Surviving on your own merit when your dad is the Snoop D-O-Double-G is probably no easy task!

That's why we're super pumped to hear that Snoop's son is doing extremely well, and Cordell Broadus has a ton of college options because of his OWN skills: he was just offered a full scholarship to Louisiana State University (LSU) and the University of Southern California (USC)!!

Here's what Cordell had to say about the USC offer:

After the Boy Scouts of American unveiled their momentous decision yesterday to allow openly gay boys in their group- a lot of people were getting a little choked up.

One person who definitely was feeling some love was an openly gay scout from Maryland named Pascal Tessier.

It's been a long road for this top notch boy scout, but he can finally be gay and proud!

Here's what he said:

"I was thinking that today could be my last day as a Boy Scout. Obviously, for gay Scouts like me, this vote is life-changing."

Yet Pascal also feels uneasy about the change in the rules of the game.

It's about time!!

After months of endless debate, the Boy Scouts of America finally voted to allow openly gay scouts to join their ranks!!

Over 60% of the 1,400 person polled think the youth organization should allow all qualified members, regardless of sexual orientation!!

Even though the a large percentage of the organization is run by those affiliated with Mormon and Catholic churches who are, sadly, sometimes unhip to LGBT tolerance, the measure was still able to pass!

The first hard fought battle was won, but plenty of work remains!!

Oliver Burton has cancer for the third time in his ten short years, and doctors are not optimistic.

So the brave little boy made a dying wish- to meet Queen Elizabeth II. But the Queen doesn't do that sort of thing.

Fortunately, The Queen does!

Zach Sobiech was just a normal 14-year-old teenager living in Minnesota when his doctors diagnosed him with osteosarcoma - a rare form of bone cancer.

After a long fight with the cancer, doctors told Zach he only had a few months to live. Zach turned to music and recorded a song called Clouds, a song about dealing with death, which has since gone viral and has been viewed by over three million fans!

So it is with a heavy heart that we bear the sad news that Zach passed away on Monday morning. He was 18 years old.

Here's what the Children's Cancer Research Fund said in a statement:

We just can't get enough of Ellen DeGeneres giving gifts, especially to those in need!
