Kendall Jenner is very excited to be a new spokesperson for Calvin Klein. She recently showed off her underwear on Instagram to prove it. But we now know of at least one individual who isn’t as excited for Jenner’s new gig: graffiti artist KATSU. In a video we never expected to share this morning, KATSU records himself using a drone to deface a billboard of Jenner promoting Calvin Klein in downtown New York City. Seriously, you can actually watch this act of vandalism take place: Kendall Jenner: Defaced by a Drone! After pulling off the stunt, the graffiti artist told WIRED: “It’s exciting to see its first potential use as a device for vandalism.” We aren’t exactly fans of Kendall (Or Kylie Jenner … or Kris Jenner… or Kim Kardashian …), but we have to ask: it is? This is exciting? This is how you choose to spend your time, destroying someone else’s hard work? Heck, forget Kendall for a second. Workers put that billboard up. Workers will now need to go up and take it down. Talk about a random and selfish act, KATSU. Grow up, dude. View Slideshow: Kendall Jenner Magazine Covers: She’s Everywhere!
Jean Nidetch may not be a household name, but as the founder of Weight Watchers, she single-handedly revolutionized the business of helping people trim down and tone up. After five decades in the health and fitness industry, Nidetch passed away today at her home in Ft. Lauderdale. She was 91 years old. Today, the company that Nidetch founded from her kitchen in Brooklyn is a globally-recognized brand with A-list celebrity spokespersons. Stars like Jessica Simpson have slimmed down with Weight Watchers , and its products are sold in more than 30 countries. Nidetch was overweight throughout her childhood and began coming up with strategies to drop the extra pounds while in her late-30s. She was 5’7″ and weighed 214 pounds at the time and she came up with some simple guidelines (don’t skip meals, eat fish five times a week) that she found worked not only for her, but for the friends that she advised in their own efforts to “reduce.” In 1978, the Heinz corporation purchased Weight Watchers from Nidetch for $71 million. Not bad for a woman who had been living in a one-bedroom apartment just 15 years earlier. Nidetch remained a consultant to the organization up until her death.

Jill Duggar’s son Israel David Dillard, born earlier this month, is already famous on social media. And for good reason: #BabyDilly is a bona fide cutie! Despite the recent controversy over Jill holding the baby improperly , he seems to be sleeping quite well since coming into the world back on April 6. With Israel’s every moment documented, we can honestly and affectionately say the youngest Duggar family member is getting cuter by the day. The 19 Kids and Counting star shared this latest, cherubic image of her little boy snoozing via Instagram above, with the caption “#sleepingbaby.” #IndeedJill. Is there anything more peaceful on Earth than that? Is there anything happier than a baby laughing at a dandelion ? No and no. His arrival was definitely a big event – to be seen on TLC or when you watch 19 Kids and Counting online May 5 – for Israel’s parents and family. Izzy’s aunts, uncles and grandparents have been keeping themselves busy caring for him, and he’ll soon have some more cousins to play with too! With the pregnant Jessa Duggar (with her first) and pregnant Anna Duggar (with her fourth!) expecting as well, 2015 is looking like a banner Duggar year. The following year could be even bigger, since Josiah Duggar and Marjorie Jackson are courting … and Jill will likely be pregnant again by then. Just a hunch there. Because Duggars.

It’s no secret that Scott Disick likes to party, but in a recent interview with Life & Style, Disick’s close friend and former manager David Weintraub revealed that Scott’s bad habits are far more severe than the public realizes. Disick ditched rehab for the fifth time last month, and Weintraub says he now fears for the reality star’s life. “Scott is a cokehead,” Wientraub says. “He is totally at the point where he could kill himself.” In addition to the drug use, Weintraub says Disick’s infidelity is so rampant that it almost seems as though he intends to sabotage his relationship. Weintraub claims he’s seen Scott cheat on Kourtney Kardashian with “countless women” over the years, sometimes in the presence of Kylie Jenner’s boyfriend, Tyga. “In Las Vegas about a year ago, Scott and the rapper Tyga were partying at a strip club,” the manager reveals. “Scott was doing drugs and making out with the girls. Then he grabbed two strippers and went into the private room, where anything can happen.” In one of the strangest portions of the interview, Weintraub reveals that Disick claims Kourtney is okay with his philandering. “Scott says they have an arrangement, kind of an open marriage,” Weintraub says. “When he’s away, he can live the way he wants to live.” As for the frequent rumors of Kourtney dumping Scott , Weintraub says they’re often true: “They’ve broken up at least 20 times in the years they’ve been together,” he says. Weintraub says Scott’s chronic misbehavior is the main reason that he and Kourtney have yet to make it official: “Why does she need to marry him? She knows she can’t really trust him. She got her kids and she’s worth five times what he is.” And with that, Kourtney might have cemented her place as the smartest Kardashian. View Slideshow: 11 Times Scott Disick Was a Douche
We’ve heard all the rumors, watched the promos and yes, even glanced at the Bruce Jenner dress photo that scandalously hit the Internet this week. For months, it’s been all but accepted as fact that Bruce Jenner, Olympic decathlete and reality TV patriarch, is in the process of becoming a woman. No one had heard him personally address this, however. Until tonight. Bruce finally broke his silence about his transition this evening on 20/20, reintroducing himself as a woman via a lengthy sit-down with Diane Sawyer. So what did we learn from the much-anticipated, long-form interview? For one thing, we learned that Bruce began to feel that his physical gender was out of alignment with his “mostly feminine” spirit in early childhood. Jenner tearfully described the moment when he first tried on a dress at the age of eight and felt that he’d discovered the sort of freedom and comfort that would elude him for the next several decades. He amazingly revealed that he was burdened by his uncertainty about his sexual identity even in the midst of his Olympic gold medal triumphs. “That is her,” Bruce says when shown a photo of himself competing in the decathlon. View Slideshow: 17 Bruce Jenner Pics: Through the Years Surprisingly, Jenner says he was somewhat open about his issues with his first wife, though he confesses that he never revealed to her that he felt like he “might not make it in this male gender.” His first wife, Chrystie Crownover, was loving and supportive. His second marriage, he reveals, began to unravel soon after he confessed his gender-based confusion to then-wife Linda Thompson. Bruce began transitioning shortly thereafter – more than 30 years ago – but abandoned the process after five years. He said he was frightened by the possibility of hurting his children and defying the religious teachings he held dear. It was during this time, when Bruce was weaning off of his hormones and unhappily suppressing his deepest desires, that he began his relationship with Kris Jenner. That marriage lasted more than 20 years before coming to an end in 2013, but Bruce says Kris knew about his gender identity from the start. Even so, he says his transition was “not what she expected.” He also acknowledges that her inability to cope with his desire for reassignment was a factor in their decision to divorce after two decades of marriage. View Slideshow: Kris Jenner and Bruce Jenner: Through the Years… As difficult as it was to bare his soul to his wives, however, Bruce says the most difficult challenge of his life was telling his kids about his lifelong struggle. With six biological children and four stepchildren, he had a lot on his plate in that regard. All of them have been nothing but supportive, he says. Surprisingly, the first member of the Kardashian-Jenner brood that he told was the most famous of stepdaughters, Kim Kardashian . Kendall and Kylie Jenner found out shortly thereafter when they spotted their father wearing a dress via their in-home security camera. Jenner adds that despite feeling like a woman his whole life, he’s 100 percent heterosexual and has never experienced any desire to be with a man. As for why he chose to transition so late in life, Bruce says he couldn’t bear the thought that he might one day die “having only lived in someone else’s body.” Bruce beamed with pride when he discussed a future in which, “I can emerge as myself. How simple is that.” We look forward to seeing the day. View Slideshow: Celebrities Show Support for Bruce Jenner
Of all the revelations on tonight’s long-awaited Bruce Jenner-Diane Sawyer interview , one of the most surprising may have come when Jenner revealed that the first of his many kids and step-kids to learn about his gender identity was none other than Kim Kardashian. Bruce stated that Kim saw him wearing a dress several years before he shared his secret with his other kids. Kim apparently had no visible reaction to the sight of her stepfather dressed as a woman. As Bruce tells it, she simply “got in her car and went for a drive.” When his youngest daughters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, spotted him wearing a dress on their in-home security camera shortly thereafter, they were similarly drumbstruck, believing, Bruce says, “that it was not something they could discuss.” Kim initially struggled with Bruce’s hidden identity, but during a recent hear-to-heart with Jenner, she revealed that a surprising source of compassion helped her come around. Bruce says Kim said to him, “You know what turned me around? Kanye.” “I can be married to the most beautiful woman in the world,” Kanye reportedly said to Kim. “I can have the most beautiful daughter in the world. I have that. But I’m nothing if I can’t be myself.” So it looks like the reports of Kim fully supporting Bruce on his journey were entirely true, and the rumors of her being embarrassed by her beloved stepdad were simply the most vicious kind of tabloid rumor. As for the many, many reports of Kanye being a narcissistic jerk? Well, maybe we’ll have to re-think those. Maybe. View Slideshow: 17 Bruce Jenner Pics: Through the Years
Think Jared Leto gave us our first photo at his version of The Joker on Snapchat last week? Think again. David Ayer, director of the upcoming Suicide Squad movie, has truly teased what the Oscar winning-actor will look like as the iconic DC villain via a brand new Twitter photo. And it’s all kinds of crazy awesome. The image of Leto (which Ayer unveiled late Friday evening to celebrate the Joker’s 75th anniversary) depicts a very different baddie from the one portrayed in Batman stories of the past. Gone is the suit-clad Jack Nicholson version. Gone is the shaggy, disheveled appearance of Heath Ledger’s take. In their place, this Joker comes across as especially maniacal, rocking some major tattoos, chrome teeth and a slicked back, bright green tuft of hair. He’s also wearing a purple glove. “The Suicide Squad wishes you a Happy Anniversary Mr. J! #Joker75 #SuicideSquad @WarnerBrosEnt @DCComics,” Ayer wrote as a caption. So… what do you think? Are you excited to see the large-penised Leto in this beloved role? View Slideshow: Jared Leto Hugging Memes!
Pretty much all of Hollywood and America are praising last night’s Bruce Jenner interview , hailing the Olympic great and reality TV patriarch for his bravery. Kris Humphries … is one of the outliers. While Bruce was opening up to Diane Sawyer about his lifelong gender identity struggle, and numerous never-before-revealed details, Kris was snarking on Twitter. “Man, I’m glad I got out when I did,” Humphries, who was married to Kim Kardashian for a whole 72 days in 2011, idiotically posted to his Twitter. #Gottadoyou.” Given its timing, that comment from the Washington Wizards forward can only be a cheap shot at Bruce Jenner and the family he briefly married into. Pretty amazing, that as Bruce was baring his soul on ABC News about how Kim Kardashian was the first to know about his transition, Kris Tweeted that. For all the bad press Kanye West gets, Kim definitely traded up in the husband department, as she credits ‘Ye with helping her accept and understand Bruce. She’s not perfect, but her instincts paid off here. On a side note, it’s well documented that Kim blindsided Kris, so him “getting out” was not of his own volition. Haters. View Slideshow: 17 Bruce Jenner Pics: Through the Years Idiots aside, the 65-year-old Bruce is being widely celebrated for going public with his journey, telling Sawyer he has always been “mostly feminine” in spirit. “That is her,” Bruce says when shown a photo of himself competing in the Olympic decathlon, the moment that defined him long before the Kardashians. Pretty powerful stuff, no doubt about it. Last night, Jenner tearfully described the moment when he first tried on a dress at age eight and felt a freedom and comfort that would long elude him. He amazingly revealed that he was burdened by his uncertainty about his sexual identity through his athletic triumphs and all three of his marriages. He began the process of transitioning between his second marriage to Linda Thompson and his third marriage to Kris Jenner, but tabled it for 25 years. After they split, he started up again. Kendall and Kylie Jenner found out when they spotted their dad wearing a dress, but like the rest of his family, they are 110 percent on Team Bruce.

The much-hyped Bruce Jenner interview with Diane Sawyer has come and gone. But its impact is likely to be felt for years, if not generations, to come. The reality star and former Olympic Gold Medalist sat in front of millions of viewers on Friday night and shed some important light on living life as a transgender individual, saying in no uncertain terms: “For all intents and purposes, I am a woman.” View Slideshow: Celebrities Show Support for Bruce Jenner With those words, the Bruce Jenner sex change went from being a punchline to a source of inspiration. Jenner also opened up about him Kim Kardashian was the first family member to know of his female soul, going on to say the following: He’s not gay. He’s never slept with a man. He “downplayed” his cross-dressing while married to Kris Jenner, but she knew about it and mostly ignored it. He’s a “conservative” Republican. He wants to be a transgender role model: “I had this feeling, kind of a revelation, that maybe this is my cause in life. This is why God put me on this earth … to deal with this issue.’ After being caught last year getting a tracheal shave , he contemplated suicide. Fortunately, he later thought: I can’t do something like that. I want to know how this story ends . He’s taking hormones and he plans on undergoing some other physical changes: “Those are all things that are out there in the future for me to explore. I would do it so quietly, no one in the world would ever know.” In response to these revelations, Twitter blew up last night, mostly with heaps of praise from celebrities who admire Jenner’s courage to talk about this important cause.
