Michelle Obama, Celebrity Moms Nag You to Sign Up For Health Insurance

Sick of your mom nagging you to register for health insurance before the March 31 deadline? Well, Michelle Obama and other celebrity moms are here to do it instead! The First Lady called upon the mothers of Jennifer Lopez, Alicia Keys, Jonah Hill and Adam Levine to remind people of the Obamacare registration deadline. Your Mom Cares About Health Insurance! Fun trivia from the “I Luh Ya PaPi” video vixen’s mom, Guadalupe: “Jennifer walked at eight months. She was climbing out of her crib when she was a year old.” “At one point, I thought, ‘Maybe she should be a gymnast.'” And this from The Wolf of Wall Street star Jonah Hill’s mother, Sharon Feldstein: “Jonah was a prankster … Jonah flooded the elementary school.” The point? Moms put up with a lot of nonsense from their kids, which is inevitable, but being uninsured shouldn’t be one of the things they worry about. Subtle, it’s not. But it is cute to see these celebrity moms. “Seriously, do you want your mothers to have a nervous breakdown?” Feldstein urges the youths of America. “It’s imperative that you have health insurance.” Okay, okay, Sharon. We get it.

Mary-Kate Olsen: Engaged to Olivier Sarkozy!

Olivier Sarkozy and Mary-Kate Olsen are engaged! The former Full House child star is engaged to marry her boyfriend of nearly two years, reports confirm. Sarkozy, 44, is the half-brother of former French president Nicolas Sarkozy. A banker, he first stepped out with the fashionista, 27, back in early 2012. Since then, they’ve been a frequent presence at basketball games and elsewhere in New York City, where they live together in a $6.25 million townhouse. This will be Mary-Kate Olsen’s first marriage and Sarkozy’s second. He and his first wife Charlotte Bernard had two kids, Julien, 12, and Margo, 10. That’s not an issue for her, though. On the contrary, in fact. “Mary-Kate has made him a better father. She remembers all the kids’ special events,” a source said of Olivier’s wife-to-be. “She thinks he’s a great dad.” Her loved ones have a pretty high opinion of him, too. “Mary-Kate’s family thinks Olivier is the best thing to happen to her,” an insider says of sisters Ashley and Elizabeth, plus their parents. “They love him.” Her twin sister, Ashley, is also dating an older man. Following her split from David Schulte, the other Olsen twin has been spending time with Moneyball film director Bennett Miller, who is 20 years her senior.

Adam Driver to Play Main Villain in Star Wars: Episode VII?

The force may soon be with Adam Driver. In a surprising piece of casting news broken by Variety, the Girls star is nearing a deal to appear in Star Wars: Episode VII as that blockbuster’s main villain. Details on the role are vague at the moment, but character is said to be “in the vein” of Darth Vader . Driver was a relative no-name prior to being cast opposite Lena Dunham as Hannah’s boyfriend on Girls. But he is currently shooting Warner Bros.’ “Midnight Special” and is attached to Martin Scorsese’s “Silence” (also starring Andrew Garfield and Liam Neeson) and his stock is clearly on the rise. If this report is accurate, Driver will be the first new cast member to be revealed for this wildly-anticipated follow-up. It will be directed by J.J. Abrams and released in theaters on December 18, 2015. Look for a deal with Driver, and other additions to the franchise, to be finalized over the coming weeks.

Khloe Kardashian: Bound for Rehab?!?

In the latest issue of Cosmopolitan,  Khloe Kardashian is bra-free and care-free. She tells the magazine that she has a great support system, lives for the moment and has no regrets about her failed marriage to Lamar Odom . However, according to a OK! Magazine source, Khloe is masking some serious pain. “Friends are worried that Khloe is heading for a major meltdown due to her excessive partying since her split from Lamar,” reads a report in that tabloid, courtesy of an unnamed source, naturally. Based on her Tweets and Instagram posts at the time of her marriage falling apart, it is clear that Khloe struggled a great deal with Lamar’s infidelity and drug habit. But cameras follow this family everywhere. It stands to reason we’d have sen photos of her clubbing or drinking or something even worse if she really were in this kind of shape. “She’s trying to rebuild after a disastrous relationship, and failing in a bad way,” the insider adds. “She’s like a girl gone wild, and it’s turning into a nonstop party.” Just how dangerous of a situation are we talking here? “Everyone is worried the next stop could be rehab,” concludes the magazine. A source close to the situation, though, tells Gossip Cop this allegation is “not true” and Khloe is in no danger of any kind. Phew. Khloe Kardashian Cosmopolitan Photos Open Slideshow 1.

Pattie Mallette "Genuinely Concerned" About Justin Bieber, Sticking By Son’s Side

Over the past few days, we’ve heard from a couple famous mothers in regard to how they would handle Justin Bieber. Michelle Obama would give him a hug . Sharon Osbourne would kick him in the ass . But what about Justin Bieber’s actual mother? Where does Pattie Mallette stand in the midst of her son’s never-ending drama? Justin Bieber’s Mother: Worried About Son! “As any mom of an adult child, Pattie is holding him close and talking to him about everything, but she can’t make his decisions for him,” an insider close to Mallette tells E! News. Between multiple arrests and PR nightmares for the artist, this source adds that Mallette is “genuinely concerned” over her child… but she isn’t sure how to handle him. “If she is with Justin, she is accused of endorsing or enabling him,” the friend explains. “Yet if they find out she is not with him, they accuse her for not being with her own child in a time like this.” Pattie and Justin have a “great relationship” and the former will “never turn on” her boy, even if he did destroy Selena Gomez . “It would be hard to imagine that any parent wouldn’t feel the same love, concern and responsibility as Pattie does in regard to her son’s well-being,” E!’s report concludes.  “Pattie and [Justin’s dad] Jeremy both know that they are responsible before God and are focusing on their son’s well-being in private.”

Michelle Obama on Justin Bieber: He Needs a Hug!

The Mom-In-Chief has some words of wisdom for the Idiotic-Singer-In-Trouble. With Justin Bieber to face charges for allegedly egging his neighbor’s home month, Michelle Obama has actually spoken out on the young singer and offered some advice. Some advice for his parents , actually. “I would pull him close,” Obama tells ABC News of what she’d do if she were Bieber’s mother. “I would be very present in his life right now. And I would be probably with him a good chunk of the time, just there to talk, to figure out what’s going on in his head, to figure out who’s in his life and who’s not.” In Jeremy Bieber’s defense, he has been spending time with his son recently. He’s just been doing it aboard a private plane, getting high and being abusive . The First Lady, of course, is the mother of Sasha, 12, and Malia, 15, and says she is basing her opinion of her own experiences.  “I found that to be the case with my kids,” Obama says. “They just want you near, you know – they want that advice from a parent. They want to see you on a daily basis, because the thing is he’s still a kid. He’s still growing up. So, I would pull him close.”  Mrs. Obama is somewhat alone in that opinion, though. Over 250,000 citizens have signed a petition to have Bieber deported to Canada . White House Press Secretary Jay Carney says an official response is on the way soon. Which is legally required when a petition earns that many signatures. And which is totally hilarious.
