The weekend is finally here and we honestly couldn’t be happier. We are so ready to relax and leave the stress of the past week behind us.
We have certainly got that Friday feeling but we honestly haven’t got the energy to do anything other than sprawl across the sofa for the foreseeable future.
We’ll be tuning into everyone’s favourite Corkman Graham Norton and as per usual, the presenter has got some pretty brilliant guests this week.
Will Smith will join Graham to talk about playing the iconic genie in the live-action Aladdin. Naomi Scott, who stars as Princess Jasmine, will also join her co-star to chat about the pressure of playing such a famous Disney princess.
Comedian Kevin Hart will also be on the sofa to talk all about his upcoming projects, including The Secret Life of Pets 2.
Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer completes the line-up. The actress will discuss her successful career and iconic roles in Hidden Figures and The Help. She will also share details about her new movie The Witches too.
Viewers can also look forward to music from Shakespears Sister.
The Graham Norton Show airs on BBC1 on May 10 at 10: 35 pm.

The Canadian stuntman is reminiscent of cult favourite characters like Super Dave Osborne and Evel Knievel, and is very nostalgic of the 1970s.
Duke Caboom is always prepared to show off his stunt posing with swagger and confidence, leaving the other Toy Story 4 characters confused and with many questions.
Woody quickly notices that Duke has an Achilles heel: he can't actually do any awesome stunt work which is advertised in his personal toy commercial.
As it turns out, Duke has been sitting in an antique store, reliving the tragic personal failures of times gone by.
The fourth Toy Story offering is directed by Josh Cooley and features the voice talents of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Annie Potts, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, Maddie McGraw, Jordan Peele, Ally Maki, Don Rickles and Christina Hendricks, among many others.
Toy Story 4 will "crash into theatres" on June 20 of this year, so it's not long now to wait to see our beloved heroes once more.
Disney moves can be our saviour when it comes to being a parent.
Plonk them in front of one of the classics and you'll get some peace and quiet – as well as a brilliant story to your kids to enjoy.
Which is exactly what Kelly Clarkson does with her daughter, four-year-old River Rose.
The 36-year-old told Entertainment Tonight that she tried to tell her daughter about the mechanics behind voicing an animated character – and it backfired.
She said, ''I was explaining to her, because she was confused, and I said, ‘It’s my voice. Like, you know, like how Elsa and Anna, there’s a person that plays Elsa and Anna?’ And I didn’t get what I was doing!”
She continued, ''I pretty much crushed her dreams. I didn’t really realise what I was doing.''
She added, ''But she’s very clever. She would’ve figured it out, after finding out that I’m [a voice in UglyDolls]. I’m justifying it to make myself feel better.”
Kelly says how awful she felt when she realised her blunder and how she ruined the fantasy for River.
She said, ''I saw her little face, and I just saw the wheels spinning and I was like, ‘Oh no!…But isn’t it exciting that you can meet the real girl that plays Elsa?’”
She continued, ''I was like, ‘Let’s flip this into a positive!’ It was so sad.”
Kelly is also mum to three-year-old son Remy, and we're sure she won't be making any more slip-ups when it comes to iconic kids movies again.
The collaboration has three-pieces including a nine shade eyeshadow palette, a lipstick, as well as a bronzer all inspired by Jasmine.
Disney announced this MAC collaboration after the release of the full length trailer for the Aladdin live-action film to release May 24.
MAC took to Instagram to announce the good news.
They wrote, ''Your wish, our command. Manifest your magic with The Disney Aladdin Collection by MAC. Launching this May, this wish-fulfilling collaboration highlights the self-determination and confidence of Princess Jasmine in the upcoming live-action adaptation of Disney’s animated classic, Aladdin – in theatres May 24.”
Fans were delighted and took to the comments to say so.
One said, ''I am so ready to buy the lipstick!!''
While another wrote, ''Best ever colab I could ever imagine.''
The collaboration is centered around Jasmine's powerful character as a woman – self-determined, strong and confident.
The eyeshadows don't have any names, but the colours are stunning and the nine shades includes mattes, shimmers and jewel tones in mauve purple, red and pink blush tones, as well as gold shimmers.
It is impossible for us to walk into Penneys without buying something, whether that’s a pair of pyjamas, a giant pack of tealights or a t-shirt that we don’t really need, but it’s on sale for €2 and you can never say no to such a bargain, right?
We have been crazy about Penneys' Disney collections and their latest range is by far the cutest.
Penneys have teamed up with Disney to bring you a brand-new range of classic Dumbo products.
Landing in stores from March 11, this range is compiled of 62 products perfect for little ones and adults alike.
With everything from the cutest kidswear, adorable accessories and kitsch kitchenware, this collection will delight all Disney fans.
With prices ranging from €3.50 to €22 head down to Penneys to get your hands on this must-have collection.
There’s no doubt we’ll be sprinting to our nearest store to stock up on the Dumbo range.
Disney's live-action reboot of The Lion King may well break box office records, judging by the insane level of excitement built up around it.
The flick nailed an all-star cast featuring the original Mufasa himself (James Earl Jones), Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, Donald Glover (AKA Childish Gambino), Chiwetel Ejiofor, John Oliver, John Kani, Eric Andre, Keegan Michael-Key and…
Who are we forgetting?
Oh yes… BEYONCÉ KNOWLES-CARTER as Nala. We're slain.
Naturally, there's an ecstatic amount of nostalgia, especially from us 90s kids out there. Thankfully, during last night's Oscars ceremony, Disney released an extended The Lion King trailer and we died.
How can we possibly wait until July 2019 to see Jon Favreau's epic Pride Lands tale, based on Shakespeare's Hamlet?
More live-action reboots are on the way, following the success of The Jungle Book, which boasts the same director as The Lion King. Dumbo, directed by Tim Burton will arrive in theatres this March, followed by Guy Ritchie's Aladdin in May.
Just like The Jungle Book, Favreau's Lion King uses CGI to bring an entirely animal cast to life in an incredibly realistic-looking format.
Donald Glover, This Is America musical legend, stars as Simba, the orphaned lion cub who returns to Pride Rock to take his place as king.
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter plays Simba's love interest, Nala, while Chiwetel Ejiofor plays the villainous scar. Seth Rogen and Billy Eicher were cast as Pumbaa and Timon, Simba's beloved comic relief companions
We honestly won't be able to see this in cinema, we'd have to be restrained due to the sheer excitement of it all. Cannot cope.
The epitome of cuteness, these treats inspired by our favourite childhood tales are making us seriously nostalgic for our old VCR machine.
Unfortunately you wont find these macaroon morsels in Ladurée any time soon, as these treats are currently only being created in speciality bakeries the world over.
It seems like such a long time ago when Frozen first hit our screens, bringing incredible music, stunning animation and beautiful characters for every age to enjoy. Let It Go became an anthem, winning dozens of awards along the way.
Our favourite ice Queen Elsa and her loving sister Anna were torn apart as children when Elsa's magical powers became too hard to control.
The massively successful film saw the siblings reunite alongside some hilarious and charming friends; the comedic snowman Olaf, stubborn Kristoff and his trusty reindeer, Sven.
Finally, a trailer for the much-anticipated sequel has been released, and Elsa doesn't look like she's in Arendelle anymore.
Elsa must brave an entirely new element in the teaser trailer from Disney, which shows the Queen (played by Idina Menzel) conquering a gigantic wave of the ocean and joining familiar faces like Princess Anna, Olaf and Kristoff.
Directors Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck once again join forces for the film, as well as song-writer married couple Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.
Lee is co-writing the script with Hidden Figures scribe Allison Schroeder, hinting to Variety that the upcoming adventure will be "bigger" and "more epic" than the initial release; “They’re going to go far out of Arendelle."
Frozen became an instant sensation after it was released back in 2013, raking in over $1.3 billion at the box office, as well as two Academy Awards.
It's also the highest-grossing animated film ever made, and the 13th biggest flick of all time. It was even adapted as a Broadway musical last year, and was nominated for three Tonys.
Frozen 2 hits the cinemas on November 22, get ready for the return of our favourite magical sisters.
Toy Story 4 is making its big return in the summer of 2019, coming to screens this June, despite the fact that most fans feel a satisfying ending has already happened.
The commercially-acclaimed Toy Story 3 ended the franchise on a perfect note, seeing Andy off to college and saying a tearful goodbye to Woody and the gang.
The fourth instalment really does appear to be the finale of the iconic Pixar movies, centring around toys who come to life.
In the latest series of teaser clips, Bo Beep has announced her big return to Woody and Buzz' gang, thank God. We love a bitta female representation. Especially when they're wielding a large stick.
Tom Hanks, the voice of Woody, has said that he couldn't even look at the rest of the team and cast while recording the ending to the movie. My EMOTIONS.
Bo Beep has got a new-look, and she's looking badass AF. They've also introduced two new (adorable) characters, Ducky and Bunny.
We all remember the glamorous pre-Reputation days of Taylor Swift's #squad, don't we?
Between Cara Delevigne, Karlie Kloss, Gigi Hadid and Hailee Steinfeld, they really were an influential troupe.
Now it looks like Taylor's squad has been reignited, with new bestie Cazzie David and long-time friend Selena Gomez enjoying a gals night in with the singer.
The Look What You Made Me Do songtress captioned the snap;"20wineteen", and we are HERE for the vino appreciation.
The trio are clearly enjoying each other’s company, and the glasses of wine too, no doubt.
The candid picture shows Swift's best pal Selena laughing in the back, while Taylor is sporting her signature red lipstick and Cazzie smiles in between them.
David also shared a similar photo to her Instagram, featuring Selena and Taylor in a cute polaroid photo.
The fellow actress jokingly captioned the shot; "Had a meet and greet for my fans last night. I love you all."
Now THAT is a meet and greet we want to attend.
Only last May Selena told 60,000 fans about her bond with Taylor when she gave a surprise performance of Hands to Myself during Swift’s Reputation Stadium Tour in California.
“This person has never ever judged a single decision I’ve made. She’s always met me where I’ve been,” she said, according to a fan video.
“She’s encouraged me when I’ve had nothing to be encouraged about, and I don’t know if I would be as strong as I am if I didn’t have you and your family because you’ve changed my life,” Gomez added.
Disney movies are staples of so many childhoods, right?
Who doesn't remember sitting in front of movies like Peter Pan, The Jungle Book and Bambi as a kid, totally engrossed?
However, what you might not have realised at the time was that there were lessons we were absorbing, all thanks to these stories.
A new study has discovered that Disney films help kids to process and deal with grief.
While this might sound a bit morbid, it is actually beneficial for young children to learn about tough subjects like death.
While you might think of Disney movies as happy stories filled with wonder, but there are many dark themes in some of your most loved childhood classics.
Take Bambi – we all shed a tear when his mum was shot by the hunter or when Claude Frollo was dropped from the rooftops in The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and let's not forget when Simba desperately tries to wake Mufasa.
Being exposed to the topic of death is not all bad though – the study says that it has some benefits.
Study leader Professor Kelly Tenzek says, "These films can be used as conversation starters for difficult and what are oftentimes taboo topics like death and dying.''
She continues, "These are important conversations to have with children, but waiting until the end of life is way too late and can lead to a poor end-of-life experience."
