Bruce Jenner confronts Jimmy Fallon on his show about their past run-in and Jimmy using bad photos of him on the show.
Things get awkward fast.
You better Belieb it!
On Tuesday, Justin Bieber became the first person to reach 40 million followers on Twitter -- and his follower count is still growing.
In fact, the Bieb's followership has practically exploded since he joined Twitter. In September 2009, the teen pop star had only 40 followers, according to Mashable.
But while calling the atmosphere at Sunday’s Canada-U.S. game in Toronto a “positive step forward for women’s soccer,” Leroux revealed she had been racially abused in her birthplace of Vancouver during last year’s Olympic qualifying tournament.
The Canadian Soccer Association, while adding its voice against racism, noted that no complaint was ever filed at the time. Leroux, U.S. Soccer said, had chosen to stay silent.
But Leroux’s open-ended tweet Monday opened up the issue.
“My tweet from this morning wasn’t in response to anything from yesterday’s match at BMO Field. In fact, the atmosphere at the stadium was a positive step forward for women’s soccer,” she said.
“Unfortunately, the type of abuse I have received in the past and via social media for my decision to play for the United States is a step backwards. That is what prompted my response in the heat of the moment.
“It is sad that people are inclined to write these incredibly negative comments, but I am not going to focus on them moving forward. Racism has no place in our beautiful game and we all need to come together to make sure no players are subjected to this kind of treatment in stadiums or on social media anywhere in the world. That said, the majority of fans have been extremely positive and I appreciate their support.”
The rising star, who was booed throughout Sunday’s match by the soldout crowd at BMO Field, scored the final goal in the 3-0 U.S. win.In celebrating her stoppage-time goal, she popped out her jersey to show the U.S. crest and put a finger to her mouth as if silencing the crowd.
On Monday morning, the 23-year-old — who was born in Vancouver to a Canadian mother and American father — took to Twitter to explain her actions.
“When you chant racial slurs, taunt me and talk about my family don’t be mad when I shush you and show pride in what I represent. #america,” Leroux tweeted.The timing of the tweet led many to assume that the racial slurs in question happened at the game in Toronto.
Not so, U.S. Soccer clarified later in the day after the story took off. Leroux’s tweet “was not in response to anything heard” at BMO Field, the U.S. governing body said in a statement.
U.S. Soccer said Leroux “has endured abuse both verbally and in social media,” since switching her international allegiance from Canada to the U.S. in 2008.
“The racial slurs to which she referred in the tweet occurred during the 2012 Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Vancouver in January of 2012 and revolved around her father, who is African-American,” said the statement. “At the time, she chose not to address them.
“Since the match (Sunday), she has received a significant number of tweets that contained racial slurs, and her tweet this morning was in response to the last year and half in which such abuse has occurred more frequently.Sunday’s game, a much anticipated rematch of last summer’s Olympic showdown won 4-3 by the Americans in controversial fashion after extra time, drew a BMO Field record crowd of 22,453.
Leroux drew boos and chants of “Judas” during the Olympic qualifying in Vancouver.
“I know that there are some people who don’t respect my decision,” Leroux said at the time. “And there are some people who do. And not everyone’s going to like you, and I feel like you have to have some enemies in life or else you’re not doing something right. I’m happy where I am.
“I’m happy to wear this jersey, and that’s how it is.”

This is just a post letting everyone know that Sydney Leroux did NOT suffer racial abuse at the game on Sunday but that she was talking about a game that happened last year in Vancouver.
Jordan found himself trapped this week after he leading his team to defeat in this week's challenge: Feeding a horde of hungry elementary schoolchildren. He had a good team, he had a fairly good concept -- spaghetti and meatballs -- but the execution quickly fell apart and he was beaten by Jesse.
The real throttling, through, came during a pressure test back in the "MasterChef" kitchen. Jordan could save himself, or cook for his life. He chose the "B" move, to politely quote Krissie.
But what would you do? After all, this is a competition for a briefcase full of money. Would you choose the honorable thing? Or would you take the easy way out?
Jordan took the easy way out and it is already haunting him: When Luca later cooked his way to immunity, and a chance to submarine somebody in the night's cupcake challenge, he targeted Jordan. He swiped Jordan's stand mixer, forcing Jordan to do it all by hand. (In a way, it all served to prove just what a competitor Jordan is: Even Luca had to admit Jordan's hand-made cupcakes were pretty spectacular.)
It all proves that winning is not everything in "MasterChef." Sometimes, it pays to play it safe and stay in the middle of the pack. So you don't get your head lopped off!
Adriana was sent packing for using canned guava during the cheesecake challenge (C'mon, really? Haven't we seen enough reality TV cooking shows to realize that straight-up canned anything will not fly?!?) Later, Malcolm went home on a dozen cupcakes that were more like a "door stop" than a confection, thanks to a "weird taste" and an overall "gross" texture. Not good!
Would you agree these were the best back-to-back episodes in "MasterChef" history? The first hour was all about pressure, and the second hour was all about entertainment (and some more pressure.)
Introducing chef Gordon Ramsay as your guest celebuchef, the man who only needs 30 minutes (or less) to effortlessly do what it took the rest of the home cooks a frantic 60 minutes to accomplish.
Only problem: Not getting to watch the chef cook for an hour.
But it was plenty entertaining watching him stroll, drink tea, and otherwise let the competitors know who the real master chef is.
Demi Lovato opens up about her past struggle with suicidal thoughts in a recent interview with Rolling Stone, excerpted by Us Weekly.
The 20-year-old singer revealed that she has battled depression since she was just 7 years old—when she first felt the spotlight on Barney & Friends.
"The principal called my parents and made me sign this suicide contract saying that I would not kill myself," she told the mag. "They weren't expecting that so young."
Lovato also revealed that her family gave her a few options following her 2010 rehab stint for mental and physical issues.
"My parents were like, 'You have two choices. We can either shut it down and not talk about it, or you can tell people what's up,'" she recalled. "There was no hesitation, really. I opened up that gate."
The "Heart Attack" singer has embraced her past and explained that being sober and on her own after seeking treatment is "not as scary as I thought it would be."
