It’s been about four months since Jinger Duggar moved to LA , and it seems the city is beginning to leave its mark on the most rebellious Duggar daughter. Fashion has always been one of Jinger’s preferred modes of expression — she is, after all, the first Duggar woman of her generation to wear pants in public — and it seems she’s keeping the tradition alive by splurging on expensive threads. Several fans have noted that the always-stylish Jinger seems to be forever finding new fashion inspirations on the West Coast. And this week, she made what many consider to be her boldest fashion statement since she first donned a pair of Levi’s in violation of the strict Duggar dress code . Jinger posted the photo below earlier this week, and it’s attracted attention for two distinct reasons. For starters, this is the pic that clued fans into the fact that Jana is currently visiting Jinger in LA . (Jana posted a similar coffee-gram with the same tiled floor in the background, and fans instantly pieced it together because Duggar obsessives are a different breed.) But the biggest commotion had to do with the fact Jinger is rocking some seriously stylish shoes. There’s been no confirmation with regard to the designer, but fans seem convinced that Jinge is sporting a pair of Guccis. “Those look like Gucci shoes. Priiiiceey!!!” one follower commented. “I have Gucci shoes like these. I love them,” another remarked. Many fans praised Jinge for treating herself, living her best life, etc., with one commenting simply, “Good for you!” Now, if the masses are correct and Jinger is dressing her feet in Gucci, then she probably dropped nearly a thousand dollars in order to do so. So yeah, priiiiceey! is right. But Jinger might suffer consequences for her the purchase that go well beyond her monthly credit card statement. As you probably know, the Duggars are advocates for ” modest attire .” Typically, this means women covering just about every inch of their skin aside from their faces and hands. But the family is also not big on lavish displays of wealth. It’s an ironic stance, considering Jim Bob has devoted his life to the acquisition of wealth, but that’s how it is. Jim Bob makes the rules and his daughters follow them — and one of the rules at the moment is “dress like you’re poor.” There have already been rumors that Jim Bob and Michelle have disowned Jinger , though to be fair, those reports seem to be based on nothing other than the fact that they have yet to visit her in LA. It may not seem like much, but considering how much time and money the Duggars have to devote to their family, it’s a pretty big snub. And we’re guessing Jim Bob isn’t particularly thrilled with his daughter’s newfound taste for the finer things.

Tori Roloff has thus far managed to pull off the near-impossible. She’s reached impressive heights of popularity (over one million Instagram followers!) without ever really being involved in a controversy. Really, think about it… it’s true. You need to search far and wide and try really hard to track down any sort of scandalous situation centered on the Little People, Big World cast member. One time a few trolls tried to mom-shame Tori because they thought her son wasn’t wearing a life jacket out on the water — but they were quickly proven wrong . Now, however, some folks think they’ve done it. They think they’ve tracked it down. They think they’ve come across a photo that is legitimately damaging to the reality, from which they think she’ll never recover. Indeed, they think they’ve caught TORI ROLOFF DRINKING WHILE PREGNANT. And they think this because they only took a quick glance at the Instagram photo below: Here’s the thing, however: Tori may be expecting. And she may be sucking down a beverage in this snapshot. But there’s no alcohol in it. The TLC personality shared this photo on Tuesday, but immediately shut down her potential critics and haters while doing so. “Mama drinks (hers is a mocktail, don’t worry),” wrote Tori as a caption to the image, putting an end to any sort of controversy before it can even begin. Seriously: she’s good, isn’t she? In late June, Roloff was forced to delete an Instgram post in which she wrote about her parenting philopshy after some of followers took issue with her thoughts on raising kids and spoiling them. “If you raise your kids, you get to spoil your grandkids,” the post began. “If you spoil your kids, you’ll end up raising your grandkids.” She continued at the time: “Just a thought. I really think my generation has made it more important to be their kids’ best friend and not help guide and support their kids with boundaries and structure. “I know we’re all doing the best we can, but disciplining kiddos is essential to becoming a good citizen, not a taboo. Spoil with love.” Yes, for someone as sweet and innocent as Tori Roloff, this qualified as polarizing. Tori and husband Zach confirmed in mid-May that son Jackson was on the verge of getting a sibling. They also confirmed the gender of this sibling and the time around which she is expected to arrive. “We are so excited to announce that Jackson is going to be a big brother! We can not wait to meet our sweet baby girl!” they said this spring. We’ve since learned that the baby is due around Thanksgiving. We cannot wait to meet her… and we cannot wait to stare at ridiculously adorable baby bump photos along the way.

Source: Westend61 / Getty A Black father in Oklahoma City was attempting to enjoy a day out at the pool with his children earlier in the month when a white man began attacking him, prompting the father to deliver a fade . When the attacker returned with a baseball bat after getting knocked out, a second fade was promptly administered. Local outlet News 9 reports: Witnesses and police said 28-year-old Joshua Valentine targeted a black man, who was at the swimming pool to watch his kids. Police said Valentine verbally then physically attacked the victim with a closed fist. The victim, however, turned the tables on Valentine, and knocked him out. When Valentine awoke a few minutes later, he left the pool area, then returned with a baseball bat. Police and witnesses said he swung at the victim, who not only fended Valentine off with a chair, the victim then struck Valentine several times with his fist, knocking Valentine out a second time. The outlet adds that Valentine spent six days in jail on charges of malicious harassment based on race. https://KWTV.images.worldnow.com/interface/js/WNVideo.js?rnd=558086770;hostDomain=www.news9.com;playerWidth=640;playerHeight=360;isShowIcon=true;clipId=14877512;flvUri=;partnerclipid=;adTag=News;advertisingZone=;enableAds=true;landingPage=;islandingPageoverride=;playerType=STANDARD_EMBEDDEDscript;controlsType=overlay News9.com – Oklahoma City, OK – News, Weather, Video and Sports | — Photo: Getty
Source: Robin L Marshall / Getty Tonight’s episode of Basketball Wives finds us still in San Diego. Evelyn and Jennifer are finally friends again, but more beef lurks elsewhere, of course. Malaysia is annoyed that Evelyn and Jenn made up because she still doesn’t rock with Jenn. She didn’t think Evelyn would go for it, but she did so now Malaysia feels like she’s the only person left who hasn’t been fooled by Jenn. Other people in the group think it’s time to get Malaysia and Jenn together to talk, other people is Jackie. However, if you recall, we last left Malaysia and Jenn’s relationship in shambles after Malaysia threw a table at Jenn because she felt like Jenn tried to use her to spread malicious rumors about Evelyn and her daughter. Forgiveness from Malaysia probably isn’t happening any time soon but she does plan to apologize to Jenn for throwing a table at her. In other news, CeCe is preparing for her upcoming wedding, but Byron and his kids (including Kristen) still aren’t on the same page. There’s a chance that they might not show up to his wedding. However, Malaysia and Kristen still feel like they can work things out and be a happy family. We’ll see. It’s dinner time now the ponderosa begins. Everyone feels the need to tell OG how wrong she was for spilling the tea about Kristen’s husband and talking smack about her man, yatta yatta. Now, OG was wrong for volunteering that information. However, OG brought up a good point when she mentioned that Kristen said lots of nasty things about her and her relationship. In OG’s mind, they were at a war of words and now they’re even. This isn’t enough for the rest of these hyenas. They harp on OG being wrong and really think she should apologize to Kristen. Mind you, no one is saying anything to Kristen, who definitely isn’t innocent. Once again, OG makes a good point, which is that if Kristen doesn’t talk about her nasty then she won’t talk nasty about Kristen. Feby jumps into the mix and asks everyone to go downstairs to watch her new video. As everyone heads down, Jenn pulls OG aside and shows her a video of Feby talking smack about her, and then mentions how Feby told them she wrote a diss track about OG. Jenn is being messy, but she’s actually not wrong here. She just doesn’t want OG to be blindsided. OG wastes no time going straight to Feby to see what’s up. She asks Feby directly if she wrote a diss track about her. Feby completely punks out. She was all talk when she was telling Evelyn, Shaunie, and Malaysia, verbatim, that she wrote a diss track about OG. However, she tells OG that she just said she wrote some rhymes about people who wear fake clothes. Everyone who heard Feby say what she said is looking at Feby sideways but none of them really call her out on it. OG then tells Feby that she could deliver those Nigerian fists of fury and kill her with her bare hands but has decided to keep it cute. Now, if you’ve been watching this show for multiple seasons you know dang well there has been a lot of aggression. Nothing should be that surprising, but apparently, OG’s comment is enough to shock everyone. Like, they’re literally all pretending to be appalled by OG’s commentary. Shaunie even says that OG’s “aggression” is driving a wedge between her and everything else. So, all the times Tami attempted to beat the breaks off someone, all the time Evelyn has run across tables and also attempted to beat the breaks off someone, Jackie has actually fought and attempted to fight, Malaysia threw a dang table at Jenn, but OG, who has actually never attempted violence, simply speaking about violence while defending herself, is scaring them? Yeah, okay. What’s the difference between OG and all of the aforementioned women? Complexion. People in these Twitter streets, self-included, think this is colorism at play. Debate your mother! Anyway, here’s what the Tweets are saying: The colorism on this damn show is NOT ok, so Evelyn can act loud, scream and throw things..she’s not aggressive but OG is aggressive because she’s dark skin and they don’t find her attractive @ShaunieONeal your colorism is showing #basketballwives — Vanity Fair (@_exxotica) August 1, 2019 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js Colorism at its best…smh…I will not watch again. It really saddens me to see GROWN black women bully other black women. OG have taught women how to stand up for themselves fade and all — Nicolee T. Henderson (@nicolee0007) August 1, 2019 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js It’s absolutely colorism. OG hasn’t ever laid hand or thrown objects on anyone yet she’s all of a sudden super scary? FOH! https://t.co/oSEUCftiQ0 — Blocka Khan (@Starr_Rocque) August 1, 2019 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js Anyway, Feby’s punk arse continues to lie to OG and talk circles around the situation so this is uneventful, but they do show Feby’s video and OG is even classy enough to stay and watch it. It’s aight. She’s not the next hip-hop it girl, though. Now we’re back in San Diego. Cece and Byron meet up with OG for dinner. OG wants to clarify the things Malaysia said about CeCe and Byon feeding OG info to use as ammo, and whether they’re using her or not. Byron and Cece deny this, of course. Byron said OG has always been cool, and so has her man and that the drama isn’t his style. He just wants to move on. He then says that his conversation with Malaysia was about trying to repair the family. Mind you, Byron never said what Malaysia said he said, but OG wants to know where the ammunition stuff is coming from and asks directly. Byron said he never said that. OG is cool with his answer and that’s that for now. Byron and CeCe are coming across as really fake, but whatever. OG wouldn’t be in this situation if she had just minded her business, but I digress. Things will get worse in the upcoming episodes. There’s going to be another trip to Costa Rica, there will be more rumors started, some lie detector tests about who started what rumor and the old Jackie is definitely going to make an appearance too.

Earlier this week, a judge ruled that a Christian rapper’s copyright infringement case against Katy Perry could proceed to the trial stage. The rapper — who goes by the stage name Flame — claims that Perry’s 2013 hit “Dark Horse” is a ripoff of his song “Joyful Noise.” It’s a bit ironic, considering that title must have been used by about 40 bajiliion Christian recording artists before Flame came along, but that’s a conversation for another time. Now, you may be wondering what in the hell (pardon us, evangelical readers) all of this has to do with Jessa Duggar. Well, if you’re a fan of her family’s and you follow her husband on social media, then you might already be familiar with Flame, aka Marcus Grey. Grey is a longtime Duggar associate who was once interviewed by Jessa’s husband, Ben Seewald, on the topic of race relations in America. Ben Seewald on Racial Unrest (There was a time when Ben tried to fashion a career for himself as a media figure who asks the tough questions. The less said about that phase, the better.) “Flame has been doing Christian hip hop for many years now,” Ben told the camera. “I started listening to some of Flame’s music a little over a year ago. I really appreciated the content of his music. We actually became friends.” Ben goes on to explain that his wife later became friends with Flame, and the couple even introduced the rapper to their then-infant son, Spurgeon. “During this visit we want to kind of introduce Flame to life in the country as opposed to life in the city,” Ben said when Grey’s visit to their was captured by TLC cameras. For years now, the Duggars have been outspoken critics of secular pop culture, and they’re especially chagrinned by what they see as overly-sexualized music directed at younger audiences. In other words, they’re probably not very big Katy Perry fans. This, combined with the unusually heated nature of Flame’s court battle against Perry (The singer even offered to perform her song live in front of the judge to make her case.) has led to rumors that Katy and Jessa don’t like each other. However, while it seems very likely that Jessa dislikes Katy, it seems equally likely that Katy has no idea who Jessa is. Besides, both women have so much on their plates these days that new enemies are probably the last thing on their minds. Katy has enough feuds to keep her busy for the next few decades. Meanwhile, Jessa just welcomed her third child . So as entertaining as it would be if these two started taking shots at one another on Twitter, sadly, it’ll probably never happen.

Back in January, the Bachelor Nation was overjoyed to hear that Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert were expecting Baby #2 . Now, the happy couple has welcomed baby #2 — a beautiful newborn boy. But there’s a twist, because they never made it to the hospital, and Jade ended up giving bitrth at home … in the master bedroom’s closet. “I accidentally gave birth at home last night,” Jade revealed on Instagram on Tuesday. “In our master closet.” “I’ve been still processing the shock of this all,” she admitted. Jade clarified: “as this was not all at what I had planned.” “But,” she noted. “I am so so thankful for each person who helped bring our son into the world safely.” Along with her caption, Jade included a very candid photo from the scene. “I’ll share my whole birth story soon,” Jade promised her fans and followers. “But long story short,” she wrote. “My waters broke.” “And 75 minutes later,” Jade continued. “I gave birth to our healthy baby boy.” That is an exceptionall short labor! She wrote that she delivered her son “while clutching a bench in our closet.” “It was one of the scariest moments of my life,” Jade admitted. She then went on to explain that it was so frightening “because I felt so out of control.” Of course! Childbirth can be frightening under the best of circumstances. “But Tanner, Tanner’s mom, my mom, and the medics and firefighters kept me going,” Jade gushed. She praised them for staying by her side “when I felt like the world was caving in on me and my unborn baby.” “I was going to share the happy, cute Instagrammable pics first,” Jade told her fans and followers. You know, the classic shots of the mom with her newborn resting on her chest, or of the newborn in a cradle. “But,” she explains of the chaotic closet photo. “This felt right to me.” “So incredibly grateful for the support system we had,” Jade expressed. “And for this beautiful boy,” she concluded. “I get to hold in my arms.” Countless comments poured in after Jade shared her stressful story and her good news. Chris Harrison himself commented: “Now that’s the most dramatic delivery ever.” Lauren Burnham gushed: “Dang woman, you are amazing. Congratulations on your baby boy!” Speaking of Lauren Bs, Lauren Bushnell wrote: “Oh my goodness!!!!! Glad you and baby are ok!!!” “Wow!!!! You are a superhero girl!!!!!! Congratulations!!!” raved Vanessa Grimaldi. Pregnancy is a complicated thing. Due dates and delivery times can be difficult or even impossible to accurately predict. Labor often lasts several hours. For some, that means a full day of agony. For others, as was clearly the case with Jade, labor can come and go in less time than it takes to watch a movie. Having a solid plan to get to the hospital to give birth is a great idea, but it’s important for couples to realize that they can’t plan for everything. Childbirth can and will throw you for a loop.

So… have you picked your jaw up off the floor yet, The Bachelorette fans? Or, perhaps this would be a better question, following a crazy whirlwind of an insane Season 15 finale: Has your neck recovered from all that storyline whiplash just yet? FIRST on Tuesday night, Hannah dumped Tyler, saying him to his face that she was in love with Jed. SECOND on Tuesday night, Hannah accepted a proposal from Jed after he sang her a song and got down on one knee. THIRD on Tuesday night, Hannah kicked Jed tot he curb after she learned he basically had a girlfriend this whole time and was a total dirty rotten liar. And THEN on Tuesday night, toward the end of the After the Rose live studio special, well… … Hannah sort of pulled a Jason Mesnick. Allow us to explain: After breaking things off with Jed — who, again is a total dirty rotten liar — Hannah welcomed Tyler back into her life for the first time since she basically rejected his proposal in Greece. We learned on the After the Rose special that Hannah is now single and happy, but also still clearly thinking about a certain someone. And that certain someone felt the same way. “I’m so excited to see her,” Tyler told Chris Harrison on stage, adding of Hannah: “I was looking forward to this day, actually. It was a tough break up, and it was hard, but I have so much respect for you and I loved watching the season, how powerful and strong you’ve been.” Tyler said he believed Hannah was going to be “in good hands” with Jed, and it’s been difficult to see her go through this split. “She is a fighter, one of the strongest people I have met, the world is hers. And I know that,” he added. Then, it was Hannah’s turn to speak — and she made the most of it. “I know that with Tyler, he’s been so supportive and so respectful of me, not just on our journey together but even afterwards,” she explained on air, continuing as follows: “Our relationship was real to me and special and everything I said, I meant and I felt and it didn’t just go away, and I still, like, have feelings. “I’m really confident in who I am now and being on my own and growing and really taking everything I’ve learned and what I want in a next relationship, but I don’t know. ” Go on, Hannah! Just do it! Just say it! “I mean, I’ve always said I want somebody to be bold and I’m bold, and I make bold moves, and you’re an incredible guy and I’m a single girl…so? “I just thought maybe we could go for a drink and just hang out.” Tyler, your response? “I would love to, just tell me when, I’m there.” As the audience went berzerk, Hannah said the two just need to be normal people and hang out, while Harrison said he’d even send a date card, which we’re pretty sure is the opposite of normal. But whatever. Mesnick, of course, was The Bachelor on Season 13. His situation was a little different from that of Hannah’s — but he did break up with Melissa Rycroft on the After the Rose special, only to then ask out Molly, his runner-up at the time. She accepted the simple date invitation… and now they are happily married! So there you have it, guys. But no pressure at all, Hannah and Tyler!!!! And the Winner is? Yes! Click Here To Vote for Yes!
