Ten days ago, original member of Crystal Castles Alice Glass released a statement on her website alleging that she was the victim of rape, sexual harassment and assault at the hands of her fellow band member Ethan Kath.

Alice stated that the recent wave of discussion surrounding sexual assault led to her feeling that it was time to speak out. 

Crystal Castles former manager James Sandon spoke to The Telegraph regarding the allegations, and stated that he could 'offer no further insight to these accusations,' and said that the personal relationship between Glass and Kath 'was never fully clear.'

 

A post shared by @_alice_glass on

Alice Glass has taken to Instagram to share screenshots between herself and her manager which seem to indicate that Sandon was aware that the relationship was volatile. 

In one email, Sandon describes Kath's treatment of Glass as akin to domestic violence, and that Kath would 'end up in a cell' should the abuse continue or escalate. 

'I will not be silenced by abuse and rape apologists. please repost My former manager, James Sandom, who managed ‪Crystal Castles‬ for some time recently released a misleading statement to the Telegraph UK saying that the nature of my personal relationship with Claudio was “never fully clear.”'

 

A post shared by @_alice_glass on

'I would like to set the record straight that James was very aware that I was in a personal relationship with Claudio for years, and in these corresponding emails he calls Claudio’s treatment of me DOMESTIC ABUSE.'

'James says “I’ve had enough of this shit” because this was not an isolated incident. It was something I experienced repeatedly. The abuse that I endured was not only physical and mental from Claudio, but also seen in the negligence of those who were firsthand witnesses and did not speak up.'

'I encourage everyone out there to help anyone that they feel is in an abusive relationship. All it takes is one person to help.'

 

A post shared by @_alice_glass on

Kath responded to the claims saying: 'I am outraged and hurt by the recent statements made by Alice about me and our prior relationship.'

'Her story is pure fiction and I am consulting my lawyers as to my legal options.'

'Fortunately, there are many witnesses who can and will confirm that I was never abusive to Alice.'

Twitter users were frenzied yesterday evening when POTUS Donald Trump's social media presence completely disappeared.

Trump's Twitter was off the grid for an entire 11 minutes, according to Twitter Government. 

While many online thought that the president had been hacked, it turns out that this social media sabbatical was down to human error.

'Earlier today @realdonaldtrump's account was inadvertently deactivated due to human error by a Twitter employee,' reads the statement from Twitter Government.

'The account was down for 11 minutes, and has since been restored.'

'We are continuing to investigate and are taking steps to prevent this from happening again.'

The employee who made the error was reportedly on his or her's last day of work at Twitter.

'Through our investigation we have learned that this was done by a Twitter customer support employee who did this on the employee's last day,' reads a statement from Twitter.

'We are conducting a full internal review.'

Yep, that was definitely human error all right…

It's time to dust off that CV. 

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar met with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg yesterday, and a confirmation was made that Facebook will be providing hundreds more jobs in it's Irish division. 

Ireland hosts the company’s largest headquarters outside of California, and already employs 2,000 people.

The jobs will be created across many different areas. 

'We employ over 2,000 people here now and we have quite a large footprint,'  Facebook's Gareth Lambe told Breaking News.

'We have our International Headquarters in Grand Canal, we've taken another building in East Wall, we are just completing our data centre in County Meath and expanding that, we also last year, made an aquisition of a virtual reality research company in Cork.'

'So it is by far the largest footprint Facebook has in any country outside the US.'

Varadkar is currently in the US to discuss opportunities between Ireland and the States, to grow trade and improve tourism ventures.

Following the release of his debut book, US actor Tom Hanks, has revealed that it was the beloved Irish author, Maeve Binchy, who inspired him to start writing.

The 61-year-old has just published a collection of 17 short stories called Uncommon Type – each  in some way involving a different typewriter.

But it seems it was the Dubliner's novel, Light A Penny Candle, that sparked his passion for fiction.

According to The Irish Sun, the actor said: “I fell in love with it. We all went nuts for her and I read Tara Road, Circle of Friends — I ended up going on a massive Maeve Binchy thing.”

In fact, Tom was such a big fan that he even took the time to send Maeve a letter detailing how much her loved her work.

“I actually wrote her a fan letter and I got a letter back,” he said.

The legendary novelist passed away in 2012 at the age of 73, though her influence on the world of fiction writing can still be felt today.

Uncommon Type is available to purchase from Amazon and book shops across the country.

We're all been there – you're out for a meal in swanky restaurant, decide what mouth-watering dish you're going to order, and eagerly wait its arrival so you can finally dig in.

But wait, not so fast.

No dining experience would be complete without the perfect Instagram post, right?

It's pretty much common practice in every restaurant across the world, and while some food bloggers have managed to make careers from portfolios of gorgeous food snaps, not everyone is keen on the trend.

A post shared by Bray Cottages (@braycottages) on

In a rather controversial move, The Waterside, a Michelin-starred restaurant in the UK, has banned its customers from photographing their food.

According to The Daily Mail, renowned French chef, Michel Roux, has had enough of the millennial practice and has even gone as far as to place a sign on the door saying: “No photos, please.”

He said: “I mean, what are they doing? Maybe once during the meal you want to take a little photo of something because it’s unusual. But what about the flavours? A picture on a phone cannot possibly capture the flavours.”

The popular restaurant, named fourth best in the UK, was founded by brothers Michel and Albert Roux in 1972 and is now run by Michel’s son Alain – though Michel remains an active member of staff.

Alas, it seems like Michel's efforts could be in vain, as a quick snoop through Instagram shows a number of diners choosing to blatantly ignore the ban.

Gigi Hadid has earned the respect of thousands of Twitter users after she expertly took down a far-right blogger for posting an islamophobic tweet.

On Tuesday, Laura Loomer posted a photo showing two Muslim women walking close to the scene where eight people were killed in a ISIS-inspred terror attack in New York City earlier this week.

In the caption, Laura accused the women of “rubbing [the attack] in everyone's faces” by “aimlessly walking around in hijabs.”

People were quick to condemn her comments, with many branding the ignorant post as “ridiculous” and “digusting.”

One notable figure to speak put against Laura's controversial tweet was US supermodel, Gigi Hadid.

Clearly furious with the statment, the 22-year-old wrote: “Laura, I hate to give you the attention, but I need to tell you- You're a f**king moron.”

Laura then hit back at the star, saying: “Every verified liberal in Hollywood & MSM is tweeting at me today. I guess I really pissed them off!. It's not like I killed 8 ppl…”

To which Gigi replied: “alas.. your RT only proves your classless desperation to spread hate for attention..”

Needless to say, her expertly executed response went down well with fans.

Bravo, Gigi. Bravo.
