Shakira and boyfriend's PDA as they cheer his team to victory

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER


Affectionate: Shakira and Gerard Pique share a passionate kiss in Barcelona, Spain, today where his Barcelona thrashed Osasuna 2-0


Shakira and her footballer boyfriend share a series of passionate kisses as they watched his team steam to victory today.

The very affectionate couple were spotted putting on a touchy feely show in the stands in Spain, where Gerard Pique's Barcelona teammates thrashed Osasuna 2-0.


Pique was not playing today, but a short bench at Camp Nou Stadium meant he had to sit in the spectator area.


Eyes not quite on the ball: Gerard enjoys being showered with affection by his pop star girlfriend while keeping a tentative eye on the match


Not that he was complaining.

The 24-year-old sportsman could barely wipe the grin off his face as his Columbian girlfriend, 34, showered him with affection.

Just days ago she was seen consoling Pique following Barcelona's defeat against bitter rivals Real Madrid in the Copa Del Rey Cup Final.


Happy couple: The Columbian singer only revealed she was dating the sportsman last month


Cheers: Shakira applauds after Barcelona's Lionel Messi's goal against Osasuna


Joy: Barcelona's players celebrate David Villa's goal


But thanks to goals from his teammates Lionel Messi and David Villa, things went much better for Barcelona today for the La Liga match.

Columbian singer Shakira only revealed she was dating the soccer ace last month, but they have proved how close they are on a number of occasions since then.

She confirmed her relationship with Pique last month when she posted a picture of the two of them on her Twitter account with the caption, 'I present to you my sunshine'.

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Proud wife: Megan Fox was happy to support husband Brian Austin Green at the Long Beach Grand Prix Celebrity Pro Race, today in Long Beach, California


Doting wife Megan Fox was all smiles as she watched husband Brian Austin Green compete in the Long Beach Grand Prix Celebrity Pro Race today in Southern California.

Casually dressed in a green t-shirt and tattered, cut-off shorts, Megan tried to blend in, but stood out the rest of the crowd with her flowing hair, svelte figure and high heeled sandals.

The Jennifer's Body actress smiled at fans and gawkers alike, as she was escorted to her seat in her very short shorts.


Friendly: Megan chatted with other fans as they watched the racing competition unfold
A few minutes later she was spotted chatting with other excited fans, as they watched the competition race into action.


Brian, who recently appeared on several episodes of Desperate Housewives, is an avid racer and last year finished third place competition.

Megan's weekend at the track comes after she received an apology from her Passion Play co-star Mickey Rourke earlier this week.


Ready for the competition: Brian Austin Green, who finished third in the competition last year, has been working to improve his race time


On Tuesday night while at a party, Rourke criticized her talents and their movie together in an interview with New York Magazine's Vulture entertainment blog.

Rourke called the movie 'terrible' and when asked about Megan, Vulture reported that the Oscar nominated actor 'smirked.'

A day later Rourke reached out to the blog to clarify his derisive remarks.

'When I talked to you, I was at a party. It was loud and crowded, I was in a sh**ty mood, ' Rourke said.

He continued, 'I don't know why I said that stupid sh*t... I love Megan. My bad.'


Family Affair: Kevin Jonas, who took part in the competition, was joined by brothers Nick and Frankie Jonas


Megan, who has remained mum about Rourke's embarrassing slip of the tongue, remained upbeat today as she attended the race in Southern California.

The Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, a three day auto racing competition which started yesterday, features professional race car drivers and draws thousands of fans.

But today, the competition was open to celebrity racers, with a portion of the money raised going towards scholarships to help local high school students pay for college.

'I genuinely enjoy getting dressed up and being girly': Olympic cyclist Victoria Pendleton

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Sexy: Olympic cyclist Victoria Pendleton looks stunning in tiny leotards and knee-high socks in ES magazine


She's the champion track cyclist whose hoping to achieve stardom when she competes in the London 2010 Olympics.

But sport isn't the only thing on Victoria Pendleton's mind, as she proved when she posed for a sexy new photoshoot for the Evening Standard's ES magazine.

The 30-year-old athlete dons tiny leotards and knee-high socks as she shows off her incredibly toned figure while pulling off some incredibly alluring poses on a bicycle in the new pictures.

And, in the accompanying interview, Pendleton insists she never used to feel pressurised into hiding her femininity, but now is proud to be a girly girl.


Athletic: Victoria admits she is a real girly girl and loves getting dressed up for any occasion


She told the magazine: 'It's a very strong stereotype, women in sport. When I first started racing internationally I would look at the girls and think, "My gosh, do I have to cut my hair off and get really big to show I'm committed?" There were a lot of doubters. People would say, "She's too small, too puny, too girly, why does she straighten her hair? She doesn't take it seriously."

'Well, because I have to sit in my room for hours before I compete, there's nothing else to do. You're not even supposed to move. So I get my eyeliner perfectly straight or do my hair.

'A lot of people assume I fulfill the role of a girly girl because I have to do it in order to be noticed but that's not it. I genuinely enjoy a good dress-up and always have done. I wouldn't want to change that for the world.'


Success: Pendleton is hoping to recreate her success at the London Olympics next year

Now the pressure is on for Victoria to perform well at the London Olympics next year - a prospect that is more than a little daunting for the athlete.

She said: 'It scares me more than it excites me, to be honest; the added pressure of home turf and higher expectations.

'But there are a lot of girly girls in the GB camp now, sitting at the dinner table going, "Ooh, that's a nice nail polish". It's a nice environment, and completely different from when I started.'
