2. Jussie Smollet
After the 'Empire' actor was attacked back in January, Twitter stood with him against the racially biased and homophobic acts he was subjected to. Now, reports have surfaced online alleging Smollet may have staged his own attack. In an interview Smollet, who's an openly gay African-American man says, "I'm pissed off. It's the attackers, but it's also the attacks."
"At first it was a thing of 'Like, listen, if I tell the truth, then that's it - cause it's the truth,'. Then it became a thing of 'Like, oh, how can you doubt that? Like, how do you not believe that?' It's the truth."He added. No leads have so far been found due to lack of any CCTV footages, suspects or any other evidence that would have been recovered at the scene of the hate crime.

Singles in the world may not have received any Valentines gifts (or messages) but definitely expected one from the team at social platform, Snapchat. Sadly, they did not receive that either. Every year, on various occasions and events, Snapchat's support team forwards messages to its users in marking the event. Users expressed their disappointment and were not holding back.

6. #ChiniYaThao
The hashtag was created to promote an online retail shop where Kenyans could spend less than Kshs. 1000 on their partners without having to dig deeper into their pockets. However, the hashtag quickly took a turn to other things. Politician Babu Owino was not left behind either.
