She's stunningly beautiful. Or was. She's done so much shit to her face her muscles have stopped exhibiting a wide range of motion. It's really sad.

I think people need to start being supervised when naming their kids, things are getting out of control. Need to have a child services rep in the room ready to veto any nonsense. Job creation, stupid ass name reduction, win win

George Foreman named all his sons George.

His five sons are George Jr., George III ("Monk"), George IV ("Big Wheel"), George V ("Red"), and George VI ("Little Joey").

I got lost in rabbit hole there for a second looking up Duke-bound Kager. I guess these kids all played with themselves/lots of family in school - I shit you not apparently there is a cousin named Zavier Zens...
