Sadie Robertson of “Duck Dynasty” appeared on “Good Morning America,” revealing the inspiration behind her viral YouTube video on Monday.

Christian Post Report – Earlier this month, Robertson went make-up free in a seven-minute video posted to YouTube that encouraged viewers to “live original.” Furthermore, the 17-year-old addressed body image and revealed finding strength in her faith. After the clip received over 2.5 million views, the “Duck Dynasty” star was invited to “GMA” where she shared even more about the message.

“I was kinda preaching to myself, a message that I needed to hear,” Robertson recalled of recording the message for fans on YouTube. “Then my little sister came home from church and watched it. She said, ‘Sadie that’s really good, you should post it,’ so I posted it and the next thing I know, I’m on ‘Good Morning America’ talking about it.”

The teen model is best known for starring on A&E’s “Duck Dynasty,” but Sadie has also appeared on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.” Consequently, the starlet has accumulated thousands of young fans who consider her a role model. In the viral video, Robertson used “straight up honesty” with her fans about her own struggle with jealousy and confidence problems.

“For girls, no matter who you are or what position you’re in, everybody struggles with insecurities and everybody kinda compares themselves to somebody else, whether they want to admit it or not,” Robertson continued while on “GMA.”

The tell-all video also left viewers with a strong message of faith with Robertson encouraging viewers to embrace their flaws and find confidence in God.

“I just wanted people to know that no matter who you are, you can’t reach it by comparing yourself to other humans,” the reality star noted on the morning show. “And for me, I found that going through God was the best way that I could do it.”

Meanwhile, Robertson’s YouTube post also included several quotes from Scripture relating to jealousy as well as worry. Today, the post continues to garner millions of views and comments. Watch the clip here.

Christian Post Report – Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose informed the press that his return from a meniscectomy procedure will “probably” happen this week.

“If anything, I’m just trying to get my mental [approach] together so when I come back it won’t be like my previous times,” the 26-year-old NBA player told ESPN. “I think I was away from the game too long [during] previous injuries, and with me missing five, six, seven weeks now, I think that my return is about to be [smoother].”

The 2011 Most Valuable Player further said that he and the franchise he’s playing in were “taking it day by day, really day by day” with regards to his return.

Rose has been out from the court since he underwent the procedure to correct his knee problems on Feb. 27. Prior to his latest setback, he was side-lined in April 2012 for the medial meniscus on the left knee and then on the right side back in November 2013.

Despite all the setbacks that he and the Bulls suffered, Rose didn’t let all the pressure get over him.

“I’m playing all right,” he continued. “For a guy that missed two years, coming back and just being able to be with these guys and still being on the game plan. What do you know, missed two years and still be on the game plan … the team is preparing for you? I’m just grateful for that. I’m grateful to still be able to play this game.”

Coach Tom Thibodeau meanwhile chimed in to speak about Rose’s recovery on Sunday.

“Only he knows his body, and that’s the big thing,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said before Sunday’s game. “So he’s got to continue to work through it, and I trust him. When he says, he’s ready.”

Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting Reuters/File

Christian Post Report – Kaley Cuoco and tennis player husband Ryan Sweeting during the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards held in Los Angeles, California last September 2013.

“The Big Bang Theory” star, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting, once again blasted rumors that her marriage with tennis player Ryan Sweeting is on the rocks.

A report from Film-News UK cited Kaley’s latest social media post saying that all these speculations about her marriage had “only makes us stronger.”

“I have never been more proud of anyone on this planet – this guy is fighting back from a whirlwind of injuries and not to mention constant ‘conversation’ regarding our marriage and basically any daily decision we decide to make,” she said.

“I’m so proud of his passion and his inner strength to fight back, but most of all I am proud to be his wife,” she wrote on her Instagram. “So all of you who take it upon yourselves to trash our marriage, daily workings of our relationship and everything in between, go ahead and keep doing it, cause it only makes us stronger.”

The 29-year-old shared a pic of her husband in action, most probably during a tennis match, along with the lengthy caption above.

“If you were smart, you would take a look at your own marriage, relationship, job etc,, instead of focusing on someone else’s. You might be surprised at what you find,” she went on to say. “You know my name, not my story.”

Speculations previously pointed out the rumors stating that the couple were arguing over the issue of when they should really start building their family.

On Thursday, last week, she shared a photo of herself kissing Sweeting and captioned it with:

“We are totally getting divorced, can’t you tell!!?!”

The actress also bashed the rumors of her getting pregnant by adding the hashtag “#notpregnant.”

Christian Post Report – The cast of Guardians of the Galaxy will reprise their roles in the sequel, slated for a 2017 release

James Gunn, director of the successful “Guardians of the Galaxy” movie and sometimes considered a maverick in the film industry, recently came out and shared with fans some details about the upcoming “Guardians of the Galaxy” sequel. While Marvel Studios chooses to keep things hush-hush in most of its movie projects, Gunn has broken the mold once again by allowing himself to be interviewed about the movie.

In a recent interview done using a new livestreaming app called Periscope, Gunn gamely shared the status of the film’s script. He said that he was 70 pages into the script and he has lined up various meetings with Marvel folks this week to plan out how he will implement his plans for the movie.

He also acknowledged that the studio had earlier called his plan as “very risky” but that they “trust him and was okay with his seemingly radical plan.”

The sequel “is not really based on anything. The story for Guardians 2 is an original story that I came up with that I started working on actually while I was shooting Guardians 1, and it’ll answer some of the questions that were put forth in the first movie about Peter Quill’s father and who he is and what’s going on with that,” he previously told Screen Crush.

Another revelation is about two new characters who will important to Guardians movies as well as the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He did not reveal who these two new characters are during the interview, however. One of the things he confirmed is the return of Nebula, played by Karen Gillan. Nebula is the adopted sister of Gamora, one of the Guardians played by Zoe Saldana. Some speculations says that perhaps the two will pick up where they left off in the first movie. Ronan, the other villain who made an appearance in the first movie, will not come back as he was killed off the first time around.

Shooting is set to begin in February 2016 at Pinewood Studios in Atlanta. It is slated for a May 5, 2017 release.

Christian Post Report – Android Lollipop update is available for Verizon customers with Samsung Galaxy S5 devices

Android 5.0 Lollipop updates have rolled out intermittently for several of Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones, with network carriers making the update available for a majority of the manufacturer’s handset variations than most.

With the latest version of the Android mobile OS, Android 5.0 Lollipop, initially made available in November 2014 for smartphone users, its latest round of release in March 9, covered nearly four percent of all Android devices that have access to Google Play, which includes most Samsung Galaxy handsets.

Samsung Galaxy S5 affiliated carriers have already released their updates for Android 5.0 Lollipop, except for AT&T, which issued a statement last month they were still going through the update to search for possible bugs, and have not given out any information on their progress since then.

Android 5.0 Lollipop is available for Samsung Galaxy S4 in a number of regions, including several areas in Europe and Asia, with U.S. and Canada users still awaiting word on when the update will be released for their S4 handsets.

No information is yet forthcoming on when the Samsung Galaxy S3 will be getting its own Android update, but tech insiders are speculating there may be no chance the aging device will be getting its own update anytime soon. With Samsung’s efforts focused on the release of its latest flagship phone, the Samsung Galaxy S6, pushing for Android 5.0 Lollipop on the S3 may be the least of the South Korean multinational’s concerns.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport exclusively distributed by Sprint is already running the Android Lollipop, while the Active, Alpha and Mini will soon be getting their own updates, as well. However, Samsung has yet to release a timeframe on the latter three, so users may continue to stay tuned this month for more news on the latest Android OS updates for their devices.

Customers waiting for new of pre-order dates for the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge won’t have to worry about uploading the Android 5.0 Lollipop on the new devices which will ship by April 10 with the latest update already installed.

Christian Post Report – Asus Zenfone 2

Three months after the official unveiling of the device at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the Christian Post Report – Asus Zenfone 2 lineup of smartphones is now arriving to its target markets.

A few weeks ago, the device was made available in the company’s home markets in Taiwan and China. And contrary to previous reports, the device may be hitting Western markets initially, particularly the EU, before other Asian countries.

According to the report by TheFuseJoplin on Monday, the Christian Post Report – Asus Zenfone 2 devices are available to purchase in Europe, with pricing costs beginning at only 179 euros.

While this pricing is still pretty expensive, considering the original price tag of the new Zenfones in Asia, it can still be considered cheap, especially taking note of its specs.

While the Christian Post Report – Asus Zenfone 2 was seemingly announced as a single device, it is in fact a lineup of several Android-powered devices.

The highest-end model is the ZE550ML which packs a 5.5-inch display with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, a quad-core Intel Atom chipset, a whopping 4GB of RAM, a 13MP primary camera, 32GB of built-in storage, and Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box.

Based on the report, this model costs just 349 euros in the EU.

Meanwhile, other versions of the Christian Post Report – Asus Zenfone 2 have varying amounts of RAM and built-in storage, different levels of frequency, camera and display resolution, etc.

In another report by the International Business Times, the popular Asus handset will become available in Malaysia beginning April 21.

DC and Warner Bros. Wants ‘Lego Movie’ Directors for ‘The Flash’

DC and Warner Bros. Wants ‘Lego Movie’ Directors for ‘The Flash’

The Flash DC Comics YouTube/File

Christian Post Report – A screen capture on YouTube of The Flash.

After months of focusing on the upcoming “Batman vs. Superman” and “Suicide Squad” movies, some reports are saying that DC may have been neglecting its other superheroes.Not much has been heard about what’s going on with “The Flash,” until recently.

Cinema Blend reports that a rumor has been going around that DC and Warner Bros. are looking for a director to helm the project. And it seems that they have their eye on not just one, but two directors. “The Lego Movie” directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who also worked on “22 Jump Street” are reportedly being sought by DC and Warner Bros.

The duo is apparently very popular right now as another offer is on the table for them, this time to direct the new “Ghostbusters” movie for Sony. According to the report, they had earlier declined the offer but are thought to possibly reconsider because of new developments in the upcoming franchise.

A report in Collider says that the directing duo do not have any directing projects as of the moment. Most of their projects in TV and in film require them to be producers such as “The Last Man on Earth” and a reboot of “The Great American Hero” as well as “Ninjago,” “The Lego Batman Movie” and “The Lego Movie Sequel,” so it’s likely they will take a directing project soon.

Although the solo film is not coming out until 2018, the lead actor for “The Flash” has been cast. The superhero will be played by actor Ezra Miller. Miller was cast in late 2014. One of the reasons for the early casting is a cameo appearance in the upcoming “The Justice League Part One” of 2017, and then again in the movie’s sequel, which will show in 2019. It was earlier rumored that the “Fastest Man Alive” will also appear in “Batman vs. Superman” but this has been debunked.
