Sevyn Streeter Sings National Anthem In “We Matter” Jersey Remember when Sevyn Streeter was barred from singing the National Anthem for the 76ers because she wore a Jersey that said “We Matter” in reference to BLM? Well, she finally got her chance to hit the hardwood and sing the anthem in the controversial jersey over the weekend. The 76ers apologized and rescheduled her performance and she was more than pleased with the outcome: “I’m really excited. I’m feeling great. I’m happy that we were able to turn an unfortunate situation into something positive. I’m singing the anthem tonight. I’m wearing my ‘We Matter’ jersey. I was just able to play with kids from the Boys & Girls Club…I feel awesome.” Let’s hear how she did: NICE! Now, was that so hard, Philly? Instagram/YouTube
Look, Madonna is a remarkably embarrassing human being, she just is. She’s also a legend, sure, but that doesn’t give her a pass. A lot of people think this is some age discrimination , like “what, Madonna is 58 years old so she can’t be sexy and have fun anymore?” And that’s absolutely not the case. No, if any person, no matter if they were 1 or 100 or any age in between, behaved the way Madonna behaves , it would be an honest-to-goodness shame, it really would. It’s just that she’s so very, very desperate for attention . Like she can’t handle the fact that perhaps her popularity isn’t what it used to be, and she has to do stunt after stunt to just get a little bit more of the spotlight. Come on, why else would she rock as many grills as she does ? And why else would she act like as hot a mess as she did last night? Yep, buckle up, friends, because we’ve got a wild and wacky Madonna story to share with you right the hell now. See, last night, Madonna hosted a charity gala for Malawi, the African nation where her 11-year-old son, David, was born. She managed to raise over $7.5 million, which is amazing, it really is. But boy, did she pull some ridiculous sh-t along the way. Because Madonna’s ex-husband, Sean Penn, was there too, right? The two got married in 1985, but they stayed together for just four years before they got divorced. There have been persistent rumors for years that he was majorly abusive to her, but she’s denied those rumors, and she’s even made it clear that she still has strong feelings for him . Back in January, they did another charity gala together, and Madonna gave a speech all about how amazing she thinks Sean is. During the speech, she got all gushy, telling him “I want to say that, Sean, I love you. From the moment that I laid eyes on you. And I still love you, just the same.” And, well, last night she took things a step further. “I’m still in love with you,” she told Sean. And then, just when you thought things couldn’t get any more romantic and/or creepy, she said that she would marry him again, right then and there — if he bid $150,000 on a piece of jewelry. And he did . We’re not sure about whether or not they’ve gotten hitched yet, but someone did have the presence of mind to play a wedding march. Sean hopped on stage, crawled between Madonna’s legs, and then handcuffed her. Why? We may never know. But, hilariously enough, Madonna did joke while Sean was handcuffing her that “For once, he’s not the one being arrested.” Oh, Madonna, you’re in love with a criminal! How sweet! Best of wishes to this former, maybe present couple, we guess. View Slideshow: 10 Controversial Photos of Madonna

Gwyneth Paltrow is featured in the latest issue of Harper’s Bazaar. A LOT of Gwyneth Paltrow, we should say. The actress strips nearly all the way down (inside of a supermarket, randomly) for the publication, showing off a very impressive physique for someone her age and talking at length about many personal issues. Considering this is the “Daring Issue,” Paltrow talks about what it means for someone who is 44 years old to be… well… daring. “My daughter [Apple, 12] is super ballsy. I always follow her lead,” Paltrow explains. “I actually don’t need to encourage her to take risks. She likes to push herself; she wants to see how far she can get. It’s really inspiring to see that in a young woman.” Back when she was around 27, Paltrow won an Oscar and got a big head. She says her father then labeled her an “asshole,” to which she took exception. But in which she now takes pride. “If you haven’t taken all of life’s incredible knocks and disappointments and used them to become a fully integrated, self-expressing person by the time you’re 40, then what can I tell you?” she says. Is that not the most Gwyneth Paltrow quote ever? Aside from the whole conscious uncoupling thing, that is? The Goop founder goes on to say she has sought to instill this same no-nonsense attitude into her kids, Apple, 12 and Moses, 10. (Sorry, but we’ll never ever get over the name Apple . Poor kid) “In my case, I’ve borne these two kids into a particularly strange circumstance,” the actress says. “They are going to have to fend off a lot and protect themselves from a lot of projections and prejudice about who they are, coming from the family that they come from.” She doesn’t want us to feel sorry for children coming from a whole lot of privilege, does she? Sure, they may face some obstacles as a result. But does Paltrow really not see how ridiculous that comment is, considering the circumstances under which other children grow up? Enough about Paltrow, though. She sucks. What about Beyonce?!? In one of the oddest friendships we can think of, these two are extremely close. Paltrow says the singer is “shy” in real life, adding: “If you met her and you didn’t know who she was or what she did, it would be inconceivable to you that she was Beyonce. “Some really famous people, even when they’re off-duty, have this energy that is sort of overpowering. She does not have that.” Concludes the controversial star: “[Beyonce] is so dialed down. She’s the sweetest mother. “You would not believe she is Beyonce Knowles. You would be like, ‘No, that was not her.’ And that’s why when I see her perform, I’m like, ‘Oh, sh-t, I forgot.'” View Slideshow: 20 Douchiest Gwyneth Paltrow Quotes in Human History
Say what you will about the Duggars, but one thing is for sure: they are very, very resilient. It might seem like a lifetime ago, but it’s been less than two years since the news broke that Josh Duggar molested five young girls when he was a teenager — a few of those girls being his little sisters. And it’s barely been a year since we learned that Josh had been paying for an Ashley Madison account , which essentially meant that he’d been paying money to look for people to cheat on his wife with. Josh went to rehab for several months to deal with his many issues, one of which, he revealed in a statement, was a porn addiction. Another fun fact about Josh: multiple porn stars have claimed that Josh paid them for sex , and that he was frighteningly rough with them. But still, even after all that, the Duggars have stood by Josh, and a whole lot of people have stood by the Duggars. Thankfully, it seems like there is a limit to what people will support, as recent reports state that TLC will cancel the show if the family tries to bring Josh on . The Duggars have been quick to defend Josh throughout his many scandals, but when rumors started swirling that they’d invite Josh on the new show, Counting On, to defend himself , the networks promptly shut the idea down. But even though Josh is such a touchy subject, TLC seems to still love them some Duggars. So it makes sense that Amy Duggar, Jim Bob’s niece, just might be getting her own show. Amy just turned 30, and as part of her birthday celebration, she got pampered at a nail salon, where she was photographed with a film crew. The word is that she might be getting her own Duggar spinoff, or at least a special. It makes sense: in September, Amy’s husband, Dillon King, said that they were working on a secret project. “Amy and I are sorry we haven’t posted in a while,” he wrote on Facebook. “We have been very busy the last few months. We have a surprise for everyone, we have been working on some stuff and the outcome I think will be amazing.” Could the surprise be a new show? It certainly looks like it. Really, if TLC has to have another Duggar show, this would be the best way to do it. Amy is a little less controversial than the rest of her family, and she doesn’t live by their very strict rules about relationships. She was the only Duggar to suggest that perhaps Josh’s indiscretions were a little more serious than he was willing to admit. What we’re saying is that TLC has had worse ideas. Way, way worse ideas .

Megyn Kelly tried, and failed to keep a straight face while discussing Donald Trump's Wednesday town hall in Daytona Beach, Florida. The Fox News anchor was a target last August when Trump disliked her questions, and after insinuated that she was probably on her period (oh yes, and he called her a “bimbo” on Twitter). Though they buried the hatchet in May, but the Republican nominee brought it up again on Wednesday night. “I meant her nose or her ears or her mouth,” Trump said to a roaring crowd. “But these people are perverted and they think it was another location. Unbelievable. I cut it short ― because I was talking about either taxes or economic development, so I said, ‘or wherever.’ And I wanted to get back on the subject. I should have finished it out, I would have been much better. So they lied.” When the camera cut back to Kelly, she was visibly embarrassed that the issue was brought up at all. “What is he doing? Relitigating every controversy from the primary season?” Kelly said. Another controversial issue Trump rehashed was the time he made fun of New York Times reporter Serege Kovaleski. Kovaleski suffers from arthrogryposis, which limits the functioning of his joints. “I won’t make the motions because if I do, they’ll say something, you know,” Trump said, referring to his mimicking Kovaleski's disability. But wait! Trump is very good to the disabled! “Nobody’s better to people with disabilities than me. I spend millions and millions of dollars on buildings taking care of people with disabilities,” he claimed. In the video, Kelly – who had two guests on the segment, one of whom is a Trump supporter – mentioned that federal law requires buildings to be wheelchair accessible. “But they’re very expensive in his buildings, Megyn, let me tell you,” the Trump supporter joked. Watch the segment to see why Kelly couldn't contain herself.
