Felicity Huffman Sentenced to 14 Days In Prison For Role In College Admissions Scandal

When news of the college admissions bribery scandal first went public in March, two actresses quickly emerged as the most prominent figures ensnared in the FBI’s “Varsity Blues” sting operation. Now, one of them has been sentenced to prison for attempting to buy her daughter’s way into the school of her choice. Five months after Felicity Huffman pled guilty  to paying out $15,000 in bribes to rig the SATs in her child’s favor, the actress — best known for her role in the ABC drama Desperate Housewives — has been sentenced to 14 days behind bars. Huffman spoke in her own defense at her sentence hearing this afternoon, echoing her attorney’s claims that she did not realize anyone would be harmed by her actions. “I am deeply sorry to the students, parents, colleges and universities impacted by my actions.” she told the judge. “I have inflicted more damage (on her daughter) than I could’ve ever imagined,” Huffman continued. “I was frightened, I was stupid and I was so wrong. I am deeply ashamed of what I have done.” In addition to her jail time, the 56-year-old received a $30,000 fine, 250 hours of community, and one year of supervised release. Huffman was joined in court by her husband, actor William H. Macy. The couple bee-lined to waiting SUVs after leaving the courtroom and did not speak with members of the press. Huffman will start her prison sentence on a yet-to-be-determined date in the near future. While Huffman got off with a slap on the wrist (Prosecutors originally wanted her to serve four months in prison, but reduced their recommendation to one month following a favorable parole report.), her status as a convicted felon will follow her for the rest of her life. This means that she will never be able to own a firearm (probably not a matter of great concern to the actress), and will not be allowed to vote until she’s completed her probation. In the wake of the news about Huffman’s sentencing, many thoughts turned to her alleged co-conspirator Lori Loughlin. The Full House actress is the other famous face associated with the scandal, and she’s in a much tougher position than Huffman. Loughlin turned down the plea deal that Huffman accepted — this, despite facing far more severe charges. (While Huffman pled guilty to shelling out $15,000 in bribes, Loughlin stands accused of doling out $500,000 to help secure admission to USC for both of her daughters.) Strangely, Huffman’s sentence might translate to good news for Loughlin, as it’s considered a major defeat for prosecutors, who might now be inclined to offer the actress a second plea deal. Hopefully, this time, she’ll be smart enough to take it. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available.

Audrey Roloff Addresses Single Ladies: Never Netflix and Chill!

About a year ago, Audrey Roloff stirred up a bit of controversy by doling out advice to fellow married folks. First, she compared marriage to war , saying husbands and wives enter a “battlefield” on a regular basis. In a semi-rambling blog post, the Little People, Big World star asked the following: “What are you doing to protect your marriage against the dangers of, porn, workaholism, worry, pride, stress, fear, loss, addiction, comparison, social media, emotional cheating, that girl at the gym, in-laws, hormones, or idolizing your kids?” Roloff got a lot of pushback for her comments, which she followed up suggesting that married couples she often recite their vows to each other. In bed. During sex. “I’ll spare you the details, but it was the most intimate thing we have ever done in our marriage,” Roloff wrote at the time . “And probably the most intimate thing I have ever done in my life.” Roloff also received some Internet side-eye for this recommendation. Therefore, perhaps sick of getting flak for what she has to say to other wives and their husband, Audrey has shifted her focus. In her latest Instagram post, the reality star has directed her attention to single ladies around the world. This is her Beyonce moment, people! “To all the single girls out there… wait for the kind of man who wants to sit and talk with you by a campfire more than he wants to sit by you watching Netflix on a couch,” Roloff writes, expanding on this theme as follows: “Wait for a man who comes to your door when he picks you up instead of just texting, ‘I’m here.’ “Wait for a man who is more dedicated to pursuing Jesus than he is to pursuing his career ambitions. “Wait for a man who wants to get to know your friends and family instead of always insisting on hanging out alone. “Wait for a man who you’d want to be the father of your children instead of a man who’s still acting like a child.” Audrey has clearly found a man that fits these qualifications. She has been gushing over Jeremy Roloff for many weeks and months now, especially in light of the couple expecting its first child this September. “I know it may seem harsh, but I say these things to encourage you and give you hope,” Roloff said, seemingly aware that she may be inviting more criticism with these words of advice. She concludes with a message of hope: “That kind of man is out there. Don’t believe the big fat lie that tells you, “Oh I’ll never find someone like that.” Jeremy is not an exception. “Men like this DO exist. Pray for him and wait for him.” Audrey added the hashtag “#beating50percent” to her post, which is a reference to the fact that one-half of all marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. She and Jeremy are beating those odds at the moment. And soon they’ll be changing diapers! View Slideshow: Audrey Roloff Baby Bump Pics: Look at It Grow! The TLC stars started dating in 2011, got married in 2014 and will become parents this fall. As you can see above, Audrey has been keeping social media followers well apprised of her baby bump status on Instagram, while the cable network is expected to air new episodes of Little People, Big World in a few months. It’s very safe to assume that Audrey’s pregnancy and delivery will be a central storyline when the popular series returns.

Farrah Abraham: Plastic Surgeon Says NO To Butt Implants!

She said she'd slow down on cosmetic procedures, but Farrah Abraham isn't staying true to her word. The Teen Mom OG star recently went on The Doctors to try and get free plastic surgery inquire about butt implants . In particular, Abraham wanted to know about “Brazilian butt lift,” a procedure which takes fat from another part of the patient's body and injects it into their rear. “What can we do to get our butt to where we want it to be?” Abraham asked Dr. Andrew Ordon in his office. “It’s all about proportions,” Dr. Ordon told his patient. “And we know that you’re a curvy woman. Let me take a look and I’ll give you an honest opinion and we’ll talk about what our options are.” Dr. Ordon “examined” Abraham, and concluded that she doesn't need surgery. All that's required to get a well-proportioned, rounded-out butt are target exercises, he said. “You’ve always had a nice backside,” he told her. And I know that you do exercise to keep it in shape and my recommendation is you keep on doing what you’re doing and specifically come up with some exercises to target the upper part of the gluteal muscles. In fact, there isn't enough fat on Abraham's body to inject into her butt. Like that's going to stop her from getting butt implants. It's safe to assume that over 60% of Abraham's body is enhanced. Back in August, Abraham chatted about Abraham on the Allegedly podcast and admitted that she went overboard with plastic surgery .   “I took a chin implant out, I've dialed down on the injections because I thought it was too much,” Abraham said. “It was a lot of stuff, like whoa, plastic surgery turns out to be a lot more than you bargained for. “But I'm not addicted to anything.” No, of course you aren't! “The only things that I had to fix were breasts, because I was getting serious scarring,” she continued. “I felt like I was having a heart attack multiple nights in a row, so I had to change up my regimen.” The poor thing's face looks like it might melt if you get too close with a flame, and now she's jonesin' for a butt lift? Somebody give Abraham a hug.  I would, but I don't want to break her boobs.

President Obama Aghast at Notion of Peas in Guacamole

Gay marriage? Health care subsidies? The 2016 Presidential Election? Please.  President Barack Obama has a far more important subject to debate: the mere suggestion that one ought to put peas in one’s guacamole. The New York Times published an article on Wednesday, July 1 that dared to make this recommendation, as the venerable newspaper Tweeted along with the photo posted above: Add green peas to your guacamole. Trust us. The accompanying piece argued that including peas with this chip-themed delicacy adds an “intense sweetness and a chunky texture to the dip.” But a certain Commander-in-Chief strongly disagrees. “Respect the nyt, but not buying peas in guac,” Obama tweeted. “Onions, garlic, hot peppers. Classic.” As you might expect, the President’s own list of essentials sparked their own bit of online outrage, but let’s save his guacamole recipe for another time. Now, we simply want to know your take on this escalating situation: peas in guacamole? Yay or nay?!?

Miley Cyrus Sings About Dead Fish, Cries

Miley Cyrus has released a new song as part of her Backyard Sessions special concert series, the proceeds from which all benefit The Happy Hippie Foundation . In this instance, Cyrus is rocking a onesie and singing about her late blowfish Pablow, actually breaking down in tears toward the end of the track. “Some of you may remember a few months ago my dear blow fish Pablow past away,” Cyrus wrote in an Instagram post. “I wrote this song for him. He made me so happy and I miss him everyday.” Miley has sadly lost many pets over the years, using multiple tour stops a couple years ago to pay tribute to her dog, Floyd. In this song, Miley expresses regret for having confined Pablow in a tank instead of letting him live free in the ocean. She also sings about a recent outing to a sushi restaurant, belting out such lyrics as: “I got soup and I ordered rice, but watching my friends eat my friends ruined my appetite.” This performance is a far cry from Miley asking people to lick her pussy and her crack , huh? Check it out now.

Nick Gordon to Bobby Brown: Let Me See Bobbi Kristina!

It has been three months since Bobbi Kristina Brown’s hospitalization, and her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, has not visited her. Nick has been the center of a lot of negative attention surrounding the mysterious happenings that led Bobbi Kristina to be hospitalized and diagnosed with irreversible brain damage. So much, in fact, that Bobbi Kristina’s family has refused to allow Nick to see Bobbi Kristina, citing Nick may have had a role in Bobbi Kristina’s drug use . That might be changing though. Nick has offered to meet with Bobby Brown to discuss finally visiting Bobbi Kristina.  If things go his way, he will finally be able to see Bobbi Kristina. According to US Weekly, “Despite his strong desire to see Bobbi Kristina, Nick has respected the families’ wishes for over three months and has refrained from visiting or from pursuing access to her through the courts.”  “He has asked through counsel many times privately and now asks both the Browns and the Houstons, please let him see her.”  Nick had requested to see Bobbi Kristina numerous times before, but the Browns have responded with the recommendation from legal counsel. “Mr. Gordon was offered an opportunity to potentially visit Bobbi Kristina but…declined to meet the terms of any possible visit,” the statement said.  And, of course, they couldn’t end the statement without adding more drama to an already fragile situation: ”Obviously Mr. Gordon is not as desperate to visit Bobbi Kristina as he wants the world to believe.” View Slideshow: Nick Gordon on Dr. Phil: The Scariest Moments Nick’s attorneys “advised him not to meet” the family’s conditions. But Nick is still desperate to see Bobbi Kristina. Attorney Randall Kessler said, “Nick has repeatedly offered to meet with Mr. Brown privately to discuss his request in person, rather than through lawyers.” “Those offers have also been rejected.” Gordon recently went to rehab after a supposedly “volatile” interview with Dr. Phil in March. Nick’s mom told Dr. Phil, “He has said to me many times that he is going to kill himself.” She added, ”Two weeks ago, he tried…He was able to throw up pills.” Since the interview, Gordon is out of rehab .  But sadly, Bobbi Kristina remains in a coma. Bobby Brown is optimistic about his daughter’s prognosis.  After she was awoken from a medically induced coma, Bobby Brown said Bobbi Kristina was awake and was looking at him. “Bobbi Kristina’s condition has changed since moving from Emory University Hospital and there has been improvement,” his lawyer said on April 20. “Doctors have indicated that she will have a long life. However, Bobbi Kristina is presently embarking on a rehabilitation process and the quality of her life will not be known for years to come.” Her grandmother told the world a different story though. After Bobby Brown said his daughter will recover, Cissy Houston said  Bobbi Kristina is unresponsive and has irreversible brain damage .

Rupert Murdoch gun control

Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of News Corp. and owner of Fox News, said that the tragic events in Newtown, Connecticut this week made it clear that it is time to ban automatic weapons in the United States. The News Corp chairman used the social media platform Twitter to express frustration at the easy availability of automatic and semi-automatic guns in his adopted country. “Terrible news today,” he tweeted. “When will politicians find courage to ban automatic weapons?
