Leona Lewis has found herself a new LA mansion, and a sleek new look to go with it.
The down-to-earth star has ditched her two-bedroom flat in Hackney in east London to move into a £1.5m villa in the Hollywood Hills, just a few miles from mentor Simon Cowell’s mansion.
The X Factor winner is renting the luxury home for £7,000 a month while she records and promotes her new album – which could mean more than a year away from the UK. The mansion includes five bedrooms, its own swimming pool and outside bar – perfect for entertaining Leona’s new American celebrity pals.
The starlet debuted a polished new look at a fashion party at the Live! on Sunset boutique in West Hollywood last night, with a new straight blonde do. She also flashed more flesh than usual, in a Herve Leger black figure-hugging bandage dress. Looking good, girl!
Princes William and Harry play a starring role in a video made by their father, the Prince of Wales, to promote his Rainforest Project.
The young princes introduce themselves simply as William and Harry and explain they are trying to save the environment “for all of us”. Watch the video now
But the princes aren’t the only famous faces to appear in the 90-second clip – Daniel Craig, Joss Stone and even the Dalai Lama team up with a CGI Amazon frog to highlight the dangerous consequences of deforestation. With the digitally-created frog sitting on his shoulder, Harrison Ford claims to be a “friend of frogs,” while Robin Williams says he is a “comedian, cyclist and frog translator”.
There is even a special appearance at the end of the video by the world’s most famous frog. No, not Crazy Frog, Kermit the Frog.
