No matter how you slice it, sometimes our dads can be pretty <strong>awesome</strong> and provide us with some <strong>serious wisdom</strong>. Whether or not we actually use the advice they give us is another story, but it&#8217;s the thought that counts.</p><p>With <strong>Father&#8217;s Day</strong> coming up, we thought it would be a great idea to list some of our <strong>favorite dads from TV and movies</strong>. Of course, we don&#8217;t have enough room for all of the great dads, but consider the ones who didn&#8217;t make the list as honorable mentions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Marlin from <em>Finding Nemo</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/K7bNhYr3ves" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Marlon swam the entire sea for Nemo, and I&#8217;m pretty sure this scene left me in tears when I saw it in theatres. This scene really doesn&#8217;t get old.</p><p><strong>Uncle Phil from <em>Fresh Prince of Bel-Air</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oSKyaXkzVvc" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p><em>The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air</em> is one of my all time favorite sitcoms, and Uncle Phil is probably my favorite dad (next to my own, that is). He supplied his nephew Will with a lot of tough love, but he was always there for him when push came to shove.</p><p><strong>Danny Tanner from <em>Full House</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/saWoFpOly7U" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>I&#8217;m pretty sure that there was a touching moment between Danny Tanner and his daughters at the end of every episode of <em>Full House</em>. Sure, they were usually pretty cheesy but it was always the best kind of cheese.</p><p><strong>Phil Dunphy from <em>Modern Family</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MjxkwEjEVo0" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Dads who think they&#8217;re cool usually aren&#8217;t, and Phil is no exception. But he&#8217;s still one of our faves.</p><p><strong>Sam McGuire from <em>Lizzie McGuire</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/173WQYdwdCI#t=19m42s" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Sam McGuire dad was always pretty goofy and aloof, but that never detracted him from showing some serious love and support for his kids.</p><p><strong>Sandy Cohen from <em>The OC</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7IKN5VqgLzk" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>A modern classic, the OC&#8217;s Seth Cohen is probably one of the most down to earth lawyers that I&#8217;ve ever seen. Come on, he&#8217;d have to be to take in a trouble-making kid and treat him as his own.</p><p><strong>Red Forman from <em>That 70s Show</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KM_NAw3LrgY" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Red Foreman doesn&#8217;t exactly come across as a caring father about 99.9% of the time, but in the end his strictness stems from some serious love for his kids. And hey, at least he told his son that he loved him that one time&#8230;</p><p><strong>Sandy Koufax from <em>Big Daddy</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/nEDLGQ7qxwI" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>For some strange reason, I was obsessed with this movie as a kid. While Adam Sandler&#8217;s dysfunctional time as a temporary dad was funny and heartwarming, the most important lesson that I took away from this film was a little trick about bent cans.</p><p><strong>Coach Taylor from <em>Friday Night Lights</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Dc7kMy3-EOo" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Nothing destroys me faster than big ol&#8217; super manly men have heart to hearts with their daughters. Moments between Coach Taylor and his daughter Julie are perfect examples of this. My heart!</p><p><strong>Cliff Huxtable from <em>The Cosby Show</em></strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/K6gaXR4yisE" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Cliff Huxtable. Enough said. He was the quintessential parent of the 80s, and I still wish that I could cop all of his sweaters.</p><p><strong>Who are some of your favorite dads from TV and movies?

As <a
href="http://www.gurl.com/2013/04/26/big-boobs-breasts-bra-clothes/" target="_blank">I&#8217;ve said before</a>, I know this from experience. My boobs aren&#8217;t huge, but even as a 36D, I know that finding a bathing suit that doesn&#8217;t feel like it&#8217;s going to reveal my girls at any minute is hard. Also,<strong> it&#8217;s expensive!</strong> I&#8217;m super jealous of my friends who can run into Target and come out 10 minutes later with a $30 bikini. I have to <strong>order mine</strong> online and spend a good amount of money on them.</p><p>And for sizes larger than a D or DD, it&#8217;s <strong>even more difficult.</strong> Most of the bathing suits for large breasts tend to look like bras or are really boring. But don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re doomed if you have <strong>big boobs</strong> &#8211; there are suits out there that are comfortable! I&#8217;ve rounded up some of the best bathing suits for girls with big boobs. Yeah, they&#8217;re a little <strong>pricey</strong>, but sometimes feeling comfy and happy with how you look at the beach is worth the money! Check &#8216;em out and report back to us if you try them out.</p><div

id="description_1"><h2>Sunset Separates Heaven: Underwire Sweetheart Halter Top</h2>If you're looking for a bikini top that gives you a ton of coverage, go for this one. Notice the sides? You can kiss side-boob (that gets especially bad when you lie down) goodbye. The bright color is so pretty and the sweetheart neckline will flatter your bust.<P></P> <a

id="description_2"><h2>Everything But Water: Underwire Bra Tankini</h2>I love this tankini option - the color is so fun and bright and the top gives a lot of coverage without looking like it should belong to a grandma.<p></P> <a

id="description_3"><h2>Athleta Montego Shirred Bra Cup Bikini</h2>If you're planning on playing some beach volleyball or jumping around in the water, get this bathing suit. It fits more like a sports bra and the double straps in the back will hold you up. Plus, the pattern is so cute!<P></P> <a

id="description_4"><h2>Cleo by Panache: Pippa UW Balconnet Bikini</h2>I'm in love with this suit. I think everything about it is awesome - the pattern, the cut, the the color, everything! In case you can't see, there's a sailboat pattern! This offers great support, while also keeping you from spilling out.<p></p> <a

id="description_5"><h2>Freya: Sunset Boulevard Halter Swimwear Top</h2>Who says bikinis for large-busted girls have to be boring? With the little ruffles, polka dots and bright color, this one is adorable. The plunge will show off a little cleavage, while the halter strap will give lots of support.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.barenecessities.com/freya-sunset-boulevard-halter-swimwear-top-as3580_product.htm?pf_id=FreyaAS3580&search=30GG&manual_cm_sp=SlotLocation-_-R1C1-_-FreyaAS3580">Available up to size 36H (in UK sizes) or K (US Size) from BareNecessities.com</a></span><span
id="description_6"><h2>Panache: Silhouette Shaping UW Swimsuit</h2>Not into two-piece bathing suits? This black suit from Panache should be your number one choice. It's very figure-flattering while still giving you great support. Sometimes a black suit can be a girl's best friend!<p></P> <a
href="http://www.lindasonline.com/panache-silhouette-shaping-underwire-one-piece-swimsuit-sw0790-black.html">Available up to size 40HH from LindasOnline.com</a></span><span

id="description_8"><h2>Victoria's Secret The Gorgeous Swim Collection: Push-Up Bandeau Top</h2>Finding a bathing suit that fits a large bust is hard enough, but finding a strapless? Ugh. I hate tan lines, so I've always been searching for the perfect strapless and I have to say, I love this one. It doesn't go up very high in size, but for my size, I think it gives great support. It doesn't turn my boobs into one huge uni-boob and it also lifts them up - because sometimes, bigger breasts tend to sag, you know?<P></p> <a

id="description_10"><h2>Freya: Pier Plunge Bikini Swimwear Top</h2>I love this cute polka dot bikini. It's simple without being boring and offers great support. It also shows off just enough skin so that you can be sexy without looking like you're trying to shove your boobs in everyone's face.<P></p> <a

id="description_12"><h2>Midnight Grace By Figleaves.Com: Heidi Underwired Halter Swimsuit</h2>My favorite part about this one-piece bathing suit is that the strap can be taken off. So, maybe you want to wear it when you're walking around for more support - but when you lay down, you can take it off so you don't get any tan lines! With the underwire inside, you can't go wrong.<P></P> <a

id="description_13"><h2>Panache: Lola Bikini Swimwear Top</h2>My sister owns this bathing suit, so I can vouch for how great it looks in person. The charm embellishments make what could be a boring suit a lot more fun. The plunge also isn't too deep, so you show off a little without feeling like you're going to fall out.<p></p> <a
href="http://www.herroom.com/panache-sw0721-lola-bikini-swim-top.shtml">Available up to size 38G from HerRoom.com</a></span><span
id="description_14"><h2>Cleo by Panache: Lucille Bandeau Swimwear Top</h2>I'm obsessed with this bathing suit. It has a lot of support, is well-lined, gives you support for side-boob and just looks really adorable.<p></p> <a

href="http://www.gurl.com/videos/funny-videos/funny-things-kids-say-dad-talks-to-daughter-video/" title="Dad Reenacts Conversations Between Him And His 2-Year-Old Daughter">Dads are the <strong>greatest</strong></a>, and we <strong>love </strong>them so much. But they are pretty much <strong>impossible </strong>to shop for because if they want something, they&#8217;ll just <strong>go </strong>out and get it. They have <strong>everything </strong>they need, so really what are you <strong>supposed </strong>to get them?</p><p>I think dads get <strong>tired </strong>of receiving <strong>ties </strong>as gifts, and I like to think <strong>outside the box</strong> when it comes to presents anyway. Not to mention, anytime I got my dad something <strong>pricey</strong>, he&#8217;d get <strong>upset </strong>that I spent that kind of money on him. Plus, dads love <strong>handmade </strong>things.</p><p>I&#8217;ve <strong>rounded up </strong>some awesome <strong>affordable </strong>gifts and some <strong>DIYs</strong> that you can give your dad this Sunday. <strong>Click through and see what you can get for your pops!</strong></p><p><br

Our <strong>favorite </strong>kid duo had tea with <strong>LL Cool J </strong>on <strong><em>The Ellen Show</em> </strong>during another edition of Tea Time with Sophia Grace and Rosie. It&#8217;s <strong>hilarious </strong>just seeing LL Cool J sit and drink <strong>tea </strong>with two little girls. It&#8217;s also hilarious to watch them <strong>giggle </strong>the entire time. They ask him all kinds of <strong>questions</strong>, and I think all <strong>three </strong>of them should create a show together. Also, Sophia Grace <strong>raps </strong>some of LL&#8217;s music. <a

And while you don&#8217;t <strong>need </strong>to wear makeup to the <strong>beach </strong>or the <strong>pool</strong>, you may want a <strong>little </strong>bit on here and there if you feel like it.</p><p>I&#8217;ll throw on some <strong>liner </strong>and a <strong>splash </strong>of color before hitting the beach. That&#8217;s <strong>totally </strong>fine. But it <strong>sucks </strong>when you get in the <strong>water </strong>or you just get <strong>sweaty </strong>and end up with makeup <strong>everywhere</strong>. This happens whether you&#8217;re <strong>swimming </strong>or just <strong>walking </strong>around town!</p><p>This is where <strong>waterproof </strong>cosmetics come in. They&#8217;re <strong>not </strong>meant for everyday use, but they get the job done when you&#8217;re <strong>out and about.</strong></p><p><strong>Click through for my favorite waterproof products for summer!</strong></p><div

When I was younger I&#8217;d stay up late in the summertime and watch all the <strong>raunchy</strong> videos on MTV and BET&#8211;yes, this was back when they actually played music videos&#8211;and so many songs and music videos have stuck with me since then. I&#8217;m pretty sure my parents had no idea that I was watching women shaking their butts at 1 AM but whatever, I turned out okay. Well, sorta okay.</p><p>Anyway, one night I realized just how many hip hop videos of that era took place on beautiful <strong>beaches</strong>. I mean, this was back when record labels actually had the money to plop their artists on a South American beach and use a ton of helicopters and speed boats without including a really blatant product places. You know, back in the good ol&#8217; days.</p><p>So here&#8217;s a roundup of our favorite <strong>beach themed hip hop videos</strong> from the 90s and early 00s.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Angie Martinez, Lil Kim, Left Eye, Da Brat &amp; Missy Elliott &#8211; Ladies Night</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/bAvLi-gIymg" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Okay, this is seriously one of the best female hip hop collaborations in the history of collaborations. Flawless.</p><p><strong>Jagged Edge featuring Nelly &#8211; Where The Party At</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9UCY_U4QwqI" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>I remember watching this music video so much in the summer of 2001 that I wanted to throw my television out the window. But 12 years later, I&#8217;ve found it in my heart to appreciate its cheesiness. And you gotta love the early 00s fashion (by love I mean &#8220;yikes!&#8221;)</p><p><strong>Sisqo &#8211; Thong Song</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Oai1V7kaFBk" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Classic. Enough said.</p><p><strong>The Notorious B.I.G. &#8211; Hypnotize</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/glEiPXAYE-U" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>One question: Can you imagine a music video like this today? With high speed chases and a ton of helicopters? If so, can you imagine it without a giant Pepsi advertisement in every frame? Didn&#8217;t think so.</p><p><strong>JAY-Z &#8211; Big Pimpin&#8217;</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Cgoqrgc_0cM" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Mr. Beyonce Knowles before he was Mr. Beyonce Knowles.</p><p><strong>Ja Rule ft. Christina Milian - Between Me &amp; You </strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/P2yJJGA5Fys" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>But where&#8217;s Ja Rule now? That&#8217;s what I want to know. <em>Where&#8217;s Ja?</em></p><p><strong>Wreckx-n-Effect &#8211; Rumpshaker</strong></p><p><iframe

P. Diddy &amp; Murphy Lee &#8211; Shake Ya Tailfeather</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JkXrEUeULmc" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Remember when songs from an upcoming blockbuster would have clips from the movie in the music video? I mean, I don&#8217;t miss those days but they, you know, happened. This video is a great example of that awkward era.</p><p><strong>Snoop Dogg Ft. Pharrell &#8211; Beautiful</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_FE194VN6c4" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>Let me just note that this video was made 10 years ago. Pharrell looks exactly the same today. The man just refuses to age.</p><p><strong>Salt-N-Pepa &#8211; Shoop</strong></p><p><iframe
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4vaN01VLYSQ" height="315" width="420" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></p><p>I saved the best for last. Look, this may not be set in the sandy beaches of Brazil or Florida (try Coney Island), but it&#8217;s got some down-to-earth charm about it. And I have a lot of love in my heart for videos that turn the male gaze on its head so that the men are the objectified, scantily clad ones for once. Call it a double standard all you want, but while you do that I&#8217;m going to replay this video over and over again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Which of these songs has you dancing in your seat?
