In them, she enjoyed time at the beaches in Australia. In some of them, she posed in a white bathing suit and skirt.

1. She’s Confident

Townend is all about body positivity. She encouraged others to do so in the caption of this Instagram post. “Don’t spend your life waiting for your body to look ‘perfect’, all the while missing out on buying the dress you love because it’s not the size you want on the label, or skipping the holiday because you don’t want to stand next to your skinny friends.”

2. She’s Driven

Townend decided to return to her job after shooting Love Island. She opened up about her decision to Grazia. “During Love Island I was on sabbatical from work, with the intention always being that I would return to my job,” she said. “I’m very career driven and have invested a huge amount of time and dedication into building my career, I’ve climbed the corporate ladder, and my career continues to be very important to me.”

3. She Wants To Be A Role Model

Townend tells Grazia that she wants to inspire her fans. “It’s important that I send a positive message out to young people who perceive Instagram or other creative careers as the only measure of success,” she says. “Good jobs and careers all look different to different people. So long as you are in a role that you firstly enjoy, where you feel like you are actively contributing, and continue to grow and develop, you're in a very good career.”

4. She Horseback Rides

Townend loves to spend time with animals. One thing she likes to do is ride horses. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself riding in Brecon. She captioned it, “AP McCoy is out of retirement.” Townend also shared these photos of herself riding in Sunset Ranch Hollywood. She captioned it, “Only fools and horses.”

5. She’s All About Kindness

Townend believes in kindness. She shared this post on Instagram celebrating World Kindness Day. She captioned it, “A philanthropic duty point to anyone who gives someone a compliment today. Double it if they’re a stranger. Points redeemable in heaven.”

Georgia Steel, the Love Island Star, just posed in a swimsuit, and her fans went bonkers accordingly. “🦄💕🦋☀️🌸,” she captioned the colorful image. "We here," she captioned another. “WOW 🙌 BODY GOALS 🔥,” said one fan and commenter. “Stunning perfection,” said another. In fact, her comments were flooded with fire emojis. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Georgia Steel stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She Focuses On Herself

After Steel ended her romance with her Love Island co-star, Callum Izzard, she decided to focus on herself. She said on FUBAR Radio, “I just want some time now to just focus on myself and I’m not really wanting to rush into anything. I’m just wanting to take every day as it comes!” “Expectations help you plan for what's coming up and can make you feel excited about the future,” says the Mayo Clinic. “But they can also lead to disappointment and frustration when your expectations aren't met and your hopes are dashed. And when they involve another person, misaligned expectations can diminish the quality of relationships.”

2. She Rolls With The Punches

Steel tells FUBAR Radio that she doesn’t let things bring her down. Instead, she just embraces whatever life throws at her. “I’m a good believer in everything happens for a reason,” she says. “I’m just rolling with it.” “Letting go of certain expectations can be hard. But it doesn't mean lowering them. There's a difference. You're not saying it will never be; you're saying this is where things are at right now,” says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Goes Swimming

Steel loves to go swimming as a way to stay in shape. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself by the pool and in the water. She posted this set of photos of herself at a beach in Dubai. She also posted this photo of herself by the pool, captioning it, “You wanna be part of this vibe.”

4. She Has Experienced Loneliness

“Before Love Island I was a student making dinner off £2 but now I have a lovely TV, glass lights and a big mirror in a beautiful flat, my life has completely changed. But one thing I must say is that money does not buy happiness. The last few weeks I have been the lowest I have ever been since leaving the villa. Your highs are high but your lows are very low. It is a different lifestyle. I could be filming for the day and surrounded by people saying my name but then I go back to my empty flat on my own and it hits me,” she said after leaving Love Island, according to the Sun.

5. She Works Hard and Rests Hard

“I get up at 11 if I can, honestly, I am not a morning person at all, but I'm funny. Like I'll have days where I just wanna chill, which I've literally just got back into now because I never used to be able to have chill days. And at the moment now, I think it's really important to schedule them chill days in, just for yourself mentally, physically, everything. I just think you need some time to just focus on yourself. Otherwise it can get a bit too much, but I do love working when I get into it. Boom, boom, boom, boom,” she told On Demand Entertainment.

On the Showtime hit series Yellowjackets, every one of the young stars is a breakout. But one may look more familiar than others: Ella Purnell has been working since age 9, appearing in films like Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Army of the Dead, as well as the TV series Sweetbitter. Now, the 25-year-old Brit (yes, she’s British!) is finally getting the mega-fans she deserves. And she took a trip to Barbados to decompress. “I made my mum take these,” she captioned some photos of her in a blue bathing suit. “STOP IT,” commented her costar Sophie Nélisse. “Stop. STOOOP.” Added Melanie Lynskey, also of the show: “Hahaha (also GOOD LORD you are gorgeous!!!)” Read on to see 5 ways Ella Purnell stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She Works Out, Sometimes With Her Mom

“Working out with mama!” Purnell captioned a pic of the two in a gym. “Exercise and physical activity can be enjoyable. They give you a chance to unwind, enjoy the outdoors or simply engage in activities that make you happy. Physical activity can also help you connect with family or friends in a fun social setting,” says the Mayo Clinic. “So take a dance class, hit the hiking trails or join a soccer team. Find a physical activity you enjoy, and just do it. Bored? Try something new, or do something with friends or family.”

2. She Trained for an Action Movie

For the movie Army of the Dead: “I went to the gym and did boxing lessons with my stepdad, but I’m just not that way inclined. I’ve got the upper-body strength of a spoon and I’m not very coordinated. I’d get told off because if I try to look cool, I’m doing something else weird with my limbs. When I was running, if I’m holding my gun with one hand, I’m doing gun hands with the other [laughs]. We spent time with these two nice ex-army dudes. They taught us how to shoot, move as a team and have each other’s backs,” she told Vogue.

3. Here are Sage Words About Mental Health

“I didn’t realise that with this support system that I’ve relied on to be there for me—my friends and family who love me and who I love—sometimes you have to tell them you love them. Now what I’m finding interesting is choosing how to spend my time and the people I surround myself with, and how that has a direct impact on my mental health. I had some big talks this year. I’ve got friends of 15 years and we haven’t had a deep conversation in five or six years. Time doesn’t stop like that very often and it won’t stop in the future, so it’s about taking that time out to do that,” she told Vogue.

4. This Was Her Comfort During the Early Days of the Pandemic

“White chocolate and raspberry muffins! [laughs] I was based in Los Angeles for the majority of lockdown. I was reading through my journal a couple of nights ago, and I was like, ‘Wow!’ I grew up. A lot of stuff went down in my personal life and I had to find hobbies. I’ve been working since I was nine years old. I feel like I was sort of deficient in other parts of my life. My relationships got stronger. I discovered that I love plants, painting and writing poetry. I went camping for a month in California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. I learned a lot about myself and overcame some demons,” she told Vogue.

5. Here’s Her Take on Jackie and Shauna’s Relationship

On Yellowjackets, Purnell’s character and ’s character has an intense relationship, sharing secrets but hiding others, supportive while also undermining. "I think Jackie and Shauna are in deep-friend love…. Maybe some of the dynamics between them are a little more complicated because there’s a lot of jealousy and possession and codependence. And that comes up a lot in female friendships."

Zoey 101 star Victoria Justice is sharing new music with her fans via her social media accounts. Justice, 30, posted a video of herself floating in a pool in a black and white swimsuit, while her song ‘Only A Stranger’ played. “#SentimentalGirlSummer is in full swing! I wrote this song for all my hopeful romantics out there. I hope you soak in all the summer vibes and keep streaming #OnlyAStranger this weekend 🌞💓,” she captioned the Instagram post. Here’s how Justice has the time, energy, and talent to succeed at so many different artistic endeavors.

1. Her Beauty Hacks

Justice has a few tricks up her sleeve when it comes to beauty know-how. "When I don't look my best, I detox with raw foods and lots of water,” she says. “It makes me feel better. I wash off my makeup every night before bed. It's my number-one rule for good skin… I haven't found anything better than sleep and a good concealer. I swear by Clé de Peau Beauté. My mom didn't drink, smoke or tan while growing up, and she looks great. I'm following her plan."

2. Animal Prints

Justice has a very specific sense of style. "I really love animal prints when it comes to fashion, and I thought it would be really cool to infuse them into the collection, so I did some bold and subtle designs with them in mind,” she says of her unique party invite collaboration with Tiny Prints. "Even though I didn't have a formal graduation, (I was tutored on set) I just thought, ‘it's a huge accomplishment and it should be announced in style’."

3. Singing Career

Justice is planning on releasing more music in 2023. “I am really looking forward to releasing a lot more music this year,” she says. “I’m looking forward to getting back in the studio. I have a couple of film projects that are in the works and lined up, but I can’t talk about them yet. But yeah, there are two other projects that I’m really excited about. I love what I do. I’m excited to keep singing, to keep writing music, and to keep challenging myself and playing characters that push me and are exciting, fun stories to tell.”

4. Independent Cinema

Justice loved being part of psychological thriller The Tutor. “I love the stories that are being told in independent films,” she says. “It feels like nowadays that a lot of them are more character-based, human stories. Those are the movies that I love to watch. It’s not every day that you get to come across a script like this and you get to work with people as talented as this whole cast and crew. It was such a pleasure to work on this one.”

5. Love of Billy Joel

Justice pays homage to Billy Joel with the art for her song ‘Only A Stranger’, which the legendary musician acknowledged. “My mom introduced me to Billy Joel at a young age, and we’ve always bonded over our love for him and his music,” she says. “When I wrote ‘Only A Stranger,’ I felt like it was only right to honor one of my favorite albums ever. It just seemed to really work creatively for the song. The fact that [Joel] posted about it, acknowledged it, and knows that I exist is the craziest thing ever.”

For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

She Builds Confidence

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

She Wants to be a Role Model

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27.

Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said.

Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Mariana Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Pilates

Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. Why is Pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic, the workout has many benefits, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility, resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, stress and back pain relief, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Emsculpt NEO

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.
