We LOVE Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman!

Fans were given a glimpse of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman at Comic Con this weekend. The actress is a far cry from the typical red and blue Wonder Woman we all know though – she looks MUCH tougher, and we love it!

Wonder Woman is a crucial character in the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice film, and she’ll be getting her own film soon too, so it’s about time she got a make-over!

We can help but think they took some inspiration from Xena: Warrior Princess though?!

Top make-up tips we swear by

Jul 28, 2014

by Amber Saunders

When it comes to beauty, there are a few things that you need to remember to do in order to make your make-up go on quicker, last longer and look flawless.

Make sure you know these five make-up tips before you put any cosmetics near your face:

Eyeshadow before foundation
Put your eyeshadow on before your foundation. Powder always falls onto your face but this way you can easily wipe it away without ruining your foundation.

Concealer before foundation
Dab your concealer on areas that need it the most and then put your foundation on. Concealer costs more than foundation so use more concealer and less foundation.

Curl your eyelashes
Before you put on your mascara, make sure you curl your lashes. This way you are sure to have the ultimate curl without using five or six layers of mascara!

Always moisturise
Whether you have oily or dry skin you need to moisturise it. Dab a little on your face before you put on your foundation but make sure it is rubbed in first.

Never forget your blusher
When we say don’t forget your blusher we don’t mean you need to go out looking like a doll. A little swept across your cheeks will bring your whole look together.

Brody Jenner has revealed in the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, that his brother Brandon and his step-sister Kim Kardashian, once shared a kiss.

Brody revealed the secret during a family vacation in Thailand, where Kim’s mum was teasing Brody for having a crush on Kim.

The 30-year-old walked in on Kim during a racey photo-shoot, where he joked about being turned on after the incident.

"I feel like Brody is crushing on Kim. I think you've had a crush since you were 7 years old."

Brody denied ever having feelings for Kim and then revealed that it was in fact Brandon and Kim who once kissed each other, when they were much younger.

"That was him and Kim! You're forgetting that. They kissed back in the day."

Brandon then tried to change the subject but to no avail.

Brody continued to tease his brother about it: "It's on you now! And he knows it's true."

Hmmm, we wonder what Kim has to say about this kiss story.

1D star receives death threats after posting this tweet!

One Direction singer, Zayn Malik, has received death threats after posting the “#FreePalestine” hashtag on his Twitter page.

Zayn’s tweet was in reference to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, between Palestine and Israel.

The message which has been retweeted over 140,000 times has also sparked outrage among some Twitter users.

Shortly after Malik sent the message, users soon replied with abusive tweets directed at the singer, urging the signer “to kill himself” to “Let Me Kill you”.

But despite the death threats, Zayn has not taken down the tweet 13 hours after posting it, but hasn’t commented on the matter either.

This isn’t the first time a singer has gotten involved in sharing their opinions on the Middle Eastern conflict. Two weeks ago RiRi tweeted the same hashtag “by accident” but soon took it down, blaming a social media glitch for the incident.

What will Michelle think of Mark’s latest move?!

It’s been rumoured that Mark Wright is going to be joining the Strictly Come Dancing line-up this year – but what will Michelle make of him getting super close to his undoubtedly beautiful dance partner?!

Apparently Strictly bosses were hoping to get both Michelle and Mark on the show, as “having a couple going head-to-head would have made great TV”, but they are said to be happy to have Mark on the line-up at least.

Well, at least Michelle won’t have him stepping all over her feet at their wedding ceremony – and we’re sure Mark won’t pull a Samia Ghadie and break it off with Michelle before growing suspiciously close to his dance partner, he knows a good thing when he’s got it – we hope!

Cara and Cecil’s Topshop debut

With her funky style and crazy, awesome personality it is not surprising that Cara Delevingne is the campaign girl for Topshop’s AW14 collection.

In fact, this is the first time someone has starred in a campaign for the popular high street fashion label solo.

Instagram followers of the model would have been introduced to Cecil, her rabbit, but this video was actually the first time the 21-year-old met the bunny who was originally meant to be a prop.

Talking about Cara, Topshop’s creative director Kate Phelan said: “Cara is a true Topshop girl. Her style is confident and playful and she can be sophisticated and chic as easily as she can be cool and casual.”

“Putting her spin on everything she makes the Topshop collection her own. Her uninhibited natural energy is intoxicating, she is free spirited and fun.”

Cara originally worked with Topshop when she appeared in a video alongside Kate Moss, who has her own fashion collection for the brand – hmmm, maybe Cara will get her very own line. We’d definitely be queuing up for that.
