Amanda Seyfried doesn’t think her relationship with Dominic Cooper could have lasted.

The Mamma Mia! co-stars split in 2010 after around two years of dating, but the 28-year-old actress thinks they were just too different to stay together for long.

”It would never have worked long-term. I’m too uptight for him. Or he’s too relaxed for me,” she said. ”He’s been with the same girl for ages. I hope they’re happy.”

The star of the upcoming Peter Pan movie is now loved up with actor Justin Long, so it seems it all worked out for the best!

The actress also opened up about the terrifying effect anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) had on her when she was younger, saying there were times she thought she was ”crazy”.

She said: ”I feel terrible for the younger me, because I thought I was crazy. Where was the fear coming from? It doesn’t make any sense. ‘I had my anxiety and my OCD – a lot of kids have it. You’re afraid of it; you’re afraid of your brain.”

One Direction’s security team are planning on hiring lookalikes of the band members!

Yes, you heard that right!

The Little Things singers are being followed by screaming fans everywhere they go on their epic Where We Are world tour, so their team want to hire decoys.

The boys’ bodyguards think having 1D lookalikes on hand would be great for distracting the fans, and think it’s the only way to keep the band safe and sound.

While the band already have a crazy amount of security around them but it seems things are getting out of hand as it was revealed yesterday that the lads had to flee from their hotel in Peru after fans tried to storm the building.

The boys are apparently really nervous about going out and only feel safe in their private jet.

There has been talk of lookalike auditions hitting towns around the UK and Ireland – which we might just pop by to… Eek!

You’ve been together for quite a while now and here are the sure signs that the pair of you have officially entered the relationship comfort zone.

He’s there for you
You’ve run out of tampons and it’s no big deal to ask him to pop into the shop and grab a box. Now, that’s what we call a real man.

You can be open with him
You can have honest conversations with him about anything and never need to worry it will end in a relationship breakdown.

Your friends are his friends
The awkward scenarios between your boyfriend and your friends are finally gone. In fact, your girlfriends already consider him a part of the gang.

Don’t have to dress up
You can go around make-up free and in your tracksuit bottoms and he would still find you as attractive as ever.

Your part of his family
It’s gotten to the stage where his parents know it’s better to contact you about their son than actually attempt to get in touch with him themselves.

Lily Allen’s comeback album seems to be ruffling a lot of feathers in the celebrity world!

Now it seems one star mentioned – model Jourdan Dunn – was far from impressed to hear her name mentioned in Sheezus album track Insincerely You.

The song includes the lyrics, “I don’t give a f**k about Delevigne. Or that Rita girl. About Jourdan Dunn.

‘I don’t wanna know about your perfect life. Your perfect wife and it makes me sick. I don’t give a f**k about your Instagram. About your lovely house or your ugly kids.”

Jourdan, who has a four-year-old son Riley, was quick to ask who the ‘ugly kids’ Lily was referring to were.

She tweeted last night,  “Errm @lilyallen who’s ‘ugly kids’ was you talking about in this song??”

The singer, who was attending a Chanel event in London around the same time, replied, “@missjourdandunn it’s a reference to something another artist said about my children on Twitter. Also, only mentioned you cause your name rhymes with ‘one’. Sorry.”

The model then replied, “@lilyallen Ohhh because my name rhymes with ‘One’!!!!! Look at you, you lil lyrical genius!!”

It is believed the lyrics regarding ‘ugly kids’ referred to rapper Azealia Banks, who tweeted Lily last summer, “Your kids are ugly.”

Lily hit back at the model’s mocking by saying, “People are so gagging for beef , seriously get out more.”

Some of Lily’s tweets have since been deleted, although Jourdan’s part in the chat is still online.

Lily signed off, “I’m sick of explaining my lyrics to people, they’re pop songs, no more, no less. If you don’t get it or like it, look the other way. Simples.”

Not so “simples” it seems Lily!

There is nothing like a long plane journey to make you really feel like you’ve been through the mill. It is common to step off the plane with dry skin, washed out complexion and greasy, flat hair.

Stick to these five steps and you’ll be as picture perfect as Kate Middleton stepping onto the tarmac.

Keep your hair up
Pop your hair into a high bun to stop it getting knotty and greasy. Keep it loose so all you need to do before landing is untie it for an on-rend tousled look!

Don’t wear make-up
Don’t put make-up on before getting onto the plane, it’ll probably be really early and, sure, who’ll see you anyway.

Wash your face
Bring some cotton wipes and a bottle of water onto the flight. Gently dab the water onto the tissue and wash your face – you can do this in your seat.

Moisturise your face
Before landing, gently apply some moisturiser to your skin – it will make you feel fresh and awake.

Apply some make-up
Only after you have done all this should you apply a little make-up. Concealer or tinted moisturiser and a little mascara should be enough – you don’t want to look too done up.

Victoria Beckham turned down Kim Kardashian’s request to design her wedding dress – for fear it would cheapen her brand!

The 40-year-old fashion designer was reportedly approached earlier this year about creating a gown for the reality TV star’s big day, but asked her team to tell Kim she was too busy.

But insiders have said VB refused the offer because she was concerned about ‘devaluing’ her brand!

Kim was said to be desperate to wear a VB dress for her nuptial with Kanye West, but Victoria – who works with the very A-list of the showbiz world, including royals – apparently didn’t want to be dragged into the world of reality stars.

They don’t call her ‘Posh Spice’ for nothing!

Kimye have been teasing us for weeks now about the details of their big day.

The couple are apparently set to marry in a secret ceremony in the coming days, and the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star was seen boarding a flight to France earlier this week.

They were rumoured to be having a lavish wedding extravaganza in Paris, but it’s also been claimed they are going to break with expectations by holding a highly secretive ceremony  instead.

Kim and Kanye are so intent on keeping their wedding private that they have secured a ‘confidential’ marriage license so no one officially knows what the heck is going on!

BMI – or Body Mass Index – has been the go-to method of measuring what kind of shape we’re in for years now

It works by dividing your weight in kilograms by your height in metres squared – simples.

But now, many scientists are calling for another means of testing because BMI doesn’t take body fat into account.

Muscle is heavier than fat, and so the index has come under fire recently, because some athletes might be considered ‘obese’ when their BMI is taken.

And then there’s the ‘skinny fat’ person, who has little muscle mass but might have a layer of fat around their middle – which is thought to contribute to heart disease and Type 2 diabetes.

Doctors are said to be adopting a new system called the ‘Body Shape Index’ – which takes in your waist measurements too.

The BSI is more about your body’s fat content than your weight.

Another method being tested out is the Body Adiposity Index (BAI), which divides your height by your hip circumference to calculate body fat percentage.

Can we not just judge it by what jeans still fit us?

The song that has given Pharrell Williams international success and a Oscar nomination was actually not supposed to be for Pharrell in the first place.

Pharrell revealed in a recent interview, that Cee Lo Green originally wanted to record Happy and sounded amazing on it to.

“He sounded amazing on it, he burns my version! But … how do I say this diplomatically? The powers that be, at the time, did not see it fit for him.”

But Pharrell has insisted that Cee Lo has handled Happy’s success graciously.

“It’s not his fault — he was totally down with it … He was one of the most gracious people about it when it came out.”

Travelling helps to broaden the mind, experience new cultures and meet new people. It’s not all serious and educational though – these places will give you a right good giggle every time you pass their town name…

Boring, Oregon
Apparently, Boring’s slogan is ‘The most exciting place to live.’ Eh, really?

Yolo County, California
Why not head to Yolo, sure You Only Live Once.

Dildo, Canada
Imagine the conversation with your boss, ‘So, where are you from?’ ‘Dildo’
*Cue awkward silence…*

Shades of Death Road Road, New Jersey
Apparently, a lot of accidents happen on this road – maybe we’ll do a detour around this road.

Emo, Co. Laois
Whoever said Laois wasn’t an emotional place to visit had obviously never been to this town.

Lake Disappointment, Australia
Oh dear! Maybe we’ll give this one a miss, it sounds like we’ll just be disappointed…

Sandy Balls, Hampshire
Yes, you did read that right.
