As Ed Sheeran turns 25, we chart the oh-so-adorable ways in which we love the sweet ginger-haired star

Light the candles and get ready to SING – because it’s Ed Sheeran‘s birthday!

The Thinking Out Loud superstar turns 25 today, and in just a quarter of a century he’s achieved more than we could even dream of, including his album X going six-times platinum, a sell-out tour and – just this week – a Grammy award.

But even though he’s one of the biggest music stars in the world, Ed is still as adorable as ever. Here’s 9 ways in which he is just the absolute CUTEST…

1. He loves cats

Ed’s own cat, Graham – who he saved from being put down (HERO) – often features in the star’s Instagram posts, and has a Twitter account with 79k followers. Sure.

Ed’s love of moggies also saw him taking a cat onstage with him whilst presenting an award at the Much Music video awards in Canada last year, giving cheeky Ed the chance to deliver the line: ‘I love this pussy. It’s amazing.’ Oh Ed!

2. He made ginger sexy

Ed and his ginger mop have blazed a trail (as it were) for carrot-tops everywhere, and he’s proud of his achievement.

‘There are a lot of ginger dudes in England who are using me,’ he’s said. ‘That’s why I’m not hating on it. You know what, we’re finally getting laid! This is a good thing. There are loads of ginger people in England who are smashing it and having a lot of fun.’

3. He loves to play wedding singer

Sure, he’s played at the weddings of stars including Frank Lampard and Ronan Keating – but Ed isn’t above giving ‘regular folk’ a wedding day they’ll never forget.

The big-hearted singer surprised an Aussie couple back in when he dropped in on their wedding reception and crooned his hit Thinking Out Loud as the stunned newlyweds took to the floor for their first dance. Aww!

4. Him and Taylor Swift are #FriendshipGoals

BFFs Ed and Tay are just ADORABLE. They bake apple pies. They write beautiful music. They even text in RHYME, for pete’s sake!

5. He’s as big a GOT geek as we are

Ed is a major Game of Thrones fan – so he totally lost his chill when a radio station presented him with  a replica of Jon Snow’s sword. Bless!

6. He stands up for weird kids everywhere

Being a kid can be tough, as Ed knows only too well.

Confessing to having been a ‘very weird kid’ thanks to a birthmark on his face, a stutter and big ol’ NHS glasses, the star had some inspiring words of advice for any youngsters struggling with being different, saying: ‘Just be yourself, embrace your quirks – being weird is a wonderful thing.’

Hear, hear!

7. He once opened a care home

Yes, you read that right. Back in October, Ed took time out of his busy schedule to make the residents of Mills Meadow Care Home very happy by cutting the ribbon on the home’s new suite, named The Sheeran Suite. What. A. Guy.

8. He gives his fans big love

Forget signing a few autographs – Ed goes above and beyond for his adoring fans. From shocking one by joining them on stage as they performed in a singing contest to agreeing to ‘marry’ cancer-stricken Katie Papworth (below) whose dying wish was to be his wife, lovely Ed likes to go the extra mile.

9. He’s a model houseguest 

When Ed stayed at Friends actress Courtney Cox‘s pad for a few months back in 2013 (true story), he made sure he earned his keep, saying: ‘There was no rent but I made the bed and cups of teas and things like that.’

You can stay over at ours any time you like, Ed!

Reigning champ as the King of Cool

Brooklyn Beckham has ditched just being the coolest teenager ever and jumped on the cool-geek train in his latest outing with girlfriend Sonia Ben Ammar.

The son to footballer David and fashion-maestro Victoria Beckham attended the Universal Music Grammys after party in LA on Monday with a whole bunch of celeb pals.

Rocking some major specs (has he finally reached the hipster stage?), he braved the red carpet alone before meeting Sonia inside.

Eagle-eyed fans spotted that Brooklyn was wearing the same Louis Vuitton shirt as none other than Zayn Malik.

Could he be taking fashion advice from One Direction? He is wearing glasses like Niall Horan…

The couple appeared on social media separately, raising suspicions that they were not trying to be photographed together.

Sonia, a French actress and singer, posted a pic with Randy Jackson and captioned it, ‘Fun night at the Grammys!!!’

Brooklyn Beckham just shared a group snap titled ‘Fun night’, tagging in American Football player Odell Beckham Jr. (no relation), singer Hailee Steinfield, and model Zendaya.

If the lip filler controversy taught us anything, it’s that Kylie Jenner takes great pride in her appearance! But in terms of who would looks after that incredible famous face, the youngest of the Kardashian Klan went down a different route

Kylie Jenner‘s face is looked at by over 50 million people per day. That’s ALOT of people. But we can reveal the 18-year-old didn’t go down the conventional route when picking a make-up artist – she found him on Instagram! Yes, really.

Kylie – who’s famous for her dramatic make-up looks (and THOSE lips) gave the coveted job to a virtual unknown guy called Ariel Tejada and the 20-year-old has been responsible for her contoured glow ever since.

Speaking to Allure magazine, Ariel described the moment Kylie got in touch with a number. She sent him a message saying, ‘Look, whenever you’re in L.A., I want to work with you, let me know.’

Ariel explained: ‘I was traveling when I saw the message, and [I didn’t reply until] 14 minutes later, so I was like, this is late! I’m not going to get a reply back! I messaged her back, “I’m available whenever. I’ll fly out tomorrow if I have to.”‘ But while we all know that Kylie spends most of her life on her phone Ariel didn’t get a reply for three days.

‘My anxiety was next-level’ Ariel  admitted. But when Kylie finally replied, he said he would be in L.A. the next week. Then more time went by without a reply from Kylie. She finally text him asking for help with make-up for an event she was going to. Ariel went over to her house and said that ‘it was the most welcoming hello. She hugged me as if we had known each other forever. We glammed, and we made magic. She loved it. She couldn’t stop staring at herself in the mirror.’

Ariel explained since that first meeting the pair have worked as a team. ‘When I finish the make-up, and she’s added her touches, and I’ve added my signature stamp on the look, it becomes this explosion of the two of us mixed together.’

So, what products does Ariel use on Kylie? Here a top five, and yes you can buy them all in the UK…

1. Nars Lip Liner in Morocco, £16.50
2. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation, £35.50
3. Benefit They’re Real! Push-up Eyeliner in Beyond Black, £18.50

Happy Valley star Katherine Kelly talks to Now's Amy Brookbanks about why she won't be returning to the soap that made her famous

Katherine Kelly has exclusively admitted to Now that she doesn’t see Coronation Street in her future.

After a year off work following the birth of her daughter, Orla, 2, the 36-year-old actress has burst back onto our screens in a pretty big way. Stealing the show in no less than three of our favourite programmes; playing Baroness Elsa Schrader in ITV’s live broadcast of The Sound of Music at Christmas, Lady Mae Loxley (now known as Lady Mae Rennard) in the fourth series of period drama Mr Selfridge and most recently in the second series of BBC1’s hit drama Happy Valley. Refreshingly though, Katherine, 36, who may appear to be a workaholic, is anything but. Here, the yummy mummy, married to her boxer beau Ryan Clark, reveals it’s family that will always come first and why she won’t be returning to the soap that made her famous…

Hi Katherine! You’re never off our screens at the moment! How do you find time for you? 

Well I had a year off which I did on purpose; I wanted a year maternity leave – I just felt like that was right for us. I went straight to Rada at 18 and have never had a break, which I am incredibly grateful for, but I never had a year out or anything so I just thought, ‘I’m going to enjoy just being a mum.’

We’re loving Happy Valley! Did you have to go through any special training to shoot scenes?

Yeah it was brilliant! We went to Halifax and worked with the inspectors. What I love about Happy Valley is that it’s just so detailed. When we did our CID training, they said that it was the closest you’re ever going to see on television to what really happens and it’s such a compliment.

Do you fancy a change in career now?

Oh no! It’s really, really, hard what they see and what they deal with. I don’t know how they do it, really. Also, the thing that struck me the most was how few policemen there are these days – we all know that there’s a lot of government cuts but I thought that it was a holiday or something but they just said ‘no it’s cut backs,’ which is frightening. People should know how much funding has been taken away from the police. I think it would frighten a lot of people because it certainly frightened me.

Who are you closest to on-set?

Sarah Lancashire is amazing, she’s just such a national treasure, so professional and so much fun as well. She’s so intelligent and just really great to be around.

Do you reminisce about Coronation Street together?

Well, no not really because we weren’t in it together. It’s almost like if you went to Leeds University and then you meet someone who was at Leeds University ten years before, you know, it’s kind of not really a subject that you kind of bother with. That is literally what it’s like.

Do you still watch it at all?

Do you know? I haven’t watched it for ages! The thing is, 7.30pm is my daughter’s bedtime. I’ve tried to watch the live shows but I’ve found it too nerve-wracking. I’m still very much in touch with everybody like Paula, Jenny and Ryan Thomas, they all came to the birthday parties we had this year. I’m always texting Ali King and Antony Cotton comes and stays over. They’re life-long friends, like family in many ways, so I don’t feel the need to watch it so much when I’m so in touch with everybody like I am. I don’t even know half of the characters!

Would you ever go back Corrie?

The only thing that would worry me about going back to Corrie is I absolutely loved it so much. I was there for four and half years and it was one of the best times of my life. I’d be worried that going back to it, it wouldn’t be the same. A lot of people have left and they’re filming at a completely different place now. I would worry that I wouldn’t want anything to spoil that. If you think back to holidays that you went on and go ‘oh my God it’s so amazing there’ and when you go back it’s not quite the same! I just sort of want to preserve it. With Corrie you’ve got to just keep going and going but now I’m a mum I want to be able to say ‘no we’re going on holiday.’ It would be hard to give that freedom up again.

Kristina Rihanoff is not happy with the daytime chat show

Kristina Rihanoff has attacked daytime chat show Loose Women in a venomous Twitter rant, branding them ‘pathetic.’

The dancer took to Twitter accusing the show of talking behind her back and asking her on at the same time.

She tweeted: ‘Funny how @loosewomen raising their fee every time they ask me to come on their show and when I ignore them they talk about me! #parhetic [sic.]’ with a crying-laughing emoji.

READ THE LATEST CELEBRITY NEWS

Loose Women discusses topical issues that affect every day women, including pregnancy. Yesterday saw the panelists discussing drinking while pregnant as Kristina was spotted in Austria sipping from a champagne glass.

As a celebrity, Kristina Rihanoff has entered the discussion as she announced in the Celebrity Big Brother house that she was pregnant from ex-rugby player boyfriend Ben Cohen.

The Loose Women panelists discussed last month whether it was right for Kristina Rihanoff to announce her pregnancy on reality TV.

Journalist Jane Moore said: ‘She came on this show and talked about press intrusion, so for me it was a very odd thing to do from someone who doesn’t want people looking into their private lives, to announce something that is quite private on reality television show.’

It’s all very tense! We’re supposed to watch Loose Women with a cup of tea. Speaking of which…

Talented, versatile AND hilarious - Room star Brie is our new girl crush!

Brie Larson is one of the bookies’ favourites to win at the Oscars 2016, having been scooping awards left right and centre for her critically acclaimed performance in Room.

And now the Best Actress nominee has become one of our favourites too as it turns out that, as well as being an awesome actress, she’s also an all-round cool person too.

READ MORE CELEB NEWS

Intrigued? You should be! Here’s everything you need to know about 26-year-old Brie, a lady who we’re going to be hearing a hell of a lot more about:

She’s not really called Brie Larson

Okay, so she’s still Brie (short for Brianne), but her real surname is actually Desaulniers. She changed it to Larson, her great-grandmother’s maiden name, as it was easier to pronounce.

She was a child star

Brie might not be that well known by some yet she’s actually a veteran of the entertainment business. The California-born star started acting as a child and had early roles in hit series Raising Dad as well as Disney TV movie Right On Track and the film 13 Going On 30.

She’s very multi-talented

As well as acting Brie became known as a singer and released an album, Finally Out Of P.E., in 2005. Which actually featured a tune of the same name all about getting a C to – you guessed it – get out of P.E. Amazing.

She’s hilarious on social media

Brie might be a serious actress but she sure knows how to tickle our funny bone on Twitter and Instagram. Whether it’s an embarrassing throwback, a witty caption or just a bonkers pose, she always keeps us entertained. Like with this:

And this:

She danced about dressed as a man with Kristen Stewart and Anne Hathaway

Yep, it’s as random as it sounds. Brie starred with Kristen and Anne in the 2014 music video for singer Jenny Lewis’ track Just One Of The Guys. This involved them all donning drag – complete with dodgy tracksuits and LOLs moustaches – and then doing some hilare dance moves.

She’s dating the guy who sang The OC theme

Brie is loved-up with singer Alex Greenwald, who’s better known as the lead singer of Phantom Planet. That’s the band who performed California, the opening tune to The OC. Brie says he’s her ‘best friend’ – awww.

She has the same insecurities as the rest of us

When she collected her Screen Actors Guild Award in January, Brie confessed in her moving acceptance speech that she’d ‘always worried’ that she was ‘deeply unlovable’. Brie admitted she’s realised that her own insecurities, ‘are actually everybody’s. And that makes me feel so relieved and so happy to be a human.’

She’s winning A LOT of awards for Room

Brie has wowed the critics with her performance as Ma in Room, a drama telling the story of a woman and her young son who are being held captive in an enclosed space. She’s already scooped a BAFTA, a Golden Globe and a Critics’ Choice Movie Award – but will she add the coveted Oscar to that list? Fingers crossed!

The Voice UK viewers were pretty smitten with this one...

Those who tuned into The Voice UK on Saturday night will most likely remember a blonde-haired rocker turning up for the auditions. Rick Snowdon’s raspy vocals electrified the judges and the audience alike, and he made it through to the next round with no difficulty.

But it wasn’t just his vocals that were impressive – the incredible story of his 13 stone weight loss, paired with his current Thor-esque looks made him the talk of social media for days!

During an appearance on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday, he revealed that all this attention has come as something of a surprise.

When co-anchors Kate Garraway and Charlotte Hawkins asked him how he felt about this new attention, he replied humbly: ‘I didn’t expect that, I’m not complaining!’

‘It went nuts. The feedback from men and women has been incredible.’

At age 22, Rick weighed 26 stone and found it difficult leaving the house. He admitted on Saturday’s show that it was his love of music inspired him to shed the pounds, get healthy and try to make a go of it as a singer – it took him four years, and he’s looking great!

Continuing to address all the attention, 29-year-old Rick responded: ‘It was a good thing, I didn’t ever want to be have the focus on [my weight loss] – I’m proud to have overcome it, but I wanted the focus to be on being a singer, entirely.’

In just four days, the video of his audition has racked up more than 330,000 views on YouTube, and hundreds of admiring comments such as: ‘Wow Rick…you can put a spell on me anytime!’

Us too, Rick – us too.

Noel has discovered some, erm, 'evidence' in Russell's car

Russell Brand has worn a lot of hats during his time in the public eye – comedian, TV presenter and most recently political revolutionary. But according to Noel Gallagher, there may be some other, darker parts to Russell’s personality that we could have never imagined…

Noel opened up about a recent car ride he shared with pal Russell – and the discovery of a particular item caused him to question whether he had ‘serial killer’ tendencies.

Read: The incredible 13st weight-loss of THIS The Voice star has made him a heartthrob

Read: More Celebrity News!

Broadcast during his special show on Absolute Radio, Noel began the story: ‘I spent the day with him recently. He took me to see a match a couple of weeks ago.

Noel Gallagher

‘He drove us from the house in Maida Vale to West Ham which is the other side of the river. It was brilliant. I never get him in a car for more than five minutes. I was in the Range Rover with him… I always find it weird that under the sun visors he has wet wipes.

‘Now, that’s serial killer gear that innit? The wet wipes. If you have ever seen Making A Murderer, you’ll understand what the wet wipes thing is.’

‘Who has wet wipes in the car? What are you doing in there?’

Referring to the Netflix crime sensation, Noel’s implying that the use of wet wipes can help to cover up evidence – and seeing as Russell has the same in his car, does this reveal him to be capable of unthinkable crimes?!

Erm, somehow, we don’t think so.

Are wet wipes that much of a strange glove compartment fixture, Noel? Granted, there doesn’t seem to be any babies to mop up in Russell’s life, but perhaps Russell’s just a very hygienic guy?

If wet wipes are the worst thing to be found in Russell’s ride, then we think that’s probably cause for celebration!

We cannot even handle these pictures of Tom Cruise....

Wait did we miss something? Were Tom Cruise and Radio 4 presented Sandi Toksvig separated at birth?

Just check out this photo…

We can’t help but stare. And it’s no wonder, the resemblance is uncanny!

This clever guy also did some fancy photoshop work and this happened…

Recently Tom’s face has been under fire after he appeared at the BAFTA’s looking ‘bloated’, ‘stretched’ and ‘frozen’.

Fans took to Twitter, as they do, to discuss Tom’s 53-year-old looks and they didn’t hold back.

Another added: ‘Tom Cruise looks like he’s had his face inflated.’

While others went as far as to compare him to terrifying film characters.

Erm….

Terrifying!

Now, after this comparison to Sandi – fans are drawing other conclusions.

WHAT HAS ELLIE GOULDING DONE TO HER FACE?

So what has Tom done to his face?

One thing is for sure, we miss this look…

Little Mix want to perform with the Spice Girls to mark their 20th anniversary. YES PLEASE!

We’re crossing all our fingers and toes for a Little Mix and Spice Girls collaboration today, after the X-Factor-formed girlband revealed they’d love to perform with the 90s band in honour of their 20th anniversary.

Now that would crank the girl power up to eleven!

It’s 20 years this July since the Spices dropped debut mega-hit Wannabe on us, and the Little Mix gals – Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock – would love nothing more than to help the 90s girl band mark the occasion.

‘We want to perform with them,’ Leigh-Anne told Digital Spy. ‘That’s our dream. ​It would be great to do it with all of them.​’

‘It would be amazing,’ Jade chipped in, with Perrie adding: ‘Fangirl central!’

Nothing has officially been announced by Team Spice regarding their 20th anniversary celebrations, but we’re pretty sure that they’ve got something major up Mel C’s tracksuit sleeve.

Mel B seems particularly keen to slip into her Scary Spice leopard print again, having hinted that she wants the reunion to happen on various occasions.

But one person who looks to be playing party pooper is Victoria Beckham.

Posh is apparently ‘too busy’ running her super-successful fashion line to hook-up with her fellow Spices to mark their 20th year.

Ah, come on Victoria – Say You’ll Be There!

Spice Girl fangirling aside, Little Mix are busy preparing for their much-anticipated performance at the BRIT Awards, which takes place on 24th February.

Their UK tour also kicks off on 13th March in Cardiff, and it sounds as though things could get pretty wild after Perrie vowed: ‘I’m going to be naughty on this tour.’

Oooh! We think the Spice Girls would definitely approve of such behaviour.

The award for the best response to Kanye Twitter gate goes to erm, Pizza Hut!

Of all the many responses to Kanye West‘s recent Twitter meltdown, an unlikely source reigns supreme (get it?) as the king of banter, and that’s hangover curing giant, Pizza Hut. They shut down Kanye is the absolute BEST way, and we can’t even deal with it.

When Kanye begged Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg to give him some dollar to get him out of his apperent $53 million debt, Pizza Hut offered him a job at their company.

Mocking up a CV mirroring the style of the artwork for his latest album The Life of Pablo, they imagined references and skills Kanye would boast if he were to go for the job.

READ MORE CELEBRITY NEWS

They even addressed the recent reignition of the Taylor Swift and Kanye GRAMMY’S beef, by including Swifty as a reference, then putting a giant line through her name – giving us mega lols.

Ah, so many pizza puns, so little time. Well played Pizza Hut. Shame they changed their mind about hiring him, we can totally see him serving up some cheesy bites.

Unless you’ve been hiding in Narnia or living under a rock, you’ll know that they are of course refering to Yeezy’s recent mother of all Twitter rants.

His many bizarre (yet entertaining) musings also included referencing Bill Cosby, and declaring himself as the new Disney.

But Pizza Hut weren’t the only ones to respond to Mr. West’s epic twitter moment – it seems there’s nothing like a huge Twitter meltdown to bring the internet together. Here are some of our fave responses:

Even politician John Prescott bought the bants – we LOVE this burn:

Oh Kanye, chill babe. With such support from the twittersphere, you’ll be out of that debt in no time. Or there’s always the option of Magic Freebies, which has set up a page offering all the essentials free of charge, including calming tea – which perhaps he could do with right now…

Who wears the Sia wig best?

Though we were so sad to lose James Corden to the USA, the best thing about his relocation is that now we get all these Carpool Karaoke videos. From Adele to Justin Bieber, we’ve seen some of the biggest stars sit down with JC and have a good ol’ sing-song – and it’s brilliant.

The latest to appear in James’ passenger seat is singer-songwriter Sia – and she put on one heck of a show!

More: Is this Justin Bieber’s best Carpool Karaoke yet?

Read: More Celebrity News

Appearing with her trademark face-covering fringe the video begins with her trying and failing to see through her hair to get to the car. Luckily, she manages to find her way with James’ help – and then all the musical fun begins.

The first track on James’ playlist: Chandelier, aka that song you’ve hurt your throat on, trying to reach those high notes…

However, Sia reached right up there with ease – and James wasn’t half bad himself!

Later on in the video, they reach the topic of her quirky hairdo, styled with a massive black bow with half her bob dyed black, and the other an icy blonde tone.

(We actually think it’s quite a fabulous look.)

Though for Sia, having her hair covering up everything but her lips is not her everyday look: ‘I only wear this to maintain a modicum of privacy’.

Well, that’s sure one way to go about it!

Watch: Elton John’s carpool karaoke

The pair also took on Rihanna’s hit Diamonds – which was written by Sia herself – Elastic Heart  and Titanium, and eventually James gets a Sia wig of his own.

‘It’s like a head hug!’ an excited Sia exclaims.

Other conversations include alien life, Sia’s singing past and live party tricks involving eggs. Happy viewing!

Simon Cowell gets bumped off in Ant & Dec's new mini-series for Saturday Night Takeaway - but whodunnit!?

From X Factor hopefuls to TV colleagues, we imagine there’s no end to people who’ve thought at some point in their lives, ‘God, I could murder Simon Cowell!’

And it’s this very fact that Ant & Dec have drawn on for a spoof whodunnit that is set to run in the new series of Saturday Night Takeaway.

Titled Who Shot Simon Cowell?, the hilarious mini-series will follow the spoof murder of telly’s harshest critic – and slowly but surely uncover who committed the dastardly dead!

Takeout co-host Ashley Roberts discussed the segment on this morning’s Lorraine, saying it was ‘a fun little thing we shot lots of different endings for – it’s very top secret and will be revealed every week.’

Ooh, intriguing!

A sneak peek at the spoof was then unveiled, and it really does look like it’s going to be lots of fun!

The first instalment sees Simon standing a-top a grand staircase as some of a glitzy group of his showbiz friends – including Olly Murs, Caroline Flack, Alesha Dixon, Louis Walsh, Amanda Holden, and Ant & Dec themselves – sing happy birthday to him.

However, in true Simon style, he soon cuts them off and blasts: ‘That is so obvious. Second song?’

As the guests looked around nervously, the lights go out and a shot is heard – yikes!

And when the lights come back on, Simon is seen clutching his chest before taking a dramatic tumble down the stairs and landing slap-bang in front of the crowd of famous faces.

At that point, Si’s close pal and former girlfriend Sinitta comes barrelign through the crowd (dressed, brilliantly, in her X Factor palm leaf outfit) and declares: ‘Someone’s shot Simon Cowell!’

Christopher Biggins then chimes in: ‘We know dear, we all saw it!’

Whispers are also swirling after Kaley Cuoco was snapped leaving the celeb-filled ceremony with a hunky man – ooh!

The actress – who plays Penny in hit sitcom The Big Bang Theory – was spotted making a sharp getaway with musician Sam Hunt, with sources saying the chemistry between the pair was undeniable.

‘She was really happy, you can see it,’ an eyewitness told E! News.

‘It looked like they completely hit it off and were trying to downplay the flirtation as friendship but it was pretty undeniable.’

And with Kaley looking totally foxy in a white-hot jumpsuit, we’re not surprised!

Country music star Sam also caught our eye when he performed on the evening with fellow country star Carrie Underwood. Yep, he’s pretty hot too!

Kaley, 30, split from her husband, professional tennis player Ryan Sweeting, in September 2015 after less than two years of marriage.

Shortly after the split she was linked to her Big Bang Theory co-star Johnny Galecki, whom she previously dated for two years.

But Kaley quickly shut down any silly rumours by posting a pic of her giving her buddy Johnny a fist bump and saying: ‘So sorry to disappoint, but no home wreckers or secret flings going on here. Me and @sanctionedjohnnygalecki are jus the best of buds – Leonard and Penny will just have to suffice!!!’ She threw in a ton of heart emojis in there too or good measure.

Meanwhile, 31-year-old singer-songwriter has perviously spoken about his ideal woman, saying: ‘There aren’t really any specific qualities I have. I just have an open mind to a person that I will connect with in a very unique way.

‘I kind of like that I don’t know even know what those qualities are. It’s more about just an invisible connection that you can’t put your finger on.’

Could Sam and Kaley have that ‘invisible connection’? Only time will tell…

After several false starts, Zayn Malik finally made his debut TV performance as a solo artist last night – and it was pretty special.

The 23-year-old star gave a spine-tingling rendition of his new song It’s You on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in the States and also had a little surprise in store for fans.

Gigi Hadid declares love for Zayn Malik

Yep, not only did he totally kill it on stage but Zayn also revealed the cover for his upcoming album Mind Of Mine during the show and it’s kind of adorable.

It features a picture of a young Zayn giving a big smile (awww) and the tattoos on his arms have been added to the image.

Zayn had earlier warned his followers that there might be a little treat in store for them ahead of the appearance.

‘May have a surprise for you on the show tonight,’ the former One Direction star posted.

Not only has the unveiling of the album cover got fans talking but THAT incredible performance has pretty much sent Twitter into meltdown.

#ZAYNOnFallon started trending worldwide as Mr Malik’s fanbase shared their thoughts on social media – and it’s fair to say that the reaction was positive.

‘Can we all just marvel at #ZAYNOnFallon bc,’ one admirer wrote.

Another posted: ‘I just saw #ZAYNOnFallon it was beautiful. I love the new song @zaynmalik’

And this fan is struggling to deal with the cuteness of Zayn’s debut album artwork:

It’s no wonder Zayn’s rendition of It’s You was pretty emotional as the tune is said to be about his break-up with Perrie Edwards, who he split from last summer.

We’ll have to wait and see if the soulful tune is as big a hit as first single Pillowtalk, which reached No1 in 68 countires. Wowzers.

His album Mind Of Mine is set for release on 25 March – aka the anniversary of the day he announced he was leaving 1D last year. Awkward.

Watch Zayn’s performance below:

Impressive, right?

Uh-oh, Kanye admits that Kylie had already agreed a contract without his knowledge...

Kanye West famously blasted rumours that Kylie Jenner would become the face of Puma in one of his many Twitter rants earlier this month.

But now the rapper has been forced to do a very awkward u-turn as Kylie, 18, has now signed a deal – and had actually already done so when Yeezy hit out. Awks.

The best responses to Kanye West’s Twitter rants

Kanye has since reacted to the news by admitting that he was a bit irked about it.

‘She had already signed and I was mad for a little bit,’ the 38-year-old explains to TMZ.

Rather surprisingly though Yeezy hasn’t yet been on a new social media tirade about it and is actually pleased for Kylie.

‘I’m really happy for her,’ he adds. Blimey, is this the same Kanye West?

It comes just over a week after the music star slated speculation linking Kylie to Puma.

‘1000% there will never be a Kylie Puma anything. That’s on my family! 1000% Kylie is on Yeezy team!!!’ he Tweeted at the time.

‘Puma we gone give you your measly million dollars back!!! Never try to divide the family!!!’

And there was THIS:

Kylie has since confirmed this week that she WILL work with Puma though as an ‘advocate’ for the sportswear brand.

Adam Petrick, Puma’s global director of brand and marketing, tells Refinery29: ‘I am pleased and excited to be able to confirm that Puma is indeed working with Kylie Jenner.

‘Kylie represents a fresh and exciting new era for fashion, and we couldn’t think of a more fitting and influential female to headline this campaign for Puma.’

The lady herself has kept quiet about the news but will apparently star in her first Puma campaign in April.

Kanye might not be slating Kylie’s new deal on Twitter but he has been back on the social media site to post another rather baffling set of messages.

Last night Kim Kardashian’s man seemed reflective as he criticised his own statement about ‘taking the rap throne’ and said it’s no longer ‘sitting well’ with him.

He ended by sayingt:

*Sigh* We just can’t keep up with Kanye West these days.

Oli Sykes from rock band Bring Me The Horizon jumped onto Coldplay's table as the band were sat at it, smashing glasses and causing chaos

The lead singer of rock band Bring Me The Horizon made sure all eyes were on him at Wednesday night’s NME Awards – by TRASHING Coldplay‘s table!

Rocker Oli Sykes caused a commotion at the star-studded bash when he clambered onto the table where Chris Martin and co were sitting as her performed with his band, pretty much wrecking it in the process.

Singing the band’s track Happy Song, the rowdy singer kicked over glasses and bottles, with Coldplay guitarist Jonny Buckland having to move out of the way to avoid the carnage whilst the rest of the group sat motionless watching the singer do his thing.

With Oli giving a super-energetic performance, the table soon COLLAPSED under his weight, sending everything sliding towards the floor, as the singer gave a dramatic leap away from  the wreckage.

And, whilst Coldplay picked up the Godlike Genius award on the night, it was Oli who gained godlike status on Twitter, with users LOVING his table-trashing work.

‘Am I the only one who wants to give oli sykes a high five for breaking coldplays table?’ one wrote.

Another added: ‘Oli Sykes not only threw shade at Coldplay, he threw himself at them. Literally.’

A third posted, ‘Hats off to Oli Sykes for trashing Coldplay’s table at the #NMEAwards THATS what award ceremonies and rock is about!’, whilst someone else said: ‘Oli Sykes breaking coldplays table at the nme awards is my favourite thing.’

But if you think Chris Martin would be miffed about the waste of perfectly good champagne, think again.

All that yoga he does has clearly made him totally zen, as he told NME reporters after the incident: ‘It was great, very rock ‘n’ roll.’

Earlier in the evening, Bring Me The Horizon won the NME Innovation Award and they kept their acceptance speech short and sweet, with drummer Matthew Nicholls saying: ‘We’re not one for making words. Thanks NME.’

Meanwhile, Sykes simply gave the thumbs up. Clearly they were planning on letting their performance do the talking…

NME’s editor called awarding the Sheffield rock band a ‘no-brainer’, saying: ‘Their live shows are absolutely mind-blowing and as a band, they have an incredible amount of creative energy.’

That’s one way of putting it!

They sleep together, they hate each other, we want them together!

The Charlotte Crosby and Gaz Beadle love story has been playing out on our screens for as long as Geordie Shore existed and we still can’t get enough of it. Despite all the screams, fights and humps, it’s impossible to not to be Team Chaz.

READ MORE CELEBRITY LOVE STORIES

Just like a real life Ross and Rachel from Friends, the on-again-off-again, love/hate relationship all started one night in season one when, after a drunken night out, the pair found each other in bed. Spooning, at first. But as the wise woman Charlotte said, ‘Spooning only leads to one thing: forking.’

Thus starting the beginning of their (mainly sexual) relationship. She even farted and wee’d herself mid-sex and he just laughed. We all thought they were perfect for each other.

Awww/ewww!

That’s not happily ever after though, as Gaz is THE Geordie Shore lad, so of course he pulled other girls. Charlotte took this really well and dealt with it sensibl– nah, she got incredibly drunk and the pair argued almost every night. Young love.

SEE CHARLOTTE CROSBY’S AMAZING NOSE JOB PICTURES 

But no matter how many times they screamed and cried, there was always a connection between them. Season four saw Gaz squaring up to Dan Thomas when he got too close to his beloved in a hot tub, even though was with then-boyfriend Scott.

It wasn’t until season 5 that the true feelings bubbled to the surface. Charlotte broke down in tears before telling Gary she loves him.

‘I have been ever since day 1 and he’s all I’ve ever known and without him I’m lost,’ she said on the show. Our collective hearts broke for Charlotte when Gaz told her he doesn’t feel the same way.

This seemed like the end for Newcastle’s favourite couple. Especially as Charlotte temporarily left Georide Shore to WIN Celebrity Big Brother. She passed the parsnip baton onto Gaz’s next girlfriend, Marnie Simpson. When Charlotte made her dramatic return in season 8, she told Gaz: ‘I’m happy for ya but I don’t think she’s the one.’ He responds, ‘Oh, she’s not… obviously.’

Once season 9 rolled around, it looked like it was finally their time. Charlotte wanted cuddles from Gary and only Gary. They both spooned. She said, ‘It feels like I’ve never been away from him.’ They start having sex again! Oh, then Gaz talks to another girl, Charlotte goes mental at him, and that’s the end of that!

Then, Gaz met then-love-of-his-life Lillie Lexi Gregg, though they split up last month for ‘career differences.’ Charlotte met Love Island’s Max Morley at a charity event but that didn’t last long either and her and Gaz were spotted holding hands shortly after.

Max said that the time, ‘Charlotte was using me while waiting for Gary.’ Yikes! He’s also branded Gaz a ‘mug’. Gaz then all but confirmed with that the pair were basically an item … Casual, but who y’know.

Then came this bet which could mean there is a Geordie Shore wedding this year:

Since then, it has been pretty much the same. The pair continued to treat each other mean, and it’s kept each other keen.

On Valentines day they shared a cute video of them kissing while filming for Geordie Shore and just a few days later, Charlotte shared an adorable picture of the pair of them on Instagram and captioned it with some cheesy-yet-cute words from a One Direction classic tune:

‘You and me got a whole Lotta history…
We could be the greatest team that the world has ever seen…’

Even the other Geordie Shore lot think they’re a match made in heaven. When asked whether Gaz and Charlotte make a good couple Marnie wrote…

We will all have to wait and see where Chaz romance takes us. Will Gaz marry her if he loses her bet? Don’t we all really want to see what Charlotte would look like with Gaz’s name tattooed on her head? We can’t wait to find out.

Taylor Swift got all emotional as her BFF Ed Sheeran celebrated his 25th birthday AND winning two Grammys

She may be totally loved-up with boyfriend Calvin Harris, but Taylor Swift has a lot of feels in her heart for the other man in her life – Ed Sheeran.

In honour of both Ed’s 25th birthday AND him winning two Grammys on Tuesday night for his hit Thinking Out Loud, Taylor took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a heartfelt (and rather lengthy) post about her ginger-haired pal.

Alongside a snap of smiley Ed clutching on of his awards, Tay recalled the moment she first heard the tune that would go on to become the Suffolk-born singer-songwriters’s biggest hit.

‘Looking back on the highlights of my life, there’s a moment I’ll never forget from a day in London about two years ago,’ Taylor starts.

‘I was in town to play the O2 and I was out shopping on my day off. My friend Ed Sheeran met up with me in this little shop where I was buying ballet shoes.

Of COURSE she was buying ballet shoes – she practically lived in them circa 2014.

Tay continued: ‘He walks in and says “you have to hear this new song. I think it’s the best one I’ve ever written.” And then, as usual, he pulls out his phone and gives me headphones.

‘I sat there on a bench in that store and heard ‘Thinking Out Loud’ for the first time, as little kids were picking out tutus and leotards next to us. Little did we know it would go on to be first dance song at countless weddings all over the world, become Ed’s biggest hit, and eventually go on to win him Song of the Year at the 2016 Grammys.

Building to her emotional climax, Taylor added: ‘Ed and I had been on tour together all year on the Red Tour and we saw each other almost every day. I lived for the moments he would burst into my dressing room with a new song to play me.

It happened so often that it became normal, and I don’t think he ever knew how much it meant to me that he wanted me to hear his songs first.

I don’t think he ever knew how inspired I was by his drive and passion to constantly create new art.

‘But it’s his 25th birthday today, so I’m saying it now. You deserve everything you have, and everything you will continue to achieve, Ed.’

Excuse us a moment – there’s something in our eye…

Meanwhile, Calvin paid his own moving tribute on Instagram to Taylor after she won three Grammys, including Best Album for 1989.

Posting a snap of his love making her acceptance speech (in which she threw shade at Kanye West), Calvin proudly wrote: ‘Congratulations to my beautiful girlfriend.’

Aww, you guys – there’s SO much love in the air right now! Must be a Valentine’s Day hangover…

The This Morning couple updated their wills ahead of Eamonn’s operation

Ruth Langsford has revealed how she worried that husband Eamonn Holmes wouldn’t SURVIVE his recent hip operation.

The 55-year-old presenter admits that both she and Eamonn, 56, had secret concerns about his double hip replacement surgery, which took place earlier this month and took just over three hours to complete.

Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes given SEX ban!

‘We never voiced the fear of him not coming round from the anaesthetic,’ Ruth tells Best magazine. ‘But we were both thinking it.

’It was weird – I went to bed, standing in our bathroom taking my make-up off with all Eamonn’s things there – and trying to stop the maudlin thoughts of what if anything happens.

‘All those awful thoughts were fighting there way to the front of my mind.’

Despite knowing that it was highly unlikely that anything could go wrong, Ruth still had her worries and the couple decided to update their wills just in case.

‘We set up a meeting just before Christmas and suddenly it seemed very poignant,’ she explains.

‘To be sitting there, saying things like, “So, Eamonn, if you die first, what will happen to…”

‘Having that conversation with such a big operation looming took on a whole new meaning.’

Ruth was clearly very anxious about Eamonn’s surgery after several months of waiting.

‘Logically, the risk is miniscule but this operation has been looming for a while now and you consider everything,’ the Loose Women star confesses.

‘I just couldn’t bear to have that conversation. I felt as if time, real life, was suspended.’

Fortunately all went well with Eamonn’s procedure and he is continuing his recovery at home.

Ruth – who has a son, Jack, with Eamonn – has been supporting her man all the way and recently posted a gushing message for him on Twitter to celebrate Valentine’s day.

‘Love is all you need,’ she wrote. ‘Happy Valentine’s Day to the love of my life @EamonnHolmes’

Awww, you guys!
