April 15, 2019 - 10:17 BST hellomagazine.com Victoria Beckham's daughter Harper has the sweetest new hair accessory – and we hope it comes in adult size! See the picture There's no doubting little Harper Beckham is going to grow up to be just as stylish as her famous mum – especially since we are already jealous of her impressive wardrobe of hair accessories. She may have recently chopped her hair into an adorable short bob , but that hasn't stopped Victoria from treating the seven year-old to an ultra trendy hairband for this Spring/Summer. So. Cute. On Sunday, the fashion designer shared an Easter snap of Harper cradling a bunny and wearing her paisley headscarf – and of course her millions of fans were quick to comment. Harper rocking her cute new hair accessory "Love her hairstyle," one wrote, while plenty of others posted pink bow emojis in the comments. Head scarves and hair accessories are a pretty big deal when it comes to Spring/Summer 2019 trends, so we'd hardly be surprised if VB had picked out the piece for her daughter – though we bet Harper loved it for keeping her hair off her face while she played in the sun. Stylish star mini-mes! When celebrity mums and daughters dress exactly the same Victoria told Ellen Degeneres in 2015 that Harper loves clothes - as well as being active and playing with her brothers. "She's a little tomboy," she said.

March 21, 2019 - 11:09 GMT Hanna Fillingham Strictly Come Dancing star Karen Clifton cried after being turned away by the barbers this week and on since then the barbers have spoken out Strictly Come Dancing star Karen Clifton left the barbers in tears at the beginning of the week , after being turned away by a male hairdresser. Karen was told that they didn't cut women's hair, despite the fact that she had been in the establishment twice before. After speaking out about her experience on social media, the barbers – Jacks of London – have spoken out in response to her claims and explained their reasons for turning her away. In a lengthy social media post, they wrote: "Earlier this morning TV celebrity Karen Clifton was informed that Jacks of London does not cater for women. Her experience has alerted us to the need to make it explicit to our entire team that Jacks of London DOES give barber cuts to everyone, regardless of gender." Karen Clifton cried after being turned away from Jacks of London MORE: The REAL reason this Coronation Street character was killed off They continued: "However, we must also emphasise that Jacks of London is a barber store, specialising in barber cuts." The barbers explained that while they cut for all genders, not all the staff are trained in the specific style that Karen currently has. They said: "Indeed, Karen Clifton has had her short hair done twice before at our store without event. But these are specific styles. Many of our barbers have had barber AND hairdressing training, but not all. Barbers and hairdressers require different skills and training; a hairdresser may stumble over cutting a pattern in a fade while a barber would struggle to cut a bob. This is why there tends to be a gender divide between hair salons and barbershops, but for anyone of any gender who wants an undercut, as Karen currently sports, a tight fade or a short, back and sides, … [Read more...] about Strictly Come Dancing star Karen Clifton’s barbers speaks out after making her cry

I Got a Story to Tell achieves something notably slicker than your average Biggie murder story Photo: George DuBose At the heart of “ Juicy ,” one of hip-hop’s most indelible rags-to-riches anthems, is the world-beating joy of a Black boy from Brooklyn realizing his dreams are finally within reach. The lilt in the voice of the 21-year-old Notorious B.I.G. as he detailed quality of life improvements that new fame allowed — a Super Nintendo and a Sega Genesis, a nice television and a leather couch to watch it on, bottles of champagne at the ready — is perfectly infectious. The boasts are modest, signs of the bleakness of prospects for inner city youth who didn’t come from great means, many of whom would never find chances to experience the world past streets they grew up in. “Juicy” plays with a familiar formula: As with early rap gems like Sugar Hill Gang ’s “Rapper’s Delight,” the Treacherous Three’s “Feel the Heartbeat,” or the Funky 4 + 1’s “That’s the Joint” and “Rappin and Rocking the House,” “Juicy” lifts its unstoppable bounce off a popular cookout anthem, New York post-disco icons Mtume’s “Juicy Fruit,” reimagining the music of the artist’s childhood as a launchpad for more adult concerns. What sets the Ready to Die staple apart from similar moments of pride throughout hip-hop history is that at the time of recording, things weren’t yet “all good” for Biggie. He had cut his teeth doing an impressive array of guest appearances by the summer of 1994, when he released the lead single from his debut album, most notably on remixes to Bad Boy and Uptown Records affiliates Craig Mack and Mary J. Blige’s “Flava in Ya Ear,” “Real Love,” and “What’s the 411?” He’d already shined on 1993’s “Party and Bullshit” and stole the show on “A Bunch of Niggas,” the closer on the Heavy D and the Boyz highlight Blue Funk . He’d been in The Source , the bible of 20th-century hip-hop, in 1992 thanks to his impressive demo tape. He didn’t have a hit record … [Read more...] about Biggie’s Story Finally Gets a Proper Retelling
