Angelina Jolia attends 4th Annual Women In The World Summit 2013 in NYC

As you all know, I’ve been trying to keep up with the story of Pakistani Nobel Peace Prize-nominee Malala Yousafzai. Malala is the fifteen year-old girl who miraculously survived a brutal assassination attempt by members of the Taliban. Shot in the head when she was fourteen for blogging about the importance education for young girls in her community, writing about this girl gets me so verklempt every time– agh! She just sounds so amazing! And I was really happy to see that her new charity was getting some attention from people like activists and philanthropists like Angelina Jolie. The actress just made a great contribution to a fund named after Malala and dedicated to the education of young girls. Click inside to learn more.

Who knew the 2013 Human Rights Campaign Gala was gonna get so scandalous?! LOL, some of our favorite people from ABC’s Scandal came together on Saturday evening in LA for a good cause. Kerry Washington, Darby Stanchfield (AKA Abby), and Katie Lowes (AKA Quinn) attended the gala and they looked pretty darn good. Kerry rocked a black Jason Wu gown and looked, as usual, like a total barbie doll in the face. Lance Bass was also in attendance with boyfriend Michael Turchin. Peep the gallery for more!

Selena Gomez hit up the black carpet last night at The 21st Annual Alliance For Children’s Rights Dinner in Beverly Hills.

Sadly, Selena‘s rumored boo Gucci Mane was nowhere in sight :(

Rihanna spotted out Christmas shopping in BridgeTown Barbados

As you guys may know by now, I have waayyyy to many issues with with Rihanna‘s personal/public life to write about the pop star as much as I once did.
