You make me happier than I have ever known! Here’s to many many more years of the best parts of life!” Keys and Beatz wed at a private home on the Mediterranean Sea in August 2010 and welcomed son Egypt two months later.

She gave birth to a baby girl!! Congratulations!!
Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed did not receive a private plane for Christmas this year. Instead, one of Hollywood’s cutest couples were gifted with something even more special: quality time with each other. Along with Reed’s brother, the stars vacationed in Sun Valley last week, snapping a selfie on top of the mountain and gushing over one another in the process. “My brother and my love all in one day, on one mountain- I’m so overwhelmed by all of the beauty that surrounds us. HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Love…us,” Reed wrote on Instagram. Somerhalder, on break from filming The Vampire Diaries Season 6 , added: “No filter for this sunny Sun Valley day of awesomeness with my loves, the incredible @iamnikkireed and my brother @nathanaugustreed. “The Happiest of holidays to everyone, may nothing but smiles, family time and reflection come from these moments. I’m grateful for all of the love this years for me, us and ISF from everyone-may you empower all around you with the same strength and energy you have to spread positivity and compassion. “Smiles are contagious-please spread them;) I’m grateful for and l love you all…” Ian and Nikki have been dating for most of 2014, with things growing so serious that Somerhalder may have been engagement ring shopping earlier this month. We know, right? EEK!!!! 29 Incredibly Sexy Ian Somerhalder Pics 1. Ian Somerhalder in August Man Ian Somerhalder is featured here as part of a spread for August Man. That’s a magazine.
Two trends swept the nation in 2014: The Twerk. The Selfie. But while the former dance move was mostly reserved for those such as Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj, the latter has been adopted by singers and actors; reality stars and athletes; laymen and laywomen across the globe. In short, try to find a single individual out there who has not snapped at least one selfie this year and you’ll quickly understand why this self-portrait has earned its status as THG Celebrity of the Year #5 . 47 Super Celebrity Selfies 1. Ellen DeGeneres Oscar Selfie Ellen DeGeneres posts the best selfie ever. Literally the best, in terms of re-Tweets. Some use the selfie to simply remain famous (hi, Kim Kardashian !), while others use it to break the Internet (well done, Ellen DeGeneres at the Oscars!). Other celebrities pose their cute kids in front of the camera for it, while others put their private parts front and center. Regular folks, meanwhile, take advantage of the selfie when they come into contact with famous people, subtly recording proof of these quasi meetings as follows: 19 Surprising Celebrity Selfies 1. Paul McCartney and Warren Buffett Paul McCartney and Warren Buffett had dinner together in Omaha, as evidenced by this kid’s amazing selfie. They are selfies of baby bumps out there and selfies taken by fighter jet pilots (seriously!). There are makeup-free selfies, plane crash selfies and, yes, a book of selfies on the way from Kim Kardashian (as if you’re surprised). Will this trend ever come to an end? Probably not; not as long as there are phones and social media accounts available to use. But at least we can hope that people will learn to regular their pictures a bit better, as 2015 will maybe mark the year where the following types of selfies will never surface online ever again. 13 Selfies That Should Never Be Snapped Ever Again
Nick and Vanessa Lachey are celebrating the holidays in the most adorable of ways. The couple has shared its Christmas card online, giving Internet users everywhere a look at their cute son and their impending bundle of absolute joy. “Today I wanted to wish you a Happy Holiday from my family to yours, and share our 2014 Lachey family Christmas card,” Vanessa wrote on her website. “This photo was taken on Camden’s birthday and it’s my favorite picture of all four of us…at least, so far!” Little Camden is two years old and is cupping his mom’s face in his hands while planting a kiss on her lips in the image. Nick Lachey, meanwhile, is giving his wife’s pregnant belly a smooch, clearly excited to welcome a daughter into the world. A few months ago, Lachey was also excited to show off one of the most precious celebrity babies photos we’ve seen in awhile, as Camden posed in some serious babiators . “You can expect lots of fun stuff to come in the New Year right here on my site,” Vanessa also wrote on her website. “Let’s just say it’s one of my biggest resolutions for 2015!”? Nick and Vanessa are just two well-known celebrities expecting a blessing in the new years. Others include the following: Celebrities Who Are Expecting a Baby in 2015 1. Kate Middleton Another royal baby is on the way! Kate Middleton and Prince William will welcome it into the world in April 2015.
Leah Messer is in a mess of trouble. Yesterday, reports surfaced claiming that Messer had stolen $50,000 from her daughter Ali. If you watch Teen Mom online , then you already know that Ali suffers from muscular dystrophy, which has resulted in a wide variety of challenges and complications. The 50 grand was held in a trust fund that was set up to help cover the cost of Ali’s medical expenses. A source tells In Touch magazine that the account has been “totally drained,” and that Leah was the only one who had access to it. The troubled mother of three took to Twitter yesterday to attempt to clear her name. “My girls still have they’re [sic] money,” Leah tweeted. “It’s just not at the bank your [sic] looking at.” Yes, Leah is claiming that she simply transferred the funds to a different bank without telling anyone. That’s an entirely plausible explanation, but she has yet to furnish any evidence. Meanwhile, she also hinted that the rumors that she’ll soon be divorced from Jeremy Calvert are bogus. “Jerm and I want to go to Gatlinsburg, TN and get a cabin,” Leah wrote yesterday. “Does anyone have any cabins in mind?” So Leah says she hasn’t plundered her daughter’s trust fund, and everything is a-okay between her and Calvert. We can’t decide which story is harder to believe. Leah Messer Photos: Through the Years 1. Leah Messer and Daughter Leah Messer and one of her three daughters share a tender moment.
On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6, Lisa Rinna and family went home to Oregon, while Eileen and Yolanda bonded in the 90210. Brandi Glanville? She probably doesn’t remember where she was, she was so hammered, while former hot mess Kim Richards is keeping it real these days. Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6 Online Lisa Rinna kicks things off on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 6 , explaining that her beloved childhood home is being sold. Such an emotional “origins” story line feels a bit too early for a new cast member such as herself, but we’ll go with it. Lisa R. is nothing if not entertaining. Her namesake Lisa Vanderpump is back from Palm Springs and kills time filming with her swans and Ken, neither of whom seem particularly interested. At lunch, Lisa Rinna, Yolanda Foster and Eileen Davidson bond over kids. Turns out Yolanda and Eileen’s children went to school together. Small world! Eileen drops another hint that she’s having financial problems, or at least concerns, by complaining about how big her house is and wanting to downsize. Kylie Richards is not having financial problems. She plans a BBQ with her assistant, who is dubbed “Ladysitter,” which is maybe the dumbest thing ever. On the road with Lisa Rinna, we see her with her parents in an assisted living residence and while they seem very sweet, this feels extremely awkward. Maybe it’s just us? We’re not sure. But you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online to see Brandi get tanked, not Lisa’s parents be manipulated. Speaking of which, we’re getting to that good part. Just not before Kyle complains about how busy she is and needs to hire help. Humble Brag Hall of Fame. Eileen, Yolanda, Lisa Vanderpump, Ken, Brandi and Kim are at the BBQ, and it doesn’t take long for the innuendos, heated questions and claws to come out. Case in point: Yolanda asks Lisa why she didn’t invite her to Palm Springs, Lisa says she didn’t invite anyone, and Yolanda knows she invited Lisa Rinna. Classic. Almost as much so as Brandi Glanville sharing the details of her vagina rejuvenation with Eileen. And as usual, Lisa V. is not nice to Brandi. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Cast Photos 1. Brandi Glanville Brandi’s back, and boozy as ever. Spoiler alert: At some point this season, she smacks Lisa Vanderpump. You’d HAVE to be drunk to assault such a classy lady! These two could both use a time out, or a good spanking, or something, because they either just need to let it go and make up or just not talk period. In this case, however, Lisa does not need to be such a … you know. Brandi’s not innocent and we can’t believe this is all over Scheana Marie . But still. Brandi is at least trying, though, yet Lisa and Ken are horrible to her. At some point you’d think they would show a little … we don’t even know at this point. Ironically, the oft-troubled Kim Richards is the only one who seems like she really has it together. Kyle Richards can s–k it , as Brandi says, but Kim? She really seems like she’s turned things around, and is authentically genuine to boot. On an episode like this one, she shines even brighter than usual.
Los Angeles police are investigating this video of a song poking fun at the killing of black teenager Michael Brown by a white policeman, reports indicate. The racist parody of “Bad, Bad Leroy Brown,” performed at a retired officer’s party at the Glendale, Calif., Elks Lodge, went viral earlier this week … Michael Brown Racist Song Parody The song, captured on video and posted on celebrity gossip and news site TMZ, is pretty stunning considering the fallout from Brown’s death this year. Anger over police killings of black men has intensified following the cases of Brown and Eric Garner . No charges were filed against police in either case. In an apparent revenge attack Saturdya, Ismaaiyl Brinsley murdered two officers in Brooklyn. With tragedies and tension at all time highs, this video? It’s certainly not going to help. LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said: “Like many of you, I find it offensive & absurd. It does not reflect the values of the #LAPD.” “I have directed our Professional Standards Bureau to look into this,” he added, to help “determine if any active department employees were involved.” The lyrics, heard plain as day, are as follows: Michael Brown learned a lesson about a messin’ With a badass policeman And he’s bad, bad Michael Brown Baddest thug in the whole damn town Badder than old King Kong Meaner than a junkyard dog Two men took to fightin’ And Michael punched in through the door And Michael looked like some old Swiss cheese His brain was splattered on the floor And he’s dead, dead Michael Brown Deadest man in the whole damn town His whole life’s long gone Deader than a roadkill dog The song was performed by Gary Fishell, an Elks member, at a party organized by a retired LAPD officer there on December 15, local media reported. A trustee for the lodge, in a statement to LA Weekly, apologized for the song, which he called inappropriate and said does not reflect the group’s values. A lawyer for Fishell, a former private investigator, said, “He’s a goofball who writes funny songs,” adding that he now realizes it was “off color and in poor taste.” Retired officer Joe Myers, who hosted the dinner after a charity golf tournament, spoke to TMZ about the song , saying, “How can I dictate what he [Fishell sings]?” “This is America. We can say what we want. This is a free America.” A trustee for the Lodge says Myers’ dinner was not an official Elks Club event, but since he is a member he had a right to hold a dinner there for his charity. The trustee says many people were upset, though (including one person who was so upset that no one objected that they filmed and leaked the clip): “It’s deplorable and inappropriate and the Lodge will be taking disciplinary action against [Fishell] and possibly the people who organized this event.” We imagine this isn’t the last we’ll hear of this story, as Brown’s shooting in Ferguson, Mo., this summer continues to resonate throughout the nation … Celebrities React to Events in Ferguson, Missouri 1.

Patrick Schwarzenegger is pretty freaking thrilled with his life these days. With his crazy uninhibited girlfriend in Miley Cyrus, and the added turn-on of his mother Maria Shriver disapproving of said girlfriend, he’s living the dream. Sources say disobeying poor mom just makes Miles even hotter to him. A big reason Patrick Schwarzenegger and Miley Cyrus got together is their mutual love of crazy antics, but the fact that Maria is not a fan really tuns him on. “Patrick is intrigued with Miley and her ‘don’t give a f–k attitude’, he’s in awe of her and everything about her turns him on,” says a source close to him. “The fact that his mom doesn’t approve also makes Miley more appealing and more seductive. He loves that Miley is always pushing the envelope.” Maria reportedly even tried to break the two lovebirds up, but her plan looks to have backfired, as he’s more into Miley and their life together than ever. Shriver’s ” massive disapproval about their relationship ” has led to tension between them, with some believing he goes out of his way to flaunt and taunt. What is this, high school? Actually, it’s not far off. Miley Cyrus 2013 VMA Performance: Photos and GIFs! 1. Attack of the Foam Finger! Our lives were never the same after seeing Miley Cyrus do this at the 2013 Video Music Awards. One has to wonder if that rumor about the couple getting married already was directly aimed at Maria to make her flip her s–t, which she surely did. Parental issues aside, there’s the girl on girl action Miley lets him watch, as she will randomly make out with hot girls in front of Patrick to tantalize him. And really, what guy out there doesn’t dream of watching their girlfriend suck face with other babes? Says the source of the hot and heavy twosome: “Miley loves turning Patrick on. And one way she does this is by flirting and making out with random hot girls and posting sexy pics on social media.” Sounds hot. But how long will it last? At some point, he may be grossed out by her filthy habits and move on with someone a little more … conventional. For now, though? Living the exhibitionist dream. 19 Miley Cyrus Topless Pics That We Can Never Unsee 1. Miley Cyrus “Adore You” Cover Yup, Miley Cyrus is topless again. This time, it’s for the “Adore You” remix cover.
Get ready to bro down with Vince and his crew of lackeys one more time! After years of rumors, speculation, and high-profile contract squabbles, the Entourage movie is in the can, and the the first trailer is generating more excitement amongst aging frat boys than a new scent from Axe body spray: Entourage Movie Trailer The gang’s all here in a surprisingly long clip that’s been labeled a “teaser” by Warner Bros. There’s Vince, E, Turtle, Drama, Ari, and best of all, Lloooooooyd!!! Naturally, there’s no shortage of celebrity cameos including Ronda Rousey, Haley Joel Osment, Billy Bob Thornton, and presumably many more. Emily Ratajkowski is on hand, hopefully to reenact her nude scene from Gone Girl in preparation for a sequel starring Vince in Ben Affleck’s role. That’s the type of meta Hollywood satire the show was famous for, Bro Namath! We kid. As far as we can tell Vince is a director now. (Just like Adrian Grenier in real life!) Turtle has lost a ton of weight.(Just like Jerry Ferrara in real life!) And Mark Wahlberg is disappointed by his under-achieving brother. (Just like, eh…you get it.) Yes, clearly this movie has drawn a lot of inspiration from – you guessed it – the early works of Shakespeare. Entourage was an easy show to poke fun at (particularly in its later seasons), but at its best it offered a dose of wildly entertaining (and often hilarious) lifestyle porn with just the right amount of Hollywood self-loathing mixed in. So prepare your crew for next summer, when the Entourage movie hits theaters on June 5, 2015 . Just don’t argue about which one of you is Vince. No one ever wins that fight. 36 Memorable Movie Posters 1. Gone Girl Poster Ben Affleck stars in Gone Girl. We can’t wait to see this movie!!!
2014 will be remembered for many reasons. It was the year when Ebola made its way to the United States; when civilians in Missouri and New York took their displeasure with the police to the street; when North Korea somehow prevented a movie from opening in the United States. And also when Kylie and Kendall Jenner fully emerged from the attention-hogging shadow of half-sister Kim Kardashian … barely wearing any clothes in the process! 49 Inappropriate Kylie and Kendall Jenner Photos 1. Kendall and Kylie Jenner Bikini Photo This is ONE RACY photo of Kendall and Kylie Jenner in bikinis on Instagram. Goodness. This is not the first year the Jenners have made a splash, but with each passing week, their fame – and notoriety – grows, and not solely on Instagram. Indeed, these teenage siblings have been public figures to some degree since they were children, due to their roles on Keeping Up with the Kardashians . But Kylie and Kendall Jenner served as far more than background fodder for their feuding parents and famous half-sisters over the past 12 months. Kylie made us feel dirty every time she stripped down on Instagram, while clearly basking in the focus on those who wondered whether she has had lip injections . Making headlines for merely stoking the rumor mill with plastic surgery talk and for posing in skimpy outfits at a young age (Kylie is just 17 years old)? Hmmm. We wonder where she learned that lesson from. 31 Wildly Inappropriate Photos of Kylie Jenner 1. Kylie Jenner Cleavage Pic Kylie Jenner squats and shows off her cleavage in this photo. NOTE: She is 16 years old. Kendall, meanwhile, has accomplished more than just mastery of her social media accounts (though she remains a master of social media in her own right). A true runway star, the 19-year old stunner has helped anchor fashion shows in Paris, Milan and New York over the past several months. She’s appeared in Vogue, more than once. She possibly hooked up with Justin Bieber . She was named the most reblogged model of 2014 . To Jenner’s credit, she has gone out of her way to disassociate herself from her famous family, trying as hard as possible to establish herself in the fashion world on her own merits. So far, so very good for her, with no end in sight. It’s been an impressive year overall for Kendall and Kylie Jenner. Expect to see them back in this list in 2015, perhaps even ranked higher than Kim. Let’s just hope it’s not because they made a sex tape. 36 Wildly Inappropriate Photos of Kendall Jenner 1. Kendall Jenner: Naked and Smoking Kendall Jenner is smoking in this picture. In more ways than one! She was 18 years old at the time it was taken.
