Travis Scott: PISSED That Kylie Jenner Is Banging Drake!

If you could only use one descriptive phrase to encapsulate Kylie Jenner, it would likely be something along the lines of “rich af.” But if the person in charge of doling out opportunities in this bizarre hypothetical scenario offered you a second crack at it, you might be inclined to describe Kylie using the word that her family and friends often employ in their praise for the 22-year-old cosmetice mogul — ambitious. Kylie is a born go-getter, and because her ambition is paired with the most fortuitous circumstances a person can be born into, that mentality has resulted in some major achievements. And it seems Kylie has decided the approach that’s served her so well in her business ventures should also be applied to her love life. In case you haven’t noticed, Stormi’s mom is constantly upgrading. She has an eye for rappers, and if you thought she would content herself with a one-(minor)-hit-wonder like Tyga, then you don’t know Kylie. First, Kylie upgraded to Travis Scott, and for a while, it looked as though those two were really in it for the long haul. Kylie and Travis welcomed a child together , and for the last several months of their relationship, rumors of a secret engagement seemed to circulate non-stop. But then — something happened. Was Travis really caught cheating , as so many tabloid headlines have claimed? It might be a while before we know for sure, but in the meantime, it’s becoming more and more clear that Kylie has upgraded yet again. Yes, by now you’ve probably heard the rumors that Kylie is dating Drake . If you’re like us, you probably dismissed the relationship as a mere media fabrication at first. But believe it or not, it looks like Kylie and Drake are actually boning — and not surprisingly, Travis is very pissed about it. “He’s not happy about the budding romance at all,” a source close to the situation tells In Touch Weekly . Apparently, Travis doesn’t know much about the budding romance, as Kylie and Drake have yet to confirm that they’re hooking up. But Mr. Scott has heard the same rumors as the rest of us — and he’s not happy about them. According to witness, Drizzy and Kylizzle “spent a lot of time talking with one another” at a recent event. “They seemed to be enjoying each other’s company,” the onlooker adds. “They were joking around, and Kylie was laughing. There seemed to be an attraction there.” A different source tells People magazine that Kylie and Drake are more than friends, and are interested in each other “romantically.” As for her feelings toward Travis, Kylie recently assured fans that she and the “Sicko Mode” rapper split on good terms. “Travis and I are on great terms, and our main focus right now is Stormi!!” she tweeted on October 3. “Our friendship and our daughter is priority.” However, a source claims there’s major bad blood between Stormi’s parents: “Kylie has serious issues. She has her own life and career and child and can’t watch over him,” an insider tells In Touch . “She is the billionaire megastar, and she feels so insecure about herself because of her relationship. They’ve had major trust issues from the start.” Yes, even billionaires can feel insecure if they spend enough time with the right f–k boy.

Whitney’s BFF Robyn Crawford Breaks Silence on Love Affair!

Source: Larry Busacca / Getty There has been speculation for years about the relationship between Whitney Houston and best friend Robyn Crawford. Well, Robyn is putting an end to all of the rumors in her new memoir, titled, “ A Song For You: My Life with Whitney Houston .” In the memoir, she speaks of the intimate side of their relationship. Check out an excerpt from the book below.   According to People Magazine, Crawford wrote in the book: From the moment Crawford, then 19, first saw Whitney (then almost 17) in 1980 when they were both counselors at an East Orange, New Jersey summer camp, she told her, “I’m going to look out for you.” And that’s exactly what she did for the next two decades as Whitney became a global superstar. “We wanted to be together,” says Crawford, “and that meant just us.” Whitney ended the physical part of their relationship early on, soon after she signed a record deal with Clive Davis at Arista. The singer broke the news by giving Crawford a gift of a slate blue Bible one day in 1982. “She said we shouldn’t be physical anymore,” writes Crawford, “because it would make our journey even more difficult.” “She said if people find out about us, they would use this against us,” says Crawford, “and back in the ’80s that’s how it felt.” And so, she says, “I kept it safe. I found comfort in my silence.” There was also pressure from Whitney’s family, including her mother gospel singer Cissy Houston. “Whitney told me her mother said it wasn’t natural for two women to be that close,” says Crawford, “but we were that close.” Their closeness spawned relentless speculation about Whitney’s sexuality for many years. “We never talked about labels, like lesbian or gay,” writes Crawford. “We just lived our lives and I hoped it could go on that way forever.” Crawford went on to say, “Whitney knows I loved her and I know she loved me,” says Crawford. “We really meant everything to each other. We vowed to stand by each other.”   Crawford is now a fitness trainer and lives with her partner, talent agency executive Lisa Hintlemann, with whom she adopted two children. Your Thoughts?

TMZ is reporting that the Rap bombshell is flexing her legal muscle against ex or soon to be ex make up artist. Last month Akil McCoy took to social media to make sure the Houston native put some respeck on his face game.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Premiere: All Teresa, All the Time

It seems almost impossible to remember at this point, but Teresa Giudice was once in prison. It’s true! She was behind bars for admitting to her role in a bankruptcy scheme and her future on The Real Housewives of New Jersey was in doubt. Now, however? She isn’t merely back on the show – this ex-convict and her family are the show! This was made very clear on Wednesday night’s Season 10 premiere. When this opening episode was filmed, Joe Giudice had a week remaining of his 41-month prison sentence for bank, wire and mail fraud. Bravo cameras therefore captured the heartbreaking and bittersweet moments among his wife and four daughters, as well as the cruel things that were being said about these same folks behind their backs. In the end, everything came back to the Giudices, Joe’s situation in particular. Just consider the following scene: We had  Teresa, Gia, Gabriella, Milania and Audriana cooking dinner with Teresa’s dad, Giacinto, and discussing Gia’s decision to attend Rutgers University in the fall. The 18-year old said she wanted to be an attorney. Milania then accused Gia of copying her desired profession, but everyone laughed because they had never heard Milania express interest in law before. “I’ve been saying I want to be a lawyer for a while because it gets me so mad that our dad is in jail and might be getting deported,” Milania said, as Gia added: “Yeah, but I mean, he’s fighting the battle.” As a very quick refresher: Joe was ordered by a judge to be deported in the fall of 2018 because he broke federal law as a non-U.S. citizen. He is appealing the ruling, but most reside in Italy while he does so… and no matter what Teresa says here, she’s totally gonna divorce him . “I just don’t know how the whole thing’s gonna go,” Teresa said sadly on the premiere. It’s hard to feel badly for Teresa or Joe because they’re entitled criminals who suck on, like, every level. But there are four young girls involved here, as Gia said on the premiere that she’d end her relationship with her father if he refused to fight the deportation. “I’m going to prom, I’m going to graduation, I’m going to college. Those are three big things I want my father here for,” she added, but Milania interjected: “No one cares.” The sisters then argued some more before Milania simply walked away. Teresa later opened up to her brother, Joe Gorga, saying: “I hate that my kids have to go through all this. Like, he’s done his time! And now, I’m fighting to keep him in the country.” Joe then conferred with wife Melissa about this conversation and cited the “cheating allegations” that are also following Teresa around. Joe claims Teresa told him she and the younger man with whom she was photographed several months ago are mere friends. “Friends it is,” Melissa reiterated. “I just feel like everything that’s gone on in her life always gets in the way of our relationship. It is what it is. I’m not one to hold a grudge.” In a confessional, Melissa explained there were “a lot of pictures out there, but if Teresa says she is not cheating then I go with what my family says.” She added: “There was a lot of tension between Teresa and I, but she called me and apologized.” Other Housewives also touched on this chatter. “There’s tons of cheating rumors going around about Teresa. There’s photos of her with some 20-something-year-old guy,” Margaret Josephs told the camera. “If she’s stepping out on Joe, who can blame her? He’s about to get deported, and he’s been gone for three years. She’s been through enough. “It doesn’t matter to me if the rumors about Teresa are true or not. What goes on behind closed doors is frankly none of my business.” ( Editor’s Note : We can blame her! She’s still married!) In another scene, Jackie Goldschneider, came across a video Teresa posted to Instagram of Jennifer Aydin doing her best impression of Jackie. It was far from flattering. “Teresa, to me, she’s broken,” Jackie fumed to the ladies. “She should be home with her children instead of sitting in a restaurant and making fun of me.” Melissa attemped to defend Teresa by saying she had “a lot going on” and wasn’t “thinking about what she’s doing,” but Jackie felt that was “such an easy excuse.” Jackie also said she believed that Teresa cheated on Joe. ( Editor’s Note II : Joe also believes this .) Later on, Dolores stopped by Teresa’s place and was given an update on Joe’s standing with prison and ICE. Teresa focused on the financial aspects of the process at first, but then elaborated as follows: “This appeal is costing me so much money, but I don’t care. I’ll spend the money. I don’t care. And then at least I’ll know I did everything I could.” Dolores left with the impression, however, that Teresa was over her husband and only doing this for her kids, namely Gia. Finally, the premiere ended the way nearly all Real Housewives episode end: With tension between the co-stars. Dolores told Teresa that she spoke to Margaret after Margaret’s dinner with Jackie and told her what Jackie said about the cheating rumors. Teresa was mightly peeved over it. “F-ck Jackie,” she replied. Meanwhile, Teresa went off to Melissa about the rumors she felt Jackie was continuing to perpetuate. And when she saw Jennifer had walked away from Jackie, Teresa swooped in to confront her. Jackie claimed someone had asked her a question about Teresa, but Teresa didn’t want to hear it. “Just keep my name out of your mouth?” she asked, as Jackie asked the same from Teresa. The two agreed to not talk about each other, yet Melissa said she knew the truce wouldn’t last. The episode wrapped up with Joe’s release from prison. He called Teresa from what is believed to be the ICE facility. “Everything is like lock down over here,” he said, concluding: “I’m telling you, it’s bad. My time is done, and I’m wasting my life away in this freaking crap. I don’t know what could happen.” “I could just freaking go nuts!” View Slideshow: Teresa Giudice vs. Joe Giudice: The Most Shocking Interview Reveals!

Jana Duggar Gets Slammed by Fans: Your Brother Hates Women!

The Duggar family apparently feels like Josh Duggar’s molestation scandal has blown over, folks, because Jed Duggar is running for office . Despite that being a deeply controversial move, his big sister Jana gave him a shout-out and a glowing endorsement. Now, fans are upset with Jana for endorsing someone with upsetting, oppressive platforms like Jed’s. “It was an honor to go to the Arkansas State Capitol today,” Jana’s Instagram post begins. She got “to watch my brother @jed_duggar file as a candidate for House District 89.” “I’m so proud of the man he is,” she gushes. “And,” Jana concludes, “the heart he has for serving the community of Springdale!” “I hope he doesn’t forget that humans, especially women, have rights,” one commenter begins. The comment continues: “Women have the right to many things and he better not take any of it away from them.” “Don’t punch your religious values on people,” the comment concludes. “We don’t want it.” “No offense he’s not going to win,” another follower cautions. “Janna has a better shot at winning than this guy.” “Oh yeah, because he totally understands separation of church and state,” another commenter derides. The follower observes; “He’s been raised to believe nobody other than Christian men have rights.” “And he has no life experience,” that same commenter concludes. Clearly, Jed’s run for office is a disappointment to many fans, and they don’t love Jana endorsing his move. “I’m a Conservative. Pro-Life. Pro Second Amendment. Pro Religious Liberty,” Jed announced alongside his candidacy. The chilling litany of his agenda was enough to alarm plenty of people, even though it is no surprise. He also wrote that he plans to “Combat the Opioid Crisis. Lower Taxes. More Jobs & Growth. Strong Economy.” Jed being 20 years old and lacking any life experience or opinions of his own could really hamper him in any political race. “I’m Jed Duggar. I have grown up in the Springdale area all my life,” he wrote on Instagram. Jed continued: “And as a local small-business owner, I understand the important issues facing the residents and businesses of District 89.” Yes, we’re sure that Jed can relate to all of the other small business owners whose daddies gave them businesses instead of a college education. Clearly, he is hoping that others will overlook his lack of qualifications or experience and simply side with his abhorrent views on human rights. “Northwest Arkansas is the economic engine of our state,” Jed continued. He wrote: our local jobs and state economy depend on elected officials that take a common-sense, business approach to legislative reforms.” “I will fight for sound fiscal policies and tax relief for all Arkansans,” he pledged. It sounds like Jim Bob is angling for a tax break for himself and his fellow millionaires. “I will unequivocally advocate for conservative values,” Jed warned. “I am a Christian and I will stand up for religious liberty,” he emphasized. Religious liberty is a favored euphemism meaning special rights for conservative Christians. At times, laws passed on these grounds directly oppose the rights and beliefs of religious minorities. “:I am pro-life and I will be an advocate for the unborn,” Jed’s grim announcement continued. He continued: “And I will always defend our Second Amendment.” In other words, he’s happy to see people forced to give birth, but once they’re born, it’s basically fine if they die in a hail of bullets. “With your support,” Jed tells his followers. “I will be a strong, conservative voice in Little Rock for District 89.” Some Duggar fans have noted that Jed’s campaign seems to link his address to an apartment. It wouldn’t normally be shocking for a 20-year-old to live on his own, but most 20-year-olds aren’t members of repressive cults. Jim Bob lets his children move out of the house only when married. This seems like a curious exception. Fans believe that Jim Bob wants to make Jed look independent. Who’s going to vote for a man who’s forbidden from having an orgasm? Of course Jana endorsed Jed. Not only did she likely have no choice in the matter, but he’s her brother! The reason that fans were upset is that Jed’s platform just … sucks. The other reason is that Jana endorsing him conflicts with the image of Jana that fans have constructed in their minds. If Jana is really a rebel against the horrible beliefs of her family, she’s really good at hiding it.

Kailyn Lowry to Lauren Comeau: You Owe Me an Apology!

Kailyn Lowry is all about trying to make peace these days. Under certain conditions, that is. Last week, for example, Lowry said she’d love to sit down and talk to Jenelle Evans in the wake of the latter’s confirmed plans to divorce David Eason. This announcement came as a pretty huge shock to fans of the Teen Mom franchise, considering the bitter rivalry that has existed between Lowry and Evans for years. But Lowry expressed sympathy to Evans over all she has gone through with awful husband David Eason and all she will likely through over the next several months of negotiations. (Jenelle just obtained a restraining order against Eason and has outlined various ways in which he threatened her .) Speaking to In Touch Weekly not long after Jenelle told fans of her marital split, Lowry said that she “wishes [Evans] the best” going forward and, well… that was it. Good for her, right? Now, Lowry has touched on the subject of another long-time foe: ex-husband Javi Marroquin’s fiancee, Lauren Comeau. A follower asked Kailyn if she would entertain the possibility of having Comeau as a guest on her podcast, Coffee Convos, Lowry said, yes, sure, she was open to this appearance… … on one condition. “As soon as she’s ready to come talk to me woman to woman and apologize, she’s welcome anytime,” Lowry said about Comeau. Not exactly as mature a response as Kailyn offered when it came to Jenelle, huh? This may be due to the fact that Lowry and Comeau have quite the personal history, sharing a baby daddy, for starters, along with a kind of ugly past. On the latest Teen Mom 2 reunion special, for example, Marroquin opened up about why Lowry and Lauren aren’t on the best of terms. “Kail went through my phone, Lauren called her a twat,” he said on air, to which Lowry quickly added: “Several times in one paragraph.” In a different scene, while sitting down with Jo Rivera’s wife, Vee, Kailyn further explained why she will not be friends with Lauren, the way she is close to Vee.  “I’m saying I will not be friends with her, I’m telling you, this isn’t a ‘we’ll see,'” Lowry said  bluntly. “I will be cordial with each other because we have children that are siblings.” In January of this year, meanwhile, Javi spoke to OK Magazine about Lauren and Kailyn’s rocky relationship and how he tries to navigate the tension between his ex and his current. At the time of this tabloid interview, Javi revealed that the two ladies still haven’t really spoken to each other, but we’re taking “baby steps” to make things better. It probably didn’t help when Lowry recently said Javi tried to cheat on Lauren with… her . Kailyn was married to Javi for nearly four years before ending their marriage in 2016. They split custody of son Lincoln and have overcome some awful times themselves to now be on strong terms. As for Lauren and Kailyn? You’d maybe think they’d be a little closer, simply because they have one huge thing in common: Marroquin has screwed each one over by screwing someone else behind their backs .

Angelina Jolie Opens Up on Brad Pitt Split: He’s Still Holding Me Back!

It’s been almost three years since Angelina Jolie separated from Brad Pitt following an incident aboard a private jet that remains shrouded in mystery. At first, both parties remained firmly tight-lipped about both their marriage and their divorce, but these days the actors make the occasional cryptic reference to their former lives and the way things have changed since their split. Brad was the first to break his silence. Thanks to a series of candid interviews, we now know, for example, that Pitt is sober , having reevaluated his use of intoxicants after the separation. Angie kept a lid on things a bit longer, which makes sense. No one ever accused her of instigating the alleged plane altercation, so she likely didn’t feel the need to explain anything. But Angie has a new movie to promote, and she’s been in the business long enough to know exactly what the people want. And so, she gave one of the most candid interviews of her career to Harper’s Bazaar this week. Jolie revealed that years after the split, she finally feels “the blood returning to [her] body,” a profound atatement about the tremendous toll the divorce has taken on her. “My children know my true self, and they have helped me to find it again and to embrace it. They have been through a lot. I learn from their strength,” she added. She went on to say that her choices with regard to where she settles down are currently limited by her husband’s decisions. “I would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18. Right now I’m having to base where their father chooses to live,” she told the magazine. Proving once again that celebrity breakups are very, very different from civilian splits, Angie went on to bemoan the fact that her duties as a single parent prevent her from spending time at the Cambodian jungle home she built before she met Brad. “We got a call the other day informing us that chipmunks have moved into the house,” she griped. “They asked if we should remove them, and Vivienne was very clear that we needed to cover the wires and let them stay.” Yes, when you’re rich enough you can leave the First World and still have First World problems. We joke about Angie’s incredible wealth, but the real takeaway here is that she’s a devoted mom, who’s endured a very difficult three yeats. Jolie’s eldest son, Maddox, went off to college in South Korea this fall, and while we’re sure the separation is painful, she’s that much closer to being able to live wherever she wants.

Amy Roloff Just Bought a New House, You Guys!

Mark off another major milestone for Amy Roloff. The Little People, Big World star has been undergoing one giant change after another over the past several weeks, from the sublime (an engagement!) to the tragic (the death of her mother). So…  what now? Roloff has purchased a new home. Those who have been following the reality star’s life over the past year or so must be familiar with how she sold a parcel of her land on her family’s farm to her ex-husband, Matt. Ever since, Amy has been searching for a house away from the farm in which to settle down. She’s been keeping social media followers well apprised of this journey, admitting that she was a bit nervous because she hasn’t lived on a different piece of property in decades. But now Radar Online can confirm that Roloff has bought a residence in Hillsboro, Oregon; she closed the deal on September 27 and she paid $588,500 for the home. It’s located 15 minutes away from the farm, an insider confirms, and sits on .16 acres. According to Zillow, meanwhile, the average home price in this town is $379,200, meaning Amy likely purchased herself a pretty nice place. Also of note? Fiance Chris Marek helped Amy throughout the process, which does make a lot of sense, consdering he makes a living in the real estate industry. What else do we know about the home, courtesy of this Radar report? It boasts five bedrooms — very important when kids and grandkids, we’re sure, will often be invited over to stay — and four bathrooms and it takes up an area of 3,767 square feet. In September, Amy and Marek announced they had gotten engaged after three years of dating. Just a short while later, sadly, Amy’s mother died at the age of 86 after a lengthy battle with an illness related to a bone infection. Roloff has been paying her tribute on Instagram in the weeks since, most recently writing of her beloved late parent: Went to my Mon’s gravesite today. To feel her presence, talk w/ her, pray and be thankful for what her life gave to me. Can hardly believe that it’s been one month since my Mom’s passing and one week since her memorial. Still feels like just yesterday. Sometimes you just don’t feel or want to move on but you must. On top of all this personal news, Amy is set to welcome TWO new grandchildren in the very near future. Daughter-in-law Tori is due with a son any week now, while daughter-in-law Audrey is due in early January. Between these births AND a wedding to plan AND a move to make, we just hope Amy finds the time to count her blessings and to realize her amazing good fortune. We have no doubt that she will.

Kourtney Kardashian Shows Off Stretch Marks: Everybody Has Them!

Late this summer, Kourtney Kardashian flaunted her stretch marks on social media, turning heads and earning praise. Kourt notices that her followers approved, and came up with a plan. Now, she’s showing off her “tiger stripes” again, and this time, it’s for a very savvy purpose. Kourtney Kardashian posted this mouth-watering photo to Instagram. Notably, she didn’t share it on her personal Instagram — but on her Poosh side account. While it’s hard to make out in the photo, Kourt does actually have stretch marks. The hot bikini pic was accompanied by a message. “Stretch marks: we’ve all got them,” the caption begins. The Poosh caption then asks: “Looking to minimize the appearance of yours?” Naturally, Poosh being her lifestyle brand and all, the caption then directs followers to click a link to learn how. Most models use their perfections to sell products, so it’s a bit of a change for Kourtney to use her “flaws.” There are a number of modes of thinking about stretch marks. The first is that they are unsightly, and though they can arise from a growth spurt, pregnancy, or exercise, are associated with unwanted weight gain. People of this line of thinking want to do their best to prevent stretch marks from appearing in the first place. When they do get stretch marks, they want to try whatever solutions — Poosh or otherwise — that will mask these marks. Another line of thinking, of course, is that Kourtney and anyone else shouldn’t want to hide these marks. They are, after all, part of your body. Nobody picks their flesh prison. Since there is nothing unhealthy about stretch marks, many feel that the stigma should end. Along with that stigma, people should therefore lose the desire to hide them, as they’re just part of one’s skin. However, both of these diametrically opposed viewpoints kind of … miss the point. Yes, of course there shouldn’t be any stigma about stretch marks. it’s just something that happens to human skin. But that doesn’t mean that Kourtney, or people who take advice from Poosh, are doing anything wrong. Some people embrace their marks while others want to minimize them. Everybody gets to control what they do to their own meatsuit. Kourtney is very clearly not shaming anyone who has stretch marks with this ad. When last she shared her marks, she wrote: “I love my little stripes.” Also, the ad both affirms that everyone has them and then asks if the reader is looking for a change. That’s it. If you’re not looking to change your looks, then the ad is not saying anything about you. That’s an improvement over a lot of beauty ads. Kourtney turned 40 this past April. Compared to some of her siblings, she’s getting into the “personal brand” business a little late. Sure, she hada  brand, but she wasn’t profiting from it as aggressively as Kim or Kylie. Kim’s array of products range from makeup to a mobile game, and have led her to have a net worth of a third of a billion dollars. Kylie Cosmetics, of course, is worth a full billion. Kylie became a mother and a billionaire at a shockingly young age. Now that Kourtney’s dipping her toes into the world, her fans hope that Poosh will do something similar for her. Only time will tell. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Playboy Cover: Revealed, Very Busty!
