Kylie Jenner: Unable to Function Without Tyga?!

Kylie Jenner and Tyga broke up over a month ago … but you know they can’t quit each other. For some inconceivable yet really disturbing reason, these two keep coming back to each other, against all odds. (The odds, in case you forgot, being that they got together when Kylie was still legally a child and also that thing where Kylie’s brother shares a child with Tyga’s ex .) It’s hard to watch, but still, we can never look away. But sadly, we’re learning now that there may be a more sinister reason for Kylie and Tyga’s constant back and forth romance . And that is that — surprise! — their relationship is actually pretty unhealthy. According to a source who spoke with People, Kyga’s relationship, when it’s in play, is always a “complicated” one. “When Kylie is happy, they’re happy — but it’s never that simple,” the source says. “There’s always some kind of drama with Kylie and Tyga.” Understatement of the year , right? But more troubling than the drama that constantly surrounds their relationship is that “When he’s around, that’s all that matters in her world.” “And she’s in such an incredible position right now — poised to have such incredible success.” It’s true, you know. There’s her insanely popular cosmetics line, and her new Keeping Up with the Kardashians spin-off that’s coming up soon. The world is her oyster, but alas, “When things go awry between those two, Kylie loses focus and turns into a different person.” “She won’t listen to anyone — it’s like nobody can talk sense into her until they work things out.” The source concludes this tragic tale with “If they could ever get to a mature point where it was more of a functional relationship, things would be amazing.” “But until then, it continues to be a sore subject.” What a great big troubling mess. The thing is that Kylie began dating Tyga when she was so young, and with him being considerably older than her, not to mention the fact that he was already a father when they got together … They’ve just never really had a chance to have a healthy relationship. That’s been proven with this latest breakup, which, according to various sources, happened because Tyga cheated on her and she feels she can’t trust him, because she wanted him to propose and he wouldn’t, or because she simply got bored. Kylie, honey, there’s nothing wrong with being single. Take advantage of the stupid amount of fame you got by literally doing nothing, set yourself up for the future, have the kind of fun a 19-year-old girl should be having, and forget about this douchebag. It’s really not that difficult. View Slideshow: Celebrity Break-Ups: Who Called It Quits in 2017?

Javi Marroquin: Blaming MTV For Divorce From Kailyn Lowry?!

When we first learned that Kailyn Lowry and Javi Marroquin were getting divorced , it looked as though the couple would pull off something that no previous Teen Mom couple had managed: Lowry and Marroquin wanted an amicable co-parenting relationship, and they both seemed committed enough to make it happen. Of course, it wasn’t long before reality interfered with that goal. On the most reason season of Teen Mom 2, viewers watched Kailyn and Javi’s relationship deteriorate rapidly. The situation culminated in an incident in which Javi entered Kailyn’s home without permission during a fit of jealous rage. She wound up pursuing legal action and being issued a temporary order of protection. Javi opened up about his divorce during a recent interview with something called Posh Kids magazine, and he says the stress of starring on such a high-profile show added to the pressure that caused his marriage to crack: “I believe that it adds stress,” Marroquin said when asked about shooting the series. “You’re filming these long seasons. I mean it’s human instinct to be stressed naturally.” But while Javi  does seem to believe that reality TV played a role in the dissolution of his marriage, he’s careful not to bite the hand that feeds him: “MTV doesn’t hold a gun to your head,” he tells the magazine. “I’m not going to attribute the show to the fail of my marriage. I think we both made decisions and some were right some were wrong and that is what ultimately lead to the end of our marriage.” To his credit, Javi accepts at least partial blame for his Kailyn’s breakup, as well as for the ugly turn the various ways in which both parties made life more difficult for each other in the months following their divorce: “I think I could have handled it a lot better than what I did,” he said. “Everything was still raw and still so new, and I was in a bad place.” Remarkably, Javi says he and Kailyn have actually repaired their friendship and are doing well these days: “We are actually doing really well,” the 24-year-old recently told Radar Online. “Everything is behind us now and we’ve moved on. It’s all about the boys now and it’s great.” Of course, that probably means he knows the identity of Kailyn’s newest baby daddy . Unfortunately, it looks like he’s not talking. Watch Teen Mom 2 online to relive the many ups and downs of Kailyn and Javi’s relationship. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry & Javi Marroquin Divorce: A Timeline of Destruction

Katy Perry: Tied Up in Ryan Phillippe’s Basement!!!

Okay, before you get too upset and try to get the president on the phone only to get stuck listening to Steve Bannon ‘s drunken ramblings about the deconstruction of the administrative state, let us clarify one very important thing: Katy Perry is not in any sort of danger. And Ryan Phillippe is not guilty of any serious crimes that we’re aware. (As far as we know, starring in the movie Antitrust is not a punishable offense … yet.) So then why is it that we’re talking about Perry being chained to Phillippe’s water heater? Well, it all started with the folks at Hollywood Life and one of their breathless, all-caps EXCLUSIVES. The site reported that Katy and Ryan were spotted flirting at Elton John’s birthday party last month. That led to rumors that they were a full-blown couple. And those rumors led to this tweet from Ryan: “I am not dating katy perry. Barely know her. Please stop flying helicopters over my hosue. She is not here. Thx.” One commenter pointed out what we were all thinking, writing: “That’s what some1 who has Katy Perry in his basement would say.” Katy saw the exchange responded thusly: Dammit, now we wish they were dating! Sadly, Katy went on to make it perfectly clear that far from being a couple, she and Ryan have scarcely met: “Hi, nice to meet you, sorry bout that @RyanPhillippe carry on, lol,” she tweeted at the actor. There’s been no real update on Katy’s love life since reps announced back on March 1 that Perry and Orlando Bloom have broken up . Oh, we learned last week that she’s taken the occasional dip in the lady pond , but we sort of assumed that, what with the lyrics about the cherry Chapstick and whatnot. As for Phillippe, well, he was engaged to Paulina Slagter , but that appears to be … over? Frankly, we have no idea. But be honest, it wasn’t the Ryan Phillippe part of the headline that brought you here in the first place, right? You can now rest easy knowing that Katy Perry is not locked up in the man’s basement, which means there’s no reason to send SEAL Team 6 to Phillippe’s house … yet.

Kendall Jenner Pepsi Ad: ROASTED by Saturday Night Live!

It's been  a rough week for Kendall Jenner . And for Pepsi. And for people who like commercials that aren't literally the dumbest thing they've ever seen. On Tuesday, Pepsi debuted their brand new ad: the idea was that a bunch of people of all sorts of walks of life come together for a peaceful protest. Kendall Jenner is nearby modeling, and decides to get involved. Just when it looks like the police might be ready to take action, Kendall hands an officer a Pepsi. Everyone cheers, because the Pepsi has saved them all. It's utterly ridiculous , and it's hard to believe that it got made in the first place. But thank goodness it did, because last night, Saturday Night Live took it on in just the most delightful skit. In the skit, the director of the commercial takes a phone call from his sister, and describes the premise to her. And it does not go well. She tells him it's “sorta tone-deaf,” so he talks to her husband instead, who tells him that he's just using people from different races to sell soda. He then asks his sister put a neighbor on the phone, “a black one.” He only gets as far as saying the commercial is “an homage to the Black Lives Matter movement” when she tells him not to even touch it. There's even a special appearance from Kendall Jenner, telling one of her sisters how “cute” the ad is going to be. Oh, you guys … Check out the skit in the video below:

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino: Headed to Prison For Tax Evasion?!

It’s been a long time since the general public actually cared about what the cast of Jersey Shore is up to, but remarkably, the Seaside Heights gang appears to be holding up pretty well post-fame. Well, most of them are, anyway. While Snooki, Vinny and the rest have carved out careers for themselves doing podcasts and appearing at “Hey, remember this guy?” conventions, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino hasn’t fared quite as well. The Sitch still makes the occasional headline these days, but it’s never for anything good. In fact, when we see his name these days, it’s usually because Sorrentino was arrested again. Most recently, Mike was locked up for his involvement in some sort of tanning salon melee , which is either the most appropriate or most ironic arrest in history. We can’t decide. But it was the arrest prior to that that’s still giving Mike legal headaches, and it could wind up landing him behind bars of a very long time. Mike was busted for tax fraud back in 2014, and it seems he still hasn’t sorted the issue out with the feds. Today, TMZ is reporting that Mike is still facing decades behind bars for tax evasion. The IRS claims that Sorrentino conspired with his brother (who’s also facing jail time) to conceal a significant portion of the $8.9 million that Mike made between 2010 and 2012. Yes, the freakin’ Situation made $8.9 million in two years. And you thought today’s political news was depressing! Anyway, far from backing down and working out a restitution plan, the U.S. Attorney in New Jersey is going hard on Sorrentino, adding a handful of new charges this week. Mike now faces allegations of tax evasion, as well as structuring and falsifying records to avoid detection of assets. Prosecutors maintain that the Sorrentino brothers filed false income tax returns and made fraudulent deductions. No trial date has been set, but it sounds like Mike may soon have quite the situation on his hands. Hey, at least if he goes to prison he’ll have plenty of time to work on his abs. And that’s it. We’ve exhausted out supply of The Situation jokes. If you’re keeping score at home, there were exactly two. Any more than that would require remembering more about The Situation than his stupid nickname and ab obsession and frankly, we can’t spare the brain real estate.

Don Rickles Dies; Legendary Comic Was 90

Don Rickles, the legendary comic who turned the insult into an art form, has passed away at the age of 90. His publicist confirmed the news in a statement issued to the media moments ago. While longevity eludes most comics due to changing tastes in humor, Rickles remained a stalwart in the standup scene for an astonishing six decades. Often cited as a top influence by today’s biggest comedians, Rickles made a career out of skewering public figures, fellow entertainers, his own audience, and even himself. His impact can be seen everywhere from sharp-tongued sitcom characters to the popular Comedy Central Roast series. Rickles didn’t invent insult comedy, but he may have done more to popularize it than anyone else. Rickles kicked off his career in New York nightclubs during the 1950s, eventually gaining a huge name for himself as the master of the put-down. So much so, in fact, that he became a sought-after act to perform for and alongside the biggest names in show business. In the ’60s, Rickles became a fixture in Las Vegas, and was frequently spotted partying with Frank Sinatra and his famous Rat Pack. In addition to standup, Rickles became a familiar face to generations of film and television fans. Though his own attempts at launching a series never panned out, he racked up scores of TV credits over the years. Rickles was a fixture on the late night talk show circuit from the time of its inception. He also played guest roles on sitcoms such as Get Smart, Newhart and, in 2011, Hot in Cleveland, and Murphy Brown. He also showed off his dramatic chops in films such as Martin Scorsese’s Casino, and earned a new generation of fans with his voice work as Mr. Potato Head in the Toy Story films. Social media tributes to Rickles from fans, friends and fellow comics began pouring in within minutes of the announcement of his death. Many, of course, did so while paying tribute to Rickles’ scathing style in a manner he would have to appreciate if he were here to see it. “Hey Helen Keller, show’s up here. Gandhi, stop hogging the breadsticks or we’ll let Bob Hope tell jokes again,” Patton Oswalt tweeted. Others were more serious and straightforward. “A national treasure is gone. Don Rickles’ talent was limitless. To know him was a gift,” wrote Larry King, and what more can you say? Rickles is survived by his wife of 52 years, his two children, and two grandchildren. He was one of the greats, and will be missed. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2017: In Memoriam

Jinger Duggar: Pregnant With First Child! (Report)

After weeks of rumors, several media outlets are now confirming the news that Jinger Duggar is pregnant with her first child. Jinger married Jeremy Vuolo back in November, and at the time, the couple told fans that they planned on starting a family as soon as possible. Last week, photos which some fans believe showed Jinger concealing a baby bump further fueled speculation, and now Duggar insiders have reportedly leaked the news. Not surprisingly, sources claim the Duggars are holding back on confirming the reports so that they can make the reveal to fans on a future episode of the family’s reality show, Counting On:  “Jinger and Jeremy are keeping the news under wraps to promote the upcoming season of Counting On,” an insider tells In Touch. The source adds that the pregnancy may prompt Jinger and Jeremy to relocate: “No one would be surprised if they moved back to Arkansas to be with her family.” There’s been no official word yet from Jinger or Jeremy, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the reports are bogus. In the past, the Duggars have gone to great lengths to conceal pregnancies and other big developments from fans until they felt the time was right. When Jessa Duggar was pregnant with her second child , the family managed to keep the news to themselves until well into her second trimester. No mean feat considering the amount of fan scrutiny on her every social media post. Unfortunately, it may be quite some time before Duggar devotees find out for sure if Jinger is expecting, as Counting On isn’t scheduled to return to TLC until sometime this summer. When asked about her pregnancy plans in a recent interview with People magazine, Jinger spoke only in the vaguest terms: “We are just enjoying our life together,” she told the magazine. “We will see what the Lord does.” Some fans have noted that Jinger didn’t mention being pregnant in a recent update she posted to her family’s official blog. Burt again, that doesn’t mean much. The Duggars have based their empire on controlling when and how information about their personal lives is revealed. You can be certain that if and when Jinger confirms she’s knocked up, she’ll do so on her parents’ timetable. Watch Counting On online to get caught up in time for the season to come.

JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers Vacation In Fiji: See The Pics!

Are JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rodgers actually going strong? The Bachelorette duo had their PDA on for some Instagram pictures of a romantic getaway to Fiji, but are they for real? Given the never-ending rumors about the state of their relationship , it’s difficult to understand what story JoJo and Jordan are selling to keep the dough coming in from their stint on the reality series.  Both JoJo and Jordan hit up Instagram to share pictures of the vacation, and they looked like they were having an awesome time.  The picture above looks like an ad campaign for some sort of his and her swimwear line. Right? It is pretty crazy how many people thought these two would be over within. It’s now been over a year since they first met and they seem happier than ever.  Their wedding is still very much on the horizon, but could they still go the way of the flip phone? The thing about Bachelor Nation couples is that they can appear to be smiling for the cameras, but then you hear about their relationship ending a few days later.  Hopefully, we’re wrong, and they will make it down the aisle. Hey, the franchise would probably look like the worst way of finding love if another couple bit the bullet.  Ever since meeting on The Bachelorette Season 12 last year, it has been as clear as day there was something between Fletcher and Rodgers.  But rumors can ruin a relationship. Will they be able to defy the odds and live together for a long and prosperous relationship? The producers are probably hoping so.  There were rumblings that the pair could be getting a televised wedding late last year, but nothing every materialized.  They have been less prominent in the media since The Bachelor Season 21 debuted. That could be attributed to Corinne Olympios hogging all the Bachelor Nation spotlight.  What do you think about all of this? Sound off below!

John Stamos Helps Boyfriend Pull Off Best Proposal EVER

Well, this video is totally and completely awesome. It centers on Doug Cox, a resident of San Francisco who really wanted to propose to his girlfriend Katrina Firenze. The only issue? In his own words, Katrina has a “John Stamos problem,” which means Doug also has a “Doug Stamos problem,” as evidenced by an actual photo of the Full House star on a wall on Katrina's house.  To wit: Therefore, in order to get his girlfriend's attention, and to make it clear he had the blessing of John Stamos, Doug wrote a letter to John Stamos that opened as follows: Let me just start by throwing a number at ya. 34 percent, John. 34 percent. That is the percentage of space the entire ‘Full House’ series takes up on my DVR. Doug proceeded to explain his personal pickle: My girlfriend, Katrina, is the most amazing human being I’ve ever met. She’s kind, she’s genuine, she can win over a room in seconds. I want to marry this woman, but there’s a brick wall in the way: A 6-foot-tall Greek God with better hair than me. And, John, I have fantastic hair. Incredible, Stamos didn't merely reply to Doug's email… … he did so by reading it out loud and then basically proposing to his biggest fan on behalf of her boyfriend. “From what I see here on this email that you sent, you’re a handsome man,” Stamos says in the following video, addressing Doug and then Katrina: “Nice hair, a beard, beautiful blue eyes. Katrina, I would say yes to young Doug. So I guess this is me asking you to marry him, and I hope you do it.” Have mercy, right?!? How does Katrina react to one of the greatest proposals we've ever witnessed? Click PLAY to find out!

Duggar Women Reveal Unique Wedding Dress Tradition: WATCH!

Back in November, Jinger Duggar got married to Jeremy Vuolo in the sort of massively-attended ceremony that's become a Duggar calling card. (Sources say nearly 1,000 guests watched the couple exchange vows.) But while the wedding was certainly lavish, it was also rooted in generations of tradition, as the Duggars  are reminding us in a newly-released clip from the upcoming season of Counting On. Yes, to the chagrin of some fans the Duggars are getting still more mileage out of Jinger's wedding. (We figured that well had pretty much run dry after devoting most of last season to the nuptials.) But at least this time they're letting us in on a family custom that had  been heretofore undiscussed: “There’s been a family tradition that whenever one of the girls gets married, they can take a piece of my mom and Grandma Duggar’s dress — they wore the same dress for their weddings,” Jinger tells the camera. “And so, we take a piece of that dress and incorporate it into our dress.” So they chop up Grandma Duggar's wedding dress? At the rate the Duggars get married and breed that thing is gonna be the size of a dish rag by 2025. But hey, at least it's original, and a refreshing change of pace from a family that usually seems allergic to originality. Yesterday, the Duggars offered dating advice to young women, and their tips were predictably old-fashioned and puritanical. By comparison this wedding dress thing is like a teen texting about premarital sex while pulling off a skateboard trick.
