Jenelle Evans Doesn’t Care That California is on Fire Right Now

Jenelle Evans is a moron. Sorry, there's just no other way to say it. The Teen Mom 2 cast member has made many bad decisions over the course of her life, right up to and including her marriage to David Eason… … who she  evidently thinks everyone totally loves . But one of the least smart things Evans has ever done is take a vacation in California and share a number of lovely photos from the trip — while totally ignoring the awful wild fires that rage around the state and cause the evacuation of over 250,000 people. Yes, she really has done this. Scroll down to see her photos, read her captions and then to roll your eyes at her obvliousness: 1. Jenelle and David Eason are on Vacation They are visiting Sequoia National Park, California, which is an absolutely gorgeous place to be. That much is not in dispute. 2. But Here’s the Thing: Wild fires all around the Malibu area have caused mass evacautions and led to the deaths of at leat 31 people. It’s a statewide tragedy, even for those not immediately affected by the disaster. You can watch the above video for more. 3. Is Jenelle Close to the Still-Spreading Flames? No. The national park at which she’s a visitor and Malibu are over 250 miles apart. She is safe and sound and very far away from the danger zone(s). 4. But Still, Right? Many folks out there would agree it’s in bad taste to brag about the glorious sights and sounds all around you in the same state in which a quarter million people are literally, simultaneously fleeing for their lives. 5. It’s Amazing Out Here, Though! “This is the most magical place I’ve ever been in my life! I’m so glad to have experienced it with my best friend. This makes you wonder if giants were ever real,” Jenelle wrote as a caption to this photo and a few others from her trip. 6. Look at Us, Not Running for Shelter from the Fire! Added Evans: “Nature is super breathtaking. Don’t ever take it for granted. Adventure out everywhere you can and explore the world!” View Slideshow

No More Extra Hours: Californian’s Vote Yes To Year-Long Daylight Saving Time

On March 5th 2017 in Los Angeles, United States of America. Some People Aren’t Happy About It Many Californians seem to be all about getting more sunshine after voters backed a proposition that could make daylight saving time permanent. On the ballot, Proposition 7 asked people whether or not they agreed to stop changing their clocks twice a year. Out of the more than three million ballots counted, around 60.3 percent of people voted Yes, while 39.7 percent of folks opposed the proposition, according to Newsweek. The Daylight Saving Time Act came about in 1949 in the U.S. and requires clocks to be set forward by an hour in the spring and fall back an hour every fall. The Proposition 7 vote came just two days after the U.S. fell back to standard time, gaining an hour of sunlight in the morning, but losing an hour of sunlight in the evening. Democratic Rep. Kansen Chu of San Jose put forth Proposition 7, arguing it’s a public safety issue. Having to spring forward every year causes people to lose an hour of sleep, which could lead to increases in car accidents and heart attacks, he argued. He cited a 2009 Michigan State University study for back-up. “I don’t know anybody who really enjoys doing this adjustment of their schedule twice a year,” Chu said. Thus, he and many other Californians argued that we should just stick to the Spring forward time and keep it there all-year round. Chu said making daylight saving permanent could mean children spending more time outside during the winter and people eating out more, which could boost businesses. Despite Californians voting Yes on the proposal Tuesday, any changes still require the backing of a two-thirds majority in Congress, as well as a change in federal law. Some people aren’t for the proposal. Republican legislator Jim Nielsen said back in June, “It’s fixing something that is not broken. Our society has acculturated itself to Daylight Savings Time. I think it would create too much confusion to change it again.” So far, Hawaii and Arizona (with the exception of the Navajo Nation) don’t recognize daylight saving time. Florida became the first state to approve year-round daylight saving time back in March. However, as stated earlier, their move still requires the approval of Congress.

Divorcée Woes: Larsa Pippen Denies Being A Gold Digger & A Heaux For Hendrix In Statement About Divorce

Picture by: Shotbyjuliann / SplashNews.com Larsa Addresses Alleged Cheating On Scottie Pippen Larsa Pippen is a freshly single woman after 21 years of marriage to Scottie Pippen, but she isn’t letting folks talk cash sh*t about it anymore online. The mother and socialite posted up a statement to her Instagram story addressing folks concerned about how her relationship ended. Back in late 2016 and months after, Larsa was spotted hanging out heavily with rapper Future and soon after divorce papers were filed. People assumed that she was cheating, causing her marriage to crumble, but Larsa says that’s not how it went down! She also denies using anyone for money in her relationship, because she’s RICH ALREADY, duh!   Here’s what Larsa had to say about it all: Ppl are so sensitive to my life. I’m a lover and I will never say anything negative about him. My soul isn’t built for negativity. I’ll take a beating publically people saying I cheated and believe me it was nothing like that. He was no where around. I cried oceans after him. I would do anything for him. People saying I’m a gold digger is insane I don’t care about money I’ve had it my whole life. I’ve spent my bday, New Years Eve, times when I needed him alone. At some point i decided I had to live my truth and I am here. Does that clarify everything for you guys? Larsa is a single woman now who doesn’t have to answer to anyone, but maybe she needed to do this to clear the air. We hear ya girl!

Alaskan Bush People: Gabe Brown and Raquell Rose Are Getting Married!

Back in August, Alaskan Bush People star Noah Brown married Rhain Alisha in a beautiful, low-key ceremony. Now it’s another member of the Brown family’s turn. This time, it’s Gabe Brown — who filed for a marriage license before anyone heard a word about an engagement! RadarOnline reports that Gabe Brown is either married already — or about to be. A clerk at the Marriage License Office in Okanogan, Washington says that Gabe and his girlfriend got their marriage papers last month. “Gabriel Brown and Raquell Pantilla filed for a marriage license in person on October 8,” the clerk confirms. Raquell is not unfamiliar to fans who follow the Brown family on social media. In fact, it was Gabe’s youngest sister Rain who revealed Gabe’s relationship with Raquell “Rose” Pantilla. Rain has joked about beinga  third wheel, but she and Raquell have described each other as the best of friends. A source close to the Brown family didn’t quite confirm Gabe’s marriage, but didn’t exactly deny it, either. “They have been spending a lot of time together,” the family source acknowledged. The insider affirmed that “really likes her.” We’ve all been able to tell that much just from watching them on social media. Just look at this photo that Gabe shared of his and Raquell’s hands forming a heart together. Now, as we were all so recently reminded with Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin, a marriage license can be a little ambiguous. We looked it up, and Washington state law says that a marriage license has a three-day waiting period. (That, folks, is to prevent people who are blitzed out of their minds from having impulsive weddings with someone they just met) After those three days are over, the couple has 60 days in which to have their wedding. After that, if they have not held a wedding, the marriage license becomes invalid. If our understanding that this gives Gabe and Raquell a total of 63 days in which to tie the knot is correct, they must hold their wedding by December 10. Just because Gabe and Raquell need to hold a wedding between October 11 and December 10 doesn’t mean that it has to be large. Noah’s wedding, after all, was a pretty small event. It is entirely possible that Gabe and Raquell have already had a wedding somewhere on the Brown family’s private, spacious homestead. If your dad buys 435 acres of land , we sure hope that there’s enough room for you to get married on it. If so, we hope that they’ll make an announcement about it soon. But they still have an entire month — and some change — to hold that wedding. Maybe it hasn’t happened yet. Gabe Brown has not always been so lucky in love. In late November of last year, Rain warned her fans and followers that an imposter was pretending to be Gabe Brown . This imposter was catfishing fans, some of whom developed real feelings for the fake Gabe. Months later, when fans learned of Gabe’s relationship with Raquel, some accused Gabe of seducing them — having ignored Rain’s warning. These fans may have seen Rain’s warning but refused to believe that they were being catfished. We’re glad that Gabe and Raquell were able to get past that. Still, Gabe and Raquell have only been dating for … possibly less than a year. Though Raquell has been getting along well with the Brown family — especially with Rain — some wonder if they’re rushing things. It’s always a little surprising when a couple goes from “dating” to “married” (or close enough) without any real engagement in between. But sometimes, couples just know. Congratulations to Gabe and Raquell! View Slideshow: Alaskan Bush People: 13 Secrets They Don’t Want You to Know

Bethenny Frankel Defends Halloween Costume Against Body-Shaming Morons

Bethenny Frankel has endured so much in recent years, but she is coping and is even dating businessman and movie guru Paul Bernon . Halloween is a time for everyone to let loose, and that’s exactly what Bethenny did as a stunning Victoria’s Secret Angel. Unfortunately, she was targeted by trolls who said that she’s “too old” to dress that way. Awful . First and foremost, Bethenny Frankel looks gorgeous. And yes, there are plenty more photos where this one came from, and you can see them all in this post. Her Victoria’s Secret Angel costume combines both the dress-up aspect of Halloween and the ever-important “but make it sexy” goal. Unfortunately, some people took aim at Bethenny’s age of 47 years. Apparently they feel that living your best life on Halloween by wearing whatever you like is exclusively for younger people. Ageist little beasts — sorry, body-shaming internet trolls flooded Bethenny’s comments with negativity. “Little old for trashy costumes,” accused one inescusable hater. “You have a great figure,” began another. “But maybe something a bit more age appropriate?” That is so stupid, but it gets so much worse. The next commenter really crosses a line. “Considering your recent loss,” one vile moron writes. “I am questioning why you would think this costume is in good taste????” That person is trying to use the tragic death of Dennis Shields to body-shame Bethenny into wearing a nun’s habit. All of that ageist body-shaming is despicable. Fortunately, Bethenny wasn’t taking the hate lying down. First, she addressed those who accused her of copying the Kardashians’ lingerie look . “For those haters,” Bethenny writes. “I suppose that monetizing reality TV is not the only good idea that the Kardashians and I have shared simultaneously.” Then she took aim at the people who think that women over 35 should cover up. Bethenny put those trolls on blast: “For those who bash theirs or my body, go hate somewhere else.” (By “theirs,” she meant Tinsley Mortimer, Dorinda Medley, and Sonja Morgan — all of whom looked stunning) “We are mothers and daughters,” Bethenny reminds the monsters on social media. “And I chose those very polarizing ruffle boy shorts thus opting to not show my vagina this Halloween,” she explains ina  tongue-in-cheek manner. “I’m in my late 40s,” Bethenny affirms. “This is my God given body with no receipts attached (a breast lift 12 years ago notwithstanding) to it.” She continues: “Perhaps next year I will go pantyless & await more constructive comments.” “To the rest of you,” she concludes. “I had the best Halloween ever, trick or treating with my peanut then dancing w my ladies. XO.” Honestly, Bethenny Frankel is a gift and the world does not deserve her. Speaking of The Real Housewives of New York City stars being shamed over their Halloween costumes, there’s some good news. Remember how Luann faced backlash for darkening her skin for her costume in 2017? The issue was never that she dressed as Diana Ross — the issue, which was brought up by Megyn Kelly with disastrous results — was that she was essentially wearing blackface. Well, Luann and Sonja were twinning hard as a pair of sexy nurses this Halloween. No blackface involved. Every other day of the year, the two of them dress as sexy socialites, so we’re sure that this was a fun break.

Dakota Meyer on Bristol Palin: She’s Like Cancer! She Ruined My Life!

Dakota Meyer is holding nothing back when it comes to his ex-wife. Quite the extreme opposite, in fact. As Teen Mom OG viewers have seen clearly over the past few weeks, Meyer and Bristol Palin did not end their marriage on good terms several months back. Their relationship fell apart due to Meyer’s ongoing PTSD, which he has struggled with ever since losing nearly his entire military team during a battle in Afghanistan. It’s a tragic and very true story, but it’s been overshadowed of late by the ugly back-and-forth between Meyer and Palin. Just last week, for example, on the latest episode of Teen Mom, Bristol said she was heartbroken because Meyer ditched her son , Tripp, as soon as his romance with Palin was over. (Bristol has this son with ex-fiance Levi Johnston and shares two younger daughters with Meyer.) “He hasn’t reached out to Tripp and Tripp is crushed by it,” Bristol told a producer on air of Meyer. “It breaks my heart.” Is this really the case, however? Has Meyer not maintained a relationship with the nine-year, to whom he grew very close as a stepfather for years? No, Meyer said a couple days ago on his Instagram Story. “I never got the opportunity to [stay close to Tripp after my divorce,]” he explained. “I don’t have custody of Tripp. It’s hard enough for his own dad to get to see him!” That’s some strong, subtle shade right there. Added Meyer: “When you have a stepchild, you don’t get the rights to that stepchild when you get divorced. If they’re under 18 you have to go through their mother to get them.” Because, according to Meyer, Bristol has not let him actually see Tripp, Dakota says he hasn’t tried to reach out in other ways because he doesn’t want to essentially tease the child: “Am I supposed to call Tripp up and mess with his mind and then when Bristol’s pissed with me, she’s not going to let me see him? I’m not going to mess with him. “He’s had enough of that.” Meyer and Palin got divorced way back in February. The split is only relevant again because we’re watching it play out each week on Teen Mom OG. All this time later, how does Meyer feel about the break-up? Does he have any regrets? HECK NO! “When you get rid of the cancer in your life, you can go live,” Meyer said this week about the situation Yikes, right? Wow.  Meyer has been very open about his depression and anxiety, both of which are related to his PTSD. But he says here that his mental health has improved significantly since he stopping seeing Bristol. “We talk about anxiety, do you know how many shots I’ve had to get in my neck [for anxiety] lately? None. “Since Bristol moved out of my house I haven’t had to get any shots in my neck. I haven’t had to take any Ketamine. I haven’t had to take any medication.” He has had to read about Palin calling him an evil liar , however. Still, he doesn’t regret marrying her only because he got his two kids out of the relationship. And also because Palin basically showed Meyer exactly what he does NOT want out of a partner. “Before Bristol I couldn’t have appreciated a good woman in my life… “But now, [after] being treated like shit by somebody, I understand what it’s like to be treated terrible and not have someone give a shitt about you and be stuck with them, and have to put up with that,” he said on Instagram. “I think it was a plan by God of working on me. I don’t think it was a mistake. “I think it was God using her to put me in a situation that sucked real bad and to be worked on.” Well… okay then! They do say the Lord works in mysterious ways, right? View Slideshow: Bristol Palin: Dakota Meyer Has Ditched My Son… and It Sucks!

Duggar Kids: Who’s the Biggest Rebel Against Jim Bob’s Ridiculous Rules?

When the Duggars rose to fame in the early 2000s, audiences were drawn to their reality shows primarily because Jim Bob and Michelle had already sired a massive brood, and they seemed to have no plans to put the breeding on hold anytime soon. As time went on, however, viewers realized that their fertility was not the most unusual thing about the Duggars. Instead, it was the family's bonkers belief system that made for such compelling viewing. From courtship rules to insanely strict dress codes, the Duggars controlled every aspect of their kids' lives, and it was only a matter of time before said offspring started to rebel. Take a look: 1. Josiah Can’t Be Tamed First, there’s Josiah Duggar. Sure, he recently settled down and got married, but we’re guessing his days as the main cause of Jim Bob’s migraines are far from over. 2. Heartbreaker Josiah is unique among his siblings in that he was involved in a different courtship BEFORE he met his wife. 3. The Mystery Deepens There’s still no word on what caused Josiah and Marjorie to call off their courtship — a move that’s almost unprecedented in Duggar Land. Scandalous! 4. Still Rebelling After his relationship with Marjorie ended, Josiah continued to maintain an Instagram account in direct defiance of his parents’ rules. 5. What Courtship Rules? He and Lauren Swanson also held hands, front-hugged and went on un-chaperoned dates before they were married. Someone arrest this man! 6. Four Can Play at That Game! But no one tossed the courtship rules right out the window quite like John David Duggar and his fiance Abbie Burnett. View Slideshow

Jinger Duggar Shows Off Adorable Mother-Daughter Twinning Photo

Jinger Duggar has been treating Counting On fans to photos of her adorable little family . Now, she and husband Jeremy Vuolo are sharing a new photo. In it, she’s twinning with her 3-month old baby, Felicity. “Like mother, like daughter,” Jinger captioned the photo that you’re about to see. In it, the 24-year-old Duggar daughter is wearing a floral headband. Baby Felicity is wearing a matching headband — it’s just a smaller version for her tiny baby head. While they’re not otherwise in matching outfits, we think that it still counts as twinning. (Seriously, finding a baby outfit that matches adult clothing can be tricky) Besides, the picture is just too cute. This mother-daughter photo is so cute! This is the time of year for dressing up in a lot more than headbands, but the Duggar family does not celebrate Halloween. Michelle Duggar expressed her strong views in a blog post in 2011. “While we do go to pumpkin patches and corn mazes,” Michelle wrote. “We don’t do the Halloween thing.” You miss out on a lot of fun and a lot of culture when you grow up in the Duggar household. “From the beginning of our marriage we just kind of felt like we didn’t want to celebrate that holiday,” she shared. “But,” Michelle admitted. “We enjoy the harvest celebration.” “Our church fellowship has had different celebrations through the years that we’ve been a part of,” Michelle continued. Michelle wrote that these celebrations were “ones where the children can play games and receive candy and toys and do all kinds of fun things, like a cake walk.” Really, of course, the family’s reluctance to participate in Halloween stems from a desire to isolate the children from any cultural experiences that they consider unbiblical. In  Growing Up Duggar  by Jill, Jinger, Jessa, and Jana mention how seriously Jim Bob and Michelle take the supernatural. “One specific thing that our parents have always been careful about is magic,” the book says. “Which often shows up in children’s movies.” “As harmless as it may seem, it’s not a joke in God’s eyes,” the girls say. “Magic, sorcery, witches, spell-casting and the like are all part of the demonic realm that God wants us to stay away from,” the book continues. “No matter how ‘good’ a film containing magic may seem,” the girls warn. “God speaks seriously throughout the Bible.” The girls write that “it is not something to be glorified or portrayed by any means as something fun or attractive.” So we don’t think that Felicity will be going trick-or-treating when she gets older. Halloween, first of all, tends to glorify a lot of those things — you know, people dress as witches and ghosts. Also, the holiday itself is based upon an ancient religious festival of the Celtics, that involved honoring the dead while celebrating the year’s final harvest. While most see Halloween as fairly distinct from Samhain, which some still practice today, to the Duggars, it’s a spiritual threat. That said, Jeremy Vuolo has shown that he’s less strict than Jim Bob and Michelle. Just as Austin Forsyth viewed and reviewed the Marvel film, Thor , Jeremy has demonstrated that he doesn’t share their views. He believes that women can wear pants. Might he one day allow his daughter to dress up as Batgirl or as a princess? Maybe we’ll find out. For now, she’s a literal baby and is perfectly happy wearing a headband that matches her mother’s.

Strong Swirl Sweetness: Divorced Aisha Tyler Says She’s Found ‘True Love’ With A Woman

Lester Cohen/WireImage Aisha Tyler Says She’s Found “True Love” With Emily Bett Richards Aisha Tyler is back in love. The former “The Talk” co-host seemingly confirmed to fans that she’s not only coupled up, she’s in a happy, swirly, same-sex relationship. As previously reported Aisha and her husband Jeff Tietjens announced their divorce in 2016 and Aisha was ordered to pay $2 million plus $31,000 a month in spousal support. She tearfully announced the news on “The Talk” and was adamant that their marriage didn’t fail. “Even though we’re separating, all I want for him is joy and fulfillment in whatever he chooses to do in his life next. And whatever I can do to help him do that, I want to do it,’ Aisha said on Monday’s show. ‘I don’t, not in any way, see this relationship as a failure. I was with this extraordinary person,’ she explained. ‘I had this extraordinary love affair for 25 years of my life. And that is how I see it.’ ‘He’s a wonderful person,’ she continued. ‘He’s been my best friend for almost my entire life. I’ll always, always love him.” She’s since moved on and it looks like it’s with none other than “Arrow” actress Emily Bett Rickards. “True love,” she captioned a strip of photos of them kissing and canoodling. Prior to the “true love” picture, Aisha posted a birthday message to Emily and gushed over her love for her. “Happy happy birthday @emilybett! I could go on here about how much you mean to me, but I am going to tell you directly into your lovely face instead like an actual living human being.” It CLEARLY looks like they’re together and happier than ever. Aisha’s also been blasting Trump’s treatment for the LGBTQ community, so she’s seemingly out. Good for them!

American Horror Story Recap: The Traitor

Wednesday’s episode found our favorite coven of witches desperately trying to find some allies as the war against Michael Langdon aka The Antichrist loomed.  Cordelia turned to Dinah Stevens, the witch who we know is in Outpost 3 in the present in this time jumping series, and asked her for a meeting.  The meeting was with Papa Legba, but Dinah was not about to set that up until she got some cold hard cash for the inconvenience of summoning the voodoo devil.  Cordelia parted with $100,000 and got a lot more than she bargained for when she realized that Nan was working with the elusive villain in hell.  “I really like hell,” she admitted to Cordelia. “It’s fun! … I make trouble.” Cordelia’s plan sounded rather simple: She wanted Papa Legba to open the gates of hell long enough to trap Michael in there for the rest of eternity.  While Papa Legba seemed to like the idea of Michael being all locked up in his realm, he said she would need to give him something in return.  All of her girls would have to make their way to the dimension, presumably so he could harness their powers. But that was not enough for Cordelia to agree to the offer.  Instead, she pleaded with Dinah after Papa Legba exited the scene, but Dinah was open about that being the only way out for them.  While Cordelia’s plan fizzled out, we got to witness a whole new plan thanks to the addition of Bubbles McGee, Joan Collins’ second character this season.  The washed-up movie star could tell what people were thinking, so Madison reached out to her in a blatant attempt to make the first strike against the men of Michael’s school.  Myrtle and Bubbles indulged in a dinner party with the warlocks, and that’s when Bubbles learned the frightening truth about John Henry: He was murdered, and both men knew all about it.  John Henry was brought back to life courtesy of Mallory and Zoe harnessing their magical abilities, and John Henry had a revenge plan in mind.  Cordelia intercepted Ariel and Baldwin’s plan to send powder through the air to kill her and her girls and noted that the idea was stolen from a woman.  Those warlocks switched the gender and set out to steal the idea for themselves. In any case, they were burned at the stake alongside Miss Mead.  John Henry returned to do the lightning, but it didn’t seem to faze Miss Mead who was chanting that it was a rebirth of sorts for her.  This episode was transitional more than anything. It set the tone for what’s to come in the coming weeks as the battle against the Antichrist gets underway.  What are your thoughts on the latest twists and turns? Hit the comments below!
