Camila Mendes is one of the stars of the CW hit show Riverdale, where she stars as Veronica Lodge. the 23-year-old has had a meteoric rise to fame after attending New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, and now she is only set to see her star rise as the show prepares to return for a third season.

Mendes, who was born to Brazilian parents, is proud to introduce Latino culture and dialect to the series.

“That choice made so much sense,” Mendes said in an interview with W Magazine. “I’m so happy…and it’s not just Veronica, it’s the whole Lodge family being all Latino…portraying Latinos as a strong, powerful, intelligent family. We do well, we’re go-getters.”

She added, “Being Latina, everyone is always going to want to be like ‘Fierce, sexy, strong, confident!’—which is great, I think that’s definitely a good type of personality to portray and it’s empowering—but Latinas can be the goofy, nerdy, quirky, vulnerable women that I think is usually associated with white girls.”

After bursting onto the scene with Riverdale, where she won a Teen Choice Award for Choice Scene Stealer, she also made the transition to the silver screen where she made her feature film debut in The New Romantic before filming The Stand-In.

She used the opportunity to speak out against body-shaming.

“It’s unfortunate that one unflattering photo of my stomach circulating the internet causes hundreds of people to think that I’m pregnant,” she wrote in an Instagram post. “Nope. Not pregnant.

“This is just my body. And sometimes I’m bloated. Sometimes and unflattering photo is taken of me. Sometimes I go through periods of time where I gain weight. My body is something that I will NEVER apologize for. My body will constantly go through change. And so will yours. And that’s fine.

FEELS ALERT: Chadwick Boseman Gave His MTV Movie Award To Waffle House Hero James Shaw

MTV

Despite the fact the Black Panther came out almost half a year ago, Chadwick Boseman is still racking up the praise for Black Panther and his portrayal of the titular character. And while we’ve all seen the memes of Boseman looking sick of doing the “Wakanda Forever” pose, that doesn’t mean he’s any less grateful.

At last night’s MTV Movie Awards, Boseman won the award for Best Hero. Now, while the MTV Movie Awards may not be the Academy Awards, Boseman used the platform to honor someone who deserved true praise nonetheless.

Instead of taking his allotted speech time to give a pre-packaged, half-hearted thank you, Boseman brought Waffle House hero James Shaw Jr. to the stage to receive some much-deserved applause.

“Receiving an award for playing a superhero is amazing but it’s even greater to acknowledge the heroes we have in real life…He fought off a gunman in Antioch, Tennessee, at a Waffle House. He saved lives … a real-life hero,” Boseman said.

James Shaw Jr. is known for disarming gunman Travis Reinking, who was armed with an AR-15 style rifle during the Nashville Waffle House shooting in Antioch, Tennessee, saving many lives as a result.

When asked about his actions, Shaw Jr. simply said: “I was completely doing it just to save myself … I did save other people … I figured if I was going to die, he was going to have to work for it.”

Rapper XXXtentacion was shot and killed at age 20 in Miami, Florida on Monday, June 18. The controversial rapper had a long list of disturbing domestic violence incidents and legal issues. Despite the laundry list of bad deeds, XXXtentacion had a strong following and immediately following his death a video from Instagram began to surface.

In the video, XXXtentacion can be seen foreshadowing his own death and explaining what he hopes that his legacy will be.

“If worse thing comes to worst, and I f—ing die or some s— and I’m not able to see out my dreams, I at least want to know that the kids perceived my message and were able to make something of themselves and able to take my message and use it and turn it into something positive and to at least have a good life,” he said in an undated Instagram live video.

“If I’m going to die or ever be a sacrifice, I want to make sure that my life made at least five million kids happy or they found some sort of answers or resolve in my life regardless of the negative around my name, regardless of the bad things people say to me.”

He added that depression and your body do not define you.

“Do not let your depression make you. Do not let your body define your soul, let your soul find your body. Your mind is limitless. You are worth more than you can believe. All you have to do is dream and all you have to do is want to fulfill that dream and have the strength,” he said.

XXXtentacion was leaving a motorsports shop at the time he was shot and killed in what is being described as a robbery.

Top 5 Breakfast Cereals To Make You Feel Like A Kid Again

Let’s be real here whenever we are in a rush before work you have no energy to make breakfast. Can you remember as a kid waking up tired but when your mom or dad set a bowl of your favorite sugary cereal you were instantly happy? Making yourself your bowl of cereal today takes you back to those days. Forget about the eggs, oatmeal, smoothies, bacon, okay maybe not bacon. But, nothing can beat the childhood brands we all know and love. Every bite can bring back every good memory you lived in the past. And we are here to tell you the top 5 best kinds of cereal you had as a kid. So, before you run to the grocery to grab a box read our choices and see if you agree.

Captain Crunch Berries

Probably one of the cereals that do feel like your mouth is being ripped to shreds, but it didn’t stop you from eating it. Comparing it to the big brother, the original Captain Crunch, the berries add a flavor that mixes well with the rest of the cereal. It also combines some good sugary tastes in the milk. Even though it’s full of sugar, you can think that you are getting your morning fruit in and feel a little less guilty.


Cocoa Puffs

Instagram Photo

Besides the Cuckoo Bird in every Cocoa Puffs commercial, the cereal made us all crazy for these little chocolate balls. Chocolate balls for breakfast are so mind-blowing you didn’t think it could get better, then you look at the milk that has turned into chocolate milk. It’s like heaven in a bowl. Trying to be a replica to Trix, the chocolate flavor took the win. Trix was never a fan favorite. And fruit can’t beat chocolate unless you mix it.


Lucky Charms

We know we all use to buy this cereal just for the marshmallows, but we can’t argue with the magical taste of Lucky Charms. A kind of cereal that is good with or without milk. I bet some of you guys could finish the box in one sitting. Now, being realistic here, there is a lot of sugar in this cereal, but we all knew it. That didn’t stop our parents from letting us eat it.


Frosted Flakes

Instagram Photo

Like the tiger Tony would say, “They’re Gr-r-reat!” and we 100% agree with him. Frosted Flakes have become a huge fan favorite and has stayed that way for years since it’s release in 1951. The sugary and frosty goodness makes every kid and adult smile grow more prominent with each bite. No one is ever too old to eat frosted flakes.


Cinnamon Toast Crunch

Instagram Photo

Everyone loves French toast, but a lot of us couldn’t have it every morning. That was until General Mills came out with Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Each square piece is covered with cinnamon sugar that can coat your mouth with just one bite. Once you are finished the milk turns into a sugary liquid that will give you a sugar rush, but you don’t care because it tastes so good.

What Moves The Boston Celtics Should Make In The Offseason

Falling just one game short of the NBA finals without arguably their best two players, general manager Danny Ainge has positioned the green and white to be in almost too perfect of a spot for the next decade with many important decisions to make this offseason that will shape the teams future for years to come. Terry Rozier, the point guard who burst onto the scene out of nowhere is up for an extension as well as elite defender Marcus Smart’s impending unrestricted free agency. Not to mention that Kawhi Leonard may also be available via trade and with all the draft picks Aigne has accumulated, he is definitely something to consider.


Marcus Smart

Instagram Photo

While the stat sheet rarely does Marcus Smart any justice, he is without question one of the most important players on this roster. His ability to guard one through four is an extremely rare trait and would be very hard to replace. He has embraced the sixth man role perfectly and has won over the fans with his hard work and hustle plays. Most importantly, Smart wants to be in Boston and with so few teams having cap space this summer, unless a team like the Hawks make some ludicrous offer in the $15-$20 million dollar range, the Celtics should be willing to match anything if they can not just get the deal done themselves.


Terry Rozier

Instagram Photo

Assuming the Celtics do indeed keep Smart, they should also hold on to Rozier for at least one more season. He played like an All-Star when it mattered most and shifting back to the bench where he will likely be pitted against other team’s benches should allow him to thrive even more. With the ability to bring him and Smart off the bench, half of the teams in the NBA would love for that to be their starting backcourt. There are two arguments for getting rid of one them that simply do not make sense at this point in time. The first is that you are not going to pay to backup guards an eight-figure salary. Especially when you also know you are going to be paying Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum max contracts when they are eligible. The second is that many critics to the situation claim that Rozier and Smart do the same job. To put it nicely, that claim is a fallacy. Smart is of the Swiss army knife prototype with the ability to contribute in a number of ways. Whether it’s guarding the opposing teams best player, running the point in pick and roll, or even hitting timely threes, Smart can do a little bit of everything. Rozier is a solid defender in his own right thanks to his long arms and elite athleticism, but where he really thrives in on the offensive end and the glass. Rozier can get you a bucket with an old school break-you-down isolation type play, when he’s not gassed like he was in game seven of the eastern conference finals he can be a lights out three point shooter, whether its off the dribble or catch and shoot, finally he has also learned to be a great passer out of pick and roll situations. They both have the ability to play off the ball and are actually a perfect pairing for each other, so while they still have Rozier on a rookie deal the wisest move would be to keep the guys that led you to one game away from the finals.


Kawhi Leonard

Instagram Photo

If Ainge is worried about the expensive payroll that will come to fruition in just a few years with this roster, trading for Leonard could actually ease the pain of that. Having Rozier and Smart is a luxury, not a necessity. Same goes for wing players Gordon Hayward, Jaylen Brown, and Jayson Tatum. Trading two of these guys for Leonard would make a lot of sense. Of those guys, the Spurs would likely prefer budding star Jayson Tatum who is probably off the table before negotiations even begin. Next would be Gordon Hayward who is also extremely unlikely to be dealt since the Celtics just signed him and have not even got a chance to see what he and coach Brad Stevens could do in there the second term together. This leaves the Spurs to choose from Brown, and either Smart or Rozier. With all three players adding value to the team, Ainge would likely just agree to whoever Spurs GM R.C. Buford covets. Picks may also be thrown in, but with Kawhi, Hayward, and Irving all entering their prime this deal makes just as much sense as keeping the group together.

COED’s Weed Strain of the Week: Northern Lights

As the years go by and the youth become the adults, weed has assimilated itself more and more into everyday life, and therefore, everyday business. Medical marijuana, commercial marijuana, marijuana paraphernalia, literal marijuana commercials, edible marijuana, marijuana oil, marijuana magazines, and now, COED marijuana articles. Everybody else in the United States seems to be getting in on the reefer madness, so we’ve decided to do the same by introducing a new franchise: Weed Strain of the Week.

When I think of weed strains, the first thing that comes to mind is the 2008 stoner comedy classic Pineapple Express. In one of the earliest scenes of the movie, Saul explains to Dale how fire his newest strain of marijuana — Pineapple Express — is by only referring to previous strains that Dale had smoked.

“This is like if that Blue Oyster shit met that Afghan Kush I had – and they had a baby. And then, meanwhile, that crazy Northern Light stuff I had and the Super Red Espresso Snowflake met and had a baby. And by some miracle, those two babies met and fucked – this would the shit that they birthed.”

The strain “Super Red Espresso Snowflake” always stood out because it’s the perfect skewering of drug dealers who tried tell you what kind of strain you were buying: they were really just making shit up. However, now that legal marijuana and dispensaries exist, actual marijuana strains are more prevalent than ever, so we figured it’s time we start learning them all, one by one.

This week’s Weed Strain of the Week? Northern Lights


Northern Lights

– Species:

  • Indica

– About (via Leafly):

“Northern Lights stands among the most famous strains of all time, a pure indica cherished for its resinous buds, fast flowering, and resilience during growth. Itself a descendant of indigenous Afghani and Thai landrace strains, Northern Lights has given rise to famous hybrids like Shiva Skunk and Super Silver Haze. Rumor has it that Northern Lights first sprouted near Seattle, Washington, but was propagated out of Holland after 1985 at what is now Sensi Seeds.

Pungently sweet, spicy aromas radiate from the crystal-coated buds, which sometimes reveal themselves in hues of purple. Northern Lights’ psychoactive effects settle in firmly throughout the body, relaxing muscles and pacifying the mind in dreamy euphoria. Comfortable laziness allows patients to relieve pain and sleeplessness, while its mellow contentment roots out depression and stress. Several different Northern Lights phenotypes circulate the market, but Sensi Seeds recommends a general indoor flowering time of 45 to 50 days.”

– History:

Northern Lights is a variety of cannabis developed in California that was introduced in the Netherlands in the 1980s of the twentieth century and formed the basis for the current Dutch weed.

MTV Generation Award 2018: Chris Pratt’s 9 Rules For Life

Chris Pratt was awarded the MTV Generation Award at the MTV Movie Awards June 18, 2018. He was presented the award by Bryce Dallas Howard, his most recent co-star in Jurassic Park, and Aubrey Plaza, his first co-star in Parks and Recreation. The duo went on to joke that Pratt has a propensity of playing the dimwitted but lovable guy with good intentions… but not always the best ideas.

Take a look at Chris Pratt’s acceptance speech where he broke down his 9 rules for life right here and watch the full video below!


1.

“Breathe. If you don’t, you will suffocate.”


2.

“You have a soul. Be careful with it.”


3.

“Don’t be a turd. If you are strong, be a protector. If you are smart, be a humble influencer. Strength and intelligence can be weapons, so do not wield them against the weak. That makes you a bully. Be bigger than that.”


4.

“When giving a dog medicine, put the medicine in a little piece of hamburger and they won’t even know they’re eating medicine.”


5.

“It doesn’t matter what it is. Earn it. A good deed. Reach out to someone in pain. Be of service. It feels good and it’s good for your soul.”


6.

“God is real. God loves you, God wants the best for you. Believe that, I do.”


7.

“If you have to poop at a party, but you’re embarrassed because you’re going to stink up the bathroom, just do what I do. Lock the door, sit down, get all of the pee out first. And then, once all the pee is done, poop, flush, boom! You minimize the amount of time that the poop’s touching the air. Because if you poop first, it takes you longer to pee and then you’re peeing on top of it, stirring up the poop particles, create a cloud, goes out, then everyone at the party will know that you pooped. Just trust me, it’s science.”


8.

“Learn to pray. It’s easy, and it is so good for your soul.”


9.

“Nobody is perfect. People will tell you that you are perfect just the way that you are, you are not! You are imperfect. You always will be, but there is a powerful force that designed you that way, and if you are willing to accept that, you will have grace. And grace is a gift. Like the freedom that we enjoy in this country, that grace was paid for with somebody else’s blood. Do not forget that. Don’t take that for granted.”

What Happened?

Kiyaunta Goodwin is a 14-year old kid who has the attention of many college football coaches. Goodwin has received nine verbal scholarship offers from Division One schools. Goodwin has received offers from Alabama, Florida State, Georgia, Wisconsin, LSU, Syracuse, Louisville, Kentucky, and Western Kentucky. He has also received much interest from Ohio State, Michigan, and other top schools in the country.

Goodwin tweeted out Sunday night that he had received a verbal scholarship offer from Alabama Head Coach, Nick Saban.

The day before he tweeted about the verbal offer he had received from Florida State.

Goodwin also posted another tweet to his account with a picture of him and NFL Hall of Fame lineman, Anthony Munoz. In the photo, you can truly see the size of Goodwin. He has not even entered high school yet and he is making an NFL Hall of Fame lineman look small. You truly get the feel for how big he actually is when seeing the two of them stand side-by-side for the photo.

According to many coaches, Goodwin has the potential to be the #1 ranked high school prospect in the class of 2022. Many of those coaches believe that he could go on to become a high-level NFL player as he already has the body size to play at that level.

Who Is Kiyuanta Goodwin?

Goodwin is 6’7″ and 370 pounds outsizing all of the opponents he has faced at this point in his life. His sheer size and athletic ability have drawn the attention of many college coaches. He works out with many other talented football players at Aspirations Gym, which is a football pipeline in South Louisville, producing some of the state’s best prospects. Goodwin is not only interested in football as he also loves robotics and would love to study engineering once he gets to college. Goodwin talked about how football would not define his life when he said, “Football is something I love doing, but it’s also something I want to use to get more out of life. I could be one of the first people in my family to graduate, I want to go to college and get a degree.”

With the ninth overall selection in the 2018 NBA Draft, the New York Knicks select? Those are the words that will come out of Adam Silver’s mouth when announcing who the Knicks are selecting with their lottery pick. You might be wondering who the Knicks are going to select with this pick as this draft class is very deep and has lots of talent. Let’s take a look at five potential prospects that the Knicks will target.


Trae Young PG/ Oklahoma University

The Knicks would love to see Trae Young fall into their lap at the #9 spot. Young lead the NCAA in scoring and assists averaging 27.4 points and 8.7 assists. He even had a game where he recorded 22 assists in the game, which tied an NCAA Division 1 record. Young is an excellent three-point shooter as he hit 3.7 threes per game. He was a consensus first-team All-American and helped lead his team to the NCAA Tournament. Young whose offensive game is one of the best in this draft class will struggle defensively to start out in the NBA. However, pairing him up with Knicks young guard, Frank Nkitilina can help alleviate some of the defensive pressure as Nkitilina is a very solid defender. Those two together paired with Kristaps Porzingis could make for a very bright future in the Big Apple.


Michael Porter Jr. F/Missouri

Michael Porter Jr. was voted as the Preseason ESPN National Freshman of the Year as he was the #1 high school prospect. However, two minutes into Porter Jr’s freshman campaign he sustained a back injury that would require him to have surgery and made him miss out on most of the season. If Porter Jr. were to fall to this spot, it would be because teams are worried of lingering injury issues from his back or the more recent reports that Porter Jr. had to postpone his Pro Day workout because of a hip issue. However, he would be worth the gamble because the reward of him being a healthy player is too hard for the Knicks to pass up. Porter’s size, skill, and scoring prowess make him a much-coveted prospect. He and Porzingis together would be a very scary duo for years to come.


Collin Sexton PG/Alabama

Collin Sexton would bring the aggressiveness and toughness that the Knicks need on their roster. Sexton is known for driving the lane, putting pressure on opposing defenders with his quick handles, and is a good off-the-dribble jump shooter. Sexton can score with the best of them, and his playmaking will only get better since he will be surrounded by better players than he was in college. Teams have concerns about his reckless style of play and on-court decision making. He likes to play a little out of control sometimes, but with a coach like David Fizdale at the helm, he can help Sexton play more under control. Sexton is a hard worker on the defensive end and has even drawn comparisons to Patrick Beverley. A backcourt consisting of Sexton and Nkitilina would give the Knicks two very good on-ball defenders to hound opposing teams guards.


Mikal Bridges G/F/ Villanova

Mikal Bridges would help fill a need for the Knicks as they could use someone who can defend multiple positions and play out on the wing. He can also stroke the ball from three-point range as he shot 43% from the perimeter during his junior season at Villanova helping his team win a National Championship. Last season he became just the second qualified NCAA player to average at least 2.5 made three-pointers, 1.5 steals, and 1.0 blocks per game since Shane Battier was the first to do it at Duke during the 2000-2001 season. The 6’7″ wing has a 7-foot wingspan that can cause issues for shooters as he is able to close out effectively. The Knicks drafting Bridges would add a much-needed wing player that can shoot the long ball and play solid defense. The Knicks could use a 3-and-D type of player after allowing 108 points per game last year, which was the ninth highest in the league.


Kevin Knox II F/Kentucky

Knox can shoot the ball from deep and has good size for his position on the wing. The Knicks lacked a true small forward who could put the ball on the floor and score for them. Knox would provide them with a scorer off the wing shooting 51% from two-point range and 34% from the perimeter. Knox averaged nearly 2 three-pointers per game during his time at Kentucky. He was also a 77% free throw shooter. These numbers indicate his future is bright to be an efficient offensive scorer in the league. However, some teams fear that he may have some defensive flaws at the next level from watching his game tape, but with his size, vertical, and length Knox could become a competent defender by being able to defend multiple positions at the NBA level if he puts the time and work in.
