Shia LaBeouf isn't exactly famed for his sensible persona. If he isn't wearing a paper bag on his head on the red carpet, he's regaling us with frankly hilarious stories of his infamous arrest. Now, he tells us that he decided he didn't want to be the next Tom Cruise when he realised, on Steven Spielberg's guidance, that he wouldn't be able to pick his nose in public. Interesting.

And Cruise wasn't the only Tom that failed to completely impress Shia. Although the Transformers star says he respects Forrest Gump actor Tom Hanks, he reveals he wasn't too happy with the comparison made between him and the fifty-eight-year old star in a 2007 Vanity Fair article. He reveals: “I just didn't feel like we were cut from the same fabric. My upbringing was darker. They guys who I looked up to were far darker.”

It seems that actors like Joaquin Phoenix and Sean Penn were the type of performer the twenty-eight-year-old related to. Speaking about the stars of Walk the Line and Milk, he says: “When I watched the movies of the guys I admired, it felt like they had put a spin on it.” We can definitely see where Shia is coming from, but how can you not want to BE Tom Hanks? Hell, WE want to be Tom Hanks!

Shia is currently starring opposite Brad Pitt in World War II film, Fury.

Us ladies have it tough. Not only do we have to suffer from annoying periods once a month, but we also have to put up with the cramps, crankiness and cravings that come with them. Boo.

Some would debate that PMS (premenstrual syndrome) is not a true condition, but we beg to differ. Any woman who’s every unexpectedly started crying during an episode of Friends while nursing a tub of Ben & Jerry’s will know that PMS is very, very real.

Here are ten thoughts you’ve no doubt had before or during your time of the month…

1. “I need all the chocolate. All.”
Some days you don’t give that Dairy Milk in the fridge a second thought, other days you’d happily scoff down two bars in a row and still want more. And it’s not just chocolate. Any food in your eye line can and will be eaten.

2. “Surely I’m not the only one crying during the X Factor results show?”
Chloe Jasmine didn’t deserve to lose that sing-off. She’s so LOVELY. *sobs*

3. “God, the Six One News is just really sad tonight…”
Why do bad things happen to good people?

4. “Ow. Bloated.”
The only thing that can help this is a hot water bottle and some duvet time. But of course that crampy, bloated feeling will usually start just as you’re getting dressed for Saturday night drinks. Thanks, Mother Nature. You’re a real dinger.

5. “So tiiiiiired.”
After all that eating and duvet time, the next natural step is to just close your eyes and have a little nap. C’mon, you’ve earned it.

6. “Christ, everyone is so annoying today.”
You never noticed before just how many questions your parents ask. And must everyone be so LOUD?

7. “Or is it me? Am I the annoying one?”
Those fickle hormones. You can never tell if it’s real PMS or if you’re just in one heck of a bad mood. Hopefully it’s the former.

8. “I really want to have sex.”
Why is it that the second our period arrives, we’re dying for some great sex? Just another one of nature’s “quirks.” So unfair!

9. “Oh, a breakout. Great.”
Whether you suffer from bad skin regularly or just around your time of the month, hormonal breakouts are just the worst. Resist the temptation to squeeze!

10. “I’m just so full of emotion right now.”
Who knew Jack Johnson’s music made you so nostalgic? Nothing for it but to weep quietly until the song is over.

Carmen Electra has finally opened up about her marriage to Dennis Rodman and explained the reasons behind the break down of the famous relationship.

The 42-year-old model and actress married the Celebrity Big Brother star back in 1998 at The Little Chapel of the Flowers in Las Vegas, but has since said: “It's easy to get caught up in a moment.” Dennis filed for annulment a mere nine days later, while Carmen filed for divorce in 1999.

 

Speaking to Opera, the Disaster Movie star said: “Our relationship was very passionate. When it was good, it was amazing. And when it was bad, it was the worst.” It may not come as a surprise to learn that the pair's relationship was far from stable, as Dennis has had a highly-publicised battle with alcohol addiction throughout his career and has sought help numerous times, while Carmen was struggling to come to terms with the death of her sister and mother around the time of her relationship with the NBA star.

Carmen since married and divorced Jane's Addiction guitarist, Dave Narvarro while Dennis married and divorced the mother of his two children, Michelle Moyer.

Tulisa has had a tough time of it in recent months, but it looks like the former X Factor judge has picked herself up, dusted herself down and turned her attention back to her first love. Yes, that's right the N-Dubz star has gone back to her roots and will be releasing a comeback single called 'Living Without You'.

In the last year alone, the 26-year-old star has faced drug charges, been dogged by rumours of plastic surgery and learned that ex-flame, Jack O' Connell has moved on with none other than fashion model Cara Delevigne. It's not surprising that Tulisa has dubbed it a 'year from hell'.

The single, due for release on December 7th, has been described as “contrasting garage influences and pop synth with lyrics about desperation and heartbreak” and may, if it does well in the charts, give Tulisa the boost she needs.

The young star is clearly brimming with excitement about it as she tweeted the big announcement this morning and obviously hopes that 'Living Without You' will follow the success of  her track 'Young', which topped the charts back in 2012.

There was a rather unfortunate incident on the Lorraine show today as ITV were forced to evacuate the set following a fire alarm.

The host was in the middle of an interview with X Factor Stephanie Nala, who was eliminated from the singing show the previous night.

Despite trying her very best to power through the commotion, the show had to eventually be abandoned as all staff and guests were forced to evacuate the set.

Dramatic!

Wow, we wish we had these talents!

Font queen Lauren Hom has found a way to barter her amazing lettering skills for a full belly.

The New Yorker offers her menu design skills to restaurants all over the city, for free. The only catch? Every menu item she writes down equals one freebie for her.

"Want to promote your amazing lasagna?" she says on her website. "I’ll do it for a plate of that amazing lasagna. Have the best cocktails in the city? Whip some up for me and I’ll whip up a beautiful sign for you."

Lauren said she got the idea when she spotted sloppy writing on menu boards in restaurants all over New York.

"I noticed that it's common for a restaurant to have a menu board that's written by, like, a hung-over hostess," she said in an interview. "And it's totally not a diss on anyone's handwriting, but I thought, I could do that and make it look kick-ass!"

The artist describes the trade-off as "complete fair barter."

We agree that Lauren had some pretty cool skills, but that's a lot of food to give away for free! However it won't be going to waste – Lauren admits she has a "terrifying, yet impressive appetite."

Does that guy like you? As in, like you like you? There's a few ways to find out…

1. He Slags You Mercilessly
To a degree, of course. But generally, if an Irish lad fancies you he will slag your clothes, call you names and comment on everything you say, this is just how Irish lads flirt. Lucky us.

2. He Talks About You To His Mates
If you introduce yourself to his mate and they already know who you are then that’s a big sign that he’s been blabbing about you to his friends. In there.

3. His Best Friend Nudges Him When He Sees You
Guys love embarrassing each other, so if you walk into the room and you see his best mate nudging him and laughing, it translates into “There’s your one you’re in love with.”

4. He Calls You Late At Night For The Chats
It’s coming up to bed time and he calls you to talk about your day or whatever, then this is a  huge indication that he both wants to talk to you outside of social hours and thinks of you when he’s in bed.

5. He’ll Try Prove His Manliness
Whether it’s being able to carry twelve tents from the entrance of Electric Picnic to the site or simply carrying a box of beer from the off license, he will stubbornly refuse help from anyone else in your company in order to show his strength as a man.

6. He Treats You Differently From The Rest Of His Girl-Friends/Other Ladies
It’s important to observe this carefully. You don’t want to mistake him fancying you for him considering you a really good friend. If he like likes you, then he’ll generally focus his attention on you in a group. Also, notice if his body is turned to you for a extended amount of time.

7. He’ll Wear A Shirt
Dress to impress. This is how most Irish lads will try to show you that he wants you to find him physically attractive and receive credit for dressing up. Say you like his shirt, it’ll make his night.

8. He’s Not Really Interested In Anyone Else
You notice that he hasn’t been texting anyone or has mentioned anyone else, and if he does it’s to see how you react. Try to notice how much he actually interest he actually invests in other women. If he’d rather grab chips with you at the end of the night than go home with a randomer at the club, then he definitely like likes you.

9. He Doesn’t Mind Sharing His Food
This is a big one. No lad likes sharing his food, so if he offers you his last chicken ball, he must really like you.

10. He Always Offers To Help You
Whether it’s just carrying your heavy bag or full on washing your dog, if the extent is too big it means he’s probably desperate for your love.
