Celebrities / Scott Disick & Kourtney Kardashain Ignite Reunion Rumors After Vacation by Concaholic: 9:45pm On Nov 14, 2016
One of the most unstable Hollywood relationships of all time may be back on track as Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian went on vacation together.

The couple have been dating since 2006, and have had 3 children and an uncountable number of splits since. Their most recent split is their longest, with the couple having been separated since July 2015.

The cause of the separation back then had been Scott's partying with stylist Chloe Bartoli, but all that seems to be water under the bridge now.

Celebrities / Can A Black Person Be Racist? Chimamanda Adichie As A Case Study by Concaholic: 4:32pm On Nov 12, 2016
Popular Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie appeared on BBC program Newsnight, and has sparked debates on if a black person can indeed be racist.

In a debate with the Editor-In-Chief of American Spectator, Robert Emmett Tyrell Jr., Adichie had claimed that Donald Trump was racist, a statement Tyrell had rejected.

In response to Tyrell's rejection, the award-winning author said: "I am sorry... But if you are a white man, you don't get to define what racism is."

Tyrell had tried to explain that racism was a Marxist concept, but that according to Adichie, he couldn't even "open my mouth here because I am a white male."

Sports / Lewis Hamilton To Donald Trump: "Prove The World Wrong" by Concaholic: 10:49pm On Nov 10, 2016
Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has chosen to be optimistic following Donald Trump's victory in the 2016 US Presidential Elections.

Trump had shocked the entire world with a clear victory over Democrat's Hillary Clinton. Many protests have sprung up in the wake of his victory, but Hamilton has chosen to be hopeful.

“It was a surprise,” he said ahead of the Brazilian Grand Prix. “I watched the live feed from the plane. To be honest, I don’t think either candidate was particularly mega but maybe he will prove us all wrong. I hope he does. I hope he proves the world wrong and we get to see a different side to him.”

Hamilton is currently 19 points behind Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg, who will claim the World title if he wins at Interlagos on Sunday. The British driver has however said he'd do his best to win on the day, especially as he had never won the Brazilian Grand Prix before.

Foreign Affairs / Read Hillary Clinton's Full Concession Speech by Concaholic: 7:39pm On Nov 09, 2016
Following Donald Trump's shocking win at the 2016 US Presidential Elections, Hillary Clinton has given a very emotional concession speech.

The Democratic candidate, flanked by her family, gave the speech at the New Yorker Hotel in New York. See a transcript of the speech below, courtesy, Vox.

Thank you. Thank you all.

Thank you. Thank you all have much.

[Applause]

Thank you. Thank you all very much. Thank you so much. A very rowdy group. Thank you, my friends. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you so very much for being here. I love you all, too. Last night I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country.

I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans. This is not the outcome we wanted or we worked so hard for, and I'm sorry we did not win this election for the values we share and the vision we hold for our country.

But I feel pride and gratitude for this wonderful campaign that we built together. This vast, diverse, creative, unruly, energized campaign. You represent the best of America, and being your candidate has been one of the greatest honors of my life.

I know how disappointed you feel, because I feel it too. And so do tens of millions of Americans who invested their hopes and dreams in this effort. This is painful, and it will be for a long time. But I want you to remember this.

Our campaign was never about one person, or even one election. It was about the country we love and building an America that is hopeful, inclusive, and big-hearted. We have seen that our nation is more deeply divided than we thought. But I still believe in America, and I always will. And if you do, then we must accept this result and then look to the future. Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead. Our constitutional democracy enshrines the peaceful transfer of power.

Celebrities / Prince Harry Confirms He's Dating 'suits' Star Meghan Markle by Concaholic: 6:41pm On Nov 08, 2016
Prince Harry has officially confirmed that he's dating Suits actress, Meghan Markle.

In a statement released on Tuesday, Prince Harry described Markle as his "girlfriend", while slamming the social media abuse she's been having to endure as a result.

“The past week has seen a line crossed,” a statement from Prince Harry’s communications secretary, Jason Knauf read.

“His girlfriend, Meghan Markle, has been subject to a wave of abuse and harassment.
“Prince Harry is worried about Ms Markle’s safety and is deeply disappointed that he has not been able to protect her. It is not right that a few months into a relationship with him that Ms Markle should be subjected to such a storm.
“He knows commentators will say this is ‘the price she has to pay’ and that ‘this is all part of the game’. He strongly disagrees. This is not a game — it is her life and his.”

Markle, who plays Rachael Zane on the legal TV show, has a black mother, and that has also drawn some racial insults.

The statement added that “the smear on the front page of a national newspaper; the racial undertones of comment pieces; and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments” were things Prince Harry just would not tolerate.

“He has asked for this statement to be issued in the hopes that those in the press who have been driving this story can pause and reflect before any further damage is done,” Knauf added.

Sports / Novak Djokovic Congratulates New World Number 1, Andy Murray by Concaholic: 10:06am On Nov 08, 2016
Andy Murray is the new world tennis number one, displacing Novak Djokovic at the top of the rankings.

29-year old Murray won the Paris Masters on Sunday -- his 8th title of 2016 -- and is the top seed ahead of the World Tour Finals.

Djokovic has had a below-par second half of 2016, and congratulated Murray on his outstanding achievement.

"Congratulations Andy Murray! Very well deserved and hard fought milestone," Djokovic wrote on his Facebook page.

"Your dedication and passion has paid off and I am really happy to be in the same era with you. As to all my #NoleFam, thank you for being there for me. I am working hard and will see you all in London. I am always game when it comes to good challenges and (the) final eight is exactly that. See you in a few days."

The legendary Serbian still has the chance to end the year as the world's highest ranked player, when the game's top 8 players head to the O2 Arena in London for the World Tour Finals.

Sports / Juventus' Andrea Barzagli To Miss The Rest Of 2016 by Concaholic: 7:37pm On Nov 07, 2016
A dislocated shoulder will keep Juventus defender Andrea Barzagli out for two months, the club has announced.

He had suffered the injury in the Bianconeri's 2-1 over Chievo during the weekend, where he had to be stretchered off the field in the opening minutes after an awkward landing.

A statement on Juventus' official website read: "Andrea Barzagli was forced off through injury just five minutes into Sunday's 2-1 victory over Chievo at the Stadio Bentegodi after dislocating his left shoulder.

“Andrea Barzagli today checked into J Medical for instrumental tests and orthopaedic consultancy by Dr. Ravera regarding the consequences of the dislocation of his left shoulder, sustained in the Serie A match in Verona.”

“The player will have to wear a protective brace for around four weeks. The current prognosis for his return is approximately two months.”

He has already been removed from Italy's squad for the upcoming international matches, and will now set his sights for being fit for Juventus' match against Bologna on the 8th of January.

The Bianconeri are 5 points ahead of AC Milan, and will be hoping to maintain their lead without the 35-year old center-back.

Politics / Is The Governor Of Kogi State Missing? by Concaholic: 1:06pm On Nov 07, 2016
Kogi state governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello hasn't been seen in public in a while, and there are growing concerns over his whereabouts.

According to reports, the state's deputy governor, Simon Achuba, has been filling in for Bello, receiving visitors on his behalf.

Numerous rumors are already suggesting that the governor's health is in critical condition, and the opposition are already picking on that.

“We have the right to know the whereabouts of our governor," the coordinator of the PDP Youth Frontier, Austin Okhai told Daily Post.

"He can’t leave a private life while governing a state. We deserve to know where he is because he did not inform the state house of assembly that he was traveling.

“As far as I am concerned, our governor is missing and we deserve to know where he is. Kogi State is now without a governor and without a government for about two weeks now, this is pathetic,” he added.

Responding to the reports, the governor's spokesman, Kingsley Fanwo, released a statement saying the governor was only on leave.

The statement read: “My attention has been drawn to the spurious rumour that there are concerns over the health of the Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello.

“I want to state clearly here for the avoidance of doubt that the rumour lacks any iota of truth. It is a reflection of the depth the enemies of Kogi State have gone in their desperate angst against fate.

“The governor is hale and hearty, healthy and unwavering in his vigour to make Kogi State the Confluence of Excellence.

“I urge all Kogites of goodwill to discountenance the rumour as His Excellency will return from his two weeks break on the 12th of November, 2016.”

“The last time we spoke he insisted that I join him down in Santa Monica to pursue my education.”

Sports / BPL: Sunderland Finally End Winless Start by Concaholic: 7:46pm On Nov 05, 2016
Sunderland have finally won a Barclays Premier League game this season, after failing to win in their first 10.

The Black Cats secured an impressive 2-1 win away at Bournemouth, despite playing with over half an hour with a man down after Steven Pienaar was sent off in the second half for a second bookable offence.

Dan Gosling gave the home side the lead, using his midriff to send a cross from Adam Smith past Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. Sunderland had come back shortly after as former Nigerian international Victor Anichebe thundered an equalizer into the net off a smart assist from Jermain Defoe.

With the match winding down, veteran Premier League striker Defoe scored his 28th goal for the club to give them their first win of the season. Smith had brought down Anichebe in the box, and Defoe had converted the penalty past Bournemouth goalie Artur Boruc.

Despite the win, they remain bottom of the league, level on points with Swanswea, who have a game in hand. Anything asides a win would have meant Sunderland had played the first 11 games without a win, a new record.

Music/Radio / VIDEO: Schoolboy Q - Dope Dealer Feat. E-40 by Concaholic: 2:34pm On Nov 05, 2016
Rapper ScHoolboy Q has released the video for Dope Dealer, featuring rapper E-40.

Dope Dealer is a song off ScHoolboy Q's sophomore album, Blank Face. The video was directed by Ryan Staake, and shows the life cycle of marijuana, from planting to final consumption. Your darling Mary Jane starts off as just a seed, before growing into a beautiful plant.

Marijuana lives a pretty fast-paced and exciting life, according to the video. It gets to watch people get shot and also attend some pretty rad parties, before finally ending up in Q's studio.

The rapper has previously released a couple of videos off Blank Face, including a video trilogy for By Any Means, Tookie Knows II, and Black THougHts.

Pets / PETA Shockingly Compares Animal Mating To Rape In New Ad by Concaholic: 9:00am On Nov 04, 2016
The People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is a body that has been known to stir up controversy with their campaigns and adverts.

Their latest advert however, is way, way, overboard.

The video shows various women opening up about what seemed like rape stories. With a black-and-white color scheme, teary faces, and lines like “One man held me down, while another man touched me", “I was so scared. I didn’t know what I had done wrong.”, and "They got me pregnant", one actually thinks its a support video for rape and sexual assault victims.

That is until PETA decides to switch things up in a drastic manner.

The women soon begin to hold up pictures of cows and pigs, finally making it clear that the ad is not about rape victims, but the poor pigs and cows that are born in factories.

After what has become a disgusting sob show, PETA then adds: "Every year, billions of animals are born into the meat, egg and dairy industries. Almost all of them are a result of forcible artificial insemination. Almost all of them are a result of rape. Don’t participate, go vegan."

Culture / PHOTOS: Mexico Comes Alive For 'the Day Of The Dead' by Concaholic: 8:14pm On Nov 03, 2016
The annual El Dia de los Muertos, or The Day of the Dead, was held in Mexico on the 1st and 2nd of November, 2016.

Remember the opening scene of the last James Bond movie, Spectre? Yeah. It wasn't just a film scene.

The celebration is a festival of sorts, though it originally began as a day to remember the dead. It's a 3,000-year old tradition, and is based on the belief of the Aztecs that every year, there was a day when the dead arose.

The Day of the Dead features mainly elaborate costumes and white, skeleton-like makeup. It is also held in South America countries like Brazil and Bolivia. The festivities are actually broken into two parts: November 1 is The Day of the Innocents, used to remember deceased babies and infants. The actual Day of the Dead holds on the 2nd of November.

One of the more common outfits seen at The Day of the Dead festivities is La Calavera Catrina, a 1910 zinc-etching by Mexican cartoonist Guadalupe Posada. La Calavera Catrina's main outfit was a huge hat on her head, a symbol of class among Europeans in that time.

A theme this year was violence against women, with women using the parade to raise awareness for domestic violence, rape and more.

Music/Radio / VIDEO: Meek Mill - The Difference Feat. Quavo by Concaholic: 10:29pm On Nov 01, 2016
Just days after dropping his latest project, DC4, Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill has released a second video for a song off the tape.

Meek dropped the official video for Shine on Tuesday afternoon, and decided to give fans even more to ogle over by dropping the video for The Difference, which features Quavo.

Our favorite hyperactive rapper, Desiigner also makes a cameo in the video, showing his moves alongside Meek Mill and Quavo, while making his patent "brrrrrrrrr yaaa" sound (I think I did my best converting that to English alphabets).

Both rappers pose in a 2016 Rolls Royce Wraith with the doors open as they rap and brag about how there's a difference between us and them. The hook of the song goes:

"You got a bag and I got a bag but they know the difference
If you talking cash and I'm talking cash but they know the difference"
In a recent interview while promoting the tape, Meek Mill revealed he couldn't understand why people hated on his relationship with girlfriend, Nicki Minaj.

“Everyone goes after Nicki with me, and I don’t get it,. That’s supposed to be a bad thing? My lady’s a go-getter. Is that a bad thing? Yeah, I’m on my girl’s tour. We getting right every night. She’s probably making 450 or some s— like that. It’s lit.”
They just jealous, Meek. They know you're different.

Former One Direction band member Zayn Malik has written a new memoir, where he reveals a lot of juicy details about his personal life.

“There are things I address in the book that are very personal to me,” Zayn wrote while announcing the book on his Instagram page. “Things that I have never told anyone, things I still find hard to talk about. It’s a part of a journey that I am still on.”

The autobiography is simply titled Zayn, and he writes about his love for One Direction, drinking wine and much more.

One interesting part of the memoir is where he denies (sort of) cheating on ex-fiance, Perrie Edwards. He wrote in his memoir, per Hollywood Life:

“It was March 2015. I had been in a bad place for a while and I didn’t see myself getting out of it unless I made a change. My relationship with my fiancee, Perrie, was breaking down. To make matters worse, there were so many crazy stories flying around in the newspapers about us, and it felt like such an invasion of privacy, it made me just want to disappear for a while.”

Zayn Malik and Perrie eventually called off their engagement in August 2015, and the Mind Of Mine singer is now with model Gigi Hadid.

What do y’all think? Does tagging a story as “crazy” count as a denial? I do.
