Adele stopped her own concert to preach the gospel of Beyoncé.

Up until recently, Adele was the champion of turning heartbreak into music, the go-to creator of anthems for those who've just gotten dumped. But Beyoncé's Lemonade, an epic opera of infidelity, has taken up the mantle as the post-breakup soundtrack. With that, Adele has happily passed on the title, being one of Beyoncé's absolute biggest fans. She recently stopped a show on her 25 tour to preach the gospel of Queen Bey, calling her "Jesus f*cking Christ."

The disciple marveled at her Holiness's abilities, musing, "How is it even possible that she only ever gets better? How is that possible?... Beyoncé is the sickest artist around in the whole entire world. It’s unbelievable."

Soon we shall attend worship, sipping upon a sacrament of Lemonade.

Praise be to Beysus, her disciple Adele, gifts unto us all.

Well, it finally happened. Someone in the Kardashian/Jenner clan decided to get married.

Lol, jk. Kim is on her third marriage, after all. And who knows WTF is happening with Rob.

Still, this is exciting news for Brody Jenner, Caitlyn Jenner's son, who is dipping his toes into the marriage pool for the first time. He made the announcement of his engagement to Kaitlynn Carter on Instagram on Friday:

Another Kaitlynn in his life, and this time with the Klassic K. And if you're curious what Kaitlynn looks like when she isn't doing her impression of a giant leg creature, here's her face:

Happy couple 😁

Crushing gummy bears with a hydraulic press is strangely soothing, despite how violent it is.

If you are looking for a calorie free way to enjoy candy, don't eat it—crush it with a hydraulic press. (No, this is not a weight loss infomercial.) The Hydraulic Press Channel on YouTube crushes a whole bunch of household items, squishing things down in a inexplicably hypnotic way. In the past, they have crushed fruit, TVs, and even a bowling ball, but nothing has been more strangely soothing than crushing gummy bears

The host's thick Finnish accent and the maniacal laughter heard in the background of the video only seem fitting as the poor, innocent gummy bears get squished into a colorful, sugary mess. Eventually, when the host trades out the army of regular sized gummy bears for one extra large one, things get even more hypnotic.It is just what your brain needs after the work week—a visual representation of what your brain feels like after the work week. 

Artist celebrates friend's weight loss by putting both versions of her in a photo shoot.

After his friend Beth Beard lost 150 pounds, Toronto-based photographer Blake Morrow captured a series of pop culture-inspired portraits titled "The Beth Project." The photos, which were shot two years apart, each feature old Beth whimsically interacting with new Beth. 

In an email interview, Morrow told Someecards: "It was important to me to not suggest that 'Before' Beth was negative while 'After' Beth was perfect, so we used humor to convey a tongue-in-cheek element in many of the portraits."

Two weeks before Beard underwent gastric bypass surgery in spring 2012, Morrow snapped photos of Beard for the "before" bit of the series. He shot a total of twelve photos that show Beard wearing the costumes of various characters. After Beard’s stunning weight change two years later, the pair scheduled a second shoot for the “after” photos. After the shoot, Morrow combined the before and after images of Beth into a single photo. 

Morrow said that Beth was very "comfortable with poking fun at herself and the limitations she had before her journey." He added that "it was vitally important for me to communicate her strong character and spirit in my portraits of her, no matter her size."

Beth is a photographer as well, so during the creation process "it was a plus to be able to walk through ideas with a subject who could understand the elements involved and all of the moving pieces that I had to bring together to make it all work," he said.

"Beth and I both love pop culture and all things geeky, so I steered us towards recreating pop culture moments ingrained in our media. It was really important to me to convey Beth’s fun-loving heart in the shots, while also giving her something to project upon, character-wise," Morrow said of the pop culture inspiration in the photos.

"For instance, I asked Beth if there was a famous painting or painter we could emulate, and she mentioned her love of Frida Kahlo’s 'Frida Y Diego Rivera,' which led to me shooting her as both Frida and her husband Diego. In taking on characters, it gave Beth a unique way to communicate facets of herself."

The series went viral after it was put on display at the Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival in Toronto last year. The majority of feedback the pair received for the series was positive. "Many people wrote letters sharing that the series helped them decide to make change in their own lives," Morrow said.

On the other hand, someone criticized Morrow for being sexist because he put "Beth in heels for some of her 'After' shots." But, he explained, "in reality, Beth felt more comfortable and girly wearing them at that stage." Do you, Beth! Do you.

Morrow's other projects include book covers, and TV and movie visuals. He recently finished a large photo series with "a male model friend called "#30DaysOfJesse." He described the series as "a collection of 30 fun, sexy and strange portraits that I released once a day over a month on my Instagram platform." He is now working on that second part of the project which will be unveiled this coming June, called "#30DaysOfBritt."

Wife updating husband on friend's surgery accidentally reveals she cheated, and that she can't crop screenshots.

Redditor absolutec is going through some issues with his marriage but took the time to share his personal drama with the Internet. According to him, his wife and he "have been working on things...until she sent me this screenshot about a delayed surgery. My name isn't Austin." Here's the screenshot that's ending their marriage (or simply giving them something more to talk about):

Confused? So were many redditors. Like bulletm, who wrote, "You're gonna have to explain this. I read it 4 times and I'm totally lost,."

Let's take a step back.

absolutec and his wife have a friend undergoing surgery. The wife learnt some new information from her friend, with whom she'd been corresponding about an extramarital love interest, Austin. The wife took a screenshot of the text exchange as a quick way to fill in her husband about their friend's surgery updates. The wife failed to crop the photo before sending the screenshot to her husband, thus informing him that she kissed another guy. Got it?

One day soon—or in about 10 seconds—it'll all make sense.

OK, speculation time. Option 1: This is fake. Option 2: It happened and this wife truly cannot use a phone. There's evidence for this: the lack of cropping and her depleted battery. Option 3: She knew what her husband would see, and this is her passive aggressive way of saying she's moved on.

All of these options suck, because either the Internet is lying once more, or shit is going down with absolutec and his wife.

A guy read a book during Beyoncé's concert, but the Internet forgave him because he's adorable.

Some people would give an arm and a leg to seeBeyoncé​​ perform live, but this guy, who brought his book to the Formation World Tour concert in Raleigh, North Carolina, is definitely not one of them.

Twitter user @hellomichelleg uploaded the video of the man, who seemed to be so into whatever he was reading that he didn't even glance up to watch Beyoncé sing her famous song "Drunk In Love." The video has since gone viral, so move over, Beyoncé cause this man is the real star now!

Eventually, ABC 11 WTVD caught up with the mysterious bibliophile, identified as George Papageorgiou, who explained that yeah, he thinks Beyoncé is hot and stuff, but he is just not into her music.

According to a Twitter user who claims to know the family personally, Papageorgiou was accompanying his daughter to the concert.

Say what you want, but that man certainly knows how to follow his bliss. And if you were curious as to what book could be so interesting that Papageorgiou couldn't put it down even during a Beyoncé concert, it is The Danube Pilot by Jules Verne, written in Greek. He also said he has already read the book about eight times, but it would seem that it is still more interesting to him than listening to Beyoncé sing.


Tragic Fort McMurray wildfire has one upside: a plane full of dogs.

As a wildfire in Fort McMurray, Alberta causes destruction akin to "a war zone," it appears Canadian North airlines is letting pets normally consigned to the cargo area ride alongside their humans, according to CBC Nova Scotia.

Sorry, there are no more peanuts.

"It's pretty challenging," Vice President of Edmonton International Airport, Traci Bednard, told CBC News regarding the extreme demand for flights out of the area. While commercial airline service was suspended from Fort McMurray for a time, "airlines, such as Canadian North, stepped in to help with evacuations."

It seems that meant bending the rules a little bit, and giving up elbow-room to accommodate more paws.

"The guy next to me kept licking my face."
This is still an unheard of amount of leg room.
This guy's all business.
Is he in line for the bathroom?
One of these dogs may have taken an Ambien.

Canadian commenters loved the gesture, as did the rest of the world.

Even more polite than usual.

Being a big celebrity means no respite from relentless fans even on vacation, as John Stamos showed in an Instagram video he posted of him meeting a fan. Stamos, however, was afforded a slight break from being his bafflingly handsome self, as the fan thought he was Rob Lowe.

It's hard to tell what's happening in this video as Stamos's very unbuttoned shirt is rather distracting. There's obviously some confusion on the part of the John Stamos Rob Lowe fan.

A dude (who looks a little bit like the TMZ guy but is actually comedian Greg Benson) went to Hollywood to prank the balls out of some unsuspecting tourists. Never trust a man who willingly offers to take a photo of you, because he's going to magic himself into the background of that photo and film you freaking out.

Benson uses a cardboard cutout of himself to take the "magic" photos, because apparently people looking at a camera are not capable of distinguishing between a 2D mock-up and and 3D jokester.

You?! Why? Why why why why why? ... Why?

Why?

The most tragic moment comes around the 40 second mark, when Benson asks a couple if they want another photo of them, this time without him in the background. They oblige, and then he shows up in that one, too.  

See, Internet pranks don't always need to be mean-spirited and ruthlessly deceptive. They can also be fun and moderately deceptive.

On Wednesday, maternity photographer Anna Elizabeth Malpass posted a series of somewhat unconventional gender reveal photos. If you're not familiar with the concept, gender reveals are a way to let everyone know your baby's gender without just posting one of those blurry sonogram photos on Facebook. This couple decided to do their gender reveal with rifles, explosives, and colorful chalk powder filling the air.

You're welcome, America.

According to the post, hubby and special forces officer Keith discovered the gender of his and his wife Jamie's unborn kid by shooting a rifle at a box that exploded with colorful powder.

Malpass wrote: "This was the most epic gender reveal I've gotten to photograph ... Love this fun and unique couple, and am so excited for their little BOY!!​"

'Tis epic-looking indeed.

The target.

You wouldn't expect this box to be filled with explosives.

The shooters.

Locked and loaded with excitement.

The baby is... A BOY!

You son of a gun.

A majority of folks in the Facebook comments think these gender reveal photos are among the coolest they've seen. Other users aren't too fond of the idea, though, like this woman named Vicki:

Nice idea, but is this really necessary? What ever happened to get the results together and love each other for it? All of this extreme is showing in our young adults trying to outdo each other. Just sayin'. Not trying to be downer, just my opinion. Not looking to open up a discussion about this. Enjoy whatever you see fit!

The couple aren't the only ones to shoot at colorful explosives for a gender reveal. See one in action, below.

Do leave the gun-wielding to the professionals. Like special forces type professionals.

The Internet is heartbroken over this 89-year-old grandmother's unattended art show.

This is 89-year-old artist Magdalene Jourdan.

She can almost paint with her eyes closed.

She has been painting for over 60 years and finally decided to show her work off at an art show at the public library in Thompson, Connecticut. Here's one of her pieces:

These birds seem so lonely, but not as lonely as a grandma alone at an art show.

Surely, after 89 years of building relationships with other people, and 60 years of creating such lifelike work, plenty of people would be happy to celebrate Magdalene's art. But Magdalene was new to the small town, and the only advertisement for the show was a Facebook event that had invited no one.

So no one came. 

It says 27 people went, but we all know that's a lie.

Like, almost no one. As granddaughter Jenean Jourdan told BuzzFeed News, only two of Magdalene's children and one of their spouses showed. And two other randos. And that was it. 

Magdalene's granddaughter, Lily Jourdan, 17, missed the show to attend her softball game, and came home to find her grandmother really upset. So she tweeted this:

It's impossible to figure out what is going to make Internet things go viral, but whatever it was, Lily Jourdan, with less than a thousand followers, got her grandma's sad picture retweeted over 15K times.  

EVERYONE got really sad for grandma. 

Really, really sad.

Like, who is this person throwing around the L word so casually?

This girl claims to know Magdalene's soul.

Some people started threatening violence to those who did not attend.

And people who probably never attend any of their Facebook events were promising their attendance at this art show.

Well, guess what, thousands of strangers who claimed they would go see grandma's art if they could, the exhibit is going on for two more weeks. Plenty of time to plan your trip to Connecticut and tell Magdalene to her sad face that she isn't foolish.  

Will the Internet really want to come together as a community to celebrate Magdalene's art? Or did y'all just need a good cry real quick?


Driver saves family from terrifying highway crash using trick he learned in a video game.

Saqid Rahman, a 21-year-old student in the UK, narrowly avoided a potentially nightmarish wreck when his car started hydroplaning during a heavy rainstorm at 70 mph on the M61 highway on April 28. To make things worse, his wife, mother, and sister were in the car with him. This story could have ended in tragedy, if Rahman weren't a millennial with lots of video game experience under his belt. Dashcam footage captured the stomach-churning moment:

Rahman, a human resources student, has only been driving for three years, but has been playing racing video games for years longer. Also, his whip is sick: a BMW 5-Series E60. He knew without thinking that he had to turn in the direction of the skid. He described his thought process to the Daily Mail:

I've never crashed before and after driving for three years and playing racing games in the past, Instinctively I knew to steer into the skid … I was not speeding and I have decent tires on the car so I was able to pull it around and then I looked behind me and there was just a queue of cars waiting for me to carry on.

Isn't that always the way? People have no respect for a near-death experience, or the lightning-quick reflexes of the trained gamer who escapes it. Keep on playing, Mr. Rahman. You're a credit to your generation.

Sources say Rihanna and Drake are hooking up, and don't you want to believe it's true?

US Weekly is reporting that Rihanna and Drake "were spotted getting cozy" at a concert after-party, and don't you really, really want this to be a sign that these two are in love and having constant sex? “Drake and Rihanna were together the whole time inside being loving,” the magazine quotes a super secret source as saying. “They were affectionate. They had their arms around each other.”

Their music videos are just sex rehearsal.

Rihanna and Drake briefly dated before, but unlike most exes, they made a music video together this year in which they hump the sh*t out of each other:

And People claims they've been "secretly dating for months." That's two sources! They're definitely getting married any day now, right? Again, here is another music video featuring the two of them. Judge for yourselves. But that is chemistry, people.

The last time Rihanna spoke about her relationship status, she said she was single, but remember that if you try hard enough, you can believe anything you want to.

Especially if it's obviously correct.

This couple tried to figure out how much their hospital birth would cost. It didn't go well.

When Johnny Harris's wife, Isabel, got pregnant, he decided to make a little video for Vox about how much giving birth in a hospital costs. He soon discovered, however, that the actual process of trying to find out those costs can be an arduous, multi-week process that doesn't even provide an accurate number when you do get a response. Basically, it's a super fun project to take on when you're also preparing for a new baby.

Spoiler alert: They had the baby.

Harris started by trying to get general hospital cost estimates. But the information he could find varied so wildly—​he found room charges ranging from $1,000 to $11,000—​that it quickly became a dead end, because for most people whose names don't end in -ardashian, a difference of $10,000 isn't just chump change. So instead, Harris tried contacting the hospital his wife was going to give birth at. That's how he ended up in a multi-week maze of phone calls, voice messages, and dead-silent hold "music."

Finally, Harris was able to get someone from the hospital on the phone who estimated that, after insurance, the couple would owe the hospital $347 for a birth without complications. She couldn't, however, explain any of the details of that. In the end, the couple had a complication-free birth (hurray!), but they owed more than $800—certainly much less than the $16,000 that the hospital originally billed their insurance company, but $500 more than the estimate they received. $500 isn't an insignificant amount of money for many people. 

Harris's takeaway: It would be really, really nice for consumers to be able to know how much they're going to pay before going to a hospital. Yup.

Mother's Day is this Sunday (you're welcome for the reminder), but before you run to the mall to buy your mother yet another scented candle, stop to read this list of moms revealing what they really want this year. She gave you the gift of life, so you could at least give her a gift she actually wants

1. This image sums it up pretty nicely.

2. Some moms are really shooting for the stars this year. 

3. Reddit user thunderkuntz just wants to enjoy the simple things.

A long, uninterrupted nap and to piss in peace.

Edit: Also, showering without someone walking into the bathroom/yelling for me from outside of it.

4. Does anyone know how much a silent butler costs for a day? 

5. Someecards writer Orli Matlow's mom just wants a cocktail this year, because she says she has already gotten the best gift.

6. Sometimes the best gift is just listening to your mother. 

7. mythopoeia's Mother's Day wish may break your heart.

Just spend some time with me. It tears me up that my kids don't think of me as a friend and barely even talk to me. My son just comes home from school and goes straight to his room, my daughter comes home from school and barely talks to me and just sits there texting. I want to be a part of their lives but they just shut me out. For mother's day I'd just like them to open up to me a little and spend some time with me. I don't know if it's because I'm a horrible parent or what, I don't know what went wrong.

8. scnavi knows that the best gifts in life are free. 

A nap. I just want a fucking nap.

9. Someecards editor Ashley Bez flipped the script and seemed more like the mother in this exchange.

10. Finally, maybe the best gift would just to get out of her hair for a little bit.

No matter what your mother/mother figure says she wants or doesn't want, just make sure you call her. Or else you'll be hearing about it until next Mother's Day.
