'Kingdom' actress Kiele Sanchez opens up about the loss of her and Zach Gilford's baby



- Her and Zach Gilford (from Friday Night Lights) married in 2013 after meeting on the set of The Purge 2
- The actress and her husband lost their son, Winter after she had suffered a late-term miscarriage in October 2015
- Her pregnancy was written into the show's storyline, and the creator of the show, Byron Balasco, let her know that she had full say over how the script was written
- Sanchez decided to have the miscarriage written into the plot as a way to help to herself heal
- She relied on meds, therapy, alcohol, and exercise to cope with the pain but said that having her character go through the ordeal was a cathartic experience for her

Some quotes:
- Lost is not the right word. Lost implies I misplaced him. That I was careless. Maybe that’s why we women feel such shame. We didn’t lose them. They were ripped from our clutched hands.
- I fantasized about being dead with him. I would have dreams where he was still inside me and I would wake up and howl that he wasn’t. The abruptness of the loss was terrifying.
- People keep saying, “He’s with you always. You carry him with you, in your heart.” I smile kindly and don’t say, “But I want to carry him in my belly. In my arms. Babies are big and my heart is small, tender and beaten.”
- The reasons I hated myself are endless. I was never one of those “glowy” pregnant women. In fact, I hated it. I would bitch about it constantly. I questioned if I would be a good mom and felt the universe decided I wouldn’t be. I wasn’t able to do the one thing that biology and evolution and society told me I would be able to do.

The rest of her writing can be read at the source here. Just a fair warning though, it is pretty heavy and gut-wrenching.

Kim Kardashian shares that she's reading a book about near-death experiences



Kimmy shared on Snapchat a pic of the book she's reading, Embraced by the Light by Betty J. Eadie, a memoir of how the author supposedly died and came back to life.

Official summary:
"On the night of November 19, 1973, following surgery, thirty-one-year-old wife and mother Betty J. Eadie died.... This is her extraordinary story of the events that followed, her astonishing proof of life after physical death. She saw more, perhaps than any other person has seen before and shares her almost photographic recollections of the remarkable details. Compelling, inspiring, and infinitely reassuring, her vivid account gives us a glimpse of the peace and unconditional love that awaits us all. More important, Betty's journey offers a simple message that can transform our lives today, showing us our purpose and guiding us to live the way we were meant to -- joyously, abundantly, and with love."

Shakira and her family go to Colombia for the first time, Chantaje reaches 300M views

Shakira, her boyfriend and their two children Milan and Sasha Piqué went to Shakira's hometown, Barranquilla, for a brief post-Christmas visit. It was the first time Shakira's boyfriend went to Colombia, and it was also the first time for her youngest son, Sasha.

They spent four days there, in which they had the opportunity to visit Shakira's old school and also check on the school Shakira and her Barefoot Foundation built in Barranquilla.

Besides spending time with Shakira's parents, the family went to a trip on the Magdalena River and Shakira's boyfriend signed a shirt.




Here you have a video of Milan being cute just because:

_____

And in other news, Shakira's most recent song (feat. Hot Colombian Douche) has become one of the most successful streaming Latin songs of last year, becoming the fastest Spanish song to hit 300M views on Youtube and the four fastest of all time. It's averaging about 6M views per day.

Chantaje is also no. 11 in Worldwide Spotify and no. 65 in the Billboard 100.

Se7en reveals he expected the cold response to his comeback

by Vivienne

Article: Se7en, "I expected the cold response so it hurts less" [interview]

Source: TV Daily via Nate

1. [+1,161, -27] Celebrities really are more shameless than we can ever imagine..

2. [+936, -32] He might perhaps be suffering from mythomania ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+825, -31] Yeah, well, you have nothing but hurt left ahead of you...

4. [+50, -6] It's funny to me how when celebrities do something wrong and apologize for it, it's never "I'm sorry for this specific thing", it's always something vague like, "Something bad happened and I'm sorry and I'm overcoming it and it's tough but I'll get through it" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+42, -4] I don't get why he can't just live a quiet life with that Lee Da Hae or whatever... why does he choose to stand before the public and make a laughing stock out of himself?..

6. [+31, -4] Whatever the case, his style is just so outdated now. Does he think that his concept still works in this generation? The public expects more... there are already so many better, higher quality idols nowadays.

7. [+29, -2] His skincare management tips: "My skin? I don't do face masks. I don't get procedures done either. I'm too lazy to even get facials. I'm the type to just sleep more. I don't smoke and drink sometimes." ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ For someone who's too lazy to even go to facials, he sure wasn't lazy to go to a massage parlor ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+27, -2] Putting all his scandals aside, his new song is just so bad. For all the scandals that people like Lee Soo and MC Mong have caused, their songs are always charting at the top. Why do you think that is?

9. [+26, -3] Without considering any of your scandals, your song is just bad ㅜㅜ

10. [+23, -1] He continues to talk like he's the victim..

11. [+19, -3] Guys, don't hate on him until you've actually listened to his new song. I listened to it and it sounds like he's still stuck in the 2000s. Now that I've listened to it, I can confidently hate on Se7en all I want. Your song sucks.

3. [+130, -10] They're the ones who called Mnet's system outdated and unfair so they should reject the award, right? How did they suddenly become "fair" in a week?

4. [+25, -7] Ugh, another #1 awarded through stupid fangirls and company power. Too bad your CEO is in another scandal, tsk tsk.

5. [+23, -6] The points were just as ridiculous ㅋ what do you expect from Hyum Suk

6. [+16, -1] Why are these rookies so picky with where they perform on?? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+15, -4] Other groups work their butts off on stage and barely make it on the charts.. but these kids win #1 so easily with company power.

8. [+13, -8] Ugh, give the award to Noh Ji Hoon or Ailee, iKON is so untalented.

9. [+12, -5] No but really, why aren't they promoting on broadcast?

10. [+11, -4] I find Got7 being nominated just as ridiculous... they're not even on the digital charts, how are they in the running for #1 at all? These shows are just a battle of the big agencies... Gary or Im Chang Jung should be in the nominations.

Suspension of Disbelief Has Its Limits: Racism in the World of Comic Books

by Rachel Cohen-Rottenberg

This essay first appeared on the Son of Baldwin tumblr blog and is reprinted by permission.

1. Bobby After James

[Image description: The photograph shows the author, a black man in his forties. He has short black hair and dark eyes. He is looking to his right, with his left hand by the side of his face.]

As someone who has collected comic books for 40 years, it has always fascinated me where white people, and people who exalt Whiteness, draw the line in terms of suspension of disbelief.

Generally, they will allow for the most OUTRAGEOUS of possibilities EXCEPT one that will put a marginalized demographic in a space where they believe that marginalized demographic “doesn’t belong.” And they imagine this predilection to be race-neutral and racism-free. They would, in fact, swear on it.

A few years back, I participated in an online panel hosted by my friend, artist/writer Phil Jimenez, where I was the only black person and I was amazed at how casually the other panelist were willing to believe in backward-talking witch-magic, flying saucers, extraterrestrial civilizations, other dimensions, beings strong enough to juggle planets, invisible jets, lanterns that turn will power into green plasma energy constructs, and telepathic gorillas as the most intelligent and civilized species on the African continent (!), but the moment a black person showed up in the mountains of West Virginia, THAT was where their imagination shut down completely. White people in Nigeria made sense, but not black people in the mountains–Melungeons be damned.

And the most frustrating thing about those people and their limited imaginations is how they quickly use “history” and “historical precedent” as tools to defend themselves against accusations of racism. The minute a marginalized person shows up where they “don’t belong,” these people can no longer enjoy the fantasy and they refuse to do the teeniest bit of soul-searching to figure out why. So they retreat to history (an artifact which is largely their own invention as James Baldwin once said) to shield themselves from their own obvious pathology.

Fiction, for them, must be real ENOUGH; and trust me, the devil lies squarely in the “enough”:

“Well, it’s a proven FACT that there were no black people in XX place at YY time.” Yeah? Well, it’s also a proven fact that there were no phase-shifting Martians either, but you seem to be okay with that.

They can’t just be like, “Well, actually, borders were quite porous in those times. It’s a distinct possibility that there were quite a number of Moors or some such in these areas even if they were a small minority–even if history has been whitewashed to such a degree that I was never taught this like I should have been when I was in school.”

Nah.

None of that.

One black person is enough to ruin the entire lily-white dream world.

And they will “But, but, but…” you half to death and get offended when you call them on it.

All the Egyptian gods can be white, but if there’s a single black person on Asgard, the world, for people who exalt Whiteness, is coming to an end.

Ragnarok, chile.

Case in point:

“’Why exactly are all the main characters in ‘Frozen’ white?’ my husband asked a white friend recently. She responded thoughtfully: ‘Well, the movie is set in a Nordic, cold place — you know, it makes sense, right?’ Annoyed, my husband countered, ‘The movie has a talking snowman.’ It’s funny, and sad, where we draw the lines for what’s acceptable in fantasy movies. Somehow a talking snowman makes more sense than, say, a black Norwegian.”

[Headline image: The photograph shows a black woman with curly black hair and dark eyes. She is wearing a one-strap white dress and is touching her hair with her left hand.]

Walmart, Amazon, Ebay and Sears Announce Ban of Conferderate Flag Products


- The Charleston shooter's association with the Confederate flag has led both companies and the South Carolina government to reconsider their affinity towards its usage.

- Their websites currently still hold the products, so no telling when this will go into effect.

- Sales on Amazon of the flag have gone up 1000% or more in the past 24 hours (congrats racists)

Walmart's probably the most surprising since they're based in the South and didn't seem to waver on the Duck Dynasty scandal. We'll see how long they hold the policy.

The Weeknd punched a cop in the face, get arrested.



Around 4 a.m on Saturday the Las Vegas Police Department responded to a disturbance call at the Cromwell Hotel in South Las Vegas Blvd and arrived to find a fight involving some people. The cops pulled The Weeknd aside while trying to disperse the crowd and at this point, our boy Abel punched one of the officer "in the side of the head with a closed fist."

He was then arrested, charged with battery on a protected person and taken to the Clark County Detention Center. It is believed that he has since been released on bail.

'YG girl group' Kim Ji Soo to star in Epik High's title track MV

1. [+595, -47] Aren't they being too mean to Kim Eunbi? She waited two years to be in this girl group tsk tsk

2. [+513, -53] Stop with the package deals. The girl group will do fine on their own if they have the talent.

3. [+486, -35] Media playing about their debut for two years already while Kim Eunbi's kicked. What a waste of her years.

4. [+352, -48] Another package deal?

5. [+288, -66] She's not even that much prettier than the average woman, talk about marketing

6. [+55, -8] All I can think about is Kim Eunbi's wasted two years

7. [+49, -3] Are they sticking in Jang Hanna in place of Kim Eunbi?

8. [+52, -7] I really like YG singers as well as Kim Eunbi so I was looking forward to this girl group but now that she's left and all they've been doing is media playing for two years on top of a package deal now in Epik High's MV after G-Dragon's MV... they'll do well if they have the talents and charms but I don't want to give them my love just yet! Work hard

9. [+48, -8] The most famous member of this team was Kim Eunbi. If the other members can't step it up to be as good as her, the interest in this group will wane. Kim Eunbi could've been the center balance with her broadcast experience and public recognition...

10. [+46, -10] I abhor package deals. I'm a YG but this new girl group.. I'm just disgusted with ㅡㅡ Kim Eunbi wasted four years of her life for Jang Hanna and that iljin Jennie Kim.. Is this a joke.. I'm just disgusted.

Angelina Jolie's children are drawn to her ink! The Maleficent star's six kids
with Brad Pitt -- sons Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, and Knox, 5, and daughters Zahara,
9, Shiloh, 8, and Vivienne, 5 -- can't get enough of their mom's extensive body
art and are constantly asking questions about it, a source reveals in the new
issue of Us Weekly.

"They are obsessed with her tattoos and always ask what they mean," the insider
tells Us, adding that Jolie, 39, is "happy to explain her tats to the kids."
(Among the 13 designs is an etching of the birth coordinates for each of her
children, who were born all over the world, in Cambodia, Vietnam, Ethiopia,
Namibia, and France.)

The source notes that Shiloh is especially fascinated by her mom's ink. And Pax
is already eager to get his own. "Angie tells him he has plenty of time," the
insider says.
