Ariana Grande's Viva Glam collection for MAC has had beauty fanatics in a flutter since it was first teased last year, and it's finally about to go on sale here.

The 22-year-old singer took over from Miley Cyrus this year as the new face of MAC's charity cosmetics collection, launching two new products.

Ariana's Viva Glam Lipstick is an intensely dark matte purple, while her Viva Glam LipGlass is a light shimmering pink. According to MAC, the collection is a nod to every girl's "good" and "bad" side.

Both lippies have just today gone on sale in the UK, but they're not available for purchase in Ireland just yet. Don't worry though, you won't have long to wait.

Here's what we know so far…

When you can buy them
The Ariana Grande Viva Glam collection will go on sale in Irish stores on February 4, with an RRP of €20 for the Viva Glam Lipstick and €19 for the Viva Glam LipGlass.

Where you can buy them
Ariana's collection will be available for Irish beauty queens exclusively at MAC counters in Brown Thomas and BT2 stores, or online at brownthomas.com

Where your hard-earned cash is going
Like Miley's campaign last year, all the proceeds (after VAT) from Ariana's products will go towards helping adults and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS.

We are giving Ariana major props for the very relevant title of her brand new Christmas EP.

The name Christmas and Chill is enough to get us banging out these tunes until New Years Day. 

Ariana surprised fans yesterday on social media when she announced her special early Christmas present for all of her her devoted fans. 

The EP is comprised of six ORIGINAL Christmas songs (not just covers folks!) and we reckon they are modern festive masterpieces. 

You can buy the EP on iTunes now or listen to on Spotify if you have an account. 

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and chilling period!

While Teresa Mannion became a national treasure over the weekend, she also became a global phenomenon. 

While the RTE reporter was all over social media following the clip broadcast on Saturday, epic weather report was also picked up by news outlets all around the world. 

And so it seems that Teresa's storm Desmond reporting is not just hilarious to us Irish, as now we have a bona fide international celebrity enjoying the clip. 

Ariana Grande posted several Snapchat stories of herself and a friend enjoying the video before doing an impression of poor aul Teresa. 

And it's pretty clear that Ariana finds the whole thing HILARIOUS. 

Playing the vid at high speed, she and her dancer Brian can be heard giggling throughout the clip. The next video shows her and Brian doing an impression of Teresa in slow motion. 

Watch the hilarious clip below. 

Teresa Mannion, you are a legend.

It might be 2015, but we were feeling a serious 90s vibe as we watched last night's American Music Awards.

From Kylie Jenner's leather n' chains cut-out dress to the very presence of J-Lo and P Diddy on the same stage, the awards show was completely jam-packed with nostalgia from our very favourite decade.

By the time Alanis Morisette stepped out to duet on You Oughta Know with Demi Lovato, we were about ready to root out our old Spice Girls posters and start blaring Jackie's Army in preparation for Italia 90.

If you were watching last night, you know doubt spotted some of these oh-so 90s elements:

1. Kylie Jenner's red carpet look 
She raided Christina Aguilera's 1999 wardrobe.

 

2. Gigi Hadid's all-white cut-out dress
The thigh slit, the halter neck, the criss-cross detailing – Ginger Spice eat your heart out.

 

3. J-Lo shaking her booty just as we remembered
Jennifer Lopez is more about singing and producing these days, but last night she (and her curves) took a trip down memory lane.

All hail Queen J-Lo.

BOW DOWN.

 

 

4. P-Diddy giving a shout-out to the woman herself, making us wish they were still together

All the feels. And look at them there, having fun like old times at the after-party:

 

5. Jenny McCarthy's thigh high platform boots

 

6. And, of course, Ariana Grande in that eternal 90s favourite, the white platform heel
Again, something we reckon Ginger Spice would have killed for.

 

7. US singer Z LaLa harking back to The Little Mermaid with her octopus costume

 

8. Alicia Silverstone and Jeremy Sisto reliving their Clueless days on stage

We prefer to think of them like this:

 

9. And finally, Alanis Morisette and Demi Lovato giving it socks to You Oughta Know
*shrieks*

Jonathan Ross had a few choice words for singer Ariana Grande on Friday night, after she failed to show up to a recording of his show.

The 22-year-old had been due to arrive at the ITV studios at 7pm, but by 7.30pm was not even en route. In the end, her performance and interview were both pulled, with no explanation from Ariana.

“Ariana is in town. We were told she would be in the car at 6pm to be here for 7pm then it got to 7pm and she was not in the car – 7.30pm and she is still not in the motherf***ing car," Jonathan told the audience at the start of the show. 

"She was booked but the lazy little f***er has not come…and we have people from the record company here.

"They seem as perplexed by this behaviour as we are."

Despite his anger, the host still threw in a joke, suggesting that maybe Ariana had ditched the show to try out "her first Nando's."

The show went ahead as planned, with other guests Danny DeVito, Joan Collins and Sheridan Smith plugging the gap by giving longer interviews… and even singing Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 together.

After that diss, we doubt Ariana will be appearing on ITV any time soon.

All the same, she didn't seem too bothered while on her flight to Madrid yesterday with her brother Frankie:

 

we all know that 1 person……… @frankiejgrande

Streaks, patches, unmatched foundation… When it comes to fake tan disasters us Irish ladies have experienced every single one, and we can spot them a mile off too.

So we could definitely empathise with Ariana Grande yesterday when the singer stepped out with a less-than-even golden glow.

Ariana was in London to launch her debut fragrance ARI for Boots, and while she still managed to look amazing, her tan left a lot to be desired.

Fans were quick to notice that Ariana's foundation was a fair few shades lighter than the rest of her body, and there were noticeably patchy areas on her chest and neck.

Second-day tan, for sure.

Whatever about her bronzed look, Ariana's hair was definitely on point – since earlier this week she's been rocking on ombre style with a mix of blonde and brown.

And the singer seemed to have a perfect day at the launch, despite not being able to interact much with her fans due to security constraints.

"What I was yelling was I'm sorry I can't hug / come out to u'. the security guys here wouldn't let me outside& I'm really upset. I'm sorry," she wrote on Twitter.

"I love u the most. but seeing you earlier today made me so happy," she added.

Don't get on Ariana Grande's bad side… or Ariel Winter's for that matter.

The pair unexpectedly teamed up on Instagram yesterday to shut down commenters who were pitting them against each other.

Ariana's anger was initially sparked by a comment on her own Instagram account from a follower calling her a "sexy stick" and saying he'd choose Ariel Winter over her.

The Problem singer soon hit back with her own criticism, lashing out at the user for "body shaming" and accusing him or her of "objectifying" women.

"We live in a day and age where people make it IMPOSSIBLE for women, men, anyone to embrace themselves exactly how they are," she wrote.

 

A photo posted by Ariana Grande (@arianagrande) on

"Diversity is sexy! Loving yourself is sexy! You know what is NOT sexy? Misogyny, objectifying, labeling, comparing and body shaming!!!"

It wasn't long before Ariel herself spotted the message, and made it clear she totally agreed with Ariana's stance.

"I love the message you're putting out there," wrote the actress, who recently underwent a breast reduction to help combat her own body image issues.

"I especially believe in today's world we all need to stick together I believe in EMPOWERING other women and not putting them down… You ARE beautiful."

This is not the first time Ariana has taken it upon herself to show her online haters what's what. A few months back she delivered an epic shut-down for one commenter who dared to criticise the size of her boobs:

Amazing.

Ariana Grande, performed last night at the iHeartRadio Theater in Burbank, and A LOT happened during the show.

First, Arianna performed Focus for the first time live and announced that actor Jamie Foxx is the mystery voice in the video (FINALLY we know the truth).

Then, as things were winding down mid-show, someone decided to throw a phone at Ariana's face. Yep, at her face.

Now, many of us would be very annoyed by this but Ms Grande handled it in the best way possible.

"Did someone throw a phone at me?" she asked. "Did someone just throw a phone on stage? That's so dangerous. What if your screen cracked?"​

Not caring that the smartphone hit her, Ariana joked that the phone might have hurt itself. Well said, Ariana, well said.

Earlier this year, Harry Potter star Tom Felton and Ariana Grande exchanged funny tweets about what Hogwarts house Ariana belonged to. 

He chose Gryffindor for the pop princess, but she later went on to tell him that her Pottermore account had sorted her into Slytherin.

But this week, the two celebs struck up another Twitter conversation after Ariana shared a meme of her blonde self as Lucius Malfoy standing next to a platinum-dyed Draco. 

Tom replied by offering his acting services for Ms Grande's next music video, commenting that he could "dig up a very dashing white wig" if necessary.

But even better, Ariana (who is ever the Harry Potter superfan) said she's so ready for this to happen.

Her new song, Focus, will need a video sometime soon, so maybe Tom might just be on to something here. One thing for sure though, we really hope this happens.

As fas as we knows, Ariana has been single since April when she split with her boyfriend Big Sean after eight months of being together.

Although there were rumours that Ms Grande was dating her backup dancer back in July, nothing has been confirmed. 

Speculation about the 22-year-old's love life have since died down – until now, that is. 

Ariana posted a sneaky picture to her Instagram page last night that has her fans totally freaking out. 

The steamy snap shows two people hidden behind a curtain, and all you see is their feet peeking out from the bottom.

One person is wearing a pair of white pointed heels (which we can assume is Ariana) and the other is is wearing high-top runners, and the way they are standing suggests they might be kissing. 

Ari captioned the photo, "the sun is setting and you're right here by my side."

Sounds like she has a new boyfriend, right?

Obviously, her IG went crazy with fans wondering who is the other person behind the curtain, which is why she swiftly deleted it moments later.

Ariana Grande has teased clue after clue about her upcoming single, Focus, but it wasn't until today that she unveiled the cover art for the song that will be released on October 30. 

The singer made a DRASTIC hair change, much like Kylie Jenner has in the past few months. 

Yes, Ariana went platinum blonde. The new look cover photo was shot by her friend Alfredo Flores, and she's seen wearing a small bra top, pearl earrings and her usual half-ponytail hair style. 

A strong light is also cast over the 22-year-old, creating an intense shadow from behind. 

Ms Grande has been dropping hints about her new song for a week now, and very cleverly uploading blurred out photos to her Instagram account, focusing in (see, clever!) on the art every day to make it clearer. 

She's been doing the same to the lyrics, which she unblurs every few days. 

It seems like Ariana's blonde do' isn't permanent though as she's currently back to her brown locks, but fingers crossed she sports the platinum hair in the Focus music video.

In 2003 things were so much simpler. Balyage was not a trend you needed to try and attempt, oddly chunky highlights would suffice and nobody was trying to convince you that taking selfies where you were vomiting rainbows was cool.

Television was also so much easier to handle. Once a week all you had to do was turn on the channel that showed One Tree Hill, once a week and you were sorted. It was the home of Chad Michael Murray, who won all the awards for being the best looking guy on TV at the time.

He was also in the Gilmore Girls.

Whether you were a fan of either, chances are you would not mind having him grace us with his presence again.

Well, good news. He’s coming back to TV. Hurrah!

Unfortunately he won’t be running around topless with basketball shorts on, although one can still dream

The 34-year old actor is going to join the cast of the horror series Scream Queens. He joins Patrick Schwarzenegger, Lea Michele, Emma Roberts and Ariana Grande.

While he has had a number of TV roles since OTH ended in 2012, many of his fans are sure to get very excited at the prospect of him showing up in another school centred series.

The series premiere will air 22 September in the US so we're going to have plenty of time to re-watch the entire nine seasons of One Tree Hill to re-educate ourselves in the ways of Chad and his quietly handsome stare. Excellent.
