Bad news today for Teen Mom 2's Nathan Griffith – and it might also be some rare good news for his long-suffering ex, Jenelle Evans. The Ashley's Reality Roundup first reported that Griffith was arrested for driving while impaired in North Carolina on Thursday night. If he were a first time offender, Nathan probably wouldn't have much to worry about … but this is Nathan we're talking about here. Obviously, if you know his history, he's very far from that, and he's also in the midst of a particularly ugly custody battle with Jenelle. How does she feel about this right about now? Is his misfortune the lucky break she needed in the battle for their young son Kaiser? Well, it seems there'll be some cause for celebration on The Land tonight, and not just because of killing pigs or some redneck s–t. Take a look: 1. Busted Yes, it’s another arrest for another troubled Teen Mom 2 baby daddy, who was once engaged to Jenelle Evans before their relationship went horribly, terribly wrong. And this run-in with the law may have some major repercussions for Nate the Not-So-Great. 2. Nate the Not-So Great According to celebrity news site The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, Griffith was picked up by Wake County cops on Thursday. He was allegedly driving while impaired, and dude is still behind bars at press time. 3. Bad Stuff As far as we know, he’s currently being held on $10,000 bail. It’s not clear what Nathan’s financial situation is, but that five-figure sum is not a paltry amount to fork over just to secure your own freedom pending trial. 4. Waiting … Not the Hardest Part This Time According to The Ashley, Griffith may not get sprung until he goes before a judge. He is currently “awaiting trial,” and is scheduled to go before a judge on Friday. 5. A Dubious Distinction Nate, of course, is best known as the former fiance of Jenelle and the father of her son Kaiser, her second child. 6. Not a Competition, But … Granted, Nathan doesn’t have nearly as many mug shots as Jenelle (who does, in all seriousness?!), but he’s got quite a lengthy rap sheet of his own, and that’s likely to come back to haunt him to at least some degree here.

This week’s new Keeping Up With The Kardashians trailer showed, among other things, some intense feuding. Kim and Kourtney sound like they are once again at each other’s throats. A report says that Kris worries that, even if their fights are good for ratings, one day it could tear apart their close-knit family. An inside source opened up to HollywoodLife about the rising and ebbing tensions between Kim and Kourtney. “The girls do fight very dirty,” the insider acknowledges of the sisters. The source adds: “They don’t hold back and often say very hurtful things.” Yeah, they’ve more or less made a whole career out of that. And even after all of these seasons of filming, as we saw in the recent trailer, they’re still fully capable of putting each other on blast. The only good thing about their fights is that, when the sisters have differences, they aren’t allowed to fester for long. “But, they also don’t shy away from talking about it,” the insider observes. “When things get ugly,” the source adds. “Kris forces them to talk it out.” “She works very hard to play peacemaker when her girls fight,” the insider notes. The source explains: “because she knows how important it is that they stick together.” Kris is sure to emphasize to her children that solidarity is a source of strength. She drives home that message again and again. “If they don’t have each other they have nothing,” the insider characterizes. According to the source: “One of Kris’ biggest fears is that they’ll get into some sort of ugly family feud.” “She knows it could tear them apart,” the insider acknowledges. Second perhaps only to already being rich and beautiful, the way that the Kardashian family works together has been a key to their success. So, what about that nasty feuding that we saw in the Season 17 trailer? “Kourtney and Kim are getting along as of today,” the source announces. “They’ve always been the ones in the family that fight the most,” the insider notes. We been knew , as they say. “It’s been that way since they were very young,” the source reminds the world. “They love hard and fight just as hard.” In the Keeping Up With The Kardashians trailer that aired just days ago, Kris’ concern was palpable. “I feel like the really funny side of you guys outweighed the mean side,” the momager expressed to her daughters. Kris added: “And I feel like it’s gotten a little Mean Girls .” Nice nod to Kris’ role in Ariana Grande’s “Thank U Next” music video. Kourtney can be heard vocally complaining about her younger sibling. “Kim can be the biggest f–king evil person on the planet,” Kourt gripes. This is when we hear a furious Kim announces that she’s icing out Kourtney. “We’re firing Kourtney, she’s out,” she declares angrily. Kris clearly tries to calm Kim. “As much as I love you,” she tells her daughter. “You fight a lot dirtier than you used to fight.” “I feel like we just need to press a reset button,” Kris expresses. She adds: “You guys have got to get back to the fact that we’re just family.” View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Playboy Cover: Revealed, Very Busty!
Leah Messer takes a lot of vacations these days. Often — but not always — in the company of her Teen Mom 2 bestie, Kailyn Lowry, Leah has been hitting some of the finest beaches in North and Central America. It's hard to think of a downside in that lifestyle, but when you're famous and you post a lot of swimsuit photos, the trolls are sure to crawl out from under their bridges and try to tear you down. Small price to pay for the way Leah's been living, but still — this one had to hurt. Take a look: 1. Caught ‘Shopping? Leah Messer has been accused of photoshopping her latest swimsuit photo. And the people “calling her out” have been brutal in their commentary. 2. Not the Leah We Know Leah is generally regarded as one of the least-vain stars in the Teen Mom universe, and as far as we know, she’s never been caught retouching her photos before. 3. Keeping the Streak Alive And as far as we can tell, she hasn’t been caught retouching her photos this time, either. 4. The Snowball Effect Yes, Leah was “called out” by one hater and dozens of others followed suit — but we’re really not seeing any evidence of foul play here. 5. Haters Gonna Hate “God the photoshopping is horrible! Why even bother. I’m sure tons of people saw you in person on the trip,” wrote one such fiend. 6. What a Messer As far as we can tell, some people don’t understand how water can create a visual distortion effect. That’s really all we can come up with for why so many are convinced this pic has been altered. View Slideshow

Hopefully the birth of her new son is just the beginning of better days for Rose.

Kurt Sutter, the executive producer best known for having created Sons of Anarchy and then its spinoff, Mayans M.C., has been fired by FX. The writer himself confirmed the news in a letter he sent to the cast and crew of the latter drama on Thursday afternoon. According to The Hollywood Reporter insiders, Sutter was let go due to “multiple complaints” over his behavior on the series, which chronicles a biker gang viewers first met on Sons of Anarchy. As mentioned above, Sutter detailed his dismissal by FX CEO John Landgraf and Disney TV Studios and ABC Entertainment chairman Dana Walden in a message sent to those who had been working with him on The Mayans for the past two years. In this message, he described himself as an “abrasive dick.” Representatives for FX and 20th Century Fox TV have not yet commented on the development, while representatives for Sutter did not respond to the aforementioned outlet’s multiple requests for a remark. Filming and production on the second season of Mayans M.C. has already been completed. Last month, Sutter told fans at the Season 2 premiere that he was planning to down from his executive producer role should this Sons of Anarchy follow-up earn a third season from FX. “It’s time for the white man to leave the building,” he told the audience at the Hollywood screening. Sutter went on to say at the time that a person of color should run the writers’ room because it’s a drama about a Mexican biker gang on the California-Mexico border. Always an outspoken showrunner, Sutter appeared as the character of Otto in multiple episodes of Sons of Anarchy. He was also one of the main writers on legendary FX drama The Shield. “This morning I was fired by Dana Walden and John Landgraf for all the complaints levied against me,” wrote Sutter in his letter to the cast and crew, adding: “Not the way I wanted to end my 18 year relationship with FX. At least being fired for being an abrasive dick is on brand… “I deeply apologize if I’ve made people feel less than or unsupported. My intention was literally the opposite. But clearly I’ve not been paying attention. “My arrogance and chronic distraction has created wreckage. Just know, I adore this cast and crew.” Elsewhere, however, Sutter was far more pointed in his criticism of the decision. Here is his lengthy letter in full: Let me begin by saying, I know who I am. I know the impact of my process. I’m intense and passionate. I take what I do very seriously. That’s what having a vision manifests. And if you fuck with that vision, I’m gonna push back. When I’m right, I let the work speak for itself. When I’m wrong, I own it, make amends and fix it. I pride myself on having a supportive and empowering set. I try to acknowledge all the hard work everyone does. I’m clear that it’s a collaborative effort. And I try to pass that philosophy down to my writers and producers so they do the same. Disney letting me go today was apparently based on data collected by HR and Business Affairs from writers, producers, cast and crew. They claim the intel suggests that I created a climate of hostility, favoritism and enabled a set where no one felt safe or appreciated. I know that’s not true. I’m not saying it was all sunshine and roses, but I’m close with most of those guys and they love going to work. I’m also not sure how, having been on set… maybe three times all season, I was able to singularly create that much damage Never did I think the ship was off course until after mid season when I suddenly was bombarded with unfavorable reports about the tension on set. I am not going to mention names, because I don’t want to point fingers. So yes, there were complaints. And ultimately whomever they are about lands on me to fix. That’s when I contacted the network to let them know. They told me they’d look into it. And to sit tight. So I did. Who I have been hard on this season is the studio and network. I’ve felt the creative scrutiny of Disney from day one. Notes on scripts and cuts have been heavy handed. Demanding a level of dumbing-down story and inane PC restraints like I’ve never experienced before. I genuinely feared for the creative future of the storytelling. So I pushed back.Hard. No different than I have in the past. In fact, much tamer than I ever was on SOA. However, I was dealing with personnel who didn’t know me. And my level of… passion. Clearly I ruffled a few mouse ears. I know my role at Mayans MC was going to be greatly reduced. I am handing off the show to Elgin. So it’s not the job that’s the issue. What pisses me off, what hurts the most, is that John Landgraf and Dana Walden sat across from me and sited a summary of a slanted truth formulated by lawyers and clerks. They blamed my dismissal on the cast and crew. People I care about. People I respect. They had no first hand knowledge of anything they were saying. They’ve never been on set or spoken to any of my people. I’m not saying all of the intel was bullshit. But I know that’s not why I was fired. The truth is, the suits wanted me gone. I stepped on toes and bruised egos. And in this Disney regime, I’m dangerous to the wholesome brand. And clearly not worth the trouble. So 18 years of friendship, loyalty and producing quality television, was flushed down the drain. They threw me under the fucking bus. I send this diatribe because I feel deeply wronged. They embarrassed me. They created a false narrative that could damage my reputation and career. I want them to understand the depth of that mistake. Talk soon. Thanks. ks. sutterink, the letter concluded.”
Bella Hadid has been dubbed The Most Beautiful Woman in the World . By editors at People Magazine because her PR team struck up a deal with the publication? No, but something far more reliable and concrete than that… … by science. On Tuesday, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Julian De Silva explained that the supermodel took this important crown based on modern facial mapping techniques, using the classic Greek “Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi.” Really. We’re not making this up. Dr De Silva — who runs London’s Centre For Advanced Facial Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery — said this conclusion was arrived at as follows: “Bella Hadid was the clear winner when all elements of the face were measured for physical perfection. “She had the highest overall reading for her chin which, with a score of 99.7%, is only 0.3% away from being the perfect shape. Bella also came second behind Scarlett Johansson for the positioning of her eyes.” Seriously, how often have you sat there and marveled at just how well-positioned Hadid’s eyes were? The doctor continued to break it all down: “Beyoncé ran her a close second, scoring the highest marks for the shape of her face (99.6%) and getting very high scores for her eyes, brow area and lips. “These brand new computer mapping techniques allow us to solve some of the mysteries of what it is that makes someone physically beautiful and the technology is useful when planning patients’ surgery.” As detailed above and laid out below, Beyonce finished second to Hadid, Amber Heard came in third, Ariana Grande came in fourth and Taylor Swift rounded out the top five. Here’s the thing, though: While science is typically a strong indicator of something’s validity (see change, climate), there’s something even stronger out there: The passion of the Beyhive, which simply can’t believe their heroine failed to finish atop this list. “There is no world where Bella hadid looks better than Beyoncé. None. Not even on Opposite Day,” wrote one Twitter follower, while another broke out the race card: i’m sorry? i just heard that beyoncé came SECOND to bella hadid for the most beautiful person in the world????? ugh racism. Kate Moss, Scarlet Johannson, Natalie Portman, Katy Perry and Cara Delevigne also made the top 10. As for this Golden Ratio thing? It was was used by artists such as Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci to mathematically calculate beauty for their works of art. According to the equation, the closer the ratios of a face or body are to the number 1.618 (Phi), the more beautiful the object. However, when applied to the human form as a criteria of beauty, many have criticized it for preferring certain features and promoting racist stereotypes. All that said, let’s settle this debate once and for all, shall we? Go ahead and vote below: WHO IS MORE BEAUTIFUL, BELLA OR BEYONCE? And the Winner is? Bella Hadid Click Here To Vote for Bella!

For some reason, men have come up with a number of unpleasant euphemisms for their wives over the years. Old ball and chain . Old battle-axe . Most don't say these things within earshot of their wives. But this week, a Wheel of Fortune contestant did that and more on television, announcing that he was trapped in a loveless marriage. Blair Davis owns a small trucking business in San Diego. While some Wheel of Fortune contestants may hope to get a boost to sales by appearing on TV, Blair drew attention for another reason. And no, it was not his incredibly distinctive beard. His comments about his wife, children, and grandchild raised eyebrows. Some viewers were shocked while others were rolling around on the floor in stitches. “I've been trapped in a loveless marriage for the past twelve years,” Blair states matter-of-factly. He continues, saying that he has been married “to an old battle-axe named Kim.” “She cursed my life with three stepchildren,” Blair accuses. “Named Star, RJ, and Ryan.” “And,” he concludes. “I have one rotten grandson.” At this, Blair nearly breaks character as he smiles. The audience laughs, some amused and in on the joke, the others nervously, though the smile helped give it away. Host Pat Sajak makes the best of it, yelling “Yayyy!” He then acknowledges: “I know you're being facetious.” Busted, Blair fully smiles and acknowledges that. “I love them like nobody's business,” he says. Some folks on Twitter took the man's jokes a little too seriously. “Most likely will be either sleep on the couch or in the guest bed,” predicted one tweet. Another wrote: “Game shows need more brutal honesty.” “Well all I can say is…'Pat handled that very well'…” another added, referring to the initial awkward tension. “So was he serious or what?” another tweet straight-up asked. “I think he meant sexless? He looks drier than hell,” accused one tweet. One of the Twitter denizens who saw that took the opportunity to strongly disagree. “Most truckers are hornier than rabbits in an eat patch and can usually deliver,” a reply reads. That same tweet continued: “My late one really could deliver the goods. Don't be deceived by the packaging.” Well that's more than we needed to know. Will any of us ever look at truckers the same way again? “This could be us,” one young man tweeted in response to the video, tagging a young woman. She saw the tweet and the source material, and replied with her own jab. She wrote to him: “Get to growin that beard then.” Be careful when you make jokes like that. Some guys will take it seriously and then get too into it. Imagine getting trapped with a beard like that because of an offhand joke. Others just enjoyed the bit for what it was. “He said what we always wanted someone to say. Fantastic,” applauded one. Another simply commented: “This was hilarious.” Of course, then a truther with a profile photo from James Cameron's Avatar of all things piped up. “He wasn't joking at first,” the tweet asserted. “It was just spun off as being such.” We have a sneaking suspicion that he was joking the whole entire time. What a cute moment.
