The OC actress Mischa Barton has revealed that her ex-boyfriend secretly taped them being intimate without her consent and is now trying to sell that tape for a big payday, according to a new video on TMZ. That is called revenge porn and it is illegal.

Lawyer Lisa Bloom is representing Mischa Barton as she seeks to keep her ex-boyfriend from releasing the sex tape. In a conference set up by Bloom, the 31-year-old actor says:

I just want to say that I have been put through an incredibly hard and trying time. This is a painful situation, and my absolute worst fear was realized when I learned that someone I thought I loved and trusted was filming my most intimate and private moments, without my consent, with hidden cameras. Then I learned something even worse—that someone is trying to sell these videos and make them public. I came forward to fight this not only for myself, but for all the women out there. I want to protect them from the pain and humiliation that I have had to go through.

This is obviously not the first time that a celebrity's privacy has been violated. In 2014, Jennifer Lawrence found herself in a similar situation when she was hacked and nudes of her were leaked to the public. The same thing happened to SNL star Leslie Jones earlier this year. Charmed actor Rose McGowan also endured a similar sex tape ordeal, when a tape was released that allegedly featured her and an ex.

We're glad that Mischa Barton is getting ahead of the story by speaking out publicly and we hope her lawyer is able to thwart the release of this tape. Being harassed with the threat of revenge porn is a situation no person should ever have to endure.

Mélanie Ségard, a 21-year-old French woman with Down syndrome, just achieved her ultimate goal of presenting the weather on national television to a humble audience of about 5.3 million viewers. No biggie!

You don't have to speak French to understand Ségard's joy in the clip below.

With the help of Union of Charities for Parents with Disabled Children (UNAPEI), Ségard launched an online campaign to catch the attention of news channels in hopes that one would let her present the weather. She created the Facebook page "Mélanie can do it" with the goal of getting 100,000 likes to boost her signal. She ended up with double that amount.

France 2 got wind of Ségard's ambitious campaign and invited her on the air. After two days of training, she presented the weather on March 14th, where she totally nailed the segment.

"That's it, I've done it, I'm finally a weather girl," she tweeted. "I am different, but I can do lots of things."

A truly clueless dad accidentally alerted his entire newsfeed that he would "like to F*CK" a woman he might consider a "hottie," unaware that his explicit Facebook comment would be public. Dutifully, his stepdaughter stepped in to let him know that everyone he's friends with on Facebook could see his interaction with the porn page, according to BuzzFeed News.

Here's the whole, terrible, (thankfully) brief exchange, as shared by a third party apparently related to the commenter.

"Hey dad... All of your friends can see when you comment on this stuff." Stuff, of course, being "hot sex porn."

There's nothing worse in this world than that! Ashley's tweet went viral and apparently made it to the front page of Reddit, because this is the nightmare scenario for all humanity. According to BuzzFeed, dad's claiming he got "hacked." No one believes him.

Shut down the internet, it's all over folks.

Everyone loves a dad busting dad moves on the dance floor. Especially when that dad could be the future King of England. So people are going bloody bonkers over this TMZ video of Prince William raising the roof at a Swiss nightclub like any"cool dad" enjoying a night out on the town.

Honestly, you have to check out these moves:

Though the British press has come down pretty hard on William for slacking on his royal duties, Twitter thinks we need to let a dad live.

Besides, it's not like he was pulling any funny business. According to TMZ, Prince William, who took the night out while on a ski trip in Switzerland with friends, kept it respectful and danced entirely on his own. Actually, what they wrote was:

Wills raised the roof like he was straight outta Buckingham, or just the ‘90s, during a ski trip to Verbier, Switzerland with some buddies. Kate can rest easy, her Prince was thot-free while starting a personal dance revolution ... around 10:30 p.m.

"Did you talk to any thots at the club, Will?" the Duchess of Cambridge probably asked her husband when he got home. "No, my dearest Kate, I was thot-free!" he responded. And the royal family all lived happily ever after.

Well. Here's some nightmare fuel for you.

Florida resident Monica Dorsett was going about her business recently, driving her car, probably listening to her favorite playlist, when all of a sudden a snake started to emerge from her car's air vents. Yes, a live snake.

Monica's daughter Kristina posted photos of her mom's vehicle invader to Twitter. Her tweet quickly went viral.

"I was on a four-lane highway and I all of a sudden see the snake coming out of the vent near my left hand," Monica toldBuzzfeed News. "It took me a second to realize - that is real."

Uh. What? WHERE DID IT COME FROM?!

Monica exited the highway and pulled over to deal with the snake. She accidentally captured a video of herself fighting it off and posted it to Facebook. It's hard to tell what's really happening, but it sounds like she's totally keeping her composure.

Or maybe not. WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO KEEP YOUR COMPOSURE? She ended up slamming the door on the snake (poor snake), and her husband came to help her deal with the situation.

The story had people on Twitter vowing never to drive again.

Even Monica herself says she still feels on edge every time she gets in her car. “I’m not opening those vents for a long time,” she told Buzzfeed.

Her daughter Kristina, who tweeted the photos, said the incident didn't shock her too much. "Florida is just weird, it would happen,” she told Buzzfeed.

Can't argue there. Don't you think live snakes mysteriously appearing in people's air vents is taking it a little too far, Florida? Off you go.

John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, and their 11-month-old bundle of cuteness Luna had a petting zoo party, and it looks like mom had the best time of them all.

"It was fun. We invited a lot of our friends with kids over, and it was for no particular reason other than Chrissy wanted a petting zoo," Legend told People. The dream.

Legend shared a picture of his most remarkably photogenic wife and daughter, glistening at sunset in adorable idyllic farm.

Teigen shared a trilogy of adorable videos so we can pretend we were invited.

Luna learned how to gently pet a bunny while she may or may not have been pooping.

And rode a pony with help from dad.

But it was mom Chrissy Teigen who had the best time and made a whole lot of new friends.

Teigen enthusiastically greeted the pony, cooing "I'm so happy to have you!"

She got to live the dream and be surrounded by tiny pigs and bunnies.

But Chrissy Teigen met her absolute best friend in the form of a turkey.

The majestic, "crazy" creature is aan adorable best friend. At least until Thanksgiving.

A few lucky travelers got to spice up their lives recently, and they didn't even know it was happening. Emma Bunton (also known as Baby Spice) teamed up with British Airways recently to play a Spice Girls-inspired prank on some unsuspecting passengers.

Bunton dressed up as a member of the British Airways staff and approached customers at London's Heathrow Airport, offering them assistance. Like any good airline employee, she guided the passengers through check-in procedures - only she did it using as many Spice Girls lyrics as possible. The results were truly hilarious.

It seems there weren't many Spice Girls fans at the airport that day, given that most people didn't seem to recognize Baby Spice. They were all great dancers, though.

Emma Bunton's prank was in honor of Red Nose Day, a fundraising event in the UK that raises money to help people in poverty.

Saving the world, one obscure Spice Girls lyric at a time.

Ooooooh boy, parenting's a trip, huh? A mom from the UK says her doctor's visit took a “surprising twist” when her son picked up a kids' book called Mummy Laid an Egg that was so explicit she is calling it a "child-friendly Kama Sutra guide."

AWKWARD.

“Adem picked up this innocent enough looking book Mummy Laid an Egg,” wrote Katherine Peck, from London, on Facebook. But though it started typically with "sugar and spice and everything nice," she says she was "ill prepared for the most sudden U-Turn on Page 6, where we're introduced to Daddy's friendly looking 'seed pods'!"

The mom-of-two shared photos from the book on Facebook and I have a LOT of questions: Are those clowns?? Why are their boobs at their necks? What is happening???? This book is for KIDS??

"No holds barred on Pages 8 and 9 either, where apparently 'this fits in here...' (sounds easy enough) and then what can only be described as a child-friendly Kama Sutra guide ensues on Page 10!" she wrote. "Aerial acrobatics, fetish clown outfits and space hoppers (fun times!)"

Peck said her 8-year-old daughter showed a "sudden interest in the 'silly baby book,'" and added: "cue the 4 billion questions I hadn't planned answering today."

The post went viral, having been shared over 36,000 times. And judging by the comments, the general reaction is variations on "WTF?????"

And at least one person was brave enough to point out that the book might actually be useful.

IDK. It seems like in general, sex ed pretty much sucks. And maybe this book, which was published in 1995, has helped inform a lot of well-adjusted young people. Or maybe it's led to a generation of kids growing into adults with a clown fetish.

My concern is that it is setting up young people for inevitable disappointment when they get old enough to have sex and learn that rarely does it involve flying, skateboards or balloons.

Or maybe it does, and I've just been misinformed all along because my parents didn't buy me this book.

Maybe this Twitter user by the name of "Christopher" thought he'd snag a date when he tweeted about his preference for "girls who read books" over girls who are "on their phones."

His tweet DID catch the eyes of many smart, funny women on Twitter, but not for the reason he may have hoped. Christopher got dragged as many female tweeters were quick to point out the flaws in his argument.

Plus, he kept making it worse by responding to the replies.

And he wasn't the only guy to get burned in this tweetstorm.

As someone who reads constantly on the train on my Kindle for iPhone (ok sometimes it's Facebook—that counts as a book, right?), I can totally understand why this tweet rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.

I hope this guy learned his lesson: don't mess with girls who read books. We might just destroy you with words.

This morning, Donald Trump tweeted angrily about Snoop Dogg's latest music video. In it, "Snoop Dogg pulls out a fake gun and aims it at [a] Parody Trump," Billboard reports. And while the video was quite emphatically denounced for its violence across the board, there was one Snoop ally who attempted to come to his rescue: Bow Wow. "Attempted" being the operative word there:

He wrote:

Ayo, RealDonaldTrump, shut your punk ass up talking shit about my uncle Snoop Dogg before we pimp your wife and make her work for us.

Yeah, not exactly the clap back we were hoping to see. It invokes rape, fighting back against Trump's anger with threats of violence,—which we all know is not how to work shit out. (Though verbal insults aren't necessarily the best, either, if we're being honest).

Nobody was having any of it, even if they aren't fans of Trump. (Thank goodness this isn't an either/or situation.) Bow Wow has a history of being bad at Twitter (like the time he announced his retirement, or the time he announced he wasn't voting in the 2016 election, or the time he announced a new album with Soulja Boy), and today was no different for the rapper/actor. The guy just does not learn.

Here's what the people are saying about Bow Wow's terrible attempt to defend Snoop Dogg (who probably has already asked Bow Wow to delete the tweet by now (he hasn't as of this post).

Good luck coming back from this one, Bow Wow.

I have no idea why you would want to do this, but you can now purchase overpriced salami, chocolate, wine and "beauty creams" that honor the First Lady of the U.S., Melania Trump. That's right, for just double the price that you'd pay for a comparable bottle of wine, you could be the proud (hey, I don't know your life) owner of a bottle of vintage "First Lady," that is, a wine made from a Blaufränkisch grape variety, courtesy of a Slovenia wine producer located near Melania Trump's hometown.

According to Decanter, the first 300 bottles of the stuff, which was being sold locally at Slovenia's Sevnica Castle gift shop, sold out in just three days. Now, another 2,000 bottles are ready to be sold to eager Melania fan, even though the only association she has with the wine is that she grew up in the same general area of Slovenia. And as for the salami, that processed meat is made from a rare breed of local pig. How exotic?

What do we do with this information? I don't know, if i were more of a nihilist, maybe I'd buy a bunch of it and then throw it in the trash. (At least I'd be supporting a small business, right?) If I were richer, maybe I'd buy a buy some of it and give it away to the needy. And if I were more artistically inclined, maybe I'd order boxes of the stuff and somehow use it as material to create a sculpture of Melania's face. But I'm none of those things, and I'm a vegetarian, so I don't even eat salami, nor do I feel the need to give my money to a random wine producer in Slovenia who is trying to make a buck off the fame of the First Lady (before they get sued, probably). Instead, I'll probably just ignore it and go on with my life.

The night before Trump's Muslim Ban 2.0 was set to take effect, a federal judge in Hawaii has halted it with a nationwide restraining order, The Wall Street Journal reports. Talk about a buzzer beater! The new version of the travel ban would temporarily suspend entry into the U.S. from six Muslim-majority countries: Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. And U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson, who is the hero behind the halting, had some strong words about the ban:

"The record before this Court is unique. It includes significant and unrebutted evidence of religious animus driving the promulgation of the Executive Order and its related predecessor."

People are feeling proud that Judge Watson stood up against the ban and served Trump a legal blow, as well as speculating what Trump's response to his second rejection on this bill by a Ninth Circuit judge will be like, as we know he gets quite angry when people don't give him what he wants. Here are some of the best responses to the halting of the travel ban thus far:

In his latest instillation of "Crosswalk the Musical," James Corden took to the streets to perform Beauty and the Beast for commuters and pedestrians...whether they wanted to see it or not.

In the past, Corden and his "Crosswalk Theatre Troupe" have put on impromptu performances of The Lion King, The Phantom of the Opera and more, but Beauty and the Beast might be their most ambitious undertaking yet. Luckily, the Late Late Show host got help from three of the stars of the highly anticipated live-action film, Josh Gad (LeFou), Dan Stevens (The Beast) and Luke Evans (Gaston), who really brought this Disney classic to life at the intersection of Beverly and Genesee.

Josh Gad even did double duty by grabbing a couple of Pier One candlestick holders and transforming into Lumière for the show-stopping number, "Be Our Guest." What, does EwanMcGregor think he's too good to get out there and literally pound the pavement as a French candlestick in the California heat or something?

Ah yes, LA traffic and James Corden making any excuse to sing on television— those are certainly two things that can be considered "tale as old as time."

Ah, the stupid things kids do. Actor Matthew Perry was on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday night, where he told Kimmel all about how in fifth grade he beat up Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Well, Justin Trudeau wasn't the prime minister then, he was just a few years younger than Perry (but his dad was the prime minister).

Matthew Perry explained how he and a friend beat up Trudeau, purely out of jealousy. The reason was that Justin Trudeau was better at a sport than Perry and his friend were (surprise!). "I'm not proud of [it]," Perry admitted. "I’m not bragging about this. This was terrible. I was a stupid kid.”

It's hard to imagine anyone trying to beat up hunky Justin Trudeau now, though. And he's probably still better at sports.

Today in Absolutely Ridiculous news, a woman named Taylor Byrnes had passed a telephone interview with Winnipeg startup food delivery company Skip The Dishes and was scheduled to have a second interview. But the startup canceled the interview when Byrnes asked about pay and benefits.

Yes, really.

This was because apparently the woman in charge of hiring feels that people should be working full-time jobs out for the fun of it, and not for, say, financial compensation. Yeesh.

Byrnes tweeted about how her question about pay resulted in her interview being canceled. She included screenshots of her initial email asking about wages and the two replies she received from a woman—presumably in HR—named Victoria Karras, who was handling the interviews for the open position at the company. The tweet has since gone viral, with almost 5,000 retweets, because what the??

In her tweet, Taylor Byrnes shows that she'd written to Karras asking "If I do end up filling this position, how much do you think I'll be getting paid an hour? Benefits will also be included, right? Sorry, I just thought I should ask now." She even apologized for asking about salary!

Well, Karras replied to Taylor Byrnes' innocuous question about wages by canceling their scheduled second interview and writing:

Your questions are valid ones and we would like to clarify where we may have not communicated our position clearly. As a startup company, we seek out those who go out of their way to seek out challenges and new opportunities. We believe in hard work and perseverance in pursuit of company goals as opposed to focusing on compensation. Our corporate culture may be unique in this way, but it is paramount that staff display intrinsic motivation and are proven self-starters. For these reasons, questions about compensation and benefits at such an early stage is a concern related to organizational fit.

Remember, this is a food delivery service, not Doctors Without Borders. How passionate could one be expected to be?

Twitter very much sided with Taylor Byrnes in this matter.

After Taylor Byrnes' tweet went viral and the backlash against Skip The Dishes began, a co-founder of the company contacted her. We know this because the company then tweeted his apology message to her, including her name, instead of contacting her directly in private. SMH.

In a statement to BuzzFeed Canada, Skip the Dishes co-founder Joshua Stimair backpedaled, writing:

The email sent to Taylor was wrong and does not represent our team’s approach or values. We are very disappointed in how it was handled. We do share a compensation package prior to hiring. As soon as we became aware of it on Monday, we reached out to Taylor to apologize for the email and reschedule her interview.

Simair added that the company plans to provide staff with more training so this kind of thing doesn't happen again in the future. Yeah, that sounds like a pretty good plan.

Hopefully Taylor Byrnes finds a job soon that doesn't balk when she asks about pay.

An outpost of the Indonesian Army enjoyed a silly tiger statue as a mascot outside their building, and then the internet ruined everything with memes. Before you dive deep into that pool of memes so deadly dank, here's the statue in all its original glory:

What's up with its huge, baffling face? Doesn't matter. This was its eventual fate, the result of memes so intense they could kill a goofy tiger:

The tiger statue had apparently enjoyed a calm existence of several years without ridicule before the internet took notice. Then it was literally destroyed by the army—with chisels, according to an outlet no less esteemed than the BBC. Said a military official: "Every unit has their own decision on how the statue was made, but sometimes the artist was not that good."

Now behold the memes that destroyed the tiger:

No one tiger can survive that much meme-ing. RIP.

On Thursday morning, someone got their greasy hands on the McDonald's corporate Twitter account, and used it to throw some serious shade at President Donald Trump.

This is a far cry from McDonald's typical tweets.

At first, you might think somebody at McD's thought they were tweeting from their personal account. But that's impossible, because they pinned the tweet.

The tweet was deleted within 20 minutes of being posted, but that was long enough for it to be retweeted more than 1,000 times. And of course, it was immortalized forever in screenshots.

Shortly after the tweet was deleted, McDonald's posted an update stating that the account had been hacked.

The president has yet to comment on the tweet. But considering how much he loves fast food, he's definitely going to be upset.

Was this really the work of hackers? Or are Ronald McDonald and his goons just covering up the actions of a rebellious employee to hide the fact that they're running a leaky ship? This is beginning to sound suspiciously like the Trump White House.
