Caelynn Miller-Keyes Dubbed "Lost, Slutty Duggar Sister" By Bachelor In Paradise Fans

Now, it’s not every day that you see the words “Duggar” and “slutty” in the same sentence. Which is probably why so many reality TV junkies were shook by a tweet describing Bachelor In Paradise star Caelynn Miller-Keyes as “the lost, slutty Duggar sister.” Now, if you’re a member of Bachelor Nation, you’re probably familiar with Caelyn from Colton’s season of The Bachelor , as well as the current season of Bachelor In Paradise . We don’t think her behavior on either show could ever really be described as “slutty,” but maybe it’s a relative thing. After all, in the Duggars’ world, wearing a skirt that exposes your knees is considered downright scandalous. (“Knees are for prayin’, not displayin'” is something we could imagine Jim Bob saying.)   As first pointed out by Life & Style , the tweet that prompted a million surprised head nods reads thusly: Take issue with the use of the word “slutty” if you want (We’re pretty sure it’s a joke, so maybe don’t take it too seriously?), but there’s no denying that the second part is true. Once you see the resemblance between Caelynn and the Duggar girls, it really can’t be unseen. And it seems the OG tweeter is not the only one who spotted the Duggar doppelganger among the swimwear enthusiasts on this summer’s BIP. “Caelynn looks like she could be a Duggar sister,” tweeted one viewer. “Is Caelynn a member of the Duggar family????!” added another.  “I watched The Bachelor for the first time this season, and my takeaway is that Caelynn is actually Jessa Duggar wearing a ~very~ light disguise,” a third remarked. Yes, it’s widely agreed that the Duggar Caelynn most resembles is Jessa, who has been conspicuously absent from social media in recent weeks. (This has yet to spark a rumor that Caelynn is actually Jessa in disguise, but the internet being the internet, we’re sure someone will put that out there eventually.) Neither the Duggars nor Caelynn has spoken out about the comparison, which is of course not at all surprising. After all, the Duggar girls probably aren’t allowed to watch shows like BIP. This family is so sheltered, people were surprised when Jill took her kids to see Toy Story 4 , as the Duggars typically steer clear of secular entertainment.  Meanwhile, Caelynn is busy dealing with all that Blake Hortsmann drama . In a way, she’s the anti-Duggar. Jessa and company are always getting trolled for being evangelical prudes, while Caelynn is getting shamed for having sex.

Lamar Odom Gushes Over New GF Sabrina Parr: Khloe Kardashian, Who?!

Khloe Kardashian’s ex has found happiness!  No, not Tristan Thompson , the other equally terrible one — Lamar Odom. Lamar, who was legally married to Khloe for seven years, has made it super known that he has moved on and has found love with new GF — health and life coach Sabrina Parr!  The two began speculating romance rumors after TMZ captured videos of them making out in public, but it was pretty much confirmed later on after they decided to go Instagram official on us.  A source, however, quickly made a rather odd allegation against the new couple, telling  People that whatever was going on between them was “fake.” “They are not dating,” the source said. “There is nothing romantic going on with Sabrina and Lamar. It’s fake.” But Odom, who has been extremely vocal about his “new woman” on social media, shut down the reports right away. And now,  he is speaking out about his relationship with Parr. On Friday, the former NBA player sat down with his girlfriend for an interview with Dish Nation where he was asked about his new romance, as well as his highly publicized marriage to Khloe. Odom was with the reality star from 2009 until 2016, though the two actually split three years earlier due to his partying habits, drug overdose, and insane (!!) amount of affairs, which he opened up about in his book  ” Darkness to Light”. But despite their continuous support and love for one another, it looks like that train has officially left the station. During a “Rapid Fire” segment of the interview, Odom was asked about his feelings for the 35-year-old Kardashian. “I’ve definitely moved on,” he said. (ok, but new girl was sitting right there so of course he had to say that, right?)  But when he was asked if the Kardashian family put him under a “spell” (lol) he reacted perfectly and with grace.  “Hell no,” he said immediately. “I’m here and I’m alert. I’m present.  “I knew what I was getting myself into,” he added. “They always did right by me.” The conversation moved away from Khloe because awkward . .. but he didn’t hold anything back when it came to his current life with Parr. “What makes this relationship different from previous relationships?” host Gary Hayes asked. Odom said: “It’s the truth. She’s black.” “When a black woman comes along, ain’t playing,” Hayes joked, then Parr added, “Oh no, I was not playing at all.” “Yeah, she keeps it real,” Odom gushed. Hayes then went on to question Parr, asking her how on earth she was able to give Lamar ” a chance”, despite his rough past with sex and drug addiction, as well as his  near-fatal overdose in 2015 . Odom spoke first and said “Sometimes pain, I think, attracts women. The pain I’ve been through.” But Parr had a different, more understandable answer. “That wasn’t my story, I wasn’t attracted to the pain and the drama,” she said. “You have to meet people where they are.” “He was never in a position to be someone’s husband, you know?” the life coach added. “He was sick, he needed to heal, he neede to grieve. He experienced a lot of losses. And he never had time to go through that.” Well, it sounds like these two could actually be good for each other. So… here’s to a happy & healthy future for Lammy!

17 Truly Shocking Reality TV Scandals

Reality TV may help its stars earn a pretty penny, but it doesn't make their lives any less scandalous.  The Hollywood Gossip has rounded up some of the biggest scandals to rock reality TV. Seriously, these are huge — and yet not all are that surprising. Know what we mean? Just think of the kind of person it takes to actually go on reality television, right? Scroll down to read through each one… 1. Chrisley Most Definitely Does NOT Know Best Todd and Julie Chrisley, the stars of USA Network’s wildly successful reality series, Chrisley Knows Best were indicted on 12 counts of tax evasion and financial fraud in August 2019. They face up to 30 years in prison. Wowza, right? There are even rumors that their reality show is about to be canceled. It’s not like they can take the cameras into prisons, you guys. 2. TLC Swings the Axe on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo Viewers were already disgusted with the antics from the Thompson-Shannon family, but things reached another level when news spread like wildfire that June Shannon was dating her daughter’s former molester. In a word? YUCK. 3. June Shannon Makes the Same Mistakes All Over Again To the surprise of many, June Shannon and her family returned to the spotlight thanks to We TV’s From Hot to Not — a series that focuses Shannon getting a body transformation. Despite the series, and extensive cosmetic surgery being a success, Shannon found warmth in the arms of another man who was less than savory. To everyone on the outside, it looks like June is addicted to crack cocaine. Hell, she was arrested for felony possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia in March 2019. Even an intervention months later failed to get June to dump her boyfriend, Geno Doak. Will another TV show be canceled as a result of her dumb decisions? 4. Big Brother 15’s Racism Big Brother has had its fair share of controversial houseguests, but Season 15 featured many of them being racist. It was horrible to watch, but Julie Chen managed to call all of the perpetrators out during their exit interviews. You don’t cross Julie and get away with it! 5. Jon & Kate Plus Lots of H8 Jon & Kate Plus 8 performed very well in the ratings because the titular stars seemed to love each other.

Despite having to quit her post on Dance Moms, she returned shortly after leaving jail. View Slideshow

Say What? Plus-Size Retailer Avenue Is Closing All Their Stores For Good

Read the original here:

Source: valentinrussanov / Getty Plus size women are losing a retail staple. Plus-size retailer Avenue announced it will close all of their stores, according to a press release via liquidation company Hilco Merchant Resources. This plus size store is a staple for size 14+ women looking for moderately priced, everyday work clothing, dresses, bras, and more. Avenue has 222 stores located in 33 states within the U.S. The store was founded in 1987 and is headquartered in New Rochelle, New Jersey. In 2007, the company was purchased by Redcats USA (who is part of the Kering company). In 2012, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was purchased by Versa Capital Management. Now, the company is liquidating all of their locations. What does this mean for you and their plus-size customers? It’s time to shop! Via press release, they revealed, “Avenue shoppers will be amazed not only by the incredible savings, but also by the great selections and styles available at the closing sale.” The brand currently has a lot of great summer styles, up to 70% off, allowing plus-size women to stock up for their August and September summer vacations and beyond. Personally, I like to also shop for upcoming seasons, so this is a great opportunity to also shop for summer by buying timeless things like a white dress or sandals. Avenue shared, “Given the popularity of the brand and the seasonal trends, merchandise is sure to sell out quickly. We are encouraging consumers to shop early and take advantage of these offers.” Naturally, as time goes on, they will continue to slash prices to get rid of merchandise. Will you be shopping Avenue before they close? If you are a plus-size woman, will you miss having access to this retailer? Share with us in the comment section!

#NABJ19 David Oyelowo & Storm Reid Talk Their Time-Traveling Thriller ‘DON’T LET GO’ & Inclusivity In Hollywood

Source: Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo / Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo David Oyelowo & Storm Reid Talk “DON’T LET GO” David Oyelowo and Storm Reid recently brought their excellence in acting to the National Association of Black Journalists Conference . As previously reported the “DON’T LET GO” actors met with journalists and Entertainment Tonight host Kevin Frazier to talk their time-traveling Blumhouse thriller. In the film, Oyelowo plays South Central detective Jack Radcliff who’s hellbent on saving his recently-murdered niece Ashley (Storm Reid.) When he shockingly receives a phone call from his deceased relative, he springs into action and battles time to prevent the young girl’s death from happening. “”DON’T LET GO” is heart-pounding and bizarre—and since it’s produced by Blumhouse we’re anticipating a BIG plot twist.   David told NABJ attendees that the idea of being able to save lost family members attracted him to the film for a deeply personal reason. “There being a chance that I could actually save them is what really drew me to it,” said Oyelowo. “I’m sure there are people in this room who’ve lost people they love. I personally lost my mom two years ago.” Source: Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo / Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo As for Storm who also spoke on playing Gia, sister to Rue (Zendaya) on “Euphoria”, she likes to play characters who have real-life personal battles and whose underlying messages “match with her morals and values.” With that in mind, “DON’T LET GO’s” Ashley was a perfect choice. “I don’t go out looking for these characters who are challenged and who have these circumstances,” said Storm. “But I feel like that’s what makes a real person a real person and that’s how we really show our narratives.” The duo also touched on the need for inclusivity in Hollywood. According to David who also served as a producer on this project, there’s no need for things to be “blackified” but there is a need for our people to be seen on the big screen in diverse stories like this thriller. “As for black people we are not asking for everything to be quote, unquote “blackified” whatever that may mean—but there are specifics about us and our culture and our family and our attitudes and the way we see the world and our history. And that history is valid to be seen by all in its specificity but also in the breadth of its humanity.” “For me, it was [saying] ‘Okay, let’s set this somewhere that feels more specific,” he added. “So we decided that it was going to be in Los Angeles. We decided on a place that’s so often seen in a certain kind of way [South Central Los Angeles], so let’s go to that place and redefine the story that you might see.” Source: Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo / Gustavo Caballero/ South Beach Photo If you’re in Atlanta between August 21st-25 for the BronzeLens Film Festival, there will be a special, opening-night screening of the new film on August 21st at Landmark Cinema (931 Monroe Drive). For everyone else, DON’T LET GO is in theaters Friday, August 30th. -danielle canada @IamDaniCanada
