FHM is a monthly publication that give guys what they want. Everything from the most beautiful woman in the world, cars, fitness, food, sport, fashion to tech, gadgets, travel and gaming. If you're a guy, we will have something of interest for you.
ED’S LETTER... The FHM office is normally a lively place. But as I write this, it’s anything but. The reason, as you’ll probably be aware, is that it’s been announced that FHM is to suspend publication. We know from the messages you’ve sent in you’re as gutted about this as us. Despite the bad news, this is not the final issue, which means we have the serious business of presenting the January 2016 FHM to you. And it’s a belter. Our cover girl is the most beautiful woman on TV: Made In Chelsea’s Binky. If you need cheering up – and we do – our exclusive shoot will certainly do that. See it on p56. Away from Binky, we turn our attention to all things Christmas, with our incredible gift…
WE PUT CROCODILES ON OUR HEAD Ever since he came back from Australia, Upgrade editor Tom has been trying out more and more exuberant hairstyles and fighting anything that comes into the office made from tough leather. We think it’s to do with this. WE CRIED AND CRIED Legendary art geezer Jamie left us the other day, and we’re pretty bummed out about it. This is Jamie wearing loads of hats. He LOVED hats. This is so Jamie. Wherever he is now (he won’t reply to our WhatsApp messages) we hope he’s surrounded by hats. Like in a JD Sports, or a lost-and-found bin. God speed, you beautiful bastard. WE BORROWED SOME CHEERLEADERS We were doing some warm-up stretches ahead of the Jaguars v Bills NFL game when some cheerleaders…
Drinking and driving I came back from a recent trip to Belgium with all of this – and there’s more that wouldn’t even fit in the photo. The car was filled with bottles that you could hear clinking all the way back to the UK. Liam, via email Great effort, Liam – but where are the paprika-flavour crisps? You’ll need to go back and get us some. Cheers. Water guy I’ve done a fair few watersports in my time, so was pleased to read ‘How I Did It’ about Parks Bonifay, a very successful wakeboarder. The man is awesome. I just wish the weather was better in this country to facilitate the sport. Lee, via email Have you never been to Rhyl in November, Lee? It’s absolutely scorching. A marriage…
Got something insightful to say about the mag? To celebrate the DVD and Blu-ray release of Better Call Saul – the story of Albuquerque’s notorious ‘criminal’ attorney Saul Goodman, set six years before TV series smash Breaking Bad – we’re giving away a 32-inch TV and a copy of the DVD so you can enjoy it in style. Write to us (with a picture if possible) via one of the ways on the opposite page for your chance to win. Good luck!…
WHO SHE? Age: 20 From: Chicago Likes: Music, pizza, Kanye West Dislikes: Dick pics, internet trolls Instagram: @niykeeheaton NICK POPE MAROUS HYDE If you’re the kind of person who spends way too much time on social media – which you are, obviously – then you’ll know that there are a few sure-fire ways to guarantee loads of likes and retweets from your online pals. Sepia-toned shots of bland salads, quirky engagements, selfies with Boris Johnson or cute snaps of overweight, roly-poly babies all do the trick (although, to be fair, the last two are pretty much the same thing). Unfathomably hot musicians with sexy selfie addictions go down well too. And who better to prove our point than US Instagram sensation Niykee Heaton? With 1.7 million followers, the 20-year-old, Chicago-born…
RICK EDWARDS, 36, TV PRESENTER I never thought of entertainment as a legitimate career choice. In all the time I spent watching stand-up gigs with my dad in dingy pubs, it just never made sense. I’d imagined myself as a vet, a stunt man, an architect – but never performing. That changed when I found myself auditioning for the Cambridge Footlights. It was in front of Richard Ayoade and John Oliver, too. I was always in trouble at school for trying to make people laugh – but in the end, I’d just been training for that moment. Post-graduation, I dicked around while my friends scooped up lucrative jobs. I’d just about manage to pay the rent with some stand-up gigs, and I’d often think, “Why don’t you stop this and…
