The new Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 poster has caused a bit of controversy because it seemingly displays the C-word right smack dab in the middle. See the image at right and below.

The photo was tweeted out earlier this week from the film’s official Twitter account to promote 100 days until Mockingjay hits theaters. On the poster, Jennifer Lawrence’s character Katniss Everdeen is seen staring intently into the camera with red war paint on her face. The words “100 Days Until” is written across the middle of the poster.

At first glance, the image seems innocent enough, but with closer inspection it’s revealed that because of where the word “until” is placed on the poster in relation to part of the zero (0) in 100, it looks like it spells out the curse word “c*nt.” It took Gossip Cop a few seconds to spot the bad word, but once you see it, it’s hard not to notice it every time you look at the poster.

Gossip Cop reached out for a comment about the visual slip, but did not immediately hear back. And the tweet initially sent out from the Mockingjay Twitter account has been deleted. The movie opens in theaters on November 20. Check out the Mockingjay- Part 2 poster below, and tell us what you think.

The White House announced on Friday President Obama created a music channel on Spotify, featuring his favorite singers, including Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and Coldplay. The president hand-picked 40 songs and divided them into two playlists, one he can enjoy during the day and another he can listen to at night.

For his daytime playlist, Obama has such songs as “Live It Up” by The Isley Brothers, Bob Dylan’s “Tombstone Blues,” Coldplay’s “Paradise,” and Stevie Wonder’s “Another Star.” Other songs the president likes to listen to in the morning are “Rock Steady” by Aretha Franklin, “Pusher Love Girl” by Justin Timberlake, “Shake It Out” by Florence + The Machine, and “Green Light” by John Legend and Andre 3000.

Obama’s night time playlist features Al Green’s “How Can You Mend A Broken Heart,” Lauryn Hill and D’Angelo’s “Nothing Even Matters,” Frank Sinatra’s “The Best Is Yet To Come,” and Joni Mitchell’s Help Me.”

Beyonce also made the cut for her song “Superpower,” with Frank Ocean. You’ll recall, Beyonce performed for Obama twice in 2013. The first time was his inauguration ceremony, where she sang the National Anthem, and then later that night when she performed Etta James’ “At Last” during the inaugural ball.

What do you think of President Obama’s Spotify playlist?

Kelly Rutherford is fighting back at claims she “kidnapped” her two young children when she failed to return them to their father in Monaco. As Gossip Cop reported, Rutherford and her ex-husband Daniel Giersch have been in a bitter custody battle over their children Hermes, 8, and Helena, 6, since 2009. The “Gossip Girl” actress has been in and out of court over the years trying to have her kids return to the U.S. and live with her.

Rutherford spent the summer in New York with her children, but was supposed to send them back to Monaco, where Giersch lives, last week. The actress, however, kept the children, leading some to accuse her of kidnapping. Earlier this week, a Manhattan judge ordered Rutherford to immediately send the kids back to their father.

“I think kidnapping is when no one knows where the children are,” said Rutherford on Friday’s “Good Morning America.” She added, “I was in communication. The kids were Skypeing with [Giersch] every day. I wrote him an email telling him exactly that nobody had jurisdiction in my country, and I was concerned until somebody gave me some order that said they were coming back.”

Rutherford said she’s still “trying to process” and “make sense” of the court’s decision to send her kids back to Monaco. “I just feel like their voices have not been heard,” explained Rutherford, adding, “I walked into a courtroom where everything felt like it was already done. It was a done deal.” She continued, “[Giersch’s] mother was sitting there with plane tickets, smiling, ready to take them. Nobody had heard our argument.”

As Gossip Cop previously noted, Rutherford is scheduled to fly to Monte Carlo next month for another custody hearing. The actress told “Good Morning America” she’s very happy with the courts in Monaco, but finds it “odd” how the U.S. has been handling her situation. “New York just sent them back. It was a very odd, you know, odd situation. I think that Monaco has been put in this position because of the decisions that have been made here in the U.S.”
