Glamour: Alexandra Burke took to the stage in Birmingham last night in a Gladiator-inspired dress


She is well known for her up tempo pop songs and hi energy dance routines.

So it understandable the Alexandra Burke would opt for some onstage outfits that allow for some movement.

But the singer has taken the idea to the next level, taking to the stage in Birmingham last night in a shredded, ticker-tape style dress.

The former X Factor winner is currently on her first UK tour, and has rocked audiences in cities including Glasgow, Bristol, Cardiff and Nottingham.

Last night it was Birmingham's turn for the All Night Long tour and Alexandra appeared to pull out all the stops.



Going all out: The singer is in the middle of her first UK tour


After the show the excited 22-year-old took to Twitter to show her gratitude for the overwhelming response.

'Birmingham! Are u for real? U guys rocked my life !!!!!!!! #Nowords. - Thank u all so much,' she tweeted.

She added: 'I don't want this tour to end. Like seriously. Love my life - I love it more then I have ever done before!'

The white and silver studded gown is designed by Melissa Odabash, who has styled all of the outfits for the tour.

Alexandra later changed into an unusual skimpy leotard with cutaway panels and diamanté detailing to belt out some of her biggest hits including Bad Boys, Broken Heels, Start Without You and the most recent single The Silence.

In addition to the tour, the busy star has campaigning for Save The Children's new project, No Child Born To Die.


Ticker-tape inspired: The Melissa Odabash- designed dress left plenty of room for energetic dance routines


She spoke out recently about her visits to Haiti following last year's devastating earthquake, and her plans to return again next month after her tour is completed.
Speaking at the campaign launch last week, Alexandra told how she held a dying baby in her arms while visiting the devastated country.

‘It was heartbreaking to hold this tiny malnourished baby,’ she said.

‘He was really underweight and the doctors were saying he was going to die without any food.

‘Women were giving birth to babies on the floor, in markets, in homes which were nothing more than a tent or even just a sheet.


Doing good: The singer is also busy campaigning for Save The Children and is planning to return to Haiti next month where she plans to open a school

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Getting fit for the big day? Chelsy Davy is spotted jogging along the Sea Point promenade in Cape Town


It was revealed today that she is expected to return to the UK in time for the Royal Wedding in April.

And it looks like Chelsy Davy is wasting no time ensuring she looks her very best for her reunion with ex-boyfriend Prince Harry.


The 25-year-old was spotted working up a sweat during a beach front run in Cape Town.

Looking toned and trim, the Zimbabwe-born beauty pounded the pavement in a tiny pair of jogging shorts and a white vest.

She listened to music on an iPod Shuffle and, despite looking a little flushed in the cheeks, she still managed to retain an air of glamour with perfectly polished nails and jewellery.

The Mail On Sunday's Katie Nicholl revealed today that friends of Chelsy's are expecting her to attend the April 29 nuptials as Harry's date.

She is currently on a gap year after completing her post-graduate law studies and has spent the last six months travelling around Africa.


Pounding the pavement: The 25-year-old worked up a sweat as it is revealed she is expected to return to the UK in the next few months


‘Chelsy has had a great six months out but she only intended to have a year off from her legal training and then she plans to move back to London, where she has a flat in Belgravia,’ said a chum.

‘She still has a job offer at lawyers Allen & Overy and plans to start there in September.’

Brainy Chelsy was offered a post at the law firm last year after completing her legal practice course, but she put the job on hold to go travelling.

After trekking around Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mauritius, Chelsy hopes to visit Australia next, but after that she will return to the UK to focus on building her career.


Gap year: Chelsy has been travelling around Africa for the past six months


‘If she’s back in the UK the chances are she will be back with Harry,’ added another friend. ‘They are still fond of each other and are always leaving sweet messages for each other on Facebook.’

Meanwhile, a mole reports that Chelsy has been spending most of her time with her friend and former flatmate Alayne Moseley.

‘There’s talk that they are together,’ said the source.

‘But if anything Alayne is a stop-gap. Chelsy’s real love is Harry, who’s desperately missed her while she’s been travelling. We have never ruled out a reconciliation.’



Reunion: She is expecting an invitation to the Royal Wedding in April and could attend as Harry's date

Cheryl Cole and ex-husband Ashley have secret meeting at their former marital home

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWSeBLbWkoUendofvid


[starttext]


By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Secret meeting: According to reports, Ashley Cole has begged ex wife Cheryl, seen here together in October 2009, for a date


It was the celebrity divorce that dominated the headlines last year after allegations of his multiple infidelities.

But Ashley Cole is hoping for a reconciliation with ex-wife Cheryl after the couple met secretly at their former marital home.

According to reports today, the Chelsea star also begged her for a date after getting 'positive signals' from the X Factor judge.


But last night, a friend of the Girls Aloud star told the News of the World she is 'wary' of getting back with the footballer over fears it would damage her career.

The newspaper reported that the ex-partners had met at the mansion in Surrey they shared when they were married after she appeared Piers Morgan's Life Stories in October.

A friend of Ashley's told the paper: 'The key thing that led to contact being restored was the interview. He feared another bucketload of s*** after all the media criticism.

'But Cheryl only spoke of love and tenderness. She couldn't have been nicer.'
After the secret reunion, Ashley is then believed to have bombarded Cheryl with calls and texts asking her out on a date.



Reluctant: Cheryl, pictured here at the National Television Awards last week, wasn't keen to see Ashley after the bash for fear of being photographed with him


The friend added: 'He has been getting some positive signals from Cheryl and has been responding to them.'

And according to sources at Chelsea Football Club, Ashley also asked to see her after last week's National Television Awards - but she refused.

A source at the London club said: 'This is the talk of the training ground. He called her and she told him she was going and he wanted tickets.

'He said they'd be discreet and make sure they weren't pictured together. It was obvious from his reaction she was unsure.'

Last night , her friend said Cheryl was 'wary' of a reconciliation as it would damage her career and possibly anger her boss Simon Cowell and close friend Derek Hough, who was there to pick up the pieces after she and Ashley split.



Tenderness: Cheryl got emotional on Piers Morgan's Life Stories as she spoke about her relationship with Ashley


They said: 'Cheryl's career has gone from strength to strength since she left Ashley. Any proper reconciliation would be career suicide.'

However, a report in the Sunday Mirror said she has decided to keep the surname 'Cole' to help her crack America.

She made the decision when she renewed her passport and changed it from her maiden name of Tweedy.

A source said: 'People knew who she was as Tweedy but she has only become truly famous as Cheryl Cole.



Talk of the training ground: Ashley, seen here in action for Chelsea in the FA Cup clash with Everton yesterday, is said to be the hot gossip at the west London club

SeeYa says goodbye on Inkigayo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArlR6tHohW8endofvid


[starttext]


Much-loved ballad trio SeeYa greeted their fans with a final farewell and formally disbanded after their performance on the January 30th episode of SBS’s “Inkigayo.”

The group first debuted in 2006 and have been loved for their outstanding and impressive vocal talent for the five years they were active. Their hit songs, such as “Woman’s Scent,” “Love’s Greeting,” and “Shall We Get Married“, managed to gather a fanbase larger than what most idols are capable of.


The group has certainly experienced a fair share of highs and lows, and the members will be going their separate paths on an amicable note, especially after Nam Gyuri rejoined the group for this final album promotion, having left earlier under acrimonious circumstances.

SeeYa’s original trio stated, “We pledged to not look sad in front of our fans, to not cry, to not look weak, and to confidently do our best until the very end before we went up on stage. It’s so sad thinking that this is SeeYa’s final goodbye stage, but we only want to show fans our smiling side. I honestly thought I’d cry, but I tried to remember the happy moments I had with SeeYa in order to avoid crying.”

Core Contents Media commented, “This March, their contracts will expire. There’s a slim chance that the girls will be returning after they finish their activities for their goodbye album, depending on how they feel. The issue won’t be dragged on for long, and a decision on what will happen will be made soon.”

SBS’s representative also raised the anticipation for their final stage by commenting, “We’ve prepared a stage that is worthy enough for all three members to cherish.”

Not such a Tourist anymore: Johnny Depp splashes out on £8.5million Venice Palazzo

endofvid

[starttext]

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Work in progress: Johnny Depp is believed to have bought the Palazzo Donà Sangiantoffetti in Venice for £8.58million


Johnny Depp has bought a £8.58million palazzo in Venice after falling in love with the city last year.

The actor, 47, spent several months in the Italian tourist hotspot while filming The Tourist with co-star Angelina Jolie last year.

And it appears he was so taken with the City of Bridges, he won a bidding war for the 17th century Palazzo Dona Sangiantoffetti.


Stunning location: The Palazzo overlooks the Grand Canal and is situated in the Santa Croce area of Venice


According to local newspaper La Nuova Venezia, the Hollywood star outbid an Arab prince for the empty building for 10million euros.

The Palazzo is one of the only available buildings overlooking the Grand Canal and is situated in the Santa Croce area of Venice, not far from the Santa Maria Mater Domini Church.

While it needs some restoring, it includes high decorated ceilings, a roof platform and ornate columns.


Low-key: The entrance to the palazzo suggests it's in need of some restoration work


The palazzo would be a holiday home for Depp, his French singer/actress partner Vanessa Paradis and their two children Lily-Rose, 11, and Jack, eight.

During his promotional tour for The Tourist, Depp spoke highly of his love for the City Of Bridges.

He admitted he loved walking through the quiet alleys late at night when the paparazzi who photographed him and Jolie filming during the day had gone home.


Property portfolio: Johnny Depp and partner Vanessa Paradis already own several homes across the world


He enthused: 'My experience of Venice really happened between 10pm and 2am when the streets closed and I was able to walk around and experience the poetry of Venice, the ghosts of Venice, all those wonderful dark alleys.

'For an actor being able to film within the confines of that magical city certainly helps... The city's magic shone through completely.'

The Venice home is just the latest addition to Depp's property portfolio.

Although based at a 50 acre farmhouse in France, the Depp family also own homes in Hawaii, West Hollywood, Somerset and a 45 acre island in the Bahamas.


Historical: The 17th century building includes artwork on the ceilings

'She's too young for me': Justin Bieber snubs Hailee Steinfield... the 16-year-old likes older women

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAcKerb6dDkendofvid

By SARAH FITZMAURICE

She's younger than you? Justin Bieber has said Hialee Steinfield is too young for him to date


He’s been kissed by Katie Perry and Rihanna so it’s hardly surprising that Justin Bieber wants a girlfriend of a certain age.

The pint-sized popstar has said he wouldn’t date Oscar nominee Hailee Steinfield because at 14-years-old she is just too young for him.

Justin was speaking to Jay Leno on The Tonight Show when he ruled out the possibility of a relationship with the True Grit star saying she was too young and added: ‘I'll be 17 in less than a month.’


Towering beauty: Hailee looked stunning as she took to the stage at the Golden Globes. She towered above Justin as they presented an award


The 16-year-old presented an award with the actress at The Golden Globes ceremony last week and as Hailee took to the stage towering above Justin in a gorgeous satin dress it was hard to believe she was younger than him.

Speaking about Hailee, Justin told Jay: ‘She’s really nice and really talented.’
He added: ‘I think she’s cute’

But when The U.S. chat show host pressed the youngster he ruled anything more than friendship out on account of their age gap.

Justin tweeted about Hailee last week after finding out she had been nominated for an Academy Award.


Snubbed on air: Justin told Jay Leno on The Tonight Show that he wouldn't date Hailee because she was too young


Baby pics: Justin and Jay looked through a number of the pint sized pop singer's baby photos


He posted: ‘Met at the Globes and she is super talented. CONGRATS to Hailee Steinfeld for being 14 and getting nominated for an OSCAR for TRUE GRIT! Now Hailee get a twitter.’

The Canadian singer said he wasn’t flirting with the young actress but was in fact just being friendly.

Justin, who was promoting his new movie Never Say Never, shared some pictures of himself as a toddler with Leno.


Close couple: Justin and Jay shared a hug during the interview


The cute singer didn’t seem to mind showing off his old snaps which included pictures of him as a little baby.

Justin’s new 3D film tells the story of a small-town boy who sees his dreams come true and hits cinemas in the U.S. in February.

Cher Lloyd plays it coy as she's reunited with boyfriend Karim Roundi at Heathrow

endofvid

[starttext]

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Playing it cool: Cher Lloyd is reunited with boyfriend Karim Roundi at Heathrow Airport on Saturday after three weeks in the U.S.


They've spent half of their six week relationship apart.

But X Factor reject Cher Lloyd was reunited with new boyfriend Karim Roundi at Heathrow Airport today after a few weeks Stateside

After three weeks recording her debut album in Miami and LA, the 17-year-old looked thrilled to be back with her 'Essex socialite' boyfriend Roundi, 20.


Back on track: Cher's burgeoning relationship has moved past cheating allegations


But it appears the couple were rather reluctant to cosy up for their first public appearance together and coyly held hands as they were surrounded by paparazzi in the arrivals lounge.

Despite the 10 hour long haul flight, Cher was in good spirits as she smiled for photographers at Heathrow.

Before boarding her flight at LAX, she joked on her Twitter: 'Just got stopped at security cos my pants were too baggy ha!'

But there was no mention of her new boyfriend who picked her up from the airport.
Worcestershire teen Lloyd was introduced to Roundi by Richardson backstage at The X Factor final on December 12.


On top of the world: Cher's album has been given an August 2011 release date - which will come out two months before X Factor winner Matt Cardle's


However, just weeks into their romance, waitress Kate Cross, 21, alleged she slept with Roundi just five days after he started dating Cher.

Fellow X Factor contestant Paije Richardson - who introduced the young lovebirds - insisted Roundi's brief encounter with Cross took place before he started dating Cher


Chart dreams: The cover of Cher's debut album, due for release in August, has been posted on amazon.co.uk


Although coming in fourth place on The X Factor and narrowly escaping being voted off after voting figures revealed her sporadic popularity, Lloyd has signed a record deal with Syco.

Her debut album will be released on Simon Cowell's record label on August 22, 2011 - according to Amazon.co.uk, which is taking pre-orders on the as-yet-untitled disc.

The album will go on sale two months before actual X Factor winner Matt Cradle's debut is released on October 24.

The teenager has spent the past three weeks working on her album with a selection of top rappers.

The 51-gig tour will kicks off February 19 at Birmingham's LG Arena, before ending in Cardiff's CIA on April 10.

Paris Hilton strutted her stuff on the catwalk in Brazil


She's the heiress to a multi-million dollar fortune and with her line of fragrances, make-up and clothing she has cultivated a Barbie-inspired brand based on herself.

But as her empire is expanding so, it appears, is her waistline and the 29-year-old showed off a remarkably fuller figure in Brazil yesterday.

Paris, who was appearing in a San Paulo fashion show, was paraded pretty dresses down the runway flaunting her newly-found curves.

The usually super-slim socialite appears to have been putting on pounds quite rapidly over the past six months.

Her appearance was in stark contrast to the Paris that soaked up the sun in a pink stripey two-piece in St Tropez, back in July.

Pairs enjoyed an extended jaunt around European hotspots on her yacht over the summer and played up to the media frenzy that followed, her flaunting her trim and slim frame in a number of stylish swimwear pieces.


Model moves: Paris strode down the catwalk in outfits by fashion brand Triton


Yesterday while she was still happy to pose for the cameras she was looking at her largest and sported a much fuller figure.

As she modeled the chic designs, which included a black dress with pleated skirt and bright trim, she wore her hair in a French plat on the side of her head revealing a much plumper face than usual.

Paris closed the show as the lead model and wore a stunning strapless metallic dress teemed with huge platform heels.


Leader of the pack: Paris lead the final parade as the fashion show closed


She tweeted: ‘Just finished walking in the @TritonLovers Runway Fashion Show. The show went amazing! The clothes were so beautiful! Loves it! Brazil rocks’

Later that evening party girl Paris took to the town in a multi-coloured strapless dress with boyfriend Cy Waits.

Paris is not the only famous American face to take to the catwalk in Brazil, Ashton Kutcher is also returning to his modeling roots modeling designs for Colcci.


Travel buddies: Paris an boyfriend Cy jetted into Brazil on the same flight as Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore


The 32-year-old actor, who arrived with wife Demi Moore on the same plane as Paris and Cy, was eager to try out the loco lingo and posted a tweet in Portuguese.

Ashton posted: ‘Estou pronto para o Brasil. Brazil esta pronto para mim?’ which roughly translates to I’m ready for Brazil is Brazil ready for me?

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian are in their element on shopping spree... but Scott and Mason certainly are not

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Shopping spree: Kourtney Kardashian was spotted in Beverly Hills yesterday indulging in a spot of retail therapy with son Mason and boyfriend Scott


For the Kardashian sisters, a spot of retail therapy is a pass time guaranteed to put a big smile on their faces.

But the same cannot be said for Kourtney's boyfriend Scott Disick and their son Mason.

The father and son braved the shops with fashion-conscious Kourtney and Kim in Beverly Hills yesterday.


Are you done yet? But while the reality star appeared to be enjoying herself, Scott and Mason appeared a little bored


And judging by their stern looks, the experience was apparently not one they were relishing repeating any time soon.

With a furrowed brow, Scott was pictured relieving Kourtney of her carrying duties of a serious-looking Mason as they left the Barneys New York store.

This then freed up the 31-year-old reality star to clutch her bags of purchases, along with her sister Kim.

Their younger sibling Kendall Jenner, 15, was also spotted out on the shopping trip.


Having a blast: Kourtney was joined by her sister Kim, with the fashion-conscious sisters clearly enjoying their afternoon perusing


Can I come to? Their younger sibling Kendall Jenner also came along


All three sisters dressed casually in jeans, an apparent favourite choice for 30-year-old Kim at the moment who has recently managed to slim down and toned her legs.

Scott, meanwhile, was dressed in a colourful short and T-shirts combo while Mason was clad in a red striped top and blue denims.

Kourtney and Kim were seen on the Piers Morgan Tonight show on Thursday, where they plugged their new reality show.

They also discussed, among many things, their figures, with Kim saying she and her sisters promoted a healthy body image to their fans.

'We're not your typical stick-thin skinny girls you see in the magazines,' she told Morgan.

'I should have said no, but I trusted the doctor': Sophie Monk reveals her regret over cosmetic surgery

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otzCqZaVqOwendofvid


[starttext]

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Morphed: Sophie Monk's looks have changed considerably in the last three years, seen here pictured on the left, last December and right, in 2007


Australian actress Sophie Monk has admitted she regrets succumbing to cosmetic surgery.

The 31-year-old, who moved from LA several years ago in search of a career in Hollywood, has for the first time admitted to having surgery 'everywhere'.

She has had fillers in her lips and regular Botox injections around her forehead and eyes and is also said to have undergone a breast enlargement.

The blonde, who has appeared in the comedies Click and Date Movie, says it all started when she had collagen injected into her lips following a botched removal of a cyst.


In love: Sophie just recently got engaged to American businessman Jimmy Esebag



'Half of my lip was removed with the cyst, and I was advised to get filler in my top lip to help balance it out,' she told Australia's Who magazine this week.

'I should have said no to the filler in the first place but I trusted the doctor.'

It is unclear if her ex boyfriend, plastic surgeon Dr John Diaz, performed the procedure.

'I’m so sick of people saying that just because of my lips, I’ve has surgery everywhere,' she continued.

Monk also admitted she has battled with unhealthy eating.
'The stress of this business tends to come out through my body. Either I eat too much or I eat nothing. I need to be more responsible for my body,' she said.

Monk announced her engagement to American businessman Jimmy Esebag, who is 20 years her senior, earlier this week.

She told Who she has never been happier: 'I know people are going to make remarks about us, but it doesn’t bother me.

'I love everything about him. He’s given me a new perspective on life.'
Esebag is chairman of the board of America's Licensing Holding Group, which owns the rights to the Playboy brand.

Monk began dating Esebag soon after her dramatic split from Diaz, whom she dated for over a year after first meeting in 2009.

She was left broken-hearted last year when their relationship came to an end after she discovered the surgeon in bed with another woman.

Sophie rose to fame in Australia after winning the country's version of American Idol.

She then forged a career as an actress, moving to Los Angeles and becoming a close friend of Nicole Richie.

She's no Mean Girl: Amanda Seyfried donates to charity with a box of old clothes

Generous: Amanda Seyfried drops off some supplies for the Goodwill of Southern California charity in Los Angeles yesterday


She may have rose to fame as a Mean Girl.

But Amanda Seyfried showed a rather more kind-spirited side yesterday as she dropped off a donation of clothes for a Los Angeles-based charity.

Either that, or she was clearing some draw space for her new beau Ryan Phillippe.

Amanda looked rather fetching in a pair of short shorts - a garment she was clearly fond of and had decided to keep - as she hauled a heavy box of goodies to a Goodwill of Southern California centre.

The 25-year-old star teamed her casual look with a baggy tie-dye top, which perhaps she should have considered adding to the pile, and a pair of flip flops.

The make-up free actress hid behind a pair of sunglasses during her outing as she made the quick drop while running errands.


Legs on show: The Mean Girls actress was dressed in incredibly short shorts and a baggy top as for her trip


The Goodwill of Southern California is a charity set up in 1916 to help people with disabilities get into work by providing education and training.

It operates 65 retail stores and 42 donation centres, with donations providing an important stream of revenue to fund the service.

Amanda has been quietly dating Phillippe since they first met at a Halloween party at Kate Hudson's house last year.

A source recently told Hollywood Life: 'Amanda’s smitten. Ryan is very charming and he brings out a very giddy side in her. '


Job done: Amanda leaves the centre after dropping off her donation for the charity which helps people with disabilities get work
Amanda previously dated British actor Dominic Cooper, 32.


They had an on-again off-again relationship after meeting on the set of the 2008 film, Mamma Mia.

Ryan dated Australian actress Abbie Cornish after his marriage to Reese Witherspoon ended in 2006.

Reese, 34, who is the mother of his two children Ava, 11, and Deacon, seven, is now engaged to Hollywood talent agent Jim Toth.

Put him down, Brooke Shields! Actress flirts and flashes her legs at much younger TV host

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

What a flirt: Brooke Shields can't hide her attraction to guest co-host Mike Catherwood on Live With Regis & Kelly


Brooke Shields put on an outrageously flirty display as she made an appearance on live U.S. television.

The 45-year-old actress threw caution to the wind and poured her figure into a striking red mini-dress, which might have been better suited to a woman half her age.

She then proceeded to put on a touchy-feely display with presenter Mike Catherwood - 14 years her junior - who had stepped in to co-host Live With Regis & Kelly yesterday.


Hands on approach: The actress dived in for a hug


Brooke flashed her long legs and a big smile at the 31-year-old radio personality as he stood in for the show's regular presenter Regis Philbin.

After joking about how amazing Regis looked, as Mike was standing in for the aging host who is retiring, she then repeatedly reached out and touched his arm during their interview.

Finally she told him : 'You're very pretty!'

Mike, who is the host of radio show Loveline on KROQ, appeared to be loving the attention and laughed at the crushing actress.


Showing off: The actress wore a very short bright red mini dress and matching platform heels


But Brooke, who is married to television writer Chris Henchy, had a challenger for Catherwood's affections from host Kelly Ripa, who told him: 'You're perfect. Absolute perfection.'

Kelly, 40, admitted that Mike looked identical to her husband Mark Consuelos, and said of when she saw him backstage: 'I was in heaven back there!'

Mike joined in the praise, two, calling them 'two of the most beautiful women out there.'

Mike has nothing to worry about from the two wannabe cougars however - Kelly has been married for 14 years and Brooke for 10.
