Video: This Kid Hilariously Trolls a CNN Reporter Talking About Kim Kardashian's Wedding

Sometimes you  just need a little kid to give you some perspective. Like this reporter — she works for CNN, yet she’s chattering gaily outside the Kardashian home about all the mundane details of Kim Kardashian‘s wedding.

The Best and Worst Elizabeth Taylor Obituaries

Elizabeth Taylor was one of the most famous actors of our time, her legendary beauty, style and of course talent was something that was always admired.

Her nickname was “One Shot Liz” for being able to do a scene in one take, I had to do a double take when reading some of the obits all over the internet. Some are downright hateful, and others brazenly rude. I am appalled. The fact that so many people have forgotten what a star Liz Taylor was is just depressing.

Plus, Jesse’s lived on an Israeli kibbutz, so there’s no way he’s an anti-Semite.

Hilary Duff says she got involved with the campaign because people are “not kind enough to each other,” and that kids should not have to fear going to school. Hilary says that calling things “gay” has become too casual, and she encourages us not to unintentionally hurt others by using the term.
