Kim Kardashian took to Twitter today, stepping into the most contentious rivalry on the planet by posting messages about Israel and Palestine. Because everyone has been waiting for her to weigh in, right? Perhaps Kim Kardashian should stick to posing for bikini photos on Twitter. “Praying for everyone in Israel,” Kardashian wrote of the violent ongoing conflict, later adding: “Praying for everyone in Palestine and across the world!” As you might expect, the reality star received major flak for stepping into this world, eventually issuing the following statement in response to major outrage across the Internet: “I want to own up to and explain that earlier today I sent out two tweets about saying prayers for the people in Palestine and Israel and after hearing from my followers, I decided to take down the tweets because I realized that some people were offended and hurt by what I said, and for that I apologize. “I should have pointed out my intentions behind these tweets when I posted them. The fact is that regardless of religion and political beliefs, there are countless innocent people involved who didnt choose this, and I pray for all of them and also for a resolution. I also pray for all the other people around the world who are caught in similar crossfires.” What do you think, readers? Should Kim have apologized? Should she learn the shut the heck up? Or is this more symbolic of the overall social media culture where everyone feels a need to chime on absolutely everything?
Chicago Bears star Brandon Marshall tweeted a photo of himself in the locker room this week … unaware, apparently, that a teammate was naked behind him. Marshall had just received a package from the University of Central Florida, his alma mater, and proudly posted a photo of himself in shirt the school sent. Just one problem … The inadvertent full-moon photobomb received wide distribution on the Internet, and Marshall quickly realized his mistake, deleting the photo and tweeting: “Sorry about my guy in the back getting dressed in that photo.” Apology amusingly accepted, Brandon.

Kristen Stewart sat down with Conan O’Brien Wednesday night and delivered one of the all-time endearingly awkward Kristen Stewart gaffes. On her recent decision to quit smoking, she said, “I was a bit of a faker; I was a circumstantial smoker. I just feel like I wasn’t addicted to nicotine.” Kristen Stewart on Conan I just wanted something… in my mouth,” she said, following a momentary hesitation and the realization of what was about to come out of it. “There you go. I had to do it, sorry,” he told the cheering crowd. “This just reminded me of the Sarah Silverman show last week,” Conan responded. “Why did I, why did I just do that?” Kristen lamented. “I’m glad for the Internet that you did do that,” Conan added. “Yeah, me too,” Stewart replied. “I love the Internet, it’s my favorite thing.” With videos like this, it’s totally THG’s too girl. Give Kristen, whose relationship tumult has been well documented, and who recently lashed out at a reporter over Internet rumors, credit for being a good sport. The final chapter of the Twilight Saga arrives at midnight tonight. For the lowdown on whether you should go get in line, read our Breaking Dawn Part 2 review !

America is rapidly approaching the so-called Fiscal Cliff. Maybe you heard. Sign the secession petitions , because this is going to be an epic disaster. Or is it? That, obviously, depends on the outcome … and who you ask. The so-called “Fiscal Cliff” comes on January 1, when several tax cuts expire, and severe cuts to government spending are automatically triggered. It’s also been called “taxmageddon,” with the average American family set to see their taxes increase $3,700 in 2013 unless a new budget deal is stuck. The sticking point to solve the stand-off is what President Barack Obama calls a “balanced approach” of spending cuts and increased revenues. The president campaigned on the pledge to allow the tax rates for the rich to rise, while keeping middle class tax rates where they are currently. Obviously, Obama claims the 2012 election results are proof that the public agrees with him. Just as obviously, plenty of Republicans disagree. The GOP has called for the extension of all Bush-era tax cuts, along with massive spending cuts, in order to reduce the federal budget deficit. Will there be a “grand bargain” in which the two camps essentially split the difference and move on? Or would either side actually prefer the Cliff? The two sides have a few more days to make their cases to the public before Congressional leaders are called to the White House on Friday. That’s when negotiations start in earnest and we learn if the 2012 election made a difference in relations between the two parties. Don’t bet on it. Hopefully, clearer heads will prevail in the end and we will avoid the consequences that economists say could plunge the U.S. back into recession. Then again, this is D.C. How many clear heads even exist there?
