You may want to sit down for this: On last night’s episode of Teen Mom , Farrah Abraham demonstrated that she’s not exactly the kindest, most compassionate human on the planet. Much of the episode focused on Farrah’s astonishingly rude treatment of Simon Saran. If you watch Teen Mom OG online , you know that volatility within that relationship is nothing new. And if you keep up with Farrah’s social media pages or the frequent tabloid reports are the troubled reality star, you know that controversies surrounding Farrah and her 7-year-old daughter, Sophia, are also old hat at this point. However, Farrah’s notorious temper is usually directed at the grownups in her life, such as Saran, and her long-suffering (though often insufferable) mother, Deborah. However, last night’s episode (which you can watch below) revealed a different, more troubling side of Farrah’s tendency toward irrational rage: Watch Teen Mom OG Season 3 Episode 4 Online Prior to an Easter egg hunt, Sophia complained of feeling ill, prompting her mother to unleash a tirade of what some have described as verbally abusive language: “I don’t know why Sophia needs to act like a heathen, get up there,” Abraham said , pushing her daughter up the stairs. “Sophia is too stupid to get ready,” Farrah then remarked to her mother. It’s not my issue right now.” When Deborah prompted Farrah to go easy on her daughter, Farrah remarked: “I gave her medicine. I already did that stuff. It’s ridiculous how she’s acting. Between the two of you I don’t know what’s more irritating.” Not surprisingly, Teen Mom fans proceeded to go off on Farrah on social media: “Definition of a bad mom? Farrah Abraham,” one viewer tweeted. “How can you call your daughter stupid?!” “Anyone else’s heart break when Farrah Abraham through [sic] her sick daughter up the steps? Your kid is a CHILD. Not a servant,” another commented. Amazingly, for once, Farrah actually saw the error of her ways and issued a semi-apology in an interview with Radar Online: Farrah explained that to her mind, “stupid” isn’t necessarily an insult. “I can be stupid, anyone can act stupid,” Abraham told the website. “I keep it real. I’m not allowing my daughter to be spoiled or not responsible for her actions.” View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham Parenting Fails: A Brief History of WTF?! Like we said, controversies involving Farrah and Sophia are nothing new, but usually they stem from the fact that Farrah seems to regard her only child as more of a friend than a daughter. Farrah’s endorsement of Sophia’s modeling career has been a particular subject of criticism. Now, however, it seems that Sophia isn’t immune to being subjected to her mother’s fits of rage. Hopefully, Farrah will take a lesson from this incident and bear in mind that her daughter is not, in fact, a grown-up who can simply bounce back after being publicly berated.
Teyana Taylor And Iman Shumpert Spark Elopement Rumors We love a cute couple story and watching Iman Shumpert and Teyana Taylor interact this weekend in Atlanta has been quite a sight to behold. The power pair wore matching print turbans Sunday night as they joined friends Ludacris, Lance Gross, Karrueche, Jessica White and more for a Ludaday Weekend event at Top Golf. Teyana recently sparked rumors that the pair might have already jumped the broom when she referred to Shump as her “husband” during an interview with Angie Martinez : When speaking about the shower scene at the end of the video, she said, “What makes it even doper is that he [Kanye] didn’t put me in a position where I was with a male model or male actor. There was trust and comfort and protection because I knew I was with a person that I’m already becoming one with.” She continued: “To have that moment with him, only made that moment so much sexier, so much more genuine, so much more pure. You felt it off the screen. When I watched it, I felt the love because it was something that I shared with my husband.” Tey soon started talking about how Iman felt about the video when it premiered at the 2016 VMAs. “He just kept saying how happy he was for me. He kept asking if I was ready because he said, once this video drops, once it’s out here, it’s about to go down. He was dying though,” she admitted. Then she added: “Most importantly, he’s my biggest supporter. I’m pretty sure there was no telling what was going through his mind [at the shoot] as he had to stand in front of a whole cast of people in a shower. He’s a very private person. But even if he was uncomfortable with certain things, I would’ve never known. That’s what you call a supporter. ‘This moment is about my wife and that’s all that matters.’” While we are all excited for Iman and Teyana to make it official, you know BOSSIP had to get to the bottom of this one. Sources tell BOSSIP the couple is not married YET! “They’re planning it for next summer.” Congrats again to the happy couple!
When players return to the game, it makes for a huge change in the dynamics of the house. Victor Aroyo fought his way back into the game just a few weeks ago. He was understandably a bit annoyed at being blindsided once again from the game. If anyone deserves to be there, it’s Victor. He’s a competition and social beast. That’s why James ultimately made the decision to oust him from the game. James’ decision to evict him would have been a good one if there was no way he was returning to the game. We picked up with the houseguests at the HOH/Juror competition. There’s no denying the wall competitions are the toughest on the show. Da’vonne and Zakiyah clearly made a pact before the competition that they would drop together and that they did. the practically threw their chance at the $500,000 prize away. Da’vonne returning to the game would signal a huge shift. She would be targeting the likes of Nicole and Corey for eviction. It’s just a shame she and Zakiyah decided to ride out the rest of their Big Brother experience in the jury house. Poor Bridgette was the final girl standing, but it was clear her knee was still busted from her injury a few weeks ago. That left it all down to Victor and Paulie to fight it out. Eventually, Paulie had to drop down and it meant Victor was the returning juror. No one has ever returned to the game twice in one season, so the dude is now on his third attempt at the money. The other houseguests should just give up at this stage. We were treated to a flashback from before Thursday’s live eviction. Paul called Michelle the c-word and it was meant with a harsh response from their fellow houseguests. Meech decided to be the bigger person and just walk out of the situation, while James went to battle with Paul. Paul was quick to point out that Natalie and James make all of the same decisions. Natalie chimed in, saying that she didn’t want Bridgette evicted and it happened on James’ HOH. James then dropped the bomb that he’s not made a decision about evicting Corey. Nicole was furious and told Corey she was worried about whether she would be alone in the game after the eviction. Corey reassured her and as we know, James kept his word. If you recall, he almost sent Corey home at the live vote, so his mind wasn’t really made up until he went in to vote. This gave Nicole the want to succeed, so she went all out in the HOH competition and even indulged in some manipulating. It came down to Nicole and James and she managed to get James to throw it to her. She promised both him and Natalie safety for the week. She made it seem like all she wanted was the letter from home, but it was clear she knew she needed to win to keep both her and Corey safe from eviction. James dropped down, giving Nicole her first HOH win of the season. It also makes me wonder whether Nicole has been throwing competitions all season long in order to appear as less of a target. If that’s the case, she might find herself winning the whole thing. She’s not sat on the block once this season and has had a hand in most of the evictions. Maybe Derrick gave her some pointers before she entered the game. We’ll probably never know. Nicole was quick to tell Corey she might not keep her word to James. She knows James never stuck to his earlier in the season, so she has a great case to put him up. Nicole then claimed the best person to evict is Michelle and Corey agreed. Heck, even Victor and Paul showed up to agree she was the best target. That’s when the four of them made an alliance that would take them to the end of the season. It seems like Nicole and Corey are happy to play for third and fourth place. They just don’t want people who don’t deserve it to get further. That’s a good mentality to take. View Slideshow: 12 Big Brother Houseguests We Loved… Or Loved to Hate The Final Four alliance was formed, while Natalie continued to pester James about him finding away to save both of them. Yes, Natalie was not impressed that James gave Nicole the win because she doesn’t trust her. James made it clear that Nicole would stick to her word. It seems like she might, to an extent. Paul agreed to go up on the block, with Michelle as the target. Nicole’s ideal scenario would be for Victor to win and take Paul down. That would pave the way for either James or Natalie to go up and one of them would be evicted. It all sounds pretty intriguing. It’s odd that Nicole is now going back to the person we loved on Big Brother 16. It’s so close to the end of the game, so it would be great to see her get far if she continues to play. America’s care package was a bit of a wet blanket this week. Corey won $5000 to bribe on of his houseguests to do something. It would be valid right up to the conclusion of the next HOH competition. It would be great if he got someone to throw the HOH, but there’s a slim chance anyone would agree to do that. Nicole nominated Michelle and Paul for eviction. Michelle admitted afterwards that she would have done the same if she was Nicole. She’s been targeting her for weeks. What do you think about the latest developments in the house? Is Nicole right to target Michelle? Hit the comments below! View Slideshow: 13 Reality Show Villains You Really Love to Hate
One of our favorite celebrities on the entire planet turns 24 years old today. Won’t you join us in honoring Demi Lovato? The singer celebrates her birthday on August 20 and we’re only too happy to celebrate Lovato on a constant basis. Why? First, because she’s pretty talented. Lovato writes a lot of her own material and puts on a pretty great show, as millions of young fans who have attended her concerts can attest to. But that’s only the beginning. Lovato is truly one of our role models in Hollywood because she is never afraid to speak her mind. Not even a quarter-century old yet, Demi has been through more in her short life than most people will go through in eight decades. As Lovato has no problem talking about, she spent several weeks in rehab toward the end of 2010, battling an addiction to various drugs as well as an eating disorder. Since that time, to use a cliche, Lovato has been committed to keeping it real. View Slideshow: 22 Times Demi Lovato Has Kept It Real Ask her about being anorexic? Lovato will explain what life was like for her back in the day. Bring up her hard drug use? Lovato will tell you how she used to sneak cocaine on to airplanes . Has she been diagnosed as bipolar? Yes, and Lovato will talk openly about how this still affects her to this day. The artist is unafraid to touch on these topics because she wants to set a positive example to anyone who has ever suffered through any of these problems. As a result, Lovato has been given a national platform at times. She actually delivered a brief speech and performed at the 2016 Democratic National Convention last month. Here is what she said: Demi Lovato Talks Mental Illness at Democratic National Convention Pretty cool, huh? It’s hard to imagine Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber or Selena Gomez ever being invited to do such a thing, isn’t it? And that’s not a slight by any means. They are mostly performers who do their job very, very well. But Lovato has become more than just a performer. She clearly aims to do more than just sell a bunch of albums. And that is why we love her. View Slideshow: Demi Lovato Tattoos: Which is Your Favorite? “I lived fast and I was going to die young,” Lovato recently told American Way . “I didn’t think I would make it to 21.” She went on to talk about her self-medication with alcohol, cocaine and OxyContin back in the day. However, Demi added that she took her last drink in January of 2012 and continues to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. “When I have meet-and-greets, I can’t tell you the amount of times that girls will show me their arms covered in scars or cuts,” Lovato explained to American Way, having been a cutter herself as a youngster. “They’ll tell me, ‘You helped me get through this. Because of you, I stopped self-harming,’ or ‘I got sober.’ “Hearing those things gave my life new meaning… “At times I was resentful for having that kind of responsibility. But now, it’s really become a part of my life. It holds me accountable.” And there it is. What else is there to say? HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEMI LOVATO!

Dear Bossip , I’m in love and I don’t know what to do about it. I met this guy four years ago through some mutual friends and we immediately connected. We were hanging out all the time kissing and just enjoying each other’s company, but we weren’t exclusively together until two years later. I had realized I loved him, but I didn’t say anything and to my surprise he asked me to be his girlfriend. Shortly after, I gave him my virginity. I ended up having to break up with him a month later because he had quickly changed in the relationship, and I got the feeling he didn’t want to be in it anymore. We continued a sexual relationship as well as hanging out together as friends. I tried to end the sexual part multiple times, but he always pulled me back in. We dated other people off and on, but we always came back to each other when we were single. He even tried to fool around with me while he was in a relationship. Almost every other girl he’s dated has either lied to him, cheated on him, or used him in some way. I’ve told him that I loved him and I wanted more than just friends with benefits and he’s told me things like, “I have a weakness for you,” and, “I have feelings for you,” and, “I’m glad you told me,” but nothing came of it. In June, we had a big fight and didn’t speak for a month. During this time we also moved to different states. He texted me in July asking if we could go back to the way we were. When I asked what changed his mind, he said, “his feelings for me.” I told him I loved him, but I couldn’t go back because he’s hurt me too much. He said, “Ok, I understand,” and that was that. It is now almost three months later and we still haven’t spoken. Recently, he’ll get online and ‘like’ one of my pictures and then post sad love songs right after. I still have not reached out in any way, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss our friendship. I was considering reaching out to him simply as a friend. I figured I wouldn’t have to worry about our friendship becoming about sex again since we are in two different states. My friend believes three months is not long enough for him to miss me and change. I just really want another opinion. Should I reach out and try to just be friends? – Tired and Confused Dear Ms. Tired and Confused , If he really loved you and wanted to be with you, then he would be there with you. Or, he would make a way for you to be with him. I’m sorry, ma’am, but a man who says he’s in love and really wants his woman, he will make a way to be with her no matter the distance, or obstacle. He will get to her. What I suspect is that he knows that you’re available, and will always be available for him. Yes, you allow yourself to be ready, willing, and available whenever he calls. You keep calling this relationship a ‘friendship,’ and in actuality it is a sexual relationship. You are not friends. So, please stop saying that. You want something more, and you want him to be your man. Therefore, you can’t claim you are friends when you keep sleeping with him. You want a relationship, and I’m sorry to say, but he doesn’t. Thus, he keeps you in this rollercoaster emotional game of going up and down with his charade, when in actuality he is not interested in a serious relationship with you. He likes what you and he have and that is a sexual relationship. You are convenient sex for him, and he can’t tell you that is what you are for him because you have stated to him that you want something more, and not just to be his bed buddy. You see, having sex with someone is a spiritual connection. You become spiritually connected with someone, and you have to be very careful of those you spread your legs and allow to enter you. In the sex act between men and women, men are givers, and women are receivers. Men deposit into women, and women receive a man’s energy and spirit. And, it is also vice-versa. Women give to men, and transfer their spirit and energy to men. By inviting him into you, you are welcoming him and giving yourself to him. So, when relationships end, it is necessary to cleanse and heal yourself emotionally, mentally, and physically. Otherwise, that person’s spirit will linger in you and it will be difficult to remove yourself from them, such as in your case. I am sure this is emotionally taxing for you, but you have to stop investing in him and in something that will never manifest. This relationship has run its course. And, please stop deceiving yourself that you and he can ever be friends. That will never happen. You can’t separate your feelings for him, and neither your emotional and physical connection from him. You are too invested, too connected, and too involved to simply be his friend. You can’t do it. Look at your past with him. You keep letting him back into your life. You won’t allow yourself to be alone, and to remove yourself from him emotionally, mentally, or physically. You’re always sleeping with him and having sex. You’re never just his friend. Now, you’re asking me if you should reach out to him after you haven’t heard from him in nearly three months since he reached out to you via text and said he wanted to go back to the way things used to be. Girl, he texted you. He didn’t call you. He didn’t come visit you. He texted you. And, when you said you couldn’t go back, he responded by saying he understood, and you haven’t heard from him since. It’s been nearly three months and you haven’t heard from him, and you’re wondering if you should reach out to rekindle a friendship. Sigh. I can’t. Ma’am, you need to let it go. Let him go. Stop waiting, hoping, and wishing that this turn into something like it was, or he will be the man that you want. He isn’t, and he won’t. Your relationship ran its course. It didn’t work. Why do you keep going back to something that ended? Why are you revisiting the past? He’s shown you who he is, and what he is about? He is unable to commit. He hasn’t made any effort to be in a relationship, nor has he made any effort to be with you faithfully. He’s moved on, and so should you. He’s living his life, and he’s keeping you in his rolodex because why would he give up some steady sex? He is no fool. But, you are. Stop allowing him to play with your heart and emotions. As a matter of fact, how about you stop being a doormat and get up from the ground. He can’t walk over you if you won’t lay down for him. – Terrance Dean ***(Attention all media/news outlets, if you use this story and letter, or any parts of this content for your outlets you must give credit to this site, the columnist, and his advice)** Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?

The Kardashians are not impressed with Blac Chyna! Is it throwback Thursday, or something? If you thought the drama between the Kardashians and Rob's fiancè, Blac Chyna was over, you were sadly mistaken. If you recall, Chyna released her line of emojis back in May. There was one Chymoji that caused a storm. It had a chick who looked like Kylie Jenner getting slapped across the face. Keeping Up with the Kardashians is finally catching up to that moment and the family are totally not amused. Might the reaction to the emojis be worse than their reaction to Rob being engaged to Blac? How would you feel if someone dissed your family member by making an emoji about them? If you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online , you'll know that Chyna has had beef with the Kardashians in the past, so it came as no surprise that she would take cheap jabs at them. Kylie is currently dating Chyna's ex, Tyga. Could this have all stemmed from that? Quite possibly. Either way, both Khloe and Kourtney will air their feelings about the whole thing on the next episode of the reality series. “Are you upset that Chyna made an emoji about you?” Khloe Kardashian asks Kylie in the clip. Khloe has always been one to speak her mind, so expect her to find a way to get back at Chyna. There's no denying that it's been a rocky road to welcome Blac into the Kardashian family. Could this put all of that in jeopardy? “Just when everyone was welcoming Chyna into the family, this comes out,” notes Kourtney. Meanwhile, Kylie doesn't seem fazed about the matter.
Genevieve Morton is on a mission to get people to care about her – and she’s taken my advice by hitting the fucking gym – because there was a year or two where she was following her nemesis’ big titty lead – we call it “doing the kate upton” where she just got fatter and fatter – but thanks to not being in SI Swim, the only thing she’s ever done, and a little body shaming – led to some cross fit – and good eating – and a little effort – she looks like a totally different person, still has great tits…which is more evidence than we needed that choosing health and fitness – makes you easier to jerk off to – that dying and fat – but not quite up there with skinny and on hard drugs – too weak to run….you see cuz strong girls can hurt me when I call them names…and I’m not into getting hurt…I mean unless it was from Genevieve Morton looking like this – suffocating me out sitting on my face… I guess what I am saying is that – at 29 – hit the fucking gym instead of giving up and you’ll have another year barely working as a model…as people will appreciate staring at the tits… The post Genevieve Morton Getting Naked of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepfather .
