Celebs left, right and centre are getting their long hair chopped into trendy bob hairstyles. We’ve had Lily Allen with her ‘French girl’ bob and Emily Ratajkowski with a chin-skimming number, and now we have Maura Higgins making a bid for Bob of the Year with her modern take on a ‘Pulp Fiction’ cut.
You don’t even need to have seen the movie to understand this comparison because Uma Thurman’s fringe and below-the-ear chop is still an iconic look nearly 30 years on from the film’s release. Maura, however, is adding extra glamour to the short cut with plenty of tousled texture and smoky eyeshadow that really add to the overall drama of the look Unveiling the style on the red carpet of last night’s Creed 3 premiere, Maura captions an Instagram grid post of her look from the night: “Me & my new best friend….Bob”.
Fans, of course, are delighted to see Maura with the transformation, and plenty of them are taking to the comment section of the post to share their thoughts on the style. “Liz Hurley eat your heart out,” comments one, while a second says: “Of course she can pull off her bob.” A third compliments Maura’s hairstylist, Carl Bembridge, for his work: “Dream hair yet again by @carlbembridgehair literally the hairdressing god.
When you know you’ve made it.” Maura has since uploaded a second snap of the look to her Instagram Stories, captioning it: “Hey bob, nice to meet ya!” We can’t confirm yet whether this bob is a permanent new feature for the former Love Island star, but considering the reception to her chop has been so overwhelmingly positive, we imagine, if it is the work of a wig, Maura might actually consider cutting her own hair soon. In fact, that exact situation just happened with Michelle Keegan.

Chaka Khan is addressing some shade she recently threw toward other iconic singers and apologizing for feeding into the divisive drama between artists.The legendary singer took to Instagram on Sunday to respond to the backlash she faced following her appearance on magazine's podcast last week, where she dissed several other artists who were ranked higher than her on Rolling Stone's "200 Greatest Singers of All Time" list.«Recently, I was asked about a list of the 'greatest singers of all time' and instead of questioning the need for such a list, I was pitted against other artists and I took the bait,» Khan wrote in her post. «As artists, we are unfairly put into 'boxes', 'categories' or on 'lists.' Being an artist or musician is not a competition.
Anna Marie de la Fuente In a bid to give more opportunities to women directors and boost the romcom genre, Sony Pictures International has teamed up with Maria Ripoll’s Cahuenga Filmmakers and transatlantic production shingle El Estudio to launch The Love Collection, a series of romantic comedy features to be written and helmed by women. Ripoll, best known for her romcom “Ahora o nunca,” the highest-grossing femme-directed film in Spain, will serve as executive producer on all the titles, and will direct the first in the collection, “Yo no soy esa,” (roughly translated to “I’m Not That One” or “I’m Not Her”) starring Verónica Echegui (“Trust,” “You’re Killing Me, Susana”). El Estudio’s Enrique López Lavigne will serve as producer on all the titles.
At the start of this year Rolling Stone ran a list of The 200 Greatest Singers of All Time. Like all good list-making, it contained some undeniable truths (Aretha Franklin topped the poll) and some provocative decisions to get the people going. Celine Dion fans, for example, were so outraged by her not making the list in any capacity that they protested outside the publication's offices.

On top of directing her wrath at editors for creating a list she says sows division, Khan also went off on those who landed ahead of her, like Mary J. Blige.For starters, when Khan hopped on the podcast, she said she hadn't heard of the list.
