Super model Cara Delevingne was joined by her suicide squad pal Margot Robbie as she stunned with her new hair style at a concert in Canada. 

Cara is well known for setting the bushy eyebrow trend, but it seems she may be trying to set another trend now.

She tried to shy away from the crowds at her girlfriend's concert as she wore over-sized sunglasses and had unrecognisable hair.

It's unsure as to whether this hairstyle is permanent or if it's just a wig to throw off the paparazzi. The 22-year-old wore a funky cropped t-shirt with pineapples on the front with printed shorts and a denim shirt around her waste. 

Cara was thought to have split from her girlfriend of eight months a few weeks ago but she was there to support her yesterday in Montreal.

Ok so we know that we are over half way through summer, but that hasn't stopped us still wanting to achieve that bikini bod we so badly crave. 

But when it comes to starting a new diet, it literally consumes our brain and within five minutes of starting we miss bread more than we thought possible. 

Here are just a few of the thoughts that go through your mind when you start a new diet:

1. This is going to be great

Yes, day 1 is filled with so much joy and possibility! You are so happy that you have started this journey and you just KNOW that you are going to the stick it out for the majority of the rest of your life.

2. Ok harder than I thought, but I got this

Once the excitement of starting something new wears off, you start to realise that not having your Dairymilk and a cuppa is going to be tough. But your only after starting so you can't give in just yet, save it for cheat day, it will taste so much sweeter. 

3. I have had three salads, I must have increased my life expectancy by at least 15 years

After a few days of your diet, you literally feel like the most cleansed and healthy person alive. You can just feel it inside that your are doing good for your body and you will never be sick again. 

4. Is it too early for a cheat day?

Nope? Ok fine, I'll just go back to my snack of some celery and carrot sticks, it's actually really tasty. 

5. I can't drink anymore green tea

It's just not the same. Pass the Barry's tea, IMMEDIATELY.

6. Chocolate is what makes me happy, so wouldn't I rather just be a bit chubby but really happy?

Like I know this diet is suppose to be good for me and all, but food is where I find my true happiness. Life is short, maybe I should just eat the damn cookie and have the damn pizza. That popcorn and coke? Well if that is going to make me feel good, why not have some of that too?

7. Thank god, time for a whole cheat weekend now!!

HALLELUJAH!!  Finally the time as come, I have been healthy for a whole week and now I can tuck in to all of the food I have spent the past few days dreaming about. Celery sticks, you're outta here!

A Spanish police spokesperson has confirmed that Cilla Black has passed away in her home in Costa Del Sol. 

She said: “I can confirm the death of British national Priscilla White, aged 72.”

“We are still awaiting autopsy results but everything at this stage is pointing towards her death being the result of natural causes.”

Cilla had a career that stretched over 50 years, including Blind Date  and Surprise Surprise which were television shows she presented. 

It is thought that her death occurred over night just a few days after she travelled to Spain with one of her three sons. 

Cilla leaves three sons, Robert, Ben and Jack. She was married for 30 years before her husband passed away in 1999 from lung cancer.

She was a true showbiz legend, and will be sorely missed.

Reality television star Kim Kardashian is certainly the celebrity who sets the make up trends nowadays.

When she started contouring, the entire world followed suit. But will we be able to say the same for her electric blue eye shadow?

The colour brings us right back to our teenage days long before we winged our eyeliner or filled in our brows, to when blue eye shadow and a bit of mascara was all we needed. 

Kim shared a step-by-step contouring guide on her Instagram account last night which is part of her collaboration with make-up artist, Mario Dedivanovic, or the founding father of contouring as some might say. 

We are set to see make-up tutorials to help us achieve that flawless finish on the upcoming website KimKardashianWest.com and we are really excited! 

The website will include some tricks of the trade and videos to help you apply your make-up just like Kim does. 

Kim who is pregnant with her second child, isn't the only one in the Kardashian/Jenner clan who is getting into the beauty website industry, her younger sister Kylie also told fans on Instagram "can't wait to release all my beauty secrest on KylieJenner.com coming soon"

 

can't wait to release all my beauty secrets on KylieJenner.com coming soon. Love this bright look by @makeupbyariel

Last Friday saw world famous boy band One Direction release their first single 'Drag Me Down' since Zayn Malik left the band. 

The 22-year-old left the band to pursue is own plans and he announced his new record label signing last week. 

We were all wondering whether Zayn would speak out about the new One Direction track or not, and we were so happy to see that he took the time to tweet the band saying he was proud of them. 

He said: "Proud of my boys the new single is sick. Big love. 🙂 x"

The One Direction song went straight to number one in the singles charts following it's release, which goes to show the band isn't suffering too much having lost a member.

While the band were getting ready to share their new music with the world, Zayn was busy signing a record deal with RCA records. He shared the news with a tweet, which some 1D followers were not happy with.

"I guess I never explained why I left, it was for this moment to be given the opportunity to show you who I really am! #realmusic #RCA"

So he's suggesting that One Direction isn't real music? Ouch..

Life would be a lot easier if we could understand what men are thinking sometimes, but this survey on what men find attractive in women has at least given us a glimpse into their thought process.

A lot of people might tend to think that physical appearance comes top of the list in terms of attractiveness, but it turns out this is not the case. 

According to a study conducted by match.com, macho men and dependant women are a thing of the pass, and we must say, we are happy to hear this. 

It has been found through this survey conducted by dating site match.com, which asked over 5,000 people, that men are seeking an intellectual and independent woman, with 87% of them saying they would like to date someone who is more intelligent than they are. 

Also up there on the list, is confidence. 86% of the men surveyed want a woman who is confident and self-assured and they said they would be ok with the woman asking them out on a date in stead of the other way around. 

But the most attractive trait, according to the survey and in our opinion too, is a good sense of humour. A huge 90% of men think a good sense of humour is just as important, if not more important, than physical attractiveness. 

So there you have it ladies, the way to a man's heart is just having the craic with him.

It hasn’t been a good week for Nicki Minaj and rapper Meek Mills.

In case you hadn’t heard; Meek Mills attempted to call out fellow rapper Drake on Twitter recently and it didn’t go very well. He accused Drake of not writing his own songs.

Drake’s huge fan base however were very quick to respond and they were ruthless about the whole scenario.

Meek Mills other half, Nicki, was also getting a lot of heat from social media users who were fast to drag the hip-hop star into the drama.  Which is all very awkward because Ms Minaj and Drake are pretty much celeb BFFs who have worked together successfully multiple times.

However, it looks like Meek is none to impressed with Nicki’s lack of response to the feud he now has with Drake, and Drake’s fans.

That is possibly why reports are now saying that Nicki has put an end to their relationship. Media TakeOut apparently spoke to Nicki’s close friend who said:

“It’s complicated. I think they took their relationship too far, too fast.”

While many of Nicki’s fans might be relieved to hear the news, we don’t think this is exactly the way Meek was hoping his week was going to end.

Oh dear, another tragic ending to another celebrity Twitter feud, when will it end?

Television presenter and one half of the comedy duo Ant and Dec, Declan Donnelly married his fiancé Ali Astall in Newcastle earlier today 

The pair were all smiles for the crowsds that gathered to wish them well as they emerged from St. Micheal's Roman Catholic Church in Elswick, Newcastle. 

They stepped out hand in hand and shared a romantic kiss beneath the church's arched doorway. The lavish flowers that decorated the arch were admired by the hundreds of fans that had come along to celebrate the couple's big day. 

39-year old Declan arrived at the ceremony in a very fancy Aston Matin Vanquish Carbon and was driven by best man Ant McPartlin. The pair were setting some serious BFF goals today as they wore matching suits to the big event. The bright blue colour went very nicely with their dark shades as the sun came out much to everyone's delight.

Ali, 36, is also Dec's manager. She arrived via Rolls Royce in a stunning ivory gown with an open back complimented with simple veil. She certainly turned heads in her beautiful dress as she stopped outside to give a wave to those waiting for a glimpse of the pair on their way into the ceremony. 

Dec's older brother Dermott officiated the ceremony, which took place in the same church that their grandfather Alphonsus' funeral took place in previously. 

Among those fans in the crowd were some that had travelled quite a long way hoping to spot some of the many celebs on their way to the ceremony. 65-year old Sheena Greeves travelled from Scotland and told The Mirror:

"I'm from Derry where his mammy and daddy are from. We came from Scotland, my grandson wants to be little Dec. We're big fans."

Other famous faces expected to be at the wedding today included Tess Daly, Vernon Kay, Fearne Cotton, Holly Willoughby, Leigh Francis, former Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts, Philip Schofield, Paddy McGuinness and Andi Peters. Quite the guest list!

Congratulations to the happy couple.

If you use social media at all these days you have more than likely come across a few common trends. It’s very easy to jump on the bandwagon, we’re probably all a little guilty of one or more (or all) of these little quirks.

You have to admit that are a couple of these trends, mostly found crowding our Instagram feeds that might just bit a touch overdone.

These were just some of the trends that we think could everyone could take a break from every now and then.

The less-than stellar foodie snap.
We would actually prefer to see your sock collection again instead of another box of detox teas, thanks.

The 'candid' moment
Do you have a triple jointed wrist or does your iced latte actually levitate? Amazing.

The selfies
We love when people are confident and not afraid to show it, but we wouldn't mind seeing your actual outfit instead of 60 different versions of your contouring. 

The legs POV photos
So you went to the Bahamas? It's hard to know when your sunkissed knees are taking up most of the frame…

Collages
We want to see all your excellent style we really do, but when you make a collage with 7 or more images that means we have to zoom. Instagram does not have a zoom feature!

Remember when Amber Rose took on Khloé Kardashian earlier this year in a now infamous twitter feud?

Well, on the most recent episode of the Perez Hilton Podcast Amber revealed more about the battle between her and the super-famous Kardashian clan.

Amber said: “I feel like everything was extremely misunderstood.” She claims she wasn’t “cming at Kylie” after all. In fact, it was Tyga she was challenging.

“I was coming at Tyga on behalf of my best friend, Blac Chyna.” Well, we don’t think it would have gone down too well with the famous family either way, they do tend to stick together when things get tough.

Amber went on to explain:

“For me to say, 'Yeah, she should probably go to bed,' maybe was in poor taste and I understand but I feel like that should have been more of a phone call that Khloé could've had with me. “

We understand where she’s coming from there. Often times the back and forth texting gets people nowhere when making plans and you just have to pick up the phone.

Important question: Does Amber actually have Khloé’s number and if so why did she not make that call months ago?

Which also reminds us that this happened quite some time ago, so why bring it up again? Well, in Khloé’s Complex magazine interview she was asked about her feud with Amber.

She said she felt it was “unnecessary for her to say anything” about Kylie’s relationship with Tyga.

"She was giving an opinion on Chyna and Tyga that has nothing to do with her."

Despite that, Amber has admitted that she does think Khloé is pretty “cool” and that she admires her personality. She also noted she understood where Khloé was coming from trying to protect her younger sister.

"I feel like it escalated to the point where it shouldn't have gotten that far…It really wasn't about them." 

So does this mean Khloé and Amber might be the newest celebrities to form an all-girl squad? We shall wait and see.

Might be a bit awkard though, considering Amber is a former flame of brother-in-law Kanye West.

Uh-oh, it looks like Snoop Dogg has got himself into a bit of trouble with Italian police.

The rapper was apparently stopped by financial police in southern Italy while he was carrying almost €400,000 in cash.

That is nearly 40 times the amount you can take over the border without declaring it to Custom officials.

Snoop is currently touring Europe following the release of his album Bush. His lawyer Andrea Parisi said that he will have to pay a fine, report The Guardian. Parisi then told the press this weekend:

“The money came from concerts he had performed around Europe. There was no crime; it was just an administrative infraction.”

Snoop, real name Calvin Broadus , was given back half of the money while the other half was being held by authorities in Italy. They will keep it until the amount of the fine due to be paid is decided on, Snoop’s lawyer explained.

This isn’t the first during his recent tour this he has had some run-ins with the law. Only last week while in Sweden he claimed he had been racial profiled by authorities when they stopped him on suspicions of drug use.

The rapper was questioned and tested for suspected drug use, but the results will not be available for some time.

Back in 2012 he got himself banned from entering Norway for two years after he was found in possession with 8 grams of marijuana.

We knew there was someone missing from the crowds at Guy Ritchie’s wedding this week.

While her husband Brad Pitt partied the night away with some famous pals, including David Beckham, Sting and Claudia Schiffer, Angelina Jolie had other matters to attend to.

The Oscar-winning actress was in Burma on a four-day trip with Aung San Suu Kyi.

She joined the country’s opposition leader and democracy campaigner to visit workers in the country who are forced to be employed in horrific conditions.

Angelina met factory workers, most of whom are women, at an industrial zone on the outskirts of Burma’s largest city. The pair witnessed first-hand how the women work and live and also toured inside the factory.

Earlier this week Angelina, who is a special envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, travelled to Kachin state. This has become home to tens of thousands of displaced people since the ceasefire between Burma’s government and rebel fighters broke down in 2011.

This is her first visit to the country which has only recently been released from military rule.

While Angelina was busy in South-East Asia, husband Brad enjoyed a night with friends at the star-studded bash to celebrate Guy and Jacqui’s wedding.

Earlier this week a source had told The Mirror: “The guest list is jaw-dropping. It’s like the Oscars. If even half of them come, it will be the party of the year.”

It certainly looked it! We nearly lost track of all the celebs spotted at the festival-themed nuptials.
