Cheryl Cole

Cheryl Cole looks stunning in her Julien Macdonald sexy number

Once a designer dress has rocked the red carpet, it usually goes into retirement for the rest of the season.
But all bets are off when it comes to this £3,564 number by catwalk king Julien Macdonald, which has been worn by everyone from Cheryl Cole, 27, to Cher - yes, the real one.
Speaking exclusively to Now, Julien confesses: ‘I like dressing women with fun characters who have real bodies - curvy with a bust.
'Women, and especially celebrities, feel an instant sense of glamour when they put on one of my dresses.
'Both Cher and Cheryl contacted me to make something special for them and it was a real pleasure working with both women.'
Julien created this dress in nude for Cheryl Cole   - which she teamed with a VBH clutch and Jimmy Choo heels - to pick up her Glamour Woman Of The Year Award in June.

'Cheryl requested it in nude and she personally picked this
specific colour. I added further detailed embellishment on the dress
with more crystals and lace for that instant red carpet look,' explains
Julien.
Hot on Cheryl's heels, Alex Gerrard, 28, teamed the catwalk version with an Alexander McQueen clutch and Miu Miu heels for Elton John's White Tie And Tiara Ball on 24 June 2010.
Formula 1 heiress Tamara Ecclestone (above centre), 26, can afford to wear this look straight off the runway, teaming it with nude Julien Macdonald heels at the F1 Party at the Natural History Museum.
And this week, Burlesque star Cher, 34, turns back time giving celebs half her age a run for their money in a modified, more demure version of this season's It dress at the Burlesque premiere.
'The sleeves were put on and the whole dress was customised just for Cher,' reveals Julien.

Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake's call to Britney Spears: What the hell's going on?

Britney's first love Justin reaches out to her following shocking 

magazine claims about her current boyfriend

 

Justin Timberlake still cares about Britney's welfare

A worried Justin Timberlake has reached out to Britney Spears after the US press exploded last week with reports that she'd been physically abused by her boyfriend Jason Trawick.
While Britney's reps categorically deny the allegations, saying: ‘Jason's never laid a hand on Britney,' the story comes from her first husband Jason Alexander, who's provided audiotapes of alleged conversations with Britney to back up his claims.
Amid a worldwide tabloid frenzy, a distraught Justin Timberlake is said to have called his childhood sweetheart, demanding: ‘What the hell's going on?'
A close friend of the singer-turned-actor tells Now: ‘Justin considers Britney a member of his family and he's very worried about her, especially when something like this hits the news.'
The stories centre on claims by Jason Alexander that Brit told him her boyfriend Jason Trawick was beating her up.
Jason A has produced audio recordings of conversations he'd had with ‘Britney', but her spokesman denies it's her.
Jason, however, passed a lie detector test insisting it is.
On the tape, Jason asks why she didn't go to the police and a woman he says is Britney replies: ‘Because I didn't want the public knowing about it and I didn't want to file anything so everyone could find out. So I've just left him and changed my number.'
However, a message on Britney's website says: ‘The statements attributed to Jason Alexander are a complete fabrication as Britney hasn't had any communication with him in years.'

Speidi to split again!

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt met through a mutual friend

Seriously, is there nothing Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag won't do for a bit of publicity?
Now has learnt that reality show regulars Spencer, 27, and Heidi, 24, are already planning to split - a month after renewing their wedding vows!
The plan is to end their sham relationship early in the New Year, following a series of staged public rows and other moneymaking stunts.
We can practically smell the desperation all the way across the Atlantic.
‘Spencer's so shameless but you have to give him credit for trying to cash in at every opportunity,' an insider tells Now.
‘He'll cook up these schemes as long as he and Heidi continue to be paid.
'They're telling anyone who'll listen how seriously they're taking their marriage.'
This isn't the first time the couple have sold their souls for a few dollars.
In October, they were spotted ‘accidentally on purpose' burning their divorce papers - and let's not forget Heidi's regular trips to her plastic surgeon.
‘Their every move is calculated to earn money,' says our mole.
‘But what they don't realise is people are sick of it.'

Katy Perry

Katy Perry tells Russell Brand: You're driving me crazy

The sexy singer's already sick of ferrying her new hubby around

Katy Perry married Russell Brand in India two months ago

They've only been married for two months but Katy Perry already seems to have mislaid her rose-tinted glasses and has been forced to lay down a few rules for hubby Russell Brand.
The 26-year-old singer has become so sick of playing chauffeur to funnyman Russell, 35, that she's ordered him to take driving lessons.
‘Katy gave Russell a £65,000 Range Rover as a Christmas gift last year but he's never been able to use it,' a close friend tells Now.
‘That bugged her a bit because she's had to do all the driving and she was getting sick and tired of it.
‘They spend a lot of time in LA, where everyone drives, and Katy finds it kind of bizarre that at his age he still doesn't have a licence. After all, she learnt to drive when she was 15.'
Russell's being a good boy and has signed up for a driving course, but it might be a long haul.
‘Russell's already failed his test a couple of times in the US - he's not exactly the greatest driver,' reveals our source.
