A Woman You Should Meet: Edy Ganem - Sharp magazine

A Woman You Should Meet: Edy Ganem

You may not be familiar with her now, but Edy Ganem is the stunning vision on the show, Devious Maids. While not quite as rebellious as her character Valentina, the California-born travel addict can admit that she’s committed some devious acts in the past. Here, she talks romance, working with producer Eva Longoria and sneaking off to Tijuana.

The singer can be seen looking into the dressing table mirror as she held onto the strands of the wavy blonde wig.
    With a fringe cut into the hairpiece, the singer seemed to be inspecting the new look as she captioned the shot: ‘Love playing dress up at photo shoots’.
    Nicole appeared to be wearing a red halter neck bodysuit while she sported naturally looking make-up.

    The star has been busy working on her second album, as she told Digital Spy: ‘I've just worked with The Dream and Tricky and it is cohesive, we've created a sound. We found a sound. We found a Nicole sound.’
    She added: ‘So when you hear a couple of the songs you'll be like, “Woah, that doesn't sound like any other artist out there. Any other formula of song out there. Any other beat out there.”' 
    While eager fans await the release, Nicole released her latest single Your Love on May 31.
    Debut: The singer showed off her new locks on Instagram as she captioned the shot: 'New hair! New opportunities! I love #NewYorkCity!'

    As for why she decided to release that song first, Nicole explained: ‘It's actually unlike any other song on my new album. It's more poppy.’
    She said: ‘The other songs are pop, but they're more urban-pop. I just remember the feeling I got when I went back to my room and I just couldn't stop singing the song. It had a hold on me.’
    Earlier this month, the Don't Cha songstress signed a new record deal with Epic Records with the company tweeting, 'Welcome to the Epic family [Nicole]', with a photo of owner L.A. Reid and the entertainer.
    Hard at work: While eager fans await the release of her new album, Nicole released her latest single, Your Love, on May 31

    Bald move! Bates Motel actress Olivia Cooke shaves her head to play cancer patient in new film


    She's an up and coming actress making a name for herself in Hollywood.
    And for her next role Bates Motel star Olivia Cooke has shorn off her luscious locks for an entirely new and hairless look.
    The 20-year-old British actress showed off her freshly shaved head at Comic Con in San Diego on Friday, even posting an Instagram snap as friends rubbed her scalp for good luck.

    Olivia also had a role in science fiction film The Signal opposite Lawrence Fishburne and Brenton Thwaites in June.
    But her new look is for a far graver role, one that could launch her as a serious actress in Hollywood.
    Olivia plays a girl named Rachel who is dying from cancer in the film adaptation of Me & Earl & The Dying Girl.

    The film has yet to set a release date.

    • Fitness fan and former Casualty star, 29, is the new face of USA Pro
    • Actress says she loves pizza and put on 5lbs while on holiday
    • Ditched glamour shoots but returns to modelling for sportswear brand
    She said she still loves eating doughnuts and pizza but you'd never guess with that ripped physique.
    Showing off her incredible figure Gemma Atkinson, who is known for her love of working out, is the perfect face and body to front a sportswear campaign.
    The 29-year-old former Casualty star models USA Pro's limited edition prints collection, which comes out next week.

    And while Gemma admits to indulging in the odd naughty meal, she knows when to stop.
    'I love a pizza or doughnuts as much as the next person but I tend to have them as a cheat meal as opposed to a cheat day,' she told the Daily Star.
    'If I'm having pizza for tea I'll still eat clean for breakfast or lunch.'
      The actress even said she put on 5lbs during her recent holiday to Bali with personal trainer boyfriend Olly Foster - but she still managed to look incredible on the beach.
      While she's still happy to pose in front of the camera for fashion shoots, Gemma famously turned her back on glamour modelling.

      She recently wrote on her blog: 'I decided to stop glamour modelling about two years ago. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it or appreciate the work I got from it, I just felt I had done enough. 
      'I featured on every lads mag cover here in the UK numerous times and also a few in Australia and America.
      'I have been extremely lucky and I'm extremely grateful, however I have been acting since I was 14 years old and that's my passion.'
      Gemma recently put her training to good use when she took part in the Great Manchester Cycle last week, completing 52 miles for the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.
      The Bury-born star has also completed the Great Manchester Run twice before, once for The Christie and once for the New Children's Hospital appeal.

      Prince Harry tops list of celebrities Brits most want to go on holiday with ... while under 12s pick Rihanna and Harry Styles

      Prince Harry tops list of celebrities Brits most want to go on holiday with ... while under 12s pick Rihanna and Harry Styles

      • Duchess of Cambridge also popular with both sexes, but not Prince William
      • Holly Willoughby tops the poll with men and is eighth with women
      • Brooklyn Beckham is second on the list for both boys and girls
      It's rare for men and women to agree on a holiday, but they do share the view that Prince Harry would be a top holiday companion.
      The royal redhead is the person most women want to take away with them, ahead of serial poll-topper George Clooney and Stephen Fry, in a survey commissioned by British Airways Holidays.
      Holly Willoughby is the top choice for men (and number eight with women), followed by actresses Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston, and Jeremy Clarkson in fourth.
      Holiday royalty: The public figure men and women agree would be great to take on holiday is Prince Harry

      Top choice: 22 per cent of the adults surveyed said they wanted to go away with Prince Harry

      Both sexes are also on the same page when it comes to wanting to take the Duchess of Cambridge away, but no such luck for her husband Prince William who doesn't crack the top 10 in either list.
      Although where the couple go does have an impact on trends. 
        'We often see a rise in the number of bookings to a particular destination after a Royal visit or when it’s named as a celebrity hot-spot,' said Claire Bentley, British Airways Holidays’ managing director, citing Australia as the most significant example of a booming destination after the royal couple's recent tour Down Under.

        On a list of 57 celebrities to chose from, the future king was 26th with men and 15th with women. 
        When it comes to kids dream celebrity holiday pals, they lean towards celebrity royalty instead of the real ones. Boys aged 5-12 in the poll most want to vacation with Rihanna while girls in the same age bracket have Harry Styles at the top of their list. 
        Brooklyn Beckham, the oldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, is popular with both boys and girls finishing second in each list while Katy Perry is third from a selection of 27 kids' favourites.
