Here's what's happening out there, people:

• Earlier this week on Instagram, country musician Shania Twain shared a cheeky photo of her backside from her current "Rock This Country" tour (above). And, as can clearly be seen in the pic, Shania is keeping with her tradition of never really wearing pants on-stage anymore, and also never really looking like she's almost 50.

• Speaking of touring singers who barely wear pants while performing, Taylor Swift has been kicking butt and taking names at concerts across the nation — and she looks great doing it, too. Watch the video below to learn how you, too, can capture Swift's signature lips and cat-eyes, then for the full tutorial.

<p>• The trailer for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's new film <a href="http://entertainthis.usatoday.com/2015/07/15/tina-fey-amy-poehler-sisters-trailer-tonight-show/" target="_blank">&quot;Sisters&quot;</a> came out on Tuesday, and it looks just as funny and hilarious as you were hoping their next collaboration would be — at least until midway through, when Maya Rudolph shows up in a supporting role and you start wishing she was just another one of the <em>sisters</em>. </p> <p>• Disney is reportedly planning to produce a live-action prequel to &quot;Aladdin&quot; to focus specifically <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/aladdin-live-action-prequel-works-808895" target="_blank">on the origins of the Genie.</a> Casting is still a long way away, but we suspect that no actor in Hollywood will be able to live up to Robin Williams' old role. Especially now that Dom DeLuise is dead. (He would've been the exception.)</p> <p></p> <p>• In related news, Disney is <em>not</em> moving forward to a live-action &quot;Little Mermaid&quot; adaptation, but that didn't stop Paris Hilton from campaigning for the role with this <a href="https://instagram.com/p/5K_XrjqgKs/?taken-by=parishilton" target="_blank">crazy new Instagram post</a> anyway:</p> <blockquote> <div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf//42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB/lQPb79drWOyJVa/DAvg9B/rLB4cC+Nqgdz/TvBbBnr6GBReqn/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I/fZou/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"> </div> </div> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;"><a href="https://instagram.com/p/5K_XrjqgKs/" target="_blank">A photo posted by Paris Hilton (@parishilton)</a> on</p> Jul 15, 2015 at 2:22pm PDT</div> </blockquote> <p>• Johnny Depp's wife, actress Amber Heard, has <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/16/entertainment/australia-amber-heard-johnny-depp-dogs/" target="_blank">been charged with illegally importing their dogs Pistol and Boo</a> into Australia this past May. If guilty, Heard can be fined up to $102 Australian dollars, which is something like $75,000 American dollars, or face up to 10 years in an Australian prison, which is probably only like 5 or 6 in an American one.</p> <p></p> <p>• Caitlyn Jenner gave an <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/caitlyn-jenner-preaches-acceptance-emotional-espys-award-speech/story?id=32479971" target="_blank">inspirational ten-minute speech</a> on the plight of transgender people while accepting the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage at Wednesday evening's ESPY Awards. She also gave all the other ladies in attendance a real <em>run for their money</em> in a <a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-style/news/caitlyn-jenner-white-versace-dress-espys-2015-photos-2015157" target="_blank">white Versace gown.</a></p> <p>• Justin Bieber is the subject of August's issue of <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3162434/Justin-Bieber-shows-cupping-marks-poses-shirtless-insists-happily-single-Interview-magazine.html" target="_blank">Interview magazine,</a> wherein he posed for a photoshoot with what looks to be cupping marks all over his back (below). Either that, or some critic repeatedly beat him with a pillowcase full of glass ashtrays just prior to arriving at the shoot, which is also a distinct possibility.</p> <blockquote> <div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf//42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB/lQPb79drWOyJVa/DAvg9B/rLB4cC+Nqgdz/TvBbBnr6GBReqn/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I/fZou/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"> </div> </div> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;"><a href="https://instagram.com/p/5KHqwZlBsj/" target="_blank">A photo posted by INTERVIEW Magazine (@interviewmag)</a> on</p> Jul 15, 2015 at 6:15am PDT</div> </blockquote> <p>• On Wednesday morning, three armed men reportedly broke into Chris Brown's San Fernando Valley home and <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2015/07/15/chris-brown-home-invasion-robbery-hostage/" target="_blank">forced his aunt in a closet</a> while they robbed the place. The silver lining to this horrific incident? The robbers probably didn't manage to steal anything from that one closet. </p> <p>• The first trailer for <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/jennifer-lawrence-joy-trailer_55a664ede4b0896514cfcce2" target="_blank">David O. Russell's new biopic &quot;Joy&quot;</a> hit the web the other day, and in it, Jennifer Lawrence plays a Joy Mangano, the woman who invented that self-wringing mop you surely saw in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tghsiQO6_rE" target="_blank">an infomercial once.</a> It also stars Bradley Cooper, because apparently he's obligated to appear in every JLaw movie for the rest of time. </p> <p></p> <p>• The honorees at the upcoming 2015 Kennedy Center Honors <a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/676628/george-lucas-eagles-carole-king-and-more-to-be-honored-at-38th-annual-kennedy-center-honors" target="_blank">were announced on Wednesday,</a> and they include (among others) the Eagles, Cicely Tyson, Rita Moreno, and even &quot;Star Wars&quot; creator George Lucas, despite that whole Jar Jar Binks debacle.</p> <p>• And finally, at an after-party following a screening of Marvel's &quot;Ant-Man,&quot; actor Michael Douglas reportedly told a Vanity Fair columnist that <a href="http://pagesix.com/2015/07/15/michael-douglas-i-have-a-big-d-k/" target="_blank">he had a &quot;big d***&quot;</a> before laughing and disappearing into the crowd. In fairness, the columnist really set him up (he asked what Douglas would consider his best feature), so if Douglas had said anything else, we'd be a little disappointed. </p>
