The televised train wreck known as LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian’s reality show will need some heavy promotion if it’s gonna survive season one, so the homewrecking duo has been making the media rounds lately and saying things that reveal them to be even more delusional than we thought. Take, for example, the recent interview in which Eddie opened up about the everlasting feud between LeAnn and his first wife, Brandi Glanville: “My wife doesn’t engage,” says Eddie. “I mean if you want to look back, really dig down and be a journalist, look at the timelines and you will see there’s a big discrepancy. There is really no going back and forth.” “I mean, you eventually have to say something, enough is enough, but the truth is, she always takes the high road.” Right. Apparently Eddie’s forgotten about some of the more memorable exchanges between his first two wives: For starters, there was the time LeAnn joked about wrecking Brandi’s marriage on Twitter. Oh, and of course, there’s the many times LeAnn and Eddie slammed Brandi on their reality show (and ywe’ve only seen one episode). The list goes on and on, and while Brandi certainly isn’t blameless, if LeAnn’s behavior is what Eddie considers “the high road,” we’d hate to see his idea of shameless public bullying. Fortunately for Brandi, these days she doesn’t have to do any retaliating. The reviews for the premiere of LeAnn and Eddie were so bad that the critics are doing plenty of trash talking for her.

Selena Gomez has made her opinion known on the raging conflict in the Middle East. Writing on Instagram that “It’s About Humanity,” Selena posted the controversial message last night for folks to “Pray for Gaza” in regard to the ongoing battle being waged between Israel and Palestine in that region. Gomez is the latest star to weigh in on this difficult topic, with Rihanna (accidentally, she claims) Tweeting ” Free Palestine ” earlier in the week, only for the message to be quickly deleted. But Selena isn’t backing off. “Please pray for those families and babies today. Please always remember what’s important in life,” she explained. Many are now wondering whether Gomez actually supports Hamas – which has launched numerous missiles in an attempt to destroy Israel – or if she’s just expressing prayers for peace in general. It certainly sounds like the latter, doesn’t it? Gomez concluded her message with the hashtag “#wearethenextgeneration.” At least she’s moved on from Justin Bieber , right? At least for the time being. Here’s a look at other stars who have gone political online… and then regretted going so: Celebrities Who Have Deleted Political Messages 1. Rihanna Rihanna claims she never meant to Tweet #FreePalestine. The message was taken down immediately after going up.

Is Kate Middleton pregnant again for real? That’s the rumor going around, and British bookmakers are seeing heightened activity as a result! Just as Prince George’s birthday is approaching, and with old friend Jessica Hay “confirming” her second pregnancy, the rumor mill is working overtime. Eager royal family fans are wondering when a little sister or brother may join the adorable royal baby in the palace nursery. Could it be within a year? A British bookmaker is encouraging that speculation … or was, until a firm called Coral halted all bets on the pregnancy of the Duke and Duchess Monday. A series of bets were placed online Monday night on whether Kate Middleton is indeed expecting a second child right now, which makes you wonder. As in, wonder what those people know … and wonder who bets on celebrity gossip ?! “When bets come in at once late in the evening, it sets alarm bells off,” Coral’s Nicola McGeady said, noting that up until yesterday, “It’s been quiet.” “Then all of a sudden, a week before Prince George’s birthday , this happened. The bets sealed our opinion that someone knows something we don’t.” Coral was offering odds of 10-1 on Kate announcing a second pregnancy in early July, but the odds were cut to even money amid a swarm of action. At that point, the firm pulled the plug entirely. Whatever the cause of the flurry of activity, the 32-year-old Kate is believed to ignoring the speculation as tiresome, as she has other things on her mind. Like enjoying the time with her current little one, or heading off for her first solo tour to Malta in September, for example … and generally being gorgeous. 19 Royally Hot Kate Middleton Bikini Photos 1.

I know it’s been way too long since we’ve done one of our official Maria Menounos booty updates, especially now that we don’t get to see her on a daily basis on Extra anymore. But not to worry, because judging from these pictures of her at NBC’s 2014 Summer TCA Tour, our favorite Greek booty is looking just as good as ever. I’m not sure what it’s up to these days, but if Maria’s looking for a gig, I could definitely use a new correspondent to update us on her breaking booty news on a daily basis, and I figure nobody knows that story better than she does. So how about it, Maria? Call me. » view all 27 photos Photos: WENN.com Continue reading →
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m really digging Audrina Patridge ‘s new job as a professional lingerie model . At least it’s much better than her last gig as an amateur red carpet model. This time, she showed up in leggings and lingerie for Esquire ‘s “Me in My Place” series again, and if she’s looking to keep the good times rolling, I’d love to hire Audrina to shoot something similar for my new “Her in My Place” series. I’ll just have to move some pizza boxes off my bed, but my phone takes great pictures. » view all 31 photos Continue reading →
Feel free to pretend like you didn’t already know this if your boss or girlfriend is around, but it was the 2014 Exxxotica Expo in Chicago over the weekend. And I figured since I do posts on amateur porn stars like Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton all the time, I might as well do one on the pros too. Now I know I’ve been down on American porn stars and said they’re all ugly in the past, but maybe things are finally starting to turn around, since there’s actually a few cuties in here. That or maybe my standards are just lower. Either way, go ahead and enjoy, because this is about as SFW as these chicks get. » view all 32 photos Photos: WENN.com

According to various reports, Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres may be headed for divorce . And in what could be even worse news for the talk show icon, de Rossi may have been in the habit of covertly videotaping the couple’s violent fights with the goal of exploiting Ellen should they ever break up. “Portia secretly taped some of their fights. She was drunk,” a source tells In Touch. “Then she threatened to expose Ellen as controlling and manipulating.” The insider claims DeGeneres flew into a rage when she discovered de Rossi’s scheme and proceeded to smash Portia’s phone to ensure the footage wouldn’t get out. Sources say Ellen and Portia are currently struggling to save their marriage and de Rossi recently completed a stint in an alcoholism treatment facility.
