Ariana Grande has been rocking a similar style for AGES now. High half ponytail with loads of volume?

Yup… that'll be Ms Grande alright.

However, the 23-year-old songstress has finally taken the plunge – opting for a cut and colour that is totally GORGEOUS on her.

Hinting at the revamp with a black-and-white full-lenght selfie yesterday, Ariana has now given fans a proper glimpse of her new do.

Rocking a darker, deep brunette hue, the Florida-born star showed off a fab fringe which totally freshened-up her appearance.

And while most fans were gushing over those bangs, it seems that some online observers weren't quite so happy… because, they claim, she's only copying rival popstar Selena Gomez's look.

Selena, 24, debuted her fringe back in June – and we have to admit that Ms Grande's revamped tresses are remarkably similar. 

Still, one Instagram user offered: "Why is every selenator hating Ariana bc of her hair, Selena and Ariana are friends…"

They're famously flirty on The X Factor.

And despite a high-profile falling out back in 2011 over the US version of the hit reality TV talent show, Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell are now once again thick as thieves. 

Indeed, the 33-year-old pop-starlet's estranged husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez Versini reckons the music mogul exercised a little too much control over her life – suggesting that Simon pushed a stressed Ms Cole to the limits last year.

A source close to Jean-Bernard told the Sun On Sunday today: “JB’s convinced Simon and X Factor played a big role in the end of his marriage.

“He says he watched Cheryl become extremely stressed by the gruelling X Factor filming process.

“He’d stand up for her when he felt people were pushing her to do too much.

“At the end of the 2014 series he said they came to a decision as a couple that she would not return.

“He claims work offers suddenly stalled and Cheryl felt she had no choice but to sign for another year.”

The source added that X Factor producers also didn't want the 35-year-old French businessman on set, explaining: “JB was upset by this as it meant they spent hardly any time together.

“He’s convinced Simon started whispering in Cheryl’s ear about him.”

Now it seems that 56-year-old Mr Cowell may have created something of a formidable nemesis; the source concluded: “It would give JB satisfaction if he could humiliate him.”

Ms Cole sparked concern among fans last year when she appeared to lose a significant amount of weight during X Factor filming. 

Of course, Cheryl is now happily in a relationship with One Direction's Liam Payne. For 2016, she has also decided not to return to her judge's chair, opting to concentrate on her music career instead.

In lieu, Simon has signed up Sharon Osbourne, Louis Walsh, and Nicole Scherzinger.

It seems that little Saint West – although just seven months old – is already talking away to his besotted pregnant.

However, his mum Kim isn't too happy with what his first words are… namely because he's chatting about 'Dada' rather than 'Mama'.

The 36-year-old reality TV star told People magazine: "He said ‘dada’ today, three times and I was like ‘what’?

"Kanye was so excited. He was like 'I told him to say that.' I was like, 'I just really wanted him to say momma first'."

Kim, also mum to three-year-old North, was on the red-carpet at Hakkasan in Las Vegas on Friday, and was happy to chat away to press.

Looking super-slim, she furthermore revealed that she's down beyond her target post-baby weight of just 120lbs.

'I’m definitely to my goal weight,' Ms Kardashian told reporters.

She added that she was "down way more than I expected".

As one of Ireland’s hottest celebrity couples, Claudine and Robbie Keane give us major life envy on a regular basis – but we think we just might have reached breaking point.

Claudine revealed this weekend that the couple and their two sons have just moved into a new mansion in Beverly Hills, and the first photo has left us green with jealousy!

Opening up in her column for the Irish Daily Star, Claudine admitted that the main reason for the move was to be closer to eldest son Robert’s school – but, for her, the views of that famous LA skyline absolutely sold the new pad.

“My big wish was to take advantage of living in Beverly Hills and the amazing views of the city,” she wrote.

The doting mum-of-two added: “When I wind down in the evening, there’s nothing better than relaxing with the LA skyline lit up. It’s difficult moving everything, but luckily my brother Ronan and my mum have been here as a helping hand, and everything has gone pretty smoothly.”

She went on to share a stunning first shot from the family’s new home, with said breath-taking views on display beyond the sun-drenched swimming pool.

“So lovely to move into our new house in LA. Loving the views,” tweeted Claudine.

Talk about goals. We wish them all the best in their amazing new home.

Let’s just put it out there; once we got over the absolute cuteness that is Prince George in his little stripy T-shirt yesterday, there was one detail in the Palace’s birthday photos that we were obsessed with: the ‘William & Catherine’ swing.

Yes, they’ve only gone and proven themselves to be the ultimate lovebirds, yet again – as if we needed more convincing!

While we reckoned the gorgeous wooden swing was some fancy project commissioned by the Queen herself, or perhaps the Royal Carpenter (surely they have one?!), we have been very pleasantly surprised to learn that that EXACT swing is actually available to buy online.

Yes, The Cambridges’ very swing was bought on notonthehighstreet.com (all-important link here), retailing for just under €200 (€199.03, to be exact – minus delivery charge).

Made of oak and manila rope, the ‘beautifully hand-crafted garden swings come with the engraving of your choice’ – so, if you don’t want to go down the royal route, you can opt for something fancier, like ‘Rachel + Ross 4eva’.

Now, maybe it’s a sign that we’re getting old, but this is one royal trend that we could definitely see being an investment. Credit cards at the ready!

If you're going to create your own capsule collection of clothing and bikinis for the summer months – you may as well wear it too. 

Which is exactly what Charlotte Crosby is doing today: stepping out in a pretty red patterned playsuit that costs just €37.

Part of her popular Nostalgia range from inthestyle.com, we reckon the reality TV star looks pretty gorge.

Still, last night the reality TV star herself sparked concern when she claimed that she felt like 'sh*t'.

Taking to Twitter she wrote: "I've never felt like such shit in my whole life…..I need to sort myself out ASAP. There's no excuses for this."

Her fans were quick to offer reassurance, however, with one writing: "Ya gorgeous babe couldn't ever imagine you feeling or looking like s***"

Another added: "Life's to short to feel s*** mate dust it off and keep smiling :)"

Earlier this year, Charlotte also shocked fans by quitting Geordie Shore. She also revealed that she had suffered an ectopic pregnancy shortly before breaking up with co-star Gaz Beadle.

We've been enjoyed the wonderfully warm weather as of late – but for those who can't decide between a cool glass of beer and a cool ice-cream, one company may have come up with the perfect solution.

Step forward Drunken Dairy – the maker of the likes of the white chocolate and Malibu White Knight (abv 2.3 percent); the gin, lime and tonic GLT sorbet (abv 5.1 percent), and the cookies and cream with vodka OMG (abv 4 percent).

Set up in the spring of 2013, the makers attend food markets and events in London – giving out plenty of free samples to curious bystanders. 

They also cater for corporate events, festivals, weddings and parties, though sadly the product has yet to be widely rolled-out outside of London.

An added bonus? The alcohol in the ice cream and sorbets actually lowers the freezing point – meaning it’s naturally soft scoop and tastes pretty amazing straight from the freezer. 

 

The new flavours are going down well at @east_dulwich_picturehouse! Happy 1st birthday

The brand has just this week moved into a bigger, better premises – so expansion is very much already underway.

And until the Drunken Dairy lands in a fridge closer to home, we'll just have to keep our desserts and our alcohol separate.

A slip, a drop, a fall – a drunken mistake: far too many iPhone screens in this world have been smashed and cracked.

Indeed, it's the feature – not to mention the €150-repair bill – that most irritates users of the Apple device. 

However, it seems there is some good news on the horizon for those who are prone to dropping their mobile: namely that the forthcoming latest model will be 'indestructible' – or pretty much so.

Step forward Gorilla Glass; the manufacturer of millions of glass displays for mobiles. 

It's just about to release its fifth iteration, and promises that it's as made of tough stuff.

Yes, lab tests reveal that Gorilla Glass 5 displays remained intact during 80 percent of drops that occurred at heights as high up as 1.8metres. What’s more, Gorilla Glass 5, which is being touted as four times as resilient as previous designs, holds up extremely well even when dropped onto rough surfaces.

“With each successive generation of Corning Gorilla Glass, we have taken cover glass technology to new levels,” John Bayne of Corning, its parent company, said in a press release.

“With many real world drops occurring from between waist and shoulder height, we knew improving drop performance would be an important and necessary advancement.”

Excitingly, Corning expects Gorilla Glass 5 to show up on commercial products “from leading global brands later this year” – a statement which is being widely inferred as referring to the iPhone 7.

She a beautiful actress with a 20-year long Hollywood career under her belt. 

But it seems that a recent round of pictures of Tara Reid has worried some of her loyal fans – with many claiming that she doesn't look well. 

The 40-year-old was is currently in San Diego for the famed Comic-Con event.

Tara herself has been promoting her latest film, Sharknado: The 4th Awakens – taking to the IMDb yacht yesterday along with her fellow cast members. 

Wearing a bright orange two-piece co-ord by WOW Couture, Ms Reid wore her blonde hair back off her face.

She smiled warmly for the duration of her appearance, but some of her fans nonetheless voiced their concern on social media.

"It's so terribly sad….she has beautiful eyes, a beautiful face…she looks so painfully thin that it just ruins everything," one wrote, adding: "I'm sure her body is suffering inside and out (hair falling out, brittle nails, skin problems, etc etc). I just wish she could put weight on and be happy.

"All these Hollywood actresses starving to death for what???"

Another said: "Tara Reid is a walking, visible example of how Hollywood can f–k you up."

The actress shared snaps from the event on Instagram, and confirmed that she was 'having fun'.

She was joined on the yacht by the film's director Anthony Ferrante as well as co-stars actors Cody Linley, Masiela Lusha and Ryan Newman.

With everything that's been going on of late – Kim, Kanye, Calvin & Co. – understandably, Taylor Swift hasn't had much time to tend to her usually busy social media platforms.

However, she has now emerged from self-imposed digital exile, taking to Instagram to mark the 24th birthday of her BFF Selena Gomez.

Posting a throwback snap of the duo making a heart with their hands, the singer wrote: “Going through old pictures today, because @selenagomez just turned 24! 

“I can’t imagine my life without you, Selena. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”

Selena has had her friend's back in recent weeks, as Ms Swift, 26, manages the fall-out from her Kimye feud, the breakdown of her relationship with Calvin Harris, and her new romance with Tom Hiddleston. 

And the birthday gal also took to Twitter today with a 26-second long acoustic-sounding snippet from a forthcoming song.

"Did this on my birthday… coming soon. Thank you so all the love. I love you guys, God bless," she wrote as she shared her new music.

Significantly, the unveiled lyrics sang: "The world can be a nasty place. You know it; I know it.

"Still you don't have to fall from grace. Put down the weapons you fight with."

Which, coincidently, we reckon sound mighty suitable for Ms Tay-Tay Swift.

*Some users may find this article distressing*

An understandably distressed mother has now spoken out about the moment her eight-year-old son saw the Munich shooter loading his gun in a McDonald's toilet… before targeting children and opening fire on them.

The woman, named by CNN as Lauretta, said she was with her child was in a bathroom when the killer struck.

"My son saw in the toilet the man loading his gun. It was a pistol.

"That's where he loaded his weapon.

"Boom, boom, boom, I heard.

"He's killing the children. They were sitting to eat. They can't run."

She added that she heard the gunman say: "Allahu Akbar" meaning 'God is great'.

Mail Online has named 18-year-old ‘loner’ Ali Sonboly as the perpetrator who killed at least ten people in the attack.

The Iranian-German teenager – who complained that he had been bullied for seven years – “targeted innocent children and then turned his gun on himself following the massacre,” the website additionally reports.

Shockingly, Police are investigating claims that Sonboly lured his young victims to their deaths with a promise of free McDonald's food.

A fake Facebook page reportedly told youngsters to gather at the restaurant yesterday afternoon for the special offer. 

Munich Police President Hubertus Andrae has confirmed that a number of adolescents were among the dead and that several children were injured.

Armed and armoured cops are still on the streets around the Olympia-Einkaufszentrum shopping mall in the centre of the German city.

ISIS-related social media accounts have been sharing reports of the attack, but reports in German newspaper Bild suggests right-wing extremists are responsible.

The shopping centre is next to the Munich Olympic stadium, where the Palestinian militant group Black September took 11 Israeli athletes hostage and eventually killed them during the 1972 Olympic Games.

The attack took place a week after a 17-year-old asylum-seeker wounded passengers on a German train in an axe rampage claimed by Islamic State.

Well, it has been one of the hottest weeks that gloriously unpredictable Ireland has basked in a long time.

And suffice to say that ice-cream sales have been through the roof as countless numbers of us cool down in the heat.

Now, one eagle-eyed observer has taken to Reddit to share a snap that some online commentators have found controversial.

Entitled, 'the gardai just bought an ice-cream for someone in the back of the van,' upon closer inspection, it seems that the image shows members of the Irish Prison Service at work.

With their high-security van open at the rear, it seems that the guards are handing someone incarcerated there an ice-cream.

One of the two visible prison services personnel can also be be seen sporting standard-issue handcuffs on their belt.

There was a mixed response to the post on Reddit, with some users feeling an ice-cream is an inappropriate treat for a prisoner en route to or from a court hearing or jail. 

The image was shared yesterday, although there is no suggestion as to what part of Ireland the photo was taken.
