Pregnant Anika Moa shares her expert tips for surviving the heatwave ...

If you're struggling to keep cool in the heatwave currently blanketing New Zealand, Anika Moa might just have some tips to keep you covered.

The Kiwi star is not only struggling with the heat, she's doing it while 34 weeks pregnant.

Taking to her Instagram story this week, Anika showcased all the ways she's coping - including simply sitting directly in front of a fan wearing as little as possible.

As well as snacking on some fresh cherries, Anika then got into a blow-up pool to cool off and is captured on video singing: "Mama's in paradise!"
