Abby Lee Miller: Dance Moms is OFFICIALLY Back for Season 8!

Back in November, we saw  Abby Lee Miller back in the  Dance Moms  studio  despite her battle with cancer. It was immediately clear to fans that she was signaling her return to the series. Now, she confirms that she’s back with  Dance Moms  — and reveals when they begin filming Season 8. Abby Lee Miller shared this photo, displaying her excitement, alongside a caption filled with good news. “OMG!” she exclaims. “Can you believe I’m going to film Season 8 of Dance Moms!” We can believe it, and we’ve known for a while now. But it is very nice to have confirmation. “Yes, it’s official!” Abby confirms. She then shares a detail: “We begin the end of Jan!” It’s been a good long while since viewers saw Miller on Dance Moms. A huge part of that has been Miller’s very real-life drama. In the summer of 2017, she reported to prison for bankruptcy fraud. She was out of prison and staying in a halfway home when she underwent emergency surgery for sudden paralysis. That was when she was diagnosed with Burkitt lymphoma, a form of cancer that is rare in adults. She has been undergoing treatment for months, and has had an additional emergency surgery. That was not the only reason that some expected that Miller would never return to the show, however. Just months before her incarceration, Miller posted a furious rant to Instagram, detailing her grievances with Lifetime. “The majority of children that follow me may be fast asleep, however now is the critical time to make the following statement,” Miller began. “I WILL NO LONGER TAKE PART IN DANCE MOMS,” she declared in March of 2017. “FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS/ SEVEN SEASONS I HAVE ASKED, BEGGED, AND EVEN DEMANDED CREATIVE CREDIT,” she wrote. She wanted credit “FOR ALL THE IDEAS, AWARD WINNING ROUTINES, THEMES, AND COSTUMING – TO NO AVAIL!” “I don’t have a problem working with any kid,” Miller emphasized.  “I love children,” she claimed. “And have dedicated my life to making other people’s children successful!” “I JUST HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BEING MANIPULATED, DISRESPECTED, AND USED – DAY IN AND DAY OUT,” she declared. She said that this was perpetrated “BY MEN WHO NEVER TOOK A DANCE LESSON IN THEIR LIVES AND TREAT WOMEN LIKE DIRT!” Clearly, she and Lifetime have patched things up to some degree. She’s back in the studio and, soon, will be back on camera. Abby Lee Miller has been controversial for many years, largely over her treatment of the children on her show. Many fans of Dance Moms hope that her experiences have softened her approach to how to speak to and instruct children. Regardless of her reputation, we of course wish her a full recovery from her cancer. Miller is currently dealing with a degree of paralysis that, as fans have seen on social media, has her making use of a wheelchair. We hope that viewers will be sensitive to her situation when the new season finally airs. In the mean time, it’s encouraging to hear that it’s officially filming.

Demi Lovato Vows to "Never Take Another Day for Granted"

Demi Lovato is reaydy to move on from the most challenging year of her life. This may be saying a lot for someone who battled substance abuse and an eating disorder for most of her time as a teenager… … but the singer  nearly died of an overdose  in July 2018. So, really, we don’t feel like it’s that bold of a claim overall. Just a few hours before the clock struck midnight and the calendar flipped to 2019, Lovato shared a heartfelt message on social media. It didn’t message the aforementioned overdose specifically, but it was clear what was on Demi’s mind when she wrote the following words: So grateful for the lessons I’ve learned this year. I will never take another day in life for granted, even the bad ones. Thankful for my fans, friends, family and everyone who supported me throughout this year. God bless. Lovato admitted to fans via a verse in a new song this past March that she had fallen off the wagon. She asked for their forgiveness and she seemed legitimately torn up by what had transpired. But just a few months later, what many followers and loved ones had feared for awhile finally came to tragic fruition: The artist was found unconscious by an employee in her bed. This employee called 911 and paramedics had to administer a special dose of medication to Lovato in order to revive her. She was minutes away from dying. Whiile reports have not been finalized or confirmed, it is strongly believed at this point that Lovato had completed a night out with friends and returned to her Hollywood Hills home very early in the morning. She then called her drug dealer. He arrived at her residence and provided her with OxyContin, allegedly laced with fentanyl, which the superstar reportedly free-based.  She may have been unaware at the time that the dose was tainted. Still, the result is all that matters, as Lovato was rushed to the hospital and eventually enrolled in a new rehab program after several weeks under doctors’ supervision. The singer has been free from this facility for a couple months now and recently took to Twitter in order to shoot down reports of a relapse . “I love my fans and hate tabloids,” she wrote last week, emphasizing this message to those who care about her: “Don’t believe what you read. People will literally make up stuff to sell a story. Sickening.” Concluded Lovato: “If I feel like the world needs to know something, I will tell them MYSELF.” Very well said, Demi. We continue to send you our best wishes for a terrific 2019 and beyond. Hang in there.

90 Day Fiance Finale Recap: Zero Days Without Cheating

90 Day Fiance aired its season finale and viewers are already hyped for the Tell-All Special. But the finale itself had so much, including Jay Smith’s cheating scandal and a lot of family drama. Who actually made it to the altar? Take a look: Let’s start with Kalani and Asuelu, who are likeable enough even though they really should not have gotten married. These two had a lot of problems from the beginning. Their fling would never have become more than that if she hadn’t become pregnant. Kalani had baby Oliver and she and Asuelu resolved to marry … and now Kalani is pregnant again. So she spends a lot of her wedding day episode narrative hoping that her father won’t find out that she’s expecting her second child. (As you may recall, Asuelu refuses to wear condoms and says that they are for “slut people,” which is … really stupid) He doesn’t find out on screen, though he obviously knows about it now. Should these two have gotten married? No. Did they? Yes. Their wedding was as beautiful as the memes spawned from Asuelu’s crying. Next up, we have to talk about this season’s worst couple: Colt and Larissa. While most of the drama with Coltee and Larissa happened off-screen, plenty of their nonsense was caught on camera. These two did get married, despite Larissa’s (first) domestic battery arrest. Larissa got married in a wedding dress from Goodwill. There were more people from TLC, filming and producing the wedding, than there were actual guests. Considering the bride and groom themselves … that’s not really a huge surprise. Speaking of toxic relationships, let’s look at Eric and Leida. Admittedly, most of their drama was with Eric’s family, whom Leida seems to think he should foreswear. Leida’s dismissive attitude towards Eric’s children has earned her a lot of hate (deservedly) and some death threats (not cool). Despite Eric’s lack of financial resources, he and Leida did get married. His older daughters were not interested in watching this go down, but his youngest was there. For a comical twist, Eric forgot his pants just 35 minutes before the wedding. For possibly the first time, I sympathize with the guy — pants are nothing but leg-prisons. Eric immediately dashes any connection wtih viewers by toasting “everyone that showed up” to his wedding. Steven and Olga’s story really belonged on 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days . Why? Because Olga gave birth in Russia, and this high-conflict couple spent their time in Russia. Steven’s open resentment of their child, Alex (that’s his name, regardless of what you heard on the show; it’s a long story), was yikes-worthy. So it was nice for viewers to see him leave Russia without Olga and without their baby. He was vowing to work on the K-1 Visa paperwork (it costs money, folks). Fans really, really hope that he gave himself a major attitude adjustment, too. Because, in real life, these two are still together. We will say that their social media posts seem extremely endearing. The secret is for Steven to not be talking while the camera is on. Jonathan and Fernanda’s wedding was almost as beautiful as the couple themselves. The one downside to their happy day was that Jonathan’s mother couldn’t attend, at the last minute. This wasn’t an issue with Fernanda or her youth. Jonathan’s grandfather was sick. Real life doesn’t pause for weddings, and Fernanda understood that. Fernanda also wished that her own mother could be in attendance. Also, Fernanda let it slip that she’s planning to have yet another wedding in Mexico, so it’s all good. Then there’s Jay and Ashley. Ashley caught Jay cheating on her, though he objects to that definition of “cheating.” The dude downloaded Tinder the instant that they got married. She caught him video chatting another girl the day ater their wedding. Ashley was understandably furious, which is probably why Jay is currently asking fans for cash . Jay is 20 and seems to have almost no impulse control. From day one, Ashley’s friends had warned her that he was going to cheat on her. We had all hoped that they were wrong. Who else is absolutely, unapologetically hyped for the Tell-All Special ? They’ll get into relationship issues, from Jay’s cheating to Steven’s absolutely repulsive attitude and the way that he speaks to Olga. But most of all, fans are looking forward to seeing how Larissa interacts with her castmates. Coltee may be good at putting on his condescending “nice voice” and at least pretending to be reasonable. Larissa has not pretended to be reasonable a day in her life, and cameras are not going to stop her. Get excited, folks. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Stars: How Much Are They Paid?

Kanye West to Twitter: Stop Following My Wife on Instagram!

We probably don’t need to tell that Kanye West has had quite a year. And to be clear, we don’t mean that in a good way. At all. Whether he was describing slavery as a choice or fantasizing about playing catch with Donald Trump, Yeezy found new and interesting ways to baffle and infuriate the masses in 2018. West swore off politics back in October, but that doesn’t mean he’s done being bonkers on social media. No, these past few weeks, Kanye has been devoting his attention to a bizarre feud with Drake . Although we’re not sure if “feud” is the right word, as it seems to be a pretty one-sided fixation on Kanye’s part. Anyway, it’s always a dangerous game guessing what’s going on in Kanye’s head, but as far as we can tell, the rapper’s final (?) tirade of 2018 is a result of his ongoing anger toward Drizzy. It all started with this all-time bonkers tweet. Either that’s a reference to the rumors that Drake had sex with Kim Kardashian , or Kanye really doesn’t understand his wife’s career, and that comment is directed at all of Twitter. Either way, with that, he was off. Kanye’s tweets ranged from the vaguely threatening (“See when you care about your family you don’t let no man push you to do nothing that could risk your freedom”) to the amusingly asinine (“Tweeting is legal and also therapeutic”). As far as we can tell, dude remains deeply pissed at Drake, but there was also a healthy dose of his usual pseudo-spiritual mumbo-jumbo in there as well. What does it all mean? Well, we doubt even Kanye himself could tell you. Whatever the case, it’s a reminder that you can safely anticipate even more insanity from hip-hop’s most unstable artist in 2019. As a send-off for his most memorable year yet, Kanye concluded today’s rant with this nugget of wisdom: “If I got any cooler I would freeze to death.” Carry that energy into the new year, folks.

Cheyenne Floyd: Yes, I Want More Kids… with Cory!

Let's face it: Cheyenne Floyd has been the most boring Teen Mom of all the Teen Mom OGs this season. That's not an insult. Heck, it's nearly a compliment because it means her life has been relatively stable — which doesn't exactly lead to significant storylines on a show such as this. Most of Floyd's initial run on the program has centered on her relationship with Cory Wharton and whether the two will get back together. On stage at part two of the reunion special, Floyd doesn't exactly answer this question. But she sort of does. See what we mea below… 1. Together Again On stage, at least, as Cory and Cheyenne taped their segment of a reunion special that will air on 12/31/18 many weeks ago. 2. Wait, Is That Cory Crying? Yup. It sure is. He actually dissolves in tears early on while talking to Dr. Drew. 3. What Prompts the Waterworks? Talk of his daughter with Cheyenne, a toddler named Ryder. Wharton opens up like never before on this episode. 4. What Do You Mean? What Does He Say? “I mean, just from the time of meeting Ryder from day one, I have changed as a person,” Cory admits, as the tears flow and Floyd comforts her ex-lover. 5. It’s a Blessing, It Really Is. It’s a Blessing. Cory said this to a strong reaction from both those in attendance and from Cheyenne as well. 6. Cheyenne Floyd and Child Cheyenne Floyd had her first child at 24. Though she was never a Teen Mom, she’ll soon join the cast of Teen Mom OG. View Slideshow

Kanye West Reignites Feud with Drake for Dumbest Reason Ever

It may be a tad bit premature, but it’s safe to say the following: Kanye West’s New Year’s resolution will not be to forgive and/or forget. Quite the opposite, in fact, when it comes to Drake. About two weeks after Kanye reignited his feud with Drake , because the latter dared to ask for clearance of a track from the former, Kanye has gone out and once again… … reignited his feud with Drake. In this case, the 41-year-old rapper shared a screen capture of an article that claimed that Drake, used to follow Kim Kardashian on Instagram and… … wait, there is no and . That’s it. That was enough to get Kanye off. “I never knew till this morning that Drake followed my wife on Instagram back in September,” West wrote on Twitter early Saturday, adding in consternation: “I had to bring this up because it’s the most f-cked up thing of all and I just saw it this morning. “Imagine having a problem with somebody and they follow your wife on Instagram.” A few points to make here: 1. Kanye has since deleted these Tweets. 2. Drake no longer follows Kardashian. 3. Perhaps he formerly did so because Kim so often poses naked on that social media platform. The Yeezy later designer claimed he has no ill will toward Drake, however. “We truly wish this man the best and pray that he will find the same happiness that we have,” he tweeted. “Love everyone.” Back on December 13, West went after Drake when he accused the three-time Grammy winner of attempting to contact the Kardashian-Jenner family. “Still need that apology for mentioning the 350s and trying to take food out your idols kids mouths. Been trying to meet with you for 6 months bro,” West wrote, attacking Drake as follows: “You sneak dissing on [Travis Scott] records and texting Kris [Jenner] talking about how’s the family.” Kanye even went on to allege that Drake had threatened members of his family. There was just a lot to digest here, as is so often the case with Kanye West… Eventually, Kardashian told Drake to leave her loved ones alone . And then Drake’s baby mama got herself involved . Fun times all around! For celebrity gossip outlets such as this one, at least. “@Drake never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake,” Kim wrote in defense of West at the time, adding: “My husband is the most brilliant person, the most genius person that I know. “He has broken so many boundaries, everything from music, stage design, fashion and culture and will continue to change the world.” Drake has not yet responded to Kanye’s latest rant against him. But Kardashian hasn’t really gotten any more clothed on Instagram. So Drake may soon follow her again, like most warm-blooded males, and we’ll do this whole dance all over again. This whole rivalry started after Drake seemed to name check Kardashian in the song “In My Feelings.” West then said in an Instagram video: “What I’m looking for, for my spirit to take accountability is, the fact that there’s people making rumors or thinking that you f-cked my wife, and you not saying nothing and you carrying it like that, that don’t sit well with my spirit… “You know, if I had a girlfriend from Chicago, her name was Renita and then you was married to Rihanna, I wouldn’t make no song called ‘Riri.’ So when you’re like, ‘Ah I don’t know where it comes from!’ You’re too smart for that, bro. You know where that comes from. “Don’t make no record with nothing that could be confused.”

David Eason Issues Threats, Features More Dead Animals in Unsettling New Video

David Eason is … well, he seems to be in sort of a weird place right now. And by “weird,” we mean “very, very bad.” He's being investigated by the Secret Service, he's facing criminal charges for towing a handicapped man's truck. It's all just bad. In the midst of all that, he's been sharing some pretty bizarre videos that are really making people concerned for his mental state. Today, we're going to look at the latest one … but be warned, it's super graphic and disturbing. 1. Yikes David is really just falling apart these days. 2. Well … And we know, we know, by saying that we’re saying that he used to have himself together at some point in time, but it’s true — you know he was at least a little better than this in the past. 3. How Things Change Remember when Jenelle first started dating him? He had a job as a welder, he wasn’t as immediately aggressive as Nathan Griffith was … lots of people thought she was finally getting with a decent guy. 4. Nope Oh, how wrong we were … 5. SUCH a Transformation Soon after he began appearing on Teen Mom 2, he started showing his true colors. He was controlling, mean to her sons, and mean to her mother. 6. Getting Worse He’s had a pretty steady downfall since then: he and Jenelle got into more and more fights on the show, he was fired from the show for that awful homophobic Twitter rant.

Kathryn Dennis Celebrates Christmas Morning Alone With Kids

Disgraced former Southern Charm star Thomas Ravenel will stand trial for sexual assault , and he is also being sued for the same incident. His baby mama and ex, Kathryn Dennis, is making the best of Christmas for their two very young children. She even shared a series of sweet Christmas photos. See them for yourself: “Real life,” Kathryn Dennis captioned this short series of pictures. In the pictures, she poses alongside her very young children. Her daughter, Kensington Calhoun Ravenel, is four years old. Her son, Saint Julien Rembert Ravenel, is is only two. As you can see, both are decked out in festive attire for the occassion. Kathryn also put the photos into context and sent a message with her tags. “#Christmasfamilyphoto,” Kathryn writes. “#reality.” She is a star of reality television, but Kathryn places herself among a growing number of reality stars who use social media to share this message: Reality television is not real life. Not for the first time, Kathryn is reminding her fans and followers that what they see on camera is just that. It’s entertainment. Her real life — her reality — revolves around her two precious children. Of course, there are other, less pleasant parts of Kathryn’s life these days. She is engaged in a court battle for primary custody of Kensie and Saint. According to Kathryn’s court filings, Thomas goes through “periods of impulsive and uncontrollable bouts of anger.” That is something that matches up with what multiple people, including his own friends and former castmates, have said. Kathryn’s court documents say that Thomas struggles with “extreme narcissism and anger management problems.” Per the court accusation, she also accuses him of relying “upon the use of full-time nannies.” And that is not the end of it. Court documents allege that Thomas “has drunk alcohol to excess, mixed with prescription drugs, that has caused him to be impaired.” Partying on your own time is fine, but she says that Thomas has done this “during periods of time in which he had custody of the children.” That might be mitigated if he is relying upon full-time nannies, but ti’s not exactly encouraging. Combined with everything else, including the two accusations of sexual assault, and it doesn’t paint a pretty picture of Thomas as a man or as a father. Thomas, however, hit back. Thomas argued that Kathryn made these court arguments “in bad faith.” He went on to argue that Kathryn did so “for the purpose of garnering media attention.” Thomas even alleged that Kathryn was bent toward “creating material for her storyline on  Southern Charm  and ensuring her marketability as a ‘reality TV star.'” Kathryn’s priority is her children. Everything else is secondary. Because celebrity court battles are so very public, it is not uncommon for one party to argue that the other is just trying to feed a media frenzy. Sometimes, the men who make these arguments are just bad dudes. One thing that we should point out about these Christmas photos is that we don’t know who took them. It could be anyone — hired help, a friend, or any family member. It could also be Thomas Ravenel himself. Sometimes, parents set aside their differences on holidays, especially when young children are involved. That said, it appears that Thomas and Kathryn held separate Christmases for their children at separate homes. A wise decision.

Jenelle Evans Gives Son a Gun for Christmas. Seriously.

Jenelle Evans will never, ever learn. “What won’t she learn?” you may be wondering to yourself, if you’re not overly familiar with Jenelle Evans. The answer, dear friends, is “literally anything.” Jenelle has been acting a fool on television for years and years at this point, and while she does change from time to time, she never gets better. Back in the day, she smoked too much weed and ditched her son, Jace, with her mother, who she treated like garbage. After that, she got into several abusive relationships and developed an addiction to heroin. She had another kid, Kaiser, with another jackass, even though she still hadn’t gotten back custody of Jace. And when that relationship went south, as they always do, she hooked up with David Eason shortly after, and now here we are. In the darkest of times. Since she’s been with David, she’s slowly turned into a gun-loving Trump supporter with aggression problems and a knack for picking fights at any given opportunity . So basically, she’s turned into David. The problem is that David himself has been getting worse and worse as time goes on. When he and Jenelle started dating, he was a lot like her previous guys — he had a couple of restraining orders against him, and he’d spent some time in the local jail. But now he’s he’s being investigated by the Secret Service for seemingly threatening the president’s life, so … There was a bit of a jump there, yeah. See, so much of David and Jenelle’s descent into madness has had to do with guns. The Secret Service mess, that time she nearly got herself killed by following a stranger home and pulling a gun on him because of road rage … The list goes on, but boy, do these people not know how to be responsible gun owners. And that’s why a lot of people don’t really love the fact that they gave Jace a gun for Christmas. Yeah, it’s a toy gun, and that’s a lot better than getting him an assault rifle just like his stepdaddy’s . Lots of kids have toy guns, but lots of kids don’t have David Eason as a parental figure, you know? But in addition to gifting the toy gun, David also shared a video of Jace shooting a real gun on Snapchat yesterday. For Teen Mom fans, none of these things are good ideas. Over on Twitter, one person wrote that she was “concerned” that everything that’s been going on “is going to give Jace ideas on how they might become proud of him if he does something with these guns.” “Don’t get me wrong, I’m pro gun, but under the right circumstances,” another person said. “These are NOT the right circumstances.” “I could see when J & D get in a huge fight, Jace going to get one of David’s guns, loading it and shooting David to protect Jenelle.” Someone else tweeted “If I was Barb I would not let Jace go over and I’d take it to court, she has primary custody & gets to make the decision if he can handle a gun or not.” “David is not stable and I’m sorry but Jace has to have psychological issues going on with all this sh-t in his life.” There are tons and tons of concerns with pretty much everything going on in Jenelle’s home, but this really is a huge one. Even if Barbara, who does have full custody of Jace , is fine with him shooting guns and playing with toy guns, it’s sort of surprising she’s not taking action after the whole Secret Service mess.
