Paris Jackson shared a topless Instagram with a side of body positivity.

Paris Jackson has been known to put body shamers in their place, so her latest message to her fans comes as no surprise.

The 18-year-old model posted a topless photo of herself to Instagram (don't worry, it's a classy one) on Friday, along with a message promoting body positivity.

i'll say it again for those questioning what i stand for and how i express myself. nudity started as a movement for ‘going back to nature’, ‘expressing freedom’, ‘being healthier’ and was even called a philosophy. being naked is part of what makes us human. for me it helps me feel more connected to mama gaia. i'm usually naked when i garden. it's actually a beautiful thing and you don't have to make it sexual the way many hollywood stars (and the media) do. not only is your body a temple and should be worshipped as so, but also part of feminism is being able to express yourself in your own way, whether it's being conservative and wearing lots of clothes or showing yourself. there's different ways of absorbing mother earth's energy, my favorites are earthing which is absorbing the earths vibrations from contact between the soil and your bare feet, as well as letting your naked skin absorb the rays of the sun. the human body is a beautiful thing and no matter what "flaws" you have, whether it be scars, or extra weight, stretch marks, freckles, whatever, it is beautiful and you should express yourself however you feel comfortable. if this makes some of you upset i completely understand and i encourage you to maybe no longer follow me, but i cannot apologize for this in any way. it is who i am and i refuse to shy away and keep my beliefs a secret. every one as an opinion and every one has their beliefs. we don't always agree with one another and that's okay. but again, we are all human, and to appreciate the things that other people do that make us human helps us feel connected. how can that be a bad thing?

A post shared by Paris-Michael K. Jackson (@parisjackson) on

In the caption, Jackson explained her thoughts on nudity:

Being naked is part of what makes us human. For me it helps me feel more connected to Mama Gaia [Greek translation: Mother Earth]. I'm usually naked when I garden. It's actually a beautiful thing and you don't have to make it sexual the way many Hollywood stars (and the media) do.

She went on to encourage her followers to love their bodies the way they are:

The human body is a beautiful thing and no matter what 'flaws' you have, whether it be scars, or extra weight, stretch marks, freckles, whatever, it is beautiful and you should express yourself however you feel comfortable.

Jackson acknowledged that some of her Instagram followers might not agree with her feelings on nudity or her decision to post the topless photos, but said that she wouldn't apologize for it.

"It is who I am and I refuse to shy away and keep my beliefs a secret," she wrote.


Happy National Chocolate Chip Day to everyone but raisins.

Sorry how excited I was about the hot throwback picture you posted of your mom.

New mom shares the emotional reason she decided to have a baby at age 53.

Women who want to become mothers are often pressured into doing so within a very narrow timeframe, with the threat of their "biological clock ticking," as if a woman's uterus has a time bomb attached to it. The Scene made this video of new mother Kimberly Rubin-Spivack recalling how she became a first-time mom at age 53, proving that for some women, even in your 50s it is not too late.

At first, Rubin-Spivack thought it was impossible for her to carry a child due to her age. However, it was her doctor who suggested that she go through with it. She was implanted with a donor egg and got pregnant on her first round of IVF.

At age 53, Rubin-Spivack gave birth to her daughter naturally, without drugs or an epidural (damn!).

Rubin-Spivack says that she occasionally has to deal with haters online commenting on getting pregnant at her age, but it doesn't phase her much. "I feel like I'm Benjamin Button! I'm just getting younger!"

We believe it, too. I mean, look at her skin.

Of course, Rubin-Spivack's case is not typical, and she would not have explored the option of carrying her own child if it was at all a dangerous to her or her baby. But her story does go to show that every mom and every pregnancy is unique.

"I had a major out-of-body experience," recalled Rubin-Spivack when her doctor told her she could carry her child. "I'm sitting across from this doctor who is telling me the impossible is possible."

MSNBC hosts claim Kellyanne Conway would slam Trump once her mic was off.

Edit: Morning Joe was initially erroneously listed as a Fox News show, but the article has since been amended to reflect the correct network, which is MSNBC.

On the MSNBC show Morning Joe on Monday, co-hosts (and future spouses) Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough revealed that Kellyanne Conway couldn't stand Donald Trump, even though she was running his campaign. She apparently disliked him so much that as soon as the cameras were off and her mic was removed, she'd start to trash-talk her boss.

During the segment, Brzezinski said,

This is a woman, by the way, who came on our show during the campaign and would shill for Trump in extensive fashion and then she would get off the air, the camera would be turned off, the microphone would be taken off and she would say “bleeech I need to take a shower” because she disliked her candidate so much.

Scarborough continued the story, saying,

Also said, that this is just, like "my summer in Europe. I’m just doing this for the money, I’ll be off this soon." I don’t know that she ever said "I’m doing this for the money," but "this is just my summer vacation, my summer in Europe. And basically, I’m gonna get through this."

Brzezinski claimed that Conway would say, “I have to take a shower because it feels so dirty to be saying what I’m saying," adding, “I guess she’s just used to it now.”

Another interesting tidbit from the segment is that, according to Scarborough, after the Access Hollywood tape was released, Conway stopped calling Trump by his name, choosing instead to refer to him as her "client."

Conway's dislike of Trump is nothing new; when she worked for Ted Cruz, she spoke of Trump's "unpresidential" and "vulgar" language, and characterized him as having "built a lot of his business on the backs of the little guy." She was also among the many that felt that Trump should release his tax returns.

Back in February, Brzezinski banned Conway from Morning Joe, saying, "Every time I’ve ever seen her on television, something’s askew, off, or incorrect.” I guess at least Kellyanne Conway is reliable in her unreliability.

No one's impressed with the way this porn star tried to troll a 'short' basketball player.

This is Mia Khalifa, a porn star and fan of the Washington Wizards, an NBA team currently battling the Boston Celtics in the second round of the playoffs.

On Friday, porn star Mia Khalifa tried to take a shot at basketball star Isaiah Thomas, taunting him about his height. Specifically, his height in relation to the location of her, ahem, "tiddies."

Most basketball stars are really tall. Isaiah Thomas is only 5"9'. Therefore, thought Khalifa, "burn."

Actually, responded the internet, not burn.

Mia Khalifa is a solid seven inches shorter than Isaiah Thomas.

Isaiah Thomas is also tremendously athletic.

It doesn't seem like Isaiah Thomas responded to the taunt, what with his team losing that game by one point. But the final game of the series is Monday night, and if the Celtics take another loss, he'll have all post season to craft his response to her zinger.

It'll probably be along the lines of: "K."

Creepy house listing tells buyers 'please don't ask' about the secret upstairs tenant. Here's why.

Hey, remember last week when we wrote about that weird, creepy listing for a house for sale in Columbia, South Carolina? The one where no one was allowed to see the upstairs, where a mysterious tenant lived and would not be paying rent? And we speculated that a ghost or demon might be living upstairs in this obviously haunted house? Well, turns out that the ghost is alive! And according to the News & Observer, he's actually a 70-year-old artist named Randall McKissick. He's not even evil!

The News & Observer interviewed McKissick, the divorced father of two and grandfather of one, who was once a world-renowned artist but has since fallen on hard times. His work has been shown internationally in Paris, Johannesburg and St. Thomas, as well as an abundance of places within the U.S. But with the advent of computer graphics, McKissick found himself struggling. On top of that, he dealt with divorce, eviction, and an ongoing battle with anxiety.

McKissick has been friends with the owner of the house, Michael Schumpert Sr., since they were children. For about the last decade, his friend has allowed him to live rent free in the upstairs apartment, with his three cats. But in December, Schumpert was in a car accident resulting in a broken back (he apparently couldn't be reached for comment by the News & Observer). It was Schumpert's son, Michael Jr., who wrote the ad for the house. He told the News & Observer, “We don’t really have much choice but to sell the house; my parents need to sell it. But it’s been in the family for so long, we don’t really want to. And we want Randy to be able to stay there.”

Michael Schumpert Jr. has taken down the ad and the house is, for now, off the market. He's not sure what the next step will be.

McKissick’s daughter, Amber Albert, said their family is looking into other housing for McKissick, a place with room for a studio that will let him keep his cats. But money is an issue in their family, as well. And then there's McKissick's anxiety, which apparently makes it difficult for him to travel or deal with changes.

But, he told the News & Observer, if he has to move, he will. He said, “I just want to paint again. I just want to find that spark.”

Everyone's furious at these 'fat-shaming' meal planners that tell people to starve.

0

Companies exploiting eating disorders for profit is nothing new but usually they're a little more subtle about it. A popular UK stationary company called Fox & Moon is selling a line of meal planners and food journals they are calling "sassy" and covering them with messages that fall in the category of "things mean girls said in your high school gym locker room that destroyed you for life."

Messages like "I want to skinny dip, not chunky dunk" and "stick to the plan, piggy." And unfortunately no, this is not satire.

"chunky dunking" sounds fun tbh.

One journal said "stop bloody eating," the Revelist reports. Something a significant percentage of people (particularly teenage girls and women) will already do on their own without a diary telling them to. It's called an eating disorder.

The products were first called out by body positive blogger Lottie L’amour.

"By using this kind of language, they are making it okay to shame and bully people with larger bodies," L'amour told Metro UK. "If weight loss is a goal for people, they can achieve this without being self deprecating and hating their current body." She added: "Fox and Moon are currently making profit from bullying women into thinking that they need to be thin to succeed, be beautiful and be desirable."

Many others have taken to Twitter to call out the company for "bullying," fat-shaming and promoting eating disorders. Because, duh.

Yes, it is.

Fox & Moon has responded to L'amour's criticism in a very weird, very Mean Girls way. First they wrote in an Instagram story that they’re "sorry if any covers offend" (okay but show us you mean it, Fox & Moon).

They then sent L'amour this incredibly passive aggressive DM, which she shared with Metro:

WTF is that????

This company is literally the meanest girl in your high school gym locker room.

And this is L'amour's response to people telling her to STFU and leave this company alone:

This old video of Ivanka Trump showing off her apartment is embarrassing.

0
0

The OWN network just rereleased this old clip of Ivanka Trump showing off her apartment and the things she "couldn't live without" on The Oprah Show in 2007, and, boy, is it a doozy.

The segment originally aired about a decade ago, so it is pre-Jared Kushner, pre-President Trump, and pre-book tour. But she is definitely the same ol' Ivanka. As she shows you her "humble" Trump Park Avenue abode filled with expensive knick-knacks, she definitely struggles to seem like the relatable "hard-working" woman she tries so desperately to embody, and comes off more like a spoiled rich kid who has no idea how the other half lives.

So basically, not too much has changed in the last 10 years.

Among the things Ivanka Trump can't live without:

  • a backgammon table
  • board games still in the plastic
  • a garbage can with a monkey on it
  • a lot of fresh cut flowers
  • expensive jewelry
  • chapstick (same, though.)

Apparently Ivanka would cease to exist if she doesn't have hundreds of dollars of flowers in her apartment each day.

Rich people— they're nothing like us!

It's tempting to buy your prom dress online: both because of the seemingly infinite options and how annoying it is to try things on at the mall. But many people on Twitter have thought that they ordered gowns, only to end up with dresses that were more like figure skating outfits.

Sign language interpreter at Snoop Dogg concert steals the show and mesmerizes the internet.

Snoop Dogg had a sign language interpreter at a recent concert at the Jazz Fest in New Orleans. But one might argue that the interpreter WAS the show, and everyone else, including Snoop Dogg himself, were just background noise.

The interpreter, named Holly Maniatty, went way and above her job description in translating Snoop's set for the hearing impaired. She gave it %110 and her performance was so captivating, the video went viral.

Just watch:

I didn't know which one to watch @snoopdogg or the #interpreter 🙌🏼 #JazzFest #neworleans @tglradioshow #TheGoodLifeRadioShow @wbok1230 www.tglradioshow.com To use this video in a commercial player or in broadcasts, please email licensing@storyful.com

Posted by The Good Life Radio Show on Saturday, May 6, 2017

The video has been shared over 250,000 times on Facebook, and all anyone wants to talk about is the interpreter:

As this lady pointed out, being an interpreter is not an easy job. But this woman went above and beyond.

It's especially moving when you think about what her performance means for the hearing-impaired.

The performance is going viral over on Twitter, too. Because it's obv too good for just one platform!

Let's hope Snoop's ego is not bruised by all this attention being paid to this woman. JK, knowing Snoop Dogg (and we know him well), it seems highly unlikely he would have anything but high praise for her performance.

Man enjoys his painkillers a bit too much while getting his fractured ankle set.

There's no question that going in for a medical procedure is scary, but at least there's always the chance that you'll have a hilarious reaction to the anesthesia or painkillers they put you on. You might just be the internet's next viral star! Like this Scottish man, who was put on painkillers while doctors put his fractured ankle back into place.

A clip from the BBC reality show, Scotland Superhospital, shows the man's hilarious reaction to the drug. Doctors gave him an anesthetic drug that works by disassociation, meaning the patient might be awake, but not aware of their surroundings. Let's just say the man really enjoyed it. Like, way too much.

I sincerely hope you have something or someone in your life that brings you as much joy as this man's painkiller's bring him.

My co-workers feel like family in that they all annoy me.

Thank you for understanding that I'm way too lazy to send an actual thank you card.


Kim and Khloe Kardashian reveal how they really feel about Kylie Jenner getting her own show.

ICYMI, a new series from the Kardashian-Jenner crew will be gracing our television screens this summer. It's called Life of Kylie, and will follow, well, the life of Kylie Jenner.

That's right, fam. Kylie's got her own show now. So how do her older sisters feel about it? Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian shared their thoughts on Kylie's new show with E! Newsat NBC Universal's Upfront on Monday.

"She's already a pro at this," Kim told E! News. "This is something she really wanted to do to show a different side of her. So you're definitely going to see her friends, her dating, what she does on a daily basis, how hard she really works."

Khloe added that she's excited to see the show, because she has no idea what her sister does during the day.

"Like what the hell does Kylie do all day long?" Khloe wondered aloud to the E! News crew. "It's funny because [Kim and I] are with each other all day long. So with Kylie, I'm going to be a viewer just like everyone else."

You can watch their full interview over on E!.

Life of Kylie premieres on E! on Thursday, July 6, so I guess that's when we, along with Khloe Kardashian, will finally learn what the hell Kylie Jenner does all day long.

Chrissy Teigen tried to get 'revenge' on John Legend for dancing with a fan and it backfired.

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen are such an adorable and happy couple, even their fights make you jealous.

Teigen recently joined her husband on tour, and during a concert in Miami, he apparently invited a fan onstage and they danced a little closer than his wife was comfortable with, E! Online reports. So she decided to "get back at him" by getting close with one of her own fans, and she documented the whole thing on Snapchat. Goddess bless.

So whose life did supermodel Chrissy Teigen decide to change forever on a whim? This guy:

A man enjoying the best moment of his life.

"John got to dance with a woman at his concert so Chrissy gets to take one man and hold hands with him," says the person filming the video. She then jokes, "John, don't be jealous."

Seeeeee? EVEN THEIR JEALOUSY IS ADORABLE.

But merely holding hands was clearly not enough "revenge" for Miss Teigen. So she took the man by the hand to a local tattoo shop, where they proceeded to get matching tramp stamps.

Calm down everyone, she opted for the not-permanent version: Henna. Seems like the smarter choice, but it wasn't (more on that to come).

Henna time: like tattoo time with 100% less pain.

Teigen and her fan/new BFF then posed for a Snap of their matching "ink."

Dude's day just keeps getting better and better.

"It's just a prank bruuuuh," they wrote in matching ink across their lower back. Classic Classic Teigen. This woman needs her own reality show, stat.

But unfortunately for her, this adorable revenge plot backfired. Because Teigen brought her henna tattoo home that night and things got.... messy.

"Issa smeared," she wrote on Snapchat, along with a video where she shows her brand new tattoo smeared all over her bed sheets.

Teigen's face tells us everything we need to know about how this scheme worked out for her:

TFW your prank backfires.

So does this tweet:

Please never change, Chrissy Teigen. Except for your sheets: change those.

Flash mob spells out a message on Trump's golf course and it's not 'great job!'

0
0

A group of approximately 200 people showed their dedication to the #resistance by showing up at one of Donald Trump's golf courses at 8 am on Saturday morning. And not to play golf.

The group, who calls themselves "Indivisible San Pedro" held a "flash mob" protest at the National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, CBS reports. Using their bodies to form letters, they spelled out a brief but powerful message. And it wasn't "great job!" Not even close.

An aerial photo of the message has gone viral on Twitter:

The protesters spelled out the word "resist!" Apparently it's a shorter version of what they'd initially planned to write. "You cannot spell 'release your taxes' as easily so we used 'resist' to stand for what our ask is," protestor Peter Warren told CNN."We got a tremendous response."

According to CBS, police showed up at the scene but no one was arrested. Maybe for one police realized that demonstrators were making a very good point.

There is now a romper for men called a 'RompHim' and Twitter is not romp-here for it.

0
0

This is difficult news to break, but it's happening and must be reported: someone invented a romper for men, called a "RompHim." These are bleak times we live in.

A KickStarter for the "RompHim," launched by a startup called Aced Design, has already earned nearly $19,000, which is nearly twice its fundraising goal of $10,000.

Hello, 911? Please send romp-help.

But before you take to the streets to protest the worst hipster nightmare since Fyre Festival, keep in mind that a male version of the popular romper might be a GOOD thing. Because if women have to get completely naked in the bathroom at a party just to pee, men should have to do the same. THAT'S EQUALITY.

Oh wait, never mind, the romphim, unlike the romp-her, comes with a zip fly. Talk about injustice!

People on Twitter can't stop talking about the "romphim" and the vast majority are NOT romp-having it.

The RompHim really is the embodiment of 2017 hipster culture in all its gory glory.

But hey, at least it's a great conversation starter at parties! (But uhhh, "hi!" works, too.)

Though to be fair, at least one person in history has been known to look handsome while wearing a romphim. His name was Cary Grant.

Of course, Cary Grant is no longer alive. Probably not because he wore a romphim, but we can't be 100% certain.

Maybe don't wear one. Just to be extra safe.

Jimmy Fallon points out how Donald Trump plagiarized a commencement speech from 'Legally Blonde.'

0

Omigod you guys, did Donald Trump just ,like, totally copy Elle Woods' graduation speech?!

In his opening monologue on Monday, Jimmy Fallon pointed out a few key similarities between Donald Trump's commencement speech at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia and Elle Woods' valedictorian speech from Legally Blonde.

Let's just say that the evidence is pretty compelling.

Hey, plagiarizing strong, smart women is supposed to be Melania's thing!

Of course, the monologue was all in good fun, and, to be fair, there are only so many clichés you can recycle in commencement speeches.

Talk about a distraction.

When you think about it, Donald Trump and Elle Woods have a lot in common: They are both overly-tanned blondes from rich families, they both got thrown into environments where they definitely don't fit in, and they both love Russia!

Am I remembering the plot of Legally Blonde correctly?
