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.

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.

Nicholas Sarkozy was resting in the south of France after fainting on a run last week. The French president holidayed with his model wife Carla Bruni and their sons in her family holiday house in Cap Negre.

While Sarkozy wore loud swimming trunks Carla showed off her enviable figure in a tiny black bikini.

It has been noted that Sarkozy is not the first middle aged man to have a liking for brightly coloured swimwear. Richard Branson and Jack Nicholson were also seen last week in somewhat questionable swimming trunks.

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.

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.
