The look of love: Penelope Cruz and actor husband Javier Bardem only have eyes for each other as they sit courtside at the LA Lakers game yesterday


It wasn't the most romantic or festive place to spend a cosy Christmas Day.

But Penelope Cruz didn't even notice her sporting surroundings as she kissed and cuddled up to husband Javier Bardem at the basketball yesterday.

The actress, who is six months pregnant with the couple's first child, looked very loved up as she and Bardem smooched in their courtside seats at the LA Lakers vs Miami Heat match.

The couple put on their public display of affection after the 'kiss cam' zoomed in on them in the crowd, prompting them to smooch to the delight of the clapping audience.

The 36-year-old actress only had eyes for her 41-year-old actor spouse although she did managed to tear her eyes away from her beloved as she caught up on the game on the big screens.

She looked happy and healthy with a gorgeous pregnancy glow as she and Bardem chatted and kissed as the game was played out next to them.

Penelope was then warmly greeted by Miami Heat team president Pat Riley, who took her hand and chatted to her and Bardem.

The couple, who started dating in 2007 and married in July this year, were among a number of celebrities that had put the festivities on hold and headed to the Staples Center in Los Angeles to watch the Lakers get beaten 80-96 by Miami Heat.
