'Extraordinary People': Jyoti is 12lbs and 24 inches but that doesn't stop her from living life to the fullest

Image
Jyoti Amge might be short but she lives larger-than-life. Weighing12lbs and measuring 24 inches, Jyoti is known as the world's shortest woman. Her parents, Ranjana and Kisan Amge, were told by doctors that Jyoti's condition was due to lack of hormones in her body. Ranjana recalled that when she was pregnant with Jyoti, the doctors feared something might have happened to her as they were unable to see her during the sonography. Jyoti was born after Ranjana had an emergency C-section but doctors were sure she would not live more than a couple of hours. Beating all the odds, Jyoti survived and is now living her best life. Right from traveling to different countries to acting, Jyoti has never let her height come in between things. There are times when she wishes people don't see her as a baby as she is 26 years old but despite this, she manages to greet everyone with a big smile on her face. One of the problems that she faces is finding the right type of dress. Bei...

Drake Drops Energetic New Single 'Nice For What'

Image
As he promised only a day ago, Drake has shared a new single just in time for those looking for something to soundtrack their weekend. The hip-hop star’s single “Nice For What” arrived just an hour before Saturday morning, coming late in the evening for a new music Friday release, but when you’re Drake, you don’t need to stick to the same timetables as everyone else. “Nice For What” is Drake’s third new single of 2018, and it could easily wind up being another showstopper on the charts for the musician. An upbeat, summer party-ready backs another perfect delivery from the biggest artist in hip-hop, and a chopped and screwed Lauryn Hill vocal sample helps the track stand out from much of the rest of his discography. It’s pitched perfectly, and Drake and producer Murda Beatz took some chances and allowed “Nice For What” to be slightly strange, but that only makes the song that much more alluring and interesting, and it shows that Drake isn’t afraid to try new things. Drake has f...

The new Westworld season 2 trailer promises blood as the robot uprising continues 3 This isn’t going to end well for anyone

Image
Last night, HBO announced that a new trailer for  Westworld ’s second season was coming by  interrupting the broadcast on all HBO and Cinemax channels simultaneously  — and now the trailer has finally arrived. Set to an epic, orchestral cover of Nirvana’s “Heart-Shaped Box,” the spot hits on all the major story threads that were left dangling from the season 1 finale. Bernard is still struggling to cope with what he is, while Dolores tries to convince him of the beauty and worthiness of all hosts. Teddy laments that he and Dolores have “ridden for 10 miles,” and all they’ve seen is bloodshed. Maeve wants to find her daughter — despite the fact that she may just be a figment of her programmatic imagination. There’s a quick glimpse of a figure from Westworld’s sister park, Shogunworld, and Ed Harris’ Man in Black intoning, “I’m gonna burn this whole thing to the ground.” It’s juxtaposed with him walking toward a ragged door cut into the side of the mountain, which ma...
