Kailyn Lowry to Teen Mom 2 Producers: Fire Barbara Evans or I Quit!

Well folks, it looks like the neverending feud between Kailyn Lowry and Jenelle Evans has kicked into high gear once again. The latest round of trash talk comes from a surprising source — Jenelle’s controversial mother, Barbara Evans. Over the weekend Jenelle joined co-star Briana DeJesus for an impromptu Instagram Live session that featured some boozy cameos from Babs. “My mom and I are out of town for a mother/daughter weekend and filming our trip,” Jenelle told her followers. “We had some drinks at dinner and came back to the Airbnb to drink a little more. I randomly got on Instagram and saw Brittany [DeJesus] was live so I decided to join in, especially since my mom was with me.” At one point, an obviously intoxicated Barbara “joked” that she wants to ” kill Kail ” — a remark that Lowry and many others didn’t find particularly humorous. During the live feed, Babs received a call from Teen Mom 2 co-executive producer Kristen Schylinski who was understandably less than thrilled with the situation. “I need you to tell Kail that you are joking… there’s a huge sh-t storm… ,“ Kristen told Barbara on the phone. “How could you say that? …Tell her you were joking because you are, you don’t want to kill Kail,” “So earlier, I was talking to Brittany, Briana’s sister, and I said that I wanted to kill Kail and it was, everybody took it out of perspective because that’s not really what I meant. I was just doin’ a joke,” Babs slurred during the live session. “Yeah, it was only a joke,” she added. “I was only joking with Brittany, it was like I was being sarcastic, so I mean, and everybody like freaks out like I wanna go and kill the girl. “Come on, I’ve know the girl for 10 years…You can’t say anything in the public without people like freaking out, saying ya know, ‘I’m gonna go out and kill the girl with a gun.’” “It was a stupid f-king joke, just chill the f-ck out,” Jenelle quipped in response to her mom’s apology. Not surprisingly, Kail fails to see the humor in the situation. “I’m not filming until something is done,” Kail told The Ashley’s Reality Roundup on Monday. “It’s about the principle at this point,” Lowry added.  “The producers say they’re handling it. I gave them my attorney’s info and told the producers to contact my attorney and not to contact me.” Yes, it seems Kail is “pulling a Jenelle” by refusing to film, but unlike Mrs. Eason, she has good reason for taking a stand. Not surprisingly, Jenelle is doing her best to downplay the situation, as she’s likely well aware that if producers are forced to choose between her and Kail, they’re sure to go with the latter option. Jenelle tells Hollywood Life that Barb “is really upset everyone took it the wrong way and is still upset about it at this moment,” but then she then proceeds to make light of the situation. “My producer understood [it was a joke] and just reminded my mom not to use those types of words because of how offended the world gets these days,” Jenelle told the site.  “We haven’t received anymore calls from our other producers so I guess they know my mom’s intentions were just to make a joke,” she added. “My mom doesn’t like Kail because my mom knows that Kail is a troublemaker and experienced it firsthand at the last reunion that I did not attend last season.” Sounds like Jenelle is eager to move on from the situation, but Kail — and the show’s producers — may not feel the same.

Leida Margaretha and Eric Rosenbrook Fight: What Happened?

Marriage is complicated. Throw in a time limit, an international move, cultural differences, and sudden reality stardom, and you have a recipe for drama. Sometimes, you have a recipe for disaster — real world, scary disaster. Leida Margaretha accused Eric Rosenbrook of abuse and the couple called the police. Since then, we have learned a lot more about the alleged incident — both sides have confirmed aspects of the story. 1. This is serious On January 20, 2019, Leida and Eric were visited by police. It was very early Sunday morning, and the married 90 Day Fiance couple had just had a fight. 2. Leida accused Eric of domestic violence In a series of “leaked” messages, Leida claimed that Eric had pulled her hair painfully — and that wasn’t the most upsetting part. 3. Read Leida’s words for yourself As you can see, she says that she had thratened suicide, but that Eric had taken the knife from her — it was after this, Leida writes, that he abused her. 4. She says she doesn’t want to live with him anymore These text messages were “leaked” — we’ll get into that later. 5. Then Eric shared his side Eric acknowledges much of what happened, saying that he was focused on saving her life, and essentially that he got carried away. 6. Abuse is never acceptable Eric may have explained why he went too far and pulled her hair, but that is not an excuse. We hope that both he and Leida know this. View Slideshow

Apollo Nida: Penning Tell-All Book Before Reporting to Prison!

Don’t tell T.I., but Apollo Nida is snitching again … this time on himself in a new tell-all book he’s trying to wrap up before he reports to prison next week. The Real Housewives of Atlanta star, staring at eight years in the big house for fraud staring next week, is reportedly putting the finishing touches on a memoir. Hard at work on his autobiography, Apollo Nida has teamed with multiple ghostwriters to get his story down on paper in the period prior to his incarceration. Nida is said to be focusing on his life, his upbringing, and the events that led him to reality stardom alongside Phaedra Parks and ultimately to prison. He even shot a photo for the cover. No doubt a debonair one. According to TMZ, he has come to face the reality of jail as “the next chapter of his life” … which is fitting as he tries to write about the chapters thus far. Still, all this can’t be an easy transition for the wannabe big shot, whose marriage to Phaedra is on shaky ground at best, and who faces a far from certain release date. Nida must report for prison by September 10. We’ll see it all go down on TV soon enough, and to see how we got to this point, you can watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online to catch up on last season. 11 Holy $hit Moments from The Real Housewives of Atlanta 1. It’s NaNay! Forget NeNe Leakes, people. NaNay has taken over on The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Alexis Cohen, American Idol Castoff, Killed in Car Accident; Police Investigating Possible Homicide

Alexis Cohen, who was ridiculed by Simon Cowell and termed the Green Goblin during auditions for American Idol, was killed on the New Jersey shore Saturday.

According to the The Asbury Park Press, Alexis Cohen, 25, was apparently struck and killed by a car in what authorities are calling an apparent homicide.

Deputy Chief Michael Mohel of the Ocean County Prosecutors Office reports that an autopsy revealed that the Allentown, Pa., passed away after suffering severe chest, abdominal and closed head injuries as a result of the collision.

Authorities are currently conducting an investigation into Alexis Cohen’s death, asking anyone with information on the hit and run to speak up.

Alexis Cohen Picture

Alexis Cohen provided one of American Idol’s most colorful tryouts.

Cohen rose to reality stardom after her 2007 American Idol audition resulted in a showdown with Cowell, who likened her to the Spider-Man character.

Alexis responded with a bird-flipping rant, in which she claimed to “march to the beat of a different drummer” while vowing to “leave with [her] dignity.”

Resilient, she returned to audition in 2008. Again, she was shown the door.
