Glowing: Amanda Holden put a protective hand on her baby bump - but kept it under wraps - as she arrived for Britain's Got Talent auditions


She's finally able to be open about her pregnancy after months of secrecy.

But Amanda Holden declined to give fans a glimpse of her baby bump as she arrived for the first auditions for the new series of Britain's Got Talent in London today.

The 39-year-old, who revealed she is expecting a baby boy in March, covered up her burgeoning belly in a fuchsia coat with a giant bow strategically placed at her midriff.

Showing pregnancy isn't affecting her passion for fashion, Holden teetered in a pair of towering patent Mary Jane heels and carried a baby pink quilted Chanel handbag.

Writing on her Twitter ahead of the auditions at the Hammersmith Apollo, Holden revealed new judge David Hasselhoff would not be joining her on the panel and Louis Walsh would be covering for the ex-Baywatch star.

She said: 'Getting ready for BGT! Stomach churning! Micheal and Louis today. Think The Hoff is still "giving his Hook".'

Once inside, she Tweeted: 'Five mins until we're on stage! Micheal is pacing, I'm eating and Louis is checking his quiff.'

New judge, comedian McIntyre was given a huge welcome by the thousands of auditionees queuing outside, who chanted his name as he entered the building.

Despite expecting to give birth to her second child in March, Holden insisted it would not affect her work commitments for Britain's Got Talent and starring in the new West End production of Shrek: The Musical.

Holden will play Princess Fiona at Drury Lane when the show opens in May.

The former Cutting It star will film the Britain's Got Talent Series 5 auditions over the next weeks, before returning to the judging panel in late May in time for the live shows.

The blonde TV star announced on Sunday that she and husband Chris Hughes, 37, were expecting their second child together.

She explained she waited so long to announce her pregnancy after she tragically suffered a miscarriage last year.

The couple, who married in December 2008, are already parents to daughter Alexa, aka Lexi, who turns five later this month.

Writing on her Twitter page on Sunday, she said: 'Just to let you know. I am 6 months pregnant with a baby boy!! Have had to keep it quiet until now!'

In a statement on her official website, Holden revealed her secret heartbreak last year after losing her unborn child.

'Their delight is increased by the fact that last year she tragically lost a baby.
'As they are sure everyone will understand they needed to get the all clear from the doctor before they shared their very happy news.'

In an interview last year, Holden admitted she had started getting broody.

She said: 'I'd love to have more children. I'm 39 so I'd be very lucky, I've got lots of friends who have waited too long. If it happens it happens. But I'm blessed with one.'

The former Cutting It actress married music executive Hughes at Babington House in Somerset in December 2008 after a five year courtship.

The couple announced their engagement in December 2004, but delayed their wedding after Holden fell pregnant with Alexa, who was born in January 2006.

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Beach house: Lindsay Lohan is moving into this light and airy beach house in the Venice area of Los Angeles


Lindsay Lohan is clearly hoping that the new year means a new start.

The troubled 24-year-old is reported to have left rehab today after a 90 day stay in the Betty Ford Clinic and is also ready to move into a plush new beach side pad.

The star is said to be renting the 3,100 square foot house in in the Venice Beach area of Los Angeles for just under $7,100 a month.


Luxury: Lindsay's new house boasts four bedrooms with large windows and fantastic views


However, the house is not yet ready for Lindsay to move in, so she is said to be staying at an 'upmarket LA hotel,' according to Radar.

The house comes with four bedrooms and four bathrooms and is said to be situated across the street from her friend Samantha Ronson.


New start: Lohan was released from rehab today


The house comes with four bedrooms and four bathrooms and is said to be situated across the street from her friend Samantha Ronson.

She and Ronson both used to reside in the same apartment building in the West Hollywood area of Los Angeles, but Ronson moved out last year.

Lindsay left the rehabilitation clinic, three months after she was ordered back for treatment by a judge after failing a drugs test.

She served the rehab stint in connection with her 2007 DUI conviction, after repeatedly failing to meet the terms of her probation.

This led to two stints in jail and two in rehab last year.


Modern: Lindsay's new home features plenty of open spaces and a trendy wooden staircase


Plush: Lindsay is said to be renting the pad, built in 2007, for around $7,100 a month


However, the star has signalled that she fully intends to turn over a new leaf.

She tweeted on Saturday:'Today is the first day of the rest of my life "The future depends on what we do in the present." -Mahatma Gandhi... One step at a time....'

Meanwhile Lindsay's father Michael Lohan told the CBS Early Show that his daughter was indeed turning his life around.

'It was pancakes! Oh my gosh! [Justin is] one of my best friends…' she mused.

Selena also explained her feelings for Justin, describing him as 'family'.

'I feel like a big sister now, because I want to protect him.

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Smartly dressed: Michael looked fresher than in recent weeks and Catherine looked glamourous in a pair of black leather trousers and large black sunglasses


After being diagnosed with cancer four months ago, Michael Douglas has just seen the end of a difficult year.

But as the new year begins, the actor is now facing a tense wait to see if his treatment has been successful.

The Hollywood actor, 66, put his worries to one side to spend some quality time with wife Catherine Zeta Jones and their two children Dylan, 10, and seven year old Carys.


Waiting: Michael Douglas is awaiting news on his cancer treatment


The family enjoyed a meal out in New York together after arriving back in the city before the new year celebrations.

Michael was pictured outside the family home with his brood looking healthier than in recent weeks.

The actor was looking well-groomed with his hair brushed back, his face clean-shaven and colour flushed his cheeks.

Meanwhile Catherine, 42, went make-up free and covered her face with her hat and sunglasses as she sat in the back seat of their car.

It emerged Douglas was battling throat cancer back in August and he has been undergoing gruelling chemo and radiotherapy over the past few months.

He recently revealed he will discover in January whether the treatment has been successful.


Homeward bound: The veteran star was looking healthier than he has done in recent months. He'll discover the results of his cancer treatment this month


Douglas recently revealed in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter - his first since undergoing treatment - that he will learn in January if the cancer has been eliminated. Doctors have told him this type of cancer has an 80 per cent cure rate.

‘So I didn’t dig into the bottom of my soul to see what I could see.


Fighting chance: Doctors have given Douglas an 80 per cent chance of beating the illness


'The level of chemo, the amount they’re giving you, combined with radiation, was the max they could do in that period of time. It’s amazing that they almost have to try and kill you to bring you back.’

Douglas has been spending lost of quality time with his family over the past month.

The veteran actor celebrated Thanksgiving in Florida with Catherine and their children where they visited Disney World as well as enjoying a magical day out at The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando Resort.

So where HAS Amanda Holden been hiding her baby bump?

By GLENDA COOPER

When Amanda Holden announced yesterday that she was six months pregnant, her fans were delighted — but also astonished. In the past six months the Britain’s Got Talent star has never looked more svelte. So where on earth has she been hiding her baby bump?

In fact, as body-conscious mums will know, it is possible to hide the fact you’re in the family way well into the second trimester (even if you are feeling alternately sick and wanting to eat the entire contents of the nearest cake shop!).

All it needs is a bit of help from Mother Nature, sensible eating habits and some clever planning.

Next, as Amanda has proven, it’s all in the styling. First, don’t make your waistline the focus, advises Tiffany London, founder of the Tiffany Rose maternity wear brand, who has dressed pregnant celebs such as Myleene Klass and Emma Bunton.

‘Go for high-quality fabrics like jersey that have a bit of give,’ she advises.
Don’t dress like you’re pregnant, either. Avoid Princess Diana-type smocks, yoga pants and slouchy maternity jeans.


Details and accessories are key, too. Amanda has used frills, large prints and jewellery. An unusual necklace can also distract people’s attention.


‘A long necklace or a scarf, a bit more décolletage — and it’s amazing how it draws the eye up,’ says Tiffany. General grooming helps as well. If you’re a believer in full-on slap, then carry on with the red lipsticks and blow-dries.

And finally: the truth is, weight gain is an inevitable — and healthy — side-effect of pregnancy.

But when it comes to being an undercover, yet stylish mum-to-be, Amanda’s proved she’s got talent.

Meet the real Happy Feet! Baby penguin can't contain his excitement as snow starts to fall

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Full of the joys: The penguin dances around the compound, much to the bemusement of his friends


It's normally little children that get excited at the sight of their first snowflake.

As permanent residents of the chilly, snow-covered South Pole, you'd think for penquins it would all be a bit, well, mundane.

Not so for this little chap who clearly couldn't control his excitement as the white stuff started to fall.

Looking like the real-life star of animated film Happy Feet, the baby penguin tears up and down while his bemused friends look on.

Or maybe he's a fan of penguin-suited dance legend Fred Astaire, who often went through his paces wearing a top hat and tails.

The clip was posted on YouTube two days ago and has already attracted thousands of views.


Inspiration: Is our dancing penguin a film fan? If so he might have seen Happy Feet or one of Fred Astaire's many films


In the Happy feet film, Mumble the penguin is cast as an outsider because he has a terrible singing voice. But he soon becomes the star of the show when he discovers he has talent for something none of his friends has seen before - tap dancing.

Redhead ambition: X Factor 2010 star Cher stepped out with dyed red hair curled into ringlets and teased into a Mohican style do in South Woodford


She was recently named the most talked about new celebrity of the year.

X Factor 2010 star Cher stepped out with dyed red hair curled into ringlets and teased into a Mohican style do.


Copycat: Cher wore a curled up-do which was very similar to a style once worn by singer Rihanna


It was very similiar to a head-turning look sported by singer Rihanna, who memorably performed on the show late last year.

And like Rihanna, Cher has experimented with a series of looks during her time on the X Factor, and even reportedly clashed with the show's stylists.

The 17-year-old singer recently topped an internet list drawn up by media agency PHD based on Google searches, Facebook mentions, Twitter followers and Youtube views.

She beat X Factor rivals One Direction and even the winner Matt Cardle to top the survey.

Cher was seen arriving at club Funky Mojoes in Essex for an appearance, one of a number she has done since leaving the show.

Although she has been playing to smaller audiences that she has been used to, it seems that may not remain the case for much longer.

The young singer has also been tipped for serious chart success alongside will.i.am. who has revealed the pair have made a single together.

The Black Eyed Peas star tweeted: ‘The day after the last xfactor…cher loyd (sic)and I went in the studio and made a mega smasher.’

He also posted: ‘@CherLloyd hey cher, when should we release the song we recorded in London???...(It’s a smasher)

Oprah Winfrey's big moment arrives! Her new network debuts to mostly positive reviews

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER


Long awaited moment! The Oprah Winfrey Network launched yesterday after being delayed twice while its cost ballooned to a reported $189 million


The ratings are not huge, but Oprah Winfrey's new round-the-clock cable network seems to be a hit with the viewers who are tuning in.

After years of planning and months of hype, the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) launched yesterday across the U.S.

Buried in the middle of a holiday weekend, though airing on the numerically catchy date 1-1-11, OWN arrived free of glitz with a one-hour preview special hosted
by the talk show queen.

She offered a hearty overview of the live-your-best-life fare which she will curate across the network's schedule in the days ahead and further down the line.

'I wanted to take the ideals of great television that we've established on the Oprah show and bring them to you through a variety of new shows 24/7', Winfrey said.

Every minute of this network has been hand-selected by me for you, the viewers.'
Many viewers seem to like what they see.

'I watched a few of the OWN shows yesterday and was quite pleased with what I saw', GC from New Jersey wrote on the New York Times arts beat blog.

As for the professional reviewers, Matt Zoller Seitz of Salon.com said: 'We will gaze upon it with awe and affection, and marvel at the sweet magnificence of its founder.'


Oprah's introduction: The talk show queen introduces her new network


Caryn James of Indiewire.com wrote: 'Beneath the inspirational advice that often sounds like hot air... Oprah has a bedrock belief in reason, intelligence and education. That’s what makes her so valuable and OWN so promising.'

This spring, Winfrey ends her wildly successful weekday syndicated daytime TV talk show after 25 years.

But premièring Saturday night on OWN, "Behind the Scenes: The Oprah Show Final Season" is a 25-episode reality series that will give viewers an intimate look at the Oprah show as it draws to a close.

In her OWN preview special, Winfrey also touted Master Class as a series that will spotlight prominent people who include Diane Sawyer, Simon Cowell, Jay-Z and Condoleezza Rice.

Not only is Oprah the pinnacle of TV fame, she is also a formidable businesswoman, ranking last year as the highest-paid US celebrity with an income of $315m.


Sarah Ferguson stars in the six-part documentary Finding Sarah on OWN, which will follow her as she tries to bounce back from her cash-for-favours scandal


New project: Oprah looked happy and relaxed as she presented her show


But there are no guarantees that her mix of emotional empathy and homespun wisdom can sustain 24-hour, 365-day programming.

Executives at the channel say the goal is to exploit Winfrey’s popularity but it won’t be all Oprah, all the time.

‘What if I could take every hero who inspired me, every lesson that motivated me, every opportunity that was ever given to me and give it to you,’ says Oprah, who will be the OWN chairman.

There is little reason to think OWN, which is co-owned by Discovery Communications, will not succeed in the crowded cable TV field.

Her last start-up, the magazine ‘O’ sells 2.4m copies a month. In addition, she has a satellite radio company and 4.6m Twitter followers.

OWN initially will be available in more than 80 million homes.

Why single women go for married men: We take our cue from others when deciding who's attractive

By FIONA MACRAE

Mate poaching: Perhaps the phenomenon is why Angelina Jolie could not resist Brad Pitt despite his being seemingly happily married


It is a worrying question which has crossed many a married woman’s mind: Does my best friend have a crush on my husband?

According to scientists, her concern could well be justified.
Studies show that when deciding if someone is attractive, we take our cue from others.

This, as some wives already know to their cost, makes a married man a better catch than a bachelor.

The phenomenon, known as ‘mate poaching’, might perhaps explain why Angelina Jolie could not resist Brad Pitt despite his being seemingly happily married to Jennifer Aniston.

In a round-up of research on the science of attraction, psychologist Anthony Little said female birds and fish find a male more attractive if they have already seen him in the company of another female.


Old flame: According to the survey, women find men who are attached more attractive - as Angelia may have found Brad, when she was with Jenifer Aniston


Allowing others to carry out the mating process speeds up the dating game.
And the phenomenon extends to the human world.

A study found that single women shown photographs of men set their sights on those who were said to be in a relationship.

By contrast, married women were much more interested in men said to be single.

Another study found that men were rated more desirable when they were pictured surrounded by women than when alone or with other men, the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B reports.

And on a girls’ night out, a single woman should make sure she stands next to a less attractive friend.

Studies show that if the company a girl keeps is on the plain side, it makes her seem all the more appealing.

Taking to Twitter, Paris told her fans about her 'fun' but 'mellow' New Year.

'Just getting ready for bed. Had a mellow, but fun New Year's Eve. Hope everyone had a great night! HAPPY NEW YEARS! Love Paris xoxo.'

In an earlier posting she complained about losing her phone on Thursday night, writing: 'Sucks not having a phone on New Year's Eve. :( So since I can't text anyone. Just wanted to Twitter to you all HAPPY NEW YEARS! Love Paris.'

And reassuring her friends she was not ignoring them, she explained: 'Friends - In case you texted me and I didn't answer, it's not cause I'm ignoring you. It's cause I lost my phone last night. So brutal. :('
However, when her younger sister Nicky, 27, turned up to the party, the socialite did manage to muster a smile.

Paris donned a short white dress with sequins, teamed with a Happy New Year feathered headband.

Meanwhile Nicky poured her figure into an asymmetrical black and white dress.

That's better: But she appeared to cheer up once her sister Nicky arrived with both of the siblings wearing matching Happy New Year feathered headbands


Perhaps Paris's legal battle with Hairtech International - a brand of extensions she was contracted to endorse - was also weighing heavy on her mind.

TMZ reports that Hairtech International recently adjusted its lawsuit to the amount of $70 million instead of the original $35 million in profit compensation.

The company claims that Paris did not live up to her end of the bargain in promoting and wearing the hair extensions, costing them millions in lost profit.

She allegedly even wore a different company’s hair extensions when she had agreed to promote Hairtech’s merchandise.
