    Why Are People Putting Hearts On Facebook? ❤️

    People are putting hearts on Facebook to spread breast cancer prevention awareness.  If you’re Facebook feed is anything like mine, it’s filled with ❤️. Scroll to the screenshot to see a message that I received from one of my Facebook friends.  October is actually the official National Breast Cancer Awareness month but social media users don’t follow anyone’s standards.

    Social media has been ridiculed lately.  Online bullying has worsened, leading some users to experience serious self confidence issues.  Some blame Facebook for the fake news being spread on the Internet.  The presidential election may have ended differently if Facebook would have filtered the fake news on the network.

    Why Are People Posting Blue Hearts On Facebook?

    People are posting blue hearts on Facebook to show their support for victims of human trafficking.  The campaign’s intent is to raise awareness about human trafficking.  The video below provides additional information about the blue heart initiative:

    The hearts being share on Facebook remind us that social media can be used in positive ways.  There are people around the world who listened to the advice in their Facebook feed and scheduled a doctor’s appointment.  For some, that doctor’s appointment saved their life.

    While many users are participating in the game, others are expressing frustration:


    The following tweet shows that the game has influenced additional social media trends:


    While it’s difficult to be negative about spreading breast cancer awareness, the following tweet makes a valid point:


    The game is following Snapchat’s logic.  The more exclusive something initially is, the most popular it will eventually become.

    Snapchat started out as a sexting app for teens and now everyone has an account.  The game started out small as a secret and now the hearts on Facebook are trending.

  • Chris Brown Vs Soulja Boy Tickets

    Chris Brown Vs Soulja Boy Tickets

    Chris Brown vs Soulja Boy tickets will most likely be sold on the MGM Grand website.  In the video at the end of this post, Soulja Boy reveals that the fight will be in March 2017.  Soulja Boy then advises his fans to get their tickets right now before they sell out.  The rapper’s video broke the Internet and now has us all searching for tickets to the fight.

    Scroll down to see Twitter reactions from users trying to find tickets to the event.  Rest assured, the tickets are not sold out.  Floyd Mayweather’s promotional firm, Mayweather Promotions, is most likely working with 50 Cent, Mike Tyson, Soulja Boy and Chris Brown to organize the match.

    Scheduling should be too difficult.  Relevant artists like Drake and Future are busy on tour, breaking records.  The Summer Sixteen tour recently surpassed Kanye West and Jay-Z’s Watch The Throne tour to become the highest grossing hip-hop tour of all time.  50 Cent, Chris Brown and Soulja Boy are not currently on tour because they’re worried about fighting.

    If Floyd Mayweather is smart, he’ll have Chris Brown and Soulja Boy sign contracts before the two entertainers realize that people are laughing at them, not with them.

    Soulja Boy hasn’t been relevant since his 2007 hit, “Crank That (Soulja Boy).”


    Soulja Boy has produced numerous hit songs in the last few years, including Nicki Minaj’s “Yasss Bish” and Lil’ Wayne’s “Wowzers.”

    Similar to Brown, in the last few years, Soulja boy has been making headlines for his poor decision making instead of his musical talent.


    Last year, Chris Brown was arrested after a hour-long standoff with police at his mansion in California.


    Soulja Boy has a child on the way and Chris Brown has a daughter named Royalty.  The two entertainers should get into the studio and collaborate on a song together instead of fighting each other.

    Scroll to the Snapcode for Selena Gomez’s Snapchat name!

    Selena Gomez posted several clips on her Instagram stories where she is seen discussing a possible Wizards of Waverly Place reunion.  Scroll to the end of this post to see her videos.  In her first Instagram story ever, the singer is seen with her former Wizard of Waverly Place costar, Davie Henrie.

    David is kind of a big deal when it comes to Selena’s social media presence.  In the video, he reveals that he’s responsible for creating Selena’s Twitter account.  The duo created Gomez’s Twitter account in 2009 and she now has 46 million followers.  They then discuss Wizards of Waverly Place and break the Internet.

    Wizards of Waverly Place was a Disney sitcom that ran from 2007 to 2012.  Selena played Alex while David played Justin.

    Fans of the series are super excited.  Selena ends the video by asking her 106 million Instagram followers what they think about a Wizards of Waverly Place reunion.  The obvious answer to that question is please start filming.

    I think there’s a reunion in the works.  Disney could have asked the stars to share the Instagram story to determine if there was enough interest in the series to develop a reunion.  What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!

    Riff Raff Vs 50 Cent – Will 50 Respond?

    Will 50 Cent respond to Riff Raff? Will there be a Riff Raff vs 50 Cent boxing match? It’s not looking like it.  Jody Highroller aka Riff Raff challenged 50 Cent to a $2 million heavyweight bout.  Scroll to the Instagram video to see Riff Raff call 50 out.  50 has been busy promoting the Chris Brown vs. Soulja Boy boxing match but Curtis Jackson better start training!

    Riff Raff is looking for some attention but 50 can’t knock his hustle.  50 Cent built his career by calling other rappers out.  In the video, Riff Raff reveals that he weighs 215 pounds.  50 weighs about 210 pounds.

    The video below shows Riff Raff challenge 50 Cent to a boxing match:

    50 Cent loves publicity and more importantly he loves money.  Riff Raff turns 35-years-old at the end of this month while 50 is 41.  In 2013, 50 Cent released Formula 50, a workout plan that reveals how the rapper maintains his ripped body.

    The music industry isn’t what it used to be.  50 has lost millions in lawsuits and he’s now worth less than $20 million.  Riff Raff is worth about $3 million.  The rappers need to follow Floyd’s lead.  Mayweather is worth $340 million.

  • ‘Hidden Figures’ Gets Rave Reviews For Taraji P. Henson

    ‘Hidden Figures’ Gets Rave Reviews For Taraji P. Henson

    Finally, Hidden Figures has been released in theaters nationwide and critics are loving the movie. Hidden Figures is getting rave reviews and currently has a 93 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is pretty hard to get.

Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monáe have all been praised for their performances, which is a good sign with the Golden Globe Awards kicking off the main award season on Jan. 8.

    Could Cookie Lyon be nominated for an Oscar? It wouldn’t be Henson’s first Oscar nod — she was nominated for her work in 2009’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Here’s what critics are saying about Henson in Hidden Figures:


    • “Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monáe serve both history and the demands of popular entertainment with serious performances that also have a good sense of humour.” – Toronto Star
    • “Henson activates every scene she’s in, and her byplay with Moonlight standout Mahershala Ali, who plays her dreamy suitor, is as sweet as pie. Do we believe the relationship as presented? Sort of, sort of not, but the actors find their own truth.” – Chicago Tribune
    • “Henson brims with hurt, disappointment, and willful purpose, a woman who’s as proud of her country’s space program as any of the white dudes are, and who knows she has a contribution to make. Of the leads, she’s given the most room to build a character, with scenes of motherhood and an abbreviated romance with a smitten veteran (Moonlight‘s Mahershala Ali).” – The Village Voice
    • “Katherine Goble is the central hidden figure, a mathematical prodigy played with perfect nerd charisma by Taraji P. Henson.” – New York Times
    • “Henson gives Katherine a shy demure nature yet also a true fire when she’s had enough with the prejudiced establishment.” – USA Today
    Hidden Figures is currently in theaters.

  • Soulja Boy Dating Teyana Taylor And Rihanna

    Soulja Boy reminded the world that he dated Teyana Taylor during an interview with Jason Lee of Hollywood Unlocked.  Scroll to the end of this post to see the video.  Soulja Boy explains that he kicked Taylor out his limousine for Rihanna after the 2009 Chris Brown assault incident.  It has been over 7 years since the incident but Chris is still dealing with it.

     

    Teyana Taylor and Soulja Boy dated in 2009.  Soulja Boy has revealed one of the reasons Teyana and Rihanna were beefing.  We’re sure Taylor didn’t appreciate being kicked out of Soulja Boy’s limo.  Last year, Rihanna and Taylor made up.  They most likely agreed that beefing over someone like Soulja Boy doesn’t make sense.

    50 Cent explained that it wasn’t fair for Floyd Mayweather to train Soulja Boy so he called Mike Tyson and asked him to train Chris Brown.

    Chris Brown and Soulja Boy are both idiots for letting 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather dictate their lives.  I have never seen 50 Cent in a boxing match because he knows he’s a rapper, not a trained fighter.

    @FloydMayweather Soulja boy gnna try ‘hit him through the phone’

    — Dad (@AdzSamar) January 5, 2017

    Floyd Mayweather didn’t accept Conor McGregor’s challenge to fight because he knows he’s not trained to fight a UFC fighter.  Chris Brown and Soulja Boy are not trained to fight period.  50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather should be ashamed of themselves for persuading the two entertainers to compete in a boxing match.

     
     
  • Esteban Santiago – Race, Ethnicity, Ft Lauderdale Airport Shooting

    Esteban Santiago – Race, Ethnicity, Ft Lauderdale Airport Shooting

    Esteban Santiago’s ethnicity and race is being discussed on social media.  Santiago is American.  He was born in New Jersey.  His parents are both Puerto Rican.  Esteban killed five people and injured eight at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport.  On Friday, January 7, 2017 at 1 PM, he began shooting random people in a Delta Airlines baggage claim area.

    Witnesses report that Santiago was wearing a blue Star Wars shirt.  Santiago is a 26-year-old who fought in the Iraq war.  The nation’s racial tension is being exposed.  This week, the black teens that kidnapped a white Donald Trump supporter made headlines, leading to a heated debate regarding racial double standards.

    In November 2016, Esteban entered a FBI building in Anchorage, Alaska and explained that voices in his head were telling him to fight for ISIS.

    The FBI sent Santiago to a psychiatric hospital where I think he should have stayed.  He cried out for help but didn’t receive it.

    CNN used a black and white image of Esteban, in an attempt to reduce the racial tension surrounding the incident.

    A Twitter user referred to Santiago as a “white Hispanic” and broke the Internet:

    The racial tension in America is worsening and we must do something about it.  What do you think we should do to reduce the racial tension in the United States and around the world? Share Your thoughts in the comment section below.
