The Scientific Reason You're In Love With One Direction and Boybands

One Direction boyband science explanationBoyband lovers, take note. There's a reason we're so completely infatuated with One Direction...it's science. We can think of a lot of totally reasonable explanations for why we just can't shake the guys from our brains for the better part of every single day - but we never even considered the scientific possibilities.

Relationship therapist Paul Hokemeyer set out the deets in Women's Health, explaining why we tend to be drawn to a certain type of band, like, forever: "This has to do with neuroplasticity and the way our brains crave the pleasures of our past. If your brain was imprinted with a pleasurable cause and effect, it will desperately hold onto that memory recall. We stick to what works."

Further, he added, "The members of these boy bands are testosterone incarnate. They've been hand-picked and cultivated to represent the ideal mate."

And to think, we have Simon Cowell to thank for that. We are forever grateful, Si.

The Anatomy of a Pro's Makeup Palettes

$

Ever wonder what a professional makeup artist's makeup palette looks like? The pros who work for celebrities and on magazine photo shoots often have to carry a dozen or more bags with them to work. They're filled with magazines, cosmetic products, palettes, tools, brushes and a lot more. But what's in those makeup palettes and why?

Eye Palettes
Multi Coloured Eye Shadow Palette and Brush
Here's what celebrity makeup artist Billy B has to say about palettes - "A palette is convenient logistically, but the real value is that most of the work has been done for you by experts choosing the shades to create your look." Basically, when it comes to palettes, color and texture play the biggest roles. These are staples you'll find in the collections of pros like Pati Dubroff.
Darkshadow eye Palette
  • Nude/sheer eyelid primer - so that all eye makeup looks vibrant and stays put
  • Nude eyeshadow palette - includes shades from ivory to taupe to dark brown. Nude colors go with every skin tone and create simple, elegant looks.
  • Evening eyeshadow palette - this is usually filled with a range of shimmery, long lasting colors like midnight blue and forest green which are used to create smokey and sophisticated looks.
  • Day eyeshadow palette - full of matte, shimmer, bright colors like orange, yellow and pink that are used to offset an outfit or draw attention to the eyes.
  • Brow palette - includes brow gel/powder suitable for all hair colors - blonde, dark brown, auburn, etc.

Cheek Palettes
Cheek Makeup Palette
To add color to cheeks is to make a client's face look fresh and lively. Professional makeup artists often use blush to counteract pallid complexions. A collection of blushes should include colors for every skin tone - pale pink, coral, peach, rose, rouge and wine are the basic shades every pro carries. A perfect little snapshot of eye and cheek palettes from a makeup artist kit can be found in e.l.f.'s cosmetic collection.

Lip Palettes
Lip Palette
A huge range of lipsticks isn't enough for pros like Celena Hancock. The U.K. based makeup artist believes in creamy lip mixtures and shimmery lip glosses as well. Lip must-haves in a pro's palette include:
  • Tinted lip balms - these are used to give a touch of color to the lips in order to keep the focus on the eyes and cheeks. Nudes and pinks are the color range often used. Sometimes, these balms are mixed with lipstick to create a custom color.
  • Lipsticks - these are used to apply solid, bold colors to keep the focus on the lips. A wide range of color is necessary - nude, pale pink, fuchsia, purple, coral, cherry red, wine, burgundy and brown are all must haves.
  • Lip glosses - glosses are used to give lips a plumper, more fun look. Often shimmer is added to glosses and shades like cherry red, pink and purple are common in most makeup kits.

Face products

Facial products can be considered the most important when it comes to makeup because they create the canvas which gets 'painted' on. That's why makeup artists always invest in the best primers, foundations and BB creams even if they cost a lot. A pro's makeup collection will contain the following:
Face Cosmetics
  • A smoothening and moisturizing agent - This is the first product applied and is used to smooth the skin and fill in fine lines so that makeup doesn't crease. Primers, tinted moisturizers, BB and CC creams are considered smoothening agents.
  • Liquid foundation - Every pro needs multiple shades of foundation for their clients to create a blank base for the makeup to sit on.
  • Concealer palette -a wide range of concealer shades are necessary to accommodate all skin tones. Concealers are necessary to cover blemishes and even out complexions.
  • Contouring palette - this palette is used to sculpt the face using a bronzer and a highlighter and makeup artists use them to downplay and accent facial features like the cheekbones and nose.
  • Loose finishing powder - a translucent, setting powder is vital in every makeup artist's kit to give the final look a soft finish, eliminate oil and keep the makeup in place.
Makeup for Face
Every pro makeup artist kit will have the basics - from eyes to lips, but the cool thing is that no two of them will build the same makeup kit. Professional makeup artists are pros because they find a balance between the products needed and the products that work for them. That's why the anatomy of your makeup palette will be unlike any other!

Welp, it's been 100 days since Zayn Malik left One Direction and while we still miss him like crazy, it's good to know the 1D guys carried on and continue to deliver amazing shows (with promises of great new music to come too).

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Harry Styles dished a little about how life has changed for them since Zayn left in March.

According to Harry, "There have been incredible shows across Europe. Some of the best we've had!" So they're not any worse for the wear after losing a member, it seems. Also? Of course they're going to keep killing it at shows.

Harry further explained, "The only changes have been that the parts Zayn sang have been picked up by different people. Other than that, the shows have been going absolutely great."

Harry even had high praise for Liam Payne taking on the high notes of "Story Of My Life," admitting, "It would be pretty devastating if we took that song out. Liam stepped up to do the high notes. He kicks them in the bollocks every show. He doesn't hold back."

Keep on kickin' those high notes, Liam!

Only Channing Tatum Could Make the Funky Chicken Dance Sexy

Do you have 30 seconds to spare? Even if you don't, you'll want to make time for this one because Channing Tatum's "7 Dance Moves in 30 Seconds" video will officially give you life.

In this awesome clip from Vanity Fair, the Magic Mike XXL star does the following as he dances to Ginuwine's "Pony," which already tells you there's gonna be some sexy stuff happening:

-The Running Man: Pretty good, pretty good. We didn't get to see a whole lot of it because it was sort of part of the intro, but that little turnaround thing he did was kinda cool.

-The Twist: We actually could have done without this one. Nobody can look hot doing the twist and while Channing gave it a good effort, the twist is the twist and it's inherently awkward. We would have preferred that he used those three seconds doing the "Funky Chicken" and you'll see why in a just a second.

-The Funky Chicken: Yassssss! Another dance that is inherently awkward, but Channing somehow achieved the impossible and made it sexy. His "oh this thing?" right before it only added to the sexiness because it was like 'aw! he's embarrassed' and then 'damn! That is one sexy chicken!'

-The Hula: Not as good as the Funky Chicken, but that's a tough act to follow.

-The Pony: Tbh, we weren't even paying attention, we were already back thinking about the Funky Chicken again.

-The Robot: Actually very impressive. And that little swivel-side move at the end was a nice touch.

-Voguing: What a perfect note to end on. Even Madonna would be jealous of Channing's vogue!

Um...that is NOT Kourtney Kardashian.

Scott Disick was photographed getting too close for comfort with his ex-girlfriend, stylist Chloe Bartoli during a vacation in Monte Carlo this week.

The reality star seems to be having quite the trip, with an appearance in Las Vegas, a stop in St. Tropez and now, Monte Carlo. Meanwhile, Kourtney is back home in Los Angeles and was spotted filming scenes for Keeping Up With The Kardashians with Kim and Khloe Kardashian on Thursday.

A source tells Us Weekly that "Kourtney is going to freak when she sees the photos. Scott and Chloe flirt all the time. Kourtney does not want her around Scott." Maybe there is an explanation for all of this and we'll see it on an upcoming episode of the show? Maybe they're on a break? Or something?

It might have just been coincidental, but Kourt did share this Instagram photo shortly after the photos surfaced, along with the caption, "Don't mess."

Today - Season 64Ouch! Meghan Trainor just had to cancel the first two shows of her MTrain Tour after she suffered a vocal chord hemorrhage. That sounds really painful...

Instead of just posting a tweet telling fans what happened, the "All About That Bass" singer decided to make it more personal, sharing this video with the caption, "I'm in New York now seeing another doctor. So frustrated but cant make any noise. At least I got my brother @ryan.trainor to make me smile. And my fans supporting me. thank you for your kind words #loveyoumegatronz."
She also shared a note, reading, "I don't want anyone worrying but I have had a hemorrhage on my vocal chords. Right now the doctors want me on complete vocal rest until they are healed so I have to postpone my first two shows in Atlantic City and Connecticut. I promise that I will make it up to my Megatronz. I have never missed a tour date before so this is killing me.

"I love you all very much and want to get healed quickly so I can show you this amazing tour we've been working on," she continued. "I am truly sorry to everyone who has bought tickets and made travel plans. I hate this."

While ticket-holders are obviously disappointed, Meghan's health comes first and the comments were flooded with well-wishes from fans...and we're going to add one more to that list. Get well soon, Meghan!

Why Did Everyone Freak Out About This Guacamole Recipe?

guacamole and nachosIf it ain't broke, don't fix it...

You know when someone tries to change you and you're like 'oh no you didn't!' because you know you're perfect just the way you are? Well, we have that same sort of protective instinct over guacamole and we thought it was pretty much a universally understood fact that guacamole is perfect.

In fact, if there are two things we know for certain about guacamole, they are 1) that "guac is extra" at Chipotle and 2) that it is absolutely pristinely perfect in every possible way.

So, if you go trying to improve upon perfection, you are going to fail and there might even be a massive Twitter uprising in the process, which is exactly what happened when the New York Times tweeted this. No shade, NYT, but no. Just no.

"This advice is wrong and also bad," one person replied. "Don't do this," BuzzFeed pleaded. "Don't f*** with my guac!" another person chimed in. Other people begged them to delete the tweet, perhaps out of fear that an inexperienced guac eater might think it's the right thing to do.

The peas became such a problem, even the President chimed in: Peas have their place in the world and that place is NOT inside of our guacamole bowl.


Rob Kardashian Reportedly Furious About Kim's Rolling Stone Comments

World's Most Beautiful Magazine Launch EventKim Kardashian and her brother Rob seem to have a sort of hot and cold relationship. The siblings have shared sweet messages about and to each other on social media and then some not-so-nice things have been said.

It looked like they were getting along well during their last Twitter exchange when Kim joked about the funny voice notes that Rob sends her.

A few days later, Kim's Rolling Stone interview was released and when she was asked about her reclusive brother, she replied, "It's not that mysterious, what's happening with Rob. He has gained weight. He feels uncomfortable being on the show, and that's OK."

Totally fine, but what she said next was kind of a bummer for her little bro. "Do I think he smokes weed, drinks beer, hangs out and plays video games with his friends all day long? Yes," she concluded.

Apparently, Rob is furious about that and some other comments Kim made to the mag about him. "Rob and Kim had been cool again and were getting along," a source exclusively told Us Weekly. "Now he's furious at her again for her comments to Rolling Stone. He was been bitching her out on her phone. He's mad - pissed as hell."

Hopefully they'll be able to hash it out behind closed doors and this little sibling spat won't play out on social media like the last one did.

Is Malia Obama Working for Lena Dunham Now?

ITALY-US-OBAMA-VISITLena Dunham kinda has the best intern ever if this is true.

According to reports, Malia Obama has been spotted hanging around the set of Girls in Brooklyn Thursday, and she's not just there for fun. After landing an internship as a production assisntant on Extant last summer, President Barack Obama's oldest daughter is reportedly interning on the HBO show, according to TMZ. Page Six spotted Malia there too, posting a shot of her on set while Girls filmed at the Aurora Ristorante. She also got to spend some time with Lena while she was there too. Although the Girls creator and star hasn't confirmed Malia's new gig just yet, she's made it no secret she's a fan of her. On her birthday in 2013, Lena tweeted, "Happy Birthday Malia Obama! Let's all hope we're as elegant as you when we grow up." There is a possibility that Malia's visit to the set is an early birthday present, considering she turns 17 Saturday. Either way, though, we have a feeling she's been having a blast teasing Sasha about the whole thing. Who wouldn't want to spend time with Hannah, Marnie, Jessa and Shoshanna? Life goals.

Beauty Blogger's Powerful Video Exposes Hateful Side of Social Media, Inspires

Beauty vlogger Em Ford (My Pale Skin) created this amazingly powerful video to show just how cruel people can be online with their 'keyboard courage.' Her #Youlookdisgusting video has now gone viral, exposing some of the hurtful comments she received after going without makeup and posting pics of herself on social media.

There were some pretty horrible reactions to her pics, such as, "I can't even look at her" and "Seriously...has she ever washed her face?"

When she covered up her acne with makeup, she received more positive than negative comments, but still had her share of haters, with comments like, "This is false advertising," "This is why I have trust issues," and "Imagine waking up next to her in the morning." Honestly??

Em ends the video by saying, "You are beautiful. Don't let anyone tell you differently. Not even yourself."

In the YouTube info, she explains: "I wanted to create a film that showed how social media can set unrealistic expectations on both women and men. One challenge many face today, is that as a society, we're so used to seeing false images of perfection, and comparing ourselves to unrealistic beauty standards that It can be hard to remember the most important thing - You ARE beautiful."

Em continues: "You are beautiful - no matter how flawed you feel, no matter how upset you may about the way you look or how hard you find it to make friends, or be confident. Believe in yourself, and never let anyone tell you're not beautiful - not even yourself."

Amazing message. Thanks, My Pale Skin!

Matt Damon Has a Ponytail and the Internet Can't Stop Swooning Over His New Look

Matt Damon and his hair are having the most amazing week ever. The 44-year-old Bourne Identity actor set the Internet ablaze when he stepped out at The Great Wall press conference on Thursday sporting a thick ponytail that instantly made us want to reach for a brush and French braid his hair like Chris Pratt . It's a drastic transformation for Matt, who typically wears his hair in a closely cropped style, but we can't deny that he is totally werkin' that ponytail.

Shameless fawning and drooling aside, what's really up with the Matt's handsome new 'do? Is he switching his style up for a new movie role or does he secretly enjoy giving everyone yet another reason to swoon in his presence? Hm, maybe this is Matt's subtle (and majorly sexy) way of stealing the thunder from those color-lovin' guys with #MermanHair. (They get points for creativity, but we're #TeamMattsPonytail all the way.)

A few years back, Matt admitted to experiencing some hairless envy over Jake Gyllenhaal's bald head, but obviously he's grown to embrace his flowing locks over time. Good job, Matt. Self-acceptance clearly looks good on you.

We wouldn't be surprised if this ponytail frenzy earns Matt a hair product endorsement deal.

JDRF LA 2015 Imagine GalaKristin Cavallari may have come from the upper echelon of The Hills and Laguna Beach, but when it comes to tending to the needs of her adorable babies, she's just your everyday mom pumping breast milk in a public restroom. "Pumping in airport bathrooms," the 28-year-old mother wrote in an Instagram caption of a throwback photo of her on mommy duties. "Feel like I JUST put all my pumping essentials away won't be long before I'm at it again. #TBT #goodtimes #gottadowhatyagottado," she added.

Already a mother of two to Camden and Jaxon, Kristin and her NFL baller hubby Jay Cutler will soon expand their brood as the couple announced in May that they are expecting another baby. Upon the arrival of the couple's new bundle of joy, Kristin will once again become a part of the celebrity breastfeeding brigade. Although met with some resistance by critics who think nursing children is a practice that should remain private, the trend of famous mothers sharing photos of themselves breastfeeding in public has recently picked up some steam, with stars like Giselle Bundchen, Jaime King and Gwen Stefani all giving us an inside peek at them in full-fledged mommy mode.

The debate over whether celebrity breastfeeding selfies are appropriate will undoubtedly rage on, but here's something that no one can argue with: Kristin and her baby bump look absolutely flawless.

We love Disney, you love Disney. There isn't really anyone who doesn't love Disney.

So, when we heard that there was a video covering all 75 years of Disney musical magic, we just had to hear it - and let's just say we were not disappointed.

YouTube star and American Idol finalist Todrick Hall put together this epic mashup called the "Evolution of Disney" where he sings every song from your favorite Disney movie and TV series. It's also an awesome refresher course for those fave shows you forgot about.

It looks like there are a lot of people who wanted to take the magical trip down memory lane with us, because the video already has almost 2 million views on YouTube.

It's kind of long (6 minutes), but it's well worth the time investment to hear him cover Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to Cinderella; Beauty and the Beast to Frozen and everything in between.

When we got over how cool the musical aspect of it was, we couldn't help but wonder how long that four-squares of himself situation must have taken to film and edit, but it looks really cool!

Chris Brown Defends Paternity Suit, Addresses Royalty's Grandmother on Instagram

2015 BET Awards - ArrivalsAfter engaging in an ex-lover's spat on Instagram with his on again, off again girlfriend Karrueche Tran, once again Chris Brown has taken to the social media platform to air his grievances, this time with Nia Guzman, the mother of his daughter Royalty. Nia posted comments online regarding reports that the "Loyal" singer filed a paternity suit due to her allegedly demanding $15,000 a month, while her mother attempted to explain precisely what Chris should be providing for his daughter.

"She needs security even when she is with Nia," Nia's mother wrote on Instagram, adding that Breezy's baby girl "needs to go to a private school and she needs to live in a gated community for his own daughter's safety!...period!"

Apparently, Chris didn't take too kindly to Nia and her mother addressing the couple's private parental affairs on social media. In a post that has since been deleted, Chris took to the Instagram page of gossip blog Baller Alert and wrote: "Obviously you aren't looking out for my daughter by putting personal issues up on Instagram," he wrote. "I'm not gonna be disrespectful and rude about this becuz I know and they know I provide and take care of my daughter equally."

The singer then went on to clarify the terms of his paternity suit, writing, "I filed for joint custody. "EQUAL" custody. No kid needs 4k a week. Especially when I have her 2weeks out of the month. So this is the last time im ever saying my peace on the issue. Let the courts handle everything else so we can handle the matter as civil adults. Telling all your business is childish and is not setting a good loving environment for ROYALTY. I have no ill intentions and I love my daughter. #godbless."

Sheesh. The drama is completely overwhelming at this point. More and more we're starting to wonder if Instagram is becoming the new therapist's couch. We're just sayin'...

Judge Has an Impromptu Reunion With Her Old Middle School Classmate

So. Many. Feels.

This is sweet, it's touching, it's sad, it's powerful. It's pretty much everything all at once making us feel a whole jumbled mess of emotions.

In a courtroom in Florida, Judge Mindy Glazer thought it was going to be just like any other day at work until one of her old classmates from middle school ended up in front of her.

"Did you go to Nautilus...for middle school," she asked. As soon as he realized that the judge presiding over his court bond hearing was his former classmate, he couldn't contain his emotions. "Oh my goodness," he exclaimed, putting his hand over his face in disbelief.

"Oh my goodness," he repeated before putting his head down.

"I'm sorry to see you there. I always wondered what happened to you, sir," she said. "This is the nicest kid in middle school...he was the best kid in middle school. I used to play football with him - and look what happened. I am so sorry to see you there."

Still, knowing the judge didn't see to help his case at all. She told him she hoped he'd come out of this ok and lead a lawful life. According to NBC Miami, his bail was set at $43,000.
