Kyemah McEntyre Afro-centric prom dress diy
High school senior Kyemah McEntyre's DIY prom dress was not your average Pinterest-inspired sewing project.

Kyemah, an 18-year-old from New Jersey designed and created her own prom dress this year, with insanely stunning results. She took to Twitter on Saturday to post a picture of her creation: a V-neck gown in a bold red and incredible colorful print inspired by her African heritage. It's pretty easy to see that not only is Kyemah's dress not your typical floor length, sequined number. It looks like it would be right at home on the red carpet of this year's Met Gala (had it been African, instead of Asian, inspired). The best part? Her dress doesn't just stop at being simply beautiful. Kyemah later posted to Instagram about the inspiration behind her dress, saying, "Being exposed to all kinds of people and cultures is the muse for my artwork. I believe that in order for society to gain a wider horizon, we have to be willing to acknowledge other people from differences in beliefs, morals and values."

She accessorized the dress with a gorgeous gold headband and a head of perfect natural springy curls - in other words, she absolutely slayed. Kyemah will be attending Parson's School of Design this fall, a school that produced fashion greats like Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs, so we're looking forward to hearing about the amazing ways she'll continue to use fashion to change the world.

Google x Levi's Collab Could Help You Send Texts Through Your Jeans

GoogleRight now, a swipe of your finger across your jeans indicates that you probably just dropped some lunch in your lap. But soon, it could mean you've sent a text, phoned a friend or opened an email. At least, that's what's in the works with Google's Project Jacquard.

When you think of wearable tech, usually there's a device attached to you - be it a bracelet, clip-on box, shoe insert or other add-on you need to integrate into your wardrobe. Project Jacquard (named for a complicated machine weaving process) wants to weave interactive threads into clothes you're already wearing.GoogleWhile the technology to make textiles conductive isn't new, the ability to produce these smart materials in large amounts (in other words, not just one touch-sensitive pair of pants at a time) is monumental, especially considering this particular innovation's ability to become anything from an interactive coat to a couch cushion.

Google's Jacquard yarn combines a secret metallic alloy mixture with cotton, polyester or silk to form a smart material strong enough for today's industrial looms. The conductive yarn is connected to minuscule circuits the size of a button, and the gesture-sensitive areas can be placed in specific spots on the garment - or over the entire thing.Google
That means fashion designers will be able to create smart clothing without sacrificing style to accommodate the technology. According to the Project Jacquard site, "Jacquard is a blank canvas for the fashion industry. Designers can use it as they would any fabric, adding new layers of functionality to their designs, without having to learn about electronics."

Google's first fashion partner is Levi's. The American heritage brand's firm grasp on what consumers want in a good pair of jeans - arguably a staple in any well-kept wardrobe - will help inform Google how to put technology into clothing that people will actually wear.Google
Levi's head of global product innovation Paul Dillinger said, "Levi's has always stayed true to our iconic products, while continuing to introduce innovations that address the current challenges of modern life."

Dressing smart just took on a whole new meaning. Check out the video below to learn more!

Anyone would be excited to be nominated for prom queen, but for Brooklynn Buenaventura, the honor was especially meaningful. The Renton High School teenager was born as Bruce and just a few years ago, attended the prom in a tux as a male and was nominated for king. "I really wanted to get out of that, I felt like I was hiding," she explained to King 5 News.

So this year, Brooklynn, who's in the process of transitioning, donned a pretty pink gown and went as her "true self." "I'm not hiding anything anymore," she says. "I'm still scared but it's about being brave. I want to tell other transgenders that it's okay to be out. We're not different."

Clearly, her classmates are seriously supportive of her new identity and voted her prom queen. Congratulations to Brooklynn! Being yourself is a beautiful thing.

Kendall vs. Kylie Jenner in a Game of "Which Sister"

We think we know Kendall and Kylie Jenner pretty well based on what we see of them in Keeping Up With The Kardashians and because we keep up with both of them on Twitter and Instagram.

But, nobody could possibly know Kendall or Kylie as well as they know each other, which is why we love the fact that they played this game of "Which Sister" with Glamour.

First question: Which sister takes more selfies? Each of them immediately held up the sign with the other sister's name on it. LOL!

We kind of have to agree with Kendall on this one, we see a lot more selfies of Kylie than we do of Kenny. Not that we're complaining because we love Ky's selfies, but she definitely takes more...or at least shares more of the ones she does take!

Next question: Which sister eats more junk food. Kylie has admitted in a past interview that she loves her junk food, but they both agreed that Kendall actually eats more of it...until Kendall changed her mind, saying she's been "good" lately.

Other questions they answered include: Which sister is a bigger tattletale? Which sister has the biggest shoe collection? And which sister is nicer?

Our favorite part, by far, was when they were asked which sister was the better cheerleader and they both felt the need to show their skills and prove why they deserved the title.

It's no secret Jennifer Lopez can back it up.

After strutting, shaking her hips and popping her derriere in the "Booty" music video with Iggy Azalea, J.Lo is back, twerking and slaying in Latin pop star Prince Royce's bilingual music video for "Back it Up."

In the nearly 4-minute video, the Boy Next Door star is first seen strutting poolside towards Royce in a floppy hat, cut-out bathing suit and aviator shades. She then switches up her look to a cream long-sleeved mini dress, and backs it up on the singer.
Pitbull also makes an appearance in the video, bringing in a reggaeton vibe as he raps a few lyrics with a bunch of booty-short wearing ladies surrounding him. With only a few weeks away from the official start of summer, we have a feeling this is going to be a hot song for the season.

Are you loving "Back It Up?" Check out the full video above and tell us in the comments.

This Dog Fights Hard to Prevent Her New Lobster Friend From Becoming Dinner

We are obsessed with dogs, it's a fact. But this video can appeal to dog lovers, vegans, lobster advocates (we know you're out there!) and pretty much everybody else who likes cute stuff.

We're not sure why this German Shepherd was playing with this lobster, but the family gave it to her and she got to hang out before little L-man got cooked.

Unfortunately for the fam, she formed a pretty tight bond with her new friend and she was not about to let her pal become dinner without putting up a fight.

First, her canine companion tries to see if she's willing to share and she is NOT having it. Literally, this was a teeth out situation and when a dog shows you their pearly whites they ain't smilin' at you...

When her humans try to get involved, Sami goes for the sad eyes. Dogs know that sad eyes work for everything...except protecting lobsters, apparently.
Eventually, she loses the lobster battle and Sami is forced to sit there in defeat after her little lobster friend has been pried from her paws.
Noooooooooo! Sorry, Sami!

Maybe she can make friends with this "lobster" instead.

Erinne Paisley Malala Yousafzai feminist graduation dress
Erinne Paisley's feminist graduation dress got people talking - and thankfully, this time, it wasn't because of some crazy suspension for a dress code violation.

Erinne, a Canadian high school student and activist, DIY-ed her own graduation dress from her old pre-calculus notes in order to make a major statement about girls' education. After fashioning the dress together with duct tape, she wrote in red lettering, "I've recieved [sic] my education. Not every woman has that right. Malala.org."
Erinne Paisley's feminist graduation dress Malala Yousafzai fund
The Web address, Malala.org, refers to Pakistani activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai's organization, The Malala Fund, which works to educate women and girls in countries where it is socially unacceptable, or even dangerous, for girls to attend school.

Even better? Erinne, who will be attending the University of Toronto in the fall, is now auctioning the dress online, and it's currently going for a whopping $940. Of course, Erinne plans to donate all the money she earns from the dress to The Malala Fund.

We think it's super amazing that Erinne used her big day in the spotlight to benefit girls who might otherwise not have the same opportunity!

Pia Mia 'Does It Again' With Tyga and Chris Brown

Pia Mia's new single "Do It Again" featuring Tyga and Chris Brown is officially our summer jam. We're obsessed with it! And we aren't the only ones. iHeartRadio named her an On the Verge Artist thanks to the infectious track.

You might know Pia as Kylie Jenner's BFF, but before you write her off as just another socialite, don't. The singer's life may appear glamorous to her 1.5 Million Instagram followers, but it wasn't always that way.

Pia moved from Guam to Los Angeles in pursuit of the kind of "American dream" Rihanna sings about when she was just 14. The now 18-year-old singer opened up to us about growing up on the island, working hard to send money home to her family, navigating the music business on her own and what she says is the biggest misconception about her.

The rhythmic pop artist hopes to inspire other teens to believe in their dreams and stay true to themselves, no matter who tries to take you down. Check out our revealing interview with her below.

Cambio: What was it like working with Tyga and Chris Brown on "Do It Again?"
Pia Mia: Working with Tyga and Chris Brown was really great. I was in a session with Tyga and [producer] Nic Nac. He was working with Tyga and I came by the session to say what's up, and "Do It Again" got played. And the record was already finished, it was just going to be a record for me by myself, and Chris and Tyga heard it and they were like, "Yo this record is really great. Could we hop on it?" And I was like "Um, yeah of course!" So they did and they both killed it and it's amazing, and it's just really nice to know that artists that I've listened to for years and have been inspired by heard my music and it's inspired them to want to be a part of it and I just never knew that this could be something that could be a reality for me. So getting to work with artists I love is really special and we're getting ready to shoot the music video for it, so it's pretty surreal.

Cambio: Who are some of your biggest musical influences?
Pia Mia: Some of my biggest musical influences would be Michael Jackson, Celine Dion and Beyoncé. I grew up on the Island of Guam and growing up there, there's not a lot of music that you can physically go to in concert and watch live, so I had to just find any way that I could to figure out how I was supposed to perform. How good should I be, what should my vocals be like? I really had no idea, so all I really knew was YouTube, and I would just study these artists over and over and over again. I watched their music videos and their live performances. I would just vocally train myself by sitting in front of the computer all day long replaying their videos, trying to match their vocals.
Power 106 Presents Powerhouse 2015Cambio: Your song "Red Love" is very honest and personal. Why is it important for you to be so open and honest with your music?
Pia Mia: It's so important to me to just be honest on records, because that's what I want to hear from artists I love. I want to hear them being true. That's what I expect from artists and that's what I'm going to give to people listening to my music. That's what I feel like being a true artist is: expressing your heart and yourself and sharing your experiences with other people so that they can know that they make it whatever they're going through also. You know, everyone goes through pretty much the same problems in life and we can all make it through. And it's also a huge thing for me to be true to myself. And even in what brands I work with or what I post online or anything, I'm very straight up about being who I am and what I believe in. That's always going to be important to me.

Cambio: What do you think is the biggest misconception about you?
Pia Mia: A lot of people think I'm just a rich girl who grew up in California who had everything handed to me on a silver platter and I don't really know why they think that. I think that's definitely the biggest misconception people have with me, but I just grew up normal. I grew up on an island. I just had my family as my friends, I didn't grow up with friends at all. People didn't really I guess know how to hang out with me, because I worked so much as a kid and I just knew right away what I wanted and I think a lot of kids were intimidated by that. But I worked for what I have. Nothing was given to me on a silver platter; no one in my family is in music, no one's in the industry. I basically had to figure this out by myself, like I didn't have anything given to me and that's one of the biggest things people misconstrue. They think I just had this all easy, when it was the complete opposite. I really struggled for what I have today. I live in my dream building now out in Los Angeles and that's not because my parents paid for it, that's not because someone gave it to me. I worked for it. I'm paying my bills. I'm helping my family in Guam pay the bills now. So, I guess I'd just say that I'm not a rich girl who just grew up in LA with everything, at all. I'm the complete opposite.
LA Gear Presents Sports Spectacular Charity Basketball Game Hosted By TygaCambio: Your Instagram followers love your fashion sense. Where do you find style inspiration?
Pia Mia: Growing up on Guam had a huge influence on my style, because there's not a lot of places to shop there and when I was growing up there, there weren't too many stores online that would ship to Guam, so I would have to get really creative on my own trying to find a style and trying to find pieces that were different and that I loved. So really just going to my sister, mom and dad's closets and taking their clothes and trying to piece them together differently maybe, cut them up and make them my own. So growing up on Guam had an influence on my style because it forces you really to have to get out of the box and think creatively about how you can create different pieces out of what you have.

Cambio: If you could tour with anyone, who would it be?
Pia: Kanye would for sure be an amazing person to tour with. I love what he does. I love his music and just how he does his stage design and what he does personally on stage is really epic, and I'd love to be part of something like that.

Cambio: What's one piece of advice you'd give to other teenagers like yourself?
Pia Mia: Believe in yourself, because when you believe in yourself then you finally give yourself a chance to have other people believe in you. I'd also say just to work really hard at whatever you want to do. Just work on your craft every day. Don't take no for an answer. I come from a very small island and to have this dream of wanting to perform and be able to tour on levels of how Michael Jackson and Beyoncé are doing it, is not something you would think is easily attainable and it wasn't. It's a lot of hard work, but I feel like a lot of people would think that's impossible and I'm just here today as a good example of anything can happen if you believe that it can. My life hasn't been easy and there have been a lot of people who have tried to take me down and are still to this day trying to take me down, and you have to be a fighter for what you want. You have to love yourself and love your dream and fight for what you want.

Carrie Underwood at the 2015 CMT Music AwardsCarrie Underwood just had a baby? Prove it!

The country singer stunned everyone when she made her first, big, post-baby appearance and graced the 2015 CMT Music Awards red carpet Wednesday night. She made jaws drop by walking the carpet in a white, short Thomas Wylde dress. There MUST be something in the water!

Carrie and her NHL hunky, hubby Mike Fisher welcomed their first child, Isaiah Michael Fisher, back in February. But since giving birth, the new mom has kept quiet, even skipping out on the Grammy Awards a few months ago.

Her absence doesn't mean she hasn't given us glimpses of her new bundle of joy. Just last week she posted an adorable shot of him chilling backstage with Mike during one of her rehearsals.

Welcome back to the red carpet, Carrie! You look awesome...but then again, you always do!

Selena Gomez and Taylor SwiftNeed helping writing songs about your ex-boyfriends and enemies? Who else is better to call for backup other than Taylor Swift to complete that mission?

Selena Gomez is reportedly reaching out to her talented BFF to help her write new songs. So should we expect Justin Bieber diss tracks penned by Tay? Eh, not so fast.

According to HollywoodLife.com, Tay is "helping Selena Gomez write her own songs." They say "Taylor's being very hands-on in the entire process."

While that could easily be the case, GossipCop.com say it's not true. Their Selena source told them that although the girls are BFFs, the song-writing talk simply is "not true." Ahh, way to break our hearts!

How amazing would Taylor and Selena tunes be? You know there would be some Bieber disses in the songs! Selena actually just sparked Jelena rumors all over again this week when she posted a sexy shower pic on Instagram, and Justin posted a similar shot shortly afterwards.

Guess the ladies' epic "Bad Blood" music video will be all we get from the two of them for awhile. Lets keep our fingers crossed for the whole music collabo thing, though...because that would just be friggin' amazing.

Nicki Minaj Fires Back After Ex-Boyfriend Blasts Her in New Song

Power 105.1's Powerhouse 2013Nicki Minaj had quite a few things to say after her ex-boyfriend Safaree Samuels released a new song about their relationship.

In "Love the Most," which made its debut on iTunes Wednesday, the aspiring rapper didn't hold back his feelings about the demise of their relationship, rapping about everything from Nicki's new love with Meek Mill to accusing her of being ashamed of their own 12-year stint.

"What a shame / It took a split for them to know I was your man / Got so tired of hidin' it / Head high with no pride in it / Guess I wasn't cool enough cause in our pictures we hidin' it," Safaree rapped. In the hook, Marques Anthony sings, "Why do people you love the most always want to hurt you? How can I trust you again when I'm not around you. But when I'm down and out and it's cold outside. Where were you?"

But, wait. There's more. Safaree continued, "Twelve years up in flames / Thought you woulda had my kid / Year 3 got engaged / Now we movin' out of rage." He also referenced Nicki kissing Nas in her "Ride by My Side" music video, rapping, "I had to watch you kiss Nas and pretend it's all cool," he rapped. "Inside I was feeling like a mother**kin' fool."
2013 BET Awards - ShowThen, before the song was over, he brought up Meek. "That's between me and you, it was always me and you / We ain't do this off opinions / It was only me and you / Then you let somebody new come and whisper in your ear / Didn't think he woulda told you that was my biggest fear," he continued.

"Don't make me do this," Nikki started on Twitter last night (and later deleted that text and most of the following). "Lesson: don't cheat on a loyal woman. God will punish u. When he does, tell people the truth. The truth may set u free. Love. Always." She continued: "Took a person with me to fame & fortune. These dudes leave their girl in the hood. Tell people the truth or you will b doomed."

"God gave me a good heart. I always let ppl get over on me way too long. But that's why I'm blessed. I'll always b blessed. May God keep u," she went on. "Enough with the pity party just live your life. I'm happy today not b/c of meek. But b/c I know Im a good person. Don't hate u. Will always love u. I forgive u. It's time to move on."

"And just for the record, I'm in love with meek. Lol and now I have a huge smile on my face," she added. "Making a 12 yr relationship work at such young ages? We're BOTH the real MVP. things got rocky at the end but we had a GREAT run. #B4Ujudge." Nicki and Safaree ended their 12-year relationship late last year. A few months later, the "Only" rapper sparked speculation she was dating Meek when she posted a pic of herself giving him a kiss. They were also spotted canoodling during Grammy week earlier this year.

In April, Nicki posted a shot of herself wearing a huge yellow diamond heart-shaped ring on that finger, fueling rumors that they are engaged, but Meek later shut those down, saying the ring was not an engagement ring, but, just a gift.

During their performance of "You And I," eagle eyed fans noticed that Liam was looking a bit forlorn, as he glanced to the place that Zayn would be standing on stage beside him.

Was it the Zayn-sized hole in his heart that had Liam looking blue? Niall Horan was quick to pick up on Liam's case of the sads and lend a helpful hug, which only adds to the layer of feels we're already trying to manage.

day 6.1 | mid-thought

A photo posted by Ms. Gloss + Guerilla Gloss (@randigloss) on

Randi Gloss, then 22, pored over the stack of colorful handwritten signs that would soon be carried by foot, almost 1.6 miles, at the August 2013 March on Washington. The 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech was in just a few days, and around her, mentees of a friend's after-school program busily sketched their own designs.

She paused, re-reading the words she scrawled vertically down the sign in front of her: "Emmitt [sic] & Amadou & Sean & Oscar & Trayvon. More than just black faces in tragic places."

"That hit me in the chest when I did that," Randi said, knowing this sign had to be hers. She had no way of knowing, however, that one year later, this sign's straight-forward design would be the backbone of her future GLOSSRAGS clothing label.Randi Gloss/Glossrags
She said, "It was a very simple way to address a complex issue - that issue being about black violence, whether initiated by a police officer or an individual."

A few days after the sign writing, Randi began the march with her mother, her friend Malcolm and his mentees. Immediately, she realized she was on to something. "Every 10 feet or so, I was getting stopped for folks to take pictures of the sign," she said. "I think [the design] grabbed people's attention because it wasn't something new. It's not a fad. It's really happening, and it's been happening."

As soon as she got home, she grabbed an orange Post-it and sketched out a T-shirt design.

"That's always been a part of me - that creativity aspect," Randi said, reflecting on the moment a few years later. "I was no Picasso, but I could sketch out a T-shirt."

Randi reached out to her mentor, Peter Chang, with her proposal. After figuring out a rough business model, Peter gave Randi $500 to start GLOSSRAGS, the clothing label that would house her shirt design, now called "And Counting."

In April 2014, Randi debuted her tees (black unisex cuts with white writing) at the Broccoli City Fest. At the end of the day, she sold half her inventory. Six months later, the "And Counting" shirt was bought 500 times in more than 25 states. In that time, the number of listed names has also swelled - from 6 to 17.

Randi Gloss/Glossrags
Now, what keeps Randi going is the shirts' ability to raise awareness about the issue. "There's a big general lack of knowledge, so any conversation is a productive conversation," she said.

Recently, a student reached out to Randi through Instagram, sharing what happened when he wore his "And Counting" shirt. A man approached the student and asked, "Are you going to be next?"

"The man thought they were basketball players," Randi explained. "There's a large demographic that doesn't know what's going on, and there's a large portion that do know some of the names but not all of them."

clearly in deep thought. 📷: @obshoots_ #GLOSSRAGS

A photo posted by Ms. Gloss + Guerilla Gloss (@randigloss) on

Randi understood she needed to tell more of these stories, and she joined The Millenial Trains Project to take the next step. The nonprofit guides young entrepreneurs on a literal train ride across the country, where they can spread their message through grassroots efforts at each stop. Randi invited individuals from Los Angeles, Austin, San Antonio, New Orleans, Atlanta and Washington, D.C. to come forward, so she could record their stories about what it means to be black in today's society.

The collected stories will be released later this year as weekly web series The Conscious Chronicles.

Maintaining GLOSSRAGS at her home base of Washington, D.C. is no easy feat, especially as the company grows from shirt selling to nationwide storytelling. But Randi finds the positivity in watching young people take part in the movement. "That gives me hope because they're not backing down," she said. It lets them know we have a long fight to continue engaging with, but we're not going to go quietly."

Talk about a #TBT! Before the days of Facebook, Instagram and Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian was just a girl on MySpace...or a princess, rather. Thanks to her MySpace page from 2006 that's been unearthed, we can get some insight into Kim before she was a household name.

Clearly, Kim knew one that one day she'd become tabloid royalty. Her profile name was "Princess Kimberly" and her profile declared: "I'm a princess and you're not, so there!"

But lest we think she's super shallow, Kim shows some depth. Under the "Who I'd like to meet" section, Kim replies "God." She also lists her late dad Robert Kardashian as her hero, which is kind of sweet.

As for if she wants children, Kim, now a mom to North West and pregnant with her second baby, says "someday." Does this make anyone else feel old?!

Mark Ruffalo Reveals the Script That Touched Him the Most

AOL BUILD Speaker Series: Maya Forbes And Mark Ruffalo Discuss Their New Film When Kathryn Luttner, Cambio's Col[lab] manager, gave me the chance of asking one question about anything to one of my favorite celebrities, I had a hard time trying to think of questions. Brainstorming became harder when I saw Mark Ruffalo's name on the list!

I've always loved Mark and every single one of his movies, although I am still trying to catch up on a few of them. He is, in my opinion, an incredible actor and very versatile. With interest in knowing more about his personal opinion on his films, I asked him a simple question: Which movie touched you the most from the moment that you read the script?

Mark's answer didn't surprise me in part. He was doing the AOL BUILD to promote his new flick, Infinitely Polar Bear. It focuses on a bipolar father of two who has to change his life, and in part, try to surpass his condition in order to move in with his daughters and care for them while his wife attends Columbia University. Because of this, I had a hunch that Mark would say this script touched him the most.

But the surprising thing that I did not know was that he has family who suffers from bipolar disorder, so that's why this script was so personally raw and touching to him.

This Woman Had the Best Response Ever to "Make-Up Shaming" Haters

Sometimes you just have to put people in their place.

Few things are worse than being criticized for who you are, specifically when it comes to the way you like to look. YouTube star NikkiTutorials is firing back at those who turn up their nose at women who love to wear make-up, shutting down "make-up shamers" in a video post on her popular channel.
"I've been noticing a lot lately that girls have been almost ashamed to say they love make-up, because nowadays when you say you love make-up, you either do it because you want to look good for boys, you do it because you're insecure, or you do it because you don't love yourself," she said. "I feel like in a way lately it's almost a crime to love doing your make-up."

It clearly is not. Still, the beauty vlogger has dealt with plenty of side-eyes herself. Nikki - who is stunning without one drop of make-up on - said she's gotten looks of disbelief when she has gone make-up free in public and showed people the make-up looks she's posted of herself on YouTube.
After watching an episode of RuPaul's Drag Race where contestants wore "half-drag, half male" make-up, Nikki was inspired to do it too, and show people everywhere that anyone can look beautiful with - or without - make-up. In the video, Nikki takes her half make-up transformation step by steps as she talks about why she likes wearing make-up and how she uses it to enhance her beauty.
Don't get it twisted, though. Nikki isn't encouraging ladies to slap make-up over their insecurities, feel better in the moment and still not be okay with who they are underneath it. She's simply sending a message that even with all of the "make-up free" selfies floating around, if you want to wear make-up, there's nothing wrong with that.

"I just want people to know that make-up is fun," she said, adding that if someone wants to go all out with their make-up it's fine. "There are no rules to make-up and make-up is there for days when you want to look hella good. And that's why I love the power of make-up."

We love the power of Nikki's message. Brush the haters all the way off girl.

Kendall Jenner looks like a boss in her new Estee Lauder campaign! The 19-year-old is sporting a much more mature look and looks like a woman who means business.

Back in November, Kendall shared the exciting news that she had become the new face of the makeup brand, gushing on Instagram that she still couldn't believe it. Well, Kenny - you'd better believe it, because the campaign is here and it's amazing!

Estee Lauder shared a BTS video of Kendall walking around on a backlot wearing all red everything and it's just. so. fierce!
She also shared a second image from the campaign, captioning it, "Who needs one ad when you can have two...at the same time." Hey, we're not complaining!
Back when Kendall first signed with the brand, she did an interview with Estee Lauder spokeswoman Joan Smalls and revealed how she found out she'd landed the job. "I was so excited. I found out backstage in Paris and they told me I couldn't say anything. So I saw the text and I was like, "Oh my God! I have to keep this to myself." When I got to my room I started freaking out."

She also said that the only person she told was her mom. "Yeah, my mom was the only person I told. She was crying, but then she cries at everything," she joked.

Hey, at the end of the day a momager is still a mom who is very proud of her super successful daughter- and we don't blame her!

Nick Jonas f**k marry kill ariana grande meghan trainor kelly clarkson
Last time Nick Jonas had to mull over who he would kiss, marry or leave during Capital FM's "Lips, Wife, Leave It" game (their kinder version of 'F**k, Marry, Kill'), he decided Demi Lovato was wife material, Selena Gomez was kissable, and he'd leave Miley Cyrus.

The radio station decided to put Nick to the test again, with the choices of Kelly Clarkson, Meghan Trainor and Ariana Grande. Really? How can you make a person choose between three awesome women?

Nick gave it some quick thought before settling on "leaving" Kelly - but only because she's already married! He explained, "I'm going on tour with Kelly Clarkson later this year and she's awesome, but she's already married. She has a child so I'm going to leave it."

As for the remaining categories, Nick said, "Meghan...marry. Because I know Meghan really well now and we're homies so you want to marry your homie." Aww. He added that his girlfriend Olivia "loves her" as well.

So...pucker up, Ariana! Nick explained, "That is what was left, that is the option that was left. There's no real deep thinking behind it."

#JumpATampon tampon selfiesForget the duck face...the latest trend for selfies is taking pics with tampons! Yes, you read that correctly.

The hashtag #JustATampon is a social media movement aiming to end the stigma around that time of month. It was started by VPoint and British charity Plan UK to try to make having your period and talking about it less taboo as well as raise funds for women in underprivileged countries without access to feminine hygiene products.

"Around the world, millions of girls face discrimination just for being girls," the campaign explains. "One way this manifests itself is through poor access to quality menstrual health and hygiene. It not only poses health issues, but means girls can miss school when they have their period and face bullying. Only 12% of girls and women have access to sanitary products around the world. And in Africa, one in ten girls miss school when they have their period."

Girls aren't the only taking tampons selfies to support the cause. Check out these awesome men who are getting involved! Are you planning to take a #JustATampon selfie?

Hell-o Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne!

We have no idea why this photo was taken, we're 99% sure that it was for some kind of a photoshoot (Beats maybe?) or it could have just been an attempt to break the internet. Because two supermodels, naked, licking each other does have a certain appeal.

Cara shared the pic on her Instagram page with the caption #CaKe, which combines the first two letters of both of their names and makes kind of a cool little friendship moniker.

We're not gonna lie, we love that they've made "CaKe" an official thing because it gives us something to search for when we're looking for awesome things like this:

CaKe! 😜 @caradelevingne

A video posted by Kendall Jenner (@kendalljenner) on

Yeah, this might just be one of our favorite friendships ever.
