Erin Burnett Pauses In Disbelief Over 1 Epstein Estate Photo
LOADING ERROR LOADINGCNN “OutFront” anchor Erin Burnett discussed newly released photos from the estate of late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on Friday and took a moment to express her disbelief over what she found herself describing.

'Bigorexia' Is On The Rise In Kids And Teens. Here's What Parents Should Know.
Advertisement“Eating disorders in boys are often under-recognized and under-diagnosed, said Jason Nagata, a pediatrician specializing in eating disorders in boys and men, who co-authored the study. He noted that a recent Canadian study found that hospitalizations for eating disorders in male patients had risen dramatically since 2002. “Limit social media consumption as much as possible, but recognize that you cannot eliminate it altogether,” Trunzo advised. Be mindful of the kinds of messages your kids are getting from their entertainment and social media activity. “Boys with muscle dysmorphia or eating disorders should seek professional help,” Nagata said.

Funniest Celebrity Christmas Videos We'll Never Not Find Hilarious
A selection of some of the festive moments that have us howling every Christmas ITV/C-SPAN/Walkers/Tesco/NBC/CBS/BBCWhether you’re a Christmas obsessive who’s been blasting Mariah Carey since the second you closed the door on the last of your trick-or-treaters or a more sceptical Scrooge, one thing that can’t be denied is that all of the twinkling fairy lights, colourful decorations and relentlessly-upbeat music that come with the festive season are a great antidote to the gloom and darkness that’s otherwise associated with the UK at the height of winter. One key way of spreading festive cheer is, of course, with a big old laugh, and much like the films and songs we revisit every December, many of us will also have hilarious – and, indeed, ridiculous – seasonal videos that we like to dust off. AdvertisementSo, to help see in the festive season in style, we’ve rounded up some of our absolute favourites that are guaranteed to raise a smile no matter how cold the weather or grey the skies…We’re starting with a true Christmas cracker – this moment from back in the 90s when Patti LaBelle was supposed to be performing at the lighting of the White House Christmas tree, but found herself without backing singers (or, more to the point, her much-needed cue cards)AdvertisementIf ever you’re tired of telling people ‘Merry Christmas’ all December long, RuPaul has a fun – and, to be honest, very odd – alternative......And so, for that matter, does Kat SlaterAdvertisementThe late, great Paul O’Grady and Cilla Black’s tune-optional cover of Baby, It’s Cold Outside pretty much sums up everything we loved up about seeing them on screen togetherAnd while we’re on the subject of our Cilla, we’ve no idea what’s going on here but we’re 100% here for itSticking with the ‘musical’ (and we use that term loosely) theme, this all-star performance of Do They Know It’s Christmas from a Stars In Their Eyes special back in the day just gets more and more astonishing as it goes onAdvertisementNow, admittedly it’s tough to narrow down one specific funniest moment from Gavin & Stacey’s top-tier Christmas specials, but this performance from the late Margaret John is pretty much perfectRewatching Jade Novah’s Christmas divas parody is a festive must (her Beyoncé is particularly uncanny)Hands up – who remembers this advert from way back in 2007, when the Spice Girls not only tried to convince us all that they shopped in Tesco, but that they all frequented the same one, at the exact same time? AdvertisementThis ‘lip sync’ between RuPaul and Michelle Visage is a whole lot of festive funBut the less said about Michael Bublé’s bro-heavy rendition of Santa Baby (or should we say, Buddy) the better…AdvertisementWho could forget when John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John did... this? While 90s Disney kids will already know that the oft-overlooked Beauty And The Beast sequel The Enchanted Christmas is low-key nightmare fuel, this line delivery from Tim Curry as Forte is just exceptionalAdvertisementSaturday Night Live has gifted viewers countless hilarious festive musical numbers over the years, but special mention has to go to this extremely-relatable offering led by Emma StoneBut special mention has to go to this hilarious ode to bringing a new partner to your family home over ChristmasOh, and Kristen Wiig is, as ever, an absolute scene-stealer in this particular sketchWe’d sort of deleted this Mariah Carey Walkers advert from our memory... but watching her take the tiniest bite of a prawn cocktail crisp at the end of the clip is just amazingMeanwhile, every single second of future Bafta winner Jane McDonald’s 1998 Christmas medley is the stuff of absolute joyAdvertisementEvery second of this 16-minute video of Trixie Mattel and Katya reviewing Dolly Parton’s 2020 Christmas movie is an absolute screamAnd so, as JB Gill from JLS observed…Advertisement

Trump Gives Slippery Answer When Asked If Venezuela Conflict Is About Oil: 'Well...'
LOADING ERROR LOADINGPresident Donald Trump on Thursday appeared to imply that the ongoing series of lethal U.S. military strikes in Caribbean waters against alleged drug traffickers from Venezuela might not be entirely about the drugs. One operation in particular is suspected of being a war crime, as the U.S. on Sept. 2 engaged in a “double-tap” airstrike on an alleged drug boat, an operation that killed shipwrecked survivors. Maduro has argued that Trump wants Venezuela’s oil, as the country holds the world’s largest proven oil reserves. In a display of American military power last month, Trump deployed the most advanced U.S. aircraft carrier to the Caribbean. The administration is now apparently preparing to seize even more Venezuelan oil tankers.

Jon Stewart Spells Out Why 'No Level Of A**-Kissing' Will Please Trump
There is no level of ass-kissing you can do,” Stewart said. “He is angry at Fox News, which is literally like a 24-hour-a-day, ball-washing machine for Trump and is designed specifically to keep him in power,” he said. Advertisement“So for him to say something is seditious or treasonous means nothing because the bar of entry to Donald Trump is purely about how deeply you are proving your undying loyalty to the king. Anything below that, obviously, is seditious and none of us measure up, unfortunately.”Stewart noted sarcastically that it’s “so hard” to be a billionaire president. “Think of how hard that is on someone, we don’t feel bad enough.”

When Hasbro released Generation 4 along with the television show “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic,” something intriguing happened. AdvertisementI wasn’t thinking about the My Little Pony franchise evolution or whether I was destined to become an adult superfan the day I found my decades-old collection.
