Britain's leading weekly celebrity gossip magazine Hello! has launched a competition exclusively for its Maltese readers which may win them €25,000.

All readers need to do is fill in the application form available in Hello! issues 9-12. Issue 9 is available at leading newsagents now. Applicants may fill in as many forms as they wish so long as the forms submitted are original. In the form, applicants are asked to choose, in order of preference, their six favourite fashion accessories out of the provided choice of 12. They are also asked to answer one simple question.

All applications will enter a final draw. The winner/s will be those whose preferred accessories are in the same order as the magazine's. In case of more than one winner, the prize will be shared.

"The Maltese market may be smaller than larger countries' but it is nonetheless a recognised one by important magazines like Hello!," Emma Miller, sales development - newspapers and magazines at Miller Distributors, said.
