Meghan Markle: BANNED From Pippa Middleton’s Wedding?!

Posted on April 8, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Some claim that when Kate Middleton married Prince William  back in 2011, Kate’s sister, Pippa Middleton, received more press coverage than the bride. Obviously, that’s an exaggeration, but Pippa  did receive a lot of attention that day for reasons that still aren’t entirely clear. We guess it had something to do with Pippa’s butt and the fact that it’s apparently big by British standards. We imagine the average Englishman pops his monocle and faints dead away if you show him a picture of Kim Kardashian. Anyway, for whatever reason, many believe that Pippa stole the show from her royal sister, and now it seems Pippa is doing everything she can to avoid a similar fate on her own wedding day. Pippa will marry hedge fund manager James Matthews in May, and it was initially reported that her wedding would serve as a venue for the first official appearance of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle . Now, however, sources close to Pippa say she’s instituted a policy to ensure that she won’t be upstaged at her own wedding. Since arguing with the bride-to-be in the weeks leading up to a wedding can result in instant death-by-eye-gouging, Pippa could have simply said she doesn’t want to see anyone who’s name starts with “M” and ends with “-eghan Markle” at the ceremony. Instead, she kept up appearances by issuing a broader rule: Tipsters claim Pippa has announced a strict “no ring, no bring” policy, according to which, no guests will be permitted a plus one unless their married or engaged. Hilariously, it would also mean that her fiance’s brother, Spencer Matthews, would not be permitted to bring his model girlfriend, Vogue Williams. Apparently, that’s just fine by Pippa, as Williams is a somewhat of a celebrity in the UK, thanks to her role on the reality show Made in Chelsea . So Williams is a potential spotlight-stealer, too, but sources say she’s a collateral damage bonus kill for Pippa, who mainly has her sights set on Meghan. Of course, this whole thing could end up backfiring on Meghan. There are already rumors that Harry and Meghan are engaged , and even if that’s not the case, Harry still has a few weeks left to pop the question. Imagine the scenario: Harry shows up with Meghan; Pippa approaches to give her the boot; Meghan flashes a ring, and says something badass like, ” Butt out, Pippa.” Ryan Murphy would have a Pips vs. Meg miniseries ready to go the next day.

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino: Headed to Prison For Tax Evasion?!

Posted on April 8, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s been a long time since the general public actually cared about what the cast of Jersey Shore is up to, but remarkably, the Seaside Heights gang appears to be holding up pretty well post-fame. Well, most of them are, anyway. While Snooki, Vinny and the rest have carved out careers for themselves doing podcasts and appearing at “Hey, remember this guy?” conventions, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino hasn’t fared quite as well. The Sitch still makes the occasional headline these days, but it’s never for anything good. In fact, when we see his name these days, it’s usually because Sorrentino was arrested again. Most recently, Mike was locked up for his involvement in some sort of tanning salon melee , which is either the most appropriate or most ironic arrest in history. We can’t decide. But it was the arrest prior to that that’s still giving Mike legal headaches, and it could wind up landing him behind bars of a very long time. Mike was busted for tax fraud back in 2014, and it seems he still hasn’t sorted the issue out with the feds. Today, TMZ is reporting that Mike is still facing decades behind bars for tax evasion. The IRS claims that Sorrentino conspired with his brother (who’s also facing jail time) to conceal a significant portion of the $8.9 million that Mike made between 2010 and 2012. Yes, the freakin’ Situation made $8.9 million in two years. And you thought today’s political news was depressing! Anyway, far from backing down and working out a restitution plan, the U.S. Attorney in New Jersey is going hard on Sorrentino, adding a handful of new charges this week. Mike now faces allegations of tax evasion, as well as structuring and falsifying records to avoid detection of assets. Prosecutors maintain that the Sorrentino brothers filed false income tax returns and made fraudulent deductions. No trial date has been set, but it sounds like Mike may soon have quite the situation on his hands. Hey, at least if he goes to prison he’ll have plenty of time to work on his abs. And that’s it. We’ve exhausted out supply of The Situation jokes. If you’re keeping score at home, there were exactly two. Any more than that would require remembering more about The Situation than his stupid nickname and ab obsession and frankly, we can’t spare the brain real estate.

Alana Thompson: Sugar Bear Body-Shamed Me!

Posted on April 7, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Alana Thompson, AKA Honey Boo Boo, AKA the spawn of Mama June and Sugar Bear, has a sad, sad story to tell. She's been back in the spotlight since her mother, Mama June Shannon, got herself a brand new television show to document her incredible weight loss . The finale of Mama June: From Not to Hot airs tomorrow night, so June and Alana have been making the rounds, doing interview after interview. And in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Alana reveals that she's been body-shamed by her own father. How could you, Sugar Bear?! Seriously, after taking Alana to a restaurant and letting her order literally every dessert on the menu, how could you? Alana says that she was talking to her dad on the phone when he mentioned he needed to mow his lawn. She offered to do it for him if he had a riding lawn mower, but he responded by telling her “You're gonna need a push mower 'cause it couldn't hurt.” Look, if he thinks Alana needs to lose weight, he can provide her with a different diet . He could offer to do some fun physical activities with her. Making remarks like that don't help anyone, and at 11, Alana's at a very sensitive age. Sugar Bear should be ashamed of himself, but seeing as how he apparently doesn't have much to do with his daughter anymore, he's probably not all that capable of feeling shame. See the sad interview in the video below:

Jinger Duggar: Pregnant With First Child! (Report)

Posted on April 7, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

After weeks of rumors, several media outlets are now confirming the news that Jinger Duggar is pregnant with her first child. Jinger married Jeremy Vuolo back in November, and at the time, the couple told fans that they planned on starting a family as soon as possible. Last week, photos which some fans believe showed Jinger concealing a baby bump further fueled speculation, and now Duggar insiders have reportedly leaked the news. Not surprisingly, sources claim the Duggars are holding back on confirming the reports so that they can make the reveal to fans on a future episode of the family’s reality show, Counting On:  “Jinger and Jeremy are keeping the news under wraps to promote the upcoming season of Counting On,” an insider tells In Touch. The source adds that the pregnancy may prompt Jinger and Jeremy to relocate: “No one would be surprised if they moved back to Arkansas to be with her family.” There’s been no official word yet from Jinger or Jeremy, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the reports are bogus. In the past, the Duggars have gone to great lengths to conceal pregnancies and other big developments from fans until they felt the time was right. When Jessa Duggar was pregnant with her second child , the family managed to keep the news to themselves until well into her second trimester. No mean feat considering the amount of fan scrutiny on her every social media post. Unfortunately, it may be quite some time before Duggar devotees find out for sure if Jinger is expecting, as Counting On isn’t scheduled to return to TLC until sometime this summer. When asked about her pregnancy plans in a recent interview with People magazine, Jinger spoke only in the vaguest terms: “We are just enjoying our life together,” she told the magazine. “We will see what the Lord does.” Some fans have noted that Jinger didn’t mention being pregnant in a recent update she posted to her family’s official blog. Burt again, that doesn’t mean much. The Duggars have based their empire on controlling when and how information about their personal lives is revealed. You can be certain that if and when Jinger confirms she’s knocked up, she’ll do so on her parents’ timetable. Watch Counting On online to get caught up in time for the season to come.

Robyn Brown: Pregnant & Leaving Kody Brown?!

Posted on April 7, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For weeks now, we’ve been hearing rumors about Sister Wives star Robyn Brown divorcing husband Kody Brown . Insiders have claimed that Robyn has been fed up with Kody’s mistreatment for years. Some even gone so far as to accuse Kody of abusing Robyn . Now, Radar Online is reporting that Robyn has taken the first steps toward ending her marriage, and she’s acting not only for herself, but for her unborn child. Yes, the site is reporting that Robyn is pregnant with Kody’s 19th child, but is not planning on sticking out her troubled marriage for much longer. Insiders claim the 38-year-old has already contacted a divorce attorney after saving money for legal fees on the sly. The news comes courtesy of Robyn’s best friend, Kendra Pollard, who’s breaking her silence about the Browns’ badly damaged marriage. “Robyn has been planning to divorce him for a long time,” Pollard says. “Being pregnant has not changed her mind. She saved up enough money to retain a lawyer.” Pollard says that Robyn feels the family’s reality show has had a damaging effect on Kody’s relationships with his children and wives, as it’s led him to put fame and fortune above family. She adds that Robyn believes filing for divorce will bring an end to the Brown family’s TV fame, as the revelations she plans to make in court will leave audiences and advertisers alike wanting nothing to do with Kody. “This is really the end of ‘Sister Wives,” Pollard says. Pollard says the pregnancy, Robyn’s sixth, was not planned. “It was a complete surprise to Robyn,” Pollard claims, adding: “Kody was happy when Robyn told him she is pregnant. He wants a large family but he is unhappy that she refuses to let TLC film her talking about it.” Pollard says that despite the fact that his family is crumbling around him, Brown refuses to admit any wrongdoing. In fact, he reportedly maintains that he saved each of his wives’ lives by marrying them. “Robyn told me Kody told her that she would have nothing if it weren’t for him,” Pollard says. Of course, if the latest rumors are true, Kody may soon find that the public doesn’t have much interest in him without his wives. Watch Sister Wives online for more polygamous drama.

Catelynn Lowell & Tyler Baltierra Respond to Backlash Over Fake Pregnancy Joke: Get a Sense of Humor, People!

Posted on April 6, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Earlier today, we reported on one of the stranger Teen Mom social media controversies in recent memory. It all began when Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra began discussing their desire to have a third child on Twitter. It’s anyone’s guess as to why a married couple would need to have such a conversation on social media rather than, ya know, face-to-face, but while the parental figures of the Teen Mom franchise love ’em some free publicity, we doubt the Baltierras expected this : Things started out innocently enough, with Catelynn tweeting: “Wahhh I’m ready for another baby @TylerBaltierra.” Tyler (or T-Balz, as we like to call him) wrote back, “Me too babe.” That’s when Catelynn made the (arguably unfortunate) decision to tweet the following photo: She captioned the image: “Proud to announce a new baby Baltierra @tylerbaltierramtv.” Clearly it was a joke, but if you’ve looked at a calendar recently, you know that it’s 2017, and 2017 is the year in which everyone gets pissed off about everything. A number of fans didn’t think the joke was funny for a number of reasons. Some thought Lowell was really pregnant and … felt let down, we guess? Others thought the joke was insensitive to those who struggled with infertility. Still others blamed Tyler and Catelynn for that Kendall Jenner Pepsi commercial . Okay, we’re joking about that last part, but in all seriousness, a good number of fans were legitimately outraged, and Tyler responded by basically informing them that he’d run out of f–ks to give long, long ago: “Apparently the world can’t take jokes anymore…don’t worry #TeenMomOG will be back on the air soon so we can disappoint you some more,” Tyler tweeted. “I actually love all of those critics. The fake profile pics & repetitive insults based on the lack of creativity…they just crack me up.” Asked if he could see how some might have thought the joke was insensitive, Tyler responded: “Yes, I’m the lowest piece of s–t, insensitive, entitled, asshole & a sorry excuse of a human being & I shouldn’t be allowed to reproduce.” Man, when that guy does sarcasm, he does sarcasm . For her part, Catelynn responded in a very different and much, much more confusing way: “Why don’t u just go back to ur real family?” she tweeted. “Not like we have mattered anyways.. to u it’s just the thought that mattered” Uh … we really have no idea as to what that might mean. We’re thinking Catelynn meant to subtweet someone, but instead she just tossed that bad boy out there with no context. Of course, we think it’s safe to say she wasn’t in a great mood when she wrote it, so you can be sure it will lead to more rumors about Catelynn and Tyler getting divorced . This has been Teen Mom Twitter Theater. Tune in the next time something pops off, which should be in 20 minutes or so.

Alec Baldwin: LYING About Sex Scene With Underage Nikki Reed?!

Posted on April 6, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Alec Baldwin has a new memoir out, and like most things the sometimes-beloved actor is involved with, the release has not been without its share of controversy. Yes, Baldwin opens up on his feud with Trump . (He even admits they have some things in common!) And yes, he apologizes for being verbally abusive to Ireland Baldwin when she was a child (still hates her mom, though). But Baldwin likely penned those parts of his memoir knowing they would spark some conversations that would hopefully lead to a boost in sales. What he probably didn’t anticipate, however, is the brewing scandal surrounding the portion of the book that concerns a racy scene he shot with Nikki Reed in 2006 … when the actress was just 16 years old. Writing about his experiences shooting the indie film Mini’s First Time, Baldwin had this to say: “I was 47, and it never occurred to me to ask how old Nikki Reed was.” “When I found out, just as we finished, that she was 17, I flipped out on the producers, who had told me something different.” Now, Dana Brunetti, a producer on the film, is claiming Baldwin is doubly full of it: Brunetti says not only was Reed only 16 (not 17, as Baldwin claims), but that Baldwin was fully informed of her age before the scene was shot. “My first indie film was Mini’s starring @AlecBaldwin who knew @NikkiReed_I_Am was 16 (not 17) and he didn’t mind,” Brunetti tweeted last night. “In fact (Reed) was one of four actresses (Baldwin) had approved and her being the only one of those four repped by his own agency CAA.” Brunetti went into greater detail in an interview with The Hollywood Reporte r today, even going so far as to hit Baldwin with a Trump-related burn: “It’s a lie,” Brunetti tells the magazine. “I read it and was like, ‘What the f—. Of course he totally knew how old she was.” Brunetti added: “He knew before we even cast the movie. I think he’s been method acting Trump too much and he doesn’t know the difference between fake news anymore.” Fellow producer Ethan Astrowski backed up Brunetti’s version of events, stating: “What Alec says happened is not accurate. I completely corroborate that. We were on set every day.” The scene was perfectly legal due to the fact that Reed remained at least partially clothed, but lying about it is still not a good luck for Baldwin. And he was having such a great, relatively scandal-free year, too! Oh, well. There’s always 2018!

Beyonce and Jay Z Anniversary Celebration: 9 Years & Counting!

Posted on April 5, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

A handful of damaging rumors have dogged Beyonce over the past several days. There was chatter that she thinks she’s too fat to leave the house , for example. And there was talk that she and Jay Z are secretly paying money to a shadow organization that assures Beyonce only receives positive press. But while both of those reports are likely untrue, the following news item has been verified by a very reliable source: Beyonce and Jay Z have now been married for nine years! That’s nearly a full decade! Neither the singer nor the rapper has acknowledged today’s anniversary online, but Beyonce’s mother, Tina Knowles, couldn’t help but honor the couple via a very sweet post on Instagram. “9 years already??? Congratulations to the Carters on their Anniversary,” Knowles wrote as a caption to the following photo. “That’s my arm fixing the dress lol,” she added, referring to her tugging on the train of her daughter’s wedding dress in the throwback snapshot. Pretty cool, huh? It’s not often we see such cute, personal photos of Beyonce and Jay Z, who comprise both one of the world’s most famous couples and one of the world’s most private at the same time. Beyonce and Jay Z were married on April 4, 2008 in a private, intimate ceremony. As you can see, the gorgeous singer donned a strapless white gown with a ruffled train, which was designed by her mom, for the occasion. And while Beyonce looks amazing, Knowles revealed that Queen Bey wasn’t exactly thrilled with the end result. “She was so sweet to let me do that,” Knowles said on the Today Show in June 2016, adding: “She came back later one day and she said, ‘You know, when my daughter gets married, I’m going to let her pick out her own dress.’ “Maybe she wasn’t so excited about it at the time, but she’s a sweetheart.” View Slideshow: Beyonce Baby Names: What Will They Be? Beyonce and Jay Z are now the parents of daughter five-year old daughter Blue Ivy and they have two more kids on the way. Yes, TWO more: The singer announced in February that she is pregnant with twins . Last year, of course, the stars battled rumors of infidelity on Jay Z’s part; rumors that Beyonce herself basically fueled via her album “Lemonade,” in which she sang about her husband’s alleged mistress. She referred to this woman as Becky with the Good Hair . Despite the apparent scandal, however, Beyonce and Jay Z never separated. They never even stopped appearing in public together, lauging it up at Los Angeles Lakers games soon after the album was released. These two are masters are keeping the public guessing abut their love life. View Slideshow: Beyonce: See the Beyhive’s AMAZING Reactions to Pregnancy News! But whatever they are doing behind the scenes, it appears to be working. About fifty percent of all married couples in America get divorced, remember. So the mere fact that Beyonce and Jay Z have lasted for nine years must say something positive about husband and wife. Do they have another nine years in them? For the sake of their current child and the pair on the way… let’s hope so! Please join us in wishing a very happy anniversary to Beyonce and Jay Z!

John Stamos Helps Boyfriend Pull Off Best Proposal EVER

Posted on April 5, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Well, this video is totally and completely awesome. It centers on Doug Cox, a resident of San Francisco who really wanted to propose to his girlfriend Katrina Firenze. The only issue? In his own words, Katrina has a “John Stamos problem,” which means Doug also has a “Doug Stamos problem,” as evidenced by an actual photo of the Full House star on a wall on Katrina's house.  To wit: Therefore, in order to get his girlfriend's attention, and to make it clear he had the blessing of John Stamos, Doug wrote a letter to John Stamos that opened as follows: Let me just start by throwing a number at ya. 34 percent, John. 34 percent. That is the percentage of space the entire ‘Full House’ series takes up on my DVR. Doug proceeded to explain his personal pickle: My girlfriend, Katrina, is the most amazing human being I’ve ever met. She’s kind, she’s genuine, she can win over a room in seconds. I want to marry this woman, but there’s a brick wall in the way: A 6-foot-tall Greek God with better hair than me. And, John, I have fantastic hair. Incredible, Stamos didn't merely reply to Doug's email… … he did so by reading it out loud and then basically proposing to his biggest fan on behalf of her boyfriend. “From what I see here on this email that you sent, you’re a handsome man,” Stamos says in the following video, addressing Doug and then Katrina: “Nice hair, a beard, beautiful blue eyes. Katrina, I would say yes to young Doug. So I guess this is me asking you to marry him, and I hope you do it.” Have mercy, right?!? How does Katrina react to one of the greatest proposals we've ever witnessed? Click PLAY to find out!

Kim Kardashian Receives Devastating Phone Call, Breaks Down

Posted on April 3, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kim Kardashian received bad news on Keeping Up with the Kardashians this past Sunday night: She cannot take the risk of getting pregnant again. Due to health issues that played a role in Kim giving birth to children North West and Saint West, doctors advised Kim against trying for a third child on an especially emotional installment of this reality series. But Kim better get over that development quickly. Because she's about to get hit with another devastating piece of personal news. In our first sneak peek at the next all-new episode of this faltering show, we see Kim receive a phone call. We hear her start to cry and scream to whomever is on the other line: “Don’t scare me, please. What's going on?” Is there something wrong with her kids? Did her social media manager put up the wrong photo? Nope and nope. Instead, it's very safe to assume that this is Kardashian's reaction to learning that husband Kanye West just suffered some kind of mental breakdown and is being taken to the hospital. This incident occurred just a few weeks after Kim's robbery in Paris and led to Kanye ending up in a hospital for nine days. He's scarcely been seen in public or heard from since, as rumors persist about the state of his marriage. According to most reports at the time, however, Kardashian remained by the rapper's side as much as possible while he recovered from this self-inflicted attack. She hasn't spoken much to the media about it, but that doesn't mean she has a problem exploiting what happened for reality show ratings. Lord knows Keeping Up with the Kardashians could use some right about now. Check out the tear-filled trailer now:
