Aaron Carter: Beat Up By New Kids on the Block Fans!

Aaron Carter claims he received a beatdown from four hardcore New Kids on the Block fans while out to dinner in Boston this weekend … seriously. It wasn’t a coincidence, either. This was full-on boy band turf war style justice. Carter was leaving dinner in the city, he says, when a man yelled out, “I heard you’re doing a show here tomorrow. This is the town of the New Kids.” Aaron claims that three other guys then jumped out of a gold Chevy Malibu and started roughing him up, including a pretty serious blow to the face. The singer claims he landed a few punches too before the crew split. “I think my knuckles might be broken, but that’s what they get,” he said. “People think I’m a pretty little white boy but no way. I think I won. I’m still standing.” Aaron says he did not file a police report because that’s just “girlie.” The question … Which of these three things is most surprising: New Kids on the Block fans being territorial and violent? Aaron Carter calling something or someone “girlie”? Aaron Carter still performing, in general?

Rihanna Instagrams HUGE Joints, Wishes U.S. Would #LegalizeIt

Anybody need a toke? Rihanna has enough to go around. For an entire nightclub worth of people, it would appear. The marijuana-loving singer took to Instagram on Saturday in Amsterdam (doesn’t it figure), where this sort of thing is not only legal, but encouraged: We see countless Rihanna photos featuring her smoking as it is, so imagine how much fun she’ll have in a place where she doesn’t have to rein it in? She captioned one of them “#LegalizeIt” … then upped the THC-filled ante by posing for a few pics with MASSIVE blunts and a lighter in each hand. The U.S. has not #legalizedit across the board, but Colorado and Washington have, and you can get a medicinal card in California like it’s no thing. Or so we’ve heard. Yeah, that’s it. Again, this isn’t Ri-Ri’s first declaration of her love for the herb. Nor will it be the last. But outside of the 20th day of April, it may be the most egregious. This sure beats traditional therapy … What do you think: Legalize it?   Yes No Maybe View Poll » Is legalization of marijuana a good idea?

Nice to see that Kim has taken to motherhood like a newborn baby to a … you know. Sorry ‘Ye. Looks like they’re occupied for awhile there, man. Speaking of the baby daddy, sources say that despite all the rumors of Kanye ditching them , “no one has ever seen him like this” and he’s a natural dad.

Lil Snupe Death: Suspect Sought in Rapper’s Murder

The tragic death of Lil Snupe was not an accident, police believe. Officials in Louisiana say they think a 36-year-old man shot and killed the 18-year-old rapper and Meek Mill protege during an argument earlier this week. The dispute may have come down to video games, amazingly. Police have issued a warrant for Tony Holden, a convicted felon who should be considered armed and dangerous, but have not been able to locate him. Police confirmed Lil Snupe dead early Thursday after he was shot twice in the chest. Snupe (real name Addarren Ross) was just signed to Mill’s label.

Paris Jackson to Seek Long-Term Mental Health Treatment

A source close to Paris Jackson’s family says that the troubled teenager may be headed to a longer-term treatment center out of state soon. Paris will stay “at least another week” at UCLA Medical Center in L.A. and then she’ll be going to a facility for additional care,” the source says . The move comes after a great deal of discussion within the family of Michael Jackson’s daughter about how best to care for Paris going forward. The teen, who has a recent history of mental health issues that include cutting, was hospitalized June 5 for taking pills and slicing herself with a knife . “This has just been so hard for Mrs. Jackson,” says the source of grandmother Katherine Jackson, who has legal co-guardianship of Paris. “She is so [worried about Paris Jackson ] and keeps saying she’s never had any experience of how to deal with someone in this situation.” The decision to move Paris to a longer-term treatment center was made by Katherine, Paris’ biological mother Debbie Rowe, and doctors. It is in part based on Katherine and Debbie’s joint fears that Paris had “fallen in with the wrong crowd” in Los Angeles, says the source. The facility will include both school and therapy, at a location where the entire family believes she will have sufficient time and space to heal. Get well soon, Paris. Paris remained in the hospital on June 16, when her siblings Prince, 16, and Blanket, 11, attended the wedding of their cousin Taj Jackson . “They were having a blast and dancing,” says the source. “But Katherine seemed sad and thoughtful. Her mind is very much on Paris.”

Ana Trujillo, Houston News Anchor, Kills Boyfriend With Stiletto Heel

Ana Trujillo, a Houston TV host, has been charged with murdering her boyfriend by striking him more than 10 times in the face, head and neck with her stiletto heel. She claims she acted in self-defense. Ana Trujillo, 44, was in a relationship with the late Alf Stefan Andersson, 59, a top researcher in women’s health issues at the University of Houston. The background is very much unclear. “We only have a dead man and a woman who confessed to doing it,” says Harris County, Texas, District Attorney spokeswoman, Sara Marie Kinney. Trujillo hosted community access shows under the name Ana Fox. Lott J. Brooks, Trujillo’s attorney and former employer, says to withhold judgment. Trujillo, he believes, suffered from battered women’s syndrome, and is a non-confrontational person who would not have instigated the fight. “It doesn’t seem like something she would’ve done without provocation, without some sort of triggering mechanism,” Brooks tells People . He adds, however, that he is still learning about the case and he doesn’t specifically know what Andersson may have done to Trujillo before she struck. On the night of June 9, she and Andersson drank tequila at Bodega’s Taco Shop and he got angry over another man who offered to buy Trujillo a drink. They then went to his 18th-floor condominium at around 2 a.m. and he got angry over her plans to visit her daughter from a previous relationship. Trujillo called 911, led officers to the body and told them Andersson “was attacking her and grabbed her hair and neck,” according to a DA spokeswoman. But officers observed no injuries on Trujillo. Andersson, however, suffered “at least 10 very serious puncture wounds to the back of the skull, and to the head and neck,” says Kinney, all inflicted by a stiletto. Investigators are trying to determine if Trujillo stomped Andersson with the shoe or held it and struck him as she claims. Officials are unaware what kind of stiletto was used. The shoe is in evidence and can’t be examined by a prosecutor until after Trujillo enters a plea. Trujillo is being held on $100,000 bail.

Helena Bonham Carter Joins Cinderella as Fairy Godmother

We’ve been wondering what kind of tone Kenneth Branagh’s live-action  Cinderella  would take. With the announcement that Helena Bonham Carter has joined the cast, it’s looking like it will be a fantastical epic in the vein of Bonham Carter’s other fairy tale movie,  Alice in Wonderland . Of course Bonham Carter can also play gritty, so I guess we’ll have to wait and see. Bonham Carter will play the Fairy Godmother , alongside Lilly James as Cinderella and Cate Blanchett as the Evil Stepmother. Richard Madden plays Prince Charming, with Holliday Granger and Sophia McShera in talks for the Evil Stepsisters. Cinderella is expected to begin filming this fall.

Hair Stockings As Rape Deterrents: Actually a Thing That Exists in China!

It seems they really  do make everything in China. And by everything we mean “hair stockings.” Which aren’t actually stockings  for your hair as the name implies.  Oh no. No, hair stockings are much, much more…European. See? Who needs pepper spray when women could just wear hair stockings to ward off would-be attackers ?  shudder. The latest in anti-rape wear, the hosiery is billed as “super sexy, summertime anti-pervert full-leg-of-hair stockings essential for all young girls going out” by Sina Weibo user @HappyZhangJiang. Well, sure, if by “super sexy” the women wearing these plan to attract Bigfoot at the bar. And hosiery? In the summertime? Nope.  So, are these a joke or are they serious? A little of both? We’re not sure. Rape is often about power and not desire or attraction, so will a rapist really care about a woman who has the legs of an incredibly hairy man? Maybe. But probably not. And the idea that a woman should have to make herself appear  less attractive to ward off would-be rapists is part of the culture of victim blaming, so surely that’s not the statement these hair stockings are trying to make. Hopefully, these are meant as one seriously bizarre Asian fashion trend. And like any bad trend, these will probably die hard. Probably. We hope. Fingers crossed that hair stockings don’t end up on the runways at the next Fashion Week, amiright? Not even Gucci could make these work.

Justin Bieber: Shirtless, Probably Baked in Inaugural Instagram Video

So, yeah, Instagram is offering video now. Awesome! Justin Bieber is shirtless in his first effort. Awesome? Justin Bieber Instagram Video Justin Bieber Shirtless Looking and sounding baked out of his mind, the Biebs took to the social media platform today to post literally the first video ever from his account. The 19-year-old star captioned the unforgettable clip “Hahaha.” “So crazy news, guys, there’s video on Instagram!” a shirtless Justin Bieber says, appearing to lose focus before the clip ends with absolutely no fanfare. Given how stoned he appears, that’s likely all he could muster. With Selena Gomez and Ed Sheeran hitting it, a guy has to self-medicate somehow … but seriously, JB. May want to lay off the weed a bit, bud.
