Tony Vlachos met his match in Sandra Diaz-Twine. An alliance between the two Survivor champs quickly crumbled and his torch was swiftly snuffed when Sandra rallied the tribe against him on Survivor: Game Changers. We talked with Vlachos about his brief time on Season 34, and he humbly admitted that his Survivor success is likely limited to what he accomplished in winning Survivor: Cagayan. He also revealed one of the goofiest unseen strategies he planned to unleash had he made it deeper in the game.

SheKnows: It was so entertaining watching the feud brewing between you and Sandra. Did we see everything that happened, or was there more to the bad blood?

Tony Vlachos: We had formed an alliance. It was me, her, Caleb, Malcolm and Aubry. There was five of us. Everything was great. I was happy. She was happy. Then it came down to one night when I was working on my spy bunker. I saw her and Troyzan walking off into the woods. I snuck down on the beach to eavesdrop when I heard them say my name. At that point, I was wondering why they would sneak out of camp at 4 o'clock in the morning to talk about me. I came up to them and said, "What are you guys talking about?" They started telling me lies about the tide and something about crates being too close to the fire. I looked at Sandra and I was giggling because I didn't believe the nonsense she was telling me. From that moment on, I couldn't trust Sandra because she was talking to Troyzan, who was not part of our five. She also threw my name out at 4 o'clock in the morning. From that point on, I was against her and she was against me. In the end, she got the upper hand and she got me.

SK: When you went into that Tribal Council, did you know that the votes were about to fall against you?

TV: I was 99 percent sure it was me. When we lost the challenge, we were all talking and Aubry was the only one not there. Obviously, it was easy for everybody to pick Aubry. "Tony, vote for Aubry. We're voting for Aubry. Let's get her out. She's a threat." OK. Cool. Sounds good. So then I go to Aubry and ask her what's going on and why she's not chatting with anybody. She's like, "I'm just hanging out." So I asked her who they told her to vote against, and she was drawing blanks. That's when I knew there was something deeper to this. She was like, "Tony, I'm just gonna let fate take it's course." That's when I started having some suspicion that it might be me. I tried talking to Troyzan. He tells me he's having a Zen moment an hour before Tribal Council. I go to Jeff [Varner] and ask if we can talk. He gives me a thumbs up and starts walking away from me winking his eye. He said, "Tony, we're all good. Everything is all good, Tony. Let's just go with the plan." I knew this was gonna be bad for me. I went to Caleb and told him I knew Sandra was throwing my name around, but asked him to please listen to me and make a big move to flip on Sandra. He had a blank look on his face and didn't really say anything. I was like, dang, she turned this guy too. Same thing with Malcolm. When I asked him to do something about Sandra, he told me the vote was Aubry and to stop worrying. That was it. I knew it was over for me.

SK: When your torch was snuffed and you left the game, Sandra was very vocal in taunting you. How did you take that?

TV: In the heat of the moment, you get excited. When you have that victory like I did in Cagayan [Season 28] when Sarah was voted out at the merge, I was clapping my hands and jumping with joy. It's nothing personal. I guess it's just pure emotion. She got the upper hand and she got the best of me. That was her way of celebrating by making snarky remarks. I don't know what I would've said had I got the best of her and she got voted out. I probably would've been jumping up and saying stuff myself.

SK: As two notorious winners, it was obvious you and Sandra had the biggest targets. Did you honestly believe that you had a shot at winning again?

TV: When I said yes to going back to the game, I really thought I could win again or else I would've never done it. When I got out there pregame and I saw everybody giving me a fake smile, I could read right through them. They were already gunning for me. In my pregame interviews, I realized I was the biggest target. Sure enough, that was the case. Then, when I get to camp, everybody was so friendly and open. I was just being me. I was running around, like, being a clown, and they joked me off as just being a goofball. "That's Tony being Tony. Let him be. Let him run around wild like a maniac." After the first Tribal, I was thinking something solid could happen. That's when we formed the alliance of five people with me, Malcolm, Aubry, Caleb and Sandra. At that point, I was golden. I was feeling like we were on top of the world at that point.

SK: You had plans this season to take your infamous spy shack to a different level by digging a spy bunker where you could hide near the water well and listen to conversations. After looking at what you were trying to do, it didn't seem like your spy bunker was ever going to be successful.

TV: [Laughs] Let me tell you, that thing was gonna be 100 percent successful. It was great. When we first got there, I already had intentions of doing an underground bunker. When I found the water well, I started grabbing a bunch of branches and broken tree trunks to make a pile of debris. I wanted to get everybody's eyes used to seeing that there when they'd get water. So later in the game when I'm covering myself in that stuff, it wouldn't look like it was out of place. Then I started digging a hole, and I managed to get it deep enough to where I could put my whole body in there and cover myself with debris. They would've seen nothing! I could've breathed perfectly because the branches would be covering my face. You would not see anything, and I would've been able to hear everything that was said at that water well. It would've worked 100 percent, and it would've been perfect.

More: Ciera Eastin Says She Originally Said No to Playing Survivor Again

SK: I also heard you suggest using clones somehow? Please explain what this would have involved.

TV: That was for deeper in the game. I was planning on having rocks and try to prove my loyalty to people by telling them, "Hold on to my family. These are my rocks. They're sacred to me. They're sentimental to me. You hold on to them and I'm guaranteeing you that you'll be here tomorrow. You won't go home tonight." As soon as I'd give them the rocks, my plan was to make them feel at ease. They would think, "Maybe he's legit with these rocks because I see him kissing them every night and kissing them every morning." My original rocks, I would be kissing because they're my family. The clones, though, I would've given them up like nothing. They mean nothing to me [laughs.] Just rocks.

SK: Before the game began, was there anybody you were hoping to align with?

TV: The only person I would say would be Sarah. She's the only person I have a connection with outside the game of Survivor. We talk on the phone here or there. She talks about her family, and I talk about mine. We played together, and I guess that's why it would be only her. For everybody else, I only watched them on TV. I never talked to them. I never played with them. I had never seen them. I never went to any events to socialize with them.

SK: Under this season's title of Game Changers, which contestants do you think don't deserve that designation?

TV: That's a tough question. Like Jeff [Probst] keeps emphasizing, it has nothing to do with making big moves. It has everything to do with wanting to make moves and playing the game. It depends on how you want to break down the term. If it's just big moves, there's a lot of people that didn't make big moves. It's a hard question to answer. Only production knows because they hand-selected all these players. Just like I said in my pregame interviews, I'm looking at Hali, the tall Sierra, Troyzan and Jeff Varner and I couldn't remember them doing anything grand. But at the same time, they were selected for a reason.

SK: It was clear everybody was afraid of letting you get deep in the game because they had seen how strong you can play. Do you think maybe you started playing too hard on Day 1?

TV: No, actually. I started off running around, and it worked out to my favor. They felt at ease. It wasn't me sneaking away talking to people. It was just me being a goofball. I made them all at ease and they put their guard down with me a little bit. They didn't see me as the threat they saw on Cagayan where all I did was strategize. They saw me as funny, cool and a jokester. It worked! You saw I wasn't the first one gone. If they felt threatened by me initially running around looking for Idols, they would've got rid of me first. They really did see me as Tony just being Tony. The downfall was me hearing my name from Sandra and Troyzan. I confronted them and everything spiraled out of control.

SK: Would you ever go back to play again?

TV: At this very second, this very moment, I would say no. I think I'm done. I think I was a one-hit wonder in Cagayan, where all my stars aligned. I think all the luck was there for me. Luck has everything to do with it. I had a lot of good luck in Cagayan, and I had one back luck moment this season by hearing Troyzan and Sandra mentioning my name. That was it. That was my demise right there.

On most sex toys, cleaning directions are located directly on the packaging. So, as much as you want to throw the cardboard or plastic exterior away in a rabid scurry toward the prized possession, save it for some extra knowledge on how to nurture the longevity of your invested toy. Most cleaning directions are pretty basic: soap and water. But not every sex toy is cleaned the same way because they aren’t made the same way. For instance, the material a toy is made from, as well as whether or not it is motorized, plays a role in how to clean it.

Before you start going at it, let’s look at why cleaning your collection is more important than you think. STIs and general hygiene are the two main concerns, but keeping them in tip-top shape is another reason to wipe that sucker down after insertion or playtime.

More: Sex tips and toys for when you're pregnant and horny as hell

Ah, STIs. They aren’t just limited to intercourse or oral; they do in fact thrive on toys, especially when used with a partner. Not cleaning the material thoroughly afterward can result in bacterial or yeast infections — even HPV was shown to have been passed almost immediately.

Seventy-nine million Americans are infected with HPV, which can lead to cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina and anus. Moreover, gonorrhea, chlamydia and various bacterial infections (think serious itching) can be transferred through shared toys. Remember to get tested often, between partners and during, since symptoms may not be visible or obvious.

Cleaning your toy is also just a good idea for general hygiene. Just like peeing after sex is a good idea, so is cleaning your toy. Make it a habit and don’t fall asleep right after the deed is done. You need to treat your body with the respect and love it deserves, treat your toy the same way. Also, don’t cross-contaminate. Your anal plug shouldn’t be going anywhere near your vagina. Keep things separate for a happy ending.

How do you clean your sex toy exactly? As I said above, look at the directions before handling it. But, here are a few quick tips if you aren’t 100 percent sure.

• Motorized and silicone, glass, stainless steel or wood: soap and a damp cloth.
• Not motorized and silicone, Pyrex, stainless steel or stone: place it in boiling water for 10 minutes or place it in the dishwasher without soap.
• Hard plastic, elastomer, jelly rubber: these materials store bacteria, so using a condom is highly recommended. Just a tip: Make sure it’s non-lubricated because silicone lube and silicone toys are a no-no. The result is sticky and messy as silicone bonds to silicone. Read more about what condoms to use with what material here.

Aftercare includes drying off your toy and placing it in a silk bag or special box to keep it away from outside bacteria. If you choose to store your toys in a box all together, remember to keep them separated by material. Latex, silicone and rubber can cause toys to become misshapen.

Moreover, sex toy cleaners exist, and at a shop, representatives typically advise customers to purchase a cleaner as an addition. Remember to remove the batteries, spray the cleaner directly onto the toy and rinse with warm water.

How often should you be cleaning your toys? After every single use. You can’t skirt around this and make it a once a week thing. And there isn’t really a “how-to” section that answers this question like we have above. It’s just necessary. Make it a habit. Get it done.

More: The best sex toys for beginners that will make you want hundreds more

To take care of your body and also the longevity of your toys, it only takes a few moments to ensure your toy will last through your next playtime. I know it isn’t incredibly sexy to jump out of bed and clean, but hey, in the long run, it matters. It doesn’t have to be 30 seconds after a climax, but before your next use, you'd better be cleaning that thing. It’s a deed that must be done, and you’re the only one who can do it.

Before we begin this article, I should disclose two things;

First, I am a total Jason Momoa fangirl

Although my own tastes in men tend to skew toward lean and lanky, I've been totally bewitched by this glorious beast of a man since I first set eyes on him in Game of Thrones. His oversized stature (which I don't usually like) and the long flowing hair (which would usually be a huge turnoff) and even the somewhat gruff and dangerous exterior (which, in the past, has typically inspired a huge eye roll) – I'm into it. I'm into all of it and I love all of it and I love him.

More: 5 Things Jason Momoa Needs More Than These Bodyguards

Jason Momoa, I love you.

I'm thirty-three years old, far too old for this shit. It's embarrassing, but here we are. I admit it.

Now onto my second disclosure.

I am pro-nudity

I won't be taking up residence in a nudist colony anytime soon, but I feel fine without clothes. While I don't walk around in the buff all the time, my four-year-old daughter does see me naked (getting dressed and undressed, heading to and from the shower, etc.) and I think that this is important.

I want her to be comfortable in her own body and that means showing her that I'm comfortable in my own.

Seeing me naked also allows her to ask questions about my body and sets the stage for honest, open communication about the way her body will change in the future.

So, all this is to say that I am not a prudish parent. I have no problem with being naked or talking about bodies or explaining natural processes in a matter of fact way, without shame or judgment.

More: Should Your Kids See You Naked?

Now, at this point you may be asking, how on earth do these two disclosures relate to one another? Where's the overlap in this wildly unrelated Venn diagram?

The answer is this picture: 

That's Momoa's daughter with Lisa Bonet, 9-year-old Lola, posing beside Red Hot Chili Pepper guitarist Flea.

In the caption, Momoa writes, "The one the only Legend FLEA. And My baby girl. Fan boy fucking lost my shit. Tried to keep it together. Didn't happen but I got this shot. Mahalo dan weiss and Peter. GOT perks. DROGO perks...worth dying for"

And while some Momoa followers joined him in expressing excitement about meeting a music legend, others took issue with what Flea was wearing – or wasn't wearing – and lost their damn minds .

More: Jason Momoa as Aquaman is Overwhelmingly Hot

"Is he wearing pants?" asked one Instagram user. Another demanded angrily, "I'd like to understand why, as a father, did you post such picture. Flea or not Flea, is still a naked adult next to your daughter. Is it normal for you? Is it a common practice in your family? Disappointed!"

I've been thinking about this all morning and I have several thoughts.

Calm the fuck down, armchair critics

I mean, her terrifyingly huge dad is like two feet away from her and he posted the picture on his public Instagram account. If something sketchy was happening, Momoa is either negligent, stupid or both.

It might be my inner fangirl speaking (hence the first disclosure above) but I don't believe that Momoa matches either one of those descriptions. On the contrary, by all accounts Momoa is a devoted and loving father.

Flea is clearly wearing underwear

After intensely scrutinizing this picture for far too long, I've come to the conclusion that Flea is very clearly wearing black briefs. This might still be weird if it was your kid's fourth-grade teacher or next-door neighbor, but this is Flea. He's a rock-star known for his minimalist wardrobe choices - often performing in underwear or just a charmingly named "cock sock".

There's always that one European dude at the pool strutting around in a speedo - is this really any different?

Would this be happening if it was a woman?

If Lola was posing beside a woman in her underwear, would the public be losing their mind in the same way?

We seem to have developed a deep-seated suspicion of men around children and I think it's gone way too far. Calling the police on men sitting alone in parks because we suspect (without any reason) that they may be pedophiles, edging out male babysitters and teachers, and imbuing every male-child interaction with suspicion – it's too much.

I understand the impulse. It's true that most abusers tend to be male and by acting this way we seek to keep our children (and, apparently the children of celebrities) safe. But we also do considerable harm to our children by painting all men as potential predators. Doing so prevents the development of warm, respectful and appropriate relationships with men and these are important, too.

She does not look the least bit uncomfortable

Look at her face. Does she seem weirded out? On the contrary, Lola looks like she's having the time of her life. Even at 9 years old you have an innate sense of whether things feel OK or not. Lola's body language just doesn't fit with the suggestion that she's uncomfortable, or views Flea's attire as inappropriate.

Bottom line, Momoa is comfortable with the situation, Lola is comfortable with the situation, Flea is comfortable with the situation and the only ones losing their minds are strangers on the Internet.

Let's move on, shall we?

Twitter is going nuts over a BBC World News interview gone wrong. Professor Robert E. Kelly was saying something or other about South Korea via Skype when his bespectacled daughter crashed his international politics party — followed by her baby sibling in a 1970s-style rolling walker (seriously, who still uses those?).

Twitter loves this video. People think it's hilarious. And I'm not gonna lie: The Twitter responses are pretty damn funny.

But Robert E. Kelly was not amused. And you know what? Neither was I — at least not by him. I hate this guy's response to what could have been a sweet moment. Instead, he shoves — for real, actually shoves — his little daughter without so much as looking at her or addressing her. Not sure who the woman is who bolts into the room to retrieve the children (wife? nanny?) but her oh-shit panic was palpable.

More: Parenting gaffes our parents made all the time

Yeah, I know. The guy was doing a BBC interview and was trying to maintain composure, you say. He's a big cheese with a big desk and a big door that apparently has no lock. He's important, people, and was trying to keep a stiff upper lip. And the GIF of his daughter busting into the room is, admittedly, priceless.

It's your own damn fault if your home office doesn't have a lock. And I swear to God, Robert E. Kelley, if you divorce your wife/fire the nanny, I will gate-crash all the rest of your Skype interviews with flaming torches. Install a lock. If that was your wife, dude, she needs a hug and a break. If that was your nanny, give the woman a raise (because she looks scared to death and I'm worried about her).

How did Professor Kelly react to the video being shared on Twitter by BBC?

“What would that mean, please? Re-broadcasting it on BBC TV, or just here on Twitter? Is it this kind of thing that goes ‘viral’ and gets weird?”

YES, ROBERT. SHIT JUST GOT WEIRD FOR YOU. EMBRACE THE WEIRD. You clearly need more weird in your life. Or pay attention to the weird you already have. Because this, my friend, is glorious.

If we've learned anything from Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth's years long rollercoaster of a relationship, it's that they're going to do everything their own way. The rest of us can just sit back and speculate.

And boy, are we speculating. Cyrus' dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, posted a photo on Twitter that's sparking some ~theories~ about Cyrus and Hemsworth, because in the photo, she's wearing a white top.

"I'm so happy...you are happy @MileyCyrus," Billy Ray wrote, alongside the pic of Miley, smiling giddily, in white. It's at least a white shirt. It may even be a white dress. We really can't tell, because the photo only shows her from the shoulders up. Regardless, basically all of Twitter is assuming it's a wedding dress and that Cyrus and Hemsworth got secretly married.

More: It's impossible not to smile at Liam Hemsworth & Miley Cyrus' Instagram video

Hey, it's possible that Cyrus and Hemsworth had a secret wedding. They were engaged in 2012 before they broke up in 2013, and when they got back together in 2015, they kept that a secret for a while. They've been much more private about their romance this time around, but rumors have still been flying that they've been trying to compromise on wedding details — reports say Cyrus wants something small and intimate, while Hemsworth wants a big wedding with tons of friends and family. Maybe they did just say, "Screw it," and tied the knot.

Or maybe Cyrus just wore white one time.

Could go either way.

Ever since the O.J. Simpson trial pre-empted the soaps back in the mid-90s, the shows have struggled to gain traction in the ratings. Now with several high-profile exits on the shows and a daily real-life soap opera capturing TV viewers’ attention, it’s a rough road ahead for all four daytime series.

More: Sean Spicer Could Have A Career in Television After His Run As Press Secretary

Last week, Arianne Zucker of Days of Our Lives was the first to announce her departure. She decided not to renew her contract, which ends in late April.

“Two years ago, I was contemplating making the shift,” Zucker said to Soap Opera Digest. “I know there are a thousand girls who would take my job in a second, for me, it is my time to go.”

Her exit may have been compounded by the attention drawn to Zucker last fall when an old Access Hollywood video was released during the presidential campaign. She became an unknowing victim of sexual harassment coerced by Billy Bush and Donald Trump.

The second major exit was announced on Wednesday by Daytime Confidential that veteran General Hospital star Jane Eliott would not be renewing her contract. In April 2016, she spoke to TV Insider about her desire to retire.

“It will be very hard to leave GH. There are people in that building who have been a part of my life for 38 years and I will miss them dearly,” she said. “But I want to keep growing, learning new things, living in new places, in order to expand my mind.”

With Eliot and Zucker departing, it puts a major black cloud on daytime TV since Trump administration is playing out many dramatic scenarios in real life. Can soaps even compete with Spicer’s theatrical press conferences from the White House every day?

The climate for daytime is felt across the board. Former Bold and the Beautiful star Susan Flannery told TV Insider recently that she would never return to daytime.

"I have no desire to go back to daytime,” she explained. “In soaps, we’re in there giving it a thousand percent, because that’s how we are as professional actors, but with all the monetary constraints there is no polish. If you’re two beats off in a scene and you need to do it over again, there is simply no time. You have to settle for less than your best. To that I say, where is the art?”

For fans, there is a huge sense of loss because some of their favorite faces are no longer in their living rooms each day. The shows lose a sense of familiarity.

There is no magic elixir that will fix daytime television. It’s up to the producers and writers to create strong storylines that will keep the fans coming back. Otherwise, the drama in Washington, D.C. is going to take over.

HGTV's Fixer Upper isn't just a show — it's a way of life. It's about serene country living, harmonious interior design and a shit-ton of shiplap. Can you cover a refrigerator in shiplap? What about a truck or a small child? If anyone can do it, we're guessing Fixer Upper star and home hacker extraordinaire Joanna Gaines can. But until then, we can sate our country home decor cravings by indulging in a few items from Gaines' new Pier 1 collection.

More: 6 things to consider when choosing a new paint color for your room

Gaines, who runs a home remodeling and design business called Magnolia Home with her husband Chip, has teamed up with Pier 1 to release a line of pillows and rugs that are perfect for your modern-rustic home. Joanna Gaines partnered with Loloi to design the more than 150 pillows and rugs (side note — Loloi's collaboration with Jungalow designer Justina Blakeney is also unbelievably gorgeous). The Pier 1-Magnolia Home collection features woven wool-blend pillows with some fun textural elements in a variety of colorways, from muted peaches and pinks to high-contrast black and white designs.

While the pillows are pretty enough, it's the rugs that really caught my eye. The collection is stunning, ranging from a simple white and blue stripe design to an elaborate shabby-chic floral number. But my personal favorites are actually a little different and more modern than the style I usually associate with Gaines — a super-saturated turquoise rug that I want to lay down over every square inch of my apartment and a modern black and white rug that's a statement-making new neutral. Ogle them below.

A shiplap-heavy home needs a little color, and these pieces will definitely liven things up. Even though some of the colors are of the rustic-neutral, muted variety, they'll add a soft brightness to any room. If you want to add that Fixer Upper look to your home (without having to move to Waco, Texas), you can find the new line in Pier1 stores on April 17 or check them out online now.

If you're engaged (or recently tied the knot), there's a pretty good chance your big day involved dropping an exorbitant amount of cash. Who the hell has enough money left over after throwing a wedding to actually go on a trip? While it may seem like you're destined to camp out in your own backyard and call it a day, there are actually some gorgeous — and relatively cheap — honeymoon destinations that you can probably eke out enough cash to visit.

These top honeymoon destinations are perfect for the couple on a budget. They offer many affordable yet luxe hotels with great dining options and attractions that won't deplete your savings — so you don't have to skip that much-deserved post-wedding week off.

1. Oahu, Hawaii

Hawaii, despite being in the U.S., is one of the most expensive places to travel. However, unlike Maui or Kauai, Oahu offer the same gorgeous views for far less money. If you two are adventure seekers, Oahu is your place.

This tropical paradise offers amazing attractions that cost nothing or next to nothing to see, like Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head crater and the Banzai Pipeline surf break. If you're more into the city lifestyle with a tropical edge, you'll want to hit up Honolulu, the Hawaiian capital, located on the southern tip of Oahu. Honolulu has a hefty hotel stock, which means the odds of you finding one for a reasonable price are much higher. If you're a foodie, you'll love Honolulu's affordable farmers' market on Saturday and the cozy restaurants in the Kapahulu neighborhood. If you're staying in Honolulu, you can snag a room at the swanky four-star Hawaii Prince hotel for a reasonable price, and check out the three-star Wakiki Gateway hotel, which is even less.

Up next: Charleston, South Carolina

2. Charleston, South Carolina

If you're in the mood for a beach, historical tours and amazing food, but don't want to leave the country (or fly the eight plus hours to Hawaii), check out Charleston, South Carolina. This beautiful and historic city is made for romance and offers amazing attractions and cheap food.

In addition to plenty of nearby free beaches, like Folly, Isle of Palms and Kiawah Island, Charleston also has other free sights, right in the city. The Charleston City Market, one of the oldest in the country, is open daily and offers hundreds of handmade items from local vendors. You also can visit Battery Park, which offers breathtaking views of the ocean as well as many beautiful trees and historic homes.

For an authentic taste of Charleston, hit up the Charleston Cafe, located right outside the city in Mt. Pleasant. Here you can find Southern favorites, like fried green tomatoes and grits, all day for an affordable price. Stay at the Hampton Inn in the historic district (on Meeting Street) to be within walking distance of all the sites, food and shopping.

Up next: Montenegro

3. Montenegro

Don't let the misconception that European honeymoons are extravagant or overly expensive stop you from exploring Europe. When traveling in abroad, avoid the high tourist spots, like Venice, Rome and Paris as these places are typically more expensive to stay, eat and play in. Instead, why not visit the Montenegro?

In the quaint city of Ulcinj you'll find Long Beach, a beautiful serene stretch of beach that is said to have medicinal qualities. You can also take a day trip to Lake Skadar National Park, which is a stunning park nestled among mountains and fresh water. On your way back to town, stop along the fields of olive vines and visit Cetinje, which is home to two magnificent monasteries. Instead of cabs or expensive shuttles, rent a motorbike (some start at just €20 a day — around $25 to 30 US) and travel around the countryside.

Hit up a local market, pack a picnic and dine for free among some of the most beautiful views in the world in the Tara River Canyon. For a seriously cheap room, stay in the hostels at Contessa, which are upgraded suites and apartments with private bathrooms and balconies.

If you're looking for white sand beaches, all-inclusive resorts as well as ancient ruins and sights, head to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. This peninsula encompasses a huge area that features top tourist destinations like Cancun, Cozumel and Riviera Maya, so the chances of you finding an affordable place to stay are greater.

Each popular destination has its own vibe. Cancun is a popular spring break destination so it has tons of bars (check out Senõr Frogs), great eateries and luxurious all-inclusive resorts, like the Marriott CasasMagna Hotel, which you can get for just $119 a night. For those looking for more water adventure, like diving, snorkeling and scuba, check out Cozumel, which fronts the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere and the second largest in the world. Stay at the all-inclusive Allegro Cozumel for less than $150 a night. If you want the best of both worlds, stay in Riviera Maya, which has gorgeous wildlife tours, scuba and ancient artifacts (visit the Mayan World and ruins in Tulum) as well as shopping (check out La Quinta Ave. for stores and dining) and nightlife.

The Occidental Grand Xcaret has really affordable all-inclusive packages that include airfare.

5. Montreal, Quebec

If you've always dreamed of a Parisian honeymoon but can't afford it, check out Montreal — which many say is the next best thing to Paris. This city is the largest city in the province of Quebec, and since French is the city's official language, you'll feel like you're light-years away from home.

Montreal also boasts an incredible public transportation system, so you can get anywhere in the city without the need of a car or expensive cab. Although it might cost a bit more, you might want to stay in Vieux Montreal, or Old Montreal, because you'll be within walking distance of some of the biggest attractions, like Notre-Dame Basilica, the St. Lawrence riverfront and the Marche Bonsecours market (which was recently renovated and features tons of boutiques, restaurants and bars). You can also stay at the Intercontinental, right in the Vieux Montreal, for less than $150 US a night (depending on the time of year you visit).

What makes Montreal such a great honeymoon spot for frugal couples is the fact that most of the best attractions are free! The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, for example, costs nothing to get in. Plus, if you travel from the end of June to the beginning of July, you can catch the world famous Jazz Festival, which has many free concerts as well as those you can buy tickets for.

Thank God it's Friday, because the level of rage we're experiencing right now needs to be immediately followed by the weekend.

Amal Clooney, the wildly smart, passionate and successful human rights lawyer who also happens to be married to George Clooney, the lucky guy, gave an impassioned speech at the United Nations Thursday, urging a formal investigation into ISIS militants who she says have committed genocide against her clients, the Kurdish Yazidi, in Iraq.

"Not one ISIS militant has faced trial for international crimes anywhere in the world... Why is it that nothing has been done?" Clooney asked in her address, speaking before several nations. "I’m asking you today to stand up for justice. Every conflict reminds us that there can be no lasting peace without justice."

Clooney's work on this case could save countless innocent lives. But, according to Time magazine, we have more important things to worry about:

I just can't. I don't even have words to express the rage that completely consumes me at reading that sexist garbage heap of a tweet. Luckily, the internet was all over that, so I'll just be sitting back and doing some deep breathing exercises over here.

More: While George is Tied Up Making Movies, Amal Clooney is Busy Taking On ISIS

Time's article is as bad as its tweet. The first sentence reads, "Amal Clooney was all business on International Women’s Day," before going on to describe her outfit. Yeah, no shit, Time. Of course she was all business. SHE. WAS. THERE. TO. DO. HER. JOB. If you don't pick up on the sexism in that line, think about this: If any man addressed the United Nations, would an article about him point out that he's "all business," before listing details about what he's wearing? Never.

It casually moves from describing her outfit to describing the woman by Clooney's side, treating her like she's an accessory to match Clooney's outfit. In reality, she's a Nobel Peace Prize nominee and a fucking ISIS survivor.

Oh, and the article was written by a man. Because of course it was.Happy belated International Women's Day, y'all.

We already know that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of men and women in the United States. And while this statistic may still seem shocking, what’s even more so is the fact that 1 in every 3 women suffers from heart disease.

With these odds, the risk for cardiac arrest, or heart attacks, increases and continues to be something that we should be paying more attention to, especially with such a high chance of recurrence in women. So how can we combat post-cardiac arrest fear? Enter: cardiac rehabilitation.

Cardiac rehabilitation is a program that works like physical therapy for your heart. Once you suffer a heart attack, cardiac rehabilitation is a program that you can take part in to help strengthen your heart and alter your habits in order to prevent a recurrence. These kinds of programs normally include some form of exercise training, education on heart health and causes of heart disease or heart attacks as well as stress counseling (because we can’t overlook stress or anxiety as another important cause of heart problems).

More: 5 Heart Attack Symptoms in Women That Should Be Talked About More

The women who were not able to complete the program included a variety of demographics: those who were unmarried, smokers, obese, elderly and those with less social support. Interestingly enough, those who were depressed also chose not to complete their cardiac rehabilitation program. According to the study, cardiac rehab is supposed to help improve depression, but ironically, those women are the ones more likely to avoid it altogether. This increases the risks of recurrences even further since depression has been directly linked to heart health.

Is it an issue of accessibility, or is it an issue of aversion? These are the things that we need to highlight, and put greater stress on in order for women to combat the risks of heart disease and cardiac issues, as well as learn how to continue to live a healthy life.

According to the Washington Post, “women, in addition to the family responsibilities and financial barriers, also can face transportation problems,” and these are all daily factors that can add up to women putting other tasks first before their own well-being.

So how do we get women more interested or more concerned with their heart health? Perhaps new methods have to be implemented in order to incite a more enthusiastic desire to be proactive about cardiac health and wellness. Once we strike that happy medium between making it more accessible for women everywhere and making it more applicable to the life of the everyday woman, those awful statistics may finally change for the better.

Purses are such a useful accessory, it's honestly kind of dumb that society only normalizes them for women. Men have to carry things sometimes, too, you know? Why can't they do it in a stylish leather shoulder bag? This is a thing that needs to be fixed.

And Chanel is on it. The designer label, which makes all the purses and handbags so many of us covet but can't afford, is making the murse (man purse) a thing, except without calling it a murse because that's just terrible.

What's even better is that Chanel has tapped Pharrell Williams to be the face of its gender neutral bag line. Who better than the king of headwear? He could probably use purses to match all of his hats.

Also Pharrell and Chanel rhyme, so this is obviously a partnership that was meant to be.

Designer Karl Lagerfield told WWD.com that he designed the bag Williams models after being inspired by virtual reality goggles, which are worn by men and women, natch.

"It’s not very feminine in the sense of being chichi," he added.

And Williams seems pretty stoked on his new accessory, which he actually carries with him on the daily.

"When I first started wearing it I didn’t have anything in it. I was just so excited to have it," he said. "But now I use it to carry my phone, and — you know — essential personal things."

Unfortunately, he didn't go into any further detail about what "essential personal things" he carries, which sucks because we're dying to know what's in a celeb's murse.

Growing up in the ‘80s, I became well acquainted with all things related to dieting and fitness. I accompanied various family members to Weight Watchers meetings and Jazzercise classes, usually reading or coloring in the back of the room while the women present learned how to take control of their eating habits or shimmied off the pounds.

If the important grown-up women in my life were putting so much time and effort into losing weight through diet plans and dance routines, I knew it had to be something very serious. But I also found it terribly boring. Sure, Jazzercise sounded like fun in theory, but when it came down to it, it was just a bunch of ladies doing grapevines in a community center function room. It didn’t do it for me.

Then one day in 1991, my mother brought a new videotape home from the library. Initially, I wasn’t interested; I had seen plenty of workout videos before, and no disrespect to the legend that is Ms. Jane Fonda, but they were all a snooze.

But as soon as she popped this one in, a loud, curly-haired man in a low-cut tank top and short shorts burst onto the screen and said, “LET’S. SWEAT. AGAAAAAAAAIN,” and I knew I needed to do two things: 1) sweat like I’ve never sweat before and 2) find out more about this fascinating, energetic person.

Right off the bat, I could tell that Sweatin’ to the Oldies 2 was far superior to the other exercise videos collecting dust on the side of the VCR. For starters, the participants looked like regular people — the kind I’d see in my town. They weren’t all skinny blond models in matching leotards and leg warmers; they were men and women of all sizes in different outfits — some inexplicably wearing button-down blouses and jean shorts — all of which you could easily find at your local Kmart.

And then there was the music. My parents really didn’t move past music from the ‘60s, so I was far more familiar with Neil Sedaka and Little Eva than I was with Madonna or Wham. I loved that Richard Simmons shared our taste in music.

When he shrieked, “Oh, Daddy!” during one of the first songs, I could relate. I also enthusiastically loved my father. Simmons and I truly had so much in common.

The video set was decorated to look like a 1950s diner, but with plenty of colorful neon shapes on the wall, à la The Max in Saved by the Bell — so it had a tasteful, contemporary feel. I imagined Simmons and the other exercisers hanging out there after they worked out, and I desperately wanted to join them. We’d sip on milkshakes (presumably SlimFast) and talk about our favorite episodes of The Golden Girls. In hindsight, I’m not sure a diner was the most appropriate location for a weight-loss exercise video, but it clearly didn’t faze me or the millions (I’m assuming) of other people who enjoyed sweating along with Simmons.

More: 10 Things About Richard Simmons You Probably Forgot

At the end of the video, they would do a Soul Train-esque line where participants would dance their way down, and when they reached the end, the amount of weight they lost was revealed on the screen, with amounts ranging from 10 to 245 pounds. What you don’t understand as a child, though, is that they didn’t lose this weight after doing the video just once. So when I’d run down the hallway to weigh myself on the scale in my parents’ bathroom while the closing credits were rolling, I was distraught when I saw that I weighed the same as I did before starting the video. Nevertheless, I persisted.

I have distinct memories of doing this video on a regular basis well into the late ‘90s. My sister and I watched it so much that we even picked out our favorite participants, who we monitored throughout the video for any missteps or funny facial expressions.

Even when Sweatin’ to the Oldies 2 stopped being part of my regular routine, my love for Richard Simmons never waned. Thankfully, he graced us with his presence on television regularly, always a burst of sunshine and positivity.

And then there were the lucky few who got to do aerobics with him in person. I have a lot of reasons to be envious of my sister — she’s a brilliant mechanical engineer and all-around badass — but one reason eclipses them all: She has attended not one, but three aerobics classes at Slimmons, Simmons' studio in LA, and has met him and taken photos with him.

I’m not sure I’ll ever get over that. Living in Ireland at the time, the commute from Dublin to LA for class was just too much, but I swore that I’d make the trip out west as soon as I was able. I knew Simmons was getting up in years, but he’s an institution — I figured he’d be teaching at Slimmons and posing with fans forever.

More: Richard Simmons May Need Some Serious Help, Like, Pronto

But then, in 2014, he didn’t show up for class one day and hasn’t been seen since.

Like everyone else, I have been concerned about Simmons' whereabouts since he disappeared and have been listening to every episode of the podcast Missing Richard Simmons as soon as it is released. Like the show’s host and so many guests, it’s not that I feel as though he owes us anything, let alone being a sparkly ball of energy always in the public eye — we just want to make sure that he’s OK.

Richard, if you’re reading this, I hope that you are as happy and healthy as you’ve made the rest of us for the past three decades.

Remember when we were little, and a good old-fashioned card from Grandma with a stick of gum in it was the most exciting thing ever? Now that snail mail has pretty much been rendered obsolete, subscription boxes are the modern-day equivalent for our kids.

For children, there can still be a magical feeling of excitement when something pops into the mailbox — especially when that something is a super fun subscription box that shows up every month without fail.

KidPik: For the fashionista

Got a girl who loves fashion but hates shopping with mom? Then KidPik is right up your alley.

Then the KidPik team curates a box of goodies for her and sends it out. Each box typically has about six to seven items (tops, bottoms and accessories) at an average price of $12.50 an item. You don't pay until you get the box and decide what you want to keep, so you can always send it all back if she's not a fan. The company also offers a 30 percent discount if you decide to keep all the outfits in the box, and a "basics" line that you can buy from separately to complete her wardrobe. Currently KidPiks can be sent monthly, every three months or twice per season (eight boxes a year).

Kiwi Crate: For the crafty kid

Geared for crafty kids ages 3 through 8, the Kiwi Crate arrives each month full of fun hands-on projects that include science experiments, art projects and build-and-play games.

I was sent the Rainforest theme, which included cool crafts like a jumping frog game and a craft in which kids create their own rain stick. These little boxes include everything you need for the craft (even the scissors) as well as a Highlights-esque magazine and other activities to further explore the theme. Kiwi Crate subscriptions start at $17/month and shipping is free. (If you aren’t quite sure if you want to commit, you can purchase individual activity packs on the Kiwi Crate website or at Target stores.)

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott continue to insist that they aren't actually broke like the headlines say they are. But the evidence is really piling up against their claims.

McDermott was in court on Thursday over a child support dispute with his ex-wife, Mary Jo Eustace. He was found in contempt of court and was about to be taken to jail over his failure to pay her thousands that he owes her. The judge ended up giving McDermott one last chance to avoid jail time: He was allowed to work out a deal with Eustace.

More: Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott Announce the Arrival of Their Fifth Child

He promised to get her half of what he owes her by Monday (if, Page Six reports, he can find the cash), causing Eustace to withdraw her complaint — for now. Sources told the site that if McDermott doesn't follow through, she's planning to re-file on Tuesday, and that'll mean McDermott is heading to jail for not paying up.

Despite McDermott and Spelling's claims that they aren't in as bad of financial straights as they appear to be in the media, McDermott told the court that the reason he hasn't paid his back child support is that he's "fallen on hard times." He stopped making child support payments in October, and faced eight counts of contempt — one for each month that he didn't make a payment.

Meanwhile, Spelling and McDermott had a baby shower for their fifth pregnancy that reportedly cost five figures, and the couple is being sued by credit card companies for unpaid debts nearing $100,000. They also reportedly owe $259,000 in back taxes. The last time Spelling spoke publicly about the family's finances, she claimed they had once had money problems, but they were all in the past.

"It was one chapter," she told People magazine. "I thought I was being relatable, talking about how celebrities go through financial struggles, too, we make mistakes, too."

By now, you've probably heard: Love Actually will have a sequel.

More: Love Actually Sequel Is Actually the Best News

We're serious. Directors Richard Curtis and his wife, Emma Freud, are coming out with a sequel. That said, for those hearing it for the first time, we'll leave you to have this moment.

Slated to be a fundraising opportunity for Red Nose Day in March, the continuation entitled Red Nose Day Actually will be a rom-com skit to not only satisfy those of us who know love actually is all around, but to also help promote the holiday and bring awareness — and viewers — to all the Red Nose Day shows.

More: Nobody Knew About Emma Thompson's Secret Admirer in Love Actually

However, it won’t be a full blown film like its predecessor. According to Curtis, it’ll be something like a 10-minute glimpse into where the characters are now. In a press statement, Curtis says, "I thought it might be fun to do 10 minutes to see what everyone is now up to."

Courtesy of Freud’s Twitter feed, we’ve been blessed with some behind-the-scenes sneak peeks into #rednosedayactually. And we’ve confirmed a few other things, too:

Juliet and Peter are still happily married

Mark is still using cue cards

But, plot twist: Maybe he’s moved on?

The PM and his lovely wife are sure to make an appearance

And more of the beloved cast are scripted to return, like Colin Firth, Lucia Moniz, Liam Neeson, Olivia Olson

Needless to say, we’re hyped for the cast to come together again, and we’re hopeful for the outcome.

Here is what we are done with: any mention of a pregnant woman "flaunting" or "showing off" or "debuting" her "baby bump."

Enough is enough. Seriously. Stop it.

We're glad people are calling bullshit on Time magazine's sexist and demeaning tweet: "Amal Clooney shows off her baby bump at the United Nations."

Yes, Time, Amal — an international human rights lawyer with a brilliant mind and amazing CV — got all gussied up to pay a friendly visit to the United Nations to flaunt her baby bump.

We repeat: Stop it.

More: Amal Clooney's changing the world, even if you're not paying attention

This isn't just about Amal, however — this is just the most recent example (and one of the most egregious). Any time a famous pregnant woman steps outside, the media describes her as "flaunting" her midriff. Let's see some examples, shall we?

(We're just going to overlook the typo on that last one because we're bigger than that.)

According to Dictionary.com, to "flaunt" is to "parade or display ostentatiously." It implies that the pregnant woman's got a real attitude. She thinks she's hot stuff. Apparently, if she's not wearing a Lanz nightgown while knocked up, she's showing off like the showoff she is.

Here's the thing: Pregnant women have no choice but to tote along their moppet-filled uteruses. It's not a purse they're hoping to show off at Sunday brunch. The morphing of the female body during gestation is not optional. And when you are a celebrity, it generally behooves you (because such is our culture) to gussy yourself up lest you get eviscerated by the press for (horrors!) letting yourself go.

So given that people get pregnant, and famous people go out and look nice because that's their job, what is the hysteria over the sight of a famous pregnant woman? Why do we salivate over the idea of a pregnant woman not hiding the reality of being knocked up? Is she supposed to cower in shame? What sort of dark Puritanical impulse lurks behind all this glee at noticing a celebrity's "bump"?

Better people than we will have to figure that out. In the meantime, though, can we all go 30 seconds without using "flaunt" or "show off" to refer to a person in the public eye who has the nerve to also be expecting? Because right now, we'd really love to flaunt our middle fingers at this insane trend.

More: Gifts That Pregnant Women Actually Want

Looks like the women of the world have Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau to thank for renewing our faith in humanity and the ability of government to support women's reproductive rights. During a talk on International Women’s Day on Wednesday, Trudeau announced that his government will spend $650 million over the next three years on sexual and reproductive health initiatives worldwide.

This exciting news has supporters — and women, in particular — breathing a yuuuge sigh of relief considering recent political threats to women's reproductive rights in the U.S. While naysayers will focus solely on the word “abortion,” those who believe in women’s reproductive rights are beyond thrilled about the possibilities of this funding, which will go toward supporting sex education, family planning and contraceptives and strengthening reproductive health services. The money will also fund programs to prevent and respond to sexual and gender-based violence, including forced marriage and female genital mutilation and supporting the right of women to get safe and legal abortions.

More: 6 Reasons Women Support Justin Trudeau

This news couldn't have come at a better time. U.S. President Donald Trump just announced an executive order to block funding to organizations that counsel women on family planning options that include abortion services, which is estimated to leave a $600-million gap for international groups. That's pretty terrifying, to say the least.

In addition to the advocacy and education surrounding these issues, Trudeau also said Canada is committed to taking a leadership role in the fight to prevent risky abortions and promote reproductive rights by pledging to help fight anti-abortion laws and try to reduce the estimated 22 million unsafe abortions annually. Thank goodness someone is willing to step up and advocate for women’s reproductive rights and safety.

Oh, and just when we thought Trudeau couldn't be any more supportive of women, he goes and says this: “It is important that as a world we recognize that empowering women, that respecting their rights, is fundamental to building a world in which everyone has a real and fair chance to succeed.” Trudeau obviously isn't hard on the eyes, but those words are really what made us swoon.

Megyn Kelly is ambitious. That's certainly no secret.

So it's really not surprising that she has a pretty lofty goal for the next stage in her career: She basically wants to be the next Oprah.

More: No, Savannah Guthrie Isn't Giving up Her Today Show Seat to Megyn Kelly

Sources told Page Six that Kelly was, understandably, exhausted by the combative reporting she did at Fox News by the time she jumped ship to join NBC's lineup.

"There was a lot of tough news to report on her show at Fox News," one insider told the site. "A lot of combative interviewing, going after people. Doing that every night was difficult. Megyn feels she has more to offer. She wants to help people the way Oprah did, and do something more positive. She’ll be focusing on issues and bringing in real people as well as celebrities. Plus, she has a sense of humor and she wants to use that."

More: Did Megyn Kelly Hint in her Memoir that She was Poisoned by Trump?

We've known since 2015 that Kelly aspires to be like Oprah — she said as much in an interview that year with Vanity Fair: "Barbara Walters has retired, Diane Sawyer left her anchor role. Oprah has moved to the OWN network and is doing a different thing now. So why not me?”

What we now know is that Kelly is planning to use her new job at NBC to pursue that dream.

According to an insider, “Megyn will have the Sunday night show on NBC to scratch that itch. That’s where you’ll see the big interviews and stories."

NBC is currently searching for a candidate to executive produce Kelly's show. She's not allowed to be part of that process yet, since she's still under contract with Fox until July 1.

But does she actually have the chops to be the next Oprah? Only time will tell.

Kristen Stewart may have chopped her hair into a platinum blonde buzz cut, but the urge to push her hair out of her face has not left her. Exhibit A: An amazing video, in which Stewart tries to vamp for the cameras at the L.A. premiere of Personal Shopper, but mostly just gets annoyed with herself for compulsively touching her hair.

Stewart appears to become more and more perturbed as she continues to raise her hands to move her nonexistent locks away from her face at this premiere, which makes us realize two things: a) apparently, people who shave their heads experience phantom hair syndrome; and b) how overwhelming and distracting it must be to stand in front of a thousand flashbulbs per second. The whole process, pointed out by Buzzfeed, is actually kind of fascinating.

Here's the video:

Stewart also showed off her new hair at the "Late Show with Stephen Colbert," and got a little confused about how hair growth works. "I like the new hair," Colbert told her.

"Thank you. it's not new; it's actually the oldest hair," she said.

"The oldest hair is the long hair," Colbert said, after an awkward pause.

"Actually, you're right," Stewart said. Then she adorably added, "I messed that up." Since when is Stewart all of us?!
