Kit Harington: DEFINITELY Returning to Game of Thrones!

Yesterday, we reported on a potentially massive Game of Thrones spoiler that now seems to have been confirmed. Sources are claiming that Jon Snow actor Kit Harington is definitely in Belfast filming episodes for the sixth season of Game of Thrones. TMZ is reporting that production insiders say this isn’t some True Detective-style fake-out : Jon did die in the Game of Thrones season 5 finale , but (as so many fans have predicted), he’ll return as a wight, or a white walker, or a warg-y wolf or maybe even Walter White (we kid), but he won’t be a watcher on the Wall.  We suppose now would be a good time to apologize for that spoiler in the headline, but come on – you knew he would be back from the moment his Night’s Watch brothers gave him the Julius Caesar treatment. We know George R.R. Martin and showrunners David Benioff and David Weiss have developed a reputation for offing major characters like it ain’t no thang, but the writers spent way too much time establishing Jon’s importance to the resolution of the show’s central conflicts to just leave him dead in the, um…snow. We guess what we’re saying is that if you really thought Kit was done with GoT for good, then you know nothing (about), Jon Snow. Watch Game of Thrones online at TV Fanatic if you’re already fiending for more bloody, boob-tastic action.

Brady Toops on Britt Nilsson: We Split Up Because …

It’s been two months since Britt Nilsson and Brady Toops split . Now the former couple, who only recently announced the split, is beginning to open up about their sad, but amicable breakup.   Brady Toops is clearing up the air and dishing the real reasons why he and former Bachelorette contestant, Britt Nilsson, split. On July 21, the musician and Bachelorette suitor took to Instagram to explain.  He shared a heartfelt picture of himself with Nilsson on the beach. He captioned the photo, “Since I wasn’t on ‘Men Tell All’ to clear things up, and since a lot of people have been asking lately, ‘If you & @brittkarolina are saying such nice things about each other, then WHY didn’t it work out?’” “In light of that, I thought I’d help clear the air and give you the 4 real (behind the scenes) reasons it didn’t work out.” He continued his post with a list of reasons : “We had no real celebrity couple mashup name.. Britt(y), Brad(itt). See, there was almost no chance. This was probably the beginning of the end when we realized this.” “Britt is afraid of heights, and not only am I afraid of heights, but I’m actually afraid of her being afraid of heights. That obviously couldn’t work.” “Once we left the show, they didn’t give us any roses. How are we suppose to figure this thing out without any roses? [for you haters out there, I did actually buy her flowers..]” “Apparently I needed some more inspiration for my next record, because we all know that break-up records are the records you can’t stop listening to (ex. Sam Smith – “In the Lonely Hour”, Adele – “21”, Coldplay – “Ghost Stories”). Stay tuned.” Obviously, there is more to the story than these jokes. Toops was so infatuated with Britt that he left the show to date her when Kaitlyn Bristowe was announced this season’s bachelorette.   The funny guy seems to be a little bummed about their breakup, but he has a good attitude that will carry him forward, at least. “Even though it’s sad that Britt & I are no longer together, I want to thank everyone for all the love & support you’ve shown us,” he said. “She’s a special girl and deserves nothing but the best.”  He ended his post with the following shout-out to her, “I’m glad we’re still friends (notice the side hug in the pic ). Peace & Love!” On July 17, Britt Nilsson explained her breakup with Brady. Though she also had kind things to say about their relationship, her response was not as campy as Brady’s … but really, few are.

Eric Hill Death Shakes The Bachelorette Cast; Andi Dorfman Racked With Guilt

The Bachelorette was rocked by the death of Eric Hill, which took place during the season, and last night, we saw the reaction of the remaining cast members. As The Bachelorette spoilers indicated, there was no delay in filming after star Andi Dorfman and her final four suitors found out the tragic news. It sure had an impact, though, after Chris Harrison summoned the five to his home to personally tell them that Hill died following a paragliding accident. Stunned silence and tears filled the room, as Nick Viall, Josh Murray, Chris Soules and Marcus Grodd reacted stoically and Andi soon breaking down. “You all know, Eric Hill,” Chris Harrison began, struggling himself. “He, a couple of days ago, was in Utah paragliding and was in a serious accident.” “We knew he was hurt bad, we just didn’t know how bad. We learned this morning that he passed away,” he said, to the astonishment of his co-stars. “It just puts it in perspective, there’s so much more to all this … there’s life. People have lives here,” Andi said as the producers and crew comforted her. “I can’t believe that was my last conversation with him,” she sobbed, referring to the episode in which Eric Hill left the show after questioning her sincerity. Hill told her that she was wearing a “poker face” and they got into an argument. Following that, she was extremely upset and he departed the ABC series. An adventurer and global thrill-seeker, Hill passed away at the age of 30 just a few weeks later, obviously while the end of the season was still being filmed. Going into the rose ceremony, Andi Dorfman admitted to Harrison that she felt guilty and wasn’t sure how to go forward in light of what she’d just found out. She felt it was her “job to be strong for them” (the four guys) and pull it together for the men who had come this far just to be with the Atlanta A.D.A. Ultimately, she did, and Marcus was eliminated – making for a doubly painful night for both, as she clearly felt pretty bad in a different sense about that. The Bachelorette Season 10 Cast 1. Eric Eric Hill is the The Bachelorette contestant who passed away after the season, which has been dedicated to his memory.

Paul Wesley: Dating Phoebe Tonkin!

Nina Dobrev isn’t the only Vampire Diaries star moving on. With rumors circulating that this actress is now dating Derek Hough , sources tell Us Weekly that Paul Wesley has struck up a romance with former costar Phoebe Tonkin. The gorgeous pair were spotted at the Soho House on Saturday, allegedly on a double date with Ben McKenzie and Shelley Hennig, according to an eye witness. ” Paul and Phoebe were 100% romantic – they were across the table from Ben all cozied up on the couch kissing each other,” the onlooker tells the tabloid. “She had her head on his chest.” Following about two years of marriage, Wesley filed for divorce from Torrey DeVitto in July. He knows Tonkin from their (recent) days on The Vampire Diaries , though this Australian beauty left the show in May and now stars on its spinoff, The Originals . Both The Originals and The Vampire Diaries Season 5 kick off on Thursday, October 3.

Emilia Clarke and Seth MacFarlane: It’s Over!

It’s all over for Emilia Clarke and Seth MacFarlane. The unexpected couple has called it quits , a source confirms to E! News, due to conflicting schedules. “They are no longer dating,” an insider says. “It was really a location challenge. She has been in Europe shooting [ Game of Thrones Season 3 ] and he is based in California, so it was hard to make it work despite the distance. They have remained friends.” MacFarlane and Clarke first cozied up at an HBO Emmy after-party last September. He mostly recently hosted the Academy Awards – and bombed , in the opinion of many – while Clarke will soon appear on Broadway in Breakfast at Tiffany’s . It’s unlikely the Family Guy creator will ever do any better.

Bill Maher on California Tax Rate: Liberals, You May Actually Lose Me!

Even Bill Maher is feeling the sting of California’s new income tax rates. “Liberals,” he said on a recent broadcast, “you could actually lose me.” He made the comments during a panel discussion of U.S. budget policy that included MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, who blasted Rep. Paul Ryan’s proposal. “The Ryan budget is a document that says the big problems in American right now are that rich people do not have enough money,” said Maddow. Maher responded, somewhat uncharacteristically: “You know what? Rich people – I’m sure you’d agree with this – do pay the freight in this country.” Maher cited statistics that California millionaires pay nearly 40 percent income tax to the U.S. government, plus another 13 percent to the state. “I just want to say liberals … you could actually lose me . It’s outrageous what we’re paying, over 50 percent,” the left-leaning personality lamented. “I’m willing to pay my share, but yeah, it’s ridiculous.” Between national, state and local taxes, top California earners lose 55-60 percent of their income off the top. Of course, 60 percent of a million is still a ton. What do you think? Fair or unfair?

Adrienne Maloof-Paul Nassif Split Airs on Bravo, Was Definitely Not Publicity Stunt

You knew it was coming if you read any gossip over the past few months, and on last night’s episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , you saw it: Adrienne Maloof and husband Paul Nassif have split, their seemingly normal marriage collapsing from the stresses of fame, fortune and frustration. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars broke it off for good after a party she threw for her vodka line Zing, which is apparently a real thing. They got into a fight after she chastised him for not helping her prepare for the soiree, and he didn’t take kindly to her insults … standard fare for them. Later in the episode, the couple announced the breakup via a statement online, prompting Brandi Glanville to speculate that it was a PR stunt. So much for that. Both have moved on to new romances – Adrienne dated Sean Stewart, while Paul Nassif and Helen Salas are an item – and the custody fight was brutal. Looks like Brandi put her foot in her mouth again regarding Adrienne and Paul, who she also claims had an open marriage during their 10 years together. We may never know that for sure, though. Adrienne has left the show, never to return – and even pulled a no-show for this season’s reunion taping. As for Glanville, she will most definitely be back. She’s parlayed her RHOBH antics, best-selling book and outspoken persona into quite the Brand(i).

Leah Remini: Sharon Osbourne Got Me Fired!

Seven months after getting fired from The Talk, Leah Remini is finally ready to talk … and lay the blame squarely at the feet of co-star Sharon Osbourne. Responding to comments from Osbourne, Remini, 41, opened up about why she and fellow co-host Holly Robinson Peete were let go after one season. “Sharon thought me and Holly were ‘ghetto’ … not funny, awkward and didn’t know ourselves,” Remini Tweeted. “She has the power that was given to her.” Remini began tweeting in reaction to an interview Osbourne, 59, gave on The Howard Stern Show. Osbourne rebuffed Remini’s accusations Tuesday. “In response to Leah Remini’s continuous comments that I had her fired, let me just go on record to say I had absolutely nothing to do with her departure.” “I have no idea why she continues to take to Twitter to spread this false gossip.” “Leah knows that I have never been in the position to hire or fire anyone on the show,” she continued. “That being said, my only wish is that Leah would just stop all this negative, unprofessional and childish behavior.” “It’s been seven months. It’s time to move on. Leah is a very talented actress and I only wish her happiness and success.” Remini and Robinson Peete’s exits followed that of Marissa Jaret Winokur, who left the show in January 2011. After several guest co-hosts, Remini and Robinson Peete were permanently replaced by Aisha Tyler and Sheryl Underwood. Sara Gilbert and Julie Chen also appear on the daytime chat fest, CBS’ version of the The View . The Talk was recently renewed for a third season by CBS. Despite Osbourne’s comments Tuesday, Remini doesn’t seem to be backing down anytime soon. In fact, she pretty much stated that she won’t be. “If someone wants me to stop, they should call a lawyer and tell them what I am NOT telling the truth about,” she said. “We can go from there.”

Ellen DeGeneres and Bill O’Reilly on the same side of an issue? Yes, folks, anything is possible. This pair of seemingly opposite celebrities came together this week in light of an organization known as One Million Moms pushing to get Ellen fired as the JC Penney spokesperson, with the Fox News anchor referring to the protest as un-American and, simply, wrong.
