We're not even sure how we feel about this, ladies. 

In a new video by Kourtney Kardashian, she shows us how to… eat a Kit Kat. Yep… a Kit Kat.

The reality star breaks it down into six steps, and while we know everyone has their quirks, we're not sure this is enough to make a video out of. 

We think we're just going to sit back and eat our chocolate bars like normal people, thanks.

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."

In this day and age, virtual reality is second nature to some people as it consumes most of today's popular video games.

But unsurprisingly, grandmothers and grandfathers aren't so used to it. 

So, one Youtuber, Mark Nutt, decided to hook his granny up with a cardboard VR device and the result is absolutely hilarious.

We're getting our own ideas of hooking our grandparents up to one of these too now!

We all love Christmas dinner, but sometimes the same old thing every single year can get a bit boring. 

If you're having guests over this Christmas and want to spice things up a bit, then try this carrot trick to mind-boggle your friends and family. 

Not only will it look super cool on the plate, after a few drinks you can give them the chance to try it themselves.

And believe us, after a second helping of mulled wine, their carrots will end up looking like a dog savagely ate it. 

So, now you have a new dinner staple and party trick. Win win!

People watch YouTube videos for hours upon hours everyday. And if you're a regular YouTube watcher on you laptop, there's a handy way to speed things up a little… or slow them down.

Yep, there's a speed button on the bottom right hand corner of the video, which allows you to choose whether you want to make your YouTube videos go a little bit faster or slower. 

The former is quite handy if you just want to speed through videos and get to the good parts without skipping over the entire video. And the latter is great if you need to look out for something and don't want to miss it.

On the settings button at the bottom right-hand corner of the player, you will see speed as its third option. Clicking it will give you the option to slow it down to 0.25x or 0.5x or increase the speed to 1.25x, 1.5x and 2x.

Slowing it down is also quite handy if you need to take a screen grab!

YouTube is great, but sometimes unnecessary videos show up on your homepage that you wish you could just get rid off. 

Yes, we can select our preferences but all in all, we wish something could just be solely dedicated to us, right? 

Well, children are now getting that privilege as YouTube has just launched a kids version in Ireland. 

The YouTube Kids app launched nine months ago in America and after major success, it is being unveiled in Ireland and the UK today.

The app, which has programmes specifically targeting pre-school and primary school students, divides videos into four handy categories: shows, music, learning and explore. 

The shows come from the likes of Peppa Pig and National Geographic Kids, and it will also feature videos by Irish authors such as Scott Swetak and his Mad About Lego channel.

It also comes with a really easy interface to use and youngsters will be able to search for videos using their voice. 

We don't know about you, but we'd love something so easy and handy to watch our favourite videos on. We're sure parents are gong to be delighted with this one!

We all know Irish people love nothing more than a lovely potato in our dinner, but getting them ready isn't always the easiest and can often be a pain in the backside.

Whether you choose to peel them pre- or post-boil, it's only a long and painstaking process that nobody really wants to do.

But now YouTube channel, Foody Tube, that posts handy cooking tutorials, shared their latest video called Amazing Potato Peeling Trick that will make you change the way you peel spuds forever.

This may be a game changer, ladies.

Have you ever been jealous of Selena Gomez's long, shiny and bouncy hair? Because we have!

In fact, it's so shampoo-advert perfect, she's actually modelled in shampoo campaigns.

Now, most celebrities would never admit to having extensions or weaves – but Selena is honest about hers and shrugs it off as no big deal.

The Revival singer was hanging out with YouTuber Lilly Singh to film a cute Newly Friend Game video, when she mentioned the story behind her long, dark hair.

Selena complimented Lilly on her "humour and heart," which then prompted a sweet conversation.

"That's like a real compliment," Lilly said. "It's not about my hair. That's the first time a compliment isn't about my hair."

"You do have beautiful hair," Selena responded.

"Yeah, and by the way, it's not fake. Can you just pull this real quick?" Lilly asked, leaning in so Selena can check her waist-length locks.

"Wait, I got to check for a weave," Selena said, testing Lilly's hair with a tug. "Yeah, it's so nice. Mine, however, is very fake."

Very candid, Selena!

Skip ahead to 7.20 if you want to hear her fake hair story or watch the full video, because it's actually really sweet:

Two very brave men signed up to a Buzzfeed challenge were they were willing to let their girlfriends remove all their hair *down there* with hot wax on camera.

You're feeling sorry for these two men already, right?

“I think it’s necessary for guys to realise what we go through for grooming purposes,” Jenny says in the video, before waxing her new boyfriend of two months, Trevor. Way to start your relationship, guys!

But on the other hand, Becky says, “I think it’s going to be less painful than you think it’s going to be,” to her boyfriend of three years, Corey.

Watch the video to find out how Trevor and Corey really got on:

Charlotte from Geordie Shore has launched a YouTube channel for footage 'they wouldn't dare show on TV.' 

Considering the type of carnage the cast of Geordie Shore seem to get up to every time they have a night out, we're thinking this could be an interesting venture. 

Not bad when you take into account the most outrageous video she's posted (so far) was her attempt at the cinnamon challenge. 

The channel, features video blogs about her book tour and YouTube challenges, has already racked up over 50,000 subscribers. She's also used it to introduce her love to the internet.

No no, it's not a new guy she has on the go. Baby is actually her Pomeranian who is admittedly quite adorable and sure to be a YouTube sensation.

We would be quite interested to see if Charlotte might give us more of an insight into her social life. Especially since she looked like she had a great night at the launch of Made In Chelsea star Binky Felstead's debut fashion range for In the Style. 

She and her new reality TV star boyfriend Max Morley looked cozy as they posed for photos inside the party. 

Never one to miss out on the fun though, Charlotte seemed to have pretty much ditched Max in favour of busting out some quality moves on the dance floor. 

Meanwhile, on YouTube, Charlotte shows fans what is in the top drawer of her chest of drawers- because that's Charlotte for you.

Please don't ever change Charlotte.

Around here we really do enjoy a good celebrity throwback. 

This week, we were very intrigued when a clip showed up on Instagram that showed Emma as an angsty teenager giving a fabulous rendition of Bitch on a VH1 series from 2004. 

We all know her as the actress who always knows how to make us laugh, cry, and everything in between. She’s an incredibly talented actress that just scored a 2015 Oscar nomination for her stellar performance in Birdman. She has also inspired some of the internets absolute favourite GIFs.

But did you know how exactly she got her start in Hollywood?

Apparently, it all started on In Search of the Partridge Family, a VH1 reality series that was searching for people to star in a TV series called The New Partridge Family. Emma did go on to win a role on the aforementioned show, and she did got to show off her singing skills with her performance of Bitch.

Things were so good, in fact, that Emma Stone, who used to go by Emily, was on a VH1 reality show called In Search of the Partridge Family.

Let us never forget the era of tan leather pants and Emma Stone being a reality TV star.

Oh, and then she won the show (obviously because her rendition of
