Angelina Jolie makes her Instagram debut
Angelina Jolie has officially joined Instagram (almost crossing five million IG followers in less than 24 hours!) and her debut post highlighted Afghan girls' heartbreaking plight amid the deadly Afghanistan-Kabul crisis. Sharing a devastating letter that she was sent by a teenage girl in Afghanistan, the Eternals star revealed the noble reason why she joined Instagram: "This is a letter I was sent from a teenage girl in Afghanistan. Right now, the people of Afghanistan are losing their ability to communicate on social media and to express themselves freely. So I've come on Instagram to share their stories and the voices of those across the globe who are fighting for their basic human rights."

His name is Cosmo. We love him very much. Privacy would be greatly appreciated. For all inquiries please contact our publicist @chethinks," which is Jost's Saturday Night Live "Weekend Update" co-host and best friend, Michael Che's Instagram handle. Michael also had the jokes coming from his side as his sole IG post included phrases like "cancel jost" and "free cosmo," while promoting his stand-up comedy shows. Nevertheless, congratulations to the gorgeous couple!
Britney Spears shuts down boob job & pregnancy rumours

I didn't get a boob job in just a week ... nor am I pregnant ... I have boobs in these pics cause I devoured food !!!! Before I show you more pics of my body ... I want you to understand my thoughts on exposing my skin !!!! ... I wanted to see myself in a lighter way ... naked ... like the way I was born and to me looking back at my pictures when I shoot it's insane the psychology in seeing myself in my purest form gives evidence that pain ... hurt ... tears ... and heavy burdens aren't who I am.
