Let's celebrate the end of Lent by doing everything we pretended to give up for Lent


Watch Jimmy Fallon make speedy costume changes to play both young and old John Travolta in one 'SNL' sketch.

0

"Celebrity Family Feud" returned to SNL again last night, but this time with a twist: time travel. That means that stars from the 1970's were playing against stars from 2017. "Now, you probably asking yourself, 'how the hell did this time travel thing happen,'" Steve Harvey says to the audience. "And here's my answer: I don't know." But that is the beauty of comedy: it don't need explainin'.

Harry Styles, the musical guest for the episode, showed up in this sketch as a shaky Mick Jagger from the 70's and made fun of himself a little bit by saying (in character) that it's a bad idea to leave a band to make solo records (something that Styles is currently doing, as he stepped away from his band One Direction). But the focus of the sketch is on Jimmy Fallon, who is tasked with playing both young John Travolta (who is basically just Danny from Grease and keeps talking about Sandy) and modern-day John Travolta (who is very vaguely spiritual, but clearly being held hostage by Scientology).

While all of the impressions are quite funny, the sketch basically becomes about the fact that the writers created a premise that pimps Fallon into running around the stage and switching costumes like a madman. It feels a bit like an inside joke created just for the SNL veteran, but it still manages to keep the audience excited to see if he can pull it off, as the cuts get closer and closer. In one scene, as old Travolta, you can see Fallon's sideburns are askew, as if he didn't have enough time to firmly press them down, or they got ripped off when pulling off Young Travolta's wig. Hey, that's the magic of live comedy, baby!

I'm just glad they're having fun with it. Watch it here:

It's too bad this 'Turtle Shirt' from 'SNL' isn't real, because we'd buy a whole bunch of them.

I remember so many awkward moments when it would have been great to disappear completely—or, failing that, just hide. Maybe you've had similar experiences in social settings. Why isn't there an easy way out of embarrassment?

Well, there would be if this "Turtle Shirt" from Saturday Night Live were a real product. At the moment, we'll have to settle for laughing about the possibility, but maybe... someday... look, I can dream, can't I?

You know who could really use one of these? Sean Spicer.

Trump went on an Easter morning Twitter rant about paid protestors, and nobody is having it.

This morning, probably in a fit of outrage over not finding as many chocolate-filled eggs as a 6-year-old, Trump turned to Twitter to let off some steam. I wish that I could crawl inside of this man's brain for the early morning hours during which he ruminates on, writes and publishes these tweets, but I fear experiencing the insanity that closely would irrevocably damage me. Or flat out kill me. Things started out nice with a happy Easter message:

Perhaps he tweeted this before the RIGGED egg hunt, when he was in good spirits. But then things quickly went south (very unfair!). For some reason, Trump is still thinking about the election:

As if his winning the electoral college is going to make us forget that he has yet to release his tax returns? His remarks are in response to the tax marches that took place yesterday in major cities across the country, and were held just a few days away from Tax Day (which is Tuesday 4/18) as a reminder that Trump has yet to release his taxes. Then, smdh, he brought up paid protesters:

Within minutes, Trump who had just asked us to remember his glorious victory in the election, tells us that it's over! And he also resurfaces the claim that protesters are being paid. Well, everyone has had quite enough of that, so they spent their Easter mornings firing back at Trump and letting him know that they don't get paid to protest because their actions are fueled by rage, and rage alone. Here were some of the best responses to Trump's insane claim that people are getting paid to participate in rallies and marches against the President:

LOL happy Easter.

April the giraffe's new baby just had his first vet check-up, and he's a handsome, healthy boy.

After weeks in which observers noted their extreme impatience, April—a 15-year-old giraffe who lives at Animal Adventure Park in Harpursville, New York—gave birth to a baby boy in front of a rapt internet audience. The long wait was over, the pregnancy conspiracy theories were debunked, and mom was very happy.

Now zookeepers are getting to know April's as-yet-unnamed son, and he just had his first veterinary check-up on Easter morning. Although they saw an expected weight drop, he looks to be a healthy boy in every way—and look how handsome!

4/16 Morning Update

Vet Check and a Thumbs Up

This morning the team got hands on with baby to do a full vet check and record height and weight.

Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 129 lbs
(there is a weight drop the first 24 hours)

Baby checks out just perfect!

Nursing strongly this morning without any concerns.

April has recovered perfectly and is eating everything in sight!

I don't know what's crazier—that a baby animal can be born that huge, or that it has to fall about six feet to the ground when it comes out of the womb.

And to think we assumed we could get back to our lives after April gave birth. Now we just want to read updates on the baby every day. Animal Adventure Park has also announced a fundraising effort to name the new long-necked little dude, with money going toward giraffe conservation efforts in the wild.

We have a baby boy; and he will need a name! http://nameaprilscalf.com Submit your votes! Funds raised will be...

Can someone remind me why I didn't grow up to be a zookeeper like I said I would when I was nine years old? Because I really dropped the ball on that.

Survivor contestant who outed teammate Zeke Smith as trans was fired from his real-life job.

0
0

Survivor contestant Jeff Varner was unanimously voted off the show after he outed fellow tribemate Zeke Smith as transgender during last week's episode. He did so in an attempt to paint Smith as an untrustworthy character with secrets, but the move, which caused a wave of outrage and backlash, ended up causing his own undoing. Now, Peoplereports, Varner has even be fired from his actual job.

Varner, who is a real estate agent was fired from his former employer Allen Tate Realtors on Thursday. Their comment was that Varner was "in the middle of a news story that we don’t want anything to do with." That, and probably they thought he was a bad character after what he did to Smith.

In the 10 months since the show was taped, Varner says he's down a lot of growing up and reflecting. "I have spent 10 months stewing in this awful, horrible mistake I have made," he told EW Morning Live. "I have been through, I don’t know how much therapy. With the show’s therapist, with a local therapist. I have met with and spoken to several LGBT organizations — I’ve joined the board of a couple of them… this has changed me drastically."

While Varner is openly gay, he clearly harbored some very discriminatory and negative views towards transgender people at the time he made the comment on the show. But now he says he's ready to apologize.

"This is about Zeke. I can only profusely apologize. I have apologized to him — we’ve spoken several times on the phone. He continually forgives me. I am amazed and moved at his ability to do that. I know that forgiveness is difficult. I know that he has a lot of people in his ear. I know that watching this last night was traumatic not only for me and my family — I can only imagine what this was like for him and his friends and everybody who loves him."

The added layer of strangeness for all of this is of course that the incident occurred many months ago, so it's almost as if Varner and Smith had to relive the entire painful experience for the second time, in a far more public way. And, as we've seen with Varner being fired from his professional job, these choices have lasting effects when they become viral news stories. Hopefully they both can continue the healing process amidst the public airing of what happened.

Harry Styles debuted a new song on 'SNL' and fans are freaking out because they can't stream it yet.

With his performances on Saturday Night Live—including a turn as a young Mick Jagger—the anticipation for Harry Styles' self-titled debut album has reached fever pitch. The ex-One Direction pop star led off with his first single, the slow-burn epic ballad "Sign of the Times," which sounded pretty amazing.

But it was his unusual decision to premiere a new song, "Ever Since New York," that really got the fans' attention. It's a more conventional, deceptively simple guitar-based tune, though no less sultry than "Sign of the Times."

People loved it! There was just one problem. Where the heck can you listen to it besides on SNL's YouTube channel? And when's the album version coming?

There's still no word about when "Ever Since New York" will drop on iTunes and Spotify, but if people have to wait until the album itself comes out—on May 12—then they may want to try and get comfortable. Or keep tweeting, whatever.

Salt Bae is up to his old tricks again. The Turkish chef responsible for giving us a way to express that feeling when you add a bit *extra* in life just voted in a Turkish referendum in exactly the way you'd expect.

What a strange thing, for the subject of an accidental viral meme to start doing an impression of himself on purpose. It almost feels a bit hollow to become a caricature of oneself instead of simply appreciating the brief wave of fame and then letting it subside. "Stop clinging to it," I think, wishing his ego the ability to let fame fade. But alas, we always want more.

And here I am, writing a post about it, perpetuating Salt Bae's stretch of internet fame, giving him what he wanted, which, in truth, we all want: to be loved, to be remembered.

United kicked a couple off their plane for basically no reason. They were flying to their wedding.

0
0

Apparently the airline that can't figure out how to deal with an overbooked flight without calling the police to assault one of their passengers—and won't let little girls board its planes in leggings—is at it again. The ugly incident wasn't exactly violent or sexist this time, but in a way it seems even weirder.

On Saturday, Michael Hohl and Amber Maxwell boarded a United flight with friends and family in Houston after flying down from Salt Lake City. The group's final destination was Costa Rica, where Maxwell and Hohl plan to get married on Thursday. But the couple, who were last to get on the plane, discovered a man lying down asleep in their row of seats. Noticing that the cabin was far from full, they simply sat down a few rows ahead—but still in the coach section.

At that point, they said, a flight attendant demanded to know why they weren't in their correct seats, and wouldn't take "uh, there's a guy asleep there" for an answer. (Also, that's not even proper positioning for takeoff!) Eventually, and despite the fact that they woke up the mystery napper, an air marshal arrived and told the pair they would have to deboard. "We thought not a big deal, it’s not like we are trying to jump up into a first-class seat," Hohl told ABC affiliate News13."We were simply in an economy row a few rows above our economy seat."

United, meanwhile, accused the bride and groom of disorderly conduct, a charge they both deny. "We’re disappointed anytime a customer has an experience that doesn’t measure up to their expectations," the company said in a statement. These passengers repeatedly attempted to sit in upgraded seating, which they did not purchase, and they would not follow crew instructions to return to their assigned seats. We’ve been in touch with them and have rebooked them on flights tomorrow." Ooooookay. Whatever you say, you psychotic airline.

Obviously, Maxwell and Hohl will be thinking twice before flying the unfriendly skies with United again. But Maxwell's stepfather Michael Gallagher probably had the best take on the drama: "Truthfully, we all worried that maybe something would happen in Costa Rica, and we were willing to deal with that," he said. "Never in our wildest dreams did we think United was going to screw it up in Houston, Texas." Hey, at least they're consistently on-brand these days.

Wait, Rihanna's Coachella outfit is kind of terrifying.

Every year, hundreds of people grab their flower crowns and flock to the middle of nowhere for Coachella, a music festival known for outlandish fashion. Fans and artists will use the multi-day concert to don their craziest clothes, and this year, singer Rihanna was among them, wearing a crystal encrusted ensemble that may have crossed the line from bold to outright scary.

phresh out.

Behold Rihanna! The shiny haunted mannequin of your nightmares!

The bedazzled bodysuit is from Alessandro Michele’s Gucci Fall 2017 runway show, and if we are being completely honest, the "Work" singer looks a sparkly Slenderman in the outfit.

SCARY (but also fabulous).

Hey, can she breath in there? Coachella Valley is hot AF. Plus, it looks sooo itchy. How much does that thing weigh? Why is she wearing sunglasses? Rihanna, we are worried about you.

Fortunately, the outfit looks a little more comfortable (and a lot less terrifying) without the headpiece.

Sunday was Easter, that most holy of Christian holidays where Jesus rose from the dead and donned a bunny suit. The Kardashian family held an Easter party, and dad Kanye West pulled dad duty by dressing up as the Easter bunny for his kids, North and Saint. His wife, Kim Kardashian, posted an Instagram of the Kanye in the giant rabbit suit, surrounded by kids, captioned "Dadye."

Here are all the ridiculous things celebrities wore to Coachella this weekend.

Weekend one of Coachella 2017 has come and gone, and as is tradition, celebrities turned up to the outdoor music festival in their most outlandish outfits that we will all somehow forgive, because isn't weird fashion the whole point of Coachella?

Sure, you would never be caught dead in these crazy ensembles, and the celebrities wearing them probably wouldn't either 362 days of the year, but all bets are off when you travel to the middle of a desert for a weekend at Coachella. So here are some of the wackiest, boldest and "best" (relatively speaking) outfits of Coachella 2017...so far.

Hailee Steinfeld wore a t-shirt and shoes. And that's it?

Easter 2017 has come to an end, and if you haven't finished gnawing on your giant chocolate bunny, then you have more self-control than us. Meanwhile, everyone's favorite dermatologist Dr. Sandra Lee (a.k.a. Dr. Pimple Popper) stayed busy over the holiday weekend, uploading a jam-packed Easter video featuring a supercut of her best and most egg-like pops of all time. No need to go looking for those hidden eggs this year—Dr. Lee has found them buried inside her patients' bodies.

Here's the popaholic Easter challenge: watch this while eating jelly beans. If you can make it through the whole video, you know you're a hardcore fan.

A source told People that Janet Jackson and her husband Wissam Al Mana split soon after baby Eissa was born on January 3. The source claimed that “The cultural differences between [Jackson] and Wissam became even more obvious [after Eissa arrived]. They come from very different worlds.” The pair do plan on continuing to co-parent Eissa, though.

The source added, “Janet is all about the baby and is okay."


Prince Harry opens up about years of 'total chaos,' seeking therapy over his mom's death.

0

Prince Harry very famously, very tragically lost his mother Princess Diana at the age of 12. For the first time, Prince Harry opened up about how he sought help to cope with her passing.

In an interview forThe Telegraph's "Mad World" podcast, Prince Harry discussed seeking mental health counseling after two years of "total chaos" in his late twenties.

The prince told The Telegraph's Byrony Gordon how he "shut down" after losing Princess Diana, and that it was his brother Prince William who encouraged him to seek help.

"I can safely say that losing my mum at the age of 12, and therefore shutting down all of my emotions for the last 20 years, has had a quite serious effect on not only my personal life but my work as well," he revealed.

"My way of dealing with it was sticking my head in the sand, refusing to ever think about my mum, because why would that help?" he said of losing Princess Diana. “[I thought] it’s only going to make you sad, it’s not going to bring her back. So from an emotional side, I was like ‘right, don’t ever let your emotions be part of anything’."

Prince Harry explains that as soon as he started opening up, "all of this grief that I have never processed started to come to the 
forefront and I was like, there is actually a lot of stuff here that I need to deal with."

Attending to his royal duties, Prince Harry struggled with anxiety, feeling "fight or flight" impulses kick in.

Now, the prince is bravely using his platform to encourage others to seek help: "I know there is huge merit in talking about your issues and the only thing about keeping it quiet is that it’s only ever going to make it worse," he said.

Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate Middleton Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, run Heads Together, a campaign to fight stigma and to promote mental health.

"What we are trying to do is normalize the conversation to the point where anyone can sit down and have a coffee and just go ‘you know what, I’ve had a really s--- day, can I just tell about it? Because then you walk away and it’s done," he explained.

"Because of the process I have been through over the past two and a half years, I've now been able to take my work seriously, been able to take my private life seriously and well, and been able to put blood, sweat and tears into the things that really make a difference and things that I think will make a difference to everybody else."

Prince Harry's royal subjects are proud of him for speaking up, hoping that it inspires others to do the same.

Mental health issues don't care if you're a prince or if you're privileged. Brain chemistry doesn't care who your grandmother is, and Prince Harry has struggling in common with the commoners.

Princess Diana, who herself opened up about her mental health issues and worked to highlight issues around the world, would be very proud.

5. Geraldo Rivera, because he got burned by John Oliver.

On Sunday's episode of Last Week Tonight, host John Oliver took aim at one of his favorite targets: Fox News. Lambasting the cable network for glorifying the recent bomb attack in Afghanistan, Oliver played a clip from Fox & Friends, which featured footage of the "mother of all bombs" dropping on Afghanistan while Toby Keith's "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" blared in the background. It was quite a moment.

In the clip, special guest Geraldo Rivera said, "One of my favorite things in 16 years at Fox News is watching bombs drop on bad guys." Oliver responded:

That’s a coincidence because one of my favorite things in four seasons on this show is getting to look into the camera and say, "F**k you Geraldo, I hope your mustache gets caught in a box fan."

Ouch. Of course, Oliver should have known that Rivera never backs down from a threat on his mustache.

Good point, Geraldo. Maybe if it's such a serious story, it would be more tasteful not to turn it into a music video. On the news.


4. Drake, because he got racially profiled at Coachella.

He's not used to this kind of rudeness. He's from Canada.

Rapper/turtleneck model Drake is currently soaking up the California desert sun at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, along with every other celebrity on the planet. Perhaps the festival was hoping Drake would bring some much-needed credibility to help shake the annual event's longstanding association with cultural appropriation, privilege, and dumbass flower crowns. If so, they're out of luck.

In a cryptic yet fiery Instagram post on Sunday, the rapper blasted the Madison Club for "racial profiling," calling it "the most offensive place I have every stayed at in my life." His fans across the world were shocked—a golf course and country club that racially profiled guests? Who ever heard of such a thing?

Drake wound up deleting the post, but the damage was done. Screenshots of it spread across the internet like sunscreen on a pale Coachella guest's exposed midriff. Soon, hardcore Drizzy fans were ganging up on the Madison Club online, flooding it with negative reviews on his behalf.

In the comments on Drake's original post, the club tried to control the situation by promising that a "formal apology" was on its way, writing, "We will also be investigating this as we do not tolerate racial discrimination." But considering that Drake's post has been deleted, they're better get cracking on that apology. Otherwise, they might never host another hip hop fan again. Although it sounds like they would be fine with that.


3. Tori Spelling, because the IRS drank her milkshake.

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott at the Kids' Choice Awards, where they thought the feds would never find them.

We've reported before on Tori Spelling's money problems, but they just keep getting worse. It seems like no matter what she does, the former Beverly Hills, 90210 star can't control her spending. And when she tries to cut back, she skimps on the wrong things—like paying her taxes.

Last summer, she and her husband Dean McDermott were hit with a $259,108.23 lien for unpaid state taxes dating back to 2014. Soon after, they were hit with a $707,480.30 lien in unpaid federal taxes. Added together, those oustanding debts total way more than the DVD royalties she's pulling in from made-for-TV hits like 1996's Mother, May I Sleep With Danger?

Mother, May I Pay My Taxes With Danger?

Now, Spelling and McDermott's long history of tax evasion has finally caught up with them. The IRS has totally drained their bank accounts. Luckily, they have many rich and famous friends who can help them out in their time of need. But if I were giving them a loan, I wouldn't count on getting it back anytime soon.


2. A professor who's suing Wal-Mart for throwing stinky shade at him on his fishing license.

Dr. Gilbert Kalonde is an assistant professor of technology education at Montana State University, and an amateur fisherman. In April 2015, he went to his local Wal-Mart to buy a fishing license. During the process, a Wal-Mart employee asked Kalonde what he does for a living. He explained he was a professor and provided his MSU credentials. But evidently, that wasn't good enough for this smartass clerk. The Bozeman Daily Chronicle reports that when Kalonde received his license, it listed his occupation as "clean toilets."

Dr. Gilbert Kalonde, Ph.D. He doesn't clean toilets.

There are multiple reasons why this prank is especially offensive. First of all, the man is a professor of higher learning. Also, he's an immigrant (from Zambia), which adds a possible discriminatory motive. And finally, "clean toilets" is not a job. It's not even a noun.

The worst part is that Kalonde didn't even notice the sabotage until years later. He renewed his fishing license in 2016, and although he again made it clear he was a damn professor, his new license also said "clean toilets." He still had no idea, however, until he showed it to his teaching assistant and a few students, who asked if he had changed jobs. That's when he got mad.

Professor Kalonde is suing Wal-Mart for libel, claiming that the megastore wanted to expose him to "hatred, contempt, ridicule or obloquy." I know he's a man of letters, but he might want to dumb down the language of his lawsuit. The word "obloquy" might fly over the head of the guy who wrote "clean toilets."


1. This kid who lost his hat to an overenthusiastic Donald Trump.

At Monday morning's White House Easter Egg Roll (which was a giant mess), President Trump took some time out from not reading to the children to sign some memorabilia. One young fan asked him to sign his beloved "Make America Great Again" baseball cap, and the president was happy to oblige. But then he got carried away.

Did you see that? He threw the kid's hat away! Now the kid has no hat! Some Easter this turned out to be.

If President Trump really cares about the youth of America as much as he says, he'll launch a full Secret Service investigation into finding that hat. It'll be the least frivolous expense of his administration so far.

Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are one of the most hilarious celebrity couples out there, especially when they're giving us a glimpse into their little disagreements (and sharing embarrassing throwback photos). A few days ago, Dax Shepard purchased a three-wheel motorcycle for himself.

However, it seems he may have forgotten to mention it to his wife. The next day, Kristen Bell posted this hilarious Instagram, taken from the window.

President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump hosted their first White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, to celebrate the day after Easter.

President Trump opened the celebration by telling kids and their families that his agenda is moving forward.

The First Couple were as happy as ever.

It's some family-friendly fun.

People on Twitter wondered why The Day After Easter is the new Easter.

Some saw a glimpse of our Hunger Games-like future.

Or even scarier: Get Out.

Elmo took the opportunity to stand up for PBS.

This party is just as well-attended and stacked with celebrities as the inauguration.

It's First Lady Melania Trump's big event: she even left Trump Tower for it.

...and reminded Donald Trump to put America First.

People wondered what else the Easter Bunny could be hiding.

Today, we are all the Easter Bunny.

What a great preview of what's to come!

Watch Donald Trump make a kid's dream come true and then literally throw it away.

Today is President Donald Trump's first White House Easter Egg Roll, and DAMN IT, HE IS DOING IT HIS WAY!

According to this video from Politico, a kid excitedly asks the President to sign his "Make America Great Again" hat. Much to the boy's delight, Trump complies, and then proceeds to toss the cap into a crowd of people. Wait, WHAT?

"No!" shouts the kid as the President smiles. Then HE DOES IT AGAIN!

Twitter was confused. Was he purposely bullying this kid, or did he forget what he was doing as he was doing it?

Can Donald Trump just do one normal thing just once ever?
