Fright night: Jersey Shore star JWoww flaunted her surgically enhanced curves in a costume sure to give people nightmares

People wear all sorts of scary costumes to celebrate the Halloween season.

And Jersey Shore star JWoww truly looked a fright after donning a skin-tight catsuit that pays tribute to one of her favourite spirits.

Ironically the star wore the Svedka Vodka robot girl outfit in a series of photos sure to drive even her fans to drink.

In the dog house: The reality TV star showed off the Halloween themed kennel her pets will be forced to sleep in for the next few weeks

The reality television star, whose real name is Jennifer Farley, flaunted her surgically enhanced curves at the bar as she sucked on a lollipop.

She also showed off her Halloween-themed dog house, where her pet pooches will no doubt be forced to sleep until October 31.

And she also displayed cueing form on a pool table that would surely have Scottish snooker legend Stephen Hendry shaking his head in dismay.

Bad form: No doubt Stephen Hendry and John Higgins would disapprove of JWoww's cueing technique

But JWoww was not the only celebrity showing their love of the popular holiday.
Gossip Girl star Blake Lively, 24, was carrying a huge pumpkin when she hailed a taxi in New York yesterday.

Leonardo DiCaprio's former girlfriend looked all business in a a felt hat, leather jacket and black jeans combo.

No doubt she will be carving the vegetable into a lantern for the popular holiday, though she could also use it to bake a pie for her rumoured new boyfriend Ryan Reynolds.

Punk princess: Cher Lloyd insists she is much happier shopping in New Look than in Selfridges

She's one of the most well-known faces from The X Factor, but Cher Lloyd isn't she's not been changed by fame.

The 18-year-old With Ur Love singer says she is much more comfortable shopping for clothes in New Look than Selfridges, although she admits her fans are sometimes surprised to see her browsing in a high-street store.

She told Attitude magazine: 'I haven’t changed, honestly. When I go home, I go into Morrisons and I do my mum’s shopping. And down the veg aisle they’ll be all in my face. Lovely, though.The funniest comment that I got is when I was in New Look and someone said to me, “What are you doing in here?”’

Honesty is the best policy: Cher made the admission as she posed in a quirky new shoot for Attitude magazine

'Like she’s supposed to be in Harrods or something. I can’t go there. I don’t fit in there. I feel out of place. I went into Selfridges and felt out of place. I so don’t belong in places like this…'

Cher made the admission as she embraced her colourful side with two-tone hair and patterned lips in the Attitude photoshoot.

And Cher said she had no idea how much her life would change after taking part on The X Factor.

Starting out: Cher made a huge name for herself after appearing on The X Factor

As well as getting a career out of her time on The X Factor, Cher also made a friend in music mogul Simon Cowell, who she says knew exactly how to whip her into shape when she was misbehaving.

She said: 'I like people who have authority, If I was being a moody cow one day, I’d want someone to say, "Don’t be like that! You’ve got a job to do! Do this and do this!" '

The full interview with Cher appears in this month's Attitude magazine, out now.

Rihanna and her new boyfriend Dudley O'Shaughnessy get down and dirty in the video for her new single We Found Love

They apparently started dating after Rihanna hand-picked Dudley O'Shaughnessy to star in the video for her new single We Found Love.

And the chemistry between the new couple is clear to see as they cuddle up in the video, which premiered today.

From kissing, cuddling and making love, the pair's relationship takes a turn for the worse - turning abusive, scary and upsetting.

Cuddling up: The chemistry between the pair is clear to see in the new video, which Rihanna premiered today

Bathtime: A fully-clothed Rihanna climbs on top of her beau as they have a bath together

Talking about the video, Rihanna tweeted today: 'We’ve never done a video like this before. This is probably one of the deepest videos I’ve ever done. It’s all about love and love being like a drug… you definitely get that from this.

'The good feeling of it and the dangers of it. That’s what this video is about.'

The video opens with Rihanna, putting on an Irish accent, narrating the beginning of the story, saying: 'I saw you screaming when no one can hear. You always feel ashamed that someone could be that important that without them, you feel like nothing.

Frolicking: The sight of Rihanna running around topless on his field was enough for one farmer to ask her to leave

'No one will ever understand how much it hurts. You feel hopeless, like nothing can save you. Then when it's over, it's gone, you almost wish you could have all that bad stuff back, so that you can have the good.'

Rihanna and Olympic boxing hopeful Dudley are then seen going headfirst into a passionate, physical relationship - unable to bear to be apart from one another for even a second.

Romantic: The pair are seen wrapping their arms around each other as they head home from their day out

Share and share alike: Dudley is then seen blowing the smoke from the cigarettes into Rihanna's mouth

Tearful Lindsay Lohan led away from court in handcuffs after judge revokes probation

By CHRIS JOHNSON

Welling up: Lindsay Lohan appeared in a Los Angeles courtroom today where a judge revoked her probation and ordered her into custody

A tearful Lindsay Lohan was led away from court in handcuffs and taken into custody today after a judge blasted her for violating probation.

The troubled actress, 25, had her probation revoked pending a November 2 hearing after Judge Stephanie Sautner slammed her for failing to complete time at the Downtown Women's Centre.

The Mean Girls star is now understood to have been released after posting $100,000 and will not spend time behind bars - for now, at least.

Cuffed: Lohan was led away in handcuffs and taken into custody after the hearing. It is likely she will post bail and be released by the end of the day

Faces of pain: Lindsay was her usually-animated self during today's hearing

The outcome is pending the November hearing, which was scheduled by the judge today, where the court will hear further testimonies before deciding on the course of action.

Lindsay was formally arrested in court today and taken into custody after Sautner revoked her probation.

On her booking sheet, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department accidentally listed her sex as male, and detailed how she weighed 116lbs.

Making an impression: Lohan arrived to court in an eggshell blue dress and gold peep-toe heels, teamed with a Chanel handbag, but was sporting rather heavy-handed make-up

Sautner said Linsday should serve 16 hours at the morgue on clean-up duty between now and her next court hearing in an attempt to mitigate the current situation.

The actress had been sentenced to 360 hours community service earlier this year as part of her punishment for stealing a gold necklace from a jewellery store.

During the hearing, Sautner asserted Lohan had managed to wilfully get herself kicked off the programme by cancelling on the women's centre nine times.

Frenzy: The actress was greeted by an army of photographers as she arrived at the Los Angeles Superior Court West District Airport Courthouse

Fighting her corner: She was represented by her lawyer Shawn Holley Chapman

In the spotligh: Teams of paparazzi and TV camera crews were on hand to capture the actress's arrival and departure

Back home: Lindsay returns to her Venice Beach home in California after a dramatic day

Pulling no punches: Judge Stephanie Sautner revoked Lohan's probation pending a hearing

Arrest: Lohan's sex is incorrectly listed as 'male' on her booking sheet processed today following her court appearance

Troubled: Lohan and her bail bondsman will now have to deal with the paperwork to get her released from custody

The unlikely couple: Catherine Tate 'enjoying secret romance with Take That singer Jason Orange'

By SARAH BULL

New couple: Catherine Tate and Jason Orange have apparently been enjoying a secret romance

They are surely one of the most unlikely couples in showbiz history.
But comedian Catherine Tate and singer Jason Orange have been enjoying a secret romance over the past few months, it has been claimed.

The pair, who first met when they took part in a Comic Relief sketch back in March, are said to have been on a string of dates in recent weeks, including an overnight trip to Stratford-upon-Avon.

Hitting it off: The pair first became friends after they appeared together in a Comic Relief sketch back in March

A source told The Sun: 'They were trying to keep things secret but looked very loved up and happy together.

'It's a very unlikely pairing but they have really hit it off. They've been on a number of dates to the theatre and the cinema.

'They really enjoy each other's company. Catherine deserves someone nice and she has landed on her feet with Jason.

Spot the difference: Catherine (second from left) as Jason in Fake That, and the real article (second from right) in Take That

'But they have both been desperate to keep their romance secret.'

Catherine, 43, and Jason, 41, first struck up a friendship when the redhead took on the role of Jason in spoof band Fake That for the sketch.

She starred alongside James Corden, Alan Carr, John Bishop and David Walliams as the fake Take That.

After getting on well while filming, the pair stayed in touch and their romance is thought to have blossomed this summer, following Catherine's split from stage manager partner Twig Clark.

As well as going to see A Midsummer Night's Dream in Stratford, Catherine and Jason have apparently been spotted on dates to the cinema, the National Theatre and at a coffee shop near Jason's flat in West London.

Funny girl: Catherine shot to fame as 'Am I bovvered?' schoolgirl Lauren Cooper

Catherine shot to fame playing Lauren Cooper, famous for her catchphrase 'Am I Bovvered?' in her TV sketch show, before landing a role in Doctor Who.

She has also forged a career for herself in the theatre world, having recently starred alongside David Tennant in Much Ado About Nothing.

While Catherine's most recent relationship was with Clark, who was stage manager for her play at the National Theatre, Jason has remained quiet about his personal life during his time in the spotlight.

He has, however, been romantically linked to stars including singer Lulu and TV presenter Jenny Powell.

By ALANAH ERIKSEN

On form: Miranda gave onlookers a treat when she exited a taxi and he dress rode up to reveal her slim legs

As one of the top supermodels in the world, Miranda Kerr can afford to hire someone to run around after her.

But the down-to-earth Australian ran her own errands yesterday as she pottered around New York, not long after jetting in from Switzerland.

The busy 28-year-old was spotted taking an iconic yellow taxi to the doctor's office before taking her beloved Yorkshire Terrier Frankie for a stroll.

On form: Miranda gave onlookers a treat when she exited a taxi and he dress rode up to reveal her slim legs

And she appeared to have picked up some tips from her years on the catwalk, donning a stylish black and white patterned maxi dress dress, which had a large split up the side.

Onlookers were treated to a view of her slim pins as she exited the cab and the dress rode up.

There was no sign of Miranda's husband, actor Orlando Bloom, or their son Flynn, five months.

A bit of exercise: The Victoria's Secret supermodel also took her Yorkshire Terrier Frankie for a stroll

Blending in: Miranda largely went unnoticed as she strolled around the streets of NY with Frankie

The family have been to a number of countries recently, including Paris where the model walked during Fashion Week, and New Zealand, where Orlando is filming the latest Lord of the Rings movie, The Hobbit.

They have also been spotted in other parts of Europe, the UK and Miranda's native Australia,

But she looked happy to be back home in the U.S. yesterday.

Earlier, she beamed as she walked through the terminal at JFK airport with her little boy in her arms.

Stylish: Miranda looked gorgeous in this patterned maxi dress which she paired with ballet flats

My second baby: Miranda clung to her little dog which looked like her liked being carried rather than walking

The tiny tot shared a giggle with his mother as she cooed and cuddled her precious son.

Meanwhile Miranda is about to make her big come back to the Victoria's Secret catwalk, after giving birth to her son a year ago.

And for her return, she is being given a very special welcome back gift - the chance to wear a push-up bra worth $2.5m.

Recently the supermodel posed up wearing the Fantasy Treasure Bra to promote the upcoming show.

Hot mamma! Miranda only gave birth to Flynn five months ago but already has her figure back

'It was wonderful to have a bit of time off after I was pregnant and having Flynn. But now I’m back in the swing of things and it feels good.'

The November star-studded show will see Kanye West and Maroon 5 perform live.

Other models expected on the catwalk include Alessandra Ambrosio, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Doutzen Kroes, Chanel Iman, Lily Donaldson, Karolina Kurkova, Candice Swanepoel and Adriana Lima.

Working up a sweat: Fitness guru Jennifer N

She was crowned Miss Bikini America after losing 80lbs following the birth of her second child.

And today fitness model Jennifer Nicole Lee showed just how she keeps herself in such amazing shape.

Wearing a pair of tiny bikini bottoms with the words 'Big Fun' emblazoned across the back and a stomach-baring tank worn over a neon pink bra, the 36-year-old raised temperatures in an already balmy Miami as she worked out at a South Beach park.

Revealing: Nicole wore a pair of tiny bikini bottoms with the words 'Big Fun' emblazoned across the back and a stomach-baring tank worn over a neon pink bra

Nicole's tiny outfit showed off her supremely toned and tanned body, which she was perfecting as she worked up a sweat on an exercise ball.

And if her perfectly defined muscles are anything to go by, the message on her vest 'Strong is then new skinny' is certainly the mantra she swears by.

The mother-of-two paired her exercise gear with some Eighties-inspired accessories, including a pair of florescent sneakers, retro sunglasses and a set of giant headphones.

Strike a pose: Nicole put herself through the paces, all whilst preening and posing as she got busy training with her blow-up ball

She completed the look with a swiping of Neon pink lipstick.

The fitness guru even managed to chat on her cell phone to a friend as she jogged on the spot.

Hard work: Nicole's showed off her supremely tanned and toned body in full effect as she got into a set of push-ups

All of Jennifer's hard work certainly pays off.

Just last week, the beautiful brunette looked stunning as she paraded around on the sand in a revealing black bikini.

And in case anyone was mistaken about the shapeliness of her behind, she had the words 'Glutes That Salute' emblazoned on the back.

The pretty brunette spent time topping up her tan and then went for a dip in the ocean to cool down and gave a clear show of her incredibly toned body and killer abs.

Trend: Jennifer was wearing even more slogan emblazoned attire before she stripped off

'It's my goal and passion to help increase the quality of everyone's lifestyle,' Jennifer promises her fans on her website.

Her weight loss journey and subsequent business ventures led her to even appear on Oprah and several television shows.

Cancer-stricken mother dies 23 days after giving birth to daughter she saved by refusing chemotherapy treatment

2011-10-19T12:05:00.000+07:00

By LAURIE WHITWELL

Trade: Stacie Crimm, right, refused chemotherapy for cancer so that her unborn baby Dottie Mae, left, could survive

Faced with the knowledge that only chemotherapy would save her from terminal neck cancer, newly-pregnant Stacie Crimm made the ultimate sacrifice.

The 41-year-old, who had been told by doctors she would never be able to conceive a child, decided to refuse the treatment so her unborn daughter could live instead.

Stacie was able to survive for five months before being forced to deliver Dottie Mae, weighing just 2lbs 1oz, by Caesarean section - and even managed to hold her on one occasion before succumbing to the disease three days later.

Sacrifice: Dottie Mae will now be cared for by Stacie's brother Ray Phillips and his wife Jennifer

'This baby was everything she had in this world,' Stacie's brother Ray Phillips told the Oklahoman.

It was he Stacie called in March when she received the unfathomable news that she was pregnant after years of thinking she was infertile.

'You're not going to believe this,' the mother-to-be had told him in a mixture of laughter and tears, according to The Oklahoman.

But over the next days and weeks, as she shopped for all the things her baby would need, a serious worry began to gnaw at Stacie. She was having severe headaches and double vision, while tremors struck every inch of her body.

Emotional: The moment Stacie was able to meet her baby daughter before she passed away. Also pictured are her siblings Ray and Elizabeth

She began to tell Ray of her growing concerns. 'I'm worried about this baby,' she said in one text, according to the Oklahoman. 'I hope I live long enough to have this baby,' said another message. 'Bubba, if anything happens to me, you take this child.'

Stacie was no longer with the father of the baby and would have raised her daughter as a single mother if she survived.

At her family's encouragement, Stacie visited a number of doctors and in July, a CT scan revealed that she had head and neck cancer.

Tiny: Dottie Mae was delivered four months early by Caesarean section, weighing just 2lbs 1oz

'Nobody said anything, it got real quiet,' Ray told NewsOk. 'I told my sister, "You have done a beautiful thing". It was the perfect moment, that's what I called it.'
Stacie died three days later. Her funeral was on September 14.

Her obituary on the Dudley Funeral Homes website reads: 'Dottie Mae was the light of her life and her greatest accomplishment. She chose to give this baby life instead of taking treatment for herself.'

Dottie Mae now lives with Ray, his wife Jennifer and their four children in their Oklahoma City home
'I think she's a miracle. I just want to do right by her and do what Stacie asked,' Jennifer said.

Loving mother: Dottie Mae was able to meet her mother before Stacie died three days later on September 11

Part of the family: Stacie's brother Ray Phillips has taken Dottie Mae into his home with his four children after the baby's father left his sister

Special unit: Dottie Mae had to be transferred into an ICU module so she could be taken from intensive care to her mother

Not had enough of life in a fishbowl? Big Brother contestant Rebekah Vaughan becomes the face (and bikini body) of new video chat app

2011-10-19T11:51:00.000+07:00

By HOLLY THOMAS

Provocative: Ex Big Brother housemate Rebekah Vaughan posed during a shoot for new Social Media Website Saucytime.com, of which she is now the face

Her ex-Big Brother housemate Aden swore he would marry her immediately after the pair spent their first night alone together in the outside world.

So it's vaguely understandable why social networking site Saucytime.com- which connects models with online users via a video chat application- picked Rebekah Vaughan as their latest 'face'.

Rebekah has reportedly signed a £200,000 per year deal to represent the site, which gives men the chance to have a one-to-one video calls with beauties such as herself.

How 'saucy' Rebekah's first pictures turned out is perhaps up for debate.

Popular choice: Rebekah seemed keen on holding her platinum blonde hair up behind her head for several of the pictures

The 28-year-old made shapes variously on a cobbled beach, a balcony, at the top of stone stairs, and next to a small pool.

For her beach shots she donned an orange and white bikini with a generously sized bottom half, teamed with a Saucytime crop top for some shots.

Rebeckah held her platinum hair up in her hands as she struck several poses on the somewhat rocky looking sand, sticking her tongue out in what must be assumed was a deliberately saucy gesture.

Bootylicious: Rebekah posed a lot of over-the-shoulder shots, showing off her pert behind

The Big Brother contestant, who was the second housemate to be evicted on the series, even braved the chilly water for a couple of shots, wading in thigh-deep to add further diversity to the collection.

Rebeckah wore a different peach coloured string bikini for her balcony shots, showing off her Playboy bunny tattoo at the base of her spine in an over-the shoulder shot.

She then changed into a black and pink number, gripping the metal banister at the top of some steps for a pose which showcased her impressive curves.

Showing off her figure: Rebekah was clearly comfortable with her toned body

Touch up: The relaxed model stood with her denim hot pants unbuttoned as a makeup artist applied lipgloss

Double the joy: Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon are pictured with their twins Monroe and Moroccan during an interview with Barbara Walters

She has kept them away from the spotlight since their birth in April.

But Mariah Carey is about to debut her twins Monroe and Moroccan for the first time in a new interview with Barbara Walters for ABC's 20/20 this Friday night.

In a sneak peek, which doesn't show the babies' faces, the 41-year-old is seen cooing over her children after opening the doors of the New York City home she shares with husband Nick Cannon.

First look: The interview will air in the U.S. on ABC's 20/20 this Friday night

In the interview, the babies appear to already be emulating their parents style.
Little girl Monroe is seen wearing a white puffy dress, while Moroccan looks adorable in a suave camel-coloured blazer.

During their chat with Walters, the super star couple discuss all things parenthood, revealing that the twins already have been given the nicknames 'Roc and Roe.'

Hard-hitting Barbara also fires some pretty personal questions at Mariah during the sit-down.

Personal visit: The 41-year-old opened up the doors of her family's New York City home

When asked whether she trusts her husband of just three years, Mariah is seen cheekily answering: 'Sometimes!', while Nick jokingly protests to the side.

Since the couple's babies' arrival, fans have yet to see whether the youngsters look like the actor or their singer mother.

The only photo the couple have released was of Monroe with a hand covering her face.
Mariah tweeted the picture, with the comment: 'This is baby Monroe saying "no pictures dahhhhling" at 7+1/2 weeks..oh dear :)'

Fun: In the interview, the super star couple discuss all things parenthood, and reveal that the twins already have been given the nicknames 'Roc and Roe'

Mariah and Nick welcomed the twins on April 30.

Mariah recently admitted that pregnancy was tough on her, saying: 'My body went through so much - you have to keep those twins in as long as possible, but it's a sacrifice you make for them.'

Nick also recently said that his children's personalities were already showing through, with Monroe a lot like her famous mother.

Freshman: Emma Watson poses with her thumb up as she attends first term at Oxford University

Sitting next to her in a lecture, a hungover student might be mistaken for not recognising Emma Watson.

Dressed down in jeans, boots and an anorak, the Harry Potter actress looked like any other proud newbie on her first day at Oxford University.

Only Watson is worth £24million and is a global superstar.

Hogwarts graduate: Emma has come a long way since her Harry Potter school days with Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint

The 21-year-old beauty posted a picture of herself on her blog, grinning at the camera with her thumb up as she posed outside the iconic building.

Watson also clutched an armful of books and revealed she will be 'busy studying' as she embarks on the new term.

The Burberry model wrote: 'To Everyone who is starting a New School Year, (sorry those who have been at school for a while Oxford starts late).

'Just to say have a great term and good luck with all your work.

'You might not hear from me for a while because I will be really busy studying but I wanted to just say hi and bye.'

School daze: Emma stars alongside Logan Lerman in The Perks of Being a Wallflower

The young star put her education on hold at America's Brown University earlier this year to focus on her acting.

She has since made My Week With Marilyn, due out later this year, and The Perks Of Being A Wallflower.

But Emma has said she will return to Brown to complete her degree.

She remains enrolled at Brown, even though she will study at Oxford this autumn, and intends to return to Providence, Rhode Island, next year to complete her studies at the Ivy League school.

Hot metal! Jennifer Aniston takes the plunge in a daring low-cut silver mini... as matronly Reese Witherspoon covers up in trouser suit

Getting cosy: The fellow Thespians posed together backstage at the event, where Aniston was honoured

Jennifer Aniston is seven years wiser than Reese Witherspoon.

And that wisdom apparently paid off for the 42-year-old actress last night at the Elle Annual Women in Hollywood event, where she managed to outfox her fellow Thespian friend.

Aniston was streaks ahead as she stepped out to the Beverly Hills soiree in a daringly short, low-cut silver dress.

As a result it was the Friends star who came off looking more youthful than 35-year-old Reese, who played it somewhat demure in a Navy blue trouser suit.

Jen, who is among the honourees at the 18th annual gala, posed for photographs with Reese - who played Rachel Green's sister Jill in two episodes of Friends 11 years ago - backstage.

The pair cosied up and put on their best smiles as they chatted amid a frenzy of flashbulbs.

Gaunt Demi Moore continues her disappearing act as she displays shockingly thin frame at film premiere

Shockingly skinny: Demi Moore arrived at the Margin Call premiere in New York last night revealing her extremely thin frame

At the start of the month it was claimed her weight had plummeted to around seven stone after allegations emerged that her husband Ashton Kutcher had been unfaithful with a 22-year-old blonde.

And it appears Demi Moore has lost even more weight in recent weeks, with the actress cutting a shockingly skinny figure at the premiere of her new movie Margin Call.

Disappearing act: Demi looks considerably thinner than she did at a premiere last year

The 48-year-old star looked disturbingly thin at the New York event last night, which will no doubt raise further concerns about how she is coping.

Demi was dressed in a demure red dress which ended just below her knee, but while it looked like it should have hugged her figure it hung loosely, emphasising her tiny frame.

Lady in red: The demure dress served to highlight Demi's shrinking frame

The modest V-neckline simply highlighted her prominent collarbones and the capped sleeves revealed that Demi has barely any body fat on her sinewy arms.

While Demi might have put on a brave face, smiling on the red carpet, and was still wearing her wedding ring, the effect of recent events was plain for anybody to see.

Earlier this month Grazia magazine said Demi's weight was 'hovering around the seven stone mark' which, given her five foot five height, would make her significantly underweight.

Putting on a brave face? Demi was still wearing her wedding ring and a smile despite her husband's alleged cheating

And since then it appears that Demi has shed even further pounds, ones she simply cannot afford to lose.

Demi joined her Margin Call co-stars on the red carpet and put her problems to one side as she chatted with Kevin Spacey and Paul Bettany.

Co-stars: Paul Bettany, Demi Moore and Kevin Spacey pose on the red carpet for the thriller which documents the early stages of the financial crisis

No-so animal magic: TOWIE's Lauren Goodger attends Joey Essex's jungle-themed pool party in a very unflattering dress

2011-10-18T12:18:00.000+07:00

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Unflattering: Lauren Goodger stepped out in a dress that did nothing for her as she arrived at Joey Essex's pool party

She admitted recently that despite loving her curves, she really hates her legs and thinks they are 'disgusting'.

So why would Lauren Goodger then insist on wearing something that not only shows them off, but does absolutely nothing to flatter them?

The Only Way is Essex star was snapped arriving at a pool party hosted by friend and co-star Joey Essex.

A bigger size next time? Lauren's hair looked fantastic but the dress clung to her in all the wrong places

Her hair - which was possibly boosted with extensions - looked sensational as her long blonde curls cascaded down her shoulders and back.

But the tiger-print dress she was wearing did nothing for her and showed off her dimpled thighs, a part of her which she has frequently admitted to disliking.

Unfortunately, not even her towering heels, which usually add length and improve posture for most women, didn't help either.

Party guests: Lucy Mecklenburgh, in a snakeskin print blouse, and Mario Falcone arrive for the bash

And the dress was far too tight for her and clung to her curves in all the wrong places as she got out of her Mini outside Joey's new bachelor pad.

She was joined at the bash by Mario Falcone and his girlfriend Lucy Mecklenburgh, who has dressed for the occasion in a grey snakeskin blouse and faux fur jacket.

Better luck next time, Gemma: Miss Collins took her costume a little bit too far

Unfortunately for Gemma Collins, she must have missed a memo somewhere as she looked like she had either just come from or had been providing the entertainment at a kids party as she pulled up with a painted face.

Joey had also invited the new woman in his life and her friend who viewers met in last night's episode.

The new girls: Cara Kilbey and Billi Mucklow, who were introduced in the last episode of TOWIE, got into the theme of the party as they got of of their car

80s style: Billi looked like she could have been a member of Tight Fit

The new girls: Cara and Billi joined the TOWIE cast last night as they attended Kirk Norcross's karaoke party

Cara Kilbey and Billi Mucklow was snapped arriving together and had certainly got into the party spirit.

Billi, who was first introduced when she met Kirk on a petrol station forecourt, looked like a member of 80s pop band Tight Fit in her furry skirt and boots and feathers in her hair, a bird-like decoration painted onto her left arm.

Her friend Cara, who was introduced when Billi brought her to Kirk Norcross''s karaoke party at Sugar Hut, had also followed Joey's dress code perfectly.

Try again tomorrow: Lauren later changed into a different outfit for Lydia Bright's store launch, but didn't look too much better

'What do you mean I can't sit down for two weeks?' TOWIE's Chloe Sims continues her quest to get the perfect 'JLo esque' bottom

2011-10-18T11:54:00.000+07:00

More surgery: The Only Way Is Essex star Chloe Sims visited a surgeon on last night's show to inquire about having buttocks implants

It's a good thing that Chloe Sims doesn't have a 9 to 5 job where she sits at a computer all day.

The Only Way Is Essex star wouldn't be able to get much done if this was the case after being told she wouldn't be able to sit on her derrière for two weeks if she has bottom implants.

On last night's episode of the ITV2 reality show, the 29-year-old model continued her quest to have the 'perfect' body by attending a doctor's consultation to find out more about the procedure.

'I don't like my bum': The model showed Dr Berry what she didn't like about her bottom during the consultation

But the brunette didn't receive the news she was expecting.

Being a well-known fan of plastic surgery, Chloe is no stranger to post-operation recovery time but even she wasn't prepared for the surgeon told her.

Looking perplexed when she was told she won't be able to sit down for a fortnight if she had her bottom enhanced, she asked the surgeon, Dr Berry: 'So how do people sit?'

Stripping off: Chloe met with a 3D imaging specialist to show him exactly how she wanted her bottom to look like

To which he replied: 'They don't.'

The professional told Chloe that sitting down could risk displacing the implants, and that she would have to sleep on her side or on her front.

'That's bad because I've already got these in the way,' she said pointing to her enhanced 34EE bust.

The reality TV star went on to tell Dr Berry that she felt she has 'everything at the front but nothing at the back' and said she doesn't like her bottom.

My vision: The 29-year-old said she wanted her rear to 'lift up and come out a little bit'

And even though the surgeon told Chloe that she would be able to feel the implants inside her buttocks, when she sat down with another professional to discuss exactly what she wanted, she appeared to want the surgery even more.

Describing that she wants to 'lift it up and have it come out a little bit,' Chloe watched as a photograph of her rear was enhanced digitally on the screen.

But she was keen to ask if the changes that had been made were dramatic or subtle, and when the reply was no, she said: 'That looks so much better, I really want it done now.'

Before and after: The specialist showed Chloe what her future bottom could look like and she was pleased

Fan of surgery: Chloe has already had breast implants and work done on her face

Position of the day: Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield talk to sexperts Jo Hemmings and Dr Jonty on This Morning as an elderly couple demonstrate the 'face to face' sex position

Presenter Phillip Schofield kicked off This Morning’s ‘Sexperts talk libido’ segment by telling those with little eyes, ‘you need to avert’.

But what came next shocked even the most mature of audiences tuning into the ITV show, by demonstrating the latest in vibrator technology and sex positions for the over 60s.

Schofield said: ‘We ought to make it clear that we are going to be demonstrating positions, showing sex aids and discussing intimate details during this item.’

Embarrassed? Holly Willoughby giggles and looks away as she discusses libido matters with the sexperts

But despite his warning, the segment still left viewers shocked at the early morning sex talk segment.

Relationship expert Jo Hemmings showed the audience the new vibrators on the market for 'clitoral stimulation', including the ‘ears of the rabbit’, a ‘glow in the dark bullet vibrator’ and a remote

Bed-wear: The elderly couple dressed in blue pyjamas as they acted as models in the segment about sex for over 60s

She then went on to explain the sex position of the day, by using an elderly couple dressed in pyjamas to demonstrate on a bed.

Hemmings said: ‘It’s called face to face and you don’t need to be an Olympic athlete for it.

‘She’s safely tucked in between his legs and it’s a position that’s comfortable and easy, you don’t need to jump around the bed and it’s very intimate, very pleasurable and very warm.’

Too early for sex talk? The segment shocked some viewers, who took to Twitter to voice their opinion of the 'inappropriate' item

Latest technology: Relationship expert Jo Hemmings shows off a remote controlled vibrator on the show

The controversial segment, which aired during children’s half term, sent viewers taking to Twitter to complain about the sexually explicit content.

Actually Imogen, most people get dressed before they leave the gym... especially when it's only 44 degrees outside!

Aren't you cold? Imogen Thomas left the gym in London today wearing a crop top and tiny shorts, despite the very cold temperatures

The weather in London might have taken a turn for the worse over the past few days, but one person is determined to pretend the capital is still in the throes of an unseasonable heatwave.

Imogen Thomas was spotted leaving her gym today wearing a tiny pair of blue shorts and a revealing pink crop top after a vigorous workout.

But while Imogen's outfit would have been fine a couple of weeks ago, the 28-year-old model must have been freezing as she braved the 44 degree cold (6 degrees C).

Baring all: Imogen obviously wasn't feeling the cold as she didn't use the cardigan she had tied around her waist

However, Imogen certainly didn't appear to be suffering in the cooler temperatures as she made her way home.

In fact, the outfit she stepped out in yesterday was much more suitable for wearing in October - a comfortable pink tracksuit and flip flops.

Earlier, former Big Brother star Imogen had tweeted a picture of herself working out in the gym.

Working it! Imogen tweeted a picture of herself working out in the gym this morning

She accompanied the shot with the caption: 'Yes work itttttt! Kick arseeeeee...no1 mess with me ;-)'

Imogen's workout came as she told her followers on Twitter that she is suffering with a huge amount of stress as she moves house.

She wrote: 'My life is upside down. Moving house is stressful. Don't know where anythin is! Grrrrr!'

Grabbing a drink: Imogen was spotted picking up a drink after her gym session

Imogen later tweeted: 'I am so stressed. But so happy with everything in my life. Is that possible?'

The Welsh brunette credits regular workout sessions for helping to keep her sane, but said on Twitter that she has been putting on weight in recent weeks.

When someone said she was looking too skinny, Imogen replied: 'Really? I've put on weight since america.'

She later told another fan: 'I can't get skinny I love my food way too much!'

Curvy and proud: Imogen is rightly proud of her figure, despite admitting recently she has put on weight over the past few weeks

That's better: Imogen's outfit yesterday, a comfortable tracksuit, was much more suitable for the cooler weather

Adam Levine's missing torso, Kristen Stewart's amputated arm and Beyoncé's thighs - it must be the latest round of Photoshop fails

2011-10-18T09:36:00.000+07:00

By DAISY DUMAS

No right side: Adam Levine looks like he is missing a fair portion of his torso in an image in Vogue Russia magazine. The Maroon 5 star was photographed with girlfriend, model Anne Vyalitsyna

They need less help than most of us mere mortals in the looks department, yet they continue to be on the receiving end of some far-from realistic airbrushing escapades.

No matter how beautiful, or famous, some celebrities are, it seems they are never far from an embarrassing Photoshop fail.

The latest handful of bloopers comes via some of the world's glossiest and most exclusive magazine titles.

Arm fail: The beautiful figure of Twilight star Kristen Stewart is not quite complete on Glamour's November cover - the star apparently missing her lower left arm

Perhaps most bizarre is Russian Vogue's manifestation of Adam Levine's torso.

The thighs have it: Beyoncé Knowles' upper legs seem on the over-airbrushed side on the cover of U.S. Harper's Bazaar, photographer Terry Richardson whittling the voluptuous star's legs to uncharacteristic proportions

The Maroon 5 singer and boyfriend of Russian model Anna Vyalitsyna, appears to have lost a sizeable portion of his midriff at the hands of over-enthusiastic digital re-touching in the November edition of the magazine.

Rather than slimming down the Californian rock star's toned figure, seen wrapped around Miss Vyalitsyna's never-ending legs, the 32-year-old - who in the past has stripped naked for UK's Cosmopolitan magazine in aid of testicular cancer awareness - is seen with gaping nothingness where his right side should be.

Behind-the-scenes: A film from the shoot shows the star's figure in its more usual, and famous, curvaceous form

An editor at Photoshop Disasters, told MailOnline that the image 'certainly is a disaster and we believe that they removed his torso and maybe increased the width of her leg.'

Not limited to Vogue, Glamour magazine have also fallen prey to over-zealous digital enhancement.

Kristen Stewart, star of the Twilight Saga, appears to be missing her lower left arm on the cover of its November issue.

While the 21-year-old actress may be used to hocus pocus in her role as Bella Swan in the vampire series, there's no doubt that her hidden limb is incongruous in the shot, which was the responsibility of the same team who infamously gave singer Fergie different sized legs and a missing lower torso on a cover last year.

It all makes for an oddly imbalanced image, Miss Stewart's left arm coming to sudden halt at about chest height and disappearing behind her (very flexible) lower leg.

Bootylicious: Beyoncé performed in August, her thighs a healthy and more typical size than those on the cover of Harper's Bazaar

Then there are Beyoncé's lovely legs.

The 30-year-old mega-star, whose first baby with husband Jay-Z is due in February, is a not a woman whose figure cries out for anything other than praise.

Why was British driver offered $5m to race from the back of the grid around lethally fast 225mph Indy circuit before fatal smash?

2011-10-17T21:09:00.000+07:00

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Tragedy: Dan Wheldon's number 77 car, far left, launches into the air after clipping a vehicle that was in front of it. Moments later Mr Wheldon smashes into the fencing to his right

The British IndyCar champion killed in a 225mph smash had been offered a $5million incentive to race from the back, it was revealed today.

As tributes poured in to Dan Wheldon, it also emerged that the 33-year-old had voiced concerns about the speed of cars and the cramped conditions on the track.

The father-of-two suffered horrendous injuries after his car hit another vehicle at breakneck speeds in the Las Vegas Indy 300. He was catapulted helplessly into the air before landing on a barrier and suffering fatal injuries.

Mr Wheldon's blue and white car takes off in the air. It appears to have hit the back of the green vehicle in front, which acted like a ramp and launched the British driver upwards

Mr Wheldon's Dallara-Honda had weaved its way through the field of cars after starting at the back in a desperate bid to claim the lucrative prize.

Just days earlier Mr Wheldon had joined a number of other drivers in expressing the fears over the speed of cars and the cramped conditions on the oval shaped track. But in a blog post, he had promised fans he would go out to win and put on a show of 'pure entertainment'.

Out of control: A close up of the moment of impact shows the rear left wheel of the green car pushed up by Mr Wheldon's vehicle, which reaches a steep angle

The 1.5 mile-long Motor Speedway track in Las Vegas is 60 per cent shorter than the one used for Indy-33 races. It may have caused a deadly combination of 34 cars crowded on the track, lighting fast speeds and fierce competition.

Milliseconds after the initial impact, Mr Wheldon's car has spun upside down as it hurtles towards the fencing. Will Power's car, right, is just beginning to take off

Will Power's car is flung into the air as a large number of vehicles collide in the pile-up and sparks fly. Mr Wheldon's vehicle has gone ahead of them and can no longer be seen in this shot

The fiery pile-up, on the 11th lap of the 300-mile race, was caused by contact on Turn 2 and sucked in almost half of the race’s 34 participants.

Mr Wheldon, a former private school pupil originally from Buckinghamshire, was rushed to hospital in a helicopter but died as a result of his severe 'unsurvivable' injuries.

Will Power's number 12 car is seen flying through the air. The vehicle was not crushed against the fencing in the same manner as Mr Wheldon's and he survived the accident

As the racing world today came to terms with the death, leading figures from the sport paid tribute to the 'talented and inspirational driver'.

Lewis Hamilton, who was the 2008 Formula One World Champion, said: 'This is an extremely sad day. Dan was a racer I'd followed throughout my career, as I often followed in his footsteps as we climbed the motorsport ladder in the UK.

Will Power's car lands close to the barrier facing backwards without suffering the severe damage inflicted on Mr Wheldon's vehicle, which is further down the track

'He was an extremely talented driver. As a British guy, who not only went over to the States but who twice won the Indy 500, he was an inspirational guy, and someone that every racing driver looked up to with respect and admiration.

'This is a tragic loss at such a young age. My heart goes out to his family and friends during this extremely difficult time.'

Jenson Button wrote on Twitter: 'Just woken up to the most horrific news. Dan Weldon RIP. I have so many good memories of racing with Dan in the early 90s, a true fighter. We've lost a legend in our sport but also a great guy.'

Smashed to pieces: Wheldon's car, only identifiable by the B & W logo, is shown in the far left of the picture. The car is upside down and the driver's head has clearly been in contact with the barrier

The severe extent of the damage to the number 77 car, left, can be seen. Wires and shards of metal are hanging loose from it as flames engulf the tale

Fire: Mr Wheldon's car is momentarily lost is a ball of flames as it hits the barrier. Wheels and parts of the body of the vehicle are flung onto the track

Flames: Mr Wheldons car skids across the asphalt on its nose having lost both front wheels and the rear spoiler in the crash. Will Power's vehicle is seen behind him against the fence

'Unsurvivable injuries: Mr Wheldon's head is flung to the left as his 77 car, now without any wheels, spins away from the fence towards the centre of the track

Medics rush Mr Wheldon's damaged car as it becomes clear that he is severely injured. Some workers are seen waving, frantically trying to get more assistance

The race to save his life: Dan Wheldon is loaded into a medical helicopter and airlifted to hospital

Proud family man: Wheldon poses with wife Susie, who is holding baby son Oliver, and older son Sebastian on the day after he won Indianapolis 500 in May of this year. With them is the Borg-Warner trophy

The former champion's injuries were so bad that there was little that the medics could do to save him. He was pronounced dead a short while later and officials were informed two hours after the initial crash.

Mr Wheldon's wife Susie, and two sons, Sebastian, two, and six-month-old Oliver, are understood to have been at his bedside when he died, as well as his two brothers and a sister.

Devastated: Team mates Jenson Button, left, and Lewis Hamilton, right, have both paid tribute to Wheldon who they have called 'inspirational'

It's not just about the baby bump! Pregnant Beyonce shows off her other voluptuous curves in Love On Top video

2011-10-17T15:53:00.000+07:00

By SARAH FITZMAURICE

All about the music: While speculation has been rife surrounding her pregnancy today Beyonce's new video Love On Top premiered

She sang the song to a stunned audience at the MTV Video Music Awards after announcing her pregnancy.

And while everyone is now focusing on her baby bump Beyonce showed off her other curves in the video for her new song Love On Top.

The mother-to-be dons plunging suit jackets and bottom bearing leotards to show off her figure in the energetic video.

Showing off her curves: The video sees the singer strut her stuff in several plunging jackets

Beyonce also showed off her fancy footwork in the video and is seen singing while performing a high-energy dance routine with five male backing singers.

Despite the fast paced movement it appears that Beyonce decided to ditch a bra as she sang in no less than three different plunging suits.

Showing off her curves: The video sees the singer strut her stuff in several plunging jackets

It isn’t just her front that is on show but Beyonce also shows off her famous rear at the start of the video wearing just a skimpy black leotard for the opening shot.

This week Beyonce has been showing off her pregnancy bump after considerable speculation that she had worn a fake one.

Dance class: The video takes place in a dance studio with an amazing view

Rumours surfaced after it seemed that her bump became squished when she appeared on Australian TV.

Her representatives quickly dismissed the reports as 'stupid, ridiculous and false'.

However Beyonce proved her point during a rainy day in New York, stepping out in the Big Apple wearing a flowing snakeskin blouse which she teamed with black jeans, hat and vertiginous buckled boot heels.

Tiny leotard: As well as showing off her cleavage in the plunging suits Beyonce shakes her booty in a tiny leotard

The next day the singer stepped out in another curve-hugging ensemble which ensured her growing tummy was on show for all to see.

Beyonce, who is expecting her first child in February, announced her pregnancy at the MTV Video Music Awards in August.

Sexy in spots: Roxanne Pallett celebrated being cast in Waterloo Road with a sunshine break in Lanzarote

It was recently announced she is set to join the cast of hit BBC1 show Waterloo Road.
So what better way for Roxanne Pallett to celebrate her new role than to head off on a sunshine break in Lanzarote before she gets stuck in to filming the school-based drama.

The 28-year-old actress, most famous for playing Jo Sugden in Emmerdale, was spotted showing off her curves in a red and white spotty two-piece as she basked in the sunshine during her holiday.

Slender: The 28-year-old actress showed off her toned figure in the red and white two-piece

And after getting a bit too hot following an afternoon of relaxing in the balmy weather, Roxanne coolled off with a quick shower by the pool.

Despite looking fantastic in her pretty polkadot bikini, Roxanne said recently she's not a fan of diet, and could never reduce her food intake because she loves eating too much.

She said: 'I'm really normal about food. In this industry I've seen girls have a real issue about eating. But I came from a home where no one spoke about weight or dieting and it was a triumph if you got seconds.

'Thankfully, I love food and enjoy everything about it!'

Having fun: Roxanne appeared to be enjoying herself as she soaked in the sunshine by her hotel pool

Former Dancing On Ice contestant Roxanne also credits regular exercise for helping her stay in shape.

She said: 'Getting active made such a difference to my weight and shape. I jog three times a week but only for 20 minutes. I do it in the mornings because it clears my head and sets me up for the day.

'I enjoy going on power walks with my mum, Monica and I do my tummy exercises every day, to keep my stomach toned.'

Cooling off: After an afternoon of sunbathing, Roxanne cooled off with a quick shower before heading inside

Screen star: Roxanne is probably most famous for playing Jo Sugden in Emmerdale, seen here with James Hooton

Katy Perry ditches the latex and lollipops for a soulful acoustic performance of her new ballad on the X Factor

By ANDREA MAGRATH

Acoustic: Katy Perry transformed her usual stage presence for a soulful performance of her new single The One That Got Away on the X Factor

Her fans are accustomed to her prancing around in colourful latex costumes on a stage filled with oversized cartoon-like fruit and sweets.

But Katy Perry ditched the extravagant staging for her surprisingly paired down performance on the X Factor tonight.

Katy played her guitar and sang with two back-up singers for her new single, ballad The One That Got Away.

Something missing? Twitter users were quick to point out that the singer was without her wedding ring, but it was back in place later when the singer exited the building

The 26-year-old had her hair, back to pink, curled into a Forties style 'do and wore an unusually simple outfit of white short-sleeved shirt and black trousers.

But eagle-eyed fans on Twitter were quick to note that she was not wearing her wedding ring.

But the ring was back in place shortly afterwards, when Katy signed autographs for fans after the show.

Soulful: The ballad was a departure from her usual upbeat pop tracks

The song is a departure from Perry's uptempo pop tracks, and saw the singer show off her raw talent as she harmonised with her band.

Katy was pictured filming the music video for The One That Got Away earlier in the month, made up to look like an old woman.

Katy has been performing her new single as a mash-up with Adele's hit song Someone Like You at a number of her UK concerts.

Cartoon motion: Her fans are more accustomed to seeing Katy in colourful, larger-than-life stage settings

Boy band: The Wanted performed their new single Lightning

Perry told X Factor host Dermot O'Leary after her performance that last night she completed the 95th show on her California Dreams tour at London's O2 Arena.

Next up, the Teenage Dream hitmaker is on to Liverpool. Judge Gary Barlow offered some advice on nightlife in the north, telling Katy to visit nightclub Grafton - which is actually shut down.

Also performing tonight was The Wanted, who sang their new single Lightning.

'I am a gay man': Star Trek star Zachary Quinto confirms he is homosexual

He's gay: Heroes star Zachary Quinto comes out of the closet

Zachary Quinto has joined the ranks of celebrities like Ricky Martin, Lance Bass and Ellen DeGeneres by publicly admitting he's gay.

In a new interview with New York Magazine, the 34-year-old actor finally reveals the truth about his sexuality.

The actor, best known for playing Spock in the Star Trek reboot and Sylar on Heroes, confirms that he's 'a gay man' in the article.

The truth: The 34-year-old actor finally admits the truth to New York Magazine

'As a gay man, it made me feel like there's still so much work to be done, and there's still so many things that need to be looked at and addressed,' he said.

He had refused to confirm rumours until now even in an interview with the New York Times last year.

Despite his decision to remain non-committal about his sexuality until now, he has openly spoken out against bullying, even making a video for the 'It Gets Better' campaign to support victimised gay and lesbian teens.

Beam me up, Scotty: Quinto as Spock in 2009's Star Trek reboot

'And again, as a gay man I look at that and say there’s a hopelessness that surrounds it, but as a human being I look at it and say Why? Where’s this disparity coming from, and why can’t we as a culture and society dig deeper to examine that? We’re terrified of facing ourselves,' he said in reference to bullying.

He may play a straight, sexual man in his latest role, a cameo in Anna Faris' new film What's Your Number, but Quinto is also known for playing a series of gay parts.

He has appeared as a gay man on Tori spelling's TV show So NoTORIous and currently plays the kinky dead owner of a haunted house on FX's American Horror Story.

A new hero: The openly gay actor on his hit NBC series, Heroes

Next up for the openly gay actor is the October 21 premiere of his new film, Margin Call.

The thriller revolves around the key people at a investment bank over a 24-hour period during the early stages of the financial crisis and stars Demi Moore, Gossip Girls' Penn Badgley and Paul Bettany.

He will also reprise his role as Spock in the 2012 sequel to his hit 2009 film, Star Trek.

X Factor heartthrob Frankie Cocozza has bedded 67 girls, his proud father claims

Lothario: Frankie Cocozza's father has claimed that his famous son has bedded 67 women

He drew attention to himself during the X Factor auditions by displaying his behind, which had the names of previous conquests tattooed on it.

But while Frankie Cocozza, 18, says he wants to be taken seriously as a singer now that the live shows have commenced, his father is not helping his cause.

Frankie Senior has come out claiming that his teenage son has bedded at least 67 women.

Proud: Frankie Senior posed with his son, who had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, after last night's show

Frankie's father told The People today that his lothario son has already beat his own track record.

The 45-year-old said: 'I don’t think he has slept with more than 100 girls. I think he is on number 67. I’d say my number is 30 or 40 but it might be more.'

Romance? The 18-year-old was thought to be cosying up to fellow contestant Amelia Lily

The father-son duo posed up together for photographers outside the show last night.

Frankie has voiced his concern on a number of occasions throughout bootcamp and judges houses that he is just seen as a 'cheeky chappy' and not a serious contender with real talent.

Flirty: Geordie Shore star Holly Hagan claimed the teen had been sending her saucy text messages in recent weeks

But that hasn't stopped his flirtatious ways.

The teen was rumoured to have enjoyed a romp with controversial Over 25s contestant Kitty Brucknell in the jacuzzi at the finalists' temporary home in a Hertfordshire mansion earlier in the month.

Soon after, it emerged he was romancing Amelia Lily, 16, who left the series last Sunday night.

The young couple were pictured cuddling on a couch, and left the show together last week after Amelia's axeing from the competition.

Classy boy: Frankie dropped his trousers outside the Spring studios and showed his bottom to his fans

A spanner was thrown in the works of that romance, however, when Geordie Shore star holly Hagan claimed publicly that Frankie had been sending her saucy text messages in recent weeks after the two hit it off on Twitter.

In an interview with Heat, busty redhead Holly said Frankie had texted her but didn't want the magazine to reveal exactly what he'd said.

But the publication said it had seen one of the messages and described it as 'filthy'. 'On a scale of the steam factor, the kettle's boiled over,' Holly said at the time.

Frankie's father is certain his son has the X Factor on stage as well as off.

Serious contender: Frankie has voiced his concern that he is only seen as a 'cheeky chappy' and not taken seriously as a singer

He told the People: 'He’s got the looks, he can sing and he will get better.

'He’s been around for two years, some of the others in contention have probably been in their bedrooms singing, singing, singing. He hasn’t. He’s got the personality, the whole X Factor.'

Shock near exit: Nu Vibe went up against assumed favourite Frankie Cocozza singing for survival

Gary Barlow was the only judge who boasted that he did not feel nervous ahead of tonight's results on the X Factor.

It seems the Take That judge may have overestimated the female fan base for his contestant Frankie Cocozza, who ended up in the bottom two alongside Nu Vibe.

The teen's survival performance was enough to keep him in the competition though, as only Nu Vibe's mentor Tulisa chose to save the group.

Shock near exit: Nu Vibe went up against assumed favourite Frankie Cocozza singing for survival

Nu Vibe performed a slowed-down, almost unrecognisable rendition of Cheryl Cole's Promise This.

Tulisa shed tears as she watched her group perform, telling the audience that she was so sad to see the group in this position as she had so much faith in them.

The group, who were thrown together during boot camp after auditioning as solo artists, were graceful in defeat, thanking the judges for the opportunity.

During their chat on the Xtra Factor later, the band nominated Misha B and The Risk as their favourites of the finalists, and Craig as the one to win.

Tears: Tulisa couldn't hide her emotion as the group performed for the last time

The group tweeted after the show: 'Thank you for everything. We've had such a great experience. Sorry we can't perform to you on the X factor again but this is not the last of Nu Vibe.'

Earlier Gary Barlow was shocked when his star contestant Frankie was announced as one of the bottom two acts.

Not good enough: The 18-year-old admitted after last night's show that he feared his performance wasn't good enough

'I can't believe I'm saying this,' Gary said. 'Frankie Cocozza singing for survival,' before Frankie performed I Can't Do This By Myself.

Throughout his song the 18-year-old clearly kept the girls in the audience happy, blowing kisses to his fan base.

Emotional: Tulisa was in tears as her act was sent home, and said she couldn't understand why it had happened

Style wars: Kelly chose a dramatic black gown with a plunging neckline, while Tulisa opted for a short, flirty prom-style frock with a very bust neckline

Tulisa was in tears when she joined her group onstage, telling Dermot that she still believes in them and was confused as to why they had been axed. 'Keep going guys,' she urged.

Glam factor: Viewers were quick to note the female judges' cleavage

The results show kicked off tonight with the finalists first group performance, to Hello by Martin Solveig, which had even the judges dancing in their seats, followed by a standing ovation.

Kelly wore a floor-length black gown with a plunging front that showed off plenty of cleavage,

A sheer body stocking covered her décolletage and torso.
The Destiny's Child star wore her hair in tumbling curls with dramatic dangling earrings and bangles.

Tulisa chose a flirty cream prom-style dress which had Twitter users all commenting on her substantial cleavage.

Upbeat: The finalists did there first group performance to Hello by Martin Solveig

Excited: johnny, who received a tweet from Kylie Minogue after his performance last night, was an early name to be called

Celebration: Girl band Rhythmix are so far successfully beating the 'curse of the girl bands' and are through to week three

Surprise: Sophie looked like she couldn't believe it when her name was called, after voicing her concerns that fans didn't know her yet

Acoustic: Katy Perry performed her new single, ballad The One That Got Away

Boy band: The Wanted performed their new single Lightning

Making her mark! Selena Gomez shows off the sexy dance moves that won her talent judge spot

2011-10-16T16:21:00.000+07:00

By MIKE LARKIN

Eye-popping: Selena Gomez gave her fans a thrill as she ran across the stage in her low-cut dress in Vancouver last night

She has just won a spot as a judge on dance competition Make Your Mark.

And it was clear to see why, after the pretty starlet stunned fans with her sexy dance moves at a show in Vancouver last night.

The Wizards of Waverly Place star sparkled in her figure-hugging glittery dress

Excited: The star did her best Frankie Howerd impersonation as she hammed it up

Selena, 19, showed off plenty of cleavage in a low-cut number that flattered her figure during the show, which was part of her debut headlining tour We Own The Night.

Her silky blue skirt gave fans a tantalising glimpse of her amazing legs, while she upped the glamour stakes even further with gold shoes.

Making a stand: Glamorous Selena looked pleased with herself between songs

And she gave her fans a thrill when she ran from one end of the stage to another in the outfit.

The fact she was able to dance and run around the stage in her high-heels was almost as impressive as the performance itself.

Because she's worth it: Selena showed off locks that are worthy of a shampoo endorsement as she swirled her head

She's at it again: Selena loved running around the stage despite wearing high-heels

A magical stomach: The Wizards of Waverly Place star bared her toned tummy

Earlier in her performance she showed off her perfectly flat stomach in glittering purple trousers and a high cut hooded top.

No doubt it was her dance floor prowess that persuaded Disney bosses to make their protege one of the judges on Make Your Mark.

Selena said: 'I have never judged anything, I’m kind of excited.'

However it seems it will be her throng of males fans that will be getting energised after rumours emerged she may be splitting up with her teen idol boyfriend Justin Bieber.

Selena's climax: The star clearly loves to go out with a bang as shown by the storm of confetti

Kitty Brucknell silences her X Factor bullies and dazzles the judges with Alice In Wonderland-themed performance

2011-10-16T15:16:00.000+07:00

By KIRSTY MCCORMACK

Bullied: Kitty Brucknell, who performed a Bjork hit, explained how she almost left the show due to negative attention she's received

The theme on tonight's X Factor was love and heartache and Kitty Brucknell has certainly experienced heartache.

The 26-year-old singer wowed the judges again tonight with a rendition of Bjork's It's Oh So Quiet, but before that she spoke out about bullies and the reception she received on last week's show.

'The people who booed me last week should be ashamed of themselves,' she said.

Speaking up: the blonde hopeful said that those who bullied her on last week's show should be 'ashamed of themselves.'

'Anyone who's ever been booed knows how horrible it feels.'

The blonde hopeful also explained that after all the bad press she received about her performance last week, something good also came out of it - a message from Queen guitarist, Brian May, who told her that he loved her performance of the band's hit last week.

She also revealed that she almost quit the show because of all the bullying that she's endured.

Different: The blonde hopeful always manages to wow the judges yet she was booed on last week's show

'It was the first time I have been bullied like that since I was a child. It took me to a very dark place,' she added.

But she certainly wasn't in a dark place as she performed tonight and finished the show on a high.

Singing Bjork's It's Oh So Quiet, Kitty was dressed as Alice in Wonderland, wearing a white dress with a bright blonde wig and a black headband and started her performance by laying on the stage which was adorned with giant playing cards.

Alice in Wonderland: Kitty enjoyed mad tea part as she sang a Bjork hit on the second live show

She then moved onto a large lit up dining table and was joined by dancers that included the mad hatter, the white rabbit and other characters from the famous Lewis Carrol novel.

And even though she left Tulisa feeling 'speechless' once again Kitty proved that she can sing and is a strong contender in the competition.

Dressed in white: Kitty didn't exactly look like Alice in Wonderland in her tutu dress and white boots

But before her there were eleven other performances of love and heartache.
First up to perform was boy band Nu Vibe who chose to sing their own version of U2's eighties hit, With Or Without You.

'No vibe': Louis and Gary weren't impressed with the boys chemistry on the live show tonight

Standing tall: Boy band Nu Vibe performed a U2 love song With Or Without You

Singing to win: Nu Vibe opened up the show by performing an eighties hit

Putting it down: Kelly Rowland was impressed with many of the acts on tonight's X Factor live show

Singing her heart out: Sami Brookes sung a rendition of Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You

Made-over: Gary told the hopeful that she looked 'stunning' following her hair and make-up transformation

Singing Beyonce: Craig Colton sang Best Thing I Never Had and got a mixed reaction

Real heartache: Janet Devlin, whose Grandfather passed away this week, sang an Elvis hit

Pretty in lace: The redhead looked glamorous in her matching dress and tights

Singing to win: Frankie Cocozza sang The Scientist by Coldplay but failed to impress all of the judges

Outspoken: Judge Tulisa gave all the contestants good and constructive criticism

Kylie fan: Hopeful Johnny Robinson sang the pop star's hit Can't Get You Out Of My Head

'Aladdin' wannabe: Johnny was dressed in a kimono and wore black eyeliner for his performance

On fire: Marcus Collins sang Rihanna's hit Russian Roulette on the show but failed to show 'enough emotion'

Funky foursome: Rhythmix sang a version of Nelly Furtado's I'm Like A Bird on tonight's show

Breaking the curse: the young girl band are hoping that they will go far in the competition unlike previous female bands

Big and bold: Misha B stole the show when she sang the Charles and Eddie hit Would I Lie To You

Star quality: Gary told the 19-year-old that she was more like a guest star than a contestant on the show

Ladies favourite: Second boy band The Risk sang a Bruno Mars hit and proved to be popular with the ladies

On a high: The boys seemed really pleased with their positive comments from the panel

Radiant in red: Sophie Habibis sang Wherever You Will Go by The Calling

The name on everybody's lips IS Holly! Valance the vixen sizzles in the Cell Block Tango for Broadway week on Strictly

2011-10-16T04:42:00.000+07:00

By ANDREA MAGRATH

Behind bars: Holly Valance transformed into a murderess to perform the Cell Block Tango from the musical Chicago for Broadway week on Strictly

She's the sunny pop star from Down Under, but Holly Valance was transformed into a murderess for Broadway week on Strictly Come Dancing tonight.

With lashings of fake eyelashes and a jet black bob, Holly was a doppelganger for vixen Velma Kelly in the hit musical.

She wore a sheer black body stocking with black sequinned material covering her modesty to dance the tango to Cell Block Tango with partner Artem.

He had it coming: The pop star started the routine in a jail cell before being unlocked by Artem

Catching her heel in her frock didn't slow her at all, but affected Holly's focus on her character, the judges said.

'I would have liked to see a bit more tension, but I liked how you got out of the costume scenario,' Craig told her, awarding her a seven.

Alesha said: 'You were definitely sexy, but I was hoping it would a bit more feisty.'
'Be still my beating heart,' said Len. A great start and great dance.

Bruno told her: 'Don't worry Holly smoke, you got me going. I want to be criminal, everyone will be lining up.'

Murderess: 'I enjoyed killing him,' Holly said of partner Artem

After the tough love Artem gave her during their week of rehearsals, 'I did enjoy killing him,' Holly said afterwards. Alesha gave them a seven, with Len and Bruno both awarding eights.

The judges gave the couple a total score of 30.

But once again, it was Jason Donovan who was the leader on the score board, getting 36 out of 40 for their Tango to I Will Survive from Jason's old day job, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

Clearly at home performing a song he knows so well, Jason danced energetically and mouthed along to all the lyrics.

The couple were awarded nines across the board for their performance which Craig said was 'stupendous!'

Right at home: Jason Donovan was back to his old day job with a routine from Priscilla, Queen of the Desert

Hat trick: Jason received the highest score for the third week running with 36

'An incredible tango with a twist, you keep blowing me away,' Alesha said.
'I'm going to call you the midwife because you keep delivering,' Len exclaimed.
Bruno added: 'You will do more than survive, you will thrive! You were camp as Christmas!'

Another high note of the evening was Alex Jones, who put on a romantic performance with her partner James, dancing the Viennese Waltz to Memories from Cats.
Alesha called Alex 'her most improved dancer.'

The pair received four 'eights' from the judges, giving them a total of 32.
Chelsee Healy and her partner Pasha performed the Cha-cha-cha to Begging You from Jersey Boys.

Craig thought 'it was too disco,' only awarding a six.
The other judges disagreed: 'You come out and you don't mess about, you go for it,' Len said.

'So close to being a great Cha-cha-cha, you just need to tighten up on a few little things but you are a joy to watch,' Alesha said.

Bruno added: 'The Cha-cha-cha is cheeky, playful and rhythmical and you have all of that.'

Chelsee Healy and her partner Pasha performed the Cha-cha-cha to Begging You from Jersey Boys

Tighten up: The judges told the actress there were moves she needed to tighten up but added she was a joy to watch

Awkward: Dan Lobb was told he looked more like 'casual acquaintances with his partner Katya than lovers

Disappointing: The judges only awarded the TV presenter 24 for his Viennese Waltz to Queen's Somebody to Love from We Will Rock You

Upbeat: Anita Dobson danced the jive to You Can't Stop the Beat from Hairspray

Sixties: The actress donned a black bouffant wig and flirty hot pink costume for her energetic routine with partner Robin

Stellar review: Len told the pair, 'Three words: fun, energetic, entertaining'

Dandy: Rory Bremner donned the top hat and tails to dance the quick-step to 'Top Hat, White Tie and Tails from Top Hat

Dramatic: Lulu and Brendan Cole performed the Rumba to All I Ask of You from Phantom of the Opera

Rule breakers: Craig took issue with the couple's illegal lift, but Len rebuked him, saying 'you have to break eggs to make an omelette, and sometimes you have to break rules to make a routine complete'

Be Italian: Craig told Nancy she looked like a 'plodding mule' for her routine to Be Italian from Nine

Lust: But Bruno called her a 'tempestuous temptress'

Mamma mia! Robbie Savage and Ola performed the tango to Gimme, Gimme, Gimme from Mamma Mia and received warm remarks from the panel

Improving: Robbie received 30, as Alesha said he was 'fast becoming one of the strongest contenders in the competition'

Last and not least: The final couple onstage was Harry Judd and his partner Aliona, who did the jive to Grease Lightning from Grease

Jive: The judges asked for a little less 'messing about' but liked the performance

Low score: Audley only received 24 for his routine to Too Darn Hot from Kiss Me Kate

By ELEANOR GOWER

Glamour girl: Jennifer Aniston shines in a glittering floor length black gown as she attended the The 25th American Cinematheque Awards, at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills tonight

She is regularly seen stepping out on the red carpet in a series of trusty black little black dresses.

And Jennifer Aniston was again sticking to her colour of choice as she stepped out at tonight's American Cinemateque Awards which this year honoured Robert Downey Jr.

However, the 42-year-old star added a twist of glamour in the floor length number with a beaded design as she spoke at the awards ceremony for the Hollywood actor.

Tousled glamour: The star wore her hair cascading down her shoulders as she spoke at the ceremony

The star looked stunning in the number, which featured a split in the front, teamed with strappy black sandals.

She left her hair loose around her shoulders as she joined a slew of stars at the awards held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel,

The star was accompanied by her boyfriend Justin Theroux, and the pair happily posed over dinner with man of the hour Downey Jr.

They both looked happy and comfortable as they smiled for the camera, while Downey Jr was positively beaming.

Aniston and Theroux joined a galaxy of stars at the event to honour the Iron Man star, including rarely seen Mel Gibson who was spotted larking about with Downey Jr backstage after he received his gong.

Downey Jr was accompanied by his producer wife Susan Downey who is pregnant - the couple are expecting their first child together early next year.

Special occasion: A smart and cheery Mel Gibson made a rare appearance at a Hollywood event for Downey Jr's special night

And Jennifer's black dress seemed to be the running theme of the evening with Jodie Foster and Sting's wife Trudie Styler also stepping out in the trusty colour.

Trudie wore a fitted floor length number, while Jodie was more conservative in a frilled black blazer, pencil skirt and heels.

Meanwhile Gibson staged a mock ceremony to present the gong back to the amused Downey Jr backstage.

The pair then struck up a number of poses for the photographers, with Gibson looking particularly cheerful given his recent troubles.

John Favreau, who directed Downey Jr in Iron Man also paid tribute to the star on stage, as did actor Jack Black.

Downey Jr is currently filming The Avengers, where he reprises his role as Tony Stark, who becomes iron Man.

Katie Price leaves NOTHING to the imagination in entirely see-through jumpsuit as she enjoys new-found singledom

2011-10-15T22:00:00.000+07:00

By SARAH BULL

Aren't you cold? Katie Price left nothing to the imagination as she stepped out in London last night wearing a see-through black lace jumpsuit

She's back on the market after splitting from Leandro Penna earlier this month.
And it seems Katie Price is determined to make the most of her new-found singledom, enjoying several nights out on the town over the past week.

Last night the 33-year-old model decided to show off her figure in an outfit which left nothing to the imagination - a see-through black lace jumpsuit.

Did you have fun? Katie appeared slightly worse for wear as she left London's Centrepoint, and clung on to her friend's arm for support

Black lace: Katie wore black lacy underwear under the jumpsuit to protect her modesty

Mother-of-three Katie teamed the outfit with black underwear and black sky-high heels as she partied with friends at London's Centrepoint.

Katie looked in high spirits on her evening out, smiling for the cameras as she headed home.

But it seems she may have over-indulged slightly in the alcohol on offer, and was forced to cling to her friend's arm as she made her way down the steps outside the building.

Giggles all round: Katie appeared in high spirits as she headed home from her eventful evening out

Katie has remained resolutely silent about the reasons behind her split from Leandro, only saying things were 'all cool' between her and the Argentinian model.

She said: 'We actually split a long time ago but we're still really good friends. It's all cool. We got on but it didn't work out, it was just one of those things.'

Famous faces: Linford Christie was also spotted at Centrepoint, where it was apparently a celebration for David Haye's birthday

'I have my new reality TV show, I’m going into management and I have just released my own-brand glossy magazine which I am really proud about.

'Critics can knock me all they want, but one thing they cannot accuse me of is being lazy.'

Global icon: David Beckham smiled as he showed of his new Jacob & Co watch in New York earlier this month

David Beckham has scored a very posh new accessory.

The LA Galaxy midfielder is the proud owner of a Jacob & Co Global 3 watch, which cost an eye-watering $11,000.

The star first showed off the new addition to his collection of expensive timepieces in New York earlier this month.

Close up: A better look at David's $11,000 investment

Of course that is just a drop in the ocean for the wealthy footballer, who is worth an estimated $175 million.

The timepiece comes with a host of features the star will find handy.

t displays five different time zones, New York, LA, Tokyo and Paris, as well as the local time.

And no doubt the beach-loving athlete will love the fact it is water resistant at depths of up to 50 metres.

Diamonds are forever: Macho David loved wearing his bling heavy Jacob & Co watch with his glittering earrings

He's at it again: David showing off another fancy timepiece from the company

Perhaps his new watch even offers a hint his proposed move to Paris Saint-Germain is far more likely than a return to Manchester United or Arsenal, as if ends up in French capital he will not even change the time.

It also will appeal to the star, as it rates high on the bling scale.
It has an expensive alligator skin strap, silver plated dial and a 18 carat rose gold bezel.

He will not even have to worry about having to pay to have it fixed if it breaks down, as it comes with a two-year warranty.

She loves them too: Victoria's fancy watch comes in handy when she is counting down the minutes during an LA Galaxy match

He loves to watch: David donned another fancy timepiece when he caught a Los Angeles Lakers game earlier this year with his chum Gordon Ramsay

David and his wife Victoria are huge fans of the exclusive brand, and have been pictured on numerous occasions wearing their watches.

Company founder Jacob Arabo said: 'It's always a pleasure to have David Beckham in our store.

'He has been a huge supporter of the brand since the beginning and he and his wife have become dear friends.'

Smiles all round: Beckham flashed his different watch as he headed out and about in Beverly Hills on his motorbike yesterday

Losing Face: Courtney Stodden receives apology from Facebook after they deleted her profile 'in error'

2011-10-15T16:03:00.000+07:00

By MIKE LARKIN

Back in business: Courtney was getting her usual mix of insults, compliments and moral advice after her page was reinstated

Controversial teen bride Courtney Stodden has received an apology from Facebook after it deleted her page due to 'inappropriate sexual conduct.'

The company said the 17-year-old, who infamously married 51-year-old Green Mile actor Doug Hutchison in May, had her account removed by accident.

Risque: Courtney Stodden has posted a racy photo and tweeted: 'Too sexy for Facebook?' after she was banned from the site for inappropriate sexual conduct

It follows the revelation that she had been denied access to the site after seemingly falling foul to censorship.

Her page has since been restored.
In a statement the company said: 'This page was removed in error and has been restored.

Garnering opinion: The 17-year-old, who married 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison this summer, also linked to a news story about it

'We apologise for any inconvenience caused.'

Courtney's mother Krista Keller said she was relieved the matter had been cleared up.
She told E! she and her daughter were 'happy that it was finally addressed' and hopes 'maybe Facebook can look at the cyber bulling and do something more proactive.'

She added: 'Putting a stop to cyber bullying is something Courtney is very involved in.

'I'm all natural': The Hollywood wannabe has denied claims she has been surgically enhanced, with Doug insisting 'God is her only plastic surgeon'

Krista was fuming when her daughter was temporarily removed from the website.

She was sent messages saying she has been denied access due to 'inappropriate sexual conduct' when she tried to sign into Facebook.

Krista insisted her daughter had been singled out by 'jealous' women, who she claimed reported racy photographs to the site's administrators.

She added that no naked photos were posted - but told E! News that female users are ganging up on Courtney because they are envious of how sexy she is.

Facebook has also pulled down some fan sites dedicated to Stodden.

Speaking out: Courtney's mother Krista Keller, centre, says jealous female Facebook users reported her daughter to the site's administrators

She continued: 'On any Facebook page, people can report it for inappropriate content.

'There is nothing on her page you wouldn't find anywhere on Facebook. She has never done any nudity. Not a breast, not even a butt cheek. It's just her in a bathing suit!'

That must chafe a bit! Lady Gaga struts her stuff in a tight leather playsuit as she films the video for new single Marry The Night

2011-10-15T15:01:00.000+07:00

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Leather Gaga: The singer was snapped filming the video for her new single Marry The Night in a strapless leather play suit in Harlem last night

In her new single she sings about throwing on some leather and going out and cruising the streets of New York.

And that's exactly what Lady Gaga decided to do as she filmed the video for her new song Marry The Night.

However, even though this is a woman who is not one to shy away from adoring herself in latex, we suspect that her choice of dancing attire may leave her feeling a little sore.

Put your paws up: Gaga throws her hands in the air as she struts her stuff

The singer was snapped strutting her stuff on the streets of New York last night in a tight leather playsuit.

The energetic dance routines, reminiscent of Michael Jackson's Thriller routine, could have left the Born This Way star feeling a little bit hot and sticky even with her resistance to chafing material.

Not that she looked as though she'd broken a sweat as she joined her backing dancers in Harlem to shoot scenes for the video.

Killer heels: Gaga, sporting a cut on her knee, manages to keep her balance on her stilettos as she throws her arms out

Working it: She has admitted to not being the greatest dancer but Gaga looked more than comfortable in front of the cameras as she performed her routine

Her hair cropped short and bleached blonde, she teamed the leather playsuit with stiletto heels which she effortlessly danced on in the middle of the road.

Pouting in her blue lipstick, she was seen crouching on the floor and being lifted in the air by one of her male dancers.

Marry The Night is the fifth single from her second album Born This Way and is due for release next month.

You lift me up: Gaga throws her head back as she is hoisted into the air by her backing dancer

Meanwhile, the singer will be celebrating today after she won an injunction at London's High Court to stop animated character Lady Goo Goo from releasing a single.

The character is a baby with a long blonde fringe from the Moshi Monsters online game, which is owned by UK firm Mind Candy.

It released The Moshi Dance on YouTube - which has since been taken down - and its full release has been stopped by Gaga.

I'm here! Gaga makes her grand entrance from her limo

The injunction ruled that Mind Candy could not promote, advertise, sell, distribute or make the Moshi Dance available to the public.

It was also prevented from doing the same with 'any musical work or video which purports to be performed by a character by the name of Lady Goo Goo, or which otherwise uses the name Lady Goo Goo or any variant thereon'.

Mind Candy said in a statement the ruling was 'a huge disappointment' and added that it was 'pretty obvious that kids will be able to tell the difference between the two characters'.

How did you mount that in THOSE? Kim Kardashian rides a camel in six-inch platform stilettos

2011-10-15T14:06:00.000+07:00

By JADE WATKINS

Inappropriate much? Kim Kardashian could not bear to be without her towering Christian Louboutins as she went for a ride on a camel with her mother Kris Jenner in Dubai today

They are her regular wardrobe staple, which help boost her 5'2 frame an extra six or so inches.

But there is a time and a place for sky-high stilettos, and many would argue a desert camel ride would not be one of them.

Kim Kardashian could not bear to be without her towering Christian Louboutins as she boarded the giant mammal in Dubai today.

Are you for real? The reality star looked ridiculous in the inappropriate footwear, which she even wore in the sinking sand to mount the humped animal

The reality star looked ridiculous in the inappropriate footwear, which she even wore in the sinking sand to mount the humped animal.

Kim and her mother Kris Jenner appeared to be trying to recreate the desert scene from Sex And The City 2 as they slipped into floor-length colorful kaftans for their daytime journey.

Kim swathed herself in a maroon silk version complete with intricate beaded collar and gold trim, while Kris opted for the bright orange variety adorned with blue gems.

Distracted: Kris checked messages on her phone during the desert ride

Taking in the sights: Kim and Kris looked around in wonder as they took in the breathtaking sights

The newlywed's garment was said to be a gift from one of her young fans.

The two women put on a glamorous display as they emerged from the five-star Atlantis Hotel and Resort, where both mother and daughter are staying during their trip.

They were escorted to their awaiting camels by two hotel staff holding umbrellas over their heads to shield them from the sun.

Once mounted, they were lead around the sand by a traditionally dressed man.
The pair were also being filmed; most likely for Kim's reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Later in the day, Kim visited the Dubai Mall, where she was set to open the Middle East's first Millions Of Milkshakes store and sign bottles of her perfume at Sephora.

Earlier she tweeted: 'About to head out to the Dubai Mall, who is there?'

Kim has certainly experimented with her fashion whilst being in the United Arab Emirates city.

Yesterday she covered up her infamous shape in an all-black burka, a traditional dress worn by many Muslin women.

Kim and Kris had headed into a traditional dress shop to try on the styles for themselves and both women wasted no time embracing the religious outfits.

Kim covered her body completely, with her face shielded by the niqāb, the pillar-box covering that leaves only a woman’s eyes on show.

Where's Kim? At one point Kim covered her body completely, with her face shielded by the niqāb, the pillar-box covering that leaves only a woman’s eyes on show

Approved: The reality star was rather taken with the new look and left in one of the dresses although she opted just to wear the ḥijāb, the head covering out of the shop

Signature look: The look was in stark contrast to the outfit Kim had arrived in, which consisted of a black skirt nipped in at the waist and a sheer black and white blouse

The reality star has been keeping followers on her Twitter page informed of her activities, posting up pictures of the view from her hotel room and telling them how excited she was to be there.

And, though she has a huge following of her own, she was quick to compliment Dubai's female population.

She wrote: 'Seriously the woman in Dubai are sooo gorgeous!!! I'm sure @RobKardashian is so jealous he didn't come with me! WOW these woman are beautiful!'

Look, here's my bump! Beyonce accentuates her pregnant form in a figure-hugging dress after faux belly rumours

Bump ahead: Beyonce Knowles stepped out in New York today wearing a form fitting dress

While most expectant mothers hide beneath unshapely maternity wear, Beyonce Knowles wants the world to see her growing tummy.

The songbird stepped out in a black curve-hugging dress with a navy stripe that clung to her stomach to show off a blooming bump.

As she ran errands in Manhattan, she didn't exactly dress for the rainy weather, but her bodyguard protected her hair and heels with an umbrella.

Glow girl: The singer looked radiant as she emerged from her hotel

Despite her changing body, the former Destiny's Child star looked effortlessly stunning and looked as though she was striding along the red carpet rather than a murky pavement.

The mother-to-be seems keen to show off her bump after speculation that she was sporting a fake one earlier this week.

What rain? Beyonce ignored the bad weather as she tottered along in heels

She proved her point yesterday during another rainy day in New York, stepping out in the Big Apple wearing a flowing snakeskin blouse which she teamed with black jeans, hat and vertiginous buckled boot heels.

While it may not be advisable for expectant mothers to totter along in tall shoes, the Run The World singer was clearly putting style before comfort.

Knight in shining armour: Bodyguard kept Beyonce dry as she showed off her bump, which was less visible from the front than the side
The public sighting comes just days after the RnB star was at the centre of claims she wore a fake bump for a television appearance.

Her representatives quickly dismissed the reports as 'stupid, ridiculous and false' - but not before footage of her sporting an apparent 'squished' bump on Australian TV became a YouTube hit.

Stylish: Despite the impending birth, Beyonce won't be surrendering her designer wardrobe for tracksuits and maternity gear just yet

Viewers noted how at one point the cameras appeared to show Beyoncé’s bump being squashed as she sits down.

During the interview to promote her new album, 4, she revealed she is due to give birth in February, adding that she feels 'grateful' and 'blessed' to be expecting her first child.

The footage promoted speculation on gossip websites that she is wearing a prosthetic bump.

U.S. blog Media Takeout was the first to highlight the peculiar moment, citing it as 'evidence' she is exaggerating the look of her bump.

Other news outlets also weighed in, with The Washington Post calling it 'weird' while ABC News asks: 'Is Beyoncé's bump as big as she’d have us believe?'

Maternity chic: The expectant mother, seen here in New York, is not letting pregnancy get in the way of her passion for fashion

It even triggered wild 'conspiracy theories' that she was faking her pregnancy while a surrogate mother carries her baby.

However, the claim carries little logic considering she was photographed wearing a bikini on September 6 while holidaying in Croatia and sporting a visible bump.

Kellan Lutz's secret to getting the body of a Greek god... 16 eggs a day (and LOTS of exercise)

2011-10-14T15:54:00.000+07:00

By CHRIS JOHNSON

Braun: Kellan Lutz poses on the cover of November's Men's Fitness magazine

Kellan Lutz managed to pack on 25lbs of lean muscle to play the role of a Greek god in his upcoming movie, Immortals.

The Twilight actor, seen here posing shirtless on the cover of the U.S. Men's Fitness magazine, got up to 220lbs - thanks to a high-protein diet and a rigorous workout regime.

Sharing his fitness tips with the publication, Lutz said he would eat 16 eggs a day in the lead-up to shooting and do insane outdoor exercise, that included throwing huge rocks around and doing countless push-ups.

Working out: Kellan says he prefers outdoor exercise to going to the gym, seen here working up a sweat near Venice Beach in Los Angeles last month

But Kellan, who used to date 90210 star AnnaLynne McCord, insists he is no gym junkie.

In a behind-the-scenes video of his Men's Fitness shoot, the 26-year-old actor says he likes to make up his workouts as he goes along.

'I don't really like the gym. I like to fool my body,' he said, referring to his spontaneous outdoor workout regimes.

'I run around the beach and then there's scaffolding so I can just do different pulls-ups there.'

Packing on muscle: The 26-year-old actor maintained a high-protein diet and rigorous daily exercise bulk up for his upcoming movie Immortals

Speaking to the mag about getting into shape for Immortals, in which he plays Greek god Poseidon alongside co-stars Henry Cavill and Mickey Rourke, he said: 'I ate 16 eggs every morning.

'I got up to 220 pounds of solid muscle. We’d work out every day. Shooting one scene could take all day—and when that’s just driving a Humvee at five miles an hour, we had energy to burn.'

He went on: 'We were doing push-ups on top of the Humvees. We were throwing wheels and rocks. We were timing each other, betting who can do the most push-ups, just to keep our sanity.

His movie Immortals hits theatres in 2D and 3D on November 11.

Covering up this time Pippa? Fergie shows more flesh than Miss Middleton at breast cancer charity event

Stylish: Pippa Middleton attends the Too Many Women dinner wearing a full-length evening gown with floral print

At the last charity event, she sported a plunging red dress - but copped flak when two other stars wore a strikingly similar number.

So perhaps Pippa Middleton was going out of her way to chose an outfit that no one else was likely to be wearing last night.

The Duchess of Cambridge's little sister donned a full-length satin evening gown as she supported the Two Many Women campaign.

Listening intently: Pippa appeared at ease as she mingled with revellers while sipping on a glass of wine at the bash

She showed less flesh than Fergie in the floral outfit but still managed too look stylish with her hair pulled back.

And the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson refused to dress her age in a black gown, showing off her shoulders.

Pippa looked more demure than Fergie

Pippa was joined by her friend Katie Readman at the event, hosted by retailer All Saints at the Petersham Nurseries in Richmond.

The blonde wore a red dress, reminiscent of Pippa's two weeks ago.

Another lady in red last night was actress Sienna Miller, who donned a short dress with feathers attached.

A day of 'gross national happiness' as commoner student, 21, marries Bhutan's 'Dragon King' in ancient Himalayan fortress

2011-10-14T06:28:00.000+07:00

By WIL LONGBOTTOM

'Dragon King': Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck married Jetsun Pema in a colourful ceremony in Bhutan's ancient capital of Punakha

Bhutan's 'Dragon King' has married a student in a vibrant Buddhist ceremony held in a 17th-century Himalayan monastic fortress.

King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck wore a crown adorned with a raven's head and drank from a chalice of ambrosia during the sumptuous ceremony in the ancient capital of Punakha.

The Oxford-educated 31-year-old is revered as the insular country slowly embraces democracy and the marriage was televised live to the population of 700,000.

Ceremony: The elaborate ceremony featured baby elephants and thousands of monks chanting and hitting drums

'Gross National Happiness': The ceremony was televised to the 700,000 people living in the tiny Asian nation

Bhutan, whose government follows 'Gross National Happiness' for its people instead of economic growth, is set for three days of public holiday as citizens celebrate the wedding.

Karma Tshiteem, head of the Gross National Happiness Commission, told the Daily Telegraph: 'You can be sure that our happiness is increasing.'

Fairytale wedding: The ceremony took place in a 17th century Himalayan monastic fortress

Thousands of people dressed in traditional coloured robes stood outside the fortified monastery. Monks chanted and hit drums as white incense drifted in the air.

King Wangchuck's father abdicated in 2006 to introduce parliamentary elections.
The monarchy is seen as helping stabilise a fragile democracy wedged between India and China in a conflict-ridden region.

Married: The 31-year-old said he shared a love of art with his bride, 21

Procession: Monks bang drums as they approach the fort where the marriage took place

He said after the ceremony: 'I am happy. I have been waiting quite some time.
'She is a wonderful human being, intelligent. Her and I shared one big thing in common - love and passion for art.'

Jetsun Pema, 21, the daughter of an airline pilot, wore a crown embroidered with silk and arrived in a procession of singers, relatives and Buddhist monks across an ancient footbridge.

Ceremony: Jetsun Pema, a student, walks towards the Dzong fortress with family and monks behind her

Baby elephants guarded one of the fortress's entrances.

The king and his father entered a sacred chamber holding the embalmed body of the 17th-century founder of Bhutan, where they received holy Buddhist scarves and a chalice of blessed curd.

Popular: The royal couple are given scarves as they walk among locals after their marriage

Posters of the couple adorn almost every building, lamppost and roundabout in the capital, Thimphu, three hours drive away.

The country's airline has put on extra flights to deal with the demand of visitors from abroad.

Making new friends: The king holds a young child as he greets locals with Queen Jetsun in Punakha

Bhutan, known as the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon', has been happy to promote a Shangri-la image with its snow-capped peaks and largely untouched forests.

Tourism was only allowed in the 1970s, and when the first car arrived in the 1950s many people thought it was a fire-eating dragon.

A successful monarchy may be key to bringing stability to a kingdom in the centre of a region wracked by civil war and conflict.

Untouched country: Bhutan only started allowing tourists in the 1970s and has a population of just 700,000

Neighbouring Nepal's monarch was recently abolished, while India absorbed the Himalayan kingdom of Sikkim and China did the same with Tibet.

King Wangchuck said: 'I will follow in my father's footstep. My father set the bar very high.

'He was a wonderful leader. We will try to live up to expectations.'

The new king, a keen basketball player and archer, has dropped the family's reclusive and elitist image.

He lives in a cottage in Thimphu and often invites his subjects for tea.

He has spent months touring Bhutan's remote villages - often walking among villagers holding his bride-to-be by the hand.

What age gap? Julia Roberts defied her age and stole the spotlight from her younger co-star Hayden Panettiere at the Fireflies in the Garden premiere

There is more than 20 years between them, not that you’d know it.

And on the red carpet for the premiere of their film Fireflies In The Garden Hayden Panettiere failed to outshine her veteran co-star Julia Roberts, with her youthful good looks.

While Hayden, 22, looked lovely in a glittering olive dress the 43-year-old Pretty Woman star stole the limelight by defying her 43-years of age.

The 43-year old actress looked stunning in an all-black ensemble as she posed on the red carpet at the Pacific Theater in Los Angeles

Julia looked closer to Hayden’s age as she posed on the red carpet at the premiere at the Pacific Theater at the Grove.

The mother-of-three looks stunning in an all-black outfit wearing a dress with ruffled detail under a satin jacket.

Mature look: While Julia defied her years Hayden looked older than her 22-years in an asymmetrical olive dress with glittering detail

And adding extra oomph to her outfit the actress had donned a glittering statement necklace with silver and black jewels.

While Julia had teased her hair into loose curls, which helped her cut years off her appearance, Hayden had also opted for tighter ringlets which had the opposite effect making her appear more mature.

While Julia has somehow managed to turn back the clocks she and the other stars of the film have been waiting four years for the premiere of the film.

Finally here: Cast members Shannon Lucio and Carrie-Anne Moss have waited like the other stars for four years for the film to premiere

The cast began filming the movie in Texas in early 2007, but the shoot turned into a four-year-ordeal owing to a troubled film festival debut and financial problems.

Initially Dennis Lee, who wrote the screenplay managed to pull together $500,000 from family and friends before Senator Entertainment, an American offshoot of a German film company, agreed to stump up $8million for Lee to make the film.

Finally here: The film took so long to premiere because of financial and legal problems as well as a bad festival debut

Things got even better for Lee when he signed up the all-star cast including Roberts, Panettiere and Ryan Reynolds to star in the film.

However the project was left put on hold for what turned into four years after a serious of problems, including financial issues at Senator, which eventually folded, a disastrous showing at the Berlin Film Festival and.

After launching a campaign, along with the help of Julia as well as family and friends, Lee managed to get around the issues and re-cut the film.

So happy: Julia, pictured smiling with Dermot Mulroney, helped Dennis Lee with his campaign to get the film to the big screen

In character: Julia in the film portraying Lisa Taylor

Speaking to the Los Angeles Times about the wait Julia said: ‘As frustrating and agonizing and confusing as the years have been I feel it has all been worth the effort.’

The film tells the story of the Taylor family who are devastated by an accident that takes place on the day Lisa Taylor, the mother, is due to graduate from college, decades after leaving to raise her children.

Sibling revelry: Derek and Julianne Hough teamed up to perform on Dancing With The Stars last night

Dancing with the Stars professional Derek Hough battled through pain to perform last night after dislocating his shoulder during rehearsals.

The 26-year-old dancer and choreographer is competing with Ricki Lake in the latest series of the hit US dancing competition.

He was rehearsing for the show when he dislocated his shoulder during one session but was later able to perform with his sister Julianne, who used to be a professional alongside him on the show.

A source said to People: 'He popped it back in, but he is still in a lot of pain.'
Julianne admitted that she was 'nervous' about making her return to the show. The siblings performed a jive to the classic, Shake Your Tail Feather.

Still in step: Julianne made a return to the show after two years away

The ballroom dancer left the programme two years ago to pursue a film career but celebrated her leading role in Footloose with a special performance on the show that made her famous.

Speaking ahead of her return, she told People magazine: 'I definitely got a little emotional.

Ouch! Derek still managed to put on a spectacular show despite his injury

'I don't think I've ever been this nervous to do the show. I'm a little rusty.'
She performed one dance with her Footloose co-star Kenny Wormald before taking to the floor with her brother.

Hough said they decided to go all out on their choreography.
'I love dancing with Julianne because we're very similar in our minds, what we want to do and what we think looks good,' Derek explained.

Movers and shakers: Julianne also performed with her Footloose co-star Kenny Wormald

'The producers said, "Don't kill yourselves. Just go out and do a nice little dance," and we're like, "No, no, we're not going to phone it in".'
'Julianne is an absolute superstar,' he added. 'This girl is incredible. I'm so proud of her.'

Hough and Lake made it through to the next round of the competition after topping the leader board.
