When an 8-year-old girl was selling water bottles outside of her mother’s home in San Francisco, this strange woman decided to call the cops. Why? Because the little girl didn’t have a permit. Even worse, when she realized she could become the next Twitter meme, she attempts to hide from the cameras. So my little cousin was selling water and didn't have a permit so this lady decided to call the cops on an 8 year old. #PermitPatty pic.twitter.com/SiL61pnAgl — Raj (@_ethiopiangold) June 23, 2018 So of course, Twitter is having a field day with her anyway. She’s been given the nickname #PermitPatty and the online roasts have been hilarious. Hit the flip for more.
Beyonce posted adorable photos of herself, husband Jay Z and daughter Blue Ivy at a kart racing facility on Friday, once again defying recent divorce rumors. Someone is trying much, much too hard here. We’re not sure if that would be the star, in an attempt to convince us all is well with her marriage, or tabloids wanting to convince us it’s not … but someone is. In one adorable snapshot from the go kart track, Jay Z, 44, held hands with the duo’s 2-year-old daughter as they walked around the indoor racing spot. Blue wore a white dress and accessorized with pink sandals, while Beyonce clearly took first place (as evidenced by another fun photo she shared) Is life really all fun and games for them lately, though? The power couple’s relationship behind closed doors, if you believe the tabloids, is pretty much the polar opposite of this pleasant family outing. Just yesterday, a report suggested Beyonce “is done” with Jay Z and their six-year marriage as soon as they finish their final On the Run tour dates. They also allegedly “stayed separately” while in New York and L.A. and Bey is looking for apartments solo in NYC, gearing up to leave the rapper ASAP. At this point, we still put about as much stock in those reports as we do Tina Seals ‘ lawsuit claiming she, not Bey, is Blue Ivy Carter’s birth mother. Is it possible all these photos are a facade and things are secretly crumbling behind closed doors? Sure, but there is no evidence that it actually is. Why fake it at this point if you’re just gonna divorce anyway, and why hasn’t there been one shred of proof to back up any of the divorce chatter? Just curious. Someone, please enlighten us. 30 Blue Ivy Carter, Beyonce & Jay Z Photos 1. Beyonce and Blue Ivy Carter Beyonce and Blue Ivy Carter. The singer recently shared this photo on her website.
Very well played, Downton Abbey cast. Earlier this week, an on-set snafu resulted in a plastic water bottle ending up in the background of a Season 5 promotional photo, prompting laughs and confusion on the Internet because, call us crazy, but Evian hadn’t been invented yet in early 20th century Great Britain. Now, in response to the snafu, the cast has posed for a humorous photograph that also benefits a great cause. “The cast of Downton Abbey embraced ‘water bottle-gate’ today by posing for a picture to promote the work of international charity WaterAid,” reads the Facebook caption of the above picture. “A publicity still released this week hit the headlines when a plastic water bottle was spotted in the corner of the picture,” the message added. “The official photograph of The Earl and Lady Edith was cropped and used during the launch of the new season, but it was when an un-cropped version of the image worked its way onto the internet that it sparked a global press frenzy.” The series then linked to the official website of WaterAid in order to bring attention to the need for clean water and clean toilets in poor nations around the globe. “After seeing the reaction the picture caused earlier this week, the cast and crew came up with the idea of turning some of this attention towards an issue around water that really matters,” said an ITV spokesperson. “They hope that by posing for this picture they will be able to raise awareness and amplify the work of international charity – WaterAid.” As we said… well played! Need to catch up prior to the return of this drama in early 2015? Go watch Downton Abbey online via TV Fanatic.
Photos by Jeff Kart So I spent the weekend at Lollapalooza, along with another 200,000 or so people, rocking out to headliners like Green Day, The Strokes and Lady Gaga. And I noticed something. For the most part, people were doing the right thing: Recycling their beer cans, using refillable water bottles, putting trash in its place. Now this may not seem like a revolution, but it’s worth mentioning, especially against the backdrop of the first few Lollapaloozas I attended back in the 1990s…. Read the full story on TreeHugger
