The woman who many consider to be the world’s most perfect looking human just gave birth to an absolute perfect baby. Indeed, congratulations are in order for Kate Upton: The supermodel just gave birth to her very first child! The 26-year old shared the blessed news on Saturday evening, alerting Instagram followers to the name and the gender of her and husband Justin Verlander’s precious offspring. We’ll let Upton take it from here… “Genevieve Upton Verlander. 11.7.18,” Kate simply wrote, confirming that the newborn came into official existence this past Wednesday. She included with this message a gorgeous black-and-white snapshot of little Genevieve… … and here it is! Well done, Kate and Justin. Verlander, who works as one of the best starting pitchers in all of Major League Baseball, posted a photo of the couple holding their little one’s hand. He wrote as a caption: “Welcome to the world Genevieve Upton Verlander. You stole my [heart] the first second I met you!!! 11.7.2018.” Verlander also penned a sweet message to Upton after the couple confirmed her pregnancy in July . “You’re going to be the most amazing Mom!! I can’t wait to start this new journey with you!” he gushed on Instagram at the time, adding: “You’re the most thoughtful, loving, caring, and strong woman I’ve ever met! I’m so proud that our little one is going to be raised in this world by a woman like you! I love you so much.” Upton and Verlander got married the knot in Tuscany, Italy, in November of 2017, mere days after the pitcher and the Houston Astros won the 2017 World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. During the baseball season that recently concluded, Verlander credited Upton for turning both his career and his life around. Speaking to Bleacher Report about his outlook after going through multiple injuries, Verlander said the following a few months ago: “Who knows if I’m even here if it wasn’t for her? “I really thought it was the end. … She was instrumental in me not … like, jumping off a bridge.” Wow, huh? And now she’s also been also rather instrumental in Verlander becoming a dad. We send these two our very best wishes.
Is a life of crime about to pay off for Joe Giudice and his family? Again? A day after Joe and Teresa Giudice banked $75,000 for posing on Us Weekly (with Teresa donning prison garb, naturally), insiders confirm that the family is in negotiations with E! on another reality series. It would reportedly feature Joe and his four daughters (Gia, Milania, Gabriella and Audriana) adjusting to life at home with their prime money maker loved one around. Joe, of course, is scheduled to serve over 40 months in prison himself once Teresa goes free. Talks are in the very early stages, but we can confirm the series would be separate from any future seasons of The Real Housewives of New Jersey . The future of that show and Teresa’s place on it remain in the air at this time. According to E! – which has also greenlit a show called Dash Dolls about employees of the Kardashians, proving it has no shame or semblance of good taste – Joe is on board with his own series. Teresa is actually the one hesitating at the moment, wanting to learn as much as she can before signing off on the project. In other words: show her the money, producers, and then she’ll gladly sign on the dotted line. Once that happens, Joe Giudice will immediately get added to this list of reality stars: 23 Biggest Douchebags on Reality TV 1. Jon Gosselin View Photo Jon Gosselin is one of the most frequent results if you run a Google image search on “reality TV douchebag.” True story. 2. Jax Taylor View Photo Vanderpump Rules’ Jax Taylor is perhaps the biggest d-bag on reality TV. It’s a bold statement, but he continues to lower the bar on a weekly basis. 3. Spencer Pratt View Photo Spencer Pratt is, in a sense, the man all fame-grubbing reality TV douchebags of today are measured against. A trailblazing antagonist on The Hills, Pratt redefined the role of reality TV villain, eventually wearing out his welcome and blowing through $10 million with his constant scheming and publicity whoring before exiling himself to his parents’ guest house with wife Heidi Montag. 4. The Situation View Photo Mike Sorrentino, a.k.a. The Situation from Jersey Shore, may be as full of himself as any man who has ever lived. So important was Sitch, in the mind of Sitch, that his nickname had a nickname and everything he did had to be an acronym or catch phrase. Many of which were hilarious, granted. But still … total douche. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 5. Adam Lind View Photo Adam Lind of Teen Mom 2 is basically a terrible boyfriend, father, and human being in general who has tormented Chelsea Houska (and viewers) from the get-go on the MTV reality staple. 6. Dean McDermott View Photo Dean McDermott has really entered the upper echelon of this category since his cheating ways have been exposed and recounted ad nauseam on True Tori. 7. Juan Pablo Galavis View Photo Definitely the biggest douche ever to be named The Bachelor, and one of the biggest in all of reality TV history. 8. Tom Sandoval View Photo Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules is an epic d-bag. He and Jax Taylor could win any two-man douche competition in existence. Fortunately no such thing exists … yet. That would make a good show, Bravo. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 9. Adam Levine View Photo There’s a lot to like about Adam Levine, honestly. It’s just that after five hours a week on TV and every freaking second on the radio, you start to focus more on the d-bag qualities just beneath (or on) the surface. 10. Scott Disick View Photo We thoroughly enjoy Scott Disick’s comic relief on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons, and Kourtney’s far from perfect herself, but Lord D. exhibits some major d-bag qualities from time to time. 11. Ryan Lochte View Photo One word says it all: JEAH. 12. Slade Smiley View Photo He mellowed out slightly in later seasons, and showed some signs of personal growth, but there was no one douchier than Slade Smiley during his early tenure on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 13. Guy Fieri View Photo Come on. Just look at the man. 14. Jesse James View Photo Nothing Jesse James did on Monster Garage was that bad, but off the set, he cheated on America’s Sweetheart Sandra Bullock (and later Kat Von D) numerous times and has posed for several Nazi-themed photos. Good riddance. 15. Kris Jenner View Photo Most people considered d-bags are male, but when you are universally disliked, obnoxious, full of yourself and synonymous with “Momager,” well, you’re in the club, Kris Jenner. 16. Donald Trump View Photo Donald Trump of The Apprentice fame is pretty much the personification of the term. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 17. Hank Baskett View Photo Hank Baskett never struck us as a douchebag, but as the new season of Kendra on Top has taught us, the dude has easily crossed that threshold. 18. Apollo Nida View Photo Apollo Nida is such a douche that society decided he needed to be locked up for eight years to think about his douchey actions. Phaedra Parks’ ex is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for fraud, but we like to think the judge threw the book at him for 4 million counts of being a D-bag. 19. Teresa Giudice View Photo Teresa is another real-life villainess who proves that you don’t need to be a man to be both a douche bag AND a felon. Teresa was despised by fans and castmates alike long before she was convicted of fraud, and soon she’ll have the pleasure of working her charm on a group of gals who know how to make shivs out of toothbrushes. That should end well! 20. John Rocker View Photo John Rocker was the pitcher fans loved to hate during his stint as a major league baseball player. Now that he’s a contestant on the 29th season of Survivor, a whole generation is getting a taste of Rocker’s douchey way. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 21. Simon Cowell View Photo We’ve saved the original reality douche bag for last. Simon is the ultimate D-bag, not because he crushed so many dreams during his eight seasons as a judge on American, but because he seemed to take so much pleasure in it. 22. Patti Stanger View Photo Patti Stanger, the Millionaire Matchmaker, sets up rich d-bags on dates for a living, yet none of the relationships actually work and her entire show seems more like a vanity project for her massive ego, so she makes the list. 23. The Rich Kids of Beverly Hills (Collectively) View Photo The Rich Kids of Beverly Hills (sorry, #RichKids of Beverly Hills) is a show basically created around the fact that they are all douchebags. So take your pick of the crew. The End. Up Next: ” 23 Biggest Douchebags on Reality TV .” We’ll be redirecting you shortly…
Modeling It Girl Kate Upton is apparently reminding some sports fans of another famous blonde, Jessica Simpson. Why? Look at their impact on players! The Sports Illustrated beauty is rumored to be dating Detroit Tigers ace Justin Verlander, arguably the best pitcher in all of Major League Baseball … … who promptly got shellacked in Tuesday’s All-Star Game. Rumors immediately began flying that Upton was to blame for his effort – just as Dallas Cowboys fans once blamed another blonde for Tony Romo’s woes. Simpson was notably on hand (in a pink Romo jersey) for some of his worst games in a Dallas uniform, leading fans to label her a curse, jinx, and worse. “Kate Upton and Justin Verlander? Suddenly everything makes sense,” read a headline in the Los Angeles Times , calling her “the only logical explanation.” An Examiner headline hilariously read after the pitcher got rocked, “Kate Upton’s bikini body blamed for Justin Verlander’s poor All-Star Game inning.” If he was envisioning her Cat Daddy video or even just Kate Upton bikini photos , it would be easy to see why. But it gets better than this one incident: Before Verlander, Upton was previously linked to New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez, a long-touted prospect who has since become mediocre. Think about it … how could anyone focus. Fortunately for Jess’ fiance, former NFL player Eric Johnson , his career was already over when they got together. The real question: Who’d you rather … [Photos: WENN.com]

You know you are already wondering if the police were called, since they look all white: In the wake of this week’s junior varsity tournament baseball game that ended in a brawl, parents said eight JV players have been suspended and kicked off the Yuba City High School team. Officials at Yuba City Unified School District would not confirm the punishment meted out so far, but parents said they’ve spoken among themselves and many think the punishment was too extreme. “Was our pitcher wrong? Absolutely. Nobody is denying that. However, are our boys supposed to sit back while their whole dugout comes and tackles our pitcher?,” asked parent Stacy Todd, referring to the moment in the game when the pitcher for the Yuba City team threw a baseball at the first base coach after he’d allegedly called the pitcher’s mother an insulting name. Todd’s son Camryn was suspended for five days for admitting he’d thrown a punch during the fracas. She said her son did not expect to be banned from baseball for the season. “He’s devastated. He had no idea he would be kicked off the team,” Todd said. Several students at Yuba City High School said they had mixed feelings about the punishment. “I think he was just defending his mom, but I don’t think he needed to go that far as to throw the ball and rush on the coach,” Yuba City High freshman Lissette Luney said. Meanwhile, veteran umpire Sarjeet Singh said officials have to keep control of a game. “Basically, you have to see those things coming,” Singh said. “Sometimes you don’t, you don’t. But, I feel at the high school level you can see it coming.” RELATED STORY: Districts investigate brawl at youth baseball game Monday’s game at Granite Bay between Del Campo and Yuba City ended in a fight, which for a time was posted on YouTube. In the video, it appears that members of the Yuba City team charge onto the field and fighting erupts. “The administration and adults are ultimately responsible for what occurred on the baseball field,” Singh said. “They have to assume responsibility for the situation and dish out punishment as needed.” Some parents said they believe part of the blame lies on the officiating. There was only one umpire working the game, the normal number for JV baseball. “Certainly, the more adults the better,” San Juan Unified School District spokesperson Trent Allen said. “But, you do have multiple coaches, you have the ump and you hopefully have caring parents, hopefully setting a good example for students.” Although, in the video, a person who appears to be a parent is clearly seen running onto the field. “They’re trying to help,” Singh said. “But, really they’re just fueling the fire… Between the lines, no parent belongs on a baseball diamond!” Investigations by both the Yuba City Unified School District and San Juan Unified School District are underway. If warranted, punishment could range from a single game suspension to expulsion from school. “The consequences that are at hand for this kind of thing would be suspension from school, suspension from the team, being removed from the team, being placed up for expulsion,” Yuba City Unified School District Superintendent Nancy Aaberg said. “Any of our players who came out of the dugout and threw punches would certainly face disciplinary action,” Allen said. “And then, of course, we’ll look at how our adults behaved as well.” Image And Source News10/KXTV More On Bossip!

If you’re a demeanor, there’s no room to question why so many people love him. CC is making his rounds as the spokesperson for the Pepsi MAX Field of Dreams campaign. Pepsi MAX is giving fans a chance to vote for their dream team of 11 legendary players. Each time a person votes, they will be entered to win a chance to play against the fan selected players on their home field. I ( @JaySpeakEasy ) had a chance to talk to the Yankee pitcher at the MLB Fan Cave. In our brief conversation, we talked about how the Yankee season is going so far, the toughest part of the game, and hip-hop. Let’s get right into it. How do you feel about the Yankees’ season thus far? I feel pretty good. We’ve been having a pretty good year. We’re in second place right now. I think we’ve been playing really well. We had a tough loss against the Angels, but we still have a chance to make the playoffs. So we’ll go from there. What are your thoughts on catcher, Jorge Posada, being benched? It’s tough, man. He’s a legend. He’s done a lot for this organization and a lot for this city. I think it is just tough to see somebody go through that. But Posada will be right back where he belongs soon enough. I’m confident in that. How would you like the Yankee season to end? Hopefully, we win the World Series. I mean, that’s why I came to New York because we have a chance of winning it every year. Everybody knows that. That’s pretty cool and a special feeling to have. How do you balance family with being on the road and traveling majority of the year? That is a hard thing to deal with during the season, but in the summertime, my kids are out of school. I get to hang out with them and spend the time they need when the summer hits. We do whatever we can on days I’m off. But it is part of the life. I get to come home for the off season and they have at home everyday for four months. I wouldn’t trade the time with my family for anything. I know you’re a big hip hop fan. Who is the rapper you would say most represents your pitching style? Rick Ross . I think he has the style and attitude are the representation of my pitching style. He is confident and headstrong. My feel like I pitch with a confidence. That’s why I have to go with Rick Ross on that one. Plus, I’m a huge fan of his. What albums are you listening to now? Well, you know Watch The Throne just dropped so I’m bumping that heavy. That’s really it. I’m not listening to anything else as of now. Jay-Z and Kanye West have a great album out. I’m definitely enjoying all of the tracks. I have no favorite yet. Well, thank you for speaking with me. I’m just going to need one favor from you. Speak to whoever you need to speak to, but the people in the bleacher seats are going to need some shade. It’s way too hot for that. [laughs] Oh, ya’ll a little hot over there? I’ll see what I can do.
