It sounds like Chris Hemsworth may not be Miley Cyrus’ biggest fan after these comments!

The Thor star was talking to GQ magazine about his brother Liam’s past mistakes saying: “I’ve watched Liam do things I did at his age, like being in relationships he shouldn’t be in, or reckless just to prove a point. And I had no empathy. My mom had to remind me I was the same way.”

Ouch! We’re glad Mrs. Hemsworth (who is something of a legend around here for obvious reasons) is sticking up for her youngest son and his choice in women!

Liam and Miley were engaged from 2012 until their relationship ended in September 2013. Miley is now dating Patrick Schwarzenegger, son of the actor Arnold. 

However, despite their break-up Liam doesn't have a bad word to say about Miley, telling Nylon magazine back in October: "there's no bad blood there."

This is just awful! TOWIE star Maria Fowler was left bloody and bruised after she was attacked on a night out in Derby last night.

Photos of the reality TV star’s injuries appeared to have been taken by reporters at the scene and she later tweeted the news story herself. Maria also let her followers know that she wasn’t feeling the best, tweeting: “I’ve felt better…”

The incident was thought to have happened at the end of a night out, at around 2.30am on Sunday night. Speaking to the Daily Star, a rep for Maria said that she won’t be making any comment about the assault for a while: “Maria is still in shock so won’t be commenting at the moments. However, it was a random attack.”

The police in the local area have also confirmed they are “investigating an assault on a 28-year-old woman.”

Feel better soon, Maria – what an awful thing to happen!

With temperatures getting dangerously close to freezing, your body needs warm and nourishing foods to keep it going. That doesn't mean you need to fill up on high-fat meals though – there are some amazing superfoods out there which are just as hearty and filling as a bowl of cheesy pasta!

Here are a few to check out next time you arrive home with chattering teeth and an empty belly…

1. Porridge
You can't get a better winter breakfast than a warming bowl of porridge. Oats are full of fibre and plant-based protein so you'll feel full right up to lunchtime. For a brekkie that really packs a punch, add some healthy fats like almond butter and some seeds such as chia, flax or pumpkin seeds. It beats a bowl of Frosties anyway!

2. Chilli
This versatile dish can be made with red meat, veggies or even Quorn. Add heaps of tomatoes and beans for a protein-heavy meal that is delicious and warming. To spice things up, add garlic and chili peppers – these thermogenic foods naturally heat your body and in turn will increase your metabolism. Win-win!

3. Butternut squash
The sweet, nutty taste of this winter squash is perfect for soups or stews. For a healthier alternative to potato, why not try baked butternut squash seasoned with garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper? Delish!

4. Ginger tea
Another natural body warmer, ginger tea with lemon and honey is a great winter beverage. Simply add a few thin slices of fresh ginger, a squeeze of lemon juice and a dash of honey to a cup of hot water and you're good to go. This immune boosting tea is great for easing colds and sore throats, too.

5. Quinoa
You might be used to eating quinoa cold in salads, but this ancient South American grain is an amazing alternative to rice when eaten hot. Add it to stir-fries or soups for a filling protein boost, or make a quinoa porridge using milk and a touch of vanilla. 

6. Apples
Apples are a healthy snack at any time, but they really come into their own when baked or stewed with cinnamon for a simple winter dessert.

Comedian and star of TV show QI Alan Davies has been accused of grabbing a man by the throat on a day out with his children recently.

The incident occurred at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre in London and the man in question, Eamon O’Connor, spoke to The Sun saying: “When we reached the bottom of the stairs he just turned and went for me. He was growling and not making any sense. The only words I heard were ‘I’ve got my kids with me’.”

The incident, which was said to have happened in October, with police confirming that although an altercation had taken place, no arrests were made: “Police were called on 10 October to reports of an altercation between two men at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre. No parties involved required hospital treatment. One man, aged 48, was interviewed under caution on suspicion of common assault. He was not arrested. Following an investigation which included analysis of available CCTV and speaking to witnesses, a decision was taken that there would be no further action.”

It sounds like things were diffused before they could get any worse!

Everyone watching Good Morning Britain earlier today watched with baited breath as it seemed X Factor winner Ben Haenow was about to pop the question to his long-term girlfriend.

His girlfriend, Jessica Jones, no doubt got the shock of her life as it appeared as if Ben was going to pop the big question on live TV. Joking that he is under major pressure to propose, Ben said: “Yeah, my missus has practically cut her finger off and left it round’ the house!”

Susanna Reid then pressed him to get a live proposal, saying: “Now is the perfect opportunity for you the day after – here’s camera four.” Cheeky!

Ben was quick off the mark however, and is clearly not going to be pushed into this huge life decision and simply said to the camera: “Jess, will you…put the coffee on.”

Talk about a letdown! We really though he was going to do it for a split second! Oh well, maybe next time.

With the Christmas party season in full swing, you probably have a few after-work events lined up for this week! It can be hard to strike the right balance between formal office wear and glamorous evening style, but with the right pieces in your wardrobe it's totally doable.

If you're planning on heading straight from the office to the bar, here are a few versatile items that will see you through from dawn 'til dusk…

1. A tux jacket
Throw this on over a plain white tee or a loose cami for instant elegance. Not only can you get away with wearing a slightly less formal top underneath, but a tux-style blazer is sleek enough for evening wear too. We're loving the leather details on this black jacket:

Figure-Fitting Tux Jacket, €39.99, H&M

2. A skater dress
The fit n' flare style of a skater dress is simple enough for the office, but the figure-flattering cut means you'll feel amazing on the dancefloor, too! This black and cream number would look great with or without tights.

Madam Rage Black Leaf Panel Skater Dress, €39, New Look

3. Heeled ankle boots
Whether you wear them with skinnies, tights or slacks, leather ankle boots are perfect for both day and night. If you're on your feet all day, go for a more comfortable chunky heel, like the ones on these gorgeous black leather boots.

Galilahi Ankle Boots, €150, Aldo

4. Killer heels
If it doesn't feel like a night out unless you're wearing killer heels, then why not opt for a slingback pair that are demure enough for the office, too? This coral nubuck pair would brighten up any work wear look.

Premiere Slingback Dorsay Point Heels, €81, Office

5. Tailored slacks
A well-tailored pair of trousers adds instant elegance. Go for a slightly cropped pair like these ones from Zara for a fun, relaxed look that would be perfect with heels or Oxford brogues.

Rib Trousers, €29.95, Zara

6. Printed cigarette pants
Another versatile piece of clothing that doesn't need much dressing up for the evening. Add some red lipstick and you're good to go!

Black Graphic Print Cigarette Pants, €55, River Island

7. A cross-body clutch
A teeny clutch bag is a bit impractical for the office, so go for a slightly larger cross-body version that will still see you through an evening on the tiles. How gorgeous is this red leather one?

Casey Cross Body Bag, €31, Oasis

8. Statement jewellery
Amp up your look with a bejewelled necklace or pair of earrings and you'll be ready for the dancefloor in no time!

Pieces Mella Multicoloured Necklace, €35.72, ASOS

We’re all used to Kim Kardashian’s out-there photos and statements – but THIS?! Really, Kim?

The mum has come under fire on Instagram for cropping baby North out of her shot, making it into a solo selfie.

Many people on Instagram have been left wondering why on earth Kim would crop out her little girl from the shot and instead have half a brick wall in the background – which is a fair point. 

 

It looks as if perhaps Kim wanted to show off her diamond earring in the shot, which are certainly the centre of attention – but we would prefer to see North's little cute face any day! 

NOBODY puts Nori in the corner!

It sounds as if things may not have ended an amicably as everybody previously thought between Strictly Come Dancing star Caroline Flack and Jack Street.

The couple ended their eighteen month relationship recently, but it seems Caroline is taking it hard as she responded to Jack’s tweet encouraging people to vote for her with a rather catty: “@jackb_street easing your guilt??? Fill yourself with glee jack.”

She promptly deleted the tweet and replaced it with a more neutral: “It’s not bad to be sad.” It was previously reported that the couple called an end to their romance as Jack would be in the US where he manages Sam Smith while Caroline would be completing her stint on Strictly.

Either way, it certainly sounds as if Caroline is not happy about something Jack did!

Mel B’s husband Stephen Belafonte has taken to Twitter to deny allegations that he abused his wife. Speculation began last night when, after a stint in hospital, Mel B returned to her judge's seat on The X Factor panel.

Many people on Twitter began to speculate on apparent bruises that Mel B had, as well as the fact that she did not appear to be wearing her wedding ring. Questions also rose due to the fact that Mel’s sister, Danielle, yesterday wrote to Stephen on Twitter, asking: “What have you done?”

Now, the former Spice Girls’ husband has taken to Twitter to defend himself against the allegations, writing: “Idon’t usually respond to Twitter msgs but I will respond to comments of hitting my wife which I think are quite disgusting un true!” [sic]

He also called out those who accused him of such behaviour, saying: “Mel was very ill a bung of doctors helped her get better if fans can’t relax B4 being negative they r not real fans of @OfficialMeB.” [sic]

Mel herself has not responded to any rumours on her social media channels as of yet.

The celebrity circuit is a small community. All things considered, we shouldn’t be surprised to see celebs pictured together more than once, but us mere mortals seem to believe rumours of true friendship just a little too easily. It’s kind of fun to speculate about some of the world’s biggest stars hanging out together, but the reality can’t be that simple – or can it?

Take Cara Delevigne, for example. The supermodel has been snapped with Kendall Jenner a lot of late, but how many BFFs has Cara gone through in the last two years? I mean, who remembers her Rita Ora phase? Oh, and Selena Gomez, Michelle Rodriguez, Georgia May Jagger, and, well, the list goes on.

To be honest, I’d see Cara’s ‘friendships’ as semi-fickle, fleeting social mobility rather than anything too deep and meaningful. These people are socialites. In an era where social media is king – their relationships are currency – let’s all remind ourselves of that.

That’s not to say that no two people in the public eye can be friendly, of course. Did you know that Cameron Diaz and Snoop Dogg went to school together? Oh, and Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire? Also teenage acquaintances. Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox have remained firm friends since Friends wrapped ten years ago – that’s pretty nice to hear, right?

On the other side of the coin, Nicole Richie and Kim Kardashian were friends growing up. Kim was even an assistant to Paris Hilton at one stage – and that relationship seems to have taken a nosedive as Kim’s fame skyrocketed. Katy Perry and Rihanna were bosom buddies until Perry publicly blasted RiRi for giving Chris Brown another chance. Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss seem pretty close these days – apparently, Kloss even has her own room in Taylor’s NYC apartment – but what happened to Taylor’s friendship with Lorde?

It’s hard to know what’s real and what’s for show these days, but one thing is for certain. In celeb-land, where back-stabbing is rife and air miles are frequent, I think it’s fair to say that family trumps all.

The Kardashians are a tight bunch and happy with their lot. ‘Momager’ Kris Jenner definitely knows the value of keeping things in the family! Equally, the Solange lift debacle demonstrated how Beyoncé knows to keep things locked down – it’s very much a family affair chez Carter-Knowles.

Is there such thing as a platonic fauxmance for the purpose of photo ops? I definitely think so – we could all do with being a little more cynical!

Obviously not a couple for a long engagement – Eddie Redmayne is tying the knot with his fiancée in a romantic ceremony in England TODAY!

The actor will wed Hannah Bagshawe in a winter wonderland themed ceremony at Babington House in Somerset later today – how perfect does that sound?

Eddie and Hannah became engaged during the summer and announced the news through an article in The Times that read: “Mr. E.J.D. Redmayne and Miss H.J. Bagshawe. The engagement is announced between Edward, son of Mr and Mrs Richard Redmayne of London, and Hannah, daughter of Mr. Nicholas Bagshawe and Mrs. Caryl Bagshawe, both of London.”

The cute couple made a red carpet appearance at the premiere of Eddie’s new movie, The Theory of Everything where Hannah showed off her stunning engagement ring.

Hannah and Eddie aren’t the only couple who had their wedding at Babington House, as Millie Mackintosh and Professor Green chose the stunning venue for their nuptials back in September 2013.
