Teens Create App To Document Police Violence In Wake Of Michael Brown Shooting

by 21 mins ago

In the wake of the fatal shooting of Ferguson, Missouri, teenager Mike Brown, three Georgia teenagers have created a new app to document police abuse, as an effort to bring communities together to problem solve.

With “Five-O”, users can submit any details of a particular incident, including officer names and ratings. A community board within the app will help facilitate discussions on how to respond with the local police.

Caleb Christian, 14, and his two sisters Ima, 16, and Asha, 15 explained to Business Insider why they decided to develop and launch the application.

“We’ve been hearing about the negative instances in the news, for instance most recently the Michael Brown case, and we always talk about these issues with our parents. They always try to reinforce that we should focus on solutions,” Ima Christian said. “That made us think, ‘Why don’t we create an app to help us solve this problem?’”

They’re also hoping to shine a light on officers who users have positive experiences with.

Caleb assures there’s no reason to doubt their young ages. “You’re never too young to learn, and you’re never too young to make a difference.”

The siblings developed the app themselves through their own mobile software company, Pinetart, Inc. It’s currently available for download on Android devices.

Katy Perry Got Her Nose Pierced, And You Can Watch It Happen

by 8 hours ago

Katy Perry decided to take a break from the Prismatic World Tour to punch a little hole in her face. Well, nose, specifically. The “How We Do” singer took to Instagram to share an up close and personal account of deed, complete with a wincing “Ow!” that apparently made the piercer nervous.

“Last time I did this I was on my own with a safety pin & cube of ice @ 13,” Perry wrote. “This time I thought it was best I left it to the pro’s. Sorry mom (again)”

Oh girl… I know where you’ve been. If anyone’s going to put a hole in your body, it’s definitely best left up to the pros.

Katy hasn’t revealed the jewelry just yet, but I’ve got 20 bucks that says it’s going to be a teeny, tiny slice of pizza. After all, she needs to keep those accessories proper.

Katy Perry was recently nominated for a 2014 MTV Video Music Award in the Best Lyric Video category for “Birthday.” She’llface off against 5SOS, Demi Lovato, Austin Mahone and Ariana Grande for the coveted Moonman.

Jennifer Lawrence makes a cameo appearance as a bewildered student lovingly dubbed “Sweet Tits” by a half-dead Wolfman. Check it out for yourself, and don’t say I didn’t warn you:

Justin Bieber Could Use A Few Boxing Tips

by 34 mins ago

Well, well, well… It looks like Justin Bieber is following in his friends’ footsteps. Typically a sideliner to Floyd Mayweather Jr‘s fight training, the Biebs has decided to glove up himself and jump in the ring.

There’s just one little problem: Unlike what he captioned in the post, boxing isn’t “just cardio.” Cardio is that run through Hollywood you took with your buddies last week. Here’s some tips for how the fitness buff can perfect his form:

Keep Your Gloves Up
This trainer is a really nice guy. Justin fails to protect his face after every hit, leaving himself wide open for a pop straight in the kisser. As a novice boxer, work on protecting that pretty face before perfecting your hook.

Extend Your Jab
I know you’ve got some power in that arm, JB. Use it! Don’t keep that jab all tucked up. It’s a powerful tool.

Power Through Your Cross And Hooks
A boxer’s best weapon is a strong right hook. It’s the knock-out punch. Try throwing your whole body into it and you’ll quickly realize that boxing isn’t just a cardio burn. And when you’re shoe-shining hooks, keep your elbows up to drive more power from the shoulder.

To Justin’s credit, he admits he’s “not a boxer,” but with so many friends in the game, he could have access to the best training partners out there. Call Floyd. The champ is bound to have a few tips.

Kim Kardashian Really Hopes The Beyonce/Jay Z Divorce Rumors Aren’t True

by 28 mins ago

While Kim Kardashian’s “Watch What Happens Live” appearance was mostly centered around why her brother Rob skipped the wedding (Spoiler: He was “uncomfortable”), the selfie queen also took a moment to tell us her thoughts on the divorce rumors swirling around Beyonce and Jay Z.

When a caller asked her head-on her thoughts on the gossip, Kim handled it rather well by offering her hope and support for the couple.

“Oh, I don’t know,” she said. “You just always hope that nothing like that’s true, and you just wish them the best.”

Mrs. West also revealed that she and Kanye have never double-dated with Bey and Jay, except for some hangouts during the Watch the Throne Tour.

Robin Williams Brings Comedy To ‘TRL’ In Vintage Clip

by 2 hours ago

Robin Williams was easily a thousand personalities in one. From “Mrs. Doubtfire” to “Good Morning, Vietnam” and “Dead Poets Society,” the charismatic comedian always carried his boatload of characters both onscreen and off.

And as we mourn the death of one of America’s most celebrated actors, we also look back on a life that made the world a little happier.

During his first-ever appearance on “TRL” back in 2006, Williams charmed the audience with his signature voice-character routine. Watch him launch into everyone from an African tribal leader to a good-ol-boy Oil tycoon.

Robin Williams’ Best Off-Screen Moments

Always one to greet his fans with a warm heart, Williams even took time out to speak with a Houston fan via webcam during the same episode. He met Lindsay’s nervous energy with his own hyper excitement and answered a few questions including a reveal of his favorite film work.

“Personally, there’s actually two. One is ‘Dead Poets Society.’ And other is ‘Aladdin,’ just because I had so much fun doing the voice.”

Ariana Grande’s ‘Break Free’ Video Is Weird… Like Really Weird

by 12 mins ago

Ariana Grande finally delivered on her “Break Free” music video promise, and … Wow. She’s gone total Space Babe.

In the 4-minute clip, the pop star takes us on a intergalatic space adventure to free her totally bummed Arianators from Alien-induced boredom. Girl’s got a laser gun and knows how to use it, blasting holes through the toad-faced villains.

Ka-Pow!

Oh hey, there’s also a gigantic robot monster that Grande disarms with her rocket-launching busom. (Katy Perry and Gaga aren’t the only pop stars with chest weaponry, clearly.)

Unfortunately, the robot manages to launch off a device that captures our heroine, sending her straight into the lair of mustachioed super villain. Luckily he just kinda trips into a pit of fire.

After saving the day, Ariana returns to her ship to strip down inside a fancy anti-gravity chamber, because that’s how all superheroes do it.

Finally it’s time to party with Zedd, and frighten the life out of adorable little alien creatures.

All of this really has us wondering what Miss Grande has in store for her “Break Free” performance at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards.

Ariana Grande And Big Sean Slow It Down On ‘Best Mistake’

by 30 mins ago

Ariana Grande might be calling it an “instant gratification” track, but honestly, girl, you’re really just teasing the life out of us with all these My Everything previews.

Grande dropped yet another full-release on (August 12) on iTunes, this time featuring the smooth rhymes of Big Sean. “Best Mistake” walks in the footsteps of records like Rihanna’s “We Found Love,” with the singer dropping heavy lines about the struggle of an on-again, off-again broken relationship.

“Break up / Make up / Total waste of time / Can we please make up our minds / And stop acting like we’re fine,” the pop star cries with a tone that really says, “It’s over, boy.”

Sean follows up in another verse, attempting to mend the broken love with, “I guess time’s wasting / Tick-Tocking / Lip-Locking / How can we keep the feelings fresh / How do we Zip-lock it.”

“Best Mistake” is the former Disney star’s second collaboration with the MC. Sean’s lusty lips made a cameo appearance in Grande and Iggy’s “Problem” video with his background whispers.

The track takes a twisted turn from the album’s party-banger teasers like “Problem,” “Break Free” and “Love Me Harder,” but it continues to hit on a solid theme about hard-to-handle relationships.

My Everything hits shelves August 25.

Miley Cyrus’ Newest Tattoo Will Melt ‘Yer Brain’

by 56 mins ago

Miley Cyrus had a whole day off between her Pittsburgh and North Carolina tour stops, so the singer decided to stroll into New York City and hook up with celebrity tattoo artist Bang Bang for some fresh new ink.

Bang Bang and Cyrus played twinsies by inking a pair of matching crescent moons on their skin. The tattooist chose to ingrain the “BFF” tat onto his thumbs, while Miley slapped it onto her left inner-arm (or elbow-pit, as I like to call it).

The “Adore You” singer also nabbed a second piece of ink from Bang Bang, opting to pay homage to the Flaming Lips with the words “Love Yer Brain” tattooed onto her right forearm.

The hand-scripted tat references Wayne Coyne’s psychedelic track off the Lips 1987 album Oh My Gawd!!!.
