 And good afternoon, I’m Gio Benitez. Here are the top four stories buzzing online right now before the end of 2014. 

 
Coming in at No. 4, Adele is known for her songs about heartbreak, but the Grammy winner is making aloud and clear that she isn't writing any break-up anthems1 about her partner Simon Konecki. The singer took the Twitter and to wish her funs a happy new year and to dismiss any rumours2, declaring that she and Simon are “still very much together. Don’t believe what you read.” It’s an unusually public statement from the famously private star and we, of course, are happy to hear it. 
 
And No. 3 right now, if you are looking for some inspiration when you are setting your fitness goals for 2015, then look no further in Joy-Anna Duggar. Star of 19 Kids and Counting. Here she is, absolutely killing3 it in a weights room, a parallel squatting4. Check that out: 145 pounds! That’s tough for even me. She makes it look so easy. Victor’s sister Jessa posted this video on Instagram, declaring that Joy-Anna was “tear it up with a new personal best.” And now she clearly did it. Have any second helping5 at Christmas dinner or maybe it’s good because she’s able to do that, right?
 
Coming in at No. 2 right now, a Christmas wish has come true for a little boy named Evan. The seven-year-old’s finally helped him set up a GoPro camera on Christmas Eve and he managed to capture a video of Santa delivering presents to his house. Take a look. 
 
Evan’s video. Evan has gone wildly viral. It’s now been viewed on YouTube more than 4.5 million times. Let’s just hope Evan is on the naughty list for catching6 Santa at work. All right and he wasn't worried about catching Santa. 
 
A zoo in the UK has received a very cute Christmas gift with the arrival of a rare baby giraffe. Her name is Zahra, which means flower in Swahili. She might only be a week old, but she’s apparently7 six feet tall and confident on her two long legs there, four long legs. Zahra’s species is endangered with around only 1,000 left in the wild, but Zahra's already doing a great job of raising awareness8 about conservation with an adorable response to the media, sticking out her tongue at those cameras. 
 
Be sure to tune9 in GMA for more pop news tomorrow for ABC News. I’m Gio Benitez in NY. Have a great day.
