Instagram’s CEO Responds After Kim Kardashian And Kylie Jenner Tells The Platform To Stop Trying To Be TikTok
By now if you’re on Instagram you’ll notice that you no longer see pictures of your friends’ babies, or at the beach, or in a cute outfit, or doing whatever glossy thing makes us all pretend our lives aren’t endless chaos of 9-5s and bills. Instead, you’re seeing all these people’s Reels who you’ve never met and aren’t following. And that’s on purpose! Instagram’s CEO admits that the platform is heading towards video after being called out by Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian. They dragged Instagram on their own Instagram Stories prompting the company to basically admit they’re trying to be TikTok. I guess if you want to see pictures of your friends you’ll have to start actually texting them directly.
Kylie Jenner Called Out Travis Scott For His Smoke Showing Up In Her Pics
It’s been a delightful minute since we’ve heard much about Kylie Jenner (even though sister Kim Kardashian’s attention-seeking ass more than makes up for her) except that Rihanna dethroned her as the youngest self-made American female billionaire and she and boyfriend Travis Scott still haven’t revealed the replacement name of their infant, formerly known as “Wolf Webster.” Kylie’s Instagram mostly consists of uncandid pics of her generously stuffed lips and ass posing in expensive outfits that only a “billionaire” could love, or trying to hawk Kylie Cosmetics; since The Karjenners are rich as hell, I assumed that they have a photographer on their payroll who follows them around to photograph them whenever they want to fulfill their quest for likes and attention. It turns out that “stars, they’re just like us!” and Kylie just gets Travis to snap pics of her sometimes, but apparently in his most recent assignment, putting down whatever he happened to be smoking at the time to get the perfect shot was too much to ask. Kylie still ended up posting the pics but seemed annoyed about Travis’ smoke being visible in them.
Hilaria Baldwin Shared Some Of The Hateful Comments She Receives On Instagram
Hilaria Baldwin already holds several titles: “most pregnant pregnant-woman to ever pregnant.” “The Spanish-est Massachusetts native to ever utter ‘coo-cahm-bear.’” “Star of the wokest and definitely most candid gender reveal video of all time.” Next on her agenda: “champion of protecting bullied women everywhere who somehow don’t realize that they can just stop posting or accepting new followers on social media any time they want.” Hilaria, wife of actor Alec Baldwin and mom of six with a seventh on the way, posted a video on Wednesday where she talked about her personal struggle with trolls and how it’s affected her, shared some of the types of hateful comments she receives, and says she wants to help others suffering the same plight.
NeNe Leakes Fought With Facetune On Instagram
If you’ve seen the plethora of pinched-nosed, snatched-waisted, velvety-smooth skinned Kardashian Klonebots who pollute our Instagram feeds, then you’re familiar with the capabilities of the photo editing/filtering app, Facetune, and that some people use it more skillfully than others. If you’ve ever had the pleasure of laying your eyes upon NeNe Leakes’ Instagram contributions, it’s a masterclass in how not to use it, and she’s even been referred to as a “Facetune fiend.” Now that her “Trump Checks” probably bounce and/or she’s at risk of her nose fleeing her face if she has one more rhinoplasty, Facetune has become her chosen medium for facefuckery. Although the pics she posts look like she gets into a losing fight with Facetune every day, this time she got into it with the app in the comment section.
Madonna Was Blocked From Going On Instagram Live
Yesterday Madonna announced that she’d be going on Instagram Live later that evening. The 63-year-old Bratz Doll SEXagenerian was planning a live chat with Sickick, a DJ she collaborated with on her latest “Frozen” remix, “Frozen on Fire”. All the Madonna die-hards cleared their very busy schedules, busted out the rosé, and took their landlines off the hook. But when 8 pm PT/11 pm EST rolled around, Madonna and Sickick were nowhere to be found. A couple of hours later, Madonna posted some videos explaining the situation: she wasn’t flaky, she was blocked! Instagram wouldn’t let her go live. Censorship! Suppression! Thought control! Quick, call up Diablo Cody (maybe) so we can add this latest injustice to Madge’s biopic! Continue reading
The Internet Has Mixed Feelings on Britney Spears’ Naked Selfies
One of the first things Britney Spears did after emerging from her nearly 13-year-long conservatorship was make up for lost time and celebrated by putting her body on Instagram, as many thirst trappers have done before. Britney’s online activity used to be heavily monitored and controlled, and getting naked for the ‘gram wasn’t exactly something that would get the approval from those in charge, like her dad Jamie Spears. Now that Britney is free to scream and shout and let it all out, she can work (bitch) that body as much as she wants. Lately, she’s been at it again, posting naked selfies with just a few strategically-placed emojis to keep her if-you-seek-Amy bits from getting flagged. Some people on the internet aren’t feeling Britney feeling herself, and they’ve voiced their concern. On the other side of the debate are people who aren’t concerned that Britney’s behavior is anything more than just an adult woman doing what she wants.
