Look who's BACK? Rihanna Is BACK...On Instagram! Her First Posts...
The wait ovah....the wait is ovah...
Rihanna and Instagram have been RIHunited. Late last night, the pop princess' @BadGalRiRi account was reinstated after an almost 6 month hiatus due to some rique photos she posted. And she said 'Hello' to her 12 million followers with a couple of pics.
We never thought we'd miss her and her InstaFoolery, but we did.
She posted the above pic saying, "#RIHunited #badgalback @instagRam".
And she gave us a selfie so we know it's real, saying, "Hellurrr #badgalback".
It's unclear as to what sparked the return, but it may have something to do with her 8th studio album that is rumored to be dropping before the year is over.
We're here for all the bad gal antics we know will get us through this messy winter.
Brittany Maynard the Terminally ill 'death with dignity' advocate DIES!
A terminally ill woman who renewed a nationwide debate about physician-assisted suicide has ended her young life with the lethal drugs available under Oregon's Death With Dignity Law. Brittany Maynard was 29.
Maynard, who had brain cancer, died peacefully in her bedroom Saturday "in the arms of her loved ones," said Sean Crowley, a spokesman for the advocacy group Compassion & Choices.
Weeks ago, Maynard had said she might use the lethal drugs Nov. 1, just a couple weeks short of her 30th birthday. Last week, she said she might delay the day. But she went ahead with her original plan.
Crowley said Maynard "suffered increasingly frequent and longer seizures, severe head and neck pain, and stroke-like symptoms. As symptoms grew more severe, she chose to abbreviate the dying process by taking the aid-in-dying medication she had received months ago."
Before dying, Maynard tried to live life as fully as she could. She and her husband, Dan Diaz, took a trip to the Grand Canyon last month - fulfilling a wish on Maynard's "bucket list."
Maynard has been in the national spotlight for a month since publicizing that she and her husband had moved to Oregon from California so that she could take advantage of this state's Death With Dignity Law. The law allows terminally ill patients to end their lives with lethal drugs prescribed by a doctor.
The debate over physician-assisted suicide is not new, but Maynard's youth and vitality before she became ill brought the discussion to a younger generation.
Working with Compassion & Choices, Maynard used her story to speak out for the right of terminally ill people like herself to end their lives on their own terms.
Maynard's choice to end her life has not been without controversy. Some religious groups and others opposed to physician-assisted suicide have voiced objections.
Janet Morana, executive director of the group Priests for Life, said in a statement after hearing of Maynard's death: "We are saddened by the fact that this young woman gave up hope, and now our concern is for other people with terminal illnesses who may contemplate following her example. Our prayer is that these people will find the courage to live every day to the fullest until God calls them home. Brittany's death was not a victory for a political cause. It was a tragedy, hastened by despair and aided by the culture of death invading our country."
Maynard told The Associated Press last month that she and her husband and other relatives accepted her choice.
"I think in the beginning my family members wanted a miracle; they wanted a cure for my cancer." she said. "When we all sat down and looked at the facts, there isn't a single person that loves me that wishes me more pain and more suffering."
After saying goodbye to friends and family, the 29-year-old with incurable cancer went through with a physician-assisted suicide on Saturday, November 1, 2014.

Oregon was the first U.S. state to make it legal for a doctor to prescribe a life-ending drug to a terminally ill patient of sound mind who makes the request. The patient must swallow the drug without help; it is illegal for a doctor to administer it.
More than 750 people in Oregon used the law to die as of Dec. 31, 2013. The median age of the deceased is 71. Only six were younger than 35.
The state does not track how many terminally ill people move to Oregon to die. A patient must prove to a doctor that they are living in Oregon. Some examples of documentation include a rental agreement, a voter registration card or a driver's license.
Oregon voters approved the Death with Dignity Act in 1994, then reaffirmed it with 60 percent of the vote in 1997.
Four other states - Washington, Montana, Vermont and New Mexico - allow patients to seek aid in dying.
Maynard was born Nov. 19, 1984. She received an undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley, and a master's in education from UC Irvine.
Maynard had an adventuresome spirit. She taught at orphanages in Nepal and also spent time in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Costa Rica. She climbed Kilimanjaro a month before marrying Diaz in September 2012.
She was diagnosed with brain cancer on New Year's Day of this year and was told she had six months to live.
Dez Bryant Signs To Jay Z’s Roc Nation Sports
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant just played a horrific game in his team’s 28-17 loss against the Arizona Cardinals, but he’s still has better news to look forward to now that he’s a member of Roc Nation Sports.
And believe it or not, Jerry Jones was 100 percent against Bryant getting in cahoots with the likes of Jay Z.
Via ESPN: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has joined Jay Z’s Roc Nation against the wishes of owner/general manager Jerry Jones, sources tell ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Bryant hired Roc Nation last week to represent him as he tries to get the lucrative contract he is seeking from Dallas as he now is in the last year of his rookie contract.
Bryant now will be working with new agents to try to get the new contract that has been speculated about since this summer, when many thought a deal could be at hand.
Bryant and Dallas have been close to a deal before but it will be up to Jay Z’s workers to bring it home.
A warm welcome to the newest member of the #RocNationSports family, @DezBryant! #ThrowUpTheX pic.twitter.com/UpiTIvxaLh

I guess what a night?
Cops Telling Las Vegas Strip Clubs To Ban Floyd Mayweather
Las Vegas cops are reaching out to local area strip clubs, telling the establishments to not let pro boxer Floyd Mayweather inside. Good luck with that.
Reports TMZ:
TMZ Sports has learned … the Vice unit of the Las Vegas Metro Police Department contacted multiple strip clubs in Sin City … telling them Floyd and his crew have run roughshod in various clubs, manhandling the girls.
As one law enforcement source put it, “He [Floyd] goes in and pulls a ‘Do you know who I am’ and does inappropriate things with some of the women.”
We spoke with honchos from multiple strip clubs who tell us they will NOT heed the warnings, because they’ve never had a problem with Floyd. Plus, everyone knows he spends a TON of cash.
Sources close to Floyd tell us the boxer is adamant he has NEVER done anything wrong at a strip club — particularly with women — and has no idea why cops would have him in their crosshairs.
Surely there are better ways Vegas PD can be using their resources, no?
Drake and Tyga Subtweeting Again, Blac Chyna and Kylie Jenner Involved
While Tyga actually said he doesn’t like Drake as a person, Drizzy continues to make their pseudo-beef (more like tofu) entertaining thanks to his trademark passive aggressiveness. This Halloween weekend subtweets abounded, with Blac Chyna and Kylie Jenner involved in the mix.
It started with Tyga and Kylie posting their Halloween fits. Because that’s what couples…never mind…
This is when Blac Chyna got involved….
Tyga’s former flame, for now, liked Drake’s pictures on the ‘Gram. So of course Twitter snitched (because that was the point).
Sometime around this point (maybe it was before, but really, wahtever), Tyga reacted with this right here…
That ain't my hoe.
Oh but wait, Blac Chyna made sure to @ Champagne Papi, tagging him in a pic. She trying to holla?
How old are these people again?
Did Christina Milian Break Up With Lil Wayne For ‘Cheating’ With His Ex-Fiancee Dhea? (Tweets)
Remember when we told you that Lil Wayne was spotted with his ex-fiancee Dhea at the Saints v.s. Packers game??? Well it looks like Weezy’s lil reunion might’ve pissed off his “Tina & Tunechi” lover Christina Milian.
As previously reported while C-Milli was proudly posting blood red roses that Weezy sent her on Instagram.
Until Weezy F. Baby was spotted with his ex at a Packer game.
Christina has since deleted the photo and is now tweeting some cryptic messages about someone being “fake” and about her having “no worries.”
HMMMMM!
Usher’s Son Tells Him That He’s Not The Greatest Singer
Usher’s oldest son Nayvid Ely Raymond, who turns 6 in December, isn’t impressed with the his dad’s singing talents. Usher said in a recent interview, “He doesn’t care about what I do as much. … He’s like, ‘I’m the star. Who are you? You sing?'”
Usher goes on to say that: “He told me the other day, he says, ‘You’re not a great singer,'” Usher then replied with a laugh to his son: “What? I’m a great singer!”
Children are good at bringing your ego down… But that was cute.. Usher said his son named after him, who turns 7 next month, has taken to his father’s dance talents.
“When seeing me perform on tour in the past … and most of the time it’s past his bedtime, but he’s just sitting there studying every move, every second, like laser ..focus,” he said of Usher Raymond V. “And then I’ll see him off by himself doing the moves..
Usher will be on his UR Experience World Tour, which kicked off in Montreal. Children will keep you grounded I hope when it’s Trey Songz’s turn to be a dad (if he isn’t already) his son has these same exact words for him…
Celebs Take Over Alicia Keys' Keep A Child Alive BLACK BALL
Alicia Keys' Keep A Child Alive 11th annual Black Ball went down at Hammerstein Ballroom and tons of her celebrity friends who came out to raise money to save children in Africa from the AIDS epidemic...
Alicia took her bump out for a glamourous night of charity as she and her husband Swizz Beatz shared kisses and laughs on the red carpet of the Keep A Child Alive Black Ball.
The mom-to-be (again) rocked her favorite style--a grecian-inspired gown--with sparkling silver off the shoulder straps.
And she stopped over at Aretha Franklin's table to pay her respects to the Queen:
Aretha and this fur are determined to be the belles of this ball. She posed it up with her longtime friend Clive Davis (who was equally as influential in Alicia's life) as well.
Madonna was also there and snapped some pics with the woman of the hour. And speaking of Madonna, she snapped some us-sies with Kanye West (and Riccardo Tisci) too:
Hey 'Ye! Looks like he flew solo...meaning without wife Kim but with his...friend...Riccardo. By the way, Kanye popped up at an open mic night in New Jersey the night before, much to the surprise of the locals. He was there to support the 17-year-old rapper daughter of one of his closest friends.
Angela Simmons served up one of the fave looks of the night. This midnight lace Michael Costello gown was perfection:
Gorgeous. And the hair and makeup were on point.
LaLa Anthony, dressed in head to toe Moschino, brought her bestie Po Johnson along as her date.
I'm loving everything about this effortlessly sexy coat dress.
Heeey Nas.
After dropping his new JDilla-produced song "The Season" Nas rolled to the black tie event to perform with Alicia. Nas is wearing a burgundy hounds-tooth, one button, peak lapel jacket, black dress shirt, and black pants all by Ermenegildo Zegna.
Models Joan Smalls, Selita Ebanks & Alek Wek sparkled on the carpet.
Rapper Angel Haze hit the carpet before her performance.
Estelle looked glamorous in Gustavo Cadile's F/W '14 collection black strapless gown with a beaded stripe bodice.
Fashion head honcho Andre Leon Talley made an appearance:
And so did philanthropist Russell Simmons.
Philanthropic ladies Gayle King, Denise Rich, and Bethann Hardison were all there glammed up and ready to support:
Nice.
Jeannette Jenkins showed off her super fit bod in a fitted nude sparkling gown for the occasion.
Host of the night Diddy got in on a group pic with Swizzy, Riccardo and Yeezy.
Lovely.
It's a clique of fabness. Good friends Estelle, LaLa, Po, Jeanette, Angie Beyince and Angela all posed it up during the event.
Hot.
And Angela posted the fun with her Uncle Russell.
GOOD TIMES had by all!
AND FINALLY FROM THE 'CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART FILES
