While most of us are easy breezy about the fact that rapping and swear words generally go hand-in-hand, it looks like some places have no intention of accepting it as poor ol' 50 Cent recently found out.

On Saturday night following a performance on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts, the rapper, who rose to fame in the early noughties, was arrested for…wait for it…swearing.

Having agreed to simply host the festival, the rapper was then encouraged to perform, and that's when, according to the star's representative, the F-bombs were officially dropped.

And it turns out officials in St. Kitts were far from impressed with the rapper's potty mouth, and charged him with the misdemeanour offence which prohibits the use of profane words in public places.

According to Sky News, the In Da Club rapper and his entourage were detained for using 'indecent language' during the St. Kitts Music Festival, and were promptly fined before returning to the US the following day where we've no doubt Fiddy swore 'til he was blue in the face.

Know your audience next time, Mr. Jackson!

They only married a year ago – but Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan have recently had to fight off rumours of a split.

Speculation began when Michelle, 29, moved to South Africa for work – and more recently Mr Wright jetted off to Las Vegas for a lads holiday.

That and on occasion Michelle has been seen without her wedding ring.

Now, 29-year-old Mr Wright has taken to Instagram to reiterate that all is well in his marriage. The Towie star posted an image of a delicious looking BLT, leading us all to believe that the couple are still very much together, for lunch at least. 

“The missus don't mess about when it comes to BLTs…” he wrote to his 1.2m followers on the social media platform.

Mark’s sister, fellow Towie star Jessica, spoke to The Sun recently about her brother’s relationship, stating "it’s awful for them but they have to rise above it and they do. I feel so bad for them because you don’t want to have negative vibes around your relationship."

As firm believers in true love, Mark and Michelle, we’re rooting for you! Here’s to many more BLTs in your future.

Chantelle Connelly is barely out the door of the Geordie Shore house and she's already throwing some serious shade at her former housemates.

On Friday the news broke that the 26-year-old reality star had quit the MTV hit show as she chatted online about catching a flight when she was supposed to be filming in Kavos with the rest of the cast.

Now the former exotic dancer has taken to Twitter clarify why she left and – in true Geordie Shore fashion – stir some serious drama in the process.

Along with a picture of her and her on-off boyfriend Tommy Sayers, Chantelle tweeted: “Let’s jus say I couldn’t live with 2 faced snakes…would rather be with the love of my life any day!” [sic].

The tweet was quickly followed by: “Fame and money isn’t everything….Health and happiness is!!!”

The Twitter rant continued later in the day as the Geordie threatened to reveal what goes on when the cameras aren’t rolling.

"Can't wait to tell it how it really is!!! You's don't have a Fkn clue! Well I'm about to tell all #keep #it #real you's will be surprised."

"Ppl have to much to say yet they don't no the facts!!! Well I do just wait till I let it all out what actual happens not what u watch!" [sic].

And the first wrong Chantelle wants to put right?  Her on-screen virginity.

She wrote: "Never slept with anyone EVER on the show."

Good to know girl.  Thanks!

If you're the queen of the car to bar shoe, then you'll be used to justifying yourself when it comes to your choice of footwear.

From insisting that plasters are simply part of your look to claiming you can barely notice the blood pooling around your heels, die-hard shoe gals will remain steadfast in their decision to endure hours of torture in order to rock that perfect pump or sky-high heel.

Thankfully, however, it looks like the years of agony may have now come to an end following the creation of a spray which will prevent our tooties against the dreaded blister-fest so many of us have come to now know and accept.

PreHeels spray, which was invented by Dana Ward and Adam Kolom, will reportedly put an end to our pain by creating a "strong, lasting, invisible barrier on the skin to protect your feet from irritation and blisters".

According to Cosmo, the spray comes in clear form and dries in approximately 60 seconds – less time than it takes to find and apply a plaster while balancing a tray of pints, right?

The spray, which we're pretty sure will be a new handbag staple, rose to prominence through Kickstarter, and has received some pretty sweet reviews so far.

Ladies, the future is now.

​​​​​Gardaí in the capital are appealing for witnesses following an assault on a man in Dame Lane on Saturday night.

The victim, who had attended Dublin's Gay Pride parade earlier that day, was leaving a pub when he encountered his attacker who knocked him to the ground with a single blow.

Having been rushed to St. James Hospital by ambulance, the man, who sustained serious head injuries, was then, according to The Independent, transferred to Beaumont Hospital to receive further treatment.

The victim, who is understood to be in his late 30s, was initially in a critical condition but has since improved, and is expected to make a full recovery. 

Gardaí are currently following various lines of enquiry and have not ruled out the possibility that it was a homophobic attack.

It is understood that a potential suspect has been sought for questioning last night.

Anyone with any information pertaining to the case has been urged to contact Pearse Street Garda Station on 01 666 9000.

Haters united against Teen Mom OG’s Farrah Abraham yesterday after she posted a modelling shot of her 7-year-old daughter Sophia in a bikini and makeup to her Instagram account.

Farrah’s followers were not at all happy with the photo and quickly began commenting that Sophia – who was pictured wearing a full face of makeup including pink lipstick and a smoky eye – is too young to be posing in such an adult way.

Commenting on the close-up of the seven-year-old, @esme_masias wrote: “This poor little girl will never know what being a child is…At such a young age you're already making her out to be older than she is…leave this cr*p alone and let her be a child!”

 

And @piggle_box said: “This disturbs me…all of it…there's major denial if you don't see the obvious tone, poor girl.”

This isn’t the first time Farrah has been questioned for treating her daughter like a teenager.

In 2013 the reality star – who recently sold her LA apartment for just under $900,000 – made headlines when she waxed then three-year-old Sophia’s eyebrows.

Just weeks after tying the knot during an intimate ceremony in Barbados earlier this year, Kimberley Walsh and long-term partner, Justin Scott, discovered they were expecting their second child together.

And while the couple were understandably over the moon to be adding to their family, it seems like Kimberley had a tough time keeping the big news from her BFF and former bandmate, Cheryl.

Like most of us who can't keep a secret from a mate for longer than five minutes, Kimberley admitted that the moment Cheryl visited the newlyweds, she had to spill the deets.

"When Cheryl came over to visit, I couldn't keep my pregnancy a secret any longer," the Bradford-native admitted during an exclusive interview with Hello! magazine.

"She was so happy for us and thinks it's great to keep our family growing and that there will be a small age gap between Bobby and the new baby," the 34-year-old star said while chatting about the family's changing dynamic.

Kimberley explained that despite not having taken a test, something told her the family would be expecting a new arrival, saying: "Before I had even taken a test, I knew it instinctively."

"I wasn't suffering from morning sickness but telltale changes in my body made me certain I was expecting," she continued. "When I took a home test early one morning to make sure, it confirmed what I'd already sensed."

"I was thrilled," she gushed. "The first thing I did was to wake up Justin and tell him, 'You're going to be a daddy again!'"

Aw congrats, guys!

While most people try to keep their relationship drama away from prying eyes, Ariel Winter decided to take the opposite approach when she revealed her newfound single status over the weekend.

Following weeks of speculation, the Modern Family star used multiple forms of social media to confirm she and on-off boyfriend Laurent Gaudette have officially ended their two year relationship.

Using a Kim Kardashian gif captioned “I’m like dropping hints that I’m single”, the actress wrote on Twitter: “When you’re surprised that people just haven’t got it yet…”

 

She then posted a picture of her tweet to Instagram captioned “Hi there press people” – obviously suggesting the media had yet to cop her newly single status.

According to the Daily Mail, rumours of a break-up began to circulate after Ariel and Laurent unfollowed each other on social media and the teen star attended her prom alone.

In December Ariel also used a gif to announce she had split with Laurent, just two months after celebrating their two-year anniversary.

But by March the pair were definitely back on and just two months ago they attended Coachella as an item.

Ariel – who recently celebrated her high school graduation with a controversial pic – doesn’t seem to be too upset over her breakup as she took to Instagram yesterday to celebrate reaching 2 million followers with a picture of her in a bikini driving a boat.

We could certainly think of worse ways to get over a breakup.

Singer Demi Lovato has opened up about her past struggles with alcohol, drugs and body image in a new revealing interview with US in-flight magazine American Way.

The Cool for the Summer performer – who first checked into rehab when she was just 18-years-old – told the mag she thought she’d be dead before ever reaching her 21st birthday.

The star said:  “I lived fast and I was going to die young.”

“I didn’t think I would make it to 21.”

Demi was admitted to rehab for three months in 2010 after she punched a back-up dancer while on tour with the Jonas Brothers.

Speaking of the experience she told American Way: “I thought, ‘Oh great, now the world thinks I’m just another stereotype.'”

“I thought, ‘I’m not in treatment for a drug and alcohol problem.'”

“But once I started eating again, the other issues got worse. It was like whack-a-mole.”

While attending the centre Demi – who has since fought her addictions to alcohol, cocaine and the prescription painkiller OxyContin – was diagnosed with bipolar disorder – a condition her late father also suffered with.

In the interview, Demi revealed that both her mother and grandmother had previously dealt with bulimia – the same eating disorder she eventually went on to develop.

She said: “Being around somebody who was 80 pounds and had an active eating disorder…it’s hard not to grow up like that.”

“Hopefully my kids won’t have it, but it’s kind of like addiction…It’s hereditary.”

She also admitted that her issues with body image were enhanced by taking part in beauty pageants as a child where she “judged for her beauty”.

The 23-year-old celebrated her fourth year of sobriety back in March but continues to receive support at regular Alcoholic Anonymous meetings.

Demi also explained to the mag how being honest about her issues has benefited both she and her fans.

She said: “When I have meet-and-greets, I can’t tell you the amount of times that girls will show me their arms covered in scars or cuts.”

“They’ll tell me, ‘You helped me get through this. Because of you, I stopped self-harming,’ or ‘I got sober.’ Hearing those things gave my life new meaning.”

“At times I was resentful for having that kind of responsibility.”

“But now, it’s really become a part of my life. It holds me accountable.”

In the words of Fergie, "I got it from my mama."

That's what Emily Ratajkowski is saying right now as she posts unreal pics of her and her mam chilling by a pool.

Emily shared a photo of her and her mother, Kathleen, on Instagram where they're both standing side by side wearing bikinis… and if we look that good when we're her age, we'd be laughing.

It's safe to say we all add the odd filter to our photos to make us look a little better.

And while it's all well and good to have the choice to use a filter, Samsung has received backlash for 'forcing' people to have a filter on their selfies.

Author and health coach, Mel Wells, took to instagram to share her frustration at the mobile phone company after she bought a new phone, and took a selfie with it, but was surprised to see her face had been "heavily edited."

Mel wrote that "the default setting on the front camera is automatically on "Beauty level 8" which evidently means: seriously airbrushed face.

 

Wow Samsung. When you get a brand new phone and go to take a selfie and realise that the default setting on the front camera is automatically on "Beauty level 8" which evidently means: seriously airbrushed face. This means everyone who gets a new Samsung phone and flicks the front camera on is automatically being told "Hi, we're Samsung and we think you look way better when we automatically airbrush your selfies for you, x 8!!" Thanks @samsungmobile for the vote of confidence, I think I'll keep my freckles and imperfections since this is how I look in 3D and this is how all my friends see me in real life. I hope young girls are buying iPhones instead of Samsungs. (Wait, do iPhones do this too?) To clarify – no apps here – this is Samsung's DEFAULT FRONT CAMERA SETTING.

What do you think of this? Would you be happy to have this filter 'forced' on you?
