Whether it’s her daughter’s Instagram debut or the first time she started ‘cooking’, Chrissy Teigen is not shy about sharing her little one's milestones on social media.

However, Luna dressed up in a banana costume is definitely the BEST photo we have seen on Chrissy's Instagram.

Taking to the social media page yesterday, the mum-of-one was clearly having lots of fun dressing her six-month-old up for her very first Halloween.

If you know a lad called Cormac who lived it up in France during the Euro 2016 championship, it might be worth telling him he's wanted.

In a move which has sent Irish football fans reaching for every innuendo they can think of this week, a French girl called Rita posted a message to an Irish football fan Facebook page in search of a little assistance.

"I was hoping to have some help from the You Boys in Green supporters club in finding an Irish football fan called Cormac who I met here during the Euros this year," she began.

"I don't have any more information other than his first name and where we met, but I'm trying to contact him about an important matter."

Rita explains that she met Cormac at La Place du Change – a square in the Old Town where Irish fans gathered together on Saturday and Sunday evening during the Euros – at around 1am on June 27.

"We met while the crowd was singing "Don’t take me home”, which they continued to sing for at least 10 minutes. He had lost his friends."

While most people, including us, are jumping to conclusions, Rita is keen not to alarm poor Cormac, finishing: "He needn't worry, I just need to touch base with him about something."

"Someone left more than memories in France. Man up now, u have a little one the way," wrote one. (sic)

Referencing a Christy Moore classic which tells the story of a hapless Joxer in Stuttgart, another follower of the page wrote: "Time for Christy Moore to write another classic song – Cormac goes to Lyon"

Cormac, you on this?

When it comes to Liam Payne and Cheryl Cole's relationship, Liam is definitely the more candid of the two.

From sharing selfies of the pair to posting declarations of love via Instagram, the former 1D star wears his heart on his sleeve, and doesn't care who knows it.

And while we're all for the celeb couple and their newfound devotion, sometimes we can't help but compare Liam to the person you blocked on social because you just couldn't handle their relationship updates.

After taking to Twitter to pay tribute to her fans yesterday, Cheryl's boyfriend muscled in on the post and reminded everyone just how devoted he is to the Girls Aloud star.

"I always love spending the day with you lot!! It makes me so happy," Cheryl tweeted following a book signing yesterday. "Thank you to everyone who came to the signing today. I loved it."

And in what has now become known as a classic Liam move, the 23-year-old wrote: 'So jealous of everyone who got to spend the day with my girl today. Grrrrrrr!"

Bitter and jealous? Us? Definitely,

So, Ruby Tandoh has undergone a radical transformation.

In a move which has left her Twitter followers reeling this week, the Great British Bake Off star has taken to social media to share snaps of her new look, and it's fair to say opinion is divided.

The 24-year-old baker, who appeared in the 4th season of the much-loved baking competition, decided to ditch her trademark curls in favour of a buzz cut.

Uploading a snap of herself looking pretty defiant on Wednesday, Ruby wrote: "Do what you want.

Following the snap with her reasoning. Ruby added: "I realised I was always hiding behind my big mop of hair and pulling it over my face so i was like… bye curls, hello being unapologetic."

And while most social media users have praised the new look, not everyone has been so complimentary.

Taking issue with Ruby's decision to showcase her shaved head, one follower wrote: "Not attention seeking at all, is it?"

Owning her critic with one line, Ruby replied: "Is your bald ass head attention-seeking too?"

Vine was probably the first nugget of video sharing social media that we all experienced.

The Twitter-owned app made videos popular on the world wide web back in 2013, but soon it'll be no more.

The app issued a press release today to tell its fans that the app is going to be discontinued.

However, it insures that all of its content will stay online and you will still be notified if there's further changes.

When we first found out that Disney-Pixar had finally announced a date for the new Toy Story movie, we probably got a little over excited (it is the best kids film, after all).

But don't get too carried away if you're looking forward to it because the highly anticipated movie will be delayed until June 2019.

Hasn't your excitement just turned into mush?!

However, the film franchise also announced that The Incredibles 2 is going to be hitting our screens and will be swapping release dates with Toy Story 4.

SO, 2018 will see The Incredibles 2 and 2019 will see Toy Story (finally) hit our screens.

Rumer Willis has had a bunch of small movie and TV roles in the past but has now turned to music.

She's currently on her Over The Love tour in the US and stopped by Sway in the Morning radio show during the week.

After chatting to the hosts for a while, she began to sing, and it's safe to say nobody thought she had a voice that amazing!

She blasted out Amy Winehouse's You Know I'm No Good and totally blew everyone away.

We think Rumer should definitely stick with music from now on.

Hangovers are one of the worst things on Earth. And we fully understand that we bring them on ourselves, but still… hangovers are Hell.

We all occasionally get stuck with an absolute rager of a hangover, and we all have our own little ways to cure it – but, this Hangover Bar has thought of it all.

Last month in Amsterdam, a Hangover Bar popped up for one weekend only and it sounds like a total dream.

The whole place is kitted out with comfy beds and sofas, loads of green and bushy plants and even an oxygen bar (which is famously known to cure a hangover quickly).

And if you feel like this would be class for just any old day, they have actual 'hangover inspectors' who will breathalyse you to make sure you were actually on the drink last night and not just looking for a free bed to rest your head.

However, once you're inside you can avail of massages, chilled smoothies, a whole host of TV shows and they even have a anti-hangover menu.

Who else needs this to come to Ireland?!
