In response to Trump's "MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR" tweet, Trevor Noah and Stephen Colbert released For Your Consideration ads for their shows, with the latter even buying a billboard in Times Square at the corner of 42nd and 8th.
We've been looking at a lot of remakes, sequels and adaptations, so now it's time to look at true originals. From the avant garde to the origins of film itself, it's time to look at 5 of the most original films ever made.
2 out of 5
- Holy Motors - Leo Carax - Dog Star Man - Stan Brakhage
PTA won best screenplay at the New York Film Critics Circle and wasn't there to attend. He gave a written acceptance speech to Lesley Manville (who is in his new movie) to read out.
In the speech PTA expressed his admiration for 2017's breakout star, Tiffany Haddish, calling her his "hero" and stating that he wants to cut to the front of the line of directors who want to cast her in their movies.
He also gave out his number which is an 818 number.
After BTS performed at New Years Rockin’ Eve, many confused but intrigued Americans took to social media to ask who the boys were, what language they were speaking, and confessed to being captivated by their strong performance. On the flip side, xenophobic and racist, MAGA trash showed their stank asses as usual. What else is new?
Are you as confused too? Don't worry I gotchu fam! BTS is a self-made, artist-driven 7-member South Korean pop/hiphop group. Unlike most other kpop acts, BTS actually write and produce their own music and contribute to choreographies/concepts. It seems like these days, BTS, who have a dedicated legion of fans called “Army”, are everywhere. If you’re on the Internet, it’s hard to avoid arguably the strongest fandom for a current musical act.
How have they amassed such dedicated Army? From endless content, fan interaction, talent, genuine and fun personalities, their CONNECTED UNIVERSE (MCU who?) that drive endless fan theories and interest, to their powerful social messages in their music that anybody can resonate with, BTS have truly made Army (Averaging 30) part of their story.
They also just so happen to have an extremely strong American fan base and the music industry has taken notice. There isn’t a day that goes by where Billboard, Grammys, MTV, and other famous U.S. media don’t report on their every move. 2017 was a landmark year for them that saw them break into the U.S. market and achieve a top 30 hit (Stream Mic Drop on Spotify lol). 2018 looks to be even crazier and they show no signs of stopping.
It's time to introduce you to the men you'll be hearing a lot about. Check out member profiles below.
What’s good ONTD? Do you have a bias (favorite member?), fav videos, fav theories, fav songs... look idgaf let’s just talk about the kings. New and prospective Army get in here lol.
Did the departure of Kathy Griffin leave a big impact to the ratings of CNN? Did Mariah Carey's performance shine the light for a ratings win for ABC? Is Steve Harvey still a draw for viewers? How did FOX News fare on their own NYE special?

We’ve all heard about the suicide footage, but it turns out this nobody also filmed himself being incredibly racist and disrespectful while in Japan. Watch as he galavants in a conical hat while wearing a kimono. Did I mention he starts throwing pokeballs and *Gordon Ramsay voice* RAW fish at random Japanese strangers? (Yes it’s that bad).
Jesse Williams is still in Brazil, and yesterday he partook of a favourite activity of gringos and toured a slum in Rio de Janeiro.
The actor chose Tavares Bastos, which is one of the safest due to heavy police presence, and besides his posse (incl. models Grace Mahary and Melodie Monrose, and Dynasty actor Sam Adegoke) appeared to be accompanied by two bodyguards.
Jesse took pictures of garbage on the street, of broken down cars, of people who live in the slum, filmed random dogs, went inside a small bakery and filmed people buying bread. His model friends posed in front of dilapidated buildings. He also saw some boys playing a football match and, in the presence of paparazzi, took off his shirt and joined them in the game, later taking a picture with the underprivileged boys.
Also that day, Jesse took a million photos with fans, had a snack at the famous Confeitaria Colombo (a café), went to a rehearsal of the legendary Beija Flor de Nilópolis samba school, and had dinner at the swanky Gero restaurant at Ipanema.

tylerposey58It’s nice to stick up for the people you admire and stand by their side through good and bad but you have to know when someone isn’t being a good role model and when to walk away.

The View without Whoopi Goldberg but with the additions of Ana Navarro and Paula Faris talk about Trump these past 24 hours and the book.

Taylor Swift's Reputation tour, fan's aren't ...Ready For It. Ticket sales are under-performing and her latest album Reputation took a 79% dip with second week sales. Swift hiked up prices for her tour and that was the end game for fans, who are simply not here for the alt right icon's greediness. Forbes added that people aren't exactly jumping at the chance to see Swift due to her lackluster showcase at the recent Jingle Ball Tour reviewing her set saying "Swift and her backup dancers work through the lazily choreographed number with robotic stiffness, washed out by harsh red lighting and thick smoke. Her voice is drowned out by a backing track, but it barely matters because the song’s monotone melody offers no room for vocal acrobatics anyway. It’s a claustrophobic, half-baked performance".

Tonya Harding, ex-skater and star of Tru TV's "World's Dumbest", is currently riding that publicity tour for I, Tonya.
She sat down with Amy Robach to discuss the infamous 1994 attack and controversy that ensued. She stated "I knew something was up." and that she felt like she was being used as a pawn. She says she never asked ex-husband Jeff Gillooly to go through with the plot to attack Nancy. Gillooly however, claims the opposite as does most of America.
She also has not spoken to her mother Lavona since 2002. They are estranged, and Lavona recently admitted she hates that Allison Janney is portraying her, she has no plans on seeing the film, and she just wants to see her grandchild.

WINNING OVER HIRAM LODGE — Amidst preparations for the town’s annual Picken’s Day festivities, Jughead interviews Toni’s grandfather and learns some shocking details about Riverdale’s history (it's probably going to be messy af and ill thought out like everything else on the show).
In an attempt to get closer to Hiram (either because he's still spying for the Feds or to make up after getting caught being a snitch), Archie tries out for the Riverdale wrestling team after learning of Hiram’s love of the sport. And promptly gets flipped on his ass and put in a choke hold by Hiram himself.
Meanwhile, Betty unearths some dark secrets about her brother Chic. (They probably just find out that he was a gigolo, but she also wants to know if he's "dark" like her)
Veronica and Josie clash as they prepare for their Picken’s Day performance, and hopefully the Pussycats will get to perform on their own, but they probably won't get to.
Directed by Greg Araki and written by Greg Murray and Devon Turner. According to their respective IMDB pages, these are their first ever writing credits ever.

ABC's 20/20 did a feature on the infamous case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, a girl who was essentially used as a human guinea pig by her vile mother, Dee Dee, who suffered from Munchhausen by proxy. An HBO documentary on the case aired last year.
Her mother forced her to get multiple surgeries and other things such as forcing her to use a wheelchair. She also met celebrities such as Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Blake Shelton, and Miranda Lambert.
Dee Dee's scheme fooled almost everyone. She accepted gifts, cash, fundraiser money, and other things.
Gypsy and her boyfriend conspired to have Dee Dee murdered. She was found stabbed to death in her home in 2015. Gypsy confessed and was sentenced to serve prison time. She has admitted that she feels the freest that she has ever felt in a long time.
