A Lil Positivity: Beyonce Makes Model With Muscular Dystrophy The Face Of New Online Store

Model WIth Muscular Dystrophy Slays As New Face Of Beyonce’s Online Store Beyonce isn’t here for the “social norms.” Rather than casting a bunch of heroin-chic models to promote her new online store, Baddie Bey shook things up by casting Jillian Mercado, a blogger and model with muscular dystrophy. Jillian Mercado, a blogger and model with muscular dystrophy, has been cast as a new face of Beyoncé’s online store, where she can be seen modelling the T-shirts, hats and sweaters that comprise the pop star’s latest line of merchandise. Via Guardian : Jillian Mercado, a blogger and model with muscular dystrophy, has been cast as a new face of Beyoncé’s online store, where she can be seen modelling the T-shirts, hats and sweaters that comprise the pop star’s latest line of merchandise. Mercado announced the news through her social media channels: “OK LADIES now let’s get in FORMATION!” she wrote on Instagram. “So BEYond excited to finally announce that I’m on the official @beyonce website!!!” The image she posted features her in a wheelchair alongside two other models. Mercado is wearing a “hot sauce” cap and a sweater emblazoned with the line “I twirl on them haters”. Mercado has been represented by IMG Models since last year and has worked on campaigns for Diesel Jeans and Nordstrom. But the 28-year-old began in the industry much earlier, working as an intern at a variety of fashion magazines while studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, where her classmates compelled her to start blogging. Mercado wrote on Twitter that since the Beyoncé merchandise images had gone live, the feedback from the press had been “truly surreal” – and she used the moment to start another conversation. Referring to the term “wheelchair-bound”, which many in the disability community find offensive, she tweeted: “Now how about we fix that word bound…” Slay!

Oh, The Irony: Flaming Hypocrite “Uncle” Luke Endorses Donald Trump For President “Other Rappers Will Too”

2 Live Crew’s Uncle Luke Announces Support For Donald Trump’s Presidency Literally 9 days ago, Uncle Tom Luke was condemning Donald Trump’s racist rhetoric in an article he wrote in the MiamiTimes . Trump, on the other hand, has ratcheted up the Tea Party rhetoric. He shrewdly co-opted the party’s slogan, “Take America Back,” for his “Make America Great Again.” Last weekend, he refused to condemn former KKK grand wizard David Duke for endorsing his candidacy. On Twitter, he later offered a lame apology: “As I stated at the press conference on Friday regarding David Duke – I disavow.” Trump believes his tweets fly right over the heads of uneducated white people who are about that Klan life. He’ll just accuse the media of reverse racism. And it’s working. I don’t see how Trump will beat Hillary Clinton in a general election. But if he were to win the presidency, he would not last more than a year in the White House. The establishment Republicans and the Democrats in Congress would find a way to impeach his ass. Today, on CNN, Uncle Tom Luke gave the same racist his support for President of the United States of America. . @unclelukereal1 recalls partying with Donald Trump: “I remember him being a cool guy” https://t.co/Syw4ZVotVC https://t.co/Fi9Nv2Uiaf — CNN Politics (@CNNPolitics) March 10, 2016 Did I just see Uncle Luke endorse Trump??? Did I?? pic.twitter.com/z8FLljamFB — Hip Hop Digest Show (@HipHopDigest) March 10, 2016 SMH. Trump must have taught Luke how to flip-flop on issues like this… Image via AP

Kim Kardashian: DISGUSTED By Kanye’s Lyrics About Taylor Swift?

Ever since Kim Kardashian and Kanye West got married back in May of 2014, the couple has been at the center of countless divorce rumors. Obviously, in the past they all turned out to be bogus, but this time, we have reason to believe that the end of Kimye might be really be upon us for two very good reasons: The couple has done little to refute the many, many reports that their marriage is soon to come to an end, and We can’t imagine anyone putting up with Kanye’s recent behavior without formulating an escape plan. Naturally, Kim has been upset by much of Kanye’s recent behavior (and we’re guessing she’s not thrilled about his $53 million in debt , either), but there was one outburst in particular that really made her consider walking out. According to Radar Online, Kim was “disgusted” by Kanye’s attack on Taylor Swift , and she’s now demanding that the rapper do whatever he can to make things right with the beloved singer. “Kim and pretty much the entire family are absolutely horrified over Kanye’s recent behavior,” says a source close to the situation . “The lyrics on his album are atrocious and his attack on Taylor disgusting. Kim’s now on the warpath and Kanye’s being bullied into submission.” The insider says that unless Kanye earns Taylor’s forgiveness, Kim will pull the plug on her badly troubled marriage: “Kim has actually threatened to walk out on him and said he’ll never see his kids, her or her family again unless he gets his anger under control and apologizes to everyone who’s been hurt, including Taylor,” “She’s sick of cleaning up after his messes and not everyone realizes it was she who orchestrated Kanye’s dinner with Taylor last year.” So the fate of Kanye’s marriage rests in Taylor’s hands. We’d be worried if we were him. Anyone who’s listened to her music knows she loves a good breakup. View Slideshow: 45 Kute and Kuddly Kimye Photos

Leonardo DiCaprio is Dating a Model Named Roxy Horner Because Of Course He Is

In case you’ve been spent the past few days wandering the Great Plains in search of the bearded ne’er-do-well who left you for dead following a bear attack, let us be the first to inform you that  Leonardo DiCaprio won his his first Academy Award on Sunday for playing a puddle of testosterone come to life in The Revenant .  After dating Kelly Rohrbach throughout most of his Oscar campaign, Leo decided to drop his model of the moment in the weeks leading up to the big night, perhaps so he could do his usual self-consciously endearing thing and bring his mom as his red carpet date. But now that he’s hoisted his Oscar, Leo can get back to putting his hands on other shiny gold hard-bodies. Yes, in news that’s certain to shock you to your core and make you question everything you thought you knew about the man, Leonardo DiCaprio is dating a model in her early 20s. Specifically, he’s dating the 24-year-old pictured above, who sports the hilariously pole-ready name of Roxy Horner. Based on the information provided on her Instagram page, Roxy enjoys modeling, and doing other modelly stuff, which makes her a perfect fit for Leo. Unfortunately, at 24, she’s basically the DiCaprio girlfriend equivalent of a week-old banana. We’re guessing homie’s already planning his next trip to the produce department, but hey, enjoy it while it lasts, Roxy! Play your cards right and you might get to meet Lukas Haas!

David Foster & Selma Blair: Dating?!?

We have to admit, if this is true, it kinda gives us the icks. David Foster, music producer and soon-to-be ex-husband of Yolanda Foster, was spotted sharing an intimate dinner in West Hollywood with actress Selma Blair, a source tells Radar Online. “Selma and David were alone together at dinner and they looked really cozy,” revealed the source. Unfortunately, we’re not sure just what the witness meant by “cozy” – hands-on-thighs cozy, exchanging-knowing-glances cozy or simply sat-at-the-same-table cozy. However, all this cozy was apparently interrupted by another celebrity who was also dining at the restaurant: Caitlyn Jenner. “Caitlyn sat with the couple for a while and then she went to her own booth,” the source told the site. If you think this sounds like an odd trio, we’re on the same page. We don’t know if Yolanda is aware of her ex’s new “friendship” with Selma, but if she disapproves, we probably won’t hear about it. Bravo reportedly wanted to exploit all the dirty details of David and Yolanda’s divorce on her show,  The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , but the former model refused to participate. “Yolanda and David have a very strict prenuptial agreement that says they can’t discuss each other negatively in any public setting…including television,” a source told Radar. In addition, Yolanda simply doesn’t want to drag her relationship through the public mud. “Yolanda and David discussed the importance of handling the proceedings with dignity and class soon after she filed,” added the source. “So she refuses to speak badly about him on the show.” Guess this means we gotta keep hearing the other Housewives bicker over whether or not Yo actually has Lyme Disease or not .

Jermaine Jackson Slams Donald Trump Claiming He Was Cool With Michael Jackson

Jermaine Jackson Blasts Donald Trump For Namedropping Michael Donald Trump randomly felt the need to bring up his old “friend” Michael Jackson, and speak on his surgeries and self esteem issues while on his campaign trail the other day: And Jermaine was NOT having it. Via NYDN : Donald Trump should “Beat It,” according to the King of Pop’s big brother. Former Jackson 5 member Jermaine Jackson slammed the blowhard billionaire Friday for speculating that his late friend Michael Jackson had lost his confidence due to “bad, bad, bad” plastic surgery. “‘Friends’ don’t pay tribute by peddling b.s. theories about Michael’s ‘loss in confidence,’” the musician tweeted in response to the loudmouthed mogul’s comments during a CNN GOP town hall. “This fool Trump needs to sit down.” “Michael’s confidence was affected by the pressures, injustice and vitriol of external circumstances,” he added. “Period.” Jackson also accused Trump — who embarked on an unexpected tangent about Jacko’s life and legacy during Thursday’s Anderson Cooper-hosted event — of pandering to the Moonwalker’s fans. “Name-dropping Michael don’t make you cool and won’t win you votes,” he said. “Especially when using botched facts.” Good for Jermaine standing up for his brother’s legacy. Who asked Donald anyway??? Associated Press / Splash

Mike Myers is a Little Bitch and Caused my FB Ban of the Day

So this little bitch is named Mike Myers, probably not his real name, but who really needs a name when you’re a a little bitch…was polluting my FB page about THIS PEYTON MANNING STORY saying shoving your asshole in an employees face is “frat boy” and not sexual assault. Idiot. Frat Boy and Sexual Assault are SYNONYMS in the Thesaurus. Either way, she reported this comment I wrote directed at him on facebook….which was amazing..because I am so funny.
