Michael J. Fox Dead? Morbid Hoax Stuns Social Media

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If you spent any time on Facebook or Twitter yesterday, then you might have encountered reports of the passing of actor Michael J. Fox. The rumor was so pervasive that Fox’s name quickly became a worldwide trending topic. Fortunately, fans can breathe easy, as Fox is not dead, but is instead the latest victim of an obnoxious celebrity death hoax. Reps for Fox have confirmed that the 57-year-old actor is alive and well, and was just as confused about the apparent prank as anyone else. Usually, the origin of such nonsense remains mysterious, but this time it looks as though the culprit has been identified. According to the internet’s sharpest sleuths, news of Fox’s passing originated on a website that was designed to trick users into thinking they had visited Yahoo! News. A report at the top of the site’s homepage reads as follows:  “On August 2, Michael J. Fox arrived at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was self-admitted with complications attributed to Parkinson’s Disease. According to Chief Coroner Jonathan Lucas M.D., Fox had developed pneumonia, a common problem occurring in Parkinson’s sufferers in the later stages of the disease.” “Tragically, Fox died at 11:24 this morning. Doctors confirmed Fox passed away peacefully and was surrounded by friends and family.” While it’s true that Fox has been battling Parkinson’s Disease for much of his life, the rest of the report is a complete fabrication. It seems that the hoax spread further and faster than most due to the fact that Fox has been silent on social media in recent weeks. The photo above, which Fox tweeted on June 1 in support of gun violence victims, constitutes his most recent social media activity. “It’s made me stronger,” Fox once said of his diagnosis. “A million times wiser. And more compassionate, I’ve realized I’m vulnerable, that no matter how many awards I’m given or how big my bank account is, I can be messed with like that. “The end of the story is you die. We all die. So, accepting that, the issue becomes one of quality of life.” Hopefully, Fox’s story won’t come to an end for many years. View Slideshow: 25 Times the Internet Killed Off a Celebrity

Demi Lovato in Rehab: What Do We Know?

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Thanks to her first official statement since nearly dying from a drug overdose, fans now know what Demi Lovato is thinking. But these same fans do not know where Demi Lovato actually is at the moment. And that may not change any time soon. According to multiple outlets, the troubled artist has left Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles and is on her way to a treatment center. Not even the sleuths at TMZ have figured out Demi’s exact location, however, except to confirm that she will be in rehab someplace located a distance from California. Aside from getting the star all the professional helps she needs, part of the basis for this move is to also get Lovato far away from some of the bad influences that had overtaken her life in the weeks leading up to her overdose. As previously reported, these toxic friends were never really friends at all. They didn’t push Lovato to overcome her dark side and her dangerous impulses; they encouraged these sides and impulses to come out. As a result, Lovato spent most of the night partying to weeks ago, only to be found hours later in a state of unconsciousness. An assistant called 911 and paramedics arrived just in time to save the singer’s life. TMZ writes that Lovato flew via private plans to a rehab center that an insider describes as “one of the nation’s leading facilities for addiction.” By our estimation, this will be Lovato’s third time receiving professional treatment in such a manner — and we just pray, as cliche as it sounds, that this third time in the charm. Per Radar Online, meanwhile, Demi will remain at her rehab center for a minimum of three months. She is reportedly set to take this treatment seriously, despite having previously scoffed at suggestions from those close to her over the past several weeks that she needs help. It took the star being rushed to the hospital in order for her to see their point. “She is scheduled to stay for 90 days,” a source tells Radar simply. This same source says that Lovato is not being held against her will. This is not a case of an involuntary psychiatric hold, known as a Sectio 5150, which means that Demi will be free to check herself out of rehab at any time. “Demi left the hospital over the weekend. She will get continued care at an in-patient rehab facility,” reports People Magazine, adding: “At the hospital, she was surrounded by family and friends that support her sobriety. They all want Demi to be the best she can. Demi is surrounded by a lot of love. She has people in her life that really care. “She has a long journey ahead, but with all the love, her journey could absolutely be a positive one.” Lovato was sober for six years prior to this relapse. She talked openly during that time about her previous hardcore drug use, her self-esteem issues, her eating disorder and even the suicidal thoughts she had at seven years old . We’ve always admired the singer for her honesty and for her mission to help other teens and/or young women experiencing anything close to what she experienced. The superstar posted an emotional note on Instagram yesterday, which marked the first words to come directly from Lovato since her hospitalization. This message included the following: I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction. What I’ve learned is that this illness is not something that disappears or fades with time. It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet. I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time. I want to thank my family, my team, and the staff at Cedars-Sinai who have been by my side this entire time. Without them I wouldn’t be here writing this letter to all of you.

Kendall Jenner Accused of Fleeing the Scene After Her Dog Bit a Child

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kendall Jenner has come under fire after leaving a restaurant … after a woman accused Kendall’s dog of allegedly biting a small child. Oh no! That is, for the record, much worse than her boyfriend Blake’s ex scoring a major child-support win . The case has been referred to animal control, but Kendall is implying that the world doesn’t know the whole story. TMZ reports that Kendall Jenner had the police called on her over an alleged dog bite over the weekend. According to reports, Kendall and her hunky boyfriend Blake Griffin stopped by the Beverly Glen Deli in L.A. They ate on the patio of the restaurant. While they were there, there was allegedly (and this is disputed) and incident in which Kendall’s doberman pinscher “bit” a young girl. That’s a scary situation! There are a couple of things that people should note. First of all, Kendall’s dog was reportedly harnessed during this, so we probably shouldn’t be imagining her letting her furbaby wander here and there. Second of all, the alleged bite — even when first reported — did not leave any detectable puncture wounds. According to reports, since the restaurant itself was unable to find a clear indicator of an injury, they gave the child some ice. The mother claimed that Kendall and Blake simply paid their bill and left instead of addressing it with her, which is apparently why she elected to dial 9-1-1 over the incident. On Monday, however, TMZ updated the story. According to sources close to Kendall, she didn’t leave until she made absolutely sure that the “dog bite” had not resulted in any injuries. Only when she was sure that everything was okay did she and Griffin hit the road. We don’t know exactly what happened, of course, but the insider says that the dog was startled by the small child. Whatever did happen, TMZ says that their source reports that the dog did not bite the girl and may have not even touched her. As to what did go down … well, Kendall can’t comment just yet. A writer and editor linked to a Cosmopolitan article about the incident, and wrote some very inflammatory words on Tiwtter. “Add this to the growing list of reasons why @KendallJenner is a disturbingly despicable, entitled, unsympathetic, sadistic, uncharitable and self-absorbed human being,” the tweet reads. The tweet goes on to describe Kendall as someone “who doesn’t deserve to be idolized. (Yes, I went there.)” Kendall saw that tweet, and quoted it with a very gentle reply. “Oof i’m sorry you feel that way,” Kendall writes. “Hope to meet you one day to show you the real me,” Kendall continues. “Maybe i’ll tell you a little bit about the story too,” Kendall concludes, adding: “God bless.” She followed those words with the emoji of two hands with their palms touching. Some may believe that Kendall is lying and that her dog bit a child — even if there are no visible injuries. Others may believe that this mother saw an opportunity to try to get some money out of one of a famous and wealthy family. We would suggest that there may be a middle ground. If a child approached Kendall’s dog in a startling way and the dog barked or snapped in alarm, the child may have been scared and the mother may have overreacted. But we still don’t know all of the facts. Perhaps there are other witnesses or, better yet, security footage. View Slideshow: Kendall Jenner Shoots Down Gay Rumors… and More!

The Bachelorette Finale Recap: Who Did Becca Kufrin Choose?

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Bachelorette just aired an iconic 14th season finale, and we can confirm what The Bachelorette spoilers foretold months ago: Becca Kufrin is engaged!! But to whom? Viewers have waited all summer (whether you read  Bachelorette spoilers  or not) to see how this thing ends for beautiful, sweet Becca. For Garrett Yrigoyen and Blake Horstmann, this is what they’ve fought for: To be the last man standing, holding a Neil Lane ring. After what was, by and large, a fairly conventional season, might an epic twist still be in the works, After the Final Rose style? To channel our inner Chris Harrison for a moment … this was NOT the most anticipated, controversial finale in Bachelorette history. But it wasn’t half bad. The beautiful Minnesotan spent 11 weeks paring down 25 suitors to just two. The two handsome men standing before her this evening. So would she give the final rose to Garrett Yrigoyen, the once-divorced, instant frontrunner with the shady Instagram history? Or would it go to Blake Horstmann, who has emerged as the dark Horst (sorry) over the past couple of episodes especially? Both gentlemen met her family as Becca struggled with what could be the most difficult, consequential decision of her life. Who does she see a brighter future with – and can she trust that person with her heart, especially after what happened with Arie? So which guy got the rose? And Becca said all along that she got engaged, but has it lasted? Is she still engaged right now? Man alive, The Bachelorette producers sure can cut a slick finale, keeping us guessing and methodically ratcheting up the drama. In the end, though, they can only do their best with the material Becca gives them, and there was no major shocker in store: Becca Kufrin is engaged to Garrett Yrigoven. Yes, the first impression rose recipient many weeks ago is now Becca’s fiance, having proposed (she said yes) at the end of the night. That doesn’t mean he was a lock, though. The finale focused hardcore on Becca’s “second thoughts” (again, those producers are good) and Blake really bringing his A-game. Maybe it was editing, or maybe it was just his feelings and their chemistry peaking at the right time, but Horstmann made it a contest. Just when you thought no one could match Garrett’s connection with Becca – and Becca’s family – Blake came awfully darn close. His final date, capped off by that amazing scrapbook, seemed to push Becca over the edge … or at least right up to the edge. Not unlike his competition, he started to look like a 50-50 partner, the kind she’s been dreaming of, and hoping he would be. As such, she was 50-50 when it came to the two guys, or so it seemed. Sadly, there could be only one, and Blake lost out. Rough. Holy cow that was … wow. That’s all we can say about that Blake breakup. Yeesh. It’s never easy to watch that sort of thing, but this one was super bad. He got through that whole speech and everything. She just stood there, Gone are the days when the show lets them off easy, apparently. Say what you will about reality shows, the pain on Blake’s face was pretty real, and Becca’s too for that matter. That was just painful. Guy was legit trembling out there. Even on the LIVE After the Final Rose special, it wasn’t much better. From the look on Blake’s face, you would think it had just happened. That’s love. That’s love. When Kufrin took the stage to see Horstmann FOR THE FIRST TIME since they split, both had nothing but kind words for the other. As Chris said, Blake has a LOT of fans in the house tonight. If he’s NOT The Bachelor next winter, that would be a surprise. Or at least a letdown. Speaking of a letdown … could the actual proposal from Garrett and the aftermath possibly match that level of emotion? Close. Very, very close. That was as sweet and cheesy (in a good way) as it gets, as Yrigoyen and Kufrin left the Maldives blissfully engaged. Now for the hard part … View Slideshow: Garrett Yrigoyen: Bachelorette Suitor’s Bigoted Social Media History EXPOSED

Tyler, The Creator Keeps It Real About Wanting To Be Played On The Radio

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Courtesy of Converse / Courtesy of Converse If anyone in the industry keeps it real, it’s Tyler, The Creator . And beyond his blunt realness, he’s also known to be quite the perfectionist with his music–so it should come as no surprised that he’s analyzed everything right down to the sound of his voice. In an interview with  GQ ,  the California native admits that he doesn’t think his voice fits in with the sound of  mainstream music. Tyler’s explanation comes in response to a question about why isn’t he bigger on the radio. He delves into his idea, explaining: “I hate my voice and I think—it’s not a full thought or theory yet—but I think there are certain voices that can make it into a mainstream world because of the tone that they’re in,” he breaks down. “People like Jay , ‘Ye , Drake , you know, Kenny [ Kendrick Lamar ]. It’s a world that their voice lives in. It’s not too high and squeaky, and it’s not too low and bassy, it’s not too abrasive and raspy.” Though The Creator doesn’t think his voice particularly fits into the world of mainstream music, he still wants to understand what makes those voices “work,” and how he can join in on the fun. “I’m still trying to figure out the science behind it. When I do, I’ll let you know, but I definitely don’t have that voice. And I f**king wish that I did” he says. Going back to one of the artists he mentions above, Tyler talks about his longtime idol and reveals the fact that he really did cry to a song off of Kanye’s new album Ye. He goes into detail about the track “Violent Crimes” and explains why it made him cry saying, “I always talk about chords and probably sound like a f**king dork, but since I was f**king 4 years old. I would always say it was a slant or it went up, ’cause I didn’t know what chords were, but it was a thing that music did that I just felt in my f**king body.”

Bye Wig!!! NeNe Leakes Blasts A Messy Miserable Who Says She Looks ‘Unnatural’

Posted on August 6, 2018 by admin2| Leave a comment

Charles Sykes/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images BLOOOOOOP! NeNe Leakes Blasts Fan In Instagram Comment NeNe Leakes is always known to clap back at her fellow housewives and fans alike, and she’s once again going in. NeNe recently went head to head with a fan who told her she looked “unnatural.” “I like you but I gotta be honest with you…you look fake…looking natural is the ultimate beauty,” said a fan. That apparently spurned some shade from NeNe, who told the follower that she’s only striving to please herself. Oh, and her “hater” has a lot of chin fat. Now that’s so nasty and so rude. “Looking and feeling the way you want too is the ultimate goal! It’s about what makes me happy, not you boo!—-you have a lot of chin fat.” If you think NeNe looks “unnatural”, it may be because she really is admittedly knifed up. Back in 2016 NeNe admitted on “Watch What Happens Live” to having a second nose job, but just for medical purposes. “It was a real medical reason why I had to get it done again,” said NeNe. “My cartilage was growing in my nose and my tip was touching my lip when I smile. I didn’t get a full rhinoplasty the first time, I only had my nostrils taken in.” In 2010 NeNe admitted to PEOPLE magazine that she had several plastic surgeries in between RHOA seasons. NeNe admitted to a nose job, a breast reduction, a breast lift and liposuction around her waist. Either way, NeNe’s happy with her look. See NeNe clap back at ANOTHER fan over plastic surgery on the flip.
