Ronan Keating has surprised his fans today by releasing a new music video for his song In Your Arms, but that's not the only surprise that's landed.

The singer debuted the new video, which shows footage from his wedding day – a move nobody expected him to make.

Scenes from his outdoor wedding in Scotland where he married Storm Uechtritz are featured in the footage as well as behind-the-scenes moments from when he and Storm were getting ready before the big ceremony.

Speaking to The Mirror, Ronan said: "It's the first time I have done something like this, which kind of seems appropriate given there are so many 'first time' things about this album.

"They're obviously very personal videos – and songs – because not only is my wife involved with both, so are my kids and our wedding day.

"I've never included my family in this way before and it makes me very proud – I guess because I've never been in a position to be so honest in my music before."

"It's liberating. My family are a true extension of me," he added.

We're big fans of Princess Kate around these parts – so today we've been pretty ecstatic at the news that the British royal has just made her SnapChat debut.

And while sadly, the 34-year-old hasn't set up her own profile just yet (imagine the totes adorbs snaps of George and Charlotte!), she did appear on the social media platform via winning semi-finalist Serena Williams's account. 

Hurrah!

In the video, which was taken at Wimbledon earlier today, the Duchess Of Cambridge can be seen rocking a bright yellow dress from Roskanda alongside the clearly delighted tennis superstar. 

Sophie, Countess Of Wessex is also in attendance and after Kate beckons for her to join the party-of-two, she can also be seen smiling warmly for the footage. 

And while the wife of Prince Wills is evidently rocking her best 'I'm not so sure about this but I better just play along' face – with Ms Williams, Wimbledon's current defending champion, is relishing the moment. 

Indeed, at one stage she announces: "OK so I'm in the in crowd now… I'm with royalty!"

With Serena now through to Saturday's final, and with the Duchess due to make further SW19 appearances over the course of the final few days of the competition, here's to hoping we can nab another few SnapChat sneak-peaks of Kate.

Filming a collection of naked celebrities in bed together is always going to get a reaction – even if those celebrities are actually made of wax.

So it's little surprise that Kanye West's new Famous video has caused a whole lot of WTF feelings online.

Although most of those who actually feature in the controversial clip – which shows everyone from Taylor Swift to Donald Trump in bed with Kim Kardsahian West and her infamous video-creating husband – have yet to comment, Girls creator Lena Dunham has stepped up to offer her thoughts on what she's dubbed "one of the more disturbing ‘artistic’ efforts in recent memory".

In a lengthy Facebook post the avid feminist divided the Kardashian-West household by slamming Kanye’s work while praising Kim and her sisters for the way they represent women.

She wrote: “Like many pop culture addicted Americans, I wait with bated breath for what Kanye West will do next. Aside from his Twitter mayhem, he has created some really ‘next level sh*t’.”

“I could also happily watch Kim Kardashian West chip the paint off a window ledge for hours and be fascinated.”

“I admire that whole family, love the way they depict women as better in numbers and masters of their own destiny. I'd spend all summer at Kamp Kardashian.”

“But…the Famous video is one of the more disturbing ‘artistic’ efforts in recent memory.”

After referencing the recent Stanford rape case, Bill Crosby's sexual assault allegations and the alarming issue of sexual assaults being streamed online, the author said: “I'm sure that Bill Cosby doll being in the bed alongside Donald Trump is some kind of statement, that I'm probably being trolled on a super high level.”

“I know that there's a hipper or cooler reaction to have than the one I'm currently having. But guess what? I don't have a hip cool reaction."

"Seeing a woman I love like Taylor Swift…reduced to a pair of waxy breasts…makes me feel sad and unsafe and worried for the teenage girls who watch this and may not understand that grainy roving camera as the stuff of snuff films.”

“Here's the thing, Kanye: you're cool. Make a statement on fame and privacy and the Illuminati or whatever is on your mind!”

“But I can't watch it, don't want to watch it, if it feels informed and inspired by the aspects of our culture that make women feel unsafe even in their own beds, in their own bodies.”

If you’ve ever been bothered by your inability to chop hard-boiled eggs into perfectly rounded circles – or if you just like looking at weird food – then this is for you.

The mystery of circular egg slices has long baffled deli-goers, but turns out the reason those eggs are so round is because they are cut from one giant tubular egg called a Danish long egg.

Now before you start convincing yourselves of strange things, hens do not lay long eggs – instead regular eggs are put through a series of processes until the long egg is produced.

According to this odd but strangely mesmerising video on Diply, the eggs are washed, cracked and separated by machines before the whites are cooked in a mould which has a hole in its centre.

The yolks are then injected back into the middle of the mould so they look more like regular eggs.

If any less than perfect looking eggs arrive at the production line’s end, quality inspectors grab them and remove the ugly bits to ensure the long eggs look picture perfect.

Thank you, Internet!

James Corden might be best known for his karaoke skills, but last night the comedian proved he also knows his way around a race track as he competed with former Friends star, Matt LeBlanc, in the “Bottom Gear” challenge.

With lilac children’s scooters as their vehicles of choice, the two TV personalities went toe-to-toe as they raced over bumps, through walls and around the Late Late Show studio with comical results.

In the end LeBlanc’s Top Gear experience gave him the edge as he bet the show’s host back to the finish line.

Ladies, check this one out!

Kylie Jenner is now adding lip glosses into her ever-expanding make-up line, and to celebrate it she made the most bizarre video.

Giving us all the 90's Britney vibes, the beauty mogul is seen sitting back in a open top Rolls Royce while sporting a Louis Vuitton bandana (which we literally haven't wore since we were about… 12).

She also arrives at a random motel and texts her friends "gametime" before trying to stage an armed robbery… Huh?

It's a strange one indeed, and what put the idea into her head, we don't know but, it really has to be seen to be believed.

One mother did not hold back when describing the moment a sales assistant criticised the body shape of her young daughter in a viral Facebook post. 

The angry mum-on-a-mission describes how a simple shopping trip with her teenage daughter for a new dress ended in tears. 

It seems that the rude shop assistant did not think the teen could pull off a figure hugging gown without some extra help. 

Dear sales lady at Dillard's Towne East Mall, This is my teenage daughter who wanted to try on dresses for an upcoming…

Posted by Megan Naramore Harris on Wednesday, January 20, 2016

 

"You entered and told my daughter she needed to wear SPANX if she wanted to wear this dress," said the post aimed at the shop assistant in question. 

"I told my daughter to go change. I told you that she was just fine without SPANX. You continued to argue with me. We left soon after."

The post has already garnered over 450 thousand reactions as well as international media attention and the message of the post is pretty clear. 

"Girls of all ages, shapes and sizes are perfect. If they feel good in a dress, that is all that should matter.

"I hope this is shared and gets back to you so that you should not say something like that to a girl ever again. You never know what negative or positive thoughts they are thinking about themselves."

Hear hear!

Ah, young love. We all had crushes throughout our teen years, and many of us found our first loves walking around the corridors of school.

Fast forward a few years later and it's safe to say that many of us have taken a sneaky peak into what our old school crushes are up to these days (thanks social media).

So, when writer Marian Bull came across the boy she was in love with in school, she couldn't help but notice he was in a new relationship.

Her housemate filmed her talking about the new girl and how pretty she is, but we can all admit that we've been there! Especially when she says, "I'm sure she's a really nice person."

We all know we go to ridiculous lengths to get a good Instagram photo. 

But sometimes our boyfriends and husbands are behind those IG photos, and unfortunately for them (but very fortunate for us), they have come to the realisation that they are, indeed, the Instagram Husband. 

They are our human selfie sticks (because their arms are waaay longer than ours) and they're totally cool with waiting to eat their food just so we can take a good photo for IG. 

A new gas video by The Mystery Hour has been released about the men behind the filter and in its mockumentary style, it's certainly worth a watch:

Pizza is a great thing! People love pizza so much they created perfectly pizza slice shaped pockets to carry it around with them wherever they go.

Cold pizza might not be the thing that dreams are made of, but you can't deny this is a sign that our collective obsession with the food is here to stay. 

Unfortunately too much of it can be a not so great thing, as much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise.

We often hear people saying that they’re trying to cut out the amount of carbs they consume. What they should be more concerned about is eating the right type of carbohydrates.

So, if you are trying to leave the stodgy carbs behind but have suddenly become consumed by cravings do not fear. 

We found the exact recipe you need.

This pizza has a quinoa crust that is high in protein and fibre, and is also naturally gluten free. So next time you start lusting after some takeaway pizza, you will know what to do. 

Ingredients

3/4 cup uncooked quinoa
1/4 cup water, plus more for soaking quinoa
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
Cooking spray

Method

Place the quinoa in a small bowl and cover it with water. Let the quinoa soak overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain and thoroughly rinse the quinoa (this will prevent any bitterness in the crust). Place the quinoa, 1/4 cup water, baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Process until a smooth batter is formed, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the food processor as necessary. 

Line an 8 or 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and then spray the parchment paper with cooking spray. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth.

Bake the crust for 15 minutes at 220 degrees. Remove the parchment paper from under the crust.Flip the crust over and return to the oven for 5-10 more minutes, or until golden and the edges are crispy.

Remove from the oven and add sauce, cheese, and toppings of your choice. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes,so the cheese is melted and delicious

Cut the pizza into four wedges (or just one giant slice) and enjoy!

Ruairi McSorley became an internet sensation after he was interviewed in January during a particularly cold morning in his native Derry.

His line: “You wouldn’t be long getting frostbit” was repeated up and down the country (and further afield) for months after his TV appearance. Now, he is back and better than ever.

It seems that Ruairi has relocated to Connemara to study media and Irish. To nobody’s surprise, he had been told many times that a career in media would be in his future.

Naturally, he’s decided to make a go of it, and with his latest interview as Gaeilge we foresee a bright future.

As for the local scene in Co. Galway; the “sean-nos” dancing is not exactly his favourite way to spend a Saturday night.

However, he does say “is maith liom an jiving”. Please, someone consider an entire series of videos of Ruair’s jiving adventures. It is the reality series we desperately need.

Does he have any plans if a career in media doesn’t work out?

“There’ll be turf to cut somewhere.”

Ah yes, we are all familiar with the feeling when mammy is on the way home and you remember you haven't taken that chicken out of the freezer. 

Oops. 

It is exactly this time of year when that feeling kicks into high gear. Not just because of the forgotten pile of ironing with your name on it. Remember how it felt around the house when the visitors were coming?

OUR NERVES! They would be at you for fear you would eat something from the fridge that was exclusively for the visitors arriving on St. Stephen's Day. 

Oh and good luck to you if you traipsed into the 'good room' with your mildly dirty shoes on. 

This video pretty much perfectly captures the stress of it all, and it is hilarious:
