I'm gonna let you finish but...

A rant to Kanye.

I'm gonna let you finish but...

Dear Kanye,

I'm gonna let you finish but... you're the worst.

From hating on Taylor Swift to asking for money via Twitter from Mark Zuckerberg, you are such an interesting person. I wonder if you have any concept of the real world, and if you know any current events. Recent pictures of Kim Kardashian don't count as news.

Declaring you are 53 million dollars in debt is not acceptable in any way, because you aren't. Just because you invested in a failed fashion line because people don't want to buy $800 sweatpants does not mean that the creator of Facebook owes you money. Leave the poor guy alone. Did you know people in Central America have to live off of $2 a day? Do you know the suffering that is happening right now in Syria? Those are the people who need financial help, not you. If you want to dress your family in furs and buy expensive cars, that's your call, but going around asking for money when you don't need it is a crummy thing to do. And to top it off, it's nobody's fault but your own that your fashion line was a failure.

Also, you should probably get to know your children. You have multiple now, and it never seems like you are with them. Do you know their favorite food? Do you know what time they go to bed? You should stop tweeting for a second to see what kind of children you are raising. Would you want your child to read your Twitter rants? Do you think they would be proud of that? Maybe even put some of your fur money toward their future education.

What happened to your humbleness, Kanye? I bet you were humble at the beginning of your music career. You probably took into account every single penny that you came in contact with, and now you have too many, so you forgot the value of them. When I listen to your early music (and yes, as a white female I have listened to some of it) you seem clever, but not angry. Now you seem angry and ranting, and when I listen to your music, I hear a muddled vision for the future. I hate to burst your bubble, but you are not the future president, you are not the most innovative artist out there, and you won't ever be someone I admire.

Kanye, it seems like you want to be a call to change, which I respect, but you need to do it in a more positive way. Having a 12-minute lecture/rant on stage at a concert is just agitating people, not helping whatever social change you want to have.

And please, please, please stop tweeting. Conflict in the Middle East needs to be televised more, not your tweets that don't make any sense.

Sincerely,

A white female you probably dislike

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
