Let's split a bottle of wine and then split another bottle of wine.


Watch this guy slow-motion jump onto a trampoline covered in mousetraps so you don't have to.

The Slow Mo Guys have entertained us with such glorious stunts as crawling into a giant water balloon and popping it. Now, in a strange stunt that seems to have been concocted in a random word generator, Slow Mo bros Gav and Dan have put a thousand mouse traps on a trampoline and are subjecting Dan to the carnage. After a four hour long set up, Dan runs and dives right in, and it looks like little critters attacking him in quicksand.

Needless to say, it's awesome.

Reasons to celebrate mom on mother's day

Mom goes viral with photos showing what life with postpartum depression actually looks like.

Social media can be a minefield for moms because of all the pressure to present a "pretty" and happy picture of motherhood. But increasingly, moms like Kathy DiVincenzo are using social media to get real about the not-so-pretty, not-so-happy challenges many moms face.

DiVinceno is a mother-of-two who suffers from postpartum depression, which affects approximately one-in-seven moms (including famous moms Chrissy Teigen and Adele), as well as OCD and anxiety.

For her and so many other moms dealing with some form of mental illness, the experience of motherhood has been both blissfully happy and painfully hard. In two photos she shared in honor of May being Postpartum Depression Awareness Month, she wanted to show both sides:

Chances are, you're feeling pretty uncomfortable right now (trust me I am too). I'm going to challenge you to push past...

Posted by Kathy DiVincenzo on Monday, May 1, 2017

"As someone with diagnosed postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD I feel like it's time to show you what that can really look like, not just the side of me that's 'Facebook worthy,'" she wrote in the post, which went massively viral.

She explains that both pics "represent my life depending on the day," but she only ever shares one of these realities on social media (clue: it's the 2nd pic).

Of the first pic, showing a messier depiction of motherhood that many moms can probably relate to, she explains:

I work twice as hard to hide this reality from you because I'm afraid to make you uncomfortable. I'm afraid you'll think I'm weak, crazy, a terrible mother, or the other million things my mind convinces me of and I know I'm not alone in those thoughts.

We need to stop assuming that the postpartum period is always euphoric, because for 1 in 7 it's not.

She encouraged other women who have dealt with postpartum depression to share their stories. Many did.

The post has also been flooded with thousands of hearts and "thank you's" and supportive words.

Whether you're dealing with postpartum depression or any form of depression or mental illness, or simply having a shitty diaper-filled day, you might think you're alone.

But you're not.

DiVincenzo ended her post with this awesome pep talk for moms that also applies to anyone dealing with any form of mental illness:

In case no one has told you, you're doing an amazing job. You are loved and you are worthy. You're not alone. Information to local and national support will be in the comment section. I know how unbelievably hard it is to reach out, but I promise you it is worth it. YOU'RE worth it.

So go find a mom in your life, and ask her "how are you? No, how are you really?" And then listen.

An angry email from Steve Harvey to his whole staff was leaked and man does he look like a diva.

And the winner of the Biggest Diva in Showbiz 2017 is.... Miss Colombia!!!!!

OK, folks. There's—I have to apologize. There's been a mistake. The winner is Steve Harvey. Steve Harvey is 2017's Biggest Diva in Showbiz.

The talk show host earned this title, despite the steep competition from the likes of Justin Bieber and P. Diddy, after an email he sent to his staff was leaked and published by journalist Robert Feder on his blog.

The email is now circulating on Twitter. It is..... intense.

The email reads:

Good morning, everyone. Welcome back.

I’d like you all to review and adhere to the following notes and rules for Season 5 of my talk show.

There will be no meetings in my dressing room. No stopping by or popping in. NO ONE.

Do not come to my dressing room unless invited.

Do not open my dressing room door. IF YOU OPEN MY DOOR, EXPECT TO BE REMOVED.

My security team will stop everyone from standing at my door who have the intent to see or speak to me.

I want all the ambushing to stop now. That includes TV staff.

You must schedule an appointment.

I have been taken advantage of by my lenient policy in the past. This ends now. NO MORE.

Do not approach me while I’m in the makeup chair unless I ask to speak with you directly. Either knock or use the doorbell.

I am seeking more free time for me throughout the day.

Do not wait in any hallway to speak to me. I hate being ambushed. Please make an appointment.

I promise you I will not entertain you in the hallway, and do not attempt to walk with me.

If you’re reading this, yes, I mean you.

Everyone, do not take offense to the new way of doing business. It is for the good of my personal life and enjoyment.

Thank you all,

Steve Harvey

Everyone, do not take offense to this email, okay? It is for the good of Steve Harvey's "personal life and enjoyment."

Truthfully, this isn't even that crazy as far as celebrity demands go. And the comedian is so against being "ambushed," you almost feel bad for him (until you remember that he once wrote a book called Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man and all that pity just melts away).

Twitter has had a mixed reaction to the email. Some are defending Harvey for voicing his needs and setting boundaries.

But others criticized the "tone" of the email and calling his demands "absurd."

This person just responded with the perfect gif:

And here's a funny anecdote from Andy Richter about the email:

In summation: don't ambush Steve Harvey. MAKE A DAMN APPOINTMENT OKAY YOU PSYCHOS WHO KEEP TRYING TO AMBUSH STEVE HARVEY?!?! (Please don't take offense at me screaming at you in all-caps, it was for the good of my personal life and enjoyment.)

Watch Melissa McCarthy transform into Sean Spicer before your very eyes.

Melissa McCarthy, queen of physical comedy, will be hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend for the sixth time. WHOOOPEEEE! This is good news for many reasons, but especially because it means a return of her dazzling Sean Spicer impression. An impression so good, Sean Spicer hates it ("too much chewing" commented the man who said he chews and swallows two and a half packs of gum by noon each day).

Oh baaaaaaaby, we can't wait to have her back. We need her Spicey impression now more than ever.

NBC just released a teaser for this Saturday's SNL, showing the intentionally comedic actress' transformation into the unintentionally comedic press secretary. It's truly a sight to behold:

These are scary, unstable times. May we all find hope and comfort in watching Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer stuffing a wad of gum the size of his head into his head.

Sunday is Mother's Day, so you know what that means—time to start poking fun at the women who gave birth to us, raised us, and continue to love us, despite all our (many, many) flaws. On Wednesday night, Jimmy Kimmel had staff members read actual texts from their actual moms, because if there's one thing moms are (inadvertently) great at, it's sending texts.

Awww, moms really are the best. They love us more than anyone else does, and they share with us constantly. Even if we maybe don't really want them to. Gotta love that Roker Report, though!

Jessica Chastain drags Johnny Depp for being lazy in juicy new interview.

Jessica Chastain has no time for slackers.

In a recent interview with BBC, Chastain was asked about her "technique" for memorizing lines, and was told that Johnny Depp sometimes has his fed to him through an earpiece.

Cue the world's most glorious eyeroll:

"My technique is working hard," responded the clearly peeved Chastain.

Damn, Jessica! Tell him!!

To be fair, professionalism has never really been Johnny Depp's "thing." According to a report by Vulturepublished just yesterday, Depp was notoriously late to set for Pirates 5, and production ended up having to hire someone to sit outside the actor's mansion in a van, wait to see his bedroom light turn on in the morning, then alert the film's director that he has woken up and to start getting ready for the shoot. This would leave "hundreds of extras waiting for hours at a time" on Johnny's behalf, and apparently this became the norm.

Combine this diva behavior with reports of Depp's reckless spending habits, drinking problems, and alleged domestic abuse, and it seems like the Pirates of the Caribbean actor is totally spiraling out of control.

Here's the thing: actors as famous as Depp get paid millions to be in films, and simply memorizing the script is bare minimum of what you have to do to earn that massive paycheck. Okay, I guess waking up and getting your butt to work is the bare minimum, but after that.

Johnny, get it together, man.


United Airlines tries to get in on teen's viral nugget karma, ends up very badly burned.

This is Carter Wilkerson, the lucky teenager who managed to secure a year of free nuggets from Wendy's thanks to a metric ton of retweets.

As Wilkerson made his dreams come true, United Airlines tried to dip a toe in the world of positive PR.

If you remember the internet over the past month, you'll know that United's been on a losing streak since a brutal video of of David Dao getting dragged off one of their planes went viral. Since then, they've been accused of letting a rabbit die, making a woman pee in a cup, and sending a woman 3,000 miles in the wrong direction. And that's all on top of the leggings debacle from March.

But United still tried to make good on a promise they made to the nuggets king in early April, and for that you really can't blame them.

Oh wait, everyone's blaming them. It turns out Twitter won't let United get a win just yet. The replies to their latest offer were brutal. And so far, Wilkerson hasn't responded (at least publicly) to their offer.

United Airlines PR: the hardest job in the world right now.

Celebrities be switching up their hair a lot lately—must be spring fever! First Katy Perry went super short and super blonde, then Selena Gomez chopped her long locks, and now Olivia Wilde has gone and changed it up pretty drastically.

Dark times call for dark hair. #1984play

A post shared by Olivia Wilde (@oliviawilde) on

On Wednesday night, the 33-year-old actor posted anInstagram of herself with a new 'do, cut shorter and dyed much darker than her usual color. According to the caption, the new haircut and color are her upcoming debut in the Broadway play 1984, based on George Orwell's dystopian novel of the same name. Wilde captioned the picture, "Dark times call for dark hair. #1984play."

Of course, Olivia Wilde looks gorgeous no matter what her hair looks like, but this look is particularly becoming on her—dark times or not.

Kellyanne Conway accuses Anderson Cooper of sexism after he rolled his eyes at her.

Kellyanne Conway is accusing Anderson Cooper of sexism after he rolled his eyes at her during a disastrous interview on CNN on Tuesday.

Cooper and Conway were discussing the firing of FBI Director James Comey when the conversation got heated, resulting in Cooper rolling his eyes as Conway tried to change the subject to how Donald Trump won Michigan in the 2016 election.

The clip quickly went viral.

Early on Thursday, Kellyanne Conway popped up on Fox & Friends and appeared to accuse Anderson Cooper of sexism. Of course, she also suggested that Hillary Clinton doesn't actually face sexism—not like she does, at least. That's convenient.

"Hillary Clinton is in search of sexism as a lame excuse for why her disastrous candidacy and campaign lost six months ago. I face sexism a lot of times when I show up for interviews like that."

Hm, yeah. Alternative facts.

Of course, Kellyanne does face sexism. It would be untrue and frankly really stupid to assume that she doesn't. That said, I don't think Anderson Cooper rolled his eyes at her because she is a woman. I think he rolled his eyes at her because she is the worst.

Bow Wow issues lame non-apology after being called out for 'private jet' lies.

Bow Wow is clapping back at all the people who made fun of him for lying about his private jet, mostly by just not caring much at all. (That counts as clapping back, right?) In a podcast with Hollywood Lifeon Tuesday, Mr. Wow said:

The thing with the Internet is — we live in a time where it’s a show and prove type of thing. A lot of people can’t take comments. A lot of people can’t take scrutiny. So therefore, as a man, I hope you have balls to stand up for yourself and fight for yourself. A guy like me, like today they put up a story about me not coming to New York in a private plane … but I know how I got to New York, you know what I mean? So it’s like … what do I have to prove? Like I’m not gonna get on my Instagram and make a one minute video … like for what? Cause then you’ll get comments like "You’re Bow Wow, you have nothing to prove." So therefore, if you know who you are you’ve got nothing to prove.

Ummm, okay…? This response doesn't really actually explain anything. Is he saying that he really did take a private jet, and that wasn't him in the picture snapped by a fan? It's not clear, and the more I try to make sense of it, the more my brain starts to turn inside out. Basically, what I'm getting is: Shad Moss a.k.a. Bow Wow (formerly Lil Bow Wow) doesn't owe anyone an explanation for anything. Fair enough.

My hustle is non stop. I never stop hustling. #GUHHATL

A post shared by Bow wow (@shadmoss) on

To catch you up to speed on the situation, on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Like Mike actor, 30, was mocked relentlessly after getting busted flying coach to NYC when earlier he'd posted an Instagram about taking his "private jet."

But someone apparently spotted him on their commercial flight to New York, and Bow Wow was, basically, humiliated.

The internet was relentless about it, and the trolling went as far as the creation of the #BowWowChallenge.

But it's okay because Bow Wow has nothing to prove. And even if he tries to prove it, his fans will say, "Bow Wow, why are you trying to prove this?" So there's no point. He's Bow Wow, he knows who he is, and that's that.

Nicole Kidman insulted Giada de Laurentiis' pizza on 'Ellen' and then they all lost it.

Cooking segments are usually the most innocuous of all talk show staples. A celebrity chef shows a wisecracking host how to make some fancy noodles, the host screws it up and the chef makes fun of them, then the host winds up with noodles on their face. It's a time-honored tradition.

Leave it to ruthless iconoclast Nicole Kidman to rock that foundation to its core. In a new segment from The Ellen DeGeneres Show, famous sexy chef Giada de Laurentiis attempted to show Ellen and Kidman how to prepare her clementine and fennel pizza. (Yum?) Instead, Kidman proved she DGAF by undermining the whole enterprise from the start. And when she finally tasted a sample of the pizza in question, she didn't hold back on saying exactly how she felt about it. Luckily, they all broke down in a giggle fit, instead of a full-on brawl.

That five-hour-old pizza may be a little tough, but Nicole Kidman is tough as nails.

This may be the most hilariously awkward cooking segment since Gordon Ramsay famously clashed with Norm MacDonald on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.

Dad lets his 3-year-old answer questions from strangers on the Internet. It gets deep.

An apparently bored dad took to Reddit to set up an AMA—"Ask Me Anything"—starring his hilarious three-year-old son. If you've ever read an AMA before, you know they're usually an opportunity for celebrities or entrepreneurs to connect with their fans or customers directly.

In this case, it was a numbing spiral of insight into the mind of a toddler, who may or may not have understood what was happening.

With his dad at the helm, here are some of the greatest moments:

Here's how deep it got:

A three-year-old has humble ambitions.

And no mercy for his family.

(That second line is his dad chiming in.)

So. Sassy. Don't get cute with him.

There's a Superman theme throughout this.

Get inside the mind of a toddler... but you might find something disturbing.

This one hurt his dad's feelings.

And here's the danger of doing an AMA with a toddler.

He might just leave at any time. Kids are a lot like Robert Downey Jr. in that sense.

Nice try... MOM.

And lets go out on two of the creepiest answers.

What?!

Celebrity chef Sandra Lee refused to let Paul Ryan join her cooking segment on 'Fox and Friends.'

After ramming a controversial health care bill through the House of Representatives last week, Speaker Paul Ryan isn't exactly basking in the glow of popularity at the moment. That was especially apparent on Tuesday's episode of Fox and Friends, where celebrity chef Sandra Lee reportedly refused to let him join her cooking segment and told him, "I need you to go away."

Lee and Ryan appeared on the same episode of the Fox News show, Fox and Friends, on Tuesday. Lee is a breast cancer survivor and the longtime girlfriend of New York governor Andrew Cuomo (a Democrat), and as it turns out, she's not such a huge fan of Ryan.

Page Six reports that Lee wasn't so thrilled to learn that her cooking segment on the show would follow an interview with Paul Ryan. She reportedly refused to let Speaker Ryan join her segment.

"Paul Ryan was on the segment before Sandra, and the hosts asked him to hang around for Sandra's cooking feature to try the food," a source told Page Six. "But in the break before her demo, she said to Ryan and some others there, 'I need you to go away so I can collect my thoughts, prepare, and get ready for the segment.'"

The source went on to say that Lee wasn't even comfortable being on the same stage as Ryan, let alone being on live television with him. "It was very frosty," the source told Page Six. "She simply does not believe in anything that Ryan believes in."

The source said that Paul Ryan stayed off camera during Lee's "Cooking With Friends" segment, where she made coffee cake, chocolate cupcakes, and chocolate covered bacon for Mother's Day.

Governor Cuomo and Ryan have butted heads quite a bit. Back in March, Cuomo said that Ryan and other congressional Republicans had "declared war on New York" with their Obamacare repeal, which would cost the state $6.9 billion if it's passed. He has also criticized Ryan's "rabid conservative orthodoxy."

Lee typically doesn't get involved in the governor's political battles, but it appears that she shares his feelings towards Ryan. To be fair, we probably wouldn't share our chocolate covered bacon with him either.

When people tell me I'm turning into my mother I actually take it as a compliment.

A wise fourth grader let his old crush know that he doesn't f**k with racists.

Twitterer @Emeraald_ shared a picture of a note that supposedly came from her fourth grade class by a woke little boy name Jorge who wanted his love letters back.

It reads:

Hi Alina it's Jorge the kid that send's you those letters.

I used to like you but I heard that you were bullying a girl that's a different skin color that's messed up.

Who would would to be with you.

I relly regret those letters.

Oh heck no!

I'm sorry about liking you!

The anti-love letter is illustrated with a sad face and a broken heart.

People were skeptical on Twitter because the penmanship was so good.

Every note on the internet brings out some self-proclaimed handwriting experts and amateur sleuths, but others choose to believe in order to hold the sweet, pure moment to their hearts.

Trump claims he invented a phrase that's been around since the 19th century. Twitter disagrees.

On Thursday, The Economist released a lightly edited transcript of an interview it had with President Donald Trump, treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin, and National Economic Council director Gary Cohn.

During the interview, President Trump used the phrase "prime the pump," and claimed that he had come up with it"a couple of days ago."

Despite The Economist's editors' numerous assurances that they'd heard the phrase used before, Trump seemed determined to believe he'd invented it.

"Have you heard that expression used before?" he asked them. "Because I haven't heard it. I mean, I just...I came up with it a couple of days ago and I thought it was good."

Sure.

Unfortunately for President Trump, the phrase "priming the pump" has been used in economics for a long time.

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, it's been around since the early 19th century.

Merriam-Webseter never shies away from a chance to troll the president on Twitter, so they provided an explanation of the phrase's origins.

Twitter was quick to call Trump out on his bluff.

People also had some jokes.

Some Twitter users even shared the phrases they'd invented recently.

God save us all.
