Who needs clothes with a body like this? Heidi Klum poses topless for daring new Project Runway ad

Project Runway may be all about fashion, but the show's host Heidi Klum decided to forgo clothes all together in a promotional image for the new series.

The 39-year-old model and mother of four posed with a pair of scissors and a pink tie ribbon around her neck, with the words 'Make It Work' - a catchphrase of the show's co-host Tim Gunn - written on her arm.

The ninth season of the reality show, which pits aspiring fashion designers against one another, is set to debut in the U.S. on July 28.

'This is definitely sexier than past campaigns we've done,' said German-born Klum.

This week it emerged that Kim Kardashian is rumoured to be a guest judge on the upcoming season.

The 30-year-old is expected to fly out to New York this week to film her section on the Lifetime show.

A source said to Life & Style: "She's going to be a guest judge on the show and is really excited."

However not everyone on set is a Kardashian fan - Tim Gunn hit out at the reality star on The Joy Behar Show last year.

He said: '[Kim's] pretty, but she's a poseur. I find that when she's static and still, she has an attractiveness. I find that when she's moving, it all goes away from me.'

Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne make their red carpet debut at Elton John's White Tie and Tiara Ball

Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne tonight made their red carpet at Sir Elton John's White Tie and Tiara Ball.

The pair, who have been dating since last December, looked smart as they headed to the annual fundraising event held at Sir Elton and partner David Furnish's Windsor Home.

While Elizabeth stuck to her usual formula in a floor-sweeping animal-print gown, she admitted to her Twitter followers earlier in the day that she had been struggling to decide what to wear.

She wrote: 'Off to Elton & David's White Tie & Tiara Aids fundraiser. Can't decide which dress......'

Meanwhile, cricket legend Shane looked sharp in a black tuxedo which highlighted his recent weight loss.

The sportsman is believed to have lost around 22lbs over the last few months, largely due to his girlfriend's influence.

In fact, Shane has now completely changed the way he thinks about food, as he showed on his Twitter page when he asked his followers for advice on what to eat.

He tweeted: 'Feel like a hot pie with copious amounts of sauce with crinkle cut chips!! What the best pie?'

But Shane then added just minutes later: 'NO Shane!! 78kg is target currently 82.5. Settle on a protein shake with an apple and banana - sob.'

Elizabeth and Shane looked happier than ever as they attended the ball, keeping their arms around each other and smiling for photographers.

And, in a recent interview, Shane said he was looking forward to spending more time with his gorgeous girlfriend.

He said: 'She's a lovely lady. We get on really well and I'm spending a lot of time in England this summer, working for Sky.

'We'll wait and see what happens between Liz and I - but at the moment things are great.'

Earlier in the day, Shane was photographed arriving at Elizabeth's London home with a huge grin on his face and carrying a bag of golf clubs.

Elizabeth, 46, announced in December that she had split from husband Arun Nayar, after pictures emerged of her kissing cricketer Shane Warne in a hotel in London.

Following the pictures' publication, both Hurley and Warne hastily issued statements revealing that their respective marriages had been over for some time.

Since then, the new couple have been making headlines for their on/off romance, rendezvous in Australia and India and tabloid rumours of his alleged infidelity.

Elizabeth married Indian textile heir Nayar at Sudely Castle, near Winchcombe, Gloucestershire, in March 2007 - and had a traditional Hindu wedding at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India.

The ceremonies were attended by numerous celebrities, including Sir Elton John, who gave the bride away.

Announcing her separation from Arun, Liz tweeted: 'Not a great day. For the record, my husband Arun & I separated a few months ago. Our close family & friends were aware of this.'

She added: 'Painful, sad days. Arun & I separated for private reasons but FTR he has been a great father to our son Damian & will always be in his life.'

Hours later, Shane, 41, took to his own blog to confirm that his tumultuous marriage to wife Simone was also over.

In a statement he said: 'Sadly and unfortunately, Simone and I split up a while ago, our close friends and family were informed at that time.

'It is a private matter so we did not make it public. We remain friends and will continue to be good parents.'

A notorious philanderer, Shane split from Simone, the mother of his children Brooke, 13, Jackson, 11 and Summer, 8, after a string of affairs, including a notorious sex text scandal in 2000 which saw him stripped of his Australian vice-captaincy.

Russell Brand can be seen holding the hand of a pretty blonde crew member on set in Miami

He's known for his tactile manner but Russell Brand will raise more than a few eyebrows with these shots of him holding a pretty girl's hand.

The reformed lothario, 36 , is on set in Miami where he's filming new movie Rock of Ages, and the fair haired maiden is clearly a crew member.

Russell is given to such displays of warm affectionate towards people that such tender gestures largely go unnoticed.

But the fact that the pair of them were holding in hands today in a manner normally reserved for romantic couples is striking.

It comes hot on the heels of news that Brand's wife of eight months, pop sensation Katy Perry, is extending her tour well into November.

A source told the Mail: 'Katy has only four days off until the end of September, when she’s in Brazil.’

‘She hopes Russell will join her but isn’t sure whether he will be allowed entry because of his criminal record. She is taking a few days off for their first anniversary in October which they plan to celebrate in the UK.’

The pair are even have even put their L.A home in trendy Los Feliz on the market, with friends reporting it is empty most of the time.

When Brand delivered his best man's speech at rock legend Noel Gallagher's wedding at the weekend in England, Perry, 26 , was unable to be by his side.

Brand is said to have brought the house down by affectionately lampooning the former Oasis great, and telling stories about his new wife, Sara McDonald.

But there was no chance to relive fond memories of his marriage to Perry on a tiger reserve in India last October.

And with the comedian's commitments on the film - which is being adapted from the Broadway hit and stars Tom Cruise and Catherine Zeta Jones - destined to keep him in Miami for the foreseeable, it could be hard for the newlyweds to spend any quality time together.

But reports of trouble in paradise are unfounded, and it's likely that Brand is just being his usual touchy feely self.

Perry's tour takes her around the US and the UK over the forthcoming months, and Brand is so keen to see her despite their clashing schedules that he even flies with their pet cats.

She told the Daily Star: 'I miss my kitties. One time I asked Russell to bring the cats with him so we could all hang out. Putting a cat on a plane is strange, but I always make sure it’s in first class.'

Michelle posted a picture of her new pet to her Twitter page and said: ‘The best birthday present ever!!!!!! Little Pip! @MaxTheWanted xxx’

The actress, who has been dating the singer for six months, chose not to wear her engagement ring on her birthday night out in London earlier this week, but couldn’t keep her eyes or her hands off her boyband hunk.

And with their successful careers, the actress has revealed the couple have no plans to wed this year.

Explaining she said: ‘We’ve got so much going on with our careers and I’ve got my hands full with my cute seven-week-old Chihuahua. ‘

Michelle, who used to date Hollyoaks star Anthony Quinlan for two years from 2006 to 2008, also used her magazine column to reveal that her future husband isn’t domesticated but said: ‘I’m confident that will change soon.’

TOWIE's Chloe Sims wears wellington boots and knee socks... for a trip to the shops

With her skull crystal-encrusted wellington boots and pink knee socks, The Only Way Is Essex star Chloe Sims looked ready for Glastonbury today.

In fact, instead of braving the rain and mud at the annual music festival, glamour model Chloe was just heading to the shops in Essex.

The 29-year-old star teamed her unusual footwear with a pair of tight black leggings and black T-shirt embellished with a heart bearing the word 'Forever'.

And it certainly seemed a successful retail therapy trip, as Chloe later emerged from the shops laden with shopping bags.

After her day out, Chloe tweeted followers: 'Shopping all day, Got some really nice summer bits today just need the sun to shine now, why all this rain - rubbish!!

She later added: 'Wore my sunglasses shopping today, no sun in sight thou lol just wasn't rocking!'

Chloe has never made a secret of her love of plastic surgery, and revealed on the last series of The Only Way Is Essex that she is considering having her breasts made even bigger.

But having a larger cleavage isn't the only thing Chloe wants to go under the surgeon's knife for.

She recently revealed: 'I'm the oldest member of the TOWIE cast - apart from Nanny Pat, of course! I'm almost 30 now, so I think if I want to have a bit of Botox then I will, and if I want to have some liposuction done in a year's time then that's fine, too.

'I'm going to carry on having work done until I'm completely happy with my body because I think you should love the way you look.'

Jennifer Aniston does a Princess Diana as she shows off her legs in sheer dress

It hit 26C in New York yesterday and Jennifer Aniston was clearly feeling the heat.

The 42-year-old actress attempted to keep cool in a white skirt, but appeared to be following in the footsteps of Princess Diana as the sun shone through the skirt and turned it virtually entirely sheer.

A picture of Diana taken in 1980 when she was a kindergarten teacher showed her skirt turning see-through in the bright sunshine.

And the same thing happened to an apparently unaware Aniston as she strolled through the streets of Manhattan.

Jennifer teamed the skirt with a grey vest top, pink sandals and a pair of sunglasses, as well as a jumper in case it turned cold.

But Jennifer needn't have worried about her fashion faux pas, as all she displayed was her gym-honed body.

The actress is famous for working incredibly hard to maintain her incredible figure, and credits running every day to keeping her in shape.

And the results were certainly clear to see as Jennifer enjoyed the hot weather in New York.

Meanwhile, it has just been announced that former Friends star Jennifer will be honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

However, according to the Huffington Post, it was actually Jennifer's movie career, which has included films such as The Good Girl and The Break-Up, that earned her the star, not her TV role as Rachel Green in Friends.

Jennifer can next be seen as 'sexually aggressive dentist' Dr Julia Harris in the upcoming comedy Horrible Bosses, alongside Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey and Colin Farrell.

Other stars who will be given their own star on the walk of fame this year will include Kate Winslet, Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Lopez.

Did Elisabetta Canalis' marriage plans scare off Hollywood's most eligible bachelor George Clooney?

It looked like she was going to succeed where so many others had failed.

But just weeks after Elisabetta Canalis hinted that she could be walking down the aisle with committed playboy George Clooney, their relationship has ended.

Friends claimed last night that Clooney feared the Italian model and TV presenter was trying to tie him down after two years together.

Earlier this month, the 32-year-old suggested marriage could be on the cards as she addressed Clooney’s reputation as an eternal bachelor, saying: ‘I could never be with someone who every time he opens his mouth says he doesn’t want a child with me or to marry me.

‘My boyfriend has not given an interview on his private life since 1999 – everything that you read is just a rehash of stuff that has been written in the past.’

In an interview with Italian magazine Chi that appears to have tempted fate, Miss Canalis continued: ‘My second job at the moment seems to be maid of honour. For the time being that’s how it is, but I’m not putting any time limits.

‘Who knows what will happen? I am a firm believer in marriage, in the future I will be married, but for the time being I am happy as I am. I don’t need anything to confirm how happy I am.’

Clooney, however, has insisted that he would not walk down the aisle again following the end of his four-year marriage to actress Talia Balsam in 1993.

The actor, who turned 50 last month, said: ‘I tried marriage and it didn’t work.

‘I have had long relationships with women and they get bored with me working all the time.

‘My fear is that I would make a lousy husband and I don’t want to put myself, or anyone else, through the pain of finding out. If I was my girlfriend, I wouldn’t put up with me for very long.’

A source in Los Angeles said: ‘Elisabetta is a traditional girl and wanted the fairytale.

‘But George has never made a secret of his feelings and he wanted things to continue as they were.’

Clooney and Miss Canalis made their romance official in September 2009 after stepping out together at the Venice Film Festival.

The E.R. star's ex-girlfriends include British model and radio personality Lisa Snowdon and cocktail waitress Sarah Larson.

He is currently working on his new drama, Gravity, with Sandra Bullock.

The Saturdays' Mollie King reveals she'd only ever kissed three men before getting together with David Gandy

She might be dating one of Britian's most eligible bachelors - but The Saturdays' star Mollie King has revealed she didn't have much practice with men before getting together with David Gandy.

The 24-year-old says she's only ever kissed three other boys before landing the Dolce And Gabbana model.

The star gushed: 'He makes me laugh. And he’s really grounded. I like the fact that when we’re together we never really talk about work.'

She added: 'I don’t want someone who’s obsessed with this world. I also love kissing. I feel like it’s really intimate and very special. I’ve only kissed four boys in my life.'
   
Mollie told this week's More! magazine: 'He has a coffee-table book coming out of pictures from his D&G campaigns and I asked him if it would be really sad if I had a copy too.

'He was like, "Yes!"'

She added: 'People keep saying to me, "Oh, well done Moll," like I’ve achieved something. But if the rest of the girls are there, they say, "He’s done well, actually." I’m like, "Yeah! You go girls!"'

Mollie’s bandmate Frankie Sandford meanwhile is dating Man City footballer Wayne Bridge but she doesn’t think he’s the stereotypical cheating footballer.

Frankie said: 'You can’t ever say for sure that someone would never do that, but Wayne’s different.

'We don’t hang out with other players, and I’m not really interested in being a WAG. We’ve both had past relationships that were in the public eye.

'This is more private, and so much nicer. Things are going really well. I’m so happy.'

Despite splitting with JLS singer Marvin in November last year before getting back together earlier this year, other Sats singer Rochelle Wiseman meanwhile says the pair are happier than ever.

She revealed: 'We’re really good. I think in every long-term relationship you go through things that test you, and sometimes you need that to realise what you’ve got.

'And that’s what happened with us when we had our break. We were so busy at the time, we didn’t think we’d be able to see each other. We’re solid now, and that’s all that matters.

'We’re happier and stronger than we ever were.'

Rochelle added: 'We’ve got rules. Like, if we’re at the dinner table we don’t use our phones. You’re paying all this money for a fancy meal, and then you spend the whole time on your Blackberry. It’s nice, because we actually talk to each other now.'

Kym Marsh hits out over criticism that she didn't breastfeed baby Polly

She was left 'fuming' last week after Twitter users turned on her for not breast-feeding her new baby daughter Polly - and now Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has hit out, saying her critics 'know nothing' of her situation.

Some of the 'fans' accused the former Hear'say singer of not feeding Polly herself to protect her boob job - but Kym insists it was because she wasn't making enough milk.

Kym, 35, says of the abuse she received: 'How dare they go on to a site and call me those names and judge me when they know nothing about the situation?

'I’m not going to have small-minded cowards that hide behind a computer question my dedication to my child. It’s the most disgusting thing I’ve read.'

Kym, who gave birth to Polly five weeks prematurely in March two years after having a stillborn son, also told this week's New! magazine of her scare after being diagnosed with pre-cancerous cells in her cervix.

She said: 'While I was waiting for the results of the biopsy, I kept thinking "Are they going to say I’ve got cancer?"

'Then I thought, ‘What is happening to me? Who is punishing me? It’s not enough that I’ve just lost my child, but now I’ve got to go through this?”'


Kym, who places Michelle Connor in the soap, also tells this week's New! magazine of her heartbreak at losing her baby Archie after giving birth to him at 21 weeks.

She said: 'It’s the most soul-destroying thing. It is devastating. It’s torture. He was still alive and kicking. There was nothing wrong with him.

'It was my body that had let him down. In some ways, you feel like you’re letting them down and you take a lot of blame on.'

However, she seemed more chipper last night when she wrote on her Twitter last night after a few days' absence.

She said: 'Hi all. Sorry not been on! Miss Polly is keeping me very busy. How's you all? X'

Kym who is engaged to Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas, already has children David, 15, and Emily, 13, from a former relationship.

The actress also spoke about her decision to release her forthcoming tell-all autobiography.

She explained: 'I was nervous with some of the subject matter, particularly Archie. Going over that was traumatic, but in some ways it was a good thing. It was almost like therapy.'

Cameron Diaz, in an itty bitty mini-dress, greets ex Justin Timberlake with a kiss on the red carpet

For the past week Cameron Diaz - and her legs - have been shipped around Europe and Russia promoting her new movie, Bad Teacher.

But the 38-year-old actress was finally united with her ex-boyfriend and co-star Justin Timberlake as the pair attended the New York premiere.

The couple dated for three years before splitting five years ago - and clearly the film's promoters were holding Timberlake back for the U.S. unveiling.

And of course, the one-time couple did not disappoint, duly sharing a kiss on the red carpet - in view of the army of flashbulbs.

Diaz, who is dating baseball player A-Rod, put her famous legs on show in an impossibly short Chanel knit dress, complete with a see-through top section which revealed a black bra underneath.

Meanwhile, 30-year-old Timberlake - who is single following his split from Jessica Biel - opted for a dapper black suit.

Cameron plays a flesh-flashing, booze-guzzling, pot-smoking, foul-mouthed teacher in the comedy, which was released in the UK last week and will hit U.S. cinemas on Friday.

Her character, seventh grade teacher Elizabeth Halsey, tries to get out of the classroom for good by wooing a rich substitute teacher, played by her ex Timberlake.

Cameron was today on a promotional blitz in New York, stepping out in no less than four different outfits in total.

This morning she told breakfast show Good Morning America that working with her ex-boyfriend Timberlake on Bad Teacher was easy because they 'know their boundaries'.

She said Timberlake was: 'A blessing, a privilege that wasn't lost on either of us. He's so funny and talented,' she gushed.

When asked if the sex scenes were awkward she added: 'It was easier because the boundaries were clear. Like if it's somebody you don't know you are kind of going 'mmm maybe' but you know, 'no', in this instance we're like 'we already did that',' she giggled.

The actress also admitted that she was nicknamed 'the intestinator' by staff on the set because she was always eating.

'I decided my character was a consumer, she's always taking taking taking so I decided that in every scene I would be eating, drinking or chewing on something,' said the There's Something About Mary star.

'So the whole film I was eating, all the worst foods too - corn dogs and fried chicken it was really just an excuse to eat all the bad foods.

'Donuts and breakfast sandwiches. The prop guys called me the intestinator,' she laughed.

Wearing a super-short mini skirt Diaz noted that she usually leads a healthy lifestyle to stay slim.

'Because I love to do active things in my lifestyle, if I don't take care of my body, if I'm not strong then I can't bring those things into my life and those are the things that truly make me happy and my happiness is what really makes me who I am.

'So I'm constantly trying to stay strong so that I can do anything I want at any time.'

Cher Lloyd shows off blue bra in 'Swiss cheese' style top before her new single gets premiere on Radio 1

She's had her own unique sense of style since she emerged on X Factor last year - and Cher Lloyd shows no sign of toning down her fashion choices any time soon.

The 17-year-old, who's preparing to release her debut solo single Swagger Jagger, arrived at the BBC Radio 1 studios in London today wearing a white holey top that showed off a bright blue bra underneath.

The clothes mad singer had teamed the 'Swiss cheese' style top with pale grey skinny trousers, black jewelled stiletto boots and a pink cardigan.

The star also stopped to sign autographs for fans who'd waited outside the Radio 1 studios before she went in to be interviewed by DJ Scott Mills - and for the premiere of her debut solo single.

Cher also chatted to Scott about her music, her fans - and her 'haters.'

She also dismissed rumours about having recorded a track with her former X Factor mentor Cheryl Cole, saying she has had no contact with her since the show ended.

When asked about negative press and public opinion towards her she replied: 'I can see why people don't like me.'

And on being labelled a brat - the name given to all her fans on Twitter - she confessed: 'I haven't grown up yet and probably never will.'

Her debut single Swagger Jagger meanwhile is sure to provoke Marmite-like reactions from listeners.

Cher has deliberated referred to the controversy surrounding her in the lyrics of the song too.

The include: 'You can't stop clickin 'bout me. Writin' 'bout me, tweeting 'bout me.

'Swagger jagger you should get some of your own. Count that money, get your game on.'

The track will hit the shops on 31 July.

The Malvern, Worcestershire youngster is clearly thrilled to bits to be finally releasing new material.

She wrote on her Twitter account this evening: 'I've had such an crackin day! thanks to everyone at radio 1 and 1xtra! big up to my team ! swagggerrrr jagggerrrrrr!!!!!!'

Cher has previously said of the single: 'Swagger Jagger was one of the first tracks we recorded and I loved it straight away and knew it had to be my first single! I hope you all like it.'

However, UK rapper Example, who is currently at No. 1 in the UK singles charts, is not a fan.

He mocked Lloyd after an unfinished version of the song was leaked online last week, tweeting: 'The biggest crime since she got a record deal.'

Cher's debut album meanwhile, which she's been working on with producers including Max Martin, Red One and TMS, is out in November.

Cheryl Cole was given X Factor USA job to 'pacify' Simon Cowell, says Sharon Osbourne

Former X Factor star Sharon Osbourne has claimed that Cheryl Cole was only offered the job on the American version of the TV show to 'pacify' Simon Cowell who fought for her.

The outspoken reality star also said Cheryl would not have been sacked from the show because of her Geordie accent.

Speaking in an online interview, Sharon said: 'That little guy from Fox, Mike Darnell, went to England so many times to see her. He'd been over to England so many bloody times watching X Factor so he knew what he was getting.

'Maybe they were pacifying Simon by letting him have Cheryl.' Meanwhile, Sharon also revealed she believed Dannii Minogue did not quit the UK show but was axed.

'I don't think Dannii was pushed,' Sharon cackled. 'I think she was f*****g thrown.

'I didn't enjoy working with her but to hand it to her she ended up being really good on the show, she did do good and held her own and you've got to hand it to her.

'I don't care about what she wrote about me in her book. When people say things about you, if you don't respect that person or like that person, what does it matter to you.

'People can only hurt you if you really like that person and they don't like you, then it's hurtful.'

Sharon also revealed how her husband Ozzy has been 'sex-texting' her after learning how to use a mobile phone.

Sharon, 58, who is now a judge on America's Got Talent, was shocked to receive a 'filthy' message from her 62-year-old rocker husband while he was touring in Europe last week.

She said: I got a text I got a text from Ozzy and I'm like, 'Jesus, somebody's stolen his phone'.

'Because I thought somebody found his phone and they were texting me dirty messages.

'And Silvana my assistant goes, 'Oh my God, Ozzy's just sent you this really dirty text'. And I'm like, 'Well it's not him, somebody must have stolen his phone, he can't text'.

Sharon's remarks come just a day after Cheryl Cole finally broke her silence following her X Factor USA firing last month.

The singer posted a blog on her official website telling her fans she was 'absolutely fine' and saying she had had 'the weirdest past few weeks'.

'I have had the time that I have not had in so long to just chill with my loved ones and do the normal things that I like to do. See my friends and family and be with my doggys :D.' she wrote.

'It feels long overdue and sooooo good, even my feet are happy to not have to wear a pair of high heels hehe.'

And despite reports over the weekend that the 27-year-old planned to take a break from the limelight Cheryl assured her fans she would soon be back.

'I have the BEST, most unbelievable people out there, who I feel so lucky to call my support system. You never fail to amaze me,' she added. 'I have been reading your letters and opening my prezzies ( I feel very spoilt ) and hearing all of your kind, special and inspiring things you want to say to me.

You are my little soldiers and you mean the world to me.Remember what I tell you, stay strong, keep calm and carry on ;) I'll speak to you all soon when I have some new news, until then I salute you :)'

Amazonian Transformers star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley reveals her endless legs in sheer slashed to the waist dress

Before embarking on an acting career she earned her living as a model.

And model turned actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, 24, isn't afraid to show off the poise that made her a household name.

The Transformers: Dark Of The Moon star unveiled her never-ending legs as she promoted the new film at the Rio De Janeiro press conference.

Dressed in a sheer maxi skirt slashed to the waist and black bodysuit, teamed with towering heels, the Amazonian blonde bombshell gave onlookers a birds eye view of her stunning figure.

But while she certainly seemed confident as she posed for pictures in Rio against a stunning beachside backdrop, she revealed that to some people good looks can be deceiving.

She said: 'People always tell me, "Gosh, you're so nice!'" said the 24-year-old British model turned actress. 'Like they expect me to be a huge b****!'

Even former Transformers star Megan Fox has no hard feelings against the British beauty, as Huntington-Whiteley told the July/August issue of  U.S. magazine Women's Health there is no rivalry between the two actresses.

Huntington-Whiteley joined co-star Josh Duhamel and director Michael Bay at the Brazilian press conference for the third instalment in the popular film franchise.

After beginning her career at 16, the Victoria's Secret model is no stranger to hard work but said she was shocked at how difficult it was on the set of the blockbuster even after her co-star warned her.

'Shia LaBeouf made it clear this wasn't just about becoming a movie star, The shooting schedule was going to be gruelling. You’re in the sun all day long, dirty and smelly. It was like boot camp,' she told the magazine.

Growing up with a fitness instructor for a mother, it's no surprise that the 5'9" actress is in amazing shape.

'As children we were never allowed to sit around watching TV or playing computer games,' explained Huntington-Whiteley, who grew up on a farm in rural Devon.

Thanks to her active upbringing, the model can indulge in her favourite activity - eating.

'I just don't stop doing it,' she said of her veracious appetite during the interview with the Maxim magazine, which this year voted her number one on their top hot 100 list.

'I love eating really, really bad things, like roast dinners and chocolate bread and butter pudding.'

And the star said since moving from the UK to the States she is craving it more than ever.

She told the magazine: 'It's my soul, England. I miss the people, the culture, the food.'

Transformers director, Bay revealed this week the real reason why Megan Fox was fired, leaving the role open for Huntington-Whiteley.

He told GQ magazine: 'You know the Hitler thing. Steven (Spielberg) said, fire her right now.'

Spielberg is executive producer of the film which stars Shia LaBeouf.

Fox had appeared in the first two Transformers films and the roles helped her be named one of the sexiest women in the world.

She had been cast in the third film but shortly before production began she gave an interview to the British magazine Wonderland.#

In it she said Bay wanted to be like Hitler on his sets.

Kirk Norcross and Lauren Pope get his'n'hers nose jobs before 'engagement'

Last week, they were spotted looking for rings in London's Hatton Garden - but it seems that TOWIE's Kirk Norcross and Lauren Pope have plumped for something even more permanent to mark what is rumoured to be their imminent engagement.

The reality TV stars have gone under the knife at the same time for matching nose jobs - and were seen looking bruised and sore leaving the London hospital where they had it done at the weekend.

The sweethearts, who are already proud parents to a bulldog puppy, clearly want things to be perfect in every way before they announce their betrothal - even down to their facial features.

Glamour model-turned-DJ Lauren, 27, was looking less than glamorous as she left the London clinic with her face bruised and swollen.

She was wearing a dress by AX Paris with a pair of short Ugg boots and a leather jacket as she left the medical centre.

She was followed by club manager Kirk, 23, who like his girlfriend, had  black eyes, splints, casts, plasters and heavy nasal padding.

They were also both clutching bags of prescription painkillers to combat sore schnozzes.

Lauren had hinted that she was up to something on her Twitter page at the end of last week.

She wrote: 'Been a long old day and still got a photoshoot to do, excited to crawl in bed ready for a big day tomorrow. Eeeeek scary...will fill you in asap xx.'

The couple had an overnight stay at the private Highgate Hospital to recover from the operation before being discharged on Saturday.

Since then they have been keeping themselves hidden away inside until the bruising goes down

Lauren wrote on her Twitter yesterday: 'Moornin all! So another day indoors for me n Kirk...on the agenda today is baking cakes, will tweet some pics when there done!'

She added: 'Yep we're ok, just a bit bruised and bored already! Lol. Its only a week recovery so ill be back in action by fri x'

Lauren also revealed that the operation had not been a mere bit of bone shaving either.

She wrote, rather gruesomely: 'only slight black eyes tho, the surgeon must of been very gentle with us cos we both had em broken! xx'

However, the burgeoning hair extensions entrepreneur insisted: 'I just had a bump removed that i didnt like..nowt major! xxx'

Kirk apparently had his nose reset after having had it broken in a fight.

He doesn't sound like he's being a model patient either, writing on his Twitter account last night: 'Chilling out eating junk food and watching DVDs I can see myself getting a bit fat soon!

'Can't wait to get this cast off my face x'

Considering they still have to fork out for engagement rings, their his and hers nosejobs weren't exactly cheap - unless they persuaded the clinic into a 'buy one, get one free' bargain.

According to the hospital's website, the rhinoplasty operations by Make Yourself Amazing cosmetic surgery cost £3,750 each.

Princess Beatrice shows off her glamorous frame, left, the result of a strict fitness regime

Growing up in the spotlight is never easy.

But these days Princess Beatrice cuts a much more confident figure.

The 22-year-old student showed off the full extent of her stunning weight loss this weekend as she holidayed with her long-term boyfriend Dave Clark on a £400,000-a-week super-yacht in the South of France.

As she sunned herself off the coast of Antibes, Beatrice’s black strapless swim suit displayed her slender frame to perfection.

And while the frills across her chest and hips highlighted the curves inherited from her mother the Duchess of York, the Queen’s granddaughter showed that she has kept up the regime developed with her personal fitness instructor in the lead-up to last year’s London Marathon.
 
Her toned appearance on Sunday was a far cry from pictures of the Princess in a tight blue bikini in the Caribbean in 2008, which spurred her shedding her puppy fat.

Beatrice told the Daily Mail at the time: ‘It was such an unflattering bikini and I've got one that's so much nicer, so I could have kicked myself for wearing it.

'I thought people were a bit mean, although I know it comes with the territory. The trouble is, I don't have much confidence so it can be quite upsetting. I could probably do with losing the odd pound though, so perhaps it is the kick I need.'

But this weekend the royal’s self-assurance was palpable as she changed into a bikini and let down her auburn locks.

Watched by admiring friends on the 195ft German-built yacht Oasis where she and 29-year-old Mr Clark are thought to have stayed as guests, Beatrice leapt into the air on the end of a trapeze before plunging into the Mediterranean.

An equally svelte Mr Clark, a millionaire’s son who works for Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson, executed an impressive back-flip from the boat’s second deck.

The six-berth yacht comes with a crew of 15 and a gym that transforms into a private nightclub. According to online advertisements, it can be chartered for between £285,000 and £418,000 a week.

Beatrice, who has faced a battle with her weight similar to that of her mother, has previously put her transformation down to trainer Nadya Fairweather, whose help she enlisted in the lead-up to the London Marathon.

She is also understood to have been following a diet that focuses on eating fresh fruit and drinking plenty of water.

Beatrice and her boyfriend have been dating for five years since meeting at a birthday party for Sean Brosnan, youngest son of James Bond actor Pierce, in 2006.

The fifth in line to the throne has just finished a three-year course in history and history of ideas at Goldsmiths College in South London.

Rather than becoming a full-time royal, she is expected to get a job once she has graduated, possibly in the field of art, fashion or charity work.

Harry Potter's Bonnie Wright is unrecognisable as she poses on sexy magazine cover

She shot to fame playing little Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter movies.

But Bonnie Wright has shown once and for all that she is all grown-up, after posing on the cover of Haute Muse magazine.

The 20-year-old actress is virtually unrecognisable as she dons dark eyeshadow and plum-coloured lipstick, which beautifully complements her red hair, for the cover.

The cover is the latest move by Bonnie to distance herself from the schoolgirl character of Ginny after she finishes promoting the final movie in the franchise, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part II.

Next up for Bonnie is an independent film called The Philosophers, which will see the young actress travel to Indonesia for the shoot.

She said recently: 'I’m off in Indonesia to film the movie.

'It’s set in an international school in Jakarta, and it’s about this philosophy class.

'The film takes this amazing turn where it becomes a psychological thriller.

'So, the character I’m playing is outgoing, and she’s quite fashion-forward and quite cool in the classroom, but she’s very outspoken, so I’m very excited about that because Ginny was always quiet.'

Bonnie, who is engaged to Twilight star Jamie Campbell-Bower, said recently that she won't be looking to star in a franchise after the end of the Harry Potter movies.

She said: 'I’ve always admired actresses like Cate Blanchett and Nicole Kidman - especially for her work in Moulin Rouge and The Hours - but I’ve never really fixated on anyone and thought, “I want to do exactly what they’ve done.”

'I really just want to do my own thing.'

Before that, Ginny will have to say goodbye to Harry Potter in the final film, which will see her and Harry marry and have three children - two sons named James and Albus and a daughter called Lily.

And, in a recent interview, Bonnie discussed what it was like to meet her 'future children'.

'The three kids who played the children were just… they just epitomised all of us, when we were that age, so it was lovely to look back,' she said.

'In the auditioning process Dan and I sat down with different children and talked to them, because obviously the dynamic is incredibly important… to try and portray the idea that they are this family unit, that they’ve spent every living moment together, since they were babies in their hands to how they are now.

'It was challenging to get that warmth with someone you’ve barely met and some children don’t want to get close to someone they don’t know.

'But they understood it was incredibly important to make the scene work, so they were very giving to the situation.'

Malin Akerman shows off her long tanned pins in denim shorts

The 80s rock star movie of the decade was moments away from being all wrapped-up yesterday, and one star made sure the camera stopped rolling on a high note.

Dressed in a tiny pair of denim shorts, Malin Akerman, looked nothing short of sensational as she shot the final scenes for the up and coming, Rock of Ages.

Paired with a loose, grey vest-top and slouchy cowboy boots, Malin, 33, made sure the male members of the cast and crew had a very happy last day on set.

The Couples Retreat actress looked equally delighted to be filming her final scenes too, as not all of the blonde beauty's outfits were as aesthetically appealing.

Making her way across the set to prepare for her next scene, Malik clearly knew her next costume change would turn heads for less desirable reasons.

And she wasn't wrong as, a little while later, she emerged back on set in a red and black striped mini-skirt and clashing red, leopard print jacket, topped off with a wild display of permed, frazzled hair.

Fortunately, the Swedish-Canadian looked to be having the time of her life playing Constance Stack, a journalist who wins the affections of Tom Cruise's character, rock star Stacee Jaxx.

And judging from Malin's tiny, leg-revealing costume changes, there's no mistaking her character's weapon of choice for luring in her men.

The actress was clearly seeing the funny side of her quirky wardrobe yesterday as she shared a joke with some of the film assistants on her way across the set.

Malin is just one of a glittering line-up of stars in the rock and hair metal movie, which has been adapted from the hit Broadway musical.

As well as Tom Cruise, she is joined by big names which include Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Dancing with the Star's pro, Julianne Hough.

Later that evening, Malin joined her fellow cast members, who included Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, for their wrap party at Larios on the Beach, in Miami.

Cat Deeley turned heads in a gorgeous red maxi dress when she popped out for groceries in Beverly Hills

Cat Deeley cut a beautifully crimson shape when she popped out to stock up on groceries yesterday.

The British TV presenter turned a string of heads in her stunning red maxi-dress, which she teamed perfectly with a pair of tan coloured, heeled sandals and a cute gold pendent.

With her trademark long golden locks tumbling around her face, Cat, 34, could not avoid drawing in stares from fellow shoppers as she made her way out of the popular grocery store, Bristol Farms, in Beverly Hills.

The chain of Bristol Farms stores are a firm favourite with the Hollywood elite, so Cat will no doubt have made the most of their selection of deluxe sushi, fine wines and cheeses.

The full length, cotton dress was the perfect wardrobe choice for the balmy Los Angeles climate yesterday, and it would seem Cat and her friends had the perfect afternoon and evening planned.

Armed with bags packed with of delicious gourmet treats, the Birmingham-born Brit and her friends were headed home to bask by the pool, before a fun-packed night out watching U2 play live at the Anaheim Angels stadium in LA.

Unable to contain her excitement yesterday, she tweeted: 'Poolside... Then U2!!!!! Life is good!'

The TV presenter has been working very hard recently filming the new series of the hit show, So You Think You Can Dance, so it was high time she took time out for herself.

Cat clearly knows what colours work for her too, as she opted for a sparkly cocktail dress in an identical shade of red for the show last weekend.

Posing for photos with the show's judging panel, which included Louise Redknapp, Cat looked simply sensational in yet another stunning red number.

Leggy ladies: The Saturdays set the tone for their tour in skimpy shorts as they perform at Alton Towers concert

After announcing plans for their first arena tour, the pressure is on for The Saturdays to come up with some sexy stage outfits.

And last night the girls set the tone for their shows by donning tiny shorts and bright colourful costumes as they performed at the the Alton Towers Live concert yesterday.

All the girls showed off their toned physiques in the skimpy outfits as they treated fans to a selection of their hits.

While Una Healy went for a tight pink mini-skirt, Rochelle Wiseman also opted for a skirt with an orange floaty number.

Meanwhile, Frankie Sandford, Mollie King and Vanessa White all went for little hotpants to display their enviable figures.

After announcing their first arena tour earlier this month, The Saturdays said they were more than a little excited about performing to such large crowds.

Mollie explained: 'It's our first ever arena tour so it's really exciting for us and its going to be in December which we're especially excited about because everyone going to be in the party mood with Christmas.'

And Una added that fans can expect a lot more of the colour-blocking the girls have been experimenting with on the tour.

She explained to FemaleFirst website: 'We mix it up a lot. Colour has always been a big part of it, bold, block colours. For one video one of us might be wearing red and then green you know, we don't stick to anything or any particular colour, we like to mix it around.

'We work very closely with our stylist and we try on loads of different outfits. He knows what works best for us, but we have a huge say as well, we're always very much a big part of that. Fashion is a huge thing for us.'

The girls were just one of the acts to take to the stage at the Alton Towers concert.

They were joined by stars including JLS, meaning that Rochelle had the opportunity to spend time with her boyband boyfriend Marvin Humes.

Following a brief split last year, Rochelle and Marvin are now stronger than ever and even sparked rumours they were engaged when Rochelle was spotted wearing a jewel on her ring finger.

But Marvin's JLS bandmate Oritse Williams said the pair aren't quite ready for that step yet.

He explained: 'It's an eternity ring that's she's been wearing, kind of like a promise ring for Marvin. It's one step down from an engagement and kind of like a test before the real deal goes ahead. Marvin and Rochelle are really happy together. They're great right now.'

Other stars to perform at the event included McFly and Eliza Doolittle, who showed off her enviable legs in a flirty white skirt and gingham bustier.

Talking recently about the concert, Dominique Sidley, event director, said: 'The Alton Towers Resort is a magnificent venue for a concert of this scale and we are delighted to be welcoming some of the biggest and best artists from the pop industry.

'With the famous Towers as the backdrop for the event and our world beating rides and attractions to enjoy, Alton Towers Live really is set to be a highlight of the summer!'

Geri Halliwell struggles to hide her ample assets as she publicly strips off on a yacht in France

No one has ever been able to accuse Geri Halliwell of being the shy and retiring type.

Something which she proved to the world yesterday when she decided to strip off on a yacht in France.

While most people would discreetly retire to the lower deck and change their clothes away from prying eyes, the former Spice Girl decided to almost bare all in full public view.

Geri, 38, was snapped changing out of her blue bikini, one from her swimwear range for Next, on the back of a private yacht off the coast of the South of France.

With one hand clutching her breasts, she whipped the top off in one quick swoop, flashing a nipple in the process.

And she didn't seem to care about any of the crew watching as she then slipped into a animal print dress.

The singer had just come back from a water-skiing session and was changing out of her wet bikini before making a trip into the town of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.

She also appears to be following in the footsteps of her former Spice Girls bandmate Victoria Beckham after figuring out that the best way to advertise a clothing range is to wear it yourself.

She has been showcasing her incredible bikini body while on holiday in the south of France by wearing her own designs.

Geri looked amazingly toned in a pale yellow polka dot two-piece, which is still on sale for £40, as she basked in the sun on a yacht in the waters off the coast.

Geri previously said she was thrilled with her swimwear range, as each design suits every woman.

She said: 'It's for real women of all shapes and sizes. Everything is mix and match, so you can choose the exact shapes and styles that suit you.

'This is a collection that makes you look good and feel fabulous.'

The singer was also seen snapping pictures of her daughter Bluebell and boyfriend Henry Beckwith splashing around in the sea.

Later in the day, Geri decided to show off her jet skiing skills as she took to the water with Henry.

But the mother-of-one hasn't just been frolicking with her beau on the sunshine break, and has been spending the majority of her time with five-year-old Bluebell.

Yesterday, Geri, who accentuated her figure in a leopard-print bikini, spent some quality mother/daughter time with the youngster.

At one point she appeared to be engaged in deep conversation with Bluebell while, later in the day, they both slipped into life vests as Geri decided to let Henry pull her along on his jet ski.

Bluebell was born in 2006, father by Sacha Gervasi, a 40-year-old British-born screenwriter who lives in Hollywood.

And it seems Geri is something of a fan of all things animal-print, as she was later seen donning another wild outfit as she perused the goods in a local shop, settling particularly on a leopard-print kaftan.

In the years since her birth Geri has maintained a healthy figure thanks to Bluebell.

She once said: 'In the past, I always had my hang-ups, believing I wasn’t pretty enough, or a good enough singer, or thin enough.

'But now I’m much more accepting of myself. A lot of my body issues have naturally settled down,' the singer said previously.

'I have a history of eating disorders but, as a mother, you think of being an example to your child. I’m so much more balanced than I was.'

Geri and Henry have been away for around two weeks now, they were last pictured play fighting aboard the boat with Henry trying to throw her into the water.

But although he even picked her up but she refused to let go.

The former Spice Girl was so determined not to be thrown in that at one point she nearly pulled Henry's shirt off.

The couple started dating in March 2009, just days after Geri ended her brief engagement to Italian yacht tycoon Fabrizio Politi.

Geri has described Henry as an 'Alpha male' personality and claims this is the reason why the pair have stayed together for so long.

She has said his strong personality means he won't let her push him around and said they have a lot in common and both enjoy being fun, active and playful.

Steven Spielberg 'demanded Megan Fox be fired from Transformers after Hitler comment'

Steven Spielberg demanded Megan Fox be fired from the latest Transformers film after she insulted its director, it has been revealed.

The Hollywood legend was outraged after the screen beauty compared Michael Bay to Hitler during a press interview.

The 25-year-old actress was quickly dumped from the film and replaced by British model Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley.

Fox had tried to claim she left the third in the series of the films to pursue other acting opportunities.

But ahead of the July 4 premiere of Transformers 3 director Bay has revealed for the first time he was told to get rid of the actress.

He said: 'You know the Hitler thing. Steven (Spielberg) said, fire her right now.'

Spielberg is executive producer of the film which stars Shia LaBeouf.

Fox had appeared in the first two Transformers films and the roles helped her be named one of the sexiest women in the world.

She had been cast in the third film but shortly before production began she gave an interview to the British magazine Wonderland.

In it she said Bay wanted to be like Hitler on his sets.

Other crew members from the film hit back on a blog comparing Fox's acting to that of a porn star.

In an open letter posted on Michael Bay's website the crew member wrote: 'Michael found this shy, inexperienced girl, plucked her out of total obscurity thus giving her the biggest shot of any young actresses' life.

'He told everyone around to just trust him on his choice. He granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth.

'She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina – second thought – she's no Angelina. You see, Angelina is a professional.

'We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies.'

The film's screenwriter Ehren Kruger told GQ magazine that Fox didn't seem interested when she arrived for rehearsals for Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

He said:'She seemed like an actress who didn't want to be part of it.'

LaBeouf told GQ:' She started s*** talking our captain. Which you can't do.'

Bay said he wasn't hurt by the Hitler comment.

Lauren Goodger flashes her diamond after claims Mark Wright 'made a move' on Jorgie Porter

Lauren Goodger today did her best to deny reports her relationship with Mark Wright is in trouble as she stepped out wearing her engagement ring.

It was claimed today that Lauren had moved out of the flat she shares with the TOWIE lothario after finding out he 'made a move' on Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter.

The News of the World claimed renowned ladies' man Mark had tried his luck with pretty young blonde Jorgie during a night out in Liverpool on Thursday.

A source told the paper: 'It was clear to see he was making a move on her. As a single girl, she was loving it.

'He was drunk and showing off. During a game of poker, he was touching her hand and she was grabbing his leg.'

It was also claimed Mark had approached Jorgie's Hollyoaks co-star Gemma Merna during the evening out.

But Jorgie took to her Twitter page to write: 'Don't believe everythin u read guys..had fun night out wiv hollyoaks and towie but that was it!They'll be linkin me 2 arg next!night all x'

The claims are the latest in a string of reports about Mark's alleged cheating.

MailOnline told earlier this week how Lauren was furious after hearing Mark's ex Lucy Mecklenburgh's claims that she had kissed the reality star while they were on holiday in Marbella.

But it appears Lauren lives by the 'forgive and forget' motto, as she was seen happily flashing her engagement ring at a public appearance today.

After going without her solitaire diamond ring at a public appearance earlier this week, Lauren ensured all eyes were on the jewel as she promoted her fake tanning range Lauren's Way at the The New You Beauty Show in Hertford.

And Mark has also taken to Twitter to try and assure fans of his love for fiancée Lauren.

He wrote on the social networking site last night: 'On the way home in the spud mobil looking forward 2 bed hurry up @LaurenGoodger u best be in bed b4 me warming it up.'

And this morning, after the papers had come out, Mark then tweeted: 'Hi every1. Bit of breakfast with @LaurenGoodger then on to some shopping and lunch.'

Heidi Montag Showing off her curves

She was already skinny, but reality TV star Heidi Montag claims to have recently shed 27 pounds by spending more time at the gym than most people spend at work.

In a new interview, Heidi, 24, says she spent the last two months exercising 14 hours a day to transform her figure.

Now Heidi, who had already radically changed her body with at least ten plastic surgeries, appears to finally be satisfied with the way she looks.

'I've been working out from, like, 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. for two months now,' she told US Magazine.

At her heaviest, 5'2' reality TV star said she weighed 130 pounds, but felt needed to drastically trim down.

'I've been running a lot, and I've been doing weights,' she said.

Although it's curious how much she was really able to run with her self proclaimed 'E or F' cup breasts, which would obviously make intense physical exercise difficult.

Heidi has previously admitted to getting breast enlargement surgery along with a nose job, chin jobs, an eyebrow lift, fat injections and other surgeries.

Still, she felt she needed to lose weight to achieve a perfect bikini body.

'I've been working out really hard because I had this pool party and I was like, I have to be in shape,' she revealed to US.

Heidi attended that pool party yesterday in Las Vegas with runaway bride, Crystal Harris, on what would have been the Playmate’s wedding day to Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner.

'I'm doing okay,' Crystal told People as she headed off for some fun at Wet Republic inside the MGM Grand Hotel.

'I just had to get away. Today is the day and I just had to get away. I'm going back tonight so I just wanted to get away for the day.'

As her wedding day approached, She said she knew she didn't want to marry the man who's 60 years her senior.

'I wanted to be true to myself and be true to what was best for everybody,' Crystal admitted.

But Hefner's ex, Holly Madison isn't exactly a fan of Crystal's or her decision to spend the weekend in Sin City.

'That's a new low,' Holly Tweeted of Crystal's partying in Las Vegas.

'That's disgusting and whoever booked her is tacky,' she added, suggesting that Crystal had been paid to make her poolside appearance.

Amy Winehouse booed and jeered by Serbian crowd as she slurs and stumbles her way through Belgrade concert

Earlier this month she checked out of rehab and was given the go ahead to embark on her European tour.

But it would seem that Amy Winehouse has spectacularly fallen off the wagon as her Serbian fans found out to their horror last night.

The singer was booed as she took to the stage in Belgrade on the first leg of her 12-date stint, and looked intoxicated as she stumbled around the stage.

A representative for the singer said that upcoming festival dates in Istanbul on Monday and in Athens on Wednesday would be cancelled following the Belgrade show.

Her next show is scheduled for July 8 in Spain.

A statement released by Winehouse's management read: 'Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home.

'She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do.'

An hour after she was due to arrive on stage in Belgrade, after being introduced by one of her backing singers, she staggered on and made her way to the back to hug one of her guitarists.

Wearing a short green and black dress that accentuated her cosmetically-enhanced breasts, she sat down on one of the speakers and adjusted her shoes while her concerned backing singer asked if she was ok and steadied her back to her microphone.

Amy, 27, looked confused and then took off one of her shoes which she threw on the floor before walking unsteadily over to her microphone.

After missing her cue a couple of times, she proceeded to deliver a half-spoken and mumbled version of her song Just Friends, her last release back in 2008.

Halfway through, slurring her words which she had difficulty stringing together, she told the crowd at the city's Kalemegdan Park: 'Let me bring the band introduction.'

But then she tried to continue singing the song, smiling all the while, seemingly oblivious of how she was coming across to her fans.

After hugging herself and failing to sing most of the song, she then came back in as the band finished, looked surprised and then slurred 'Just Friends' into the microphone as an astonished crowd booed and halfheartedly clapped.

The situation didn't improve much throughout the concert, as the Back to Black singer disappeared off stage several times leaving her band playing.

And according to local press reports, the 20,000 fans described as a 'scandal' and a 'disaster'.

Fans were also angry as may had paid about £35 a ticket which is a lot of money in a country where the average salary is about £274 a month.

One fan angrily wrote on YouTube - where videos of her disastrous performance have been posted - that he was still mad at her.

They fumed: 'She started a show and turned her back to public (btw, for most of us it was not that easy to give the money for ticket because of the economic situation in Serbia) and that was just the beginning of her disrespect and bizarre behavior.

'She did not sang one song from beginning to the end, Some of them she didn't even tried to sing. Not a fan anymore'

Amy is due in Turkey tomorrow to play Istanbul's Kucuk Ciftlik Park and also has dates in Greece, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, Hungary and Romania, finishing up on 15 August at Iolanda Balas Soter Stadium, Bucharest.

Earlier this month she checked out of The Priory Clinic at the suggestion of her father, Mitch, over concerns she was drinking too much prior to her live shows.

Her spokesman said: 'Amy Winehouse has completed her assessment at the Priory Clinic in London and will continue as an outpatient.

'She is now looking forward to playing shows around Europe this summer and is raring to go.

'She would like to send a huge thanks to all her fans for the messages of support she has received over the last week and can't wait to see them.'
