​Ariana Grande really didn’t endear herself to the Australian people it seems, as her diva antics caused huge hassle for the press over there on a promotional tour this weekend.

Approved media were invited to a press event in Sydney yesterday to interview and photograph the star. Before entering, journalists were given a list of topics that were off-limits for Ariana. Some things, like the recent death of Ariana’s grandfather, were understandably delicate issues, but others seemed plain bizarre. No questions about Justin Bieber… or Mariah Carey?!

Photographers were given equally strict rules to follow – under no circumstances could Ariana be shot from the right side of her face, and natural light was a big no-no. The singer also stopped to check how each photo looked on the photographer's camera. Here’s one of the photos that was taken:

If only we could give those kind of orders when the camera appeared on a night out!

As it happened, the Ariana Instruction Manual wasn’t even needed because the star stayed at the event for all of five minutes before deciding she was unhappy with how things were going.

She reportedly told her minders that she didn't like how her top looked in the pictures, before disappearing for the rest of the day.

However Ariana sounded totally smitten with Australia in this tweet earlier today:

Awkward!

Cara Delevingne’s next acting role is not for the faint hearted. She will be starring in The Face Of An Angel alongside Kate Beckinsale and Daniel Bruhl in the film which is based on the murder of Meredith Kercher back in 2007.

Meredith’s killer Amanda Knox, who has been re-convicted of the killing, is threatening to sue the BBC as the case is still ongoing and according to her lawyer, the film could be “damaging to her image” if it is draws direct comparisons to what actually happened. Knox’s lawyer Luciano Ghirga says that if this does happen, legal action may be taken:

“There have already been at least two films and 12 books about the case. If the film is based even loosely on the murder in Perugia and if it is damaging to Amanda's image, we will be asking for damages, as we have done in other cases.”

However, the film is going ahead, and Cara (who plays a fun loving student called Melanie) says that “It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I learnt so much just because I found out a lot about myself.

“I found out that I could act, that I could do it confidently and not be nervous and die because usually I think I’m going to die doing things that scare me! I went in so terrified and nervous but I got so much good advice from Michael and Daniel. We just made a family.”

We definitely can’t wait to see Cara in action – but could her acting success mean her modelling days could be coming to an end?! We hope not!

Sorry guys and girls, everyone’s favourite actor is officially taken.

Ok, so he was anyway – Neil Patrick Harris and his partner David Burtka tied the knot on Saturday after 10 years together.

The couple started dating after David made a guest appearance in How I Met Your Mother, and now have twins, a boy and girl, together called Gideon Scott and Harper Grace.

NPH broke the happy news on Twitter, writing:

“Guess what? @DavidBurtka and I got married over the weekend. In Italy. Yup, we put the 'n' and 'd' in 'husband'.”

With the couple's permission, actress and presenter Kelly Ripa, a guest at the wedding, spilled all the details about the ceremony.

 "It was a beautiful, beautiful family affair in Perugia, Italy" she said. "They rented a castle—or, I think they rented it! I hope we didn't break into a castle. It was a really beautiful. Sir Elton John performed. There were fireworks. The food was amazing."

"There were magic tricks, because you know, Neil is way into magic”

Kelly also shared an adorable story about the newlyweds twins and their part in the ceremony.

"Harper was going to be the flower girl and Gideon was going to be the ring bearer, and he said, 'I don't want to be the ring bearer!' And they said, 'OK, well, what do you want to be?' And he said, 'I want to be the orange boy.' And he passed out oranges to everybody as he came down the aisle! He came up with it on his own. He had his little tux and his top hat and he was passing out oranges."

"Later on during the night, we were dancing I said to him, 'Look, Gideon, I saved your orange because I'm going to keep it forever and he goes, 'Oh, you shouldn't! It's so delicious!'"

Sounds like a magical day, congratulations to the happy couple!

Creating the perfect manicure can often be more costly than you anticipate. CND are here to provide the top DIY tips for your perfect cost effective manicure.

Make polka dots with the tip of a bobby pin

  • Choose two nail colours of your choice. For A/W we recommend using CND’s new A/W Modern Folklore Collection in Crimson Sash and Locket Love.
  • First, paint your nails in the base colour Crimson Sash.
  • Wait for your nails to dry for two minutes.
  • Get a bobby pin and dip it into the Locket Love as this is what you will be using for your dots.
  • Apply the VINYLUX Weekly Top Coat to give your polish that week long effect.

Add corn starch to clear nail polish to create a matte top coat

  • Take a bottle of clear nail polish that is at least 25% empty.
  • Using a makeshift funnel made from rolled paper, add a teaspoon of cornstarch to the bottle of nail varnish.
  • Shake the bottle to mix the cornstarch with the clear polish. Take note that this will involve a lot of shaking.
  • Allow the polish to sit for 24 hours

Write on your nails with a sharpie pen

  • To begin, choose a base colour of your choice. Try out the CND VINYLUX Modern Folklore Collection in Rose Brocade. Taking a Sharpie pen in a colour of your choice draw any design you wish.

Create a glitter French manicure

  • Taking a nail glitter pen of your choice draw a stripe along your French manicure tip to dress it up and cover up those uneven lines.

Paint over lace to create an easy design

  • Once you have your French manicure complete place a sheet of lace over each nail.
  • Using a white nail polish of your choice, we suggest CND VINYLUX in Cream Puff, paint a thin layer on the outer side of the lace and voilá you have French manicured nails with a beautiful lace design.

Seen as we are all so fond of getting in front of the camera these days, it’s about time someone invented a foundation that can make us look perfect even under the harshest of lights!

Dior have come up with Diorskin Star Foundation, which uses titanium. Apparently this ingredient helps to stop the skin from becoming shiny, and also soothes red patches while ‘amplifying radiance’.

We couldn’t really ask for much more from a foundation! The company developed the make-up after discovering that seven out of ten women aren’t too happy with the end result of selfies. Hopefully the ‘intelligent pigments’ which capture the light in the new make-up will make this dissatisfaction a thing of the past!

We thought Kim Kardashian may have been the face of this new foundation, seen as she’s such a fan of selfies, but no, it is the lovely Natalie Portman instead.

Good choice, Dior! We’re sold!

Researchers in UCC looked at data submitted by 2,500 Irish respondents to a European Social Survey in 2010, and found that the happiest people are under 30, or over 65.

Great news, we’re sure you’ll agree – not! We are approaching our thirtieth with a whole new sense of dread now!

The study found that the happiest of people were over 65, lived in rural Ireland, had jobs, had regular contact with their children and were religious.

What was interesting however, was that the amount of money you had only had a modest impact on your level of happiness – but whether or not you had a job made a big difference.

There was no difference between men and women, but those who had a third level qualification were said to be happier.

Dr. Edel Walsh said: “Overall, it bears out literature showing that we are at our happiest when younger or older, while not so during those transitional ages in our 30s and 40s.”

CeeLo Green is feeling the backlash after he wrote a series of controversial and offensive tweets about rape last week.

Both the JBAB Freedom Live show and the Gretna Heritage Festival have both announced they are dropping CeeLo from their line up, citing the Tweets as the reason.

Freedom Live posted to their Facebook page about the decision.

"We seek a department-wide culture of gender dignity and respect where sexual assault is completely eliminated and never tolerated, where sexual assault victims receive compassionate and co-ordinated support, and where offenders are held appropriately accountable."

"Unfortunately, one of the performers we signed for the JBAB Freedom Live show on 20th September recently posted comments on social media that we consider to be completely inconsistent with Navy core values."

"Regardless of intent or context, the lack of sensitivity towards an issue that is one of the great challenges facing our Navy is unacceptable. As a result, we have made the decision to pull Cee Lo Green from the Freedom Live event."

The Gretna Heritage Festival gave similar reasons, stating that CeeLo "does not represent the festival's wholesome family environment."

His reality TV series The Good Life has also been cancelled following his Twitter outburst.
