What can we expect from the fab four on the back half of Teen Mom 2 Season 5, which makes a long-awaited return on MTV tomorrow night (July 16)? Clearly, they have a lot on their respective plates. Because of the lag in production time and the quasi-celebrity status of the cast, we already know much of what we’ll see when we watch Teen Mom 2 . Not everything, though. Here’s what’s to come … Teen Mom 2 Season 5 Trailer (Part 2) For Jenelle Evans, perhaps the most famous, or infamous, Teen Mom still on MTV (sorry Farrah Abraham ), this season will show her trying motherhood. The North Carolina student is also the mother of four-year-old Jace, but she hasn’t had custody of him in forever. Now, she’s going to welcome #2. Having given birth June 29 to baby boy Kaiser with Nathan Griffith – an ex-Marine who she says deserves a “greatest dad award” – Jenelle Evans ‘ life is in flux. In a good way, we hope. Rumor has it Nathan will propose … soon. For Leah Messer Calvert, her marriage has hit even more snags. With her pipeline engineer husband and dad of Adalynn, 17 months, working out of state, “I wouldn’t hear from him for a couple days,” she says. Counseling has remedied that, but she’s also got 4-year-olds Aliannah and Aleeah (with ex Corey Simms) to contend with. How’s it all going? “This is the relationship we’re supposed to have,” she says. We can only hope that’s true, as Leah has the most responsibilities of any of the four by far. To take nothing away from Kailyn Lowry, of course. After countless custody fights, Kailyn – now married with a second child by Javi Marroquin – and baby daddy Jo Rivera have finally struck a peace deal. “We make our own rules as we go,” Lowry says of that situation. Often, in a contentious relationship, that’s as good as it gets. She’s not happy in her marriage to Javi, however. Adjusting to life with Lincoln, 8 months, “was a struggle,” though she still thinks a “rhythm that works” is attainable. Finally, there’s Chelsea Houska, who swears she is never, ever getting back with Adam Lind, who will remain a thorn in her side for the rest of his life. Whatever their relationship status, he has a way of making her life worse … although she’s got a good job and is into CrossFit now, so there’s that.

It’s one for the ages right here.
Dear Bossip , I’ve been with my boyfriend, on and off, all through high school. We’re both under 20 years of age and have an apartment together. I guess everything is fading because every other week or month he’s been asking me would I like to go back home, like I just can. I moved away from my family, but me and my family aren’t that close anyway. And, I’ve been getting frustrated with him about that, but lately he told me he’s not physically nor sexually attracted to me anymore. Quiet honestly, I’m not attracted to myself; I’m not saying this because I feel bad or anything. I know I’m not looking my best, but how can I when I’m young and pay bills? I can’t even by myself a new hair bow. I need a makeover, or sweepstakes. But, it’s not that easy because the apartment and bills are in my name and we have a savings account together. He’s controlling, and I’m tired of that, too. It’s always he can say and do whatever, but I can’t and he’s overly insecure. If you seen him you wouldn’t think that because he’s very good looking. I don’t know. I really need some advice. It’s not easy not having anyone to talk to. I’ve also felt that I was pulling away from him because my interest has been on girls lately. But, also, because I feel like I’m too good to keep putting up with this after all I’ve done and continue to do. Is our high school romance over? Please let me know. – Ms. Trying To Get Me Good Dear Ms. Trying To Get Me Good , Yes, the high school romance is over. You are no longer lovebirds living under the protection and roofs of your parents, sneaking out with each other on the weekdays and week nights to meet up and talk about your dreams and fantasies. You are no longer in high school, meeting at your locker in between classes, kissing and feeling one another up, and making plans to skip school. Nope. Those days are long gone. You both decided you wanted to be adults, and play grown-ups, and move out on your own and live in your high school sweetheart bliss. Welp, you did and it’s not so pretty is it? Life is hard, and it’s tough. Life is full of paying bills, going to work, and being responsible adults. It’s not about laying up and laying around your loved one all day, and not having a worry in a world. It’s about taking care of yourselves, feeding yourselves, and struggling to keep the lights on, the water, paying car notes, your phones, and traveling back and forth to work. Welcome to adulthood. Welcome to being independent and living on your own. Now, because –ish has hit the fan, and the reality has set in for him, he is ready to bail out and call it quits. He’s ready to run home and go back to the safety net he once had. He’s figured out that life is not kind. It’s not hanging out in the streets and not worrying if food will be on the table and in the fridge when he comes home. He has to work. Be a man. And, take care of his responsibilities. And, you have become part of his responsibility. No longer is it just about him, or just about you. It’s the two of you in this together. So, now what do you do? Do you give up and run back home? Unfortunately, you say you can’t go home because you’re not close with your family. What will you do, or what can you do? Well, it will suck if he just up and leaves you and returns home. That is why he keeps asking you if you would like to go back home. The reality is that he wants to go back and home. And, because you can’t he is frustrated. He is angry. And, you are part of his frustration and anger. And, this puts a strain on your relationship and his feelings for you where he no longer finds you attractive physically or sexually. He wants out and feels obligated to stay. SMH! You have options. And, you need to strongly consider them. The first is let him go home. Let him leave, and end this relationship. He is not about this life, and you can’t afford to take care of him emotionally or mentally, nor be in this unhealthy relationship where he resents you. Why be with someone who doesn’t find you physically or sexually attractive? Why be with someone who resents you, and wants to control you? It’s not worth your sanity, health, and well-being. Let him go, wish him well, and figure out how you can either stay in this apartment by yourself, or you find a smaller studio apartment that you can afford. It’s time to look out for you! The next option is that you both return home to your parent’s homes. Yes, that means you will have to learn how to work on your relationship with your parent/s, and resolve the matter as an adult. No more arguing, no more talking back, and no more bucking their rules. I know it’s hard being a young adult living with your parent/s, and you think you know it all. Well, apparently that hasn’t worked out for you because look at your situation. At some point, you have to grow up, and start to take responsibility for your part and what you contribute to the dissention in the relationship. Sit down, talk, and work it out. Whatever is going on at home, you can talk about it. Learn to listen, and learn how to better communicate with one another. Being at home will allow you the opportunity to continue working, save some money, and you can give yourself 6 months to a year to earn enough money to move into another smaller and more affordable apartment alone. Yes, alone. The relationship with your boyfriend is over. It’s time to focus on you, building you, and taking care of yourself. And, also get back into school. Having an education, and empowering yourself will pay off in the long run so you won’t end up in this same rut. The final option is that you and your boyfriend can reassess your situation, get into couple’s counseling, and find an apartment that is more affordable to your income. There are some issues and challenges you both face and need to address. You have problems at home, and with your family that you bringing into this relationship. He resents you, and is unhappy in this situation, and has emotionally, mentally, and physically shut down from you. You see the layers that is being created simply because neither of you are not ready for the types of responsibilities you’re taking on, and you’re both under 20 years of age? You’re also complicating matters with your sexuality, and questioning whether you want to be with girls. You don’t find yourself pretty or attractive. You give all your power over to him, and you allow him to dictate to you what you can and cannot do. If you remain in this relationship, and in this situation it will only get worse. He will become verbally abusive, emotionally abusive, and then physically abusive. And, you will stay because you feel you have no place to go, nowhere to turn, and no one to talk to. You have the power to change this situation, and this circumstance. Think of you. Think of what you desire and what you want out of life. If it means ending it with him, then end it. If it means you struggle on your own without him, then it’s better to struggle alone than with someone who doesn’t want to be with you. The worst thing you can do is try to make someone stay with you who doesn’t want to be with you, or force something that is no longer working. If he wants to leave, then let him leave. Hell, help him pack, and wish him well. He is doing you a favor. And, I’m sure there are some programs, centers, and groups that can assist you in finding an apartment, a better job, and getting into college, either community college, or a trade school. Find a spiritual foundation, church, or center where you can go and talk to someone, and also a place where you can get motivated and inspired. Surround yourself with positive reinforcements. You can reclaim your life, and your power, but you have to be willing to do it. So, look at your options, and welcome to the real world.

According to various reports, Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres may be headed for divorce . And in what could be even worse news for the talk show icon, de Rossi may have been in the habit of covertly videotaping the couple’s violent fights with the goal of exploiting Ellen should they ever break up. “Portia secretly taped some of their fights. She was drunk,” a source tells In Touch. “Then she threatened to expose Ellen as controlling and manipulating.” The insider claims DeGeneres flew into a rage when she discovered de Rossi’s scheme and proceeded to smash Portia’s phone to ensure the footage wouldn’t get out. Sources say Ellen and Portia are currently struggling to save their marriage and de Rossi recently completed a stint in an alcoholism treatment facility. DeGeneres and de Rossi married in 2008 and seemed for a time to be the ideal Hollywood couple. Neither party has yet spoken publicly about the rumors regarding their relationship troubles or de Rossi’s excessive drinking.

There may be some clear signs your relationship has problems that you’re failing to recognize. Special K is giving all you couples out there something to…
Say it ain’t so! Those two look like such a wholesome, faithful couple… Fat Trel’s Baby Mama Claims He Is Having An Affair With Blac Chyna Up-and-coming MMG rapper Fat Trel has no shortage of Baby Mama Drama. He already has one child that he is apparently still seeking a paternity test for, and now according to Twitter, a new one on the way with a young woman with a lot of disdain for the rapper and quite a mouth on her. A user by the name of @ChrisssssyV popped up on twitter making reckless claims about Gleesh’s past, refusal to claim paternity, and general personality flaws earlier today. In the midst of her tweeted allegations that he “ain’t a real n*gga” and is “overly pressed for b*tches,” she dropped a potential bomb on the relationship of the first couple of stripper/rapper unity: Tyga and Blac Chyna. Beyond this point, a heated exchange ensued between this alleged new Baby Mama and Fat Trel’s known Baby Mama @upper_echalant. No not echelon…”echalant.” Get it right. LADIES! Aren’t there more important things to fight over? At the very least, more attractive men who actually claim all their children. But, we digress… Back to the topic at hand…do you think there’s any truth to this Chrissy lady’s claims about Trel’s trip to Chyna?
Told y’all this was the “On The Rocks” tour. .. Beyoncé Changes Lyric To “Resentment” On Tour, Fueling Rumors Jay Z Cheated In the latest case of reading into every little thing they do for a glimmer of what might actually be going on in the Knowles-Carter household, Beyoncé has tongues wagging over her choice of words during her Saturday night performance of “Resentment.” According to NY Daily News reports: The 32-year-old singer changed one very important lyric to the song “Resentment” while performing it live during the couple’s On the Run Tour in Ohio Saturday. While belting out the track, which is about a woman who was cheated on, Queen Bey sang “been riding with you for 12 years” instead of the original words “been riding with you for six years.” When Beyonce first recorded her version of the song for her second studio album, “B’day,” in 2006, she and Jay had been dating for four years. In an interview at the time for 4Music, a entertainment channel in the UK, Blue Ivy’s mama said it was one of her new songs that she was the most proud of on “B’day.” “The song on my new album I am proudest of is probably “Resentment. I feel like vocally I’ve grown, I feel like all the chord changes and the beautiful harmonies and the lyrics is something that I really am proud of,” she said in a video clip. Now, the married pair have been together for a total of 12 years prompting speculation that she was redirecting the song at the infidelity within her own marriage. A member of the Ohio audience captured the part of the performance in question and uploaded it to YouTube, as first pointed out by the Daily Mirror. The songstress wore a wedding dress onstage while she sang the sad song and the crowd roared when she swapped out the line from six years to 12. Watch her performance below: So what do you think? Is Beyoncé really trying to let it be known that Hov is a philanderer — or was she just adjusting the length of their relationship to correspond with real life? RexUSA/YouTube
July marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Forrest Gump. The Tom Hanks film that’s come to be regarded as a modern classic was one of the biggest box office smashes of the 1990s and went on to win six Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Catchphrases such as, “Stupid is as stupid does,” and, “Life is like a box of chocolates,” are among the most oft-quoted lines in the history of cinema. While A-listers such as Tom Hanks and Sally Field remain very much in the public eye, we figured this milestone anniversary of the beloved film would be a good time to check in on what all of the principal players have been up to in the two decades since Forrest Gump first hit theaters: Forrest Gump Cast Photos 1. Tom Hanks Hanks has gone on to maintain his title as one of the most beloved and bankable stars in Hollywood. He’s now racked up an astonishing 5 Oscar nominations with 2 wins. Some of the film’s marquee names have gone on to reign supreme amongst critics and audiences alike (both Hanks and Fields have Oscars in the years since), while others quickly faded into obscurity (Remember Haley Joel Osment ?) But whatever turns their careers took in the years that followed, we’re sure all the cast crew of Gump regard the film as the most pleasant unexpected surprise of their careers. A cherry cordial amidst almond nougats, if you will.
