Source: Splash / Splash News After giving Los Angeles and Ohio a taste of his once-private musical gospels, Kanye West finally got around to taking his Sunday Service show to his hometown of Chicago this past weekend and sure enough fans lined up outside Chicago’s Huntington Pavilion to receive the Holy Ghost courtesy of Yeezus. With hardcore Yeezy fans braving the rainy weather outside of the arena hoping to catch a glimpse of the man of the house, Kanye West eventually made his way through the mob of aficionados to take the stage and energize the congregation by performing his classics “Jesus Walks” (of course) and “Ultralight Beam.” Though the chances of Yeezy officially opening at Sunday Service church in Chicago is slim to none, but according to Billboard the musical director did tell the Chi-Town crowd “We’ll see you soon.” Who knows what they have planned for the future in Chicago but Lord knows having Kanye spreading positivity in his hometown is sorely needed especially at a time when gun violence in Chiraq has become a part of everyday life in some places.

Reunited… and God, did it NOT feel good! On the Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 17 premiere Sunday night, viewers were given a glimpse into Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson‘s first public hang-out since the latter cheated on his baby mama with Jordyn Woods in February. And at least one stunning development came out of this gathering. As the episode opened, the 35-year old mother of one confessed she still had “so many raw emotions” towards her ex in the wake of their split. “I’m really just trying to figure out my own life at the moment,” she said. “I’m just healing and processing and going through the motions.” Thompson, of course, slept with other women while Khloe was pregnant with their daughter. She gave him another chance, however, only for Tristan to then swap spit with a good friend of Khloe and her family’s less than a year later. According to Khloe, Tristan had been trying to see her right around when the Season 17 premiere was filmed… but she kept turning down these requests. “Tristan thinks people are disposable — if he sends me enough flowers or enough text messages, I’m going to come around,” she explained, continuing along this theme as follows: “I still have not spoken to Tristan face-to-face and right now, I am not ready to. “I know I’ll get to that place, but right now it’s really challenging and tough for me. My feelings are super raw and I am really humiliated and hurt by what he did to me.” Kardashian and Thompson share young True, who turned a year old in April. Despite all he has done to her, Khloe has never tried to keep her ex away from her daughter — which meant she felt compelled to invite Thompson to his child’s birthday party on this premiere. “It’s the first time Tristan and I will be in a public setting together,” Khloe said. “I’m envisioning a party full of people, Tristan walks in and everyone is staring at us — I don’t want this at my daughter’s first birthday party.” She then recounted all the ways in which Thompson has tried to make up for his wandering penis and tongue. “All Tristan does is sent countless amounts of flowers, calls, texts, and I just haven’t been ready to talk to him because I feel like it’s going to turn into a screaming match and I don’t care to scream,” Khloe told viewers. “But I said that I would be willing for the first time to speak to him if there’s a therapist involved.” With this on the table, the parents did alleegedly take part in an off-camera therapy session via FaceTime “to help co-parent True,” but but Khloe said it went very poorly. She then wondered why she invited Thompson to True’s party. Ultimately, Khloe choce actually invited Thompson over the night before the shindog they could “get the whole initial weird first seeing each other out of the way in private.” This did make sense, but it also meant their reunion wasn’t filmed for the show and we had to rely on Khloe telling her assistant that it was “pretty awkward” to have any idea what transpired. “He was just kind of lingering … He was like, ‘So, do you want to grab a glass of wine?’” Khloe said, adding that Tristan even tried to kiss her after she reluctantly gave him a hug. Wait… WHAT? And how did Khloe respond? “I go, ‘This is the problem with you. You can’t just take what you get,’” she said, adding: “Then this morning he was like, ‘Thank you for letting me see True. She looked great, you looked even better.’ … Sometimes I feel like if I give an inch, he’ll take a mile and take my kindness for weakness.” Look, we suppose this may have happened. But doesn’t it seem just as likely that Khloe just made it all up for the sake of a storyline? It’s not like Thompson is in a place to publicly deny anything. As for how things went at the party? Khloe was mostly concerned about how Thompson would interact with Kim Kardashian , who had been a rather harsh critic ever since the Woods debacle. “This situation, it’s a little awkward,” Khloe said. “Everyone is staring at us and I’m really concerned, a little uncomfortable, about Kim and Tristan’s dynamic.” She should have been worried aboout Tristan and Kanye’s dynamic, as it turned out. Footage was shown on E! of the two having an animated conversation — and while there was no audio, the rapper later claimed that Thompson was upset about the fact that the family used the intro to West’s song “Runaway” in a Season 17 teaser. (The lyrics reference toasting to “a—holes” and “scumbags.”) “He felt like we were using my music to reinforce his narrative,” West said, after which an angry Khloe fumed. “I don’t need at my daughter’s birthday party for any of this to be a discussion,” she said. “I know everyone’s intention is to help and be protective,” she added. “But at True’s birthday party, it’s not the right timing.” In conclusion, while Thompson is feuding with Kanye, he’s supposedly getting help from a past Kanye rival.

Source: Newspix / Getty Kevin Hart has a long road of recovery ahead of him. The actor and comedian is walking again after suffering sever back injuries in a car crash, but he is in excruciating pain. Reports TMZ : Sources connected to the comedian tell us that Kevin is, in fact, walking again — as Tiffany Haddish mentioned Friday at the Harper’s Bazaar ICONS event in NYC — but he’s not nearly as “good” as she made it seem. We’re told he’s walking slowly and gingerly at this point. We’re also told KH’s starting physical therapy this weekend at the hospital he’s currently being treated at. That’s great considering he just underwent surgery days ago. While he may be taking steps in his road to full health, make no mistake … we’re told Kevin is in excruciating pain as he heals, but that he’s also maintaining a relatively positive mood. Hart reportedly suffered three spinal fractures as a result of a crash (he was the passenger) invovling his 1970 Plymouth Barracuda in Malibu Hill. Hart reportedly bought the car as a birthday gift to himself in July.

Last month, fans saw that Colt Johnson and his girlfriend seemed to be talking about marriage — or, at least, open to discussing it. Now, things are looking much more serious than just a discussion. Colt is in the market to buy a ring, and he’s not even being subtle about it. Colt Johnson adn Jess Caroline haven’t made things Instagram Official just yet. But they’ve both made it very clear that they’re happily dating — months into a relationship that no one thought would last past the first date. Jess’ Instagram is private and she even showed some semi-public display of affection recently. (We have that photo for you below) And Colt? Well, he leaves brazen comments on her (private) Instagram, making no effort to hide their relationship. Oh, and he’s looking to put a ring on it. “Looking for someone that makes jewelry,” Colt recently wrote in his Instagrami Stories. He continued, imploring any followers with a recommendation to “DM me please.” Alongside his request, Coltee included sketches — concept art — for a ring. It’s not just that he wants to buy a ring. He very clearly wants his followers in a tizzy over whether he’s about to propose to Jess. And he’s getting his wish. We hope that this ring, should Colt get it made and give ti to Jess, will meet a better fate than the ring Colt gave to Larissa when they married. His relationship with The Queen was volatile and deeply toxic for both parties. During a moment of emotional distress after a fight, Larissa actually flushed her ring. She later exposed the ring’s price, feeling slighted that (the notoriously cheap) Coltee had bought the ring on Etsy for a modest price. It looks like Colt is once again choosing a “unique” ring instead of a pricier option. Maybe Jess will appreciate it more. As we mentioned, Jess shared this image — of Colt’s hand on her thigh — on her private Instagram. “To love is to go hand in hand through this strange and magical maze that is life,” Jess reflected in her captions. She continued to approximately quote an existing poem: “It is not to lose sight of the other, but to let him breathe when needed.” “It is facing the fear of the abyss, of truth, of doubt, of certainty,” Jess wrote. She added: “It is embracing tight to cure pain, sadness, failure.” “It is giving a silly and innocent smile in the middle of the day,” Jess concluded. “Simply by knowing that the other exists” A number of fans have expressed surprise that Colt’s other half, his mother, Debbie, seems to be okay with this relationship. We guess that not having Colt’s new lady love move in the day they meet probably helps her get adjusted to the idea. And she may be supporting Colt’s romance with Jess because, at this point, she’ll root for anyone who isn’t Larissa Lima. Will Colt’s eventual marriage to Jess be the milestone that ultimately severs his metaphorical umbilical cord for good? Only time will tell. For now, he still hasn’t popped the question.

Elena Garas bringing the high concept instagram pics cuz that’s what she thinks will get her talked about.. Get naked, pose in the same place, same way everyone else is posing, and maybe you’ll get followers, work, free shit a sugar daddy, who fucking knows… I am not going to complain about DIY nudity for marketing purposes…because I think it’s awesome. If anything I am just mad I lived a life that this didn’t always exist in. I think everything would be substantially different if girls I grew up around were out there trying to be models or personalities. If the single most important thing was to get followers and doing it through nudity was generally socially accepted…. If going to clubs was with naked chicks doing it for the cause, instead of chicks who you’d have to get drunk to get naked. It’s better now, even with all the PC annoying bullshit – thanks to NUDITY.
