Media Icon, Oprah Winfrey headed to Georgia this week and surprised voters at their doorsteps campaigning for Democratic nominee, Stacey Abrams.

Winfrey also joined Abrams Thursday and spoke at two engagements in Marietta and Decatur. Although Winfrey has made few political endorsements in the past, the oscar-nominated actress made it clear to NBC that it is her own influence that brought her to Georgia. Stating,

“I want to tell you … no one paid for me to come here. No one asked me to come here..I came for myself and I approve this message.”

Abrams has also been endorsed by other major influencers including Will Ferrell, and president Barack Obama, who campaigned for Abrams at the HBCU Morehouse College a day prior to Winfrey’s arrival.

If Abrams wins the race for governor, she will be become the first African American woman appointed to the position in US history.

Ariana Grande Releases New Single After Breaking Up With Pete Davidson And We're Here For It

November 4, 2018 Ava Hill

If we thought for one second that Pete Davidson would have the last jab about his split with Ariana, we thought wrong. Boop! Thank you.. Next!

Ariana Grande released her latest single, “Thank You, Next” Saturday night after Pete Davidson’s SNL promo jab about their recent split.

But, Before Ariana dropped her single, she made sure to let her thoughts be known via twitter which has since been deleted.

“Thank You, Next” also addresses Ariana’s other ex’s, including Big Sean and Mac Miller, who passed away in September of this year.

By the end of SNL’s episode, Davidson took the high road, calling Ariana a “wonderful, strong person” while wishing her “all of the happiness in the world.”

Seems like the high road may be a bit too late, though.

Ariana: Next!

December 29, 2015 Ava Hill

It looks like Chris Brown is living the reason for the season.

Brown gifted single mother, Jessica Roncalli; a former victim of domestic violence with a new set of wheels for Christmas. Not knowing the family previous to gifting them, Brown wanted to practice a random act of kindness by giving back to those who are in less fortunate circumstances, telling TMZ that we should "all practice random acts of kindness." Brown took to instragram to share his moment with Roncalli and her children. Stating,

"I’ve been very fortunate and blessed with so much in my life and I always thought that it was supposed to be that way. I was selfish, arrogant, and cold-hearted. I’m able to bless and inspire so many others and I realize that now. This woman has dealt with domestic abuse through her life and her 3 wonderful children had to experience that. I see myself when I looked into their eyes. The amount of strength this woman has is remarkable. I hope I could make their Christmas a great one. I hope the kids love all the toys and things I got for them. And for moms. I hope I could put a smile on this family’s face."

The family of four received the new car at the Boys and Girls Club in Hollywood.

Teyana Taylor And Iman Shumpert Welcome Baby Girl: Here's How

December 17, 2015 Ava Hill

Reading about a baby's delivery, you're automatically expecting to hear details about the hospital experience the mother went through while delivering her baby.

Not for Teyana Taylor though.

The songstress welcomed a baby girl, Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr. into the world December 16th at around 6:42 am weighing in at 7oz. and 19.5 inches.

Originally, Teyana and her and fiance, Iman Shumpert were expecting to deliver January 16th, but instead, baby Iman decided to conduct her entrance, being delivered at home unexpectedly.

So, what exactly went down with "Junie's" (as Teyana calls her) world debut? Teyana didn't know that she was in labor until she felt baby Iman's head and after two ten pushes, Iman was delivered successfully. Without baby Iman shedding a tear, Iman Shumpert played doctor while Iman entered into his hands.

Teyana also dishes that she wasn't able to concentrate when it came to speaking to the emergency operator via phone. While doing so, Iman Shumpert tied a pair of red headphones around the umbilical chord, and the ambulance made their appearance around 5 minutes later according to E! Online.

What a way to give birth!

Kim Kardashian Underwent A Procedure To Turn Her Son Around: No Longer Breech

December 4, 2015 Ava Hill

Kim Kardashian hasn't had the easiest journey for both of her pregnancies.

Kim revealed December 4th that she underwent a procedure over the Thanksgiving holiday, called an ECV (External Cephalic Version, or a Version), which is done to manually turn a baby around from a breech position into the head-down position. The reality star checked into Cedars-Sanai Hospital over the holiday but allegedly made it in time for Khloe Kardashian's Thanksgiving holiday feast.

Kim went on to say that the doctors gave her an IV with medication that relaxed her uterus, and afterwards, had three doctors works together to turn the baby. The risks that followed the procedure included the baby's heart rate dropping or that her water could have broken; which would have caused an emergency C-section.

Kim also included that she went into the hospital aware of every possibility and prepared for each one, stating that the process of turning the baby around was more painful than childbirth.

Top Moments Of The American Music Awards

November 23, 2015 Ava Hill

The American Music Awards took place Sunday evening with Jennifer Lopez as the host, who also performed, which kept the audience on their feet. From Alanis Morissette and Demi Lovato's duet to Just Bieber closing the show, AMA's were a hit and for me, my three favorite moments are:

1. JLO:

The songstress kicked off the evening performing a 10-minute montage of this year's biggest songs! JLo also got emotional expressing that she has always dreamed of hosting the AMAs.

2. Nicki Minaj: Shade or no shade?

While JLo kicked performed a 10-minute montage that included Nicki Minaj's hit, "Anaconda", the camera then zoomed into Minaj as she expressed nothing but a stone cold vibe. Social media accused Minaj of throwing shade but according to Minaj herself, the rapper declared that she wasn't throwing shade and instead was looking at her own face on the camera to then turn back to focus on JLo via twitter.

Whatever you say, Nicki.

3. Celine Dion:

The infamous Celine Dion sang a tribute to Paris due to the attacks singing Edith Piaf's "Hymne a L'Amour". As Dion performed, audience members were fully engaged in the emotional performance, some in tears.
