Basketball player and ex-husband of Khloé Kardashian Lamar Odom’s condition is reportedly improving following an overdose last week. Considering that last week’s news reports stated his family members and close friends were preparing for the worst, hearing that he’s hopefully on an upswing and on the way to restored health is amazing. Get well soon, Lamar!

Trump trumped by costumes

Alma Approved

Be it Jimmy Fallon himself or any number of “Saturday Night Live” actors, a fair share of people have donned coiffed blonde wigs and perfected Trump’s classic accent for humor purposes during the 2016 election season. The latest? Bruce Willis during a visit to “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” He wore a Trump hat, wig and suit, but followed his own persona. Still, the bit was hilarious with both men chatting about their hairstyles.

The Presidential Trap

DI Denied

If you thought the 2016 presidential race was full of misfits and looked more like a circus than campaigns for a political office, prepare yourself for 2020. Not only is Kanye West looking to run, but Lindsay Lohan has been expressing her interest in the position as well. Her winning doesn’t seem too plausible … that is unless “The Parent Trap” was really filmed by Lohan, and her twin who is also much smarter and more qualified is running instead.
