She's always been an advocate of the natural look but former TOWIE star Lydia Bright went back to her Essex roots on Thursday night when she attended the Tru Diamonds boutique launch.

The 22-year-old was sporting something of a golden glow and looked as though she may have over done the fake tan as she posed for photos at the party, held at the Westbury hotel in London.

Many were shocked when 13-year-old Willow Smith was photographed lying in bed with a shirtless 20-year-old man. Her bedmate was longtime friend Moises Arias, and if he looks familiar, it's no surprise.

The actor, writer, and photographer has been in show business since he was 9, and has many famous pals. Here's everything you need to know about him:

1. He starred on Hannah Montana

Before Miley Cyrus chopped off her hair and started twerking at the 2013 VMAs, she was, of course, the star of the hit Disney Channel show Hannah Montana. By her side was Arias, who played the romantic youngster Rico. Though he was supposed to be vastly younger than Cyrus on the show, the two are only a year apart in age. Arias appeared as a central character on all four seasons of the show, which aired its finale episode in 2011.

2. He's a photographer

Though he's kept up his acting career with a few side projects, such as his role in 2013's Ender's Game and as the voice of Antonio in Despicable Me 2, Arias seems to be focused on his photography. He tends to photograph his A-List pals, like Willow and Jaden Smith, and post them on his Tumblr, 490tx.com.

3. He's Keeping Up With the Jenners

In addition to the Smiths, Arias is besties with Kendall and Kylie Jenner. He recently travelled with them to Coachella, where he photographed their trip to the music festival. In fact, many of the reality stars' Instagram pictures were taken by Arias.

4. His brother is a Disney kid too

Moises isn't the only Arias to get his start on Disney. His younger brother, Mateo Arias, 18, currently stars as Jerry on the Disney Channel show Kickin' It, which is in its fourth season.

5. His Twitter is, well, something

Just like pal Jaden Smith and "not famous" star Shia LaBeouf, Arias' Twitter is filled with cryptic, prophetic messages like, "Knowing is knowing that knowing is not knowing," and "Let's have love and make sex." His 421,000 fans get to read his musings on a regular basis.

Kaley Cuoco agrees to marry Johnny Galecki on The Big Bang Theory

It's been seven years in the making.

And finally on Thursday night, Leonard (Johnny Galecki) proposed to Penny (Kaley Cuoco) on The Big Bang Theory after an epic on-off romance.

The nerdy scientist and the aspiring actress become engaged in the final moments of season seven's penultimate episode, begging the question: Will the finale see the two get married next week?

Finally: Leonard and Penny became engaged on Thursday night's episode of The Big Bang Theory

The episode titled The Gorilla Dissolution sees Penny become disillusioned with her career as an actress.

After getting into row with the director of a B movie, where she plays some kind of caged ape girl, the aspiring star is fired from the film.

The dramatic turn gets Penny thinking, as she begins to reflect on what's important to her.

Popping the question: The scientist proposed to the aspiring actress

Dream come true: Penny said yes

She says to Leonard: 'Getting fired from that movie was the best thing that could have happened to me.'

Adding: 'I finally realized that I don’t need to be famous or have some big career to be happy.'

'Then, what do you need?' Leonard inquires.

'You, you stupid pop tart,' the blonde says.

Leonard replies: 'Oh, then, I guess I’m in.'

And the two appear to both realise that they've just become engaged.

Figuring it out: Penny hits a low before realizing she wants Leonard

But just as fans of the show might be getting anxious over the lacklustre proposal, Leonard has one last surprise up his sleeve.

The scientist pulls out of his wallet an engagement ring that he says he's been carrying with him for the last 'couple years'.

Leonard then extends the ring before him asking: 'Penny, will you marry me?'

'Oh my God, yes!' she answers.

Mary Berry has nothing to fear in Ferne McCann if her recent attempts to bake a cake are anything to go by.

She said: 'I'm not sure what went wrong this time as I like to think of myself as a bit of a foodie. I think I spent too much time doing my make-up and forgot that the cake was in the oven.'
Prior to the incident, Ferne had oozed glamour thanks to her showstopping outfit and loose waves, which were swept over one shoulder.

She teamed her gown with a chunky, bejeweled pink necklace while treating herself to a glass of bubbly.

Earlier in the week Ferne had undoubtedly turned heads when she left the enclaves of Essex with boyfriend Charlie Sims, and headed for the chic of Chelsea to attend a smart brunch at the Bluebird.

The brunette beauty, who previously appeared on rival show Made in Chelsea back in 2012, has appeared in a number of snaps with her man on their respective Twitter pages, including one of them swimming with dolphins.

Unretouched Lady Gaga photo shows she was Photoshopped to look slimmer and given protruding ribs and perkier breasts for racy nude shoot

She has spoken out on the importance of a positive body image.

However, unretouched photographs of Lady Gaga posing for a 2009 magazine shoot have surfaced, revealing she was airbrushed to appear slimmer.

Not only were centimeters shaved off the 29-year-old's already enviable figure, but - most shockingly - she was given a dangerously protruding rib cage.

Unhealthy: Lady Gaga looked fabulous in the unretouched photos taken during a 2009 shoot (L), however she was slimmed down and her protruding rib cage was emphasized (R)

Wearing a pink lion's mane and tail to preserve her modesty on the nude shoot, which was shot by Mario Testino, it also appears Gaga's breasts have been airbrushed to appear smaller and higher.

In addition, her skin tone was evened out as bruises were removed and her tattoo was highlighted in the image released by a popular blog.

Adjustments in color and light were the finishing touches in creating the final look, which was almost unrecognizable as the popular entertainer.

Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, has spoken out in the past about her 10-year battle with anorexia and bulimia.

Before: A series of pictures revealed Lady Gaga prior to being photoshopped for her Versace campaign

'I always have been [conflicted about my body],' she told Glamour magazine in 2012.
'And some days are better than others, you know? Some days I feel fantastic. Today's good. [But] at the end of the day, I'm a tortured soul.'
The Paparazzi singer admitted she was bullied at school for being 'fat, ugly and weird.'
'I'm not a supermodel,' she said. 'That's not what I do. What I do is music. I want my fans to feel the way I do, to know what they have to offer is just as important, more important, than what's happening on the outside.'

After: Gaga looked incredible in the shot chosen as the final frame for the Versace campaign

This isn't the first time noticeable retouching has been noticed with the star's photo shoot.
Earlier this month, photographs that had yet to be airbrushed from a Versace modeling campaign had come to light, showing the performer looking washed out with dark circles around her eyes.
The frames were in stark contrast to the sleek, alabaster beauty of the released advertisement.
The pop princess is currently wowing fans on her ARTPOP Ball tour, which kicked off last week in Florida.

Exhibitionist: The performer isn't shy and is known for her racy stage outfits, such as this mermaid-shell number, which she wore for the ARTPOP Ball Tour opener in Fort Lauderdale, FL on Sunday

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West 'can't get married because their prenup is still being hashed out'

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West reportedly can't get married because their prenup agreement is still being hashed out.

Sources connected with Kim and Kanye have told TMZ that the prenup won't be signed until next week, probably Wednesday at the earliest. The site adds that they have been informed that the marriage will NOT take place until both Kim and Kanye sign on the dotted line.

Unlike Kim's prenup with previous husband Kris Humphries, the negotations with Kanye are said to be 'friendly' with no fighting. According to TMZ 'there's just a lot to work out, and it got complicated by the fact that Kanye recently changed management'.

Not signed off yet: Kim and Kanye still have important paper work to deal with before they can get married

The site is also predicting that the wedding will take place in Paris on the Memorial Day weekend at the end of this month.

Meanwhile 33-year-old Kim took to Twitter to set rumours to rest that she was already married to Kanye.

She wrote: 'We are not married yet!'

Justin Bieber continues feud with Seth Rogen claiming he was shy

Justin Bieber has finally responded to Seth Rogen's recent harsh remarks about him when Seth called him 'obnoxious'. 'ungrateful', insincere, and perhaps most damning of all, 'a piece of s***'.
The 20-year-old pop star tweeted: 'Seth Rogan (sic) sorry I didnt bow down when I asked 2 meet u was probably a bit shy and didn’t want to be over the top but still. love ur movies'.
The incident referred to is when Justin asked to met Seth while they were both on a European TV show. It's unclear whether Justin deliberately spelt Seth's last name wrongly in his tweet.

War of words: Justin (left) replied to Seth's (right) appraisal of him by spelling Seth's last name wrongly

In a new interview with Howard Stern, Neighbors star Seth didn't mince words by saying, 'the kid's a d***' while adding, 'he's a good example of someone you meet, who you think you're going to hate him, and then you get to hate him as much as you thought,' reported Entertainment Tonight.

To the disbelief of Justin's teen fan base, Seth was not surprised by what he claims the controversial singer is really like.

Not a fan: Justin and Seth hung out at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards in 2011 but did not hit it off

'You meet him, and he meets up to every one of your [bad] expectations of how you hope he will be.'

According to the 32-year-old actor it was Justin who first wanted to meet him while they were both appearing on a German TV show .

'So I went outside to meet him and he was acting like I asked to meet him! It was very nonchalant, 'Yo man. Sup,' and I'm like, 'What the f***, I don't want to meet you.'

Not too worries: Seth didn't seem to perturbed by Justin's response when he and wife Lauren Miller walked their dog in New York

The Baby singer's too cool for school attitude didn't sit well with Rogen.

'Don't act all nonplussed to meet me. I didn't want to meet you! I was totally cool not meeting you,' he recounted.

'But I was like, fine, I wouldn’t have said anything, I was like, 'Aye, he's a bit of a mother*cker. He's young, the kid's a d***.'

The two stars would meet up a few years later at an MTV Awards ceremony but unfortunately Justin would leave a similar impression again.

'He literally had a snake wrapped around his f***ing wrist that he was wearing. I was like, what the f***?' said Rogen.

Lashing out: The 32-year-old voiced his disdain for the pop star in a tweet back in January
