Scotty T is no stranger to a case of mistaken identity.

After recently posing for a snap with former CBB housemate Jeremy McConnell, Twitter users were flummoxed to see Jez had jokingly tagged the Geordie Shore star as Gaz online. (Lol Jez, lol)

And while Scotty T paid little attention to Jeremy's 'gag', he's going to have a harder time living down his own Twitter blunder.

With classic Geordie charm, the CBB winner decided to reach out to Kendall Jenner on Twitter this morning, and failed miserably.

After sharing a photo of Emily Ratajkowski on his page, Scotty tweeted: "Right……..you are ridiculously fit @KendallJenner!"

Finishing off the post with all the tact for which Geordie Shore lads are famed, he hastagged #daymmmm and #gizalick.

Wasting no time schooling poor ol' Scotty on his international models, Twitters users flooded the reality star's page with comments.

"That's not Kendall I'm dying," wrote one while another clarified: "That's not Kendall ya madman that's @emrata."

"To be fair they are the double of each other..but no its not Kendall haha," added another.

Maybe Scotty is trying out Jeremy's approach to online humour…

He's made it well known that he's bad at dating and we were probably as surprised as him when we found out that nobody bothered to swipe right for him on Tinder.

But now it seems like Zac Efron has a beauty in his sights.

The actor has been cheering on the US women's gymnastics team since the Olympic games began, and we think he has a little crush for Simone Biles.

The gymnast was talking to NBC News recently, where she let slip that she has a little crush on the star (and even has life-size cut-out of Zac in her bedroom!).

However, it seems to be Zac making the first move as he wrote about his admiration of her on Twitter.

"So phenomenal a skill's named after her. Congrats on sticking the Biles and qualifying for the finals @simone_biles!"

And the tweet didn't go unnoticed, either. Simone replied to Mr Efron, saying: "Thanks Zac! I hope you can watch Team Final tomorrow night."

And of course, Zac listened to Simone and shared this picture:

We love the little winky face he threw in there.

Being a successful TV presenter obviously has its perks – you get to meet incredible people, travel to exclusive locations and wear the nicest gear.  But as Laura Whitmore just pointed out, fame also has some major disadvantages.

It’s only been a day since the Bray native announced that she will be taking part in the upcoming series of Strictly Come Dancing and already the paparazzi are creeping on her gaff.

And while many people would board up their windows in a bid to protect their privacy, Laura has decided to call out the “creepy photographer” in question for his actions.

 

 

In her latest tweet the 31-year-old star shared a picture of the photographer who is trying to snap a photo of her from a Mini parked outside her house.

In the accompanying message the London-based presenter said: “Creepy photographer outside my house…I see you.  Thanks for making me feel intimidated in my own home.”

Laura’s followers have been quick to support her statement as one tweeted “Disgusting!  Your home is where you are supposed to feel safe,” while another adopted a more light-hearted approach by writing: “@thewhitmore do a few dance steps for him.”

With more than 54 million Instagram followers, it would be fairly impossible for Khloé Kardashian to keep everyone happy, but it looks like her latest upload has managed to enrage more than a few people this time around.

Taking to social medis to share a snap of herself sporting a head of Bantu knots, the reality star has come under fire and been widely accused of cultural appropriation.

After uploading a photo of herself with the caption 'Bantu Babe', the 32-year-old deleted it before replacing with with another entitled 'I like this one better'.

 

I like this one better

A photo posted by Khloé (@khloekardashian) on

But by the looks of things, her followers certainly didn't, and wasted no time calling the star out on her choice of hairstyle.

"Such a trifling mess. My soul hurts," wrote one Instagram user beneath the snap while another added: "Jesus lawd. This sh*t? AGAIN BRUH?!"

"You don't stand up for black lives, but you love to take black culture," opined another while a fellow follower insisted: "If your using my culture as a trend your part of the problem." (sic)
 

However, with the photo having been liked almost half a million times in 12 hours, it's clear that not everyone is offended by the star's decision to attempt the style.

"Take some the criticism with a pinch of salt, some people just can't help being dumb! You look great," encouraged one of Khloé's fans.

Something tells us that despite the criticism Khloé won't be removing the photo (or the knots).

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…

She's one-fifth of one of the hottest bands of the moment, but Normani Kordei has now quit social media following an outburst of disgusting, racist abuse. 

The Fifth Harmony singer shared a lengthy message with her fans and revealed she's been bombarded with unwarranted message in recent days.

"Over the course of this last week and especially over the last 48 hours I've not just been cyber bullied, I've been racially cyberbullied with tweets and pictures so horrific and racially charged that I can't subject myself any longer to the hate," the 20-year-old explained to her 1.72million followers.

"Hiding behind a computer and putting people down, especially for the color of their skin doesn't make you cool, it makes you a coward!" she continued.

Among the horrifying attacks she received in recent days is a despicable photo that appears to show her face photoshopped onto a lynched African American, as well as a tweet referring to her as "narmonkey."

However, Normani concluded: "I'm not the first black female celebrity to deal with this and I'm sure I won't be the last," she penned. "I want to take this moment to say Love goes much further than hate in this world."

When Orlando Bloom decided to do a spot of naked paddle boarding while living it up on holidays with girlfriend, Katy Perry, this week, paparazzi (obviously) had an absolute field day.

Wearing just a cap, the Pirates of the Carribean star was more than happy to let it all hang out, and photographers were more than happy to capture the candid display.

Do you know who's NOT happy though? Twitter, that's who.

Disgusted that the only photos available to the public have been censored, social media have taken to Twitter in their droves to express their distress over the injustice.

Swinging between excitement that a naked Orlando Bloom could  – if the New York Daily News would only give up the snaps – be just a click away, and pure anguish over the delay, social media users did what they do best.

They vented like good things, and here are just some of our favourites.

It's no secret that half the country was regularly revitalised with litres of 7UP in the Eighties and Nineties.

Still, a far newer lemon-and-lime beverage has been muscling in on our thirsty ways since it launched in 2001.

Step forward Sprite – always somewhat of a controversial alternative to its longer-established rival, but nonetheless a formidable option for those in the market for a citrus-based fizzy drink.

Sadly for Sprite, however, the brand endured a bit of a battering on social-media today – with its #BrutallyRefreshing campaign drawing in plenty of hard-hitting criticism. 

Brandishing deeply uncomfortable taglines such as "she's seen more ceilings than Michelangelo"; "you're not popular, you're easy", and "a 2 at 10 is a 10 at 2," it appeared on a male-focused lifestyle website before hastily being removed as the backlash took off. 

Conversation on the matter remained in full flow online this evening – with outraged Twitter users being quick to express their disdain for the advert. 

Among them was popular 2fm host Louise McSharry. Sharing a screen-shot of the offending campaign, she asked her 15K followers: "SERIOUSLY with this takeover in 2016?" The message later received close-to 100 retweets and the same number of likes.

A response to Louise from the editor of the site admitted that the ad didn't reflect its "brand values". "It shouldn't have been there and it has since been removed," he added.

Still, further comments online called the ads "appalling and disgusting," while one person stated: "Sprite's sexist 'banter' marketing campaign tastes old and flat. On the boycott list!"

Others were more playful, however; one user's lighthearted commentary read: "Kinda impressed by how awful Sprite's #BrutallyRefreshing campaign is.

"It looks like someone in advertising was trying to get fired."

Meanwhile, plenty of others simply stated their sudden craving for a cool, refreshing – and non-insulting – bottle of 7UP.

As anyone who’s ever flown long haul will know, there is nothing better than sleeping as you fly.  But as One Direction’s Niall Horan has discovered, catching forty winks mid-flight can have its disadvantages.

The Mullingar man shared a few choice words on Twitter last night after an overenthusiastic One D fan snapped him while he slept.

After finding themselves flying alongside the popstar, the fan shared a picture of Niall's nap with the caption: “And to sum up the PERFECT European adventure, I sat directly next to Niall from One Direction for 9 hours on my flight home from London last night.” 

“He was sick and asked for no selfies, but here is a pic I snapped when he was sleeping lol he was so friendly!” 

“Talked about Ireland, LSE, lolla, and more.  Not a British Duke…But an Irish Popstar will do.  Thanks for treating me so well Europe.”

Clearly Niall was less than impressed with his privacy being invaded as upon discovering the post he screenshotted it, re-shared it and wrote: “I think this sh*t is unreal.  I mean if you can’t sleep on a plane without people taking photos of you, what can u do” (sic).

 

 

In classic One Direction fashion, the band’s fans already have a hashtag trending over the incident.

#RespectNiall is currently doing the rounds on Twitter as fans share comments like “There are no words for this” and “All I can say is ‘HE’S REAL’”.

The terrifying moment a young boy was spotted inside the rhino enclosure at Dublin Zoo has been captured by social media users.

Several images show the boy in the company of an adult male – who significantly is standing outside the fence. And with the same images being shared on Twitter, many observers understandably expressed their concern.

One user who was at the zoo on Saturday said she saw the boy in the enclosure for a 'good 20 minutes'.

Asking SHEmazing not be named but confirming the incident with us, she had previously told the Irish Daily Mail: "The child didn’t look scared and nobody really passed any heed on what he was doing.

"The child stood there for a good while and the man kept letting go of his hand and telling him to move further back to pose for a picture."

Rathmines-based architect Ciarán Ferrie also spotted the ordeal, sharing two photos via his Twitter account. 

A spokesperson for the zoo said over the weekend that the "matter is being taken care of internally".

Dublin Zoo keeps several white rhinos as part of its African Plains attraction.

When the Plains initially opened in 2001, the animals – including zebra, ostriches, and giraffe – mingled together. However, after a female rhino charged at and killed a zebra in 2009, the rhinos were segregated into their own space.

At the time, a zoo official stated that the incident was an accident, but added that "there are no guarantees when you're dealing with wild animals".

Three years ago also at Dublin, a two-year-old girl was mauled by a tapir during a supervised visit to the animal’s enclosure. She was left with deep cuts on her arm and stomach and underwent surgery in Temple Street Children’s Hospital.

A decade ago, a 16-year-old girl scaled a two-metre fence to reach the Siberian tiger enclosure. She subsequently received significant injuries to her limb.

A Cincinnati Zoo in June, a three-year-old boy fell into the gorilla enclosure – resulting in the shooting dead of the ape. The boy was unharmed.

In Morocco last month, an eight-year-old girl died after she was accidently struck by a rock thrown by an elephant at Rabat Zoo.

Last night, Shay Given announced that he is retiring from international football.

The 40-year-old goalkeeper took to Twitter to thank his fans and team-mates for all of their undying support over the years.

He wrote: “I’m one of the lucky ones who got to wear the jersey for his country and wore the badge with pride 134 times.

"But now it's time to hang up the gloves and move from the onion bag to the terraces, where I'll be shouting the lads on as one of Ireland's biggest fans."

He finished with: "Couldn't have done it without you."

With a very emotional goodbye, his fans flocked to Twitter to wish him the best:

Whether it was too subtle or too sarky, we're all had moments where we instantly regret a joke we've made on social media.

From realising it hasn't quite landed to sweating over your followers' response to your stand-up material, social media can be a minefield when it comes to the lols as Jeremy McConnell discovered this morning.

After sharing a snap of himself and fellow Celebrity Big Brother contestant, Scotty T, on Twitter, Jezza decided to caption the shot: "Me and Gaz last ni." (sic)

But it wasn't Gaz…and that, ladies, is the joke. (Badum-bum-chiiiii)

Fearful Jeremy had had a lobotomy, the reality star's followers wasted no time schooling him on the Geordie Shore cast, with one writing: "WTF that's Scotty T check again it's defo not gaz lol."

"Awkward moment when you don't even know that it's @ScottGShore and not @GazGShore," added another.

As more and more members of the public took to Twitter to set Jeremy straight, the Dubliner clearly reached the end of his tether, replying: "I know it's Scotty you morons."

Well you can see where the confusion arose Jez…

Rushing to the defence of Jeremy's quality gag, one Twitter user raged: "A majority of tweeters have had a humour bypass. They must have undergone this procedure when they had their brains removed."

Hmmm…we don't know about that one.
