Kelly Osbourne and her mum Sharon Osbourne are collaborating with MAC cosmetics to create their very own range and we are very excited! The mother-daughter duo will be unveiling their 26-piece range in the UK this week and we can’t wait to see it.
The collection is based on Kelly’s love of vibrant colours, although the 29-year-old admits that they were slightly tweaked “so they’re a bit more for every woman”.
The range features mineralized make-up, lip and eye pencils, blushes and bronzers.
This is a dream come true for Kelly, especially as they are the first mother-daughter duo to design their own collection for MAC.
The Fashion Police host said: “Ever since I can remember, MAC has been my favourite make-up, not only for their wide range of colours but their ingenuity and forward thinking and how they are able to change public perception through the use of make-up.”
The range launches on Tuesday, 10th June and we can’t wait!
Miss USA contestant, Valerie Gatto, is using her own tragic experience to raise awareness of sexual assault and rape.
The brave beauty pageant contestant told the story of how her mother was raped at knifepoint, aged 19: “Being a child of rape, not knowing who my father is, not knowing if he’s ever been found, most people would think it’s such a negative situation … I believe God put me here for a reason: to inspire people, to encourage them, to give them a hope that everything is possible and you can’t let your circumstances define your life.”
Valerie explained that she first found out about what had happened to her mum when she was in thirds grade and began to ask questions about her dad, she says her mum responded by saying: “Something bad happened to me. A very bad man hurt me but God gave me you.”
Miss Pennsylvania revealed her mum’s tragic story saying that she was leaving work when she was attacked at knifepoint and raped behind a building, until a car shone its lights and scared the attacker away.
Ms Gatto is now using her experience to raise awareness of sexual assault and rape, in a bid to protect potential victims, telling NBC’s Today, she said: “I hope to show others how to be proactive, what to do, to be present, to be aware of your surroundings, little things like that … I’m educating women about a topic that’s so serious, but it’s so awesome to see their responses. They say it changes their life.”
The Liquor Rooms on Dublin’s Wellington Quay have been nominated in this year’s Best New International Cocktail Bar category for the Tales of the Cocktail 2014 Spirited Awards.
The Liquor Rooms are the first Republic of Ireland cocktail bar to ever receive a nomination in the awards, so it’s a pretty big deal! Especially since these awards were set up originally to recognise the best bars, bartenders and spirits professionals from all across the globe.
General Manager Kevin Hurley said, “We are honoured to be the first bar from the Republic of Ireland to be shortlisted for an award at Tales of the Cocktail. This is the highest possible honour a cocktail bar can receive and to be mentioned in the company of the best bars in the world is truly humbling. I am so proud of all our staff and this is fantastic recognition for all the hard work we have put in on both sides of the bar since opening last August.”
Alan Kavanagh, of the Tales of the Cocktail International Judging Committee praised Ireland for its growing cocktail scene:
“The Irish cocktail scene has grown steadily for the past 5-6 years, driven by some of the most enthusiastic and creative bartenders within the worldwide hospitality industry. This exciting achievement is a credit to Kevin, Alan and all The Liquor Rooms staff on their commitment to deliver not only fantastic cocktails, but hospitality and service second to none.”
The awards will be announced on July 19 during Tales of the Cocktail, the cocktail festival held July 16-20 in New Orleans. Best of luck guys!
Every young Irish person lived through these crazes during the ’90s – from Pokemon to Bebo, we loved them all!
1. Pokemon Pokemon was probably the biggest craze of the ’90s; from video games to collecting cards, you had to catch them all! Sorry…
2. Yu-Gi-Oh! Slightly less popular (or cool) as Pokemon, nonetheless this craze had a massive following back in the ’90s and early ’00s.
3. Polly Pocket Every girl had a Polly Pocket – and all the cool girls had LOADS of Polly Pockets. Looking back, those small parts cannot be good for kids to play with.
4. Tamagotchi These were supposed to be like having a pet without actually having a pet. When they got abandoned after a week, we finally realised why we weren’t allowed to get a dog after all.
5. Light-Up runners These made you run faster. Fact. Not good to wear during Hide n’ Seek.
6. Scooters/Skateboards/Rollerblades These are all still pretty cool, but our tricks have gotten a little rusty.
7. Learning to draw this And it was always way cooler of your name began with an ‘S’!
8. Paper fortune tellers
It didn’t matter how many of these were confiscated, you can always make more.
9.Polyphonic Ringtone When you give out about teenagers blasting their annoying music over their phones, remember that you used to be one of them. Except you were ten times more annoying because it was ringtones you were blasting!
10. Crazy Frog
Historically the most annoying sound on the planet.
11. Snake This amazing game is still so addictive and fun if you can find an old enough Nokia to play the original on!
12. Scoubidou bracelets They look so intricate but once you get the hang of it you give one to everyone you know. Including you nan.
13. Charity Wristbands Not just for a good cause, if you had these, you were the coolest kid around.
14. MSN Aww, staying up till midnight chatting over messenger to ‘that boy’ – we really hope those convos have been deleted forever.
Bebo Bebo stunnahhs 2k07 4eva oh yeah!

We all got a little bit crazy during some of these fads. The only hope can be that you didn’t lose too many friends over any of them, and that scare from the fight you had with your best friend over a Charizard Pokemon card isn’t that noticeable anymore.
Jennifer Lopez has split with Casper Smart after more than two years together. Casper has recently been accused of sending explicit messages to two transexual models online. Jenny from the Block is clearly not impressed as she leaves Casper with nothing more than a few choice gifts. Will he be happy?
It has been reported that singer, Sia, has gotten engaged!
Sia’s new fiancé, Erik Anders Lang, joined her on the red carpet where her beautiful ring was on display.
However, it has now been rumoured that the pair may actually be married already!
As Perez pointed out, it looks as if there are not one but TWO rings on Sia’s ring finger, while it has also been said that her husband was wearing a plain gold band too.
Sia’s mum confirmed the engagement recently but now it looks as if the happy couple have taken their relationship a step further!
They always look so blissful in the brochure, but don’t be fooled – going on a holiday with your boyfriend isn’t all romantic sunsets and candle lit dinners in a cute little restaurant by the sea.
We’re talking sunburn, excessive sweating, perhaps a dose of diarrohea after drinking the tap water – not exactly the stuff of romantic novels.
However, if you’re well prepared, a couple’s holiday can be everything you dreamed of – here are some tips for when you decide to book your romantic week away!
Lower your expectations You’ll probably still have the odd squabble on your holiday, but that’s ok. Thinking everything is going to be rosy for seven days straight is only setting yourself up for disappointment, so be prepared!
Remember: It’s not a girl’s holiday!
When choosing your destination, it’s good to remember that while you had the BEST TIME EVER in Ibiza three years ago, your couple’s holiday is an entirely different creature. Go somewhere appropriate that you’ll both enjoy.
Don’t compare yourselves to other couples
So you’ve got nothing to say to each other and the couple at the next table can’t stop talking? Relax and enjoy the comfortable silence.
Compromise
While you might be happy to lounge the week away, your other half might prefer to do something active. Make compromises for each other.
Spend some time apart
There’s nothing worse than dragging around a grumpy boyfriend when you’re doing your holiday shopping – so leave him to do whatever he wants to do himself while you take some me time. Works a charm!
It looks as if things may be getting back on track for Gwyneth Paltrow and her husband, Chris Martin.
In a photo obtained from an Instagram user, i687677, by Radar, the estranged couple can be seen having a close lunch together.
The couple announced their separation (or conscious uncoupling) back in March, but are said to have remained on good terms.
Gwyneth and Chris have two children together, Apple and Moses.
While the photos may not prove that the couple have decided to reunite, it is good to see them enjoying each other’s company despite their problems. Hopefully, it will lead to more in time!
We really want to see these two back together! Do you?
Hmm, it doesn’t look like Scarlett Johansson is a big fan of Taylor Swift!
Scarlett was speaking about the new genre of fans she has gained recently due to roles in movies such as The Avengers: “It’s little girls … it’s funny because they probably can’t see all the movies I have done.”
However, it would appear the actress didn’t know how to feel when she was compared to Taylor Swift, saying: “The other day I was in the airport and somebody said to me, ‘Oh my daughter is your biggest fan and she loves your work so much. Are you Taylor Swift?’ I was like, ‘Wow that radiant youth cream works.’ She’s also like six foot tall or something. I went to my friend, ‘How should I feel about this? Appalled? Thrilled? Or not think about it too much?'”
Well, we certainly wouldn’t complain if somebody mistook us for the lovely Taylor, that’s for sure!
Rosanna Davison wed her handsome beau, Wesley Quirke on June 1st at the luxurious Agroturismo Atzaró Hotel and Spa in Ibiza and she did a good job at keeping it all very quiet. However, the time has finally come for the reveal of her gorgeous wedding dress!
In an exclusive interview with Hello! Magazine, the model talked about her big day:
“There’s something very liberating about being away from home with people who mean so much to you. Because you’re there for a few days, everyone gets to know one another so well so it all feels very natural and laid back.”
Rosanna is picture perfect in her dress, and Wesley looks absolutely smitten with his new wife – we wish them all the best in their shared future!
