Bill Paxton: Mourned in Very Cool Way by Storm Chasers
At the time of his stunning death over the weekend, Bill Paxton was starring in Training Day, a lackluster drama on CBS.
Over the course of his impressive career, the actor was nominated for three Golden Globe Awards due to his performance on HBO’s Big Love.
To many, however, Paxton will be best remembered for his role in 1996’s Twister, an action movie in which Paxton starred opposite Helen Hunt as a professional storm chaser.
It is against this backdrop that hundreds of real-life storm chasers paid tribute to Paxton on Sunday.
They spelled out the veteran actor’s initials (“BP”) using GPS coordinates on a map across the “tornado alley” in Kansas and Oklahoma.
The “tornado alley” boundaries are not clearly defined, but it spreads across 19 states.
According to John Wetter, who works with the National Weather Service, storm chasers have never before spelled out the initials of a non–storm chaser before.
But the gesture symbolizes what kind of influence Paxton and Twister had on this profession.
“There are probably hundreds, if not thousands, of meteorologists today – myself included – who were impacted by the movie Twister and the role Bill played in that,” Wetter told the Associated Press, adding:
“Twister was kind of the first time in a mass media place the meteorologist became cool, if only for a little while.”
Paxton passed away on Saturday following complications from heart surgery.
It is believed he suffered a stroke.
“A loving husband and father, Bill began his career in Hollywood working on films in the art department and went on to have an illustrious career spanning four decades as a beloved and prolific actor and filmmaker,” his rep said in a statement soon afterward.
“Bill’s passion for the arts was felt by all who knew him, and his warmth and tireless energy were undeniable. We ask to please respect the family’s wish for privacy as they mourn the loss of their adored husband and father.”
The actor is survived by his wife, Louise Newbury, and two children James and Lydia.
He was honored at the 89th Annual Academy Awards during the In Memoriam segment on Sunday night, although not in the video itself because his death took place just 24 hours before the show aired.
Said Jennier Aniston, staving off tears, upon introducing the In Memoriam photo gallery and clip snow:
Tonight, as we celebrate together, we also take a moment to mourn the many legends we lost this past year.
Whether they were a musical prince leading the revolution on a concert stage or a movie princess leading the rebellion in a galaxy far, far away, a force of nature in front of the camera or a force driving it, each and every one was a cherished member of our Hollywood family.
As was beloved actor and friend who left us just yesterday, Bill Paxton. All were loved and all will be missed.
Amen.

Biracial Twins Take Internet by Shocking, Precious Storm
Kalani and Jarani Dean have given new meaning to the term "twins."
Born nine months ago to Whitney Meyer (who is white) and her boyfriend Tomas Dean (who is black), Kalani and Jarani are both precious and adorable.
But Kalani takes after he mom in the skin color department and Jarani takes after her dad.
Yes, this is the rare instance of BIRACIAL TWINS!
According to the BBC, interracial couples expecting twins have a 1 in 500 chance that their children will be born with different skin colors.
Which is actually not as extreme a percentage as we"d have guessed.
“No one believes they’re twins,” Meyer tells Us Weekly. “When we go out in public, people will start looking at them because I dress them identical and I can tell they’re confused.”
But Kalani and Jarani are more than just (cute!) abnormalities.
They were born on April 23, 2016, less than two years after Meyer lost her 2-year-old son, Pravyn, in a drowning tragedy.
“They are my miracle babies,” Meyer tells that same magazine. “J looks exactly like her brother did. They are identical. When I look at pictures of J, I see Pravyn.”
So… pretty amazing all around, we"d say.
See more photos of the twins and learn more about them below:

Hannah Storm Breakd Down Over Death of John Saunders
Hannah Storm was faced with every reporter"s worst nightmare on Wednesday afternoon:
She had to announce the death of a colleague and good friend. On live television.
The SportsCenter anchor was hosting ESPN"s lead show from Brazil, in honor of the Summer Olympics, when the shocking news came down that John Saunders was dead.
A fixture at the company since 1986, Saunders passed away suddenly at the age of 61.
He had served for years as host of The Sports Reporters, whole covering everything at the cable network, from professional hockey to Major League Baseball All-Star Games to college football.
"John was an extraordinary talent and his friendly, informative style has been a warm welcome to sports fans for decades," said ESPN President John Skipper upon his passing.
"His wide range of accomplishments across numerous sports and championship events is among the most impressive this industry has ever seen.
"More importantly, John was a beloved and devoted family man who cared deeply about people and causes, as evidenced by his long-standing efforts as a passionate board member for The V Foundation for Cancer Research.
"He was one of the most significant and influential members of the ESPN family, as a colleague and mentor, and he will be sorely missed.
"Our thoughts are with his loved ones at this extremely difficult time."
Incredibly, this was the second time Storm had been on live television when a co-worker died.
She was also forced to react in the moment when Stuart Scott died of cancer last year.
Watch her handle the responsibility as nobly and as professionally as one possibly can under such a circumstance:

Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston: Dancing Up a Storm at Selena Gomez Concert!
We cannot say for certain at this time whether or not Tom Hiddleston is The One for Taylor Swift.
But we can say the following: The actor is definitely the one Swift likes to dance with on occasion.
Hiddleston and Swift hit the dance floor at the MET Gala in New York City earlier this spring, although fans at the time were unaware there was anything romantic going on.
And perhaps there wasn’t.
It’s very possible the two were merely friends.
But it only took Swift a couple weeks to move on from Calvin Harris to Hiddleston this month, breaking up with the former and then being spotted kissing the latter in Rhode Island.
Since then, there’s been talk that Swift cheated on Harris with Hiddleston.
We don’t know about that.
We do know about this, however: Taylor and Tom totally attended a Selena Gomez concert in Nashville on Tuesday night and they were totally filmed by an attendee together…
… getting down and sort of dirty!
You can see the new lovebirds sharing some moves to the single “Same Old Love” in the video above.
“Taylor invited Tom to go. Tom always wants to please Taylor and show her that her friends matter. Taylor likes that about Tom,” an insider told E! News.
The stars watched the show alongside Swift’s good pal Abigail and her boyfriend, Matt.
Using Harris’ real first name, another source had the following to say to E! News about the TomTay romance:
“Taylor was hesitant to get involved so quickly after Adam.
“But she she felt that Adam was not giving her what she wanted for sometime, so she was ready to move on towards the tail end of their relationship anyway.”
The outlet concludes:
“She felt like she was a little school girl with a huge crush.
“She loves the fact that Tom acts like such a mature man. She loves that he is older. She feels very safe and protected with him. The attraction is very strong.”
We love it.
Go ahead and dance like no one is watching, you two crazy kids.
Even though, you know, the entire world is practically watching.

Erin Storm Dies: Former Bachelor Hopeful, Pilot Killed in Plane Crash
Erin Storm, a contestant on Season 12 of ABC’s hit reality series The Bachelor and a pilot, has died, according to multiple media reports.
She passed away in a plane crash Monday in Los Angeles.
According to the reports, Storm was flying an Airborne XT-912 light-sport, weight-shift control plane and crashed soon after taking off.
Erin was flying out of Hawthorne Municipal Airport.
Byron Mayes, a Best Drilling and Pump, Inc. employee who was working on a tank near the airport, told NBC that he saw the crash.
“It looked like the plane veered up, lost control and hit a couple feet away from the truck, a couple feet away,” he described.
“All of a sudden, my partner started yelling, ‘Watch out, there’s a plane coming!"” Mayes added, noting that he ran over immediately.
Mayes and his coworkers pulled Erin out of the burning aircraft, with her legs on fire and Storm already in a state of cardiac arrest.
When rescue crews arrived, she was transported to a trauma center, and the pilot for Pacific Blue Air was pronounced dead soon after.
According to witnesses, Storm was wearing in a blue Pacific Blue Air (an aircraft training facility) jumpsuit for what would be her final flight.
Storm competed on Matt Grant’s season of the show in 2008; Shayne Lamas was the final rose recipient from the British star that year.
The Venice, Calif., resident was 40 years old.
It’s been a tragic few years for Bachelor Nation, which has also endured the tragic suicides of Lex McAllister and Gia Allemand.
Eric Hill, a contestant on The Bachelorette, died in a paragliding accident not long after appearing on Andi Dorfman’s season.

Kanye West Broke Down Backstage at SNL, Threatened to Storm Out: Report
Kanye West is walking mass of ego mixed with crazy at all times, but lately, he’s been even more Kanye than usual.
It seems the release of his long-awaited studio album, The Life of Pablo, has been putting the rapper/fashion designer/professional D-bag under an unusual amount of stress, and now we’re bearing witness to what happens when Kanye cracks.
The man claims to be $ 53 million in debt.
He’s resorted to asking famous billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg to stop building schools in Africa so that they can lend him money.
Even Kanye’s best friends and collaborators have stated that they believe he “needs spiritual and mental counseling.”
Now, The New York Post is reporting that the many burdens of Yeezus came to a head backstage at Saturday Night Live last week.
Kanye gave two performances as the show’s musical guest, but it seems he very nearly bolted out of the studio and had to be talked into go on stage.
“Just moments leading into the live show, and during the live show, Kanye had a meltdown and threatened to walk off,” says one production insider.
The source claims Kanye freaked out for unknown reasons just as the show was about to begin, then again after his first song, which he apparently wasn’t happy with.
“It had something to do with the set,” says the insider. “Kim, who was in the audience with Kylie Jenner, had to come down. [SNL producer] Lorne [Michaels] had to personally talk to Kanye. There were a few really tense minutes.”
In the end, the show went on (to mixed reviews), but it’s a safe bet that you being seeing Yeezy on stage at SNL again in the near future.
“He freaked out about how the set was arranged,” says the source.
“He was saying he’s ‘the greatest artist.’ He’s having regular meltdowns. Everyone’s walking on eggshells around him. He’s under a lot of stress between the new album and the fashion line.”
We imagine Lorne and company prefer that the laughable shenanigans take place on camera.

Flight Attendant is "Happy" to Leave D.C. Before Winter Storm
For those who were away from their computer, away from their television and definitely away from the East Coast this weekend, a segment of the country was snowed under on Saturday and Sunday.
Thanks to Winter Storm Jonas.
This act of Mother Nature left over two feet of snow on the ground in New York, New Jersey and Washington D.C., while covering plenty of other areas in the Northeast, as well.
Heck, New York City made it illegal to be driving on the roads Friday afternoon, due to public safety concerns.
So it should not have come as a surprise that at least one person was very happy to be aboard a Southwest Airlines flight that same afternoon that was jetting far away from the nation"s capital and impending storm.
We mean this literally.
As you can see below, one flight attendance was so psyched to be departing from the site of the incoming storm that he danced down the aisle to Pharrell"s "Happy" prior to take off from Reagan National Airport to Dallas Love Field.
The funny moment was captured by passenger Tyeler Viel, who quickly sent the footage to her brother, Marc Cota-Robles, an Eyewitness News anchor in Los Angeles who shared it to Twitter.
"Everyone is so happy!" Viel told the Huffington Post. "That video captures the vibe exactly."
We love it.

Beyonce Takes Ciara Birthday Party by STORM
Beyonce attended Ciara’s birthday party in Los Angeles on Saturday night, taking the celebrity-filled shindig by storm.
Literally!
In a photo shared by comedian Jeff Dye on Instagram, we see the superstar singer making like the character portrayed by Halle Berry on the big screen, totally nailing the look of this X-Men hero.
She’s got the white top, the cape and the black headband going, completing the outfit with icy blonde hair and sky-blue contact lenses.
“I met Beyonce tonight and she couldn’t have been more sweet,” Dye captioned the above image. “And share my love of costumes.”
Dye also ended up posing alongside the birthday girl herself and her famous boyfriend.
Take a look below at him, Ciara as Catwoman and Russell Wilson as Batman:
“Me Ciara and Russ celebrating the dirty thirty!” Dye penned as a caption to this photo.
Indeed, Ciara turned 30 years old yesterday, celebrating the occasion with family members, friends and loved ones. But NOT by having sex with Wilson.
God isn’t down with these two fornicating until they get married.
What do you think of Beyonce and Ciara’s superhero-themed costumes?
Which of these beauties would you want to swoop in to your rescue in time of need?
