Kirstie Alley strips down to leotard on Dancing With The Stars as last three put best foot forward ahead of finale

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Star turn: Kirstie Alley dressed in a long brown dress for her second spin with Maksim Chmerkovskiy on Dancing With The Stars last night


She may have got the lowest score of the night.

But Dancing With The Stars contestant Kirstie Alley certainly turned heads with her raunchy routine, which saw her strip down to a leotard.

The former Cheers actress defied her 60 years as she put on the sultry show during a freestyle dance with partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy.


Stripped: But there was a purpose to her covered up attire as she soon ripped it off to reveal a skin-tight black leotard


Kirstie initially swept onto the dance floor conservatively dressed in a long brown gown for her second spin with Maksim.

But there was a purpose to her covered up attire - because she wasn't planning on wearing it for long.

The actress proceeded to circle the floor to show off her slimmer frame after ripping off her costume.

But the move failed to wow the judges, who gave her and Maksim 27 points.

The Dancing With The Stars finale is just around the corner, and all three remaining stars certainly brought their A game ahead of it, last night.

With each required to perform two dances, the couples chose two very different styles for both the judges choice and freestyle rounds.

Michael Jackson's children spruce up in their smartest clothes for weekly worship with grandmother

By JODY THOMPSON

Well turned out: Prince Jackson got his collar straightened by a family friend before he entered the church at Woodland Hills, Los Angeles yesterday


Their grandparents have always been strictly religious - and it seems that Michael Jackson's children are now having to go to church on Sundays as part of their new 'normal' life.

Paris 13, Prince, 14 and Blanket, nine, were seen looking incredibly smart as they accompanied their grandmother Katherine Jackson, their legal guardian, to a Jehovah's Witness chapel at the weekend for worship.

Jackson himself was a Christian and had pledged to bring up his children with God in their lives and it looks like his family is continuing his wishes.


Tied back: A suit-wearing Blanket Jackson had his hair in a ponytail before he headed into the church


Blanket - real name Prince Michael Jackson II - even had his long hair tied back in a ponytail as a mark of respect as they prepared to join the Woodland Hills Congregation in Los Angeles.

He is said to have his hair that length in tribute to his father who liked it long.
Blanket was dressed in a very grown-up white shirt with a dark suit and tie that looked like he had a bit of room to grow into.


We are family: Paris Jackson, left, looked equally smart as she joined her brothers Prince and Blanket for the service


Prince - real name Michael Joseph Jackson Jr - meanwhile was seen getting the collar of his smart two-piece neatened up by a family friend.

Paris - real name Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson - meanwhile was in a modest black long-sleeve shift dress with white embroidery around the hem, collar and cuffs, worn with sandals.

Their father the King Of Pop died on 25 June 2009 aged 50 and the whole Jackson clan have been mucking in since to make their lives as normal as possible.


No flies on him: Prince brushes the last bits of lint from his shoulder before he prepares to enter the church with a friend


As well as going to church in public for the first time, they now go to school.
And as reported by the Mail Online last week, they also go to afterschool drama class near their LA home.

In February, the children gave an interview on U.S. television and said they even fancied following their late father into showbusiness.

However, 80-year-old grandmother Katherine, and their aunt La Toya, 54, who's closely involved in their upbringing, want them to live as normal a life as possible before any attempt to launch themselves fully into the public eye.


Family fun: The children were seen leaving an afterschool drama class in LA last week


La Toya said in March: said of her nephews and niece in March: ‘They have gone to school and they really like it, so I’m very happy for them. It’s taught them something totally different about people and life.'

She also revealed they recently donated clothes to help Japanese earthquake and tsunami victims.

She said: They said they don’t mind doing and giving whatever. It was so sweet. They say, ‘Can we give our clothes to them?’ It’s really sweet.”

LaToya explained: 'My brother, their father, was just giving to everybody – $400 million of his personal money he gave to charity, and I support every penny of it.

'I think it’s very important for them to know what their father has done and to follow that legacy and to keep in their heart and mind to give always.'

After winning six gongs at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night, it looks like Justin Bieber has decided he deserves a holiday.

The 17-year-old pop star was pictured heading to the beach in Hawaii yesterday after jetting to Hawaii with girlfriend Selena Gomez.

Stripped to the waist, the Canadian star showed off his rock hard stomach in a pair of bathing shorts teamed with flip flops and white sunglasses.

Selena, meanwhile, was wearing a pink bikini top and Daisy Dukes, and was carrying a leopard print bag as she took a walk with her other half.

Als on show was a new tattoo on Bieber's toros under his arm, in addition to one he got when was 16 of a bird on his waistline.

Earlier the young couple were spotted arriving to Maui hand in hand after taking a flight from Los Angeles LAX.

Justin and Selena, 18, went fully public with their romance at the awards show in Las Vegas - sharing kisses and hugs in the audience.

The young lovebirds smooched as Bieber picked up his six awards and dominated the star-studded ceremony.

Gomez appeared to be making a good impression on her boyfriend's family, as she sat with her arm around Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette.

She was, however, notably absent from her beau's two acceptance speeches.
Bieber, who was wearing a gold tuxedo jacket, grinned as he took home six awards during Sunday's ceremony.


Holiday time: Justin and Selena arrived at the airport hand in hand for their romantic holiday together


The pint-size pop star shared a slightly awkward hug with Gomez as his name was read out as the winner of digital artist of the year.

He thanked his family, his fans, manager Scooter Braun and Usher - who signed the youngster to his record label and turned him into a superstar.

'Basically everyone who helped me get out of my hometown and live my dream,' he said.


Jet-set: The couple earlier took a flight out of Los Angeles, having returned from Las Vegas where they attended the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday


Young love: The pair were dressed casually as they arrived in Maui


Bieber and Gomez made up for their awkward moment as the former YouTube sensation was named the top new artist of the year.

Bieber leaned in for a passionate kiss with his girlfriend and she beamed with delight as she watch her man on stage.

The Canadian pop sensation thanked 'god' as he picked up his second award and paid tribute to his proud mother.

'Mom - you've been amazing. You've been travelling with me, putting up with all my crap,' he said.

Bieber also won awards for top pop album, top streaming artist, top song and top social media artist.

Meanwhile, the first trailer for Bieber's women's fragrance Someday has been revealed.


Up close and personal: Bieber kisses a young girl's neck after she uses his perfume in a new trailer for the scent called Someday


Flying high: In the trailer, the pair are seen floating around in the sky


The advert, which has been labelled 'ridiculous' by some, sees a young girl spray the fragrance on her neck, at which point Bieber appears next to her before whisking her up into the sky and flying through the air.

Talking about the fragrance recently, Bieber told WWD: 'Let’s be real, the way a girl smells is very important to a guy!

'I have such a deep connection with my fans, so creating a fragrance that I personally love is another way I can bring them closer to my world.'

'I missed my favourite meal': David Beckham tucks into pie and mash as soon as he jets into London.. but his boys like U.S. food

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Much missed dish: David Beckham enjoyed a meal of pie and mash when he landed in London earlier today. He posted a picture to his Facebook page


His boys have adapted well to their lives Stateside and appear to like nothing more than tucking into local foods.

But while David Beckham might love his life out in sunny L.A. when he is back home he likes nothing more than tucking into traditional British fare.

The footballer arrived in London this morning and wasted no time sourcing his most-desired local dish.


Delicious: David and Victoria Beckham's son Brooklyn, 12, was seen enjoying a slice of cheesy pizza as he watched his dad play for LA Galaxy


David posted a picture of himself enjoying the comfort food and said: 'Landed back in London this morning. Missed my favourite meal, so headed straight for some pie and mash. Heading upto Manchester tomorrow, can't wait.'

While Beckham might miss British food it seems that his boys have developed a taste for American food and were seen enjoying three different dishes earlier this week.

Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz were all seen tucking into some tasty treats which are virtually staples at American football games as they watched their dad play for LA Galaxy.

While Brooklyn, 12, appeared to be enjoying a slice of cheesy pizza, Romeo, eight, wolfed down some blue candy floss, and six-year-old Cruz seemed to like his hot dog.


Tasty: Romeo (left) and Cruz certainly seemed to be enjoying their candy floss


Meanwhile, as Victoria keeps busy with her fashion range during her last few weeks of pregnancy, David has also got some new fashion plans himself.

The 36-year-old sportsman has announced his plans to launch his own male underwear range.

David fronted the Emporio Armani underwear campaign in 2007, appearing on giant billboards and magazine spreads, which resulted in a doubling of profits for the Italian company in one year, from around £14.1 million to £38.7 million.


My favourite! Cruz, six, tucked into a hot dog as he watched the match


His Armani experience gave him insight into the fashion industry and he soon spotted a gap in the market for well-cut T-shirts and fitted boxer shorts.

He said: 'I have had the idea of doing a bodywear collection for some time now.

'The push to do something of my own really came as a result of my collaboration with Armani.

'It proved to me that there is a real market for good-looking, well-made men's bodywear.'

She was left reeling after the tragic loss of her baby five months into pregnancy earlier this month.

Moving forward: The leggy model put on a daring animal print dress for her first night out


Kelly ventured out with the support of friends after two weeks of laying low at her farmhouse in Kent, where she was being comforted by family and friends including fiancé Thom Evans.

But the beautiful brunette seemed determined to make her first tentative steps towards moving forward with her life, stepping out in a slinky pink animal-print dress and towering heels.

Kelly appeared to be enjoying her night out in London as she chatted to her girlfriends in the back of a cab, while fiancé Thom was nowhere to be seen.

After news that she had lost the child, friends described her as ‘devastated’. One said: ‘She’s at home and she’s being looked after by Thom and her mum Sandra.

‘There’s nothing you can say to anyone at a time like this – she just needs to be allowed some time alone to grieve.’

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Blown away: Spears and Rihanna wow the crowd with their on-stage kiss which was reminiscent of Spears and Madonna


It has been eight years since Britney Spears and Madonna shocked the world with their steamy onstage kiss on the lips at the MTV awards.

And last night it was a familiar scene as the 29-year-old received a smooch from Rihanna as they performed onstage at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas.

The 23-year old Barbados born singer planted the wet one on Spears's cheek after they performed her hit single S&M.


Remember this? Spears and Rihanna's kiss might have reminded fans of the kiss between Britney and Madonna at the MTV VMA's in 2003


Both women were suitably clad in bondage-style body suits as they took to the stage.
While Spears slipped into a black suit, Rihanna opted for white.

Spears's vigorous work-outs for her up-and-coming Femme Fatale tour proved to be paying off, with the blonde looking incredibly toned in her stage costume.


Raunchy start: Rihanna begins her performance sitting on a chair wielding a chain


While Spears lip-synched her parts in the song, her stage antics were nothing less than crowd pleasing and the pair certainly didn't disappoint with their very steamy performance.

Keeping within the bondage theme, Rihanna crawled on her knees while Spears commanded and dominated her with a long chain.


Chain reaction: Dominatrix Spears is surrounded by topless male dancers


Bondage: Spears dons an S&M style mask for some of the performance and Rihanna gets provocative on a chair


Spears also donned a bondage-style mask complete with bunny ears as she wrapped her wrists up in chains.

As always Rihanna turned up the heat on stage as she writhed around on the stage floor, while a pair of male hands attempted to grab her from underneath.

The Umbrella singer was also adorned with the kinky metal chains.



Pillow fight! Spears is playful with dancers on the stage as well as with Rihanna


The two women topped off their show with a sexy pillow fight, hitting the male dancers with the bedding until feathers flew in the air.

The kinky performance was certain to make one man happy.


Winning team: The crowd couldn't get enough of Spears and Rihanna


Spears's boyfriend Jason Trawick was watching from the sidelines.

The 39-year-old looked like the cat that got the cream as the couple posed for a happy snap backstage.

Spears proved that she was well and truly back to her best as she graced the stage for the second time in the night with rapper and singer/songwriter Nicki Minaj.

Minaj started out the performance with her song Super Bass, before Spears came on to sing her hit Till the World Ends.

Messing up: They add extra sex appeal to the performance with a raunchy pillow fight


Even though she appeared to be miming while Minaj sang live, Spears put more energy into her dance moves than she has in the past few months.

The act proved to be a successful practice before the duo tour together this summer
Minaj started the song wearing a skin-tight laddered white tank dress over matching leggings and a blue and white striped body suit.

The leotard matched her back-up singers, who acted as duplicates of Minaj, known for her quirky style.

In their blonde bobbed wigs they moved with the 26-year-old as she rocked the stage.
But it was Spears who stole the spotlight in a her tight black minidress worn underneath a cropped leather jacket and strappy stilettos.

Enjoying the show was Justin Bieber who was sitting in the crowd with his girlfriend, Selena Gomez.

The young couple were reminiscent of the Justin Timberlake and Spears of yesteryear, as they posed together smiling.

And Selena Gomez affectionately rested her hand on Justin Bieber's leg as they both smiled for the cameras.

The 17-year-old singing sensation looked every bit the pop star in his gold and black tuxedo jacket, while Gomez,18, was the sexy starlet in her slinky black gown.


What a show: Ne-yo and rapper Pitball also performed at the awards with a group of scantily-clad dancers


Gravity defying: Cee Lo Green wore a glitzy suit for his performance which saw him and his piano overturn on stage


Beyonce also gave a show-stopping performance, steaming up the stage as she slipped into a risqué bodysuit to perform her new song Run the World (Girls).

During the night there were also performances by the Black Eyed Peas, Ke$ha, Cee Lo Green, Keith Urban and Neil Diamond, who won the Icon Award, among others.

Finalists and winners were determined by their rank on the Billboard charts and their 'social and streaming activity'.

The show was hosted by Ken Jeong who plays Mr. Chow from The Hangover and the up-coming The Hangover II.
