Dave Starbuck/Future Image/WENN.com Tia Mowry Shows Off Baby Cairo Tia Mowry gave viewers of her Facebook show “Tia Mowry’s Quick Fix” a sweet surprise today. He newborn baby girl made her first public appearance. Tia goes on to explain the meaning behind Cairo’s name on the episode. “Cairo basically means “‘victorious”. My husband was in the air flying and he always feels to his mother in the air. He wanted the baby’a name to have those letters (a-i-r). Tiahna has “Tia” in there, Tiahna means “follower of Christ”. Sooooo cute! Tia who had a cesarian section, says Corey was outside balling as he waited to meet their daughter.  Meet Cairo Tiahna Hardrict: Aren’t they cute? Cree actually turned 7 this week and his mom reminisced a little about her post-partum body. I remember after giving birth to Cree, my belly didn’t all of a sudden go flat. I did have a C-Section, (as well as with my second pregnancy) and I thought something was wrong with me. I had seen in magazines the many women on the beach a few weeks  #postpartum  in a two piece. To be honest, it had to take time for me to embrace my new body. With this second pregnancy, I now have embraced that fact that I’ve housed a human being. A miracle. A life. If it takes a while for me to get back to my normal self, than so be it. This.Is.Me. And I love me.       Congratulations Tia!   Continue reading

John-David Duggar and Abbie Grace Burnett: They… Are… Courting!

John-David Duggar has apparently come out of the closet. No, not like that . You do know which famous family he’s a part of, right? Last summer, though, we EXCLUSIVELY reported that John-David was involved in a secret courtship . That may or may not have been the case at the time. But now this Counting On cast member has gone public with a verified courtship, confirming to Us Weekly that he has taken this very, very serious step with Abbie Grace Burnett. “Abbie and I are just so excited, we’ve known of each other for several years,” the 28-year-old told the aforementioned tabloid of this relationship, adding: “We fell in love very quickly and it’s been a wonderful journey thus far.” This exciting piece of news comes about two years after Jinger Duggar sort of claimed that her brother was involved with some other woman, as questions about John-David’s love life have been plaguing the Internet for a long time now. The guy is 28 years old after all. That’s like retirement age for the Duggars in terms of courting, marrying and then having many babies. He’s fallen way behind already! This comes as little surprise to anyone familiar with John-David, as he’s considered the most quiet of almost all Duggars and perhaps the one least interested in the spotlight. John-David is Michelle and Jim Bob’s second-oldest son, the twin brother of fan favorite Jana Duggar… yet you probably know very little about him. He works as a pilot, firefighter and sheriff’s deputy and he sometimes clashes with his conversation/controlling father. There’s even been talk that Duggar may walk away from reality television entirely ! Abbie, who is 26, says the following to Us Weekly about when her love first bloomed for this reluctant TLC cast member: “John flew in for a church event here in Oklahoma where I’m from. We really got connected then.” Well… okay then! We see that she is a woman of few words. No wonder these two get along so well! According to the now-defunct BurnettFamily10 blog that was once run by Burnett’s family, Abbie had seven siblings as of 2010, including a brother whose hyphenated name is strikingly similar to that of her future husband. On the archived “About” section of this since-deleted blog, her siblings are listed as John-Clay, Hannah, Caleb, Charity, twins Maggie and Carinna and Benjamin. And according to the TLC website, Abbie works as a nurse, which makes her a perfect match for volunteer first responder John-David. She also resides in Oklahoma, while John-David lives in Arkansas with his family. We wonder where they will live if they get married. “Big news! #JohnDavidDuggar has a special someone,” wrote TLC on its official Instagram account this week, adding as a tease: “Visit TLCme.com to meet the happy couple, and learn more about #AbbieBurnett.” Wow. She has her own hashtag. This really must be serious! John-David one quipped that he’ll be a “bachelor until the rapture,” so he truly must have intense feelings for Abbie. Or he must feel intense pressure from his loved ones. Either way… best of luck to the new and official couple! View Slideshow: Duggar Family Courtship Application: Revealed!

Donald Trump Threw Starburst Candies at Angela Merkel

Well, no matter where you fall on the ideological spectrum, surely we can all agree that it’s been yet another bonkers week in the world of American politics. At this point, if you were to list all the ridiculous news that’s come out of the Trump White House in the past month, it would sound like you were singing a parody of “We Didn’t Start the Fire.” Kids in cages, Manafort jailed, North Korea summit fail , Kim Kardashian, Kim Jong-Un, nobody is having fun! You get the idea. There’s so much appalling news making the headlines these days (did we mention the kids in cages?) that it’s easy to forget the lighter side of the Donald. Remember all that goofy, blowhard sh-t he used to say and do before he got into politics? Yeah, he’s still doing that stuff, except now it’s overshadowed by the fact that he might literally destroy the world. And that’s a real tragedy, because when he’s at his most infantile, Trump is every bit as unintentionally funny as Tommy Wiseau or Don Jr. The latest shenanigans from our wacky president come to us from the G7 summit, where the world’s most influential leaders famously stared Trump down and received a doofy Alfred E. Neuman grin in return. We expect Trump to behave like a petulant toddler on the world stage, but this time he really upped the ante by literally throwing candy at arguably the most powerful woman in the world. Yes, according to Newsweek , Trump tossed a couple Starbursts at German Chancellor Angela Merkel , and said — we sh-t you not: “Here, Angela. Don’t say I never give you anything.” Is this guy wacky or what? The incident was described in detail by Eurasia Group President Ian Bremmer: “Trump was sitting there with his arms crossed, clearly not liking the fact that they were ganging up on him,” Bremmer said. “And at that point, he stood up, put his hand in his pocket, his suit jacket pocket, and he took two Starburst candies out, threw them on the table and said to Merkel, ‘Here, Angela. Don’t say I never give you anything,’” Wow. If those had been yellow Starbursts, we’d be a week into World War III right now. Fact. Fortunately, Trump carries only beautiful, gorgeous pink ‘Bursts in his jacket. Just a terrific flavor, folks, really.

If You Care: Here’s The Reason 30-Year-Old Blac Chyna Kicked Her 18-Year-Old Boo YBN Almighty Jay Out Of The Playroom

Blac Chyna Split With YBN Almighty Jay Over ‘Flirting’ As you may already know, it’s a wrap for Blac Chyna and her barely legal boo-thing YBN Almighty Jay . YBN went public with the news of their split via IG, but Chyna remained silent and seemingly unbothered on her end. But what was the reason for their split? According to TMZ , pretty predictably, some very 18-year-old isht ultimately led to their demise. Insider sources say that Chyna wasn’t too pleased with the fact that Jay was sliding into girls his own age’s DM’s behind her back. Also, she caught wind of him hanging out with a few women here and there after his shows. Bear in mind, this boy left high school about 15 minutes ago…but we digress. To top it all off, Chyna thinks he may have gotten a chick pregnant as well, though there’s no concrete proof at the moment. Either way, Chyna got fed up with fighting with the youngin’ over his shenanigans, and called things off. We guess now all she needs to do is come up with a creative coverup idea … Photo by Raymond Hall/GC Image/Splash/Instagram

XXXTentacion "Wanted" to Die Young For Attention, Source Claims

On Monday, the music world was stunned by the news that the rapper known as XXXTentacion was shot dead at the age of 20. The controversial artist, whose real name was Jahseh Dwayne Onfroy was leaving a motorcycle dealership when an unidentified assailant approached his car and shot him several times. Onfroy was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a nearby hospital. His gunman remains at large. News of Onfroy’s death received a mixed reaction on social media due to the abusive behavior that characterized his life. Many young artists have courted self-destruction, but few have behaved as violently toward others as XXXTentacion. Despite his youth, the allegations against Onfroy are too numerous to list here. The most appalling include his sustained, methodical abuse of his pregnant girlfriend and his near-fatal strangulation of a gay, whom Onfroy appears to have attacked for no other reason than his sexual orientation. Onfroy often rapped about suicide in his songs, but his death almost certainly came as a surprise. But that doesn’t mean it was totally unexpected to those who knew him best. “XXXTentacion immortalized Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. and wanted to die young just like them,” a source connected to the rapper tells Radar Online. “He craved attention.” The insider says that Onfroy’s primary ambition in life was to be talked about and remembered. He was reportedly willing to do anything to achieve this goal including, possibly, dying young. “He wanted to have people talking about him, his career and his potential just like Pac and BIG. He was that dude who didn’t give a f-ck about anything,” the source claims. “He has no regrets in life. He was him and loved himself with all his flaws.” The insider says that in addition to glamorizing suicide, Onfroy often instigated violent conflicts , seemingly with the intention of going out in a blaze of glory. It may be quite some time before we have any new information about the identity of Onfroy’s murderer. But those who knew the rapper best say they won’t be surprised if it was someone he knew well. We’ll continue to keep an eye on the situation and update you as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

Meredith Phillips, Former Bachelorette Star, Says She Was Drugged and Assaulted on Season 2

Meredith Phillips, the star of ABC’s Bachelorette back in 2004, said this week on a podcast that she was drugged and sexually assaulted by a crew member on the set of this long-running ABC reality show. It’s a damning and troubling accusation. Per Reality Blured,  Phillips made this allegation while speaking to Steve Carbone (aka Reality Steve) in response to a question about the most challenging aspect of production. “Well, besides being always really tired and some of the producers were – how do I say this? Helpful but not helpful, in terms of trying to make me relax,” Phillips replied, somewhat mysteriously. She then elaborated: “Normally, I wouldn’t talk about this, but I’m going to tell you because it’s bothered me for years. “And I know another friend of mine who was working on the show felt the same experience I did, about getting roofied and in a hot tub and kind of accosted.” Wait… what? Roofied? As in: someone drugged Phillips and took advantage of her? Yes, she says. The allegedly awful deed was done by “a masseuse that a producer hired to come into my room and to give me a massage,” says Phillips. The ex-reality star says she assumed the pill this person gave her was an “aspirin or something to loosen up my back.” But… “It definltey wasn’t that, that’s for sure. The last thing I remember was she got naked and she was in the tub with me, and rubbing my back and rubbing areas probably she shouldn’t have. “And then I was put in bed. I woke up naked. Don’t remember much.” Yikes. That’s extremely disturbing to hear. Phillips, whose season of The Bachelorette was filmed in 2003 and aired in early 2004, said that the experience was “hard for me to talk about because I think I’ve put it somewhere else in my brain.” She was rejected by Bob Guiney on The Bachelor Season 4, finishing as the third runner-up, prior to starring as The Bachelorette and selecting Ian McKee as her winning suitior. The couple broke up in February of 2005. Thinking back on this horrifying incident, Phillips said once whatever she had taken kicked in, “I literally couldn’t even move my body, so I have no idea what the pill was, at all. “All I know is that I was told that, ‘This will make you feel better.'” ABC is yet to address this charge, but we’d expect the network to make a statement at some point. Why didn’t she leave the series after this happened? There was “definitely a part of me” that wanted to, she acknowledges, “but I am also the kind of person that finishes what she starts… “It is a huge deal. I have worked through it.” The story has come out just days before Becca Kufrin debuts as The Bachelorette on Season 14. View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Season 14: Who Are Becca’s Men?

Jenelle Evans & David Eason: The Haters Want Us to Get Divorced!

Divorce rumors seem to circulate non-stop for just about every married couple in the Teen Mom franchise. (With the exception of Cole DeBoer and Chelsea Houska , of course. No one seems to doubt that those two are in it for the long haul.) But there’s only one marriage that fans actively want to fail: Yes, every time there’s a new report that Jenelle Evans and David Eason are getting divorced , a certain segment of the Teen Mom 2 fandom jumps for joy. It’s not so much that they all want Jenelle to be miserable (although some certainly do). It’s more that the longer the Evans-Eason marriage continues, the more likely it is to end in disaster. And since the couple has five kids between them, most viewers would like to see them call it quits before any irreparable harm is done. But no matter how much you tweet or how many David- and Jenelle-shaped voodoo dolls you lock in separate cabinets, it seems Ensley’s mom and dad are still going strong. It’s a sad fact that fans were reminded of during this week’s episode of Teen Mom 2 . The drama-packed reunion special saw Jenelle flipping out on just about every adult in her life except for David. At one point, she absolutely lost it on Nathan Griffth’s girlfriend, Ashley Lanhardt, for daring to hug her mother, the infamous Barbara Evans; “Because you wanna hug my mother in front of everyone,” Jenelle shrieked in an attempt to justify her tantrum. “Me and my mom have turmoil right now.”  This, among other things, caused Babs to lose it: “You f-cking b-tch! I have never seen you like this ever,” she told Jenelle. “Even on drugs, you didn’t act like this.” At that point, David stepped in, because of course, he did: “You’re right, Barb, you’ve never seen her like this because you’ve never seen her stand up for herself.” David probably thought that was a witheringly clever comment, and amazingly, Jenelle agreed with him. It was then that she made the remark that forced those are eagerly hoping for a Jenelle-David breakup to abandon all hope: “I love how everyone hates us so much, but we’re so in love and happy with each other that it’s just like we don’t give a f–k,” Jenelle stated. “Nothing’s wrong with us.” Obviously, Jenelle has said a lot of questionable things over the years – but that last sentence might be her most ridiculous to date. Watch Teen Mom 2 online to remind yourself of just ridiculous Jenelle and David truly are. View Slideshow: David Eason Taunts Kailyn Lowry: You Deserve to Get Your Ass Kicked!
