Jack is as different from me as Daisy is," she insisted."Jack is [also] different from his dad.

Strictly Come Dancing’s 20th series, Helen has spoken about her delight at being matched with Spanish professional dancer Gorka, 32.The 39-year-old Countryfile presenter, who first tried her hand at Strictly when she took part in the Christmas Special back in 2012, said that from the start she wanted to be paired with Gorka, due to the fact that she is so close to his fiancé, actress and radio DJ Gemma Atkinson.Speaking to Express.co.uk about her reaction to being paired with Gorka, which Helen has had to keep hidden for several weeks, she said: “That was who we wanted.“Because I know Gemma, we've got loads of mutual friends.“And he lives not that far from me.”Living in close proximity to his Strictly partner is something that seems to be important for Gorka and more likely Gemma, as it means the pair, who are parents to two-year-old daughter Mia, can still spend as much time with each other as possible.Back in August of this year, former Emmerdale star Gemma, 37, opened up about the struggles of living alone after Gorka had to move away for work commitments.Speaking on her Instagram stories, which has amassed 1.8 million followers, Gemma explained how difficult it can be being a single parent, but went on to say how her family help her out."I'm extremely lucky because obviously Gorka works away a lot, but my mum and my stepdad are ten minutes down the road and my sister is half an hour away," Gemma said."But last week and this week I'm off work because they're on holiday, so I've literally [got] nothing and I've no one other than myself with Norm and Ollie [her two dogs] and Mia, and I'm only halfway through and I feel like I've been [explicit] around the head."Sharing her amazement for other mums in a similar position,

Warning: This post contains numerous spoilers about the ending of “Don’t Worry Darling.” Do not read unless you have seen the film. “Don’t Worry Darling” had plenty of publicity before it was released, from director Olivia Wilde’s remarks about Shia LaBeouf to the Harry Styles-Chris Pine “spitgate” incident and various other dramas. But through all the pre-opening drama, the film’s storyline stayed unknown. After the trailer premiered, audiences could see the premise was a “Stepford Wives”-like society where women had traditional roles in a sunny utopian society. Once viewers saw the film, they saw this story expanded as Florence Pugh’s Alice character begins to realize that something isn’t right in the placid community of Victory. But as events progress, it becomes a little harder to tell what’s really going on, and the ending has left more than a few filmgoers scratching their heads.

Lawyers for Dua Lipa have set out some key arguments for why one of the song theft lawsuits filed in relation to her 2020 hit ‘Levitating’ should be dismissed. Basically there is simply no evidence Dua Lipa and her collaborators had ever heard the two songs they are accused of ripping off.Because, yes, in the second of two copyright lawsuits targeting ‘Levitating’, plaintiffs L Russell Brown and Sandy Linze claimed that Lipa’s track actually lifted elements from two songs they wrote back in the day: 1979’s ‘Wiggle And Giggle All Night’ and 1980’s ‘Don Diablo’.But, Lipa’s lawyer Christine Lepera wrote in a letter to the court earlier this week, “the alleged similarities – a descending scale in which each pitch is repeated on evenly spaced notes, and a common clave rhythm – are unprotectable, and the result of the coincidental use of basic musical building blocks”.

Dua Lipa looked angelic in white. The fashion icon was photographed in a sheer white dress, perfect for the iconic wedding of Simon Porte Jacquemus and Marco Maestri in the south of France.The successful singer, who recently made headlines after being compared to Cher, wore matching underwear and a thigh-high slit, going viral for her stunning look, as she arrived at the star-studded celebration, which took place at the local town hall and continued at Château de Bonneval.Dua had the perfect ensemble for the occasion, paying tribute to Jacquemus by choosing a design from the 2022 Ready-To-Wear collection.The 27-year-old musician paired the floor-length dress with strappy nude heels, a black handbag and big white earrings.Fans of the singer had mixed feelings about her look, with one person on social media writing,“If Dua Lipa would show up to my wedding like this … I would simply cry myself to sleep,” while someone else commented, “I thought you weren’t supposed to wear white to other people’s weddings?”One thing is for certain, Dua looked as stunning as ever with the incredible skin-tight design.

Cher responded to Twitter claims that pop singer Dua Lipa is the "Cher of this generation".A fan dropped the tweet that caught Cher's attention, writing: "Dua Lipa, the Cher of our generation," with a clip of Dua that showed the resemblance between the singers.The clip showed Dua Lipa at the 2021 Grammy's wearing a revealing butterfly motif Versace gown. Beauty and fashion publications likened her outfit to that Cher's at the same event in 1974.READ MORE: Kim Kardashian accused of 'pointless' Photoshop fail as she shares swimsuit snapCher's outfit from the 70s included a butterfly headpiece and a jaw-dropping halter neck white bikini with a butterfly pinned to the middle of her cleavage.After being tagged in the tweet, Cher surprisingly responded."How many yrs are in a generation?" she wrote followed by a thinking emoji.

Dua Lipa‘s lawyers have made their opening statements in a copyright infringement claim brought against the singer, saying she had no prior exposure to two songs named in the lawsuit, and moving for the case to be dismissed.In March, songwriting duo L. Russell Brown and Sandy Linzer alleged that Lipa “duplicated” the “signature” opening melody for her 2020 single ‘Levitating’ from their 1979 song ‘Wiggle And A Giggle All Night’ and 1980 song ‘Don Diablo’.The plantiff’s complaint argued that Lipa had previously said she “deliberately emulated prior eras” to create a “retro” sound.

Cher has reacted to Dua Lipa being called the “Cher of our generation” on social media, sparking a conversation around the ethics of comparing younger artists to older ones who are still active.Earlier this week, a Twitter user shared a now-deleted tweet with side-by-side images of Cher and Lipa. According to Newsweek, the photo of Lipa showed her look at the 2021 Grammys next to Cher at the same awards in 1974 – both images showed them wearing visually similar, sparkling outfits that make prominent use of a butterfly design. “Dua Lipa, the Cher of our generation,” they captioned the post.Another user quote-retweeted the post, writing, “So much truth in one Tweet.” They tagged both artists, to which Cher responded somewhat shadily.

Cher isn't sure how to feel about being compared to Dua Lipa.

Cher is not giving up her title any time soon. The iconic singer took to Twitter to respond to a comment comparing her to Dua Lipa, as she didn’t seem to agree with the statement.An online user wrote, “Dua Lipa, the Cher of our generation,” posting a video of the 27-year-old musician at the Grammy Awards. But Cher was having none of it, as she subtly threw some shade, with the question, “How many years are in a generation.”The comparison caused many mixed reactions among fans of Dua and Cher.
