The covers just keep on rolling in for Emma Watson. Here she is for British Elle's August '09 issue, sporting an entirely different look to her recent Teen Vogue cover. According to stylists, they wanted her to look "tough but young", with an obvious overkill of eye liner. While it's refreshing to see the Harry Potter icon showing off a more grown-up, edgy side, the jury is still out for me on this particular shoot. How about you?

As tributes for Michael Jackson continue to pour in, Sir Paul Smith made the ultimate gesture to the late King of Pop during his closing menswear show in Paris yesterday.

It was a happy and celebratory moment as the audience clapped and bopped along. Catch sight of grey-haired Paul getting down to MJ by clicking play on the video above - fun!

We have already given you a small taster of Mischa Barton's new series, The Beautiful Life, but here is an extended look with the official promo. Keep your eyes peeled two appearances by Elle Macpherson (at 2:14 and 2:34) who plays Claudia, a former supermodel who now runs her own modelling agency. It's best described as a mash-up of Gossip Girl and America's Next Top Model. Glad to see that Mischa is playing yet another pouty brat *sigh*

For the 2010 calendar, Terry Richardson was put in charge of photographing some of world's most beautiful women in Bahia, Brazil. Some of the models to be cast include our own Lily Cole, Daisy Lowe (below, left) and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (below, right).
They join Miranda Kerr, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Catherine McNeil in the revealing shots. This time, the aim was to use to use "no makeup, no reflectors - only the flash of the camera - no branded clothes or jewellery, no girls altered surgically," according to Pirelli manager, Andrea Imperiali. The final 50 images will be unveiled in London on November 15.
Ever since she fled our fine shores for the bright lights of New York we have been awaiting the premiere of Alexa Chung's new MTV daily show,It's On with Alexa Chung. The internet-based live show debuted on Monday with Alexa interviewing terrible twosome Heidi and Spencer. So far, the reviews of "our gal" have been mixed with EW saying: "She seemed witty enough, throwing in one-liners between scripted banter, but her hosting style was too abrupt... Then again, she's British (sweet) and she blatantly mocked surprise guests Heidi and Spencer Pratt to their faces. So I can't help but love her for that."
