Apart from being an amazing singer and best friends with Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift is also just an ordinary woman just like the rest of us. Her music has always been relatable and many of us grew up as she did, so she was like the big sister we never met. 

In a recent interview with Elle, she has done it again and spoken up about the difficulty of heartache. She began speaking about her 1989 song Clean and said "so it shows you where I ended up mentally." She then went on to open up about her own experience of heartbreak and we can completely relate. 

"You know how it is when you're going through heartbreak. A heartbroken person is unlike any other person. Their time moves at a completely different pace than ours," she said.

She then went on to admit: "It's this mental, physical, emotional ache and feeling so conflicted. Nothing distracts you from it. Then time passes, and the more you live your life and create new habits, you get used to not having a text message every morning saying, "Hello, beautiful. Good morning."

The singer then went on to talk about getting used to new habits and letting go of the old ones. 

"You get used to not calling someone at night to tell them how your day was. You replace these old habits with new habits, like texting your friends in a group chat all day and planning fun dinner parties and going out on adventures with your girlfriends, and then all of a sudden one day you're in London and you realise you've been in the same place as your ex for two weeks and you're fine. And you hope he's fine," she said.

"The first thought that came to my mind was, 'I'm finally clean.'"

Could the London reference mean Taylor was referring to her break-up with Harry Styles?

No matter who it was about, we will have this song on repeat tonight. Broken hearts do heal. 

We love you TayTay!

We know she's famous and everything, but we hardly expected her to get asked for an autograph while seeing a gynaecologist. 

Demi opened up about the experience on a New Zealand radio station ZM.

If that wasn't bad enough, it happened in the middle of the examination…

She said: "There have been so many uncomfortable and actually violating moments when like, I've been at the gynaecologist and the doctor's like, 'Can I have an autograph for my daughter?"

"I'm like, 'f**k you! What the hell is wrong with you?'", she continued.

Demi shared more, er, detailed, stories: "Or I'll get lasered or whatever and someone will be like, 'My such and such is a huge fan,' and it's like, 'Great, you can now tell them you've seen my vagina. Like the whole thing!'"

Awks…

We guess that's one advantage of not being a celebrity.

You’ve bagged the interview for the job of your dreams. Now all you have to do is nail it. Easy, right? Not for everyone.

If you find it difficult to get yourself across the way you want, here are some tips that might help you:

If you feel comfortable, you’ll act comfortable
We all want to look the part for an interview. But if heels and a trouser suit just aren’t you, you won’t feel at ease. Wear something smart and comfy – here are some perfect ideas for you! 

Prepare but don’t overthink
There’s a difference between preparing for an interview and overthinking an interview. If you have bagged the interview, you already have the qualification necessary for the job. Now, all you have to do is research the company and the role and come up with why you are the best person for the job. When it’s downtime, don’t think about the interview, you’ll get nervous and flustered and by the time D-day comes, you'll be a wreck. 

Slow and steady wins the race
You don’t have to go in there and talk as fast as you can. That’s what a nervous person does You’re not nervous, remember? Take things steady and slowly and think things through before answering. If you are someone who gets that shaky, dry voice when you’re nervous, ask for a glass of water you can sip when you need to.

Be yourself
If we’ve heard it once, we’ve heard it a thousand times. But there’s a reason for that! Don’t be afraid to show off your personality. Employers are much more likely to remember you if you show who you are rather than a stiff, question-answering robot.

It would appear that Selena Gomez is well and truly sick of people mentioning her ex Justin Bieber in relation to her and her music. 

The singer appeared on a pre-AMA red carpet session and talked about her new album, and the influences that created those. Selena has not shied away from admitting that a lot of her new album is inspired by her famous ex, because of course it would be!

However, the problems began when the reporter involved shared a photo of herself and Selena on Instagram and captioned: “Asking Selena about her new single & the famous ex she wrote it about…”

According to Oceans Up, the singer was furious about the caption, and left a comment reading: “Hate the caption … I know, you could've said my new single but ok.”

Things got even more heated when an Instagram user commented saying that Selena was only famous because if Justin, to which she flipped altogether: “A little hypocritical if you ask me. I have been working since I was 7 years old. And I am allowed as an artist to share my heart and hard work. Playing for you. Have a great day love!

The reporter later altered her caption due to the attention it was garnering from angry Selectors and Selena seems to have deleted her comments. 

How dramatic a day on Instagram can be for Selena Gomez!

Jaden and Willow Smith recently did an interview for The New York Times and we have to say…we're totally confused. 

Here are favourite quotes from the interview, or perhaps from ever. 

We've learnt so much. 

1. Jaden: “There’s a theoretical physicist inside all of our minds, and you can talk and talk, but it’s living”

2. Jaden on what he’s currently reading: “The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life and ancient texts; things that can’t be pre-dated.”

3. Willow: “And the feeling of being like, this is a fragment of a holographic reality that a higher consciousness made.”

4. Willow: “And then you think about what you think, which is very dangerous”

5. Jaden: “That’s another thing: What’s your job, what’s your career? Nah, I am. I’m going to imprint myself on everything in this world”

6. Willow: “There’s no novels that I like to read so I write my own novels, and then I read them again, and it’s the best thing”

7. On babies:
Jaden: It’s prana energy because they still breath through their stomach. They remember. Babies remember”
Willow: “When they’re in the stomach, they’re so aware, putting all their bones together, putting all their ligaments together. But they’re shocked by this harsh world”
Jaden: “By the chemicals and things”

8. Jaden: "Because your mind has a duality to it…When you think about an apple, you also think about the opposite of an apple"

9. Jaden: "You never learn anything in school. Think about how many car accidents happen every day. Driver’s ed? What’s up? I still haven’t been to driver’s ed because if everybody I know has been in an accident, I can’t see how driver’s ed is really helping them out"

10. Jaden: "I have a goal to be just the most craziest person of all time"

We all knew our beloved Jennifer Lawrence was a prankster – but this is just gross!

Her Hunger Games co-star, Liam Hemsworth, appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s show and described kissing Jennifer as ‘uncomfortable’. 

Why would kissing one of the world’s most beautiful women be uncomfortable?! 

Well, because it’s Jennifer so she used to eat tuna and garlic before the kissing scene, tell Liam and inform him she wasn’t going to brush her teeth – we LOVE it. It’s sick, but we love it. 

Watch the hilarious interview below.

We really, really think that Harry Styles and Taylor Swift need to get back together, like now.

Taylor spoke recently about the reason they decided to give up on their relationship, saying that other people’s involvement was to blame.

In a recent interview, Harry was asked how he feels when Taylor writes songs about him, replying: “We always say that we write from personal experience and I think that everyone does. So, it would be hypocritical of us to be like, ‘Oh you can’t write songs’. And she’s really good. They’re good songs. So I’m lucky in that sense.”

Hear that Taylor? Not only has Harry bought and listened to 1989 – he’s given it his seal of approval!

Now come on guys, kiss already!
