A woman on her bicycle and an articulated lorry collided near Ranelagh in Dublin a little after 12 noon today; the cyclist is now in at St James's Hospital with serious leg injuries. 

A large Garda presence remained for some time at the scene at Grand Parade Bridge, which was for several hours cornered off and preserved so that a technical and forensic examination could take place. The road has since been reopened to traffic.

It is believed that the 39-year-old woman was conscious when paramedics and the Dublin Fire Brigade arrived to treat her.

Her bike was completely crushed in the incident.

Although her injuries are serious, they are not thought to be life-threatening. 

An Garda Síochána this evening told SHEmazing in a statement: "Shortly after midday a female cyclist aged in her late 30s was seriously injured when she was struck by an articulated lorry at the junction of Grand Parade and Ranelagh Road. 

"The cyclist was treated at the scene by emergency services personnel and removed by ambulance to St James’s Hospital. Her injuries are understood to be serious."

Thankfully, no one else – including the driver of the lorry – was injured.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Donnybrook Garda Station 01 666 9200 or the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111.

If you were excited to see The Weeknd perform alongside Rihanna, then you're going to be sorely disappionted.

The singer has unexpectedly pulled out of the world-wide tour due to "unforeseen" circumstances.

A statement from music website Live Nation reads: "Due to some unforeseen changes with upcoming projects, The Weeknd will no longer be joining Rihanna on her upcoming international Anti World Tour."

Whatever the changes are, who knows, but they must be pretty big if he's cancelled at the last minute. What could be more important than travelling around with RiRi?!

While we all love a good video of someone falling over, this girl's epic fall in a UK nightclub this week is on another level and quickly going viral. 

Caught on CCTV at Level Nightclub in Bolton, Olivia Wood managed a mean feat in falling over drunk; she did it with grace and effortless style. 

Posted on Level's Facebook page as Fall of the Week, the footage shows Olivia trip on the stairs before turning her fall into a graceful swan dive. 

Now THAT is how it is done. 

"I was tipsy but not wasted and just misread the step situation," said Olivia to Metro. 

"My friend had just told me to 'watch the steps as they are quite steep' and I just turned and said 'I know', and then completely flew!"

And it's clear that this girl knows that if you're going to fall, you better do it with style. 

"I just remember holding my breath the whole way down and saying to the woman who helped me up 'I felt like superman then!'

"Then I just got up, laughed and went and got a well earned shot! I just have a bruised leg thankfully but I still had a great night!"

We're giving major props to Olivia today.

The English language serves its purpose pretty well most of the time, but every so often we stumble upon a Danish, French or Japanese word that just simplifies everything.

Take "the day after tomorrow," for example. If you were speaking Georgian, you'd simply call it "zeg." Or that happy half hour after a relaxing meal spent chatting round the table over your empty plates? In Spain, that's the "sobremesa."

If you're considering updating your vocab pool with a few new additions, throw away that English dictionary and look to the rest of the world for inspiration. Here are a few of our faves…

He may have solidified a solo career with the success of his debut single, Pillowtalk, but it seems that Zayn has tried to retain a connection with his former bandmates. 

However, according to the 23-year-old, they are having none of it. 

Speaking to NME magazine, Zayn sadly revealed that he only keeps in touch with one member of 1D. 

"I'm still probably the closest to Liam. We talk on the phone.

"He congratulated me on my single, which was nice. I congratulated him on his Brit Award.

"It was a good chat. We haven't met up in a long time so we want to meet up."

But things still seem to be icy between Zayn and the rest of the group; Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles. 

"I tried to have contact but nobody's reached out. So… whatever."

Things may not have cooled off between the lads after Zayn simply upped and left without warning during their 2015 tour. 

Speaking about the incident, the singer revealed he just ordered a private plane and told his team that he was out. 

"I want[ed] to go home," said the star honestly. 

"I don't know how I knew, but I just did. So I chatted with my cousin. Listened to a few songs. Just waited for my plane to come."

However, Zayn is set to take the charts by storm as his debut album, Mind of Mine, is out on Friday.

A few months ago, Nadine Coyle appeared on This Morning sporting a very orange face – and now it seems Holly Willoughby has fallen into the trap, too.

Fans were taken aback when the presenter shared a photo of her outfit on Instagram, with many commenting that Holls usually looks perfect, but this morning she needed to sack the make-up artist.

One user commented, “Someone at ITV has been heavy handed with the spray tan gun!" while another one chipped in, "What's with the orange face? Normally immaculate Holly.”

Knowing Holly though, she won't pay attention to the haters and just go on with her day. It's hard to look perfect ALL the time, right?

Considering the success of Channing Tatum, it is easy to forget that the hunky actor is also a trained dancer. 

He did, after all, meet his super-talented wife Jenna Dewan on the set of Step Up. 

So perhaps it was only a matter of time before this duo got their own dancing television series. 

Yep, the gorgeous couple are set to produce and star in a dance competition show that has been picked up by NBC. 

While we would have been totally on-board with a Tatum-Dewan reality series, we reckon this style of show will work even better for the talented pair. 

Jenna is set to be the executive producer of the series as well as appearing as a judge. Meanwhile, Channing is currently set to produce but insiders have said that the actor will also appear on the show at least once. 

And those odds are good enough for us. 

And if the couple's appearance on Lip Sync Battle is anything to go by, we reckon this show is going to be phenomenal. 

The couple married in 2009 and have one 2-year-old daughter together named Everly.

If you have ever been lucky enough to be embroiled in a late night pub lock-in in Ireland, then you will know that they are amazing craic and should be regarded as cultural phenomenons. 

They are also one of those Irish things that you forget not everyone in the world actually knows what they are. 

So when Jimmy Fallon essentially described being involved in a lock-in in Kinsale to Saoirse Ronan, she totally knew what he was on about. 

However, when she explained the concept out loud, it did actually sound a bit mad. 

"The whole idea of a lock-in was that the guards- our policemen- wouldn't know about it," the 21-year-old very aptly explained. 

"But they're usually in the lock-ins as well. They're usually in there with you.

"I've grown up with that really."

Our favourite Southern belle Reese Witherspoon turned the ripe old age of 40 yesterday, which you’ll have been made well aware of if you follow the actress on social media.

The Oscar winner rallied an impressive list of famous buddies to celebrate her landmark birthday, with Matthew McConaughey, Taylor Swift Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman and Kate Hudson all showing up to wish the birthday girl well – and, in Taylor’s case, even give an impromptu live singing performance.  

Dressed in a purple sequin mini dress for the occasion, Reese didn’t look anywhere near her 40 years, but of course she’s not the only famous name to be defying the laws of gravity.

Here are just a few of the stars who are totally working that ‘40-going-on-21’ look…

Gabrielle Union, 43

From pom-poms to news reports, Gabrielle Union looks the same now on BETs Being Mary Jane as she did on the 1999 CLASSIC Bring It On.

Gwen Stefani, 46

Having moved on from her divorce last year to new man Blake Shelton, Gwen sure is showing her ex what he’s missing.

Sandra Bullock, 51

Standing strong as one of Hollywood’s highest-paid actresses, Sandra has been playing characters in their thirties for the last ten years.

Ellen Degeneres, 58

WHAT!? Just, WHAT!?

Meryl Streep, 66

Having famously been told she was too ugly for King Kong, Meryl sure showed them.

Goldie Hawn, 70

A woman that proves, if a hairstyle ain’t broke…

Jane Fonda, 78

Miss Anti-Ageing herself shows us all who’s boss.

Though Taylor Swift and her buddies may be our definition of #squadgoals, not everyone feels the same away about being a member of the exclusive group. 

And one person who has no desire to join in on the girl-fun is outspoken actress, Chloe Grace Moretz. 

In an interview with Complex magazine, the 19-year-old revealed that she had recently turned down an invitation to join forces with Tay and her minions. 

"They appropriate exclusivity. They're cliques!" said the star. 

Being friends with Selena Gomez, the actress had been introduced to the Bad Blood singer and even invited to hang-out with the squad but she politely declined. 

The star refused to say anything else about Taylor and her expertly crafted squad. simply ending the topic with: "She's a very talented person." 

Ooh, do we detect a bit of shade? 

The young Kick Ass actress is getting a name for herself by being unafraid to speak her mind, even if it lands her in hot water. 

Most recently, Chloe called out Kim Kardashian for publishing her now infamous naked selfie, encouraging her to not teach girls that their only value lies in their bodies. 

However, Kim retaliated and a lot of celebrities got in on the action too. Despite receiving quite a bit of backlash, we have a lot of respect for Chloe who is obviously going to continue to speak her mind regardless.

Is it just us or do you feel like a five-year-old when it comes to wearing white jeans?

Between spilling your morning coffee on them, the soup you had for lunch and the red wine you had with dinner, white jeans can just become a big mess by the end of the day.

But, fear not because we have come across a brand that are selling STAIN RESISTANT white jeans. HURRAH!

Old Navy is an American brand and with their new Rockstar Super Skinny Jeans you can wipe just about anything off them.

At first we feared they didn't ship to Ireland, but happily for us they do. They are also sold in Gap store across the world.

Now, we can keep calm and carry on acting like five-year-olds everyday.

If you have skin that’s any way fair, you’ve probably grown up with a whole set of “rules” to live by.

No pastels, no white clothes and most DEFINITELY no darker hair colours. They’ll just wash you out… at least that’s what your mam’s always drilled into you, right?

Well, you can throw those beliefs out the window because lately we’ve been getting serious hair lust for celebs rocking darker, deeper shades – everything from intense black like Suzanne Jackson to coffee brown like MIC‘s Lucy Watson.

Of course, the spectrum of darker colours ranges far and wide, and it’s all about choosing a shade that suits your skintone and your own personal style. Here are some of the celebs giving us serious dark hair #goals of late.

Suzanne Jackson

Blogger and beauty guru Suzanne, the woman at the helm of SoSueMe and SOSU cosmetics, has always gone for darker tones – but with a hint of warm brunette to ensure her paler skin is complemented.

That length and volume comes courtesy of Gold Fever hair extensions (the brainchild of fellow Irish woman Katie-Jane Goldin), of which Suzanne’s been a long-time fan. With a blend of different colours used to create the perfect shade, there’s no fear of looking washed out.

Shauna Lindsay

Another Gold Fever fan, model Shauna Lindsay is the perfect example of how to work darker tones without risking looking like Wednesday Addams the second you take your make-up off.

Her darker roots are complemented perfectly by lighter blonde-brown ends, courtesy of 20′ Gold Fever extensions, which gave some much-needed volume and an all over healthy look.

“My hair was so damaged, generally from doing fashion shows and having heat on it all the time,” Shauna says.

“I love being a model don’t get me wrong but your hair goes through a lot! My hair was NOWHERE NEAR as thick as it used to be and I longed for an extra bit of length. The extensions I got put in are 20′ and they are SO FULL,” she explains.

Lucy Watson

Granted, Made In Chelsea alum Lucy usually sets off her deep brown wavy tresses with a tan, but that doesn’t mean we can’t follow her for some hair inspiration.

Lucy keeps her hair relatively short, using extensions to add volume rather than heaps of length. The warm brown hue is perfect with her paler skin – though we reckon it would be a winner with any skin tone.

Considering changing up your style á la Lucy, Suzanne and Shauna? Check out Gold Fever‘s Instagram page for some hair #inspo. Thank us later!
