CELEB CAST-OFFS How stars including Becky Vardy & Kady McDermott are selling their designer gear on Vinted for fraction of the cost
CELEBRITIES are selling designer clobber on Vinted – where some of their gear can be snapped up for a few quid.
There are hundreds of 'star' bargains on the pre-loved site.
Famous names such as Wag Rebekah Vardy are flogging their high-end cast-offs for a fraction of the usual price.
Steps singer Claire Richards, Love Island's Kady McDermott, boxer Tyson Fury's daughter Venezuela, and model and TV presenter Alexa Chung are among those getting in on the act.
Savvy shoppers can kit themselves out thanks to the likes of Rebekah, 43, who is selling a pair of pink Barbie shorts for just £10.

Meanwhile, Venezuela, 15, is selling a Zara blazer for £30. Kady, 29, who only joined last week, has a pair of leopard-print boots up for grabs for a tenner.
As cash-strapped shoppers opt for second-hand, business is booming for Vinted.
The app has more than 16million UK users and is worth £4billion.
But Vinted and similar platforms are required to report sellers' activity to HMRC.
This means stars like these will almost certainly have to pay tax on their side hustles.
Here, we take a closer look at five celebrities' Vinted closets.

I make £2k in a few days thanks to my ‘cool' side hustle – I get to meet loads of celebrities & anyone can do it
Chifae claimed that you aren't allowed to have your phone whilst working and must sign NDAs SCENE QUEEN I make £2k in a few days thanks to my 'cool' side hustle – I get to meet loads of celebrities & anyone can do it A YOUNG woman has shared all on her 'cool' side hustle that sees her make thousands of pounds in just a few days. Chifae, a 23-year-old woman from London, explained that with her job, not only does she make cash quickly, but she even gets to meet loads of celebrities too. 2 A 23-year-old has revealed that rather than a 9 to 5 job, she cashes in with a very unique side hustle Credit: tiktok/@chifou02 2 Chifae got candid on her line of work, which sees her work "long hours", whilst getting to meet loads of celebrities Credit: tiktok/@chifou02 And that's not even the best part - with this line of work, anyone can do it and no qualifications are needed. Eager to reveal more about how she earns a living, Chifae took to social media and explained that instead of a 9 to 5 job, she works as a film extra. In film and television, a film extra, also known as a background actor, is a performer who often appears in a non-speaking role, typically in the background of a scene. Film extras help create a sense of realism by populating scenes, whilst providing context for the main action. As Chifae filmed herself in the street, she beamed: 'If you live in London, this is your sign to start working as a film extra. 'I made almost £2,000 for just seven days of shooting and got to meet Tom Cruise and Rosamund Pike.' While Chifae is a film extra in London, and has even met Harry Styles whilst out and about in the city, many other major cities in the UK and around the world will also be looking for people to star in the background of scenes. For those in London, Chifae recommended the following casting agencies - Rachel's People, Key Castings, Universal Extras, Extra People, Entertainment Partners and Slick Casting. Chifae's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @chifou02, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 179,700 views in just seven days. Not only this, but it's also amassed 18,300 likes, 212 comments and 2,952 saves. I earn cash by selling 'actual rubbish' on eBay - I flogged a freebie I found on the floor by a bin for £10, it's crazy Social media users were stunned by Chifae's unique side hustle and many were eager to 'learn' more about it and would 'love to know more.' One person said: 'I need to learn from you girl.' Another added: 'This is true, I miss being an extra.' Top five easiest side hustles Dog walking Babysitting Selling clothes on Vinted or Depop Start a Youtube or TikTok channel Tutoring A third commented: 'That's so cool!!' Meanwhile, someone else beamed: 'I do the same and it's the best thing ever. They feed you good food like three times on shift as well. I once got paid the full date rate for three hours of work too.' Whilst another chimed in and claimed: 'I did this for years and even a body double role, was fun and was on set with many big names.' At the same time, one user begged: 'Can you send the agencies please.' You have to sign NDAs - you're not allowed to post pictures of sets or anything, they're very strict on that Chifae And another asked: 'Do you need professional pictures taken to apply?' In response, Chifae wrote back and confirmed: 'I have professional photos but a lot of people don't. You don't need them.' In a follow-up clip, Chifae then shared more on her job as an extra, as she claimed that it is often 'very long hours' and shifts usually start from 4am or 5am and can go on until 8pm. Do I need to pay tax on my side hustle income? MANY people feeling strapped for cash are boosting their bank balance with a side hustle. The good news is, there are plenty of simple ways to earn some additional income - but you need to know the rules. When you're employed the company you work for takes the tax from your earnings and pays HMRC so you don't have to. But anyone earning extra cash, for example from selling things online or dog walking, may have to do it themselves. Stephen Moor, head of employment at law firm Ashfords, said: "Caution should be taken if you're earning an additional income, as this is likely to be taxable. "The side hustle could be treated as taxable trading income, which can include providing services or selling products." You can make a gross income of up to £1,000 a year tax-free via the trading allowance, but over this and you'll usually need to pay tax. Stephen added: "You need to register for a self-assessment at HMRC to ensure you are paying the correct amount of tax. "The applicable tax bands and the amount of tax you need to pay will depend on your income." If you fail to file a tax return you could end up with a surprise bill from HMRC later on asking you to pay the tax you owe - plus extra fees on top. Although the hours are long, Chifae claimed that working as an extra is a great way to make 'a lot of money' as extras are paid 'very good extra money for the overtime.' She then added: 'You don't have access to your phone, so it's a good way also to make friends and meet people. 'You have to sign NDAs - you're not allowed to post pictures of sets or anything, they're very strict on that. 'But if you don't have a 9 to 5 and you wanna do this for fun or extra money, or just to gain some experience in film, it's a very good way to start because you meet a lot of people and you get to meet very famous actors, film directors and it's just a good experience.'

Woman spends £73k to become Barbie but is told she looks ‘awful' and ‘ugly' – her ‘before' photo will leave you stunned
But trolls accused Marcela of having "more money than sense" and told her to "stop the surgery and pay for a therapist" LIVING DOLL Woman spends £73k to become Barbie but is told she looks 'awful' and 'ugly' – her 'before' photo will leave you stunned A WOMAN has revealed that she has splashed more than £73,000 to look like a real life Barbie doll. Marcela Iglesias, 47, who is from Buenos Aires and lives in Los Angeles, is obsessed with looking young and has not only had plastic surgery, but also goes for regular Botox and filler appointments too. 6 A mother has spent over £73,000 to transform into a "human Barbie" Credit: Instagram/@marcelaiglesiashollywood 6 But trolls have slammed Marcela Iglesias, 47, for her plastic look Credit: Truly/Youtube 6 Many have been left gobsmacked by her 'before' photo Credit: Jam Press/@marcelaiglesiashollywood 6 This mother has had her boobs done and is now debating whether to get butt implants Credit: Instagram/@marcelaiglesiashollywood But since going public with her plastic look, social media users have been left totally stunned after seeing her 'before' photo. Revealing all to Truly on an episode of Hooked on the Look, the blonde beauty, who has been dubbed a 'human Barbie', explained: "I have spent between Botox, fillers, injections, surgery, tanning, hair, make-up, around $100,000 [£73,639]." Reflecting on her desire to look like the popular children's doll, Marcela, who began getting Botox in 2012 and had her breasts done in 2022, said: 'All my life, I've been trying to look like a doll. "I wanna emulate Barbie, she's my idol. I believe I can be anything I want. 'The reason that I wanted to emulate the Barbie doll is that my mother never bought me a Barbie doll. She disliked the doll. 'I love the aesthetics of the doll and wanted to look like her, not because I wasn't secure, it's just about how I perceived the doll aesthetically.' But the mum's unique look attracts attention wherever she goes and online, she can be subject to cruel comments. She shared: "I get a lot of judgment. In the beginning it kind of bothered me. "The things they said, 'you look awful, you look ugly, you don't look like a Barbie'. 'It took me a while to process the bad comments and that people will be mean no matter what."

All my life, I've been trying to look like a doll. I wanna emulate Barbie, she's my idol Marcela Iglesias Clapping back to those who dislike her look, Marcela snapped: 'They should not be judging, they should look in the mirror and judge themselves first, rather than judge somebody self.'
