Going up!
The Palio
Siena’s legendary horse race has gained Madonna’s blessing: she celebrated her birthday there last week. “There are no words,” she said.
Ibiza Final Boss
Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday — except the Ibiza Final Boss. The hideously coiffed dancer who went viral on the island has signed a five-figure deal with boohooMAN. Very summer 2025.
Once Upon a Time in the West End
Prepare to welcome Tarantino to London. For the director’s next act, he has promised us a play and slated a UK move for 2026.
Headphone handbags
The only acceptable way to carry your headphones? Cult kilt maker Chopova Lowena’s new Sony collab Alto Bag.
Going down...
Claire’s

Georgina Rodríguez’s ring
Outrage continues to flutter through the jewellery world following pictures of the gobstopper diamond on Cristiano Ronadlo’s fiancée. It is naff, Ron.
New Topshop
What in the M11 pile-up was that Topshop revival show in Trafalgar Square? A fast fashion revival we didn’t need.
Airport pillows
A petition, please, for a total ban on neck pillows for flights under seven hours. No, Sally, you do not need one for Luton to Palma.
