Kevin Hart started the Hurricane Harvey Relief Challenge to encourage celebrities like Nicki Minaj, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, and The Chainsmokers to donate to the Red Cross. Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, and Kim Kardashian have also pledged to help Houston.
Splash News WELP… Cuban Kim Kardashian Arrested An Instagram model with over 5 million followers was recently popped for a DUI. Katherine Ferreira a.k.a. “The Cuban Kim Kardashian” was arrested in Miami for alleged DUI and fleeing police after leaving a 24-hour strip club, according to Splash News. Ferreira, 25, was partying at Club E11even and left at 8.30am Sunday in her Range Rover before evading cops who attempted to pull her over for running a stop sign. A second officer then pulled her over a second time and issued a field sobriety test that she failed after blowing .198 and .197, over twice the legal limit. Footage of her sobriety test has since surfaced. ¡Ay, Dios Mío! Have YOU heard of the “Cuban Kim Kardashian” @KathyzWordl? More of her on the flip.

Taylor Swift does not do subtlety. Three days after releasing her much-lampooned new single , “Look What You Made Me Do,” the global superstar unveiled her music video for the track early on at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards. And the footage took aim at the paparazzi, at Kim Kardashian and Kanye West… and even at herself. The video opened with a gravestone that reads “Here Lies Taylor Swift’s Reputation.” The last word there, of course, is the name of Swift’s upcoming studio album , which drops on November 10. It’s also a reference to the way Swift has seen her name dragged through the mud for just over a year now, ever since Kim and Kanye exposed her as somewhat of a phony last summer. (In July of 2016, Kardashian played a phone call to the world in which Swift gave her husband permission to include a negative lyric about Taylor in his song “Famous,” despite Swift having previously claimed foul when the track went viral.) Swift then dances around a cemetery while dressed like a zombie, prior to miming the shooting of a gun in a bathtub, draped in diamond. From there, we see Taylor sitting on a throne, drinking tea (clearly trolling the trolls) and ignoring the snakes slithering all around her. (Reminder: Kardashian referred to Swift as a snake after igniting their aforementioned feud last year.) Cut to Swift in a car accident, the paparazzi snapping photos all around here as she sort of writhes in pain… yet stares at a Grammy Award while doing so. (Translation: Oh yeah? You think my career is a trainwreck and you want to throw a Taylor Swift is over party ? I’ll just be over here, admiring my Grammys… ) Later on, Swift swings on a swing in a giant birdcage… joins some kind of motorcycle gang… swings a baseball bat in anger (undoubtedly creating more Beyhive backlash )… dons a dominatrix outfit… and dances around with guys in I Heart TS shirts. (During July Fourth weekend in 2016, Swift and then-boyfriend Tom Hiddleston received tons of crap when the latter was seen wearing a shirt with this same message on it.) But the end of the video is when Swift truly comes clean. It’s where she lets EVERYthing out. Various versions of the singer stand in front of a private jet with the word “REPUTATION” on it and engage in a conversation. “Stop acting like you are all nice, you are so fake,” one Taylor says to another Taylor, referencing the biggest criticism most haters have of Swift. We then see Swift very clearly mocking Kardashian as she sends out the infamous Snapchat video from last summer, with Swift uttering the line she wrote on Instagram in response to the scandal last year. I’d very much like to be excluded from this narrative. On the whole, there’s A LOT to unpack here. Is Swift copying Beyonce at certain parts? Is she being too direct in responding to critics? Is she playing the annoying victim once again? Or is this prime and perfect Taylor Swift in all her vindictive glory? Watch the full video below and then respond! Taylor Swift – “Look at What You Made Me Do” (Video)
In the three years since her last studio album was released to record-breaking sales and rapturous reviews, Taylor Swift has endured two high profile breakups and a string of increasingly ugly celebrity feuds. For the past several months, she’s kept a low profile, spacing out her social media posts and refusing to acknowledge the petty shade thrown by her detractors. When we first learned that Taylor had new music on the way – and that she planned to address her haters in song form – the anticipation from fans couldn’t have been much higher. Unfortunately, while the single released last night delivered on the expected drama, it also met with mostly negative reactions from both actual music critics and the self-appointed variety who love to sound off on Twitter. Taylor has become an easy target over the past year, and we all know how much the angry social media hordes love to dogpile celebs struggling with public image crises, but in this case, the attackers have a point. Not only is “Look What You Made Me Do” lazy and uninspired (We wish we were joking when we say portions of the melody were lifted from Right Said Fred’s “I’m Too Sexy” .), it sends a troubling message about the importance of staying angry and settling old scores at any cost. With lyrics like “I got mine, but you’ll all get yours” sounding like they were ripped from the manifesto of a disgruntled postal worker with an NRA membership, the song is an impassioned ode to the power of poisonous grudges. “I got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined,” Taylor sing-threatens at one point, giving us a taste of what Arya Stark would sound like if she developed a taste for awkward rhyme schemes. Sadly, the whole single is like this, and Taylor seems painfully unaware that her edgy new image feels as forced and unnatural as that British accent Madonna rocked for a while. Naturally, the lines that have garnered the most attention are the ones that seem to be directed at specific rivals. Taylor has beefed with Katy Perry , Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Diplo, Calvin Harris, and many others in the years since 1989 marked what might be looked back on as the high point of her career. Her forthcoming album will likely address all of those feuds, indirectly or otherwise, but fans who have painstakingly unpacked the lyrics believe that “Look What You Made Me Do” is aimed primarily at Kanye. At one point, Taylor sings, “I don’t like your tilted stage,” which could be a play on un-level playing field imagery … or a very specific reference to the lopsided floating platform West performed on during his most recent tour. Many have pointed out that Taylor’s album hits stores on the tenth anniversary of the death of Kanye’s mother. In all likelihood, that’s nothing more an unfortunate coincidence. Fortunately for Taylor, it’s not like Kanye’s the type of egomaniac who thinks everything is about him. J/k, he’s probably in the studio penning a diss verse over the beat of Tupac’s “Hit ‘Em Up” at this very moment. But the biggest problems with “Look What You Made Me Do” have less to do with the mental gymnastics Taylor performs in order to position herself as the eternal victim, and more to do with the structural problems of the song itself. It’s a slapdash effort that Swift would’ve been wise to pawn off on a lesser-known artist, as it’s simply a poor fit for her. The song’s most embarrassing moments are saved for its final seconds, when, after crooning, “I don’t trust nobody and nobody trusts me” several times, Taylor ratchets up the goth-y angst with a cringe-worthy spoken word snippet: “I’m sorry, but the old Taylor can’t come to the phone right now,” the singer breathlessly murmurs. “Why? Oh, because she’s dead.” Hopefully the new Taylor has access to a Ouija board, because she desperately needs to recruit her old self as a writing partner.

Source: ChinaFotoPress / Getty Taylor Swift ‘s new album Reputation hasn’t even come out yet and already T Swift has people in an uproar for multiple reasons. Here’s the breakdown: First, with the release of her new single “Look What You Made Me Do,” Taylor seems to be taking shots at Kanye West . She sings lines like, “I don’t like your little games/ Don’t like your tilted stage/ The role you made me play: of the fool/ No, I don’t like you.” Then, she later sings, “The world moves on / Another day another drama, drama / But not for me, Not for me / All I think about is karma.” Taylor and Kanye have had a long history of beef starting with when he interrupted her acceptance speech at the VMAs in 2009. When it was assumed her new lines were about Yeezy, the Internet had something to say. Some thought she bodied the rapper and his family. I feel so bad for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Taylor Swift just ended them. —
