Behold: The Power of Adele

Adele really brings everyone together.

Jimmy Fallon isn’t the only talk show host who likes to get his guests to play with goofy tech things like this. And, you know, they’re great for people who want something to do at a party but they’re no good at dancing or talking or Mario Kart … and have never heard of alcohol.

His latest guest took a break from being rumored to be banging Nick Jonas … to play around with lip syncing.

Now, we don’t mind admitting that there’s something difficult to define about Kate Hudson that just rubs us the wrong way. And we know that it’s probably unfair — it’s not like we’re picking up on subtle cues that she collects human femurs or something. But we just don’t light up when she smiles like we do with some people.

But “Hello” is just such a powerful, beautiful song. It’s so evocative, and while most of us can’t actually sing it well at all, we all love to pretend that we can. So this scene made Kate Hudson seem more relatable than ever before.

It’s not the first time that she’s shown how moved she is by this song, however.

Kendall, Gigi, and Bella: Twerking Hard or Hardly Twerking?

Everybody’s twerking for the … weekday.

If we were in the business of recommending the best clothing for twerking, our first thought wouldn’t be a Chanel couture dress. Honestly, that’s probably even further down the list than “bathrobe” or “nun’s habit.”

But Kendall Jenner is actually … really making this work, here. Maybe part of that is because the dress accentuates her butt’s rhythmic movements? But her pose and everything are, for the brief window of this video, pretty perfect.

Comparatively, Gigi Hadid and Bella Hadid look a little awkward, but they’re still radiantly gorgeous and the whole thing is still cute. And we’re glad that it’s just one of them twerking — a video of all three of them twerking would have been a little uncomfortable, you know?

Lena Dunham Is Talking Sense, Now? 2016 Is a Brave New World

Even a broken old-timey clock is right twice a day.

Wow, it’s refreshing to see Lena Dunham talking about something in a way that’s more than just a desperate cry for attention. Like, she’s actually making a little sense, here. Because the media’s coverage of Hillary Clinton tends to be … shameful.

“The way that Hillary Clinton’s been talked about in the media is so gendered and rabidly sexist in every single portrayal. Whether it’s the attacks on her personal life or the adjectives that are used to describe her clothing, we have to do a full reexamination. Like I literally want to make a list that we hand to media outlets that says, ‘These are the words you can’t use when describing a female candidate: shrill, inaccessible, difficult, frumpy, plastic.’”

She doesn’t get specific, but we can all think of at least a few instances of this.

Admittedly, we’ve been more perturbed by some people who, less experienced in the misery inherent to democracy, seem very critical of the fact that Hillary Clinton is an electable politician. And then, of course, there are contrarians and mansplainers who assume that anyone voting for Hillary in the primaries just doesn’t understand what’s good for them.

We’re waiting eagerly for the primaries to be over, but we know that it’s only going to get nastier when the real race begins. At least in the primaries, people more or less agree and there’s always the idea of being a running mate or a VP from the other candidates and their campaigns.

The final stretch of the election cycle is absolutely merciless.

Flat Earth Theorists Still Exist, Which Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things Read more: http://www.fishwrapper.com/post/2016/01/25/flat-earth-theorist-bob-rapper-tweets-conspiracy-theorist-bizarre-ideas-neil-degrasse-tyson-explains/#ixzz3yKfQWklp Follow us: @fishwrapped on Twitter

It’s honestly sad how the word “truther” is the first indicator that someone’s spewing misinformation.

B.o.B is a rapper with over 2 million followers, because that’s the world that we inhabit. Sunday evening, he decided that he was going to share some of the absolute nonsense that he apparently believes:

Seems like an innocent question, right? The sort of question that someone who doesn’t have a clear perspective on the size of the Earth might pose.

Except no, he wasn’t asking a question of his followers with a sense of childlike wonder. He meant the question as a challenge. A “wake up America” sort of challenge.

He began to tweet picture after picture from one of those ridiculous conspiracy websites.

The shape of the Earth has been known for thousands of years (yes, really), and for a grown-ass man to seemingly refuse to believe it betrays his utter lack of understanding of the nature of the entire universe.

This is the kind of bewildering conspiracy theory that makes the Illuminati/chemtrails folks seem like they’re grounded in reality. Which, to be clear, they aren’t. Like, at least those zany ideas could be true according to the way that the universe works.

Oh, and in case you’re thinking that this is a huge surprise, B.o.B’s expressed some other, um, “ideas” about how the world works.

We honestly don’t even know where to begin on that one.

If you’re thinking that you understand enough about the world to know that B.o.B is slinging a lot of nonsense, but that you don’t know enough to explain to him why he’s wrong, you’re not alone.

Thankfully for us all, Neil deGrasse Tyson exists. He took the time to explain a few specific points. It probably won’t do any good for B.o.B, because conspiracy theorists are well, well beyond reason. But it could help some of his confused followers.

B.o.B, in the mean time, is probably just going to keep sticking to the opposite of Occam’s razor: whatever explanation is the most convoluted and improbable is real.

《因為愛情有奇蹟》點閱破五十億 各種經典橋段吸睛網友最愛「外遇梗」

中天娛樂台熱播中的《因為愛情有奇蹟》結合許多網友最愛的戲劇經典橋段,包括外遇、失憶、婆媳問題、家族爭產等,加上總是樂觀奮鬥的女主角,在大陸播出時收視直逼《武媚娘》,並在網路創造超過五十億人次點閱的驚人紀錄。明(25)日起播出女主角趙韓櫻子因被戲裡飾演婆婆的徐貴櫻趕出家門後不幸遭遇車禍,被另一位男主角彭冠英騎車撞傷頭部因而失憶,無法接受妻子失憶的林佑威崩潰大吼更起疑心病認為妻子與彭冠英有曖昧情,不少重情緒的戲碼林佑威都不顧形象卯足全力咆哮,在大陸播出時被網友封為新一代「咆哮帝」,林佑威本人則感謝網友肯定演技。

許多網友看了徐貴櫻飾演的惡婆婆也直呼氣炸,尤其是為拆散兒子林佑威和媳婦趙韓櫻子不惜在林佑威襯衫印上自己的唇印製造「外遇」假象,引來網友怒批:「根本戀子情結!」不僅如此,徐貴櫻為了栽贓媳婦趙韓櫻子也搞婚外情,除了假意送上有GPS定位的新手機給趙韓櫻子之外,竟發假媒體偷偷跟拍媳婦,堪稱最「科技化」惡婆婆。對於劇中不少偷拍橋段,男主角林佑威也「驚驚」,他笑稱在「全民皆狗仔」的時代平時也滿怕被偷拍,搞笑表示「怕拍出來太醜」。而徐貴櫻劇中火力全開對付媳婦心機算盡,溺愛子女更是溢於言表,對此徐貴櫻本人坦言「有時父母對子女的過度溺愛反而會害了兒女。」徐貴櫻分析若家長在孩子成長過程都事事盡量滿足成「孝子」,孩子可能會因無法在挫折中成長而不自知,直到有天發現在待人處事或面對感情都不順遂時,才知道是家庭教育造成這樣的結果。

The Porn Oscars Apparently Don’t Care What You’re Accused Of … Just Like the Regular Oscars

You know how a lot of institutions continue to reward people, no matter what heinous things they’re accused of doing?

Turns out that the “Porn Oscars” are just like the Oscars in that respect.

Last fall, Stoya — among other women — finally broke her silence on Twitter and leveled sexual assault allegations against the often celebrated porn actor, James Deen. Seeing that they weren’t the only ones, other women came forward about Deen.

Since then, a number of major porn studios have cut ties with him — which is absolutely the right thing to do. “Innocent until proven guilty” is how our judicial system operates (sometimes), but in the real world, we know how difficult it is to prove sexual assault and abuse, particularly when the accuser is anything other than an elderly white heterosexual nun.

But apparently the Adult Video News Awards couldn’t be bothered to care about a little thing like an alleged sexual predator in their midst.

His awards were for for “Best Group Sex Scene” and “Best Double Penetration Sex Scene.” In general, those are great categories, but surely any scene that didn’t have James Deen in it would be better … right? People who support Woody Allen films or Roman Polanski films or any other works of art by scum-of-the-Earth love to claim that they “support the art, not the artist.” Like, as if you could support art without supporting the artist.

And you’d think that it would be different for porn, in particular. You’d think that the presence of an accused serial rapist on the screen would be a huge buzzkill … to the point where the video itself wouldn’t be enjoyed by its audience. But, unfortunately, that is not the case.

All awards shows seem to be cut from the same rape-culturey cloth, huh?

Selena Gomez Dominated on SNL With Her Steamiest Performance Ever

Is there no end to her power and beauty?

We’ve made no secret of our love for Selena Gomez, and with good reason — she’s absolutely amazing. She’s a phenomenal singer, she’s a spectacular actress, and she’s super incredibly gorgeous. Plus, she seems to be a nice person. That always counts for something.

So, as you can imagine, we were beside ourselves with delight over her “Saturday Night Live” performances last night.

She started with a medley of “Same Old Love” and “Good For You,” both songs from her latest album — and both released as singles before the album came out, too. We’d never heard them as a medley before, and as crushed as we were that she didn’t include the marquis diamond verse (that’s our favorite part), it was still really successful. “Good For You” might be our favorite song from the album, actually.

But her super sexy, hella steamy “Hands To Myself” performance was just jaw-dropping.

That bed might seem a little small (we’re not fans of having half our legs dangling off), but it’s for a performance — and it’s, um, definitely not for sleeping. Not for her, and certainly not for either of her guests on that bed.

It was so cute, and the big grin that she’d flash periodically during the performance were terribly endearing.

More of this, please.
