20 Animals So Ugly They're Cute
Pugs scrunching up their little flat faces. A wombat taking a stroll. A blob fish ... blobbing. Sometimes animals are just so ugly that they're actually quite cute.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian Elegant in White While Shopping With Kanye West in Paris
Along with taking in a few runway shows during Paris Fashion Week, the expectant couple have been engaging in some high-end retail therapy—and dressing up for the occasion.
Kim masked her baby bump in a snowy white dress with a whimsical, feather-trimmed skirt while boutique-hopping with Kanye today. She opted for black low-heeled pumps with ankle straps and a white coat.
Their designer stops included Cartier, Kim having proved herself a fan of the celeb-favorite jeweler this morning.
"Day off in Paris! About to go shopping with @jOYCEBONELLi!" Kim tweeted before they set off, also name-checking her makeup artist.
We believe this is what Kanye was referring to when he rapped about "the good life."

Updated integrity system detects and deletes fake Facebook Likes
Facebook has updated its integrity system to automatically detect and delete 'fake' Likes, benefiting both the brands that use the site and the social network's users.
Facebook Pages will soon more accurately reflect the demographics of users and have a more accurate Fan count, according to a new announcement on the Facebook blog. That's because the social network has updated its integrity system to detect and delete Likes that come from purchased bulk Likes, malware, hacked accounts or deceived users.
"When a Page and fan connect on Facebook, we want to ensure that connection involves a real person interested in hearing from a specific Page and engaging with that brand's content," says Facebook on its Security Page. "As such, we have recently increased our automated efforts to remove Likes on Pages that may have been gained by means that violate our Facebook Terms."
As well as ensuring that Facebook users connect only to brands and Pages they authentically like, the move will enable more accurate demographics for brands and, consequently, the ability to produce more relevant and engaging content.

The truth about cat people and dog people
Are you a dog person or a cat person? It’s likely that you align yourself with one of these labels, and research shows that your preference for one animal or the other reveals a bit about your personality.
Sixty-two percent of U.S. households have a pet, according to the American Pet Products Association. Dogs are the most popular pets with 39 percent of U.S. households owning at least one canine, but cats come in second with 33 percent of U.S. households having at least one cat.
But can our choice of furry friend really say something about who we are? Sometimes.

Oprah Winfrey Tops Our List Of The Highest-Paid Celebrities
Oprah Winfrey may have wrapped up her syndicated talk show last year after a 25-year run, but her empire sails on. Through her Harpo productions, Winfrey still has her hand in Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray and The Dr. Oz Show. There’s her magazine, O,and her satellite radio station.
And then there’s OWN, the struggling cable network that’s currently occupying most of Winfrey’s time. She’s trying to boost ratings with shows like Oprah’s Lifeclass and Oprah’s Next Chapter.

Prince Harry has been on holiday with friends, letting off steam before the next phase of his military duties, sources told ABC News.
The palace said it won't be making any further comments about the nude photos.
"Everybody knows better than to party naked in a room full of strangers without confiscating the cellphones. That's just Hollywood 101," said ABC News public relations consultant Howard Bragman of Reputation.com. "There's always deniability, but once the photos are taken, you're caught."

Is Taylor Swift Turning Into The Next Kristen Stewart After Kennedy Wedding Drama?
Swift was in the news Wednesday for crashing a Kennedy wedding along with her boyfriend, Conor Kennedy. According to the Boston Herald, Victoria Gifford Kennedy, the mother of bride Kyle Kennedy, asked the country singer to leave the wedding twice because she and Conor hadn't RSVP'd with enough time for the planners to prepare for them. It's a move that many music fans and media members might have been hoping for.

Leonardo DiCaprio wants to help Robert Pattinson get over Kristen Stewart
Leonardo DiCaprio wants to help Robert Pattinson get over Kristen Stewart. The Hollywood playboy recently invited the hunky Brit on a boys’ trip, AZ Central reported on August 21.
''Leo invited Rob along on a getaway he's planning when he's in Puerto Rico for the wrap party on the movie he's producing. Leo has been one of Rob's role models for years, and Rob was totally taken by surprise when Leo called him.''
Will Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert Pattinson become Hollywood’s new hottest best friends? It’s not likely Kristen Stewart would approve of this trip, as Leo is known for romancing beautiful models, and lingerie model Kate Upton has recently expressed interest in Rob.
However, if Pattinson and Stewart are not going to reconcile, it seems that Robert should get started living the rest of his life without Kristen.
What are your thoughts on Leonardo DiCaprio inviting Robert Pattinson on a getaway to get over Kristen Stewart? Should he go?

Is Rihanna confused about what love is?
In an emotional interview Sunday night, Rihanna told Oprah Winfrey that she still loves her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, who assaulted her in 2009.
“I truly love him,” she expressed on “Oprah’s Next Chapter”. “The main thing for me is that he is at peace. I'm not at peace if he is unhappy or he is still lonely. I care. It actually matters that he finds peace."
But when HLN’s Dr. Drew watched the footage, he immediately commented on what a physician hears when people make such statements.
“I talked about people identifying with the perpetrators -- here is a great example of that,” he said. “She is not OK if he is not OK, as opposed to being concerned with her own well-being. She has got to make him OK. That's pathological. That's a problem.”

"Expendables 2" favorite to rule weekend box office
Among openers, Whitney Houston's last film, "Sparkle," takes on Sly Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in his first real role in eight years in "Expendables 2." On the family front, the 3D ghouls of "ParaNorman" match up against the gentle fantasy "The Odd Life of Timothy Green."
Reigning champ "Bourne Legacy" is back for its second week, along with ‘The Campaign" and "Hope Springs." And in its fifth week, "Dark Knight Rises" is still going strong.
With the Olympics over, this week's deep lineup provides the best chance yet for the overall box office to return to normalcy for the first time since the Colorado shootings. It's also the last week of summer in which a film is likely to break $20 million in its debut.
