Samurai Ghost Photo Surfaces, Freaks Everyone Out

When is the picture of a four-year old girl standing on the edge of a hillside not just  a picture of a four-year old girl standing on the edge of a hillside? When folks wonder whether the boots of a samurai ghost are standing directly behind her! This is what’s happened ever since a Reddit user uploaded the following photo. It features a young girl standing near a beach that’s across from a samurai graveyard. And if you look behind her legs, you’ll see what appears to be a pair of boots and part of a shirt peeking out from… somewhere. “My daughter thinks the whole thing is just so funny,” Martin Springall, who snapped the image, tells ABC News. “She thinks it’s a ghost, but not a scary ghost – a nice one.” The photo was taken last July in Zushi, Japan. Springall shared the shot with a friend, who uploaded it to the “Ghosts” subreddit. “Some thought it could be the ghost of a World War II sailor,” he says, not offering up any of his own theories, but making it clear no actual person was there: “My daughter is really shy, and she wouldn’t have taken a picture if there was someone standing behind her, which I would have definitely noticed.”

Lois Lilienstein Dies: Star of Sharon, Lois and Bram’s Elephant Show Was 78

Canadian children’s performer Lois Lilienstein has passed away at the age of 78. Lilienstein was best known for her role on the long-running television series Sharon, Lois and Bram’s The Elephant Show. Her son, David Lilienstein, informed a Canadian news outlet that she passed away quietly in her home on Wednesday night. “She was just a normal everyday person that had a phenomenal sense of music inside her,” said David.  When asked how fans should commemorate her life and career, he referenced her most famous song, saying, “Turn to your family and friends and sing “Skinnamrinky Dinky Dink.” Along with Sharon Hampson and Bramwell “Bram” Morrison, Lilienstein formed the entertainment trio Sharon, Lois and Bram in Toronto in 1978. Their first album of folk-inspired children’s songs became an instant success, and they began touring the US and Canada that same year. In 1984, the group launched the the CBC variety show that would take them to a new level of fame. The series was eventually syndicated and picked up by American outlets such as Nickelodeon. Lilienstein continued to perform and tour with the trio until she decided to retire in 2000, following the death of her husband. But while she hasn’t performed in over 15 years, news of Lilienstein’s death quickly became a trending topic on Twitter, evidence of the millions who grew up, and still fondly remember, her unforgettable music.

50 Cent Calls Instagram Follower "Angry Black B-tch," Asks If She Wants to Have Sex With His Son

It’s been quite a day on 50 Cent’s Instagram account. First, the rapper ended his feud with Floyd Mayweather  by posting a photo of the two of them together and referring to Mayweather as his “brother.” Just a few hours later, Fiddy showed the world that just because he’s buried the hatchet with the Money Man, that doesn’t mean he’s not still full of seething, misdirected rage. It all started when Mr. Cent posted the below photo of his 3-year-old son with a caption reading, “My little guy is getting big so fast. I feel like I’m gonna blink and he’s gonna pull off in one of my cars.” One commenter asked about the whereabouts of 50’s “first born” (17-year-old Marquise Jackson), and the dude just lost it on her: “Why only angry black b-tches got something to say about my other son he grown,” 50 fired back. “What do you want to give him some p-ssy? Google him.” After 50 skipped his son’s high school graduation last May, the fact that he had been largely from his Marquise’s life for several years became public knowledge. Clearly, it’s still a sore subject, but that hardly justifies the 39-year-old’s outraged rant over a simple question. In the hours since, the comment thread on the above photo has become a hotbed of debate, with some fans defending 50 and others expressing their belief that he was way out of line. Fortunately, the latter opinion seems to be in the majority. View Slideshow: 17 Most Intelligent Rappers in the Game

Khloe Kardashian to Adrienne Bailon: You Have Some Nerve!

It’s safe to say that Adrienne Bailon will not be invited to the Kardashian household for Christmas this year. The former Cheetah Girls member recently went off to Latina Magazine; first saying that her previous affiliation with the Kardashians hurt her career and then slamming Rob Kardashian for cheating on her. Bailon said Rob “strategically” planned how he would sleep with other women and that she never considered forgiving him. Kim Kardashian Defends Rob, Slams Adrienne Bailon In response to Adrienne’s barbs, Kim Kardashian referred to Bailon  as a hypocrite and told her to let her beef with Rob go. And now Khloe Kardashian is also going off on her former friend. “Thought her and I were cool SMH,” Khloe wrote online this afternoon, retweeting a fan who commented: “Adrienne has a lot of nerve to talk s— about Rob when he is obviously dealing with s—.” Another follower asked whether Kim was “shading” Bailon, to which Khloe replied: “Don’t think it was a secret. For sure. Don’t kick my brother while he’s down.” Rob Kardashian, of course, has been battling weight issues and self-esteem issues for many months now. He reportedly got into a fight with members of his family and didn’t even attend Kim’s wedding to Kanye West in Italy this spring. Instead, he came home, deleted his social media messages and started again from scratch, 30 Kute Khloe Kardashian Photos 1.

Kathy Griffin on Demi Lovato: What a Douche!

Kathy Griffin and Demi Lovato won’t be going out for coffee any time soon. Asked in a Twitter chat yesterday to identify “biggest douche celebrity” she ever met, Griffin offered up a surprising response, telling the follower: “Probably [Demi] Lovato.” We can only assume she has never met John Mayer of Shia LaBeouf. Griffin didn’t go into detail over her beef with Lovato, but did add that the singer “should calm the f down bout Lady Gaga gettin barfed on.” This is a reference, of course, to GaGa having an artist vomit on her during a performance in Austin this month, a stunt Lovato took open exception to because she believes her fellow star was glorifying eating disorders. Demi suffered from just such disorders as a teenager and checked herself into rehab a couple years ago as a result.

John Edwards Trial Begins; Jury Selection Underway

The scandal that derailed John Edwards’ career, shattered his image as a devoted family man and led to his indictment is now set to play out in federal court. The former Democratic presidential candidate is fighting allegations that he violated federal campaign finance laws during his 2008 bid for the White House. Prosecutors contend he secretly obtained hundreds of thousands of dollars from two wealthy supporters to hide his affair and love child with Rielle Hunter . John Edwards Trial Begins Hunter, was a campaign videographer who gave birth to their daughter, Frances Quinn, at a time when Edwards’ wife, Elizabeth, was battling breast cancer. Elizabeth Edwards passed away in late 2010. The alleged donors were Fred Baron, a wealthy Texas lawyer who is no longer alive, and Rachel “Bunny” Mellon, a wealthy 101-year-old benefactor. They supposedly provided more than $900,000 in living expenses for Rielle Hunter, who is not expected to testify at the trial of the ex-U.S. Senator. Prosecutors argue the money should have been reported as campaign funds because it was meant to help Edwards preserve and protect his image. As Edwards’ family watched from the courtroom in Greensboro, N.C., 100 men and women were given a brief review of the jury selection process. The case seems as much made for celebrity gossip tabloids as it is for legal scholars studying the reach of federal regulations governing elections. Whether or not Edwards can win it is an entirely open question.

Jon Gosselin: Behind on Child Support?

Jon Gosselin has fallen behind on his child support payments to his ex-wife Kate Gosselin again, according to a tabloid report, to the tune of $3,557.06. That’s far less than the amount Levi Johnston is accused of owing for just one child, but it’s enough to mean legal consequences for Jon just the same. The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 reality star has eight kids he is required to support by law , and the Pennsylvania Dept. of Child Welfare is calling him out. Kate Gosselin seemed blindsided by the fact that Jon was going to go back to court for non-payment of child support after a Twitter follower alerted her. “I don’t know if he’s going to court but wouldn’t surprise me…. How do you know this stuff?!?” she wrote but quickly stopped engaging the follower: “Woah….I’m not allowed to talk about orders from the court.…” Probably smart. Since TLC canned their show , Kate has been working as a blogger for CouponCabin (dot) com while Jon has been working construction. Their contentious relationship often involves slamming each other on Twitter, but if Jon really does owe back child support, a real battle could erupt.

Andrew Garcia Leads ‘American Idol’ Twitter Followers Race

Show opens up social media outlets for top 24 contestants. By Gil Kaufman “American Idol” contestant Andrew Garcia Photo: Michael Becker / FOX It should come as little surprise that less than 24 hours after “American Idol” announced that for the first time it was allowing its semi-finalists to maintain a presence on Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, early favorites have emerged. For years, the show has put a virtual headlock on all non-“Idol”-sanctioned social media, declaring a blackout on any information or correspondence from contestants during their championship run on the show. But after the final 24 were revealed on Wednesday night, Fox announced that each of the 24 finalists would maintain multiple online presences. Though at press time none of them had actually tweeted (and it was unclear how free they would be to discuss what goes on behind the scenes at the show), by midday on Thursday, two of the early front-runners had already piled up a significant lead in terms of Twitter followers. Leading the pack was Andrew Garcia , who had already amassed more than 3,500 fans, putting him way ahead of the leader on the women’s side, Ashley Rodriguez , who had a more manageable 327 followers. The Park Rangers appear to have turned out for low-key John Park (507 followers), who snagged the #2 position among the men, way ahead of the low man on the totem pole, Jermaine Sellers at 83. Sellers just edged out virtual unknown Joe Munoz (85), a singer hardly seen during auditions. Barely breaking 100 was burly personal trainer Michael Lynche (103), while Alex Lambert landed 157 fans, teenage cutie Aaron Kelly clocked in at 129 and shirt-doffing cowboy Casey James had a surprisingly low 161 count.
