Amber, who is mum to one-year-old Sebastian with her soon to be ex-husband, spoke of her heartache, tweeting: “The mornings are especially hard … The pain…I wake up every morning feeling like my best friends died…I never knew what a true heartache was until now.”

Poor Amber – she really must be going through an awful time since walking in on Wiz cheating on her.

Actor, TV presenter and rapper, Nick Cannon, is officially over his marriage to Mariah Carey as he has gotten his tattoo tribute to her covered up.

Nick had ‘Mariah’ tattooed in large font across his back, but it has been transformed into a large religious tribute.

Though it has only been less than two months since the couple’s split was announced, it seems Nick’s tattoo removal may be the nail in the coffin for their marriage.

As far back as August, when Nick did the Ice Bucket Challenge, it is visible that he was in the process of getting the tattoo altered, as it is faded.

All it takes is one or two chords of a Disney song for our entire childhood to come flooding back in a wave of nostalgia.

That's why we have totally fallen in love with this Il Divo version of A Whole New World from Aladdin. And if it wasn't enough that the four lads got together to sing the classic, they also managed to rope in Lea Salogna, who was the singing voice of Jasmine in the 1992 film.

One listen to this and you'll feel all warm and fuzzy inside for the rest of the day.

Pure perfection!

Our Beauty Blogger of the Week is the amazing Lauren Arthurs, creator of Love Lauren. 

This Cork native has recently moved back to Ireland after a stint in London.

Lauren started blogging in January 2013 as a hobby, but her site has since blossomed into something much bigger. As well as insights into her life, style and beauty routine, the blog also features an online boutique and an area for readers to sell their own pre-loved clothes and accessories. Very impressive!

We caught up with Lauren to get some of her beauty secrets…

1. What is your best budget beauty buy?
My best budget buy is definitely the Mua ‘stick’ concealer. I think it costs around €2 and comes in 3 different shades. It's so fab for covering up those bags. 

2. What is your top make-up tip?
Apply your foundation almost instantly after applying your moisturiser. That way, your face is still dewy and your make-up spreads much more evenly.

3. Most girls have a much-loved lipstick – what's yours?
Hmmm, that's a tough question as lipstick is my favourite make-up product and I use so many different colours and brands – but my favourites would have to be Nyx 561 'Violet Ray' & 'Red 01' from Kate Moss' line for Rimmel.

4. What was your very first perfume and what are you currently wearing?
My first perfume was Escada 'Paradise' which is really lovely but it's more of a sweet summer smell. Now I wear Dolce & Gabbana 'Light Blue' which is such a gorgeous fresh smell. I love it! 

5. You're only allowed to use three make-up products for the rest of your life… what are they?
Face moisturiser, mascara and Vaseline! I’m not a person to wear too much make-up but I feel naked without mascara! I think most girls do. 

Check out Lauren's site here – and for even more updates you can follow her on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!

Jennifer Lawrence seems to have been one of the hacker(s) most targeted victim with a LOT of her personal photos going public back in August.

The Hunger Games actress has remained silent on the issue and the media have since been focused on her blossoming romance with Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin.

Jennifer spoke with Vanity Fair (and her cover is STUNNING) about the photos, and how she feels about the whole situation: “I was just so afraid. I didn’t know how this would affect my career.”

She also said she tried to write a statement, but just couldn’t: “Every single thing that I tried to write made me cry or get angry. I started to write an apology, but I didn’t have anything to say sorry for. I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years. It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he’s going to look at you.”

She remains strong about the whole incident, saying: “It is not a scandal. It is a sex crime. It is a sexual violation. It’s disgusting.”

Jennifer also condemned anyone who may have looked at the photos, and says even people she knows did so: “Anybody who looked at those pictures, you’re perpetuating a sexual offense. You should cower with shame. Even people who I know and love say, ‘Oh yeah, I looked at the pictures.’ I don’t want to get mad, but at the same time I’m thinking, ‘I didn’t tell you that you could look at my naked body.’”

The FBI are currently investigating the disgraceful invasion into Jennifer, and so many others personal photos and videos, however no arrests or prosecutions have taken place yet.

Men sometimes take us too literally – we often don' say what we mean. Okay, maybe that makes it our fault. Here is a list of things women say in an argument that can often throw the opposite sex. 

1. "It’s not what you said, it’s the way you said it"
We realise now we may have over-reacted but we're hardly going to admit that are we?

2. "Do What You Want!"
You better do exactly what you think you should do and most definitely NOT what you want. 

3. "I Don’t Care What You Do"
We really do care.

What do you wanna eat?. .. It is simple. "What do you want?" "I don't know" "Fine, I'll choose." "I don't want that." "Nuh-uh you don't get to

4. "I’m Sorry You Feel That Way"
Ya, sorry you feel the wrong way. 

5. "I Don’t Want to Talk About It"
Your move punk.

6. "Typical!"
She’s being thinking you’re a bit of an eejit for a while now

7. "How Can You Not See Why I’m Mad?"
Do I have to cry for you to realise that?

8. "I’m Not Mad, I’m Just Upset"
The girlfriend equivalent of when a parent says: "We're not mad, just a little disappointed." 

9. Just be Sorry. "BUT YOU’RE NOT SORRY, STOP LYING."
Are you…are you? SMILING?! Get out now. 

10. "It’s Fine."
You may as well move out because it is sooooo not fine.

Shane Filan’s autobiography My Side of Life is revealing a LOT of juicy celeb secrets – like that time he got slapped in the face by Louis Walsh!

Shane and the rest of the Westlife lads were auditioning for Simon Cowell but Shane had been out the night before with then-girlfriend (now his wife) Gillian and was feeling a little worse for wear.

After a rather disastrous rendition of a Backstreet Boys’ song, Louis stormed up to Shane, slapped him and said: “What the fu** was that, Shane?! … It was sh**! He didn’t like you!”

It would appear that unlike Louis, Simon didn’t think Shane looked, acted or sang like a pop star…but Louis solved all of that.

Dying his hair blonde, Shane went for another audition, this time impressing the music mogul and signing Westlife to Syco.

There is more baby news in celebland today as it has been revealed that Neve Campbell is expecting her second child!

The Scream actress is already a mum to two-year-old Caspian with her partner JJ Feild.

Fans can expect the actress to choose an equally unique name for her new bundle of joy, as she previously explained her son’s name, saying: “I liked the idea of a unique name. It’s nice having something special and different and so I wanted something like that for our son.”

Update 8th October: Neve's rep has since denied the pregnancy reports, stating that the actress is not expecting a baby. Hmmm…. how did those rumours start, so?! Very strange!

Halloween is fast approaching, and with it comes the stress and panic of choosing your costume.

Not just any one mind you, but an outfit that will get people talking. Put down that witches cape or that sexy Playboy bunny outfit – things are about to get real!

Here are our top picks for some VERY current Halloween looks to impress at this year's party. Now, they mightn't be the sexiest of costumes, but that's all part of the fun we think!

1. Taylor Swift's "No It's Becky" ensemble
Taylor joined Tumblr recently and though it took her a while to get the hang of it, she soon jumped on board and won the internet with her response to the "No it's becky" photo that had been trending online for a few months. 

All you need is a yellow t-shirt with a few words inked on, a tartan shirt/skirt and some cute ankle boots. It's an outfit in itself!

2. Trish from Love/Hate
This RTÉ drama started up again recently, so by the time Halloween hits it's sure to be all anyone's talking about. Some brown or black hair extensions, anything remotely tight or leopard printed, a duck-face pout and you're good to go.

3. Elsa from Frozen
You'll be the envy of seven-year-olds everywhere with this costume. This is a great option if you're looking to keep things sweet and girly. Just walk around like you're terrified to touch anything in case it turns to ice – sorted!

4. Daenerys from Game of Thrones
If there is any show on TV that lends itself to Halloween dress-up, it's G.O.T. And who better to dress up as than Daenerys, Mother of Dragons? You can re-use your Frozen wig for this one too!

5. An Ice Bucket Challenge victim
We've all just about recovered from having our Facebook feeds overtaken by Ice Bucket videos – now it's time to exploit the phenomenon for your costume. You'll need a plastic bucket and some silver tinsel or clear plastic sheeting – anything that could resemble pouring water. To really look authentic, retire to the bathroom every once in a while to pour more water on your head.

6. Olivia Pope from Scandal
Your office wear can double as a Halloween costume too, you know. Anything neutral – cream, white, beige or grey will work. Top the look off with a swanky hat and sip your drink only from an oversized wine glass for the night.

7. Spider Dog
This is technically a costume for your pet but it'll definitely be a memorable one! The spider dog video struck fear into the hearts of millions when it was released last month. This costume takes a but of crafting but it will be so worth it!

 

8. Alex from Orange is the New Black
Don a prison suit, draw on some flicks with your eyeliner, repeatedly take your glasses on and off and be very snarky to everyone who approaches you. Easy!

9. Jasmine Tridevil
In what was surely the biggest internet hoax in years, Alisha Hassler convinced the world's media that she was a three-breasted woman named Jasmine Tridevil who'd had surgery to get an extra boob. The aim? To become "unattractive to men." Needless to say, it was all a lie. You'll need to alter your bikini for this one, and don't forget the heavy eye make-up and dyed black hair!

It has been reported that Orlando Bloom has his eyes set on a leading lady…none other than Wolf of Wall Street's Margot Robbie!

Apparently The Hobbit actor has been sending the Australian beauty gifts in a bid to get her to go on a date with him.

It has been rumoured that they had been spotted kissing at a Golden Globes party back in January but things have been quiet until now.

Only one thing stands in the way of this couple becoming hot Hollywood property – Margot’s boyfriend.

He may have his work cut out for him on that one – let’s hope this doesn’t end in fisticuffs like it did with Justin Bieber

Katie Waissel has blasted Cheryl Fernandez-Versini’s comeback on The X Factor and she certainly isn’t holding back!

The former X Factor contestant was speaking to New! magazine when she slammed her former mentor, saying: “She’s the only one who’s been disgusting to be honest – to make such comments, youre like, ‘Wait, who are you?’ … It’s annoying – it’s not even TV, it’s just nasty. Simon Cowell has given her a second chance. She should make the most of it. It’s a bit of a s*** show, to be honest.”

Katie was referring to Cheryl's attitude towards contestant Raign, who she took an instant dislike to. 

Katie didn’t stop there though…oh no. She went on to well and truly put down Cheryl’s singing, saying: “I don’t want her to sing through it and I don’t think anybody else does. She looks beautiful in her calendar but, no, don’t sing Cheryl. She can dance. But stop it.”

Ooh, something tells us Katie has it out for Cheryl! 

And we all know Cheryl is not one to let a good Twitter war go to waste…
