We could have sworn that Geordie Shore's Gary Beadle had already been inked at some stage, but it turns out we – and thousands others – were wrong.

Unlike his co-star Aaron Chalmers, Gary was totally tat-free… until now, that is.

Taking to Twitter to share the moment with his fans, the reality TV star gave an insight into his pre-tat process before eventually unveiling the finished creation to millions.

Eager to find out how large the tat was likely to be, one of Gary's followers asked: "You not getting the tiniest tattoo are ya?! Hope you doing it proper for your first."

Reassuring her that his 'go big or go home' attitude extended to the tattoo parlour, Gary insisted: "No, believe me, I've gone for it."

And he wasn't lying.

After three hours in the chair, the 28-year-old Geordie shared a snap of the inking, and it's not at all what we expected.

Explaining that it's a tribute to his mother, Gaz wrote: "Ok so today this happened. Thank you @Mattwebbtattoo mams favourite flower, some amazing colour, hand piece!"

But, unfortunately for Gary, not everyone was impressed by the inking, with one remarking: "Jesus, why wouldn't you go where @AaronCGShore goes that's not great at all!"

Leaping to his co-star's defence, Aaron replied to the comment, "Are you mad? That's a f*cking sick tat."

Gary's followers were having none of Aaron though, with another Twitter user adding: "It looks terrible m8. On ur hand no coverin it, and a flower wat man likes flowers on their hand lol."

Jeez guys, how do you really feel?!

Romances which blossom on the set of reality television programmes don't tend to have the best track record.

From Geordie Shore to TOWIE, when it comes to matters of the heart, reality stars don't seem to have the best luck.

However, it sounds like Lewis Bloor is determined to sidestep that curse by making a go of things with Geordie Shore's Marnie Simpson whom he met on Celebrity Big Brother this summer.

Appearing on Loose Women today, the reality star was, unsurprisingly, grilled about his new romance, and it sounds like it may just be the real thing.

"This is a new feeling for me and I feel a bit shy talking about it," he admitted. "I understand how people will look at it, it is very crazy but yeah she is great and I can't wait to see her."

"I do have a five-year plan and I'd love to be with Marnie at the end of it," he told the audience. "If I am with Marnie in five years time, I will be surprised if she doesn’t have a ring on her finger."

Determined for viewers to realise the depth of their relationship, Lewis reminded the public that they were inseparable while living in the house together.

"Being without Marnie is odd, even though you only saw a little bit, I figured it out we spent over 550 hours together in 23 days. It's the world's longest first date!"

Confirming that they are an official couple, Lewis dismissed the notion that their relationship might be moving too fast, saying: "I feel like in life someone who you’ve known for five weeks might have better intentions than someone you have known for five years."

"Time is a relative thing," he insisted. "We spent every waking minute together. If you don't know you've got feelings for someone in that time then you probably don't."

Does this mean we might one day see a Geordie/ TOWIE wedding?! What a time to be alive.

Anyone with even a passing knowledge of Geordie Shore will know that Gary and Charlotte's on again / off again relationship did much to raise the ratings of the MTV reality show.

As a result, it's no surprise that many thought Charlotte might have had a hand in Gary's decision to call time on his two-year relationship with Lillie Lexie Gregg whom he met while filming Ex on the Beach.

But, according to Lillie, Charlotte had nothing to do with Gary's choice to end their romance.

Speaking to the Mirror Online, Lillie admitted that her boyfriend's commitment to the reality TV show was the reason they decided to part ways.

"Charlotte has nothing to do with it. Basically, he [Gary] was put in a situation where he was given the option to choose between me and Geordie Shore."

Reflecting on the ultimatum which was issued to her ex, Lillie explained: "He was told he would have to leave the show that day if he picked me. It was a daunting decision for him because that’s his bread and butter."

Sounding remarkably understanding, Lillie, who has recently been publicly humiliated by boyfriend Stephen Bear, acknowledged: "The show is all he’s ever known." 

"It was the hardest decision of his life but ultimately he picked Geordie Shore," she said.

Between Gary and Bear, Lillie's definitely due some good fortune in the love department.

They may have been soul sisters on Sex and the City, but as far as the public is concerned Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall's friendship was reserved solely for the set of the HBO show.

Rumours have been swirling for years that the two actresses failed to see eye to eye while filming the groundbreaking television series and its two subsequent films, but it looks like everyone fell victim to the rumour mill.

In a move which confirmed that SJP has nothing but love for her co-star, the actress shared a photo of Kim before writing a heartfelt tribute to the actress on her 60th birthday.

"Happy birthday you beauty @kimcattrall," she wrote alongside a throwback snap yesterday.
 

"Sending love and the very best for a perfectly marvelous, joyous, healthy and adventure filled birthday year," she added.

Finishing the post which has clocked up almost 80,000 likes, Sarah signed off: "Your ol' pal, fellow mischief maker and "sister", Sj"

"This gave me feels," wrote one Instagram user while another added: "That's so sweet. I miss you 4 guys being together."

Sex and the City 3, anyone?

When it comes to our barnets, we're a fairly precious bunch.

An inch too short and there's all-out war, but then we never were, and never will be, as chill as Millie Bobby Brown.

The 12-year-old actress, who captured the imagination of millions in her role as Eleven in Stranger Things, made the whole head-shaving process look like a walk in the park.

Taking to Instagram last night, the British-born actress, who has a massive fan in Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul, uploaded footage of the moment she ditched her tumbling curls for Eleven's iconic style.

Unlike the rest of us who would mourn each and every strand, Millie happily chatted and smiled throughout the process and reminded us that some people are just inherently chill.

To the tune of Beyoncé's Pretty Hurts, the child star went from Millie to Eleven in the blink of an eye, and Instagram is all over it.

Great British Bake Off is our ultimate comfort viewing, and we love nothing more than re-run sessions when we're gripped by Sunday Night Fear.

And it sounds like Snoop Dogg is on the very same page as the rest of the viewing public.

While we wouldn't generally associate teacups and elaborate bakes with the Drop It Like It's Hot rapper, it seems we have a lot to learn about good ol' Snoop.

Speaking to the Star on Sunday, the 44-year-old revealed that he's a massive GBBO fan, and even went on to insist that the British show was one 'one of the best' on TV.

Offering his two cents into the dynamic which exists between Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry, Snoop gushed: "The guy is cool but it’s all about my home girl Mary. You know she is the boss."

While fan-girling all over the most wholesome show on the box, it seems Snoop suddenly realised his street cred was at risk, and did his best to rein himself back in.

"You know, I've been known to do a little baking in my time," he admitted before adding: "I guess you could say my speciality was brownies – just maybe not the kind Mary Berry is used to."

Oh Snoop, you're too slick for us.

It's no secret that Saira Khan and Marnie Simpson didn't exactly see eye to eye while on Celebrity Big Brother, but it doesn't look like Saira is content to leave the ill will in the house if a recent interview is anything to go by.

Appearing on The Wright Stuff, Saira, in no uncertain terms, compared Geordie Shore's Marnie to a prostitute who was fulfilling her fee by having sex on camera.

Recalling her first meeting with 24-year-old Marnie, Saira revealed: "The first thing this young lady said to me was 'Who are you going to have sex with in the house?'

While the audience gave bursts of stunned laughter, Saira questioned Marnie's attitude, saying: "Not 'Who do you fancy?' That conversation normally happens in our country on a corner with a red light… for the red light district."

Admitting that she was stunned by the reality star's intentions, Saira continued: "For me, this young lady had taken the red light, crossed the boundary into TV."

"The red light was the camera and she had got a fee, and she came with the intent of having sex. For me, that is what you call prostitution."

Defending her position, Saira admitted that this Geordie Shore-like approach is not something she understands.

"For me, for mainstream TV to have that content, call me prudish, I don't agree with it. I think it's a generational thing, I don't get it," she said.

We wonder what Marnie will make of those remarks when she gets out.

Anyone who has been watching the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother will have felt for Lillie Lexie Gregg whose boyfriend, Stephen Bear, began an in-house relationship with fellow housemate Chloe Khan.

Despite entering the house with intentions of marrying Lillie, who he met on Ex on the Beach, Stephen found himself cosying up to Chloe… and then some.

In behaviour which has resulted in countless complaints from viewers and CBB contestants, Stephen and Chloe made their feelings for each other very clear as a devastated Lillie watched from home.

And in classic Celebrity Big Brother fashion, the show's bosses gave Lillie the opportunity to enter the house and confront her boyfriend… which, of course, she did this week.

Taking to Twitter to support Gary Beadle's ex-girlfriend, former Celebrity Big Brother contestant, Megan McKenna admitted that she really felt for the reality TV star after she put herself out there this week.

"Catching up with #cbb and wow. I'm choked," Megan wrote. "Legit just cried at tonight's ep… @LillieGregg you've got guts to do what you did tonight."

Agreeing with the TOWIE star, Megan's followers wasted no time slamming Stephen, with one writing: "These "boys" take no responsibility for their actions!!! No wonder these beautiful young women have issues!"

"She tooootttaaallllyyyy just mugged him off 100% taste of his own medicine. Saw the real him for the first time," added another. (sic)

Stephen echoed the thoughts of the public when he told Big Brother: "Maybe it's her lucky escape from me. God knows what she's gone through."

Hmmm… hard to argue with that one.

Look, there's no denying that Netflix smash-hit, Stranger Things, came totally out of left field and knocked us all for six this summer.

And if you still find yourself marvelling at the cast, the story's arc or the wonder that was Dustin, you're not alone.

In fact, you're in pretty good company as Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame is right there with you.

Having been given the opportunity by Elle to interview Millie Bobby Brown who plays Eleven in the sci-fi show, Aaron did what any of us would do – he fangirled all over himself.

According to the magazine, Aaron chatted with Millie over the phone earlier this month, and was unable to keep his chill for even one minute.

"First of all, I love you," he told Millie after thanking her for taking the phone call. "I have to start this off by saying that I'm just such a massive fan of yours."

"I mean, really, from one actor to another, I have such incredible respect for you. I really admire your work," he told the British-born actress.

After Millie revealed that she always felt she wanted to do something creative, Aaron responded:  "I'm so happy that you found this passion inside of you. A group of friends and I have a group chat in which we only discuss Stranger Things and how cool Eleven is."

Sounding genuinely awestruck, Aaron told Millie that her name constantly pops up in discussion in his home.

"I gotta tell you: My wife and I are constantly talking about you," he revealed. "We're constantly saying, 'Her parents must be so proud!' To be honest, we wish that you were our child."

And instead of pretending that the line was suddenly super dodgy before abruptly hanging up, Millie simply laughed, replying: "I wish you were my parents!"

Now, that girl has chill.

While southern parts of the United States are currently contending with the implications of recent floods, it looks like the carefree attitude of one young boy in Baton Rouge has done much to raise the spirits of countless residents.

Appearing behind a news correspondent reporting on the issue, the youngster can be seen throwing some serious shapes, and social media users have really taken him to their hearts.

In a move not often seen during live broadcasts, neither the correspondent nor the cameraman requested that the child remove himself from the shot, but instead treated viewers to almost two minutes of some pretty slick moves.

Uploading the footage to Facebook, WMC Action News 5 paid tribute to the child and drew on the words of one Baton Rouge resident when captioning the video.

"Perhaps a man in Baton Rouge summed it up best when he posted this clip to his own Facebook page, "Was feeling kind of down, then he popped up on my screen and reminded me that no matter what you're going through to just keep on smiling and dancing," they wrote.

"Something's wrong if you didn't just love this kid. I'm in the midst of this historic flood and I loved him," wrote one Facebook user while another insisted: "I'm sorry but not only is he bringing joy but he's bringing a sense of strength to a bad situation."

"I'm working on getting a tractor trailer of goods to the area to help and this kid brought a smile to push me harder to make that happen," they added.

Watch this, and try not to crack a smile…

According to emerging reports, Celebrity Big Brother bosses chose not to air distressing scenes involving Sam Fox on account of being 'genuinely concerned' for the 50-year-old's health and welfare.

This series of the long-running reality show has been widely considered one of its most controversial, and there's no doubt the high drama has taken its toll on some of the show's contestants – something which has raised alarm among show's producers.

Upon noticing that 80s popstar Sam appeared to be struggling, Big Brother called her to the diary room where she was ultimately treated by medics.

Speaking to the Daily Star, a Celebrity Big Brother insider explained: "Sam was not well at all. She was called to the diary room because they were concerned about her health."

"She had a full-blown panic attack. It got pretty serious and they were genuinely concerned," they continued.

In scenes which viewers were not shown, Sam, who has appeared in numerous reality shows including I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here,  was treated and given medication for her anxiety.

"Medics were sent in to make sure she was OK and not at serious risk," the insider revealed. "They even had to give her medication to help her calm down."

Celebrity Big Brother viewers will be aware the former popstar has been having difficulty while taking part in the now infamous reality television show.

According to reports emerging this afternoon, Lillie Lexie has been left devastated by the relationship Stephen Bear shared with Chloe Khan inside the Celebrity Big Brother house.

And it doesn't sounds like she plans to wait for his eviction to have it out with him.

According to The Mirror, Gaz Beadle's ex-girlfriend has been spotted outside the Elstree studios with a packed suitcase sparking rumours that Stephen may be in for a very unwelcome surprise tonight.

Lillie, who dated Geordie Shore's Gary for two years, had plans to marry Stephen after meeting on Ex on the Beach, but it looks like Stephen's romance has (unsurprisingly) put the brakes on those plans.

"I just want to know why he's done this to me. How can you do that to someone you care about?" she said while speaking exclusively to The Mirror last night.

Referring to Stephen's X-rated on-screen antics with Chloe Khan, Lillie added; "If the roles had been reversed, no way in a million years would I have behaved the way he has. I wouldn't want his family to see that."

Clearly stunned that the man she planned to marry would disrespect her in front of millions, Lillie added:" The thing is, if he doesn't want to be with me then that's fine, but why couldn't he have just said that before he went into the house?"

Lillie recently hit the headlines after a very public spat with Geordie Shore's Charlotte.
