Blog profile


I am currently in my final year at uni and have always had a passion for writing - and Cosmo is feeding that fire beautifully! There are a few things you should know about me: I'm a celebrity tragic and a loyal devotee of Perez Hilton; I believe Victoria's Secret models were sent from heaven and I'm a news nut — you'll often find me reading newspapers and websites from all over the world. My current obsessions? Theodora Richards, Margherita Missoni, Izabel Goulart and a pair of Tory Burch shoes!

Love is in the air...

...among TV's hottest co-stars, that is.

It's official! Last weekend, Gossip Girl co-stars Blake Lively and Penn Badgley were snapped by paparazzi on a romantic holiday in Mexico. The pair - both of whom are unnaturally gorgeous - were spotted kissing, holding hands and by all reports, looking very much loved-up.

If there is one thing I love more than true love, it's true love among co-stars. Lord knows, I'm still in tatters over the failed romance of Rachel Bilson and Adam Brody (so what if it's been over two years since their break-up?) There's something about knowing that the two people you're watching act like lovers really are doing the deed! It's just that bit more appealing.

I'm sure I'm not alone in studying every scene closely, revelling in the fact that each glance, each laugh and smile is real. It's almost like getting a glimpse into their real lives. And who doesn't love taking a peek into a celeb's private life? (Well, think about it … how else do you account for the popularity of Newlyweds and Celebrity Survivor?)

Truly, did no-one else's heart skip a beat when they discovered Brad Pitt and Angelina were courting on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith? Of course, they still deny doing the dirty on Jen, but puh-lease, that screen was steaming up by the second! The day those two were cast together was the last day of Jen's life as Mrs Pitt.

As for Blake and Penn, it's only early days and I definitely do not want jinx the lucky couple by talking about Splitsville. I still reach for tissues whenever I watch The O.C reruns, for goodness sake. Speaking of which: Adam, why don't you give Rachel a quick call? After all, you still share custody of your dogs … and Hayden's got nothing on you, Seth. I mean Adam.

Cosmo Blog

New York, New York

Have you ever been to New York City? I’ve just returned. I mean, literally just stepped off the plane and, yes, my hair looks like crap after … oh 18 or 19 hours flying time. But what a trip! What a city! What a hoot! Let me explain … I was in New York on official Cosmo business, a fact finding mission where I was privy to a whiff of two divine new fragrances that I’ll tell you all about in the mag very soon! Let me just say this – there’s one for him (the sexy 91X RocaWear) and one for you (the mischievous and delicious new scent, Juicy Couture!)… so just keep your Christmas list (and Christmas shopping list!) in pencil for a little while yet. When working for Cosmo, however, luckily business often meets pleasure and so I also had the opportunity to play tourist, eat at some amazing restaurants, absorb the electric atmosphere of the US Presidential Elections, make new friends, catch up with old friends and shop in Zara like a woman possessed. Here are some of the highlights:
