Five months after the birth of her first child, there is no doubt Jessica Alba has regained her fabulous figure.
The 27-year-old actress shows off her curves in a series of plunging beachwear and skimpy tops for a new calender.
The newlywed star poses with glass and bottles of Campari alongside a series of hunky male models for the Italian aperitif’s limited-edition calendar.

Only a few months after giving birth to her daughter Honor Marie Warren, Jessica has slimmed down to her pre-baby shape and looks as stunning as ever.
Following in the footsteps of previous Campari calendar girls Eva Mendes and Salma Hayek, the Sin City actress stars in 12 sexy shots for the hanging pictorial.
Jessica wore a series of designer bikinis during the shoot in Malibu as she was photographed by legendary lensman Mario Testino.

Who’s looking at you? Jessica strikes a sultry pose for the cameras in a white playsuit.

On set with her was five-month-old Honor, whose father is Jessica’s new husband, assistant director Cash Warren.
Jessica explained: ‘All the clothes were very cool. They’re young, sexy and fresh.
‘I’m usually walking around in comfy clothes with a baby on my arm and it’s nice to dress things up and feel sophisticated, sexy and surrounded by so much beauty.

In good shape: Jessica shows off her curves in a strapless catsuit.

‘Also being surrounded by Brazilian models made it even easier.
‘It was all very chic, but still young and cool, my favourite combination.’
Jessica is currently taking time out of her film career to raise baby Honor and enjoy married life with Cash, who she married three weeks before the birth.

The couple had been dating for four years after meeting on the set of the Fantastic Four, in which Jessica plays Sue Storm.
Last year, she filmed The Eye and The Love Guru, which both hit screens this year.
Next year, Jessica will return to the big screen in An Invisible Sign Of My Own.

Talk about falling in love with yourself. Well, U.S. singer Pink seems to know all about that.
In her latest music video Sober the star gives narcissism a try as she makes love to herself.
The sultry scenes see the So What singer don fishnet tights and a black bra as she gets acquainted with a double of herself.

Narcissistic: Pink kisses a double of herself in her new video Sober
The video was created using camera trickery and digital mastery in order to present a convincing interaction between the two Pinks.
Despite the title track, the singer hardly stays tee total during the video.
At times she is seen guzzling down alcohol and partying, and in one scene viewers will see Pink jostle with her clone’s bra straps.
She also appears in an angelic white wig at various intervals, complete with long white nails.

On Sunday night the star was out in force and performed at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles.
Other attendees included Beyoncé Knowles, Christina Aguilera and Rhiannna.

Low-cost airline Ryanair has flown into a storm after its latest charity calendar was branded sexist.
A series of glossy photos feature scantily-clad female cabin crew who look more like page three pinups than plane staff.
But despite raising money for homeless charity Dublin Simon Community, the calendar has already run into trouble.

Wet n’ Wild: The girls of Ryanair strip off for the 2009 charity calendar
The Institute for Women in Spain is considering legal action and intends to complain to Irish and EU authorities that the publication is sexist as it only features female models.
In a statement, it said: ‘It is significant that only women are used, in a sector in which there is a considerable percentage of men.’.

January: Miss Fuel Pump.

February: Miss Lookout
Spokesman María Jesús Ortiz claimed the images presented the women as ‘sexual objects.’
‘We’re not talking about morals or nudity here, it’s simply how women are portrayed,’ she said.
‘If there had been men in the calendar I’m sure there would have been no controversy.’
The Institute became involved after a complaint from consumer group FACUA, which claimed the images promoted macho behaviour.
‘The company is attacking the dignity of women workers in general and especially of cabin crew members, by presenting stereotypical images of these professionals which they have spent years struggling against,’ a spokesman added.
Last year’s Ryanair Cabin Crew Charity Calendar raised over 70,000 euros for the Angels Quest Charity.
A Ryanair spokesman said: “The 2009 edition, which was shot in Spain in September, is even more colourful and sexy and should sell like hot cakes,”.

March: Miss Check-in.

April: Miss Cockpit
“It will make the ideal Christmas present, or a New Year gift which will remind people not just of Europe’s favourite low fares airline, but the gorgeous girls you can meet on board Ryanair flights,” she added.
Ryanair has sent a free copy of the Ryanair Cabin Crew 2009 charity calendar to the FACUA which last year objected to Ryanair’s 2008 calendar.

May: Miss Engineer.

June: Miss Control Tower
The airline has also sent a free copy to Swedish politician Birgitta Ohlsson, who recently criticised a Ryanair advert which used a scantily-clad model.
The Dublin Simon Community’s Sam McGuinness said: “With Government funding constraints we now, more than ever, depend on the generosity of corporate supporters, such as Ryanair, to continue to provide services and shelter to those seeking our assistance.”.

July: Miss Take-off.

August: Miss Mechanic
Simon Community said the number of people requiring the assistance of its Rough Sleeper Team rose by 50% during the first half of 2008.

September: Miss Wet and Miss Wild.

October: Miss Safety
The charity said the Government should have done more during better economic times to eliminate homelessness as it claimed it is faced with the prospect of even more homeless people facing into tougher and less secure times.
The calendar can be purchased for ten euros either directly from Ryanair flights or through the Ryanair.com website.

November: Miss Hostess.

December: Miss Runuway
The Hollyoaks girls let their hair down, and got playful at a photo shoot for their new calendar.
Straddling a space hopper, blonde Zoe Lister messed around in the sun with fellow soap babes Roxanne McKee, Jennifer Metcalfe, and Gemma Merna, and Zoe Lister.
The Hollyoaks babes took time out while shooting the 2009 calendar at Thornton Manor in the Wirral, Merseyside.

Bouncy bouncy lady: Roxanne McKee appears to be loving the bouncy playtime.

Dressed in an assortment of lacy underwear and stilettos, the girls revealed their stunning figures in the grounds of the country house, as they enjoyed some downtime.
Luckily for us a photographer was on hand to see the scantily-clad girls at play.
Meanwhile Hollyoaks fans will be pleased to see some familiar faces returning to the Chester-based soap in the coming weeks.
Long-time stars Sarah Dunn and Darren Jeffries return for the on-off marriage of Steph and Max.

Jeffries played OB for 10 years, and only quit the teen soap in February, when his character followed girlfriend Summer to London.
Dunn left for pastures new in 2006 after playing blonde bombshell Mandy Richardson for more than a decade.

Mandy fled when her marriage to Tony (Nick Pickard) broke down following their daughter Grace’s death.
The stars are both to return in two weeks’ time, when Max and Steph finally put their differences aside to tie the knot in a hastily arranged ceremony.

It is difficult enough to get a plus-one ticket to the most prestigious showbusiness awards ceremony of the year.
But three of Hollywood’s biggest stars managed to sneak in an extra guest or two.
Cate Blanchett and Nicole Kidman were both carrying little stowaways at the biggest event on the movie calendar last night.

Looking swell: Best Actress nominee Cate Blanchett, who is expecting her third child in April, wore a brilliant aqua marine gown by Dres Van Noten to last night’s event
Miss Blanchett won the baby bump stakes on the red carpet. The best actress nominee, who is expecting her third child in April, wore a brilliant aqua marine gown created for her by Dres Van Noten.
Miss Kidman, 40, who is almost four months pregnant with her first baby, also dazzled in her custom Balenciaga gown and Bottega Veneta clutch, and a glittering diamond necklace designed by L’Wren Scott.

Proud mother-to-be: Nicole Kidman dazzled on last night’s Oscars red carpet in her custom Balenciaga gown and a 1,399-carat diamond necklace designed by L’Wren Scott
The sparkling necklace included a total of 7645 rough, faceted and polished diamonds totalling 1,399 carats.
A spokesman for designer L’Wren Scott yesterday confirmed that Nicole Kidman’s stunning diamond necklace had been custom made for the actress but would not comment on how much the piece was worth.
However, an expert from Hatton Garden – London’s jewellery quarter – said that the necklace would have a retail value of around £3million pounds.
Actress Jessica Alba, who is pregnant with her first child, wore a strapless empire line Markesa dress with Cartier jewellery.

So proud: Nicole’s husband Keith Urban accompanied her to last night’s event and kept a protective arm around her
Two nights earlier, Angelina Jolie had shown her bump for the first time on Friday evening at the Independent Spirit Awards.
She beamed as her partner Brad Pitt, 43, wrapped an arm around her waist. “I do not want people bumping into me so Brad is my protector,” she joked.
The couple have yet to confirm the pregnancy, which will be her second, but speculation is rife that the 32-year-old is expecting twins. Judging by the size of her bump at this early stage, the rumours could be well founded.

Baby bumps weren’t the only stunning accessories on the red carpet. Actress Rosamund Pike sparkled in diamond jewellery created by H Stern.
The star of screen and stage led the beauty stakes for Britain on the Oscar red carpet last night wearing a stunning canary yellow off the shoulder dress designed by Roland Lauret.
The London-based actress was with fiance the director Joe Wright who made the film Atonement which was up for seven academy awards including best picture.

Rosamund said that she and Joe started their morning with a French toast for breakfast and a three-hour drive to get the ceremony at the Kodak theatre in time because of heavy traffic.
Actor James McAvoy, leading man in Atonement, arrived at the ceremony with wife British actress Ann-Marie Duff wearing a blue gown created by Mosquino and matching saphire and diamond earrrings and ring.
The 28 year-old British actor said it was “incredible” to be at the Oscars.
He added: “What a great night for really intelligent film-making.”
He said Americans found Atonement “depressing and humorous” while most Britons laughed less at the film.
Best actor winner Daniel Day-Lewis arrived with his wife Rebecca. Day-Lewis said he was feeling “like a British rail sandwich, a little curled up at the edges.”
He added: “It’s been a great ride but you do set yourself up for unknown surprises at the Oscars.”
They have been trying to ditch their dubious reputation and work-hard play-hard image for decades.
But a dubious new calendar featuring scantily-clad Ryanair girls posing in the skimpiest of bikinis will do nothing to improve public perception of the trolley dolly.

Dubious: Miss January poses up in the cockpit
The girls, who look more like page three pinups than cabin crew, pout and pose in various locations around an airport and on-board their planes.
First there’s January pin-up Julia, showing off her ample assets in a barely-there white and black bikini coupled with a black hat.

Bare essentials: Miss June couples her bikini with cowboy boots
Then there’s Miss July Edita, reclining on a large wheel with a wrench in her hand and axel grease smeared over her bared torso.
The complement is joined by a selection of other Ryanair staff, all similarly attired in flesh-flashing bikini tops and bottoms.

Soap suds: Miss October shows off her cleaning uniform
The images are a long way from Ryanair’s usual uniform, demure buttoned-up blue suits and high neck blouses.
And though the girls are probably guaranteed to get flight-deck temparatures soaring, some might say they are not the best advert for children’s charity Angels Quest, which will receive proceeds from the calendar.

Cover-up: Miss April looks almost fully clothed beside her colleagues
Despite the risque nature of some of the images, the company claims the publication is good fun in a worthwhile cause.
Eddie Wilson, of Ryanair, said: “Ryanair’s gorgeous cabin crew are raising the cabin temperature with 2008’s hottest calendar.

Classic pinup pose: Miss February lies back and smiles for the camera
“Passengers will be able to bring a dozen of Europe’s most stunning cabin crew home for just £5.
“This exclusive Ryanair charity calendar will be on board for a limited period only – so we urge passengers to buy the next time they fly.”.

Mechanic: Miss July poses with wrench
The Girls of Ryanair Calendar 2008 will be available on board all flights from Saturday November 17, with money going to Angels Quest, which provides respite care for special needs children.

Demure: The girls in their usual blue suits
Big Brother pin-up Chanelle Hayes pulled on a pair of kinky boots and not much else for a sexy calendar photoshoot- and they are clearly not designed to do much walking.
The reality tv contestant has embraced the celebrity life after walking out of the Big Brother house, and now will have her own 2008 calendar, just like her celebrity idols.
Chanelle showed off her curves at the beachside shoot in Spain, clad in an animal print bikini and knee-high, Miss Whiplash style strap-up boots.

The 26-year-old, who is reported to be hoping TV bosses will welcome her back on Big Brother, showed plenty of skin for the sizzling modelling session.
But the Yorkshire girl modestly played down any ambitions for a career in modelling.

Rosy future: The Big Brother star seems to have a big future ahead of her with offers for more television shows
She told the Daily Star: “I’m loving doing all these shoots and stuff but I don’t think I will ever be a real model.
“I just don’t think I am pretty enough. Who’s going to want to look at me?”
Judging from the photos, it’s clear the Big Brother star doth protest too much.

Brief encounter: Chanelle joins her celebrity idols with her own bikini-clad 2008 calendar
Along with the calendar Chanelle seems to have a rosy celebrity future ahead of her, as Channel 4 bosses are said to have handpicked her for a new Big Brother-style show – only for beautiful people.
The 10-part reality show, Vanity Lair, hosted by Channel 4’s Alexa Chung, 23, will see a group of ‘beautiful people’ living together in a London mansion and competing for a £10,000 prize.
Channel 4’s Sangeeta Bhaskar said: “With Vanity Lair, we hope to challenge the viewers’ notions of what constitutes being attractive, whether it be based on looks, humour or charm.”.

Chanelle quit the Big Brother house after an expletive-laden argument with housemate Ziggy Lichman.
But it seems the tempestuous relationship, which ultimately led to Chanelle’s untimely exit, might not be completely over.
A hopeful source said: “When the show finishes she will sit down and have a heart-to-heart with Ziggy and sort out what is going on with them.”
