Ivanka Trump: Trolled Hard for Frosty Mother’s Day Message to Ivana

Sunday was Mother’s Day, and like so many other celebrities who wrote tributes to their moms, Ivanka took to Instagram to architect a post of her own. But she’s being slammed in the comments — even by people who seem to like her — for her brief, impersonal post about Ivana. Is she deliberately giving her mom the cold shoulder? Alongside an image of Ivana Trump, her mother who is one of Donald Trump’s ex-wives, Ivanka writes: “Happy Mother’s Day to my amazing mother and the best skier I know!” That’s a … super specific bit of praise. “Love you.” She follows that with a double heart emoji and a “#MothersDay” tag. This was the accompanying image: A number of commenters weren’t exactly overcome with emotion when they saw this glamour shot of Ivana or when they saw her daughter’s message. “That was a weak Mother’s Day wish. Ivana, you deserve better than that.” “How nice… but I’m sure she has some pretty amazing attributes as a mother than just being the best skier.” “You are who you are because of her. She deserves more honor. Happy Mothers Day all!” “Wow, that’s it?! And she’s @itsivanatrump supposed to visit you in #prison?? #prisonprep101 #LockThemAllUp.” “Your dad should’ve been a better husband to her.” Some of those are more political than others, obviously. We included this image, because seeing it may highlight the brevity that alarmed so many commenters. For a comparison, let’s look at Ivanka’s sister, Tiffany Trump, and the post that she made to her mother, Marla Maples. Tiffany writes: “Happy Mother’s Day! [double heart emoji] @itsmarlamaples I love you with all of my heart and I’m so grateful for all of your love!” This caption accompanied a digital collage of photos of Tiffany and Marla: Tiffany’s post is nearly as terse and frosty as Ivanka’s, but the photo collage is much more personal. So perhaps it runs in the family? At the same time, we should consider that even some of the criticisms that were not overtly political may have been politically motivated. After all, it’s not like Ivana Trump has hordes of eager fans looking to defend her honor. Rather, when someone is the daughter of the most hated man on the planet and plays an active role in his policies, everything that she does looks like a mistake. That is understandable — the Mueller investigation is trudging along, but the wheels of justice move slowly. Entertaining revelations about Trump, Russia, and Stormy Daniels  aren’t really enough to distract from the waking nightmare of every day’s news. People are looking to vent, and when the First Daughter can’t seem to synthesize enough human emotion to publish a personal Mother’s Day message, that’s as good of an opportunity as any other. Ivanka and Tiffany’s Christmas video was much, much better than anything that they had to say about their moms. In Ivanka’s defense, she and Jared are very busy at the moment and, in fact, they’re overseas. In her … offense , we suppose … she and Jared are in Israel to oversee the deeply controversial moving of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. This is seen as an insult to the Palestinian people, but some evangelical Christians believe that Trump is fulfilling biblical prophecy and ushering the world towards the End Times. (Hey, both sides of the aisle agree that Trump is leading the world towards its destruction! A rare moment of unity, we suppose) In the mean time, dozens of Palestinian protesters have been killed by Israeli snipers and countless others wounded. In that context, Ivanka’s icy Mother’s Day post is sort of the least of people’s worries. View Slideshow: Ivanka Trump: 15 Photos of Donald’s Gorgeous Daughter!

Even The Blind Can See: Stevie Wonder Speaks On Kanye’s Slavery Speech “That’s Just Foolishness”

(Photo by M. Caulfield/WireImage) Stevie Wonder Questions Whether Kanye West Has Mourned Mother Kanye has been on some bs lately and even 68-year-old Stevie Wonder has had enough. Wonder brought up Kanye West without even being asked during an interview Thursday after a show at a West Hollywood club, according to Associated Press reports: “There’s been a lot of talk about what was said by Kanye,” Wonder said. “I want people to understand that the truth is the truth and a lie is a lie. “We all know that slavery was not a choice,” he went on. “So I just think that people need to understand that if you know your history, if you know the truth, you know that’s just foolishness.” Wonder spoke softly, not angrily, and said he also felt sympathy for West, especially over the rapper losing his mother, who died after having cosmetic surgery procedures in 2007. “You know he lost his mother, the horrible thing that happened,” Wonder said. “I don’t know if he had a chance to really mourn about all that.” There’s no doubt that Kanye is in a lot of pain from losing his mom, but that doesn’t diminish the damage he’s caused with his comments. Do you think Kanye will listen to Stevie?

ANOTHER ONE: Crusty Colonizer Calls The Cops On Black Family Barbecuing In Oakland

Ian O’Leary/Getty Images White Woman Calls Cops On Black Family Barbecuing In Oakland Girl, bye! A choleric cholesterol consuming colonizer got a rude awakening when she thought it’d be cute to call the cops on a black family minding their business. A YouTube video from a woman named Michelle Snider has gone viral after showing the imbecilic actions of a white woman who summoned the police to a park alongside Oakland, California’s Lake Merritt. According to the white woman, it was illegal for them to be using a charcoal grill in that area of the park. Snider, a fellow white woman, then confronted the woman before the unnamed woman burst into unseasoned tears when police showed up. “Are you sure it’s not because you don’t want black people out here,” said Snider. “It seems like a new Jim Crow going on, because for some reason, every time I see this, it’s black people being targeted for barbecuing at the lake,” Snider retorted. “And you’re a perfect example of it right now. It’s two men, sitting out here just chilling. And this whole setup is real clean. They’re not even playing music.” Please watch the entire video to see the hypocrisy of this bored, Cyclops glasses wearing azz beyotch in action. (Sidebar, did you peep the woman telling “Karen” to “go home with her potato salad?” LMAO!) After the video went viral, a gang of black Oakland residents took to the park for a “revenge” cookout complete with the Neglectric Electric Slide. In your face, soup cookie!

Get Paid: Young Dolph Flew Out Two Baristas Fired For Playing His Music And Gave Them $20K At Rolling Loud

Paras Griffin/Getty Images Young Dolph Blessed These Two Fans Who Got Fired For Playing His Music Get paid, young baristas, get paiiiiid. Young Dolph is truly a man of the people, and he proved that by coming through for two baristas who were fired for playing his music at a Duke University cafe. The two baristas, Britni Brown and Kevin Simmons, worked on their campus at the Joe Van Gogh location. The day took an unexpected turn when Larry Moneta, the vice president for student affairs at Duke, walked into the cafe and heard the musical stylings of Young Dolph. For some reason, he got offended, and went out of his way to get the two baristas fired from their jobs. The song playing at the time of Moneta’s visit was Dolph’s motivational anthem, “Get Paid.” Following reports of this story, the rapper expressed his thoughts on the situation via social media. Whoever that VP is, he don’t give a dam about nobody but his self… I guess he was trying to teach the students how to be selfish I guess……… smh — its DOLPHHHHHH! (@YoungDolph) May 9, 2018 But he didn’t only tweet about the situation, he took matters into his own hands. Not only did Dolph fly out the two fired baristas to Rolling Loud in Miami to catch his set, but the mogul also gifted them a calm $20,000. Dolph brought them on stage and said “So check this out, this what we gon do. I know for a fact that the VP at that school get money, but he don’t get money like Dolph…So until y’all get a new job, I got $20,000 for y’all right now,”  Revolt   reports.   Like we said, a man of the people.

True Thompson: She’s Here! For Real! Meet Khloe’s Daughter!

Go ahead and say whatever you want about Tristan Thompson. The guy most certainly deserves it. But he also deserves credit for doing at least one thing right: he has created an extremely cute little girl with Khloe Kardashian. After doing so, Thompson cheated on Khloe all over the country, of course. But the long-time reality star has celebrated her daughter's one-month birthday by sharing the first legitimate and clear picture of baby True… … and she is such a cutie pie. Don't just take our word for it, however. Meet Khloe's baby girl below! 1. This is True No, literally. This is True Thompson. Her mom shared a video of her child, from which we took this screen shot, in mid-May of 2018 and wrote as a caption: “Happy One Month True.” 2. Haven’t We Seen True Before? Kind of. Sort of. Barely. Khloe did share this selfie, which included a close-up of her face and the tiniest glimpse of her daughter’s arm. 3. The Reactions It’s safe to say we aren’t the only ones who think True is a cutie patootie, huh? The positive responses to this reveal continue to pour in. 4. True This “Baby True is going to be a month old!” Khloe wrote on her app a little while ago, giving fans the following update: “So far, she’s so incredibly sweet and patient – really not fussy at all. I can tell she’s going to be super athletic and incredibly strong! She’s very calm, peaceful and loves to cuddle with her parents.” 5. The Announcement True was born on April 11, 2018. She weighed 6 pounds and 13 ounce and her parents were described as “proud,” despite the tension that existed between them at the time. 6. The Statement Despite questions over their status, Tristan and Khloe released a joint statement shortly after becoming parent. It read: “Our little girl, True Thompson, has completely stolen our hearts and we are overwhelmed with LOVE. Such a blessing to welcome this angel into the family! Mommy and Daddy loooooove you True!” View Slideshow

Azealia Banks Explains To Cardi B Why She Chose To Bleach Her Skin

Source: Frazer Harrison / Getty In a since deleted Instagram post, Azealia Banks explained to Cardi B  why she chose to bleach her skin. Earlier, Cardi questioned how the Banks could advocate for dark skin women when the Harlem MC has admitted to bleaching her skin in the past. The two ladies have been exchanging words online since Banks called Cardi “illiterate” on the Breakfast Club last week. In response to Cardi’s comments about skin bleaching, Banks wrote a lengthy Instagram post stating, “For your information, I bleached my skin die to a severe breakout I had from a depo-provera shot.” Banks added that Cardi’s comments prove her original point. “Some dark skin women have problems with hyper-pigmentation and it can take years for our scars to fade.” ”The color of my skin has absolutely nothing to do with this greater discussion surrounding Black women’s culture and our representation in media.” ”From what I know, you have always identified as Latina. You’ve only recently began to identify as Black once you became a partner of Hip Hop and felt pressured to represent the women you so often called burnt, bald-headed roaches.” Azealia also went into detail about Cardi’s natural looks and hygiene in the IG post below. From the front desk of Azealia Banks… pic.twitter.com/OOuM2WQn1Q — The Sunken Place (@roman_minaj) May 12, 2018 Banks closed with, “I suggest you leave these types of cultural conversations alone for now. You don’t have the range.” Hit the jump to read Banks’ tweets calling Cardi an “illiterate stereotype” who could be on the Maury show.
