Spot the difference! Brad Pitt's body double gets to work on set of new zombie movie

Friday, June 24, 2011

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Double take: Brad Pitt's body double, left, was spotted on set of Brad's new movie World War Z in Malta yesterday


It was a case of double vision yesterday as Brad Pitt - and his body double - got to work on the set of the star's new movie.

The actor, 47, is shooting zombie film World War Z in Malta and had a stuntman on hand to help get the job done.

The stand-in wore an exact copy of the star's wardrobe and even replicated his stubble.

He was also seen getting a wig fitted for a wig in the same style as Brad's shoulder-length mane.

Of course, the double feature in any close-ups in the film, but instead steps in for the film's presumably dangerous action shots.

Brad's stuntman shares a near identical frame as the movie star, so viewers will likely be unable to tell the difference on the cinema screens.

So far Brad appears to be having a ball on the set of the new film.

He has also been getting visits from Angelina and the children too.

Earlier this week, his brunette partner of five years and two of their six-strong brood visited him on set.


Handsome: Brad is known for his smouldering good looks and has been voted People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive twice in 1995 and 2000


Zahara and Shiloh were given the chance at a behind-the-scenes look at Brad’s latest film.

The actor took a break from shooting scenes to spend time with his daughters and their 36-year-old mother.

The four members of the family enjoyed spending time together and were exploring the scenery as well as chatting to members of staff on the set.

The whole family have relocated to Malta while Brad films his new post-apocalyptic horror movie.

Brad plays the lead role of role of Max Brooks, an agent of the United Nations Postwar Commission who published a report a decade after the Zombie War.


Date night: Earlier this week, Brad and his partner Angelina Jolie enjoyed a meal at the De Mondion restaurant at the Xara Palace Hotel, where Brad enjoyed dinner with his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, eight years earlier


Brooks scours the world collecting the stories and experiences of those who have survived the conflict that almost eradicated humanity.

The film, directed by Marc Foster, also stars Mireille Enos and Matthew Fox.

Earlier this week, the Hollywood heartthrob was also spotted wearing the wedding ring, sparking rumours that Brad and Angelina had tied the knot.

Whether or not the jewellery is for Brad's role is unknown, but he was not wearing the ring when he dined with Angelina earlier in the week.

Brad had chosen a familiar restaurant for the romantic dinner date, the same eatery he had dined with his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston in 2003.

The couple enjoyed a meal at the De Mondion restaurant at the Xara Palace Hotel, where Brad enjoyed dinner with his former wife eight years earlier.

You Are Not Alone: Michael Jackson's children find strength in each other on the second anniversary of father's death

By NADIA MENDOZA

Siblings: Prince and Paris look happy and laid-back during their cinema trip
Earlier this week, they were presented with custom-made Michael Jackson memorial motorcycles.


Michael Jackson's children put on a brave face yesterday, just two days before the second anniversary of their father's death.

Prince and Paris' close relationship has helped them heal following the trauma of losing their role model.

The siblings, who bear a striking resemblance to one another, shared a joke and smiled together as they headed to the cinema.


Family friend Marcell 'Porkchop' Miller designed the bikes, plastering them with images of the King of Pop through various stages of his career.

The specially crafted vehicles will be driven through Forrest Lawn cemetery tomorrow to honour the Billie Jean legend.

On June 25, 2009, the award-winning idol died of acute propofol intoxication after he suffered cardiac arrest at his LA home.


Larking about: Prince makes his sister smille as he listens to his iPod in one ear


Jackson's hometown of Gary, Indiana - where he lived until 1969 - are also planning a tribute to mark his passing, and promise to do so every year.

Mayor Rudy Clay said: 'The world can expect a "Tribute to Michael" every year in June in Gary, Indiana. The world is invited.'

Prince and Paris are clearly doing their best to carry on as normal, despite the tragedy. The pair both opted for a casual look, dressing down in jeans and combat trousers, and wearing matching necklaces with identical pendants.


Symbolic? Both Prince and Paris wore matching pendants today


Despite only being 14 and 13 respectively, both teenagers looked older than their years, and could easily pass for 16 or 17.

Their uncanny similarity derives from mother Debbie Rowe, while half-brother Prince Michael II was born from an unknown donor through artificial insemination from a surrogate mother using Jackson's sperm.

Their little brother, usually referred to as Blanket, joined them and their cousins, Jermaine Jackson's children, in Thousand Oaks, California.

Ignoring sunny 21ÂșC temperatures, the group opted to hide in a cool auditorium instead of relishing the good weather outside.

Blanket, 9, didn't look quite as relaxed as his siblings, but did show off his jovial side with his T-shirt slogan.

The youngest member of the family wore a top with, 'Things for Today: Brush Teeth. Be Awesome' on it.

Just how does she do it? Model Lily Cole collects a DOUBLE first class from Cambridge (that's the highest possible honour)

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Doubling her success: Lily Cole has achieved a double first class degree in History of Art from Cambridge University


Most jet-setting supermodels barely have time to do their own make up let alone sign up for a full-time university course.

But Lily Cole proved it is possible to juggle a successful modelling career with a degree by picking up double first honours in History of Art from Cambridge University.

In doing so the 23-year-old achieved the highest possible honour in her degree course - an esteemed honour from one of the country's top universities.

The millionaire model was scouted at the age of 14 and has since modelled for top designers around the globe.

Her assignments have included work for all the leading fashion houses including Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Versace, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano and Louis Vuitton.

In recent times she has switched her focus towards the world of acting appearing in BBC1 sci-fi show Doctor Who and Terry Gilliam's fantasy movie The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus with the late Heath Ledger.



A tough act to follow: Lily Cole plays the daughter of Dr Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) in Terry Gilliam's fantasy flick


Model turn: Lily has modelled for many of the world's top fashion houses


It was during her revision schedule when Miss Cole filmed scenes for her debut in Doctor Who, in which she appeared as a man-killing monster called Siren.

'Lily is really pleased with her result and has been smiling ever since she heard the news,' said a student at the university.

Adding: 'Not many students get double firsts and she has done exceptionally well as she had a huge work load outside university too.'


Multi-tasking at its best: The model juggled her studies with a hectic modelling schedule and still managed to achieve the very highest level on her degree


Throughout her time at the university she has thrown herself into college life, cycling to lectures, spending time with her fellow students after class and even modelling in the student newspaper.

Last term she combined her university life and acting career by starring as the lead role in The Seagull play at the ADC Theatre.

The model, who is said to be worth £6million, has said that she plans to concentrate on an acting career after graduating this summer, with forthcoming roles in There Be Dragons and The Moth Diaries.

In a recent interview she stated: 'Acting is something I’ve done since I was six years old, performing for my mum and my family in the living room, and I do it because my heart’s in it.

'I’ll always try to follow my heart into things I love, and modelling is not something I’m dreaming of pursuing forever.”

Lily is now said to be planning a holiday to celebrate her finals’ result.

She also scored straight As in her A-levels, gaining top grades in English, philosophy and ethics, and politics at Latymer Upper School in West London.

Now that's what you call Glamping! Wayne and Coleen Rooney arrive at Glastonbury by helicopter

By SIMON CABLE

Arriving in style: Coleen Rooney poses with Wayne's cousin Claire and friend Amy Louise Wilkinson next to their private chopper as they touched down at the Glastonbury festival


They have just spent the past few weeks lounging on a beach in Barbados. So it is understandable that the thought of camping in a tent at the Glastonbury Festival would not hold any appeal for Coleen and Wayne Rooney.

Instead, the couple have splashed out £15,000 making sure their stay is rather more comfortable — and certainly drier — than most other festival-goers this weekend.

Yesterday morning, they arrived with friends in a private helicopter which ferried them from their home in Cheshire to a luxury campsite next to the festival site.


Mrs Rooney couldn’t resist posting a photograph of herself arriving by helicopter on her Twitter page — wearing oversized sunglasses despite the gloomy weather.


The couple have hired a six-person Winnebago at nearby Windinglake Farm, advertised on the company’s website at £6,000 for the weekend, and have treated their friends to ‘podules’ — pop-up boutique-style hotel rooms — at the site.

Their Winnebago is fitted with leather sofas, a shower, televisions and a kitchen.

In addition, they have paid £270 for themselves and each of their party to make use of the facilities at the farm.


VIP style: The couple clutched their drinks as they made their way to the stage with their entourage


They have their own bar and restaurant, as well as a security service to ferry them the half-mile to and from the festival.

It is a far cry from most other revellers, who have paid £195 to camp in tents on the 900-acre Worthy Farm, with many struggling to find spots that were not waterlogged.


Glasto here we come! Wayne and Coleen Rooney set off for the Glastonbury festival


Slumming it in designer boots: Coleen chose a pair of £255 Hunter & Jimmy Choo wellies to stomp about in the mud in


The couple are with Wayne’s cousin Claire, Coleen’s long-time friend Amy Louise Wilkinson and her brother Anthony. In true WAG fashion, Coleen opted for a pair of £350 custom-made Hunter wellies with leopard-print lining.

The Manchester United star confirmed this month that he had undergone a hair transplant, but since then has kept it firmly tucked away under a baseball cap or hood.

Wayne and Coleen made a brief appearance on the Pyramid Stage yesterday for the start of blues legend BB King’s set, greeting crowds as they walked in, arm-in-arm.


Loved up: Wayne later tweeted a picture of himself and Coleen in the VIP area


Family day out: Coleen and Wayne leave the VIP area with Wayne's lookalike brother


The couple posed for a happy snap before setting off this morning, Coleen excitedly tweeting: 'Glasto here we come!!!!'

Manchester United star Wayne was suitable casual for the muddied festival grounds in a zip-up hoodie and T-shirt.

Despite their VIP arrival, the couple's festival getaway is far less glamorous than their most recent holiday.

The Rooneys jetted in from their luxurious holiday home in Barbados this week, after a holiday spent sipping cocktails on the beach.

The Rooneys are gearing up for a heady weekend of partying, shrugging off a callous interview by Helen Wood that was published today.

Miss Wood, who slept with Rooney while his wife was pregnant with the 20-month-old son Kai, has told ES magazine that she has 'no regrets over hurting Coleen.'

The 24-year-old former prostitute, posing naked, remarked: ‘I don't regret hurting her because the way I see it is, if you want to be a d*** get back with the person who cheated on you.’


Where's the VIP area? Somehow we doubt the Rooneys will be setting up their tent in the general camping section


Enjoying the atmosphere: Fans watch The Wu-Tang Clan perform at the Glastonbury Festival


But she added: ‘He is so unbelievably normal. Dead timid. Out of all the footballers that I've met I'll never know why he cheats.

'There's a lot worse than him. He reminds me of the boy at school who tried to be the lad's lad, but he's not.’

Wayne and Coleen are just two of the stars who have travelled to Glastonbury for the annual festival.


Famous faces: Jaime Winstone and Will Young were among the famous revellers


Mud-tastic: Professor Green (centre) also made an appearance at the festival


And, despite bad weather over the past few days, the Pyramid Stage speakers appeared to blow away the rain clouds today as the first major acts delighted the crowds amid glorious sunshine.

Mud-caked revellers got a reprieve from the downpours as the Moroccan act Master Musicians Of Joujouka and rapper Chipmunk got proceedings under way on the two main stages.

Sarah Chivers, 48, from Enfield, north London, is at the festival with her daughter Clare.


Luxury: Sara Cox tweeted a picture of the RV she is staying in at Glastonbury


Blondes have more fun: The Xtra Factor presenter Caroline Flack and MTV host Laura Whitmore also attended


She said: 'We've been here since the crack of dawn on Monday - it feels like we've been to three festivals before the acts have even started.

'We're most looking forward to U2 tonight - the line-up early on is pretty mediocre but it's better that way. The best is yet to come.'

As well as U2, Morrissey and US rap act Wu-Tang Clan were eagerly anticipated among the crowd.
