I Feel Pretty stars, Amy Schumer and Emily Ratajkowski met off-screen yesterday at the US Senate building in Washington D.C. But their meeting was for reasons that were anything but pretty.


The actresses joined hundreds of others to protest the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

Kavanaugh's nomination has been shrouded in controversy after Christine Blasey Ford and two other women publicly accused him of sexual assault.

Since Ford first came forward a few weeks ago, alumnae from her alma mater have signed a letter of support and others, like journalist Connie Chung, have come forward telling their own story to let everyone know that they #BelieveHer.

Thursday's protest was yet another way for people to proclaim support for the allegations against Kavanaugh. Protesters were hoping for their words to be heard before lawmakers cast their votes in the upcoming days.

Yesterday's protest ended in the arrest of 302 people, including Schumer and Ratajkowski.

Schumer contacted CNN to inform them of her arrest while Ratajkowski took to Twitter.

Some people have tried to attack the actresses for agreeing to their arrest.

But others were quick to correct accusers, explaining that they were choosing arrest over resignation.


People are commending the actresses and the others arrested for their commitment to their beliefs.













While we can't vote on Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination, we can vote in next month's mid-term election. Make sure you are registered to vote before your state's deadline.

White House Ripped After Making Bonkers Earth Day Claim About Trump And 'Science'

President Donald Trump is a pretty well-known science denier so it's perhaps no surprise that the White House was soundly mocked after sharing a press release for Earth Day on Tuesday claiming that "We Finally Have a President Who Follows Science"—which is quite something given so many federal workers from health and science agencies have been fired in recent weeks.

The White House claimed that Trump is "leveraging environmental policies rooted in reality to promote economic growth while maintaining the standards that have afforded Americans the cleanest air and water in the world for generations."

Vacationers got more than they bargained for when the interior of their plane caved in during a Delta Airlines flight scheduled from Atlanta to Chicago on Monday, April 14th.

The interior malfunction occurred on a Boeing (yes, that Boeing) 717 as passengers had to use their arms to hold a detached white panel up until the flight attendants could temporarily secure the detached ceiling part.

RFK Jr.'s Bizarre Claim About Testosterone And Sperm Count In Teen Boys Leaves Even Jesse Watters Puzzled

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had even Fox News host Jesse Watters baffled after claiming during an appearance on Watters' program that testosterone levels and sperm count in teen boys are lower than the levels seen in 68-year-old men.

Kennedy—who is 71—made the claim during a conversation about the government’s plans to ban eight common artificial food dyes by year’s end. After outlining his push to combat chronic disease and listing a range of health problems affecting Americans, he shifted focus to male fertility, which made things very, very weird.
