His friends are your friends
He genuinely goes out of his way to make sure that you feel a part of his group.

He remembers
It could be something you said in passing or something extremely important but he remembers every detail. From your favourite ice-cream flavour to that all important anniversary.

You can tell him anything
Whether you’re having a crappy day or just need some reassurance, he will know what to do to make you feel better.

Regular contact
With some guys the basic form of communication can often feel like your pulling teeth, but with him, he always knows when to contact you and you don’t even have to ask.

You’re constantly bragging about him
Your poor friends are probably sick of hearing about him at this stage, but you can’t help it, he seems too good to be true.

Makes an effort
Whether he tries to get along with your friends, learns more about your interests or simply wants to ask about your day, he really does make an effort to get to know you.

Ever since Zooey Deschanel first appeared in Elf, our love for her has simply grown. She has a gorgeous, retro style that we all lust over, especially those eyes – her eyes are simply stunning!

While a lot of it is down to genes, there is a way to achieve her look with make-up.

Base
Make sure you moisturise your skin to give it that dewy look we all lust after. An illuminating moisturiser is great if you have one.

Foundation
Zooey never looks caked in make-up, so make sure you don’t over-do it on the foundation. A creamy foundation is a must as it will allow you to accentuate Zooey’s immaculate dewy skin.

Eyebrows
Full, neat brows are a must so fill those brows in.

Eyeshadow
To achieve the New Girl star’s gorgeous eyes, start with a nude colour eyeshadow and apply a little gold for definition.

Eyeliner
Zooey’s eyes are always popping so use your liquid eyeliner across the top and bottom eye rims.

Mascara
Finish your eyes off with lashings of mascara for full lashes.

Blusher
Make those cheeks pop by sweeping rose blusher across them.

Lips
Finish the look off with a coat of clear or subtle pink gloss.

Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange have released a joint statement addressing the now infamous elevator showdown video.

“As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it,” they said in a statement.

“Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family.

“The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. At the end of the day families have problems and we’re no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We’ve put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same,” the statement said.

Meanwhile, the person who sold the footage reportedly got a cool $250,000 pay day from TMZ!

Is this really the end of it now? Only time will tell…

1. Good for your immune system
Apparently, sexually active people take fewer sick days and have higher levels of what defends your body against germs, viruses, and other intruders!

2. Boosts your libido
It’s a Catch 22 kind of situation – having sex apparently improves your libido, which in turn is good for your health.

3. Improves your bladder control
Good sex is like a workout for your pelvic floor muscles. When you have an orgasm, it causes contractions in those muscles, which strengthens them. Good to know for somewhere down the line.

4. Lowers your blood pressure
Research suggests a link between sex and lower blood pressure. But why do we feel so flustered afterwards then?!

5. Counts as exercise
Sex is a really great form of exercise. It won’t replace the treadmill, but it definitely counts for something. Sex uses about five calories per minute, four more calories than watching TV. It gives you a one-two punch: It bumps up your heart rate and uses various muscles.

6. Good for your heart
A good sex life is good for your heart. Besides being a great way to raise your heart rate, sex helps keep your estrogen and testosterone levels in balance. When either one of those is low you begin to get lots of problems, like osteoporosis and even heart disease.

7. Lessens pain
Before you reach for an aspirin, try for an orgasm instead.  Studies have shown that orgasms can block pain. It releases a feel-good hormone that helps raise your pain threshold.

8. Reduces risk of cancer
In men that is. Studies have claimed that men who ejaculated frequently (at least 21 times a month) were less likely to get prostate cancer.

9. Improves sleep
You may nod off more quickly after sex, and for good reason. After orgasm, the hormone prolactin is released, which is responsible for the feelings of relaxation and sleepiness. Sound familiar?

10. Eases stress
Being close to your partner can soothe stress and anxiety. Touching and hugging can release your body’s natural feel-good hormone and a brain chemical that revs up your brain’s pleasure and reward system.

You would think after everything that has occurred on Instagram for James Franco, he would stay away from the social media site.

But no, the actor has decided to let off some steam surrounding that controversial sequel of Spring Breakers.

James made it perfectly clear that he did approve of the new film and what was being done to Harmony’s creation.

“STATEMENT ABOUT SPRING BREAKERS 2: This is not being done with Harmony Korine or my consent. The original was wholly Harmony’s creation and these producers are capitalizing on that innovative film to make money on a weak sequel. I want everyone to know that whoever is involved in the sequel is jumping on board a poison ship. It will be a terrible film, with a horrible reason d’être: to make money off someone else’s creativity. Can you imagine someone making the sequel to Taxi Driver without Scorcese and DeNiro’s consents? Insanity! I’m speaking up for Harmony and his original vision and for any creative person who cares about preserving artistic integrity.”

While it’s admirable that James is sticking up for Harmony, as the film’s sequel is being done without her consent.

We think that maybe James should calm it down on Instagram for a little while anyways, especially his questionable selfies.

If the latest rumours are to be believed, Kim and Kanye won’t be getting married in Paris this month, but will be tying the knot in Italy instead.

A source has come out and said that Kanye West’s and Kim Kardashian’s wedding ceremony will be taking place on May 24th in Florence.

“Kardashian and West’s guests will first attend a pre-wedding dinner in Paris and then the couple will fly their guests in private planes to Florence for the actual wedding ceremony.”

Apparently, grey and gold wedding invitations were sent out to guests last April. The invitations asked guests to wear cocktail attire for a dinner in Paris on May 23rd but of course, no location was given for the wedding ceremony the following day.

There could be some truth to this rumour though, as Florence is a favourite spot for both Kim and Kanye as they holidayed there together in 2012.

But other sources have said that no one really knows what’s happening on Kim and Kanye’s big day, as the couple have revealed very little to their guests.

“Kim and Kanye have told all guests different info, No one knows all of the details.”

One thing is for sure, Kimye loves to keep us guessing.

We will probably never know what occurred in that elevator, but what we do know, is Solange is sticking by her big sis.

Rumours began circling that Solange was mad at Beyonce, after she mysteriously removed nearly all traces of her big sister, from her Instagram account.

Beyonce then began to raise further eyebrows, when she added numerous images of her and Solange to her own Instagram account, the following day.

But Solange has made it clear through Instagram anyways, that she is sticking by her sis. The singer posted an adorable Throwback Thursday picture of her and Beyonce this afternoon. Awww!

If there is anything to note from these cryptic Instagram pictures, there have been none of Beyonce’s hubby, Jay-Z. Hmmm, interesting.

David and Victoria Beckham have been married for over ten years, but it’s only recently that the footballer decided to reveal what lengths he went to, to win over his wife.

Beckham said that he tried to impress Victoria on their first trip away together, by wearing some tight swimming trunks. Ouch!

“When I first started going out with Victoria and we went away for the first time I remember I took a pair of small, tight, dark blue Gucci trunks with me – I was obviously trying to impress her. They were really small, but they worked!”

Well, with a sight like that, we don’t blame Victoria for falling so fast for her hubby.
