30. Elton John and David Furnish

30. Elton John and David Furnish

Elton John and David Furnish are one of the longest-standing same-sex couples anywhere in the celebrity spotlight. They've been together for years and have moved with the times as the laws on same-sex unions have changed in Britain. When civil partnerships were legalized, which were a formal way of recognizing a same-sex relationship that stopped just short of marriage, they bound themselves together that way in 2008.

Pop and rock legend John was never going to miss out on the opportunity to have another big party though, and so when the law changed again and allowed full marriages, they finally had their biggest of big days in December 2014. They're also parents to two sons together; Elijah and Zachary. John is looking to retire from music after one final world tour, so soon they'll be able to put their feet up and focus on the rest of their lives together.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
