So you’re finally starting to feel comfortable in your relationship and all of a sudden you’ve hit another milestone – meeting your boyfriend’s ‘people’. Eeeek!

If you can survive these meetings, you can survive anything.

The Parents
The most nervewrecking of all, especially meeting his mother. You must walk in having just been told how great they are while also being aware that you are no where near the expectations that they have for their precious little boy.

Pressure rating: 5/5

The Best Friend
You’ll also need to hit it off with the best friend – they will know your other half inside out including the things that you are never likely to hear. More often than not they will be fairly similar in personality to your squeeze but will the jealousy kick in when you take away some quality time from them? Tread softly and you’ll get the blessing you require.

Pressure Rating: 3/5

The Brother/Sister
This will go one of two ways, they’ll love you or hate you. There’s no lukewarm or in between feeling here. I’ve seen it from both sides, having both loved and hated my brothers girlfriends and seen girlfriend’s siblings both hate and love me. They ones that latch onto you will be more devastated than your other half when your relationship ends whereas the ones that hate you probably hatched the devious plan that caused the break up in the first place or at the very least are extremely happy to see the back of you…

Pressure Rating: 3/5

Work Colleagues
They see your significant other on their best behaviour day in day out and only the tame side of what they are capable of (depending of the nature of your job of course)….The work colleague will know little of the venting that is done in your vicinity once home time comes. Chances are you will have heard much about them before you meet them. It’s also a gauge of seeing if you’re spoken about outside the relationship, and are you thought highly of… but other than that they have no where near the influence of anyone else on this list…unless it’s a family business.

Pressure Rating: 1/5

The Ex
They’ll either be stalker-like or happy for their ex to have moved on and found someone like you. If they’re the latter then the actually might be fun to talk to or at least bearable should you ever happen to bump into each other. If they’re the former, you may need the cops on speed dial or perhaps keep a hurley inside the door of your gaf. Either way, obviously there are reasons why it didn’t work out for them and if those reasons aren’t volunteered to you, do you really want to know them?

Pressure Rating: Anywhere from 1 to 5 depending on current psychiatric stability….

Experts estimate that more than 80% of women are wearing the wrong size bra.

While we’ll spend whole afternoons browsing for the bra that’ll bring out the Kelly Brook in us, we don’t pay as much attention to getting the right fit.

But wearing a badly fitted bra can actually make you ill, leading to headaches, neck pain, poor circulation and skin and even breathing problems. A badly fitted bra will also affect your posture in a bad way.

Your breasts change throughout your life, so be sure to get fitted for the correct bra every six months. The average woman changes bra sizes six times in her life, due to changes such as hormones, weight loss or gain, pregnancy or exercise.

With a perfect fitted bra, the breasts are supported from underneath and not from the shoulder straps. This way it will be almost no pressure on the shoulders.

Most lingerie departments have bra-fitting specialists who can measure you on request. A bra should lie firmly against the rib cage. 90 percent of a bra’s support comes from a firm band. A 10 percent loss or gain or in weight usually equals a change in one cup size. A bra should be level front to back across the bodice.

Khloe Kardashian has taken to Twitter to label an Australian TV show “f—ing desperate”.

The row broke out between the reality TV star and morning show Sunrise amid claims her handlers abruptly pulled the plug on an interview when asked about her sister Kim’s baby, North.

“We thought it was a technical glitch but turns out @KhloEkardashian’s people pulled the plug after @Sam_armytage asked about baby North,” Sunrise tweeted.

Khloe fired back accusing the morning show of trying to create a story out of nothing.

“Why would I cut an interview short because of North? Get over yourself Sunrise… The call dropped… stop reaching for a story,” she tweeted.

“You are so f***ing desperate!”

The 29-year-old later tweeted “Sorry KhloMoney took my phone,” referencing her outspoken alter-ego.

Sunrise executive producer Michael Pell told the MailOnline Khloe’s people did pull the plug on the interview and said her local rep had apologised.

He also tweeted, “What happened with @khloekardashian on the show is a good lesson for publicists everywhere. Don’t try to censor natural conversation.”

Photographer Terry Richardson has come under much scrutiny over the past few months with many claims from models and other sources that he is a “pervert” and stories of things that have happened on photoshoots.

Terry wrote a piece entitled ‘Correcting the Rumours’ which was printed in full by The Huffington Post on Friday hoping to clear his name and allow people a glimpse into the type of photographer that he is.

“Four years ago, I chose to primarily ignore a cycle of internet gossip and false accusation against me … when these allegations resurfaced over the past few months, they seemed especially vicious and distorted … an emotionally charged witch hunt.”

“I have come to relaise that absent my voice in the conversation, all that remains are lies.”

The photographer has shot many famous faces from Miranda Kerr, Jared Leto to Obama and even directed Miley’s infamous ‘Wrecking Ball’ video.

Terry finished the piece saying: “I can only hope for this discourse to be informed by fact, so that whether yo love my work, or hate it, you give it, and me, the benefit of the truth.”

Butterfingers Keira Knightley has admitted to spilling red wine down her Chanel wedding dress.

The 28-year-old actress and new hubbie James Righton tied the knot in France last year, but she admits her designer frock is ruined because her friend knocked her glass out of her hand on her big day.

She explained, ”It’s [the dress has] now got red wine spilled down the front because the last time I wore it…”

”It’s quite impressively splattered. But, hey, a good night is a good night and when a dress has had its time, maybe it’s had its time. I’m pretty sure I can get it out but, if I can’t, I’m happy with the memory of a good night and the story of how the dress got destroyed,” she said.

Keira – who is face of Chanel – admits she loves working for the fashion giants because she gets to dress up on the red carpet and pretend to be someone else.

She told the Daily Telegraph newspaper, ”I get to dress up as somebody different. When I’m on the red carpet, it’s, ‘Oooh, who am I going to be tonight?’”

Let’s hope the Pirates of the Caribbean star doesn’t get into too much trouble with the big bosses of the designer label for her vino mishap.

You don’t have to have the perfect figure to turn a man on. Luckily, there are certain things that make all men go gaga for a woman.

Here are the top 5 things that will instantly turn him on:

An accent
If you score a lot more when you’re abroad then there’s a chance that your accent has something to do with it.

A sexy voice
Whether it’s husky or not, a sexy voice sends shivers down a man’s spine.

A nice rack
Don’t worry about how small it is. Men appreciate a woman’s feminine parts no matter the size.

Full lips
The sight of beautiful full lips makes him want to kiss you – just remember to keep them soft and moisturised.

Dirty talk
Since men are usually the ones who initiate sex, a woman who likes to talk dirty is always a bonus. Just watch how quickly he jumps after you tell him what you want to do to him.

New dad Simon Cowell has splashed out a whopping £2,000 on an Aston Martin pram for new baby boy Eric.

It seems that the X-Factor boss wants his son to enjoy the same luxuries he does, forking out for the top-of-the-range buggy that’s based on the Aston Martin’s flashy £1.2 million One-77 model.

There is currently only 800 models of the pram or “the world’s most outstanding contemporary baby travel system”, available for purchase.

Simon and his partner Lauren Silverman bought the pricey pram on a recent shopping trip to Harrods.

The pram features a hand stitched Italian leather interior, and is modelling off the £1.2 million Aston Martin One-77 coupe.

Simon recently insisted he was “born” for fatherhood, although he admitted he had his doubts before the birth of his son.

He said, “I was born to be a dad … I actually said to Lauren beforehand, ‘What if I like the dogs more than him?’ – and she said, ‘You’re gonna be absolutely fine,’ and then literally within seconds of him being born, I got it!”

It looks like checking your BMI and blood pressure isn’t the only thing that determines your health because according to American researchers, personality is as important as family history.

They think that personality determines how well someone looks after themselves and that conscientious people are much less likely to develop a health problem than those who are careless.

Dr Norman Anderson of Duke University in North Carolina said:

“The best health care is one that treats the whole person including how their personality traits impact their attitudes and behaviours vis-à-vis their health.”

He said that his research showed that people who are more sensible at the age of 26 are in much better health  at 38 than those who aren’t sensible in their 20s.

Looks like we’ll be passing on the booze this weekend!

It seems Rhianna’s ex has been a bad boy…again.

R&B singer Chris Brown must stay in jail until a hearing next month after being kicked out of his rehab facility.

This violates the court order mandating he complete three months of treatment.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James R. Brandlin said he was troubled by comments that Brown made during his rehab stay in which the singer allegedly said he was good at using guns and knives.

The 24-year-old singer was arrested on Friday after he was dismissed from the Malibu facility where he was being treated for anger management and other issues.

Brown had been in rehab since November, when Mr Brandlin ordered him to receive treatment as part of his sentence for a 2009 attack on then-girlfriend Rihanna.

Brown’s attorney Mark Geragos asked that Brown be allowed to enter another rehab programme, but Mr Brandlin refused and set a probation violation hearing for April 23rd.
