This certainly gave us a giggle in the SHEmazing office today! Nik of the internet comedy group The Kloons recorded his elderly mother and aunt having a conversation, and later lip-synced it for this hilarious little video. We would seriously love to try this with some of our friends and relatives!

Jarrod Allen has taken Tinder by storm by recreating photos posted by his female counterparts – and the results are pretty funny (though we wouldn’t like to have someone poke fun at our photos like that!).

Jarrod’s bit of fun shows how women can often objectify themselves at times, though we've seen our fair share of 'look at my muscles' photos from guys on Tinder – so it's not JUST women who post ridiculous photos on Tinder, thank you very much!

Also, is it wrong that we kind of fancy him now, even with his Cara Delevingne brows?

Okay so, break-ups are never nice, or easy, but we can’t help but be slightly excited that Chace Crawford is officially available again!

The Gossip Girl hottie had been going out with Rachelle Goulding since last year. When asked if he was still dating Rachelle during an interview on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, Chace replied: “Ah, no. I’m not. I’m not. It’s totally good … We had fun.”

Unfortunately, it sounds as if the actor is too busy for any relationship at the moment, saying: “I’m travelling too much right now. I am just trying to move in [to LA] right now, and I have a couple of independent films right now.”

We’ll take our chances.

We all enjoy fast food every now and then.

There is nothing quite like a delicious, tasty, fat-filled burger and fries after a night out or a messy, extra large pizza while we’re cuddling with our other half on the sofa. Mmm, we’re feeling a tad peckish now…

But do you know what you’re actually eating? If not, you definitely will after watching this video!

It has been reported that Rachel McAdams is “devastated” by the news of Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes’ baby news.

OK magazine have said that a source close to the actress reported: [Rachel]’s devastated.”

Rachel and Ryan dated from 2005 until 2007 with a brief reconciliation in 2008 before ending things for good.

It has also been said that the reason the couple broke up was due to Rachel not being ready to have children.

Rachel is now said to be dating Jake Gyllenhaal, so we’re sure he’ll comfort her just fine…

It's never easy when an ex moves on once and for all, but we're sure Rachel is happy for Ryan and Eva.

If you have a pet, or are planning on getting a pet, there are a few things you might want to think about. It’s especially important to make sure that your home a safe place for them – and also so that they don’t destroy everything within reach. Here are five tips on pet proofing your home:

Wooden floors
If you have a carpet, and plan on letting your dog or cat inside – good luck. You’re lovely rug will soon become a mass of animal hair, bits of food, and quite possibly urine. If you can afford it, get a wooden or lino floor. If not, invest in some mats you don’t care about – they may not be pretty, but at least you can take them up when people visit and still have a clean carpet underneath.

Scratching post
Cats need to sharpen their claws, and if they’re mostly inside they’re going to do it on your sofa, if you don’t give them an alternative. A scratching post is definitely worth it.

Hide the valuables
Dogs are known to eat things they really shouldn’t eat, and cats jump all over everything and knock things down. If you have things that are really precious, hide them. Hide them FAR away.

Child proof
They may not have opposable thumps, but this doesn’t always stop pets from breaking into presses and drawers. It’s a good idea to lock any presses that have poisonous substances, just incase.

Safety checks
Cats hang out in the weirdest places – always keep your washing machine closed, and check he’s not taking a nap in there before turning it on. Shut the door behind the dog when the pizza delivery guy comes, so he doesn’t bolt out and down the road. Don’t leave any low hanging cords (such as venetian blind cords) hanging down for your pet to get caught up in either. These kind of safety checks will make sure you have your new best friend around for many years to come.

Filmmaker Jim Sheridan is in talks with HBO bosses about the prospect of turning his film In America, which deals with the issue of illegal immigration in the States, into a TV series.

He revealed: "It could be HBO, but I don't want to say for definite before we sign the deal.

"I want to tell the story of illegal aliens; the people on the edges of American society. It will focus on the Irish community in the States."

Sheridan believes that TV shows give directors greater scope for creativity than feature films, so it’s no wonder he is eager to get the project going. We hope it goes ahead!

Colette Fitzpatrick is definitely making waves in the style world, thanks to her hit fashion blog; Wide-Eyed and Blind.

Colette has been blogging for two years now, and has already developed a huge following of Irish fashion lovers.

Wide-Eyed and Blind has been already shortlisted for the 2013 Ireland Blog Awards and has even been approved by the e-tail PR Bloggers Network.

Colette mostly blogs about her own personal style choices, and regularly features snaps of herself posing in some of her favourite looks, as well as sharing photos of stylish items that she would like to purchase in the future.

SHEmazing! caught up with Colette, who let us in on her own fashion must-haves:

What item do you think every girl should have in her closet?
The perfect trouser. Whether you go for navy, black, white or otherwise. I think every girl should have a pair of trousers that can be dressed up and dressed down, that can be business or casual or party. I don’t wear dresses very often anymore so trousers are even more important. And this is a tricky purchase but if you get the right fit and style for you, it will be worth any and all struggles to find them!

What’s the most expensive item of clothing you’ve bought?
I personally don’t ever spend a lot on clothes. That’s not to say that I’m not a label fiend but I’m totally a bargain queen. However, my Mulberry Alexa that my parents got me for Christmas a few years back is probably among the most expensive items I own.

What’s your best bargain?
My best bargain, hands down, is my Stellas. I’ve gotten some amazingly cheap designer or hand-made pieces in my life so far but the day I spotted a pair of Stella McCartney shoes in my size and favourite colour for a tenner in TK Maxx…it was kind of like the world stopped for a second.

What would you say is your favourite accessory? 
Picking a favourite accessory is tough because I tend to keep things pretty pared back and I live by Chanel’s rule of taking one thing off as you head out the door. And much as I love beautiful shoes, I tend to stare at them on my shelf and wear runners…I just remembered; it’s hats! I started getting into them last year and I just love rocking a good hat. The art of hat-wearing has kind of been lost by and large and I think that’s sad so I’ve been trying them out with outfits more and more. Next, I plan to bring back the fan. Although, if Karl can’t do it…

If you could only shop in one store for the rest of your life, which would it be?
This one is really tricky. I LOVE Topshop but picking one shop forever is a serious commitment. I would easily live in Alexander Wang, Jil Sander or Isabel Marant for the rest of my life. But if I had my own label, that’d be my choice because I have some damn good ideas I’m just itching to bring to life.
