Jessa Duggar: Bracing For an Early Delivery?!

Posted on January 5, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

According to one of her most recent social media updates,  Jessa Duggar was 34 weeks pregnant  two weeks ago. We’re no mathematicians, but by our calculations, that makes her about 36 weeks pregnant now. The average pregnancy lasts 40 weeks beginning from the day of the woman’s last pregnancy, though the date of conception is usually about two weeks later. All of this is a very long, unnecessarily scientific way of saying Jessa’s due date is fast approaching. In all likelihood, it’s still several weeks away, but there are some fans who believe Jessa may be just about ready to pop, despite what she says on social media. This theory seems to be based on little aside from the fact that Jessa concealed her second pregnancy  from the media for most of her first trimester. We’re not sure why that would lead fans to believe that she actually got pregnant even earlier and kept it a secret even longer , but hey – our motto at THG is we report the nonsensical rumors, and you decide if they’re total BS. Okay, we guess there is one other thing adding to the speculation, which is the fact that Jessa hasn’t posted anything on Instagram in four days. We know what you’re thinking: Who the hell cares? And we believe you’re absolutely right to think that, but there are others who believe that Jessa’s absence from the ‘Gram is evidence that she’s already given birth to a little brother or sister for Spurgeon. We imagine its name is Pubert, or something similarly horrendous. The Jessa pregnacy truthers point out that Jessa usually posts on social media about once a day. They reason that her lack of selfies this week must mean that she’s already surrounded herself with hay and farm animals in a three-walled manger, or however the Duggars prepare to give birth. Obviously, this is a bit of a stretch, but it’s worth noting that Jessa and her female family members do tend to be pretty secretive about their pregnancies. We guess you don’t have much choice when 100% percent of your income comes from a reality show that’s centered entirely around weddings and births, and you’re not not allowed to get divorced.

Lala Kent: Leaving Vanderpump Rules!

Posted on December 13, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Scheana Marie can breathe a huge sigh of relief. The always-controversial Lala Kent has confirmed that she will be leaving Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules during Season 5 of the hit series. If you  watch Vanderpump Rules online , you probably already know Lala has not gone down a storm with many of the SUR employees. Her exit comes as no surprise. Often clashing with the more established members of the SUR staff, she struggled to win their acceptance from the moment she arrived. Add in the fact that she was missing from the cast promotional poster earlier this year. It was clear something went wrong along the way.  “I’m excited for people to watch me exit because it’s just going to show a new side of my life and I think it will get to show people who I really am.” Kent told TooFab in a statement: Watch Vanderpump Rules Season 5 Episode 6 Online “I watch the show sometimes and I’m like that’s not me. I want people to see who I actually hang out with, my day-to-day life. And I never got to show that.” “I’m excited for people to watch me leave Vanderpump Rules to be quite honest.” Reality TV often comes under fire because the way some of the stars are portrayed. Let’s just say she was never shown in the best light and that’s why Scheana flat out refused to become friends with her.  “I made it halfway through the season and just decided that I want no part of the people anymore,” she revealed. “I feel like they don’t deserve to be in my world in any way shape or form. So I dismissed myself.” The part in which she dismissed herself seems pretty rich because rumors are swirling she’s been getting jiggy with a married man. Maybe she did not expect her deceit to make it on to the TV show, or something.  Either way, don’t expect the drama at SUR to slow down in Lala’s absence. There’s every possibility she’ll pull a James Kennedy at some point down the line and try get her job back.  View Slideshow: Lala Kent: Best Instagram Pics of Vanderpump Rules’ Newest Star That seems to be what the people from the show do when their next venture hits a lull.  Heck, if the rumor is true about her with the married man, maybe she and Scheana have more in common than they think.  Time will tell, you guys.  In the meantime, speculate in the comments about what Lala’s big exit storyline will involve, and whether anyone will be sad to see her go. We’d be surprised if Lisa Vanderpump does not have a say in her exit – or if she goes quietly into the night without some major confrontation.

Jill Duggar Shares Controversial Photos of Stillborn Sister Jubilee

Posted on December 13, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jill Duggar is about to come under fire for a move that the Duggars made back in 2011, before they were anywhere near as famous or controversial: The sharing of photos featuring a stillborn Jubilee Shalom Duggar .  In memoriam of the baby that would have been Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s 20th child , Jill opted to share the pics on social media. Of course, her Instagram following consists of over 1 million followers, many of which were bitterly divided on the polarizing pictures.  On her Instagram page, she wrote: “5 years ago today my mom gave birth to my youngest little sister, Jubilee Shalom Duggar and Jesus welcomed her home to Heaven!” “She is a testimony to every life being beautiful; at 18 weeks gestation, she was a beautiful baby with little blue eyes, 10 fingers & 10 toes!”  “She weighed 4 oz. and was 6 inches long.” “We miss you Jubilee and look forward to meeting you one day in Heaven!” Jill added. “@duggarfam #jubileeshalom #job121”  She also shared a passage from the Bible. Job 1:21 reads, “Naked I came out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither; the Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away.”  “Blessed be the name of the Lord.” The pics were originally taken as part of a memorial service held in honor of the stillborn baby, and stirred up tons of controversy upon release. The deeply religious, pro-file  Duggar family shared the miscarried fetus pic  shortly after the child’s memorial service.  She the images in question below: Some commenters were supportive of the photos that Jill shared and her reason for doing so … others, not so much.  One follower wrote: “So sorry for your loss but will NEVER EVER forget how beautifully your family showed the world the precious life of the unborn child – fearfully and wonderfully made sweet Jubilee.” “Rest In Peace in God’s Divine hands.”  Another commented, “AMEN. I also lost a precious baby. I hope to meet that little one in heaven.”  Others, however, weren’t as supported, and outright called the images — and Jill — crass.  One commenter said, apparently disgusted: “Pictures of a dead fetus….? Really?”  “No happy birthday to Josie but all of a sudden, Jubilee: Memba her?” wrote another, referencing the family’s 19th child. Baby Jubilee would have been five years old today, had she lived; Josie Duggar recently celebrated her seventh birthday. On the whole, however, the Duggars received widespread support, and the naysayers were few and far between. Instead of slamming the photos, or the baby the Arkansas family lost, they decided to argue the merits of religion instead. That’s progress, if nothing else, right?

Jill Duggar: Did She Lie About Returning to Central America?!

Posted on December 12, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

When the Duggar family returned to television with Counting On, it was unclear if they would be able to find an audience. Their first reality series was beloved by millions, but many of those fans turned their back on the family in response to the horrors of the Josh Duggar sex scandals . The family’s new show has cobbled together decent enough ratings to remain on the air for three seasons, but it’s widely believed that many of the new viewers are “anti-fans” who “hate-watch” Counting On. For the most part, we imagine that it’s all the same to the Duggars, so long as people are tuning in. However, on several occasions, they’ve experienced the downside of their new anti-fan base: These people are quick to pick up on and point out any and all deceptions or questionable behavior revealed on the series. The latest has to do with Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard’s missionary work in Central America. After ten months in El Salvador, Jill and Derick made a temporary return to Arkansas earlier this year, but they assured fans that they would be returning to Central America in due time. Several months later, the couple is still in Arkansas and planning to spend the holidays at home with their families. Which would be fine – were it not for the fact that they’re still collecting donations for their mission work. Last week, Derick tweeted about being at the San Francisco airport on a layover en route to somewhere else. The Facebook page Duggar Family News: Life is Not All Pickles and Hairspray pointed out that he doesn’t seem to be headed to Central America – and he appears to have no shortage of travel funds. “The Dillards said they would be back in Central America by now. They lied,” wrote the page’s administrator . “For some reason Derick flew to San Francisco on his way to somewhere else. I didn’t do great in geography but I’m pretty sure you don’t fly from Arkansas to San Francisco to get to Central America.” The page added: “He doesn’t think he needs to give his donors any information about how he spends their money. He’ll drop clues but he won’t come entirely clean.” If the family issues any statement on this at all (big if ), they’ll likely dismiss it as overly-concerned nit-picking from some obsessive fans. But misappropriation of charitable donations is a huge deal, and while it may not prevent you from getting elected president, it could signal the start of yet another Duggar scandal. Watch Counting On online to remind yourself of just how much the family has swept under the rug in recent years, View Slideshow: The 11 Biggest Duggar Family Scandals of 2015

Derick Dillard Responds to Jill Duggar Pregnancy Rumors

Posted on October 24, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

As you may have heard, there are many, many people who believe that Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard are expecting their second child right now. Right at this very second, Jill could be pregnant with Dillard Baby #2. It’s very possible, and even likely, for a number of reasons. One, their first and only child, precious little Israel, is 18 months old now. That’s 18 entire months, or one and a half years, where there’s been a vacancy in a young, married Duggar woman’s woman. It’s almost inconceivable. Two, in nearly every recent photo of Jill Duggar, the 25-year-old has been hiding her stomach in some way  or another. It’s kind of a weird move if she’s doing it for no reason. Well, there’s always the possibility that she’s doing it solely for attention, that she knows some weird belly covering will get people talking. But let’s give her the benefit of the doubt on that front. Even if we do, however, the evidence of a Jill pregnancy continues to mount … Three, Jessa Duggar is pregnant right now , and the last time she was pregnant, both Jill and Anna Duggar were pregnant at the same time. Wouldn’t it be fun to do all that over again ? And four – and this is probably the biggest reason people think she’s pregnant – Derick himself has said that they’re planning their second child . Earlier this month, TLC released a clip of the couple, and Derick revealed that they are getting down to the business of baby making. Most likely. While “adoption is something Jill and I have talked about in the past,” he said, he thinks “our next child will come about biologically.” So as you can see, there’s a lot to suggest that Jill is following in her mother’s steps of turning her uterus into a clown car. But, according to a recent statement – a brief, but direct statement – from Derick himself, it’s simply not true. On Friday, one of Derick’s Twitter followers asked him if Jill is pregnant with the couple’s second child. His response? “Not yet.” Interesting, and also gross. It’s sort of an odd way to answer that question, isn’t it? It implies that he and Jill are trying for another pregnancy, which brings to mind imagery that we’d rather have never had to experience. It also brings up the Zika issue again. Jill and Derick have spent several months doing missionary work in El Salvador, and they plan on going back soon. That means that if they are trying to get pregnant, they’d be putting the health of their future child at risk. Oh, these silly Duggars …

Jessa Duggar: Jill Living in Another Country is SO HARD For Me!

Posted on October 19, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For most of the past year, Jill Duggar has been living in El Salvador with her husband, Derick Dillard, and son, Israel. The couple spent ten months performing missionary work and living in austere conditions. They’re currently back in their home state of Arkansas, but Jill and Derick say they’re planning to leave the country again soon . They haven’t announced their destination, and they may not even have one in mind yet, but it seems certain that the Dillards won’t be residing in Tontitown for much longer. On last night’s episode of Counting On , we saw Jill and Derick make their triumphant return home. Naturally, they were welcomed by a veritable army of Duggars. “We’re so excited to have Jill and Derick back in town,” Josiah Duggar told the camera at one point. “Nobody wants to miss out on this, so we’re all going to the airport to welcome them.”  Jessa echoed the sentiment, adding: “We’re all really excited. For most everybody, it’s been nearly 10 months since they’ve got to hang out with them and see them in person.” Jessa got more emotional than her siblings when discussing Jill’s return. The sisters have always been close, and after getting married and becoming moms within a year of one another, they have more in common than ever. So it comes as no surprise that Jessa is feeling the pain of Jill’s absence more acutely than her brothers and sisters are. “Jill and I have had so much in common over these past three years,” she continues. “It’s been difficult for me not to have that connection with her, sister to sister – now mom to mom. So we’re looking forward to having them back.” It’s a touching moment that’s made a bit sad by the fact that we now know Jill won’t be home for long. View Slideshow: Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald Photos It seems that Jessa didn’t know that at the time the scene was filmed, but she could’ve assumed that her sister wouldn’t stay in one place very long. Here’s hoping TLC is working on a spinoff in which the Dillards and Seewalds travel the world together Carmen San Diego-style. In the meantime, you can watch Counting On online at TV Fanatic.

Rob Kardashian: SHADING Blac Chyna on Instagram??

Posted on February 14, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s only been a month since Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna became a couple, and their relationship cycle seems to be moving faster than a category 5 hurricane. They’ve reportedly moved in together, and engagement rumors started circling earlier this week after  Blac flaunted a diamond ring on her finger and posted a pic of Rob to Instagram, writing in the caption, “Missing Bae” along with a diamond ring emoji. But is the decline of this relationship nearing as fast as its ascent? We gotta wonder, because Rob just posted this meme to Instagram: Is he talking smack about Blac? ALREADY?? And what’s with the cry face emojis? Up until now, Rob has expressed only positive sentiments about his new lady love. Many skeptics initially believed their union was nothing more than a play by both parties to get back at Rob’s family, but sources close to the sock designer have claimed that it’s a real relationship and he “adores” her. Rob has been known to throw subtle shade on social media without clarification, leaving fans scratching their heads over what he’s really trying to say. But there’s only one person we know of who he’s sleeping with, so it certainly seems as though his target is clear. Perhaps Rob is feeling insecure after sources claim Blac is just using him to get attention . Or maybe he’s a little jelly that Drake wants to tap Blac ass . Whatever the case, we can’t wait to see Blac’s reaction. We’re fairly certain it WON’T be subtle. View Slideshow: Blac Chyna Photos: Her Most Scandalous, Sexy Pics on Instagram!

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Visit the Dillards in El Salvador: Is Jill at Risk??

Posted on February 14, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jill Duggar and her husband Derick Dillard embarked on a mission to El Salvador to do the Lord’s work, but their expedition has been marred with controversy almost since they left. In the past few weeks, speculation arose that the Dillards cut their mission short and returned to Arkansas to avoid catching the Zika virus, which is currently rampant in the Central American country. However, a new photo posted to Facebook confirms that the couple and their son Israel are definitely still in El Salvador, and even welcomed two guests: Jill’s parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar. “Jill’s parents surprised us recently with an impromptu visit for a few days,” Derick wrote on his blog . “It was great to have them with us and get to show them the work the Lord is doing here.” He assured fans that 10-month-old Israel is doing well, loving the fruits and veggies there and was happy to see his grandparents. “Israel definitely enjoyed all the attention when Grandma and Grandpa Duggar came to visit,” wrote Derick. Fans have been concerned about the Dillards’ stay in El Salvador as Zika has been known to cause severe birth defects in pregnant women, and given the family’s stance on shunning birth control, Jill could be at risk. Could Jill be making an exception and using birth control ? If she did in this case, we can’t imagine anyone would fault her for it. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos

Jill Duggar Criticized For Sharing Photo of Bruised Baby Israel

Posted on January 20, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Despite their best efforts, it seems there’s nothing the Duggar family can do to avoid controversy this year.  Obviously, the Josh Duggar sex scandals are still fresh in the minds of many former fans, but lately Jill Duggar and her husband, Derick Dillard, have been drawing almost as much criticism. The latest dust-up concerns the above photo that was posted to the Duggar family’s official Facebook page last week. As you can see, baby Israel appears to be sporting a small bruise above his eye, and Duggar fans are pouncing on the opportunity to point out what they see as further evidence of Jill and Derick’s negligent parenting.  Obviously, kids bump and bruise themselves all the time, and this shouldn’t really be a big deal on its own, but with the response she’s been getting from her photos lately, you’d think Jill would know enough to just take a break from social media for a while.  Last month, Jill posted a photo of Israel in which he appeared to be sporting a different facial bruise.  Followers attacked her both for the injury and for the fact that he was seated in front of non-baby-proofed electrical outlet. Prior to that, Jill shared a photo that prompted Duggar fans to launch a series of bizarre conspiracy theories regarding Derick Dillard’s changing appearance . View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos Like we said, social media has not been Jill’s friend lately. Really the only thing Jill can do now is step away from Instagram and Facebook until this trend of criticizing her every move dies down. Is it fair? Not really, but we’re sure the Dillards are sick of the criticism, and rational discussion has no place in an Internet comment thread. Trust us, Jill. Right now, someone is posting an all-caps, 1,000-word screed about this article without having read a single word of it. We feel your pain. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar Baby Photos
