George Clooney and Channing Tatum have been out in force this week promoting their upcoming film Hail, Caesar!

And it seems that the pair have developed a bit of a bromance during the film as demonstrated by this clip from an interview with E! Online. 

It seems that Channing has become so enamoured by his co-star, he offered him a part in the third instalment of the Magic Mike series.

"If he would do Magic Mike 3, I would give him all of my part of the money," said Channing. 

They then proceeded to come up with George's stripper name by using the 'name of your first pet and the first street you lived on' technique and well it was better then anyone could imagine. 

Watch the clip below:

Ireland's very own Aidan Turner has just topped the poll as the 2016's Sexiest Man Alive award according to reader's of Glamour Magazine. 

The prestigious title, which has been won in previous years by Chris Helmsworth and Henry Cavill, crowned the Dublin man yesterday. 

Turner, who has seen a drastic rise to success this year after his turn as the brooding Poldark in the revival of the hit BBC series, is notoriously private and probably a bit mortified by the win. 

Yeah, we can totally see why he won… 

And it turns out that another certain Irish man made it into second place with Down man Jamie Dornan taking the number two spot. 

And it was British actor Tom Hiddleston that finished third. 

The rest of the top ten consisted of two One Direction's members (present and former) and a certain other American pop-star. 

Glamour's sexiest men of the year top ten:

  1. Aidan Turner
  2. Jamie Dornan
  3. Tom Hiddleston
  4. Henry Cavill
  5. Zayn Malik
  6. Harry Styles
  7. Justin Bieber
  8. Robert Pattinson. 
  9. Matt Bomer
  10. Prince Harry

Despite what we see on Instagram, their apps and of course the last eleven seasons of KUWTK, there's still a lot of the sisters' personal lives that we're not privy to.

Take their homes, for example. While we often see the family hanging by Khloé's pool or eating in Kris' kitchen, it's rare that we get a proper widescreen glimpse at any of the rooms.

Until now. Just today, Architecural Digest published an inside look at both Khloé and Kourtney's recently redesigned Calabasas mansions, and they are both downright incredible.

Despite having very different styles – "Khloé’s place is glamorous, which suits her style. Mine is much more restrained and modern," says Kourt – the sisters went for the same interior designer, Martyn Lawrence Bullard.

So what does a recdecorated house look like if your budget is quite literally endless? Amazing, it turns out. 

First up, here's a look at Kourtney's gaff…

That artwork/those abs:

Her stunning bathroom:

That GIGANTIC living room:

Penelope's room (complete with Hermés bedspread) and Reign's nursery:

"Both of the girls were ready for something fresh," Martyn tells the magazine, noting that Khloé's home was originally owned by Justin Bieber.

"Khloé’s house was a giant play palace built for a boisterous young man. We decided to give it some romance, bringing it back to its Mediterranean roots."

With all signs of Bieber-ness erased, Khloé's home is a decadent palace of femininity.

Can we take a moment for her shoe closet?

Not to mention that hella organised pantry, which we've seen some peeks at before:

Standard living room, draped in pure white wall hangings, y'know yourself:

Another sitting room for bigger groups:

Her bedroom:

And of course, the cinema screening room:

Can we just move in, please?

We all know that the modern Irish person is relatively health conscious and we all know that we love our food, so when a new restaurant or deli opens up there tends to be a bit of a furore. 

Well not only a furore but a very long queue developed outside of the new Chopped premises which opened at the top of Grafton Street (opposite Trinity College) today. 

Chopped is an Irish owned healthy eatery offering customers a selection of healthy salads and sandwiches at VERY reasonable prices. 

It has several stores across the capital including on Baggot Street and in Ballsbridge. 

And since the new premises on Grafton Street was offering FREE salads up until 1pm, we guess we would probably hop in the queue too. 

But if you missed out on the free salads earlier on, to celebrate their opening they are offering half price salads for the rest of the day so if you have some spare time, it's well worth the wait.

As well as being a supportive husband, smitten father and all round gorgeous man, David Beckham is just a genuinely lovely guy.

At least that's what we've concluded after hearing about the sweet gesture David made toward a total stranger on the street in London this week.

Cycle-paramedic Catherine Maynard was helping a pensioner who had fallen on the street  when she noticed a passer-by who looked very familiar.

"I was waiting with my patient for an ambulance to transfer him to hospital and although I was keeping him warm it was very cold outside,” she explained.

"All of a sudden, I looked up and saw someone who looked like David Beckham walking past us.

"He said hello and got in his car… Ten minutes later, he came back with a cup of coffee for me and a tea for the patient."

"We were both very amused, and flattered," says Catherine of her reaction.

"It was awful cycling around in the cold and I couldn't believe it when he came back with some hot drinks – I was so chuffed."

Too cute. Catherine's employer, The London Ambulance Service has praised David for his sweet gesture, and is encouraging others to make their own random acts of kindness á la Mr. Beckham.

So while the original three shades of Kylie Jenner's Lip Kit all played with nude and brown tones, it seems that Kylie is all ready to add at least one striking colour to the super popular Lip Kit range. 

And it's perfection. 

Kylie shared a snap of herself wearing a bright orange/ red shade to her Instagram with the caption: "Could this be a new lip kit color? ;)"

And it seems she answered her own question as the 18-year-old shared a video of her red lips with the caption directing users towards the Lip Kit Instagram page.

A video posted by King Kylie (@kyliejenner) on

Kylie is planning to release a Valentine's collection and one of the shades picked is a creamy, dull-tone pink shade as shared by the star on social media. 

We reckon this classic red lip is going to be shade two. 

We just want them ALL.

Every year Vanity Fair treats us to it's Hollywood issue and calls in the top stars to feature on it's extended front cover.

The issue tends to come out just in time for the Oscars and usually features a number of the nominees for the top awards pictured all together by renowned fashion photographer Annie Liebovitz.

This years issue comes at an awkward time as rumblings of diversity issues are rippling through the film industry and the Academy Awards have vowed to make historic changes to the prestigious awards ceremony to tackle the problems. 

In an interesting move, editors decided to features only women on this year's cover and our very own Saoirse Ronan made the cut. 

Featured among the likes of relative newcomers Alicia Vikander and Brie Larson, also snapped are cinema stalwarts such as Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda and Helen Mirren. 

 

The main front cover of the issue went to Hollywood darling Jennifer Lawrence alongside Cate Blanchett, Viola Davis and Jane Fonda. 

Saorise is up for the award of Best Actress at this years ceremony for her turn in the film, Brooklyn.

It's been less than week since Zayn Malik hit us with his debut solo single and it seems that there's no stopping the 23-year-old now. 

The former One Direction singer has given us a ten second preview of another track that is purported to be on his upcoming album called Mind of Mine. 

The short clip which Zayn shared on his Twitter feed, shows him topless nodding along to the new track which seems to be titled Late Nights. 

It has a laid back moody feel and we think it would definitely make for another hit. 

And it seems that Zayn's legions of fans would tend to agree:

We reckon they're excited.

After living out of Ireland for a few years, coming back to Dublin from Australia was a bit of a reverse culture shock.

GAA bars, Guinness signs and Irish-Italian chippers on every corner takes some getting used to, but I have fully embraced being back in the land where Barry’s tea is available on tap and the bus driver will (usually) give you a cheery hello as you climb aboard.

That said, there are a few things I had forgotten about my native soil that hit me smack in the face within 24 hours of returning…

The cyclists here are downright crazy
I’ve never seen anything like the wanton disregard for personal safety you see on the streets of Dublin as cyclists weave in and out of cars, overtake buses on the inside and routinely power thorough red lights. And what is the story with no-one wearing helmets? If this was any other city, you’d be slapped with a $280 fine.

 

Our butter is a nectar sent from heaven
Irish butter is better, fact. Fill me with your glorious buttered goods.

 

We can't take compliments for the life of us
We're a nation of abashed deflectors and every time sometime gives us a compliment, we refuse to accept it. The following happens at every single social occasion, every single day, in Ireland.

Friend: "Ooooh, I like your dress! Is it new?"
Me: "WHAT? €4 in Penney's, sure it makes me look like the back end of a bus. The STAAAAATE of me."
(Me, internally: "Awwwh thanks, I love this dress too!”)

 

Our youths are immune to the cold
A skirt, bare legs and a crop top… in January? What is this madness, teenage girls of Dublin? There is no physical way you’re not absolutely frozen – but I applaud your commitment to getting the legs out, come hail, rain or Storm Jonas.

 

You're never more than 100 feet from someone eating a Spar chicken roll
Hot delis are everywhere. Honestly. Ireland has an abundance of places selling jambons and sausage rolls, a strangely comforting fact.

 

Meal deals are the life-giver
The noble meal deal just doesn’t exist outside of Ireland (and the UK). Tesco, Boots, Centra, M&S – the options for you to get a sambo, snack and drink are endless. Australia desperately needs to catch up on this one – sometimes you just need a quick chicken and stuffing sandwich to tide you over.

 

Taxi drivers here are all about the chat
Taxi drivers outside of Ireland have a tendency to not engage with their customers and you could end up going on your airport run in total silence – or worse, listening to your driver yabber on the phone to their pals. Not in Dublin – here you’re treated to stories of children applying for the CAO, thoughts on local politics and my personal favourite – “last night, I picked up a fella who…”

 

The tram system here is laughable
What even is the Luas? Want to get from Heuston to Sandyford? Hahahaha.. GOOD LUCK. That 10km journey will take you a solid hour on public transport, not forgetting you’d have a nice 20 minute walk to get from Abbey Street to St. Stephen’s Green. As for the buses… Oh dear, oh dear.

On a more sombre note…. Homelessness is a major problem
One of the things that shocked me most when I came back to Dublin was the astonishing number of homeless people out on the streets. Regardless of how or why they’re there, it’s awful to think of someone spending their night in the freezing cold shadow of the Central Bank. If you’re interested in getting involved with a homeless charity in Dublin, click here for Dublin Simon Community or here for Merchants Quay Ireland.

Adele has been forced to issue a statement regarding the use of her music at rallies during the presidential election process in the States this week. 

Most notably, Donald Trump has been using the 2011 smash hit Rolling in the Deep before coming out on stage during rallies in Iowa. 

Many people were infuriated by the use of her music for a political campaign and not least it seems, the British songstress herself. 

"Adele has not given permission for her music to be used for any political campaigning," a spokesperson for the singer has said in a statement. 

The businessman-come-politician has also used Adele's James Bond theme song Skyfall during previous speeches he has made. 

And he is not the only candidate to use the 27-year-old's music. Another republican potential, Mike Huckabee, also released a parody of Hello on YouTube last week. 

Attorney's for Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler have also sent letters to the Donald Trump camp asking them to "cease and desist" from using the band's song Dream On for his campaign. 

"[Mr. Trump] not have our client's permission to use Dream On," said the letters. 

"[It] gives the false impression that he is connected with or endorses Mr Trump's presidential bid."

Yeah maybe Donald should stick to using his own bonkers theme song in future (that's if he is still even in the running, of course).

So first Wiz Khalifa felt the full force of Kanye West's social media rage and now it seems that a very lucky audience member has run off with his blinged-out Rolex watch. 

As seen in a piece of footage taken at the gig, Wiz bent down to greet crowd-goers and it seems a cheeky fan (or perhaps a Kanye fan) managed to slip the watch off the rapper's wrist. 

The 28-year-old can be seen to scramble after the piece of jewellery but it seems it was already lost to the sweaty abyss of the crowd.

Tough luck, Wiz. 

The American rapper hit headlines last week after he faced a barrage of tweets from Yeezus himself following some critical tweets about the name of Kanye's upcoming album. 

The watch is purported to cost about 100,000 US dollars which roughly equates to just over 90,000 euro. 

Watch the moment the watch is lost below:

When Jeremy McConnell made his shocking revelation about Scotty T's 'secret girlfriend' following his eviction from the Celebrity Big Brother house last week, we were all up in arms about WHO would put up with the Geordie lothario and his antics. 

Jeremy revealed on Big Brother's Bit on the Side on Friday that Scotty T had not been up-front about his relationship status in the house. 

"There’s this girl he’s seeing that he likes, but his job is to have sex and to be on TV," said the model to host Rylan Clark. 

"You can’t have a girlfriend when you’re doing a job like that."

And now it seems that the identity of Scotty's secret lady love has been revealed. 

As reported by the Sun, the Geordie Shore star is dating 21-year-old Francesca Toole who also hails from Newcastle. 

The young aspiring model was once a contestant for the Miss Newcastle title and according to reports, the pair have been spending the last several months together including the Christmas period. 

And the reports are at least partially confirmed by the pretty brunette's Instagram which features herself and Scotty T looking very close. 

Francesca even shared a pic of the pair kissing just a week before Scotty entered the CBB house with the caption: "Can't believe Christmas is all over for another year looking forward to 2016."

So either Scotty is just playing up to the cameras or Stephanie has not been the only contestant to cheat in the house this year…
