Look, we're as big a fan of Carpool Karaoke as the next person… unless that person is willing to kidnap James Corden in order to recreate the segment, that is.

And then we're officially out.

The Late Late Show's super-popular music segment has gained a global following, and it looks like some people will do anything – even break the law – for their 15 minutes with the king of the carpool.

Speaking to The Wrap, the 37-year-old British star explained that while at home in London, he was accosted by a group of teenagers who forced him to take part in their own British version of the segment.

"I was crossing the street in London a few weeks ago and there were these four kids," he explained. "They were like 18, 19. They sort of forced me to get in the car."

Having clearly ignored everything he was taught about stranger danger as a child, James went with it, and ended up having an impromptu Carpool Karaoke session with a group of randomers.

"They all had their camera phones out and we were just singing along to the radio. I was like, 'Am I being kidnapped?" he recalled.

Not exactly James, but not far off.

A renewed appeal for vigilance has been issued to Tipperary and north Cork residents following the confirmation of yet another case of measles in the region.

Addressing the outbreak, which came to public attention in May, public health consultant Dr Kevin Kelleher reminded Morning Ireland listeners that specific steps should be taken if you suspect you or someone you know has been infected with measles.

According to Dr. Kelleher, symptoms – which include high fever, runny nose, cough, red eyes and a red rash – should not be ignored, with those exhibiting signs of the condition advised to stay at home, contact their GP and avoid visitors.

With 38 confirmed cases since the outbreak earlier this year, Dr. Kelleher explained: "This case is still part of the whole group of cases that we’ve been speaking about for the last two or three months and it just shows how the trend can go on."

Reminding the public that measles is 'quite infectious', Dr. Kelleher explained: "It does just need a bit of contact like being in the same place as someone for a brief period of time."

In addition to advising Munster residents of the latest case, Dr.Kelleher explained that some confirmed cases were as a result of being imported into the country and not specifically connected to the outbreak.

"The cases we’re talking about have come about as a result of people travelling to parts of Europe and coming back with measles as a result," he explained.

"Your measles vaccine is as important as having your passport ready," he explained. "Because there are parts of Europe where people often go on holiday where measles is still endemic."

According to the HSE, vaccination is the best method of prevention.

Ah Victoria, we've idolised her since the days of the point and pout.

Admittedly, she went through a particularly dodgy period in the mid noughties when bodycon dresses and platinum bobs were the height of schtyle, but ever since establishing herself as a revered fashion designer, Victoria Beckham has brought her A-game 

And while her wardrobe is something most of us can only dream of owning, it looks like channelling our inner VB may actually be a lot easier than any of us thought.

Taking to Twitter to promote her new line with Estee Lauder, Vic talks fans through her admirably short make-up routine, and the public can't get enough.

"I've been waiting for a Victoria Beckham make up collab forever!" wrote one while another gushed: "Major!! Super excited for this collection. And the packaging looks great! Bring it!"

We could watch this over and over.

If classic romcoms are to be believed, women fall to pieces after a break-up and men pick themselves up and dust themselves off.

According to the movies, women drown their sorrows in gin and plot their revenge while men take it on the chin and simply make a play for the next girl.

But anyone who has endured the ups and downs of a break-up will know that this scenario is about as authentic as our tan – not at all, in other words.

And this is precisely why social media is falling all over itself today.

Reminding the public that both sexes are guilty of a little OTT regret, one Twitter user shared a screenshot of her friend's online banking app, and highlighted the lengths her pal's ex would go to for attention.
 

"Becca blocked her ex off everything and he transferred 4p into her bank with the reference 'text me please'.'" Gabriella wrote in a post which did the rounds online today before being swiftly deleted.

The tweet was, however, re-tweeted numerous times as people used this poor guy's very desperate plea as a reminder that neither gender is immune to the post-break-up madness.

4p, though? Couldn't have even swung for the price of a drink, no?!

While the rest of us have our fingers crossed for another few weeks of sunshine and beer gardens, the good folk behind one of Ireland's most iconic department stores have decided that it's officially time to turn our backs on summer, and usher in the yuletide.

Unveiling its renowned Christmas Market in its Dublin, Cork and Limerick branches this Thursday, Brown Thomas have reminded us that there's only a mere – wait for it – four months and one week until the big day.

We know, we know. How disorganised do you feel right now?!

From Christmas trees and decorations to gift ideas and general seasonal merriment, the dedicated festive spaces in the store's three branches will be your one-stop-shop for all things Christmas-related.

As long as you don't mind having to take off your sunnies before venturing in, that is.

And for those people who have everything gift-wrapped by October? Go wild!

Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans will likely remember an episode where Kim got an X-ray to prove – once and for all – that her world-famous bum comes down to nothing more than good genes.

And while many would argue that that should have been enough to silence cynics, it clearly wasn't as the mum-of-two is still regularly plagued by rumours that she's had cosmetic surgery on her derriére.

Addressing the rumours during a recent live stream on her website, Kim ventured a guess as to why the implant rumour has yet to fall by the wayside.
 

Kim, who suffers from psoriasis, treats the skin condition with cortisone injections, and despite being told they there was little chance she would develop an indent in her bum as a result of the injections, that's exactly what happened.

"One of my neighbours was a dermatologist at Cedars," 35-year-old Kim tells fans online. ”I go in there and he’s like, ‘There’s a one in a billion chance that you will get a huge indent in your butt.’ Of course I get a huge indent on my butt."

Aware that this likely added to speculation, Kim explained: “There is a picture of me in Miami wearing an electric blue dress, and another picture of me walking down Robertson."

"You see the indent. And I think that’s when the rumours started, ‘She’s had implants’." Kim surmises.

Insistent that the indent is the result of injections recieved solely to treat psoriasis, Kim assures fans: "Every few years I get a cortisone shot. That’s a little unknown fact of me."

And there you have it.

Teen Mom 3 star, Mackenzie McKee, welcomed a baby boy yesterday, but it sounds like the reality star endured considerable stress in the run-up to her child's birth this week.

Taking to social media to ask the public for their prayers and support as her daughter prepared for labour, Mackenzie's mother, Angie Douthit, appeared particularly anxious.

Sharing a photo of her 21-year-old daughter and her husband on Facebook, Angie wrote: "Prayer alert: Mackenzie is having a c section n a few minutes." (sic)

"She is type 1 diabetic and the babies heart rate is high. He will be in the NICU for a while even though he weighs over 9 pounds, (according to ultrasound).," she continued.

Explaining that her daughter would welcome support, Angie added: "Mic is very nervous and scared. Please pray."

Thankfully, just an hour later Angie shared the news the family were hoping for, writing: "He's here!!! 10 pounds 1 ounce. I haven't seen him yet, but they r ok for now! Praise God!" (sic)

"Baby is in NICU with a navel IV and a tube for breathing," Angie told followers concerned for Mackenzie and her child's condition. "He'll be there for a few days. Please keep praying."

Social media users have responded in their droves and wasted no time wishing the family the best as they navigate the next few days.

Mackenzie, who is also mum to four-year-old Gannon and two-year-old Jaxie, has named her newborn son Broncs, and we are wishing her all the very best.

10 years ago, Katie Ledecky was just nine years of age, and as a keen swimmer, was a massive fan of Michael Phelps.

Over the course of the past decade, Katie has carved an incredibly successful career for herself in the world of swimming, and as a six-time Olympic medalist, can now officially count herself among her hero's peers.

And it was this incredible progression which made a photo of a clearly excited Katie meeting Michael back in 2006 all the more poignant in the eyes of the public.

Acknowledging people's interest in the photograph, the US teammates decided to recreate the image…with a twist.

Instead of maintaining the same roles, Michael paid tribute to Katie's progress and incredible achievements since their first meeting, and was photographed asking for her autograph this time around.

Sharing the photo on their Twitter page, USA Swimming wrote: "Vice-Versa: @katieledecky @MichaelPhelps re-create famous photo with opposite roles #riotoday #SwimUnited."

Twitter users were all over the adorable twist on the throwback snap and wasted no time sharing their thoughts on the upload.

"I love this pic! It shows dreams can come true! Michael, you are truly an inspiration! Thank you!" wrote one while another added: "Love this! Thanks for inspiring young swimmers!"

Retweeting the reverse snap on their page, The Today Show wrote: "A lot can change in 10 years! @katieledecky and 'MichaelPhelps in 2006 and today in Rio!"

"What an inspiration! Katie is well on her way to joining Phelps on the Mount Rushmore of swimming. Incredible!" replied a member of the public.

That's a framer.

Gaining the approval of your other half's parents isn't necessarily required, but let's face it, it does make life a whole lot easier if you don't have in-law issues to tend with on a daily basis.

Unfortunately for Kendall Jenner, it sounds like she's got her work cut out for her if she wants to win over her new boyfriend's uber-protective stepmother.

With speculation rife that Kendall and A$AP Rocky are more than just friends, the rapper's stepmum has decided to weigh in on the rumours, and she's none too happy right now.

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail Online, 38-year-old Kari said: "I’ve heard all about him dating Kendall and I don’t like it."

Kari didn't hold back when offering her assessment of the reality television family, adding: "Everything I hear about the Kardashians makes me think they are a bad family for Rakim to be involved with."

In the court of public opinion, men who become involved with the Kardashian/ Jenner family often fall victim to the media machine, and it sounds like Kari is particularly conscious of this.

"I don’t want him being dragged into that circus, he is too good for that and can do so much better," she explained.

A$AP Rocky and Kendall have been spotted on numerous dates in recent weeks – something which Kari hopes will come to an end soon.

"They are just not the kind of people I’d like to see him hanging around with," she admitted.

We wonder what Kris Jenner will have to say about that one.

When it comes to reality television, it's no secret that the Kardashian family currently have the market cornered.

And while the family's show – and the numerous spin-offs it has had over the years – are often considered a guilty pleasure by the viewing public, that hasn't stopped them tuning in in their millions every week…until now, that is.

While countless are continuously fascinated by the world-famous family's most elusive member, Rob, it seems they're not quite ready for his solo endeavour.

And with the official sneak peek for his reality show –  featuring fiancée Blac Chyna – dropping yesterday, the public took to Twitter in their droves to slam the programme.

Commenting on the trailer which shows the tension which exists within Rob and Chyna's relationship, one Twitter user wrote: "This whole show is just wrong!"

"What's with the violence and drama: if he's texting someone else… Break up!"

"All aboard for the train wreck!" wrote another while someone else commented: "Yup. This teaser is proof that civilization is doomed."

"Seriously? Who the f**k cares about these two a-holes?" questioned yet another.

Luckily for Rob and Chyna, not everyone will feel the need to switch over once it becomes a TV regular.

Some members of the public know that a dose of reality TV when you have the Sunday Night Fear is the only thing for you.

We're with her on that one.

Kendall Jenner has, unfortunately, learned the hard way that her global profile can have a devastating effect on her sense of personal space and security following a terrifying incident at her Hollywood home last night.

Returning to the multi-million dollar mansion which she only recently bought, the runway sensation and reality TV star was confronted by an individual who had been waiting on the property.

According to TMZ, as 20-year-old Kendall approached the gates of her home she saw an individual waiting in her driveway, and as she made her way towards her house, he began to follow her.

It is understood that Kendall immediately contacted the police and remained in her car until authorities arrived and arrested the individual.

Police sources have confirmed that there was a warrant out for the individual's arrest before being arrested for stalking last night.

We can't even imagine how terrified she must have been.

After two and half years together, Michelle Dockery, who is best known for her role as Lady Mary in Downton Abbey, lost her fiancé, John Dineen, to cancer.

Having been introduced by a mutual friend in May 2013, the couple began dating before becoming engaged on Valentine's Day 2015.

And while the public and press speculated about the upcoming wedding, only a select few knew that John had been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer to which he eventually succumbed last December at just 34 years of age.

Refusing to discuss her fiance's death in any great detail, Michelle does, however, pay tribute to the individuals who helped her navigate the months which followed his passing.

Speaking to The Telegraph, Michelle credited loved ones for their support, saying: "No one I would name because I am very private about my private life. But friends and family see you through the most difficult times."

Giving an insight into her latest role – a petty thief in US drama Good Behavior – Michelle admits that the opening came at the perfect time as it gave her something to focus on after John's death.

"It was very fortunate for me that this came along at the right time," she explained while admitting that she considers acting 'a release'.

On the day of his funeral, Michelle described John as "my friend, my hero, my king, my everything" before singing The Folks on the Hill – John's favourite song.
