Source: Nicky Nelson/WENN.com / WENN Vince Staples let the world know that Ray J is a leader within the culture and it appears he’s using his status to help up his big homie. Reports say that the singer and entrepreneur is angling for a meeting with President Donald Trump in an attempt to pardon former Death Row Records boss, Suge Knight . Daily Mail exclusively reports : Sources tell DailyMailTV the 38-year-old Love & Hip Hop star has been lobbying for Trump to pardon rapper and friend Marion ‘Suge’ Knight, who was convicted of manslaughter in 2018. Knight, 54, was sentenced to 28 years behind bars for injuring Cle Sloan and killing Terry Carter after running over both men at a burger drive-thru in January 2015. He was originally facing 11 years in prison, but his sentence was later doubled under California’s three-strikes law based on his prior convictions. An additional six years was also added for using a vehicle as a deadly weapon in a ‘serious and violent’ felony. A source close to the singer says he is now hoping the president will pardon Knight for his crimes because he believes his friend has learned from his mistakes and is ready to turn over a new leaf. I mean this IS Ray J we’re talking about, so maybe he’ll have the touch to get Knight sprung from the joint. — Photo: WENN

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro has seemingly come up with an explanation for why he allegedly assaulted Jen Harley several weeks ago. In a new social media post, the polarizing Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star appears to address his violent ex-girlfriend and he appears to justify his recent behavior by basically saying the following: Hey, you did it first! As loyal readers likely know at this point, Ronnie was arrested in early October after he reportedly threatened Harley with a knife. He supposedly did this after the two got into an explosive argument and right before he swiped the occasional couple’s young daughter, Ariana, out of Harley hands. According to the police report filed at the time, Ronnie then locked himself inside of a home he and Harley were renting, refusing to open the door when the police arrived. The authorities therefore had to knock said door down and tase Ronnie in order to take him into custody. The reality star now faces one full year in prison after he was hit with seven misdemeanors , which include the following charges: One count of domestic violence. One count of brandishing a weapon. One count of child endangerment. One count of resisting arrest. Another count of resisting arrest. One count of willful and unlawful criminal threats. One count of false imprisonment. Ronnie has said very little in the wake of this scandal, although insiders close to the muscle-bound father claim he was just protecting Ariana and that Harley was actually the drunk one placing the toddler in danger. Now, however, it certainly appears as if Ronnie has something to say. Something very immature to say, we should emphasize. “First I treat you how I want to be treated. But then I treat you how you treat me,” Ronnie wrote this week, managing to both confuse followers and stir up a great deal of concern as well. Is Ronnie really trying to justify his behavior by stating that Harley abused him first? We mean, that is sort of accurate. Harley was arrested last year for dragging Ortiz-Magro down the street by her car and then also hurled a glass ashtray at his head this past New Year’s Eve. She was never charged with any crime, however, and obviously didn’t serve any jail time as a result. But still: You did it first is the kind of defense made by a second-grader, and certainly not something that should ever be said in the wake of an assault charge. Ronnie, meanwhile, seemed far more at peace with everything not long before writing out the above quote, writing: At some point you have to let go of what you think should happen and live in what’s happening. Every moment matters. Wherever you are, be all there. Enjoy it all. The point of power’s always in the present moment. Amen, Ronnie. Now go leave Harley alone and just be there for your kid, dude.

David Eason is dangerous and violent and capable of practically anything. This should not exactly read as a shocking statement to anyone familiar with the Teen Mom universe, considering the former reality star has admitted to SHOOTING AND KILLING HIS FAMILY’S BULLDOG . And yet: A new photo released by Eason himself perhaps drives this frightening point home as strongly as ever. The controversial homophobe shared a picture (above) on Thursday of himself and 11-year old daughter Maryssa at a local fair, captioning the image with the very basic: “It’s the fair!” It’s something, alright. Eason was obviously trying to paint himself as a responsible father by posting the snapshot, attempting to combat all the negative rumors that continue to float around the Internet about him, his attitude and his overall behavior. But the dude totally failed. “SHE LOOKS UNCOMFORTABLE,” one person commented,” while another simply left a one-word response we’re all thinking: “Scary.” “Drop her off at the fair,” read a third message from a concerned commenter. “Don’t go with her and her friend!!!” (If only.) And yet another Instagram user studied the expression on the young girl’s face and wrote: “Her eyes say it all.” “She’s not a happy young lady.” This comment actually prompted a response from Eason, who clapped back in his typically abhorrent fashion: “Are you speaking for yourself oooor does someone need to show you a mirror?” Eason, of course, is right smack dab back in the news these days. Jenelle Evans finally filed for divorce from her awful husband. Or, to be more specific, she finally told followers that she plans to file for divorce. “With time away from Teen Mom, I’ve started to look at my life differently and I know I need to make changes. I’m starting that now,” the former MTV star wrote on Instagram on October 31. Fans were left to wonder what she meant by this. But then Jenelle clarified: The kids and I have moved away from David. Nobody gets into a marriage expecting it to end but I know that’s what is best for me, and for my kids. Today I’ve filed papers to start that process. I appreciate the support from everybody who has asked how I am. Me and the kids are doing great. We need some time to be together, but you’ll hear from us again soon. We haven’t heard much from Evans since, with the major exception of her having just obtained a restraining order against Eason. For the time being, Davis is banned from getting close to either his estranged wife or any of Jenelle’s three kids, the youngest of whom she shares with Eason. Maryssa, for those wondering, if Eason’s child from a previous relationship. She’s often forgotten about when websites report on all this drama – but she’s only 11 years old and is stuck with Eason as her dad and is deserving of our sympathy and attention. On Tuesday, meanwhile, Eason wrote on Facebook that he would be filing a missing persons report with the police because Evans and daughter Ensley “disappeared,” prompting Jenelle to seek this temporary restraining order against Eason. She was granted the order, and the filings revealed that Eason’s threats have against her “escalated” over the past few days. It takes a lot for us to feel bad for Jenelle Evans, but Eason has managed to pull it off of late with his general terribleless. “Because of his recent threats, his history of violence, his erratic behavior and his large stockpile of weapons, I am scared for my life and my children’s well-being,” Jenelle wrote in her recent legal papers. Poor Maryssa, you guys. Can someone please help get her away from her dad? View Slideshow: Jenelle Evans: David Eason Threatened to Kill Me! I’ve Got the Receipts!
As the saying goes, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Vanderpump Rules Season 8 doesn't debut on Bravo until January 7, but a new trailer released today reveals that the show is attempting a tricky balancing act by mixing some fresh new faces with the SURvers we already know and … well, love is a strong word. Tolerate, maybe? Anyway, most reality shows start showing signs of age around the season-8 mark, which is probably why producers decided to inject some new blood into the proceedings. But the OG cast claims they brought plenty of drama in their own right over the summer — in fact, they say this is the show's most dramatic season yet. Given what we've learned so far — and the fact that fans are already calling for Jax Taylor to be fired — we're inclined to believe them. Check out our full breakdown of VPR S8 trailer, along with the latest on the intense feud between Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute: 1. Lisa Breaks It Down You know sh-t is about to get real when the trailer opens with Lisa Vanderpump explaining that sh-t is about to get real. 2. What Lies Ahead Before we proceed any further check out this newly-released footage from Vanderpump Season 8 and decide for yourself if the histrionic tone is justified. 3. The Post-Mortem It’s a lot to take in. But are we really in for some explosive drama, or is this compelling trailer just the result of clever editing? And who are all those new faces? Let’s dissect this thing scene-by-scene, shall we? 4. Back When Bros Were Bros Hazy flashbacks? A slowed-down, hyper-dramatic version of the theme song? Is this a new season of Vanderpump Rules or is Game of Thrones coming back to TV for a do-over? 5. Bro, No You Didn’t! Looks like Jax Taylor is pissed at Tom Sandoval. Is Jax just deflecting and gas-lighting because HE got caught doing something terrible again? Yes, but we’ll have to wait until January to officially confirm that. 6. The Sandoval Sob Yes, the Tears of Sandoval will once again make an appearance this season. Probably several appearances, in fact. View Slideshow
In September, Mike Sorrentino was finally freed from prison , and was able to reunite with his wife and friends. Jersey Shore: Family Vacation 's cameras were there to capture it all, and it's all part of this teaser trailer for the new season. On top of that, the trailer teases tears, a consultation with a psychic, and some diametrically opposed parties. The teaser trailer begins with a shocking moment as Snooki “Who do you call? 911? Oh, my God!” she asks while kneeling in the grass. We then see Deena Cortese weeping openly, though the context remains unknown. Deena says: “I won’t be able to live with myself.” Viewers are then shown Angelina Pavarnick running, and it's presumably not to fellate an orange buffoon . This is when Pauly D is heard saying: “Where's Angelina? She's an EMT.” Vinny then says that what happened was just an “accident” and assures Deena that she “had no control over it.” So it sounds like someone — possibly not a human, given some odd reacitons — was injured or killed. Maybe a bird? In a presumably unrelated moment, the gang seeks advice from a psychic woman. Some of her advice elicits a positive reaction, but not everything goes over well. We then see this same psychic speaking to Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, giving him some secondhand advice. “The spirit made me feel like if you don’t make this happen, then it’s not gonna end well,” she tells him. Then it's time for Jenni to celebrate her divorce. Divorce parties are mostly just a thing for reality stars, if largely because regular people getting divorced seldom have a budget for a party. But she even wears a tiara as her friends toast the end of the marriage. They all hop aboard what Pauly D refers to as a “DTF Wagon” as they party in town and go clubbing. On the flip side, the trailer shows the mounting hype for Angelina to marry fiance Chris Larangeira. We even get a sneak peek at her wedding dress. Deena and Snooki join Angelina to party it up in New Orleans to celebrate what's coming. Notably, we don't see JWoww involved, though with the kind of heavyhanded editing that teaser trailers get, that could mean anything. Celebrating one friend's divorce and another's impending nuptials in a single season is not lost on the gang. “If I’m DJing her wedding,” Pauly D vows. “I’m not giving her the divorce party for free.” Well, in that case, let us hope that Angelina has many years to save up. It is admittedly awkward to cheer for two diametrically opposed milestones, but that's life. Here's where things get exciting — and emotional. Lauren Sorrentino picks up her husband, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, from prison. He not only reunited with his wife, but with his friends, whom he had sorely missed while behind bars. “Life could get no better,” Mike gushes to the camera. (Awwww!) We're all so thrilled to see Mike back with his wife and friends and loved ones, where he belongs.
Ronnie Ortiz-Magro did something unexpected on Friday morning: He wore a suit. The troubled Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star then went ahead and did something far more expected: He pleaded not guilty in court. Ronnie was front and center in Los Angeles today, standing before a judge for his arraignment, during which time he entered his not guilty plea to the seven misdemeanors he’s facing from last month’s arrest. Just to review, they are: Domestic violence. Child endangerment. Brandishing a weapon. Criminal threats. False imprisonment. Two counts of resisting arrest. If convicted across the board, Ronnie could face years in prison . Jen Harley was not present for the hearing. This ordeal stems from Ronnie’s arrest in very early October, an ugly event that concluded with Ronnie being tased — yes, tased! — by the police after he refused to surrender. And that incident followed Ortiz-Magro allegedly threatening Harley with a knife , prior to stealing the former couple’s daughter out of her arms and barrcading himself into a house. According to Harley, Ronnie partly acted this way because he was high on cocaine at the time. Harley also has said she suffered injuries from this attack — and subsequent photos of her, snapped days after the altercation, did reveal a few bruises. Moreover, there’s surveillance footage from a neighbor’s security camera that depicts Jen holding little Ariana and looking very panicked, running around and trying to hide. It’s pretty damning if you’re Ronnie or a Ronnie supporter, we’ve gotta be honest. As part of Friday’s hearing, the city attorney also requested a temporary protective order for Harley and the toddler… and a judge approved this request. (A previous protective order was lifted just a week after the altercation, which is why you’ve seen many photos of Ronnie and Ariana on Instagram of late.) Ronnie will return to court on November 12. He hasn’t really spoken out yet on this arrest or the aftermath. But Ronnie did check into rehab in January to deal with anxiety, depression and alcohol abuse, making it look like he had turned a huge corner in his life. We were so very happy for him at the time. However, multiple outlets reported over the summer that he had started boozing and then now Harley claims he’s also doing hard drugs. Troubling stuff. Let’s hope he gets the help he so clearly needs.
