Maci Bookout and Ryan Edwards are actually getting along pretty well these days. Unlike many other relationships between exes on Teen Mom, the former couple are maintaining what we’d like to call a semi-healthy relationship. Heck, Bookout recently admitted that Ryan’s perfect girl would be… well… HER . But the same definitely cannot be said about Ryan Edwards and his parents. Those who watch Teen Mom OG online or on television will see what we mean in just a few days. In the following sneak peek, we see Ryan engaged in an epic argument with his father, only to eventually be given the boot from their home. This explosive clip actually features an MTV producer named Jaala, who sits down with Ryan’s dad, Larry, and his mom, Jen, to talk about their decision to kick their son to the curb after months of clashing over various issues. And Larry doesn’t seem too disturbed by the development. “Good riddance,” he says. “It was a long time coming.” Pressed to expound on the catalyst for his resolve to send his own packing, the exasperated dad responds: “It’s just Ryan. I’m over his lies. I’m over his laziness, selfishness. I’m done with it.” Well, okay then. Don’t sugarcoat anything, Dad. Tell us how you really feel. While Larry continues to explain his reasons for cutting ties with Ryan, Deb appears to be holding back tears. It’s all too much for a mother to handle. She then says that Ryan is staying at her parents’ home, which she and her siblings own together and which they are planning to sell. But Larry has something scathing to say about this as well. “You better sell it to him for what you were gonna sell it for, too,” he warns. “You better, you better. You better not damn lie about it either ‘cause I’ll find out eventually.” Ryan, of course, is the father to Maci’s seven-year old son, Bentley. At one point in this clip, Jen suggests that Edwards being on his own will be actually good for him. But Larry doesn’t even care. He makes it very clear that he isn’t even trying to assist his offspring. “I’m done with him forever. I don’t want him anywhere around me ever,” Larry admits. “And I never wanna be around him ever ‘cause I’m tired of that bloodsucking leech. I’m over it.” Sheesh, man. That’s your own kid! Harsh. Jen can’t even handle hearing this. She gets up to leave. And Larry just continues his rant: “I’m not crying about it,” he says. “Look, I was number-two from day one. Then I went to number-three after Bentley. “I don’t mind after Bentley, but I’m not playing behind him anymore. Hell, no. If [my wife] don’t like it, she can get her s–t and get out.” Larry concludes his diatribe by referring to Ryan – HIS OWN SON! – as “a f-cking bum” and letting it be known that “[he] wouldn’t piss on him if he were on fire.” Gee, we wonder why Ryan has had so many problems in life? Watch the clip of Larry simply going off on Ryan below: Teen Mom OG Clip: Who Gets the Boot?
Say what you will about the Duggars, but one thing is for sure: they are very, very resilient. It might seem like a lifetime ago, but it’s been less than two years since the news broke that Josh Duggar molested five young girls when he was a teenager — a few of those girls being his little sisters. And it’s barely been a year since we learned that Josh had been paying for an Ashley Madison account , which essentially meant that he’d been paying money to look for people to cheat on his wife with. Josh went to rehab for several months to deal with his many issues, one of which, he revealed in a statement, was a porn addiction. Another fun fact about Josh: multiple porn stars have claimed that Josh paid them for sex , and that he was frighteningly rough with them. But still, even after all that, the Duggars have stood by Josh, and a whole lot of people have stood by the Duggars. Thankfully, it seems like there is a limit to what people will support, as recent reports state that TLC will cancel the show if the family tries to bring Josh on . The Duggars have been quick to defend Josh throughout his many scandals, but when rumors started swirling that they’d invite Josh on the new show, Counting On, to defend himself , the networks promptly shut the idea down. But even though Josh is such a touchy subject, TLC seems to still love them some Duggars. So it makes sense that Amy Duggar, Jim Bob’s niece, just might be getting her own show. Amy just turned 30, and as part of her birthday celebration, she got pampered at a nail salon, where she was photographed with a film crew. The word is that she might be getting her own Duggar spinoff, or at least a special. It makes sense: in September, Amy’s husband, Dillon King, said that they were working on a secret project. “Amy and I are sorry we haven’t posted in a while,” he wrote on Facebook. “We have been very busy the last few months. We have a surprise for everyone, we have been working on some stuff and the outcome I think will be amazing.” Could the surprise be a new show? It certainly looks like it. Really, if TLC has to have another Duggar show, this would be the best way to do it. Amy is a little less controversial than the rest of her family, and she doesn’t live by their very strict rules about relationships. She was the only Duggar to suggest that perhaps Josh’s indiscretions were a little more serious than he was willing to admit. What we’re saying is that TLC has had worse ideas. Way, way worse ideas .

Terence Crutcher, a 40-year old Oklahoma resident, was shot and killed by police officers in Tulsa on Friday. The tragic incident is now creating headlines around the country because dashboard footage has been released to the public that appears to depict an unarmed Crutcher with his arms in the air, just prior to losing his life. We’ve shared the graphic video below: Terence Crutcher: Shot and Killed by Police The encounter took place around 7:40 p.m. on September 16 after four officers responded to reports of an abandoned vehicle on a road. As you can see above, the cops converge on Crutcher quickly, walking him toward the car in question. He’s wearing a white t-shirt and his hands are in the air. He is then Tasered by one officer (later identified as Tyler Turnbough) and fatally shot by Betty Shelby, the Tulsa Police Department has confirmed. The view from both a dashboard camera and a helicopter camera is obstructed in the moments before those actions. But you can see Crutcher fall to the ground at one point. Tulsa Police Chief Chuck Jordan said at a news conference Monday that Crutcher was unarmed; he did not have a weapon in his vehicle, either. Shane Tuell, a police spokesman, said Officer Shelby gave a statement to homicide detectives on Monday morning and is now on paid administrative leave. “I’m going to tell you right now that there was no gun on the suspect or in the suspect’s vehicle,” Jordan told reporters, adding: “I want to assure our community and I want to assure all of you and people across the nation who are going to be looking at this: we will achieve justice.” As part of their own press conference, Crutcher’s family and attorney said they have seen this video and cannot comprehend the justification for shooting their relative. “We ask for facts, we ask for answers, and we clearly got it through the video and we are devastated,” said Crutcher’s twin sister, Tiffany Crutcher. “The entire family is devastated.” In an interview, Officer Shelby’s lawyer, Scott Wood, said his client had believed that Crutcher had a gun. Wood added that Crutcher was acting erratically and refusing to comply with several officer orders, attempting to put his hand in his pocket and reaching inside his car window before he was shot. However, a second video (filmed from a helicopter) has also emerged. Terence Crutcher Helicopter Video: What Happened? It depicts the same scene as the dashboard camera above and you can hear an officer in this video saying of Crutcher: “He’s got his hands up there for her now. This guy is still walking and following commands.” Responds another officer, speculating that the man below is about to be Tasered: “That looks like a bad dude, too.” Incidents of white police officers shooting and killing African-American citizens have been prevalent for several months now. Over the summer, the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile at the hands of police officers made national headlines. Alton Sterling: New Video Emerges of Deadly Louisiana Shooting Both were black and both lost their lives in confrontations with the police, seemingly in needless, irresponsible fashion. Just days after Castile’s death, a sniper opened fire at a Black Lives Matter rally in Dallas, killing five police officers in the process. Philando Castile: Minnesota Man Shot and Killed By Police, Death Caught on Video Tiffany Crutcher, playing on the words of a male on the video shot from the helicopter, said her brother was a good man who had his priorities in order. “That big bad dude was enrolled at Tulsa Community College,” she said. “He just wanted to make us proud. That big bad dude loved God.”
Forget winter. Amber Rose hopes that great scores are coming. Amber Rose Goes All Game of Thrones on Dancing with the Stars In the video above, Rose and partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy go to extreme, impressive lengths on television night, giving Dancing with the Stars viewers a look at a very unique Viennese Waltz. It features Rose dressed as Daenerys Targaryen and Chmerkovskiy as Khal Drogo. The duo is also dancing to the beloved Game of Thrones theme music while spinning all around. Coming off a combined score of just 24 (out of a possible 40 points), Rose really needed this routine to go over well on Monday evening. Did it?!? Len Goodman told the talk show host that she “captured Game of Thrones” and that her dance was “full of imagination.” Julianne Hough said she thought Rose made an improvement from last week to this week. And Bruno Tonioli added, a bit condescendingly: “I could see the effort.” After the judges’ critiques, Tom Bergeron also told Amber that she seemed “more confident,” to which Rose responded that she “took what the judges said” to heart. Still, she only earned 24 points again. Were they robbed? Is Rose right in thinking that Dancing with the Stars is rigged ? Rose is considered an underdog on the competition. She does have a huge fan base on social media, but it’s unclear how many of those people watch Dancing with the Stars. She also used to work as a stripper, so she might have more moves in her repertoire than the average contestant. But those moves might not be appropriate for a family show. Does Rose deserve to stick around for another week? What did you think of her Game of Thrones-inspired routine? And do you agree with the overall odds as we’ve posted them below? Sound off now!

Dancing with the Stars’ second episode of the 23rd season is in the books, and for some couples, there are already reasons for concern. Tension was high and security on high alert as Dancing with the Stars Season 23 Episode 2 got underway on the ABC Television Network. The scores and votes from this episode would be combined with last week to determine who will be the first couple to go home next week. Make sense? Fortunately, any protests were limited to the scoreboard, as Ryan Lochte performed without incident and Laurie Hernandez just dominated. The gymnast revealed in a pre-performance video that she had two dreams in life, to be in Olympics and to be on Dancing With the Stars. Yes, really. The teenager fulfilled that dream by performing a jive to the theme song from Duck Tales (Woo-oo!) even though she’d never seen it. Thirty-somethings everywhere are feeling so over the hill right now. In any case, with Val as Scrooge McDuck, they scored 32 points. Good for first place, BTW. One point behind were Terra Jole and Sasha Farber, with a quickstep to Bewitched that Julianne Hough said was made for the reality star. Bruno Tonioli said it was the most “complete and rounded quickstep” they had seen, so it’s hard to do much better than that for praise. In third place were Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds and Allison Holker, with an Argentine tango set to the X-Files theme song. Very creative! View Slideshow: Dancing with the Stars Season 23: Cast Announced! On the other end of the spectrum? Rick Perry. He just cannot dance. Fortunately for the former Texas Governor, he’s aware of this and in on the joke as far as what a joke it is that he’s even out there. Unfortunately … 22 points. That would be dead last, but with four other couples tied at 24, perhaps he has a chance to out-poll one of them and stick around? If only for a week or two? Amber Rose Goes All Game of Thrones on Dancing with the Stars At 24 were Maureen McCormick and Artem Chigvintsev, Amber Rose and Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Jake T. Austin and Jenna Johnson. Joining them was last week’s man of the protesting hour, Ryan Lochte, and his partner Cheryl Burke, who got through it without incident. That’s the good news. The bad news? That it simply wasn’t good from a technical standpoint, at all, and the scoreboard doesn’t lie. With the top and bottom tiers clearly established, we have everyone else pretty much bunched up in the middle trying to stay competitive. View Slideshow: Dancing with the Stars: Who Will Win? Will James Hinchcliffe and Sharna Burgess, Jana Kramer and Gleb Savchenko, or Vanilla Ice and Witney Carson be able to step it up? Will Megatron himself, Calvin Johnson and Lindsay Arnold, take it to the next level? Or will Marilu Henner and Derek Hough make a run? When you watch Dancing with the Stars online, you’ll see that they gave performances that were decent but not particularly memorable. Good enough to survive on next week’s results show? Most likely. But unlikely to take them to the finals without some real improvement. Who’s your pick this year?! View Slideshow: Dancing with the Stars: All the Winners!
Viewers of the latest, greatest E! reality sensation learned a great deal about Rob Kardashian Sunday night on Rob & Chyna Season 1 Episode 2 . Not all of it was positive, however, if we’re being honest. Watch Rob & Chyna Season 1 Episode 2 Online If you watch Rob & Chyna online , or know anything about Rob for that matter, it’s clear that he’s about as insecure as a person gets. About a great many things. Picking up where last week left off – Rob and Chyna accusing each other of cheating and Rob getting kicked out – things were intense. Perhaps it’s fitting given that Blac complained that her alleged baby daddy (unless the Pilot Jones rumors are true) leaves the house. He left it now, alright! For good? After getting the boot, Rob opened up to Scott Disick that he wasn’t ready to “move past” their fight, but soon he had a change of heart. Rob called Chyna in an attempt move on. “When Rob says really bad stuff about himself, it kinda throws me off a lot because I don’t see it,” Blac told the camera in a confessional. “Some of the stuff he thinks and says is really sad.” As for why he’s so insecure: “I had a really bad past relationship where the girl was cheating and having sex with so many different people.” He didn’t name any names, but it’s no secret that Rob once unloaded publicly that Rita Ora cheated on him with 20 dudes . Twenty. So, yeah, we’d say she’s the most likely candidate. Regardless of whether it’s Rita or Adrienne Bailon that sent Rob into such a self-loathing tailspin, his life has become pretty surreal. To hear Scott Disick tell it in the quote of the year: “Once upon a time, a couple years ago, I lost my whole entire family. Then I had a really big drug problem. Then I was in rehab.” “Then I got out. Then I was still into doing drugs and doing s–t.” “Rob hasn’t come out of the house in three or four years, then [Rob] knocked up his girlfriend after two weeks of knowing her.” That would about sum up Rob & Chyna Season 1 Episode 2. Lord Disick also set up cameras to spy on Rob, though he lamented, “I haven’t caught one jerk session yet. I think you’re an anti-jerkite.” While Rob may not beat the meat as often as Scott might like, he is not opposed to beating a dead horse when it comes to his issues. “I’m not comfortable in my skin, I’m not comfortable with this weight, I feel like I’m not happy with anything I do,” the reality star explained. Chyna’s response, after he used this as a reason for not moving back into the house he shares (shared?) with his pregnant fiance? “That’s f–king whack, Rob.” Pretty much. View Slideshow: Blac Chyna Photos: Her Most Scandalous, Sexy Pics on Instagram! Fortunately, after another heart to heart, and a great final draft by the E! producers and story editors, the couple made real progress! All kidding aside, it was kind of touching to watch them come together. And no, not in the way Scott would prefer to watch them come. She reflected on how the media portrays her in a negative light and how hard that is, and how Rob has been going through a lot lately. Chyna said: “I can understand why you feel a little bit insecure.” “About your body and stuff. Maybe I need to be more supportive of that and not be so hard on you, too. I’m just sorry for being rude.” “I came across this article bashing me about my ass collapsing,” she added, making it abundantly clear that “my ass ain’t collapsing.” True or not, “It kinda gets me down a little bit.” Be strong, you two.
