Celebrity etiquette

Give your minders the slip and rediscover the spirit of adventure

Despite evidence to the contrary - ie Celebrity Wrestling on ITV - A-listers and physical exertion mix rather well. You don't get to the top of the celebrity tree by being a wet-fish-pushover, so why not use your competitive streak and manic focus to excel at sport, too? Preferably something that requires a lot of kit. Robin Williams, dressed as if partaking in the Tour de France, may have provoked 'dork and Mindy' headlines, but what does he care? He feels good.

Meanwhile, it's surfing that makes Cameron Diaz feel good, or at least it did until she broke her nose catching waves in Hawaii. However, she'll be back on her board in no time.

Flanked by people who watch out for their stray nasal hairs and separate out unacceptable-coloured M&Ms, all danger is eliminated from the celebrity life until they become desperate to put it back in again. So Orlando Bloom spends his free time sky-diving and bungee jumping. There's nothing like jumping 60,000ft out of an aeroplane to keep you grounded.
