Source: Jacopo Raule / Getty Zazie Beetz Speaks On Her “Cat Wash Routine” In Lieu Of Showers If you’ve ever been caught in the middle of a huge crowd at a concert or any other event, you’ve probably never thought to yourself, “these people 3 inches away from me definitely shower too much.” Despite that, Atlanta and Joker star Zazie Beetz thinks that Americans shower too much–which is a routine she admittedly doesn’t subscribe to. In a recent interview with Into The Gloss , the actress gives some insight into why she isn’t a fan of hopping into the shower everyday like the rest of us. “I actually think Americans shower too much. I like a cat wash—I do my face, my armpits, and my… intimates. I’ll use cocoa butter to moisturize. Nostalgic and functional—and it smells wonderful. Sometimes I use Sabon’s body scrub, but most of the time I just make my own with brown sugar and an oil, or brown sugar and honey. That’s quick and easy. I don’t use any perfumes… they’re so expensive. For years, I have been saying that I want a scent, because I love when you smell somebody and think, ‘Ah, you smell like you.’ But I kind of do have a scent—it’s just from the products I use, and not from perfume.” The German-born entertainer also says that she recently decided to transition into a skincare routine using only natural products. Beetz says that the recent environmental crisis inspired her to switch to a beauty regimen that was more sustainable–but she’ll always keep a container of Palmer’s cocoa butter on deck. Zazie also spoke on her daily workout regimen and how it changes depending on what role she’s playing at the time: “When I was Domino in Deadpool , I was on this really intense workout regimen. In the morning I would do two hours of fight training, which was essentially mixed martial arts plus stunt work. Then, in the afternoon, I would do two hours of weightlifting. That was five days a week, four hours a day, for months. I didn’t have much of a workout routine before, and such an abrupt shift was traumatic for my body.” She didn’t say whether or not her showering increased when she was working out for four hours a day, but we can only hope there was more than a “cat wash” happening after those intense sessions. Either way, a lot of the actress’ fans didn’t seem to love the news that she’s not getting clean very often and the idea that Americans “shower too much” isn’t exactly taking off. Here are some reactions to the news that Zazie isn’t a huge fan of showers: Zazie Beetz didn't have to tell us that she doesn't shower often but here we are — Ahmed/Tinashe plz notice me/Saint Jhn Fan (@big_business_) August 31, 2019 It has been brought to my attention that Zazie Beetz doesn't shower…..currently re-evaluating my taste in women — Big Simpin’ II: Revenge of the Simp (@nnniess22) August 31, 2019

Source: Jordan Lye / Getty Woman Is Suing After Having To Deliver Her Own Baby In A Jail Cell According to CBS Denver , a woman who gave birth alone in her jail cell is suing after deputies and nurses reportedly ignored her cries for help during her five hours of labor. Surveillance video shows Diana Sanchez lying down on her cell bed, crying out in pain before she pulls off her pants and delivers a baby. In a federal lawsuit, Sanchez states that she first alerted jail staff that she was experiencing contractions at 5:00 a.m. The lawsuit also says that Sanchez spoke with Denver deputies and Denver Health nurses over eight times that morning, informing them every time that she was experiencing contractions. Three hours later Sanchez’s water broke, at which point she again attempted to alert staff. An absorbent pad is slid under her door for her to put on her bed about 45 minutes before she gave birth. After she gives birth, a nurse walks in and picks up the baby. The federal lawsuit says that jail officials “cruelly chose convenience over compassion” by not calling for an ambulance after Sanchez’s water broke and she was bleeding.

( Terms and conditions ). “I just want to say I’m sorry for what I did,” Kennard told the judge during the hearing. “I take responsibility for what I did in the past. I want the opportunity to get it right.” According to reports from AL.com , the his insanely harsh sentence was triggered by the Habitual Felony Offender Act, aka the “three strikes law.” Kennard had previously been charged with burglary and grand larceny in connection to a gas station break-in, which means that his combined convictions made him eligible to receive a life sentence under the controversial act. I just witnessed the most extraordinary moment.

She let the court know that he hadn’t received a behavior citation in 11 years or a prison disciplinary in 14 years. “When I first went to visit [Kennard], the guard was chatting with me,” Crowder to ABC News , “and when he saw who I was visiting, he said, ‘That’s one that you could let him out and he wouldn’t cause any more trouble.’” She went on to reassure the judge that Kennard would do well in the outside world, as he has maintained relationships with his friends and family.

Watching them both on screen, you might have noticed that the chemistry between the two was palpable. And it doesn’t hurt that both of them are physically beautiful.

As much as I would like for this story to be true, I’m not entirely convinced. This could easily be a scene from “grown-ish,” although the source told The Neighborhood Talk that there were no cameras around. I think it would be hard to hide those. I can’t see Bailey starting to share these type of details about her personal life. So we’ll just have to keep our ears and eyes open to see what becomes of this potential boo-ship.

Their public appearance comes just a week after Jeannie told her co-hosts on “The Real” that the two weren’t an item. “Jeezy and I hang out,” she said. “He’s very special to me, so we don’t really have a label to define what it is we’re doing. We’re just having a good time together.” She also added that she was “multi-dating,” and promised her fans that when she is in a serious relationship, she would spill all the tea on the table. “ Real fam you know I always keep it a little too real at this table. I promise you that when there is that one special boo, you will be the first to know from me,” she said. Rumors that the two were romantically linked spread back in January when Malika Haqq shared a photo of them together.
