Wow! Rita Ora is giving us some serious body goals with her latest video on Instagram, a teaser for her new song Body On Me. 

While wearing a swimsuit that shows a whole lot of leg, Rita can be seen dancing around at home to her new tune. In the video, the X Factor judge appears from behind a wall and shows off her gorgeously toned legs dancing around her hallway. 

We are loving the sound of her new song already and now we REALLY need to get our hands on a pair of those high leg swim suits. 

Yeah, we totally look that good dancing around the house too. 

Of course, this is not the first time we've had serious body envy after checking Rita out. Earlier this week, the 24-year-old was pictured partying on a yacht while taking a break from her judging duties, looking downright incredible in a white two-piece with a price tag of close to €100.

The How We Do singer clearly has her swimwear wardrobe on point…

Rita is currently starring alongside Simon Cowell, Nick Grimshaw and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini on the judging panel for the latest series of the X Factor. 

We can't wait to see if she beats Cheryl in the style stakes for the live shows…

We’re going to seriously be rethinking any late night burger cravings after this news.

One of the most popular fast food restaurants in Limerick city centre was forced to close their doors last month after they breached food safety regulations.

A closure notice was served on the Rockin’ Joe’s diner on O’Connell Street on July 21 according to the Food Safety Authority of Ireland. Fortunately for anyone in desperate need of a double chocolate milkshake the closure was lifted the following day.

Specific details on the closure notice were not released but we think the closure in itself was enough for people to lay off the chilli cheese fries for one weekend.

Considering closure orders are served to restaurants when there is likely to be “grave an immediate danger to public health,” we feel that these notices are not something to take lightly.

CEO of the FSAI has expressed her disappointment in how some owners are not prepared to take all the necessary steps involved in delivering the best and safest services to their customers.

“Unfortunately we continue to encounter cases where consumers’ health is put at risk through a failure to comply with food safety and hygiene requirements,” she noted.

She also pointed out that these breaches in quality are “completely avoidable when food businesses have proper food safety management systems in place.”

Rockin’ Joes was only one of several restaurants around the country that was hit with forced closures and notices from FSAI.

It seems like only yesterday that he split from Paula Patton, his wife of a decade and the mother of his young son.

Indeed, their divorce was only finalised in March.

Then of course, a little over a year ago, Robin Thicke released a new album touchingly entitled Paula, which he dedicated to her.

But if recent reports are to be believed, Mr Thicke is a fast mover: the Grammy-winner is now… engaged!

He got down on one knee recently, with his overjoyed 20-year-old girlfriend of ten months, April Love Geary, immediately accepting his proposal. 

According to a source who spoke to Life & Style, the 38-year-old Blurred Lines singer simply doesn't want to risk losing April – and so is happy to see their relationship move fast. 

“Both his parents have told him to take some time and not rush into marriage again so soon,” the same source adds. 

 

Daddy long legs.

Seemingly he’s not listening to those pleas: “They go almost everywhere together. He’s totally obsessed with her,” they continued.

However, as the pair have no date yet in mind – and as his divorce is so recent – he's apparently not ready for April to go public with a ring just yet.

“He's aware of how things look,” another, separate friend confided. “He absolute wants to commit to her fully and thinks she's The One – but he also reckons they should wait a while before making a formal annoucement.” 

Robin and April only made their red-carpet debut in May, when they hit the Cannes festival together – with numerous onlookers there saying they couldn't keep their hands off each other.

We're awaiting official confirmation, but a huge big congratulations to the happy couple regardless!

She's one of the most mega-famous faces in the world – not to mention married to one of music's biggest stars.

But it seems that Kim Kardashian hasn't forgotten about us mere mortals. Indeed, during her day-to-day dealings with non-celebrity folk, the reality TV star remains remarkably generous. 

On Tuesday, Mrs West hit Brennan's in New Orleans, along with her BFF Jonathan Cheban and a couple of others. 

Now five months pregnant, Kimmy ordered eggs and french toast, while Jonathan ordered turtle soup – despite being previously unaware that the dish is made from real turtles.

In the end, the bill came to €185 – but 34-year-old Ms Kardashian left a €275 tip. Nice!

Although – the entourage was accompanied by the KUWTK cameras, meaning Kim's tipping skills were under particular scrutiny.

We wonder if she's always so generous?

Introducing the world's most generous couple!

Over the past few years, Turkey has welcomed almost two million refugees from Syria, with 4,000 alone in the Turkish city of Kilis, all of whom are fed by a charity in the area. 

One bride and groom decided to share their joyful day with those who are less fortunate by inviting them to eat with them and celebrate at their wedding. 

​Fethullah Üzümcüoğlu and Esra Polat got married in a province near the Syrian border last week. Spurred on by an idea from the groom's father, they opened their big day to thousands of people in need.

Food was provided to the guests using trucks and the bride and groom were among those who helped to dish it out. Father of the groom Serhat Kilis said that he hopes others will follow suit and spend their wedding day celebrating with their Syrian brothers and sisters. 

"We thought that on such a happy day, we would share the wedding party with our Syrian brothers and sisters," he explained. 

"God willing, this will lead to others doing the same and giving food to our Syrian brothers and sisters. For us, it was an interesting wedding dinner."

Bride Esra described the whole thing as a "wonderful experience," adding, "I’m happy that we had the opportunity to share our wedding meal with the people who are in real need."

World famous luxury shoes can now be all yours. Well, sort of.

The iconic Louboutin brand have branched out from their famous heels and unveiled their latest creation for the masses.

Last year the brand launched a signature nail polish collection so it may not be considered a huge leap for the Louboutin name. However, any make up addict is sure to be all over these lovely shades, because not only does the product itself look great, the packaging is gorgeous too.

There are 36 different shades in the collection with three varying textures for you to choose from too. Ranging from Silky Satin, Velvet Matte and Sheer Voile which were inspired by the brand’s handbags.

Naturally the collection would not be complete without their signature red shade making an appearance, Rouge Louboutin is of course one of the many they have on offer.

Another sweet feature for the lipsticks? The cap has a tiny ring on the top that you can thread something through, ideally a fancy ribbon according to the brand's images. The idea being you can then wear your favourite lipstick all day long both as an accessory and as lip colour.

Lipstick jewellery is probably something we thought we left behind in our childhood, but Louboutin does add a certain luxury to the concept. Describing the new venture Louboutin said:

"This precious object will be coveted by others. Suggesting a purse full of rare and precious stones that could have been discovered in Ali Baba's cave, it will arouse lust and desire…and is made to be stolen." 

The one downside to all of this glamour, the price tag is pretty hefty. The lipsticks are set to retail for around €80. We petty start saving our pennies now to be prepared for their arrival on Irish shelves.

In this day and age it is very rare to come across at least one person who hasn’t given online dating a go by now.

Tinder very nearly revolutionised the relationship game. There may well have been some love stories with origins beginning with a right swipe and a risky direct message, but for every romance there’s probably about ten absolute fails when it comes to online dating.

Sometimes the struggle just gets a little bit too much, but its ok, you’re not alone in this bizarre virtual love fest. We considered ten of the times when the online dating struggle.

The fear of judgement is real, but totally unnecessary.

Then you have to navigate the weird profiles.

When someone tries to slide into your direct messages like a boss and you’re just not feeling it.

For example, this opening line:

There’s the times you think things are going relatively fine. Then all of a sudden BOOM! X-rated snaps everywhere.

Trying to ignore or block these kind of events can take more time and energy than you thought.

You try to take a break, then ease yourself back in, which is harder than you think.

Nothing has really changed though.

Unless you find a seemingly normal person and can’t believe your luck.

So you resort to finding out EVERYTHING about them before you meet them in real life.

We've all been there, spending the majority of our pay cheques on rent and and then bitching about it until we get our next pay cheque. 

Usually we threaten to leave our jobs, leave our apartments and then leave the country.

Well this guy did just that, besides leaving his job, and commutes from around 1,500 km away every day. 

Sam Cookney was so sick of the extremely high rent prices in London that he decided to move to Spain and travel to work in England each day. 

Two years ago, Sam tweeted saying: "Done the sums. Would actually be cheaper for me to rent 2 bed flat in Barcelona+commute to London, than get 1 bed here. Genuinely. Blog it?"

He then wrote a blog post two years later confirming that this was in fact what he was going to do, explaining his reasons behind the move and how much money he was going to save each month by moving country. 

In his blog post he wrote:

"I think many people thought I was joking when I boldly declared it would be cheaper for me to rent a two bed flat in Barcelona and commute to London every day than get a one bed flat here. Turns out I was – I could in fact get a three bed flat."

The 32-year-old now travels four days a week to London from Barcelona and he actually saves money on rent! Even though he moved from sharing an apartment in London to his own Three-bedroom apartment in Spain.

In his blog post, Same explains how he paid €1,979 a month to live in London which includes rent, travel and council tax. He now pays €680 a month for rent in Barcelona and €912 on travel which brings him to a grand total of €1,592. 

And turns out he's saving more than just pocket change, he has a saving €387 to spend as he pleases on his new life in Barcelona. We have to say, we are a bit jealous.

Put down those oysters because they are not helping your cause, sorry everybody.

A study recently published by the International Society for Sexual Medicine has analysed what are most commonly thought of as popular aphrodisiacs. What they found out has got some people second-guessing everything they thought they knew about matters of libido.

Most of what people believe are actual aphrodisiacs in fact don’t do much except for make you believe you are supposed to be acting sexy.

The Food and Drug Administration in the US has defined an aphrodisiac product as “any product that bears labelling claims that it will arouse or increase sexual desire, or that it will improve sexual performance”.

As of now, there aren’t any products which have been approved to treat female sexual dysfunction, which is why many people have been seeking solutions from natural products.

The issue now is that likely don’t actually work the way people think they do.

Time magazine rounded up some of the things which fall into the urban legend category with their non-existent libido boosting.

Chocolate, honey and oysters have all been busted. Researchers are saying that there has been no trials that can confirm these food items have any effect on sexual function or desire.

However, all hope it not lost, ginger looks like it could be a winner.

The specific Korean red ginseng herb apparently has “been shown to improve sexual arousal in menopausal women”.

Well now, there’s some information for you to consider next time you're planning a night in…

This announcement comes just in time for that good weather we are being promised for the weekend ahead.

Queen of Everything, Beyoncé Knowles has struck up a partnership with Flash tattoos. The Beyoncé pack will feature 5 sheets of the metallic transfer tattoos and you’ll never guess what the theme of he designs was chosen to be.

Bees. But of course. Considering her fans call themselves the ‘BeyHive’, we are not all that surprised at the inspirational choice.

In her video for Feeling Myself, Queen B can be spotted sporting a few of the pieces herself. The founder of Flash Tattoos Miranda Burnet has said they are “thrilled” to welcome B to their golden family.

“Working with her has been incredible — she brought really original and beautiful ideas. We came up with a pack that we are all really proud of and excited to wear.”

Not one to fall in with the crowd, Beyoncé’s designs are going to include some very eye catching body art pieces.

“The collection is an edgier take on traditional jewelry — we wanted to focus on making a strong and empowering statement with the designs that embodied Beyoncé.”

The tattoos can be worn almost anywhere on your body. You can even layer up the designs to create some more original and intricate patterns if you desire.

The gold and silver tattoos are designed to look similar to beehive patterns and they include the phrases “flawless” and “put a ring on it”.
