Brangelina wedding photos? Hollywood's golden couple tie the knot in pictures the paparazzi can only dream of (courtesy of Alison Jackson)

Those pesky paparazzi get everywhere! And as these aerial pictures prove, no celebrity is safe from press intrusion.
Even if you happen to be one of the hottest power couples in the world.

But wait, surely there's something awry - not least because the wedding in question hasn't actually happened yet.

Artist Alison Jackson has reimagined the impending nuptials of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie where the roles of the couple are played by actors

No, things are not quite as they appear.
What seems, at first glace, to be the ultimate paparazzi scoop, is actually an elaborate set-up by maverick artist Alison Jackson.
Jackson is known  for her reimaginings of iconic events in which actors play the leading roles.

Last minute preening and preparations away from prying eyes. Or so they think...

Her most notable coup to date was perhaps a 300-image spoof take on the wedding of Prince William and The Duchess of Cambridge. 
And now the artist has turned her camera on the impending marriage of Hollywood couple, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. 

 

The bride looks ravishing in ivory - 'is it Armani Prive or is it vintage' - we find ourselves wondering as Jackson's lens follows her lookalikes from their hotel suite to the car to the outdoor ceremony itself. 
One thing is for sure though. As any magazine deal surrounding the real photographs is likely to be worth about $10 million, security to protect the actual proceedings will be rather tighter than it is in Jackson's world...

Everything's perfect and Brad and Angelina are all dressed and ready for the serious business of marriage

Baby's first outings! Kath Heiglerine debuts her new daughter for the first time over Mother's Day weekend

She adopted a second child back in April.
And Katherine Heigl and her husband Josh Kelley are eager to show her off to all of their friends and family.
The 33-year-old actress and her musician beau debuted their baby girl for the first time over the weekend.
However, the married couple's new little bundle of joy was all wrapped up and resting in her baby capsule as her new parents and three-year-old sister Naleigh stepped out to celebrate Mother's Day.

Special outing: Katherine Heigl and her husband Josh Kelley took their new baby girl out in Los Feliz for Mother's Day today 

Today the family headed to Katherine's mother Nancy's place, just a hop, skip and a jump from their own Los Feliz home.
The Ugly Truth star opted for yet another questionable outfit for the occasion, slipping into a Sixties-style knitted shift minidress paired with some over-the-knee pink leather boots.
She wore her blonde bob in a straight style and carried two bags, a white handbag complete with bow detail and another tan carrier, possibly to hold the baby's belongings in.

Mummy's girl: Katherine made sure that her other daughter Naleigh, three, also got plenty of attention

While Josh valiantly carried the baby carrier, Katherine made sure that her other daughter also got plenty of attention.
She stroked her little girl's hair lovingly as she cuddled up to her nanny.
The toddler was dressed in a her finest, looking pretty as a picture in a floral dress.
Yesterday, Katherine and Josh also took their newborn to visit some nearby neighbours and friends in the area.

A little bit of help: The family's nanny also joined them during the outing

The actress nearly had a wardrobe malfunction as her metallic shirt fell down to reveal her nude bra.
The stylish ensemble was however a coup for the normally fashionably challenged star.
Katherine looked chic in her blouse, which she paired with some white jeans and gold wedges.

Beaming: Katherine was the picture of happiness during the special day out

It was revealed at the end of April that Katherine and Josh had adopted their second child.
Her publicist has confirmed to the Mail Online that the Knocked Up star had welcomed a new addition to the family.
'Yes they have adopted a baby,' the spokesperson said.
This time Katherine and her husband Josh are said to have chose a little girl from Louisiana, according to the National Enquirer.

They are said to have collected the child in secret just eight days after she was born.
'The whole adoption process for Katherine and Josh's second child was like a covert operation,' a source told the publication.
'As soon as they got the word the baby was born, Katherine and Josh flew from California to Louisiana to pick up their new daughter.'

Excited: Katherine was there to visit some neighbours and friends in the area

In her mother's arms: The Knocked Up star once again brought her baby girl along with her to the outing

The process was said to be so covert that Katherine enlisted the help of a friend to get their new bundle of joy back to Los Angeles.
'To keep the whole thing under wraps, a friend sat sat with their baby five rows in back of them on the plane trip back to Los Angeles,' added the source.
'Only a select few people even know their newborn baby's name.'
Josh is said to be particularly over the moon and couldn't help but gush to his friends.

Proud mother: Katherine is no doubt excited to show off her new child to all of her friends and family

'I'm a dad again! Can you believe it? I'm so happy! I know there will be a lot of sleepless nights coming up for me and Katherine, but I don't care. I'm tickled pink!'
The former Grey's Anatomy star and husband Josh adopted Naleigh from South Korea in 2009 when she was 10-months-old.

Significant moments: Katherine and her friend affectionately exchanged whispers

Recently Katherine admitted she thought she had failed as a mother when she failed to bond with her.
The actress said her daughter’s initial rejection almost broke her heart as she struggled to cope.
She said she threw herself into work but found being apart from Naleigh only made the situation worse.
'At first I blamed myself and thought I was a bad mother. It took a while before I could admit to myself that the lack of trust had nothing to do with me,' she said.
The actress expected to bond with her daughter immediately - but was upset when she was rejected and described the months that followed as the 'hardest time in my life.'
'I fought incredibly hard for my daughter to accept me as mother. Her rejection almost broke my heart,' she told a German newspaper.
Katherine said she immersed herself in work filming The Ugly Truth with Gerard Butler and Killers with Ashton Kutcher.
But being on a film set away from her family only made the problem worse.
'When I realized that, I immediately cut back on work,' she said.
Katherine said when Naleigh bonded with her husband she felt a failure as a mother.
Now two years since the adoption Katherine said they have a tight bond.

She and her husband have previously said they always planned to adopt a child from Korea.
'My sister Meg is Korean and my parents adopted her three years before I was born,' Katherine said in an magazine interview.
'I wanted my own family to resemble the one I came from, so I always knew I wanted to adopt from Korea. We have talked about having biological children as well, but we decided to adopt first.'

Life's a beach: Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi enjoy a romantic stroll in the sand

They purchased Brad Pitt's Malibu home at the end of 2011 and it seems Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are enjoying the perks of living by the beach.
The couple stepped out for a romantic stroll in the sand today and put on an amorous display as they held hands and threw their arms around each other.
It was an overcast day in the California spot so the pair wrapped up warm, each sporting a cosy beanie hat for their beach walk.

Romantic: Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi went for a stroll on the beach by their Malibu home today

Chat show host Ellen, 54, opted for a black jumper and white trousers, which she teamed with a pair of monochrome trainers and dark sunglasses.
Meanwhile her 39-year-old actress wife Portia also wore shades along with a grey jumper, charcoal tracksuit bottoms, and pink and white trainers.
The couple are said to have paid $12million for the beachfront property, which was $2million less than the asking price.

Lovebirds: The pair put on an amorous display as they held hands before throwing their arms around each other

The pair had decided to downsize from their $49million Beverly Hills compound and moved into the pad, whose previous owner was Ellen's close friend Brad Pitt, in December.
Ellen and Portia married in front of their mothers and 19 other guests at their Beverly Hills home in August 2008, during the five month period that same-sex marriage was legalised in the state of California.
Ellen took to her Twitter earlier this week to say: 'Getting married was one of the greatest things I have ever done.'

Wrapped up warm: It was an overcast day so the pair kept cosy in jumpers and beanie hats

She then expressed her delight during an episode of her talk show after President Barack Obama spoke out about his support of same-sex marriage.
The star said: 'What an amazing day for our country. President Obama just came out in support of same-sex marriage. Wow. You know, there have been moments in history where somebody has had the courage to stand up for what they believe in and that one action changes everything.
'And I hope that this is one of those times. It takes a brave man to take a stand like this, especially in an election year, so Mr President to you I say thank you very, very, very much.'
Ellen and her audience then gave Obama a standing ovation.

Athletic Kate cuts a dash in her heels: Duchess tries to run in her towering wedges as she takes Lupo the dog to watch William and Harry play polo at Ascot

With her husband locked in battle on horseback, he should have been the one drawing plaudits for his sporting prowess.
But the Duchess of Cambridge once again stole the show as she displayed her athletic legs while attending a charity polo match in Berkshire yesterday.
The fitness fanatic teamed a sea-green frock with towering wedges that made her legs look even longer and more defined than usual.
But Kate isn’t the type of girl to let her shoes hold her back. When she wanted to catch up with William the sporty Duchess simply broke into a run and soon was striding by his side.

Kate opted for a breezy silk shift as she watched her husband play in a charity match in Windsor yesterday

Toned: The Duchess's calves looked particularly muscly as she walked across the Ascot Park ahead of the Princes polo match

Getting ready: The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge talk a walk with Lupo and Prince Harry at Coworth Park in Windsor

She had brought the couple’s dog, Lupo, along to watch the action at Coworth Park, near Ascot.
Kate was seen dashing across the grassy grounds struggling to keep to maintain her modesty as the £290.00 dress billowed in the breeze.
The scenes were reminiscent of the 30-year-old's 'Marilyn Monroe Moment' last year during her Canada tour while wearing a flowing yellow Jenny Packham number.
The buttoned-up teal petal print shift, currently reduced to £199, came from Hampshire-based label Libelula.
Ahead of the royal wedding, Libelula designer Sophie Cranston was rumoured to be Kate's dress designer of choice, although Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen won the final commission.
Cranston's fashions have proved popular with a number of celebrities, including Emma Watson, Tamara Eccleston, and Jerry Hall, with her signature vibrant prints and timeless shapes.

The £290 shift, currently reduced to £199, proved a little impractical as the winds picked up during the afternoon

Talking tactics: The Duchess of Cambridge trailed behind as Prince Harry and William were deep in conversation with their polo opponent during the charity fundraising Audi Polo Challenge match at Coworth Park

The Duchess spent the day watching the Duke of Cambridge and his brother Prince Harry, who were participating in a charity polo match.
The young Royals showed their competitive streak as they teamed up for a series of matches held at the Ascot grounds.
The pair, known as skilful horsemen, both played on the Audi Quattro team which narrowly beat Audi Ultra, during the annual event held at Cowarth Park Polo Club in Ascot.
More than 200 special guests were invited, including actors Russell Crowe, Gemma Arterton and Tom Hardy, among them.
This year marks the tenth anniversary of the Audi Polo Challenge, which has raised more than £1.4 million in the last decade.
Funds from this year’s events are being used to support Prince Harry’s charity Sentebale which helps orphans and vulnerable children in Lesotho.
But it wasn’t all competitive during the two day charity event.

Harry and William were joined by the Duchess as well as her young cocker spaniel puppy Lupo.
The lively gun dog managed to upstage most of the guests and became the centre of attention.
Last year's event was held in aid of three charities which William is patron of - English Schools‘ Swimming Association, SkillForce, and Mountain Rescue England & Wales.
Sunday's festivities were the end to a busy week for the Duke and Duchess.
On Friday, Kate entranced onlookers when she arrived at an Olympics black tie event  wearing her hair up and dressed in a gem-encrusted Jenny Packham gown and Jimmy Choo ‘Vamp’ sandals, while on Saturday the couple attended a special Olympics Concert held at the Royal Albert in London.

Sweet but not so innocent! Courtney Stodden celebrates Mother's Day by baking a cake in her underwear

Throughout the controversy surrounding her marriage to 51-year-old Doug Hutchison, 17-year-old Courtney Stodden has always had the support of her mother Krista.
So Courtney and Krista celebrated Mother’s Day together by cooking up a storm in the kitchen and baking a cake.
But even a family affair couldn’t stop the aspiring singer from baring as much flesh as possible in an extremely skimpy outfit.

Is that really appropriate?: Courtney Stodden wore a very skimpy outfit to bake a cake with mother Krista for Mother's Day

Courtney sported a black lace bustier and skin-tight miniskirt, as well as a tiny white apron that appeared to serve no purpose other than to add to the youngster’s sexy chef look.
Courtney accessorised her outfit with her trademark Lucite stripper shoes and gold snake armband, as well as large hoop earrings and a flower barrette in her wavy blonde locks.
With a full-face of heavy make-up, the teen and her mother and manager baked and decorated a cake which Courtney iced with the words ‘I heart Mom’ before covering it in strawberries.

Just for show: Courtney sported a tiny white apron that served no purpose other than to add to her look

Getting hot in the kitchen: The 17-year-old bared a lot of flesh in a black lace bustier and miniskirt

Thirsty work: Courtney drank milk from the carton during the day of baking and displayed her tummy in the process

When they sat down to tuck into their cake with a cup of tea, Krista, who was dressed in a black T-shirt and jeans, ate with a fork while Courtney opted for the less dignified approach of eating with her hands.
The mother and daughter duo also took part in an interview as they made the most of the holiday together, in which they spoke about their close bond.
Courtney said the best advice her mother has given her is ‘to always stay positive and be yourself’.

Teamwork: The pair worked together to create the cake in celebration of Mother's Day

Supportive: Krista has stood by Courtney throughout the controversy surrounding her marriage to 51-year-old Doug Hutchison

Flour power: The pair showed off their close bond as the mixed ingredients together

Seeing the similarities: Courtney seems to have inherited her mother and manager's smile

The model is grateful to Krista for helping to protect her from jealous girls at school, and she said: ‘I was in grade school and she pulled me out and put me in a Christian Academy so she protected me and sheltered me from all that. It helped me blossom to be myself and not have to fashion myself after what they're doing.’
And Courtney says she and Doug, who celebrate their first wedding anniversary next weekend, won’t be having children any time soon.
The star said: ‘No, my puppies are my babies. No babies. And we have beautiful puppies to infatuate with love. But I'd be a great mom if I had a child because I had a wonderful mother growing up - I still do.’

Tucking in: Krista ate gracefully with a fork but Courtney used her hands to eat the cake

Tea for two: The pair washed down their cake with a pot of tea

Doting daughter: Courtney let Krista sit back and relax while she served up the tasty snack

The fruits of their labour: The pair certainly seemed to be enjoying the cake as they each tucked into a generous slice

While Courtney dresses in attire that is somewhat inappropriate for her teen years, Krista - who had to give permission for the star to marry at just 16 years old - is always supportive of her daughter’s outfit choices.
She said: ‘I would rather have her do this in front of me. Her friends would sneak this stuff in the house, put on their high shoes, then go home in their little shoes and their parents would have no idea. I thought, that is so sad because these parents think “my daughter would never dress like that.”
'Yeah, not in front of you, but behind your back it’s another story. If it wasn't endangering her, I wanted her to feel free to be herself.’

'I heart Mom': Courtney planted a loving kiss on her mother's cheek once they had finished baking

Proud: The duo displayed their sponge cake which was iced appropriately for Mother's Day

Topping it off: Courtney and her mother decorated the cake with strawberries and pink icing

'I'd love to play James Bond': Tom Hardy wants the role of 007 if Christopher Nolan will direct

After Daniel Craig hangs up his special agent badge and retires to a life of non action roles, we have the perfect replacement.
British actor Tom hardy has thrown his hat in the ring to take over the James Bond mantle when his countryman quits the role.
Hardy, 34, has admitted that he would jump at the chance to play England's most famous spy and all round ladies man.

Ambition: Tom Hardy has admitted that he wants to play James Bond when Daniel Craig quits the role

In an interview with Verity Geere on Magic 105.4 Breakfast Show, he said: 'I’d love to play Bond with Chris Nolan director or something, it would be awesome.'
Hardy worked with Nolan on the hit film Inception and stars in the next Batman movie, Dark Knight Rising, again helmed by the British director.
Despite his growing success on the big screen, the father-of-one said he would not encourage people to get involved in acting.

Last outing: Daniel Craig could be replaced by the younger Hardy as 007

Speaking at the Prince’s Trust Celebrate Success Awards, he said: 'It’s a challenge, I don’t think I’d advise anybody to get into the acting world. It is possible, it’s about meeting the right people.
'But would I advise them to act – no, I don’t want them to have my job, it's competition, I don’t care where you’ve come from its dog eat dog,' he joked.
The This Means War actor also spoke about the new beard that he has been sporting and revealed that he intends to keep it for years to come.
He said: 'I’m growing my beard, I’m going into bearded characters now ‘cause I’m running out of characters… I’m going to keep growing it for a couple of years.'
