Blac Chyna Loses License To “Lashed” Business… Meanwhile Kylie Is Koming With Her Own Lash Line!

Source: Patricia Schlein/WENN.com / WENN Blac Chyna Lash Business Suspended Over Failure To File Tax Return Bad news in Blac Chyna land … The Blast recently confirmed that Lashed, LLC was suspended by the Franchise Tax Board on November 1, 2018. That’s Blac Chyna’s cosmetics company for those who are unaware. California-based businesses can be suspended by either the Secretary of State’s office or the FTB for a handful of different reasons, a spokesperson for the tax board tells the Blast they suspended Lashed for its “failure to file a tax return.” Due to the suspension, Chyna’s business has now lost to conduct business and she’ll also be put in the position where she’s unable to sue on behalf of or defend Lashed in court, file a claim for refund, legally close or dissolve the business. According to the FTB, the California agency responsible for collecting and enforcing personal and corporate income taxes, suspended companies are also subject to a $2,000 penalty. But we probably shouldn’t feel too bad because these repercussions follow a failure to respond to over two months-worth of notices. Since launching Lashed in late 2014, Chyna’s beauty biz has sold cosmetics, including lashes and lipsticks, both online at LashedCosmetics.com as well as her actual Encino store, where services like eyelash extensions, waxing and teeth whitening were offered. While the suspension won’t affect Lashed customers ability to make purchases online her Ventura Blvd based brick and mortar has been looking mighty empty. Chyna held a grand re-opening back in September but a neighboring business owner told The Blast they haven’t seen her back since. Meanwhile, to add insult to injury, Kylie Jenner filed to trademark the term “KYLASH,” for the purposes of artificial eyelashes, eyelash tint. You already know Kylie’s a beast at the beauty biz, so this could be a big area of expansion for her. Blac Chyna might want to get things right with the taxman quickly because businesses lose the right to use their name when they’re suspended, which means another enterprising Californian could come in and stake their claim.

Kayti Edwards: Dax Shepard CHEATED on Kristen Bell! With ME!!

Dax Shepard adn Kristen Bell have one of the most treasured marriages in Hollywood. They’re both amazing, Dax is 14 years sober , and they’re amazing parents. But is Dax a cheater ? An ex of Dax came forward to accuse him of cheating on Kristen with her, and she even has photos. The Daily Mail dropped a bombshell that could threaten to shake up one of Hollywood’s most beloved and enduring marriages. Former model Kayti Edwards came forward with a whopper of a story. She says that, in 2009, she hooked up with Dax Shepard — while he was already dating Kristen Bell. According to her claims, the two were exes and happened to run into one another at a party. She says that one thing led to another. Kayti even provided photos that she claims are evidence of their hookup. According to Kayti, it was after the party that the two exes actually banged, going to a house where she was house-sitting at the time. “We went back and made love,” Kayti claims, using romantic language. “We had sex twice and he stayed until the next morning,” she rephrases. According to Kayti: “I didn’t know he had a girlfriend at the time.” “He didn’t seem to care,” she characterizes. (This is a more recent image of Kayti from an interview she gave about Matthew Perry) Kayti says that the two of them dated, years before that alleged encounter, in 2005. “He’s just a normal person, but he’s funny,” Kayti says of Dax. She continues: “I was attracted to his confidence.” In 2005, Dax would have been newly sober — having become so in September of 2004 after many struggles. Dax of course saw Kayti’s claim, and issued a response of his own. “Hey Daily Mail, that photo is 13 years old, not 9,” Dax writes on Instagram. He then exposes his ex for what appears to be a colorful history. “Also,” Dax says. “Kayti has sold stories to tabloids about Matthew Perry, Jack Osbourne, Kid Rock, and now me.” Wow. That’s quite a list. Also, it really takes determination for someone to admit that they boned Kid Rock. “I look forward to her next one,” Dax concludes. “Fingers crossed it’s about my #1, Brad Pitt.” He finishes that message in good humor, with a smiling emoticon. For the record, Dax and Kristen began dating in late 2007 — just 11 years ago. Though the two became engaged in 2010, they held off on getting married. The couple waited until same-sex marriage became legal in California in 2013, in a sign of solidarity with the LGBT+ community. After an important court ruling striking down a key element of the Defense Of Marriage Act, Kristen proposed to Dax on Twitter. They were an item in 2009, but they were not in 2006. Speaking to The Blast , Dax took a more confrontational tone — understandably so — in refuting Kayti’s claims. “This woman is making up the date in order to come up with a story that she can literally sell to the tabloids,” Dax accuses. “She admits to being married, by the way, when this fictitious reconnection happened,” Dax notes. “Making herself adulterous.” “There are a lot holes in this fabricated story,” Dax points out. “Where is the proof of a date of these photos?” he asks. “Who witnessed when this happened?” “What is the name of her friend where this party took place with a photo booth?” Dax demands to know. “Her previous actions and dealings with the press speak for themselves,” he concludes. “And she should be called out for her slanderous actions.” View Slideshow: 29 Stars Who Are Known Cheaters

Deontay Wilder Says Floyd Mayweather Is Jealous Of Him [Video]

Read the original here:

Source: Anadolu Agency / Getty Deontay Wilder is fresh off a draw after his exciting match with Tyson Fury, cementing his place as a fighter to watch in the coming years. Wilder hit back at Floyd Mayweather , who seems to not be a fan of the heavyweight slugger, with the “Bronze Bomber” saying Money is essentially a hater. TMZ Sports reports : We got Wilder out in L.A. just days after he and Tyson Fury put together the most entertaining draw in boxing history and he says, while the world was stoked on the fight, Floyd wasn’t. “They loved it, they loved every bit of it. The world loved it, and I don’t think he liked that though. He wants all the attention on him, and it’s sad that it’s like that.” Deontay’s logic is that he’s a heavyweight, and the big guys are the ones fans REALLY want to see, so it’s just a matter of time before he’s at the top of the sport, and the old guys have to get used to it. When we asked him if he’ll ever make Floyd Mayweather money, he says it’s definitely in the future for him, and once again, seems to take shots at Money. “I’m coming, and it’s a lot of fighters that’s jealous of me for no reason. I’ve never said nothing bad about no one, I’ve always wished them well.” It appears that Mayweather and plenty of others thought Fury should have won the fight despite him being knocked down twice. At any rate, a Wilder and Fury rematch is most certainly primed for the future after their acclaimed match. — Photo: Getty

Lyle Menendez: I Heard O.J. Simpson Confess to Murdering Nicole!

Folks, its ’90s Day on THG and we’re celebrating by remembering the heyday of the Simpsons. No, not Homer and Marge — OJ and Jessica! Hear us out: Earlier today we reported that Jessica Simpson is feuding with Natalie Portman . As if! Now, it’s time to dig out your Doc Martens and tie a flannel shirt around your waist, because yet another Clinton era beef is making headlines. Boo ya! This one concerns two figures who loomed large in the 90s — one largely forgotten, and one still very much a part of the public consciousness. We’re talking, of course, O.J. Simpson and Lyle Menendez. Along with his brother Erik, Menendez was imprisoned for the shotgun murder of his parents in 1994. The brothers were locked up throughout their lengthy trial, so by the time O.J. arrived on the cellblock in June of 1994, the Menendezes were already veterans of the California penal system. According to a new book by Robert Rand entitled  The Menendez Murders , Lyle took O.J. under his wing, and the two of them quickly developed a close friendship. In fact, according to an excerpt from the book published today by Radar Online, O.J. confessed to killing his wife in one of his first conversations with Lyle. Rand claims that while Lyle and O.J. were both waiting for their lawyers in the prison’s “attorney room,” a tearful Simpson admitted to killing Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman after he “snapped in the heat of passion.” “Lyle advised O.J. he should consider taking a plea deal,” Rand tells Radar. “O.J. briefly considered that option – according to Lyle – but later told Menendez he couldn’t do that because it would ruin his reputation and he would never work again.” In his book, Rand writes of Lyle’s recollection of O.J.’s early days behind bars: “The first night was rough. I didn’t see him cry but I believe he was,” Erik recalled, according to Rand. “I could hear him moaning.” Sounds like O.J. wasn’t cut out for life behind bars, so it’s a good thing (for him and absolutely no one else) that Simpson was acquitted , despite having very obviously committed double murder.  Of course, a few years later, he was tossed in the clink for unrelated crimes and spent nearly a decade in prison. Lyle, now 50, has been in jail since the late George H.W. Bush was in office. So justice was served in one case … and, like, sort of served in another. We wouldn’t call it a happy ending, but it’s an ending. Now let us never speak of ’90s Day again. View Slideshow: O.J. Simpson Trial Stars: Where Are They Now?

Kim Porter’s Autopsy Results Revealed As Questions Linger In Model’s Death

Source: Getty Images / Getty F amily and friends of Kim Porter were reportedly planning the model and actress’ funeral just days after her unexpected death last week in California. As her loved ones continued mourning, questions lingered over how exactly the 47-year-old died Thursday. Initial reports pointed to Porter possibly suffering from pneumonia and flu-like symptoms in the days before her death. However, an autopsy performed over the weekend did not reveal any certain cause of death, according to a new report. “The cause of death was deferred pending additional tests,” Sarah Ardalani, spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County office of the medical examiner-coroner, told USA TODAY on Monday. An official determination for what caused Porter to die “may take weeks.” BET News seemed to attribute Porter’s death to the flu, but most of the online reports were hinged on speculation instead of fact in a case that has captured the attention of both ardent and casual fans of the mother of four. Members of Porter’s family offered a glimpse into what happened in the days before her death. “She told me she felt better and that the doctor had been to her house and he gave her an antibiotic,” Porter’s grandmother Lila Mae Star reportedly said  Saturday while recalling a conversation with her granddaughter on Wednesday. Her oldest son, Quincy, described himself in part as “broken.” The New York Daily News reported that Porter’s body may be flown to her hometown of Columbus, Georgia, where her family could hold her funeral. Porter’s mother was reportedly buried in Columbus. Porter was found unresponsive in her California home on Thursday, sending shock waves across social media and especially resonating with fans of Sean “Diddy” Combs, who had a romantic relationship with Porter. The two had three children together, with Diddy raising Quincy with Porter. Diddy posted a message about Porter to his Instagram account, writing, “For the last three days I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare. But I haven’t. I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much. Today I’m going to pay tribute to you, I’m going to try and find the words to explain our unexplainable relationship. We were more than best friends, we were more than soulmates.” SEE ALSO: Jodeci’s ‘Forever My Lady’ Was About Kim Porter See Kim Porter’s Life In Photos [ione_media_gallery src=”https://newsone.com” id=”3769461″ overlay=”true”]

Bride-to-Be Stunned After Future Mother-in-Law Caught Texting Lies

A bride-to-be is begging the internet for advice. After spending what she thought was a nice day buying her wedding dress, she learned that her future mother-in-law is spreading lies about her. Her mother-in-law called the day a “s–t show” and, having been caught, won’t even speak to to the bride. Yikes. Most of Reddit is a cesspool, but sometimes, people looking for advice share some amazing stories. One that really caught on and made the rounds this week concerns a bride-to-be who discovered that her future mother-in-law is a two-faced liar. In a Reddit post that has since been locked (thanks to a salty moderator who didn’t like the story going viral). But we know what the northern California Reddit user who goes by the handle “Bamboo2u” said about her monster-in-law .  She reveals that a few relatives, including her mother and her soon-to-be mother-in-law, traveled up from southern California. They accompanied her while she picked out her wedding dress. “Overall we had a great day and I got the most amazing dress,” she writes. “My mom cried and my fiance’s mom cried … it was special” Before she reveals the backstabbing, she shares some specifics from that day’s conversations. “At lunch my mom told everyone she suggested I keep my maiden name for work only,” she writes. “And take my fiance’s name for personal life.” She shares that this is a specific necessity for her line of owrk. “I have a problem with clients asking to be friends on Facebook and Instagram,” she says. “Which I cannot do because it’s against my work’s rules.” She explains: “I want to keep my personal life private from my work life.” “My fiance’s mom agreed with my mom,” she says. “Because that is what she does for work too.” She was filled with joy and excited for her wedding. Those happy feelings faded when she received a scathing text from her mother-in-law. (Her mother-in-law has been symbolically pictured here as a plant that is sometimes called mother-in-law’s tongue ) You know how you can accidentally message the wrong person, and it just makes you want to curl up into a ball and disappear? Well, it turns out that it’s almost as bad to receive a wrong text  “The text said the whole day was a s–t show,” she writes. “And,” she continues, her future mother-in-law wrote “that my mom advised me to not take my fiance’s name for career reasons.” “I’m so hurt that she would go around spreading lies about my mom,” she says. “She knows that’s not what my mom said.” Obviously, that’s horrifying. What she thought had been a pleasant day turned into a nightmare. She told her fiance and he even confronted his mother. When he asked his mom to apologize, she writes, the woman who will soon be her mother-in-law refused. “Honestly, I’m more worried she is now going around to his family and saying mean things about my mom,” the woman writes. It makes sense to feel more offended on her mother’s behalf. “I’m not sure what to do at this point,” the woman confesses. This is why she went onto Reddit to ask for advice. “I saw my future mother in law the other day and she refused to look at me or even talk to me,” she reveals. All jokes from people who despise their mothers-in-law aside, you don’t really want to not be on speaking terms with your spouse’s mom. “But I’m the kind of person who likes to kill you with kindness,” the woman concludes. “Which seems to drive her crazy.” Some suggest that she go on as she’s doing, but to be on guard that this could happen again. Others think that continuing to be polite will let this woman sweep this matter under the rug — and that she should go to war over it. But good luck for this woman’s wedding.
