Beyoncé’s contribution to The Shriver Report has been released and it is being talked about everywhere we go. The report, founded by Maria Shriver, former first lady of California, aims to modernise America’s relationship to women.

The ‘Is Beyoncé a Feminist?’ debate trundles on with many claiming she empowers women and pushes for change, while others say she just dresses provocatively and is actually a slave to the male-dominated music industry.

Now Bey has waded in with her essay titled “Gender equality is a myth,” which stresses the point that gender equality is not a reality yet.

She goes on to say that “the average working woman earns only 77 per cent of what the average working man makes”. You can’t mess with statistics and frankly, those ones are damning.

How do we change our society’s attitude towards women according to Beyoncé? The answer, for her, lies in teaching future men of the world about equality so as they grow older it becomes a “natural way of life” as well as showing girls that they can “reach as high as humanely possible”.

Well, if any woman can show young girls that they can reach as high as possible, be whoever they want to be and realise their dreams, it’s you, Beyoncé!

We love going on holidays but they can be lethal for our New Year’s resolutions – and we all know how one cheat week can ruin all our good work. Forever.

Researchers at Cheapflights have compiled a very useful list of destinations that can make or break the most common resolutions.

Here’s how you can stay on the straight and narrow while still having an amazing week away from reality.

Resolution: “I will save money”

Make it – Budapest, Hungary
A weekend break for you and your partner (or BBF!) is still achievable, even if funds are tight. It’s possible to snag yourself  a two-night stay at a 3 star hotel available in Budapest for only €162. Now, where did we leave our passports…

Break it – New York City, USA
Although you may get a good deal on a ticket to the Big Apple, you’ll pay through the nose for everything else. The average cost of a meal for two in NYC is €65 and a two-night stay in a 3 star hotel comes in at €400.

Resolution: “Curb my coffee addiction”

Make it – Sri Lanka
Did you now that Sri Lanka produces 12% of the world’s tea? Not a coffee bean in sight, so if cutting down on the black stuff is what you promised yourself this year then head to this eclectic Asian destination and down all the Darjeeling you please.

Break it – Sấo Paulo, Brazil
If you’re trying to cure your addiction to coffee then clearly Brazil is the wrong place to head to as it produces 40% of the world’s coffee – eek! Coffee is a integral part of society and Brazilian culture, particularly Sấo Paulo.

It looks like music producer will.i.am might be getting kicked to the curb!

Rumour has it that Fergie’s husband Josh Duhamel is pushing hard on getting Fergie away from her long time music partner will.i.am.

Even though the ‘Where is the Love?’ stars started off together, it seems like they won’t be working together for much longer.

The 38-year-old singer’s hubby Josh Duhamel is apparently trying to ‘drive a more permanent wedge between her and will.’

An inside source says that Fergie is having confidence issues and actor Josh Duhamel plans to be her knight in shining armour and help her re-establish herself.

A reliable source revealed that ‘Josh is pushing hard for Fergie to make a much cleaner and clearer break from The Black Eyed Peas so she can re-invent herself as a solo artist without the looming spectre of will.i.am influencing every creative decision she makes.’

Maybe this cute hubby was starting to feel a bit like the third wheel.

Foundation is the key to a great complexion and flawless looking skin…and most of us are getting it wrong..

Follow our 10 Commandments of Foundation and you’ll always be ready for your close-up.

  1. Make sure your skin is cleansed and exfoliated.
  2. Only use foundations that complement your skin. Oil-free for oily skin, hydrating formulas for dry skin and hypoallergenic for those who are sensitive.
  3. Check shades on your jawline not on your hand. Double-check in natural light before making your decision.
  4. Don’t stick to the usual. As the seasons change so too should your foundation.
  5. Smooth your face with primer. A lavender-based one will brighten dull skin while a green-based one will cover up redness.
  6. Use concealer to hide any imperfections but make sure you blend properly.
  7. Lightly pat the foundation onto your face. Don’t forget to blend around your ears.
  8. Learn the art of contouring. You can define your face by creating shadows with an angled powder brush.
  9. Bronzer can give you a healthy glow. Sweep small amounts wherever the sun would naturally touch.
  10. Don’t forget your highlighter. This will add instant soft lighting where needed.

Nooooo, how did we miss this?

The new drama will also star Billie Piper and has been filming since October.

Keep your eyes peeled for the sexy Pearl Harbour actor – we know we will.

One Direction’s Liam Payne has issued an apology after a photo of him standing on the ledge of a building, thirty-four floors above the streets of London, was circulated.

The image of the singer was uploaded to Twitter by a friend and has now been deleted.

Liam, who is well aware of his massive responsibility as a role model to many young teens, took to his own Twitter account to berate his actions:

“You may have seen a picture of me today taken on top of a building. I regret being there and having a photo taken” … “It was a stupid thing to do. I am sorry, and do not endorse any fans trying to repeat this, as it is extremely dangerous”.
