Farrah Abraham: Daughter Sophia KICKED OFF Snapchat!

Despite her mother’s best efforts, Sophia Abraham is occasionally guided in the right direction. Of course, this usually only happens after a third party intervenes or there’s such a massive public outcry that Farrah has no choice but to do the right thing. This time it was a combination of the two as Teen Mom fans and the admins at Snapchat simultaneously rose up and shouted, “Wtf are you doing?” at Farrah. You see, Farrah recently made the controversial decision to sign her daughter up for a Snapchat account . That would be fine, of course, were it not for the fact that little Sophia is only 7 years old. Given that the social media app originally took off in large part due to the fact that it allowed users to safely send nude photos, you can see why 7-year-olds having their own accounts might not be the best idea. Sure enough, the decision blew up in Farrah’s face almost immediately. Shortly after news of her account became public, Sophia posted a video in which she reportedly said: “Give me text, I’m coming for you … Give me more texts.” Yes, you’re right to feel uncomfortable right now. Apparently the plea worked, because Sophia later posted a video in which she said: View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham Parenting Fails: A Brief History of WTF?! “Excuse me, you guys are texting me so much could you please stop. Everyone stop texting me. I have to go to bed.” Thankfully, Farrah either came to her senses or the fine folks at Snapchat did the parenting for her, because Sophia’s account is no longer active. Sadly, this is far from the first time that Farrah has encouraged wildly inappropriate behavior from her daughter. The most famous example, of course, being Sophia’s modeling career , but there are countless other cases. Remember the time Farrah involved Sophia in her feud with Nicki Minaj ? If you managed to block that out, congratulations. It’ll probably take Sophia years of therapy to accomplish that.

It Will Take 228 Years For Black Wealth To Match That Of Whites

Ever take a look at the Forbes 400 annual listing of Americans with more than $1.7 billion in holdings–there are only two Blacks listed. Even though we keep celebrating the fact that African Americans’ buying power reached $1.1 trillion in 2015, Black wealth still lags woefully behind that of white Americans. Due to a lack a wealth building in the Black community–we tend to spend our money outside the community and don’t save or invest as much–it will take Blacks in America hundreds of years to just to catch up to white wealth. Specifically, it will take a whopping 228 years to close the wealth gap between Blacks and whites in America. This, according to a just released report from the Corporation for Economic Development and the Institute for Policy Studies. Latino families will fair a lot better–it will take them 84 years to close the gap… [ MadameNoire ] This Is The Worst State For Black Americans If you had any plans of moving to Wisconsin, you might want to rethink that. Turns out Wisconsin is the worst state for Black Americans. There are a number of factors making the Badger State a bad place for Blacks, including the fact that is has the biggest wealth gap between Blacks and whites. Blacks in the state have lower median annual incomes, higher unemployment, and lower college graduation rates, according to a new report by financial news and opinion website 24/7 Wall St. The report listed all 50 states on metrics of Black and white inequality. And Wisconsin, which topped the list, was not the only Midwest state that ranked high. Minnesota came in as the second worst state for Blacks, Illinois ranked no. 5, and Iowa ranked the 10th worst state for Blacks… [ MadameNoire ] Tim Westwood Unearths 52 Minute Wu-Tang Clan Freestyle From 1997 Tim Westwood dug deep into his archives and pulled out a vintage freestyle session from members of the Wu-Tang Clan.

Battle of the Babes: Evan Rachel Wood vs. Amber Heard

While Amber Heard and Evan Rachel Wood might seem like a random pairing at first for Battle of the Babes, I see a lot of similarities between the two, starting with the fact that they’re both feisty, seductive bombshells that I just can’t get enough of. Both vixens have blue eyes, lean, tallish bods (Wood is 5′ 6″ and Heard is 5′ 8″), 3.9 ratings on Mr. Skin, and definitely have their wild sides!… read more

Eternal Victim Taylor Swift Considering Filing Police Charges Against Kim And Kanye For Proving She’s A Liar With Secret Recording

Taylor Swift Considers Criminal Charges Against Kanye And Kim Taylor Swift is once again riding the wave of being Kanye West’s “innocent little victim,” this time in hopes of getting the rapper and his wife each charged with a crime to corroborate her narrative. Of course, Taylor is now horrified that everyone knows that she knew all about Kanye West’s lyrics about her in “Famous” and was so flattered by it that she called it a ‘compliment…’ before flipping the script after the fact and pretending that Kanye used it to tear her down and take away from her accomplishments, or something. So naturally, she’s looking to shift the focus away from the lie she kept up for six months and onto the fact that KimYe committed a “crime” by recording and eventually exposing her… Via TMZ : Taylor Swift is thinking about filing a crime report against Kanye West for illegally recording their phone conversation, and against Kim Kardashian for publicly releasing the audio … TMZ has learned. Sources familiar with the situation tell us Taylor is undecided and is trying to think through the consequences of filing a police report. TMZ broke the story … when Taylor’s team found out about the recording, her lawyer fired off a letter to Kanye’s attorney, threatening legal action and notifying him the recording was a criminal violation … punishable as a felony. We’re told Kanye made the recording in the L.A. area — and in California, a party to a phone conversation cannot record it unless all parties agree. Taylor had no idea she was being recorded. Sadly, if that’s the law she may have a case. But even if she’s able to get some charges to stick…it won’t keep any of us from knowing the truth and seeing her for what she is. So we guess she has some things to think about if this is all about maintaining her damsel image… Splash/WENN

Martin Shkreli Might Be Going to Jail, Loves Pokemon Go

If you spend any time at all on social media, you’re likely familiar with both Martin Shkreli and Pokemon Go. The two out-of-left-field phenomena have little in common other than the fact that they’ve both done a surprising amount of damage and the Internet can’t seem to get enough of them. Pokemon Go has resulted in a shocking number of injuries and existential crises , as well as a never-ending stream of frustrated social media users who don’t understand why their adult co-workers are engaging in serious arguments about Squirtles and Jiggly Puffs. Shkreli has caused a similar uproar, but for a much more serious reason. During his time as CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals the so-called “Pharma Bro” jacked up the price on a potentially life-saving medication . He also started a random feud with Ghostface Killah , despite the fact that most of us have been cautioned from a young age that the Wu Tang Clan ain’t nothin’ to f–k with. Anyway, you’re probably wondering what Pikachu and the living incarnation of Millennial privilege could possibly have in common. Well, it seems that like many others, Shkreli is a big, big Pokemon Go fanatic. Unlike most, however, he might soon find it difficult to play the game thanks to a looming prison sentence. Back in December, Shkreli was arrested on securities fraud charges after investigators alleged that he used stock from Turing to pay off debt from a hedge fund that he’d previously run into the ground.  At an arraignment in Brooklyn yesterday, Shkreli threw his co-defendant under the bus by requesting a separate trial. But the great part of this story is that a New York Daily News reporter claims that on his way out of the courtroom, Shkreli was heard to remark to his lawyer: “Can I go play Pokemon go now?” Yes, Shkreli has Charizards and Wartortles on the brain even as his future freedom hangs in the balance. Fortunately, he’s not due back in court til June of 2017, so he’ll have plenty of time to catch ’em all before he’s ensnared himself. View Slideshow: 9 Idiots Who Got Injured Playing Pokemon Go

Gwyneth Paltrow: People Hate Me More Than CHRIS BROWN?!

Maybe it’s the straight-faced recommendation that you purchase a $15,000 vibrator . Maybe it’s her contribution of the term ” conscious uncoupling ” to the Dictionary of New Age-y Hollywood Bullsh-t . Or maybe it’s just her smug insistence that she’s a self-made woman who cobbled a career together with no help from anyone – even though her father was a high-powered producer, her mother is a famous actress, and her godfather is Steven freakin’ Spielberg. Whatever the reason, people really, really, really don’t like Gwyneth Paltrow. To us, that’s about as mysterious as the fact that people prefer chocolate over kale chips,  but apparently the Goopster herself is shocked – shocked ! – that the average American wouldn’t spit if she were on fire. Asked about the fact that she took the number one spot in a 2013 Star magazine “most hated celebrities” poll, Gwinnie griped that she was just being “authentic self” and totes grew up super poor, you guys. You almost have to admire her for non-ironically demonstrating the privileged lack of self-awareness that makes her so unlikable while expressing her confusion about why she’s so universally despised. This interview is like a performance art piece: “First of all I was like, ‘I’m the most hated celebrity?’ More than, like, Chris Brown? What did I do?” sayeth the mother of Apple, Moses and Hadron Collider. (We may have made that last one up.) “All I can do is be my authentic self, but I think there are things about me that make people draw conclusions. For example, there is the perception that I grew up very wealthy and that I was given, you know, that I was sort of raised with a silver spoon in my mouth, which inspires a lot of resentment.” We don’t even know what to say, so we’ll let this Kim Kardashian GIF do the talking: Seriously, though, it’s hilarious that Gwyneth blames the public’s perception of her on the fact that the plebes mistakenly believe she grew up with a Rolls Royce in her driveway, when really it was just four BMWs. If she just once dropped the BS and said, “Yeah, I grew up with privileges most people only dream about; I’m crazy pretentious at times, and I cheated on the food stamp challenge ,” maybe people wouldn’t rather spend a weekend locked in a closet with Kanye and a coked-up Charlie Sheen than sit through one of her movies. Come to think of it, does she still make movies?  View Slideshow: 20 Douchiest Gwyneth Paltrow Quotes in Human History

Jenelle Evans Addresses Pregnancy Rumors With Bikini Pic!

When someone mentions Jenelle Evans, top-notch parenting probably isn’t the first thing to pop into your mind. In fact, it sometimes seems that in Jenelle’s book quantity is more important than quality when it comes to raising kids. Despite the fact that her mother is the legal guardian of her eldest son, Jace, Jenelle wasted no time having a second child with her then-boyfriend, Nathan Griffith. Little Kaiser turned 2 yesterday, and Evans and Griffith are currently in the throes of an ugly custody battle . Despite the fact that she’s currently fighting two custody battles at once (as she proudly reminds us on Twitter), there’s been talk of Ms. Evans expanding her family even more. Yes, rumors that Jenelle is pregnant with her third child have been circulating on social media for months. Jenelle has repeatedly denied the reports, and today she decided to prove the tabloids and twitterers wrong with a bikini pic and a healthy dose of sarcasm: We’ve seen Jenelle in a bikini many, many times before, but this time she’s out to prove a point , dammit! Not only did she Snapchat the above pic (with caption, “I’m soooooo pregnant!” in case anyone missed the point), her boyfriend David Eason posted it on Instagram with the following not-at-all-written-by-Jenelle comment: “More like soooooo sexy! Haha im glad everyone thinks they know you better than you know yourself!” Sure, we guess this is one way to deny pregnancy rumors. Although we can’t help but think this is more about Jenelle proving that her beach body is on point after being called a fat heroin addict on national TV by her ex. We suppose anyone would need a self-esteem boost after that. View Slideshow: 13 Shocking Jenelle Evans Facts Even We Didn’t Know!
