Angelina Jolie Gets Temporary Custody Of 6 Kids Angelina has won big time in the custody case of their 6 kids according to TMZ reports. The Brangelina divorce has turned up a few more notches as Brad voluntarily submitted to a drug test to dispel rumors that marijuana and alcohol have impaired his judgement as a parent. Sources sources close to the couple say DCFS has made its suggestions and Brad and Angelina had 2 options. Either take the deal or fight it out in court… — Angelina gets temporary physical custody of the 6 kids until Oct 20th. — Brad gets visitation, with strings attached. The initial visit is with a therapist present and the therapist then has the power to either allow Brad subsequent unmonitored visits or insist on being present whenever he’s around the kids. — Brad is subject to random drug/alcohol testing. As we reported, Angelina believes Brad has issues with alcohol and weed. Our law enforcement sources say Brad’s first test was negative for drugs and alcohol. — Brad and Angelina will each submit to individual counseling. In addition, Brad, Angelina and the kids will undergo family counseling together. Brad’s drug results have yet to come in but we hope the Hollywood couple can put aside their petty beef for the sake of their young children. WENN
Nene Leakes’ Son Robbed By Fan NeNe Leakes’ 17-year-old son , Brentt, got jacked for his wallet and laptop while trying to help his mother out on her nationwide comedy tour. Apparently, Brentt was working the merch table on Wednesday night at NeNe’s “So Nasty, So Rude” comedy tour stop in Chicago. According to TMZ , a customer became upset with something regarding their purchase and demanded a refund.

Cops have surveillance footage of the robbery, but no arrests have been made yet. Thankfully Brentt wasn’t harmed. Damn, how lowdown and hard up for cash do you have to be to rob a teenager because you’re a little pissed off with your purchase. Bravo
Tim Burton Explains Why His Movies Are Predominantly White Have you ever noticed Tim Burton ‘s movies lack a little melanin ? The director of such childhood classics as Beetlejuice and The Nightmare Before Christmas is under attack for admitting his disdain for diversity. Tim recently sat down with Bustle to discuss his latest flick Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children , and says there’s a reason why his movies are predominately white . “Nowadays, people are talking about it more,” he says regarding film diversity. But “things either call for things, or they don’t. I remember back when I was a child watching The Brady Bunch and they started to get all politically correct. Like, OK, let’s have an Asian child and a black. I used to get more offended by that than just… I grew up watching blaxploitation movies, right? And I said, that’s great. I didn’t go like, OK, there should be more white people in these movies.” In Burton’s latest flick, Samuel L. Jackson stands out as the only Black actor to be included in the cast. Jackson recently added his own two cents about the mostly white stars cast in the film… “I had to go back in my head and go, how many black characters have been in Tim Burton movies?” Jackson says. “And I may have been the first, I don’t know, or the most prominent in that particular way, but it happens the way it happens. I don’t think it’s any fault of his or his method of storytelling, it’s just how it’s played out. Tim’s a really great guy.” We’re sure Tim Burton is a “great guy” but he can also be labeled a bigot as well. Do you think directors should make more of an effort to add some diversity in their movies or is Burton right about casting minorities? WENN
Hi hater! Amber Rose Accuses Julianne Hough Of Body Shaming During a recent episode of “Dancing With The Stars” Amber Rose apparently took offense to a comment made by judge Julianne Hough. According to E! News Amb revealed on her podcast that she was upset when Hough said she felt “uncomfortable” while watching Amb dance with her partner Maks Chmerkovskiy. Why? Because she felt Hough was turned off by her curvaceous figure. Amber’s fellow host Chris Donaghue mentioned that he felt Julianne’s criticisms of Amber’s dance were unfair, to which she replied, “Last night was like, they did the commentary, and I, it was a point in the dance where I had to lift my leg up and Maks [Chmerkovskiy] dipped me & [Julianne] said, ‘Oh, I’m uncomfortable,’ and instantly I felt, I did feel body shamed.” Amber added, “You know, all the beautiful professional dancers that are on Dancing With the Stars, I mean they dress very sexy and they do the splits and they grind up on these guys and they look absolutely stunning and get a standing ovation. And me, and my body, my hips, my a**, my breasts made her uncomfortable.” Hough has since reached out to E! News and says that the clip of her “uncomfortable” comment was edited. “Any kind of body shaming goes against everything I believe in,” said Hough. Meanwhile, Julianne tells E! News exclusively, “To be clear, that was a produced package, not live coverage and they can put those sound bites anywhere. My ‘uncomfortable’ comment was about the fact that I felt like I wanted more out of the performance – when someone is doing a hot, sexy dance like that without the right amount of energy that is required, it can be uncomfortable to watch. ” She continued, “Trust me I’m ALL for a sexy booty dance!! We all know that!! And any kind of body shaming goes against everything I believe in.” Do YOU think Hough was hating on Amb’s copious curves??? She definitely does NOT make us uncomfortable…
