These Bachelor Contestants Just Left the Show… for Each Other!

Posted on September 24, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We’re very sorry, Chris Harrison. But we’re calling you out already. The next time you say that viewers are in for THE MOST DRAMATIC ROSE CEREMONY IN BACHELOR HISTORY, you will be lying. Yes, we can say this with authority right now. Because THE MOST DRAMATIC ROSE CEREMONY IN BACHELOR HISTORY has already happened. The Vietnamese version of this long-running hit reality series has gone viral across the entire universe because a pair of contestants – Minh Thu and Truc Nhu – recently decided they did not want to pursue a relationship with star Nguyen Quoc Trung. Why? Because they had already found love… with each other! “I went into this competition to find love,” Thu said to Trung during the aforementioned, mind-boggling, stunning rose ceremony. She then explained/teased: “I’ve found that love for myself, but it isn’t with you. It’s with someone else.” And it was someone else Trung knew well. Upon making her admission, a clearly emotional Thu walked over to Nhu and gave her a long hug, much to the total and complete surprise of the other contestants. “Come home with me,” Thu said more than once to Nhu, who later approached Trung and said the following: “I’m sorry. I really wanted to get to know you because you’re someone who made me feel special and I haven’t felt that way in a long time.” The Bachelor was taken aback, according to those who watched this episode (it’s still sitting on our DVR), but managed to respond: “I want to ask: If you decide this, would you feel regretful? This doesn’t change my decision. I’m not going to give this rose to anyone else. You only get one chance in this life, and you need to take it. Only you, not anyone else. “I want to let you know that I think you’ll have regret if you continue with what you are about to say.” This plea, however, fell on deaf ears. Or, to be more accurate perhaps, it fell on a heart that already been captured by a fellow contestant. “I know you’ll find someone who really loves you, who understands you, who knows how to take care of you, who can look at you from afar and know how you’re feeling,” she told him. “I’m sorry.” The two women then walked out of the ceremony together. UPDATE : Wait! The Asian news website NextShark now reports that Nhu chose to come back to the show after another conversation with Trung. She reportedly said: “I’ve changed my mind to accept this rose and continue this journey.” Okay, well. That certainly makes this story a tad bit less interesting. But it doesn’t change the drama of the rose ceremony itself! View Slideshow: The Bachelor Secrets Exposed: Affairs, Herpes & More!

Kim Kardashian Often Finds Kanye Annoying AF Just Like the Rest of Us

Posted on September 24, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Outside of a certain cotton candy-haired McDonald’s and bigotry enthusiast, it’s hard to think of a more divisive public figure than Kanye West. Even his fans often find themselves rolling their eyes at Yeezy as he waxes philosophical about everything from his sneaker collection to the ” dragon energy ” he shares with Donald Trump. Kanye’s rants range from amusing to appalling (It’s gonna be a long time before he lives down those ” slavery was a choice ” comments.), but generally, even his most baffling remarks are tolerable, as we only have to deal with the man in small doses. The same can’t be said for Kim Kardashian. The Wests might not spend as much time together as your average married couple, but Kim still has a whole lot of Yeezy in her life. And when Kanye flies off the handle or simply makes a big announcement without consulting her first — such as when he announced last week that he’s moving to Chicago — Kim is often forced into damage control mode. Not surprisingly, it seems she’s beginning to grow tired of cleaning up her husband’s messes. “Kanye has always been like this. He has a million things on his mind that he wants to accomplish and create,” a source close to the couple tells People magazine. “Though one can see it as being very passionate, it can still be overwhelming for Kim.” Yes, as much as she’s relished offering up her private life for public consumption over the years, even Kim draws the line at sharing future plans with TMZ before they can be discussed as a family. “She doesn’t necessarily love when people now keep asking her if she is moving to Chicago and she has to explain to everyone what’s going on,” says the insider. “It can be exhausting” Fortunately, as F. Scott Fitzgerald famously remarked, the rich are different from you and me. And thus, Kim and Kanye have the luxury of spending large quantities of time in different states. “When it comes to their living situation, Kim and Kanye have had a long distance marriage in the past,” the source adds. “She isn’t concerned about this. “She spent a lot of time in L.A. while Kanye was in Jackson Hole for his album. Chicago will be the same — Kim and the kids will join Kanye when they can and then Kim will be in L.A. when she needs to.” This has been “being fabulously wealthy makes literally everything easier and better,” exhibit 900 bajillion.

Babyface Says Bobby Brown Originally Hated “Don’t Be Cruel”

Posted on September 6, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Earl Gibson/BET / Getty There’s a lot of history between Bobby Brown and Babyface. In 1986, Bobby was on top of the world. He had just parted ways with New Edition and released his solo debut, King of Stage under MCA Records.  In 1987, Bobby began working on his second album, Don’t Be Cruel , with two young R&B songwriters and producers, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds and Antonio “L.A.” Reid. Unbeknownst to the general public, he wasn’t really feeling them. We found out a little bit more about this during part one of BET’s The Bobby Brown Story . In the film, we see that Bobby Brown wants an edgier approach to music. He’s introduced to Babyface and L.A. Reid and is instantly skeptical. Their appearance nor their catalog really fit the energy Bobby was trying to achieve. Baby Face and L.A. Reid were fairly new to the scene and although they’ve reached some success of their own, Bobby Brown was skeptical that they’d be able to bring the level of success he was looking for. In fact, according to Babyface, as they worked on “Don’t Be Cruel”, the album’s lead single, he admits that Bobby Brown absolutely hated it. We spoke exclusively to Babyface who told us about his first time meeting Bobby Brown in the studio. “I think ‘Don’t Be Cruel’ might’ve been the first song we did,” said Babyface. “We were just trying to learn each other at that particular point. He didn’t love the song so it wasn’t like he was really into it. It took a little more work to get it done, I think. We got that one done and as other songs started to come in, I think he liked the other songs a little bit better.” According to The Bobby Brown Story , Bobby was very adamant about working with Teddy Riley, and he did for his new jack swing laced second single “My Prerogative.”  The track went on to earn Bobby his first number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and become the second-biggest single of 1989. In the end, all five singles from the Don’t Be Cruel  album also reached the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. Babyface wrote and/or produced 6 of the 11 songs on the album. Check out the rest of our exclusive interview with Bobby Brown up top! Don’t forget to watch the conclusion of The Bobby Brown Story tonight on BET.

Selena Gomez Teases "Very Honest" New Album!

Posted on August 16, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Selena Gomez is so much more than the queen of Instagram .  In the video that we have included with this post, Selena confirms that her new album is in the works, though it's not quite finished yet. She even teases some details about her new songs. This is, if you'll pardon our pun, music to the ears of fans. Across multiple videos on Instagram, including some guest appearances with friends, Selena confirmed that she's working on a new album. This will be a follow-up to Revival , which debuted in 2015. Selena teases a few details about the nature of the album. “It’s very honest,” Selena says. “But playful.” “And,” Selena continues. “I felt like creatively it is in a really great direction,” Selena discusses the inspiration for this album. “I just wanted it to feel like what is going on in my head,” she admits. “Which,” Selena admits. “Was a lot.” Revival came on the heels of her revelation that she had been undergoing chemo as part of her battle with Lupus. Since then, Selena has undergone a life-saving kidney transplant. We imagine that she has no shortage of personal inspiration for her music. For many artists, art is how they process and cope. As you will see in the video that we have included, Selena's friend shoots down her efforts to reveal more about the album. The friend even refuses to name a track from it, despite Selena's emphatic permission to do so. “I’m just so anxious because I want to play my music,” Selena admits. Selenators, of course, are also very eager to hear it. Selena tells her fans and followers: “I can’t wait for you guys to hear it.” She is usure of how to describe some of her music without revealing too much. Her friend Raquelle says: “I like the fun ones that we can dance to.” Plenty of Selenators agree, but you don't need to have listened to Selena's new, unfinishe album to know that. That describes a lot of good music that Selena has produced over the years. “I’m just anticipating like what,” Selena says. “I don’t know what people are going to think.” “Like,” Selena says, voicing her concerns. “Do you think they are going to think it is the same thing?” That anxiety sounds very normal for any artist. Obviously, we're all incredibly pumped about Ariana Grande's Sweetener dropping on Thursday night. But contrary to what some hardcore fans — both Selenators and Arianators — seem to believe, it is possible and even ideal to enjoy music by both artists. Selena has dropped a couple of singles since Revival , but as much as we enjoy “Wolves,” having a whole album to consume will be a lot of fun. Selena, who just turned 26 in July, has produced some bops over the years — from “Naturally” to “Stars Dance” to “Kill 'Em With Kindness.” We can barely contain our excitement for whatever she comes up with next. Selena is one of the most talented singers in human history.

Travis Scott Under Fire For Deleting Trans Model From Album Art

Posted on August 4, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Travis Scott’s new album, Astroworld , came out on Friday. With it, of course, came the album art. But the final album cover seemed to have erased a transgender model who appeared in an earlier version. This has left a number of fans wondering if Travis Scott has a problem with the transgender community. If so … yikes. Reports say that Travis Scott is planning to propose to Kylie very soon. Whether or not that’s true, he probably wants to maintain a close relationship with her family. That would include her father, Caitlyn Jenner, who is the most famous trans woman on the planet.  So why, some wonder, does the final version of his Astroworld album art seem to have conveniently excluded transgender model and performance artist Amanda Lepore? Here is the version that Travis shared with the world. That’s quite the image, depicting some sort of naughty erotic amusement park that might perhaps be entered through Travis’ own mouth. It’s odd and salacious, but perhaps no one would have ever known that anyone was missing had Amanda Lepore not shared it herself. “It was great being part of @david_lachapelle’s incredible photograph of @travisscott’s albulm cover,” Amanda wrote on Instagram. “But,” Amanda continues. “I’m curious why I’m not on the picture @travisscott posted.” Along with her comments, she included a look at the original. We’re not going to make you spot the difference — if you see her, off to the left, she’s just about mooning the camera. But not in the version that Travis shared. “A girl can’t help it!” Amanda writes. “Too distracting for the eyes!” Her theory, which she shares in the captions, is that she must have “upstaged everyone in the photograph!” “Oh well………..” she writes to show that there is no ill will, adding: “I love @david_lachapelle and @travisscott! Love and kisses” But what’s the real story? A number of people, including celebrities within the LGBTQ+ community, were shocked and saddened to see that Amanda had been excluded. Some commenters came right out and suggested that perhaps Travis Scott had personally ordered that Amanda be scrubbed from the image. Honestly, that’s a major assumption — especially knowing that many artists may have their album art changed without their knowledge. Fortunately, the photographer himself came forward to explain what had happened. “Amanda was taken out because she just upstaged everyone,” Dave LaChapelle writes, adding: “Lol.” LaChapelle continued, affirming Amanda’s value as a model and performance artist. “She is in my books and my heart,” LaChapelle writes. “She knows the T.” T is a slang expression for  truth , one particularly common within the LGBTQ+ community and also within African American Vernacular English. LaChepelle was dismissive of accusations of bigotry. “Everybody wants to explain everything with some phobia or whatever,” LaChapelle writes under another comment. LaChapelle adds: “Ain’t notihing to do with hating.” In fact, TMZ reports that Travis Scott didn’t delete Amanda from his cover. In fact, he apparently didn’t even know about the earlier version. Sometimes artistic choices can accidentally look really positive or really negative when they’re just based upon the aesthetic of a photograph. So, is this likely to get Travis in trouble with Caitlyn? Probably not, actually. For one thing, Cait may have caused trouble for the Kardashians, but Kylie is her youngest. We don’t know how willing she would be to stir thet pot. But beyond that, Amanda Lepore is a performance artist. Amanda’s look is about more than just gender expression — it’s art in and of itself. That’s a little different than the vast majority of transgender folks. Some have suggested that Cait wouldn’t race to defend Amanda’s honor because Amanda is outside of the mainstream. But we can’t speak to Caitlyn Jenner’s thoughts or feelings on the matter until she actually comments. If she even chooses to do so. View Slideshow: 14 Noteworthy Transgender Pioneers
