Stars stock up for Christmas

It looks like Act 1, Scene 1 from a '70s stage show, but it's just Australian music's golden couple Daniel Johns and Natalie Imbruglia after a day's Christmas shopping.

The couple, back in town to spend Christmas on the Central Coast and in Newcastle with their families, used Sydney as centre stage for their shopping spree ahead of going up north for festivities.
While Imbruglia grew up on the Central Coast and Johns is a true blue Newcastle lad, the pair yesterday negotiated the city, referring to a Sydney guide book.
In their second solid day of battling the pre-Christmas crowds through Pitt St Mall, Johns and Imbruglia, who was sporting a new short hairdo, spent time in an adventure store, a book store and a florist before heading back to their city hotel.
Johns, who has kept up a buffed physique since recovering from reactive arthritis, has been revelling in the Aussie summer, lapping up Homebake earlier this month and preparing for his Hunter Valley performance with Silverchair.
