Allow us to introduce you to Otto.

Otto is a bulldog who has some serious skills. Not content with mastering the usual ‘sit’ and ‘stay’ like his canine peers, Otto considers himself more of an adventurer. 

He broke a Guinness World Record yesterday when he skateboarded through the legs of 30 people in Peru.

Otto is not the only one trying to break a record today. Guinness World Records Day celebrates a 12 year anniversary today. Some of the records attempted include the fastest 100m run on all fours and the biggest gathering of people dressed as penguins. 

While these both sound highly entertaining, we are pretty certain that Otto’s video is probably the most adorable we have seen in a while.

If you think it's cold here, spare a thought for poor David Beckham. 

The retired footballer is currently making his way through seven matches on all seven continents – and his latest match took place in Antarctica. 

David is taking part in the challenge as part of his duties as Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, and he's been keeping his loyal fans updated on his journey via Instagram. 

Yesterday he shared a snap of him getting ready for the football match in the icy weather. He sure looks cosy though, wrapped in a big red coat and hat.

The 40-year-old captioned his picture: "Just marked the pitch out … Anyone see the corner flag behind me?? game 5 Antarctica WOW no words !!!!"

He later posted another photo, capturing the stunning backdrop of where his match took place.

David's journey has already seen him play games in Nepal and Papua New Guinea. 

He was also seen taking time out of his UNICEF duties to play with the children of the shantytowns he visited. 

Speaking of his epic challenge, Mr Beckham told the BBC, "I remember sitting on a plane and discussing this idea with friends and never thinking it would become a reality."

She's had a long-term relationship with Nicholas Hoult and an on-off fling with Chris Martin, but lately Jennifer Lawrence has been very single indeed.

The actress admitted to Vogue this week that her sex life is far from exciting – in fact, it's been pretty non-existent.

"No one ever asks me out," Jennifer laments during a tour of her apartment for the magazine.

"I am lonely every Saturday night. Guys are so mean to me. I know where it's coming from, I know they're trying to establish dominance, but it hurts my feelings."

As for her bed, the actress jokingly refers to it as "where the magic happens," before getting honest: "Literally zero magic has happened in here. Cheers to my hymen growing back!" 

Ah. Thanks for clearing that up, Jen.

The Oscar-winning star says her high-profile status has been a huge barrier in getting to meet men who are genuinely interested in her.

"I'm just a girl who wants you to be nice to me," she says of her perfect man.

"I am straight as an arrow. I feel like I need to meet a guy, with all due respect, who has been living in Baghdad for five years who has no idea who I am."

Speaking about former boyfriends who didn't make the cut, Jen refers to one man who, although he was "sexy," was also full of mind games.

"I didn't like how he made me feel," she admits.

"When someone makes you insecure, it's strangely exhilarating because you keep trying to fight for that validation."

After splitting from her X-Men co-star Nicholas Hoult last year, J-Law began dating Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.

Although the pair were spotted on various dates over a nine-month period, things have since cooled off, and Chris is now dating actress Anabelle Wallis.

Hopefully Jen's future man is en route back Baghdad as we speak…

As we all know in Ireland, tea time is ALL the time. Drinking tea is something we all just can't get enough of.

But now, the rest of Europe is catching onto our love affair, as new Dutch guidelines are encouraging people to drink tea regularly.

The guidelines from The Health Council of the Netherlands, has advised people to drink up to five cups of tea a day. Hallelujah! 

The advice only applies to green tea or regular tea though (which is totally fine with us), and not other herbal options. 

They have already implemented the new guidelines into many Dutch schools, with children as young as four being encouraged to enjoy a cup of milky tea at lunchtime. 

“We noted that in the scientific literature in the last 10 years, there are clear signs that drinking tea is good for your health,” Eert Schoten, a spokesman for the health council, tells The Telegraph.

“Three to five cups a day reduces blood pressure, diabetes and stroke risks, so this comes as one of our 16 guidelines,” he says.

Tim Bond, from the Tea Advisory Panel says that the guidelines are the same as what he would recommend: “A number of recent studies looking at long term drinking habits have indicated that three to five cups of tea are associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.”

We already knew that green tea was good for us and can help protect against various illnesses, but we didn't realise that our love for Barry's or our taste for Lyon's would be providing us with hidden health benefits too.

Going to pop the kettle on? Yep, us too!

Cheryl and her French businessman husband Jean-Bernard have been married for less than two years, but their relationship has been under intense scrutiny from the beginning.

The pair have battled their fair share of separation rumours in the 16 months since they wed. Now, it looks like Jean-Bernard has had enough. 

He addressed speculation that the two are headed for a split because of the huge amounts of time they spend apart.

The 32-year old X Factor judge has been open about her hectic schedule they is keeping her on the road and apart from her husband.

Yesterday he took to social media and blasted those who make claims that they are heading for a separation. According to The Mirror, he has been away on business in France and Dubai and explained his absence on Instagram. 

“Yes I am working like everybody else to put food on the table but my priority is my wife as this is the last person that is family.”

He also wrote that he was “always going to be there” for is wife and that “even when my dad died I put my life on the line for my wife.”

“This is just nonsense. What matters is family and my wife is my only one left so if she need me I am always going to be there. My wife Cheryl is my priority nothing else.” 

Speculation about their duo’s marriage was sent into overdrive when it was noted that Cheryl had skipped her husband’s birthday celebrations in August.

He instead opted to spend his night partying until the wee hours with his friends.

This is not the first time that Cheryl's hubby has felt the need to defend their marriage. While he says he doesn't often comment on stories about them in the media, he did leave an interesting comment on a video posted by Nick Grimshaw. 

​

While it was quickly deleted, that didn't stop social media users from branding him posessive and rude. "Your comments on here earlier were pathetic. Did you delete them because you realised how stupid and unwanted they were too," commented one user.

In the age of the modern woman, sometimes it can be really REALLY hard to find people who truly understand our daily first world problems.

Anyone who says brunch is a 'want' and not a 'need' needs to seriously re-examine their life choices, tbh.

Luckily for us, Honest NYC Barbie has our back and here’s why…

Barbie knows the outrageous cost of trying to eat healthily

We love a homegrown hero and up and coming modelling sensation Stella Maxwell is no exception.

Looking phenomenal as a Victoria's Secret Angel, she has officially become our latest girl crush. But who is she, where did she come from and most importantly how can we have her life?! 

1. She has Irish in her blood
Though Stella grew up in many different parts of the globe, she was born to Northern Irish parents. Her parents are both Belfast natives which means we are officially claiming her as Irish. 

 

2. She has lived all over the world 
The leggy blonde spent her early years in Belgium before moving to New Zealand with her Dad being a successful diplomat. She now casually manages to split her time between LA and NYC. Jealous does not even begin to cover it!

 

3. She dated Miley
Even with her modelling credentials, Stella came to everyone's attention when it was reported she was dating none other than Miley Cyrus earlier this year.

Having met through mutual friends, the pair were caught passionately kissing and even though it looks like the fling may have ended, it caused a pretty big sensation. Let’s just say we cannot wait to see who Stella dates next.

 

4. She is a Victoria's Secret Angel
Stella walked the 2014 Victoria's Secret show and officially became an Angel in 2015. She wore her wings for the first time on this week's show, which took place on Tuesday, and she looked amazing. 

 

5. She's a catwalk veteran
Though she was thrust into the limelight for being a Victoria's Secret model and her rendezvous with Miley, Stella is a seasoned model and has walked many catwalk shows in her short career.

Big names she has worked for include Marc Jacobs and Moschino. 

 

6. She has a seriously enviable squad
Apart from being effortlessly trendy, Stella Gigi Hadid amongst her BFFs, and lives in New York with her best pal and fellow model Barbara Palvin. She gives us a serious case of #squadgoals.

 

7. She takes androgynous to a new level
Beginning her career with a short, peroxide blonde pixie cut, Stella propelled herself into the fashion industry by being able to create a variety of versatile looks.

She's gorgeous, but we must admit she would make a pretty cute boy 

 

8. She’s a musician
Stella recently told V Magazine that she has finished up an album with friends in New York. Watch this space…

 

9. She dropped out of university
Before her modelling career took off, Stella studied in the University of Otago in New Zealand where she studied Psychology for one year. She left college in favour of her modelling career. Can you blame her?

Lottie Tomlinson – little sister of Louis – caught our eye last week when she debuted some amazing day-glo coloured roots on Instagram.

And while we love the edgy look, sometimes it's just not kosher to dye your roots six different colours.

For an out-there look that won't last weeks, we're seriously considering giving glitter roots a go.

The look, which involves mixing clear styling gel with glitter and applying it along the line of your parting, has already taken over the internet, and we can see why.

If you have dark hair, try a brightly contrasting shade of glitter:

And what better way to jazz up your dark roots?

The glitter can be applied "by using an old foundation brush or even simply using your fingers," hair stylist Karen Wiggins tells TODAY.

Of course, we don't recommend just flinging a load of glitter on your head and hoping for the best:

 

When you jump on the #glitterroots trend way too fast #glitter #hair #sparklyroots

There is one problem with the look, however. While glitter roots are definitely a total show-stopper, we can't imagine that cleaning all those sparkly flecks out of your hair would be too pleasant.

Glitter in your hair, glitter on your pillowcase, glitter in the shower… this is one hair trend that definitely has a few occupational hazards.

He dropped out of school at 16 to focus on his music career, but that doesn't mean Ed Sheeran isn't going to get the full college experience.

The singer spent an evening mastering the delicate art of beer pong at Duke University in North Carolina this week… and documented the whole night on Snapchat.

Ed was in the college town of Chapel Hill to spend some quality time with his rumoured new girlfriend, Cherry Seaborn (sorry ladies).

The old friends met at Thomas High School in Suffolk in their teens, and reconnected on Twitter earlier this year. Cherry now lives in the US full-time while working for Deloitte in New York, after graduating with a Management Studies Master's Degree from Duke last year.

The Suffolk-born beauty is also a champion field hockey player, who has played for Duke's Blue Devils and also for the English Under-21 team.

Ed and Cherry first sparked rumours of a romance last month when they were spotted together at a baseball game in New York, and after making the pilgrimage to North Carolina with her, we reckon the singer is 100% smitten.

Ed and his rumoured flame returned to Cherry's alma mater for a night of boozing and beer pong-ing – though he's definitely not the most skilled player we've ever seen. 

Needless to say, the entire population of Duke University had a meltdown after hearing the Thinking Out Loud singer was on campus:

After their party, the couple headed to a nearby bar and back to a USC frat house, before grabbing some fast food on campus at 3am… as you do.

He might be an Oscar-nominated actor with a string of model girlfriends these days, but rewind ten years and Michael Fassbender wasn't quite so widely known.

Two years before 300 and four before Hunger, the Kerry native was making a name for himself as "the fella who jumped into the sea" in a VERY well-known Guinness ad.

It's been 11 years since the ad was released on Irish TV, but it popped up on Reddit this week and gave us all a serious dose of nostalgia.

In case you don't recall Michael's Guinness debut, he has an argument with his bestie and decides he needs to make his way to New York to say he's sorry (and buy him a round).

The Cliffs of Moher, Times Square and even that road ball sculpture on the Naas Rd all feature, set to the soundtrack of that oh-so Irish pop song, Mic Christopher's Heyday.

Watch it and prepare to feel a lot of love for Ireland and its most attractive export… we're talking about Guinness, of course.

If we could choose any celebrity to come over and organise our house (and generally be our BFF), it'd be Khloé Kardashian.

The reality star is known for her obsessive tendencies when it comes to cleaning and decorating.

Indeed, earlier this year she racked up hundreds of thousands of views on a video detailing how to re-create the perfectly stacked cookie jars seen in her kitchen on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Now, Khloé has let us into her kitchen again, but this time it's for a root around her fridge. Like a mini-episode of MTV Cribs...

The video, which Khloé teased on Twitter last night with a link to her app, shows the 31-year-old's perfectly ordered refrigerator, filled with everything from nine sticks of butter and five jars of pickles to detox lemon water and chopped fruit.

But of all the snacks and food, there's one thing we're really coveting – Khloé's designated "bacon holder," to keep those rashers fresh.

Amazing.

The youngest Kardashian sister also gives viewers a few tips on how to arrange their fridge according to how cold things need to be.

"The top shelf is normally used for drinks because the top shelf is where it gets warmest," she says, showing off a shelf full of almond milk ("I don't drink regular milk any more"), Snapple, Gatorade and sparkling water ("I don’t drink Pellegrino and Perrier, but my nieces and nephews do").

Despite her packed fridge, the KUWTK star has become a lot more restrained and mindful in terms of what she eats.

"I was a mindless eater,” says of her younger years in her new book, Strong Looks Better Naked.

"I ate for comfort. I also ate out of boredom and habit. I ate when I was unhappy (which I’m sure many of you can relate to).

"I even ate chips because I love the crunchy sound they make. And I didn’t give much thought to what I was eating, or what I was putting inside my body."

Nowadays, Khloé makes fresh veg, lean protein and water key parts of her diet… but we're still not sure how she resists eating the contents of that bacon holder…

Just weeks after totally trolling the internet with a fake snap of her wedding dress, Whitney Port has come up trumps with the real deal.

The reality star wed her banker boyfriend Tim Rosenman in a Palm Springs ceremony on Saturday, November 7, and the first snap of her beautiful dress has just made it online.

Whitney posed for her first official wedding snap in a sandy garden area near her wedding venue, and proved that her dress was certainly worth the wait.

The custom-made gown with its waterfall hemline and flowing train was a collaborative creation with Muhammed Ashi of Beirut-based Ashi Studio.

"At the start, Whitney saw a dress from the latest couture collection and she got inspired for an idea for her wedding dress,” the designer tells Us Weekly. “It was inspired by a vintage chandelier from Venice and Florence."

The dress's lace and silver embroidery was decorated with tiny off-white pearls, applied using a beading technique called Zardozi. 

Aside from a stunning pair of white flower-embellished stilettos, Whitney kept her accessories simple, opting for a pair of gold, pearl and diamond earrings belonging to her mother-in-law. That's definitely an expensive "something borrowed"…

Even Whitney's new husband was blown away by the stunning dress, saying he had no idea what to expect. 

"There was so much buildup to what her dress was going to look like because we kept it secret," he said. 

"I didn’t think it could possibly match the buildup, but I was blown away. She looked fantastic."

We cannot WAIT to see more pictures of the big day.
