The official teaser trailer for upcoming film, Paddington, has been released and it is every bit as magical as we hoped!

Colin Firth will voice Paddington Bear and the film will also feature Nicole Kidman, Hugh Bonneville and Julie Walters.

Paddington is being directed by Paul King and produced by David Heyman who also produced Gravity and the Harry Potter films. Expect amazing things!

We are beyond excited for this – it’s just a pity we have to wait until Christmas.  Although it does look like the perfect Christmas movie.

We think Michael Fassbender and Lupita Nyong’o would make a great item and it seems like Michael thinks so too.

According to a source, Michael is so fascinated by the Oscar-winning actress that he brought his mother to the Oscars so that she would know he only has eyes for her. They went on to add: “Michael is intent on showing how he wants to get serious again and made a point of bringing his mum Adele to the Oscars rather than a date.”

The source went on to say that the 12 Years a Slave co-stars “have an incredible connection after the whirlwind of filming 12 Years A Slave and then promoting it together.” In fact, the duo have already had a brief encounter while they were attending the Toronto Film Festival last September.

The Irish heartthrob even called it a day with his Romanian supermodel Madalina Ghenea and according to the insider, “their chemistry is undeniable”.

One Direction’s Niall Horan went along to 5 Seconds Of Summer’s last UK show last night and he wasn’t alone.

The Irish singer was snapped cosying up to his rumoured on-again-off-again girlfriend Barbara Palvin.

Niall and the Victoria’s Secret model have spent a lot of time together over the last number of months, although Barbara has claimed they’re “just friends”.

Fans spotted the couple at the side of the stage during the gig and immediately uploaded pictures to Twitter…as you do.

Niall is a big fan of the Australian band, who supported One Direction on tour and Barbara even posted a snap of her view of the band at last night’s gig on Instagram.

Ex Spice Girls singer Mel C, said she has finally overcome her battle with bulimia thanks to the ‘80/20’ diet.

In the past, the 40-year-old suffered from depression and now admits that she ate next to nothing and exercised excessively in the bid to lose weight

Fortunately, the star is no longer afraid of food and has learned to adapt a healthier lifestyle:

“I have my 80/20 rule where through the week I’ll try to be healthy – and then at weekends, I’m a lot more relaxed, especially in front of Scarlet”

We’re not surprised  she brought up her five-year-old girl, because her pregnancy with Scarlet also played a part in her battle with weight loss:

“After having a child, it makes you realise how incredible your body is and it’s made me a lot kinder to myself. Becoming a mum gave me the freedom to finally love myself physically.”

The mother-of-one now cut her workouts from six-per-week to four and seems to be doing well – we’re happy to hear she’s picked herself up!

Diane Kruger looks amazing on the red carpet or just running her errands. It’s not fair!

This first look is lovely as the plain black bandeau top really draws attention to the trousers which look great on her.

This mustard-coloured dress is simply stunning. The old Hollywood style and fabulous shoulder detailing make the perfect red carpet look.

This white minidress is a rather unusual choice for a red carpet event. That said, we really like it! Her hairstyle gives the whole look a certain fairy-tale feel – and what woman wouldn’t love that!

Not everybody could pull off this final look – then again, Diane isn’t everybody! We love this entire look on her; the denim shorts, cute bag with the gold buckle and the pyjama style shirt.

They seemed like the world’s cutest couple when iCarly‘s Jennette McCurdy and NBA star Andre Drummond first struck up their romance through Twitter in September 2013.

However things quickly went south – as these things do – and the two had split by the end of October, with Jennette posting a Vine titled, “Me breaking up with a guy”. Ouch.

Add to that a dig by the iCarly alum last month about Andre’s kissing skills (not good) and you’d be forgiven for thinking that it was Andre who leaked those three racy photos of the Nickelodeon actress.

Jennette certainly does:

Andre is pleading his innocence, saying: “For all the speculations about leaking anything, I have nothing to do with it. I’m focused on basketball. Thank you.”

The photos leaked on Monday and show the 21-year-old posing in lingerie for whoever it was she sent them to.

Hopefully she’s learned her lesson about sending sexy photos and won’t pull a Vanessa Hudgens.

When starting a new relationship, it’s always a good idea to start off slowly. No matter how much you want to rush into things, just take each day at a time.

Remember, you have all the time in the world and the slower the pace, the longer you’ll last.

Step 1: Stay rational
In the early stages of a new relationship, we have unrealistic expectations. We think we know everything about our lover and we imagine qualities in them that mightn’t even exist.

Tip: Think with your head as well as your heart.

Step 2: Set the standards
Sometimes we tend to turn a blind eye to the behaviors we don’t like in a man because we are scared to speak up.

Tip: If you don’t like something, let him know from the get go.

Step 3: Build a friendship
The foundation of a healthy relationship is built on friendship. So it’s important to spend time outside the bedroom so you can get to know each other.

Tip: Go for walks, cook together, hang out – it’s endless really.

From not eating a day before a weigh in to stripping down completely naked, new research showed that women go to extraordinary lengths to make themselves feel better about their weight.

A study for a healthy living campaign by Splenda, found that women are so obsessed with losing weight,  they invent a number of tactics to appear thinner.

Apparently, 49% of the women questioned said they stripped down before weighing themselves and more than half admitted to going to the toilet before stepping on the scale.

All in the hopes of appearing lighter, nearly 9% said they took off their jewellery before a measurement and an extreme 2.5% admitted to not eating the day before a weigh in.

Some women even lied about shedding a few pounds because they didn’t want to be branded as weak and others proudly accepted the praise when announcing weight loss, even if it wasn’t true.

Healthy cooking guru Nadia Sawalha, who is the face of the Small Steps campaign, said:

“We would urge people to forget these dieting rituals and enjoy a healthy lifestyle which includes a balance of exercise and eating sensibly.”

Talking to Clique magazine, the 49-year-old, who is married to Duran Duran lead singer Simon le Bon, said: “At my age you have really good days for absolutely no reason and really horrendous days, again for no known reason”

She added: “I’m not secure about the way I look any more, but I think that’s something I have to grow up about and deal with”.

Yasmin claims that she has never had any cosmetic surgery and admits that she doesn’t have a particularly hardcore beauty regime either. The fashion designer revealed that she is currently using L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Cream and Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream.

Talking about growing older, the model said: “I remember hearing somebody say in an interview that you start to become invisible the older you get, and I’m beginning to understand what they’re saying.”
