Oh, that crazy Kanye West. This is what folks used to say when the rapper uttered something outlandish. But after Kanye was hospitalized for an apparent mental breakdown , now folks are instead saying: Oh. That poor Kanye West is crazy. Should we have seen this breakdown coming? Perhaps, if we more closely examined some of West's past quotes… 1. We All Make Mistakes Kanye has claimed that he’s learned from his many mistakes, but then he kept right on making them. 2. I’m Not Perfect At least he’s been self-aware about his flaws. Maybe Kanye himself saw this coming. 3. I Will Change the Entire World He has changed the focus of the gossip world to a discussion about his mental state. Does that count? 4. Reading is Not Fundamental It wouldn’t hurt to pick up a book sometimes, man. 5. Music Trumps Slavery Yeah. See. His priorities have always been a tad out of order. 6. Be Proud! This is not anything Kanye ever should have bragged about. The guy’s mind has been warped for awhile it seems. View Slideshow
Melania Trump has clearly learned a lot from her husband. The impending First Lady just used the threat of a lawsuit to get an everyday citizen to grovel at her feet, while also do her exact bidding. In this case, however, we can’t really hold anything against Melania. She was just defending her son, after all. Allow us to explain… Early last week, a YouTube user named James Hunter shared a seven-minute video of Barron Trump on the campaign trail with his father. The footage featured the 10-year old acting restless in a chair, clapping without having his hands touch and exhibiting other signs on the spectrum of Autisim. This is what Hunter wondered and alleged, that is. The video then went mainstream after Donald Trump rival Rosie O’Donnell linked to it on her Twitter account, asking followers whether Barron was actually Autistic. This created quite an uproar, although Rosie later tried to explain that her own daughter is Autistic and she was simply saying that Barron’s diagnosis might help bring attention to this disease. O’Donnell didn’t hide her disdain for the President-Elect, but said she has no “ill will” toward members of his family. But she still helped the video go viral, which prompted Melania Trump to say she would sue Hunter if he did not remove it from the Internet. Via a statement through her lawyer, Melania also plainly said that Barron Trump is NOT Autistic. On Tuesday, not only did Hunter obey Melania’s instruction that he take down the video, but he also offered a very public and heartfelt Mea Culpa. He even put it on YouTube. The video is titled “My Apology To Melania and Barron Trump” and it is comprised of the following words: “On November 11, 2016, I posted a YouTube video titled: ‘Is Barron Trump Autistic #StopTheBullying.’ “n the video, I suggested Barron Trump might suffer from autism. This is in fact, 100 percent false. “It was incredibly irresponsible of me to diagnose Barron Trump using a selection of misleading videos. Many of the videos I used showed Barron Trump behaving like any normal kid would at 3 a.m. “I falsely correlated him trying to stay awake and occasionally doing quirky things, with him suffering from autism. This was incredibly foolish of me.” You can watch the apologetic video here: Barron Trump Video Creator Issues Apology Hunter continues in it: “My video was originally intended as an anti-bullying video, as I myself suffer from autism and wanted to educate people. Unfortunately, I completely misdiagnosed a person and ended up making a video that was false, defamatory and malicious. “I retract every single statement I made in that horrendous video, and want to sincerely apologize to the Trump family, especially to Melania and Barron Trump. “I can understand if you might not want to accept my apology, but please know I didn’t mean to hurt anyone with my video. “I wish your family nothing but good luck, safety, and love, as you prepare to become the next First Family of the United States.” Sounds pretty darn sincere, doesn’t it? We’re guessing no lawsuit will be filed and this will be the end of this scandal. We can all now return to wondering what the heck Barron’s father will Tweet next… View Slideshow: Donald Trump on 60 Minutes: 13 Major Revelations
Who will go home on The Voice this week? The results are in, and as always, had the potential to go down to the wire and shock viewers. Downloads of The Voice Top 10 performances , which are one component of The Voice results along with online voting, showed a trend: Two groups, contenders and pretenders, emerged. Six of the top 10 singers ranked in the top 14 spots in the iTunes singles chart after last night’s efforts. Four … did not. By a long shot. It was likely, then, that perhaps all three singers in jeopardy tonight – when TWO would go home – would come from that latter group. Was that how it played out? Or would Josh Gallagher, Austin Allsup, Aaron Gibson and Courtney Harrell gain surprising entry into the semis? Let’s break it down in this week’s Voice results ! Before we got to the results, let’s just take a moment to thank the producers for getting Dolly Parton on board for tonight’s live extravaganza. We got TWO performances out of her and she really showed some of the other competitors just how high the bar was for success. I mean, at this stage of the game, there should be a ten acts who can sing flawlessly, but sadly, that’s not what’s going on with the show. We have people like Courtney Harrell who are struggling and should have been eliminated weeks ago. It sucks for the acts that genuinely can sing their way out of anything. Now to the results… Assigned Safety (In chronological order) Brendan Fletcher (Team Adam) Sundance Head (Team Blake) Christian Cuevas (Team Alicia) Ali Caldwell (Team Miley) Billy Gilman (Team Adam) Wé McDonald (Team Alicia) Josh Gallagher (Team Adam) That left Courtney Harrell, Austin Allsup and Aaron Gibson in the bottom three. As you can probably expect, Courtney had her work cut out for her going against both Austin and Aaron. It was almost like she gave up before she even got to work on the stage with her song to save her. Austin and Aaron were both great, so it sucked that both of them were in danger. When it was all said and done, Aaron advanced to the Final 8. Courtney Harrell and Austin Allsup were eliminated from the competition. What did you think of the elimination? Sound off below!
Here's even more ” fingers in the booty-ass bitch ” business for you. Amber Rose reportedly mocked Kim Kardashian's ugly situation, all while Kanye West is hospitalized , prompting everybody and their mothers to think that the feud between her and Kim is back on in full-force. Amber shared the video below, announcing that she was taking off from social media for the remainder of the year, and would return after 2016 ended … not unlike Kim's self-imposed hiatus. Fans even pointed out that Amber went bare-faced like her nemesis did back when she was posting on social media. Things that make you go “Hmm …” Kim and Amber have a long track record of being crazy at one another, and it all started over — you guessed it! — Kanye West. If you recall, Rose and West dated long before Kim Kardashian came into play, and after the two broke up, there was a lot of contention. Amber and Kanye broke up in 2010, and Amber moved to jumpoff, Wiz Khalifa, while Kanye moved onto Kardashian. Both couples had babies in 2013 — Kim and Kanye had North, and Amber and Wiz had Sebastian — and that's when things started to get real ugly. This was around the time that Tyga and Kylie started hooking up, and the bad blood between Kylie and Blac Chyna — who's Amber's BFF — began boiling. After Amber called Tyga a cradle-robber, essentially, Khloe Kardashian slammed Amber and told her not to throw rocks, 'cause glass houses and all that. Amber then called Kim a whore (?) and the rest is history. That being said, if Amber is dragging Kim … it's petty beyond belief. Especially since the two were said to have mended fences by sharing a photo taken together which Kim captioned, “Tea anyone?” What tangled webs they weave. Check out the video — is Amber reigniting the feud at a really, really bad time?
Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta may not return with new episodes for several months. But at least one cast member from this VH1 reality show doesn’t need the cameras to be rolling in order to bring home some drama. Isn’t that right, Jessica Dime? According to a random celebrity gossip site named Fameolous, the reality star and popular Instagram presence is at the center of a new sex tape. It was released by an equally random rapper named Lody Lucci as some kind of revenge against Dime supposedly finding romance with former NBA player Shawne Williams. We can’t show you any of the Jessica Dime sex tape footage here because it is EXTREMELY not safe for work (or even some homes), … but one of the opening shots from the footage features a woman with a lower back tattoo that looks just like the one on Dime’s body. Why did Lucci leak this X-Rated video? Insiders claim that he and Dime were a romantic item; until, that is, Williams came into the picture. So it’s a classic case of Boy Meets Girl; Boy Falls for Girl; Girl Cheats on Boy with a 6’9″ NBA Journeyman; Boy Gets Payback by Unveiling Sex Tape of Girl. We cannot confirm that Lucci is the man seemingly sticking it to Dime in the sex tape, but it’s very safe to assume that he and Jessica made the home video together. And Dime isn’t really denying it, either. Which is not to say she’s bothered by the existence of the sex tape. Or by the rumors that a sex tape of her and Lucci is out there, possibly on the verge of hitting the open market. Consider her response on Twitter when asked about it: It’s (mostly) true. We do all have sex. It’s also (mostly) true that nigg… nevermind. As for her relationship with Williams? Is she worried that footage of her taking it from another man might put a damper on this relatively new and intense romance? Nope! Not one bit! We should all have this much confidence, shouldn’t we? In both ourselves and in our relationships? Love & Hip Hop Atlanta Season 6 is currently in production. It is expected to air in the spring of 2017. Somewhere, producers are high-fiving over some pretty rich material. It’s almost as if they may have scripted it this way, huh? Meanwhile, if Jessica Dime is starring in a new sex tape, you can take a look below at the naked company she’ll be joining… View Slideshow: 23 Celebrities Who Are Also Amateur Porn Stars
Shannen Doherty has started the next phase of her cancer treatment. And she understandable very scared about it. The former Beverly Hills, 90210 actress was diagnosed with breast cancer in February of 2015 and has since been as open as possible about her journey and her struggle. The latest part of that journey and struggle? Radiation treatment. According to an Instagram photo and message on Monday, Doherty has kicked off this step of her hopeful recovery. “First day of radiation treatment,” Doherty wrote as a caption to the image above. She added: “I look like I’m about to make a run for it which is accurate. Radiation is frightening to me. Something about not being able to see the laser, see the treatment and having this machine moving around you just scares me. I’m sure I’ll get used to it but right now…. I hate it.” She included the hashtags, “#radiation, #radiationmondaysucks and #stillfightinglikeagirl with her moving post. It took a few months for Doherty to reveal her diagnosis to the world. She was forced to go public in August 2015 after she filed a lawsuit against her former management firm and business manager, who she alleges failed to pay her health insurance premiums. As a result of this issue, Doherty said she wasn’t able visit doctors for a year, which meant her breast cancer went undetected. Which greatly lowered her risk of survival. But Doherty is still here and is determined to make the most of her life. She flew down to Mexico with her husband last month in order to celebrate their five-year anniversary , sharing photos from the trip and writing a tribute to Kurt Iswarienko in the process. “Life has thrown us some huge curves and we have faced them together with strength, love, passion and a desire to stand next to one another thru it all,” Doherty said at the time on social media. As she fights to defeat this awful disease, she is making an effort in general to remember what’s important. For example, as you can see above, she still voted in the Presidential election. She also wrote an emotional message to her mom in August. “Sometimes there’s nothing like a mothers love to help get you thru,” the star captioned a black-and-white photo of herself in her mother’s embrace. “Thank you mom for always being there and being so strong for me. I love you.” In August, Doherty revealed that the breast cancer had spread to her lymph nodes and that she would undergo chemotherapy, followed by the radiation that began this week. We truly cannot imagine what she is going through. “I think what’s beautiful and hard and interesting about cancer is that it tears you down and builds you, and tears you down and builds you, and it remakes you so many different times,” Doherty said in an emotional interview with Chelsea Handler last month. “The person I thought I was supposed to be, or was going to be, or who I thought I was six months ago is now somebody completely different.” We pray that Shannen Doherty joins the list above of celebrities that have overcome this awful disease. We’re thinking of her.
James Kennedy seems hell-bent on beating out Farrah Abraham for the prestigious Worst Person on Reality Television prize. So many who watched last night's episode of Vanderpump Rules were surprised to learn that James has a girlfriend, and unlike his ex, Kristen Doute, Raquel Leviss actually seems sane! Of course, if they're still together, that means Raquel watched an hour of television in which James derided Kristen as a “special needs child,” lied about cheating with a co-worker, called said co-worker a whore, and then got fired for drunkenly harassing a different co-worker. So if she's sticking around, she may not be as sane as she seemed. Watch Vanderpump Rules online to remind yourself of just how badly James sucks, and check out the pics below to remind yourself of just how much better Raquel can do: 1. Raquel Leviss with James Kennedy Why is Raquel Leviss with James Kennedy? Fame and money, most likely. It can’t be for his personality or DJ skills. 2. Raquel Leviss Pageant Photo Raquel says it’s her dream to become Miss California. We can’t help but think that publicly linking herself with an angry drunken misogynist probably won’t help with that. 3. James Kennedy & Raquel Leviss Image James trying to look outdoorsy. He’s not pulling it off. 4. Raquel Leviss, James Kennedy on the Red Carpet Raquel and James at some sort of red carpet event. Because apparently James gets invited to red carpet events. 5.

Yes, it seems it is impossible for him to wipe that douche-look off his face. View Slideshow
Shortly after Amber Heard filed for divorce from Johnny Depp , it became clear that the situation would be much uglier than your typical celebrity split. Depp was accused of domestic violence , and Heard’s camp painted a picture of the beloved actor as a drunken abusive monster. As is often the case in high-profile celebrity breakups, Heard was accused of going after Depp’s bank account. She responded to those accusations in deft fashion by promising to donate her divorce settlement to two charities: the ACLU and Los Angeles Children’s Hospital. The move was interpreted by many as a middle finger to both Depp and his supporters, Heard’s way of deflecting criticism and sending a clear, unmistakable message that she wasn’t in this for the money. There were even reports that Heard was broke and essentially homeless as a result of her pledge, but remained unwavering in her intentions. Now, however, TMZ is reporting that more than three months after the divorce was settled, neither charity has received the $7 million that Heard was awarded. The site claims that each organization did receive an initial installment of $200,000, but that money was apparently sent to them directly by Depp, not Heard. After Heard declared her plan to donate her settlement, Depp’s lawyers stated that the actor would cut out the middle man by issuing checks directly to the Children’s Hospital and the ACLU. Heard was reportedly furious, as she not only felt that the move was Depp’s way of making himself out to be the good guy, she also saw it as an effort to score a massive tax write off. Her attorneys put the kibosh on Depp’s plan to donate the cash himself, and neither organization has seen a dime in the months since. It remains unclear, however, if the money dried up because it’s in Amber’s possession, or because it’s tied up in the appeals process. Heard’s lawyers claim the couple has not signed settlement deal, but that they’re expected to do so this week. After months of PR nightmares, we’re sure they’ll be signing some iron-clad non-disclosure agreements, as well, so we may never find out exactly how this plays out. But whatever the case, two worthy organizations are about to receive two very large checks. View Slideshow: Johnny Depp Domestic Abuse Allegations: Stars React
Just as Teen Mom OG airs its finale tonight, Teen Mom 2 is almost back and we cannot wait to see what happens next for the second fab four. Based on the lack of information about the next season, it looked like we could be in for a long wait before its return, but the premiere is January 2! What can fans of the MTV smash look forward to the day after New Year's for Kailyn Lowry, Jenelle Evans, Leah Messer and Chelsea Houska? In the trailer (below), we get our first look at major events we've heard about over the past couple of months online and on social media. Perhaps the most notable milestone of them all? Chelsea Houska confirms to her family that she's pregnant in a heartwarming scene. It's the news we've already known for quite some time – Chelsea and Cole De Boer are expecting a boy – but it's special just the same. Jenelle Evans' mother, meanwhile, less than impressed about the way she found out about her daughter's latest pregnancy (her third). “You do not want to give me my son back so I do not want to film with you ever again in my f–king life,” she screamed at her mother. “If I get custody then you will have limited visitation!” Barbara responds, later learning of Jenelle's pregnancy via a police report. Touching. Elsewhere, Javi Marroquin delivers an epic diss to his estranged wife Kailyn Lowry, telling the star, “You never think about anyone else.” “You don’t think about me, you don’t think about your two boys. You’re going to open your legs to some guy that’s not a big f–king deal?” Yikes. Finally, Leah Messer seems to be improving after her rehab stint for stress and depression, but Ali‘s medical issues are devastating. “Knowing there is something wrong with this baby that I love so much,” she said of her daughter, who suffers from muscular dystrophy. Needless to say, we'll have plenty of reasons to watch Teen Mom 2 online or on television come 2017 based on this teaser …
John Mayer has scarcely been heard from in 2016. He hasn’t released a new album. He hasn’t played many live shows. He’s scarcely even dated around, with the exception of that rumored Demi Lovato hookup . But now we know why Mayer has been so quiet: He’s been busy catching up on television! Over the weekend, Mayer admitted that he’s already obsessed with This Is Us, the tear-jerking new NBC drama that has caused Kleenex sales to sky-rocket around the nation. “Just saw the first episode of This is Us and I’m hooked. Cryin’ and hooked,” Mayer wrote on Twitter. Unashamed and out in the open about his affection for the freshman series, the artist added: “Not even wiping away tears for the next episodes. Just gonna let the first ones create tracks for a more even, efficient flow.” Those who watch This Is Us online each week can likely agree that this is a good move. If anything, Mayer will cry even harder during episode two… and then even harder than that during episode three… and so on and so forth. Mayer’s fandom didn’t take long to reach Mandy Moore, who plays 1950s housewife Rebecca Pearson on the popular series. She took note of the singer’s Tweets and responded as follows: “Glad you’re digging it, @JohnMayer,” she wrote back. But that wasn’t enough for Mayer. He needed everyone to understand just how much he is digging This Is Us. Heck, he needs everyone to understand that he may need to invent a new word in order to underscore his feelings about the drama. “Beyond dig, @TheMandyMoore. I’m about to attempt one of the most emotionally reckless stunts ever: watching an episode ON AN AIRPLANE,” he Tweeted. HA! We’ve never liked John Mayer more. This Is Us centers around Moore, her TV husband (played by Milo Ventimiglia) and their three children. It takes viewers into the lives of numerous characters even jumps across numerous decades, while also featuring Sterling K. Brown and Justin Hartley in key roles. Oh, and it WILL make you cry. It just will. Click on the episode below to better understand why: Watch This Is Us Season 1 Episode 8 Online
