A sun-kissed Bill Clinton caught up with his favourite James Bond actor, Pierce Brosnan, on a trip to Hawaii this week.

Not only is the former U.S. President, 70, an avid fan of the spy films, but he once declared Brosnan the ‘perfect’ Bond.

Looking as cool as his unflappable on-screen alter-ego, Brosnan, 64, sported a deep tan and flashed his pearly whites, while his 16-year-old son Paris (whose mother is Brosnan’s second wife, Keely Shaye Smith) seemed at ease, with his arm over Clinton’s shoulder.

The trio were adorned with Hawaiian floral garlands around their necks as they dined on the private boat.

‘A summer evening sail to Diamond Head,’ Brosnan, star of Die Another Day, captions the snap.

Answering questions on the BBC’s gender pay gap, Culture minister Lord Ashton said he served a female Prime Minister, a female leader of the Lords and a female secretary of state. ‘When I recover from that — I mean when I go home after a very pleasurable day — I go home to a wife and four daughters,’ the peer said, narrowly averting a career-ending blunder.

The Queen’s granddaughter, 36, failed to stifle a yawn as she competed in a show jumping event

Partied-out Zara's back in the saddle



Zara Phillips’ lively holiday in Ibiza with her husband, ex-rugby player Mike Tindall, appears to be taking its toll.

The Queen’s granddaughter, 36, failed to stifle a yawn as she competed in a show jumping event at the Dauntsey Park Horse Trials in Wiltshire this week.

Just days before, she was pictured frolicking with her Mike, 38, at a beach bar, where they were joined by friends including England rugby star James Haskell.

Ever the professional, Olympian Zara endured her fatigue as she rode two of her horses, Gladstone and Drops Of Brandy.

Defending his client’s £1.8m BBC salary, Jon Holmes, Gary Lineker’s agent, reveals that the Beeb isn’t the worst gender offender.

‘I represented a female sports presenter who was told by a broadcaster she would never present football, and to make sure she got a good job before her looks went,’ said Holmes. The sexist tale might sound familiar to Gabby Logan, whose 2006 defection to the BBC was masterminded by Holmes, after ITV replaced her with Steve Rider as its top football presenter.

Koo's little girl towers over mum

PRINCE Andrew’s ex, Koo Stark, still knows how to turn heads — albeit with a little help from her daughter.

Stark, 61, was snapped walking in Knightsbridge with leggy Tatiana, 20, whose father is American financier Warren Walker.

Stark’s 18-month romance with Prince Andrew ended in 1983 when it emerged she had starred in the 1976 erotic film Emily.

Tatiana, who is the Duke of York’s goddaughter, was the subject of a legal battle when she was three. Koo tried to sue Walker for breach of contract, loss of earnings and emotional distress, but the action collapsed.
