For Vera's new cover story, queen of comedy Melissa McCarthy tells me about starting out in drag, honing her characters and how it all led to playing "dishy broad" Ursula in the new Little Mermaid. Get your tentacles on a copy on @virginatlantic all this month.

To begin with, all d4vd wanted was to make a couple of songs so that YouTube would stop taking down his Fortnite videos. He googled how to make music on an iPhone, downloaded an app, recorded in his sister's closet in Houston and now the 18 year-old is hitting the Top 40 all over the planet. Is this the future of the music industry? My new cover story for @nmemagazine

The most beautiful Ibizan wedding for the most beautiful couple, Hannah and Eliza. Felt lucky to be there, and lucky to know them. Gorgeous, gorgeous 📸 by @divinedayphotography

For Lisa Rinna, the secret to beauty is simple. ‘Find out what makes you happy, and do that,’ she says sagely. We’re sitting by the pool at the Beverly Hills Hotel, beneath towering palm trees and clear blue LA skies. She sips her iced tea and looks at me through the yellowy-tint of her oversized Tom Ford shades. ‘Listen,’ she drawls, ‘I don’t care how much work you have done, if you’re a fucking miserable cunt… nothing’s gonna help you, honey!’ // Had an outrageously good time with @lisarinna for the new @esmagazine Beauty Issue.
