Chris Brown could be in a spot of bother where his questionable reputation stands!

The rapper was recorded shoving a woman who leaned in for a kiss at Limelight in Houston recently.

TMZ reports that the rapper was with his girlfriend, Karrueche Tran at the time the incident occurred.

In the video, the woman can be seen leaning into Chris for a kiss before he angrily refutes her advances and continues on his way. 

While the woman was of course, uninjured, this probably wasn’t the best move for Chris as he tried to mend his reputation following an incident in 2009 where he beat up then girlfriend, Rihanna.

Singer Gwen Stefani admitted she had to “walk away” from her fashion label L.A.M.B while she juggled being a mother and singer – but she is back with a bang. Phew!

In an interview with People, the No Doubt singer revealed that she had to walk away after she became pregnant with her son Apollo, saying: "It was really hard for me to do much else, so I kind of had to walk away. It's really hard, but I've always liked to clash things. You get to be in one world, and the next minute you're in another world."

The 44-year-old made her comeback during New York Fashion Week as you do with a 90 piece collection of bohemian style looks which Gwen admits “reflects where I am right now” adding, “everything is kind of aligned.”

It doesn’t look like she is going to be stopping with just clothes though as she reveals she in working on new Harajuku Lovers fragrance.

"I'm doing new Harajuku Lovers fragrances that I've been working on for forever," she revealed. "They also reflect where I am right now, which is totally surreal because I worked on them so long ago and it all coincides in a weird unplanned way. I love when that happens."

Sound like she will have A LOT on her plate!

The whole world seems to be on a clean eating buzz at the moment, and while it makes your Instagram feel a lot more annoying to scroll through, things could be a lot worse.

Forget juice cleanses and raw food, over the last few decades any number of crazy fad diets have come and gone. Some of them seem kind of legit, and others are just plain bizarre.

Here are a few that would send us running for the nearest Burger King…

1. The Baby Food Diet
In theory this seems like it could be a good idea. After all, food intended for babies is probably super-healthy, right? Yes, if you subsist solely on jars of puréed baby food your diet will be low in sugar and fat… but it will also be devoid of taste and texture. Puréed beef? Sounds delightful!

2. The Cabbage Soup Diet
This famous diet apparently leads to weight loss of up to 10lbs per week… along with a serious amount of bloating and flatulence. Yay! Along with some severely restricted meals, you’re only permitted to eat low-sodium cabbage soup for the duration of the diet.

3. The Master Cleanse
Beyoncé reportedly endured this awful diet to lose weight for her role in Dreamgirls. Lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and water are mixed into a special drink, of which almost two litres must be consumed every day. This is combined with a special laxative tea to keep things moving. This one is just a bit too drastic for us…

4. The Grapefruit Diet
To complete this diet, a grapefruit is eaten before every meal. While many have reported weight loss, it’s thought to be due to the fact that dieters are only allowed to consume three meals per day, all of which are seriously low in fat and calories. So what you’re saying is that if I eat a grapefruit before every pizza, I’m not going to lose weight? Oh. Okay then.

5. The Sleeping Beauty Diet
Getting enough rest is key to maintaining a healthy weight, that much can’t be denied. But the premise of this diet, as favoured by Elvis (whose weight loss journey didn’t end well, if you recall), is to sleep excessively, so that you miss lots of meals at once. If you can’t naturally sleep for days on end, don’t worry, you can take sedatives! Charming.

This Come Dine With Me contestant had an amazing freak out when she realised she had come fourth.

The woman proceeds to tell everyone just how terrible their meals were and even calls one contestant’s food “sh**” before storming off to bed. Yes, she actually says she is going to bed.

Her guests are left sitting there dumbfounded and shocked at her childish behaviour.

What a sore loser!

You keep telling all of your friends that you and that guy are "just friends" but underneath it you know it's more and here are the signs:

1. You’re secretly jealous when they go out with someone else
You might act like you’re happy for them, but on the inside you’re jealous that theyre seeing someone else. You hope that things don’t work out…

love animated GIF

2. You go out together a lot more
You don’t see them as “dates” but if you were actually to look at it they kind of are. You might start off by going to the cinema or bowling, sooner or later you start to have dinner together, then breakfast…

3. You start to care how you look around them
Before you could wear sweatpants around them and you wouldn’t really care, but lately you seem to be putting more effort into your appearance around them. A spray of perfume here, bit of hair gel there… Stop kidding yourself.

4. Missing them more than you should
If you’re friends with someone, you tend not to be bothered so much about not seeing them. Things get messy when you start texting them if they haven’t arrived on a night out, wondering what’s keeping them, being bored until they get there.

5. Other people ask you if you’re together
People tend to notice when two people are together and when they’re not. So if your friends start to notice things and ask you about them, then clearly your relationship with each other has changed.

6. You get nervous when you’re around them
When you were just friends you never got nervous around and you were always comfortable around them. If you start to get a little nervous when you know you’re going to see them then there is clearly something there.

7. You get mad at them for no apparent reason
When you’re friends with someone there is less drama than if you’re in a relationship. If you seem to be bickering with them are get angry for no reason, then you clearly care about them and your frustrations are covering it up.

8. You feel overprotective of them
When you’re friends with someone you might advise them not to do something, but ultimately you know it’s up to them. If you secretly like them you will be protective of them and be concerned when they do something dangerous.

9. If they give you a compliment you start to blush
Friends usually tell each other when they look good and when they aren’t looking the best. You know that they have good intentions, if they mean something more to you then you might blush or act shy. If we really like someone we take compliments to heart and it makes you like them more.

10. They’re always on your mind
When you find yourself alone, your mind wanders and you start to think about them. You might think about your friends every now and then, but if you care for them, they always seem to be on your mind and you can’t get them out of your head.

Star of The Apprentice, Donald Trump, has had something of an interesting morning after he accidentally retweeted a photo of serial killer couple, Fred and Rose West.

@feckhead (didn’t that give it away?!) tweeted the business magnate writing: “My parents who passes away always said you were a big inspiration. Can you pls RT for their memory?”

Below the tweet was a photo of the Wests, a British couple who between them murdered over 13 girls, including one of their daughters.

Being nice, Donald retweeted the photo – unaware of who they really were and the cruel prank being played on him. 

Now, he has taken to Twitter to voice his anger about the prank: “Some jerk fraudulently tweeted that his parents said I was a big inspiration to them + pls RT – out of kindness I retweeted. Maybe I’ll sue.”

“I thought I was being nice to somebody re their parents. I guess this teaches you not to be nice or trusting. Sad!”

Aww, we actually feel really sorry for Donald – his reaction is making us want to cry!

Congratulations are in order for Rihanna, who's been tipped to star in the next James Bond film.

The upcoming movie, which has the working title Bond 24, is due to begin filming this December.

The Diamonds singer has reportedly been approached by producers to see if she would be interested in a cameo role. No specifics have been announced yet – but we think she's make a great Miss Moneypenny!

Apparently RiRi jumped at the chance to appear alongside 007. The star "is a big fan of the Bond films and has always loved the idea of appearing in one," a source told The Sunday Mirror.

"She didn't even need to think about it, she knows she wants to do it… She's really excited," said the insider.

Bond veteran Daniel Craig will return for his fourth run as the secret agent in the film, which will be released in 2015.

Rihanna's no stranger to the big screen herself, having appeared in the 2012 action-adventure flick Battleship.

We can't wait to see the singer doing her thing with Bond, Q and the gang!

While his owner may be too busy to play fetch with him, this clever little guy knows how to make strangers play with him instead!

As people walk by, the dog drops his ball over the fence so the person will throw it back, who would just walk past it after all?

But then he comes back and does it again…and again. 

We love this little guy – can we keep him?

Now this we did not see coming…

Taylor Swift has reportedly become the latest star targeted by the nude hacking scandal.

Although the Shake It Off singer had appeared on a list of celebrities the hackers supposedly have nude photos of, as of yet Taylor’s had not appeared anywhere, until now.

The topless photo, allegedly of the 24-year-old pop singer appeared on 4Chan on Sunday but was reportedly deleted soon after.

Taylor wasn’t the only surprising name to come up in this batch of photos as Anna Kendrick also appeared, though it has been said she was not actually nude in any of the photos posted.

We’re sure her brother will be relieved to hear that after she posted a message he sent her when the hacking scandal broke back in August!

It’s such a shame for any of these women to have such personal photos shared and we’re sure Taylor will be doing anything in her power to get justice.

The Fashion Week season is nearly over, with the last of the catwalk shows for spring/summer 2015 taking place in Paris later this week. 

While it's always exciting to find out what trends will be on the high street next season, this year's catwalks were a treasure trove of incredible make-up inspiration too. Some were ones we'll definitely be re-creating at home, while others were just totally bizarre!

Here are a few of the looks we absolutely loved…

1. Blushing beauty
Make-up artists at Pamella Roland used lots of pink cream blusher as part of the collection's "gardens of Kyoto" theme, conjuring up visions of cherry-blossom trees in full bloom. This is a real English rose look which we really love.

2. Intense cat-eye
This is a look we reckon we could rock on a night out! For the Bibhu Mohapatra NYFW show, eyes were dusted with a golden bronze powder, and a black gel liner was used to create prominent flicks. The look was finished with a touch of white liner on the inner eye line. This is a great alternative to a standard smokey eye, as the golden colour really brightens things up.

3. Glitter goddess
Electric Picnic 2015 here we come! Make-up artist Pat McGrath went for a "cosmic rock and roll" theme with the Anna Sui models. Loose gold glitter was dusted above and below the eye line for this flirty look, with just a hit of black liner on the top lid. Easy!

4. Simple elegance
This is what we aspire to look like when we go "all natural" with our make-up, though it never quite goes to plan! A Marie Antionette theme at Alice + Olivia inspired this youthful toned-down look, with highlighter used instead of bronzer for contouring. We adore the pale pink lip gloss, too.

5. Bold warrior
Female samurai warriors were the inspiration for this hard-as-nails look at Hervé Leger. Thick arched brows and thick geometic liner make for a very intense result but it's one we'd be willing to try! Lips were kept totally minimal with some nude cream gloss.

6. The anti-smokey eye
We thought we'd never see baby pink eyeshadow again after age 14, but we have serious envy for this look! Make-up artist Katie-Jane Hughes went for a feminine twist for models on the Yoana Baraschi catwalk, with a bold white flick to really open up the eye. And can we talk about that topknot? Want!

Some people on Tinder need to be avoided – there is no two ways about it. 

Here are five guys you will want to swipe left on Tinder…!

 1. The guy that lists ‘’ being a full-time legend’’ in his personal info

jlo gif

This is pretty self-explanatory. We are not back in third year in secondary school and Tinder is not your homework journal. Next.

 2. The guy that thinks he can flirt

ross flirting

So your phone vibrates and informs you that you have a new tinder match. Mildly interested you open the app to see who could be your future boyfriend. He has even sent you a message. Heart racing, you open it thinking about all the cute dates you two could go on but then this is what awaits you. "Hey there nice dress but I bet it would look better on my  floor". Block him, delete him, do whatever needs to be done. No one should be subjected to such a conversation.

 3. The guy that communicates with emojis

Just. No. 

4. The guy that is most definitely still in school

So he may be eighteen which technically means he can be on Tinder, but seriously? A match? Aaand, swipe.
