Jennifer Lopez to Alex Rodriguez: Stop Being a Player and Keep Your Rod In Your Pants!

When Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez got engaged , fans the world over rejoiced. Here was a romantic union between two of the great icons representing both the Bronx and Puerto Rico — members of the elite class of celebs so famous they can be referred to solely by a handful of letters and a dash. But rumors of trouble between J-Lo and A-Rod began soon after the couple announced their plans to get hitched. In a bizarre turn of events, fellow baseball legend Jose Canseco claimed that Rodruiguez was cheating on Lopez with Canseco’s ex-wife. A-Rod denied any wrongdoing , but given his reputation as a bit of a player (and we don’t mean on the diamond) many were skeptical of his claims. And it seems J-Lo may be among those harboring doubts about Rodriuguez’s ability ti remain faithful. According to The National Enquirer (We know — but they have broken a big story or two over the years.) Alex has a busy travel itinerary coming up, and Jen’s not taking any chances. “Jennifer has a detailed calendar with Alex’s every move mapped out — precisely where he’s got to be and when,” a source tells the tabloid. “She’s also insisted Alex has a ‘security team,’” the insider adds. “It’s four guys who watch over him 24/7, but they’re not professionals.” Not only are they not professionals, it seems the A(-Rod) Team was hand-selected by the former Yankee himself. “Alex recruited one of the guys from his gym,” says the source. “He’s just an ordinary schmuck who’s never been on tour before!” Well, we’re sure an ordinary schmuck is as capable as an experienced schmuck when it comes to the task of keeping A-Rod from getting to third base. And it’s not as though Jen’s suspicions are unfounded. In addition to the Canseco allegations, a British porn star who goes by the name Zoe Gregory recently came forward and claimed that Alex sent her a number of explicit texts, including — of course — a dick pic or two. “He seemed like a needy, horny bloke,” Gregory told The Enquirer . Add that to the tabloid’s previous claims about A-Rod’s infidelity , and it’s not hard to see why Jenny From the Block might be ready to kick her man to the curb.

Ashton Kutcher Testifies in Serial Killer Case, Says He Was "Freaking Out" After Friend was Murdered

Ashton Kutcher took the witness stand on Wednesday and testified in the trial of an alleged serial killer nicknamed the “Hollywood Ripper.” We know that sounds like the plot of the actor’s next movie, but this was very much a real-life situation. And a horribly scary one at that. The man on trial is named Michael Gargiulo. He faces two counts of murder in connection with the deaths of two women, including Kutcher’s friend Ashley Ellerin. Kutcher explained in court how he had planned to meet up with Ellerin way back on the night of February 21, 2001 after the two had met the previous December. Instead, however, prosecutors say Gargiulo snuck into the woman’s residence and stabbed her 47 times while she was getting ready to go on what would have been her first date with the star.  According to Kutcher (under oath), he and Ellerin had spoken on the phone earlier on the aforementioned date to finalize their plans. However, he was unable to get back in touch with her later that day and eventually showed up around 10:30 p.m. to her home — but nobody answered the door when he knocked. Kutcher testified he “just assumed she had gone out with her friend and bailed.” This made sense to Kutcher because he had arrived a little bit late after watching the Grammy Awards at a friend’s house. “I assumed she had left for the night and I was late and she was upset,” he said. The authorities, though, believe Ellerin had been murdered prior to Kutcher showing up on her doorstep. Kutcher said he looked through the window and saw what he thought were wine stains on the floor, but did not find that alarming and left. “I remember the next day after I heard about what happened, I went to the detectives and said, ‘My fingerprints are on the door,'” Kutcher testified, adding: “I was freaking out.” Kutcher testified for about 40 minutes… with Ellerin’s father present the whole time. As for the horrible night in question, Ellerin’s roommate found her dead in the hallway outside her bathroom. Prosecutors allege Gargiulo, whom they called a “serial sexual-thrill killer,” entered the house and stabbed Ellerin 47 times. He has pleaded not guilty to two charges of murder and one of attempted murder in attacks between 2001 and 2008. He is charged separately with killing an 18-year-old Glenview, Illinois, woman, and is awaiting trial there for that incident. The 41-year-old actor, who is now married to actress Mila Kunis, is one of more than 100 witnesses who have or are scheduled to testify in the murder trial of 43-year-old Gargiulo. He lived right down the street from Ellerin and met her in the fall of 2000 when he asked if she needed help fixing a flat tire outside her home. Friends have said Gargiulo would show up at this residence without an invitation and was often seen in the street, surveilling Ellerin. Lawyers say Kutcher’s testimony is part of the “chronology of this case” that shows “there was a narrow, very narrow window of opportunity for someone to get into the house and murder Ashley, and whoever that person was must have been watching.” These same attorneys are seeking the death penalty for Gargiulo.

“I Was One Of Those People Who Knew I Would Be A Mother Later In Life”: Meagan Good’s Ready To Have Kids

Continued here:

Source: Gregg DeGuire / Getty Via Madamenoire : In an exclusive sneak peek of an upcoming episode of  STEVE , as in Steve Harvey’s talk show,   Meagan Good  opens up about her desire to be a mother. The 37-year-old visited the show with her  Intruder  co-star Michael Ealy , and at one point in the conversation, Ealy’s son is brought up. This becomes a segue into talking about whether or not she and husband  DeVon Franklin  plan to have children. “Now Meagan, you just sitting here listening to this conversation about these kids and everything…” Harvey says in the clip, putting Good on the spot without formally asking the question. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.  ( Terms and conditions ). After laughing, Good decides to answer. “I’ma say this, and it’s funny because I usually don’t talk about it because I was one of those people who knew I would be a mother later in life,” she said. “And we talk about it a lot. Like, [Michael Ealy] basically tried to convince me to start like last year. But now I think I’m in a place now where I’m actually ready.” As the crowd applauds, she and Harvey have a moment, somewhat emotional and centered in faith, where he tells her that she would be a great parent. “Do you have any idea how fabulous of a mother you would be?” he asks. “I receive that,” she says in response. “Thank you.” Sign Up For Our Newsletter!

This isn’t the first time that Good has been put on the spot, publicly, about her plans for motherhood. Early last year the topic was brought up by Loni Love on  The Real . “You know, I’m a take my time,” Good said when Love told her she and Franklin would have some “pretty” kids. “I had two monkeys a few years ago, and now I have two hairless cats so I’m kind of like a never-neverland person. So I’m going to wait.” “In the right time,” she added. “I’m going to take my time, but in the right time we’ll have them. We definitely want them though.” SEE ALSO:  Trailer: Dennis Quaid Is Meagan Good and Michael Ealy’s Worst Nightmare In ‘The Intruder’ [VIDEO] I’ve already spoken in the past about how I don’t like that people ask married folks, whether privately or publicly, when they’re going to have children. You never know what people are going through behind the scenes. Also, they can’t often just decide they’re ready to be parents and it automatically happens. Some things are out of our overall control. However, if she and her husband are thinking about starting to make an effort to expand their family, I wish them the best of luck. As she said in the past, in the right time, everything will work out, and that time is not dictated by the world. Check out a clip of her chat with Harvey, which airs on Friday on NBC.

All About Me: Twitter Is STILL Dragging Nene For Making Eva’s Wedding All About Her…Is It Fair?!

Source: Bravo / Getty Nene Stealing Eva’s Shine? This week’s episode of Real Housewives Of Atlanta was supposed to be all about Eva. It was her marriage, her glorious moment with her boo and his tremendous vows . However, so much of the episode was focused on Nene and her problems with her marriage. She was complaining and said about her seemingly impending divorce from Gregg. However, just yesterday she denied that there was any divorce happening at all. So was this all for attention? Was this all for ratings? Bravo is catching a ton of flack as well for their part in the whole situation as they were splicing images of Nene’s wedding with Eva’s, making the episode as much about Nene as the woman of the hour. Word? So who is to blame? Wait Eva’s wedding wasn’t the season finale and she had to share her spotlight with Nene’s drama… #RHOA pic.twitter.com/XVwDVv4DhD — Epiphany (@MyEpiphanyB) March 18, 2019 Twitter is dragging everyone and it’s petty as hell.

Keonna talked about her relationship with Nick in an interview with Essence , saying, “Me and Nick have lots of history. We’ve been in and out of each other’s lives and we’ve dated other people, we have still always managed to keep in touch. It’s something that no one will be able to understand. We don’t even really understand. We’re just like, ‘You know what, we have these kids. You know, we are friends.’ We share each other’s deepest, darkest secrets. We talk a lot. We have that type of friendship.” The announcement of baby number three came as a surprise to many fans, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t in the plans all along. The couple revealed earlier in the month that they wanted another child when their family attended the premier of Captain Marvel and Nick said he wanted “one more.” Congrats to the happy family on their new addition!

Brendan McLoughlin Cheated on Fiancee, Knocked Up Mistress: Report

Brendan McLoughlin is probably very happy that he’s now married to Miranda Lambert. But the heretofore unknown police officer is probably less than thrilled that his newfound fame has opened up his closet to the public… … especially when that closest is allegedly filled with a pretty huge skeleton. McLoughlin has found himself all over the news of late because Lambert stunned Instagram followers on Sunday when she announced that she actually married this random person. The country superstar has never once uttered his name prior to this revealing post, but then shared two photos from her wedding day over the weekend and wrote as a caption to them both: In honor of Valentine’s Day I wanted to share some news. I met the love of my life. And we got hitched! My heart is full.  Thank you Brendan Mcloughlin for loving me for…. me. Follow-up reports have since confirmed that Lambert and McLoughlin got married on January 26 in Tennessee. With the Internet scrambling to learn as much as possible about this Brendan McLoughlin fella, the following has been reported: 1. McLoughlin is police officer from New York. 2. McLoughlin once created a profile on a modeling website, hoping to use turn his attractive appearance into an occupation. 3. McLoughlin is an avid runner. 4. McLoughlin is a father of a baby only just born this past November. And it’s this final fact that is now the subject of controversy. According to Us Weekly, McLoughlin was engaged to someone named Jackie Bruno last year — only to not only cheat on her, but to get the woman with whom he cheated PREGNANT. The tabloid quotes Jackie’s mother, Carol, is relaying this story to its readers. “She was engaged to Brendan and he cheated on her and got another girl pregnant,” Carol told Us . “It’s all true.” If this allegation is valid, then the child born just three months ago to McLoughlin belongs to his mistress, which would explain why he was able to move on so quickly to Lambert. Radar Online has alleged that Lambert and McLoughlin met a mere three days before the latter became a father. They crossed paths in early November when Lambert was in town to play a song on Good Morning America and McLoughlin was assigned to the South Midtown Precinct in The Big Apple at the time. Less than a week later, Kaihla Rettinger reportedly gave birth to her and Brendan’s baby, a boy named Landon. The cop reportedly posted a since-deleted photo, where he’s cradling his newborn and next to which he wrote: “Blessed to have a healthy son. Welcome my boy, Landon James McLoughlin 11/5/18.” Carol tells Us Weekly that her daughter was “thrown for a loop” and had “no clue” McLoughlin was cheating on her. She also says it was actually Rettinger who told Jackie of her pregnancy. “The girl contacted her. Jackie was in Sweden playing professional soccer, got injured and came home and the girl contacted her. She broke the news to her.. “[Brendan] tried to deny it and then begged her to stay with him. “She was only going for a few months to play, he was begging her to marry him before she left, even though he knew the girl was pregnant.” Lambert, of course, ended her four-year marriage to Blake Shelton in 2015. She reportedly did not tell him of her plans to marry again last month, not that she was under any obligation to do so. In between these weddings, Lambert dated Evan Felker… who happened to be married when he got together with the artist . It sure sounds like Miranda Lambert is drawn to drama, doesn’t it?

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: Who Got Engaged?

Porsha Williams and Dennis McKinley’s relationship may have started with a bunch of hurdles, but Sunday’s episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta showed that they were in it for the long haul.  Dennis had been dropping hints about a proposal to Williams for quite some time, so she kept getting her hopes up only to be let down.  Porsha and Dennis went out for dinner and drinks with Shamari and Ronnie DeVoe. That’s when Dennis opened up to Ronnie about his plans.  “Oh, you’re gonna propose on Friday?!” Ronnie whispered in excitement. “Damn, son! You got it all mapped out?” “I got it mapped out. She don’t know,” Dennis replied before confirming that his romantic plans involved a helicopter ride.  Thankfully, Lauren, Porsha’s sister was in the know from the get-go, so she was on hand to help out in any way she could.  That meant keeping up the ruse that Porsha was on her way to a charity event.  “For real, I’m legit scared,” Porsha said of getting on a helicopter. “I actually texted [Dennis] the other day, and I was like, ‘I don’t think I even wanna do the thing. Just cancel it. Let’s just do something else.’ And he sounded so disappointed that we weren’t gonna go. So I was like, ‘Okay, you know what? Fine. We’ll go.'” When the day arrived, Porsha and Dennis managed to get in and out of the helicopter without any issues.  That was a huge positive given how scared Porsha was. Williams was concerned because there were no other people around.  “They’re probably here already,” Dennis replied. “They can only fit one couple at a time.” Porsha totally bought it. “I’m glad I got my makeup done!” Porsha said as the duo walked into the high-class building.  In a truly romantic moment, Porsha realized her favorite song was playing. When the pair got to the room, there were flowers, photographers and even the singer of her favorite song. “Would you like to be Mrs. McKinley?” Dennis said as he got down on one knee. Porsha gleefully accepted.  “You don’t understand how many times we have sung this song in the car to each other,” Porsha said in a confessional. “I have my parts, he has his parts, and Lil’ Mo is here singing it to us! I’ve dreamed about how he was gonna propose. I thought he was gonna propose in Miami, I thought he was gonna propose here, I thought he was gonna propose there.” “But for him to do it like this with the helicopter and Lil’ Mo and all the flowers and — can we talk about the ring? He did that! Thank you, boo!” “Just thinking about how alone I was at first, and now,” Porsha said as she fought back tears. “No one will ever understand what it means for me to have gone through a miscarriage before, all by myself, without the person who made that child with me as my support, to now be pregnant and have the man who is the father of my child be so loving, so thoughtful. It means the world to me.” Elsewhere on this romantic installment: – Kand and Todd continued their quest to have another child. Todd was still on the fence of taking the surrogacy route, but started to question everything when they met Shandi, a potential person who could carry their child.  – Eva tried to find the perfect dress for her upcoming wedding, but she was shocked to learn the one she had her eye on could not be made in time.  – Nene and Gregg couldn’t stop arguing, and Nene started to wonder whether their relationship was, once again, about to come to an end.  What did you think of all the twists?
