Kanye West Disses Amber Rose After Twitter Feud With Khloe Kardashian
Following a Twitter war that erupted between West's ex-girlfriend Amber Rose and his sister-in-law Khloe Kardashian, wherein Rose called West's wife, Kim Kardashian, a "whore," the rapper had some choice things to say about his former girlfriend.
When asked if he felt compelled to tell Rose to leave Kim alone and just "chill out," West told the show's hosts, "She's just soaking in the moment. Nobody feel compelled to do nothing. If Kim had dated me when I first wanted to be with her, there wouldn't be an Amber Rose, you know what I'm saying."
And when asked about rumors that Kim was sending him nude photos while he and Rose were together, the rapper broke out withe a smile across his face and said, "I wish. Gladly, happily I would have liked to [have received nude photos from Kim]. By the way, it's very hard for a woman to wanna be with someone that's with Amber Rose. I had to take 30 showers before I got with Kim."
The 37-year-old rapper was also asked if he thinks Tyga's relationship with his 17-year-old sister-in-law Kylie Jenner was "inappropriate," and he burst out laughing, telling the show's hosts:
"I think he got in early, I think he was smart. They are closer in age than a lot of relationships that I know. I knew Tyga was smart," he said. Adding, "Yeah, I can't speak on nobody's relationship."
Earlier in the week, Tyga, 25, told the show's hosts himself he wasn't dating Jenner, but it sounds like a different story coming from West.

5 Ways To Make Your Partner Notice You Again
Does it seem like your partner is not interested in you? You don’t get those texts you used to get asking how your day is going. You don’t remember the last time he seemed super turned on and wanted to have sex with you. Maybe he barely even says hello when he walks through the door.
You try to do special things, plan nice dinners and outings he will enjoy, perhaps buy him small gifts or do little special things for him around the house, hoping and waiting for him to come around and notice how great you are.
And it doesn't work. You just continue to be the invisible woman, hurt, and confused and wondering how to get him back.
Well, lovers I’ve got news for you: Your man doesn't want a partner who orbits around him. He wants YOU!! He fell in love with you for who you are, your passions and your quirks and that's what is going to get his attention.
Here’s the rule: People can only love and enjoy you as much as you love and enjoy yourself.
Try these 5 things and breathe life back into your relationship:
1. Find Your Own Passion
Go back to thinking about what you enjoy and start engaging in your life from there. Enjoy whatever activity you love during your free time, which now includes the time he's around.
For example, if you used to really enjoy listening to music around the house and maybe even singing and dancing around, do it! If you use to get into elaborate cooking project with a glass of wine, do that! Absolutely anything from reading to creating new hairstyles, if you enjoy it, DO IT!!
2. Get Out Of Your House
Take a class (dance, art, cooking, or ANYTHING that you would enjoy) make plans with friends, go to some events (talks, shows, movies, art openings, live music, or, you guessed it, ANYTHING that you would enjoy!)
3. Dress To Impress YOURSELF
Wear things that you feel sexy wearing and spend a little extra time making yourself look sexy. Don't be afraid to get your sexy on anytime, even when you're cleaning the house. He will sense this vibe.
You're more likely going to successfully get his attention if your feeling sexy inside, as opposed to trying to look sexy for him.
4. Make Time For Family
If you're tied to the home and don’t have a lot of freedom because you’re with your children, start engaging more deeply with them. There are a lot of fun things to do with your children both at home and in the community.
When you start actively engaging with them and making it really fun, you’re not only going to be more fun to be around, you're developing invaluable neural and heart connections that help lay down or solidify the foundation for healthy social and cognitive development.
And hopefully, you’re developing a closer relationship with them that feels good. Your man should both appreciate and want to join in family time especially if it looks like fun.
5. Ask Him To Join You, But Be Ok On Your Own
Lastly, invite your man to join you in your good times and don't take it personally if he declines. Be persistent in enjoying yourself.
If you find your life is changing for the better and you're beginning to feel good about yourself, but your partner still acts like the walking dead around you, tell him how you feel.
Tell him you miss him and you miss the connection. It could be there’s something else going on for him and it’s worth seeking the counsel of a couples therapist to get to the bottom of it.

Lawmakers call for guns on college campuses to prevent rape

On her way home from a night class, Amanda Collins was raped at gunpoint on the ground floor of a campus parking garage at the University of Nevada-Reno, less than 50 feet away from the university police office.
Collins had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, but UNR, like most universities, does not allow guns on campus.
“The current law effectively legislated me into being a victim by stripping me of the equalizer I choose to use to defend my body and my life,” said Collins, now a gun rights activist and speaker, on her website.
Now, legislators in 10 states are sponsoring bills that would allow concealed guns on college campuses.
“If these young, hot little girls on campus have a firearm, I wonder how many men will want to assault them. The sexual assaults that are occurring would go down once these predators get a bullet in their head,” Nevada Assemblywoman Michele Fiore, who is sponsoring a bill in Nevada based on Collins’ case, told the New York Times .
But gun control activists say the bills are more pro-gun than anti-rape.
“This is a tactic by the gun lobby to increase their sales and continue to push weapons into different places,” said Andy Pelosi, president of Gun Free Kids and the Campaign to Keep Guns off Campus.
Republican control of state legislatures has emboldened the gun lobby to try and pass bills that allow guns on college campuses, he explained.
Nationwide, 10 states have laws to remove or loosen restrictions on concealed weapons on campus, while 17 states forbid firearms on campuses.
Still, most women oppose allowing guns on campus, according to the New York Times article, and gun control activists worry that introducing weapons onto campuses known for heavy drinking and partying would be dangerous for everyone in the community.
“Just saying, letting women carry guns on campus to deter rape, also means letting rapists carry guns,” tweeted Clay Risen, editor of the New York Times Op-Ed page.
But some lawmakers see it as a way to protect the one in four college women who survive sexual assault .
“If you’ve got a person that’s raped because you wouldn’t let them carry a firearm to defend themselves, I think you’re responsible”, said Dennis Baxley, representative of Florida, before a House subcommittee last month.
