May 20 sure was an interesting day on social media. Among the many lovey-dovey posts, we were tickled pink most by this tongue-in-cheek message Kate dedicated to her hubby Andie.
“This hairstyle and beard, for me to have tolerated it for so long, it’s really true love,” she wrote.

Donnie Yen showed us why he’s one of Hongkong’s top action stars

Donnie Yen and his stunt team took on the viral fight video challenge that compiles a series of action shots from different people into one seamless clip. "I’ve been an action director for over 30 years and blessed to have my dedicated, loyal and hard working stunt team with me for so many yrs. Our team (long and short term, worldwide) has probably reached over 100 action brothers and sisters. (Unfortunately couldn’t have everyone in our video) So proud to see many of them becoming world renowned action directors and top stunt action heroes behind the scenes. These guys don’t get enough credit," wrote the action star.

Even better? Donnie's vid features Singaporean stunt actor Yan Hua.
