Kenya Moore: I’m Pregnant! Shhhh!

Guess who’s pregnant! Kenya Moore’s marriage has been controversial for her career in more ways than one. And recently, it’s looked like Kenya and Marc Daly might be headed for divorce . But the Real Housewives of Atlanta star is reportedly pregnant! That welcome blessing might solve at least one of her problems. Okay, so back in June (which feels like a few weeks ago but also like a decade ago, because 2017 is a nightmare that exists outside of normal time), we told you that  Kenya Moore got married to Marc Daly . This was a bigger deal than usual … because the wedding was secret. Not just from the public, but from producers of The Real Housewives of Atlanta . There was a very real chance that Kenya Moore could get fired for her secret wedding , because when you sign on to do a reality series about your life, producers don’t expect you to not only hide your wedding, but the fact that you’re planning to get married at all. To compound the problem, Marc Daly didn’t want to appear on The Real Housewives of Atlanta . We don’t just mean his wedding — he, himself, did not want to appear on it. He believes that the series does not portray black men in a positive manner (he’s definitely not alone in that) and wants to take no part in it. And that’s a problem for Kenya, because it’s a problem for producers. See, to be on a reality series, it takes a little more than feuding with Kim Zolciak and Brielle Biermann . You need an actual storyline. And that means your husband being on camera. Now, it’s turned out that Kenya’s found a storyline — Marc’s physical absence. He spends a lot of time in New York for business, but that is a stressful factor in his newlywed life with Kenya. It does, however, give Kenya something to talk about on camera. But now she has something else that’s much more positive to discuss: Industry on Blast reports that Kenya Moore is pregnant . Their report states that the 46-year-old and her husband are happy about the news, but that she’s waiting to announce it until she reaches a point at which she’s sure that her pregnancy can continue to term. (Miscarriages early into a pregnancy aren’t uncommon, and no one wants to make the joyful announcement and then have to follow it up) Reportedly, Kenya Moore received IVF treatments in Barbados over a period of a few weeks in order to conceive — many couples seek IVF, but particularly those who are concerned that age may be a factor. Congratulations are in order for this RHOA couple! And while a pregnancy can’t fix a marriage that’s on the rocks, it can solve Kenya’s other problem: If she’s pregnant, maybe Kenya Moore will no longer be pressured to prioritize her career over her husband . (Or vice versa) Because, honestly, who cares about somebody’s marriage when there’s an adorable baby on the way? There’s pregnancy storylines, childbirth storylines, and then newborn baby storylines! And remember how Kenya’s future on the series was uncertain? We were just talking earlier today about how Meghan King Edmonds avoided getting fired from The Real Housewives of Orange County by getting pregnant. (As it happens, she also used IVF) So this is good news all-around. We wish Kenya Moore all of the best of luck with her pregnancy! View Slideshow: 27 Scandals That Rocked Reality TV

Kate Gosselin: Leah Has No Braces AND No Collin! Hooray!

Just because Kate Gosselin had her children celebrate without Collin on Collin’s birthday doesn’t mean that she doesn’t know how to celebrate milestones for her other children. This time, it’s Leah Gosselin who’s being celebrated, as she finally got her braces off! And while the photos are cute, reactions in the form of Instagram comments were all over the place. It seems that Collin Gosselin is still missing , off at some dubious institution where Kate decided that he belonged. But Kate does have other children who, in an indictment of our society’s inability to look after the well-being of children, remain in Kate Gosselin’s custody. There are, however, some positive moments, even in that household. And there are things to celebrate. In the photo below, Leah Gosselin — who, like her fellow sextuplets, turned 13 over the summer — has finally gotten her braces off. And she’s celebrating with an array of tasty desserts … among other snacks. See how happy she looks! Leah’s smile is bright and celebratory! But still not quite as happy as her smile will be when she one day escapes from her mother and never looks back. As you can see, her teeth are no longer imprisoned by a sharp metal tooth-corset, which, having had braces when I was about her age, is how I would describe braces. You can’t see her food choices too well in this photo, so Kate, in either a rare moment of kindness or perhaps a desperate attempt to show that she can be “nice” and “fun” sometimes, really, she promises, shared another photo. In it, we see cake, a number of candies, and popcorn … which makes us think that Kate must have actually enforced the orthodontist’s rules about what to not eat with braces. (When I had braces, I avoided only popcorn. Gum actually helped me adjust to having the braces, and I never had any problem with gum or anything else) But here are the treats that Leah got to enjoy: With both photos, Kate Gosselin included the caption: “Somebody got their braces off today! [three grinning-face emojis] #CongratsLeah #BracesOffParty #GosselinTradition #BracesOnBracesOffConstantHere” We’ll say this much about Kate Gosselin — having a braces-off celebration for your kids is a great idea. That might be the only parenting advice that we’d ever take from her. Various followers chimed in with well wishes: “Hahaha … another constant is there’s always something to celebrate … no wonder everybody seems to be so happy …” Instagram comments don’t  really need that many ellipses … but okay. “That is so awesome! Kate, you’re always finding unique ways to make your kids feel special and I LOVE that! [red heart emoji]” We weren’t the only ones who are still preoccupied by the fact that Kate decided to disappear her own child and keep him isolated from his siblings. One commenter wrote: “Collin doesn’t get braces.” Point of fact, we don’t know that Collin does or does not have braces. But we don’t know because, well, he’s wherever Kate sent him off to. Another commenter replied: “Yeah, that poor child.” Our only comfort is that Collin, though isolated from his siblings, is at least away from Kate. When there’s nothing else that you can do, folks, you have to look at the bright side.

Selena Gomez Spills All: Why Did She Take Justin Bieber Back?

Selena Gomez is back together with Justin Bieber. This is not really news to anyone with an Internet connection, considering all the quotes and photos that have been circulating online for weeks now. But here’s the thing: None of those quotes have been uttered by either Selena or Justin themselves. Neither star has confirmed this rekindled romance has actually been… rekindled. UNTIL NOW! Featured on the cover of Billboard (as its Woman of the Year), Gomez opens way up about past relationships and friendships, along with young Mr. Bieber himself. Getting back together with the singer “comes back to the idea of me remaining full,” she explained. “I think a true representation of love is beyond just yourself,” Gomez added, getting all deep and profound. “It’s me going to get coffee earlier this morning and talking with a woman who was celebrating her birthday and going to Disneyland for the first time. I told her about my favorite things there, and she got excited, and then I got excited because she was excited. “The littlest things are impactful.” Selena acknowledges her up and down relationship with Bieber, but says she has come a long way. This isn’t some wild wild, immature whim, deciding to let Bieber back into her pants. She has made an adullt decision, she says. “I’m 25. I’m not 18, or 19, or 20. I cherish people who have really impacted my life. “So maybe before, it could have been forcing something that wasn’t right. But that doesn’t mean caring for someone ever goes away.” Gomez and The Weeknd broke up in late October, following several months of dating. Talk of her and Justin being an item heated up immediately, with insiders saying Bieber came to a realization about his ex after she underwent a kidney transplant and nearly died. So things must be very bitter between her and The Weeknd, right? If Selena really did dump the artist and then move right on to Bieber? Not at all, Selena swears. “Something that I’m really proud of is that there’s such a true friendship [between us]. “I truly have never experienced anything like that in my life. “We ended it as best friends, and it was genuinely about encouraging and caring [for each other], and that was pretty remarkable for me.” This sounds like a huge lie, of course. Who actually has a mutual, amicable break up?!? But Selena insists she has come a long way and that she’s seeing things differently after her health scare. View Slideshow: Selena Gomez Stuns with Appearance, Sparks Lip Sync Controversy at American Music Awards “I’m really proud of where I am right now. I handle things in a healthy way. I can enjoy where I’m at.” Gomez also says she has taken far more control of her career: “I love being able to say ‘no.’ I like being a part of the world. “People are so terrified of other people. I see it in my generation a lot. There’s so much anxiety and angst, and the pressure just keeps getting worse. “[But] I’m proudest of not becoming jaded. I have every reason to be like, ‘Fc-k all of you.’ “And I don’t. I’m going to have the bad days where I don’t want to leave my bedroom – but I’m ready for them.” And on those other days? She can go over to Bieber’s bedroom. It’s a pretty great set up.

Khloe Kardashian: Look at My Shiny Grill!

While  Kim Kardashian may be hitting up Instagram to show off her naked and sparkly body , her sister Khloe Kardashian is showing off her beautiful curves.  In a series of snaps uploaded to Instagram yesterday, the pregnant Keeping Up with the Kardashians star showed off a variety of different looks.  Yes, as always, she looked stunning.  The most striking of which showed the 33-year-old looking as fierce as ever with a shiny grill, wearing a light blue sports bra. Her nails were also visually stunning.  They were long, and pink, and could probably cut someone. The look was finished with Khloe’s sunkissed skin, longer than usual earrings and blonde locks for good measure.  “Mean Mug,” she captioned sultry image. Yes, Khloe, even as the mean girl, you are still one of the most fashionable around.  Another snap from the photo shoot found the star crossing her arms and pouting for the flashing lights. It also showed off her pink nails in more detail.  She accompanied the above with an inspiring quote.  “I choose to start each day with a grateful heart and a happy state of mind,” it reads.  The final snap of the look showed the star pouting with her finger on her lips as though she is thinking about something she likes, and the caption seemed to confirm that.  “Hummmmmm… ice cream or fro yo?” it reads. “Yummm.”   The Revenge Body star’s pregnancy was  revealed back in September by Us Weekly, but Khloe has yet to address the news publicly.  Being in the spotlight for so long, Khloe likely knows that keeping fans on their toes is the best way to stay relevant. Hell, she and her family have been in the spotlight for years now.  Khloe’s relationship with Tristan Thompson was first hinted at as far back as August 2016, but it was made official in September of that year when they attended mutual pal, Flo Rida’s birthday party.  There have been countless snaps of the pair together, and we think it’s fair to say they look loved up. Khloe has been unlucky in love in the past, so it’s great she’s found someone who appears to be a keeper.  What do you think about Khloe’s confident and hot new look? Hit the comments below!

Wendy Pepper Dies; Former Project Runway Contestant Was 53

Wendy Pepper, a memorable contestant who competed on the very first season of Project Runway, has passed away. She was 53 years old. According to The Washington Post, the reality star – whose real name was  Anne Eustis Pepper Stewart – died peacefully on Sunday surrounded by her family members and loved ones. The cause of her death was not revealed in the newspaper’s obituary. But here is what a portion of the memorial article said: A finalist on season one of Project Runway, Wendy designed and hand-sewed exceptionally beautiful clothes for children and adults. She was a chef, a writer, and a life-long entrepreneur. Her wit and humor were unmatched, as was her generosity of spirit. Wendy is survived by her parents, Anne Livingston Emmet of Washington and Charles Willing Pepper of Palm Beach, FL; her loving daughter, Finley M. Stewart, of Middleburg, VA; her brothers Wing Pepper, Stacy Lloyd and Thomas Lloyd; her sister, Edith Pepper Goltra; and many adoring nieces and nephews. Pepper advanced to the finals at Fashion Week and ultimately came in third on the opening Project Runway season. While on the program, she won numerous challenges, including the change to have one of her designs sold at Banana Republic and the opportunity to design Nancy O’Dell’s Grammy dress. She was a fan favorite for sure. Along with the inaugural run of Project Runway, Pepper also made an appearance during the second season of Project Runway All Stars, which aired in 2012 and 2013. Moreover, she appeared on a pair of other Bravo reality shows: Celebrity Poker Showdown and Battle of the Network Reality Stars. The late chef and designer was born in Dayton, Ohio. She graduated from Potomac School, the Madeira School, and the University of Washington.  Said Pepper in a Project Runway All Star video many years ago: “I realized I was a designer when I was living in Nepal. “Dyeing some yarn, I suddenly turned to these people that I was living with and I started to drape the yarn. Oh my gosh, this is so much fun, I am creating this whole sort of experience with these women. For me, fashion is communication…That’s when I knew this was my life’s work.” She also said Project Runway taught her that “if you really want to succeed, you’ve gotta be willing to throw yourself into the arena.” Pepper will be laid to rest at a Georgetown church on December 1. May she rest in peace. View Slideshow: 27 Reality Stars Who Died Way Too Young

Bye, Non-Factors! Tami Roman Will NOT Be Coming Back To Basketball Wives Next Season

Tami Roman To Leave Basketball Wives Tami Roman is officially moving on from the Basketball Wives Franchise. According to The Blaze , despite receiving a handsome offer from Vh1 to return for the show’s 7th season, Tami has reportedly decided to move on to other opportunities instead of boxing and tossing glasses of water on the other sports exes on the show. Besides, she hasn’t been tied to a basketball player since her divorce from Kenny Anderson in 2001. Tami’s “Bonnet Chronicles” IG clips has garnered big popularity and the account a major following, and offers have apparently been coming in to turn her comedy sketches and witty advice into a full-on series, so Tami’s a bit more interested in that. Well, we can’t blame her for moving on! Leave the grappling with coo-coo Jackie Christie and Evelyn to someone else for a change. Will you miss Tami on the show? Getty/WENN

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 8 Episode 6 Recap: Growing Up Jersey

Bravo’s successful Real Housewives franchise has always aimed to bring high drama to viewers, but the drama is all based on whether the cast members want to bring it.  Unfortunately, the current housewives on The Real Housewives of New Jersey are not working. On The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 8 Episode 6 , Teresa thought she was getting a break from the drama.  Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 8 Episode 6 Online However, her vacation was ruined by her daughters continuing to whine at her every single time she spoke to them. It was painful to watch, but it certainly made me think those kids are sick of having cameras around them. They have been on the show for the entire series, and the recent bad press about their parents has to have had some sort of effect on them.  The producers are trying to implement this whole storyline about Teresa letting the children get away with everything, but it seems more like that’s just been thrown in to explain their very blatant hatred of the cameras.  It must be difficult for Teresa because she was gone from their lives for a considerable amount of time, but the kids either need to be left out of the show or be told they need to participate if they are in front of the camera.  Teresa’s storyline this week consisted of her trying to get through to her children while trying to have a little fun herself and you could tell she was miserable.  What didn’t help was everyone at the resort in Puerto Rico staring into the camera. Maybe Teresa’s storyline has just run its course, and it’s time to follow some new people.  Back in New Jersey, Siggy went to get pellets to get her hormone levels back on track because she admitted she had something wrong with her.  Hey, it’s the first step to recovery, so everyone should be giving her the thumbs up. Her mood has been all over the place, and it’s a little bit unethical to have her in front of the reality tv cameras in that manner.  Margaret decided it was time to nip all the feuding in the bud and called Dolores to meet her for lunch. It started off very awkward, and it was clear Dolores wanted to stick up for Siggy.  That’s what friends do, and Dolores is coming across as the most loyal woman on this show nowadays. Margaret is a real hoot. She has eyelashes on her mini cooper, so she must be a great person.  For some reason, Margaret opened up about raising her ex-husband’s children for several years before they fell out with her for leaving their father.  It seemed forced, but Dolores reacted to the waterworks. The two women found some common ground, and it helped Dolores understand what Margaret was about.  Dolores took the news to Siggy during a double date with Frank and Michael. Initially, Siggy was against being friends with Margaret, but Dolores continued to push the fact that she thought the woman was misunderstood.  Siggy finally decided to give Margaret another chance, but it’s difficult to expect the two women to do anything other than fight until the bitter end.  This was hands down the worst episode of the series. There were no big talking points. It was all filler to show off Teresa on her all expenses paid family vacation to Puerto Rico.  View Slideshow: 17 Stars Who Really Love the Real Housewives Danielle was not even part of the episode. Her voice was in it thanks to a phone call with Teresa, but isn’t this woman supposed to be, like, causing all the drama to keep us tuning in? Sigh. What did you think of this episode?
