Red Nose Day T-shirt for Comic Relief with shots of Mollie King, Gemma Chan, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Oliver Cheshire

Scarlet-lipped Mollie King adds a chic military twist to a Red Nose Day T-shirt to model for stunning Comic Relief portrait

Mollie King must have picked up a trick or two about modelling from her boyfriend David Gandy.
But the style credentials are all her own, as the fashion fan and two-time collection designer proved with her recent Comic Relief portrait. 
Tasked with modelling the Anna Hindmarch-designed bespoke Red Nose Day T-shirt, The Saturdays songstress styled it out with a military twist with an army-inspired blazer.

She smouldered through scarlet lips and wore her platinum tresses in tousled curls around her shoulders.
Showing off her charitable side for the March 13 event, she said, brought back 'lots of memories' of memories for the singer.
Mollie shared a throwback snap to her Twitter showing her and red-nosed band mates Rochelle Humes, Frankie Bridge, Una Healy and Vanessa White from 2009, when they posed in London's Leicester Square with comedienne Jo Brand.

And though it may have seemed like Mollie was going solo with the latest campaign, she was in fact in good company since boyfriend David was smouldering in his own RND portrait.  
The hunky M&S model showed off his muscular arms for a brooding shot wearing a red T-shirt.
His designer top rose up as he lifted both hands behind his coiffed hair and stared directly down the camera lens, provocatively.
Mollie and David only recently confirmed their romance after dating for 10 months in 2011 and reconciling in October 2014.

And it seems David already has high hopes for the relationship, telling Now magazine this week that he's contemplating starting a family with the singing star. 
'I would like to settle down and have children - and Mollie's a very special person. It's not something we've sat down and discussed but we're both on the same page with it. 
'I've always wanted to be a father. The timing might not be perfect right now, but I can't imagine it's far off.'

David's fellow M&S model Oliver Cheshire also fronts this year's charity campaign but his Tee of choice was a design by Henry Holland that reads: 'I think I may be the voice of my generation.' 
Lily Allen sports the same T-shirt in her shots but rocks an adorable pair of mouse ears and a Minnie-inspired red leather skirt while pulling a cheeky face for the camera. 
Even her brother and Game Of Thrones star Alfie Allen gets in on the action for the latest campaign and chooses a suitably cool braces and bowler hat combination to accessorise the T-shirt.

Meanwhile, for style stars including Jamie Campbell-Bower, Mary Charteris and Gemma Chan, it's all about abiding by the fashion rules. 
Gemma looked chic in a full fluffy skirt; a T-shirt tucked in at her petite waist and petite crown balanced on a slant.

Jasmin Walia turns up to Aladdin panto press night dressed as Princess Jasmine

Wishing for a part? Jasmin Walia turns up to Aladdin panto press night dressed as Princess Jasmine

Her first name is Jasmin and even she probably wouldn't disagree she likes to be treated like a princess.
However, perhaps dressing like Princess Jasmine from Aladdin when she isn't even in the pantomime was a bit over-the-top for TOWIE star Jasmin Walia.
The reality TV star went in full costume to the press night of the new production of Aladdin at the New Wimbledon Theatre in London on Monday night.

Clearly thrilled with her toned figure, Jasmin showed off her flat tummy in a blue cropped top and loose trousers.
Rather awkwardly, it appeared Jasmin was the only one who had gone in costume, with most of the celebrity guests leaving it up to the cast to do the dressing up.
    However, as panto fans know, there isn't a Princess Jasmine in the original Aladdin tale, having been conceived by Disney for their 1992 animation film.

    No doubt, Jasmin may have felt a bit disappointed to see her Princess doppelganger wasn't part of the stage production on Monday night.
    Missing out on the evening was Jasmin's TOWIE love interest Dan Osborne, who she has been enjoying friendly 'dates' with in the most recent series of the ITV2 show.
    However, she was in good company with another TOWIE co-star Frankie Essex who also attended.

    Following the show, she tweeted: 'Had the best time with my friends and family tonight #Aladdin.'
    The new production of the classic panto stars Jo Brand as The Genie and Matthew Kelly as Widow Twankey.
    Speaking recently about playing the Genie, Jo told the Daily Telegraph: 'I’ll try anything once, within reason.

    'And after doing stand-up for so long, which is a weird and solitary experience, I’m looking forward to being with a big group of people and having a laugh.'
    The production also stars musical veteran Oliver Thornton, known perhaps most famously for his role in the stage show of Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert, in the lead role of Aladdin.
    And the role marks something of a departure for Oliver, being his very first pantomime.

    He told Whatsonstage.com of the show: 'As a child I never saw a panto, so I didn't grow up with the tradition of going. I am having a great time and the script is so funny - I'm a convert.'
    Other stars in attendace at the press night included Eamonn Holmes, Sally Bercow, Lizzie Cundy, Amal Fashnu and Elen Rivas.
    Aladdin runs at the New Wimbledon Theatre until 12th January 2014.

    Comedians Greg Davies and Frank Skinner share passionate kiss on Let's Dance for Comic Relief

    All in the name of charity: Comedians Greg Davies and Frank Skinner share passionate kiss on Let's Dance for Comic Relief

    It's become a Comic Relief tradition to persuade two celebrities to kiss to raise money for charity.
    And this year it was no different as comedians Frank Skinner and Greg Davies were convinced to pucker up for charity on Saturday night.
    After Let's Dance For Comic Relief hosts Alex Jones and Steve Jones implored one of the men to kiss fellow judge Jo Brand, the comedienne made her excuses, claiming she had a cough.

    Steve had offered Jo the chance between Greg or Frank but she politely declined.
    Stepping back from the two men, she said: 'I'll leave it to you too.'
    After a slight hesitation, the two men squared up to each other, with lofty 6ft 8in Greg towering over 5ft 9 Frank.

    Inbetweeners star Greg, 44, ended up hoisting Frank, 56, in the air as they enjoyed a dramatic kiss.
    At one point, Frank wrapped his legs around Greg as they thrashed about behind the judges' panel watched by Jo.
    After they were finished, the pair looked rather tired and were all too ready to sit down and have a rest.

    The men's kiss follow in the tradition of previous Comic Relief kisses, including ones between Dawn French and Hugh Grant; and David Tennant and Davinia McCall.
    Meanwhile, Coronation Street actor Antony Cotton was crowned this year's winner of the annual competition with his tap-dancing routine.
    He narrowly beat West End star Jodie Prenger's cross-dressing routine to Cameo's Word Up.
