Tarek El Moussa: Getting His Very Own Show on HGTV!

Last fall, Christina El Moussa was spotted filming her very own show ,  Christina on the Coast . It was a huge deal to the Flip or Flop star and to her many fans. Now, Tarek’s the one who has reportedly landed his own series. RadarOnlin e  reports that Tarek El Moussa is getting his very own HGTV show, just as his ex-wife has done. “He’s excited!” an insider dishes to the tabloid. Apparently, a key element of his enthusiasm is that this will be a starring role — he won’t be a cohost. As the source explains: “It’s just his show.” That would be cause for celebration for anyone, right? Fans got to know Tarek alongside his wife on  Flip or Flop . According to the insider, this series will be “a little different” than what fans have seen of the El Moussa family before. The series is said to follow Tarek in his role as a newly single dad, finding his way through life. Tarek’s show will reportedly premiere later this year. This is exciting stuff — for Tarek, and for his countless fans. Obviously, Tarek is not the first El Moussa to land his very own HGTV series. Christina’s very own show, Christina on the Coast, actually premiered recently. Beginning on May 23, the series is set to air for eight weeks. At the risk of lessening Tarek’s accomplishments, we have to wonder if HGBT greenlit his show after seeing a positive reaction to Christina’s spinoff. Sometimes, solo acts don’t work, no matter how popular the original ensemble was. (Anyone else remember  Joey ?) But clearly the network believes in the power of the El Moussa brand. Of course, Christina and Tarek are still cohosts. Despite their lengthy, bitter divorse — which wasn’t finalized until last year — the two remain the stars of  Flip or Flop . And despite this pair of spinoffs,  Flip or Flop  is expected to continue. So long as the hosts can get along on camera, it makes sense to keep the series afloat because viewers love it. And the show that made them famous isn’t the only thing keeping the El Moussas in touch with one another. … Tarek and Christina share two young children. Together, they have a daughter named Taylor and a son named Brayden. Even during the divorce itself, when the two were otherwise avoiding each other, they made efforts to coparent effectively. Due to some family contention, they would sometimes hold separate celebrations for the same event. For Brayden and Taylor, however, that meant double birthday parties. Not exactly a nightmare. Tarek El Moussa has recently spoken about becoming a new man after being “broken” by his widely publicized divorce and by his cancer battle. As with Christina, it will be very interesting to see how he handles a show on his own. We have a sneaking suspicion that he’ll do well. Right now, we’re just hoping to see official confirmation that this is a real thing that is happening. Announcements are great for washing away all doubts.

Andrei Castravet to Elizabeth: Don’t Terrorize Me With Your Pregnancy!

90 Day Fans have only a couple of days to tear themselves away from Larissa Lima's assault trial verdict and prepare for the new episode. Happily Ever After? returns on Sunday night, and in this clip, Elizabeth tries to put her foot down with Andrei about getting a job. Like, a real job. But Andrei scoffs at her suggestions, and demands that she not “terrorize” him with her pregnancy. Yikes, dude. In this 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? sneak peek, Elizabeth gets assertive about Andrei needing to figure out a means of gainful employment. “I'm fixing up an ad,” Andrei tells a pregnant Elizabeth. “Posting it.” “I'm just fixing it up,” he adds. “I have to add some stuff.” Andrei then tells the camera: “The difference between America and Moldova is life here is more expensive.” “And I think Elizabeth is a little frustrated because we're not having enough income at this point,” he correctly speculates. Andrei seems confident that his alleged handyman skills, the ones that he did not display at their last home, will solve that problem. Meanwhile, Elizabeth talks about how busy she was at work that day. She has real concerns that she will soon reach the point at which, because of her pregnancy, she will have to take time off. Andrei responds to that by making a strange expression, as if Elizabeth is somehow being overly dramatic. This … is not going to endear him to viewers. This isn't endearing him to his wife, either. “I don't really think that Andrei realizes how much this is affecting me,” Elizabeth admits. “And,” she continues. “It's really coming to a point where it's getting to me.” Elizabeth is worried “because I'm only becoming more and more pregnant and more hormonal and exhausted and stressed.” “And,” she correclty expresses. “It shouldn't be that way.” In an apparent attempt to ease the tension that his indolence has created, Andrei offers Elizabeth a drink. “You wanta  beer?” he asks his pregnant wife. “Yes,” Elizabeth answers in a total deadpan. “Please.” “Just messing,” Andrei says, sounding amused with himself. “I know you're pregnant.” Careful, Andrei's next big career move idea might be to try his hand at standup. “So,” Elizabeth asks. “Have you tried asking my dad for a job?” “Oh my God,” Andrei replies. “No,” he says firmly. “I'm not going to ask him.” Her face conveying mountains of frustration, emotional exhaustion, and good ol' fashioned physical exhaustion, Elizabeth asks: “Why?” Andrei's excuse is, frankly, difficult to understand, but it sounds like he thinks that her father will be critical of his work. “Elizabeth's dad, for her, is saving angel,” Andrei assesses, noting that she has gone to her father for assistance. Andrei thinks that, because he's the “man of the house,” this is demeaning to him, which is extremely stupid. “So … you're not gonna ask him,” Elizabeth asks. “It's stupid, Lib!” Andrei exclaims foolishly. Then, she lets him have it. “Your attitude is stupid!” Elizabeth exclaims. “Just ask him for a damn job. It's not that hard.Ask him for a job!” Actual job hunts are extremely difficult, particularly in this hell economy. But Andrei has an opportunity that's knocking and he's ignoring it. “Because of your pride and your ego, you refuse,” Elizabeth notes. “And I'm over here stressed out and pregnant, and have all this weight on my shoulders.” Then Andrei demands: “Don't terrorize me with your pregnancy.” Ugh.

Zach Roloff Reveals Scary New Health Problem: What Will This Mean?

Should the Roloffs sell their farm? This has been the main question permeating Little People, Big World this season and it stirred up a bunch of tension between loved ones. On Tuesday night’s installment of the TLC hit, however, the in-fighting stopped for a bit because one member of this famous family faced a question not about the property’s future… … but about his own. “I’ve been having a lot of pain in my back and my legs,” Zach told the cameras early on, explaining what was happening: “There’s like a tightness to my thighs, there’s a weakness in my knees. Something’s not going right.” Yikes. That definitely does not sound right. Considering all the activity surrounding pumpkin season on the farm – as well as playing and coaching soccer and being the father of a energetic toddler – Zach wasn’t certain what could have triggered his symptoms. One second he felt fine, the next second he was actually “paralyzed for a minute,” to use his own frightening words. Watch Little People, Big World Season 14 Episode 9 Online Afraid mostly for his own safety, but also for what might happen if he was holding young son Jackson when such a symptom kicked in, Zach made an appointment to see a doctor. He got an MRI there. “It’s scary, because I can’t help him, and it’s also like we don’t know what’s causing the issue,” wife Tori Roloff confessed. Unfortunately, upon getting the results back from this big test, Zach and Tori were stunned to learn that his prognosis wasn’t very positive: Zach has been diagnosed with multilevel degenerative disc disease causing spinal stenosis. “It’s a common thing with people with achondroplasia,” Zach explained of the condition. “But average-sized people only get it when they’re like 60.” Zach is only 29. As a dwarf, his life expectancy is not very different from that of an average-sized individual; he just needs to face health issues such as this along the way. (For the record, Jackson is also a dwarf and Tori recently said the odds of their second child being a dwarf is about 50/50.) With bulging and degenerating discs in his spine pinching the nerves, Zach would need to see a spinal specialist to determine whether he would have to undergo surgery now or later. Either way, though, it’s inevitable. Something must be done to fix his spinal chord. Discovering that he would almost certainly have to undergo major surgery, Zach admitted he was “in denial,” adding: “Two months, three months ago, I was in a soccer tournament, and now I have arthritis in my back? What’s going on here?” Tori was equally freaked out, telling the camera in a confessional: “I am scared. That’s the worst case scenario in my head for him to have surgery. I’m trying really hard not to panic.” We feel awful for Zach. After all this debate about the farm and what to do about it, such a defelopment really puts things into perspective, doesn’t it? Yes, whether to sell the farm and move on is a big deal for Amy and Matt Roloff — but it’s nothing at all when compared to the well-being of their child.

Beth Chapman Publicly Shames Step-Daughter for Mother’s Day Snub

This past Mother’s Day, Beth Chapman was praised by fans and celebrated by her family as her cancer battle continues. But the Dog The Bounty Hunter star has a bone to pick with one relative, her step-daughter, whom she accuses of not giving her a shoutout. Beth posted a series of tweets calling out Little Lyssa, who then fired back and accused Beth of lying. “I’m very disappointed today,” Beth writes on Twitter. Notably, she ddin’t just tweet this — it is currently her pinned tweet . “[K]nowing that not only did my daughter @BabyLyssaC not acknowledge me on Mother’s Day,” Beth accuses. She continues: “yet texted some of my friends wishing them a HMD.” “She [also] decides to exclude her dad and I from [Lyssa’s daughter Abbie Mae Chapman, 16] graduation on Friday,” Beth reveals. Beth claims: “I would have moved a mountain to be there.” Beth had more to add, responding to questions from fans. “[I’ve] only got a few things to look forward too,” Beth tells a fan, reminding them of her cancer battle. “Our kids can be hurtful sometimes,” Beth laments. “I just hate that the grandkids get tied up in mom’s mess.” Another asked Beth why she had to air the family drama in such a public forum. “Because she doesn’t answer my calls and has us blocked,” Beth claims. “So I’m going to reach my child how [ever] I see fit.” Another fan tries to advise Beth to not “sweat the small stuff,” but Beth isn’t having it. “Not being invited to my granddaughter’s graduation when she graduating a year early is a huge milestone to miss,” she points out. “I’ll decide what’s best for me to get upset about,” Beth asserts. She then shows that she’s not attacking the follower who questioned her priorities. “[Thank you] for your concern,” Beth adds. “Maddie texted grandma you did nothing as usual we didn’t know when Abbie’s grad was,” Beth writes in another tweet. “Yes we would have been there!” she asserts. “[You’re] not off the hook Lyssa,” Beth warns. “You Invite your parents regardless,” she demands. “I bet Leigh’s parents we’re invited.” “We could have been home in time,” Beth suggests. “You chose not to even tell us.” The fact of the matter is that there’s bad blood between Little Lyssa, whom Duane had with his third wife, also named Lyssa, and Beth and Duane. “I had been molested by a friend of his,” Lyssa recalled in 2016. “It was a horrible life that I never wanted to go back to.” Lyssa said that she hated ‘living with him and Beth and the fighting and the drugs.” “When I got to my mother’s, although she drank, it was much more peaceful,” Lyssa reveals. That’s heartbreaking. “I was in school, I had friends,” Lyssa explained. “I was willing to do anything to not go back.” Though it appeared that they had mended fences in 2018, it seems lcear that not all is well. Beth continued after fans told her of how they, too, felt sidelined or forgotten on Mother’s Day. “I’m very surprised by the many friends here who were not held in the highest of honor on mother day,” Beth tweeted. “People, what are we teaching our kids?” she asks, bizarrely adding: “Where are the fathers to explain the importance of a mother?” “You only get one and sometimes a bonus mom,” Beth suggests. “It’s the most hurtful act to not acknowledge the woman who gave you life or the who saved it,” she accuses. Obviously, nobody asks to be born or burdened with life, and it seems a little odd to demand worship over an unbidden “gift.” “It’s a thankless job, sometimes, and one that requires [patience] and forgiveness,” Beth ranted about motherhood. “I’ve been blessed with my kids and my bonus kids,” Beth notes. “I love them all equally.” “My life would not have been the same without them,” she affirms. “However, in the end, when they are not there,” she observes. “You wonder if you ever meant anything to them at all.” Of course, sometimes a parent has a negative impact on a child’s life, which is probably how Lyssa is feeling. Lyssa did respond on Twitter. “Life I short and you should focus on the good things,” she suggests. “I’m not going to battle with you ever again,” she promises. “If your intent was to hurt me or Abbie with lies,” Lyssa writes. “Don’t worry. You didn’t.” “I am so excited, happy and proud there is nothing you can do to dull my or Abbie’s shine,” Lyssa assures Beth. “As we both know you never intended to be home in Hawaii this week,” Lyssa accuses. “And I’m sorry you feel some type of way.” “You want to talk,” Lyssa concludes. “You got my number.” Maybe Beth has more important battles to fight than dragging her step-daughter’s name through the mud, huh?

Adam Levine Quits the Voice, Show Names Hilarious Replacement

Adam Levine has officially turned his chair all the way around… and headed for the exit. In somewhat surprising news announced by Carson Daly this morning on Today, we’ve learned that the Maroon 5 frontman will be leaving his post as a coach on The Voice. He had served in this very handsome capacity for 16 seasons. “After 16 seasons, Adam Levine, our beloved coach and friend, has decided to leave The Voice,” Daly told NBC viewers on Friday morning, adding: “Adam was one of the original coaches that launched the show, winning the competition three times and inspiring many of the artists he worked closely with over the years.” It’s true. Many have pointed to the chemistry between Levine and Blake Shelton as a key reason for the ongoing success of The Voice. And Daly referenced this friendship in his Today Show tribute to Levine. “Of course, many viewers will miss his frenemy relationship with Blake Shelton. He will always be a cherished member of The Voice family. We wish him nothing but the best,” concluded The Voice host. Levine has appeared on every single season of The Voice since its 2011 debut. Along with Shelton, the artist is the only coach to not take any seasons off during the series’ run. The Grammy winner came out on top with teacm Javier Colon on season 1… Tessanne Chin on season 5… and Jordan Smith on season 9. (Most recently, John Legend earned the season victory thanks to contestant Maelyn Jarmon .) As for why Levine is leaving now, it may have something to do with some of the criticism he received for seemingly played favorites when he went to bat for singer Reagan Strange this year. However, an insider tells Us Weekly that this “backlash” had nothing to do with Adam’s “difficult” decision. “Having a hard time wrapping my head around @adamlevine not being at @NBCTheVoice anymore,” Shelton Tweeted in response to ths news. “After 16 seasons that changed both of our lives. I only found out about this yesterday and it hasn’t set in on me yet. Gonna miss working with that idiot.” We’re pretty sure Shelton will be happy with Levine’s replacement, however. “With Adam’s departure you might be wondering, ‘Well, who’s going to be sitting in that coveted big, giant red chair?’” Daly continued in his announcement. “And I’m happy to share this morning that Gwen Stefani will be returning for season 17. Gwen has sat in the chair before. She met her current boyfriend, Blake Shelton, through the show and we’re looking forward to having Gwen back.” So there you have it. Prepare for even more playful banter between Shelton and this new/former coach, along with a few games of tonsil hockey. Stefani, who has been dating Shelton since 2015, has appeared on seasons 7, 9, and 12 of The Voice. She has yet to win the competition, though. Elsewhere, Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Shakira, Usher, Pharrell Williams, Miley Cyrus, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson and Legend have all been featured as full-time coaches on the program. “Found out last night about @adamlevine leaving The Voice & while I get that he’s been doing the show 4 a while & wants to step away, it will be weird showing up 4 work & he’s not there,” Clarkson Tweeted on Friday. “To start an amazing show from the ground up is a big deal!” Yes it is. Will you keep watching The Voice in Levine’s absence?

Vicki Gunvalson: Dropped From the Real Housewives of Orange County?

Is she a  Real Housewife or not? This is the burning question srrounding Orange County OG Vicki Gunvalson as we build up to the show’s 14th season. Since rumors of her demotion sprang up in February, Vicki’s been scrambling to show fans and producers alike that she’s relevant enough to remain a full cast member. Vicki’s engagement to Steve Lodge in April was her most recent attempt to offer up something, anything, for the series to use as a storyline. It seemed like the engagement was supposed to save Vicki’s role as a Full Housewife for season 14.  We can even imagine the eventual wedding being perfect fodder for season 15, with a scintillating divorce playing out across later seasons. Well played, Vicki. But if Vicki’s role is truly safe, why is she absent from the show’s promotional material? An inside source told Us Weekly that Vicki was excluded from the rest of the housewives’ group cast photos. “Last week, the RHOC cast shot their official photos for the next season,” the insider revealed. “Vicki was not included in the group cast photos and they shot multiple options,” the source continued. These annual group cast photos are the ones you’ll likely see over and over again throughout the season, wherever the series is advertised. So it’s a pretty big deal for the show’s longest-running cast member to be missing from the shot. If the photographers shot mutliple options for the group and didnt include Vicki in any of them, it seems clear that her ouster was intentional. Although she didn’t pose for the group photo, Vicki was present on the set during the photoshoot,  Us Weekly reports.  If she got called to the set, she’s almost sure to appear on the show in some capacity. But it’s looking more likely that she’ll have a reduced role, as fans have speculated Rumors began to surface in February that Vicki had been demoted to “Friend” of the Housewives , a more ancillary role with presumably less screen time.  It made sense. Vicki’s been on the show a long time after all, and the show needs to make room for new housewives, like this season’s Braunwyn Windham-Burke. Vicki also recently squashed her beef with castmates Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador, which is great for their personal lives, but not great for our entertainment. Shannon has her ongoing divorce drama with David Beador, and Tamra is the kind of walking nightmare that always gets great ratings, so they’re both easy picks to keep. Vicki was quick to dismiss the demotion rumors on Twitter, urging fans not to believe anything they didn’t hear straight from her.  Okay fine, but for her to still be in negotiations after the season had already started filming is a pretty good sign that her status was up in the air. Evidence of Vicki being put on the backburner has only piled up since then. Inside sources report she took a 50% pay cut for any potential episodes. And reports say she’s been a holy terror to her costars on set , in an attempt to amp up the drama (and her screen presence). We also know that Bravo’s cameras were present and rolling for Steve’s proposal to Vicki. So, even if she has been friend-zoned, we’re sure to get some juicy moments with Vicki Gunvalson this season. Reduced pay notwithstanding, would it really be so bad to be just a friend of the housewives? Well, with friends like these…. yeah, probably. But Vicki’s official status is still up in the air.  We’re sure all will be revealed when The Real Housewives of Orange County  returns this summer View Slideshow: Vicki Gunvalson: DEMOTED to “Friend” of the Real Housewives in Stunning Shakeup!
