Danni Baird: Madison LeCroy is LYING About Shep Giving Me Chlamydia!

Southern Charm is now displaying one of the downsides to Austen Kroll's on-again, off-again relationship with Madison LeCroy . It seems that she and Shep don't get along — so much so that Madison claimed that Shep was giving out STIs like candy. But Danni, whom Madison had included in her STI story, says that there's simply no truth to the rumor. Hmmm … “You thought you and Austen were going to fall back into each other's arms and run off into the sunset?” Shep asked incredulously. “Wouldn't that have been nice?” Madison replied. “No,” Shep answered bluntly. “It would have been foolish, I think, for both of you.” “I think it's sad that your opinion weighs so heavily on our relationship,” Madison countered. “Because, to me, it doesn't matter.” Shep and Craig then lament how Austen doesn't seem to speak to them. Madison explains that it's because neither of them seem to actually care about his feelings or desires. “What do you think you know about me? … I've got nothing to hide,” Shep asked and then claimed to Madison. Here, he is clearly trying to goad her into saying something messy.  “You sure about that?” Madison asked in warning. “I heard that you gave her chlamydia.” As she said that, she gestured to Danni Baird. Craig burst into a fit of giggles while Danni looked absolutely stunned. Speaking to Bravo's The Daily Dish , Danni reflected upon being an innocent victim of a very unkind rumor. “What Madison said was very hurtful and untrue,” Danni affirms. “And I feel as though it was clearly calculated,” she adds. “Both directed at Shep and to me.” “I don’t think that Austen is innocent in the matter,” Danni admits. She explains: “They had both, unbeknownst to me, had been harboring some underlying resentment toward me particularly.” Danni speculates that it has something to do with revealing that Madison had been in Gentry Todd's DMs while still dating Austen. “I think [Madison] had harbored that,” she says. “And I had no idea.” “I mean,” Danni adds. “I had actually done everything I could possibly do to kind of protect her in that situation as it was unraveling.” She wanted to keep things calm “and not have it escalate into something bigger,” “But,” Danni admits. “I also had no idea that I had literally given Craig Conover ammunition.” “I didn’t know their relationship backstory,” she confesses. “And quite honestly, I couldn’t have cared less.” “Shep and I dated almost a decade ago,” Danni notes. “And we, or at least I, did not even know Madison and Austen back then.” “So what she said is completely untrue and unfair,” she emphasizes. “It was hurtful.” “She was trying to target Shep,” Danni acknowledges. “But I know good and well she threw me in there for a reason, subconsciously or not.” Nothing like a little armchair psychology when you're breaking down some reality TV drama, right? “And it’s just been really hard for me to comprehend how you can do that to somebody else,” Danni concludes. “It’s not my nature.”

A$AP Rocky Freed From Swedish Prison as Donald Trump Takes Credit For Rapper’s Release

We can practically guarantee this will never be the case ever again, but in this one instance … we couldn’t have said it better than Donald Trump. “A$AP Rocky released from prison and on his way home to the United States from Sweden,” the president tweeted moments ago. “It was a Rocky Week, get home ASAP A$AP!” Yes, the celebratory puns are flowing like Trump Vineyards Champagne today, as fans all over the world celebrate the release of rapper A$AP Rocky from a Swedish prison. As you’ve likely heard by now, A$AP was arrested on assault charges , and he’s spent the past month in jail awaiting trial. According to TMZ, Rocky appeared in court today and was set free following testimony from two witnesses who say he did not strike the alleged victim with a champagne bottle, as the plaintiff had claimed. Today’s court date was only a preliminary hearing, and Rocky is still scheduled to stand trial on August 14. But considering he was released from jail and granted permission to leave the country, it’s been widely assumed that he’ll be found not guilty in absentia. After all, extraditing him would be a nightmare, given the fact that Rocky has the full support of President Trump. Trump took up A$AP’s cause last month and he has repeatedly called for his release in recent weeks. “Give A$AP Rocky his FREEDOM,” Trump tweeted on July 25. “We do so much for Sweden but it doesn’t seem to work the other way around. Sweden should focus on its real crime problem! #FreeRocky” “THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART TO ALL OF MY FANS, FRIENDS AND ANYONE ACROSS THE GLOBE WHO SUPPORTED ME DURING THESE LAST FEW WEEKS,” the rapper wrote on Instagram. “I CANT BEGIN TO DESCRIBE HOW GRATEFUL I AM FOR ALL OF YOU THIS HAS BEEN A VERY DIFFICULT AND HUMBLING EXPERIENCE I WANT TO THANK THE COURT FOR ALLOWING ME BLADI AND THOTO TO RETURN TO OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF THE LOVE AND SUPPORT,” he added. We join millions of fans (and one sitting president) in welcoming A$AP home. View Slideshow: 14 Things Kanye West Actually Said in His Meeting with Donald Trump

Mario Lopez: Will He Be Fired for Transphobic Remarks?

For baffling reasons, Mario Lopez thinks that it’s “dangerous” to support trans kids . What’s more, he decided to voice that awful opinion. The backlash was loud and well-deserved. Now, sources say that Mario could lose his job Mario sat down with infamous conservative pundic Candace Owens and suggested that two things were dangerous. One, believing women who come forward after being assaulted. Two, emotionally supporting transgender children. Now, RadarOnline reports that Mario’s entire career may be in jeopardy. “The execs at NBC held an emergency meeting yesterday to discuss Mario’s future with the show,” an insider reveals. The source explains that they held this meeting “because they do not see how they can just let this fly” “Mario’s comments are not an accurate representation of what the network stands for at all,” the insider points out. “The network prides itself on equality,” the source adds. “And,” the insider expresses. “Do not accept anti LGBTQ hate speech at all.” Sometimes, people think of transphobic statements as merely a character flaw, like having a bad opinion. But statements of bigotry — celebrities calling supporting trans kids “dangerous” — can get trans children killed. It’s more than “just words.” “If you come from a place of love, you know, you really can’t go wrong,” Mario said during the ill-advised, ill-fated interview. “But at the same time,” he continued. “My God.” “if you’re 3 years old, and you’re saying you’re feeling a certain way or you think you’re a boy or girl whatever the case may be,” Mario said for some reason. He continued: “I just think it’s dangerous as a parent to make this determination then.” Mario did not explain how accepting your child for who they are might be “dangerous.” Mario did, at least, apologize after his name trended in the worst way for hours. “The comments I made were ignorant and insensitive, and I now have a deeper understanding of how hurtful they were,” Mario said. “I have been and always will be an ardent supporter of the LGBTQ community,” he insisted. “And,” Mario added. “I am going to use this opportunity to better educate myself.” “Moving forward,” he vowed. “I will be more informed and thoughtful.” Mario apologizing is a good first step … but not everyone is convinced that it’s anything more than an effort to save his career. “His apology really meant nothing at all,” the insider says dismissively. “All it does is solidify that he was aware that his comments were transphobic and hurtful,” the source adds. Apparently, Mario’s PR team thinks that the network may “make an example out of him,” and the insider thinks that they’re  “probably right.” “He lost a lot of fans from this,” the source points out. “And there is no way that he could ever really recover them back.” Mario has hosted Extra since 1994. The show was quick to release a statement: “While we have enjoyed a long relationship with Mario Lopez, who we know to be a caring person,” the statement began. Extra continued: “The opinions he expressed in this interview do not reflect those of Extra.” “We wholeheartedly embrace our friends from the LGBTQ community and believe they need support and love,” the statement eaffirmed. The statement concluded: “For more support on these issues you can go to GLAAD.org.” It is believed that Mario may keep his Access Hollywood gig, but public reactions could always change. Honestly? It’s a wonderful thing that society has reached a point where someone being transphobic is a scandal but being trans is not. That said, some suggest that if Mario is sincere about making this a learning opportunity, that can only be a good thing. Years ago, Katie Couric asked some very impertinent questions of some trans women and faced huge backlash over it. Since then, she learned from that and used her voice and profession to be an advocate for the trans community. It would be amazing to see Mario do the same. Ultimately, though, his career’s survival will be a business decision. It always is. View Slideshow: 14 Noteworthy Transgender Pioneers

Sen. Kamala Harris Only Candidate Who Dropped In The Polls After Detroit Debate

D uring the first Democratic debate, Sen. Kamala Harris went viral for holding Joe Biden accountable for comments about segregationists and his policy on bussing. Now, the tables have turned and Harris took a blow in the polls.  See Also: This Colin Kaepernick Retweet Says Everything You Need To Know About The NFL Players’ Anthem Grievance According to the Morning Consult poll, Harris went from 13 to 10 percentage points, the only top eight candidates to drop. Sanders, Booker, Buttigeg, Booker, O’Rourke and Yang all remained the same. Warren went from 13 to 15 percent. Biden went from 31 to 32 percent. Harris’ drop could be due to the attack by Tulsi Gabbard . The Congresswoman from Hawaii said, “Now Senator Harris says she’s proud of her record as a prosecutor and that she’ll be a prosecutor president. But I’m deeply concerned about this record. There are too many examples to cite but she put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana.” She continued, “She blocked evidence — she blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California.” Harris tried to defend herself but Gabbard continued, “The bottom line is, Senator Harris, when you were in a position to make a difference and an impact in these people’s lives, you did not. And worse yet, in the case of those who were on death row, innocent people, you actually blocked evidence from being revealed that would have freed them until you were forced to do so.” WATCH: Tulsi Gabbard brings up Kamala Harris' record as California AG, saying Harris “put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana.” #DemDebate #DemDebate2 #DemocraticDebate pic.twitter.com/1634mXChh3 — NewsBusters (@newsbusters) August 1, 2019 Biden got pummeled as well, especially by Cory Booker. When Biden tried to distance himself from Obama’s immigration policies, Booker went in, “You can’t have it both ways. You invoke  President Obama  more than anybody in this campaign. You can’t do it when it’s convenient and then dodge it when it’s not. And the second thing that this really irks me because I heard the vice president say that if you got a PhD., you can come right into this country. Well that’s playing into what the republicans want, to pit some immigrants against other immigrants.” He also said, “Some are from shithole countries and some are from worthy countries. We need to reform this whole immigration system and begin to be the country that says everyone has worth and dignity and this should be a country that honors for everyone. ” Nonetheless, that hasn’t shaken Biden in the polls.

How You REALLY Doin’?! Is Wendy Williams’ Show Ending After Season 11?

Source: Astrid Stawiarz / Getty Rumors Swirl That Wendy Williams’ Show Will End After Season 11 Rumors are swirling that Wendy Williams’ show is ending after its 11th season. The talk show host who excitedly told her studio audience this week that her show’s been renewed for an 11th season, might be preparing for her final go-round. LoveBScott reports that Wendy’s next season could be her last. According to the site, after an “extremely difficult” season in the midst of Wendy’s unplanned hiatuses the show’s future is uncertain. “This was an extremely difficult season to get through for the staff and Wendy herself, obviously. With the show’s renewal set to end after the 2019-2020 season, everyone thinks it’s the perfect time to say goodbye move on. Wendy has enough going on as it is and honestly no one, including Wendy, is sure she can even make it through season 11. Not to mention, advertisers consider her to be a ‘risk’ due to her unplanned hiatuses and extended breaks. It’s very likely the show won’t be back.” If you can remember, Wendy went on several breaks this season to deal with medical issues. Many speculated however that she was off the air in connection with her husband’s infidelity and alleged love child with Sharina Hudson. View this post on Instagram That's a wrap! Season 10 is over!

Amy Roloff Sells Farm to Ex-Husband, Makes an Absolute Killing

One day, the sad news will come and TLC will cancel Little People, Big World. But Amy Roloff can now take solace in the knowledge that another job on another network will likely be sitting there, waiting for her. Indeed, the reality star is apparently well-prepared to host a series on HGTV about property-flipping. We say this because Oregon property records reveal that Amy has officially sold a portion of her family’s farm to her ex-husband, Matt. She didn’t merely sell it, however. She raked in an ENORMOUS profit. The aforementioned documents, which were obtained this week by Radar Online, state that the mother of four sold this section of land for a whopping $667,000. To put this in perspective?  In 1990, newlyweds Matt and Amy purchased the farm together for just $185,000. The debate over the future of this property and whether or not Amy was going to sell it to Matt was the main storyline on Little People, Big World this  past season. It prompted a number of arguments between the exes, who split over three years ago yet who have continued to work together and live in close proximity to one another. At one point on the series this spring, Amy slammed Matt for bullying her about the farm. “I just want to make the best decision,” Amy told the camera at the time of why she was taken so long here to figure out next move, adding: “Moving out of a house that I never really thought I’d move out of years ago. … to think about that now is a little daunting. It is a little scary, it’s a little intimidating because I’ve never really been on my own before.” Here’s the confusing thing, however: Amy did NOT sell Matt the land on which her actual house sits. She sold Matt a segment of the land around where his actual house sits so that he can renovate it and work on however he sees fit. In early June, Matt shared a lengthy message on Instagram in order to explain just what was going on with this sale and the farm debate in general. “I have chosen to buy (and Amy has chosen to sell) me only one side of the farm,” he wrote, explaining that pumpkin season was very much a go and elaborating as follows: “For now she is only selling me her partial share of ownership in the side (DW) that I live on… “She will remain in her house (and on the farm) and 1/2 owner of our original farm until she decides to leave.” Amy has made it clear, though, that she has decided to leave. She is in the process right now of looking for a new home away from the farm. Someday, Matt told his followers, “we will jointly work to sell the side she lives on together. “This may happen in the future but it’s not happening yet! “The only change (for now) is that I will take title to the DW and can decide to remodel it to be more accessible with a lower kitchen or walk-in shower like my home in Arizona.” In conclusion, Matt — who recently made it clear he wants to move to Arizona full-time — wrote that little is changing about the business or the farm as fans know it. But down the line? “The future may be different …but Now is Now …and this is where we are at this moment in time…. Maybe one of the kids will eventually buy it?? Who knows?” Might this kid be Jeremy?  The family’s oldest son has said he wants to maybe run a farm someday . For now, though, we can’t predict his future or the future of any Roloff, with the possible exception of Amy: She’s probably dining on champagne and lobster tonight! Way to make a killing, Ams!

Jay Smith Released from ICE Custody, Says: NOW I Know Who’s Against Me!

In a stunning twist that truly no one saw coming, 90 Day Fiance star Jay Smith was released from ICE custody this week. His bailout came as a major surprise for several reasons, but a lot of fans want to hear from him. How does Jay feel about his incarceration? What are his plans now? Will he just wait for deportation or is he going to fight for legal residency? Here is what Jay has to say in his first statement since his release: 1. Jay did not have a fun July He spent almost the entire month behind bars. Now, for the first time, he is breaking his silence. 2. Ashley took out a protection order On July 1, she obtained a Protection From Abuse order. Jay had allegedly broken into her home, and Ashley apparently had evidence of alleged abuse during their marriage (awful stuff). The goal of the PFA was to keep Jay away. 3. Jay promptly broke the rules As you can see in his fateful Instagram Story, Jay discussed the PFA … which he’s not allowed to do. This was a violation, and so the police contacted him and told him that he would be arrested. 4. Jay did the smart thing, here He voluntarily turned himself in to authorities, and even implied as much on Instagram — even if most followers didn’t yet know what was going on. 5. Jay followed through and was arrested Because he is not an American citizen (or even, it is believed, a legal resident), Jay was then placed in ICE custody. 6. Even Ashley was devastated This is not how she wanted this to end. Yes, Jay had cheated on her — and allegedly done much worse — but the part of her that still loves him hated the idea of him spending weeks at a time in a cell. View Slideshow

Jersey Shore Recap: Ronnie Lies to Protect Jen Harley AGAIN!

Another Jersey Shore wedding is almost upon us! Okay, so  Mike Sorrentino and Lauren Pesce actually got married back in November, but on the show, they're just now entering the final preparation stage. And — as is pretty much always the case these days — Ronnie Magro is dropping the ball and making things more complicated for everyone. To be fair, however, Ronnie has a lot on his plate, and it seems he's once again being abused by Jen Harley, whose love language is punching. It all unfolded in ugly fashion on Jerzday night's episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Take a look: 1. A Simpler Time Or was it? As far as we can tell, Ronnie and Jen’s relationship has always been abusive — a fact that’s never prevented them from posing for “happy family” selfies. 2. Not-So-Fond Memories To remind us of how long this has been going on, Thursday’s episode of Jersey Shore took us back to late 2018, a time when Ronnie’s lies about Jen were so apparent that his castmates’ frustration was beginning to show. 3. A Bad Situation When Ron nearly missed Mike Sorrentino’s sentencing, he claimed that he had been jumped in a parking lot in Secaucus, New Jersey — but last night, the truth came out. 4. A Happier Couple As Mike and Lauren’s wedding planning comes to a head, Ronnie is absent for several key events, which is a problem, as he’s one of the best men, and there’s a whole freakin’ dance routine involved. 5. The Explainer The reason, of course, is all the drama surrounding his relationship with Jen, a fact Ron finally makes clear in a series of Instagram posts. 6. Confirming the Obvious “Sorry for lying to my friends and family, sometimes u love people so much your willing to lie and the hurt the people that love u the most to protect,” Ron wrote.
