Kristen Stewart flashes some Snow White flesh as she films soaking wet beach scenes for new adventure movie

Labels:

It has been billed as a re-imagined and slightly twisted version of the fairytale classic.

And judging by today's on-set photographs of movie Snow White and the Huntsman, it certainly seems pretty far removed from Disney's fluffy cartoon take on the story.

Still smiling: Despite being wet Kristen Stewart was seen with a big smile as she filmed scenes from Snow White and the Huntsman

Leading lady Kristen Stewart spent the day soaking wet and showing a good few inches of flesh as she shot scenes for the film on a Welsh beach.

The actress looked to be taking part in some particularly dramatic scenes on the sands, and hoisted her soaking wet gown on as she walked along.

Wet and wild: Kirsten was being sprayed with water and wet costume stuck to her body showing off her curves

Flesh flash: Kristen Stewart shows off her shoulders as she filmed new movie Snow White and the Huntsman in Wales earlier today

After one scene, she was sitting alongside a stunning white horse, which was attended to by crew members.

In a contrast from yesterday in which she was seen sporting heavy armour, Stewart wore a long medieval style gown over long brown boots, with her hair loose around her shoulders.

Her hair also looked to be a darker shade than familiar to fans of the Twilight franchise.

Drama: The actress looks to be sitting alongside her white horse on the beach as part of a particularly dramatic scene on the beach


Life's a beach: The 21-year-old actress strolled along the beach in a soaking wet gown, at one point, holding up the dress as she strolled along some rocks

The white stuff: Stewart is shot filming a scene with the magnificent white horse

She seemed more than comfortable on horseback, although may have used a stunt double to canter across the beach for one bareback shot.

The actress was clearly having to maintain a wet and dishevelled look, with an assistant spraying her down with a water gun at one point.

Never with with children or animals: Kristen turned away as the horse relieved himself

Horse power: The actress sat astride her white horse as she waited for the scene to begin

Epic: The film promises to be an all-action telling of the classic fairytale

She also needed the crew's help to clamber over a rocky incline.

It wasn't all intense focus for the star though. She was later spotted breaking into a smile in a rest between scenes on a rocky section of the shore.

In another scene, she was spotted emerging from the sea in her gown - perhaps after a very refreshing dip, considering the cold Welsh waters.

New movie: Stewart stars alongside Chris Hemsworth and Ian McShane in the fantasy style film

Striking scene: Stewart, or possibly her stunt lookalike rides bareback across the sands for a stunning scene in the film

Stewart stars as Snow White alongside Australian actor Chris Hemsworth, who appears as male lead, The Huntsman.

In a twist on the children's fairy tale, the film follows the story of the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed.

However, he winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.

Time for more water: Kristen achieves the wet look with the help pf a crew member

Staying soaked: At one point a member of the crew sprays a rather shocked Stewart to make her stay wet for the seaside scene

Rock climbing: Stewart gets some help walking over the rocks from several members of the crew

Clamber: The Twilight star looked intensely focused as she walked over the rocks in one scene, although she broke into a smile when the footage was finished

The movie stars Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen and Ian McShane, Eddie Izzard, Bob Hoskins, Toby Jones and Ray Winstone among the dwarves.

Stewart recently revealed that she was not initially attracted to the role of Snow White, but became interested after realising the new version was a very different take on the classic character.

And action! The star is filmed with her dress sleeveless around the shoulders on the rocky incline

The sea the sea! Stewart wore a long black coat over her gown as she strode through the cold Welsh waters

'She truly does not let her heart cloud her mind,' the Twilight actress told Entertainment Weekly earlier this summer. 'Also I get to have a sword and stuff, and really cool weapons.

'This girl has the amazing ability to channel fear, things that people are typically afraid to do, into this really focused, really charged, driving energy,' she added.

Drenched: Stewart emerges from the ocean soaked to the skin, with her wet hair bedraggled down her back

Morning light: Stewart shares a joke with a female crew member as the sun starts to come up over the beach

The film - the first in a planned trilogy - is slated to be released in cinemas next year.

Stewart also appears as MaryLou in the adaptation of Jack Kerouac film On the Road, and stars in penultimate Twilight instalment Breaking Dawn, which will be released in November.

All dried off: The actress was also spotted with her hair and gown dry, in what was surely a more comfortable look, along with walking down the beach in a large black wrapped

'Eaten and spat out!' Dannii Minogue reveals her true thoughts on the X Factor as she promotes her new fashion book

My Style: Dannii spoke of her fashion blunders during an interview on ITV1's This Morning

She may have moved on from her role as panel judge, but it seems that Dannii Minogue still has the X Factor on her mind.

The Aussie star has claimed that there is never a happy ending for the show's judges and that her and Cheryl Cole are proof of that.

The 39-year-old singer songwriter, who gave birth to her son, Ethan, in July 2010, never wanted to leave the UK show.


Looking good: Aussie star, Dannii Minogue, promoted her new book at Waterstones in Bluewater wearing navy blue maxi dress

The star revealed her feelings during an interview on Heart FM.

‘It does eat all of us up and spit us out at the end,' she said.

Dannii, sister of pop star Kylie Minogue, went on to explain why she never returned for this year's talent show.

'The dates of the filming got put back twice and I'd already started Australia's Got Talent by the time they said, "Ok, here it is - let's do the show",' she said.

'It would've meant me flying back and forth from Australia once a week for ten weeks with a one-year-old child.


Mother-of-one: Dannii arrived at the ITV studios wearing a midi-length blue dress that was covered in a bird print


Front and back: Dannii looked radiant as she stepped out in the sunshine wearing a summer dress

‘I'd just got out of hospital three days before having my appendix out and I was like, "I'm sorry but it's not possible.

Dannii's blunt ending to her X Factor career bears many similarities to Cheryl Cole's - who left the UK to join the U.S. panel, only to be struck off after a few weeks.

The statement will be a shock to members of the new panel - Gary Barlow, Kelly Rowland and Tulisa Contostavlos - who all seem to have settled into their new roles very well.


Happy to talk: the singer took time to speak to fans and sign autographs when she was in London today


Mummy's boy: Dannii, pictured here with her son Ethan on the Australian X Factor, said on This Morning that she is constantly doing video calls with the tot


In the past: the former X Factor judge told Heart FM that her and Cheryl Cole had been 'eaten and spat out' by the show

'I blew hundreds of millions': How Hulk Hogan squandered his fortune during glory days

Big spender: Hulk Hogan appeared on GMA today where he discussed the hundreds of millions he has spent throughout his career


Former wrestling star Hulk Hogan has revealed he blew 'hundreds of millions' on a lavish lifestyle during his glory years.

The 58-year-old admitted he was now living in a rented home having slashed the price of his Florida mansion by $16m in a bid to get it off the market.

The WWE champion and actor talked candidly about his financial situation on Good Morning America just a day after it was revealed that he has slashed the price of his Florida home in a bid to sell it quickly.


'There are houses being bought, and cars being bought, and vacations for family members,' he said.

'There was eight, nine, $10 million, $11 million going out, so it got way off,' he said.

Asked about the state of his finances in the televised interview he said he was 'living in a rental house' but that he was 'living in abundance.'

'I'm happy now... I'm just so grateful,' he said.

Hogan spoke out as he promoted his new TV show featuring dwarves wrestling and called: Hulk Hogan's Micro Championship Wrestling.

But he also addressed the wife beating allegations levelled at him by his ex-wife Linda in her autobiography.

Memories: The former pro-wrestler discussed his marriage to ex Linda and how it compares to his life now

Linda claimed she put up with her husband's drug fuelled violence and was physically and mentally abused during their 23 year marriage.

Hogan denied that he ever hit his wife and said if he was violent towards her questioned why it was never mentioned in their divorce.

He said: 'When we were going through the divorce, and she was with her 18-year-old boyfriend, if I even was in the same town with her … she would file charges that I looked at her the wrong way at a red light, and wanted to have me put in jail.'

'So if I beat her up for 23 years, why didn't we talk about this at the divorce? And why, all of a sudden, is it coming out now, when her book's come out?'

On sale: Hulk Hogan has slashed the price of his Florida waterfront mansion by a staggering $11 million

Just yesterday it was revealed that the 58-year-old muscle man just reduced the price of the huge home to just $8.85m - the fourth reduction in price since the home was originally listed back in 2006 at $25m.

And it seems he's not above using his celebrity status to help unload the 17,000sq ft Mediterranean-style mansion, which has five bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, and sits on the scenic Gulf of Mexico, in Clearwater.

The description on Realtor.com reads: 'Located on an exclusive tree lined street in the residential Town of Belleair, this exquisite residence is owned by television personality Hulk Hogan.'

The two story home, which was built in 1996, features a gym and spa, five-car garage and a pool with a two-tier waterfall.

The Tudor style property also boasts vaulted beamed ceilings and dark hardwood or tiled floor throughout as well as expansive living areas and lush gardens.

Priced to sell: The huge Tudor style home has had the price slashed three times

Old fashioned: The traditional house has beamed and vaulted ceilings and dark hardwood floors throughout

Guest house: The home has a separate pool house and it's own dock

Hulk, whose real name is Terry Bollea, originally lived in the home with his ex-wife Linda, who filed for divorce from the star in November 2007.

The couple, along with their two children, Nick, 21, and Brooke, 23, filmed their reality show 'Hogan Knows Best' in the home.

Meanwhile, Hogan is currently getting slammed by mini wrestler Steve Richardson - aka 'Puppet the Psycho Dwarf' for allegedly ripping off his TV idea.

Steve, who is behind the little-person wrestling programme 'Half-Pint Brawlers' says that he's considering suing the Hulk for copying his venture.

Snug: There is a cozy living area with a large TV, log burning fireplace and even a wet bar

Enormous: Expansive rooms with high ceilings give the home an incredibly spacious feel

Master suite: The main bedroom has 20 foot ceilings and a giant en-suite bathroom

Hulk's latest TV idea is also a dwarf-fighting show - Hulk Hogan's Micro Championship Wrestling (MCW) and Steve says it's just not fair.

"I have no ill feelings toward Hogan, but loads of his wrestlers are the guys I fired," The 42-year-old said. "They're using all the ideas everything I came up with. There's no individuality. They're following the same concepts. It's a violation of intellectual property rights," fumed the 4'4" strongman.

MCW owner Johnny Greene says Steve is flipping out over nothing: "We had this idea first, but they rushed to the network to get their show on the air first, figuring whoever got on the air first would capture the audience," he said.

Spectacular views: Every room of the home looks out over the lush gardens and waterways beyond

Resort style: The home has a huge tropical pool and hot tub with it's own waterfall set amongst lush gardens

Former price tag: The house was originally listed for $20 million

"But their show sucked. They were doing midgets and 'Jackass,' and ours is a real wrestling show." Holding no punches Greene added: "Puppet's just trying to jump on the bandwagon because their business is dying."

Half Pint Brawlers, Inc was started 15 years ago but they have been having trouble holding down a TV series.

A spokesperson for Hogan declined to comment.

Ooh la la! Miranda Kerr shows off her long and toned legs as she shops in Paris in a very short leather skirt

Leggy in leather: Miranda Kerr showed off her long toned legs as she shopped in Paris today

It has been named as the European city with the worse traffic jams in the world.

But we suspect that faulty traffic lights, road works and general congestion may not have been entirely to blame for the queues across Paris today - but a leggy Australian model instead.

Because the sight of Miranda Kerr in a very short leather skirt that set off her long, toned and tanned legs no doubt caused many a car to come to screeching halt as she strutted by looking fabulous.


Sexy and slender: Miranda's height and slim figure were highlighted by the short skirt and high heels as she headed for Chanel


Me and the boys: Miranda was joined by a couple of male friends - possibly her stylists - on the shopping spree

The Victoria's Secret star was snapped walking through the French capital today with a couple of male friends, possibly her assistants, possibly her stylists.

And considering she had spent the previous day on planes from Los Angeles to London and then on to Paris from the UK - and with a baby - she looked remarkably awake and impossibly fresh.


There's my boy! Orlando Bloom looked delighted to be reunited with son Flynn as he held him up in the air and then gave him a kiss

Miranda, 28, was snapped along the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, considered to be Paris's, if not the world's, most fashionable street.

Every global fashion house has a store along the street and Miranda made the most of the fashions on offer as she popped into Chanel and was seen outside Lanvin.


How long are you guys staying? Miranda, husband Orlando Bloom and baby Flynn jet into Paris laden down with suitcases

Miranda is in Paris for the city's Fashion Week, which starts tomorrow, and follows on from London and New York.

She arrived in the city this morning and was joined by baby son Flynn and her actor husband Orlando Bloom.

He was reunited with his son and heir in London having not seen him since Miranda flew back to Los Angeles from New Zealand, where Orlando has been filming The Hobbit.
