‘Married at First Sight’: Dr. Viviana Coles Calls Fans Nasty?
Dr. Viviana Coles of Married at First Sight was reading through some of the fan comments. And she said that she couldn’t hold her tongue anymore. Viviana went on to say that “these are real people” and that people should just wish them well and watch their journey.
MAFS viewers went on to say that the production of the show has a big part to play in what people say. And that half of the time, what they make it look like isn’t even true. One even said that they don’t see why they matched a young party girl with an older mature man.
After Dr. Viviana Coles said this, fans went at each other’s throats. But most people were against some of the less than perfect matches the experts made since adding two more couples. Married at First Sight viewers said they get that not everyone will work out but that some of the matches are terrible.

Why Chrissy Teigen Is Getting Criticized For Attending The Inauguration
In any other time, Teigen heading to Washington D.C. to support Legend probably wouldn't raise any eyebrows. However, due to the fact that the world is still dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, many people didn't agree with Teigen's decision to tag along. Needless to say, Twitter had a lot to say and it didn't take long for people to start criticizing not only Teigen's attendance, but Legend's attendance as well.

California Gay Couple’s Xmas Decorations Torn, Smeared With Feces
“They literally ripped them out of the ground, and wiped their asses with them, and carefully laid them at the base of our Pride Flag... I thought things might get stolen, but never in a million years did I think this would happen. I'm completely in shock,” he said.

Head pastors at Hillsong Church are accused of using volunteers as their personal babysitters for little or no pay, insiders said
After celebrity pastor of Hillsong NYC Carl Lentz was fired for cheating on his wife in November, sources told Insider that the issues at Hillsong run much deeper than one affair.
Several former volunteers said top pastors regularly took advantage of free and underpaid labor, and in some cases paid little or no money for volunteers to babysit their children.
In 2017, former Hillsong Boston volunteer Tiffany Perez said she was asked to take care of the top pastor Josh Kimes' daughter, Lyla, who was 4 at the time for $150 a week.
Perez often worked up to 25 hours a week babysitting, she said, which comes out to about $6 an hour, or half the minimum wage in Massachusetts. Perez also cleaned their home and looked after their dog, she said. She was not paid extra for the cleaning or dog care.

The Prom’s James Corden Under Fire For Offensive, Gay-Face Performance
According to Indiewire, many critics are frustrated with Corden's overtly flamboyant performance. The actor, who identifies as straight, is said to be overplaying the femininity of his character in an effort that comes across as gay-face. Much of the frustration around this centers the fact that the film is supposed to be an uplifting queer story, but it seems as if Corden's performance gets in the way of that. While not everyone hated the performance, it seems as if the general consensus is that it's insensitive, if not overtly offensive.
With the criticism around Corden's casting at the forefront, one of the questions surrounding it is why a queer actor was not cast in the first place. There is no shortage of queer actors in Hollywood, as the industry continues to evolve and give space and access to LGBTQIA+ folks that were previously denied. Opinions differ as to whether being queer is a prerequisite to playing a queer role, but it does seem counterintuitive to cast a straight man in a queer role in a film that celebrates queer acceptance.

Former Participants On Home Makeover Shows Are Revealing What Their Houses Look Like Now, And It's Shocking
Everyone loves a good home renovation show...but have you ever wondered what happens to those families after the credits roll? Do those houses that were miraculously constructed overnight actually last, or do they immediately fall apart when the camera crew leaves?
Friends were on a show a few years ago. It was a super intense three weeks of filming and the redesign looked great on camera. In reality, it was literally things stuck together with staples and tape. After the show, my friend took two weeks off work to rebuild everything properly.
My countertop company was hired to fix cabinets and countertops for a house after a Property Brothers episode. Like I’ve seen others comment, the show filmed around all the problem areas so on the episode it looked great. The homeowners were livid after the show just picked up and left and we were stuck dealing with them. Not a fun few weeks.
I work for one of the construction companies that was contracted to build the new house on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. This was like 10+ years ago when the show was at the height of its popularity. Anyways, it was a huge nice house built for a widowed mother with several kids (father had recently died, hence why she was on the show...). Even though the house was "given" to her, she couldn't afford it after a year or so (property tax, electricity, water, upkeep, etc...) and put it on the market. Simply owning a home of that size is very expensive and she couldn't afford it.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Viewers Troubled by Racist Scene
During the meal Franklin, the one and only person of color in the core Peanuts gang, ends up sitting on a different side of the table from the rest of his friends and is seated in the only piece of "non-proper" furniture, a lawn chair. The scene, for some, has undertones of racial bias and, as it does every year, has prompted some to take to social media to speak out about the moment. Here is a selection of what people are saying and be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Indian television has a real problem with LGBTQ+ erasure
Earlier last month, actor and co-creator of Schitts Creek, Daniel Levy, called out the Indian counterpart of Comedy Central on twitter for reposting a clip from the show that edited out a gay kiss.
"The censorship of gay intimacy is making a harmful statement" lashed out the multiple-Emmy winner, writing #loveislove. The tweet was flooded with replies featuring the gay kiss, and people reprimanding the network for exhibiting such prejudice.

You showed the kiss between two women, you showed the kiss between a woman and a man, then removed the kiss between two men? This is a show about the power of inclusivity. The censorship of gay intimacy is making a harmful statement against that message.

Baby Yoda Canceled Amid Accusations of Genocide
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. That also turns out to be true of the tiny.
Baby Yoda, who one year ago today cozied into the hearts of Star Wars fans with his bottomless eyes, fuzzy head, and adorable cooing, has invoked genuine social media wrath for last week's episode of The Mandalorian, in which the mystical infant remorselessly snacked on the eggs of an endangered galactic species.
Whether this is serious or silly depends, as Obi-Wan Kenobi would put it, on "a certain point of view."
In Chapter 10 of the Disney+ show, titled “The Passenger,” Pedro Pascal's bounty hunter agrees to ferry an amphibious alien woman known only as “Frog Lady” to a swampy distant world so she can fertilize her canister of eggs, which floated in the brine like peeled apricots. (Usually this show conjures memories of Boba Fett, but these called to mind boba tea.)

Keke Palmer Is Facing Major Backlash After Tweeting That Food Stamps Should "Only Work On Healthy Items"
EBT, also known as food stamps or SNAP, is a government-run program that gives individuals with low incomes a small budget every month to buy groceries. And the idea that the government should control what EBT recipients are allowed to buy is a talking point often made by conservatives who would like to see the program either reduced or cut entirely. (Trump, for example, has proposed getting rid of EBT and replacing it with preset boxes of food, in which the recipient has no choice in what they get.)
Suffice to say, Keke was ratioed pretty hard on Twitter for her suggestion — generating a lot more comments than likes.

World War III is now 'a real risk' due to economic damage caused by Covid, UK's military chief warns - as he predicts armies of robots will fight future conflicts
General Sir Nick Carter, the Chief of the Defence Staff, said Britain and the rest of the world would need to 'learn' from history and the international missteps that led to the previous world wars in the last century given the uncertainties caused by Covid-19.
Sir Nick told the Sophy Ridge On Sunday programme there was a worry that the increase in regional conflicts playing out across the world could ramp up into 'a full-blown war', mirroring the run-up to the two world wars in the 20th century when a series of alliances between countries led to years of bloodshed.
The senior official argued that, with the world being 'a very uncertain and anxious place' during the pandemic, there was the possibility 'you could see escalation lead to miscalculation'.
'We have to remember that history might not repeat itself but it has a rhythm and if you look back at the last century, before both world wars, I think it was unarguable that there was escalation which led to the miscalculation which ultimately led to war at a scale we would hopefully never see again,' said Sir Nick.
'If I projected forward another 10 years, I think we should be in no doubt that warfare will look different, there will be robots on our battlefield in future - there already are today,' he added.

Man asked to remove Halloween display deemed ‘detrimental’ to children
A councilman in the UK was asked to remove his outdoor Halloween decorations because they’re “detrimental to the mental health” of kids — and 2020 is terrifying enough.
The holiday killjoy emailed Ashan Jeeawon over the allegedly offensive display — floating skeletons, a trio of witches and an eerie green light — at his Bexhill-on-Sea home in England, Ladbible reported.
“It is my belief that the Halloween celebrations are detrimental to the mental health of many people. In particular of children and the vulnerable,” the person wrote. “There are more than enough things happening in the world to scare people without adding to it with the spectrum of ghosts and witches.
“I would respectfully ask that you take down the display as soon as possible. It is important that we promote a message of hope and not a message of fear.”
