TLC’s Danielle Busby Teams Up With Audrey Roloff’s Clothing Line!

TLC favorites are crossing over! On March 7, the  OutDaughtered  star Danielle Busby took to Instagram to announce to her fans that she is partnering with Always More, a clothing company started by former  Little People, Big World  star Audrey Roloff. And we’re cheering hard.  “One thing is for sure, this @shopalwaysmore NEW ROSE SHERPA is a.m.a.z.i.n.g!” Danielle wrote while modeling the fluffy sweatshirt.  “It literally is the softest out of all my sherpas I own.” She concluded her post by sharing her personal code: danielle15 for her fans to receive a discount.  And she also, of course, tagged  Audrey and her husband Jeremy Roloff in the pic.  It took the new mom approximately three seconds to chime in, writing “LOVEEEEEEE” with three heart emojis in the comment section.  Her sister-in-law even shared her support, writing “get it girl!” to the mother of 6. But the fans brought the most excitement, writing, “My two favorite worlds colliding!!!!” Another agreed, saying, “Love @shopalwaysmore!! And I love watching two amazingly strong women like you @dbusby and @audreyroloff!” Audrey introduced her Always More brand via her blog where she shared the meaning behind the words. “Over the years I have kept every pair of running shoes that I have ever had. I spray paint them red, write notes on/in them, say a prayer, and throw them on telephone wires near places significant to my life,” she wrote. “It has become my way of letting go of a certain season in my life, and embracing a new one.” “On the bottom of every pair I write “ALWAYS MORE,” she continued. “These words represent the way I strive to live, based on my motives for living that way.” This isn’t the first member of the TLC fam to show their love towards Audrey’s multiple ventures.  Just three weeks earlier, Jinger Duggar from Counting On posted a sweet photo with her hubby Jeremy Vuolo with the message, “He is everything I asked God for in a husband – he loves Christ supremely, is loving, compassionate, caring, humble, and sincere.” “Every day with you is sweeter than the day before – I love you, baby! #3sentencelovestory @beating50percent.” Beating 50 Percent is another one of Audrey’s passion projects which is all about beating the divorce rate statistics and staying married no matter what, so totally appropriate for the devoted Duggar fam .  And while Danielle is most likely receiving a commission for every item she sells using her code, Jinger seems to be simply a fan of the concept of Beating 50 Percent.  But there’s nothing at all wrong with Danielle’s position, I mean, she does have six children at home to feed and we totally back the duo’s partnership. Fans were shocked to learn of the somewhat recent news that  Audrey and Jeremy Roloff were leaving the show  Little People, Big World . However, I’m sure they can rest easy knowing that the two aren’t completely shutting TLC out of their life, considering the remaining friendly support. We think it’s great the moms are teaming up and we hope to see even more from them in the future!  View Slideshow: Audrey and Jeremy Roloff: Why They REALLY Quit Little People, Big World

Javi Marroquin: We’re Gonna Have Another Baby!

As previously reported,  Javi Marroquin is done being a douche . And he’s now ready to be a father! AGAIN! The former Teen Mom 2 cast member is already a dad to five-year old Lincoln, who he shares with ex-wife Kailyn Lowry. He also welcomed a precious son named Eli back in November with very serious girlfriend Lauren Comeau. And even though that was mere months ago, and even though raising these two young kids at the same time must present quite the challenge… Javi says he’s up for more. Challenges? Sure. But challenges in the form of more children we mean! “I’m ready when she’s ready,” Javi told OK! Magazine this week about expanding his immediate family, prior to adding of Lauren: “But she’s not ready.” Well, no. She only just squeezed a human being out of her body this past November! Give her a little bit of time, dude! Why the desire for another child? Marroquin, for all the issues he may have had a a romantic partner for Lowry, has already seemed like a great and dedicated father. Just check out his Instagram page. It is overflowing with cute pictures of him and Lincoln; and, more recently, of him and Eli. But Javi also says here that there’s another reason he hopes Comeau’s egg gets fertilized by his sperm in the semi-near future. “We are still trying for that girl! We want that girl,” he admitted. Just a couple years ago, we would have shuddered at the thought of Marroquin procreating once again. He and Kailyn were constantly fighting and drama followed the MTV personality around everywhere he went. However, Briana DeJesus – who briefly dated Javi before he got together with Comeau about a year ago – actually revealed an interesting and almost flattering truth when she recently said no one cares about Marroquin anymore . That’s sort of true… … but it’s because he really does seem to have cleaned up his act and has stayed away from the spotlight of late. He truly seems content to just spend time with Comeau and his sons and to focus on the crossfit facility he recently opened up in Delaware. How boring, right? And admirable. Do Marroquin and Comeau have a time table for trying to get pregnant again? When might they make major news once more? “Eli is a handful for now, we will take our time. I think we said next year, we’ll try next year,” Javi says in this interview. Prior to this blessed event taking place, though, it sounds like we’ll see Comeau on Teen Mom 2 , which ought to be interesting for viewers. Javi and Lauren met at a wedding in July of 2017 and then broke up in September of that year. Javi made many headlines in the subsequent months for sleeping with both Briana and Kailyn, only to find himself back in the arms of Comeau in March of 2018. “Sometimes, two people have to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together,” she wrote on Instagram shortly afterward. Pretty sweet, right? We wish these two the very best with their future baby plans — and their current baby raising.

R. Kelly’s Girlfriend Breaks Down in Defense of Awful Singer

R. Kelly has found two people to come to his defense. And they're the same two people he's accused of kidnapping, holding hostage and illegally sleeping with. Earlier this week, R. Kelly talked to Gayle King about his recent arrest and the accusations that he has basically created a sex cult with Azriel Clary, 21, and Joycelyn Savage, 23. The artist ranted and raved and screamed and broke down in crocodile tears when faced with pressing questions from King, who remained admirably calm in the face of such nonsense. You can watch Kelly proclaim his innocent, in a VERY unconvincing manner, right here: In a follow-up interview, King talked with Clary and Savage, whose parents say Kelly abducted and has been abusing for years. Kelly, in turn, has said that these same parents handed over their children to him at a concert and, hey, what is he supposed to do… give them back? No. Really. This is R. Kelly's explanation . While Clary and Savage's parents have long claimed that the star has manipulated and brainwashed their daughters, the two women have presented a very different version of the story to King. “When I first met Robert, my parents told me to lie about my age, so when I met him he thought that I was 18,” Clary said to King, denying that she ever had sex with R. Kelly when she was 17. “On top of that, when I was 17, my parents were actually making me, trying to get me to take photos with him, take sexual videos with him – all kinds of stuff… “… Because if they ever have to blackmail him, what they're trying to do now, they can use it against him, which is exactly what they're doing.” For the record, it does seem like some very weird and shady stuff went on between Clary's parents and R. Kelly. But are you familiar with R. Kelly's past? With the tape that depicted him urinating on a 14-year old in bed? Go ahead and take his side at your own ethical peril. Savage, meanwhile, was in agreement with the allegations as she nodded along while Clary spoke. “Everything she's saying is true. Our parents are basically out here to get money,” she said, adding: “Both of our parents are basically out here to try and get money and scam because they didn't agree on what happened with music or wherever it could be and they're just very upset.” Clary even alleged that her parents started to threaten her and R. Kelly that they would release naked photos of her if he doesn't send thousands of dollars to a bank account.  “You're trying to solicit me like I'm some f-cking hoe. I'm not. I'm your child,” she screamed at one point. A lawyer for Clary's' parents say that this is all just further proof that R. Kelly has “manipulated” Clary and spent years abusing her mentally, claims that Clary strongly denies. To the point of tears. “I'm crying because you guys don't know the truth,” she says here. “You guys are believing some f-cking fascade that our parents are saying. This is all f-cking lies for money and if you can't see that, you're ignorant and you're stupid as f-ck because you want to be all – because that's the world we live in. “Negativity sells, gossip is what sells, rumors are what sell.” Watch this disturbing interview for more.

Jana Duggar: THIS Is Why I’m My Parents’ Favorite!

As you’re probably aware Jana Duggar is still single. The general assumption is that Jana is too picky, or that she’s simply struggled to find Mr. Right. But what if there’s more to the situation than meets the eye? What if there are reasons for Jana to stay on the compound that go beyond her feelings of obligation toward her younger siblings (whom she currently homeschools)? No, we’re not talking about the possibility that Jana is in love with Laura Demasie. We’re talking about the popular theory that Jana was chosen to remain at home and help around the compound. It’s been a popular topic of conversation in Duggar message boards for quite some time. The most common hypothesis is that Jana demonstrated a talent for child rearing. Thus, her parents decided it was more important for her to assist in raising her younger siblings than to have children of her own. But what if there’s another explanation? What if Jim Bob and Michelle selected Jana simply because she’s their favorite, and they wanted to keep her around? You see, in addition to her skills with young people, Jana has many other talents and a gift for taking charge of large projects. This week, for example, Jana spearheaded an initiative to completely redecorate Jim Bob and Michelle’s bedroom while the couple was out of town. While it’s true that her siblings participated in the project as well, the whole thing was reportedly Jana’s brainchild. “We surprised my parents while they were away and remodeled their room for them,” Jana captioned an Instagram post about the project. “This is the reveal and them seeing it for the first time!” Jana went on to sing her parents’ praises, writing: “Sometimes you have to find ways to give back to those that have given so much to you! “We love and appreciate you so much Mom & Dad! ” “Oh wow! I can’t believe it,” Jim Bob exclaimed in a video posted by Jana. “I can’t believe it, mama. This is like paradise!” “That is stunning!” said Michelle. “This is too beautiful to be true.” Jana added that she installed a bench because her parents counsel others so often. (So now they’re gonna counsel people in their bedroom? Weird.) Now, it’s possible that one of Jana’s siblings would have taken charge of such a project if she hadn’t. But Jana has a long history of going the extra mile in unexpected ways. She’s been described as an “indispensable” presence around the Duggar home. And it’s possible that her parents decided they simply can’t live without her.

Larissa Lima Boyfriend Reveals How They Met, Shares What He Loves Most

Though Larissa Lima regrets going on 90 Day Fiance , these days, her life is very different. She's no longer contending with Colt Johnson's constant cheating or with Debbie “making her life hell.” Instead, Larissa now has a brand new boyfriend. Together, the two of them have revealed how they met. We also learn her boy-toy's age and what he likes most about Larissa — and more. Take a look: 1. Larissa is dating again! In recent weeks, she’s gone from hiding his face to showing him to her followers to making public appearances with him on her arm. And now we know so much more about him 2. First of all, he has a name His name is Eric! No word yet as to whether Larissa refers to him as Ericee. It’s possible that time in the US combined with her bad experiences with Colt may have taken the fun out of adding an -ee to words. 3. So, what does Eric love most about Larissa? “It’s gonna have to be her scent,” Eric tells E!. “It’s very breathtaking.” 4. To be clear, that’s not all “Her personality,” Eric notes. “I like her accent.” That is … probably a much better answer, though you can go a lot worse than mentioning that a woman smells nice. 5. So what was it like when they met? “It was a very interesting scenario,” Eric describes. “It was a very windy evening, and I actually had to run and grab my car.” 6. It sounds like she was still recovering from being with Colt “She wanted to go with me. I said ‘I insist that you probably stay here,’ and she thought I was gonna leave her,” Eric says. That … really sounds like a woman who is accustomed to not being treated with a lot of kindness. View Slideshow

Alex Trebek: Jeopardy Host Reveals Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosis

Sad news out of the world of television today, as beloved Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek has revealed that he’s battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Trebek shared his diagnosis with fans in a heartfelt message posted on YouTube.  Alex Trebek: I Have Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer “Hi everyone, I have some news to share with all of you and it’s in keeping with my longtime policy of being open and transparent with our Jeopardy! fan base,” Trebek said. “I also wanted to prevent you from reading or hearing some overblown or inaccurate reports regarding my health. So therefore, I wanted to be the one to pass along this information,” the 78-year-old TV legend continued. “Now, just like 50,000 other people in the United States each year, this week I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Now normally, the prognosis for this is not very encouraging, but I’m going to fight this, and I’m going to keep working. “And with the love and support of my family and friends and with the help of your prayers also, I plan to beat the low survival rate statistics for this disease. Trebek concluded his message with his trademark wry humor, saying: “Truth told, I have to! Because under the terms of my contract, I have to host Jeopardy! for three more years! “So help me. Keep the faith and we’ll win. We’ll get it done. Thank you.” Trebek has been the face of Jeopardy! since the show was revived in 1984 following its original run under host Art Fleming. Considered by many to be the most iconic game show host of television’s modern era, Trebek’s erudition and deadpan wit have endeared him to generations of fans. The news of his grim diagnosis has been met with great concern by Jeopardy ‘s devoted fan base — but many reactions on social media are tinged with the same hope that Trebek encouraged in his announcement. Clearly, Alex is a man who’s looking to the future. In addition to his recently renewed contract with the show, Trebek recently speculated as to who might one day replace him on the show, citing CNN’s Laura Coates, LA Kings announcer Alex Faust and TCM’s Ben Mankiewicz as personal favorites. In the meantime, we hope he’ll continue to provide the answer to the question “who is television’s most courageous host?” for many years to come. Our thoughts go out to Trebek and his family during this difficult time. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Beat Cancer

Oprah: Attacked By Michael Jackson Fans Following Leaving Neverland Special

As you’ve likely heard by now, this week saw the premiere of the controversial documentary Leaving Neverland on HBO. The film has left countless viewers scandalized, and many say it left them with no doubt that Michael Jackson is guilty of child molestation.  Of course, as is usually the case with decades-old controversies, there are vehement believers on both sides of the argument. The Jackson family has decried the film as an act of ” public lynching ,” and an attempt to denigrate a man who’s no longer alive to defend himself. Around the world, protesters have gathered at screenings of the film to show their support for Jackson and loudly declare their belief in the late music legend’s innocence. The debate has mostly involved those who believe Jackson’s accusers and the much smaller group who maintains that the pop star is innocent. But one of the world’s most famous people has found herself unexpectedly caught in the middle. Following Monday night’s conclusion of the two-part docuseries, HBO aired a follow-up special entitled Oprah Winfrey Presents: After Neverland . The goal of the broadcast was to shed light on the accusations against Jackson through interviews with two of his alleged victims. It was also part of an effort to provide support for those whose lives have been touched by abuse and who may have been triggered by the revelations contained in Leaving Neverland . Oprah is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, and she presented the facts of the Jackson case in a clear and level-headed fashion. Nevertheless, she now finds herself the victim of a targeted harassment campaign spearheaded by Jackson defenders. Multiple outlets are reporting today that Winfrey has received death threats, and the insults hurled at the media icon in online discussion forums are truly nauseating. The situation is made even more appalling by the fact that Oprah has been an outspoken advocate for child abuse survivors throughout her life. “It happened to me at 9, and then 10, and then 11, and then 12, 13, 14. You don’t have the language to begin to explain what’s happening to you,” Oprah told People magazine last year. “That’s why you feel you’re not going to be believed. And if the abuser, the molester, is any good, they will make you feel that you are complicit, that you were part of it,” she added. “That’s what keeps you from telling.” To our minds, the things that Jackson confessed to during the various investigations into his alleged sex crimes are enough to render him forever indefensible. But the fact that those who choose to defend him are now attacking survivors of child sexual trauma has brought this already ugly situation to a new depth. Fortunately, brave souls such as Wade Robson, James Safechuck, and Oprah Winfrey will not be intimidated into silence.

Taylor Swift Trashes Kim Kardashian: She’s a Bully!

Taylor Swift is reigniting her feud with Kim Kardashian . Kind of. Sort of. In our view, anyway. The singer has joined forces with Elle magazine to share 30 lessons she has learned over the years ahead of her 30th birthday in December 2019. (Yes, they're looking way ahead here. We've included many excerpts from this cover story below, but we've focused mostly on what Swift has to say about Ray J's former sex tape partner. She really holds little back here. Scroll down to see what we mean… 1. How Did This Feud Start Again? Back in July of 2016, Kardashian posted Snapchat videos of Swift talking with West about his song “Famous,” which featured the lyrics: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous.” 2. Swift Had Previously Acted Aghast Over This Lyric So Kim was basically exposing Taylor as a liar for pretending to have been blindsided by Kanye’s reference to her in the single. 3. God, You Two! Swift fired back at Kimye on Instagram, saying memorably on her page: “I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009.” (That’s a reference to when Kanye interruped her speech at the MTV VMAs.) 4. Swift is a Snake! Kim went on to use a snake emoji as a not-so-subtle way to slam Swift on numerous subsequent occasions. 5. But She’s Moved On at This Point When asked about her rivalry with the artist on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in January, the Kardashian explained that she’s “over” the drama, adding: “I feel like we’ve all moved on.” 6. Is Swift, Though? “Disarming someone’s petty bullying can be as simple as learning to laugh,” she tells Elle, teeing up some candid quotes about Kim. View Slideshow

Anfisa Nava: Haters Are Turning Me Into an Anxious Mess

90 Day Fiance alum Anfisa Nava has been undergoing an intense body transformation . But even before her foray into bodybuilding, Anfisa was no stranger to receiving hate and trolling on social media. In a new post, she has opened up for the first time about how the hate impacts her. Anfisa has usually had a very Russian approach to her feelings — because she has avoided opening up about vulnerabilities. Now, she’s letting the mask drop and showing fans and followers how she really feels. “I would lie if I said negative comments don’t ever get to me,” Anfisa begins. “They do.” “And,” she writes. “I feel like lately I’ve been turning from outspoken honest person into somebody else.” “I’ve been trying to be a people’s pleaser,” she admits. “(Which I’ve never been before).” “I’ve been feeling anxious in public thinking that everybody is looking at me and judging me,” Anfisa reveals. “I don’t post much on Instagram and YouTube,” she notes. Anfisa explains that this is “because I think: ‘who cares about what I have to say?'” She continues: “or ‘thats not something people want to see.'” Anfisa adds: “or ‘I have a pimple/broken nail/(insert another little imperfection) so I won’t make a video because somebody will surely point it out.'” “As I am writing this out now,” Anfisa admits. “It seems funny and stupid.” “But,” she writes. “All these thoughts have really been giving me so much anxiety.” Those thoughts are, in fact, the products of anxiety. It sounds like she’s experiencing self doubts and possibly even a mild form of scopophobia — anxiety at being seein. Anfisa says that all o this has been plaguing her “And it made me so exhausted.” “I’m finally coming to realizing that it can’t be like that anymore,” Anfisa affirms. “And something has to change.” “First step to solving a problem is acknowledging it, right?” she asks rhetorically. She is correct. “That’s why I’m sharing all this with you,” Anfisa explains. There’s more behind her willingness to open up about this, however. “I sometimes get messages from people saying that they admire how I deal with all the struggles,” Anfisa notes. “But the truth is,” she says. “I have my bad days/weeks when I just don’t know what to do.” That is the most relatable that Anfisa has ever been. She continues: “I don’t want to pretend to be perfect and like I got my s–t together when I don’t.” Sometimes, faking it until you make it is the key to success. But it can also be emotionally exhausting and nerve-wracking. “Maybe some of you are going through similar struggles,” Anfisa suggests. She concludes: “and I just wanted to remind you (and myself) that it’s ok to not be ok.” Anfisa has absolutely been problematic in the past, but she’s showing a lot of character growth recently. No matter what you think of her, she doesn’t need to be bombarded with hate. It sounds like she already has enough on her plate, you know?
