Annalyne McCord shooting beach scenes in yellow bikini

It's cold and grey in Great Britain, but the sun is shining over in America.

One lucky American citizen who's taking advantage of the 70-degree weather is 90210 actress Annalynne McCord.

The 22-year-old, who plays Naomi Clark in the new series of the U.S. show, sported a yellow two-piece bikini while shooting beach scenes in Malibu.

Annalyne's character has fast become the central role, shooting the the actress to stardom in the States, although she is still a relative unknown here in the UK.

Her fame has snowballed due to her on/off relationship with Twilight actor Kellan Lutz.

The 24-year-old plays Emmett Cullen in the hugely-popular vampire movie, the sequel to which, New Moon, is released next week.

The couple have reportedly had their fare share of up and downs this year, after Kellan was allegedly caught kissing another woman on New Year's Eve.

According to a spy at Page Six: 'AnnaLynne was speechless.

'She was noticeably upset and stormed off. Kellan followed her and was seen groveling and begging for her forgiveness and they made up.'

Despite making up, the couple finally split in August after Kellan failed to make an effort on Annalyne's birthday.

But, it seems the relationship is back on, as the couple have recently been pictured kissing outside her apartment in LA.
