Ed’s L etter Hello It GiRLs,

meet the Lucky me got to ly, Olivia Holt. nd e i fr d an ul f beauti to be in Oz ed t ci ex ry She was ve at to!. ch to n and was fu

It's time to bring out the birthday cake and bust out the big balloons because it's our birthday! Yep, It GiRL has officially turned two, so hip, hip hooray to us! The past two years have gone by so quickly, but we've had so much fun putting together every single issue for you. My favourite thing about working on It GiRL (other than meeting lots of cool celebs, of course), is reading all the mail we receive. IG readers write the best letters and emails, and your kind words always make us feel good and inspire us to bring you an even bigger and better issue every month. So from the whole gang here at It GiRL, we just want to say a huge THANK YOU to every single one of our readers – it's you guys that make IG such an awesome mag to work on. To celebrate our birthday, I asked the team what they love the most about working on It GiRL...

PHOEBE: "My fave thing is designing It GiRL's cover. I love creating fresh and fun looks every month."

CHERYL: "That's easy! I love being able to play with all the clothes and accessories for our fashion pages."

NEWSFLASH! IT GIRL is now on Instagram!

You can follow us @itgirl_mag

BIANCA: "I love that talking about One Direction and looking at pictures of the boys are just part of the job!"

DANIELLE: "The It GiRL team, of course! It's like coming into the office and working with your friends everyday."

SARITA: "Being able to write cool stories everyday."

We hope you have a fun month!

Beautiful

Bella

One of our favourite Disney stars has hung up her Mickey ears and is well on her way to taking over Hollywood!

SINGING SONGBIRD While most stars make the natural transition from acting to singing, Bella wanted to wait before she released any music of her own. “I really wanted to work on my voice,” explains Bella. “I’ve never sang before, and I didn’t want to put an album out that I wasn’t proud of. I waited so that I could take a lot of vocal classes, so that I could work on my voice every day.” The hard work paid off because Bella’s debut single, Call It Whatever is a cracker of a track, and it has a super-cute video to boot. “Call It Whatever is my youngest-sounding song,” she says. “It’s for my younger audience, but my album is geared a little bit older.”

Multi-Talented Bella Bella has also filmed two movies, as well as written her very first book! The starlet can be seen in Blended alongside Drew Barrymore and the upcoming flick Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.“I’ve always wanted to do film,” says Bella. Her upcoming book, Autumn Falls, is the first of a trilogy and Bella had a special reason for writing it. “I really wanted to teach kids that if I’m dyslexic, and can get a book deal, then they can do whatever they want with their dreams and achieve them no matter what.”

BELLA BELIEVES IN SISTERHOOD! Bella has made no secret about the fact that she is dyslexic, and she recently opened up about how she used to get bullied for it.

“I was bullied a lot in school when I was younger for not knowing how to read,” Bella revealed in an interview. “I’m dyslexic. I still struggle with it when I get scripts. There are a lot of bullies out there who want to tell girls how to look. That really bugs me,” she said.

“Girls should stick together and see all imperfections.

That’s what makes us beautiful.”

the Ball!

Bella chats about some of her red-carpet looks over the years.

MAY 16, 2010 Shrek Forever After premiere “I thought it would be fun to look like Fiona!

I just went for green.”

FEBRUARY 8, 2011 Justin Bieber: Never Say Never premiere “I went through a very pink stage! I had the shoes first and found the perfect and only dress that I could imagine them with. I felt like a modern princess.”

AR, ZENDAYA IN MAY THIS YE FRIEND BY R HE D TE OR SUPP E PREMIERE OF ATTENDING TH BLENDED. BELLA’S MOVIE,

BELLA + ZENDAYA =

Friends 4eva!

Since the end of Shake It Up, Bella and Zendaya have been working hard on their individual careers, and the two stars are completely supportive of each other.

“The truth is we are so different, there is no competition,” explains Bella. “And when people try to compare us or turn us against each other, we’d just talk about it, and then everything was cool. We love each other.”

So don’t believe the rumours about these two, their friendship is still as strong as ever!

FEBRUARY 9, 2011 I Am Number Four premiere “This pick was last minute. I didn’t have anything that I felt like wearing and wanted something quick and easy.”

JULY 29, 2012 Oceana Benefit “I wanted to resemble the tranquil qualities of the oceans and since I have red hair, why not look like a mermaid?

Just kidding! I didn’t intend to look like that, but I got a ton of comparisons.”

AUGUST 12, 2013 The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones premiere “I decided to go 90 minutes before the premiere! I wanted something a little dark, but not too dressy since it was not my premiere.

I connected with Lily Collins at the TCA and decided to go to the premiere in support of her.”

Stay Healthy!

Host a winter pamper party with all your friends.

Paint each other’s nails, give each other face masks and braid each other’s hair.

Winter is the time of year when nasty bugs, like the common cold, hit us the most. Stay healthy by eating healthy, and getting plenty of vitamin C through fruits such as oranges, kiwi fruit and mandarins.

Start baking!

Cupcakes, choc- chip cookies, or anything yum!

Go on a winter picnic. Pack a blanket and put some delicious hot chocolate in a Thermos to keep you warm.

Get crafty! Go through all your old mags, photos and ticket stubs and make a cool collage to put up in your bedroom.

How embarrassing!

Whoa! How Embarrassing! Check out this month’s OMG moments…

Busted Bouncers

After school my friend and I were jumping on the trampoline in the rain. Our clothes got so wet that we decided to jump in our undies. Later when we came inside to dry off, my brother told me that my mum’s boss came over and they saw us jumping in our underwear! I can’t believe no one told us that we had a guest over, my friend and I were so embarrassed!

CARILINA, 10, VIC

Skirt Situation I was at school and I needed to go to the toilet. When I had finished, I went back to the canteen but I didn’t know that my skirt was stuck in my undies. When I joined my friends in the line, they told me about my skirt. It was the worst moment ever and they still laugh about it to this day!

GABBY, 11, NSW 18 FACEBOOK.COM/ITGIRLMAG 06

When my family and I were on holiday, we went to a shopping centre and were riding the escalator to the next level. When we got to the end, I went to step off but my skirt got stuck and my sister and mum were trying to set it free! So many people were passing and staring while we were all trying to pull my dress out.

Finally someone just stopped the escalator and I was able to get my skirt out. It was so embarrassing.

Stuck Sister

!

Driving Disaster My mum and I had been to the library and we both had our hands full with DVDs and books. In our rush, I sat my DVDs and books on the roof of the car.

Then we jumped in and drove off. Later as we were driving we heard a noise... and I suddenly realised what had happened! Mum had to stop the car so she and I could pick up everything off the road while a group of boys looked on and laughed. Blush x 100!

TAYLOR, 12, NZ

Pole Problem

s…

Celeb Whoa! Moment “I went on a blind date to the movies, and in the middle of the movie, I got up to use the bathroom. We were sitting up high in the back, and I slipped and basically fell down two whole flights of stairs in front of the whole audience!

Everyone turned to look at me, but the movie was playing, so I couldn’t make a joke. Walking back to my seat was the most embarrassing thing ever!”

SHAY MITCHELL FROM PRETTY LITTLE LIARS

It was parent and teacher night at school and my bestie and I were bored so we decided to go for a walk around the oval.

As we were heading out, I turned my head to talk to my bestie and when I turned back I ran into a pole! My bestie started laughing and said it looked like I had big wart on my forehead. I just started laughing too, but on the inside I was really embarrassed.

Cardboard Copy I was shopping with my mum and I spotted Samantha Jade. I ran over really quickly to ask for an autograph, but the closer I got I realised it was just a cardboard cut-out. My mum couldn’t stop laughing at me. I felt so silly!

OLIVIA’S FIRST ADULT MOMENT

Disney star, Olivia Holt, remembers when her parents gave her a keycard for the first time. “My parents gave me a card so when I went out with my friends to go shopping or to eat, I would have to use the card,” remembers Olivia.

“The first time was kind of a scary moment. I was really nervous. You feel very mature and older. But, now that I’ve gotten the hang of it, I’m used to it.”

TAYTAY IS CAT CRAZY!

HARRY’S SIBLING LOVE

It’s no secret that Harry Styles is close to his sister Gemma. Even with his busy schedule, Harry always makes time for his sibling. And, as if we didn’t love him enough already, Harry recently gushed about how close he is to his big sis’. “My sister and I got along very well,” Harry said. “I know that a lot of siblings argue, and we had our moments growing up, but we hang out together a lot now.”

Everyone knows that Taylor Swift is a huge cat fan, but it seems she’s even crazier about cats than we all thought, especially with her cat Meredith. When she’s on stage performing, Taylor gets distracted by the signs her fans make her and hold up. “Sometimes I get really caught up in reading the signs,” Taylor dishes. “There will be people who just make a giant, huge picture of my cat’s face. So big, that it’s all I can see!” Tay goes on to say that she thinks her kitty Meredith is the cutest cat ever. “She’s the most adorable cat in the world,” gushes Taylor.

DOVE WAS STARSTRUCK!

ARIANA’S FAMILY COMES FIRST

No matter how big of a star Ariana Grande becomes, her family will always be number one in her life. Ari’s family mean everything to her and they’re always by her side to support her.

“My family was the loud, friendly, food-shoveling, loving Italian family,” says Ari. She calls her older brother, Frankie, her bestie and says she looks up to her mum, Joan. “She’s the most independent woman you will ever meet.” Ari is also close to her grandparents whom she constantly posts photos of on her Instagram account. We always knew Ariana was a total sweetheart!

ED MISSES HIS FRIENDS

Being a singer on tour means being away from your loved ones for a long period of time, and Ed Sheeran misses spending time with his pals.

“I mostly miss all my friends,” Ed said.

“They have finished university now so they’re back at home and hanging out with each other all the time and I’m not there.” Aw, we reckon that Ed’s friends would love to be touring the world like he is!

Dove Cameron, who is the star of the Disney Channel movie, Cloud 9, is a huge fan of singer Gwen Stefani. So, when Dove saw her in concert for the first time, she started crying! “I was in love with her,” remembers the starlet.

“I was eight-years-old and I went with my mum and my best friend. I stood in the back screaming and crying,” Dove explains. “I was like, ‘She’s breathing the same air as me!’ So sweet!

FRIENDLY COSTARS! Since meeting on the set of Teen Beach Movie, Maia Mitchell and Ross Lynch have become great friends. Maia loves being one of the boys and hanging out with her Disney costar. “We love getting dinner and jamming to music,” says Maia. “He even helped me with my American accent!”

SELENA SEES THE FUNNY SIDE OF LIFE

Even stars like Selena Gomez can’t escape embarrassing moments.

The star recalls a time when she fell down while performing on stage.

“We’re human. So of course I mess up,” Selena laughed. “It’s just funny to laugh at afterwards.” We love that Sel doesn’t let OMG moments get her down!

Read on to find out what we chatted about…

Are you enjoying being on I Didn’t Do It? “I LOVE being on I Didn’t Do It! We’ve become one big, happy family which is great, because being on set for such long periods of time every day, you want to be around people who send off good vibes and have a good attitude, so everyone is just so great to work with. We have a really good relationship.”

“There’s no typical day on set – it’s crazy! We have a lot of fun. During our lunch breaks we play games and there’s this game called Catch Phrase that we like to play and it’s so much fun! It also gets really competitive and intense, but it’s a lot of fun!

a very quick thinker.”

SARAH: “Hilarious. She always makes me laugh.”

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given?

“It would be to always have fun and enjoy what I’m doing – whatever it is I may be doing.”

Oliviain Oz! “Australia is so beautiful. I can’t wait to come back!” OLIVIA HOLT.

When was the last time you were star struck?

“I was at Disneyland and I saw Rapunzel and I cried!

That’s the truth, it happened, I cried. She was very nice to me and when I went back to Disneyland after that she remembered me! She was like, ‘Have we met before?’ and I said, ‘YES! Yes we did!’

It was so awesome.”

How do you fit school into your busy schedule?

“School is very challenging, especially with trying to manage time. It’s very hard for me because I really care about my education, but I also love what I do, so being able to figure out how to do both can be really hard but I do manage to get it all done. I have enough time in the day and I have a wonderful teacher who’s very loyal and really cares and helps me tremendously.”

Aside from acting, what else do you love?

“I love to dance. I’ve been attending some dance classes lately and I’m loving it. Every time I hear music all I want to do is dance.

Singing is also a passion of mine, I’ve been singing for a really long time. For fun I love rollercoasters, I’m a huge theme park freak and I love playing board games or just any random games. I love to relax too, like being at home all day long in my jammies.”

Tell us about your music...

“I’m crossing my fingers that my album happens soon, it probably should be happening at the end of this year. Music has been a part of my life for a really long time so being able to record in the studio and work with different writers has been a dream.”

Growing up, what were you always getting into trouble for?

“Well, for one I was always blaming things on my younger brother! But I was always getting in trouble for playing my music too loud.

I’ll always have it turned up high and I would be singing at the top of my lungs and we’d have guests over and I’m upstairs jamming in my room really loudly.”

Olivia and Spencer Boldman take a happy snap in front of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

On their very first day in Sydney, Olivia and Spencer headed straight to Bondi Beach!

Is there anything you would like to say to your fans?

“Yes! I want to say thank you so much for all your love and support. You’re the reason I do what I do and that I can do what I love, so thank you guys!”

Here’s some hints on how to the boys! (You can tha get closer to nk us later.)  Want to track 1D while they’re in town?

The best way to do this is their Twitter and Instag by checking ram accounts.  The lads love Austra lia and love to explore everything it has to offer. So keep an eye out as you pa ss any landmarks or even beaches. The y’ll be here during summer, so be on the lookout as you might see Liam or Lou is hitting the waves.  Stand out at their concerts and get noticed! Make a co ol sign, wear a bright top or even dress up in a costume! Might sound a little crazy, bu t a girl who wore a Spiderman costume to their Take Me Home Tour in Syd ney last year was immediately spotted by the boys!  The band always get to the concert venue early for sound check so catch them as they make a dash into the venue or leave at the end of the night.

Glitter snowflake invitations are easy to make – all you need is pale blue cardboard, silver glitter, glue and a pen. Cut out snowflake shapes and write the party details on one side, then cover the other side in glue. Put the glue-side down into a plate of glitter, then take out and shake off the excess glitter. Give each invite a hit of hairspray to keep the glitter in place.

The winter theme can continue to the party food. Go for simple foods that leave your guests with a warm and fuzzy feeling!  HOT CHOCOLATE BAR: Set up your own hot chocolate bar with cinnamon, honey, peppermint sticks and marshmallows and experiment with flavours.  FONDUE: Pots of melted cheese

STREET GLAMOUR ON FASHION BEING A CREATIVE OUTLET...

“Fashion for me is another way to express myself creatively. It is one of the things I get to do - to play dress-ups and create outfits and looks that aren’t typical.

I am an artist, so I like creating things. Shoes are my favourite thing.”

ON HER STYLE...

“I love breaking the rules. I think that’s what makes your style unique. I mix and match, not only colours but types of clothing - like a leather jacket with a dress.”

“My love for fashion started with my mum.

I used to watch her get dressed. She was around my age right now, and she was so fly.”

we ALL ABOUT THE...

Parrot

❤ There are at least 315 different species of parrots. ❤ Smaller parrots can live for up to 15 years, while larger parrots, such as the macaw, can live more than 75 years! ❤ Parrots have thick muscular tongues, which help them eat fruit, seeds, buds, nectar and pollen. ❤ Pet parrots can mimic noises. The best is the African Gray parrot. ❤ If you decide to get a parrot as a pet, keep in mind that they are social birds and they like lots of attention.

3 TIPS TO LOOKING AFTER PETS DURING WINTER • Outdoor pets need a bit more food in winter to help them stay warm.

• Some cats like to sleep under parked cars in winter, so be sure to always check before your folks drive.

• Make sure your pet has a warm place to rest like a kennel or cosy bed.

FEATHERS, FUR AND EVERYTHING IN-BETWEEN!

I'D LIKE TO GET A BUNNY. HOW DO I CARE FOR ONE AND IS THERE A PARTICULAR KIND OF BUNNY I SHOULD GET? ALSO, CAN I TEACH A BUNNY ITS NAME? ❤ It is possible to teach a bunny to respond to its name but it's not an easy job. Most rabbits are likely to respond to the sound of their food being shaken, so make sure you say your bunny's name each time you shake their food container. In time, your rabbit should associate their name with food and respond to you.

All domestic rabbits will make a great pet. For caring tips, check out the site, rspca.org.au and look up rabbit under adopting small animals. Have fun!

It's been a year since The Collective released a song and the band admits the past year has been rough for them. "We went through a few trials and tribulations," explains Jayden.

QUICK CHAT WITH

Alison Brie

She's the voice of Unikitty in The LEGO Movie...

On her character, Unikitty...

“Unikitty is an amazing character!

First of all she is half kitten, half unicorn, which means that she looks like a kitten but she has a horn, and she's a little bigger than some of the characters because she is half unicorn so it makes sense. She is the princess of Cloud Coocooland and she's supersweet but she has a dark side, so do not get her angry!"

How fun was it for you to bring Unikitty to life?

”It was so fun! Animation is unlike any other type of acting work because you really get to explore a whole different side, it's not about what you look like, you're just using your voice, it was totally fun."

What do you think the film's message is?

“I think the message is just to be yourself and if you're different from everyone else, then that's a good thing. Everybody should embrace their unique qualities and celebrate them."

MAGIC 2015 – DUELS OF THE PLANESWALKERS (IOS, ANDROID) If you’re into card collecting games, you’ll already know Magic the Gathering. A huge sensation in the real-world, the digital version does an excellent job of capturing the fun of opening a new pack of cards, and building just the right deck to take into battle. For the first time in the series’ history, you can now fully customise your deck from every card in your collection.

BIOSIS (IOS)

Insomniac Games is best known for its epic console games like Spyro the Dragon, and Ratchet and Clank, but the studio has taken time out to make a game for iOS and it’s awfully cute. Outernauts: Monster Battle has you breeding monsters, nurturing them while they grow up and then sending them into battle. It’s a lot like Pokémon, as you build teams from the monsters you breed so you can use the right strategy in battle. It’s not too hard and it’s free to play, too.

Few games are as heart-wrenching as this one. You play a little jelly like alien and the love of your life has been ripped apart. So you platform through the world picking up the strands of your loved one so they can be resurrected. Helping make this journey so memorable are the pretty visuals and how you solve the level puzzles. These require you to work with other creatures in this strange world and to use their skills to your advantage.

Every month a treasure chest of video games turn up on our doorstop and we test the very best: check out this month's most awesome adventures.

MOUSECRAFT PC, PS4, PS3, VITA

The Art Academy series on 3DS is truly awesome. It uses the benefits of the touchscreen to teach you drawing, painting and sketching skills by taking you through a range of mini-games. This edition has a Pokémon spin, using creatures and objects from the games as the models to teach you all the techniques. There’s 40 lessons crossing many styles of art.

This inventive puzzle game is all about helping a mouse get to tasty cheese.

These furry little fellows never stop moving, so you have to make sure they don’t get caught in traps or obstacles. To do this, you need to place blocks in their path, which fall like Tetris blocks from the top of the screen. Organising these blocks correctly is how you keep things nice and cheesy.

WORMS BATTLEGROUNDS PS4, XBO

RATCHET AND CLANK TRILOGY VITA

This is easily one of the funniest multiplayer games ever. The idea is to take your team of four worms into a battleground and to survive longer than the other three teams out there. Sounds easy, but the crazy over-the-top weapons, randomly generated levels and spawn points join completely unguided gameplay to mean anything can, and does, happen.

The first three games in the long-running Ratchet and Clank series are legendary titles of the PS2 era. Each pushed the boundaries on what was thought possible for 3D adventures, with amazing stories, stunning graphics and inventive gameplay.

All three games have been given an HD makeover and bundled on the Vita so you can relive these great experiences.

We peer into the soul of some of gaming’s greatest heroes and unearth the treasures inside.

CHARACTER PROFILE: RAYMAN NAME: Rayman ESTIMATED AGE:15 APPEARANCE: Few heroes could get by without any arms or legs, but Rayman has been doing it for almost 20 years. Despite the missing limbs, he still has big white hands and large yellow sneakers for punching and jumping. A clown-like haircut and crazy nose also help him stand out.

PERSONALITY: Despite saving the glade of dreams multiple times, Rayman is a goofy hero that always

seems to have a lot of fun, even in dangerous times. He must be a nice guy, because he is always accumulating more and more friends.

WILL YOUR RENTS LIKE HIM? Rayman doesn’t have any parents, created by nymphs and placed in the glade of dreams to protect it from darkness. This might win your 'rents over, but his loopy attitude will probably scare them too much.

MINECRAFT TIP #3 (ALL FORMATS) This month we focus on the crafting aspects. Make sure you plan ahead and think about the order of how things must go. So you need to start off building a bench, then collecting resources to build tools, to get better resources, so you can build a furnace and so on. Always horde coal, as this is the most useful resource. Especially because starting fires allows you to cook food, which then heals you better. We also recommend using iron while mining to make sure you get more than just puffs of dirt.

THE E3 SPECIAL

Each June the entire games industry converges on Los Angeles to reveal and discuss the most exciting new experiences of the year. Here are the most exciting titles coming up!

LITTLEBIGPLANET 3 (PS4) We’ve been waiting years, now the ever-so-cute Sackboy is returning with richer and deeper worlds to explore filled with physics-based puzzles to solve. Three new friends join the fun, a fast god, strong giant and flying bird, for co-op craziness.

You can still create and share your own levels, too.

JUST DANCE NOW (IOS, ANDROID) This surprising spin-off to the main Just Dance series, which is also getting a new instalment, works on mobiles. You download an app, then log on to a website on your TV or computer, and then dance. Your phone becomes a motion-controller and unlimited people can play at once.

FABLE LEGENDS (XBO) If you love your epic RPGs, the new entry in the Fable series brings a wonderfully conceived magic world to life for you to explore. Now you will be able to explore the world with three friends in co-op, or take on the role of the villain setting traps and enemies in the path of other players.

ORI AND THE BLIND FOREST (XBO) This gorgeous looking sidescrolling platformer looks like it has real heart. It’s about the loving relationship between a little, white creature and its father figure after the latter falls ill. The little fellow then needs to tackle a massive darkness all on its own. Looks mesmerising!

These figures can be placed on a Wii U controller and brought into a game world in Nintendo games and titles like Skylanders. How awesome does that sound? We're really looking forward to it!

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA (WII U) We knew a new game in the Zelda series was coming, but we totally didn’t expect this. A fully open-world to explore on horseback as the heroic Link, filled with creatures, enemies and stunning locations. It is a first for the series, and it looks truly amazing on-screen – Nintendo has outdone itself. Huge round of applause to Nintendo for this one!

YOSHI’S WOOLLY WORLD (WII U) Easily one of the most gorgeous games we have ever seen, this sidescrolling platformer puts Yoshi into a world made out of yarn, where he can unravel or knit the environment. This can be used to fight enemies, find secret areas or change into different shapes.

This game is so inventive and so, so cute!

We can't wait to get our hands on it.

NO MAN’S SKY (PS4, PC) This could end up being the coolest game of all time. You get to fully explore a randomly generated, universe from your own personal space ship. Every player will discover new and unique things, from bizarre aliens to stunning worlds and crazy space battles. You can go anywhere with complete freedom.

This one can't come quick enough for us!
