Meet Cleo ‘The Hurricane’ (formerly known as Jill Maclean) the self-styled ‘international rock star of pole dancing’.

The two-time Australian Pole Dance Champion, originally from Trinidad and Tobago, now based in LA, still likes to slip on her pole dancing shoes, even though she’s only one week away from giving birth.

The 36-year-old started pole dancing in 2007 and explains on her blog that she originally intended to quit the pole while pregnant, but went back to it as it helps her feel sexy and strong.

If you love guinea pigs, food, and anything cute for that matter, you’ll fall in love with Ludwik. 

Ludwik is a professional model and Instagram star who, when not out partying or being overwhelmed with interest from handsome men, poses with food.

From the looks of it, Ludwik is pretty chilled out.

She doesn’t take modelling too seriously and certainly doesn’t let it define her as a guinea pig. Which is pretty cool. You do you, Ludwik.

Here she is perfectly demonstrating how to eat celery

Here’s why you shouldn’t shave your pubes

Waxing, shaving, letting your bush grow wild and free? Which one’s the right choice?

Your pubes are probably the most hotly debated area of hair on your body. Everyone has an opinion. Everyone will fiercely defend their personal pubic choice.

And while we’d never judge what you choose to do with your body hair (shave if you like it, or let it grow. It’s none of our business), what we do want everyone to know is that there’s nothing wrong with leaving your pubes as nature intended.

We’re talking full bush. No shame.

Unicorn braids: How to recreate the unicorn plait or 3D French plait hair trend

A thick, straight braid in the middle of your hair parting is the hair style of the moment.

After the half top-knot this is the next ‘semi-updo’, and it’s perfect for oval face shapes.

You can style it in a boho, messy way with beach curls – or even in a volumised mohican – for easy festival hair, or chic and sharp for a night out.

Salon owner and extensions specialist Tatiana Karelina created the style backstage at Felder Felder late last month.

Gigi Hadid, Chrissy Teigen and Nina Dobrev are fans of the look.

And now Instagrammers and hairdressers are coming up with their own versions.

According to Tatiana’s brief, the style is modern, cool, effortless and rock ‘n’ roll, involving no brushing, tonging or combing. ‘A punk princess with a little magic thrown in,’… Read the full story

This is why your penis shrinks when you’re cold

If you’ve ever wondered why your penis tends to shrink down when it catches a draft, don’t worry – it happens to everyone. 

And there’s actually a pretty straight forward answer for it.

As you’ll know, an erection is fuelled by blood flow.

When you’re cold, the blood vessels in the penis constrict, meaning less blood gets to your penis and ultimately decreases its size until temperatures warm up and the blood flow picks up again.

The shrinking occurs when the centre part of the attempts to find warmth by drawing itself into your body.

Like a tortoise slowly putting his head back into his shell.

Come on, you imagined it too.

After years of false-dawns and the occasional charity auction, Nike has finally unveiled a pair of Marty McFly-inspired self-lacing trainers that we’ll actually be able to own.

They’re better looking than Marty’s too.

Nike showed off its new HyperAdapt 1.0 trainers in New York yesterday and the company has confirmed they will launch later this year.

Its the first line to feature what the sportswear brand is calling ‘electro-adaptive reactive laces (EARL)’. The laces will automatically tighten when you slip your foot into the shoe – the system works using a sensor hidden in the heel, which is triggered when the foot hits it.

Your salmon could have cocaine in it

Slightly concerning news for salmon fans: apparently, loads of salmon fillets could be contaminated with cocaine.

According to the Seattle Times, salmon caught near Seattle have been contaminated by waste water. Not good.

That waste water contains 81 different types of drug, including antidepressants, antibiotics, nicotine, and cocaine.

And as a result, high levels of drugs have been found in tissue samples of the chinook salmon fished in the area.

So essentially, salmon fillets fished from that region could contain traces of cocaine and antidepressants.

You can imagine our excitement when we came across Sky, a fluffy white Ragdoll cat who has so much fur he could easily be mistaken for a walking cloud.

Along with his luscious fur that frankly gives us new #hairgoals comes a pair of bright blue sparkling eyes.

But it’s not just us and other cats who are falling in love with Sky.

He is also becoming increasingly popular on Instagram, where he currently has more than 40,000 followers.

Because LOOK AT THE FLUFF

Ugh, breastfeeding in public. Why can’t us women just hide away in a cupboard when we’re feeding our kids?

Why aren’t we covered by a massive potato sack, so our areas of skin don’t enrage and deeply disturb the other human people around us?

And, dear lord, why haven’t we created a self-imposed baby-feeding curfew, so that we only provide nourishment for our children under the cover of night, where no one has to put up the spectacle?

It’s ridiculous, really.

But maybe we’re just confused. Maybe the rules aren’t quite clear.

So we’re super grateful to The Canatellas, who… Read the full story

Ruby on her 100th birthday MEET the 100-year-old Scots grandma with ìamazingî skin - and her secret is never wearing makeup. Since a young age Ruby Mathieson, who recently celebrated her milestone birthday, thought makeup was ìevil stuffî. Over the years she has simply washed her face every day with cold water - a tip which she learned from her mother. And photos taken throughout her lifetime show the benefits of such a strict regimen - as she still maintains a youthful glow at the age of 100.

Alcohol and sex. It’s a match made in blurry-eyed, lusty heaven (as long as everything’s consensual, obviously).

Because inhibitions are lowered. You’re strangely confident. You’re too busy focusing on not throwing up to worry about belly jiggles.

And you’re SO turned on right now, because you’re drunk, everything’s hilarious and wonderful, and THIS EXACT MOMENT is the perfect time to have sex. Or consume an entire plate of nachos. Whatever.

There’s good drunk sex, bad drunk sex, and all kinds of magical drunk sex in between. Here are the key types you’ll notice out in the wild.*

When you’re in that cramped little toilet trying to get five minutes peace do you ever stop to think what actually happens to you waste after you flush? 

Is there a hole under the airplane that shoots the waste into the sky? Does it just magically disappear?

In case you weren’t sure, it’s neither of the above.

What they really do to get rid of the waste is actually pretty complex.

Relying on strong suction from the flush – AKA praying for no blockages during the flight, because, just imagine – a valve opens when the chain is pulled, sucking all of the waste… Read the full story

Don’t play with your food.

Not a phrase you’re likely to hear in my house.

That’s because, for better or for worse, I’ve gone down the baby-led weaning route where I encourage my child to, shall we say, explore the qualities of her food any way she sees fit, with no interference from me.

I’m glad I chose this option, my daughter happily scoffs anything I put in front of her, be it herb crusted fish or a mild curry, but it certainly has its ups and downs.

Here are a few things you might recognise if you are a baby-led weaner…

The gym can be a confusing, intimidating place.

Unless we’re booked into a class, many of us will spend our gym hour on the treadmill or cross trainer.

It’s not because we don’t know that the rest of it is good for us – we just haven’t got a clue how to use it.

British Military Fitness recently reported that one in five men perform exercises wrong after learning bad habits from copying others working out.

It’s something many of us do – which wastes time and leave us prone to injury.

There are two types of people in the world – those who hate the sound of the alarm going off in the morning and those who are up and out before it’s even had a chance to chime.

But, whilst it comes with its perks, being a morning person isn’t always the easy option and there are plenty of obstacles that come with being someone who’s up with the birds.
