Aubrey O’Day has made her first public statement since news of her affair with Donald Trump Jr. went viral. But it’s not exactly a formal statement. Far from it, in fact. The former Danity Kane singer and Celebrity Apprentice cast member allegedly slept with the President’s son for many months in 2011, while Donald Jr. was married to wife Vanessa. (Who was pregnant with her third child at the time, it should be noted.) Multiple outlets have confirmed this relationship, with many sources claiming this was the opposite of a fling. The feelings on both sides were apparently quite serious, with O’Day convinced Trump was going to leave his wife for her. Heck, one recent report alleged that O’Day and Trump had discussed having a baby together! Despite O’Day not having talked about this affair, and despite Trump being the one who was married at the time of their banging, Aubrey is the one who has been getting flak online. And we mean A LOT of flak. She’s been slammed across social media, referred to as every mean name in the book… and now O’Day is fighting back. Sort of. To some small extent at least. “embrace the shade,” the 34-year-old singer captioned the first photo we shared in this article, making it clear just how she plans on handling the hate. Simply put, she will embrace it. An O’Day insider recently told Us Weekly that when this affair started, the stars were “very serious all of a sudden,” adding that “he told her it was over with his wife, that they were separated and he didn’t love her – all of that stuff.” Eventually, however, Vanessa Trump discovered emails between Donald and O’Day. She supposedly called O’Day and made her feel guilty about the romance by having her two kids on the line . Sort of weird. But effective, we guess. In the end, however, it was Donald Trump Sr. who reportedly learned of the affair and told his son to cut it out. (We’re shocked The Donald didn’t shake his son’s hand and congratulate him instead. But that’s another story.) Earlier this month, six years after this affair ended, Vanessa Trump filed for divorce. Said the Trumps in a joint statement: “After 12 years of marriage, we have decided to go our separate ways. We will always have tremendous respect for each other and our families. We have five beautiful children together and they remain our top priority. We ask for your privacy during this time.
Just when we thought the latest run of Kardashian-Jenner offspring would come to an end with the upcoming birth of Khloe Kardashian’s child… … a brand new baby bombshell has been dropped: Kris Jenner is pregnant!!!!!! With an actual human being! At age 62! Jenner has been dating Corey Gamble for years now and has made no secret how excited she gets every time one of her kids welcomes a new little boy or girl into the world. So we guess it shouldn’t be a complete surprise that she has decided to become a parent herself once again. “Kris simply saw the joy on Kylie and Khloe’s faces when they were pregnant,” an insider says, labeling Jenner as “jealous” and “curious” about whether she’d be able to procreate at her advanced age. But medicine has come a long way over the past decade or so, and it allegedly didn’t take long for Kris to have an answer to this question: Yup, she sure can! Jenner is toward the end of her first trimester, according to sources we are not at liberty to name just yet. She’s due to give birth in mid-September. Will it be a boy or a girl? Yes, these same sources confirm, although it’s unknown at this time which gender will be added to an ever-growing brood. On February 1, Kylie Jenner gave birth to Stormi Webster. Any day now, Khloe Kardashian is expected to welcome a daughter of her own. In January, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West also welcomed a daughter, this one named Chicago. Jenner, meanwhile, is already the mother of six kids. They are: Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Rob, Kylie and Kendall. While Kris herself has not yet Tweeted about the news, her famous kids couldn’t help doing so. “Just #blessed,” wrote Kim, who included a baby emoji and a surprised face emoji with her message. “So happy for my mom,” Tweeted Kourtney while posing in a bikini on some tropical vacation. “Sheesh, thanks for stealing my thunder!” joked Khloe, adding that she is “beyond thrilled at this wonderful news.” View Slideshow: The Kardashians Confess: 15 Things You Didn’t Know About Us Then there was Kendall, who used Instagram to share her well wishes. “Wow! I did not see this one coming, but I just know mom will be an amazing mother once again,” she wrote. “Look at my burgeoning new bikini body !” Tweeted Kylie, while Rob chimed in as follows: “I’m hungry.” The Hollywood Gossip, meanwhile, would like to include a message here to wrap things up ourselves. And here it goes: JUST KIDDING! HAPPY APRIL FOOL’S DAY, READERS!!!!! Did we get you?!?
Kim Kardashian celebrated the holiest of days on the Catholic calendar by sharing a picture that provoked a pretty similar reaction across the Internet. And that reaction was this: HOLY CRAP, THAT’S INAPPOPRIATE! Yes, the reality star really did share the above photo of her impressive cleavage on the day Jesus Christgot resurrected and came back to life many years ago. And, yes, she did include a bunny ears emoji as a caption along with it. But promoting her sensual figure on this special holiday is actually NOT the reason Kim is under intense online scrutiny right now. Instead, Kardashian is facing a great deal of backlash today for the following Twitter photo and message: “Happy Easter,” Kim wrote as a simple caption to this snapshot, which features a golden cross shimmering in the sky with the sun behind it. However, religious symbol is lined with a repeating design that looks to be diamonds, leading some pious followers to think Kardashian has missed the spirit of the Easter holiday. Jesus, after all, was not exactly into wealth and the flaunting of one’s riches. “Nothing says Easter better than a diamond studded cross,” wrote one annoyed Internet user in response to this picture, while another asked: “is this a joke?” The mother of three, who was just praised a few days ago for her March of Our Lives attendance , is now once again considered the self-centered enemy by a handful of critics. Here’s a selection of other Twitter comments in reply to her fancy diamond image: Another person said she thought this was a “meme” on Kim’s part. But we’re pretty sure she meant it as a serious way to send Easter wishes to her followers. “Ok but anyone else think this might be a yeezus album cover hint??” asked another user, which really would be pretty lame on Kim’s part. One really should not use this very holy day as a PR opportunity. Then again, some might say, one should not appropriate Asian culture in the way Kim has often been accused of doing. What do you think of this alleged Kim Kardashian scandal? Is it really a scandal? Did Kim cross a line with this picture of a cross? Or should some folks just calm down and not overanalyze everything this woman says and does? Sound off below with your thoughts and… … Happy Easter!

… and now for a sentence we did not think we’d be writing today: Kristin Kreuk has issued a strong statement in denial of reports that she helped recruit sex slaves for a self-help group in which the actress formerly played a role. This message from Kreuk comes days after Keith Raniere – the co-founder of a mysterious and controversial self-improvement group named “Nxivm” – was arrested in Mexico. Known as “Vanguard” to his loyal followers, Raniere was taken into custody on a number of sex trafficking and forced labor charges. According to the criminal complaint, the 57-year-old used his power, position and influence as the head of Nxivm to “brainwash” women into forced labor and sex, while even branding them with his initials. We’re talking really heinous stuff here. Where does Kreuk enter the picture? According to Page Six, the actress (best known for having portrayed a young Superman’s love interest, Lana Lang, on Smallville) was a member of this organization. She joined in late 2005, the newspaper writes, and helped bring Smallville co-star Allison Mack into the fold. Mack was accused last year of luring women into the sex slave ring started by Raniere; and this report alleges that Kreuk was also considered some kind of “recruiter” within Nxivm. Kreuk left the group in 2012, reportedly after she learned Raniere was sleeping with underage girls. And now she’s released a statement that denies any such recruiting role in general. “When I was about 23, I took an Executive Success Programs/NXIVM ‘intensive,’ what I understood to be a self help/personal growth course that helped me handle my previous shyness, which is why I continued with the program,” Kreuk wrote, adding in detail: “I left about five years ago and had minimal contact with those who were still involved.” The actress went on to shoot down talk that she had any influence within the group and was not involved in its “Dominus Obsequious Sororium” (DOS), which translates from Latin to “Master Over the Slave Woman.” Writes Kreuk: “The accusations that I was in the ‘inner circle’ or recruited women as ‘sex slaves’ are blatantly false. “During my time, I never experienced any illegal or nefarious activity. I am horrified and disgusted by what has come out about DOS.” The women brought into this group were allegedly placed on a strict diet of about 500 to 800 calories a day in order to satisfy Raniere. The cult leader coerced the women into having sex with him and doing menial chores for “masters,” according to previous reports. Concluded the actress: Thank you to all the brave women who have come forward to share their stories and expose DOS; I can’t imagine how difficult this has been for you. I am deeply disturbed and embarrassed to have been associated with NXIVM. I hope that the investigation leads to justice for all of those affected. Kreuk also starred as the lead character on Beauty and the Beast and appeared on multiple episodes of Chuck. Mack is expected to be arrested in the near future, Page Six writes. What a weird and horrifying story all around.
