Will Smith cuts a smart casual figure in a textured knit polo as he parties with Jude Bellingham at Ibiza club
Will Smith took to Instagram on Sunday to share a slew of snaps from his fun night out with DJ Anyma and football star Jude Bellingham at Ibiza's brand new [UNVRS] nightclub. The actor, 56, cut a smart casual figure in a textured knit polo top as he let loose on the Spanish party island. He paired the look with black trousers and appeared in high spirits, posing for several photos with his famous pals. Anyma, 37, kept things laid-back in a velour sleeveless gilet and a graphic print tee as he posed with Will and fellow DJ Rampa. Meanwhile, pro footballer Jude, 21, also opted for a smart casual vibe in a polo shirt and trousers. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newslette r to stay in the loop. Will also gave fans a sneak peek inside Ibiza's latest superclub, which officially opened its doors on Friday night. The colossal venue boasts a 10,000-person capacity and is instantly recognisable thanks to a towering crashed UFO sculpture at the entrance. Inside, guests can enjoy open-air terraces with sweeping views of Formentera, along with high-energy performances from dancers throughout the night. Sharing the night's highlights on Instagram, Will captioned the post: 'Last night in the UNVRS.' It comes as Will is set to head to Britain on an unlikely tour of places including Brixton - charging fans hundreds of pounds for pictures with him. The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air and Men In Black actor will be hitting venues including the O2 Academy in Brixton, south London, Wolverhampton's Civic Hall, Cardiff Castle and Scarborough Open Air Theatre. Tickets for the shows alone have gone on sale at prices from £61.60 upwards - but the actor is also promoting more expensive closer encounters. His Brixton appearance scheduled for August 28 this year has standing tickets available for £60 a piece, alongside what is called a 'Will Smith First Entry Merch Package' offer costing £228. This promises an 'Exclusive Will Smith Merchandise Pack', a commemorative VIP laminate and an 'on site VIP host'. Yet buyers are told to note: 'THIS VIP PACKAGE DOES NOT INCLUDE A MEET & GREET. THERE IS NO ARTIST INVOLVEMENT WITH THIS PACKAGE.' Alternatively, however, customers can spend £415 apiece on what is highlighted as a 'Will Smith Group Photo and Soundcheck Experience'. This offers not only the merchandise pack and the VIP laminate but also access to a pre-show soundcheck and a 'Group Photo Opportunity with Will Smith'. The American rapper and actor is travelling across the Atlantic to perform tracks from his recent release Based On A True Story - Smith's first full-length album in 20 years, following 2005's Lost And Found. The tour, expected to also include such hits as Gettin' Jiggy Wit It and Miami, lands in England with a date at the seaside resort Scarborough, with Smith performing on August 24 at the town's Open Air Theatre. This will be followed by a gig at Cardiff's Bute Park on August 25 and a concert at Manchester's Victoria Warehouse on August 27. Will is due to perform at London's Brixton Academy the day before a final gig at University of Wolverhampton at the Halls on August 30. The star's Cardiff appearance on August 25 comes with the offer of what is dubbed the 'Ultimate Will Smith VIP Experience', priced at £1,290 per person. This promises a photo opportunity with Smith, an exclusive guided stage tour, access to the pre-concert soundcheck and a signed and framed 'vintage-style poster'. Will has faced controversy in recent years, most notably when slapping comedian Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards in March 2022 - and his choice of venues for his forthcoming tour comes in contrast to Chris's most recent UK appearances. Chris was presenting the Oscar for Best Documentary at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood when he joked about Will's wife Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head. He compared her to the shaved head look of Demi Moore in the 1997 movie G.I. Jane - and Jada, who suffers from alopecia, did not laugh at the joke. Will approached the stage and slapped Chris across the face with his right hand. Chris responded by telling the shocked audience: 'Will Smith just smacked the s*** out of me.' That same evening, Will won the Best Actor award for his performance in King Richard as Richard Williams, the father of tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams. It comes as Will is set to head to Britain on an unlikely tour of places including Brixton - charging fans hundreds of pounds for pictures with him

Lazy Griff team hoping to secure Soumillon's Derby services
'He ran really well at Chester and wasn't fully spot on for that and wasn't too far behind Lambourn, so we're expecting him to improve fitness wise,' said Middleham Park's Mike Prince. Another favourite comes in! 🔥 Lambourn wins the Boodles Chester Vase Stakes 🥇#ITVRacing | @ChesterRaces — ITV Racing (@itvracing) May 7, 2025 'Lambourn is around a 12-1 chance and we know our lad is a guaranteed stayer and there will be a few in the field who are not, so he definitely warrants being in the race, that's for sure. 'We do need it to rain a little bit and he's a German bred and would need a little cut. Good ground is fine but if it was good to firm, we would then have to take a view. There is some rain around and we'll certainly declare and then hopefully the rain arrives.' In comparison to those towards the head of the betting like Ruling Court who cost Godolphin €2.3million and Ballydoyle candidate The Lion In Winter who was a €375,000 purchase, Lazy Griff was a relative bargain from Baden-Baden's BBAG September Yearling sale in 2023 at €75,000. Prince continued: 'It's very hard to compete at middle distances against the big owner-breeder conglomerates and we don't actually buy that many horses of that mould for that reason. 'We do try to just buy one or two horses each year that we hope would give us a chance and through bloodstock agent Jeremy Brummitt, that has come off this year. 'It's lovely to be there mixing it and he will be plenty long enough in the market. But we know he'll stay and there will be a few who won't, so it would be great to see him run well.' Christophe Soumillon is poised to ride Lazy Griff (Steven Paston/PA) Lazy Griff was ridden by the aforementioned Soumillon when scooping Group Three honours in the Prix de Conde as a juvenile and the Belgian pilot – who has made no secret of his desire to one day land Epsom's showpiece event – is now pencilled in to ride having taken a shine to the son of Protectionist at Chantilly. 'Christophe said when he won the Group Three that he loved the horse, he gave him a good feel and he'd love to ride him again,' added Prince. 'It made sense to try to book a jockey of that pedigree for the ride.'
