Caitlyn Jenner Thanks Teens for Making Her Social Media Queen

Forget a Gold Medal in the Olympic decathlon. Caitlyn Jenner took home the biggest honor of her career at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards on Sunday night: She was voted Social Media Queen! An impressive victory, Caitlyn defeated such competition for the surfboard as Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus , Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, and Nicki Minaj. Because the category was not among those televised, however, Caitlyn did not get to take the stage and give an acceptance speech. (Which is too bad, considering the praise she received for her ESPYs speech in July.) Therefore, Jenner took to social media (d’uh!) on Monday to issue a note of gratitude, writing on Twitter: “I just heard… We did it! Thank you so much for voting to crown this old newbie! #SocialMediaQueen #TeenChoice.” Elsewhere at the ceremony, meanwhile, Kendall Jenner was named Choice Model, while Kim Kardashian lost in her two categories (Choice Selfie Taker and Choice Instagrammer). Also, The Voice beat Keeping Up with the Kardashians for Choice TV: Reality Show. View Slideshow: Caitlyn Jenner Photos: So Long, Bruce!

Emily Ratajkowski Watches Game of Thrones Naked, Forever Wins the Internet

We’ve already heard Emily Ratajkowski talk about her sex life . (No handcuffs!) We’ve seen her get naked and mount Ben Affleck in Gone Girl. (No, she didn’t play the nanny.) And, of course, her nude, bouncy presence in the “Blurred Lines” video even made Robin Thicke tolerable (for a little while). What we’re saying is, the girl is far from shy, and we thank her for that. She’s been making the Internet a more beautiful place for over two years now, and until today we honestly didn’t think she could win our hearts any more than she already has. Then she went and talked about watching Game of Thrones naked: “I chug water and take off my makeup,” Emily recently told Harper’s Bazaar when asked about her nightly routine. “I don’t sleep with clothes on, so I just get naked, get under the covers, put on Game of Thrones, and relax.” Yes, now you can watch Game of Thrones online with the knowledge that EmRat might be enjoying the same episode in the buff at that very moment.  More importantly, showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are now presented with an opportunity to present a glorious gift to all of mankind. They know that Emily Ratajkowski loves combining nudity and GoT. If they don’t immediately call her up and offer her a naked cameo, then we basically have no choice but to show up at their front doors and go full Jon Snow on them. It’s only fair.

She’s been saving herself for marriage, meaning Laich will be the first person EVER to tap this: View Slideshow: 17 Photos of Julianne Hough That May Melt Your Screen

Difficult People: Amy Poehler Sitcom Jokes About Blue Ivy Carter Being Abused By R. Kelly

These days, we have so many entertainment options that It's difficult for a new show to break through, particularly when it features no major stars and airs on a streaming service that's not Netflix. Fortunately, we have some tips:  Focus on solid writing. Trust in the intelligence of the audience. Never ever, ever make a “joke” about child molestation, particularly when said “joke” involves a beloved toddler and a famously horrific real-life crime. Yes, for some reason, the writers of the new Amy Poehler-produced sitcom Difficult People thought they'd search for some laughs in SVU territory. Needless to say, it didn't go well. We can't even bring bring ourselves to quote the creepy-ass dialogue here, but suffice to day, it involves Blue Ivy Carter and the R. Kelly molestation case . Watch if you must, but say we didn't warn you.

Tim McGraw Duets with Crazy Talented Daughter: Watch!

When it comes to Tim McGraw, the talented apple doesn't fall far from the very successful tree. The country music superstar brought his oldest daughter, Gracie, out on stage with him during a concert at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville this weekend, surprising audiences with a special daddy-daughter duet. A very impressive daddy-daughter duet, we should say, as Gracie showed considerable skill while singing “Here Tonight,” a track off her father’s upcoming album. And if you’re wondering where McGraw’s prettier half was during the show, The Tennessean reports that Faith Hill received a standing ovation after the couple performed their 1997 single “It’s Your Love.” What a talented family, huh?

Justin Bieber Donates Ticket Sale Proceeds to Tennessee Flood Relief

Is it possible that Justin Bieber is even more charitable than he is adorable? The 16-year old sensation performed at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee last night. Prior to the concert, he announced that, for every ticket purchased, $1.06 would go to area flood relief, as the region still recovers from a massive spring storm that left many dead and homeless. Ke$ha, Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus have all performed benefit concerts in the state since this natural disaster struck. “I’m really glad to be here and help out, something that’s really important to me,” Bieber said at a press conference prior to the event, which raised $32,000-plus for the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee. No wonder Justin is considered a young world leader , huh?

Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift Rise Up for Nashville

Darn you, Miley Cyrus! This is the second consecutive day you’ve done something to force our praise, rather than our scorn. Yesterday, we gave you props for wearing pants and delivering an important message to fans . Now, we must acknowledge the role you played last night at Nashville Rising: A Benefit Concert For Flood Recovery. The event was held at the Bridgestone Arena in Tennessee and raised money for victims of massive storms in that area earlier this year. Said Miley, unfortunately bringing the tragedy back to herself: “We have a big farm with crops and I think that was affected a little bit. The scariest thing was not being able to get in touch with people because the phone lines were down.” As seen above, Taylor Swift also played a role in the concert. She said of the flooding: “For me, the fact that there were members of my band that lost their homes really affected me because those are my friends. Those are the people I call up as soon as we get home. The fact that it affected my band, that’s the most directly it affected me.” Toby Keith, Carrie Underwood , ZZ Top and Miranda Lambert also performed at the event. Below, check out more photos of Miley and Taylor from it:
