Megan Thee Stallion proved that she’s the only universally beloved person left in the world by linking up with Nicki Minaj for the “Hot Girl Summer” anthem America deserves. The entire song is an ode to twerking, women and living your best life. The result? An internet-wide twerkstravaganza of wigs been tossed, edges deteriorated and donks high in the sky. The song has destroyed Twitter and we are here for it. So you know what that means? Peep the wildest, dopest, hilarious reactions to the anthem. https://twitter.com/_chriswolfe/status/1159694058907848705?s=20
Taylor Swift recently concluded her feud with Katy Perry in very memorable fashion: The latter dressed as a hamburger and appeared in the former's latest music video. And yet while this long-lasting hatchet was buried over the summer, we somehow doubt Kim Kardashian will be donning any food-themed attire for any Taylor Swift project int he near future. Why not? Because these two are STILL going at it! Three years after their rivalry kicked off, Swift spoke to Vogue magazine and once again rehashed what happened and how it made her feel, trying to once again come out on top of Kim as though she were Ray J or something. Take a deep breath and scroll down for the latest… 1. Can You Recap the Basis for This Feud Again? Yes: Way back in July of 2016, Kardashian posted Snapchat videos of Swift talking with Kanye West about his song “Famous,” which featured the lyrics: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous.” 2. So What? Well, Swift had previously slammed Kanye for this song, making it sound as if she had no idea she would be referenced in such a negative manner. 3. She Was Therefore Exposed? Yes, exactly. The conversation between Kanye and Swift that Kim made public featured Taylor being told about West’s lyrics and giving her approval. 4. Take THIS! Swift fired back at Kimye on Instagram three years back, saying memorably on her page: “I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009.” (That’s a reference to when Kanye interruped her speech at the MTV VMAs.) 5. She’s a Cold-Hearted Snake Kim proceeded to trash Swift as a snake on multiple occasions. 6. Did This Have an Effect on Swift’s Career? We’re pretty sure it did. Taylor mostly disappeared from the spotlight for around a year and her latest album has not sold nearly as well as her past albums. View Slideshow
We probably don’t need to tell you that Scientology is bizarrely popular in Hollywood — or that it doesn’t have the greatest reputation in the rest of the world. The reasons for this are as plentiful and insane as the Church’s millions of followers: We suppose it’s not surprising that a religion cooked up by a sci-fi writer and centered around space aliens and extreme narcissism would sell like hotcakes in Tinsel Town but wouldn’t necessarily play in Peoria. Still, as much as a cult that encourages its members to achieve success by battling the Martians in their soul seems tailor-made for actors and other film industry insiders, we’re always amazed by just how many celebs have fallen victim to Scientology’s bonkers claims. Take Brad Pitt, for example. These days, despite some rough patches in his personal life , Pitt remains so inarguably the epitome of cool that his dialogue in the Once Upon a Time In … Hollywood script probably consisted of nothing but the words “Brad says some cool Brad Pitt stuff.” But that wasn’t always the case. There was a time when Brad was just a young Missouran trying to make it in Hollywood and running into the same stumbling blocks as any young thespian. And it was during those early days of failed auditions and thwarted ambitions that the opportunistic bottomfeeders who operate the CoS almost got their hooks in young Mr. Pitt. Former Scientologist Sam Domingo — who was once daughter-in-law to famed opera singer Placido Domingo — recently spoke with Radar Online for a series of interviews in which she shares her most shocking memories from her 22 years as a member of the CoS. Domingo claims that in the early ’90s, Pitt and then-girlfriend Juliette Lewis were recruited for by the Church, but had the good sense to flee in the midst of a grueling “detoxification” program. “Brad was recruited in the 1990s during the time he and Juliette Lewis did a movie together,” Domingo says. “That’s when he was put on the purification rundown.” She described the “rundown” as “a program where they basically load you up with vitamins and you sit in the sauna and sweat for five hours a day.” “At least four kids have died on these programs,” Domingo claims. “Brad was doing the same one. He was in the sweat box.” But unlike Tom Cruise, who remains 100 percent in bed with these loonies , Brad apparently knows a fishy scene when he sees one. “He left! They weren’t able to keep Brad,” Domingo says. Thankfully, Pitt escaped and was able to portray one half of 2019’s most unforgettable onscreen duo (We’re talking, of course, about Cliff Boote and his attack dog, Brandy.), but Brad’s isn’t the only happy ending here. Juliette Lewis has enjoyed quite the memorable career herself, and it’s all because she too was able to break free from the Xenuites. “Juliette got in trouble because she got back into drugs,” Domingo claims. “She was in my course group refusing to study. She put her feet on the table and refused.” A stoned cult member with a penchant for showing the world the soles of feet? The fact that Juliette’s somehow not in the new Tarantino might be more baffling than any aspect of Scientology. View Slideshow: 13 Reasons to Be Glad You Never Slept With Brad Pitt
In June the world was introduced to 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days couple Rebecca and Zied in TLC’s teaser trailer. The pair raised eyebrows for a handful of reasons, one of which is that Rebecca was already married to someone else. Now the series has finally premiered, and while we’ve got a way to go before we learn Rebecca’s fate, we’re here to tell you at least one of her relationships is officially over. When Zied — and 90 Day fans — met Rebecca, she was sitting on a pretty big secret. Not only had Rebecca been married three times, she was still married to her third husband. “I want the engagement, I want the wedding, I want our life to start,” Rebecca said in the premier. “But,” she said, “I just have left a lot of things out about my past.” “I’m keeping a secret from Zied,” the 47-year-old admitted, referring of course to her marital status. “I have no idea what Zied is going to do when he finds out,” Rebecca worried during her confessional. “He could absolutely end this relationship,” she reasoned. But as we reported, and as Rebecca goes on to explain, the whole situation isn’t quite as shady as it seems. In truth, Rebecca was only married in the legal sense. Not that that’s a small detail — the legal recognition is arguably the whole point of getting married, especially on 90 Day Fiance . But Rebecca was never two-timing Zied; she was separated from her husband, but hadn’t finalized her divorce. “As of right now, I’m not technically divorced from my ex,” said Rebecca in the confessional. She went on to explain that she “just kept putting it off” emotionally, because the relationship ended so badly. Sometimes, relationships end so badly that you can’t bare to face your ex under any circumstances. We could understand how that would interfere with the divorce process, which often requires more painful face time with an ex. Unfortunately it’s something that needs to be dealt with before working up to a new marriage. Now, it looks like Rebecca has finally cleared away the old baggage and paved the way for new suitors like Zied. According to court documents recently obtained by In Touch , Rebecca’s divorce was finalized on July 9. Like Zied, Rebecca’s ex-husband was from overseas. Rebecca and her Moroccan ex originally married in 2013, but were separated in January of 2018. It would be over a year before she actually filed for divorce in May of 2019, well after meeting Zied. But hey, better late than never, right? All things considered, the turn-around on that divorce was pretty quick, once Rebecca actually filed for it. Sometimes these things get messy, and drag on for months to years in court. The first episode shows Rebecca beginning the process, heading to court to file the paperwork. But since the divorce wasn’t finalized until last month, it likely won’t be covered on this season of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days . It’s a shame we won’t get to see if the divorce saves Rebecca and Zied’s relationship on screen any time soon. But judging from the comments made by her (alleged) son on reddit in June, Rebecca and Zied survived the ordeal and still love each other very much. So, we can’t say for sure if Rebecca is single, but at least we all know she’s not married. We’d like to congratulate Rebecca on her un-nuptuals, and wish her the best of luck with her new beau. Tune into 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days on TLC to catch more of Rebecca and Zied. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Before The 90 Days: Meet the Season 3 Stars!!
