Katie Price leaves little to the imagination in tiny black leotard as she shows off face lift results at glam celeb bash

KATIE Price left little to the imagination as she stepped out in a barely-there black leotard for a glam celeb bash.

The 46-year-old showed off the results of her brand new face lift as she mingled with fellow celebs at the White Fox Boutique event in London.

Katie appeared to be flying solo without her boyfriend JJ Slater as she made her way into the celeb-packed party.

She put her surgery-honed curves on full display as she risked a wardrobe malfunction in her tiny outfit.

The leotard came complete with a see-through skirt which allowed the former glamour model’s assortment of tattoos to be visible underneath.

The results of her recent facial surgeries were clear to see as she showed off her chiselled jaw line after jetting abroad to have an assortment of work done on her face.

Katie kept her hair tied up for the party as she struck a variety of poses in front of a huge sign brandishing the fashion brand’s logo.

She was not the only famous face at the party with Love Island stars Harriett Blackmore, Megan Barton Hanson, Jessy Potts, Abi Moores and Paige Thorne all in attendance too.

Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry also attended the bash as did The Only Way Is Essex favourite Freddie Bentley and Junaid Ahmed.

Surgery obsessed Katie left fans worried just a few days ago as they were quick to express their concern following her latest round of tweakments.

She underwent £10k worth of procedures including a facelift and a breast reduction – just months after having an operation to take her to her biggest boobs ever.

However, fans were worried that her eye appeared sore in the aftermath of her surgeries after she uploaded a snap to Instagram.

One said: “What is the matter with your eye, it looks sore?”

Another fan questioned: “Can you still blink?”

And one more echoed: “Can you close your eyes?”

Katie previously admitted her surgery had left her struggling to see.

1999 – Katie had two more boob jobs in the same year, one taking her from a C cup to a D cup, and then up to an F cup

2006 – Katie went under the knife to take her breasts up to a G cup

2007 – Katie had a rhinoplasty and veneers on her teeth

2008 – Katie stunned fans by reducing her breasts from an F cup to a C cup

2011 – Going back to an F cup, Katie also underwent body-contouring treatment and cheek and lip fillers

2014/5 – Following a nasty infection, Katie had her breast implants removed

2016 – Opting for bigger breasts yet again, Katie had another set of implants, along with implants, Botox and lip fillers

2017 – After a disastrous ‘threading’ facelift, Katie also had her veneers replaced. She also had her eighth boob job taking her to a GG cup

2018 – Katie went under the knife yet again for a facelift

2019 – After jetting to Turkey, Katie had a face, eye and eyelid lift, Brazilian bum lift and a tummy tuck

2020 – Katie has her 12th boob job in Belgium to correct botched surgery and a new set of veneers

2021 –  In a complete body overhaul, she opts for eye and lip lifts, liposuction under her chin, fat injected into her bum and full body liposuction

2022 – Katie undergoes another brow and eye lift-and undergoes ‘biggest ever’ boob job in Belgium, her 16th in total

2023 – Opting for a second rhinoplasty, Katie also gets a lip lift at the same time as well as new lip filler throughout the year

2024 – Katie has her 17th boob job in Brussels after revealing she wanted to downsize. She performed at Dublin Pride just days later and surgeons warned the lack of recovery posed a risk of infection

But she warned trolls that nasty comments no longer affect her because she is stronger than ever after overcoming a dark period of her life.

However, her children Princess, 17, and Junior, 19 – whom she shares with ex-husband Peter Andre – are said to be “angry and embarrassed” over her latest surgery.

A source told Closer: “Princess worries about all her mum’s cosmetic surgeries and thinks that Katie is surrounding herself with people who don’t tell the truth.

“Instead, they’re giving her the green light to keep going, but it’s not their body, and she’s not their mum.

“Princess is angry and Junior is embarrassed – he’s said Katie is cringe and needs serious help.”

I bought a Land Rover for just £300 – there’s a problem but with an easy fix it’ll be worth £1,000s

A CAR enthusiast has revealed how he bought an old Land Rover for just £300, with plans to sell it after an “easy fix”.

Matthew Goodwin picked up the “potentially problematic” 2009 Land Rover Freelander 2.

Matthew from High Peak Autos in Romiley, Greater Manchester, catalogued his journey to pick up the motor on Youtube.

Speaking on his Youtube channel Matt said he was told the car could have a blown head gasket.

He said: “Now I wouldn’t normally buy a car like this, but I thought for £300, I can’t really go wrong.”

The 2009 Land Rover Freelander 2 has 2.2 turbo diesel engine.

Matthew said: “I’ve never had an issue with a 2.2, that’s why I’m finding it hard to believe that this one has a blown gasket.

“What I’m hoping for here guys, is that this has been misdiagnosed.”

He added: “Now I don’t know the symptoms. I don’t know whether it’s overheating, I don’t know whether it’s got coolant in with the oil.

“I really don’t know.”

After inspecting the car, Matthew was relatively optimistic.

Checking out the interior, he said: “Inside is pretty filthy.”

“This would clean up alright, I think.”

A quick inspection under the bonnet revealed no obvious issues.

However, after a quick test drive to get the vehicle cleaned, Matthew noticed a problem.

The lack of warm air from the air conditioner was indicative of a gasket issue according to the car enthusiast.

The problem became even more evident after another test drive, where Matthew filmed himself stranded on the side of the road after the car overheated.

He said: “I was hoping it would be a simple fix but it does have a blown head gasket.”

According to Matthew, the simple fix could be “anywhere from £500 to £1500”, and would increase the car value.

It’s not the first time Matthew has turned roadside scrap, into a profit.

He previously bought a £500 Volvo hatchback, serviced it and listed it for almost £3,000.

The 2007 dark blue Volvo C30 had been in line for the scrap before a viewer of Matt’s YouTube channel reached out to him about the car.

Matt then swooped in to nab the car at the eye-watering price of just £500 before he set about getting it fixed.

The total cost for the vehicle and its repairs came out to £1468.20.

This could be split down into:

  • £500 for the car
  • £120 for its transport from Leicestershire
  • £217 for repairs with Matt’s mechanic
  • £120 for seat repair
  • £150 for valet and tint removal
  • £346.20 for brake repair
  • £15 for new number plates

Matt listed the vehicle for £2995 towards the end of summer and given it is no longer listed on High Peak Autos’ website, we can assume it was sold.

If it sold for its asking price, that gives Matt a hefty profit of £1526.80, more than three times the price he paid for the car.

Firm linked to exploding pagers in Lebanon linked to shabby, anonymous apartment block in Gulgaria

A FIRM linked to exploding pagers in Lebanon is registered to an anonymous, shabby apartment block in Bulgarian capital Sofia.

Norta Global Ltd is among hundreds of foreign companies listed at a ground floor attorney’s office there.

Bulgarian security agency Dans entered the building yesterday as it said it will probe any links to the sale of pagers to Hezbollah.

The devices exploded across Lebanon in coordinated attacks this week.

Bulgarian media reported Norta Global took delivery of parts from Taiwan before manufacturing the pagers.

At some stage, they were turned into weapons.

Hungarian company BAC Consulting was also linked but said it was only an “intermediary” to a deal with a Taiwanese supplier.

Norta Global chief Rinson Jose has fled to the US.

A source said: “His colleagues have tried to reach him, but he’s on business in America and is not answering calls.”

Israel launched spy movie pager plot to lure Hezbollah into war…& destroy them once and for all, ex-Mossad agent warns

BY James Halpin, Foreign News Reporter

ISRAEL’S pager plot could be inspired by a spy film and the country is goading Hezbollah into starting a war, an ex-Mossad agent says.

Nearly 3,000 people were injured on Tuesday and 12 were killed in the sabotage attack leaving Lebanon in chaos and hospitals full of bloodied and injured.

Avner Avraham claims Israel is directly challenging Hezbollah to start a war in retaliation, so it can then invade Lebanon and wipe them out.

Avraham says the chess move attack was Israel saying: “Don’t mess with us”.

He said: “The attack on Tuesday was so strong and wide if they [Hezbollah] do start a limited war, they will lose immediately.  

“In the north, we have to start a limited war and we prefer that Hezbollah would make the first mistake.

“The response would be a huge damage to Lebanon, it would go 100 years back.”

But, the 28-year spy veteran says Hezbollah has been left weak with so many people injured and Lebanon plunged into chaos.

“Now they don’t have a different kind of communication system, all their hospitals are full with injured people, this is the best time to attack them.”

Avraham said he believed Israel needed to attack Lebanon and create a “dead zone” inside the country where nobody lived.

That buffer would provide safety for the Israelis living in the north of the country – tens of thousands of whom have been displaced since fighting began last year.

“To bring back the families to the north, you cannot bring them to the world without destroying and pushing all the Hezbollah from the border.”

Avraham also said it is possible that the attack could have been inspired by gadgets used in spy films, something he did as an agent.

“Sometimes we use examples ideas from James Bond films, we took ideas, I can tell you this for sure.

He said: “No one could write the script for Tuesday. This is the real example of thinking outside the box… All the world saw what happened Tuesday, this is the money time.

“If Mossad is doing something and wants to declare it, they will declare it… In all cases they just do it and disappear.

“That’s the whole idea, you don’t know who is responsible for this, you don’t have any idea.”

The Substance film review: Demi Moore is unlike you’ve ever seen her before in this gory body horror

THE SUBSTANCE

(18) 140mins

Working Title
Demi Moore stars in The Substance as Elizabeth Sparkle[/caption]

FOR many, Demi Moore will always be associated with that tender pottery making scene in Ghost.

But if you choose to watch The Substance that image will be smashed and pulverised into eternal oblivion.

This is the least gentle movie you’ll see this year, or perhaps even this decade.

The Substance grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go for over two hours of pumping, garish, gore-laden, head-messing madness.

I spent much of the time wincing, shuddering and trying my best to keep my eyes open as needles repeatedly pierced skin, while body parts ended up in places they should never be.

The craziness begins when Demi’s character Elizabeth Sparkle is offered a secret drug called The Substance which promises a new improved version of herself.

The 50-year-old TV star Sparkle, who has been heartlessly dumped from her workout show, takes the plunge.

Out pops Sue, played by Margaret Qualley who is half Demi’s age, to admire her naked, nubile body.

Elizabeth rests while Sue steps out in the world.

The one rule the pair must observe “without exception” is that they need to swap roles every seven days.

As you can imagine things don’t quite go to plan.

French director Coralie Fargeat delivers this satire on our beauty obsession with great wit.

The opening and final scenes are a delicious take down of fame.

But The Substance is about as subtle as a needle being jabbed in your backside.

All the men are cartoonishly vile specimens.

That’s not a problem when Dennis Quaid is not only chewing the scenery but spitting it out in the most OTT performance of his career.

And it’s not like the women are particularly saintly.

Neither Sue or Elizabeth care little for anyone, not even their other selves.

Massive credit should go to Demi for an Edvard Munch-like Scream of a performance, one which you’ll not be able to forget because it will give you nightmares.

It could be argued that this mash-up of Cinderella, Beauty And The Beast and The Fly isn’t saying anything particularly new.

But it’s just the injection of energy that cinema needs right now.

200% Wolf, the sequel to kids’ movie 100% Wolf will leave parents howling at the moon[/caption]

THE great thing about little ones is that they’re easily pleased – give them a cardboard box to play in and they’ll be happy.

The bad thing is that kids’ movie makers know this.

That’s how you end up with 200% Wolf, an animated sequel to 100% Wolf that young children will lap up, but which will leave their parents howling at the moon.

Someone has thrown a whole load of elements that entertain infants – dogs, wolves, rainbow colours, magic and a cute creature from outer space – into a very recognisable plot.

Our main character Freddy Lupin (Ilai Swindells) is your typical outsider, a werewolf who isn’t accepted by the pack because he’s a poodle.

It’s an amusing idea undone by often repeated lines involving “misfits” and hackneyed dialogue about “the balance” being threatened.

His quest to help a cute alien go home is familiar as well.

To be fair the Australian made animation is decent quality and there are some amusing slapstick gags.

Jennifer Saunders also livens up proceedings as the voice of Max, a werewolf cast out for performing dangerous magic.

But it’s hard not to conclude that this script required 0.200 per cent effort.

THE GOLDMAN CASE

French courtroom drama The Goldman case centres on one very irate man – Pierre Goldman[/caption]

NEVER mind 12 Angry Men, this French courtroom drama centres on one very irate man – Pierre Goldman.

Having been jailed for murdering two pharmacists in a botched robbery in 1969, Goldman spends most of his appeal against his conviction raging at anyone within spitting distance.

The “racist” police, “fascist” judiciary and even his own lawyers get a mouthful.

Arieh Worthalter puts in a pugnacious performance as far-left radical Pierre, his contempt simmering under the surface whenever he’s not erupting.

Ably supported by an excellent cast, it is the superb acting that keeps the Goldman Case alive.

But given that the real life Goldman had such an action packed story of guerilla warfare, boozing and carousing to tell, it’s a shame this drama never gets out of the dock.

Director Cedric Kahn gropes for something far more intellectual, musing on justice and prejudice.

Is everyone out to get Goldman because he’s Jewish? Or is there something else beneath all that anger?

Despite presenting this as a detached study of historical events it is clear Kahn wishes to steer the audience in a particular direction..

Meanwhile, too much shouting conspires to wear you down.
