After his victory on Saturday night, Conor McGregor has now been suspended from UFC for six months.

In his second match against Nate Diaz, Conor went the full distance of five rounds, however he has now received a six month medical suspension for injuring his left foot and ankle.

If you watched the match, then you'll know what Conor used his left leg to weaken Nate's leg, and while it took a toll on Nate during the match, it's Conor who is feeling the consequences.

According to the Irish Examiner, the MMA star will be out of action until February 2017.

The Cavan Rose got some land when her segment during the first night of the Rose of Tralee pageant was interrupted by a fairly irate-looking priest intent on stealing her spotlight last night.

Clutching a handwritten sign, Matt O'Connor – not a priest but the founder of Fathers4Justice – tried to raise awareness of his organisation, before being escorted off-stage in front of a stunned audience.

Defending his decision to interrupt both the televised event and Lisa Reilly's interview with Dáithí O' Shea, Matt told Radio Kerry: "Lets put it in context – it's a beauty pageant, not somebody's holy communion."

"I was told – and I hope it's the case – that she carried on, the show carried on…and fair play to her," Matt said. "It's disconcerting, but let's remember this was a peaceful protest, it was nothing more dramatic than that, a couple of seconds on television, let's put it in that context."

Revealing that last night's protest only signalled the beginning, Matt continued: "The contest itself – the Rose of Tralee – has widely been panned as being a sexist and outdated beauty pageant; but it's an issue that we thought needed to be aired and it's the first of many protests we're going to be staging across Ireland."

Standing by his approach, Matt added: "That right to protest is actually enshrined in law. We have a right to peaceful protest, this was a peaceful protest."

And while it may be considered peaceful, Matt's decision left the Cavan Rose feeling more than a little rattled.

Commenting on the moment which – along with the Sydney Rose's impassioned speech – has been doing the rounds on Twitter today, Lisa said: "I was very, very close to bursting out crying."

"Dáithí gave me a bit of a squeeze," she continued. "Then everyone started to stand up for an ovation, especially the escorts and the Roses."

"It was the first time in eight years a Cavan Rose was in the Rose of Tralee so I wasn't going to let people down," she insisted.

It looks like Ariana Grande and Mac Miller are Hollywood's latest couple.

The pair have a major history together, including collaborations, remixes, and music videos, but now it seems like they're taking time to have fun outside of the studio.

According to TMZ, who snapped a few images, the couple were spotted in a sushi restaurant in California, and couldn't stop kissing all night long.

Another hint that Ariana and Mac are spending a lot of time together is that they posted nearly identical pictures on Instagram – this time in New York.

Whether a Serial fan or not, the vast majority of people will, at this stage, have heard of Adnan Syed and Hae Min Lee.

The latter was found murdered in Baltimore in 1999, and the former – her ex-boyfriend – was convicted of the crime.

But with glaring discrepancies in the trial against Syed, American journalist, Sarah Koenig, set about investigating the case in a move which resulted in one of the most downloaded podcasts of all time.

Listeners were informed that there existed a woman who could offer an alibi for Syed on the day of the murder, but who wasn't questioned during the investigation or asked to testify during trial.

Asia McClain insists that Syed was in the school library at the time police believe the murder was committed, and her claims have helped Syed secure a new trial following a post-conviction hearing.

But according to emerging reports, Asia's claims have been cast in doubt after two former Woodlawn High School students gave sworn statements to the Maryland attorney general's office this summer.

Claiming that Asia had planned to lie for Syed, the former students recalled an argument where they pleaded with Asia to rethink her plan.

"Both my sister and I (more so my sister) argued with Asia about how serious this situation was," recalled one.

"She just said that it wouldn't hurt anything — that if he was truly guilty, then he would be convicted. I'm not sure what can come of this information but I felt I had to let someone know."

Denying the accusations, Asia's attorney, Gary Proctor, said: "Given that the case is now before an appellate court, we question the timing of these bizarre, and wholly factually untrue, allegations.

According to The Baltimore Sun, the siblings sent Facebook messages to Asia and reminded her of the supposed altercation which took place when she suggested defending Syed.

"I've sat back and let you have your 15 minutes of fame on behalf of that poor girl because I didn't think anyone would actually [entertain] you or your fabricated story about seeing him in the library," one of the sisters wrote.

"I remember that day in Ms. Graham's like it was yesterday. I remember getting into a heated argument with you about how serious the situation was and that a girl lost her life and [redacted] actually had to 'break up' our verbal altercation," she added.

Asia denies these accusations and stands by her testimony.

Jonah Hill is one of our favourite actors, so we were delighted to find out he loves Dublin just as much as we love him.

Apparently, we're "really special" people here!

The actor hasn't been in the capital for two years, having travelled here to promote 22 Jump Street with Channing Tatum in 2014, however he said it's a place he'll always remember.

"I want to get back [to Ireland] so bad," he told RTÉ Entertainment. "I really love Dublin.

"I think it's a special place, the people are really special.

"Honestly, I judge a place by the people, and in Dublin the people have a really special demeanour, very self-deprecating, very funny, just good to be around."

Awwww! We <3 Jonah.

Pulling yourself together after a long-haul flight or even an early morning commute can be a day’s work in itself, but as Bella Hadid has shown in a new Vogue makeup tutorial, it doesn’t have to be that way.

Given that she’d been travelling for “for two months straight” at the time of filming, Bella – who is well known for her stunningly simple beauty looks – surely knows a thing or two about concealing the dehydrating effects a hectic lifestyle can have on the skin.

And while it’s clear that the young model is using high-end makeup products in the clip, it is interesting to note the ease with which she applies them.  While so many makeup tutorials achieve stunning results through precise, intensive and time-consuming application processes, the secret to Bella’s success seems to be her laid back approach.

In the short new video the teen can be seen applying a liquid concealer to much of her face before blending it in quickly with a beauty blender.  She then uses a cream Dior contour stick to define her cheek bones.

Again she uses the cosmetics sponge to blend, before adding a powder highlighter to the high points of her face and filling in her brows roughly with an eyebrow pencil.

Unusually the 19-year-old is shown putting a lash primer and mascara on her eyelashes before adding a gold shimmer shadow to her lids with her finger.

Finally Bella uses some clear gloss on her lips and twirls her wet hair into a bun to complete her fresh-faced off-duty look.  It’s that simple!

Their friendship in the Celebrity Big Brother house definitely had its ups and downs, but if Megan McKenna's latest column is anything to go by, she can officially draw the line under any relationship she ever had with Stephanie Davis.

Writing for Reveal magazine, Megan weighed in on the drama surrounding Steph and her ex-boyfriend and former housemate, Jeremy McConnell, in a move which isn't going to win her any fans from Steph's camp.

Acknowledging that she's laying herself bare to criticism, Megan insisted: "There’s always two sides to every story."

"I don’t agree with Jez cheating before he knew Steph was pregnant, but people have forgotten that she cheated first, on her ex-boyfriend with Jez… in front of the entire nation," Megan continued.

The 23-year-old reality star then attempted to highlight Jeremy's perspective on the matter, writing: "Everyone’s feeling sorry for Steph because she’s pregnant and putting on the waterworks, but I don’t agree with bringing up a baby in a toxic relationship, that’s what Jez’s point is."

The former Ex on the Beach star sounded fairly certain that the Dubliner would take responsibility in the long run, continuing: "I fully believe he’ll support that child and be there for it, he just doesn’t want to be in a relationship with her."

"It’s both of their responsibilities, but why dish your dirt out all over the place, like Steph has?" Megan asked.

In a message to her former housemate, Megan, who now stars in TOWIE, suggested Steph change her attitude, finishing: "Instead, focus on yourself and your baby, rather than cashing in from bad-mouthing him."

Well, that's gonna go down like a led balloon in the Steph camp.

It looks like Demi Lovato is in hot water again.

The singer has been hit with a lawsuit for copyright infringement.

Indie band Sleigh Bells claim that Demi's song Stars sounds nearly identical to their 2010 song Infinity Guitars.

According to E! News, who obtained court documents, Sleigh Bells claims that the songs are "virtually identical content" that "transcend the realm of coincidence."

The "comparison of the two songs reveals that, at the very least, the combination of the hand claps and bass drum, structured as 3 quarter beats and a rest, with the bass drum providing a counter-rhythm to the hand claps, is at least substantially similar in both works.

"This infringing material repeats throughout the Defendants' song."

Shortly after Demi's song was released late last year, Sleigh Bells took to Twitter to call Demi out, saying: "Flattered you guys sampled Infinity Guitars and Riot Rhythm for Stars but we were not contacted. Gotta clear those."

We're sure Demi wants this over and done with as soon as possible!

Anyone who's a regular to the Liffey Valley Shopping Centre will know that it's been undergoing serious refurbishments over recent months, but that's nothing in comparison to what's to come.

According to emerging reports this afternoon, the centre, which first opened its doors to the public in October 1998, has been granted planning permission for even more shops and  – wait for it – an Olympic-sized rink and arena.

It is understood that the rink will accommodate 2,500 spectators and will be in a position to host international ice skating and ice hockey competitions as well as various performances.

The centre, with an address in Clondalkin, will see a major chance to its civic space, with project organisers saying: "Plans include a transformation of the Centre’s civic spaces with the addition of a major new public space equivalent to a typical European-scale Urban Plaza."

Expansions plans, which included a proposal for a multi-story carpark, were previously met with opposition back in February, so South Dublin Country Council gave developers six months to alter their plans.

The revised plans, which no longer include the carpark, have been given the official go-ahead and will, according to those behind the project, do much for the economy.

"It has the potential to create up to 450 construction employment opportunities during development approximately 1,500 full and part-time jobs upon completion, bringing the total number of people employed within the centre to over 3,700".

We can't wait!

Nicola Hughes certainly didn't hold back in her latest interview with New! magazine.

The reality star was left heartbroken when her boyfriend Alex Mytton split up with her, via text message, when she was on a family holiday in Florence.

The pair have been on and off for about two years now, but now Nicola says after their last fall out, it's totally over.

"It was upsetting but then I laughed about it," she admitted.

"He's gross… a vile human."

However, that doesn't mean that her life is simple now that Alex is out of it. 

Nicola also admitted that while she's still single, she's been out on a few dates with one of Binky Felstead's exes.

"I'm definitely single. I'm not seeing anyone but I have been on dates with one of Binky's exes, who she dated two years ago. She's so angry about it," she added.

Nicola also spoke out about the rumours of romance swirling around her and Cheryl's ex Jean Bernard.

"I didn't know who he was. I was in a bar called STK in London and a friend invited me over to his table. We exchanged numbers but there's nothing there. I don't want to be associate with him."

Ahh, all is fair in love and war, right?

She’s outspoken, funny, stunning and – as the latest Forbes rich list has revealed – absolutely minted.  Yes, it seems Jennifer Lawrence really does have it all.

The Joy star has been named Hollywood’s highest earning female actress for the second year running, despite being the youngest lady on the star studded list which includes the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Charlize Theron and Julia Roberts.

According to The Telegraph, the 26-year-old Oscar winner will rake in a cool $46 million this year as she receives payment for her work on the Hunger Games and X-Men Apocalypse movies, as well as for her role as a Dior brand ambassador.

Melissa McCarthy took second place on the list with her $33 million income – that’s $10 million more than what she made last year – and Scarlett Johansson occupies the third spot with $25 million.

Former Friends star Jennifer Aniston is expected to make $21 million, while Mila Kunis took ninth place with $11 million.  

Angelina Jolie, Anne Hathaway, Reese Witherspoon and Kristen Stewart failed to make this year’s list, despite all having featured on the 2015 version.

While we wouldn’t say no to J Law’s salary, it is still worth noting that the actress’ $46 million income is still only half of what Hollywood’s leading man Robert Downey Jr made last year.

We LOVE when two of our favourite characters crossover for a TV show. And in this cae, it's Harry Potter's Rupert Grint and Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick.

Two of our beloved boys are in the middle of working on a new series called Crackle, and it's a far cry from what we're used to seeing them in.

Crackle is going to be a TV version of a movie called Snatch, which centres around a group of men who stumble across a truckload of stolen gold. The gang then end up in the world of organised crime.

Rupert will play the big role of Charlie Cavendish and Ed will play nightclub owner Sonny Castillo.

Ah lads, we're in for a good one here.
