THEY'RE BAAACK HENNYS.

We've been counting down the days for Queer Eye to return to our streaming screens, we need far more Jonathan, Antoni, Bobby, Karamo and Tan in our lives.

The make-over with a meaning show has us gasping for air between laughs and sobs, it's just so touching. We love the Fab Five more than anything, they're PURE AF. Thank God, they've released a teaser:

The tweet was captioned in a typical up-beat Jonathan tone:

"WE'RE BAAACK HENNYS! Get ready to LOVE YOURSELF! Queer Eye season three launches March 15. HUGE thanks to Carly Rae Jepsen for this exclusive preview of her NEW BOP, Now That I Found You.

That's right, pop sensation Carly Rae Jepsen is featured in the new trailer with a never-before-played track, and we're dead. Deceased. Cadaverous. RIP. Pick us up off the floor.

The eagerly-awaited third season will have eight episodes, and will be based in Kansas City, Missouri. It's a big change from Georgia, but they'll spark joy wherever they go. And self-love.

The pop singer wrote on her Instagram: “Obsessed with you guys Queer Eye; Congrats on the new season and thanks for including #NowThatIFoundYou." 

The Netflix show which follows the Fab Five as they sprinkle love, confidence and happiness on those who desperately need it picked up four Emmy nominations for it's first season.

Season two will be eligible next year for the Emmys again, and we're confident it'll pick up a few gongs. We were WEEPING throughout.

Fans on social media have predictably lost their minds over the news, and the show returns on March 15 so get yourselves ready.

We're talking glitter, tissues for the tears and avocados for the angel that is Antoni. Always.

Jessica Biel is sending some serious lurrrrrve vibes Justin Timberlake's way. The married pair are absolutely adorable, and share three-year-old son Silas together.

Biel, who recently produced and starred in the incredible Netflix show The Sinner, has now uploaded the CUTEST message to her husband, and we can't stop weeping.

The 36-year-old actress posted a photo of the happy couple smiling underwater, and captioned the note;

"Since the days of embarrassing pink ruffled bikinis and underwater photo shoots, you have been infusing my life with so much joy and laughter that I blame YOU for my smile lines. But I wouldn’t trade them for the world."

She continued; "I wear them with pride knowing that I am the luckiest human around to have the honour of hearing your jokes, your words, your voice, every day of my life." 

"Happy birthday to the man of my blue ocean dreams. I love you." OH. MY. SWEET. LORD. The man of my blue ocean dreams? That's some poetry right there.

Timberlake is celebrating his 38th birthday with his wife, and headed to the theatre to watch a performance of To Kill A Mockingbird on Broadway,

The singer is currently wrapping up his Man of the Woods national tour, which has a show slated on the day of his actual birthday.

Their big night out seemed to take a lot out of Biel, who fell asleep in the car, much to Justin's amusement. He posted a hilarious video singing happy birthday to himself, while his wife is fully in dreamland beside him.

He added the cheeky caption; “Gotta work tomorrow for my bday so wifey really going all out tonight…” She playfully replied; “I’m just preparing for our big night out. Just preparing.”

Thursday night's Madison Square Garden performance was originally meant to happen in October, but Timberlake had ongoing bruised vocal cords and was forced to postpone it.

The former *NSYNC member previously had an operation to remove his throat nodules back in 2005.

The Hollywood pair tied the knot in 2012 in a magical ceremony in Puglia, Italy. The pair always say that laughter is the core of their relationship, with a joke first bringing them together.

Timberlake revealed in his first book, Hindsight: & All the Things I Can’t See in Front of Meback in November that the duo met at a Hollywood party and clicked immediately.

The SexyBack singer wrote;

“When I met Jess, it was undeniable how beautiful she is. I made some sort of sarcastic comment, really dry. Nobody got it except her."

"She laughed, and I noticed, all of a sudden, and in the way where you wonder if a person’s like you, if they have a very dry, dark sense of humour, too," he said.

Justin couldn't stop thinking about Jessica after their first meeting; “I’m kind of really interested in that girl. There was just something about that girl. Kind of interested in that girl. Goddamn it.”

The actress later came to a show during his FutureSex/LoveSounds tour. He finally asked for her number after offering her a lift in his tour bus.; “Then the Golden Globes came up, and that’s when we planned on seeing each other."

“We’ve had a lot of unforgettable times,” Timberlake added. “She’s become a huge influence on my life, and I have such an admiration for her, especially seeing her as a mother now.”

The romance didn't stop there, with him gushing about her influence; “But I had admiration for her before. She’s a very good writer. She’s a poet. She’s a tremendous actor. She’s funny. Very funny. And she’s one of the most patient people I’ve ever met… She changed me. She changed my life.” 

AWWWWWW.

Death is pretty much a given when it comes to Game of Thrones; whether it's the Red Wedding (RIP my heart), the Battle of the Bastards or just any kind of royal gathering, you're guaranteed to see bloodshed.

That being said, the upcoming and much-anticipated final season of the show will be pivotal when it comes to character killing, because the last one standing LITERALLY wins Game of Thrones.

*deep breathes* We're going to need a stiff drink to handle the tension and grieving which series eight will inevitably bring…

A new study published in the Injury Epidemiology journal tries to decipher the likelihood of characters meeting their bloody end, and has recorded data on 330 Game of Thrones personalities.

The data takes circumstances such as religious beliefs and social status into account based off each episode of the HBO smash hit show.

'What influences the chances of a character death?' we hear you ask. Author of the study, Reidar Lysad (he sounds like a character himself…) has said;

"The risk of death is high among characters in Game of Thrones.

By the end of the seventh season, more than half of the characters had died – 186 out of the 330 characters we included in this study – with violent deaths being the most common by far.!

Apparently, switching allegiance makes you a lot more likely to survive in the show, but sticking to your morals and principles increases the chance that you'll reach the end.

Probably because it's always the sneaky snakes who can con their way into staying alive… 

Women and 'highborns' are also more likely to continue with their lives, rather than poor, male characters.

Which means… Queen of Westeros and General Nutjob Cersei Lannister might end up being the last gal standing. *gasps* but her prophecy??

Jaime Lannister, Jon Snow and Tyrion Lannister all have higher chances of survival because of their tendency to switch sides, and their high status.

One in seven characters actually died within the first hour of their introduction, and the fastest end to a character was just 11 SECONDS. Good God, no one is safe.

The regular character is alive for roughly 29 hours, and only two deaths were from natural causes.

In Westeros, anything goes. They could all die, TBF, and the throne will be left icy and barren.

The outcome of the show is always unpredictable, and aims to be different than the expected.

As the saying goes; “When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die”.

Let the countdown begin, megafans.

Game of Thrones will OFFICIALLY air its eight and final season in April 2019. The HBO phenomenon aired its seventh season in August 2017, so there will have been an almost two-year gap.

For the feverous fanbase, that's 20 months too long…

Season eight will also run for six episodes, which is one episode fewer season seven, but never fear because each episode will run for as long as ninety minutes.

Imagine the tension… we can barely handle 60 minutes of such high-paced tension and pure visual spectacle. 90 minutes could have us fainting multiple times from sheer SHOOKETH-ness.

By premiering the April date, this allows Game of Thrones to remain eligible for the 2019 Emmys. The last season swept up nine awards, including Outstanding Drama Series, a major deal in the realm of television.

The HBO announcement came in the form of a new video broadcasting the launch of a final season campaign entitled  #ForTheThrone.

The video is as powerful as you might imagine considering the show is famed for its gruesome battles, dramatic deaths and revenge in every form.

(*SPOILERS INCOMING*)

Some of the most violent highlights from across the seven seasons are included in the clip, including the infamous Red Wedding (we STILL AREN'T OVER THIS) and the King's Landing wildfire attack.

The end of the seventh season left Westeros on the brink of its deadliest war yet, in case you have miraculously forgotten. The finale was one of the most watched TV episodes in history, and we can still hear the gasps.

Fan favourites such as Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) and other prominent characters within the fantasy canon must learn to throw aside their differences in order to fight a common enemy: the Army of the Dead, led by the vicious Night King. 

The Army of the Dead have already begun marching after destroying the wall and taking control of a dragon, turning it to ice. WE WERE WAILING.

So you know, casual saving the world from massive bloodshed and death kinda vibe. The usual.

Save the date, people. It's gonna be emotional.

So, it's fair to say that Sean Spicer caused quite a stir at last night's Primetime Emmy Awards, but it was backstage photo with a certain late night talk show host that has Twitter users in uproar.

Appearing on stage during Stephen Colbert's opening monologue, the former White House Press Secretary divided viewers when he poked fun at his own claim that Donald Trump’s inauguration received the biggest crowds ever.

However, Sean wasn't the only one to receive criticism on the night.

After posing for a snap in which James Corden appears to kiss the former White House secretary on the cheek, social media users were less than impressed with the Late Late Show host. 

Some compared the interaction to the controversial moment fellow talk show star Jimmy Kimmel ruffled Donald Trump's hair during an interview last September.

“Corden makes Spicer look like a beacon of honour and sincerity. It’s like Kimmel ruffling Trump’s hair all over again: proper enablers”, one viewer wrote. 

Others took to Twitter to express their disappointment, with some even accusing the star of "normalising fascism."

On Sunday night, some of Hollywood's biggest and brightest stars descended on the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles for the 69th Primetime Emmy awards.

While the award ceremony has previously been criticised for being boring and unmemorable, viewers general agreed that this year's offering was quite the opposite.

Host Stephen Colbert brought the laughs, Alec Baldwin brought the gags about Trump and there was even a surprise appearance from former press secretary Sean Spicer (though it's safe to say the audience didn't know how to feel about that one).

In general, acceptance speeches were well planned and expertly delivered, though one in particular stole the show.

First time winner, Nicole Kidman scooped the award for best lead actress for her performances as domestic abuse survivor, Celeste Wright, in the critically acclaimed series Big Little Lies – and things got pretty emotional.

The actress began by thanking her co-star, Reese Witherspoon, who was also nominated in the same category.

“Reese, I share this with you. Without you I would not be standing up here.”

She went on to thank her huband, Keith Urban and their daughters, Faith and Sunday, before dedicating her Emmy to raising awareness of domestic abuse.

“It is a complicated, insidious disease. It exists far more than we allow ourselves to know. It is filled with shame and secrecy, and by you acknowledging me with this award, it shines a light on it even more.”

In total, Big Little Lies scooped five gongs including the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor which went to Nicole's on-screen abuser, Alexander Skarsgård.

On a night when all eyes are on who wins what and what everyone is wearing, it’s nice to see some guests at last night’s EMMYS were celebrating something different entirely; family.

Here’s seven celebs who decided to share the night with their nearest and dearest.

1. Sofia Vergara

The Modern Family actress decided to share the night with her 24-year-old son, Manolo.

While Tom Hiddleston and John Mayer kept Twitter entertained through last night’s Emmys, Kristen Bell set to work with winning over Instagram.

Before the event even began, the Bad Moms star used the ‘gram to keep fans up-to-date with her red carpet beauty prep – a process which included a suspect-looking lip conditioning sticker and whole lot of joking around.

Clearly in the depths of a makeover, the actress shared a snap of herself wearing a face mask with the caption: “I have serious doubts this is actually a lip conditioning sticker my makeup artist @simonesiegl applied over my mouth…I’m pretty sure she just wanted me to zip it.”

She then posted a pic of her puffed up hair and wrote: “Caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and said, confidently ‘This looks GREAT guys!  Let’s go!’  Then I was informed we’re only half way done.”

It looks like the 36-year-old’s glam time really did pay off as she appeared on the red carpet in one of the most stunning dresses of the night – a full skirted floral gown with a perfectly plunging neckline which has already been classed as bridal inspiration by online commentators.

Model Emily Ratajkowski, American Pie star Natasha Lyonne and Golden Globe nominee Sarah Paulson also wowed on the night with their very different outfits of choice.

As if Kristen hadn’t already made her way into our go-to Insta list, the Forgetting Sarah Marshall star finished off her night just as we would – by tucking into a big slice of pizza.

Looking slightly less glam than in her earlier pics, the actress shared a photo of herself with sauce on her chin alongside the caption: “The shading on my chin tonight was courtesy of @pizzasauce.”

She mightn’t have made the Emmys last night, but that doesn’t mean Taylor Swift didn’t manage to make things awkward for her recent ex Tom Hiddleston.

Last night at the star studded event Tom impressed everyone by returning to his pre-Hiddleswift state of hotness, but unfortunately for the actor even his very dapper suit couldn’t stop the Internet from finding a link between him and his famous ex.

After presenting the award for Best Directing in a Limited Series to Susanne Bier for her work on The Night Manager, Tom was played off stage by another of Taylor’s former flames, John Mayer.

While the Bad Blood singer and American singer-songwriter only dated briefly in 2009, Twitter users could not ignore the show’s producers’ clever decision to move the camera from Tom to John as Mr Mayer strummed his guitar for the actor’s descent off stage.

One viewer wrote: “Emmy for directing a limited series goes to whoever directed the camera directly from Tom Hiddleston to John Mayer.”

While others suggested that the song John had been playing was called The Thrill Is Gone.

Whoever organised this one is a genius!

It was highly anticipated that Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston might be making their red carpet debut at the upcoming Emmys, but apparently, she's worried about him not being with her "for the right reasons."

A source told the Mail Online: "Tom wants their relationship to be public, even asking Taylor to go to the Emmys with him, but Taylor wants to keep her private life private.

"Tom's need for their relationship to be so public so quickly makes her uncomfortable. She tried to be OK with it in the beginning but fears he is in love with the idea of her and not falling in love with her for the right reasons.

"Taylor is an independent young woman and doesn't feel like she needs a boyfriend to make her complete."

Of course, this is just coming from a source and neither party has confirmed or denied the reports – but to be honest, we'd love if they made their red carpet debut already.

Congrats are in order for Baz Ashmawy and his mammy Nancy this morning, as they've just bagged a major award in the US.

The pair were in  New York last night for the International Emmy Awards, where they walked away with a gong for Baz's show, 50 Ways To Kill Your Mammy.

And there was no winner more chilled than Nancy, who looked VERY at home holding that golden statuette.

The Sky One show, which has a second season kicking off soon, sees Baz and Nancy trying out a variety of extreme sports, from skydiving to swimming with crocodiles.

Baz confirmed the news via Twitter earlier this morning from New York, saying he was "touched" and that his Mam was "so happy."

Despite the big win, Baz admitted recently that it took a while for US viewers to grasp his particular brand of Irish humour.

"In the States there was a lot of backlash in the beginning because they don't have the same understanding of sarcasm or irony that we have, they thought I was actually trying to kill my mother,” he told RTÉ.

"When I was making Mammy I wanted to make something that was funny and was fresh and something that made people feel a bit sentimental about their family.

"I wasn't making it for awards or to sell or any of that stuff, but it's an amazing nod".

As for Nancy, Baz admitted his mum was chuffed to have a glitzy night in New York after being put through her paces on the show.

"She's got to do all of these amazing things and now she's going to get her glad rags on and have a very glitzy night in The Hilton. It's brilliant and amazing," he said.

We're delighted for the pair!
