Miranda, then 26, showed off her svelte frame in a stunning Christian Dior knit dress that finished at her thigh.

Finishing the look, Miranda wore a light rose shade on her lips, choosing to go without accessories for the occasion.
The throwback pics have sent fans wild online, with many fawning over Miranda's innate sense of style.
Some were also quick to point out that Miranda, now 42, looks as though she has barely aged a day.
'And she still looks like that,' one fan offered, summing up the sentiment of many.
Others were quick to fawn over the throwback images, with the likes of: 'I want her legs', and 'She's a dream'.
It's not hyperbole either, with recent photos of Miranda showing her looking remarkably similar to the 2009 images.
She looked absolutely stunning at the Met Gala back in May, in an eye-catching black Dior gown that featured exaggerated origami-style folds across the bodice and hip, paired with a wire mesh veil worn over her face.
It comes after Miranda shared a gushing tribute to her husband Evan Spiegel, as the Snapchat billionaire founder celebrated his 35th birthday last month.

She took to Instagram to share a loved-up photo of the pair enjoying a romantic gondola ride in Venice.
The image showed the couple cuddling up close and beaming broadly as they took in the sights of the historic Italian city.
Rugged up against the chill, Miranda wore a chic navy blue overcoat with brass buttons, while Evan braved the cold in a black puffy jacket.
Captioning the romantic photo, Miranda paid tribute to her husband of eight years.
'Happy birthday to my love! You are the most incredible partner and I'm inspired by you every day,' Miranda wrote.
'I'm so grateful for you and our beautiful family. Here's to many more adventures together.'
The post was met with a flurry of comments from fans, with one eagle-eyed follower pointing out a surprising detail about the photo.
One fan commented that the couple bore a rather striking resemblance when it came to the colour of their hair.
'I love how their hair colours are matching,' they wrote.
Others were quick to comment on the couple's palpable affection for each other, which was more than evident in the photo.
'Superstars with hearts of gold,' one follower wrote.
'Beautiful and inspiring couple,' a third swooned, while another summed up the sentiment of many with a simple 'beautiful couple'.
Miranda and Evan tied the knot in 2017 in an intimate wedding - with just 45 friends and family in attendance.
They share three sons together - Hart, six, Myles, five, and Pierre, nine months.
Miranda also has a 13-year-old son, Flynn, from her previous marriage to Orlando Bloom.
She is close to Orlando and his fiancée Katy Perry and described their relationship dynamic as a 'big, blended family'.

'We have so much love and respect for each other. I'm so grateful for the relationship I have with Orlando and Katy,' she said.
'We're going to be in each other's lives for the rest of our lives. We have a child together. So let's be as kind as we can to each other.'
Miranda rose to fame at the age of 13 after winning Dolly Magazine's modelling competition.
She then went on to become Australia's first Victoria's Secret Angel in 2007.

Ryan Seacrest, 50, sparks health concerns as fans fear over his 'frail' appearance
Ryan Seacrest sparked concern from fans after sharing his latest Instagram post. The 50-year-old host and producer — whose 'golden boy' image took a hit in May — took to Instagram Monday to upload a photo dump depicting what his life looks like 'lately.' Many of his 6.5 million followers immediately noticed Seacrest looking leaner than ever as he shared a full-body snapshot in a monochrome khaki outfit. He also posted close-up images of his face, with his grizzled beard thinly veiling his bony jawline. 'He looks frail to me. I hope he's doing ok!' one worried fan observed, collecting over 500 likes. 'He looks frail to me. I hope he's doing ok!' one worried fan observed, collecting over 500 likes The star also shared a glimpse at his weight-incorporated gym routine and one of his meals. It prompted one person to comment, 'Ryan, I respect you love for fitness and eating well... But you're looking pretty gaunt.' On a brighter note, it was added, 'But you look happy, which is fantastic!' 'Ryan, you're getting too skinny!' another said, adding a smiley face and red heart emoji. One social media user warned, 'Ryan, I adore you, but... the BIG but.... you are looking too thin. Sometimes being thin can age a person.' Another person compared him to another celebrity known for his thin stature, adding to the thread: 'Damn I thought this was Marc Anthony for a sec.'

A source told Page Six of Ryan's slimmed down look, 'Ryan has recently been doing a new workout routine — working out with a new trainer, Dodd Romero, combined with Pilates and yoga for the first time. That's created a visible change.' The insider additionally noted, 'He's also been enjoying vacation time this summer and eating lots of pasta.'

What the key witnesses at Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex trafficking trial told the jury
The jury deliberating at Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex trafficking trial heard testimony from 34 witnesses over the last seven weeks. They included Combs' ex-girlfriends Cassie and Jane, who said he forced them into drug-fueled sex marathons they called 'freak-offs' and 'hotel nights,' a sex worker they knew as ' The Punisher,' personal assistants who said they witnessed his violence and facilitated his sexual exploits, and other women who accused him of abuse. All of the witnesses were called by the prosecution. Combs waived his right to testify — not unusual for criminal defendants — and his defense team declined to call any witnesses of their own. Instead, they sought to undercut the allegations via cross-examination during the prosecution's case. Here are some of the key witnesses and what they said: Cassie Cassie, the R&B singer whose real name is Casandra Ventura, dated Combs from 2007 to 2018 after he signed her to his Bad Boy Records label. Over four days, she told jurors Combs beat her and ordered her to have 'disgusting' sex with male sex workers during multi-day 'freak-offs." She also said Combs raped her after she said she was ending their relationship. In 2016, security cameras captured Combs hitting, kicking and dragging Cassie as she left his room at the Intercontinental Hotel in Los Angeles. The video was shown repeatedly throughout the trial. A hotel guard testified that Combs paid $100,000 to hide the video. It remained secret until CNN aired it in May 2024. Jane Jane, testifying under a pseudonym, dated Combs from 2021 until his arrest last September. The model said she repeatedly told Combs she didn't want to have sex with other men but that he kept pressuring her. She said she felt 'obligated' in part because he paid her rent. Last year, Jane said, Combs put her in a chokehold, punched her in the face and forced her into an encounter with a sex worker. She said he told her: 'You're not going to ruin my night like this.' Both women said Combs threatened to release their sex videos if they refused his demands. Kid Cudi Rapper Kid Cudi testified that Combs broke into his home in late 2011 after learning he and Cassie were dating. His Porsche was firebombed a few weeks later. Cudi, whose legal name is Scott Mescudi, said he knew Combs 'had something to do' with it, but Combs told him he wasn't involved. Cudi said he thought Combs was lying when he claimed he knew nothing about the car. Daniel Phillip Daniel Phillip, an exotic dancer involved in 'freak-offs' from 2012 to 2014, said he was paid $700 to $6,000 to have sex with Cassie while Combs watched and barked orders at them. He recalled the hip-hop mogul telling them: 'You need to rub more baby oil on each other. You don't have enough on.' Another time, Phillip said, Cassie jumped into his lap — her body shaking — after it sounded like Combs was slapping and slamming her around an adjoining room. He said he stopped meeting the couple after seeing Combs throw a bottle at her before dragging her by her hair into a bedroom as she screamed. "The Punisher" Sharay Hayes, an exotic dancer known by the stage name 'The Punisher,' said Cassie used the ruse of a birthday striptease to lure him to his first 'freak-off." He recalled seeing baby oil bottles in bowls of water and getting handed $800 in cash. Later, after Combs watched him have sex with Cassie, he said he was handed $1,200 more. Combs kept his face hidden during their initial meetings, and Hayes said he didn't realize it was him until he saw a message on a hotel room TV screen that said: 'Essex House would like to welcome Mr. Sean Combs.' Capricorn Clark Ex-Combs employee Capricorn Clark said Combs came to her home waving a gun the day of the break-in and demanded she get dressed and go with him because 'we're going to kill Cudi.' After the break-in, Clark said, Combs told her she had to convince Cudi 'it wasn't me.' 'If you don't convince him of that I'll kill all you,' he said, punctuating his threat with an expletive, Clark recalled. Mia A former personal assistant testifying under the pseudonym 'Mia' said Combs put his hand up her dress and forcibly kissed her at his 40th birthday party in 2009, forced her to perform oral sex on another occasion and raped her in 2010. His lawyers say the claims are false. Confronted on cross examination with loving texts she sent Combs long after her employment had ended, she said: 'I was still brainwashed.' Bryana 'Bana' Bongolan Cassie's friend Bryana 'Bana' Bongolan testified that Combs dangled her over the railing of Cassie's 17th floor balcony and threw her onto patio furniture in September 2016, leaving her bruised and traumatized. But defense attorney Nicole Westmoreland exposed holes in her story on cross examination, showing that Combs was on tour on the East Coast in 2016 when she said she suffered the bruises shown to jurors in a picture she had taken of her injuries. George Kaplan George Kaplan said he'd toss out liquor bottles and drugs and clean up baby oil from Combs' hotel rooms. He said he quit after seeing Combs fighting with Cassie but didn't report it to authorities. Kaplan said he still sends Combs birthday greetings and invited him to his wedding. Kaplan told jurors he was grateful to work for Combs and still has 'a great deal of respect' for him. David James David James testified that Combs had him stock hotel rooms with baby oil, condoms, Viagra and other supplies while he worked up to 20-hour days as a personal assistant from May 2007 to May 2009. James said he saw Combs with three handguns on his lap as they drove to confront Combs' record industry rival Suge Knight in 2008. On another occasion, he testified, Combs asked him to bring his iPod from his residence to his hotel and, when nobody answered the door, he went in and saw Cassie on the bed in a white comforter and a 'completely naked' man he did not recognize who walked 'across the room and kind of scurried away.' Brendan Paul Brendan Paul, who worked as a personal assistant to Combs for about 18 months ending in March 2024, said he bought drugs for Combs including cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy and marijuana. His employment ended when he was arrested at a Miami, Florida airport for possession of cocaine, which he testified came from Combs' room. Deonte Nash Combs' lawyers confronted celebrity stylist Deonte Nash with messages he sent expressing love for Combs. Some of them were from 2019 and 2020, two years after their professional relationship ended. A reluctant witness for prosecutors, he nonetheless gave them insight into the relationship between Cassie and Combs, saying Cassie was 'quite often' left with bruises to her legs, arms and neck, besides an incident when Combs left her with a large, bloody gash above her eye during a beating. Dawn Richard Dawn Richard, a singer in the Bad Boy Records groups Danity Kane and Diddy — Dirty Money, testified that she witnessed Combs acting violently toward Cassie, including swinging at her with a skillet and beating her in 2009. She says Combs made a threat, which she took as a death threat, if she didn't keep quiet. Combs' lawyers contend Richard's story has been inconsistent and that she is motivated to speak against him because she is suing him

Katy Perry gets STUCK in flying metal sphere and nearly falls out mid-air... after crying amid Orlando Bloom split
Katy Perry suffered a stage malfunction and narrowly avoided a disaster during her concert in Australia this week amid her Lifetimes world tour. On Sunday night, the singer was performing in Adelaide and being lifted in a floating metal sphere when the stage prop seemingly malfunctioned, leaving her stuck in the air. The floating orb then tilted, as seen in fan-taken footage posted on X, and it appeared as though she scrambled to hold on to avoid falling into the crowd. For several long seconds, Perry held onto one of the bars before the crew stopped the lights and music before rushing to help her. The pop star was quickly freed from the prop and saved — before later breaking down in tears onstage — but many of the fans took to social media to express how scared they were for her in that moment. Many fans also likened the situation to how Beyonce recently had trouble onstage too when the floating car she was riding in suddenly halted and tilted mid-performance and she had to stop her show during her ongoing Cowboy Carter tour. I was really scared 😢 — nasty (@aquitter25) June 29, 2025 Perry is currently on her Lifetimes Tour, performing a series of shows in Australia — which forced her to miss her close friend Lauren Sanchez's wedding to Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos in Venice over the weekend. Her now-ex Orlando Bloom attended the weekend-long festivities alone as a newly-single bachelor while Perry was in Australia with their four-year-old daughter Daisy. Perry kicked off their tour in Mexico City back in April and is set to conclude her tour in Abu Dhabi at the end of the year, on December 7. The Lifetimes tour is in support of her seventh studio album 143 and is her first headlining stadium tour in seven years since she last toured in 2018. While performing Down Under, Perry was seen fighting back tears while onstage as she thanked her fans for their support following her split from Bloom. She and the actor had been together for a total of nine years before their split was revealed late last month. As Perry took to the stage for the final show of her Australian leg of her Lifetimes world tour, she fought back tears as the show came to a close. In footage posted on X, she made a heart with her fingers, before struggling to hold back tears as she spoke to the crowd at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. While performing Down Under, Perry was seen fighting back tears while onstage as she thanked her fans for their support following her split from Bloom; pictured April in Mexico City 'Thank you Australia for always being there for me,' she said. It came just hours after Bloom shared a series of cryptic Instagram posts, sharing a quote from Gautama Buddha to his seven million followers. The quote that Bloom reposted read: 'Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters most.' He additionally shared a separate slide which had another quote which was titled 'Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda.' The text read: 'The important thing is to take that first step. Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.' Last week, it was revealed that the former couple called it quits after nearly a decade together. At the time, a source told Us Weekly: 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' while also adding that the separation has been 'not contentious' thus far. 'Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.' The Teenage Dream hitmaker — who is currently embarking on her Lifetimes Tour — was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 until their divorce in 2012. The insider further added that the reported breakup had been 'a long time coming' and that their relationship had also been 'tense for months.'
