Tamara Ecclestone had a goose named after her as a wedding gift.

The Formula 1 heiress tied the knot with broker Jay Rutland on Tuesday (11.06.13) and is being lavished with expensive presents during her three-day, £3.5 million celebration on the French Riviera, but nothing quite as unusual as having a bird named after her.

Pierce Brosnan thinks Daniel Craig is a ''magnificent'' James Bond.

The 59-year-old actor - who portrayed the suave spy in four movies until 2002's 'Die Another Day' - believes his successor is the perfect choice for the character at present because he is so ''hard'' and the franchise has moved on to a different era, thanks largely to competition from the 'Bourne' movie series.

Dame Shirley Bassey and Halle Berry celebrated the 50th anniversary of James Bond at the Oscars.

The actress - who played Bond girl Jinx opposite Pierce Brosnan's incarnation of 007 in 'Die Another Day' - led the tribute to the suave British secret agent at the Academy Awards last night (24.02.13), while the 76-year-old singer gave a rousing rendition of iconic Bond theme 'Goldfinger'.

Sir Sean Connery may join other James Bond actors in a tribute to the secret agent at the Oscars.

Academy bosses are hoping to coax the film legend out of retirement to join fellow 007 stars - including current Bond actor Daniel Craig, Sir Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan - on stage at next month's ceremony in a four-minute celebration to mark 50 years of the film franchise.

Sir Roger Moore wishes he had avoided the sun when he was younger.

The former James Bond star used to maintain his bronzed glow by getting deliberately sunburnt to avoid wearing make-up on camera, and he blames his tanning addiction for his skin cancer scares.

Daniel Craig is the highest-paid James Bond star ever.

The 44-year-old actor - who reprised his role as the iconic British spy for the third time in 'Skyfall' - will earn £31 million to portray the suave secret agent in two more movies, dwarfing the pay cheques received by his predecessors.
