Man Arrested For Allegedly Trying To Kidnap A Four-Year-Old Girl In CA! WATCH!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 07:10 PM PDT

This is every parent's nightmare!

Earlier this month, security footage shows Terry Ransom trying to abduct a four-year-old girl from Macias Cellular & Computers in Victorville, CA!

It all started when the girl's mother noticed a strange man in the parking lot prior to the crime.

She told the store's owner:

"She had said that the guy was looking at her from when she got out of her car, but she didn't think he would follow her."

As seen in the video, the man yanks the girl by her arm as she was playing near a candy machine. The mother -- who was also holding an infant -- and another customer (seen in the tank top above) ran after the suspect.

Luckily, the girl was able to break free from the man. According to Craig Battles, a barber next door:

"She was crying. She wasn't screaming. She was really terrified… So when he ran… me, my clients. I was cutting hair. A couple of people was waiting. We all ran around there to see what was going on."

Eventually, bystanders tackled the man until authorities arrived. He was arrested on charges of kidnapping and child cruelty, and is being held on $250,000 bail.

"No, it's not true."

Sarah Silverman Reveals She's 'Lucky To Be Alive' After A Scary Stint In The ICU!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 06:22 PM PDT

We're so glad she's okay!

On Wednesday, Sarah Silverman revealed that she's been off the grid recently because she was in the hospital battling a life-threatening condition!

The funny lady took to Facebook to reveal she was at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center with a dangerous case of epiglottitis.

While the 45-year-old explained she initially thought she only had a sore throat, she ended up staying in the ICU to be treated for the condition that caused her epiglottis to swell and block the flow of air through her windpipe.

So terrifying.

The Wreck-It Ralph alum thanked the medical professionals who treated her, and opened up about the near-death experience, saying:

"There's something that happens when three people you're so close to die within a year and then YOU almost die but don't. (That was me. I'm the one that didn't die.) It's a strange dichotomy between, 'Why me?' and the other, 'Why me?'"

The Sarah Silverman Program star also recounted some of the details from her scary stint in the hospital, adding:

"They couldn't put me fully to sleep for the recovery process because my blood pressure's too low. I was drugged just enough to not feel the pain and have no idea what was happening or where I was. They had to have my hands restrained to keep me from pulling out my breathing tube. My friend Stephanie said I kept writing 'was I in an accident?'"

Whoa.

She also recalled her recovery, writing:

"When I woke up 5 days later I didn't remember anything. I thanked everyone at the ICU for my life, went home, and then slowly as the opiates faded away, remembered the trauma of the surgery & spent the first two days home kind of free-falling from the meds / lack of meds and the paralyzing realization that nothing matters. Luckily that was followed by the motivating revelation that nothing matters."

But the gorgeous gal confessed that she's incredibly overwhelmed by the dedication from her loved ones, sharing:

"I'm so moved by my real-life hero, Michael, and amazing Sissies (blood & otherwise) & friendos, who all coordinated so that there wasn't a moment I was alone. It makes me cry. Which hurts my throat. So stop."

And, ever the comedienne, the New Hampshire native made light of the serious situation by including some funny stories from her hospital stay:

"I couldn't speak for a while and I don't remember a lot of my 'lucid' time, but Amy (the Zvi) told me I stopped a nurse - like it was an emergency - furiously wrote down a note and gave it to her. When she looked at it, it just said, 'Do you live with your mother?' next to a drawing of a penis.
Also, when I first woke up and the breathing tube came out, I still couldn't talk and they gave me a board of letters to communicate. My loved ones stood there, so curious what was going to be the first thing I had to say. They followed my finger, rapt, as I pointed from letter to letter until I finally spelled out, 'Did you see Hello My Name is Doris.'"

Awww!

Well, we're glad Sarah is feeling well enough to joke about her near-death experience. We're just super relieved that she's alright.

Canadian Man Punches Black Bear And SURVIVES!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 06:19 PM PDT

What cojones!

On Sunday, northern Ontario resident Rick Nelson was walking his dog when he saw a little cub nearby.

According to the 61-year-old:

"I sat down on a log and the bear cub poked its head out of the shrub nearby. It was so close I could touch it. It let out a yelp, because I scared the heck out of it… I knew right away I was in trouble… It's calling for mommy."

And mommy did indeed come! Before he knew it, a 300-pound black bear was charging at him!

"The mother was coming full speed… All you could hear was the bush crashing."

Soon, Nelson was eye-to-eye with the animal. Although he had no rocks or sticks to defend himself, he knew boxing moves AND was a former bear hunter!

Rick then swung at the bear but missed, hitting it in the teeth. Then, the bear scatched the man across his face and chest! OUCH!

That's when Nelson knew what he had to do.

"I had the perfect shot to take. I did an underhand and hit it right in the snout."

After he hit the bear, a miraculous thing happened… The cub started to squeal and move away.

"Now it was the moment of truth. What's this bear going to do? Is it going to follow its cub or is it going to come after me?... [The mother bear] turned around and it was snorting blood. It looked at me, and I thought, 'Oh no. Here it comes.'"

Luckily, the mother bear turned around, followed her baby, and acted like nothing happened! Phew! That was a close one!

But Rick doesn't have any hard feelings between him and the bear. In fact, he says their species is totally misunderstood!

"Black bears really aren't dangerous unless you have a cub involved. So sometimes black bears get a really bad rap. Probably they're more afraid of you and [me], than we are of them."

We just hope there isn't a rematch!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 05:34 PM PDT

Go and give 'em all the finger, Iggs!

Nick Young's baby momma is speaking out about that bun in her oven, swearing that the basketball player is the father! In fact, Keonna Green insists the child was conceived while the athlete was cheating on Iggy Azalea.

But, in the wake of the ex's admission, the Aussie artist is paying all this baby momma drama no mind!

The rapper took to Twitter on Wednesday, but not to comment on the child her former fiancé is apparently expecting with his high school sweetheart.

Instead, the blonde beauty revealed that she's focusing on making her new bachelorette pad all fancy, posting:

Atta girl, Iggy!

We love that the sexy songstress is actually excited about her new place! After all, indulging in a passion project, like a home makeover, can be very therapeutic!

Besides, we think Miz Azalea is way overdue for some "me time!"

Hillary Clinton Announces Plan To Make College FREE For Many!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 05:32 PM PDT

Screw the election! We want her in the White House RIGHT NOW!

On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton announced a plan to make college free for families who make under $125,000!

Related: Hillary Clinton Will Face NO Criminal Charges Over Email Scandal

According to her website, the politician understands how important education is to the youth of our country.

"College is a great investment—for students and our economy. But it's a major expense that holds many Americans back well into adulthood. Today, roughly 70 percent of college graduates take out loans to finance their education."

That's why the 68-year-old has come up with a program to make tuition free for those who can't afford it.

"Every student will have the opportunity to graduate from an in-state four-year public college or university without taking on any student debt. Families with incomes up to $125,000 will pay no tuition at in-state public colleges and universities, which covers more than 80 percent of families. The plan will be phased in over five years, but families earning $85,000 or less will immediately be able to attend an in-state college or university without paying any tuition."

However, if you do have to take out student loans, Miz Clinton has got you covered too!

"As president, Hillary will also take executive action to give borrowers a 3-month moratorium on their federal student loan payments. During that time, the Department of Education will help borrowers refinance their loans to save money—whether by enrolling in an income-based repayment plan, consolidating their loans, or taking advantage of reduced monthly interest payments and fees. And borrowers who fall behind or default on their loan payments will have more options to get back on their feet."

Move over Donald Trump! Hillary is totally kicking ass!

Vanity Fair's Profile Of Margot Robbie Gets RIPPED APART For Its 'Sexist Drivel'!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 05:01 PM PDT

Twitter is having an absolute field day with this one!

Following the release of Vanity Fair's profile of Margot Robbie, fans took to social media to lash out against the piece's overwhelming tones of misogyny AND objectification.

Related: Rose McGowan Pens An AMAZING Feminist Essay!

Let's just say it sounds like VF f*cked up here.

While there's a lot to dissect in this article, we'll start off with the author's depiction of the actress which focuses squarely on her looks in a very sexist and even creepy way. Apparently the writer in question, Rich Cohen, felt it was more important to place a hollow emphasis on the 26-year-old's sex appeal opposed to her talent and upcoming movie roles.

Take a gander at a snippet of the "sexist drivel" (below)!

"America is so far gone, we have to go to Australia to find a girl next door. In case you've missed it, her name is Margot Robbie. She is 26 and beautiful, not in that otherworldly, catwalk way but in a minor knock-around key, a blue mood, a slow dance. She is blonde but dark at the roots. She is tall but only with the help of certain shoes. She can be sexy and composed even while naked but only in character."

Inneresting! We can't decide if this piece was stolen from a high school creative writing class or a smitten teenager's diary!

The questionable article went on to describe the Margot as "one of Scorsese's women" in addition to making a bad joke about how the Australian was too "fresh to be pegged".

BRB -- we got to go vomit.

Unsurprisingly, this offensive depiction sparked A LOT of outrage from fans -- check out some of the best reactions to this travesty (below)!

While all of these tweets bring up great points, writer Roxane Gay KILLED IT when she gifted aspiring journalists with this advice:

Perfection.

As for Rich, he has remained silent on the controversy his article stirred up. VF has chosen to keep quiet as well.

So, how do YOU feel about the article?

New Video Shows Alton Sterling Was NOT Holding A Gun When Police Shot & Killed Him

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 04:51 PM PDT

***WARNING: Graphic Content Ahead***

This has got to stop.

On Tuesday, Alton Sterling was pinned down, shot, and killed by two officers from the Baton Rouge Police Department, after a 911 caller claimed a man matching Alton's description was threatening him with a gun while selling CDs.

When officers Blane Salamoni and Howie Lake arrived on the scene, they tackled him to the ground, which is when one of the cops yelled that the father-of-five had a gun.

While he was pinned down in the parking lot, Alton was repeatedly shot, and was tragically killed from his injuries.

In a press conference, the BRPD claimed that Mr. Sterling "was armed," and District Attorney Hillar C. Moore III said:

"The officers feel they were completely justified."

However, new video obtained by The Daily Beast captures more of the controversial killing, and seems to show that Alton was NOT holding a gun at the time he was gunned down.

The clip is incredibly graphic, but if you would like to watch it you can click here.

The video begins with Alton already pinned down by the officers, who can be heard yelling:

"I swear to God if you f*cking move! He's got a gun! Gun!"

The camera is turned away as multiple gunshots go off, but turns back to show the victim shot in the chest, bleeding on the ground.

In the footage, there doesn't appear to be anything in the 37-year-old's hands during or after the altercation.

As Alton is laying on the ground, one of the cops reaches in and removes something from his pocket, but police have neither confirmed nor denied whether a weapon was retrieved in the horrific incident.

Abdullah Muflahti, the owner of Triple S Food Mart where the shooting took place, recorded this new video. The convenience store worker insists that no one was being violent before the police arrived, especially not Alton:

"He didn't even tell me about anything, he usually tells me. He's not that type of person. It would have been a very big problem to pull his gun out."

Even if the object officers removed from the late father's pocket was a gun, it wasn't in his hand during the scuffle, which means it wasn't actually an active threat.

According to Abdullah, Alton had been selling CDs in that parking lot for years, and he can't wrap his head around this terrible tragedy, saying:

"It was a nightmare, it was a nightmare. I kept expecting to wake up."

Especially in light of this conflicting video, we're glad the Department of Justice and the FBI are formally investigating the shooting.

Our hearts are with everyone affected by this devastating loss.

Chelsea Peretti Goes OFF After LAX Worker Keeps Jordan Peele From Boarding Their Honeymoon Flight!

Posted: 06 Jul 2016 03:55 PM PDT

Chelsea Peretti is PISSED. And, rightfully so!

On Wednesday, the Brooklyn Nine-Nine actress revealed that she and Jordan Peele were jetting off to England for their honeymoon, when there was a serious snag in their plans.

After eloping with the Keanu star a little while back, the lovebirds went to LAX to hop across the pond for their romantic trip together.

However, Miz Peretti took to Twitter, ranting about how her husband was not allowed to board with her! WTF?! In a series of since-deleted tweets, the funny lady wrote:

"BIG SHOUT OUT TO THE LAX EMPLOYEE WHO BARRED MY HUSBAND FROM GETTING ON OUR FLIGHT (OUR HONEYMOON) BC HIS PASSPORT PAGE WAS A LITTLE WORN"

We can't believe this! But, she continued:

"SOLO HONEYMOON SHOULD BE COOL TOO!"

Wow! Nothing puts a damper on a honeymoon like arriving at your dream destination without your significant other!

And to make matters worse, the comedienne explained that the ticket agent then tried to offer up some not-so-encouraging words as the lovely lady broke down, because the actress added:

"HE ALSO LOOKED AT ME AS I BEGAN TO SHED SOME TEARS & WAS LIKE 'BELIEVE ME, THINGS HAPPEN FOR A REASON' SO BEAUTIFUL!!"

But that's not all. She posted:

"HE ALSO WAS LIKE (ENCOURAGING VOICE) 'THERES AN 80% CHANCE HE'LL MAKE IT"'

Chelsea summed up her frustration with this sarcastic, snarky tweet:

"GOOD THAT A DANGEROUS EVIL PERSON WITH A SLIGHTLY WORN PASSPORT WAS STOPPED FROM GOING ON HIS HONTEYMOON! UR DOIN THE LORDS WORK SIR"

So upsetting.

But even though the airport mishap was incredibly infuriating, the gorgeous gal attempted to make light of the situation, writing:

"WHO'S IN LONDON? WANNA GRAB A JACKET POTATO AND TALK #BREXIT FOR 5 HOURS? Or cud talk about jam or something. The TSA...etc"

The good news is that one report says Jordan actually ended up getting on the plane. However, Chelsea is hoping her awful experience serves as a cautionary tale to other people with worn passports, tweeting:

Hopefully Chelsea and Jordan can still have a good honeymoon, in spite of the airport inconvenience!
