Dianne Buswell has taken to social media to hit back at trolls who said they “can’t watch a pregnant girl dance”. The professional dancer shared a clip to her Instagram page where she defiantly danced and did a cartwheel for the camera.

For all those who complain that pregnant girls can’t watch them dance, the mum-to-be wrote at the top of the video: “! When I hear the beat, I can’t stop thinking.

She then continued to say the same in the caption, “I just can’t help it when I hear the beat,” as well as adding a number of emojis, including one for a pregnant woman. The star’s friends and fans posted support messages in the comments.

It Takes Two host Fleur East shared a collection of clapping hands emojis, while fellow Strictly star Kai Widdrington wrote: “Tell ’em di.”

I looove this, a fan said. You’re still dancing, in my opinion, is so cool! shows how inclusive dance can be even more! always continue to dance.

Another phrased, “As a midwif, I applaud you and loved watching you dance!!” Dianne has since reacted furiously to claims that Stefan Dennis’ abrupt departure from the program was a deliberate “set up” and that Dianne has reacted to this.

After reporting that he had torn a muscle in his calf, Neighbours actor Stefan was forced to leave the famed dance program this week. However, some online critics claimed the pair had planned to leave the competition early as a result of her pregnancy.

Dianne met on the show and her partner, Joe Sugg, who was a former Strictly contestant. They are expecting their first child. Then, she responded to a Strictly viewer with one response on her Instagram Stories.

I saw this coming, to be honest. Diane couldn’t really go on, especially as she grew. God bless her. She is one of my favorite dancers, and I regret to say that, but I believe this was planned to protect her and the baby. (sic)”.

Dianne responded, “I sound like a broken record, but I’m seeing a little of this floating around again!” Why should I, I know that some people say to ignore it?

“I’ll speak up,” I promise. I would love to continue dancing this week, next week, and so forth and forth. I actually have more energy this year than I did last year.

“Please respect Stefan, who is extremely upset that he won’t be able to dance, and stop accepting that this is a set-up!” because, “believe me, we would if we could”!

Lilly Ghalichi, a reality star, was shocked when Michelle Obama reached out to her personally and helped her build her beauty empire and make her products popular.

Her lashes are worn by everyone from pop superstars Taylor Swift, Beyonce and Adele to America’s former First Lady Michelle Obama. But Lilly Ghalichi, 42, who started the luxury lash brand Lilly Lashes with her sister 16 years ago, is relatively unknown this side of the pond.

The mother-of-two first appeared in the media in 2012 while participating in Bravo’s Shahs of Sunset for two seasons. Before making the decision to leave the limelight and concentrate on her beauty brand, Lilly spent two seasons on the reality TV show.

Celebrating her lashes arriving on the British high street following a huge deal with beauty giant Superdrug, she said: “We are the Hollywood lash. Everyone from Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce wear our lashes.

“Any girl that is known for glam and beauty, trusts and wears Lily Lashes. And for us that it the best award! If you’re trusted on Hollywood’s most famous faces at their most important times, whether it’s the Met Gala or a concert tour.

“Taylor Swift requested so many lashes, she wore them on every single concert of her ERAs tour. Beyonce did the same! Taylor did the same for her Vegas residency. Adele wears our lashes. Adele’s make-up artists reached out to us and said Adele will only wear your lashes.”

However, Lilly was left speechless after receiving a direct message from Michelle Obama. Can you believe Michelle reached out to us, she asked? We were unable to believe it.

After trying to achieve the glamorous appearance she wanted, Lilly unintentionally launched her lash brand. She wrote a blog post, wrote 300 lashes, and the rest is history. No false lashes, according to her, were what I needed. To achieve the glamorous look I wanted, I would be putting three pairs of them on top of one another.

Everyone else did it, not just me, but everyone else did it. It took a lot of time, not just because you had to buy three pairs of lashes. Right there must be another option, I thought.

“I put up a blog post, there wasn’t even Instagram back then, and I said ‘Hey if anyone wants these lashes, I’ve made these lashes’. I then went and made a sandwich with my sister and when I came back I had hundreds of emails.

I looked at my sister, which made me smile because there were so many other women out there who wanted more from their lashes. I said to my sister, “I’m going to start a lash line, I’m going to give everyone else glamorous lashes,” and I said, “I’m going to start a lash line.”

Lilly balances raising her three-year-old son Kashton and daughter Alara, who is seven years old, with her beauty business. Last week, her range was introduced in nationwide Superdrug locations.

She continued, “We are so excited to be opening our doors to the UK with Superdrug because we have such a sizable UK clientele. It feels so wonderful to finally be able to give our lashes to glamorous beauties over here.” Everything you need is on our kits because some of our amazing styles come with glue and are available in a variety of colors. Superdrug now sells Lilly Lashes.

She frequently discussed her personal struggles, including dealing with suicidal ideation, promoting body positivity, and managing bipolar disorder. She revealed in a January Instagram post that she “came into 2024 unsure if I even wanted to live.”

She described how, as a 12-year-old, she had been dealing with these issues and how they “only got worse as the years went on.”

Emman called her mental health issues “treatment-resistant.” At the conclusion of the post, she expressed optimism, saying: “2024 was a whirlwind of ups and downs, but as I step into 2025, Emman’s mother Feliciana has heartfelt tribute to her beloved daughter, stating: “It’s with deep sadness that we share the unexpected passing of our daughter and sister, Emman. She enriched our lives and those of those who knew her with such joy, laughter, and love.

Emman continued, “She wasn’t afraid to share her own journey with mental health, and she had a way of making people feel heard and seen. Many people were less lonely because of her sincerity. We ask that you carry on Emman’s legacy the virtues she embodied in your daily lives, including compassion, courage, and a little bit of kindness. Kim, Feli, Jose, and Eliana are all in love.

Emman’s family is widely regarded as one of the most well-known families in the Philippines because of the fact that she was the granddaughter of former mayor of Manila, Lito Atienza.

Emman was also known for expressing her opinions on social and political issues, and she admitted in a post that progressive views in her home country occasionally would receive criticism.

Lily Allen has revealed that her split from Stranger Things actor David Harbour served as inspiration for her most intimate album to date, West End Girl, which was the result of “deep-rooted issues with rejection and abandonment.”

The 39-year-old singer-songwriter BMG released her long-awaited album yesterday (October 24). Since her 2018 album No Shame, she hasn’t released any music in seven years.

In that time, Lily stepped away from the spotlight to focus on theatre and acting. She earned critical acclaim for her performances in 2:22 A Ghost Story and The Pillowman, as well as appearing in the film How To Build A Girl and the Sky comedy Dreamland.

She also hosts the well-known podcast Miss Me? with long-time friend Miquita Oliver, but she claims that the breakdown of her marriage to David left her feeling destabilized and vulnerable over the past few years.

Lily reflected on the suffering that gave birth to West End Girl in a statement to Perfect magazine, calling it an “album of sorrow and pain.”

She said, “I have deep-rooted issues with rejection and abandonment that I’ve been tussling with for most of my adult life and probably quite a lot of my childhood as well.” And at the time, I was reacting violently to various things.

She continued, “It’s difficult for me to not have my person, you know,” after confirming that “things” had spoken of the end of her marriage. And I’m a remarkably dependent person. When I’m missing the comfort and stability of what is not available, I find it difficult to lean on those who are.

The mother-of-two added that she felt pressured to “do the work” of healing. “I am aware that what I have to do is to make myself happy, and that makes me very irritable.” It means doing the work, which I believe I’ve been doing for a long time. It’s exhausting to me. And I believed it was finished. I assumed, “Oh, I thought it would be happily ever after”?

After meeting on the celebrity dating app Raya, Lily and David tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2020. However, months of speculation about infidelity led to their announcement to end their engagement earlier this year.

Lily later admitted she entered treatment to cope with the “emotional turmoil” of the split. Since leaving their Brooklyn townhouse the singer has gotten settled in London, buying an ex-council flat in Notting Hill that she’s been decorating herself.

She previously told The Mirror: “I’ve obviously had quite a hard time and that’s really helped me.” The emotional fallout of the breakup is explored in depth in West End Girl.

Relapse explores her struggle to stay sober while her songs Ruminating and Madeline explore themes of jealousy and infidelity. Just Enough, a track about moving on and accepting yourself, closes the album.

Former Hollyoaks star Gemma Atkinson and her fiancé of four years, professional dancer Gorka Marquez have come a long way as a couple since meeting behind the scenes on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2017. They’re now parents of two – six-year-old Mia and her little brother Thiago, two – and now hosting their new podcast, Lost in Translation.

Chatting with OK! The couple revealed each other’s worst habits and explained why one of them “absolutely repulses” the other in a magazine about what listeners can expect as well as a few significant life updates. We message our producer individually about what has irritated us each week, Gemma said, and then have a discussion about it. We play silly games and examine the differences between Spanish and English, respectively.

She continued, revealing that one of her favorite childhood favorites, one of which has so far failed to impress her other half, is one of the biggest cultural clashes between the Spanish-Mancunian couple.

“Few years ago, I grew up drinking chippy tea with gravy on Friday. On chips, vinegar. This absolutely repulses Gorka, she said before adding that Thiago also loves them. He prefers them over anything else.

But vegetarian Gemma also has a few of Gorka’s favourite foods to contend with, including his love of a cured meat. “At Christmas I bring a big Spanish leg of ham home,” he shared. “It’s amazing, but Gemma’s going, ‘Get that thing out of the house!’.”

However, the couple and I both agreed that their relationship has an underlying opposite that draws people to it. Gorka, 35, admitted he was a “perfectionist” but that “Gemma’s messy” was something that bothers him further.

Gemma joked, “I’ve been folding socks wrong my entire life.” “I’ll just fold them,” she said. Gorka prefers them tucked in completely next to each other, the bottom to the top.

Gorka and the family are currently having a different end of year, with her joining the judging panel for the Spanish version of Strictly, which features Alex Kingston, La Voix, and Vicky Pattison.

Gemma said the family’s “countdown to Christmas” is on Saturday nights, and it’s already starting to look like their two young children might follow their father’s example despite not seeing their father on television.

They possess musicality, they claim. Mia has a dancing craze. Thiago already sings in tune, and he has a good ear. He adores The Greatest Showman and plays the drum at the ideal moment.

When making up new lyrics for his own song during a live television performance on Friday night, Westlife singer Shane Filan managed to cover it up by covering it up.

Westlife singer Shane Filan dramatically forgot the lyrics to a song on live TV. The pop star, 46, found fame as part of the Irish boyband in the late 1990s alongside Kian Egan, Nicky Byrne, Brian McFadden, who left permanently in 2004, and Mark Feehily, who is currently on hiatus whilst he deals with various health issues. The trio have now launched a comeback with their single Chariot.

The song, which includes popular songs like You Raise Me Up and Uptown Girl, will be included on their upcoming greatest hits album 25, which also includes a new addition of acting. Although Mark’s vocals are on the album, Shane was left to play him during their appearance on The Late Late Show in Ireland, but he couldn’t quite remember the lyrics because he wasn’t in the lineup.

Opting to simply make the words up instead, Shane seemed to have got away with it until host Patrick Kielty pointed it out at the end of the performance. He quipped: “You also surprised the two boys tonight with your new single!” In response, Shane said: “My new rendition.”

The Bop Bop Baby singer then explained the blunder, jokingly blaming it on his absent bandmate. He said: “So it was the world premiere of Chariot, but the second verse I actually sang the wrong line. I actually made up a line tonight. I’m going to blame Mark on it cuz it’s Mark’s verse, but yeah.

What’s the line, I’m reading through it, and I’m going, “What’s the line?” “,” and then it completely disappeared from my mind. You just need to improvise, sometimes. And I was anticipating it, but it was entertaining.

At the conclusion of the program, Patrick thanked the boys for their sacrifices in their home country with a Late Late Show award. He continued, “We just wanted to say a big thank you to you guys just for the joy you’ve brought everyone for 25 years here in this show, on stages all over the world.” You have fought for Ireland all your life and won awards. We were genuinely not more proud.

“Well, flying the flag at home and abroad on behalf of everyone here, all your fans, and everyone at the Late Late Show, we want you to accept this; this is our Late Late Late Show Legend award.”

Mark won’t be joining the band’s 25th anniversary celebrations. Mark announced his shock exit from the Irish group last year, amid some serious health battles, but many had been hopeful he would return to the stage soon. “It is with the utmost level of regret that I must now temporarily stand down from all Westlife touring until a time that I have had the chance to fully recover from the turbulent journey I have been through as an individual,” Mark emotionally revealed in February 2024.

Mark won’t be able to participate in the festivities, sadly. When he is ready and able, we hope he will be able to return to the stage. He continues to express his love and positivity to all of you, as he has always done, Westlife said in a statement shared with fans at the time.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our 25th anniversary celebrations, according to Westlife, who announced in June that they would be performing as a trio to mark their 25th anniversary at the Newcastle Arena. Who would have imagined that 25 years later, we would still be here?

“We have a lot of exciting plans coming up that will include new music, an album, special shows, and many, many more surprises,” the company announced. Sadly, Mark won’t be able to attend the gathering. When he is ready and able, we hope he will be able to return to the stage. He continues to express his gratitude and love to you all.

The four of us are still in shock that 25 years have passed. You have consistently shown us us that we are still in love and loyal to them wherever we go. We are so blessed to have you all with us, and we look forward to sharing a happy birthday with you! Happy 25th Birthday to all of us! Love, Kian, Mark, Nicky, and Shane X.
