Lupita Nyong'o's $150k Oscar dress stolen from hotel room

Lupita Nyong'o

It feels like the bling ring all over again.
According to TMZ, Lupita Nyong'o's $150k pearl- embellished Oscar frock has been stolen from her hotel room at The London in West Hollywood.

Boasting 6,000 tiny pearls, sources say 31-year-old Lupita's large entourage (including friends, hair stylists, makeup artists and fitters) all had access to a handful of key cards which allowed them into enter room. So, could the culprit be in her inner circle?
While the Oscar-winning actress tried to file a police report immediately, sources say a team from  Calvin Klein - who designed the dress - had to take the reigns as the frock was on loan.
L.A. County Sheriff's Department Officer John Mitchell said: "We got a call at about 11.30 last night from someone at the London Hotel about a high value dress that was stolen from a hotel room."
According to E! News, detectives from the LAPD are currently investigating the theft by reviewing security surveillance footage and interviewing staff and other witnesses.
Soon after the shocking news, The London Hotel released a statement to E!. "This is a terribly unfortunate situation," they said. "And we are working with law enforcement on their investigation."
Let's hope they catch the thieves soon.

'Fifty Shades of Grey' Stars Open Up About Filming in the Red Room

Steven Pan/ Glamour Magazine

Just in time for the film’s Feb. 13 release, Fifty Shades of Grey stars Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson are gracing the cover of Glamour magazine and opening up about their turn-ons and on-set insecurities.

"Dakota was everything that I wanted in Anastasia," the film’s director Sam Taylor-Johnson told the magazine of casting college student Anastasia Steele. "She has a strong sense of who she is, but at the same time there’s a sweetness about her."

One way Taylor-Johnson helped her stars conquer their nerves about some of the racier scenes in the film adaptation of E.L James’ massively successful erotic novel was saving the most intense moments for the end of production. This included much of the material in the "Red Room," the BDSM playroom owned by Dornan’s character Christian Grey.
"I didn’t go to the sex dungeon," Johnson confessed. "I wanted to keep myself distanced from it at first because I wanted Ana’s reaction to certain things to be completely honest and real, like new."
"Some of the Red Room stuff was uncomfortable," Dornan admitted. "There were times when Dakota was not wearing much, and I had to do stuff to her that I’d never choose to do to a woman."

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard tying the knot on 'private island' next weekend Getty Images It makes sense for Captain Jack Sparrow to get married on an island. According to People magazine, Johnny Depp and his fiancée Amber Heard will be walking down the (sandy) aisle on Depp's private island in the Bahamas next weekend. The actor has owned the 45-acre-island (called Little Pond's Cay) for more than ten years, with beaches named after his children Lily-Rose and Jack as well as his two idols Hunter S. Thompson and Marlon Brando. Erm, we're guessing Amber's going to want a beach too? And while there are limited details about the nuptials themselves, the New York Post's Page Six says guests will stay on yachts over the wedding weekend. It hasn't been totally smooth sailing for the couple of three years...pardon the pun. After Johnny's drunken presentation at the Hollywood Film Awards in November, Amber reportedly expressed dismay at his "foolish" behaviour.
