Nicki Minaj & Meek Mill: REAL Reason For Breakup Revealed?!

Posted on January 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Last week, we learned that Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill had broken up when Nicki confirmed her “newly single” status on social media. The reasons for the split were not immediately clear, but not surprisingly, rumors that Meek got caught cheating began to circulate on social media. Several supposed insiders seemed so confident that at one point, it seemed like it was only a matter of time before Meek’s side-chick emerged to tell her side of the story. Now, however, TMZ is claiming to have unearthed the real reason that Nicki and Meek called it quits , and amazingly, it seems it might not have anything to do with infidelity. Apparently, Nicki, Meek, and a bunch of their friends jetted off to Turks and Caicos for her birthday weekend last month. Sources say the trip was a disaster from the start, with Meek basically ignoring Nicki and partying with his entourage non-stop. The story goes: Nicki blew up at Meek in front of his crew, and rather than allow himself to be semi-publicly disrespected, he headed to the airport and flew home several days ahead of schedule/ Nicki basically called his bluff and informed them after he landed that the relationship was over. A believable series of events and further evidence that stars are just like us – they break up for dumb reasons, too. But that doesn’t mean the question of Meek’s possible infidelity has entirely been answered. There are still those who believe that the real reason behind Nicki and Meek’s feud was her persistent suspicion that he’d been sleeping around on her. Meek is suspected of getting down with a woman named  Sonye Rasool. A friend of Rasool’s tells TMZ that Sonye hooked up with Meek years before he met Nicki, but denies that she was ever his cheating partner. The site reports that Rasool is not taking the allegations lying down, and that she’s planning to file defamation suits against several media outlets. Whatever the case, Nicki and Meek ‘shippers have already started talking about the possibility of a reconciliation. Many feel that the Turks and Caicos story indicates that Nicki and Meek broke up over something small, which means they could easily patch things up. Sounds like Safaree Samuels better get in there fast! View Slideshow: 19 Nicki Minaj Fun Facts!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 9 Episode 9 Recap: Charl-Lotta Drama

Posted on January 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Matt Jordan is turning out to be one of the most horrid people on reality TV. Yes, we’d even rank him as worse than the likes of Spencer Pratt.  We kicked off The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 9 Episode 9 with Kenya Moore getting Cynthia Bailey up to speed on what had been going on with Matt.  All of this chatter was going on while the pair took their dogs to the groomers. Kenya was quick to point out that her father had been instrumental in mediating the drama between her and Matt.  “He wants us to take a break,” Kenya explained. “He wants Matt to do some therapy, work on himself, and he wants me to do the same.” Now, we’re not going out there and saying that Kenya is one of the nicest women, but she certainly does not deserve to be treated the way Matt has treated her.  The ladies switched gears to a new drama: Peter Thomas called Kenya and asked her to host the opening of his new club in Charlotte.  If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online , you will already know that Peter is Cynthia’s soon-to-be-ex-husband. Now, you could tell she was disappointed that he was going to these measures to piss her off, but she was adamant that she was not annoyed with Kenya.  Kenya then came to the conclusion that it would be a good idea for Cynthia to go with her and be her special guest. She agreed.  Peter then hit up Todd Tucker to invite him to the lavish bash, while dropping the bomb that he had also invited Matt. Hey, what could go wrong when you invite the likes of Matt Jordan to a party? Meanwhile, Kandi Burruss took a whole lot of issue with a former employee who was calling her out on social media for being “fake.” Turns out, the dude was still working for her at certain events and she wasted no time in getting a hold of him at the next event.  When confronted, he claimed that he was not a fan of the way his departure was handled. He even went as far as claiming that she was not paying him enough.  Yeah, that explains why he wanted the permanent job back. Right? As you can probably expect, Kandi was less than impressed with the guy calling her out for stuff that just simply was not true.  “You can call me a bitch and you can call me an a–hole, but you cannot call me fake!” Something tells us he’s no longer on Kandi’s Christmas card list.  While Kandi seemed to think that was the end of it, Johnnie dropped by Phaedra’s office with the aim of filing a lawsuit against his former boss.  Johnnie claimed that he was getting a measly $500 a week with zero benefits and was working 80 hours a week. That’s a whole lot of work for not a lot of dough.  As much as Phaedra wanted to be the one to take the case, she was wise enough to know that the case was not in her area of expertise.  Sometime later, Kenya had a change of heart and asked Peter to cancel Matt’s plane ticket because she did not think it was a good idea for him to show up.  Matt took to social media to vent his frustration at the fiasco.  View Slideshow: 19 Real Housewives Who Only Lasted One Season “I just got done running through the terminal to catch a flight to go to the grand opening of Peter’s club in North Carolina, and guess who cancelled my ticket? Kenya Moore.” Kenya then read out some of the text messages Matt was sending her to a very shocked Cynthia. He was threatening her. Cynthia thought the best move was to get the cops involved.  When Kenya showed up at the event, Matt appeared. Maybe this show is more scripted than we give it credit for.  Matt made a beeline for Kenya’s car, but it was clear she did not want anything to do with him. When the driver tried to roll up the window, Matt punched him in the face.  After that, everyone seemed to agree that there was just no coming back from that outburst for the couple and Kenya was forced to think about the very real possibility that she and Matt just weren’t meant to be.  What do you think about it? Should Kenya cut her losses? Sound off below! View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast?

Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 7 Recap: Mariah Makes an Announcement

Posted on January 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The best thing about Sister Wives is when the family rallies round one of their own.  That’s exactly what happened on Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 7 , when Mariah stunned her family with a shocking announcement.  The whole family seemed to think she was going to reveal she was in a relationship with someone, but they did not expect her to tell them she was gay.  The family were quickly to give her the support she sought and it was pretty amazing. Mariah was quick to point out that it was far from an easy decision to come clean to her family.  Robyn understood that it must have taken a lot of courage to tell the family the truth because of them being a plural family. She and Janelle were quick to accept Mariah for who she was, but Meri and Kody had been completely blindsided.  You could tell they were trying to process the revelation their daughter had just revealed to them. Surprisingly, the thing that helped Kody make sense of it was that he had entertained the possibility of one of his own being gay before.  Kody let his daughter know that he would never like the thought of one of his children not being loved. It was then that he let Mariah know that he would love her no matter what.  Meri claimed that she was mostly upset because she did not even suspect it. She assumed her daughter was straight and would marry a man one day.  With Meri’s relationship with Mariah on thin ice, Robyn and Kody went to speak to Meri about her feelings because they did not want Meri to send mixed emotions Mariah’s way.  Meri decided it was best to choose the family vacation as the best time to talk to her daughter about everything. Meri was cautious about what she was going to say.  She feared that she made their relationship even more strained, but there was a slim chance of that. Their relationship was pretty much in tatters.  When Meri questioned how Mariah came to the conclusion she was gay, Mariah was quick to shut it down. Her reason? It was personal. Meri tried to relay that she was confused about her feelings to Mariah, but things got tense when she said the word “weird.” Mariah took this personally and thought her mother was calling her weird, but she really was not. There was something that seemed odd about the scene because Meri kept randomly laughing.  This irked Mariah even more, who felt her mother was making fun of her. When Meri tried to bring up being in Mariah’s life more, Mariah shut it down. She was not ready to let her mother back in.  Mariah did let her mother know that her time away from the family helped her come to terms with her feelings, so that’s why she enjoyed the independence.  Later, Meri continued to try and get all the attention on her when the family went out for dinner. After a multitude of questions about Mariah’s sexuality, she revealed that she initially came out to her brother Logan.  Meri sobbed that she wanted it to be her. Is this woman trying to cry the family a river, or something? If she really wanted to make amends with Mariah, she should just accept it and move on.  View Slideshow: 18 Reality TV Show Families That Make Us Want to Vomit Elsewhere, Christine was still trying to find out whether Tony was the right man for Mykelti and she got her confirmation by watching the way they were acting with one another on the vacation.  What do you think of all the drama?

Mariah Carey: I Was Foiled on New Year’s Eve!

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

2016 was an awful, terrible year, full of loss and sadness and disappointment. And so it only made sense that on the last day of the year, right before the miserable thing finally died, Mariah Carey gave what could have been the worst performance of her career . Yes, Mariah, the diva songbird of a generation, one of the most talented ladies in the game, absolutely butchered her performance on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. There was clearly a big issue with her earpiece, and with the audio, and with … well, the whole thing was a big mess . And now, in a lengthy message she recorded and shared on Twitter, she's speaking out about what went down. According to Mariah, the problem was that she and her people were “put into the hands of a production team with technical issues who chose to capitalize on circumstances beyond our control.” She says that it's “not practical for a singer to sing live” in the conditions in Times Square that night, “especially when their ear monitors weren't working at all.” Alas, Mariah believes that “They foiled me. This it turned into an opportunity to humiliate me.” The poor diva adds that her “feelings are hurt” over the whole ordeal , and that she's planning on taking some time for herself before she gets onstage again. Do you feel sorry for Mariah, or did she have it coming? Check out her full message in the clip below:

Kanye West Makes Up with Jay Z and Beyonce — Well, Almost

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

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, like most living things, didn’t have a great time last year. Kim had what she felt was a near-death experience when she was robbed in Paris, and Kanye had that nervous breakdown. He was hospitalized for over a week while doctors straightened out his meds and got him stabilized, but when he got back out, he had a meeting with Donald Trump , so … But before Kanye had his breakdown, he was acting mighty strangely. He first announced his allegiance to Trump, and then, in a shocking turn of events, he slammed his former bestie, Jay Z , in some seriously bizarre rants during his Saint Pablo tour. He even had the gall to go after the closest thing America has to a queen: Beyonce. About Jay Z, he expressed some disappointment because he thought that Jay had chosen the politics of the music business over the creativity and art of it. But he also got personal, crying out “I can’t take this sh-t, bro!” He said that his kids have never even played with Blue Ivy, and that Jay never checked up on him after Kim’s robbery. “Don’t call me, after the robbery, and say ‘How you feeling?'” he said. “You wanna know how I’m feeling?” “Come by the house. Bring the kids by the house like we brothers.” As for Beyonce, he was upset with her because he’d heard that she’d told MTV that she wouldn’t perform at the VMAs unless she won the Video of the Year award, an award that he was also nominated for. “Now, don’t go trying to diss Beyonce,” he said. “She is great.” “… But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win.” He then took the opportunity to bring Jay Z back into things, because, wouldn’t you know it, Jay never called him after the last rant. “Jay Z, call me, bruh,” he begged. “You still ain’t called me. Jay Z, call me.” In a turn for the bizarre, he even said “Jay Z, I know you got killers, please don’t send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man.” That last rant happened in November, just a couple of days before he was hospitalized. And surprisingly enough, it looks like in the time since, Jay Z finally reached out to him. Kanye and Kim were spotted arriving at Blue Ivy’s fifth birthday party yesterday at the Carter residence — so that’s a good sign, right? Oddly enough, though it was a child’s birthday party, they didn’t bring their own children. There’s a good chance that Kim doesn’t feel comfortable enough going on public outings like this with her kids, but there’s also a good chance that things between Kimye and Jay and Bey aren’t completely back to good yet. What a world, right? View Slideshow: 13 Best Kanye West Rants of All Time. OF ALL TIME!!!

David Bowie: New Music Video Released on What Would Have Been His 70th Birthday

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

David Bowie died last year on January 10th after battling liver cancer. And his loss hurt so, so bad. He's an absolute legend, he's always been one of the best of the best — no one can touch him, and no one should even try to. As his parting gift, he left us one of the best albums of his whole career, Blackstar. And oh, what an album it was … But now, on the day he would have celebrated his 70th birthday and just a few days ahead of the first anniversary of his death, we have a little surprise gift. Bowie's people released a new EP today called No Plan. It's not exactly brand new — it was available last month with the deluxe edition of the soundtrack to his Broadway musical, Lazarus — but it's amazing all the same. And in addition to the EP, we even have a music video for “No Plan.” It's got possible alien activity, it's got rocket ships, it's got weirdness … everything Bowie would have wanted. It's also got his beautiful, beautiful voice, which is obviously nothing to shake a stick at. Check out the music video and the new song in all its spectacular glory below:

Kailyn Lowry: New Rumors Claim She Secretly Had an Abortion While Married to Javi Marroquin!

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

Just when you thought you knew all there was to know about Kailyn Lowry, Javi Marroquin, and their super messy divorce … Don’t be foolish, y’all. We don’t know the half of it. Between all the things that she’s said and all the things that he’s said, there are approximately a zillion things that went wrong in their marriage. Maybe he cheated, maybe she cheated, maybe they both cheated. Maybe she got that plastic surgery and all that silicone went to her head, or maybe they just grew apart. Or maybe, just maybe, Kailyn’s tragic miscarriage played a large part in the destruction of their relationship. The miscarriage happened in late 2015, and they’ve both been open and honest about how hard it was on them on Teen Mom 2 and in subsequent interviews and, as always, social media posts. While Kailyn was very understandably heartbroken about what happened, Javi said that he felt like he “needed someone to blame,” and apparently that person was Kailyn . “That was part of the reason why me and you were fighting so much right after the miscarriage,” he told her on the show. “I needed to blame somebody, and I was taking it out on you.” Then, in an interview back in September, Javi said that “I wasn’t there as a husband, as a father, as someone she could count on to cry on my shoulder.” “She always says I wasn’t there. I apologize to her all the time. I could see where she was coming from.” He added that “I’ve never experienced that. I was just super excited for the baby and all that happened so it was rough for me.” It sounds like such a hard time, right? But according to a new theory that some monster posed on Twitter, that may not have been exactly how things went down. Apparently, another scenario could have been that Kailyn was cheating on Javi with someone, she got pregnant, panicked, then had an abortion so Javi wouldn’t find out, and she lied and said that the abortion was a miscarriage. How horrible, right? Not to mention improbable. It sounds like this random jackass isn’t too clear on how very, very different abortions and miscarriages are. But hey, if you were thinking about getting outraged on Kailyn’s behalf, don’t worry — she’s got it covered. “Ok, that’s enough,” she responded. “You’re taking this too far. That’s so hurtful and messed up.” “That is honestly the worst thing I’ve ever read about myself. So hurtful and untrue…. what a theory.” When some of her followers asked her why she even bothered to respond to such a reprehensible troll, she answered “Because that’s something so disgusting to say, it’s not like someone said I wore purple instead of pink.” “And people are believing that.” “Most of the time I don’t say sh-t,” she added. “But this morning was some serious sh-t that just isn’t ok.” And she’s right — it isn’t OK, not even a little bit. It’s fun to speculate about the lives of celebrities, especially dramatic reality stars like the Teen Moms. But there’s a line. And to say that this girl lied about having a miscarriage to cover up an abortion to terminate a pregnancy that came about because of an affair? Yeah, that’s too far.

Golden Globes 2017: Who Should Win?

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

The 74th annual Golden Globe Awards will broadcast by NBC Sunday, January 8. There are a lot of different awards up for grabs, but who will emerge victorious in the race for the most awards? We have some predictions for you.  Scroll down to find out who we think should win.  1. Drama Series Despite what some may say, there is still no other show on TV quite like Game of Thrones. The sheer scale and writing is on another level from the other shows in the category. With some tweaks, Westworld could get there. This Is Us will win because it’s the only show on the list about family values, but Game of Thrones should win. 2. Drama Series – Actor Rami Malek is without a doubt the best actor in this category. Despite a creative nosedive for Mr. Robot in Season 2, Rami Malek turned in an other outstanding performance as Elliot Alderson. Then again, Matthew Rhys has been turning in solid performances on The Americans for four seasons. Rhys will eke out the win over the others in the category, but Malek should win. 3. Drama Series – Actress Westworld shocked us all with a solid first season that made us question the world around us. Part of that was Evan Rachel Wood’s convincing portrayal of Dolores. Considering the acclaim the series has acieved – particularly for Wood’s performance, she should and will win it. 4. Comedy or Musical Series Donald Glover’s Atlanta has been a hit with critics and viewers. It should and will secure the win over Veep and Mozart in the Jungle. 5. Comedy or Musical – Actress Sarah Jessica Parker will do battle with the likes of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Gina Rodriguez and Rachel Bloom. There’s no denying that she deserves the win. After years away from a hit show, her acting chops are still there. She should and will win. 6. Comedy or Musical – Actor The writing on Atlanta was just the tip of the iceberg. Donald Glover’s performance as Earnest Marks struck a chord with viewers. So much so that he should and will take the win over Nick Nolte, Jefrey Tambor, Anthony Anderson and Gael Garcia Bernal.

Amy Duggar: Does She Have a History of Animal and Domestic Abuse?!

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

Remember when Amy Duggar was the most likable of all the Duggars? She's always been so much more relatable than her other famous family members — since she wasn't raised like Josh, Jessa, Jill, and the rest of those 19 kids, she's always been a breath of fresh Duggar air. Or at least, that's how things used to be. Since Amy brought her husband, Dillon King, on Marriage Boot Camp to discuss their problems and share their deepest, darkest secrets , everything has changed in the worst way. Thankfully, we know now that the scary incident she shared in the trailer for the show, the one where a man picked her up by her throat and lifted her up to the ceiling, didn't have anything to do with her husband . But that doesn't mean there's never been any violence in their home. In this new clip from Marriage Boot Camp, Amy and Dillon discuss a pretty awful story about how he once picked up their kitten and dropped the poor animal on its jaw. He tries to play it off like an accident, but there's a reason cats are known for always landing on all fours — and that's because they do. Also in the clip, it's revealed that Amy punched Dillon after he did whatever he did to the cat. And Amy's excuse for punching her husband? “You had to be there.” Watch the questionable clip below:

Brandi Glanville: Lisa Rinna is a Bald Anorexic!

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

It’s been almost two years since Brandi Glanville was fired from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills . But that doesn’t mean she’s done delivering drama or going off on her former castmates.  Far from it, in fact. This week, it seems Brandi’s target of choice is Lisa Rinna. The cause of her latest feud isn’t entirely clear, but it probably has something to do with the fact that Rinna referred to Glanville as a bully on this week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills . Not long after the episode aired, Brandi let Lisa have it (and arguably proved her right) with a series of scathing tweets: “I do not think of u or refer to u & trust me when I leave this world I will be known for more than an eating disorder & a BAD wig,” Brandi wrote. “Get some new material stop using mine!!! Have a wonderful day!” Unnecessarily harsh? Absolutely. But that’s also some top-notch roasting. Brandi skipped over the easy target ( Rinna’s lips ) and went straight for the less obvious burns. Does Rinna really wear a wig? Probably not, but you can bet we’ll be watching for it on RHOBH every damn week now. The key is that Brandi delivered her disses with the authority of an insider. She and Rinna were on the show together in Season 5, so when one of them makes a claim we’ve never heard before about the other, it has more credence than when some random troll talks smack. To be clear: it’s not even remotely cool of Brandi to mock Rinna for having an eating disorder (whether or not she actually has one is immaterial in this case). We’re just giving her credit for her masterful ability to remain in the spotlight. Unfortunately for Brandi, it seems Lisa saw this for what it was. She has yet to reply to Glanville’s online taunts, probably because she knows doing so would only keep this story in the gossip blogs. Lisa knows not responding is the greatest diss of all, so you can bet she’ll continue to do exactly that. What you have here is two professionals offering a master’s class in shade-throwing. Take notes, kids.
