I’ve been following Jessica Lowndes for a while on Instagram and I really think this chick just tries too hard. I don’t know what it is, but she’s not hot enough to be a model. She’s not interesting enough to be an actress or a personality, but she managed to get a decent following and occasionally post her boobies. That said, enjoy average. » view all 11 photos
Paul Zimmerman/WireImage/Leon Bennett/FilmMagic In the key of CUT IT OUT, don’t do this sis… Chrisette Michele Defends Tina Campbell After Tina Campbell got Psalms scalped for admitting to voting for Trump , she’s got a new ally. Chrisette Michele whose social media confession about being dropped by her label and suffering a miscarriage (complete with a picture of a miscarried fetus) sent Twitter into a tizzy, has something headazz to say. According to the “Blame It On Me” singer, she stands with her fellow “strong black woman” Tina Campbell who’s entitled to her opinion on Cheeto In Chief and shouldn’t be “choice shamed.” “Adults do this thing I’d like to call “choice shaming”,” wrote Chrisette. “We can disagree without division.” . @IamTinaCampbell Adults do this thing I'd like to call “choice shaming”. It mimics what children do with bullying. It causes a silencing that mutes the people who have made great contributions. We can disagree without division. Stay #StrongBlackWoman pic.twitter.com/PSPYeerg9q — chrisette michele (@ChrisetteM) October 28, 2017 Unfortunately for her ill-advised message was expertly eviscerated by people pointing out that the black community is entitled to make the choice not to support them. There is no “choice-shaming” at work here. You both became rich & famous through the love and patronage of Black people, only to betray the community by supporting a political platform built on white supremacy. You're not entitled to the Black community's unconditional support. — woman thou art lucid (@CrystalLewis) October 28, 2017 See, this is getting ridiculous. Y’all decided to support a person who is known for homophobia, racism, sexism, and is a bully. You made an intentional choice to perform as she did in voting for him. These are consequences. — PrestonMitchum (@PrestonMitchum) October 28, 2017 So for Tina Campbell’s yet to comment. Yes Chrisette, you and Tina are entitled to your grossly wrong opinions, you’re also entitled to tour pushbacks and label dropping . Enjoy sis! More comments on Chrisette and Tina on the flip.
Wedding bells have rung for Colton Haynes and Jeff Leatham. The beloved Arrow and Teen Wolf star exchanged vows on Friday evening with the Four Seasons artistic director Jeff Leatham in an event seemingly attended by everyone in Hollywood. The ceremony was officiated by Kris Jenner and approximately 120 people watched the 29-year old and 46-year old become Husband and Husband. “It’s just amazing when you find someone who kind of teaches you to love yourself more,” Haynes told People Magazine of Leatham, adding: “The really great thing about being with Jeff is that since we got together my relationships with my friends have gotten better, my family relationships have gotten better. When you learn to really love someone, it’s completely life-changing. Now we have this beautiful life together and this epic journey ahead.” Haynes came out as gay in May of last year. He and Leatham announced their engagement in March in Cabo San Lucas. According to the aforementioned publication, famous guests included: Sofia Vergara and husband Joe Manganiello Melanie Griffith Jesse Tyler Ferguson Lisa Rinna Chelsea Clinton Dylan O’Brien Emily Rickards Billie Lourd Cheyenne Jackson There was also a black-and-white dress code, along with a cocktail hour and crazy fun dance party afterward. Leatham designed most of the wedding and reception himself. He also wrote the following sweet message on Instagram two days ago: “I have the honor and great pleasure of Marrying this Amazing Human Being tomorrow – I love him to the moon and back and I am Blessed to soon call him my #Husband/ “One more sleep baby.” Speaking to People about the affair and his inspiration behind it, Leatham said the following: “If you can imagine Cher meets a Guns ‘N Roses video and that’s the theme of the wedding, “But more than the flowers and decorations, it’s really about everyone coming together and everyone you love being with in the same room. “That was the most important thing for us.” Haynes confirmed his relationship with Leatham on Valentine’s Day, about a month before the proposal. “I SAID YES!!! Thank you @cher for the beautiful ‘I got you babe’ proposal lead in, you sounded incredible as always. The most special night of my life.” the actor captioned a picture of the couple after they agreed to marry. Later on, Haynes actually proposed to Leatham and presented him with his own engagement ring. Wrote Leatham at the time: “I SAID YES !!!

The rollout for Taylor Swift’s upcoming album has not gone as smoothly as the singer had likely hoped. Her first release off “Reputation” was widely panned by critics, who also thought the Look What You Made Me Do video was, frankly, pretty lame. So now the question is this: Did Swift look to change up the negative narrative by acting like her bitter rival, Kim Kardashian? Did she actually get naked for the just-unveiled “… Ready For It” video? That’s what some folks are speculating after watching the footage below, which does appear to depict Taylor in her birthday suit. Taylor Swift Drops Revealing Music Video for “… Ready For It” But only if you look very quickly and not very closely, that is. With some Internet users wondering whether she had chosen to bare it ALL for public consumption, an act that would run contrary to her fairly conservative persona, Swift wrote the following on Instagram yesterday: “It truly warms my heart that so many ppl had so much to say about this bodysuit.” The singer, of course, is being sarcastic. A lot of the comments online from those who believed she really did go nude weren’t exactly positive. As trolls so very often do, they criticized Swift and body-shamed the heck out of her, all while thinking she really did take her clothes off for the video. In reality, she simply wore a bodysuit. To make this point extra clear, Swift shared a number of pictures on social media of her in said bodysuit. She took followers behind the scenes of her shoot for this video, which was inspired by the science-fiction genre and which features many special effects and pretend robots. It’s interesting footage, that’s for sure. And it contains plenty of Easter Eggs for Swifties, such as a reference to boyfriend Joe Alwyn , along with references to past Taylor Swift music videos. To make it apparent once more, however, it does NOT include any shots of Taylor Swift naked. Thankfully, most of Taylor’s loyal fans are well aware of this fact. They have rushed to their hero’s defense on Twitter and other platforms. Wrote one supporter: Do people not understand wtf a bodysuit is? The way the media is spinning this Taylor Swift music video teaser is crazy. And another: That awkward moment when people are trying to shame Taylor Swift for being naked, and it’s just a bodysuit. And a couple more: Swift’s sixth studio album comes out on November 10. Will you buy it?
Remember this time last week when most of us weren’t even aware of the existence of James Toback? What a wonderful time that was. Yes, that ignorance sure was bliss, but since early last week, we’ve heard story after story about Toback, the man behind films like Two Girls and a Guy, The Pick-Up Artist, and Bugsy. And those stories were just completely horrific . At this point, over 300 women in the industry, including very famous actresses like Rachel McAdams and Selma Blair, have come forward with claims that Toback sexually assaulted them, or attempted to assault them. Just think about that for a moment: over 300 women, all with a story to tell about this guy. Selma Blair said that she met with Toback when her career was just starting to take off, and that he requested she come to his hotel room to discuss a possible role in one of his movies, Harvard Man. After a bit of conversation, he asked her to perform a monologue naked, and, being intimidated and scared, she agreed. He touched himself while she did the monologue, then asked her to sleep with him. She refused and tried to leave the room, but he blocked her way and threatened her until she allowed him to hump her leg — something he greatly enjoys doing, based on the other women’s stories. Actresses Ambika Leigh and Sari Kamin, two of the first people to come forward with their accusations, claimed that he set up professional meetings with them that soon turned sexual and that ended with him humping their legs. So how is Toback dealing with all this? Is he simply laying low, hoping everything blows over? Did he pull a Harvey Weinstein and fly off to a rehab/resort for a week? Nope, it turns out that he’s just going the “be nasty and cruel in a vulgar public statement” route. In an interview published by Rolling Stone, Toback was asked about the recent allegations during a phone call, and he denied everything in spectacular fashion. “Lemme be really clear about this,” he said. “I don’t want to get a pat on the back, but I’ve struggled seriously to make movies with very little money, that I write, that I direct, that mean my life to me.” “The idea that I would offer a part to anyone for any other reason than that he or she was gonna be the best of anyone I could find is so disgusting to me,” he continued. “And anyone who says it is a lying c–ksucker or c–t or both. Can I be any clearer than that? … Anyone who says that, I just want to spit in his or her f-cking face.” “By the way,” he added, “no one who’s ever worked with me would ever say anything like that. No one.” Then he bizarrely mentioned that Sienna Miller, the star of his latest movie, was sitting right next to him. She spoke with the reporter for moment in an off-the-record conversation — no public defense from her — then Toback took back the phone. “No, seriously, I find it offensive and insulting and disgusting, that people …” he trailed off. “Because it’s the opposite of the way I work. I don’t give my best friends parts unless they deserve them. Ever.” Which is a weird thing to say, because that’s not exactly what he’s being accused of. These hundreds of women didn’t all go on to star in his movies, you know? The interviewer pointed that out, that he’s mostly being accused of discussing work with women before getting them in a private setting and humping their legs. Toback responded to that by asking the reporter to give him one name, and he did — Ambika Leigh’s name. He said that Ambika’s story “is a total lie,” and that he never even heard of her before, “and believe me, I would remember it, because it’s a very unusual name.” “This is just too stupid,” he went on. “I mean, these are people I don’t know, and it’s things I never would have done. And it’s just not worth talking about. It’s idiotic.” He said that these women “hear each other. And they gang up … It’s all, you know, me too, me too, me too, me too, me too.” “Anyway, it’s too stupid to waste time on. It really is. It doesn’t have anything to do with my life in any way. It never has. I work seriously with complete integrity.” He went on to call the allegations “too stupid to dignify,” “pathetic lies,” and “too f-cking embarrassing and idiotic.” Another interesting layer to this conversation? The reporter’s own wife had a story about Toback — when she was in high school, he tried to discuss a movie with her before turning the conversation to her pubic hair. It’s just wild, because it’s like this jackass sincerely believes that we’ll buy all this, that hundreds of women just decided to “gang up” and make up tales about how he humped their legs.

There’s the occasional Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby , but it’s not normal for this many people to accuse you of these very specific things if there’s no truth at all in those accusations. Also, if your response to many, many people accusing you of doing horrific things is to call them “lying c–ksuckers and c–ts” … is there any hope left at all for humanity?
Kathy Griffin has some things to say. And, as you’ll see, that’s actually a massive, massive understatement. Back in May, as you’ll surely remember, Kathy did a photo shoot in which she held the decapitated head of Donald Trump — a Halloween mask covered in ketchup. It caused quite a stir: she was fired from multiple gigs, and she was even the subject of a federal investigation. Shortly after sharing the photo, she apologized , explaining that sometimes with comedy, lines can be crossed, and this was one of those times. But in the months since, she’s retracted her apology because “The whole thing got so blown out of proportion.” She said that the photo didn’t only cost her jobs, but friends began turning against her, she and her family started getting death threats. And now, five months later, she’s still dealing with the backlash. Earlier this week, it was announced that Andy Cohen would be replacing Kathy on CNN’s New Year’s Eve special, and when Andy was asked about it by TMZ, he replied with “Who? I don’t know her.” Meaning that he didn’t know Kathy — you know that classic Mariah Carey move. Except that Andy and Kathy definitely know each other, since she had a show on Bravo for years. She addressed that in a pointed tweet. “Even when it’s on tape, there are doubters?” she wrote. “He is NOT kidding w paps. Was my boss for 10 years. Treated me like a dog. Deeply misogynistic.” She was so upset by Andy’s words that she did a 17 minute video in which she went after him, TMZ boss Harvey Levin, and all the people she’s ever interacted with in her career that did her dirty. She kicks the video off by explaining that the fallout from the Trump photo is still going on , and it’s actually gotten worse. To prove that, she shares a voicemail she’d gotten from Harvey — he asked her to call him back for a chat and left his phone number, which she doesn’t disguise at all in the video. The reason for releasing his phone number, she says, is because after the Trump photo was released, she was doxxed mercilessly — and she feels that since Harvey is “in bed with everybody from Hollywood to Donald Trump,” he deserves similar treatment. From there, she jumps on to Andy Cohen, who she says was a “miserable boss” during her years at Bravo. She mocks him a bit for being an executive who then gave himself his own talk show — “seems to get picked up every season,” she joked. After that, Kathy jumps back to Harvey for a moment — she seems a little scatterbrained throughout the video, honestly, but we can’t really blame her. She claims that Tyler Shields, the photographer who took the photo, told her that two different people from TMZ told him that Harvey speaks with Trump multiple times a week. “Is that OK with you guys?” she asks. “The president talking to a gossip blogger?” Back to Andy, Kathy alleges that the two times she appeared on Watch What Happens Live, he offered her cocaine before filming began. So there’s that. About TMZ, she says that the website itself is extremely misogynistic, and that ageism is a big problem, too. “Harvey Levin, have you ever done anything honorable, ever?” she asks. “What do you do besides tear women down and make a bunch of money?” She actually refers to him as “the gay male version of Kellyanne Conway.” All throughout the video, she names people — not famous people, just people she’s worked with in the industry — who she feels let her down in some way. After all this, at the end of the video, she explains that she recorded it in the first place because she’s currently on a world tour, and she’s leaving Australia soon for Singapore. She’s been advised that she’s on multiple international lists, and that she’s been detained at every airport she’s been to in recent months. “So when I go to Singapore, if I just don’t return, I just want you guys to know, that’s why. Because I took a picture of a mask with ketchup on it.” Thoughts?
Caitlyn Jenner has achieved a personal milestone. She’s accomplished something the reality star never thought she would accomplish. She’s walked down the beach in a bathing suit. Not just any bathing suit, of course. Or not a men’s bathing suit, we should emphasize for accuracy. Instead, the transgender icon has shared a picture on Instagram of herself walking down the beach in Cabo San Lucas, wearing only woman’s swimwear. “40 years ago my therapist asked me what my fantasy is,” Jenner wrote as the caption, adding as a tease and an answer: “I told her walking on the beach being my authentic self and…” And here she is: It’s been quite a journey for Jenner to reach this point in her life, of course. She struggled for decades as a man, remaining deep in the closet and hiding her true self from the public. But that finally changed in April of 2015 when Jenner sat down with Diane Sawyer and opened up about how she felt like she was meant to be a female. This explains the Instagram video Caitlyn posted in which she’s rocking the aforementioned plunging one-piece swimsuit and a wide-brimmed hat. As she gets closer to the camera, she takes off her hat and proudly declares “Free!” as she twirls around while the waves crash ashore. It’s pretty great. In January of this year, Jenner underwent gender reassignment surgery . “The surgery was a success, and I feel not only wonderful but liberated,” Caitlyn writes in the memoir, referred to the decision to undergo the surgery as “complex.” She adds in the book, which basically ruined her relationship with many members of her family, that she had grown tired of answering questions about when she would have this procedure done. “I am telling you because I believe in candor,” she says. “So all of you can stop staring. You want to know, so now you know. Which is why this is the first time, and the last time, I will ever speak of it.” In a subsequent interview with Larry King, however, Jenner made it clear that not all transgender individuals undergo this surgery. And that’s okay. “What’s between your legs doesn’t define who you are,” she said. View Slideshow: Caitlyn Jenner: Read the 19 Most Stunning Quotes From Her Memoir
