Kim Kardashian to Kanye West: No Sex for You!

Despite many rumors making their way around the Internet, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West remain married. While those close to the famous couple acknowledge there have been some difficult times of late, Kardashian does not have any plans to divorce Kanye any time soon. But she doesn’t have any plans to bend over and let him give it to her, either. Simply put, the husband and wife remain together. But not together together, if you know what we mean. “Kim is not having sex with Kanye right now and he is constantly complaining about how she is never affectionate with him,” an insider who apparently knows A LOT about Kimye tells Radar Online. Kardashian, of course, is still coming to grips with the horrible incident that changed her life forever on October 3, 2016. It was early that morning when Kim was grabbed out of her bed in Paris and bound and gagged by a group of armed assailants. They forced Kim to plead for her life while they ransacked her apartment and eventually got away with millions of dollars with of jewelry. (Well, they didn’t get away with it. Many arrests in the case were recently made.) Over the past month or so, Kim has slowly come out of her shell, sharing images here and there on Instagram and/or on her official website. But that doesn’t mean she’s ready to just take a pounding from West again on a regular basis. “Kim blames her lack of affection on the robbery,” says the source. “When Kanye questions why she doesn’t want to sleep with him anymore, she tells him that it is his fault that he does not try!” Sounds like some serious gaslighting, in our non-educated opinion. Meanwhile, some in Kanye’s camp somehow believe that Kim only “wanted Kanye for what he could do for her career.” And now that she has her many million of followers and is considered a true A-Lister, she’s more or less done with the rapper. “Now she treats him like crap,” this source alleges, adding: “It almost seems like she thinks that it does not matter what she does, because he will stick by her no matter what!” View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Photos: THE RETURN! That sounds a tad extreme, does it not? Kim recently experienced a traumatic experience. By all accounts, she still managed to remain by Kanye’s side, even as he battled demons of his own in the form of a nervous breakdown toward the end of last year. West was hospitalized for nine days as a result of this incident, although he’s now back to living at home after spending a chunk of time in a sort of private halfway house designed to ease his transition back into day-to-day life. A separate report claims Kanye was actually the one who talked Kim out of a divorce , so it’s hard to know what to believe in all of this mess. The truth likely lies somewhere in between. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian: 19 Reasons Why She Isn’t That Terrible Both Kim and Kanye have suffered through extreme personal situations of late. They have taken their toll on the marriage. But neither side has some out and given any credence to reports of the relationship’s demise, with these anonymous insiders probably grasping at straws just to make headlines. We mean… come on: Kim and Kanye are having less sex now than before, many years and two kids into their marriage? WELCOME TO MARRIAGE!

Saturday Night Live Offers Putin’s Perspective on Trump’s Inauguration!

One of the scariest things about Donald Trump — and this is really saying something, seeing as how we're talking about a man who might actually be Satan's puppet — is his strange relationship with Vladimir Putin. Reports have claimed that Putin ordered a series of cyber-attacks with the goal of getting Trump in the White House, which is more than bad enough. But throw in that now infamous dossier, the one that alleges that Putin has been “cultivating, supporting and assisting” Trump for years now. According to the documents, Trump and his people accepted “a regular flow of intelligence from the Kremlin” all throughout his campaign, and his lawyer met with Russian officials to discuss a pay-off for that stellar hacking job. Oh, and who could forget that little thing about Trump allegedly paying Russian prostitutes so that he could watch them pee on a bed the Obamas had slept in? Trump and Putin seem to be very close, besties even, and that's pretty alarming. But trust Saturday Night Live to take all that terror and make it funny. In last night's cold open, the first since Trump officially became president, Beck Bennett offered up a message to Americans as Putin. We laugh to keep from crying, but also we laugh because this is pretty great. See SNL's Putin in the video below:

Amber Portwood: See Her Brand New Makeover!

Things haven’t been looking too great for Amber Portwood lately. But just because things are going badly doesn’t mean you can’t look good! Amber put all her issues (which we’ll discuss momentarily!) aside this weekend so that she could give herself a whole new look. That’s the “before” photo she shared on Instagam. Sure, it’s pretty filtered, but take it in. “Hair is going PINK today!!!!” she revealed in the caption. “You can’t talk me out of it lol.” Pink hair, huh? Is that too big a change for the famously blonde Teen Mom star? Can she pull it off? Amber didn’t wait to long to share the “after” photo, the one with all the pink hair, so go ahead and judge for yourself: It looks cute, right? And despite that remarkably glum look on this face, she wrote in the caption that she loves the change. And hey, good for her. She deserves to feel good about herself, and she should — she looks great. But there’s a good chance Amber decided to go for such a different look to get her mind off her recent legal troubles. Amber and her sketchy boyfriend, Matt Baier, are being sued by their former rental company for unpaid rent and repairs. Why didn’t they pay rent, if Amber’s got all that Teen Mom money and Matt’s preparing to release his memoir ? It’s a good question, but one we don’t have the answer for. According to the court documents filed by the rental company, Amber and Matt owe $1,600 for failing to pay their last month of rent, as well as thousands of dollars worth of damages, much of it inflicted by the couple’s many pets. To repair the carnage left in Amber and Matt’s wake, the company says they’ll need to repair damaged dry wall, replace the vertical blinds, and order new mini blinds and a new door knob. They’ll also have to get a new smoke detector and install it, and there’s a whole lot to be done to the outside of the house, too. For what it’s worth, Amber’s former neighbor has disputed the rental company’s claims, saying that Amber’s old house looks fine and that it’s already being rented to someone new. She’s due in court in late February to deal with all this … but at least we know she’ll look fabulous while doing so.

Yordano Ventura Dead: Kansas City Royals Pitcher Was 25

Sad news today: Yordano Ventura is dead. Ventura, a 25-year-old pitcher for the World Series-winning Kansas City Royals , died today in a car crash in the Dominican Republic. It’s unclear exactly what happened to cause the crash, but according to Sports Illustrated, it’s believed that he was under the influence at the time of the crash. A Dominican police chief first broke the news of the crash, tweeting in Spanish “Regrettable!! It is the player YORDANO VENTURA the person who died in an accident in Juan Adrian at dawn today.” Later, the Vice President of Communications and Broadcasting for the Royals confirmed the news. “It is with a heavy and broken heart that we confirm the passing of Yordano Ventura,” he tweeted. “The club will release a statement soon. #RIPAce” — Ace, of course, being Ventura’s nickname. The Royals released an official press release just a few hours ago to “regretfully announce the passing of Yordano Ventura, who perished in a car accident last night in the Dominican Republic.” In the statement, Dayton Moore, general manager of the Royals, said “Our prayers right now are with Yordano’s family as we mourn this young man’s passing.” “He was so young and so talented, full of youthful exuberance and always brought a smile to everyone he interacted with.” “We will get through this as an organization,” Moore concluded, “but right now is a time to mourn and celebrate the life of Yordano.” The statement also included some information about Ventura’s short career, which he spent entirely with the Royals “after signing as a non-drafted free agent in 2008” before “debuting for the club” in 2013. He played two World Series with the team, helping bring them their second ever victory in 2015. During the last game Ventura played, he wore a special hat that paid tribute to two other baseball players who died too soon: Jose Fernandez who died last fall in a boating accident , and Oscar Taveras who died in a car crash a few years ago. Ventura’s teammates are already sending messages of mourning and love on Twitter. “I love you Ace,” third baseman Mike Moustakas wrote. “I don’t know what to say other than I’m going to miss you a lot. RIP ACE.” First baseman Eric Hosmer tweeted “ACE I love you my brother. I’m in disbelief and don’t know what to say. I love you ACE.” Drew Butera, a catcher for the Royals, wrote “Gone way too soon. You will forever be my brother. My prayers are with you and your family. May you rest with the Lord now.” Fellow pitcher Kyle Zimmer wrote “We lost a great one today. Hard to believe he’s actually gone. You will be greatly missed, Ace.” Hunter Dozier said “I’m at a loss of words today.. Very sad day in the baseball community. You’ll be missed Ace.” “When you scroll down and your whole newsfeed is talking about your brother,” left fielder Terrance Gore mused. “The impact the energy you brought to our team #GoneTooSoon” “I am still in disbelief,” pitcher Matt Strahm wrote. “I am going to miss you Ace! The clubhouse won’t be the same without you.” General manager Dayton Moore added “We love Yordano. We love his heart & who he was as a teammate & friend. He challenged us & made us better. We’re going to miss him.” Our thoughts and prayers go out to all affected by this tragic death.

Taylor Swift Under Fire for Women’s March Remarks!

Taylor Swift, more than any other popular celebrity, was extremely quiet during the 2016 presidential election. Aside from one social media post on Election Day expressing the importance of voting, she didn’t say a word — and a lot of people have been upset with her for it. Taylor is obviously one of the most influential celebrities today, and if she’d have been a little more outspoken about her political beliefs , some argue, it would have meant a lot to her fans. Of course, that’s assuming she supported Hillary Clinton. If she supported Trump , speaking out about it would have essentially been career suicide. But no matter who was Taylor’s pick for president, she obviously had no obligation to announce it. And remember, it was years and years into Taylor’s career before she felt comfortable enough to call herself a feminist , and even then, she only did it when feminism became something of a trend. All that is to say that Taylor’s never been one to loudly broadcast her political beliefs, especially if they’re even the slightest bit controversial. And boy, is she paying for it now. Yesterday, while hundreds of thousands of people all around the world were participating in the Women’s March — many of them celebrities — Taylor tweeted this: “So much love, pride, and respect for those who marched. I’m proud to be a woman today, and every day.” And immediately after she sent the tweet, people took issue with it. “This is gross opportunism,” one person told her. “Be better.” “As a fan of yours,” another person wrote, “this is some bullsh-t. You do not get to pick and choose when feminism benefits you .” The same person added “If you were really for feminism you would have spoken up against Donald Trump instead of just saying to vote on Election Day.” “You got a bad leg or something?” a follower hilariously pondered. “Why didn’t you March?” One person pulled out all the stops and told Taylor to “Stop using feminism as a prop to fuel your fake girl power narrative/meticulously crafted PR persona.” And that’s the issue: if Taylor truly was a feminist, these people believe that she should have been more vocal during the election, when it mattered the most. It’s so easy to take ten seconds and send a tweet, but why wasn’t she spotted at any marches yesterday? Rihanna and Katy Perry, two pop stars on Taylor’s level, managed to go out and support the cause they believe in, and there were no issues, no one caused a scene over seeing someone famous and stopped marching. Did she tweet about the Women’s March because she sincerely had feelings about it, or for the likes? It’s hard to say. But the point is that if Taylor really does feel so strongly about all this, there are a million things she could have done in the past several months to prove it.

Donald Trump Accused of Plagiarizing Bane: Watch the Speeches!

We already know that an aversion to the truth runs in the Trump family. But do Donald Trump and Melania Trump also share an affection for plagiarization? Back in July, the First Lady stole parts of her Republican National Convention speech from Michelle Obama… and now some folks are wondering whether not Trump also relied on another source for this afternoon’s inauguration address. Specifically, they’re wondering if Trump was strongly influenced by iconic DC Comic villain Bane. You remember Bane, don’t you? Played by Tom Hardy in The Dark Knight Rises, he caused many problems for Batman, stirring up anarchy throughout Gotham City as he encouraged the people to rise up against their oppressors. He basically vowed to Make Gotham Great Again in his own, unique, controversial way. Sound familiar? It’s about to sound a lot more familiar. Consider the following passage from Trump’s inaugural address : Today’s ceremony, however has very special meaning. Because today, we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another or from one party to another. But we are transferring power from Washington D.C. and giving it back to you… the people. For too long a small group in our nation’s capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have born the cost. Washington flourished but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered but the jobs left and the factories closed. The establishment protected itself but not the citizens of our country. Their victories have not been your victories. Their triumphs have not been your triumphs and while they celebrated in our nation’s capital, there was little to celebrate for struggling families all across our land. That all changes starting right here and right now because this moment is your moment. It belongs to you. WATCH THE FULL SPEECH BELOW: Donald Trump Inauguration Speech Okay? Got it? We’re not here to judge the address. We’re here to marvel over its similarities to what Bane said on the steps of a government building in The Dark Knight Rises. Consider: We take Gotham from the corrupt! The rich! The oppressors of generations who have kept you down with myths of opportunity, and we give it back to you… the people. Gotham is yours. None shall interfere. Do as you please. Start by storming Blackgate, and freeing the oppressed! Step forward those who would serve. For and army will be raised. The powerful will be ripped from their decadent nests, and cast out into the cold world that we know and endure. Courts will be convened. Spoils will be enjoyed. Blood will be shed. The police will survive, as they learn to serve true justice. This great city… it will endure. Gotham will survive! WATCH THE FULL SPEECH BELOW: Bane Encourages Uprising in The Dark Knight Rises We aren’t the only site that took note of this comparison. Entertainment Weekly and Jezebel were on it right away, as well. And while the idea of a wannabe Bane being in charge of our nuclear arsenal very scary, let’s remember the title of the film from which we took the above clip: The Dark Knight Rises. So that’s the question, people. That’s the reason to have hope. What hero will rise over the next four years and lead this country to a less Baneful place?

Sam Ashgari: Cheating on Britney Spears Already?!

It’s been less than two months since we first learned that Britney Spears is dating Sam Ashgari , but it looks like this relationship may be even more short-lived than her last one. It seems Sam may have been cheating on Britney from day one, as he allegedly failed to disclose that he was already in a relationship. The accusation comes from Morgan Osman, former star of the Oxygen reality series Bad Girls Club, who claims that she and Ashgari were dating – until she realized he was two-timing her with Britney. Osman spilled the tea in a conversation with notorious gossip site The Dirty this afternoon. Just last week, Osman shared a photo of herself kissing Ashgari. She’s since deleted it, but she maintains that the pic was taken recently. “I have video and images of our REAL relationship. Britney he is using you,” Morgan told The Dirty today. “I don’t know why everyone is attacking me, Sam Asghari is the cheater. I feel sorry for Britney Spears, she seems like a good person.” The news will likely come as a shock to Spears, who just last week tweeted the above image of Ashgari, along with a caption reading, “Mad love for this one.” If the allegations are true, it’ll be the latest in a long line of romantic setbacks for Spears. Last summer she broke up with Charlie Ebersol  after just eight months of dating. Sources close to the couple say she was considering marrying Ebersol just weeks prior to the split. While the cause of the breakup remains unknown, insiders maintain that Ebersol was caught cheating on Spears. The situation was described as a devastating blow to her confidence, and being cheated on a second time would no doubt shake Britney to her core. Fans expressed excitement over her relationship with Ashgari, who was widely regarded as the stable “nice guy” sort that she’d been looking for all these years. Ashgari reportedly gets along well with Britney’s kids and has been a source of emotional stability for the singer, who’s struggled with anxiety and depression in the past. Perhaps Britney and her fans should have known that Ashgari was too good to be true. View Slideshow: 22 Boyfriends of Britney Spears
