Vin Diesel has a new movie coming out, XXX: The Return of Xander Cage, and like many other actors, started a bit of a press tour to get people buzzed about the flick.

However, at Brazil's Comic-Con Experience 2016, where Vin did his first interview, things just went from bad to awful.

The Fast & Furious star was being interviewed by Youtuber Carol Moreira, and it got very uncomfortable, very quickly.

It all starts off normal, but then in the middle of a question, where Carol asks about working with Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan, Vin decided to say this:

"God, you're so beautiful. My god, she's so beautiful, man. Am I right or wrong? Look at her. How am I supposed to do this interview? Look at this woman. She's so beautiful. Talk to me, baby!"

Yep, weird. But, it got worse.

When Carol went on to ask, "what is your story?" Mr Diesel retorted: "What's your story?

"Let's get outta here. Let's go, let's go have lunch. My god, I love her. Look how beautiful she is. God, wow, man."

Let's get outta here… seriously?!

And it went on, when Carol asked the star about his love for nerdy stuff like her, he said: "I'm anything like you because I love you."

Then, Vin pulled his entourage off camera to tell them: "Look how beautiful she is. You guys think this is a joke. How am I supposed to sit over here looking at such beauty? C'mon guys. She's so beautiful. I'm in love. I'm in love with the interviewer."

And how is Carol acting throughout this? She just smiles and tries to move onto the next question.

But, Vin doesn't give up so easily. Just as the interview is coming to an end, he stops ANOTHER time to say: "I love her. Man, she's so f*cking sexy.

"I can't do this interview. Look at her. Does anyone see this? Guys, what's wrong? Am I the only one saying this? Look at her. She's so f*cking beautiful. It's like you can't even do an interview with her."

And if ALL that wasn't bad enough, he then gets down on his knees and crawls over to Carol.

"Oh my god, someone save me. When did this turn into [a] beautiful world? When did this turn into the most beautiful girl in Brazil? When did this turn into I love you?"

Yep. WTF.

The Youtuber uploaded the video on her channel yesterday, which she introduces in her native language, Portuguese, saying:

"I was not sure what to do. I just laughed because it was a very delicate situation. I did not like it. At the time I did not know how to react, but you will see that I was uncomfortable, it was not legal and that he interrupted my work…"

There's nothing wrong with paying a compliment, but seriously? No grown man should act like that.

Lamar Odom has given his first interview since his near-fatal overdose last year.

On an upcoming special of US TV show The Doctors, the former basketball player speaks about his battle with drugs and what made him hit that "low-point."

In a clip for the episode, Lamar is asked what was his last memory before waking up in hospital, to which he replies, "Being in that damn brothel and thinking I was going to just rest a little bit.

"I wasn't in a good place mentally, especially mentally, before that incident happened."

Lamar then wells up with tears before saying, "Me and my wife at the time were going through some things. I was in a dark place."

In the short video, he also says that while he's still recovering from the overdose, he has to look at the positives from what occurred.

"So I guess they say everything happens for a reason so I guess I'm here so I can tell a story."

And it was Khloe who had to tell him everything when he woke up in hospital. "I didn't know until Khloe had told me that I was in a coma. I couldn't even speak at the time. I couldn't talk.

"Nothing would come out when I would open my mouth, so I was scared," he added.

For the first time in almost 30 years, The Late Late Show will be leaving Ireland to meet a special guest.

Ryan Tubridy has revealed that this week’s show will feature an exclusive Irish interview with legendary singer-songwriter Bruce Springteen.

Speaking of the decision to film in London, the 43-year-old presenter said: “For one night only, The Late Late Show is making a small detour to London for a very special guest.”

“This is very unusual, and not something we do very often, but when The Boss comes calling, you just can't say no.”

“The Irish people have a particular love of Bruce Springsteen, and him for us, and people will see that in the interview,” continued Ryan.

“We hope that people will roll with it because we felt he was someone worth chasing.”

When you sing on a track called Shout Out To My Ex, you’d think you’d be prepared to answer questions about, well, your ex.

But apparently for Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne Pinnock, this is not the case.

During a recent interview with Capital FM DJ Roman Kemp, the 25-year-old pop star grew agitated and stormed out of the studio after being asked if the band needed to clear the song with their former flames.

“If you write a song like this, do you have to speak to all exs?,” asked Roman.

While all the girls had a notably awkward response, Leigh-Anne whispered something to Perrie Edwards before turning to the DJ to tell him his question was “inappropriate”.

Roman was quick to apologise and attempted to move forward with the conversation but the singer interrupted him and began ranting about being quizzed about her love life.

She said: “It just gets on my nerves when people ask things like that.  We’re not here to talk about exs.”

“I know the song is called that, but talk about how it’s a positive thing.  Do you know what I mean?”

Leigh-Anne then told her bandmates to continue the interview without her, before walking out of the studio while spurting curse words.

Perrie was quick to cover for her friend by explaining that Leigh-Anne had been “having a bad day”.

Thankfully for the mortified DJ the whole thing was a prank as shortly after Leigh-Anne's exit, a full choir invaded the studio to sing Uptown Funk with the girls.

Classic!

She’s one of the most recognisable women in the music industry, but Nicole Scherzinger is well aware that her fame has come at a cost.

In a candid interview with The Mirror Online, the X Factor judge confessed to putting work ahead of family and even admitted to missing “out on life” because of her demanding career.

The 38-year-old star said: “Look at me?  I’m not married and I ain’t got no kids yet.  I’m still like ‘let’s go.’”

“Of course work has come at a sacrifice.  I’ve missed out on life.”

The singer – whose seven year relationship with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton finished last year – also acknowledged that her love life has been affected by her career orientated ambitions.

Speaking of her current romance with Maria Sharapova’s ex Grigor Dimitrov, Nicole said: “It’s a sacrifice when you put your heart into a job.  Relationships suffer.”

But the former Pussycat Doll remains adamant that once she has met her goals, she will consider starting a family.

“I never expected marriage and kids by now,” she said.  “I have so much more to give as an artist.  Last year I got to do Cats in the West End and that was so fulfilling.  I see a vision of what I want as an artist.”

“Now I’m going to the top of that mountain.  When I get there, then I’ll have time for a family, and kids.”

 

Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.

It was the documentary that hooked us all last Christmas, and now it won't be long until Steven Avery will be able to tell all in his first ever broadcast interview.

Steven is set to speak to Dr Phil on his daytime talk show next month, but of course it will be a phone interview as the Wisconsin native remains in prison.

The host of the show will also welcome Steven's newly-announced fiancée Lynn Hartman, where she will discuss their relationship and what it's like being with someone behind bars.

Steven was convicted in 2007 for the murder of Teresa Halbach and is serving a life sentence in Waupun Correctional Institute in Wisconsin.

Shortly after Making A Murderer came out, Steven filed an appeal against his case.

We're looking forward to the second season of the series to come out.

He might be one of the hottest men to grace our screens in recent years, but that doesn't mean Northern Irish actor Jamie Dornan has let fame go to his head.

In a new interview with Ryan Tubridy which will air as part of tomorrow night's Late Late line-up, the County Down native admitted that fame is one aspect of his work which doesn't appeal to him.

Sitting next to his Anthropoid co-star Cillian Murphy, Jamie explained: “The fame aspect that comes with being a working actor does not intrigue me in the slightest.” 

“I think something like being Irish helps, and my friends.  There’s just no allowance for it.”

The Marie Antoinette star revealed how the value he places on his family and friends allows him to stay grounded.  

He said: “In your life, no matter what happens or how much notoriety you gain through your work, the fundamentals of your life don’t change…Your wife, your kids, your family and your friends, all that stuff, the stuff that makes you, doesn’t change.”

“On nights like this when you go to a premiere and it all seems crazy, it’s all very heightened but every day is totally normal.  It’s just a job, you go to work and do your job and then that’s it,” he continued.

Surprisingly the 34-year-old father of two also admitted that despite his lead role in the Fifty Shades of Grey movie, few of his friends have actually seen the flick.

He said: “I’m just thinking about some of my mates here and I would never want to go to see them in that movie!  It would be no different.”

“Why would they want to see me like that?” he asked.  “None of them have seen it.  I think a couple came to the premiere in London actually but with wives and girlfriends.”

As well as Jamie and Cillian, tomorrow night’s Late Late Show will also feature comedian Al Porter and Olympians Michael Conlan, Annalise Murphy and Gary and Paul O’Donovan.

For most people taking part in James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke would be actual life goals.  But for Britney Spears it seems the experience wasn’t quite the dream we’d expect it to be.

While recounting her time in the car with James for an American radio station on Friday, the Toxic singer said that cruising around Los Angeles with the British entertainer – whose name she appeared to have forgotten – was “so awkward”.

The 34-year-old told KTU 103.5FM: “It was a little awkward, like, driving by grocery stores…People walk by and there are like 18 cameras around us.  This is just so awkward.”

 

 

So many more things on the way… #Glory is coming soon. Pre-order now!

According to Entertainment Tonight, Britney also described how The Late Late Show host “controlled the whole thing” before jokingly discussing how sick she was of hearing Baby One More Time and Oops!…I Did It Again on repeat.

But overall the mother of two did enjoy her time with James.  She said:  “It was really fun…The guy was just so incredibly sweet.”

“I had no idea he has kids, he's a teddy bear.  I was like, ‘I just want to hug you right now’.”

Britney received a fair bit of criticism online after the segment aired on Thursday as Twitter users suggested she had mimed the lyrics to her own songs.

One person tweeted the star saying: “Britney you knew this was a carpool karaoke right?  And not carpool snapchat lipsync?”

While another said: “Goes to Carpool Karaoke.  Concept is to sing along your own songs.  LIPSYNCS ANYWAY.  The one & only Britney Spears.”

Whether it felt awkward at the time or not, it sure looked like the celebrity pair were having fun reliving Britney’s glory days dressed in those famous grey and white school uniforms.

You’d imagine it must take bags of confidence and a solid sense of self to be able to walk the most coveted runways in the world, but as more and more celebrities open up about their personal struggles with mental health, it's becoming increasingly obvious that even global superstars sometimes struggle to maintain their self-esteem.  And – as a new interview with Esquire magazine has revealed – Cara Delevingne is one such star.

In October last year the popular model-turned-actress revealed at the Women in the World summit that she has battled bouts of depression since she was a teenager, and now she has expanded on her mental health struggles – which include depression, suicidal thinking and self-harm – for Esquire.

Having witnessed her mother's manic depression and various drug addictions as a child, by the time Cara was a teenager the impact of her family’s issues began to be revealed as she became increasingly depressed and suicidal.

 

 

Cara told the mag: “I think I properly started dealing with depression when I was about 16…when all the stuff with my family started to make sense and came to the surface.”

“As a kid I felt like I had to be good and I had to be strong because my mum wasn’t.  So, when it got to being a teenager and all the hormones and the pressure and wanting to do well at school — for my parents, not for me — I had a mental breakdown.”

“I was suicidal…I couldn’t deal with it any more.  I realised how lucky and privileged I was, but all I wanted to do was die,” she remembers.

At 16 Cara was taken out of school for six months and prescribed medication which she said left her feeling “numb”.

Because of this experience the star now says she hates medication – although she does acknowledge that the meds she was given during her teenage years may have saved her life.

She recounts coming off the tablets at 18 and what it was like to be able to fully feel her emotions again: “I lost my virginity, I got into fights, I cried, I laughed.  It was the best thing in the world to feel things again.  And I get depressed still but I would rather learn to figure it out myself rather be dependant on meds, ever.”

While still working to maintain her mental health, the 23-year-old now seems to be happier than ever before as last week she revealed to British Vogue that she is “completely in love” with her singer-songwriter girlfriend St Vincent. 

We hope Cara continues to share her story and that she can remain positive into the future.

Jamie Dornan and Cillian Murphy are starring in the new movie Anthropoid together, and if that wasn’t good enough, their fans are going to love this interivew with the Huff Post because it’s just so, utterly, cringey.

Around the 16 minute mark, Jamie is being asked about the next instalment of Fifty Shades, but things take a very awkward turn when the interviewer tells him his 93-year-old granny just read the first book.

“Jesus Christ” is clearly heard coming from one of the lads (I think Cillian).

The camera then shoots over to Cillian and Anthropoid’s director Sean Ellis, whose reactions are just priceless and they both start laughing.

Jamie just looks extremely awkward before he says “fair play” to the reporters granny for reading the book.

Not an interview to be remembered.

While no one ever knows what Kanye West’s next move will be, we have to admit his recent confession about wishing to collaborate with IKEA did come as a bit of a surprise. 

Speaking to BBC Radio 1 earlier this week, the Yeezy creator expressed his desire to design furniture for the Scandinavian retailer when he told Annie Mac: “I have to work with IKEA – make furniture for interior design, for architecture.”

The controversial rapper explained how he thinks students in particular would love for him to design “a minimalist apartment inside of a college dorm” – even though student housing already tends to be pretty minimalist.

“Yo Ikea, allow Kanye to create, allow him to make this thing because you know what, I want a bed that he makes, I want a chair that he makes,” he said.

But unfortunately for Kanye, IKEA doesn't seem to be interested in joining forces with him right now.

A spokesperson for the brand told CNBC: “At IKEA we are constantly curious about different people, companies, artists and events around the world. To have these connections and inspiring meetings is an important way for us to find new ways to create a better everyday life for the many people.”

“Although we are really flattered by Kanye West's high interest in IKEA and the speculation around a joint venture, we have no plans to collaborate at this point in time.”

So it looks like flatpacking Ye's genius will just have to wait.

Last week Cara Delevingne sent fans into overdrive when she shared a picture of herself wearing a sizable diamond on her ring finger. 

And while she has yet to confirm if she’s actually engaged or not, the Suicide Squad star has been opening up about the love she has for her girlfriend of 16 months St Vincent.

In a new interview with British Vogue, the model said: “I'm completely in love… Before, I didn't know what love was – real love.”

 

“I didn't understand the depth of it. I always used to think it was you against the world. Now I know the meaning of life is love. Whether that's for yourself or for the world or your partner.”

Speaking on her sexual orientation, Cara said: “As a child, I used gay as a bad world, as in, 'that's so gay.' All my friends did.”

“I'm obviously in love, so if people want to say I'm gay, that's great. But we're all liquid – we change, we grow.”
