YES! STICK IT TO THE MAN! GIRL POWER!
I'm a complete cynic but I really believe that if the company was doing ok financially, he'd still be employed. He has been a pervy ass from the beginning. I'm not complaining that he's been fired, I just am doubtful that it wasn't primarily financially motivated.
This should be an "It Happened to Me" article on xojane. It's THAT gritty and shocking!!!
Ideally, all 100% of us should have access to reasonable child-care. It's very sad that this advice is for the 1% only- it shouldn't be.
She also says "Sometimes I see a lot of my friends just get taken over by their kids and their life, and that's great, but if you don't spend a little bit of time—whether it's two hours a day, or one day a week to go and visit with your friends. It really helps a lot."
There are so many gems in the Clooney reunion piece. This one from his aunt is really cute:
To be fair you really can't judge her music by the singles they release. The other songs on her albums are always infinitely better than her singles and are way less made-for-mass-consumption, manufactured pop. "All Too Well" rips my heart out every time and I just can't quit it.
Thank you! The point I think that runatalanta missed is that this is not irony in any meaningful sense of the term, and that doesn't magically change if people point to the lyrics and say that critics are "missing the point" because irony.
Intentional fallacy, yo. That may very well be what her songwriters were going for, and what she'll claim this song is about. But considering who she's working with in the video itself (two high-profile sexual predators), and the disturbing way she's sexually objectifying herself *coupled with* said lyrics, I'm not…
While I do think the point of the song is celebrity/fame, she's telling it through the metaphor of sexual exploitation. Also is it really fair to criticize someone's opinion of a song being based on one line, when that "one line" comprises about 60% of the song?
I have gone from loving Gaga to being absolutely repelled by her. The incident with the woman vomiting on her and now this Terry Richardson/R. Kelly disaster? Please, go sit down, Gaga. If this is the best you can do, it's over.
I don't think she is secretly a feminist, she seems like a pretty strong, girls first, self-assured chick. Feminists can be romantics, right?
I've defended Lady Gaga to friends over the years. I liked her so much that I saw her in concert once and I hardly ever go to concerts. But this whole friendship with R. Kelly is so disgusting. I think I'm over you, Gaga.
Between this and having whiskey sours with Ina in yesterday's dirt bag, it's almost like Taylor Swift is on a one woman campaign to make me like her or something.
I can't imagine the unbearable pain the father is in. Unfortunately, its not something that happens due to negligence, it's more due to how our brains can go into "autopilot" and forget seemingly important things. I wish we could figure out a fool proof way to stop it from happening, some sort of censor that might…
Well, that's part of it, certainly. But, taken alone, it verges a little bit on the kind of thinking that makes people believe that racism can be solved by people being color-blind (hint: it doesn't work).
Stylelikeu.com is awesome, and I don't even read fashion blogs. I love how they interview artists, musicians, designers and other creative people whose lifestyles I actually find interesting. But following some bougie basic ombre-hair-having nobody getting paid to $hill the latest ugly $600 platform shoes? NOPE.
And is it just me or do they all wear the same thing? I see very little "style" on style blogs where the focus is on the writer - a lot of stupid platform shoes and ripped jeans with four thousand dollar bags come to mind. Street style blogs like The Sartorialist have always been my preference.
