Harper Beckham shares make-up tutorial
The teenager was filmed showing followers how to apply a liquid blusher from the Spice Girls star's Victoria Beckham Beauty line and it was shared on her mom's company's Instagram page.
The video was captioned: "Before it was in your makeup bag, it was in hers. #HarperSeven our #VBBMuse wears Colour Wash in 'Flushed' - a lab sample, of course."
Harper was seen taking a dropper of bright red blusher and expertly smoothing it over her cheeks, nose and eyelids before showing off her finished look.
Victoria previously revealed Harper is an expert at doing her own make-up now and they often head to high street beauty store Space NK together for an after school treat.
The former pop star told The Times newspaper: "She's been able to do a full face and contour for quite some time. She's good at doing it very naturally. ...
"Going to Space NK is her favourite treat after school. If she does well in a test I'll take her to the one down the road - it's her favourite thing. She's obsessed."
Victoria previously explained how the beauty mistakes of her own youth helped inform her choices as she created her own products for her Victoria Beckham Beauty brand.
She told Elle magazine: "I've seen so many pictures of myself in the past, and I've been able to learn from seeing those images in my development process.
"A prime example is when I created the Lid Lustre Eyeshadow. Being on stage and wearing a sparkly eye taught me so much and it's why I was so specific about the size of the pigments and the fallout of the products.
"I've seen so many pictures where I look like I've been punched in the face on stage because the pigments have been too large.
"When I'm developing my products, I take into consideration my own experiences ... I am difficult to please and I never put anything out there until I truly believe it is the best in class. "
Victoria's most recent launch was a line of make-up brushes, and she had a very hands-on role in the design process.
She told British Vogue: "I spent a lot of time thinking about these brushes and what it was that I desired and couldn't find."
Victoria explained that the brushes have all "earned their place" in her new collection, saying: "My focus is always on the 'why' and the brushes that have made it into this collection have earned their place and right to be there. They're inspired by calligraphy pens."

‘Overweight' Tom Papley claps back at Toby Greene with midnight DM sledge
Suspended GWS captain Toby Greene has revealed a cheeky midnight post-script to his battle with Tom Papley after the most pointed half-time interview of the season last Friday night. Papley earned the ire of the Giants skipper in the first half and the prickly forward was still mouthing off at Greene as they left the field for the main break. Frustrated that he was being interviewed at the time, Greene used the moment to swipe Papley. 'He's looking overweight, we'll see how he goes (in the) second half,' Greene said before inspiring an extraordinary turnaround from nearly five goals down to win by 44 points. The rare personal jab prompted questions over whether the AFL could take action — but it has now emerged just why Papley, Sydney and GWS brushed it off as a harmless joke. Papley, as it turns out, took it in his stride. 'I was sitting on the couch at midnight, had got home and I was just watching Tour de France,' Greene said on his Ausmerican Aces podcast. 'And on my Instagram message 'Tom Papley' comes up and I go 'oh here we go'. I was like what's this going to be. 'And it's just a photo of him eating McDonald's. It was pretty funny, I had a good laugh at that — that was good by him. It was pretty sharp by him.' Greene's co-host and former AFL teammate Tommy Sheridan then shared that Papley had also been in touch with him before recording the episode. 'He's asked me to ask you a question so I'm going to ask you now — 'just ask Toby what his skinfolds are',' Sheridan said. Papley had filmed himself getting his skinfolds tested to fire a second shot back at Greene. 'Interesting time for skinfolds. What was the result there? 37.5,' Papley said in the video with a knowing nod. Greene replied on his podcast: '37.5, that's good from him. Yeah, he's in good nick there actually.' 'I didn't mean he was fat, I meant he was underdone — he hasn't really played much footy and I knew he'd rushed back in for the game,' he said. 'That's what I meant but yeah, well done to him there, that's good from him.' Papley signalled the end of the chapter with a reply to the video of Greene's reaction: 'Good fun.' Greene's jibe was thought to have been a response to Papley broaching the subject of Jake Stringer's weight during a back-and-forth between the pair on the boundary line. On the podcast, Greene shared that more Papley verbals contributed to his 'overweight' remark. 'There was a lot going on before that moment. They were really up and about, and he'd certainly had a fair bit to say throughout the first half, and I didn't get near it,' the Giants star said. 'We were playing horrible. I was pretty furious at half-time. I saw (commentator) Ben Dixon walking towards me. I was like 'f*** don't interview me, please don't interview me'. 'While that interview (is happening), you can't really hear it, he (Papley) is just ripping into me while I'm getting interviewed, and I can't really say too much. I can't say anything. I can't go back at him mid-interview. 'Dicko's asking questions. I can't concentrate, I was that angry, mate. He's worded me up with a question about Paps, so I thought I handed it reasonably well, to be honest. 'I wasn't really going at his weight, although that's what I said. I knew he was underdone, and he probably shouldn't have been playing, so that's kind of what I meant by the comment. 'When I said it, I was like 'shouldn't have said that, that was stupid'. Again, the emotions got the better of me, and I could just hear Paps f***ing yapping away in my ear, I was like 'this dickhead'. While Greene escaped punishment for the interview, he did receive a one-match ban for striking Isaac Heeney. The GWS captain will miss his side's important finals-shaping clash with the Western Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night.

Inside The Block's biggest controversies that stunned viewers
A reality television cheating scandal, a mid-reno walkout slammed as 'piss-poor' and a flashy billionaire who casually dropped more than $15m to buy every house on auction night. The Block has built more than 100 homes over its past 20 seasons, but it's the blow-ups, breakdowns and backstabbing that have really kept Australians watching. From topless party photos and marriage-ending flirtations to secret photos that blew up a season, the country's biggest renovation show has delivered some of the wildest moments in Australian TV history, and left more than a few contestants in tears. And now, with the show's 21st season on the horizon and rumours already swirling about tensions on set, we've gone back through the archives to rank the top 10 biggest scandals ever caught on camera, the moments that raised eyebrows, broke headlines, and left hosts Scott Cam and Shelley Craft shaking their heads. Lambo Guy's $15m power move (The Block 2024) A Melbourne tech billionaire with a fleet of Lamborghinis shocked viewers when he bought every single property at The Block 2024 finale, a move no one expected and fans are still talking about. Luxury car magnate Adrian Portelli, dubbed Lambo Guy, dropped a whopping $15.03m across the night, capping off the winners Maddy and Charlotte's haul with their record-breaking $1.65m profit with their house selling for a jaw-dropping $3.5m. Portelli later confirmed on Nova 100 that he had worked closely with Maddy and Charlotte, hand-selecting their bidding order, to help them secure the win. 'It worked – I've never said it was rigged. I made the decision,' Portelli said. Auctioneer Tom Panos added context, noting the finale wasn't a typical weekend auction but a media event, with buyers seeking exposure as much as homes Channel 9 confirmed the process followed standard open-auction rules, but social media lit up afterwards. Some viewers took to social media and cheered the strategy while others accused the show of favouring the billionaire. Portelli has vowed not to return for the show's 2025 season and will be hosting a new rival show My Reno Rules, alongside Dr Chris Brown on Channel 7 in 2026. Influencers dump Block mid renovation (The Block 2022) They came with the followers and the fitspo, but influencer Elle Ferguson and ex-AFL star Joel Patfull didn't even last a weekend before they walked off The Block. Just 48 hours into filming the 2022 Tree Change season, the couple pulled the pin and flew back to Sydney. The pair revealed in a post on Instagram that Joel's mother had suffered a serious fall and was being flown to hospital in Adelaide. But the show's host, Scott Cam, wasn't impressed. Days later, Cam revealed at the TV Week Logie Awards that they'd vanished in the night without explanation and accused them of putting the production in chaos: 'They never spoke to us … we flew them down, put them up in a hotel … and they left, it's piss-poor, to be honest.' Cam later doubled down, calling their exit 'unâ€'Australian' and saying it cost the show time and money, despite his insistence he still wished them well. Elle and Joel were swiftly replaced by Rachel and Ryan, who stepped in to fill their spot. It remains the shortest, most controversial contestant stint in Block history. Photo leak blows up Block (The Block 2021) It all began with a single photo, and it detonated one of the most explosive scandals The Block has ever seen. During the 2021 Fans vs. Faves season, contestants Tanya & Vito and Josh & Luke were caught in possession of a photograph of the show's production schedule, giving them insight into upcoming room reveals, challenge days, and timing, a major unfair advantage that sent shockwaves through the competition Rumours started when past contestants Ronnie and Georgia accused the twins of 'having the full schedule' after a surprising judging upset, they said it directly affected their heavy-scoring master bedroom build. Pressure built all season until, in the final weeks, Tanya admitted on camera: 'I took the photograph. I didn't get it sent to me. I actually took the photo.' Host Scott Cam labelled it 'the biggest cheating scandal in Block history', and both teams were hit with penalties, losing two points each on their front-garden scores in the final judgment. In the lead-up to auction, tensions simmered. Teams publicly spat accusations, including Josh and Luke blaming Tanya for dragging them into the scandal, and many fans felt the two-point penalty was too lenient. To this day, there's still debate from fans over whether the punishment was enough to compensate for the unfair lead they gained. Flirt fallout: Block pair exit show (The Block 2024) One week before the auctions, The Block: Phillip Island erupted in real-life drama when Brad Baker admitted his remarks to co-contestant Mimi Belperio were 'inappropriate'. sparking a dramatic reaction from his wife, Kylie. During Frontyard Week, footage captured Brad confessing: 'I was flirting with Mimi … Kylie overheard them, and very understandably, she's quite upset.' That evening, Kylie stormed off-site barefoot, visibly distressed, during the judging segment, leaving behind her car at the Aldi car park. Production and Brad later located her to ensure her safety. In tears, she told Brad on camera, 'I can't be on national television having my marriage breaking down.' The following night, Brad appeared in a stand-alone interview where he admitted: 'I've just single-handedly destroyed my family.' Host Scott Cam later addressed the remaining teams during Clubhouse Week, confirming that 'Kylie and Brad are not returning' for the auction finale, making them ineligible for the prize. Block's $8000 bath sparks controversy (The Block 2018) Influencers on The Block, Hayden and Sara made waves in 2018 when they centred their premium ensuite around a luxe brass bathtub, dubbed the 'Gatsby Bath.' The eyeâ€'watering $8000 price tag nearly doubled the room's expected cost, and prompted widespread controversy. Design briefs called it 'the hero piece' of their space. The paired marble herringbone floor earned praise from judge Shaynna Blaze. Upon entering the ensuite, she admitted the bath and marble floor were striking: 'I think that is a lot of money spent and I think it's great money spent,' she said. 'But, I think we need to talk about the rest of the bathroom.' The result? Their ensuite claimed the title of the most expensive bathroom in Block history, estimated at $75,000, but also placed them last in room rankings for three consecutive weeks. Sara said the entire apartment is built around the bathtub. 'But as the age-old adage goes, money can't buy love, nor can it buy you a win on The Block,' she said. The brass bath gamble generated headlines and online debate: was it genius luxury or budget folly? By the look of the scores, it was a glam gamble that didn't quite stack up and still remains the show's most expensive bathroom to date. Block stars penalised over piano purchase (The Block 2022) It was a living room reveal that iced their score, not crowned best design. During Living & Dining Week in 2022, Omar and Oz delivered a stunning room, complete with a baby grand piano that retailed for $36,000, but which they secured for an astonishing $7,500. Judge Shaynna Blaze immediately raised eyebrows: 'Do you remember last week I was saying … I was a bit worried about where they're getting the money from? And now we've got a baby grand … they're not winning every week.' Host Scott Cam confirmed the purchase broke the rule which stipulates contestants can't purchase items more than 50 per cent off retail price. 'You can't go and spend $7,000 on a piano … the retail price is $36,000 … 50 per cent of retail cost is $18,000 boys'. The result? A three-point deduction and disqualification from that week's win, even though the room scored a strong 28.5. Omar later said they thought the discount was legitimate since the seller was struggling to move it, but admitted nobody had flagged the rule earlier. Online fans were divided: some praised the design, others defended the penalty as 'textbook enforcement'. Despite the blunder, the boys went on to win the 2022 season of the show. Steph and Gian's rogue Dad drama (The Block 2023) What should have been a simple 'body corporate' meeting to clarify site safety instead exploded into accusations of rule-breaking and possible cheating. In the first week of The Block 2023, contestants Steph and Gian faced backlash during a snap meeting called by fellow teams Leah, Ash, Kristy, and Brett after Steph's father, builder Nick, stepped onto the onsite build to help fix their bathroom issues. Contestants warned that, per Block rules, anyone working on site must be inducted for safety and paid minimum wages. 'If he hasn't been inducted … and if he's installing a shower screen … that's cheating,' Eliza said. While Leah added the move 'bent the rules'. Steph responded openly, saying they 'didn't realise' the oversight but would ensure her father received induction and would be paid, adding 'We didn't cheat' in later interviews. Production didn't dock points, but the drama sparked a wider debate on what counts as cheating, and how far family can be involved before it crosses a line. In the end, the bathroom didn't win, placing last that week, but the 'rogue dad' moment has become one of the most talked-about rule skirmishes in the show's history. 'Bogan' spray sparks Block judge feud (The Block 2014: Glasshouse) It was one of the most savage feuds in Block history: contestant Deanne Jolly in full-offence mode against interior design judge Shaynna Blaze. The tension boiled over after Deanne's couple received sharp criticism on their ensuite. In the heat of the moment, Deanne exploded: 'She's a bogan from Wantirna who's got no f**king idea, and I will out-style you any day.' Reporters covering the episode called it an expletive-ridden rant and one of the show's most memorable outbursts. Despite the backlash, Deanne later defended herself: 'In the context of that day, not having slept for 36 hours … you get tired and say things perhaps you shouldn't,' she said. Deanne adding she still had 'nothing but respect' for Shaynna. Surfboard stirs cultural controversy on Block (The Block 2024) During a surfboard design challenge contestants Ricky Recard and Haydn Wise unveiled artwork that many viewers believed borrowed heavily from Indigenous dot-painting styles. The surfboard featured a bold orange base with circular dot motifs — which judge Darren Palmer admitted he found 'interesting,' saying: 'This is very orange … it's also got some … tones of Indigenous art to it.' Social media erupted, on Instagram, threads went viral, with comments such as: 'Take this down and apologise,' 'This blatant display of cultural appropriation is beyond disappointing.' The criticism prompted Channel 9 to release a statement saying Ricky and Haydn had 'reached out to a traditional owner of the land who guided them on the protocols around interpreting Indigenous art,' and that the artwork was 'inspired by, but never intended to be a mimic of an original Indigenous artwork.' Though it didn't result in penalties or removal of the surfboard, the controversy raised serious questions, turning a lighthearted decor challenge into a heated national debate on cultural sensitivity and creative boundaries. Spy-gate: Block duo caught cheating (The Block 2014) Brothers Shannon and Simon Voss hid a phone under the main bedroom bed to record the judges' private feedback during Season 9 (Glasshouse) of The Block. Judge Darren Palmer spotted the device while inspecting the power points under the bed. 'There's a major error down here … guess what he found?', Palmer said before pulling out the phone. Host Scott Cam and the judges then confronted the brothers on camera, asking whether their action was 'cheating'. Darren later confirmed to Yahoo News, he had to overdub his original 'cheeky f***ers' comment to 'cheeky monkeys' for broadcast. The stunt was one of the earliest controversies of the show's history, with the judges at the time saying the move was 'unprecedented'. Despite the scandal, the Voss brothers went on to win The Block: Glasshouse.

After breaking his neck, Shane is on a mission to change global travel
You'd be furious, wouldn't you, if you boarded a cruise to find a suitable cabin wasn't available, and you were turned away, with the cruise line refusing you a refund? If you had a physical disability, you'd be angry but perhaps not surprised. This sort of customer service fail is common for people with mobility issues. For those travellers (and 38 per cent of people over 65 identify as having some sort of disability), there are many barriers to getting around, but the most infuriating involve thoughtlessness, selfishness and bureaucratic laziness. Shane Hryhorec is on a mission to raise awareness of what it's like to travel with a disability – and to challenge airlines, cruise ships, hotels and other travellers to do better. Seventeen years ago, Shane broke his neck in a swimming accident. Today, he's an entrepreneur and disability advocate, and a finalist in the 2025 Australian of the Year Local Hero Awards. In 2016, he started the charity Accessible Beaches Australia, which increased the number of accessible beaches in the country from five to more than 60, with plans for many more. He's also the force behind the viral TikTok travel series Wheel Around the World, which has 242,000 followers and has reached more than 100 million views online. His video of travelling in a wheelchair on an MSC cruise had 40 million views. And then there's his Instagram account, @wheelaroundtheworldwithshane, which has 35,000 followers. You could say he is influential. He's also very, very funny. His brutal honesty and wry humour make him a must-follow. I'm addicted. You can check the trailer for his latest adventure – 'Can I get around the entire island of Taiwan in a wheelchair?' − on his YouTube channel.
