Keshia Knight Pulliam & Ed Hartwell: MARRIED in Surprise Wedding!

Happy news! Rudy from The Cosby Show got married! That’s right, Keshia Knight Pulliam, who played the adorably spunky “Rudy” on Cosby , is now wed to former NFL player Ed Hartwell. And here’s the best part: it was a surprise wedding! On her podcast, “Kandidly Keshia,” the former child star revealed that her friends and family “had no clue they were coming to a wedding. They thought they were coming to a New Year’s party.” What a way to kick off 2016. Instead of choosing a destination wedding, the couple decided to keep the ceremony low-key by holding it in their house. “We did it literally in our living room in our home,” she said. Pulliam shared a photo of their wedding kiss on her Instagram, writing in the caption: “The most AMAZING day of our life!!! New ‘Kandidly Keshia’ available on play.it/Keshia. Listen as we share our magical wedding day. #IAmOfficiallyMrsHartwell” New hubby Hartwell is just as ecstatic about their union.  “I’m happy every day. I thank God every day,” he said, joining his wife on the podcast. “No matter what I go through, I thank him every day that I get to wake up next to such a beautiful angel that he sent into my life.” Super sweet! This is the first marriage for Pulliam and the second for Hartwell, who was previously married to The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Lisa Wu. The two divorced in 2011 and have a son together. Congratulations to this very happy couple.

Derick Dillard: Photo of Jill Duggar’s Husband Sparks Concern Amongst Fans

As you probably know, 2015 was a difficult year for the Duggar family , so it’s not surprising that Jill Duggar-Dillard decided to close things out by paying loving tribute to her husband with a simple, scandal-free selfie. Or so she thought. Unfortunately for her, nothing has been going according to plan for the Duggars lately: Jill posted that pic last week with a caption that reading simply, “I [heart Emoji] my hubby.” The image garnered lots of attention, but not because of Jill’s romantic sentiments. Many fans pointed out that Dillard’s appearance has changed considerably since his and Jill’s wedding last year. In turn, the comment board on Jill’s Instagram page quickly became a place to diagnose Derick and debate the cause of his drastic weight loss. “He looks anorexic,” one fan commented. “His face is gaunt and his eyes are sunk in. Compare wedding day photos with this photo. Definitely something wrong.” “Did he have a stroke or something?” wrote another. “Even on their 3 episode special he had some weird stuff going on with his face.” Theories put forth by fans ran the gamut from neurological impairments to religious fasting, but the real reason for Derick’s changing is likely much simpler. If you go back and watch 19 Kids and Counting  online , you may notice that the Duggar clan is strangely fixated on teeth. It may be for that reason that Derick underwent oral surgery to extend his palette and began wearing braces shortly after his marriage to Jill. Such procedures have been known to result in weight loss, as they often require patients to adhere to liquid diets for several weeks at a time. Of course, the stress of the past year probably didn’t help Derick put the pounds back on. In addition to the Josh Duggar sex scandals that made tabloid headlines, other members of the famous family have sparked online controversy over the past year. Even the seemingly harmless  Jill and Derick were accused of lying about their missionary work  in Central America in order to scam fans out of donations. It would be a lot for anyone to deal with, and unlike his wife, Derick is no reality TV veteran. Hopefully, the new dad will just keep a low profile and spend time with his family in 2016.

Drake and Amber Rose: Dating?!

We can’t say we saw this relationship coming, but it certainly makes a lot of sense. Multiple sources are reporting that Drake and Amber Rose are knockin’ boots in what might be the most perfect celebrity pairing since Brangelina. (Sorry, Jen.) It started when Page Six reported that Drake and Amber (or D-Rose, as we like to call them) were spotted enjoying an intimate dinner together in Miami on Friday night. Hollywood Life backed the story up with a claim that Drake and Amber “flaunted major PDA,” which apparently means they were  in relatively close proximity to one another in a public place: “Drake and Amber Rose had a big entourage with them,” one source said. “But they were standing together as they went up in the elevator. “They ate dinner with a few other people, but they were sitting next to each other and he had his arm around her! She was in a tight white outfit and he was wearing a red shirt. They definitely seemed more than friends.” Okay, so it’s not like they were pawing at each other before the appetizers came out, but we’re hoping this relationship is the real deal for a number of reasons. For one thing, we’re still recovering from the disappointment of the Drake and Serena Williams  that never happened. Based on their flirtations, however, we can assume that Drake likes the ladies with the Kardashian-esque backsides, and Amber has been blessed in that department. Amber, of course, recently divorced Wiz Khalifa , so we know she’s into rappers with sensitive sides, and Drizzy basically invented that schtick. Like we said, these two would make a great match. Here’s hoping they progress beyond the “dinner with 18 other people” stage in their relationship. View Slideshow: Amber Rose Selfies: Look at Me!

Katy Perry and John Mayer: Back Together For 2016!!!

We’re a few days into a new year, so a lot of the folks reading this are currently brimming with motivation and positivity, but sadly, most of you will eventually fall back into your old ways. So why delay the inevitable? Why not make like Katy Perry? All you have to do is cut to the chase and kick off 2016 by repeating your worst mistake for the 4,000th time. Yes, Katy and John Mayer ended 2015 with a bang, literally, as they were spotted having dinner together in Los Angerles, and then heading back to Katy’s place in separate vehicles. The old taking two cars schtick didn’t fool the paparazzi, however, and Us Weekly is now reporting that Katy and John are back together .  We apologize for the confusing feeling of deja vu you’re experiencing at the moment. John and Katy have reconciled many, many times before, and no, we don’t really have any idea if they’re actually dating or just making bedroom fireworks and exploring one another’s wonderland-like bodies. The singers appeared to briefly be an item again last summer, but several sources reported that Mayer dumped Perry in July as part of a pattern that these two are seemingly doomed to repeat until the end of time.  But hey, it’s a new year, so maybe John and Katy are a new couple, right? Sure. Hey, let us know when you drop that extra 20 pounds, quit Facebook, finish your novel and start volunteering, won’t you?
