Bethenny Frankel and Eric Stonestreet: Totally Random Couple Alert!

Posted on July 14, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Bethenny Frankel recently insulted Jewish people on Twitter . But the reality star has apparently been saying only nice things to Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet… because the celebrities are dating! For real! [ UPDATE : In response to this rumor, Frankel has Tweeted: “Wow #somanyboyfriendssolittletime. How did I manage to be at a @Dodgers game & be in the Hamptons at the same time?!!! @ericstonestreet.”] E! News has learned that Real Housewives of New York City veteran has a new beau and the actor behind Cameron on this ABC comedy have been together for a few months now. The stars were all smiles by each other’s sides while attending the 2015 CAA Upfronts Celebration Party in The Big Apple in May; and were also seen out and about together later that same month. Stonestreet shared a picture at the time with Frankel and her fellow Real Housewife, Carole Radziwill, writing as a caption “Took a picture of these 2 randos today.” But we guess one of them wasn’t so “rando” after all. Frankel has gone through a public and bitter divorce from Jason Hoppy and has been linked to many men since then, even writing on Twitter at one point: “I can’t wait to find out who my new boyfriend is today. Guesses? Yours is as good as mine.” We’ll give Frankel and Stonestreet a little while longer to prove their love, but safe to say they are a contender to be included among the Weirdest Celebrity Couples of All-Time, don’t you agree?

Kylie Jenner Feuds with Amandla Steinberg Over Cornrows

Posted on July 13, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kylie Jenner may be fully dressed (for once!) in a new Instagram photo. But the 17-year old has still managed to stir up controversy with it. Jenner took to her social media site on Saturday morning, snapped a selfie at a photo shoot and wrote as a caption “I woke up like disss.” The problem with the photo, according to at least one celebrity? Kylie is rocking cornrows in it. Wrote Hunger Games actress Amandla Steinberg in response to Kylie’s look: “@novemberskyys when u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter.” Kylie’s sister, Kendall Jenner , came under fire in April of 2014 when Marie Claire also dressed the young star in cornrows and described the look as “epic” and “bold,” as if Kendall and that magazine had just invented it.  Marie Claire went on to apologize for the incident. “@amandlastenberg Mad if I don’t, Mad if I do…. Go hang w Jaden or something,” Kylie shot back in response this weekend. Stenberg, of course, took Jenner’s longtime friends and once rumored boy friend, Jaden Smith, to the prom back in May. So there may have been some tension between these two long before Kylie did up her hair in the unique style depicted above. Stenberg, meanwhile, has been critical of other celebrities in a similar regard as she is here. Earlier this year, the young actress took Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry to task for stealing black culture. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Instagram Photos: A Racy Rundown

Satoru Iwata, President of Nintendo, Dies at 55

Posted on July 13, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The games have sadly come to an end for Satoru Iwata. The President and CEO of Nintendo, who helped millions of people around the world enjoy their youth just a little more, passed away from bile duct growth, according to multiple reports. He was 55 years old. In a simple statement announcing the news, Nintendo wrote last night: “Nintendo Co., Ltd. deeply regrets to announce that President Satoru Iwata passed away on July 11, 2015 due to a bile duct growth.” Iwata took some time off in 2014 health reasons and had surgery to remove a tumor, returning later in the year. Iwata took charge at Nintendo in 2002, becoming just the company’s fourth president since its founding in 1889. He was the rare corporate presence who got his start as a game programmer, joining HAL Laboratory right out of college and working on such classics as Balloon Fight. Under Iwata’s watch, the company launched Nintendo DS and Wii. He also became a popular figure due to appearances in the company’s Nintendo Direct broadcasts and his “Iwata Asks” series of interviews with developers. Nintendo is yet to name a successor.

Posted on July 12, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Roger Rees, a long-time theater and television actor best known for roles on Cheer and The West Wing, passed away on Friday night. He was 71 years old. Most dedicated to professional life on the stage, Rees left his latest Broadway musical (The Visit) to undergo some kind of medical procedure. His representative confirmed to The Associated Press that Rees died at his home in New York after a brief illness. The veteran star won a Tony Award for his role Nicholas Nickleby; and also an Emmy Award when the production was adapted for the small screen. Rees also appeared in performances of The Addams Family, The Red Shoes and The Winslow Boy. On television, he’s best remembered for appearing as Robin Colcord for five years on Cheers and as British Ambassador Lord John Marbury on The West Wing for six years. “Brilliant actor, dear friend and colleague, witty, kind, private man, Roger Rees died this morning. A space is left that cannot be filled,” wrote Patrick Stewart on Twitter in the wake of this sad news. View Slideshow: Celebrities We Lost in 2015

21 Stars Who Are Really, Really, Really Sorry!

Posted on July 11, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

So… are you buying it? Are you buying what these actors, singers and athletes are selling? Over the years, a number of celebrities have messed up and these same celebrities have issued supposedly heartfelt apologies in response to these scandals. We've collected some of the most memorable mea culpas below and we want to know: Who do you believe most? 1. Ariana Grande Ariana Grande is VERY sorry for slamming America while inside a California donut shop. She issues a mea culpa in this video. 2. Kobe Bryant Kobe Bryant immediately addressed sexual assault charges in 2003. Seated alongside wife Vanessa, he tearfully said he was guilty of adultery, not rape. 3. John Mayer John Mayer told Playboy in 2010 that he gets a “n-gger pass” because African-Americans like him. He apologized via Twitter with: “It was arrogant of me to think I could intellectualize using it, because I realize that there’s no intellectualizing a word that is so emotionally charged.” 4. Christian Bale Christian Bale was caught on tape, exploding during the filming of Terminator: Salvation. But he called himself a “punk” during an apologetic radio show appearance and admitted he was “way out of order.” 5. Kanye West It took awhile, but Kanye West finally admitted that interrupting Taylor Swift at the MTV Music Awards was “very rude, period.” 6. Michael Richards Most awkward apology ever? It was bad enough when Michael Richards dropped the N Word while performing a comedy routine. But then he apologize via satellite while friend Jerry Seinfeld appeared on The Late Show.

Christian Audigier Dies; Ed Hardy Designer Was 57

Posted on July 10, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Christian Audigier – the designer best known for his work with the Ed Hardy and Von Dutch labels – has passed away at the age of 57. Audigier had been battling bone cancer since 2012. Despite his illness, however, friends and co-workers say that because he remained so vibrant and ambitious in his final years, they often forgot he was sick, and his death came as something of a shock. Audigier’s friend and longtime publicist Michele Elyzabeth issued a statement reading, “I just heard the news and I am truly devastated. Christian was an incredibly brilliant man. He will be missed.” The Ed Hardy label and its signature line of t-shirts became wildly popular in the late 2000’s and early ’10s.  So much so that in 2011, Audigier was able to sell the brand for $62 million and stay on as its chief designer. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, Audigier began to show signs of illness. In 2012, he revealed that he was suffering from MDS, the same year that Good Morning America co-anchor Robin Roberts was diagnosed with the disease . The years that followed held many ups and downs, and there were times when it looked as though Audigier would beat the disease. Fortunately, in addition to his iconic work in the fashion industry, Audigier leaves behind as his legacy the awareness and millions of dollars he helped raise for MDS and cancer patients.

15 Surprising Celebrities in 2015: Who Saw These "Stars" Coming?

Posted on July 9, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We're living in the Internet and social media age. As a result, anyone can become famous. Even Kim Kardashian ! And even… a couple of llamas? Or a hot-debated fancy dress? Or a woman who claimed for many years that she's African-American? 2015 has been filled with a new kind of celebrity, the kind who never would have been discussed if not for this whole World Wide Web thing. We rundown some of these surprising new stars below: 1. Katy Perry’s Left Shark Katy Perry put on a fun Super Bowl halftime show. But all anyone wanted to talk about the next day was how one shark appeared not to have remembered the choreography. 2. Rachel Dolezal Rachel Dolezal lied for many years about her race. Turns out, she is NOT Rachel Dolezal. She’s no longer the President of an NAACP chapter in Spokane, either. 3. These Two Llamas When a pair of llamas escaped from captivity in Arizona and sprinted around the street, America was kept glued to its computer screens and its TV screens. 4. THE Dress Oh God, not this again. Is this dress blue or white? The viral debate may never be settled. 5. Toya Graham Toya Graham went viral after she stepped in and pulled her son — who jumping in to the Freddie Gray Baltimore riots in April — away from a crowd before things got violent, telling a local CBS affilate at the time: “Is he the perfect boy? No, he’s not! But he’s mine.” 6. Eclipse the Dog A black lab/mastiff named Eclipse took the Internet by storm in January when we learned he sometimes ride the bus along to the park. You must watch this adorable video for more. View Slideshow

Trina to Khloe Kardashian: Enjoy My Sloppy Seconds!

Posted on July 6, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s looking more and more as if  Khloe Kardashian is dating James Harden . Following rumors of these celebrities getting it on, Khloe and Harden were spotted on a date in Las Vegas on Saturday night (footage below), getting all close and cozy before attending a Chris Brown concert together. But while some folks may be applauding Khloe for finally moving on from Lamar Odom, Trina is not among these folks. Khloe Kardashian and James Harden: Spotted in Vegas! In a single released last September, the rapper blasted Kardashian as a bitch because Khloe started dating French Montana at the same time Montana was living with Trina. And now Trina is back at it again. By coincidence (we assume it’s a coincidence), the artist also previously dated Harden, giving her some easy ammunition against Kardashian in a Tweet Trina sent out over the weekend. “Sloppy seconds….” Trina wrote, adding a vomit emoji to the end of her message. “Trina thinks it is funny that Khloe was hanging out with James Harden, another of her exes,” an insider tells Us Weekly, though this source cautions: “Khloe and James are not officially dating and are just friends hooking up.” We somehow doubt that makes things any better from Trina’s point of view.

Awesomely Insane Woman Rails Against Gay Marriage

Posted on July 2, 2015 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The totally insane woman in this video has a question for anyone celebrating the legalization of gay marriage : Are you a Christian? Actually, sorry. Let us do a better impression of the totally insane woman in this video. She's really asking: ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN?!?!?!?!?!?!? We hate to help turn Indiana native Becky Wegner Rommel into a viral sensation, but some videos are too amazing not to share… even when those videos are filled with hate and maniacal ranting. Rommel is entitled to her opinion on gay marriage, of course, but she goes off in this footage (which she uploaded to Facebook) about Islamic “Extremlists” (that’s not a misspelling on our part), while decreeing over and over that “five justices decided God was wrong.” She also has strong takes on abortion and how God did on a cross for the “very people who are spitting on His face right now” and on how disappointing the Founding Fathers must be in this Supreme Court decision. Becky ends by begging her fellow Christians to take a stand. It's safe to say someone does not believe love won last week. This poor woman.
