When Life Is Good, It Is SO Good

We’re so used to Kylie Jenner making us feel bad feelings — exasperation at her growing lips, hopelessness for her future, that sort of thing — that we forget that she is still capable of doing some good. It might not happen often, and it might not be much, but she does have the ability to raise our spirits on rare occasion.

And that’s exactly what she did when she took to her app to recount a fabulous memory of this one time that she got on stage with Gwen Stefani and sang “Hollaback Girl”:

“My first concert ever was Gwen Stefani in 2005! During the ‘B-A-N-A-N-A-S’ part of ‘Hollaback Girl,’ she brought a bunch of girls onstage to sing with her. One of her backup dancers put me on his shoulders and then Gwen put the mic in front of me to sing. I was so little! But it was cool because I ended up going on Gwen’s concert DVD, ‘Harajuku Lovers Live.’”

And you know you have to see the video:

Thank you for this gift, Kylie. We will never forget it. Not ever.

And the ‘Sticky Balls’ Jokes Keep On Comin’

Okay, so this is right on the maturity line. Like, too much juvenile humor is a turn-off, you know? But this toed the line but didn’t cross it. It was cute.

So, Jimmy Fallon’s guest was a man synonymous with one of the biggest memes of 2015 — John Cena. And they decided to play a game that’s really just a goofy variant of dodgeball. It’s just that, instead of bouncing, the balls stick to the goofy pajama suits that they’re wearing. And there are the obvious … no, obligatory … remarks about the “sticky balls.” Not unlike that one “Saturday Night Live” skit — you know the one.

The hilarity of two grown men being too self-conscious to immediately touch a ball attached to a suit on the other guy’s hip was amusing. John Cena didn’t do it at all, but Jimmy Fallon, we guess, finally worked up the nerve. Even the mild downsides of masculinity are just, objectively, super weird.

That didn’t stop John Cena from throwing in a few goofy lines of his own.

“Just two dudes playing Sticky Balls. Exhausted.”

Enough said.

Breaking the Internet Again — For a Good Cause

We’re always here for nudity because it’s beautiful and brave — but it’s even better when there’s a positive message attached.

Kim Kardashian’s nude selfie caused quite a stir (ugh, we mean a conversation, don’t be gross), and a huge part of the response was inexplicably negative. Like, we may never truly understand why a woman being naked in the privacy of her own bathroom and sharing a censored image of her nudity earns scorn, but we guess that a lot of people feel better or more powerful when they condemn women for … existing, basically.

Emily Ratajkowski isn’t shy about her body, either. It might be beautiful, but it’s hers, and she can show as much or as little of it as she likes without forfeiting her right to be a person deserving of respect. We hate that we have to say that, but some people need to hear the message.

So when the two of them posed together for a tandem topless selfie, they made their feelings towards haters very, very clear:

Kim shared the image on Instagram with a caption referencing her previous picture.

Emily Ratajkowski shared the same image on Twitter, with a very important message — abbreviated in places.

“However sexual our bodies may be, we need to [have] the freedom as women to choose [when] & how we express our sexuality.”

Super true. These are the kinds of messages that have to be shared, again and again, if we’re going to change the culture and actually treat women like people.

刘雨柔性感顽抗水柱攻击 全裸秀肌线

模特儿出身的刘雨柔,近日塑身有成,除了推出一本健身书昭告天下她的塑身之道,更以全裸之姿辣登四月份FHM男人帮国际中文版杂志封面,毫不扭捏展示她的完美身形。

说到刘雨柔开始运动的顿悟,完全拜另一半健身教练之赐,让她获得正确的运动知识,而这对在健身房里结缘的热血情侣,每天不但一起运动,还会互相检查对方身体有没有走样、䏎肉有没有松弛;难怪刘雨柔再三自嘲,「我还满变态地在锻练的。」还直说运动会上瘾。问她会不会考虑接演全裸的戏,她则回答:「前一阵子去试镜,那个角色有几个镜头需要全裸入镜,但我还是觉得先不要比较好,我希望是有美感的​​,不是为了露而露。如果未来遇到真的很好的剧本,我可能会考虑。」

施易男亲为主演「紫色大稻埕」开金口 金曲歌后黄乙玲验货

施易男因为主演的三立金钟大戏「紫色大稻埕」开金口,演唱台语片头曲<大稻埕的天光>,而与台语天后黄乙玲有了「第一类接触」,原因是乙玲姐跟他有共同的制作人-项仲为,在制作人的穿针引线下,金曲天后特别亲自打了1罐精力汤来给施易男探班,却让施易男觉得好紧张,不敢相信偶像黄乙玲就在主控室聆听,出来还急着问:「乙玲姐,妳给我打几分?哪里要注意吗?」没想到乙玲姐谦虚说:「小明明的儿子,你不用问我啦!」当场让大家都笑出来!施易男还带来熬夜赶制的蔓越莓牛轧糖和茶香手工饼干给「乙玲老师」当束修,让黄乙玲眉开眼笑!

台语金曲歌后黄乙玲日前特别赴录音室探后辈施易男的班,因为知道他要录制文学气息的新台语歌,乙玲姐也非常期待,由于知道施易男马不停蹄赶拍「紫色大稻埕」,也知道他常熬夜烘培甜点,因此特别在家用五蔬果加上坚果类,打了1壶又香又浓的正宗精力汤,前来探班施易男,希望他喝了特调的精力汤,可以在录音的当儿,进行体内环保,让身心更舒畅!

知道天后黄乙玲为自己特别进趟录音室,施易男又兴奋又紧张,他发挥阳光大男孩搞笑本性,现场改编黄乙玲名曲<无字的情批>,把头两句唱成:「阿嬷呒识『二』,但是伊识『三四五六七』。」因为原词「阿嬷呒识字」的「字」,和数字「二」的台语音同,施易男耍宝,唱到「二」时,还特别用手比了个胜利V,果然让原唱者黄乙玲噗嗤一笑,拉近了彼此的距离,而当施易男恭敬问她配唱的成果:「乙玲姐,有哪里需要改进吗?」黄乙玲知道施易男的母亲是歌仔戏名旦小明明,还望着他认真说:「你是小明明的儿子捏!」意即他有个全台湾最棒的台语老师,万万不可来问乙玲姐,相当谦虚!

其实,施易男和黄乙玲早因甜点而结缘,黄乙玲很欣赏施易男做甜点的精神,可以熬夜不睡,也要追求极致,相当具有冒险犯难、实事求是的精神,因此当时在订购了1次之后,觉得惊艳,马上又下了大量订单,想分享给她的朋友们,但施易男因为拍戏太忙,手上原有的订单已经消化不了,所以亲自打电话给乙玲姐道歉,忍痛退了黄乙玲的单,公司同事得知后大喊:「你居然敢退黄乙玲的单?」立时被「修理」一顿,也因此,当知道乙玲姐特地前来听他配唱台语歌,前一晚熬夜不睡,赶工做出纯天然的蔓越莓牛轧糖和茶香手工饼,送给乙玲姐当做束修,黄乙玲嫌他太客气,也倒了精力汤要他趁鲜喝下,双方意外在录音室喝了个原味下午茶,宾主尽欢!黄乙玲并期许施易男继续努力,祝福他发片成功!为台语歌曲尽一份心力!

Just When You Thought ‘Teen Mom’ Couldn’t Get Any Worse …

Hope you’re ready to feel that special kind of outrage and disgust that only comes from deplorable behavior aired on national television, because that’s all you’re going to get after last night’s brand new episode of “Teen Mom 2.”

Remember last week, all the Leah Messer drama? She didn’t feed her kids because she didn’t have any food in her house, she texted while driving with those kids in the back of the car, and then she got on Twitter to defend herself against all the terrible people who thought she should take care of her children and not endanger their lives. Crazy, right?

But the new episode, if you can even believe it, is way worse than the last one. It seems that Leah still hasn’t been able to remember to get out to the grocery store, because there was nothing in her house again this week. One of the twins asked her “Do we have anything to drink?” Leah didn’t answer her, so the kid started crying, said “God, you don’t even have nothing. Dang it, mom!” and then went outside and threw herself on the ground. Parenting at its finest!

The real tragedy happened at the end of the episode, when Leah asked a family member to go pick up the twins at school. “I don’t feel like I should be driving with as tired as I am,” that was her reasoning. She kept talking about how “emotionally drained” she was and how that was the cause of her exhaustion, which is fair — there’s the custody battle, and one of the twins has muscular dystrophy and will probably need to use a wheelchair full time within the next year or so — but a lot of people seem to think that being tired wasn’t Leah’s main problem. She was slurring a bit while explaining her situation, she had trouble keeping her eyes open, and finally she passed out. With all the rumors of her prescription pill abuse, it doesn’t look good for Leah at all.

At the end of the episode, Corey Simms, Leah’s ex-husband and the father of the twins, was shown getting primary custody. But that was several months ago, and we know that the agreement has changed since then so that she has them more often again. Hopefully she’s learned how to be a decent parent in the meantime, huh?

Ashley Graham Ads ‘Topless’ to Her Repertoire of Lovely Looks

If those hands were off by just an inch … well, she certainly couldn’t have shown the picture on Instagram.

As if Ashley Graham weren’t already slaying us enough with her swimsuit cover or her general excellence, she went and shared some mega-hot Maxim photos.

This is a model who could look outrageously hot in just about any outfit, but these photos are more about what she’s not wearing:

When your husband shows up to work.. 😏 @maximmag

That one looks a little retouched, sure, but, um … the rest of the picture more than makes up for it.

Soko Drops the ‘L-Word’ About Kristen Stewart — This is Too Cute

So, what do we call them? “KSoko?”

How about just calling them “adorable,” because that absolutely describes them.

Soko and Kristen Stewart have been seen hanging out all over, including holding hands and making out. And while they haven’t really done a press release on their reported relationship, Soko gave an interview and it sounds like she just could not contain herself.

The interview was ostensibly about Soko’s Instagram-to-zine project about the endless DMs that she receives, many of which are of a sexual nature, from both men and women. And that’s interesting enough — especially with the revelation that a couple of those social media DMs led to real life dates. But the part where she describes her current relationship is so much juicier:

“I’m very, very, very in love and very happy in a relationship.”

And that’s great to hear. Then comes the question: “I’m assuming you didn’t meet your current girlfriend (Kristen Stewart) through a DM, though?”

“No! No. [Laughs]. It was very OG.”

We don’t know exactly how or when they met — though based on that reply, they met very organically, in person, just like cavepeople used to do. But while there’s been some debate over the nature of their relationship (we’ve all platonically made out with somebody before, right?), this interview seems to clear up any lingering ambiguity.

And to make us super, super happy for the two of them.
