I hunted down Athlete A doctor who abused Olympic gymnasts and kids as young as SIX with twisted ‘massages’
REPORTER Tim Evans watched in horror as Dr Larry Nassar casually played a video of himself putting his hands between the legs of a helpless young gymnast. The team doctor for USA Gymnastics was trying explain away claims of abuse - instead, it was yet more evidence against a serial paedophile who used the pretence of ‘treatment’ to repeatedly fondle and penetrate teenage athletes with his fingers. The respected doctor used his high profile position to assault hundreds of underage girls , including Olympic gold medallists, over three decades. Much of the abuse took place at Michigan State University and the sprawling Texas ranch owned by celebrated Olympic coach Bela Karolyi, used as a gymnast training camp. Even when girls complained to USA Gymnastics, the sport’s governing body, their allegations were ignored and some were even forced to continue their ‘treatment’ with the sick medic. Rachael Denhollander, like hundreds of others, kept her secret for 16 years, tortured …

We try the new Nars Climax launches – and how to do the perfect smoky eye
‘The easiest way to add drama is by focusing on the eyes,’ said François Nars – and this is exactly what this new collection is about. Beauty experts forecasted that 2021 would be the year of eye makeup and a return to glam , given the use of masks combined with re-emerged social freedoms. One of the ultimate staples in the little black book of makeup is the smoky eye, though people still struggle with how to to it properly. You would be forgiven for thinking it’s all about black and dark brown eyeshadow laid heavy on the eye, but actually ‘smoky’ just refers to the technique, rather than the colour. Vincent Ford, global makeup artist at Nars, tells Metro.co.uk that any colour can be applied smoky – even a mid-toned bronze or bright orange, there are no limits. ‘Think of it almost in the way you see smoke – the source of it always more dense, then it feathers and become more airy’, adding that rather than look heavy, the idea is it ‘looks like a cloud’, the style …
