Paris Fury's daughter plans to copy Princess Andre and make millions as an influencer
Paris and Tyson Fury's daughter, Venezuela, has thousands of followers on Instagram and looks set to make her mark in the lucrative world of influencing Tyson Fury's daughter, Venezuela, has amassed a legion of loyal fans following her family's smash-hit Netflix series and now looks set to make mega money as an influencer as a result. The 15-year-old, who stars in At Home With the Furys on the streaming giant, is said to be keen to copy Peter Andre and Katie Price's daughter, Princess, and use her platform to cash in on her family's success. Already more than 6ft tall, Venezuela has also reportedly caught the eye of several modelling agencies and has signed with celebrity agent, Claire Powell, who represents Peter and a host of other famous faces. Despite Tyson's fame and £110 million fortune, the Fury family continues to uphold their heritage and Paris felt it was important for Venezuela to be taught 'traveller skills and traditions' from a young age. However, Venezuela wasn't buying it to begin with. In their hit Netflix series, Paris accused her then 13-year-old daughter of being a 'privileged little brat" and refused to let her 'sponge' off her father's staggering fortune. Paris asked her firstborn what her plans for the future were and what kind of career she could see herself in, before Venezuela simply said: "Sit at home.' Eyebrows raised, Paris replied: "By the time I was 12 or 13, your granny was showing me everything I needed to know about home life and then once a week I used to go to a centre where we used to do like Gypsy Traveller meetings'. Venezuela shot back: "Being deadly serious now, I don't have a plan. I don't want to do anything, from the bottom of my heart.' Paris then asked the teenager if she was 'just going to sponge' from her dad Tyson, to which Venezuela nodded and smiled before her mum savagely responded: "I always thought of something how to better myself, you are obviously just a privileged little brat." However, now, at almost 16, it looks like Venezuela is forging her own path within the hugely popular #GypsyTok social media arena. As well as her successful outfit hauls and GRWM videos, the teen recently revealed she's flogging some of old clothes from her family's £1.7 million mansion on Vinted. Speaking to The Sun about Venezuela's lucrative future, fashion editor, Clemmie Fieldsend said: "She's already got a savvy business mind and is using her social presence to sell her old designer clothes on Vinted - and with an army of thousands - she could easily bag seven figures. "Looking at the likes of Princess Andre, another successful teen, at 18 years-old she's bagged deals as a brand ambassador for the likes of PrettyLittleThing and Superdrug. "There's a high chance Venezuela could achieve the same - if not better."

Waiter told us 'someone smells lovely' after I wore DKNY perfume - get it for £5
The second time I wore my new DKNY perfume a random person said 'it smelt lovely' There are few better compliments you can get than being told 'you smell good'. That's what happened to me at dinner on holiday when the waiter came to serve our table and said 'someone smells lovely'. Three days before, I had treated myself to a new DKNY perfume at Heathrow duty free, which was the culprit for the compliment. Not only do I recommend the fresh, floral smell of the Be Delicious Fresh Blossom, but I've found a way to beat the £20 price I paid for it, and chop a further £15 off. A nifty deal stack drops the long-lasting perfume down to only £5. Listed at the same rate I paid at the airport, Superdrug sells the 30ml for £20. The shopping tip comes in with TopCashback, anyone who buys the eau de parfum through the money-saving site's link will bag money back into their account, which is what drops the price down to a few pounds. Described as 'floreal' the DKNY scent is one of the brand's most iconic smells, less sharp than its original Green Apple one, but still displayed in its distinct apple-like bottle. The design and smell has been around for decades, from the early 2000s. Get DKNY Be Delicious Blossom for £5 Product Description This is the first time I've personally tried the sweeter and more subtle Blossom eau de parfum. I am a repeat buyer of the original DKNY Be Delicious scent, which can be found at The Perfume Shop from £47. I buy a bottle for myself each time I see it on offer. It just happens this time at Heathrow's sale rack there wasn't the original green apple scent. Instead, the Be Delicious Blossom resembles a pink lady apple, and is a lot fresher, in my opinion. The only flaw I've found in the two weeks I've had it, is the design of the bottle. Unlike other scents, the lid on this one is much harder to open. With notes of grapefruit and apricot, a few sprays lasted me all evening without being too overpowering. It's also one of those perfumes where if you spray on clothes, the next day when popping away or in the wash the smell will linger. I'm not the only person to love the scent. On the review section of Superdrug's site it says that '95% of commenters would recommend this to a friend.' One person said: "This is a regular perfume purchase. Sometimes for myself, sometimes as a gift. "Perfect fragrance for spring/summer. Never regret it." Another shopper highlighted the durability of the scent, and said: "At the time of purchase this was such a good price. Bought as a perfume for work - fresh smell and lasts all day. Would buy again." I've found the perfume to last a long time when wearing it, a couple of spritz on my wrists and neck lasts me all day. However, not all the commenters at Superdrug agreed. "It fades quickly but, I am happy I tried DKNY. I prefer DKNY Nectar Love", said one shopper. The scent the above shopper pointed out, DKNY Nectar Love, can be bought at Amazon for £29.95 for a 100ml. As the name suggests, this perfume is a much sweeter option and has hints of honey throughout. How to get the DKNY perfume for £5 Shoppers can cut the price of the perfume by following these TopCashback steps:
