Following a recent (and very public) feud between Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Louis Walsh, one of the singer's Girls Aloud bandmates has spoken out in her defence.

Former X Factor judge Louis turned the wrath of Cheryl's fans upon him back in May when he called her "lazy" and "irrelevant," saying, "She can give so much more." Now, ex-Girls Aloud member Kimberley Walsh has jumped to protect her friend, telling Fabulous magazine that Louis' comments come as no surprise.

"Louis will say whatever it takes to get him in the press and nothing surprises me," she told the magazine. "He'd turn on anyone at any time if it meant it got him into the press."

Both Kimberley and Cheryl were managed by Louis during their time in Girls Aloud, but it seems relations are not so smooth between the music mogul and his former clients these days. "I don't really have much time for him. I don't owe him anything," Kimberley said.

At the time of Louis' comments, Cheryl was also quick to stand up for herself on Twitter, criticising his work on The X Factor and adding, "I am beginning to wonder if Louis has some kind of an obsession with me."

Ouch.

This is not the only time Cheryl has responded to harsh comments using her social media accounts. Last week she hit back at a fan who had commented on her weight loss, taking to Instagram to say, "I am so sick and tired of it being ok to call someone too thin or a 'bag of bones'… You have no idea what I have been through."

 

Looks like she probably doesn't need Kimberley to help stand up for her…

In case you didn't know, Zac Efron has a 23-year-old brother named Dylan. Although Zac has been in the limelight since his childhood years, Dylan has remained pretty much unknown… but if this latest update is anything to go by, he could have a pretty solid future as a Calvin Klein model.

The brothers have been pictured before at basketball games in Los Angeles, and although Dylan keeps private on social media, sibling photos do pop up from time to time on Zac's Instagram and Twitter pages.

The 17 Again star is currently enjoying a break from filming in Hawaii, and has been fitting in some family time while he's there. The buff actor posted a photo earlier this morning of himself and Dylan enjoying their night on the beach… while topless of course. And we have to say, it looks like Zac has some serious competition in the six pack department.

The swoon-worthy photo was captioned "#brothers" and in just five hours already has 330,000 likes. Not bad for a night's work.

Zac is currently living on Oahu in Hawaii, close to the set of his latest film, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, also starring Adam DeVine, Anna Kendrick and Aubrey Plaza. As well as a visit from his little brother, the actor was also recently joined by his girlfriend, model Sami Miro for some quality couple time.

We bet he'll be gutted when filming finally finishes!

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis became Mr. and Mrs. this weekend with a secluded Fourth of July wedding, and here's how it all went down.

The couple were rumoured to have married months ago, but whether or not they did, this weekend was the official celebration for friends and family. A garden party-style wedding took place on Saturday at the Parrish Ranch's Secret Garden in Oak Glen, California, with a source telling Us Weekly that the whole affair was extremely relaxed.

Ashton and Mila reportedly hired out luxury tents for their guests to stay in, closing the private venue off to the public and dubbing the whole area 'Camp KuKu' for the day. 

Mila had her dark brown hair styled in a low bun and wore a simple strapless white tulle gown with crystal beading and a low back. The Black Swan actress wasn't the only one in white though, as her nine-month old daughter Wyatt Isabelle wore the same colour on the day, a dress which Us Weekly's source described as 'adorable.'

As for Ashton, he went down the traditional route for his second wedding, wearing a dark tuxedo and bow tie… certainly a change from his first marriage to Demi Moore in 2005 when he wore a cream tuxedo with a matching fedora hat.

The No Strings Attached star was every bit the doting dad on the day. "He was carrying Wyatt around throughout the afternoon. He clearly loves her so much and never wanted to put her down," said Us Weekly's insider. Little Wyatt was chilled out as anything for her mum and dad's big day, with the source saying she "was great during the ceremony and didn’t cry or make a fuss."

Ashton and Mila got engaged last year after two years together. They first met on the set of That Seventies Show back in 1998, but didn't get together until 2012 after Ashton's break-up with Demi.

A scary two weeks have ended in happiness for the Bublé family, with Michael and his wife Luisana Lopilato last night revealing they were expecting another addition to their brood.

The news comes just days after the couple's first son Noah was rushed to hospital with serious burns following an accident involving scalding water in their Buenos Aires home.

Thankfully little Noah seems to be doing well back home and was even well enough to help his mum and dad reveal their big news to the world via social media. Michael posted a video late last night showing Noah touching his mum's belly as she encourages him to say "Hi baby." The cute clip was captioned, "Noah has something to tell you."

After what was no doubt a terrifying few days, Michael took to Instagram on July 1 to thank fans for their support and let them know little Noah had been discharged from hospital. "I'm happy to report that he is home, happy and healthy on what turned out to be a great Canada day," he wrote.

The Home singer married Argentinian model Luisana in 2011, after meeting her at one of his concerts a few years earlier.

When they first crossed paths, Michael had no Spanish and Luisana only knew the basics of English… true love or what?

He's clearly shed an impressive amount of weight in recent months.

In fact, Mark Wright reportedly slimmed down to the tune of some two stone prior to his May wedding to actress Michelle Keegan. 

And while his new wife certainly seems to be sticking to her healthy eating and exercise regime, the former Towie star has adopted a more relaxed approach for the summer months.

In the six weeks since he said 'I do,' he's posted a series of mouth-watering images to his Instagram account depicting all the fatty foods that he was previously depriving himself of.

There's the Chinese take-away he had the day after his wedding day; a meat-laden pizza; a tray full of McDonalds; cheesy treats; beer; garlic bread, and several ice creams.

Just yesterday, in fact, the 28-year-old tucked into a white chocolate Magnum, immediately followed by a Snickers treat. 

And last night he treated himself again: spaghetti bolognese accompanied by a cool beer, an extra large portion of Brie, garlic bread and plenty of pancetta.

Still, it doesn't appear to have done him too much damage – Mark looks as trim as ever, a feat which he can probably attribute to his committed gym-routine. 

Here, SHEmazing! takes a cold-hard look at Mark's post-wedding diet…

 

Noodles, rice, crackers – it's all there in this post-wedding day delight

 

Melted cheese and sausage seemed to hit the spot nicely for Mark

 

"Polished it all!!" he captioned this image: rum, raisin, toffee and mint choc

Bobbi Kristina’s family have been banned from visiting her following reports that photos of her in a coma were taken and attempted to be sold by a member of her family.

According to reports, security guards at the hospice where Bobbi Kristina is being treated have concrete evidence that it was a member of Bobby Brown’s family that took the photos.

Sources close to the situation told TMZ that the hospice informed the family of Whitney Houston that there was incriminating evidence against the Brown family.

This, however, does not include Bobby Brown himself. Bobbi Kristina’s father has announced that he is committed to finding the person responsible for taking the photograph.

The pictures of Bobbi Kristina in a coma have been offered to a number of high profile media outlets. TMZ confirmed that they were offered the photos as did ET who revealed that the photos have an asking price of approximately €90,000.

Bobbi’s partner Nick Gordon is yet to visit her since she went into a coma in January. Reports have suggested that he has also been banned from visiting his girlfriend as Bobbi’s family claim that he was abusive towards her.

Don’t you absolutely hate it when you turn up at an event and someone else is there wearing the same thing?

It’s worse if you know the person. Say, if it’s your sister. Can you imagine how annoying it would be if you, the Duchess of Cambridge and your not-a-royal sister Pippa keep on showing up wearing the same thing as you?

At your daughter Princes Charlotte's royal christening no less. Etiquette pro William Hanson says Pippa should have worn a colour that contrasted with Kate’s.

We honestly thought these were the kinds of details that are discussed at length before such a public occasion. It seems like maybe not, because after yesterday’s all white affair, we realised that the Middleton sisters have a bit of a trend going on when it comes to their matching colour schemes.

First dates can be brutally awkward. Just imagine your worst ever first date experience. And now multiply it by 10 and have the whole of the internet be able to read it.

We’ve got a lot of second hand embarrassment just thinking about it.

For one unlucky Canadian lady, this unfortunately happened. Toronto based writer Anne Thériault was minding her own business in a coffee shop on Friday when she couldn’t help but overhear some very cringe-worthy antics from the table beside her.

Not wanting the rest of the world to miss out on the suffering Anne thoughtfully live-tweeted the whole ordeal. She graciously did not identify either of the participants. We imagine that they’re very grateful. 

And things just went downhill from there:

Seriously?

 

He likes the sound of his own voice too, his "inner demons" not so much.

Who doesn't appreciate a good coffee though?

Then things got a bit serious….

And mystery girl responded accordingly:

Then she plays it cool.

This is like The Great Escape

And she's out of there, thankfully. We're sure it could have been a nice guy, maybe he just got a little nervous. Moral of the story: first dates are just awkward.

Over the past few weeks you’ve probably been seeing an awful lot of people on social media brandishing their tiny tattoos. No, it’s not just that these people are really passionate about their grammar, although who isn’t these days?

Actually, the viral body art has a much deeper meaning. Most tattoos will have a story behind them, and for those who are part of the #semicolonproject, it’s more than just a punctuation symbol.

The tattoos are reflections of the individual’s struggles with mental health issues such as depression or addiction.

Project Semicolon was founded by Amy Bluel, who said "A semicolon is used when an author could've chosen to end their sentence, but chose not to. The author is you and the sentence is your life."

Amy lost her father to suicide and told the Huffington Post one of the reasons why she set up the project:

“I set out to inspire others so they can know they are not alone, that their story matters.”

And she is:

The project has its own website which encourages people to post images of their tattoos and share their stories. Since the project’s beginning, huge numbers of social media users have gotten on board to spread their support and raise awareness through the viral hashtag.

These are just some of the images which have been spotted which are hoping to spread Amy’s inspirational message. 

 

 

 

People are spreading Amy's message without getting inked themselves, some are using Sharpie's for their designs, and painting.

This woman who bravely went on a date with someone she met on Tinder actually wound up having a fairly alright time… Or so she thought.

While the date seemed to be a success, with the pair sharing an arm-in-arm stroll and even a kiss, it was the man’s next day response that caused Michelle Thomas to write him an open letter.

As much as we all give out about not getting the next-day-call, sometimes silence is golden.

This guy, simply known as Simon, felt the need to explain exactly why he wouldn’t be taking 30-year-old Michelle out a second time.

“You’re cheeky and funny and just the sort of girl I would love to go out with,” sounds like she’s ticking all the boxes so far, no? He continued, “if only my body and mind would let me. But I fear it won’t." 

“I’m not going to bulls**t you… I f***ing adore you Michelle and I think you’re the prettiest looking girl I’ve ever met. But my mind gets turned on by someone slimmer.”

Is this guy actually serious?

Michelle’s open letter that she wrote in response illustrates all the great attributes that this *insert word of choice here* man mentioned, before he decided to comment on her weight.

Ms Thomas explains how Simon has a 13-year-old daughter and it is because of her that she wrote her letter.

“You stirred a dormant fear that every woman who was ever a teenage girl has. That it doesn’t matter how funny you are, how clever, how kind, how passionate, how loyal, how determined or adventurous or vibrant – if you’re a stone overweight, no one will ever find you desirable.”

She encourages the man to praise his daughter’s “intellect and her creativity.”

And oh, she also tell him that he can kiss her “exquisite, unmarriageable arse.”

Sarah Jessica Parker is on the cover of this month’s Cosmopolitan magazine.

In the glossy, the actress, 50, dishes on how she deals with her fans, and some not so adoring public, when using social media.

Back in May, the star sent rumours, and fans, into overdrive when she posted a photo on Instagram that looked like she was back in character as Carrie Bradshaw. The caption had people online losing their minds.

For any fan of the series that seemed a pretty definite clue that another film could have been in the works. It was actually SJP teasing the launch of her new show line in Bloomingdales.

She got a lot of backlash from the fans, apparently.

She told the magazine “people were in a rage at me, I was shocked. They were convinced I had been taunting them. I'm not that clever!”

Despite the fact that time has passed, since both the picture was posted, and the last SATC film sequel was produced, SJP still gets some heat.

“I'm still finding people and being like, 'No @BoobityBopBeep! Why would I hurt you?' I've never been a mean girl."

After the second film received some less than enthusiastic reviews, it seems quite doubtful that there would be a third film in the future. But the star’s online activity has kept fans hopes alive.

Sarah says she wouldn’t tease without knowing for certain: “to what end would I relish dangling this idea and then saying there's no movie?”

Her red carpet looks are also popular on social media. When asked if she had seen any of the Met Gala memes surrounded her style, it turns out her son was the one to spot the image.

"The one thing that I saw, which was so amazing — my son showed it to me — was my headpiece cooking Rihanna like an egg.”

She also spoke to the magazine about what she believes are the most pressing political issues and identifying as more of a humanist than a feminist. She says that she thinks the world would be more powerful if it were “a humanist movement.”
