Did Kylie Jenner Jack Her New Cosmetic Collection? Just a few days ago, the 18-year-old Kylie Jenner released a new eyeshadow palette on her website which sold out in all of 1 minute. Yes, 1 minute! Now it’s great to have ‘fan luv’ as DJ Khaled would call it, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to jack ideas from the working class Since Kylie dropped revealed her new line, social media has been debating about whether or not she stole the idea from popular beauty blogger and Youtube, Shannon Harris. Over the years, Shannon has worked her way up to over 2 million loyal subscribers who brought the similarities to her attention. After catching wind of Kylie’s new palette and comparing it to the one she has been selling under her own brand, Shanaaxo, the striking similarities to Kylie’s new palette were too much to ignore. Just a coincidence or nah? Shannon didn’t seem to think so when she posted the tweet below which was ultimately retweeted over 15,000 times and favorited 24,000 times. Peep: Right. After receiving backlash by Kylie Jenner fans all over twitter, it wasn’t long before Sharon took to social media to apologize. What say you? Did Kylie get her Melania Trump on?

A lil positivity… Lunella Lafayette Named The Smartest Superhero In The Marvel Universe During San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel made an exciting announcement about the introduction of Moon Girl a.k.a. Lunella Lafayette who’s the smartest superhero in the Marvel universe.

Antonio Armstrong And Wife Dawn Killed By Their Teenage Son Extremely tragic story coming out of Houston this evening. Former NFL player and Texas A&M football star Antonio Armstrong, and his wife of over 20 years Dawn, were each shot dead in their bedroom by their own 16-year-old son, while the entire family was home. Via NYDN : Former NFL player Antonio Armstrong and his wife were fatally shot by their teenage son in the family’s Houston home early Friday, police said. Armstrong’s wife, Dawn, was pronounced dead in their bedroom after their 16-year-old son dialed 911 around 1:30 a.m., police sources told KTRK-TV. Antonio Armstrong was taken to the hospital in critical condition, but multiple local media outlets reported that he had died later in the day. Investigators who searched the southwest Houston home found a gun still smoking with a note next to it reading, “I’ve been watching you,” the TV station reported. Police arrested the 16-year-old boy. Sources close to the investigation said he was likely to be charged as an adult. All three of the couple’s children — including a 20-year-old son and a teenage daughter — were in the Palmetto St. home at the time of the shooting. All were unharmed, Houston police homicide investigator Jimmy Dodson told the Houston Chronicle. SMH. What the hell would drive their son to do something so heinous to his own parents like this?? Truly sad story. Our thoughts are with the family — particularly the surviving children of this family. So sad. KTRK/Facebook

Poor MJB! Mary J. Blige Issues Statement On Divorce Mary J. Blige is well aware that fans are reeling over the news that she and her hubby Kendu Issacs are no more, so she’s released a statement. According to the songstress this is a “very difficult, emotional time for her” and sometimes “things don’t work.” ESSENCE reports: Ms. Blige is saddened to say [that] it is true that she has filed for divorce, saying sometimes things don’t work how we hoped they would… but, there is a divine plan and a reason for everything. Mary will continue writing and working on her album, which is due out later this year along with her world tour. She thanks and appreciates her fans for their support and love through this very difficult emotional time.” That was a very politically correct response to the divorce news, what do YOU think really happened between them???
