One lucky Aussie wins entire $30 million jackpot
The entire $30,628,398.22 division one amount went to one extremely lucky player.
The winning numbers were 2, 25, 6, 4, 31, 34, 19 and the Powerball number was 20.
The multimillionaire winner was not from WA, residing elsewhere in the country.
Unfortunately, West Aussies weren't too fruitful in division two either; there were 21 winners, each scoring $26,947.75, but they were all from elsewhere in the country.
In division three, seven West Aussies won a handy $12,563.50, not to be sniffed at.
Perth Now has recently revealed the luckiest Saturday Lotto numbers of the last forty years which may be helpful for any players hedging their bets on Saturday's $30 million mega draw.
Many players use Playslips to select their preferred numbers, but most often, it's randomly generated figures at the point of sale that result in Division One wins.
In May, a Warnbro couple planned an 'extra luxurious haircut for their beloved dog' after bagging a $1.2 million Saturday Lotto pay day from just a $6.65 Playslip.

Common pilates act that everyone is guilty of doing at some point
An Aussie pilates instructor has called out an all too common exercise act that most of us are guilty of. Adelle Petropoulos, 30, teaches pilates full time and does four classes a week. After a recent class, the Melbourne woman took to TikTok to rant about something she sees in the studio all the time. 'If this ever happens in your pilates class, just stop moving. You've done your class, everyone's worked their little tushies off. The instructor's put on harmonious music,' she said. 'Find your quiet, still space — that is not instructions for you to get up, take your straps off and start cleaning your reformer.' She said all that can be heard throughout the quiet time at the end of the class are the sounds of cleaning spray and noisy personal items being bundled up. Ms Petropoulos advised people to either leave before the quiet music, or don't come to the class at all as it interrupts others who choose to stay. Speaking to Ms Petropoulos said as an instructor her job is to create the best 45-minute experience for every person in the room. 'When people start packing up before class ends, it disrupts that shared energy. It sends a message — intentionally or not — that the last few minutes don't matter, when in fact, they're often the most important: the wind-down, the breath work, the integration. Those moments are where the magic happens,' she told 'It's not just about etiquette, it's about respect — for the practice, the instructor, and most importantly, for the people around you who are still trying to be present. Everyone deserves that full experience.' She said she understood that most people didn't mean any harm by it, as they're just busy, but it can be incredibly 'disruptive' and 'pulls others out of the moment'. Ms Petropoulos said most people agreed with what she said in the social media rant. Another action, from her perspective, that causes similar issues is using your phone in class. She mentioned that most people come in with a great energy and respect for the space. 'Just a reminder that we're all human — no one's perfect! But if we can all stay present, support each other, and treat the space with care, it makes a huge difference. Pilates is about more than movement — it's a shared community lead experience, and when we all show up fully, the energy in the room becomes something really special,' Ms Petropoulos said. Simon Ngo, from Flow Athletic, described Ms Petropoulos' video as 'spot on and accurate'. He said while leaving during the cool down portion of the class at Flow Athletic, due to the relative intensity of the classes, is quite rare it seems to be a fairly common occurrence in pilates in general. 'I just feel like it's a 'what a shame' moment. It's as though you've gone to the effort of checking out the dessert menu but not ordered anything,' he said. 'Or more accurately, like you've ordered the dessert, it's arrived and you've decided to leave.' He said people should stick around for that part of the class, as it's part of it for a reason. 'If you don't start a class without a warm up, why would you not finish with a cool down,' he said. 'Otherwise, a class would have been advertised 5 mins shorter. Plus, your instructors probably would have gone above and beyond to plan these Zen closing out moments. 'As much as people are time poor and, rather because of it, these few minutes of slowing down and reconnecting with ourselves are the stress-buster and self-care everyone needs in these of world of being busy today.' He said in 2025, securing a spot in a pilates class almost rivals getting into the housing market so, if you land a spot, 'stay for the full experience'.

Where to get Perth's best pies
Leederville One minute you're going about your business not aware there is something fundamental missing in your life, and then a new pie shop opens in Leederville and you think: 'Finally, the missing puzzle piece of my existence on this mortal plane has been discovered.' At least, that's the experience of almost everyone who has stumbled upon this bougie pie shop, that claims to be a homage to the classic country pie shop but with a lot of millennial green. With flavours like chicken cordon bleu and tofu kimchi-jjigae, these guys are not scared to try new things, and we are big fans. Applecross, Cockburn, Claremont These guys boldly claim to have the best pies in Perth. They have some stiff competition but also, they may just have legitimate claim to the title. While they might have a more limited selection than some other spots on this list — they only offer eight flavours — they do what they do very well, and as a butcher, their meats are topnotch. They also boast excellent sausage rolls. Wangara, Westminster, Bullsbrook JD Pies and Tacos. Seafood Boil Pie. Credit: Instagram This is a bit of a hidden gem, but those in the know will attest to this spot in the Wanneroo Markets (with stores in Westminster and Bullsbrook) being among the best in Perth. These guys are not afraid to experiment, and their pies often have an American flavour profile. A recent special was a seafood boil pie in a cajun butter sauce. They also do mashups like chunky beef with macaroni cheese and even a few sweet pies for dessert. Mmmm dessert pies. Lathlain, Shenton Park These guys bake pies fresh daily with elite level flakey pasty to munch your way through. Also, being a bakery there are plenty of sweet treats on offer to really round out your cheeky lunch. East Fremantle Georgee Pies Credit: Instagram Can't decide if you want a classic Aussie pie or a nasi goreng? At this George Street gem you can get the former inside the latter. It really is the best of both worlds. They do other unconventional flavours — think red Thai curry or butter mango chicken — but they also do a solid line in the classics. The queues down the street attest to the popularity of these pies. Get in early before they sell-out.

Nicole Kidman learned make-up from movie work
Nicole Kidman learned how to do her make-up by watching professionals on movie sets. The Hollywood actress has revealed working with make-up artists, costume designers and directors over the years has helped her understand how to apply cosmetics properly and use them to help change up her look whenever she wants to do something different. She told WWD: "When you're working with someone like [director] Baz Luhrmann and [costume designer] Catherine Martin, there's a very specific look they want for the character. "I started to realize, as I was being created by others and experimenting, they were teaching me how to use makeup in particular ways and create characters. I could then go and use that in real life." She added: "When I started experimenting with make-up and skin care myself, I went through so many different stages: lots of masks, this and that. I learned I can change aspects of my face, augment things, and it became much more creative and exciting." Nicole recently signed up to be a brand ambassador for cosmetics company Clé de Peau Beauté and she insisted she was already a fan of their products before the deal came about. She told the publication: "I'd already been using so many of their products. It wasn't like I was going to have to discover them, and I was in." Nicole previously revealed changing her look so many times over the years took a toll on her hair. She used to sport long curls, but she previously revealed she lost her "ringlets" because she "tortured them to death" by straightening her hair so much. She told Who magazine: "I really wanted to have that suntanned skin and long blonde hair. I wanted to conform and be the Aussie beach girl. And I was never going to be that ... "I wish I had my curls back. I tortured them to death. I always say, 'Don't ruin the ringlets!'" She later added to the The Sunday Morning Herald: "Do I wish that I hadn't screwed up my hair by straightening it all the time? Sure." Nicole also admitted she wishes she'd been "more careful" with sun cream in her younger years after previously dealing with skin cancer. She added to the publication: "I've had skin cancer; do I wish I'd been more careful with the sun? Yes, to all those things. "But am I grateful to be around? Oh, yeah. And am I willing to share my knowledge, what I've learnt along the way? Absolutely."
