Billie Eilish calls out babies who unfollowed her for posting breasts – New York Post

For a hot recording artist who’s notorious for concealing her young body in intentionally unsexy baggy clothes, Billie Eilish sure does create a lot of hubbub about boobs. As the latest A-lister to take part in the viral “Post a Photo Of” Instagram challenge, the “Bad Guy” singer appears to have lost 100,000 followers in one hour on Tuesday — after sharing a series of images of female breasts. As one fan documented on Twitter, Eilish’s follower count rapidly dropped from 73 million on the platform to 72.9 million. But the entire episode seems to have cracked up the 19-year-old Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, who just happens to be one of the most-followed individuals on the ‘Gram. “LMFAOOO y’all babies smh,” she posted along with a screenshot on he...

Fresh Prince star Janet Hubert rips Lori Loughlins prison release: To be white, blond and privileged! – Fox News

"Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" star Janet Hubert is taking Lori Loughlin to task for her involvement in the national college admissions scandal. A spokesperson at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Dublin, Calif., confirmed to Fox News on Monday that the "Full House" star completed her prison time after serving two months behind bars for her crimes. Hubert, 64, reacted to Loughlin's release on Twitter, where she weighed in on the actress' privilege. "So when white actresses commit crimes they get new shows, pilots, etc. Lori Loughlin ...I assume, will get an Emmy for her time in prison. Hmmmm...oh to be white, blond, and privileged! No thanks I would rather be bold, black, and dignified!" Hubert tweeted along with the hashtag #onlyinamerikkka. LORI LOUGHLIN HAD EMOTIONAL REUNIO...

Vaccine rollout slower than expected as Americans wait for doses – CBS News

Frustration is building with the rollout of the coronavirus vaccine. The Trump administration had pledged 20 million doses of the vaccine by year's end, but so far, not even 3 million shots have been given and just over 11 million doses have been shipped.  President-elect Joe Biden suggested Tuesday that the Trump administration has overpromised and under-delivered. Mr. Biden noted that at the current pace, it would take years to vaccinate the country against COVID-19. Mr. Biden vowed to accelerate the pace of vaccinations and boost Americans' confidence in the shots once he is sworn in next month.  "This is the greatest operational challenge we've faced as a nation," Mr. Biden said Tuesday.  Mr. Biden said his incoming administration will move heaven and earth to get the vaccination effo...

Texas Gov. Abbott urges speedy vaccinations, says doses sitting on hospital shelves | TheHill – The Hill

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) has urged state health officials and hospitals to speed up the distribution of its supplies of COVID-19 vaccines in response to a letter from the state's health commissioner indicating that much of the state's supply has yet to be administered. In a tweet Tuesday, Abbott wrote that it was unacceptable for many doses of the vaccine to still be "sitting on hospital shelves as opposed to being given to vulnerable Texans" and added that Texas "urges vaccine providers to quickly provide all shots." "We get plenty more each week," he said. A significant portion of vaccines distributed across Texas might be sitting on hospital shelves as opposed to being given to vulnerable Texans The state urges vaccine providers to quickly provide all shots.

Chrissy Teigen tells fans shes four weeks sober – CNN

The star posted a clip of herself dancing to "Good Morning" from the musical "Singin' in the Rain," under which a fan commented: "I need whatever drugs you're on." Teigen replied that she is "4 weeks sober," alongside a stream of heart and prayer emojis, receiving a number of congratulatory messages from her fans. Teigen has discussed struggles with alcohol in the past, telling Cosmopolitan in 2017 that she was "point blank, just drinking too much" during part of her career. "I got used to being in hair and makeup and having a glass of wine. Then that glass of wine would carry over into me having one before the awards show. And then a bunch at the awards show," she said. "You feel horrible. It's not a good look for me, for John, for anybody," she added, referring to her husband...

Prince Harry and Meghan Markles existence is pointless in self-exile, royal expert claims – Daily Mail

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are 'pointless in self-exile' and it would have been 'great to have heard' the Duke supporting the NHS during the Covid-19 crisis like the Cambridges have, a royal biographer has claimed. The Duke, 36, and Duchess of Sussex, 39, are currently living in their $14 million Californian mansion with eighteen-month-old son Archie, having stepped back from royal duty in March. Royal expert Hugo Vickers said Prince Harry is 'isolated from his family, the army, his friends, the Commonwealth' in the US, telling The Telegraph: 'It’s a pointless existence in self-exile.' Meanwhile he compared the Duke's actions to those of Prince William, 38, and Kate Middleton, 38, adding: 'During the NHS clapping, I thought how, after the Cambridges clapped, it would have been great t...

25 Days That Changed the World: How Covid-19 Slipped China’s Grasp – The New York Times

Politically, it was a perilous situation for both men. As its trade war with China escalated, the Trump administration had all but eliminated a public health partnership with Beijing that had begun after the debacle of SARS and was intended to help prevent potential pandemics. By pulling out, current and former agency officials say, Washington cut itself off from potential intelligence about the virus, and lost a chance to work with China against it. Under the partnership, teams of American doctors were stationed in China and, over time, helped train more than 2,500 Chinese public health staff. More than 15 traveled to the United States for training, as well. “Our trainees,” the Americans called them. One of the American doctors was stationed inside the Chinese C.D.C., building ties with ...
