Bow Down Babies: Beyawnsay Shares New Precious Pics Of A Crown-Rockin’ Blue Ivy Carter

Kneel before BGKC’s royal infant you peasants! Beyonce Posts New Photos Of Blue Ivy On her Tumblr Page Via EOnline It’s official: Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s six-month-old little girl, Blue Ivy Carter, already has so much more swag than we could ever possibly try to accumulate. And this might have already been a known fact, but Bey was nice enough to post some photographic evidence to make it clear. The singer shared a few BIC-themed photos on her official Tumblr. page, which ranged from super cute to pretty bad-azz. Of course, Bey steered away from uploading the generic, posed snapshots, and got crafty with her artwork. One picture just featured an adorable, light peach dress of Blue Ivy’s on a hanger, while another playfully showcased the tot’s tiny, hot pink Tom Ford heels on her mama’s foot. Jealous of her wardrobe? Yeah, us, too. Another image caught a sweet moment between the mother-daughter duo, with Blue’s itty-bitty finger poking at Beyoncé’s face from a baby carrier. In response, Bey shared an adoring gaze at her little princess, while seemingly backstage at a show. But the best photo—at least in our opinion—is the picture of Blue Ivy rocking her mini crown. The angling of the image only partially shows the cutie’s face as she wears her royal headgear tilted to the side, very reminiscent of the famous Notorious B.I.G photo. The spirit of Biggie Smalls was definitely in the air when Bey snapped this pic. Flip it over to get the goods. Images via tumblr

Khloe Kardashian: Loving Life, Hating Pregnancy Questions

Kim Kardashian is pregnant. Kourtney Kardashian has two kids. And, in case every other tabloid cover hasn’t made it clear, Khloe Kardashian is childless. The reality star has had trouble getting pregnant, but she wants to make it clear: that doesn’t mean she goes around being all depressed. Far from it. ““People assume I’m desperate for a baby,” Khloe tells Redbook . “And, yes, I would love to have a baby. But I’m 28, and I’ve been married three and a half years. I love my life, but it doesn’t feel incomplete right now.” Does she ever tire of the baby questions? “I do think my difficulty getting pregnant has helped a lot of women,” Kardashian – who is undergoing hormone injections – said. “Do I wish people would quit asking me about it 24/7? Yes, but I don’t regret it.” Also contrary to many rumors? She’s totally thrilled for Kim. “People want to assume that I’m devastated. I couldn’t be happier. I actually got mad at Kourtney, because she was afraid to tell me at first. So I get why people think I’m hurt because my own sister thought I would be.”

Taking The High Road: Barack Obama Says He’s Not Offended By Dirty Harry’s Little Speech At The RNC

Obama Not Offended By Clint Eastwood’s Remarks At RNC In case you missed Dirty Harry’s speech… Click Here President Obama wants to make it clear that, in his own words, “I am a huge Clint Eastwood fan. He is a great actor, and an even better director,” the president said in an interview with USA TODAY aboard Air Force One, on his way to campaign rallies in Iowa Saturday. “I think the last few movies that he’s made have been terrific.” However, Obama seemed less eager to review Eastwood’s latest performance, on stage at the Republican National Convention Thursday. The 82-year-old Hollywood icon preceded Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney with a rambling 12-minute improvisation that included a rude “interview” with an empty chair purportedly occupied by an invisible Obama. “One thing about being president or running for president — if you’re easily offended, you should probably choose another profession.” Obama said with a smile. He said there would be no effort to counter with a similar stunt at the Democratic National Convention, which opens in Charlotte Tuesday. “I think we’ll be playing this pretty straight,” he said.

In White Folks With Black Kids News: Jillian Michaels Totes Lil Lukensia Around Town And Talks About Why Her Baby Girl Is So Shy

Jillian Michaels was spotted carrying her lil girl Lukensia around Malibu after making a Starbucks run. The fitness guru recently talked to US Weekly about how her little girl is so shy after being confined mostly to an orphanage for the early part of her life: “I’ve been to Haiti on and off since I was 27. I met her a year ago on a trip visiting orphanages for All Blessings International, an organization I work with,” Michaels, 38, tells Ladies’ Home Journal’s July issue. “I was visiting this one orphanage and the next thing I knew she jumped into my arms. She just grabbed me and clung to me and I immediately felt something. I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is my daughter.’ “ But adopting Lukensia was not an easy process. The baby girl had already been placed with a family in Germany, but it didn’t work out. “I do think there’s a certain amount of fate involved,” the former Biggest Loser trainer explains. “Life has a way of working out the way it’s meant to.” Now, Michaels and her partner, Heidi Roades, 31, are the proud parents Lukensia and son, Phoenix, who was born on May 3. And their children have two very different personalities. “He is the calm one. Patient. She is a firebrand,” Michaels shares. “Actually, she’s incredibly shy. She’s clever and adventurous, but it’s kind of heartbreaking because you have to understand she has been here since she was 9 or 10 months old. She’s now 2 and the only time she left the orphanage [prior to the adoption] was when I would take her to the Haitian guesthouse where I stayed nearby.” We’re happy Lukensia is in a good home now, but it seems like we either read a new article or see photos of Jillian every other day now. Is she trying to promote adoption — or something else? GSIMedia

Jenna Talackova, Transgender Beauty Pageant Contestant, Disqualified from Miss Universe Canada

A new beauty pageant scandal has broken out, but this one has nothing to do with naked photos or a contestant’s stance on gay marriage . Jenna Talackova – a 23-year old who was born a man, but who underwent gender reassignment surgery at the age of 19 – has been disqualified from Miss Universe Canada because, according to a statement from the organization, she does not “meet the requirements to compete, despite having stated otherwise on her entry form.” Producers added that they do respect Talackova’s “goals, determination and wish her the best.” “I am very disappointed with the decision taken by the Miss Universe … organizers,” Talackova said in a statement released today. “However, I will look to turn this situation into a positive so that other people in a similar situation are not discriminated against in the future.” Denis Davila, the director of the event, says there are rules in place that make it clear one must be born a woman in order to compete. Jenna, he says, indicated on her original registration that she was female, only to later explain her unusual situation. Reactions to the decision have been mixed with over 20,000 signatures on a change.org petition to reverse the pageant ruling. What do you think? Should Talackova have been disqualified?

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony: Still Hitting It?!?

Casper Smart who?!? Despite rumors that link Jennifer Lopez to her back-up dancer , sources tell Us Weekly this singer spent a night alone with ex-husband Marc Anthony on November 8, as J. Lo touched down in Puerto Rico in honor of the former couple’s talent competition Q’Viva! The Chosen . Anthony picked Lopez at the airport and “Marc never stayed in his hotel room,” an insider says … if we know what he or she means! Describing the divorce as an emotional “roller coaster” for both parties, the mole says future hook-ups are also “inevitable” because Anthony “has this hold” over his ex. Still, another friend wants to make it clear: “They may sleep together, but they’re over!” Sure. And sometimes they’re under. And sometimes they’re side-by-side or upside down. We get it.

Dr. Conrad Murray Trial Begins; Defense Tells Jury Michael Jackson Killed Himself

In his opening statement in the the involuntary manslaughter trial of Dr. Conrad Murray, attorney Ed Chernoff told the jury Michael Jackson killed himself. Earlier, prosecutor David Walgren delivered the state’s opening argument, using a stark visual of what appears to be Jackson’s lifeless body on a gurney. Below are summaries of the opening arguments laid out by both sides: L.A. County D.A.’s office prosecutors argued this morning that … Michael Jackson fully trusted Dr. Conrad Murray with his life The cause of death was an overdose of Propofol, administered by Murray Murray repeatedly acted with both gross negligence and incompetence Murray bought very large quantities of Propofol on a regular basis Murray knew Michael’s state and what he was doing to the singer In the weeks before Michael died, he was cold, shivering and rambling (Kenny Ortega will testify to this) but Murray kept giving him Propofol Murray scolded Ortega for expressing concerns about Jackson’s health, saying “Michael is physically and emotionally fine. I am the doctor.” Michael died in his bed and was dead when paramedics arrived Murray was texting and making phone calls while he sat by MJ He made eight phone calls on June 25, 2009, the last at 11:51 to a girlfriend, and that’s when Murray realized there was an emergency Murray instructed bodyguard Alberto Alvarez to essentially hide evidence in a blue bag – possibly including the fatal dose of Propofol Murray never told EMTs or UCLA doctors he gave MJ Propofol His guilty conscience caused him to stall the investigation Murray committed “medical abandonment” of Michael Jackson by leaving a patient unattended while under anesthetic in this manner Conrad Murray acted with gross negligence and was not acting in Jackson’s best interests, but rather his own $150,000/month salary Michael Jackson Recording at Dr. Conrad Murray Trial Then it was time for the defense to lay out its theory. They claim: Michael Jackson swallowed 8, 2 mg pills of Lorazepam, then self-injected a dose of Propofol that created a “perfect storm” that killed him There was no way to save Jackson, who died instantly Jackson “had a problem” that no amount of determination could overcome, even with his talent, and was in a deteriorated state for years Dr. Murray is a good man, a cardiologist who saves lives Murray had no idea at the time he was brought on that MJ had so many severe medical problems, including a total inability to sleep Michael Jackson told Murray that the only way he could sleep was with Propofol and always took Propofol, even before hiring Murray Murray provided Propofol for two months for MJ, and during that time the singer slept, woke up, and lived life as he always did Murray was trying to ween MJ off Propofol and give him other, more traditional sedatives in the days before he died – with some success With execs threatening to “pull the plug” on his “This Is It” tour, MJ made it clear to Murray that he needed to sleep or the tour would fail Murray only gave Jackson 25 milligrams of Propofol before MJ died – not enough to kill him. MJ went to sleep with a normal pulse rate When Murray left the room, “there was zero Propofol in his [Michael’s] system” … implying Michael woke up and shot himself up with the fatal dose when Murray was gone, which he also claims wasn’t negligent Dr. Arnold Klein got Jackson hooked on Demerol Murray hid nothing from doctors or police We’re just getting started, but right now … what do you think? Do you buy the defense theory? Based on this, tell is if you think Murray is …

Nancy Grace on DWTS Nip Slip: Only Jiggling!

Dancing With the Stars viewers who tuned in last night probably didn’t do so in hopes of seeing a Nancy Grace nipple slip , but that’s reality TV for you. She was clearly spilling out of her dress, although she sought to downplay it today. The 51-year-old told Us Weekly backstage after Monday’s show: “Tonight, when we were doing our hopscotch portion of our dance, there was a little bit of movement but it did not rise to a wardrobe malfunction.” The buxom Casey Anthony hater showed more than she bargained for. As ABC quickly cut away to a static shot of the audience, Grace readjusted her dress and buried her face in partner Tristan MacManus’ shoulder. “On the European version that would be perfectly fine,” host Tom Bergeron joked. “We took every precaution known to man in this dress right here,” Grace said. “I’m talking industrial size precaution. There may have been, as Tristan said, a little bit of jiggling but there was absolutely not a wardrobe malfunction.” Riiight. You be the judge: Nancy Grace on Dancing With the Stars (Week 2)

Leisha Hailey Fires Back at Southwest, Denies Excessive Touching

Leisha Hailey is not finished with Southwest Airlines. A day after the former L Word star and her girlfriend got booted from a flight – for “excessive” PDA that drew complaints from fellow passengers, according to a company statement – the actress has fired back. She and her partner have released a joint statement that reads : “In no way were our actions on Southwest Airlines excessive, inappropriate or vulgar. We want to make it clear we were not making out or creating any kind of spectacle of ourselves, it was one, modest kiss. “We take full responsibility for getting verbally upset with the flight attendant after being told it was a ‘family airline.’ “We find it very disturbing that the same airline who lauds itself as being LGBT friendly has twisted an upsetting incident that happened into our behavior being ‘too excessive.'” Hailey and the other woman will be filing a formal complaint with the airline.
