Heidi Montag Flaunts 6-Month Baby Bump!

It wasn’t so long ago that Heidi Montag was being called out for excessive drinking and having a dysfunctional relationship with her mother on The Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition, but she’s taken such great strides since then.

And now, Heidi Montag is 6 months pregnant and she’s showcasing her baby bump in some adorable photos.

Fairly recently, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt excitedly announced that they were having a baby boy.

Well, they know what sorts of genitals their baby will have, anyway.

Gender’s a lot more complicated than that.

But sure, they can put blue balloons on their mailbox, because people like to assign genders to colors, too.

Anyway, these two are super happy, and after the rough go of things that Heidi’s had, we’re glad to see her so happy.

So they went to Heidi’s hometown of Crested Butte (no jokes, please), Colorado.

Crested Butte is a tiny little hamlet with under 2,000 people, but it’s also apparently a great site for skiing.

It’s also clearly a great location for taking photos that show off your baby bump.

And aren’t they a cute couple?!

Honestly, you don’t really see reality TV personalities getting their happily ever afters all that often, you know?

But these two don’t just look happy … they look chill and content.

You know what we mean by that distinction?

Like, if this were just some career-boosting photo-op or whatever, Spencer wouldn’t have that stupid beard.

Probably.

There are some pretty okay beards in the world but that particular one isn’t working for him.

But that doesn’t matter because he’s just enjoying his time with his wife with that beautiful scenery for a backdrop.

They used to do everything that they could to desperately grasp at attention, but now they’re just … living their lives. Who knew?!

And Spencer isn’t the only one who’s having a good time taking photos with Heidi.

Yes, that is Darlene Egelhoff, Heidi’s mother.

Remember, these two were estranged for a while there after Darlene publicly criticized Heidi’s cosmetic surgery choices.

Honestly, going public with criticisms like that is such a dick move.

But while The Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition didn’t quite help everyone who appeared on it …

Like, this was the show where it was revealed the Courtney Stodden’s mom fell in love with Courtney’s then-husband Doug Hutchison. Some things are harder to work past than others.

… Heidi’s relationship with her mother does seem to have improved.

Kind of amazing to think that some reality shows actually help the people involved.

Maybe we’ve just read of too many Bachelor Nation couples splitting up, you know?

It’s great to see that they’re getting along well enough that Darlene will get to be in her grandbaby’s life.

We’re not saying that Heidi and Spencer’s relationship success is supposed to give us hope for all other reality couples.

But it does give us hope for their baby’s future.

And it’s so nice that they’ve reached such a healthy place in their lives after how ridiculous they used to be.

Also, like, Crested Butte looks like a great place for pregnancy photos.

How often do pregnant moms get to say that they put the Rocky Mountains to shame and have the photos to back it up?

Kailyn Lowry Flaunts Baby Bump in Bikini Pic, Continues to Attract Controversy

The big day is almost here, Teen Mom 2 fans.

After months of controversy, drama, and wild speculation about the identity of her baby daddy, Kailyn Lowry is soon to give birth to her third child.

Currently, Kailyn is enjoying a “babymoon” vacation with her sons in St. Thomas, and because everything the reality star does attracts controversy, fans are currently in an uproar.

That’s Kail on the beach with her boys.

From that angle, you can barely tell she’s pregnant, which is surprising, what with bikinis being fairly revealing, and whatnot.

Lowry captioned the photo:

“Coki beach & the people were so good to us! needless to say, the kids are so happy & tired out.”

Seems innocent enough, right?

Well, unfortunately, many fans took the opportunity to drag Kailyn for an existing controversy surrounding her trip.

Many believe that Lowry is putting her unborn child at risk by traveling to St. Thomas.

For starters, remember that whole Zika virus business from the summer of 2016?

Yeah, it’s not making headlines anymore, but it’s still very much putting people at risk in many parts of the world.

St. Thomas happens to be one such place, and the CDC has cautioned pregnant women against traveling there.

Looks like Kailyn has decided to disregard that warning, which is strange, as she’s already described her pregnancy as “at risk.”

Given the circumstances and Lowry’s usual conscientiousness as a mother, you’d think she would avoid taking chances whenever possible.

To make matters worse, Kailyn is being criticized for the timing of her trip.

As you’re probably aware, doctors generally advise against pregnant women traveling in their third trimester.

While we don’t know Lowry’s exact due date, comments she’s made on social media have led fans to the conclusion that it’s sometime in the next month.

Kailyn has made vague remarks about shrugging off the haters, but hasn’t responded to concerned comments from fans in any concrete way.

Obviously, we hope everything turns out alright, and we’re sure Kailyn is taking what precautions she can while traveling.

Watch Teen Mom 2 online to get caught up in time for what’s sure to be one of the show’s most drama-packed seasons to date.

Amy Duggar Flaunts Skin, Flouts Family Rules with Bikini Selfie!

The Duggars usually prefer to live just a few degrees away from The Handmaid’s Tale, a show that they would surely never watch because it’s part of sinful Western culture or something.

Amy Duggar King has always been something of an outsider in that family. She’s a niece rather than a daughter, for one thing. She also enjoys worldly things like enjoying her life.

But you don’t normally expect to see any Duggars dressed like Amy is in the photo below.

Contrary to what a lot of xenophobes (among other types of bigots) think, you don’t need to look to foreign countries or cultures to find ideologies that oppress women.

You literally just have to look to the Duggars.

(Plus an alarming number of fans, pundits, politicians, and others)

The Duggars follow a form of Christian Fundamentalism that places them on the fringe of society, even among fellow conservative Christians.

As viewed through the lens of Duggar beliefs, women are essentially the property of their fathers and then, when married, belong to their husbands.

Oh, they might not phrase it exactly like that, but that’s how it goes.

Jim Bob calls all of the shots.

At least until they get married, which is why Amy is now able to share photos like this one on Instagram.

This is a totally normal photo for those of us who live in our, um, “reprobate mainstream society” where women get (some) input over what they do with their bodies.

Instead of, you know, being nonstop incubators in a fertility cult.

But for the Duggars, this is scandalous.

Remember, this is a family where a woman wearing pants is controversial.

The harlot.

Like, girls-don’t-wear-pants was already considered old-fashioned in the 1930s.

But the attitude of the Duggars hails somewhat beyond that, before things like autonomy and reporting sexual predators to law enforcement were widely accepted.

Some historians would argue that the “yesteryear” that the Duggars seek to recreate never really existed as they imagine it.

It’s important to note that this isn’t Amy’s first time showing off her sinful skin-flesh.

Amy Duggar wore a bikini on her honeymoon with Dillon King.

It’s such a deviation from the beliefs of the Duggars that we almost wondered if we’d just dreamed it up, you know?

But she’s back at it again, being a person and deciding how to decorate her meat prison.

It’s almost like she’s her own person!

Amy and Dillon have had their share of marital issues, but they’ve taken steps to work through them.

Very public steps, we might add.

The Duggars aren’t strangers to conflict.

Jim Bob’s position as patriarch gives him a creepy level of authority over his children.

But once his daughters marry, they enter the custody of their lord husbands (ugh).

That’s resulted in some theological clashes between Jim Bob and his sons-in-law.

Sincerely held religious beliefs can be part of a person’s core identity, and they’re usually something worthy of respect.

But when someone tries to use them to control another person, that’s where we all have to draw the line.

Amy might no longer answer to Jim Bob’s whims, but how many of her cousins can say the same?

How many of her cousins will get to one day wear a bikini — if they choose to?

Kendall Jenner Flaunts Bikini Body and Great Hair in Summer Selfies

You wouldn’t normally think that wearing even part of a shirt on top of a bikini could somehow make your pic even hotter.

Leave it to Kendall Jenner to reliably look hot no matter what she’s doing. These two new photos really embody that.

Those abs are gonna kill us.

Try as she might, Kendall can’t quite compete with her sisters’ curves, but she has her own body-type.

And she’s just ridiculously gorgeous.

Like, she’s not a supermodel by accident.

While her more problematic siblings are being accused of stealing designs or doing weird stuff to promote their business, Kendall just goofs around with friends.

And models.

Modeling, more than most of the Kardashian clan, resembles what most of us consider to be a real job.

(Reality stars work hard and are followed by cameras all day, and that’s a lot, but it doesn’t fit traditional concepts of a job, okay?)

And the worst thing that Kendall’s ever done is, what, star in a dumb Pepsi commercial?

Actors and models are supposed to basically be just action figures who act out the vision of the writers and directors.

It’s kind of hard to lay that controversy at Kendall’s feet.

Kendall’s whole minding-her-own-business-while-being-hot thing works.

And then there’s this photo:

She captioned this one: “Rest of 2017.”

A mirror selfie is a little less polished, of course, than her bikini photo.

But she still looks all kinds of gorgeous.

-Those legs.

-That leopard print (it looks great in moderation, but let’s keep it from coming back in style, please).

-That form-flattering white with ruffles.

-Don’t ignore the wine glass in her off-hand.

-That hair.

She has this hair in both of the new photos, and we’re kind of feeling a little obsessed.

Given her caption, we wonder if she’s going to keep this style for the rest of the year.

Could we be so lucky?

Kendall’s no stranger to having good hair, of course.

None of the Kardashian girls are.

We’re definitely crediting Kris Jenner for being a good influence in that department.

Growing up on camera probably didn’t discourage them from being selective about their hair, though.

But this hair looks fun and stylish.

It also looks intensely practical for dealing with summer heat.

Southern California is too hot at the best of times and blazing hot at the worst.

You have to find a way to cool off.

And if you’re not willing to forego all of the hair on your head like Kendall’s friend Cara Delevingne has recently, there are other options.

You don’t even need to get an undercut, though those look amazing.

A huge, stylish updo or whatever Kendall wants us to call this could work for casual and polished looks.

Maybe don’t wear it to a board meeting or into a courtroom, but other than that, it looks pretty darn versatile.

Maybe, when they tire of controversies, Kendall’s siblings will learn to calm down and quit stirring up backlash.

Yes, the Pepsi commercial caused backlash, but that can happen to anyone.

And Kendall didn’t mastermind it.

Her role was just being super hot, like in every job that she takes.

We’re glad that she’s keeping cool enough to enjoy a glass of wine this summer.

The worst parts of summer are when it’s too hot for you to drink.

Unless you live in a place that tends to be on fire during the summer.

That’s worse.

Christina El Moussa Flaunts Revenge Body, Cute Daughter

Christina El Moussa has taken to Instagram in order to taunt her estranged husband.

In a new round of revealing photos, the Flip or Flop co-host flaunts two things that Tarek El Moussa will be seeing far less off in the future, as a result of the ex-couple’s pending divorce:

1. Her body.


2. His daughter.

The interior designer strikes quite a few poses here with her six-year-old daughter, Taylor, as mother and child done similar bikinis in new ads for L*Space Swimwear by Monica Wise.

The 33-year old is clearly having some fun with the photos, including her dog in many of them, writing silly captions on the pictures themselves and giving Taylor a donut at one point.

But it’s hard not to read a lot more into these images.

Christina, of course, separated from Tarek back in May.

But the public did not learn about this separation (or the insane, gun-wielding fight that broke the relationship’s back) until several months later.

Tarek and Christina released an amicable, joint statement at that time, but various tabloid sources since have painted the pair in a negative light.

Tarek has received the brunt of this bad press, most notably one story that said he often joked about raping his wife on the set of their HGTV series.

So… might Christina be sending a couple messages with these photos?

She flaunting a rather tight bikini body in each of the images, while making it clear that she has no problem exploiting adorable little Taylor, either.

“Shoot prep & playtime,” one of Christina’s captions reads, while another even jokes that she’s found a “new boyfriend.”

Who could it be?!?

You’ll need to scroll down to find out!

“I’m doing really good. I’m in a really good place,” Christina told said earlier this month when asked about her mental state.

She added at the time:

“The kids are happy, they’re healthy, Tarek and I are in a good spot. We have a lot of things that we’re working on, cool things coming in the future, so we’re just looking forward.”

It’s true that both Tarek and Christina have had nothing but positive things to say about each other when approached by reporters.

It’s hard to know what’s taking place behind the scenes, and we’d have to imagine Tarek won’t love seeing these photos, but each star is saying the right thing in front of a camera.

For example:

“There’s a lot of false stories and a lot of hype, but in the end we’re just normal, nice people who just want to be the best parents and coworkers that we can be,” Christina told People Magazine in a cover story last month.

Does she begrudge Tarek at all? Does she want him to die alone?

It doesn’t sound that way.

“It is what it is and we are going through a divorce and eventually we will be dating other people,” she told the same magazine, adding very simply:

“I’m happy for him and whatever steps he takes in his life and I just hope he’s happy.”

We’re happy looking at these pictures, Christina. Does that count for anything?

Beyonce Flaunts Baby Bump, Gets Goofy with Blue Ivy

Beyonce is back to baby bumping.

The singer, who is expecting twins later this year with husband Jay Z, took to her official website over the weekend and shared new photos of herself, her daughter and the most famous stomach in the world.

The pictures were from Beyonce and Blue Ivy’s March 11 outing to New York City’s Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.

As you can see above and below, the global superstar showed off her growing baby bump online while placing it inside a form-fitting white dress and a blush coat.

She accessorized the ensemble with silver dangly earrings, embellished gold heels and a red clutch.

(No, this time around, Beyonce did not drop any gender hints based on her earrings, necklace or any other piece of jewelry.)

The artist did not include any captions with these photos because that’s not typically how she rolls.

She likes to keep an air of mystery surrounding herself and her family, only letting fans inside their lives via the occasional cute image or video.

As we’ve noted in the past, no one controls his or her own narrative quite as well as Beyonce Knowles.

Following a couple weeks of rumors, she confirmed her pregnancy on February 1, writing the following along with a picture on Instagram:

“We would like to share our love and happiness.

“We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. – The Carters.”

Since then, Queen Bey has actually posed naked while pregnant, but she hasn’t revealed a due date or talked openly about whether she’s expecting a girl and a boy; two boys; or two girls.

However, Beyonce did give fans an adorable glimpse of the one girl most prominently in her life at the moment:

Little Blue Ivy Carter!

In a couple of adorable images, Beyonce and her five-year old play around with Snapchat filters in the car, turning themselves into bunny rabbits and cheetahs.

We don’t see this side of Beyonce very often, do we?

Here’s a look at Blue having a blast:

Added the artist back when she told the universe about the kids growing inside her womb:

“We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for the well wishes.”

Since then, Beyonce has performed at the Grammys… stopped by a pre-Oscars party… attended the Beauty and the Beast premiere with her family… and shared a few other pregnancy photos.

She looks amazing in all of them.

The expecting mother has also been doing intense Soul Cycle workouts to stay fit.

“She’s been taking a class almost every day,” an insider previously told Us Weekly.

Why are we not shocked? 

This is typical Beyonce, right? She acts like a regular mother, taking her daughter out for a fun day and being all goofy with her on social media…

… while also proving time and again that she’s basically superhuman, somehow managing to hit the gym; hang out with her toddler; and continue to excel in the field of music.

Bow down, people. Just bow right down to the Queen.

Britney Spears Flaunts INSANE Body in Workout Pics

With so much going on in the world today, you may have missed the recent milestone anniversary of one of the defining events of our generation.

We’re talking, of course, about the day that Britney Spears shaved her head.

It was February 2007 when Spears decided to go the start sporting the Mr. Clean look, and while both Brit and her fans are able to have a laugh about it these days, at the time, it was taken as a troubling sign of things to come.

Many believed Spears was stuck in a downward spiral from which she would never recover.

Fortunately, these days we can see that the naysayers were as off-base as the pundits who predicted Donald Trump would be back back in Midtown Manhattan, ranting into a tack, gold-veined mirror by now.

Britney rebounded from her meltdown in epic fashion, and these days, she’s enjoying the sort of career longevity and living legend status that most pop stars only dream of.

Britney has a Vegas residency that’s bringing in some of the biggest bucks of her career.

She’s dating Sam Ashgari, and friends say she’s convinced he’s “the one.”

 

(Of course, she also thought that about Kevin Federline and a whole host of other d-bags, but the less said about that, the better.)

But the Britney achievement that’s earning the most attention these days is the the fact that at 34, after having given birth to two kids, the singer appears to be in the best shape of her life.

As you can imagine based on the pics above, Britney has inspired many a #FitnessGoals comment on her recent photos.

She also offered fans a glimpse of her workout routine with this Instagram video:

Britney Spears Workout Video

Now, it’s easy to look at celebs who are in flawless shape and think, Hey, it’s their job to stay in shape! If I could afford a trainer, nutritionist, personal assistant, etc., I would have six-pack abs, too!

We don’t want to rain on your parade (especially since we use those excuses ourselves on a daily basis) but Brit recently opened up about her fitness regimen, and it seems it’s not particularly time-consuming:

“I like my workouts to be effective in a short amount of time,” she told People magazine.

“I start with 20 minutes of intense cardio — usually running — move on to light free weights; body-weight exercises such as push-ups, squats and situps; then finish it off with a stretch.”

So maybe it’s genetic?

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that her job involves running around on a hot stage while rocking 40 pounds of sequins?

We may never know for sure.

For now, we’re just happy to have Britney looking healthy and sporting a full head of hair.

Ariel Winter Flaunts Boobs in See-Through Top, Instagram Rejoices

If you follow Ariel Winter on Instagram, then you’re probably not baffled by the fact that a teenage sitcom actress has an astonishing 3 million followers.

There are a few simple reasons for this.

Chief among them is the fact that Ariel has giant boobs and and seems to enjoy putting them on display.

Boobs, as you may know, are the one thing (two things?) the Internet loves more than cats and the Cash Me Ousside Girl, so Ariel really hit the SEO lottery at birth.

Fortunately for her fans, she’s well aware of this and takes full advantage of her good fortune on a regular basis.

The photo above is a still from a GIF that Ariel posted over the weekend, and we’re pretty sure it holds the power holds the power to make you forget about everything from your Trump-induced malaise to that dumb Oscar envelope mix-up that everyone can’t stop talking about.

At least for about 2.5 seconds, anyway:

Ariel Winter Boobs GIF

Not surprisingly, the post generated a good deal of praise and more than a few marriage proposals.

“Damn you are fine!” commented one user.

“She is America’s prettiest lady,” wrote a fan, who we’re assuming conducted exhaustive research on the subject.

There was the occasional hater in the mix, but that’s pretty much the case with all things on the Internet, always.

Ariel’s only 19, but she’s been in the business for nearly a decade.

We’re sure she’s learned how to brush the dirt off her shoulders with panache.

To our minf exciting news here is that Ariel is harnessing the power of the animated .GIF, which is a platform that’s brought cleavage selfies to new heights of creative expression.

With .GIFs, boobs come to life like framed photos in Hogwarts.

But despite our unfortunate choice of simile, we’d like to take this opportunity to discourage Ariel from posting more sexy Harry Potter cosplay pics.

We’re usually in favor of cleavage in all its forms, but it’s weird enough that a woman who rose to fame playing a geeky middle-schooler on Modern Family is now rivaling Kate Upton for the title of Internet’s Favorite Boobs.

Throw Harry Potter in the mix on top of it, and it’s all just too confusing.

We might have start sending Ariel our therapy bills.

Kim Zolciak Flaunts Ridic Cleavage, Buff Husband on Vacay

Kim Zolciak is never tardy when it comes to rest, relaxation and downtime – while documenting the experience on social media, of course.

Case in point? Her trip paradise with Kroy Biermann.

The mother of Brielle Biermann and five other kids, 38, has been chronicling her "happy place" and giving us all some vacation envy.

Check out the epic shots in the gallery below …

1. Her Happy Place

Kim Zolciak called it this in her caption on Instagram. It certainly looks it.

2. Making the Connection

“Manifestation waves. Where I connect best,” Kim said, and we’re guessing she doesn’t mean her followers’ special connection to that cleavage.

3. White on White

“White on white,” she captioned this one. Somehow we doubt her fans were fixated on that.

4. Her Heart

Wonder if Kroy knows he was being photographed and that she posted this.

5. Oh, Snap

The Bravo star prepared for her trip by trying on the smallest two-pieces possible. Looks like a few made it into her luggage.

6. Island Life!

Though the Atlanta resident didn’t give away her location, she did share a pic of herself and Mr. Biermann on Snapchat.

Kylie Jenner Flaunts Bikini Body, Dodges Lawsuit on Instagram

It seems like not a day does by that we’re not graced with new Kylie Jenner bikini photos.

Kylie has figured out a social media formula that works for her, and she clearly takes an “if ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach to her web presence.

(Granted, “people enjoy partial nudity” isn’t the most novel marketing strategy, but few have made it work as well as Kylie has.)

The 19-year-old queen of the ‘Gram rarely switches things up, and why should she?

She’s found a formula that’s helped make her social media pages some of the most popular and profitable on the Internet:

Show a lot of skin; occasionally the same crappy weight loss teas as everyone else; move mountains of lip kits to impressionable young people.

Today, however, Kylie switched things up and did something we’ve never seen her do before.

Interestingly, it seems she did so not by choice, but rather to avoid a costly and potentially very humiliating lawsuit:

Those lip kits that we mentioned?

Yeah, they’ve not only made Kylie millions, they’ve forced the cosmetics world to take her seriously as an entrepreneur, and not just Kim’s very ambitious little sister.

Of course, the kits are nothing special on their own, and they won’t give you lips like Kylie’s.

(You’ll need to drop a sizable chunk of change on “temporary fillers” to achieve that effect.)

The real key to the success of the kits is the marketing – and for that it seems Kylie may owe a sizable debt to a largely unknown artist named Vlada Haggerty.

Kylie has been accused of copying Haggerty’s work for her signature drippy lip logo, and now it seems she’s making it up to the artist with multiple Instagram shout-outs.

She posted the photo above earlier this week, with a caption reading:

“This really is everything. Check out the wonderful makeup art of @vladamua!”

She followed that up with even more praise and another example of Vlada’s work:

“Check out this inspiring photograph from @juliakuzmenko and @vladamua!” Kylie captioned the pic.

As you may have guessed, this wasn’t a simple case of Kylie acknowledging her creative debt to an artist who inspired her.

According to TMZ, Haggerty filed accused Kylie of trademark infringement and filed suit.

In documents obtained by the website, Kylie’s lawyers claim that she has a “history of taking Haggerty’s original dripping lip art and passing it off as Kylie’s.”

The suit appears to have been settled out of court, and Kylie’s shout outs are likely mandated by the terms of the agreement.

Naturally, some fans were quick to call shenanigans.

“You are always and will always be a copy cat,” wrote one follower.

“Have your own style, swag and body for once in your life… Have a mind of your own Kylie.”

Harsh words, but it’s true that Kylie’s lack of originality will likely continue to be a detriment to her career as she gets older.

You can’t be Kim Kardashian’s mini-me forever and expect the public to stay engaged.

We already have one Kim.

Ariel Winter Poses Topless, Flaunts Breast Reduction Scars, Remains a Boss

Back in 2015, Modern Family actress and rising social media celebrity Ariel Winter underwent breast reduction surgery.

She opens up about this topic, and bares all – literally and otherwise – in a revealing new interview with Self magazine.

“Growing up in the spotlight was quite possibly the worst for my self-esteem,” the 18-year-old star told the publication.

“I had a hard time finding confidence within myself.”

“When I started [Modern Family], I had a completely different body than what happened overnight at 12 years old.”

“I was stick thin,” she adds. “I had no chest, I had no butt … I had nothing. I was totally flat, and I was so sad about it.”

“Then automatically, overnight, my body changed.”

“I was a D cup and had a bigger butt, and my waist was expanding. Everything was getting bigger. I automatically got this hate and judgment online.”

Accepting her body transformation wasn’t easy.

Fortunately, “I had a great role model in Sofia [Vergara] growing up, with her being a curvy woman that was super proud of who she was.”

“[Sofia] could see that I was struggling a little bit with how to deal with my body, and was always trying to give me advice.”

“Like, ‘Here are some brands that would look good on our body type,’ or just ‘Wear whatever you want, and feel good about yourself."”

Winter also credits her older sister, Shanelle Workman, whom she lives with, for encouraging her to be comfortable in her own skin.

“I look up to her so much,” she gushes. “I would listen to her talk to me, saying, ‘It doesn’t matter what other people think. You are who you are.”

“It’s not going to change. Love yourself.”

Her older sister told her to focus her love inward:

“People are going to hate regardless of what you do. You could conform to everything they say, and they’re still going to find something.”

“It was hard for me in the beginning to deal with people’s comments and deal with everybody having an opinion on absolutely everything,” she says.

“It was hard for me to not fall prey to wanting to change the way I felt and the way I did things and the way I looked because of other people.”

But as Winter got older, she got better at realizing:

“As long as I’m positive in my life and feel good about my decisions and stick to how I feel and the things I want to do, that’s what’s most important.”

“And that’s what’s going to get me through in life.”

One of the things she wanted to do, regardless of what others thought, was have breast reduction surgery at the young age of just 17.

The scars from having her 32F breasts are visible in the photos above, and Winter calls it “honestly the greatest choice I made.”

Winter made some headlines for wearing a dress to last year’s SAG awards that showed off the scars from her breast reduction procedure.

Explaining her decision, she tweeted: “Guys there is a reason I didn’t make an effort to cover up my scars! They are part of me!”

“I’m not ashamed of them at all. :)”

These days, Winter – who trolls often call “fat, and ugly, and a slut” on Instagram – says she’s done listening to the haters these days.

Still, she has her moments.

She says the worst comment she ever received was on a photo of herself and her nieces wearing bathing suits on a family vacation.

Someone said she was “asking for it.”

Yes, as in asking to be sexualized for daring to show any sort of skin … while on a vacation with her family members. It was disheartening.

She remembers being truly shocked.

“It made me super disappointed in our world, and in the internet and the people who were writing things on the Internet,” she says.

“That really disturbed me, and made me incredibly upset,” Ariel adds, and “I really had to stand up and make it a point to fight back.”

To her, people were “body shaming, but also slut-shaming” her, and “taking aim at people that weren’t doing anything wrong.”

And that, she says, is what has to stop. Now.

“Making comments that were so harmful and distressing for absolutely no purpose,” she says, drove Winter to take action that day.

We don’t suspect it will be the last time she gets trolled – or that she stands up and fires back at those sending such horrible messages.

Even the simple act of defiance and calling out the trolls for who they are sends a powerful message in this day and age.

And for that, and everything else, we thank her.

Kylie Jenner Flaunts Diamond Ring, Is Clearly an Idiot

Kylie Jenner has sparked a new round of engagement rumors.

By rocking a new and very large sparkler on her finger.

According to various sources, the shiny piece of jewelry was a recent gift from long-time boyfriend Tyga, making it only natural for fans to wonder whether the stars have agreed to marry.

Did the rapper really propose on his birthday, as a report speculated just last week?

Not according to Kylie, who told E! News in response to the rumors of her engagement that the bling is “just a little promise ring.”

Based on the size of the diamond, however, we’d say there’s nothing little about it.

Moreover, who the heck gives out promise rings to their grown-up girlfriends?!? A promise to do what? Pay back all the money Kylie has lent Tyga?

The unsuccessful artist turned 27 years old on November 19.

We already know that he was gifted with a pair of Kylie boobs in his face for the occasion, but an insider told OK! Weekly that Jenner asked her man what else he wanted as a present.

“He said, ‘I want you and no one else,” this tabloid claims, adding:

“And then he asked her to be his wife! Kylie was just blown away. She absolutely adores Tyga and wants nothing more than to build a life with him. She’s always felt they were soul mates.

“So of course she said yes.” 

Jenner tells a different story, though.

Asked about her relationship status by E! News, the 19-year old simply said last week that she and Tyga are “chilling.”

But she was a bit more open in her latest interview with Complex Magazine, making it clear at the time that she and Tyga are in this for the longest of hauls.

“We love each other,” she told the publication. “We need to be together at all times. We never get mad at each other, we just figure things out.”

That’s all well and good and we hope Kylie marries Tyga and they have lots of babies and their own reality show and everything because… hey, why not?

The real story of Kylie’s new ring is actually how little the teenager has learned by wearing it around in public and flaunting it as she is in the Instagram photos above.

It only last month, remember, that half-sister Kim Kardashian got robbed at gunpoint.

A number of sources have confirmed that the culprits were particularly focused on a $ 4 million ring that had recently been given to Kim by Kanye West.

And how did they know about the ring?

Because Kim constantly wore it around and showed it off on social media.

Kim has gone into hiding since this frightening incident, but those close to the star and her family say that she’ll be far more careful about flaunting her wealth going forward.

Why take any chances that something like this robbery could happen again?

Kardashian really should get Kylie on the phone and pass along this same message.

It’s fun to wonder whether or not the reality star is engaged. But look at the rock she’s throwing in everyone’s face below… 

It will not be fun to wonder whether or not Jenner is okay if the same fate befalls her and that ring as befell her famous sibling.

Think about it, Kylie. Then put the ring in a drawer.
