Not only did the 47-year-old stunner launch her natural hair care line Pattern , she’s back this season for black-ish and mixed-ish (a comedy she narrates, co-created and produces), but she’s been killing the magazine game. Not only was she the cover girl for Glamour UK’s November issue , but she is gracing us again on the cover of Allure . As part of their “See Yourself, See Each Other,” series partnership with Ulta , Ross looks fresh on their digital cover rocking a brown Bottega Veneta jumpsuit, a Gucci earring (worn as a brooch) and Mateo green drop earrings. Of course, she used her own Pattern products to achieve her signature curls. View this post on Instagram “It’s about taking up space. It’s about being who you are and being supported in that and being loved for that. For that exact thing that is who you are.” @traceeellisross opened up to Allure about her thoughts on self-acceptance and how it served as inspiration in the creation of her new hair care line @PatternBeauty.

Too often, covers are aggressively lit and photoshopped, but not this one.) In her interview , Ross admits that she worried that for the initial launch of Pattern at Ulta, they were going to stock too much product, but she soon realized that within days all 1200 Ulta locations basically sold out of her line. She also shares what this line for Black women means to her. “It was about actually expanding the paradigm and allowing us to see ourselves in all of our beauty,” Ross tells Allure. “To have our beauty reflected back to us in imagery and in [a] narrative that was about who we are, and our legacy and our power.” View this post on Instagram “You’ll spend years holding yourself to a beauty standard that doesn’t make space for you.” For this special edition digital cover, we talked to @TraceeEllisRoss about her mission as an actress, executive producer, and beauty entrepreneur.

A post shared by British Vogue (@britishvogue) on Nov 7, 2019 at 8:56am PST The “Cuz I Love You” singer opened up in the interview, speaking candidly about a range of topics including how anxiety fuels her as a performer. “When I get really, really anxious before a show, I just go harder and harder and harder when I’m performing and I just go crazy,” she says. “I don’t know why, but my anxiety sometimes fuels who I am as a performer and who I am as an artist – and I know that is not the case for everyone. I don’t know if my body just, like, out of a desperate need to find a place for my anxiety or find a use for it, takes it and puts it there,” the Houston-raised rapper admitted. View this post on Instagram “I want you to know that if you can love me, you can love your goddamn self.” Born in Detroit to a religious family and raised in Texas, Melissa Jefferson, a.k.a.

When you don’t see yourself, you start to think something’s wrong with you. Then you want to look like those things and when you realize it’s a physical impossibility, you start to think, ‘What the f**k is wrong with me?’ I think that took a greater toll on me, psychologically, growing up than what anyone could have said to me.” View this post on Instagram “I’m not trying to sell you me, I’m trying to sell you, you.” In today’s image-obsessed age, @LizzoBeeating is a megawatt beacon of self-assurance – so utterly herself that it is impossible for it not to rub off on you.

A post shared by British Vogue (@britishvogue) on Nov 7, 2019 at 10:02am PST On people ( perhaps Azaelia Banks ) who believe Lizzo is using body positivity to gain popularity, Lizzo had this to say: “Anybody that uses body positivity to sell something is using it for their personal gain. That’s just it. We weren’t selling anything in the beginning. We were just selling ourselves and selling ourselves on the idea – selling ourselves on ourselves, you know? I’m not trying to sell you me. I’m trying to sell you, you.” LOVE IT! You better tell ’em! In an accompanying video, Lizzo keeps it 100 about her “first acts,” which she shared that she was hungover shooting her Vogue cover, that her first memories of music were gospel music and the first album she ever bought was Destiny Child’s “Survivor.” Take a look: Congrats Lizzo!

Last month, Cynthia Bailey revealed that Kenya Moore still loves her cheating husband , Marc Daly. It’s one thing to hear it from a friend. It’s even worse to hear it from Kenya herself. In a new interview, the first-time mom confirms that she’s still in love with Marc. She even threatens that they could reconcile. Speaking to Us Weekly, Kenya admits that Marc Daly “still is” the love of her life. “I love my husband,” Kenya says, even though the two of them split some time ago. She opines: “But I think that we’re not operating from a good place right now, prior to announcing [our split].” That’s both a complicated statement and a vague one. In a line sure to make countless fans worry, she admits that she is at least open to the idea of reconciliation. “But I do think that things could get back on track,” Kenya spculates. She notes that this would be possible “if you have two people that want to.” Notice how Kenya continues to avoid confirming any of what Marc may have done. Kenya seems to have accepted that this could just be a hurdle, stating that sometimes “couples go through things.” She does not explain what that “something” might be in this particular situation. Kenya states that what happened to fracture her marriage may actually be forgivable. As she sees it, a person “can get over” just about anything with the right mindset. Girl, that does not sound healthy. “There were difficulties in terms of distance,” Kenya says, taking vague references to marital problems to new heights. “And, you know, when [our daughter] Brooklyn was born,” she explains. “It changed our dynamic as a couple.” One, if having a kid changes your dynamic for the worst, either don’t have a kid or get a better partner. Two, we hope that Brooklyn doesn’t grow up, read that interview, and feel like she ruined her mom’s best chance at happiness. “So, it’s been really hard to get things back on track,” Kenya expresses. She then threatens: “but I’m still very hopeful that we can.” “I just don’t know what the future holds,” Kenya concludes. None of us do, but it sounds like Kenya is hyping herself up to make a terrible mistake instead of a clean break. Why are fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta so thoroughly disgusted with Marc and so opposed to the idea of a reconciliation? It’s simple: they saw how much Kenya sacrificed for Marc. First, she held their wedding in secret, cutting Bravo out of a major life milestone in a way that infuriated showrunners and producers. Then, Marc remained camera shy and Kenya went along with it. For a time, it cost her her job. It’s true that Marc eventually agreed to film and that Kenya was able to return to the franchise, but she missed out on a whole year of stardom. And for what? For a man who allegedly cheated on her left and right . Marc had previously made very reasonable complaints about how he’s observed black men on RHOA portrayed as partners. How is a man going to make a point like that and then go cheat on the mother of his child? Kenya deserves better.

The stars of the Teen Mom franchise receive an endless amount of flak for their parenting decisions. In many cases, this criticism is well-deserved, such as when Jenelle Evans protects David Eason against allegations that he’s abusing her children. But there are times in which the fans over-step their bounds and hurl unsolicited advice at moms who aren’t doing a damn thing wrong. Leah Messer is often on the receiving end of this sort of concern-trolling. Leah’s daughter Aliannah suffers from muscular dystrophy but most of the “advice” she receives has to do with Ali’s twin daughter, Aleeah, otherwise known as Gracie. And sadly, most of it has to do with concerns over the 9-year-old’s attire. Aleeah is a cheerleader , and photos from her competitions have attracted disturbing comments about her allegedly “age-inappropriate” attire. Earlier this week, Leah posted pics of her daughters’ Halloween costumes, and now it seems we have to relitigate this dumb “controversy” all over again. (No, we don’t know why she waited until November to post Halloween pics, but like we said, she’s got a lot on her plate.) Hilariously, the twins decided to dress as modern pop icons, while Leah’s youngest dressed as a member of the Hogwarts student body: “When they want #ArianaGrande #Beyonce andddd a #witch … Mom makes it happen,” Leah captioned the pic. And sadly, the criticism started rolling in immediately: “Aleeah looks way too grown up,” wrote one commenter . “Gracie looks 15,” another person remarked. “That girl is gonna be troubleeeee.” Yikes. Thankfully, not all of the comments were so negative: “OMG I thought the one that was Ariana Grande was dress[ed] up as you LMAO,” one person remarked. “Now they are starting to look like mini yous!” another echoed. “Gosh they have grown, so beautiful,” a third wrote. “Oh my goodness!! They look fabulous! Aleeah looks like she is grown!” remarked another fan. Obviously, the vast majority of the criticism is baseless and idiotic, and the commenters should keep that crap to themselves — especially when we could be focused on more important issues like why Leah chose to give her kids such similar names! Like it’s not confusing enough having a Leah and an Aleeah under the same roof, you have to throw and Aliannah into the mix, too?! Sorry, we just needed a brief vent session. Anyway, stop ragging on Leah for how she dresses her kids, y’all. It’s a bad look. View Slideshow: Leah Messer Opens Up About Daughter’s Tragic Illness: She’s Trapped in This Body!
Reunited… and it feels so good? We can’t say for certain. But it looks pretty darn good at least. On Thursday, November 7, Teresa Giudice‘s oldest daughter, 18-year old Gia, shared a photo from her and her sisters’ wildly-anticipated reunion with their dad, Joe Giudice, in Italy. As you very likely know by now, considering you’re reading this piece of celebrity gossip content, Joe has been living abroad as he awaits the ruling on his final deportation appeal. The former Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member was sentenced to deportation about a year ago, close to the end of his stint in prison for bankruptcy fraud. The above snapshot marks the first time Joe has been with his entire family since his release from both jail and ICE custody. “We’re back,” wrote Gia as a caption to the family photo, which includes siblings Gabriella, 15, Milania, 13, and Audriana, 10. Off to the side, you can also see Teresa Giudice, who had previously said the future of her marriage was dependent on this visit to see Joe. Back on Octobere 27, Joe appeared in his first television interview since he was sent to the clink in March of 2016, spaeking via satellite with Teresa in a Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen special. During this interview, both Teresa and Joe told Cohen they’re at a major crossroads with their marriage — and would not be making any decisions until they spent some time together in person. They claimed they hadn’t seen in each in almost four years. “I’m waiting until I get there to see if I feel differently,” Teresa said on air. “I just feel like when you live apart. … He says the same thing, when he sees me, he may not want this either. We’ll know when we see each other.” Welp. Now they’ve seen each other. So we’ll keep checking the Internet every hour going forward until we read about the inevitable divorce announcement. Both husband and wife have maintained that they still love each other, but they’ve also leveled accusations of infidelity at each other . Teresa also reiterated that she would have no choice but to divorce Joe if he is, indeed, deported. “I want to wake up with someone every single day,” Teresa said, alleging that her kids are on board. “I think they get it. I don’t think they want to see it happen, obviously, but I think they understand. Because the way I explained it to them, how are we going to live apart? “I don’t think he would be faithful. I think he would have someone there and have me here. I just don’t want to live that life.” Where does Joe stand on this topic? “If we stay together, we stay together, if we don’t, we don’t,” he said, sounding totally committed and in love. “It’s a conversation, we’ll see. … “As long as she’s happy, that’s all that really matters. I’m not going to tell her what to do. If she doesn’t feel like she wants to be with me anymore, then that’s the thing to do.” View Slideshow: Teresa Giudice vs. Joe Giudice: The Most Shocking Interview Reveals!
LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP! When Amber Portwood chants this these days, she is not talking about Donald Trump and his impending impeachment trial, according to new legal paperwork filed on Wednesday, November 6. Instead, she's talking about ex-boyfriend Andrew Glennon. Portwood believes Glennon ought to be held in contempt because he is not abiding by the rules of the former couple's custody agreement. In what way? And could this actually happen? Scroll down for an update on the very troubled Teen Mom… 1. Everyone Knows How We Got Here, Right? Amber was arrested on July 5 for allegedly attacking Andrew while he was holding their 18-month old son in his arms, James. 2. She Even Threatened to Kill Herself AND Used a Machete Allegedly, that is. Andrew has said Portwood swallowed a bunch of pills (and then threw them back up), prior to using a machete to try and break down the bathroom door behind which Andrew and James were hiding. 3. Is She Going to Jail? No. We previously detailed how Amber ageed to a plea deal and will almost definitely avoid jail time for this incident. 4. What About Custody of James, Though? That’s the question we’re dealing with now… and we have a bunch of details and updates we can offer to readers. 5. Let’s Start with This: Andrew has primary custody of the toddler. This is understandable and this has been the case ever since Amber was taken into custody. 6. When and How Can Amber See Her Son? She can only see her son on three non-consecutive “days” per week, with one of those days (likely on the weekend) for 10 hours. The other days’ visits must last for no more than three hours.

Even though Becca Kufrin knows how to throw some shade at her ex when the moment is right, she’s known for being a good, kind person. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about some very vocal Instagram trolls who harass public figures every single day. In a new, heartfelt post, Becca pleads with them all to be kinder and less cruel. “You don’t need me to remind you, but life can be rocky,” Becca’s post begins. “People can be harsh.” “In our current climate, the internet can often times be the biggest weapon against our soul,” she characterizes. Becca observes: “Social media has taken over and will only keep growing.” “Because of that, so will our insecurities, jealousie,s and hurdles we face as women,” she predicts. Becca writes: “And it’s the unfortunate truth that social media is linked to a significant increase in anxiety, depression, suicide, and body image issues.” “For two years I’ve been thrust into the public eye on a scale that I never imagined possible,” she points out. “Yes, this was my doing by entering reality TV,” Becca acknowledges. She adds: “But nothing could prepare me for the amount of constant commentary and opinions being thrown at me.” “This feedback not only includes criticism on my love life,” Becca details. “But on how I look, speak, dress, and apply (or don’t apply) my makeup.” “And, at times it’s downright hindering,” she admits. “I’ve had days where I didn’t want to leave bed because of the anxiety I felt on a social scale.” “And I’m not alone,” Becca observes. “I’ve had countless conversations with others.” She has spoken to people “who have felt inadequate because of someone with mean, type-happy fingers.” “Many of us feel like we are drowning,” Becca laments. “Because we have to live up to some unattainable social goal.” “Let’s change this,” she suggests. “Let’s all take a step back and maybe NOT type a rude comment.” Becca continues: “or hit “send” with demeaning words into someone’s DMs.” “Who are we to judge another person by the makeup she puts on, how white our teeth are, or if we forgot to wash our hair for six days straight?” she asks. “As women, we need to do a better job of building ALL humans up,” Becca proclaims. She continues: “Of using our voices to support one another no matter our education level, ethnicity, background, etc.” “Let’s focus on the positives of individuals and spread care,” Becca recommends. “Because if not,” she warns. “The pressures of being perfect, and anxieties when we aren’t, will only consume us.” “A gentle reminder that Instagram is not reality,” Becca emphasizes. “It does not define who we are to our core.” “It can only give a MINOR glimpse into our daily lives,” she reminds followers. “But what is said through social media can leave a lasting impact,” Becca states. “So spread a little kindness.” She concludes: “Tell a stranger how contagious her smile is in a recent photo, double tap a compliment, and remember to go easy on others and yourself.” This sounds like great advice for countless Instagram trolls and also for Garrett Yrigoyen .

Large sections of the Old Testament are devoted to genealogies — lengthy lists of couplings and the biblically-significant offspring that they begat. Given the Duggars' love for the Good Book, we're sure someone in the family has compiled a similar compendium of the courtships and marriages that led to the creation of Jim Bob and Michelle's many granchildren. It might seem like it would take a monastic scholar to keep track of the rapid expansion of the Counting On clan, but we managed to create a complete list of the #LittleDuggars without locking ourselves in an abbey with a quill and parchment. But that's not to say it was a simple task. After all, Jim Bob and Michelle have a lot of kids, and those kids are very dedicated to the task of populating Northwest Arkansas with Duggars. So sit back, grab a Duggar-friendly snack (might we suggest a jar of pickles?) and explore the family tree of the most beloved Baptist brood on reality TV: 1. Meet the Duggars The Duggar family seems to get bigger by the day. In fact, the Counting On clan has welcomed so bundles of joy in the past decade that some fans might find it difficult to keep up. 2. Humble Beginnings Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar had their first child, Josh, in 1988. Needless to say, they didn’t stop there. 3. Fame Comes Calling The family first rose to national prominence with a series of Discovery Health and TLC documentaries that mostly focused on Michelle’s last five deliveries. 4. A Bunch of Stars Are Born Viewers couldn’t get enough of the wholesome Arkansas clan, and it wasn’t long before the Duggars had their own show. 5. On the Grow Initially titled 17 Kids and Counting, the series documented the adventures and unorthodox customs of the still-expanding Duggar clan. 6. Overlapping Generations That expansion occurred in more ways than one, as Jim Bob and Michelle welcomed their youngest child (Josie Duggar, now 9) AFTER welcoming their first grandchild.

John Crist, a Christian comedian and popular YouTube personality, has issued a lengthy statement and canceled his tour amid allegations that he to used his celebrity statis to sexually harass and exploit women. Crist didn’t really deny these accusations in his statement, either. The comedian has spoken out a day after a report published by Charisma News detailed claims made by five women against Crist. The outlet writes that “Crist has exploited his Christian reputation and platform to harass, manipulate and exploit young women over the last seven years.” To quote from the report: The allegations include, but are not limited to, individually sexting multiple women during the same time period, initiating sexual relationships with married women and women in committed relationships, offering show tickets in exchange for sexual favors and repeatedly calling these women late at night while drunk. YIKES, huh? Crist has more than 526,000 YouTube subscribers and over 1.3 million combined followers on Instagram and Twitter. In response to the above article, Crist wrote the following to Charisma News: “Over the past number of years, various women have accused me of behavior that has been hurtful to them. “While I am not guilty of everything I’ve been accused of, I confess to being guilty of this — I have treated relationships with women far too casually, in some cases even recklessly.” Crist continued: “My behavior has been destructive and sinful. “I’ve sinned against God, against women and the people who I love the most. I have violated my own Christian beliefs, convictions and values, and have hurt many people in the process. “I am sorry for the hurt and pain I have caused these women and will continue to seek their forgiveness. “I have also hurt the name of Jesus and have sought His forgiveness.” Crist had been scheduled to film a Netflix special, but the company now says that program is on hold. He further revealed in his statement that he has sought professional treatment to help with his “addiction struggles” and added: “Over several recent years, I have privately sought and received regular professional treatment for my sexual sin and addiction struggles.” He didn’t go into much more detail about these struggles and/or what they entail. More from his statement: “I’m committed to getting healing and freedom from my sin and have decided to cancel my remaining tour dates this year and to postpone all future commitments in order to devote all my time and energy on getting healthy spiritually, mentally and physically.” Crist earned a spot on Pollstar’s Top 100 Tours Globally list in 2019, “with over 197,000 tickets sold for his ‘Human Being Tour,’” according to the star’s biography. The 35-year-old comedian was most recently romantically linked to country singer and American Idol alum Lauren Alaina; they split in September. According to Crist’s statement, “Those closest to me — my family, team and close friends — have known about this battle for some time, and now you do too.” And he concluded: I don’t blame anyone but myself. I’m responsible for my actions and I’ve repented and am taking full ownership. I realize it will be difficult for some people to ever forgive me, and I accept that as a result of my bad decisions and actions. My entire career has been lived out on stage, and even though I’ve shared many of my life struggles with my audiences, I’ve lived in constant fear of the darkest parts of my life being exposed publicly. My greatest fear has been that those who have loved and supported me would hate me if they knew everything about me. I now humbly seek forgiveness and mercy and love — not just for me, but for those I’ve hurt along my path. I’m so sorry.
