Hillary Clinton Trolls Trump, Reads Fire & Fury at 2018 Grammys

In all likelihood, Donald Trump did not watch the 2018 Grammy Awards last night.


After all, the president kicked off Sunday by firing off a combative tweet at Jay Z in response to the rapper"s audacious suggestion that the current administration hasn"t exactly been a boon to minorities and other groups specifically targeted by Trump.


So unfortunately, the Donald probably missed out on a ceremony that kicked off with a politically-charged performance from Kendrick Lamar and didn"t ease up on the timely commentary throughout. 



It"s tough to say what he would have thought of the show.


Trump hates being criticized, sure, but not nearly as much as he hates not being the center of attention.


Perhaps that"s why for most of the night, the shade was thrown indirectly, with artists making their feelings about the president clear without ever mentioning him by name.


But there was one moment in which the anti-Trump sentiment was made quite clear with the help of some unexpected A-listers and a controversial bestseller.


Fire and Fury is Michael Wolff"s scathing tell-all about the Trump White House that basically reads like an in-depth exploration of the reign of Prince Joffrey.



On last night"s Grammys, several stars read excerpts from the book, including John Legend, DJ Khaled, Cardi B … and Hillary Clinton.


Yes, Trump"s biggest political rival dropped a savage burn in the pre-recorded segment, reading from a portion in which Wolff reveals that the president eats McDonald"s because he fears being poisoned.


All over this great nation, the Happy Meal-starved toddlers of America are jotting down a solid new argument to use on mom.


Watch the clip below and stay tuned for news of a Trump coronary event.

Kim Kardashian Reads a Kanye Mean Tweet to Jimmy Kimmel!

We all love those "celebrities read mean tweets" segments that Jimmy Kimmel does. Honestly, we sometimes wonder if some of the hateful tweets are really just attempts to get on TV.


Well, to celebrate Jimmy Kimmel"s birthday, the show put together mean tweets about Jimmy Kimmel — giving him a taste of his own medicine — and had his various celebrity friends read them to him.


There are a lot of gems, here. But what might be the best one is Kim Kardashian reading a mean tweet about Jimmy … written by Kanye West.


Kimmel mean tweets chris hemsworth


Ray Romano is Kimmel"s birthday guest, and the tweet that he read was:


"Jimmy Kimmel needs a kick to his d–k hole."


That would take some impressive aim.


Michael Keaton, one of those rare actors who"s played both a superhero and supervillain (Batman and also The Vulture), read the first of many tweets that shame Jimmy"s appearance.


"I thought I saw Jimmy Kimmel @ Home Depot. Turns out it was just a sloppy dude with big dimples."


That"s not actually one of the meaner ones.


Halle Berry, who is looking jaw-droppingly gorgeous as always, reads: 


"@jimmykimmel you are a jackass d–k sucker keep your mouth shut and do your little Tv show or get the f–k out of our country."


That bit of nuanced opinionating sounds political in nature.


Blackish star (and former Law & Order star) Anthony Anderson shared a strangely introspective hateful tweet:


"@jimmykimmel you represent everything I hate about myself. You bloated douche bag."


Kimmel mean tweets kristen bell


Controversial radio host Howard Stern jumps in, after wondering how he managed to get roped into doing this bit:


"Is Jimmy Kimmel crosseyed or just ridiculously ugly?"


He dismisses that particular mean tweet as "stupid." He"s right.


David Spade seems a little too enthusiastic as he reads:


"@jimmykimmel go suck a gorilla d–k u dumb fatass."


Honestly, all that we can think about when we see David Spade is his feud with Danielle Bregoli.


Kimmel mean tweets larry david


Chris Hemsworth reads a backhanded compliment, though he"s distracting in his handsomeness … and in that he trips over one word.


"@jimmykimmel is a comedy god. Like a deformed, lame, hideous god, such as ancient Greece"s Hephaestus. But that ugly bozo was still a god."


As you"ll see in the video below, Chris really struggles with the name Hephaestus. Way more than anyone should, since most people learn about the Olympians in elementary school. Maybe not in Australia?


(Since Thor: Ragnarok was absolutely incredible and probably the best MCU film to date, we"ll give Chris a pass on that)


Speaking of stars of excellent media, Kristen Bell reads a tweet that body-shames Jimmy Kimmel in more ways than one:


"@jimmykimmel R u kidding me w that flabby body? What the f–k – get 2 the gym man. Do u really shave ur pits??? Scary!"


That"s rude. Also hair-removal doesn"t have to be gender-based.


(You know she"s starring on The Good Place, which was so good that I binged the first season in one day … whoops)


Kimmel mean tweets jon stewart


Jon Stewart, who"s not doing much recently other than getting roasted by Kathy Griffin on Twitter over his response to the Louis C.K. revelations, reads:


"Jimmy Kimmel is that same fat kid from Win Ben Stein"s Money who grew up to become that fat kid from Win Ben Stein"s Money."


Ouch!


Larry David"s might be the funniest (as you"ll see, he just about loses it) but also one of the meanest:


"This is going to sound fantastic, but I forgot Jimmy Kimmel"s name so I googled "Ugly late night talk show host" and I got him, top link."


Kimmel mean tweets kim kardashian


There are plenty of others, including actors Liam Neeson and Jennifer Lawrence and convicted rapist Mike Tyson.


But who really got our attention was Kim Kardashian.


Most of these stars were reading tweets from random, quasi-anonymous internet strangers.


Kim Kardashian, however, was reading a tweet from a fellow celebrity … who is also her husband.


Kanye West"s words, as read by Kim:


"JIMMY KIMMEL PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES … OH NO THAT MEANS YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN TOO MUCH GOOD P—Y IN YOUR LIFE."


Kim seems to think that it"s a fair point.

CNN Reporter Reads Full Statement by Stanford Rape Victim

CNN takes a lot of abuse for the way it handles its job as a news organization.


That"s what happens when you use holograms to conduct interviews and rely on Twitter as a source of information.


But anchor Ashleigh Banfield made headlines for all the right reasons on Monday night for the way in which she used her cable news platform.



In a touching stand against silencing rape victims, Banfield dedicated over 20 minutes of airtime to reading nearly the full statement from the victim of a 2015 sexual assault at Stanford University.


The case has gone viral because Brock Turner, whose mug shot is featured above, was convicted of sexual assault last week.


However, he only received a sentencing of six months in county prison, despite the judge having the option to sentence him to a maximum of 14 years behind state bars for his crime.


In response, the 23-year old victim in the case read an emotional letter out loud in court, addressing her assailant in it and outlining the ways in which his act has affected her life.


Banfield spent the first half of her program, “Legal View,” reading the victim’s 7,000-plus-word statement, only leaving out parts deemed too graphic for television.


“You don’t know me, but you’ve been inside me, and that’s why we’re here today,” Banfield read to open the message, walking listeners through the victim’s difficult experience,


The incident took place January 2015 after the victim attended a party with her sister and then woke up covered in dried blood, pine needles and bandages.


She later discovered that Turner had sexually assaulted her behind a dumpster while she was unconscious.


Banfield has received an outpouring of praise for this act.


Take the time to listen to the letter below:

Stacey Dash Reads Mean Tweets About Herself

Stacey Dash is determined the milk her ongoing 15 Minutes of Fame for all she possibly can.


The Fox News contributor made one of the strangest appearances on television in the medium"s history Sunday night, walking out on stage at the Academy Awards after Chris Rock introduced her as "the new director of our minority outreach program."


Dash, who believes Black History Month ought to be eliminated, proceeded to cackle and tell an audience of millions:


I cannot wait to help my people out. Happy Black History Month.


No one really booed. No one really cheered. Everyone just sat there in stunned, confused silence.


Rock was likely playing a joke on Dash, but the former actress is trying to get the last laugh.


She actually went backstage after her appearance and stole Jimmy Kimmel"s idea of having celebrities read Mean Tweets about themselves.


“No one likes you,” Dash reads from her phone in the following video, quoting one critic on Twitter.


"You sucked on the Oscars like you do on Fox News. Pointless," reads another.


Dash doesn"t seem to comprehend that it"s not funny when a truly unpopular star reads a bunch of insults from people who represent the majority opinion.


But, then again, Dash doesn"t seem to comprehend a whole lot in the world.


"I do what I do because I want to do it,” Dash says, adding:


"And because I believe in it. It has nothing to do with race, and I wish you would stop saying that. Everything I do is because I believe in it and I believe we are all equal …  I’m very happy about what I did and I’m proud of it."

Cersei Reads Actual Insults from The Bachelor

Queen Cersei has a question for Ben Higgins:


Let"s be honest, man. Who wants to f-ck a virgin?!?


Lena Headey appeared on Monday night as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live, admitting that she has never tuned in to watch The Bachelor online or on television.


But that didn"t mean she couldn"t get into her beloved Game of Thrones character in order to read actual lines from Season 20 of the ABC reality sensation.


Along with the above insult, Headey (goblet of wine in hand, of course) did her best impression of Ben"s various suitors from the past several weeks, reading lines about bad breath and boob jokes and, of course, "bitches."


Thanks to some leaked The Bachelor spoilers, we have a pretty strong idea of who will win Ben"s heart this season… and even of who will be named The Bachelorette for this summer"s edition of the program.


But can we stop for a moment and nominate Headey? As Queen Cersei, of course?


She"s single. She"s hilarious. She"s mean. She"s catty. She"s always drunk.


She"s perfect for the gig!


Check out Headey"s hysterical Jimmy Kimmel Live appearance and impressions below and just try to disagree:


Lena Headey for The Bachelorette!!!!

Dog Prays, Reads and Tucks Tiny Owner In to Bed

There are few more precious pieces of footage on the Internet than videos that depict the relationship between a very small human being and his or her pet.


Consider this look at a dog barking and a baby laughing uproariously.


Or these photos of a dog and his small owner taking a nap together.


But, trust us, you"ve never seen anything like what we"ve discovered below.


It"s a video of a toddler named Alexander and his German Shepherd named Baron.


According to the video"s description, what we see here takes place every night… and what we see here is truly remarkable.


First, Baron helps Alexander clean up his toys.


Then, Alexander and Baron both say a few prayers.


Then, Baron gives Alexander some kisses and tucks him in to bed. He makes sure his best friend in the entire world is all snug and comfortable.


Then, Baron leaves the room, but not before turning off the lights so the little guy can sleep. Seriously! For real! We are not making this up.


Alexander’s mom, Linda Gonzalez, is the founder and owner of Hill County K-9, a pet training service in Oceanside, California.


This helps explain Baron"s incredible training to some extent, but some of it has to do with his sweet nature and overall feelings for Alexander. How can it not?!?


"He"s pretty smart,” Gonzalez told The Huffington Post in April of Baron.


That may very well be the Understatement of the Century.


You"ll feel the same after viewing this bedtime routine. It"s amazing.


Toddler and german shepherds bedtime routine will blow you away
