Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler has completed his stint in rehab - celebrating his release by grabbing courtside seats for the Boston Celtics' basketball game on Tuesday . The singer checked into a facility in Pasadena, California last month , prompting speculation he had slipped from sobriety, 20 years after he kicked hard drugs. Tyler later revealed he was in rehab on doctor's orders because of a foot injury. But he appears to be recovering well, and looked happy and healthy as he cheered on his team against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Celtics went on to win 131-92 - and were crowned the new NBA Champions. According to website Tmz.com, Tyler is continuing to undergo outpatient treatment until he is back to full health.

Deyn named best-dressed ahead of Kate Moss
Kate Moss has been knocked off the top of a best-dressed list by model-of-the-moment Agyness Deyn.
34-year-old Moss had taken the best-dressed crown for the last two years thanks to her prized ability to influence the contents of women's wardrobes.
Although she still receives praise in Tatler magazine's annual list, it is Moss's rival Deyn, 25, whose sartorial choices enlist most respect.
Tatler also puts Samantha Cameron, the wife of Tory leader David Cameron, in the top 10 for being "consistently chic and never flash". The magazine adds: "She brings some much-needed glamour to the Tory Wives Club."
Actress Keira Knightley takes fourth place, for being a "red carpet style icon" who works the "grungy but clean" look during the day.
Anouck Lepere, the Belgian model girlfriend of Moss's ex, Jefferson Hack, is sixth.
Alexa Chung, the girlfriend of Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner and presenter of T4, is 10th. The magazine says she is often "seen in a navy children's princess coat with a velvet collar which cost a tenner in Brick Lane".
Former chip girl Deyn, winner of Model of the Year, recently replaced Moss in the latest Burberry campaign.
The fashion label says Moss is "still part of the Burberry family".
Tatler writes of Deyn: "Whether she's sipping chai at the Russian Tea Rooms in Primrose Hill or kicking back at Henry Holland's studio, She's fash-fabulous... Rockin."
It still credits Moss with influencing women, giving her second place in the top 10 and writing: "If she wears it, the rest of the world follows suit.She has proven her designer credentials with her sell-out Topshop clothing range."

Gwyneth Paltrow quashes adoption rumours
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has denied recent reports that she and husband Chris Martin are considering adopting a child.
The couple, who married in 2003, were rumoured to be planning to add a new sibling to their family for three-year-old Apple and two-year-old Moses.
However, Hollywood star Paltrow insisted that the reports were blown out of proportion. She said: "If somebody asked me at a party, hypothetically, I'd say sure, why not. But I'm not on a list or anything.
"You know how those weekly magazines sensationalise everything. It's not something we have even begun to think about."
The 35-year-old star also revealed that she has no plans to have another baby in the near future.

Enemy singing in the Spain
THE ENEMY played at the new Ibiza Rocks Hotel on Saturday night to kick off
the party island’s season.
Frontman Tom Clarke and the lads performed in front of a San Miguel-swigging
crowd of Brits – with heavy rain across The White Isle making them
feel at home.
UNDERGROUND HEROES – who have a residency at the hotel for the
next month – got the crowd warmed up, as did DJ ROB DA BANK.
They will no doubt be taking full advantage of the island’s clubs
this summer, despite the government slashing party hours by forcing clubs to
shut from 6am to 4.30pm.
Residency ... Underground Heroes
Weirdly though, it waived the new law for the opening weekend and GROOVE
ARMADA headlined Space’s all-dayer yesterday.
After five years as resident DJ at Pacha’s Pure Pacha night, PETE
TONG has moved to Eden to spin on the decks at a night called
Wonderland.
He hit the decks at Pike’s Hotel on Friday to close Ibiza’s
first International Music Summit.
Meanwhile Pete’s Pure Pacha replacement, SANDER KLEINENBERG,
played to a heaving crowd.
I bet Pete hopes he’s made the right decision and it doesn’t
all go, er, Pete Tong.

Boy George denies false imprisonment charge
Singer Boy George has denied a charge that he falsely imprisoned a male escort.
The former Culture Club frontman, real name George O'Dowd, appeared in a London court yesterday where he was ordered to stand trial later this year.
He will fight the charge that he chained escort Audun Carlsen, 28, to a wall. The offence is alleged to have taken place at the star's Shoreditch home in East London last year.
A previous hearing was told the case centres on an "allegation of false imprisonment".
The 46-year-old, dressed all in black and wearing sunglasses, pleaded not guilty during the brief hearing at Snaresbrook Crown Court, East London.
Boy George was then ordered to stand trial at the same court in November. It is expected to last five days. He left the court without making any comment.
Boy George, who remains on bail under the condition that he cannot contact the alleged victim, left Culture Club in the late 1990s, before briefly trying a solo career. He later became a club DJ.
In 2006 he was ordered to sweep the streets of Manhattan by a US court after charges stemming from an incident when police responded to his call reporting a burglary and found cocaine in his apartment.

US shows shelve Heath Ledger video
Plans to broadcast footage on US television of the late actor Heath Ledger allegedly at a drug-fuelled party in Hollywood have been pulled "out of respect for his family".
The footage is understood to have been shot two years ago following an awards ceremony in Los Angeles.
US celebrity programmes Entertainment Tonight and The Insider were due to broadcast the footage and had previously aired a promotional clip for the proposed screening.
Ledger is not shown taking drugs in the video.
In a statement Entertainment Tonight said: "Out of respect for Heath Ledger's family, Entertainment Tonight and The Insider have decided not to run the Heath Ledger video which has been circulating in the world media."

Shine a Light
The music of the Rolling Stones has lit up the soundtrack to so many Martin Scorsese films ("Gimme Shelter" has appeared in no less than three of his features--GOODFELLAS, CASINO, and THE DEPARTED) that it's little surprise to find the director teaming up with the legendary rockers for this concert recording. SHINE A LIGHT begins with a few glimpses of the preparation that went into the recording of the show, which was staged over two nights at New York City's Beacon Theatre in 2006. Scorsese also includes some candid footage of the Stones doing a pre-show meet-and-greet with guests Bill and Hillary Clinton, which highlights some of the different personality traits in the band. Keith Richards and Ron Wood are the clowns, always goofing around; Mick Jagger is the consummate professional, always polite to a fault; Charlie Watts caries a real air of dignity, as befits someone who enjoys a dual career as a noted jazz musician.
The bulk of the movie is dedicated to the multi-camera shoot at the Beacon, which captures the Stones playing some of their biggest hits and a few lesser-known numbers. Special guests such as Jack White, Buddy Guy, and Christina Aguilera are ushered on at various points in the show, and the concert footage is broken up by some amusing vintage footage of the band. By using so many cameras, Scorsese captures a side of the Stones that is rarely seen, such as Watts turning to camera and puffing out his cheeks and Richards offering encouraging words to Jack White as he exits the stage. SHINE A LIGHT provides a welcome glimpse into the Stones' world at this advanced stage in their career, and continues Scorsese's obsession (see also: NO DIRECTION HOME and THE LAST WALTZ) with documenting some of the most influential characters in rock & roll.
