Burger King Makes Offer to McDonald’s: Ready for the McWhopper?

Burger King has extended a temporary olive branch to its arch rival. Although no olives of any kind are involved. In full-page ads that ran in The New York Times and The Chicago Tribune, along with the commercial featured here, the fast food company reaches out to McDonald’s and asks if it wants to collaborate on an item. The McWhopper would be available on September 21, the International Day of Peace, and it would be offered in a special pop-up store in Atlanta that would constructed in a parking lot between a McDonald’s and a Burger King for that one day only. “Dear Burger King,” McDonald’s has responded to this ad on Facebook, adding: “Inspiration for a good cause… great idea. We love the intention but think our two brands could do something bigger to make a difference. We commit to raise awareness worldwide, perhaps you’ll join us in a meaningful global effort?”

Llama Gets Loose in North Carolina, Panicked Hilarity Ensues

Another llama just got loose in America. Six months after the country lost its collective mind over footage of llamas running wild in Arizona , a similar incident took place this week in North Carolina. According to the report featured here, a llama named Phantom broke free from his enclosure and hit the quiet streets of Buncombe County, flummoxing both local residents and reporters alike. Fortunately (for us), videographer John Boyle was on hand to capture the moment that Phantom moved from a golf course to a field, as we see him being chased by lurching and mostly helpless bystanders. Eventually, after THREE HOURS, the llama was apprehended and no person or animal was injured. That means it's okay to watch this footage and laugh. Enjoy!

Joe Giudice Accused Of Verbally Abusing Daughters

Earlier this month, cops were called in response to a screaming match between Joe and Gia Giudice . Those closest to the family were puzzled, as the 14-year-old aspiring singer is a self-described “daddy’s girl” who’s always gotten along well with her hot-tempered father. Now, sources are claiming that the sudden friction between the two has less to do with Gia’s teenage rebellion, and more to do with Joe cracking under the pressure of raising a family single-handedly, with a lengthy prison sentence looming. “He curses and yells at his daughters,” one insider tells Radar Online. “It’s just the way he speaks — and they are [often heard] crying because of it.” Some have even gone so far as to say that Joe verbally abuses his daughters , often shocking other family members with his behavior. “Audriana, the youngest, was in the bathtub and the water overflowed and came through the light fixtures in the kitchen,” says the source. “Teresa’s mother and father were there — and Joe noticed the water and started swearing and cursing like a crazy person.” “He went flying up the stairs yelling, ‘Why isn’t Audriana monitored?’ He was cursing out Gia, who was supposed to be watching Audriana, and he yelled at Audriana as well.” “Teresa’s mother ran up and grabbed Audriana and screamed, ‘She’s only a baby. She’s only a baby!’ And Teresa’s dad scolded Joe and said, ‘I never swore or yelled like that in front of my children in my life.’” Some insiders claim that part of the problem is that the girls have picked up lots of bad habits due to a lack of supervision, as Joe is often out romancing other women while his wife is incarcerated. Others say Giudice realizes that his 41-month prison sentence is fast approaching (He’ll turn himself in shortly after Teresa is released later this year.) and the pressure is causing him to crack. Whatever the case, we’re sure the girls will be happy to have their mother back.

Duggar Family: Living in Seclusion, Struggling to Forgive Josh, Source Says

Back in May, the Josh Duggar molestation scandal rocked the world of reality television by shattering the image of one of its most beloved families. The 19 Kids and Counting clan was still reeling from the shock of that scandal when it was revealed this week that Josh cheated on his wife  with the help of the adultery-facilitating website, Ashley Madison.  Parents Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar have issued a statement addressing Josh’s latest indiscretions, but insiders say that may be the last we’ll hear from the family for a very long time: “We’re all hunkered down over here,” a family insider tells People magazine. “It’s just a mess, it’s a whole mess. We don’t even know what the truth is anymore. It’s insane.” “I would assume [Josh] feels like his life is ruined. It will be such a steep and practically impossible climb to come back from this.” The insider adds that the family is living in complete isolation at their compound in Arkansas, afraid to even go outside for fear of being photographed by lurking paparazzi. And of course, things are rather awkward at Casa de Duggar these days, as the family is reportedly stunned by Josh’s behavior: “It’s like he’s a completely different person from who they thought he was,” says the source. “They’re still trying to reconcile all that they know is good about Josh, whom they will always love and adore, with what they’ve learned now.” Despite all of this, insiders say Anna Duggar will not even consider divorcing Josh . We wonder if she’ll be singing a different tune once the inevitable D.C.-area mistresses start coming forward.  View Slideshow: Josh and Anna Duggar Photos: Through the Years

Control Freaks: Tyga Battling Kris Jenner For Control Of Reality TV “Reveal” Of Relationship With Barely-Legal Kylie

Tyga And Kris Jenner Fight Over Reality TV Reveal Of Relationship With Kylie Welp, the time has come . No pun intended… Via RadarOnline Keeping up with the Kardashians reality star Kylie Jenner‘s worst kept secret is about to be exposed! According to a source close to the family, now that she is 18 she and boyfriend Tyga are ready to go public in a big way, and momager Kris Jenner wants to be the one to break it! After months of coy hints, “Kylie and Tyga are deciding on where and when to officially confirm that they are actually together,” a Kardashian insider tells Radar exclusively. “Tyga wants to do it on his show Kingin’ With Tyga because the ratings are not doing so great,” says the source. “But Kris has other ideas in mind. She wants to confirm their relationship by making it an entire episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians.” Gotta think MTV2 would LOVE to have a piece of THIS action. The source tells Radar, “Kris has never really had an episode yet that focuses primarily on Kylie, but that is all about to change because she knows now how there are so many fans that only care about what is going on with Kylie now.” “The producers for KUWTK want to spin the episode into a ‘friends become lovers’ sort of thing even though they know that people already believe that Kylie and Tyga were together all along,” the insider says.

Kim Richards: MISSING Following Wedding Relapse!

Earlier today, we reported that Kim Richards might be facing jail time after ditching rehab and getting drunk at her daughter’s wedding. Now, it looks as though Kim has taken a “you’ll have to catch me first” approach to her problems by going fully MIA, presumably somewhere in Mexico. An insider tells Radar Online that Richards “completely disappeared” after the wedding and none of her family has been able to get in touch with her. “Kim has not returned to rehab after the wedding,” the source says. “She will not answer anyone’s calls and is missing in action. Everyone is really worried but no one knows where she is.” We can understand why Kim would’ve wanted to keep a low profile for a couple days (After all, she acted like such a drunken idiot at the party that her sober coach quit on the spot, and her daughter won’t talk to her.), but now that almost a week has passed, there may be cause for concern. In fact, things have gotten so bad that Kim’s bosses can’t even get a hold of her to fire her! “Things do not look good for her returning to the show now,” says the source. “Producers want to give her the ultimatum that if she doesn’t return to rehab by the end of this week that it’s over, but they have not been able to reach her.” Talk of Richards being fired from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been circulating for months, and she no doubt knew she was on the chopping block, so she may be on to something with this whole “disappear in a foreign country” to avoid getting canned bit. Hey, she may even get a spinoff – The Real Housewife Who Sleeps on the Beach in Cabo! View Slideshow: 18 Reality Stars Who Need to Check into Rehab

Kim Kardashian vs. Rob Kardashian Feud Heats Up: "She’s Dead to Him," Source Says

As you’ve probably heard by now, Rob Kardashian compared his sister Kim to ” the b-tch from Gone Girl ” in an alarming Instagram post that immediately went viral last week. The post still has not been deleted, and this is clearly not just a case of Rob making fun of Kim’s blonde hair like the rest of the world.  He chose to liken his sister to a perfect-on-the-surface narcissistic psychopath for a reason. There’s been bad blood between these two for years, and according to insiders, it’s only getting worse. Family friends say things came to a head when Rob bailed on Kim’s wedding back in May. She took it as a personal affront; he felt that the whole star-studded international event was just the latest sideshow in the Kardashian circus, and he blamed her for turning his family’s private life into a public spectacle. “They really have not been on speaking terms since the wedding incident,” a source tells Us Weekly.  The insider adds that “the family has done everything they can to try and soothe tensions between Rob and Kim,” but the siblings have made no progress in mending their relationship. The source claims that when Rob turned 28 last week, he hosted a small gathering and invited all of his siblings – except for Kim.  “It is not Kim that has issues with Rob, it is Rob that has a ton of issues with Kim,” says the source. “Rob absolutely loathes Kim. He feels that she has destroyed his family and he doesn’t even know her anymore…She is dead to him.” Wow. So there’s something to be thankful for: You may not have Kardashian money, but at least when you feud with one of your siblings, you don’t have to see their face (and every other part of them) all over the Internet every day.

So Sad: Family Reportedly Gathering At Atlanta Hospital To Say Final Goodbyes To Bobbi Kristina

Family Reportedly Saying Goodbye To Bobbi Kristina Things are looking especially grim for Bobbi Kristina who remains in a medically induced coma after being found face down in a bath tub Saturday. As previously reported her brain function has allegedly continued to diminish and now a new report claims that her family is gathering to say their final goodbyes. People Magazine reports: It wasn’t the news that Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family wanted to hear. On Wednesday, four days after the 21-year-old was found unresponsive in her home, a doctor told her family that nothing more could be done. “Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye,” says a family member. The news was especially devastating to her father, Bobby Brown. “Bobby has been crying nonstop since yesterday,” says the source. “We are grieving.” A second family member went by the hospital overnight to say goodbye – and admits that the devastating news is hard to believe. “If you saw her, you’d think she was just sleeping,” says the source. But even with the bleakest prognosis, the family is still clinging to some hope. “It’s sinking in that this is it,” says the second family member, “but we’re all still praying that God will intervene and heal her body.” This latest bit of news is so disheartening; continue to pray for her and her family.

Jessa Duggar Joins Pro-Life Rally in Arkansas, Takes "Stand For the Life of the Unborn"

Voicing her religious and political views loud and clear, Jessa Duggar took to her State Capitol in Little Rock, Ark., to fight for what she believes is right. The 19 Kids and Counting cast member showed support for pro-life issues, participating in the March for Life, a peaceful demonstration that protests abortion. “Headed to Little Rock right now,” she wrote on Instagram. “Join us at our state Capitol at 2 pm, and together let us take a stand for the life of the unborn. ❤” While Jessa didn’t reveal which family members joined her at the event, the TLC star did share pics from the scene including one poster she approved of. “God loves life every life from beginning to end,” one sign read. Whether he was present or not, older brother Josh Duggar, who moved to D.C. to work as a political activist, would surely approve of her endeavors. As would parents Jim Bob and Michelle, whose outspoken views have won them millions of fans but just as many critics saying the Duggar family is a cult . The Duggars’ aren’t just conservative in thinking, they’re at the forefront of the political battles against abortion and same sex marriage, and unabashedly so. In the past year, Michelle Duggar has wielded her considerable political clout to change policies geared toward making life easier for gay and lesbian citizens. She fought a law passed to protect gays from discriminatory employment and housing laws, and in the process, critics accused her of hate speech. On the flip side, Duggar supporters believe their rights to freedom of religion and speech are unfairly under attack by those who happen to disagree. In any case, Jessa and her equally if not more outspoken husband Ben Seewald show zero signs of breaking free of the family mold in this regard. Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald Photos 1. Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald: In Love Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald in one of their many sweet Instagram moments. Her shirt sums it all up, really.

John Sundahl, Britney Spears’ Ex-Boyfriend, Killed By Taliban in Afghanistan

John Sundahl, a pilot and former boyfriend of Britney Spears, was tragically killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan after he was shot down flying a helicopter. John, 44, had been working for the last few months as a private contractor ferrying officials across the war-torn country. Sundahl was killed outside Kabul. His brother Karl said: “It’s heartbreaking. John went there to try to repair the country. He was trying to help people, he [often said] the country was in chaos.” Karl Sundahl told the Mirror (UK) that the U.S. State Department informed John’s family of his death and that the Taliban was responsible for the attack. Britney Spears, now 33, dated Sundahl in 2007 after they met at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in L.A. Their romance didn’t last, but their bond did. At one point the pair were rumored to be engaged, though the singer’s rep denied this. What can’t be denied is that he tried to help her quit drinking. John recalled telling her she would die unless she got this under control. He said in an ­interview: “I told her, ‘If you fall off the wagon I don’t think you’ll live. I told her, ‘If you don’t want to get sober for yourself, do it for your kids.'” As a result, “She truly wants to stop what she’s doing, and she has changed her life in another direction. She doesn’t get drunk every night and pass out.” Sundahl helping her through her darkest time is not something she forgot, especially after the meltdown in which Britney Spears shaved her head . The pop superstar is reportedly taking his passing quite hard, too. It had a profound affect on the mother of Jayden James, 8, and Sean Preston, 9. Says a friend: “She is devastated. Britney thought he was a lovely man.” “John was still good friends with Britney, he talked to her regularly,” says the source. “They dated for a while but they always kept in touch afterwards.” Britney, who is in the midst of two-year stint with her Piece of Me show at Planet Hollywood in Vegas, is now dating TV writer and producer Charlie Ebersol . She recently, and abruptly, broke up with previous boyfriend David Lucado when she discovered he cheated on her, a claim he has denied in vain. Here’s an anthology of Britney’s long, turbulent romantic history: 19 Boyfriends of Britney Spears 1. Reg Jones Yes, the man who took Britney’s v-card was a high school love named Reg Jones.
