She wasn't the most anticipated act of the evening. Nor are most people buzzing over Tori Kelly this morning, either, not after Kanye West announced a Presidential run … Justin Bieber broke down on stage … and Nicki Minaj called Miley Cyrus a bitch . But they should be. Tori Kelly made her first-ever appearance on stage at the event on Sunday and she absolutely killed it. The vocals on “Should've Been Us” were insane, while Kelly came across like a total rock star when throwing her guitar to the audience. Emotion? Talent? Enthusiasm? No wonder Tori Kelly received a well-deserved standing ovation after this performance ended. Take it in now.

Has Hillary Clinton found her Presidential running mate? While Donald Trump was blasting one controversial celebrity on stage last night, the Democratic front-runner was cozying up to another, posing for a selfie we never imagined would be snapped. Yep, that’s Kim Kardashian turning the camera on herself and the former Secretary of States. And, yes, we see you back there, Kanye. Hi! The meeting between Kim and Hillary took place at Scooter Braun’s Los Angeles residence, where Justin Bieber ’s manager hosted a $2,700-per-person fundraiser for the Oval Office hopeful. After Tweeting that she hoped to pose for a picture with Clinton, Kim succeeded in her mission and wrote as a caption to the above image on Instagram: “I got my selfie!!! I really loved hearing her speak & hearing her goals for our country! #HillaryForPresident.” But will this picture come back to haunt Hillary? Will the GOP use her relationship to the Kim Kardashian sex tape star against her down the road? Eh, probably not. Kardashian isn’t the most politically-active celebrity out there, but she’s made her Democratic leanings public knowledge on occasion. When interviewed at the San Francisco Commonwealth Club in June and asked about Clinton potentially becoming the first female President of the United States, Kardashian replied in excitement: “I hope so!” View Slideshow: 30 Kim Kardashian Selfies That Nearly Broke the Internet
Jeb Bush Says Black Lives Matters Movement Is Just A Slogan Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush dismissed the Black Lives Matter movement and its eponymous chant as a political “slogan” Thursday, and said potential Democratic rival and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley should not have apologized for saying “white lives matter” during a protest last weekend at Netroots Nation. Via MSNBC : “If he believes that white lives matter, which I hope he does, then he shouldn’t apologize to a group that seems to disagree with it,” the Republican presidential candidate told reporters Thursday at a town hall in New Hampshire. The Black Lives Matter movement, sparked largely in response to recent killings of unarmed African-Americans by white police officers, shook up the presidential election this week following a surprise protest at the annual Netroots Nation conference in Phoenix, Arizona. On Saturday, the progressive gathering was interrupted when black activists took the stage during a presidential candidate forum, forcing O’Malley and fellow White House hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont into uncomfortable territory as they struggled to respond to questions on race relations and police violence. O’Malley came under fire for adding “white lives matter, all lives matter” to the protesters’ calls – a statement he has since apologized for. But Bush said Thursday that O’Malley had nothing to be sorry about. “I mean, we’re so uptight and so politically correct now that we apologize for saying ‘lives matter?’” Bush said. “Life is precious, it’s a gift from God. I frankly think that it’s one of the most important values that we have. I know in the political context, it’s a slogan, I guess. And should he have apologized? No.” Earlier in the day, Democratic presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton – who skipped this year’s Netroots and was, therefore, spared from the ambush – attempted to soar where her rivals had floundered on the issue and spoke at length about racial justice. Addressing a packed church in South Carolina, where an apparent hate crime recently left nine African-American parishioners dead, Clinton said: “It is essential that we all stand up and say loudly and clearly, ‘Yes, black lives matter.’” Discuss… YT
Donald Trump, we have found your running mate. While most celebrities (and, let’s face it, most warm-blooded humans with an IQ over 12) find the Presidential hopeful to be a pompous bigot, Dennis Rodman is here to throw his support behind the real estate mogul. For what reason? We’ll let Rodman explain via Twitter: “@realDonaldTrump has been a great friend for many years. We don’t need another politician, we need a businessman like Mr. Trump! Trump 2016.” Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion, of course, but Dennis Rodman is good friends with Kim Jong Un . We’re just saying. Trump is somehow leading many Republican polls at the moment, despite saying most Mexican immigrants are rapists … despite blasting John McCain for getting captured during the Vietnam War … and despite actually giving out Lindsey Graham’s cell phone number . But Rodman is right. He is a businessman. So does any of that other stuff really matter? View Slideshow: 13 Things Donald Trump Has Actually Said While Running for President
