Love Island star Helena Ford appears to take a swipe at rivals as show feud explodes
LOVE Island's Helena Ford may have sent a subtle dig at her fellow reality TV stars just weeks after leaving the Spanish villa. Helena was in a relationship with Harry Cooksley for much of this year's Love Island series, until he decided to recouple with Shakira Khan and would go on to be runners-up. 5 Love Island star Helena Ford appears to take a swipe at some of her show rivals Credit: @helenaforddd / TikTok 5 She seemed to poke fun at Shakira, Yasmin and Toni Credit: @helenaforddd / TikTok 5 Helena was dumped by Harry who moved on with Shakira Credit: @helenaforddd / TikTok 5 Shakira, Toni and Yasmin said they made good friends in the villa Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The blonde bombshell posted a video to TikTok showing her sitting in a hairdressers' chair, with her hair full of foils and it eventually cut to the final result. But it was in the voiceover to which Helena mimed to, that she may have taken a swipe at her fellow contestants, Shakira, Toni Laites and Yasmin Pettet. The audio was a clip from an interview with actress Ariana Greenblatt, who played the 'mean girl' daughter in the Barbie movie. Ariana says: "Whatever, we all know blondes have more fun, because their bleach is in their hair, let's talk about it." Helena's use of the audio could be seen as a dig to Shakira, Toni and Yasmin, who were often billed as the being given the 'mean girls' edit during this series of Love Island. Her TikTok also coincided with the release of an i-D Magazine feature interview with the three Islanders where they talked about feeling grateful they could represent brunettes and in Shakira's case, the South Asian community. "What have I signed up for?" Shakira said in the i-D interview. 'Everyone's gonna love the blonde hair, blue-eyed girls, we see year in year out on Love Island. I thought, based on initial attraction, it wasn't going to go well for me, but I was pleasantly surprised.' Shakira, Toni and Yasmin also addressed the ongoing feuds and rivalries in the villa describing at "classic High School behaviour". 'We felt that massively in the changing room, the snickers, the whispers, the dirty look," Shakira said. "When you come around the corner and they stop talking, you feel isolated, it feels frosty, really tense, and it's not nice. "It wasn't a bad edit; we tried to fix it, but that was our experience, we lived it.' Despite having a rocky relationship with some of their co-stars, the trio stuck together and gracefully took on every obstacle thrown at them. Toni won the series alongside Cach and scooped a prize of £50k, while Shakira and Harry and Yas and Jamie are also going strong. Despite each bagging themselves a new fella, they have proudly said that the real prize is the friendships they made.

DJ hilariously duped by fake Justin Bieber
An American DJ and producer has revealed how he was 'duped' by a Justin Bieber impersonator during a recent music set. 37-year-old Gryffin was at XS Nightclub in Las Vegas over the weekend where he was conned into letting the fraudster on stage to sing a Justin Bieber son. In fairness, when you take into consideration the dark nightclub, loud music, and smoke machines, you can't blame night-time revelers for being wishful in thinking it was Bieber. 37-year-old Gryffin was at XS Nightclub in Las Vegas over the weekend where he was conned into letting the fraudster on stage to sing a Justin Bieber son. Pic: Gryffin/ TikTok Taking to TikTok, Gryffin shared the hilarious anecdote with followers, starting out with a clip of the impersonator, who has been dubbed Bustin Jeiber, standing on the stage in front of the DJ decks. 'BIEBER IN THE HOUSE Y'ALL' Gryffin can be heard yelling, as the impersonator looks downwards covering his full face. Gryffin explained that it all started when Bustin Jeiber showed up to the club, with a clip of the lookalike dressed in a grey hoodie and black jacket as well as a pair of black shades. The DJ was then approached and told Justin/Bustin wanted to get in on the performance — the DJ even went up and spoke to the joker and his 'team' and was none the wiser. @gryffin biebergate2025 #justinbieber ♬ original sound – Gryffin It was settled that they would get a rendition of Sorry, with the place going 'wild' to think the 31-year-old was there. 'After 4 minutes and 27 seconds of what sounded like Justin Bieber, I found out the worst news imaginable,' Gryffin revealed. The next clip saw Gryffin following the collab beaming as he said 'that was insane' a number of times. The TikTok video has gone viral with many taking to the comments expressing their delight at the hilarious con. Pic: Gryffin/ TikTok 'COMPLETE FAKE,' Gryffin is told, with his jaw dropping to the floor. 'No way,' he responded in disbelief. 15 minutes later, Gryffin was still coming to terms with being duped, with another clip seeing the DJ admitting he had thought Bieber had 'put on a little weight.' The TikTok video has gone viral with many taking to the comments expressing their delight at the hilarious con. One person shared a picture alongside the impersonator, writing: 'I'm happy you got just as played as I did.' Another added: 'This whole thing is just insane and hilarious and maybe even better than actually having the real one there.' A third noted: 'It's alarming how easily he was able to prank everyone. The fact that a random guy made it to the stage is impressive. Is he a singer? Or is he lip syncing?' A fourth brilliantly pointed out: 'Also a bit ironic that the song he chose was Sorry.'

People say I have the ‘nicest council house they've seen' & it's infuriated trolls who say ‘that's where our taxes go'
Read on for how to get a council house HOUSE THIS People say I have the 'nicest council house they've seen' & it's infuriated trolls who say 'that's where our taxes go' A WOMAN who showed off her new council house has been trolled as people claim they're paying for it. Robyn, a mum-of-one from the UK, was thrilled to get a house she could call home after being in temporary accommodation for four months. 2 Robyn had finally got her dream council house Credit: 2 But not everyone was pleased for the mum Credit: Advertisement The mum shared her new council house in a recent TikTok video and it left people stunned. The new house had two large bedrooms, a modern kitchen, two bathrooms, plenty of storage space and a front room leading to a massive garden. And despite most council houses being outdated, hers was brand new as it was in a newbuild complex. Robyn wrote: "After four long months of being in temporary accommodation, me and my one-year-old have been offered my dream home." Advertisement The swanky council house featured grey walls, silver hardware and marble tiles. Of course, Robyn was feeling lucky and excited for the next chapter of her life in the new home. In the comments, she revealed she had to bid for it like with most council homes and was fortunately accepted. However, it seemed that not everyone was happy with the mum's new home. Advertisement Some cruel trolls took to the comments of the video which went viral on her TikTok account @robynl2000 with over 943k views. Some were claiming it was their taxes that were funding the house, with some stating it was better than theirs. I'm trolled for 'wasting my money' by making my council house nice - but I plan to stay here for years so I won't stop One person wrote: "Are you going to thank me for working hard paying taxes to pay for your home? You're welcome." Another commented: "Nice! I have to go to work." "That's a council house? That's mental. Mine had no skirting boards and kitchen cupboards hanging off when I got mine," penned a third. Advertisement Meanwhile a fourth said: "Damn these council houses are better than the ones I can afford to buy working 63hours a week. Minimum." How can I get a council house? To apply for a council home, you need to fill out and hand in an application to your local authority. To find your local authority, simply use the Government's council locator tool on its website. Once you have access to your local council's website, it should offer you guidelines on how to complete your application. After applying, you'll most likely have to join a waiting list. Bear in mind, even if you are put on a waiting list, this doesn't guarantee you a council house offer. Your council should also offer you advice on how to stay in your current home and solve any issues you might have, such as problems with a private landlord or mortgage. You are eligible to apply for council housing if you are a British citizen living in the UK providing have not lived abroad recently. Each council has its own local rules about who qualifies to go on the housing register in its area, but it is based on "points" or a "banding" system. For example, you're likely to be offered housing first if you: are homeless live in cramped conditions have a medical condition made worse by your current home are seeking to escape domestic violence Once you are high enough on a council's waiting list, it will contact you when a property is available. Some councils let people apply at the age of 18, while others let you apply even sooner at 16-year-olds. EU workers and their families and refugees may also be eligible. A council house is reached through a points system, so depending on your housing needs, you may be considered low priority. The council will contact you about any available property once you are high enough on the waiting list. There is no limit on how long you can expect to be on the waiting list. "Wait what? That's the nicest council house I've seen,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: "This is a council house ?! That's actually insane it's absolutely beautiful, it's honestly about time they took care of their properties as some are in terrible condition and they expect families to live in them with mould."
