Taylor Swift: Mocked by Pundits, Comedians for Failed Political Endorsement
Taylor Swift shocked most of the free world several weeks ago when she came out of the woods and threw her support behind a pair of Democratic political candidates in Tennessee.
In a heartfelt and lengthy Instagram post, the singer endorsed Jim Cooper for House of Representatives in her native state and Phil Bredesen for Senate.
How did her preferred nominees do? Well…
Cooper defeated Jody Bell by a whopping 35 points in what was clearly a not very competitive race.
But Bredesen failed to help Democrats gain a majority over Republicans in the Senate. He lost by about 14 points to Marsha Blackburn.
Oh well, right?
You can’t win ‘em all and the important thing is that Swift used her platform for something she believes in, prompting an enormous surge in voter registration by doing so.
Nope, sorry. That wasn’t the important thing according to at least one Conservative pundit out there.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham took to Twitter after Bredsen’s failed bid to rub his loss in the face of the pop star, something totally normal and mature for her to do.
“Hey @taylorswift13, haters gonna hate. #shakeitoff,” Ingraham wrote following the election results.
Ingraham has a history of going after young singer, as she previously labeled Ariana Grande as spoiled and entitled.
In this case, however, she wasn’t the only famous person to cite Swift’s endorsement in her summary of the midterm elections.
Stephen Colbert also poked fun at the Tennessee Senator outcome during his live episode of The Late Show.
“I guess Tay-Tay didn’t have that much sway-sway, and Blackburn’s support for the Trump administray-stray eventually outweighed-weigh the president’s support for higher teacher pay-pay at the end of the day-day,” he joked.
He poorly joked, we should add.
After failing to offer her support for Hillary Clinton in 2016, and after remaining silent for years on basically all social issues, Swift took social media followers by surprise exactly one month ago.
“In the past I’ve been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but due to several events in my life and in the world in the past two years, I feel very differently about that now,” she wrote at the outset of her unexpected endorsement at the time.
She continued:
“I always have and always will cast my vote based on which candidate will protect and fight for the human rights I believe we all deserve in this country.
I believe in the fight for LGBTQ rights, and that any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender is WRONG.
“I believe that the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, sickening and prevalent.”
What issues did Taylor have with eventual winner Blackburn?
“She voted against equal pay for women. She voted against the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, which attempts to protect women from domestic violence, stalking, and date rape.
“She believes businesses have a right to refuse service to gay couples. She also believes they should not have the right to marry.
“These are not MY Tennessee values.”
In the end, Swift’s message earned her mockery from Donald Trump and a few others out there.
But we hope she was not dismayed from getting more involved in the future.
She has a very powerful voice. It would be a shame if she chose not to use it.

Khloe Kardashian Baby Name: Explained, Mocked to Death
Will the truth set Khloe Kardashian free?
We"ll soon find out.
But four days after giving birth to her first child, Khloe Kardashian announced that the child"s name is True.
Yes, True.
True Thompson, to be exact, after her cheating and lying father.
How did Khloe (and Tristan, we guess) arrive at this decision? And what does social media think of it?
You may be surprised by the answer to this first question… and not surprised at all by the second answer.
Scroll down for more!
1. The Truth is Out There
Officially, this was made true on April 12, when Khloe gave birth to her first child, a daughter with controversial baby daddy Tristan Thompson.
2. Why is He Controversial?
Are you really asking that? Numerous reports, some replete with surveillance footage, have revealed that Thompson cheated on Khloe multiple times throughout her pregnancy. He has not denied this.
3. The Poor Kid, Right?
This was the main sentiment around the Internet after Thompson’s actions were made public. But then it got even worse, after Khloe announced her child’s name…
4. TRUE
Yes, True Thompson is the name. Kardashian made this announcement as a caption to the above image, writing on April 16: “Our little girl, True Thompson, has completely stolen our hearts and we are overwhelmed with LOVE. Such a blessing to welcome this angel into the family! Mommy and Daddy loooooove you True!”
5. What’s in a Name?
Who the heck knows when it comes to the Kardashians? True now joins cousins Chicago, North, Saint, Reign and Stormi in a family full of cute kids… who may want to come up with their own nicknames in the near future.
6. Where Did This One Come From?
Kris Jenner actually revealed the original of the unusual first name on Instagram, writing this as a caption to the above picture: “I’m so excited to welcome my precious little granddaughter True!!! FUN FACT… my Grandfather’s name on my Dad’s side was True Otis Houghton….my Dad’s name was Robert True Houghton…so i am so excited Khloe named her daughter True!!! #lovebug #familytradition #family @true.”

Tom Brady Goes OFF On Radio Host Who Mocked His Daughter
In just six days, the New England Patriots will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in what may well prove to be one of the most lopsided Super Bowls in NFL history.
Between his team’s obnoxious dominance of the AFC, his history of shrugging off cheating allegations, and a haircut that makes him look like a guy who would happily park his Lamborghini in a handicapped space, it’s not hard to see why Pats QB Tom Brady is so widely despised.
But even when doling out some well-deserved trash talk to Tom Terrific, it’s important to observe Mafia rules:
You have to leave the man’s wife and children out of it, and you can only put a severed horse head in his bed if you’re a vengeance-seeking Colts fan.
Unfortunately, a co-host of a Boston radio show failed to adhere to that code of conduct, which means he’ll soon be “deflated” by Brady’s team of “equipment managers.”
(That means he’ll be stabbed repeatedly.)
Now, being a member of the Boston sports media means publicly fellating misters Brady, Belichick, and Kraft in hopes that one day Bill Simmons will offer you a job ghost-writing his 14,000-word listicles cataloging the most underrated quotes from The Wire.
WEEI host Alex Reimer broke the rules in a big way last week by referring to Brady’s daughter as a “an annoying little pissant.”
The comment was made in response to a scene in the hagiographic documentary Tom Against Time, which apparently features a scene in which Brady’s daughter behaves in a way that Reimer deemed unacceptable.
Brady is a weekly guest on Reimer’s show (talk about biting the injured throwing hand that feeds you) and needless to say, this morning’s interview was a mite tense:
“I’ve tried to come on this show for many years and showed you guys a lot of respect,” Brady said Monday before abruptly ending the conversation.
“I’ve always tried and come on and do a good job for you guys. It’s very disappointing when you hear that, certainly. My daughter, or any child, certainly don’t deserve that,” he added.
“I really don’t have much to say about it this morning.”
We kid Tom, but in all seriousness, it’s beyond uncool to talk trash a public figure’s kid.
Besides, this is Tom Brady we’re talking about.
Despite his many accomplishments and rugged good looks, the guy’s life is a treasure trove of shade-throwing possibilities.
How about the allegations that he banged Ivanka Trump?
Or the fact that Tom keeps trying and failing to convince the press that he’s not friends with Floyd Mayweather because his wife is understandably less than thrilled by the fact that he hangs with convicted wife beaters?
Or better yet, why not just be good sports and hope that Brady gets repeatedly pounded into the turf and humiliated in front of the world’s largest television audience on Sunday?

Vicki Gunvalson Mocked for Illness by Frenemies: She"s Just Dramatic!
Why are they like this?
A number of the cast members on The Real Housewives of Orange County can be real pieces of work, and Vicki Gunvalson is no exception. But nobody deserves to be mocked for being sick.
In trying to poke fun at their frenemy for her malady, Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, and Meghan Edmonds mostly just revealed their ignorance and insensitivity for the whole world to see. Again.
If you read our latest The Real Housewives of Orange County recap, you know that in addition to talk of forgiving Kelly and some of the usual factional talk, there was a lot of talk about health.
Well … a lot of that was about plastic surgery, but not all of it.
One small portion of the episode involved Vicki Gunvalson informing her frenemies that she was sick.
Specifically, she announced that she had Influenza B.
This announcement triggered a flurry of insults as Tamra, Shannon, and Meghan jumped at the chance to ridicule Vicki.
Tamra, of course, resents Vicki for spreading gay rumors about her husband.
Shannon Beador blamed Vicki Gunvalson for making her fat, and Vicki’s shared some nasty rumors about her marriage, as well.
Meghan Edmonds asked: “How does she know what letter it is? … She got tested because she thought it was C or A? “
A lot of rich people, particularly those who are older, have great insurance and don’t mind copays and would rather know what’s wrong with them than just suffer through it.
And, oh by the way, Vicki — like the rest of her castmates — isn’t as young as she used to be.
Illnesses can get more serious as you age.
But Meghan continued. “Like why do you get it tested? All you do is you deal with it and you get better.”
Look, that’s how most of us deal with getting sick.
(Honestly, even if I had the resources of a Real Housewife, I would still probably just stay in bed with blankets and broth)
But it’s usually considered the smart thing to:
-go to the doctor
-get tested
-get official medical advice and get medication either recommended or prescribed to suit your precise needs
Tamra Judge, who hasn’t been anything close to a friend of Vicki’s for a long, long time, keeps the criticism going.
“She’s very dramatic.”
Yes … literally all of them are, or they wouldn’t be on a Real Housewives show.
But unless there was some off-camera lamenting on Vicki’s part that this flu was going to be the end of her, her dramatic tendencies aren’t relevant.
But Meghan Edmonds continued:
“The text is going to say ‘I’m dramatic as f–k and I have to make it as bad as it can possibly sound, so I’m going to put a letter next to influenza."”
Shannon Beador does her best to “burn” Vicki under the circumstances:
“She’s not Vicki anymore. Her name is ‘victim."”
Uh … nice try, Shannon.
Look, we’re not the sort to rush to Vicki’s defense, but these three were making total asses of themselves and we’re not going to pretend that they weren’t.
Unlike Influenza A, which tends to strike during the winter months, Influenza B can infect people and cause them to develop flu symptoms throughout the year.
Most of us think of the flu as an inconvenience, but Influenza B specifically is acknowledges as a potentially fatal disease that claims lives all around the globe every single year.
And that’s despite a slower mutation rate than Influenza A (which means that Influenza B has a harder time adapting)
If you’re still wondering why, aside from idle curiosity or even just being specific, it matters that Vicki Gunvalson got Influenza B …
… Influenza B can have a particularly harsh impact on children and adolescents.
Knowing that she has Influenza B might cause her to avoid contact with children even more carefully.
And, again, knowing exactly what makes you sick shouldn’t be mocked.
It’s just useful information.
Sometimes when you reach too hard for a way to put down someone else, you just look like a fool.

Jimmy Kimmel: Mocked by Congressman Over Speech About Son"s Heart Surgery!
On Monday night, Jimmy Kimmel inspired a river of tears that still has yet to stop when he revealed that his precious new baby boy had to have heart surgery shortly after his birth.
JImmy said that doctors discovered the baby had a congenital heart disease, and that he required surgery then and he’ll have to have another one in a few months.
He talked about the ordeal for a few minutes, even crying through some parts — and understandably so — and during his speech he also mentioned some facts about health insurance.
“You know, before 2014, if you were born with a congenital heart disease like my son was, there’s a good chance you’d never be able to get health insurance because you had a pre-existing condition,” he said.
“If your parents didn’t have medical insurance, you might not even live long enough to get denied because of your pre-existing condition.”
“If your baby is going to die and it doesn’t have to,” Jimmy added, “it shouldn’t matter how much money you make.”
“No parent should ever have to decide if they can afford to save their child’s life. It just shouldn’t happen. Not here.”
And he’s right — it absolutely shouldn’t. That’s just common sense and basic human decency, right?
According to former Congressman Joe Walsh, not so much.
Yesterday, after Jimmy’s story started getting a lot of attention, Joe tweeted “Sorry Jimmy Kimmel: your sad story doesn’t obligate me or anybody else to pay for somebody else’s health care.”
For real, he actually tweeted that. How heartless can you be?
He also tweeted that “Health care is complicated. Health care is bankrupting America. But instead of thinking thru all of that, we’d rather cry with @jimmykimmel.”
Or hey, why can’t we cry with Jimmy Kimmel and try to reach out to all those dozens and dozens of countries who manage to have universal healthcare. Why not both?
Good ol’ Joe wasn’t done though.
“11,000 Americans retire every day. We’re living into our 90’s. Instead of debating how to pay for all that heath care we watch @jimmykimmel,” he wrote.
“I’ll say it: For a people no longer capable of logic & reason, it’s perfect that a late night comedian just decided our health care policy.”
What a bunch of nonsense, right?
But don’t worry: Twitter put Joe in his place.
“You should be ashamed of yourself,” one person told him. “And hope to god nothing happens to YOUR kids, you ignorant f-ck.”
“Thank you for having the courage to fight against those conniving evil takers, sick children,” another wrote.
And many, many people pointed out that in 2011, Joe’s ex-wife sued him for unpaid child support, claiming that he owed a total of $ 117,437 in past due payments for three kids.
The great Patton Oswalt tweeted “Joe, you won’t even pay child support for your OWN kids. We already knew you felt this way, you worm. No need to tell us — we’re good.”
Another person wrote “How peculiar that a deadbeat dad would take this particular stance, even as a form of desperate attention seeking.”
But still, Joe wasn’t moved.
Just this morning, he tweeted “It’s not compassion to forcibly take the money I make & give it to someone else. It is compassion for me to voluntarily help someone else.”
OK, Joe. Whatever you say, pal.

Beyonce Pretends to Understand Tennis, Gets Mocked By Twitter
Over the weekend, Serena Williams triumphed over Angelique Kerber at Wimbledon to take home her 22nd Grand Slam title.
Folks from all over the world tuned in to watch the match, and as always, the best and brightest from the worlds of sports, business and entertainment were on hand to catch Serena’s victory live.
Unfortunately, it seems that at least one of them wasn’t fully aware of what was happening.
Beyonce and Jay Z were on hand at Wimbledon, which makes perfect sense:
She seems to have gotten over that whole “Becky With the Good Hair” thing, he loves sports, and she loves being seen places.
There’s no questioning who Queen Bey was rooting for, as she and Serena are friends and occasional collaborators.
(In case you missed it, Serena’s slow twerk in Bey’s “Sorry” video my have ben the highlight of … life, actually.)
But some folks think Mrs. Carter was a little slow on the uptake during her bestie’s big moment.
Check out the footage and judge for yourself:
As you can see, when Williams scores the winning point, Bey seems to take her cue from the crowd that it’s time to cheer.
Was she mentally checked out, or is she just not totally sure how tennis works?
Either way, we’re sure millions can relate.
And we’re guessing Serena isn’t too torn up about it.
Not only did she tie Steffi Graf as the winningest woman in Open Era tennis, she also got to take a selfie video with Kate Middleton.
All-in-all, not a bad weekend.

Kate Middleton: Mocked By Royal Family For This Habit
A new documentary on Queen Elizabeth II, Our Queen at 90, contains some terrific insight into the life of the long-ruling monarch.
It also revealed a fun anecdotes about Kate Middleton as well …
We not only learned Prince George’s adorable nickname for his great-grandmother – Gan-Gan – but some royally fun Duchess facts.
Chief among them? The fact that one of the royal family’s favorite activities is teasing Kate Middleton … for being too friendly.
And a talker. Kate loves her some chit-chat. Commoners …
“She has been very generous and not, sort of, been forceful at all in any of her views,” Kate said about her grandmother-in-law.
“I feel she’s been there as a gentle guidance really for me. Everyone teases me in the family that I spend far too long chatting.”
“I think I have still got to learn a little bit more,” she said, “and pick up a few more tips” when it comes to an economy of words.
Forget tips. Hopefully the 34-year-old Duchess picks up more solo interviews. She can chatter away all day if we had our way!
You have to love the fact that unlike her royal counterparts, Kate is not known for holding back or choosing her words carefully.
This just further cements her reputation as the People’s Princess, a true national treasure at once regal and approachable.
If that doesn’t reaffirm your love for Middleton, what will?
Okay. How about these photos then? You’re welcome:
