Uh oh, apparently one of Kelly Rowland’s 30 guests isn’t much of a friend after all!

Photos of her wedding to Tim Witherspoon have appeared online and judging by their quality – it’s no official release!

In an unusual twist, all of the guests wore white.

Kelly’s cousins, Beyoncé, Solange and their mother, Tina Knowles, were all in attendance for the ceremony which took place in Costa Rica.

In this sweet photo it looks as if Kelly is overcome with emotion as she says “I do” to her love.

Everyone has felt anxious at some point or another; however, for many people anxiety can become so overwhelming that it can interfere in daily life.

Anxiety is a rising mental health condition, but, for those who don’t suffer from it, it can be hard to relate to what the sufferer is feeling.

Unfortunately a lack of knowledge can manifest itself into insensitive comments and advice.

Ahead of the UK’s Mental Health Awareness Week, the Priory Group conducted a poll asking anxiety sufferers to share the worst thing that someone has said to them about their illness.

Shockingly, the results show that not only is there a lack of knowledge surrounding the condition, there is still a stigma when it comes to mental health.

Dr. Paul McLean consultant psychiatrist at Priory Hospital Hayes Grove says: “Despite there being as many as one in four sufferers of anxiety there is still a stigma attached to mental health. We need to work on educating people to help them understand that anxiety is a normal part of human experience and that it is nothing to be ashamed of.”

The project shows people standing with placards highlighting the negative comments they have received concerning their illness.

Looking for the perfect concealer? Well, look no further as Max Factor have the answer!

A lot of ladies worry that their flaws are the first things people notice on their face and opt for a concealer that will hide any imperfections.

Unfortunately, not all concealers work in the same way and choosing the wrong once can actually make things worse.

Thankfully, Max Factor has released their Colour Corrector CC Sticks that work with varying types of imperfections and skin tones.

With five sticks all working in different ways, there is sure to be one suitable for your skin tone. The Reducer is a green stick that neutralises redness while the Revitaliser in purple counteracts sallow and yellow areas, helping to banish dullness. It is perfect for mums who have yellow undertones.

However, for those with lilac, purple or blue undertones, the Brightener in yellow helps to neutralise under-eye circles. The Balancer is pink and helps to even out dark spots in lighter skin tones while the illuminator works as a highlighter and softly reflects light and illuminates the face.

Each stick helps to eliminate and disguise so you can create a perfect, professional and flawless base

Men constantly complain about how complicated women are. The fact of the matter is, we’re really not. In fact, most of the time we’re fairly easy to decode, understand and please, you’re probably just not totally sure what’s going on in our minds. So, to help you, here is a list of things we say that are definitely lies.

1. “I’m Fine”

2. “No Presents Please… It’s grand”

tumblr_mxz1k1ezUJ1stgrfzo1_400For the love of humanity, get the girl a present!

3. Oh these legs, nah they’re just naturally this smooth and shiny.”

tumblr_mo9smavzxw1rijmvyo1_500 LIES, IT’S ALL LIES. We did not just wake up with legs that could feature on a Gillette Venus ad. It’s tough maintenance, sometimes painful, always annoying.

4. “I’ve absolutely no make up on”

tumblr_n46x9o6Vzt1qac1soo2_500If we didn’t, you would know.

5. “No, I Don’t Creep On Other Men..ever”

tumblr_n48wzga8cD1t70ckxo9_r1_250Just like you don’t creep on any other women..oh wait.

6. “I’m not drunk…”

tumblr_mfvexeka8W1ra8b8oo1_500Sometimes I LIKE sleeping on the bathroom floor, gotta problem with that?

7. “Penneys, €5”

tumblr_m9894iiQbY1rxdvy7o1_400This one might be true, or it could have been 120 euro in Topshop.

8. “I’m not into gossip”

tumblr_n14rkuvHWM1qk08n1o1_500…But did you HEAR about Mary?!

9. “My dad really likes you”

tumblr_n2cb69cjPo1tqs1heo1_500Nope.

10. “I’m OK”

Lily Allen has revealed the very understandable reason she turned down a role in HBO’s hit show, Game of Thrones.

The singer was offered the role of Yara Greyjoy, sister of Theon Greyjoy.

Theon is played by Alfie Allen, Lily’s little brother, who she wrote the song Alfie about.

You may wonder why Lily would turn down the role of playing the on screen sister to her real life brother?

Well, because of the incest. Er, what?!

In a scene between Yara and Theon, Theon has a somewhat intimate moment with his sister.

Lily said: “I felt uncomfortable because I would have had to go on a horse and he would have touched me up and shit. Once they told me what was entailed, I said no thanks.”

We don’t blame you , Lily.

We might ‘like’ it, but we’re secretly fuming on the inside!

1. A snap of you…in a bikini…on a beach…doing yoga. OK, so you’ve spent months trying to perfect your downward facing dog and yes, you look amazing for it, but PURRRLEASE don’t rub it in our faces. It’s not very Zen.

2. Pictures of an À la carte dish your Ryan Gosling lookalike boyfriend has just prepared for you. We’re eating frozen pizza tonight…Alone!

3. A photograph of the cleansing green juice you have just made and are about to drink. We’ll fully support yet another one of your juice detox diets, but please don’t make us feel bad about heating up last night’s leftover kebab for dinner.

4. A gym selfie. Again, see above. We’ll get around to our own gym membership when we’re good and ready, OK?!

5. Valentines’ Day cards/presents/cuddly toys/romantic meals/hotel breaks. Please have a heart and think of all the single ladies out there. Surely you were single once. No? Never?? Well, bully for you! Pass the cookie dough please.

6. Anything on a private jet.

7. Same goes for VIP entry to the hottest club in town, while we’re trying to sneak in through the toilet window.

8. A photo of your manicured feet on an exotic beach captioned ‘Paradise’. It’s lashing rain back home, and all we can afford this year is a weekend stay in our parent’s caravan…in the back garden.

9. A picture of your new designer handbag. You didn’t get that in Penneys did you?

10. Your fabulous new hairdo by a top stylist when we struggled to get a comb through our tangled mane this morning. The Sinead O’Connor look is back in again…isn’t it?!

Rihanna has been accused of cyberbullying one of her biggest fans after she mocked them over Twitter recently.

16 year-old Alexis Carter uploaded a photo of herself in an outfit clearly inspired by Rihanna to attend her prom.

However, the teenager was soon left with a bad taste in her mouth after the whole internet turned on her and mocked her.

But it wasn’t until her idol, Rihanna, joined in that Alexis really got upset: “I was very offended. Why throw shade on it when you had on the exact same thing? The pose was different but the outfit wasn’t … She doesn’t love her fans like she says she does.”

Rihanna’s tweet showed a photo of herself wearing the outfit, alongside Alexis’ outfit with a sad face, as well as another tweet with Alexis’ photo beside a Wu-Tang clan logo.

The singer also joined in and used the hashtag that was created because of the girl’s outfit, #PromBat.

Hmm, she may want to get that mean streak off the internet.

It really hasn’t been a great week for Riri as it was also revealed that her and Drake have split up following an explosive fight between the two.

Nicole Kidman has admitted she is “sad” that her latest movie Grace of Monaco has been snubbed by the Monaco royals.

The movie officially opened the 2014 Cannes Film Festival last night, and as well as being slaughtered in reviews, the Grace Kelly biopic has also been publicly slammed as “a farce” by the Monaco royal family.

Princess Stephanie, Princess Caroline and Prince Albert have put out a statement distancing themselves from the movie, which sees Nicole Kidman portray Princess Grace while Tim Roth plays Prince Rainier.

Nicole spoke of her sadness that the movie hadn’t received the royal family’s support.

“It’s their mother and father. And I understand it’s protection of their mother and father,” said the actress. “Obviously I feel sad”.

The family’s statement on the Olivier Dahan-directed film was based on reading the script and seeing the trailer but Nicole is still hopeful one day they will watch the finished movie.

“Ultimately if they ever did see (the movie), I think they would see there was an enormous amount of affection for both of their parents and for the love story of their parents,” said the actress.

“The film has no malice toward the family, particularly towards Grace or Rainier,” she explained. “It’s fictionalized. It’s not a biopic. It’s the essence of truth. But you take dramatic license at times.”

The movie will hit Irish screens on June 6th.

I’m a big fan of the natural daytime look, but as it’s coming into summer (and festival season is just around the corner!) it’s time to put the neutrals on hold and embrace colour and chaos.

I’ve been looking for the perfect summer eye shadow palette for a while and it’s really no surprise that I found it when I went for a make-up consultation at the Urban Decay counter in Debenhams on Dublin’s Henry Street.

Urban Decay is famous for its eye shadows; in fact, I doubt there’s a make-up lover out there who doesn’t own one of their incredible Naked palettes.

Urban Decay’s Electric palette may seem a little intimidating at first, but trust me, as soon as you see and feel how these shadows look on the skin, you’ll fall as head over heels as I did.

There are 10 shades, 2 previously released and 8 brand new, all using their velvety smooth, highly pigmented formula.

My lovely consultant Roisin walked me through the palette and demonstrated just how versatile these shades are and how even the smallest amount can make a big statement. Adding a pop of purple (Urban) or blue (Chaos) along a cat-eye flick or adding a splash of colour to the inner corner can give you the most gorgeous look!

This really is a must-have for summer, as is UO’s new line of beautiful skin products, Naked Skin Liquid Makeup, which are available in a fantastic range of shades and so lightweight it feels like you’ve nothing on your skin. A combination of these products and you’ll be set for summer and beyond. You can see how convincing my consultant was, right?

Oh and it’s not just me who gets to be pampered – the Urban Decay team at Debenhams Henry Street is offering FREE mini- makeovers exclusively to SHEmazing readers! Just call  to book your appointment and decide which area you want to focus on ( eyes or complexion) – simple!
