Elliot Page praised by stars as he proudly shows off ‘first pair of swim trunks’
Elliot Page has been able to proudly show off his beach body for the first time.
The trans actor posted a photo of his six-pack for his 5.2million followers and celebrated the moment after undergoing surgery to have breasts removed.
Elliot captioned his post: ‘Trans bb’s first swim trunks #transisbeautiful.’
Miley Cyrus was among the famous names to applaud the post, dubbing the 34-year-old actor ‘hot’.
British actress Jameela Jamil said he was ‘thriving’.
It was a personal milestone for the former Oscar nominee following the surgery.
‘Getting out of the shower and the towel’s around your waist and you’re looking at yourself in the mirror and you’re just like, “There I am”… and I’m not having the moment where I’m panicked,’ Elliot said.
‘It’s being able to feel comfortable in my body for probably the first time.’
Chloe aims to say it with Flower
It’s Flower power! Rising talent Chloe Flower is stepping out from behind the shadows of Cardi B and Barack Obama to release a new single.
The 35-year-old American composer is tackling Asian hate with her hybrid music that she calls ‘popsicle’.
Chloe danced with the former US president at his inauguration and stole the show while playing piano for Cardi at the Grammys two years ago. As for her own single, called Tamie, she said: ‘It’s a celebration of our Asian heritage and culture.’
Posing in a floral print dress in a majestic ‘classical Chinese garden’, she added: ‘As our communities are being targeted with anti-Asian rhetoric and violence, now is the time to celebrate Asian-American pride, culture and the positive impact our community has had on the world.’
Chloe wants to let the music do the talking — there are no lyrics — but she aims to give people hope as life robs them of opportunities.
‘I was thinking about the life cycle,’ she explained. ‘You start with innocence; born with a clean state.
‘Throughout life, there is suffering which hardens you. But there’s always hope for something better.’
Tamie is out now and the album drops on July 16.
Raff keeps his famous dad outer the band
He’s a Law unto himself — actor Jude’s son Rafferty insists on paying his own way as he chases the rock star dream with Damon Albarn’s nephew Rudy.
The celebukids form half of band Outer Stella Overdrive, but instead of borrowing a studio from the Blur frontman, they prefer to have a whip round with their bandmates Jamin Amin and Kelvin Bueno.
‘I would never ask my parents to give me money to put into the band,’ said Raff, 24.
‘We are all equal, and we all find a tenner to pay to put together for the studio.’
