How Becki Newton Found Success By Refusing To Play Perfect Women

Image
A decade after Ugly Betty put her on the map, the 36-year-old actor is back doing what she does best on Weird Loners: making unlikable characters lovable. Fox "It's not a basic human right to be on a hit television show," said Becki Newton, former star of ABC's hit series Ugly Betty , followed by two more network comedies that were quickly canceled. "Most shows aren't hits. So I'm aware I've already experienced both extremes and now I'm getting to experience everything else in between." At the lowest end of Newton's professional career sits Love Bites , an NBC comedy created by Cindy Chupack ( Sex and the City ) that was derailed by real-life pregnancies (Newton's), contract woes (Jordana Spiro's), and endless retooling (the network's) before debuting in June 2011 to less than 3 million viewers (a series high). At the other end sits Ugly Betty , a full-fledged cultural phenomenon that premiered to 16 million viewers in 2006.

Coachella And Lollapalooza Are The Latest Venues To Ban Selfie Sticks

Image
You’re gonna have to work for that perfect Instagram shot. Selfie sticks — like weapons, fireworks, and drugs —will not be allowed at this year's Coachella or Lollapalooza music festivals. Chris Pizzello / AP According to NME , major venues in the U.K., including O2 Academy Brixton, O2 Arena, and the SSE Wembley Arena have banned selfie stick for months. At issue was their tendency to block other concert goers' views as well as the possibility for the sticks to hit bystanders in the head. International tourist attractions have also taken a stand against the sticks . The Palace of Versailles banned them citing a need to protect artwork and visitors. Museums including the Albertina in Austria, the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. and the Museum of Modern Art in New York no longer allow selfie sticks, and Brazilian sports stadiums have feared the rods could be used as weapons by groups of rival fans. Coachella specifically called out any would-be selfie stick users by additional

His Husband Died In 2013, But Jim Obergefell Is Still Fighting For Their Marriage

Image
CINCINNATI — The plane was only on the ground a matter of minutes. Just enough time for wedding vows and little else. Jim Obergefell and John Arthur had wanted to marry for a long time. In 2013, after the Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act, they decided this was the time to do it — even though Arthur was very, very ill. He had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in 2011, a fatal neurological disease that paralyzes the body. He was confined to his bed. The couple could not get married in their home state of Ohio. They could, however, get married in one of the handful of states that did allow same-sex couples to marry. So their wedding took place aboard a small, specially equipped medical plane with two pilots, a nurse, and Arthur’s aunt — she performed the ceremony. “We landed at Baltimore, sat on the tarmac for a little bit, said ‘I do,’ and 10 minutes later were in the air on the way home,” Obergefell said. The marriage performed there on the tar

The Actor Who Is Changing How We See Asian Men On Television

Image
In a leading role as an Asian character who’s not desexualized like most portrayals of Asian men, Christopher Sean — who plays gay baseball player Paul Narita on Days of Our Lives — is breaking new ground. Macey J. Foronda / BuzzFeed Asian-American men on television have long been relegated to sidekick status (B.D. Wong's Dr. George Huang on Law & Order: SVU ), and on the rare occasion that they do step into the forefront, it's often in the form of desexualized characters (Masi Oka's Hiro Nakamura on Heroes ). But when half-Japanese, half-white actor Christopher Sean joined Days of Our Lives in November 2014, he took on a role unlike any other character on television, let alone daytime television: closeted baseball player Paul Narita. "I had a big poster of Bruce Lee on my wall, and it is quite stereotypical ... I didn't really have someone that was relatable to me in that world for myself," Sean, who grew up in Southern California, told BuzzFeed during

How Yemen Became The Middle East's Latest Regional Nightmare

Image
As Saudi Arabia and Egypt say they’re prepared to send in ground troops, here’s a look at the how Yemen got to this point. Warplanes flying out of Saudi Arabia began conducting airstrikes in Yemen on Thursday, and the Egyptian army said it was prepared to join the Saudis in launching a ground invasion of the country. Khaled Abdullah Ali Al Mahdi / Reuters Yemen has been a mess for years. But how did its domestic chaos — ranging from civil war to a struggle between Al Qaeda and ISIS — turn into a regional nightmare? Wikimedia The result was a brief but bloody civil war in 1994. President Ali Abdullah Saleh emerged victorious. He spent the rest of the decade solidifying his grasp on power. After the mujahideen's fight against the Soviets in Afghanistan ended, Yemen was where Osama bin Laden chose to foster the growth of al-Qaeda.
