Abigail Clarke, a TV personality in the UK … are chicken and waffles coming to Dunkin’ Donuts? … Jessica Alba on the beach in Hawaii looks as great as you’d imagine … “Accused Las Vegas con artist says he’s the one being swindled” … Piers Morgan took a couple shots at Beyonce and the internet got defensive … “CNN’s Jeff Zucker: ‘People want someone to blame for Donald Trump’s rise’” … Tamir Rice’s family will get a $6 million settlement from the city of Cleveland after their son was shot to death … things people under 30 don’t like: Media, Socialism, Donald Trump … a joint Bachelor/Bachelorette party is a horrendous idea … “Melissa Click claims she was fired because she’s white” … so Rachel Roy vs Beyonce all because of some lyrics in a song? …
