Celebs On Holiday

Elton John and his party of merry men were in St Tropez today for lunch at the chic Club 55.

Elton was hard to miss in a bright pink shirt and mirrored sunglasses, while his husband David Furnish was more subdued in a blue striped shirt.

Elton was all smiles as he posed for fans and photographers.

The nicest actor in the world has been accused of diva like behaviour. Gossip website Holy Moly  is reporting that he was holidaying in the Greek village of Epidavros last week on his massive yacht. The locals loved him saying he was down to earth and friendly.

Until  his chef stood on a sea urchin and got several nasty spikes in his foot.

Sting and Trudie Styler  had a big  night out in St Tropez last night. The couple partied with 80's supermodel Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber.

The famous foursome had a few drinks at a nightclub before leaving looking a little worse for wear. After leaving Sting and Trudie performed for the paparazzi with a very public smooch in the street.

The group then made their made to an after party on a yacht.

The likes of Jamie Oliver and Sebastian Faulks tell The Times about their summer holiday plans.

Among the highlights Griff Rhys Jones sailing on the Rivera and Penny Smith risking her life in Colorado. Jamie Oliver though is staying in the UK with a trip to Norfolk or Whitstable.

Leonardo Di Caprio followed in the footsteps of Boris Becker as he walked on the same stretch on beach in Fonterrma, Spain.

Di Caprio was seen earlier this week hanging out in Ibiza surrounded by beautiful ladies. It seemed to be men only as his party made their way into the inflatable boats rather more easily than Lily Becker did yesterday.

With a basketball cap pulled over his face to shield him from the cameras it did make walking difficult as he stumbled his way down the beach.

Newlyweds Boris and Lily Becker strolled on the beach looking  very much in love in Formentera, Spain.  Lily proudly showed off her pregnant belly with a skimpy bikini top, the baby will be Boris fourth and Lily's first.

Lily found it difficult to get into the speedboat and had to be helped in by two men. Surprisingly Boris was not around to give his wife a hand.

Supermodel Kate Moss is enjoying a getaway with her rocker boyfriend Jamie Hince.

They have spent several days in the resort town with a group of friends and Kate's daughter Lila Grace.

Kate and her party were ferried in a speedboat to an awaiting yacht where they hung out with friends and sunbathed topless.

It wasn't all smiles though as apparently Kate and Jamie had a fight over where to sit for dinner yesterday. Showing that celebrities really are just like us.

In the latest Katie Price and Peter Andre divorce drama The Sun newspaper is running exclusive pictures today showing Katie topless by a pool.

Her new boyfriend is cage fighter, Alex Reid who she was photographed with leaving Heathrow earlier this week.  The new couple have rented a private villa in Spain.

Peter Andre who has already publicly condemned his estranged wife's wild behaviour will no doubt have something to say about these pictures.

Is it the sun? The beaches? Or the A-list resorts? Whatever it is celebs can't get enough of the fashionable St Tropez.

This week we welcome another gaggle of celebrities including:

If you want to spot a celeb on your holiday head to St Tropez, you can't throw a stick without hitting a celeb in the head.

Is there any celeb that is not in St Tropez this summer?

After his flight on a space shuttle at the beginning of the week, Richard Branson moored his yacht in the hot spot and spent time with family and friends.

He relaxed in the sun during the day and had a few glasses of wine at night.

Jennifer Lopez and her husband, Marrk Antony, celebrated her 40th birthday in Rome this week.  They arrived in private jet at Ciampino Airport with their children twins Maximilian and Emme and Mark's son's from a previous marriage.

After arriving Lopez and Antony ditched their children and went for a look in the shops in Rome's upmarket fashion street, Via Dei Condotti.

To try to stay incognito the actress/singer wore a baseball cap and large sunglasses, it didn't work as fans soon spotted her and asked for autographs.

The trip to Rome ends a week of 40th birthday celebrations for the star which started with a star studded party in New York where guests included Madonna, Beyonce and Rhianna.

George Clooney paraded his latest girlfriend on the back of his motorbike yesterday. The actor is currently on his annual summer holiday in Como, Italy where he owns a villa.

George's new girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis is a TV Presenter and a pin-up girl in her native Italy. They were spotted having a romantic dinner in nearby Milan on Sunday and were introduced by mutual friends last week.

The lovebirds are now enjoying quality time together at Clooney's villa.

Has Rhianna forgiven her ex Chris Brown? Just days after he released a public apology for assaulting her they both were staying in Trump Hotel and Towers in Manhattan.

They checked in separately last weekend and her reps insist that it was a coincidence but neither had any public engagements in the city. They both took considerable measures not to be seen leaving or entering the hotel including using decoy vehicles.

As part of his sentencing for pleading guilty to felony assault he was ordered to stay at least 50 yards away from Rhianna, if he is found to be violation of this he could risk blowing his plea bargain.

Hollywood legend Jack Nicholson's expanding waistline was on full display as he took a dip in the South of France.

He showed his age as he gently lowered himself into the water for a swim in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat.

The actor may be 72 but he was not short of female company as there were  several attractive young ladies onboard the boat.

After taking a dip Jack covered up in a bright yellow t-shirt and went for a stroll around town.
