Cassadee Pope Q&A
She was Listen! It’s Vetrano‘s first guest a few years ago; and now, Cassadee Pope, returns to the channel to take your questions. You submitted the questions you’ve been dying to ask the “Wasting All These Tears” singer on Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag #CassadeeListens. Then, our team –which consists of me and Bugsy, the long-haired Chihuahua– compiled them to prepare for our Memorial Day sit down with The Voice winner. We got to as many of the the questions as we could, and she promised to be back soon to take more. Didn’t see your question answered in the video?

Rise & Grindr: Sickly Domesticated
Nickname: The OG (Olympic Gymnast) Date: Third-ish How We Met: Ok Cupid! Rating: 8/10 When I left The OG a couple of days ago, I was flying high after a lovely, domesticated day of shopping and errands that ended with a kiss. An awkward kiss, but a kiss nevertheless. I waited a couple of days before agreeing to make plans again with the cutie, so as to not seem totally desperate and alone. My disastrous date with “Shark Week” was reignited when the fish-loving-lunatic texted me for a 2:30a.m. booty call early in the week. Pass. The unwanted, and ignored, request for sex made me realize that I was copping some serious feelings for the…

#AskAmanda: Suspicious Minds & Loving Yourself
Hello internet! My name is Amanda Valentine. I’m a fashion designer, wardrobe stylist and amateur astrologist. For as long as I can remember, I have also been a giver of advice. When I was in elementary school, I stood by a specific tree during recess and would dole out my view on pressing preadolescent issues: boys, fashion, what to get for lunch, who knows… (what were our problems back then?!). People knew where to find me each day and I reveled in providing a logical impartial view. I’m also a classic Gemini, which means I always see both sides to an issue and I love to communicate. From that tree at recess to the…
