Back in March, Kate Upton was announced as the new face of Bobbi Brown and the supermodel looks absolutely flawless in the campaign.

The 22-year-old, who replaces Katie Holmes, is the face of Bobbi Brown’s Surf and Sand collection and the campaign has a true California beach vibe to it.

Kate was chosen to represent the brand by its founder Bobbi Brown, who was looking for someone “confident” and “independent” and Kate certainly is both of these.

The actress admits that she likes to keep things simple when it comes to make-up and Bobbi Brown even admitted: “Kate came to the shoot without a stitch of makeup, she is the girl next door, really fresh and the epitome of all-American.”

The blonde beauty will be showcasing the brand’s new range of colours including sandy neutrals, surfy blues and sunset pinks just in time for the summer.

The campaign will be launched in July.

Transformers star Shia LaBeouf has been arrested and charged with two counts of disorderly conduct and one count of criminal trespassing.

The actor was at the Broadway show Cabaret (which is starring Michelle Williams) and decided to start smoking drugs, yelling and slapping people on the back of the head, and, of course, on the bum.

He was asked to leave by security but refused, so police were called. Apparently he was threatening the NYPD when he was escorted out, aswell as random people passing by.

A source has revealed that when they got him to the police station and tried to take off his handcuffs, LaBeouf started shouting: “F**k you. I’ll f**k you up”. Obviously they thought it best to leave the handcuffs on after that.

He also decided to spit in their faces so they put a mask on his face.

Seriously, what caused this guy to go so off the rails?

Courteney Cox surprised fans this morning by tweeting a photo of herself and Snow Patrol’s Johnny McDaid with the caption: “I’m engaged to him!”

Johnny also posted the same picture saying: “I’m engaged to her!”

Awh! Courteney was spotted out with a huge diamond last night and speculation was rising about whether or not they were actually engaged – we’re delighted it’s true!

The pair were on holiday in Amanyara in Turks and Caicos to celebrate Monica’s – sorry – COURTENEY’S 50th birthday. An eye witness saw the pair out together:

“It was very romantic and a beautiful setting. Courteney looked like there was nowhere else in the world she would rather be and just so happy to be doing what she was doing. Johnny was doting on her, rubbing her leg and passing her a cold towel when she got hot. They seem very happy together and totally in love.”

Courteney and Johnny were first spotted out together at Jennifer Aniston’s party in Bel Air, California, and Ed Sheeran revealed that it was actually him that introduced them!

“I wasn’t allowed to talk about this, actually, but it’s just gone public so… My housemate [McDaid] who I’ve lived with for a year, I introduced him to Courteney Cox. They started dating and [are] crazy about each other.

“I ended up spending a lot of time living in her beach house and therefore bumping into all these random people. We spent Thanksgiving eve at Jennifer Aniston’s before spending the day at Courteney’s.”

Wow, Ed is really hanging out with the right kind of people!

Kesha has opened up for the first time about going to rehab and battling her eating disorder.

The 27-year-old singer revealed that the constant public scrutiny and media commentary played a big part in her breakdown.

“I’m in an industry where people photograph your body and zoom in and blow it up and put it on the cover of magazines, and other people make terrible comments. It really messed with my head, and I realized I couldn’t do it by myself.”

Kesha went on to deny rumours which claimed that she went to rehab for substance abuse, but insisted her attendance was to help her overcome her eating disorder.

“Let’s just get the elephant out of the room. My eating disorder is something I’ve been struggling with for a while. People will make up stories, but I went to rehab for an eating disorder — nothing more and nothing less.”

Kesha went on to say that attending rehab was the “scariest thing she’s ever done” but believes it saved her life.

“The decision to take control of it is the scariest thing I’ve ever done. And this is coming from someone who dives with sharks and jumps out of airplanes for fun. To have a breakthrough you have to have a breakdown, and I definitely went through both of those — in hindsight, it saved my life.”

The Timber singer feels stronger after attending rehab and is ready to make more music.

“The whole process has made me so much stronger and ready to take my life by the horns and make a record that I’m going to be proud of and not care what anybody else thinks!”

While many of us are already familiar with the popular photo sharing app that is Snapchat – it seems it’s popularity is now moving to a younger demographic.

13-year-old, Ruby Karp revealed in an account for Mashable that the app is now being used as form of free communication between teens.

She said like the majority us, that she mostly uses the app to share selfies with friends.

Ruby who is from New York, talked about the downsides of Snapchat  as well, which is the nude selfies.

“But it can also be used for other types of photos: the stuff of nightmares for parents. With Snapchat, your nude cannot (typically) be traced back to you, due to the fact that the photo literally lasts 10 seconds, or less. This is pretty appealing to teens and adults looking for a ‘good time.’”

Ruby even shared a screenshot of one incident where she was asked to send a nude selfie. While the 13-year-old said she wasn’t comfortable with sharing intimate shots on the site she was aware of some friends who did.

“There have been incidents with nudes being screenshotted among my friends. And remember Snap Save an app where you can screenshot the picture sent to you, without the person knowing.”

While the photo sharing app can be used a great way of free communication between friends, Ruby also highlighted that it can also be used as a tool for bullying.

“I try not to say anything risky in text messages, and I think bullies have the same method: They’re saving it for Snapchat. I have received hurtful Snapchats, but I have no proof that they ever said anything to me, because the picture went away in 10 seconds.”

While Ruby acknowledged the downsides of using the app, she insists parents have nothing to worry about.

“I think it is up to you how you use the app. And to every overprotective parent out there: As crazy as it may sound, don’t fret too much over the app. I’m sure your kid is just sending some ugly selfie of themselves! But if your kid takes off clothing, goes into the bathroom, shuts the door and you do not hear the shower water coming on: Be very afraid.”

All this talk of air travel strikes has got us feeling a little worried about our summer holidays. While the French air traffic controllers’ strike, which caused a hell of a lot of disruption, is now over, it hasn’t put our mind at ease that something like this might happen again…

Here’s what you need to know if your flight does get cancelled:

Call the airline
As soon as you hear a whisper that your flight is cancelled, call your airline. They will be able to tell you what is happening.

Know your rights
As a passenger you have rights so make sure you are aware of them.  For a cancelled flight your airline must offer you re-routing either straight away or at a later date or a full refund.

Compensation
Compensation only depends on your flight and reasons for cancellation. Don’t hold out for a pay package – the most you will ever get is €600 and that’s if you are going long haul.

Assistance
You are entitled to meals, accommodation and transfers if needed but only if you choose the re-routing option. If you ask for a full refund don’t expect to receive any more from the airline.

It seems there might seem truth behind the drug rumours surrounding Rob Kardashian, as TMZ have now released pictures of the reality star taking suspicious substances.

According to sources the pictures show Rob “smoking marijuana” with friends. The pictures also show Rob  being surrounded by cups which contain “Sizzrup “, which is a codeine-packed cough syrup mixed with soda.

The snaps which have just been released were apparently taken a few days ago. Rob  is also seen holding a cup with the words “Codeine Boys” emblazoned on it in of the candid shots.

Sources close to Rob said that 27-year-old is acting this way as he feels excluded from the Kardashian family.

“He feels completely estranged from his sisters and family. He really isn’t in a good place.”

Sources went on to say that his family have been trying to get him to go rehab but he still refuses to go.

Rob previously tweeted about reports surrounding his weight gain and the rumours about him going to rehab.

“Y’all must have run out of real news. First, i don’t believe in rehab or therapy or anything of that sort and second I’m a grown man and will work on myself when i choose.”

“I’m aware that I’m fat that def aint a surprise to me lol and my only therapy will be in the gym anyways had to say somethingggggggggg.”

Rob and his family have yet to respond to the pictures.

Miley is always surrounded by some form of criticism mostly due to her crazy on-stage antics, but actress, Shailene Woodley believes that the critics need to lay off Miley.

The Fault in Our Stars actress was commenting on how people are quick to judge her and Miley for the way they’re often portrayed in the media.

“Miley isn’t rude or mean or cruel to anyone in her actions. She just does herself. And regardless of whether you agree with what she’s doing or not, it’s none of your business what she does.”

Shaline says she sympathises with Miley, as she also knows what it’s like to be misunderstood. She went on to say that people should focus on other things instead of constantly criticising the singer.

“She’s not in the world doing mean things. Why are all these parents or all these people freaking out about Miley being herself? If you don’t want your kids to watch it, you know, you can change that situation at home, but don’t make a big deal of what she’s doing. Make a big deal about the bullies at school who are beating kids up.”

Well it seems Shailene is a Miley fan, we wonder what the Wrecking Ball singer thinks about this?

Have you been missing your favourite TV show after its explosive season finale last week? Well fret not, as this adorable remake using pugs is going to fill that emptiness in your soul. Fair enough, it doesn’t go into any plot details, nor does it have an actual script, but just look at them!  We don’t want to get ahead of ourselves, but we think it could be better than the original.
