Whether it’s your partner or your friends you will be cuddling up to this Valentine’s Day, we have the perfect movie for you!

1. The Notebook
Of course this was going to be number one. You may have better luck getting your friends to sit down to this one than your boyfriend though.

2. 50 First Dates
What could be more perfect for Valentine’s Day than a romantic comedy with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler?

3. Love Actually
Technically it’s a Christmas movie but we don’t care because it is so frickin cute.

4. Finding Neverland
Kate Winslet and Johnny Depp are so sweet in this historical fiction movie based on the creator of Peter Pan, J.M. Barrie.

5. When Harry met Sally
Such a classic, the scene in the diner may be a little awkward if it’s your first date though. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

6. The Wedding Singer
Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler make the perfect onscreen couple every time and we just love this cute and hilarious movie.

Hunger Games actor Liam Hemsworth was snapped getting cosy with Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev over the weekend.

Fans spotted Miley’s former fiance in a bar in Atlanta, where he’s currently shooting The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Parts 1 and 2, spending some quality time with Nina and of course, they had to take a picture.

And post it to Twitter.

For anyone dubious about whether or not the brunette is Nina, several tweets went out from people at the bar that night confirming that both stars were there and hanging out.

Is there a new couple on the horizon?

It’s time to ditch the negative thoughts and believe in yourself.

How a person views themselves is the strongest part of the personality, but it is also the biggest downfall. A good self image is important for a healthy mind and the key to creating a positive one is to believe in yourself.

Embrace the positives
Instead of accentuating the negatives, embrace the positives. Can’t complete the 10k without stopping? Applaud yourself for finding the determination to try in the first place.

Surround yourself by people who love you
Ditch the “bad” friends who try to bring you down and surround yourself with people who love you.

Remember your successes
Grab a piece of paper and write down all your successes. You will eventually see that you can achieve anything once you put your mind to it.

Be your own best friend – if you’re not nice to yourself, who will be?

There’s very little we can say to do this justice. The first half is beautiful to watch and then the second half will blow your mind – how are those moves even possible?

Just wow.

Former Disney star Selena Gomez has emerged for the first time since her rep confirmed she entered rehab last month to deal with “emotional issues”.

Considering the starlet’s demanding schedule and the strain put on her by ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber’s latest antics, it’s understandable that she needed some time to herself.

After a high profile relationship with the Baby singer, it was reported that Selena ended the relationship due to Bieber’s wild ways. Recently, sources say that Bieber has been sending nasty texts to Selena; something that obviously put her under extra strain.

Sources close to Bieber say, “He feels bad about her situation,” but the singer hasn’t been to visit his ex. Maybe for the best…

While she looked sombre, it’s great to see Selena looking so healthy – hopefully she’s back in a good place now.

Channing Tatum arrived onto the Ellen show to the crowd screaming wildly for him before Ellen explained jokingly that since he made the movie Magic Mike, “we think you’re gonna take your clothes off”.

However, Channing disappointed the audience before adding that he is: “what me and my wife like to call  it … I’m very fappy … I’m very fat and happy right now.”

Channing is on a break from acting at the moment following the birth of his daughter Everly, with wife Jenna Dewan, 8 months ago.

Unlike “fetch”, we think “fappy” could totally happen!

Famous Irish designer, Orla Kiely has designed a stunning capsule collection for shoe company, Clarks.

The collection is very much retro-inspired with much of the familiar Orla Kiely colours such as mustard, navy, red and orange seen throughout the collaboration.

The collection includes six pieces, including our personal favourite – the mustard and cream coloured platformed Mary-Janes named Orla Marianne that would brighten up any summer outfit in no time.

Each piece also has Orla’s signatory pattern on the sole – a nice touch from the designer!
