Duggar Family Members RANKED: Who"s #1? Who"s Persona Non Grata?

Who"s your favorite Duggar family member? We all have our opinions, but we"ve ranked them all – including in-laws – from top to bottom.

Behold, the first-ever edition of THG"s official Duggar Power Rankings, with our consensus, #1 Duggar draft pick leading off at the top.

At the bottom? You can probably guess … 

1. Jana

Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. That old cliche is destined to apply literally to Jana Duggar, 26, the eldest daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle and one dubbed “Cinderella” due to her natural beauty, loving personality, and perpetual servitude. While her other siblings marry and have kids of their own, Jana is essentially forced to stay home and take care of her siblings … and nieces and nephews. And yet, she does it with a smile on her face, a sense of humor and the patience of a saint. No wonder she’s said to be prominently featured in new TLC footage featuring the famous family. #FreeJana!

2. Jinger

The spelling of her name is cause for major side-eye, but if you can get past that, what’s not to love about Jinger Duggar? Silly, sassy and (relatively) independent, she’s been a fan favorite for years, and if there were ever a Duggar set to break the mold, Jinger seems like the most likely candidate.

3. Amy

Cousin Amy Duggar – the daughter of Jim Bob’s sister – is only rebellious by Duggar standards. In any other family she would have this #badass label she possesses. Still, the fact that Amy D. isn’t brainwashed, and is actually her own person who speaks her mind gives her automatic entry into the top tier.

4. Joy-Anna

She’s smart. She’s well-rounded. She can dead lift her own weight. She wears shorts (yes, actual shorts)! She’s a well-rounded young woman with a bright future … or at least she could be if she were truly allowed to spread her wings. We’re still holding out home for that (along with Jinger and Joy-Anna).

5. John David

John David, the twin brother of Jana (pictured), is a firefighter and pilot. Also single, he earned major points for disavowing Josh’s actions on Jill & Jessa: Counting On. He’s been in charge of transporting Anna back and forth to see him in rehab, as well.

6. Joseph

Joseph Duggar, 20, is now a student at Crown Bible College in Knoxville, Tennessee. He has also been tied to one of the Bates girls from Bringing Up Bates. Seems like a nice fella.

Martin Shkreli SLAMS Ghostface Killah: I"d Smack Him in the Face Right Now!

In case you’ve been missing out on one of the most hilarious celebrity feuds in recent memory, allow us to fill you in on Martin Shkreli v Ghostface Killah.

You’ll need the background info in which order to fully appreciate this video in which a skinny white kid threatens to smack one of the world’s most famous rappers during a live radio broadcast:

Martin Shkreli Threatens to Smack Ghostface Killah!

You may already know Shkreli as the “Pharma Bro” who jacked up the cost on a life-saving HIV and cancer medication by more than 5,000% while he was CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals.

To many in the hip hop community, however, Shkreli is better known as the dude who paid $ 2 million for a Wu-Tang Clan album. Of course, it wasn’t just any Wu Tang album.

You see, the Wu only pressed a single copy of Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, and until Shkreli shelled out an absurd sum for it, the disc was sitting in a vault in Marrakech, like some artifact from a freakin’ Indiana Jones movie.

But despite his cartoonish, Scrooge McDuck-esque display of wealth, the Wu still had no love for Martin.

In fact, Ghostface pointed out that Shkreli’s nose looks a bit like Michael Jackson’s around the time of cosmetic procedure number 94.

Shkreli got pissed and posted a video in which he threatens Ghostface while a bunch of “goons” pose menacingly behind him.

That brings us today, and Martin’s unintentionally hilarious interview with The Breakfast Club.

There are so many reasons to watch the video above in its entirety that we couldn’t possibly highlight them all here.

• Charlamagne Tha God cals Shkreli a “privileged, entitled prick” like 10 seconds in.


• Shkreli talks about discovering rap while he was managing his first hedge fund like that’s some kind of universal experience.


• The dude admits he bought the Wu Tang album so that people would think he has a big penis!

The highlight, of course, is Shkreli talking tough:

“If you want to talk shit, I’m not the one,” he says, when asked about Ghostface. “If he were here right now, I’d smack him right in the face.”

Yup. Like we said, the whole clip is worth watching. It’s not every day you get to see a man sign his own death certificate.

Leah Messer & T.R. Dues: It"s Over!

Radar Online is reporting that after five months of dating, Leah Messer and T.R. Dues have called it quits.

It was just last September that we learned Messer and Dues were dating, but the couple moved extremely fast.

Though they attempted to keep their relationship on the down-low, fans easily figured out that Leah and T.R. were living together from the clues on the couple’s respective Instagram pages. 

Last week, Leah threw shade at an unnamed ex on Twitter, and many of her followers speculated that she and Dues had broken up.

Leah remained mum on the subject, but Dues confirmed the news in an interview with Radar earlier today:

“If she says she’s single, then she’s single,” said Dues, 32. “I just see her every now and then.”

Thus far, there’s no word on what caused the couple to go their separate ways, but rumors of Leah cheating on Dues with Jeremy Calvert have been circulating for several weeks. 

Like Leah, Dues has two children, and insiders say their kids have spent a lot of time together in recent weeks.

The fact that they’re both raising young ones and had been sharing a home for the past month makes the situation sadder, but at least Leah didn’t get married for a third time, which means she won’t have to pay Dues. 

We’ll show ourselves out.

Brittany Burns, Fiancee of Buffalo Bills Player Tony Steward, Dies of Cancer

Buffalo Bills player Tony Steward revealed on Tuesday that his fiancee, Brittany Burns has died after battling cancer at the age of 26.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, the linebacker paid tribute to his bride-to-be, a former star on the Clemson University rowing team.

“Brittany Ann Steward! Wow BEAUTIFUL is the only way I know you. You have the biggest heart I have ever seen in my entire life.”

While Brittany may be gone from this world, “I promise you that it will live on in me, our family and every single soul you have touched.”

“You are the strongest and most loving soul to step foot in this world,” Tony wrote to his late partner, in touching fashion.

“You have been my rock, my motivation, my heart, my soulmate, my everything since the day I laid eyes on you.”

“Every single day of your life you have been a fighter and I know this because of the unbelievable family you brought me into.”

“We will all honor everything you stand for in life. I will continue to be the person that you always bring out in me.”

“Believe me when I say that I deeply love you with every ounce of everything in me. Love always, Your Fiancé #fightinglikeagirl #fightlikebritt”

According to media reports from Upstate New York, Burns was diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer on December 9.

The couple got engaged in December, which they documented on social media, shortly after Burns was diagnosed with cancer.

Following Burns’ diagnosis, the adorable couple started a fundraiser called “Britt and Tony’s Fight Like a Girl Campaign.”

In an effort to help “other women who are battling ovarian cancer,” they had raised thousands of dollars by the time of her passing.

A press release from the Bills, Tony’s employer, also offered the professional football team’s condolences earlier today.

The team remembered Burns as “an active member in the community through the Buffalo Bills Women’s Association.” 

R.I.P.
