What a sweetie.

Nine year old Jacob Tremblay delivers a heart-wrenching performance in the Oscar-nominated Room, and he proved last night that he's just as much of a winner off screen.

Stepping on stage to speak after winning the Critics' Choice Best Young Actor Award, Jacob declared the win as "super cool," adding that it must have been "a super hard vote because of all the other great actors in this category."

After struggling to reach the microphone – even while standing on a box – Jacob soon found his feet and went on to thank Team Room "who is Lenny, Brie, Emma, Ed and, um, all the other producers over there."

How adorable?! And we're clearly not the only ones who think so:

Jacob finished up his speech by saying he knew exactly where to put his award… "On the shelf beside my Millennium Falcon."

While little Jacob isn't up for an Oscar for his role in Room, he'll no doubt get a chance to step on stage at some point.

The Irish-made film is up for a whole host of awards on the night including Best Director, Best Actress and Best Picture.

Niall Horan has been making an effort to live life as a 'normal' 22-year-old since his One Direction hiatus began, but one thing which might be hard to get used to again is life at home in Mullingar.

The singer's brother, Greg Horan, took to Twitter over the weekend to publicly blast his brother for not being there for him, saying he wished he himself was "dead."

Greg's tweets, which he deleted soon after posting, certainly didn't paint his younger brother in a great light.

"I wish I was dead simple as life couldn't get any worse," the father-of-one wrote.

"Iv been rejected by Niall since November 2010 and all the support I gave him down through the years there is the truth goodbye [sic]."

However the 28-year-old took to social media again the following day, claiming there was really "nothing wrong" between the siblings.

 

 

"Guys I'm grand stop worrying about me I love niall nothing wrong with us at all," he said.

It's not the first time Greg has taken to social media to hit out about his brother. In October 2014 he made a less-than-subtle dig at the fact that the singer had been neglectling his duties as an uncle to Greg's young son Theo.

"'I wonder when Niall is calling to see Theo I do wonder," he wrote before again deleting the tweet.

As for Niall, there has been no word from him about the rumoured bust-up, though he did take to Twitter earlier this month to let fans know he was just "keeping [his] head down" and enjoying time at home.

We miss it dearly while it's gone, and whine like a little puppy when we don't know how to fill our OITNB void.

But fear not, because the ladies of Litchfield Prison will be coming back to us very soon. 

Variety has confirmed that the season 4 premiere date for Orange Is The New Black is June 17, 2016. Yay!

They are also switching days, and this season the show will be on Fridays… Because Netflix bosses know we need a full weekend to binge on it.

Release dates were also set for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (April 15) and, after much uncertainty, it has been confirmed that Jessica Jones will be back this year.

Whether you love Christmas, or dislike it, you will ALWAYS have a little bop to Christmas FM when it comes on in the car, especially when it's your fave festive tune.

And in the festive season just gone, Christmas FM made a lot of people happy, and not just the ones dancing along in the back seat.

The volunteer radio station made over a quarter of a million Euro in their fund raising efforts last year; nearly double of what it has made in years gone by. 

The stations nominated charity is Make-A-Wish Ireland, who received €265,000 this week.

Most of the money raised was made on 'Donation Day', where the radio DJs urged the public to donate what they can. On that day alone, the charity station made a massive €125,000.

“We are completely blown away by the generosity of our listeners this year with over €265,000 donated over the course of the campaign,” station co-founder Garvan Rigby said this week.

During the week there were reports that One Direction's hiatus was going to last a little bit longer than expected… As in, it would last forever.

And of course, the Internet went into a complete frenzie.

But, fear not, because Liam Payne has cleared up any rumours going around, and also released a snippet from his new song. All in a day's work, heh?

While being papped by TMZ photographers, Liam made it clear that they will get back together, uttering "no, no, no, no, no," when asked if the hiatus is actually a break-up.

Then later, went on to share this to fans:

Instagram upgraded its search function last year to make it easier for us to find people we know, but now the social media giant is about to embark on a new feature which will make stalking, erm, we mean searching, even more handier.

Until now, if you wanted to see who follows you, you'd have to go into your followers on your profile and then scroll through until you found the person you're looking for, which we all know can takes aaages.

But with IG's new update, all you have to do is put their name into the search bar and the new results panel will tell you straight away if someone is following you or not. Simple!

But, Mashable is reporting a even better twist that will make searching even easier. 

It can also highlight users who have recently shared a new photo which means you'll be able to see if your crush follows you and know exactly when they post new Insta's, which, as we all know, is really important.

The new search is currently being testing on a few lucky iOS users, so hopefully within the year we'll all have it.

After disappointing many fans in 2015 with no new music, Kanye West promised that each and every Friday, he would debut a new track from his album this year.

And, yep, he's already let us down, skipping out on last Friday's release. Less than two weeks after he promised us. *Sarcastic clapping*.

But not to fear, as his wife, Kim Kardashian, came to his rescue to clear things up.

The reality star took to social media to excuse her husband for being a no-show. In the tweet, Kim said: "I soooo didn’t mean to lie to you guys about GOOD FRIDAYS coming back.

"Kanye flew to Italy for a Yeezy Season 3 fitting. He flew Noah out with him so he could finish ‘No More Parties In La’ & wrote 90 bars on the plane there!!!”

She then assured her his fans that the new song will be coming soon and Kanye went straight to the studio to finish it.

Bit late now, Kanye.

If you are a Friends fan (who isn't) then you will love this proposal video.

Mitesh decided he wanted to do something special for when he proposed to his girlfriend, Anisha.

And since Friends is her favourite TV show, he recreated the famous yellow chair and lamp that is seen in the opening credits of the show.

For any Friends or 90s lover, this is a dream come true. Hint, hint, boys.

We do love our pub crawls in Ireland, and Christmas time isn't the only time of the year you can do one, you know.

So, one Reddit user decided to put together the ultimate pub crawl in Dublin.

The user, tyr, came up with the handiest way to reach most bars, so, starting from J O'Connell's on Richmond Street, he made a straight line all the way down to the George on George's Street where you finish your night.

There's over 25 bars and pubs to get through though, so you'd either want to start very early, or skip a few.

Either way, it'll make for an interesting night out.

If you have a story, video or anything else you think we’d love, catch us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or hello@shemazing.ie. The best submission EVERY month wins a €50 shopping voucher!

To be fair, when we first found out that Scotty T from Geordie Shore was entering the Big Brother house, we knew he was going to have some sort of hook-up.

He is a member of the Buckin' Squad, afterall. So, it's no surprise that Scott has hooked up with Megan McKenna for the third time this season.

The reality stars were caught on camera having a steamy smooch in the hot tub on Saturday night, with viewers being able to see what happened on tonight's episode of the show.

Of course, it was the Geordie lad who initiated the kiss, pulling Megan in with his arm as she sat back in a black swimsuit.

It was CBB's Twitter who spilled the beans, putting a gif of their kiss up and writing, "after the gunge, a lunge."

However, the brunette told Jeremy McConnell and Stephanie Davis during the week that they are just friends… But we can see this hot tub snog changing that.

Because Snoop's Xbox Live was down, he decided to narrate Planet Earth, or what he likes to call, "Plizzanet Earth."

The contrast between Snoop's voice and David Attenborough's voice is just too much to handle, and SD has a brilliant way of telling you what's going on.

Watch, listen, and be merry, because this is what the Internet was made for.
