Former One Direction member, Louis Tomlinson, has been widely lauded for his performance on last weekend's X Factor finale.

Just days after his mother's passing, the singer took to the stage at one of the biggest television events of the year, and did an incredibly job.

And while she was full of praise for Louis, last year's X Factor winner, Louisa Johnson, insists she wouldn't have been able to do the same had she been in the same situation.

"I thought he was so brave. I don’t think I could have actually done that," she told The Sun newspaper.

"I really really felt for him and looked up to him for that," she continued.

The singer, who became the youngest ever winner of the long-running singing contest following her victory last year, insists Louis' appearance deserves the utmost respect.

"Losing someone is such a hard thing in itself and to then go on a show in front of millions of people is very hard anyway and I think he handled it so well."

Louis' mother, Johannah, was just 43-years-old when she lost her six-month battle with leukaemia last week.

As the Christmas break is looming, it's safe to say many of us will be dropping ourselves on the couch to binge-watch whatever Netflix has in store for us over the holidays.

And for people who feel bad about the guilty pleasure or think it's a waste of time, take a step back because it turns out binge-watching TV is actually good for you.

Neuroscientist Vanessa Hill spoke to Harper's Bazaar about the benefits of sitting in front of the TV for a couple of hours.

"We all need some rest and relaxation from time to time and it's super important we acknowledge that – it's actually beneficial for our mental health to be inactive for a couple of hours a week.

"Watching movies and television can have some really surprising benefits. Yes, at face-value, they are entertaining, but they also have significant psychological and physiological benefits and we should take advantage of them.

"It allows us to switch our brain off from pressures, better equipping us to deal with our daily stressors when we return to the hustle and bustle of daily life," she says.

"Research shows we find the Christmas period a particularly stressful time of year, from busy work schedules, to financial pressures, social engagements – R&R has never been so important."

So there you have it ladies – you know where we'll be this Christmas.

When we heard Luke Crodden didn't meet Scarlett Moffatt at the airport after she was crowned Queen of the Jungle in this year's I'm a  Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here, we were far from impressed. but it turns out there was more to the decision than meets the eye.

While being interviewed on her homecoming by OK! Magazine, the couple revealed the circumstances surrounding their reunion, and it seems the couple's pet dog, Bonnie, meant he was unable to make the tearful reunion in the Arrivals hall.

Explaining why he didn't show up, Luke said: "Because I had our dog Bonnie and I had so much stuff to take over to her parents."

But once they did finally find themselves in the same location, Luke struggled to hide his emotions, saying: "I basically kicked the door through to get to her. I ran into the sitting room, grabbed hold of her and didn’t let go for the rest of the night."

Admitting he cried after seeing Scarlett in person for the first time in almost a month, he added: “I was going to say no I wasn’t, but aye, I was.”

Chiming in, the Gogglebox star revealed there was a pair of them in it, saying: "Yeah, we couldn’t stop crying when we were reunited. It’s the longest we’ve ever been apart. Never, ever again."

Celebrating his girlfriend's triumphant return, Luke went all out on the food front, and stocked up on Scarlett's favourites.

"When I got home me and Luke ordered two pixies, chips, doner meat, loads of garlic sauce and chilli," Scarlett said. "And Luke bought us some bourbon biscuits, custard creams, chocolate digestives and Hobnobs."

“He was my Prince Charming, coming round with a bag of biscuits," she added.

Sounds like our kind of lad.

Chat show hosts, in recent years, have been knocking it out of the park when it comes to their ability to create hype around particular segments of their programme.

Carpool Karaoke, Celebrities Read Mean Tweets, Drop the Mic and The Big Red Chair have, at times, surpassed the show's main interviews, so it's no real surprise that some of them are set to get their own spin-off series.

And the latest one to do so is Graham Norton's Big Red Chair. (Hurrah!)

Hosted by Graham himself, the much-loved chat show host will recall his favourite stories (there have been more than 500 so far!) before being reintroduced to the people who dared share their most embarrassing stories on national television.

Hitting our screens on Jan 6, we'll definitely be tuning in for this one.

She may have arrived in the jungle looking pretty high-maintenance, but behind Scarlett Moffatt's nails, tan and hair extensions, it sounds like she was only dying to go au naturel.

After being crowned the Queen of the Jungle, the Gogglebox star opened up about her hygiene routine while Down Under, and it doesn't exactly tally with the gal who made a spray tan her priority before taking her place on I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, the reality star revealed that over the course of three weeks, she showered – wait for it – just four times.

Reflecting on her camp mate Sam Quek's shower routine, Scarlett said: "We did it together, so four! And I had a couple of dips in the creek."

Justifying her decision to avoid the shower, Scarlett joked: "It's not smell-o-vision, is it?"

"I fully embraced being feral. My hair still smells of campfire. I've tried washing it out and it just takes forever." the 26-year-old admitted.

And while the rest of us would just keep trying on that front, it sounds like Scarlett's mum, who rose to fame alongside her daughter on Gogglebox, has other ideas.

"My mam told me to Febreeze my hair. I said: 'I'm not Febreezing my hair!'" Scarlett exclaimed.

We're with her on that one, Betty.

Remember that time you disrespected a culture's beliefs and then boasted about it on television?

Yeah us neither, but that's because we're not Jennifer Lawrence.

After appearing on The Graham Norton Show last week, the Oscar-winner has come in for serious criticism on social media, and it's not hard to see why.

 

While reflecting on the filming of Passengers in Hawaii, Jennifer revealed that she had used sacred stones to 'scratch her butt'… much to the clear surprise of her fellow guests.

"We were filming in Hawaii and there were sacred rocks," she began. "And they were, I don't know, ancestors, who knows? They were sacred and you're not supposed to sit on them because you're not suppose to expose your genitalia to them."

"I, however, was in a wetsuit for this whole shoot, and oh my God they were so good for butt-itching," she continued.

 

"And one rock that I was butt-scratching ending up coming loose and there was a giant boulder and it rolled down this mountain and almost killed our sound guy. And all the Hawaiins were like 'Its the curse!' and I was like 'I'm your curse.'"

Taking to Twitter to share their disgust with the star's story, members of the public had their say.

 

 

 

 

 

Good one, Jennifer.

Following on from the controversy which stemmed from Bernardo Bertolucci's admission that Last Tango in Paris actress, Maria Schneider, was unaware of his and Marlon Brando's intentions prior to the filming of a rape scene, a television producer has spoken out about the prevalence of these scenes in submitted scripts.

While discussing his selection process for the television version of The Exorcist with Variety Magazine, Jeremy Slater admitted he was stunned by scriptwriters' reliance on rape scenes.

Giving an insight into his work on the adaptation, he said: "One of my hard-and-fast rules when reading spec scripts was, the second that there was a rape that was used for shock value and that didn’t have any sort of narrative purpose, I threw the script aside."

Confirming that the approach was by no means rare, he added: "And I was shocked by the number that had that."

Shining a light on the regularity with which scriptwriters resort to rape scenes without any narrative purpose, Jeremy revealed that approximately 20 per cent of submissions contained at least one.

"I would say out of those 200 scripts, there were probably 30 or 40 of them that opened with a rape or had a pretty savage rape at some point."

They may have traded a kiss during their time on Beauty School Dropouts, but it seems there's no love lost between Jeremy McConnell and Scarlett Moffatt if the Dubliner's recent comments are anything to go by.

Making his feelings for the Gogglebox star clear while speaking to Heatworld, he admitted that he doesn't share the same love for Scarlett as the rest of us.

"I hate her. I just think she's manipulative," said the former Celebrity Big Brother contestant. "I don't think she's a genuine person."

While Scarlett has been lauded by I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here viewers for her down-to-earth attitude, it sounds like Jeremy was having none of it.

"I think she knows how to play certain situations," he argued. "If you were there for six weeks in the jungle, you'd be found out. But luckily she's playing a very clever game."

Despite Jeremy's critique of her performance in the Aussie jungle, Scarlett went on to be crowned winner – something Jeremy said he couldn't 'give a sh*t' about.

Jeez Jeremy, how dya really feel?

Let's be honest – one of the biggest moments in X Factor history was the duet between Beyoncé and Alexandra Burke back in 2008.

Between Bey's vocals and Alexandra's hilarious bawl-face, it was definitely a moment to remember…. but for all the wrong reasons for the lads from JLS.

According to a recent interview, the act, which went head to head against Alexandra before she was ultimately crowed the winner, were furious that their fellow contetant was paired with an international superstar in the finale.

Reflecting on the atmosphere backstage at the time, Aston Merrygold said: "I was baffled. I was so baffled. At the time, I was 19 and I was absolutely fuming – behind closed doors I was fuming. Like, Beyoncé – are you kidding?!"

Speaking on BUILD Series LDN, he continued: "I was fuming. Listen, Westlife were amazing at the time and we had one of the biggest songs ever, but we were like, ‘How’s she got Beyoncé?"

“No disrespect to Westlife at all, but we were like, ‘Why didn’t we get Beyoncé?’" he admitted.

Why aren't we surprised?!

Christmas ads are big business, and every year we look forward to the latest batch of tearjerkers.

Generally following a tried and tested formula, advertisers bring us on a journey which ultimately sees us reaching for a box of tissues before phoning friends and family to profess our love.

And while Polish online auction website, Allegro, have done much the same, it looks like their decision to drop the F-bomb in the middle of the touching commercial has done much to boost its popularity online.

Documenting an elderly man's progress with the English language, the ad shows him practicing the language by labelling household items and mimicking 'not before the watershed' lines he hears on television.

So, when he is finally given the opportunity to practice the language on family members, it's no real surprise that YouTubers feared he'd ruin the precious moment by effing and blinding all over the place,

"Oh god, i thought he was going to say "i am going to f*cking kill you" at the end," wrote one.

"Was expecting him in the end to go "I gonna f*cking kill you"," added another.

Ah lads, as if they'd end it like that…

An insider told TMZ: "They're on solid ground since Dream's birth and want to get married next year.

"Rob wants to live with Chyna and spend every day with Dream. He's making a big effort to get along with Chyna.

Let's be honest, a TV wedding is nothing new to the Kardashians – Kim broadcast her wedding to Kris Humphries AND Kanye over the years, and her sister Khloe also had a TV wedding when she married Lamar Odom.

But will this one be just as extravagant? We'll have to wait and see.

There's one in every family – the sibling who will not shell out for their own Netflix account, and instead makes use of other people's log-in details on the sly.

If you've been inundated with recommendations which bear no resemblance to your own TV preferences, you've likely fallen foul to a sibling who desperately needs a Netflix Gift Card in their Christmas stocking.

Available in three pre-paid amounts – €15, €25, €50 – the Netflix Gift Card can be added to an existing account or used to open a new one, so you can say goodbye to scrounging siblings for good in the new year.

The card, which could herald the dawn of more peaceful family relations, can be used with any viewing plan, so why not treat yourself to a Netflix account exclusive to you… by springing for a gift card exclusive to your sibling?!

Everyone's a winner!
