The death of Amy WInehouse in 2011 sent shock waves throughout the music industry.

Widely considered one of the most talented singer/ songwriters of her generation, her passing five years ago left a void which has yet to be filled by any other.

And while many would consider Adele on par with the late singer, the When We Were Young singer is keen to remind the public that if it wasn't for Amy's influence, it's unlikely we would have ever heard of her.

Speaking to her audience during her sold-out TD Garden Arena concert in Boston this week, Adele insisted: "I feel like I owe 90 percent of my career to her,"

Paying tribute to the singer on what would have been her 33rd birthday, Adele continued: "Because of her, I picked up a guitar and because of her, I wrote my own songs."

"The songs I got signed on were the songs that I wrote completely on my own – if it wasn't for her, that wouldn't have happened. Her first album, Frank, it really changed my life."

Recalling the influence Amy had on her as an aspiring performer, the mum-of-one added: "I'd see her on TV or in magazine shoots with a pink electric guitar," she continued to the cheering crowd, "I used to think she was the coolest motherf****r on the face of the Earth."

Amy was one of a long line of musicians who died at the age of 27.

Look, you can't be Kim Kardashian without being a tad self-obsessed, right?

From taking selfies while her sister headed to jail to releasing an actual book of her favourites, Kim always has and always will be Kim's biggest fan.

But her latest stunt has actually led people to question if Kim is more than happy to feed into the perception we have her.

Taking to Twitter to wish her assistant a happy birthday last night, the mum of two shared multiple photos which purported to mark her friendship with Steph Sheppard, but really just showcased her famous curves.

In fact, a snap which Kim claimed was her favourite of the pair didn't even feature Steph… unless you count her shadow, that is.

And if that wasn't bad enough, Kim then decided to call her mate out on a habit we all have when it comes to our friend's uneaten food.

"Seriously, @steph_shep thanks for always having my back and eating all my leftovers so they don't go to waste!"

But it looks like Kim knew exactly what she was doing with the series of snaps as she eventually called herself out.

"In all seriousness I'm going 2 be totally selfless for this 1 last post. Thanks 4 being my main bitch! Happy Birthday!"

In fairness though, you STILL can't see Steph's face.

Well played Kim, well played.

For a very long time, Prince William was considered the more desirable of the two royal brothers.

But while the rest of the ladies in our life fawned all over Will, we've always known that Prince Harry's day would come. 

And as anticipated, the rest of the world eventually caught up with us and realised that the red hair, the cheeky grin and the air of mischief which surrounded the younger prince was super appealing.

So, in honour of his 32nd birthday today, we've compiled a list of times we realised Prince Harry was hot AF.

1. The time he called a spade a spade.

2. The time we needed to have his babies.

3. The time he did his bit for feminism.

4. The time he winked at us.

5. The time his road rage mirrored ours.

6. Oh, and then there was this….

If anyone needs us, we'll be lying in a darkened room.

Like almost everything else she has dealt with in life, actress and writer, Lena Dunham, has been exceedingly candid about her struggles with Endometriosis.

Opening up about the condition in her newsletter, Lena wrote: "From the first time I got my period, it didn’t feel right. The stomachaches began quickly and were more severe than the mild-irritant cramps seemed to be for the blonde women in pink-hued Midol commercials."

"Those might as well have been ads for yoghurt or the ocean, that’s how little they conveyed my experience of menstruating," she added.
 

And after more than a decade living with with the condition, Lena eventually underwent surgery in the past year and insists the procedure has had a profound impact on her life. 

"I am strong because of what I’ve dealt with," she said. "I am oddly fearless for a wimp with no upper body strength. And I am no longer scared of my body. In fact, I listen to it when it speaks."

Confirming this, Lena took to Instagram last night to share a snap of herself at a pool party she attended alongside her Girls co-stars.

"Mother bleeping pool party at the Hilton Garden Inn," she wrote, "Say hi guys! The pool party rages on."

Making reference to her condition and the surgery she underwent last November, she added: "When the Target swimsuit does a b**ch right, Endo scars & all."

Following the surgery, Lena told fans and followers: "I was better than I had been in ten years."

You go, Lena!

Following a whirlwind three-month romance which played out in front of the world's cameras, Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston's highly-publicised relationship took a sudden turn.

The pair, who went in for some serious spew-inducing PDA over the course of the summer, hurtled towards splitsville before eventually parting ways last week.

And it sounds like Calvin Harris, also known as Adam Wiles, saw it coming from miles off.

The Scottish DJ, who dated Taylor for 15 months, was – like the rest of us – privy to the comings and goings of Hiddleswift, and apparently he didn't see it ending well.

Speaking to E! News, an insider admitted that the break-up was no big shock, saying: "Adam is not surprised that the relationship did not work with Tom and Taylor."

"He is just happy not to be in the relationship anymore and realised they were not a good fit in the end, but he wishes her the best." they added.

And while Taylor is reportedly swearing off men for the foreseeable future in an effort to concentrate on her career, Calvin is more than happy to play the field right now.

"He is dating a few different women," the source told the station. "Nothing has stuck. He is not looking for a relationship at all, just fun times with friends."

So, Calvin and Taylor's break-up might still be fresh in the minds of fans, but it sounds like the DJ is chill as ever.

" Adam is in a much better place after the breakup with Taylor.”

Well, good to know, right?

Stars of The Only Way is Essex – both past and present –  aren't exactly known for the natural look.

From botox and lip fillers to boob jobs and butt implants, the guys and gals of the BAFTA Award-winning show make no secret of their love for the surgeon's scalpel.

And yet, Amy Childs and Danielle Armstrong, both of whom made a name for themselves on the reality television show, have decided to take part in a campaign which seeks to raise awareness of the dangers associated with cosmetic surgery.

In stark advertisements for non-surgical alternative 3D-lipo, Amy and Danielle are pictured in coffins with the words 'Dying to be beautiful' emblazoned across the bottom.

Commenting on the hard-hitting campaign, managing Director of 3D-Lipo, Roy Cowley explained: "The message of our Dying To Be Beautiful Campaign is very simple, exactly that; You don’t need to die to look great."

Unfortunately for many involved, the public aren't buying it, and wasted no time taking to Twitter to scorn the campaign.

"I almost spat my drink out when I read that article," wrote one social media user last night. "Both don't even look real with the amount of sh*t they've had done."

"Is this a complete p*ss take?" asked another. "Both look ridden with cosmetic surgery, defies the whole point/message!"

"Well, that's a bit hypocritical. Worst two on the show for it! LOL!" added one of Danielle's followers.

Well, that went well… ahem.

When she cut loose and got down with James Corden during Carpool Karaoke, Michelle Obama confirmed what everyone had been thinking for years – she's a legend, plain and simple.

While we'd have been happy to dine out on that footage for the next year or so, Ellen DeGeneres made sure we wouldn't have to by inviting Michelle on a trip to the local CVS store.

And it's everything we could have wanted and more.

Happily playing mammy to Ellen's bold child role, Michelle indulged the chat show host by taking a trip around the grocery store like some mere mortal, and it turns out she finds the whole damn thing as stressful as the rest of us.

With almost 100,000 views since its upload this afternoon, this is the trip that just keeps on giving.

It's well known that some people feel the need to get their locks chopped at the end of a relationship

But by the looks of things, it's not only saying goodbye to a relationship that makes you want to get snip-happy at the salon if Sara Ramirez's recent Instagram upload is anything to go by.

Sara, who played Dr Callie Torres for the best part of a decade in the long-running medical drama, made a decision to take her leave of the show earlier this year, and she's switched up her image to mark the new chapter in her life.

 

#AlreadyTimeForATrim #FastGrowingHair #HappyMonday

Sporting a super-cropped style, 41-year-old Sara wrote: "Already time for a trim. Fast growing hair. Happy Monday."

The photo, which has amassed 87,000 likes since its upload earlier this week, has been inundated with comments from fans who are lovin' the new look.

"She looks flawless," wrote one while another added: "Omg! That's so diff, but you are still stunning, like really!" (sic)

"It doesn't matter how long or short your hair is," wrote one of Sara's fans. "You are BEAUTIFUL. Will miss you on Grey's but I am looking forward to your next acting adventure."

We think she looks amazing.

Whoopi Goldberg has been a constant in our lives for as long as we can remember.

From her role in Sister Act and its sequel to her portrayal of Oda Mae Brown in Ghost, Whoopi has brought love and laughter to the silver screen for the best part of three decades.

And yet despite her countless movie and television appearances, there's one thing about the actress which millions of people have failed to notice…. until now.

Ladies, prepare yourselves for this one – Whoopi Goldberg has no eyebrows.

The revelation has caused thousands of Twitter users to question both their perception skills and the fact that Whoopie has gone eyebrowless… by choice.

1.  A big day, indeed

2. How did NONE of us realise it?

3. What are any of our lives? 

We mean, you think you know someone…

Her conception, birth and paternity made headlines between 2006 and 2007, and yet the second eldest daughter of former Spice Girl, Mel B, is rarely seen in public.

And while Maddie, the daughter Mel shares with Stephen Belafonte often appears by her mum's side at work, nine-year-old Angel Iris seemed a little camera-shy.

However, it looks like Angel, who was at the centre of a bitter legal battle between Mel and former partner Eddie Murphy, might get a taste for the spotlight after accompanying her mum and younger half-sister to the set of America's Got Talent yesterday.

Looking totally unfazed by the cameras, Angel and Madison posed alongside their mum who was clearly thrilled to have her youngest two daughters by her side before the night's taping.

Taking to Instagram in the lead-up to their red carpet moment, Mel, who has since made peace with Eddie Murphy after he demanded a paternity test for Angel, shared a snap of the trio with followers, writing: "Me and my kiddies are ready to go live on @nbcagt. Boom."

The mum-of-three then shared another rare photo of herself in public with her little ones, writing: "It's take kids to work day at @nbcagt with my queens."

Mel's fans were thrilled by the singer's insight into the relationship she shares with her daughters, with one writing: "I love Maddie's Mel hair and Angel's braids. I'm a Wannabe of your family."

"You all look so stunning! Beautiful like their mommy. Great show tonight, wow!" gushed one of the 41-year-old star's followers while another added: "They are so precious. And you look amazing."

We're with them on that one.

You definitely know you're getting old when you begin truly noticing the cyclical nature of fashion.

While the teenyboppers among us may be fawning over the 'latest' trends on the high street, there are an embarrassing number of us who remember them the first time around.

From last season's 90s-inspired leather backpacks and bomber jackets to this season's noughties-inspired embellished belts, one-shouldered tops and pinstripes, there are some of us at SHEmazing! HQ who could easily save a few bob this Autumn / Winter by raiding our teenage closets.

With that in mind, we have put together some of the most cringe-worthy looks which signalled the beginning of the millennium and the end of our love affair with Britney's wardrobe.

1. Denim blazers

If there are two words which clash more, we've yet to hear them.

2. Velour tracksuits

Comfortable? Yes. Stylish? Yes… at the time, that is.

3. Boleros

No seriously, what the hell was the point?

4. Uber-baggy cargos

Extra points if your tum was toned as the Girls Aloud gals

5. Uneven hemlines

Less leg or more leg? We could never decide, and thankfully we didn't have to.

Ladies, dare we ask how long will it be before this classic Britney look makes a reappearance?

While we've always found Ben & Jerry's works best in the aftermath of a break-up, there is a school of thought which says the best way to get over a man is to get under another.

And it sounds like Gigi Hadid is a true believer in that one.

Barely a week after Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston called time on their three-month relationship, Taylor's BFF has decided it's time for her squad leader to move on… with a new man.

And in a bizarre turn of events considering the singer's relationship history, Taylor isn't actually with Gigi on that one.

Speaking to HollywoodLife, a source close to the ladies, said: "Gigi and Zayn want to set Taylor up with some of their friends but Taylor has no interest whatsoever.”

"Gigi and Zayn want Taylor to go on some double dates with them, and go out and be social," the insider explained before revealing that Taylor has different priorities right now.

It sounds like the Shake It Off singer has decided to take advice from Selena Gomez who reportedly encouraged the singer to focus on her career rather than potential relationships for the time being.

"Taylor knows they mean well," the insider continued. "But she’s choosing to remain solo and concentrate on new music."

Selena 1: Gigi 0
