Today it was reported that Kylie Jenner and Tyga have parted ways (again).

Nothing has been confirmed, yet nearly every media outlet has claimed that they have the inside scoop.

Whether they broke up over Rob and Chyna's baby news, or Tyga allegedly cheating again, we don't know. But we do know that Twitter has a lot to say about it.

Here are the funniest tweets to come from today's news:

Twitter is known for throwing out more celeb spats than you can shake a stick at, but this latest one has got to be one of the most intense we've ever seen.

It all kicked off when Azealia Banks took a shot at Zayn Malik for using her Yung Rapunxel video as inspiration for his Like I Would track, posting: "Damn Zayn be mood boarding the f*ck out of me. I'm not mad about this though. Zayn is a cutie pie."

Whether or not Zayn was aware of Azealia's remarks we're not sure, but Azealia certainly seemed to take offence at his supposed retort which read "No lies…I see you reaching but I don't care. My @'s too good for you."

And then, ladies, all hell broke loose.

Azealia, who seriously has no chill, tweeted: "Dude, I make better music than you. Simmer down with that fake white boy rebellion and that wannabe beiber swag."

"Do you understand that you are a sand ni**er who emulates white boys' renditions of black male hood?" she tweeted. "U.S.A is about to teach you who not to f*ck with."

‘!mma start calling you punjab you dirty bitch," the 24-year-old singer continued. "‘You a d**k rider for real for real. Ride this d**k until the wheels fall off Punjab."

Obviously blown away by the singer's hate, 23-year-old Zayn responded by tweeting: "Why you been saying nasty things about me? I wasn't talking about you lol?"

This isn't Azealia's first Twitter feud and we doubt it'll be her last.

Last Sunday's episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians saw a glimpse of Lamar Odom in hospital – and it was a very scary sight.

However, just after the show aired, Khloe sent out very cryptic messages on Twitter, which we're guessing were aimed at her former hubby.

Just hours before the tweets and episode went online, TMZ published photos of Lamar drinking whiskey in a bar at the Beverly Centre in Hollywood.

This is what she had to say: 

 Now, we know it's not solid proof that these tweets were about Lamar, but with his recent behaviour we can see why Khloe is disappointed.

After 34 years of marriage it is being reported that Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne have decided to go their separate ways.

Ozzy infamously had a drinking problem for years which caused its problems within the marriage. The couple also made it through Sharon's battle with colon cancer back in 2002.

After meeting when she was just 18 years old, Sharon ended up replacing Ozzy's dad as his manager and the pair married in 1982.

A source has told E! News that Ozzy has moved out of the house after a mutual agreement to split.

The pair have been iconic since their early days, so it's easy to see why people are heartbroken by the break-up:

First Dates Ireland aired its second show on RTÉ2 last night, and we just can't get enough of the Irish humour.

As much as we love the UK version, the Irish show seems to come up with absolute gems.

From Gemma who ended up on a SECOND date with Mark (who didn't seem to remember her), to Kias who wore no socks and asked how long will it take Ciara to sleep with him (erm), it was definitely one to remember.

Here are the Twitterverse's best reactions to the antics in The Gibson Hotel last night:

It's no secret the Twitosphere is a veritable playground for trolls and keyboard warriors who gets their kicks from criticising and harassing others, with celebrities and high-profile figures often coming in for the most abuse.

In fact, the trend has become so prevalent in everyday life, we now consider Jimmy Kimmel's segment, Celebrities Read Mean Tweets, an actual form of entertainment.

But when does it go from harmless p*sstaking to something much more sinister? Something which encourages violence and incites hatred?

Investigating the frightening regularity with which two female sportswriter are harassed, derided and threatened online, the Not Just Sports podcast enlisted the help of a group of men who read the tweets which were targeted at Julie DeCaro and Sarah Spain.

The men became visibly distressed by the content and, at some points, struggled to articulate the sentiments contained with the 140-character posts.

And when you take a look at this video, you'll see why.

First Dates Ireland debuted on RTÉ2 last night and we have to say it was better than we expected.

From the crazy hand-sanitizing Frederica to  Tynan and Simon that were perfect for each other, it's safe to say the first show had a colourful bunch of people.

But possibly the best thing to come from last night's show was the reactions on Twitter. We have rounded off the top tweets to brighten up your Friday:

We totally agree with this one:

 

 We were just as freaked out as Darren:

 

 We are indeed:

 

 You can't beat this one:

 

 NEVER get the age wrong:

 

 We're cringing:

 

 How did his date deal?!

A group on Twitter called EverydaySexism have created a hashtag in order to give a voice to women who suffered sexism, sexual harassment, sexual discrimination or sexual violence as minors, and it is blowing UP the internet today.

#WhenIWas allows women to recall a moment in their childhood or adolescence when they were victimised on account of their sex, and us ladies are getting involved in our thousands.

Here are just some of the times women like you and me were forced to 'accept' the unacceptable.

Take a look, but prepare to feel very, very angry.

The humble chicken fillet is something of a college diet staple, and has saved us from too many hangovers to count.

But after watching RTÉ's What Are You Eating last night, we might skip the hot deli next time we're looking for a quick lunch – and it seems we're not the only ones.

The new series, which kicked off last week, aims to lift the lid on processed and convenience foods, many of which are considered healthy by Irish eaters, but are in fact packed with calories, fat, salt and additives.

And for presenter Philip Boucher-Hayes and chef Hilary O'Hagan, the first meal up on the chopping block was, you've guessed it, the chicken fillet roll. Irish people consume around 45,000 chickens every TWO and a half hours, making us one of the top consumers of poultry in Europe.

It was this clip, in which Hilary explained that virtually all the "good" meat (breast, leg etc) is removed from a chicken carcass before the remainder is blended and crushed up into a "chicken fillet," that really had people questioning their choice of lunch.

The chicken fillet connoisseurs of Twitter didn't take the bad news too well:

Things didn't get much nicer then, as Philip visited a chicken processing factory:

And then of course there were the cold hard facts – between roll and chicken alone, a chicken fillet roll comes in at over 1,000 calories and packs in 5g of salt, more than your RDA of 4g per day.

Up next week is milk and cheese, so we'd suggest having something other than a toastie and a milky cuppa on your plate while watching it…

Catch What Are You Eating next Wednesday March 6 on RTÉ One.

#RunAwayWithMeme is the Carly Rae-Jepsen hashtag we never knew we needed.

If you haven't spotted it on Twitter and Vine yet, it basically involves splicing the opening chords of Carly's song Run Away With Me over different videos.

Like this GENIUS version with Xtina…

 

Or this Simpsons one…

But the best (and most Irish) #RunAwayWithMeme efforts we've seen yet were inspired by today's 1916 Easter Sunday Parade.

Just LOOK:

And again:

Kudos to Twitter user Patrick Kavanagh for these. And if you still haven't had enough, here are a few more of our faves…

TOO GOOD.

Like any twenty-something who's smitten with someone new, Gigi Hadid hasn't been able to resist the odd post about Zayn Malik on her social media accounts.

Cosy couple selfies, snaps of her new man asleep on her couch, it's all there – but that doesn't mean she's going to let people get away with saying nasty things about her or her new relationship.

After posting a photo of her Pillowtalk-ing boyfriend to Twitter last night, the model got a few needlessly negative comments from followers. In true Gigi style through, she had an ice-cold comeback.

The drama started when Gigi posted this sexy snap of Zayn with the caption "I mean…":

Within minutes, Twitter user @modelior stepped in to tell the model to "practise how to walk properly instead of having a new bf every 2 weeks."

Ouch. But Gigi's retort was even harsher, and we kind of love her for it:

"I've dated 3 guys in 3 yrs, hun," the 20-year-old wrote, referencing her previous relationships with Cody Simspon and Joe Jonas. 

"My walk can always get better; I hope the unrelated bitterness in ur heart can too."

YAAAAS, Gigi.

Zayn also weighed in recently on the crazy hype that his new relationship – or any relationship, for that matter – stirs up in the media.

"I try to keep the two very separate. I try to, as much as I can. But there's only so much you can do," he told Complex of the blurred lines between his public and private life.

"I'm learning to deal with it. It's just one of those things now, in the background. I just leave it as a bit of a noise in the background."

So Twitter turned ten years old yesterday which is making us feel kind of old, considering we still remember a world without Twitter. 

The social media giant may have been around for a long time, but if you are a compulsive tweeter, then your Twitter account probably has been too. 

But can you remember what your very first tweet was?

To celebrate its eighth birthday two years ago, the bigwigs at Twitter launched a tool that shows you your very first tweet ever and you can still use it. 

And the best part is, you can check out anyones first tweet. 

And it's safe to say most people (including celebrities) did not have it mastered on the first go, as we soon found out: 

Taylor Swift, for example, has not changed at all in her EIGHT years on Twitter 

Selena didn't have a clue 

Gigi was doing… pretty much exactly what she does now 

Meanwhile her current boyfriend Zayn was busy stating the obvious 

And Kylie, at 13, was just excited to be allowed use social media 

Meanwhile, her big sis Kourtney was ALL of us our first day in Twitter-sphere
