Liv Tyler revealed the name of her newborn son on Instagram Friday.
She posted an adorable pic of the baby’s hand holding an anchor necklace with the caption, “Sailor Gene Gardner”.
Liv Tyler gave birth to Sailor six weeks early on February 11th.
Liv Tyler’s rep told Popsugar after Sailor’s surprise arrival, “He was born on Feb. 11. He is very early — six weeks — but healthy, and will be in hospital for a while.”
Her rep added, “She would like privacy until she can bring him home.”
This is the first child with her boyfriend, sports agent David Gardner, who has a 7-year-old son, Grey, from a previous marriage. This is also the second for Liv Tyler. She has a son, Milo, 10, with her ex-husband, Royston Langdon.
Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump have won the right to sue for the removal of the Trump name from Atlantic City’s Taj Mahal casino.
Now, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump will demand that Trump Entertainment Resorts, with which Donald Trump is no longer associated, but holds a 10% stake in, remove the name Trump from the crumbling Taj Mahal.
“Unfortunately, Trump Entertainment Resorts has allowed the Taj to fall into an utter state of disrepair in violation of their licensing agreement,” Trump attorney Alan Garten said.
He added, “We think it’s a good ruling.”
In response to the initial outcry from Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump, Trump Entertainment Resorts removed the Trump sign from the Trump Plaza.
However, even after removing the neon lights that declared “Trump” to Atlantic City visitors, the outline remained clearly visible from a coat of dirt or rust.
Atlantic City has been in a steady decline for a while now, with casinos closing left and right.
The Trump Taj Mahal was in trouble for a long time. In fact, Trump Entertainment Resorts filed for bankruptcy and threatened to close the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, back in November.
In the lawsuit, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump insist that “The Trump name … has become synonymous with the highest levels of quality, luxury, prestige and success.”
Obviously, allowing the Taj Mahal to fall into disrepair is something that Ivanka Trump and her father don’t want to be associated with at all.
But, Trump Entertainment Resorts is fighting to keep the name on the Taj Mahal.
What do you think about Donald and Ivanka Trump’s lawsuit against Trump Entertainment Resorts? Do you think it’s reasonable for the Trumps to not want to be associated with declining casinos?
Exploding Kittens is a complete anomaly in the games section of Kickstarter.
Luke Crane, community manager for games at Kickstarter, said, “Until Exploding Kittens came along, we hadn’t seen the Internet at large descend on a project and embrace it at this crazy scale.”
On Kickstarter, donors receive awards for donating to the projects. In the case of Exploding Kittens, that award was a deck of the cards for a $20 donation.
If it was more than $20, donors were awarded with upgraded decks or x-rated decks.
Now that the funding is in, it is up to the talented designers, Elan Lee, former chief design officer for Xbox Entertainment Studios, Matthew Inman, creator of The Oatmeal, and Shane Small, an Xbox and Marvel game designer, to make it all happen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zodA26a_oFQ
That will be no easy task for the Exploding Kittens team, but Elan Lee said on a Reddit AMA that their donors are their top priority.
“We made a promise to more than 200 thousand people to ship them this game,” Lee wrote.
He added, “That’s our highest priority right now.”
Those who gave money should be getting their Exploding Kittens decks in July.
What do you think about the premise behind Exploding Kittens?
Bobbi Kristina Brown continues to fight for her life in an Atlanta hospital as her father, Bobby Brown, and other members of her family stay by her side.
Bobbi Kristina underwent a tracheotomy this week in what family members say is a “normal procedure” for someone who is going to be on a ventilator long-term.
“The tracheotomy is a different place for the tube to go,” a family source tells People. “Everything else remains the same. It’s a waiting game. The family is hoping and waiting.”
However, there is still no report on any change in Bobbi Kristina Brown‘s condition.
The source added, “She is still critical and we don’t know what the outcome will be. No one is giving up on this kid.”

Another family source told People that the operation on Bobbi Kristina Brown did have effects on the family, however.
The source said, “There’s a medical reason behind [the tracheotomy], but it’s making things clear to everyone how serious this is. Even if she wakes up, there’s a possibility that this could do some damage to her vocal cords, I hear.”
A photo posted by Bobbi Kristina Houston'Gordon (@realbkristinahg) on
The source added, “This is happening because there are no other options. If there was another way, Bobby would do it.”
There may be no more than a remote chance for Bobbi Kristina to survive, and attention has fallen to what will happen to Bobbi Kristina Brown‘s (Whitney Houston’s) fortune should she not make it.
Whitney Houston’s will named Bobbi Kristina Brown as the sole heir to her estate. But, Bobbi Kristina was never meant to inherit Houston’s fortune all at once. T
The will stipulated that Bobbi Kristina would receive the money, a reported minimum of $20 million, in a series of payments over nine years. She got 10 percent at age 21, and she will get a 30 percent distribution at 25, and the remainder when she turns 30.
Attorney Bruce H. Gaynes makes clear that the will says, “if Bobbi Kristina were to die unmarried, without children of her own and had left no will and testament of her own, the estate would be divided among Whitney’s living relatives.”
That would be Whitney Houston’s siblings and her mother.
The will does name Robert Brown, aka Bobby Brown, however, their divorce nullified him as a beneficiary.
The big question is, will Nick Gordon be entitled to receive any of Bobby Kristina Brown’s money?
Chances are slim, according to Gaynes. Despite many a social media reference as “husband” and “wife”, lawyers for Bobby Brown say the two never married.
Unless Nick Gordon can produce a marriage certificate, he is entitled to nothing. And even if he can, he is only entitled to Bobbi Kristina’s money, not Whitney Houston’s future estate payments.
But, a marriage isn’t likely, given the fact that the family has barred Nick Gordon from seeing Bobbi Kristina Brown in the hospital. If they were legally married, there would be nothing they could do about it, as he would have every right to see her.
What do you think about the future of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s assets, should she not pull through?
Lupita Nyong’o won an Academy award last year for her stunning performance in 12 Years A Slave.
Lupita Nyong’o’s win was among a variety of instances in which diversity was a big part of last year’s Oscars.
In addition to Lupita Nyong’o, Ellen DeGeneres, an outspoken lesbian, was hosting and the first Latino, Alfonso Cuaron, won the Oscar for best director.
And, of course, filmmaker Steve McQueen was infamously hopping for joy after 12 Years a Slave won best picture.
Shortly before her win, Lupita Nyong’o made the world love her with a speech on “dark beauty”.
A photo posted by Lupita Nyong'o (@lupitanyongo) on
Since then, Lupita Nyong’o has become a symbol of “dark beauty” herself.
During her speech, Lupita Nyong’o told of a young girl who wrote her a letter saying that Nyong’o had saved her.
The girl was apparently getting ready to lighten her skin, but after Nyongo’s success, she decided not to and to be proud of who she was.
Lupita Nyong’o said at the end of her speech, “I remember a time when I too felt unbeautiful. I put on the TV and only saw pale skin.”
She added, “And so I hope that my presence on your screens and in the magazines may lead you, young girl, on a similar journey.”
This year, the Oscars are noticeably lacking in the diversity department.
In fact, all 20 acting nominees are white this year. Also, the lack of nods for Selma is a shock, and some might say a disgrace.
As to the Oscars’ exclusive history, Darnell Hunt, a UCLA professor and director of the Ralph J. Bunche Center for African American Studies and co-author of a 2014 diversity report on the film and TV industries, says it’s nothing new.
A photo posted by Lupita Nyong'o (@lupitanyongo) on
He added, “What we saw in terms of the nominations this year was business as usual. What we got was more or less an accurate reflection of the way the industry is structured and the way the academy is populated.”
The outcry has attracted the likes of Al Sharpton, who called for a task force to look into the diversity problem at the Oscars. Sharpton said of the movie industry, “The movie industry is like the Rocky Mountains, the higher you get, the whiter it gets.”
That guy. Always classy.
However, Lionel Chetwynd, an Oscar-nominated writer and an academy member, argued against the whole “task force” idea.
He said, “Enforced ‘diversity’ will undermine the very mission of AMPAS. As new filmmakers and craftspeople achieve new levels of excellence, the face of the academy will change as it should, to the meter of its time, the pace of its art.”
What do you think? Do you think Hollywood should experience some enforced diversity or do you think the Academy is a pretty fair judge of art and talent and they should be left to do their jobs without interference?
Exploding Kittens is an analog card game for 2-5 players. It is also incredibly highly aniticipated.
Exploding Kittens closed down its crowd funding window last night, earning a historic total of $8.78 million from a record-breaking total of 219,382 backers.
Luke Crane, community manager for games at Kickstarter, admitted, “Until Exploding Kittens came along, we hadn’t seen the Internet at large descend on a project and embrace it at this crazy scale.”
Exploding Kittens is now on level with the two highest funded Kickstarter campaigns, the Coolest Cooler and Pebble Watch.
Exploding Kittens is a collaboration involving Elan Lee, former chief design officer for Xbox Entertainment Studios, Matthew Inman, creator of The Oatmeal, and Shane Small, an Xbox and Marvel game designer.
Elan Lee, during a Reddit AMA, said “We made a promise to more than 200 thousand people to ship them this game. That’s our highest priority right now.”
When Kickstarter backers donate money, sometimes they get prizes. In this case, a $20 contribution earned you a deck. Anything over that would earn other rewards like an x-rated version or other Exploding Kittens merchandise.
Elan Lee is surprised at the popularity of Exploding Kittens, but when asked if he was disappointed that this old-school card game is his big moment, he laughed and said, “It’s not an old-fashioned card game.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zodA26a_oFQ
He added, “You have to keep in mind there’s two elements going on simultaneously. This card game is a thing that no one has experienced yet. No one actually has any idea what this game is. We know it’s lovely and really fun, but nobody else knows that yet.
Exploding Kittens is expected to be shipped to donors in July.
Are you looking forward to when Exploding Kittens will be on your card table?
Tara Reid, the 39-year-old actress, who we know more for her partying lifestyle than her movies, says she is in love with the idea of new love.
She loves the idea of butterflies and romance, just like anyone else.
Tara Reid gushed, “I am in love with being in love. I love romance. Who doesn’t? It’s amazing. In the beginning of a relationship, it’s the best feeling in the world, those butterflies. I wish they could last forever.”
Even though relationships don’t always go as planned, she thinks love is never wasted.
When asked if she was actually in love at the moment, Tara Reid responded, “No. Well, yes. With my dog, Portia!”
However, if you were to ask Tara Reid, she is the perfect catch for any guy. She said of herself, “[I’m] probably the most loyal girl you will ever meet in your life. I’m an amazing friend, an amazing sister, an amazing daughter. And a hard worker.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-mon427evo
Speaking of being a hard worker, Tara Reid has begun filming the third installment of the Sharknado movies in Orlando, Florida.
Filming began at Universal Orlando Resort, and it will continue into next week.
Tara Reid co-stars with Ian Ziering again as the two of them battle shark-throwing tornados. There were also plenty of locals on hand to play theme park guests and soldiers.
Niagara Falls’ frozen wonderland is attracting tourists from all over the nation and even around the world.
People are flocking to see the spectacle of Niagara Falls’ frozen upper layers, which still allow water to flow underneath.
In fact, traffic through the Niagara Falls visitor’s center is up 67%, according to John Percy, president & CEO of Niagara Tourism & Convention Corporation.
Niagara Falls‘ frozen wonderland is great for tourism now, but Percy thinks the ice could last longer than usual in the spring.
“This will probably be another year where we still have ice in the river in May, ” said Percy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iuZuVqf7jE
This might not be a big deal, except there are other events scheduled that require Niagara Falls to not be frozen, like Maid of Mist, which begins in April.
But, in the mean time, fans of ice, snow, and winter have a great attraction to get out of the house to see when that cabin fever strikes.
Snow still falls a lot of the time on Niagara Falls’ frozen layers, and the mist that escapes from under the ice coats the surrounding trees, benches, and railing in a sparkling crystal layer of winter goodness.
And it looks like Niagara Falls’ frozen wonderland will be here to stay for a while for tourists to enjoy. Temperatures were at seven degrees below zero on Friday morning.
That’s a good thing for Niagara Falls if the tourists keep rolling in to see it. Would you stand out in miserably cold conditions to see Niagara Falls frozen?
Kelly Ayotte is already gearing up for her next political fight.
The popular New Hampshire Republican senator is already being forced to guard her position in the swing state before the 2016 elections, because historically, New Hampshire already tends to vote Democrat during election years.
Republicans across the state and even Chris Christie, New Jersey governor and potential presidential candidate, are circling the wagons around Kelly Ayotte as she gets ready to defend her seat in a race that hasn’t even been intiated yet.
Democratic Governor Maggie Hassan is said to have eyes for Kelly Ayotte’s Senate seat, but hasn’t even announced that she will be running against Ayotte.
However, Republicans see her as a big enough threat that they are already starting the attempt to discredit Hassan.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dAq0IFAUUU
“There’s been constant quiet talk about it in Concord from the first day she became governor, at the beginning of her first term,” said Jennifer Horn, the state GOP chairwoman. “It’s the worst-kept secret in political circles that Governor Hassan would like to be Senator Hassan.”
Earlier this month, Kelly Ayotte’s office made a right-to-know request for Governor Hassan’s out-of-state travel records. They say she loses power and control when she travels out of her state’s borders.
They hope to show with her travel records that she has only used her job as Governor as a step up to bigger things.
Chris Christie took a jab on behalf of Kelly Ayotte recently, saying, “[Hassan] will use this platform as a way to increase her own visibility and run for the next job. Let’s be careful. We’ve got enough of those types in Washington, D.C., already. We don’t need you to send any more there.”
Meanwhile, Kelly Ayotte is also carrying on with political business as usual. Earlier this month, she expressed concern over President Obama’s hesitation to take a stand against ISIS and terrorism in general.
Kelly Ayotte told Chris Matthews, “I think they [President Obama and John Kerry] should spend less time on being worried about being politically correct, about how we define our enemies, and more time on a strategy to defeat them.”
What do you think? Is Kelly Ayotte over-reacting too early to a possible threat in her swing state? Or is she just being politically prudent in protecting the Republican presence needed for the upcoming elections?
Betty Lou Bredemus, Julia Roberts’ beloved mother died early Thursday morning after a long battle with lung cancer.
She was 80 years old.
Betty Lou Bredemus is survived by her children, Eric Roberts, 58, Julia, 47, and Lisa Gillan, 49. Her other daughter, Nancy Motes, committed suicide last year at the age of 37.
Betty Lou Bredemus also leaves behind four grandchildren, actress Emma Roberts, who is Eric Roberts’ daughter, and Julia Roberts’ children, Phinnaeus and Hazel, both 10, and Henry, 7.
Julia Roberts was very close with her mother. Her and Betty Lou Bredemus leaned on each other after Nancy Motes died of an overdose last year, and Bredemus helped pull their family together.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGCLa7wLTCI
After Motes’ death, Julia Roberts said, “It’s hour by hour some days, but you just keep looking ahead. But [as with] any situation of challenge and despair, we must find a way, as a family.”
That’s not the only time that Betty Lou Bredemus was instrumental in uniting the family after a tragedy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqCYOci-TeA
Betty Lou Bredemus, who once ran an acting school in Smyrna, Georgia, lost her first husband and Julia’s father, Walter Grady Roberts, when Julia was just 10 to throat cancer.
Betty Lou Bredemus was with Julia Roberts when Julia first realized that she had become famous back in the late 1980’s.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMIkXukr_Sg
It was shortly after she starred in the 1988 film, Mystic Pizza, that Roberts was first approached by a fan when she went to the movies with her mother, Betty Lou Bredemus.
Julia Roberts is in the midst of filming her latest movie, The Secret In Their Eyes.
Hopefully, the family of Betty Lou Bredemus can come together once again to comfort each other over the loss of their mother and grandmother.
Keira Kngihtley has been nominated for a best supporting actress Oscar.
The movie in which Keira Knightley stars with Benedict Cumberbatch, The Imitation Game, has been immensely popular and is up for a few Oscars, as well.
Keira Kngihtley seems to be working lately without a pause, which speaks volumes of her talent and stamina.
However, Keira Knightley didn’t always have it so easy.
When Keira Knightley began acting at the age of eight, she unknowingly set herself up to mature in front of paparazzi, and therefore, the world.
That experience was admittedly miserable and sometimes downright terrifying.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acIqc8PtvPo
Keira Knightley, during the TimesTalks and TIFF Q&A on Monday, said that during the Pirates of the Caribbean frenzy, paparazzi would yell at her and call her a wh**e just to get a reaction.
She added, “Having 20 to 30 men who you don’t know on a 24-hour surveillance outside your house calling you a ‘wh**e’ every time you leave the door to try to get a reaction from you is quite a difficult thing to deal with.”
It’s definitely not something the average young person has to deal with on a daily basis, but Keira Knightly pics were highly sought after and the more upset she was in them, the better.
Also, if those pics of Keira Knightley showed a little more skin than usual, a shutterbug could make a killing. So, they got pretty aggressive sometimes.
“It was a time when there was a lot of money for pictures of women crying or of women in some state of undress. You’d walk down the street and you’d have men trying to get under your skirt to take pictures up your skirt and all the time calling you a ‘wh**e’ or all the time spitting at you or all the time trying to get a reaction from the guy you were with because it would make the price of that photograph quadruple.”
Ok, that is just shameful. No one should have to put up with that, especially a young woman. Maybe that kind of thing flies in Britain, but not here.
Keira Knightley said that things have changed for her now that she is married and she and her husband, musician James Righton, are expecting their first child.
Still, that is just disturbing.
Will you be cheering on Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley during the Oscars?
Lolo Jones, talented athlete and outspoken Christian, has joined the movement of people who think 50 Shades of Grey is trash and harmful to our society.
Lolo Jones and many others out there have made known their distaste for the erotic novels.
They have blogged, tweeted, and shared their way into the fray with strong opposition to the “mommy porn” books and now, the movie.
Lolo Jones is a notorious virgin and starred in the latest Left Behind movie with Nicolas Cage.
Therefore, her stance is not surprising.
Funny how some people think there's nothing wrong with 50 shades of Grey. God didn't create sex for that purpose. Watch another movie
In her post, Lolo Jones says (after listing some pretty terrible and crude names people have hurled at her since her tweets), “I just wish every woman would know she is worth more than what this movie depicts. And that every man knows being a gentleman is not outdated.”
What do you think about 50 Shades of Grey?
Do you agree with Lolo Jones that the franchise is bad for our society, as a whole?
Even if you don’t, do you feel that the reaction to her tweets was a little harsh?
The 5’11” brunette former Miss Alabama, who is married to quarterback A.J. McCarron, called out the bullies by posting their own hateful comments to her Instagram.
Katherine Webb intended it to prompt the rude commentators to face their own words.
There is still plenty of water churning underneath Niagara Falls’ frozen top layers.
Reportedly, the mist that escapes from Niagara Falls’ freezing waters immediately freezes on whatever it touches creating a sparkling wonderland that attracts lovers of all things winter and whimsical.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOFqwh2oTOc
Nearby trees and benches are said to be coated in the frozen mists.
The familiar roar has been muffled, but it’s still there.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iuZuVqf7jE
Niagara Falls‘ frozen appearance is apparently worth getting out in unthinkable temperatures to see.
In fact, temperatures have dropped recently to 13 degrees below zero, and wind chills are sometimes at 25 degrees below zero.
But that doesn’t stop those who are desperate enough (or bored enough, or brave enough) to go out and get a glimpse of Niagara Falls frozen.
There have been more visitors this week to Niagara Falls than normal.
Ok, some people really love winter and snow, fires and hot chocolate, ice and sparkles. But do you really love it enough to trek through below freezing temperatures and endure windchills that make me cold just thinking about them?
Not me. Not today.
Would you bundle up and go see Niagara Falls frozen?
Kate Matrosova was dropped off by her husband at the base of the mountains of the Presidential Range in New Hampshire on Sunday morning.
Kate Matrosova’s plan was to hike alone to the top of Mount Madison, then hike through Mount Adams and Mount Jefferson, and to the top of Mount Washington.
There, Kate Matrosova would stand at the summit of the highest peak in the Northwest.
But Kate Matrosova never made it to the peak of Mount Washington.
Her body was found frozen on Monday between Mount Madison and Mount Adams.
Kate Matrosova activated her emergency personal locator beacon on Sunday afternoon when she became lost in 100 mph winds and blowing snow.
However, it would prove impossible for rescue crews to find her in the devastatingly harsh conditions.
“Unfortunately, a lot of the coordinates that we received over the night were all over the place within a mile circumference,” Fish and Game Lt. Jim Goss said of Kate Matrosova’s attempt at being rescued.
Temperatures overnight dipped to 30 degrees below zero. That, coupled with the 100 mph winds, forced rescue efforts to turn back.
Finally, on Monday, rescue teams made up of Fish and Game officers, Mountain Rescue Services members and Androscoggin Valley Search and Rescue members were able to find Kate Matrosova’s body.
Goss noted that there is a lesson to be learned from Kate Matrosova.
He added of the tragedy, “I guess if you are gonna hike in this type of weather you need to be in a more sheltered area, not up on an open exposed ridgeline. There’s just no room for error in a place like that.”
What do you think of Kate Matrosova going hiking alone in below zero temps with unspeakable wind chills?
Phil Robertson, conservative and outspoken patriarch of Duck Dynasty fame, will be rewarded for standing by his faith and comments about the LGBT community.
The star of the hit A&E show will be given the Andrew Breitbart Defender of the First Amendment Award for free speech.
Phil Robertson will be given the honor at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC.
CPAC is one of the biggest conservative political events of the year.
Phil Robertson will join last year’s recipient, author and conservative talk show host Mark Levin.
Phil Robertson made huge waves over a year ago when he made comments about the LGBT community that were seen as exceedingly controversial.
For example, in case anyone needs reminding, this gem, “It seems like, to me, a vagina—as a man—would be more desirable than a man’s anus. That’s just me. I’m just thinking: There’s more there! She’s got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I’m saying? But hey, sin: It’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.”
A&E indefinitely suspended Phil Robertson from his own show, but reinstated him after a severe backlash from the show’s main fanbase, politcal conservatives.
After the controvery took its toll on fans and offendees, Phil Robertson still stood behind his beliefs on the matter.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjqccYmx13w
Citizens United president David Bossie said, “Even when the entire mainstream media demanded he disavow his beliefs and attempted to have him fired from his own hit show for expressing these beliefs, he stood firm in his faith.”
If you watch the show, you won’t be surprised by Phil Robertson standing behind his statements, as well as his right to freedom of speech.
Phil Robertson said later of the controversy, “When one does not have the freedom to speak out loud and anywhere what one believes, freedom is dead.”
What do you think? Should Phil Robertson receive this award?
Courteney Cox celebrated Jennifer Aniston’s birthday last week at the famed Roosevelt Hotel’s Spare Room.
The $5,000 venue was the perfect place for Courteney Cox to join Aniston in ringing in her 46th birthday.
The birthday bash was full of Aniston’s A-list friends. Besides Courteney Cox, guests included Jennifer Aniston’s long-time fiance, Justin Theroux, as well as her famous couple friends, John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, and Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen.
Also in attendance was Tobey Maguire, Jennifer Meyer, Ken Marino, the fabulous Amy Adams, Lake Bell, and Jennifer Aniston’s hairstylist Chris McMillan.
Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, and all of the other guests enjoyed bowling at the room’s double lane, as well as backgammon, chess, monopoly, dominos, and playing cards.
The party, which lasted from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m., was “pretty laid back”, according to a source.
However, Courteney Cox had everyone a little concerned when, on the same day as Jennifer Aniston’s birthday party, she was spotted having a bit of an emotional breakdown while talking with a friend outside of a Starbucks.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d36LFNh2dQw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvbTnmNC4_4
Some have speculated that the only thing that could cause her so much pain must have something to do with her fiance, Snow Patrol rocker Johnny McDaid.
Courteney Cox became engaged to McDaid last year.
Courtney Cox revealed on a September episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! that his proposal was incredibly sweet and involved her 10-year-old daughter with David Arquette, Coco.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-DZTYCwEtk
“He gave her a little diamond ring and got on his knee,” Courteney Cox said. “And she said, ‘Great! I’m going to camp tomorrow. Let’s do it right now!’”
So, Coco and Johnny McDaid planned to do it at Coco’s birthday party, thrown by none other than Jennifer Aniston.
Courtney Cox elaborated, “They made a plan to count down from three, and when they got to one, he was gonna get down on his knee and say, ‘Will you marry me?’ and she was gonna say, ‘Will you marry him?’”
She added, “They planned it out, they found the perfect tree, with three branches that led to one trunk — it was just beautiful.”
That is lovely. Hopefully Courteney Cox’s tears aren’t a sign that something has gone awry in her relationship with Johnny McDaid.
What do you think Courteney Cox could be so upset about on the day of her BFF’s birthday party?
Gina Carano, MMA star turned in-demand movie star, is all set to join Ryan Reynolds in the Fox movie Deadpool.
Reynolds is Deadpool, who is an assassin that happens to be dying of cancer.
When he gets a drastic treatment to cure him of cancer, he instead becomes mutated and scarred. But, he also gains super powers.
Gina Carano will be portraying a character known as Angel Dust. She is associated with the comic book classification of Morlock, which are underground mutants in the Marvel universe.
Katherine Webb, former Miss Alabama, was shocked at all of the negative comments she received after posting a bikini photo to Instagram.
The 25-year-old wife of AJ McCarron got over 10,000 likes on the photo, but some people just couldn’t sit idly by and let someone post a bikini pic to Instagram without throwing their opinion, and sometimes hateful comments, at them.
Some of the comments on Katherine Webb’s pic are really hurtful.
“Someone please get her a sandwich. What happened she looked amazing but now is looking anorexic,” said one commentator who is surely perfect-looking.
Another person with obviously zero body issues said, “Have a donut. Make that a dozen.”
A photo posted by Katherine Webb-McCarron (@_katherinewebb) on
“I was really surprised at the response, just of the amount of disgust and disapproval with the way I looked,” Katherine Webb said.
She added, “It’s a very sensitive issue for me because I dealt with self-esteem issues growing up. I was tall and thin and lanky.”
Katherine Webb used the interview to send a message, saying, “To the bullies and to people that want to say negative things, really think about what you’re saying. Can you imagine if someone said those things to you?”
What do you think about all of the mean comments lobbed at Katherine Webb over her bikini photo?
Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin reportedly caused quite the stir when they showed up together at Harry Styles’ 21st birthday party together.
The couple have been dating since last summer, so their presence together was not surprising.
However, it was apparently difficult for Alexa Chung, who also attended the party and who Martin dated for a brief time after his split with Gwyneth Paltrow, to see Martin with Jennifer Lawrence.
The British fashionista was “totally thrown” by their lovey-doveyness.
“Alexa hadn’t seen Chris since they dated last year and was totally thrown when he walked in holding hands with Jennifer Lawrence. She avoided them all night and got a little upset in front of friends, saying how hard it was to see Chris with someone else,” a source said.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ_snHiRZ9I
It wasn’t just seeing Chris Martin with someone else. It was seeing him be very flirtatious with Jennifer Lawrence that really did it.
“Chris and Jennifer were really tactile with each other, which left Alexa feeling even more hurt,” an insider said.
The insider added, “She tried to say hello to him while Jennifer was talking to other friends but told her pals it was really awkward.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ_snHiRZ9I
Well, at least none of the couple’s exes had to see them faun over each other on Valentine’s day.
Chris Martin reportedly spent the special day on the beach with Gwyneth Paltrow and their kids, Moses, 8, and Apple, 10.
A source said, “[They] spent several hours on the beach. Gwyneth and Chris were friendly, but they always are. Chris spent most of the time with the kids in the ocean, and Gwyneth stayed with friends on the beach. Chris even surfed with the kids. He is a great dad and very patient.”
Jennifer Lawrence stayed in Boston to work on her new movie, Joy, but filming was postponed after the snow hit.
A tsunami warning that was issued for Japan was downgraded to a watch at about 10 am local time.
A 6.7 magnitude earthquake, for which the epicenter was at a depth of about 14 miles, shook much of northeast Japan.
It was reported that the quake could be felt all the way in Tokyo, which is about 330 miles away.
Luckily, the estimated time that a wave would strike the coast with devastating effects came and went without event.

“Because the 3/11 earthquake had such a strong impact, and because it’s an area where it was affected by the 3/11 Earthquake, we are describing this as an ‘aftershock,’” said agency seismologist, Yasuhiro Yoshida
After the quake came and went, and the tsunami warning was issued, a reported 10,000 people had been urged to get to high ground.
However, the result was non-threatening. Small tsunamis were recorded along the coast of Iwate prefecture in Japan, but none that would have caused any damage.
