks the line between indulgent and elevated. Start with the beef carpaccio or the creamy burrata, both crowd-pleasers. The roasted baby chicken is tender and flavourful, while the Mediterranean-style seabass is light, fresh, and beautifully plated. Every guest enjoys a full dining experience: starter, main, dessert, and drinks. Cocktails are as dramatic as the venue, punchy, playful, and always photogenic. The Service Sharp, seamless, and perfectly paced. Dishes and drinks are served in between performances so you're never interrupted during a show, just relaxed, present, and ready for every act. It's a well-choreographed experience, where service flows with the rhythm of the night. What to Order • Beef carpaccio • La burrata • Roasted baby chicken • Mediterranean-style seabass • A bold cocktail (or three) trust the bartender's recommendations What's On the Bill Expect a minimum spend of Dhs400 per person for premium central tables with direct stage views. It's a night out designed to be memorable, and worth it if you're here for the full show. The Final Say What's On Verdict: Gatsby is more than a restaurant, it's a high-octane night out wrapped in sequins and sound. Come for the food, stay for the madness. No rules, no curfews, just unforgettable nights on repeat. Location: Gatsby Dubai, West Rooftop, Nakheel Mall, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Times: Thurs to Sun, 9pm to 3am Contact: (04) 554 9418 | @gatsbydubaiofficial Reservations: Recommended Images: Supplied

'Pink Slip' From 'Freaky Friday' Just Performed At Disneyland, And I'm A Moody Teen Again
Okay, so you know about the absolute phenomenon that is Freaky Friday. Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan play Tess and Anna Coleman, a dysfunctional mother-daughter duo who end up switching bodies in a freak incident, and are forced to live each other's lives. A damn classic. There's so much to love about this 2003 film: the story, the performances, Chad Michael Murray's terrible rendition of Baby One More Time. But another thing that makes this film truly iconic is Anna's garage band, Pink Slip, and this banger: To refresh your memory, the song is Take Me Away. Watching this film at a time when being in a band was considered the epitome of coolness was something else. We all wanted to be a part of Pink Slip, because this song goes HARD. I mean, just look at them! The song, originally by the Australian alternative/punk rock band, Lash, was turned into a cover by Christina Vidal for Freaky Friday. We know and love Christina as Maddie, Anna's BFF. Recently, a sequel to the film was announced. Freakier Friday, with our favorite duo, releases August 8th. You can check out the trailer here. Of course, Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson of Pink Slip are part of the sequel; as is our beloved Chad Michael Murray. But the new cast members— Lucille Soong, Stephen Tobolowsky, Rosalind Chao, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Manny Jacinto, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan—are incredible! On July 17th—Disneyland's 70th birthday—the cast (minus Lindsay Lohan) made an appearance at the Disneyland resort. In a vlog uploaded by YouTube channel Mouse Vibes, we see the new cast come out and greet eager fans. Addressing the crowd, Jamie Lee Curtis says: "But the thing that makes this movie truly rock, is a particular OG band..." "...so without further ado, it is my thrill to be able to introduce to you, Pink Slip!" The band sang Take Me Away as the crowd roared. I too sang along, sitting at my computer and headbanging, lyrics at the tip of my tongue like muscle memory. Mouse Vibes / Via Walt Disney Studios / Via I could watch that scene a million times and not be bored. Disneyland shared a snippet of this event on Instagram, and naturally, our millennial hearts couldn't take it. And of course, Lindsay Lohan was terribly missed. Instagram: @disneystudios Well, I'm just grateful for moments like these, because they take me back to a simpler time. The only thing I wanted back then was to look as cool as Maddie, Anna, and Peg, crushing it on the guitar or on the mic. And I can't wait for Freakier Friday to be out! Here's the full vlog by Mouse Vibes:

Collectors are snapping up anything and everything at auctions — like the ruby slippers from ‘Wizard of Oz' for $32M
Bidding baubles adieu With NYC's housing market warmer than Diddy's sex drive, and so many buying and selling homes, I decided to talk with Heritage Auctions' President Greg Rohan. He told me: 'Asia's market is running hot. Wealth is created now in China and throughout Asia. We opened a Heritage office in Tokyo six months ago. With pop culture, urban art, wine, jewelry, it's doing phenomenal. 'We sold Elton John's piano for $900,000. 'Wizard of Oz' ruby slippers went for $32 million! 'Sometimes it's an antique effect. History buffs. One collects coins, stamps, another baseball cards. A feeling of accomplishment. Making more money, they put sets together. Return to what they collected as a child. 'There's the social aspect. Art — it's meeting people with similar interests. Travel with them, wine and dine with them. It becomes their social life. 'Heritage started 49 years ago. Rare coins. We were the first company out there.' People unloading their homes now, what should they know? 'Furniture's coming back. My tips would be: Don't sell to someone outright. Get a couple of opinions.'

No need to thank me for this advance information. Falling for a reunion If you're not a collector, pay attention. Whilst stuffing in Fresco by Scotto's zucchini chips appetizer, Sherri Shepherd and Carrie Preston — who long back worked on short-lived 'Emeril' — are back. Try catching them this fall on CBS's Season 3 of 'Elsbeth.' The world's getting smaller. The Near East is too near. And the Far East isn't far enough.

Tess Daly admits she will be a 'wreck' when major family change happens Strictly Come Dancing co-host Tess Daly has opened up about her family life and admitted that she will be a 'wreck' when one big thing happens with her kids Tess Daly (Image: Stuart Wilson/BAFTA, Getty Images for BAFTA ) Strictly Come Dancing's Tess Daly has opened her heart about an emotional family matter, confessing she'll be a "wreck" when one thing eventually happens. Having risen to fame on Strictly, it was due to one of her first roles in TV that she met Vernon Kay back in 2001. During the early phases of their broadcasting careers, both Tess and Vernon met at a BBC Christmas party, where they were tasked with making their own version of Britney Spears' iconic "…Baby One More Time" video. Just a couple of years after first meeting, the couple went on to marry, and only a year later, they welcomed their first daughter, Phoebe. Their family grew once more in 2008 when they had Amber, their second daughter. Tess and Vernon first met in 2001 (Image: Dave Benett,) Meanwhile, in a recent episode of Fearne Cotton's Happy Place podcast, she shared how her busy schedule often means she has to book family holidays quite last minute. Article continues below Chatting about the importance of taking time away from their packed lives, Tess shared how she couldn't "even imagine" a holiday where she only had herself to think about. However, as Fearne noted that Tess will soon be approaching a time when her children may no longer want to come on family holidays, Tess admitted she'll be a "wreck" when that day comes — but joked, 'I'll be crying into my Pina Colada."

More info Strictly Come Dancing's co-presenter Tess Daly shared an emotional family revelation, confessing she'll be a "wreck" when facing a certain milestone. While many will know her for starring in Strictly, it was thanks to one of her first TV roles that she and Vernon crossed paths nearly 25 years ago. Early in their presenting careers, the couple first met at a BBC Christmas party, where they were tasked with creating their own music video to Britney Spears' iconic "…Baby One More Time". Just a couple of years after meeting, Tess and Vernon tied the knot and soon welcomed their first child, Phoebe, with Amber born a few years later in 2008.

As the pair discussed the importance of switching off and taking time away from their busy lives, Tess said she couldn't "even imagine" a break where she only had herself to think about. Yet amidst talk of changing family dynamics, Tess humorously acknowledged she'd be a "wreck" when her kids no longer wanted to come on holidays, quipping, "I'll be crying into my Pina Colada." (Image: Dave Benett, Dave Benett/ Getty Images for Gin & Juice by Dre and Snoop) Keeping this in perspective, the Strictly co-host also highlighted the importance of holidays for quality time with loved ones, remarking: "For me, it's just about stepping back, really, and just enjoying myself and being in the moment and enjoying that meal." She added: "Sitting down to enjoy that with my family, reconnecting with them and sitting around a table three times a day, for me, is a treat. It's lovely." Starting her career as a model, she took her first steps into presenting on Channel 4 back in 2000. Though other hosting gigs soon came her way, it was her breakthrough as a co-host on Strictly Come Dancing in 2004 that truly elevated her career. (Image: Karwai Tang, WireImagevia Getty Images) Having appeared on the show from the very first episode alongside Bruce Forsyth, the two co-presented together for nearly a decade until Bruce left in 2013.
