REALITY TV star Kim Kardashian takes wet-look fashion to a whole new level.

The 45-year-old went for a night-time dip in a haute-couture dress by the late Alexander McQueen.

But the gown, first modelled in 2003, appeared far from waterproof.

Seeing the photo on Instagram, sister Khloe said: “You are such a freak for being in that water at night. Are you well?”

Kim was in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to promote her Hulu drama All’s Fair.

Last month, The Sun revealed the reality star had brought out a Skims ‘Panties’ advent calendar which included 25 “luxury” pairs.

The price had raised eyebrows, setting shoppers back an eye-watering £476 ($450).

The lingerie advent calendar featured a cheeky image on the front, with the panties hidden behind 25 doors in the luxe packaging.

While many websites gave shoppers a sneak peek of what they can expect concealed inside, the Skims offering left it a complete surprise.

What we did know is there would be 25 styles across signature fabrics, including Fits Everybody, Cotton Jersey, Stretch Lace, and Ultra Fine Mesh.

The description on the Skims website read: “A limited-edition luxury: unwrap something special every day. 

“This premium advent calendar is filled with surprise panties to treat yourself all month long-because every day deserves a little SKIMS.”

JACOB ELORDI is gracing our screens once again, this time as the Creature in Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein – and it seems audiences can’t get enough of the Australian actor. 

According to Google Trends data, Elordi’s global search record charts an extraordinary rise from Netflix romcom newcomer to one of Hollywood’s most in-demand leading men.

Google Trends shows his career highs with clear spikes in search interest. 

His breakthrough role came in 2018 when he starred in Netflix’s The Kissing Booth, introducing him to Gen Z audiences around the world. 

The following year, he solidified his profile as Nate Jacobs in HBO’s Euphoria, a role that won critical acclaim and expanded his fanbase beyond romcom audiences.

But it’s in the past two years that Elordi’s popularity has skyrocketed. 

Searches for “Jacob Elordi” reached new global highs after the release of Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn in 2023.

It makes sense that all these projects are among the top 25 related searches – alongside relationship history, of course. 

Searches have surged again this fall, thanks to the release of Frankenstein.

Early reviews of the film have praised Elordi for his ability to combine vulnerability with intensity, showing he can tackle challenging characters. A million miles away from the character he played in The Kissing Booth. 

The data also shows that Elordi has international appeal. 

Early searches were mainly in Australia, the US and the UK. Recent trends show growing interest across Europe, Asia and South America, with his choice of roles boosting his global profile.

Elordi looks set to maintain his momentum with Wuthering Heights, scheduled for release in 2026, in which he will star opposite Margot Robbie. 

The casting is already sparking excitement, appealing to fans of classic literature as well as general moviegoers. 

Frankenstein audiences have been fascinated by how Elordi brings Mary Shelley’s iconic character to life. As Wuthering Heights is also a beloved literary classic, expectations are sky high. 

Literary fans will be watching closely, hoping for an adaptation that honors the original and doesn’t just appeal to Hollywood.

Each major appearance sparks a worldwide search spike, making Elordi a soon-to-be household name. 

He is a phenomenon whose every role – from Nate Jacobs to the Creature and, soon, Heathcliff – triggers global attention.

With Frankenstein out last month and Wuthering Heights on the horizon, one thing is certain: Elordi’s well on the way with his journey from teen heart-throb to Hollywood A-lister.

BRIDGERTON’S Simone Ashley is in pole position to feature in the sequel to Brad Pitt’s movie F1.

The 30-year-old, who starred with Jonathan ­Bailey in the Netflix romance, was cast in this year’s flick but her scenes were cut.

A source said: “A script is already in the works with early plans to go into production next year.”

As well as appearing in Sex Education, Ashley has also lent her acting chops to suspense drama Thriller.

She shot to fame after starring in the hit Netflix show Sex Education.

The star developed her acting skills at the Arts Ed school in Chiswick, which specializes in Musical Theatre & Acting degrees.

Simone has spoken about coming from a traditional Indian family, who finds her acting career “quite scary and unsettling”.

She told Veylex: “My parents are incredibly protective over me, and sometimes I found it quite stifling.

“It made me want to escape and do things my own way. I’ve always been a bit rebellious in that sense.”

“I am incredibly privileged to be apart of a generation where young women from all over the world have more opportunity than ever before, where we are being less stereotyped and walls and being broken down slowly.”
