Alright Mel, there’s no need to rub it in! The mother-of-two showed off her ab fab abs on the beach in Malibu today, while enjoying a drink and a stroll with hubby Stephen Belafonte.

But it wasn’t just her front that looked pretty pert-fect, the backside view was pretty impressive too!

Mel has released her own fitness DVD, modelled for Ultimo lingerie, as well as getting into tip top shape for a run in Las Vegas show, Peepshow, last year.

Stephen and Mel have just signed up for their own reality show, which she has promised will be ‘crazier than the Osbournes’ – I can’t wait!

To maintain her gorge figure, Mel’s said to be a fan of yoga, swimming and Capoeira.

Whatever she’s doing, it’s working!

The British sci-fi series Torchwood continues to gain fantastic momentum in America as development of the show’s fourth season commences. Last June, U.S. premium cable television channel Starz agreed to co-finance as well as carry the Doctor Who spinoff on its network and now Torchwood has expanded its writing staff to include A-list American sci-fi story tellers as well.

The three new writers are Doris Egan, who worked on House, Jane Espenson who wrote for Battlestar Galactica (one of my personal favorites), and John Shiban, who contributed to The X-Files. Original cast members John Barrowman and Eve Myles are set to reprise their roles of Captain Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper respectively. The show goes back into production, this time in North America, in January and will air next summer.

The skills of all of these talented people combined with the brilliant guidance of creator Russell T. Davies are sure to make the fourth season of Torchwood the best one yet! Thank our lucky Starz!

Just days after Susan Boyle purchased a new £350,000 five-bedroom home in the Scottish county of West Lothian, rumours are swirling that the singer will be featured on the wildly popular musical telly series Glee. Ian Brennan, a co-executive producer and writer on the show, responded to the rumours while in attendance of actress Jane Lynch‘s recent unveiling of a Sue Sylvester wax figurine at Madame Tussauds in Hollywood.

Brennan said: “I’ve heard the same whispers but I can neither confirm nor deny.” The writer-producer added: “I think Susan is amazing, such an incredible, interesting and strange icon for everything [Glee] is about. It would be a perfect fit. I hope we can make it work.”

It sounds like SuBo has a lot to be gleeful for these days!

Comedic actor Ricky Gervais has agreed to lend his voice to the popular animated series The Simpsons to play a cartoon version of himself in an episode to air in early 2011. The guest star stint will be the comedian’s second on the programme, as he voiced a British office manager on an episode that aired in 2006, which he also helped develop.

Speaking with the website Chortle, Gervais said: “I recorded [the voiceover] last week. Didn’t mention it as I don’t like to show off. You know that. It’s a fun episode.” He added: “It’s weird that I can talk about popping up in The Simpsons so casually.”

Working on The Simpsons appears to have been a lifelong dream-come-true for Gervais, as he said: “When I first got into comedy someone asked what my ultimate ambition was. I said, ‘to get a joke on the The Simpsons.’ I have been a very lucky boy indeed.”

Not only has Ricky been able to “get a joke on The Simpsons,” but will have been featured on the series twice in addition to befriending the show’s creator Matt Groening along the way. Congratulations on achieving your greatest ambition Ricky… twice!

Phew, it’s a good job publicity-obsessed Kelly Brook hasn’t got any esteem issues because you can’t have low self confidence when there’s a larger than life picture of your naked bum being flashed around!

Curvy Kelly unveiled her new billboard today and gave passers-by an eyeful of her bod.

But this is no gratuitous skin-flashing (OK, maybe it is) it’s to promote Reebok EasyTone trainers, which Kelly reckons are behind her pert airbrushed butt.

She said: ‘EasyTones are fantastic. You can wear them whatever you’re doing and know that you are toning and tightening with every step! ‘I wear them to walk my dog Rocky, when I’m doing the housework, when I pop to the shops… it’s a great, easy way to stay in shape and they look stylish too so no-one needs to know that you’re wearing toning trainers!’

Well they’re certainly doing the trick. I wonder where in London the billboard is, because I’m predicting an increase in cars rear-ending each other any minute now….

First it was a little nip/tuck on his wrinkly chin and now Gordon Ramsay has been lured into giving his British teeth an American makeover.

The celeb chef, 43, showed off his shiny new veneers at a press conference in Los Angeles today.

He also looked like he’d got a bit of a tan and had his highlights done.

Gord’s not the first person we’d think of when you say the word ‘metrosexual’ but there’s nothing wrong with taking care of yourself, especially when you’ve got the money to do it.

Veneers cost between seven and ten grand so they’re an investment purchase.

Besides, with Mr Ramsay being so ubiquitous on US telly he’s got to keep up with all the other perma-tanned, perfect-toothed presenters out there!

Former super-model Naomi Campbell is expected to testify this week at a hearing being held in The Hague as part of a case against Liberian dictator Charles Taylor; however, we will not be seeing shots of the photogenic diva entering or exiting the courthouse. Judges at the international court have banned photographers from snapping photos of Campbell’s arrivals and departures, as requested by her lawyers based on the grounds that her security could be compromised.

At trial, Campbell is expected to provide testimony potentially indicating Taylor’s possession of ‘blood diamonds’ in 1997, when Taylor allegedly endowed her with an illicit gem at a dinner party hosted by Nelson Mandella in South Africa. Up until now, the former top model has not publicly revealed her knowledge of the incident and has evaded being questioned about the suspicious events.

Campbell’s concerns for her safety and privacy have been ruled as legitimate by the U.N. court, which has issued orders stipulating that the British celebrity is not to be photographed entering or leaving the court building.

However, Campbell will still be recorded by courtroom cameras while she is actually testifying in court. Furthermore, the catwalk star has been granted permission to have her own lawyer on hand to prevent her from incriminating herself.

Since when do former super-models shy away from the cameras? Maybe that’s what they do when they have something to hide… eh Naomi?

Leona Lewis has always had a very demure image, but it seems that now she is single she’s vamping up her image.

The singer stepped out in a cropped checked shirt and fishnets as she went out clubbing last night to Whiskey Mist.

The night was 50s themed so she completed the look with a rockabilly quiff.

Leona went along to the club after going out for dinner with her friend, the designer William Tempest, and afterwards she tweeted: ‘Had a lovely vegetarian dinner hosted by William Tempest last night. Got to wear one of his beautiful creations too.’

She obviously did a quick change into her 50s ensemble!

I think Leona looks great and it’s fab to see her experimenting with her image – as long as she doesn’t head down the Britney Spears crotch-flashing route then a little bit of flesh is all good!
