Man Gets Donald Trump "Pussy" Tattoo, Fiancee Hates It

Posted on March 31, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jordan Murphy is a chef who lives in England. But that’s not what the 21-year old is now known as on the Internet. He’s known as The Idiot Who Didn’t Just Get a Donald Trump Tattoo on His Leg, But the Idiot Who Got a Donald Trump PUSSY Tattoo on His Leg. He looks pretty normal, right? But Murphy told The Sun that he thought it would be a “fun” idea to pay 40 pounds (about 50 U.S. dollars) in order to get a giant etching of the President of the United States on his leg. He wasn’t content with a mere drawing that resembled Trump, however. Murphy decided on a version of Trump’s face… … Along with the words ” Grab Her By The Pussy ,” which Trump, of course, uttered to Billy Bush in a recording from 2005 that went viral this fall and somehow did NOT lead to the end of his candidacy. What inspired this idea? Murphy says he saw the drawing (by friend and tattoo artist Luke Beddows) and simply had to have it on his person. “It’s just a bit of fun. People generally find it hilarious,” Murphy explains to The Sun . “I know it’s controversial, but it doesn’t mean I agree with his views.” We guess it doesn’t have to mean that, no. But have fun making this clear to everyone who sees your leg. For the rest of your life. “I also have a pig’s head on me, but that doesn’t make me a Satanist. I just think the art is really cool,” Murphy, who has over 10 tattoos across his body, added. However, while Jordan is apparently cool with this Trump quote and likeness, someone pretty close to his heart has a problem with it. “My fiancée hates it, though,” he says. “When I saw Luke’s drawing and said I was thinking about getting it, she told me not to do it. At first I told her it was a lot smaller than it actually is, so when she saw it for real she was fuming.” As far as we know, the wedding is still on, despite this disagreement. How have friends reacted? They’re pretty “laid back” about the tattoo, Murphy says, while Beddows tells the newspaper that he purposely gave Trump a double-chin to make the drawing “stand out.” We’re pretty sure it would have stood out regardless. But whatever. Like Beddows himself said to The Sun, to “each [his] own.” View Slideshow: 21 Wild and Totally Crazy Tattoos People Somehow Have on Them

The Today Show Shake-Up: Who May Be Out?

Posted on March 30, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s not a fun time to be a morning show personality. Over on ABC, reports indicate that Michael Strahan has created quite a bit of tension on set, with Lara Spencer especially unhappy over her reduced role now that the ex-NFL star is on board. In the wake of this upheaval, chatter has turned to Good Morning America’s rival at NBC. Many are wondering: What might Megyn Kelly’s arrival mean for Today Show staffers? To kick off 2017, Kelly said goodbye to Fox News and hello to her new broadcast home. Ever since committing to the network, however, Kelly has been careful not to reveal very much about when viewers will see her debut and in what fashion. According to most reliable sources, Kelly will be given a five-days-a-week program that airs some time in the morning each day. As a result, one of the hours of The Today Show will very likely be axed. In late January, Tamron Hall left the program out of anger that she and Al Roker are presumably getting bumped to make room for Kelly. So there’s already been a shake-up behind the scenes and in front of the camera… and insiders don’t expect things to calm down any time soon, either.  Kelly “wants to do a smart morning political show and wants to hire her own staff,” someone in the know tells Radar Online, explaining why this is a problem: “But NBC [is] pushing for more of a daytime show with an audience like Phil Donahue under the Today umbrella and staff.” Until these very important details get worked out, Kelly will reportedly begin her stint as an NBC employee by hosting a weekend show, prior to shifting to her regular weekday slot. This doesn’t sit well with the woman who just left the network that made her rich and famous in order to get a fresh start and a new opportunity at NBC. ” Megyn is pissed that she’s going to get a slow rollout starting with just a weekend show that no one care about,” Radar writes. At this point, no one associated with Today is very happy. They don’t know what the future will bring; whether Kelly will essentially take over completely or simply be dropped in amidst the staffers already in place. “It is a mess and causing massive internal drama,” an insider tells Radar. “The staff at The Today show’s 9 and 10 am hour do not know if they should be looking for new jobs.” Heck, even Kathie Lee and Hoda Kotb “have been kept in the dark about what is happening to their show and are livid,” the source says. You’d think executives would at least be making it a priority to ensure Kelly is happy, but that simply hasn’t been the case, according to this article. “She was promised firework and a huge advertising campaign around her debut,” the source says. But now? “It doesn’t even look like she will be getting a weekday show until the end of the year. They have managed to piss off everyone!”

Kim Kardashian: Planning for Life After Kanye?!?

Posted on March 28, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kim Kardashian is hitting the gym often these days. She’s keeping an eye on what she eats. She’s checking the scale often and she’s trying very hard to get her prime bikini body back. Because she wants to be as healthy as possible and because she wants to set a positive example for her kids? Not quite. According to an anonymous Radar Online insider, Kim is taking these steps because she assumes she’ll soon be single once again. Oh, yes, this report alleges that those Kim and Kanye West divorce rumors are not made up. “She’s got a dark ulterior motive for getting into such tip-top shape – for life after Kanye West !” the source hilariously says. What does increasing her number of cardio workouts and picking up many free weights each week have to do with her marriage? Or plans to end her marriage? “Kim isn’t taking any chances,” this mole explains, adding: “[She] wants to look as sexy as possible in case she’s back on the singles scene and Kanye doesn’t come through with his promises.” Ah, yes. Okay. That makes perfect sense. The mother of two young children, who has told the world that Kanye is her dream man, doesn’t simply want a divorce; she wants to make sure she is attractive enough to date again right after the split is finalized! In the wake of Kardashian getting robbed in Paris last fall and West then falling victim to some kind of nervous breakdown, reports of this couple’s demise have popped up frequently online. Each has been dealing with such personal trauma that the stars haven’t been able to make much time for each other. As a result, previous articles claimed that Kim and Kanye are attending extreme couples counseling . They know their union is in trouble and they’re doing whatever they can to save it. “They’re having twice-weekly sessions, plus a third session on their own, each of which costs $1,000 a pop,” a source close to the pair told Radar Online earlier this year. This same insider said that even when husband and wife are at home or on vacation, they are never far away from the professional assistance they require these days: “Their on-call therapist is available 24/7, which doesn’t come cheap, but she’s also available via Skype if they’re out of town.” As you can see via the Kim Kardashian photos above, the world’s most famous reality star has returned to Instagram… … in very sexy fashion. She’s back to posting pictures of her sleek body and her impressive cleavage, lending some credence to the claim that she’s hitting the gym more often than usual. This could simply be due to renewed self-confidence after the initial psychological shake-up of that October armed robbery. It could be because she’s re-entering the spotlight after taking a lot of time to herself and wants to look as seductive as possible as she does so, because that’s always been her thing. Even Radar Online admits that Kardashian’s weight loss could be related to what happened to her in France. “Looking good and getting into shape has been a form of therapy since the robbery, and she’s so proud to have her body back,” this report says. But it won’t let go of the assertion that pictures such as the one immediately above are also related to her marital hiccups. And the possibility that she may be single once again in the near future. “It’s no secret they’ve papered over a lot of huge problems,” Radar writes of Kimye, concluding: “She’s open about the fact she’d dive straight back into the dating scene if her marriage doesn’t work out.” And by open , this source apparently means that she’s never once said it in public and we’ve never once read it anywhere prior to this. But you never know! View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian: 20 Weird Facts About the Sex Tape Star

Luke Pell and Danielle Lombard: Dating?!?

Posted on March 27, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If you don’t find love on your season of The Bachelor/The Bachelorette , is it best to stick to dating other participants of the shows in Bachelor Nation? That appears to be the question Luke Pell and Danielle Lombard were asking when they started getting up close and personal . For the record, there is no official confirmation yet about whether they are a thing. However, the rumors went into overdrive when the couple attended the Music Lounge by iHeartMedia + BMG Media Event with fellow Bachelor Nation member, Vinny Ventiera.  People at the event claimed that Pell and Lombard were all over each other, so it definitely sounds like they are well on their way to becoming the next couple in the franchise.  Pell apparently debunked rumors of them dating after an interview with US Weekly, but it sure seems like the duo are trying to keep their relationship as low-key as possible.  It’s difficult to imagine their relationship flourishing if Pell was successful at being the suitor on The Bachelor Season 21. Yes, there were rumblings that he was all set to film the promotional campaign for the series.  View Slideshow: Nick Viall as The Bachelor: Twitter Reacts! That all fell apart when it was announce Nick Viall would take on the coveted role and Pell was left out to pasture. It was a random turn of events, but it drummed up a lot of interest for the show.  Pell, on the other hand, was not impressed with the eleventh-hour switcheroo and revealed his shock at Viall’s casting in interviews. If it really went down the way Pell said it did, it’s understandable that he would be annoyed.  For what it’s worth, Nick’s season was actually pretty good. It was full of drama (thanks to Corinne!), and the contestants were pretty memorable.  Nick eventually chose Vanessa Grimaldi as the woman he would propose to. It was cute but expected.  What do you think about all of this? Sound off below! View Slideshow: Bachelor in Paradise Season 4: Cast Members Who Need to Be There

Antonio Banderas: Suffered Major Heart Attack?!

Posted on March 26, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

At this point in time, thanks to his many, many legendary film roles , his fragrances, and his face, it’s pretty safe to say that Antonio Banderas is an international treasure. But at 56 years old, he’s not as young as he used to be. And no one can say that the man hasn’t done a whole lot of living . So it shouldn’t have come as surprise when Antonio revealed last night that he suffered a heart attack back in January, you know? But still, it really, really did. As you may remember, we heard back in January that he was taken to a hospital just outside London because he’d began feeling pains in his chest while exercising. At the time, his rep claimed in a statement that “Antonio was released that same day after doctors performed a check-up which confirmed his good health.” Sounds like no big deal, right? Wrong. Last night, Antonio made an appearance at the Malaga Film Festival, and he admitted what really went down. “I suffered a heart attack on January 26th,” he explained. “It was a benign attack, it hasn’t caused any permanent damage and now I’m in a recovery period.” “It was something that happens every day to a lot of people,” he added. “I didn’t hide it, but I didn’t want it to receive more importance than those suffered by other people .” He also said that though doctors implanted three stents to help out with those narrowed arteries in his heart, “It wasn’t as dramatic as it was made out to be.” And while it sounds pretty damn dramatic to us, apparently he really did get released that same day. He was also well enough to pose for a selfie with his girlfriend, Nikole Kimpel, and to throw it up on Instagram just a few days after the heart attack. “Enjoying nature after a startle,” he captioned the photo. Bless his heart. The issue that brought on the heart attack, he explained last night, was likely the stress he’s experienced for decades. After all, he’s worked a lot during his career, and it’s involved an unbelievable amount of traveling. “I’m now reviewing a lot of things,” he said, to get his health under control. And it’s a good thing, too — just last week, he reportedly experienced more chest pains, bad enough to go to another hospital. He claimed that that hospital visit was just a check-up, but if he’s able to hide a heart attack for two months, we wouldn’t hold our breath on that one. Feel better, Antonio. Please.

United Airlines Earns Ire of Twitter for THIS Company Policy

Posted on March 26, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

WARNING : The following story is likely to make your blood boil. Shannon Watts – a mother of five from Colorado and founder of pro-gun control organization Moms Demand Action – shared on Twitter Sunday that young passengers getting on board a flight from Denver to Minneapolis were not allowed down the walkway unless they changed outfits. Two girls in particular, one of whom was 10 years old, were barred from boarding because they were wearing leggings. They had to actually cover up more and wait for the next flight to Minnesota. The incident has gone viral – with everyone from People Magazine to The New York Times picking it up – and United responded to Watts on Twitter by writing that they “have the right to refuse transport for passengers who are barefoot or not properly clothed.” As used in this context, that response has not sat well with many people on social media, including quite a few you've probably heard of… 1. The Opening Tweets This is how Watts alerted social media to the situation. 2. The United Response The airline checked and said the passengers in question appeared to be family members of employees and were therefore held to a high standard, per company bylaws. 3. Patricia Arquette‏ Responds @united Leggings are business attire for 10 year olds. Their business is being children. 4. And Chrissy Teigen I have flown united before with literally no pants on. Just a top as a dress. Next time I will wear only jeans and a scarf. 5. And Sarah Silverman Hey @united I fly a LOT. About to go on tour all April and changing all my @united flights to other airlines. 6. And Andy Richter .@united I have flown numerous times while displaying an egregious mooseknuckle. What’s a male over 10 have to do to get noticed? View Slideshow

Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds Honored in Touching Public Memorial

Posted on March 25, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It may seem difficult to believe, but it’s been three months now since Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds died. Absolutely heartbreaking, right? On December 23rd, Carrie was on a flight to L.A. when she suffered a massive heart attack. When paramedics were able to get to her on the airport, she was unresponsive. She remained in the hospital for a few days, but on December 27th, she passed away . The very next day, Carrie’s mother, the legendary Debbie Reynolds, died after suffering a stroke . Intense, right? And so very, very heartbreaking. Carrie and Debbie had a joint funeral in January for family and friends: Carrie was cremated with her ashes placed in an urn shaped like a Prozac pill , and Debbie was buried along with some of Carrie’s ashes. But today, a public memorial was held for them both at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in L.A. And it was so, so touching. The event was organized by Todd Fisher, Carrie’s brother and Debbie’s son. In a speech to the audience, Todd explained that “When Carrie died, my mother decided to change her plans a bit.” “My mother always said to me, ‘I never want to go to my daughter’s funeral service. I would like to be buried with Carrie.'” “I didn’t know she was going to leave us the very next day,” he said, “and when she looked at me to ask permission to leave, she said she wanted to be with Carrie, and she closed her eyes and went to sleep.” “It was a beautiful exit.” The service featured music composed by John Williams, as well as performances by the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles and dancers from Debbie Reynolds’ dance studio. Dan Aykroyd, Carrie’d one-time fiancé, provided the closing remarks. James Blunt wrote a song for the occasion — he was a close friend of Carrie’s, close enough that he chose her to be the godmother of his child. In an earlier interview, Todd said that “The last lyric in the song, it’s a beautiful song, is ‘I’m here to let you know. I’m here to let you go.'” “And it’s powerful.” Todd’s also explained that he wanted to hold a special service for the public because “That’s how my mother would want it.” He explained that “She was very connected to her fans and felt they were part of her, so we’re opening it to the public.” After the memorial service, fans were able to visit Debbie and Carrie’s graves. What an incredible loss, but still, what a touching tribute to these two legendary ladies. View Slideshow: 2016 Celebrity Deaths: 21 Tributes to 21 Stars

Farrah Abraham Shares Raciest Video Since Her Sex Tape!!!

Posted on March 25, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Farrah Abraham has always been a big fan of doing anything and everything for some attention. Bless her simple, desperate little heart. She's starred in two sex tapes, she's released her own line of sex toys , she's “written” an erotic novel. She's done numerous racy photo shoots, including one with a fellow porn star. She's put her eight-year-old daughter in bikinis and heels so that she could get a jump start on her own modeling career , she's left her daughter for weeks at a time to do dumb reality shows or just to screw around. It's a lot. Farrah's done a lot of things, and literally none of them are good. So when we saw this new video of Farrah promoting that fancy strapless bra that's supposed to give you killer cleavage … well, it's actually pretty tame, now that we think about it. In the video, Farrah shows off the bra, jiggling her breasts around this way and that. Unfortunately, Farrah's had, what, three boob jobs now? So they don't jiggle all that much, and the bra doesn't really do anything for them. You're not going to have much sagging if you're a 25-year-old who's had more plastic surgery than most of the population combined, you know? But congrats, Farrah. We're looking at you. Take a look for yourself in the video below:

Cory Booker Asks Out Mindy Kaling!!!!!

Posted on March 24, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Major political news has taken the nation by storm. The Republican Party was forced to pull the plug on the American Health Care Act Friday after lacking enough votes to clear the House floor, forcing Paul Ryan and Donald Trump to admit that Obamacare will remain the law of the land. What? Huh? No. Well… yes. That happened. But it’s not the major political story we’re tracking here at The Hollywood Gossip. In a far more important breaking development, United States Senator Cory Booker has asked comedic actress Mindy Kaling out on a date! It all started when the New Jersey native playfully chided Kaling’s alter ego – Dr. Mindy Lahiri on Hulu’s The Mindy Project – for poking fun at his hometown of Newark on her series. “I guess anything to get out of Newark, huh?” the character joked in a recent episode about Booker’s attendance at a party. In response, the outspoken and good-humored politician quoted the scene on Twitter and wrote “Ouch!” He also linked to a Vogue article that referenced an infusion of new restaurants in the area that offer “a fusion of American comfort food with an Indian twist.” As you can see below, Booker wasn’t too angry over the snub, writing that he still loves Kaling. Kaling, who portrays an obstetrician on the sitcom and who rose to fame on The Office, took note of Booker’s flirtation and responded as follows: “Senator, if Mindy Lahiri shades it, it means we know it’s cool. Thanks for the [love]. It’s mutual!” From there, BOOKER ASKED KALING OUT ON A DATE! “You are making my day!” gushed the 47-year old single senator, adding: “Thanks for the clarification. And If the [love] is really mutual… Come have dinner with me in Newark?” Clearly smitten, Kaling said yes, saying she had to go find the “train schedule” so she could make her way from New York City to New Jersey. Adding to the incredibleness of this entire exchange, the official Twitter account for the train that takes folks from The Big Apple to its neighboring state (known as the PATH train) proceeded to get involved: “PATH train is awesome when you are Jersey bound,” Booker Tweeted to Kaling. “But you are @Lyft worthy! I will send one to you for the door to door.” There’s nothing about this story that isn’t completely awesome and amazing. Tragically, we’re left hanging at the moment because Kaling has not responded to Booker’s Lyft offer. But she has to accept, right? Booker is considered a strong candidate to run for President in 2020. And with Donald Trump’s approval ratings at historically low levels, you would think the Democratic nominee ought to have a real shot at winning the White House in a few years. This means there’s a chance that Mindy Kaling could be First Lady. A good chance? Probably not. But there really is a chance. And that’s a lot more than we could have said about the situation just a few hours ago.
