Janice Dickinson Accuses Bill Cosby of Sexual Assault

Retired supermodel and former America’s Next Top Model judge has become the latest woman to accuse Bill Cosby of sexual assault. In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Dickinson claims that Cosby drugged and raped her in Lake Tahoe following a business meeting in 1982. Dickinson is the 15th woman to come forward with allegations against Cosby. Earlier this week, a woman named Joan Tarshis accused Cosby of rape and provided shocking details of the comedian’s abuse in an interview with Inside Edition. Dickinson claims Cosby asked her to travel to Tahoe and have dinner with him, so that they could discuss the possibility of her appearing on The Cosby Show. According to Dickinson, Cosby offered her a glass of red wine and a pill, which he said was a painkiller that would help with her menstrual cramps. Dickinson now believes the pill was a powerful sedative: “The next morning I woke up, and I wasn’t wearing my pajamas,” Dickinson told ET. “And I remember before I passed out that I had been assaulted by this man.” “I’m doing this because it’s the right thing to do,” Dickinson says about coming forward. “I believe all of the other women.” Cosby has yet to respond publicly to the allegations. When asked about the charges during a recent NPR interview, Cosby simply went silent. Bill Cosby Memes Gone Horribly Awry 1. Stare at the Sweater Thanks a lot, Internet users. Now we’ll never be able to watch The Cosby Show the same way ever again!

Sara Sampaio, Victoria’s Secret Model, Slams Skinny-Shaming Haters

A few weeks after Victoria’s Secret got into hot water for its Perfect Body campaign , one of that brand’s models have fired back at critics who argue she has anything but the perfect body. Sara Sampaio – who is expected to walk the catwalk at the upcoming Victoria’s Secret Fashion show – recently posted a picture of herself in a bikini to Instagram. And it was met with excessive insults from social media users who harassed Sampaio for being all skin and bones. In response, Sampaio posted a defense of her figure, coming down hard on folks for trying to make a woman feel badly about her body. “I’m proud of my body and I’m not gonna let any of you bully me just because I’m skinny!” the brunette wrote. “Every body is different, and every metabolism is different! “I eat a lot, so next time u decide to tell me to eat a burger remember I probably eat more burgers than you, I’ve always been skinnier, and probably will always be, I workout, I’m healthy and I’m happy!” Sampaio noted that she never criticizes anyone who is overweight and said there’s a double standard at work here: It’s not okay to diss a fat woman, but it’s apparently acceptable to critique a skinny woman. “The amount of hate I see thrown at me and to other model friends that I know are naturally skinny it’s ridiculous!” she wrote. “U don’t see us shaming other types of bodies so please don’t come and shame ours! “Be happy with ur body and stop shaming others! Whether they are skinny, fat, fit, with big boobs, small boobs etc! Don’t share hate! Be happy.” 14 Celebrities Who Need to Eat Some Pie 1. Lindsay Lohan Lindsay Lohan looks healthier these days than she used to at the height of her … whatever that phase was. Some followers have taken Sampaio to task for being a hypocrite because she said in a recent online video that she envies the body of model  Candice Swanepoel . But Sampaio writes that she loves herself just as she is. However… “I can also look at another woman and admire her beauty. In fact, I admire the beauty of many women from all areas of life, not only Candice’s…As women we need to stand together. We are [judged] and objectified often enough by men. Here is to your feminism.”

In the course of one message, this guy came across like a social media stalker… a crazy cat owner… and a stuck-up prude. Don’t cry yourself to sleep over this one, Bobo. We think you’re gonna come out on top in the end. Plus, consider all the other ways in which you could have been dissed, dismissed and dumped via text message: 12 Heartbreakingly Hilarious Breakup Texts 1. #TransformationTuesday Breakup Ouch.

Certainly not what I normally manage to attract, so I thought I was onto something. He was a bit of a nerd, perhaps a bit quiet, but a genuinely nice guy all the same.” She also said she’ll never again date a man with a cat.

June Shannon: 7 Most Shocking Moments From Her Latest interviews

As part of a last-ditch effort to try and save her battered reputation, June Shannon participated in a pair of disastrous interviews over the past week. Fans who expected apologetic candor from Shannon were disappointed to see the embattled former reality star evade questions and pass blame when asked about the Mark McDaniel sex abuse scandal . Of course, what may have been worse than Shannon’s lies was her complete lack of remorse or accountability. 7 June Shannon Interview Bombshells 1. June Claims Photo of Her and Mark McDaniel is Fake June claimed the photo of her lying in bed with Mark McDaniel was Photoshopped by TMZ. She was unable to produce the original image that TMZ had allegedly edited. This is a woman who’s been publicly accused of exposing her children to a convicted sex offender , and welcoming the man who molested her daughter back into her life. Yet given the opportunity to beg forgiveness, “Mama June” offered nothing but lies and nonsensical excuses.  Thankfully, both Dr. Phil and Entertainment Tonight’s Brooke Anderson showed little tolerance for Shannon’s BS, and persisted in asking tough questions – even when Shannon offered little in the way of satisfactory responses. But while she did her best to avoid further incriminating herself, and had clearly been coached with some of her responses, Shannon still made herself appear guiltier than ever. When asked about allegations that she’d stolen from Anna Shannon’s trust fund , June shockingly accused her daughter (who was the victim of McDaniel’s abuse) of lying to make her look bad.  When confronted about the photo of her lying in bed with McDaniel , Shannon claimed the image was a fake that had been Photoshopped by and TMZ, yet she offered nothing in the way of evidence. Check out the gallery above for a full list of the most jaw-dropping bombshells from the interviews in which Shannon dug herself a deeper hole while attempting to clear her name.

Dancing With the Stars Season 19 Episode 12 Results: Whose Hopes Went Up In Smoke?

There was a great deal at stake on Dancing With the Stars Season 19 Episode 12, as the remaining celebs vied to move on in their quest for the Mirror Ball title. Among the major questions heading into this week was whether the beloved, talented Alfonso Ribeiro would have to bow out due to ongoing injury problems. In a cruel twist of fate, Alfonso was hurt during the Carlton Dance last month. With just five contestants left, this uncertainty was obviously impactful. Meanwhile, youngsters Sadie Robertson, Bethany Mota and Janel Parrish looked to make their move toward the finals, while Tommy Chong … was Tommy Chong. Read on to find out the latest Dancing With the Stars results below … At the tail end of Dancing With the Stars Season 19 Episode 12 … Tommy Chong and Peta Murgatroyd took their final bows. “I’ve just showed that old stoners can perform when they need to!” Chong joked during his long-awaited send-off, clearly not feeling too bitter about it. Monday night’s DWTS scores and summaries – two dances to different types of music, one plugged and the other unplugged – for this week’s theme: Janel Parrish and Val Chmerkovskiy : The couple’s dramatic paso doble earned them the first perfect score of the night, and she wasn’t done there. The Pretty Little Liars star brought her A-game to the Argentine tango, as well, earning another 38 points and outright first place heading into the final four. Scores: 40 + 38 = 78! Dancing With the Stars Season 19: Semifinal Performances 1. Janel Parrish & Val Chmerkovskiy – Argentine Tango (Dancing with the Stars) Janel Parrish and Valentin Chmerkovskiy dance the Argentine Tango to “Blame” by Time For Three on Dancing with the Stars. Alfonso Ribeiro and Witney Carson : Despite his back injury last week, Ribeiro made it through his Argentine tango despite fighting through obvious pain. Ribeiro then showed little sign of his injury while performing a powerful contemporary dance to an unplugged version of OneRepublic’s “Love Runs Out.” Scores: 38 + 39 = 77! Bethany Mota and Derek Hough : The YouTube star’s playful samba received mixed reviews from the judges, but she made up for that in round two. The duo earned the night’s second perfect score for a beautiful stripped-down contemporary number that took the panel’s, and America’s, breath away. Scores: 34 + 40 = 74! Sadie Robertson and Mark Ballas : The Duck Dynasty cutie seemed to get her groove back while performing a quickstep to Ariana Grande’s “Problem.” The couple showcased a strong second dance, an innovative Argentine tango with choreography from Ballas that showed off his tremendous talents. Scores: 37 + 37 = 74! Tommy Chong and Peta Murgatroyd : The duo’s sexy jazz dance to “Tainted Love” received positive feedback, but mediocre scores, from the judges. “America’s favorite” dancer then closed out his run with a heartfelt and sweet rumba that served as a swan song and certainly sent him off on a high note. Pun not even intended. Scores: 28 + 34 = 62! Dancing With the Stars Season 19 Cast Photos 1. Dancing With the Stars Season 19: Meet the Cast The cast of Dancing With the Stars Season 19 has been revealed. Check out the stars who will be lacing up their shoes!

Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 3 Recap: Will Kristen Doute Get Closure at Last?!

Monday on Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 3, we saw Lisa and her cast of characters preparing for the grand opening of her bar venture. Who’s PUMPed up for that?! (See what we did there?!) Naturally, this meant lots of budget and schedule analysis on Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 3 , and also plenty of work to be done for all involved. So who got closure? And who got kicked to the curb? Watch Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 3 Online After getting fired by Lisa Vanderpump last week, someone either doesn’t know what “fired” means, or he was too busy taking Beamer selfies that he forgot. James Kennedy , everyone. What a douche. The British thorn in Tom Sandoval’s side actually showed up ready for work SUR, where Lisa had just terminated him after his epic fight with Tom. Peter did the honors a second time here. However, will the third time be the charm? After penning a heartfelt letter to Lisa, James Kennedy was REINSTATED as SUR’s most famous busser! How could she really fire the guy after he brings so much to the table (see what we did there?!) when you watch Vanderpump Rules online these days? Exactly. It’s just business, dahling. Meanwhile, Stassi was amped up for the opening of PUMP, and Jax was stoked to have her back on the L.A. scene. Scheana Marie , on the other hand? Far from thrilled. It wasn’t long, in fact, before Scheana confronted Stassi about her wedding, telling Stassi she acts like she’s better than everyone, and then storming off. [Slow clap] So well rehearsed and convincing, Scheana. It’s a wonder that acting career hasn’t taken off by now, although she’s doing quite well here on Bravo. Finally, we have Kristen Doute and Tom Sandoval, who broke up months ago but are clearly obsessed with each other, at least if you ask the other one. “Tom needs to get out of my life,” Kristen says at one point, in between talking about Tom, chatting up his alleged paramours and talking about Tom some more. After she texts him to plan an exchange of their stuff, she headed over to their old place – where Tom now lives with Ariana – and then became a mess. Vanderpump Rules Cast Photos 1. Stassi Schroeder Sassy Stassi is the resident wit on Vanderpump Rules. She’s basically a young Lisa V. in the making. Kristen cried, said she’s so happy, stated that they all don’t have to “like each other,” told Ariana she doesn’t hate her, then cried more and got closure. We think? At first, Tom hesitated to relinquish the cable box, but when she said this would always keep them connected, he gave it up like Scheana Marie to Eddie Cibrian. Kristen, of course, having just achieved catharsis and excited to move on, said that even when she’s married with kids, she will likely think about Tom. Oye.

Charles Manson Obtains Marriage License, Plans to Wed Afton Elaine Burton

Charles Manson, arguably the most famous mass murder currently serving time behind bars, has found a woman who wants to be his lawfully wedded wife. The serial killer, who is serving a life sentence for slaughtering Sharon Tate and six other victims, was granted a marriage license today, according to The Associated Press. The 80-year old is set to marry Afton Elaine Burton, a 26-year old who runs a Charles Manson fansite. Burton left her Midwestern home nine years ago to move to Corcoran, California, the site of the prison in which Manson is incarcerated. She has dedicated her life to proclaiming his innocence. “I love him,” Burton told The AP. “I’m with him. There’s all kinds of things.” Burton says the ceremony will take place next month behind prison walls. The can invite up to 10 free people, but are not permitted to have any conjugal visits. The marriage license does not indicate a wedding date, but says the pair has 90 days to get married or they will have to reapply. Manson became notorious in 1969 as the leader of a roving “family” of young murderers. He has been in jail for the past 45 years and is not eligible for parole until 2027. 13 Celebrities Who Can’t Stop Getting Married 1. Kate Winslet Kate Winslet has been married three times.

Tila Tequila Welcomes Baby Girl! Actually Picks a Normal Name!

Brace yourself: Tila Tequila is now someone’s mother. We’ll give you a moment to question the meaning of existence. Yes, we knew Tila was pregnant , because she’s documented pretty much every second of the last nine months.  We may have even witnessed the conception in the form of the Tila Tequila sex tape , but that doesn’t make the notion of this woman raising a child any less mind-blowing.  Fortunately, in an encouraging sign for the future, Ms. Tequila opted not to pass her boozy surname onto her daughter, and the girl will instead be known as Isabella Monroe Nguyen. (Yes, we know you’re shocked that Tila is one of those women who fancies herself some sort of Marilyn Monroe figure.) We’re not surprised that Tila chose to give her daughter her own (actual) last name, because as far as anyone can tell, she has no idea who the father is. It was initially believed to be a man named Thomas Paxton Whitaker , but after an ugly breakup, Tila now denies that he’s the father. Of course, this is the same woman who – in the recent past – has faked a suicide attempt , faked a pregnancy, and faked a miscarriage, so we think it’s safe to say her relationship with the truth is shaky at best, and there’s a good chance Whitaker is the father. Whatever the case, we hope Tila has some sort of decent support network in place, because the idea of this woman raising a kid on her own is too terrifying to contemplate.  But anyway, congrats! 27 Tawdry Tila Tequila Photos 1. Tila Tequila on Her Back Tila Tequila is ready to take it. She lies back here in a still image from her second sex tape.

Kendall Jenner: I’m NOT Dating Justin Bieber (or Anyone Else)!

Kendall Jenner has gone on record in saying she is not dating Justin Bieber, despite reports to the contrary. Nor is she dating anyone else, for that matter. Speculation has run rampant that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and model has been coupling up with the pop superstar and epic douchebag. Not the case, she says, despite the fact that the two are in fact close. “He’s a longtime friend of our family,” Kendall said of the rumors during an interview on Nightline . “Everybody loves to assume things, but no.” As for whether she’s in a romantic relationship at all these days? “I’m not … I’m truly focusing on my career. If it comes it comes.” Jenner is certainly walking the walk (the catwalk if you will) to back up that talk. The brunette beauty was recently named the new face of Estee Lauder . Not only that, she was even dubbed the “model of the moment” by Vogue , which should lessen the blow from being fired by Victoria’s Secret (supposedly). 34 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. As for rumors that she banned Kim Kardashian from her shows? “It was more of a mutual understanding,” Kendall says. “I think that if my sister was sitting front row [it would take] attention away from what I’m trying to do on my own.” “I’m not trying to use a family name or anything,” Jenner explains . “In reality I worked pretty hard for this. It wasn’t like I just got it magically and it just happened.” Those rumors about Justin Bieber were purely plucked out of thin air, conversely. There’s nothing to them, and (hopefully) there never will be, for her sake. Dude is badder than bad news, and getting worse by the day.
