Just months ago, Demi capped off a stellar career comeback by being named Glamour’s Woman of the Year.
She was interviewed by her Substance co-star Margaret Qualley for the mag and said: “With everything I’ve been through, which has been a lot, I wouldn’t trade where I am today.”
She added a difference with her younger self is the “freedom to know I don’t have to have the answer, and life is not going to be completely stolen from me if I somehow don’t know”.
The actress has battled countless traumas and rejections during her life – including her biological dad leaving before she was born, saving her drug addicted mum from suicide, two spells in rehab and being raped aged 15.
The star of Ghost, Indecent Proposal and A Few Good Men’s return to form in the satirical horror movie The Substance is one of the greatest Hollywood comebacks of all time.
Having struggled to land a hit movie over the past couple of decades, Demi thought “this was it.”
In her speech, Demi said: “In those moments when we don’t think we’re smart enough, or pretty enough, or skinny enough, or are basically just not enough, I had a woman say to me, ‘Just know you will never be enough but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick.’”
Demi didn’t follow up her win by bagging an Oscar, that award went to Mikey Madison, however she wasn’t upset by it.
She told Time: “I didn’t feel gutted.
“I didn’t feel any of those kinds of things.
“I just trusted, and am in trust of, whatever is going to unfold.”
She is set to present an award at this year’s ceremony on March 15 in LA, alongside other A-list talent lie Javier Bardem, Adrien Brody and Zoe Saldaña.

At the Royal Festival Hall she wore a figure-hugging red satin gown with a silhouetted cape and a fan-like neckline for the ultimate sexy senorita look.
Maura’s career is on the up and she’s been making big waves in America.
The 35-year-old hosts the Love IslandUSA spin-off show Aftersun and is in the final of Celebrity Traitors, where she struck up a friendship with Real Housewife Lisa Rinna.
She recently attended an event celebrating Lisa’s new book, You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It.
The former reality TV bombshell, who shot to fame in 2019 with her razor-sharp one-liners and no-filter flirting, is fast becoming a US sensation.
While his relationship drama played out publicly, trolls piled into Maura online, landing the blame firmly at her door.
For a short while, she went quiet — but instead of retreating, she soon landed a spot on The Traitors US, which is hosted by actor Alan Cumming.
And what looked like a reputational wobble in the UK has since become a full-blown American reinvention.
A source said: “When the Traitors came knocking, she knew it could turn things around for her. Maura jumped straight into action. She was a woman who had something to prove.”
After filming wrapped on the US series at Ardross Castle in Scotland last June, Maura walked away feeling confident that she had smashed it, according to pals.
She has now signed up with top-tier agency Align PR, whose clients include Madonna and Hollywood stars Matthew McConaughey and Bryce Dallas Howard.
She has even been doing some acting herself, landing a role in an Irish buddy movie, The Spin, due to be released later this month.

Oliver “Power” Grant, the close Wu-Tang Clan affiliate who oversaw the group’s enormously popular Wu Wear fashion line, has died. He was 52.
Grant’s death was confirmed by social media posts from several Wu-Tang members including Method Man, who wrote “Paradise my Brother safe Travels!!” under a post of the two together.
“We couldn’t have done it without him,” GZA wrote in his own post. “Wu wouldn’t have come to fruition without Power. His passing is a profound loss to us all.”
The group members’ posts did not cite a cause of death. The news was first reported by outlets including Okayplayer and Hot 97.
Grant, a childhood friend of Wu-Tang co-founder RZA’s older brother, was a crucial figure in the sprawling New York hip-hop collective’s ascent. Though he was not a performing member of the group, he helped raise capital for early recording sessions and structured Wu-Tang’s finances and record deals — no small feat for a collective with such a vast archipelago of group and solo projects.
“We knew that if a brother got a deal for 150k, he could keep the majority of it, but it also would facilitate and help the other brothers,” he told Passion of the Weiss in 2011. “It was part of our core and movement for us to spread the money around and help brothers eat, without a project out. It was like we were trust fund babies.”
His work set a precedent for autonomy and creative control as hip-hop became a commercial juggernaut in the ’90s.
“Everything that we learned was hard knock life, you figure it out as you go along, and take cues from those that are actively doing things,” he said. “I wasn’t a rapper, but the thrill of being a part of going and where they went, it was the inspiration for how it ended up that lead us all to going back, soaking up what we’d absorbed and coming back with ‘Protect Ya Neck.’”
He was also the driving force behind Wu Wear, the group’s wildly popular fashion line that netted tens of millions in revenue and became a fixture of ’90s hip-hop iconography. The line was later revamped as Wu-Tang Brand, and relaunched as Wu Wear in 2017. He also had cameos as an actor alongside Method Man in the 1998 hip-hop classic “Belly” and 1999’s “Black and White,” and served as an executive producer for the group’s many LPs.
WHEN it comes to having A-list siblings, these two nepo-sisters are at the top of their game.

Can you guess who this aspiring model’s famous sister is?Credit: GettyThis nepo-sister has started a career as a model and was spotted at the Burberry party at London fashion WeekCredit: GettyThis stunning woman also has a huge pop star for a sisterCredit: GettyThis nepo-sister was spotted at several London Fashion Week eventsCredit: Getty
The nepo-sisters in question are Rita Ora‘s sister Elena, 37, and Dua Lipa‘s little sis Rina, 24,
The pair were spotted posing for the cameras at London Fashion Week.
Dua’s sister Rina looked chic in white trousers and a striking turquoise jacket.
The aspiring model was spotted at the after party for the Burberry 2026 show.
Meanwhile, Rita’s big sister Elena looked stunning in a black cut-away dress at the Royal Ascot Millinery Collective, which was held at posh hotel, Claridge’s.
At another London Fashion Week event earlier in the week, she looked equally incredible in a black and gold dress.
Elena works as Rita’s talent manager, creative director, and business partner.
The pair are extremely close, and the popstar involves her big sister in every aspect of her life.
Rita was just a year old when her parents moved her and three-year-old Elena to the UK to escape persecution in Kosovo.
But the pair have gone onto become a sibling powerhouse.

Rita has had Elena by her side since she shot to fame in 2012.
Elena previously said that her little sister’s success is a “team celebration” for both of them, as she has been such a big part of her fame.
“I get as proud of the success as Rita does. But I guess the public only sees her reaction to it,” Elena told Idris and Sabrina Elba on the Coupledom podcast, when she chatted to them in 2021 with Rita.
“It feels like a team thing. Obviously the public just sees Rita, but to us that’s just how it is, you know?”

Rita added: “Elena is really good at protecting me. I think that is so important in this industry.”
Together the sisters have negotiated movie roles, fashion brand deals and lucrative TV contracts.
But the sisters admitted on the podcast that there has often been a battle for Elena to be taken seriously.
“It’s really tough in such a male dominated industry to really stand up for yourselves and navigate this s**t,” Rita candidly admitted.

“What do they expect people in power to look like? There’s not an identity.”
Continuing, proud sister Rita said of Elena:“But she’s never lost her cool. She’s always kept it very together.” Rita says she has always had the same trusted people around her in her career.
“I try to keep my team very small. I don’t really like change. That’s why I’ve had the same team for over 10 years. If it’s not broke, don’t fix it.”

The rising star has done well for herself and has already worked with fashion houses like Miu Miu and Versace.
The model has also walked the runway at the prestigious Milan Fashion Week.
Rina has also set her sights on becoming an actress.

Speaking about going on auditions, she told Nylon: “There’s something about walking into the room and saying, ‘Hi, nice to meet you,’ and having that energy and that aura and that little repertoire between people.
“You can leave feeling like you had a connection if you walk in and you’re a bit bubbly and you are happy to be there. I’m really happy to do really fun auditions. Even if I don’t get the job, that’s absolutely fine.”
Rina got her first taste of fame when her big sister pulled her and their younger brother Gjin up on stage at the Brit Awards.
It came in 2018, when the singer won the Best Female Solo Artist gong and invited her siblings to join her accepting the award,
Speaking to Off Set about the sweet moment, Dua said: “I didn’t even know what I was gonna say onstage and I was like, ‘Come with me! You two — with me.
“They were so terrified. When we got offstage, my little brother and sister were like, ‘Why did you do that to us?’ ”
“They were like, ‘We love you, but that’s crazy. Don’t do that one again.;”

One of the rarer football fashion choices is that of tracksuit bottoms, which goalkeepers are allowed to wear.
They are among the game’s more retro fashion choices, though former Crystal Palace No 1 Gabor Kiraly famously wore them throughout his career.
“I’m a goalie, not a model,” he once said. “I’ve played on clay or grass that’s been frozen in winter; it makes your legs hurt when you fall so jogging bottoms seemed obvious.”
Former Manchester United goalkeeper Massimo Taibi wore tracksuit bottoms during his short stint at Old Trafford, while former Colombia keeper Rene Higuita was wearing them while making his famous scorpion-kick save against England in 1995.
KATE Moss led the glamour at Burberry’s star-studded show, as she joined big names at London Fashion Week’s show-piece event.
The model, 52, turned heads in a black Burberry trench coat and shiny navy dress while showing off her endless legs in sheer black tights.

The supermodel was joined by Romeo Beckham, 23, who rocked a maroon bomber-style jacket paired with loose-fitting maroon corduroy trousers.
The exclusive show was also attended by Aston Villa forward Morgan Rogers, 23, Arsenal women’s team footballer Leah Williamson, 28, and actress Daisy Edgar-Jones, 27.
Liam Gallagher‘s sons Lennon and Gene Gallagher also made an appearance.
But it was Kate’s look that sent tongues wagging – with the star dominating headlines during fashion week with her glamorous looks.
Concerns were raised by Kate over her neighbour’s plans to install a new garden.
She lives in a £2.5 million countryside mansion in Little Faringdon, Oxfordshire, where locals say they have been fighting with a sewage system that is no longer fit for purpose.
It is because of the sewage system that Kate has blocked her neighbours’ planned construction project.
According to reports, she fears the plans would increase pressure on the already struggling sewage system.

American star Mikaela Shiffrin cemented her status as the greatest alpine skier of all time as she won Olympic slalom gold in emphatic fashion.
Twelve years on from winning the title in Sochi aged 18, Shiffrin stormed to victory with an overall time of 1:39:10, a significant 1.50 seconds ahead of second place to become a three-time Olympic champion.
The 30-year-old put herself in pole position with a time of 47.13 seconds in the first run, a gap of 0.82 seconds to second-place Lena Duerr.
The German was the only skier to finish within one second of Shiffrin but she straddled the first gate on her second run to put herself out of medal contention.
That left Shiffrin with what was ultimately an exhibition run to take gold and she completed the run in 51.97 seconds.
Switzerland’s Camille Rast won silver while Sweden’s Anna Swenn Larsson took bronze.
He is returning to host the ceremony for a sixth time and has promised to have a good laugh at celebs’ expense.

Jack said: “ I used to think more about upsetting people, or people taking issue with some of the jokes.
“Now, I’d be disappointed if they didn’t take any offence and if everyone went, ‘Oh yeah, your hosting was great. We loved all of it’.
“If that happened, I would think, ‘Oh, I failed’.”
As for his pre-show routine ahead of the ceremony at Manchester’s Co-op Live on February 28, he said: “I lock myself in a toilet, and try to hide from all of the people banging down the dressing room door trying to get me to change lines from my monologue, or tweak introductions.”
CARDI B sparked speculation that she has split from American footballer Stefon Diggs – after they unfollowed each other on Instagram.
And it could be a double heartbreak for Stefon, who Cardi had a baby with last year.
MARGOT ROBBIE dodged the notorious wild and windy moorland weather when shooting Wuthering Heights in Yorkshire.
In fact, she found quite the opposite – and got a tan.
The Aussie actress, who appears opposite Jacob Elordi, said she was peeved that the weather was too pleasant while filming there last spring.
Margot admitted: “It was very sunny and warm, which is exactly what we didn’t need.
“We went out there for the mist and the rain and the blustery weather.
“But it was unseasonably warm – blue skies every day for two weeks straight.
“We were like, ‘We came here for misery’.
“Instead, we had a summer holiday.
“I honestly went and got a tan.
“We had to lighten my make-up because I was looking more tanned than I had for the rest of the movie.”
But she still soaked up the local culture, and told Greg James on his Radio 1 show they headed to the pub after filming each day.
Scary’s top of the spots

Showing her support for the look, Spice Girls bandmate Emma Bunton said: “Gorgeous.”
Mel missed a Spice Girls reunion at Emma’s birthday last month, and wasn’t there for the video which Cruz Beckham shared last week of the other four members singing together.
Despite missing the previous meet-ups, I’m told Mel is keen to get back together with Emma, Mel C, Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell-Horner.
But with their 30th anniversary in June rapidly approaching, they had better pull their fingers out.

Lucky Maura was flown out to California by Primark to attend the Super Bowl.
But one event she might not be in a hurry to attend is this year’s Brit Awards.

Best behaviour this year then Maura?
It only takes three decades, girl
