    Rebekah Shelton, who fans of Big Brother may remember as Rodrigo Lopez, shared an emotional video on Twitter over her confusion and upset over her transition. Speaking via Twitter, in Tweets that she’s now deleted, she spoke of her journey, since embarking on a series of operations to fulfil her transition. She spoke of her loneliness and the discrimination she’s faced since beginning her physical transition.

    She was left questioning whether the transition was worth it.

    The videos were uploaded after she managed to log into her old Rodrigo Facebook account and left the star feeling emotional. She said,

    “I went on, after five years, I was trying to find the Facebook account, as Rodrigo, you know, from the past. I was shocked, it’s hard to go through everything I’ve been through – having all these surgeries and things. It’s crazy when you look at yourself and the way you used to be, and it makes you wonder, what have I done?”

    After she logged on to the Facebook account she Tweeted a picture of herself entering the BB house as Rodrigo,

    “I used to be a handsome boy. What have I done to myself? I’m lonely. I’m lost. It wasn’t worth it”

    She finished her video by saying,

    “If you are following me and you want to transition, think. Think, once, twice, three times, four times, five times, because it’s not easy. You have more opportunities in your birth gender because there is still discrimination. There is still discrimination, you know so just think.”

    Dr Dannii Cohen, who writes for THEGAYUK said,

    “This is something the new transgender community would rather not talk about, understandable: they are getting their voice out at last and do not want people to doubt their validity.

    “But it is important, especially right now and should not be silenced.

    “Trans identity is wonderful – IF it is how you truly feel, but think about it long and hard for months, years and then discuss it with psychologists at least five times. If you do it simply because you are seduced by others on the internet and think it could fill a hole inside yourself or because you think you simply aren’t good enough the way you are I’m not.”

  • Wanna feel old? Guess what turns 10 this year

    Wanna feel old? Guess what turns 10 this year

    I mean where has the time gone?

    By Chris Cunningham (Email (transferred from the English Wikipedia)) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
    Chris Crocker‘s epic Leave Britney Alone rant, which turned him into a viral sensation almost overnight, is going to be 10 years old this year. That means Britney’s epic public breakdown is also turning 10 this year. His video was in response to Britney Spears’ percieved public meltdown, which ended up with her shaving her head in public.

    So what has Chris been up to since that video, which amassed millions of hits and countless memes and parodies, well, he’s apparently signed TV deals, appeared in gay porn and even released an EP.

    The 29-year-old star is from Bristol, Tennessee.

    The video was one of YouTube top 100 videos and had attracted over 200 million views before Chris deleted his account in 2015.

    How did Buzzfeed react to being called “failing pile of crap”

    1. So unless you were just under a rock, President-elect, Donald Trump just held a press conference in New York.

    Donald Trump just held a press conference in New York and didn’t hold back in telling news outlet Buzzfeed and CNN what he thought of them. In answering a question about an “unsubstantiated” report, according to the Guardian, he called Buzzfeed a failing company and that they were a “failing pile of garbage”

    So you might think they’d be upset by that – but according to Tracy Clayton, co-host of Buzzfeed’s Another Round, she said the “entire newsroom broke out in laughter”.

    She went on to question what was humanity, if not a failing pile of garbage.

    • The star says producers aren’t letting him back in after a visit to the hospital.

    • He apparently blacked out inside the house when wind hit his tooth.

    • He was suffering from “extreme tooth pain”.

    TMZ is reporting that US star Ray J has spoken out about how Celebrity Big Brother producers aren’t allowing him back into the Big Brother house after he left the house to receive emergency medical treatment for “extreme tooth pain” on the 10th January.

    Speaking to TMZ the singer said,

    “I have a bad tooth problem and I’ve been doing this show Big Brother for about seven and a half days. I’ve had this pain for three and a half days. It got to the point where some of the people in the house thought I was being ignored.

    “We took petitions to say, hey, we’re not doing any more tasks until Ray J’s tooth gets fixed.

    “Three and a half days in the house with all of this pain, they decide to take me out,

    “The wind hit my tooth and I blacked out. I end up in the hospital… They give some nutrition and I eat some McDonald’s and I’m cool. I’m literally fine. I’m ready to go back in the house but they won’t let me back in. I’m really hurt by it because I feel like I was doing well.”

    TMZ asked Ray J whether he’d sue for his fee, reportedly over £800,000 according to Perez Hilton, to which the US star said that he didn’t want to do that. Instead, he urged the BB execs to let back into the house to “let him work”.

    A spokesperson for the show has denied TMZ reporting.

    Many fans of the show have taken to Twitter to complain at how boring Ray J has been in the house and how all he seems to do is sleep.
