Fixed: Four years ago Mr. Brown’s career as a boy-next-door pop star seemed to come to a sudden end when he was charged in the brutal beating of brutally beat Rihanna.
I try to stay firmly out of the realm of celebrity “news,” but even if I’m only serving to prove the point in the article, get it right. His career didn’t (temporarily) melt down because he got arrested. The public hit pause on Chris Brown because he beat a woman’s face to a pulp.

UUUGGGHH LORD JESUS IN THE HEAVENS ABOVE, THIS SCREAMS SUMMER.
Just look at DAT CRISP. Mm.

J. Lo answers the question, “What have you learned to love about yourself?”
Good grief.
Must be fantastic to have to resort to hating your perfect dainty celebrity-wrists.
(Don’t go judging too hard ‘cause Beyonce’s answer wasn’t much better: she tries to claim she once had non-proportional ears. But don’t worry — they’re in proportion now. Phew.)
I love J. Lo but if there’s anything I hate more than a humblebrag, it’s a bad humblebrag. No tolerance for this.

Perfect summer dub.

Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner on the symbolism of Don Draper reading Dante’s Inferno at the beginning of Season Six, which takes place in 1968:
This man is in his worst state — the way 1968 is — because it is overrunning his life and it’s page 1 in the story: He’s going into hell. This is the descent. Maybe he’ll come out on the other side, or maybe he’ll just take up residence there.”
