X-PRESSO How Sabrina Carpenter swapped Disney for controversy… from sex shock to affairs
'It is the place to be when staying in London.'
Last month our sister column Bizarre revealed that Bey moved out of the plush hotel to make way for Mariah, who flew into London for Capital's Summertime Ball.
The Crazy In Love singer was staying at the Corinthia's penthouses for her gigs at the Tottenham Stadium.
Sabrina performed at BST Hyde Park last night and is due to take to the festival's Great Oak Stage tonight where she will be supported by singers Amber Mark, Olivia Dean and Clairo.
And I have heard that the Espresso singer has been working hard to make sure her performance is flawless.
An insider told me: 'Sabrina spent four days in Hyde Park last week rehearsing for her shows — that is the most an artist has ever dedicated to getting their set perfect.

'She had three backstage areas at BST — one for her band, another for her dancers and a private space for herself.
'The private area had its own veranda and a bed for her.'
In Hyde Park earlier this week, she was spotted testing a crane, which forms part of her jaw-dropping show.
Sounds like Sabrina will reign over the capital.

FAREWELL SABBATH FOR OZZY

Ozzy Osbourne took to his throne as the Prince of Darkness for his final performance

OZZY OSBOURNE took to his throne as the Prince of Darkness for his final performance with Black Sabbath last night.
The Iron Man hitmaker was joined by his original bandmates Tony Iommi, Terence 'Geezer' Butler and Bill Ward for the Back To The Beginning concert at Villa Park in the band's home town of Birmingham.
Ozzy, who has publicly battled Parkinson's disease in recent years, perched with his cloak draped ceremoniously around him. He was supported by wife Sharon Osbourne.
His son Jack Osbourne spoke ahead of the momentous gig.
Asked if Ozzy was nervous, he said: 'I think it is every emotion. He is so excited about performing again and so excited about getting on stage.
'December 2018 was the last time he did a full gig – that is how long it has been.
'This is the reunion that normally only happens, sadly, at someone's funeral – but it is so great to be here. It is the history of heavy metal in one venue. That kind of sums it up. It is a rollercoaster.
'I think this is most likely going to be his last full performance. But he still intends to make music.'
And in true Ozzy style, he did not hold back with his final look. Ozzy's tailor Sir Tom Baker told Biz on Sunday that he had designed a leather 19th-century frock coat with a two-and-a-half metre train for the music legend.
Sir Tom, who spent weeks on the outfit, explained: 'It's very high shine – it looks like water. We decorated it with leather trimming and gold skull buttons. It has dramatic, ghoulish shoulders.'
Meanwhile, punk rocker Yungblud said he was invited by Sharon Osbourne to sing at Villa Park in support of Ozzy.
He told me: 'I've known Ozzy for years. Uncle Ozzy, man. He gave me a gold cross a couple of years ago. So I've given him back one in return.
'To be a close personal friend of his now, and to be a member of the family with him – he's my blood.'
Sir Tom added: 'Ozzy and Sharon are lovely people. They are stronger than ever – she dotes on him. It's lovely to see.
'They seem to trust each other implicitly. She has a say over matters, but he is just as strong in the balance.'
Yungblud, who performed a cover of Black Sabbath ballad Changes last night, added of the gig: 'It's an honour to be a part of it. Ozzy has been one of my idols since I was two.'

PAUL MESCAL and his Normal People co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones were still in the Glastonbury spirit on Friday night.
The pair were among the crowd at British Summer Time in London's Hyde Park watching Paul's girlfriend Gracie Abrams perform with US singer Noah Kahan.
An onlooker said: 'Paul was cutting it fine as he rushed through and grabbed his ticket.
'He beelined to the VIP section to watch from the Diamond area.'
Last week I revealed Paul was singing along to Gracie's set on Glastonbury's Other Stage alongside pal Daisy.
Meanwhile, Lewis Capaldi made a surprise appearance on the Great Oak Stage on Friday night following his comeback at Worthy Farm last week.
Lewis, who is No1 with his new single Survive, joined Noah for the latter's track Northern Attitude at Hyde Park.
Festival season is still in full swing.

SAM THOMPSON is not returning to the spin-off show I'm A Celebrity: Unpacked as a permanent presenter.
Instead former King of the Jungle Sam, who was a mainstay last year alongside Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers, will get a guest stint.
A source said: 'Sam isn't returning full time, but Joel and Kemi definitely are.
'Apparently there was a schedule issue, but he's still part of the ITV family – in fact he's a busy man.
"He's got DNA Journey which is now on air and was recently announced as part of (new prank show) Celebrity Sabotage.'
Sam's been unlucky in love, after splitting with Zara McDermott and then Samie Elishi.
Hopefully, his bromance with Pete Wicks is still going strong.
MARGOT AI ALERT
MARGOT ROBBIE has revealed her fears about using AI in the film industry.
The Barbie actress, who founded production company LuckyChap Entertainment with her husband Tom Ackerley in 2014, said at Glastonbury's Pilton Palais cinema tent: 'I think filmmakers using it as a tool to enhance their vision is the best version of it.
'I think the fact that it is progressing so much faster than anyone can keep up with – and to create any sort of rules around it – then it is going to cause problems in our industry.'

SAM FENDER has been forced to pull out of his European festival tour due to a vocal haemorrhage.
The Seventeen Going Under singer revealed that he received the devastating diagnosis after headlining the British Grand Prix Opening Concert at Silverstone on Friday night.
He posted on Instagram after his performance: 'At the beginning of the week I got my voice checked by my ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor and the cords were slightly swollen.
'After a few days' rest I was advised by my team that I was okay to perform.
'On stage at Silverstone I could feel that things were a lot harder than usual, I felt I needed to push a lot harder to sing – this is never a good sign.
'I've just been checked by my ENT again today, as I was concerned about it, and it's transpired that I have had a haemorrhage on one of my vocal cords.'
Sam, who recently wrapped a huge UK summer stadium tour, has cancelled his upcoming performances at Rock Werchter in Belgium , Down The Rabbit Hole in The Netherlands, NOS Alive in Portugal and the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland.
He added: 'I'm so sorry to everybody who is coming to those festivals with our show in mind.
'Our fans are the most important thing to us.
'I hate letting people down and I hate not being able to sing for weeks as it is my only real passion in life.'
I hope you are back to feeling your best soon, Sam.
ED'S TOP SONG FAILS TO SHAPE UP FOR HIM
STREAMING service Apple Music has celebrated its tenth anniversary by crowning Ed Sheeran's 2017 hit Shape Of You as its most popular song, with more than 930 million plays.
But Ed told Apple Music's Zane Lowe he has never considered it his best track. He said: 'I've never seen Shape Of You as that song for me, as the song that I will be remembered for.
'But it's weird – everywhere I go in the world, because we travel everywhere and we play everywhere, and we went to Bhutan recently, and that song kicked off there.'
CAPITAL Radio host Will Manning has revealed that his wedding to girlfriend Georgia Haldenby will be filled with his favourite artists.
He told Biz on Sunday: 'Mimi Webb is singing, Zak Abel and Tom Grennan.'
The DJ, who recently released his latest track I Believe, will spin some tunes for his wedding guests at the Four Seasons in Hook, Hants, next month.
STRICTLY star Tasha Ghouri has revealed that the BBC dance show has 'opened doors' for her career.
The former Love Islander told me at the TRIC Awards in London: 'My demographic is bigger now, which is lovely.
'Strictly has definitely opened many more doors – especially with the BBC.'
Tasha, who finished as runner-up last year, added: 'I have got some stuff coming up.
'I can't say, but it is super exciting.'

Best new mobile games on iOS and Android – July 2025 round-up
July is a bumper month for smartphone games, including the all-new Persona 5: The Phantom X for iOS and Android. Although the summer months are traditionally a period when video game release schedules enter their version of hibernation, on mobile things are still bustling. Supercell in particular have been busy, with a major update for the ailing Boom Beach and an even bigger one for Clash Royale; that adds a new turn-based auto battler game mode based on Clash Mini, a game the developer abandoned last year following a multi-country test launch. Also out this month is the English subtitled version of Persona 5: The Phantom X, which is far from ruined by the addition of light gacha mechanics; the Apple Arcade version of Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance TD; and a fresh outing in the excellent Meteorfall deck builder series, Rustbowl Rumble. iOS, free – full game £4.99 (SMG Studios) Marooning you light years from Earth, No Way Home is a twin stick shooter with role-playing elements, blending exploration and shooting with an addictive drip feed of upgrades for your ship, each of which looks, sounds, and feels satisfyingly consequential. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. Appropriately for a game focused on shooting, weapons handling and the feel of piloting your ship are refined and responsive, working perfectly on touchscreen and obviating the need for a Bluetooth controller. Although the majority of missions boil down to flying somewhere and shooting up a bunch of aliens, the wry script and voice acting help provide a solid distraction, in this polished and hugely entertaining mobile port, that was previously only available to Apple Arcade subscribers. Score: 8/10 iOS, free – full game £6.99 (Luke Muscat) Borrowing some of its mechanics from the relatively little known Ocean Keeper: Dome Survival, Feed The Deep has you diving into darkened, procedurally generated 2D cave systems in search of a giant beast, and a morsel to drop into its maw. To do that you'll need to power up your diver, boosting oxygen tanks, swimming speed, and the ability to drag heavier loads of treasure to the surface with you, using bombs to blast new paths through the subterranean water-filled maze. With a gradually escalating sense of difficulty and complexity, the sense of progression, as you tease the secrets out of each labyrinth while making sure you don't accidentally drown or get eaten by squid-like monsters, proves compelling. Score: 8/10 iOS & Android, free (Sega) Already out in open beta for a year in Asia, The Phantom X worldwide release retains the original Japanese voice acting, but now features well translated English subtitles, in a game that retains the style and gameplay of the long running Persona franchise. It effortlessly blends mundane secondary school shenanigans with more fantastical goings on, while maintaining the series' mechanically involved turn-based combat, albeit adding gacha microtransactions, which for once feels relatively inoffensive. The only time its monetisation gets in the way is deliberate level gating that forces you either to pay or endure days of relatively uninspiring grind, a process that's additionally hampered by the slowly regenerating stamina that governs whether you can collect rewards at the end of levels. Still, if you love Persona, this supplies a new set of interesting characters and successfully translates the flair of Persona 5 into a portable format, although it also features cross-save functionality with the PC version. Score: 7/10 iOS & Android, free trial – full game £9.99 (Noodlecake) Originally released on PC nearly a decade ago, the wonderfully named Ultimate Chicken Horse is an absurdist party game for two to four players. Starting on the left of the screen, each player grabs a prop, which could be a door, a platform, a deadly spiked ball, or any number of other comedy objects, to position it on the screen. The aim is to collaborate in building a path to the goal on the right of the screen, while making it as hard as possible for other players to get there with you. Its fast-paced gameplay and cute hand-animated art style emphasise the humour, but playing against online opponents removes the fun and banter of same-screen couch multiplayer. Although local play is possible, all of you will need to buy the game, cranking the cost up to untenable levels. It's a great game but one that's not well suited to mobile. Score: 6/10 iOS, included with Apple Arcade subscription (Ironhide Studios) Ironhide Studios' Kingdom Rush series is the unchallenged king of tower defence games, letting you build and upgrade turrets while also commanding heroes, spells, and support troops that you can guide individually around the battlefield. Outside battle you'll be selecting buffs and new skills for your heroes and towers, and purchasing consumables to get you out of any especially tight spots you might encounter. The only thing that used to rankle about Kingdom Rush: Alliance TD was its insistence on trying to flog you add-ons – including heroes that would otherwise be inaccessible – even though it was already a paid-for game. The Apple Arcade version naturally nixes all that, instantly making it the definite version of the game. Score: 8/10 iOS & Android, £6.99 (Slothwerks) More Trending Rustbowl Rumble is the latest deck builder to emerge in the gradually expanding Meteorfall franchise. Like its predecessors, this is a turn-based card battler, but this time fights involve up to four pugilists on each team. As well as paying careful attention to the turn order, to make sure your attacks, defences, and healing occur in time to be useful, there are also wild cards that change the rules for a single turn, and feats demanded by the crowd, which can bring fairly hefty bonuses if you manage to complete them. There's such a huge range of combinations of brawlers, perks, attacks, status effects, and buffs that you'll keep discovering new approaches to even after many hours of play. A genuinely deep and complex mobile strategy game, with pleasing handcrafted visuals. Score: 8/10 Email gamecentral@ leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.

Glam Abbey Clancy takes her children to watch Sabrina Carpenter perform at British Summer Time in Hyde Park
Abbey Clancy looked every inch the doting mother as she took her children to see Sabrina Carpenter at American Express presents BST in Hyde Park on Saturday. The model, 39, whose husband is football legend is Peter Crouch, 44, looked incredible in a pair of loose-fitted blue denim jeans. She paired her jeans with a figure-hugging black top and an oversized black leather jacket. She added inches to statuesque frame as she slipped into a pair of black wedges and toted around her belongings in an olive leather bag. To finish her ensemble, she accessorise with a chunky black belt and a pair of black tinted sunglasses. Abbey was seen with her four children Sophie, 14, Liberty, nine, Johnny, seven, and Jack, five. Abbey's outing comes after her lookalike daughter Sophia showed she has taken after her model mother as she joined her famous family and footballer father Peter Crouch at the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club for day four of Wimbledon on Thursday. The daughter to the famous couple, 14, showed off her resemblance to her mum as she was seen topping up her lip gloss in the crowd. She joined Abbey and Peter who looked happier than ever and packed on the PDA with a kiss while sat in Centre Court, as she stepped out in an all white ensemble. For the outing, Sophie put on a very glamorous display as she toted her belongings around in a black leather Miu Miu bag. It appears that she also has her mother's eye for designer accessories, as she accessorised with four Christian Dior cloth bracelets, each worth a whopping £250. To finish her sporting day outfit, Sophia was seen wearing false eyelashes as she applied a layer of Hailey Bieber 's Rhode lip gloss. Meanwhile Abbey - who is also a mother to Liberty, nine, Johnny, seven, and Jack, five - looked incredible for the outing as she wore a yellow striped suit. Liverpool football legend Peter, looked handsome as he attended the event in a casual blue shirt. Abbey's outing comes after her lookalike daughter Sophia showed she has taken after her model mother as she joined her famous family and footballer father Peter Crouch at the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club for day four of Wimbledon on Thursday Abbey has had a highly successful modelling career, while she's also branched out into presenting, novel writing and even won Strictly Come Dancing back in 2013. And Sophia has taken nepotism in her stride as she made her modelling debut aged eight when she joined Abbey for a Lipsy shoot. Sophia has reportedly had 'loads of offers' already from agencies as she is being dubbed the 'next Lila Moss' A source told Heat World: 'Sophia is getting lots of offers from modelling agencies. They see her as the next big thing, thanks to her looking like Abbey and having Pete's height. 'She has already done campaigns with her mum, but now big-name agencies are desperate to sign her and turn her into the next Lila Moss.' Centre Court spectators will be watching Jack Draper compete against 2017 Wimbledon finalist Marin Cilic and Dan Evans takes on Novak Djokovic. Draper, the current world No4, takes on 2017 Wimbledon finalist Marin Cilic this afternoon as he looks to progress past the second round for the first time at SW19. World number one Jannik Sinner is also back in the spotlight, up against Aleksandar Vukic, whilst Iga Swiatek plays Caty McNally in the other Centre Court match. Judy Murray has opened up on the secrets of the Royal Box at Wimbledon as celebrity guests continue to flood into Wimbledon. While there are 18 Championship grass courts at SW19, all eyes are often on the historic Centre Court, which plays host to the best stars the sport has to offer as they compete for glory. Centre Court boasts nearly 15,000 seats, meaning lucky punters can be seen cheering on their favourites, and are joined by guests in the Royal Box at around lunchtime each day. So far this week, the likes of John Cena, Thomas Tuchel and Olivia Rodrigo have all been present, with all three part of a star-studded line-up in the Box on Wednesday. On Tuesday Judy, renown for her coaching work in the sport and her support for tennis-playing sons Andy and Jamie, made an appearance. Before her trip, she opened up on what it is like in the Royal Box on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show with The National Lottery on Virgin Radio UK. 'Royal Boxing should be a verb, shouldn't it?' she said.' It should be a summer verb.' She added: 'Well, you arrive usually around 11.30, so you go upstairs, they have a champagne reception, then you go in for lunch and you could be sitting beside absolutely anybody at lunch. There's no seating plan, it's just as you go into the room. 'It's in the clubhouse of the All England Club, and the first year that I went I took my mum, of course, and we sat with Jack Nicklaus. I sat with a few years ago a lady who was the first female Spitfire pilot. I mean it's just you could be with absolutely anybody and the stories are fascinating. 'It's really tough when the sun comes round because there's no escape. 'It's actually I think worse for the guys because they have to wear a jacket and tie and they're not allowed to take the jacket off unless the royalty in the box takes their jacket off first. That's the protocol.'

Sabrina Carpenter in incredible duet with music legends at London show
Sabrina Carpenter brought out British band Duran Duran for an amazing duet at BST Hyde Park which thrilled fans Music star Sabrina Carpenter performed an amazing duet with Duran Duran during her second sold-out BST Hyde Park show. The band were brought on for their hit Hungry Like the Wolf. Their performance had been a closely-guarded secret all weekend. There was no special guest for the first show.A source said: "Sabrina is a huge Duran Duran fan and wanted to mix things up." The Mirror told today how the US singer pulled out all the stops this weekend. The star, 26, came prepared with the team to ensure she was in tip-top shape for the energy-sapping shows on Saturday and Sunday night, and even had her own ambulance as backstage was locked down. Security was also 'unprecedented' backstage, say insiders, and 'unlike anything they've ever seen before", for the over 65,000 strong crowd. The show went down a storm with Sabrina saying she has been constantly checking the weather app as she was worried about British weather. 'The first thing I did was look at the weather app because you guys are shady here,' said the Pennsylvania-born singer, who followed on from Noah Kahan's performance on Friday night, which featured a special appearance from Lewis Capaldi. And as the crowd sang along to a string of hits from her recent single releases, Sabrina couldn't help but swoon over the crystal clear vocals. 'Hearing you sing in these accents is just ….', she laughed. Rounding off the show with what's arguably the hit that catapulted her to household name-status, Sabrina belted out Espresso with the help of the lively crowd. Sharing pictures from Saturday night in London to Instagram, Sabrina - who wore an embellished red romper with her name emblazoned on the front at one point in the show - wrote: "NIGHT 1 HYDE PARK magical and unbelievable. 65,000 of your beautiful faces and we get the privilege of doing it all again tonight!! See you soon i love you". Sabrina is set to release her seventh studio album, titled Man's Best Friend, in late August, following the monumental success of her previous 2024 effort, Short 'n' Sweet. Talking of the new release online, Sabrina wrote to Instagram recently: "I wrote Manchild on a random Tuesday with Amy and Jack not too long after finishing Short n' Sweet and it ended up being the best random Tuesday of my life. "Not only was it so fun to write, but this song became something I can look back on that will score the mental montage to the very confusing and fun young adult years of life. It sounds like the song's embodiment of a loving eye roll and it feels like a never-ending road trip in the summer." She concluded, "Hence why I wanted to give it to you now- so you can stick your head out the car window and scream it all summer long! thank you always and forever for listening and thank you men for testing me!"
