It’s been almost a year since Farrah Abraham got fired from Teen Mom OG , but the former reality star has had no trouble keeping busy during that time. Unfortunately, her favorite pastimes these days all have to do with violence. Yes, Farrah has always been an angry person but she’s never been quite this committed to physical violence. And we’re not just talking about the incident back in June when Farrah attacked an employee at the Beverly Hills Hotel. No, that little episode just gave her a taste for blood, and these days, Sophia’s mother is actually making a career out of punching people. Yes, Farrah is rebranding herself as a “celebrity boxer.” And even though she’s having a hard time convincing any of her fellow “celebrities” to step into the ring, ( Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton both turned Farrah down ), she’s clearly taking her training very seriously. As proof, Farrah posted this photo of herself alongside her equally ripped trainer, Tony Thomas. “Look at us & our Abs,” Farrah captioned the pic. Now, Farrah has obviously been focusing on her fitness these past few weeks, but results like that are enough to make anyone suspicious. After all, the girl can work out all she wants, but it’s not as if she’s without vices. (Farrah was smashed out of her gourd during the Beverly Hills Hotel incident, for example.) Plus, Abraham is widely despised by her social media followers, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that fans are throwing major shade in response to her latest pics. Did Farrah get ab implants? Is she juicing? Should all current and former Teen Moms be subjected to random drug tests? As far as we can tell the answers are “probably not,” “very likely,” and “absolutely.” Look, we kid Farrah because it’s so fun and easy. In all likelihood, those results are totally natural and she’ll be cutting quite an intimidating figure when she steps into the ring against Nicole “Hoopz” Alexander. She might not be ready to divulge her secrets, but there’s no denying that the girl is putting the “ab” back “Abraham.” View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham on Teen Mom OG: LOL! Such a F–king Joke Without ME!
These days, tt’s not exactly news when Kim Kardashian poses nude on social media. Of course, that’s got nothing to do with any sort of deterioration in Kim’s appearance. In fact, as far as we can tell, the 38-year-old mother of three is aging like Benjamin Button. But Kim’s been a household name for well over a decade now, and the internet has the attention span of a gnat who missed its morning Adderall dose. So it should come as no surprise that Kim’s curves don’t possess as much clout as they used to. Although as she proved today, Mrs. Kardashian-West can still break the internet and stir up some controversy when she wants to. That’s a pic that appeared on Kim’s Instagram page this afternoon. “My heavenly baby! Showing off the new pink shadows in the Flashing Lights Collection wearing Flashy and High Key available at KKWbeauty.com,” Kim captioned the photo. Sadly, it wasn’t long before the most insidious form of species of troll — the North American mom-shamer — descended on the pic’s comments section. “The baby’s shoulder is touching Kim’s breast!!” commented one follower, presumably while clutching her pearls. “That’s so creepy..she looks like a pedo,” wrote another fan. And since this is the internet in 2018, some folks were just flat-out cruel for no reason, with one follower writing, “ulgy [sic] baby like de father.” Stay classy, Instagram commenters. Interestingly, Kim was mom-shamed for two different pics today. She also posted this photo of 5-year-old North wearing eyeliner from her cosmetics line. Predictably, some idiots trashed Kim for putting makeup on a first grader, others for “using” her daughter to sell makeup. “So now babies are selling eyeshadow too, I don’t know it’s just a lil much for me,” wrote one such dipsh-t. “Not long before plastic surgery.” Yes, because clearly, that child is miserable and over-worked. You’ve flouted our nation’s labor laws for long enough, Kardashians! This has been your daily reminder that social media is a curse from the very darkest depths of hell. Now, if you’ll excuse us, we have tweeting to do. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Goes Nude, Gets Candid About Sex
(Photo by Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic) At Tuesday night’s 2018 American Music Awards, “Booed Up” singer Ella Mai hit the red carpet with shimmery skin, glossy lids, neat brows, brown lips, and a brushed out ponytail . The pared down yet powerful beauty look was as young and fresh as the star in the making sporting it. This makeup look was the perfect compliment to her stunning robin’s egg blue suit with a longline buttoned blazer . Want to recreate the look your next special occasion? We’re showing you how! Keep on reading below. (Photo by Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic) Start with a hydrating base like Smashbox Photo Finish Hydrating Foundation Primer ($36 Ulta.com). Unlike more mattifying options this smoothing pick it won’t fight against the shine you’re adding to your skin. Top it with a great liquid foundation like Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation($49.00 Ulta.com) . Leave the dramatic lashes at home for when you’re trying to channel Cardi B. This look requires something a little more subtle like the KISS Looks So Natural Lash Flirty, Multipack ($11.99) . The goal is to add effortless volume that will leave everyone focused on you not that glob of glue in the corner of your eye. And as an added bonus there’s a ton in a pack so you can hold on to them to layer inside of a more theatrical look later on. Keep your brows perfectly groomed with this Brow Envy kit from Too Faced ($12.97 Hautelook.com) . (Photo by David Crotty/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images) Get Mai’s chocolatey lip by swiping on some Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in “Unveil” ($24 Sephora.com) . The color literally looks great on everyone and depending on your skin tone it can be played upon in a million different ways. Don’t forget to add some liner to prevent feathering. The NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Slim Lip Pencil ($3.99) in Nutmeg is the perfect match for this shade. (Photo by Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) Get her peachy lids by applying a small bit of Glossier’s Cloud Paint in “Beam” ($18 Glossier.com) to your eyelids instead of your cheeks for a rich base. The versatile product is everywhere for a reason! It’s pigmented without being overbearing and it’s buildable so you can play with it without committing. Carefully define the lower lids with short strokes of Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner ($9.99 Ulta.com) (Photo by David Crotty/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images) Layer some Lamik Beauty eye decor in Cheesecake ($18 LamikBeauty.com) on top to get the full effect. We love Lamik Beauty as it’s also a black owned, female owned brand. Yesss! We love the sheer blush on Ella Mai’s cheeks. Add some NARS Liquid Blush in Orgasm ($30 Sephora.com) or fake it until you make it by adding some of your favorite face oil to Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso ($6.99 Target.com) to get the look for less. Show off your angles and blind them with some highlighter. Apply an extra dollop of glow Rihanna Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter in Metal Moon from Fenty Beauty ($34 Sephora.com) to your forehead chin and cheeks using a fan brush ($6.99 CVS) . Like it’s more popular sister product ‘ Trophy Wife’ this product doesn’t leave you looking ghostly. (Photo by Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images For dcp) Ella Mai’s hair was perfectly in place and laid to perfection. Hold on to your hard work by choosing a finishing spray that won’t make everything feel hard and cakey. Try out a travel size version of Tarte’s ready, set, radiant skin mist ($12 Tarte.com) . It’s filled with antioxidants and cucumber extracts so it provides more of flexible hold. Finish off the look by adding an unexpected twist like she did with her ear cuff, choker, and ring choices because scaling things back beauty wise will allow for accessories to make even more of a statement.
A reddit user by the name of Laika_cat posted a redacted screencap of a truly ridiculous email. In the email, which was allegedly written by a wedding coordinator, guests are givena list of demands. A few of them are totally normal — don't wear white, please let us know if you're bringing a plus one. That's all fine and not what has everyone so bewildered. No, the bride is demanding that anyone invited bring a gift of sufficient value if they want to be admitted. And she's also laying down the law about what guests can do, from social media activity to what they drink to how they can do their hair and makeup. Technically, the email is purportedly from the wedding coordinator, but a number of clues make people believe that the bride wrote it herself. Take a look at what true absurdity looks like and ask yourself if you would even bother attending. 1. It starts off normally enough Like we said, it is widely doubted that the wedding coordinator came up with this list — or even wrote it. 2. This question is reasonable This matters for seating layouts and for food preparation. But this question comes before the list. 3. Oh boy, here we go Asking people to show up early is fine. And avoiding white or anything close is considered polite. 4. This is where it gets controlling Now this person is telling people how to wear their own hair and how to do their makeup? It sounds like the bride is terrified of being outshone. 5. She doesn’t just want to control your looks, but your behavior That … is not how you spell ceremony. And while including a tag for an event is standard, the demand that people not check in on social media is weird. 6. This is our favorite one What does this mean? Do not speak to the bride? This is like a list of demands for a major prima donna actress … except she’s making them of people who are presumably family and friends. Who DOESN’T want to talk to their friends? View Slideshow
The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Alexis Bellino is getting a divorce after 13 years of marriage. Though it has been a few years since she was on RHOC, the news about Alexis and Jim took a number of fans by surprise. People wondered where they went wrong. In a joint statement, the divorcing couple is confirming their divorce — and explaining it. In a joint statement to Us Weekly , Alexis and Jim Bellino hope to clear the air. “It is with heavy hearts,” the statement begins. “That we inform the public of our mutual decision to end our marriage.” That can be a difficult choice to make, and sometimes it is just as difficult to announce. The statement continues: “But it’s important to us that you know we made this choice together, with love.” That sounds amicable! That’s very promising. She says they see it as right for them, “and as the best decision for our children’s future.” The statement from Alexis and Jim, who just last year enjoyed a romantic getaway in Venice, Italy, continues. “We hold one another in the highest regards as spouses, and especially as parents,” the statement reads. So they want it clear that this isn’t a situation of spite or hatred. “We have agreed,’ they announce. “On 50/50 custody of the children,” So it doesn’t sound like they plan on waging a custody battle. They’re telling fans this “and we ask that you respect our privacy by not theorizing about the reasons for our divorce.” So we’re not meant to believe that they’re both assassins from rival organizations and have only just learned of this. Gotcha. “In recent days and weeks,” the statement continues. “There has been a lot of negative discussion about our marriage and why it is ending.” “Outside of the news of our decision to part ways,” Alexis and Jim say. “There is nothing provocative, alluring, or sordid about the dissolution of our marriage.” That is often the case. Marriages can begin and end for very mundane reasons. “Quite to the contrary,” the statement says. “We strongly support each other just as we have since the beginning of our relationship.” It sounds like they’re just no longer compatible as partners. “Our marriage was a good one,” Alexis and Jim say. “But we were never perfect people or spouses.” The statement then goes on to claim that “no one is” perfect. If that’s true, how do they explain Janelle Monae? “And in this respect,” the statement says. “We were a lot like millions of other married people.” In other words: flawed . “And,” the statement says. “Just like millions of other married people, we simply grew apart over times.” Hey, it happens. “There is no ill will or bad blood between us,” they reiterate. “And maybe that’s why,” they say. “Absurd rumors about our marriage and future together began when we filed for divorce.” Their argument, here, is that if they’d really been having problems, then there would have been rumors before their divorce. (We don’t know if we necessarily buy that logic) “We ultimately want you to feel happy for us,” the statement reads. “Respect our privacy during this difficult time, and pray for our mutual benefit as we weather this storm.” Alexis and Jim give a shoutout to those lending them emotional support. “To the fans who have supported us since the beginning, we’re grateful for how you cheers us on,” they write. “We ask that you continue to cheer,” the statement concludes. “As our lives and the lives of our children change and ultimately improve as a result of this difficult decision.” That is a very reasonable request. Let’s hope that their divorce remains as amicable and thoughtful as it appears in this joint statement. View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast?
Summer is here! And if you are like me, I like to wear less makeup in the summer because I don’t like it sweating off (makeup slipping is the worst). Being in the heart of the heat (New Orleans), I met up with pro makeup artist Sheria Williams. Williams’ was confident we could achieve a light look that would have my skin looking flawless and use products that would not slip to sweat and heat. Real talk: this look lasted me from the afternoon all the way through the evening. I was in that NOLA heat, I went dancing…and I only had to apply some more transluscent powder as a touch up around 9PM. Source: Amanda Edwards / Getty A natural, light beat has been trending on the carpets for the past few years now. Yara Shahidi is a big fan of the look, known for a dewy glow and a glossy lip. Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful Follow our steps below and learn how to achieve this look! Start with clean skin. You wouldn’t start painting a picture on a dirty canvas, so why would you do this with your face? I had my oil and moisturizer on from the morning, so Williams’ used Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes ($5.39, Target.com ) to take off everything from my face. The towelettes have hydrators and soothing cucumber and aloe extracts to help your skin feel extra moisturized. I like it! Foundation and Contour. Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful While I normally use a primer, Williams’ did not. I thought my makeup would slip without this, but surprisingly it didn’t (you’ll find out why at the last step). She did contour my face, even though I have high cheekbones and a defined face. She explained that contouring helps bring depth to your face. She used LA Girl HD Pro Concealer ($2.38, Walmart.com ). This concealer is cheap and a favorite of many. Williams’ purred, “It goes on sooo creamy!” Even Real Housewives Of Atlanta star, Kandi , loves it and keeps it in her bag ! She used MAC Studio Fix SPF 15 Foundation ($30.00, MACcosmetics.com ) for the rest of my face. To me, it wasn’t even the foundation she used but how she applied it. She stippled my face. Stippling is when you pat the foundation on your face instead of rubbing it in. It also allows your foundation to stay pigmented and give you maximum coverage. I’m confident this is what gave it the airbrushed look. Powder. After she applied the foundation, she set it with Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder ($38.00, Sephora.com ). I believe this is the best setting powder on the market and worth the almost $40.00 investment. All of #TeamBeautiful loves this setting powder. In the Summer, I also love Too Faced Peach Perfect Mattifying Setting Powder ($32.00, Sephora.com ). Don’t be detered by the light color, it blends well into all skin tones. I like this setting powder because it has an extra oomph in preventing shine. Brows. Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful She gave me a natural brow (because, summer) and used Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Pencil ($21.00, Ulta.com ). Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful The major key to natural brows is first brushing your brow hairs up (pictured above), then following your natural brow line and using short strokes to emulate hair. How to do your brows are an entire tutorial on their own, and we have one for you here . Eyes. Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful For my eyes, she used Milani Waterproof Liner Pencil ($6.97, Walmart.com ). You can use your favorite natural eyeshadow palette for a look. Try Maybelline The Nudes ($8.09, Target.com ) that has beautiful browns, golds, and nudes suitable for every Black woman. Add some lashes for oomph! Williams’ used Salon Perfect Be Natural Multi Pack Lashes ($8.44, Walmart.com ). For under $9.00, this gives you five sets of lashes in the pack. What a deal! You can also try Ardell Natural Lash – Black 110 ($4.99, Ulta.com ). Lips. Source: Danielle James / Hello Beautiful For my lips she lined my lips with MAC Cosmetics Lip Liner in Cork ($18.00, MACcosmetics.com ). This is a great shade for brown girls, you can also try Chestnut , if you are darker or want a bit more of an intense brown. For my lipstick, she used Milani Amore Matte Lip Cream in Adorable ($7.97, Walmart.com ).

The new season of Teen Mom 2 hasn’t even started airing yet, and it’s already clear that it’s going to be one hell of a ride. Let’s just take a moment and consider all of the wonders this season will contain! We should get to see Jenelle send off all those ridiculous cease and desist letters to her cast members, and Javi and Briana’s breakup. We’ll finally get to see lots of footage of Kailyn’s adorable little baby, Lux — he’d just been born at the end of last season. Judging by the trailer we’ve seen, it also looks like MTV is continuing their trend of showing backstage footage from the last seasons’ reunion in the new season. Which means that there’s a solid chance we’ll see Jenelle having her meltdown, and her fight with Nathan Griffith’s girlfriend . Reports have claimed that MTV is also doing us a solid by airing more scenes from their New Years’ Eve special — specifically the scene where David lost it and attacked a bunch of balloons with a knife . Obviously there’s a lot of Jenelle stuff to look forward to here, but there’s one more big one: David’s firing. We know that there was a bunch of drama surrounding that decision, and that there was a question as to whether or not Jenelle would get fired too. She did end up filming again, and she’s still filming now, though it does sound like at this point MTV is already filming for the season after this one. And that means that there’s a pretty good chance we won’t get to see the latest chapter in Jenelle’s feud with Kailyn — not this season, anyway. To recap real quick, Jenelle and Kailyn haven’t gotten along for a while now, and things have escalated steadily for the past year or so. Jenelle revealed Kailyn’s pregnancy on Twitter without her permission, and ever since then … it’s been bad. A couple of months ago, Jenelle did an interview, and for some reason she kept bashing Kailyn for having three kids with three different men. Which, just for those of you keeping score, is also something Jenelle has done. She even said that she believed Kailyn had her youngest son for the sake of her Teen Mom 2 storyline, which is a pretty gross thing to say. Since then, Kailyn’s been especially over her nonsense, but things have some somehow gotten worse since David and Jenelle made fun of Leah’s daughter. Because unfortunately, that’s a thing that happened. We know, we know, it’s hard to keep up with all of this, but about a week ago, David commented on a photo that Leah posted of her daughters. He said that Gracie, one of the twins, was wearing too much makeup, and suggested that Leah should have asked the girl’s father for permission before dolling her up like that. It was a dumb comment — the makeup was for a cheerleading competition, and Leah has just as much say in what her daughter wears as Corey does. But Jenelle made things so much worse by posting a dumb confrontational video, judging Leah and Gracie and even making fun of Gracie’s contouring. To repeat that, Jenelle mocked an eight-year-old girl’s makeup. Kailyn hopped in to defend Leah against the Easons’ crazy ramblings, but judging by some comments she made on her podcast this week, things still aren’t over. “We have a reunion next month,” Kailyn revealed. “I don’t know what the hell is going to happen.” “I don’t know if they’re going to have to separate us. I don’t know how Leah and I can sit in the same room as Jenelle.” Which is fair, we know we certainly wouldn’t want to sit in the same room as Jenelle, all this history aside. But as Kail explained, “At this point it’s not drama between the cast mates. You’re talking about our children. At that point, Leah and I probably want to throw hands.” “But it’s not worth it. Just keep her away from us.” It doesn’t sound like she and Leah are planning to gang up on Jenelle or anything, but it’s understandable why she’d prefer to just not be around her. Jenelle’s been very volatile lately, even for her, so it’s best for them to just avoid any situation where things could escalate to violence, especially because Jenelle could just as easily throw hands herself. At another point in the podcast, Kailyn took the time to address David directly, telling him “You are a grown man! You’re commenting on someone else’s children that have nothing to do with you.” “Do not bring someone’s kids into it.” She said that she doesn’t talk about Jenelle’s kids, and neither does Leah — which is definitely true, they don’t. “Nobody talks about Jenelle and David’s kids so why are you talking about our kids?” she asked. “Leah’s children have nothing to do with David, so David needs to shut the f-ck up.” Truer words were never spoken.
