Hillary Clinton at the DNC: What Did She Say?

Hillary Clinton has accepted the nomination for President of the United States. This was the most expected part of the speech she delivered on Thursday night at the Democratic National Convention. What else did she say about America and about her opponent, Donald Trump. Scroll down for the highlights: 1. Bill of Goods On Tuesday night, I was so happy to see that my explainer in chief is still on the job. 2. Kaine is Able For those of you out there who are just getting to know Tim Kaine, you will soon understand why the people of Virginia keep promoting him from city council to mayor, to governor and now senator and he will make our whole country proud as our next vice president. 3. Feeling the Bern Bernie, your campaign inspired millions of Americans, particularly the young people who do their hearts and souls into our primary. You put economic and social justice issues brought and center where they belong. 4. Taking Aim at Trump He wants to divide us from the rest of the world and from each other. He is betting that the perils of today’s world will blind us to its unlimited promise. He is taken the Republican party a long way from mourning in America to midnight in America. He wants us to fear the future and fear each other. 5. It Takes a Village Freedom and equality justice and opportunity — we should be so proud those words are associated with us …When people here those words they hear America, so don’t let anyone tell you our country is weak, we’re not. … And most of all, don’t believe anyone who says ‘I alone can fix it.’ 6. Who Am I? I’ve been your first lady, I’ve served eight years as a senator for the great state of New York and then I represented all of you as secretary of state, but my job titles only tell you what I’ve done, they don’t tell you why. The truth is through all these years … the service part has always come easier to me than the public part … I get it that some people just don’t know what to make of me. View Slideshow

Chloe Grace Moretz Sets Aside Khloe Kardashian Feud to Endorse Hillary Clinton

Last night, Hillary Clinton accepted the Democrat’s nomination and became the first female major-party candidate in United States history. It was a historic moment, and some of Hollywood’s biggest stars were on hand to celebrate. Bradley Cooper was at the DNC to support Clinton and prove once and for all that he is not actually an American sniper. View Slideshow: Bradley Cooper Attends DNC, Causes Total Republican Meltdown Katy Perry sang at the convention and sadly, she didn’t take advantage of the opportunity to throw shade at Taylor Swift. Katy was an apt choice, as like Clinton, she has experience butting heads with a privileged blonde who weirdly appeals to Southerners. Speaking of feuds, Chloe Grace Moretz – who, over the past week, has become wrapped up in an increasingly ugly war with Khloe Kardashian  – took time to encourage young people to register to vote. The 19-year-old actress shared the story of her own registration process and offered some inspiring words on what it meant: Chloe Grace Moretz at the DNC “It took just a minute,” she said, “but it gave me the power of a lifetime, the power to make my voice heard and to shape the future of our country.” “So just imagine, imagine what can happen if we all make our voices heard this November at the ballot box,” the Kick-Ass star said. “We can elect a president who will fight to give every American a chance to graduate from college debt-free. We can elect a president who will fight for equal pay for equal work.” Inspiring stuff that’s reminiscent of Kendall Jenner’s “get out the vote” campaign. All-in-all, it must have been a confusing night for the Kardashian-Jenner clan. A candidate that Kim endorsed accepted the nomination; a singer they’re friends with gave the performance, but someone that Khloe’s been harassing on Twitter gave one of the night’s most talked-about speeches. This election is tearing the family apart, and someone needs to make the Kardashians great again! Just kidding, they were never great. View Slideshow: Hillary Clinton at the DNC: What Did She Say?

Ed Hartwell: THIS is Why I Dumped Keshia Knight Pulliam

It is most definitely all over between Ed Hartwell and Keshia Knight Pulliam. That much is not up for debate. But why prompted the couple to split after just seven months of marriage (and one pregnancy)? That’s a question to which both sides likely have a different answer. Earlier this week, Hartwell didn’t merely file for divorce from The Cosby Show alum; he also demanded in legal documents that Pulliam take a paternity test . The answer why would appear to be obvious: Hartwell must suspect his wife of cheating on him, right? Insiders later came out and said Pulliam was confident in her fidelity . She was angry to be asked to take the paternity test, but confident she would pass it. A couple days after news of her impending split broke, Pulliam then gave an interview in which she claimed Hartwell had cheated on her. In other words: the entire thing is a huge mess. Now, Hartwell has spoken out for the first time and told his side of the story to The New York Post. The former linebacker says his marriage was torn apart by jealousy, disagreements about when to start a family and suspicions about infidelity … on both sides. Explained Hartwell to Page Six of one significant way in which the two disagred: “She wanted a baby really fast, and what I was trying to explain to her was that – from my beliefs, from seeing other successful people – that when you first get married, especially since we didn’t have a long courtship, that we should actually focus on each other and not just have a baby. “That’s something she really did want to do.” The couple got married on January 1 after a mere four months of marriage. Hartwell says they stopped having sex once Pulliam got pregnant and that she should not have been surprised by his divorce filing. “I said, ‘I think we probably messed up. I think we moved too fast,’” he told the newspaper. ‘”Our lives and wants are headed two different directions.’” Hartwell says he confessed to Pulliam that his ex-wife had “lost a baby” and that he realized he still cared deeply about her. This admission made the former Cosby Show star so hurt and angry that she basically disappeared from his life. Hartwell added that Pulliam fled to visit a spiritualist and “started going out with friends all the time and not telling me when she was coming home or sometimes not coming home at all.” This is why he has questions about the paternity of her child. View Slideshow: The Cosby Show Cast: Where Are They Now?!? “I can’t say she’s been unfaithful,” he says. “I can say she’s stayed out, she’s not came home, she’s went out-of-town … for three days, I don’t know what’s going on. I can say that. “I can’t say she was unfaithful. I can say she wanted to get in vitro, I can say she wanted to do some things to make sure she got pregnant. I just want to make sure it is mine.” Hartwell denies having cheated on Pulliam, but makes it sound like the baby issue tore the couple apart. “She wants what she wants, I want what I want: she wants a baby, I want to find love and happiness. “But at the end of the day, I think if things don’t add up, I think it’s fair for me, if things don’t add up, to want a test.”

Amber Rose: Siding With Kimye in Taylor Swift Feud?!

At this point, you’re probably well aware of the feud between Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift  and the many ways that it’s escalated over the course of the past week. Things heated up when Kim basically called Taylor out as a liar by posting proof that Kanye West got her approval on some potentially offensive lyrics before recording his song “Famous.” Celebrities took sides, and predictably, the many people that Taylor has shaded over the years sided with Kim and Kanye . But it wasn’t just A-listers who entered the fray. Even people who are only famous because they date and feud with famous people wanted in on the action. Enter Amber Rose, who these days can be found doing her best Wendy Williams impression in the most desolate wastelands of basic cable. Amber Rose on Kanye West v Taylor Swift Feud To the surprise of many Amber has been defending Kanye on the grounds that – he feels bad after does stupid things? We’re not really following her reasoning in the above clip (Especially since this is a guy who said he needed 30 showers after sleeping with her.), but at least she ends with a reference to Kanye liking fingers up his ass. Anyway, it seems Amber has more shade in store for her new celebrity rival, Taylor. “Amber wants to have Calvin Harris on her show to talk about Taylor Swift. She knows that he has major dirt on her and she would love to have him spill their secrets to her,” a source tells Radar Online. “She reached out to Calvin’s people to work with them to get him on her show. He’s a loose cannon and his appearance could be ratings gold.” With taking this one with several grains of salt, as Harris doesn’t really strike us as the “loose cannon” type. And unfortunately for Amber, he already dealt with Taylor on Twitter . Sounds like she’ll just have to keep sharing her detailed theories with her shrill, Wendy-esque audience.

Leah Messer Fights Back: I Am More Than Just A "Bikini Body!"

It all started with a photo. Leah Messer didn’t think anything of sharing an Instagram of herself hanging poolside with family.   Fans didn’t like the look of Messer’s slim figure , and some even speculated that she had a drug problem. Messer was fed up with comments about her body, so she decided to take action. “First and foremost, there is much more to women than our bodies,” Messer said in a statement to Refinery29 . “Yet many women seem to continually judge others, not by their character, but by their bodies. “There are many more important issues going on in the world today than whether or not I had enough to eat for breakfast . (Side note: I had plenty.) “We should be focused on spreading love and kindness instead of mean-spirited bullying. Thankfully I am in a beautiful place in my life raising three wonderful, kind, loving and confident little girls. View Slideshow: 27 Stars Who Shamed Their Body-Shamers “The last thing I would want for them is to feel that they, too, could be ridiculed for their bodies.  So let’s stop with the shaming, start supporting one another, and focus on what really matters.” This is the first time Messer has issued a statement about criticism about her life (and there has been plenty ). After releasing that statement, it was obvious that Messer felt a weight lifted off her shoulders. “Looking back I’m sooo proud of the woman god is creating me into!(: #Happy #Healthy #Me&MyGirls,” she Instagramed yesterday. Today, Messer took back control of her body by posting a bikini selfie. “Lunchhh was delicious, and now it’s time to get back in the pool w/ my baby! Of course we miss sissys!

We Now Know What Ashton Kutcher’s Penis Looks Like

Mila Kunis is pregnant with her and Ashton Kutcher's second child . Therefore, we know she has had sex with the actor on a minimum of two occasions, meaning we can take the star's word for it when it comes to the shape of her husband's penis. Yes, ladies, we're about to talk about Ashton Kutcher's penis. On The Late Late Show Monday night, Kunis appeared as a guest on Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts, meaning she had to answer a personal question or eat some really disgusting. So after James Corde asked whether Kutcher’s private part was more akin to a “carrot stick or beer can,” Kunis had to respond… or drink a glass of clam juice. Egged on by fellow guest Christina Applegate, Kunis replied by comparing Kutcher's junk to a “carrot stick.” This elicited laughter from Corden because… well… carrot sticks aren't very impressive, size-wise. They're tall, but pretty darn thin. “But beer cans are short,” Kunis said in her defense. “No, not a big beer can,” Corden corrected the beauty. “A beer can!” Kunis therefore shouted as a correction, explaining: “I'm thinking it's short and stubby or long and thin. But no, [it's] like a Guinness.” So there you have it. Ashton Kutcher's penis is sort of like a Guiness can. Did the actor mind that his unit is now a topic of national conversation? Not when it's being described this way. “He was very happy about the Guinness,” Kunis told E! News. “And then I was like, 'I should've been like a 40!'” HA! Check out the clip of Kunis making this confession below. It's the first question she is asked in the segment.

Kim Kardashian Shares Bizarre Story of Fighting With Kanye at Chrissy Teigen’s Wedding

Back in 2013,  Chrissy Teigen and John Legend got married , and naturally, some of Hollywood’s biggest names turned out to celebrate the union of two A-listers. Unfortunately, one of the most famous invitees (who happens to also be one of Teigen’s BFF’s) was unable to attend – but that doesn’t mean she missed out on a minute of the action! Allow us to explain: The Teigen-Legend nuptials took place just three months after Kim Kardashian gave birth  to daughter North West. As we know, Kim likes to lay low until the baby weight is gone , so she wasn’t about to attend a star-studded and pap-friendly social event so soon after welcoming her first daughter. But good luck keeping Kanye away from that sort of thing. Yeezy attended on his own, which is only slightly weird. The really weird part is that he texted Kim non-stop throughout the ceremony and reception to let her know what she was missing out on: “I got in a fight with Kanye during your wedding,” Kim told Chrissy to promote … whatever crap one of them is promoting these days.  “I didn’t go … [North] was just born and I was so fat, and I had nothing to wear, so then he kept texting me, ‘Babe, this is the most beautiful wedding,’ ‘Babe, this is so pretty. I really wish you were here at Lake Como.’” “Literally a play-by-play text. We got into the biggest fight. ‘Just stop texting me. Go enjoy the wedding, you’re making me feel so bad!’” It would be one thing if Kanye was checking in on his wife and three-month old daughter, but no – homey was giving detailed reviews of the bacon-wrapped scallops. So yeah, Kanye sounds really annoying. Fortunately, he’s spent his whole career bracing us for this reveal by being obnoxious every chance he gets. Maybe it won’t be as hard for Kim and Taylor Swift to find some common ground as we thought! View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Hosts Posh Baby Shower for Chrissy Teigen: PHOTOS

Leah Messer: SLAMMED By Fans For Latest Video of Daughter Addie

If you watch Teen Mom 2 online , you know that questionable parenting decisions are kinda Leah Messer’s thing. Whether she’s passing out while holding a child or rushing her daughters off to school without breakfast , raising kids often feels like a job that Leah’s not particularly well-suited for, but she’s kinda stuck with it now, ya know? Leah, has been very vocal about the fact that she believes she’s simply a victim of bad editing. But we’re not buying it, in large part because some of the most damning evidence about her incompetence as a parent comes straight from her own Instagram page. Check out her latest WTF?! moment: Leah Messer Records Video of Daughter While Driving Yes, despite the fact that she gets criticized every single time she records video with while driving, Leah persists in dong so – with her kids in the car, no less. “She is soo happy! Will post some pics of her swimming soon! She is the definition of PERFECTION! #MyBaby -FYI: My eyes stayed on the road the ENTIRE time, so try to be nice on the comments. Otherwise I will block you, k? thanks!” Sigh. That’s not how this works, Leah. You don’t get to post video of yourself doing something stupid and dangerous and make yourself magically immune to criticism by saying, “But don’t worry, I was totes safe about it!” And it’s not like she filmed herself exercising caution while sticking a fork in an electrical outlet. When you do dumb things behind the wheel, you’re not just endangering yourself, but also everyone around you, including the adorable little girl in the backseat.  “I’ve lost real people in my real life because of distraction while driving on the phone. I promise you it’s worth the wait until you’re not driving. Be safe, have fun with those babies,” one commenter wrote. Another added, “Please, if you love your children don’t text and drive/record and drive. It was a cute video but PULL OVER to record it. Your lives are precious, don’t put them at risk because you’re on your phone.” Believe it or not, there was a time not that long ago when no one carried a tiny computer in their pocket, and when they drove, they did so without sending messages to anyone or sharing videos with millions of people. There were fewer distracted driving accidents, but that was partially due to the fact that you just don’t go as fast when you’re propelling the car with your own feet, a la Fred Flinstone. Anyway, we’re rambling in our old age. The point is – stop shooting videos while you’re driving, Leah! View Slideshow: Leah Messer Bad Parenting Excuse Hall of Fame

Selena Gomez Breaks Down in Concert, on Instagram: I Need to Rethink My Life!

Selena Gomez was on the verge of tears in concert, then broke down on Instagram this weekend, leaving fans worried for the singer. Labeling herself as inauthentic and disconnected (she said “unauthentic” and “unconnected,” but same thing), she’s clearly a hard time. That much is obvious … what we don’t know is what prompted it. The star kicked off the international part of her Revival world tour Saturday night in Jakarta, Indonesia, just one day after turning 24. She appeared to be having a blast with her friends as they all arrived in the country, looking giggly and excited to see everyone on Snapchat. “I’m very, very happy and excited,” she said in one video. The singer also noted that “everybody here is so nice.” Something beneath the facade is amiss though. Just before performing her hit song “Kill ‘Em With Kindness” to end the show, Gomez got emotional as she addressed the raucous crowd:  Selena Gomez Breaks Down in Concert “The next song,” she told the Selenators, “before I go home, is a song that’s so important to me, because I get really frustrated.” “I get stupid sometimes,” the singer said. “I say things that I don’t mean, or that come out wrong, just because I care so badly.” Was this an allusion to how so many people online  slammed Gomez for defending Taylor Swift  in her ongoing beef with Kimye? Selena quoted from her song as she said, fighting back tears:  “Truth is the last thing we need right now is hate, in any form. But the thing is, at the end of the day, no war in anger was ever won.” It’s not clear where she was going with that, but she went on: “I do know that deep down in my heart, that I have to believe that we can love each other and always be kind, no matter what it takes. “I believe that we can do that, no matter what.” That emotional plea might have been the end of it, but things took a more worrisome turn when Gomez posted a note on Insta later that night: “Tonight I felt extremely unauthentic, unconnected to both myself and my music,” she posted, as you can see from the screen shot above.  “I’ve never really felt like my materials, wardrobe or a video could define me. I act on a moment and fear that something hasn’t happened.” “I’m stagnant, I stay still and don’t just sit with myself first and ask ‘Is this where I am, whole heartedly?’ I’ve always told the truth.” “I’m always true to my word, I’ve shown who I am but I need to rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally.” Selena captioned the image, “not being negative about anything I’ve done. I’m grateful for every single moment I get here.” “Indonesia you were LOUD and clearly inspiring. Love you so much”  Again, we don’t know what prompted any of these surprising revelations, but it’s undeniable that something got in her head.  This would not be the first time Selena’s fragile mental state has been a cause for concern, but it’s worrisome nevertheless. Here’s hoping she finds whatever it is that she’s looking for.
