67-year-old crooner Tom Jones has reportedly insured his chest hair for almost $7 million.

The policy was taken out with the world-renowned Lloyd's of London, an insurance house with a history of catering to strange celebrity requests. Lloyd's of London has insured the legs of Fred Astaire, Angie Dickinson, and supermodel Heidi Klum, the hands of pianist Liberace and the fingers of Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards. The most famous rear end in the world - Jennifer Lopez '- is also said to be insured by the London-based insurance house.

On its Web site, Lloyd's of London boasted that the storied firm issued coverage of a celebrity's chest hair in 2006.

"Admittedly, this is one of the most obscure requests I've had – but I still came up with a wording that addressed the need," underwriter John Thomas said at the time.

Isabella Rossellini's short film series "Green Pornos" is probably one of the most talked-about movies at this year's Berlinale film festival. The actress and director plays eight different insects in the 8 one-minute episodes of "Green Porno," a series made for mobile phones.

"If I were a dragonfly," says Isabella Rossellini, "I would have compound eyes and could look up, down, back and forth at the same time. I would have a very skinny body and transparent wings." This simple statement marks the beginning of eight stories dealing with the sex lives of insects.

For example, houseflies have little time for physical love, as their lives are so short. Fireflies glide in loneliness through the night, hoping to attract a partner with their light. Snails are pretty much hermaphrodites, so whoever comes by tends to work out, while earthworms are fond of the so-called "69 position." Male honey bees seemingly have nothing to do but wait for their lucky chance. And the female praying mantis gives unsafe sex a whole new twist, as she tends to rip off her partner's head during the act of copulation.

The film has the look of puppet theater, with its sets and costumes made from material and paper. For example, Rossellini dresses up in a green tube to play the role of the dragonfly or she glues six paper eyes to her face and spins a net out of hemp to create a spider's web in which the object of her desire can be trapped.

"Green Pornos" was commissioned by the Sundance Film Festival based in Salt Lake City.

Rossellini's "Green Pornos" is being shown as part of the "Forum Expanded" section of this year's Berlinale. Three glass cabinets contain three mobile phones each, showing the insect sex. The screens are embedded in tree trunks or in the mouth of a frog. Visitors can look through a magnifying glass to observe the details more closely.

Peta spokepersons would "rather go naked than wear fur".

They've recently invited porstar Zara Whites to pose in front of the entrance of the Agriculture Fair in Paris wrapped in a meat package to convince people that they should go vegan.

It's not the first time they do such action but i just loved the look of that French farmer: images.

Arielle Dombasle, 53 year-old singer, actress and wife of star French philosopher Bernard Henri-Levy, has bared it all last weekend at the Crazy Horse cabaret in Paris. Whether you know Arille and her husband doesn't really matter, it's not everyday that you see such pictures of a 53 year-old beauty.

Taking the stage name Dolores Sugar Rose, Dombasle performed songs from her new album of Broadway musical classics -- "C'est Si Bon" (It's so good) -- alongside the nightclub's regular troupe of bare-breasted dancers.
