There has been no shortage of shockers on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Wa y . The show really brings the drama. Now, the Tell All special has been filmed, and spoilers are leaking from behind the scenes. There’s some inappropriate flirting and a brawl breaks out — and both incidents involve the same person. “Angela bullies Avery, calls Avery a bad Muslim, among other things,” a fan page called Frauded By TLC reports. Apparently, things escalated from there. “Angela attacks avery,” the report continues. That is scary. You know that Angela could be a real bruiser in a fight. And she’s not nearly as old as she looks. Fortunately, the report says that “Rebecca steps in to break it up.” “It becomes a huge brawl on stage,” the report concludes. We should keep in mind that Angela is no stranger to being on television. Not only is this not her first stint on 90 Day Fiance , but she appeared multiple tims on Maury alongside her daughter, Scottie. (Yes, the infamously awful daughter, convicted child-molester Scottie Deem ) So it may be that she’s brawling for the sake of the cameras, to keep herself interesting. After all, Pedro brawled with Chantel’s family, and now they’re all on their very own spinoff show. But she didn’t have to involve this much younger woman. There is another bit of drama related to Avery Mills. Once again, it is not her fault. According to multiple different reports, including Frauded By TLC, Avery received some unwanted attention from Aladin. That’s right — Laura’s Aladin. “During the weekend of taping the Tell All … Aladin was messaging Avery telling her she looked beautiful in her jihab,” the report reads. While it’s true, it’s not something that Aladin should have been saying, especially in a text. Wisely, she blocked the hunky castmate. Reports can claim anything because sources can claim anything — but we’re inclined to believe all of this. Part of that is because super-reliable 90 Day Fiance blogger John Yates reported the same thing. “I heard from a source and can confirm that Aladin was trying to get some jiggy jiggy,” Yates reported on Instagram. He clarified that it was “not from Laura, but from Avery during the weekend of The Other Way tell-all taping.” Aladin should probably stick to looking hot and not hit on his castmates, right? Speaking of castmates, there was only one non-American present for the Tell All taping. Darcey Silva’s new man, Tom Brooks, appeared on camera. Maybe he just had an easier time getting a visa. (Because, well, he’s white and has a white-sounding name and that is everything in our current political nightmare) But several fans have joked that it’s no surprise that Darcey’s new man is as much of a glutton for fame as she is. Our biggest hope for the Tell All is that, seeing Corey and Evelin happily together, some haters can get a grip and accept them as a couple. Between editing and racism, Evelin has entered the ranks of the most hated 90 Day Fiance stars of all time … without earning that title. People need to get a grip. Of course, the Tell All won’t air for some time, so maybe people’s attitudes will improve on their own before then.

Back in July, Amber Portwood was arrested on domestic violence charges . The Teen Mom OG star allegedly brandished a machete and attacked her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon, while he was holding the couple's 1-year-old son. Despite Amber's long history of violent behavior, she was defended by numerous supporters, including her co-stars, who repeatedly stated that they did not believe the allegations. Now, however, an audio recording obtained by the YouTube vlog Without a Crystal Ball proves definitively that Amber was in the habit of physically threatening Andrew and engaging in all manner of verbal abuse. We wonder what her castmates will have to say now … Take a look: 1. House of Horrors There was a time when Amber and Andrew seemed to enjoy a decently happy relationship. But after their July 4 blowout, Andrew revealed that he lived in fear of her from the start. 2. Now We Know Why Amber is still awaiting trial after being arrested for attacking Andrew with a machete on Independence Day. 3. A Short Leash Though she was quickly released on bond, Portwood has been barred from contacting Glennon, and she’s only permitted to see her son, James, during brief, court-supervised visits. 4. The Real Fireworks According to Andrew, Amber became upset and started an argument due to the fact that the family was running late for a local fireworks display. 5. Angry Amber Glennon says she soon became physically aggressive and attacked him while he was holding baby James. 6. Unconscionable She later brandished a machete, and when Andrew locked himself inside a bedroom with James, Amber attempted to break down the door. View Slideshow
Some TV characters are beloved by fans. Others, not so much. These 13 TV characters had the potential to be good, but they squandered the potential at every turn. Yes, really. Who made the list? Find out below. 1. Archie – Riverdale As the lead character on Riverdale, you would expect him to be likable. Instead, he doesn’t follow rules, complains when other people don’t follow rules, and walks about with half-naked at the best of times. 2. Morgan – The Walking Dead and Fear The Walking Dead Morgan served little purpose to the narrative on The Walking Dead, so the decision to send him to the spinoff was silly. Morgan loves to give monologues that make very little sense. He’s the worst. 3. Jo – Grey’s Anatomy In the most recent season, the character of Jo was fleshed out. But for the seasons she was part of the show before that, there was a grand total of zero character development. It’s too late in the game for us to care about her. 4. Paige – Pretty Little Liars Paige was in a relationship with Emily at one point. Before that? She pushed Emily’s head underwater when her obsession with being the better swimmer took over. Yikes. It makes sense then that fans hated the character. 5. Noah – The Affair He has a superiority complex that makes him think that cheating on his wife was acceptable. He complains about his ex-wife when she ignores his calls. He’s quite simply a horrid human being. 6. Matt – The Vampire Diaries Matt was too bland to care about. On a show that was about supernatural beings, he lingered behind the scenes like an extra. He only piped up whenever anyone said anything about Elena. View Slideshow
It's probably true that Kelly Dodd has never even had a threesome , but that doesn't mean that she doesn't chase down romance. She has been dating Rick Leventhal for a couple of months, and has now revealed that she's engaged . Some fans think that she's joking. Castmates Vicki and Tamra think that she's lying, drunk, or both. Kelly Dodd was giving boyfriend Rick Leventhal a rave review on Instagram when one of her followers chimed in. The fan appreciated how Rick is “normal and works for Fox,’ which the fan expressed meant that he earned a “10/10 perfect score.” While not everyone would consider a Fox News correspondent to have a normal or even acceptable job, Kelly's reply was a massive shocker. Kelly wrote: “that’s weird because we are getting married 10/10/2020.” Announcing an engagement was surprising enough. Announcing the wedding date was absolutely mind-boggling. Kelly's rivals from The Real Housewives of Orange County aren't buying Kelly's announcement for a second. On Watch What Happens Live , Andy Cohen (who's still trying to make that beard happen) asks what the ladies think of Kelly's post. “They just met!” Tamra Judge screeches from the audience, where she is wearing a mic. “They just met!” “I'm literally in shock,” Vicki — who looks great, by the way — admits to Andy. “Like, it is ridiculous,” the OG in the OC points out. “I don't even think it's been two months.” When Andy asks Vicki and Tamra whether they think that Kelly's announcement was real, they give similar answers. “I think Kelly wants to be married,” Vicki expresses. “No,” Tamra says immediately. “She was probably drunk.” “You saw her this season asking, um, Doctor Brian about rings,” Vicki points out. Tamra cracks: “She's been reading Brandi [Glanville]'s book: Tweeting, Drinking, and Tweeting ,” Tamra suggests. “Oh my god,” Andy marvels. “You're in a Twitter war with Brandi but you're also plugging her book. I like it!” Yes, Tamra and Brandi's Twitter feud has been vicious on both sides. Vicki then gets into a bit of flirtation with Andy's other guest, but we're reasonably confident that it's going nowhere — for a lot of reasons. Still, Vicki never gave a solid “yes” or “no” as to what she believes that Kelly really meant by her comment. Is she just desperate enough to be married that she'd make up a wedding date as a joke? Or … is she desperate enough to be married that she's already engaged to a man she's known for only a couple of months? In case you hadn't noticed, Kelly has very much broken things off with Doctor Brian. (A shocking number of people who follow Kelly on Instagram apparently can't be bothered to keep up with her life; Instagram is where she announced the split) In a vague video that appeared to be filled with alcohol, she announced her breakup to her fans and followers. While it's true that she was strongly fishing for an engagement a few months ago, clearly something had changed. Kelly intimated that Doctor Brian knew exactly why she was ditching him. She did not opt to explain to her fans, however. Our guess? Kelly isn't engaged just yet, but decided to “joke” about how much she'd like to marry Rick. You know, like when two friends “joke” about wanting to bone the other and it's all fun and games until the other suggests that they're down for it? Well, that may be Kelly's situation. That wedding date will remain a “joke” right up until Rick goes “actually, want to really do it?”
In a word? KABOOM ! In a whole bunch of words? Holy shocker, reality TV fans, can you believe the bombshell that exploded all over last night’s Married at First Sight finale?!? We’re still reeling from what we just witnessed and, as you can tell by the looks on the coaches’ faces below, we aren’t alone… We won’t delay the suspense any longer. We’ll just hope all readers are sitting down when they read the following: Keith Manley said he wanted to separate from Iris Caldwell on Wednesday night’s episode. “You’ve been nothing but supportive. Whether it’s coming to my grandmother’s funeral or you coming to meet my family and spending time with my family,” he told her on air, adding in more painful detail: “I do want you to know how grateful I am to have met someone who has pushed me in so many different ways that I just had no idea I needed to be pushed in. “Right now, I do think that we are in different places individually and for that reason I would like to get a divorce.” Dr. Pepper Schwartz was left “stunned” by this decision, while Dr. Viviana Coles said her heart was “broken for Iris.” As for the bride? She handled the news better than expected. “I think you’re an amazing person,” Keith added. “I think you’re an amazing woman but I’m just not sure you’re the right one for me.” “I guess I’m at peace with it because it’s something I can’t change,” Iris replied simply. Take as long as you need to process this development and then scroll down to learn the fate of Gregory Okotie and Deonna McNeill … Deonna said she was “growing in love” with her husband during their sit-down, helping us believe in this emotion once again. “This kind of feels like a fairy-tale,” she continued. “I got married at first sight to find my forever relationship, to find my complementing partner, go on adventures, go grocery shopping, go home and have someone to talk too. With Greg, I have all of that.” Hooray! Can Matthew Gwynne and Amber Bowles keep this positive reaction flowing? After Gwynne was confronted with allegations of flirting with other women while married, the athlete apologized. He sounded sincere, at least to an extent, but it wasn’t enough for Amber … who stood up for herself in a way that left viewers applauding all night long. “I think I deserve to be pursued,” she said, continuing as follows: You said it’s because you didn’t feel a spark or connection but why didn’t you walk away when you didn’t feel the spark or connection? “You could have saved me a whole lot of heartache because I’m hurting now and I’m feeling humiliated and I’m feeling like I’m not enough because of how you acted and the choices you made. “I wish you would have walked away instead of hurting me.” Amen, Amber. As for Elizabeth Bice and Jamie Thompson ? These two, and the way they were presented, left us guessing until the very end. First, Jamie confessed that he doesn’t “love the sexual relationship” he has with Jamie. So the end had to be near for the newlyweds, right? Nope: despite their many ups and downs, the couple was united in their decision to remain married. “I think there is a lot for us to grow together in this world and I think we have a lot of positive things to bring to each other’s lives, but you’ve done some pretty effed up things and you’ve called me some pretty choice words,” Elizabeth said. “I think I’d be really crazy if I didn’t stay with you so I want to stay in this marriage.” Can’t say we saw that coming, but the episode was chock full of surprises. “I just think there’s just too much good, too much positivity, too much to throw away so my answer is yes, I want to stay married,” Jamie concluded.

Last November, we reported that 90 Day Fiance star Ashley Martson had been kidnapped and brutally attacked when she was 19. Now, Ashley is speaking up on Instagram and inviting her fans and followers to hear the grim story of her survival story. This is a huge step for her, and she even released a statement about how she’s no longer afraid to address her trauma. First of all, Ashley explains why she decided to get ahead and leak her story through blogger John Yates late last year. “I wasn’t sure how the other tabloids would portray me,” Ashley explained at the time. She added: “I knew he would post it with the with dignity and respect with the understanding that this is a very sensitive subject.” And, she revealed, she had been warned that an old “friend” already planned to leak the story of the brutal 2005 assault. “People are disgusting,” she correctly observed. “Sending this story to tabloids shows how s–tty people really are.” In 2005, Ashley was near her car outside of work when a man, Sean Patrick Gallagher, attacked her with a box cutter and tied her up. He took her elsewhere in her own car. In a small athletic field, he stopped the car, terrorized her, and sexually assaulted her. He could have — and may have been planning to — end her life. Only 19 at the time, Ashley mustered the incredible courage to fight back against he armed monster. She struck him with a bag and used her own teeth to chew through the zip-ties that had bound her hands so tightly that they were discolored. Ashley made a run for it, on foot, sliding down an embankment and wading across a creek to get away. Gallagher was eventually identified with DNA evidence. He was already in prison at the time. At his trial, Ashley did not hold back when it came to scolding him for fighting the charges, forcing her to relive her horrific trauma. In 2009, after Ashley’s testimony, it took only 90 minutes for the jury to convict. He was found guilty of kidnapping, rape, involuntary intercourse, robbery, and terroristic threats. Last November, it was John Yates who shared the story — at Ashley’s request — to get it out in the open, the right way. Now, Ashley is addressing the topic herself on Instagram. “I was kidnapped and almost killed,” Ashley acknowledges. “But,” she continues. “I’m no longer afraid to speak out.” She then directs people to read about it. There isn’t exactly new information, since it’s been public knowledge, but her statement is brand new. Ashley has known a lot of awful experiences in her life. Kidnapped at 19. And she continues to battle Lupus, a devastating and chronic autoimmune disease that threatens her life. Leaked text messages appear to accuse her ex-husband, Jay Smith, of sexually assaulting her while she was recovering from a medical treatment. There is no limit on the horror that one can experience in a lifetime, but we hope that Ashley never relives any of these nightmares again. Ashley is a profoundly strong woman.

Well folks, we’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is, it looks as though Hayden Panettierre has finally parted ways with her abusive boyfriend, Brian Hickerson . The bad news is, it appears that she’s now dating Brian’s brother, Zach Hickerson. We don’t mean to suggest that Zach is necessarily a bad guy because of his association with Brian. It’s just one of the situations that seems likely to end badly, ya know? News of the romantic shakeup comes to us courtesy of Radar Online. A source tells the site that this is no mere fling, and Hayden and Zach have been in a relationship for several months now. “It’s a very strange set of circumstances,” says the insider. “I don’t know if it’s better than the alternative,” claims the source, identified only as a “concerned friend.” “How strange it may be, the one positive thing about this is Zach is certainly not the violent temper that Brian is.” Obviously, that’s a good thing. But it’s hard not be concerned for Hayden’s safety knowing that she’s still in Hickerson’s social circle following what we assume was a very messy breakup. Hickerson stands accused of assaulting Panettiere several times over the course of a single week earlier this year. To the chagrin of her family and friends, Hayden stayed with Brian despite the allegations. Currently, Hickerson is awaiting trial on domestic violence charges that could land him behind bars form a very long time. Hayden has yet to confirm her new relationship but she was recently spotted on what appeared to be a date with Zach. “They were walking hand-in-hand, talking and laughing together,” says the source. “She was jumping up and down making funny faces, and he was flexing his muscles and laughing. They looked happy together.” The insider adds that Hayden and Zach have “been involved for two months now.” “Those close to Hayden are not going to pretend to understand it or condone it,” but “there’s nothing anyone can do,” claims the informant. “She has been reluctant to talk about it because she knows how people feel — it’s definitely something she would not want to discuss.,” the insider adds. “And she doesn’t want to share too much especially because of what’s going on with Brian and his legal issues.” Brian Hickerson’s jury trial begins in Los Angeles court on September 24. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: 21 Celebrities Accused of Domestic Violence
Cameron Mathison, a television star likely best known for his long-running role on All My Children, has been diagnosed with kidney cancer. The actor 00 who currently hosts the Hallmark Channel morning talk show “Home and Family” — announced the unfortunate news on Instagram Tuesday. Although he explained that phyiscians believe his tumor has been growing for a “minimum 10 years,” he said he’s “optimistic” about his recovery. Alongside a photo of his family, this is how Mathison opened his announcement: “I have a health situation that I want to share with you all. “There are many reasons I love social media, staying connected with you all, sharing fun experiences… well this time I’m asking for your help. “About a month ago, I had an MRI for some gut issues I’ve been having, and during that MRI they found a tumor on my right kidney. “It’s consistent with Renal Cell Carcinoma … or kidney cancer. The good news is that it hasn’t spread to any other organs.” Mathison also is host of Entertainment Tonight and appeared on over 1,000 episodes of All My Children from 1998 through 2011. He once appeared as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars. Added the star in regard to his health and his prognosis: “They say my healthy lifestyle and diet has no doubt helped keep it from growing and spreading to other areas, as doctors think it’s been growing in me for minimum 10 years. “I am extremely lucky that we found it early. “Thank you to my longtime friend and urologist @jon_giddens who has helped me tremendously through this process.” This is the photo Mathison used alongside his revealing caption: Mathison went on to thank his wife, Vanessa, and their two children, Leila, 13, and Lucas, 16. “Vanessa, Lucas and Leila have been absolutely amazing with their love and support,” he wrote. “As have my mom, dad, brother, and everyone at Home and Family, Hallmark, and ET.” Mathison proceeded to ask for support from his followers, as he will be undergoing surgery on Thursday. “My surgery is scheduled on September 12th,” he said. “I was hoping to receive positive thoughts, prayers, or whatever you feel comfortable with, on 9/12 (my surgery is at 1pm PST) I announced this on @homeandfamilytv yesterday, and wanted to make sure I posted about it here as well.” Mathison concluded as follows: “Feeling very grateful and optimistic!! #thankyou yes.” In response to the news, a number of stars with whom Mathison has worked expressed their condolences. Candace Cameron Bure wrote: “Absolutely praying for you Cameron, and over the doctors and nurses during your surgery as well as your family.” Lacey Chabert: “Lifting you up in prayer! All my love to you and your family.” Ali Fedotowsky: “We love you Cameron. And we are all here for you.” We send our very best wishes to Cameron Mathison. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Beat Cancer
Schools and school activities are supposed to reward extraordinary achievement and dedication on the parts of their students. But for one 17-year-old swimmer, she found her accomplishments erased when a referee disqualified her after she won. The reason cited? The bottom of her one-piece swimsuit had bunched up during her swim. The national outcry was swift and immediate. Dimond High School in Anchorage, Alaska boasts one of the fastest swimmers in the country's largest state. Unfortunately for that very talented 17-year-old athlete, she is now at the center of a nationwide controversy. On Friday night, she won a 100m freestyle event against the rival team from Chugiak. Sadly, her victory was short-lived. The referee disqualified her after-the-fact, citing — and we wish that we were kidding — that her swimsuit had a wedgie. Most people would not have paid any attention to a slightly bunched up one-piece, because that can happen to any swimsuit. It is also worth noting, of course, that the one-piece was provided by the school — this wasn't the case of a swimmer going rogue with her uniform. But the referee issued a disqualification based upon the girl's “intergluteal cleft.” Notably, the national rulebook does not say anything of the sort. And while coaches in the district were cautioned against swimmers showing “intergluteal cleft,” the one-piece only did so while bunched up. There have been no shortage of deeply sexist dress codes and ensuing scandals over the years as fewer families are willing to stand for them. But this was clearly a step further, and spawned national outrage practically overnight. There was more than misogyny and inherent unfairness at play behind this unbelievable decision by the referee. Millions of Americans reading about the outrageous disqualification took note of the fact that the girl in question is biracial and somewhat curvy. Bias against curvier women and girls is sadly nothing new, and they are often excessively sexualized despite wearing normal clothing. And we hope that we do not have to explain that racism is alive and well in America to a sickening degree. These factors were pointed out by a coach at a neighboring high school — a rival school, and the last person you'd think would root for an opposing athlete. She wrote about how this girl wore the same uniform as her teammates, none of whom had receives violations. She also recalled incidents of this girl and her sisters being targeted even by parents who felt that the girls' curves made them inherently indecent . (One parent even photographed the girl and distributed pictures, which is mega creepy and got him scolded by the school district) Anchorage School District, taking note of the coach's outrage and of the national outcry, released a statement just days after the disqualifcation. “The disqualification appears to stem from a difference of opinion in the interpretation of the rules governing high school swim uniforms,” it begins. The statement continues: “Immediately after the disqualification, the Dimond HS swim coach filed a protest with the official to contest the decision.” We intend to gather all the facts surrounding the disqualification so we can accurately address the matter with officials,” the district adds. “And, they conclude, they will “take appropriate action to ensure fair, equitable competition and consistent application of the rules for this athlete and her peers.” Well, that internal inquiry by the Anchorage School District concluded that the 17-year-old athlete was unfairly targeted. They sent an appeal to the Alaska School Activities Association, who had to have known that this was coming. It took only one hour for the ASAA to reverse the disqualification. Like in one of the early Harry Potter books where magic sports still mattered, all points were restored to the Dimond team. The ASAA is still mulling over whether to decertify the referee and also whether to suspend the clearly unfair “suit coverage rule.”
