Olympians Say Winter Athletes Are Smashing Out Of Control In Olympic Village

Posted on February 17, 2018 by Benny Hollywood

Athletes Have “A Lot Of Sex” In Olympic Village As you can imagine, Olympic athletes are incredibly focused and super stressed while staying in Olympic Village awaiting their competition. However, once they’re done competing — for win or for loss — it. is. ON. According to a report from People , many athletes report that once the stress of competing in the biggest event of their lives, Olympic athletes turn into major party animals, and many of them take the opportunity to hook up with as many other folks at the peak of their physical form while they have the chance. For one, all the athletes stay in an Olympians-only compound, with endless supplies of food, drinks, and cases and cases of condoms : “There’s a lot of sex going on,” two-time gold medaling soccer player Hope Solo told ESPN. Swimmer Ryan Lochte, who has six gold medals over four Olympics, put the exact amount at “70 percent to 75 percent of Olympians.” “It’s like the first day of college,” water polo player Tony Azevedo said of those first few days all together in the athlete village. “You’re nervous, super excited. Everyone’s meeting people and trying to hook up with someone.” It’s “a pretty wild scene, the biggest melting pot you’ve been in,” said swimmer Eric Shanteau. To accommodate, officials provide tens of thousands of condoms, such as 450,000 condoms for the Rio Games, USA Today reported. Hey, if that’s how they choose to get down, they’ve definitely earned it. Getty Continue reading →

Guess Who’s Comin’ To Daughter? Lionel Richie Still Not Fond Of Sophia And Scott Disick’s Creepy Coupledom

Posted on February 17, 2018 by Benny Hollywood

Image via Getty Lionel Richie Still Not Comfortable With Sophia Dating Disick Lionel Richie is a lot more docile than a lot of men. Lot of guys would be ready to wear Scott Disick’s 34-year-old azz OUT if he was dating their teenage daughter, but alas… That said, according to DailyMail , the pop icon is still rather unsettled about his daughter’s choice in men, but he’s going to let her do her: ‘It’s just a phase and I’m going to stand real still in the corner, get me a good drink and not make too much noise.’ The disturbed dad chalks up his angst to good ol’ fashioned karma: ‘Now I know what my parents meant when I came through the door with my Afro and my girlfriend and said “Dad, I’m in love,” he said. The singer went on: ‘My daughter is getting me back for my Afro days! She’s 19. When you’re 19 you know everything,’ he offered, tongue planted firmly in-cheek. Good luck. That Disick seems like a real piece of s#!t. Continue reading →

Retweet This, Comrade: Nicki Minaj, Trevor Noah, Donald Trump And More Engaged With Russian Twitter Bots

Posted on February 16, 2018 by Benny Hollywood

Image via Getty Celebs Interacted With Russian Social Media Sites Earlier we reported on the indictment of 13 Russians as a result of Robert Mueller’s investigation into election tampering back in 2016. Based on the indictment paperwork, several social media outlets have been outed as Russian propaganda, and many of the most famous Americans citizens unknowingly helped their reach. For example, take this tweet that Nicki Minaj sent the day the harrowing live-stream murders happened in Cleveland: The video u posted is so disturbing. Be safe in CLEVELAND today everyone. He just killed this old man live on social media. Jesus have mercy https://t.co/mYmpPvBBXl — NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) April 16, 2017 Or Donald Trump replying to some of that wet and sloppy boot-licking that he enjoys so much: So nice, thank you! https://t.co/Cg4dzHhbrv — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 20, 2017 According to NBC , these two were FAR from the only celebrities to get caught up by the Ruskis, they have an EXTENSIVE list of influential tweeters who unwittingly (in Trump’s case, he probably knew they were Russian, but we digress) engaged in one form or another (reply, retweet, like) with Russian propaganda pages: Jake Tapper (CNN) Sarah Silverman Trevor Noah Ann Coulter Sean Hannity Donald Trump Jr. The list goes on and on and on. Trump haters engaged usually to push back against a claim, while MAGA brand mayo jars engaged to show support or as evidence of their misguided beliefs. We’ve all gotta be more conscious of which things we let get us riled up online. You might just be aiding the enemy. Continue reading →

Under The Weather Wendy Williams Explains Why She Took The Week Off After Being Photo’d With Her Hubby — Arguing?

Posted on February 15, 2018 by Benny Hollywood

Rick Davis / Splash News Wendy Williams Says She Doesn’t Even Feel That Bad But Decided To Play It Safe Earlier this week, reps for Wendy Williams announced she had to cancel her Wednesday show due to “flu season” symptoms before reps revealed she decided to take off the remainder of the week. Wendy took to Instagram to explain: “It’s not the flu yet but I feel flu-ish. It’s not a five on a scale of one to five. It’s not even a four. I do go to the doctors today to find out exactly what it is. I feel awful. I had to be talked out of going to work today and taking off a few days to get myself together. I have not taken off since we started this show.” We’re not sure whether Wendy decided to explain herself because of the video of her looking a little wobbly, or if it was just the “flu season” reports OR it could have been because RadarOnline published photos of her and her husband Kevin Hunter out in public hours after her cancellation was announced. The outlet claims Wendy and her hubby looked to be arguing in some of those photos but it was difficult for us to tell. If you were her would you even bother with this much explaining?
