Now in totally creepy news that makes me glad not to live in the small U.K. town of Northampton, there’s a loitering clown that likes to stand on street corners and stare at random passersby. The unidentified bozo first appeared on Friday the 13th and looks like he just walked off the set of Stephen King’s It.

The strange stranger has appeared in several areas of town, always with the same red wig, white face makeup, all-in-one jumpsuit, and oversized bowtie. Occasionally he carries a clown teddy. 

He doesn’t do any of the fun clown things like ride a tiny bicycle or juggle or make balloon sculptures. He just ... stares. One woman reported that he knocked on her door and offered to paint her windowsills, even though he had no paint or brushes. She reported the suspicious behavior to the police.

Although he first appeared less than a week ago, the Northampton Clown has over 77,000 ‘likes’ on his Facebook page, where he tries to dispel the rumors that he’s carrying a knife.

Word to the wise: If you have to dispel rumors that you’re a knife wielding maniac because of how you’re dressed ... you might want to change clothes.

Ok, so it’s probably not illegal to look like a sociopath about to go on a murdering rampage while laughing maniacally in a scary clown costume, but what kind of person gets off on making people uncomfortable at best, and frightening them at worst?

Heck, a random guy standing on street corners staring at people is creepy enough. Put him in a clown suit? Unbearable.

Are you creeped out by the Northampton Clown, or is it all in good fun?

Robert Pattinson's Visit to Sick Kids in Hospital Makes Us Fall Even More in Love With Him

You guyyyssss! He may be a major Hollywood hottie who's all kinds of sexy and mysterious -- but after hearing that Robert Pattinson visited the Children's Hospital in Los Angeles to brighten the day for some young fans, it's impossible not to be even more crazy about him.

He went to the hospital and surprised the patients by doing arts and crafts with them (OMG, he's crafty), and he also signed autographs and took pics with the kids.

And now we're all wondering where in the heck he's been hiding this softer, more human side of himself (no vampire pun intended.)

Even though many of us love and adore Rob, he does tend to come off as a bit standoffish and cold at times when he's out and about in public. He seems like the type who keeps to himself and doesn't like to put too much of his private life on display -- but who knew he had such a kind, selfless, caring personality underneath his stunning good looks?!?

He really needs to think about letting this side come out a little more often -- not that we actually need a reason to adore him anymore than we already do.

Can you even imagine how thrilled those children must have been? And it's not like he's some random celebrity they've never heard of -- he's like, a really, really big deal.

Hmm. I hate to say it, but maybe breaking up with Kristen Stewart was the best thing that ever happened to Rob, especially if being on his own somehow prompted him to make such a thoughtful gesture towards those kids.

(Keep it up, Rob. The whole do-gooder thing really looks good on you.)

Are you surprised that Rob has such a great heart?

Kanye Supposedly Begged Kim Kardashian's 'Frenemy' Beyonce to Visit Baby North

England has its royal family, and we have ours: Bey and Hova. And a visit from them is about the most exciting thing that could happen to anyone, even a Kardashian. Well, that happened. A couple days ago, Beyonce and Jay Z visited Kim Kardashian and Baby North. They stepped down from their gilded cloud long enough to spend a couple hours with Kanye's family, a privilege that no doubt thrilled the Kardashians. (Kanye was not around to enjoy the visit -- he's apparently in Milan at the moment.)

Can you imagine? And yet, there are those who would pooh pooh the grand occasion. Rumor has it that Beyonce cannot abide Kim, and visited only under duress, at the insistence of Kanye. Really? Come on. Even if there's a little truth to that rumor, I think Bey and Jay Z would want to see their friend Kanye's baby anyway.

And if Kim gets on Beyonce's nerves, I think having a little baby around would neutralize that. Beyonce could focus on North, giving Kim motherly advice and cooing over how cute North is. Babies are a well-known tool for a detente. As long as you keep the visit short and slip out before they get fussy, the baby visit can be a great peace-making opportunity.

Besides, how annoying could Kim really be to Beyonce? Maybe they just didn't have that much to talk about before. Well, they do now. Kim and Beyonce can bond as fellow mothers -- or, failing that, they can at least swap stories and photos. (We hear Bey and Jay Z didn't bring Blue Ivy, which was probably a smart move.)

Plus they sent Baby North some insanely lavish gifts -- Dior baby booties and a silver engraved Elsa Peretti Padova baby set. Now why would you spend around $7,000 on a baby and not want to also visit that baby and her mother, too? I think the feud is overblown, and I see a friendly relationship brewing between the two families.

Do you think Beyonce and Jay Z visited Kim and North because they wanted to, or because they "had" to?
