Do people love Jennifer Lawrence? Yes, of course they do — approximately 99.9% of humans absolutely adore her. Look it up. Do people love Chris Pratt? Yes, of course they do — though we're not prepared to throw out statistics, since that weird, sad story about his and Anna Faris' dog kind of threw us all for a loop. So you take Jennifer and Chris, who are both hilarious and attractive and goofy and lovely, you throw them in a movie together, and it'll be great, right? They'll make best friends, everyone will be very happy, and nothing bad could ever possibly come from it. And for a while, it was like that. They did Passengers, they've been promoting Passengers, and it's been good. But then, this happened. J Law and C Pratt did a little interview for BBC, and this video you're about to see contains nearly five straight minutes of the two of them swapping insults. Jen goes after his intelligence, his toughness, and she even brings his family into it — his adorable wife, Anna, and their three-year-old son, Jack. Meanwhile, Chris is absolutely BRUTAL about her career , and her appearance. Check out the fight in the clip below:
Tragedy has struck Louis Tomlinson and his family. As previously reported on The Hollywood Gossip, Tomlinson’s mother, Johannah Deakin , died on Wednesday after a battle with Leukemia. She was only 42 years old at the time of her passing. Following two days of private mourning, Tomlinson’s family released a statement that confirmed this horrible news. It reads as follows: “It is with immeasurable sadness that Johannah Deakin’s family said goodbye to Johannah in the early hours of Wednesday 7th December 2016. “Earlier this year Johannah was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of leukemia that required immediate and continuous treatment. We respectfully request that the family are given time and space to grieve in private.” Along with the beloved One Direction member, Deakin is survived by six other kids: Lottie, 18, Felicite, 16, twins Daisy and Phoebe, 12, and twins Ernest and Doris, 2. Our hearts goes out to all of them. And not just our heart, but the hearts of nearly everyone who knows Tomlinson well. In the wake of this terrible development, many stars have reached out via social media and sent Tomlinson their condolences. Here’s a look at what they said over Twitter, Instagram and other platforms: Liam Payne : “I’m so sorry for you my brother my heart aches for you, just know I love you the same from a million miles away as I do right next to you. I’m always here for you through everything as you have been for me.” Cheryl Cole : “@Louis_Tomlinson my heart breaks for you. I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you and your loved ones at this incredibly tragic time.” Zayn Malik : “@Louis_Tomlinson love you bro! All of your family is in my prayers. proud of your strength and know your mum is too x.” Simon Cowell : “Heartbroken for you @Louis_Tomlinson. Your mum Jay was an incredible person. Sending you all my love.” Among other well wishes sent the singer’s way: The most moving message of all, though, came from Tomlinson’s own sister, Félicité, who simply posted the image of a broken heart. What else was there for her to even say, right? Tomlinson will reportedly go through with his previously scheduled appearance on The X Factor on Saturday as his mother’s final wish. We cannot imagine the pain he and his siblings are experiencing right now and we will continue to send them our thoughts and prayers.
Fair or foul??? Shirley Caesar Sues To Remove “U Name It” Challenge Pastor Shirley Caesar has had enough of people profiting off her sermon and she’s filed an injunction to stop its unauthorized use. DJ Suede who originated the viral #UNameItChallenge, has been hit with a lawsuit after attorneys say Ceaser’s suffered $5 million in losses. Furthermore, his videos “violated” Caesar’s Christian brand and should be removed. CBS 46 reports: Caesar’s lead attorney, James Walker, saying a judge agrees with Caesar’s claim that at least one of DJ Suede’s videos needed to be taken down. Walker said the judge decided the video, which is linked below, and its several images of alcohol “violate the brand, image and name of a Christian pastor”, referring to Caesar. Walker said, as of Thursday evening, the video was still up. “DJ Suede and his management were in conversations with her lawyer. They didn’t reach an agreement and they put it out anyway,” Hatchett said. DJ Suede Walker says an initial remix of the video, also shown below, was a hit with Caesar and her family. During the craze of the “You Name it Challenge”, it was one of many that were posted on social media. “Unknown to us, he made the second video,” Walker said. As previously reported Shirley’s also profiting via her #UNameItChallenge with merchandise. Do YOU think DJ Suede should take down his #UNameItChallenge videos??? More details of her lawsuit on the flip.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is almost unquestionably the most highly-anticipated film of 2016. And, of course, as with any major Star Wars release, the film became the subject of intense online scrutiny months before its release, thus generating word-of-mouth that usually serves as free advertising for Disney. Now, however, a week before it hits theaters, Rogue One is at the center of a heated debate that could wind up hurting its box office receipts for the most bizarre reason imaginable. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Trailer Released! Watch Now! Past Star Wars controversies have centered around mixed responses to story developments within the franchise, or retroactive changes to the original films. Sadly, the Rogue One debate has taken a much more sinister tone that says more about our nation’s current political climate than about George Lucas’ film franchise. On Thursday, the hashtag #DumpStarWars began trending on Twitter, and it quickly became clear to any fan who investigated that this was not the result of some spirited critiques of the series’ creative shortcomings. While it’s unclear how it originated, the hashtag has proven popular among white nationalists and members of the “alt-right,” both movements that have been tied to the KKK and other hate groups. The most common complaint is that the film (which the outraged have not yet seen) is “anti-white” and espouses a “feminist agenda,” because the cast is multi-cultural and the film’s main character is a woman. The baffling outrage began back when the first Rogue One trailer was released online several months ago, with YouTube commenters describing the film as “nothing but a Jew masturbation fantasy of anti-White hate.” The bigoted movement gained steam back in November, when two of the film’s screenwriters, Chris Weitz and Gary Whitta, pointed out that the Empire has always been an obvious metaphor for Hitler’s regime. “Please note that the Empire is a white supremacist (human) organization,” Chris Weitz tweeted. Whitta retweeted the statement, adding: “Opposed by a multi-cultural group led by brave women.” Indeed, fantasy and science-fiction films and literature have a long history of advancing (usually left-wing) political causes, but don’t tell that to the chronically butthurt boycotters who are currently stamping their tiny feet and holding their breath til they turn blue all over social media. Some lowlights (complete with newly-trendy #FakeNews): “Stop using your multiculturalism anti-American agenda in a science fiction Disney movie. We just want to enjoy a fun movie.” “Just got a full refund on my Rogue One tickets. Keep your politics out of my galaxy.” “Star Wars writers rewrote and reshot Rogue One to add in Anti Trump scenes calling him a racist. Disgusting.” “Rogue One is an anti-Trump propaganda film. BOYCOTT!!! Trump supporters!” “#DumpStarWars Race baiting will not be tolerated.” On the sane side, the situation might be best summed up by David Slack, who tweeted: “If Star Wars — an obvious allegory about Nazism — feels like an attack on your candidate, the problem isn’t with Star Wars…” Of course, our favorite #DumpStarWars tweet belongs to the incomparable Patirck Monahan, who writes: “After the election they changed the title of ROGUE ONE to DONALD TRUMP HAS A TINY WIENER? I’ll be spending my money elsewhere!” On point as always, @PattyMo. As for the anticipated impacted on the film’s bottom line – something tells us Disney will be just fine.
Keke Palmer is known for being open and honest about literally everything. She really is just a gift that way. She never holds back, she’s always a delight, and honestly, we’re just so glad that the world worked out in a way that we get to experience her wondrousness firsthand. For her latest act of greatness, Keke took it upon herself to defend none other than Kylie Jenner. See, our girl got a little upset after seeing this meme of Kylie that had been making the rounds: The meme shows Kylie back in 2012, when she was just 15 years old, before all the changes she’s made to her looks. Back then, according to the photo, people used to say “Kylie’s so ugly! Why can’t she just grow up?” It shows that photo beside a current photo of Kylie, one that showcases all her (alleged!) surgical enhancements . But the new Kylie apparently has people saying “Ew, Kylie’s so fake! What happened to her?” Yes, it seems like poor Kylie, in the eyes of many, has always been in a sort of “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” situation when it comes to her appearance . That’s awful. And Keke simply will not stand for it. She shared the meme, and along with it, she shared this lengthy but heartfelt message: After Trump’s win, I really was convinced that we have become so obsessed with making things appear to be real than needing them to actually BE real. AKA: Reality [television emoji] , that’s the gag. Reality television is based off of the desire WE HAVE to see non scripted shows that MIMIC reality, “false things appearing real” that’s the ART of it, how they can make us THINK it is. And many social media platforms support that same thing. We have settled for knock off truth in our actual reality because it’s socially acceptable to lie for likes. Looking at this photo above I couldn’t help but stop dead in my tracks because even though I do feel like this family sets an example that it’s good to change for societies affection, how can you blame them? We don’t think that this young woman deserves the attention she receives because of the message it sends but we don’t even think about the fact that for years the whole world damn near agreed that she was ugly. A CHILD, that girl was a child and she was bullied and named ugly, and not as a character but as HERSELF … And unlike some that experience such ridicule she had the $$$ to change, she “fixed” what the world said was broken and it worked! Now you are mad that it was that easy? When the generation has already been force fed to love things that are false and appear as real. We are confused! So many of us on who we should be and how we should act, who we should like and how we should pursue them. It’s all been brought to another level because being fraudulent is our countries most popular trend. If only we could accept one another instead of bullying each other into change. We wouldn’t be so confused or misunderstanding all of these mixed messages that ultimately tell us to trade attention for respect and love for possession. We could instead let our differences TEACH us something new instead of walking around looking, acting and being the same. WE DIFFERENT FOR A REASON. Preach, Keke. Preach.

In 2009 maybe it was 2010, Lady Gaga was in Canada for an event. She was in the VIP booth at some after party with Perez Hilton – surrounded by security…not wearing pants…and I moved into their booth area, I was fucking wasted and I ended up reaching around her security…and violating her ass…grabbing it, originally to get noticed so I could say something obnoxious, but when she didn’t react I just kept going at it…grabbing her ass like I had never grabbed a stranger’s ass before..she didn’t even fucking notice…so trigger my ass… I am really not the kind of dude who just grabs random chicks, but she’s not random, she was just starting out, and it just sort of happened….I can’t remember grabbing any ass before or after hers, not uninvited anyway….and the entire time I was GRABBING that ass, hard…she didn’t fucking flinch, notice, react.. So when I read about her PTSD that she posted on her charity site – like a fucking soldier in combat who has seen some shit……I have a hard time believing her bullshit…Celebs are liars…they are babies…they are crazy people… She posted this to her scam charity site… I have wrestled for some time about when, how and if I should reveal my diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). After five years of searching for the answers to my chronic pain and the change I have felt in my brain, I am finally well enough to tell you. There is a lot of shame attached to mental illness, but it’s important that you know that there is hope and a chance for recovery. It is a daily effort for me, even during this album cycle, to regulate my nervous system so that I don’t panic over circumstances that to many would seem like normal life situations. Examples are leaving the house or being touched by strangers who simply want to share their enthusiasm for my music. I also struggle with triggers from the memories I carry from my feelings of past years on tour when my needs and requests for balance were being ignored. I was overworked and not taken seriously when I shared my pain and concern that something was wrong. I ultimately ended up injured on the Born This Way Ball. That moment and the memory of it has changed my life forever. The experience of performing night after night in mental and physical pain ingrained in me a trauma that I relive when I see or hear things that remind me of those days. I also experience something called dissociation which means that my mind doesn’t want to relive the pain so “I look off and I stare” in a glazed over state. As my doctors have taught me, I cannot express my feelings because my pre-frontal cortex (the part of the brain that controls logical, orderly thought) is overridden by the amygdala (which stores emotional memory) and sends me into a fight or flight response. My body is in one place and my mind in another. It’s like the panic accelerator in my mind gets stuck and I am paralyzed with fear. When this happens I can’t talk. When this happens repeatedly, it makes me have a common PTSD reaction which is that I feel depressed and unable to function like I used to. It’s harder to do my job. It’s harder to do simple things like take a shower. Everything has become harder. Additionally, when I am unable to regulate my anxiety, it can result in somatization, which is pain in the body caused by an inability to express my emotional pain in words. But I am a strong and powerful woman who is aware of the love I have around me from my team, my family and friends, my doctors and from my incredible fans who I know will never give up on me. I will never give up on my dreams of art and music. I am continuing to learn how to transcend this because I know I can. If you relate to what I am sharing, please know that you can too. Traditionally, many associate PTSD as a condition faced by brave men and women that serve countries all over the world. While this is true, I seek to raise awareness that this mental illness affects all kinds of people, including our youth. I pledge not only to help our youth not feel ashamed of their own conditions, but also to lend support to those servicemen and women who suffer from PTSD. No one’s invisible pain should go unnoticed. I am doing various modalities of psychotherapy and am on medicine prescribed by my psychiatrist. However, I believe that the most inexpensive and perhaps the best medicine in the world is words. Kind words…positive words…words that help people who feel ashamed of an invisible illness to overcome their shame and feel free. This is how I and we can begin to heal. I am starting today, because secrets keep you sick. And I don’t want to keep this secret anymore. A note from my psychologist, drnancy; If you think you might have PTSD, please seek professional help. There is so much hope for recovery. Many people think that the event that stimulated PTSD needs to be the focus. Yet often, people will experience the same event and have completely different reactions to it. It is my opinion that trauma occurs in an environment where your feelings and emotional experience are not valued, heard and understood. The specific event is not the cause of traumatic experience. This lack of a “relational home” for feelings is the true cause of traumatic experience. Finding support is key. So dramatic – poor little rich and famous self involved twat… Remember this was posted to a Charity that in 2012 took in 2.6 million – but paid out only $5000 because she’s a fucking scammer…a lie…a rip off…a hack…manipulative – especially to fat and ugly people who think she’s one of them…and now she’s delving into mental health.. Here are some pics of her ass – the most famous ass – I’ve grabbed The post Lady Gaga’s Post Traumatic Stress Disorder of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepfather .
David Oyelowo Strives To Keep His Kids Humble A lot of parents work hard to make sure their kids can have all the things they never had, but as a movie star David Oyelowo is working hard to keep his kids humble… “I stay far away from the Hollywood lifestyle. It is one of the ways that I keep my kids humble. Hollywood can be filled with opulence, but that is one of the great things about making films based on places and people that are born at a disadvantage. It reminds you of what is really important in life.” He further told Page Six , “I have four kids and two dogs, so picking up turds and changing diapers keeps you very humble.” Nothing like poop to keep you humble right? David’s got a beautiful family and it sounds like he’s focused on making them good people. WENN
Black Women Who Dominated TV TV in 2016 has been all about black excellence. This was the year that black people really broke through the glass ceiling to prominence.

Kim Kardashian Reportedly NOT Considering Divorce From Kanye West Despite reports from Kardashian “insiders” claiming that Kimmy is fed up with Kanye’s outbursts and antics and has her finger on the button for a divorce lawyer…KimYe is still going strong. Another set of sources close to the couple tells TMZ , the story that circulating about Kim reconsidering her union to ‘Ye in the midst of his mental crisis are totally bogus. In fact, the couples’ trials have had the exact opposite effect…bringing them closer together as a couple and a family. Friends say that between Kim’s own trauma from the Paris robbery and Kanye’s breakdown, the two rely on each other more than ever for support. They say Kanye’s been kicking it with the Kimmy and the kiddies non-stop since he’s been back home, and finally getting the much-needed rest and relaxation that he deprived himself of on the tour. He’s been cleared to get back to work, but he’s not taking on any major projects right now and just focusing on his health and his family. Well, that’s good to hear. It’s pretty easy to believe that Kimmy’s looking to bail — especially given her marriage history and the quickness with which she replaced boyfriends back in her single days…but hopefully Kimmy and Kanye can really stick it out for each other and their babies…
