A brand new episode of BEAT SHAZAM airs tonight on FOX and this time it looks like Jamie and Corinne Foxx have a thing or two to learn from contestant Rahmeal when it comes to dance moves. Will you be watching? An all-new episode of BEAT SHAZAM is airing Tuesday, June 26 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
ABC has a couple of exciting announcements to make. First, the network has confirmed that Bachelor in Paradise Season 4 will, indeed, air this summer, despite the multi-week scandal that delayed production at the start of filming. View Slideshow: Bachelor in Paradise Season 4: Who’s In?!? As a result of the He Said/She Said/And Also a Producer Said between Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson, new episodes of this reality series will kick off on August 14, immediately followed by a second new installment on August 15. The show was originally scheduled to premiere on August 8. It was pushed back, however, after Olympios and Jackson got very drunk… then got naked in a pool together… and then got into some seriously raunchy action. Things got so hot and heavy and sexually heated that a producer thought Corinne may have been too drunk to give consent. Once this possibility was raised, Warner Bros. shut down production and sent all contestants home. Olympios stated publicly that she felt “victimized,” while Jackson said his “character” was being “assassinated.” In the end, an investigation determined no sexual assault of any kind took place and cast members were invited back down to Mexico to finish filming. But no way would Corinne and DeMario be included among these cast members, right? Mostly. That’s mostly right. HOWEVER, Olympios said in a brief statement on Wednesday that she’ll be appearing on one episode of Season 4 after all. “I am very happy to be appearing on the Bachelor In Paradise Special,” she said simply today. Jackson, sources, confirm is on board for this same special. In an interview with E! News shortly after his name was cleared, DeMario said he had no hard feelings toward Corinne. He detailed their sexual encounter ( in MAJOR detail ) and wished Olympios the best on multiple occasions. It’s unclear just when this special will air, but Season 4 itself will take place over six weeks this summer. Those six weeks will feature past Bachelor and Bachelorette contestants attempting to find love for a second time in Mexico, while they also witness the wedding of Bachelor in Paradise Season 3 couple Carly Waddell and Evan Bass. This ceremony was filmed on June 17. Following the sex and alcohol scandal, producers said they would emphasize certain rules on Bachelor in Paradise going forward, including a two drink per hour maximum. They also said bartenders would keep a much closer eye on who was drinking and how much they were drinking. “I am also happy about the changes that have been made to the production of Bachelor In Paradise,” Corinne said in a previous statement, adding: “While I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to have been a participant on The Bachelor , and while I was invited to return to Bachelor In Paradise when production resumed, I respectfully made the decision not to return.” What changed her mind? Or did she always plan on making a cameo on Season 4? We’ll never know. But with no misconduct determined to have taken place, perhaps Olympios wants a forum to tell her side of the story. WILL YOU BE WATCHING BACHELOR IN PARADISE? Yes, can’t wait! No, that show is gross! Only the parts with Chris Harrison View Poll »
Bachelor In Paradise Co-Star Says Corrine Olympios Forced Herself On Castmates Bachelor in Paradise co-contestant Jasmine Goode is calling BS on Corinne Olympios’ victim claims against DeMario Jackson . She claims that she witnessed Corinne throughout the evening and even though she was clearly hammered, she had all her faculties and was in decent spirits after her encounter with Demario. In fact, Jasmine says DeMario wasn’t even the first guy Corinne had aggressively tried to get it popping with THAT NIGHT. Jasmine claims that the men Corinne came after were the ones who were in a poor position to consent. As she told E!News : “The day of the incident under investigation, Corinne did not display any change in behavior from what was observed by the cast on her season of The Bachelor. Corinne forced herself on three male cast members when they were unable to consent, in addition to engaging with DeMario. After the incident, everything seemed fine. There was no mention about being hurt. However, when producers tried to cut her off from drinking, she got upset and said, ‘Watch, watch what I’m gonna do.’” Yikes. And as for Corinne’s attempt to blame production for her getting black out drunk and shoving her genitalia in other cast members’ faces…Jasmine says that even though booze is readily available, NO ONE is on-set force feeding the cast alcohol or egging them on to get frisky for the cameras. “The cast is not encouraged or forced to engage in any behaviors or to drink alcohol. Producers check in to make sure the cast is comfortable and accommodate to the needs requested.” This one is just getting messier and messier. You would think with cameras rolling the whole time, the story here would be much clearer… Splash/WENN
Image via Getty/Axelle/Bauer-Griffin Corinne Olympios Blames ‘Bachelor In Paradise’ Producers For Drunken Sex Scene Earlier this morning we reported on some freaky-deeky activity between two contestants on Bachelor In Paradise that lead to contestant releases and suspension of production. What wasn’t mentioned in the previous story were alleged complaints that cast members made to producers about Corinne Olympios’ state of mind when she was filmed making out and having oral sex with cast mate DeMario Jackson in a swimming pool after a long night of drinking. According to TMZ , the following day, cast mates are said to have explained to Corinne what had happened the previous night, she remembered none of it, while DeMario remembers everything. The rubbing, touching, fingering AND genital-licking. Here’s the problem, the cast says production ignored their concerns, production say no one from the cast said a mumbling word to them. The producers say that Corinne was “fully engaged” and seemed to know exactly what she was doing. To make matters worse, Corinne has a boyfriend and she claims she would never do anything to jeopardize her relationship while the cameras were on her. Corinne isn’t blaming DeMario as much as she blames the producers and she’s hired a lawyer to make her point for her. Is is really, really bad on a multitude of levels. If Corinne decides, it appears that she could accuse DeMario of sexual assault and the entire production crew would likely defend him. This is gonna be a mess. Smh.
While filming Bachelor in Paradise Season 4, something transpired between Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson . It was something so traumatic that production was shut down on the ABC series, possibly for good. And while we aren't going to speculate over what happened once alcohol got mixed with the desire for ratings and a pair of wild contestants, we can say for certain that not many layers of clothing were involved. Corinne and DeMario getting naked in a pool made us think of other times contestants took nearly everything off while shooting an episode of The Bachelor. So here's a look back at the most naked moments in series history: 1. Original Sinners During a bridal-themed photo shoot, Brittany and Nick Viall dressed up as Adam and Eve (for some reason) and nearly showed us their full applies on The Bachelor. 2. Corinne in To Win It Corinne Olmpios took nearly everything off nearly every time she interacted with Nick. 3. Hotties Play Horseshoes On The Bachelor Season 15, Brad Womack invited his women over to the mansion to partake in some good old-fashioned party activities. Without much clothing on their bodies. 4. Booties and Cowboy Boots On Chris Soules’ season of The Bachelor, the contestants had to ride tractors in their bikinis. That’s basically it. This is a photo from that episode. 5. Models, Mutts and A Lot of Skin Juan Pablo and a few of his suitors stripped down for a sexy photo shoot to benefit “Models n Mutts,” an animal charity. Why did they need to wear swimsuits for it? Why not?!? 6. A Sexy, Synchronized Swim On Bachelor Pad Season 2, the men jumped in for an intense synchronized swim class, which was basically an excuse for viewers to ogle their abs. View Slideshow
Though it’s easy to forget among the numerous scandals and allegations of treason surrounding the Trump administration, Donald Trump’s Presidency has also been filled with suggestions that he and his wife clearly aren’t getting along . Well, it looks like the internet has decided that he has a girlfriend, and they even think that they’ve figured out who. So, when you can’t keep track of who some star is dating or you totally know but you just can’t remember the name, you just pick up your phone or bring up Google and say: “Charlie Sheen girlfriend.” And that’s the way to do it, by the way. Please don’t make search engine algorithms try to make sense of “Who is that actor Charlie Sheen dating again? I forget” It is 2017 and people shouldn’t be typing sentences into Google unless they’re looking to match song lyrics or root out plagiarism. ( His girlfriend is Julia Stambler by the way, but that’s neither here no there) Well, Hope Hicks is Donald Trump’s 28-year-old White House Director of Strategic Communications, and as reported by Inquisitr, people Googling information about her seem to regard her as Donald Trump’s girlfriend . Not everyone, but enough that Google’s infamous suggested searches — the autofill function — seems eager to suggest it. A lot of people don’t know much about Hope. Our first reaction to Hope Hicks’ name was to wonder what it’s like to have a name like “Hope” and work in an administration that embodies despair. But on second thought, we realized that her name makes sense for the Trump White House, given Trump’s base demographics. This is right up there with an NSA whistleblower named “Reality Winner.” Like, if someone were just sitting down and writing all of this for a TV show, they’d probably need to go back and make the names more realistic. But, though Google Trends says that there wasn’t really an uptick in searches for Hope Hicks until a couple of months ago, she’s been with the administration since the beginning. In fact, she was at the notably undercrowded inauguration, seen alongside Kellyanne Conway — both dressed as very different flavors of supervillains. If Kellyanne dressed as a supervillain who sends ransom notes in a jack-in-the-box, Hope dressed as a supervillain who turns her enemies to stone. The thing is that we can’t find any real indications that Hope Hicks is anything more than Trump’s employee. But we think that one factor in making people suggest this is that her looks are … above average. Well above average — she was a model for Ralph Lauren. She does do her makeup like she’s 40, but that’s not at all uncommon for affluent conservative women. Sometimes even when they’re still teenagers. And that’s totally her right; she can wear makeup however she likes. But she still looks like somebody’s 28-year-old stepmom. Trump is notoriously picky, but when viewed alongside racist elf Jeff Sessions and Steve Bannon, who looks like every male NPC in The Witcher , it’s easy to see how she might look appealing to someone like Trump. Add in the apparent marital tension going on in the Trump family, hundreds of millions of people keeping up with news of the administration, and time … and you’re going to see some people speculate. By reputation, Trump is as womanizing as he is orange. We don’t just mean the infamous “grab ’em by the p—y” tape or the fact that he’s had three wives … but those are major factors. Some Twitter users have noted that Hope Hicks’ office is fairly close to his, and suggested that an improper relationship would explain that. Even if it turned out that Hope Hicks is genuinely Trump’s girlfriend, or mistress, or whatever, we’re not going to kid ourselves and imagine that the base that elected him will turn on him for it. Even though they are almost all the same people who acted scandalized by the Monica Lewinsky scandal back in the ’90s. This administration has a massive political advantage, in that the core of Trump’s voters don’t seem to mind anything that he says or does, and it’s hard to think of that changing easily or soon. As far as we know, no one actually has any evidence that Hope and Trump are seeing each other. Ugh, and we do not want to think about what form that “evidence” would take. If that really is what’s going on … we guess we hope she’s into watersports , huh? Sorry; we made it worse.

What started as a seemingly humorous situation on Bachelor in Paradise has devolved into something far more serious. On Sunday night, word spread around the Internet that producers had halted production on Season 4 of this ABC series, with a network spokesperson referencing “allegations of misconduct” between cast members. Not much was known at the time of this original report. View Slideshow: Bachelor in Paradise Season 4: Who’s In?!? But an insider then told TMZ that the cast members in question were Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson, probably the two most notorious former Bachelor and Bachelorette stars to sign on for this spinoff. Olympios was eliminated by Nick Viall after taking off her top on many occasions and making endless sexual advances in an attempt to win Viall over. Jackson, meanwhile, was just sent packing by Rachel Lindsay a couple weeks ago after she learned he still had a girlfriend. According to this insider, producers told Olympios and Jackson to hook up because they believe it would be good for ratings. Okay, sure , the reality show villains allegedly said, proceeding to go off and get very drunk together. Soon enough, Olympios and Jackson were reportedly making out (hard!) prior to making their way over to a pool. At this point, clothes came off and a source close to DeMario says there was “rubbing, touching and fingering,” most of which was initiated by Corinne. She even thrust her crotch in Jackson’s face, at which point he started to lick. Again, this is all according to a third party, anonymous source who spoke to TMZ. At some point, the physical action came to a halt, largely because Jackson was unable to perform sexually due to the amount of alcohol he had consumed. And this is where the controversy kicked in. A producer who had been assigned to remain by Corinne’s side reported what she saw to executives. She said it appeared as if Olympios was too drunk to control herself and questioned whether some kind of sexual assault took place in the pool. In response, the network shut down production and sent the entire cast home. Everyone except for Corinne and DeMario were spotted late last week at the Houston airport. An investigation is underway to determine just what transpired and who is responsible, although various outlets insist that Olympios is NOT directing blame at DeMario. He was also wasted during the hook-up. The stars have supposedly been in touch since this incident went down and are on solid terms. But Corinne has lawyered up, believes producers should have stepped in when it was clear she did not give consent and is considering a lawsuit of some kind. As for the future of Bachelor in Paradise? Noted franchise expert and Bachelorette spoilers guru Reality Steve says with 100% certainty that this season will not air. (It had been scheduled to premiere on August 8.) Speaking to People Magazine on the condition of anonymity, one Season 4 cast member said the following on Monday afternoon: “We were told to stay in a certain part of the [resort] while they figured out what the hell had happened. “We knew something bad had happened; there was a dark energy that came around the house. “You have to understand that we weren’t even there a week. The game hadn’t even really begun yet.” This same contestant went on to explain how no one really knew what was happening for two days after the drunken hook-up took place: “They stopped taping anything, and we were just kind of there, waiting in limbo. “We couldn’t talk to each other about what we knew. On Thursday, one of the camera guys told me that they were probably going to shut down production. I didn’t realize that it was that serious until then. “I was like, ‘wait, they’re thinking of canceling the show?’ It hadn’t even crossed my mind that they’d do that.” The contestants are paid a stipend to appear on Bachelor in Paradise; it’s contingent on how many episodes they last, meaning this abrupt cancelation will cost each person a decent chunk of change. That’s unimportant in the big picture if any kind of assault or non-consensual act did take place, but it’s just another tidbit to consider. “We’re pissed that this whole thing happened,” says the contestant. “They could have stopped this before it got this far.” And that’s at the heart of the issue here. What did producers see? What did they do? What did they not do? What responsibility do they have to make their presence felt during filming? At least one witness tells Entertainment Tonight that Corinne and DeMario didn’t do anything that doesn’t happen all the time on this series. They didn’t do anything that isn’t basically encouraged on the series. “In the moment, they were both drinking,” this source says. “He’s a much bigger guy, but they were drinking all day. … They were all drunk. “It’s the nature of the show.”
So far, The Bachelor spoilers have been deadly accurate. In terms of which women advance each week, and other details, just spot on. Will that trend continue Monday night? For The Bachelor star Nick Viall, it's coming down to the wire, with only six women left headed into this week, and just four roses to give. Just four weeks remain before The Bachelor winner is revealed, but we're now just hours away from learning Nick Viall's final four officially. By the end of the episode, The Bachelor Season 21 Episode 7 to be exact, Nick will reveal who he'll be going on a a hometown date with. Obviously, to make it this far in the process, all six of the women have built up a real connection with the 36-year-old franchise staple. With Corinne Olympios and Vanessa Grimaldi looking like the favorites to make the finale right now, that leaves four women and two roses. (Of course, that doesn't mean Corinne or Vanessa won't be eliminated either … we're just basing that on spoilers, and on the obvious.) Basically, it would be near impossible to see either one getting the axe before a hometown date. Some of the remaining others, though? Over the course of the interminable two-hour installment on ABC, three lucky women reportedly score a one-on-one date with Nick tonight. Those ladies are Rachel Lindsay Danielle M., and Vanessa. That gives them a huge leg up on the competition, while Corinne, Kristina and Raven Gates must battle it out on one final group date. From what we're hearing, one elimination will take place during the group date, while one woman's one-on-one date will be her last. Will The Bachelor spoilers be proven right as usual? Time, and rose ceremonies in the Bahamas, in the girls’ hometowns, and in Finland (overnight dates plus final rose ceremony) will tell. You can bet there will be twists, turns and drama, though, from Nick questioning the process itself to the women growing more desperate. Just how desperate are they willing to get here? Check out the promo below to see the lengths one woman will go to in crunch time in order to make sure she gets to bring Nick home. You'll never guess who, or what she does. Never.
