There have been many, many odd couples featured on 90 Day Fiance . In fact, over the course of the show’s entire run, there have only been one or two that actually made any sense together. But one of the most mismatched pairs in the K-1 Visa Hall of Fame has gotta be Danielle Mullins and Mohammed Jbali. We’re not here for any sort of body-shaming or speculation about what went on behind closed doors. But Danielle and Mohammed were on par with Nicole and Azan in terms of one-sided attraction and appearing to very rarely take any pleasure in one another’s company. Unlike the 90 Day poster couple, however, Danielle and Mohammed did get married — it just didn’t last. Despite the brevity of that union, however, Danielle has kept Mohammed’s last name — and she’s still forced to answer questions about him on an almost-daily basis. “I am entitled to keep the name,” she once told a fan who asked why she hangs on to her married moniker. “The name does not define me. Plenty of women use their married name after divorce. I don’t need to change my name to have closure.” That was back in 2017, and that should have been the end of it — right? Well, unfortunately, we’re talking about the internet in the 21st century, a time and place where no matter is ever settled and everything is up for debate until the end of days. As a result, Danielle is still getting grilled about her surname — and it seems she’s growing increasingly frustrated with that line of questioning. “I use my legal name on all my social media due to trying to verify my accounts,” she recently tweeted in response to additional queries. “When you are trying to verify, you have to show government ID.” Hmmm … that reasoning doesn’t completely fly as display names and account names are different matters on most social media sites. But the fact remains that Danielle is allowed to continue using her ex’s name if she so chooses. And thankfully, she has plenty of supporters out there. “For f–k’s sake, why in the hell [do] people still mention Mohamed?” one fan recently remarked, according to In Touch . “Especially in a post about her kids.” “Right?” Danielle succinctly replied. She later expanded on the matter when another follower encouraged her to “move on.” “I have,” Mullins wrote. “It is you people that keep mentioning him that can’t move on. I have been moved on since late 2016.” It may not seem like a very aggressive clap back, but for the usually softspoken Danielle, it’s a mouthful. And in any event, the proof is in the pudding when it comes to her ability to move on. We recently learned that Mullins is dating someone new , almost three years after her split from Mohammed. Clearly, neither of them mind that she’s still rocking the Jbali name, and that’s all that matters. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Couples: Are They Still Together?
It’s been a rough week for Lindsay Lohan. Sure that’s probably been the case just about every week since 2011 or so, but these few days have been especially trying for the actress-turned-wannabe-reality-star. Proving that the world has officially lost interest in her freckled shenanigans, Page Six is reporting today that Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club has been canceled by MTV after just one season. No doubt it’s a major blow to Lindsay, who likely regarded the project as her best chance at returning to relevance. (LiLo is as delusional as they come, but even she must be starting to realize her dream of starring in a live-action remake of The Little Mermaid will never, ever come to fruition. The cancelation probably comes as a disappointment to MTV, as well. While Beach Club ‘s shoestring budget was evident in its shoddy production values, the network threw all of its promotional muscle into making the show a hit. And at first, the efforts paid off. Beach Club premiered in January to decent ratings, but those numbers declined rapidly when viewers realized what they were getting — a half-assed Vanderpump Rules knockoff with Lindsay bafflingly cast in the role of older, wiser mentor/mogul, a la Lisa Vanderpump. People want to see Lindsay partying and generally being a mess, not dispensing life advice to a group of interchangeable twentysomethings. Despite all of that, Lindsay’s dwindling clout might have been enough to earn her a second season, were it not for one pesky detail: It seems Lohan Beach Club in Mykonos has closed its doors for good. “A friend had reservations this week, and the club just called and said that they will not be opening this season,” a source tells Page Six . Another recently-returned vacationer confirmed that the club appeared to be closed during their time in Greece, and Mykonos residents seemed to have adopted a “good riddance” attitude. “The locals said it was a waste [of time to go],” the tipster recalls. “They advertised being open for [the] summer season, specifically late May. We drove past and it’s literally [deserted] … The Lohan sign is stripped off,” a third traveler wrote on Facebook. Insiders say multiple plans to tinker with the show and revive it for a second season were ultimately scrapped. “There was a renewal idea that producers hoped would perk it up for a second season,” says a source close to the production. “It would be turned into a show about Lindsay and [her mother] Dina and [sister] Ali, [but] that wasn’t going to happen.” The insider adds that the cast of beach club employees simply failed to deliver the fireworks execs had hoped for: “They wanted ‘breakdowns.’ That’s not where [Lohan] is at with her life anymore,” the informant claims. “Their personal business doesn’t need to be aired on television; it’s already in the papers anyway.” Clearly, a show focused on the famously troubled Lohan family would have had a much easier time finding an audience. But it seems that’s not the image that LiLo is looking to project these days. In any event, Beach Club is officially a thing of the past now, as a rep for Lohan confirmed that “she is not doing another season.” RIP to one of the worst reality shows in history .

Disgraced former Southern Charm star Thomas Ravenel scored a small courtroom victory against Kathryn Dennis . But now she’s getting a victory of her own — a sworn affidavit about Thomas and Ashley’s continued, secret relationship. She got her hands on text messages, plus testimony about Thomas’ reliance upon nannies, Ashley, and alcohol. The Blast reports that Kathryn Dennis has scored a small victory in her custody battle with Thomas Ravenel. Court documents reveal that a woman named Lara Dawson was roommates with Ashley Jacobs. The duration of their roommate status lasted from September 2018 until January 2019. (Notably, this was not during a time in which Ashley or Thomas were very open about being in each other’s orbits) Lara encountered Thomas on numerous occassions during this time period. According to Lara’s affidavit, she accused Thomas of having a drinking problem. She also says that Ashley “corroborated” her suspicion. “Whenever she [Ashley] and Thomas would break up,” Lara recalls. “She’d always tell me the truth about what had been occurring over at his house.” “She always talked about his alcoholism,” Lara says. “And the fact that she was tired of taking care of his children.” And yes, there was more about Thomas’ kids. Lara says that she learned that Thomas had once had once become so drunk that he couldn’t even read his children a book. From what she gleaned through Ashley, he was also heavily reliant upon the nanny to care for Kensie and Saint. Apparently, Ashley would speak very directly about her experiences with Thomas whenever they would temporarily break up. Lara is very direct about not being a neutral observer. She describes Ashley as having a terrible temper and being “extremely vindictive.” To back up her statements, Lara submitted to the court text conversations that she had exchanged with Ashley. In the mean time, we already reported on Thomas Ravenel’s small win. Citing Kathryn’s decision to speak about the custody battle on Southern Charm , the judge unsealed the case. Now we know more: that Thomas was outraged that Kathryn had spoken about him. From what The Blast reports, it doesn’t sound like he was worried about the privacy of their children. Instead, he was apparently just unhappy that Kathryn was making him look bad. Thomas’ unhappiness has led him to drag even Andy Cohen into this battle. Notably, he had already accused Bravo of pushing Kathryn to seek sole custody for reality TV drama. But he’s taken specific issue with Kathryn’s latest appearance on Watch What Happens Live. While there, she said something to the effect that Thomas wouldn’t leave her alone. Andy responded with encouragement, telling Kathryn “everyone is rooting for you.” In Thomas’ eyes, this interview constituted Andy actively disparaging him and telling the world that Thomas was a liar. That’s … quite a take. And he continues to express his unhappiness at Bravo for not mentioning in court that they intended to address the custody battle on the show. Some may argue that it’s common sense that a reality star would discuss important life events on the reality show on which she stars. But it’s not clear how that would go over as a legal argument. We suppose that we’ll all find out. View Slideshow: Kathryn Dennis: I Can PROVE Thomas Ravenel is an Unstable Liar!
On the surface, Jenelle Evans and Ashley Martson have quite a lot in common. They’re both reality stars; they both have seriously questionable taste in men; both would apparently break out in hives if they ever went more than 30 seconds without spouting some sort of obvious lie … the list goes on and on. But the same things can be said about countless awful reality stars. So why are Jenelle and Ashley both appearing in so many of the same headlines, and why is one media outlet apparently under the impression that they’re the same person? It all started Wednesday morning when E! News ran a story claiming that Jenelle had been hospitalized for lupus. “I am dealing with a lupus flare-up and pyelonephritis,” the site quoted Evans. “I also have a large cyst on my left ovary the surgeons are coming down to evaluate if they need to remove or not. “They have started an IV of Levaquin and have me in morphine and Zofran.” A source told the site that Evans and husband David Eason have been “quietly dealing” with the diagnosis. The insider went on to explain that the stress from Jenelle having her kids taken away seems to have resulted in a flare-up of symptoms: “Things have been so intensely stressful for her that it’s made her sick to the point that she had to be rushed to the hospital,” the tipster claimed. But there are a few problems with this story, namely, the fact that Jenelle doesn’t have lupus; she’s not in the hospital; and she doesn’t “quietly deal with” anything. If she had an actual diagnosable medical condition, Jenelle would be shouting it from the rooftops and using it as an excuse for why she neglected her kids to the point that CPS felt they were no longer safe. However, Ashley Martson does have lupus — and it seems that’s who E! meant to report on today. Their original article has since been amended to reflect that. Mix-ups happen, of course, but this is a big one — and a weird one. How did someone at E! confuse Ashley for Jenelle? And more importantly, why didn’t the site publish a retraction once it became evident that a major mistake had been made? Several sites and countless social media accounts ran with the story, and for several hours, confusion reigned across the internet. And it seems Jenelle wasn’t the only victim here. Ashley was so upset by false reports that she checked into rehab that she eventually just deleted her Instagram account entirely. Granting an interview to E! may have been her way of clearing the air about what’s really going on — and the network appears to have dropped the ball and muddied the waters by dragging Jenelle into the mix. Of course, that last bit is just speculation on our part. We’re not trying to get dragged into this mess with any false reporting!

Paige Drummond, the 19-year old daughter of one of the world’s most famous chefs and homemakers, was arrested in mid-April. The details of this arrest are only just coming to light now. According to legal documents obtained by E! News and other outlets, the teenage child of Ree Drummond (also known as The Pioneer Woman) was taken into custody this spring for having and consuming alcohol. (How dare she, right?!?) Based on these papers, Paige was charged with possession of alcohol by a person under 21 years of age, as well as public intoxication. The records show she was charged and taken to jail in mid-April in her home state of Oklahoma. Paige is Reed’s second oldest child. According to a document filed by a district attorney, Paige “did appear in a drunken condition” in the city of Stillwater, Oklahoma. The crime is punishable by up to one year in jail and a fee of up to $500, although, come on, let’s face it: Clearly the 19-year old will not face punishments this harsh. Nor should she probably, in our opinion. There’s a little bit more to report, however: The teenager was found in possession of an open container of beer, to which the legal document claimed she “did unlawfully possess and consume a non-intoxicating beverage, containing more than one-half of one-percent of alcohol measured by weight, in a public place.” The daughter of this wildly popular food blogger and television host paid a total of $404.50 thus far in court fees for the alleged crimes. Ree sky-rocketed to fame through her Food Network program, but she has also released a number of recipe books and has earned universal acclaim throughout the food world. Ree also has a 21-year-old daughter Alex, who recently graduated from college, and two teenage sons, Bryce and Todd. She has frequently jokeed to her followers about how strict she is as a parent, saying, for instance, that she refuses to say the word “boyfriend” for her daughters’ significant others. We’d call that more odd than strict, but hey. To each her own, we suppose. Ree has not yet commented on the charges against her daughter. In addition to her widely successful television show, Ree’s culinary career includes a line of cookbooks and cookware, all of which spawned from a simple blog. She’s a role model to many followers. Columbia Pictures even acquired the film rights to her book From Black Heels to Tractor Wheels in March 2010, but hasn’t made any forward progression since that time. What do you think? Should Paige Drummond spend any time in jail?
Source: Daniel Zuchnik / Getty Janet Mock Signs Landmark Multi-Million Dollar Deal With Netflix Writer, director, producer and activist Janet Mock is making history thanks to a historic deal with Netflix. According to Variety , Mock signed a three-year, multimillion-dollar pact with the streaming company, giving them exclusive rights to her TV series and a first-look option on feature film projects. The deal makes Mock the first out transgender woman to call major creative shots at a big content company. As part of Mock’s agreement, she will serve as an executive producer and director on Ryan Murphy ‘s forthcoming Netflix series Hollywood. Murphy is the man behind such hit series as Glee, American Horror Story and Pose . Despite being apart of the Netflix brand, Mock will still be allowed to continue as a director and writer on Pose , which is an LGBTQ drama set in New York City’s ballroom scene. On top of all this, the Netflix deal will allow Mock to create programs that employ and highlight communities that have historically been marginalized by Hollywood — including women of color and trans people. “As someone who grew up in front of the TV screen, whether that was watching talk shows or family sitcoms or VHS films, I never thought that I would be embraced,” Mock said in a statement. “And more than embraced. Given not just a seat at the table but a table of my own making.” Mock says she hopes the deal “will be a huge signal boost, industrywide, to empower people and equip them to tell their own stories.” She’s currently interviewing creative executives for her yet-to-be-named production banner. Projects being developed include a college-set drama exploring a young trans woman’s life, a series about New Orleans after the abolishment of slavery and a reboot of a celebrated sitcom. Congrats to Janet and we’ll keep you posted as the projects go from development to screen. Until then, peep Janet’s reaction to the deal below! Today, @JanetMock makes history as the first Black trans woman to establish an overall deal with a major studio. “…there's potential to introduce hundreds of millions of viewers to trans people, and showing people who may not understand us, that we can tell our own stories.” pic.twitter.com/nXhaW0STvo — Strong Black Lead (@strongblacklead) June 19, 2019
