There have been rumors of infidelity and talk of one really big blowup. Yet still hope apparently remains for Michael Strahan and Nicole Murphy. Nicole Murphy Speaks on Michael Strahan The morning show host and his ex-fiancee were spotted getting lunch today in Beverly Hills, as TMZ cameras snapped Strahan and Murphy grabbing a bite at South Beverly Grill. And get this: They walked out arm-in-arm! Insiders say there’s a lot of love between the two still and both sides would “like to work things out.” This comes as a big surprise because Murphy called off the couple’s engagement the same day Strahan was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, while TMZ also ran a story about her BLOWING UP at Strahan inside a hotel. There’s also been talk that Murphy cheated on Strahan with ex-NBA star Jim Jackson. But another source says folks should come down about the sighting of these exes. “It was a friendly lunch,” this individual said. “They have 7 years of history together.” Celebrity Break-Ups of 2014 1. Naya Rivera and Big Sean Naya Rivera and Big Sean called it quits while rumors that he cheated took the celebrity gossip blogosphere by storm.
Given the massive importance companies assign to marketing and branding, you’d think they would pick product names that weren’t easily ridiculed. You would be wrong. Don’t call your food something offensive at worst and subject to easy mockery at best. Simple enough task, right? These epic name fails prove otherwise. This memo doesn’t always reach the bigwigs upstairs. Yes, some of these are lost in translation (at least we hope shredded children are not actually for sale in China). Plenty of others can be chalked up to different cultures, too … but still. Between the Soup For Sluts flavor of Ramen, and the Pee Cola, we’re sufficiently creeped out. Check out those surprisingly real items and other gems in this oft-disgusting, always-hilarious gallery of the 29 awfulest, most absurd food product names ever: 29 Epic Food Product Name Fails 1. Poo! Mmm. We don’t even know what this actually is, but with a name like POO, how can you go wrong.
We know The Bachelor winner Nikki Ferrell is not a big fan of ABC franchise, but to hear her call out her fellow competitor Elise Mosca like she just did? Amazing. What did she say? Previously, we’ve seen Nikki rip Bachelor in Paradise , the spinoff in which Bachelor and Bachelorette castoffs hook up and get all dramatic in Mexico. Now she’s bashing Elise, who competed with Nikki for Juan Pablo Galavis on The Bachelor earlier this year before making an epic scene in Paradise . Not that she even needs to watch the show – Ferrell has said she’d rather “stab pencils in her eyeballs” than do that – to know Mosca is not smart. “I don’t need to watch Bachelor In Paradise to know Elise is dumber than a box of rocks,” she Tweeted. “But hey at least everyone agrees with me now.” BURN!!!! The incident that got everyone talking (or scratching their heads) was Elise, per no one’s request, stopping the rose ceremony to say … who the heck knows. Even for a woman who once hooked up with The Situation (seriously) or was in a soft-core flick called Yule Log Hotties (seriously, below), this was all-time. Elise Mosca in Yule Log Hotties Elise and Dylan Pettit had a thing in Paradise , until he thought she was getting too clingy, at which point she got with Chris Bukowski and Dylan was disgusted. After Dylan straight up rejected her rose offering, Mosca mused on life, love and journeys and how as a woman she deserves 100 percent out of something. Every time Elise opens her mouth, she makes less and less sense, and it all culminated in that rose ceremony moment for the ages Monday night. Nikki may be flying by the seat of her pants in openly ridiculing a peer, but Ferrell and Juan Pablo appear to be taking the “DGAF” approach to the show. The nurse previously Tweeted in response to The Bachelorette: After the Final Rose special that she doesn’t know how the producers sleep at night . Not a lot of love lost between Nikki, Juan and anyone involved with the reality TV franchise that made them quasi-famous and brought them together. But they have each other. They have each other.

Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett reportedly staged the barbecue in which they seemed to be getting along so well for the sake of their reality show. We’re not sure why this ever surprises us, but faking an entire event for the sake of a story makes you doubt the “reality” of anything on the show. Despite the drama in their marriage, the embattled duo continues to play nice for the cameras while filming their WeTV reality show Kendra on Top . Apparently this even includes putting on big, fake family gatherings . “The barbecue was definitely staged for the show ,” a source says. “Things are not good between them. Hank is an emotional guy and wants things to work out between them and still hopes that they will, he’d do anything to get her back.” He might have thought of that before his mutual hand relief session with Ava London , the transsexual model whose tryst with Baskett torpedoed the marriage. Whatever you ultimately see on TV, it’s not going well for Hank. ” Kendra is meeting with divorce attorneys trying to get her ducks in a row so that she can proceed once the show ends,” the source tells E! Online. Since the scandal broke, “Kendra and Hank have not been sleeping in the same bed, he’s on the couch quite a bit, anywhere other than with her.” Ouch. And this anecdote might make the odds even worse for him: “She is completely over Hank. Whenever she goes out, she’ll check out the scene and joke around about looking for cute guys. She is doing really well.” While the heartache may never totally cease, she is moving forward, in good spirits, and “focused on her children and making sure they’re comfortable.” Kendra’s rep had no comment. A spokesperson for the show said: “We are currently in production on season three, which will premiere in the fall. We have always followed and will continue to follow the reality of Kendra.” Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett: In Happier Times 1. Kendra and Hank on Christmas How could you pose with Kendra for a Christmas card one second, Hank? And then get it on with a transgender model the next second?!?
Jamie Dornan, Fifty Shades of Grey star and Academy Award winner? If you believe the screenwriter of the upcoming film, he should soon go by that name. 21 Hottest Jamie Dornan Photos 1. Jamie Dornan Shirtless Photo Jamie Dornan modeling shirtless. This is the actor who got the part of Christian Grey. What do you think? Kelly Marcel, who penned the upcoming Fifty Shades adaptation of E.L. James’ erotic novel, says Dornan’s performance is, without a doubt, Oscar worthy. “Apparently Jamie is great at being soft and hard at the same time,” Marcel said, stealing a phrase from Fifty Shades . “Which is hard to do for an actor!” Dornan’s presence and versatility as the film’s lead is so impressive that it deserves an award, according to Marcel, who added, “He’s going to get an Oscar!” It’s hard to tell if she’s serious, but she’s clearly a big fan. Marcel believes his turn as S&M-loving Christian Grey is powerful, nuanced and spectacular, she said during a Q&A on the Aslan’s Writer’s Room series. Fans and critics alike will be able to judge Dornan on more than just the Fifty Shades of Grey trailer when he hits the big screen in February 2015. Marcel also teased the famously boundary-pushing sexual content, which is reportedly teetering over an R-rating. Not that it won’t still be cheesy at times. Fifty Shades of Grey Trailer: 11 Best Moments 1. Whips and Handcuffs! Christian prepares to WORK Ana like you’d expect in a marvelous GIF from the Fifty Shares of Grey trailer. She quoted one of the memorable lines said by Anastasia Steele (played by Dakota Johnson) in Fifty Shades, which references Christian Grey’s “popsicle.” Marcel explained during her interview, “She says that, ‘You are my popsicle.’ That line went in, it’s genius. They apparently did that scene great.” Also great? This recent version of the trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey reenacted by kittens … and another one mashed up with Frozen characters.
Another celebrity death has befallen Hollywood. With Robin Williams having committed suicide on Monday, and Lauren Bacall succumbing to old age yesterday, TMZ now confirms that Million Dollar listing star Edith Flagg has also passed away. A holocaust survivor and a fashion mogul, Edith was a viewer favorite on her grandson Josh Flagg’s program. “My grandmother was a legend, not only in my eyes, but in the eyes of the countless people she helped and touched,” Josh wrote to TMZ via email. “Beverly Hills and LA have lost one of the great members of the community.” In order to escape the Nazis, Edith Flagg fled her native Austria at the age of 19. She eventually made it to the U.S. in the 1940s and built her fortune in the fashion industry. Flagg famously brought polyester to the States after finding the fabric in Switzerland. May she rest in peace. Celebrities We Lost in 2014 1. Philip Seymour Hoffman R.I.P. Philip Seymour Hoffman (1967-2014). He will forever be missed!
The first Fifty Shades of Grey trailer was released last month, and it was either titillating, unintentionally funny or just plain vanilla, depending on your point of view. This parody is none of the above, but darned if it isn’t just as fun if not more to watch the Fifty Shades trailer audio layered over clips from the movie Frozen . Christian Grey loves to let it go … if you know what we mean! (Let us know if you do, we’re not sure that made any sense). Fifty Shades of Frozen Trailer Middle-aged moms forced to watch Frozen for the 10 millionth time whilst daydreaming about Christian ransacking them can now experience both! Sort of! Someone synced the visuals with the 50 Shades dialogue so perfectly, it’s almost as if the Disney characters are animated versions of Christian and Ana. Only unlike his Disney stand-in, Mr. Grey doesn’t do romance. The only clips that couldn’t be reenacted with material featuring the icy fairy tale’s hero and heroine were the brief snippets of Christian’s red room of pain. That’s probably for the best. See below. Fifty Shades of Grey Trailer: 11 Best Moments 1. Whips and Handcuffs! Christian prepares to WORK Ana like you’d expect in a marvelous GIF from the Fifty Shares of Grey trailer.
Robin Williams, who passed away earlier this week, touched millions of people in a legendary career that often reminded us how wonderful a person can be. Now, in a reminder of how terrible people can be, his grieving daughter Zelda Williams says she’s quitting social media after being besieged by Internet trolls. While countless fans have taken to the Internet to express their love and respect for Williams, many others sent horrific comments and pictures to Zelda. The second-oldest of Robin Williams’ children , Zelda initially took the fight to the trolls, asking supporters to report them to social media administrators. Soon enough, realizing how fruitless this is, she decided it was better for her to delete her accounts, after posting a farewell apology and message: “I’m sorry. I should’ve risen above,” Williams Tweeted. “Deleting this from my devices for a good long time, maybe forever. Time will tell. Goodbye.” The mourning 25-year-old also suspended her Instagram, writing: “I will be leaving this account for a bit while I heal and decide if I’ll be deleting it or not. In this difficult time, please try to be respectful of the accounts of myself, my family and my friends.” Zelda defended herself for not sharing more photos of her dad – a ridiculous thing people harassed her about – as well as their relationship in general: 21 Memorable Robin Williams Quotes 1. That You May Contribute a Verse What will YOUR verse be? “Mining our accounts for photos of dad, or judging me on the number of them is cruel and unnecessary,” she added, in response to online criticism. “There are a couple throughout, but the real private moments I shared with him were precious, quiet, and believe it or not, not full of photos or ‘selfies.'” “I shared him with a world where everyone was taking their photo with him, but I was lucky enough to spend time with him without cameras too.” “That was more than enough, and I’m grateful for what little time I had. My favorite family photos are framed in my house, not posted on social media.” “They’ll remain there. They would’ve wound up on the news or blogs then, and certainly would now. That’s not what I want for our memories together.” “Thank you for your respect and understanding in this difficult time. Goodbye.

Here is a new, hate-filled way to get fired from a fast food chain… Charleigh Matice of Morehead City, North Carolina tells WCTI that she recently found a Swastika made of butter cooked into the bun of her chicken sandwich. “Is this a joke? Does somebody really think this is funny?” she asked Matice. “Many people died because of that symbol and it’s not something that should be taken lightly.” She makes an inarguable point. In April, Starbucks apologized for a Satanic symbol appearing – via caramel syrup – in the foam of a patron’s order. And now McDonald’s has done the same, telling Matice that the Jew-hating employee has been fired and issuing the following statement in response to the incident: “We are very sorry for the service that our customers received, and to be clear we have terminated the employee who was involved. We do not tolerate that kind of behavior at McDonald’s, and it’s not what we stand for personally as owners. “It is about providing the best level of service and care to our customers, and anything less than that is unacceptable to us.” It could be worse, of course. As befell one customer in February of this year, you could only get one napkin with your order . Strange But True News Hall of Fame 1.

Kylie Jenner is back with yet another hair-raising Instagram picture. Only this time, unlike her past efforts, we only mean that literally. To celebrate her 17th birthday Sunday, the reality star shaved herself an undercut. Which we didn’t know was even a thing until she helpfully enlightened us. “So this happened yesterday,” she captioned the below photo: Referencing a small buzzed section right above her neck, Jenner also mentioned her cut at the Teen Choice Awards before she provided the close-up. “I shaved the back of my head for my birthday,” she said on the red carpet. “I was just doing my hair and I was like: ‘Why not shave the back of my head?” This was actually more subtle than we expected based on that tease, and the fact that she’s tried out some rather bold colors and short cuts in the past. In any case, the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner family of celebrities seems to be trending shorter with her locks each trip to the salon. She also seems to be morphing rapidly into a 35-year-old. Whether you buy the recent Kylie Jenner plastic surgery rumors or not, she’s growing up FAST. 19 Wildly Inappropriate Photos of Kylie Jenner 1.
