Katie May Dies; Model Dubbed "Queen of Snapchat" Was 34

Katie May – the model who was so popular on social media that she was dubbed the “Queen of Snapchat – has passed away at the age of 34.



Earlier today, we reported that May had suffered a stroke and failed to regain consciousness.


Initial reports indicated that she was in critical condition, but due to to her youth and lifelong dedication to health and fitness, family and friends expected her to recover.


Moments ago, TMZ reported that Katie has passed away, leaving behind a 7-year-old daughter.


Sources say Katie had no serious pre-existing health conditions, and the stroke was caused by an undetected blockage in her carotid artery.


A veteran of the modeling world, May’s work appeared in such iconic publications as Playboy and Sports Illustrated, but it was on the Internet that she really made a name for herself.


With nearly 2 million followers on Instagram alone, May was more popular than many household-name supermodels.


Sources say her family made the difficult decision to take Katie off life support this evening after they were informed that she was brain dead.


She reportedly passed away surrounded by family and friends.


A GoFundMe page has been set up to raise money for Katie’s orphaned daughter. A message on the page reads:


“Anyone who was lucky enough to know Katie May was truly blessed by her incredible heart, mind and soul. She was an inspiration and a guiding light to so many people in this world…Her daughter was Katie’s whole life, so please help Katie and her family by donating money.”

He was 41 years old.

According to local police in Greenville, North Carolina, Mirra was found inside his truck with apparent self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the head.


The husband and father of two kids hosted two seasons of MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge and once held the record for the most X Games medals.


Mirra had been in the area visiting friends.


Just a few hours before his body was found, a photo of Mirra and his wife together appeared on the athlete’s Instagram account, along with the caption, “My Rock! Thank god.”


Here it is:

Said Allen Thomas, the Mayor of Greenville, via statement to a local ABC affiliate:


“We mourn the loss today of a great friend and wonderful human being who touched the lives of so many around the world with his gift.


“He called Greenville, North Carolina, home and was as humble a guy talking with kids on a street corner about bikes as he was in his element on the world stage. A young life with so much to offer was taken too soon.”


With police looking further into Mirra’s death, fellow BMX legend T.J. Lavin mourned his friend as follows:


“I just wish he would have called me. I would have jumped on a plane in a second. There’s always another way. If anyone needs help, just please get it. I feel sick about this.”


Snooki and RuPaul Recreate Kanye/Wiz Twitter Feud: WATCH!

Last week, the general public was treated to the most entertaining piece of theater in recent memory: the Kanye West – Wiz Khalifa Twitter feud.


And now, we have an amateur director and two budding thespians already doing a remake.


On the latest episode of Kocktails with Khloe, host Khloe Kardashian gives guests Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and RuPaul a script containing the rappers" tweets and asks them to act out the beef.


RuPaul takes on the daunting role of Kanye while Snooki attempts to portray Wiz, and what plays out is nearly as pathetic as the original tweeted war.


Snooki, clad in dark sunglasses and a beanie, just kept rambling nonstop in what Khloe identified as a Jamaican accent, which is strange because Wiz is from North Dakota.


This is an excellent lesson in how TV and movies distort reality.


Playing Kanye, RuPaul should"ve had most of the lines, because the number of tweets unleashed by the rapper totaled 27 while Wiz had remained silent most of the time.


Snooki did confess to drinking in the green room prior to the show, so blame it on the alcohol.


Khloe"s other guests, sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kylie Jenner, seemed to get a real kick out of watching the two have a go at it.


Khloe praised her guests" dramatic turns, even though they went off script. 


"This is the first time on Khloe"s Kocktails Theater that there is improv," said the host. "And Nicole, you turned Wiz Khalifa into a Jamaican rapper and I appreciate that."


"There is no winner tonight because you guys are so good. It"s a tie."


This sad showing could be one hint as to why we keep hearing rumors about the show being canceled.

Kim Kardashian"s New KIMOJI Glorify the Ratchet Life and Are Gross

When the first set of Kim Kardashian’s “Kimoji” came out, they were about what you’d expect. Emoji of Kim’s face, butt, boobs, waist, and boulder of an engagement ring.



But the Kimoji Pack 2 has now hit the App Store, and they are everything you don’t want your daughters to see. In animated gif form.


Rated M for mature, the disturbing little cartoons feature Kim dancing in lingerie on a stripper pole, slapping a dark-haired woman with her bag, passing out cash and shaking dat ass in a thong.


They also contain Valentine’s Day candy heart emoji with adorable sayings like, “Baby Dick,” “Pull Out,” “Send Nudes” and “Ratchet.”


Kim should feel so proud about making this uplifting, positive contribution to today’s youth.


We can only imagine her and husband Kanye watching with admiration and chuckling as their kids North and Saint send these to one another on their baby cell phones.


Then one calls the other a THOT and Kim knows her work here is done.


Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian plugged the app update on Instagram by sharing a screenshot of a conversation using Kimoji.







“Shut the f*ck up!! Get your free Kimoji update!! They are animated now!!!! It’s wild!!” she wrote in the caption.


Wild, indeed. And gross. Because someone has to say it, so I’m saying it.


It’s gross. 



We encourage these to be used by nobody. If you want to see the first batch, which is relatively tame by comparison, well, we’ve got a slideshow for that:
