Maxim Australia has released its annual Hot 100 list for 2023, showcasing the most successful and beautiful women in entertainment, sport and pop culture.

Topping the list is actress Margot Robbie, 33, whose Hollywood career continues to shine following the release of her latest film Barbie.

Barbie became Warner Bros’ highest domestic grossing film ever making $537million at the US box office and earning a total of $1.2billion in cinemas around the world.

It marks the second year in a row and the record fourth time that Robbie has topped the Hot 100.

Matildas soccer star Sam Kerr also made the list in second place followed by Delta Goodrem and Sophie Monk.

Margot Robbie topped the Maxim Hot 100 for the second year in a row alongside Sophie Monk, Delta Goodrem and Abbie Chatfield.

Former Bachelor star and podcaster Abbie Chatfield, 28, landed at ninth place, while Married At First Sight star Evelyn Ellis made the list in 10th place.

Meanwhile, Kayne West’s wife Bianca Censori came in at 18th place on the list.

The couple have been making headlines following their lengthy vacation in Italy, which saw scandalous ensembles to an indecent exposure controversy.

The Voice Australia host Sonia Kruger landed in at number 36 while Nicole Kidman was placed in at 48th.

Just a few positions down from Kidman is KIIS FM presenter Jackie ‘O’ Henderson, who clocked in at 60th.

She is regarded as Australia’s most successful woman in radio thanks to her 21-year run hosting Sydney’s top FM breakfast show with Kyle Sandilands.

Also included on the list is pop princess Kylie Minogue at 59th position, and actress Rebel Wilson at number 35.

Maxim’s list also includes several prominent TV presenters, including Amanda Keller, Carrie Bickmore, Sandra Sully and Georgie Tunny.

Nollywood star Iyabo Ojo has confirmed that a fire broke out at her office in Lagos on Tuesday evening, destroying parts of the property and several valuables.

The actress shared a video on Instagram showing the aftermath of the blaze—smoke-stained walls, scorched furniture, and charred debris scattered across the staircase and office space.

“This just happened today the 8th of July 2025, around 7pm. My office building caught fire,” she wrote.

Ojo praised the Nigerian Fire Service for their swift response, which helped contain the flames before they could cause further damage.

“Thank you to the Nigerian Fire service and my staff for salvaging what was left. Thankfully no lives were lost. The devil tested us today but God said no.

“With God on my side we will bounce back bigger and better,” she added.

She also thanked her team, describing the experience as shocking but expressing relief that no one was hurt.

The exact cause of the fire is yet to be determined.

This incident comes just months after a similar tragedy struck fellow actress Mercy Aigbe, whose Lagos home was destroyed by fire in December 2024.

Afrobeats sensation, Tiwa Savage, has opened up about the emotional rollercoaster of motherhood, describing it as both challenging and deeply fulfilling.

In a heartfelt video shared via her Instagram story, the award-winning singer shared a touching experience involving her son, Jamil Balogun. Tiwa revealed that after scolding him for misbehaving, she was taken aback by his quiet response.

“I expected him to be upset. But instead, he came to sit beside me on the couch, just seeking comfort.”

The moment, Tiwa explained, reminded her of the deep emotional connection between a mother and her child, and how those little gestures can make even the toughest parenting moments worthwhile.

“Last night, I was reminded of one of the hardest things about being a mom: you still have to discipline your child and be strict, even when it breaks your heart.

“I’m a very, very strict mother. Everyone knows this. But last night, I went off on him. And this is why he melts my heart so much… I woke up and saw that he had quietly come to sleep next to me. I had slept on the couch, and he still came to lie beside me, my baby. I was shouting earlier… ahhh. Yet he still came close, seeking comfort,” she said.

Tiwa concluded by expressing how, despite the difficulties, motherhood remains the most rewarding experience in her life.

“Being a mother is tough. But it’s also the best feeling in the world,” she added.

Linc Edochie Told Me His Ex-wife Cheated On Him, Smokes Weed – Yinka Theisen [VIDEO]

Yinka Theisen has disclosed that she started a relationship with Linc Edochie after he told her that his estranged wife cheated on him.

Edochie got married to his estranged wife, Amaka Paula, in December 2010, and they shared two children together.

In May 2025, Linc Edochie got engaged to his new partner, Yinka Theisen.

A month after their engagement, Linc broke up with Yinka for getting involved in Queen May and Yul Edochie’s divorce drama on social media.

However, reacting to the controversy in an interview with actor Uche Maduagwu, Yinka Theisen narrated that she started a relationship with Linc after he accused his ex-wife of cheating on him and smoking weed.

“What Linc did to me, I’m shocked. I can’t lie to you, I’m shocked. This is a man a lot of people don’t know, the family (Edochie) had a tragic event recently. And I was there for him. I came to stay with him in Lagos, I supported him. I will just leave it at that because it’s a sensitive thing, and I don’t want to bring out a family secret that a lot of people don’t know about.

“I started a relationship with him after he told me a very, very sad thing about how his wife was sleeping around in Abuja with all the Alhajis, all these things I have text messages of and that she’s a weed head. She smokes weed every day, and that she withdraws the medication of their last child that had seizures.

“So we became very close in the sense of just emotionally supporting him because I couldn’t believe that a woman would repeatedly cheat on such an awesome man.”
