Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer opted for red hot attire for the 2025 Serpentine Gallery Summer Party on Tuesday in London. The nieces of the late Princess Diana joined such guests as Eiza González and cohost Cate Blanchett. The event marked the 25th anniversary of the Serpentine Pavilion in Kensington Gardens, designed by Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum for 2025.
For the special occasion, Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza coordinated their attire. Both wore red gowns with fabric draping and flowing silhouettes, with each adapting particular details to individualize their matching looks.

Lady Amelia's flowing, floor-length dress featured a draped sleeve with a cape-like effect and gathered fabric above the waist. The dress included a straight neckline, providing the ideal frame for Lady Amelia's shimmering accessories — a statement choker necklace and chandelier earrings. The British model's hair was styled in a tight chignon and pulled back with a side part.
Lady Eliza's red gown was strapless and included elements of fabric draping from the bustline and the waist. The dress, much like her sister's, was wholly evocative of Grecian style with its flowing silhouette and movement.
The straight neckline of Lady Eliza's dress also served to frame her accessories, which differentiated slightly from those of her sister. Lady Eliza wore a ruby red and shimmering silver necklace with coordinated chandelier earrings. The model's hair was styled down with the controversial side part — a style celebrities like Scarlett Johansson have recently embraced.
Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer are accustomed to twinning for major events. More recently, the sisters attended Royal Ascot on Friday wearing sharp, tailored looks reminiscent of their late aunt's royal wardrobe.
The two coordinated their footwear, wearing The Fold London's black patent Savona pumps. Outside of their recent public appearances, Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer costarred in the summer campaign for Aspinal of London.
The sisters, both of whom also serve as Aspinal of London ambassadors, were photographed for the '60s-inspired campaign, captured in a rustic cottage near Aspinal's headquarters in southwest Surrey, England.
'We have been wearing the brand for several years. Aspinal has a beautiful bag for every occasion and has regularly been our handbag accessory of choice at many red carpet and formal events,' the sisters said.
'We are excited for the advertising campaign to launch, as the team has created something very cool and iconic. And we are also looking forward to some of the other exciting moments that will be shared later this year.'

Global ticket touting operations exposed ahead of major UK gigs such as Oasis

As Cardiff gears up for a summer filled with top music acts, an investigation by BBC Cymru Wales has uncovered major ticket touting operations across the world. Reporter Steffan Powell delves into the shadowy realm of ticket touts in the upcoming programme 'The Great Ticket Rip-Off', which aired on BBC One Wales tonight (Thursday, June 26). The show uncovers how ticket touts are utilising vast networks of individuals abroad, dubbed "ticket pullers", to mass-purchase tickets for big UK gigs such as Oasis and Taylor Swift the moment they're available, aiming to resell them at hiked up prices. The BBC's investigation claimed that these ticket pullers may employ illegal automated software and multiple identities to acquire tickets, potentially constituting fraud.

Last summer, many fans of the Gallagher brothers were frustrated as they were left empty-handed after enduring long online queues without securing tickets for the sold-out tour. You can read more about fan struggles here. In an undercover segment for the programme, Steffan Powell impersonated a prospective ticket tout and captured audio of a Pakistani ticket pulling company boss, who claimed he could assemble a team of pullers capable of purchasing hundreds of concert tickets. Identifying himself as Ali, the individual bragged about his team's success in obtaining numerous tickets for Taylor Swift's Eras tour the previous year, among other significant events, and suggested that touts are raking in "millions" through such schemes. Ali boasted: "I think we had 300 Coldplay tickets, 330, something like that. And then we had Oasis in the same week - we did great" Ali further revealed his awareness of a UK tout who earned over £500,000 last year from reselling tickets, with others raking in millions. A separate ticket reseller from India discussed their strategy on bypassing UK laws, indicating: "If I'm sitting in your country and running my operations in your country, then it is completely illegal. We do not participate in illegal things because actually we are outside of the UK." Ticketing industry veteran Reg Walker described to the programme his infiltration of a covert online group that allegedly racks up thousands of tickets using dubious methods. Walker illuminated the tactics used by such groups to amass 100,000 "queue passes", thereby sidestepping the virtual queue systems set up for concert ticket purchases. He elaborated: "The equivalent is 100,000 people all of a sudden turning up and pushing in front of you in the queue," and expounded on how this impedes true fans from acquiring tickets, "So now you've gone from first in the queue to 100,001. This is the perfect example of how touts block genuine fans out from the ability to buy tickets." The UK Government is plotting fresh measures against the operations of touts, with a spokesperson stating: "We have consulted on a range of measures, including a price cap on ticket resales, as we aim to better protect fans and support the growth of the UK's world leading live events and sport sectors." Scams & Scandals: The Great Ticket Rip-Off is now available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

Denis Villeneuve Has Wanted to Direct a James Bond Movie for Years — GeekTyrant

It was recently reported that Denis Villeneuve will officially be stepping into the world of James Bond and direct the next movie. The filmmaker has been chasing this iconic franchise for over a decade. For fans of his meticulous, visually-driven style in Dune , Blade Runner 2049 , and Sicario , this next chapter makes perfect sense. Villeneuve has long dreamed of directing a Bond film, and now, with the torch passed from longtime franchise shepherd Barbara Broccoli to Amazon MGM Studios, he's finally getting his chance. Villeneuve has never been subtle about his Bond ambitions. All the way back in 2015, while promoting Sicario , he told ComingSoon: 'I was raised with James Bond. I love James Bond movies. I would love to do a James Bond movie one day. Action is very cinematic. I'm not someone that loves dialogue – I am someone that loves movement. Action, if it's well done, can be very poetic and meaningful.' In 2017, he revealed he'd already had talks with the Bond camp, but things didn't line up due to his commitment to Dune . He told ThePlaylist: 'I had some contact and the thing is that I'm busy right now.' Even in 2021, as Dune was dominating conversation, he was still vocal about wanting his shot behind the wheel of the Aston Martin. On the Happy Sad Confused podcast, he said: 'I would deeply love to one day make a James Bond movie. It's a character that I've been with — like everybody — since my childhood. I have massive affection for Bond. It would be a big challenge for people to try and reboot it.' 'It's true that it would be a dream to do 007. I don't know if such a thing would happen, but it would be a privilege. At the end of the day, that would be pure cinematic joy.' Now that dream is real. Villeneuve will helm the next Bond film, though he won't be working with Daniel Craig, who he once called the 'ultimate James Bond.' Casting is still up in the air, though rumors have swirled around Dune 's Timothée Chalamet, especially following Amazon's announcement. Despite being locked into production on Dune: Messiah , which is set to release December 2026, Villeneuve still found a way to make space for 007. And he's treating it like sacred ground. 'Some of my earliest movie-going memories are connected to 007. I grew up watching James Bond films with my father, ever since Dr. No with Sean Connery. I'm a die-hard Bond fan. To me, he's sacred territory. I intend to honor the tradition and open the path for many new missions to come. This is a massive responsibility, but also, incredibly exciting for me and a huge honor.' Producers Amy Pascal and David Heyman echoed that passion, saying: 'Denis Villeneuve has been in love with James Bond movies since he was a little boy. It was always his dream to make this movie, and now it's ours, too. We are lucky to be in the hands of this extraordinary filmmaker.' Given his eye for scale, atmosphere, and emotional gravitas, Villeneuve might just be the fresh perspective Bond needs.

Mick Ralphs, Founding Member of Bad Company & Mott the Hoople, Dies at 81

Mick Ralphs, the co-founding guitarist of rock bands Bad Company and Mott the Hoople, has died at age 81. In a post to Bad Company's official social media account on Monday (June 23), the guitarist's bandmates announced his death to the public. Ralphs is survived by his partner, Susie Chavasse, and his three step-children. A cause of death was not shared at press time. More from Billboard Gone But Not Forgotten: Musicians We Lost in 2025 Turnstile Soundtrack New Taco Bell Commercial Featuring Tony Hawk Royel Otis Set August Release for Second Album 'Hickey' In a statement shared alongside the news, Ralphs' bandmate and Bad Company lead vocalist Paul Rodgers celebrated the life of his friend. 'Our Mick has passed, my heart just hit the ground. He has left us with exceptional songs and memories,' Rodgers wrote. 'He was my friend, my songwriting partner, an amazing and versatile guitarist who had the greatest sense of humour. Our last conversation a few days ago we shared a laugh but it won't be our last. There are many memories of Mick that will create laughter.' Drummer Simon Kirke shared his own tribute to the band's post, calling Ralph 'a dear friend, a wonderful songwriter, and an exceptional guitarist,' and simply adding, 'We will miss him deeply.' The news of Ralphs' death comes just two months after Bad Company was announced as one of the inductees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's Class of 2025, which the band called a 'fitting tribute to the band's enduring influence' in their memorial post for the guitarist. The band will be formally inducted to the Hall of Fame on Nov. 8. Bad Company's debut, self-titled 1974 album earned the band their first and only No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. The band's debut single 'Can't Get Enough' reached a No. 5 peak on the Billboard Hot 100, which remains their highest-charting song on the list to date. Mott the Hoople, meanwhile, earned their highest-ranking track on the Hot 100 in November 1972, when the David Bowie-written 'All the Young Dudes' reached No. 37 on the all-genre chart.
