The perils of a Lo-cut dress: Jennifer Lopez suffers embarrassing wardrobe malfunction live on German TV

By PAMELA OWEN

Diva: Lopez has been touring Europe to promote her latest album 'Love?' and has done a number of TV interviews


As far as wardrobe malfunctions go, Jennifer Lopez could probably count this one as her worst ever.

The 42-year-old singer managed to fully expose her ample bosom during an interview with German television.

Lopez has fiercely been promoting her latest album, 'Love?' across Europe but the recent appearance left her a little over exposed and will, no doubt, make her blush.




Unsuspecting: Jennifer is in a jovial mood as she is greeted by the show's presenter Thomas Gottschalk


Windy: TV presenter Thomas Gottschalk runs to Jennifer's rescue but little do they know she's about to reveal even more flesh


It all started when the signer arrived on a horse drawn carriage for the live filming of 'Wetten das...?' - German for 'wanna bet that' - at the Coliseo Balear bull fighting arena in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.

The singer looked gorgeous in a floor-length beige and black dress with a matching head band and the crowds screamed as she waved.


Superstar: Fans at the bull fighting arena went crazy as Jennifer performed her hit On the Floor


But her flowing outfit, which was barely held together with a large brown belt, was probably not suited and kept whipping up in the windy weather.

As she greeted the show's presenter Thomas Gottschalk and Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel a huge gust of wind started to blow her flowing dress up.

Almost immediately Gottschalk can be seen scuttling over to her in a bid to try and keep the ensemble down.

And Lopez sighs with relief as she manages to escape showing too much flesh.
But she didn't suspect she was about to commit an even greater faux pas


Glamorous: The singer talks to host Gottschalk and Formula One World Champion Sebastian Vettel


As she sits down the singer's entire breast pops out, leaving her completely exposed.
Completely oblivious to what just happened, the singer carries on with the interview unaware that she has just given Gottschalk and Vettel an eyeful.

After discussing her latest album and revealing a bit about her personal life, she then went on to sing her hit song, On The Floor.

The interview was just one of many that she has been doing in Europe and was recently spotted with her mum Guadaulpe in Paris.

Last year Lopez spoke about how having her own children helped the pair mend their own troubled relationship.

Dressed casually in a grey cardigan and jeans, J-Lo didn't let the rain dampen her spirits as she did a bit of shopping with her mum.

The Diva, who is married to Marc Anthony, also recently revealed in an interview with the BBC that she might not be returning American Idol.

Lopez, who judged alongside Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson, announced in April that she was keen to start a new show to try and find undiscovered talent in Latin American countries with her husband.

The show, called Que Viva!, means that Lopez, who has two children, will be able to spend more time with her family.

Will Percy make Pippa a Duchess? Worth £300m with a castle to rival Windsor

By CATHERINE OSTLER

Friends in high places: Pippa Middleton with George Percy in Madrid. Percy is heir to Alnwick Castle


The mini-breaks to European capitals, the days out at swanky tennis tournaments — it’s classic 20-something just-split-up-from-my-partner behaviour.

Now that Pippa Middleton has parted from her banker boyfriend, handsome former cricketer Alex Loudon, the arduous task of consoling Her Royal Hotness appears to have fallen to an extremely eligible young bachelor: one George Percy.

There he is, blond and slightly dishevelled, pushing her luggage trolley as they head off to Madrid with friends; rowing her around a lake; laughing at her jokes at a café and accompanying her to nightclubs.


And again: Pippa Middleton watches the men's singles at The Queen's Club in West Kensington with Earl Percy


There he is again, by her side in London, emerging from a French restaurant near Sloane Square after a three-hour dinner, and taking her back to his flat until 2am; the next day he’s sitting next to her in the stands at The Queen’s Club in West Kensington, watching the tennis, wearing matching shades.

Pippa’s ex-flatmate from Edinburgh (she also resided with Ted Innes Ker, the son of the Duke of Roxburghe) has definitely made himself available for play dates recently, even though he is supposedly busy establishing himself as an entrepreneur.

The word is that they are still ‘just good friends’, although we could all forgive Alex Loudon for finding it deeply irritating that it just happens to be posh Percy who has stepped into the breach.



The ex: Pippa Middleton has parted from her banker boyfriend Alex Loudon, right, and is getting closer to 'Prince of the North' Earl Percy, left


How intriguing it would be if it turned into something more, and Michael and Carole Middleton of Bucklebury, Berks, had a double duchess situation on their hands.

George Percy, you see, is Earl Percy, heir to one of the richest and grandest dukedoms in the land, the Duchy of Northumberland.

The ancient pile he will inherit, Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, has been perching on the Border in some form for more than 1,000 years.

The castle, home to Hogwarts in the Harry Potter films, is known as the ‘Windsor of the North’ and the family are regarded locally in Border country as their royalty.


Nice pad: The ancient pile Earl Percy will inherit, Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, has been perching on the Border in some form for more than 1,000 years


No wonder young Earl Percy’s nickname is ‘the Prince of the North’. As a catch, in some ways, he eclipses even Prince William, offering magnificence and history — wealth (estimated at around £300 million; the truth is such estates are priceless) and land (more than 100,000 acres and 100 tenanted farms, as well as an estate in Surrey and Syon Park, in London) without the public responsibilities that go with being a royal.

And as well as enjoying his princely inheritance, he has the freedom to pursue the life of any go-getting young Sloane. That currently means founding an alternative energy company.

The young Earl Percy, 27, is not your average young toff, by any means. Though his family are renowned for their love of sport — father Ralph is said to be ‘obsessed’ with shooting, and Ralph’s younger brother Lord James Percy has designed shooting kit for Barbour — Percy himself has global ambitions.



Alnwick Castle is second only to Windsor Castle, pictured, in being the oldest inhabited castle in England


‘Clever, quite serious, hard-working,’ was the description of one friend.

Certainly, his track record shows no dilettantism. After Eton, he read Geography at Edinburgh, where he met and lived with Pippa.

He was part of what was known as ‘the Castle Crew’; an expensively-educated set of swishy-haired girls and robust young men who spent their weekends at country houses around Edinburgh, rather than going down to London. ‘They were more clean-cut than the hedonistic London lot, though still fun-loving. They liked shooting, drinking, games and outdoorsy life,’ says an Edinburgh contemporary.

Some of the girls were uncharitably known as ‘Brown Sign Hunters’, referring to the brown signs that point to Britain’s statelies.


Last month Pippa Middleton holidayed with George Percy and friends, pictured, in Madrid


Of all the Castle Crew invitations, the most sought after was Percy’s, to Alnwick in the Borders: an hour-and-a-half away from Edinburgh and, fittingly, second only to Windsor Castle in being the oldest inhabited castle in England.

It just so happens that the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh are visiting next Wednesday for a party in the grounds held by the Duchess, Jane, the county’s Lord Lieutenant.

After graduating — Percy specialised in sustainable development and renewable energy — he showed the scale of his ambitions; after going to the University of Damascus in Syria to study Arabic, Percy went to work on an oil research project in Abu Dhabi.

It was here that he came across his unlikely future business partner, Algy Cluff.
More than 40 years his senior, he is a man with a history in mining and once owned The Spectator.

Baldy Gaga! Singer stuns TV audience as she whips off green wig to reveal hairless head

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Wigging out: A bald Lady Gaga sings to her green hairpiece as she performed on Paul O'Grady Live last night


She's worn her hair in cola can rollers, tied it in a bow on the top of her head and dyed it a rainbow of colours.

But clearly it was getting all a bit too much for Lady Gaga, who seems to have decided that having no hair at all is now the way to go.

The singer left her fans gobsmacked last night, when she performed on TV completely bald.

The Judas star was a guest on Paul O'Grady Live and arrived on the show wearing a bobbed green wig which matched her fringed dress.

She immediately took to a piano which had been covered with brown curly hair, to perform the promotional song from her new album, aptly called Hair.


Furry: Sticking with the hair theme for her song, Gaga's piano was covered in brown locks, making it look like a huge dog


Playing with fire: Gaga was surrounded by frames as she performed her song


She sat down at the piano and took off the green wig - which she hung up in front of her - revealing a bald head underneath, before launching into the song.

Halfway through, she paused, grabbed her wig and put it back on her head as she finished the tune, all the time surrounded by fire.


Out of space: Gaga looked very alien-like as she greeted the audience


To rapturous applause from her adoring fans, she blew kisses to them before joining O'Grady on the sofa for a chat.

After declaring that he was 'my queen', they spoke about her new album Born This Way, which is the fastest-selling album to date.


I'll have you back now: Gaga reaches for her wig halfway through her performance


Quick fix: Gaga adjusts her wig back on her head before continuing with her song


She said: 'I just can't believe it, it's such a dream comes true and I was so nervous when I put the album out, I just wanted to make my fans so happy and wanted them to enjoy the music.'

After the break, she came back on the show, dressed in a colourful fringed jacket, pants and stockings and suspenders, a beret and huge sunglasses.

This week, Gaga got in trouble with the police while performing in Paris, when she caused a frenzy outside her hotel room when she leaned out of her window calling down to her fans.


You are my queen: Gaga and O'Grady chat away like old friends



Mismatched: Gaga came back after the break in a colourful fringed jacket, beret and huge sunglasses


According to the Sun, she was fined and told off by bosses at the Park Hyatt hotel for disturbing the peace in the early hours of Thursday morning.

A source told the paper: 'GaGa was given a telling off for her antics.

'Hotel bosses tried to get her to come in because of the frenzy she was creating outside but she didn't listen so the police turned up and fined her. She was like a woman possessed. You know what she's like with her fans.'

Katie Holmes takes her proud parents to see her win Women In Film award

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Big night: Katie Holmes poses with her mother Kathleen and father Martin at the Women In Film Max Mara Face Of The Future Award presentation in Beverly Hills


Katie Holmes brought her parents along to a glitzy awards show last night.

The 32-year-old actress is seen here posing with her mother Kathleen and father Martin at the Women In Film Max Mara Face Of The Future Award presentation in Beverly Hills.

And it was clear to see the striking resemblance between Katie and her mum.



Looking good: The actress turned heads as she arrived to the glitzy event, where she received an award


It was a big night for the former Dawson's Creek star, who picked up the Women in Film Face of the Future trophy.

The gong recognised her work in the industry and potential to have a long Hollywood career.

And clearly the star was keen for her philanthropist mother and divorce lawyer father to share in her success.

Katie, who is the youngest of five children, may have had her fair share of red carpet fashion disasters, but last night she looked a million dollars.


Bronzed and beautiful: She showed off her figure and glowing skin in a form-fitting black and white dress


Winner: She picked up the Women in Film Face of the Future trophy, seen here posing with Jenna Elfman


The mother of one was looking bronzed and beautiful, showing off her figure in a form-fitting black and white dress.

She teamed the short ensemble, which showed off the glowing skin and toned legs to full effect, with a pair of beige heels.

Speaking to the Press at the event, which was held in the Beverly Hilton Hotel's International Ballroom, Holmes said she would like to play 'someone glamorous, a combination of Grace Kelly and Marilyn Monroe'.


Bright and breezy: Elle Fanning, 13, wore a pretty turquoise prom dress to the glitzy event

She said: 'They're very different but bring together in one character that ladylike feeling and that pain and also the strength. It's something I'm interested in exploring.'

Other attendees at the awards show included Annette Bening, who turned up alongside husband Warren Beatty.

Elle Fanning was another VIP, with the 13-year-old opting for a pretty turquoise prom dress.

And Brittany Snow, Rose McGowan, Cote de Pablo, Garcelle Beauvais and Jenna Elfman, were also at the ceremony.

Kerry Katona is dropped by agent Claire Powell amid reports she 'blew her last chance'

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER


Dropped: Kerry Katona, pictured at her local YMCA today, has been dumped by her management CAN Associates


Kerry Katona has been dropped by her agent after she allegedly blew her last chance to save her career.

CAN Associates, which is run by Claire Powell, yesterday ended their working relationship with the troubled reality TV star and today confirmed they were no longer representing her.

They said: 'We can confirm that we no longer manage Kerry Katona.'

Adding that they had nothing further to say on the matter, they wouldn't give a reason for dropping the former pop star from their books.

Kerry was pictured looking in high spirits today, despite the potentially devastating blow to her career, as she arrived at her local YMCA with son Max.

The reality star, wrapped up against the unseasonably cold weather, smiled for the cameras.


Parting ways: Claire Powell (left, pictured with Katona in March) and CAN Associates today confirmed they had dropped Katona but wouldn't give a reason


Reports today claimed that CAN decided enough was enough after the star went on a six-hour drinking session on Wednesday night.

And the agency was said to be fed up that she wasn't putting any effort into rescuing her career.

Kerry, 30, was seen looking rather worse for wear as she left the May Fair hotel in the small hours of Thursday morning.


Was this the reason she was dropped? Kerry looked worse for wear as she left a six-hour drinking session which reportedly cost her her contract with her agent


She should have been attending the 21st birthday celebrations of TOWIE star Amy Childs, who is also represented by CAN.

CAN clients typically attend events together, and the Mail Online noted that Kerry was a surprising no show on the night.

A story in the Daily Star today suggested that not only did the drinking session cost her her agent, but that her snubbing the party also contributed.


One too many? Kerry was snapped sitting on a porter's trolley with her head in bag at the end of the night


A source claimed to the Daily Star: 'We rescued Kerry from obscurity a year ago.

'We have spent a lot of money cleaning up her image. We have given her a whole new image, new clothes, a new life and she has blown it all.'

Kerry signed to CAN in March last year as her career and public profile took a huge nosedive.


Parting ways: Claire Powell, seen here with celebrity clients Peter Andre and Amy Childs, dropped Kerry from her books yesterday


She had just split from her second husband Mark Croft, had been caught taking cocaine on camera and was declared bankrupt.

As part of her contract with CAN, she was banned from using drugs and subjected to regular testing, and banned from reuniting with Croft.

She was settled into a new home, adopted a new look which included a strict exercise and diet regime and starred in the sixth series of Dancing On Ice, which gave her career a much needed boost.

Fag Ash Cole: Chelsea star snapped puffing away on a cigarette during LA holiday

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Don't let Abramovich see you! Ashley Cole takes a drag on his cigarette as he is driven through Beverly Hills to meet his friends for lunch


He's supposed to be one of the country's top professional sportsmen who is paid a phenomenally huge amount of money for his skills.

But clearly no one's told Ashley Cole that smoking is not only bad for his health but for his career too.

The Chelsea and England star was snapped puffing away on a cigarette as he enjoyed his summer break.

The 30-year-old defender was seen taking a deep drag as he sat in the back of a car as he drove through Los Angeles.

Wearing a Panama hat, he seemed oblivious to the cameras as he puffed away without a care in the world.


And exhale: Ashley blows out his smoke as he takes in the view from the car window


Ashley is in the Californian city on a boys' holiday as he enjoys some time off from his Premiership and European Championship duties.

And as the old adage goes, boys will be boys, none more so than Ashley and his buddies who have been making the most of their Golden State break.


Not quitting yet then? Ashley is snapped having another cigarette as he had lunch with friends at a poolside bar in Beverly Hills



Something funny, lads? Ashley holds on to Shaun Wright-Phillips as they share a joke with their group which also included Zat Knight (khaki shorts)


Soon after he was snapped in his car, he was seen hanging out with some friends at a poolside bar in Beverly Hills.

Among his pals joining him for lunch and vodka-based drinks was Bolton Wanderers star Zat Knight and Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips.


Got some gossip? Ashley and Shaun look at something on the Manchester City star's phone


Summer break: Ashley looked relaxed and happy as he laughed along with his mates


They ordered a huge round of food which included a large plate of chips, a Caesar salad, sushi and some crudités.

They larked about and shared a joke while chatting on their mobiles phones and sharing pictures and messages.


Say when: Ashley tops up Zat's drink with some vodka as they relax over their lunch


And they kept the merriment topped up as they ordered two bottles of Grey Goose Vodka with cranberry and orange juice to mix it with.

Ashley is staying with a friend and a few days ago he was seen playing the dutiful house guest as he took out the rubbish.


Just chilling: Stuffed from their lunch, Ashley and the boys head to a poolside bed to relax in the sun


The full-back got to know the city last summer when he fled there after suffering a humiliating World Cup defeat.

The ex-husband of Cheryl, who he has reportedly been calling to offer his support after her X Factor dismissal, was then snapped smoking a cigarette as he arrived at a beer party.

Emma Watson laughs off romance rumours with new co-star (and workout buddy) Johnny Simmons

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Just friends: Emma Watson chats to her co-star Johnny Simmons after a run in the country in Pennsylvania


Emma Watson has laughed off reports of a romance with her latest co-star Johnny Simmons.

Despite the couple being photographed going for a run together in the Pennsylvania countryside, the Brit insisted they were just friends.

Wearing a pair of cropped leggings and sports jacket, the 21-year-old looked fresh-faced after her workout session.

The Harry Potter star has been in the U.S. since last month filming The Perks Of Being A Wallflower with Simmons.

The movie is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Stephen Chbosky.

And despite recent internet reports claiming the pair are a couple, Watson's representative insists her client is just work colleagues with Simmons, 25.


Friendly: The pair have formed a friendship while filming The Perks Of Being A Wallflower


Her rep tells the MailOnline: 'This is complete fiction.'

Watson was linked to Simmons just days after she lamented about her non-existent lovelife in an interview with the Sunday Times.

She said: 'I say to my friends, "Why hasn't X called me? Why doesn't anyone ever pursue me?" They're like, "Probably because they're intimidated."

'It must be the fame wall. It must be the circus that goes around me. Me, as a person, I find it hard to believe I would be intimidating.'


Keeping in shape: Watson has been spotted working out a lot more in recent weeks


In a recent interview with Vogue magazine, Watson said she and Potter co-star Daniel Radcliffe often used to share relationship advice during filming.

She said: 'We would help each other compose texts to our most recent flames.'

Watson has been single since a brief fling with One Night Only frontman George Craig last year.

You'll just have to keep on searching... Katie Price is left red-faced after auditions for her new reality show are a washout

By JESSICA SATHERLEY

On the lookout: Katie Price sat on an X Factor-style panel during the public auditions but the hordes of contestants organisers had anticipated failed to materialise


She was probably prepared to fend off the advances of a legion of desperate wannabes at live auditions for her new reality show.

But Katie Price was left flummoxed when barely a handful of of potential contestants turned up to try out for her latest television show at the Westfield shopping centre in Shepherd's Bush, London.

Amusingly, aides had been expecting hundreds of wannabes to queue for a spot on her find-a-model programme, Discovered By Katie Price, and put up rows of crowd control barriers.


Small gathering: The area around the stage at Westfield was relatively empty


However the glamour model later sat red-faced on an X Factor-style panel as organisers were reduced to begging random shoppers to join in.

A witness told The Sun newspaper: 'It was a disaster. She was on stage with her arms folded and a face like a slapped bottom.

'Her people were trying to tempt shoppers to take part - most of whom would never have passed for a model in a million years.'



What crowds?: The barriers outside Westfield remain empty


On the hotspot: A potential male model stands in front of Katie and her panel at Westfield in Shepherd's Bush, London


The show is being filmed for Sky Living and hopes to use Miss Price's knowledge, gained from fifteen years in the business, to find exciting new talent.

According to the website: 'Katie's on the hunt for "the next big thing" to sign to a new talent agency. The winner will get a year long contract, personal mentoring from Katie and loads of other fabulous prizes.'

The former glamour model was snapped with a huge sparkler on her wedding finger as she arrived at Westfield shopping yesterday, sparking rumours she may be engaged to her current beau Leandro Penna.

Argentinean model Penna, 25, who is thought to have bought the piece of jewellery for her, accompanied Price on her big day.



New bling: Katie Price was snapped wearing the new bing ring on her wedding finger today


Katie’s tweet this morning might have been aimed to dismiss the rumours though, as she posted: ‘Everyone keeps saying I have very big news to announce.

‘I’m confused I don’t know what you mean!’

As well as her new ring, the 33-year-old was also showing off a very heavy tan and large blonde wavy hair.

She dressed up in a little black skirt, tights and a white top alongside black strappy heels on her way to search for the UK’s hottest new model.

The mother-of three tweeted on her way to auditions: ‘I’ve been told very high standard of people auditioning today can’t wait to get there woo hoo.’

Leandro, who Katie has been dating since February this year, joined her for moral support today.

In love: Her Argentinian boyfriend Leandro Penna (right) joined her to the auditions in Westfield


Since sparking up their romance, Katie has already been tattooed on her ankle with the date that they met as a symbol of their love.

Discovered by Katie Price, which will air on Sky Living this autumn, will see Katie set up Black Sheep Management modelling agency to find a model who ‘will break the mould’.

She has started touring the UK to find the new boy or girl who is expected to front commercial marketing campaigns.


Pink lady: Katie drove her huge pink four wheel drive to the auditions today


The successful candidate is expected to have the ‘drive, passion and hunger to rival hers’, according to programme-makers.

Those who make the shortlist will be put through their paces in a series of challenges and learn about the industry in the show.

Talking about the show, Katie said: ‘This is a really personal mission for me. I know I’m a good businesswoman and if I find the right boy of girl, I would like to sign them to my new agency.’


Twice as nice: Peter Andre poses with the 2011 Premier Inn Celebrity Dad of the year award at Premier Inn Kensington Olympia


Meanwhile, Katie's first husband, Peter Andre, has been awarded the title of Celebrity Dad Of The Year.

The singer, 38, picked up the gong for the second year running beating the likes of Elton John and David Furnish - the first ever gay couple to be shortlisted for the award - Jonathan Ross and Michael McIntyre.

The Premier Inn Celebrity Dad of the Year rewards 'the celebrity dad who has impressed the nation by balancing a hectic public life with the demands of parenting", according its blurb.


Family outing: In April Peter took his two children and stepson Harvey to Cyprus while his ex-wife was on holiday in Argentina with new boyfriend Leandro Penna


Andre said: 'This means a huge amount to me as being a dad is my most important role.
'This feels so great. It was an honour to win last year but to still have the public's support and best wishes is a tremendous feeling.'

He also tweeted to followers to express his joy at winning.

Peter wrote: 'Thank you thank you thank you for all who voted . I have just won Celeb Dad of the year. really proud to be a dad to three awesome kids.

'Can't tell you how happy this has made me.Love you guys.Lots of awesome dads out there who all deserve recognition.This ones for you guys.'

He accepted the publicly-voted award at a Premier Inn in Kensington, west London, today.

Andre is father to Junior, five, and Princess, three, from his marriage to Katie Price, and stepfather to her son Harvey, nine.
