Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert Issue Divorce Statement: Not the Future We Envisioned…

Earlier today, the world learned that beloved country superstars Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert are getting divorced . While no reason for the split has been revealed as of yet, the couple issued a joint statement moments ago confirming that they’re ending their four-year marriage and asking fans to respect their privacy. “It is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately,” the statement reads.  “We are real people, with real lives, with real families, friends and colleagues. Therefore, we kindly ask for privacy and compassion concerning this very personal matter.” While many of the singers’ adoring fans will no doubt be happy to comply with their request, there’s bound to be plenty of speculation in the coming weeks regarding what exactly caused the country couple to part ways. Years ago, there were rumors that Shelton’s drinking had Miranda at her wits end. In recent months, however, several tabloids reversed the roles and claimed that Lambert’s alcoholism was to blame for the couple’s problems. Back in March, several media outlets reported that Lambert was caught cheating on Shelton with country singer Chris Young. Lambert denied the reports, but insiders say she and Shelton began living separate lives shortly thereafter. Whatever the case, we may never know what exactly prompted Blake and Miranda to call it quits, but we do know that plenty of country music fans will be listening to the Shelton and Lambert’s most heart-wrenching breakup ballads tonight.  View Slideshow: Miranda Lambert & Blake Shelton: Through the Years

Kendra Wilkinson Grills Hank Baskett on Logistics of Ava London Hand Job

Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett have a message to anyone who believes they are faking their ongoing marital struggles : Fake THIS!!!! WEtv has released a pair of clips from this Friday’s new episode of Marriage Boot Camp… and they are crazy intense! Hank Baskett Confesses to Kendra: Part 1 In the first sneak peek, a teary-eyed Hank can barely hold himself together while Kendra asks him once and for all to confess his infidelity sins. Did he really receive a hand job from transgender model Ava London? Has he been lying to her this entire time? What, Hank, actually happened in that hotel room?!? Watch as Baskett cries his way through a confessional that mirrors the story he told a few weeks ago about being fondled over his shorts by London . Hank Baskett Confesses to Kendra: Part 2 But was it really over his shorts? Did her hand make its way (GASP!) under his shorts?!? Again: WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT HOTEL ROOM, HANK?!? Kendra presses this question in the second clip above, trying to figure out how to parse Baskett’s non-committed answer. Baskett and Wilkinson have milked this affair (or whatever one wants to call it) for well over a year now. It all started when Ava London claimed , in no uncertain terms, that she and Hank brought each other to orgasm on at least one occasion. She has made their affair sound very much like an affair. But the videos featured here tell Hank’s side of the story – and he’s apparently sticking to it. And Kendra is apparently believing him, considering she just Tweeted this week that she loves Baskett, she forgives Baskett and that critics should not f-ck with her concept of love .

D.L. Hughley SLAMS Caitlyn Jenner: What Did He Say?

We've found another celebrity who doesn't think Caitlyn Jenner should have received an ESPY Award . Stopped on the street by TMZ cameras late last week, D.L. Hughley made his opinion on the transgender star very clear. Referencing the tennis legend after whom Jenner's ESPY was named, the comedian said: “[Arthur Ashe] fought AIDS with dignity and honor and Caitlyn Jenner put on a dress. I don't think it's the same thing. “I don't think that would have been my choice but I'm not on the ESPYS. I think Arthur Ashe and Caitlyn Jenner have little in common.” Would Hughley at least conceded that Caitlyn is beautiful? “In a Miss Doubtfire kind of way. Stop it. Stop it,” he said. As we look to add this quote to the dumb things people have said about Caitlyn Jenner , Hughley concluded: “This week we had the media telling us that Caitlyn Jenner was beautiful and that Serena Williams looked like a man. That was a little weird to me. The man looks like a woman and the woman looks like a man? That's ridiculous. “I think Serena is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen on a tennis court and Bruce Jenner looks like every P.E. teacher I've ever had.” After giving this interview, Hughley posted side-by-side photos of Jenner and Mrs. Doubtfire on his Twitter account and wrote: “Somebody tell me I'm wrong. #TeamDL.”

Bill Cosby Admits to Paying Women to Keep Sex a Secret, Jokes About Abuse Allegations in Newly Released Deposition

Last week, the Associated Press published excerpts from a 2005 civil case in which Bill Cosby admitted to drugging women with the intent to rape them. For many Cosby fans, the revelation came as an utter shock, and at least two celebrity supporters distanced themselves from the comedy legend in the days that followed. Singer Jill Scott apologized for defending Cosby on Twitter. The View host Whoopi Goldberg – a longtime friend and defender of Cosby – admitted that he’s ” probably guilty .” Now, new excerpts from the 2005 deposition that have been obtained by the New York Times show a sick side of Cosby that’s sure to make his few remaining supporters question their faith in the once-beloved comic. In sworn testimony, Cosby admitted to having several extramarital affairs and paying his partners to keep the sex a secret. Asked about situations in which he allegedly engaged women sexually without receiving their verbal consent, Cosby explained that he is a “pretty decent reader of people and their emotions in these romantic sexual things” and has a talent for picking up on “non-verbal cues.” At one point, Dolores Troiani – an attorney for the plaintiff in the case – complained about Cosby’s jocular attitude and stated that she believed the TV icon was “making light of a very serious matter.” Cosby sarcastically replied, “That may very well be.” When contacted by the Times, Cosby’s publicist said the comedian has no comment regarding these latest revelations.

Izabella St. James: Holly Madison Pathetic, Weird and Bitter Over Degrading Sex Acts

Former Playboy model Izabella St. James is weighing in on Holly Madison and why she is opening up about being Hugh Hefner’s girlfriend now. St. James’ abridged theory: Holly’s a pathetic, creepy, weirdo liar who’s just bitter because she was the one who had to please Hefner sexually. Yup, this is gonna be good … According to Kendra Wilkinson, Holly is out for revenge because she was cut out of Hef’s will. But Izabella thinks it goes even deeper than that. Sort of literally in some cases, if you follow. About Holly, whose book Down the Rabbit Hole makes some startling allegations about Hefner and Playboy , Izabella says her motive is clear: “She is selling the book by making outrageous claims, doing tell-all interviews where she says he degraded her and calls it the house of horrors.” “If it was the house of horrors,” Izabella adds , then Madison, rather than Hefner’s victim, “was the most willing and happy participant of it all.” Izabella believes Holly’s crazy claims stem from bitterness over being ostracized from the “core” Bunny group, referring them to the “cool kids.” After Madison was shunned as Hef’s “favorite” girl, St. James says, she became so desperate that she began emulating everything Hugh did. And doing anything he wanted to do. To her. According to Izabella, 39, Hef just wasn’t that into Holly, 35, even though Madison did everything to get him back into her any way she could. Holly was allegedly an active participant in orgies ending wth Hef “finishing off himself,” as well as the only willing participant in more sex acts. Back door and more, intrusive sex toys, you name it – Holly was willing to do whatever it took to please her man, and she’s bitter as a result. Izabella says, “She had to take one for the team, and she always did, and we have seen her do some extremely humiliating things sexually.” “I think part of her bitterness and humiliation and vengefulness comes from that. It was very belittling and she was the only one who did that.” Even the other bunnies were appalled, she says: “I think everyone looked down on it and looked down on her for having to be in that position.” Ironically, Izabella St. James is sort of doing the exact thing that she accuses Madison of when she sells her out to the media in this fashion. St. James’ comments are eye-opening, for sure, but could she be just a tiny bit bitter and desperate herself that she wasn’t Hef’s #1 girlfriend? Maybe not, in retrospect, given the sex with Hugh Hefner … but with all the mind games going on behind closed doors, you do have to wonder.

Pretty Little Liars Season 6 Episode 6 Recap: Is Charles Alive?!

Wait … is Charles DiLaurentis not dead after all? The Pretty Little Liars grappled with that chilling question and a lot more on Season 6 Episode 6. Watch Pretty Little Liars Season 6 Episode 6 Online Entitled “No Stone Unturned,” Pretty Little Liars Season 6 Episode 6 really drove home the perils of the girls assuming everyone is A. Especially when, you know, they’re NEVER CORRECT. That thought would be far too logical for the Liars, of course, and would lead to much less drama instead of what we witnessed Tuesday. Chiefly, grand theft auto and breaking and entering.  You’ll have to watch Pretty Little Liars online to fully appreciate the methods (or lack thereof) to their madness. The girls have gone out of control! So has Lesli Stone been removed as a suspect? All we know is that if she were A, she didn’t go to great lengths to hide all the alleged evidence in her car. Also, A being caught on camera? It’s all because A wanted to be seen there. Duh. Fortunately, Mona was able to explain this to Spencer, Aria, and Hanna, setting them straight and pointing out other things they didn’t think of. Such as? Perhaps most notably, that Charles could never be a viable organ donor, as they were led to believe … so he is still in play right now. The Liars do have lives, of course, so you can’t totally fault them for missing clues and generally being manipulated and confused very easily. Still, you have to wonder about some moments. When Nicole, a Habitat for Humanity friend of Emily’s, asked her to come to Thailand in two weeks, Emily asked right away if Sara could come. Then Sara got attacked by Lesli’s car, and had an excuse for every reason she couldn’t go on the trip … and kissed Emily. It was a lot to handle. All the while, Lesli ended up being guilty of nothing – other than having a screw loose, perhaps, and Charles’ games took an unexpected toll. Alison’s father looks like the real target, following an ominous birthday card signaling the probably not dead DiLaurentis is coming for his big day. The episode ended with Mr. DiLaurentis digging up his son’s grave, just to check. Somehow we think we know what he’s going to find, or not find.

Whoopi Goldberg on Bill Cosby: He’s PROBABLY Guilty!

Last week, the world learned that Bill Cosby had admitted to drugging women with the intent to rape them while testifying in a 2005 civil case. In the wake of that bombshell revelation, several Cosby defenders admitted that they were wrong to assume that the comic had been falsely accused.  Singer Jill Scott apologized for defending Cosby . Dozens of former fans took to social media to declare that they now believe Cosby is indeed guilty of the many heinous crimes of which he's been accused. But through it all, at least one celebrity stood firmly in Cosby's corner. The View host  Whoopi Goldberg defended Cosby as recently as last Tuesday, when she offered her impassioned (and somewhat misguided) take on the manner in which Cosby has been treated by the media. This week, Goldberg sat down with ABC legal analyst Dan Abrams and acknowledged that an ever-growing mountain of evidence indicates that Cosby most likely has a long and ugly history of predatory behavior. “I got to say all of the information that's out there king of points to guilt,” Goldberg said at one point. Check out the clip above to watch Whoopi finally come around.

Kylie Jenner Feuds with Amandla Steinberg Over Cornrows

Kylie Jenner may be fully dressed (for once!) in a new Instagram photo. But the 17-year old has still managed to stir up controversy with it. Jenner took to her social media site on Saturday morning, snapped a selfie at a photo shoot and wrote as a caption “I woke up like disss.” The problem with the photo, according to at least one celebrity? Kylie is rocking cornrows in it. Wrote Hunger Games actress Amandla Steinberg in response to Kylie’s look: “@novemberskyys when u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter.” Kylie’s sister, Kendall Jenner , came under fire in April of 2014 when Marie Claire also dressed the young star in cornrows and described the look as “epic” and “bold,” as if Kendall and that magazine had just invented it.  Marie Claire went on to apologize for the incident. “@amandlastenberg Mad if I don’t, Mad if I do…. Go hang w Jaden or something,” Kylie shot back in response this weekend. Stenberg, of course, took Jenner’s longtime friends and once rumored boy friend, Jaden Smith, to the prom back in May. So there may have been some tension between these two long before Kylie did up her hair in the unique style depicted above. Stenberg, meanwhile, has been critical of other celebrities in a similar regard as she is here. Earlier this year, the young actress took Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry to task for stealing black culture. View Slideshow: Kylie Jenner Instagram Photos: A Racy Rundown

Miss USA 2015: And the Winner Is…

For a couple hours on Sunday night, the Miss USA Pageant was about a handful of beautiful women. And not Donald Trump . The annual ceremony received endless attention in the lead-up to the event, of course, because NBC and Univision both yanked coverage due to Trump’s comments about Mexicans . Multiple hosts, judges and musical acts also pulled out due to Trump being a pompous bigot. But the show did go on in Baton Rouge, with a winner crowned after an evening full of swimsuits, ball gowns and profound answers to dumb questions. And congratulations are in order for Olivia Jordan! The 26-year old Oklahoma native overcame 50 competitors to claim the crown, impressing folks with her views on race relations; on the need for improved dynamics; and her option that Oprah or Harriet Tubman ought to be on the $10 bill . The model and 2013 winner of Miss World America inherits the title from 2014 Miss USA winner Nia Sanchez . Despite the controversy surrounding Miss USA, Jordan was all smiles and screams upon being announced as champion. And Trump? He missed the pageant for a campaign event.
