Ariel Winter Rocks with Her Breast Reduction Scars on SAG Awards

In her 18-years-old, Ariel Winter has already proved to be quite the role model for teens everywhere — but especially for those struggling with body confidence issues.

At the SAG Awards on Saturday, Winter wore a dress that didn't hide scars from her breast reduction surgery. A day after the ceremony, she spoke to fans on Twitter about the choice.

"Guys there is a reason I didn't make an effort to cover up my scars! They are part of me and I'm not ashamed of them at all," the "Modern Family" actress tweeted.

Dressing for red carpet events has always been a challenge for the Winter, who once had a 32F bust size.

She went under the knife in April 2015 in order to relieve the "excruciating" pain.

"I think it will be the only [cosmetic surgery] I'll have done, but I'm extremely happy with the decision I made," she told PEOPLE recently.

"It's important to talk about it because there are young girls suffering like I did, but there shouldn't be a stigma about it."

Last year, in an interview with Glamour, Winter said having size F breasts at 15 made life difficult to navigate.

But the TV star stressed the decision to reduce her size was solely her own.

"I got it for myself. I can't even really put it into words about how amazing it feels to really feel right," the teen said. "This is how I was supposed to be."

And she's proud of it. Winter had no intentions of ever covering her scars, admitting she was puzzled when asked if she'd planned keep it a secret.

"I kind of was confused by that question because to me it was not something to hide. I don't think anyone should have to hide anything in general for fear of being scrutinized."

Zika Virus is Proved Causing Birth Defects

Officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has confirmed on Wednesday that there was now enough evidence to say that the Zika virus could cause unusually small heads and brain damage in infants born to infected mothers. A therapist teaching a mother in Recife, Brazil, last month how to massage her baby, who has microcephaly. The conclusion should settle months of debate about the connection between the infection and these birth defects, called microcephaly, as well as other neurological abnormalities, the officials said. “There is no longer any doubt that Zika causes microcephaly,” said Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, the C.D.C. director. He said the conclusion, reached after evaluating “mounting evidence from many studies,” signifies “an unprecedented association” in medicine. “Never before in history has there been a situation where a bite from a mosquito can result in a devastating malformation,” Dr. Frieden said. ...

Nigerian army Claims the Second Rescue of Chibok Girl

A second schoolgirl that was seized in the Nigerian town of Chibok has been found, the army says. But a spokesman for the Chibok girls' parents has cast doubt on the claims, saying that the girl's name is not on the families' list of those missing. An army spokesman said Serah Luka was among a group of 97 women and children rescued by troops in the north-east. Islamist militant group Boko Haram has abducted thousands of other girls in recent years, rights groups estimate. This comes two days after the rescue of the first Chibok girl, Amina Ali Nkeki. The army has previously given misleading statements about the rescue of the Chibok girls - in its initial statement after Ms Nkeki was found, it used a wrong name. In all, 218 girls remain missing after their abduction by the Boko Haram Islamist group from Chibok secondary school in north-eastern Nigeria in 2014. Ms Nkeki told a Chibok community leader that six of the kidnapped girls had died, but...

Will Ferrell and His Bird Collectian As "The Birds are for God"

An acclaimed actor and comedic genius like Will Ferrell is incredibly pleased to spend some valued time with his incredibly expensive bird collection, according to his good friend Adam McKay. McKay, who has directed Ferrell in films like "Anchorman" and "Step Brothers," told HuffPost Live on Monday that Ferrell's home is brimming with birds of all kinds, and Ferrell himself is a bit of a bird whisperer. "He has giant cages on his property filled with different tropical birds, and these are the kind of birds that will bite you, that you have to be careful with, but when it's him, they just fly right to his arm," McKay said. "Often times if you're at his house ... he has, like, a cockatiel on his shoulder for long stretches." An affinity for birds isn't exactly surprising, but what will shock you is the enormous monetary value of Ferrell's flock. "He had to have his bird collection insured, and I think it's wor...
