Alexandra - The Blue Eyed Girl

With a slew of major film roles in her pocket, Alexandra Daddario is quickly becoming Hollywood’s most valuable player. She made her mark with her notorious role as the seductive woman scorned in True Detective, stole our hearts as Annabeth, the daughter of Athena in both instalments of the Percy Jackson franchise, and played remarkable roles in Baywatch, Texas Chainsaw 3D and the disaster epic San Andreas with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. So far this year Alexandra has been the object of Adam Devine’s affection in Netflix’s romantic comedy When We Met, and will star in two upcoming thrillers, Nomis starring Henry Cavill and We Have Always Lived in the Castle, directed by Stacie Passon. Alexandra, who now lives in Los Angeles, takes a day off her hectic schedule to talk to Azza Arif about women’s rights, gun control and her dreams of becoming a Pop star

The Rose That Grew From The Concrete

It takes a lot of courage and determination to overcome terrible dark clouds like a lifelong struggle with mental health—but it is a completely different thing altogether to come out of that darkness and focus all of that energy into aiding those struggling with their inner demons.

From supporting campaigns and opening up to fans about her own depression and her close call with suicide to releasing a short film in 2014 about her own struggles called, Break Free, Ruby Rose is a beacon of light for countless of women. This month, Azza Arif gets up-close and personal with the inspiration icon.
