All tag results for 'young adults'

Along with Jillian Jensen, X Factor’s Young Adults category also contains CeCe Frey, the girl with the painted leopard spots!

Throughout the competition thus far, CeCe has been labeled as catty and unlikeable — one thing that mentor Demi Lovato QUICKLY pointed out to her at her house!

Check out CeCe’s performance of LMFAO’s Sexy And I Know It (above) and see if she took Nick Jonas and Demi’s advice… or if she completely blew it!

Well, we can't say we were expecting that! Definitely a risky move with only four being able to move on from each category!

While CeCe DID take their advice to heart and certainly has a great voice on her, we are still having a hard time believing that she’s genuine!

Guess we’ll have to see if the leopard CeCe changes her spots!!!

MTV wants everyone to know (as do we) that April is STD Awareness Month!!

Didn't know that??

Well now you do and make sure everyone else does.

Because guess what… one in two sexually active youngins WILL GET AN STD by age 25!!!

And even if you're not sexually active (which is totally cool too) you still have to be careful. Use any truck stop restrooms recently? Getting tested might still be smart.

Have a promiscuous friend? Go with them so they don't feel bad! Make a day of it!

Feel uncomfortable about going to get tested? It's painless, usually very cheap (sometimes free) and it's not awkward because you're trying to stay healthy! (And people will know you have sex which makes you super cool.)

Remember: GYT! Get Yourself Tested!

So inspiring!

Check out the latest It Gets Better video (above), which was released by active-duty U.S. soldiers!

We cannot thank these troops enough for putting together such a wonderful video, with such an important message!

We've lost far too many teens and young adults to bullying and hate. We hope that people will continue to send out messages of hope such as this one! The violence and hatred must end!

It does get better, and it WILL get better!

According to a new study, you don't need to go to college to gain what is often called the "freshman 15".

Instead, researchers at Ohio State University’s Center for Human Resource Research believe this weight gain is typical of ALL young adults, regardless of whether they are amassing student loan debt.

The study has also found that weight gain during the 13th grade is usually only between 2.5 and 3.5 pounds.

After analyzing data from over 7,000 students surveyed in 1997 before college, then again a year later, it was determined women gained an average of 2.4 pounds freshman year, while men gained 3.4. No more than 10% of college freshman gained the mythological 15 pounds

The paper's co-author, Jay Zagorsky, explained:
