Iggy Azalea withdraws under fire from gay celebration
Iggy Azalea withdraws under fire from gay celebration
New York (AFP) - Australian rapper Iggy Azalea has canceled a performance at a US gay pride celebration after criticism over past remarks that were seen as homophobic.
The June 13 concert in Pittsburgh was one of the few remaining dates on the calendar for the successful but controversial rapper after she recently called off a major tour.
Azalea apologized for her past comments, saying that she supported gay and transgender rights and did not want to distract from the event.
"I am a firm believer in equality. Unfortunately in the past as a young person, I used words I should not have," the 25-year-old said in a statement.
"The last thing I want is for something so carelessly said to be interpreted as reflective of my character," she said.
Azalea -- once a prolific user of social media before taking a rest following online feuds -- made a series of postings on Twitter before her rise to stardom that could offend gays and lesbians, as well as ethnic minorities.
In one of the tamer tweets, which she wrote in 2010 but has since been deleted, Azalea said: "When guys whisper in each other's ears I always think it's kind of homo."
A number of activists had protested Azalea's choice as a headliner for the event, called Pride in the Street, which is part of annual summer celebrations aimed at creating an inclusive environment for gay and lesbians in the former steel town. Bruce Kraus, the president of the Pittsburgh City Council, who is gay, had supported calls for a boycott. The Delta Foundation of Pittsburgh, the gay rights group that organizes the event, said it was trying to find an alternative headline act. "We're sorry that our headliner choice caused a division within our community but we believe that change happens through conversation," the foundation's board said in a statement. Azalea quickly amassed a fan base last year with songs including "Fancy," making her the first white woman to find major mainstream success through the traditionally African American art form. But she also came under fire, notably from rapper Azealia Banks, who accused Azalea of exploitation and inauthenticity by performing in an identifiably African American accent. Azalea recently canceled an already delayed tour of US and Canadian arenas, saying that she needed a "mental break."

Get ready to shell out your well-earned K stars to get the new designer wardrobes for your Kim Kardashian: Hollywood game avatars. On Sunday, the 34-year-old pregnant star previewed some of the newly available cleavage-baring outfits - including favored labels Balmain and Givenchy - featured in her mega successful video game app on her Instagram account. Mrs Kanye West regularly replicates her real life outfits for her fans' virtual characters to wear in Kardashianland and now has even immortalized her very own 21-day blonde moment.
Now is online
Kim seems to have loved her April 2015 issue of Elle France as she took two of the outfits from the spread and input them in her Hollywood game. 'One of my favorite Givenchy looks!' Kim captioned one of her latest Instagram photos on Sunday. The stepdaughter of Caitlyn Jenner posted side-by-side montages of herself wearing revealing Givenchy and Balmain looks comparing them to their identical animated versions. Kim even appears with her platinum blonde hairdo, which was very short-lived only keeping the lighter locks from March 5 to March 30.

Oh la la! Mariah Carey shows off a lot of leg in a sheer dress featuring a sexy thigh high split in Paris!
Oh la la! Mariah Carey shows off a lot of leg in a sheer dress featuring a sexy thigh high split in Paris!
Mariah Carey is a firm believer of if you got it, flaunt it. The star has coming under fire of late for being out of shape, but the 45-year-old put her haters in their place as she stepped out in Paris, France, on Sunday evening. The pop diva did not try to cover her curvy physique but instead celebrated it - and gave everyone a good look as she did - in a sheer dress with very racy split.
The star sashayed her way out of the Peninsula Hotel in a silk dress that, on first glance, appeared rather demure. However, on closer inspection the dress - which was ruched at the waist - was slightly see through but Mariah protected her modesty by wearing full black underwear. But the Touch My Body star was not done there, as she posed for pictures she repositioned the dress' skirt revealing a dramatic split.

Natasha Lyonne on ‘Orange Is the New Black,’ Her Soul Cycle Addiction, and Her Big Hair
Natasha Lyonne on ‘Orange Is the New Black,’ Her Soul Cycle Addiction, and Her Big Hair
Natasha Lyonne, the big-haired, sass-mouthed ’90s teen actor The Slums of Beverly Hills, American Pie turned 30-something ensemble member of the breakout Netflix TV hit Orange Is the New Black, thinks that OITNB’s rabid fans somehow can break the laws of time. “They manage to watch all 13 one-hour episodes in less than three hours,” she exclaims over the phone in her trademark New York rasp. “Sometimes less than 30 minutes!” Then, says Lyonne, they’re all over social media dissecting the new season, which Netflix releases all at once. (Season 3 premieres June 12.)
“I don’t understand if they have a certain relationship with a time machine,” Lyonne says of the die-hard fans of the show, based on Piper Kerman’s bestselling memoir about the crisscrossing stories (and juicy backstories) of a diverse group of inmates (black, white, Latino, hetero, lesbian, bi, transgender) in a minimum-security women’s prison a few hours outside New York City. “I picture them all looking like Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future and they all have that hairdo, sitting in their time machine pressing buttons while they’re streaming the show.”
But Lyonne, who can spin a hilariously cranky standup routine that could rival Jerry Seinfeld, Louis C.K., and Amy Schumer, also seems to understand that the speed-watching derives from the fact that OITNB is just, well, compulsively watchable. “It makes me feel a lot better about addiction issues I’ve had historically, now that I can see that everyone is an addict by nature,” she says. And for Lyonne, who was known mostly for wisecracking teen roles before she spent her 20s very publicly bottoming out on, then recovering from, heroin addiction, the show has rebooted her creativity and career, allowing her to show new depths of sarcasm, compassion, and vulnerability playing Nicky Nichols, a poor-little-rich-girl recovering addict with absent-mother issues. As most fans know, it’s a role based heavily on Lyonne’s own child-actor upbringing.
“The challenge for me doing the show is that it so closely mirrors things I went through,” she says. (Both Lyonne and Nichols nearly died from illnesses related to their drug use — in Lyonne’s case hepatitis C, which she is now cured of.) “I’m very much a hair’s breadth away from Nicky. Luckily I’m in the clear and my health is in great shape now. I’ve gone from being a junkie to an actress at Soul Cycle, and it’s hard to say which is more mortifying.” But that personal closeness to Nicky can make the role tricky to play. “I have a real desire to transmit the truth, but having that firsthand knowledge can be crazy-making because it’s never quite as dark on the show as I know it to be.”
Fortunately, says Lyonne, she has a creative outlet, acting, that Nicky, still serving time, has yet to cultivate. “What’s great about the arts is that people who are otherwise problematic can be put to great use if they channel themselves correctly. I had a crazy childhood, but having a career means that my family story isn’t my life’s only story. I made my own friends and family, and there’s no holiday when I’m not surrounded by friends. In adulthood I was able to re-parent myself and focus on what was great about my life rather than broken. And I thankfully didn’t end up serving jail time, which I think is going to forever color Nicky’s life.”
Of course, playing Nicky Nichols has also made Lyonne more famous — and recognizable — than she ever was before, which has put a slight crimp in her freedom as a longtime downtown Manhattan denizen, someone who’s been besties with Chloë Sevigny since the ’90s. “Before the show,” she says, “I would walk down the street to get a coffee and people would give me a look like Did I go to high school with her? They couldn’t place me. Now they definitely know who I am. I’m that prisoner from that TV show.”
One way she’s toned down the recognition factor a bit is to keep her signature mane of dirty-blond hair relatively groomed, in contrast to Nicky’s eternal rat’s nest. “Walking around with natural hair like Nicky’s in my real life is like wearing a neon sign, just begging for trouble. I play a sex-hungry lesbian character, so people on the street assume I’m just dying to talk to them and finger them. If I haven’t had my coffee yet, I don’t want to talk to you and I definitely don’t want to finger you.”
So now, to avoid those digital stimulation requests, Lyonne is careful to tone down the mane when out in public. “If I wear it washed and blown, I’m just some other New Yorker in black clothes,” she says. Not that she doesn’t slightly resent the effort it takes. “I don’t like that level of cleanliness in my life!” The upside, she says, is that “I’m probably always going to look better in person than I do on the show — even in my pajamas on the way to the gym, chain-smoking with yesterday’s mascara running down my face. It’s the opposite of being a Kardashian — my bar for public appearances is so low.”
Speaking of appearances, many OITNB fans were disappointed last season not to have more from Nicky — she took a backseat to the drama sparked by the arrival of evil den-mother Vee Parker, coming to the fore only when she nearly relapsed on heroin and when she faced off with Lea DeLaria’s Big Boo in a hysterical contest to see who could bag the most babes. Lyonne’s understandably mum about any Season 3 details that involve Nicky. “But I think in general that the show is going to go deeper this season,” she hints. “Jenji [Kohan, the show’s creator] has been saying it’s going to get more spiritual, which makes sense to me. All these characters are up against the wall, stripped of their freedom. We’ll definitely see more of Nicky. She’s all about her unavailable mother and her addiction, which is her Whack-A-Mole. She whacks down the heroin and up pops the sex, then the cookies.”
NOW IS ONLINE 
Meanwhile, Lyonne has some other projects in the works. She recently finished filming, with Sevigny, Antibirth, an indie psychological horror pic directed by their friend Danny Perez, who wrote the film for the two of them. Lyonne plays Lou, whose paranoia leads her to believe that her friend, played by Sevigny, is really out to get her. “It’s in the universe of Rosemary’s Baby or Repulsion, but takes itself less seriously,” says Lyonne. And she and Sevigny have smaller roles, as the mothers of teenage girls, in a cyberbullying scare flick, #Horror, directed by their friend Tara Subkoff, who once designed the Imitation of Christ label.
Lyonne is also interested in possibly transitioning from acting to writing and directing as she approaches her 40s. “All those years of having a wild existence and making it out alive left me with a lot of specific info that I’m happy to share with people,” she says. “It’s just about figuring out how I want to do that.” Beyond that, she’s simply hanging out happily with a new boyfriend, her little dog Root Beer, and, of course, her two veteran BFFs, Sevigny and actress Clea DuVall. “I’m having a very Chloë on the East Coast, Clea on the West Coast moment right now,” she says, adding that Sevigny, despite being “one of life’s great eccentrics,” is the more practical of the two of them, the one Lyonne relies on to fetch her keys when she leaves them behind somewhere. “She’s not only my best friend but the best person at being a friend. I’m never going to be alone in this world so long as I’ve got Chloë.”
It sounds as if, at 36, Lyonne’s learned to appreciate, rather than sabotage, her life — a blessing that Nicky, her TV counterpart, doesn’t yet have the freedom to attain. Lyonne would agree. “I’m determined to figure out how to enjoy my life,” she says. “When people say, Hey, how are you doing?, instead of giving them a neurotic monologue out of a Woody Allen movie about my entire state of mind, and they’re like, Listen, I gotta run, I’d love to figure out how to say, I’m doing great — and mean it.”

Monica Lewinsky Attends the Tony Awards In a Prom-Like Dress
Monica Lewinsky Attends the Tony Awards In a Prom-Like Dress
NOW IS ONLINE

This has been a big year for Monica Lewinsky who has reemerged into the public eye after decades of hiding. In March, she gave an impressive TED Talk, weaving her own story about the strenuous Clinton years, into the effects of cyberbulling and why it needs to stop. (Some sites, like this one, even called her a next-gen feminist.)
So we’re all for her and for girl power, but we do have some reservations about this red off-the-shoulder dress that she wore to Sunday night’s Tony Awards. For a woman her age (Lewinsky is in her 40s now), it reads just a bit too young. While the silhouette is lovely, the lace bodice, with white underlay, is a bit distracting. Also matching the red hot shade to her clutch was a slightly prom-y move (even more so if the shoes completed the trifecta). As it stands, the marble-colored slingbacks are also slightly off.
Lewinsky, who is very good friends with the evening’s cohost Alan Cumming, is probably there to support her friend. And she does look healthy even if the outfit is not totally our style. Perhaps, after years of hiding in shame, she’s ready to present a bold new version of herself. And for that we say, brava.

Hilary Duff keeps it casual in ripped overalls as she enjoys some rare time to herself at lunch!
With a youngster at home and many duties preparing for an upcoming album release, Hilary Duff's days are quite busy. So it's no wonder the 27-year-old was thrilled to find the time for a solo lunch in Los Angeles on Friday, and had a big smile on her face as she arrived for the meal. The former Disney star was casual and on trend in overalls that were ripped at the knee and high-top sneakers.
Her blonde tresses were styled in waves with a centre part and rested around her shoulders, while a light touch of eyeliner and a rosy lip completed the laid back look. During the excursion, the Cheaper By The Dozen actress tucked into a meal at Zinque restaurant in West Hollywood, and later she waved to onlookers as headed to her car. Not seen was her three-year-old son Luca, who was likely being watched by her ex Mike Comrie.
Orange Is The New Black star Taryn Manning looks worryingly thin as she shows off VERY slender legs in Daisy Dukes!

Taryn Manning looked worryingly thin during her latest outing. The 36-year-old star appeared to be rather gaunt as she arrived for a hosting gig in Las Vegas on Friday. She showed off her very slender legs in a pair of Daisy Dukes as she arrived for the Sin City pool party event Ditch Fridays at the Palms Casino Resort.
The rest of the Orange Is The New Black star's ensemble was definitely boho chic-inspired as she rocked a black, white, and grey patterned kimono along with a shiny multi-coloured wrap headband. Taryn also rocked a shimmering silver one-piece swimsuit and completed the look with a pair of zip-up black suede ankle booties. The actress wore her signature blonde locks down under the headband as she sported natural, complimentary make-up on her face highlighted by rosy blush and shiny pink lip.

Tom Hanks must negotiate swap of US and Soviet agents during the Cold War in new trailer for Steven Spielberg's true story thriller Bridge Of Spies!
Tom Hanks must negotiate swap of US and Soviet agents during the Cold War in new trailer for Steven Spielberg's true story thriller Bridge Of Spies!
Saving Private Ryan, Catching Frank Abagnale, living in an airport - if there's one thing Steven Spielberg likes to do it's giving Tom Hanks tricky tasks. But he might have saved the hardest for last in his latest espionage thriller Bridge Of Spies. Based on real life events, Hanks plays Brooklyn lawyer James Donovan, who is tasked with negotiating the exchange of a captured US spy plane pilot for an undercover Soviet agent, right at the height of the Cold War.
'We are engaged in a war with the Soviet Union,' a voiceover in the new trailer ominously reports. 'This war for the moment does not involve men at arms; it involves information.'
The clip sets up the 1960 U-2 incident in which a US spy plane was shot down over Soviet territory which the American government tried to cover up as a NASA accident, but were forced into an embarrassing admission when it later emerged the pilot had been captured alive. The trailer also shows the arrest of Soviet spy Rudolph Abel - played by Mark Rylance - who was caught passing information in hollowed out nickels in 1957.

Elle Fanning shows her fashion forward style in striped dress as she enjoys day of shopping in LA!
She has close to a dozen projects on the horizon. But despite her busy schedule, Elle Fanning found time to enjoy a casual shopping trip. The 17-year-old star looked stylish as usual as she was spotted heading to the Madison store in the West Hollywood neighbourhood of Los Angeles on Friday.
As she is known for always rocking her fashion forward looks, no doubt she was looking to add even more stylish pieces to her already impressive closet on the outing. Elle's eye for clothing was definitely apparent in her look as she donned a sleeveless white and black striped mini dress along with a pair of white knit flat shoes. The Maleficent star accessorised the look with a small, silver bag draped over her shoulder as she sported beaded bracelets on one wrist and metallic ones on the other along with a few rings.
3 Reasons You Can’t Lose Your Belly Fat
3 Reasons You Can’t Lose Your Belly Fat
Sure, sit-ups will help, but for the most effective ways to blast belly fat, keep reading. (Photo: Getty Images)
Recently, a friend asked me how she could reduce her belly fat. She is a fitness instructor who works out regularly and follows the “80/20 rule” – eating healthy about 80 percent of the time. Still, she couldn’t lose her belly fat and was frustrated about it.
My initial response? Eat better, work out more and stop stressing. This was not the answer she was looking for. In fact, I had frustrated her even more by telling her something she already knew. What she really wanted to know was whether there is anything she can do to target her belly fat.
The short answer is no. There is no way to spot reduce. This doesn’t just apply to belly fat, but also to hips, thighs, butt, arms and any other body part that jiggles. Sure, there are exercises you can do to tone and strengthen these areas, but as far as losing fat in any one of them, it isn’t possible. To lose fat in one area, you must lose it all over.

A Fun Personality Test! Choose An Eye And See What It Reveals

Choose the eye you like best to learn more about yourself. A Fun Personality Test! Choose An Eye And See What It Reveals This is a fun eye personality test!

It's just for fun and I wanna see your answers! It's fun seeing who everyone is drawn to!
If you are drawn to 1,
Deep Down You Are Open. You're the type of person who will welcome almost anyone into your life and heart. You believe that it's better to take a risk and get hurt than to close yourself off to the world. You don't show the world your fears or insecurities. You believe that your problems should be dealt with privately. You try to be totally there for everyone, even if you're hurting inside. Helping others is how you heal.
If you chose eye 2,
Deep down you are Conscientious. You're the type of person who's always looking to make a good impression and do the right thing. You believe your actions make a difference in other people's lives, no matter how large or small they are. You don't show the world how worried and upset you are. You see a lot of misery and injustice that you keep to yourself. You are devoted to being the best person possible. It's the least you can do with your time on this planet.
If you chose eye 3,
Deep Down you are tortured. You're the type of person who has a very tumultuous past that still affects you today. You can't help but think that life is some sort of sick cosmic joke. You try to find your peace wherever you can. You don't show the world your darkest thoughts. You have a lot to endure, and your keeping it to yourself. Your outlook can be surprisingly sunny at times. You're an expert at picking yourself up when you fall.
If you chose eye 4,
Deep Down you are philosophical. You're the type of person who's likely to over think everything and anything. You like to get to the deeper meaning of things. You get so lost in your thoughts that it's sometimes hard to tell up from down. You don't show the world how unsure you are about everything. You may be figuring things out, but you're still confident. You see life as a puzzle, and you like playing with the pieces until they fit together. You may not ever figure out the meaning of it all, and you're okay with that.
If you chose eye 5,
Deep down you are mysterious. You're the type of person who hasn't figured yourself out, so good luck to anyone else who plans to try! You are a mash up of many contradictions, and your mood changes daily. Once find yourself, you've changed into someone else. You don't show the world much about yourself. You are a person of few words and confusing actions. You prefer to observe and learn about people before you chime in. You only say things that you are sure of.If you chose eye 6,
Deep down you are sensitive. You're the type of person who notices everything and forgets nothing. You are very in tune with the world. You feel deeply, and sometimes the silliest things can affect you. You are easily brought to laughter or tears. You don't show the world how fragile you are. You instead show people how insightful you can be. You are good at anticipating what's going to happen in your life. You are often the first one to see what's coming.
If you chose Eye 7,
Deep down you are fiery. You're the type of person who's always energetic or passionate. There's nothing subtle about you… ever. You tend to love or hate everything. You have a ton of opinions, and you make up your mind quickly. You don't show the world how anxious you are. You have a lot of energy, and too much of it means you can be quite nervous. Everything is very high stakes for you. You can’t help but build up the drama in your head.
If you chose Eye 8,
Deep down you are eccentric. You're the type of person who has unusual interests, beliefs, and practices. You've always been a bit of a weirdo. You don't care much for rules or tradition. You do things your way and let the chips fall where they may. You show the world everything about you. You have nothing to hide, and you just laugh off those who judge you. You wish everyone was more like you. There's a lot of joy in being a non-conformist.
If you chose eye 9,
Deep Down you are Intuitive. You're the type of person who understands other people and the world very well. You don't let on to how much you know. You can tell so much from someone's facial expressions or tone of voice. And you always know when you're being lied to. You show the world exactly what you want to show. Besides being good at reading people, you also know how you're being read. You know when you're being manipulated, and you know how to manipulate someone if you have to. You usually don't resort to it though!
Embrace all there is to love about America with Samantha Hoopes' new commerical for Carl's Jr.
Embrace all there is to love about America with Samantha Hoopes' new commerical for Carl's Jr.
One might say that Carl's Jr. loves the ladies of SI Swimsuit as much as we do. Over the years, the burger chain has solicited a whopping eight of SI Swimsuit's finest to showcase its range of decadent fast food sandwiches. So it should come as no surprise that another new burger means another new ad with one of SI Swimsuit's own. Rocking an American-flag bikini, two-time SI Swimsuit model Samantha Hoopes takes an unbelievable bite out of the #MostAmerican Thickburger, complete with a hotdog and potato chips.
Samantha joins the ranks of Katherine Webb, Hannah Ferguson, Anastasia Ashley, Nina Agdal, Emily Ratajkowski, Heidi Klum, Kate Upton and Sara Sampaio as a video girl for the somewhat provocative burger brand.
This ad might just be one of our favorites though, because who doesn't love a cheeseburger, in Samantha's hands, as she sits in a hot tub, in the back of a pickup truck, on an aircraft carrier, on the banks of New York City, overlooking Lady Liberty, with fireworks in the background?

This Nipple Balm Gave Me the Best Lips of My Life
This Nipple Balm Gave Me the Best Lips of My Life
I've always prided myself on not giving in to all those ridiculously tempting little products placed not-so-innocently at the checkout line. But during a recent trip to Ricky's NYC, mecca of all things beauty and beyond, I couldn't resist walking out with a tube of the Dr. Lipp Original Nipple Balm for Lips that was perched alongside the register. Nipples...lips...can you blame me??
"You're going to loooove this stuff," the cashier told me as she rang me up. Full-on beauty experiment mode: Engaged.
Here's the gist: It was originally created for new mothers who were experiencing sore nipples during pregnancy. Over time, the balm has gone from a staple for nursing mamas to a must-have in makeup artist kits as a multipurpose lip treatment, primer, and gloss, as well as a subtle highlighter for the face. What sets this beloved, all-natural balm apart from other lip products is its heavy dosage of lanolin, which is virtually as close as it gets to your skin's natural oils—i.e. instant soothing and hydration.
The Test
The formula itself is yellowish, ultra-thick, tasteless, and odorless, much like Vaseline, which is typically my go-to lip fixer. But unlike petroleum jelly, it really sinks in and doesn't feel caked-on or oily—aesthetically speaking, it's a real game changer. Having read beauty bloggers sing the praises of the balm as a lip primer, I gave it a try one evening before heading out for drinks. After dabbing on a light coat of the balm, I gave it a few minutes to sink in, then swiped on Ruby Woo as I normally would. I found that 1) My lips never felt dry (even several hours later and despite the matte formula of my lipstick) and 2) The ruby-red pigment stayed in place *almost* like it was lacquered on professionally. That night, and in the days following, I also used the balm like a brow gel to tame my thick arches and it met my criteria: long-lasting but without a glue-like finish. But what I loved most about the balm is how after my first two days of applying it twice daily, my pout went from dry and crackly (yes, even in summer) to smooth, soft, and supple without help from an overnight lip mask.
At $14.50 for a small tube, it's not exactly as economical as the $1.50 cherry ChapStick you'll find at your local corner store, but it *does* work magic all over—plus, it packs a major punch per teeny-tiny dab.
