Theory resurfaces that Taylor Swift was once an active 4Chan user
A theory has resurfaced online that pop star Taylor Swift was previously a 4chan user. For those who don't know, 4chan is an image board website known for its controversial and offensive content posted by users. For years, a theory has existed surrounding the Blank Space singer being a potential user on the site, and it has seemingly resurfaced as many talk about their clues for the theory. Here is some of the evidence users have gathered: 1) In November 2011, a user asked 4chan to name their cat, with one suggestion being Meredith. A day later, Taylor Swift debuted her her cat Meredith. 2) Faces very similar to Swift's have show up on 4chan. With users going so far as to compare backgrounds featured in the pictures on 4chan and other photos uploaded by Swift on social media. 3) A /b/tard (a forum on 4chan) claims they once spoke to a musician on Omegle who said her name was Taylor and that she was on 4chan. 4) A user on the forum asked 4chan why they would say if they knew Taylor Swift would be reading it. 5) "One of the 50 most famous people on the planet" asked the forum for questions. 6) A 4chan user posted "Nothing quite like a freezing cold, wintery beach", the same day Swift posted the same thing to Twitter. Of course, this isn't exactly the most compelling evidence, and it's more likely to be a regular person crafting the illusion of being Swift by taking photos form her social media and some sly Photoshop. 4chan's founder Christopher Poole (a.k.a moot) told /b/ forum to stop talking about it, saying the photos can all be found online and the screenshots are Photoshopped. He added that the photos are posted from an IP "that is definitely not her." Of course, when did a disproved theory stop anyone from believing it? "Taylor Swift pays moot to say she isn't on /b/ so she can remain anonymous", wrote one speculative user on Reddit. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Kendall Jenner fans defend model's 'boring' near-nude Christmas shoot
Kendall Jenner unveiled a stunning new Christmas campaign for Jacquemus – and trolls have candidly shared their honest thoughts. A near-nude Jenner can be seen wearing only a Santa hat in one of the photos. In another shot posted to the French fashion brand's Instagram, the 28-year-old poses in a fleece jumper and skis – and it certainly got peoples' attention. It didn't take long for Instagrammers to comment on Jenner's bare bottom, with one writing: "Is the ass really necessary?" "Should’ve chosen a new face instead," another harshly wrote, while a third brutal follower added: "Super blend sorry… like really real boring. Nothing emanates from her as a model, I don’t even know how that’s possible… I don’t care about KJ but I do care about and love the original essence of Jacquemus and this ain’t it." While trolls were thick and fast under the post, fans of the star jumped to defend her work. "I am buying whatever Kendall Jenner is selling any day anytime. She is everything that I want to see on a campaign. For the haters, look in the mirror, you are hating yourself. Bring that karma to your lives," one user passionately gushed. Meanwhile, Spanish singer Rosalia shared the love by simply chiming in with a heart emoji. It comes after Jenner bravely opened up about her anxiety struggles on an episode of The Kardashians. "I swear he [her dog, Pyro] has really bad separation anxiety," she told Scott Disick, Kourtney Kardashian's ex. "I have anxiety and I think he has anxiety. Maybe I’m the problem, maybe he feels my anxiety? I could be the problem. I’ve been really bad lately. It’s one of the reasons why I’m actually scared to have children."
