THE sexy nurse trope is hardly original but this stunning porn star's take on the theme is the thing of punk rock legend.
Blink 182's 1999 hit album Enema of the State was one of the decade's most recognisable pieces of cover art.

Blink 182's Enema of the State album cover has legendary status

The American punk group, renowned for their fart gags, pop parodies and power chords, drafted in Janine Lindemulder, 55, to take centre stage on their second LP.
The adult actress - whose work the band were not aware of at the time of her casting - wore a white hat adorned with a red cross, a white shirt left open to tease her red bra, and knowingly pulled her hand into a blue latex glove as her heavily made-up face smiled at the camera.
On the back cover, band members Tom DeLonge, Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus stood nervously in front of her wearing nothing but boxer shorts.
Between the imagery and the album title, subtlety went out of the window.

Originally, the album was due to be called Turn Around and Cough, which photographer David Goldman said inspired the now legendary images.
Unsurprisingly, there was controversy around picture. The Red Cross demanded the band remove the emblem from Janine's hat as it broke the Geneva Convention. It was subsequently changed to the letter B.
The album was a huge success, selling over 15 million copies worldwide and catapulting the band to the big leagues.
Singles What's My Age Again?, All The Small Things and Adam's Song received heavy radio play and are synonymous with the era to this day.
After the album's release, mum-of-two Janine's life took a very different turn, temporarily at least.
She quit the porn industry the same year to become a primary school teacher.

Despite distancing herself from blue movies, she was inducted into the industry's hall of fame in 2022.
And two years after that, the lure of a big money industry return proved too and she mounted a comeback, performing with men for the first time in her porn career.
Janine's comeback coincided with her divorce from West Coast Choppers star Jesse James, who would later marry A-list actress Sandra Bullock.
That short-lived marriage wasn't her first celebrity romance. She famously featured in a homemade sex tape with Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil in 1998.
James and Janine found themselves locked in a bitter custody battle in 2009 after she was released from prison having served six months for a $300k tax evasion.
Despite knowing she owed the huge sum, she splashed out more than $600k on a new home and two cars instead of paying back the debt.
James was granted custody of their daughter Sunny, then five, while Janine was locked up.
Following her release, she unsuccessfully challenged the arrangement, which saw her receive weekly visitation rights.
At the time, James and Bullock argued Janine wasn't always in the right condition to look after Sunny, and they found themselves on 'high alert'.
Janine argued that her drug use was a thing of the past and told ABC News: "Sandy doesn't know what goes on in my house. I'd love for her to. Please come over, you know, I'll make dinner, you know, let's sit down, [as] two women."
James divorced Bullock in 2010 and has since married twice more. The dad-of-four most recently tied the knot to porn actress and fifth wife Bonnie Rotten in 2022.
While Janine divorced her third husband, Jeremy Aikman, in 2010 after just one year together.
She became an early adopter of OnlyFans, putting out her own content in 2017. She still releases sexy online content to this day, stripping down to her underwear for a monthly subscription of $9.99.

Glastonbury mystery performer ‘gives away' appearance with arrival in the UK

Glastonbury fever is reaching new heights after a rock icon was spotted in London just days before the legendary festival kicks off. Fans are convinced a surprise appearance is on the cards from the Foo Fighters frontman, Dave Grohl, 56. The iconic musican was seen backstage at the Yeah Yeah Yeahs gig at the Royal Albert Hall, where he posed for a photo with American singer Amanda Palmer. The image quickly made the rounds on social media, with Palmer sharing the snap and gushing: 'Not who I expected to run into backstage… but look, it's Dave Grohl. We shared a sweet conversation mostly singing the cosmic praises of Melissa auf der Maur.' Reddit detectives were quick to connect the dots and speculation exploded about Grohl appearing at Worthy Farm as a mystery guest. In 2023, Grohl and the Foo Fighters stunned the crowd with a surprise set under the alias The Churn Ups, marking their first Glasto performance since headlining in 2017 — and their first major UK gig since the tragic passing of drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022. Now, fans believe Grohl might pop up again. One Redditer wrote: 'Dave Grohl is in London, likely will be at the festival. Has done bits with John Fogerty in the past and other acts. Surely will be popping up at places this year?' More Trending Another speculated a touching tribute might be in store: 'Drumming for Alanis Morissette possibly? Tribute for Taylor Hawkins?' Another wrote: '100% he will be milling about – I'd say a couple of guest appearances are a safe bet. Maybe Alanis for a song or Neil Young for an encore' It wouldn't be far-fetched as Alanis Morissette, set to perform on the Pyramid Stage at 6:15pm on the 27th, was closely linked to Hawkins as he played drums for her before joining the Foo Fighters in 1997. This year's lineup includes The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo, Charli XCX, Doechii, and more — but if Dave Grohl shows up, expect an iconic Glastonbury moment that fans will be talking about for years.

Love Island: Harry Cooksley And Ben Holbrough 'Before And After Hair Transplants' Is Trending

This year's series of Love Island has been dramatic, to say the least. The brutal dumpings, cruel uncouplings and secret hook-ups have made the 12th season one of the most talked about shows of the moment. And while most viewers are talking about the love drama on screen, Harry Cooksley - who was seen having a secret kiss with bombshell Yasmin Pettet - and Ben Holbrough - who's with Shakira Khan - are trending after footage of their dramatic hair transformations emerged. That's right, 'Love Island Harry hair transplant' and 'Love Island Ben hair transplant' are breakout search terms for the Islanders, according to Google Trends. Perhaps unsurprising, 'Love Island Harry before and after hair transplant' is also trending - people love to have a nose at those 'before and after' pictures! Before showing off his full mullet in the villa, semi-pro footballer Harry, 30, says he used to hide his receding hairline with caps. He flew to Turkey for a hair transplant, thought to have cost over £5,500. In a throwback video from 2018, which has gone viral, Harry – then aged 23 – shared his journey at the EstePera clinic in Istanbul. He's seen from start to finish, from having his hairline mapped up for the procedure, before his hair was shaved prior to the transplant and the final result. 'The process was pretty much pain free. The surgeons were brilliant and I am absolutely delighted with the outcome,' he said. Harry Cooksley undergoing his hair transplant ©YouTube/EstePera Viewers praised his openness. 'I think it's really important for men to be open about hair transplants as much as women are about extensions. Good on them for normalising it,' one watcher commented. Another remarked, 'It's refreshing to see Love Island stars being open about personal decisions like hair transplants. A great conversation starter!' with a third adding, 'It's interesting to see Love Island stars opening up about their hair journeys. Great to see more honesty around self-care!' Ben, 23, has also had a similar procedure, although he got his done at 360 Hair Clinic in Brighton. He went through his transplant in 2023, for which prices start from £2,500. 'Before he made his way into the Love Island villa, Ben came to us last year to start his hair restoration journey, and we're giving you a behind-the-scenes look from the very beginning,' said hair loss expert Sophie. She shared footage of Ben's hairline marked up by a surgeon and his hair shaved off, before the hair follicles from the back of his head extracted and implanted in front of his natural hairline. The taxi driver and model was visibly thrilled with the results. 'That's sick,' he said as he admired his new hair. In an update six months after his surgery, he revealed that his hair has been growing thicker, stronger and healthier, with 80 percent back. 'Ben's hair is looking better than ever,' Sophie explained.

Reality dating show fans amazed by 'the best episode of all time'

TV viewers were left with their jaws on the floor last night as Love Island lived up to its promise of delivering an incredibly juicy season. The ITV2 show returned for its 12th edition earlier this month, with Maya Jama still hosting and 19 new contestants battling it out for the main prize. So far, three contestants have been dumped – on day two, day four, and day eight respectively – but that wasn't the end of the drama for Love Island viewers this week. A new challenge called Look Who's Talking shared what all of this year's islanders had been secretly saying about each other behind their backs. Despite all the confessions, the big reveal, however, was the secret smooch – or three smooches – between eternal troublemakers Harry and Yasmin in the hideaway. Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. As they got down to business, Helena – who Harry is coupled up with – was in the main villa none the wiser, until the beans were spilled later that night at the fire pit. In scenes viewers immediately hailed as some of the best on the show so far, the islanders were each tasked with reading out a quote from one of their contestants before guessing the name behind it. The moment came after Remell picked up a card and read out the quote from a fellow islander: 'Do you think I should kiss her? Is that what you're saying? Kiss Yas, because I will.' Harry was immediately exposed as the person behind the quote, which he'd spoken aloud last night after the two had shared a kiss during another challenge – Hideaway. To make matters worse, when Harry tried to say that he and Yasmin had kissed on two occasions, Yasmin chimed in to reveal they'd actually locked lips three times. Helena's friend Megan, who has been in the villa since day one, immediately shouted at Harry, saying: 'You owe it to Helena to be f*****g honest, you p***k!' On X, @OnikaQueentoRap said, 'This is peak television. Whoever hired this cast needs a raise, I actually can't!,' sharing a clip of the incident in a post. @HayaNxstalgia quoted the post and agreed: 'This has to be one of the best Love Island seasons ever. Pure drama and entertainment every episode.' @TriniGoddess agreed and called the episode 'the best [Love Island] episode of all time actually,' while @Ban_Dullock said: 'I kind of love Harry and Dejon, obviously they're not the best people but make great TV.' More Trending More of Harry's flirtatious quotes were then unearthed through the rest of Look Who's Talking, which landed him in more trouble and caused more arguments between the contestants. On day eight, Malisha was cruelly dumped after new bombshell Harrison chose American contestant Toni over her after dating them both. Watch Love Island every night at 9PM on ITV2 and ITVX .
