Kim Kardashian Is Building a Backyard Basketball Court for Kanye West

As it turns out, the $110,000 Kim Kardashian spent to rent out Staples Center in Los Angeles for Kanye West's birthday was just the beginning!

When the couple got home, 'Ye had another basketball-themed surprise waiting for him. Kim had commissioned a court to be built in their own backyard.

According to TMZ, the 7,000 square foot expansion to their Hidden Hills mansion also has a something special for Kim, too, a glam room...because of course!

Basically, it sounds like KimYe's crib will be the place all of their kids' friends will want to hang out at. In addition to the basketball court, the house has 3.5 acres of land to run around on, TWO pools (because one just isn't enough) and an insane home movie theater that gets movies the same day they come out in theaters.

Oh, and it has its own vineyard, too, for when mommy and daddy have their friends over. It's pretty much our dream house, except that it's about $20 million out of our price range.

Jennifer Lawrence Greg Lenz hot bodyguardIs it hot outside or is just Jennifer Lawrence's new bodyguard? Our favorite Hunger Games heroine has hired herself some serious eye candy to guard her famous body, and he's also an animal lover. Swoon!

Meet Greg Lenz, J. Law's new hunky bodyguard, who was spotted towing the starlet while she was apartment hunting in Tribeca with her pup in his arms this week. All together now: aww! "Jennifer likes the hot ones!" an insider tells UsWeekly of her handsome recent hire. Yeah, we can't blame her...the girl has good taste, and if you have to have a guy follow you around 24/7, may as well make sure he's easy on the eyes.

So does her current Coldplay boyfriend Chris Martin have some competition from her new dude? Not to worry. A source tells Us that Greg is actually married.

NAACP Leader Rachel Dolezal Pretended to Be Black, Outed as White

This is a mess.

Rachel Dolezal, who happens to be an adjunct professor of Africana Studies at Eastern Washington University, was elected president of the Spokane NAACP last year. She is also is a white woman who has been "falsely presenting herself as black for years," according to The Seattle Times.

The civil rights leader's actual ethnic background is "Swedish, Czech and German" with some "faint traces" of Native American heritage. As you can see, there's no African American part of that description. Still, Rachel reportedly claimed that her father was black, even posting pictures on the NAACP Spokane Facebook page with her so-called African-American father.
As it turns out though, her birth certificate lists her biological parents as Ruthanne and Lawrence Dolezal - who told KXLY Thursday Rachel is their daughter and they are both white. Ruthanne went on to tell the Seattle Times her daughter began to "disguise herself" in 2006 or 2007, after her family adopted four African-American children.



"It's very sad that Rachel has not just been herself," Ruthanne said. "Her effectiveness in the causes of the African-American community would have been so much more viable, and she would have been more effective, if she had just been honest with everybody." This is very true. It's not an anomaly to have someone who is not black teach African-American studies or work for the NAACP. The fact that Rachel deceived people about who she is is what has everyone up in arms.

In a KXLY video, a reporter can be seen asking Rachel if her dad is an African-American man. "I don't know what you're implying," she responded. When he asked her if she was African American, she said, "I don't understand the question." Then, she walked away from the interview.


When she was contacted by the Times, Rachel avoided directly answering the question again, saying, "I feel like I owe my executive committee a conversation," adding, it's a "multi-layered" issue. "That question is not as easy as it seems," she said after being contacted at Eastern Washington University, "There's a lot of complexities ... and I don't know that everyone would understand that."

Fifth Harmony's Lauren Jauregui: Haters Attacked After Pic With Louis Tomlinson

lauren jauregui louis tomlinson dating rumors hatersWhen a pic of Fifth Harmony's Lauren Jauregui and One Direction's Louis Tomlinson together in the back of a car landed online, the inevitable dating rumors started to fly. So did the hate. As these things go, anyone who even remotely looks to be enjoying a 1D guy's company comes under fire from the fandom.

The hate is real. And totally unfair, really.

Lauren recently explained to The Sun (via Press Party) how any dating rumors about her and Louis are completely off base and that the 1D star was really helping her out when she landed in a bit of a tough situation.

She explained: "My phone died and I had no way of getting home so Louis said, 'Jump in a car with me.' "We got to know each other that night, it was the first time we really hung out. And he was nice enough to take me back."

Of course, that now famous photo of them together got people talking - and saying some pretty horrible things. Lauren noted, "The amount of hate I got for that picture...I got a slew of things like, 'You're a s**t, you're ugly, you're fat'..."

Despite the hate, Lauren has a pretty great attitude about dealing with it, explaining, "I won't allow people who have no idea what's going on to dictate situations. I know all the people that say that are little girls behind a screen who are jealous of the fact that I'm in a car with Louis. It's clearly coming from a place of hatred."

Preach.

This Is What Selena Gomez Thought of Ariana Grande's Dating Double Standard Rant

Selena GomezLast week Ariana Grande went off after she finally had enough with all the dating rumors and lies floating around about her. While some people thought she sipped on some cray-girl tea that morning, or just simply woke up on the wrong side of the bed, her fellow female singers stepped up to have her back, and admitted that her words were spot on. They must've been able to relate like no other...

If anyone knows about being labeled someone's girlfriend...it's Selena Gomez. So we weren't surprised when we saw her reach out to and praise Ari online shortly after her double standards post. Yes! Preach, girl! What's more awesome than girls sticking up for each other...especially when it comes to a topic like this?

Sel wasn't the only female singer to defend Ariana. Her BFF Taylor Swift was the first one to chime in shortly after Ari posted. You can read what she had to say about the whole situation, here.

Perrie Edwards Says a Psychic Predicted Romance With Zayn Malik!

Perrie Edwards psychic predicted Little Mix success Zayn MalikThis is one of the more wild things we've heard about Little Mix - and it's all totally true. LM's Perrie Edwards recently revealed that a psychic predicted her success...and her soulmate, Zayn Malik. This psychic sounds like the real deal.

Okay, we don't normally buy into more than a casual belief of our horoscope (What? Everyone can find some truth nugget in a horoscope, right? Just us?...Moving on...). This is so spot-on though, it's kind of eerie.

Perrie recently told Newcastle's Metro radio about the psychic's predictions, explaining, "She was like 'You're going, you're filling out an application for something' and I was like 'What?' Then my mum told me that she'd written me out an X Factor leaflet and I was like 'wow!'"

Perrie added, "Literally everything that she told me it's all been bang on," including finding love with Zayn. Chills, right?

Perrie explained that the psychic said she would "end up" with Zayn, explaining, "She told me about everything; what he looked like, what his personality was going to be like. Then before she left she said bye to everyone and turned around and looked at me and said 'Good Luck'. It was amazing."

Mind = blown.

Caitlyn Jenner Looks Amazing During First Public Outing

Caitlyn Jenner looked absolutely stunning on her Vanity Fair cover, but some of the outfits weren't exactly your everyday wear. We couldn't wait to see the more casual side of Cait and when the 65-year-old stepped out in her jeans in Los Angeles this week, she looked amazing.

This was Caitlyn's first public outing since her Vanity Fair cover was released and when she did go out for the first time, she was a woman on a very important mission. She was actually meeting with a group of young clients at the LGBT Center's Youth program in Los Angeles.

"It was a small group," a source exclusively told E! News. "They talked to Caitlyn about their experiences, what they were going through and how the Center is helping them."

They said Caitlyn was really friendly, brought clothes for them and even referenced Miley Cyrus' visit to the center in January.

Cait recently posted the pic below to her Instagram page of herself and some girlfriends with the caption, "Learn from those who have walked the path before you. #TransIsBeautiful #LivingOurTruth#JustTheBeginning." Looks like what goes around comes around, as Cait is now returning the favor and helping others out.

Kylie Jenner Goes Makeup-Free for Grocery Run With Tyga

Kylie Jenner and rumored boyfriend Tyga hit up a local grocery store in Calabasas on Wednesday and Ky was looking gorgeous, per usual, and she didn't even have a drop of makeup on.

With all that camo on, Kylie might have evaded the paparazzi, but Calabasas is kind of Kardashian-ville, so they don't miss much that goes on there.

Of course, the stylish 17-year-old made sure to match her bucket hat to her sweats (always match your bucket hat to your sweats) and in case you're wondering, those aren't just any sweat pants like you or I would wear. Those are $300 - well, $292 to be exact - Bape sweats.

For his part, Tyga was rocking a pretty casual look, too. We're not gonna lie, we kinda like this. Whenever we've seen them together, they're dressed to the nines, so it's nice to see that they have a chill side, too.

Barbie Finally Bought a Pair of Flats

It's all about the details when you're trying to Find Your Style! #BeSuper

A photo posted by Barbie (@barbie) on

You know that feeling you get after a long night out, when you finally kick your heels off? Those deathtrap stilettos angrily blast across the room, and your feet joyfully regain circulation. And that's just after a few hours!

Crank up that stiletto usage to 50 years - straight - and you may begin to understand the relief Barbie is feeling right now. After a lifetime tottering around in high heels, the doctor, teacher, horseback rider, model and everything-else-under-the-sun, is finally able to go about her business in flats.

#Barbie #BeSuper

A photo posted by Barbie (@barbie) on

Mattel's 'Fashionistas' line of Barbies have adjustable ankles, which can slip into a pair of T-strap flats or Adidas-like sneaks just as easily as a set of sky-high stilettos. The dolls reflect real-life street styles young girls actually see on the sidewalks around them.

(You mean female doctors aren't rushing through the E.R. in pointy white pumps?)

There are 23 versions of the doll with 14 facial structures, including 18 eye colors, eight skin tones, 22 hair styles and 23 colors.

The move shifts the style-centered doll into a more realistic model for the girls who play with her. Though her body proportions might have a ways to go, and she'll probably be off the guest list at Cannes, we think Barbie is certainly getting off on the right foot.

'Saved By the Bell' Star Lark Voorhies Marries Man She Met on Facebook

Los Angeles Haunted HayrideRemember Lisa Turtle from Saved By the Bell? Her new marriage has just about everyone talking.

Lark Voorhies tied the knot with music engineer Jimmy Green in Las Vegas in April, according to TMZ, with the nuptials raising eyebrows when it was revealed she met her husband on Facebook about a year ago (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Jimmy told the site he and Lark have already had two weddings - a commitment ceremony April 1 and a Vegas chapel ceremony April 30 - but, they still have more in store. The newlyweds are also planning a big wedding next year with friends and family, and are currently looking for a home together.
Celebrity Sightings In Los Angeles - March 25, 2015As far as Lark's post-Saved By the Bell career, it doesn't look like she's been in any projects since 2012 (aside from a reality TV segment appearance last year) and she was noticeably absent from the "Saved By the Bell" reunion sketch on "The Tonight Show" in February. "Lark would have loved to be part of the Jimmy Fallon skit," her publicist told E! News at the time. "However, due to an intense work schedule she was not available."

It's not clear if she'll be returning to acting any time soon. Her rep told "Access Hollywood," the Bayside High alum wants to shift her "creative focus" when it comes to her career and "make some music" with her new hubby.

Sorry Screech. Lark is officially off the market.

Kylie Jenner Wears Tyga's Underwear in Sexy Snapchats

Kylie Jenner is one supportive girlfriend! Not only is she wearing Tyga's underwear, but she's promoting it to the world on her Snapchat. The 17-year-old shared a series of seductive pics of her rocking Crisp boxer briefs from the line her 25-year-old rapper beau started last year.

Instead of adding text over her sexy shot, she simply put the purple devil emoji. In case you're curious how much it costs to get into Tyga's skivvies, it's actually pretty reasonable. According to the Crisp website, they're less than $12 a pair!

Repping his clothing line isn't the only way Ky's been showing her man support. She also changed her Instagram name to "King Kylie" to be similar to his, which is "King Gold Chains." Wearing your guys' underwear and matching Instagram names? Sounds like things are pretty serious between these two!

This Is My Last Day of Work Before My Gender-Confirming Surgery

Hi Readers,

My surgery date is almost here. Only four days are left before my life changes forever. And while it's a huge relief to know that it's finally happening, getting to this point hasn't been easy by any means. The reality is that transgender people have to continually jump through hoops in order to have access to the healthcare we need to improve our lives and self-images. My story is no different.

When I first brought up the idea of undergoing Facial Feminization Surgery and Breast Augmentation Surgery to my parents, I was extremely nervous about their reaction. They told me that they wanted nothing more than for me to feel happy and content in my body, but understandably had many concerns as well.

Is it safe? Are there complications? These questions I had answers to. I had researched the procedures extensively and could confidently say that they are generally considered safe. I also knew that with any surgery, there are risks as well. These are risks that I'm willing to take.

What is the cost? Does insurance provide coverage? I wasn't sure what to tell my parents. No amount of research could provide me with an answer either. I knew that the cost of the surgeries could range anywhere between $20,000 - $50,000, but I was uncertain about how much of the total amount we would have to pay out of pocket. Navigating the intricate maze that is the American health insurance system is a feat for anyone, let alone someone who is transgender and is perceived by some as less than a person, at every level of society. Although the transgender community has fervently argued that gender-confirming procedures are medically necessary, I was about to learn that insurance companies generally consider them to be purely cosmetic.

After submitting various scenarios to my insurance company, I kept getting denied coverage. It was disheartening to have my feelings about my own body be invalidated by people who had never walked a day in my shoes. What did they know about being stuck in a body and a life that felt completely wrong? It also made me think about all of the trans people in the world who will never be able to correct the disconnect between their bodies and minds because of the exorbitant costs of gender-confirming surgeries. And with all of the buzz surrounding Caitlyn Jenner, the financial aspect of transitioning seems to be a hot topic.

When I first saw Caitlyn looking drop-dead-gorgeous on the cover of Vanity Fair, I was speechless. She is a vision, through and through. And because I am going to the same surgeon who did her incredible work, I was even more invested in Caitlyn's story. But I also think it's important as a socially-conscious and politically-minded individual to acknowledge how privileged she was to be able to undergo what she felt was necessary for her happiness. I, myself, have to constantly remind myself how fortunate I am to be able to do these surgeries as well. Thankfully, I have parents and family members who have agreed to help me along this journey. This does not escape me for a moment. Many transgender individuals face nothing but rejection and stigmatization, even from those closest to them. And until systems and institutions of power begin to truly understand and acknowledge our experiences, this tragic reality will persist. I hope that sharing my story can make even a small difference.

Caitlyn Jenner looks gorgeous on the cover of Vanity Fair! So happy for her 󾬙

Posted by Serena Daniari on Monday, June 1, 2015


I want to thank all of you for following my story. (You can find my first two entries here, in case you missed them.) Today is my final day of work before my surgery. I am unbelievably fortunate to be part of a company that is willing to be flexible around my recovery schedule. So many components have aligned in order to make this surgery a possibility. It truly feels meant to be. I will be sure to keep you all posted through my recovery with photos so you can track my progress.

Wish me luck!

This $6 Beauty Line Proves You Can Be Flawless on the Cheap

karelen beautyIt's no surprise that girls are starting to pay attention to the ingredients in their beauty products. With so many harmful additives out there, we have to celebrate whenever we find a product that is not only free of unnatural ingredients, but also doesn't test on animals! We already love the cruelty-free and ridiculously affordable e.l.f. brand for their $1 eyeliners and lipsticks, and now, we're hip to another line of beauty products that are full of healthy ingredients - and also won't break your bank.

Karelen is a Florida-based company that prides itself on making inexpensive beauty products free from glycols, parabens, mineral oils and petrolatum, and they never test on animals. It just launched a new beauty line with some serious smell-good skin and hair products. I took the plunge and tried out a few of these products to see if they can live up to the cult-like hype that e.l.f. has with its makeup. There are not a lot of other affordable beauty lines out there that follow the same quality standards as Karelen (believe me, I've looked), so here's a roundup of some of my favorites.

Body Butter


karelen aloe product lotion
This is by far my favorite product. The pump-in-jar feature is pretty clever and easy to use, and the lotion instantly made a recent sunburn I experienced feel about a million times better. The Aloe There scent was my favorite with a sweet finish that made me smell pretty darn good for the day. And for $6, you get a generous 12-oz. size. I keep this on my desk at work now for maximum use.

Bath & Shower Gel


karelen body bath shower gel
The Luscious Coconut Bath & Shower Gel ($6) is especially rad, though it doesn't lather up as well as a cream-based body wash. The smell makes up for it (trust me). The results make you feel squeaky clean.

Shampoo + Conditioner


karelen conditioner and shampoo
While the shampoo is a little on the thin side, when paired with the conditioner, this combo ($9 each) is great for all hair types. None of them made my hair feel heavy, which is a feat because I have crazy thick/colored hair. And the smell lasts through the next day, which is also a nice surprise.

Hair Masque


karelen avocado hair masque
Putting avocados in my hair was never on my radar, but the So Avocado-Liscious Hair Masque ($13) was a pretty fun thing to try. I have dyed hair, and this masque did a good job of making my locks feel less dry afterward. The scent isn't strong, so you won't be smelling like a California club sandwich for the rest of the day - in case you were worried.

Stylin'

karelen hair spray spritz detangler
My hair is thick. Really thick. Detangling products are always on my must-have list. The Aloe There! Detangler ($13) worked really well. I was able to get a comb through my dense mane with no issues, and for an added shine, I topped off with their Tea Tree Spritz ($11), which is good if you have dull or damaged hair.

Dry Oil


karelin dry oils for hair and body
This stuff is rad, y'all. It's a light oil infused with the oils of each main ingredient (like carrots and shea butter). It gives your hair and body a gentle glow, but doesn't go on filmy or thick like a lot of oils tend to. My fave is the Shea Your Way ($6) - it is soothing after a day at the beach.

Kylie Jenner Gives Kris a Major Instagram Shoutout

Kris Jenner In Paris -  June 11, 2015Kylie Jenner may be a typical teenager, which involves sometimes butting heads with your mom (as we've seen on Keeping Up With The Kardashians). At the end of the day, though, Kris Jenner is still Kylie's #Momgoals, which we didn't even know was a thing, but now that it is we love it because moms are awesome.

"Damn ma! I hope I look this good at ur fine age #momgoals," the 17-year-old captioned this split shot of her 59-year-old mom looking sexy as hell, if we're being totally honest. Werk, Kris!

Hey, if you've got it, flaunt it...and Kris has DEFINITELY got it!

We have to say, too, while we've spent so much time studying Kendall, Kylie, Kim, Khloe and Kourtney's style, we could be top scholars on the subject, Kris' style game is often overlooked and it is STRONG.

Seriously, it is quite possible that Kris could become our favorite new fashion muse.

This Is How Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris Make Their Relationship Work

Taylor Swift and Calvin HarrisTaylor Swift is pretty much the busiest person in the world right now, so how in the heck does she have time to boo love up on Calvin Harris and hold the fort down? Let's just say it involves a lot of dedication...and money!

An insider recently told E! News that the loved-up duo "are spending every free day they have together" before T.Swift continues on her sold-out world tour. She's currently on a tour break, and we have seen the proof of their hangouts all over her Instagram.

Don't think Tay doesn't see her man in-between her shows when they're going down, though. "Whenever she has a break in her tour, she flies on her private jet to meet up with him," the source shared, dishing that the two opt for low-key nights in "ordering takeout" and such.

"Taylor feels very safe and secure with Calvin so she usually doesn't have her bodyguard around if Calvin is over," they were told. "Sometimes she will leave for a few hours and go on a hike with friends or go to a business meeting, but they always meet up again later in the day."

We've all been there, and know that the first few months of dating are the best. It's totally the time you try to hang out the most...no matter what. So it makes sense that Tay and Cal are hanging out like whoa.

She actually kicks off the European leg of her tour on June 19 through the end of the month, and then on July 6 she is performing around the country until mid-December. Girl is bus-ay!

E!'s source added, "She is planning on having Calvin join her in certain cities and also will be bringing him to her beach house in Rhode Island."

Is Sally Hansen's Big Peel Off Base Coat a Miracle for Your Nails?

0

sally hansen big peel off base coatI'll admit it: I'm a nail polish hoarder. If you ever catch me in the wild without nail polish on, something is wrong. Since I spend all my money on coffee and hair dye, going to get my nails done on the reg isn't in my budget. And some of my favorite polishes are glitters - and we all know - we KNOW how annoying it is to get that stuff off our nails when it's time for a change.

So I was eager to try Sally Hansen's new product, the Big Peel Off Base Coat, which promises to not only help prevent the rough effect of textured polishes and removers on nails, but simplify the removal process in one swift movement. That's a tall order, y'all. But does it work? Here's what happened when I tried it.
sally hansen big peel off base coat insta-ombre
I was having a guest visit me from Portland for a few days, and I didn't have time to fuss with difficult nail polish applications/removals, so it was a great time to try out the base coat along with one of Sally Hansen's new Insta-Ombre polish in "Fuchsia-Nista."

The base coat was supposed to dry quickly in a "transparent finish," and it did live up to the quick part of the deal. However, I noticed that it clumped in parts of my nail beds and had to redo a couple nails. Anything beyond a thin layer makes this weirdness happen:
sally hansen peel off base coatAfter peeling that off and reapplying, the coat dried quickly as promised. The Insta-Ombre polish was a three-step, simple ordeal: Apply a coat all over the nail, then a second coat from mid-nail to tip, then a third coat to only the nail tip. Done and done.

While I don't really think the ombre was effective, the glitter was a pretty shade. My friend said the shade was "uneven" and didn't look like an ombre, and I agree. The next time I try the glitter ombre, I'll have to do more coats than just the suggested three.

According to the instructions, I should've been able to enjoy the polish/base coat until I was ready to take it off. However, I was very disappointed that it didn't turn out that way. Less than a day later, I noticed the edges were already chipping, and the chipping led to peeling.
sally hansen big peel off base coat insta ombre peeling
What a bummer, y'all! After making last-minute lunch plans, I rushed home and tried to peel off the rest of the polish. It didn't come off in "one swift movement," but it did come off easier than battling with the cruel nature of glitter + acetone remover. I was able to remove all remnants and paint my nails with a basic color, just in time to make it to my lunch date.
sally hansen big peel off base coat insta ombre removalWhile the Big Peel Off Base Coat is pretty handy, I can't say I'd use it if I want my look to last more than an evening without chipping. I was cool with the fact that my nails didn't feel wrecked after the glitter removal, and they looked pretty smooth. Overall I recommend it, especially for the fair price of $6 at your local drugstore.

Adam Lippes Target plaid collab
Target designer collab-loving fashionistas have a lot to look forward to in the coming months - not only will Eddie Borgo x Target be hitting stores next month, but ICYMI, the retailer just announced a second collaboration for this fall: Adam Lippes for Target.

The collection is going to be a part of what Target calls an upcoming "Epic. Plaid. Takeover." in its stores this fall, which will even include things like plaid Band-Aids and Coke cans. Adam will be creating over 50 items inspired by the pattern, including the usual apparel and accessories along with some more surprising pieces. Come fall, you'll even be able to dress your dog in Adam Lippes x Target!
Adam Lippes designer
Lippes, who started his own line in 2007 with a relaunch in 2012, is an interesting designer for Target to tap for the collab. The designer is generally known and loved by his fans for his understated, subtle clothes like the floral dresses and cashmere sweaters featured in his Fall 2015 collection. It's worth noting that the designer did show some major love to plaid back in Fall 2014 - with insanely chic results.

Based on what we've seen from Adam Lippes on the runway, we're pretty psyched to see what he does for Target this fall - this is definitely one we'll be waiting in line for.

Emma Roberts and Evan Peters Call Off Their Engagement

Nicholas Kirkwood Dinner Hosted By Emma Roberts And Jake ShearsWe had a feeling something was up.

Emma Roberts has been popping up at events without her engagement ring on for months, most recently at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic last week...and now the reason is clear.

The American Horror Story star and her costar Evan Peters have called off their engagement, according to Just Jared. "Their three years together just ran its course," a source told the site. "They have so many great memories together but couldn't make it work in the end. The break-up was amicable - there was no drama whatsoever. Emma and Evan are even still friends!"
Sandro Paris Celebration At Chateau Marmont With Special Performance By PolicaFor all the times we saw Emma ringless, we were still holding out hope for these two to make it. Emma and Evan not only made a cute couple, but they also seemed to be really into each other. It's a little sad to hear about their split, but, at least, they're still cordial. With any break-up, that's always a plus.

Evan and Emma started dating in 2012 and got engaged over the holidays in 2014. At least we have the memories.



Best. Yearbook. Quotes. Ever. You Can Quote Us on That!

0
0

The graduating class of 2015 is really killing it with their yearbook quotes - they're making me wish I could go back in time and come up with something nearly as clever. There are so many ways you can make a yearbook quote stand out, but these four girls have really outdone themselves. Not only are their yearbook quotes funny and super sassy, they also remind us of social issues facing not only teens, but the entire world. Check out what each student had to say in their yearbooks that made their quote go completely viral:

1. Caitlyn Cannon, The LGBT Feminist

I want to high-five this high school senior so badly right now - she has officially made so many Ferris Bueller and Eleanor Roosevelt quotes look just so "been there, done that." Caitlyn Cannon of Oak Hills High School in California chose a quote that both spoke to her and highlighted a women's rights issue. Here's the epic quote:

Caitlyn, who identifies as "really gay" on her Twitter bio, is referencing the often-cited gender wage gap, which shows that, statistically, women make about three quarters of what men do overall. Caitlyn jokes that she'll never be able to find a woman as wealthy as a man because of it. She's also poking fun at certain women who claim that they "don't need feminism" because they're planning on just marrying rich, which is awful on pretty much every level. I wish I was that clever when I was in high school.

2. Fatima Abdel-Gwad, The Harry Potter Fan

Harry Potter quotes aren't anything new in the yearbook game, but 17-year-old senior Fatima Abdel-Gwad totally flipped the script with this amazing Harry Potter inspired quote. It'll definitely make you think of more than just Hogwarts.

Here's what Fatima wrote in her yearbook, which went viral after she shared it on her Tumblr account:

I hate having to explain to everyone why I wear a hijab, but if everyone must know: Voldemort has possessed me and his face is living on the back of my head.

The Harry Potter fan is referencing the moment when it is revealed that Quirinus Quirrell has been sharing his body with He Who Must Not Be Named, but she's also commenting on how people are less than sensitive when asking about her hijab, which she wears as a practicing Muslim. As we all know, people aren't always so polite when asking about something that they perceive as different, and from Fatima's yearbook quote it seems that she's gotten questions about what's up with her hijab too many times to count.

There's always a polite way to ask someone about their cultural background, and hopefully Fatima's quote reminds people to use tact when asking someone about their culture or religion... not to mention remind us that, no matter how different we are, we all love Harry Potter.

3. Chloe Cross, The Dress Code Crusader

Every day I seem to find another story of a ridiculous dress code standard imposed by schools that applies exclusively to the female population. The standards of dress for young women are worthy of some major Liz Lemon-esque eye roll action all on their own (really, what's so terrible about spaghetti straps?!) but the reasoning behind them is even worse. Girls who show their body are labeled a "distraction" to their other students, specifically boys who apparently can't help but stare at their classmates. Student Chloe Cross of San Mateo High School in California knows how ridiculous this idea is, and even called out her school's dress code in her epic yearbook quote.

Bye!

Pretty amazing, right? Chloe, who describes herself on social media as a "model/actress," already has over 1,300 likes on her Instagram picture of the yearbook quote, which is going viral for all the right reasons. Hopefully her sassy quote will remind everyone that it's never okay to police young women's bodies, especially for something as sexist as saying that their bodies will be a "distraction" for male students.

4. Rafika Alami, The Confidence Queen

Like Fatima, Rafika Alami also wears a hijab, a head scarf worn by some Muslim women. Rafika wears her hijab for religious and cultural purposes, but maybe there's another reason, too - at least, that's what she joked about for her yearbook quote. Here's what Rafika put underneath her senior portrait, which featured her wearing her hijab:

Apparently Rafika's hair is so magical that she can't not cover it up - it would be a huge distraction for the rest of her classmates that her fellow ladies wouldn't even get looked at. I also imagine that the reason for Rafika's quote was because people do ask her about her hijab pretty frequently, and it can't be fun to constantly field answers about something so personal. This is the perfect confident and sassy response to shut down the questions while still making us chuckle. I know you graduated, Rafika, but you've officially earned your final A+ for this quote.

Adam Levine Admits Wedding Crashing in "Sugar" Video Was Staged

Oh...you thought that was real?

Okay, so did we. Adam Levine admitted that some - probably most - of the wedding crashing scenes in Maroon 5's "Sugar" video weren't exactly authentic. "I do want to clear up something about the video," he told The National. "Half of the weddings we crashed and the other half were set up." This, as you might imagine, killed our dreams for our future weddings.

"We did that to cover our bases and to make sure we had all the footage," he continued. "I would say 65 percent of the video was real. It was crazy and a lot of fun." This isn't that much of a surprise, though, considering how perfect just about every wedding-crashing moment was captured.

While we doubt anyone would've said 'Is that Maroon 5? They've got to go' when the group popped up at several weddings and performed, there had to be at least one person in the room asking why there were shadows moving behind a huge white sheet that shielded the group from being discovered. Of course, none of that was in the video.
Still, Adam said back in January, shooting the video was "an out of body experience," adding, "I had no idea I would be affected by the overwhelming reactions we received from the couples and guests. Being able to create an unforgettable experience for several people was the highlight of it all."

Basically, he had an idea of how he would be affected, but, we still can't get enough of this song or the video. Here it is again for your enjoyment.
