SEBASTIAN SHAKESPEARE: Pregnant Kate, a graffiti artist's crowning glory as spray painted picture shows her balancing a crown on her belly Is this the new Banksy? A spray-painted picture of the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge, naked with a miniature crown balancing on her belly, has appeared on a wall in Islington, the North London borough Kate has visited several times on her charity work. The logo for Game Of Thrones, the fantasy TV series in which feudal nobles compete for power, is painted underneath. It is not, however, by the reclusive Banksy, but by rival graffiti artist Pegasus, a 29-year-old American who will disclose only his first name, Chris. The spray painting of the Duchess of Cambridge, which has appeared on a wall in Islington in north London "He spent all night doing this image of Kate because she seems to be really supportive of this borough and people here love her for it," says a spokesman for the Faith Inc Gallery on whose outside wall Kate is painted. It's only been up since last night and I've already had two offers to buy it prised off the wall, which isn't possible anyway. When David Cameron announced a £2.5 million Music Export Growth Scheme to boost the sales of British artists overseas, he may not have imagined the recipients would include Leeds rock band called Pulled Apart By Horses. It remains to be seen whether the group, who burst onto the scene with catchy anthems I Punched A Lion In The Throat and Back To The F*** Yeah, will use their largesse from the taxpayer wisely. "We look forward to them taking their sound around the world and gaining more international fans," says Phil Patterson, music specialist and chief pop-picker at the UK Trade & Investment agency. An actor to stir the emotions? Not Sherlock, says Callow Actor Simon Callow who says young actors like Benedict Cumberbatch fail to dig into the background of characters they play Benedict Cumberbatch is widely praised for his performance in Sherlock, but the Old Harrovian actor has failed to find favour with Simon Callow. Fruity-voiced Callow, 65, best known as the flamboyant Gareth in Four Weddings And A Funeral, claims Cumberbatch, 38, and his fellow young thespians fail to dig into the background of the characters they play. "The actors who are becoming famous now, Cumberbatch and his generation, are concerned solely with the conscious," he says. They just want to act from some position of great mastery, skill and deftness. Whereas, I think one should dig into something deeper so that when you see an actor on stage, all sorts of memories, dreams and mystical understandings start to stir inside you. I think you can, and should, be extremely shaken by an actor. American socialite Kim Kardashian's striking pose, balancing a full champagne coupe on her bare bottom, has failed to impress friends of the late Princess Margaret. They recall how Margaret's chum, the actor John Bindon, who had close links with the underworld, used to impress pals with a party trick that involved balancing half-pint beer mugs - some say as many as five - on his manhood. Labour star Chuka swaps Nando's for posh nosh Labour MP for Streatham Chuka Umunna, who swapped Nandos for lunch at the elegant Wolseley restaurant on London's Piccadilly He was once dubbed a member of "The Nando's Five" for tucking into fried chicken with four fellow Labour MPs from the 2010 intake, comprising Emma Reynolds, Rachel Reeves, Jonathan Reynolds and Luciana Berger (whom he once allegedly dated). But Labour MP for Streatham, Chuka Umunna , yesterday moved upmarket for lunch with two chaps at elegant restaurant The Wolseley on London's Piccadilly alongside fellow diners including Arsene Wenger and Julie Walters. Could the Shadow Business Secretary be celebrating? The New Statesman today claims that party donor Lord Sainsbury has his chequebook ready to back him as a future leader. Now that really does call for more than piri-piri chicken. "My constituents love the fact that I go to Nando's," Umunna has said. But will they love his new penchant for fancy restaurants?
