I was never quite sold on Suki Waterhouse. I did find it funny when she was dating Brad Cooper before he cheated on her, which isn’t really cheating when you’re Brad Cooper and you know these bitches are just trying to mooch, so you do what the fuck you want and they just groupie you and let you in hopes you’ll knock them up or increase their public profile, which I guess he did….but back then, pre-Irina, she was a 21 year old who looked like a 15 year old, that any old Hollywood pervert would be excited by…but now she’s looking 40, she’s just skipped her 20s and 30s, I guess from hard living..and as she goes to film fests and tries to be an actor, instead of a model, while always having been some entitled rich scenester kid from the UK, at all the right parties that took her to this level…I find her and her see through outfit garbage… That’s all I really have to say about that… TO SEE THE REST OF THE PICS CLICK HERE

Instead of arresting Black folks for chilling at a Starbucks, it’s time to start acknowledging the real life heroes who risk their lives for the well being of others — even when others aren’t too fond of their melanin. Like concertgoer Jonathan Smith who was shot twice while rescuing injured people during the Las Vegas massacre (a.k.a. the deadliest mass shooting in US history) that left over 50 dead in 2017. Or Otis Gaither who saved the lives of a Confederate flag toting couple who was trapped in a fire: We can’t forget the hilarious Charles Ramsey who rescued three women who were kidnapped in Cleveland. UFC heavyweight and Houston native Derrick Lewis also risked his life to save a Confederate flag toter during Hurricane Harvey without any hesitation. It’s not just the men who’ve risked it all while trying to protect a supposed enemy.

Source: Bob D’Amico / Getty It’s the last episode of Scandal e ver. Forever, ever! And we kick off with Olivia Pope meeting up with Lonnie Mencken trying to figure out what to do about Jake and Cyrus. Mencken says he’ll help her if she can promise that Mellie makes gun control a priority. Olivia agrees and Lonnie kills himself. That latter part wasn’t part of Olivia’s plan, but that is how Mencken is helping (and keeping himself from being implicated). His death will get Olivia her Senate hearing. Cyrus and Jake are backed into a corner and Olivia sees this as her chance to start over. Eli Pope begs to differ. He thinks Olivia should “stop being a slave, trying to fix massa’s problems,” and skip town. He set up a nice offshore bank account for her so she can disappear if she wants to, but the old Liv is back so you know she won’t be going anywhere. Meanwhile, Papa Pope is about to pay everyone dust because he refuses to get caught up in Olivia’s whistleblowing shenanigans. But at the same time, you know he’s not going to leave without knowing Olivia’s fate first. via GIPHY The gladiators are terrified about testify about all the terrible things that have been done as part of B613 because it could potentially mean prison time. Mellie is terrified about testifying too because she could still get impeached and forced to step down. Meanwhile, Charlie is still locked up and doesn’t even know they’re doing this. However, when it’s time for the deposition, they spill all the tea about everything from Frankie Vargas to President Rashad, but they frame it as Jake and Cyrus being the masterminds. After the hearing, Rosen tells them that they should say their goodbyes now before the committee makes its recommendations because again, prison could be a reality. The first order of business is going to visit Charlie in prison. They inform him what’s going on, and Charlie and Quinn finally get their wedding. Jake confronts Rosen in a dark parking lot and threatens to kill him unless he does the “smart” thing, but Rosen is finally about that life. As Jake touches the gun in his waistband, Rosen stretches his arms out to the side and says he’s not giving in to him so he might as well do what he has to do. He basically reads Jake for filth and his thesis is, “I am not your bitch, but you belong to Cyrus.” That last part is true. We all know Cyrus gave the order to kill Rosen and Jake attempted to do what he was told, but Rosen got all up in his head so the murder is off, for now. Cyrus is livid and hurls all the usual insults at Jake, but Jake is finally tired of being a lap dog and tells him that he could have killed Rosen if he wanted to because he’s cold-blooded like that and killing is what he does. But Cyrus is the one who’s always barking orders and never actually getting in the midst of the action. That’s all it takes to put the battery in Cyrus’ back. In fact, Cyrus interrupts Abby and Rosen’s cuddle time in bed with a text telling Rosen that he wants to strike a deal. Rosen, the only truly clean individual in this entire universe, is naive enough to think that Cyrus is really about to lay down and take his punishment. So, they meet up at Cyrus’ office, Cyrus hands him a drink, and…you know where this is going, right? Rosen drinks the poison and the Cyrus smothers him with a pillow as he already lay choking from the poison. via GIPHY Why no one realized this was a trap is beyond any of us, because Cyrus would literally do something like this. We know this. They should have known this, but that’s what it is. So let’s pour one out for Rosen. via GIPHY Now we find Abby, Olivia, Quinn and Huck standing over Rosen’s body in the morgue. The coroner said it was a heart attack, but they know what’s up. Abby refuses to cry because she wants to act now and grieve later. Huck offers to take care of it but Olivia tells him not to because they’re the good guys now. “We’re the only white hats left,” she offers. Quinn goes to Papa Pope for help and he tells her like he told Olivia that they are on their own. He’s retired from the mess and dasit. via GIPHY Olivia laments to Fitz that they’ve lost. The thing is, with Rosen dead, that means there’s the deputy AG left. Cyrus still has the deputy AG in pocket so he’s going to win. Fitz is hopeful that things will work out, but Olivia has a meltdown because she hasn’t fixed anything and she dragged her people down (she actually did fix something, she got them to tell the truth, which set them free as the cliche goes). She points out that this is most likely the last time they’ll ever be in the same room together alone since she’s probably going to jail and that they can either keep talking about impending doom or do something else. You already know they chose something else. via GIPHY The next morning, Fitz gets news that the committee postponed the recommendations because they have a new witness. Turns out it’s Eli Pope. He was moved by news of Rosen’s death. He obviously knew what’s up and again, Rosen was the one person who didn’t deserve what he got. The committee thinks Eli is just a paleontologist so they’re not taking him seriously at all. They’re not even trying to hide their smirks and are especially amused when he tells them that he created B613. He goes into his most epic rant ever by telling them that he created B613 in response to them, “White men who were masters of the universe who left the world to rot.” He goes in about their privilege and how they have this power but act like petulant children so he had to come in and save them, and the world, from themselves. Then he flips it by telling them that they bare the responsibility for all that B613 hath wrought. He also lowkey makes them realize that they got played by a black man. “I am responsible for the fact that this nation still stands. I wake up every morning and I make America great again, this is my legacy!” is the exact quote to cap our last Rowan special. Now he has their attention, they hang on to every word he says. He manages to control the hell out of them, because that’s what he does, and says he can give them command, but he’s not going down for it, and that’s what it is. Rowan Pope saves the day. Finally, Jake gets arrested. Quinn rejoices with Abby and Huck because “the good guys win.” Abby finally breaks down because “the good guy is dead,” which is true. Olivia visits Jake in prison before he gets transferred and offers a teary apology for forcing him to step out of the sun. He tells her not to be sorry, that he loved her and that she should never be sorry for that. Jake thanks her for showing up for him and they exchange their final goodbyes. Sally Langston delivers news that the shadow government has been put to bed and that Mellie Grant is back on track. Cyrus pays Olivia a visit and Olivia is not with the small talk. She just wants him to hand in his resignation letter. Cyrus starts talking about how he can’t escape the darkness and ends up signing the resignation letter and that’s that. Cyrus, the one who should actually be in jail, get to roam free. Yes, Cyrus has to live with the “darkness,” but it just doesn’t seem right that Cyrus gets to be free while Jake rots in jail. via GIPHY Mellie then asks Olivia how they can restore the public’s faith in govt institutions and makes it clear that she needs Olivia by her side, but Liv is done. Liv tells Mellie that she has always known how to run the country in the way it needs to be run, and she will be great. Mellie asks what Olivia is going to do and her reply is, “Whatever I want.” Translation: Olivia Pope is free. via GIPHY The final episode winds down with a montage of Mellie in the Oval Office with Marcus by her side as the new VP. Abby and Huck visit Rosen’s grave, Charlie, Quinn and their baby are back together as a happy family, and Jake is in his cell fantasizing about being back in the sun with Olivia. Finally, Olivia goes to see Fitz and they deliver their classic Olitz-style, “Hi,” because you know Vermont is in their future. And the last thing we see is two little black girls at the National Museum of African American History and Culture staring at a portrait of Olivia Pope, the woman who brought down the republic in order to help it rebuild. How’s that for anticlimactic? RELATED POSTS ‘Scandal’ Recap: Olivia Pope Blows The Lid Off B613 ‘Scandal’ Recap: Team Mellivia Is Back In Action

Brian To/WENN.com Mariah Carey Hospitalized Over Intense Delusion Mariah made waves and garnered an outpour of support after revealing that she’s been quietly battling Bipolar Disorder II for many years. MiMi claims she’s able to manage her condition by staying on top of her medications, but it seems she had a bit of a falter about two years back when a severe delusion landed her in the hospital for psych treatment. According to The Blast , just after her split from fiance James Packer , Mariah spent a long summer partying heavily with new boo Bryan Tanaka and apparently got a little lax with her health and proper medication dosage. One night in 2016, the nanny called Nick Cannon in a panic, saying that Mariah had been walking around the home in a ballgown and tiara, along with a Ring-Pop which she claimed was a gift from the royal family. She was asking the nanny to get the twins ready for an important dinner meeting she had lined up for the evening with Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, and Prince. All three had already passed away. Mariah’s team came to the house with a psychiatrist in tow, who determined that she needed immediate hospitalization. She was originally recommended to be placed on an involuntary 5150 hold at The Ronald Regan UCLA Medical Center, but ultimately released to her team and the care of private physicians, while her high-powered friends were enlisted to keep the incident a private matter. Of course, all these claims come from her former manager Stella Bulochnikov, who is currently suing the star. She paints the picture that Mariah is an alcohol and pill-addicted “train wreck.” So while it’s possible…we’ll take it with a grain of salt. Splash/WENN
Even though Kim Zolciak is leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta , it doesn’t look like her feud with NeNe Leakes has run its course just yet. In fact, Kim has written about NeNe, mentioning that she could sue her if she were so inclined. NeNe is clapping back and essentially daring Kim to try it. Kim Zolciak has taken to Instagram to discuss her conflict with her erstwhile costar. “I am so sorry for what has happened @neneleakes.” It starts off as an apology … but quickly changes tone. “We both know the truth, we both know that if I wanted to, I could have a law suit.” And she goes into all of the reasons that she believes that she has grounds to sue NeNe. “For the lies you have spewed, tweeting out fake texts, implying I am racist, attacking me physically, claiming my daughter tweeted negative about you and your home.” That is, of course, a reference to the explosive #RoachGate feud . Kim Zolciak’s statement continues. “We both know these are lies. I have reacted to it publicly and for that I am sorry. I should have risen above it.” And yet she seems to be continuing to react publicly. But hey, that is arguably part of the job of a reality star. “I personally will no longer engage with you on social media and perpetuate the hate. I am asking you to do the same.” We have NeNe’s next engagement on social media below. “We are grown women with families. Enough is enough. I want us to move on.” Good luck with that, Kim. “If you continue this, it will be because you are attempting to stay on the show and stay relevant and that’s on you.” NeNe, of course, was not going to let any part of that slide — particularly not the implied threat of a lawsuit. “Please file a lawsuit Chile! Like I’m begging you.” Most people don’t beg to be sued, but it sounds like NeNe is itching for a court battle. “You can never WIN when you play DIRTY so throw in the towel! I mean throw in the lips.” Another jab at Kim’s appearance, right on the heels of Marlon Wayans making a cruel White Chicks joke at Kim’s expense . “Anytime you wanna go to court, I’m happy to see you there because your lies have runneth over.” So … they both accuse each other of lying. But … are they really willing to take this Kim Zolciak vs. NeNe Leakes battle into a courtroom? Imagine spending years going through school and then law school and passing the bar and working as an attorney … only to have to participate in a lawsuit between two women, one of whom accused the other’s daughter of smuggling cockroaches in her genitals. To say nothing of what the judge would feel. How many legal professionals would be questioning how their careers had brought them to a place where they were taking part in that case? Is anyone else reminded of Joanna Krupa suing Brandi Glanville for saying that Joanna’s vagina smells bad ? It’s worth noting that Joanna actually won her case. What a time to be alive. NeNe also clapped back at Kim on Instagram, writing: “I really wanna keep it 100 but sometimes you have to just keep it bout 75! So many things happen behind the scenes that you guys just never get to know or see.” So she’s holding back due to professional and contractual obligations. “I knew working with her would be a mess and I’ve said it over & over & over again to ALL of my higher ups but what happens, i get reprimanded! I’m the bad guy!” Again, she laments that she can’t reveal what she wants to say. “I wish i could speak so much more freely but it’s best not too.” “Sometimes you just have to let people see things for themselves which is what happened here!” “I’ve been called everything in the book and painted so many different colors i have to wonder if I’m still black.” That was a cute phrase. “Kim loves to push buttons, lie, talk s–t, insult, then become a victim when she’s called out on her s–t!” That is sort of … part of the job of being a reality star, in many people’s minds. But it sounds like she’s implying that there’s some of it that goes on even behind the scenes. “Most people would love for me to be the bully but the only bully here is Kim & her plastic surgeon! Bye wax figure.” Word to the wise: don’t slam those who call you a bully and then insult someone else’s appearance in the same breath.

Getty stock image Man Charged After Firing Shotgun At Teen Looking For High School Directions Unbelievable. Fourteen-year-old Brennan Walker missed the bus yesterday morning and tried to walk to school, but got lost after he couldn’t remember the route. Walker says he stopped to knock on someone’s door in his neighborhood and ask for directions and he was shot at! Brennan Walker told Click on Detroit that he overslept on Thursday, and that his phone had been taken away by his mother, leading him to the homeowner’s doorstep. “I knocked on the door, stepped back, knocked, stepped back and then a lady came downstairs yelling at me,” Brennan told the station. “She asked me, ‘Why are you trying to break into my house?’ and I told her, no, I was just looking for directions to Rochester High.” That’s when another man came down the steps with a shotgun. “I turned back and saw him aiming at me,” he told Click on Detroit. SMH. Brennan, who is 14, said that he kept running and later hid, according to Fox 2 . Footage acquired after the incident from the suspects’ home now tells what motivated the couple to let off shots: race. “One of the things that stands out, that probably angers me the most is, while I was watching the tape, you can hear the wife say, ‘Why did ‘these people’ choose my house?’” mother Lisa Wright tells Fox 2. “Who are, ‘these people?’ And that set me off. I didn’t want to believe it was what it appeared to look like. When I heard her say that, it was like, but it is (what it looks like).” The man who shot at Brennan is being charged with assault with intent of murder and felony firearm according to the Oakland county Sheriff.
