Posted on February 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jenelle Evans has finally made an intelligent decision. Following an endless array of homophobic insults by David Eason, along with violent behavior that seemingly culminated in Eason assaulting Evans last October… the Teen Mom star at last separated from her awful husband. She has not yet confirmed this development, but we have many reasons to believe it's the case . We also now have new information regarding what prompted this break-up. According to The Ashley, Jenelle got into an intense debate/argument with MTV producers just days before she cut Eason loose. What was said during this phone call? You are moment away from finding out… 1. FINALLY! Even Jenelle’s harshest critics have been clamoring for her to dump David for months and months now, even before he seemingly assaulted her in October. 2. How Do We Know She Finally Did It? Single AF. Evans appeared to make it very clear a few days ago upon changing her profile. 3. I’m Also Single! Eason then followed suit, which is as close to confirmation as you can get these days of a break-up: both sides changing their statuses online. 4. Why Now? Why not back when Jenelle openly said Eason broke her collarbone, you mean? Well… the latest run of Teen Mom 2 episodes have focused on this incident, specifically Jenelle’s 911 call that accused Eason of attacking her. Sources say this rehashing has stirred up tension between the couple. 5. This is the 911 Call in Question Give it a listen. It could not be more clear what Evans is saying Eason did to her. 6. But We’re Gonna Talk About Another Call Now The Ashley writes that Jenelle has been growing more and more anxious as these episodes have aired. She reportedly had a lengthy call with producers mere days before splitting from Eason, specifically calling out Kristen Schylinski for trying to sabotage her marriage. View Slideshow

Jussie Smollett: Is He Being Framed By Police?

Posted on February 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For several weeks now, the strange saga of Jussie Smollett has dominated headlines and heated social media discussions. In case you somehow missed the story, here’s a brief recap: Smollett claimed that he was attacked by two white men while walking home from a Subway restaurant around 2 am. Despite frigid, polar vortex weather, Smollett stated that the two men had staked him out and recognized him from his role on TV’s Empire . He added that they came equipped with a bottle of bleach that they dumped over his head and a length of clothesline that they wrapped around his neck in an act mock lynching. Smollett claimed that the men used several racist and homophobic slurs and screamed at him, “This is MAGA country!” Many found the actor’s version of events suspicious from the start, but Smollett quickly gained the support of numerous celebrities and politicians, including presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Cory Booker. Over the course of the past week, however, Smollett’s story began to unravel. Currently, Chicago police are investigating the possibility that Smollett staged the attack with the help of two Nigerian who briefly worked as extras on Empire. His case is set to go before a grand jury as early this week. If convicted of a felony for filing a false police report, Smollett faces several years behind bars. So it should come as no surprise that he’s lawyering up — or that he’s reportedly hired one of the most famous defense attorneys in the country. According to TMZ, Smollett has hired Mark Geragos to represent him in court. Neither Smollett nor Geragos has officially announced that decision, but the attorney has spoken out on Jussie’s behalf on several occasions, most recently on Anderson Cooper’s CNN show: “Any time you start to get law enforcement drip, drip, drip leaks that, to me, is a telltale sign that something else is going on,” Geragos told the host. Geragos went on to express his doubts that it would have been possible for police to track down Smollett’s alleged co-conspirators via the “grainy footage” that was presented to them. He credits Smollett’s cooperation with the arrest of the brothers, and states — in somewhat contradictory fashion — that they were only taken into custody due to public “pressure” to make an arrest. “I haven’t seen anything but leaks from law enforcement sources,” Geragos added. “To me, that screams out that someone is trying to manipulate something.” No doubt by this time, many on both sides of the aisle would prefer for this ugly story to disappear from the headlines. But as Geragos and Smollett gear up for an epic legal battle, we’re reminded that this saga is just getting started. View Slideshow: Jussie Smollett: Did He REALLY Stage His Own Attack?!

Jenelle Evans to MTV Bosses: Show Me Some Respect or I QUIT!

Posted on February 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In the early days of reality television, a large part of the appeal was that viewers could identify with the stars on their screen. These days, however, cast members on hit reality shows share very little in common with their viewers. Take Jenelle Evans, for example. Sure, you might have a friend with an arrest record a mile long, three kids by three different baby daddies, and an overly-chummy relationship with illicit substances, but that friend probably isn't gainfully employed. And if she is, she almost certainly doesn't talk to bosses the way Jenelle does. Fans were floored to see Evans berate Teen Mom 2 producers during Monday night's episode, and many think her outburst may be the result of a full-blown meltdown. Take a look: 1. Jenelle’s Meltdown Jenelle didn’t appear in this week’s episode of TM2 for very long. But during her short time on screen, she made quite an impression. 2. Small Role Jenelle’s screen time has been slashed dramatically this season, primarily as a result of her husband, David Eason, being fired from the show. 3. Making It Worse Producers never planned to punish Jenelle for the homophobic tirade that got David fired, but her role on the show wound up being reduced due to Eason’s actions. 4. Menacing Dave There have been reports of David “menacing” the cast and Jenelle refusing to film without her husband. 5. Big Bluff? Of course, she hasn’t made good on that threat, as doing so would mean walking away from a six-figure salary and the only job she’s ever had. 6. New Co-Star And so, Jenelle continues to film — but far less often than she used to, and with Barbara Evans taking David’s place as the sounding board for Evans’ many complaints. View Slideshow

Brendan McLoughlin Cheated on Fiancee, Knocked Up Mistress: Report

Posted on February 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Brendan McLoughlin is probably very happy that he’s now married to Miranda Lambert. But the heretofore unknown police officer is probably less than thrilled that his newfound fame has opened up his closet to the public… … especially when that closest is allegedly filled with a pretty huge skeleton. McLoughlin has found himself all over the news of late because Lambert stunned Instagram followers on Sunday when she announced that she actually married this random person. The country superstar has never once uttered his name prior to this revealing post, but then shared two photos from her wedding day over the weekend and wrote as a caption to them both: In honor of Valentine’s Day I wanted to share some news. I met the love of my life. And we got hitched! My heart is full.  Thank you Brendan Mcloughlin for loving me for…. me. Follow-up reports have since confirmed that Lambert and McLoughlin got married on January 26 in Tennessee. With the Internet scrambling to learn as much as possible about this Brendan McLoughlin fella, the following has been reported: 1. McLoughlin is police officer from New York. 2. McLoughlin once created a profile on a modeling website, hoping to use turn his attractive appearance into an occupation. 3. McLoughlin is an avid runner. 4. McLoughlin is a father of a baby only just born this past November. And it’s this final fact that is now the subject of controversy. According to Us Weekly, McLoughlin was engaged to someone named Jackie Bruno last year — only to not only cheat on her, but to get the woman with whom he cheated PREGNANT. The tabloid quotes Jackie’s mother, Carol, is relaying this story to its readers. “She was engaged to Brendan and he cheated on her and got another girl pregnant,” Carol told Us . “It’s all true.” If this allegation is valid, then the child born just three months ago to McLoughlin belongs to his mistress, which would explain why he was able to move on so quickly to Lambert. Radar Online has alleged that Lambert and McLoughlin met a mere three days before the latter became a father. They crossed paths in early November when Lambert was in town to play a song on Good Morning America and McLoughlin was assigned to the South Midtown Precinct in The Big Apple at the time. Less than a week later, Kaihla Rettinger reportedly gave birth to her and Brendan’s baby, a boy named Landon. The cop reportedly posted a since-deleted photo, where he’s cradling his newborn and next to which he wrote: “Blessed to have a healthy son. Welcome my boy, Landon James McLoughlin 11/5/18.” Carol tells Us Weekly that her daughter was “thrown for a loop” and had “no clue” McLoughlin was cheating on her. She also says it was actually Rettinger who told Jackie of her pregnancy. “The girl contacted her. Jackie was in Sweden playing professional soccer, got injured and came home and the girl contacted her. She broke the news to her.. “[Brendan] tried to deny it and then begged her to stay with him. “She was only going for a few months to play, he was begging her to marry him before she left, even though he knew the girl was pregnant.” Lambert, of course, ended her four-year marriage to Blake Shelton in 2015. She reportedly did not tell him of her plans to marry again last month, not that she was under any obligation to do so. In between these weddings, Lambert dated Evan Felker… who happened to be married when he got together with the artist . It sure sounds like Miranda Lambert is drawn to drama, doesn’t it?

Kailyn Lowry: I’m Nervous to Date These Quavo Doppelgangers!

Posted on February 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kailyn Lowry really wants to have a fourth child and has a very strong crush on the rapper Quavo. Combine these two facts and you get… … the veteran Teen Mom cast member returning to MTV this week by appearing on a dating show that sets up reality stars with those who look like their celebrities crushes. It’s confusing, we know. Or perhaps it’s just very, very stupid. Either way, however, the dating series Game of Clones premeres this Thursday and Lowry will be playing a major role on it. Game of Clones will feature MTV personalities Lowry, Pauly D, Cara Maria Sorbello, Kam Williams, Leroy Garrett and Nicole Zanatta. It will set these D-Listers up with strangers who have a passing resemblance to famous people over whom these stars have gushed in the past. In Kailyn’s case, that means Migos rapper Quavo — and, as you can see in the trailer below, the mother of three is very “nervous” to meet his doppelgangers. Game of Clones Trailer According to MTV, the contestants will be “forced to look beyond each identical face in hope of finding their perfect match.” The program will use a series of compatibility tests and dates as each “clone” does his or her best to stand out from the lookalike competition. Kailyn will end up on dates with seven men who kind of remind her of Quavo, but will she find love with any of these suitors?  It doesn’t sound that way. In a recent Instagram Q&A session, Lowry claimed she “wasn’t thinking” when she agreed to go on Game of Clones. It wasn’t really the best experience for her. However, despite her dismay with her participation, Kailyn said there were some positives that came out of filming. “Met cool people but [I’m] also embarrassed and wished I didn’t [go on the show],” she told followers. Lowry, of course, doesn’t have the best dating history, so we can understand why she thought producers might have been able to succeed where she has failed. The star has three kinds by three different men, which may be why she claims to be done with the gender overall . In the same Q&A session cited above, Lowry said she was happy with the dating show because has no real interest in being with “another man,” echoing a sentiment she expressed earlier in the month. “Heard ‘Game of Clones’ commercial came out. Let’s just make it clear I would never be with another man again so…” Tweeted Lowry after the first Game of Clones ad aired. Kailyn, however, doesn’t just talk this talk. She’s also been known to munch the carpet. The Teen Mom 2 veteran was previously in a same-sex romance with Dominique Potter . And even though it didn’t end with wedding bells or even long-term happiness, it’s apparent that Lowry enjoyed the relationship. She remains focused on boobs over bros these days. But not all people with boobs, that is. As documented in detail below, Lowry still have major problems with fellow Teen Mom cast member Jenelle Evans… and we don’t blame her one bit. View Slideshow: Kailyn Lowry to Jenelle Evans: You Need to Clean Up Your Act, You Hot Mess! Game of Clones premieres Thursday, February 21 at 9 p.m. EST with back-to-back episodes. Will you be tuning in for it?

Mackenzie Standifer: SLAMMED For Partying While Ryan Edwards Is In Jail!

Posted on February 18, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It's been one month since Ryan Edwards was arrested for heroin possession and skipping out on a bar tab. The former Teen Mom OG star remains behind bars, and his future isn't looking particularly bright. In fact, it seems unlikely that Ryan will emerge from this situation without serving some sort of sentence for violating his probation in such an egregious fashion. Despite her husband's repeated relapses and brushes with the law, however, Mackenzie Standifer is standing by her man. But according to a new report from The Ashley's Reality Roundup , she's not letting him off the hook , and she knows exactly what kind of changes will need to be made whenever Ryan gets released. Take a look: 1. One Long Rough Patch It would be a massive understatement to say that Ryan and Mackenzie’s relationship has seen its share of difficulties. 2. Hard Times Ryan has been arrested three times in the past 18 months, and it looks as though his latest brush with the law will carry some serious consequences. 3. Doin’ Time Ryan is currently behind bars, and he’ll remain locked up at least until his April 15 court date. 4. Denied Bond “The case has been continued to April 15, 2019,” a Clerk of Court for Red Bank in Tennessee told Radar Online. “He’s going to serve time in county jail until then.” 5. Another Long Absence His time behind bars comes on the heels of a 90-day stint in rehab that ended in late November. 6. Making It Through Mackenzie has described Ryan’s time in rehab as “the longest 90 days” of her life. View Slideshow

Kylie Jenner: Okay, This HAS to Be an Engagement Ring, Right?

Posted on February 18, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Hooray! Yipee! Congratulations! All of this praise is finally due to Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott because the superstar couple has at least agreed to marry. How exciting, right?!? Granted, neither Jenner nor Scott has confirmed this development. Nor has anyone in Jenner’s family nor anyone in Scott’s camp. But still. Kylie has shared a new picture on her Instagram Story and we’re convinced it’s of a diamond engagement ring. As you can see below, the image features Jenner’s left hand on the steering wheel and a pretty huge rock taking up a sizable portion of her finger. She included a timestamp, showing that the photo was taken at 8:18 a.m., and the caption reads: “two cover shoots on this fine Sunday.” To be fair, this is not the first time Jenner has rocked a diamond ring that resulted in her fans wondering if Scott finally popped the life-altering question.  Heck, just a few weeks ago, we wondered whether Kylie was engaged AND pregnant . How else were we to respond after Jenner posted the picture below of her and Scott and even wrote along with it,  baby #2 ? It’s rather obvious at this stage that Jenner likes teasing her fans, playing with their emotions and seeing how they’ll react to a potential engagement. Just consider: On social media, Jenner and her rapper often refer to each other as “hubby” or “wifey” — and they even labeled their Christmas gifts to one another as “daddy” and “wifey.” The duo is apparently so secretive about their plans to marry (or not) that Kim Kardashian has admitted she isn’t certain where they stand. “I think she would have told me,” Kardashian recently said on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon when asked about Jenner and Scott’s relationship. Kim added in this interview: “She’s pretty secretive, but I’m sure she would have told me. I’m not really sure. But I don’t think so.” Really, though, it remains a question of when , not if, at this point. Scott himself admitted as much late last year in a cover story for Rolling Stone. “We’ll get married soon,” Scott said quite simply to this magazine, teasing his proposal and making it sound as if he knows what the answer will be when it happens: “I just gotta study up – I gotta propose in a fire way.” The artist doesn’t speak on Jenner very much, but he did gush over her in his own unique way when speaking to this publication. “People don’t understand how real my girl is. How ill she is,” Scott said, making us laugh by concluding: “They have assumptions, bullshit-ass remarks of what they think is going on. Nah, bro… She’s the coolest motherf-cker of all time.” View Slideshow: The Kardashians: How Many Babies Will They Crank Out in 2019?

Ronnie Magro: I Got Sober Because of Mike Sorrentino!

Posted on February 18, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Last week, we reported that Ronnie Ortiz-Magro has completed rehab after undergoing 30 days of treatment for alcoholism and depression. The troubled Jersey Shore star says he’s happier and healthier than ever now that he’s addressed his issues. And he says he owes it all to his best frenemy, Mike Sorrentino. As you may recall, Sorrentino is currently behind bars on tax evasion charges. But apparently, Ronnie was inspired by the manner in which Mike turned his troubled life around in the years before his sentence. “Mike definitely pushed me to get healthy. Just him being around was definitely an inspiration,” Ronnie told Us Weekly in a recent interview. Ronnie says he still communicates with Mike on a daily basis via email.  “He was just like, ‘I’m proud of you … I’m glad that you finally got to your point,’” Ronnie said of the conversation in which he informed Mike of his sobriety. “He’s like, ‘People can try to push you and force you to do things that you want, but that’s not the way you get someone to do it. You have to want to do it.’” Of course, Rahn wouldn’t be Rahn if he didn’t slip in a good-natured joke at Mike’s expense. “We talk every day through email,” Ronnie said of Mike. “He’s doing great. He still has his positive attitude. He still sounds like he swallowed a book of poetry.” Magro went on to say that he attributes much of his erratic behavior on Shore to his struggles with alcohol and depression. And it was Mike who helped him to recognize the nature of his problem: “When you’re the way I was – just depressed, always angry, resentful and just regretful was a big thing – you look at him and you’re like, ‘I want that. I want to be positive,'” Ronnie says. As for Ronnie’s troubled relationship with Jen Harley , it seems the couple is still trying to make it work — although Ronnie seems resigned to the fact that there may be a breakup in his near future. “She’s always going to be the mother of my child, at the end of the day,” he told Us . “All I can do is control myself and the things that I do. “At the end of the day, I want to be the best father that I can be, and that means that I have to take care of myself.  I can’t control her.” In conclusion, Ronnie says that he hopes he can inspire others in the way that The Situation inspired him: “I hope that it encourages a lot of people, whether it’s her or people in my family, or my friends,” he said. “I don’t want to be this person that’s this angry and resentful and just has so many regrets.” Clearly, Ronnie and Mike have come a long way since the days of their occasionally ugly roast battles.

Blake Shelton Blindsided by Miranda Lambert Marriage Bombshell

Posted on February 18, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Over the weekend after Valentine’s Day, the world learned that Miranda Lambert has a new husband . That was so unexpected — fans never saw it coming. And neither, it turns out, did her ex-husband Blake Shelton, who was as in the dark as the rest of us. RadarOnline   reports that Blake Shelton did not receive any kind of forewarning or courtesy call about Miranda’s new marriage. “Blake found about the wedding at the same time everyone else did,” an insider reveals. A lot of celebrities will inform an ex, even through a friend or agent, so that they’re not blindsided. The source notes: “He was NOT given a heads up and doesn’t know her new husband.” “Since they split,” the insider adds. “They have had almost zero contact.” After Miranda Lambert broke things off with Evan Felker , she kept her new relationship fairly quiet. Which is why her fans and followers were absolutely shocked to learn that she’d gotten hitched. Back when she was with Anderson East, there were definitely rumors of engagements and wedding plans. But this news about Brendan Mcloughlin didn’t just have people wondering when they had decided to get hitched. It had people wondering who the frick Brendan is and when he and Miranda had started dating. It’s not especially shocking to hear that Miranda didn’t tip off Blake about her union. Their break-up was less than amicable. Though both have accused the other of cheating on them, it was Blake who reportedly set all of Miranda’s things out on the porch. To make matters worse, Blake effectively kept the Country music community in the divorce. Miranda found herself the “loser” in the divorce, so to speak. Combined with Blake being publicly pitied and so famously moving on with Gwen Stefani, and we can imagine that there are a lot of bitter feelings. Speaking of Miranda’s feelings … is she okay? We’re not just talking about this spontaneous marriage, though it is sudden and unexpected. Just last week, Miranda got into an altercation at a steakhouse . Miranda and her dining companion were confronted by an older couple, and ended with Miranda’s salad on another woman’s head. While the scuffle gave us a rare opportunity to write tossed salad in a headline, it may be cause for concern. That doesn’t sound like the behavior of a healthy, balanced woman to us. It ties into a bit of character development that Miranda has undergone in recent years. Remember back when Blake was the drinker and troublemaker and Miranda was his long-suffering wife? Okay, we’re exaggerating, but only a little bit. These days, she seems to be the one making outrageous tabloid headlines, while Blake has settled down with Gwen. Also, Miranda came right out and admitted that she’s a bit of a homewrecker after hooking up with the still-married Evan Felker. Is the downfall of the Felker marriage her fault? Of course not. Not unless she kidnapped him. But openly discussing her role in it sounds like an unwise career move. View Slideshow: 24 Celebrity Weddings That No One Saw Coming
