Kelly found a way to post his $100,000 bail Monday night and we now know who it was that came to his broke a$$ aid. According to DailyMail , the woman’s name is Valencia P. Love and she is the owner of several Chicago restaurants in addition to the Lord And Child Daycare on the south side. Love is a long-time friend of R. Kelly’s. Despite the fact that this woman has made it her business to care for children professionally, she still hopped in a phone booth to tie on a cape to help a man accused of sexually abusing young girls. Chicago’s Fox32 reporter Tia A. Ewing spoke to Valencia to ask why she assisted such a man. The notes from their conversation were posted on Twitter: #RKelly ’s friend that bailed him out breaks her silence. I spoke with Valencia P. Love for 14 minutes. She says the singer isn’t broke and she didn’t use her $100,000 for Kelly to bounce from the county. Here are notes from our conversation by phone. @fox32news pic.twitter.com/CvTblkyT2j — Tia A.

A Wisconsin teacher was recently placed on administrative leave after he allegedly ripped several braids from an 11-year-old student’s scalp. According to WISC-TV , the young girl’s mother, Mikiea Price, claims the assault happened on Feb. 13 by the hands of Madison Metropolitan School District’s acting principal and positive behavior support coach Rob Mueller-Owens. Price states that the incident happened when Mueller-Owens got upset when her daughter and a friend that sprayed some perfume in class. When the girls did not listen to him to stop, they were instructed to leave the class. “When he came in, he asked (my daughter) to step out and she didn’t listen, and didn’t step out and as he walked toward her, she said she went toward the window and just wasn’t following direction, and he told her in front of the whole class, to the teacher, ‘Take the class somewhere else,’” Price told Madison365 . “And (my daughter) said, ‘No, that’s fine. They can stay, I’ll go.’ As the girl was walking out of the classroom, Price said, Mueller-Owens began pushing her out. Soon after, she fell into a row of lockers, where the teacher lost his balance and fell on top of her. It’s believed that somewhere in this scuffle, three of her braids got ripped out. The incident was caught on tape and is currently being reviewed by the Madison police and the school district. The video has yet to be released to the public. A Madison teacher is on leave after a student said he pushed her and pulled out three of her braids (In the photo you can see where those used to be). I spoke with her mom today, who said her daughter is still traumatized and has not been able to return to school. #News3Now pic.twitter.com/iASs6UtZt8 — Amy Reid (@amyreidreports) February 21, 2019 Price, who is also a substitute teacher, says she was never called by the school after the incident and that her daughter never received any medical attention at school. Now, her child is too afraid to come back to class. “Just the whole experience is just traumatic and devastating and just confusing,” Price told WISC-TV. She added, “I’m just disgusted at this whole incident. You know I send my kid to school to learn, and that’s a place where mothers send their kids to be comfortable in. I just feel violated in so many ways that … this even happened to her.” Price is also disappointed because Mueller-Owen is an expert on restorative discipline practices, which focuses on getting to the root of behavioral problems with positive techniques. “That’s the devastating part about it,” Price said. “That’s the disgusting part about it. To have that much education and that much training and that much knowledge, to be certified with kids and not follow protocol, I think that’s the part that hurt me the most and disappointed me the most.” The Madison Metropolitan School District released the following statement: “As a District, we take any situation of this nature very seriously. All of our students need to be safe and supported in school, and we have a thorough investigation process and protocol that we follow. While we cannot talk about the details of a specific student or personnel situation, it is our responsibility to consider all of the facts of the situation and determine the right next steps. The staff person was put on leave while the situation was investigated. Based on that investigation, the staff person will not return to Whitehorse Middle School, and we are determining next steps. In addition, our team is coming together to create a full support plan to ensure that students is safe and fully supported at school.” RELATED NEWS: Christian School Apologizes After Teacher Wore Blackface During African History Lesson #JusticeForTamlaHorsford: Why And How Did This Mother Of Five Really Die At An Adult Sleepover?

A new documentary about the alleged sex crimes Michael Jackson made its debut at the Sundance film festival last month. With a runtime of over four hours, Leaving Neverland was only screened once, but despite its small audience, the film quickly became the talk of the festival. Neverland is set to make its broadcast debut on HBO in March, and according to a new report from TMZ, Jackson’s family is doing everything in its power to prevent that from happening. According to court papers obtained by the site, the Jacksons — who have already compared the film to ” a public lynching ” — have filed a $100 million suit against the network. Such a move is not uncommon in cases where a piece of journalism threatens major damage to the reputation of a rich and powerful person — even when that person is no longer living. What’s unusual in this case is that the Jacksons may have a valid case. TMZ reports that the family’s attorneys are not disputing the claims made in the documentary. Rather, they’re arguing that HBO relinquished its right to disparage Jackson in any way when it reached an agreement with the singer nearly 27 years ago. Back in 1992, HBO aired a concert special entitled Michael Jackson Live in Concert in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour. Jackson’s contract at the time required all major media partners to sign a very specific non-disparagement agreement. “HBO shall not make any disparaging remarks concerning Performer or any of his representatives, agents, or business practices or do any act that may harm or disparage or cause to lower in esteem the reputation or public image of performer,” reads a document reportedly signed by HBO execs. HBO’s lawyers will likely argue that the contract is voided by the fact that Jackson is dead and HBO is a radically different network now than it was in 1992. But no doubt the Jacksons have hired a legal dream team, and if there’s no expiration date on the contract, then they may succeed in burying Leaving Neverland — for now. Unfortunately for the Jackson estate, this is 2019 — an era with a virtually infinite number of media outlets. Which means the film is sure to find an audience one way or another.

Last week, Lauren Swanson revealed that she had suffered a miscarriage in the autumn of 2018. In addition to speaking about that loss on Counting On , she and Josiah are opening up in a new interview. Together, the married couple explains why they decided to share their heartbreak with the world. “I wasn’t feeling well,” Lauren explains on the new season of Counting On . This took place in October of last year. “I was cramping really, really bad,” Lauren adds. “Which was quite strange because I normally don’t.” “I was thinking maybe I had something that had gluten in it,” she shares. “That’s what I was thinking.” “Well, it was late at night and I went to use the restroom and right there was the baby,” Lauren laments. “Gone.” Speaking to Fox News , Lauren explains why she and Josiah decided to inform fans of the experience. “It was definitely something I was questioning myself whether I should share our miscarriage,” Lauren admits. “But you know a lot of people go through this,” she notes. “And a lot of people face it in silence.” “And I just wanted to bring hope to a lot of people that go through this,” Lauren expresses. She explains that she wants others who have lost a pregnancy to know “That they’re not alone.” Josiah chimes in, explaining that he and his young wife are aware that “A lot of women go through this.” “A doctor was sharing with us that one out of every five pregnancies ends up in miscarriage,” Josiah remarks. “And so,” he says. “It’s a very common thing with it being the first trimester most of them.” Notably, most miscarriages can easily go unnoticed because they happen so early. They’re dismissed as a late period and odd cramps. “A lot of women don’t share it,” Josiah remarks. “And they keep it in.” “Our doctor really encouraged us [to speak out],” Josiah reveals. “That helps with the healing.” “It really has drawn us closer together,” Josiah expresses. “… It’s not just a honeymoon for the rest of your life,” he tells Fox News. “There’s definitely going to be hard times.” “And hard times are a part of real life,” Josiah affirms. “It’s not just all happiness. …” “Going through that together really has drawn me closer to Lauren,” he admits. “And,” Josiah gushes. “I love her even more now than the day I married her.” It was on Instagram that Lauren first shared the difficult family update. “Many of yall don’t know this, but a couple of months ago we found out we were expecting,” Lauren wrote. “However, soon after we miscarried.” “At first, we kind of wanted to just stay quiet about the news,” she continued. “But knew that since everyone is anticipating for us to announce that were having a baby,” Lauren said. She continued: “We felt like it was time that we told everyone that our first and only baby is in heaven.” Lauren then notes how painful, as we here at THG have noted in the past, it can be for parents who miscarry to be asked when they’ll be pregnant. “It is hard to hear when people asks us if we are expecting, when we only recently lost our baby,” she admitted. Lauren wrote: “You can imagine it was devastating to the both of us.” “Our expectations of setting up a baby room, hearing the heart beat, feeling the baby’s first kick in mommys tummy,” she expressed. Her words continue: “holding our little one and getting to to see our precious baby were – Shattered.” “Gone,” Lauren lamented. “Right before our eyes.” “Even though our sweet child is no longer with us,” she wrote. “It is such a comfort to know that one day we will get to see our baby in Heaven!” “To the ones who have gone through this, I know your pain,” Lauren affirmed at the time. “It’s real and terrible,” she wrote. “I just want you to know you don’t have to suffer in pain alone. It is not your fault.” “We greatly appreciate your prayers as we go through this hard time!” she concluded. While one doesn’t usually think of the Duggar family as the best folks to speak out on what’s primarily a women’s issue, they spoke very well. Lauren and Josiah are grieving. So many couples have experienced a similar loss. Not everyone grieves in the same way, but it’s good for them to know that they are not alone. View Slideshow: 33 Stars Who Have Suffered a Miscarriage
Gwyneth Paltrow very clearly resides in her very own universe. In case this wasn’t obvious based on the bizarre and expensive items the actress peddles on Goop, Paltrow has now shown no shame in freely admitting the following: She doesn’t know what’s going on between Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson . To Paltrow’s credit, if you want to phrase it that way, she does apparently read the Internet. She is evidently aware that Thompson is trending today for some reason; she just doesn’t know it’s beause he cheated on Khloe Kardashian with one of her good friends, Jordyn Woods . She seemingly has no idea that Thompson stands accused of inviting Woods over to his house on Sunday night and then making out with her on the couch and then not saying goodbye to her until 7 a.m. Or that she learned about this affair through a series of very awkwad text messages . Simply put, Paltrow is mostly clueless. But she’d at least like to have a clue. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Shades Jordyn Woods, Puts on Brave Face for the Press We know this because someone hilariously wrote the following on Instagram today in response to this sordid story: Jordyn Woods is best friends with the worlds youngest billionaire who gifts her with cars, diamonds, and lavish vacations. You’re telling me there’s a chance she gave that all up for a guy who rides bench for the Cavs and has a community d—? THE HORROR. Thompson is actually averaging 29.8 minutes per game this year for Cleveland, but that isn’t the point right now. The point is that Paltrow actually stumbled across this comment and replied with one of her own. It reads: Can someone explain what’s going on? I have never heard of half of these people, someone give me context. Please. It seems serious Assuming Paltrow is familiar with Khloe, simply due to the pervasive nature of her family in the entertainment industry, this is a rather funny way of throwing shade at Thompson. And it’s even funnier because we totally believe that the actress legitimately has no idea who he is. Cardi B, conversely, is very familiar with both people involved in this scandal. And, as always, she has an opinion to share. “Why us women don’t have compassion toward each other? Y’all know I’ve been through some shit, I know y’all know I’ve been through some shit,” the rapper said to her followers on Thursday, clearly angry at those taking Khloe to task for some reason. “This whole Khloe Kardashian thing and everybody is like celebrating that that happened to her. It’s like, why? “I know the Kardashians have done f-cked up shit before and everything, but the thing is, it’s like, I think the karma got to them when the last situation happened to shorty before the day she gave birth,” she added. Cardi, of course, is citing the last time Thompson was caught cheating . Continuing with this theme, Cardi went on… “Whatever karma they deserve, I think they already have it. “So why do you guys keep wishing that on a woman? Especially a woman that has a daughter? We know how it is when a n—a fuck up. Y’all know that your heart shatters in pieces. “Y’all know it feels like your heart is literally bleeding and you just want to die. You can’t even escape it when you’re seeping, you dream about it.” Preach, Cardi B. Preach! View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian: Tristan Thompson CONFESSED to Banging Jordyn Woods! (And It Was All Caught on Camera?!) On a roll, Cardi turned her attention to Kardashian and added: “She already learned her lesson, something real f-cked up happened before she gave birth, so why do you guys keep enjoying other people’s pain, other people’s misery, knowing how much it hurts when a guy that you’re in love with, especially the father of your child, does something wrong?” In conclusion? Cardi called out “all these fake ass woke people” celebrating women and feminism, saying they’re the same ones “that will be laughing in the comments when another woman is going through some shit.” We rarely say this, but: Amen, Cardi B! We feel for you, Keeks. You’ll get through this.
We really should not be surprised. We really should have seen this coming. What else did we expect from someone who’s been so open about their behavior and attitude? We speak, of course, about the strong rumor that Tristan Thompson has once again cheated on Khloe Kardashian, this time prompting the reality star to end their relationship. However, we do NOT speak about Tristan Thompson. Yes, naturally we expected him to step out once more on Khloe because he did it so carelessly and so frequently back in 2017 — and he did it while she was pregnant. What, we were supposed to think he’d somehow learned from his mistake despite the fact that he didn’t really suffer any repercussions the first time around? Still, though, our focus for the purposes of this update is on the woman with whom the power forward allegedly played tonsil hockey: Jordyn Woods. And we return to what we wrote about when it comes to Ms. Woods: We should have known she would do something like this. Granted, Woods is famous solely because she is best friends with Kylie Jenner . That’s what makes this scandal so shocking and so hurtful. But one look at Jordyn’s Twitter page makes it apparent that she may have just been using Kylie this whole time for fame and fortune; heck, she may have been using Kylie this whole time just to get close to Tristan. Consider what she wrote on February 17, the same day she reportedly spent all night at Tristan’s home, very likely getting boxed out by the rebounding force, if you know what we mean: I could love you and still cut you [the f-ck] off. There you have it, right? Woods is openly telling the social media world that she would not hesitate to screw over even those very close to her — which is exactly what she’s appeared to have done here. According to a report by The Hollywood Unlocked, and later confirmed by other better-known celebrity gossip outlets, Thompson hosted a gathering at his house this past weekend. Woods was on the exclusive guest list and witnesses say she made out with Tristan at various points during the evening. They also say she didn’t leave until 7 a.m. Shortly after the report went public, Tristan Tweeted that it was “FAKE NEWS,” prior to deleting this very lame defense. One of Khloe’s best pals, Malika Haqq, wrote on Instagram that the report actually contained “STRONG FACTS,” while Larsa Pippen echoed this sentiment with an “Amen.” Thompson previously made headlines in April of 2018 after he was caught cheating on Kardashian with numerous women days before she gave birth to their daughter. Actual surveillance footage from months prior revealed Tristan cozying up to females in Washington D.C. and New York. But Khloe eventually took him back because she wanted a strong family foundation for their child. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian to Tristan Thompson: Yes, You Cheated! God, You Suck! That won’t be happening this time, not after Thompson broke his vow to keep his penis in one place and not after he got it on with Jordyn Woods of all people. Just days ago, Khloe wrote “Baby girl” as a sweet response to selfies Woods posted on Instagram. Jordyn had also posed a model for Khloe’s Good American clothing band; the two were totally tight, you guys. But not as tight as Jordyn was to Kylie. When you consider their history, it’s almost as if Kylie’s own wife cheated on her with her own brother-in-law. In 2017, on an episode of Life of Kylie , Woods and Jenner took part in a “committment ceremony,” which was very dumb but also very interesting, considering what has transpired since. “I vow to always be there for you, through thick and thin. In this life and after,” Woods said, in front of friends and family. Said Kylie in return: “I promise to encourage you, inspire you, love you, through all the good and bad times.” “I actually feel like I’m in a full relationship with Kylie,” Woods later said, adding: “There are different types of relationships – we’re definitely in one. Not necessarily sexual, but definitely emotional. It’s draining sometimes.” Especially now, yes. Let’s just hope Khloe takes her own advice. Let’s hope she really did mean what she wrote on Instagram back on January 23: There will be some things you won’t get over. Some things that will sting you so hard they will set you back to where you started. And you will hurt and hurt and hurt, but you will also rise from it. You will learn from the past. You will adapt and survive no matter how hard it gets. You will shape your own reality and accept how you should never settle for anything less than you deserve. And let’s hope she never talks to Thompson ever again.

If you're a Teen Mom 2 fan, then you're probably already aware that David Eason and Jenelle Evans don't have the most stable relationship. In fact, in the past six months alone, Jenelle accused David of assault; David received a visit from the Secret Service for issuing violent threats online, and as always, the Department of Child and Family Services took a keen interest in the Easons and their ability to raise children. The current season of TM2 has shown us that David recently became a major threat to Jenelle's career by menacing crew members while she's trying to film. ( Eason was fired from the show last year after launching a bigoted tirade against fans on social media.) So it didn't come as much of a surprise when Jenelle announced that she's single over the weekend. Of course, we've been down this road before, and these two always reconcile, usually within a day or two. This time, however, those who are rooting for Jenelle to stick to her guns and kick David to the curb have discovered some encouraging news on Eason's Facebook page. Take a look: 1. The Easons On the current season of Teen Mom 2, Jenelle often bursts into tears while defending David. But a lot has changed in the months since the season was filmed. 2. All the Single Ladies On Saturday, Jenelle changed her relationship status to “Separated” and posted that she’s “Single AF” on Facebook. 3. Not Thrilled About It As you can see, Jenelle was not in the greatest spirits over the weekend — but it looks as though she’s sticking to her guns. 4. Leaving the Land In fact, it seems she doesn’t know where David is at the moment — and doesn’t particularly care. 5. Also Single AF David quietly changed his relationship status to “Single” after Jenelle revealed she’s on the market. 6. Going the Extra Mile Yes, David took things one step further than Jenelle, who only switched her status to “Separated.” View Slideshow
Late last week, fans were relieved to hear that Khloe Kardashian has finally dumped Tristan Thompson . The pair’s distance on Valentine’s Day really drove home the message that things appear to be over between them. And it looks like the notorious cheater is already back on the market … if he was ever off the market to begin with. According to Life & Style , Tristan Thompson spent part of Valentine’s Day at the Pineapple Hill Saloon & Grill in Sherman Oaks, California. “Tristan was being flirty,” an insider reports. “Hitting up girls.” He is said to have chatted and posed for selfies with girls at the bar. For dinner, at least, he was less of a flirt. Us Weekly reports that Tristan dined with a couple of male pals at Gyu-Kaku restaurant. “He was with two other male friends,” a source says. “He seemed very calm and reserved. All of them did.” That’s less flrity … but it’s a far cry from a Valentine’s Day dinner with the mother of his daughter. But Us Weekly says that Tristan was much more flirtatious before he flew out from Ohio. The basketball player apparently spent some time with women at Barley House bar in Cleveland. “He came in the back door and he was snuck quickly through the back by two or three bouncers,” an insider revealed. “They took him immediately upstairs,” the source said. But Tristan didn’t spend much time alone. “There were some girls who went up afterward,” the insider shared. “One of the bouncers said, ‘Tristan Thompson is upstairs.'” “And they just said, ‘Really?’ and he took them up there,” the source described. Khloe has now had ten months to grapple with the reality of Tristan’s cheating scandal. As a source told Us Weekly last month, processing that betrayal takes time. “Tristan is a great father, but it’s not yet clear if they can fully rebuild what they had,” the insider admitted. “The extent of what Tristan did is still setting in,” the source noted. “She hasn’t gotten over it yet.” Sometimes, in an emotionally charged crisis, people latch onto a decision — such as to remain with a man who humiliated them. It can takes months or even years for them to realize that they madea catastrophic mistake. As we reported on Friday, Khloe has allegedly finally kicked Tristan to the curb. “They are done — for good,” an insider claimed. “Khloe began to see what everyone else had been seeing for months,” the source added. “That he doesn’t deserve her.” “Khloe suspected he had cheated on her during the holidays,” the insider revealed. “And that,” the source said. “Was when she decided to remain in Los Angeles with True.” The insider concluded: “her only priority is True” It’s good to hear that Khloe is focusing her energy and affection where it belongs: on her child, precious baby True. Of course, it was widely reported that Khloe’s mistaken beliefs about what is best for True were why she stuck with Tristan in the first place. Some children who are deeply impacted by a parent’s divorce assume that all children with parents in different households feel the same way. Reports said that Khloe was worried that True would grow up with issues if her parents weren’t together. Some even claimed that Khloe thought that Tristan would be distant from True if Khloe didn’t use their relationship to encourage him to act as True’s father. Obviously, any man who needs to be induced to act as a good father is not actually a good father to begin with. For weeks, Khloe has been dropping strong hints about her feelings regarding Tristan. Instead of referring to him by name, she has been subtweeting and vagueing him social media. A lot of fans are encouraged that she’s taking this brave, difficult step by breaking things off. Others are concerned that Khloe is still on the fence, and that she could take Tristan back — again — at any given moment. Only time will tell.
