Some of your favourite stars are doing the most hilarious challenge

The My Elf challenge is baffling, festive – and utterly hilarious. This trend started as a joke and a way to get into the Christmas spirit a couple of weeks ago when people took inspiration from the Elf on the Shelf's catchy rhyming title and decided to do their own versions. The trend started with American actress, television personality and author Garcelle Beauvis posting a photo of herself on Pharell’s shoulder. The image is captioned ‘You’ve heard of Elf on a Shelf, now get ready for this…’

The trend quickly spread, with many of our favourite celebrities hopping on the hilariously Christmassy bandwagon. Some of our favourites are featured below.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Jennifer Lopez (@jlo)

She captioned the brilliant post 'I couldn’t decide on just one!! Comment below with your fave!! #LennyOnJenny #CeeloOnJLo #MiloOnJLo #KyloOnJLo @lennykravitz @ceelogreen 

@miloanthonyventimiglia @starwars #KyloRen #MyElf #ElfOnAShelf'

JLo's take was probably one of the more creative ones, as she came up with several versions of the rhyming trends, each one better than the last. Kylo on the JLo has to be the best though!

Next was Elizabeth Banks, comedy star of 'The Hunger Games' and 'Pitch Perfect', with the 'perfect' pun for her 'My Elf' Challenge.

She captioned the post 'I know you’ve all heard of Elf on a Shelf, but have you heard of…', which prompted Reese Witherspoon to try it out for herself too!

'Oh hey @elizabethbanks!' The actress posted. 'I see your Hanks-on-Banks and I raise you a Grease-on-Reese. #myelf'

This one is definitely our favourite!

Kerry Washington also got inspired, putting a flamboyant Katy Perry on her shoulder for the challenge.

Mark Ruffalo, Mariah Carey and plenty more joined in, letting us lol our way through the holidays with them this Christmas season!

Mark's caption had us lolling as it instigated a flood of new My Elf Challenges. 

'@elizabethbanks, I raise your Hanks on Banks with a Stark on Mark!'

But I think we can all agree the Queen of Christmas stole the crown for this challenge!

The ‘That 70s Show’ star and ex-boyfriend of Demi Lovato, Wilmer Valderrama (40) and fiancée Amanda Pacheco, have announced they have a baby on the way in 2021!

The announcement came yesterday afternoon in the form of a stunning maternity shoot of Wilmer and fiancée Amanda, which gave off serious retro rally-driver vibes. Such a different and creative photo shoot with their bump!

Amanda and Wilmer both posted the photos captioned "#itsjustus3now," on Instagram, letting the world know their big news. Fans and friends alike flocked to offer their congratulations, including Joe Jonas, Avril Lavigne and Wilmer’s ex, Mandy Moore.  

Wilmer and Amanda announced their engagement at the start of 2020, captioning the Instagram announcement ‘It’s just us now’. It’s so cute that they’ve altered the caption to include their little bump! They got engaged on a San Diego beach, complete with a dreamy photo shoot.

The pair have been rumoured to be dating since April 2019 and seemed to confirm the relationship by going to Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s French wedding together a couple of months later.

Pacheco is a PADI divemaster and model according to her Instagram and we can see why – her Instagram feed is an endless scroll of stunning beach photo shoots.

The mum, who welcomed her daughter Mia in July, expressed her hopes for her daughter in the touching letter.

“I hope Mia has the same bond with Gorks as what we had… I had 17 Incredible years with him and for that I’m forever grateful,” she continued.

Stacey shared that she’s been eager to spend some quality time with her darling son and finally got the time to this week.

“I’ve been desperate to give him some undivided attention for a long time so Last night was a dream” she shared.

The mum gushed,  “I love you Zachary, we’ve been through so much together, and for a long time it was just the two of us. You’ve been by my side for 11 years and have pulled me through and lifted me up when I really needed it.

Jessica Simpson says she is happy to feel like herself again after losing an incredible 100 pounds. 

The mum showed off her beautiful figure in an all black ensemble. 

Jessica, who is a mum to three gorgeous kiddos, said she weighed 240 pounds when she was expecting her youngest bubba, Birdie.

The mum wrote, “6 months. 100 pounds down (Yes, I tipped the scales at 240)

“My first trip away from #BIRDIEMAE and emotional for many reasons, but so proud to feel like myself again. Even when it felt impossible, I chose to work harder,” Jessica shared.

In an interview with People, the singer’s personal trainer said she called him days after welcoming her daughter, eager to start her fitness journey.

Her trainer, Harley Pasternak said: “I’ve kind of helped her come back after each baby, and this is a bit different, in that she said she was tipping the scales at 240 [post-delivery].

“This is sort of the aggregate of being pregnant nonstop for a decade, and so we had a little more of a challenge between this and the other ones,” he shared.

He explained that they focused on a holistic lifestyle approach instead of spending every second in the gym.

The trainer added, “The difference between this and the other times was that she worked out, yes, but her transformation was more about what she did on her own time.”

Jessica was more motivated than ever, “She was saying that her body has not belonged to her for the past decade. Not in a bad way, in a positive way — her body has been designated to create life and now it’s hers again and she’s going to make it fantastic in a really enjoyable way.”

Fair play to Jessica. She looks unbelievable.

Strictly Come Dancing winner Kevin Clifton is apparently 'fuming' over his partnership with 60-year-old TV veteran Anneka Rice, according to The Sun.

Show insiders claim that the Grimsby-born dancer sees his celebrity dance pairing as a 'punishment' from BBC bosses for his relationship with Stacey Dooley.

Kevin and now-girlfriend Stacey had chemistry to burn last year, going on to win the entire competition in December before going public with their romance in March.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by BBC (@bbc) on

Stacey had been in a long-term relationship while she was competing on the show, and both herself and Kevin deny that any romance sparked before they took home the Glitterball trophy.

36-year-old Kevin believes bosses are 'putting the boot in' for the media furore following their romance and says they've 'sabotaged his dream' of winning wo years in a row, a source told The Sun;

"Kevin has told pals he would have preferred someone like Catherine Tyldesley or Alex Scott. He calls himself King Kevin and wanted to make Strictly history by winning back to back titles."

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by (@strictlyglitterball) on

They added; "But although Anneka is willing, her age and agility means he won’t be able to throw her around like he did previous partners."

Kevin and Anneka paired up on Saturday's launch, and The Challenge star admitted that she's never danced in public and was ruled out of a group dance after injuring herself during rehearsal.

The noticeable height difference between them was also commented on by viewers.

Kevin has a great track record on the massively popular BBC dance contest, making the finals with every partner except Susan Calman.

Himself and Susanna Reid came in second during their time on the show, followed by Frankie Bridge, Kellie Bright and runner-up Louise Redknapp.

Kevin came in seventh place when partnered with comedian Susan two years ago, before winning the show with Stacey Dooley in 2018.

Love Island star Michael Griffiths has signed up for the Ex On The Beach celebrity special in America after failing to find love on the ITV2 reality show, The Sun reports.

The ex-firefighter ended up becoming the villa villain after dumping Amber Gill for Joanna Chimonides, only to stay in the villa without her when she was kicked out.

Joanna branded him 'a snake' but the pair have been spotted kissing after the show ended. They're maintaining that they're both single, however. Who knows what to believe?

The 28-year-old has signed up to the MTV reality show to change his fortunes, according to The Sun online source, who said;

"Michael was one of the stand-out stars on this year's Love Island thanks to his love triangle with Amber and Joanna.

"He's had a lot of female attention since leaving the villa but hasn't found that special someone, so he's hoping this show will help fix that."

Which one of his exes will appear on the show, though? We highly doubt it'll be 22-year-old Geordie Amber Gill, who is currently seeing her Love Island partner Greg O'Shea.

Michael will join a number of other former Love Island-ers on the new series, including Georgia Steel and Niall Aslam.

21-year-old Georgia and 26-year-old reality star Lateysha Grace are set to bring plenty of excitement (and drama) to the show, but Michael has the major villain label when it comes to dating.

Super-private couple Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx have reportedly ended their six-year relationship, with numerous sources confirming the split to various news outlets.

The couple allegedly split back in May, just weeks after their first red carpet appearance together at the Met Gala. Page Six reports that Katie was overheard telling friends that she has been single for a while.

"What Jamie does is his business, we haven’t been together for months," she reportedly said. Jamie was seen holding hands with Sela Vave, an upcoming singer and songwriter.

40-year-old Katie and 51-year-old Jamie were first linked in 2013, following her divorce from actor Tom Cruise.

The couple remained intensely private, and never officially confirmed their romance to the public or press. Their Met Gala debut this year, however, affirmed the worst-kept secret in Hollywood.

Jamie took to Instagram to share a family photo with his two daughters, 25-year-old Corinne Foxx and 10-year-old Anelise Bishop.

April, just one month before their split, a source told People that Katie and Jamie were trying to make time for each other as often as they could, but things evidently didn't work out.

"When they can spend time together, they do. When they're busy and they can't, they don’t," the source shared. "They are two adults who enjoy each other's company and have for a long time."

When it comes to influencers, some of the settings which are staged for that perfect shot look absolutely effortless. Too effortless, tbh… suspiciously effortless…

An absolutely gas video has been posted online by @TaylorLorenz which sheds light on the environmental factors which influencers endure.

Whether it's freezing cold weather, sunlight blazing in your eyes or just awkward angles, getting the perfect shot isn't as easy as it looks.

The video displays several influencers and bloggers jostling to take the perfect picture at an intersection in New York, 59th and 5th avenue;

They're working hard, to be fair; they've all gotta compete for the best image possible.

Apparently 59th and 5th is some kind of blogger hotspot, an aesthetically pleasing location which influencers have now plagued.

Some witty Twitter users have compared the video to a favourite dystopian show…

It is pretty reminiscent of THAT Bryce Dallas Howard episode, where everyone can rate each other and give points based on their image and personality, similar enough to Instagram.

 Whether you find the video disturbing, hilarious, mediocre or just plain creepy, it says a lot about how different today's social media world is.

We are hugely entertained by the reaction tweets though… keep 'em coming.
