When it comes to acceptance speeches, it doesn't get much more emotional than the Oscars.

Over the course of its 87-year run, the Academy Awards have played host to hundreds upon hundreds of A-list stars, and provided a platform for some of the most memorial speeches of all time.

From tearful tributes to family members (and God, natch) to heartfelt words of thanks, Hollywood's biggest and brightest really know how to hit us right in the feels.

And here are just six of the most emotional…

1. Heath Ledger's family accepting the award on the late actor's behalf.

2. Halle Berry making history as she was the only black woman to have won a Best Actress Academy Award.

3. Anna Paquin's dumbstruck reaction has got to be one of the most endearing in Academy history.

4. Cuba Gooding Jr literally jumping for joy after winning Best Supporting Actor back in 1997.

5. Russell Crowe's heartfelt tribute to the every man struck a chord back in 2001.

6. And then there was the moment Leonardo DiCaprio FINALLY got his hands on that little gold man.

Speaking of award shows, have you voted the inaugural SHEmazing Awards yet?!

With 16 categories to consider and oodles of talent to pay tribute to around the country, make sure you let your voice be heard!

When Isabella Villegas heard that her 13-year-old sister had felt compelled to change her shirt after teachers made remarks over her choice of clothing, the 18-year-old made a T-shirt for her sibling to wear if she ever finds herself in that situation again.

And Twitter is now begging the Isabella to print more so they too can get their hands on one.

Speaking to BuzzFeed, 13-year-old Grace Villegas explained that after choosing to wear an off-the-shoulder blouse to school, she felt pressure from teachers to swap her new top for an alternative one.

"Instantly, I was like, 'Okay, I'm going to get dress-coded,' and I felt the need to change," Grace explained.

Furious that her younger sister was subject to judgement, Isabella made Grace a T-shirt to keep in her locker if she ever feels pressure to conform again.

And the message emblazoned across the plain white shirt has struck a serious chord with Twitter users in recent days.

"Dress Code: Promotes the objectification and sexualization of young bodies, blames the wearer for the onlooker's perceptions/actions, perpetuates rape culture, is B.S." it reads.

After the post racked up thousands of likes, queries into the availability of the shirt began pouring in, with one Twitter user writing: "Are you selling these on etsy yet??"

"If you started printing shirts with this on it, I'd for real buy one," added another.

Due to popular demand, Isabella decided to go ahead and make more shirts, telling the Twitosphere; "We are gonna start printing shirts!! anyone who wants one DM me so i can get an idea of how many to order!"

And that's how it's done.

The first day back in the office after St. Patrick's Day is always a tough one, but with the help of Emma Watson and her kittens we thought we'd get through it.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's meant to be after we recently learned that we're in for one hell of a week weather-wise.

According to Met Éireann, the Irish nation should brace themselves for freezing temperatures, widespread showers, sleet and… wait for it… snow.

That's right ladies, we might be only days away from April, but that doesn't mean we've escaped the worst of the weather.

The Met Éireann website breaks it down, saying: "It will turn cold quickly after dark with frost setting in early tonight. There will be fairly widespread showers too, with some falling as sleet and snow even at low levels."

"They will be heaviest and most frequent in the western half of the country, where a few centimetres are likely, especially so on high ground. Lowest temperatures between +1 and -1 C., with icy patches also."

Oh, joy!

While accepting the National Equality award at this year's Human Rights Campaign gala, Katy Perry revealed that a staunch anti-gay rhetoric had informed most of her childhood and adolescence.

Born into a conservative and religious family, Katy was taught from a young age that the LGBT community was something to fear.

"When I was growing up, homosexuality was synonymous with the word 'abomination' and 'hell'," she explained. "So most of my unconscious adolescence, I prayed the gay away at my Jesus camps."

During the impassioned speech supporting the gay community, the singer revealed that with the support of friends she began to understand her own sexuality, and ultimately realised her perception of the LGBT community had been utterly skewed.

"There is no other community that has done more to shape who I am today, and there is no other community that I believe in more than you," she said.

Delving further still, the 32-year-old singer explained that her own experiences contradicted the teachings of her church and family.

Referring to her debut single, I Kissed a Girl, Katy added: "Truth be told, I did more than that. But how I was I going to reconcile that with a gospel-singing girl raised in youth groups that were pro-conversion camps?"

Katy finished her well-received speech with a promise, saying: "I'll never cease to be a champion, an ally, a spotlight, and a loving voice for all LGBTQ-identifying people."

No one said that this morning would be easy, but Lord we didn't think it would be THIS hard.

After three days of fun and frivolity, the good folk at SHEmazing! HQ are feeling a little ropey, and in an effort to soothe our exhausted (and hungover) heads we've watched footage of Emma Watson playing with kittens… over and over again.

And lads, it really works.

In addition to chatting about her role as Belle in Beauty and the Beast for BuzzFeed, Emma gushed over the kittens and gave everyone here a serious case of the feels.

Take a look at this…

Earlier this month, Suzanne Jackson appeared on The Six O'Clock Show, which ended up being described as her "worst television interview ever."

The beauty blogger appeared on the show, which aired a segment on lambing season just before her interview.

When Suzanne left TV3, she took to Snapchat to vent her frustration, saying: "Guys, that was the worst television interview I've ever done.

 

A post shared by Suzanne Jackson (@sosueme_ie) on

"Five minutes before I went on TV they started talking about this lamb that was going to be slaughtered and I honestly just couldn't do my interview properly."

However, now the TV station has hit back, saying she "never made [her frustration] known" before leaving the studio.

Sources at the Irish station reportedly told the Mail on Sunday: "Is Suzanne the only person in the country who is unaware that a segment on lambing season would involve talking about what happens to the lambs?

 

A post shared by Suzanne Jackson (@sosueme_ie) on

"The lamb in question is alive and was sent back to the farm after the show. However, Suzanne never made it known that she was in any way affected or 'upset'.

"So we were very surprised, to say the least, that she walked out to the car park to her Mercedes and sat on her leather seats and snapchatted about how ‘upset’ she was at what happens to the lamb.

"Is she that unaware of what happens during lambing season," the source added.

Just when we thought Victoria Beckham officially hung up her Spice Girls boots, her son Romeo has come out to tell us differently.

The 14-year-old shared a post on Instagram this weekend, captioning the image, "When my mum goes to Starbucks!!"

The picture showed Victoria's coffee cup with the name 'Posh' written on it.

 

When my mum goes to Starbucks!!

SO much love.

Many fans were quick to comment on the snap, with one follower saying, "This makes me so happy," and another writing, "That's so cute!"

Victoria recently came out to say she won't be a part of the Spice Girls reunion, but knowing that she'll always be Posh Spice just made the teen in us very happy.

Black highlighter is officially taking over our social media feeds as the new coolest way to strobe your face. 

We appreciate that it sounds kind of scary but trust us, it looks amazing. 

Jeffree Star introduced us to the joys of the darker shades with his amazing Onyx Ice Skin Frost Highlighter, and we've been hooked ever since. 

 

A post shared by Jerrod Blandino (@jerrodblandino) on

Black highlighter is the perfect addition to any makeup bag, as it can be used to achieve the perfect smokey eye, dabbed on lipstick for a vampy effect, and used on your cheekbones for an alternative contour.

Our favourite makeup brand, Two Faced, are getting in on the black highlighter action.

The brand's founder, Jerrod Blandino, recently shared an image on his popular Instagram, where he teased us about a new product. 

"Finally got my samples from the lab. These are going to become something AmazeBalls," he captioned the snap, that showed three compacts filled with lace-looking powders. 

 

A post shared by Too Faced Cosmetics (@toofaced) on

The three pans of powder appear different, with the one in the centre looking like a typical, pinky highlighter.

The two pans either side of this classic cosmetic are a beautiful combination of black and gold, that will totally change up your makeup game.

Currently, we have no information as to when these products will officially launch, but we will be waiting with baited breath.

Don't get us wrong, we love cats and kittens. But saying that, we don't want them mixed in with our make-up.

First spotted on Geek.com, cosmetics brand Felissimo Nekobu creates beauty products "meant to evoke feelings of cuddling and kissing cats."

That all sounds well and good, but we're not too sure about its latest item on the market.

The brand created a lipgloss that feels like your kissing a kitten's nose when you apply it… But, you rub lipgloss all over your mouth, and we don't particularly fancy rubbing a kitten's nose all over our lips now, do we?

The product, named 'Neko no hana ni kisu shita mitai – hinyari ohana', or in other words, 'It’s like I’ve just kissed a cat’s nose – a pleasantly cool nose', all come with a "kitten milk" scent, and we're just properly freaked out by it all.

We love cats and want to cuddle them all day, errr'day, but this cosmetics brand may have gone a tad too far with this one.
