The movie is the fourth in the Spy Kids franchise, but the first time Alba has had a role.

She plays the part of retired spy Marissa, who is thrust back into action along with her two step children, played by Rowan Blanchard and Mason Cook, after maniacal Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) attempts to take over the world.

In a recent interview, Alba revealed that her three-year-old daughter thinks she is old enough to 'drink vino and drive'.

Little Honor Marie is set to become a big sister when her mother and dad Cash Warren welcome their second child later this year.

And appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Alba said her new status has convinced Honor that she is ready to become an adult.

'She's excited, she says she's going to actually be the mommy [and] I'm going to be the grandma. That's the way she phrases it,' she said.

'My girlfriend asked her, "Are you excited about being a big sister?" And she's like, "Yeah, because I'm going to be a grown-up. I'm going to drink vino and drive."'

While they all looked stunning on the red carpet, their beaming smiles couldn't hide the absence of a certain bandmate.

Sarah Harding and Nicola Roberts showed their support for Kimberley Walsh by attending the premiere of her new film Horrid Henry - but their Geordie friend was a no-show.

After a sensational week of revelations from Ashley Cole's latest bedroom conquests, the former X Factor judge was in desperate need of cheering up.

But she chose to remain behind closed doors after finally telling her ex-husband, 'It's over'.

After a terrible week of gloomy rain, the trio brought out the sunshine at the BFI Southbank Centre.

By PAMELA OWEN

Missing the mark: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley donned a dress that didn't make the most of her fabulous figure as she took to the red carpet in Osaka, Japan


With her model figure and fashion know-how Rosie Huntington-Whitely has to push hard to find an ensemble which doesn't flatter her frame.

But as she stepped out onto the red carpet in Osaka, Japan she sported a dress which did the impossible.

Her pale pink satin gown boasted a plunging neckline and draping detail above the waistband, but instead of looking chic fell on the frumpy side.


Not your best look: The model and actress had donned the plunging neckline dress with draped detail at the premiere to her film Transformers: Dark Side Of The Moon


As she stood outside the cinema posing for picture before heading in for the screening of her latest film, air seemed to get trapped in the draped bust detail sagging over the waistband, rather than falling gracefully.

Earlier in the day Rosie had looked smouldering in a black leather and lace dress at a press conference ahead of the premiere.
