Naomi Campbell, 55, cements her supermodel status as she flaunts her sensational figure in sheer fringed gown at F1: The Movie premiere
Naomi Campbell ensured all eyes were on her as she graced the red carpet at the star-studded European premiere of F1: The Movie in London on Monday night. The supermodel, 55, put on a captivating display in a figure-hugging black gown covered in intricately beaded fringed layers. The dazzling number boasted a daring side slit and a semi-sheer skirt, allowing a glimpse at the runway star's famous long legs. Naomi strutted her stuff for the cameras in a pair of black pointed stilettos, while hiding her smouldering gaze beneath trendy cateye shades. The stunner commanded attention at the premiere, mingling with the likes of the film's stars Brad Pitt and Damon Idris, as well as Hollywood star Tom Cruise and Naomi's close pal, Lewis Hamilton. F1: The Movie was made in collaboration with Formula One's governing body, the FIA, with seven-times world champion Lewis being one of the producers. Brad plays the lead role of as troubled race car driver Sonny Hayes, who is pitted against rookie and rival Joshua Pearce, played by Damson, as they battle it out at various Grand Prix's around the world. While the reviews for F1: The Movie aren't quite all in yet, social media reactions from several critics began flooding in on X this week. Many praised Brad and Damson's onscreen chemistry, as well the movie's overall look thanks to director Joseph Kosinski, who last worked on Top Gun: Maverick. With some even branding F1 the 'Top Gun for racing fans' - three years after the aviator movie made an eye-popping $1.496 billion worldwide. Naomi's appearance at the premiere came just hours after she shared rare snaps of her two children during a family day out in the woods. She revealed last year that she welcomed both her daughter - in 2021 - and her son - in 2023 - via surrogate. Taking to Instagram on Monday, Naomi was seen wearing a white smock dress, while holding hands with her two little ones as they strolled through the woods and went tree hugging together. Captioning the sweet post, she wrote: 'In the woods, hugging trees — surrounded by my heartbeats, my blessings, my children. ❤️❤️' Brad plays the lead role of as troubled race car driver Sonny Hayes, who is pitted against rookie and rival Joshua Pearce, played by Damson, as they battle it out at various Grand Prix's around the world (seen in film) Naomi surprised fans in 2021, when she announced she'd become a mother aged 50 and posed with her newborn daughter on the cover of Vogue. The catwalk queen has not made her children's names public and has kept their faces private on social media. Naomi previously revealed just how much her children mean to her in a candid interview with The Times, as she gushed: 'My babies are everything to me. It's made me fear for the future.' Naomi went on to explain that she was never looking for a father for her kids and is happy being 'a single mother of a single mum'. When asked whether she used a surrogate she replied: 'I did. I hope for a better world for my children. 'They are 110 per cent my priority. I have to be there for them on their first day at school.' She also spoke of her concern that younger generations are not interested in having children and insisted parenthood is always 'worth it', no matter how difficult the circumstances. She said: 'I have heard a lot of young girls saying that it is too expensive to have children and they may not want them, and I have said, "You will change your mind. You will want to be a mum"'. Taking to Instagram on Monday, Naomi was seen wearing a white smock dress, while holding hands with her two little ones as they strolled through the woods and went tree hugging together 'I understand economically it is tough. But my mum had nothing and she made it work. It's worth it. It is so amazing'. She continued: 'We have to depend on the younger generation to change this world. I trust my children more than us to do the right thing.' Elsewhere in the interview, she revealed that she won't let her daughter go into the world of work at 15 like she did, after starting her own career in her teenage years when she did her first cover shoot. The beauty, who was whisked abroad to model in her first photoshoot for Elle in New Orleans aged 15, said she would be uncomfortable with her own child starting work so young. The mother-of-two said: 'I'm not sure I would let her start working at 15. It's a ruthless world.'

Gareth Bale stuns nation with bid to buy football team close to his heart
Gareth Bale has confirmed he is leading a consortium that is interested in buying Cardiff City and wants to be "part of growing the club" Gareth Bale has confirmed his role in leading a consortium with the aim of purchasing Cardiff City, expressing his desire to elevate his boyhood club back to the Premier League. The Welsh football icon shared his grand vision while attending the premiere of F1 The Movie, marking the first time he's spoken publicly about his intentions to acquire the Bluebirds. It emerged last week through Wales Online that Bale's consortium had made an offer to Cardiff owner Vincent Tan, which was turned down. Since then, speculation has been rife that Bale's public association with the bid could signal that another attempt is in the pipeline. Bale, who hung up his boots earlier this year after a spell at LAFC, remains optimistic about the consortium's chances of striking a deal. "We are interested in getting Cardiff," Bale declared. He said: "It's my home club, it's where I grew up and my uncle [Chris Pike] used to play for them. To be involved with an ownership group would be a dream come true. "It's a club close to my heart. It's where I grew up and I would love to be able to be a part of growing Cardiff and taking it to the Premier League where it belongs. "I know how amazing the Welsh fans and Cardiff fans are. It would be amazing to try and do something together." Gareth Bale has hinted at future involvement with Cardiff City, saying: "We are trying to engage with Cardiff and more news will come out on that in the future but hopefully we can get something done." The Welsh football legend's interest in Cardiff follows his ex-Real Madrid and Tottenham colleague Luka Modrić's becoming a co-owner of Swansea. Previously, there were whispers of Bale potentially investing in Plymouth Argyle, but that prospect seems to have fizzled out. Cardiff, who were recently demoted to League One for the first time since 2003, have now welcomed Brian Barry-Murphy as their new head coach. Bale, a towering figure in Welsh football, boasts a record 111 caps for his country and stands as the top scorer with 41 goals. His illustrious playing days included hoisting the Champions League trophy multiple times with Real Madrid and propelling Wales to two Euros and their first World Cup appearance since 1958. Now retired from the pitch, Bale is looking to leave a legacy beyond his playing career, potentially starting with Cardiff City, the place where his remarkable journey kicked off.

Suri Cruise is the spitting image of her mother Katie Holmes while back in NYC on a college break
Suri Cruise looked just like her mother Katie Holmes, 46,as she was spotted on a walk in New York City. The daughter of Holmes and Tom Cruise had an intense look on her face while walking through the streets of Manhattan early in the morning. The rising sophomore at Carnegie Mellon University is home for the summer after completing her freshman year in college. Suri, 19, dressed for the summer weather in a black tank top, grey sweatpants and black flip flops. She kept her dark brown hair off her neck in a ponytail. The star's sophomore year at Carnegie Mellon University will begin on August 26 so she has three months of down time with her movie star mother in the Big Apple. The daughter of Holmes and Tom Cruise had an intense look on her face while walking through the streets of Manhattan early in the morning The sighting comes after Cruise, 62, was asked about his plans on Father's Day during the premiere of Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning. Cruise has three kids – Isabella and Connor, who he adopted with his second wife Nicole Kidman and Suri. Suri is the Risky Business star's only biological daughter. Cruise was asked what an ideal Father's Day would be for him by a reporter from E! News. 'You know… Just having fun, man,' he replied. As he walked away he was seen shaking his head. Cruise hasn't been in contact with Suri since he and Holmes split in 2012. Cruise and Suri don't speak due to his affiliation with the controversial Church of Scientology. Members are encouraged to distance themselves from non-members – even when they are children. The star's sophomore year at Carnegie Mellon University will begin on August 26 so she has three months of down time with her movie star mother in the Big Apple. Tom has not been present for any of Suri's life events or birthdays since he split from Holmes. He also didn't go to her graduation from high school, where Suri received her diploma in the name of Suri Noelle. She dropped her father's last name and took her mother's middle name as her last name. It has been hinted by Katie that Suri may be studying acting and dance at Carnegie Mellon. Holmes told Town & Country magazine that after college, her daughter wants to enter showbiz. The magazine claimed that Suri 'is said to be interested in pursuing a career in fashion or acting.' That does not sound off base; Suri starred in a high school production of The Addams Family. And Katie has already put Suri to work on two of her films. Suri contributed vocals to songs in two of Holmes' films - the 2023 drama Rare Objects and 2022 romantic drama Alone Together. Holmes, speaking with Glamour i n April 2023, said that she has sought to encourage Suri's performing on her projects. 'I hope she always does something on my films,' Holmes said. 'I always ask her.' Holmes said that 'both of those experiences came out of the same sense of what I love about our industry, which is, you have these projects and you become a family with people.'
