This week, Sam Taylor-Wood and actor Aaron Johnson announced their engagement. Way before they came out as a proper couple, Vogue astutely noted the “physical playfulness between Aaron and Sam Taylor-Wood”. Be sure to buy our December issue (on sale now) for the full story of their relationship, and to get the on-set skinny on the artist-turned-director’s debut, Nowhere Boy. Then, come Boxing Day, head to the cinema to see Sam’s beau (I mean fiancé) sizzle on-screen as the young John Lennon, to find out what the fuss is all about. Cougar schmugar – we wish them both bon chance.

Also I’m looking for scans of this vogue issue so if anyone is willing to donate some it would be greatly appreciated!

Jonathan Ross is renowned amongst his celebrity friends for his lavish Hallowe’en parties and last night proved no exception.

The talk show host shrugged off the recession as he spent thousands transforming his Hampstead home into a house of horror.

Jonathan threw himself into the Hallowe’en spirit as he dressed as Johnny Depp’s tragic film character Edward Scissorhands, who has sharp metal scissors in place of human hands.

Also in attendance was newly-engaged couple Sam Taylor-Wood and her toyboy fiancé Aaron Johnson.

Artist Taylor-Wood, 42, was dressed as Little Red Riding Hood, while her husband-to-be Johnson, 19, was the wolf.

The trailer for Nowhere Boy, a film based on the teenage years of the Beatles‘ John Lennon, debuted this week, just days before its premiere tomorrow at the London Film Festival. The movie, directed by Sam Taylor-Wood, was filmed in Lennon’s boyhood city of Liverpool and stars British actor Aaron Johnson as Lennon. The film is based on a book by Lennon’s half-sister Julia Baird called Imagine This: Growing Up With My Brother John Lennon and details the singer’s early life, when he was being raised by his Aunt Mimi, played here by Kristen Scott Thomas, and his own mother Julia.

As the trailer demonstrates, the film will also feature the teenage Lennon meeting Paul McCartney — played by Thomas Sangster — for the first time. The two would later be band mates in the Quarrymen, which laid the foundation for one of the greatest bands of all time. But Nowhere Boy is less about the Beatles’ development and more focused on analyzing Lennon’s relationships with his mother and aunt. Julia died in a car crash in 1958 at the age of 44; John was only 17 at the time.

It’s unclear whether the film secured the rights to use the Beatles’ music in the film, and the trailer doesn’t offer up any clues. What we do know is that Goldfrapp will be contributing to the film’s score and the movie hits theaters in the U.K. on December 25th, but no U.S. release date has been scheduled yet according to IMDB. Rolling Stone previously reported that the Weinstein Company had picked up the distribution rights to the film, but it is not currently on their schedule.

Artist and film-maker Sam Taylor-Wood has celebrated the critical acclaim for her debut feature about the early life of John Lennon by announcing she plans to marry its 19-year-old star, Aaron Johnson.

Tribute: Sam Taylor-Wood with fiance Aaron Johnson, who stars in Nowhere Boy, at the film’s premiere in Leicester Square

Taylor-Wood, 42, a key figure in the Young British Artists movement, fell for Johnson after casting him as Lennon in Nowhere Boy, which premiered at the closing gala of the London Film Festival last night.

A spokesman for the couple confirmed their engagement today and said they are “very happy”.

The artist split amicably from her art dealer husband, Jay Jopling, last year and began seeing Johnson, a relative unknown, earlier this year.

The Evening Standard revealed their relationship after they appeared at the Cannes Film Festival, where she was promoting Nowhere Boy, in May. The film, which tells of Lennon’s early years, has been warmly received by critics.

Johnson, from High Wycombe, has been praised for his role as the teenage Lennon. He has been acting since 2001 and has had parts on television and film roles including The Illusionist and Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging.

After his divorce, Jopling, who owns the White Cube gallery and represents Damien Hirst and other former stars of the Young British Artists movement, went on to have a short relationship with Lily Allen, 22 years his junior.

Like other YBAs Damien Hirst, Jake Chapman and Sarah Lucas, Taylor-Wood studied at Goldsmiths and was taken under the wing of Charles Saatchi. Her work includes her short film of David Beckham sleeping.

Her career in the Nineties was marked by extremes — in 1997, she and Jopling married and she gave birth to their older daughter. Later that year she was nominated for the Turner prize, and diagnosed with colon cancer. Three years later she was diagnosed with breast cancer, which led to her self-portrait about her recovery, Single Breasted Suit with Hare, which hangs at the National Portrait Gallery.

Jopling still represents his former wife and was at the Leicester Square premiere with his girlfriend, writer Rachel Barrett. The couple’s daughters, Angelica, 12, and three-year-old Jessie, were also on the red carpet. Both had roles in the film so they could spend time on set with their mother in Liverpool.

Taylor-Wood last night dedicated the film to Anthony Minghella, who at the time of his death in 2007 was producing her first short film Love you More.

Nowhere Boy is Taylor-Wood’s first feature and tells of the complex relationships between Lennon and his mother, played by Anne-Marie Duff, and his aunt (Kristin Scott Thomas) who raised him.

The director and her young star will attend another premiere in Liverpool next month, before the film goes on general release on Boxing Day.
