If you were a devoted follower fan of Laguna Beach and The Hills, then you're going to be very happy with this news.

Lauren Conrad, who recently said that she'd never do reality TV again, has apparently changed her mind.

The designer took to Instagram last night, posting a picture of her with a camera man and she teased us with the caption, "Never thought I'd see the day."

It all sounds very cryptic, but then she tagged MTV in the picture (!!).

 

Never thought I'd see the day….

MTV News said the the network will not comment on the IG pic BUT to keep an eye out on Lauren's Twitter next Tuesday at 11am for "exact details." Eeek!

Will it be a brand new show? A look inside her fashion brand, Paper Crown? DIY videos like on her blog?

We have so many questions…

She may have been linked to one of the biggest deals in music history, but that doesn't mean Adele doesn't eff up from time to time.

And, unsurprisingly, it only makes us love her even more. (If that's even possible.)

While performing in Lisbon this week, the multi-award winning singer experienced a major on-stage malfunction, but she OWNED it like the pro that she is. (Obvs.)

While giving it socks to A Million Years Ago, the 27-year-old Londoner realised she had gone majorly off-track, guffawing: "Sh*t, wrong words. Sh*t, Sh*t!"

Breaking into peals of laughter, her fans cheered her on as she cursed and explained that she accidentally sang the verse instead of the chorus.

Oh, could we love her any more?!

Long leisurely brunches are by far our favourite part of any weekend, and the only thing that could top them would be finding out we didn't have to get out of bed to get our mitts on one.

From 9am tomorrow, they good folk behind Deliveroo will be dropping off mouthwatering meals from Brother Hubbard, Cocu, Doughboys, Sister Sadie, Eathos, Freshii. Krust Bakery, Counter Culture and Dublin Cookie Co. to anyone lucky enough to be living in Dublin 1,2 and 4.

And girls, it gets EVEN better so prepare yourselves.

With the Deliveroo app, you have the option to schedule a delivery a day in advance, so if you're falling into bed on a Friday night, you can console yourself by knowing you'll be waking up to your favourite brunch the following morning.

What in the hell is this pure unadulterated joy?!

Girls, we are head over heels in LOVE with puppies, so we're totally Team Simon after he took to Twitter to slam a recent Britain's Got More Talent gimmick.

Following an episode of the talent show's spin-off show, the music mogul took to social media to confirm that he wasn't AT ALL impressed by the decision to allow puppies on set of the popular programme.

The record producer and BGT judge insists he was as taken aback as the viewers when Britain's Got More Talent host, Stephen Mulhern. started giving Dalmation puppies to the panel of judges as part of a quiz segment on the show.

Worried for the puppies' welfare, Simon quickly decided to take his puppy to a quieter area of the studio, telling everyone: "This one is frightened. I’m going to put this one down."

Following the show's airing. Simon agreed with viewers' complaints, tweeting: "I wasn't aware puppies were going to be on BGMT tonight. Trust me, it won't happen again. They're on their way home now."

Echoing his boss's post to the public, Stephen told social media users: "Very quickly, I’d like to apologise if we upset anybody with the puppies. Obviously that wasn’t our intention in any way, shape or form.”

Defo didn't think that one through.

If you associate certain songs with chills and you get goosebumps when you're moved during an X Factor audition, you'll know exactly what people mean by the term 'skin orgasm'.

The rippling feeling which passes across your skin during a particularly powerful piece of music is known in French as frisson. and according to a report in The Independent, approximately two-thirds of the population experience it.

So, what causes us to prickle at certain tracks? According to scientists, an unexpected harmony, a sudden change in volume or the introduction of a soloist causes frisson because these things happen to interrupt our experience, but in a GOOD way.

And why does this often result in actual goosebumps? Well, that's a little less clear, but scientists are toying with the theory that it goes all the way back to our ancestors.

Back in the day, they kept themselves warm through something known as an endothermic layer of heat that they retained beneath the hairs of their skin, and while we no longer need this because, you know, clothes, we only experience it when exposed to emotional stimuli.

And if your friends slag you for getting goosers at every single good X Factor audition, you can tell them it's because you're more open to experience.

According to The Independent's report, research has proven that those who experience frisson most often have "active imaginations, appreciate beauty and nature, seek out new experiences, often reflect deeply on their feelings, and love variety in life."

Hell yeah, we do!

If you love Disney, have ever been to Disneyland, or are simply just the smallest Mickey Mouse fan, then you need to see the GIGANTIC Disney cruise ship that arrived in Dublin this morning. GAH.

Carrying nearly 4,000 people, the Disney Magic Cruiseliner stopped in Dublin at 5.30am as it's making its way from Port Canaveral in Florida to Dover in the UK.

The ship is absolutely massive. Huge. It has 11 decks on board and is 300m long, making it the perfect size to comfortably enter and turn around in the River Liffey.

Passengers on the cruise were given Cruise Dublin Visitor passes this morning so they could enjoy the city before departing at 5.30pm this evening.

They were also greeted by what Dublin Port described as a "Game of Thrones inspired entertainment spectacle."

Just a week after insisting he would take responsibility if his former girlfriend, Stephanie Davis, was indeed pregnant, Jeremy McConnell has done a full 180.

With Stephanie telling her Twitter followers that she and her unborn daughter were snuggled up for the evening, the Irish model had his own say, and it doesn't look good for Steph.

"Night people," he wrote in a post last night. "I'm as shocked as all you are at this whole saga, I'm sure you can join the dots yourself. #letmelive."

And when Twitter users attempted to weigh in, Jeremy silenced them fairly swiftly and insisted that the former Hollyoaks star was not carrying his child.

Laying some serious doubt on Steph's story, Jeremy wrote: "It's all lies iv been told by her friends. She's not pregnant with my child, come on." (sic)

While some Twitter users showed their support for Jeremy, others were even quicker to stand up for Stephanie, with one writing: "Maybe if u went to the scan u would know ! Ur regret all this if it turns out she is pregnant with ur baby." (sic)

Since last night's online debate, Jeremy has taken to Twitter again and it looks like he's officially DONE.

"Was gonna stay quiet about the whole thing and just let it come out normally," he wrote. "First of all I'd like to let people know I'm perfectly healthy mind and body, and have took the break up privately, but when me and my family are effected by what I'd call a person with no shame." (sic)

"She is slandering me and trying to portray me in a certain light for a reason, to make me look like a terrible lad,  people can choose to believe it or not, I do not care."

"For months she was seeing Sam behind my back and now in Ibiza together," Jeremy told Twitter followers. "It will all unfold in time. People don't know what I put up with in that relationship, I was never perfect but please don't believe 90% of what she says," Jeremy begged.

Finishing the post, he simply said: "I'v messed up but I'd never be as evil. This will be my last message about her. #bookclosed." (sic)

Yikes!

Despite being a talented writer, actress and stand-up, Amy Schumer is forced to fend off hate from appearance-obsessed trolls on a daily basis, but it looks like she's refusing to let it get her down these days.

Having been inexplicably slammed after a candid snap of her in Hawaii surfaced online, Amy decided to hit back and remind the haters that they have no power over her.

In the post which has been liked a whopping 141,000 times since its upload yesterday, the 34-year-old actress began: "I meant to write "good morning trolls!" 

"I hope you find some joy in your lives today in a human interaction and not just in writing unkind things to a stranger you've never met who triggers something in you that makes you feel powerless and alone," she continued.

Refusing to take their criticism lying down, the Trainwreck star finished: "This is how I look. I feel happy. I think I look strong and healthy and also like Miss Trunchbull from Matilda. Kisses!" (sic)

Despite the thousands of likes, not everyone has Amy's back, however, and some Instagram users called her out, with one writing: "Amy is pretty chubby, but some men like fat girls…plus she has money and money makes a person a lot more attractive."

"I think the thing people have an issue with is the message Amy sends to little girls when she lashes out at Glamour magazine for featuring her in their "plus-sized" edition…sends the wrong message and tells little girls to be ashamed of their bodies if they aren't stick figures," they continued.

"Also ironic that Amy will make comedic jokes about her weight/figure but get all upset at Glamour for featuring her in the plus-sized edition," they finished.

Hmmm, we doubt Amy will let that backlash go…

He previously posted a picture of his bride-to-be, Blac Chyna, after she suffered harsh criticism for her baby weight, but it didn't phase Rob, as he captioned the picture of Chyna showing off her bump, "My beautiful babies in Miami."

It seems he's finally happy in life again.
