Ariana Grande roars to the defense of her brother Frankie

Ariana Grande recently came roaring to the defense of her brother, Frankie, on a Instagram post.

The pop star saw that someone referred to her brother (currently a contestant on CBS’ BIG BROTHER) as “that homo.”

Grande responded thusly:

“That ‘homo’ is the fiercest, most incredible, funniest, most intelligent, kind hearted and most LOVED person on the face of the planet! he also cleaned up his game and told the truth to everybody in the house WHICH by the way, nobody else on the show has done. so i don’t give a flying fuck if or when he comes home!!! he is incredible and i am SO proud!!!! oh and also ‘that homo’ gets more ass than you’ll ever get in your life. k miss thing?”

I posted Ariana’s newest video “Break Free” earlier today.

Instagram now has video capability

Facebook added video for Instagram to compete with the fast-growing Twitter app, Vine.

Instagram’s Kevin Systrom says video clips on Instagram can be 3 to 15 seconds long and include “shaky hand” video stabilization technology called Cinema.

Facebook acquired the photo-sharing app Instagram in April 2012 for $715 million, just before Facebook went public. Instagram now has more than 100 million users.

Adding video to Instagram is a move to compete with rival Twitter. Twitter acquired Vine last October and it launched in January. Vine has grown to 13 million users.

I’ve downloaded the app and it seems very easy to use. AND you can apply filters to the short video clips the same way you do photos on Instagram. Plus multiple frame and uploading options.

I’ll play with it and see what I think. How about you readers? Would you use the app for a quick 15 second video upload?
