Kim Kardashian put a rather interesting post up on Instagram last night, revealing an unmissable return to the Kim we used to know.

Along with the caption “I’m back,” she published a photo of herself with her familiar brunette hair and a pout.

Since the previous decision to go blonde seemed to be Kanye’s, we have to wonder what the “I’m back” is referring to – does she simply mean her old hair is back or is she trying to tell the world she’s her own person again?

J.K. Rowling has admitted that as she wrote the Harry Potter books, she actually thought Harry and Hermione would have made a better couple.

“I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment,” she told Emma Watson, who was interviewing her for the Sunday Times. “That’s how it was conceived, really. For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.”

We can’t believe it!

JK says she stuck to her original plot line, but felt Harry and Hermione “were a better match”. Emma herself admitted that some fans had questioned the final coupling:

“I think there are fans out there who know that too and who wonder whether Ron would have really been able to make her happy.”

Well, we don’t care what JK says – we think Ron and Hermione were the better match.

There’s nothing worse than the feeling we get after overindulging. It can make us feel bloated, sluggish and hopeless.

If you’re tired of feeling this way and want to start the New Year with a clean slate, take a look at the feel-good snacks below.

Get some protein into you.
The right amount of protein can help you feel fuller than most carbs and it’s better for you. Greek yoghurt and cottage cheese are both great sources of protein and energy.

Replace Tayto with popcorn.
Popcorn is a great alternative for crisps. It’s a low-calorie snack that will keep you going without having to feel bad after.

Stack up on vegetable sticks.
You can chop up some carrots and bring them with you to college or work. The more healthy food you have easily available, the less likely you are to eat junk food.

Why would you take pictures of two painfully attractive Hollywood actors and then photoshop them into oblivion?

We were really looking forward to the new posters for Captain America: The Winter Soldier (for both nerdy and pervy reasons) and after seeing them, we’re really disappointed.

Scarlett is gorgeous with an enviable curvy figure, yet in these pictures, she’s had half her waist cut away and her face smoothed to the point that she looks like a little girl.

And Chris Evans? He’s been digitally edited so much he looks like a doll!

It’s so unnecessary and it doesn’t even look good – we wonder what the actors think.

The inspirational Robyn Lawley is all set to star on Cosmo Australia’s March cover and she looks amazing.

It’s a full-length shot of the beauty decked in white and if Photoshop has been used, it’s to a minimum.

No sign of the words ‘plus size’ either; just a mention of Robyn’s campaign against the recent ‘thigh gap’ obsession.

We’re definitely inspired here at SHEmazing HQ and want to see lots more covers like this.

The Saturdays’ Vanessa White has opened up about her secret battle with alcohol.

The singer revealed she was out every night drinking and things got so bad her voice began to go.

Vanessa admitted: “I didn’t know who I was underneath everything I was supposed to be. I’d arrive for work every morning hungover, then my voice started to go. I’d have to ask Una to cover my solos”.

Eventually things began to crumble around her. “My life started to spin out of control in 2012 and it was a dreadful year. I’d be out every night.

“I drank vodka mainly, but, to be honest, I drank anything. It massively affected the band and I felt lonely and depressed”.

She says her bandmates rallied around her and helped her to beat her problem. In 2012, she met boyfriend Gary Salter and began swapping nights out for exercise and healthy eating.

We’re so glad to hear Vanessa is in a good place now and so proud of her for being strong enough to deal with her problem.

And once again it proves just how amazing your closest girls can be.

Former Nickelodeon star, Amanda Bynes, has been spotted out in California and we’re really  happy to see her doing so well.

The actress was seen leaving the gym yesterday looking much healthier than we’ve seen her in a long time.

In an attempt to get back to her old self, she’s even signed up for a part-time course at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.

Amanda had a troubled 2013 filled with bizarre incidents and worrying tweets to her fans. She was diagnosed with schizophrenia after being admitted to a treatment facility for her behaviour and it’s amazing to see what a turnaround she’s made after getting help.

Keep up the good work, Amanda!
