We all love a bit of Benedict Cumberbatch, there’s no denying that. But we feel things may have gone a little bit too far…

A shop called Poprageous are now selling leggings and a matching top featuring a collage of the Sherlock actor’s face all over them!

Needless to say, the leggings have gone completely viral and we have no doubt many Cumberlovers will be flocking the internet for them.

Would you wear leggings covered in tiny photos of Benedict Cumberbatch’s face?

That happened fast! 

One Tree Hill star Chad Michael Murray has quietly tied the knot with his Chosen co-star Sarah Roemer – and the pair are expecting their first child together, too!

The newlyweds may only have been together since the beginning of last year, but Chad confirmed to E! News this evening that he is indeed married. A source later revealed that Sarah is expecting her first child with Chad. 

Before meeting Sarah, Chad had his fair share of relationship ups and downs. His brief 2005 marriage to his One Tree Hill co-star Sophia Bush ended in divorce after just five months, following rumours the actor had cheated on Sophia with Paris Hilton. Awkward.

"We were just two stupid kids who had no business being married," said Sophia of her relationship with Chad.

The actor was also engaged to Kenzie Dalton for seven years after meeting on the set of One Tree Hill where she worked as an extra. Chad proposed while Kenzie was still in high school, but the pair parted ways in 2013.

We hope Chad's second marriage (and third engagement!) is his happy ever after! Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Murray!

Former TOWIE stars Sam Faiers and Lucy Mecklenburgh have always had a few, shall we say, issues with one another and now it looks like things are beginning to escalate.

The pair, who were once good friends, are no strangers to drama having gotten into numerous spats over fellow TOWIE cast member Mark Wright.

Before meeting former Coronation Street actress Michelle Keegan, Mark briefly dated both Lucy and Sam – that's a goldmine for drama right there!

This latest development is more to do with work and less to do with men, though. Both ladies have used their passion for fitness to their advantage in recent months, with Sam starting her own health and training website at the beginning of this month, and Lucy launching her own book and fitness company, Results With Lucy, last year.

It seems Lucy isn't too happy with Sam jumping on the fitness bandwagon, though, as she has now blocked Sam's official account on Twitter. Ouch.

"Sam’s and Lucy’s Twitter handles were both tagged in a tweet by a follower, but when Sam’s team, who run the account with Sam, went to reply, they found that Results With Lucy had actually blocked them," said a source close to the pair.

A simple mistake – or something more significant? We hope it's the former, but with these two you just never know!

We never say no to a good real-life TV reunion, and this one definitely doesn't disappoint.

Disney Channel show Lizzie McGuire ended a decade ago this year, but the cast seem to be as friendly as ever, if this new picture is anything to go by.

Lalaine Vergara, who played Lizzie's BFF Miranda Sanchez, shared an aborable before-and-after picture of herself with actors Jake Thomas and Clayton Snyder, with the caption, "You’re welcome everyone. Circa 2005 and last night. Brother @heyclaytron, and brother @SirJakeThomas #FamBAM."

Clayton played Lizzie's HAWT (for a teen!) crush Ethan Craft, while Jake starred as her scheming younger brother Matt.

The show's lead Hilary Duff was sadly nowhere to be seen, as she is currently enjoying some downtime in Santa Barbara with her two-year-old son, Luca Cruz.

Surely Lalaine's picture will spur the cast on to organise a proper ten-year reunion? We have our fingers crossed!

Those moments in life where you wish the ground would just swallow you up…aren't they just the worst?!

Here are some moments in life that can get verrrry awkward. Especially if you're an awkward person in general, like us!

1. Going to shake someone's hand but they go for your cheek
So you put your cheek towards them and they pull back and put out their hand. Oh the humanity! 

2. When you're in mass and that 'hand shaking' bit comes and you put your hand out, but nobody shakes it…
Hey, what's wrong with me?!

3. When a stranger is holding a door open for you but you're that little bit too far away and have to half jog…
We have to thank you for making us exercise against our will? 

4. Realising you got charged more than you should have and debating whether to queue again, interrupt the customer now being served or just accept the loss
Ah, it was only €1.50…

5. Going into a restaurant and not knowing if you should wait to be seated or just sit down somewhere free
Just tell me what to do!

6. Walking along happily when you accidentally hit a guy in the groin with your flyback hand
That will teach you not to powerwalk.

7. Getting on Dublin Bus when you're not from Dublin and not knowing whether to say where you're going or how much money you're putting in the slot
Seriously, which is it?!

8. Tripping in public by yourself and not knowing whether to laugh it off or just pretend it didn't happen
The actual worst. 

9. Saying something funny but no one heard you and they ask you to repeat it but you try to laugh it off but they insist and then nobody laughs
Ugh…

10. Meeting an acquaintance on the street and stopping to say hi quick only to realise after that you're going in the same direction
"Oh, ha, hey again…"

Model Danielle Lloyd is well known for her toned body and hard work in the gym, so she's the last person we'd think would be up for artificial weight loss treatment.

But the star shocked fans when she shared an image of a skin-tightening procedure on her Instagram feed, as part of her preparation for bikini season.

Danielle captioned the picture, "Pro max lipo treatment followed by 30 mins intense body shape getting ready for summer."

Followers were quick to criticise the photo, with one commenter writing, "Waste of money in my eyes and waste of what i call gym dedication and hard work," and another saying, "Why would you need lipo treatment when there is clearly no fat there!"

Danielle retaliated shortly after, saying it was simply a skin-tightening treatment which was great for mums post-pregnancy, rather than invasive liposuction.

This isn't the first time Danielle has come under fire for controversial posts relating to her appearance. Shortly after Christmas, she posted this snap of herself looking super-slim in some revealing lingerie, with a caption complaining that she had gained weight and had to get "back to the gym."

Again, the post caused controversy among followers with followers accusing of her being being attention-seeking and promoting a negative body image. "Tbh, you're way too skinny and need to put on another few pounds love – you're sending soooo the wrong message:-( #lostrespect” wrote one commenter, with another adding "it was just an excuse for you to pose in your underwear. Your skinny and complaining you put on weight?! [sic] More to life than that!"

Danielle later deleted the picture and defended her post:

Maybe stick to the gym selfies for now, Danielle!

Director and activist, Michael Moore has caused controversy after he slammed the new Oscar-nominated movie, American Sniper.

The movie stars Bradley Cooper as US sniper, Chris Kyle and Sienna Miller as his wife. However, Michael Moore has taken to Twitter and slammed snipers as cowards, writing: “My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren’t heroes. And invaders r worse.”

Michael’s issues with the movie don’t stop at the snipers as he also tweeted about the fact that the Iraqi people are branded as ‘savages’ throughout the entire movie as well as slamming the war on Iraq in general.

The Fahrenheit 9/11 director wasn’t the only one to cause upset with comments on the movie, with Seth Rogen accused of comparing to Nazi propaganda when he tweeted: “American Sniper kind of reminds me of the movie that’s showing in the third act of Inglorious Basterds.”

However, Seth has since said that his comment was blown out of proportion and this is not what he was insinuating: “I wasn’t comparing the two. Big difference between comparing and reminding. Apples remind me of oranges. Can’t compare them though.”

It seems like American Sniper is causing serious trouble before the Oscars!

Talk of a book documenting Kim Kardashian's many (many, many) selfies began circulating early last year, but with no news for months, we began losing hope that the idea would ever become a reality.

Now though, Kim has finally shared some news about the upcoming book – and she's even revealed the the cover picture!

The image is, of course, a selfie, showing Kim looking au naturel with wet hair, minimal make-up… and some pretty prominent boobage!

Kim shared the image on Instagram earlier today with the caption, "Thank you Rizzoli for making this happen & being the best partner!!! A big thank you to the Donda team & Kanye for inspiring this idea & helping me share a decade of selfies in such an intimate & artistic way!”

Publisher Rizzoli says the book, titled Selfish, will contain, "many never-before-seen personal images from one of the most recognizable and iconic celebrities in the world." It will be published this April and can currently be pre-ordered online. 

The official book description describes Kim as "a trailblazer of the ‘selfie movement'", adding that readers can expect "her favorite throwback images to current ultra-sexy glam shots."

We wonder if this will spark a trend of selfie books – surely the other Kardashian sisters will be jumping on the bandwagon?

Lip-synching is something of an art. Some of us can do it like pros, and some of us just hope for the best.

But we'd never let a bad sense of rhythm or no knowledge of the words stop us from air-singing to anything. Especially not Taylor Swift.

This toddler's version of Shake It Off is hilarious… and it pretty much mirrors own our skills!

It has been a hard few months for Bruce Jenner. With Kris filing for divorce from him back in September, Kylie and Kris' dad has been left on his own.

Just last week, Bruce was victim of some seriously cruel reporting, when InTouch magazine Photoshopped his face onto that of a female actress, claiming that he had finally decided to live life as a woman.

Yesterday, the Kardashian and Jenner sisters took a break from selfies to pose for a rare family shot with their dad in a public show of support:

Kim, Kendall, Kylie, Kourtney and Khloé all posed with their father for the cosy snap, which Khloé posted to Instagram with the caption, "Family." It's thought the famous clan were together to celebrate Martin Luther King Day, which is a national holiday in the US.

The girls' brother Rob was also present, though he didn't chose to sit in with the five daddy's girls. Khloé later shared another snap of her and Rob together, while Kendall posted this sweet sister selfie to her own Instagram account:

We hope that some family time gave Bruce a boost after a difficult week.

Rumours were rife last week that legend footballer Cristiano Ronaldo had split from his model girlfriend Irina Shayk, and now the news has been confirmed by the sportsman himself.

"After dating for five years, my relationship with Irina Shayk has come to an end," Cristiano said in a statement today. "We believed it would be best for both of us to take this step now." 

The couple began dating in 2010 but things took a nasty turn in recent weeks, with Irina reportedly refusing to attend Cristiano's mum's 60th birthday party. A recent trip to Dubai for the couple also ended in a "massive argument," according to one source.

When things get hostile we agree it's always best to bite the bullet and end things, but we hope the rumours about Cristiano already moving on with another woman are not true!

The footballer has been linked to journalism graduate Lucia Villalon, with the pair pictured smiling together as they travelled back from Zurich following Cristiano's Ballon D'Or win. Although these rumours have yet to be confirmed, we have to admit they look pretty cosy together:

We hope for Irina's sake that her ex hasn't moved on just yet.
