Jennifer Lopez Celebrates Two Years With Alex Rodriguez, Achieves #RelationshipGoals!

Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez’s blossoming relationship is blowing us all away. And definitely leaving us a little jealous. The happy couple celebrated their second anniversary on Sunday and Jen didn’t hold back any of her emotions.  The Second Act star shared a slideshow of photos of the two as she gushed about her favorite qualities of the former baseball star.  “Two years of laughter… two years of fun…two years of adventure…of excitement, of growing and learning… of true friendship and so much love!!”  And that was just the beginning of her very affectionate message.  She continued “you make my world a more beautiful safe and stable space… in the midst of our ever-changing, ever-moving life…you make me feel like a teenager starting out all over again.”  How cute is that? And…there’s more!  J. Lo adores her boyfriend’s love for spontaneity, saying “every time I think I have you pegged, you surprise me in the most wonderful ways reminding me how blessed I am to have found you now in this moment at this time… our time… TeAmo Macho” she concluded.  Wow. If it was any other couple sharing all their sappy feelings, I don’t think I could stomach it.  But, I have been a fan of this duo since their first striking appearance as a pair at the Met Gala back in 2017. Since then, they have only proven to be one of the happiest and most supportive couples in Hollywood.  From A-Rod being her biggest fan during her Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award performance at the 2018 MTV VMAs to working out side-by-side together in Instagram videos. The two are truly a power couple.  And “an engagement is definitely on the horizon,” says an inside source at  US Weekly. “Alex is obsessed with Jen and spends as much time as he can with her.”  J. Lo has been married three other times, to Ojani Noa from 1997-1998, Cris Judd from 2001-2003 and then Marc Anthony from 2004-2014 who she shares two 10-year-old twins, Max and Emme with. For Alex, he has two children as well, Natasha, 14, and Ella, 10, with his ex-wife Cynthia Scurtis.  Already having celebrated holidays together and posing for group photos, the two families are blending well together and undoubtedly melting all of our hearts.  Everything is working out flawlessly for the couple and their families, and we wish them a very Happy Anniversary!  Please bless us with many, many more!

Chris Lopez Defends Kailyn Lowry Against Angry Twitter Mob

We don't want to jump to any conclusions or anything, but… … Kailyn Lowry and Chris Lopez are totally back together! We're (mostly) kidding, although we have been given a new reason to think there's hope yet for these two crazy kids. There's been chatter for weeks that Lowry and Lopez were once again a romantic item and we're now more convinced than ever that it could be true. How come? What did Lopez do? Scroll down to find out! 1. This All Started with… Preeclampsia? Yes. Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure and signs of damage to another organ system, most often the liver and kidneys. 2. Okay. So?!? Lowry was open about suffering from this condition back when she was pregnant with Lux. 3. That Sucks for Her. Yes it does. And yet she was recently taken to task by social media trolls, one of whom wrote: “Pre Eclampsia is no joke, and definitely not some storyline filler. She should have some respect for those who weren’t as lucky as [I was] to survive [the illness].” 4. Why Do Folks Think Kailyn Was Lying? We have no idea. Haters are just gonna hate. 5. Chris to the Rescue! Made aware of the insults being hurled his baby mama’s way, Lopez rushed to Kailyn’s defense. 6. What Did He Write? “Maybe if you stop worrying bout me and mine. [You’d] probably have [an] easier pregnancy. Lol hating on other [people’s] lives so much will do that to you…hope it’s a healthy baby [though].” View Slideshow

Jennifer Lopez Getting Slutty for a Magazine of the Day

Here’s J.Lo in some magazine wearing the silliest of dresses because it is more of a cape…as it doesn’t really cover 25-50 percent of her…allowing her to show off her fitness and thickness in it’s 50s like she was still in her 20s because a huge amount of money goes into her trying to look as good as she can for as long as she can thanks to being rich and being vain. This is the kind of photo people will celebrate, they will call fierce and daring and inspiring, partially because the media is fake and sucks up to all these people all the fucking time….I’ve seen it for my entire existence as a blogger…like no one wants to call out an old whore for being an old whore…but instead want to pretend this shamelessness and exhibitionism is empowering… I remember when I first saw publicist spin stories many years ago and I laughed because the media ran the spun story because they didn’t want to be ousted by the celebrity, network, or whoever else was behind the publicist….they didn’t want to lose advertisers…so they just gave into the powers that be… Now, I don’t midn this J.Lo in a cape, not all cape wearers are heroes bullshit, but it is a little fucking shameless and attention seeking, like the old lady at the night club showing everyone her pussy to get noticed or entice someone to fuck her…because they are too busy looking at young hot chicks dance…you know what I mean…it’s a Look at me, I’ve sucked mad dick and can do things to you a young girl doesn’t even know exists, only she doesn’t realize that young girls grew up on porn and are WELL aware of what they need to do to get things done… Here’s a celebration of having a chef, trainer, all the beauty products, strategic cosmetic surgery….and all the other shit J.Lo puts into looking her best at 50….and ideally it acts as inspiration for all girls to wear dresses like this out in public…from Prom to Bar Mitzvahs to Weddings and funerals….integrate this look… JOIN THE NEWSLETTER YOU ASSHOLES!

Jennifer Lopez Is A 48-Year-Old Insta-Wannabe

I know it’s tough out there for a hottie, especially when they’re in their late 40s like Jennifer Lopez is. It gets harder and harder to keep those 15 minutes going. And I guess that’s why J-Lo has been Snapchatting cleavage pictures like some 20-something Insta-wannabe. It’d be sad, if it wasn’t so damn hot. So, uh, nevermind, keep ’em coming, please!

Kailyn Lowry: Fighting Chris Lopez for Custody of Their Baby?!

Kailyn Lowry really does have a wonderful little life, doesn’t she? She has a beautiful home with three beautiful children, one a precious little newborn she just brought home. She just finished her bachelor’s degree in May — the first Teen Mom to complete an undergraduate degree! — and it looks like she’s setting herself up well for when the MTV paychecks dry up. In all the recent photos she’s shared of herself with her kids, she looks really, really happy. It’s nice to see. But while there are a whole lot of good things going for Kailyn, it can’t be denied that there’s a fair bit of drama going on behind the scenes. Or, well, not “behind the scenes,” really. It’s pretty much just out there in the open. And that’s largely because of the father of her third child, Chris Lopez. We’ve been hearing all about Chris ever since Kailyn confirmed he was the baby’s father — and the things we’ve heard haven’t been very good. Throughout her pregnancy, we heard that he’d abandoned her, and she even said that she was going to be a single mom this time around. Report after report claimed that Chris didn’t want anything to do with her or their baby, and that was pretty heartbreaking. But then, something amazing happened! She revealed in an interview that he was there in the delivery room when she gave birth to the precious but still unnamed Baby Lo, and he also drove them home from the hospital. And yes, that’s pretty much the bare minimum a new father should do, but it was definitely a step in the right direction. In the past few weeks, various reports have claimed that Chris can’t seem to make up his mind on how active of a parent he wants to be. Shortly after the birth, he visited his new son frequently, but then he allegedly bailed again . But as a source now tells Hollywood Life, he’s doing the best he can. “Kailyn and Chris have been spending more time together since the baby’s birth, trying to make the whole difficult situation work,” the source says. “He is doing his best to be a good father and to treat Kailyn better. Chris loves their little baby and wants to make sure he has a healthy relationship with Kailyn.” That’s nice, right? Though they’re both “overwhelmed with the new baby” right now, “he is there and doing what he feels is the right thing.” “Kailyn is happy that he is present and helping with diapers and late night feedings, so all is well with them … for now at least.” Unfortunately, as soon as that source told that sweet little story, another popped up with a slightly different take on things. Because even though Chris is apparently trying, “it’s just not working out.” “At this point, having raised two babies already, Kailyn is an expert when it comes to caring for the baby,” this source alleges. “Frankly, Chris is just getting in her way and causing extra problems.” But someone getting in the way of her new mom groove may be the least of her problems soon … The supposed Kailyn insider says that Chris’ mother is urging him “to apply for full time custody of her grandchild.” “Chris has no desire to try and take his kid away from Kailyn,” which is good, “but his mom is concerned about visitation rights.” It’s not just that though — his mother is also said to be concerned about Kailyn’s “lifestyle,” as well as “the fact that she has three children from three fathers.” “Chris’ mom really wants Baby Lo to be raised by her family and standards.” Which, if true, is pretty rich, considering that her family raised Chris, a guy who basically abandoned a woman after he got her pregnant and could very well end up abandoning his son, too. Oh, Kailyn, just when it looked like things couldn’t get messier … View Slideshow: Teen Mom & Teen Mom 2: The Complete Babies and Children Guide!

Chris Cornell: Were Drugs Involved In His Death?

Yesterday, the world awoke to the sad news that Soundgarden and Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell had been found dead in a Detroit hotel room just hours after performing for a sell-out crowd. It was later revealed that Cornell’s cause of death was suicide by hanging, and the initial police report was confirmed by Wayne County medical examiners on Thursday evening. While suicide often comes as an utter shock to the victim’s loved ones, Cornell’s wife Vicky says that she’s stunned to the point that she doesn’t fully accept the medical examiner’s ruling. Vicky has reportedly told friends that in all their time together, Chris never gave any indication that he was depressed or inclined toward self-harm. In a statement issued today , Vicky revealed that she became concerned after speaking with him on the night of his death, but not because he sounded suicidal. Vicky says that “Chris was slurring his words” in their second phone conversation of the night, and she became concerned when he revealed that he “may have taken an extra Ativan or two.” Ativan is a brand name for lorazepam, an anti-anxiety medication that’s often used to treat symptoms of withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs. Chris struggled with addiction throughout much of his adult life, but sources say he hasn’t had a drink or consumed in illicit substance since he checked into rehab back in 2003. Now, lawyers for the family are taking action to ensure that the investigation continues in order to determine if drugs played a role in Chris’ decision to commit suicide. “The family believes if Chris took his life, he did not know what he was doing, and that drugs or other substances may have affected his actions,” reads a statement issued by Cornell family attorneys just moments ago. Those who encountered Cornell in his final hours say the singer seemed upbeat and excited for the future.  But fans at his final concert noted that there was an elegiac tone to the night’s performance: “My first impression was that Chris was more joyous than I’d ever seen him before,” attendee Ken Settle tells People magazine.  “He’d always been, back in the early days especially, kind of a brooding performer, more introspective, sometimes looking down at his guitar most of the time with his hair in his face. At this show, it was the opposite of that.” Settle notes that there were two details that he finds morbid in retrospect: Settle says that while bantering with the crowd, Cornell commented, “I feel really sorry for the next city,” a remark that may have had an ominous tone. View Slideshow: Chris Cornell: Mourned, Remembered by Stars Everywhere He also points out that Cornell concluded the show with a rendition of Led Zeppelin’s “In My Time of Dying”, a choice that was likely just a macabre coincidence. In a statement issued today, Vicky Cornell thanked fans for their support and paid tribute to Chris as a devoted husband and father: “Chris’s death is a loss that escapes words and has created an emptiness in my heart that will never be filled,” Vicky said. “As everyone who knew him commented, Chris was a devoted father and husband. He was my best friend. His world revolved around his family first and of course, his music, second.” She concluded: “The outpouring of love and support from his fans, friends, and family means so much more to us than anyone can know. Thank you for that, and for understanding how difficult this is for us.” Chris Cornell Dead: Watch His Final, Tragic Performance

Steve Harvey Lawsuit: Ex-Wife Alleges Mental Torture, "Soul Murdering"

In a controversial letter to employees that went viral last week, Steve Harvey demanded to be left alone . But Mary L. Vaughn apparently did not get the memo. The comedian’s ex-wife is coming strong after the man she says scorned her in nearly every way imaginable, filing a $60 million lawsuit against Harvey that paints him in an even worse light than that infamous letter. Vaughn and Harvey were married from 1996 through 2005. During their time together, the former was allegedly subjected to “prolonged torture with the infliction of severe mental pain and suffering,” according to court documents obtained by Entertainment Tonight. These same legal papers also claim that Vaughn “attempted suicide by self-medicating [in] an effort to stop the pain.” Yikes . They go on to allege that Harvey and his lawyer caused “severe emotional distress” that led to a litany of medical conditions for not only Vaughn … but her immediate family over the past 15 years or so. Pretty damning accusations, that’s for certain. And Vaughn isn’t even finished. She’s suing the talk show host for child endangerment, torture, kidnapping, breach of contract, conspiracy against rights, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and “soul murdering.” The lawsuit even cites such terms/actions as harassment , brainwashing and theft by deception . Harvey and Vaughn share a 10-year old son, Wynton. This isn’t the first time the latter has aired severe accusations against Harvey, having previously gone off on him via a YouTube video. She was even jailed for 30 days in 2013 for contempt of court after violating the terms of a gag order in the couple’s divorce. Harvey has three kids from his first marriage and has been the husband of third wife Marjorie since 2007. Just a few days ago, Harvey made negative headlines after the Internet learned that he sent a memo to employees last year in which he laid out a series of ground rules. They all boiled down to Harvey wanting total and complete privacy at work, with excerpts including the following demands: Do not come to my dressing room unless invited. Do not approach me while I’m in the makeup chair unless I ask to speak with you directly. Do not wait in the hallway to speak to me… make an appointment. The star eventually acknowledged that he sent this letter, but made no apologies for how much of a diva it made him sound like. “I could not find a way to walk from the stage to my dressing room, to sit in my makeup chair, to walk from my dressing room to the stage or to just sit and have lunch without somebody just walking in,” Harvey explained to ET , adding: “I’ve always had a policy where, you know, you can come and talk to me – so many people are great around here, but some of them just started taking advantage of it… “I just didn’t want to be in this prison anymore where I had to be in this little room, scared to go out and take a breath of fresh air without somebody approaching me, so I wrote the letter.” Vaughn would likely say that she knows a thing or two about being stuck in a prison when it comes to Harvey. In response to her lawsuit, Steve’s attorney Brandon Williams told TMZ the followingL “Mr. Harvey vehemently denies any allegations set forth in the lawsuit. The Complaint is meritless, frivolous and the allegations are completely false. “We will vigorously defend/counterclaim against the Complaint.”
