Stunning Penelope Cruz, who has recently launched her own clothes range at Mango, was picked up yesterday from her Hollywood Hills home and escorted by security to her awaiting limo. As she drove off the car stopped in the middle of the street and caused a bit of a pile up. She then got out of the limo and individually spoke to each member of paparazzi and ask them not to take pictures of her coming out of her home, because she didn't want anyone to know where she lived. In light of Uma Thurman's stalker of two years being caught, Cruz's actions seem fair enough.

Jeez! As if having your face on the cover of a magazine isn't enough, you have to throw a big party to tell everyone about it! Talk about an ego. But I'm sure Eva Mendes was dragged kicking and screaming down the red carpet by her PR people. Not.

Hey hey what's going on here? Has Rihanna lost her usual smiling self and decided to take up on a Posh stylee' frown? Lets hope the not. 'The older than her years' starlet was spotted again looking quite fashionable as she left her hotel. She was heading to her concert at the Nokia Theater in New York. Pictures: Demis Maryannakis

You've gotta love Dave Grohl. I reckon he could be the happiest and most chilled man in rock. I don't think I have ever seen him without a massive grin, and have you ever seen him with a big titted lass while starting fights, getting drunk and abusing photographers/passers by, hitting the headlines with bad behavior, looking shockingly rude and moody on a documentary or interview, or even been involved in a sex tape with drugs? I haven't. A big cheer for the lovely Dave Grohl! (I have a fear some of you are about to prove me wrong! :-() Pictures: Demis Maryannakis

Forget partying with polished Paris Hilton and Hollywood with its perfect nails, hair, tan and blondettes, everyone (okay just the starlets) wants to party in the UK!. Honest! I mean, how can you beat the turn out at Punk club last night in gritty Soho? We had the brilliantly witty Lily Allen in a Noddy cartoon dress, Kelly Osbourne looking like a doll with her rosy cheeks, one of the Olsen witch sisters (comically no one could tell which one!). Then Gavin Rossdale's daughter Daisy Lowe, and the one and only Jennifer 'I get my kit off far too much' Ellison. Sadly beehive Amy Winehouse, Kate Moss and Sienna Miller weren't there to top off the rock lot.

The beautiful pint sized singer Kylie Minogue, has returned to Paris for a medical exam. The star, who has been battling breast cancer, went to an x-ray center at Thorton Hospital. Afterwards she headed for lunch with pals at the "Cafe De Flore", before hitting the shops, including Smalto and Yves Saint Laurent. Nothing like food, friends and shopping to relax!
