Harry at 30 – UTV, Tuesday at 8pm
The most eligible bachelor in the world (now Ryan Gosling is taken) turns the big three-oh this month, so UTV have made a documentary with contributions from his friends and army comrades to mark the big occasion. Wonder will they bring up the nekked partying in Vegas or the time he dressed up as a Nazi…?

Educating Joey Essex: Space Cadet – ITV2, Tuesday at 9pm
In tonight’s episode the former TOWIE star/complete eejit is sent to Space Camp to become an astronaut. And he also goes hunting for aliens, as you do. Must be great craic making this show.

Utterly Outrageous Celebrity Bodies – ITV2, Tuesday at 10pm
This countdown apparently celebrates “the extraordinary things stars have done to their bodies” – ?! So if you want to check out Courtney Stodden’s surgical enhancements or watch Kerry Katona as she undergoes liposuction then this is right up your street. Hmmm.

BIG – E4, Wednesday at 8pm
A kid goes to Funderland and wakes up the next day to find he has now become a 35-year-old Tom Hanks. Bizarre premise for a movie yet this is an absolute classic from the ‘80s as Tom gets to play with a gigantic toy piano and he also creates every youngsters’ dream apartment with arcade games, soda machines and a giant trampoline to boot!

The Good Wife – RTÉ One, Thursday at 11.05pm
Julianna Margulies just won her second Emmy for her role as Alicia Florrick in this absolutely addictive legal drama from the States. However fans be warned. If you’re following the series on RTÉ do NOT miss tonight as it is the most dramatic and shocking episode they’ve ever done. Be sure to have a box of Kleenex at the ready….

With everyone being super excited (and relieved) about Beyoncé’s cute display of PDA with Jay-Z at the Made in America Festival – no one noticed her brand new hair!

Yes, the undisputed queen of pop has gotten rid of her long locks and instead opted for a short, blunt bob – which we love!

It's slightly similar to a look she rocked last year, but without the ombre effect – and we much prefer this!

The husband and wife are getting ready to head over to Paris for the European leg of their On The Run tour, having finished up in the US last month. Not long after, Bey gave an explosive performance at the VMA awards, and was joined on stage by her husband and daughter, Blue Ivy – so cute!

Bey also showed off her cute new look in a series of Instagram photos, with one featuring her sister, Solange with the two looking very much happy and on good terms.

This weeks’ beauty blogger is the lovely Rachael from Serene Siren, who is from Bangor in Northern Ireland where she lives with her husband, her step son and as she says herself: “our mini zoo of four cats, a tarantula, fish and underwater frogs!” So it’s safe to say she’s kept busy! Not too busy to tell us all about her favourite beauty products though – phew!

What is your best budget beauty buy?
This is an easy one for me. It has to be Collection Cosmetics Lasting Perfection Concealer. It is such a popular product and is so affordable; it only costs £4.19! It's a creamy consistency, blends beautifully and is medium to full coverage. Plus, it's often included in 3 for 2 deals, so there's no reason to say no!

What is your top make-up tip?
If, like me, you like the focus of any makeup look to be on your eyes but you struggle with blinking or getting your lines crisp and straight, I have the answer to your problems! When applying shadow and liner to your lid, always place your mirror lower than eye level. This means you're looking down, and you can see where you're placing your product (and how close to the lash line you are!) You also blink less! To get crisp lines for dramatic flicks, use some tape or sticky notes and gently place on your skin and use the edge as a guideline. It means your lines are straight and you have the sticky pad there to catch any fallout!

Most girls have much-loved lipstick – what's yours?
I actually had to pull out all my lip products to decide this – you'll probably be surprised to know I only own 6 lip products… *hides* I know it's a pitiful amount but don't worry, I'm working on adding to that! But, my favourite is definitely MAC Sunny Seoul – slightly more expensive as it's higher end but it's so worth it! It's a beautiful creamy pink/coral with yellow undertones.

What was your very first perfume and what are you currently wearing?
Perfume is something I have a love/hate relationship with. I go through phases of wearing it all the time and then not wearing it at all. I think my first perfume was a TommyGirl one but I honestly can't remember! My current favourite is Beyoncé's Heat.

You're only allowed use three make-up products for the rest of your life – what are they?
Eyeliner! I'm currently loving Eyeko's skinny liquid eyeliner as it dries instantly and stays put all day. Perfect for a winged look. Next would have to be powder. As someone with oily skin, I like to have a matte finish so I definitely need a good setting powder. I personally like Rimmel Stay Matte Powder. And last but certainly not least, is mascara. I think it's one thing everyone feels naked without! I'm using Cosmetic A La Carte Divine Lash mascara and it's to die for; perfect volume and thickness!

Be sure to check out Rachael’s blog over at Serene Siren, or you can catch her on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram too!

As always with Kim Kardashian, rumours have been circulating recently about a recent controversy.

Apparently, the reality TV star had refused to sit near her brother’s ex, Rita Ora, and demanded to be moved.

This, however, has been slammed by her official representative as “false”: “She sat in the seat she was assigned. The tickets were issued days prior. The item is false.”

Hmm, we’re not convinced. The week before the VMAs aired, TMZ shared a photo in which it was clear to see our Kimmie was sitting two seats away from Rita, however, at the event, they were not near each other.

The two had been closer, when Rita was with Rob, the two often hung out, but it looks like things are not so simple anymore. 

Things got messy between Rob and Rita after he accused her of cheating on him "with 20 guys." Harsh!

Kim’s rep also blasted those rumours of a feud with Beyoncé, telling The Mirror: “There is no feud. It’s a tabloid fabrication.”

Are you as envious of Cara Delevingne’s big brows as we are? Well, hopefully we won’t be haunted by the green eyed monster for much longer if these NYX products are as good as they sound!

Their Eyebrow Cake Powder is only €7.49 and fills and defines eyebrows without any hassle. It also includes a slanted brush to define brows, a round wand to shape and style and a pot of wax to keep strays away.

Their Auto Eyebrow Pencil, €5.99 sounds just as good as it has an easy application tip which is meant to smooth application and blending to make sure your brows look totally natural.

We are sold!

If you are planning on using either of these products (which you can get in pharmacies nationwide), here are some top tips!

  • First of all, make sure you don’t over pluck. If it’s too late, try to let them grow out. As difficult as it may sound, you’ll be glad in the long run!
  • Try to match the colour of your brow kit to the colour of your hair. The NYX products comes in different shades and tones to suit blondes, brunettes and red heads.
  • When filling in your brows place your thumb on the nose bridge and then mark both sides with your pencil or powder. Start filling ladies – the bigger the better!

We have never enjoyed a dubbed video more than this…ever!

These deer just really, really want to make a new friend. 

As they approach a cat, they try their hardest to make some friendly conversation, but the cat isn’t having any of it…hilarity ensues.

Angelina Jolie’s wedding dress wasn’t the only one to be revealed to the world today!

Following Ashlee Simpson’s wedding to Evan Ross, photos from the couple’s big day have emerged – and the bride looks stunning!

Ashlee has been dating Evan, who is Diana Ross’ son, since July of last year and announced their engagement back in January with a lovely photo on Twitter, writing: "My baby and I are ENGAGED!!! Hallelujah Hawaii!!!!!"

They were married at Diana Ross' estate in Connecticut last Sunday. 

The wedding was an all-star event with Ashlee’s sister, Jessica Simpson, in attendance with her husband Eric as well as Scrubs’ star, Donald Faison.

Unfortunately for the star, the day was rainy, but by the looks of things, this didn’t spoil her big day!

Ashlee wore a long-sleeved lace gown with her long blonde hair loose and gorgeous shoes which actually matched her headpiece – now that we love!

Jessica was a bridesmaid for her little sister and was wearing a white lace dress with her hair worn very similar to the bride’s.

The bridesmaid’s wore different gowns, edging away from the classic matching bridesmaid dresses trend.

This was Ashlee's second wedding, as she was previously married to Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz, with whom she has one child, Bronx Mowgli. 

Congratulations to Ashlee and Evan on their big day!

You may not have a lot of money to spend on your friend’s actual present, but that doesn’t mean you can’t jazz it up with some fancy gift wrapping! Even that fancy pen you got her will create a few ‘wows’ when you produce it in a pretty box – so what are you waiting for?

Cone wrapping
How could anyone not love a gift that comes wrapped like this? It’d almost be a shame to open it!

Crepe paper and empty toilet rolls
Wondering what to do with all those empty toilet rolls piling up in the bathroom? Well now you can give your friends gifts like little bottles of nail polish and wrap them up like this – perfect!

Interactive wrapping paper
Well everything is gone interactive these days, hasn’t it? Why should gift wrapping be any different? While some people may just call you lazy, others will be amazed at your ability to think outside the box. You gotta know your audience with this one!

Love hearts
This one is perfect if your gifting you're significant other (not that boys appreciate pretty wrapping, but anyway!). Just wrap it in red paper, and again in brown paper, having cut out a few half hearts beforehand. Then all you do is fold them out, and voilà! Beautiful!

Mouse box
We don’t have any presents to give any time soon, but we might just make this anyway. It’d be perfect for any little brothers or sisters especially!

Newspaper
Perhaps your friend is a journalist, or just reads the paper a lot. Either way, it’s a much more dignified end to an old edition than using it to mop up the kitchen after your dog was left in for too long.

A Pringles box
If you’re REALLY broke, then why not bake a few cookies, put them in an old pringles box and wrap it up nicely? It looks nice, and while you may not have spent a fortune, they’ll appreciate your efforts!

There are some people that just shouldn't be out in public. Here are the types of people it is perfectly acceptable to be annoyed with (in your head, not out loud because that's just rude).

1. Slow Walkers
The worst of the worst. They don’t seem to have a care in the world, as you walk directly behind them huffing because you can't get past. This does not apply to old people. It does, however, apply to groups of friends who walk five abreast across the pavement. MOVE IN. 

2. Inconsiderate Smokers
If you are a smoker, please be aware of where you are blowing the smoke. Into our faces is so not cool. 

3. Smelly People
Whether it be B.O. or just a fart, our nostrils shouldn’t have to deal with either.

4. Large Groups Of Young People
This may make us sound ancient but there’s no way the rest of you aren’t annoyed if a big group is stopped in the middle of the street, seemingly unaware of the busy people trying to get by them.

5. Loud Phone Conversations
If we wanted to eavesdrop on your conversation we'd be standing much closer to you. Lower your voice.

6. Bad Parking
TWO spaces?! Are you serious? Parking jerk. 

7.  Not Washing Their Hands After Using The Toilet
Oh, yes. We saw you. 

8. Rude People
You think we held that door open or let you past me for no reason? A little “thank you” goes a long way.

9. PDA
What happens in the gif below should happen to any couple who ever goes over the top in any show of affection. There should be PDA Wardens patrolling the street with 7 or 8 rolls of sellotape on their belt.

10. Staring
Please stop. What's on me?!

11. Loud Music
Who listens to Prodigy at 6am? No one, that's who. 

12. Cyclists Who Don’t Know How/Where To Cycle
The roads are for cycling, and the paths are for walking. And when it’s a red light for the cars, it’s a red light for the bicycles as well. It’s not that hard. 

13. Queue Skipping
Nope.

Lena Dunham has graced us with what is most definitely the best no make-up selfie of all time – sorry Nicole Richie!

Showing us that we can’t all look as Flawless as Beyoncé or Michelle Keegan, we applaud Lena for her honest account of what our mornings actually look like.

The creator and star of Girls shared the photo on her Instagram account, writing: “Is this what Beyonce was singing about? (Also, pretty depressing that this look isn’t even fuelled by one ounce of alcohol)."

Welcome to our Monday mornings, Lena – we welcome you with open arms. 

Lena has also been sharing her opinion on the current hacking scandal which has seen celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence, Kirsten Dunst and more have their private photos shared online.

The Girls star has been vocal in how wrong these leaks are, writing: “Remember, when you look at these pictures you are violating these women again and again. It’s not okay … Seriously, do not forget that the person who stole these pictures and leaked them is not a hacker: they’re a sex offender.”

Leandra Becerra Lumbreras turned 127 on August 31st, which makes her the oldest person ever (although she hasn’t got the birth cert to prove it as she lost it while moving house 40 years ago, but we’ll take her word for it!).

Leandra was born in 1887, which would have made her 27 when World War I began, 58 when World War II broke out, and 82 when the first man stepped foot on the moon.

You’d think that living through two world wars would take its toll on the body, but Leandra says her secret was eating lots of chocolate, sleeping for days on end, and never getting married.

There is a downside to living for so long, as Leandra has had to bury all of her children, and several of her grandchildren. However, she does have 73 great-grandchildren and 55 great-great-grandchildren – so she has plenty of family around her!

Her granddaughter Miriam Alvear said: “She is entirely lucid. She blows your mind with her stories from the revolution.

“She was always a woman who fought. She was still sewing and weaving until about two years ago. She never ceased to be active, that’s why we think she’s lived so long.”

Since Leandra doesn’t have the birth cert to prove her age, Misao Okawa still holds the title of World’s Oldest Person, at 116-years-old. The authorities of Mexico however, are working on issuing Leandra with a new birth cert.

In the meantime, we’re going to go eat some chocolate and take a nap!
