MARBELLA CLUB

Simon Cowell’s ex-girlfriend Jackie St Clair, who is a regular at the five-day meeting, wore an elegant grey dress and contrasted this with a larger-than-life bright yellow hat – perfect for a sunny summer’s day.

Danielle and Gary Lineker were also in attendance and did their best to take the crown as the new Posh and Becks with Danielle posing in a nude Victoria Beckham design – she even had the pouting pose on the go.

Danielle’s outfit was given the edge with an on-trend floppy hat and Gary scrubbed up well in his top hat and tails.

Holly Valance added a little sophistication to the day with a black knee-length dress and went against the grain of oversized hats by opting for a small, folded tilt hat.

There were also those in attendances who decided to take their hat off to mark the venues 300 year anniversary.

UK Natural History presenter Anneka Tanaka-Svenska stood out from the crowd with a two foot headpiece of blonde hair with pink and green roses. The hat was designed by Louis Mariette and inspired by the Queen Anne period.

Hatmaker and designer David Shilling also dressed for the occasion, wearing a black top hat decorated with two cocktail glasses, some red white and blue balloons and some bank notes and candles to spell out the phrase Happy Birthday.

Racegoers applauded members of the Royal family - the Queen, Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall and princess Beatrice and Eugenie - as they entered the parade ground in a traditional horse drawn royal carriage procession.

The Queen dressed in pale green and wore an Angela Kelly hat which was decorated with a pale pink, blue and nude weaved bow.

There was also a sense of anticipation as Princess Beatrice arrived, following her controversial Philip Treacy hat at Will and Kate’s royal wedding.

However, this time the 22-year-old opted for a more traditional design - a fawn coloured wide brimmed hat accompanied with an elegant nude and black outfit.

This safe choice left others the opportunity for their moment in the hat spotlight …and boy were there plenty of people ready to take on the role!

Forbes' annual list of the Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30 is out once again, and joining it this year are a number of new faces—including Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood—while Twilight stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart maintain their staying power.
All told, 20 young celebs raked in a total of $690 million between May 2010 and May 2011. But topping them all is the diva herself, Lady Gaga. So how did she and her fellow fame monsters do?


Coming off the massive success of her recent Monster's Ball tour, an HBO special and an appearance on the finale of American Idol, the 25-year-old hitmaker took the top spot by grossing $90 million this year. That figure is based on the $170 million her Monster's Ball trek earned from 137 shows in 22 countries and the 15 million albums she sold worldwide during this past year—not counting sales of Born This Way, which dropped last month.
Bieber meanwhile landed in second place with $53 million in earnings at the tender age of 17, the youngest to grace the chart this year. Much of that money hailed from his world tour and 3-D film, Never Say Never, tallying $100 million globally.
Meanwhile, Miami Heat star LeBron James can take heart. He may have choked in the NBA Finals on Sunday, but his $48 million nabbed him third place on Forbes power list, which also includes a smattering of sports stars.
In the fifth spot is 21-year-old Swift who raked in $45 million based on touring and various endorsements, while sixth place went to Katy Perry with $44 million.
Other musicians singled out by Forbes include Rihanna, in 10th place based on the $29 million the "Umbrella" singer generated from her tour and album sales, including her most recent, Loud. Miley Cyrus also made the cut with $15 million, while Underwood's country career has propelled her to $15 million in income for 19th place.
Last but not least, Twilight's lovebirds R.Pattz and K.Stew tied for 15th place with $20 million each, much of that of course coming from the popular franchise but also other non-Twilight flicks as well (like Stewart's The Runaways and Pattinson's Water for Elephants). And both are expected to stay strong with the release of the final Twilight two-parter, Breaking Dawn.
