According to a report from DNAinfo's Murray Weiss, the NYPD is investigating social media death threats against cops from alleged gang members who are apparently promising to turn tonight's New Year's Eve celebrations into "Kill a Pig Night." But who are these violent tweeters? Do they exist at all?
Dan Bilzerian, a millionaire and avowed asshole with more than 5 million Instagram followers, was arrested at LAX Tuesday, and was being held without bail as of late Tuesday night. It's not yet clear whether his arrest has anything to do with the model he allegedly kicked in the face at a Miami club over the weekend.
Noted Kim Kardashian wannabe Naya Rivera (of Glee "fame") possibly trashed Kim on Instagram last night because eh, who knows. She pulled the Mom Card. If screenshots are to be believed, Naya commented this on Kim's pic of her naked Paper cover:
Alongside your selfies and sunsets, beneath your puppy pics and above your cat closeups, there exists a world where the extraordinary and ordinary commingle. A world where princes are treated like paupers and paupers act like princes. A world where, if Beyoncé would just plsss scroll down, you'd be able to properly communicate to her how much you want to eat her pussy.
Life's all no shirt, no problems when you're Miley Cyrus. Last night, the pop star-cum-provocateur arrived at Alexander Wang's super secret New York Fashion Week after-party in Bushwick naked from the waist up, save for a set of tasseled ice cream cone pasties and a pair of plastic pill covered cat-eye sunglasses (see above).

Teens today do everything on social media, including make school shooting threats. California police arrested a 15-year-old boy on Sunday for posting photos of dead bodies and guns to Instagram with threats to shoot up Valencia High School in the Santa Clarita Valley. One of his captions read, "NO MERCY WILL BE SHOWN."
There is perhaps no better microcosm of how easily the internet can throw together seemingly disparate images and have them make total sense than the Transportation Security Administration's Instagram account, where photos of confiscated weapons and weed are juxtaposed with snapshots of the adorable dogs that find them.
Jen Selter, the fitness model who became a star on Instagram because of all the work she's put into developing her personal brand—which, in this case, is a euphemism for "butt"— celebrated her 21st birthday in Vegas over the weekend. Also there was Dan Bilzerian, another Instagram star known mainly for his millions of dollars and the time he threw a porn star off the roof of his mansion and missed the pool.
When did Reese Witherspoon become America's sweetheart? Was it when the nation flocked to see her starring turn in Legally Blonde, a few months before 9/11? Was it when she accepted the Oscar from pretend Ray Charles for being the best pretend June Carter Cash anyone could ever remember, in March of 2006?
