This is the Dad Life … it’s how we live, 24/7/365. No more to be said. Said life is one to be celebrated, whether it’s Father’s Day or any other day, and whether you’re giving props to your own dad or the father of someone you know. Bottom line, Father’s Day is a great opportunity to thank the man who helped raise you. Because those World’s Best Dad coffee mugs don’t win themselves. You don’t have to be a dad yourself to appreciate this viral video – an oldie but goodie – honoring fathers across the nation on this 15th day of June. Break out the John Deere and the barbecue and have a good one: The Dad Life Being a dad isn’t easy, but nothing in this world is more worthwhile. For being there for school pickups to reading before bed, coaching little league and generally just being awesome, we thank all of you dads out there. On a related note, here are 15 celebrity dads we particularly love: 15 Celebrity Dads We Love 1. Channing Tatum Channing Tatum is super in love with his daughter Everly. He even wore her when she was a newborn to shield her from the paparazzi AND help her stay soothed.
We never thought we would say this, but turns out there may be something cuter than a baby napping with a puppy : A pig napped with two puppies! A imgur user has posted the following photos online, revealing very little about how this unusual friendship came to be, except to joke as a headline “My pig has an identity crisis.” That may be true. But it’s an adorable identity crisis! In this age of unexpected animal friendships ( see goat, donkey ), this has to be the most AWWW-inspiring, wouldn’t you say? Click around now and you’ll quickly agree… Pig Cuddles with Dogs: See the Pics! 1. Pig Cuddles with Dog Is there anything cuter in the world than a pig snuggling with a dog? There may not be.
When it comes to some of Hollywood’s biggest and brighest stars, many of them are quick to thank their parents for unconditional support throughout the years. Others, however, have tales of very public estrangement from their parents, their fathers in particular. Both make for interesting celebrity gossip stories. Since it’s Father’s Day, we thought we’d take a look at 9 celebrities and their dads. 9 Celebrities and Their Famous Fathers 1. Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus Miley’s dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, has always supported his daughter’s musical career, for good or for ill. It’s hard to find a more supportive father than Billy Ray Cyrus. Despite any and all of Miley Cyrus’ crazy antics throughout the years, Billy Ray has stood by his baby girl. Since it was his career which introduced her to this life, he’s probably making the right call by keeping any disappointments he may have to himself. Jon Voight, on the other hand, who also introduced his daughter, Angelina Jolie, to the world of Hollywood, has had a very tumultuous relationship with his offspring. After being estranged for several years throughout Jolie’s teens, the two reconciled only to have a public falling out again in 2002. He went on the record to say she has mental health issues and she went on the record to call him a big ol’ cheater. And now they’re one big happy family again. Speaking of one big, happy family, Bruce Jenner’s son Brody Jenner – one of the first of that family to careen into a career in reality television and ironically one who is eschewing the spotlight now that his sisters and stepmother are standing center stage – is publicly standing by his father while Bruce undergoes, well, whatever it is he’s undergoing right now. And then there’s Beyonce, Jessica Simpson, and Katy Perry. Beyonce and Jessica Simpson were both managed by their fathers and owe large parts of their careers to their dads, even if those relationships just aren’t what they used to be. Katy Perry, on the other hand, ran from her father’s Evangelical ways and has been referred to as “devil spawn.” She still takes her dad to basketball games, though. That’s gotta be a sign they’re still on good terms, right? 15 Celebrity Dads We Love 1. Channing Tatum Channing Tatum is super in love with his daughter Everly. He even wore her when she was a newborn to shield her from the paparazzi AND help her stay soothed.
The chemistry between 19 Kids & Counting star Jessa Duggar and her boyfriend, Ben Seewald, got a lot of attention on this week’s episode of the TLC show. While Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard, whose full-frontal hug and courtship rules violation got a lot of media attention, eyes were also on Jessa and Ben. Specifically: Are they already following in Jill and Derick’s footsteps? Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald The 21-year-old Duggar daughter recently started her own accounts on Twitter and Instagram, listing herself as “Jessa Seewald.” Yes, Seewald. Does that mean she’s already engaged – or even married – to Ben? Jessa only joined social media so that she could interact with him, apparently, as the sweet duo have done nothing but post cute selfies together. It’s clear that Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald are in love, regardless of relationship status or whether they’re saving their first kiss for marriage (they are). Her use of the Seewald name aside, they’re likely not engaged. Yet. Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Interview Not because they don’t want to be, necessarily. They likely do. But because Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard (above) set to wed on June 21, and that’s right around the corner, it would take the spotlight off of her. They’re likely waiting until after that to announce anything. Since her older sister is planning to wed soon, we’d imagine Jessa and Ben are holding off on an official engagement so that they don’t overshadow Jill. Family first. SO Many Duggars 1. A Duggar Family Pic Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are still working on that 20th kid.
Throw that boy p …never mind. Tyson Beckford, Michael Jai White Cast As Male Strippers In New Film We’re sure some ladies ( and quite a few gents ) are going to be super-excited to see this! A new film about the Black male stripper scene is set to hit theaters with Michael Jai White and Tyson Beckford serving as the primary eye candy. How do you think their shirtless, oiled-up gyrations will measure up against Channing Tatum’s? Via Deadline : Channing Tatum did it with Magic Mike, and his co-star Joe Manganiello sold upcoming docu La Bare on the strength of the tantalizing subject matter. Now indie helmer Jean-Claude LaMarre (Gang Of Roses, Color Of The Cross) is hoping to tap into the world of male strippers with his urban take, Chocolate City, which aims to merge the Magic Mike phenomenon with the recent strength of African-American-themed films at the box office. Black Dynamite star Michael Jai White and model-turned-actor Tyson Beckford are in negotiations to star in the tale of Devin, a college student struggling to make ends meet who meets the owner of a male strip club (White) who convinces him to give amateur night a whirl. Beckford will play Adrian, the club’s former star attraction who finds his popularity fading as the new kid starts to steal the spotlight. “This movie was in gestation for 2 1/2 years, but after Magic Mike it seemed a natural fit for the African-American female audience,” LaMarr told me. I researched the male exotic club scene and it’s massive across the country, with clubs specifically targeting middle-aged African-American women.” Finally…a race-themed flick specifically for the thirsty ladies! Will you be watching?
There’s nothing like staring at a man in uniform to kick off the work week, right?

Here, overall stats, batting averages and team standings don’t completely… Read more
One of the perks of being a pro athlete? The paycheck. At least, to those of us who don’t play professional sports, making $5 million a year to play football seems like a pretty okay gig. Another perk of that job? The athletes would probably say it’s the hot wives and girlfriends. Until they find out that their wives and girlfriends make more money than they do. But some guys, like Hank Baskett and Gerard Pique don’t seem to care that their wives are bringing home the bacon. They’re all… enlightened or something. (Or they just like the money and don’t care who makes it. That’s probably it.) Here are 9 athletes who make LESS money than their wives or girlfriends: 9 Athletes Who Make Less Than Their WAGs Open Slideshow 1. Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady How does one of the most famous quarterbacks in the NFL top his own salary? By marrying the most famous and highly-paid model in the WORLD. View As List 1. Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady How does one of the most famous quarterbacks in the NFL top his own salary? By marrying the most famous and highly-paid model in the WORLD. 2. Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson Eric Johnson played football for, like, 2 minutes. Jessica Simpson keeps herself in the spotlight which means she keeps herself in the money. 3. Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett Hank Bassett’s paycheck from his football career is no match for Kendra’s significant financial ASSets. 4. Elisabeth and Tim Hasselbeck Now that Elisabeth has jumped from spouting her extrememe views on The View to the cameras at Fox, Tim Hasselbeck never has to work again. 5. Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher Carrie Underwood is the most successful star to come out of American Idol and Mike Fisher plays hockey in the US. Her fanbase is way bigger than his and so is her paycheck. 6. Adriana Lima and Marko Jaric Marko Jaric out-kicked his coverage by marrying Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima. Her paycheck makes her the 4th highest paid supermodel in the world. 7. Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie All Hilary Duff’s done in the past two years is have a baby and she’s STILL making more money than Mike Comrie. That’s TALENT. 8. Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom While their marriage is headed to divorce court, there was no way Lamar Odom could compete with Khloe Kardashian’s family net worth of nearly $80 million. 9. Shakira and Gerard Pique Marrying Shakira made Gerard Pique a worldwide star earning $4 million a year. But that’s a paltry number compared to Shakira’s salary.
Demi Lovato may only be 21 years old, but she’s already experienced a lifetime of ups, downs, heartbreaks and addictions. Having struggled with self-esteem issues and spent many months in rehab, the singer now tells Cosmopolitan that she wants to serve as an example to others who can relate to her plight. “When I was younger, I needed someone in the spotlight to idolize, who stood for positivity and light and happiness, and wanted to change the world,” she tells the publication. “And because I didn’t have that, I realized, I want to do that, if only for my 12-year-old little sister.” Demi Lovato Cosmopolitan Photos Open Slideshow 1.

We have so much to be grateful for.” Amen, Demi. Amen. In order to help others like her, Lovato has been open about her bipolar disorder, another topic she addresses with the magazine. “It’s a daily thing. I treat it with medication. Not everybody does that, but for me it works. That’s what works for me – medicating, checking in with people, being honest, and being grateful for things.” For more inspiring words from Demi Lovato, pick up this issue of Cosmopolitan.
