Terrence Howard Gives Head-Scratching Explanation For Quitting Acting

See more here:

Source: Noel Vasquez / Getty Earlier this month we reported that Empire actor Terrence Howard announced that he would be done acting following the conclusion of this season of filming. He was asked about decision on before the Emmy’s this past Sunday. His answer was very… bizarre. Terrence Howard explaining why he left Empire is the funniest thing you’d see today. Lmaooo pic.twitter.com/OeTHSZn1Rz — JAGS (@EtniesJags) September 24, 2019 “I’ve spent 37 years pretending to be people, so that people can pretend to watch and enjoy what I’m doing. I made some discoveries in my own personal life with the science that Pythagorus was searching for I was able to open up the flower of life properly and find the real wave conjugations that we have been looking for 10,000 years. Why would I continue to walk on water for tips when I’ve got an entire generation to teach a whole new world.” It appears that Terrence Howard believes he has found a greater purpose in life than just acting. Howard continued to talk about frequencies and wavelengths in life that make things make more sense. “All energy in the universe is expressed in motion, all motion is expressed in waves, all waves are curves so where do the straight lines, so when I took the flower of life and opened it properly I found a whole new wave conjugation that exposed space.” The second part of that answer really leaves more questions than it answers. But Howard seems pretty set on being done with acting, and appears to be moving into conspiracy theory territory. Nonetheless, I wish Terrance Howard prosperity in his life after acting. The new season of Empire premiered last night and will come on Tuesday night’s on FOX.

Tyler Cameron: I Could’ve Been The Bachelor … But I’d Rather Bone Gigi Hadid!

When the world first learned that Tyler Cameron was dating Gigi Hadid, it was widely assumed that the attraction was purely physical and that the two of them would go their separate ways following a few weeks of very photogenic sexual escapades. Instead, something wholly unexpected has taken place: Against all odds, it seems that Tyler and Gigi have triumphed over their own superior genetics to form a really ridiculously good-looking monogamous couple. Tyler gushes about Gigi every chance that he gets. He even attended the funeral of Hadid’s grandmother , a move that reportedlty surprised the model’s loved ones, who did not realize she and Tyler had gotten so serious. Now, we’re learning that Tyler has made the ultimate sacrifice by passing up additional fame and the attention of few dozen single women in order to pursue his relationship with Gigi. As you’ve probably heard by now, Peter Weber has been named the new Bachelor. It seems the title could have been Tyler’s but he opted out, as he no longer considers himself a single man. “Yeah, it was something we talked about,” Cameron recently told Entertainment Tonight. “Where I was at at my life … I just didn’t think it was where I wanted to be. My heart wasn’t in it.” “I just I sat on it, thought about it, and my heart wasn’t in it,” he further explained. “And that’s something you have to be fully invested in. I was on the other side of it as a contestant, which is a much easier role than being the lead of the show.” Perhaps in an effort to soften the blow for Hannah Brown — who asked Tyler on a date after colossally effing up by dumping him in favor of Jed Wyatt — Chris Harrison claims Tyler made the decision not so that he could settle down with Gigi, but so that he caould continue to play the field “If Tyler is bouncing around from girl to girl and loving the life and enjoying the limelight, which, by the way, good on him,” Harrison told ET. “That’s fine. If that’s what you want to do right now, I don’t blame him,” the host continued. “He’s probably enjoying life really, really well — but that’s not someone we’re going to want to have as our Bachelor or Bachelorette,” added Harrison. “So, it’s about sincerity. It’s about where you are in your life. And if that’s where he is in his life, then he’s not the guy for us.” That’s mighty kind of you Chris, but we think it’s pretty clear that Tyler only has one rose to give out these days, and it’s got Gigi’s name all over it.

Vape Or Die: California Health Department Urges Everyone To Stop E-Cigs Until Investigation Is Over

Source: Chicago Tribune / Getty California Health Officials Advise Against Vaping And E-Cigarettes The vaping industry is under fire by health officials and California is taking a hard stance against the latest smoking craze . According to LATimes , health officials in the state are urging the public to quit vaping until they can determine exactly what effects the vapor has on the lungs and body. “We are seeing something that we have not seen before,” said Dr. Charity Dean, California’s acting public health officer, in a statement. “There are numerous unknown factors at this time, and due to the uncertainty of the exact cause, it is our recommendation that consumers refrain from vaping until the investigation has concluded.” The fear is that the ingredients inside the liquid capsules, both nicotine and THC, that make vapor may be toxic and cause extreme damage to the lungs. “People are getting sick and some are dying as a result of vaping,” Gov. Newsom said in a statement Tuesday. “Californians are encouraged to stop vaping until health officials fully understand what’s causing this public health crisis.” To date there have been 530 reported cases of injuries and 7 deaths related to e-cigs. Not that smoking is ever good regardless of the substance, but maybe the old school way is *better* than the unknown electronic way for right now.

Steve Kazee: Who is Jenna Dewan’s Brand New Baby Daddy?!?

Jenna Dewan announced a very exciting piece of news this week: She and boyfriend Steve Kazee are expecting a baby! It’s unexpected, but it’s true! “We are beyond overjoyed and couldn’t be happier to be expanding our family!” the couple told People Magazine on Tuesday morning, keeping the announcement short, yet awfully sweet. The 38-year old former World of Dance host welcomed her first child, Everly, in May 2013 with her estranged husband, Channing Tatum. Those attractive stars stunned the universe about a year and a half ago upon announcing their marriage was over. “We have lovingly chosen to separate as a couple,” Tatum and Dewan said at the time, adding in their joint statement: “We fell deeply in love so many years ago and have had a magical journey together. “Absolutely nothing has changed about how much we love one another, but love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now. “There are no secrets nor salacious events at the root of our decision – just two best-friends realizing it’s time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives as possible” Dewan and Kazee then started dating early in the fall of 2018, but they’ve kept their romance largely under the radar, prompting many to ask the following question about learning the actress is expecting: Who the heck is Steve Kazee?!? For starters, he actually won the 2012 Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical for Once . Among other biographical tidbits? Steve Kazee was born and raised in Ashland, Kentucky. He is an alumnus of Fairview High School and Morehead State University. He moved to New York City in 2002 and received his MFA from the Graduate Acting Program at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. He’s also one of the busy, successful, veteran actors whose face you may very well recognize, even if you can’t remember his name. He has enjoyed roles on such programs as Numb3rs… NCIS… CSI: Crime Scene Investigation… Elementary… Drop Dead Diva… and Shameless. “She’s very happy,” a People source says of Dewan in reference to her romance with Kazee and, we presume, her pregnancy. In February, Kazee shared a tribute to her on Valentine’s Day with a photo of Dewan looking at the camera from a bed. This is what he wrote at the time: “Somehow, inexplicably, I’ve been granted the honor to have this be the person that I get to be side by side with throughout this wild journey we call life. “Jenna I don’t know what I did to deserve your love but I will always be so thankful that our lives found their way to each other. Here’s looking at you, kid.” How sweet, right? Sounds like prime father material to us!

Valedictorian Who Battled Homelessness Starts School At Yale

Link:

A tlanta native Chelesa Fearce is living proof that you can rise above your circumstances and overcome the odds. Despite battling homelessness throughout her high school years, she went on to be named valedictorian of her class, graduated from Spelman College and is now a student at Yale University, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Chelesa Fearce was homeless in high school. Now she'll be pursuing a medical degree and PhD at Yale University https://t.co/M0ODG4XT0p #10TV — 10TV.com (@10TV) September 12, 2019 Fearce, 23, is currently pursuing her MD–PhD degree at the Yale School of Medicine; a major step towards her goal of launching a career in psychiatry. Fearce’s journey to the prestigious Ivy League school was no easy feat. While attending Charles R. Drew High School in Riverdale, Georgia she and her family were homeless. She would often go without food and would use the stove lights at motels for her studying sessions. Despite living in those conditions, she earned a 4.5 grade point average and was named valedictorian of her class in 2013. Her academic accomplishments garnered her a full scholarship to Spelman College. After graduating from the historically Black college with a degree in biochemistry, she went on to work for a national health agency and started the next step in her academic journey at Yale last month. Fearce says her experience with homelessness instilled values that she has taken with her throughout every stage of her life. “Homelessness taught me how to work hard, always persevere and never let anything get in my way,” she told the news outlet. “It really helped show my resilience when I applied for college and medical school.” Fearce and her family have been dedicated to paying it forward and helping those in need. There was a scholarship named in her honor for homeless students determined to further their education. Her mother Reenita Shepherd has become the foster parent of four children and is currently serving as a caretaker for a former homeless shelter director.

Will & Jada Had To Stage An Intervention After Jaden Smith’s Vegan Diet Had Him ‘Wasting Away’

Source: Rodin Eckenroth / Getty Will & Jada Were Worried Jaden Smith Was Wasting Away On His Vegan Diet Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith became really worried about their son Jaden’s diet when he tried going vegan at one point. The couple expressed this concern on Monday’s episode of   Red Table Talk , where the entire Smith family sat down and discussed their relationships with food. This all happened after Will called an “emergency” meeting with them, along with Willow, Trey, and Adrienne Banfield-Jones. The family all ended up admitting that their relationship with food wasn’t the healthiest. The conversation began with Will opening up about gaining weight on a recent vacation and being deemed “Pudgemuffin” by the women in his family, saying that for him, eating food is “like an addict.” On the other hand, Jada and Jaden are the exact opposite. Both of them said that they would rather not eat than snack throughout the day, calling it “uncomfortable.” That’s when Will and Jada discussed the intervention they had for their son. “Will and I had a bit of an intervention with Jaden because he’s a vegan now, but we realized he wasn’t getting enough protein,” Jada explained. “So he was wasting away. He just looked drained, he was just depleted, he wasn’t getting the nutrients.” Will also said that Jaden had “dark circles” under his eyes. “There was even a little grayness to his skin,” Will continued. “We got really nervous. But you’re definitely looking better now.” Jaden went on to clarify that he’s now vegetarian after trying to be vegan, then went on to further explain his eating habits. “I was just eating like two meals a day…maybe one. Maybe just that one big meal and I’m like, ‘Oh, you know, I didn’t get around to it.’” Check out the entire episode of Red Table Talk with the Smith family down below:

Andrew Glennon Gushes Over Baby James Amid Amber Portwood Scandal

We wished that we could be shocked, but Amber Portwood has not been fired by MTV. But her troubles aren’t over, yet. As she reels from the scandal after fans heard Andrew Glennon’s harrowing audio of her abuse , Andrew’s priorities lie elsewhere. He’s doting on his precious son, James, and gushing over his little boy on social media. Fans are eating it up. Andrew Glennon took to Instagram to sharea  pair of fun, adoring photos of him and baby James. “The Bubbs. :)” James begins his sweet caption, including a smiley face emoticon. He praises his baby boy as the “most curious and loving man I know.” A curious baby is a very good sign about his intelligence and development! “Able to reverse engineer anything,” Andrew announces. “And leave it a mess in a single bound.” Andrew wasn’t the only one handing out compliments and praise. One follower congratulated him for remaining steadfast in the face of horror, abuse, and uncertainty. “I admire you for your ability to stand up against how you’ve been treated,” the comment begins. “You’re teaching your son very important lessons,” the fan praises. “And,” the follower concludes. “I know he will grow up to see you as his hero. Good job daddy!” In this day and age, “daddy” is probably not what you want to call a man on the internet unless you really, really mean it. “Such a great papa!” cheers another follower. That same fan continues: “Great to see a beautiful baby with a even better single dad!” “Your (sic) doing a great job raising James,” praises another. The comment suggests: “just dont let him forget about his sister Leah.” The follower advises: “keep in contact with her and her parents Gary and Kristina, she seems to love him dearly” That last followr’s advise was so good and well-intentioned that Andrew responded. “Spoke with Gary,” Andrew announced. “And planning a baby James visit with him, Kristina, Emmy, and Leah soon,” he revealed. Andrew adds: “Just need to pick a day.” Oh, that is both wonderful and exciting. Amber does not have custody of Leah, of course. As fans are hopeful that James will similarly be protected by the time that this ugly business is over, it’s good to remember that they’re siblings. Different dads does not make James and Leah non-siblings. They’re just half-siblings — which is emotionally the same as siblings, folks. And the fact that the person they have in common happens to be a truly terrible mother also does not matter. James and Leah should be in each other’s lives, and it’s wonderful that both Gary and Andrew are taking the steps to ensure that. Despite the evidence that suggests that Amber was verbally and physically abusive towards Andrew, some fans have stood by her. These fans tend to make arguments along the lines of how Andrew must have manipulated her to get her to behave that way. That sounds awfully close to cries of “she shouldn’t have made me mad” that countless of abusers have used as an excuse. Folks, no amount of “manipulation,” even if it were real, could excuse domestic violence. We hope that Amber’s children continue to remain safe from the toxic environment that follows her wherever she goes.
