NASA took technology out of the box (and space) this year with breathtaking images from space. Now the space agency says images of Dubai, Egypt and Iran are among the best. 

In 2016, NASA unleashed a torrent of images taken by astronauts onto social media. 

And now, as the year comes to an end, they've picked out 16 of their favorites. 

Space photos of Egypt, Dubai and Iran were among those. 

Ever since Britney Spear's new music video "Slumber Party" premiered, people have been going crazy over the Iranian guy in the video, Sam Asghari.

While it's not confirmed that they're dating, people have fallen in love with him and have taken to stalking his Instagram profile. 

The rumors started flying when they posted an Instagram photo together. Apparently is the equivalent of a marriage proposal in the celebrity world. 

This was posted on Asghari's Instagram, but was later deleted after an inappropriate comment was apparently made (touchy touchy). 

Now we know, whenever an A-List celebrity like Britney starts dating someone, it becomes more newsworthy than say...a massacre in the developing world. 

Is it just me or are people taking it way too far?

This was seen on a "14 things to know about Sam Asghari" list on Cosmopolitan... 

I think it's a great achievement that a model takes the time to visit the less fortunate like the dentist. 

Sam immigrated to the US from Iran nine years ago. Amazingly, he still writes and reads Farsi. Even more amazingly, he does his writing with an authentic quill pen. 

I like the fact that someone was able to capture him in his element. Such dedication in those eyes. 

Even Buzzfeed has joined in. Everyone has basically started dating Britney's new boyfriend in their mind. 

Is it just me who doesn't get this Internet sensation? 

I mean, he's hot but he also seems to be allergic to a shirt at the gym... and just like every other beefcake out there.
