Colin Kaepernick started kneeling during the anthem in 2016. He was playing for the San Francisco 49ers, and before each game, when the anthem played, he either took a knee or he simply sat down. I remember Kaepernick being very open to dialogue and conversation at that time – he spoke with veterans and veterans’ groups about how to best protest and then he made up his mind to continue protesting in certain ways. Then the NFL blackballed him from getting a job when his contract was up, and on and on. These are still conversations we’re having three years later. Kaepernick was always clear that he was protesting about racial inequality in general, and specifically protesting the extrajudicial killings of people of color. Well, Colin covers the latest issue of Paper Magazine and he spoke about the murder of a black man in San Francisco which triggered a change in him:

Colin Kaepernick says the 2015 shooting death of Mario Woods — a black man who was shot multiple times by police officers — is what compelled him to become a civil rights activist. Colin told his story to Paper Magazine … saying he was deeply affected by the incident, in which 26-year-old Woods was shot 21 times by 5 San Francisco PD officers during a Dec. 2, 2015 incident. Cops confronted Woods — who was holding a knife — after receiving reports about a nearby stabbing. Officers initially used non-lethal bean bag rounds on Woods while ordering him to drop the knife — but then opened fire with live ammo when they claim he became aggressive and a threat.

But, cellphone footage posted after the incident appeared to contradict the police description — showing Woods up against a wall while holding the knife at his side in a non-threatening manner. A death investigation revealed Woods was shot 21 times — 6 of those bullets struck him in the back. The incident outraged citizens who accused the SFPD of executing Woods unjustly … and according to Kap’s girlfriend, Nessa, the QB began feeding his brain immediately after.

“If Colin wasn’t reviewing a playbook, he was reading a history book,” Nessa told Paper. Kap took a knee in August 2016 — 8 months after Woods’ death — and began his Know Your Rights Camp initiative that same year, using the Black Panther movement as inspiration.

I’m using TMZ’s summary because TMZ has the history of the case. You can read the Paper story online – it’s about how Kaepernick developed his the Know Your Rights Camp (KYRC) based on the Black Panthers’ Ten-Point Platform and Program. Colin calls Mario Woods’ death an “execution” and said that in the months that followed, he felt loss, pain and anger. The KYRC will ideally reach out to kids in communities of color and try to teach them their rights, from legal rights to health care rights to educational rights. It sounds great, honestly.

Do you ever look at Orlando Bloom and get kind of sad? He could have had such a huge career. He was on the cusp of that after turns in massively successful franchises, Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Carribean. So what happened? Bad career decisions, a “bad picker” for scripts, and… I kind of suspect that Orlando couldn’t handle the work. Like, he’s not a great actor and he couldn’t fake it at some level. So after not doing much of anything for years (career-wise), Orlando is turning to streaming. He has a new show, Carnival Row, on Amazon Prime. Cara Delevingne is in it too. The big premiere event was last night.

Orlando walked the carpet with Katy Perry, his fiancee and hype lady. They actually haven’t walked that many carpets together – he will show up for some of her events, but they usually don’t do carpets together. Katy got her hair re-blonded and it’s too much. But at least Orlando looks into it. Orlando told a media outlet that “being engaged is a lot of work.” Is it? He also talked about how he and Katy stay connected: by having sex. “I would say that sex is a really important part of life because it’s a way to connect, it’s a way to show intimacy. Intimacy is an incredibly important part of life because if you can be intimate with somebody, then you’re blessed, right?” Okay.

Here’s Cara – she wore Iris Van Herpen and severe hair.

I apologize to anyone taking Lori Loughlin’s whole criminal/PR nightmare seriously, but whenever I do cover these stories, I end up laughing. This is some funny sh-t, it’s like Lori is a clueless rich bitch in a Christopher Guest movie. She truly went to People Magazine and tried to act like she deserved sympathy because, you know, she’s been living in “her own prison,” i.e. her mansion where she can come and go and have friends over and go shopping and drink wine and watch TV. That kind of prison. Lori and her husband are due in court next week, which is why we’re suddenly getting this flurry of updates. This Us Weekly one is ah-mazing.

Lori Loughlin is doing what she can to avoid jail time. When the Fuller House star, 55, was first charged for her alleged involvement in the nationwide college admissions scandal, sources told Us she maintained her innocence and refused a plea. Now, the actress “has asked her lawyer to negotiate a plea deal that would involve no jail time, but home confinement with monitoring via ankle monitor,” an insider exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly. “She’s willing to pay a substantial fine, over $2 million.”

The the Hallmark Channel alum and husband Mossimo Giannulli were among the 51 people who were indicted in March for their alleged involvement in the bribery scam. The parents of Bella, 20, and Olivia Jade, 19, were accused of paying $500,000 to get their daughters accepted into the University of Southern California. Unfortunately for Loughlin, it’s too little, too late. At this point, says the insider, “any deal would involve significant jail time.”

What’s funny is that back in April, she was offered a plea deal which would have involved about two years in prison, maybe less. Lori rejected the deal and the prosecutors added more counts to the indictment, so now she’s facing up to, like, 20 years in prison if convicted. But she’s still pulling this clueless rich bitch act, like some real-life Lucille Bluth, and pretending that she is TOTALLY still open to any deal. Any deal that would involve no jail time and simply writing a check to make this all go away. I imagine federal prosecutors chuckled about this. Then, People Magazine had this story and I really did LOL.

As Lori Loughlin awaits her fate in the college admissions scandal, the Fuller House star’s daughters are firmly standing by her — and will continue to do so.

“They’ll be the first ones to visit her if she does have to spend time in jail,” a legal source tells PEOPLE about Isabella Rose, 20, and YouTube star Olivia Jade, 19. Her daughters are also getting support from their inner circle. “Bella still lives at home, and Olivia has her own place but they both have a big group of friends,” says a longtime Loughlin pal. “None of their friends have turned on them. It’s the opposite.”

“They’ll be the first ones to visit her if she does have to spend time in jail.” *snort-giggle* My mom would straight-up murder me. My mom would not have even paid $20 in bribes to get me into college, but if she had ever done a crime FOR ME, you better believe that I would never be allowed to forget it. And I would not be able to get away with a perky “If you go to jail, I’ll totally visit you!” My mom would kill me with her bare hands.
