Eliza previously spoke about how she was excited about the chapter of her life that was unfolding.

She said, ''I'm newly married and I'm just so excited about this next chapter in my life. You know, I've been acting since I was 9-years-old and I'm sort of finding these new things that I'm really excited about. It's been a big year but a great year."

Huge congrats to the pair, we wish Eliza a happy and healthy pregnancy.

'Trashy' films are considered to refer to low budget movies, badly made flicks and those which include explicit features within.

Think 21 Jump Street, John Tucker Must Die, Sharknado and pretty much any films featuring Adam Sandler.

For a long time, it has been assumed that people who enjoy watching films such as these were of low intelligence… rude much?

Luckily for us 'trashy' flick fans, a study published in Poetics: Journal of Empirical Research on Culture, the Media and the Arts has reversed the idea that only uncultured souls binge watch Mean Girls all day.

The research carried out investigated how the phrase 'trashy movies' in terms of pop culture could be utilised in a better way.

The online survey collected data from regular viewers of films considered trashy, and measured their intelligence and IQ. The result? They're darn ACADEMICS.

One reason why these films appealed to people with high IQ's was the ironic value of the badly made films, as well as the culturally subversive elements.

Trashy films can be less cautious with its use of plot-lines and execution, less rigid in structure, which is enjoyable for smart folk allegedly.

More original ideas and less clichés seemingly feature in badly made movies…interesting. *strokes chin* Trashy dramas with absurd plots and terrible acting can also be plain GAS to watch, it's so bad that it's good. 

There's a reason why the world and it's mother watched A Christmas Prince, and it ain't because of the acting lads.

Who knew that Kris Jenner was the queen of ad-libbing?

The Kardashian momager is a key cameo in Ariana Grande's iconic noughties-inspired Thank U, Next music video, and the blooper reel has just been gifted to us and all we can say is; God is a Woman.

That woman is Kris.

Blooper reels are undeniably traditional when it comes to 1990s romantic comedies, and Ari has also bequeathed the audience with a WHOLE DELETED SCENE from the Legally Blonde aspect of the video.

The "I'm taking the f*cking dog" scene from the renowned Reese Witherspoon flick features Ari masquerading as Jennifer Coolidge's lawyer while confronting her ex-boyfriend.

Troye Sivan getting smashed into a locker multiple times also features ("she's gonna f*cking slam me, I just know it"), not to mention a GAS moment where Miranda Sings' water breaks while Ari (AKA Regina George) walks past her. 

The funniest part HAS to be Kris Jenner getting a little too into her cameo role as Regina George's mom.

While in the audience recording her beloved 'daughter' performing the song, Jenner whispers to the woman beside her;

“When I was raising Ariana I always told her that if a guy ever f*cks with her, she should just say "thank u, next." I told her … if she ever had sex without a condom, she’d get chlamydia and die.”

Wow, now THAT is called good acting.

As well as Mean Girls and Legally Blonde, the acclaimed video also paid tribute to Bring It On and 13 Going On 30.

Check out the blooper reel below:

Ariana Grande is gearing up to release her second music video for the anthem Thank u, Next. 

The singer has been dropping hints about the video since she began filming – giving us serious 00s nostalgia. 

Ariana has posted a series of snaps dressed up as Regina George, holding Burn Book, and with actor Jonathan Bennett who played Aaron Samuels in the cult flick.

This culmination of references led fans to believe the video was Mean Girls focused, however, a behind the scenes video released by Ari shows that there were a few films which will receive homage in Thank u, Next 2.0.

The behind the scenes shows recreated scenes from Bring It On, Legally Blonde and 13 Going On 30.

Ariana is starring alongside actors from the original films in the upcoming videos, including Jennifer Coolidge and Stefanie Drummond (yup, army pants and flip flops girl).  

We cannot WAIT for the actual video to drop today:

When Kirsten Dunst was a teenager, her role in Bring It On pretty much made her a household name.

In fact, some people still recognise her more for that role then many of her more recent projects. Which we can’t exactly blame them for, because there were some fantastic lines in that epic cheerleading tale.

Like many other actresses enjoying their time in the spotlight, Kirsten was asked to be on the cover of a popular magazine. Remember when 18-year-old Kirsten Dunst appeared in Maxim magazine topless bar a denim jacket?

Well she certainly does, and apparently not with fond memories.

The Maxim cover

In an interview with Stylist, Kirsten said she felt forced to do the photo shoot with less clothes than she was ever comfortable wearing.

She then followed up by admitting that she was “bullied” into that particular cover shoot —in order to promote the release of Bring It On.

“I was too young, I didn’t like it,” she added, “Not good. But then I got a whole new team of people!”

That’s the kind of experience that gives us the super creepy feelings. 

Kirsten, who is doing press to promote her role in the series Fargo, said that at the time she didn’t feel confident enough or understand how to say “no” to the shoot.

On a lighter note, she revealed that she is still pretty close with her former co-star Tom Cruise:

"He sends me cake every Christmas. I call it the Cruise Cake," Dunst added. "It's so good—a coconut cake with white chocolate chips. It gets eaten within a day in my house.

When the Cruise Cake gets delivered, it's like, 'Cruise Cake's here!' My friends know what that means."

Still totally bitchin', and still with really great hair!

The stars of Bring It On reunited for the ultimate flashback experience to 15 years ago when cheerleaders were the absolute queens of the teen universe.

Kirsten Dunst, Gabrielle Union, Eliza Dushku and Jesse Bradford sat down with Entertainment Weekly to talk about how the low-budget 2000 movie was transformed into a complete cult classic.

"Even when I’m promoting different movies or my TV show, people still want to talk about Bring It On," Gabrielle said. 

Joining a cheer-squad was not necessarily fitting with their off-screen personas. 

"I was a tomboy growing up and kind of an anti-cheerleader in real life," Eliza explained.

"But I begrudgingly showed up for the audition, probably a little hungover. There were girls doing flips in the lobby, and I kind of cringed and dodged them and went in, and I guess Peyton [Reed] just found that hilarious. He asked me if I could do a split, so I got onto the ground into a split, and that was it."

Kirsten Dunst admitted that she remembers "not being super sure about it."

"I was like, ‘A cheerleading movie?’ It sounded like it could have been just a cheesy teen movie, but what sealed the deal for me was talking to the director," she explained.

Gabrielle added that while she played plenty of sports in school, nothing had ever prepared her for how intense cheerleading was going to be:

"Those rehearsals were some of the lower points in my life — I questioned my very existence. Everything hurt. That’s probably why there are a lot of close-ups of me, not wide shots."

Well, that sounds delightful, truly.

It was defintely worth it in the end as while Bring It On cost €24 million to make, it has grossed almost €90 million across the globe since it was released, accoording to Box Office Mojo.
