The first dance between a newly married couple can often be incredibly emotional, but these six unique first dances take that principle to the next level.
All we have to say is: We’re not crying. You’re crying.
1. When this paraplegic veteran surprised his bride by dancing at their wedding without their wheelchair.
Sgt. Joey Johnson served in Afghanistan, and when he returned, took up riding motorcycles, which helped him with his post-traumatic stress disorder. But four months after he met Michelle Johnson at a concert in 2012, Johnson had an accident on his motorcycle that left him a paraplegic.

Wherever Boomer Phelps goes, Hollywood may just follow. Ever since Michael Phelps and fiancé Nicole Michele Johnson welcomed their son in May, fans of the couple haven't been able to get enough of the baby boy. Yes, we loved his appearances at Michael's Olympic races during the 2016 Rio Games. And you better believe we're following the four-month-old on Instagram each and every day. But as the family of three headed to Milan for a little fall getaway this weekend, some may have thought it would be the perfect opportunity to get away from it all and not be recognized every moment. For better or worse, that's not exactly how things are going. In between sightseeing and snapping...

Source: Getty Following Justin Bieber's arrest on Thursday, the Internet was abuzz with memes, tweets, and pictures reacting to the news. Bieber's scandal made headlines after he was taken in for suspicion of DUI and drag racing in Miami Beach, Fl, and his mugshot was released early Thursday morning.

Today was a busy day for some of the smaller guilds with the Visual Effects Society, the Cinema Audio Society, and the Makeup and Hairstylists Guilds all announcing their nominations for 2013.
First, we have the Ves, whose main category to look at is “Outstanding Visual Effects in a Visual Effects-Driven Feature Motion Picture,” where we find Gravity and four other nominees that are just going to have to be happy with the fact that they got nominated. This is perhaps the easiest category to call in the entirety of awards season, and I don’t mean just here, but for the Oscar as well (Last year’s winner, Life of Pi, easily took this category before going on to claim the Oscar). It’s true that films like The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and Star Trek Into Darkness had outstanding effects as well, but nothing even came close to the amazing,...

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez have been immortalized as couple forever in the nude and in bronze. Yes, you read that right.
The artist is Daniel Edwards. The artist’s piece depicts both young actors/ musical artists without clothing and merged into one, three-legged being. The life-size bronze statue has the look of a Hollywood award statuette with the pair standing on a podium, which bears the inscription, “Justin & Selena Forever.” Bieber’s manhood is covered up by a maple leaf, while Gomez’s lower parts are hidden by a Texas star. An armadillo and a Canadian goose also adorn the bottom of the statue.
So, where does one display such an unusual sculpture? The Texas porn shop called New Fine Arts will display the piece. The assistant manager of the store, (which is open 24 hours and sells DVDs and novelties) Michelle Johnson, told The Hollywood Reporter that preparations are...

While Vegas odds might have been in Miss California's (Nicole Michele Johnson) favor, the 24-year-old from Westlake Village, CA only made it to the Top 10 before getting cut out of the Top 5.
Rather, it was Miss Michigan (Rima Fakih) who took the crown. The Arab-American 24-year-old from Dearborn, Mi beat out the four blondes that comprised the Top 5 for the title of Miss USA 2010.
However, things didn't always look so promising for Fakih. She actually received the lowest score (8.3) in the first competition (swimsuit) of the evening as compared to the five women who eventually made it to the Top 5. She also nearly fell when she stumbled over the train of her strapless gown.
But she made it through to the final interview round, where she was asked whether she thought birth control should be paid for by health insurance (yes, she believes it should).
