She wasn't even born when Private Benjamin was released. But Nicole Richie is such a fan of the hit 1980 movie that she chose to recreate it for a new photoshoot. The 30-year-old played at soldiers as she dressed in a military coat and leather boots for the shots, inspired by Goldie Hawn's classic role.

The jacket is paired with almost crotch-high lace-up boots, in a sexy twist on the military theme.
Inspiration: Goldie Hawn as Private Benjamin in the 1980 movie of the same name
Nicole poses against the backdrop of an old army jeep. Her brown hair is loose and she wears a generous collection of tasteful jewellery. 'I’m a huge fan of Goldie,' Nicole tells the magazine. 'But besides that, I gravitated toward the movie because you see her character faced with challenges—she has a choice to go back to what she’s comfortable in or face new challenges. 'So that concept kind of speaks to me.' In another photograph for the spread, The Truth About Diamonds author stands between a pair of models dressed as red beret military police. She wears another dark tailored jacket, this time with brass-coloured buttons and military-style hat. In the hit movie, Goldie Hawn starred as Private Judy Benjamin, a sheltered girl from a wealthy socialite family, who joins the U.S. army on a whim. Like Private Benjamin, Nicole also grew up in a wealthy family - the adopted daughter of music legend Lionel Richie and his then-wife Brenda. Nicole didn't join the army, but suffered through challenges of a different kind in her early twenties - a very public struggle with substance abuse and stint in a rehabilitation facility. It was just 10 days after coming out of rehab that she started filming The Simple Life with friend Paris Hilton, the hit reality TV show that made them both household names.
In charge: The successful designer has parlayed her reality TV career into two thriving fashion linesIn charge: The successful designer has parlayed her reality TV career into two thriving fashion linesThese days, Nicole says her challenges - like those of so many women - is that she wears so many 'hats'. She juggles two successful clothing lines, her role as a mentor on the reality show Fashion Star, and her role as a wife to musician husband Joel Madden and mother to daughter Harlow and son Sparrow. 'It’s an interesting time right now, because women aren’t doing just one thing,' she says. 'We’re wearing many hats, taking on different roles. That’s just how the modern American woman is today.'

'I don’t really do that with my kids. It’s important to me that they have stability. I like them to be home.' 
She adds: 'I was taken out of school, and had tutors. By the time my father went onstage, I was asleep.' Feminine: The fashionista eases up on the military theme for this shot, in which she wears a blue dress

Despite her young age, Nicole also has some advice to share. 'Always be open to criticism,' she says. Criticism is the best thing you can ever get because it’s someone’s honest opinion—you need to hear it. What’s the point of hearing how great you are all the time?' The celebrity was seen outside her home earlier this week, heading to her workout gym in Studio City in a pair of black leggings and a ripped singlet top.

Before Robin Roberts arrived in hospital this morning for her scheduled bone marrow transplant, it seems she was given a larger than life send off from her Good Morning America 'family' last night. Hours before she was scheduled to check-in to a New York City hospital, the 51-year-old anchor tweeted several fun-loving pictures with Good Morning America host Josh Elliott, ABC's senior executive producer Tom Cibrowski, and senior vice president of ABC News James Goldston. She captioned one picture, writing: 'Shhhhhh...don't tell my doctors I'm up late w/ @GMA fam before I go to hospital in the AM.'

The award-winning broadcaster postponed her scheduled bone marrow transplant following the news of her mother's death last Thursday, but sent her a last moving message from hospital this morning.

However following her mother's death the TV anchor wrote on the GMA website: 'Today I was supposed to be admitted to the hospital...instead I am here in Mississippi standing proudly with my family as we honor our beloved mother and celebrate her life.

Lucimarian Roberts, a leader on Mississippi's Gulf Coast for more than 40 years, died on Thursday August 30 at her home in Pass Christian aged 88, the family has not revealed the cause of death. Robin made a frantic dash to be by her mother's side before she passed away, taking her leave from GMA a day early. She has vowed to return to her Good Morning America hosting duties following her treatment and bid a temporary farewell to viewers on the ABC morning show last week. Presenters such as Diane Sawyer, Oprah Winfrey, Barbra Walters and Katie Couric will fill in for Ms Roberts while she is away.
 
She's been spotted out and about in a revealing white wedding dress and a crystal-adorned princess-style gown during her time in London. But Lady Gaga made sure to save the best until last when it comes to her wonderfully wacky choice of ensembles. Checking out of the exclusive Dorchester Hotel this afternoon after completing the London leg of her Born This Way tour, the 26-year-old singer reached a new height of madness with a fabulously flamboyant headpiece.

The hot pink turban-style hat featured swathes of clashing material and a gold crown at the front, with magenta feathers adding inches to the star's height. And despite being a New Yorker through and through, Mother Monster showed her patriotism to the UK with a large diamante Union Jack patch adorning the back of the headpiece. Gaga let her flamboyant headgear do the talking, by pairing the zany item with a relatively simple grey dress. But in true Gaga style, even that had a touch of the wacky, with the swathes of billowing material giving the impression the garment had been lifted straight off the set of a period drama.

As the star left her hotel in central London, she was met by a sea of Little Monsters, who were desperate to catch a glimpse of their idol before she headed up to Manchester for the next leg of her Born This Way tour. But the gown wasn't without its hazards, and Gaga almost took a tumble as she made her way to her waiting vehicle. And it would seem her eccentric fashion sense rubs off on her pals, with one of her assistants spotted leaving the hotel wearing a super-short white jumpsuit with fur-trimmed cuffs and towering nude platform heels.

Last night, the Edge Of Glory hitmaker fashioned a voluminous wedding dress as she enjoyed an evening out at the Arts club. Gaga teamed the dress, which featured a corseted top which struggled to contain her ample cleavage, with a net turban-style headpiece, satin gloves and sky-high cream heels. The singer's night out came after a spellbinding performance of her Born This Way Ball at Twickenham Stadium on Saturday night.

In her first live performance in the UK since December 2010, Gaga belted out her most famous tracks to a crowd of around 55,000 people. The singer also unveiled a new track in tribute to the late Princess Diana, called Princess D.I.E. Before playing the track in tribute to Diana, who died in a car crash in Paris in 1997, Gaga told the crowd: 'Since I was a very young girl, the people's Princess was the most important person in me and my mother's life. 'I swore if I ever had an audience like this in London I would take a moment to appreciate her. 'This song is called Princess Di - D-I-E... I predict controversy, but I don't care... Let's take a moment to appreciate her presence and what she means.'

In another shot, the brunette beauty looked teasingly towards the camera as she peeled a sheer black body stocking off her body. And the singer, who shot to fame on kids' TV show Miami 7, admitted she is now ready to unleash her 'inner raunchiness' to the world. She said: 'Having come from a teenybopper group, I’ve now got the opportunity to be sexier, so I’ve been able to unleash my inner raunchiness. It’s like an explosion!'

Tina is set to release her debut solo single, Fire, later this month, and she explained fans of her raunchy new look will be certain to enjoy her video. 'I’ve gone in a different direction and want to make an impact', she told Zoo. 'In the video I’m a seductress and deeply saucy. I think it was about time!' And despite embarking on a solo career, Tina hasn't ruled out reuniting with her former bandmates Rachel Stevens, Hannah Spearritt, Jo O'Meara, Paul Cattermole, Bradley McIntosh and Jon Lee for an S Club 7 reunion in the future. She added: 'We’re all talking, so you never know. The critics would have a field day, but then they were critical of a Steps comeback and look how well they’ve done.' Tina has kept a relatively low profile since the group parted ways back in 2003. During her time with S Club 7, she enjoyed four number on singles, a number one album and sold more than 15 million records worldwide. Zoo magazine is on sale now (Tuesday).

She split from fiance Alex Reid last week, claiming she had 'no option' but to call time on their troubled relationship. And as she left the couple's home in Brentwood, Essex, earlier today (Monday), the strain of the past few weeks was clear to see on the face of Chantelle Houghton. Stepping out with the pair's three-month-old daughter, Dolly, the 29-year-old reality star looked pained as she got into her car.

Wearing a white blazer, black leggings and flat ballet pumps, the usually bubbly blonde looked a far cry from her normal self as she went about her chores. Chantelle announced the couple's split via Twitter on Friday, saying: ‘Unfortunately I have no option but to end my relationship with Alex.’ It came after the 37-year-old cage fighter was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage at the pair's home in the early hours of Wednesday morning. And neighbours toldhow they were woken in the middle of the night by a 'screaming' Alex attempting to force his way in to the property.

One told the Daily Star: 'I could hear a man shouting and when I looked out I saw Alex Reid. 'He was screaming, "Let me in, f***ing let me in.’ Other people living in the street must have woken up because I saw a few lights go on".' He was since released by Essex Police without charge. But it would seem the events of the past week have also taken their toll on the father-of-one, as he resorted to spending Friday night alone snacking on KFC in his black Audi. The star cut a lonely figure as he went into the fast food chicken restaurant in Essex to pick up a meal for one, before pulling over in a lay-by to tuck into his greasy dinner.

Katie Price’s ex-husband was clearly still reeling from his split from former girlfriend Chantelle Houghton as his car was piled high with boxes of his possessions. Without anyone to spend his Friday night with and obviously with no permanent base to store his belongings, Alex seemed to be eating his problems away. Shovelling food into his mouth, he seemed a world away from the glamorous life he led with his model ex-wife.

After his lonely night, the 37-year-old reality star was seen leaving the couple’s home in Brentwood the next morning while his ex-girlfriend popped by later to pick up a few things. Wearing a sombre black outfit and basic make-up, Chantelle was clearly in mourning for the relationship that she put an end to last week. While it’s believed that the couple both still reside at the same address, they seem to be working out ways to avoid each other.

Her growing baby bump has been displayed in many glamorous outfits since she announced to the world that she was pregnant just a few months ago. And now Imogen Thomas has taken pregnancy chic to a whole new level – in a black bikini to show off exactly how much she’s grown. The 29-year-old glamour model is expecting her first child with boyfriend Adam Horsley in November.

The Welsh beauty explained to followers that she had no bikinis in her wardrobe that still fit her. She tweeted: ‘I have over 60 bikinis and not one fits! So gutted. Where can I get bikinis from this time of year? X’ But that didn’t stop Imogen for too long, as she was soon getting comfortable in the hot tub at the Penny Hill Park Hotel and Spa in Bagshot, Surrey. The reality star looked happier than ever before as she posted the snap on Twitter, telling followers: ‘Moi and @missrachaelc @pennyhillpark today :-)’ It is the most recent picture of the former Big Brother star showing her naked baby belly, and really shows off just how far along she is.

But Imogen appears to have put the worry behind her as she indulges in some well-earned rest at the luxury spa. A glowing Imogen was spotted shopping in Essex recently - and she even changed her outfit mid-shop to make sure she was extra comfortable. When pondering a birthday gift for boyfriend, Imogen took to Twitter once again to ask her followers for advice.
 
They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - so Kim Kardashian must be feeling rather chuffed today after Jada Pinkett Smith copied her look on the red carpet last night. Will Smith's wife wore Tom Ford's coveted backless, zipper dress in white to the premiere of Free Angela and All Political Prisoners, a black history documentary at the Toronto International Film Festival. The frock was worn by the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star at the BET Awards in July and Jada, 40, replicated the look right down to the hairstyle.

Jada added a touch of originality to the look with different heels and a suede clutch. The actress and her husband were both out in force to support the movie, which tells the story of radical activist Angela Davis and her imprisonment in the 1970s. Both are admirer of director Shola Lynch, and has been lending his star power to the production. They took along their famous children Jaden and Willow at the event.
