Piers Morgan is at it again.

Himself and Amber Rose have been having a go at each other on Twitter after the US model posted a half-naked photo of herself on Instagram. 

The 33-year-old shared the image on social media, in which she showed her pubic hair, in a effort to encourage women to embrace their bodies.

However, it seems not everyone is a fan of the natural look, and of course Piers had to have his say.

Replying to Amber's post, the journalist urged her to “put it away, luv”- a message which in turn prompted a huge response of its own.

The model then replied using the hashtag "#IllTakeThingsMisogynisticAssholesSayfor500Alex", and thus an all out Twitter spat was created.

The pair never did resolve the row, and what's more, Katie Hopkins just had to get involved in the action. 

Can't we all just get along?

A few years ago, Beauty Blenders came crashing onto the beauty scene and revolutionised the way we apply we apply makeup.

Where had those little egg-shaped sponges been all our lives?

Makeup lovers the world over swear by the simple  tool, but one issues has arisen time and time again – why are they so damn hard to clean?

Well ladies, the struggle is finally over.

One Twitter user has come up with the ultimate solution to this common problem, and we are amazed at how simple it actually is.

The answer has been sitting on our kitchen sinks the entire time.

Simply soak the sponge in a mixture of Fairy Liquid and water, pop it in the microwave for one minute and voila – good as new.

Since Tuesday, the tweet has has been liked over 30,000 times, proving how revolutionary this hack really is.

But don't just take our word for it. The results have been amazing. 

Honestly, we're just mad we didn't think of this before.

Following in the footsteps of Skins and Shameless, it now look like Misfits is the next Channel 4 show to get an American remake.

The new version is being developed by The OC and Gossip Girl creator, Josh Schwartz and a number of the leading roles have already been cast with Ashleigh LaThrop, Tre Hall, Allie MacDonald and Jake Cannavale all set to appear in the pilot episode.

The original series ran from 2009 to 2013 and gathered a huge cult following along the way.
 

Much like the original, the US version will follow a group of young delinquents, who develop super powers after being hit by an electrical storm.

It's thought that the new script will stick closely to that of the original, but unsurprisingly fans still have their reservations.

And who could blame them? We all remember the Skins disaster right?

Hundreds of women are taking to Twitter today to delve into the reasons why they choose to proudly wear the label of a feminist. 

The #FeministsAreEverywhere hashtag is trending in Ireland this morning, ahead of the Women's Council of Ireland's Feminists are everywhere AGM. 

 Women (and their male allies) are taking to Twitter in their droves, citing the gender pay gap, abortion rights and social equality as the catalysts that make them proud to call themselves feminists. 

'Feminists are everywhere will feature feminists in a range of areas and sectors, including feminist leaders in advocacy and campaigning, the media, in business and in the community,' reads the Women's Council of Ireland event description.

'Speakers will discuss the challenges women still face in order to become leaders and outline what needs to happen to make Ireland a more equal society.'

Want to feel inspired to tackle the patriarchy today?

Look no further than this fierce, feminist tag.

On Sunday, our president Michael D. Higgins met Bernie Saudners in the Áras, and it's safe to say our bromance dreams came true.

Of course, we all went wild with the pictures, but it wasn't until last night that America caught on to it.

Bernie tweeted a picture with Mickey D, while also letting his supporters know that both of them have very similar views on a number of important issues.

However, Twitter concentrated more on the resemblance of the pair, going so far as to say they're twins:

And many Americans LOVED that our president's Twitter handle is @PresidentIRL:

We can see the buds of a beautiful friendship.

If you watched the One Love Manchester concert then you'll know that Justin did an amazing job.

His heartwarming songs and words of goodwill made us fall back in love with him, so it's no wonder that Twitter went a tad crazy when he announced he's releasing new music last night.

JB wrote: "New music. This Friday. Me and @davidguetta."

And of course, everyone lost it:

Already this year, Justin has performed with DJ Khaled on I'm The One, as well as lending his voice to the absolute tune, Despacito.

So ladies, we're officially less than 24 hours away from the first day of the Leaving Cert.

And, as you can imagine, Twitter is lit right now.

Instead of actually… you know… studying, this year's candidates are tweeting their thoughts about the upcoming state exam, and suffice to say, it makes for hilarious reading.

What they lack in preparation, they more than make up for in humour.

1. You have been warned.

 2. Yeah, why like?

3. Been there. 

4, Yeah… 

5. Graphic… but understandable. 

6. Yup. 

7. Ah, our spirit animal. 

8. Positive thoughts…

9. That's one way to go about it. 

10. Oh, we relate.

So, weddings are supposed to be all about the couple who are choosing to spend the rest of their lives with each other right?

Not according to this guy.

One unnamed bride recently wrote to Slate Magazine's advice column Dear Prudence, revealing how the 'best man' her wedding used the opportunity to propose to his own girlfriend.

But that's not all, he also announced that he and long-term partner, Jane, were expecting a child.

Talk about stealing someone's thunder.

The letter which was later shared on Twitter read: "My husband and I started dating, got pregnant, had a child, moved in together, bought a house and got a dog in that order."

"Our friends and family have asked us for years why we weren’t married yet. We always pushed it off to build better lives. We’ve done really well for ourselves and finally reached a point where we could afford a huge blowout wedding to celebrate our lives with everyone we know and love. My husband’s best friend, “John”, was the best man/officiant."

"The setting was beautiful, everyone seemed happy, our families were overjoyed. My mum may have used the phrase “Hallelujah’” a few dozen times. The entire atmosphere felt moving."

"So moving in fact, that John stopped mid-ceremony to propose to his longtime girlfriend, “Jane”, and reveal her pregnancy."

The day, which was meant to be all about the bride and groom, then became focused on John and Jane. 

"I couldn’t even hear the vows my husband wrote or the rest of the ceremony over the noise of Jane’s happy sobs," she wrote. 

"John even went out of his way to ask the band for a special dance for just him and Jane on the dance floor."

The absolute cheek.

Needless to say, when Twitter users got wind of this bizarre story they were not one bit happy. 

The bride finished the letter by asking if she was being unreasonable. 

The answer? No. Absolutely not.

Piers Morgan has apologised to Ariana Grande after condemning her for not visiting the victims of the Manchester terror attack last week.

The outspoken television presenter took to Twitter during the One Love Manchester concert, to admit that he had 'misjudged' the singer.

Following the news that the Queen had visited the Manchester Children's hospital in the days following the attack, Piers tweeted, "If the Queen can visit the victims in hospital, so can the star they paid to see." He added, "I expected her to stay, visit & comfort her wounded fans & relatives of those who died".

The comments received huge backlash online, but he refused to apologise even after Ariana announced she would visit the victims in hospitals around Manchester.

Speaking during Sunday night's One Love Manchester concert, Ariana revealed how she was inspired to change the set list for the benefit gig after the mother of Olivia Campbell-Hardy, one of the victims said her daughter 'would have wanted to hear the hits'.

"I had the pleasure of meeting Olivia's mummy a few days ago and I started to cry and gave her a big hug and she said 'stop crying, because Olivia wouldn't have wanted you to cry'.

"And then she told me Olivia would have wanted to hear the hits. We had a different show planned and we had a rehearsal yesterday and we changed everything."

As well as organising the benefit concert, the 23-year-old singer has offered to to pay for the funerals of the victims and her record label donated $500,000 to the We Love Manchester Fund.

We have a soft spot for Black Eyed Peas since they were basically the soundtrack to our teenage years.

However, the band performed at the Champions League Final *sans Fergie* last night, and it's safe to say that nobody was impressed.

First of all, there is no Black Eyed Peas without Fergie (in our opinion), and well, Twitter was just baffled as to why they were performing in the first place.

The lads, Will.i.am, Taboo and apl.de.ap (we forgot about their stage names), basically just bopped around to Boom Boom Pow for a few minutes.

RTÉ's George Hamilton then described the band as "Will.i.am and his mates." Brilliant.

Oh, where did it all go wrong?

Body shaming is still alive and well in society, whether it's in the Instagram comment section or among a peer group.

For many people, body shaming is something they deal with everyday, and the very first time anyone made a comment about their bodies was memorable.

The founder and CEO of sportswear company Oiselle Sally Bergesen took to Twitter to ask women to share that first comment on Twitter to shed light on the issue.

Hundreds of women took to the hashtag #TheySaid after Sally shared her own experience of being called a 'butterball' as a child. 

Women from all walks of life and of all shapes and sizes shared their experiences, proving not only that body shaming is a regular occurrence, but that it effects women of all sizes. 

Many of the experiences were completely heartbreaking: 

The comments were made by family, co-workers and even college professors. 

The hashtag aimed to create a narrative around body shaming, and women from around the world are still contributing.

We all know John Kavanagh as the man who coached Conor Mcgregor to UFC fame.

He's also the older brother of Snapchat star, James Kavanagh.

However, one woman believed he was the owner of J.J. Kavanagh bus services, and decided to email him about coach times.

A woman called Áine messaged the MMA coach on Facebook, asking for very specific time tables:

Understandably, John has an automated response because of all the McGregor questions he receives, and it wasn't until that automated message came through that Áine realised her mistake.

John noticed her message however, and had to reply:

Brilliant. We wonder if anyone else has ever made this mistake!
