COURTNEY Love looked every inch the wild-child at Sir Elton John's benefit gig at the Old Vic Theatre.

Always ready to shock, Love took the audience aback when she performed an impromptu striptease as she sang a duet with Elton, starting off dressed as Donald Duck but ending her performance wearing only her fishnet tights, a camisole and briefs.

Not that she really needed to gain more attention. Love has already had her fair share of that this week when she was arrested at Heathrow for alleged abusive behaviour towards cabin crew on a flight from Los Angeles.

Maybe Branson could give her some handy hints on how to get the best from an airline company...
