Source: Gregg DeGuire / Getty Over the weekend, social media lost their collective minds when Omar Gooding posted a drunken video of him and his brother Cuba Gooding Jr. at Cuba’s birthday party. For several (young) people on the internet, it was the first time they had come to the realization that these acclaimed actors were actually brothers.

We knew all about Venus and Serena, Beyonce and Solange, Jaden and Willow and even all five thousand of the Kardashians but what about some of the other celebrity siblings that some people had no idea about? Hit the flip for more celeb sibs. Some of them may shock you.

For Logan Paul, mocking victims of suicide was apparently not evil enough of an act. The pathetic YouTube star has now decided he has to go ahead and make fun of the LGBT lifestyle as well. On Wednesday, Paul and co-host Mike Majlak recorded an episode of their podcast “Impaulsive,” during which they discussed unique changes they had been making for just a few weeks at a time. “So our New Year’s resolution … we’re vegan now, and we’re sober?” Paul began. “Just for the month,” Majlak assured him. The two total idiots men said they plan to test out a new resolution each month, with January being “Sober Vegan January” and February being “Fatal February” (“steaks, big bottles of Tito’s and sh-t, just wilin’ out,” of course). As for March? “What is it, Male-Only March?” Paul said. “We’re gonna attempt to go gay for just one month.” We’re sorry, but … EXCUSE YOU?!? “For one month, and then swing … and then go back,” Majlak added. The hosts are seemingly unaware of just how insensitive and flat-out ridiculous this notion is: To simply try out a lifestyle, as if it’s a game or social experiment and not a serious issue for those who live through it everyday and continue to be discriminated against. Thankfully, Twitters users wasted no time at all in lashing out against Paul. “So Logal [sic] Paul is ‘going Gay’ for a month? “This idiots [sic] acting like our sexuality is some sort of monthly subscription! Hope he knows once you subscribe you can’t unsubscribe,” one listener tweeted, while another concurred: “He’s not exploring his sexuality. “He’s mocking gay men and using the lgbt community as a publicity stunt for views, and on top of that, is promoting the false belief that being gay is a choice to his young and impressionable audience.” YouTube personality Donny Winter also weighed in as follows: “Looks like #LoganPaul is going gay for a month. Because a person can just flip a switch and be gay/straight whenever they want. “You’d think you’d learn from your past antics, Logan. Video coming.” About a year ago at this time, Paul also came under fire for filming the body of a man hanging from a tree in what has been dubbed the “suicide forest” of Japan. This is a location near the base of Mt. Fuji. In the since-deleted footage, Paul and his friends laughed, spoke in “funny” voices and repeatedly zoomed in on the corpse. Yes, the frickin corpse . He apologized for the controversy shortly afterward, though most doubted his sincerity. “Where do I begin . . . Let’s start with this — I’m sorry,” he said, adding at the time: “This is a first for me. I’ve never faced criticism like this before, because I’ve never made a mistake like this before. I’m surrounded by good people and believe I make good decisions, but I’m still a human being. “I can be wrong.” And now Paul sort of admits he’s wrong again. “very poor choice of words… my fault,” he Tweeted in response to the “gonna go gay” scandal, concluding by hyping his podcast: “let’s get together and talk about it on my podcast next week?” We’re gonna go ahead and give you a hard no on that one, Logan. Call us when you understand that an apology doesn’t really count when you use it as a means of self-promotion. Actually, we take that back: Never, ever call us.

It’s been taking time for some fans to realize, but not them. Diddy tweeted this cryptic tweet about not arguing with folks this year. Moving forward, Diddy will be sending “Ok” texts to those who didn’t get the memo. Folks were wondering if he had been referring to Cassie, his ex-girlfriend of over 10 years. In general, Diddy seems like his focus has been on his family and self-care. I’m not arguing in 2019. I’m sending “ok” and going on about my life….

Source: Roy Rochlin / Getty Lil Uzi Vert fans are freaking out after the Philly rapper announced via his Instagram Story that he’s officially done with music. He wrote in a cryptic post, “I wanna take the time out to say I thank each and every one of my supports, but I’m done with music. I deleted everything. I wanna be normal… I wanna wake up in 2013.” No word on whether or not Uzi is just having a moment or if he’s really done with the game. But if he is telling the truth, does that mean his highly anticipated album ‘Eternal Atake’ won’t be seeing the light of day?

Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner have suffered another personal tragedy. Just a few weeks after announcing that they were expecting their second child , the couple – who met on Married at First Sight – have lost its baby. Otis confirmed this heartbreaking piece of news on Friday night via Instagram. In this case, Otis detailed to followers that she and her husband were left with three options after learning about Jamie’s latest pregnancy. This is what Otis wrote: 1) Wait for my body to miscarry our baby naturally. 2) Go to the hospital and have a D&C 3) Take medication to help my body miscarry quicker. Taking medication – pills called misoprostol – can make a miscarriage happen sooner, according to American Family Physician. This must have been a nightmare decision for the couple to make. As mentioned above, this loss comes more than two years after the married couple lost their baby boy, Johnathan Edward, in 2016, four months into Otis’ pregnancy. Here is what Jamie wrote about that tragedy: I’m trying to listen and ‘move on a bit’ but I just can’t quite figure out how to continue with everyday life. I just have no motivation to do anything. Doug has been so good to me with all of this. He’s remained very strong while I’ve felt so weak. I told him I was trying my best to be strong and remain positive but I just don’t even know how. He just wrapped his arms around me and let me cry. View Slideshow: 32 Stars Who Have Suffered a Miscarriage
Did you watch the first season of Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant ? If not, you’re certainly not alone. Like Bristol Palin, Young & Pregnant didn’t turn out to be the ratings juggernaut the Teen Mom franchise is so desperately seeking these days. Despite the fact that the show failed to take off in the same way as its predecessors, it apparently attracted a large enough audience to warrant a second chance. The Ashley’s Reality Roundup is reporting today that Young & Pregnant has officially been renewed for a second season. “The people behind the scenes of the show got notice in late November that MTV was giving [ Young & Pregnant ] another season,” a source tells The Ashley. “They were supposed to start filming in January, but they started early. Most of the girls have been filming for Season 2 since mid-December.” There were rumors of Young and Pregnant being renewed over the summer, but apparently, MTV didn’t reach the decision to order more episodes until November. Now, for contractual reasons, Season 2 isn’t really Season 2, but Season 1B. It’s a clever workaround that MTV and Viacom use to avoid having to renegotiate contracts every year. But despite the fact that they didn’t get a chance to hold out for more money, all of the moms will be returning for Teen Mom Young & Pregnant Season 1B. (You know a franchise has been around for a long time when it starts delivering mouthful titles like that one.) Ashley Jones, Lexi Tatman, Brianna Jaramillo, Jade Cline and Kayla Sessler are all currently filming. If there was a standout in season 1A, it was likely Jones, whose feud with Farrah Abraham made her a fan favorite on Instagram. (Of course, that only happened after Jones befriended Farrah, which made her quite unpopular for a time.) Rumors that Young & Pregnant had been canceled began to circulate back in November. These were the result not only of ratings that started out low and declined throughout the season, but also of a cryptic Instagram post from Jones that seemed to indicate the show had come to an end. “Well ladies, here goes my heartfelt post about what an honor its been to be apart of a TV show with you girls,” Ashley wrote. “So grateful that our cast is full of love and understanding, and when times get hard we all reach out…It’s been a long emotional journey. But that’s a wrap. Wouldn’t have done it any other way.” So either she was mistaken or MTV execs had a change of heart. Either way, get ready for more Young & Pregnant (if you’re among the very few who watched the first season, that is).
