Sacramento Kings And Boston Celtics Honor Stephon Clark, Unarmed Black Father Killed By Police

(Paul Kitagaki Jr./Sacramento Bee/TNS via Getty Images) Woke Kings: Sacramento’s NBA Team Joins With Celtics To Honor Unarmed Black Man Killed By Cops We love how politically engaged NBA players have been during a time when it is so needed! Just a week after Stephon Clark was gunned down in his own backyard by Sacramento police, the Kings and Celtics protested by wearing black warm-up tees with “Accountability. We are One” on the front and “#StephonClark” on the back. The teams had the support of the NBA, who posted about their plans on their official website before the game. The move follows protests in the city earlier this week that delayed the Kings matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Seventeen players from the two teams also appeared in a public service message that was played on the giant jumbotron TV screen inside the Kings’ home arena at Golden 1 Center during a time-out. The 30-second spot was greeted by cheers from among the thousands of fans attending the game, Kings spokesman Chris Clark said. You can watch below: The Celtics were also vocal about March for Our Lives this weekend. An emotional PSA is set to air during tonight's game in Sacramento. Shane Larkin explains why he and the C's took part, and Brad Stevens sings praise to the #MarchForOurLives movement: https://t.co/L5n58uXFH9 — Boston Celtics (@celtics) March 25, 2018 “I’m honored to follow them,” Brad Stevens says of our youth’s #MarchForOurLives movement. “Every generation gets better.” — Boston Celtics (@celtics) March 25, 2018 We are glad to see these athletes calling for change!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10 Episode 17 Recap: Shade Will Be Thrown

Marc Daly is real, you guys! On The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10 Episode 17 , we finally got to lay eyes on Kenya Moore’s husband, and we’re amazed about it.  If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online , you will know that Kenya’s marriage has been the subject of much scrutiny because of it all happening in secret.  Her pals have wondered whether there was more to it than met the eye, but Kenya kept countering that her man was just not into the way men were portrayed on the franchise.  Kenya’s storyline has been lacking on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 10, and we would not be surprised if she were officially fired.  In any case, she finally got something to do this week. Remember the PSA about domestic violence from Cynthia Bailey? Well, Kenya was given the opportunity to speak out about it during a screening party.  This involved bringing some survivors out, glamming them up and parading them around for the Bravo cameras. As expected, all of the housewives showed up for the festivities.  It’s fantastic that these women can put all of the drama aside to come together for a good cause. Maybe there’s hope for them yet.  Sheree was quick to question where Marc was, and Kenya looked like she wanted to burst into tears. She blatantly said her husband could not book a plane ticket.  In one of the biggest shockers in recent memory, Marc brazenly walked through the doors of the event just as Kenya was giving her speech.  Sheree continued to ruffle feathers by making comments about his nose ring. Yes, Sheree is one of the wittiest housewives out there.  Marc wasted no time in letting the others know just how proud he was of his wife, but he looked like he was talking through gritted teeth.  It felt unnatural and as though the scenes had been manipulated. Yes, we know all of them are, but these looked more so.  Elsewhere, Kandi and Todd chatted about the whole fiasco with NeNe and the rape comment. Kandi wanted NeNe to tour with her, but she struggled to make a case for it.  Todd admitted that he thought it was definitely a joke, and alluded to the fact that the President of the United States makes terrible comments all the time and he’s still the President.  Maybe NeNe will get to stick around for the tour after all.  Then there was Sheree, who was pressing ahead with her relationship with Tyrone aka the man in prison. Her daughter was not amused and lashed out with a string of words that gave Sheree food for thought.  How long will it take for Sheree to realize that the relationship could all be a sham? In any case, we’re glad Sheree has a storyline this season, but she can do so much better.  What did you think of all the action? Sound off below.  The Real Housewives of Atlanta continues Sundays on Bravo. View Slideshow: 14 Shadiest Real Housewives Hook-Ups of All-Time

Joy-Anna Duggar Confesses: My Parents’ Religion Is Too Strict!

Back in May of 2017,  Joy-Anna Duggar married Austin Forsyth . Just nine months later, Joy welcomed her first child . Needless to say, at just 20 years old, Joy is already eagerly following in the footsteps of her mother and older sisters by devoting her life to marriage and motherhood in accordance with her family’s religious views. But it seems she wasn’t always thrilled with the prospect of keeping the faith. In a newly released preview of tonight’s episode of Counting On , Joy is seen giving a heartfelt speech the rehearsal dinner for Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell’s wedding . It seems Joy and Joe share a special bond, and he apparently helped through an extraordinarily difficult period in her youth. As she reveals in her speech, Joy had some serious doubts about the religious beliefs that shaped her upbringing, and Joe was both a guiding light and a source of love and support during this uncertain time. “I can’t speak and cry. It’s terrible. First of all I want to say that Joe, I’m so thankful for you,” Joy says in her speech. “You really did change my life.” Joy goes on to reveal that her crisis of faith made her feel like an outsider at times, and Joe was always quick to remind her that she still belongs: “Just through my teen years, I think I was having a hard time taking my parents’ faith as my own and you really befriended me as an older brother, and [were] the first in the morning to say ‘I love you’ and ‘What are you going to do today?’ and stuff like that,” she says. “It just really meant a lot to me.” It doesn’t sound like Joy ever fully abandoned her parents’ belief system or explored other faiths, but this is the first time that one of Michelle and Jim Bob’s children has admitted to harboring doubts about the beliefs that dominate all aspects of life in the Duggar home. It’s a reminder that Joy was once the Duggar deemed most likely to “break away” and pursue a life far from her parents’ home that looked very different from the environment she was raised in. A tomboy who seemed more interested in sports and the outdoors than marriage and family, Joy seemed to have little interest in pursuing the life that had been assigned to her at birth according to her gender. Needless to say, these days she’s given up the struggle and seems happy in her pious, domestic life she’s built for herself. Her parents are likely thrilled – but it’s a disappointing turn of events for many Duggar fans. Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most controversial family.

#MarchForOurLives: Students And Activists All Around The World Gather For Some Gotdamn Gun Reform

Image via John Lamparski/ALEX EDELMAN/AFP/Alex Wong/Getty The March For Our Lives Today is the day, a historic day, the March For Our Lives . Today hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of students and activists descend upon Washington, D.C. and literally all around the world to raise their voices against the ineptitude of the federal government to construct sensible gun control reform. They don’t want to die anymore. They don’t want to lose their friends, classmates, sons, daughters, cousins, aunts, uncles, or anyone else who has lost their life to a crazed school shooter carrying a fully automatic AR-15 assault rifle. Justin Cooper is the chaperone to 250 students traveling from Pittsburgh, he spoke to CNN about strength of this youth-lead campaign: “Our youth are being confronted with these shootings and all the violence, and I think they’re looking at it and saying most people support some kind of change … but yet our laws don’t quite seems to be working with the people,” Cooper said. “So the youth of this country said, ‘Enough is enough.’ The kids are running all this.” The student survivors from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida will be front-and-center in D.C. as well as back at a sister rally that is being held at the school. “They don’t know what it’s like to be 20 feet from an AR-15,” Parkland survivor Alfonso Calderon, 16, told students at a Washington charter school this week, referring to US lawmakers… “Every single day you wake up and it might be a thought in your head, ‘I might die today,’ ” Calderon told the students. We have a feeling that when its all said and done today there will be MILLIONS who take the streets in protest. You can watch a live stream of the D.C. march below. Despite the criticism of children these days, they are really the future. This march is evidence that they’ve been taught well. They are leading the way. Continue reading →

Catelynn Lowell: Roots of PTSD Finally Revealed?

In the past two years, Catelynn Lowell has checked into rehab three times. While her journey toward greater emotional stability and mental health certainly hasn’t been an easy one, it’s yielded trendous results, making Lowell both a more fulfilled person and a spokesperson for those battling mental illness. Earlier this week, Lowell revealed that she’s been diagnosed with PTSD . “It’s panic disorder, PTSD – I like to call myself a trauma survivor – and it’s depression, but it’s co-occurring depression or something like that,” Lowell revealed in a candid interview. “It will go away and it will come back with the panic disorder.” Catelynn didn’t go into detail regarding the roots of her trauma, but in the past, she’s spoken at length about her difficult childhood. Lowell’s father, David, helped shed new light on her painful past this week in a revealing interview with Radar Online: “I don’t do drugs or drink so mostly it was when we had to move for my job when she was 12,” David told the site about the painful period during which he and his daughter were separated by distance. “Kids don’t realize that parents have to do whatever it takes to pay support and insurance for their children, even if it means moving to do so.” David added that his children were well cared-for financially, but said they may not have always received the emotional support they needed:  “I was never a deadbeat dad. One thing I’ve always done is take care of my kids,” he claimed. “That we both had a hard time dealing with. But we called frequently.” David went on to reveal that he suspects Catelynn’s mother didn’t always provide a stable home life: “What her mother did with the money – many different boyfriends and moving all the time – I couldn’t say  As for how Catelynn is faring following her latest rehab stint, David his daughter is in a “wonderful” state of mind. “She’s doing her aftercare like a champ,” he tells Radar. “I did go with her to a holistic approach therapist. I believe this is the first time she’s tried it. It involves breathing techniques, aromatics, and of course, talking.” Closing on a hopeful night, David adds: “I think she’s won the battle, but staying humble about it. It’s a lifelong affliction.” Watch Teen Mom OG online for more of Catelynn’s courageous struggle. View Slideshow: Catelynn Lowell Checks into Rehab AGAIN: What Happened?!

Change Of Heart? After Calling 2Pac ‘Boring,’ Lil Xan Plays His Music At A Concert

Source: Erika Goldring / Getty Rapper Lil Xan found himself in a funky situation this past month when he made a statement many folks thought was an offense to rap music. In an interview with Revolt, Xan gave 2Pac a “clout” rating of “2′ and he said that the late rapper made “boring music.”   To say Xan caused an uproar in the rap world would be an understatement. Waka Flocka  banned him from hip hop…   …and a group of high schoolers reportedly chased him out a Del Toco for his statements, causing the police to escort him to his car.   At one point, Xan even had to hop on Twitter to clear the air. Tupac is a legend I just grew up listening to other artists lol sue me https://t.co/vOTsVaSpDd — LIL XAN (@lilxanfuhyobih) March 16, 2018 Apparently folks were still salty because now it seems like Xan is trying to end the controversy once and for all. At a recent show in Pomona, California, the 21-year-old rapper blasted 2Pac and Dr. Dre ‘s “California Love” for all the crowd to recite. Granted, Xan barely knew the rap verses himself….or even the chorus…but I guess a couple of lines count, right? Lil Xan performing California Love by Tupac today in Pomona California . Did we forgive him yet or na? pic.twitter.com/NkmpqLi1n9 — DJ Akademiks (@IamAkademiks) March 23, 2018 Does this mean Lil Xan is now “un-canceled?” 2Pac stans let us know!

Matt Baier to MTV: Let Farrah Abraham Do Porn!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Farrah Abraham has been fired from   Teen Mom OG for her continued involvement in the world of adult entertainment. Many have defended the controversial star’s right to supplement her income however she sees fit. Many more, however, have applauded MTV for the decision. Of course, that seems to have less to do with porn and more to do with the fact that Farrah is just generally not very well-liked. Abraham is not without allies on social media but her castmates seem to have generally adopted a “good riddance” stance. That’s why word of Farrah’s new ally is so unexpected. It’s been almost a year since Amber Portwood and Matt Baier called off their engagement , but the disgraced former fiancee is still questioned about his feelings regarding the show. Baier recently appeared on Radar Online’s Teen Mom podcast, where he was asked for his thoughts about MTV’s decision to cut ties with Farrah. “I think it’s wrong,” Baier said bluntly. He went on to make a valid (if somewhat naïve) point about MTV’s hypocrisy: “Farrah was originally taken off the show for doing porn. Then she was brought back onto the show. It’s not like the porn was a new thing,” he said. “Is the message: We’re going to bring her back because we had potentially dipping ratings? Now that we feel our ratings are strong, we no longer approve of how she lives her life? I don’t think that’s right.” Baier wasn’t on the show very long, but certainly long enough to get an understanding of how reality TV works. Obviously, Farrah was brought back to assist with declining ratings and kicked to the curb when producers began to feel she was more of a liability than an asset. That’s how it always works, Matt! Farrah is obviously a nightmare to work with.  She was only brought back because her insanity made her a ratings magnet. With time, however, viewers started to get as sick of her schtick as producers always were. Farrah’s been doing porn for years. MTV and Viacom only started objecting to it when they needed a reason to fire her. Now, Farrah is suing her former bosses, but she probably doesn’t have a leg to stand on. All they have to do is convince the judge that her live-stream sex shows were a detriment to the show’s reputation (which shouldn’t be hard to do), and it’s case closed. We understand what Matt is saying, but he’s delusional if he thinks MTV will ever regret giving Farrah the boot. Watch Teen Mom OG online to relive Farrah’s highlights and many, many lowlights from her time on the show. View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham: Hey! Look, Maci Bookout is Doing Porn Too!
