Gossip: Paris Jackson Joining ‘KUWTK;’ Khloe Partying With Mom And OMG

Paris Jackson was seen hanging out with Vogue model Kendall Jenner earlier this month. But on Saturday evening it was all about Caitlyn Jenner as the two posed at the 28th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. And now she is in talks to join the families reality show.


“Paris has been offered A MILLION DOLLAR contract to join the show. Ratings are down and Kris Jenner is looking for a solution. What could be better than Michael Jackson’s daughter joining the show,” sources tell NAUGHTY GOSSIP. “Paris is into it but her manager wants her to hold out for more money. They think she is worth over $2 million.”

Watch This Busy Badger Bury an Entire Cow

Watch this busy badger bury an entire cow in stretch of Utah’s Great Basin Desert. Take our word for it: The clip is worth watching. But why did the badger go to such great lengths to bury such a bigger creature in the sand? The short version is: The ground works as a sort of fridge for the badger, who will be able to feed itself from the cow for months to come.

As Gizmodo reports, University of Utah researchers inadvertently recorded the bizarre burial as they studying the behavior of various scavengers during winter months in the Great Basin. Hoping to catch vultures or other birds, in January the scientists had secured seven cow carcasses in the area with cameras placed nearby.

One week later, one of the researchers, a doctoral candidate named Evan Buechley, visited the sites and noticed that an entire cow had vanished. “When I first got there I was bummed because it’s hard to get these carcasses, to haul them out and set them up,” he said in a press release. “I thought ‘Oh, well we’ve lost one after a week.’”

Then he noticed a large mound where the cow had been. . “Right on the spot I downloaded the photos,” he said. “We didn’t go out to study badgers specifically, but the badger declared itself to us.”


The photos revealed that the badger had buried the cow over the course of five days, before returning to its den. But it ventured back to the burial several times over the next few weeks to feast from the cow. The practice continued into early March. Another badger was also spotted trying to bury one of the other cows, which proves this wasn’t just some rogue, cow-loving scavenger.

This Cockatoo Proudly Dancing To Elvis Will Be The Best Thing You See All Week

Everyone loves Elvis. Even birds. Take, for example, the cockatoo in the video below, who dances enthusiastically as his owner serenades him and his bird friend with a rendition of “Don’t Be Cruel.”

In the viral clip, which has since been retweeted over 55,000 times, the white cockatoo bounces up and down to the song. His buddy is less enthuses, and even lifts one leg up to keep his dancing friend away, but the jamming bird is undeterred: He just keeps on bouncing to the rhythm and flaring his plumage.

The dance continues for nearly two minutes, with the one cockatoo repeatedly showing off his moves and his impressive feathers. Elvis himself would’ve been impressed, as would Iggy Pop’s pet cockatoo, Biggy Pop.

Watch the perfect video below.

Fitness Clubs and Gyms Turn to Booze to Retain Clients

Fitness Clubs and Gyms Turn to Booze to Retain Clients

While it might seem counterintuitive, gyms and fitness clubs are turning more and more to alcohol as a way to build a sense of community among clients. The Washington Post recently spoke to several gym owners and representatives who described the influence occasional booze sessions have on their businesses.


“If a Spindler (our name for our members) knows the other people in the facility, they become comfortable here and show up more,” Jeff Shapiro, owner of Spindle Fitness in Chicago, told the Post. “The deeper these relationships grow, the more their basic psychological need for belonging is met and the more motivated they become. For us, alcohol accelerates the process of creating and deepening these relationships. Also, we are normal humans who like to have fun, so a party here or there makes us all happy.”

Amy Williams, a spokeswoman for Life Time Fitness, said many gym goers were already drinking together after workouts, so it made sense to offer it as part of the official package. “They do a hard Warrior Sculpt class and they find people in that class who want to go out and have a glass of wine or a beer afterwards,” she said. “So, they were doing it all along, and bringing it into our place just allows them to do it without having to get into their car and drive somewhere else.”

Some boozemakers are getting in on the action too, the Post reports: Yuengling sponsors a 5k and a marathon, and Michelob Ultra has built an entire marketing strategy around responsible drinking after a workout.

But what about the health aspects of drinking so soon after a workout—won’t downing a beer or two cancel out all the hard work you just did? Not according to Susan Whitbourne, a psychology professor at University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

“Really, the balance comes out in favor of your health,” she told the Post. “Even if you have a glass of beer or wine afterwards, it’s not like you’ve completely undone all the good you just did.”

Watch Police Drag a Confused Gator Through A Store

When you find a five-foot-long gator wandering around in front of a furniture store that sits in front of a lake, you have a few options: You could: A) leave it be, B) put it in a car and drive it around the store to the lake, or B) lead it directly to the lake by taking it through the store on a leash in front of confused and delighted employees. Thankfully for gator-lovers everywhere, Pasco County sheriff’s deputies picked option C last week.

“Come on, little buddy, you’re going to the lake,” one deputy says in a video obtained by the New York Post.

“Just escorting the gator,” he says later as someone–perhaps a store employee–chimes in from the background: “Ha ha, same day delivery!”

Once he was out of the store and by the lake, the gator was clearly relieved.

“Oh, he’s like, “That feels so much better,” the cameraman says. “He’s in heaven, look at him.

Making the story even more perfect: The gator was initially spotted in the store’s parking lot underneath a car with a Florida Gators bumper sticker.

A Real-Life Sharknado Hit Australia Following a Tropical Cyclone

A Real-Life Sharknado Hit Australia Following a Tropical Cyclone

Following a heavy storm, you never know what will wash ashore. It could be a giant blunt, or poop. The people in the Australian state of Queensland received property damage and floodwater following an intense tropical cyclone this past week. No one was seriously injured by Cyclone Debbie, thankfully. But there was a sharknado.

People keen on splashing around the floodwater were warned by the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services not to for a very valid reason. Why you might ask? Well apparently there was a bull shark that washed ashore.

You might consider this a fluke to be cast aside. But as Gizmodo correctly points out, this phenomenon should be called what it is: a sharknado. Now if you watched the documentary film Sharknado, you’d know that sharknadoes are natural occurrences when a tornadoes lifts a sharks out of the ocean and deposits them into civilian-infested lands. Chaos ensues.

As we mentioned, luckily no one was seriously injured by this sharknado. Schools were closed following serious flooding, but more alarming was a fire that broke out at Brisbane’s landmark XXXX brewery. More than 40 firefighters were dispatched to the scene, and were able to put the fire under control.

The Brisbane Times reached out to a spokesperson for the company, who informed the masses, there will be “no disruption to supply.” The people probably need the beer following all this calamity.

Legal Recreational Weed Spending to Surpass Medical Marijuana Sales in 2019: Report

Legal Recreational Weed Spending to Surpass Medical Marijuana Sales in 2019: Report

In just two years, North Americans will spend more on recreational marijuana than they do on medical marijuana, according to a new report from Arcview Market Research.

The biggest reason for the shift is, obviously, the increasing number of states and regions that will likely legalize recreational use over the next few years. Business Insider notes that both Canada and California could full legalize marijuana as early as July 1, 2018, which would change the ways millions of North Americans think about and purchase cannabis.

“There’s huge growth in the user base when you stop requiring people to get medical recommendations … when you have stores selling edibles and concentrates, and not just the dealer around the corner selling bags of weed,” Tom Adams, editor in chief of Arcview Market Research, told Business Insider.

Adams said that the cannabis buying experience wouldn’t change dramatically for those who already use medical marijuana. “They go into the same stores — or even nicer or bigger stores, now that there are a lot more of them — and they just shop at the medical cash register,” he said.

The major difference, he said, will be in how the product is taxed. For instance, recreational weed will be taxed at a rate of 15 percent when it becomes legal in California. In Colorado, recreational users pay on average 15 to 20 percent more than medical patients do.

DJ Khaled’s Son Asahd Has An Instagram That Will Give You All The Feels

Few expressions are more tender than the love a father has for his son. Depending on your background and upbringing, that declaration can take many forms from the silent acknowledgment, to playing catch, to a father saying outright, “Son, I love you.”

But if you’re DJ Khaled’s son, that love is shared the same way Khaled shares all of his feelings—with the whole world. You might think Khaled Khaled ridiculous with his inspirational sermonizing and never-ending lifestyle updates, but the way his social media obsession manifested with the love for his son is pretty special.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BSOpIXkl2ul/?taken-by=asahdkhaled&hl=en

Khaled’s son Asahd has his own Instagram that receives fresh updates constantly. Here is Asahd on the set of Pitch Perfect 3. Here he is chilling with pal Kevin Hart (don’t forget his other pal Justin Bieber). Here he is pulling up to Atlanta on a private jet. These are all transparently written in DJ Khaled’s voice, who frequently comments on his son’s posts with adorable messages. He is perhaps the only parent posting about their child on social media who isn’t annoying.

In case you feel any type of way about this father-son relationship, then Asahd has a comment for you.

https://twitter.com/thugtear/status/846887186326863876

DJ Khaled also made Asahd the executive producer of his upcoming album Grateful, and featured him as the album cover for “Shining,” a track with Beyoncé and Jay Z on it. Khaled went on Jimmy Kimmel to detail how Asahd picks tracks (apparently his puke and poops are “blessings”). This has led some to lightheartedly play with Asahd’s posts and his responsibilities as a 4-month-old to executive produce a record.

Anyways, Asahd and Khaled as father and son is a special relationship to see displayed across the internet. Somehow, it doesn’t feel exploitive. Khaled comments on Asahd’s posts with these sweet, goofy comments that showcase his love in a unique way.

All this love might make you call your dad soon and wonder why he never showed you love this way.

 

Teen Claims She Sold Virginity To Hong Kong Businessman For $2.5 Million

Teen Claims She Sold Virginity To Hong Kong Businessman For $2.5 Million

On HBO’s excellent mini-series “Big Little Lies,” a supporting character gets in trouble for attempting to sell her virginity on line for a good cause. A similar situation is now reportedly unfolding in the real world, save for the “good cause” part: An 18-year-old, aspiring Romanian model has reportedly auctioned off her virginity to a Hong Kong businessman for a staggering $2.5 million.

The Star reports that Aleexandra Khefren announced the winner of her very personal auction this week. The man is “very friendly,” she claims, but just in case representatives from Cinderella Escorts—a German company that hosted the auction and will take 20 percent of her earnings—will accompany her to meet the man.

“I wanted to sell my virginity with Cinderella Escorts rather than giving it to a future friend who might have left me anyway,” Kheferen said, according to The Star.“And I think many other girls have the same attitude. How many would possibly forgo their first time in retrospect if they could have 2.3 million euros ($2.5 million) instead?”

Since news of Kheferen’s sale broke, Cinderella says it has received hundreds of requests from other women.

“Over 300 virgins send us a request for selling their virginity on our website,” a rep told the Star. “Girls from Australia, Europe, Africa, North and South America, from arabic countries and from Asia.The wish of selling somebody’s virginity is no exception.”

Science Answers The Question: Why Does Marijuana Smell Like Lemon, Skunk And More

Science Answers The Question: Why Does Marijuana Smell Like Lemon, Skunk And More

University of British Columbia scientists have scanned the genome of cannabis plants to find the genes responsible for giving various strains their lemony, skunky or earthy flavors, an important step for the budding legal cannabis industry.

“The goal is to develop well-defined and highly-reproducible cannabis varieties. This is similar to the wine industry, which depends on defined varieties such as chardonnay or merlot for high value products,” said Jörg Bohlmann, a professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories and faculty of forestry at UBC. “Our genomics work can inform breeders of commercial varieties which genes to pay attention to for specific flavor qualities.”

The research is part of an ongoing collaboration between Bohlmann, graduate student Judith Booth, and Jonathan Page, an adjunct professor in the botany department who founded the cannabis testing and biotechnology company Anandia Labs.

They found about 30 terpene synthase genes that contribute to diverse flavours in cannabis. This number is comparable to similar genes that play a role in grapevine flavour for the wine industry. The genes the researchers discovered play a role in producing natural products like limonene, myrcene, and pinene in the cannabis plants.  These fragrant molecules are generally known in the industry as terpenes.

“The limonene compound produces a lemon-like flavor and myrcene produces the dank, earthy flavour characteristic of purple kush,” said Booth.

They also found a gene that produces the signature terpene of cannabis, beta-caryophyllene, which interacts with cannabinoid receptors in human cells along with other active ingredients in cannabis.


Bohlmann says the economic potential of a regulated cannabis industry is huge, but a current challenge is that growers are working with a crop that is not well standardized and highly variable for its key natural product profiles.

“There is a need for high-quality and consistent products made from well defined varieties.” he said.

The researchers say it will also be important to examine to what extent terpene compounds might interact with the cannabinoid compounds such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that confer the medicinal properties of cannabis.

The study was published in PLOS ONE.
