Jason Momoa Known For Working Out And Being In Fantastic Shape

CELEBRITIES Jason Momoa got his start in the Baywatch spinoff Baywatch Hawaii, but his big break came when he won the role of Ronon Dex in the TV show Stargate Atlantis. He is known for working out and being in fantastic shape which we caught in shirtless glimpses of during his Baywatch days. It was his turn as Khal Drogo in the hit HBO show Game of Thrones that brought him into the mainstream consciousness and out of his clothes. During the early stages of the first season of Game of Thrones, Momoa’s Drogo is married to Daenerys Targaryen. During their honeymoon he takes her to bed and thrusts vigorously into her, giving us a nice shot of his rock hard body from the side. Later he walks into his tent fully nude and sits down.

TikTok Is The Latest Battleground – There’s A Long History Of Dances Being Pilfered For Profit

Jill Vasbinder, University of Maryland, Baltimore County In January 2020, 14-year-old Jalaiah Harmon created what would become one of the biggest viral dance sensations on TikTok. But few users knew that Harmon, who is Black, invented the dance, which she dubbed the Renegade – at least not until a month later, when The New York Times drew attention to her case. That’s because a TikTok user had copied the dance, and it was that TikToker’s rendition that went viral. Because Harmon didn’t get credit, she wasn’t able to reap the benefits of more views and followers, which, in turn, could have led to collaborations and sponsorships. Harmon is only the latest in a long list of women and people of color whose choreography and dance work have been pilfered for profit – a story that dates back ...

It Doesn’t Always Happen When Sources Are The Police – But Being Skeptical Of Sources Is A Journalist’s Job

The death of 13-year-old Adam Toledo might well have made international headlines on March 29, 2021 – the day he was shot and killed by a police officer – had the emerging narrative been different. Instead, early news reports of the incident relied on a police statement which said Toledo died in an “armed confrontation.” An image of a gun recovered at the scene was also released. During a bond hearing for the man who had been with Toledo when the chase began, prosecutors said a gun was in Toledo’s hand when police shot him dead. Body camera footage released a full two weeks later now casts doubt on the accuracy of that narrative. A short video clip shows a chase which ends with Toledo turning his body toward the officer, arms raised. There is no gun is his hands when the shot is fired. ...
