90 Day Fiance: Is Luis Accusing Molly of Domestic Violence?

90 Day Fiance couple Molly Hopkins and Luis Mendez are divorcing . Sometimes, reality television isn’t the best place to build your relationship. But sometimes, that’s just how things end. Now, Luis is lashing out, not only at TLC, but at Molly — claiming that she hoards 90 Day Fiance profits and has a wickedness of the heart. And … is he accusing her of domestic violence? Last year, it looked like Molly and Luis had made it . Because the 90 Day Fiance got married. 41-year-old Molly’s daughters weren’t exactly over the moon about the idea of 26-year-old Luis becoming their stepdad, but the marriage happened anyway. The couple had their ins and outs even after they tied the knot, splitting but then reconciling before the Tell All special. At the beginning January, however, they split for good. Also in January, Molly filed for divorce. Now, Luis is posting on social media, griping that Molly asked to have his cell phone back. “When someone is so miserable in the heart, they ask you for a cell phone back.” That sounds sort of standard to us — like changing the Netflix password after a breakup. But Luis has other gripes to air. “And that is not considering that she never share the profits of the reality show.” This is not the first time that Luis has complained about money. He thinks that it’s a sign that Molly is a bad person. “How materialistic and low-class can someone be?” Much more alarmingly, Luis also posted this vague yet ominous message to Facebook. “If you want to see all about domestic violence soon follow this page it’s gonna post there.” No one has seen any follow-up post. This is vague enough that he hasn’t actually made any official accusation yet. But … it sure looks to many people like Luis was teasing that he was about to accuse Molly of domestic violence. That wouldn’t be a 90 Day Fiance first, as fans saw Anfisa Arkhipchenko strikes Jorge Nava on camera. But even the possibility is worrisome. As we mentioned, Luis Mendez has complained about financial issues before. Last time, Luis was lashing out at TLC and claiming that he hadn’t been paid. “TLC is a piece of s–t.” Wow. Tell us how you really feel. “They only use the immigrant people for make million dollar.” Some would point out that that’s part of the premise of the show, basically. “They don’t pay to us in the first 90 days and they destroy our lives with bad fame.” It’s believed that perhaps the show was waiting to pay Luis until he had his work visa. That doesn’t sound like their fault. To hear Luis tell it, though, it was a conspiracy. “But I don’t received any money only the American people do because we are trash for them.” He then declared that he was considering suing them. Instagram commenters were quick to shoot down Luis’ complaints about money. “I am sure you signed a liability waiver releasing TLC from lawsuits…plus I thought your purpose for being on the show was to document the process with your love Molly…sounds like all you were interested in was a pay day.” Some people were quick to defend Molly in particular. “Geesh so he came over here agreeing to be on tv and did not bother to read his contract then screwed over his own wife in the process. Sounds like she should be suing him.” He did, however, have his defenders. “Not really sure why everybody thinks everything is his fault. There are 2 sides to a story. But ok keep thinking he is this horrible person because I’m sure he isn’t.” There’s no telling how this mess will end. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Couples: Who’s Still Together?

Demi Lovato Dishes on "Fluid" Sexuality… and More!

Demi Lovato is not shy about sharing photos of her massive cleavage online . And, as she’s made more and more clear in a handful of recent interviews, the singer isn’t shy about admitting that this cleavage is no longer reserved for the opposite sex, either. If a woman wants to fondle it, hey… Lovato might be down! “I’m very fluid, and I think love is love,” Lovato says in the new issue of InStyle, adding very simply: “You can find it in any gender. I like the freedom of being able to flirt with whoever I want.” The artist, of course, famously dated Wilmer Valderrama for six years. She was then linked to MMA fighter Guilherme “Bomba” Vasconcelos. But just because Lovato is yet to officially date a female, the artist has said many times now that she’s bisexual and would consider it . “I am open to human connection,” Demi said in her YouTube documentary, “Simply Complicated,” adding very basically in this video: “I love who I love.” Right now, however, Lovato is single. She is not actively loving anyone. But this doesn’t mean she’s sad or regretful or lonely or anything like that. “I’m not suffering because I’m alone,” she tells the magazine, explaining her evolution as follows: “There were many years I was in a relationship and I wasn’t learning about myself. Now I’m learning about what I like, what I need, and what I want.” In other words: Demi has matured. She’s just had to do it at times in the spotlight, which can be a challenge for anyone, let alone someone with a history of drug abuse and who has been diagnosed as bipolar . “You have to speak out about stuff. You have to use your voice for good,” the star says. This is certainly something Lovato has done, getting very deep and very personal with how she formerly abused her body . She continues: “I didn’t have anybody who was doing that when I was younger. I grew up in the era of really, really skinny celebrities. That was the look. “And it was cool to be seen partying. Drugs were glamorized, and when I was 12 or 13, nobody [I looked up to] was talking about mental illness. “Nobody was talking about eating disorders. Nobody was talking about cutting. I wanted somebody for my little sister to look up to. “I took on that role because I knew it was important.” We’ve said so many times that we admire Lovato for her candor and the way she has handled these kinds of struggles. But it really can’t be said enough, can it? View Slideshow: Demi Lovato: 19 Candid Confessions from Her Documentary Demi also appreciates her status as a role model. She has often answered questions from fans and has always encouraged them to turn to her with any issues to which she can relate. “They’re very emotional. A lot of times people use that opportunity to dump their problems on me because they don’t know who else to talk to,” Lovato says of her meet and greets, concluding: “They show me their cuts. I’ve had people come up to me and say, ‘I was going to kill myself until I got this meet and greet.’ And you’re just like, ‘What?’ “Sometimes I’ll meditate afterwards. Sometimes I’ll just kind of breathe. I used to sage myself. It’s very heavy.” We can only imagine.

Riverdale Season 2 Episode 14 Recap: The Hills Have Eyes

Haven’t the Riverdale kids ever heard of slasher movies? On Riverdale Season 2 Episode 14 , Archie, Betty and Jughead accompanied Veronica along to the Lodge lodge, and we think it’s fair to say they got more than they bargained for.  Veronica was talking about the place like she was on some sort of real estate TV series, and it was obvious things were going to go off the rails when the youngest member of the Lodge family confirmed to Jughead the lucrative home was in an exclusive community without anything to distinguish the houses.  The trip got off to an awkward start when a scorned Cheryl called Jughead to let him know about that kiss Archie and Betty shared earlier on Riverdale Season 2 . While Jughead was mad because he opened up about his relationship with Toni, he agreed to move on from it with Betty.  But then things took another explosive turn when the foursome got drunk on Veronica’s Jalapeno Margaritas. Jughead was getting progressively drunker and got mad about the kiss again.  That’s when Queen Veronica stepped up to the challenge and locked lips with Jughead. Betty and Archie watched on from the sidelines, knowing full well that they had created a monster.  This encounter helped Jughead and Betty relight the fire in their love life, and Betty found herself channeling Dark Betty to seduce her man. Archie and Betty were shocked when they could hear the sounds coming from the room.  But Archie was mad … even though he did not want to admit it. He took his frustration out on some wood the next morning, swinging an ax while Veronica watched on from the sidelines. Then, she followed Archie into the woods and found him conferring with Hiram’s right-hand man.  He was sent to watch over the teens because Hiram was worried there was pushback because of the murder of Papa Poutine. Veronica was livid and sent the man home.  She and Betty decided to leave the house for a few to get away from the men, and that’s when they bumped into a cute sales assistant named Cassidy. Veronica swooned the moment she walked into the store.  Back at the lodge, Betty yelled at Veronica in the aftermath of learning that Hiram was buying The Register in an attempt to control the narrative in Riverdale. This came a few scenes after Hiram bought Sunnyside Trailer Park.  Archie sided with Veronica as Jughead and Betty hurled the insults their way. They were interrupted by a home invasion from the three masked men at the store.  Veronica managed to send a message to her father, and the phone started ringing.  That was enough for the three men to run off into the woods, but the black hoods struck a chord with Archie, and he ran after them. Hiram’s goon helped him with one of them, but Archie was sent home.  A gunshot rang out in the woods, and Archie knew the teenager was dead. He returned to the lodge.  Meanwhile, in Riverdale …  Cheryl revealed to Toni that she was once in love with a girl named Heather, but Penelope shut it down and called her “deviant.” Is it just us, or is Penelope the root of all Cheryl’s problems? Chick threatened Alice and Betty’s life when he learned that Jughead knew about the murder in the Cooper household.  Kevin and Josie learned the truth about their parents having steamy motel hookups and managed to come to an understanding by the close of the episode.  Kevin served as the third wheel on Midge and Moose’s date, and things got awkward when Midge wondered how they met.  Okay, Riverdale Fans.  What did you think of the episode? Hit the comments below.  Remember you can watch Riverdale online right here! View Slideshow: American Idol Will Be a Total Failure. This is Why.

Dayanna Volitich: Teacher Exposed as White Nationalist Media Figure

Until last week, Dayanna Volitich was a beloved social studies teacher at Crystal River Middle School outside of Tampa. Tiana Dalichov is a popular podcast host who has made a name for herself preaching hate and bigotry to an audience of like-minded white nationalists. Needless to say, Volitich’s bosses were shocked to find out they’re the same person. According to The Washington Post , Volitich is a self-professed anti-Semite who believes Muslims should be eradicated from the Earth and that whites are genetically superior to other races. For the past year, she lived a double life and carefully concealed her abhorrent worldview from teaching colleagues while actively spreading hate on the internet. Over the weekend, parents in the Citrus County School District were notified that Volitich had been exposed in a piece published by Huffington Post and was promptly fired as a result. “On Friday, March 2, 2018 the Citrus County School District was made aware of a concerning podcast by a Huffington Post reporter. The reporter indicated they believed one of the persons participating in the podcast was a teacher at Crystal River Middle School,” reads a statement on the district’s Facebook page. “The Human Resources department was notified and an investigation was initiated immediately. The teacher has been removed from the classroom and the investigation is ongoing. “Pursuant to Florida Statute an open investigation and materials related to it are exempt from public record and cannot be discussed until the investigation is complete,” the statement concluded. Frighteningly, on her podcast, Volitich spoke of going to great lengths to hide her beliefs, and she encouraged other white nationalists to “infiltrate” America’s public schools as teachers. “I’m pretty hyper aware that [administrators and colleagues] will be watching. They’ll be listening, and so I’m getting a little more underhanded,” Volitich told a guest on her podcast. “I was able to anticipate when they would be there to evaluate, and so I did what I was supposed to do. I danced like a little puppet, and I waited until they were gone,” she added. In a statement released to a Tampa-area media outlet, Volitich claimed that her podcast was a work of satire and was not meant to be taken seriously: “None of the statements released about my being a white nationalist or white supremacist have any truth to them, nor are my political beliefs injected into my teaching of social studies curriculum,” Volitich’s statement reads. “While operating under the Russian pseudonym ‘Tiana Dalichov’ on social media and the Unapologetic Podcast, I employed political satire and exaggeration, mainly to the end of attracting listeners and followers, and generating conversation about the content discussed between myself and my guests.” On her popular Twitter page, Volitich/Dalichov tweeted that she “may disappear for a while” following this week’s revelations. Within 24 hours, the account had been deleted. Volitich’s whereabouts are currently unknown.

Tila Tequila: Pregnant With Baby #2!

If you’re not familiar with Tila Tequila … well, then you may want to stop reading now. You’re definitely better off living the rest of your life in blissful ignorance of this pint-sized demon lady. However, if you’re already unfortunate enough to be familiar with Tila’s racist, hateful way of life, then you might as well stay informed about this long national nightmare. As you may already know Tequila welcomed a child  back in 2014, which is an odd phrase for a number of reasons. Now, it seems there’s another worm in the bottle … or something. “The Lord God has blessed me with baby #2!!!!!” Tila wrote on her official Facebook page today. “Praise the Father in Heaven for He is merciful and graceful! I give glory to Him every day.” Yes, Tila is as racist and seemingly mentally ill as ever, but she’s also super into God these days. As a result, her birth announcement sounded like something Samuel L. Jackson would say after taking a bite of your Big Kahuna burger: “May all the blood of the saints be brought to justice for the time has come! The time hath come for our Father God in heaven to reveal himself to us!” Tila wrote. “The time hath cometh when great hailstones of fire and brimestone will shoot across the heavens down to the earth to smite every wicked tongue that has cursed his name!” Needless to say, Ms. Tequila is extremely stable these days and there’s no reason to be deeply concerned by the fact that she’ll soon be responsible for the health and safety of two children. She went on to reveal that she was targeted for death by the Illuminati and warn her haters that they’ll soon be struck down by Jesus: “They tried to kill me in 2012 but Jesus brought me back to life and now all the illuminati fear me because my God is mighty!!!” Tila wrote. “Meanwhile, I find it hilarious how all the haters have been calling me ‘fat’ and telling me that God is going to punish me for the things I have been saying and always trying to send curses my way,” she added. “But God took all your wretched curses and turned them into huge blessings for me instead!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAY!!!” You have to appreciate the deftness with which she alternates between ultra-basic Valley girl and dude who filled the food pantry of his backyard bomb shelter with nothing but Bibles and AR-15s. Anyway, um … congrats to Tila – and best of luck to her future son or daughter.

Farrah Abraham Sends Final Message to Teen Mom Cast

As many adult entertainment fans know well, Farrah Abraham has no problem with the backdoor. But the long-time MTV personality has now been shown a door of a very different kind: She’s been fired from Teen Mom OG. Not only has the controversial parent been let go from this franchise, she’s already been replaced. Sources tell The Hollywood Gossip that former Teen Mom 3 star Mackenzie McKee is already shooting episodes as the latest OG series regular. How does Abraham feel about this development? She previously told Us Weekly that the show will miss its “biggest star” and that she’s content to focus now on “scripted opportunities, taking a pretty high road for someone who has never been afraid to hurl some serious shade at producers and colleagues over the years. And now Farrah has spoken out again about her departure. Did she slam the living heck out of McKee or any of her veteran co-stars? Not really, we’re very sad to report. “I wish all the women of Teen Mom the best as their jealousy, hatred, and women-hating should stop and more so lift up and empower women,” Abraham told PopCulture.com on Friday, adding: “This show lacks [confidence], [security], honesty and integrity, which is why the adults of this show must be controlled and puppeteered by producers and staff.” Not exactly a sweet parting shot. But nothing like what Abraham has said in past about the series , either. Speaking specifically to Catelynn Lowell, Maci Bookout and Amber Portwood, Farrah said she hopes these women really take a long look in the mirror. If not for themselves, then for their kids. “The effect on their children is concerning,” she says. “I deeply hope the mothers and fathers take their children’s development and safety more serious.” As someone who keeps nude photos of her young daughter on her phone , Farrah does know a thing or two about proper child development and treatment. “As I start a new chapter, I wish all the families the best in safety and health,” she concluded in this interview, ending on as mature a note as she could muster. Having seemingly accepted her fate, Farrah also sent a message to her haters and critics. She knows they are out there. She knows they are waiting to jump on her every word and action. But they can talk all the walk they want, she taunts; she’s out here walking the damn walk! “To make a change in society, ‘see something say something,'” she explained here. “Many [trolls] aren’t leaders and making world changes. I chose this life, I will always continue to make this world a better place above all the lies and attacks against me.” What kind of legacy does Farrah think she has left? Where does she rank herself among all time villains or favorites on MTV or even on other networks? She didn’t say, exactly. However, just like the erect penises of men who view her sex tape are pointing toward the ceiling, she is holding her head up high: “I think I’ve done this better than most in reality TV.” View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham: Her Hilarious Dating Profile Revealed!

David Ogden Stiers Dies; M*A*S*H* Star Was 75

David Ogden Stiers is best known for having played Major Charles Emerson Winchester III on the hit series M*A*S*H* and for voicing Cogsworth in Beauty and the Beast . Those are just two highlights of a prolific career. Sadly, the legendary actor has now passed away. He was 75 years old. David Ogden Stiers passed away peacefully in his home in Newport. His agent, Mitchell Stubbs, tells The Oregonian/Oregon Live that the esteemed actor had been waging a losing war against bladder cancer . Cancer is a vicious killer, and doesn’t care how talented someone is or the level of their cultural impact. Even those who have never seen an episode of M*A*S*H* in their lives have doubtless been touched by Stiers’ work on television, in films, in animation, and in video games. David Ogden Stiers was born in Peoria, Illinois to parents Margaret Elizabeth (whose maiden name was Ogden) and Kenneth Truman Stiers. As a young man, David briefly attended the University of Oregon after graduating from North Eugene High School. However, he would end up moving to San Francisco in order to pursue his passion for acting. He worked with such groups as California Shakespeare Theater, San Francisco Actors Workshop, and an improv group called The Committee.  Stiers studied drama at Juilliard from 1968 until 1972, where he was mentored by John Houseman. His very early acting credits included The Mary Tyler Moore Show and appearing in the pilot of Charlie’s Angels . David Ogden Stiers’ very distinctive voice can be heard off-screen in  THX-1138 , which was George Lucas’ very first film. Obviously, most people’s first memorable introduction to Stiers was when he joined the cast of M*A*S*H* in 1977, filling the void created by the departure of Larry Linville (who portrayed Frank Burns). Stiers portrayed an aristocratic and haughty man who was nonetheless an extremely talented surgeon. He was nominated for two Emmy Awards for that role, the first in 1981 and the second in 1982. In terms of voicework, easily his most famous role was in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast , voicing Cogsworth, the clock who quips “If it isn’t Baroque, don’t fix it.” He would go on to do more work for Disney, voicing the primary antagonist of Pocahontas (we mean Governor Radcliffe, not the concepts of colonialism or of Disney’s historical whitewashing). He also had roles in Atlantis: The Lost Empire (arguably Disney’s most underrated film) and in The Hunchback of Notre Dame . And, of course, he voiced Jumba Jookiba in Lilo & Stitch . David Ogden Stiers continued to make appearances in live action media as well, appearing as the villainous Oberoth in a recurring role on Stargate Atlantis in 2007 and appearing in an episode of Leverage in 2011. In 2009, Stiers came out as gay, stating in an interview that he was “very proud to be so” and he no longer wished to hide it. Good for him. Though he lived a full life and fans will always treasure his work, he will be missed. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam
