Cheryl Burke, the Dancing with the Stars performer who’d also agreed to co-host this year’s Miss USA Pageant with MSNBC’s Thomas Roberts, released a statement this afternoon saying she can’t host anymore. The cause, as with so many of the world’s ills, is Donald Trump.

Last week, a high school graduation ceremony in Stone Mountain, GA ended prematurely after the valedictorian’s speech was accidentally skipped.

Hey, remember this guy? The one who posted a hilariously specific list of stringent requirements for his ideal (super hot and DEFINITELY NOT BLACK) girlfriend? Well, I'm sorry to inform you that he's back. And this time, we've got sexts.
Earlier tonight, Miss New York, Nina Davuluri, an Indian-American woman born in Syracuse, was crowned the winner of the 2014 Miss America Pageant.
