Ariana Grande: SLAMMED For Skipping Mac Miller Tribute Concert!
Back in September, rapper Mac Miller passed away from an overdose after years of battling addiction.
Last night in Los Angeles, fans, loved ones, and colleagues from the music world gathered together to pay tribute to the late emcee.
John Mayer, Travis Scott and Chance the Rapper were among the A-listers who performed, but one star was noticeably absent.
Miller’s former girlfriend, Ariana Grande, opted out of participating in the evening’s festivities.
On social media, some Miller fans were critical of Grande’s decision not to participate, with many pointing out that the concert was both an opportunity to pay tribute to the late musician and a fundraiser for arts education.
Others took note of the fact that Grande paid tribute to Miller on Instagram, where she posed with his beloved dog while wearing a hoodie he designed himself:
“She is still deeply grieving and chose to pay respect in her own way,” a source close to the situation tells Radar Online.
“Ariana is now focusing her time and energy on her music and upcoming tour, which she is very excited about,” the insider adds.
“It’s what Mac would want.”
Miller and Grande broke up in May after more than two years of dating.
There was no mention of either that relationship or Miller’s fatal substance abuse issues during the concert.
On stage, artists paid tribute to Miller through music.
Mayer performed a cover of Miller’s “Small Worlds” while Vince Staples and Anderson Paak both performed songs on which they collaborated with Miller.
Between songs, friends spoke of their fondest memories of Miller, with Chance the Rapper offering one of the night’s most memorable moments:
“Mac, thank you for so many different things,” the emcee said of his late friend.
“Thank you for the music you made; thank you for the music that you provided other people with, for the opportunities that you provided me with, but overall, for the friendships that you built through your music and through your artistry.”
Along with several other performers, Chance credited Miller with inspiring him as an artist and a performer, but most importantly as a human being.

Kim Kardashian: Slammed For Posing Nude With Daughter on Instagram
These days, tt’s not exactly news when Kim Kardashian poses nude on social media.
Of course, that’s got nothing to do with any sort of deterioration in Kim’s appearance.
In fact, as far as we can tell, the 38-year-old mother of three is aging like Benjamin Button.
But Kim’s been a household name for well over a decade now, and the internet has the attention span of a gnat who missed its morning Adderall dose.
So it should come as no surprise that Kim’s curves don’t possess as much clout as they used to.
Although as she proved today, Mrs. Kardashian-West can still break the internet and stir up some controversy when she wants to.
That’s a pic that appeared on Kim’s Instagram page this afternoon.
“My heavenly baby! Showing off the new pink shadows in the Flashing Lights Collection wearing Flashy and High Key available at KKWbeauty.com,” Kim captioned the photo.
Sadly, it wasn’t long before the most insidious form of species of troll — the North American mom-shamer — descended on the pic’s comments section.
“The baby’s shoulder is touching Kim’s breast!!” commented one follower, presumably while clutching her pearls.
“That’s so creepy..she looks like a pedo,” wrote another fan.
And since this is the internet in 2018, some folks were just flat-out cruel for no reason, with one follower writing, “ulgy [sic] baby like de father.”
Stay classy, Instagram commenters.
Interestingly, Kim was mom-shamed for two different pics today.
She also posted this photo of 5-year-old North wearing eyeliner from her cosmetics line.
Predictably, some idiots trashed Kim for putting makeup on a first grader, others for “using” her daughter to sell makeup.
“So now babies are selling eyeshadow too, I don’t know it’s just a lil much for me,” wrote one such dipsh-t.
“Not long before plastic surgery.”
Yes, because clearly, that child is miserable and over-worked.
You’ve flouted our nation’s labor laws for long enough, Kardashians!
This has been your daily reminder that social media is a curse from the very darkest depths of hell.
Now, if you’ll excuse us, we have tweeting to do.

Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta Star Spice Gets Slammed for "Whiteface"
Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star Spice went above and beyond to draw attention to her new album.
She purged her Instagram of old photos, and uploaded just a few new ones — in which she has blonde hair and is wearing, well, whiteface.
Spice promises that she has a perfectly good explanation for this controversial choice.
Erica Mena was arrested for drug possession and Stevie J barely avoided jail for being a deadbeat dad in a major way.
Unlike her co-stars, Spice isn’t in trouble with the law, but she sure is in trouble with some of her fans and followers.
See, she released her new mixtape.
One of the songs on it is titled “Black Hypocrisy.”
In order to promote that song in particular, she wiped the slate clean on Instagram and posted new pictures.
These new images all show Spice, well, looking white.
“Wow I can’t believe this, Spice!” wrote one fan.
That same fan continued: “What the F–K have you done?”
Another simply wrote: “Girl you look crazy af.”
“Anything for likes and views… sell out your own… Babylon has your soul,” lamented another in the funniest way possible.
“Enjoy your payment for selling your soul. This is the only attention I’ll ever pay you,” this commenter promised.
“Enjoy thinking you’re white,” that commenter concluded. “Despite your great grandparents.”
(Here is Spice with her natural skin)
Folks, Spice doesn’t hate her skin. She was promoting her song, “Black Hypocrisy.”
The song itself — which has an accompanying music video — is all about not only accepting, but loving one’s natural dark skin.
There is an epidemic of black people bleaching their skin to have lighter skin.
That’s more about colorism than trying to be white, and it is a problem in the Caribbean and in many part of Africa.
She even speaks about how she was told early in her career that she would have more success with lighter skin. It’s heartbreaking.
Some even blasted her for looking white, as if that were somehow equal to blackface. It is not.
The reality, of course, is that outside of a very few places — places like Japan — “whiteface” is not a problem.
The reason that blackface is so horrific and offensive is not because someone put on too much makeup — it is tied to the history of the practice.
White men used to put on performances in which they would wear blackface and then act and speak in a way that ridiculed real black people.
(And if you see someone in blackface today, the odds are pretty good that they’re aiming to make fun of someone, not making an attempt at flattery)
In history, blackface wasn’t just rude — it was a racist instrument of oppression.
What came to be called “Jim Crow laws” were named after one such blackface character.
Blackface represents a history of people of privilege punching down.
Whiteface, in America, has no such power because no one in the U.S. is marginalized for being white.
Again, there are places in the world — like Japan — where whiteface can be offensive because the history and dynamic is different.
It seems safe to say that Spice didn’t bleach her skin just to prove a point.
That would be a weird thing to do for a song in which she sings about loving the strong melanin of her skin.
Instead, we’re going to go out on a limb and say that she’s wearing a whole lot of makeup.
She is parodying the way that some people — including people within her own community — seem to believe that she should look.

Catelynn Lowell: SLAMMED By Fans For "Selfish" and "Unsafe" Behavior
Catelynn Lowell has endured a number of hardships and setbacks in recent years, and the honesty with which she"s addressed these struggles has made her a favorite amongst Teen Mom OG viewers.
But the show documents every part of its stars" lives, so perhaps it was only a matter of time before fans began to see aspects of Catelynn"s character that they didn"t find quite so endearing.
Many feel that the current season of Teen Mom OG has portrayed Catelynn in an unflattering light.
Some have even accused of her endangering her unborn baby.
Here"s what viewers have to say about the new and not-so-improved Catelynn Lowell:
1. Better Days
For years, Lowell was regarded as one of the most down-to-earth and relatable stars of the Teen Mom franchise.
2. Hard Times
Fans rooted for her as she endured mental health issues, a tragic miscarriage, and other issues that put her marriage and her psyche to the test.
3. The Baltierra Bond
Catelynn and Tyler have endured difficulties that would have driven any young couple to the brink of divorce, but they’ve stuck by one another throughout. Or have they?
4. An Uneven Partnership
Part of the reason Catelynn is receiving so much blowback this season is that viewers believe she’s failing to properly support Tyler the way he’s supported her in the past.
5. The Low Point
In the past, Tyler happily assumed the majority of the parental responsibilities while Catelynn checked in for extended stays at in-patient treatment facilities on two separate occasions.
6. Failing Her Family?
Now, some fans feel that Catelynn is not only neglecting her husband’s needs as he attends to his own mental health issues, she’s also failing to keep up with her own treatment.

Tori Spelling: SLAMMED By Fans For "Drunk" Instagram Video
Tori Spelling has had problems these past few years.
In fact, she’s had just about every kind of problem you can think of — and she appears to be hell-bent on making all of them worse.
Tori has gone bankrupt and she seems intent on spending her way into an even deeper hole.
Tori has nearly divorced Dean McDermott but has opted instead to tough it out, despite allegations of infidelity, pyramid schemes, and generally being a colossal d-bag.
At one point, Tori even fell down at a Benihana and burned her hand on a grill.
Like we said, think of a problem that’s not “not being born to a life of unimaginable privilege” and Tori has experienced it.
So perhaps it should come as no surprise that the mother of five appears to be hitting the bottle a bit these days.
Or so her fans think.
According to Radar Online, Tori uploaded an Instagram story over the weekend in which she appeared to be heavily intoxicated — in the presence of her kids.
It seems Spelling was hanging out at the home of her friend, Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles star Josh Flagg, when she posted the slurry video to her page
“Josh has chosen to watch one of my movies, Troop Beverly Hills, so I’m going to walk in the kitchen and see what’s up!” she told the camera at one point.
“Are you really doing a fridge tour?” Tori’s confused 11-year-old son Liam asked.
And it seems the former reality star’s followers were just as perplexed by her behavior.
“Are you drunk?” asked one commenter.
“Yo, you been drinking girl?” another remarked.
“Are you hammered?” a third commented.
Tori didn’t reply, but a second Instagram clip may have answered those questions.
In the video, Tori could be seen screaming while rolling around with her kids on Flagg’s bed.
The stories were quickly deleted, but it seems fans have yet to forget Tori’s tipsy upload.
She posted a new story today, and many of the comments had to do with her boozy weekend.
“Not drunk today?” a fan commented on Tori’s latest IG story.
That’s the internet in 2018 for you.
You can delete whatever you want, but that doesn’t mean it’s forgotten.

Jenelle Evans: SLAMMED For Endangering Daughter"s Life!
Jenelle Evans is having a rough week — even by Jenelle Evans standards.
The Carolina Hurricane was never “mom of the year” material, but some fans believe she sank to a new low this week.
For starters, Evans Instagram followers were stunned when the Teen Mom 2 star twerked in front of her kids in a bizarre video shot by the side of a busy street.
And it seems that’s not the only time this past weekend that Jenelle made a questionable decision that may have put her children in harm’s way.
In an Instagram story that quickly attracted negative attention, Jenelle laughed as her 1-year-old daughter rode a tractor while riding in the lap of Evans’ husband, David Eason.
The child appears to be safe enough in Eason’s lap, but Jenelle takes heat for pretty much everything she does these days.
In tweets and IG comments. fans slammed Jenelle for allowing her youngest child to sit on a piece of heavy machinery while it was in operation.
There seemed to be a sharp urban/rural divide among commenters, with those who have lived on farms expressing their belief that David and Jenelle’s behavior was perfectly acceptable, and those who have not slamming her for negligent parenting.
We tend to side with those who think Jenelle didn’t really do anything that bad here.
But we can understand why so many are so quick to be critical of Jenelle.
After all, this is a woman who’s had CPS called to her home 20 times in the past year.
Was Jenelle wrong to let her daughter ride on a tractor while seated in her father’s lap?
We don’t think so.
But we also don’t think it’s wrong for fans to be on the lookout for suspicious or potentially dangerous behavior when scrolling through her social media pages.
Maybe Jenelle is unfairly criticized in specific cases like this one, but she’s done much to warrant the increased scrutiny.
Just last week, Evans spoke with Dr. Drew about the famous road rage incident in which she brandished a weapon and endangered the life of her eldest son, Jace.
Jenelle stated that she didn’t concern herself with whether or not she had traumatized Jace, though she admitted that the incident had left her with PTSD.
Needless to say, it’s not hard to see why fans are so critical of Jenelle’s parenting.

Jessa Duggar: SLAMMED For Surprising Photo of Son Henry!
Considering just about everything she posts online results in some seriously virulent mom-shaming, it’s amazing that Jessa Duggar hasn’t just deleted her Instagram account.
But in defiance of the haters, Jessa continues to post regular updates on her life as a stay-at-home mom of two boys.
And fans continue to love her for it.
Yes, Jessa is roasted for her “bad parenting” on an almost-daily basis, but she also receives a good deal of praise from fans who are enamored with her approach to child-rearing.
Generally speaking, the positive far outweighs the negative in Jessa’s comments sections.
But if she’s anything like most social media users, Jessa likely finds herself dwelling on the bad much more than she celebrates the good.
Still, she soldiers on, and continues to post pics that she must know are certain to draw criticism.
The image above certainly seems innocent enough, and it quickly racked up more than 70,000 likes.
“Henry on the weekend,” Jessa captioned the pic, along with a laughing emoji.
As usual, most of the comments consisted of gushing commentary on the cuteness of Jessa’s kids.
But as always, a handful of haters felt the need to rain on her parade.
“I thought electronics for kids were a no no,” commented one follower.
“Quick, take the cellphone away before he gets hooked,” wrote another.
And it wasn’t just concerns about Henry enjoying too much screen time.
Others complained about his appearance, accusing Jessa of photographing her son in an unkempt state.
Fortunately, Mrs. Seewald didn’t need to confront the critics herself.
She has an army of loyal supporters for that:
“And cue all the mommy-shaming,” remarked one fan.
“His hair isn’t brushed, he’s not dressed, playing on a phone or tablet isn’t interaction or the type of interaction a baby needs…blah, blah, blah.”
“People please! If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing! Why do ppl have to be so Ugly!” commented another.
Of course, since the vast majority of comments were positive, the army of Jessa defenders looks sort of silly here.
As far as we can tell, there’s a group of people who wait for the negative comments to appear just so they can court Jessa’s favor by refuting them.
In a way, they’re just as weird as the people who compulsively complain about her parenting.
It’s a photo of a toddler, folks.
Appreciate the adorableness and move on.

Jill Duggar Bribes Son With Candy, Gets Slammed By Critics
Not a week goes by without Jill Duggar getting slammed for her parenting methods by people who seem to detest her, yet continue to follow her on social media.
It"s a curious phenomenon made even more curious by the fact that Jill gets roasted even when she"s demonstrating top-notch parenting skills.
Case in point, Jill is homeschooling her kids, and it seems that even in summer (and even though her eldest is only 3) she remains committed to teaching them the basics at a young age.
And she"s not just winging it or relying on her own maternal instincts.
As evidenced by the video above, Jill has done her research.
She admits she"s no expert, but says she"d like to share her experiences with a handful of educational tools for the benefit of other parents who might be homeschooling their kids.
And naturally, this led to Jill being roasted so hard the Duggars opted to disable comments on her latest YouTube video.
"I"m no professional at all but this is just what we"ve enjoyed and Israel loves school right now, so we"re trying to just keep him busy with that," Jill said in the clip that apparently left some fans in a seething rage.
"And it"s fun," she added.
Seems innocent enough, but fans went off on Jill for everything from keeping her child out of school to using candy as an incentive.
Look, we know for some people the Duggars can do no right and their first instinct when they see any member of the family is to start hurling criticism.
It"s understandable, but it"s still dumb as hell.
Josh Duggar is a molester and Jim Bob and Michelle might be cult leaders, it"s true.
But Jill and her her sisters are victims in this case, and even when we side-eye their behavior (whihc is very often), we try to keep that in mind.
At best, the Duggar kids are sheltered, and at worst, their traumatized.
Something to keep in mind next time you feel like raking one of them over the coals for giving their kids candy.

Jinger Duggar SLAMMED By Fans For Endangering Unborn Child!
While we don’t know her exact due date, we do know that Jinger Duggar will soon give birth to her first child.
Early in her pregnancy, Jinger revealed that she was expecting to deliver in early July.
So now that Independence Day has come and gone, it comes as no surprise that fans are intently watching her social media pages for indications that Jinger has gone into labor.
Despite rumors to the contrary, it seems that Jinger is still pregnant.
Which is why some fans are upset to see that her hair color has changed slightly.
As you may know, there’s some debate as to whether or not it’s safe for pregnant women to color their hair.
It seems to be one of those arguments in which junk science and urban legends reign supreme, which is why many of Jinger’s Instagram followers saw fit to lecture her in the comments section of her latest Instagram photo.
“How can you safely dye hair while pregnant?” wrote one person.
“I guess I’ve always heard the dangers of the chemicals are an absolute no during pregnancy,” another remarked.
Some fans took a subtler route, confessing to ignorance on the matter, then promptly throwing shade:
“Love your hair Jinger! I wasn’t allowed to color mine when I was pregnant,” remarked one such follower.
“I was told it could harm the baby. Things must have changed since then.”
Others defended Jinger and pointed out that there’s no evidence that mothers can harm fetuses by coloring their hair.
“I’m a licensed cosmetologist and coloring is fine,” countered one person.
“We do recommend holding off the bleach till done with pregnancy, but it’s really to each his own!”
Another wrote, “The colored parts in her hair don’t reach to the roots, so I’m pretty sure there’s no problem with it.”
Generally, when you’re looking for authoritative answers on a medical question, it’s best to look somewhere other than the comments on an Instagram post, and according to the American Pregnancy Association’s website, it’s perfectly safe for expectant moms to dye their hair:
“Although fairly limited, most research indicates the chemicals found in both semi-permanent and permanent dyes are not highly toxic and are safe to use during pregnancy,” the site reads.
“In addition, only small amounts of hair dye may be absorbed by the skin, leaving little that would be able to reach the fetus. As such, this small amount is not considered harmful to the fetus.”
So we guess Jinger is in the clear on this one.
But don’t expect her to take to IG and defend herself against the haters.
For one thing, that would go against Duggar protocol.
Aside from the family firebrand Derick Dillard, no one in the extended Duggar clan engages with online trolls.
And now that Derick has been fired by TLC, you can bet that Jim Bob is more adamant than other about maintaining a wholesome image on. social media.
On top of all that, Jinger has more serious concerns on her mind these days.
She’s reportedly in nesting mode these days, and she’ll soon be the first Duggar woman of her generation to welcome a child outside the state of Arkansas.
It’s a lot of pressure — and we say if Jinger wants to treat herself to some highlights, we should all just ease off and let the woman live!

Meghan Markle: Who Just Slammed Her as "Common?!?"
You can refer to members of The Royal Family as many things.
Spoiled, perhaps. Out of touch, maybe. Old fashioned, almost definitely.
But there’s one insult that rises above the rest.
There’s one word swipe you can take that will serve as a legitimate burn, something that will cause the Queen to look up from her Cream of Wheat and give you a true stink eye.
And a friend of Prince Charles just used this term to describe Meghan Markle’s loved ones.
Speaking to The Daily Mail, Nicky Haslam – was born to one of Queen Victoria’s goddaughters, went to school with Prince Charles and socialized with Princess Diana – took aim at Markle’s family and bashed them as “frightfully common.”
Yes, common.
This may sound relatively harmless and totally innocent, but think about it for a moment.
Is there anything worse you can say about someone associated with the Royal Family than referring to him or her as a “common” person?
We really don’t think so.
Meghan, of course, married Prince Harry on May 19.
Of all the details surrounding these monumental event, two things stood out, both of which Haslam had an opinion on.
First, Thomas Markle did not attend her daughter’s wedding; partly due to health problems and partly due to embarrassment over a paparazzi photo scandal in which he received money in exchange for a few not-exactly-candid poses.
Markle was crushed by her dad’s absence.
But Haslam was grateful he didn’t show up for the big day.
“It would have been awful if that huge lump had been there,” he told the aforementioned British newspaper.
The second thing to really note about this Royal Wedding was, naturally, Markle’s wedding dress.
What would it look like, folks wondered prior to the nuptials? Who would design it?
For the most part, reviews for the reviews of the Givenchy gown were positive in the hours and days after the ceremony, but Haslma has no idea why.
“I didn’t very much like her dress,” he says here. “It didn’t fit, among other things. It should have been made of thinner stuff, it seemed to be made of concrete.”
(Pop singer Katy Perry, we might as well add, also slammed Meghan’s dress, saying “I would have done one more fitting.”)
Nicky Haslam clearly sucks and isn’t really worth spending too much time on.
But sources tell Us Weekly that those even closer to the Royal Family are frustrated by Markle; or, to be more specific, frustrated by Marke’s father and the interviews he continues to give.
“Thomas is walking a fine line,” a source tells this tabloid. “This blabbing needs to stop if he wants to maintain any relationship with Harry and Meghan.”
Late last month, Thomas actually hurled some shade at Queen Elizabeth, wondering why President Trump has had a chance to meet her, but he has not.
“If the Queen is willing to meet our arrogant, ignorant, and insensitive president, she has no excuse not to meet me,” Thomas told TMZ, adding:
“I’m nowhere near as bad.”
On that point, we’re guessing even Haslam would agree.
