Sorry if you're upset about that spoiler from last week's Game of Thrones in the headline, but c'mon – it's been a freakin' week! Even if you didn't catch the episode, you've probably heard about the death of Hodor by now. And if you haven't, well – time to join us in mourning! After last week's shocking conclusion, we're eager to move on to some slightly less depressing action, and judging from the photos below, this episode may be just what we're looking for. We didn't think we could hate anyone who makes life hell for the Lannisters, but the High Sparrow's self-righteous douche-baggery got old real fast. Looks like the old bird and his crew of flunkies will finally get their comeuppance this week. We can't wait! Check out the production stills below for a preview of what's in store, and watch Game of Thrones online to get caught up in time for Sunday's episode. #HodorMorghulis 1. Daenerys Rides Again The Khaleesi is back on top! But not in the way that Daario has in mind. 2. Margaery Tyrell’s Walk of Shame Hopefully the Lannister’s plan works out. We can’t stomach another walk of shame. 3. Septa Unella and Her Bell Yes, it’s that damn shame bell again. We’re having flashbacks just looking at it. 4. Lancel Lannister Remember Brother Lancel, aka Lancel Lannister. If not, here’s your refresher: he sucks! 5. High Sparrow Looks Pissed The High Sparrow seems even more outraged than usual. Maybe he’s angry that Donald Trump won’t debate him for charity. Just kidding, Bernie! 6. Happy Arya Arya is pleased. We think we have a good idea why that smile is on her face… View Slideshow
Justin Bieber must be aware that fans aren’t very happy with him these days. Over the past several weeks, Bieber has canceled all meet-and-greets… stopped posing for selfies with supporters… and given a lackluster Billboard Music Awards performance . So, what did Justin do in order to win back those who might be mad at him right now? Simple: he took off almost all of his clothing! In a new, VERY revealing Instagram photo, The Biebs is showing off The Body, posing in nothing but his tight underwear and grabbing his bulging penis while doing so. Really. You can see for yourself here: Bieber simply captioned the pic with “mycalvins,” a reference to his long-time ad campaign on behalf of Calvin Klein. We’re guessing the company is happy to receive such free publicity. Bieber and his penis, of course, have a long and interesting history on the Internet. Late last year, a photo of Justin Bieber naked leaked online after a paparazzi member snapped pictures of him on vacation in Bora Bora. The superstar reacted to the incident with understandable outrage, unlike the Internet, whose reactions you can see below: View Slideshow: Justin Bieber Naked: Twitter Reacts! However, Bieber is also an underwear model and said in a recent Calvin Klein ad that he was turned on while talking to the camera . Still, there’s a big difference in a celebrity voluntarily shedding articles of clothing, as Justin is doing here, while still keeping his most private part covered up… … versus a photographer invading his privacy and capturing the bare unit itself for a photo. What do you think of Bieber’s NSFW selfie? Is it too raw? Too raunchy? Or just too gosh darn sexy? Can you imagine the fallout if Kim Kardashian released the same sort of nearly-nude picture? Is there a double standard at work here? Or should we just shut up and show you more Justin Bieber shirtless snapshot. Okay then. Sorry… View Slideshow: 36 HAWT Photos of Justin Bieber Shirtless
If anyone’s marriage has been put to the test, it’s Josh and Anna Duggar’s. In the past year, we’ve discovered the dark side of Josh, who admitted to molesting several young children, including his sisters, plus was caught on the Ashley Madison website seeking out extramarital affairs. And if that wasn’t enough, Josh was also accused of physically and mentally abusing a porn star with whom he paid to have sex. And if THAT wasn’t enough (I know, right?), all this went down while Anna was pregnant with their fourth child. While Josh completed a months-long stint in a faith-based rehab for addiction to sex and pornography, that was only one part of recovery for the couple. Yesterday, Josh and Anna released a statement on the Duggar Family blog, announcing that they were in couples therapy in order to “heal” their relationship. A section of the post reads: View Slideshow: Josh Duggar Sex Scandal Timeline: How His Family’s Empire Crumbled “Since the residential treatment program ended, we have been working with a professional marriage and family counselor to take important steps toward healing. “It isn’t easy and some days are very difficult. It is a long road to rebuild trust and a truly healthy relationship. “We are very thankful for God’s forgiveness, grace and help, as it is our strength and guide to rebuilding our lives.” They also say they are taking it “one day at a time” and are grateful for fans’ prayers. While many women would’ve kicked Josh’s buttocks to the curb upon hearing just one of his incredible misdeeds, Anna remains trapped in committed to their marriage because of her faith . A rumor surfaced earlier this week that the couple were expecting their fifth child , but we’ve yet to hear a confirmation from the family. We have heard, though, that Josh is still behaving like an arrogant POS , so let’s hope marriage counseling is more effective than rehab.

Earlier this week, we reported that Justin Bieber ended his feud with Taylor Swift by appealing to her ego. The Biebs took to Instagram to croon one of Taylor’s earliest hits, “Teardrops on My Guitar,” and it looks like the shameless ploy to get back into her good graces was somewhat effective. Taylor eventually “liked” the clip, though it’s worth noting that the usually-effusive singer didn’t offer any praise in the comments section. Fans know that the feud between Swift and Bieber dates back to around the time Justin first started getting romantic with Selena Gomez. It seems Taylor knew Justin was trouble when he walked in, and she cautioned her against taking him back after each of the many times the couple broke up. In fact, sources say Justin blames Taylor for the fact that he and Selena are no longer together. So what does it mean that Justin reached out (in a very small way) to Taylor on Instagram this week? Well, some believe it’s the latest effort in Justin’s ongoing campaign to win Selena back . As we’ve learned from all of his other public feuds, Justin is rarely the first to apologize. He reached out to Seth Rogen during their random intra-Canadian beef, but only because he wanted the comic to appear at his Comedy Central Roast. It seems the M.O. is that Justin will bury the hatchet – but only if he wants something. We’re guessing that in this case, what he wants is a second chance with Selena. And clearly he feels that Taylor is the one who can give him that chance. The whole thing is clearly part of Bieber’s effort to prove that he’s matured. Unfortunately, trying to impress a girl by going through her friends is tres middle school, but who knows – maybe it’ll pay off.

The Duggar family mantra is “Say No To Birth Control, Any Method of Birth Control,” so everyone is going to have to prepare themselves for Josh and Anna Duggar baby news. I’m shocked she isn’t already, quite frankly. Fresh off his faith-based rehab stint for a porn addiction, admission of cheating and alleged child molestation, Josh has probably had sex with his wife at least once, given the fact that Anna is his wife and married couples are known to fornicate. A source told In Touch that this is deffo the case. “I would have hoped they’d have put the brakes on sex after he got out [of rehab], but they are back to their normal sex routine ,” the source said. “I would not be surprised one bit if Anna is already pregnant.” With no formal education or marketable workplace skills, Anna’s only real job is procreation, the way the Lord intended. “It’s the last thing their family needs right now,” the source added. Josh just got out of rehab, and considering the family’s financial future is uncertain, the financial burden of a fifth child is the last thing Anna and Josh need.” View Slideshow: 21 Controversial Duggar Family Quotes A great observation, yes. But these people are cut from a different cloth. The kind of cloth that has produced 19 kids (and counting!). PS, rehab hasn’t changed Josh. He’s still acting like a douche bag. The oldest Duggar accompanied Anna to her grandmother’s funeral after his release, and “I was expecting Josh to be much more humble and quiet, a less arrogant person after everything he’d done, but nope,” Amy Duggar King the source said. “He was the same old Josh , constantly talking, full of himself, really aggressive and making Anna do everything — not helpful to her at all.” He sounds like a catch. “It may be too early to make any announcement,” the insider concluded. “But there is almost no chance that Anna is not pregnant by now.” View Slideshow: 13 Reasons Why Anna Duggar Should Leave Josh NOW

As we learned from a recently released preview, tonight’s episode of Jill and Jessa: Counting On features a scene in which the Duggars visit an orphanage in El Salvador. Jill Duggar Visits Orphanage: Is She Adopting or Exploiting? At first, many fans theorized that the scene was an indication that Jill and Derick would be adopting their next child. But now, a different Duggar daughter has revealed that she’s seriously considering expanding her family through adoption: “We have many friends who have walked this road, so we have seen firsthand the amazing power of adoption,” Jessa tells Us Weekly in a new interview. “There are so many kids out there who are longing for the love of a family, and we feel strongly about opening our hearts and our home to welcome them in.” Jessa has talked about adoption in the past, revealing that she and husband Ben Seewald would “would love to adopt many kids.” While Jessa says she’s excited about the prospect of welcoming a new Duggar, she was careful to note that she and Ben are currently focused on raising baby Spurgeon, and have no immediate plans to give him any brothers or sisters. View Slideshow: Jessa Duggar Baby Photos: Welcome #BabySeewald! “We don’t know what the future holds, but as the Bible says, ‘Man plans his way, and God directs his steps,'” Jessa says. “So we want to move forward with paperwork and a home study, and just be ready for however God opens those doors.” Will she try to outdo her famously fertile folks in the offspring department? Don’t count on it. “It’s not really about any specific number, but cherishing and loving the ones God brings to us – whether that be just one, or whether it be more, we’ll be grateful.” Watch Jill & Jessa: Counting On online to get caught up in time for tonight’s trip to the orphanage. (Which may well end with a surprise adoption.) View Slideshow: Jessa Duggar Baby Bump Pics: 1 & Counting!
Like last Tuesday’s premiere, Jill & Jessa: Counting On Season 2 Episode 2 offered insight into the lives of some lesser-known Duggars. Most notably and awesomely, “Cinderella” herself, Jana … Watch Jill & Jessa Counting On Season 2 Episode 2 Online You don’t have to watch Jill & Jessa Counting On online to know that Jill and Jessa are but two of 19 Duggars, with kids of their own now. That makes for a lot of kids – and littler kids – in the fold. Jana Duggar, despite being the oldest daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle (she and twin John David are 26), often gets lost in the shuffle. Still unattached, Jana’s love life has been the subject of massive speculation for years among card-carrying members of Duggar Nation. Her love life, in a manner of speaking. Or lack thereof. As anticipated, Jana opened up about being single on Jill & Jessa: Counting On Season 2 Episode 2 Tuesday night. What did she say? “Maybe, you know, I’ll meet the one and get married and have kids and stuff,” she mused when asked where she sees herself in five years. She’s in no hurry, however, for one simple reason. No, not because she’s controlled by her sisters : Jana has high standards and none of her potential courtship candidates have met them! “There have been different guys who’ve come along and asked … but they haven’t been the right one, and so it’s just one of those things.” “I’m not just out to get married to the first one that comes along,” she revealed. “I mean, sometimes it can be tempting, in those moments.” Jana noted that it can be tough when “your siblings that are married and have little ones are going out on dates and doing their things.” Still, the beautiful reality star insisted that instead of obsessing over getting married, she’s “being busy where God has me right now.” Where God has her – or Jim Bob, Michelle, Josh, Jessa and Jill order her – has been the topic of much debate among her fans. Asked by producers what she thought of the fact that people think all she does is cook and take care of babies, Jana laughed. “I don’t always like to be on the forefront,” she admits. “But I enjoy the behind-the-scenes and working on different projects,” she mused. “I don’t only cook and take care of babies. Surprise!” Her immediate goal? “Just go on with life.” Solid. What that meant in terms of last night’s episode was to install canned lighting throughout a house and manage a construction crew. Jana Duggar. A Renaissance Woman of many talents. View Slideshow: Duggar Family Members: The Official Power Rankings! The ring-leader of the Duggar Construction Co. LLC (not an official company, but they might as well be) set her sights on Jessa’s home. “I think all projects end up being a little bit more complicated than what you expect if you’re trying out something new,” she explained. The lights she installed looked great, we gotta say. While she was running that show, many Duggars traveled to Central America for missionary work and to visit Jill and Derick Dillard. Though cameras didn’t follow them on their journey – Jim Bob and Michelle were criticized for going – it seemed to go well, to Jana’s relief. Jessa and Ben Seewald, meanwhile, decided it was high time they went on a date – their first since the birth of baby Spurgeon in November. The destination? Tacos 4 Life. According to Jessa, it was “a romantic date location” despite its shabby appearance. Hey, date night is all about the company, right?! As they often do, the happily married Seewalds discussed their plans to adopt children – early and often – once Spurge gets a little older.

It’s been a tumultuous year for the 19 Kids and Counting clan, but after a year of scandals and exposed secrets, the Duggars are ready to return to television next week, with a full season of their spinoff series, Jill & Jessa: Counting On . Based on the Counting On trailer released yesterday, Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard will mainly participate from afar, as the couple is still performing missionary work in Central America . Fortunately, the distance and their rustic living conditions haven’t prevented the Dillards from keeping in touch with fans. Jill posted the above photo last night, along with a lengthy caption singing the praises of her husband, who turns 27 today: “ Since I’m on wifi today…I wanna say happy birthday to the most amazing man in the whole world, my hubby! I love you more than you know @derickdillard. “You are so caring and thoughtful and an amazing dad! Thank you for the late night talks, a shoulder to cry on, painting my nails, and helping with the little things like late night diaper changes, dishes and laundry at just the right times! “I love watching Israel’s face light up when he sees you and watching the way you interact with him.He loves playing fútbol with his papa! You’re my knight in shining armor and the of my life! “I’m blessed beyond measure! I love you and Israel does too! I pray every year you’ll be closer to Jesus than the year before!” the reality star shared, adding the hashtags, “#HappyBirthday #lovemyhubby #celebrateonedayearly #honeymoonpic. ” Derick isn’t the only member of the Duggars’ inner circle to celebrate a birthday recently. Jill’s troubled older brother, Josh Duggar, turned 28 last week, and he also celebrated from afar. Though instead of performing missionary work in El Salvador, Josh is undergoing sex addiction treatment in Illinois. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos
After the cancelation of 19 Kids and Counting last summer , some thought (and many hoped) that the Duggars would never return to television. Now, the biggest brood in reality TV is coming back to TLC with a full season of Jill & Jessa: Counting On, which the network test-ran as a limited run spinoff in December. The first Counting On teaser didn't offer much in the way of new information. The full trailer released today, however, gives us a good idea of what to expect from the Duggar gang. There are some light scenes such as when Jana and Jinger are asked about courting . (They dodge the question like seasoned pros.) Or when things get dangerous after the Duggars decide to “go big” while constructing a tree house for the compound. But, of course, there are darker moments, as well, such as when Anna Duggar opens about the highly-publicized infidelity of her husband, Josh: “I don’t know what I’m stepping into,” she tells the camera. “I don’t know how to handle each situation…It’s not anything I ever would have thought I would walk through.” Like we said, things get heavy. Fortunately, Ben Seewald is there to provide unintentional comic relief by attempting to rap and change a diaper.
