Serren Bennett, 18, was last seen on June 8 in Guisborough with police becoming increasingly concerned for her safety.

A major search for the “vulnerable” youth was launched when she was reported missing but has so far failed to locate her.

Cops have now shared CCTV footage showing Serren leaving her home address.

The video is the last known sighting of the teen who has now been missing for a week.

The 18-year-old was spotted by a CCTV camera heading to the De Brus Way area at around 7pm on June 8.

Serren is described as 5’6” tall with brown hair and brown eyes, she was last seen wearing a brown coat with fur on the hood, a black skirt, black tights and black shoes.

Cops believe she headed towards the Redcar beach area, near to Majuba car park/South Gare.

Cops have become more and more concerned for her welfare as the frantic hunt for the “vulnerable” teen reaches the seven day mark.

The youth’s disappearance was described as “out of character” for her.

The police have re-issued an appeal for information that could help locate her, asking members of the public who may have seen Serren to come forward.

Specialist officers have been drafted in to comb areas that the teen is known to frequent.

Any members of the public who may have seen Serren have been asked to urgently contact Cleveland Police on 101 quoting ref 105161.

Superintendent Emily Harrison said: “A week has now passed since the last confirmed sighting of Serren, and as time goes on we become increasingly concerned for her welfare, particularly given that she is vulnerable and this is out of character for her.

“Search-trained officers have been in areas where Serren was last seen and where she frequents, as we do everything possible to find her as safely and quickly as we possibly can.

“I would continue to ask members of the public to share the appeals to help us generate information and any sightings of Serren, and anyone who may have information is asked to contact us on 101 as a matter of urgency.”

BRAD Pitt wore a series of wacky outfits at the weekend — sparking speculation he was having a mid-life fashion crisis.

The 61-year-old actor, who previously stated he has no sense of style, left fans gobsmacked at his bizarre wardrobe choices.

He was out in New York on Saturday night with girlfriend Ines de Ramon, 29 years his junior, in an oversized blue velvet blazer with a pinstripe shirt and high-waist jeans.

Earlier he was seen in cream and green cargo trousers before changing into a yellow tie-dye top and trousers to film a TV chat show.

On Friday, he wore an oversized blue silk shirt and ripped velvet black trousers for a double date with Ines, fellow actor Bradley Cooper and his supermodel girlfriend Gigi Hadid.

Fans of the superstar — whose new film F1 is out this month — questioned his wardrobe decisions.

One asked: “Need to know wtf is going on with Brad Pitt’s wardrobe currently. Why is he wearing all that?”

Another replied bluntly: “Midlife crisis I fear.”

As the photographs spread on social media, another commented: “Need a decent stylist to help him choose clothes. Just because it’s in so-called fashion doesn’t mean it’s nice.”

However Brad has previously indicated he has little interest in wearing what is fashionable.

He said: “If I have a style, it’s ‘no style’. It’s led by comfort.

“It’s too exhausting to follow trends. And I despise billboards; I just don’t want to be billboard.”

Brad, who has six children with his ex Angelina Jolie, added: “You get older, you get crankier, and comfort becomes more important.

“I think it’s as simple as that.”

MLB LEGEND Clayton Kershaw has stirred controversy – by adding a religious message to his team’s Pride-themed cap.

The Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher is a devout Christian.

And he’s been unhappy in the past with his baseball franchise supporting the  LGBTQ+ community.

Now he’s taken that a step further – at a match in which he wasn’t even playing.

Kershaw, 37, watched on as the Dodgers hosted the San Francisco Giants.

The LA team wore baseball caps that mixed Pride flag colors with the Dodgers logo.

Kershaw’s altered version of the hat still had the bright new “LA” logo.

But next to that, the 10-time All-Star had inscribed: “Gen 9:12-16.” 

That’s a passage in the Bible that describes the rainbow as a sign of God’s covenant – an agreement between man and God.

And using the rainbow as a Pride symbol is opposed by some groups.

The Bible extract about the rainbow comes after the story of Noah’s Ark.

It tells of a covenant from God to never destroy the earth with a flood again.

The Dodgers upset a radical section of the Christian community two years ago by hosting the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence at their annual Pride Night.

The group regularly dress in drag and often wear nun habits.

And with Kershaw reportedly unhappy over that event, the Dodgers shifted their Christian Faith and Family Day to an earlier date.

But some baseball fans reckon the new controversy is a fuss over nothing.

One said: “The rainbow can have multiple meanings. Why can’t the rainbow mean both?”

Others were “disappointed” with Kershaw and urged him to “stick with sports”.

But a third group praised him as a “class act” for his subtle protest – saying it was “righteous comeback” and he was “sharing biblical truths”.

And a few other religious followers believe he should have gone further – by not wearing the cap at all.

Along with its theatrical rerelease and limited-edition anniversary merch, the cult classic gets a streaming home.

Adam Brody, Ted Danson, John Mulaney, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel and Julio Torres swap war stories about baffling notes and bleak moments in their careers — that is, when they're not erupting in laughter.

These guys possess qualities that would make most women run for the hills.
