Everything to do with Kaley Cuoco’s recent marriage seems to be in the fast lane.

Engaged following a three-month relationship to tennis player Ryan Sweeting and married two months later, perhaps it should come as no surprise that she has now officially changed her name on the Big Bang Theory credits also.

Kaley uploaded this photo to her Instagram account depicting a scene from the show with her married name “Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting” on the credits in front of John Galecki who plays her love interest Leonard. FYI she also went out with John for two years – awkward much?

We all LOVE Kaley here at SHEmazing HQ, so we really hope this doesn’t marriage doesn’t go to the special farm where all Hollywood relationships seem to inevitably end up.

Coleslaw is fashionable again – but not the drippy, creamy awful one you get in packets at the supermarket or in the deli, oh no. This coleslaw is full of fresh crunchy produce and a healthy sauce that won’t leave you feeling bloated and unwell.

It is the perfect side dish for chicken and hamburgers.

What you’ll need for the coleslaw:

  • 2 carrots
  • 1 apple (preferably red as it is sweeter)
  • Handful of walnuts
  • 1 red onion
  • Small head of white or red cabbage (the red gives a wonderful colour)

What you’ll need for the dressing: 

  • Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp wholegrain mustard
  • Salt and black pepper

What you’ll need to do:

  1. Simply grate the carrots, cabbage, onion and apple and mix in a bowl along with the walnuts.
  2. Mix the mustard and olive oil in a bowl and stir in the seasoning.
  3. Put in the greek yoghurt a tablespoon at a time until it’s as creamy as you desire.

A small independent movie, Alone Yet Not Alone has had it’s song of the same title disqualified from the Academy Awards due to it’s writer sending out emails asking people to consider it.

After careful consideration by the Academy, it was decided the song would be revoked from the competition.

The author of the song featured in the little-heard of movie, Bruce Broughton had this to say: “I’m devastated. I indulged in the smallest grassroots campaign and it went against me when the song started to get attention. I got taken down by competition that had months of promotion and advertising behind them. I simply asked that people find the song and consider it”.

Miley Cyrus has advised Justin Bieber is to “buy a house, and add a club to it”. Great advice…if you’re not currently facing assault charges in Canada or charged with a DUI in Miami.

Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Miley said she believes money will solve his problems: “You’ve got a lot of money. Pay people to make sure you don’t get in trouble, and party at your house.”

However, while the Wrecking Ball singer is pretty out there, she insists that everything she does is above board and legal, unlike the Biebs.

“I’m doing a lot of s***, but I’m not doing anything illegal – so that’s alright. Everything I do is legal in California.”

In regards to her unrelenting tongue pose, it seems we’re not the only ones who are irritated by it – her mum isn’t a fan either.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like The Climb hitmaker will be keeping it in her mouth anytime soon.

She says: “You don’t see it, on the red carpet the people taking your pictures are yelling at you. and it gets you a little nervous. They’re screaming I don’t know what to do so I just stick my tongue out because I don’t know what else to do.”

But it’s ok because “Madonna’s doing it” too.

Earlier this week, Shakira gave her fans a taste of what’s to come in her next music video.

For her next track, Shakira is collaborating with Pour It Up singer Rihanna, who is known for being more than just a little ‘sexually explicit.’

The 36-year-old belly dancer chose Rihanna because her new song Can’t Remember To Forget You is a combination of both reggae and rock , which is obviously right up RiRi’s street.

“That’s why I thought that Rihanna was perfect and thought that she was the other half for this,” she explained.

Using the word ‘erotic’ to describe this sneak peek would be a bit of an understatement.

Guess you’ll just have to see for yourself…

When two people have been together for a long time, things can start to get a bit monotonous. You wake up together, eat together, sleep together – it just seems like the two of you do everything together, right?

While it can be perfectly normal to fall into a routine when you’re in a long-term relationship, it’s never a good idea to stay in it.

Here’s how you two can spice things up:

  • Plan a weekend getaway, even if you’re just going out to the countryside, a new scenery is always a good thing.
  • Send each other unexpected text messages during the day. It can be a cute text or a dirty one – the key is to put a smile on his face.
  • Take turns massaging one another. This will help the two of you unwind and allows for some bonding time.
  • Surprise him with breakfast in bed. This might remind him that it’s the little things that count – and he just might return the favour.

We could all do with a bit of help in the morning to get the day off on the right track. You might even manage to give the person sitting next to you on the bus a friendly smile if you start off on the right foot.

Try these four things before heading to work… you will feel the better for it – we promise.

Eat breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Skipping it is not only bad for your health but a hungry worker is a grumpy worker.

Have a cup of warm lemon water
This drink may not sound particularly appealing but it activates digestion and is a sure way to prevent dehydration before you get to the office.

Exercise
This is usually the last thing most people want to do in the morning but it is one of the best things you can do. Go for a quick jog or do some stretches, whatever you choose will help relieve any stress.

Create a positive mantra
Tell yourself you’re going to have an awesome day. You’ll be surprised at how amazing you will feel after saying it out loud a few times.

Now go on and enjoy your day!
