She may be an incredible actress who can actually make Eggos look appealing, but it turns out Millie Bobby Brown of Stranger Things fame can also really sing.

In footage which has been uploaded to YouTube, the hero of the latest Netflix smash hit show channels her inner Ed and Amy, and the public are seriously impressed.

Before performing Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran – who is currently being sued on the grounds that the song bears a striking similarity to a Marvin Gaye track – the young actress appears a tiny bit nervous, but then comes into her own in footage which has been viewed almost 100,000 times.
 

More recently, the 12-year-old actress gave it her all to Amy Winehouse's You Know I'm No Good, and while YouTubers cannot get enough, many couldn't help but turn attention towards Millie's role as Eleven in the sci-fi show.

Praising Millie's performance on Stranger Things, fans of the actress insist her star is only set to rise, with one writing: "They are going to put you on the big screen. just wait and see."

We're with them on that one.

While The Hills is probably best known for the tension that played out between Lauren Conrad and Spencer Pratt, Spencer wasn't the only co-star Lauren had trouble getting on with.

As regular Hills viewers will know, another seed of resentment bubbled beneath the surface for years, and it involved Lauren and Audrina's on again/ off again boyfriend Justin Bobby.

While they never had too much face-to-face animosity, the reality show devoted numerous scenes to documenting the pair's mutual distrust of each other.

Whether it was Lauren warning her friend off the biker boy – "Homeboy wore combat boots to the beach" – or Justin urging Audrina to reconsider her friendship with LA's favourite headband-wearer, it's safe there was no love lost between JB and LC.

And while it doesn't seem like Lauren has given Justin a second thought since leaving the show, Justin has PLENTY to say about her Laguna Beach alumni.

With MTV celebrating the show's 10th anniversary, Audrina's former flame decided to speak out and share his opinion of Lauren.

"She wasn't the most down-to-earth. You get a young girl like that, who has been on TV since she was 18, and her whole life's exposed – how do you get an actual normal person at that point?" he asked while speaking to Broadly.

"You don't get someone who's down-to-earth and someone who's loving and caring," he raged."You get someone who's f*cking twisted."

In comparison to his opinion of Heidi's former BFF, Justin is a major Speidi fan, continuing: "I liked that their love stayed true.  I mean they had so much ridicule for doing what they're doing, and they're still together."

"They're still saying, 'Fuck you.' That to me is like, 'You guys won all the way around.'" he added.

This is all the evidence you need that you should NEVER mock a man's decision to change his name.

Nope Justin, clearly not.

For those of you who have yet to get stuck into the sci-fest fest that is Stranger Things, Barb was undoubtedly the unsung hero of the latest Netflix smash hit.

The long-suffering friend of the high-achieving Nancy, Barb embodied ALL of us during the most awkward phases of our teenage years.

Ginger, bespetacled, and with all the craic of someone's particularly uptight grandmother, Barb was everyone in secondary school attempting to fit in with the cool kids while doing right by her best friend.

And with the show's creators having been commended for their uncanny portrayal of 1980s America, it seems they really hit the nail on the head when it came to the ill-fated Barb.

Taking to Twitter to acknowledge the all-round appeal of the awkward teen, social media users have shared throwback photos of themselves looking like a stand-in for the flame-haired Barb.

And ladies, they're not wrong…

Since its advent at the dawn of the new millennium, Big Brother, and its celebrity spin-off shows, have gradually become more and more risqué.

With members of the general public and so-called C-list celebs vying for notoriety in the now infamous reality TV house, the antics of contestants has, over the years, escalated from chaste kisses and nocturnal fumblings to full-on sexcapades in full view of other housemates.

And it sounds like a lot of people have had enough.

With Marnie Simpson making headlines after enjoying the 'most romantic shower' of her life with Lewis Bloor, and Stephen Bear (who has a girlfriend) begging Chloe Khan for sex in the house bathroom in the latest series, campaigners are concerned about the x-rated nature of the show.

Calling for the long-running show – which switched from Channel 4 to Channel 5 in 2011 – to be axed, a spokesperson for Mediawatchdog-UK said: "If Channel 5 needs to resort to this sort of controversy to maintain any interest in Celebrity Big Brother, then perhaps the format needs to be allowed to die a bit more quietly."

"What’s most concerning here is Channel 5’s on-demand service that allows children to watch such programmes with just a box tick to say they’re old enough."

"Post-watershed is one thing but the Internet means nudity is on the air 24 hours a day," they added.

Remember when Tom's red shorts were the talk of the summer back in 2000?

Dirty Dancing is one of those movies you watch when you need cheering up, or if you're having a movie night with your friends. Actually, it's one of those movies that just suits any situation and that's why we love it so much.

However, now ABC has made a remake of the movie, which will only be aired on TV, and well, we don't really know how we feel about that.

The original was just so perfect, from Patrick's moves, to Jennifer's watermelons, there's nothing we would change.

The new movie stars Little Miss Sunshine's Abigail Breslin, who plays Baby and Colt Prattes, who plays Johnny.

Nicole Scherzinger is playing Johnny's pregnant dance partner, Penny.

Let's just say they have big shoes to fill!

Rob Kardashian may be part of the most famous reality TV family of all time, but that doesn’t mean the father-to-be is as dedicated to life in front of the camera as his celebrity sisters.

As the production of his upcoming reality series with Blac Chyna continues, the 29-year-old sock entrepreneur has reportedly been absent from filming on multiple occasions because he fears Rob & Chyna is having a negative effect on his relationship.

According to a TMZ source, Rob believes Keeping Up With the Kardashians destroyed his family and now fears his latest reality venture will have the same effect on his eight-month romance.

 

 

YES !…!…!

Because of this Rob has bailed on a number of shoots for the show, including his grandmother’s birthday in San Diego which his partner attended without him.

The programme's producers are reportedly concerned that they will not be able to gather enough strong footage to bring Rob & Chyna to air.

There are some people who choose between the six original cast members when discussing their favourite Friends characters, and then there's other people – us – who choose Mike Hannigan.

Ah Mike, ye of the phantom keyboard tricks, sick one-liners and 'sailor on leave' skills.

Played by Paul Rudd, Mike Hannigan was the first man that made Phoebe think she might want to hang up her hippie threads and become a soccer mom for life.

But it looks like the writers didn't actually have this future in mind for Phoebe.

According to Hank Azaria, who played Phoebe's love interest David in earlier episodes, writers actually intended to bring David back, pair him off with Phoebe and let those two lovebirds live out their hippie/ sciencey future together.

And it sounds like Hank was pretty cut up about the writers' decision.

"It actually did sting a little bit," Hank said. "Whatever part of me is David the science guy who went to Minsk, which admittedly is probably a small part of me, but that part of me wanted to end up with Phoebe."

Giving props to Paul, Hank, who's best known for voicing numerous Simpsons characters said; "I think, honestly, what happened was Paul Rudd is so awesome that they sort of found a groove with him and my character became more of just the grist for that mill."

Imagine Phoebe's wedding to Mike hadn't gone ahead – no steel drum, no dying dog, no manic wedding planning from Monica… it just wouldn't have been the same.

Attempting to do justice to one of the world's greatest performers is no mean feat – something which X Factor hopefuls should keep in mind – so hats off to Ariana Grande who pulled it off with aplomb during a performance on ABC's show Greatest Hits this week.

Paying tribute to Whitney Houston, who died suddenly in 2012, the Bang Bang singer performed a mash-up of How Will I Know and Queen of the Night, and she absolutely slayed.

Taking to social media to mark the performance, Ariana wrote: "Thank you so much @greatesthitsabc. Honored & grateful to have been a part. #howwilliknow #queenofthenight"

And in a total break from the norm when it comes to covers of pop classics, YouTubers were all for an album of Ariana doing Whitney.

"Paying tribute to a legend is quite a hard work and she did it so good," wrote one while another added: "Can we just have a whole album of just Ariana doing covers bc this, this, is heavenly."

Credit where credit's due, this is glorious.

Fountains of Wayne had it right when they said Stacy's mom has got it going on, but it looks like the memo failed to reach Stacy's mom herself who is currently undergoing bizarre rituals in an effort to look younger.

Rachel Hunter, who played every teenage boy's dream in the video for the 2003 chart-topper, came to prominence in the early 90s when she appeared on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, and despite no longer modelling, the New Zealand-born star still possesses a keen interest in the world of beauty.

As part of her television show, Tour Of Beauty, the 46-year-old former model is allowing therapists from around the world to perform a myriad of beauty rituals on her.

Taking to Instagram this week, Rachel shared her experience of an Asian treatment, and it looks pretty uncomfortable.

The treatment removes the fine hairs from a woman's face with the help of a neck razor – all in an effort to open pores and assist the absorption of moisturiser – and must be repeated every three weeks so as to avoid the emergence of stubble.
 

Uploading a video of herself looking mildly uncomfortable as the blade edged towards her eye in the 'Japan Episode', Rachel wrote: "Having a shave. No I didn't grow any stubble. But I have to say my skin felt amazing."

"Just some of the amazing experiences I had from superfoods to ancient remedies, on wellness , longevity on @rachelstourofbeauty #beauty #beautycare," she added.

Instagram users were quick to comment on the upload, with many enquiring into the after-care procedure and others offering their opinion on the treatment.

"Discussed this with Japanese woman here in Sydney," wrote one follower. "She said her mum does this. She said to her mum "You're crazy for shaving", and her mum replied "You're crazy for not shaving". We all have our own version of normal."

Too true…but we don't think we'll be trying it any time soon.

According to emerging reports, Stephen Bear was removed from the Celebrity Big Brother house last house and forced to spend it in isolation.

It has been established that security were called upon to intervene after the Ex on the Beach star got into a heated row with a fellow housemate in the early house of the morning.

Apparently it all kicked off between Stephen and Heavy D following a game of Truth or Dare which resulted in Stephen kissing Chloe Khan.

After later becoming embroiled in an argument, Heavy D was called to the diary room and Stephen made his way to the smoking area where he threw a cup at a mirror.

After being reprimanded by Big Brother, Stephen was confronted by security who attempted to diffuse the situation 

The reality star was then told he would not be permitted entry back into the house, and was forced instead to spend the night in the spare bedroom.

Stephen was issued with a formal warning, but something tells us it won't be his last one.

The Siddiqui family are used to remarking on other people's public eff-ups from the comfort of their own front room, so it must have come as a shock to realise they were one of the main talking points on social media today.

Grabbing headlines all over the UK and Ireland, the much-loved family from Derby found themselves on the wrong side of public opinion after a family member made reference to ISIS in a Facebook post over the weekend.

Sharing an image of himself and his brothers Umar and Baasit in camouflage gear before a paintballing session, Raza – who has made only brief appearances on the long-running Channel 4 show – joked that the trio were in training to join terrorist group ISIS.

The siblings, who appear alongside their father Sid, were then the subject of a police investigation before being cleared of any wrongdoing, and now that the dust has settled Baasit has addressed the furore on his personal Twitter page.

While known for his dry sense of humour, the dad-of-one erred on the side of caution when acknowledging the issue, writing: "The image on Facebook was meant to be light-hearted but was clearly a joke that was misjudged."

"We are extremely sorry for any offence caused," he added in a post earlier today.

Thankfully for the family, who are widely considered one of the most popular on the show, Baasit's followers were quick to offer their support.

 

"Instantly knew it was a joke. Some people are too quick to judge! Your family are fantastic," wrote one while another added: "Don't apologise it was bloody hilarious!! Good on you lads for having a laugh like the rest of us!"

"It was funny! I'm appalled that so many are making such a big deal out of it," added another while a fellow Twitter user remarked: "Crazy that anyone would be offended by it. I thought it was funny; you're all the complete antithesis of IS, obvs."

Looks like the lads can rest easy now.

Remember that time you won an award and used the moment to throw some serious shade at someone else? Yeah us neither, but that's because we're not Cameron Dallas.

The 21-year-old internet star, who first rose to prominence through Vine, was accepting an accolade at the Teen Choice Awards on Sunday when he made a remark which has caused uproar on social media this week.

During a game of Would You Rather, Cameron was asked whether he would prefer to use Justin Timberlake or Jessica Alba's toothbrush to which Cameron replied:" Oh man, I would choose, I would honestly choose Justin Timberlake just because I don't know where Jessica's been."

That's right ladies; he doesn't know where she's been.

Stunned by Cameron's total disregard for the Sin City star, social media users took to Twitter in their droves to call Cameron out on his remarks.

"Did Cameron Dallas just make a ridiculously sexist comment about Jessica Alba?" wrote one while another added: "I'm sorry but I'm still pressed over what Cameron Dallas said about Jessica Alba. That was disgusting and uncalled for. Ugly."

Like any savvy social media star, Cameron went into damage control and quickly took to his own page to clarify his comments, writing: "Yo it was literally a joke, I love @jessicaalba and would share a toothbrush with her till I die lol."

Fans of the star, who is the new face of Calvin Klein's jeans campaign, were all over him following his apology, with many insisting they – unlike the rest of us – knew he was only joking. 

"Everyone takes things so seriously nowadays,I knew it was a joke as soon as you said it!" insisted one while another "Your fans always will be here for you, never forget that!"

Yeah Cameron, never forget that, y'hear?
