Leonardo DiCaprio has pledged $ 7 million from his foundation to marine conservation efforts over the next two years, he announced at the State Department “Our Ocean” conference on Tuesday.

The actor was introduced by Secretary of State John Kerry at the event, following a video message from President Obama.

Obama told the conference he would use his executive authority to “protect some of our nation’s most precious marine landscapes” and warned that the United States could not afford to let pollution and overfishing destroy the ocean’s ecosystem.

During his remarks, DiCaprio said his foundation would support countries that are expanding marine reserves, as well as other initiatives.

“Before I wanted to become an actor, I dreamt of becoming a marine biologist,” said the star, who talked about witnessing ocean devastation “firsthand” during his travels around the globe.

DiCaprio told attendees, “What we need is sustained activism and courageous political leadership. We cannot afford to be bystanders in this pre-apocalyptic scenario.”

He declared, “This isn’t simply an exercise in wildlife conservation. If we don’t do something to save the ocean now, it won’t be just the sharks and the dolphins that suffer. It will be our children and our grandchildren.”

Brian Williams “rapped” the Sir Mix-a-Lot song “Baby Got Back” on Monday’s “Tonight Show,” thanks to the creative editing by Jimmy Fallon’s staff.

The lyrics, like “I like big butts and I cannot lie,” were spliced together from many different “NBC Nightly News” broadcasts anchored by the often serious Williams.

The “Tonight Show” host has been doing this to him for years. Williams’ last “performance” on the show was Snoop Dogg’s “Gin and Juice.”

Transfer Balls: Arsenal Get Three Manchester United Players For Thomas Vermaelen

TRANSFER Balls: Having reported that Arsenal ‘lifer’ Thomas Vermaelen has committed his future to the Gunners and agreed to join Manchester United, the media looks for a new angle:

The Daily Mirror reports:

Arsene Wenger could look for a part-exchange deal with Manchester United over Thomas Vermaelen, writes John Cross.

Could.

The Arsenal boss has been keeping tabs on Tom Cleverley and also has an interest in Chris Smalling.

This guessology would be passable were it not for the fact that at the top of the story, the Mirror’s headline ponders:

Arsenal transfer rumours: Nani wanted as parted of Thomas Vermaelen swap deal?

So. Just three United players, then, that the cagey Wenger wants at Arsenal. Maybe.

The Guardian continues the Mirror’s schtick of writing a story around a question by reporting:

Football transfer rumours: Arsenal in for Tom Cleverley and Chris Smalling?

The simple rule is never to click on a headline with a question in it. We’ll do it for you. Or just reply “no”.

Rob Bleaney writes below the headline:

After Manchester United opened talks with Thomas Vermaelen about a £10m move to Old Trafford, Arsène Wenger wants to return the favour and take some dead wood off Louis van Gaal’s hands by moving for Tom Cleverley and Chris Smalling.

You might recall that the Telegraph says Arsenal club captain Thomas Vermaelen has agreed a deal to join Manchester United this summer. Bleaney goes on:

Quite why Wenger would desire a small, tricky playmaker such as Cleverley having passed up the opportunity to sign Cesc Fábregas because he is so well stocked in that area is anyone’s guess, but Wenger knows.

Is it because Cleverly is English, cheaper, younger and hungrier?

A bid for Smalling to cover for the losses of Sagna and Vermaelen makes more sense, apart from the fact the former Fulham man is rubbish both at right-back and in the centre of defence.

Shhh! Wenger might be listening. And, yes, that is the Wenger who was the subject of the April 2013 Daily Mail statement:

We won’t sell any more players to United after RVP, insists Arsenal boss Wenger

Such are the facts…

 

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin to Reconcile?

GWYNETH Paltrow and Chris Martin might have changed their minds.

The pair — who famously announced their decision to “consciously uncouple” on Paltrow’s infamous GOOP website in March — are putting the breaks on divorce plans, according to a British tabloid report.

“Chris still lives with her, they are amazingly lovey-dovey together and she still wears her wedding ring,” a source said.

“They may have consciously uncoupled a few months ago – but they seem to be recoupling now. No one will be surprised if they get back together.

“It’s true they had problems but in the weirdest way this ‘conscious uncoupling’ situation has relieved the pressure on them.”

The parents of daughter Apple, 10, and son Moses, 8, dined in the Bahamas together just days after the split, shared a romantic meal at  Santa Monica eatery il Ristorante de Giorgio Baldi in May, and even celebrated Mother’s Day together at home.

Bachelorette Recap: Andi Cuts Three Guys After Drama-Filled Group Date

(ABC)

Andi Dorfman took her search for love and her 11 remaining suitors across the Atlantic Ocean to Marseille, France in the latest episode of “The Bachelorette.”

For her first 1-on-1 date, Dorfman picked Josh M.

Before meeting the former pro baseball player, she chatted with Chris Harrison at an outdoor cafe, where she confessed to falling for multiple guys.

The district attorney and Josh M. enjoyed a romantic luxury sailboat ride, and their chemistry was undeniable.

Dorfman admitted that she was concerned that her attraction to the athlete was purely physical, like her previous relationship with former “Bachelor” Juan Pablo Galavis.

Back at the house, JJ told Marquel that Andrew allegedly referred to him as “blackie.” Marquel got emotional as he decided whether or not he would confront Andrew for his hurtful racist comment.

For the second half of her date with Josh M., Dorfman voiced her fears about falling for the former ballplayer.

Josh M. explained that one of his relationships ended because her friends constantly insinuated that he was cheating on her because he was an athlete. He said his ex actually ended up cheating on him out of fear, which is why he now has trust issues and trouble opening up.

The two kissed, and Dorfman gave him a rose before she surprised him with a private Ben Fields concert.

On her group date, the “Bachelorette” took her guys to learn the art of mime. The contestants donned striped shirts, suspenders, and black hats when they took their routine to the streets of Marseille.

Although the crowd was less than enthusiastic about their performance, JJ pulled out all the stops when he reenacted his first date with Dorfman.

While most of the guys made the best of the date, Nick V. looked noticeably miserable, which bothered Dorfman.

Later, JJ stole some alone time with Dorfman by taking her on a Ferris wheel ride. While they enjoyed the scenic views, Cody called out Nick V. for being arrogant and thinking he was the “front-runner.” Cody then got in Nick V.’s  face because he had previously mocked him for being thankful for his experience with Dorfman.

Dorfman pulled Chris aside to figure out what was going on, and was surprised to learn that some of the guys also had a problem with Nick. V.

When she confronted Nick V., he took responsibility for making fun of Cody. Despite her reservations about being “oblivious” to who Nick really is, he won her over with a sweet poem, and they kissed.

Dorfman also had a make-out session with Marcus after he confessed he was falling in love with her.

Marquel finally confronted Andrew about his racial slur, which he adamantly denied, saying the accusation was “complete bullsh*t.”

Marquel remained calm the entire time and accepted what Andrew said. Whether or not he actually said it, Marquel said he wasn’t going to lose sleep over it.

Andrew then went directly to Dorfman with Marquel’s confrontation, although he never stated what he was exactly accused of saying.

Despite all the drama, Dorfman gave JJ a rose at the end of the night, which upset Nick V., who was looking for reassurance.

Brian joined Dorfman on her next 1-on-1 date, and they enjoyed a private screening of Disney’s The Hundred Foot Journey.

The movie inspired Dorfman to make a romantic dinner. While shopping for food, they sampled sea urchin and picked up frog legs for a French-inspired meal.

Everything was perfect, except for the fact that Brian can’t cook, and he was clearly uncomfortable. Dorfman was disappointed by how distant and timid he was.

Dorfman wished the old Brian, who once kissed her on a basketball court, would come back, as she questioned their future together.

If things couldn’t get any worse, the food tasted awful, and they decided to go out to eat.

Brian explained why he was being so shy, and she encouraged him to kiss her whenever he felt like it.

He took what she said seriously. After she gave him a rose, they spent the rest of the night in a lip lock.

Dorfman sat down with Harrison before the rose ceremony and shocked the host by asking him to cancel the cocktail party. She said she was going with her gut extinct and she wanted to send three guys home.

At the end of the night, Dorfman eliminated Marquel, Andrew, and Patrick.

Andrew took off with the feeling that he was bullied. Patrick was dumfounded that he was sent home, and Marquel left stoically before crying about how the experience reminded him of how much wants to find love.
