Kristen Stewart wears trainers to Snow White and The Huntsman London premiere
Tuesday 15th of May 2012
She was in town last night to dazzle fans and press alike the premiere of her new film Snow White and The Huntsman – but a smiling Kristen Stewart showed up to her big night in a pair of Nike trainers instead of sexy heels! Impressive.
The 22-year-old is always bunging on a pair of comfy shoes when she can (a girl after my own heart), but what was even better was that the pretty actress was caught swapping her trainers for heels behind a bush!
Still, she looked amazing though, obviously as she wore a long black lace dress from Marchesa’s Fall 2012 collection.
Also at the premiere in London’s Leicester Square was Kristen’s co-star Charlize Theron who also wore a sweeping black gown from Christian Dior Couture and the gorgeous Chris Hemsworth who matched perfectly in a black shirt and grey suit. Both girls graciously stopped to greet fans and sign autographs before heading inside the cinema.
Later the Hollywood ladies partied the night away at The Royal Courts Of Justice and Soho’s club Quo Vadis, where they were joined by Robert Pattinson. In fact, the loved up K-Pattz didn’t get back to their room at Claridge’s until 5am. Hardcore!

Robert De Niro joins Brian May, Roger Taylor at the star-studded We Will Rock You ten-year anniversary performance
Tuesday 15th of May 2012
It was all glamour and glitz down at the Dominion Theatre last night for We Will Rock You’s ten-year anniversary performance. In fact, Robert De Niro showed up to surprise fans and red-carpet attendees too – adding an even bigger touch of class to the whole affair!
The Hollywood actor is actually a producer on the show, so it was even more special that he was able to make the big night. Bob (can we call him Bob?) joined Queen’s Brian May and Roger Taylor too, along with Ben Elton who wrote the script.
And that wasn’t all! Legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury also made an appearance at the event – in the form of a hologram, much like Tupac did at Coachella in April.
Other celebrity attendees were Chas Hodges (of Chas ‘n’ Dave), Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, Martin Kemp, Genesis’ Mike Rutherford, Samantha Fox and Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt. Even a couple of TOWIE members (Kara and Billi) showed up.
Sounds just fabulous – and we’re glad Freddie managed to make a special comeback for the big day.

McFly's Tom Fletcher married his high-school sweetheart Giovanna Falcone in London on Saturday, with all three of his McFly bandmates, Danny Jones, Dougie Poynter and Harry Judd, present as his best ‘men’.
The service was held at One Marylebone, a 19th Century Grade 1 listed building which was originally built by Sir John Soane as a church.
Giovanna arrived at the venue in a white taxi, while Tom arrived at the venue in advance to greet guests with his best men.
Other celebrity guests at the service included Giovanna’s younger brother Mario who arrived with his girlfriend and The Only Way Is Essex co-star Lucy Mecklenburgh, Fearne Cotton and boyfriend Jesse Wood, Busted singer Matt Willis and wife Emma and Inbetweeners actor Joe Thomas.
On Friday, Tom sweetly tweeted: “ The next time I see @giovannafalcone she will be walking down the aisle.”
While Gi' showed she was relaxed about the occasion by writing: “Okay... My dress is hung up nicely, as are the bridesmaid dresses... Everything else is laid out in preparation. I think I'm ready!!! Xxxx”
The beautiful couple, who have known each other since they were aged just 13, become engaged last April after Tom romantically proposed in the hall where they first met at Sylvia Young's Theatre School.
Congratulations you lovely two!

Mollie King on David Gandy split: ‘No one could have hurt like I did’
Monday 14th of May 2012
The Saturdays star Mollie King, 24, has spoken out about her break up from Dolce and Gabbana model David Gandy, saying she felt “no one could possibly have ever felt as hurt as I did” when the pair went their separate ways earlier this year. Aww!
Mollie and David were together for nine months before they broke up in February 2012, a decision that has been suggested came from David (is he mad? Mollie's gorgeous).
However, this weekend in The Sun's Fabulous magazine, Mollie spoke out about her heartbreak - and here's what she had to say...
"When any relationship comes to an end – especially one where you’ve been very much in love, as I was – it’s hard.
“Now, a few months down the line, I know that’s not the case and of course other people go through as much hurt."
Obviously hanging out with a certain Prince Harry must be helping the pretty blonde get over her ex-fella. She's been linked to the Royal in a romantic way too, but has denied that they are anything more than just friends (is she mad Harry is hot!)
She went on, "Luckily I have an amazing family around me, and my mum told me it was normal to feel like that. She said I only needed to listen to Adele’s 21 to realise that! Adele – there’s one person who definitely felt as upset as I was.”
Last month, David also spoke about the relationship to the UK edition of Men's Health, admitting it was his obsession with “perfection” that caused the split.
He explained, “My perfectionism can make it difficult. I know my ex-girlfriend struggled.
“Things have to be perfect – everything in the house, every car I buy. That’s incredibly hard to live with if you don’t understand it.”
Well, she's a beautiful girl so we have np doubt the boys will be fighting to snap her up before we know it. Prince Harry, take note.

Are Beyonce and Jay-Z planning a move to London?
Monday 14th of May 2012
Last week we told you that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are upping sticks from their plush Hollywood pad and are heading to London to spend the summer in Richmond. Now we hear fellow celebrities Jay-Z and Beyonce are planning the exact same move - and they too have found a mansion in the City.
It's thought the pair came to the decision after they realised they would be over here for most of the summer anyway. Jay-Z will be embarking on the European leg of his Watch The Throne tour with Kanye West and he's down to perform at the Capital Summer Time Ball in June too, while Beyonce will be launching her exclusive new perfume in the capital.
The couple will be bringing their new baby daughter, Blue Ivy, with them of course and they're said to have already put down a rental deposit on the house that will make them neighbours to the likes of Simon Cowell and Richard Branson. Bey's mates Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin will also just be down the road - lovely!
An in-the-know source told The Sun: "Both Jay Z and Beyonce are going to be spending a lot of time in London over the next few months.
"They wanted to have somewhere more homely now they are parents."
With all these big names moving over to our side of the pond, we're just waiting to hear who'll be next on the showbiz list. Our money's on Kanye West and his missus Kim Kardashian. They seem ever-so loved up right now and we can only imagine she'll want to be here with him when he heads over for the tour.

The Dictator premiere comes to London
Friday 11th of May 2012
You have to love Sacha Baron-Cohen. The Ali G funnyman certainly doesn't do things by halves - a skill he demonstrated once again last night, when he showed up at London's Royal Festival Hall for the premiere of his own movie, The Dictator, in full costume.
The actor, dressed as the Dictator Admiral General Aladeen, entered the red carpet in a bright orange Lamborghini - which had to be towed by a truck. And as crowds gathered around the Southbank to marvel at the spectacle, Sacha brought out the big guns - well, a small gold prop gun which he jokingly pointed at red-carpet guest Mohammed Al Fayed - before calling in a group of scantily-clad ladies in nothing but outer military costumes.
Anna Faris, who also stars in the film was present to meet fans and get her picture taken. As were other guests for the screening including TOWIE's Jessica Wright, Strictly Come Dancing's Kristina Rihanoff and boyfriend Joe Calzaghe, Vanessa Feltz, Russell Kane and Louie Spence.
The Dictator is out in cinemas today.

AMAZING! Prince Charles does the weather forecast!
Friday 11th of May 2012
This is one of the best things that has happened on TV in a long time - here's HRH Prince Charles, actually demonstrating his way through a British weather update on the BBC. Isn't it brilliant?
The Prince of Wales took to the telly at BBC Scotland while on tour of the network's Pacific Quay headquarters - while regular weathergirl Sally Magnusson stepped back and watched on smiling.
We think Charles secretly enjoyed doing it - it makes a nice change from all his 'next in line to the throne' duties, eh?
What should we expect next, we wonder? Prince Harry mentoring on The Voice? Kate and Wills producing a comedy act for Children In Need?
The truth is, this is why we should love the Royals in 2012. Times have changed and they're changing with us.
