A Chinese cleaner from Shanghai has become the next victim of a terrible escalator accident which took place late yesterday evening.

In yet another escalator malfunction, the cleaner was seen mopping the moving escalator when one of the moving steps collapsed and trapped his foot underneath.

The mishap was caught on video and has now been watched by more than 95,000 YouTube users.

In the same clip, which some viewers may find distressing, the cleaner is seen panicking and shouting for help. Onlookers rush to his assistance, but sadly they were unable to rescue his foot from the broken step. 

It is said that the emergency services took nearly 20 minutes to relieve him from the trap before he was rushed to hospital. Unfortunately doctors were not able to save his foot and the man will now have to get it amputated.

This news comes just a week after footage of a brave mother trying to save her child before she plunged to her death through a faulty metal plate emerged online. The 30-year-old had to throw her son to safety before she fell to her death.

It took four men to rescue her body from the fall. An inquest said that maintenance workers recently replaced the metal panel but did not secure it with screws.

An investigation into yesterday's accident is now taking place.

Just because you're trying to stay in shape doesn't mean you need to say goodbye tasty, filling food… at least that's Irish model's Rozanna Purcell's motto.

S! TV's Lisa Kavanagh headed along to the Clayton Hotel Vitality Breakfast in Ballsbridge recently, to try out some farmer's market style morning eats and to chat to foodie fanatic Roz.

The 24-year-old model, who has her own cooking and lifestyle booking coming out on pre-order later this year, whipped up some vibrant and refreshing Power Smoothies, and let us in on her diet secrets.

What does she eat every day? "Kind of everyday things, the food you would have grown up with," she explains.

"One thing I've learned through years of modelling, especially abroad, is that diets and fads go up and down and you go in and out of them just as quick. If you want to adapt to healthy lifestyle it's all about being sustainable."

27-year old Love/Hate star Susan Loughnane became victim to a scam when she tried to book a holiday in the sun.

Known to any fans of the series as Debbie, Susan had tried to place a deposit for a house in the Algarve in southern Portugal when she realised her messages had never reached the owner.

Trying to book her sunshine break through rental firm Owners Direct she realised she had been hit by a scam.

The Mirror reports the actress said she had paid €500 for a villa in the popular holiday spot, but she said that her correspondence with the company had been intercepted by a scam artist who attempted to steal her information.

She said about the scam, “when we got in touch with the owner of the villa recently after paying the deposit, he'd never heard of us and said he didn't have a booking."

She took to twitter on Monday to address the company directly and received a reply within an hour.

The redhead was due to spend 10 days soaking up the sun and has said she’s been offered different accommodation by the company. Unfortunately she says the accommodation offered was too expansive compared to what she had tried to book first.

The holiday was supposed to be sunshine filled getaway for her and fiancé David Doyle, the pair announced their engagement earlier this year.

Susan is also set to star in the new series of Hardy Bucks later on this year.

He has created a new bed which is both terrifying and genius… and we kind of want one for ourselves. The high voltage ejector bed is the next step in helping people get up when their alarm goes off. There's no such thing as hitting the snooze with this contraption as it doesn't take no for an answer and will literally throw you out of the bed.

Colin designed and made most of the invention at home in his garage before putting up a video on YouTube demonstrating how the bed works.

It has recently been all work, work, work and no play for the newest X Factor star but Rita Ora was spotted over the weekend partying on the sunny isle of Ibiza.

Not that this is your average package deal away: the 24 year old was seen frolicking on a private yacht named Gold Digger. Fancy!

For the occasion, The Hot Right Now singer wore a sexy and revealing two-piece bikini with tiny black and white straps. The monochrome number, which isn’t for the faint hearted, is by Sian Swimwear and cost nearly €100.

Rita definitely oozes body confidence with this number as it leaves little to the imagination but showed off her slim figure perfectly.

The busy star partied the day away, staying hydrated with ice cold drinks. She also busted some moves on the deck.

Rita has had a hectic schedule over the last few weeks as she moved from The Voice UK over to The X Factor along with new judge Nick Grimshaw and returning judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.

The judges have just spent the last few weeks filming the audition stages of the 12th series of the show which will hit ITV and TV3 this autumn.

And to add to her already manic schedule, Ms Ora is releasing her anticipated second studio album later this year, after unveiling her latest single Poison in June.

Over the weekend she also teased her new single Body On Me in which she collaborated with Chris Brown.

She also recently split from boyfriend Ricky Hilfiger after an on-off one year relationship.

They ended things mutually as the singer and Tommy Hilfiger’s son are said to be both concentrating on their careers.

Singing superstar Rihanna has shared some pictures of herself on Instagram and she looks incredible! 

Bad Gal Riri was seen partying with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton at the annual Kadooment day parade in Barbados. 

The Mercedes driver fueled rumours that he may be dating Rihanna by spending the day at the event with her.

The singer was dressed in an amazing costume which really showed off her toned tummy and bum. The outfit consisted of lots of blue and green colours which consisted of an extremely small studded bralet, huge wings and all topped off with tall feathers on her head. 

She was seen laughing and drinking with pals at the festival although she was mobbed by fans as she attended the event. 

Rihanna was first rumoured to be dating Lewis Hamilton back in March and a source told Star magazine that "sparks have been flying between the pair for quite some time. 

Rihanna topped off her gorgeous festival look with some seriously curly hair and bright pink lippy!

The Umbrella singer has been chilling in her bikini all week according to her Instagram. She spent a few days soaking up some sun with her BFF Melissa Forde before Lewis Hamilton arrived on the island. 

Melissa is also Rihanna's photographer and she shared a snap of the musician chilling on an inflatable in the pool with a drink.

This month Vanity Fair have given Taylor Swift the title ‘Captain of the #GirlSquad’ as she features on the magazine’s cover.

As she’s travelled around the globe for her 1989 tour, there has been one trend the public can’t help but notice. Taylor has an awful lot of famous friends, and she loves inviting them on stage with her.

 

I ADORE THESE GIRLS. @angelcandices @lilyaldridge @marhunt @uzoaduba @karliekloss @behatiprinsloo @gigihadid

Her posse of female celebs is, according to Tay-Tay herself, “so much more important than some guy that it didn't work out with.”

She has revealed however that there are girls in the group who share more than a love of onesies and Taylor’s company, admitting “We even have girls in our group who have dated the same people.”

We thought so. Taylor went on to say that instead of their shared love lives generating some awkward moments for the gang, she thinks they have more important things to worry about.

“Now more than ever we need to be good and kind to each other and not judge each other – and just because you have the same taste in men, we don’t hold that against each other.” The Bad Blood singer counts Karlie Kloss, Lena Dunham, Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez and tennis superstar Serena Williams as some of the many who have joined her on tour this year.

She also said that when it came to addressing her issues with tech giant Apple, her mom was the person whose opinion she valued most.

She said she told her: "I’m really scared of this letter, but I had to write it. I might not post it, but I had to say it."  

Taylor revealed she relaxed her attitude towards love and dating in the last couple of years saying, “If I found someone who would never try to change me that would be the only person I could fall in love with.”

Considering her and Calvin Harris seemed more loved up than ever celebrating BFF Karlie Kloss’ birthday together it looks like the laid-back approach worked out.

The hashtag #IfAnythingSchoolTaughtMe is trending on Twitter, and we can relate extremely well to some of the posts. 

From being asked to answer a question even when your hand wasn't up to learning to text while still looking at the teacher , people are pointing out some seriously accurate descriptions of what you really learn from school. 

If anything school taught me:

"How to forge my parents signature"

"Nothing about how to do my taxes"

"If you ask a teacher enough questions about their personal life, you won't have to do anything"

"How to draw this"

"How to write an essay that is supposed to take 2 weeks to write the night before it's due"

"Half the classes we take we will never use in the real life world.."

"Me: Can I go to the bathroom?
 Teacher: Idk can you?
 Me: May I?
 Teacher: No. "

"Teachers will only ask for homework the days you didn't do it"

Have you seen the latest beauty trend to hit social media yet?

It’s kind of hard to miss to be honest. Bubble nails have been popping up all over Instagram in the last week in all of their curvaceous wonder.

 

A photo posted by Ella Manninen (@elboou) on

Also known as ‘hump nails’, this nail art uses a round of acrylic at the centre of the nail shaped into a bubble like dome.

While it seems to only be picking up traction in the last week or so, Nails Magazine has said that this trend is one that has been doing the rounds since 2009.

In the magazine a nail technician from the U.S Hoa Bui, describes in more details how the technique is achieved.

"Bubble nails require building and sculpting of the acrylic until you get the look your client wants to achieve. You have to know exactly where the hump is supposed to be, then slowly build the nails.”

According to Hoa Bui the curve “has to be perfect”. While there’s no doubt that #curvesonfleek are obviously a big winner this year.

However, despite it being quite a precise technique, twitter users are not so convinced of its glory:

Can we take a moment to consider the practical side of things?

How does one text, for example? How do take your rings off? Can you unbutton your jeans? 

We have a lot of questions about this.

This is slightly cringy. Buzzfeed gave some people a map of Ireland and the UK, or 'the British Isles', and asked them to label which country is which. 

By now we were sure that us Irish had put our little Island on the map. Between Guinness and now our world famous Conor McGregor, but it seems we haven't done enough. Surprisingly, there was only one participant that labelled Ireland and Northern Ireland correctly. 

While one pair were attempting to figure out exactly where Ireland is, they asked something we're not sure that should ever have to be asked: "Wouldn't Northern Ireland and Ireland be connected to each other?" 

When asked about his knowledge on the UK, one person said, "I don't know a damn thing, I just know that's where my home-girls the Spice Girls are from"

Is this serious? We thought we were being punk'd watching this…

Derval O’Rourke, former champion hurdler for Ireland has given birth to her first baby with husband Peter O’Leary.

The 33-year old athlete from Cork, retired from international sports last year and made her pregnancy on twitter on Mother’s Day this year.

Speaking to The Herald last year she explained she wasn’t going to consider starting a family until after she had finished competing.

"You definitely can't jump hurdles being pregnant. We both want kids but I think I'll have to retire before we think about it,” she explained.

On Sunday she took to twitter to announce her baby news. She welcomed her little girl Dafne O’Leary to the world a few days ago and thanked the hospital staff.

She and Peter married in 2013 after they met on a flight back to Ireland from China. They had both been competing in the 2008 Olympics at the time.

Derval is a two-time European silver medallist but her biggest triumph was in Moscow in 2006 when she won a gold medal at the world indoors.

Earlier this year Derval had hit out at how long it was taking to upgrade her 2013 bronze medal from the European Indoors and said the appeals process “isn’t fair on clean athletes”.

Since she has retired she also released a cook book, Food for the Fast Lane, filled with all the tips and tricks she used to help her achieve her gold-medal wining status. She described her book as:

“It's very much a home cook book. For me it's eating really tasty healthy food every day. It’s about a lifestyle and I wanted to make the book quite personal to me."

Congratulations to the happy family!
