MCoBeauty founder Shelley Sullivan reveals the truth behind $1billion beauty brand deal - and how much she profited from the sale

Shelley Sullivan, the woman behind Australia's fastest-growing beauty label MCoBeauty, has spoken candidly about what it meant to sell her business earlier this year. The entrepreneur, whose budget-friendly beauty empire has become a cult favourite among Aussie celebrities, confirmed that while the business was valued at $1billion, the real takeaway for her and her team was far from what the public might assume. 'I wish,' she told Stellar Magazine on Sunday when asked whether she personally pocketed that amount. 'The business could be valued at $1 billion but that's not necessarily a reflection on what the people that are exiting get.' Shelley explained that MCoBeauty's lofty valuation was based on its performance and earning potential rather than a direct windfall for herself. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She emphasised that factors like the brand's rapid growth, earnings trajectory and overall market trends contributed to the billion-dollar figure, not a simple sale price. Despite stepping back from day-to-day operations, the beauty boss hasn't completely walked away. She remains an avid supporter, watching from the sidelines with pride as the brand continues to thrive under new leadership. 'I'm still very much a fan of the brand,' she said. 'Running a business that grew so quickly was a lot… exhilarating and exciting, but at times exhausting.' Shelley admitted that she's now enjoying a well-earned break after years of hustle. The journey to the top wasn't without sacrifices - long hours, relentless pressure and the weight of expectations were all part of the grind. Driven by a clear goal to dominate the beauty market with affordable on-trend products, Shelley and her team worked tirelessly to turn MCoBeauty into the powerhouse it is today. The business' explosive growth made it a major player on supermarket shelves and in the competitive beauty landscape, rivalling premium brands at a fraction of the cost. She credits the brand's success to a razor-sharp focus on innovation and consumer demand, paired with savvy partnerships and bold marketing. But even with the monumental valuation and market domination, Shelley remains grounded and spends time focusing on family and slowing down than big-dollar headlines. Reflecting on her business journey, she concluded: 'We had a vision to create Australia's fastest-growing beauty brand. 'But I don't think myself, the family and the team ever thought beyond our wildest dreams that that's what we would create.'

Inside Lizzo's weight loss journey as she makes Ozempic admission

The singer explained she prefers to call her weight loss journey a process of 'weight release', admitting she tried GLP-1 after shutting down GLP-1 rumours Years of speculating about Lizzo's body have culminated in the star admitting she 'tried everything' to achieve the dramatic weight loss that has dumfounded her fans. The 37-year-old singer told Trisha Paytas' Just Trish podcast that she began to take GLP-1 medication at the outset of her weight loss journey in 2023, after shutting down rumours of her taking the medication. But despite taking it she soon came to the conclusion that it was not a long-term solution. ‌ She said: 'I tried everything. Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full. But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing.' ‌ The Grammy winner explained a long and complicated journey with food - frustrated by a period of veganism that meant she was consuming a lot of 'fake' food. She also clapped back at anyone saying taking GLP-1 medication was 'cheating' saying this was a 'fat phobic' take. 'It's not easy. It's a drug to help somebody with something they're struggling with.I think their way of being fat phobic when you're telling someone they're cheating.' Instead, to achieve her goal, she changed her habits around diet. Lizzo had been following a plant-based diet for many years and she was vegan for three years from 2020 through to 2023. 'What did it for me is, it was not being vegan,' she told Trisha. 'Because when I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats. I was eating a lot of bread, I was eating a lot of rice and I had to eat a lot of it to stay full.' Instead of a healthy diet, Lizzo found that she ended up filling up on thing with little nutritional value whilst 'consuming 3,000-5,000 calories a day.' ‌ She noted that some products branded as healthy can be packed with 'fake sugar' that can leave you still feeling hungry. Lizzo continued: 'So for me, when I started actually eating whole foods and eating like beef, and chicken, and fish. Like, I was actually full and not expanding my stomach by putting a lot of fake things in there that wasn't actually filling me up.' It was revealed in January that Lizzo lost 16 per cent of her body fat and reduced her body mass by 10.5. Despite criticism from nay-sayers who said described her weight loss journey as shunning body-positivity - she says she feels great. ‌ Lizzo explained, 'I feel like I worked really really hard and it was intentional with what I did with my body. So when I get compliments, I go, 'Thanks b***h.' Like I really receive it because I need to receive that. I don't take it any weird way because I tried to do this.' Last year, the singer had shut down allegations that she was taking GLP-1 medications. She shared a short Instagram wearing a colorful, satin robe while her hair was pulled back captioned, 'When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit.' Lizzo then shared a screenshot of a comment from a social media user where they accused her of taking 'Ozempic' or 'coke.'' The troll commented 'did she use Ozempic or did she snort coke.' In response, the Grammy winner wrote, 'whyyyy do u follow me?' followed by four crying face emojis. Lizzo then shared a screenshot of the Instagram user's account which had been set to private. ‌ In January, she announced she had completed her weight loss journey saying 'I did it. Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal! I haven't seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder: you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!' Then in April during an episode of the On Purpose With Jay Shetty podcast, Lizzo said she prefers to use the term 'weight release' in place of weight loss. She credited her boyfriend Myke Wright saying, 'My man, he's so funny. He was the one that brought it to my attention at first. Because at first I was like, 'Oh my gosh I lost five pounds' and he was like, 'Where did it go?' ‌ 'I was mad at him, I was like, "Why would he say that?" but he was like, "Where did it go?'I want to be very intentional about the words that come out of my mouth because there's young people who are watching me and they're experiencing what I'm putting into the world. They're applying it to their own experience and their own life just like I did when I was a kid.' She added: 'Be careful with your words because it can affect somebody in ways you don't even me releasing the weight has affected people and I take that seriously. I take that responsibility. And because of that I want to transmute it into something that makes people feel comfortable and less afraid of it.' During an appearance on The Jason Lee Show, Lizzo explained why she hasn't revealed her exact weight loss number. 'If I say the number, I don't think people could do the math. I've just seen a lot of TikToks where it's like, 'Lizzo talks about her 500lbs weight loss!' Why are y'all putting numbers on me? It kind of annoys me.'

Prince William's environmental mission needed 'more than ever' says Robert Irwin

Robert Irwin, the son of iconic environmentalist Steve Irwin, said Prince William's eco mission to help save the planet is needed 'more than ever' as he wishes the future King a happy birthday Prince William's global mission to help save the planet is needed "more than ever before", according to his friend and fellow conservationist Robert Irwin. Following in the footsteps of his late father Steve Irwin, one of the world 's most influential environmentalists in history, Robert has told how the Prince of Wales is 'leading the way' to 'inspire' the next generation of eco-warriors. The 21-year-old Australian, told how William's environmental Earthshot Prize awards - aiming over the next decade to discover and scale innovative planet saving solutions - has brought 'hope' and a sense of 'urgent optimism' to communities around the world threatened by climate change. ‌ ‌ The two men will this week once again join forces at London Climate Action Week, bringing together some of the world's most prominent climate leaders and environmental innovators, as well as Indigenous Peoples and community leaders whose very existence is in perilous danger. In an exclusive interview with The Mirror, Robert said: "I love being around passionate people, it inspires me. The prince is just that - passionate, curious and thoughtful. I've been fortunate enough to share many great discussions about the things we love about the natural world. And it's clear that he has a profound love for wildlife and wild places." Robert, known around the world for continuing his father's legacy running Australia Zoo and highlighting global conservation efforts with his frequent TV appearances, last year became an ambassador for William's project, helping to spread his message of hope. The Earthshot Prize searches the globe for game-changing innovations to help repair our planet, naming 15 finalists and awarding £1 million to the best five solutions each year to scale and grow. In addition to recognising five winners, the programme also works throughout the year to build public awareness, bring in investment and provide mentorship to all winners and finalists around the world. The two men in November joined park rangers in Cape Town along a sun drenched scenic walk in the shadow of the iconic Table Mountain, to admire the beauty and biodiversity of South Africa. ‌ Robert said: 'The Earthshot Prize really stands out as a global mission that leads with a sense of hope. And let's be real, we need hope more than ever before. We also need solutions to the big issues that face our precious planet and the project exemplifies a sense of urgent optimism. 'I have the privilege of carrying on a conservation legacy that my dad and my family created, and that is something very important to me. It makes me feel incredibly excited and hopeful when I get to join forces with like minded causes dedicated to making the world a better place. To be part of an initiative that shares the values of our own charity efforts through Wildlife Warriors is a great honour." ‌ Paying tribute to the prince, who turned 43 today, Robert said dad-of-three William's use of his profile aims to 'make the world a better place' . He added: 'He knows that he can put a spotlight on people making a real difference. He takes this responsibility very seriously, and he has a great ability to direct attention to where it needs to be. He is very compassionate and works hard to make sure that his conservation efforts benefit people as much as the environment. 'I am always impressed by his knowledge and dedication and in the conversations I have had with him, I often learn something new. Most importantly though, he truly cares about a healthy planet for our future generations." ‌ Speaking about their time in Cape Town for the fourth installment of the awards, Robert said: 'Firstly, getting to spend the week in one of my favourite cities on earth was fantastic. 'For me, speaking with the finalists and learning about what makes them passionate was a real highlight. 'Their connection to their causes are all deeply personal and very inspiring. It was also incredible meeting so many young conservationists and activists, and of course it was wonderful to spend time with the prince. I learn something new about his tireless efforts in conservation each time I have the chance to speak with him." ‌ Earthshot - inspired both former US president John F Kennedy's ambitious 'Moonshot' goal of landing a man on the moon by the end of the 1960s - will mark its fifth anniversary later this year in Brazil, with the promise of a stunning week of events in Rio de Janerio. But despite the glamorous location, Robert said the sole objective of the prince's mission and indeed the prize itself, was to highlight those places on earth that require our urgent focus. He said: "We are midway through the Earthshot decade of action and coming to the halfway point, it's clear we need to double down on our mission and focus on fresh action. ‌ 'I feel that my generation is primed and ready to create huge change, and we need voices in the environmental space for us to look up to. The Prince is certainly leading the way, and in a time of such rapid change we all must come together to protect what is most important." Royal sources suggest William has plans to take Earthshot to the four corners of the globe, already celebrating the awards in London, Boston in the United States, Singapore, Southeast Asia and Cape Town, South Africa. With the growth of the prize and its global focus, Robert said it was a collective responsibility to get on board. He said: "The future is in our hands. Our generation has the power to protect the beautiful natural world, but we must act with unity and haste. We can't work hard enough to spread this message, and everyone can play their part." Sources say William is considering taking his Earthshot Prize to China despite the country being the biggest CO2 polluter in the world, believing you 'can't exclude a big chunk of the planet when thinking about fighting for its future'. Robert even suggested he would use his friendship with William to lobby for the awards in his home country, adding: 'All four corners of the globe need Earthshot! But of course I'd love to welcome Earthshot to Australia one day." Ahead of catching up with his pal, he wished him happy birthday adding: 'He works tirelessly for the causes he loves so I also hope he takes some time out in nature on this special day."
