The whiny blonde got herself into some scalding hot water when she went out of her way to clap at the son of universally respected (and sadly deceased) sports reporter Craig Sager.

All of which Kacy Sager, Craig Sr.’s daughter, pointed out in a lengthy, finger-cramping clap back… Dear @BrittMcHenry : pic.twitter.com/4nrcCHg2wB — Kacy Sager (@THESagerbomb) December 15, 2017 We can understand Kacy coming to the defense of her brother, but a this whole back-and-forth is pretty petty at the end of the day… Strangers looking for click-bait.

Grateful for all the support of Conservatives and sports fans who follow! — Britt McHenry (@BrittMcHenry) December 15, 2017 That said, f**k Britt McHenry and the Trump-supporting privilege she rode in on.
Matt Lauer is out. But who is in?!? On the heels of NBC axing Lauer from his co-hosting gig on The Today Show, in the wake of VERY disturbing sexual misconduct allegations , questions are starting to go from this: What the Hell is wrong with Matt Lauer?!? To this: Who will replace Matt Lauer? Some have naturally speculated that Megyn Kelly will swoop in and take Lauer’s seat alongside Savannah Gurthrie, considering how much NBC is paying her each year. But she only just started her own hour on Today. Would the network really move her so quickly? If not Kelly, however, it really is unclear just who will take over for Lauer, which is largely because Lauer himself has served as a deterrent to potential future anchors. Remember: these sexual assault charges are shocking. But there’s been talk of Lauer getting fired for years now, due to his huge contract, the show’s faltering ratings and his perceived bad attitude. Lauer was aware of these rumors. In response, he went out of his way to ensure such reporters as David Gregory, Josh Elliott and Billy Bush were unprepared to sit in his chair. “Matt killed off, in their infancy, every man who could succeed him at the time that he was ready to hang it up,” an insider tells Page Six. “So there’s nobody to take his place. And now NBC is paying the price.” Hoda Kotb announced that Lauer was fired early last week, but she’s entrenched with Kathie Lee Giffored on their own hour of Today. No one takes her seriously as a candidate. Reportedly, Craig Melvin, who serves as a host on Weekend Today, is being strongly considered for the job of Lauer’s replacement. However, one network executive doesn’t think he’s suitable. “I couldn’t pick him out of a lineup,” this executive tells The New York Post. At the moment, Willie Geist probably leads the pack. He’ll get the job, if we had to guess right now. Ironically, meanwhile, ratings for Today have shot up in the wake of Lauer’s firing. We guess this isn’t all that stunning, with folks wanting to tune in and see how the series is handling his dismissal. To the network’s credit, Today has been covering the Lauer debacle just like any news story. It’s not holding anything back just because it is involved in the case. And to whomever does replace Lauer, there’s no reason to be nervous: Lauer may have raped someone . In other words: he’s set the bar VERY low. You’ll do fine.

When Kailyn Lowry welcomed her third child back in August, many wondered if baby daddy Chris Lopez would play any role at all in the boy’s life. Thus far, it seems the skeptics were right, and Lopez has largely been an absentee dad. Now, however, it looks like he’s planning to make up for lost time–and that could be bad news for Kailyn. A cryptic tweet posted by Lopez earlier this week has many fans wondering if the Delaware State University student is planning to fight his ex for custody of little Lux. Lopez wrote simply, “The wait is almost over.” Obviously, the tweet doesn’t contain much in the way of new information, but many Teen Mom 2 fans believe Lopez is hinting that he’ll soon be waging a custody war against Kailyn. It would be something of a surprise move, as Lopez has apparently shown little interest in being a part of his son’s life in the months since Lux entered the world. During the Teen Mom 2 reunion show filmed back in October, Kailyn revealed that she and Chris hadn’t been in contact with one another for several weeks. “Chris and I haven’t seen each other in a month so he hasn’t seen the baby, either,” Kailyn told host Dr. Drew Pinksy. “It’s kind of a hard pill to swallow,” she added. Lowry went on to describe her relationship with Lopez in a decidedly unflattering fashion: “You know, he cheated on me my whole pregnancy. The things I went through… All the way leading up to having him was something that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy,” she told Pinsky. “You know, it was like, ‘Oh, it’ll get better, it’ll get better’ and then it never got better. There’s no contact at all.” Recently, Chris has stooped to taking shots at Kailyn on social media, such as the photo below which shows him burning a copy of her latest memoir. Sadly, Lowry’s description of Lopez as a deadbeat dad doesn’t come as much of a surprise. During her pregnancy, Lopez reportedly informed Kailyn that he would fulfill his financial obligations to her, but had no interest in serving as a father figure in Lux’s life. It’s unclear when exactly Lopez changed his mind, but it’s clear that in Kailyn’s eyes, the decision came too late. Just last week, Kailyn changed Lux’s last name from Lopez to Lowry, seemingly to spite Chris. Needless to say, it doesn’t look as though Kail and Chris will be able to resolve their issues amicably. Watch Teen Mom 2 online for more on the life and tumultuous times of Kailyn Lowry. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry: Torn Between Dom Potter & Dionisio Cephas?
Source: ABC Photos Archives / Getty We are in the full age of extreme nostalgia, where practically all things from the 90s (and even the late 80s) are just as beloved and popular as they once were during their initial heyday. Whether you long for the fashion, the music, the movies or just the overall vibe, it’s no doubt that in these current troubling times overdosing on nostalgia is the ultimate great escape. There is one nostalgic medium that has picked up steam in the last few years—and that’s television. Many classic shows from a bygone era have not only been rebooted, but also have become hits for a new generation. From Fuller House and The X-Files to this fall’s Will & Grace and the upcoming Roseanne , reboots of classic shows are the hottest ticket in town. This got us thinking about our favorite classic shows that would be perfect to reboot in this unsettling era we live in. Now before we get into it, two of the most popular black TV shows of all-time are not on this list, so for obvious and unfortunate reasons The Cosby Show and Martin are not included. This list is still lit though, so check out which classic shows we think need to come back and remind us of the good ‘ol days! Sister, Sister – According to recent reports, the deal is almost done to bring this show back—and we couldn’t be more excited! The great thing about a Sister, Sister reboot is that the show didn’t revolve around a strict premise that would need to be heavily adjusted due to time passing. In short, it can pick up in present day and be just fine. Tia Mowry has previously stated that all cast members from the show are all on board, which makes things even better. The beloved twins are both married with children in real life, but the reboot could explore either both of them single, married or a combination of both. There’s also the welcomed presence of the pair’s parents—is Lisa still married to her husband or did she start dating Ray again? Tia and Tamera have such a positive, infectious energy that is definitely needed these days…so hurry up with the reboot! Living Single – There have been rumblings over the last year or so that the groundbreaking 90s FOX sitcom Living Single could be playing the reboot game. Queen Latifah has gone on the record as saying that she is not very interested, but that she’s working on it and hopes that everything falls properly in place. Living Single could absolutely still work in today’s television landscape because during the end of series’ original run left the ladies at critical points in their romantic and professional lives. They were young twentysomethings then and a lot could have happened between then and now, such as who’s still single and who’s not? Besides, the natural chemistry between the cast was always what made it so funny and relatable, and as long as you have that a reboot would be very successful. A Different World – Talks have been going on about rebooting this series for so long that it almost feels like it won’t ever happen—despite members of the cast and crew being totally willing to do it. The themes that A Different World covered back in the day are still very relevant in this current era and showcasing the college experience of an HBCU would be great to explore once again. There are a few ways to go with a reboot, the obvious would be to feature the children of the show’s main cast members (Whitley, Dwayne, Ron, Freddie, Kim, Jaleesa) as they attend Hillman. Another way could be to have the original cast have current ties to the university, ala working on staff, volunteering, mentoring, etc. In the years since the idea of a reboot has been brought up, BET has added The Quad to its line-up, which is supposed to be like a new A Different World , but it only proves that there’s nothing like the real thing. Moesha – Earlier this month the entire cast of the classic Brandy Norwood-led sitcom Moesha reunited on the daytime talk show The Real and it got fans excited to see a possible reboot. When the cast was asked collectively if they would be down for a reboot, there was an enthusiastic “YES!” from them all. If you think about it, a reboot is only fair considering the sloppy way the show was cancelled, leaving several cliffhangers that were never resolved. Although it would be sad that Lamont Bentley (Hakeem,) Bernie Mac (Uncle Bernie) and Yvette Wilson (Andell) won’t be a part of it due to their unfortunate deaths, an updated Moesha could still come out and give us that 90s vibe all over again. Girlfriends – She may be living it up now in her Golden Globe-winning role as Dr. Rainbow Johnson on ABC’s Blackish , but to many fans Tracee Ellis Ross will always be our beloved Joan Clayton from the classic sitcom Girlfriends . In its final season, the core four had been reduced to three when cast member Jill Marie Jones (Toni Childs) left the series. As a result, fans didn’t like the final season as much and have demanded that the series tie up loose ends in the form of a movie, reunion or a full-blown reboot. As recent as 2016, Tracee Ellis Ross said that she would completely be ready for a reboot and that the rest of the cast would as well. However, show creator Mara Brock Akil has said in the past the issue lies behind the scenes within the business aspect of the show, specifically CBS Studios. Hopefully things can get worked out because we desperately need our beloved Girlfriends to return. Family Matters – Now you may think that a reboot of Family Matters may be a bit hard to pull off given that Steve Urkel is in his 40s and it’s probably difficult to attempt the Urkel voice these days, but there a perfect way around it. Jaleel White can reprise his role as Steve Urkel, but this time it’s he and wife Laura’s son who is the lovable nerd. After the cast recently participated in a reunion photoshoot for Entertainment Weekly , fans have been going crazy with the thought of the Winslow’s coming back for another round. Fans questions were running so rampant that rumors of a reboot already in the works started to swirl, which led Jaleel White to confirm that currently there are no plans for it…but you never know what could happen. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air – There is one way and one way only that this reboot would work…get Will Smith’s son Jaden to star in the series and reprise his father’s role in an updated capacity. Not only is the resemblance between the two uncanny, Jaden is a natural actor in his own right and it would be cool to see a reboot done with someone who has real-life ties to the original star. Maybe Will, Jada and Willow could do some guests appearances on the potential reboot, along with original cast members? Unfortunately, the odds of a reboot happening are slim to none, as co-star Alfonso Ribeiro shut down all hopes earlier this year in an interview. Also, there’s the fact that one of the centerpieces of the show is gone in James Avery’s beloved Uncle Phil character, the actor passed in 2013. Soul Food – When you sit back and think of the fact that there are only a handful of black family dramas on TV, you realize just how important and essential the Showtime hit series Soul Food was to the television landscape. Based on the hit 1997 film of the same name, Soul Food was one of the few film-to-TV adaptations that was just as good as its source material. The always relevant themes of family, love, career and life’s obstacles mean that Soul Food could pick up right where it left off and feel just a timely today. In an unexpected twist, a sequel to the film is reportedly in the works, but there is no word on if the TV adaptation would ever come back. Perhaps if the film’s sequel does well it could drum up interest in a TV reboot? Fingers crossed! The Chappelle Show – File this one under “no chance in hell of it ever happening”—but that doesn’t mean we can’t dream about what could be. Given that Dave Chappelle abruptly quit his iconic show and left a whopping $50 million on the table, there is absolutely no chance that he would consider returning his show to TV audiences, despite how bad we need it right now. Can you imagine the satirical comedic skits that Chappelle could come up with revolving around the Trump administration? It would be comedy gold! Nevertheless, it won’t happen, but just be glad that Chappelle has returned from his self-imposed exile and is performing stand-up again around the country and on Netflix. The Wire – This is another show that will likely never see a reboot, but it definitely should. See, like many iconic things, the general public didn’t appreciate The Wire like it should have until it was gone. It was repeatedly snubbed at awards shows and ratings were always on the lower side, but it became a cult classic and now viewers realize just how absolutely amazing the show really was. Since it has become more popular now than it ever was during its original run, many fans think a reboot is a no-brainer. However, the show’s creator is adamant that it was special and specific in its time-frame and succeeded at telling a certain story. Still, with all of the police corruption going on around the country, especially Baltimore where the original show was based, The Wire would be required viewing in today’s current climate.

Source: Carl Court / Getty There’s almost nothing celebrities can do once some risky pictures of them start circulating among the wrong hands. Usually looking for a money grab, people will hack certain accounts or go to other great lengths just to find some pictures they can sell online and make a little cash–and a lot of times, celebrities will oblige and pay the price for their own discretion. That’s not always what happens, though. Sia is a musician known for wanting to keep her identity and celebrity under wraps. Though a few photos of her have been seen before, she’s usually seen with a mask or huge wig covering the better part of her face. With protocol like that for just her facial features, you’d think she would go to great lengths to keep other parts of herself from getting out, too–but you would be very, very wrong. Apparently, the paparazzi took a picture of Sia and were trying to sell it for some big bucks to her loyal fans. The “Chandelier” singer decided to post the naked picture of her backside on her own Instagram page for free, so she could stop anyone with its possession for selling it for any money. She wrote on the post, “Save your money, here it is for free. Everyday is Christmas!” Everyone is in agreement that Sia is completely iconic for getting ahead of everything and just posting the nude photo on her own. Congrats to Sia for beating the system, Merry Christmas!
A recent incident that involved racist graffiti scrawled on a man’s car near Kansas State University was a hoax, police said Monday, that called attention to rising racial tensions at the school. A parked black vehicle in an apartment complex near the university in Manhattan, Kansas was painted with racial slurs including the N-word and “Die,” the Riley County Police Department said after having discovered the car Wednesday. Photos of the car spread on social media and caused a major uproar on the university’s campus. The vehicle’s owner, Dauntarius Williams , 21, who is Black and lives in the community, confessed to having defaced his own car in a Halloween prank amid the uproar, authorities explained in a news release Monday. JUST IN: Police say man admits he put racist graffiti on his own car, incident stirred tensions at Kansas State University pic.twitter.com/0fYOj0jcv8 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) November 6, 2017 “I just want to apologize from the bottom of my heart for the pain and news I have brought you all,” Williams said in a statement. Police have declined to file charges against Williams though he filed a false incident report in a rare move, especially given that many Black men are painted as criminals for any perceived wrongdoing. Williams is a “young man who made a mistake” and has “[owned] up to it,” Brad Schoen , Riley County Department Police Director, explained. The case “created difficulties” in the community, police said. The university’s Black Student Union called an emergency meeting before Williams’ admission. More campus patrols were added, and concerned parents held a Facebook Live event. The FBI opened a civil rights investigation into a possible hate crime, the New York Post reported. “We want to acknowledge that people felt anger and pain as a result of pictures and words that they saw,” said Jeff Morris , a Kansas State University spokesman to the Post Monday. The incident followed previous racially charged events that had already put the campus on edge. An anti-gay slur was found outside the university student union in October. White supremacist fliers were found on campus in September, and a noose was discovered hanging from a campus tree in May. No arrests have been made in any of the previous incidents that put race front and center, they said. Officials will continue with campus patrols and assess concerns for more cameras, they said. More work to combat racist incidents, however, is needed.

G entrification in the nation’s capital continues to displace more of the city’s longtime African-American residents, as the Black population in the District of Columbia has fallen below 50 percent for the first time in decades. READ MORE: Here’s Definitive Proof Gentrification Is Racist, As Told By A Participating Brooklyn Landlord The Washington Post reports that Georgetown University published a study that analyzes the impact of the district’s booming economy on Black residents and offers recommendations to stem the exodus. More impact of DC gentrification. The economic impact. https://t.co/vIJZWPngt9 — Aisha (@revkarimah) October 13, 2017 The report, which pulls data from several other studies, paints a picture of profound economic disparities between the city’s Black and White residents. The average net worth of a White household is $284,000 compared to just $3,500 for Black households. There’s also a huge gap in median annual incomes: Whites at $120,000 and Blacks at $41,000. That’s not surprising because half of the new jobs in the district’s economy require at least a bachelor’s degree. Only 12 percent of Blacks in the city were college graduates in 2014, the study noted. Consequently, White residents can pay more for houses and apartments, which is driving up costs and reducing available affordable housing. Many of these inequalities stem from a history of discrimination that pushed the district’s Black residents to the fringes of the economy, the study said. Historic discriminatory practices range from segregated schools to redlining, in which banks refused to lend money to Black entrepreneurs and home buyers. Creating opportunities for Black-owned businesses is one key solution. The report urges the D.C. Chamber of Commerce and city agencies to build a database of minority businesses and do more to help them thrive. Local universities can also play a role by offering courses on business development.
