While another season of the X Factor may be over, the legacy of one act is still alive and well – sort of.

Honey G made her Good Morning Britain debut this morning but her performance didn’t go quite as well as she’d hoped.

The rap artist walked to the stage while performing a cover of the Missy Elliott classic Get Your Freak On, an artist who Honey says she’s a big fan of.

However, it seems the 35-year-old might need to refresh her Missy memory as she was seen forgetting the lyrics live on telly.

The performer from “North Weezy” – otherwise known as North-west London – seemed to lose her flow half way to the stage as host, Kate Garraway interrupted to fill the dead air.

But it seems Honey is not admitting defeat saying the mishap wasn’t a mistake, it was just her re-worked version of the 2001 hit.

Ah yeah, that makes sense.

This year’s X Factor novelty act, Honey was on the breakfast show to promote her first single, The Honey G Show which is available from Friday.

Talking about her signature look, Honey G says wearing the snapback and reflective sunnies isn’t always as glamorous as it looks.

"Having the glasses and hat on all the time sometimes gives me a bit of a headache.

"I take them off if I’m on my own at my flat or something."

After welcoming their second child together last month, Peter Andre and Emily MacDonagh has been slow to release any details about the little one before they were ready.

It took a few weeks for the pair to announce little Theodore James’ name and now the proud parents are ready to share his first pictures.

Emily had a tough birth after she informed that Theo was breech and losing weight.

“I went to hospital and they tried to turn him from the outside,” Emily told OK! magazine.

“It was quite painful, but I didn’t want a C-section so I had to get through it.”

However, it was out of the mum-of-two’s control as doctors told her she was out of options.

“I felt robbed of having a natural birth but at least he’s healthy,” Emily explained.

The pair said they were in aw after the arrival of little Theo however, Peter admits he was shaken after seeing Emily go through so much pain.

“I got emotional seeing my baby for the first time, but also seeing Ems going through so much trauma.

“She had just been through hell.”

This is the second child for 43-year-old Peter and 27-year-old Emily who welcomed daughter Amelia in 2014.

Just when you thought hair trends couldn't possibly get any weirder… enter: hair stencilling.

Yes, it exactly what you think it is, using a stencil to dye a specific design onto your hair.

Janine Ker, an artist and hair stylist, popularised this trend earlier this year, and it has been all over Instagram ever since. 

No we will admit that some of these looks are sort of extreme, but the more subtle designs are really gorgoeus. 

Yes, we want to try this trend IMMEDIATELY.

Pass the spray paint, please.

After weeks of speculation, it looks like Geordie Shore's Aaaron Chalmers and TOWIE's Lauren Pope have finally gone public with their relationship.

The rumour mills began spinning earlier this year when Lauren alluded to the fact she found the Newcastle lad more than a little easy on the eye.

Speaking to New magazine in May, she explained that she had crossed paths with the Geordie lad that month, and had herself a whale of a time altogether.

"I was DJing at a club and he was there," Lauren explained. “We had a very funny, drunken night. We went to bed at 6am!"

Not content to leave it there, Lauren added: "I think Aaron is the hottest on the show and my type is tattoos and a beard, so he fits the bill."

And it sounds like Lauren's comments must have done the trick as it seems the pair are a fully-fledged couple these days.

Heading along to Hyde Park's Winter Wonderland in recent days, the reality stars were reportedly all about the public displays of affection – something which bystanders were only too happy to discuss.

"It was a very romantic date, they were holding hands throughout," an onlooker revealed. 

“They looked completely loved up and really enjoyed the day out," they added.

Well sure look it, tis the season and all.

The soon-to-be former US president Barack Obama has his new office all sorted – and (perhaps unsurprisingly) it's a bit of a step down from the mighty Oval Office.

Yes, after they leave the White House, America's First Family will move into a rented property in the Kalorama neighbourhood of Washington DC.

The beautiful on-street house is being refurbished for Barack, his wife, Michelle, and their two daughters Malia, 18, and 15-year-old Sasha.

The soon-to-be ex-president's brand-new office will be located in one of the house's two garages.

According to TMZ, workers are already converting "one garage stall into an office with new bathroom."

The 762sq metre house valued at an astonishing $6m (€5.75m) will be upgraded with an enhanced security system. It will also be given an electrical system upgrade to meet the family's demands.

The impressive property furthermore includes nine bedrooms and eight-and-a-half bathrooms.

The home will remain under surveillance by the US Secret Service.

Let's be honest, when it comes to politicians (both here and across the pond), few possess the same charm and charisma as Barack Obama.

And while it's hard to emulate Barack's aura, the vast majority of politicians have, at the very least, something which helps them stand out from the crowd… right?

And in the case of former Labour leader, Ed Miliband, it's his uncanny ability to personify the common cold.

Resigned to little more than a stock image at the weekend, poor ol' Ed saw his head plastered across an American news station who decided to use his image – along with a variety of other stock images – to highlight the perils associated with flu season.

And Twitter is unsurprisingly having a field day.

I think it's safe to say that we all have a special place in our hearts for that ICONIC Cornflakes Christmas ad!

The best (and most adorable) part of the advertisement was, and always will be, the adorable little toddler in the pink onesie.

Her "ho ho ho" was sheer cinematic GENIUS, and we will love it forever.

Anyway, we decided to a little bit of research into where that little blond baby has been over the past 20 years or so. 

Our first discovery was the fact that the little girl was actually played by Holly and Alexandra Stapley, a set of twins. 

The advert originally aired in 1991 (feel old yet?), and has been blessing our TV screens every Christmas since then.

While neither of the girls ended up pursuing acting as a career, they have made some very cool cameo appearances over the years.

Alexandra had a minor role in Mean Girls (see photo below), and Holly did a bit of modelling while she was a teenager.

Holly currently works as a full-time nurse, and got married in 2013, while Alexandra is a sales rep for Nissan in Canada.

Well, if that doesn't make you feel nostalgic I don't know what will.

At this stage, we all know that Caleb Followill is far from complimentary about the track which catapulted Kings of Leon into superstardom, but if anyone is a fan of Sex On Fire, it's the South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue crew.

Or, more specifically,  the South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue crew and comedy band Everly Pregnant Brothers.

In a move which they hoped would help alert the public to the dangers of domestic fires, the two groups decided to team up and release a parody of the 2008 hit, dubbing it Chip Pan.

Commenting on the tribute, assistant chief fire officer, Martin Blunden said: “This record is clearly a bit of festive fun, but with chip pans still responsible for large numbers of house fires every year, we think there’s a safety message in there somewhere.”

"We also want to remind people that tens of thousands of firefighters and 999 operators – not to mention many more of their colleagues in the emergency services – will be on duty this Christmas keeping people safe."

The lads behind the parody are keen to remind the public that every penny made from the track will go towards supporting the older and homeless in society.

Prepare yourselves for this one, ladies.

So, if you’re a regular here on SHEmazing! you’ll know all too well about how we feel when it comes to trips to the salon.

If not, then let us summarise for the class.

From awkward small talk to the fear of not leaving absolutely thrilled with the result, the whole experience isn’t always the “pamper session” it’s promised to be.

That’s why the idea of being able to DIY-beauty in the comfort of our fluffy pyjamas while watching an episode of Say Yes To The Dress is the true meaning of happiness.

So while having our lashes done professionally gives us all-sorts of personal space issues (not to mention bank balance woes) applying them at home is delightfully carefree: we don't look like a hot mess on a night out but neither do we have to endure the trauma of salon eyelash application

Getting our nails done can be a very glamorous affair but not when we leave feeling like Edward Scissor hands.

We’ve gone old school here at SHEmazing! HQ and are all about those stick on falsies which have come a long way since we first dabbled back in the Nineties.

No more will you spend 20 minutes filing them down so to not injure yourself or anyone else.

No more will you be left with open wounds after peeling away the thick layer of glue from your finger tips.

And no more will you have to settle for the French tips that look as natural as a Geordie Shore housemate.

Whether you chose to paint them yourself or get the look for less with some amazing nail art, falsies are the perfect way to transform your talons.

We've been pretty bowled over by KISS for lashes and ImPRESS for nails – available almost everywhere and with a huge range of styles, the brand is gaining a mighty whack of traction online.

So pish-posh to the salon, we say! And with prices starting at €7.49, you’ll be saving yourself a pretty penny too.

The opening bars of All I Want For Christmas are enough to send most people into a festive frenzy.

While Fairytale of New York will always (and understandably) take first place in our hearts, Mariah Carey's classic hit comes in a very close second place.

Widely considered one of the most popular Christmas tracks of modern times, the song, which debuted in 1994, ensures Mariah will be kept in diamonds for years and years to come.

Raking in approximately £376,000 for the singer each year, All I Want For Christmas is (quite literally) the song that just keeps on giving.

And let's be honest –  for a stomper like that, she deserves every penny.
