CNN Guest's Failed Backflip Attempt Goes Viral

CNN Guest's Failed Backflip Attempt Goes Viral

Buzz Feed3 days ago
A recent guest on CNN News Central tried to do a backflip during a live broadcast, and his awkward attempt is going mega-viral.
In the clip, Cruz went up...
And around...
And smacked the floor.
"That never happens," Cruz said as he knelt on the floor in disbelief.
"That, what you just saw there, is a brand new twist on America's favorite pastime," host John Berman said as the camera cut away.
The host is literally all of us.
One person said, "this is why the male backflipping epidemic needs to come to an end."
"can't explain but Benson Boone stopped him somehow," this person joked.
And another said, "1,000 times funnier and more interesting than a successful backflip. He should be very proud."
Cruz took to Instagram to laugh at himself afterwards, posting another angle with the caption: "The sound makes it 10x funnier. Yes, you have my permission to laugh. Yes, I'm all good. Some stitches, slightly damaged pride, and some unparalleled dad lore."
Don't try this at home, folks!

Jennifer Lopez shares entirely makeup free selfie to mark 56th birthday

Jennifer Lopez just turned 56 and celebrated her birthday right in the middle of her 'Up All Night' tour. And on top of slipping into a backless silver dress/partying with friends (while dancing to her new song 'Birthday,' naturally), JLo shared a bunch of photos to Instagram – including one without an ounce of makeup. If you just don't have it in you to scroll, here: In case you're wondering how JLo keeps her skin so glow-y, that would be her own brand, JLo Beauty. The singer confirmed that she does, in fact, use her products while answering fan questions, saying, "I've been diving into everything that you guys have been saying about JLo Beauty... Do you use this every day or just when the cameras are on? That's funny because I'm standing in my actual bathroom right now. No, I use it. I use it every day." She also responded to feedback that her skincare is too expensive, explaining, "Listen, I get it. Your skin is something that you have to show up with every single day. So, if there is a little bit of splurge in you, I would say do it on skincare, without a doubt." JLo then addressed scepticism about celebrity skincare brands in general, saying "Some of it isn't [worth the hype]," and noting that her brand is "luxury skincare that is clinically tested and trust me, I don't cut corners." On that note: Mehera Bonner is a celebrity and entertainment news writer who enjoys Bravo and Antiques Roadshow with equal enthusiasm, She was previously entertainment editor at Marie Claire and has covered pop culture for over a decade.
