Donald Trump: Arnold Schwarzenegger Didn’t Quit, He Was FIRED!

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

So at this point, it’s probably safe to say that Donald Trump is the pettiest president of all time, right? Like, it’s hard to imagine any of those other 44 men getting into social media fights with The Terminator. But times have changed, and now we’re living in a time in which the actual president of the United States feels the need to log onto Twitter and express his hurt feelings. It’s strange, it’s uncomfortable, but here we are. Trump’s feud with Arnold Schwarzenegger started back in September when it was announced that Arnold would take over Trump’s position as host of The Apprentice . Arnold’s season premiered in January, and there was a big drop in ratings — 4.9 million viewers compared to 6.8 million viewers that watched Trump’s last premiere. At the time, Trump tweeted “Wow, the ratings are in and Arnold Schwarzenegger got ‘swamped’ (or destroyed) by comparison to the ratings machine, DJT.” Yes, he seriously referred to himself as “the ratings machine.” Feel free to take a break to shake off all that embarrassment. “So much for being a movie star – and that was season 1 compared to season 14,” he added. “No compare him to my season 1. But who cares, he supported Kasich and Hillary.” You’d think that Trump would have been too busy with that presidency gig to worry so much about The Apprentice, but you have to realize that he’s still an executive producer for the show. (Hold on, it only gets more absurd from here on out.) Arnold fired back , telling Trump that he hopes he cares as much about being a good president as he does about ratings. He later criticized Trump for his ridiculous Muslim Ban, and for all the other terrible, terrifying decisions he’s made in these past two months. But finally, things got to be too much for Arnold, and he decided to step down as the host of The Apprentice. In a statement, he said that he loved working with the people on the show, and that he would love to continue working with them, but the show simply has too much “baggage.” “With Trump being involved in the show,” he explained, “people have a bad taste and don’t want to participate as a spectator or as a sponsor or in any other way support the show.” “It’s a very divisive period now, and I think this show got caught up in all that division.” So that’s totally fair — Arnold doesn’t want to get mixed up in any Donald Trump production when Donald Trump is very likely the most hated man in all of America right now. But you know Easy D couldn’t just let that lie. Trump got on Twitter this morning and wrote “Arnold Schwarzenegger isn’t voluntarily leaving the Apprentice, he was fired by his bad (pathetic) ratings, not by me. Sad end to a great show.” So Arnold was fired because the ratings were bad, huh? It wouldn’t have anything to do with the fact that since the last season of the show premiered, people have learned so very, very many terrible things about Trump and may have wanted to distance themselves from a production he’s always been so closely involved with? View Slideshow: Donald Trump: Thousands of People Expressing Regret Over Voting for Him! Arnold’s already hit back, responding with “You should think about hiring a new joke writer and a fact checker.” Yep, this feud isn’t ending any time soon.

Terminally Ill Children’s Author Seeks New Wife for Husband in Heartbreaking Essay

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Hope you’re ready for a good, long cry , because it’s coming your way fast. Amy Krouse Rosenthal, if you’re not familiar with her work, is a bestselling author. She’s written several children’s books, but she’s also written a couple of memoirs. But her latest work could very possibly be her last work, and that’s because Amy has ovarian cancer and isn’t expected to live very much longer. The work in question is an essay  written for the New York Times titled “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” Because this woman has been married for over two decades, and she is such an unbelievable gem that she’s spending some of her last moments looking out for her husband. See what we mean about the crying? “I have been trying to write this for a while,” she begins, “but the morphine and lack of juicy cheeseburgers (what has it been now, five weeks without real food?) have drained my energy and interfered with whatever prose prowess remains.” “Still,” she writes, “I have to stick with it, because I’m facing a deadline, in this case, a pressing one. I need to say this (and say it right) while I have a) your attention, and b) a pulse.” Amy says that she’s married to “the most extraordinary man,” and while they’ve been married for 26 years, “I was planning on at least another 26 together.” She then explains that on the same day their third and youngest child left for college, she and her husband went to the emergency room for what they thought was appendicitis but what turned out to be ovarian cancer. “So many plans instantly went poof,” she writes — no international adventures with her husband or her parents, no writers’ residencies. “This is when we entered what I came to think of as Plan ‘Be,'” she continues, “existing only in the present. As for the future, allow me to introduce you to the gentleman of this article, Jason Brian Rosenthal.” Yep, so let’s kick the heartache up a notch. Amy writes that her husband Jason is “an easy man to fall in love with,” and she knows because she did it in one day — on a blind date when they were 24 years old. Though she’s never been on any dating sites , she takes a stab at creating a dating profile for Jason — she calls him a “sharp dresser” with “a flair for fabulous socks,” she says that he’s “uncannily handy” and “man, can he cook.” She says he’s a wonderful father to their three children, and that “he showed up at our first pregnancy ultrasound with flowers.” She then goes into a story about how she had a contest in which her fans could submit ideas to her for matching tattoos, and whichever submission she picked, she would get that tattoo with that person. In the end, she chose a simple tattoo: the word more. Her reader picked it because she’d once written it was the first word she ever said as a child, but now it has deeper meaning. “I want more time with Jason,” she says. “I want more time with my children. I want more time sipping martinis at the Green Mill Jazz Club on Thursday nights.” “But that is not going to happen. I probably have only a few days left being a person on this planet. So why am I doing this?” She explains “I am wrapping this up on Valentine’s Day, and the most genuine, none-vase-oriented gift I can hope for is that the right person reads this, finds Jason, and another love story begins.” “I’ll leave this intentional space below as a way of giving you two the fresh start you deserve.” After that blank space, she closed her essay by writing “With all my love, Amy.” What a woman. What a wife. What an incredibly thoughtful, selfless human being. And now for those tears …

Arnold Schwarzenegger Won’t Return to Celebrity Apprentice Due to You-Know-Who

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Forgive the obvious opener, but… … Arnold Schwarzenegger will NOT be back. The actor-turned-Govenor-turned-reality-TV-host said hasta la vista, baby to Celebrity Apprentice on Friday, announcing that he will not return to the NBC series for a second season. The star, of course, took over for Donald Trump as host for the latest installment of this franchise. And that was basically the entire problem Schwarzenegger explained via statement. “I loved every second of working with NBC and Mark Burnett,” the 69-year old said, adding: “Everyone – from the celebrities to the crew to the marketing department – was a straight 10, and I would absolutely work with all of them again on a show that doesn’t have this baggage.” Ah, yes. This baggage . Schwarzenegger is referring to the fact that Donald Trump stayed on as Executive Producer of Celebrity Apprentice, despite being elected President of the United States in November. This cast a controversial shadow over the program before it even premiered in January. “With Trump being involved in the show, people have a bad taste and don’t want to participate as a spectator or as a sponsor or in any other way support the show,” Arnold continued. “It’s a very divisive period now, and I think this show got caught up in all that division.” It didn’t exactly help that Trump actively trash-talked his predecessor over the show’s dwindling ratings. “Wow, the ratings are in and Arnold Schwarzenegger got ‘swamped’ (or destroyed) by comparison to the ratings machine, DJT,” Trump Tweeted on Friday, January 6 . He added at the time: “So much for being a movie star-and that was season 1 compared to season 14. Now compare him to my season 1. But who cares, he supported [John] Kasich & Hillary [Clinton].” Schwarzenegger responded by slamming Trump as a “skunk,” and later tweeted to the commander in chief himself: “I wish you the best of luck and I hope you’ll work for ALL of the American people as aggressively as you worked for your ratings.” Celebrity Apprentice did struggle in the ratings this season, but it also decreased over the course of Trump’s run. NBC has yet to pick up the show for another run, following Matt Iseman emerging victorious in the season finale that aired last month. In another Tweet, Schwarzenegger addressed Trump as follows: “Please study this quote from [Abraham] Lincoln’s inaugural, @realDonald Trump. It inspired me every day I was Governor, and I hope it inspires you.” Schwarzenegger then went ahead and read the quote in a video. This is what it said: We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature. View Slideshow: 27 Reality Stars Who Should Never Be On TV Again Did you choose a side in this Trump vs. Schwarzenegger feud? Or will you be happy when both just go away?

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott Welcome FIFTH Child!

Posted on March 3, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Tori Spelling can stop showing off her bra and baby bump now . Because she has an actual baby to show off instead! Indeed, the actress and husband Dean McDermott have confirmed to the world that they are parents for the FIFTH time, with Spelling have just given birth to a baby boy. And his name is… … Beau Dean McDermott! Born at 1:48 p.m. on Thursday, the child weighed in at 5 lbs., 12 oz. and measured 18.5 inches long. “We are over the moon in love with baby Beau,” Spelling told People soon after becoming a mother once again. She added: “He is a true blessing and his brothers and sisters were overjoyed to meet him! We are all truly grateful for our big beautiful and healthy family.” Spelling and McDermott’s latest addition joins a quarter of siblings. They are: Finn, 4 Hattie, 5 Stella, 8 Liam, 9 Moreover, McDermott has an 18-year-old son named Jack from his previous marriage. Along with the above statement, Spelling shared the following previous photo on Twitter, writing as a caption: “We are so excited to announce the birth of the newest member of the McDermott family! Please join us in welcoming Beau Dean McDermott.” Despite already having four kids… despite having reportedly battled financial problems over the years… and despite how very easy it is to NOT get pregnant, Spelling said in October that she and McDermott were not planning to expand their family. “It was a total surprise,” Spelling told People at the time. “But we always wanted a big family. I’m really excited.” McDermott just got sued for unpaid child support , making us wonder how he and Spelling can afford to keep pumping out kids. But the ex-Beverly Hills 90210 star didn’t seem too bothered by the potential monetary hold-ups when talking about her pregnancy last fall. “Dean was saying, ‘We just got Finn out of diapers; I thought we were in the clear!’ ” Spelling laughed of her husband’s reaction to the state of her womb, adding: “For the first time this year, they’re all in school. So it’s like, wow. We’re basically starting over.” Spelling has spent the last several weeks documenting her growing belly on Instagram. She’s clearly been excited about the prospected of five-time motherhood… and now it’s actually arrived! “This baby happened at the best time,” she told People a few months ago. “Nothing is ever perfect, but I’m so madly in love with my husband and with our kids. The idea of adding to that is such a blessing.” View Slideshow: Celebrity Babies: Who Became Parents in 2017?

Christina Grimmie: Family Thanks Fans for Support in Heartbreaking Statement

Posted on March 2, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Will there ever be a time when simply hearing Christina Grimmie’s name doesn’t bring a tear to your eye and an ache to your heart. Honestly, probably not. Christina was just 22 years old, all set to be a huge pop star, when she was murdered after a concert in Orlando . A man named Kevin Loibl — who, by several accounts, was very unhealthily obsessed with Christina — approached her while she was signing autographs and shot her. Her brother Marcus was able to wrestle Loibl to the ground, but the shooter quickly turned his gun on himself. To call it a nightmare would be a huge understatement, obviously, but the nightmare continues on to this day: the Grimmie family is in the middle of a legal battle against the entertainment company that owns the venue where Christina died. The issue, the Grimmies believe, was that the venue didn’t have appropriate security in place to protect the performers, or anyone, really. And that’s a fair point, considering Loibl was able to waltz in with two handguns. It must be terrible for her family to have to deal with a legal battle along with their unimaginable grief, but one thing is for sure: Christina’s fans are, to this day, a source of comfort for them. And they said as much in a touching message shared to Christina’s Twitter account. See, Christina won a Teen Choice Award last July — she was named Choice Web Star in the Music category. Her fans took issue with the show at the time, since Christina’s award wasn’t announced during the broadcast of the awards show. In fact, her name wasn’t mentioned even once . It seemed like a pretty big oversight, considering that the Teen Choice Awards aired just a month after her murder. When you consider that they also included an entire tribute dedicated to victims of gun violence and their surviving family members, still with no mention of Christina … yeah, her fans were upset. But it seems like after all these months, the Teen Choice Awards pulled it together long enough to get Christina’s award to her family. About time, right? Her parents shared the picture of the award: Along with the photo, they thanked “#TeanGrimmie” for helping them finally get the award. “Your commitment to Christina’s legacy and making your voice heard online is a blessing to us,” they wrote. “We also acknowledge those who supported behind the scenes to make this a reality.” “Thank you with love!” And Christina’s fans were quick to share their ongoing support. “She deserved this more than anyone else,” one person commented, and another said “We won’t let her be forgotten.” View Slideshow: Christina Grimmie Shooting Death: Stars Pay Tribute to The Voice Alum One fan wrote “I’m so happy. Christina deserved that award and I’m sure she is smiling in heaven. God bless all.” We’re not crying. You’re crying.

Josh Murray & Amanda Stanton: We’re Working Things Out!

Posted on March 2, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Even if you’ve never been there, you probably have a friend who has: Sometimes a relationship starts too fast in the beginning, and falls apart just as quickly, but while everyone on the outside can see that it just wasn’t meant to be, neither of the parties involved can let it go. That’s the situation that Josh Murray and Amanda Stanton find themselves in, and sadly, it seems they’re not yet willing to give on their lifeless corpse of a relationship. The first hint that Murray and Stanton are back together came last month, when the couple was spotted out and about together in LA. Shortly thereafter, Murray seemed to confirm the reconciliation with a series of cryptic tweets about the joys of staying in an unhealthy relationship. “Crazies stick with crazies #breakovermorepackingtodo,” Murray tweeted at one point. In case you missed it, Murray and Stanton got engaged after hitting it off on The Bachelor in Paradise, ABC’s social experiment designed to determine if couples are more likely to get married if they meet in a hot climate while drunk on Mai Tais. To the surprise of literally no one (probably including the couple themselves) Josh and Amanda broke up shortly thereafter. Now, however, Josh says he and Amanda are serious about patching things up” “I wouldn’t say we’re back together, but we’re working on things right now,” he said on The Domenik Nati Show. “There’s a lot of things that happened, there were a lot of struggles… For me, I know when I’m in a relationship I want to be with somebody who’s my best friend, who I can trust, who I can be with all the time. We have to get to that point for anything to work out.” He added: “After the show, it was very difficult, just how everything was shown and portrayed. “We had a great time, we fell in love, we thought everything was great, and then it was tough during the season.” “So we kind of had to fight an uphill battle for a little while, and it wasn’t an easy thing to do. But right now, we saw each other about a week ago back in Los Angeles, and there’s a lot of things we need to talk about.” But don’t thinking that Josh is open to the idea of reconciling with any of his other exes. Asked if he would consider giving his relationship with Andi Dorfman another chance, Stanton was firm in his response: “Absolutely not,” there’s no chance,” he replied. “I really could care less about even talking to her again. He added: “When I ended that relationship a while ago, that was the last time I spoke with her and I don’t intend to do that again.” It’s good that Josh knows his limits. You should really try to stick on one ill-advised reconciliation at a time. Best of luck, you crazy kids!

The Oscars Happened and Here are some Sluts of the Day

Posted on February 27, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Obviously, every award show roles around and I say that shit’s for old people who still have TV… That’s not to say I don’t like movies, I just don’t like the cunts in movies after the movies, with all their money fame and egos… I am pretty glad Lala Land didn’t win, but Oscar So White was top priority as they scramble to stay relevant…but like social media and shit, the only way to do that is with a meme, hashtag, publicity stunt……OR……controversy… It’s an archaic, incestuous, masturbatory experience in “let’s celebrate our goddamn selves with trophies that market our movies and elevate us as a whole”…and whatever…it happened…and bitches were there in dresses….despite all being hookers who did some shit to be famous…. Maybe I’m just bitter I wasn’t invited, I am not part of the “it” crowd, I am not nominated or giving speeches to rooms full of my peers saying “i’m the best, I’m the best, I’m the best”….But I figure staring at the overrated pussy in pics is a better way to go about these things…. Hailee Steinfeld was there in a sheer, but not quite sheer enough dress….looking skinnier than ever – cuz skinny is better… Emma Roberts was there in a skimpy top for her skimpy tits…all ginger and average looking….all skinny and not fat….which is a good thing. Emma Stone, I didn’t even look to see if she won, but she probably did, even though she’s terrible, but it is her time….to shine….the belle of the ball..trying to be classically beautiful with the Botox face….and still rocking that weird mouth….I don’t hate her for existing, I just think she’s an overrated average at best chick who has tricked you all…and I’m right… Here she is at some Oscar party in some pantsuit with her stupid looking mouth… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE Salma Hayek was There with a Botox Mangled Face and Some Very Fertile…like the virgin soil on her Mexican Citrus and Avacado farm…. Chrissy Teigen Was there – Medicated and in a sheer top – cuz she’s a hooker who seduced the right wallet and now gets invited to Oscars as the escort…. Jessica Biel was there – dressed like a Trophy – Cuz She’s the Trophy Wife – Getting Older and Older….Rotting even…. Here butt shots… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE Kirsten Dunst Was there – Cuz She Didn’t Die of a Drug Overdose Yet….Her Snaggle Tooth was her date, but she kept her mouth shut so we don’t get to see the source of her super powers… Alicia Vikander was there…because she’s the Naked AI you nerds want to fuck….oh and sshe’s won an Oscar before… OH SHIT…Scar Jo….so Iconic with her lesbian hair… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE Big Girl Big Star Charlize Theron….is old…but the guy who she fucked for her first part will always remember her big break…she probably blocked it out…it’s been so long…. Brie Larson – Big WInner Last Year was there….and she’s back… Brie Larson in the best Hair and Make-Up her celebrity money can by – is so fucking basic looking, so average, like how is she not a waitress at Denys…what is this shit… Felicity Jones Was There – I don’t know who the fuck that is – but I’d Let her Suck My Dick for the Part…. TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE Sofia Carson – I Don’t know who the fuck that is – but I’d Let her Suck My Dick for a Role…. Dakota – Thank God her Mom is Melanie Griffith – Johnson – was there, obviously…her mom got her tickets….. White Girl Pretending to be Black – Halle Berry – Oscar Winner – Was There with her Ethnic Hair…because Oscars So White needs more color.. Nicole Kidman is Still a Fucking Robot… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE Milana Vayntrub is some monster but she’s amazing…I don’t know what Oscar Party it was…but it was the right one… TO SEE THE REST OF THE OSCAR PICS CLICK HERE Amy Adams and her Tits Were there…. Ryan Gosling’s sister, who is likely old and chubby, but has fat girl tits, and shows her fat girl tits, for attention was there…and it was magical…she’s gone viral – she’s now a MEME…..

Kim Kardashian: Not Invited to ANY Oscar Parties?!

Posted on February 27, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West may be back together, but that doesn’t mean they’re back on top. In years past, Kimye was a constant presence at big awards season events, but this time around, the couple wasn’t spotted working a single red carpet or after-party. And according to a new report from Radar Online, it’s not for lack of trying: “Kim was hoping to go to the Vanity Fair party, or really any party,” a source close to the Kardashians  tells the site. “But she didn’t receive an invitation.” Instead of hobnobbing with the rich and famous, Kim and Kanye reportedly spent the evening on the couch, likely rocking matching pairs of $3,000 Yeezy sweatpants: “They watched the show at home,” the insider says. “Kim is often reminded that she is not a real star when she goes to any of these things, but she and Kanye really wanted to have a fun night out.” Yes, the Kim Kardashian sex tape may have been a hit online, but surprisingly, it hasn’t earned Kim much praise from critics. This isn’t the first year that the Wests have sat out the awards season party circuit, but the source says they were hoping to send a message by attending some of 2017’s biggest events. Kanye was hospitalized following an emotional breakdown back in November, and there have been murmurs about the state of his mental health ever since. On top of that, Kim and Kanye divorce rumors have been flooding social media non-stop. Popping up at a few red carpet soirees would have been an easy way for the couple to reassure fans and garner a few good headlines for a change. Interestingly, Kim’s not the only member of her family to feel put-off by Hollywood’s biggest night. Production sources say Kris Jenner threw a tantrum while covering the red carpet for E! News. The infamous momager was reportedly pissed that she wasn’t informed about the blue ribbons celebs were wearing to show their support for the ACLU. Jenner felt that she was made to look like a fool for asking about the significance of the ribbon on air. Sounds like the Trumps might not be the only family who chooses not to tune in to next year’s ceremony. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian: 19 Reasons Why She Isn’t That Terrible

Steve Harvey Responds to Best Picture Flub: I’ve Been There, Folks!

Posted on February 27, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Steve Harvey suddenly has something significant in common with Warren Beatty. But it has nothing to do with the massive number of women with whom Beatty has had sex. Instead, it’s the embarrassment of making an epically famous mistake on a national awards show stage. In December of 2015, Harvey concluded the Miss Universe Pageant by announcing Miss Colombia as the winner. The only problem at the time? Miss Colombia was not actually the winner. That honor actually belonged to Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach of the Philippines, a gross error that Harvey was forced to come out and admit minutes after misinforming the audience initially. It was quite the snafu, although it didn’t do much harm to Harvey’s career. Considering he was invited back to host the same beauty pageant a year later. Steve Harvey Announces WRONG Miss Universe Winner: You Gotta Watch This! On Sunday night, meanwhile, Warren Beatty was at the center of the greatest gaffe in Academy Awards history. Due to an envelope mix-up that really was not his fault, the legendary actor helped tell the world that La La Land had won Best Picture for 2017. Except it hadn’t. Moonlight had won Best Picture for 2017. Watch this VERY awkward snafu take place in the following video: Oscars 2017 Best Picture: There’s Been a Mistake! Soon after the proper victor was crowned, host Jimmy Kimmel tried to lighten the tense mood, quipping on stage: “Guys, this is very unfortunate what happened. Personally, I blame Steve Harvey for this.” It was a pretty good line, but it also gave Harvey a chance to milk the situation for as much attention as he possibly could. “Good morning everybody! Went to sleep early last night. So…what I miss? #Oscars,” the comedian Tweeted this morning, prior to using the mistake as a PR opportunity. “Tune in to @SteveHarveyFM at 8 AM ET today for my response to last night’s #Oscars . YOU KNOW I have something to say,” he added. On his radio show, Harvey proceeded to wax at length about the Oscars flub. “I know all about this. I know more than anyone else in the world about this,” said the 60-year-old. “I am the creator of these moments. The epicurean of this.” Harvey went on reference a number reactions made on social media to the televised mistake. “Because Warren made a mistake, does he have to die?” Harvey joked. “Should he lose his life? Y’all wanna kill him? Well he needs security because of this.” Prior to the cast and crew from Moonlight accepting the Best Picture prize, Beatty jumped back on the microphone and explained what happened, saying he was confused the second he opened the envelope because it read “Emma Stone, La La Land.” Since this snafu took place, PricewaterhouseCoopers, the auditing firm that tallies the Oscars votes, issued an apology and took responsibility. View Slideshow: Academy Awards Flub Inspires Internet, Leads to Other Best Picture Possibilities “Me and Warren handled it great. It’s me and Warren’s thing,” added Harvey. “We handled it great. At least the producers of the Oscars walked out with him… and they corrected the mistake on the night.” Concluded Harvey on his show: “Warren I know your pain!” “I can help Warren get through this. I’m [going to] show him how to handle it with dignity and grace. Thank God for producers who stand with their talent. Unlike waiting the next day to handle it with the press, as it was suggested in my ear… “I can help Warren get through this. Call me Warren, baby.”
