At this point, viewers of The Real Housewives of Orange County are almost as tired of that Kelly Dodd sex rumor as Kelly is. Remember, it was Tamra who first blurted it out after Vicki kept loudly dropping “hints.” Now, Tamra explains that she brought it up with the purest of intentions. In fact, she was trying to help . Tamra Judge sat down with Entertainment Tonight to explain why she blurted out the rumor when she did. “I feel I did the viewers a favor,” Tamra explains. “It was something that was told to Shannon [Beador] and Vicki last year, offseason,” she details. Tamra says that it was a “friend” of Kelly's who told them. “They told me, we three knew about it,” Tamra continues. “I never really thought it was gonna be brought up or an issue or anything.” “But then,” she recalls. “Vicki kept going, going and I'm like, 'Are you talking about the train?' Almost like, 'That stupid rumor?'” Though her intentions were good, Tamra says that she had no idea that “it was gonna go that far.” “So, when the season started this year, Kelly and I were talking a lot,” she acknowledges. “We were drawn together,” she explains. “Because I know what it's like to be a victim of Vicki rumors, right?” “She would talk to me all the time and I’m like, 'I get it, I get it!'” she describes. “And she's like, 'I don't know how you can forgive her!' And I'm like, 'It takes time.' I felt bad for her!” Tamra admits. But it didn't last. “And then it would just — I would say, three quarters into the season, everything falls apart.” “Kelly does something towards the end of the [season] that is very hurtful and very damaging,” Tamra laments. “I tried not to bring too much light to it,” she explains. Tamra says that she avoids discussing the betrayal “because I really didn't want to talk about it.” “So,” she continues. “I kind of kept those emotions in.” “I really thought that I was trying to help her, and I was being a good friend to her,” Tamra narrates. “And then all of a sudden, I go away on a vacation and come back,” she recalls. “And,” Tamra reveals. “I find out she's trashing me to everybody.” She doesn't know how this huge change took place — but she expects to find out. “So, I really don’t know what happened, 'cause I haven't seen it yet,” Tamra explains. “I'll find out when everybody else does.” Despite her membershp in the Tres Amigas, Tamra sees both sides of the Vicki vs Kelly feud. “Trust me, they are both as equally as mean to each other,” Tamra acknowledges. “I think me and Shannon are trying to navigate between the two of them, and we always say we're on the right side. That's it,” she expresses. “They're both being mean to each other,” Tamra notes. “If you're gonna be nice, then I'll agree with that.” “If you're gonna be mean,” she adds. “I'm gonna disagree with that. That's it.” Right now, Kelly seems to only have one castmate left in her corner. “Right now, she has Emily [Simpson],” Tamra points out. She continues, noting that Emily's the one “who’s been out there bashing all of us, every single one of us on social media.” “And we have all kept our mouths quiet,” Tamra characterizes. “The only one that she has right now is Emily.” It doesn't sound like this complicated feud is going to be resolved any time soon.
Jennifer Aniston covers the October issue of InStyle. Considering the actress is 50 years old and still looks the way she does, editors refer to Aniston as the “Babe Eternal” on this cover, a label over which no one has any beef. Take one glance at another aspect of the cover image, however, and you’ll likely join the many readers who did the same, shook their heads and asked… … what the actual f-ck?!? In short, Aniston’s skin has very clearly been darkened for this cover shoot. She’s nearly unrecognizable. As you can see below, Aniston is wearing a black DKNY bra in this photo, along with a Lalaounis necklace and Elizabeth Locke, John Hardy and Reinstein Ross bracelets. But it’s the airbrushing that has received a majority of the attention because, we mean… just look at this: Wrote InStyle on Instagram, as a caption to this snapshot: “Jennifer Aniston has been a beacon of American glamour for the past 25 years, and now she’s stretching her boundaries. “In a series of five newsstand covers (just try to choose a favorite), she channels iconic beauty looks from the ‘60s and ‘70s.” That may all be true, but it hasn’t stopped many folks from around the Internet from wondering: Why does Aniston look African-American?!? “Beautiful cover, but why is she ten shades darker than she really is,” one person questioned, while another stated simply: “I don’t remember her being this dark.” Neither do we. To be clear, most complaints were directed not at Aniston, who didn’t go blackface or anything here. But instead at the people behind the scenes at InStyle. “I get that these covers are supposed to be channeling the glamour of yesteryear but that ‘glamour’ routinely marginalized women of color for white women (whether made tan or otherwise),” wrote Instagram user Patricia Birch astutely, adding: “Seeing Jennifer Aniston several shades darker than normal reminds me of that legacy. “In 2019, if you want a brown skinned woman on your cover, put a brown-skinned woman on your cover.” For comparison’s sake, here is another recent snapshot of Aniston on this same magazine’s cover: Aware of the backlash, a publicist for InStyle told NBC News: “This one shot in particular was inspired by Veruschka,” a German model who was popular during the 1960s. The publication then sent NBC News three images of Veruschka appearing heavily tanned, which they said inspired the photo of Aniston in question. Again, this also may be true. But we’re pretty sure you can’t blame the average reader for not being aware that Veruschka was the inspiration for a photo of Jennifer Aniston on the cover of InStyle. Do better, editors.

As you’ve no doubt heard by now, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have broken up after less than a year of marriage. Shortly after news of the split went public, fans were surprised to see photos of Miley making out with Kaitlynn Carter , the former “wife” of professional famous guy Brody Jenner. (Though they claimed to have gotten hitched, Brody and Kaitlynn later admitted that their marriage was never legal.) At the time, it was thought to be a tabloid-baiting fling — the kind of shock value publicity stunt that used to be Miley’s stock-and-trade. But now, it looks as though Miley and Kaitlynn are actually dating . Kaitlynn has met Miley’s mom ; the two of them have been spotted on what appear to be romantic date nights … it’s a whole thing. The situation has raised questions about the timeline of Miley and Kaitlynn’s romance. They both claim they held off on hooking up until their respective marriages were over. But Brody’s bestie Spencer Pratt says that’s not the case. In a new interview with Cosmo , Spencer calls Kaitlynn out for comments she made on recent episodes of The Hills , insisting that her description of her “open relationship” with Brody is total BS: “It’s tough for me to listen to Kaitlynn complain about people talking about her allegedly open relationship with Brody when we know she had a thing going with Miley,” he told the magazine. “She already had something going on with her when these scenes were filming—maybe not physically, but definitely emotionally.” Pratt says he has no issue with Carter’s (alleged) infidelity, he just wishes that as a new cast member, she would be a bit more upfront with the show’s audience: “No one’s judging you for whatever it is you and Brody do when he’s not sleeping in his car,” he continued. “We just don’t want people to lie about their lives. Maybe you shouldn’t have gone on television,” Pratt added. “It’s called a reality show, hon. And the reality is that Brody’s been talking about your sex life on his podcast for years.” Kaitlynn said her castmates lacked “common decency” in a recent episode, a statement that Pratt find laughable. “I would love to know Liam Hemsworth’s thought on Kaitlynn’s recent display of ‘common decency,'” Spencer prattled on. “You know what I call ‘common decency?’ Getting it on at your Italian villa and not in front of the paparazzi.” Of course, Kaitlynn split from Brody well before Miley and Liam ended their relationship. So if she was cheating on her “husband,” it stands to reason that Miley was, too. For his part, Brody has defended both Kaitlynn and her relationship with Miley: “There is far too much negativity being directed at someone who I love and care about very much,” he wrote on Instagram. “I feel the need to set the story straight. Kaitlynn and I have been best friends for 6 years, and we continue to be,” Jenner continued. “We, like many others before us and many after us, grew in different directions over those same 6 years.” Seems to us that if Brody has no problem with Kaitlynn’s actions, Spencer shouldn’t either. Of course, dude is a reality TV vet, and he has a keen sense of the type of drama that keeps an audience engaged. View Slideshow: Miley Cyrus Risks Catastrophic Nip-Slip on Saturday Night Live
Amber Portwood's relationship with Andrew Glennon ended in horrific fashion back in July. Like, there was an arrest and a no contact order and everything. There's a custody battle going on for their son, James, and Amber's criminal case isn't done yet, so there's still a lot going on. But now, Andrew is giving a little more insight into what happened leading up to their breakup. And it's real, real ugly … 1. What a Nightmare Can you believe that it’s barely been two years since Andrew Glennon first made the gigantic, life-altering mistake of getting with Amber Portwood? 2. A Real Roller Coaster A whole lot has happened in those two years — she got pregnant right away, so they welcomed their son, James, in May of last year, and there was some talk of getting married and possibly even moving to Andrew’s hometown of Malibu. 3. Here We Go But of course all those plans changed back in July when Amber allegedly assaulted Andrew … while he was holding James. 4. Ugh The whole dumb thing began because Amber got mad when traffic kept them from going to see some fireworks on the Fourth of July, and instead of finding another route or another place to watch fireworks or literally anything else, she decided to beat Andrew with a shoe. 5. Gross She admitted to that part, although she treated it like no big deal. Meanwhile, police apparently have photos of bruises and scratches on Andrew’s neck and shoulder from that beating. 6. Good Move After that, Andrew decided to leave Amber alone for a while. He said that he took James and they drove around for a few hours, but when they came home, she was still furious. View Slideshow
Though beloved Dog’s Most Wanted star Beth Chapman passed away this summer, she still appears on TV alongside her husband. As viewers saw in the season premiere, Beth’s strong personality had not waned in the slightest even in her final weeks and months. Even when she and Duane came into conflict, they quickly and affectionately found a resolution. In that way, Beth lives on. On the season premiere of Dog’s Most Wanted , the group had a run of bad luck while tracking down a fugitive in Hawaii. “Let’s call it off,” Duane told the crew. “It’s getting dark so here’s the deal” “The son comes once in a while, well, once in a while was today,” he acknowledged. “So, if we catch the dad,” he reasoned. “We may trade the dad for the son.” Beth made it clear that she did not think much of that plan, uttering a very disapproving “Wow!” Duane did not initially seem to register how strongly Beth felt about this. “Yeah,” he told his wife. “I’ll let you go. You find your kid.” Beth did not agree to that plan. “What do you mean? He’s got five warrants,” she exclaimed. “I don’t think you can do that.” Trade-offs are rarely a good idea, even if they look dramatic in movies. “OK, well I’ll lie to him all right?” Duane said, then jokingly adding: “Like you do to me.” You may have guessed this already, but that did not sooth Beth’s mood. Kind of the opposite. Duane realized what he had said and went about apologizing to his beloved wife. He gave her a tender kiss and opted for the entire group to call it a night. As always, Beth was his first priority. Viewers are going to see a lot of that this season — Beth’s final season. Back in July, just weeks after Beth’s tragic passing, Duane spoke about how vital her role was on the show. “My wife is, was, and always will be the heart and soul of Dog’s Most Wanted ,” he affirmed in a statement. This was when the new season’s premiere date was first announced. “Beth wanted nothing more than for the show to go on,” he stated. “And I am so proud of the legacy that she left behind.” “She lived and died for this show,” Duane noted. “And she would be so proud of how hard we worked bringing these criminals to justice.” The premiere featured a heated moment at a gas station as multiple members of Duane’s crew jumped on a car Beth described the move as a rookie mistake, because jumping on a car will get you injured while doing little but panicking the driver. She was grateful that there were no apparent serious injuries. Beth explained that, had they not jumped on the car in a vain effort to restrain it, Beth herself could have rammed the vehicle with her own. That, she explained, would have had much more impact upon the fugitive’s ability to flee. The argument that ensued among the crew was a natural result of high tensions, adrenaline, and a lot of strong personalities in one place. Beth’s personality continues to shine through in these episodes, and one imagines that she will do so all season. And while the show sometimes appears to be a PSA about how 1800s bounty hunting laws should be repealed or at least updated, it’s fun to keep up with the chapmans. Viewers hope that they will receive closure from seeing more of Beth. Others simply cannot handle watching the woman whose death they have been grieving for months.

It became frustrating because they’d use products that weren’t compatible with her hair. In an interview with Allure she said, “Through my time in Hollywood, I have been in a thousand different situations where the people who work in glam just had no idea how to deal with textured hair. I would get on set and they’d be like, ‘Why doesn’t your hair look like it did in the picture?’ Meanwhile, I just showed up like I was told to, with clean hair fresh from the shower.” This experience birthed Flawless by Gabrielle Union . The affordable collection includes a hair repair masque, moisturizing conditioner, blow-dry hair cream, moisturizing shampoo, heat protecting hair spray, treatment oil, and much more.

DMX was in Maine for a concert at Rock Row in Westbrook on Saturday. He told them he was blessed to have 15 children and wanted the family to be blessed as well. “I was actually having a really hard time picking out shoes. I could not figure out which ones I wanted and then we went in that store and I found the shoes that I wanted and we just happened to go pay for them and it happened.” Grace Firley said. “They’re technically his shoes. That’s what I’m going to say. I have DMX’s shoes.” The outlet adds that X copped sneakers for Grace and her sister, who attends college in Portland. Way to go, DMX. — Photo: WENN
