Amanda Clapham and Sophie Porley leave Hollyoaks

OHMYGOSSIP — Amanda Clapham and Sophie Porley have left ‘Hollyoaks’.
The pair’s respective characters, best friends Holly Cunningham and Ellie Nightingale, departed the village to travel the world in last night’s (13.09.18) E4 episode, and Amanda admitted it has been a “pleasure” to play Holly for five years.
She wrote on Instagram: “And we’re off!!! Who knows where they will end up?! So, so happy that Ellie and Holly have decided to take control of their lives and explore the World! It’s the end of an Era, so much has happened!?!
“Goodbye Holly, you have been a pleasure to play for the past 5 years and I am going to miss your outfits, your tantrums, your knee high socks?!?
“But most of all your family @stephwaring @ellis_hollins @hollyoaksofficial Thank you everyone for your endless support, Hollyoaks has the best fans and I appreciate all of your time and love for Holly! Time for an adventure of my own (sic)”
Sophie – who has played Ellie since October 2015 – is “grateful” for the opportunity to portray the character and has had the “time of [her] life” in the fictional Chester village.
She tweeted: “It’s true guys… GoodBye Ellie & Holly! @hollyoaksofficial
What a bloody ride that was. I have had the time of my life the last 3 years. It really is one big family, the cast and crew work so so hard to put out 5 episodes a week!
& we still love each other at the end of each day.
“I’m so so grateful for the opportunity. And thank you to each and everyone one of you that supported me and the show over the years, you guys are the best! I hope Ellie is enjoying her life of travel now All the love (sic)”
The best pal characters were both sexually assaulted by evil Nick Savage (Ben-Ryan Davies) last year.
Ellie was his first victim, but the charges were dropped when she reported him, and he went on to form a close relationship with Holly only for him to humiliate her at his graduation party and then attack her.
The hard-hitting consent story concluded when he eventually admitted to police that he assaulted the pair before being arrested and jailed.

Sherrie Hewson lost hair ‘through stress’

OHMYGOSSIP — Sherrie Hewson lost her hair “through stress”.
The ‘Benidorm’ actress has joined hair loss support group Women Warriors as an ambassador after going through her own follicle struggles, which left her having to wear wigs when she was a panellist on ‘Loose Women’.
She said: “I lost my hair through stress and I know what they are dealing with and what they are going through.
“I understand their emotion and how it feels. A woman’s hair is their crown and glory, it’s your femininity and to lose it is very stressful.
“I know what it’s like to look in the mirror, I know what they are experiencing.”
Sherrie’s hair began growing back when she started taking medication and vitamins, and she has praised members of the Sunderland-based support group – who are aiming to raise £100,000 to create a hub for other alopecia sufferers – for “embracing” their hair loss.
She said: “These women are embracing their hair loss and by doing that and understanding it, then that helps them cope.
“It’s brilliant what they are doing and I’m happy to put my name to it.”
Hannah McKay, of Women Warriors, approached Sherrie about being ambassador when she met the former ‘Coronation Street’ star at the Radio Newcastle studios.
She added to Chronicle Live: “I’m a great ‘Benidorm’ fan, so meeting Sherrie was like meeting Beyoncé for me. We told her about our Women Warriors and she opened up to us and told us about losing her hair.
“She understood what we are going through, our emotions and what it’s like to cope. We asked her if she would be an ambassador for us and she said yes.”
Sherrie quit ‘Loose Women’ in 2016 after 14 years on the lunchtime talk show, and she praised her fellow panellists for being there for her during her hair loss and other issues.
She said: “These girls have been amazing. They’ve got me through everything.”

Jack Fincham’s bedroom confession

OHMYGOSSIP — Jack Fincham has confessed he lasts “10 minutes or so” in the bedroom.
The former ‘Love Island’ star revealed how far he tends to go when he and girlfriend Dani Dyer get jiggy with it, after she had estimated he lasts around 15 minutes when they’re having fun.
During a game of Master and Miss on ‘Celebrity Juice’, host Keith Lemon asked Dani’s father Danny Dyer to pose a series of embarrassing questions to the pair.
The ‘EastEnders’ star asked his daughter how long it takes Jack to perform in the bedroom “to the nearest minute, on average?”
She replied: “Oh god, I don’t know,” and Jack said: “I can’t even make a joke, I can’t even make a joke. If I make a joke, he’s there.”
Danny then said: “You’re only cuddling ain’t ya?”
Dani nodded in agreement and then gave an answer of “15 minutes”, but an honest Jack said it was more like “10 minutes or so”.
Elsewhere on the show, Danny asked Jack what Dani calls her “lady bits”.
The former stationery salesman said: “Mate, what?”
Upon hearing Jack’s reluctance, ‘Football Factory’ star Danny said: “Good, good f***ing answer, well done. Congratulations … I like to think they’re called ‘out of bounds’ … but I know they’re not, so…”
Much to Danny’s delight, Jack replied: “I ain’t seen it, I don’t know.”
Jack previously admitted he bonded with Danny straight away, but is “scared” of his significant other’s mum Jo Mas.
He said: “I’m more scared of Dani’s mum.”
Dani added: “She is a bit scary.”
Jack and Dani got together on the latest series of ‘Love Island’ after pairing up with each other on the first day and they went on to win the show.

Idina Menzel cast alongside Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems

OHMYGOSSIP — Idina Menzel has been cast alongside Adam Sandler in ‘Uncut Gems’.
The 47-year-old actress – who voiced the part of Queen Elsa in ‘Frozen’ – has signed on to star in the new Netflix production, which will see Adam play the role of a jewellery store owner with a gambling addiction who is trying to sustain two relationships while also dealing with his increasing debts.
Idina has been cast in the role of Adam’s on-screen wife, according to Deadline, which reports that Eric Bogosian, Lakeith Stanfield and Judd Hirsch will also star in the movie.
Before Idina stars in ‘Uncut Gems’, she will be releasing her sixth album, which is due out next month, and she will then head out on tour with Josh Groban.
Idina is also involved with ‘Frozen 2’ – but she previously admitted that her new-found status as a role model hasn’t been entirely easy to cope with.
Reflecting on the impact of the first ‘Frozen’ movie, she said: “Everyone talks about me being a role model for young girls and that’s not always the truth in my day-to-day personal life. I’m not constantly practising what I preach.
“I’m a little uncomfortable carrying that banner. I’m not always ‘Oh, I feel so great about myself today. I’m a powerful, confident woman, and I’m not going to care what anyone else thinks of me!’
“I mean it’s all bull***t, really. I can be a mess. The older I get, I get wiser about some things, and yet I get more fragile and vulnerable about others.”

Jesse Eisenberg says fatherhood has eased his anxiety

OHMYGOSSIP — Jesse Eisenberg admits becoming a father has helped to ease his anxiety.
The 34-year-old actor has experienced anxiety since his childhood, but Jesse has revealed that welcoming a son into the world in April 2017 with his wife Anna Strout has transformed his life.
He shared: “Just selfishly, having a child is the best thing anyone can do for their own anxiety, if your anxiety is like mine, which is to say based in fantasy.
“Because I spent the first 30 years worrying about things that were invisible, and now I get to worry about something that’s visible, and there’s nothing that’s more mentally healthy than worrying about something that’s actually existing in the world, rather than worrying about something that doesn’t exist at all.”
Jesse admitted that having a son has also helped him to adopt a more philosophical approach towards his career.
Speaking to the Guardian newspaper, the Hollywood star explained: “I don’t think I care any less about my work, or like it any less – in some ways, I like it more, because it’s my one opportunity to get away for a few minutes!
“But I do think if humans have the unconscious desire at all to be immortal, maybe that feeling of immortality is being accounted for in another way through their children, rather than through their work, so maybe it takes the pressure off that.”

The D-Day Darlings sign major record deal

OHMYGOSSIP — Britain’s Got Talent finalists The D-Day Darlings have received a nod from Dame Vera Lynn after signing a record deal with Sony Music UK.
The all-female group – who came fourth on the ITV talent show this year – are set to release their debut album ‘I’ll Remember You’ two days before the centenary of Armistice Day on November 9, and they the 101-year-old wartime singer has given them her backing.
Vera – who is widely known as ‘the Forces Sweetheart’ – said: “I am pleased to support The D-Day Darlings.”
Their first record features the military suit-wearing singers’ renditions of Vera’s wartime classics ‘There’ll Be Bluebirds Over (The White Cliffs Of Dover)’ and ‘We’ll Meet Again’.
There are also two original songs in the form of the album title track and ‘Mary’ – a tribute to Mary Ellis, the last female spitfire pilot who passed away in July, aged 105.
The record has been produced by Little Mix producer Tim Woodcock.
Katie Ashby formed The D-Day Darlings – who impressed judges David Walliams, Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon with their show-stopping performances on ‘BGT’ – in 2008, with the aim to celebrate the true spirit of wartime and the music of that era.
The group – who have grown from a trio to a band of nine – intended to give the old songs a “new injection of life”, but still staying true to the “legacy” of the original sound.
Katie said: “This centenary year was the perfect time to audition for BGT, to be able to perform this iconic music on such a huge platform in honour of our heroes, including our own grandparents, was incredible. Our mission is to keep the wartime spirit alive and into the new generation. Collaborating with Tim Woodcock was an exciting step to help me achieve this musically. We’ve given the songs a new injection of life, while still retaining the legacy of their original sound. We are thrilled to be signed to Sony Music and we are dedicating our debut album to all those who fought for our freedom.”
The D-Day Darlings’ debut album ‘I’ll Remember You’ will be released on November 9.
The tracklisting for ‘I’ll Remember You’ is as follows:
1.’There’ll Be Bluebirds Over (The White Cliffs Of Dover)’

6. ‘Rule Britannia / Land Of Hope and Glory’
7. ‘Keep The Home Fires Burning’
8.’The Dambusters’
9.’Don’t Sit Under The Apple Tree’
10. ‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow’
11. ‘I’ll Remember You’
12. ‘Mary’

Paul Weller: Rock has become niche

OHMYGOSSIP — Paul Weller thinks rock music has become “niche”.
The 60-year-old ‘Modfather’ believes grime has become the leading genre with something to say and that the days of kids starting up bands – like he did in The Jam – with the intention of “changing the world” are long gone.
Recalling a conversation he had with his pal Noel Gallagher on the topic, he told The Daily Star newspaper: “I’ve always had that romantic notion of being in a band.
“I still do in some ways. But Noel Gallagher said this, and he’s right, the days of kids from a council estate getting a band together and wanting to change the world are gone, really.
“You’re more likely to find that in the grime scene than in pop or whatever.
“But four young geezers off an estate, you don’t really see that at all.
“And I don’t think it ever will come round again. Not like The Jam or Oasis. I think it’s just changed.”
On rock becoming less popular like jazz music did, he said: “I was talking to this fella the other day about the same thing with jazz, how one time that was the most popular music but now it’s a very niche thing.
“It’s still there but you can never call it popular music. Maybe it’s the same with rock ‘n’ roll? “It’s had its time.”
Paul has teamed up with former Oasis star Noel on a track for his new album ‘True Meanings’
Previous collaborations with the ‘Wonderwall’ hitmaker include ‘Echoes Round the Sun’ on Weller’s 2008 LP ’22 Dreams’ and ‘Birth of an Accidental Hipster’, which they co-wrote for The Monkees’ 2016 album ‘Good Times!’.
Weller also featured on Noel’s latest solo album, ‘Who Built the Moon?, playing the organ on ‘Holy Mountain’.
Other guest appearances on ‘True Meanings’ come from Rod Argent of the Zombies playing Hammond organ on ‘The Soul Searchers’ and piano and Mellotron on ‘White Horses’; folk legends Martin Carthy and Danny Thompson adding picked guitar and double bass respectively to ‘Come Along’; Little Barrie taking lead guitar on ‘Old Castles’; Lucy Rose singing back-up vocals on ‘Books’; and ‘Movin On’ is the result of a “scratchy demo” on Paul’s phone that was sent to Tom Doyle of the White Label project.
The record also surprisingly contains four songs which have lyrics penned by other writers to Weller’s melodies and music.
Connor O’Brien from Villagers came up with the words to opener ‘The Soul Searchers’, while ‘Bowie’, ‘Wishing Well’ and the closing ‘White Horses’ are all the lyrical work of Erland Cooper from Erland & The Carnival.
Speaking about the album previously, Weller said: “It’s got an acoustic guitar on it but if that makes it a folk album, I really don’t know. It’s just about songs, voice and guitar essentially, and there are some tracks that have been orchestrated, strings and brass.”
‘True Meanings’ is out now.

Chrissy Teigen launches new line for Target

OHMYGOSSIP — Chrissy Teigen is launching a new line for Target.
The 32-year-old model and cookbook author is set to branch out into kitchenware later this month, as her new line of kitchen and tabletop goods – entitled Cravings by Chrissy Teigen – will make its way to Target stores on September 30.
Despite the range being based on items to help in the kitchen, the ‘Lip Sync Battle’ host was inspired for the line by the start of her modelling career when she shot for the Target catalogue in her first gig as a model.
She said in an interview on Target’s website: “I remember they cast a younger girl as my little sister. We shot the campaign in an inflatable above-ground pool and I pretended my ‘little sister’ was spraying me with a hose. I think it was used in Target’s weekly ads, but I’ve actually never seen the photo. Please find it for me, Target.”
Cravings by Chrissy Teigen is comprised of 40 items, ranging from $4 for glasses to $140 for a 12-piece cookware set.
Before the launch of the full line, Target will also release a special edition of Teigen’s book ‘Cue Cravings: Hungry for More’ with exclusive recipes, on September 18.
For Chrissy – who has daughter Luna, two, and son Miles, three months, with her husband John Legend – the new range comes after she recently collaborated with Becca Cosmetics for a second time, in the brand’s new limited-edition Endless Summer Glow collection which launched this summer.
The collection included a three-in-one compact featuring a highlighter and new bronzer, three new Glow Gloss shades, and a body oil.
And Chrissy revealed at the time that her daughter Luna plays a huge part in the testing of new products, as she loves the feel of makeup brushes.
She said: “Luna is obsessed with sitting on my countertop in the bathroom. She’ll go, ‘Up, up, up,’ I put her up there and she loves brushes, using them on her face. Becca sends us tons of clean brushes all the time, so she’s always using them.”

Lena Dunham goes naked to promote inclusivity

OHMYGOSSIP — Lena Dunham would rather go naked than promote exclusivity in fashion.
The 32-year-old actress has distanced herself from her recent collaboration with Revolve after a range of sweatshirts released by the retailer was accused of fat-shaming, and she has now claimed she will only associate with brands which cater for all women.
The ‘Girls’ star – alongside Emily Ratajkowksi, Cara Delevingne, Suki Waterhouse and Paloma Elsesser – had paired up with the label to launch a collection of clothing emblazoned with insults; however a jumper which read “being fat is not beautiful it’s an excuse” was posted to the website early with no explanation, sparking outrage at the way it seemingly slammed those who are overweight.
Lena has now vocalised her distaste for the brand, as she posted a photo on Instagram on Friday (14.09.18) of her lying down naked in the shower while sipping from a coffee cup.
She wrote: “Hi, don’t mind me! Just showering lying down with my Starbucks cup full of La Croix (not sponsored.) In response to the sweatshirt debacle of yesterday, I’ve had some amazing dialogue with other women about representation, reclaiming negativity and size inclusive clothing brands.
“I follow some incredible fashion bloggers/designers who highlight this (not even tagging the models, actors and “influencers” who inspire me in the confidence dept) and have tagged a bunch of my true faves.
“But I want to hear from you! Because for my upcoming TV appearances -it’s gonna be a bad fall for those who hate me- I’ll be only repping brands that cater to ALL women. Can you @ me with your favorites and my girl @marissaconqueso and I will get to work sharing our picks? I’d rather go naked than promote exclusivity.” (sic)
The body-positive actress was flooded with comments from fans sharing their favourite inclusive designers and labels.
One user wrote: “Some of my favourite pieces were done by @bethditto but she’s on a music break right now. Well cut amazing pieces. Also British designer @annascholz does great occasion wear pieces.” (sic)

Duchess Meghan’s make-up artist wanted Harry to ‘see her’

OHMYGOSSIP — Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’s make-up artist wanted Prince Harry to “see her” on their wedding day.
The 37-year-old royal – who was known as Meghan Markle before joining the royal family – tied the knot with the 33-year-old Prince in May, and her makeup artist Daniel Martin has revealed he went for a natural look because he didn’t want her beauty to be overshadowed by heavy makeup.
In an interview with Vogue, he said: “The last thing I wanted Harry to look at was her make-up; I wanted him to see her.
“They’re so affectionate and the last thing I’d want to do is prevent that happening because she has a red lip on. It’s almost like a stop sign!”
The Dior ambassador admitted that his choice to go for a minimal look was controversial among fans, however the former actress was pleased with the decision because she wanted “her wedding day to be about her”.
He said: “I mean it was interesting because I did get dragged on my Instagram about not using enough make-up on her, but I think what a lot of people don’t think about is because she was a working actress and she did red carpet in her career, she wanted her wedding day to be about her.
“I think on her wedding day she just wanted to be herself.”
Although the pair have worked together for years, Daniel was not able to find the time to test out the former ‘Suits’ star’s make-up before her big day.
He added: “When she asked me in December I knew I was going to be in Paris for Dior in March so I was like, ‘I’m going to get the train in and we can do your make-up test then and then we’ll catch up’.
“But then the day I came into London it was snowing so I was late seeing her because of the train delays, and when I saw her we just wouldn’t shut up, so then I was like, ‘oh I need to catch the train back to Paris!'”

Professor Green quit Celebs in Solitary hours before the end

OHMYGOSSIP — Professor Green quit ‘Celebs in Solitary’ just hours before the experiment was due to finish.
The 34-year-old rapper had seemed to adjust well to life in his Belfast cell on the Channel 5 reality show – which sees stars put in solitary confinement for an experiment – but decided to leave during Wednesday’s episode (12.09.18).
Pro – who was joined by Anthea Turner, Shazia Mirza and Eddie Hall on the intense programme – hit the red button to signal to producers his desire to leave the cell after the episode was focused on punishing the celebrities.
Although he said he felt “really good” about his decision to quit, he did making an emotional phone call to his nan afterwards to tell her he was safe and coped well enough in his surroundings.
Over the first three days the stars got used to their new environment, Pro – whose real name is Stephen Manderson – kept himself busy writing lyrics non-stop.
He also had time for self-reflection, and had some existential questions as he stayed in isolation.
He pondered: “Is it weird that I’m thinking more about what’s going on in the other cabins than what I’m thinking about in the world I’d normally exist in?”
Pro knew he was close to the end when he left, which led to some suggesting the show could be a fix.
But presenter George Lamb explained the celebrities had kept track of their food and knew when they were eating their “last supper”.
‘Celebs in Solitary’ – which is airing on the three nights between Celebrity Big Brother’s conclusion (10.09.18) and the new ‘Big Brother’ series on Friday (14.09.18) – concludes on Thursday September (13.09.18) at 9pm on Channel 5.
One more star will quit before the experiment concludes.

OHMYGOSSIP — Kelly Brook will die on her wedding day in ‘Midsomer Murders’.

According to the Daily Star newspaper, Kelly has already filmed her part in the hit series alongside Neil Dudgeon, who plays DCI John Barnaby.
In the episode, entitled ‘Till Death Do Us Part’, the detective will head to a family friend’s wedding, but disaster strikes when Kelly’s bride alter-ego is killed.
The ‘Loose Women’ panellist will turn up in Midsomer briefly at some point later this year, but the exact date is yet to be revealed.
Kelly has been wanted by show bosses for some time after confessing her love for the series.

Eninem explains why he dissed Machine Gun Kelly

OHMYGOSSIP — Eminem says he dissed Machine Gun Kelly because he accused him of hindering his career.
The ‘River’ rapper has explained that he released the track ‘Not Alike’, which includes the line, “Now you wanna come and f**k with me, huh? / This little c**k-sucker, he must be feeling himself”, after the 28-year-old star rapped about banning him from his radio station ‘Shade 45 and claimed he was trying to meddle with his success.
However, Eminem insists that he’s not interested in the ‘Bad Things’ hitmaker’s career, whilst adding fuel to the fire by saying there are “better” rappers out there than him.
In the second part of his YouTube interview with musician Sway, the ‘Without Me’ hitmaker explained: “The reason that I dissed him is because he got on – first he said, ‘I’m the greatest rapper alive since my favourite rapper banned me from ‘Shade 45,’ or whatever he said, right? Like I’m trying to hinder his career.
“I don’t give a f**k about your career. You think I actually f***in’ think about you? You know how many f***in’ rappers that are better than you? You’re not even in the f***in’ conversation.”
Eminem also brought up Kelly’s line on Tech N9ne’s song ‘No Reason (The Mosh Pit Song)’, in which he claimed that Eminem is “just rap and not God”.
The ‘Lose Yourself’ hitmaker says that though he felt he needed to respond, he doesn’t want to make his “f***ing enemy” a “bigger” star by creating headlines.
He said: “Now I’m in this f***in’ weird thing, because I’m like, ‘I gotta answer this motherf***er.’
“And every time I do that, it makes that person – as ‘irrelevant’ as people say I am in hip-hop – I make them bigger by getting into this thing, where I’m like ‘I want to destroy him. But I also don’t want to make him bigger.’ You know what I’m saying?
“Because now you’re a fucking enemy’ […] I’ll leave it at that. I’m not sure exactly what I’m going to do at this point right now.”
However, he did admit that he thought his rival’s comeback diss track ‘Red Devil’ was quite good, saying: “It wasn’t bad for him. He’s got some good lines in it.”
The second part of his interview with Sway comes after he admitted his beef with Kelly isn’t about him calling his daughter Hailie “hot as f**k” in 2012.
The ‘Lose Yourself’ rapper teased that his problem with the 28-year-old star is “a lot more petty” than anything he’s ever said about the 22-year-old beauty on Twitter, after he hit back with ‘Not Alike’ on his surprise record ‘Kamikaze’ last month.
He explained: “You know you go down the wormhole of YouTube and whatever, right?
“So I see, ‘Machine Gun Kelly talks about Eminem’s daughter’ or whatever, right? So I’m like, ‘What the f***?’ I clicked on it. Then he starts doing a press run, basically, about Hailie. I’m like, ‘What the f***? Yo, my man better chill.’
“So, that’s not why I dissed him. The reason I dissed him is actually a lot more petty than that. Now I’m in this f***in’ weird thing, because I’m like, ‘I’ve got to answer this motherf***er.'”
Eminem is already back in the studio after MGK released his diss track ‘Rap Devil’ in response to ‘Not Alike’.

The ‘Le Freak’ hitmaker recalled: “Anderson .Paak and I – we had a few days, and he was opening for [Bruno Mars] while he was in the UK.
“And Bruno was like, ‘Damn, I gotta stop by and hang with y’all.’
“So we sat around telling great Prince stories and finally we got down, and Bruno came up with an idea and said, ‘Damn, I wonder why nobody’s done this.’ So we decided to get down and do it.”

John Legend wants to make life better

OHMYGOSSIP — John Legend hopes his work makes “people’s lives a little better”.
The 39-year-old singer – who has children Luna, three, and two-year-old Miles with wife Chrissy Teigen – is very happy with his life and wants his “art” to bring joy to others too.
He said: “I love being a father, [and] I love being a husband.

At the weekend, the ‘All of Me’ hitmaker became one of the elite group of artists to achieve the EGOT – winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award – when he picked up a Creative Arts Emmy for his work as producer on ‘Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert’ but he’s crediting his achievement to his friend and collaborator Common, who he worked with on ‘Glory’, their Academy Award-winning song from 2014 drama ‘Selma’.
He told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “I wouldn’t have an EGOT without Common. [It wouldn’t have been possible] without ‘Selma’ and that song.”
Meanwhile Common – who, as well as his Oscar, also has an Emmy and three Grammies – has praised his “inspiring” friend for his achievement.
He gushed: “It’s really surreal. I mean, it’s inspiring. I believe he’s the first black male to get that EGOT status and that’s just amazing.
“To even know somebody that has an EGOT is incredible… I’m just grateful.”
Meanwhile, the ‘Love Me Now’ singer recently admitted Chrissy “inspires” him to be a better father.
Speaking about his relationship with the ‘Lip Sync Battle’ star, he said: “We inspire each other. She inspires my songs, she inspires me to want to be a better husband and a better father. We support each other fully in everything that we do. I root for her in her career and everything she’s doing.
“And I expect that she’ll be up here winning Emmys herself for all the awesome work that she does. She’s such a dynamic, vibrant personality, and I’ve fallen in love with her a long time before the rest of America did. But now America’s fallen in love with her too, and she inspires me every day.”
