We have an update on the condition of Ami Brown. Unfortunately, however, it is not a positive one. As previously detailed on The Hollywood Gossip and on episodes of Alaskan Bush People this season, the Brown family matriarch is sick. She’s very sick. She’s been diagnosed with lung cancer . On an earlier installment of the aforementioned Discovery Channel series, Ami’s husband said his wife was suffering from the Stage 3 level of this disease, but further tests may prove she’s in Stage 4. This would be the most severe type of lung cancer. It would mean Ami does not have very much time left. And while we cannot verify at the moment just which Stage Amy is at, a new photo shared on Facebook depicts the reality star in a wheelchair: “We found this recent photo of Billy, Ami and two lucky fans that was taken in California last night,” wrote son Matt Brown as a caption, adding: “We love Ami’s sweet smile! Don’t forget that Alaskan Bush People returns on Wednesday, Aug. 9th at 9PM ET on the Discovery channel. Have a great weekend!!” Ami has scarcely been seen out in public since her diagnosis. But her loved ones took her to California in order to receive treatment several weeks ago, a sure sign that things were not progressing well because the Browns are famous for almost never leaving their remote enclave in Alaska. “Bill and the kids are very loving and supportive,” Ami has said on air, trying to remain positive and adding: “They’re all worried. I tell them, don’t worry. Please don’t worry. Be happy … keep the faith. Good or bad, it’s God’s will and we’ll walk that road.” The situation is so dire that estranged members of Brown’s family are wondering if they’ll have a chance to reconcile before Ami dies . Even Alaskan Bush People producers, such as Sheila McCormack, have weighed in. “The radiation is five days a week for six weeks,” she said this week. “That’s the direct radiation, not the chemotherapy. After the radiation once a week she goes to another building and they put an IV in her and she gets chemotherapy for four hours.” As far as we know, the Browns remain in southern California while Ami undergoes this difficult treatment. Our thoughts remain with her throughout the ordeal. We hope we can end up including her in the following photo gallery when all is said and done: View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Beat Cancer
WENN Chris Brown Is Suing A Promoter For Extortion Back at it again with the shenanigans and legal issues. Chris Brown’s latest lawsuit is against a promoter in the Philippines, who Chris claims tried to extort him out of $300,000. The alleged incident happened all the way back in 2014, when C Breezy was supposed to perform for a New Year’s Eve show. The show had to be rescheduled because of passport issues, and the new performances was set for July of 2015. Here’s where things get strange: when Brown tried to exit his hotel, he was met by armed men who were blocking his every move. Chris was told by the lawyer for the arena that he would be arrested if he didn’t pay Jose Victor Los Banos Biongco $300,000. These scammers were no match for Christopher Maurice, and he called up an immigration lawyer right away. Eventually, the immigration lawyer got him out of the country without having to dish out $300K–all’s well that ends well. Well, not really. Because Chris is now suing the man for his “emotional distress” following the incident. Let us know how works out for you, Breezy.
Alaskan Bush People ‘s seventh and final season promised to include the biggest challenge and darkest moments yet in the series about a family roughing it in the wilderness. Rumor proved true when Ami Brown’s lung cancer diagnosis was revealed. Now fans of the family and the series have another concern about the family’s fate, and this time the worries are about the entire Brown clan. You’d think that a television series that began right after their old home had been burned to the ground (for being on public land illegally) would end on a happier note than it began. But that’s not how things always work out in life. Especially not when we’re talking about people who are dedicated to living in the wilderness. Ami Brown is receiving treatment in the “lower 48,” meaning in the US but not in Alaska (or Hawaii). Obviously, with such heavy news and the final season of the series, there’s been talk of the Brown family closing down Browntown and rejoining civilization. Billy Brown said as much. And that is the new source of concern among some of the fans. You might think that fans of the series, knowing that the series is ending anyway and wanting the best for the Brown family, would rejoice at that news that the Brown family would rejoin civilization. (While, of course, still grieving for Ami Brown’s diagnosis) But their reaction has actually been the opposite . Fans use Facebook groups to discuss the series. It’s understandable that they’ve become intensely attached to these people after watching them for so many years. What’s a little more perplexing is the fan reactions to learning that the Brown family is all reportedly living in the lower 48. Fans of Alaskan Bush People are asking the Brown family children to return to Browntown , because fans believe that it will honor the dedication and dreams of their parents. They even hope that Noah’s fiancee, Rhain, will join the Brown family in the wilderness. This speaks volumes about these particular fans. In part, it says that they’ve become attached to Ami and Billy and their dream and lifestyle, rather than just to the younger characters. There’s arguably a romantic quality to the idea of living in the woods and making it on your own. People love The Hunger Games , after all. But those books and films are pretend. The problem in Alaskan Bush People is that they had kids and raised their children in that way of life. Kind of hard to get a fair start in life when you spend a lot of your childhood in temporary shelters, you know? Regardless, they’re now (mostly) adults and reality stars and they’re all starting new chapters in their lives. It’s more than a little unsettling to see so many fans wanting them to not do that. What the Brown family members deserve is to live their own lives. We’re sure that they’ll all have more opportunities in the future based on their existing fame. Everybody could get a book deal, for starters. Noah and Rhain can do their alternative/goth thing wherever their lives take them. If this were happening a few years ago, we’d suggest that Bear Brown might get some modeling gigs. Sometimes fans grow too attached the idea of the show and not the people. If the folks on Naked and Afraid stayed on the show for more than half a decade, fans would probably be upset when it came time for them to put on clothes. Fandom’s a weird thing, and endings are always bittersweet. View Slideshow: 27 Reality Stars Who Died Way Too Young

You Got Served: Chris Brown Hit With Legal Papers In Karrueche Lawsuit During Houston Tour Spot BOSSIP can exclusively reveal that Chris Brown’s 28th birthday has not started off on a happy note for the superstar. Brown’s tour hit Houston Thursday night and after the show, the singer and his crew had an afterparty at Groove’s Restaurant and Lounge. That’s where things hit a sour note for Brown, as BOSSIP can exclusively confirm that Brown was finally served with the legal documents from Karrueche’s restraining order. BOSSIP witnesses at the scene tells us the singer was not pleased that his legal issues have finally caught up with him. “He was pissed,” a clubgoer who saw Brown react to being met outside the club by the server tol BOSSIP. Pretty much we’d expect. BOSSIP previously told you Breezy had been making it extremely difficult for Karrueche’s team to serve him, even going so far as to ban his lawyers from accepting the paperwork. Knowing Christopher Maurice, he’s not gonna let a little thing like a restraining order ruin his birthday! WENN/Instagram
