Let's be honest, unlike Gigi Hadid, Gossip Girl has been our guilty pleasure for years.

We watched week after week to see how GG would mess with the lives of Blair, Chuck, Dan, Nate and Serena, and since the series ended in 2012, we've been itching to see a reunion.

However, executive producer, Josh Schwartz spoke to E! and said that since social media has changed so much, they "haven't really explored some of those conversations."

Imagine if Snapchat was around in GG times?! GAH.

Josh also pointed out that "the world has become Gossip Girl now, and now literally everyone is Gossip Girl."

He has a fair point, though. The minute we see or hear about something, it's straight up on social media, and no matter what platform we use, the news will have travelled around the world in a couple of seconds, never mind minutes.

If GG was to have a reunion, there would need to be something very out-of-the-box to make it work.

Until then, we'll keep our spirits high and hope they can finally all come back together again.

XOXO, SHEmazing! (Sorry, I had to).

Love them or loathe them, tattoos are almost as common a body modification as ear piercing or self-tanning, but according to recent research getting inked carries far more risks than many people realise.

In research which was conducted by the European Chemicals Agency, there exist a number of potential health risks when choosing certain colours for your tat of choice.

According to The Independent, scientists have established that the composition of certain tattoo ink can make them more toxic than others.

"Many reports show significant concerns for public health stemming from the composition of inks used for tattooing," experts asserted ahead of the study's publication.

"The most severe concerns are allergies caused by the substances in the inks and possible carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductively toxic effects," scientists explained.

Research concluded that red ink has been linked to dermatitis due to the presence of mercury sulphide while blue, green and purple ink are known to cause granulomas – which are characterised as little ridges or bumps on the skin.

Further to this research, the NHS in the UK have issued a warning regarding the use of black or neutral henna, saying: "If you see a shop or stall offering to paint black tattoos onto your skin, don’t be tempted to get one."

"It could leave you scarred for life and put you at risk of a life-threatening allergic reaction," they added.

As it stands, inks are not currently regulated within the EU, and if considered harmful will be banned.

Confirming the position, a spokesperson for the European Chemicals Agency said: "If it is found that a restriction is needed, a formal proposal to restrict the substances will be submitted within one year to initiate the process."

It's safe to say that Michelle Obama gave a riveting and inspirational speech at the Democratic National Convention last night.

Bringing the crowd to tears, she spoke about the importance of electing a good-hearted, qualified and strong president to which her daughters could look up to.

And taking to Twitter early this morning, Obama made our hearts melt by congratulating his wife.

He wrote: "Incredible speech by an incredible woman. Couldn't be more proud & our country has been blessed to have her as FLOTUS. I love you, Michelle."

We. Can't. Deal.

It would seem as though Simon Cowell is on the outs with a certain boy-bander. 

Speaking at an America's Got Talent press conference, the music mogul discussed his relationship with the One Direction boys, and openly referred to their "loyalty."

"We're in touch with them all. The great thing about all these boys – well not all of them but most of them – they are incredibly loyal and you don't always expect that" he said. 

"Niall, Harry, Louis – amazing," he continued…leaving out a familiar name. 

Simon did not mention anything about Liam Payne, leaving us all to wonder if they have had a disagreement. 

Perhaps the rift is as a result of Liam's recently signed solo record deal, with competing label Capitol Records. 

When asked about Louis however, who recently joined him as a guest judge on America's Got Talent, Simon gushed about how great he was doing. 

“Louis is great! It was so funny, and so kind of odd, because he had auditioned for me five years ago, and now he’s sitting where I’m sitting, judging other people and doing it really well."

In the hope of a One Direction reunion, we hope this beef cleared up soon.

Jimmy Kimmel and Matt Damon's 'feud' has become part of modern day folklore at this stage, and while the public are always eager to hear the latest instalment, it looks like the two lads are more interested in building bridges.

In a sketch for Jimmy Kimmel Live, Matt and his frenemy, Jimmy, decided to hash out their issues in the company of a couple's counsellor, and the internet can't get enough.

In footage which has been viewed more than 100,000 times in 24 hours, the lads recalled the trials and tribulations they have endured over the course of their relationship.

And the best part? The two lads clearly find the skit as hilarious as the audience.

After seven minutes of straight acting, Jimmy and Matt use drawings to describe their feelings for one another, and they can barely keep it together.

Bright-red and giggling uncontrollably over Jimmy's perception of him, Matt demands they re-shoot the shot, but thankfully it made it on to the internet in its unedited version.

Skip forward to 6.30 for the golden moment…

One thing that stops many of us from going on a night out is the cost.

In college, student bars and low drink offers meant we could party all night for twenty quid and arrive home safe, but now, along with a taxi to and from the bar, OUTRAGEOUS alcohol prices (I paid nearly €12 for a drink the other night) and an entrance fee, nights out are very, very expensive.

However, now the Drinks Industry Group of Ireland (DIGI) are looking to lower the excise of alcohol in Ireland by 15 percent.

The lobby group are calling for the reduction in the next budget. In DIGI's pre-budget plan, it says that excise is a "direct tax on tourism and that a reduction would support the drinks and hospitality industry, boosting economic growth."

It also pointed out that since Brexit has made the sterling pound vastly drop, it will give an immediate boost to buying alcohol over the boarder.

DIGI's chairwoman, Maggie Timoney said: "An alcohol excise reduction is a vital response to the new and immediate effect of the uncertainty caused by Brexit.

"Alcohol tax is a regressive and inequitable tax and ours is very high by EU standards. We believe that the particularly high Irish excise tax is detrimental to economic growth and economic activity.

"We would urge the Government to reduce excise by 15 percent in October's budget," Maggie added.

Downton Abbey actress Michelle Dockery will soon be transitioning from our TVs to our laptops as she has landed a role in a new Netflix period drama.

The actress – who played Lady Mary in the hit ITV show for five years – has reportedly landed the female lead in a new Netflix mini-series called Godless.

According to The Mirror, the 34-year-old will take up the role of ranch owner Alice Fletcher in the show which is set to be released next year.

Jack O’Connell – who found fame while playing James Cook in Skins – and Jeff Daniels from The Newsroom have also been cast in the series.

It looks like there’s going to be lot of good stuff coming to the portable screen in the coming months as just last week Netflix announced they are producing new episodes of Making a Murderer. 

Bring on the Winter binge!

She's one of the most enviable celebs in Hollywood at the moment, but as it turns out, Gigi Hadid is just like the rest of us when it comes to guilty pleasures.

The model held a Q&A on Twitter last night, and one fan asked her what her guilty pleasure is, to which she simply replied, "sleeping in."

Mmm hmm. There's nothing better than being a cosy cinnamon bun in bed.

Some of her followers also asked, "what are your effective stress relievers?" to which Gigi said, "art, baths, cooking, performing Broadway numbers in my apt."

So even with her gorgeous bod, heart throb boyfriend and glam BFFs, she's the same as us (minus all the $$$).

While once known for her notoriously private nature, Mila Kunis has turned that particular perception on its head after recently offering some particular interesting insights into the relationship she shares with husband Ashton Kutcher.

Just last week, the Black Swan star revealed that she and Ashton had started out as the classic 'friends with benefits' before graduating to fully-fledged boyfriend and girlfriend status.

And this week, she decided to give viewers of The Late Late Show an idea of what she's dealing with in the bedroom department when it comes to her husband's junk – yes, really.

During the Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts segment of the popular late night chat show, the 32-year-old actress revealed that her husband's penis most closely resembled our father's favourite weekend tipple.

After being presented with two options – a carrot stick or a beer can – Mila initially opted for a carrot stick before changing her mind.

“I have to have one or the other? Carrot stick. Beer cans are short," she answered before realising she may have sold her husband a little bit short on the girth front.

"Oh, beer can, beer can…I was thinking short and stubby and long and thin. But like a Guinness," she eventually concluded.

Well hello, Ashton…

It looks like a Charlotte and Gaz reunion is off the cards, for now anyway. 

The famous couple began a very public feud in May 2016, when Charlotte revealed that she had suffered an ectopic pregnancy.

 

Filming done… This 1 tho @charlottegshore

After a number of angry exchanges between the two on Twitter, which resulted in Charlotte quitting Geordie Shore – it would seem that she is still PI***D. 

In a recent interview with new! magazine, Charlotte got candid about her feelings for her ex-fella. 

 

The beans on my toast… @charlottegshore

"No one can even come close to how much of an evil, vindictive man he is. Even a murderer would be better than Gary Beadle. He is the worst, the lowest of the low" she said. 

Ouch! 

Charlotte insisted that she will never, EVER make up with Gary, stating that "there can be no reconciliation."

 

Date night…@charlottegshore

Gary doesn't seem to be letting Charlotte's words bother him, sending out a tweet last night saying "sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me."

It would seem as though the couples of Geordie Shore are all doomed to fail.

Using wild animals for entertainment in a circus has now been banned in Dublin.

The capital's City Council voted for the practice to be stopped last night, after the motion was first introduced by Sinn Fein councillor, Noeleen Reilly.

John Carmody, the spokesman for Animal Rights Action Network, said: “Thanks to the progressive views of Councillor Noeleen Reilly and those who voted yes at Dublin City Council to the motion, we are now steps nearer to a national ban on the use of animals in Irish circuses.

“With countries all over the world introducing such legislation, Ireland still has much to do to bring our outdated and old-fashioned views of using animals for entertainment into modern century thinking.

"But thankfully we feel that the tide is turning and we welcome the day Irish circuses can thrive with proper artists and acrobats, that way everyone can have fun.

"What is wrong with using animals in circuses? With the very best intentions in the world, a travelling circus is unable to adequately provide for the animals in their care.

"Considering their very nature, they pull up on whatever land is available and use makeshift, collapsible accommodation," John explained.

"Animals touring Irish circuses in 2016 include elephants, tigers, camels, horses, ponies, crocodiles, parrots and so many other animals prompting the need for national legislation to ban, outright, any circus using any animals."

Councillor Noeleen said: “I am delighted my motion was passed. This is a cruel outdated practice that holds no place in modern Ireland.

"Training and torturing animals to perform tricks for our entertainment in an unnatural environment is inhuman and degrading," she added.

After Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction way back when, the vast majority of us think absolutely nothing of a celebrity nipple or two.

Side boob, under boob, full-on boob; there's little those celebrities can reveal that we haven't seen before, and yet there exists an ongoing fascination with Kendall Jenner's enviably perky pair.

And it sounds like Kris and Caitlyn's daughter can't get her head around it.

The runway sensation, who is often spotted braless while popping in and out of Hollywood hotspots, addressed the interest in a post she shared on her website this week.

"I really don't see what the big deal is with going braless! I think it's cool and I really just don't care!" she admitted. "It's sexy, it's comfortable and I'm cool with my breasts. That's it!”

Reminding the public that her decision to go braless not only showcases her boobs in their natural form, but also gives her the opportunity to show off her array of jewellery.

"Another perk of going braless? It's also a fun way to show off my different nipple rings!" she continued. "Jacquie Aiche made me a couple of pieces that are really sick – like a pair of angel wings."

According to Kendall, the decision to pierce her nipple came after she realised how much she liked showing them off, writing: "Before I even decided to go for it, I just liked showing my nipples through some of my outfits; there's something understated, yet sexy about it."

"I wanted to get the piercing for SO long before Kylie. She did hers and then everyone thought I copied her, but I swear I had the idea first!"

Who knows – maybe Kendall's got an ass tat as well…
