It's hard to believe that it's been almost two decades since Posh and Becks tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Dublin's Luttrellstown Castle, isn't it?

Two years after becoming one of the most high-profile couples in the world and just months after welcoming their first child, David and Victoria said 'I do', and today the footballer has paid tribute to that milestone moment in his life.

Taking to Instagram with a throwback snap of their wedding day, 41-year-old David wrote "Wow 17 years ago to this day this happened… I was lucky to meet someone who has the same drive and wanted the same things in life."

"We have created 4 beautiful children that I couldn't wish for a more loving and caring mummy for them," he continued. "Happy anniversary I love u." (sic)

Equally moved by memories of their special day, Victoria also took to Instagram this morning to share a snap of the pair hugging, and wrote: "I feel so loved and truly blessed. My best friend,my love."

"The kindest man who inspires me every day," she continued. "Happy Anniversary to the best husband and daddy in the world!! EVER!"

The couple's posts have clocked up more than half a millions likes between them, with fans of the world-famous family rushing to congratulate Posh and Becks on their anniversary.

"Happy anniversary to both of you, inspiring couple," wrote one while another tagged a fellow follower and commented: "I hope we find our David Beckham one day."

Relationship goals at its very best.

Whether she was rocking an Alice band, a long sleek bob or a head of beachy waves, Lauren Conrad generally remained pretty consistent when it came to her hair colour.

Warm honey tones tended to be the order of the day for the former reality TV star, but it looks like she's decided to go all Taylor Swift at the Met Gala if a recent Instagram preview is anything to go by.

While the 30-year-old Laguna Beach-native herself has yet to unveil her new look to her five million followers, Kristin Ess – Lauren's stylist – has teased the transformation on her own Insta page, and people are OBSESSED.

Uploading a shot of a coy-looking Lauren sporting platinum-blonde tresses, Kristin wrote: "Got to spend this morning with my human doll @laurenconrad and some of my fave ladies at @enews@cinalin @iamcattsadler {hair by me & makeup by @amynadinemakeup."

 "Just a bunch of hard working ladies making the world go round," she added in the post which has clocked up more than 8,000 likes since its upload this weekend.

The stylist's followers were all over Lauren's icy-blonde look, with one writing: "The perfection that is Lauren Conrad" and another commenting: "Lauren's new look is mesmerizing."

Ladies? We sense a hair appointment coming on…

With the breakdown of her engagement to Nick Young and the revelations that Nick’s ex is now pregnant with his child, Iggy Azalea has been having a seriously tough time over the last few weeks.

But thankfully model Amber Rose is on hand to offer Iggy her support.

On Saturday, Amber shared a heartfelt message on Instagram in which she tells the Australian rapper she understands what she’s going though and encourages her to stay strong despite the drama.

She wrote: “My heart goes out to you@thenewclassic I have been through heartbreak as well so I know what ur going through.”

“Stay strong and keep ur head up my Rosebuds and I support you and we think ur AMAZING!!! Not only beautiful but extremely talented!”

“I remember watching ur YouTube videos a few years back thinking ‘Wow this girl is gonna be a star’ and you are!”

“Let all the hate go in one ear and out the other…. Trust me I deal with just as much hate if not more."

Towards the end of the post, the sweet message takes a true Amber Rose twist as she tells Iggy to go “be a hoe” for the summer.

We've all dabbled in a little online shopping after a few too many gins, and the worst that generally happens is we receive a dress three sizes too small which a drunker and more positive version of ourselves had such high aspirations for.

While we can forgive ourselves those early morning misdemeanours, we'd struggle to get over buying tickets to see Queen Bey and then forgetting to actually show up as one woman in the UK did over the weekend.

Last Thursday. 34-year-old Tammy, fuelled by a few drinks, decided to go online and nab herself, her husband and her son three tickets to experience the Formation World Tour.

All was well until the happy trio were on their way to Sunday night's performance, and Tammy realised they were late…a full day too late, to be exact.

Pumped they'd be finishing off the weekend in the presence of greatness, Tammy opened her Ticketmaster app while on the train to the stadium and swiftly decided that alcohol and online activity shouldn't mix.

"It said only past events and I saw it said Saturday and realised the show was over and we couldn’t go anymore," she told BuzzFeed after sharing her story with Twitter.

"I think a lot of Beyoncé fans on Twitter could relate to me feeling devastated," she said. "There were the odd people laughing at me, but a lot of people were genuinely devastated for me as well, so that was nice, in a way."
 

If ever there was a better reason to stick to Lemonade in the future…. (Yeah, we actually went there, and now we'll see ourselves out.)

Khloe Kardashian and rapper Trey Songz got the rumour mill running this weekend when they were spotted kissing in a Las Vegas club. 

After hanging out in the VIP area at his concert on Saturday night, Khloe joined the Bottoms Up singer in Drai's nightclub where – according to an E! News source – they were later "seen making out".

That same night, fans also noticed the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star in the background of the R&B singer’s Snapchat story while he posed with friends.

This isn’t the first time the pair have been spotted together recently as just last week they were reportedly looking cosy as they left Khloe’s 32nd birthday party together.

But before we all get carried away, a different E! insider said both Khloe and Trey are keen to keep their single statuses.

They said: "Both of them are not looking for a relationship, just some summer fun."

"He thinks she is dope and a sweet woman, but he just got out of a relationship so he is not looking for anything serious."

"He does like how confident she is."

Oh well, at least he thinks she's "dope"!

Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas proved they are all heart over the weekend as they treated employees from Pulse nightclub in Orlando to a very special concert.

A Facebook post on the club’s account yesterday revealed that the former Disney stars surprised the venue’s staff with free tickets to their sell-out show and to a meet and greet before it began.

The post – which was accompanied by a picture of those involved – said: “Nick Jonas & Demi Lovato, thank you for making the Pulse family smile #onepulse #orlandostrong #pulseorlando.”

A later share showed staff members in a human pyramid and was captioned: “We will rise and not be defeated! #onepulse #pulseorlando.”

According to TMZ, around 30 employees were also given a private suite at the Amway Centre where the concert was being held.

During the show, Demi and Nick – who are currently travelling together as part of their joint Honda Civic Tour – again paid tribute to those lost in what’s been called the worst mass shooting in US history.

As they were joined on stage by Andra Day to sing Rise Up, the names and ages of the Orlando shooting victims were shown on a big screen.

The move comes almost a month after lone gunman Omar Mateen took the lived of 49 people when he opened fire in the popular gay nightclub.

Congrats to Derren King, he is the new Mr Ireland 2016!

 

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all involved in the Mr Ireland Final in the Wright Venue last night. I would especially like to thank the main sponsors @platinumbarbers, @thetanby2jenns, @fehilysfitness and both @brendanmarc and @seanmontague for putting on such a great event. I'd also like to thank the amazing panel of judges for choosing me as the the overall winner and for everyone who supported me leading up to the event. It is an honour for me to be awarded with the Mr Ireland title and I know that I have huge shoes to fill after all that the previous winner @karl_bowe has achieved. He really has set the bar high and I am determined to work hard to live up to the title as Mr Ireland. Next stop Mr World on the 19th July!! #mi16 #mrireland #mrworld

Some of the country's most handsome bachelors filled The Wright Venue yesterday in the battle to become the new Mr Ireland, but it was one fitness enthusiast who took home the crown.

In association with Platinum Barbers, the Mr Ireland competition was judged by top stylist Sonja Mohlich, talent agent Julian Benson, current Miss Ireland 2016 Sacha Livingstone, Platinum Barbers owner Richie Lalor and Mr Ireland 2015, Karl Bowe. 

The model took home the new title, and was congratulated all over social media yesterday.

Good choice, right?

Speaking to Goss, 2015's winner Karl said, “Mr. Ireland has opened so many doors for me and my chosen career in the entertainment business, I have loved every moment of it from presenting my Country at Mr. World to  allowing me to go for my dreams.

“I have been honoured to hold the title the last two years and I won’t lie when I say I will be sad my time has come to end but look forward to see what the new Mr. Ireland will do with this title and wish him the best.”

Sometimes, the Afternoon Slump is totally unbeatable, no matter how long you slept or how many cups of coffee you had.

Usually stopping by at around 3pm, it feels like a dark cloud is surrounding your head and it becomes *really* hard to function as a normal, working human being.

Well, as it turns out the dreaded slump isn't just all in our heads and it's a real, scientifically proven thing.

Francesca Bennet, health and wellbeing programme manager at AXA PPP Healthcare told Cosmo: "If you're lacking in energy and motivation in the afternoon, don't worry, you're not on your own. 

"Sleep is dictated by circadian rhythms also known as The Body Clock.

"The urge to sleep increases towards 2pm, this is driven by a natural dip in circadian alerting system and an increase in sleep homeostasis drive."

So basically, it's like a see-saw; when your alertness drops, your need for sleep increases.

"It occurs approximately 12 hours after we are in our deepest sleep at 2-3am.

"The Afternoon Slump is a normal feeling and has previously been associated with eating a big meal. This is not the direct cause, but may act as a contributing lifestyle factor on the sleep wake cycle.

"Poor lifestyle habits and insufficient quality and quantity of sleep can increase the feelings of tiredness and the Afternoon Slump," she added.

After four years of silence, the Sugababes are coming back – kinda.

Siobhán Donaghy, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan, who were the original members of the Sugababes but later renamed themselves MKS, are set to release another album.

The women tried to make it back in 2011 under their new name because their management company bought the rights to the 'Sugababes'… but their single totally flopped in the charts.

However, in a recent interview with Wandsworth Radio, Siobhán referred to them again as the Sugababes which sparks rumours they have won their original title back.

She said: "Sugababes have got a record coming out next year. I can't tell you the exact date. I know, but I can't tell you. It's next year.

'We've been back and then there was a bit of a break. But we're working on it again, so it's exciting," she added.

Whether under the name Sugababes or MKS, we bet they have some awesome music lined up for us.

We all like to watch an exciting magic trick on television every once in a while (hands up Derren Brown lovers?!) but TV viewers were left horrified when a magician's stunt went very wrong.

While appearing on a morning show in Poland, a magic trick took an awful turn when the magician accidentally pierced the hand of the presenter he was performing on.

The stomach-turning video shows Question For Breakfast host Marzena Rogalska, 46, holding her hand over a paper bag waiting to perform a stunt prepared by the Poland's Got Talent semi-finalist.

But when the reality star asks Marzena to drop her hand, she screams in agony as a nail pierces through it.

The host then drops to the floor and is rushed off camera to receive medical treatment.

The Sun reports that she was then taken to hospital where her injury was discovered to be superficial and she was given a tetanus shot.
Marzena later wrote to her fans on Facebook, saying: "Thank you for your support. I'm alive. Everything will be fine."

It looks like Katy Perry has a lot to celebrate today as she has just broken the record for the most followers on Twitter.

And it was the social media site themselves who congratulated Katy with the good news.

They wrote: "It's party time, @katyperry! With 90 million on the guest list, we're gonna need a really big dance floor."

The singer then retweeted their post and said: "Dang that is tight."

The performer is an avid tweeter and often tweets to keep her fans updated with music and behind-the-scenes snaps. However, she also takes to the social media site to share her political and philosophical views and also show off her gas sense of humour.

We bet she's feeling a lot like this right now:
