Source: Kim Steele / Getty North Jersey Barbershop owner Young Hwan Choi has been arrested and charged with aggravated assault after authorities say he performed unlicensed laser surgery on a woman in a procedure that left her badly injured. NJ.com reports, Choi, who owns Shil La Barber Shop in Palisades Park, allegedly conducted botched laser treatment on the victim’s face in November 2017. Investigators found the 72-year-old was not a doctor and not licensed to provide the treatment, according to authorities. Meanwhile, the prosecutor’s office said the investigation was continuing and asked anyone else who possibly suffered from similar treatments to call Palisades Park police. Mr. Choi’s botch surgery left scars on the victim’s face and chin. He was arrested Friday and is scheduled for a court appearance next Wednesday.
Back in August, Ben Affleck checked into rehab for the third time following an intervention from his estranged wife, Jennifer Garner. Earlier this week, Affleck left in-patient care and penned a heartfelt message to fans in which he vowed to continue in his treatment. “I am fighting for myself and my family,” Affleck wrote of his road to recovery. Despite the fact that Affleck left rehab several times over the course of his stay, we’re sure Garner is pleased with his progress and will continue to support him in his battle with the bottle. That doesn’t mean, however, that she has any interest in continuing her marriage to the man. Jen and Ben have been separated since 2016, but complications over the custody of their three children have prevented the actors from finalizing their divorce. Sources close to the former couple say the delay was largely a result of Jen waiting for Ben to get sober so that she could, in good conscience, work out a custody arrangement that would enable him to remain a part of his kids’ lives. Now that he seems to be serious about steering clear of the booze, Jen has put their divorce proceedings on the fast track. It was previously reported that Affleck filed divorce paperwork while he was still in rehab . It now looks as though he did so at Jen’s behest. According to a new report from E! News, Jen is so serious about finalizing the divorce that she convinced an LA judge to come out of retirement just to make this thing official. The judge had presided over Ben and Jen’s initial filing, but because they took so long to pull the trigger, he entered retirement before they signed the final papers. A new judge would mean starting the entire process over again, and Jen was having none of that. So instead, with the same charisma and salesmanship she employs when convincing you to apply for a Capital One card, Garner talked the judge into hopping back on the bench one final time. We think it’s safe to say she and Ben will officially be exes sometime in the very near future. View Slideshow: 31 Celebrities Who Have Been to Rehab

The halftime performer uploaded a photo of him tying his laces while getting ready to hit the stage for his big night, and while many might not have seen anything wrong with it, everybody who knows anything about sneakers was completely turned off by the travesty they saw. Following Timberlake’s halftime performance, the first collaboration from the singer and Tinker Hatfield –who has designed many of the world’s most popular Nike sneakers throughout the year–was released on Nike’s SNKRS app. The Nike Air Jordan 3 JTH is now reselling for thousands of dollars online, but that doesn’t forgive what people were saying about JT’s poor Jordan etiquette. dat crease almost as bad as his treatment of janet https://t.co/pd50ucXbjg — Desus Nice (@desusnice) February 5, 2018 This why we not fuckin wit you @jtimberlake pic.twitter.com/ER2wdJsaLi — Theós (@_zensei) February 5, 2018 Normal person : Justin Timberlake’s voice is so good Me : * gets sad as I watch Justin Timberlake crease his jordan 3s — john (@Dat_dudejw) February 5, 2018 I ain't like what he did to them Jordans — Aneer (@Aneerinyourear) February 5, 2018 While his actual performance got some mixed reviews, pretty much everyone agrees that Justin Timberlake needs to take better care of his Jordans.

Sometimes it seems like Khloe Kardashian just can’t catch a break. Sure, she’s got more money than she knows what to do with, she has a big, loving family, she has her pick of basically any professional athlete she could possibly want. But with all of those pros, there are a good few cons: her marriage to Lamar Odom failed , she had to watch him nearly die, and they were never able to have children together, despite trying. And on top of all that, Khloe may be ruining her vagina. Earlier this month, Khloe took to her app to share a list of items and activities she uses to keep things in tip-top shape down there. There were several hygiene products on the list — a special vagina soap, wipes for on-the-go cleaning, lotions and creams. She also suggested her followers use some little Ben Wa balls, which, as she described, is “like Pilates for your cha-cha!”, and some fancy $200 device to check out the progress of her Kegel exercises. But she also advertised a “vajacial” — a sort of facial for your nether regions. And that’s where she goes wrong. Khloe gets her vajacials from some wax bar in L.A., and essentially she pays someone $75 for “exfoliation, toning, and a ‘face’ mask.” The treatment is also meant to remove any ingrown hairs and clear up pores. But as Dr. Amir Marashi, a gynecologist known in some circles as the Vagina Whisperer, tells Radar Online, the procedure definitely isn’t recommended . He does admit that “I like the fact that all celebrities are talking about vagina because we’ve been ignoring vaginas for a long time.” “I’m really happy celebs are talking — it makes it more comfortable for other people to start talking about it.” But still, he says “I prefer people to get their health care tips from doctors or health care professionals.” He also points out that since Khloe is so famous, someone giving her vagina a facial would likely be way more careful than they would with anyone else. “Patients come to me after this treatment,” he says. “It can very easily be harmed.” The issue, Dr. Marashi explains, is that when getting this vajacial nonsense, the salon worker will often extend the treatment to the inside, into the actual vagina. And you don’t want someone who isn’t a medical professional digging around in there with tools. So hey, how crazy is it that a doctor had to take the time to make a statement about how dumb a Kardashian is ? What a world. And you know we don’t mean that in a good way.

Kanye West was scheduled to be released from the UCLA Medical Center today, but TMZ is now reporting that the rapper will remain hospitalized for the foreseeable future. It’s not known at this time what prompted the decision, but sources say West was the one who decided he would benefit from further treatment. Details about Kanye’s condition are scarce, but those with knowledge of the situation say he has “not recovered” from the emotional breakdown he suffered last week. TMZ has confirmed that not only will West not be released today, there is currently no date set for his release, and he will remain hospitalized indefinitely. Indications that all was not well with Kanye began to surface last week when he canceled his Saint Pablo tour with little notice. Shortly thereafter, Kanye was hospitalized after suffering some sort of emotional breakdown. It was originally reported that West had been placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold after allegedly assaulting a member of his personal trainer’s staff. Those rumors have been debunked thanks to a 911 call that was released shortly after the incident. You can hear the recording – which features paramedics discussing the best strategy for handling the situation – below: Kanye West 911 Call: Listen Here! While we may never know all the details, it’s clear that whatever is going on with Kanye, it’s serious. Insiders say the rapper and husband of Kim Kardashian is suffering from “extreme paranoia” and exhibiting a number of troubling symptoms. When he first arrived at the treatment facility, he reportedly wouldn’t allow medical staff to touch him. Sources claim his condition has since improved, but it may be weeks before Kanye is able to be return home. View Slideshow: 16 Pearls of Kanye West Wisdom Some say his paranoia was triggered by Kim Kardashian being robbed at gunpoint and compounded by his feuds with high-profile figures like Jay Z. One insider claims there was a point at which West was convinced his former friend Jay had hired a hitman to kill him. While those reports remain unconfirmed, it’s apparent that West is in dire straits, and our thoughts go out to the music icon and his family during this incredibly difficult time.
