Paul Prudhomme Dies; Celebrity Chef Was 75

Paul Prudhomme – the famed chef best known for his various PBS cooking shows and national landmark New Orleans restaurant –  has passed away at the age of 75. Prudhomme is widely credited with popularizing New Orleans-style cuisine nationwide, and some even say he’s the man most responsible for the foodie trend that’s given us everything from more exotic menu options to celebrity chefs such as Anthony Bourdain and Alton Brown. “Paul was the one who not only put Louisiana food…Cajun and Creole food, on the map, but he was also the one who started the American food revolution that flourishes today,” Louisiana chef and radio show host Poppie Tooker said today. When Prudhomme was named executive chef of the legendary New Orleans restaurant Commander’s Palace in 1975, restaurants nationwide took it as a sign that upscale establishments no longer needed a French chef at the helm in order to be taken seriously. Prudhomme went on to introduce dishes like the turducken and blackened redfish to amateur American chefs. The latter became so popular that limits had to be imposed in order to keep the redfish from going extinct. His tremendous influence is currently evident on Twitter, where professional and amateur chefs, restauranteurs and fans of good food the world over are paying tribute to the man brought the flavors of New Orleans to kitchens across the globe.

Kim Kardashian: Ready to End Feud With Amber Rose?

The epic feud between Kim Kardashian and Amber Rose dates back to 2012 , when Kim began dating Kanye West, not long after the rapper parted ways with Amber. It was a cold war of sorts for the first few years, with the ladies quietly disliking each other and reportedly talking trash to friends. Things heated up in February, when Kanye trashed Amber in a radio interview, claiming that he needed to take “30 showers” after he dated her, just so that Kim would give him the time of day.  It was an ugly comment and things predictably escalated from there, with both sides taking public shots at one another. It all came to a head over the weekend when Amber hosted a “slut walk” event in Los Angeles. At one point, she took the stage and tearfully described the feeling of being publicly shamed by a man that she had once loved. Now, Radar Online reports that Kim was moved by the speech and hopes to bury the hatchet with Amber. “Kim really thought that this was a huge step forward because Amber did not use her platform to slam her,” said one insider. Of course, this is Kim we’re talking about, so there was a PR consideration, as well: “Now that the Kardashians see how much a huge fan base Amber Rose has, they have all kind of changed their tune,” says the source.  “They know that Amber knows so much about them and their family and it is just at the point now where the Kardashians are ready to call a truce.” There you have it. If you want to end a feud with Kim Kardashian, just tell your side of the story in heartfelt fashion – and make sure you have enough fans that she feels threatened.

Kourtney Kardashian Thanks Fans For Love After Latest Tear-Jerking KUWTK Trailer

Keeping Up with the Kardashians fans are finally getting to see Kourtney Kardashian’s reaction to the scandal that ended things with Scott Disick. It was not a pretty scene, but the 36-year-old mother of three says she’s grateful for our reaction to the trailers and promos airing on E! Keeping Up with the Kardashians Promo: The End of Kourtney and Scott! If you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online , you’ve likely seen the trailer for next week’s episode teasing “the end of Kourtney and Scott.” “I’ve worked so hard to keep this family together,” Kourtney tells concerned sister Kim Kardashian. “I’m on the verge of a mental breakdown.” As was the case when this was shown briefly in the Keeping Up with the Kardashians trailer , fans quickly reached out to Kourtney online. One follower wrote, “I hate when @kourtneykardash cries I seriously die inside,” to which she replied, “love you,” with a broken heart emoji. She then penned a sincere tweet to her 16 million followers, writing that the fan support has meant so much in the wake of the breakup: “Reading your tweets and I need you guys to know how truly touched I am by your love. I love you guys. You help me more than you know.” In early July, Disick was caught canoodling with Chloe Bartoli ; Kourtney kicked him out of their house and ended their nine-year romance. Watching a grown woman cry about her terrible partner is a sobering experience regardless of the circumstances, even for a reality star. If the raw emotion doesn’t make you feel sympathy, or empathy, for Kourtney in this case, you might want to check yourself for a pulse. Fortunately, though … she’s bounced back extremely well: View Slideshow: 19 Photos of Kourtney Kardashian Showing Scott Disick What He’s Missing

Courtney Stodden & Doug Hutchison to Renew Vows (Now That She’s an Adult)

In a recent interview, Courtney Stodden’s mother said that she regrets allowing her daughter to marry Doug Hutchison at the age of 16. Yet here they are, head over heels in love, five years later! Who knew?! Despite some predictable bumps in the road, the 55-year-old actor and 21-year-old ” solo sex tape ” star are going surprisingly strong. In fact, Courtney recently confirmed to Us Weekly that she and Doug are planning to renew their vows in a “glamorous” second wedding ceremony! The puzzling pair never divorced, but their hard times did include a period of separation, during which Courtney slept with other men . All water under the bridge now, though, as they look toward the future! “We’re still in planning mode,” said Stodden at a recent PETA fundraiser. “I can finally [plan] it myself, you know, because I was 16.” “[Then] I had to have it signed [by my parents], so I think finally not having any parents involved and just doing it myself is going to be great.” “I want to do a big thing, because, you know, our first time around we married in Las Vegas next to a Chevron – it was not that glamorous!” “So I really want to play it up. I want to do the whole Cinderella thing.” Courtney added that she plans to wear a mermaid dress to walk down the aisle and that the ceremony will have “kind of an old Hollywood look.” Yeesh, another Cinderella/mermaid/old Hollywood wedding? We kid. C’mon Courtney … we know you’re caught up in the moment and everything, but part of being an adult is picking one theme and sticking with it. We know you weren’t on the prom planning committee because you were busy being married to your middle-aged acting coach, but you can’t make up for it now with some nutso Disney-under-the-sea-Bogey-and-Bacall clusterf-ck! Sorry. We’re sure it’ll be lovely. Enjoy. View Slideshow: 23 Couples With Big Age Differences

But those who watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online next week will bear witness to Kim admitting that she sort of wants one now. Keeping Up With the Kardashians Klip: Kim Gushes Over Caitlyn’s Boobs Why? Because she just saw Caitlyn Jenner topless! This sneak peek opens with Kim telling Khloe Kardashian that she just came from watching Caitlyn’s Vanity Fair shoot , the pictorial that officially announced Caitlyn as… well… Caitlyn. “I went into the closet and she went to change and she was like, ‘You can stay in,’ and took off top and had no bra,” Kim explains to her sister of what recently transpired. “Her boobs were like Kourtney’s like when she first got hers done. Like, it made me want a boob job. Like, the best boobs.” ( Side note : Wait… Kourtney Kardashian had a boob job?!? Was this public knowledge?) A stunned Khloe then asks to back the conversation up a bit, asking to confirm that her stepfather now has “full implants.” Yup, replies Kim, “like a C” cup. Wow. Interesting. And also impressive. Guess we can now go in and add Caitlyn Jenner to the following gallery of celebrity bra sizes, huh? View Slideshow: Celebrity Bra Sizes: Who’s Busting Out?!?

One Direction Fans Mourn #6MonthsWithoutZayn

It may be Friday, and folks around the nation may be enjoying a few rays of sunshine before the weather turns cold, and the Pope may be gracing America with his presence. But this is still a tragic day for millions of young men and women around the globe. Okay, mostly millions of women around the globe. But the point still remains: Zayn Malik quit One Direction on March 25, 2015. That’s six months ago today. As a result, the hashtag “#6MonthsWithoutZayn” has been trending worldwide on Twitter, with one user summing up most people’s feelings by writing of One Direction at the moment. “4 in our eyes. But 5 in our hearts.” How true, right? Another 1Der Tweeted “Still waiting for you to come home even though I know that you won’t change your mind,” while another simply wrote: “I’m emotional.” We all are, especially due to how crazy everything has been since Zayn left. Malik has since split from fiancee Perrie Edwards. He’s also signed a solo record deal, saying he left One Direction to make real music . OUCH. One Direction, meanwhile, has announced the release date of its next album (November 13). But it’s also made a far more heartbreaking announcement: the group will take an extended hiatus in 2016 . If the boy band never reunites, the outcry from Twitter may very well take down the entire social media universe.

Kim Zolciak: Still Hospitalized Following Stroke

Yesterday, we reported that Kim Zolciak suffered a stroke . She shared the frightening news with fans via an Instagram caption posted alongside a photo of the reality star lying in a hospital bed. Kim revealed that she suffered a transient ischemic attack (commonly referred to as a “mini stroke”) just minutes after flying home from a Dancing With the Stars rehearsal. It’s unclear how serious her condition is, but we now know that Kim is still hospitalized. The 37-year-old mother of six posted the above photo this morning along with a caption reassuring fans that she’s on the mend. “Going in for one more procedure, things are looking up! don’t let the oxygen scare you its just protocol,” Kim wrote. “I wanted THANK all of you for the love!” “I feel so overwhelmed with all the texts, comments etc. I’m so grateful to have all of you! #TheyDontCallMeToughieForNothing” It’s unlikely that Kim will return to Dancing With the Stars this season, but she revealed on Instagram that her dancing partner Tony Dovolani has been by her side for two days straight. Kim says she expected to be out of the hospital by now, but it seems doctors aren’t taking any chances. At one point, Kim was unable to speak and lost all feeling on the left side of her body. She says she’s now feeling better and is eager to complete her recovery at home. View Slideshow: Kim Zolciak Body Selfies
