Armie Hammer Blasts Everyone Who Tweeted a Stan Lee Selfie

Hollywood lost a legend this week.

As previously reported, Stan Lee died at the age of 95.

It didn"t take long after this news broke for scores of tributes to come flooding in for the co-creator of Marvel, someone responsible for entertaining and educating millions upon millions of comic book fans.

Many of these tributes, especially from celebrites, included a photo of the person making the tribute and Lee. Together. It was often a selfie.

What"s the big deal? Isn"t this a typical move in the social media age?

Yes, and Hammer is here to explain why it"s the wrong move — while many others are here to disagree with him…

1. The Tweet That Started It All

“So touched by all of the celebrities posting pictures of themselves with Stan Lee… no better way to commemorate an absolute legend than putting up a picture of yourself,” wrote Hammer.

2. Who is This Really About?

Hammer is trying to make a bigger point about social media here, how it leads to user making EVERYthing about themselves.

3. Some Stars Worked with Lee, Though

Hammer had an easy reply to that point.

4. What is the Proper Protocol Here?

5. So… This Was a Self-Centered Tweet?

Not sure if we agree, Armie.

6. And This Person Doesn’t Agree, Either

Lili Reinhart Claps Back at Trolls With Topless Selfie!

Courageous Riverdale stars Camila Mendes and Lili Reinhart have lashed out at their body-shamers in the past.

Now, for her 22nd birthday, Lili is showing off her body with a topless photo.

Sometimes, the best way to drown out the haters is to remind them how amazing you are. Take a look:

Cole Sprouse posted the photo that you’re about to see to wish a happy birthday to his co-star and girlfriend, Lili Reinhart.

Lili turned 22 years old on Thursday, September 13.

“Both the birthday and the gift,” Cole writes.

“My little muse,” the 26-year-old actor calls her. “Happy birthday my love.”

In the photo, Lili is gazing into the mirror while topless.

The photo was shared to Instagram, where of course women’s nipples are infamously singled out for restriction.

For the longest time, Cole and Lili were simply rumored to be in a relationship.

Gradually, however, they made things official.

The two of them play love interests Betty Cooper and Jughead on The CW’s hit drama, Riverdale.

And, just last month, Lili gave Cole a shoutout over his birthday.

Cole’s birthday was August 4, and Lili posted this photo of him with a tribute of her own.

“It seems as if the world would still be a stranger to me, if not for you,” Lili wrote.

Lili’s sweet post continued: “I’m so thankful that our paths intertwined to form this beautiful adventure.”

Finally, she signed off: “Happy birthday, my love.”

That is so precious! We love that their birthdays are so close.

Riverdale is a hit for good reason.

The teen demogrpahic can watch it at more or less face value, for the relationships — Betty and Jughead, known by shippers as Bughead, being they keystone of fan interest.

Adults — or anyone over 25, basically — can enjoy the show for its surreal artistry and for its almost satirical nature.

From Cheryl Blossom’s magnificent wardrobe to the peculiarities of Riverdale‘s setting, older fans enjoy the show in the way that they once enjoyed Gossip Girl and Veronica Mars.

It doesn’t hurt that all of the main characters’ parents are played by some of the biggest stars of the ’90s. (Anyone else feel old?)

The popularity of Riverdale led to the greenlighting of a related property.

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina premieres on Netflix next month, and we already know that there will be a second season.

It will be nothing like the Melissa Joan Hart adaptation, and viewers can instead expect satanism and cannibalism, just like in the comics on which the series will be based.

We hope that the stars from both shows — shows which are linked in the comics — will work together on crossovers, even if it’s just cameos.

Betty and Veronica play a key role early on in Sabrina’s comics — we wonder if Lili Reinhart will make an appearance.

Kim Kardashian Tasks Crew Member to Serve as "Selfie Assistant"

Kim Kardashian is a liar, folks.

Kim Kardashian is a faker.

Kim Kardashian is dishonest and misleading and she has now admitted as much hereslf.

On tape, no less!

Are we being a tad bit dramatic? Maybe.

But the Keeeping Up with the Kardashians clip featured here depicts Kim sitting around with sister Khloe and mother Kris and explaining that her wrist hurts and she forgot her brace.

The social media mainstay must snap a few selfies, though, however. She simply must.

So… what does Kim do about it?

She asks E! crew member Paxy to take a mini break from her duties and to hold Kim"s phone in the air to make it appear as if she is snapping a selfie.

See! We told you she was a liar!

Khloe and Kris initially scoff at this set-up, but then the latter comes around a bit.

"It"ll protect Kim"s hand without missing a beat on social media," Kris tells the camera. "I"m definitely gonna poach Paxy to be my selfie assistant."

Be sure to watch the clip all the way through in order to hear a pretty funny comment about why Kris is encouraging her daughter to keep taking these kindsof photos.

Elsewhere on this Sunday"s new episodes, Scott Disick will yell at Kourtney and lots of other things will happen that were definitely not pre-arranged and written by producers.

Click PLAY on this page"s video to watch Kim make someone else snap her selfie.

For shame, right?

Jax Taylor Degrades Younes Bendjima with Gym Selfie, Mocks Him for Slumming It!

Barely over a week ago, Younes Bendjima and Kourtney Kardashian broke up — and it was ugly.

Now, Younes is no longer her boyfriend or boy toy. He’s just another young hottie trying to make it.

Vanderpump Rules star Jax Taylor spotted him “slumming it,” and couldn’t resist rubbing a little salt into the wound.

Jax Taylor bumped in to none other than Younes Bendjima at the gym. 

At least, he noticed that Kourt’s very recent ex was also there, keeping his body in model shape.

(A lot of celebrities end up using the same gyms — a lot of regular, run-of-the-mill L.A. residents use those gyms, too)

Jax, however, was not in the mood to follow any sort of bro code or minor celebrity solidarity.

In fact, he whipped out his phone and snapped a mirror selfie — one that included Younes in the mix.

Jax added in a caption to needle Younes.

“When kourtney kardashain dumps you, ” Jax wrote. “And you have to slum it like the rest of us at a normal gym.”

It sounds like Jax does not think much of Younes’ recent lifestyle of being Kourtney’s kept man for two years.

“No more [Fiji] diamond water either,” Jax teased. “Got to drink that smart water now.”

That’s right — he even made fun of Younes’ water bottle.

Some might point out that Jax is being a little hypocritical.

First of all, though Younes swears he never cheated on Kourtney, it’s believed that cheating accusations are central to their split.

If Jax thinks that this makes Younes the bad guy … well, Jax has zero room to talk.

Second of all, Jax has an estimated net worth of $ 500,000 — and some believe him to be the wealthiest non-Lisa star of Vanderpump Rules.

A reality star worth a half-million doesn’t really qualify as “the rest of us.”

And we’re guessing that any gym that he might attend wouldn’t qualify as a slum.

“They really want me to be the bad guy,” Younes has commented on social media.

“F–k your Hollywood bullsh-t,” Younes wrote, lamenting that a person “cant have fun with your friends no more.”

Younes’ commentary even took an accusatory tone, asking: “dailymail Where are my 12 other friendssss? Nice catch tho.”

“Once again you guys failed,” Younes proclaimed. “I’m not attached to this ‘life’ so you can’t touch me.”

“I know who I am where I’m from and where I’m going and that bothers you,” Younes declared. “Only one opinion matter the one of my lord. Have a wonderful day.”

We’re not sure exactly why Jax decided to potentially start a beef with Younes.

But it’s clear that he wanted to roast the erstwhile boy toy and didn’t really care who knew.

Younes doesn’t really come across as a loser in this narrative. It looks like he’s still living a decent lifestyle.

And, unless Kourtney (or, more likely, Kris) decides to blackball him in the industry, Younes has plenty of exposure to boost his modeling career.

Plus, Younes might write a tell-all book. That would be one way to cash in — but it would also be the way to guarantee that Kourtney never takes him back.

Lisa Rinna Celebrates Turning 55 With Nude Selfie

Wednesday, July 11, was Lisa Rinna’s birthday. The The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is now 55 years old.

She decided to celebrate by snapping a selfie so naked that it is no longer on Instagram. But you can still see it — the internet is forever.

Fair warning: the image below is not safe for work. There are nipples in play.

Lisa Rinna has been nude on Instagram before.

This time, instead of a topless mirror selfie, she took the full-bodied approach.

She snapped a photo of herself at a window.

You can see through the window, but you can also see the reflection of her dynamite body in the glass.

It’s not just a silhouette, either. Her nipples are right there, staring you in the face.

And you don’t have to take our word for it.

As we mentioned, that image is not safe for work. Or for children.

It is also not safe for Instagram. She hasn’t been banned, but that photo is gone from Instagram.

But not gone from our hearts. Or, of course, from the internet.

She had captioned the Instagram selfie “birthday suit,” and she was not kidding.

It’s not the only photo featuring her trim figure and a window that she’s shared to Instagram in recent days.

Lisa also followed up by posting a caption reading:

“Happy F–king Birthday to ME!”

That’s the spirit!

To show that she was very much in the birthday mood, she followed those words with six cake slice emojis.

Though we somehow doubt that Lisa ate quite that much cake on her birthday, she has every right to do so. She’ll turn 55 but once.

Lisa Rinna is drop dead gorgeous.

Acknowledging that is like saying that the sun is bright. Just as the sun douses us with unwanted heat, light, and ultraviolet radiation, Lisa can also be problematic at times.

Less than a year ago, Lisa — for unknown reasons — decided to tweet “All Lives Matter.”

We don’t really understand why she decided to add her voice to the rallying cry of those who feel weirdly threatened by the assertion that Black Lives Matter..

Perhaps she was looking to stir up controversy and accusations of racism, and decided that her husband Harry Hamlin wearing a swastika was too subtle.

Still, everyone is growing and learning as a human being.

Lisa Rinna might not look 55, but she’s experiencing time just like the rest of us — and learning from her experiences.

So perhaps she’ll come around to issues that she didn’t quite understand with time. Or perhaps not.

Either way, the fans and followers of this Real Housewife hope that she never, ever stops posting nudes. She worked hard for her incredible body, and she should feel free to show it off whenever she likes.

(Whether it is her birthday or any other special occassion)

Instagram, however, would probably prefer that she keep her nipples to herself when using their social media platform. They have rules.

Spoilsports.

Sarah Hyland Shares Shocking Selfie, Explains Why She Was "Torn From Work"

Without getting into specifics, Sarah Hyland has opened up like never before about her health problems.

And our heart aches for the Modern Family actress as a result.

Over the past several months, Hyland has often had to combat chatter that she has an eating disorder, as fans have reacted with shock and dismay over her frail appearance.

The 27-year old has never discussed in great detail exactly what affliction she unfortunately has, but Hyland has confirmed she underwent a kidney transplant in 2012.

In a 2015 interview with Seventeen Magazine, she said simply that she was “born with so many health issues.”

These issues apparently struck again in a frightening manner this week, considering what Hyland shared on her Instagram Story yesterday, which just happened to be National Selfie Day.

(Yes, this is evidently an actual day now.)

“Sometimes a selfie is more than just a good angle or feelin cute,” Hyland wrote as a caption to the disturbing image below.

“This time for #NationalSelfieDay, I’ve decided to share my truth. As painful as it is.

“So here is my face that was torn from work against my will. But I’m very grateful it was. Health should always come first.”

As you can see, Hyland’s face is horribly and, we assume, painfully swollen.

In a second Instagram snapshot, Hyland wrote that she was hospitalized on Monday, June 18 — and added that her beloved canine, Boo, knew something was amiss right away.

“Can’t wait to come back to my precious angel princess. She’s perfect and knows exactly what I need at all times,” Hyland penned alongside a video of the dog giving her kisses, adding:

“This was taken this past Sunday. Day before hospitalization. She was literally telling me to get treatment.”

Again, it’s unclear exactly what is the matter with Hyland.

But it’s clearly pretty serious.

With Modern Family on hiatus, the actress was working on the comedy movie The Wedding Year when she became ill, an insider tells Us Weekly.

This latest incident comes just over a year after Hyland blasted critics who scoffed at her weight.

“My circumstances have put me in a place where I’m not in control of what my body looks like,” she angrily Tweeted at the time, emphasizing:

“I am working hard to maintain my weight by eating as much protein as possible and continue to be STRONG and healthy.

“There’s no need to worry! I’ve been down before and I’ll probably be down again in my lifetime but I’m steadfast and solid and will conquer my obstacles.”

Sadly, Hyland also has had to deal with tabloid speculating in the past about her appearance and whether she has had any plastic surgery.

“THIS MAKES ME SO MAD to have [doctors] give their opinion ON MY FACE is absolutely ridiculous and degrading,” she tweeted in November, appropriately adding:

“F-ck off.”

In this same (justified) rant, Hyland touched on her ongoing health struggles:

“I have had the worst medical year of my life and to create an entire article surrounding the question of if I’ve had plastic surgery is the MOST insulting thing.

“Adding insult to injury, you have NO IDEA what I have been through. And I have somewhat addressed these rumors already.”

Addressing the magazine Life & Style, which ran the report questioning her looks, Hyland concluded:

People like you are the reason why young girls need to alter their face. MY face has been altered by LIFE SAVING medication. Take your “journalism” and use it for some good. FOR ONCE.

Perfectly said, Sarah.

We really hope you feel better soon.

Farrah Abraham Shares Shower Selfie of Daughter, Can"t Stop Failing at Motherhood

Farrah Abraham is … she"s just so … it"s like she"s always …

Look, she"s just a lot, OK? She"s a lot to handle, she"s got a lot going on, and it takes a lot to comprehend how she even exists in this world.

Lately — or, all right, for nearly the entire decade or so that she"s been famous — it seems like she"s really been intent on being the biggest mess she can be, and we appreciate that.

Except her wild and crazy decisions have had quite the impact on her daughter, Sophia … and that"s not so cool.

In the past few months, Farrah"s been making increasingly poor parenting choices, so now seems like as good a time as ever to do a retrospective on her biggest fails, right?

Buckle up, because this one"s going to hurt.

1. The Dream Team

This is Farrah and Sophia. They travel the world together, getting into all sorts of shenanigans. It is weird.

2. Plane Shower!

Here’s the most recent shenanigan, and the inspiration for this look back on all of Farrah’s fails — our girl actually thought it was a good idea to take a photo of her nine-year-old in the shower and put it on Instagram. For real, she thought that in her head. And then she did it.

3. Juice … or Not?

Also this month, we saw this photo of Sophia drinking this fancy beverage. It turned out to be juice infused with gold flakes, but you know what most people thought it was? Booze.

4. YIKES

And shortly before THAT, Farrah was with Sophia in France, and Sophia shared this photo on Instagram. With the caption “I love my mamas booty.” Because that’s normal.

5. But Why?

You might be thinking that that’s a whole lot of weirdness for such a short span of time, but let’s not forget that back in April, Farrah thought that a good mother-daughter activity would be butt injections. She was the only one who got the procedure at least — Sophia just filmed it all for posterity. Still … why does this have to happen at all?

6. Nope Nope Nope

Perhaps the most disturbing moment (so far this year, anyway) happened back in February, when Farrah admitted that she and Sophia run around naked together. And they take pictures.

Cardi B Stuns With Makeup-Free Selfie and Natural Hair

Cardi B is talented and beautiful. So beautiful, in fact, that fans don’t mind learning the position in which she got knocked up.

But though she’s known for her carefully manicured looks, she’s showing fans another side of her that few have seen.

Take at look below at her make-up free, natural haired selfie. She’s gorgeous.

Though she had appeared in the past on Love & Hip-Hop: New York, Cardi B was catapulted to becoming a household name with her hit single, “Bodak Yellow.”

After being entranced by her music — the lyrics, the hook, everything — a lot of people were drawn in by her looks.

Cardi B is hot. She just is. You can tell from the photos.

When someone’s looks are tied to their brand, as is so often the case, they seldom let people see them with their guard down.

Like a growing number of celebrities, Cardi B plays by a different set of rules.

Take a look at her makeup-free look and her big, natural hair.

She looks great!

She looks different, but certainly not unrecognizable, which means that she’s doing right by herself when she does her makeup.

Cardi B captioned this photo:

“Knock me down 9 times but i get up 10 bitch!”

From the flow, that actually sounds like it would be a perfect lyric for “Bodak Yellow.”

But the line is actually from another song of hers, “Get Up 10.”

(Logistically, one assumes that Cardi B got up once before any of the nine knockdowns occurred, which would explain in the discrepency between how many times she is knocked down and how many times she arises)

Showing herself with her natural hair — well, straightened to some degree, but mostly natural — is actually a big deal, in a way that sharing a makeup-free snap is not.

Because women of color living in the Western world have had their appearances critiqued and controlled for centuries, forced by white supremacy to conform to European beauty standards.

Cardi B may play that game with her public appearance, but this photo is a powerful and important reminder that she has a lot of hair, and that she has to put in a great deal of work to make it appear as it does in public.

(When she isn’t wearing a wig, that is)

Recently, Cardi B announced her pregnancy.

She is pregnant by her fiance, Offset.

Initially, many of her fans grew concerned when she became engaged so quickly after skyrocketing to fame.

They wondered if Offset was hitching himself to her before it really hit home for her what an incredible future her career has in store.

(Doubts were magnified when a woman came forward claiming to be Offset’s baby mama … and Offset’s refusal to take a paternity test)

Many of those concerns have vanished as fans are enthusiastic for Cardi B to become a mom.

Cardi B’s selfie is inspirational and we’re so glad that she elected to share it.

That does not mean that we don’t like any of her other looks.

Like all women, and also all other folks, she is entitled to be the author of her own appearance. That means that she can wear as much or as little makeup as she likes.

So long as she keeps churning out excellent music, we’ll keep listening.

Speaking of which, if you’ll excuse us, we need to listen to “Bodak Yellow” one or ten times.

Brandi Glanville: I Can Totally Explain Why I Tweeted a Nude Selfie!

It looks like Brandi Glanville has been drink-tweeting again. We’ve all been there, but most of us don’t post nudes while we’re at it.

In the tantalizing thirst trap that Brandi tweeted and deleted, the reality star is wearing nothing but a pair of panties. And she’s barely wearing those.

See the steamy pic and her explanation for why she posted it in the first place, below.

Accompanying the initial photo, Brandi wrote:

“Having an @kourtneykardashian sexy mom moment.”

While Kourtney is undoubtedly both a mother and very sexy, it’s kind of funny that she’s the touchstone — at least in Brandi’s mind — of hot moms.

Brandi then makes a little dig at Kourtney, but immediately makes it clear that it’s all in good fun.

“I named my son Mason first jk. Mad love.”

Brandi has since deleted the original tweet, but a cropped version of the sexy photo survives.

Take a look:

She looks incredible.

Unfortunately, the backlash that she received was enough that she felt the need to not only delete the tweet, but explain herself to her fans and followers.

Under an image of her book, which is not-so-coincidentally titled: Drinking & Tweeting and Other Brandi Blunders, she writes:

“Sooo this happened last night :/”

Hey, there’s no need for shame, girl.

“I guess it’s #1 because it’s still an epidemic anyway they are just boobs.”

She’s absolutely right. It’s sad that some people can’t handle the hotness.

“Ugh live and learn #drinking and tweeting.”

Look, if drinking and tweeting were a crime, we’d all be in jail.

Brandi has shown her stuff on social media before.

But she continues to explain her mindset when she shared that nude selfie.

And honestly … it’s kind ofa  bummer.

“I was having a mom of two and not bad for 45 moment after a crappy date.”

That crappy date may have been with a man named “Aaron,” based upon her previous tweets.

This is where it gets sad.

“Sometimes we all question wether we’re still desirable or not.”

Brandi is notoriously hot. We wish that she weren’t so plagued by doubts.

Recently, Brandi made peace with her long-time adversary, Leann Rimes.

While obviously, a woman cannot “steal” another’s husband unless she literally kidnaps him, Eddie Cibrian did cheat on Brandi with Leann and then leave Brandi for Leann.

That was followed by Leann seeming to flaunt her relationship with Brandi’s children on social media.

Many perceived that as a directly hurtful jab at Brandi, and it went on for years.

But now, they’ve totally buried the hatchet. And the results are beautiful — and definitely what’s best for the children.

However, just because Brandi has made nice with her ex and his wife doesn’t mean that her life is free of troubles. She’s still looking for love.

We don’t know what made her feel like she wasn’t desirable.

Perhaps it was that she didn’t get the impression that this guy — whose name may have been Aaron — was into her.

Or maybe he flat-out told her that he didn’t want to date her again.

It’s even possible (again, just possible) that the two hooked up but he found himself unable to perform, and Brandi somehow interpreted that to mean that she was not desirable.

Or maybe the guy was just obnoxious and she found herself wondering why she can’t find a decent guy. Who knows.

We wish Brandi better luck next time. She’s gorgeous and she deserves to be happy.

Kim Kardashian Posts Underwear Selfie, Gets Slut AND Mom Shamed!

In many ways, Kim Kardashian is the embodiment of the American dream.

Now, before you go hurling rotten produce at your computer screen or tossing your mobile device into a dumpster and then lighting the dumpster on fire, hear us out:

Kim came from a reasonably well-off family, it’s true, but who could have ever predicted she would grow up to be one of the most famous women on the planet?

In her early twenties, Kim was basically Paris Hilton’s errand girl.

By the time she reached her thirties, Kim had not only eclipsed Paris in terms of fame and fortune, she’d become a bonafide international icon and a one-woman media empire.

These days, she continues to rise to new levels of fame, all while raising three children and remaining in flawless physical condition.

We point all of this out only to highlight how absurd it is that Kim still gets ragged on by basement-dwelling trolls every time she posts a pic that they deem too risqué.

Kim posted the above photo to Instagram this week, along with a caption reading:

“Found this pic I took in the bathroom on set of My @calvinklein shoot #MyCalvins #ad”

Now, in terms of Kim Kardashian underwear selfies, this one is pretty tame.

Nevertheless, the trolls and haters came out in full force to 

Mom-shaming Kim is one of the internet’s favorite activities, but this pic seemed to bring out all manner of trash-talkers.

There were the plastic surgery-shamers, who said things like:

“She looks a bit more natural here. Is this an old pic?”

And then there were the classic body-shamers who like to pretend that 1. Kim would ever show any interest in them, and 2. They would totally pass if she did.

“If u still looked like this id crash but u garbage now,” wrote one such troglodyte.

And then there are those who seem to completely misunderstand the nature of Kim’s career and social media presence:

“Will your thirst ever be quenched?” these people ask, ironically quenching their own thirst in the process.

Folks, allow us to explain something important:

It’s not called “thirst” when you’re just carrying out the basic requirements of your job.

This is what Kim does for a living.

She identified the pic as an ad, which means she got paid (probably a staggering sum of money) to post it.

On top of that, this is how she’s amassed the following of tens of millions of fans that allows her continue cashing in on this sort of thing.

But please, continue telling us how taking a selfie in front of a mirror makes her a bad mom.
