Mos Def banned from South Africa for trying to use a" word passport" after visa expired.

Hip hop star Mos Def has been arrested in South Africa for using an unrecognized 'world passport'.

The rapper and actor, who now goes by the name Yasiin Bey, was detained at Cape Town International Airport for violating immigration laws, a government spokesman said.

When asked to present his travel documents when trying to leave South Africa, Mos Def handed over a world passport instead of a genuine one, officials said.

The  Love & Money singer, who was born Dante Smith, now has 14 days to leave the country.

South African Department of Home Affairs spokesman Mayihlome Tshwete said Mos Def, 42, entered the country in 2013 on an American visa, but overstayed his visitors' permit, which expired in 2014.

He had tried to leave using a world passport - a document that is not accepted in most countries but whose owners claim gives them the right to enter or leave any country as stipulated by the United Nations.

Explaining the court's decision, Mr Tshwete wrote on Twitter: 'We are all fans guys... but the law is the law.' 

He continued: 'With regards to Mr Smith (Mos Def), SAPS (South African Police Service) has charged him with usage of fraudulent travel documents. The matter is currently before the courts. 

'Mr Smith has been living in SA with his family without the necessary permits, he was detained upon departure for using illegal travel docs.

'Mr Smith came into SA with a legitimate US passport but since overstayed his visitors permit. Mr Smith was departing SA using a "World Passport", SA does not recognise a "World Passport".

'The Department Of Home Affairs has given Mr Smith and his family 14 days to leave the republic.'

Mos Def, whose tracks also include Mathematics and Ms. Fat Booty, has reportedly lived in Cape Town since May 2013.

Aside from his music, he also starred in films such as The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, the 2003 remake of The Italian Job and Life of Crime. He also appeared in television shows Dexter and House.

He was nominated for a Golden Globe and an Emmy in 2004 for his performance as surgeon Vivien Thomas in Something the Lord Made.

 

Underwater fashion shoot.

In the mood for an underwater shoot? We know we are!

We present “No Air“- an underwater fashion shoot starring popular beauty blogger Barbara Onianwah (Barbara1923) and Nollywood actress, Jumai Shaba. Shot by photographer, Deji Olatunde & Tolu Ajayi with pieces by Obijie, the shoot shows both models looking ethereal and pretty while moving around in the water.

 

Barbara has this to say about the shoot;

“So 5 supremely creative people got together to do ” No Air” an ad hoc underwater fashion shoot on a whim and without a budget over a weekend. These are the results.

“What happens when dreams are stifled and freedom inhibited? There is stagnation, there is breathlessness, there is NO AIR. You gasp for air, you struggle for release but there is no way you can get these without fighting your way out. There are communities in and outside Nigeria who struggle with this phenomenon in more ways than one.

That is the story behind this project. We hope to get the attention of interested individuals and organisations in the full scale of this project.

It took us 24 hours to execute this test shoot, but we did it and it was done – out of passion, out of nothing, out of a desire and that’s all it took.“

 

Check out the Behind-the-Scenes photos & the shoot below;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eva Longoria reveals she wants tacos and mariachi band at her wedding.

She's not set a date yet but Eva Longoria already knows she wants a 'big fat Mexican wedding'.

The actress appeared on Watch What Happens Live along with Ryan Seacrest on Wednesday and dished on her upcoming nuptials to fiancé José Antonio Bastón.

During a quickfire round of questions, Eva, 40, revealed that the event will definitely have a mariachi band and it must have tacos.

Cohen tried to get the scoop on Eva's wedding gown, saying: 'It's been reported that your buddy Victoria Beckham will be designing your gown...'

Eva responded 'We haven't even talked about a gown' before swiftly changing the subject adding, 'I wanna elope'

The Desperate Housewives star was asked whether E! producer Seacrest, 41, will be attending her nuptials and she giggled 'Seacrest is invited, Seacrest emceed my other wedding!'

 

This will be the Texan beauty's third time down the aisle following marriages to General Hospital star Tyler Christopher and French basketball pro Tony Parker. 

 

Out of all of her Housewives cast, the actress said she would probably pick Felicity Huffman if she could only pick one to come to the wedding. 

On the Today Show last week, the actress said of the proposal: 'I'm still applauding him for how beautiful and amazing it was.

'Then we’ll talk about the big fat Mexican wedding.' 

The Televisa president got down on one knee in the middle of the desert in Dubai last month.

Shortly afterwards, Eva took to social media to share a snap of the couple kissing while she flashed her new ruby ring and announced the big news in the accompanying caption.

The couple have been together for nearly three years after being introduced by a mutual friend.

 

Shakira and husband Gerard Pique loved up on Barcelona football pitch.

She always supports her husband at his matches.

So it came as no surprise to see Shakira at Gerard Piqué's Barcelona vs Granada match, heading onto to the home grounds to congratulate the footballer after his 4-0 win.

With their 11-month-old son scooped up in the defender's arms, Shakira, 38, looked loved-up and content as she planted a kiss on her beau.

The couple enjoyed a tender moment on the pitch, gazing into each other's eyes as their two-year-old son Milan ran around the grounds

Noticing the affectionate family display, Gerard's teammate Sergi Busquets and his pregnant girlfriend lena Galera looked on fondly.

She Wolf hitmaker Shakira looked casual but chic in a denim shirt and white vest, showing off her shapely legs in a pair of leather trousers. 

Adding some height in a pair of wedge Nike trainers, the Colombian beauty still had to stretch to reach her husband, leaning in for a sweet smooch.

Seemingly make-up free and with her blonde locks piled under a camouflage print baseball cap, the mum-of-two looked happy and content as she snuggled up to her cute family.

 

Having changed out of his kit, Gerard, 28, cut a dapper figure in a pair of jeans and a fitted black jumper.

It seemed like it was back to business as usual for the tight-knit family after they spent the Christmas period in Paris and Tokyo together.

Whilst Gerard has been back at work with Barcelona FC, the two-time Grammy winner has been busy promoting her app, Love Rocks, an animated game featuring the star herself.

The star has also been discussing her upcoming movie, Zootopia

In the animated Disney flick, Shakira voices a pop star called Gazelle as well as singing Try Everything - a track penned by Sia and Stargate.

The 3D movie follows the story of Officer Judy Hopps - voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin - a rabbit who is a member of the Zootopia Police Department.

Also featuring Octavia Spencer, Idris Elba, and J.K. Simmons, the family film hits US theaters on March 4 and UK theaters on March 25.

A Poem by Soonest Nathaniel Scholes.

With Coffee-Spoons...
October 31,2012 at 4:51pm.


With Coffee-Spoons …

…Eliot T.S taught me…

I too have measured out
my life with coffee-spoons,

dividing and cutting out rations

for evenings

mornings

and afternoons.

I know how many bails can empty the sea of
 earth’s tears.

I know how many

grubs of smoothly powdered pride

fused in hot liquid envy,

made-up Lucifer’s cup of doom.


I know how many

ladles of gritted lust

passed under the heat of passed under the heat of steaming passion,

excited the unstable Eve to that forbidden
 tree;

where of the serpentine’s brewed espresso,
 death’s sweet crema she tasted free.

  I know how many

scoops of plain humility

dissolved in the brisk fluid of compassion,

made possible the salvation of humanity,

that sacrifice at Golgotha, the steep price paid
 for man’s redemption.

I know how many bails can empty the sea of
 earth’s tears.

O! With coffee-spoons

I also have measured cautiously,

I also have measured cautiously,

how many dippers of the milky dust of
 glittering hope…

is required to revive and irradiate the dead
dreams and black aspirations

 of my despondent Africa.


I meticulously calculated

how many grams of granulated tolerance

would be sufficient to produce the tea of
 peace,

In a quantity large enough to fill the cup

of all those troubled souls thriving in the war-
torn east.


I have carefully estimated

how many cubes of crystallized brotherly love

needs be added to sweeten the bitter tea of
 this hate flavored world.


I know how many bails can empty the sea of
 earth’s tears.



I have religiously counted

How many mustard seeds of faith

is essential to move mountains,

I know how much iota of doubt

can make Thomas believe.


Yea! With coffee-spoons

I have stirred the boat of fate,

paddling steadfastly upon life’s fiery
 fountains,

rowing relentlessly down the lake of
 drudgery:

Lo! I have turned her wheels towards the
making of a new history.


I know how many bails can empty the sea of
 earth’s tears.

Anny Razon: THE MIRACLE PEDDLER.

The Miracle Peddler

******************************
2:30 p.m, Tuesday and the expected call just came through. Being the last week of the month, Pastor Kay was coming into Uyo from Port Harcourt and that was good news. Here was another chance to hustle him, have fun and rake some cool dough in at the end of the week; a chance Valentine wouldn't miss for anything in the world.

These dealings are not supposed to be expressly discussed over the phone, so whenever pastor's PA, the burly Matt calls, painstakingly elucidating what the pastor's visit to Uyo meant- as if he had not always been the contact man- and what he needed to do, Valentine usually felt a surge of anger course through him. He was not a numskull and hated being treated like one. He knew his schedules
First, he had to book for accommodation in a hotel different from the one used the last time. Pastor Kay is a materialist. The accommodation had to be a first class suite. The two girls the pastor would spend thursday night with had been pre-arranged. Recently, it has not been as tough for Valentine to get girls for him as it used to be at the start. Pastor is always generous with his money and very suave with his fun; the university being a small community, these girls go back and spread the gossips.

"Valentine is a procurer for some rich and extravagant pastor with excellent bed skills. The pay is as good as the fun and 'good-ol' Val charges no commissions", they would tell others.

The result of this: fresh ones with swaying hips stalked him to lonely corners and begged for a chance- to be carried along- nowadays. For this particular racket, he choose to deal only with students of the prestigious University of Uyo. These ones are a- wee more sophisticated than their Polytechnic and College of Education counterparts. They needed the dough alright, yet they knew how to spread the fun. The tingly-diggly type of fun that made Pastor Kay erupt into elongated bellows of laughter. The type that made him ask for more.

Then, he'll have to call Nkasi, his lines-man from the Polytechnic, in Ikot Osurua and give directives. Nkasi will have pre-arranged between ten and fifteen students from the Polytechnic for the programme. They had to be different from the ones used the last time. Miracles need not be repeated. He will hire a bus and commute them to Angler's Hotels, where they will be lodged- thursday night- against the friday morning trip to PH.
***
5:30 p.m, thursday evening and Pastor was already in town. By 6:00 p.m he was sufficiently lodged in an exquisite hotel along F- Line in Ewet Housing Estate.
The two girls were ushered in by Val and as they flirted and giggled seductively, Pastor sitting on one side of the giant twin- bed, sized them up. He was the lion; they were his prey. Signals were sent and understood, looks were exchanged, hush-hush talk and Valentine was out of the suite in no time.

***
5:30 p.m, thursday evening and the sixteen-sitter Hiace bus was sufficiently boarded from Ikot Osurua to Uyo main town. By 6:00 p.m, the twelve students had been lodged- in pairs- at Angler's Hotels. 6:15 p.m and Valentine was driven into Angler's by pastor's driver. Valentine and Nkasi met, hush-hush talk and Valentine addressed the pack.
"Welcome, fellow Nigerian students. We are here on a purpose; while you eat free, drink free and make as much merry as you deem fit, remember that by tomorrow morning we shall be on our way to a church programme at Port Harcourt. There, we shall be told how to help our benefactor, all towards the success of his programme. If we shall do as we shall be directed- which I have no doubt, we will- then we should be smiling home on Sunday morning with good monies in our pockets. Enjoy your stay".

***

Dusk was fast approaching and preparations were in earnest. The students had arrived Port Harcourt in the early afternoon hours. They were taken to the church camping ground: a large warehouse-type building along Trans Amadi. Loud prayers were heard as they were being herded towards a hall behind the main building. There, Valentine had addressed them. He was not surprised when none of them expressed any sort of astonishment after he told them the secret behind their trip and explained what they had to do and how to do it well. He smiled to himself. Nkasi had done his job well. He had systematically told them of what business brought them there long before they set their feet on the church camping ground.

The big Pastor came in next, dressed in black suede pants, an exotic body- fitting leather jacket over a green paisley shirt. His tie was noosed in the half- Windsor style with a dimple at the bridge. His Italian shoes accentuated the looks more. He was a generous dresser. As he strode gingerly towards them, he began to mutter in strange tongues- the language of miracles- swaying this way and that. He hissed and suddenly screamed "receive it", whooping the air instantaneously towards the students pack. All but one fell down uncontrollably. The only one just stood there, his attention on the cell phone he had in his hands, as he typed away.

"O! Ye of little faith", Pastor Kay shouted as he pointed towards him. Then he walked briskly out.

Anointing oil was brought by someone- probably an assisting pastor- and rubbed on each of the fallen students forehead. They rose like zombies. It felt weird to observe the unnerving calm that came over them afterwards. The magic had already worked.

As the students regained vigor, they were divided into two groups of six each. A team of miracle tutors attended to one while make-up coaches attended to the others.

The miracle tutors told the one team how to receive healing for minor ailments like stomach ulcers, pile, non- ceasing migraines, movement around the body etc. and how to render great testimonies.

The coaches taught the other team how to limb as cripples, totter like the blind and whimper like the dumb. Roles where assigned, wheel-chairs, crutches, black googles and other such gadgets where brought; they were all dressed in disguise, with make ups- balms and caulk rubbed on supposedly blind eye-lids, dust rubbed on pretentious lame legs. The students filed out into the bus; they bus headed out towards the church- venue for the miracles that will transform them to their normal forms again.

***

It was 7:45 p.m and the massive church auditorium was already packed to capacity. Large crowds had occupied the whole church area. Buses loaded with miracle seekers turned in their numbers into the venue. Traffic gridlocks had no end as the only access road was on a lock down. One could hear passersby- in taxis and on feet- chattering about Pastor Kay's 'Night of a Thousand Miracles'. This was the last friday of the month. Tonight was the night.

The students alighted one after the other, each with their gadget, burdened with the diseases assigned to them.

By 8:30 p.m, the air was already tense and the people ready for miracles. Totems of devotion were sold by the walk ways. Holy water, anointing oil, crosses, handkerchiefs, good luck stickers, hand bands, Tee shirts dorned with 'Night of a Thousand Miracles' insignia, even special protection perfumes.

By the time the pastor started speaking in strange tongues- words that sounded like 'robo la robo, o' sala mala tu! Robo o! Jesu; teknon mele mele shaback tani'- the church had erupted into fierce prayers. This was really an atmosphere for miracles. Pastor Kay momentarily dipped his right hand into his coat pocket and produced a white handkerchief. With his left hand firmly clutching the microphone to his mouth, he booed deeply in eerie baritones, the effect booming over loudly over the speakers. Each boom was accompanied by a fling of the handkerchief and the resultant falling over of most members of the crowd. It looked like a strong wind, a tsunami worked through the crowd pushing down people as it swooshed pass. Miracles started happening.

The students waited turns, each screaming out loud over his healing. From different locations, each was taken to the altar to give his testimony and show the world what power of healing abounded in Pastor Kay's works. Other members of the crowd joined in. The lame walked; blind eyes were opened. Tithe and offering boxes were perpetually emptied and replaced as they quickly filled up again.

The congregation praised and praised. Shouts rented the air in bits. The lone student stood away at a corner with his cell phone recording the events of the night. It was all so unbelievable how Pastor Kay could use twelve students to rent such a huge crowd.

***

7:00 a.m in the morning and the students were ready to commute back to Uyo. Wide smiles were perpetually plastered on the lips of most as they reeled in the events of the past night. Each had an experience in miracle peddling. The twenty thousand naira wads in their individual bags and pockets were proof that they partook of the miracle of healing. But one student stood out different from the others. He had been taking pictures before settling into the front seat of the bus. He was sober. He didn't engage in any conversation.

Before the bus rolled out of the camp ground, the big Pastor had sent for Valentine and Nkasi. In his small office, a fifty thousand naira bundle was given to each of them. Pastor Kay expressed his appreciation for the manner both procurers always stood by him to make his programme a success. Then, he had told them of some detractors; very wicked enemies who wanted to bring him down. At the end, he had warned them sternly not to board the bus. His driver would convey them back with one of his numerous SUVs.

When they emerged from the office, the pastor had walked to the bus. He stood by the rolling door, scanning faces.

"O! Ye of little faith. The son of man shall not be put to shame", he had exclaimed.
The bus drove out. One of Pastor Kay's SUV'S drove behind. The students were in the bus, Val and Nkasi were in the SUV.

***

"There was a mishap along East- West road this morning. Nobody knew exactly how it happened, but a bus filled with student coming back from a church programme in Port Harcourt skidded off the tarmac and ran into a tree in the nearby bushes. One student died on the spot, the others have been rushed to a nearby hospital. It is suspected that the driver must have dozed from exhaustion".

This was the news broadcast over the car stereo even as the driver drove the SUV into the hospital's parking lot that afternoon. Valentine and Nkasi rushed into the crowded OPD. They were led to the two wards holding the students. Few of them had sustained very minor injuries. Others were just suffering from shock.

Valentine had asked to see the dead student. He was taken to a separate section- a morgue. There he saw him- the same student that was typing away on his cell phone, the one that didn't fall when the Pastor wielded his powers- he lay there without physical injury. But he was dead.

***

It was about 3:00 p.m and the driver was racing the SUV back towards Port Harcourt. They had to reach the site of the accident and access it. Moreover, Valentine hoped to recover the personal effects of the victims. The sun was still hot when they located the bus in the bushes. The damage was not severe as told on the radio. Apart from the wind-screen which was shattered by an over hanging tree trunk, there were just few scratches on the body. They opened the doors and started searching for belongings. Bags and shoes lay tossed. Valentine went to the front passenger side and opened the door. There was a phone tugged at the fold between the seat and the back rest. Valentine took the phone and started scrolling through. He went to the picture folder and saw pictures of the Pastor in different poses of healing. There were also those of the other students being made-up for the programme.

Valentine was confused. He scrolled to the message folder and was shocked to read a string of smses sent to a certain number all about the pastor's pretentious healing.

Just then, revelations hit him. The one student sat on the front seat. He was the enemy pastor was referring to. He was the mole- the reason why Pastor Kay asked him and Nkasi not to board the bus back. Maybe he was a student- journalist who came on to expose the pastor's hyprocrisy.

Somehow, Pastor Kay knew about his real intentions...and killed him.

Leonardo Di Caprio smoulders on the cover of GQ Australia.

He has been tipped for long overdue Oscar success for his role in The Revenant. 

And as film buffs gush over Leonardo Di Caprio's performance in the grisly film, it seems the star is basking in the spotlight. 

Appearing on the cover of GQ Australia this month, the actor is every inch the leading man in a sharp grey suit and white shirt.

Staring confidently down the camera lens, he appears sitting on a stool on the most recent issue of the magazine. 

Beneath his portrait reads the tag line: 'Oscar hunting with the enigmatic actor,' a nod to an accompanying interview in the publication.

The cover's release comes as the 41-year-old was named among nominees for Best Actor at the 88th Academy Awards. 

 

He has been nominated for his role in Alejandro Iñárritu's film The Revenant in which he plays frontiersman Hugh Glass in the 1820s.

The film, which has been put up for Best Motion Picture, is among the most talked-about of the year with Di Caprio previously telling of the challenges he endured while filming.

The actor went to extreme lengths to deliver an authentic performance, eating raw bison liver and folding himself naked in to the carcass of a dead horse. 

Speaking of the project last year, Di Caprio described it as among the most challenging of his career. 

'There's no crew member or actor in this movie that wouldn't feel like this was a gigantic endurance test.

'We all knew what we were signing up for, we were submerging ourselves in the elements and on locations that were logistically very difficult to get to, the weather was a constant challenge and we were working in sub-zero temperatures.' 

It is the star's fourth Oscar nomination, with fans and film enthusiasts fervently hopeful that he will be given the prestigious award next month.

 

 

 

Celine Dion mourns the death of her husband.

Celine Dion will not be resuming her residency in Las Vegas until February after the tragic death of her husband René Angélil, who lost his battle against cancer on Thursday aged 73.

The 47-year-old pop diva immediately canceled her performances at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on Saturday and Sunday and an official announcement confirmed she will is not scheduled to return untill February 23.

Angélil, who had fought cancer for almost 20-years, passed away at the couple's Vegas home just two days shy of his 74th birthday and one month after their 21st wedding anniversary on December 17.

In a statement posted to her official Facebook page, Dion said her

beloved husband had a 'long and courageous fight against cancer. The family wishes to live the mourning in privacy.'

The five-time Grammy winner was only 12 years old when twice-divorced René declared her a star and became her mentor/manager.

In 1981, he reportedly mortgaged his home to fund Celine's first record La voix du bon Dieu and, by 1993, the French-Canadian couple went public with their romance.

Last March, a tearful Dion revealed her husband was no longer able to eat and was getting all of his meals through a tube.

'He can't use his mouth. He can't eat so I feed him. He's got a feeding tube. I have to feed him three times a day. I do this myself. So I feed my husband, then I feed my kids,' Dion told Good Morning America.

By August, the Overjoyed hitmaker told USA Today that Angélil was preparing for his death.

Recalling their conversation, Celine said: 'I'll say, "You're scared? I understand. Talk to me about it." And René says to me, "I want to die in your arms." Okay, fine, "I'll be there, you'll die in my arms."'

René leaves behind the couple's fraternal twins Eddy and Nelson, 5, and son René-Charles Jr., 15.

Angélil also has a son Patrick, 47 (with ex-wife #1 Denyse Duquette), and a son Jean-Pierre, 41, and daughter Anne-Marie, 38 (with ex-wife #2 Manon Kirouac).

'I'm trying really hard to show my children that sickness and things happen in life. You cannot be crying and be depressed and consistently talk about, "Oh my God!"' the Québec-born beauty told Us Weekly in August

'René-Charles is going to be 15 years old soon. He's a wonderful young man. He's entered his teenage years and sometimes we can go really crazy, for some teenagers, but so far so good.

'I have tremendous respect for my oldest, René-Charles, because he's showing strength to see his dad this way because he's been his anchor. When he was younger he knew his dad was older but they bonded a lot. I'm sure it's hard for him.'

Angélil was born in Montreal to a Canadian mother and Syrian father.

He played in the group Les Baronnets until 1972, when he began managing the careers of several singers in Quebec.

It has been confirmed that Dion will not be performing on Saturday for her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace's Colosseum.

During her concert, Celine screens home movies in the background while belting The First Time I Ever I Saw Your Face.

 

 

 

 

 

Jenners of the jungle! Kendall and Kris looking glam.

Despite a 40 year age gap - the Jenners have proved animal print works across the ages.

Kendall Jenner and her mum Kris wore an abundance of super-glamorous jungle-inspired outerwear for a day of shopping in Calabasas, California on Thursday.

The supermodel, 20, looked sensational in a grey and white snakeskin biker jacket, while her 60-year-old mother went for out-and-out glamour in an ankle-length, tiger print coat

The duo were filming, no doubt drama-laden, scenes for their hit reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians as they shopped up a storm in their local designer boutiques.

Both mother and daughter appeared to go for faux skin and fur, although they have been known to controversially opt for real fur garments in the past.

Kendall rocked her snakeskin with aplomb as she topped off the statement piece with a minimalist look beneath.

She wore high-waisted black jeans with a white polo-neck jumper, which just skimmed her stomach to flash her toned abs and gave an edgy look with black ankle boots.

 

 

The model, who has stormed the catwalk for the likes of Chanel and Victoria's Secret, wore her glossy mane in a centre parting with stylish long layers graduated throughout.

Minimal make-up acted to show off her flawless complexion with a strong brow and muted lip perfecting the au naturel feel.

Kendall accessorised with a small black handbag with a turquoise pom-pom attached and a pair of c chic aviator sunglasses.

Kris looked every inch the tigress in her glamorous brown coat, skimming her ankles and boasting a huge exaggerated collar which tumbled over her shoulders.

She shielded her eyes with black Ray Ban sunglasses before whipping off the eyewear to reveal her typically heavy handed make-up with her ever-present smokey eyes.

The Kardashian matriarch wore her trademark raven pixie crop in a stylised, mussed do which suited her 'walk on the wild side' ensemble.

Famed for colluding in the rise-and-rise of her super famous children, ever the opportunist, Kris grabbed a copy of her cook book In the Kitchen with Kris: A Kollection of Kardashian-Jenner Family Favorites to flash at vying photographers.

She beamed as she held the cook book - grasping the moment for a touch of self-promotion.  

Mother and daughter shared a laugh with each other, their camera crew and the shop staff as they rummaged through the crockery. 

After filming, Kendall looked every inch the retro beauty as she hopped into her turquoise Chevrolet Corvette convertible while driving solo.

 

 

 

 

Star Wars Actress Daisy Ridley wears pink beanie hat and leather trousers as she arrives Heathrow airport.

She's one of the hottest stars on the circuit and Daisy Ridley looked casually cool when she arrived at Heathrow airport on Sunday. 

The 23-year-old was pictured arriving at Heathrow airport following her recent trip to Los Angeles. Daisy, who hails from Westminster London, also enjoyed a New Year's holiday with her mother in the sun-filled Florida locale.

Gisele Bundchen and husband take to the stands to watch son's hockey practice.

As the wife of one of the U.S.'s most famous sporting personalities, Gisele Bundchen has plenty of experience of life in the stands. But it wasn't New England Patriots quarterback Tom she was cheering on this Saturday.

Instead, it was the turn of their son Ben to take centre stage, as his doting parents watched, along with his little sister Vivian. Victoria's Secret Angel Gisele kept warm in a black puffer jacket with tan fur-lined hoodie for the family outing in Boston.

Christina Milian Shows off Toned Tummy at BAFTA tea Party.

Christina Milian was the cream of the crop as she hit up the BAFTA Awards Season Tea Party in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

The 34-year-old singer perhaps tried to capture a little spotlight for herself while mingling with the luminous nominees of 2016 at BAFTA's prestigious annual event.

Christina turned heads by showing off her toned tummy in a billowy, blush-coloured crop top and cream satin cape trousers from which trailed a long and luxurious train.
