Earlier this week it was confirmed that Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick officially split up following a nine year relationship and three children.

It was reported that Scott's constant party lifestyle, for which he is well-known, was to blame for the relationship's ultimate demise.

Indeed, a source told E! news: “Kourtney has always taken Scott back and been by his side, but now with three kids it has gotten old.

"Kourtney has to do what’s best for the kids.” 

It is being reported that Scott hasn't been home in a month. With his children aged five, three, and just six months, he remains out of town spending time with his 26-year-old ex-girlfriend Chloe Bartoli, with whom he was photographed getting cosy with last week in France. 

This all comes ahead of a mega party Scott is hosting in Las Vegas tomorrow evening.

Scott even missed his daughter Penelope's birthday (she turned three) yesterday, something which sources told TMZ has been the final straw for his friends, many of whom have urged him to get help. 

The source added that his friends believe they're on a deadline – and that means acting fast with an intervention if necessary. 

Indeed, it is believed that Scott's friends are trying to convince him to cancel his Vegas gig tomorrow night and to go get the treatment he needs first. 

Trips to Vegas seem to be his downfall, although Scott told E! news that when he takes a trip to Las Vegas for work, he flies back to Los Angeles late that night so he can be home with his family the next morning. 

Back in March of this year, Scott checked into the Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica. Shortly after that stint, Kourtney told E! that Scott was "on a good path".

The Royal Family celebrated Princess Charlotte's christening on Sunday with a church ceremony in Norfolk.

Although the public and the media were permitted to gather on the walkway into the church's gardens, the ceremony was a private affair for family and friends only. Luckily for us though, Kensington Palace has just published the official shots from the christening, taken by renowned celebrity photographer Mario Testino.

As well as Prince Charles, Camilla Parker-Bowles, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, the family event was also attended by Kate's sister Pippa, her brother James and her parents Michael and Carole. The family gathered at Sandringham House afterwards to celebrate the happy day:

In keeping with royal tradition, little Charlotte has a grand total of five godparents – Kate’s long-time friend Sophie Carter, William's schoolfriends James Meade and Thomas van Straubenzee, Kate's cousin Adam Middleton, and Princess Diana's niece The Hon. Laura Fellowes.

We are just loving these beautiful solo shots of Kate holding Charlotte and William playing with George:

Gorgeous.

Peruvian photographer Mario has worked with the Royal Family on a number of occasions before, having photographed Prince Charles, Prince Harry and even Princess Diana.

He also took the iconic photos that Kate and William released to announce their engagement back in December 2010:

We can't wait to see more photos of the family as little Charlotte and George grow up.

Have you ever wondered how it is that Kanye is just nailing the style game again and again?

Well, we found the answer, and by answer we mean a pair of brothers from Staten Island that are possibly the coolest siblings we have ever met (sorry Hemsworth brothers).

Twins Dee and Ricky Jackson, grew up in a not so great neighbourhood with their grandmother, who they credit for keeping them out of trouble and getting them into the fashion world.

“Our grandmother, who is a seamstress, is the one who taught us how to sew,” Ricky tells the New York Post in the run up to their designs being featured in an exhibit called “Rise of Sneaker Culture”. Sounds amazing.

At the age of 15 the twins started to make belts and other accessories out of their Xbox controllers. Ricky says this made their designs original and quickly helped them to be recognised in the street style world:

““We had to find a way to distinguish ourselves… So we took our love of all things fun and colorful and incorporated it into our daily looks.”

In 2007, they made their debut on the Marc Jacobs runway and quickly after could count Kanye himself and Rihanna as two of their biggest fans.

Miley Cyrus is also known to sport some of their colourful designs.

The pair’s customised accessories and trainers have been coveted by many celebrities, with Beyoncé being the latest to have requested a unique piece from the boys: a pair of jeans for Blue Ivy.

Dee and Ricky aren’t just content to cater for the celebrity cliques though, when asked who their dream customer would be their answer was only a little surprising.

“I would love to see President Obama in one of our sneakers… Like, ‘Yo, did you see what Obama was wearing while he was walking the family dog?’”

We reckon Boo and Barack would just love to bring some serious style to the lawns of the White House.

 

Boolin and Coolin.

Right now the pair are focused on launching their site deeandricky.com and their Instagram page is an education in fashion.

We feel more stylish after just scrolling through their feed to be perfectly honest.

As the selfie epidemic continues to take over the world, the Russian Interior Ministry have urged their citizens to demonstrate safe selfie practices.

That’s right, pamphlets have been distributed to Russian schools to show youngsters what not to do when taking their own picture.

The official slogan of the campaign translates as “Even a million likes on social media are not worth your life or well-being.”

The pamphlets are providing information to students because as many as 10 deaths and over 100 injuries have happened in 2015 alone as a result of selfie-taking. 

These are the images from the Russian campaign.

Several celebrities are unhappy with the fact that men can go topless on social media but women can't.

In a bid to overcome this, female A-listers have began posting shirtless selfies with men's nipples photoshopped over their own –  a move which evidently keeps the likes of Instagram happy (which bans ladies' nipples).

Model Chrissy Tiegan recently brought the #FreeTheNipple campaign back into the lime light when she posted images from a recent photoshoot which included a nip slip. 

The wife of John Legend was not impressed when her photo was removed, and even posted it more than once in an effort to get the #FreeTheNipple message around.

She then posted a near nip slip with a can of hairspray that just barely covered her lady lumps. 

This prompted hundreds of women to jump on the bandwagon to spread the message. 

A generic picture of a male nipple was even shared around, which people could then simply crop before adding it to their picture. 

One of our favourite OITNB actors even joined in on the fun saying "these are the nipples of Miley Cyrus and Chrissy Tiegan (I hope you don't mind me borrowing them".

Matt McGorry said in his post: "It should be up to the individual woman to decide if she wants to show them, just like men have the choice.

"Part of the stand of #FreeTheNipple is about the right of women to claim what their breasts and nipples mean to THEM, and not have that be defined by how men and much of society decides what their boobies mean."

Matt continued saying: "If you have breasts, you might think, 'I’m not interested in showing my niplets on social media or in public,' in which case you should feel free to keep ‘em swaddled! But shouldn’t you support the freedom of CHOICE."

He then signed off: "At the heart of it, it’s simply about gender equality and equal rights."

It's safe to say he is a new favourite feminist celebrity, so.

Some of her harsher critics have claimed that her use of Botox and other fillers is at times OTT – resulting in a waxen appearance.

But when Kim Kardashian arrived in London earlier today, it was clear that she'd had quite bit of work done: €200,000 worth of work, in fact.

Yes, fans may now be rather concerned that reality TV's biggest star has once and for all gone down the plastic surgery route… but they need not fear!

For the Kim Kardashian spotted in England is, in fact, made entirely of wax.

The €200,000 Madame Tussauds statue, which was unveiled today, even takes selfies – an activity perfected and championed by Mrs West herself. 

The figure also wears the same striking Balmain minidress that Kim wore for her Paris hen party two days before her wedding to rapper Kanye West (well, it's an expertly-crafted recreation, as the original is worth some €16,500).

Although, appropriately for a woman rarely seen in the same item twice, Kim will undergo a number of designer outfit changes throughout the summer: the Balmain dress will depart at the end of this month, making way for a fresh look.

And Kanye himself will shortly be arriving at Madame Tussauds in waxwork form, being placed alongside his wife of a year.

The tourist attraction – one of the most popular in the city – said today: "When we were thinking about how we should portray Kim here at Madame Tussauds London, it quickly became obvious it HAD to be taking a selfie.

"But we wanted to make it really special and create a set where guests can take a picture that will look as if they have just bumped into Kim."

The 34-year-old, who is expecting her second child, already has a wax work in Madame Tussauds New York.

Depicting her donning a hot-pink Hervé Léger dress, it was unveiled in 2010. At that launch, Kim said: "This is one of the greatest honours ever and I am so thrilled and excited.

"Now I will never have to leave NYC."

You know that sound that you hate more than any other sound in the entire world? The one that's basically the same as someone scrapping their nails on a chalkboard or someone scratching their fork across their plate?

That sound that you've grown to hate so much that just hearing it, even for only five seconds, immediately ruins your day? Yep, we feel extremely strongly about how much we hate the sound of our alarm.

Most peoples instant reaction is to… Shut. It. Up. Usually by just hitting the snooze to grab a few more Zzzzs in your bed which just got RIDICULOUSLY comfortable, before you have to face the real world, and worse, bare feet on the cold floor. 

But it turns out hitting the snooze is NOT a good idea. According to Robert S Rosenberg at a Sleep Disorders Center in Arizona: "When you hit the snooze button repeatedly, you’re doing two negative things to yourself. 

"First, you’re fragmenting what little extra sleep you’re getting so it is of poor quality. Second, you’re starting to put yourself through a new sleep cycle that you aren’t giving yourself enough time to finish."

But breaking up your good sleep into miniature naps should be OK yeah? Not so much, it seems. He continued by saying: "This can result in persistent grogginess throughout the day."

This means byt hitting the snooze, your setting yourself up for an unproductive, unpleasant day.

Sleepiness during the day can be a serious hazard while driving and leads to more errors in the workplace so this could hugely impact what you do during the day. 

He explained that the reason we're hitting the snooze to often is because we're not getting enough sleep. Adults are recommended to get eight hours sleep a night, but most only get around six. 

Going to bed earlier is difficult, but the first step is putting down the smartphone. According to Elite Daily, "the blue light emanating from these devices disrupts our circadian pacemakers and contributes to insomnia."

If you find yourself constantly hitting snooze, that's just a warning that you need to go to bed earlier put down the iPhone, close the laptop, Instagram can wait until morning, get into bed, read a book and start winding down.

Just earlier this week Iggy Azalea was making sure her ex-boyfriend A$AP Rocky was completely behind her when she had the tattoo of his name removed from her arm.

But apparently, this isn’t the only relationship Iggy is trying to move on from. Reports are saying that the music star has already called of her engagement to U.S basketball star Nick Young.

Rumours are circulating that Nick cheated on Iggy with a former MTV presenter Donatella Panayioto. And no, Iggy is apparently not impressed.

The presenter is claiming that she and Nick were together just a month before he got together with Iggy and Nick and Donatella continued to see each other for another eight months. Uh-oh, that’s not good.

An insider has told Star magazine that “Iggy feels absolutely betrayed by Nick.”

However, the betrayal isn’t deep enough that Iggy is willing to banish all reminders of Nick from her life.

The source went on to say that for the time being, “Iggy’s keeping the rock he gave her.” The rock in question is a 10.43ct diamond worth some €450,000.

Yes, despite being “humiliated” by the rumours, Iggy still feels like “Nick owes her,” so she’s keeping the jewellery he presented her with not so long ago.

Iggy has never been a celebrity who keeps silent for too long, so while there hasn’t been any comment about the rumours from her camp just yet, we imagine it won’t be long before the singer and twerking aficionado addresses the reports.

Katniss Everdeen is back, and she is ready for battle.

The final instalment of the Hunger Games series, Mockingjay – Part 2, doesn't hit cinema screens until November, but the brand new film posters already have us very excited. Our favourite sees Jennifer Lawrence dressed to kill in an all-red suit with armour and arrows, sitting on President Snow's iconic white throne.

The poster was tweeted last night from the official Mockingjay – Part 2 account, with the caption, "Imagine Tomorrow. #Unite." A slogan at the bottom of the poster reads, "The fire will burn forever," no doubt a reference to Katniss' Girl On Fire costume in the first film.

Other cast posters show Jennifer, Liam Hemsworth and more in striking red warpaint with captions like "Panem Unite," "Husbands Unite" and "Soldiers Unite."

Intense or what?

This is not the only film franchise that Jennifer is wrapping up over the next twelve months. Back in March the actress confirmed that the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse, due for release in May 2016, would be her last X-Men film.

The movie is currently being filmed in Montreal, with Jennifer's ex Nicholas Hoult also on set, which we're sure has made for a few awkward moments:

Out of the thousands of diets and food crazes that we hear about, most of them generally have one thing in common: no bread.

There is no doubt that cutting out the King of Carbs is going to help with a huge range of dietary issues. But eliminating an entire food group, as well as one of our biggest energy sources, is bound to have a noticeable impact on our bodies.

Let’s look at what exactly happens when we eliminate bread from our diets.

Rapid Weight Loss

One of the first things you may notice if you completely cut out carbs from your diet is how quickly you begin to lose weight. But what may surprise you is that it’s not actually fat you are losing but water. According to womenshealthmag.com every gram of carbohydrate that is stored in the body holds three to four times its weight in water. So if you cut out carbs altogether, a lot of water weight should drop off quickly.

You can catch… the flu?

Cutting carbs out of your diet is a huge change for your metabolism. An unpleasant common symptom of cutting bread totally out of your diet is the “low-carb flu”. This happens when your body starts adjusting to the change of getting its energy from fats instead of carbs. Symptoms include fatigue, muscle cramps, headaches, bad breath, and brain fog. The good news is that it doesn’t last. Soon your body will start to run on fats in a process called ketosis.

The risk of heart disease fluctuates

This depends on what type of grains you cut out of your diet. According to Plos One, refined carbohydrates can increase the risk of heart disease. Whereas the American Heart Association says that whole grains can improve blood-cholesterol levels and lower the risks of many illnesses including heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes.

Your cravings will start to disappear

Thankfully cutting out white bread will help with your cravings for… white bread! Refined carbohydrates make your blood-sugar levels skyrocket only for them to plummet back down. A study that was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition alleged that this activity can start up our addictive centres in the brain. Choosing fibre-rich whole grains can help to keep the blood-sugars from crashing back down.

Constipation can unfortunately occur

Whole-grains are one of our biggest fibre supplies so cutting out brown bread and whole-grains in general will make constipation more likely. As well as keeping your bowels running smoothly, fibre helps to keep blood-sugar levels consistent and reduces the risk of obesity. Alternative sources of fibre include lentils, beans, avocado, edamame and brown rice.

Energy levels can drop

As carbohydrates are the body’s main source of energy, cutting them out will most likely see a drop in energy levels. This will make exercising more difficult as you may feel fatigued. To combat this it is important to make sure that you get enough fat in your diet to replace the loss of carbs and to stay totally hydrated by drinking loads of water.

Irish expats in Toronto were left a little shellshocked this week by a very controversial ad campaign.

The ad, posted on a truck which has been driving around Toronto's streets in the last couple of weeks, shows an Irish flag and the message "Go Home Irish!" It also features a website, helpfully titled PleaseLeaveCanada.com.

Before you start ringing up the Irish Embassy in Canada to complain though, it might be worth noting that the campaign is more than a little tongue-in-cheek.

The website listed actually redirects users to an Irish ad agency's site, where the following message is displayed:

Aaaaw.

"We want you to come home. Not as much as your mum, but still," the folks at The Social House add on their blog. "We’re going through a growth spurt at the moment, and would love to add talented, prolific, skilled people to the mix, both on the account handling and creative sides of the office."

The ad has popped up outside a number of high-profile ad agencies in Toronto of late, in the hope of catching the attention of some talented Irish employees who might be lured into moving home. Cheeky, but we like it.

After a simple garden wedding at Parrish Ranch in California over the weekend, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have continued with the outdoor theme for their honeymoon.

Following the wedding, the pair took a camper van and drove with their baby daughter Wyatt to Yosemite, the stunning 3,000 sq km National Park in California's Sierra Nevada mountains. The newlyweds were seen checking into the picture-perfect Ahwahnee Hotel, a property dating back to 1927 with rooms offering views of Yosemite highlights like the Half Dome, Glacier Point, and the Yosemite Falls.

As well as suites with a balcony and decking to enjoy the views, guests at the Ahwahnee can also choose to stay in one of 24 cottages set in the forest itself, each with beautiful period decoration.

After checking in, Ashton and Mila were spotted relaxing over lunch on the hotel's outdoor terrace and playing with little Wyatt on the hotel lawn.

In a picture posted to Twitter by fellow guest Ellie Byrd, Wyatt's dad helps her to take a few steps as Mila smiles widely. The pair were both dressed casually for their day at the hotel, both wearing shorts, t-shirts and runners.

"Mila was such a good mom and Ashton was so cute with the baby," Ellie told People magazine. "It looked like a movie scene. It was so cute." 

The couple's weekend wedding was equally relaxed, with guests camping out in luxury tents at the ranch. The Parrish Ranch's Secret Garden was closed off to the public for the day, with 'Camp KuKu' signs hung up all over the venue.
