Selena Gomez has had a killer 2015. With the release of her second solo album, Revival, and two number one hits — "Same Old Love" and "Good For You" — Gomez made 2015 the year she became a true pop star. But, for all her accomplishments in 2015, 2016 is shaping up to be even better for the singer and actress. With only a few weeks left in the year, she isn't slowing down. Instead, fans can catch Selena Gomez in a brief cameo in The Big Short, a movie generating serious Oscar buzz starring Christian Bale, Ryan Gosling, and Steve Carell, opening on Dec. 23. Gomez only appears briefly in the film, but her cameo in The Big Short proves 2016 is going to be a huge year for Selena Gomez.
The Big Short, a movie about the housing bubble and financial crisis of 2008, might not sound like your typical Selena Gomez movie, but, that's exactly why director Adam McKay hired her. Gomez is just one of the celebrity cameos featured in The Big Short used to explain "boring" financial concepts to help audiences understand what the movie is about. Gomez, for example, is tasked with explaining a synthetic C.D.O. — not exactly what you'd expect from the woman whose last film credit was Hotel Transylvania 2. With The Big Short, Gomez is proving that her film career is following in the footsteps of her music by moving in a more mature direction.
Shaymaa Abdelrahman, a tall, green-eyed 20-year-old from Iraq's multi-ethnic city of Kirkuk, becomes first beauty queen since 1972 in Iraq. "Some people out there think we don't love life," said Humam al-Obeidi, one of the organizers, as the crowd spilled out of the Baghdad hotel ballroom where Miss Iraq Beauty Contest was held. The jury chose The decision was popular with those in attendance, especially in the back rows, where young men with hipster beards and tight blazers had been standing on their chairs shouting her name. "I'm very happy to see Iraq going forward," the new beauty queen told Agence France-Presse (AFP) as she tried to fend off a scrum of admirers hoping to clinch a selfie. "This event was huge and put a smile on the faces of the Iraqis."
Wearing her sash and holding her bouquet, Abdelrahman was fast learning her new trade, saying all the right things without ever breaking her smile. There was more talking than glamorous strutting during the pageant as the contestants, in high heels and cheap bridesmaid dresses online that were sleeveless but below the knee, pitched their charity projects to the jury. The pageant was designed to meet enough international criteria to propel its winner to the next Miss Universe contest, but some details, such as the Kalashnikov-toting guard at the door, set the event firmly in Iraq. The winner said she would use her fame to forward educational initiatives, especially among the massive population of people who have been displaced by conflict.
I can remember how pretty I felt the first time my mother tweezed my eyebrows. It hurt like hell but the way it just brightened up my whole face, was completely worth it. And I got used to the pain. Once my eyes stopped watering and I stopped blinking compulsively, I loved the way mascara elongated my lashes and made my face look more feminine. And Lord…when I started using blush, just a few years ago really, you couldn’t tell me nothing.
Every morning when I applied it, I’d recite a line from Bebe’s Kids: “Make ‘em look like targets.” I know I wasn’t following anyone’s guidelines, tips or tricks but I thought I looked good. And even though my mother, sister and a few other people told me I was doing too much with the blush, it didn’t matter. I loved my rosy cheeks.

Right after my husband and I returned from our honeymoon, everyone asked us: "How's married life?" Jason and I had lived together for more than a year and been a couple for three. But before meeting each other on OkCupid, we'd been frenetic daters, trying to make up for the long stretch we'd each spent with the wrong partner. Now, finally, I'd found my person, and we'd made it official. So when people asked about our post-wedding lives, I'd say, "It's great!" my voice full of excitement.
Jason was less enthusiastic. "It's the same," he'd answer bluntly, as though our marriage was a nagging detail he hoped to forget. At first, I found his reaction amusing. After all, it's not like we now texted constantly about how much we loved married life. But one night, two months after our wedding, I realized something was very wrong. We were out for drinks when I overheard Jason tell a friend, "I settled down really soon after my last breakup." I was stunned. Was he saying our vows had been a mistake?

“I have evolved with the kind of clothes I did for films,” said the designer who was in town for the Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2015. “Each film surpassed its content of creative inputs. Therefore, for me to say that a particular film was satisfactory in terms of my creativity would be wrong. I worked on many films including Lamhe, Khuda Gawah, Jodha Akbar and now Mohenjodaro.
