When Ed Sheeran and Bring Me The Horizon opened the BRIT Awards last week with a metal version of ‘Bad Habits’ I think everyone watching – every single one – immediately screamed, “What about Cradle Of Filth?!”After all, the extreme metal band were the first to talk about working on a heavy collaboration with Sheeran and it looked a little like they’d been sidelined for some more chart-friendly metallers. It’s alright though, Ed Sheeran can manage more than one riff partnership. Things are still at the discussion stage regarding the Cradle Of Filth collaboration though.“Ed’s expressed a desire to be part of a song, and we’re currently looking at some options, and that’s about as far as it’s got”, the band’s frontman Dani Filth tells Heavy Consequence.“The thing that interests me [is] the juxtaposition between what we do and what he does”, he adds.

Hollywood power couple Tom Holland and Zendaya, but fans were more enraptured in the Prince Harry 'lookalike' bodyguard in the background of one of the shots.Tom's bodyguard, who bears an uncanny resemblance to Meghan Markle's husband, stood behind the young Brit actor with his hand to the camera and a stern look on his face.He opted for an altogether more casual look than that which we're accustomed to seeing Harry where.The bodyguard donned a grey beanie hat, black puffer jacket, coordinating jeans and white trainers.Tom also opted for a casual look, donning a Prada hoodie, pulled over another burgundy hoodie, black jeans and white trainers.Instagram users came out in full force in the comments section to share their bewilderment over the doppelgänger bodyguard.One social networker remarked: "Is Prince Harry the bodyguard," followed by a laughing face emoji.While another continued: "Since when is Prince Harry doing security work?"A third added: "Why is Prince Harry behind him?"And a fourth said: "Dude, Harry is a bodyguard now? Rough times when you're no longer a royal."Zendaya also opted for a casual look, donning an oversized jumper and white skirt and black thigh-high boots.Tom and Zendaya have long been rumoured to be a couple, but it wasn't until July 2021 that the Spiderman co-stars confirmed they were an item.The pair had been friends for a long time before they became romantically involved thanks to working together on hugely popular Spiderman films – Homecoming, Far From Home – and undoubtedly their connection grew on latest film, No Way Home.In the franchise, Tom stars as Peter Parker, while Zendaya takes on the role of MJ, Parker's love interest.For more of the latest showbiz news from the Daily Star, make

London to Las Vegas and shared what it's really like stripping for a living.Both based in the UK, the best friends started their own podcast Strippers in the Attic (SITA) at the beginning of the pandemic.Now they have shared some industry secrets with the Daily Star.According to Buffy, one of the most prevalent beliefs is that strippers hate all men, which isn't the case.She said: "[Some people think] that the women are uneducated victims and that it’s a completely degrading superficial environment."While this may be some peoples experience in the industry, it’s certainly not been ours."Heaven said another misconception is that you earn loads of money every time you go to work."Often there are nights when you don’t make a penny. Another misconception is that all strippers are uneducated and have no other options," she said."Honestly some of the smartest, most inspiring, goal focussed women I have ever met have been strippers or sex workers at some point during their lives."No matter how much public opinion is changing, there are still people who judge those who choose to go into the profession.Heaven said she doesn't feel the need to defend stripping to people whose opinions she doesn't care about.That being said, Buffy shared some words of wisdom to highlight how hypocritical people's judgements are.“US professor Eric Sprankle said ‘if you think sex workers sell their bodies but coal miners don’t, your view of work is clouded by your moralistic view of sexuality',” she explained.“With actors Channing Tatum and Megan Prescott being open about the fact they have stripped at times I feel a lot less judgement than I did five or ten years ago.

tiny pockets that fit in jeans.The small pockets date all the way back to 1890, which is when they were stitched into Levi's 'waist overall' jeans.They used to be commonly used for pocket watches back then but seeing as not many people use pocket watches these days, it may seem a bit pointless they're still there.However, it's actually due to sentiment with regards to WWII. During this time the two corner rivets were removed as a way to conserve metal for the war effort and the rivets returned to the watch pocket after the war.To preserve the integrity of the early design, Levi Strauss & Co.
