Ariana Grande and Piers Morgan: We Don’t Despise Each Other Anymore!

Posted on February 20, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The hatchet has been buried. Literal bread has been broken. The feud, alas, is over. On Tuesday night, Ariana Grande ran into Piers Morgan at a restaurant in Los Angeles, prompting the singer and the obnoxious talk show host to sit down and hash out their differences. Back in November, you may recall, Morgan trashed Ellen DeGeneres as a hypocrite and the all-girls group Little Mix for showing some skin on the comedian’s talk show. The chauvinistic Brit criticized the group for using its sexuality to promote their music, an accusation that angers both Grande and even her mother. Ariana quickly jumped on Twtitter to explain the concept of female empowerment to Morgan. “I use my talent AND my sexuality all the time because I choose to,” Grande Tweeted at Morgan in response to his remarks. “Women can be sexual AND talented. Naked and dignified. It’s OUR choice.” As summarized below, and as we mentioned above, Grande’s mother even got in on the Morgan bashing: View Slideshow: Ariana Grande and Her Mom Destroy Piers Morgan Over Misogyny Fast forward about two months and these stars came face to face by accident. But they used this chance meeting to try and clear the air. “Thank u for a great night @ArianaGrande x,” Morgan Tweeted on Tuesday after their discussion, to which Grande wrote back: “thank u for some laughs and some v productive conversation ! it was nice bumping into u ! #FutureFeministPiers #FingersCrossed.” Followers were curious about what transpired between Ariana and Piers, which prompted Grande to spill a little more tea: “well………… we bumped into each other. at a restaurant. and i decided to sit with him and we spoke for a while. i think some progress was made! turns out face to face discussions are a bit kinder and gentler, even if you do indeed disagree.” How mature, right? Grande and Morgan even posed for a selfie together (below), alongside which Piers echoed Grande’s sentiment. He wrote as a caption to this unexpected snapshot: So… we bumped into each other in a LA restaurant, she joined me for ‘a chat’ &  2 hours later we were still chatting. We laughed, we argued, she cried, I nearly did, the drinks flowed & we bonded. Turns out we really like each other. Weird. Thank u ⁦@ArianaGrande⁩ – next? We’re glad Grande and Morgan worked out their differences. Now, Morgan just has to make time to sit down and talk in depth with the other celebrities he’s angered over the years. This means he’ll need to hash it out with Chris Evans … and Sophie Turner … and Tess Holliday …

Must Be Nice: Megyn Kelly Exits NBC With $30 Million Settlement Following Controversial Blackface Comments

Posted on January 13, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: NBC / Getty Megyn Kelly Finally Exits NBC With $30 Million Settlement Megyn Kelly is officially no longer an employee of NBC, but she didn’t make her exit without securing a hefty settlement first. NBC announced on Friday that they had finalized the terms of Kelly’s exit, only two short years after she signed a $69 million deal with the network: “The parties have resolved their differences, and Megyn Kelly is no longer an employee,” NBC announced in a statement to the  New York Times . The publication reports that the former host will walk away with a $30 million payout, which is the remainder of her original $69 million contract. Back in January of 2017, the former Fox News anchor signed on to host the  Megyn Kelly Today  show ,  which was canceled  back in October following her controversial comments about blackface. “But what is racist? You truly do get in trouble if you are a white person who puts on blackface at Halloween or a black person who puts on whiteface for Halloween,” Kelly said as she spoke to an all-white panel on her then-morning talk show. “Back when I was a kid, that was OK, as long as you were dressing up as like a character.” Unsurprisingly, Kelly’s ignorance about blackface immediately sparked outrage, prompting her to issue an apology in which she used said ignorance as an excuse. “I realize now that such behavior is indeed wrong, and I am sorry,”  she wrote in an email  to her NBC colleagues at the time. “The history of blackface in our culture is abhorrent; the wounds too deep. I’ve never been a “pc” kind of person — but I understand that we do need to be more sensitive in this day and age. Particularly on race and ethnicity issues which, far from being healed, have been exacerbated in our politics over the past year.” Kelly recently told  TMZ  she would “definitely” be back on TV, but the ratings for The Today Show have only increased since she left–companies might wanna take note.

Mahershala Ali And Viggo Mortensen Tells Stories Of People Butchering Their Names

Posted on November 20, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Continue reading here:

Make it a priority to go see Green Book starring Mahershala Ali. The movie tells the story of an unlikely friendship between Dr. Don Shirley a black classical pianist and Tony Lip Vallelonga an Italian bouncer who gets hired to drive Dr. Shirley through the Jim Crow south for a string of performances in a bunch of whites-only venues. I sat down with Mahershala Ali and Viggo Mortensen , the stars of Green Book for an interview about the film where they open up about two of the best-acted roles of the year. You are likely to hear their names mentioned all throughout awards seasons. They chatted about working with one another, falling into these characters and we even got a laugh about how people mispronounce their names. Mahershala who puts on an epic performance as Dr. Don Shirley reveals they started building their chemistry before they started filming, “There is no greater feeling in acting, or in this craft than to work with somebody you feel like you’re with every step of the way. We just really did the dance from before we started shooting. From sitting in the hotel in New Orleans going through the script and reading it through together and we locked into something really early and it just never left us.” Green Book is one of the best movies of the year and right now it’s number 1 on my list. When I sit down and go back over all the movies I have seen this one will rank high on my list of movies. I’m sure you’ll see it in a bunch of top 10 list of other popular top ten list as well. There has been a lot of chatter about this movie and how it’s told from Tony’s perspective but in my opinion that doesn’t take away from the quality of the film. While this is a feel-good movie, there isn’t anything wrong with that. America is a racist country that continues to this day to have deep roots in that flawed ideology and just because one movie decides to tell the story of two people coming together despite their differences doesn’t mean it’s implying that racism is over. It’s just a story. The more movies they make like this the closer we get to a place where we can all get along. Green Book hits theaters everywhere Wednesday, go see with the family after Thanksgiving dinner.

90 Day Fiance Scandal: Larissa Exposed as Deadbeat Mom

Posted on November 15, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

On the heels of 90 Day Fiance star Larissa’s arrest for domestic battery , another scandal arises. It turns out that she has children — children who have never been mentioned on the show, whom she left behind in Brazil. Now that viewers know that Larissa has three children in three different homes, she has issued a response. Colt and Larissa have just dealt with a huge scandal this week. Now, a woman has taken to Twitter to share even more about Larissa. “I met Larissa in Brazil 5 years ago,” the tweet begins. “She was dating my best friend – the father of her son.” “She has 3 children that she left behind,” the tweet reveals. “My friend have custody of the middle one,” she shares. “The oldest is with the father and the little one is with her father.” That sounds like three children who are growing up in three households … while Larissa jets off to Vegas to go furniture shopping. Marcos Hack himself, the baby daddy referred to in the tweet, also shared a message of his own on social media. “I want to address this story about Larissa and I,” he wrote. “Yes it is true,” “Larissa and I had a relationship years ago, and we had a son together,” Marcos confirms. “7 months after he was born she left him with me,” Marcos says. “My son Arry is the light of my life.” “I don’t want to expose my son or my family to the public,” Marcos says. “But people need to know who the real Larissa is.” A very unflattering picture of Larissa has begun to form. Larissa responded, confirming what Marcos had said. “Yes, I had a relationship before with Marcos Hack,” she writes. “We lived for 2 years together.” “He broken my heart in many pieces back there, I got really depressed,” she shares. Larissa continues: “I found myself unable to take care of our son and his sister adopted him.” “I also have a daughter from another relationship, who lives with my father,” Larissa shares. “And who I plan to bring to United States one day.” Larissa writes that she will do this “when I am ready to take care of her.” Larissa also claims that Marcos stole money from her. She also says that Marcos is just looking for his “15 minutes” of fame, which is an odd claim from a brand new reality star. “I was not talking about my kids because the show is 90 days fiance,” Larissa explains. “It is not about my past or my children.” “I ask people to respect their privacy,” Larissa says. “And I wont talk about the never again.” In a much more public context, Larissa promised fans that they would learn more about her on the show. “There are certain topics I don’t discuss,” Larissa writes on Instagram in large white letters on a red background. “You’ll have to keep watching 90 Day Fiance to see more,” Larissa teases. “They will show everything about my life,” she primises. “Photos, videos, and family.” “Thank you,” she concludes. “For all love and support. In the captions, she penned another message. “Keeping watching to understand everything, for now I can’t discuss it,” Larissa explains. “Trust me,” she promises. “The show has just begun.” Considering that this comes on the heels of her arrest after a fight with Colt led police to take her away for domestic battery, fans are concerned. Larissa is looking less like a run-of-the-mill problematic reality star. She’s looking like a real 90 Day Fiance villain. It didn’t help that fans have already seen her make Colt’s mother cry with her hostile reactions to their home. Is she a husband-abuser who abandoned her children in different homes? Or are we not getting the whole story? If the next episodes don’t tell us, hopefully we’ll get a much clearer picture at the Tell All special.

Kailyn Lowry: Jo Rivera Is Trying to Screw Me In Court!

Posted on November 15, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kailyn Lowry's roller-coaster relationships with her three baby daddies might make for compelling viewing on Teen Mom 2 , but we're sure the mother of three would prefer much more drama-free co-parenting relationships. Typically, it's Chris Lopez or Javi Marroquin who gives Kail a hard time, but these days, it's her OG baby daddy, Jo Rivera, that's making her life more difficult. The news comes as a shock, as Kail and Chris have typically been able to sort out their differences over the years. But as Kail confirmed on the latest episode of her podcast, that is definitely no longer the case. Take a look: 1. What Happened? Jo is Kail’s first baby daddy, and for years, the two of them peacefully co-parented 8-year-old Isaac. 2. Ups and Downs Sure, there have been some rough patches over the years, but until recently, it looked as though Kail and Jo would be able to set aside their differences for the sake of their son. 3. Making It Work Kail even attended Jo’s wedding — and happily posed for pic with the bride — when he married Vee Torres earlier this year. 4. Money Matters But as is so often the case with this sort of thing, Jo and Kail’s relationship broke down over money. 5. Kail’s Cash According to comments Kail made on her recent Coffee Convos podcast, Jo is coming after her cash in a big way. 6. A Tricky Situation Opening up to co-host Lindsie Chrisley, Kail revealed that she was stunned when Jo recently filed a petition requesting child support. View Slideshow

Leah Messer Teases Podcast: I’m Aiming to Inspire!

Posted on October 17, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Leah Messer has a lot to say. And she hopes you will want to listen. The veteran Teen Mom cast member has spoken to Us Weekly about a brand new project that she really hopes will make a difference in the lives of her fans. It's a podcast. But it's different than the podcast made famous by fellow MTV colleague Kailyn Lowry.  In what way? And what will Messer's podcast be titled? Scroll down to find out! 1. Let’s Podcast! Messer is making her move into this ever-growing medium. She tells Us Weekly that new episodes of her podcast will drop every Wednesday. 2. What Will It Be Called? Life Reboot. What do you think? We like it! You can’t say you aren’t curious to hear what a podcast with such a title will be about. 3. Can She Sum It Up? What is She Trying to Accomplish with It? “[It’s] a life transformational podcast,” the 26-year old explains to this tabloid. “Of course it’s fun … but it’s also inspirational, aspirational and motivational.” 4. Wait… Doesn’t Kailyn Lowry Have a Podcast?!? Yes, it’s called “Coffee Convos” and she co-hosts it with Lindsie Chrisley of Chrisley Knows Best. Does this mean Leah is trying to start a rivalry with her fellow MTV personality? 5. No, No, No, Leah Explains We’ll let Messer outline the differences: “Kail’s is day-to-day conversational and ours is more about transforming your life and learning how to become the best version of yourself. Even though they’re different, we love to support one another. I was on Kail’s and she was just on ours … the third episode I think.” 6. Who Might Appear? Leah isn’t dropping any names, but: “I think I’ll definitely have other Teen Mom stars and other … people that [manager] Lindsay [Rielly] and I both know on,” she previews. “We have an exciting lineup of guests for the next couple of months.” View Slideshow

Go here to see the original:

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Kanye West and Nick Cannon have come to an understanding. The two stars squashed their questionable at best beef over over Kim Kardashian.  For a quick recap, Nick Cannon dared to answer questions about Yeezy’s wife, and West, in turn, took to Instagram to say that such actions didn’t sit well with his spirit . Cannon responded  the same day (Thursday, Sept. 20) by saying West was not going to tell him what to say but that he meant no disrespect, and that he was also welcome to appear on Wild ‘N Out again. Now TMZ reports that after the messages the two of the exchanged numbers via DM, got on the phone and settled their differences over the weekend. The result, both will be more mindful of their words moving forward. Fair enough. Tell us if you care in the comments. — Photo: Getty

Paola Mayfield Shares Sweet Baby Bump Pic, Emotional Message to Fans

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Paola Mayfield has made it official: Two body parts of hers are growing these days. As previously announced, the 90 Day Fiance star is expecting her first child with husband Russ, as the reality stars themselves confirmed this blessed news just over a week ago on Instagram. Naturally, as a result, Mayfield’s belly is getting bigger by the month. But the TLC personality has also now made it clear via social media that something aside from her stomach has increased in size of late: Her heart. Indeed, Paola just shared a new, precious picture (above) of Russ kissing her baby bump, adding as a lengthy caption: “We are so thankful and happy for each one of your beautiful messages! We weren’t expecting so much love and so much support. Thank you all so much.” She then referenced some of the marital strife that she has been through over the past year or so. “You guys know all that Russ and I went through the past months,” Mayfield said in her caption, continuing in further detail: “I was angry and devastated after all you can never completely recover from something like that but today we have a reason to smile and to be happy, a reason to move forward and to be the best we can. “I wish I could keep up and like all your comments from my last post. I love you all so very much! “Thank you for living this amazing experience with us and for showing us so much love.” Mayfield is mostly referencing a miscarriage she suffered last year in this passage. As is the case with so many couples that go through this awful experience, Russ and Paola nearly hit a breaking point due to the tragedy. Paola made it pretty clear on air and in a few statements that she though Russ wasn’t there for her in the way she needed following the devastating news. Meanwhile, Russ thought his wife was trying to shut him out. It’s never been clear just how close the stars were to splitting, but their relationship hadn’t seemed entirely stable even before the miscarriage. The main storyline surrounding the Mayfields during their time on 90 Day Finance had been Paola’s penchant for posing nearly-naked and Russ’ unease over his wife showing the world such revealing assets. This was a legitimate issue between the husband and wife. It became so well known and questions about their relationship so pervasive that both sides of the romance semi-recently addressed their status online. “He accepts me,” Paola told fans in early July of Russ. “Loves me and respects me the way I am and lets me work even when he is not 100% comfortable.” Russ, for his part, also made it evident a short bit ago that he loves Paola and is committed to Paola and people need to stop claiming anything to the contrary. “I accept and am proud of my wife for the beautiful woman she is,” Russ has said , adding: “I am tired of the comments from the marriage ‘experts’ stating I deserve better, my wife doesn’t respect me, or she only loves me for my money and so on and so forth… “I am proud of where I come from. And where I am going and that’s with the love of my life.” And now also with a precious bundle of joy!  CONGRATS ALL AROUND!
