George Clooney's fiancée Amal Alamuddin puts on a leggy display in pretty pink dress for lunch in London

She is a highly respected human rights lawyer, but George Clooney's fiancée looked like she could have quite easily made modeling her profession on Tuesday.
Stunning 36-year-old Amal Alamuddin, who works as a barrister at Doughty Street Chambers, looked picture perfect as she made her way to lunch with a friend.
Dressed in a gorgeous powder pink cap-sleeved dress, the pretty brunette shielded her eyes from the sunshine in large round black glasses.

Amal seemed to ignore the heat that descended upon London as she wore a camel trench coat over her white top and browns trousers when she was spotted out on Monday.

She teamed the outfit with a large brown handbag and light brown heels but added a pop of colour to the ensemble with a green crystals style statement necklace.

As the wind swept her luscious locks away from her face, it was clear that the lawyer was listening to music as she made her way through central London.

The Kardashian family have been pictured out and about in Paris ahead of Kim's impending nuptials to rapper Kanye West and now baby North is joining in on the fun.

The adorable 11-month-old tot looked a little tired as she was carried across the street by her doting mother on Tuesday - and the resemblance between the two was plain to see.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Irina Shayk appear in racy Mario Testino shoot for Vogue Espana cover

The ultimate power couple, world footballer of the year Cristiano Ronaldo and Russian supermodel Irina Shayk, have appeared even more glamorous than usual in a racy shoot for Vogue Spain.

Real Madrid superstar Ronaldo was styled by Mother Nature for the cover image in Vogue Espana, with Shayk shielding his modesty in front of him wearing a strapless white dress.

The shoot by renowned glossy photographer Mario Testino back in March was the first time the pair, neither of course strangers to the front side of a camera lens, have modelled as a duo.

The coverline of 'Amor & Fútbol', meaning 'Love and Football', gave the theme of the spread that inside also includes the pair posing in close embraces wearing nothing but designer briefs.

One intriguing image features Cristiano, now in preparations for the World Cup with Portugal after Real finished third in La Liga, sitting on what appears to be a hotel bed wearing a suit and tie. A whiteboard shows positional tactics and his latest Nike commercial is on the TV as the Ballon d'Or winner juggling a ball - Irina meanwhile stands looking into the distance holding either a phone or remote control.

While Ronaldo has been dabbling in Shayk's modelling world for years, she got her own back with one set-up including her in boots and shinpads, though her towel-over-the-head under a hood look was more akin to boxing.

Back in his day job as one of the finest footballers of his generation, Ronaldo sat out Real's final La Liga match of the season ahead of their Champions League final clash with Spanish league winners Atletico on Saturday.

Ronaldo was named ahead of the 3-1 win over Espanyol that saw them finish the season level on points with Barcelona, but was pulled from the line-up moments before kick-off amid concerns over a hamstring injury.

Real will be chasing their 10th European Cup title in Lisbon, but from these images it appears their star striker is already a big winner.

Rizzle Kicks put the boot into John Terry at England dinner

Most of Roy Hodgson's England squad will attend a charity dinner on Sunday evening where the entertainment – hand-picked by the players – will include a band who mock former captain John Terry.

The Lions and Roses gala dinner at the Grove Hotel in Hertfordshire raises money for good causes and will also act as a send-off to Brazil.

Star attraction: Rizzle Kicks are due to perform at England charity dinner

The bands are the Kaiser Chiefs and a hip hop duo from Brighton, Rizzle Kicks, whose single 'Lost Generation' included the lyrics 'I was more confused than all John Terry's black friends'.

Terry was charged with using racist language in 2011 but despite being cleared in court he was found guilty by the FA for using abusive language that included 'a reference to the ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race of Ferdinand'.

The statue of Ibrahimovic's famous celebration will be ready towards the end of the year or early 2015 for the French public to view.

Such is his status in France, the Swede will become only the second foreign footballer after Pele to receive his own statue at Musee Grevin.

Ibrahimovic told PSG's official website: 'It was a really fantastic day. It's a great honour for me to have my own wax statue, here at the Musée Grévin.

'I am very happy to have been chosen to stand alongside all these international celebrities. Don't forget to come and see me when the statue is unveiled!'

Zlatan's waxwork will soon be rubbing shoulders with the likes of Zinedine Zidane and George Clooney.

Museum president Béatrice de Reyniès explained: 'First of all we took all his information, all his measurements, we made a scan. Now we will work in our studios, first on the scan, to create a prototype and then the sculptor can begin his sculpture.

'He will then have a second rendezvous with Zlatan to see how the likeness is. In total, the whole project will take around 6 months.'

Ibrahimovic moved to Paris from AC Milan in 2012 in a deal worth around £16m and he has scored 56 goals in Ligue 1 during his two seasons with the club.

Ryan Giggs makes first TV appearance since becoming Man Utd No 2 in Dubai for football talent show with Diego Maradona

Ryan Giggs made his first television appearance since becoming Louis van Gaal's No 2 at Manchester United, but it wasn't quite the unveiling you might have have imagined.

The 40-year-old has certainly been busy since ending the season as United's interim boss and even interrupted his holiday in Dubai to link up with Diego Maradona for a new football show.

Giggs even hit the stage in full kit and boots as he joined Maradona and Michel Salgado on The Victorious, which aims to find the next football star in the UAE.

'It's great to see the young players doing so well and being given a chance.

'I've really enjoyed it, it's been a really successful night.'

He tweeted a snap of the famous faces along with the message: 'With Diego, Ryan Giggs, Jehad and my friend Bakoor in The Victorious'

The United veteran recently revealed his decision to retire from football after 963 games for the club, during which time he won 13 Premier league titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups and the Champions League twice.

Giggs will now be assistant to new United boss Van Gaal next season.

Courtois set for Chelsea return after landing La Liga title with Atletico

Thibaut Courtois celebrated winning La Liga with over 100,000 supporters on the streets of Madrid but looks increasingly likely to be contesting the Premier League with Chelsea next season.

‘I will miss all this the day I have to say goodbye,’ he said after Atletico Madrid’s draw with Barcelona won them the Spanish title.

‘I have built-up a very good relationship with the supporters in the three years that I have been here. I never imagined this would happen when I arrived at the club.’

Jubilant: Atletico won their first La Liga title in 18 years with a draw against Barcelona in the Nou Camp

IIt’s little wonder Chelsea want their 22-year-old keeper back, he has now gone seven straight games without being scored against by Leo Messi. The previous record was six held by Petr Cech the man Courtois could replace next season.

Messi was jeered off by angry Barcelona supporters unhappy with his no-show in the biggest game of the season just 24-hours after the club confirmed they would be making him the best paid player on the planet with a contract renewal.

Courtois was beaten in the first half of Saturday’s title decider by Alexis Sanchez but an equaliser from Diego Godin ensured that he won his second league title – three years ago to the day he won the Belgian League with Genk.

‘I want to win next week in Lisbon in the Champions League final and then I’m off to Brazil. The last three years have been incredible,’ he added.

Mastermind: League winning manager Diego Simeone is hurled into the air by his players

He was hugged by a hobbling Diego Costa at the final whistle of Saturday’s energy-sapping title decider but the Brazilian Spain international was in tears after being taken off with a sore right hamstring in the first half and remains a huge doubt for Saturday’s Champions League final.
One man who does not look like he is about to leave Atletico Madrid is coach Diego Simeone. There were emotional scenes at the end of the game when his father Carlos was ushered to the front of the Camp Nou to congratulate his son.
‘I was concerned to see him crying because he never cries,’ said the Atletico coach.
In the opposing dug-out Gerardo Martino had taken charge of his last game. He confirmed his departure after the match and will be replaced by former Tottenham target Luis Enrique this week.
The former Barcelona player and Barça B-team coach’s first task next season will be to find the old Messi and rebuild the side. 'There will be major changes' promised the club’s president Josep Bartomeu.
