Earlier today, we reported on one of the stranger Teen Mom social media controversies in recent memory. It all began when Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra began discussing their desire to have a third child on Twitter. It’s anyone’s guess as to why a married couple would need to have such a conversation on social media rather than, ya know, face-to-face, but while the parental figures of the Teen Mom franchise love ’em some free publicity, we doubt the Baltierras expected this : Things started out innocently enough, with Catelynn tweeting: “Wahhh I’m ready for another baby @TylerBaltierra.” Tyler (or T-Balz, as we like to call him) wrote back, “Me too babe.” That’s when Catelynn made the (arguably unfortunate) decision to tweet the following photo: She captioned the image: “Proud to announce a new baby Baltierra @tylerbaltierramtv.” Clearly it was a joke, but if you’ve looked at a calendar recently, you know that it’s 2017, and 2017 is the year in which everyone gets pissed off about everything. A number of fans didn’t think the joke was funny for a number of reasons. Some thought Lowell was really pregnant and … felt let down, we guess? Others thought the joke was insensitive to those who struggled with infertility. Still others blamed Tyler and Catelynn for that Kendall Jenner Pepsi commercial . Okay, we’re joking about that last part, but in all seriousness, a good number of fans were legitimately outraged, and Tyler responded by basically informing them that he’d run out of f–ks to give long, long ago: “Apparently the world can’t take jokes anymore…don’t worry #TeenMomOG will be back on the air soon so we can disappoint you some more,” Tyler tweeted. “I actually love all of those critics. The fake profile pics & repetitive insults based on the lack of creativity…they just crack me up.” Asked if he could see how some might have thought the joke was insensitive, Tyler responded: “Yes, I’m the lowest piece of s–t, insensitive, entitled, asshole & a sorry excuse of a human being & I shouldn’t be allowed to reproduce.” Man, when that guy does sarcasm, he does sarcasm . For her part, Catelynn responded in a very different and much, much more confusing way: “Why don’t u just go back to ur real family?” she tweeted. “Not like we have mattered anyways.. to u it’s just the thought that mattered” Uh … we really have no idea as to what that might mean. We’re thinking Catelynn meant to subtweet someone, but instead she just tossed that bad boy out there with no context. Of course, we think it’s safe to say she wasn’t in a great mood when she wrote it, so you can be sure it will lead to more rumors about Catelynn and Tyler getting divorced . This has been Teen Mom Twitter Theater. Tune in the next time something pops off, which should be in 20 minutes or so.
Alec Baldwin has a new memoir out, and like most things the sometimes-beloved actor is involved with, the release has not been without its share of controversy. Yes, Baldwin opens up on his feud with Trump . (He even admits they have some things in common!) And yes, he apologizes for being verbally abusive to Ireland Baldwin when she was a child (still hates her mom, though). But Baldwin likely penned those parts of his memoir knowing they would spark some conversations that would hopefully lead to a boost in sales. What he probably didn’t anticipate, however, is the brewing scandal surrounding the portion of the book that concerns a racy scene he shot with Nikki Reed in 2006 … when the actress was just 16 years old. Writing about his experiences shooting the indie film Mini’s First Time, Baldwin had this to say: “I was 47, and it never occurred to me to ask how old Nikki Reed was.” “When I found out, just as we finished, that she was 17, I flipped out on the producers, who had told me something different.” Now, Dana Brunetti, a producer on the film, is claiming Baldwin is doubly full of it: Brunetti says not only was Reed only 16 (not 17, as Baldwin claims), but that Baldwin was fully informed of her age before the scene was shot. “My first indie film was Mini’s starring @AlecBaldwin who knew @NikkiReed_I_Am was 16 (not 17) and he didn’t mind,” Brunetti tweeted last night. “In fact (Reed) was one of four actresses (Baldwin) had approved and her being the only one of those four repped by his own agency CAA.” Brunetti went into greater detail in an interview with The Hollywood Reporte r today, even going so far as to hit Baldwin with a Trump-related burn: “It’s a lie,” Brunetti tells the magazine. “I read it and was like, ‘What the f—. Of course he totally knew how old she was.” Brunetti added: “He knew before we even cast the movie. I think he’s been method acting Trump too much and he doesn’t know the difference between fake news anymore.” Fellow producer Ethan Astrowski backed up Brunetti’s version of events, stating: “What Alec says happened is not accurate. I completely corroborate that. We were on set every day.” The scene was perfectly legal due to the fact that Reed remained at least partially clothed, but lying about it is still not a good luck for Baldwin. And he was having such a great, relatively scandal-free year, too! Oh, well. There’s always 2018!
It really, truly, completely, 100% may be over for Kylie Jenner and Tyga. We know: you’ve heard this before. Heck, you heard confirmation of Kylie and Tyga’s break-up mere hours ago on The Hollywood Gossip. So, what makes this latest rumor worth repeating? Why does it seem so certain that the rapper and the professional Instagram model have split for good this time around? Because they are no longer living together, an insider tells Us Weekly. “Tyga moved out,” a source tells the tabloid in its latest issue, although this same anonymous mole is quick to somehow add: “They’re not broken up. They’re just not spending as much time together.” LOL. And may we also add: LOLOLOLOL! It is true that couples who share a residence sometimes think the relationship has grown too suffocating and try to live apart while remaining committed to each other. But it’s also true that this romance ends up lasting exactly zero percent of the time. So, assuming Kylie and Tyga have split… or are about to split… or are simply having major issues these days, what is at the root of their discord? Surprisingly to some, the Us Weekly source cites Keeping Up with the Kardashians as the basis for tension between Kylie and her older man. “Tyga feels he’s been belittled on the show,” the magazine writes. Interesting, right? Maybe the twosome are just waiting for Keeping Up with the Kardashians to get canceled in the near future before they resume their full courtship. Ratings have been plunging for Season 13, despite the series having a major topic to focus on in Kim Kardashian’s Paris robbery. Might the public finally be sick and tired of this family in general? It’s taken long enough, right? Still, you never know when it comes to Jenner and Tyga. “Tyga does really make Kylie happy, and when they break up it makes Kylie super sad,” the insider tells Us Weekly. “He’s her first big love and they still speak every day.” In a separate interview earlier this month, a different friend acknowledged that trouble exists in this famous paradise. But he or she didn’t think it meant much in the big picture for these stars. “They tend to take little breaks all the time and then get back together,” the pal explained. View Slideshow: Tyga: 15 Times He Proved He Was a GIANT Dirtbag Prior to this cooling off period, Kylie and Tyga took a break in May of 2016, just days before the Met Gala. Tyga told TMZ at the time: “We’re both just focused on our lives, our individual lives, right now. Sometimes things don’t work out, but I love her.” The celebrities reunited the following month (after Tyga stuck it to Demi Rose Mawby ) and the “Rack City” rapper went on to present Jenner with a $200,000 Maybach for her August birthday last year. For the time being, however, Tyga is living at his Hollywood Hills home, 24 miles east of his girlfriend’s place, where he shacked up for the past several months. “She will keep an eye on him,” says the Jenner insider. “She doesn’t trust him, but can’t let go.” Sounds like a recipe for happily ever after, doesn’t it?
Hakeem Lyon is not the luckiest member of the Lyon clan. That was addressed on Empire Season 3 Episode 12 when his birthday celebrations became a cause for concern for the people closest to him. Meanwhile, Jamal continued to get closer to Philip, but did that mean hurting D-Major in the process? When the episode got underway, Hakeem was partying the night away in celebration for his birthday. He floated the idea of a live stream of the events, but Andre was very much against it. However, it was quickly revealed he and Lucious were just trying to make Hakeem think they could not make the birthday party. Lucious also revealed he was not getting his son an expensive car he wanted. We then switched gears to Jamal waking up after the night before with Philip. On his cell phone, D-Major came out in a live stream, but things took a crazy turn when Jamal’s ex arrived at his apartment. View Slideshow: 19 Shows To Look Forward To In 2017 He found Philip rushing to get dressed, and Jamal told him to leave. D-Major was having none of it and said he came out for Jamal. This presented Jamal with some decisions as he wondered which man was best for him. After some wise words from Cookie, Jamal had D-Major kicked out of Empire. This also paved the way for Philip to punch Major, but Jamal was less than impressed and said Major was going through tough time. Surprisingly, Philip did not run off and ditch Jamal for his blatant favoritism over his ex-boyfriend. At Hakeem’s birthday party, the venue was not impressed when they learned none of the family members would be attending and refused to pay Hakeem a fee. The youngest Lyon then took the party to the Empire bar. That’s when two thugs appeared and helped Hakeem. He got his fee and gave the men watches. Things turned dangerous when Tiana appeared with some friends. The thugs started fighting with everyone, and the party was shut down. Tiana’s friend was injured, and she was upset that Hakeem did not ask about her. Andre then gave Hakeem a verbal beat down and shut the live stream down, telling his brother he was done at Empire. Hakeem decided to spend the rest of his birthday with Bella. View Slideshow: 17 Characters Who Ruined Perfectly Good TV Shows Yes, he does remember he has a kid. Lucious was shocked by his son appearing in the dead of night and chatted with him about fatherhood. They bonded, and Hakeem left with Bella. While all of this was going down, Giuliana continued to pursue Andre to get closer to Lucious. At the conclusion of the episode, she got close to Andre before revealing her master plan to a thug. She wanted to get closer to Lucious to take everything from him. Yes, we have another money grabber, you guys! In addition, Anika returned to town, and Leah offered to murder her. We’re not even kidding about that last part. This show is just crazy. Anika decided to get close to Tariq so the case could be dropped. What did you think of the drama?

It would not be a Real Housewives of New York City premiere without a good old cheating claim to get the drama started. On The Real Housewives of New York City Season 9 Episode 1 , LuAnn De Lesseps was shocked to hear about a new cheating claim about her fiancé, Tom D’Agostino. When the episode got underway, we picked up with Bethenny Frankel who opened up about her divorce from Jason Hoppy. Plot twist: It was finally over! Bethenny revealed she got her apartment sold within 24 hours at the price she wanted for it. That’s practically unheard of but pretty great for Bethenny. We then switched gears to LuAnn, who was still excited about her wedding. If you watch The Real Housewives of New York City online , you will remember the string of cheating allegations against Tom. She opened up to her good friend Dorinda Medley about the wedding during a stroll in Central Park. She also dropped the bomb that she only wanted positive energy at the event. That probably ruled out the likes of Bethenny and Sonja attending. “The group is fractured,” Dorinda acknowledged to the camera. “I hope that as a group, we can get past it, but when it comes to Sonja, I just don’t know.” Dorinda revealed that Sonja had been trashing her at any given opportunity. “It’s not going to end well if she keeps it up,” Dorinda claimed. LuAnn dropped the bomb that Ramona Singer had called Tom’s ex-girlfriend in the middle of the night to try to get dirt on him. That’s desperation right there. View Slideshow: Ramona Singer And Her Eyes: 13 Ramotional Moments Later, Dorinda stopped by Carole’s apartment, and they got talking about the drama from the previous season. “I feel bad that we really got off-track,” Dorinda said. “It hurt my feelings.” The ladies then decided to keep things “light and bright.” The best part of the season premiere was when Ramona and LuAnn met for lunch to hash out their issues. “I heard it through the grapevine through friends that you’ve been stirring things up and being negative about Tom and I,” Luann said. “Why would you go and call people that Tom knows and try to find out stuff about him and his past?” Ramona blatantly lied, saying she was not seeking the information and that people were offering it up to her. She claimed it did not matter because LuAnn wanted to be kept in the dark about the past. Ramona then revealed that Tom was on a date with one of his ex-girlfriends. LuAnn seemed in denial and thought this other woman was trying to ruin her nuptials. View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast? “Why would she want to lie?” Ramona asked. LuAnn tried to reasons with Ramona, but Ramona was too concerned about LuAnn’s future to care. “I know what I have,” Luann barked. “I am strong as a woman.” “You should advise your husband-to-be that it’s a very small city,” Ramona warned. “It’s a very small city. Tell him to reel it in.” LuAnn then urged Ramona to be happy for her. “I toast to your marriage, and I hope you don’t fall on your face with him,” Ramona said. “I’m afraid he’s going to hurt you.” Something tells us there’s a lot of drama on the way for these two!

Bill O’Reilly Accused Of Being Womanizer, Fox Has Spent $13 Mill Settling Lawsuits Over Misconduct Can’t say we’re surprised. Bill HO’Reilly has always struck us as a super creep, and over the weekend the NY Times reported as much, revealing his employer Fox News has paid five women $13 million to settle allegations of sexual harassment and other inappropriate conduct levied against him. Since these women have already accepted settlements, so far it looks like none of them are speaking up — possibly because of gag orders associated with the payouts. BUT — today another former colleague of O’Reilly’s — a woman named Wendy Walsh has made claims she was punished for refusing to go back to the talk show host’s hotel room, the Washington Post just revealed . During a news conference today, lawyer Lisa Bloom spelled out accusations by her client Wendy Walsh, once a regular guest on “The O’Reilly Factor.” Bloom claims O’Reilly told Walsh he’d recommend her for a paid contributor role on Fox. According to Walsh, she and O’Reilly had dinner in 2013 in L.A., but after she declined an invitation to join him in his hotel room, his attitude changed and she was dropped from the show soon after. Walsh says she’s speaking out now because she was told by a NY Times reporter that many of O’Reilly’s alleged victims have gag orders. “Nobody can silence me because my voice is not for sale,” Walsh said. “Nobody can buy my voice.” After the release of the NY Times report this weekend, O’Reilly said he’s “put to rest any controversies” to keep his kids from being embarrassed. In other words, he’s claiming that he’s just been trying to avoid smear campaigns. Do you believe him? WENN
