Brit electro band Hot Chip just released a video for their single “Don’t Deny Your Heart,” and the soccer-themed video sends a powerful message about homophobia in the athletic world. The music video -- which is modeled after a video game -- centers around two players on opposing teams whose tension runs a litttttle deeper than the field.

Last night Twitter went wild as people were glued to the news and announcements on winners were made. Learning that Barack Obama had been reelected as president of the United States was the biggest Twitter trend of the night and in Twitter history, but there was also a lot of talk about women and politics, and Sophia Bush had good news to share!

It's over! What a season of politics that will forever go down in the history books! President Barack Obama was re-elected, and Governor Mitt Romney gracefully took the loss -- but both agree Washington must work together to get us really going. For the past year Romney and Obama have gone head to head on the campaign trail, and we think it's time they go hand in hand.
