Here we go again. As you may have heard, Ryan Edwards left rehab last month after completing 90 days of in-patient treatment. Ryan had checked into a treatment center on one prior occasion, and he relapsed within days of returning home. There was reason to believe this time would be different — but now, it looks as though Ryan is not taking his recovery as seriously as he needs to. Take a look: 1. Dark Times It’s been less than two weeks Ryan left rehab after undergoing 90 days of treatment for an addiction to heroin. 2. Off the Wagon Now, it looks as though Ryan is no longer sober. 3. Back At It A fan posted this photo of Ryan and Mackenzie at a restaurant in North Carolina. 4. The Accusation The person who took the photo says Ryan was definitely drinking alcohol during dinner. 5. What’s the Problem? Ryan was not being treated for an alcohol addiction, but rehab counselors generally advise addicts to steer clear of all intoxicating substances. 6. A Repeating Pattern The last time Ryan left treatment, he was spotted drinking alcohol shortly thereafter. View Slideshow
Ready for your first look at Ben Foster as Lance Armstrong ? The first trailer for The Program has hit the Internet, as this biopic tells the story of the “lie that shocked the world.” It features Foster as Armstrong, the disgraced seven-time Tour de France champion and famous cancer survivor who denied (vehemently) for years that he used performance-enhancing drugs. Until finally coming clean in 2013 via an interview with Oprah. Chris O’Dowd takes on the role of journalist David Walsh, a skeptic about Armstrong from the very beginning who bellows at one point in the trailer: “He meets the President, he gets more sponsors, more money, more fame… The man is cheat!” The Program also stars Lee Pace, Jesse Plemons, Guillaume Canet and Dustin Hoffman. Check out the trailer now.
The picture of a police officer in Kansas acting as an especially good Samaritan has gone viral. Featured below, the image was snapped in a mall in Overland Park last month. It depicts Andy Black, a 27-year veteran of the force, feeding a baby whose mother just suffered a seizure. Black was working his off-duty job when he got a call about a women who fell. He rushed to the scene and saw the lady was “disoriented and shaking” while recovering from a seizure… yet still trying to pick up her daughter. So Black, who has four kids and 14 grandchildren, asked if he could be of assistance. “She let me have the baby with her bottle and the baby was crying and I gave her the bottle,” he said. “And somebody took a picture.” A local artist named Jilli Nel was standing nearby and took the photo. “The two of them looked as if they were in their own world as she stared into his eyes and he just spoke to her while feeding,” she told ABC News . “As a mother I felt the pull on my heart seeing such a beautiful moment and I asked him if I may take his photo.” Black adds he and other first responders helped escort the woman to an ambulance; by that time, the baby’s grateful father had arrived to take the child. “I think this touches the hearts of people,” Black said, trying to comprehend why the photo has grown so popular. “It has gotten so big and I’m like, really, this is not a big deal.” Perhaps that helps explain exactly why it’s so popular: Black simply did what came naturally, and that was to help his fellow human being.

What rhymes with groupie? Robin Thicke’s Blonde Friend Speaks About Grope A new photo seen around the world wide web involving the crooner’s seemingly wandering hand is getting an explanation from the girl in the photo. Via CeleBuzz reports: Socialite Lana Scolaro tells CB! the photo-op happened as she snuck over to the DJ booth during the MTV VMA after party last Sunday. But it wasn’t the first time the two ran into each other. “We have mutual friends in common. I actually met him a week before the after party,” she told Celebuzz. “I was actually going over to the DJ booth and he followed me. His security guard took the photo and said, ‘you guys make a cute couple.’” The only thing is — the “Blurred Lines” singer is married to stunning actress Paula Patton. “I knew his hand was on my butt. I posted it on Instagram and didn’t notice the reflection. But someone noticed it and commented.” “I didn’t think it would cause this much drama. I didn’t know it would be all over everything like this,” she added. Well, it has. Maybe next time Scolaro will look behind at her behind before saying cheese. Continue reading →
For some reason Chris Brown has Rihanna going crazy since they made the Birthday Cake remix together. She’s been going in on Chris Brown’s now girlfriend Karrueche via Twitter lately. Last night Ri Ri tweeted a photo of a pack rice cakes w/ glasses and gold hoops (same ensemble Karrueche usually wears). Karrueche is half Vietnamese and a “rice cake” is a racist remark towards the Asian community. Rihanna is determined to win Chris back and get the other woman out of the picture. Thoughts?

It’s a dang shame when people can’t have privacy even after their death. Someone will always do something disrespectful which makes leaking Whitney Houston’s photo [in casket] a disgrace!! I’m furious that someone would have no regard for Whitney or her family. But thank goodness they found the person who sold the photos from the New Jersey funeral home to the National Enquirer. SMH! Star Ledger reports: Carolyn Whigham, who owns and runs the funeral home on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, and two local pastors said although they do know who took the photo, they would not identify the person. “It’s up to the Houston family to release the name,” said the Rev. Jethro James, pastor of Paradise Baptist Church. Whigham said that although the Houston family has closed its inquiry into the matter, the funeral home had not. She said she would consider taking legal action.
My name is Alexis and I never, in a million years thought I would be writing a Bieber experience. It happened on February 4, 2012, also known as my dad’s birthday! Yes on my dad’s birthday, he took me to see Justin! I was home watching ‘Never Say Never’ and when it was done, I went to my room to sleep early cause I didn’t get to go to the studio and I was soooo upset. My brother came into my room, woke me up and said, “Get up we are going”. I was shocked and said, “Where?” He answered, “To see Justin!” I FREAKED OUT! I haven’t gotten ready that fast in my life! (By the way, I live an hour away from the studio so even if we didn’t see Justin, I was gonna be happy and grateful) The real part of the night started off at 12ish when we got there! I had been there the night before and only gotten a picture with Justin’s security, Moshe. We got there and there was no people compared to the day before so my parents said we were gonna stay until he comes out! At about 1am Justin came out and skateboarded! This was after I got Mike and Moshe’s signature. As Justin was skateboarding, everyone was screaming and he tried to get us quiet but come on it’s Justin. No one could stop freaking out! After I asked him questions, he smiled and waved at me . He even stared right at me! Someone had asked him something and I forgot what he said but I answered at an awkward-quiet moment and said something like, “We love you and we are your beliebers” and Justin looked up at me and said, “I know”. Then I freaked out and yelled out, “OMB YOU TALKED TO ME”. He laughed and kept skating! As time went by, I asked more questions and he answered. Later on, Fredo went by and touched my hand! THAT WAS ONE OF MY DREAMS IN LIFE! At about 1:45am, Justin went around and signed everything everyone had! Justin touched my hand and I was just saying thank you over and over again. This had been the day, I had been waiting for the past couple years. I didn’t get a picture with Justin because he went inside! When he left, EVERYONE LEFT! But me and my sister were like, hey mom and dad, can we stay a little longer? SO WE DID! Best decision ever. My sister and I were standing across the road and we were the only car left. My sister said to me, Scooter is coming, so we walked to the gate and Scooter and Moshe noticed us and walked over! At this time, it was just me and my family (meaning my 3 sisters, parents, brother and sister’s friend!) We talked to Scooter but then about 15 people showed up. We talked to Scooter some more, got pictures and just had a great time! It didn’t feel like we were talking to someone famous at all, just an everyday person and I liked that. After Scooter talked to my dad and all of us! We got Scooter to call @blackollg on the phone because I was the only one who knew her and he wanted to thank her cause she is one of the most dedicated beliebers ever! Scooter didn’t even get through half of her Twitter name when he asked who knew her, and I was screaming “Omg I know her, that’s Shelly!” Then I realized I had her phone number! We called but no answer so he left her a voicemail! Let me just say she called me an hour later thanking Scooter and I! I was honored to be the one to tell Scooter about her! He even made a video for her and he used my phone! The entire night Justin, Scooter, Moshe, and Mike touched my phone! Then Scooter told us a story no one knows about Justin! I will never share it cause it’s between Scooter, Justin and all of us! It was the best night of my life. Then about 2 seconds after the story, my sister looks at me and goes, “That’s Justin” and everyone went crazy but he told us to please be quiet! He skated and talked to us but the paps came and he asked them to leave and we all were yelling at the paps! Justin was like, “here” and he posed and said, “Can you please leave now”. We told Justin that Scooter told us the story and he laughed! Throughout the night, Justin said ass and crap and I was like Omg our baby is growing up haha! Also, Justin’s voice is COMPLETELY different than ever! It’s so deep and cute! Finally he fell off his skateboard and just laid there and we were going insane of how funny it was. After he left, we talked to Scooter, got more pictures and later on that night at 5am, Scooter followed me on Twitter. It was the perfect night! My dream came true. To everyone who thinks this will never happen, say “NEVER SAY NEVER”. Look how far it got me. I owe it all to my parents, Scooter and Justin! THANK YOU AND I LOVE YOU. The CRAZIEST part of last night was it didn’t feel like they were celebrities at all. They are normal people. – @alexissBieber17 Read more: My name is Alexis and I never, in a million years thought I…
My name is Poppy Adkins. I’m 15 and I am from England . I never win anything and have always been so unlucky, so winning this massive competition was crazy. I heard everyone on Twitter was entering a T4 competition to fly out to LA and meet Justin at Paramount Studios and it was also the same competition that came with the Never Say Never DVD. I thought it was worth giving it a try! I forgot that I even entered when I came home from school one day and my parents sat me down and told me they got a call from T4 telling them I had won and me and my mum were going to meet Justin Bieber in 2 weeks time in LA! The day came when I met him and me and all the winners from other countries were all waiting together for Justin to arrive. Fi nally Kenny and Justin came in. Justin was so cute and said hi to everyone! I was second or third to meet him so I walked over & we hugged . Then we talked for a bit about where I was from etc and I thanked him for everything. Kenny took the photo and couldn’t work my mums camera, so me and Justin were standing next to each other for ages, waiting for the picture to take! He signed my book and we carried on talking and then he said, “Thank you so much for coming all this way”. I watched everyone else meet him and he looked over smiled and waved at me! Justin if you read this, thank you so much for everything. It was the best day of my life! And to all the fans, I hope you all get a chance to meet him! NEVER SAY NEVER! – @poppyjoadkins The rest is here: My name is Poppy Adkins. I’m 15 and I am from England. I…
I always had hope that one day I would write my own Bieber experience but I still just cannot believe it! Here is my story. I had bought my tickets for Justin Bieber’s concert in Adelaide , May 5 th 2011 and I was just way to excited! One of my best friends Bella and I are like the biggest fans and we have been supporting JB for about 2 years together! Our biggest dream was to meet him and we never gave up. We entered every single competition there was, no joke and sadly won none. It was 2 nights before the concert and I was talking to another friend from school, she told me about this one on BIEBERFEVER.COM and said not many from Adelaide entered so I had a good chance! It was the night before the concert and I was sleeping at Bella’s house. We still hadn’t heard anything from bieberfever so we assumed we had lost and went to bed pretty upset! I woke up to a slap on my face, all I heard was Bella screaming, “SARAH SARAH WE WON OMG IM NOT EVEN JOKING. WE ARE MEETING JUSTIN BIEBER!!!” She started crying and I thought I was dreaming, considering I was half asleep. Everyone was so happy for us and I just still couldn’t get through my mind that I WAS GOING TO MEET JUSTIN BIEBER! Just what the hell I couldn’t believe it! We spent the day stressing about what to wear and getting gifts for him! It was an intense day haha! We got to the entertainment centre, collected my wristbands for both Bella and I and went in to this small room waiting to meet Justin!! So many emotions were rushing through me I was getting so nervous and excited. I couldn’t wait much longer. Suddenly the security guard called for the next group of 4. This was it! Bella, Adri, Izzy and I went in. I put my gifts on the table and turned around and there he was, standing there in his hoodie! He put his arms out for a hug and said, “Hey guys” Omg I think I died inside, like in person he is so much more amazing! I was just in shock and Kenny noticed all our faces were just like :O and he was like, “do you remember his name?” and started laughing. I stayed next to him and we had a photo. After they took the photo I looked up to him cause he’s taller. He looked down and smiled and said, “Thank you so much!” He had his arm around me and then we had to leave so we all said goodbye I hugged him again and wished him luck for the show! Once we left, Bella like collapsed and started crying. We went to our seats and it was just the most amazing concert I have ever been too. That whole day will be one I will never ever forget! Also a month later , June the 5 th , Justin followed me on Twitter! I have never been so excited in my life; I MET HIM AND HE FOLLOWED ME! My life could not get any better! I seriously felt so extremely lucky. Meeting him was the most amazing moment in my life so far and I am so thankful I got the chance! He is an incredible person and so nice! – @sarzfantasia Read this article: I always had hope that one day I would write my own Bieber…
