Corey and Miranda Simms: We Are NOT Getting Divorced!

Corey Simms and Leah Messer didn’t work out, as you know if you watch Teen Mom 2 online , but he and Miranda Patterson are on solid ground. Despite rumors of a Corey and Miranda Simms divorce that were triggered by social media comments earlier this month, they’re fine.  Seriously. Like Chelsea Houska and Cole DeBoer, they are one of the rare Teen Mom couples you don’t have to worry about lately. Miranda and Corey were recently caught up in controversy after a Facebook account attributed to him referred to being a “single” dad. Luckily, it’s not true, and Miranda Simms took to Twitter to explain. “That most definitely is a Fake Facebook,” Miranda told her fans. “Corey and I have a private FB for only family & close friends!” In a second tweet days later, Miranda added, “Those rumors def aren’t true! We actually celebrated 3 years of marriage yesterday.” Bottom line: Whatever beef they have with Leah is one thing, and we likely haven’t seen the end of that, but as a couple, they’re golden. Miranda Simms Calls Leah Messer Out: I’m So Good To Your Girls! Almost lost in the shuffle amid Leah’s non-stop drama is the fact that Corey and Miranda became parents themselves fairly recently. Besides the twin girls he shares with Leah Messer, the couple are the parents of a daughter Remi, who just celebrated her first birthday. Don’t expect to see much of her on MTV going forward, though. Insiders say Corey was not a fan of the ongoing drama surrounding Messer and her alleged drug use playing out as it did on the air. “[Corey Simms] feels MTV did him dirty,” a friend explained. How so? Simms believed producers “let Messer off easy.” “He thinks they had the perfect opportunity to show [ Teen Mom 2] viewers, ‘This is what happens when you get on drugs, this is reality.'” “Instead, they made it seem like Corey was constantly attacking Leah for no reason,” the source claimed, and he scaled back on filming. Leah Messer: I Don’t Care if Corey Simms Dies! “[Corey] told producers what he thought about the situation, and said that he and Miranda would not film nearly as much as in past seasons.” As for his ex-wife, Leah Messer also slammed producers for what she felt was an unfair portrayal this season, so they have that in common. Then again, in her case it was a little more complicated. After all, she was taken to task repeatedly for perceived parenting fails as well as her handling of relationships with both of her ex-husbands. It’s a turbulent world out there for those Teen Moms.

Charlie Sheen Accused of Hiring Gang to Beat Up HIV Doctor

Back in November,  Charlie Sheen revealed that he’s HIV positive , but if you were concerned that the illness would force the erratic actor to interrupt his regular schedule of dangerously batsh-t behavior, fear not: The Sheenius is as psychotic as ever, and aside from the occasional death threat issued to one of his exes, most of Sheen’s current entanglements are directly related to his illness. First there was the news that  Sheen may be facing jail time  for allegedly lying to former sex partners about his condition. Then there was the intense online debate centering around Sheen’s decision to stop taking his HIV meds in order to pursue an “alternative” method of treatment prescribed by a controversial doctor named Samir Chachoua, who’s currently operating out of Mexico (because his methods wouldn’t be legal in the U.S.). Now, perhaps inevitably, there’s a new scandal in Sheen Land – this one involving the actor’s outrage upon realizing that he wasn’t 100% insta-cured by Dr. Chachoua’s treatment. Radar Online has obtained a police report filed by Chachoua alleging that Sheen hired assailants to viciously assault the doctor as payback: “At the moment I was telling these people to give me back my phone, I felt a strong blow on the back of my head and felt that they had injected me with something, so that I fell to the floor and they began to hit me. “But in that moment I didn’t feel the blows, and it was at that moment that both of them began to search me and they took my money.” From there, Chachoua revealed details of the attack that have led him to the conclude that Sheen was somehow involved: “They told me they were about to inject me with AIDS blood,” he stated in the complaint. “But then they continued hitting me.” Chachoua famously claimed to have injected himself with Sheen’s blood as a means of proving that he’d cured the actor of HIV. “But at that time his partner told him, ‘Don’t kill him, because if you kill him, we won’t get paid,'” Chachoua continued. When a person is attacked by paid assailants shortly after working with an incredibly wealthy client, it doesn’t take much a leap in logic to arrive at the conclusion that said famous client might have put out a hit. And in case any doubt remained, the attackers allegedly left Chachoua with a note reading: “We are not criminals; we are justice … We reject the charlatans … You almost killed Charlie Sheen If the law does not allow us to take action, justice will inspire us. “We are not fans of Charlie, but no other celebrity has fought to cure AIDS. This is an insult to Mexico, our intelligence, and medical investigators. No more!” So they’re not rabid Two and a Half Men viewers, just impassioned pro-Sheen crusaders. Riiiiiight. The nail in the coffin came when Chachoua retrieved his phone and (allegedly) found that the attackers had sent several text messages, one of which read,  “TELL CHARLIE NEED ANOTHER 1000.” That’s almost too much evidence. If this were any other celebrity, we’d say Chachoua must be trying to frame him – but Chuckles isn’t exactly known for his subtlety.

Columbus Short Gets Sentenced To 30 Days In Jail After Violating Probation

Columbus Short Sentenced To 30 Days In Jail Columbus Short’s attempts at pulling his life together once again have been temporarily derailed , as the actor was sentenced to a brief stint in jail today. Apparently he violated his probation by refusing to stop puffing on mary jane — and being a ball of sorry excuses over it. Via TMZ : Columbus Short pissed off a judge with a wad of excuses for violating probation, and it got him a month behind bars. The ex “Scandal” star was in court Wednesday for a progress report where the judge handed down the jail sentence, plus 6 months in a residential drug treatment program. Prosecutors said Short was violating his probation from a 2014 assault case by continuing to smoke marijuana — testing showed his THC levels were increasing weekly. They also say he’s done ZERO hours of community service. Short tried playing the sympathy card — his lawyer informed the judge Short’s sister died of heart failure last week. It didn’t work and ultimately, Short apologized. He’d already been in custody for 6 days, and was immediately taken back to jail to do 24 more. SMH! Terrible news that he lost his sister in the midst of all his other issues. Hopefully he can pick himself up and piece his life back together after all this… Splash

Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom: Now Instagram Official!

In celebrity land, posting a photo of your new relationship to social media is a big deal. It’s basically saying, “this is the REAL DEAL, guys” and is typically followed up with rumors of a secret pregnancy. We’ve known that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have been coupling for a while now, with the first reports hitting the tabloids in January. Since then, they’ve been seen packing on the PDA together on numerous occasions, and it became clear they were no longer in hiding. And now, Perry has made the bold move of sharing a pic of herself with Bloom to Instagram. Here they are, the now-official couple, lying on some steps whilst wearing robes in the South of France: “We cannes’t,” she wrote in the caption, trying to be punny about their visit to the French city. Perry performed last night at the amfAR Gala during the Cannes Film Festival, where Bloom was also in attendance. Oddly enough, despite Perry’s social media confirmation of their coupledom, she walked the red carpet solo, and while inside the gala, the pair were seated separately. According to Us Weekly , photographers were instructed not to snap photos of the pair, and insiders claimed the two avoided appearing together. So it’s certainly curious why Perry would so freely share a pic of her and her beau to Insta the next day. Blame it on the alcohol? Earlier this month, Bloom was photographed getting cozy in a club with Selena Gomez , who the actor was rumored to have been dating last year. Fans were quick to assume he was going behind Perry’s back. However, both Perry and Gomez shut down the rumors on social media about as quickly as they started.

Get well soon! Columbus Short Is Going To Rehab Columbus Short, who previously admitted to an alcohol and cocaine addiction , is heading to rehab. The Jasmine Brand reports: theJasmineBRAND.com exclusively reports, Columbus Short is heading to rehab. Last month, the actor/singer tested positive for cocaine and marijuana use and faced a probation violation in a felony assault case. And now, we’ve exclusively learned that he’s headed to rehab. Sources tell us that he will stay at an outpatient facility in the Los Angeles area for around 4 to 6 months. Per usual, during rehab he will not be able to use any illegal drugs. We’re told that he’ll report a few times a week and will be subject to random drug testing. The former Scandal actor has also been given additional community service to complete. If he violates parole again, he’ll be subject to jail. Unfortunately, this isn’t Short’s first time in legal trouble. As part of a no-jail plea deal in 2014, Short pleaded guilty to misdemeanor domestic violence. Short also avoided jail by pleading no contest to a felony assault charge after throwing a punch at his in-law. Yikes, here’s to hoping he gets the help needs! WENN

Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth: Officially Back Together!!

Ever since January, we pretty much knew that Miley Cyrus had rekindled her relationship with Liam Hemsworth, we just didn't have photographic evidence. But now we do! Miley and Liam were spotted out on a date at West Hollywood vegan hotspot Gracias Madre, and sources told ET the singer appeared “happy and relaxed.” The couple were joined by Liam's brothers Chris and Luke, along with Luke's wife, Samantha. This is the first time the former fiances were captured on camera together since they ended their engagement in 2013. At the beginning of the year, eyewitnesses reported seeing the actor and the “Wrecking Ball” singer “cuddling and kissing” at the Falls Music Festival in Australia while hanging out with Liam's family. Since that moment, tabloids have been brimming with reports that the two were moving in together and even secretly got married . Last month, a rumor surfaced that Liam dumped Miley after he caught her sending naked selfies to her ex, Victoria's Secret model Stella Maxwell, but not surprisingly, that was just a bunch of hooey. Neither star have spoken publicly on their romance reboot, but showing up at a hip LA restaurant together where they know paparazzi might be hiding in the bushes is a fairly solid confirmation.
