Mel B And Stephen Belafonte Take Kids To Family Therapy Even though they’ve each been spotted out and about still rocking their wedding rings after news of their divorce proceedings went public …Mel B and Stephen Belafonte are still pressing forward with their plans to split — for now, anyway. The couple took a big step toward being more amicable on Wednesday, according to TMZ . They, along with their four children, took a trip to the psychiatrist for a family therapy session. However Mel and Stephen took separate cars to the therapist’s office, while their four daughters, ages 5, 9, 12 and 18, arrived in a third car with the family nanny. Sources say that despite their anger and mountain of differences between them, Stephen and Mel really want to make sure their kids are okay with the transition in their lives. This is apparently the first time the two of them have been able to be in the same room in a cordial fashion for some time. Sources also confirm that up to this point in their split, a session like this would have been damn near impossible. Well at least they’re being mature about it! They were very buddy-buddy just a month ago…so perhaps with this new time they’re spending together they’ll be able to reconcile their differences and either move on peacefully OR come to enough common ground to work through it all.

Texas teacher Sarah Fowlkes, 27, is accused of having improper sexual relations with a student, a minor who was just 17 years old. Not that it seems to bother her all that much, based on her mug shot: “Yeah, girl! Way to get that D!” – Sarah to herself above . We kid, obviously, but one has to wonder how any individual – no matter how photogenic – is in that kind of mood while getting arrested. For a sex crime, no less. Just bizarre. In any case … A warrant was issued for her arrest for an alleged improper relationship with the male student, according to CHS Austin affiliate KEYE-TV. The Lockhart Police Department confirms that Fowlkes is accused of engaging in said conduct with a student at Lockhart High School. Lockhart Independent School District administrators learned of the alleged romance on March 10, just prior to the school’s spring break. Authorities said that they determined through a series of interviews that Fowlkes had in fact engaged in sexual contact with the student. The victim’s name has not been released, as he is underage. “It shocked me, especially since I used to go here,” River Morgan, a 2016 Lockhart High School graduate, said regarding the scandal. “I just feel like the teacher should know better than to do that,” Joe Chapa, another 2016 grad, told the Austin station that broke the story. Parents picking up students at Lockhart High School this week said they were surprised and disappointed, in the understatement of all time. Some said that the social media age doesn’t help matters. While it’s not an excuse, the easy online interaction between teachers and students makes it challenging to keep relations professional. “I feel like it makes it easier for an accidental relationship like that to happen,” Chapa said. “I think maybe there’s not as much of a distance.” “It should be much more professional.” Superintendent Susan Bohn emailed Lockhart High School parents on Monday to notify them of Fowlkes’ arrest and suspension, writing: “Lockhart parents entrust their children to us every day, and it is something we do not take lightly. Student safety is the district’s most important priority.” “As soon as we learned of the report, we acted swiftly to involve law enforcement and CPS to conduct a thorough investigation.” “The district does not and will not tolerate any improper communication or contact between a teacher and child,” Bohn added. Fowlkes has been with the district since 2014. According to her bio on the high school’s website, she taught anatomy (Did she ever! Too soon?), physiology and environmental systems. She previously taught third and fifth grade, but “Fowlkes will not return to the school district” in any capacaity, Bohn said in her statement. According to reports, Sarah Fowlkes celebrated her birthday along with her husband of four years before turning herself in to the authorities. Hey, you might as well enjoy it while it lasts, right? Perhaps that explains the carefree, blissful mood in her booking photo above. #BirthdayVibes She was booked into the Caldwell County Jail. View Slideshow: 27 Teachers 2 Hot 4 Students
Earlier this week, we reported that Javi Marroquin is dating Madison Channing Walls , also a reality star from an MTV series. The news drew a decidedly mixed reaction from fans, given Javi’s recent divorce from Kailyn Lowry and Walls’ checkered past. She starred on a show called Real World: Skeletons for a reason. The 27-yaer-old has openly admitted to struggling with heroin addiction, though she now says she’s been sober for more two years. Apparently there are some in Javi’s inner-circle who don’t believe Walls is not an ideal mother figure for Marroquin’s son, Lincoln. Not surprisingly, one of those skeptics is none other than Lincoln’s mother, the pregnant Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry. Sources tell Radar Online that Kailyn found out about her ex-husband’s new romance the same way the rest of the world did. Lowry reportedly felt “blindsided” when Javi and Madison announced their relationship on social media via the above and below images. “Kail doesn’t know anything about a new girlfriend,” an insider told the celebrity gossip site on the day of the bog announcement. Of course, that may not be entirely Javi’s fault. Javi is forbidden to contact Kailyn due to a protection from abuse order Lowry sought and obtained from a judge in February. Kailyn says it’s because Javi entered her home without permission, a recent event that was chronicled on their MTV show. Marroquin, who says he never has or would lay a hand on Lowry (nor has she alleged as much), tells a different story, though. “She said it’s because I harassed her via text about all this divorce and guy stuff,” Marroquin told Radar at the time of the filing. Javi explains that the order sounds worse than it is: “I signed a consent PFA, which means there’s no evidence of abuse. I just can’t contact her unless it’s in regards to Lincoln for a year.” We suppose finding out from Twitter that your ex is dating someone new is one of the downsides of obtaining a protective order. Anyway, now that she’s been informed of the relationship, the mother of two (soon to be three) is reportedly less than pleased. Apparently it’s not only Madison’s past substance abuse issues, which she’s been very open about, that have Kailyn upset. Madison has experienced at least one recent brush with the law, having been arrested for shoplifting from a CVS in 2013. Walls claims that the theft in question was one of many mistakes she made as a result of her lengthy and serious battle with addiction. She insists that she’s completely turned her life around since welcoming a daughter, Harper, with Real World co-star Tony Raines. Sources close to Kailyn say that’s another issue. She’s not happy that Javi may soon have another child in his life, as she feels it may draw his attention away from their son Lincoln. Of course, Kailyn is pregnant with her third child at the moment, having said she didn’t want any more kids – to Javi – just last year. So she can’t really say much on that score. View Slideshow: Madison Channing Walls: Who is Javi Marroquin’s New Squeeze? The recent break-in pretty much summed up the state of Javi and Kailyn’s relationship these days, as emotions are running high. “You have to understand how crazy you’ve made me for six months,” Javi says, as if that justifies being a home-invading psycho. Kailyn told him not to call her a ho and defended her own actions, denying that she “slept with all these dudes” as he worded it. They came together on the reunion after this incident and seemed to make at least some progress toward amicable co-existence. With the news that he’s dating someone, however, old wounds are likely to be reopened and their issues exacerbated once again. Here’s hoping cooler heads eventually prevail.

As much as Betty and Veronica, Ginger and Mary Ann, or Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston represent (at least on a superficial level) two very different archetypes of feminity. They’re both accomplished, intelligent, beautiful women, but from the outsider’s perspective, they seem to bring very different vibes to the relationship table: As she’s been portrayed by the tabloid press, Angleina is the love child of Oprah and the sunglasses that Bono wore when he met the Pope. She’s an insanely erudite and well-traveled citizen of the world. She hobnobs with heads of state and speaks languages that haven’t been invented yet. By contrast, Aniston, perhaps unfairly, has been characterized as an equally bright, but far more “down-to-earth” alternative. She happily raunches it up with the guys in low-brow bro-comedies and feels no shame about having gotten her start on a sitcom where she co-starred with monkey. She’s probably even drank domestic beer while watching football. Think Amazing Amy’s “cool girl” rant from Gone Girl. Obviously, both of these descriptions are unfair and serve to minimize both women and their achievements, but they form the framework of the narrative that is Brad Pitt’s love life, as it’s been told by the tabloid press. Pitt left Aniston in favor of the more exotic, more challenging Jolie. Now that Angelina has filed for divorce , gossip columnists naturally have him running back to the simpler life he left behind. In fairness, it’s a hypothesis that’s not entirely unsupported, as several media outlets have reported that Pitt and Aniston are back in contact and texting on a regular basis. Tellingly, neither party has denied the rumor. Journalist and self-appointed Brangelina expert Ian Halperin spoke about the situation in a recent interview with Star magazine, revealing that he thinks there’s good reason to believe that Jolie’s greatest fear is a Brad and Jen reconciliation: “I truly believe that Angie always harbored the fear that Brad and Jen were secretly in contact and might reconnect,” Ian tells the tabloid. An anonymous source recently made a similar claim to Hollywood Life. “Angie is quite jealous and insecure,” says the tipster. “She really wanted Brad to distance himself from Jen completely after he left her. No matter how much Brad assured her, Angie, deep down, always feared he would go back to Jen.” Getting back together would be a good way for both Brad and Jen to direct a colossal middle finger toward Angie, and they would both have reason to want to do so, Of course, there’s the small matter of the fact that Jen is married to Justin Theroux , but we’re sure that can be sorted out. After all, you only get one chance to screw over your rival like this, and if Justin really loves Jen, wouldn’t he’d let her do it? No, but it’s still fun to think about.

As you’ve no doubt heard by now, Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt back in September, a move reportedly spurred by a confrontation between Brad and his eldest son aboard a private jet. You’re probably also aware that Jennifer Aniston married Justin Theroux back in 2015 in a low key ceremony held in the couple’s backyard. So it might seem that the timing isn’t exactly ideal for Brad to try and reconcile with his first wife, but when you’re Brad Pitt, no romantic conquest is impossible. According to Us Weekly, Pitt went to great lengths to track down Jen’s cell phone number so that he could wish her a happy 48th birthday last month. Sources tell the magazine that Pitt tracked Aniston’s number down via a “tangled web” of contacts and that the actress immediately opened up to the idea of forming a friendship with her ex. “They started talking once he wished her a happy birthday,” the insider claims. What started as a casual catching-up reportedly developed into a shoulder-to-cry-on situation, with Brad opening up to Jen about the pain of his sudden divorce. It’s easy to imagine Jen hanging up with a hearty “HA!” considering Brad left her for Angelina after five years of marriage, but apparently she made a genuine effort to console her ex. “[Pitt] has confided in Jen,” reveals the source. “Brad told her he’s having a hard time with his split and they exchanged a few texts reminiscing about the past.” Considering past reports that Pitt and Theroux have passive-aggressively butted heads, you might think that Jen’s new man would have a problem with her serving as Brad’s amateur therapist. But apparently, he and Jen are so content and stable in their marriage that he’s actually glad she’s making an effort to help Brad. “Justin is OK with them being friends,” says the insider. “[He knows] Jen just wants to be nice.” It’s not every day that tabloids downplay drama, which is enough to make us think there’s some truth to this story. Maybe Brad and Jen can work out a Ross and Rachel-type scenario in which they remain close platonic friends, despite all that they’ve been through together.

Milo Yiannopoulos is a douchebag of the highest degree . Just a terrible, terrible person. After building a career on being reprehensible and bigoted and disgusting, it turns out that endorsing pedophilia was what ultimately crossed the line for his supporters . “In the homosexual world particularly,” Milo said in a recently resurfaced video, “some of those relationships between younger boys and older men — the sort of 'coming of age' relationships — those relationships in which those older men help those young boys discover who they are and give them security and safety and provide them with love and a reliable, sort of rock, where they can't speak to their parents.” In the same video, he also said “I'm grateful for Father Michael. I wouldn't give nearly such good head if it wasn't for him.” He's been seeing the fallout from those statement for the past few days, and now the backlash has gotten so bad that he's resigned from his position as senior editor at Breitbart. In his statement, he explained that “I would be wrong to allow my poor choice of words to detract from my colleagues' important reporting.” But whatever his reasoning, the point is that his career is falling apart. And Twitter could not be more excited. 1. Milo’s Statement Milo did a press conference to discuss his resignation, but here’s the gist of it. 2. “This Decision is Mine Alone” You keep telling yourself what you need to, Milo. 3. Get a Haircut Solid advice, really. 4. The Dream Hey, here’s hoping he fades away. Recent evidence proves we’re not that lucky though. 5. Not the White House! It is a current trend for the lowest of the low to get employed there, huh? 6. Sorry, Breitbart Still Sucks Milo’s not THAT powerful. View Slideshow
