Let This Massive Mural Of Kanye West Making Out With Himself Make You Feel Better

Kanye West might fashion himself a modern-day Pablo Picasso but he's got some serious competition from Australian artist Scott Marsh. 


Marsh recently completed a 20-foot mural of the rapper making out with himself on the side of Zigi's Wine and Cheese Bar in Sydney. The painting was, of course, inspired by the famous photoshopped image of West-on-West loving that made the Internet rounds last year.


"No one can love Kanye quite like Kanye," Marsh wrote in a Facebook post debuting his artwork on Saturday. 




Isn't there something calming about how at peace Kanye looks with his hands firmly planted on his own ass? That's true love. 


Given the equally impressive three-story mural of Kim Kardashian that appeared in Melbourne last week, it seems like Australia is fully feeling the Kardashian-West fantasy. Maybe it's all just a ruse and this is how Kim and Kanye fight.


"No MY mural is bigger" -- Kim, probably. 


Or this could be some belated album promotion. The ninth track off his new album is titled "I Love Kanye," after all.

Not Enough Basketball? Play It on Facebook Messenger

As if basketball wasn’t already crushing productivity this week, now you can play it on Facebook Messenger.


The Next Web reported that Messenger users who type in the basketball emoji and send it to a friend can start a basketball game, in which basketballs appear at various locations on their screens, and they can swipe up to shoot those balls through the hoop.MessengerBasketball


The object of the game is to make the most consecutive baskets, according to The Next Web, which added that the backboard starts moving after 10 points, speeding up after 20.


Basketball is not the first game to be quietly added to Messenger, as a chess game was discovered last December.


Readers: Will you challenge any of your friends on Messenger to a one-on-one?

Marla Maples Says Donald Trump's Presidential Run Has Made Life 'Crazy'


Donald Trump's second ex-wife Marla Maples says life has gotten a little "crazy" since her ex announced he was running for president last summer. 


"It's been a crazy six months for me," the 52-year-old actress and TV host told Us Weekly this week while training to compete on "Dancing With the Stars." "I've had people constantly coming to me, wanting my opinion about the presidential race and I've maintained a lot of privacy. But now that I'm stepping out and [going to] be a part of 'Dancing With the Stars,' it's intensified even more."


Trump, the current GOP front runner, married Maples in 1993, after splitting from his first wife Ivana in the early '90s. Maples and Trump divorced in 1999 and are parents to daughter Tiffany, 22, who has joined her father on the campaign trail


Trump has been married to his third wife Melania for nearly 11 years


Earlier this month, Maples stopped by "The View" -- presumably to talk about "Dancing With The Stars" -- and got put on the hot seat about her marriage by host Joy Behar, who was a guest at the couple's 1993 wedding. 


(Story continues under the video.) 





"You were so in love with him, Marla, you were madly in love with him, I saw the headlines,” Behar declared, before bringing up one of Trump’s most notorious debate moments. “Was it love or his hands? Tell the truth.” 


“By the way, his hands are great,” Maples replied to some awkward audience laughs. “I don't understand all this talk, he has great hands. He is the father of my child, so, what can I say." 


Editor's note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liarrampant xenophoberacistmisogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims -- 1.6 billion members of an entire religion -- from entering the U.S.
