CARA DELEVINGNE will go from catwalk model to model citizen after becoming an eco-warrior.
I’ve learned the Brit, who used to make no secret of her extravagant lifestyle flying around the world in private jets, is preparing to open a school to help teach people about nature and sustainability.

Her project, called Earthed, is an online platform which she hopes will teach people everything they need to know about helping the planet’s future.
A source said: “Cara is hugely passionate about this project and she is thrilled about Earthed being launched.
“She helped to create a platform with her charity, Initiative Earth, of which she is a trustee.
“Earthed will feature lectures from renowned figures in the natural world and will bring together communities.
“Cara has ensured everything is covered, from growing vegetables to helping people understand what they can do to make a difference.”
The project will be funded partially by donations from users but will be free for anyone who cannot afford to pay.
Change her behaviour
Insiders working on Cara’s new project said they hoped the platform would be formally launched next month.
She first revealed how she had started her charity, Initiative Earth, in April 2021.
In an open letter at the time she admitted she was still learning about her own carbon footprint and said she was hoping to change her behaviour.
Cara said: “My actions have not always aligned with my values, but I am learning from my mistakes and I am dedicated to making informed decisions, as well as working with companies who are taking significant steps in reducing their impact.”
JESY MOVES WITH TIMES
IT has been 18 months since she released her debut solo single Boyz but Jesy Nelson is going for something completely different with the follow-up.
She looked like she had hopped in a time machine in this outfit, which she wears in the video to her new song Bad Thing, and her new sound is a stark contrast, too.

The song drops tomorrow morning and sounds more like a cross between Billie Eilish and Raye, rather than something Little Mix would have made.
In the haunting lyrics, about a complicated relationship with a toxic partner, she sings: “Hey, we started at the end, another second chance, to f*** it up again.
“I know I’m good alone, but you feel just like home. My favourite kind of wrong, familiar as a song.”
Continuing to the chorus, she muses: “When I’m about to say bye bye, I forget what I cried about last time.
“Only thing I’m seeing clearly is I’m love blind.
“I would trade common sense for a good time.
“Damn, I’ve done a bad thing, I know you’re damaged goods.
“Is it a bad thing that I wanna treat you good?”
It’s a fresh start for Jesy and I’m pleased to see she is trying something new and exciting.
Other tracks out tomorrow include Joel Corry’s dance track Do U Want Me Baby? And Busted’s updated version of 2002 song Loser Kid, called Loser Kid 2.0, featuring Simple Plan.
Rising stars Lauren Spencer-Smith and Gayle have also teamed up with newcomer Em Beihold for their track Fantasy, on which they badmouth an ex-boyfriend.
Remind me not to get on their bad side.
Celine movie debut
CELINE Dion is making her first return to music since being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease stiff person syndrome.
She has contributed five new songs to the soundtrack of upcoming film Love Again, which is her first movie acting role, opposite Priyanka Chopra.

Celine, who hasn’t released any music in four years and has had to cancel a string of shows due to her condition, has just released the title track Love Again and will put out the soundtrack on May 12 – the same day the film hits UK screens.
She said: “I had a lot of fun doing this movie.
“And to have the privilege of appearing with the beautiful and talented actors Priyanka Chopra and Sam Heughan in my very first feature film is a gift that I will cherish forever.

KIM Kardashian will attend next month’s Met Gala after all, despite rumours that her family had been snubbed.
ZOE’S ‘GAY SON’ WISH
ZOE Ball’s DJ son Woody Cook believes his mum manifested his bisexuality because she wanted to have a gay son.
Woody, who came out in 2019, said: “My mum always said she wanted me to be gay . . . so maybe she manifested it – halfway at least.”

The Radio 2 host, who also has a daughter called Nelly with Woody’s dad Fatboy Slim, was confused when Woody first opened up about his sexuality, partly because she was falling asleep at the time.
Recalling the moment on the Homo Sapiens podcast, he explained: “She’s just like, ‘What is it, Woody? I’ve just taken a sleeping pill . . . you’ve got to tell me quickly because I’m going to start falling over and slurring soon. I won’t make it to bed.
“So I told her and she was like, ‘It’s great’, but she was also confused, and said, ‘Isn’t that just the step before being gay or something?’
“She said, ‘But I don’t know anyone who’s bisexual’.
“Then she realised there were some people she knew who were bi, and it’s one of those things where it needs a bit more awareness.”
Matt’s ‘big bro’
MATTHEW McConaughey has claimed Woody Harrelson could actually be his brother after learning his mum potentially got intimate with Woody’s dad.
Matthew said: “In Greece a few years ago, we’re sitting around talking about how close we and our families are.

“And my mom is there, and she says [to him], ‘Woody, I knew your dad.’ . . . It was a loaded K-N-E-W.
“We went on to unpack what this ‘knew’ meant and did some math and found out that Woody’s dad was on furlough at the same time that my mom and dad were in their second divorce.”
But Matthew has not yet decided to get a DNA test.
He said: “He’s asking me to take a chance to go, ‘Wait a minute – you’re trying to tell me my dad may not be my dad after 53 years of believing that?’
“I got a little more skin in the game.”
HOTLY tipped singer Cian Ducrot has announced debut album Victory will be out on July 21.
The Irish star, who has already had two Top 20 singles, has been supporting Ed Sheeran on tour and is now ready to step out on his own.
The singer said the album is inspired by his mum’s struggle to get away from his abusive father.
TEE TIME FOR LEWIS
LEWIS Capaldi sure knows how to have a tee-rrific time when he’s off-duty from touring the world.
The Scottish joker posted these snaps of him topless on a green ahead of tomorrow’s release of his latest heartbreak single Wish You The Best.

On the track, he sings: “Oh my love, I want to say I miss the green in your eyes, and when I said we could be friends, guess I lied.
“I want to say I wish that you’d never left, but instead I only wish you the best.”
He is aiming to score his fifth No1 with the tune and is selling CDs in a bid to boost his sales.
This is the closest thing to his massive 2018 hit Someone You Loved, so I’m sure it’ll be another smash.
RITA Ora will perform a medley of her hits during an interval at next month’s first Eurovision semi-final – 14 years after dropping out of a race to represent the UK.
She auditioned to be our entry back in 2009, but then decided to leave the competition, with Jade Ewen being picked to represent us instead.
Now Rita will take to the stage on May 9 to sing her next single Praising You for the first time.
Other entertainment will come from Ukrainian band The Hardkiss, whose frontwoman Julia Sanina is one of the Eurovision hosts.
The shows are being staged in the UK on behalf of war-torn Ukraine.
