Summer loving! Michelle Keegan and Max George lead the charge of couples looking v. smitten in the sun at V Festival

By Jody Thompson





Smitten: The Wanted's Max George and his fiancée Michelle Keegan were hand-in-hand in the VIP area of the V Festival in Stafforshire yesterday





There can be few more pleasant ways to spend a weekend than cuddled up with a loved one watching a host of top music acts in the warm sunshine with free booze on tap.



So it was no surprise that seemingly half the celebrities couples in the UK appeared to have made a beeline for V Festival weekend to hang out and hold hands in the VIP area, both at the Staffordshire and Chelmsford legs.



Most loved-up of all however were Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan, 24, and her boyband fiancé Max George, 22, from The Wanted.



Festival chic: Michelle was sporting unusual lace-up wellies to the al fresco music fandango



What bands? The couple found their own entertainment backstage rather than venturing into the main arena to watch the other acts





Michelle was clearly raring to go, and Tweeted beforehand: 'I'm already to go...So excited!!! I might sleep in my wellies! X'



Then first thing this morning meanwhile, she exclaimed: 'V FEST!!!!!!!!!!!! X'



Michelle's wellies - although unnecessary on the bone-dry site in Staffordshire yesterday - were rather unusual lace-ups versions.



Smitten: The engaged couple only had eyes for each other at the bash



Refreshment: The pair were enjoying some drinks in the sunshine in the VIP area



Great day out: Michelle had friends to keep her company when Max was busy working too





She'd teamed them with Daisy Dukes, a black bandeau top, straw trilby, aviator shades and a denim shirt, though that was soon tied round her waist because of the heat.



However, a large part of the soap star's excitement was seeing her beloved again, Max George from boyband The Wanted.



He was just as pleased to see her too, posting up a picture of them cudding up in the VIP bar backstage last night clutching paper pint cups of Carling lager.





Magic time: Harry Potter star Rupert Grint was spotted in the VIP area at the Chelmsford leg of V Festival with a female friend



Girls and boys: Pixie Lott meanwhile and her boyfriend Oliver Cheshire were together in the VIP area at Chelmsford today



Festival friends: Russell Tovey and Michelle Ryan were hanging out together at the Virgin Media Louder Lounge at V in Chelmsford





The Wanted played the Staffordshire leg of the festival last night at Weston Park, and played again today at the Chelmsford leg at Hylands Park.



The boyband were surprisingly low down the bill on the Arena Stage, playing after Dionne Bromfield and before Eliza Doolittle, with the Saturdays, Hurts, Big Audio Dynamite, Mark Ronson and Calvin Harris on afterwards.



However, the benefits of being on in the afternoon of course is having plenty of time to get stuck into the free bar afterwards...



Love you: The Only Way Is Essex stars Sam Faier and Harry Derbridge cuddle up to Stacey Solomon





In fact, there were a plethora of couples looking loved-up in the sun at the festival - even just platonic friends.



Sherlock star Russell Tovey and his former EastEnders friend Michelle Ryan had their arms around each other and sweethearts Rochelle Wiseman from The Saturdays and her JLS beau Marvin Humes looked as smitten as ever in the Mahiki VIP area in Chelmsford.



Of course, Rochelle was working, as her band were on the bill of the bash, but Marvin was just there as the dutiful boyfriend.



Feeling the love: Ex Corrie and Strictly Come Dancing star Tina O'Brien and boyfriend Adam Crofts were spotted backstage at V Festival at Weston Park yesterday





Harry Potter star Rupert Grint was there with a mystery female friend, and Pixie Lott was also at the bash with her boyfriend Oliver Cheshire.



The Girls And Boys star looked incredibly cute in a short white playsuit covered in daisies and gorgeous gold brogues, while Oli looked trendy in a trilby with beige trousers and desert boots.



Also hitting the backstage VIP area at Chelmsford - and hopefully venturing out amongst the general public to actually see some bands - were Myleene Klass, Ralf Little, former Hollyoaks star Hollie-Jay Bowes.



BFFs: Nick Grimshaw, Caroline Flack and Jameela Jamil were having fun at the Virgin Media Louder Lounge at V Festival in Chelmsford today





Also on her own without husband Wayne was Coleen Rooney.



Other acts playing at the Essex leg of the bash meanwhile today include Primal Scream, Pendulum, Manic Street Preachers, the Script and Rihanna, with Eminem headlining.



The Staffordshire leg meanwhile closes tonight with Jessie J, Tinie Tempah, Plan B, Bruno Mars, Kaiser Chiefs, Dizzee Rascal and headliners Arctic Monkeys.

The Only Way Is.... to hold tight! Sam Faiers and Harry Derbidge are flying high at V Festival

By Alanah Eriksen





As two of the stars of The Only Way Is Essex, Sam Faiers and Harry Derbidge are known for their high-maintenance lifestyle.



But the reality TV stars showed they know how to let their hair down as they enjoyed a reverse bungee ride at the Essex part of the twin-site V Festival.



Glamour model Sam, 20, and performing arts student Harry, 17, screamed in delight as they were hurled vertically around 50-70 metres high in air while seated in a cage.

Nervous: Performing art student Harry looks worried as he holds Sam's hand before the reverse bungee takes off





Their friends and co-stars BIllie Faiers and Kirk Norcross looked on from the ground as the duo enjoyed their adrenalin rush.



The pair looked dressed for the part with their coloured wellies and pack-a-macks, which they ended up using when the heavens opened.



The day was clearly quite boozy for the gang, with Sam Tweeting this morning: 'Just woke up in bed with Harry and Charlotte! 3 in a bed and the little on said! Need food ! Feeling hungover.'



Check out my wellies: Derbidge shows off his special 'Shuuut up' wellies



In the party mood: Sam and Harry joined The Only Way Is Essex co-stars Kirk Norcross (far right) and Billie Faiers (in pink top)



And then the rain came down: The pair were well prepared with their macs when it started raining





But after a fry-up to help them conquer their hangovers, the pair were preparing to head back for Day 2.



The pair didn't seem to mind missing their former co-star and Harry's cousin Amy Childs, who is currently in the Celebrity Big Brother house.



The TOWIE stars were just a few of dozens of celebrities at the Essex leg of the twin-site V Festival, with a second venue in Staffordshire.



Festival fun: The Faiers sisters, Harry and a friend pose up in the Virgin VIP lounge



Chic: Billie Piper at the Essex festival (left) while WAG Coleen Rooney brought a group of friends to the Staffordshire leg of the festival



Lookalikes: Coleen marched through the VIP area in Weston Park with a group of girlfriends all wearing similar black Hunter wellies and sunglasses





Actress Billie Piper, the cast of The Inbetweeners and Harry Potter star Rupert Grint were among the VIP guests at Hylands Park in Chelmsford, Essex, yesterday.



Mother-of-one Piper, 28, looked gorgeous in a pale peach-coloured dress, black leather jacket and leopard-print ballet slippers and she watched Clare Maguire and KT Tunstall.



Amy Winehouse's goddaughter Dionne Bromfield and Ellie Goulding also took to the stage at Weston Park in South Staffordshire and left fans screaming for more.



New couples: Olympian swimmer Rebecca Adlington and new boyfriend Harry Needs and ex-Coronation Street actress Tina O'Brien with Adam Crofts both attended the Staffordshire festival





Meanwhile, up north in Staffordshire's Weston Park, Coleen Rooney was also among the stars watching and looked relaxed as she drank from a Red Bull cup while sitting in a group of friends.



The 25-year-old wife of Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney wore black Hunter wellies - identical to her four friends - and similar to the ones she wore at Glastonbury in June.



She paired the gumboots with a white T-shirt over denim shorts and kept her eyes safe from the sun with black sunglasses.



Coronation Street stars Michelle Keegan, 24, and Tina O'Brien, 28, also looked dressed for the part in Staffs.



Boy time: Lads Joe Thomas, Simon Bird and Blake Harrison from The Inbetweeners catching some sun



Rain and shine: Joe Thomas with Hannah Tointon and Elen Rivas who came prepared for rain



Salon time: Harry Derbidge and Billie Faiers took advantage of the services and, right, Rupert Grint





They both wore gumboots, Tina in short black ones with her high socks peeping out the top and a short white dress with a head band over her blond hair as she strolled the park with her new boyfriend Adam Crofts.



Keegan, who plays Tina McIntyre in the soap, started with a denim shirt which she wore as a dress before stripping off to reveal denim shorts and a black printed boob tube.



She wore a hat and aviator sunglasses and laced-up gumboots on her feet.



The gang's all here: Hollyoaks co-stars Emmett J. Scanlan, Claire Cooper, Andy Moss, Bronagh Waugh, Jessica Forrest had a laugh



Tanned Vs Pale: Hollyoaks' actress Alice Barlow (left) and Emmerdale star Sophie Powles were going for different looks





Inbetweeners actors Joe Thomas, Simon Bird, Blake Harrison and Hannah Tointon took a break from promoting their new movie to listen to the music in Chelmsford.



Meanwhile, Olympian swimmer Rebecca Adlington looked loved up with boyfriend Harry Needs in the VIP area at Staffordshire.



Other stars at the two festival legs included Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint, Peter Andre's ex Elen Rivas, Emmerdale actress Sophie Powles, former Footballers' Wives actress Sarah Barrand, celebrity hairdresser James Brown and Noel Gallagher's ex-wife Meg Mathews.



Back to the day job: Tulisa Contostavlos performed with her band N-Dubz just hours before her X Factor judging debut was screened on ITV



Raunchy: Rihanna was at her sizzling best in tiny hotpants and what looked like a customised Union Flag





Also in attendance was comedian Leigh Francis, looking remarkably like Where's Wally in a red and white striped T-shirt and singer Jade Jones, fiancé of former Spice Girl Emma Bunton.



Among the stars performing included new X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos, who sang with her group N-Dubz.



Sitting pretty: Jessie J was carried onto the stage due to her broken leg and performed from a chair





She rocked the Staffordshire leg of the V Festival in a pair of spray-on black jeans and an unusual armour-style top just hours before her X Factor debut was screened on ITV.



Jessie J was carried onto the stage with her leg still in a cast after breaking it three months ago.



She sang some of her biggest hits including Do It Like A Dude and Price Tag, dedicating her one hour set to all 'those who have forgotten their suncream'.



Star power: Dionne Bromfield, who recently lost her godmother Amy Winehouse, and Ellie Goulding



Scarlett lady: Clare Maguire performs live on the Arena stage



Drawing a crowd: Thousands of festivalgoers headed for the main stage to watched Bruno Mars

Anger as Kate hailed as pro-anorexia role model on U.S. websites

By Katie Nicholl





Even slimmer: Kate, pictured in London five years ago (left) and while on a tour of Canada after her wedding earlier this year





Like most brides, Kate Middleton lost weight in the build-up to her wedding in April.



But the Duchess of Cambridge has now become a ‘role model’ on controversial pro-anorexia websites because of her continued weight loss.



Once a healthy size 10-12, Kate, whose waist is now so tiny she managed to make super-thin Hollywood star Nicole Kidman look dumpy during a recent dinner event in California, is now estimated to be a UK size 4, known as size 0 in the States.





While the Duchess has always been slim, sources have told The Mail on Sunday that much of her wardrobe has been altered because she has become more slender.



Yesterday friends said the Duchess will be ‘horrified’ to learn that she is being hailed as a success story on ‘pro ana’ internet sites.



One told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Kate is very slender but she certainly doesn’t have an eating disorder.



‘She’ll be horrified that she is on these sites. Yes, she has lost weight but that’s largely down to the stress she has been under and all the travelling she has done recently.’



The Duchess’s athletic sister Pippa, who runs marathons, also features on some of the ‘pro-ana’ sites but it is Kate whose weight loss is the subject of forum debates with young women wanting to know the secret to her shrinking waist.



One post asks: ‘Is anyone else sort of getting hacked off by how much weight Kate Middleton is losing?



Athletic: Pippa Middleton is also mentioned on some of the pro-anorexia sites





‘I mean I’m happy for her and all, getting married . . . but I am very jealous. I swear she used to be really quite chubby during her uni days.’



The sites also chart Kate’s weight loss with photographs from her university days to more recent pictures of her on tour when she is noticeably slimmer.



Celebrities such as Victoria Beckham and Mary-Kate Olsen are also cited as role models on the sites.



While a spokesman for the Duchess declined to comment, the eating disorders organisation Beat described the websites as ‘dangerous’.



‘They frequently encourage people to believe that eating disorders are a lifestyle choice and not the serious mental illness that they truly are,’ said a spokesman.

That's a wrap! Jedward invent new dance while dressed in bandages for 'mummy task' as Mohamed Al Fayed makes guest appearance in the house

By JODY THOMPSON





Scroll down to see the Jedward 'mummy dance'...



Dance like an Egyptian: Jedward try and invent a new dance after being convinced that today's 'mummy task' would involve some choreography





Jedward were not so much walking as dancing like Egyptians today on Celebrity Big Brother as housemates were forced to wear bandage-like mummy costumes.



However, the contestants were initially left in the dark as to why they'd been dolled up in fancy dress as Big Brother failed to reveal what the actual task was.



As a result, hyperactive John and Edward decided that the mission must be to do a little dance - so they started putting together their own unique choreography.



Dancing to their own beat: The 19-year-old twins appeared to have their own shared inner beatbox



In tune: The pair appeared to have perfected a routine as they threw shapes together





Their interpretation of what it meant to be a mummy unsurprisingly involved jumping around a lot, as fellow bandaged-up housemates Darryn Lyons, Bobby Sabel and Paddy Doherty looked on laughing hysterically.



Ever practical Paddy however chimed in asking how they knew what the task was going to be.



He queried: 'How do you know what we're gonna do? Are we going to be doing what you're doing?'



Undead: The housemates were bandaged up further and then had to rise up on the sound of the gong



Special guest: Real-life Egyptian Mohamed Al Fayed was in the house to start the competition





Jedward exclaimed: 'We're telepathic! Or else we're probably going to just bury each other.'



They then had another think, and exclaimed: 'Oh my god, oh my god, someone's clearly going to be in a mummy, and we're probably going to have to unbandage someone then we'll find it's another housemate!'



The housemates had earlier moaned when they put on their costumes, with Tara Reid moaning: 'I look like I'm wearing a top hat.'



Shuuuutup! Amy Childs didn't look very happy at covering up her red locks with a bandage hat



Celebrities unwrapped: All the 11 housemates had to break free of their bandages and stand up as part of the task



Priorities: Tara Reid made sure she still put on her jewellery over the bandages





However, they all got stuck in, even putting on make-up to make themselves look more mummified.



After more bandaging however, they were instructed to lie in the CBB garden.



Former Harrods owner and real-life Egyptian Mohamed Al Fayed then made a guest appearance in the house as the task was finally revealed.



Helping hand: A laughing Al Fayed tries to help up a stricken housemate





In a game that owed a little to escapology, once Al Fayed - dressed in full pharaonic regalia - banged a gong, they had to break free of their bandages and stand up, with the last to rise from the dead deemed the loser.



To mass hilarity all round, Al Fayed proclaimed: 'Mummifed housemates, on hearing the gong, you may begin to rise.'



However, Amy Childs and Kerry Katona are laughing so hard, they don't seem to be able to even stand up.



The live episode of Celebrity Big Brother is on Channel Five tonight at 9.15pm.
