Kim Kardashian is pictured (centre) boarding a plane in Paris as she fled the city in terror after she was robbed at gunpoint at her apartment in the early hours. The reality star, 35, is said to have been robbed of millions of dollars in jewellery by five armed masked men dressed as police officers. At around 2.30am, the robbers are believed to have entered the building and handcuffed the night guard. They then entered Kim's room, 'tied her up and locked her in the bathroom'. The men stole a

jewellery box and a ring, prompting fears that the valuables were personal ones, and not just jewellery Kim was borrowing for fashion week. As she waited for her private jet to take off she was seen without her huge engagement ring (left). The mother-of-two (pictured right in Paris earlier in the evening) is 'shaken but unharmed' after the ordeal, a spokeswoman said. Kim's sister Kendall (left inset) dashed to her sister's apartment as soon as news of the robbery broke.

Twitter Goes Into Meltdown As Simon Cowell Appears To Suffer Rude Wardrobe Faux Pas On X Factor

He normally exudes coolness as he sits in his X-Factor chair, whether at Wembley stadium or in the comfort of his home.

But Simon Cowell's relaxed nature got the better of him on Saturday night, when he appeared to suffer an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction during the judges' houses stage of the competition.

The media mogul, 56, listened to contestants while sitting between Mel B and Emma Bunton on his sofa with one leg folded up against the other.

But his position promoted a Twitter outburst as viewers mistook his bare toe for a rather different body part. And I won’t lie we also thought it was the thing. Another photo below...

Saudi Arabia Abandons Islamic Calendar For Govt Pay

Saudi government workers will be paid according to the Gregorian calendar instead of the Islamic Hijri calendar, making the working month longer as part of cost-cutting measures, newspapers reported on Monday.

The change, approved by cabinet last week, brings civil service pay in line with the government's January-December fiscal year.

The reports said the latest austerity measure took effect on October 1. Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, is cutting government spending and re-orienting its economy after a collapse over the past two years of the global oil price which provided most of its revenue.

The Hijri calendar consists of 12 months of 29 or 30 days depending on the sighting of the moon, meaning the Islamic year is several days shorter than the Gregorian calendar, which is widely used in the world.

Raheem reborn: From the 'Hated One' at England's disastrous Euros to City's leading light... so how has he turned it around?

Raheem Sterling answers the front door. He shakes hands and says thanks for coming over and leads the way through to the television room. In the hall, a battalion of kids' shoes lie on the floor, neatly arranged in pairs. It's his mum's place and some of the family are staying. Lunch is being prepared in an elegant, sleek kitchen, flooded with light, which looks out over a neat, pretty garden. Forgive the detail.
