AFTER being pictured in a rather compromising position with his wife Bianca Censori on his holiday to Italy last year Kanye West was lucky he didn’t have a run in with the law.

But it turns out the rapper did have a brush with The Police, as I can reveal Kanye rented Sting’s luxurious Tuscan home Il Palagiofor his stay.

And insiders revealed the Touch The Sky rapper, who calls himself Ye, held a string of wild parties at the swanky residence, which is made up of six properties and boasts private chefs and a state-of-the-art recording studio.

A source said: “If people thought Kanye was living it up in Italy after seeing the pictures of him and Bianca in Venice, they don’t know what was going on at Sting’s place.

“Kanye, Bianca and his entourage and partied hard while they were there.

“It’s an incredible location and totally off the beaten track, so they could throw all-night parties and make as much noise as they wanted without disturbing anyone. It was quite a scene to have Kanye and his mates take over the house, one of the most picturesque residences in all of Italy.

“Kanye stayed for most of August and September and made full use of the grounds, which includes a lake and tennis courts.

“People who went on the trip have talked about how insane their parties were and they’re hoping he repeats it.
“It was wild.”

Sting and wife Trudie bought the 16th century bolthole in 1999 and after restoration it became their summer home.

As well as the main house, the property has five huge villas so can accommodate 49 guests who can use all the facilities and staff.

I checked out the website to see how much Kanye would have spent on the party pad and it is “price on request”, which means us mere mortals will likely never get a chance to check it out.

Unless we win big on the EuroMillions tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

This is a modal window.

CAUGHT LIVE: Slash feat Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators @ Wembley Arena

EVER the workaholic in his two decades of sobriety, former wild man Slash – wearing a F**k Happens T-shirt – played an intoxicating show of 110 per cent- proof loud rock music.

The headliners played a stripped-back visual show with of two hours of nailed on, no-nonsense rock.

A deluge of hard riffs ripped through the rammed arena as Slash jumped and swirled around the stage, with his extended solo on Wicked Stone proving his legendary guitar status.

Myles’ delicate voice soared and contrasted brilliantly with charismatic bassist Todd “Dammit” Kerns’s powerhouse vocals on Doctor Alibi and covers of Lenny Kravitz’s Always On The Run and Guns N Roses’ Don’t Damn Me.

The rock voltage levels had us all wanting more and the climax, although left field, didn’t disappoint as they finished on a high with Elton John’s Rocket Man.

MOHAWKS are looking pretty cool again thanks to Rihanna.

The singer had her hair styled in curls on top of her head in a nod to the look made famous by The A-Team’s B A Baracus – and she pulled it off with style.

Ri-Ri showed off her new do after a meal with friends at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California.

While Rihanna always looks flawless, fellow American singer Cardi B has admitted she had an embarrassing moment after hanging out with Ri-Ri and Paris Hilton at a fundraiser in LA last month.

Cardi said: “I’m talking to Paris, I’m talking to Rihanna, sitting right next to each other.

“I went home, you know what I noticed? I noticed I had something black in my teeth the whole time.

“That is so embarrassing.”

It happens to us all Cardi, but shame on Rihanna and Paris for not telling you.

JACK’S FLAK

THE biopic on Amy Winehouse has come under fire from keyboard warriors, with its stars Marisa Abela and Jack O’Connell getting a load of flak.

But Jack, who plays Amy’s ex Blake Fielder-Civil, is ignoring the hate to focus on what the film is really about – celebrating the singer’s life.

Jack said: “I avoid it and shut it off.

“If you go looking for it, you’ll find everything you want to read and everything you don’t want to read. As soon as you tap into that you’re asking for trouble.”

Jack met Blake to learn more about him though he was initially unsure if he should, given Blake has often been blamed for introducing her to drugs.

Jack said: “He wasn’t overly keen, because obviously it’s going into a phase of his life that is very personal and he harbours a mixed bag of emotions.

“To understand that relationship, the fame that was a by-product of her success, all the negativity that came with that . . . We’re all fallible. And drugs were f***ing rife then.

“Heavy drugs were so heavily done and glamorised.

“I spent an afternoon with him, he was quite open. He spoke so highly of Amy. There was something so genuine in how he spoke, it was unquestionable to me that he loved her. That informed how I wanted to portray him.”

Lupita’s hot new look

LUPITA Nyong’o looked oven ready as she partied at the opening of fashion house Dolce & Gabbana’s 40th anniversary exhibition.

The Black Panther actress wore this sheer bodysuit with a silver foil-style crop top and skirt to the party in Milan, Italy.

It’s the first time we’ve seen Lupita since her romance with Canadian actor Joshua Jackson came to light.

The pair were spotted kissing and holding hands in Mexico last month.

Friends say they are “exclusive and serious” which in non-Hollywood terms means they’re definitely going steady.

I won’t buy a hat just yet, but watch this space.

ALEX AND MARVIN JOIN KISS

GIVEN she is dating one of my favourite British singers Jess Glynne, I’m not surprised Alex Scott is keen to shout about her music knowledge.

I can reveal the ex Lioness is joining Kiss FM as a DJ and will host Super Kisstory every Sunday from 7pm to 9pm, starting on April 28.

Alex, who was a guest on Kisstory All Stars last year, said: “Everyone knows I love football, but music is just as much a part of who I am and I’m thrilled to be back with my Kiss team and digging into my collection to share more old school and anthems.

The new roster of radio talent also features Marvin Humes who will host from 11am-1pm every weekday.

He said: “I am buzzing to become a part of the Kiss family and can’t wait to be back on the radio sharing music I love with listeners.

“It’s such a brilliant way to connect with people and to do that on a station I’ve always loved, it’s an honour.”

I’m sure Marvin will throw in some JLS tunes just for old time’s sake.

Conan crushed

PLENTY of pop stars have joined the mile-high club but American singer Conan Gray did the opposite – he was dumped at 35,000ft.

And I thought my last break up was bad.

Conan was travelling from Los Angeles to London to visit his British lover last year when he was unceremoniously given the boot.

Mind you, his heartbreak inspired his new album, Found Heaven, which came out on Friday.

Every cloud and all that.

In an exclusive chat, Conan said: “I was on a plane to London to see this person and I got dumped over text message.

“Obviously in the moment I was miserable but now it’s pretty f***ing funny.

“It was super interesting because it was the best time of my life, immediately followed by the worst time of my life.

“So the first half of the album that I was making, I was so happy and life was so good. And then finishing the album was like pulling teeth.”

Despite the heartache from his British ex, Conan added: “I really do love London. I could absolutely see myself moving here.”

Luckily he has good mates around him, including best pal Olivia Rodrigo.

Asked if they had written together, he said: “We’ve written for funsies but never for work.

“With all of my friends we do everything we possibly can to stay as great friends as possible.”

On her global success, he added: “There’s nobody else I know that deserves it more.

“There’s so much music that’s so f***ing s**t, so I’m so glad Olivia gets to fill the radio waves with such great music.”

I couldn’t agree more.
