Selena Gomez: No Longer on Speaking Terms With Friend Who Donated Kidney

Back in 2017,  Selena Gomez underwent a life-saving kidney transplant . The donor was her longtime friend Francia Raisa, who risked her life in a procedure riddled with complications. Thankfully, both Gomez and Raisa survived the procedure. Their friendship, on the other hand, has officially been pronounced dead. According to a new report from Radar Online, Selena and Francia have not spoken in over nine months. “They haven’t talked at all since October,” a source close to the situation tells Radar. The news comes as a shock to many, as Selena repeatedly sang Francia’s praises in the weeks after her surgery. “She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me,” Gomez told Elle at the time. “I am incredibly blessed.” Selena tells the magazine she was so frail at one point that she was completely unable to perform the simplest of household tasks. “I couldn’t pick up my dog  — he’s 16 pounds. That was rough. I couldn’t walk him.” Despite her brush with death, there are certain lifestyle changes that Selena simply refuses to make. For example, while many who have had issues with their kidneys choose to steer clear of alcohol and other substances that might tax the organs, Selena has proudly proclaimed that she still enjoys the occasional glass of wine. “As far as my personal life, someone sees me having a glass of wine? I could give two sh-ts,” she told  Elle . “I’m not trying to hide. That’s my life.” While that’s certainly her prerogative, the folks at Radar speculate that Selena’s continued partying may have played a role in Rasia’s decision to end the friendship. Selena checked into rehab back in February, and many of her friends reportedly believe that drinking is one of the activities she should avoid for the sake of both her physical and mental wellbeing. We may never know exactly what led to the falling-out between Selena and Francia. But if Gomez was the one to pull the plug on the friendship — as is currently being rumored — we hope she can find it in heart to forgive her former friend. After all, she literally carries a piece of Raisa with her everywhere she goes.

Jade Roper Welcomes Baby Boy … in Accidental Home Birth!

Back in January, the Bachelor Nation was overjoyed to hear that Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert were expecting Baby #2 . Now, the happy couple has welcomed baby #2 — a beautiful newborn boy. But there’s a twist, because they never made it to the hospital, and Jade ended up giving bitrth at home … in the master bedroom’s closet. “I accidentally gave birth at home last night,” Jade revealed on Instagram on Tuesday. “In our master closet.” “I’ve been still processing the shock of this all,” she admitted. Jade clarified: “as this was not all at what I had planned.” “But,” she noted. “I am so so thankful for each person who helped bring our son into the world safely.” Along with her caption, Jade included a very candid photo from the scene. “I’ll share my whole birth story soon,” Jade promised her fans and followers. “But long story short,” she wrote. “My waters broke.” “And 75 minutes later,” Jade continued. “I gave birth to our healthy baby boy.” That is an exceptionall short labor! She wrote that she delivered her son “while clutching a bench in our closet.” “It was one of the scariest moments of my life,” Jade admitted. She then went on to explain that it was so frightening “because I felt so out of control.” Of course! Childbirth can be frightening under the best of circumstances. “But Tanner, Tanner’s mom, my mom, and the medics and firefighters kept me going,” Jade gushed. She praised them for staying by her side “when I felt like the world was caving in on me and my unborn baby.” “I was going to share the happy, cute Instagrammable pics first,” Jade told her fans and followers. You know, the classic shots of the mom with her newborn resting on her chest, or of the newborn in a cradle. “But,” she explains of the chaotic closet photo. “This felt right to me.” “So incredibly grateful for the support system we had,” Jade expressed. “And for this beautiful boy,” she concluded. “I get to hold in my arms.” Countless comments poured in after Jade shared her stressful story and her good news. Chris Harrison himself commented: “Now that’s the most dramatic delivery ever.” Lauren Burnham gushed: “Dang woman, you are amazing. Congratulations on your baby boy!” Speaking of Lauren Bs, Lauren Bushnell wrote: “Oh my goodness!!!!! Glad you and baby are ok!!!” “Wow!!!! You are a superhero girl!!!!!! Congratulations!!!” raved Vanessa Grimaldi. Pregnancy is a complicated thing. Due dates and delivery times can be difficult or even impossible to accurately predict. Labor often lasts several hours. For some, that means a full day of agony. For others, as was clearly the case with Jade, labor can come and go in less time than it takes to watch a movie. Having a solid plan to get to the hospital to give birth is a great idea, but it’s important for couples to realize that they can’t plan for everything. Childbirth can and will throw you for a loop.

Hannah Brown Stuns Bachelor Nation, Asks Tyler Out on a Date

So… have you picked your jaw up off the floor yet, The Bachelorette fans? Or, perhaps this would be a better question, following a crazy whirlwind of an insane Season 15 finale: Has your neck recovered from all that storyline whiplash just yet? FIRST on Tuesday night, Hannah dumped Tyler, saying him to his face that she was in love with Jed. SECOND on Tuesday night, Hannah accepted a proposal from Jed after he sang her a song and got down on one knee. THIRD on Tuesday night, Hannah kicked Jed tot he curb after she learned he basically had a girlfriend this whole time and was a total dirty rotten liar. And THEN on Tuesday night, toward the end of the After the Rose live studio special, well… … Hannah sort of pulled a Jason Mesnick. Allow us to explain: After breaking things off with Jed — who, again is a total dirty rotten liar — Hannah welcomed Tyler back into her life for the first time since she basically rejected his proposal in Greece. We learned on the After the Rose special that Hannah is now single and happy, but also still clearly thinking about a certain someone. And that certain someone felt the same way. “I’m so excited to see her,” Tyler told Chris Harrison on stage, adding of Hannah: “I was looking forward to this day, actually. It was a tough break up, and it was hard, but I have so much respect for you and I loved watching the season, how powerful and strong you’ve been.” Tyler said he believed Hannah was going to be “in good hands” with Jed, and it’s been difficult to see her go through this split. “She is a fighter, one of the strongest people I have met, the world is hers. And I know that,” he added. Then, it was Hannah’s turn to speak — and she made the most of it. “I know that with Tyler, he’s been so supportive and so respectful of me, not just on our journey together but even afterwards,” she explained on air, continuing as follows: “Our relationship was real to me and special and everything I said, I meant and I felt and it didn’t just go away, and I still, like, have feelings. “I’m really confident in who I am now and being on my own and growing and really taking everything I’ve learned and what I want in a next relationship, but I don’t know. ” Go on, Hannah! Just do it! Just say it! “I mean, I’ve always said I want somebody to be bold and I’m bold, and I make bold moves, and you’re an incredible guy and I’m a single girl…so? “I just thought maybe we could go for a drink and just hang out.” Tyler, your response? “I would love to, just tell me when, I’m there.” As the audience went berzerk, Hannah said the  two just need to be normal people and hang out, while Harrison said he’d even send a date card, which we’re pretty sure is the opposite of normal. But whatever. Mesnick, of course, was The Bachelor on Season 13. His situation was a little different from that of Hannah’s — but he did break up with Melissa Rycroft on the After the Rose special, only to then ask out Molly, his runner-up at the time. She accepted the simple date invitation… and now they are happily married! So there you have it, guys. But no pressure at all, Hannah and Tyler!!!! And the Winner is? Yes! Click Here To Vote for Yes! Heck yes! Click Here To Vote for Heck Of course! Click Here To Vote for Of Hannah Brown has sent Jed Wyatt packing… after accepting his proposal. Did she do the right thing? View Poll »

Grant Thompson, Hugely Popular YouTube Star, Dies in Paragliding Crash

Very sad news today out of the world of social media: Grant Thompson, one of YouTube’s most well-known and popular content creator, died this week in a paragliding accident. He was 38 years old. Thompson, who creator and starred in videos on his YouTube account King of Random , passed away on Monday night, his family confirmed via a sad online statement yesterday. “It is with great sadness to inform everyone that Grant Thompson passed away last night,” they wrote alongside a YouTube video tribute of the beloved internet star, adding very simply: “Grant had great love and appreciation for his fans.” “We invite you to share your thoughts for Grant and the channel in the comments,” his loved ones continued. “Please do a random act of love or kindness today in honor of The King of Random.” And they concluded as follows: Grant’s legacy will live on in the channel and the global community he created. At the time of his passing, Thompson’s aforementioned YouTube channel had over 11.6 million subscribers. According to TMZ, Buzzfeed and other outlets, authorities were alerted on Monday to a missing paraglider after the pilot was reported to have taken flight from the Dixie Springs subdivision near the state park in Washington. Washington County Sheriff Lt. Dave Crouse then confirmed to these websites that the body he and his team recovered near Sand Hollow State Park had been identified as Thompson. Local officials are continuing to investigate the incident and review video from the paragliding equipment to determine what caused the aircraft to crash. It’s unclear at the moment just what prompted this tragic crash. Thompson’s brother, Mark, told TMZ on Tuesday evening the that the YouTube personality had just recently picked up interest in paragliding and other airborne activities. He also reiterated what we said above: That the family was still learning what happened from investigators. Thompson joined the YouTube community in January 2010 as “The King of Random.” It didn’t take him long to accumulate subscribers with original videos about “life hacks, experiments and random weekend projects.” Thompson’s content — which came out nearly every day and covered everything from DIY projects to action-filled myth-busters — helped the 38-year old grow into one of the most-watched stars on the social platform with over 11 million subscribers — and over 2.4 billion views. In the wake of this devastating news, YouTube issued a statement about the loss of their former user and expressed their condolences to Thompson’s family, content team and fans. “We’re deeply saddened to learn of the tragic loss of Grant Thompson, a gifted, passionate and endlessly curious creator. We send our deepest condolences to his loving family, The King of Random team and fans,” they tweeted alongside his family’s tribute video. Added Matthew Patrick, creator of the Game Theorists YouTube channel, via a Tweet: “He was passionate and fearless with videos that inspired millions of future scientists. You’re gone FAR too soon, but the HUGE positive impact you made will be felt for a long time.” May Grant Thompson rest in peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2019: In Memoriam

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Recap: Camille Grammer Melts Down

If you thought the ladies were done talking about Lisa Vanderpump on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, then you should probably skip the rest of this recap.  Tuesday’s season finale picked up right where last week’s explosive installment left off.  Camille made a swift exit from the stage after another big blowout with the ladies, and Andy went after her because he seemingly knew she was the only one bringing the drama.  Camille felt like the whole thing was a “set up,” and couldn’t contain her tears after the way everyone targeted her.  “They’re just so nasty, and they’ve been wanting me to jump on this hate train with [Lisa] Vanderpump, and I’ve had my issues with Vanderpump, but sometimes, Vanderpump is so nice and caring and giving, and I miss her,” Camille said to the host. “And there’s parts — I understand what these girls are talking about, but you can still miss somebody! Andy, isn’t it okay for me to say something nice about Lisa without them all jumping on me? I feel ganged up [on] because I didn’t gang up on Lisa.” Andy tried to get Camille to understand that Kyle wanted to patch things up with her, but she was not ready because of the way Camille was being two-faced about things.  Back on the set, the ladies were stunned by the way things had transpired, but they were even more shocked when Andy managed to get Camille back to the stage.  Camille opened up about having the year from hell, saying that she was struggling with her mom’s health, the death of her assistant, and her house burning down.  But Camille refused to take the blame for anything, even the comments she made about Dorit and PK’s dire financial situation, calling the claims “absolutely irresponsible,” “very hurtful and very mean.” Dorit admitted that she could not be in a good place with Camille after that, even if they patched things up, there would always be some doubt there.  The talk then turned to Camille’s outlandish claim that Denise told her to call her daughter a liar. Denise refused that this was true, but apologized in case she did say it.  “When I saw that, I was like, ‘Where is this coming from? What did I ever do to you for you to even say something like that where you wouldn’t think I was empathetic?'” Denise asked. Camille said, “Okay.” But Denise wanted the truth. “I don’t know,” Camille replied. “I have no answer for you, and I’m sorry.” “This is where we think before we speak, Camille,” Denise yelled. “You say extremely hurtful things to us, and sometimes, there’s no truth to what you’re saying. You’re talking out of your ass. I’ve been nothing but nice and kind and very supportive of you.” “I have been wrong, and I’m sorry if I’ve been cruel,” Camille said as she started crying.  At the end of the hour, Andy wanted a reaction from Kyle about her fraught relationship with LVP, so he shared a video of their best and worst moments.  Kyle admitted that she brought Lisa’s birthday gift to the reunion after hoping that they could finally put the past behind them.  “It’s sad to me. It’s — it’s — it is. It’s sad to me,” she said. “It’s sad to me she’s not here. People tweet me pictures all the time, and every time I see something like that — of us joking, laughing — it makes me feel bad. Sorry, I can’t talk right now for a second.” “I paid the ultimate price by being honest,” she continued. “And I’ve thought about if I hadn’t gone to her house and not told her, and then she would’ve seen us sitting there.” “How would that have played out? It’s sad to think how she’s feeling right now. This must be a weird day for her, you know, knowing that we’re all here and she didn’t come. She’s gotta be feeling bad, too.” Kyle closed the hour by admitting that she thought things would blow over, and that they would patch things up at the reunion.  Ugh, no, LVP is done.  View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Orange County Shocker: Who Got Demoted?

Jo Rivera Goes OFF on Kailyn Lowry: She Kidnapped Our Kid!

At various times, Kailyn Lowry has had beef with all three of her baby daddies. But over the past year, she really seemed to have worked out an amicable co-parenting relationship with the father of her eldest son, Jo Rivera. Sure, there was the spat over Lowry paying Rivera child support , but for the most part, these two have gotten along swimmingly. And when Jo married Vee Torres  earlier this year, Kail was on hand to wish the newlyweds well. But that was then, and this is now — and it looks as though Lowry and Torres’ relationship has once again hit the skids. At issue is Kail’s frequent vacations to Hawaii with friend and co-star Leah Messer. The ladies usually bring their offspring along for the ride, and that’s where Lowry rubs Rivera the wrong way: “Kail took Isaac to Hawaii on June 30, even though Jo was scheduled to have him on the 4th of July from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,” a source close to Teen Mom 2 tells The Ashley’s Reality Roundup . “If Jo chose to file contempt on her, and Kail was found in contempt, she could be fined or even put in jail.” All of this has put MTV in an awkward legal position: “MTV could not film because legally, because if they did, it would be like they were encouraging Kail to break her custody agreement,” says the insider. “Then they would be part of whatever happened between Jo and Kail in court, had Jo filed.” Despite some serious consequences hanging over her head, it seems Lowry is completely out of f–ks to give: “Kail told [someone from the production/crew] that she was fully aware of the possible consequences, but that she decided it was worth sitting in jail for 24 hours, if it came to that,” the source claims. “Kail told [people] that Jo has taken Isaac out of state for ‘business’ without her permission, which is against their custody arrangement, so she just didn’t care anymore,” the source said.  As a result of this ongoing battle, Kail and Jo are reportedly “no longer on speaking terms.” “Kail and Jo do not get along at all. Jo has refused to film [for the upcoming season],” another production source tells The Ashley. “There is no footage of Jo in the next season. He does not want to deal with Kail or the show anymore.” And it seems Kail’s OG baby daddy is not alone in his decision: “Jo will not film for ‘Teen Mom 2,’ and, actually, Javi [Marroquin] isn’t filming either,” the source says. “Jo isn’t filming by choice, due to all of this conflict with Kail, and Javi is not filming because he doesn’t want his new business [a CrossFit gym] to be associated with the show.” It’s a sad situation — but it’s hilarious that Javi thinks his freakin’ gym will be more lucrative than the show. We suppose cast members fleeing like rats from a sinking ship is just number 4 bajillion why it’s time to cancel Teen Mom 2 .

Prince Harry: To Save the Planet, I’ll Have a Maximum of THIS Many Kids

Longtime fans of the Duchess were thrilled to see Meghan Markle’s British Vogue takeover . Within the magazine’s pages, Prince Harry sat down with the legendary conservationist, Dr. Jane Goodall. They spoke about the state of the world, concerns for the future, and Harry’s strict limit on how many children he might have. Prince Harry interviewed Dr. Jane Goodall for British Vogue ‘s September issue — an issue that his wife secretly guest-edited. “We are the one species on this planet that seems to think that this place belongs to us, and only us,” Harry remarks. Goodall agrees and remarks that humanity will likely continue to feud over resources, commenting that the state of the world is “terrifying.” She shares her suspicion that Harry has grown more anxious about the world, not less, since welcoming baby Archie into the world. “Well, it does make it different, doesn’t it?” the famed conservationist prompts him. “It does make it different,” Harry confirms. “I think, weirdly, because of the people that I’ve met and the places that I’ve been fortunate enough to go to,” he adds. “I’ve always had a connection and a love for nature.” “I view it differently now, without question,” Harry expresses. “But I’ve always wanted to try and ensure that, even before having a child and hoping to have children…” he begins. This is where Dr. Goodall cuts him off, interjecting: “Not too many!” “Two, maximum!” Harry acknowledges. That is extremely sensible for a number of reasons. “But I’ve always thought: this place is borrowed,” he shares. “And, surely, being as intelligent as we all are, or as evolved as we all are supposed to be,” Harry suggests. In his very correct view: “We should be able to leave something better behind for the next generation.” Dr. Goodall says that it was immediately clear to her that Harry was interested in conservation efforts. “We talked about Roots and Shoots and I said, ‘Of course you’re interested now, you have a baby,’ and he said, ‘Of course!’” she recalls. “When you bring a child into the world, you have to worry about the future,” Goodall points out. “If we don’t make change, we don’t have a future,” she reasons. “It’s as simple as that.” Dr. Goodall also had the privilege of visiting baby Archie at Frogmore Cottage and has shared her assessment of him. “He’s very cute and very gentle,” she praises of the royal baby. As we mentioned earlier, Meghan Markle was the secret guest editor for the issue. “I was about five months pregnant when this process began,” Meghan wrote. She continued: “and by the time you hold this issue in your hands, my husband and I will be holding our three-month-old baby boy in ours.” “It’s a very special time for me personally, on so many levels,” Meghan gushed. The Duchess continued: “working with Edward and his team, both during my pregnancy and my maternity leave, has played no small part in that joy.” She concluded: “It has been a privilege to be welcomed and supported by this amazing team.” Notably, this interview is not the first time that Prince Harry has put his foot down about the idea of raising a small army of offspring. Back in July of 2018, in Dublin, a 43-year-old woman named Elaine Adam-Stewart told Harry her story. “My husband also has red hair and he gave me five children,” she told him, asking: “When are you and Meghan going to get going?” Adam-Stewart recalled: “He laughed and said, ‘Five children? — too many.’” He’s right. While everyone has some degree of environmental impact, people of tremendous wealth tend to have a much larger carbon footprint.

Lady Gaga Is Dating Someone New … And His Wife Is Less Than Thrilled!

It’s only been six months since the world learned that Lady Gaga broke off her engagement with Christian Carino . But unlike her A Star Is Born alter-ego, who famously promised she’ll “never love again” in song — Gaga already appears to have moved on. Insiders tell E! News that the singer is “definitely dating” Dan Horton, a sound engineer with whom she’s worked for several years. “She’s known him for a while and it turned romantic recently,” an insider tells the site. She likes being with one guy and in a relationship and that’s what she was hoping to find.” The two have known each other since at least 2017, when he began working as her monitor engineer. “Dan is a really nice guy and she’s excited to spend time with him in this way. They are already very comfortable because they have worked together for a while.” the source says. And while Gaga and Horton have made no official announcement, it seems they’re cool with thr fact that the cat is out of the bag: “She’s glad the news is out and that she doesn’t have to hide it. She wants to be able to go out and do things with him,” the insider says. “So far they’ve been hanging out at home or in the studio. She’s having fun with him and seeing where it goes.” Prior to his relationship with Gaga, Horton was married to a New York-baaed stage actress named Autumn Guzzardi. There have been rumors that Horton and Guzzardi are still married, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. The couple divorced last year — although it seems Autumn might not be entirely thrilled by the fact that Horton has moved on with an A-lister. The actress posted this photo of herself on Instagram earlier this week: She captioned the pic, simply, “Poker Face,” an obvious reference to Gaga’s first hit. The comments featured many heartfelt condolences, with some speculating that Guzzardi is maintaining a poker face to mask her emotions. It’s a sad situation for Guzzardi, but it seems she may have to continue putting up with reports about Gaga and Horton’s blossoming relationship. After all, this fling appears to be much more than a bad romance.

SMH: Teen Allegedly Urinated On Shelf At Texas Walmart

Source: JIM WATSON / Getty So people have gone from licking ice cream to spitting in mouthwash to … urinating on stuff at Walmart? An incident Saturday in Porter, Texas happened where a teenager allegedly urinated on a shelf in a Walmart. The incident took place at the Walmart located at 23561 US-59 and video of the incident was shared on social media, according to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office. The alleged 15-year-old whizzer was with a group of other teens to attempt to steal a case of beer but they were stopped at the door by Walmart staff, according to deputies. What the staff didn’t realize, the 15-year-old had urinated on a shelf near the beverage aisle as they were leaving the store. It’s not the first video in recent days to emerge on social media of the act. A woman is wanted after she allegedly urinated on potatoes at a Walmart in Western Pennsylvania. Walmart staff in both incidents sanitized the area. Charges are expected to be filed against both parties. “The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office will not tolerate these types of vulgar acts. Tampering with consumer products is not only morally reprehensible but can be a felony offense by which offenders will be charged,” the sheriff’s office said.  Walmart issued the following statement: “This obscene conduct is outrageous and disappointing. As soon as we were notified, we sanitized the area to ensure its cleanliness and safety for our customers. We take this seriously and are working with the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office to find those responsible.”
