Can the baby see Russia from her room?
Alaska was once russian, she is russian, I think she can see it from her window.
That made me laugh so hard it sounded like I barked.
All I can think of is Alaska Thunderf*ck from RuPaul’s Drag Race!!
THIS!
I’d totally name my daughter after her!
Thank you sooo much for posting about Bree Newsome. I was looking to see a story about her earlier this week.
Rih’s video fit the song perfectly. She’s really sticking it to her former accountant!
Royalty is a beautiful baby. I feel bad that she has such an awful father.
I saw Channing Tatum voguing on ig, it was pretty awesome.
I don’t get how the song fits with sticking it to her assistant. Did her accountant steal from her? no. Did her accountant lead her into bad financial decisions? Probably. But I don’t get how ‘bitch better have my money’ fits. Maybe its cos I see her as an insecure bully but if she still insists on dragging the money mess(she nearly went bankrupt) which we’ve already forgotten then there may be more songs like this in the near future (hint: not making it to Forbes 100 rich celebs despite new music and endorsements while still frolicking with her posse like she still makes mad money)
The video is not all that so I’m really surprised it still doesn’t fit into the alleged story line…..but that’s just my opinion
Yes, her accountant did steal from her. She had a lawsuit against him and won. Here’s a link with full details if you would like to read about the situation.

“(hint: not making it to Forbes 100 rich celebs despite new music and endorsements while still frolicking with her posse like she still makes mad money)”
Um, she DOES make mad money. Not even talking about her music, she just got singned as the face of Dior for example
Hi, AlmondJoy. I don’t have anything to add, just nice to see you!
Hi GoodNames! Always nice to see you as well 😘😘 I hope you’re having an awesome summer.
So far, so good. I hope everything is great with you, too.
ugh Rihanna…she’s so greasy. and so uncool to me.
I am in love with Rihanna’s video. It is ridiculous and I love it.
I think B*tch should seriously consider giving RiRi her money.
I don’t have a massive problem with odd names, but first names should flow with the last name. The ending ka really doesn’t work with the starting ca.
I’m usually thinking about these things too. Glad you pointed it out.
Wonder if she’s a John Green fan.
As I was watching the fantastic A Deadly Adoption, there was heavy promotion for her film. So I assume that why Bella is everywhere.
Damn Anne. WHY????
I think Bella’s handlers are also trying to capitalize on enthusiasm for the Disney show she was on (Shake It Up?) since it is still running in repeats on the Dusney Channel.
I don’t foresee a successful acting career for Bella as an adult. She was the weakest actor on the Disney show she did with Zendaya (who was miles ahead of her in acting skills) and doesn’t even seem convincing in yoghurt commercials. I’ve seen her in some other Disney or Disney-like stuff more recently and she just doesn’t have it, the other kids in the scenes do so much better and her poor performance drags the whole production down. Not as bad as Ali “stiffer than a piece of wood” Lohan when she was being pushed into “acting” by Dina, but too close for comfort. She’s been heading toward the “can’t act so I’ll attract attention with my body” route for several years now. She seems to be getting roles because kids know her from the show, not because she’s a good fit. She doesn’t even seem to try, so maybe she’s aware of it.
So Bella is limited even by child actor standards, which is really too bad since I remember how excited she was when she got the Disney role a few years ago. Wish parents would insist that their actor kids have more options than show biz to follow, since so many kid actors don’t really make the transition to successful actor in adult roles. They need to develop other skills and passions rather than wasting their time trying to promote an unlikely career.
I’m going to name my first daughter Bolivia and my first son Lichtenstein.
What if they’re twins? Minneapolis/St Paul or Trinidad/Tobago maybe?😂
Twins Lichtenstein and Luxembourg. If girl twins Bolivia and Bulgaria. Or Bermuda and Bahamas.
…come on pretty mama 🎶🎶
Nacogdoches/Natchitoches for southern twins lol
I have a daughter named Alaska too. After John Green’s Alaska of course, since she is one cool chick!!!
Name Alaska reminds me of a song Stephanie Says by The Velvet Underground:
“But she’s not afraid to die
the people all call her Alaska
between worlds so the people ask her
’cause it’s all in her mind
It’s all in her mind”
Ding! I’ve had that song in my head since I read the headline. I’m a massive VU fan, even have a banana tattoo in their honor. Wonder if that’s her reason, otherwise, not sure I like it. To each their own!
I just don’t understand why someone why name their child so bizarrely. My dad pulled this “uniquely named” stunt with me, at the last minute. My mother was going to name me
Abbey, and my father drunkenly changed my name on my birth certificate. My first name is a combination of my father’s first name, and my mother’s first name, making me “Bilinga.”
I have no middle name. When I was a little kid it wasn’t too much of a problem. However, as I became older, it became increasingly difficult. NO ONE could pronounce the name, it was almost always misspelled, and I was called BILINGUAL or asked if I was bilingual. Other times I was asked, oh, are you “bi”???? HA HA – so NOT FUNNY…. plus, I became incredibly shy and withdrawn, as this teasing became worse and worse…..even in my professional life, people felt it was so clever to ask me if I was bi or, oh, do you speak Spanish? ha ha ha…… so NOT funny and so unoriginal.
I wished and wished I had been named Anne, or Susan or ABBEY… I finally settled on a nickname, Billie, which I also hated but many people eventually dubbed me. It has taken me literally decades to finally be comfortable with using my first name. It is still something I almost always have to spell out for people, especially during phone transactions or making doctor appointments, etc.
My point is, please think twice about the name you stick your child with. It is not so amusing to be made fun of constantly. If you must burden your child with a creative and original name, at least given them a simple middle name they can fall back on. You could spare your child a lot o embarrassment and needless suffering. I ought to know, I’ve been dealing with this for 5 decades.
Name your dog, or your horse, or your cat, or your bird whatever the hell you want. Leave your kids a little less vulnerable to being bullied or teased.
THANK YOU
PREACH. My idiot parents named me after CCR. I feel your pain.
What does CCR stand for? The only thing I associate it with is Creedence Clearwater Revial. Is Jadzia your real name? I have an aunt and a friend both named Jadzia. It’s a perfectly normal, traditional name in Poland – short of Jadwiga, otherwise known as Hedwig, but you’re not Polish, right? I’m always curious how people from other countries pronounce it, since the “dzi” sound is not easy to explain.
Nope, you got it on one. Although the name Jadzia is, as you correctly note, a beautiful Polish name, I got it from DS9. My real name is Credence. Thanks, mom and dad!
I have a weird first name too, and a weird middle name. I completely agree with everything you say here – overall it has been a total pain, and I would much rather have had a less difficult to spell or pronounce ‘original’ name if I could have chosen.
At least give the child a boring fallback middle name like John or Elizabeth to use!
IKR??? People should think of the impact bizarre names will have on the child’s life. Especially given how bad bullying is these days. I know a lady who named her daughters Tangelo and Orangelo. You might as well wear a sign on your back saying: Kick me. I hope this trend ends — soon.
I wonder if Garner and Affleck are expecting the possibility of some information about an affair of his coming to light and pretending to be seperated for ten months is a way of limiting embarrassment or loss of reputation. Maybe he has somebody pregnant?
Either that or they really are the biggest frauds, genuinely staging PDA for the paps and publicly faking a relationship in an attempt to sell themselves as family people.
What is it?????
Ohh, the baby idea is interesting and makes a whole lot of sense with the 10 month timeline. I’m guessing there’s proof Ben cheated with someone and they’re going to make it look like they were separated when it happened.
Eh, I think Rihanna’s video is gross and misogynistic. (And no, you don’t have to be male to perpetuate misogyny.)
That’s how I see it too. It’s visually interesting and catchy, but misogynistic. And the song is crappy.
Riri’s video and song seem like a hot mess to me. Torturing and killing people just isn’t cool. And the song is dumb. If this is what our culture enjoys we’re screwed.
ok it’s like i call my kid Canada …. wtf .. i don’t like that
But if you did, then every time the kid does something silly, you could sing “Oh, Canada…”
lol
I’m going to name my children Boy and Girl.
Rhianna is really a pig.
Or Kid One and Kid Two. Really simplifies a lot of things. I have cat carriers personalized with Cat One and Cat Two for that reason. Have to hang loose about who gets to be Cat One for the trip to the vet (generally whoever gets caught first).
Actually, the old Romans pretty much did that in one period especially with their daughters: Prima, Secunda, Tertia, Quarta etc. added after the feminine form of the father’s name. Kind of the George Forman approach.
RiRi video is the $hit! Loves it!
Does Bella Thorne have stage parents like Kris Jenner? She’s 17, already had a boob job, probably some lip injections, and a 23 year old boyfriend. And she poses like she’s all sexed up, it’s as gross to me as Kylie Jenner and Tyga.
Someone please help this girl, she’s looking so thirsty.
Bella isn’t a good actor, so what else does she have? Wish she would just go to college for a few years and find something to do that she’s really good at.
Alaska Nebraska!
The Ben and Jen thing is very interesting. I don’t think they’ve been separated for 10 months based on that story and the pics. People can pretend all they want but those pictures look way too legit and yeah, they’re actors….but still. Interesting.
Hahaha, Mads Mikkelsen is The Bitch?!?!?!
I named my twins Ammonia and Hydrazine–seriously tho–who is Anne V?? Is that her in the flesh colored dress that doesn’t fit?
I’m I the only one who had no idea who this Anne V. chick was? I thought she was a RealHousewife or some other reality show hot mess from the title. IMO you have to be planet famous like Madonna, Janet Jackson, Giselle or Ms. Streep to go around with a single name especially a common name like Anne which to me is associated with Hathaway these days. None of these recent models are super famous.
We all know Batfleck has not been separated from his wife and in counseling for 10 months. This pap friendly family would not have been able to get away with it. TMZ looks like a total joke trying to sell the “seriously you guys they really didn’t think about the 10year anniversary, they like totally forgot”. As Wendy Wiiliams said, 10 years of marriage sounds better than 9, looks better for everyone and allows Gardner some more power. And of course the “no cheating” is hilarious. It works for Mr. Batman’s family man image, it works to save JennifervGardner from being publicly pittied and embarrassed (no one wants to be another Jen Aniston), and works to protect their children from being mad at Batdad. But the truth will come out sooner than later.
After reading the comments I still don’t know who she is. Pretty in the generic blonde way.
Clicked on the link; Russian supermodel married to a YaHoo exec.
Anne who?
I Could NOT make it to the end of Rhiannas disgusting video. Can someone PLEASE tell me, did the dog make it out alive???
I loved the vid, but mostly because of how excited Mads was after filming it; “I’m the bitch in Rihanna’s new video. Haha”.
The dog is fine. 😀
Thank you!!!!
I have no idea who Anne is but I LOVE the name Alaska. So cool! Seriously so cool. I’m pregnant with a girl, and we’ve already picked a name but that would have been on my list. Except I want us all to have different initials and my name is Abby so that is out. My son’s name is Wilder Dean. If we had another boy it would have been Denver Garrett.
It could be her middle name.
