Ellen Page's eyes though. This is the most perfect shade of brown I've ever seen.
I already wanted to be best friends with Beyonce but now I REALLY WANT TO BE BEST FRIENDS WITH BEYONCE.
Whenever there's a big celebrity story like this the MRA trolls come out in full force. It's definitely idiot season.
You're right, the real problem in the Chris Brown case has little to do with his career and everything to do with the fact that he should have been in jail for that assault. If he was where he belonged, the second assault would never have happened.

You're a woman who was falsely accused of sexual assault? I'm actually very interested in hearing about your experience, as it is a rare situation and not a point of view that's often heard. However, using your personal experience to deny the existence of a widespread cultural phenomenon like rape culture is doing the…
