When word got around that Justin Timberlake was about to drop his first track in three years, everyone just knew it was going to an absolute banger, and we weren't disappointed.

Can't Stop the Feeling has summer pints followed by a barbecue topped off by more summer pints written all OVER it, and we can't get enough.

We're clearly not the only ones thought because it looks like the internet is falling all over themselves this week after one very slick dad uploaded footage of him and his six-year-old daughter getting down to JT's latest track.

"Me and my 6 year old dancing to Justin Timberlake's newest song called Can't Stop The Feeling", YouTube user, jprindr1, wrote alongside the video which has clocked up almost 180,000 views. "I have a feeling this will be the song of the summer."

We're with him on that one.

It's rare a day passes when we don't hear of a viral which is said to be sending the world into a total tailspin, so it's no surprise we've become a little jaded about the whole thing.

However, it looks like one little lad and his love for Coldplay has managed to turn our cynicism around and legitimately hit us ALL in the feels this week.

In footage which was uploaded by his dad Luis, the little boy, who has been diagnosed with autism, can be seen psyching himself up for a concert in Mexico City's Foro Sal stadium before eventually taking his seat in front of the Grammy Award-winning band.

And then Chris and the lads launch into Fix You

In a moment which has pulled on the heartstrings of millions, Luis can be seen singing the song to his son who is so overcome by emotion he struggles to keep his composure.

And in one particularly poignant moment, Luis' little lad leans into him as the stadium fills with the sound of Coldplay fans singing the 2006 hit.

With the video clocking up millions of views, the band responded to Luis' tape on their official Facebook page, writing: "This kind of thing makes it all worthwhile.Hola Luis y tu hijo hermoso! (Hello Luis and your beautiful son) Love.”

We'll be the first to admit that there are some aspects of modern life which totally baffle us.

Programming the new TV or configuring the settings on our iPhone can have us scratching our head for days, so we GET this granny who seriously struggled to get to grips with one of these new-fangled pregnancy tests.

Clutching the curious little stick in her hands, this adorbs granny looked SO perplexed as she tried to figure out exactly what she was being told by her excited (and hugely patient) daughter and granddaughter.

And THEN the penny drops….

With three small children – the youngest of whom is still only four months old – already at home, Kristin Cavallari says she's definitely NOT having any more kids.

Mother to Camden, 3, Jaxon, 22 months, and Saylor, 4 months, we can imagine the reality TV star and her husband, professional athlete Jay Cutler, have their hands full.

In fact, they're absolutely sure that their family is now complete; in fact, Jay, 32, is being sent off for the snip.

“We’re taking permanent [birth control] measures. We’ll just leave it at that,” the 29-year-old revealed this week referring to a vasectomy.

And with two boys already in the family, the Kristin was particularly delighted to welcome baby Saylor last November. 

“She’s going to steal Jay’s heart, which will in turn melt mine!” Ms Cavallari said at the time. 

“I’m excited for the boys to grow up with a sister. I think it will help them to better understand and respect women.”

Scotty T has revealed devastating news and has admitted he's "all over the place" after hearing his auntie is dying from cancer.

The reality star spoke to the Daily Star and said: "We’ve had some really bad news in the family so it is hard to concentrate on anything else. My aunt has been given six weeks to live due to lung cancer. 

“It’s my dad’s sister. I’ve just got my dad a flight back from Tenerife where he lives and then a one-way ticket to Australia so he can go see her. I’m flying out to Australia later this month for ten days. I’m just changing all my plans around so I can go.”

He then added: “The whole family is devastated and everyone is flying out to say goodbye.

"My cousin is only 15 and his mum has just weeks to live.”

This is such a tough time for him and his family and we're hoping they all make it through OK.

We love a good pregnancy reveal story, and the fact that this one takes place at 10,000 metres makes it all the sweeter.

Mum-to-be Lisa Sadiwynk recently boarded a plane from Las Vegas to Philadelphia with her husband, and she decided it was high (geddit?) time to let him know he was due to become a dad.

After doing the usual announcements about flight time and weather, the American Airlines pilot on Lisa and Eric's plane told the passengers it was "time to have a little fun."

Calling out Eric's seat number and name, he then explained what was going on.

"Well Eric although you didn’t strike it rich here in Las Vegas you did hit the jackpot. Congratulations, you’re about to be a dad!"

How sweet?! And the moment Eric starts to cry just before the video ends is truly gorgeous.

Lisa's video has already racked up 35,000 views on Facebook, and she says she's hoping to track down some of the plane crew again to thank them properly.

Watch it in full here:

Here's a MUST WATCH! A few weeks ago, my husband Eric Sadiwnyk got quite the surprise on our returning flight from Las…

Stephanie Davis seems to already be well in with Jeremy's family.

The pair have been together non-stop since their stint on CBB, and now they are in Dublin.

Jeremy brought Steph to his hometown for V-Day where he introduced her to his family, and Steph seemed pretty overly chuffed about it.

She wrote on Twitter, "On way to Dublin with me new amazing perfect imperfect family. Buzzing!" and added a whole load of emojis.

There seems to be no stopping these two! And let's be honest, who would have guessed they'd stick together after the show.

If you've even watched an All Blacks rugby game, you'll know of the 'haka,' a traditional Maori war dance.

The routine of aggressive chanting is often associated with power and challenge, but New Zealanders also view the haka as something to mark a bond and to welcome a guest into the family.

Benjamin and Aaliyah Armstrong were treated to one such haka at their recent wedding, when their best man, male guests (and even a bridesmaid or two) surprised them with the routine.

The moment Aaliyah bursts into tears is so special – but you'll notice she soon dusts herself off and joins in.

Aaliyah and Benjamin's video has already gone viral, and has been shared all over the world. watch it and you'll soon see why.

Christmas dinner is one of those joyous and rare occasions where your whole family come together to eat a good bit of grub. 

And as wonderful as that sounds, there will always be a few things that happen each and every year that makes us roll our eyes up to baby Jesus and sigh with embarrassment/frustration/anger/all three. 

As bad (and funny) as these things are, you really wouldn't have it any other way (kinda): 

1. Your teen sister will not stop texting under the dinner table.

And as much as that annoys you (she's SO rude), that was you only five years ago. Ah, how times change.

 

2. Your aunty will sneak in a few too many glasses of red wine.

And start talking absolute nonsense to you. 

 

3. Then said glass of red wine will be spilled all over the dinner table and white table cloth.

*Queue evil stares from your mother*

 

4. If you're single…

You'll be asked if you have a boyfriend a million and one times.

 

5. But if you're taken…

It'll be, 'when's the wedding?!'.

 

6. And if you're married…

'WHERE'S THE BABY?'.

 

7. When the dinner is over there's the argument about who will make the tea.

You're just too full to even stand up.

 

8. But then your mam brings over dessert.

Boozy Christmas trifle and even boozier Christmas pudding. Yay!

 

9. And after that, there's the argument about who will clean away the dishes.

LEG IT. 

 

10. But when all is said and done, you wouldn't have Christmas any other way.

Because Christmas at home is the best feeling in the world.

It's almost Christmas, which means it's time for your Facebook timeline to start filling up with surprise homecoming videos.

We've seen everything from people hiding in cardboard boxes to organising airport flashmobs – but this latest video is simple in its perfection.

Sit on the couch and wait until your mam walks in – John McAleenan from Rostrevor, Co. Down had the right idea when he flew home from New York to surprise his family.

Probably one of the best things I've ever done, so glad to be home after a year x #christmassurprise

Posted by John McAleenan on Saturday, 12 December 2015

It "had to be done" said John of the sweet video, which has racked up 23,000 views since it was posted over the weekend.

His mammy's reaction is oh-so adorable, and we'll just say this – have the tissues at the ready.

Happy Christmas!

Australian MP Andrew Leigh sent out his annual family Christmas card this year, but one member of his brood was having none of it.

The Canberra-based politician had his festive greeting gatecrashed somewhat by his youngest son, who flat-out refused to smile for the snap.

Just by looking at this photo we can guess exactly what went one – 25 failed attempts to get the little fella to smile, followed by a 'Fine! Well we'll take the photo without you then' which Andrew and his wife actually decided to follow through on.

The Christmas card has gone viral since it was sent around this week – we're sure Andrew's only delighted with the increase in public popularity.

But we all know it's his toddler son who's the true hero. Meme waiting to happen.

If you're in a long-term relationship you're likely sick to death of people asking when you plan on getting married/having kids, but spare a thought for the poor Danes.

Denmark is known for its low birth rate, so anyone of child-bearing age is probably getting hounded on a daily basis to start a family.

Now one travel company has come up with a solution for the country's aging population issues… kinda.

A new ad, aimed at older parents who are just gagging for a grandchild, suggests they pay for their child to go on an "active holiday," with the hope they'll spend lots of time between the sheets.

The logic? People are more likely to have sex on a sunny holiday.

Plus, couples who break a sweat together are apparently proven to have more sex too.

"You were there when your son learned how to walk, but when it comes to making grandchildren it might be a little awkward to help out," the ad says.

"Maybe it's time to get a little proactive."

Would-be grandparents can purchase a Spies Travel holiday for their child – be they single or attached – in the hope that they'll be inspired to get down and dirty. 

The Do It For Mom campaign is a follow on from the Do It For Denmark campaign in 2014, which offered an "ovulation discount" to any couples planning a romantic city break.

An ovulation discount? We could get on board with that.
