You were too wrapped up in Beyoncé's 2016 VMA performance to notice this giant feminist symbol.

0

You may have been too busy dancing around your living room or praying at the alter of Mrs. Carter to notice, but during her VMA performance over the weekend, Beyoncé's dancers got into formation and created a giant Venus symbol on stage. In case you missed it due to the excessive use of fog machines:

Now watch the performance and keep an eye out for the Venus symbol at the very end.

Thanks for the "Lemonade," Beyoncé.

Posted by MTV on Sunday, August 28, 2016

Yes, like Michelangelo, da Vinci and all other great artists, Beyoncé likes sprinkling some hidden messages into her work. Remember when you thought her performance couldn't get any better? It just did.

This is a little more subtle than standing in front of a giant, lit up sign that said "FEMINIST" like she did at the 2014 VMAs, but definitely inhabits the same girl-power message.

Twirl on them haters, Bey.

Confirmed: Beyoncé will never miss an opportunity to remind you who runs the world. Have a problem with it? Go call Becky with the good hair.


Laurie Hernandez met Beyoncé at the VMAs and made the face anyone would make.

As if winning an Olympic gold medal wasn't enough excitement for one month, the U.S. women's gymnastics team got to present Queen Beyoncé herself with the Moonman for Best Female Video at Sunday night's VMAs.

So what's it like when the undisputed Ruler of the Universe is less than five feet away from you? Let's go to the tape of Laurie Hernandez right after Beyoncé hugged her to find out:

Hernandez's reaction was pretty priceless. She immediately took to Twitter to express her extreme lack of chill.

This amazing screenshot pretty much says it all.

Basically, Laurie Hernandez meeting Beyoncé is all of us meeting Beyoncé (should we ever be so lucky).

The Comedy Central 'Roast of Rob Lowe' turned into a roast of Ann Coulter instead.

On Saturday night, Rob Lowe was the honoree of the annual Comedy Central roast, but he got off easy because the real target ended up being demon/troll hybrid Ann Coulter.

But wait, why was political commentator Ann Coulter even there? Promoting her immediately irrelevant book, In Trump We Trust, of course.

And as Rob Lowe told USA Today, "I think the best daises are the daises that have people where you’re like what the f**k? You need every flavor to make these things go right and cut them all together for a show."

The roast participants included Coulter, English comedian Jimmy Carr, American comedian Nikki Glaser, SNL's Pete Davidson, The Karate Kid's Ralph Macchio, Peyton Manning, singer Jewel, comedian and former Daily Show correspondent Rob Riggle, Jeff Ross (who probably lives on stage at the Friars Club of New York where the roasts are held), and Roast Master David Spade.

Here are some of the highlights, as far as Coulter-jokes go:

Spade got a bunch in, including: "She seems stiff and conservative, but Ann gets wild in the sheets. Just ask the Klan," and "It looks like she's having a good time. I haven't seen her laugh this hard since Trayvon Martin got shot."

Jewel said: "As a feminist I can’t support everything that’s been said tonight, but as someone who hates Ann Coulter, I’m delighted."

Glaser joked: "Ann Coulter has written 11 books, 12 if you count Mein Kampf. Ann, you're awful. The only person you will ever make happy is the Mexican who digs your grave."

Davidson quipped: "Ann Coulter is here. If you are here, Ann, who is scaring the crows away from our crops?"

But Carr took it furthest, saying, "Ann is one of the most repugnant, hateful, hatchet-face bitches alive. It's not too late to change, Ann. You could kill yourself!"

Coulter, for her part, took it all in stride, saying: "There is nothing you can tell me to discourage me. My whole career has been an Ann Coulter roast."

Touché.

The entirety of the roast will air on Labor Day on Comedy Central.

Omg Drake said he loves Rihanna and smooched her in front of everyone.

On Sunday night at the VMAs, Drake presented Rihanna with the Vanguard Award and thrilled the whole world by announcing, "She's someone I've been in love with since I was 22 years old." Yes, everyone pretty much knew Drake loved Rihanna, but now it's completely out there, no room for doubt. Of course, RiRi, being RiRi, just smiled and rolled her eyes. She probably hears this kind of thing approximately 700 times a day.

Leading up to the statement, he raved about her for four full minutes. That's no surprise—on Friday Drake shelled out for a huge billboard in L.A. congratulating Rihanna on winning this year's Vanguard Award. It's sort of like when Ben Affleck took out a full-page ad in The Hollywood Reporter in 2002, gushing about his soon-to-be girlfriend (and later-to-be ex) Jennifer Lopez.

When he extra ❤🏆!!!

On top of the sweet kiss they shared on stage, later that night Drake instagrammed a picture of himself and Rihanna and what looks like a wine glass, captioned:

This is a night for us all to be thankful for what you have done for us! You have affected so many of our lives in the best way possible. Tonight we celebrate you! @badgalriri

Bisexual men are the best at sexing women, according to new research.

0
0

Forget everything you learned about dating bisexual men from Sex and the City, because women who have actually dated these guys are calling them the best in bed.

In a study led by Dr. Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli from the Deakin School of Health and Social Development in Australia, 78 women ranging from 16- to 78-years-old and from various sexual and cultural backgrounds all discussed their experiences dating men who had identified as bisexuals. The reviews were glowing.

The men, according to these real women whose dialogue wasn't largely written by Emmy winners, said that the bisexual men were "more sexually attentive and emotionally available."

Well, Carrie did say that her bi bf was a good kisser, but the women expressed more than just a good makeout. According to Pallotta-Chiarolli, "many of the women also said they thought the men made better fathers, as well." As the blog LGBTQ Nation wrote:

“These mixed-orientation relationships, or what I call MOREs, sit outside the boundaries of what many may consider a ‘normal’ relationship, whether it’s straight or gay,” Pallotta-Chiarolli said. “What the research has shown is that they are very real and valid and deserve our attention, support and understanding... we need to lift the stigma for the women who choose to be in relationships with bisexual men.”

So there it is. Maybe sexuality is just like crossing the street: it's better to look both ways.

A gracious J.Lo took the stage at her ex-husband Marc Anthony's concert.

We all know that Jennifer Lopez is a classy lady, and she proved it again this weekend when she took the stage to perform with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony, at his concert in NYC on Saturday night.

Always fun sharing the stage w this one... @marcanthony #NoMeAmes #radiocitymusichall #familia

Lopez and Anthony were married for ten years before splitting up in 2014, but they've remained friends. Their joint performance comes off the heels of J.Lo's split with her most recent beau, Casper Smart.

What could it mean?! Probably nothing. But here's a video to prove how awesome it was:

Espectacular @jlo en el concierto de @marcanthony 👏👏👏 #PaLaHistoria 💃👌👍

Blue Ivy wore the $11,000 princess dress of your dreams to the VMAs.

Blue Ivy Carter, the spawn of Queen Bey and future of American royalty, joined her mother at a work event, the MTV Video Music Awards. Like the literal princess that she is, Blue Ivy wore a magnificent dress comprised of layers of tulle on tulle on tulle, that bore a humble price tag of $10,950 at your local Bergdorf Goodman.

A photo posted by Beyoncé (@beyonce) on

Blue Ivy's dress was designed by "luxe children's designer" (among the creepiest phrases I've ever heard) Mischka Aoki.

The dress has EVERYTHING: leather, metallic gold top with 3D gold metallic appliqué, a tutu skirt and layers of tulle you can hide your stuffed animals in.

The toddler's gown is so magnificent, Beyoncé posted an aerial view so we can fully take it in.

While she is a glamorous baby on the glamorous red carpet with her glamorous mom, being a good sport as she's continuously dragged to her parents' work functions, she's still just a cute toddler.

Taylor Swift showed up for jury duty and got her real life 'Law and Order' moment.

0

Taylor Swift was absent from Sunday's VMAs, and while people assumed she skipped the show to avoid running into Kimye and krew, she actually had an air-tight alibi. Swift wasn't avoiding confrontation, she just had to show up for jury duty in Nashville on Monday morning.

Tay was probably pretty psyched, given her love of Law and Order.

Instead of being with her pop star peers at the VMAs, Swift was summoned to serve on a jury of her peers. Tay schmoozed with her fellow responsible citizens, probably excited to not be the one who's being judged for once.

She even took selfies with the other jurors to commemorate their special day in court together.

She's just so damn relatable! Do you guys trust her again now? Would you want her on a jury of your peers?

UPDATE: Tay was apparently later dismissed as a prospective juror after she told the judge she didn't think she could be impartial in the case (which involved sexual assault) due to her pending civil case in Colorado against a DJ who allegedly fondled her backstage during a concert. Guess she'll just have to settle for watching Law and Order reruns with her cat, Olivia Benson.

Huma Abedin announced she's separating from husband Anthony Weiner.

In light of her husband's most recent sexting scandal, long-suffering wife Huma Abedin issued a statement announcing that she and Anthony Weiner are splitting up.

Her statement reads:

After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband. Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life. During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy.

But they look so happy together…

Abedin stayed with Weiner through two other sexting incidents, the first in 2011 when he was in Congress (and Abedin was pregnant with their child) and the second in 2013, during his run for mayor of New York. People have wondered what it would take for Abedin, a top aide and "second daughter" to Hillary Clinton, to give up on the marriage, and it looks like she's put into play the ol' "three strikes and you're out" rule. Abedin is not a fan of being in the spotlight, as revealed in the 2016 documentary Weiner, and this is the worst kind of spotlight to be in.

Mom says it's okay if her 3-year-old son wants to wear tutus.

0
0

Jen Anderson Shattuck's three-and-a-half year old son likes to wear tutus, and that's totally fine with her. In a Facebook post published August 24, Stattuck wrote that her son, who also likes to play with trucks, says sparkly tutus "make him feel beautiful and brave." Every so often a well-meaning stranger will ask her about her son's tutu, and she explains, and then that's that.

Rcently, however, one man accosted them, alleging that "forcing" her son to wear a skirt was "child abuse."

My three-and-a-half-year-old son likes to play trucks. He likes to do jigsaw puzzles. He likes to eat plums. And he...

Posted by Jen Anderson Shattuck on Wednesday, August 24, 2016

Her post reads:

My three-and-a-half-year-old son likes to play trucks. He likes to do jigsaw puzzles. He likes to eat plums. And he likes to wear sparkly tutus. If asked, he will say the tutus make him feel beautiful and brave. If asked, he will say there are no rules about what boys can wear or what girls can wear.

My son has worn tutus to church. He has worn tutus to the grocery store. He has worn tutus on the train and in the sandbox. It has been, in our part of the world, a non-issue. We have been asked some well-intentioned questions; we've answered them; it has been fine. It WAS fine, until yesterday.

Yesterday, on our walk to the park, my son and I were accosted by someone who demanded to know why my son was wearing a skirt. We didn't know him, but he appeared to have been watching us for some time.

"I'm just curious," the man said. "Why do you keep doing this to your son?"

He wasn't curious. He didn't want answers. He wanted to make sure we both knew that what my son was doing---what I was ALLOWING him to do---was wrong.

"She shouldn't keep doing this to you," he said. He spoke directly to my son. "You're a boy. She's a bad mommy. It's child abuse."

He took pictures of us, although I asked him not to; he threatened me. "Now everyone will know," he said. "You'll see."

I called the police. They came, they took their report, they complimented the skirt. Still, my son does not feel safe today. He wants to know: "Is the man coming back? The bad man? Is he going to shout more unkind things about my skirt? Is he going to take more pictures?"

I can't say for sure. But I can say this: I will not be intimidated. I will not be made to feel vulnerable or afraid. I will not let angry strangers tell my son what he can or cannot wear.

The world may not love my son for who he is, but I do. I was put on this earth to make sure he knows it.

I will shout my love from street corners.

I will defend, shouting, his right to walk down the street in peace, wearing whatever items of clothing he wants to wear.

I will show him, in whatever way I can, that I value the person he is, trust in his vision for himself, and support his choices---no matter what anybody else says, no matter who tries to stop him or how often.

Our family has a motto. The motto is this:

We are loving.

We are kind.

We are determined and persistent.

We are beautiful and brave.

We know who we are. Angry strangers will not change who we are. The world will not change who we are---we will change the world.

EDITED TO ADD: This post is public and able to be shared. We are so grateful for your love and support!

Shattuck said she won't let this man's anger or judgment affect her and that she'll continue to stand up for her son—regardless of what he chooses to wear—because he is beautiful and brave. Now that's how parenting is done.


Confetti (once again) tried to murder Ariana Grande at the 2016 VMAs.

Why does confetti want pop star Ariana Grande dead? I'm forced to ask this question once again after the singer was attacked by multiple squares of white paper at Sunday night's VMAs. Here's the clip from MTV's audience cam, via BuzzFeed:

After a piece landed on her eye, she tried to get rid of it by removing her glasses, but the confetti refused to budge, creeping down over her face, ever closer to her heart. Question: can paper cuts kill? Answer: Yes, if you get enough of them.

This isn't the first time confetti has tried to murder Ariana Grande. Back in December 2014, the singer performed at Z100's Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden and "almost died" after slipping on confetti.

when u slip on confetti & almost die at madison square garden 😭😩😂

Did a confetti mob boss put out a hit? Is Big Scissor behind it? Are patriotic Americans using tiny drones disguised as confetti to off the notorious America-hating donut licker?

New study proves it's grosser to kiss your boyfriend than your dog.

0

A new study reveals what dog lovers have always known—it's actually grosser to French kiss a human than it is to kiss your dog (although nobody should probably be French-kissing dogs).

According to the study by dog fence company, Havahart Wireless, human mouths have 1.4 times more bacteria than dogs' mouths do. That means your boyfriend's mouth has about 2,000,000 more germs than your dog's does. Your dog most likely hates being hugged, but he probably won't mind being smooched.

Okay, that's the good news. The bad news is that, according to the same study, a dog's food bowl has about 2.1 times more bacteria than a fork, and a dog toy typically has 2.2 times more bacteria than a cell phone. So no eating out of the dog's dish, and if you have to chew something, make it your cell phone and not the dog's bone.

This is how your sex scene sausage gets made.

Sex scenes in films have been making family movie night uncomfortable for decades, but according to this video by The Film Theorists, a lot more goes into shooting a steamy sex scene than you might think. The video explains how directors use scopophilia, a Greek word meaning "to derive pleasure from watching," (alternate translation: "to make you want to die when watching alongside your parents") when they approach filming a sex scene.

There, now you have all the info you need as an aspiring film director to shoot a sex scene! That's definitely why you watched the video, right?

Thor was taking some me-time with the common-folk during 'Civil War'

Thor Odinson, a.k.a. Chris Hemsworth, wasn't invited to be part of Captain America: Civil War with the other Avengers. But it's cool, he's not bitter.

That's because he's been busy taking a chuck-chill-out in Australia with his buddy Daryl.

This exclusive behind-the-scenes look into the domestic life of Thor is part of the DVD release of Civil War on Sept. 2nd.

The footage shows us Thor IRL, doing all the things us common-folk do, like sending emails...

Their wacky home life.

Thor even gets a visit from his good buddy, Bruce Banner, a.k.a. The Hulk, a.k.a. Mark Ruffalo. While on the phone with Tony Stark, Thor asks Bruce to tell Tony to call him.

Tough break, Thor. But hey, you've always got Daryl!
