In your brain, it might feel like 2024 has only just started. But we're actually hurtling full steam ahead into 2025 - hence why Pirelli have just launched a first look at their calendar for next year.
In it, Bridgerton and Sex Education actress Simone Ashley poses nude with an artfully draped robe around her body. Of course she looks like an absolute mega babe, and both us and social media users alike have been left in total awe.
The theme for the calendar is 'refresh and reveal', and the shoot took place in Miami. Alongside the 29-year-old actress, a whole host of impressive talent posed for photographer Ethan James Green: Hunter Schafer, John Boyega, Padma Lakshmi, Jodie Turner Smith, Connie Fleming, Martine Gutierrez, Eloidi Di Patrizi, Jenny Shimizu, Jung Ho-yeon, Vincent Kal El and Ethan James Green himself.
The calendar comes as Simone confirmed she would appear in Bridgerton season four, which will focus on Benedict Bridgerton and Sophie Beckett's love story. "I know that I am returning but that’s all I can say," she said in an interview. "I absolutely adore the show, and the more I can be a part of it, the better. They’ve been really kind to work around my schedule."
Elsewhere, Simone is also starring as the lead in a new Prime Video rom-com called Picture This, a story in which her character Pia, who runs a failing photography studio, goes on a string of blind dates as part of a quest to find true love.
We can't wait.
