The Reason CBS Passed on That "Nancy Drew" Series? Because Men Didn't Like It
CBS passes on modern ‘Nancy Drew’ series for being “too female,” even though it tested well: https://t.co/Osh3wkvtFQpic.twitter.com/eOhv2sgcdT
— ScreenCrush (@screencrushnews) May 15, 2016
-CBS ordered and shot a pilot for a modern-day Nancy Drew series, and recently it was reported that it would not be picked up to series by the network
-However, today it came out that the reason it was not picked up is because it was "too female" for CBS
-The pilot reportedly tested very well, which is even more confusing why CBS would pass on it because it was "too female"

Caitlyn Jenner responds subtly to the claim she's detransitioning
Despite the ridiculous and unfounded rumors that she's detransitioning, Caitlyn Jenner subtly assured everyone that she is a woman with a selfie captioned with, "The joys of being a woman! sooo worth it. #glaadawards #saturdaymorningfun"
Take that, transphobes!

Note: I'm not a fan of Caitlyn Jenner (she's still extremely privileged and ignorant), but no one would go to the lengths of transitioning just to cover something else up.
Joey Bats gets chin checked by Texas Rangers second baseman after dirty slide
Joey Bautista got caught looking...with the hardest strike thrown all season 😳https://t.co/vl2UB1XUfu
— Fanly (@fanly) May 15, 2016
Long story short:
-Jose Bautista of the Toronto Blue Jays was hit by a 98mph fastball by Rangers pitcher Matt Bush.
-Instead of letting his team get retaliation later in the inning, he took it upon himself and slid into second base in an attempt to take out Odor to break up a double play.
-Odor wasn't having it, decked Bautista and the benches cleared. What ensued was a good ol' bench clearing brawl.

Judging from postgame interviews, Jose seems to be okay and said Odor caught him off guard but he "got him good". You ate it like a champ, Joey.

In a Sea of Warm-Toned Neutral Eyeshadow Palettes, Jeffree Star Releases His Own Colorful One

Who knew that Jeffree Star would make a comeback as a super popular cosmetic retailer and beauty guru after his Myspace days? I'm sure as hell he hasn't changed though, he's friends with MannyMUA, Jaclyn Hill, and Patrick Starr (AKA the guru drama queens) lol. That being said, I really need his Unicorn Blood liquid lipstick in my life.

Why would someone I met for 5 min be so hot and bothered over me.

Kristen Stewart Dances, Holds Alicia Cargile's Hand, Wants to Break Sexist Fashion Rules

It's a requirement for all women to wear high heels at Cannes, but Kristen Stewart disagrees with that rule, calling it archaic. She had paired her ensemble of Chanel blouse and skirt with a pair of flats, but was told that she couldn't enter the red carpet until she changed into high heels.
“It has become really obvious that if [a man and I] were walking the red carpet together and someone stopped me and said, ‘Excuse me, young lady, you’re not wearing heels. You cannot come in.’ Then [I’m going to say], ‘Neither is my friend. Does he have to wear heels?’ It can work both ways. It’s just like you simply cannot ask me to do something that you are not asking him. I get the black-tie thing but you should be able to do either version—flats or heels.”
(This is the outfit in question.)
Have you ever had to follow sexist rules?

UK bookie suspends betting on Tom Hiddleston to be the next James Bond
BREAKING: We've suspended betting on Tom Hiddleston being the next James Bond after a flurry of bets! pic.twitter.com/IGMjBCgwzX
— Coral (@Coral) 15 May 2016
- Coral's spokeswoman issued this statement: "There is no smoke without fire, and following the big gamble on Tom Hiddleston in the last 24 hours, we've had no choice but to pull the plug on the market. Earlier in the year there was a gamble on Idris Elba and Damian Lewis, but nothing has come close to the recent gamble on Hiddleston".
- He was spotted meeting with Bond director Sam Mendes and producer Barbara Broccoli (great name btw) in London last week, allegedly.
- Odds before betting was suspended: Tom Hiddleston from 2-1 to 1-2 overnight; Aidan Turner 3-1; Tom Hardy 4-1; Idris Elba 9-1; Damian Lewis 14-1; Michael Fassbender 14-1; Henry Cavill 20-1; none of the above 50-1.

ONTD, is Tom Hiddleston going to be your new James Bond?
ONTD Original: Pop girls with failed or forgotten solo careers
A*Teens
The Swedish group A*Teens originally debuted as an ABBA tribute band called ABBA Teens in 1998, but they changed their named to avoid confusion. The group had moderate success around the world, but disbanded after the members became adults. Marie Serneholt and Sara Lumholdt, the two female members in the group, both worked on their own solo projects following the group's split.
Marie Serneholt
Marie Serneholt released her debut album "Enjoy the Ride" in 2006, with the lead single "That's The Way That My Heart Goes." Although the song peaked at #2 in Sweden, it wasn't as successful throughout the rest of Europe, and plans to release the song in North America were scrapped.
Sara Lumholdt
In 2007, Sara Lumholdt released the single "Glamour Bitch" through her MySpace under the name Sara Love. The song featured rapper Milano Money and wasn't very popular with her fans, as it featured provocative lyrics. In 2008, Sara flew out to Los Angeles to record her debut album, but plans for its release were scrapped. The album she recorded remains unreleased to this day.
Steps
Steps was a British pop act that debuted in the late 90s. The group achieved a string of hits in the UK before eventually disbanding in 2001. Steps reformed in 2012, releasing their fourth studio album and going on tour in support of it.
Lisa Scott-Lee
Lisa Scott-Lee is the only member of Steps to officially release music as a solo artist. Her debut album "Unleashed" was supposed to be released in 2003, but Lisa was dropped from her label before it could be released. Her album was eventually released in South Africa in 2007 with the name "Never Or Now."
Mis-Teeq
Mis-Teeq was a British girl group that had a string of hits in the UK. Their biggest hit, "Scandalous," peaked at #2 in the UK and was released in the US as the theme of the 2004 film Catwoman. Mis-Teeq released only two studio albums before disbanding in 2005.
Alesha Dixon
After leaving Mis-Teeq, Alesha Dixon had a successful career comeback in 2007 after she won Strictly Come Dancing. In 2008, she released "The Boy Does Nothing," which went on to become an international hit for her. Although Alesha has released four studio albums, only her second album has managed to go platinum in the UK.
S Club 7
S Club 7 was a popular late 90s/early 00s British pop group that quickly rose to fame thanks to their television series. The band is well-known for their marijuana controversy, when Paul, Jon, and Bradley were all caught in possession of weed in 2001.
Rachel Stevens
Rachel Stevens is the prettiest and most popular member of the group. She released two studio albums and achieved five Top 10 hits as a solo artist. Although her music is considered pop perfection by many, she hasn't released any singles or albums in over a decade.
Jo O'Meara
Jo O'Meara is most famous for being a giant racist during the fifth season of Celebrity Big Brother. Nobody cared for her music when she released her solo album, and this is made evident by the fact that Cascada's version of "What Hurts The Most" outpeaked O'Meara's version in the UK.
Tina Barrett
Tina Barrett released her debut solo single "Fire" in 2012. She self-released the music video on her YouTube channel and disabled comments and likes on the video because it was so poorly received.
Girls Aloud
Girls Aloud is the UK's best girl group ever (even better than the Spice Girls). They had twenty consecutive Top 10 hits. Sadly, they never achieved much popularity outside of the UK.
Nadine Coyle
Nadine Coyle is the voice of the group, as she had lead vocals on most of their songs. Sadly, her solo career ended up being a big joke, as she was managed by some dude who was a total hack. In 2010, she struck a deal with Tesco to sell her album in their stores. As expected, her album flopped.
Nicola Roberts
Nicola Roberts is known as the ugly member of Girls Aloud. She released a really great pop record in 2011, but it flopped because she has an awful voice and just like Demi Lovato, she is very dislikable.
Kimberley Walsh
Kimberley Walsh is the absolute most forgettable member of Girls Aloud. She released a flop album of showtunes covers in 2013.
Sarah Harding
In 2015, Sarah Harding released her first official single "Threads." The song sucks. Her best solo track is the song "Too Bad," which was featured on the St. Trinian's 2 soundtrack in 2009.
Sugababes
The Sugababes were an extremely popular British girl group during the Noughties. Just like Destiny's Child, they went through many lineup changes over the years. Their best and most popular single is "Push The Button."
Siobhán Donaghy
Siobhán Donaghy was a member of the original Sugababes lineup. She released two flop albums that were well-received by critics.
Mutya Buena
In 2007, Mutya Buena released her only solo album, "Real Girl." The album reached the Top 10 in the UK and spawned two Top 10 hits.
Spice Girls
The Spice Girls are the best-selling female pop group of all time, as well as one of the biggest British acts ever. The group split up in 2000, after releasing an album without Geri Halliwell. Halliwell's departure in 1998 was one of the biggest celeb scandals of the year.
Victoria Beckham
Victoria Beckham released her first solo album in 2001, which spawned two Top 10 hits. Her second studio album's release was scrapped when her label went bankrupt. Her best song "Let Your Head Go" was the lead single from her cancelled album.
Melanie Brown
Despite having three Top 10 singles, one of which went #1, Mel B's first solo album flopped. She was ultimately dropped from her label, and released another flop album a few years later.
Emma Bunton
Although Emma Bunton released three albums and had seven Top 10 hits, her solo music career has pretty much been forgotten. Her best single is "Maybe."
All Saints
All Saints is the second best British girl group. They released a lot of great songs and had a cool and edgy vibe. They recently released their fourth studio album, which peaked at #3 in the UK.
Shaznay Lewis
Shaznay Lewis has a very distinctive voice and she's a very talented songwriter. She always releases great music. Her only solo album peaked at #22 in the UK, and featured the Top 10 single "Never Felt Like This Before."
Melanie Blatt
Melanie Blatt released her first solo single "Do Me Wrong" in 2003. She was in the process of recording her solo album when she was dropped by her label. In 2005, she released her second solo single and planned to release a solo album independently, but it was shelved.
Pussycat Dolls
The Pussycat Dolls were a highly-sexualized girl group that achieved success during the mid-to-late Noughties. The only member who achieved any sort of solo success was Nicole Scherzinger, who had a string of Top 10 hits in the UK.
Kimberly Wyatt
Kimberly Wyatt achieved some success with her feature on Aggro Santos' single "Candy" in 2010. In 2013, she released "Derriere," which was a giant flop.
Carmit Bachar
In 2012, Carmit Bachar released "Keep On Smiling," which flopped.
Ashley Roberts
In 2014, Ashley Roberts released her debut album "Butterfly Effect." In 2016, Meghan Trainor rewrote and re-recorded Ashley Robert's single "Woman Up" for her album "Thank You."
Jessica Sutta
Jessica Sutta released her debut solo single "Show Me" in 2011, but was dropped by Hollywood Records after the song failed to become a hit. She recently released her latest single "Forever" a few months ago.
Melody Thornton
Melody Thornton has released a string of solo songs, none of which have charted. She is still at work on her debut solo album.

Feminist Humor Site The Toast to Close in July 2016
Feminism, lesbian celebrity fanfic, literary humor, art history, and all things silly and smart will be tragically poorer come summertime-- satire blog The Toast has announced that it will close its doors as of July 1, 2016.
The Toast gently skewered everything from the revered pastures of academia to femslash fiction. Founded three years ago, it quickly became popular with niche corners of the internet and spawned several viral posts like Ayn Ran'd Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,Owl Faces, In Order, and Books That Literally All White Men Own.
The site's founders Nicole Cliffe and Mallory Ortberg cited decreasing ad revenue as a major motivation to cease publication, but also said that they are moving their careers in new directions. (Cliffe is writing for The Guardian and raising two small children; Ortberg now writes Slate's Dear Prudence column and is working on a book of horror stories.)
Noooooo! What websites do you like to visit, aside from ONTD?
