Kylie Jenner: Stormi Webster Photo Most-Liked in Instagram History

As pretty much everyone on the planet knows at this point, Kylie Jenner gave birth to her baby girl . On Sunday, she shared that beautiful news with her fans. On Tuesday, Kylie revealed her daughter’s name on Instagram. That post is now the most-liked photo on Instagram. Which means that Kylie just beat Beyonce . Let that sink in. Yes, Kylie’s daughter is named Stormi Webster. (Yes, whatever jokes just came to your mind, Twitter’s comments on Stormi Webster have them covered) Kylie revealed her sweet little baby’s first name in the captions of her Instagram post, accompanied by this photo. She later edited that caption to reveal Stormi’s last name . Some fans were surprised, thinking that Stormi’s last name would either be Jenner like her mother’s or Scott for Travis Scott, the baby daddy. But Travis Scott is just a stage name — Jacques Webster is his real name. So his daughter’s name is Stormi Webster. With a post this popular, any screenshot is out of date within seconds. That is already beyond the 11,242,823 likes that Beyonce’s pregnancy announcement photo had when that screenshot was taken. The gap isn’t narrow — it’s by the millions, and growing with every moment that passes. Beyonce is one of the biggest stars in the world and she was pregnant with twins. How, some wonder, did Kylie outpace her so quickly in Instagram likes? Part of that, of course, is that Kylie withheld new material for months and months and months. Fans were starving, and suddenly blessed with a cute baby photo. The other part is that, quite frankly, Kylie’s demographic is youth-oriented and it’s Kylie’s core fans who are most likely to be active on Instagram. Yes, even more likely than Beyonce’s core fans who are really only a few years older. We still haven’t gotten a full photo of sweet baby Stormi. Although Kylie has spent half of her life in the spotlight and is therefore extra sensitive to the burdens of fame, she’s not likely to keep Stormi hidden away forever. Instead, Kylie will probably share a real baby photo when she feels that the time is right. (Or maybe when Stormi looks up to it — sometimes, newborns are born covered in baby acne or otherwise need a few days to … well, cool off after being in the oven, so to speak) The question is … will that inevitable picture get more likes than this one? Honestly? Who knows. And though branding is almost second nature to Kylie, we suspect that this isn’t really on her mind. She’s reportedly eager to get back to her regular life — except, you know, she’s a mom now, so even with all of the paid help in the world, her life will never be the same again. On some level, though, she’ll always be preoccupied with her daughter. We don’t just mean now, when Stormi is a newborn and most likely to need her. Parents remain preoccupied with thoughts of their children … well, for life. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Gives Birth, Reveals Shocking Pregnancy Secrets & Photos

Mickey Jones Dies; Home Improvement Actor Was 76

Mickey Jones, the beloved character actor who amassed more than 100 credits over the course of his career has passed away at the age of 76. A statement from Jones’ family indicates that he had been battling an illness that resulted in several hospitalizations in recent months. The statement did not offer any specifics regarding the nature of the illness. While Jones’ name may not be familiar, if you’re a film and television fan, you’re almost certainly familiar with his face. He belongs to the class of character actors so instantly recognizable that they’re known to elicit shouts of “that guy!” from audiences. Jones’ imposing size, signature beard, and tremendous versatility made him an intimidating presence in crime dramas and an unexpected source of laughs in lighthearted comedies. While it might be his role as Tim Allen’s rugged, yet unexpectedly sensitive friend Pete Bilker on Home Improvement for which Jones is best remembered, the gentle giant left his mark on countless esteemed projects over the years. In addition to his work on such iconic television shows as MASH, Entourage , and Bones , Jones turned in memorable performances in such films as Total Recall, Sling Blade , and Tin Cup . Prior to his acting career, Jones made a name for himself as a drummer for various high-profile rock and roll acts. Before making the switch to Hollywood, he backed such legends as Kenny Rogers and Bob Dylan. In 2009, Jones published a memoir entitled  That Would Be Me . The title was taken from his Home Improvement character’s signature catchphrase. Thousands of tributes to Jones have been pouring in on social media since his death was announced Wednesday afternoon. It’s a testament to the length and diversity of his career that he’s being remembered by film and television fans from various generations, and for projects as varied as Baywatch and It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia .  Mickey Jones is survived by his wife, Phyllis Jean Starr, and their two children. Our thoughts go out to his loved ones during this difficult time. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

Ben Affleck’s Dad: It’s Not His Fault My Boy’s a Boozer!

Back in 2016, Ben Affleck appeared on Bill Simmons’ short-lived HBO show and screamed about his love for Tom Brady in what appeared to be a drunken tirade. At the time, the unhinged rant was mostly laughed off, and it was only later that the world learned that Affleck was battling alcoholism and was in the depths of his addiction at the time of the interview. As you’ve no doubt heard, Ben’s beloved Patriots lost to the underdog Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LII on Sunday. As the world marveled at Eagles’ fans willingness to lay waste to their own city, many wondered how Ben – arguably the most famous Pats fan and a close friend of Tom Brady’s – was handling the news. Back in December, Affleck checked into rehab for the third time in less than a year. These days, he’s out of treatment and reportedly sober, but after falling off the wagon so many times, Ben is no doubt aware that alcoholism is a lifelong battle. Ben’s father, Tim Affleck, has also struggled with addiction and earlier this week he opened up about his son’s struggles in a candid interview with Radar Online. It seems the elder Affleck believes his son’s struggles are mainly the result of the career he chose. “Hollywood is a disgusting place!” Tim told the outlet . “I’m not a big fan of the entertainment world. I know it’s taken its toll [on Ben].” Tim says he’s witnessed some major changes in his son’s character over the course of his decades in the industry. “You’re kind of forced to develop a persona that is hard to shed and go home to your family,” Tim says. “It affects your whole life. I think that’s one of the dangers of the film industry.” Ben has spoken at length about his father’s alcoholism and the ways in which it affected his childhood. “I know what he’s going through,” says Tim, who’s been sober 27 years. “Of course we speak about it, and we do have a shared history, at least in terms of struggle. Ben’s always been serious about getting sober. He wants a balanced life and he’s working at it.” Tim believes his son has what it takes to remain sober, but believes Ben may be too reliant upon the women in his life. “I don’t necessarily believe one person should be with someone forever,” Tim says. “Some people might, but history has proven it often doesn’t work.” Affleck has been dating Lindsay Shookus since the summer of 2017. We’re guessing she’s not thrilled with his dad’s latest comments. View Slideshow: 25 Celebrities Who Have Been to Rehab

Prince Fans Destroy Justin Timberlake for Halftime "Tribute"

Justin Timberlake performed a medley of his most beloved hits at halftime of Super Bowl 52. Did you catch the dance-filled act? Relive it HERE if not. The 13-plus minute performance featured Timberlake belting out such hits as “Can't Stop This Feeling” and “Gone,” but the focus a day later is on the minute or two during which he sat at a piano and played a cover of Prince's “I Would Die 4 U.” What a nice tribute to the late musician, who made his home in the Super Bowl host city of Minnesota, right? WRONG, many Prince fans are now saying. So very, very, very, VERY wrong. Scroll down and all around to find out why:  1. May He Rest in Peace Prince, of course, died in April of 2016. He was famous for his Minneosta mansion and he performed at halftime of the Super Bowl in 2007, leaving many to assume Timberlake would cover a song of his this year. 2. NO HOLOGRAM, JT! A song would have been great, but this is where the controversy started, with talk that Timberlake would sing alongside a Prince hologram during his act. Many years ago, Prince said the following about the use of such a device: “That’s the most demonic thing imaginable. Everything is as it is, and it should be. If I was meant to jam with Duke Ellington, we would have lived in the same age. That whole virtual reality thing… it really is demonic. And I am not a demon.” 3. Easy, Folks Long-time Prince friend Shiela E. said prior to the show that rumors of Timberlake using a hologram were false. She assured everyone this would NOT take place. 4. Okay, Phew Social media users felt a lot better after reading the message. 5. And She Was Sort of Right Check out the above photo. It’s not a hologram. It’s just a projection of Prince of a giant screen. But try parsing that difference to loyal Prince supporters, who were far from happy about Timberlake’s stunt. 6. Did This Count as a Hologram? Yes, it might as well have in the eyes of critics who took to Twitter and blasted Timberlake. View Slideshow

Chicago West: First Adorable Photos!

Nick Foles may have outshined Tom Brady while winning MVP honors in Super Bowl 52… … but the Eagles quarterback was unable to steal the headlines on Sunday from two people who didn’t play a single down in the big game. Wouldn’t you know that Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian would find a way to dominate the headlines?!? Jenner, of course, did so by giving birth to her first child. Following months of secrecy, the 20-year old welcomed a baby girl over the weekend , releasing a statement shortly afterward that explained why she had remained out of the spotlight during her pregnancy. “I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a lifetime in the most positive, stress free, and healthy way I knew how,” Kylie said via statement, adding on Sunday: “I appreciate my friends and especially my family for helping me make this special moment as private as we could… “I’ve never felt love and happiness like this; I could burst!” To make up for how little she shared with the public during her journey to motherhood, Kylie posted a lengthy video online that depicted her baby bump in various stages, along with something else… Kylie Jenner Video Shows Baby Girl, Chicago West, and More! … glimpses of Chicago West! That’s right, fans were unexpectedly treated to a few looks at Kim and Kanye West’s third child via the footage above, as Kylie’s family members visited her in the hospital prior to her own baby’s arrival. For example, Rob stopped by with daughter Dream, who adorably touched the head of her cousin at one point. You can see what we mean here: Kim – who has not yet shared any pictures of her daughter on social media or sold any to supermarket tabloids (yet) – also allowed little Chicago to be filmed for this special video. The child was born via surrogate last month because Kardashian has a health complication that would have made another pregnancy very dangerous. Kim and Kanye were right in the delivery room when Chicago entered the world at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Check out this cute snapshot of mother and new child: “She’s here!” Kardashian declared in extra-large type on her Twitter account shortly after the blessed event took place, adding at the time: “We’re so in love… “We are incredibly grateful to our surrogate who made our dreams come true with the greatest gift one could give and to our wonderful doctors and nurses for their special care.” At another point in her video to fans, Jenner is seen cradling her niece in her arms, preparing for the many days and nights in which she’ll be doing the same with her own little girl. (Kylie is yet to announce her daughter’s name.) It certainly looks like Chicago West is very well loved, doesn’t it? She’ll soon have even more company, too, as Khloe Kardashian is pregnant and expecting her first child at some point in the next month or so. How crazy is all of this?!? Just when you think the Kardashians-Jenners are out of ways to make news, just when you think that the Eagles finally winning a Super Bowl would be all anyone wants to talk about… … bam! Kim, Kylie and, in due time, Khloe make it as clear as ever: This is their universe. We should just be grateful that they allow us to reside in it. (Also: Congrats to Kylie and Kim! We’re so very happy for them!) View Slideshow: The Kardashians Confess: 15 Things You Didn’t Know About Us

Jill Duggar: Latest Photos of Baby Samuel Spark Debate

Jill Duggar’s parenting has become a subject of great interest amongst the Duggar faithful in recent months. Typically, when Jill posts a new photo of her children, the response from fans goes something like this: The first comments consist mainly of fawning praise for her skills as a mother and compliments about how cute her kids are. Then the haters and mom-shamers come out in force. Whether Jill is putting a tortilla on her son’s head as a hat or seeming to favor one child over another, her followers are always quick to let her know they disapprove. Sometimes, their concerns are legitimate (Derick allowing his infant son to play with a plastic water bottle was a recent parenting low-light.), but more often the goal seems to be to shame Jessa into believing she’s an unfit mother. Fortunately, Jill’s latest pic attracted a far more innocuous form of criticism: That’s Samuel with his aunt Johannah Duggar. The pic attracted hundreds of comments within minutes of going live, and for once the debate had nothing to do with Jill’s parenting skills” “He is too cute!! He looks a lot like Jessa to me!” wrote one fan. Believe it or not, this comment sparked a heated debate about which Duggar Samuel most closely resembles. Not only did fans pick apart Samuel’s appearance in an effort to figure out which of his aunts and uncles the baby most closely resembles, they subjected Johannah to the same treatment. “Johannah is so grown up, I think she looks like a mix of Joy-Anna and Jessa,” “Wow, she looks just like Joy at that age!” “She looks just like Josh,” Interestingly, 12-year-old Johannah is now the second-oldest Duggar girl who still lives at home with her parents – but it’s by a pretty sizable margin. (Jana Duggar, 28, is the oldest.) Of course, it wouldn’t be a Duggar social media post if there wasn’t some harsh criticism and pointed questioning, as well. “Where is Israel? Y’all haven’t posted a picture of him in a while….and y’all didn’t take him to Texas with you last week? Hope he’s ok!”  wrote one fan. Another seized the opportunity to bring up the Josh Duggar sex scandals, writing: “Were Jill, Jessa, Jinger, and Joy NOT abused by Josh? YES they were. Multiple times. And religious indoctrination IS abuse. So is blanket training. What you see on tv is all scripted and rehearsed.” Just another day in the life of reality TV’s most controversial family. Watch Counting On online to join the debate. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos

Kim Cattrall: Brother Christopher Cattrall Dead at 55

Even though Kim Cattrall is done with Sex and the City , her role as the infamous Samantha won her countless fans all over the world. It was to those same fans that Kim turned for help over the weekend, when her brother, Chris Cattrall, went missing. Sadly, Kim Cattrall has now had the grim task of sharing that her brother has passed away at 55. Over the weekend, beloved Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall shared this heartfelt plea: “MISSING! This is my brother Christopher Cattrall or Chris as we call him. He has been missing since Tuesday, January the 30th from his home in Lacombe, Alberta Canada.” It sounds like she and her family had hoped that police in Alberta could find her brother quietly without her having to embarrass him publicly. But she had reason to be worried. “His keys, cell phone,& wallet left on the table and his front door unlocked. This is not like Chris. He he would never leave his unlocked home without those items nor his 7 beloved dogs.” After that alarming description, Kim provides a physical description to match the photo. “Chris is 55 years old, 6 feet tall, 200 pounds, blue eyes, short brown hair, goatee, average build & usually wearing a waist length hooded winter coat with black gloves, blue jeans and calf high black winter boots.” Of course, if he didn’t have his wallet, phone, or keys with him, it’s hard to tell what he might be wearing or not wearing. “If you’ve seen Chris contact Blackfalds RCMP at 403 885 3300 He’s a one of a kind brother. Help us bring him home safe. Please spread the world. Many thanks for reading this. Kim.” Fans rushed to spread the news. Unfortunately, desperate searches for loved ones often end in tragedy. On Sunday night, Kim posted this grim update: “It is with great sadness that myself and my family announce the unexpected passing of our son and brother, Chris Cattrall.” Oh, that is several kinds of heartbreaking. If you’ve ever lost a sibling, you know how devastating that can be. Quite frankly, even if you haven’t, you can probably imagine what she must be going through. What her entire family must be going through. Kim Cattrall’s difficult message continues: “At this time we ask for privacy.” Of course. Naturally, everyone has questions … but she and her family will share what they know when they can. In the mean time, nobody needs to be photographed crying in their living room. She also thanks fans. “We want to thank you all on social media for your outpouring of love and support in this trying time.” Royal Canadian Mounted Police spokesperson Corporal Chris Warren did confim that Chris Cattrall was found, deceased, on his property on Sunday. Naturally, they’re still investigating, but it doesn’t sound like they suspect foul play. The truth may be mundane or embarrassing, but no matter what the police find to be the cause of death, this is a tragic story. Our hearts go out to Kim Cattall and her family in this trying time.

Khloe Kardashian & Lamar Odom Make Nice Over Rasual Butler Death

Recently, things between Khloe Kardashian and her ex, Lamar Odom, haven’t exactly been ideal. To the point where Lamar threw shade at Khloe that was so unkind that he got slammed by Kim . But then, an unthinkable tragedy struck them both. Sometimes, shared grief brings people together to make peace. It’s important to remember what really matters. Not everyone gets along with their exes. For Khloe and Lamar, things are … more complicated. Though their divorce was already well underway, when Lamar had his health crisis a few years ago, Khloe dropped everything to be by his side. That included stalling their divorce process so that Khloe could continue to make decisions for Lamar until he was able to speak for himself. (Most wives wouldn’t exactly slow down a divorce after their husband visits a brothel, but these were … special circumstances) Fastforward to 2018, however, and though Lamar himself made a profound recovery, his relationship with Khloe has soured significantly. As we all know, Khloe Kardashian is pregnant with Tristan Thompson’s baby. Lamar was asked about it, and though he started off politely enough, he decided to make what sounded like an underhanded jab at his ex. “I’m happy for her,” he said at the time. “She took good care of me. She’ll be a good mother, for real. She’s a great woman.” However, after acknowledging that he still has Khloe’s initials tattooed on his body (from when they got married), he goes out of his way to clarify that he’s not pining after her. He just hasn’t gotten around to getting the tattoo removed. “I understand when it’s over, it’s over. When she was with her second or third NBA ball player, I could see that.” Naturally, that bit of unpleasantness was what got Kim Kardashian to threaten to ruin Lamar Odom if he comes after Khloe again. On Wednesday morning, Rasual Butler and his wife, Leah LaBelle, died in a one-car wreck in Studio City. Rasual was a former NBA player. Leah was a contestant on American Idol in 2004. It appears that the car, a Range Rover, somehow spun out of control, resulting in the deadly crash. Many friends of the pair are in mourning over this devastating loss. RadarOnline reports that they have learned that Khloe and Lamar buried the hatchet while both mourning the loss of their friend. Rasual had actually appeared on Khloe & Lamar back in the day, when he was dating Malika Haqq. A source close to Lamar reported that: “Lamar is crushed about Rasual’s death, and it was shocking for Khloe, too.” And the tragic situation caused the exes to contact each other. “Khloe and Lamar talked after they heard about Rasual’s death. ” And the source sheds a little insight over how the two of them are feeling. “She told him that she was so sad about the accident. And he is numb.” Different people respond to sudden horrible news in different ways. Let’s be clear — this story in no way suggests that Khloe and Lamar are rekindling romantic feelings for each other. But it’s good and healthy for exes like these two to be able to communicate in an honest way. This sadness strikes at them both. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Pregnant: What Do We Know?

Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry: Spotted! Making Out!!!!!

Into whom Robert Pattinson may or may not be sticking his penis these days is a matter of national debate and discussion. According to a recent rumor, the British actor is dating Emma Watson , making the dreams of all Harry Potter and Twilight Saga fans into a stunning and incredible reality. And, trust us, we’d love to believe this story. We get giddy at the mere thought of Watson and Pattinson procreating beautiful, intelligent children with really cool accents. But we never really bought this chatter. It has been clear, however, that Pattinson and Katy Perry have a tight bond. Neither has been especially tight-lipped about their friendship, with sources claiming Perry was psyched to swoop in and comfort Pattinson after he split from FKA Twigs last fall. Now, however, comes seemingly legitimate evidence that something romantic is brewing between the artist and the actor. According to Life & Style insiders, Pattinson and Perry were spotted on January 26 inside Los Angeles restaurant Taix. And a witness tells this tabloid that the stars didn’t act like two people who had NOT seen each other naked. “They sat in the corner and were drinking a lot,” an onlooker alleges, adding that the celebrities were all over each other and making out. Whoa there, right?!? We added the bold above for emphasis. Because this is a pretty big deal if true. “They came in together really late and stayed until 2 a.m.” this report continues, with another witness saying Robert and Katy were on hand with a group of friends and: “They really blended in. People didn’t even recognize them!” Rumors of a romance between the singer and the stud muffin first went viral in August of last year. And why not, right? At the time, there were numerous sightings of the superstars together; both were either single or on breaks from a significant other; and both are very attractive. You don’t need much more than that for celebrity gossip sites to start writing. Pattinson, of course, most famous dated Kristen Stewart, prior to getting together with FKA Twigs and even getting engaged to her. Perry, meanwhile, has dated her fair share of famous men, most notably Russell Brand and Orlando Bloom. About a month ago, a source told People Magazine that Bloom and Perry were most decidedly not back together, while also acknowledging that they “will continue to see each other when their schedules allow it.” Which is fine and dandy and which doesn’t discredit the article here at all. It’s not like we’re saying Pattinson and Perry are getting married or anything. Just that they are, at the very least, swapping spit; and, most likely, bodily fluids. We’re talking about sex, readers. Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry are probably having sex.
