Hairspray went live on NBC last night. The latest small screen musical production starred Maddie Baillio, Jennifer Hudson, Ariana Grande, Harvey Fierstein, Martin Short, Kristin Chenoweth, Garrett Clayton, Dove Cameron and Derek Hough, among others. What were the best moments? What were the worst moments? Which moments have left our eyebrows permanent scrunched in confusion? Let's GIF this up for the answers, shall we? 1. … And We’re Off! It can’t be easy to sing while lying down. This could explain a few missed lyrics off the bat by Baillio. 2. HEY! And the Best Television Introduction of 2016 Goes To… 3. Let’s Do The Twist! Derek Hough was literally born to play this role, don’t you think? 4. Best Use of the Split Screen Since 24 And no way could Jack Bauer sing like this. 5. Dove Cameron FTW! We didn’t even know who Dove Cameron was before. But we do now. 6. Mannequin Challenge Extended… … and accepted, apparently. View Slideshow
In a recent interview following the Teen Mom OG reunion brawl, Farrah Abraham bafflingly went after Kailyn Lowry and Chelsea Houska. Neither of whom are on that show. According to Farrah, both of the aforementioned Teen Mom 2 stars got pregnant a second time to boost their profiles and become more famous. Kailyn responded to the comment , pointing out that both she and Chelsea got pregnant with their second children when they were in their 20s. And in committed relationships … and already starring on a reality show. Of course, Farrah doesn’t “do” facts and logic, as we know. So instead of replying with a reasonable counter-argument, she called Kailyn a “puppet” of the company that produces Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 . In the early stages of the feud, Chelsea Houska, who is expecting her second child and first with Cole De Boer, remained silent. No longer. Last night, she acknowledged it for the first time, but in keeping with her reputation as the most emotionally stable mom in the franchise. Chelsea stopped short of fully jumping into the fray and indulging in some hardcore Farrah-bashing of her own. Asked on Twitter if she had seen what Abraham was saying in the wake of the reunion, Chelsea replied simply: “Kail just showed me hahaha.” Obviously, the laugh is in reference to the absurdity of Farrah, but its worth noting that Chelsea refrained from taking any real jabs of her own. Her father, Randy Houska, however? Farrah Abraham & Amber Portwood FIGHT at Teen Mom Reunion! WATCH NOW! Randy has a reputation for rushing to his daughter’s defense, and it seems her latest dust-up has definitely caught his attention. “#hilarious I wonder exactly which TM would do ANYTHING to be famous,” Randy tweeted yesterday. “Chelsea flies so far under the radar, @MTV forgets about her #teenmom2” Farrah’s been uncharacteristically quiet on social media the past 24 hours, perhaps finally sensing that she’s badly outnumbered and outwitted. Or maybe she’s just regrouping, brainstorming, and spending an entire day and a half composing the ultimate take-down tweet. We’re sure we’ll find out soon enough. Based on her recent descriptions of her co-stars as “stooges,” whom she’d like to “slug,” we’re guessing Farrah will be doubling down. Just a hunch. Call us crazy. Seriously, can you see her reversing her opinion of her co-stars any time soon and showing any sort of humility or apology? Farrah endorsed Donald Trump for president during the 2016 campaign, and it seems she’s taken a page from her political idol’s book. When it comes to social media beefs: Never surrender, no matter how insanely petty the feud, or how massive the waste of your time. The PEOTUS would be proud if he were to watch Teen Mom OG online and observe just how absurd a human being Farrah really is. Alas, he’s too busy watching SNL. View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham: A Ridiculous, Sometimes X-Rated Life in GIFs Farrah’s co-star Maci Bookout also weighed in, briefly, following Kailyn Lowry’s rebuttal of Abraham, and is clearly on the same page. Kailyn wrote, “wondering why I’m being brought up in Farrah’s interviews… the rest of us support each other. Maybe she’s the problem.” Maci’s reply: “Common denominator.” Truth.
Yesterday, we had the immense pleasure of seeing the new trailer for Fifty Shades Darker , the action-packed, drama-filled, sex-tastic sequel to the massive hit, Fifty Shades of Grey. And oh, the feelings we had … In Fifty Shades Darker , our heroine, Anastasia Steele, starts off feeling a little freaked out by Christian Grey's freakiness, but so much hardship ends up bringing them back together. And there's also the sex. We can never, ever forget that. Hey, when you find a guy who leaves butt plugs out for his maid to sanitize and who will actually reach inside your vagina to pull out your tampon so you can have period sex, you hold on and never let go, right? But even though we're still so excited from seeing the trailer, it will still be a couple of long, hard, lonely months until the actual movie comes out. So you probably want to check out these magical GIFs from the trailer in the meantime, right? 1. Christian Grey Has Many Muscles Yes, Christian Grey has several issues, but he probably has more muscles! You can see at least a dozen or so in this GIF. Not that you’ll be counting though, right? Of course not — everybody knows brains don’t work properly around sexy sadists! 2. SHOWER SEX This is one scene that’s sure to inspire emotion in literally everyone. Either you’re way into it for the obvious reasons, you pervs, you’re interested in getting a close look at Christian’s ridiculously huge shower, or you care about the environement. The least they could do is take their clothes off so they could actually bathe too, you know. 3. Christian Grey Actually Feels A Feeling! We know, we know, Christian is “50 shades of f-cked up,” but check out the little guy here! In this very special moment, you see that Anastasia is changing him, that she has helped him to develop the ability to smile. Romance! 4. Oh No, A Helicopter Crash! Hey, being sexy isn’t only about genitals and feelings! Intense action can also be sexy, and if you don’t think Mr. Grey himself crashing a damn helicopter is sexy, then check yourself. 5. Boats Are Magical Look at Christian’s smile, guys, and Anastasia’s look of total pleasure. Did she see a dolphin? She probably saw a dolphin. HOT. 6. The Old-Fashioned Elevator Grope Because what’s sexier than being in a small, enclosed space full of strangers, you know? Like, can you think of a BETTER place for your emotionally damaged and controlling boyfriend to grab himself a handful of you? We’ll wait. View Slideshow
For the past several months, we as a people have been so endlessly and thoroughly tormented by Donald Trump and everything he stands for. It’s been bad. Real bad. We’ve been exposed to all those horrible things he’s said ever since people started paying attention to those moments when he opens his mouth and pure terror falls out. We’ve been hearing about his countless wrongdoings, including his alleged sexual assaults and his sexist, racist, homophobic actions. So did the universe finally decide to throw us a bone? Did some higher power decide to look down on us in mercy, to give us just the tiniest bit of hope? Nah, the universe laughed, said “try this on for size, bitches,” and threw Kid Rock into the mix. What did we do that was so wrong as to deserve this? Kid Rock, as you can probably imagine, is a loud and proud Trump supporter. It makes sense: after all, he is the guy who told everyone who questioned his love of the Confederate flag to “kiss my ass.” He also once said that if someone tried to tell him that he couldn’t use the word “gay” to be a synonym for “bad,” then that person could “go f-ck themselves.” “You’re not going to get anything politically correct out of me,” he said, and he wasn’t lying. These days though, Kid Rock has been finding a lot of joy in this one Photoshopped image that’s been making its way across the parts of the internet that regularly care about Kid Rock. In the photo, he’s wearing a t-shirt that shows a map of the U.S. The red states, the states that voted for Trump, are referred to as the United States of America, while the blue states have been so charmingly renamed “Dumbf-ckistan.” The shirt wasn’t real, it was just a product of some sad, misguided soul’s imagination, but Kid Rock liked it so much that he decided to make it real. And now you can buy it on his website. “Due to overwhelming demand,” he explained on his Facebook page, “we decided to go ahead and actually make this and other current event merch.” And that is why, if you really want to do so, you can hop online and buy the Dumbf-ckistan shirt, as well as this one: “God, Guns, & Trump,” right? What could be … better? More American? We’re not sure why he’s lumping those three things together, but don’t worry, this other shirt is a little more clear in its meaning: “_onald Trump: The ‘D’ Is Missing Because It’s In Every Hater’s Mouth.” Someone actually thought that thought and then pitched it to people who thought “Yeah, let’s slap that on a t-shirt and ask $24.99 for it.” We are doomed. We are so. Doomed. View Slideshow: 13 Stars Who Are Actually Happy Donald Trump is President
The NBC drama This Is Us has proven to be one of the few network success stories of the fall TV season. In an era of reboots, sequel series, and low-budget reality television, This Is Us feels like a throwback to a bygone era: A critically beloved, intimate family drama that emphasizes intensely personal storylines and skilled performances over gimmicks and special effects. While Mandy Moore, Milo Ventimiglia and Sterling K. Hayden seem to be receiving the majority of the acclaim, relative unknown Chrissy Metz has also emerged as a favorite of viewers and critics alike. Metz’s character, Kate, struggles to lose weight, and there’s a storyline in which Kate decides to undergo gastric bypass surgery. In a recent interview with People magazine, Metz indicated that she signed a contract stipulating that she and Kate would be taking the same weight loss journey: “It’s definitely a conversation that we’ve had, and it’s in my contract,” she said, adding that both she and her character would be shedding pounds “in a healthy manner.” Not surprisingly, the statement has met with a fair amount of controversy, as many expressed shock that NBC would require than an actress lose weight before she could sign on to accept a role. Now, Metz is clarifying the matter and insisting that she merely misspoke when she referenced her contract: “It wasn’t mandated in the contract, and I probably — if I ever said the word contract, I didn’t mean it in that way,” she said while speaking to People at an event in LA on Friday, “I was pitched that the trajectory of Kate is that she’s going to lose weight. That is who and what’s going on.” Metz says there is no requirement that she lose weight or get down to a certain size, but adds that she plans to use her character’s arc as an added incentive for her own weight loss goals: “Why not have a motivation beyond me to get to a healthy weight?” she said. “Every actor does that. We’re chameleons. We change, we grow as an actor… you lose weight, you gain weight, you change your hair or whatever.” Best of luck to Ms. Metz, whatever her fitness goals may be! Watch This Is Us online at TV Fanatic to see why she’s become the fall’s standout star.
Kylie Jenner has gotten nearly naked in two new photos posted on her Instagram account. We know, we know: What’s newsworthy about that? At this point, we should really only alert readers to the few times where Kylie Jenner does NOT get nearly naked. But did we mention that she’s posing with a giant snake that runs the length of her body this time around? Because she is. The 19-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians actress offered up a tease of her new calendar to followers on Sunday, sharing a couple images from the pictorial recently snapped by controversial photographer Terry Richardson. He’s best known for taking pictures of young female celebrities in various states of undress. The cover of this 2017 calendar features Kylie with blonde hair, rocking lacy black lingerie and a crown for some reason. The back calendar cover, meanwhile, depicts the reality star lying on her stomach, hand propping her head up… with a boa constrictor draped across her lower back and legs. “I want to keep the rest of the photos a secret, because I want you guys to be surprised,” Kylie previewed as a caption, turning her attention to Richardson and adding: “So f–king bomb, Terry!” The calendar features “all exclusive Terry photos,” as teased on KylieJennerShop.com, which is where the item will be on sale, starting December 10. “Check out my snapchat for a preview xoxo!” Kylie told Instagram followers who may be interested in this calendar as a stocking stuffer. (Richardson has worked in the past with Khloe Kardashian, Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Kanye West. (He also photographed Kylie for Galore’s September 2015 issue, published a mere month after she became a legal adult. How sweet.) Jenner shared the racy snapshots on the heels of a few other racy snapshots. Over the weekend, Kylie showed off her mansion and her body via a set of thong bikini-themed photographs . Yes, that really is the teenager’s home in the background. Although were guessing that your attention isn’t exactly on the building in this picture, is it? The pictures have also gone viral in the wake of a new Kylie Jenner pregnant rumor . But there’s a twist to this one: according to Starcasm sources, Kylie may have been cheating on Tyga with a rapper named Savage 21 (not his real name) and the bun in her oven actually belongs to him , not to Tyga. How scandalous! If true, that is. We somehow doubt that it is. What do you think? Is Kylie pregnant? With another man’s baby? If so, you should savor photos such as the ones posted above. You may not be seeing similar ones from Kylie Jenner in 2017 as her alleged baby bump grows. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Selfies: A Kandid Kollection
According to an earlier report, Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian will get married on July 17, 2017. Why? Because Rob is reportedly a huge fan of the number-seven. But Kardashian and his bride-to-be are even bigger fans of cold hard cash, TMZ alleges, which is why this wedding date may not be as set in stone as previously believed. Yes, the reality stars are committed to each other. Yes, they are living under one roof again after becoming parents last month when Blac Chyna gave birth to a girl named Dream Kardashian . So why haven’t they sent out wedding invitations just yet? Why isn’t Chyna posting photos on social media of her dress fittings? Because the couple is still awaiting the best offer. Sources tell TMZ that Chyna and Rob have NOT signed a deal with E! that requires them to get married on television. But that doesn’t mean the celebrities are very open to the idea, as long as the price is right. Chyna and Rob have already agreed to terms on a baby special that will air the night of Sunday, December 18. It will take viewers behind the scenes of their first few weeks as parents, a time that has reportedly gone far more smoothly than many had believed it would go. The new father and mother are not fighting. Instead, they have been drawn closer by the baby, teaming up to help one another navigate the often-difficult first few weeks of parenthood. This is why Chyna and Rob are more anxious than ever to make it official. They are ready to be husband and wife and have a few wedding venues in mind. View Slideshow: Dream Kardashian Photos: What a Cutie! However, they have not yet locked anything down yet because they want to first negotiate a possible televised wedding deal. We’d have to assume any marriage special would air on E! and we’d have to assume it will air some time in mid-2017. We’d also have to assume it will lead to a divorce between Rob and Chyna because… come on. How many couples that getting married on TV actually make it?!? Then again, what were the odds that Rob and Chyna would have made it anyway? They might as well earn as much bank as they can until their inevitable break-up, right? We’re being a tad negative here, we know. And we hope we’re wrong because there’s now a baby in the mix and it’s more important than ever that Rob and Chyna put all issues behind them. They must raise a child together now. View Slideshow: Kardashian Breakups and Makeups: A Romantic Rewind But still. We’re not optimistic. Would you tune in to watch Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna get married on television?
If Donald Trump really wants to irritate Alec Baldwin, he'll stop making fun of how the actor portrays him on Saturday Night Live. By taking this tact, Trump has given Baldwin plenty of ammunition to fire back on Twitter, while also helping the ratings for this NBC sketch comedy show increase dramatically. So if Trump truly wants to piss Baldwin off, he'll stop with his inane Tweeting about SNL and start with some inappropriate Tweeting about Ireland Baldwin. The 21-year old is featured in Love Magazine's latest advent calendar, promoting the item in a new video that can only be described with for letters: NSFW. Set the Madonna's hit single “Cherish,” the following video depicts Baldwin on the beach. She's wearing a Coach trench coat… at first. But she then discards this piece of attire to reveal some seriously sexy satin undergarments. From there, Baldwin rolls around in the sand, strips off her top and runs into the ocean. Others slated to appear for the calendar videos this year include Alessandra Ambrosio, Ciara, Chrissy Teigen, Emily Ratajkowski, Gigi Hadid, Hailey Baldwin, Heidi Klum, Karlie Kloss, Kendall Jenner, Kim Kardashian , Paris Hilton, Sofia Richie and Suki Waterhouse. We can only imagine how much racier these clips will get. Check out Ireland's version below:
Rumors that Kylie Jenner is pregnant seem to surface about once a month. This time, however, there’s an interesting twist to the probably untrue but nonetheless amusing reports. According to several media outlets, Kylie is involved with a new dude , and thus, might be knocked up with said new dude’s baby. It seems Kylie’s love for D-list rappers knows no bounds, and she’s been spending a lot of time with a hip hop artist named 21 Savage, who’s not to be confused with the band Twenty One Pilots, or the hashtag “#savage,” which we’re told is something the kids like to say. Anyway, Mr. Savage is both slightly younger and slightly more popular than Tyga, which would obviously make him an attractive prospect to Kylie. At 24, he’s only five years older than Kylizzle, and with his single “X”, he has a hit that’s approximately five years younger than Tyga’s only successful track. Sources say 21 swooped in around the time of the most recent Kylie-Tyga breakup . Interestingly, sources say his timing coincided with a pregnancy scare. According to Life & Style , the news that Kylie might be knocked up led to the couple parting ways for reasons that aren’t entirely clear: “[Kylie and Tyga] always talked about having babies together but this was real,” says one insider. “While it was exciting [for Kylie], it was really frightening, too….They’d made a pact that if she got pregnant they would get married. Instead, they broke up.” So it sounds like Kylie briefly thought she was pregnant, broke up with Tyga, hooked up with Savage, and then got back together with Tyga. Still, it’s not hard to see how some folks might have misread the situation and believed that Kylie cheated on Tyga , or even that she was pregnant with Savage’s baby. The important thing is that Kylie is obviously planning to carry on the family tradition of bizarre, high-profile relationship drama. Forget Keeping Up , this girl’s life could sustain a daily reality soap opera. Someone get Kylie on the phone! We have an idea she might be interested in!

Kourtney Kardashian is easily the most innocuous Kardashian happening, but the picture she shared on her Instagram page is bad news. The eldest Kardashian posted a pic of Kourtney’s four-year-old daughter, Penelope , wearing a pair of her mother’s heels while walking down the steps, and truth be told, there are some grown-ass adults out there who can’t do heels on stairs. A four-year-old? Train ’em up young, we suppose. The little ones in the Kardashian family are still Kardashians after all, and who else is going to pass the torch anyway? We won’t even talk about Penelope’s myriad braids — which, guys, she’s not responsible for — because everybody’s pretty sure that’s called ” Kardashian cultural appropriation ,” which they’re good at, and nobody wants to open that can of worms. Most of the Kardashians/Jenners have donned dreadlocks and box braids and everything in between, so perhaps a four-year-old child should get a break, considering she likely doesn’t do her own hair. Those people who can’t walk down a staircase in heels are also likely to be the ones who can’t even braid their own hair, so we doubt a four-year-old could pull off that feat, despite being stair-agile. Some of the comments are positive — one read, “Slay, P, slay!” while another one said the little girl was very beautiful. Another comment was a little more on the critical side, reading, “That’s freaking killing me.” “A grown woman can barely walk stairs in heels,” the follower concluded. Though the post hasn’t even been up for a few hours, we’re positive it’s going to gain some traction — and attention — whether Kourt likes it or not. But hey. It would seem that Kourtney and Scott are back together these days, so perhaps she’s got other things on her mind besides preventing nasty falls in the house, or being accused of ripping off another culture’s traditions. Reported earlier, it seemed just about confirmed that Kourtney and Scott were shacking up and giving their love another shot — yet again — which came on the heels of Kourtney purportedly pushing for marriage. The couple have been together — on and off — since 2007, so there is a bit of history there. Disturbed, unbalanced history, but history nonetheless. And kids. Three of ’em. Good luck to the family, and Kourtney, sweetie, watch your baby on those stairs, okay? Hell’s bells. View Slideshow: 15 Reasons Why The Kids Are The Best Part of KUWTK
