Rihanna is being sued by her former Irish bodyguard.

The Rude Boy singer is being sued for defamation by her former head of security, after allegedly sending an “untrue” and damaging email to him and his wife.

Dublin-based Geoffrey Keating claims the pop star made ”nauseatingly offensive” and false statements about him in an email sent to him and his wife last July.

Mr Keating also claims the star used the same defamatory allegations in a telephone call to his sister.

Mr Keating, who worked for Rihanna on her Diamonds tour between October 2012 and July 2013, claims the comments have tarnished his reputation and damaged the future of his business.

He is seeking damages against the singer and he also wants her to publish a correction of the alleged defamation.

Mr Keating’s solicitor Gerald Kean, was granted permission yesterday to serve the singer with the legal papers at her New York home.

We’ve all caught the whiff of sun tan lotion that bring us right back that amazing holiday with the girls, or a certain aftershave that makes us go weak at the knees.

Well, there’s a science behind it!

Our smelling response is directly linked to the emotional centre of our brain, causing a flood of warm and fuzzy feelings with a simple sniff.

But aside from their memory-inducing powers, certain scents can also do amazing things for our mind and body.

1. Lavender
As a go-to scent for relaxation, lavender can help calm the mind and body almost instantly. Next time you’re having trouble getting some shut-eye, try turning to the soothing scent for a little help.

2. Cinnamon
This cosy-smelling spice is great for boosting your brain power. Researchers found that those who took a whiff of cinnamon noticeably improved in brain functions like working memory and attention span.

3. Pine
There’s more than one reason why pine trees bring us cheer around Christmas. A pine scent could be decreasing our anxiety. In one study, participants who went on a walk through pine forests reported significantly lower depression and stress levels. Use that as an excuse the next time your family wants to get rid of the Christmas tree right away!

4. Freshly-cut grass
The fresh scent of cut grass may be making you happier. Scent researchers found that a chemical released by a newly-mowed lawn can make people feel joyful and relaxed. The aroma may also prevent mental decline as you grow older.

5. Citrus
Scents like lemon and orange are not only well-known for their Vitamin C properties, but simply sniffing the fruit can help boost energy and alertness.

6. Vanilla
Researchers found that taking a whiff of the vanilla bean elevated people’s feelings of joy and relaxation. The results were measured through mood mapping, which included emotions ranging from happiness and stimulation to apathy and irritation.

7. Peppermint
In addition to giving you sweet breath, peppermint may also do your brain a favour. Known for invigorating the mind, it’s even been used as an aid for students when taking tests.

8. Jasmine
This floral scent has serious mood perks. The jasmine is not only said to create a sense of alertness, it can also help when you’re feeling blue. Pretty powerful for such a tiny flower!

Miley Cyrus has finally spoken about her “scary” illness, which forced her to cancel many of her March tour dates.

The 21-year-old singer was on the Ryan Seacrest show, when she admitted being rushed to hospital was a “scary time” for her.

“You have no idea. I was on this medicine for five days, everything was all good, and on the sixth day, I just woke up and it was so scary.”

The Wrecking Ball singer said, that despite being very sick in hospital, she still wanted to perform, but doctors wouldn’t let her.

“When you’re allergic to something, you’re basically poisoning yourself, so I had just basically been poisoning myself with something I didn’t know I was really scary allergic to. It was so scary. It was insane. I was begging the doctors, ‘Let me out to go do the show!’ It was basically, ‘No way.'”

Miley revealed she is finally on the road to recovery but, still needs to be careful as her illness could return at any time.

“It can come back within those 27 days, but I’ve been really good. I just have to now be more careful and I’m trying to figure out how I can get a fashionable yet good ID bracelet so I can actually have something that says I am allergic to this medicine, because I can never get anything like this again.”

It seems there is no end in sight, when comes to feud between the Jenner sisters and Selena Gomez.

Khloe Kardashian jumped to her sisters’ defence last Friday and now it seems, the Jenner sisters are telling others that Selena is the one at fault, not them.

Selena apparently wanted to end all ties with Kendall and Kylie, and decided to unfollow the two reality stars on Instagram.

Reports are revealing the reason behind Gomez’s strange decision, was as a a result of Kylie and Kendall spending time with Selena’s on and off boyfriend, Justin Bieber.

A source close to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ stars said that Selena is the one at fault and the Come Get It singer, is the one that party’s too hard.

“Selena has it twisted – not only do Kendall and Kylie eschew drugs and alcohol … they believe Selena’s the real drama-obsessed party girl. After all, she’s the one who’s been to rehab.”

The source continued to say, that the two sisters feel they are better off without Selena in their lives.

It doesn’t look like these three girls are going to kiss and make up, any-time soon.

Jude Law has stepped in to replace Irish actor Michael Fassbender in his upcoming movie Genius.

The Sherlock Holmes actor will star opposite Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman in the movie, which is based on A. Scott Berg’s biography of editor Max Perkins.

Perkins worked with literary great Thomas Wolfe on a number of his books, and the pair developed a complex friendship which changed their lives forever. Intriguing!

Law will play the celebrated writer, while Firth will star as his editor Perkins. Kidman’s role is yet to be revealed.

Director Michael Grandage is planning to begin pre-production in August and the film will start shooting in October.

The project was first announced in 2012 as Max Perkins: Editor Of Genius and Shame star Fassbender was picked for the role.

But now it seems the Irish actor’s busy work schedule means that Law will fill the role instead.

Win-win, we think!

Lorde is never one to shy away from confrontation so when she saw her friend Iggy Azalea being slammed by music critics, she didn’t take it lying down.

The magazine in question, Complex, featured Iggy on their cover a few months ago but that didn’t stop them from printing a scathing review of her new album, ‘The New Classic.’

Lorde took to Tumblr and wrote: “bugs me how publications like complex will profile interesting artists in order to sell copies/get clicks and then shit on their records? it happens to be all the time – pitchfork and that ilk being like ‘can we interview you?’ after totally taking the piss out of me in a review. have a stance on an artist and stick to it. don’t act like you respect them then throw them under the bus.”

Iggy showed her appreciation for Lorde’s response and wrote on her Twitter account: “I agree @lordemusic media LOVE to flop about, But when you’re completely spineless Im sure its hard to stick to even ur own opinion #GoGirl.”

Yikes, we wouldn’t want to mess with these two strong ladies!

It has been a few years now since Jamie Oliver was The Naked Chef, but it seems he is missing those heartthrob days!

The celebrity chef uploaded this hilarious image to his Instagram account of his wife’s screen saver.

It would appear that Jools Oliver has very similar taste to her daughters and Jamie admits that every woman in his house now has Harry Styles as their screensaver.

The only exception to the rule is little Petal, but that’s only because she doesn’t have a computer!

Jamie complained: “MY WIFE’S SCREEN SAVER!! I mean Harry That means you have 3 out of 4 screen savers in the whole Oliver girls family and its only not a full house because petal doesn’t have a computer … mmmmm I need to find a way to get me back on her screen saver. What can I do?? have a good night guys jamie #GirlsAreGrowingUpFast #WifesGoneFeral … #IsItBecauseMyScreenSaverIsABasketOfVeg.”
