Pap Nation/ PressPhotoBank /SplashNews Khloe Kardashian Fans Want To Know What’s Happened To Her Face Earlier this week Khloe Kardashian set off a few alarms for fans who questioned if she’s been fiddling with her face again. Khloe shared a series of photos of herself sitting on her counter while wearing her Good American line… And the comments in response weren’t all pretty. Life and Style Magazine pointed out some even more HARSH critiques: “OMG WTF did u do to your face? No more fillers!!!” one fan begged. Another compared the Strong Looks Better Naked author to transgender model Amanda Lepore, writing, “Looks like Amanda Lepore has a younger sister!!” The magazine also pointed out how last year during an episode of Kocktails With Khloé, Kardashian swore off injectables claiming they made her face look “so f–ked up.” “[Fillers] did not work for me. I looked crazy, and I still think the effects are in there. I went to have it all dissolved like three times,” Khloé — who used to frequent the office of renowned Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Simon Ourian — explained at the time. “I had to go and get this whole thing dissolved. It was a bummer and now I’m afraid to do it again. And I’m almost like, I swear things are still in my face.” Do you think Khloe is still having “work done”? The rest of the photos from the set when you continue…

Lynn Whitfield Talks Greenleaf & More! Beloved veteran actress (and legendary auntie) Lynn Whitfield is currently enjoying the success of OWN’s deliciously messy church drama Greenleaf that’s sweetened her golden legacy in Black Hollywood while also fueling loud whispers about a Thin Line Between Love And Hate sequel in the near (or not-so-near) future. But, for now, Auntie Lynn is focused on snatching church wigs as ruthless matriarch “Lady Mae” on a hit series that dives head first into everything uplifting, soul-simmering and ugly about the Black megachurch. “ Greenleaf , I’m very excited about… we’re telling a story that hasn’t been told and I love the work. I love the art form of telling a story” One of the many reasons to watch OWN’s #1 show is for Mother Oprah who plays Lady Mae’s bad(ly behaved) and boozy sister “Mavis McCready” when she’s not handpicking incredible talent like Lynn or ruling her TV empire. “We worked with (Oprah) before and I think she knew what she would get. Apparently, what she said was that she could only hear our voices and see our faces in the role of Bishop and Lady Greenleaf. She just knew who she wanted.” Months ago, Martin sent nostalgic Black movie lovers into a tizzy when he posted this on Instagram. Could it really be happening? Welllll… “About a year ago, or maybe it was less than a year, you know, they sent something over and we chit-chatted about it and, you know, he’s been busy. I’ve been busy. Let’s see what happens. Because I’m sure he’ll reach out or I’ll reach out and see what’s going on but it would be FUN–it’s hard, though, because it is a classic and how do you continue that and where Martin is and where I am now what would the story be? I have ideas! I always have ideas, we’ll see!” With a show as popular (and pearl clutch-worthy) as Greenleaf , we doubt the sequel (or reboot) happens anytime soon but Auntie Lynn is just grateful for her fans and longevity in the industry. “I feel very honored that people have been so loyal and stuck with me… EVEN BOSSIP yall mostly have been nice to me THANK…THE LORD. I mean, you know, for the most part, ohh a couple of times you got a few stomach shots and stretched the… -laughs- But, here’s the thing, you know, being able to see comments and hear comments and see that it actually meant something to people that they have, you know, been touched by the work or excited by the work and still expect good stuff and I feel even better when they say ‘you still fiiiine, you still got it goin on’ like… thank GOD they still even recognize me, you know, but it’s just great… it’s great to spend your life doing something” I’m still excited. I still love it. I get reaaaally–you know, I’m still like ‘Oh no no give me one more take!-one more take! you know, I’m excited!” We also chatted up the always reliable, often incredible Keith David (“Bishop Greenleaf,” Lady Mae’s husband) who reflected on his 30+ years in Hollywood. “Every opportunity I have to work, every chance I have to work is an opportunity to bring some joy into somebody’s life now whether we’re doing a comedy, a musical, doing a play, doing a movie, the field that we’re in is an opportunity to bring some joy into somebody’s life and that is an awesome responsibility but an awesome privilege to be able to pick up the gauntlet” Greenleaf Season 2 airs every Wednesday at 10 pm on OWN and, trust us, it’s LIT.

Sanaa Lathan Dishes On “Shots Fired” & More! We caught up with stunning (and super sweet) A-list actress Sanaa Lathan at Lincoln’s extravagant “Luxury Is…” experience in L.A. where she opened up about her highly anticipated FOX mini-series Shots Fired , Best Man 3 , staying 40-FINE and more with a beautifully breezy energy that made us fall in love with her all over again. After a strong 20 years in the game, she’s done everything you can do as a talented Black actress in whitewashed Hollyweird and switched it up with a major mini-series that’s an absolute must-see. “It’s created by the creator of Love & Basketball and it’s a 10-hour mini-series movie and it’s all set in the world of Black Lives Matter. And it’s a mystery thriller and it’s gonna be so hot and people are gonna be on the edge of their seats and it’s relevant and it’s topical to what’s going on in our country today… I play a woman named Ashe Akino and she’s an investigator and I have to go into this world and solve these crimes that have to do with what we’re dealing with today so I’m excited for the world to see that!” She also exclusively dished on her upcoming blockbuster that sounds like an easy $500 milli at the box office. “I just got back from London shooting a movie called American Assassin with Michael Keaton and a really amazing young actor named Dillon O’Brian and it’s similar to the Jason Bourne type of movies in that it’s based on a big book series that’s very popular…these books, there’s like, yanno…several…like, teens…like fifteens of books and one of the things that’s great about this is that my character–Irene Kennedy–is a white woman in the books so this is like a big franchise movie and they hired me, as a Black woman, to play a white woman character.” Sanaa has played everything from a vampire superhero’s mother to the most hated female character in Tyler Perry movie history ( The Family That Preys ), but it’s her unappreciated role in Alien Vs. Predator that got us cackling like old friends. “I’m an actress and I love playing all different types of characters… I don’t discriminate between genres so I love doing that, it was hard work regardless of what you thought of the movie… it was a grueling, challenging, FUN experience for me -Bossip: And you survived!- “*laughs* I survived as a Black woman…they slept on ( Alien Vs. Predator ) because, at that time, especially, every Black person in every scary movie was getting killed immediately and I not only survived, I was the last survivor and that’s part of the reason I wanted to do it. I was like ‘oh, I’m not gonna be another pawn in this movie that dies first or second…” For months, there were loud whispers about the third and final chapter of the beloved Best Man franchise but, according to Sanaa, it’s…not a go just yet. “We don’t have a start date for Best Man because everybody from Terrence to me, Nia, Taye we’re all doing…Regina…we’re all doing different things right now. The script is not quite finished. There’s been a lot of press which I love because it means people are excited but, no, we haven’t filmed it yet so who knows when that’s gonna happen. Fingers crossed.” Of course she touched on how she deals with industry rumors and gossip (that we’ve sometimes posted). “It goes with the territory you just gotta roll with it. I mean, sometimes it gets to you and, yanno, sometimes you laugh, sometimes it’s like UGH! It’s a kick in the stomach but, you know what, it’s part of the territory. I learned a loooong time ago from my mother if they’re not talkin about you then you aint doin nothin” You know we couldn’t let Sanaa go without asking how she stays 40-FINE at 45. “I think that beauty comes from inside and when you’re truly happy and you’re passionate about your life, it shines through. Period, end of story. And obviously we have to do things like take care of ourselves, the more you take care of yourself, the better you feel and the better you look.” Shots Fired premieres TONIGHT on FOX at 8 pm!

“Basketball Wives” Former Best Friends Are Still At Odds We thought that Evelyn Lozada and Jennifer Williams had buried the hatchet a long time ago but apparently nah . While news of Lozada rejoining the L.A. version of “Basketball Wives” next season was announced months ago, Williams recently revealed she had also been in talks to appear on the franchise that made both women famous as best friends who ultimately became enemies . In an interview with Bijou Star on Cleveland’s Z 107.9 Williams reveals that she has been spending time with Tami Roman and Shaunie O’Neal since moving to L.A. to pursue acting. She also says producers had approached her about appearing on “Basketball Wives L.A.” for the upcoming season… but apparently after some time passed those talks lapsed. Williams says when she asked for an explanation she learned that one of the other ladies from the show had some objections to her being part of the cast… Is it only reasonable to deduce that Evelyn is the culprit here? Or is it possible that someone else might have been the one with objections? Hate to say it, but we’re inclined to agree with Jennifer on this one. Question though, if you were her, would you really want to return to the show? Hit the flip to see Jennifer living it up in Hollywood with her other famous friends. Instagram

Keke Palmer addressed the Trey Songz situation for what she says is the last time, telling hosts of WGCI Chicago’s Morning Takeover that the Virginia singer was lying when he gave his version of events to the Breakfast Club earlier this month. Do you think that Keke should have left the situation alone being that she said she was over it? Or do you think she was right to respond since Trey had such a large platform when he called her a liar? Who do you believe? Also Keke mentions other women reaching out to her saying he treated them inappropriately as well — do you think Trey may have a larger issue on his hands? As for their friendship, do you believe it was salvageable before he did the “Breakfast Club” interview or was it already a wrap? The situation seems so hard to judge without actually being there WENN
