Here's what happened. A few days ago, Ashley Graham, who became the first size 16 model to grace the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, posted a video to TikTok of her showing off what she believes to be the best parts of her body and dubbed it the "self-love challenge." Even if you're not a user of the social media platform, you'll probably know that people on TikTok enjoy a challenge more than anything, and now that thousands have responded to Graham's call to let everyone in on what they love about their own bodies, she's celebrating their posts on Instagram . Take a look!
Awww! It's clear that Ashley Graham was really touched by the number of people who not only took the "self-love challenge," but everyone who did it by using the audio from her original video to express all of the things that make their bodies strong, sexy, and important , as well as their favorite body part and what they would never change about their bodies. And, if you scroll through some of the responses that Graham re-posted, you can see that a wide variety of folks came through with some nice things to say about themselves, and that Graham appreciated all of it.
While there were a lot of responses which featured legs, boobs , butts, and arms among the body parts which got the spotlight (along with several men focusing on...exactly what you'd expect them to), there were a lot of other answers as well. Some people are very proud of their jiggly bellies, gray hair, hearts, brains, eyes, smiles and even their ears:
It's good to see so many folks embraced Ashley Graham's challenge. Pretty much everyone has received a lot of messages, both direct and indirect, about how we're supposed to look for one reason or another, and it can be very difficult to relax into however you look if family, supposed friends or society as a whole is saying you should be different and do everything in your power to change how you look.

H&N Records Releases Tribute To Disgraced CNN Analyst Jeffrey Toobin | 93.1FM WIBC
CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin REALLY likes election simulations – so much so, in fact, that it cost him his long-time job as a reporter at The New Yorker – but NOT CNN apparently.
Editor's Note: Who gets turned on by election simulations? Seriously, fellas, when you go to the fertility clinic to make sure all your little "swimmers" are performing their aquatic maneuvers properly, how many of you reach for the copy of Newsweek over the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue?
It appears as though CNN never officially released Toobin and he’s still under contract with the network. This discovery has prompted speculation that Toobin might be poised for a comeback!
In celebration of Jeffrey Toobin’s ability to survive his embarrassing ordeal, Hammer and Nigel Records are pleased to present: “Strokin’ in the Zoom Room!”
Raya: This is what you need to know about the exclusive dating app celebrities use | The
An ultra-exclusive dating app has found itself the subject of attention after a woman claimed that Ben Affleck sent her a video after she unmatched with him on the platform .
"Thinking of the time I matched with Ben Affleck on Raya and thought it was fake, so I unmatched him and he sent me a video on Instagram," Jay captioned the video, which sees a man who resembles Affleck asking her: "Nivine, why did you unmatch me? It's me."
While the authenticity of the video is not clear, the TikTok, which has been viewed more than 4.9m times, has prompted an interest in Raya, and what exactly it means to be a member of the exclusive platform.
Unlike dating apps such as Bumble or Tinder, membership to Raya isn't as simple as creating a profile - as it requires interested users to submit an application.
However, an application also doesn't guarantee acceptance, as according to the app, applicants are "assessed based on algorithmic values and input from hundreds of committee members spread throughout the world," with the website noting that application decisions can range anywhere from "a day to a few months".
As for what the app, which is reportedly used by celebrities, is looking for in an applicant, Raya says its multi-faceted application process ensures that every new member "makes our community more diverse and dynamic".
The dating platform is also extremely strict about the behaviour allowed on the app, with the website stating that Raya will remove members who do not follow our simple rules of "respect, trust and privacy".
"Furthermore, we reserve the right to suspend or remove any membership we no longer feel strengthens our community," the website adds.
Raya's application process begins with simple questions such as your name, your Instagram handle and the industry you work in.
Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes is seen with a baby bump for the first time | Daily Mail Online
Disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes has been pictured with her baby bump for the first time since her lawyers made the surprise announcement that she was pregnant two months ago.
The 37-year-old expectant mother appeared at the Robert F. Peckham Federal Building on Tuesday, when she attended a pre-trial federal court date, and flashed her growing belly for the first time since her lawyers revealed that she was expecting in March.
Holmes is married to hotel heir Billy Evans, 27, but has not confirmed he is the father of her child, and has shared little information about the pregnancy, other than the month of her due date.
For Tuesday's court appearance, the disgraced start-up founder wore a simple black dress, but kept her bump largely under wraps with a baggy grey cardigan.
The news of Holmes' pregnancy was first revealed by her legal team in March, when they are said to have 'blindsided' prosecutors by requesting a six-week delay for the start of her trial, citing her July due date as the reason. At the time, Holmes would have been five-months pregnant.
Appointment: The 37-year-old, who is due to stand trial for fraud in August, appeared at a federal court hearing in California on Tuesday, when she showed off her bump in a black dress
Keeping quiet: Holmes, who is married to hotel heir Billy Evans, 29, neglected to answer reporters' questions as she walked into the building while flanked by two lawyers
Back in the spotlight: Tuesday's appearance marked the first time in more than a year that Holmes, who has been charged with a dozen counts of fraud during the scandalous rise and fall of her blood-testing company Theranos, has been seen at court
