LuAnn de Lesseps is finally about to confront her cheating fiancè on The Real Housewives of New York City. It's going to be one of the biggest showdowns in the history of The Real Housewives franchise and we couldn't be more excited for it. Sure, it sucks for LuAnn to be cheated on, but it's best she knows exactly what Tom D'Agostino Jr. is up to behind her back. In the video from the season finale of the Bravo hit, LuAnn calls Tom, with Bethenny in her presence. She confronts him over the phone and it sure seems like he tries to wriggle his way out of it. What was his excuse? He didn't remember. What a horrible way to admit to cheating. Right?! It's bad enough he cheated with a woman in a New York City hotel, but why did he not just admit to it? He knew the net was closing in, so he should have expected nothing less than the cheating being revealed in front of the cameras. LuAnn is understandably not impressed with Tom, but we already know he manages to sweet talk her. The wedding is very much still on, but don't expect Bethenny to be in attendance. Fans of the reality show were quick to point out that Bethenny shouldn't have revealed Tom's deceit to LuAnn while the cameras were rolling. The thing fans seem to forget is that most of what happens on reality TV is manipulated in some way. For all we know, the scene with LuAnn going at it with Tom on the phone could have been filmed after the real argument took place. If you watch The Real Housewives of New York City online , you'll know Bethenny seemed to be using the evidence as a bargaining chip. She tried to keep it from LuAnn for as long as possible and gave out very vague hints. If you recall, she asked LuAnn if she was in an open relationship with Tom just a few weeks ago. LuAnn was furious and noted that she knew Bethenny was up to something. What do you think of the video? Was Bethenny right to reveal it all on camera? Hit the comments below!
Following last night's dramatic season premiere, Matt Baier wants Teen Mom OG viewers to know that he's sick of the scrutiny. Now that the reality hit is back on MTV, Baier and his fiancee, Amber Portwood are doing damage control on his reputation. To which I speak for everyone when I say, “too little, too late.” Still, Portwood will fight for the man she loves. “I think one thing people are going to see is how a lot of the child support cases against him were dropped,” Portwood told Hollywood Life . “They’re going to take a step back and say, ‘Oh wow, maybe I was wrong,'” she said. “Matt doesn’t have that many kids and he was put out there as this horrible person that he isn’t. It completely shocked him.” “I had to try to stick with it and stay with him, and thank God I did or it would have been a mistake, Portwood added. As for the status of their relationship, Portwood says things are terrific, and that everything they've been through made them stronger. Is she trying too hard to convince herself of that? No so, she insists. Although they have delayed their October wedding , the Teen Mom tandem is looking forward to building a future together. “We’re doing great today,” Portwood said. “That’s not Matt today … that wasn’t even him a couple years ago. I don’t want people to think he’s this slimy guy when he’s so amazing.” “I want people to see what I see,” she added. What they see has not been all that impressive so far, but Amber is standing by her man through thick and thin, which does tell you something. The couple went on Dr. Drew's show last night to discuss the rumors that have plagued Baier for the better part of a year now. Namely, the small fact that Matt Baier has seven kids (or eight, or nine, depending on who you ask) that he sired and left behind. As well as his issues with addiction, which are well documented. Oh, and the fact that he tried to bang Farrah Abraham before meeting Amber – a topic that was broached last night on Teen Mom: OG . Guy has a lot of baggage, to say the least. “Yes, I have a lousy past. The proof is bad enough – why make stuff up?” Baier, 44, told Dr. Drew during yesterday's sit-down. Obviously, with a track record like his, there's both a lot of explaining to do, and not a lot of explaining he can do to change minds. He does want to stress one key point, however. “I wasn’t a deadbeat dad ,” he says, but rather, “I was an absentee dad back then, and I think there’s a big difference.” Is there, though? Or is it mere semantics? And even though he has five children – not seven, eight or nine, as some have alleged – he assured viewers that his hands are clean. “I owe zero dollars in child support.” Slow claps for the absentee dad.
BOSSIP Interview With Tori Brixx You’ve probably seen her piercing eyes and bangin’ body dance across your timeline more than a few times, but Tori Brixx is making the leap from Instragram fame to real industry experience. And the transition seem to be going pretty smoothly…it was just announced today that she’s the first woman to be represented by Amber Rose’s new management company: BOSSIP caught up with the model to talk about her new role on Nick Cannon’s Wild ‘N Out and what’s next for her as she tackles acting and her own business ventures… So for those who aren’t familiar with you, tell us a little about who you are: Well I’m Tori Brixx. I’m New to LA, just moved here. I’m from South Carolina and I got into modeling through a photo shoot with a well-known photographer (facet studios). The pics just got really popular, and people asked “who is she?” a lot, so it just went from there. Now, I’ve done work with Fashion Nova, Blac Chyna’s fashion line, and Khloe’s [upcoming] jean line — more like a face/figure for those brands. So you’re on the new season of Wild ‘N Out. How was that experience for you? The energy was so crazy on set! It was very funny, everyone was hilarious. I loved having the the opportunity to work with Nick — he’s such a professional and there was a lot to learn from him. One thing that stood out to me…we prayed before every show and that made me feel much more comfortable. We’d shoot three shows a day, and would meet to pray before each one. But it was also a great experience and wonderful opportunity to meet a lot of new people So what’s up next for you? What projects do you have that you can speak about? Well I’m currently visiting labs for my new lipstick line. I’m so excited to have my own business! Also, Terrence J hooked me up with a great, well known acting coach, so I’m doing sessions there and going on auditions. Now, you’ve gained buzz and popularity through Instagram. How do you feel about being classified as an “IG Model?” I don’t mind coming in through Instagram. Honestly, we’re on out phones/social media more than watching TV! I will say that people who say, “Oh, she’s an ‘IG model’” tend throw you into a box, and categorize you. But, I’m happy to be coming in through that media. It’s just a new time. Clearly IG modeling pays off, because it’s just landed her a contract with Amber Rose’s new management company! Mind you, Amber herself is learning from Nick Cannon , so we’re sure Tori is in great hands: NICE! Hit the flip to see a few of the photos that sent Tori on her way… Instagram
Last week, a preview for the new season of Teen Mom featured a moment that surprised many fans of the long-running MTV reality series. Tyler Baltierra to Catelynn Lowell: You’re Not Ready to Be a Mom! In the clip above, Tyler Baltierra fat-shames Catelynn Lowell , slamming his wife over the size of her meal moments after she stated that she’d like to rejoin Weight Watchers. So it’s not like Catelynn’s weight was a problem and she didn’t realize it. And considering Catelynn went to rehab for emotional issues shortly after the scene was filmed, it’s not like she was in such a stable place that such hurtful comments rolled right off her back. Nevertheless, Tyler is reacting to the situation in the fashion beloved by reality stars who have said something stupid on camera: Basically his response to pissed off fans is, Hey, I know I’ve spent my adult life cashing in on your interest in my personal life, but now that the attention has turned negative, can you stop? On Saturday, Baltierra revealed that he’s in therapy learning how to refrain from making the types of remarks he made, because apparently that’s the sort of thing one has to learn in therapy. Shortly thereafter, however, Baltierra had a message to fans who were upset by his remarks: “When your [sic] with someone for over 10 yrs your [sic] able to speak to each other openly & honestly. That’s how we communicate,” Baltierra tweeted. “We aren’t afraid to hurt each other’s feelings, because we know how strong our love for each other is> ” If that explanation is a bit TL;DR for you, it can basically be summed up as: “STFU, people who made me famous. That’s how I ‘communicate’ with my wife.” We initially thought therapy was a bit of an overreaction, but now we’re thinking Tyler could benefit from working on his communication skills.

Earlier this month, Lindsay Lohan accused her fiance, Egor Tarabasov, of cheating in a bizarre late-night social media rant in which she also hinted that she was carrying his baby. We now know that Lohan is not pregnant – but the situation with Tarabasov is far worse than previously thought. Video that emerged on August 5 showed Lohan and Tarabasov engaged in a physical altercation in public. Lindsay Lohan & Egor Tarabasov: Physical FIGHT Caught on Video! WATCH! The clip seemed to suggest that Lohan was in, at best, a disturbingly unhealthy, unstable relationship. At worst, it appeared to reveal that she’s a victim of domestic abuse. In the midst of the public outcry that followed the video, Lohan announced that she had broken up with Tarabasov . Fans were relieved, as it seemed that after years of self-destructive behavior, the troubled actress was finally acting in her own best interest. Now, however, it seems that reports about Lohan lying about her breakup were accurate, and she is still planning to marry the Russian billionaire. Seemingly as a means of announcing that she and Tarabasov were back on, Lindsay posted this photo of herself wearing the lavish emerald engagement ring with which he proposed: She removed it shortly after the video leaked earlier this month. Lohan gave no explanation for the reconciliation, but several fans expressed concerns about the 30-year-old continuing her relationship with Tarabasov. She’s made no formal announcement, but at this time it seems that Lohan is planning to proceed with her plans to marry Tarabasov. Hopefully those closest to her are monitoring the situation closely.

The Kardashians are famous for being paid oodles of cash to promote a product, but are they playing by the rules (or rather, the law) when it comes to sponsored posts? According to Page Six , a letter from watchdog group Truth In Advertising reportedly sent a letter to momager Kris Jenner’s legal team, warning her that they “have found that members of the Kardashian/Jenner family are engaged in deceptive marketing campaigns .” The group has been meticulously following the Instagram accounts of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, as well as their younger sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, and gathered 27 companies – incluing Puma, Calvin Klein, JetSmarter, Fit Tea, Estée Lauder and Karl Lagerfeld – they were working with. What the group found was “a plethora of posts that do not clearly or conspicuously disclose their relationships with the companies being promoted in the posts as is required by federal law.” The group has informed Jenner that if the issues aren’t “fully corrected” by Wednesday, the family will be reported to the Federal Trade Commission. It’s no secret that the Kardashians have been hawking products since Keeping Up With The Kardashians became wildly popular in 2007, but federal law requires that a company and its participants clearly state that the post is sponsored. “The law is clear and people are not following it, and it’s not being enforced very often,” TINA spokeswoman Bonnie Patten told Page Si x. Social media is becoming the new medium for advertising, and this law is making it even more difficult for a celebrity or person of influence to share a product with followers without being asked, “is this sponsored? Are you being paid to promote this?” The Fashion Law website broke it down for readers, clarifying what constitutes a sponsored post . “Is posting a photo an endorsement? The FTC says yes!” The Fashion Law explains. “A photo is enough to trigger the need to disclose: Simply posting a picture of a product on social media, such as on Pinterest or Instagram, or a video of you using it, could convey that you like and approve of the product. If it does, it’s an endorsement and must be disclosed.” View Slideshow: 14 Times Celebrities Totally Failed on Social Media
Bill Cosby’s Legal Team Just Got One Black Woman Shorter Monique Pressley , the black woman a part of Bill Cosby’s legal team, has decided to call it quits. The Root reported that Pressley is the second attorney to leave the comic’s legal team since he’s been accused of sexually assaulting a number of women. As of now, the reason for her departure is unknown. A couple of months ago, high-powered attorney Monique Pressley helped Bill Cosby into a courtroom. But now it seems as though Pressley has had a change of heart when it comes to representing the man charged with drugging and sexually assaulting a Pennsylvania woman. Earlier this week, Pressley removed herself from Cosby’s legal team, making her the second attorney to do so over the last year. Pressley has not said why she’s dropped Cosby as a client, but needless to say, Cosby hasn’t had a good history when it comes to keeping his legal team intact. Cosby is currently facing criminal charges in Pennsylvania in the sexual assault of Andrea Constand in 2004. Pressley was a key member, often making public appearances to defend her client. This is an obvious blow to his legal team. Image Via FameFlyNet
Tyler Baltierra has told fans that he is in therapy after making comments about what his wife , Catelynn Lowell was eating in a preview for the new season of Teen Mom OG. What’s different about Baltierra’s delivery is that we know he doesn’t mean any harm, since his relationship with Lowell is the kind that most people would kill for. It all started in a preview for the August 22nd premiere, when Catelynn said that she might start up Weight Watchers again. Baltierra was the adorablly clueless husband who thought that straightforward questions wouldn’t translate into a hidden message, and asked if the portion size she was eating adhered to Weight Watchers standards. Then Baltierra joked about not wanting a “hiefer” for a wife, and the producer off-camera gently teased him to not make fun of a woman’s eating habits. Tyler Baltierra: Fat-Shaming Catelynn Lowell in New Teen Mom Preview? Baltierra is friggin’ adorable and therefore gets a pass when it comes to almost anything (almost). And yet, he admitted to fans on August 19th that he was going through therapy to work on his delivery. “Currently in therapy to work on my delivery of messages & opinions. Yes I know I’m a prick but I admit it instead of defend it #ImAnAsshole,” he tweeted. I think I speak for everyone when I say that Baltierra is NOT an asshole, he’s just a lovely guy who might have said the wrong thing to his lady love. What man hasn’t done this? Unlike a lot of the other Teen Moms baby daddies, Baltierra’s fanbase was a lot more supportive of Novalee’s dad than, perhaps because Baltierra’s true colors as a kind, honest and compassionate father and partner have shone through over the years. Lowell went to rehab in March to deal with post natal depression and other mental health issues, with Baltierra supported 100%. “Still, definitely admiral of you 2 work things out in therapy 2 continue 2B the awesome husband you are for,” one Twitter fan wrote after the clip aired. Teen Mom OG returns to MTV at 9 p.m. on August 22nd. View Slideshow: Teen Mom Season 6 Previews: So Much Drama For the OG Mamas!
