OHMYGOSSIP — Vanessa Kirby has landed the lead role in sci-fi drama ‘StarDream’.
The 30-year-old British actress will have another stab at the genre after 2015’s space opera ‘Jupiter Ascending’ – which saw her portray Katherine Dunlevy – as she is set to play coder Andreya in Bjorn Runge’s forthcoming movie.
‘The Wife’ helmer says he was looking for a star who is “extremely sensitive and thoughtful” and that Vanessa was just that.
The 57-year-old filmmaker told Variety: “To play the leading role in this intergalactic drama needs an extremely sensitive and thoughtful actress who can maintain the balance in her character: I have found that actress in Vanessa Kirby.
“It is a tremendous honour for me to work together with her on this film.”
Runge is working on a script by Felix Harrison.
According IMDB, the plot line is as follows: “A spaceship is constructed to transport hundreds of thousands of cryogenically frozen humans from a failing planet Earth.
“When the on-board computer malfunctions, coder Andreya develops an artificial intelligence-based solution that she calls Stephen, who develops a profound attachment to Andreya, compromising the mission and the future of the human race.”
The movie is slated to be released in 2020, with production due to start at some point this year.
Vanessa will next be seen as Hattie Shaw in ‘Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw’ this summer.

OHMYGOSSIP — Stereophonics frontman Kelly Jones is set to embark on a solo tour.
The 44-year-old lead vocalist, lead guitarist, and keyboardist of the ‘Have a Nice Day’ hitmakers released his debut – and only – solo album ‘Only the Names Have Been Changed’ back in 2007, and now 12 years on from that release, he’s set to take the material out on the road once more.
Fans are promised a set filled with hits from Stereophonics’ impressive 22-year back catalogue, as well as tracks from Kelly’s own album.
The rocker has also revealed there will be some “new songs” in the mix, and even some covers of songs that have “inspired” him.
In a statement for the tour, he said: “I’ll be performing some old songs, lots of songs I don’t normally do, some new songs, songs that have inspired me and stories that have inspired me. The tour is about overcoming things and moving on from obstacles and building strength from that. I am looking forward to performing with some new musicians and creating some beautiful moments.”
Kelly will be performing six shows across the UK, in cities including Edinburgh, Cardiff, Brighton, London, Birmingham, and Nottingham, throughout June and July this year.
Despite not releasing a solo album since his debut 12 years ago, Kelly last put out a record in 2017, when Stereophonics released ‘Scream Above the Sounds’.
Last month, the band shared a standalone single called ‘Chaos From The Top Down’, which is sung from the perspective of a 15-year-old boy who’s just been shot.
Speaking about the track, Kelly said at the time: “[It] also touches on the tags and labels that have been stuck on [the boy].
“The stereotypes and clichés that were placed on him. It’s based on a true story that happened just outside my street. It’s happening everywhere. I’ve always written about what’s going on around me or within me since ‘Local Boy In The Photograph’ in 1996.”
Kelly Jones’ solo tour dates:
JUNE 2019
01 – Usher Hall, Edinburgh
08 – St David’s Hall, Cardiff
10 – Brighton Dome, Brighton
16 – Eventim Apollo, London
JULY 2019
01 – Birmingham Symphony Hall, Birmingham
03 – Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham

OHMYGOSSIP — Paul Rudd has joked his secret to staying youthful is having “darkness” in his heart.
The 49-year-old actor has often been praised on his ability to seemingly not age, and he’s now teased his secret to keeping his face looking young, as he says he’s actually “80 years old” on the inside.
Asked by People magazine at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (C2E2) what keeps him so youthful, he said: “I’m 80 years old on the inside.”
He then pointed to his chest and joked: “In here, pure darkness. And a little moisturiser.”
And although the ‘Avengers: Endgame’ actor looks youthful, he revealed last year that he used to constantly worry about having a mid-life crisis, and said he’s been pondering life’s big questions since he was in his 20s.
He said: “I think that one of the great joys in life is knowing that everything’s ahead of you – the big questions, such as: ‘I wonder what I’m going to do for a job when I grow up’; ‘I wonder who I’m going to marry’; ‘I wonder if I’ll have kids’; I wonder what their names will be’; I wonder where I’m gonna live’.
“When I was younger, if everything got me down it didn’t matter because all that was ahead. I think that it’s sometimes harder in life when those questions have been answered and all of a sudden you think, ‘what do I have to look forward to?’
“In my 20s I often thought I was casually strolling towards a mid-life crisis, and it started picking up speed all throughout my late 20s, 30s, 40s … I joke, but then there’s truth in that.”
The ‘Clueless’ star admitted that he’s still trying to work out how not to be a “d**khead”, while also balancing his ambition to be a normal dad with his movie-star status.
Paul – who has Jack, 13, and Darby, nine, with his wife Julie Yaeger – added: “I don’t want to be a d**khead. I don’t want to be rude to people. I want to be appreciative, and I am appreciative. I’m not complaining about it. I’m just trying to sort it out as it goes along.
“I want to be as normal a person as possible, but it has changed. I’m aware of being in crowds. And it can stress me out; I sometimes get a little more stressed out about certain things than other people do.
“If I’m with my kids I’m thinking about everything from their perspective; I always want them to know I’m there with them.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Julia Roberts spent time with prostitutes before filming ‘Pretty Woman’.
The 51-year-old actress shot to fame as sex worker Vivian Ward opposite Richard Gere as wealthy businessman Edward Lewis in the 1990 romantic comedy and spent time driving around Hollywood Boulevard with two women from the same background as her character as part of her research.
Barbara Marshall, a former nurse and the widow of the movie’s director, Garry Marshall, has told how she was volunteering at a Los Angeles free clinic in 1989 when she got a call from her spouse.
She told the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column: “Garry would never visit me at the clinic, because he was a hypochondriac and afraid of getting a disease. But he asked if Julia could come and talk to some of the patients.
“I recruited two young women who came to the clinic regularly, and I paid them $35 each to meet with Julia.
“I went back to work, and about 20 minutes later, Julia yelled from the end of the hall, ‘Bye, Barbara. We’re going to take a drive. We’ll be back later.’ ”
Barbara panicked and called her husband and told the director: “Your star just left with a group of girls, and I think they were heading to Hollywood Boulevard. I’m worried. What if she doesn’t come back?”
But the group returned later and Barbara praised Julia as “one tough lady who can take care of herself on and off camera.”
And the ex-nurse was particularly proud of a scene where Vivian presents Edward with a selection of condoms and describes herself as a “safety girl”.
She said: “I was so proud, because I realised that Garry was paying attention to my work and respecting the importance of preventing sexually transmitted diseases.
“I will always be honoured that he was able to steal stories from my life and turn them into charming moments on film.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Gwyneth Paltrow upset her daughter when she posted a photo of the teenager on Instagram.
The ‘Iron Man’ actress – who has Apple, 14, and Moses, 12, with ex-husband Chris Martin and is married to Brad Falchuk – posted a candid selfie of herself and her oldest child on a skiing trip, prompting the youngster to comment that she’s told her mother to ask for her “consent” before sharing her image online.
Gwyneth had posted the picture along with apple, ski, and heart emojis and Apple – whose own Instagram account is private – commented: “Mom we have discussed this. You may not post anything without my consent.”
But the 46-year-old actress couldn’t see the problem because most of her daughter’s face was covered by her ski helmet and sunglasses.
She replied: “You can’t even see your face!”
The last time the Goop founder had posted a picture of Apple was to mark National Daughter Day in September.
She captioned that post: “Happy #nationaldaughtersday Apple Martin, it’s like i conjured you from a dream, you make my life.(sic)”
Meanwhile, Gwyneth recently admitted she was keen to “reinvent” divorce when she and Chris split in 2014.
The former couple famously explained they were “conscious uncoupling” when they went their separate ways, and the ‘Avengers’ actress has now said the phrase was coined as a way to try and skip past the pain of divorce and move straight to a place where she could be friends with the Coldplay singer.
She said: “I just thought, ‘I wonder if there’s a way to circumvent that and just go directly to the point where we’re friends.’ We’re family, that’s it. We can pretend we’re not, and hate each other … or, let’s try to reinvent this for ourselves.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Cardi B is suing two vloggers for defamation.
The ‘Bodak Yellow’ hitmaker – who has nine-month-old daughter Kulture with husband Offset – has accused Latasha Kebe and Starmarie Ebony Jones of “trying to tarnish” her name and “spread lies” after allegedly making “defamatory statements” about her.
According to the lawsuit, Latasha has “put out at least 23 videos” about Cardi on ‘unWinewithTashaK’ in the last 14 months and reportedly implied the 26-year-old rapper had taken drugs during her pregnancy.
The lawsuit states: “While Plaintiff was pregnant, on or around April 13, 2018, Kebe published a video where Kebe stated that as a result of Plaintiff’s actions, Plaintiff’s then-unborn child may have intellectual disabilities.”
And Starmarie allegedly claimed in an Instagram Live video that Cardi “got herpes”, which the lawsuit branded a “false, malicious and defamatory statement”.
In the same video, she is also alleged to have claimed the ‘I Like It’ hitmaker took drugs and was engaged in prostitution.
The suit stated: “Specifically, she stated, ‘the more molly pills she would be takin, the more cocaine she would be takin.’
“Jones also falsely stated that Plaintiff was engaging in prostitution. Specifically, she stated, referring to Plaintiff, ‘I guess they were supposed to have sex, exchange sex for money.'”
According to TMZ, Cardi opted to take legal action after the women refused to retract their statements, and she is also seeking an injunction to delete the videos they posted.
The ‘Invasion of Privacy’ hitmaker later opened up about the lawsuit on Instagram but has since deleted her statement.
She wrote: “I didn’t really wanted to entertain this but ya know me and gossipinthecity never got along for years, and we always go back and forth, but what wrong is wrong and I’m glad she put me up on this.
“This person I’m suing is trying to tarnish my name and spread lies in other people blogs like gossipinthecity. spread all types of disgusting rumors about me and it has gotten worst [sic].”
“Stop trying to involve people in your disgusting goal on trying to dirty my name everything you accused me of doing and having will be proven with documents and test in court [sic].”
“By the way my father drives me and I NEVER NEVER had a assistant.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael Buerk thinks the BBC has become too “middle-class”.
The 73-year-old broadcaster is concerned that only those with “wealthy parents” are able to break into the organisation and believes the corporation has become “much less representative” of viewers as a result.
Writing for Radio Times magazine, he said: “Journalism’s a dying industry, broadcasting’s fragmenting and desperately insecure, but they’re still fashionable careers for our gilded youth.
“You have to have wealthy parents with contacts to support you, preferably living close to central London.
“While we’ve been worrying about the lack of diverse faces on the screen, or whether women are paid less fabulously than the men, the BBC, and the media generally, have become much less representative of those they serve.”
The former newsreader – who pointed out that once John Humphrys leaves the ‘Today’ programme later this year, all remaining presenters of the show will be privately educated – believes the network has become “uniformly young and urban” and offers a limited view of the world as a result.
He wrote: “‘Many of today’s generation are brilliant but there are serious implications. The BBC now seems a smaller tent.
“It is not deliberately biased but its world view is bound to reflect the collective set of assumptions of those who work for it. These are more uniformly middle-class, well-educated, young, urban and bright, with little experience of – and sometimes little sympathy for – business, industry, the countryside, localness, traditions and politicians.”
When he joined the BBC in 1970, very few of Michael’s colleagues were university educated.
He said: “They were sharp, if not especially clever, but they had the smell of the street about them and an empathy with those in the underprivileged sticks from which most had hailed.”
A spokesperson for the corporation insisted they are “more diverse” than ever before.
They said: “More than eight out of 10 of our workforce were educated in state schools and we’re more diverse than we’ve ever been, but we want to lead the way and on top of offering hundreds of apprenticeships we recently set out a range of further action to find and develop the best talent whatever their background.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael B. Jordan is set to star in ‘Methusaleh’.
The 32-year-old actor will reportedly produce and lead the Warner Bros. film based on the Biblical story of Methuselah – the Man of the Javelin – who lives to be hundreds of years old without showing the physical signs of ageing.
The ‘Creed’ star will produce through his Outlier Society production company along with Heyday’s David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford.
According to reports, the movie has been pitched as an “elevated genre” and will focus on the skills accumulated by the lead character throughout his existence and will be penned by Arash Amel and Zach Dean.
The project has been in development by Warner for years and in 2017 it was reported that director Jerry Bruckheimer would helm the project with Tom Cruise as the lead and Will Smith has also previously been attached to the project.
The ‘Black Panther’ star was recently reported to be in talks for a key role in drama film ‘Journal for Jordan’ directed by Hollywood great Denzel Washington and Jordan will help to produce the film under his Outlier Society banner whilst Washington will also produce, alongside Escape Artist’s Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal and Steve Tisch.
Oscar-nominated screenwriter Virgil Williams has penned the script, which is based on the true story of Dana Canedy, the Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, and how she fell in love with Sergeant Charles Monroe King.
The script is informed by King’s journals, which he had penned for the couple’s newborn son, Jordan. King had wrote these whilst he was deployed overseas and whilst he sadly died whilst on active duty in Iraq in 2006, his messages of hope continue to live on through his letters.

OHMYGOSSIP — Winston Duke says ‘Avengers: Endgame’ is “unlike anything else you have seen before”.
The 32-year-old actor appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films ‘Black Panther’ and ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ as M’Baku – the leader of the Jabari Tribe – and has revealed that he will be featuring in the forthcoming instalment of the superhero franchise.
The ‘Us’ star went on to say that ‘Avengers: Endgame’ – which will seal the fate of many MCU heroes who disappeared at the end of ‘Infinity War’ – is “one heck of a ride” and insisted Marvel have gone “above and beyond” in trying to top their last film.
When asked in an interview with British GQ whether he would be returning for the next instalment of the franchise, he said: “I don’t think I’m allowed to say at this stage … Oh, actually, I think I can. Yes, I’m in the new ‘Avengers’ movie. I’m in ‘Endgame’ and it is one heck of a ride! Unlike anything else you have seen before. Marvel always goes above and beyond in trying to top their previous project. They’re 21 movies in, so now they’re just able to be as bold as they want.”
Winston also spoke about “challenging the [cultural] landscape” while making ‘Black Panther – the first Marvel film with a predominantly black cast – and recalled a moment where his co-star and friend Lupita Nyong’o explained to him that it was “crazy” they were able to make this film.
He said: “There was one day when we were on the set of Universal Studios in a cart driving by the ‘Jaws’ set and I look over at [Nyong’o] and said, ‘Do you realise how crazy it is that we’re on the Universal Studios set, by the original Jaws set, about to do our own movie? Do you realise how crazy this is?’ We’re in a place with so much history. And now we get to change and challenge the landscape that we inherited.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Stevie Wonder will headline Barclaycard presents British Summertime Hyde Park with special guest Lionel Richie.
The ‘Superstition’ hitmaker – who last played the summer festival series three years ago – will bring his ‘The Stevie Wonder Song Party: A Celebration of Life, Love & Music’ show to London for the first time on July 6.
Speaking about ‘Song Party’ – which celebrates his storied career, spanning almost six decades – Stevie said: “We’re living in a time where there’s so much is going on in the world.
“But the one thing that we know for sure that we can celebrate is life, love and music.
“I’m very thankful that you all have been so wonderful to me, giving me your life and allowing me to share my music with you since I was 11 years old, which was just a little ago. So, we’re just going to play and have fun.”
The 68-year-old music icon will be joined on the Great Oak Stage by his dear friend and peer Lionel, 69, who he paid tribute to by performing a cover of his 1977 hit with the Commodores ‘Easy’ at the ‘Hello’ hitmaker’s Kennedy Center Honours ceremony in December 2017.
Lionel said at the time: “I got into the business because I wanted to be like Stevie Wonder, so for all of a sudden for Stevie to be singing my song, it was surreal.”
On their final line-up announcement, Jim King, SVP of promoter AEG Presents, commented: “There are headliners, great headliners, lineups, stellar lineups and a thousand other adjectives we use but we will never find the one that correctly describes what will be happening in Hyde Park on Saturday, July 6.
“Stevie Wonder is singing his biggest hits for his very own ‘Song Party’ and for good measure, and to our mutual amazement, joy and wonder, he is also bringing his good friend Lionel Richie.”
BST 2019 will also see headline performances from Celine Dion, Barbra Streisand, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, The National, Robbie Williams and Florence + the Machine.
Tickets for Stevie and Lionel’s show go on sale on Friday (29.03.19) from 9am.

OHMYGOSSIP — Halsey’s new album will be “a loud one”.
The ‘Without Me’ hitmaker – who recently released the emo pop rock hit ’11 Minutes’ with Yungblud and Travis Barker – has promised fans she will drop her eagerly-awaited follow-up to 2017’s ‘Hopeless Fountain Kingdom’ in 2019, and also hinted her new tunes will be “heavier” than what fans are used to.
The 24-year-old pop star also admitted that the writing process has been “a lesson in forgiving myself”, as she opened up about struggling with self-love.
Halsey – who is dating British rocker Yungblud – tweeted: “I know you guys are anxious for new music and new memories. for touring and traveling with your friends. for events and pop ups and meeting new people. for music video screenshots. for group chats and late night. thank you for being patient with me. I want it to be perfect … Writing this album has been a lesson in forgiving myself. In being proud of myself and kind to myself despite how much this world is designed to make you hate yourself. I hope when it’s finally in your hands it brings you that same peace. It’s not a quiet peace. It’s a loud one. (sic)”
When one fan asked asked her: “Is it coming out this year that is all I wanna know?”, she replied: “Yes.”
In the same thread, Halsey also apologised for the times she has been “ungrateful”, and admitted she was moved with “emotion” after seeing all of the tattoos her fans have had done to pay homage to her.
She wrote: “dearest universe,
please forgive me and have patience with me in moments I have ever been ungrateful. that thread of all your halsey tattoos really moved me in such a massive way. huge waves of emotion and gratitude right now. thank you for choosing me. (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Beth Ditto is reuniting with Gossip for a UK and European tour to mark the 10th anniversary of their breakthrough cult LP ‘Music For Men’.
The ‘Standing In The Way of Control’ hitmakers – completed by Nathan Howdeshell and Hannah Billie – have announced further dates after confirming their first live show since 2012 at London’s Somerset House on July 21.
Promising a “sweaty and outrageous time”, the band said: “We can’t believe it’s been 10 years since the release of ‘Music For Men’!
“We are beyond excited to reunite with our Gossip family and fans.
“We’ve truly missed playing these songs and connecting with our amazing and inspiring crowds. “It’ll be a sweaty, outrageous time for sure. Can’t wait to see y’all in Europe in July!”
The run of dates, which kick off at Beauregard Festival in France on July 4 and wrap at Dublin’s LGBTQ+ event Love Sensation on August 18, will see the group play songs from the acclaimed 2009 album, which was produced by Grammy Award-winner Rick Rubin and at his legendary Shangri La Studio, as well as their greatest hits.

Beth went on to release her debut solo album ‘Fake Sugar’ a year later.
During the promo run for the record, Beth admitted she couldn’t see Gossip reuniting, unless “some things were settled and cleared” up, although she insisted there was no bad blood between them.
Asked whether they will get back together, she said: “I don’t think it could come back unless some things were settled and cleared. There’s no drama between us.
“We get along the way we always got along.
“We still send each other jokes. We would go months without seeing each other, but we loved each other like family.
“When we weren’t on tour we never hung out.
“Every once in a while we would, but for the most part we had very different friends and interests.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Georgia Kousoulou admits Mike Thalassitis’ tragic death “really hit home” after her boyfriend Tommy Mallet’s own mental health battle.
The ‘Only Way is Essex’ cast member has revealed how the late ‘Love Island’ star’s passing, aged 26, earlier this month had a big impact on her because her man had been struggling last summer.
She told MailOnline: “Do you know what, mental health is a hard thing, god bless Mike and his family. That really shook me up. It really hit home for me because Tommy was in that place.
“He was in a bad way through summer, it really scared me because I wish Mike would have opened up to anyone, or even me.
“I didn’t know him but I had gone through it with Tommy and it really upset me, it’s not something I can speak loosely about.”
The reality TV star was relieved Tommy spoke out about his own battle last year, and the ‘TOWIE’ series finale showed him breaking down over his difficult few months.
Georgia added: “It’s a serious thing. I’m so glad Tommy spoke out about it. How Tommy coped was through talking and showing his emotions. He never cries so when he cried I was like, ‘Woah’ it was huge. It’s inspired other people to talk.”
Mike’s body was found in woodland near his Essex home earlier this month.
Since his death, ITV – who air ‘Love Island’ – have announced “proactive” changes will be made to their aftercare for the stars of the popular show.
‘Embarrassing Bodies’ star Dr. Christian Jessen has called production companies to do more to help.
He recently said: “The problem with the shows is that one minute you are up there and the next minute you are literally nobody as a new show has come out.
“One minute everyone loves you and the next they don’t know who the f**k you are, which is a hugely tough thing to deal with. I think TV channels and production companies have a responsibility to make sure people are looked after.”

OHMYGOSSIP — James Lock and Yazmin Oukhellou have made a surprise return to ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ after leaving to work on their relationship.
The loved-up couple – who left last year to focus on their work at a new wellness retreat in Morocco – stunned their co-stars when they made their shock comeback at the series launch party this week, and said their romance is stronger than ever.
James told The Sun Online: “We’ve had some happy receptions and others haven’t been as happy to see us. Some people have bad weeks, bad months, bad years and for us we had a bad year.
“But it hasn’t broken us and we’ve moved on from it. It’s made us stronger and more positive.”
Yaz added that they kept their return a secret from the rest of the cast until the moment they arrived at the event.
She said: “Everyone thought we’d been axed, but we’re back. We wanted to surprise everyone in the cast, so they had no idea we were coming back until we arrived here.”
And while they’re ready to throw themselves back into the ITVBe show, the couple won’t be getting involved in too much of the drama after getting a fresh outlook during their time away.
Yaz explained: “I’m not interested in having fights or dramas with anyone anymore, it’s so immature now. We’ve set up our own wellness retreat and I’ve got healthy and positive vibes to put into that.
“I haven’t got time to be wasting my energy with silly arguments. If anyone wants to create those dramas needs to get a job.”
The couple left ‘TOWIE’ during filming for the previous series, and it was reported at the time they were planning a return for 2019.
A source previously said: “James and Yaz have taken a break from the show but are both set to return in the New Year.
“They have struggled with their relationship this series but love and care for each other so want to do whatever it takes to get back on track.
“Time away from the cameras hasn’t come at a better time for Yazmin who is in the process of setting up a fitness boot camp that she hopes will refocus her mind.
“She’s in demand at the moment after overcoming her recent issues and has been offered numerous other TV shows.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Coronation Street’ have cast a new LGBTQ+ character following the shock death of Rana Habeeb.
The ITV soap has faced a backlash from the LGBTQ+ community after the loveable cobbles resident – played by Bhavna Limbachia – was bumped off on her wedding day to fellow bride Kate Connor (Faye Brookes) last week, but a new character, gay footballer Kai, is set to be introduced following auditions last week.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “‘Corrie’ has had strong LGBT characters for a long time but viewers were left devastated when they killed off Rana just before she tied the knot.
“They’re now hunting for a new gay character called Kai, and held auditions last week.
“Kai will be a rising football star, who is also black, and he’s worried that being out will cause him issues.”
Rana perished last Wednesday (20.03.19) after the Underworld factory collapsed on top of her – and her death led to criticism from some viewers, who compared her passing to an online theory that LGBTQ+ couples aren’t allowed to last long term in fictional shows and films.
However, Bhavna insisted it was her decision to be killed off after she decided to quit the soap, and said she didn’t want to “offend” the community.
She explained: “My decision to leave and be killed off was never meant to offend the LGBTQ+ community.
“It was made with the same way I’ve tried to portray the character throughout the years – and that’s with truth and integrity.”
What’s more, Faye recently insisted to fans of the fictional couple – dubbed Kana – that the actresses are “just as sad” as the viewers about Rana’s demise.
She said: “I am so worried for the Kana fans because I love them. I need them to know that we are just as sad as them to say goodbye to that couple.
“It felt like Bhavna was actually breaking up with me.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Elizabeth Hurley was “unprepared” for the reaction to her iconic 1994 Versace pin gown.
The 53-year-old actress turned heads when she stepped out for the premiere of ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’, with then-boyfriend and film star Hugh Grant, wearing the black gown, which featured a thigh high slit and gold pins with the Italian designer’s logo.
However, the ‘Royals’ star admitted the iconic look was created last minute when a PR company fished the gown out of a “plastic bag” and the star did her own hair and make-up in a small mirror she shared with Hugh.
She told the April issue of US Harper’s Bazaar magazine: “I was so unprepared for what happened that night. I urgently needed to find a dress to wear for Hugh’s premiere, and in those days I had no idea about fashion.
“I remember going to an office where they literally fished a dress out of a white plastic bag. I took it home and did my own hair and make-up, fighting Hugh for the mirror, which wasn’t even full-length, in our tiny one-bedroom flat. It was all very unglamorous compared to how things get done these days.”
And Donatella Versace thinks the gown – which was created by her late brother Gianni Versace – couldn’t have been worn better by anyone else because Elizabeth “embodied” a strong “woman”.
She added: “Gianni made that dress for a woman who is sure of herself and who isn’t afraid to break the rules. Liz embodied all of this in an extraordinary way.”
And 25 years later, the brunette beauty has stepped back into a slightly more “demure” version of the original dress for the fashion magazine, but admitted the 1994 gown “still fits” – though she wouldn’t wear it now.
She said: “I don’t exercise, but I am very active, But just because it still fits doesn’t mean I would wear it today – it wouldn’t be appropriate!”
