Ronnie Ortiz-Magro has seemingly come up with an explanation for why he allegedly assaulted Jen Harley several weeks ago. In a new social media post, the polarizing Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star appears to address his violent ex-girlfriend and he appears to justify his recent behavior by basically saying the following: Hey, you did it first! As loyal readers likely know at this point, Ronnie was arrested in early October after he reportedly threatened Harley with a knife. He supposedly did this after the two got into an explosive argument and right before he swiped the occasional couple’s young daughter, Ariana, out of Harley hands. According to the police report filed at the time, Ronnie then locked himself inside of a home he and Harley were renting, refusing to open the door when the police arrived. The authorities therefore had to knock said door down and tase Ronnie in order to take him into custody. The reality star now faces one full year in prison after he was hit with seven misdemeanors , which include the following charges: One count of domestic violence. One count of brandishing a weapon. One count of child endangerment. One count of resisting arrest. Another count of resisting arrest. One count of willful and unlawful criminal threats. One count of false imprisonment. Ronnie has said very little in the wake of this scandal, although insiders close to the muscle-bound father claim he was just protecting Ariana and that Harley was actually the drunk one placing the toddler in danger. Now, however, it certainly appears as if Ronnie has something to say. Something very immature to say, we should emphasize. “First I treat you how I want to be treated. But then I treat you how you treat me,” Ronnie wrote this week, managing to both confuse followers and stir up a great deal of concern as well. Is Ronnie really trying to justify his behavior by stating that Harley abused him first? We mean, that is sort of accurate. Harley was arrested last year for dragging Ortiz-Magro down the street by her car and then also hurled a glass ashtray at his head this past New Year’s Eve. She was never charged with any crime, however, and obviously didn’t serve any jail time as a result. But still: You did it first is the kind of defense made by a second-grader, and certainly not something that should ever be said in the wake of an assault charge. Ronnie, meanwhile, seemed far more at peace with everything not long before writing out the above quote, writing: At some point you have to let go of what you think should happen and live in what’s happening. Every moment matters. Wherever you are, be all there. Enjoy it all. The point of power’s always in the present moment. Amen, Ronnie. Now go leave Harley alone and just be there for your kid, dude.

Canad Exclusive Kyliegh Curran Interview At only 13, “Doctor Sleep” star Kyliegh Curran is set to become an instant Horror icon with her dazzling performance in the long-awaited, highly anticipated sequel to Stephen King’s quintessential classic “The Shining.” She plays adorably spunky wonder kid “Abra Stone” who “shines” like the all-grown-up-and-liquored-up “Danny Torrance” (Ewan McGregor) who’s desperate to piece together his shattered life years after his psychotic pop went axe-crazy at the Stanley Hotel. Together, they battle a sinister (and strangely snazzy) evil in mind-bending scenes carried entirely by our new fave 8th grader who gushed about her spooky debut in a cackle-filled interview at the very creepy and very haunted Highland Inn in midtown Atlanta. (But first, check out the trailer if you haven’t already) Did you see the original (“The Shining”)? “Yes, four times!” How did that go? Well, I watched the first time right before the call back, actually, and I remember (laughs) my mom said, ‘No! I am not going to watch that with you’ and I was hiding behind my dad’s back the whole time because the suspense was just so sickening because you are just waiting for the first jump scare — and then BANG! When the title card hits you, it’s like a drug. Then the second time was at a special showing, the third time was for fun with my best friend Jerry, and then the fourth time was at a movie theater with my family. Really? This movie is not funny (nervous laugh) “Well, in some moments it can be so scary that you have to laugh. If you don’t laugh, then you will cry.” This movie is old, though. It’s older than both of us. So, what’s the difference between watching it and knowing it’s old versus making the movie that you’re making now. The graphics… it’s kind of grainy . “Well I drew a lot from both, mostly Wendy’s character and young Jenny. And then a lot from the book — mostly from the book because this is a standalone film and it’s just the adaptation of the book, but yea, I drew a lot from Wendy’s character definitely and watching it really helped me out.” You said you auditioned. How did that go? Bring me to the beginning? “Well, I was fresh out of summer camp and I got this 10-page long, thick, thick, thick audition and I barely had any time to get it done. So, I wasn’t even off-book. We just taped it and sent it in and I was not very confident. I did not think I was gonna get a call back. Then a month later I got a call back! And I spent two days with my acting coach perfecting the character we drew as much as we could. But, it was a pretty big script so we did the best we could. We sent it in. I felt much better about it and a week later Mr. Mike, the director, calls my mom and says ‘Hey! We would love Kyleigh to come and read with Mr. Ewan.’ Oh my gosh, the nerves just started building up and building up and building up like a tower, and I was doing this weird twitch thing. Oh, it was so nerve-racking! But when I walked in to the room, all my nerves just melted away because the people were so kind and chill and just laid back. Ugh, they’re so amazing and I read with Mr. Ewan and I hoped that what I did was enough to book the role. And, I was sitting in school one day — my mom had been working in the same school as me — and she came knocking on the door and my teacher said ‘Hey, your mom’s at the door!’ Oh, I got so nervous. I said to myself ‘Ok, this is a yes or a no. This is very nerve-racking but don’t fret.’ And so I walked out and my mom said ‘Kylie, you’re gonna be in the movie!’ And we were jumping all over the place, screaming ‘Oh my gosh, yes!’ And my classmates were just pressed up against the window, like ‘What is she doing?’ And when I walked back I had messy hair, my face was all red, I was sweating and I couldn’t tell anyone. I felt so proud of myself in that moment. I was like ‘Finally, you waited for this for so long and your hard work has paid off. Yay!” For so long? You’re only 13. “Well, since I was 7. I’d been auditioning and auditioning and it’s really a test to your confidence and your patience and self-esteem when you keep getting ‘no,’ getting so close in an audition and then losing it. It’s really just kind of depressing. But, then, once you book something it’s like this wave of relief and you feel so much better.” I feel it. I’m excited. I’m about to go audition for something… I don’t know what it’s going to be. So, working with Mr. Ewan, how was that? “He’s amazing. He’s like a big teddy bear. He’s so great to talk to and he’s a great listener and I really enjoyed working with him. Watching him work is fascinating, how he just takes on his character so seamlessly. It’s amazing. And, he’s also very good at chess. I would not challenge him in chess.” What did you learn from him? What’s the #1 thing? “Well, his guidance was probably watching him, definitely mirroring how he acts, and building a relationship out of the characters really helped us build a relationship WITH our characters — how our chemistry worked.” What was the spookiest part about making this? Were you actually ever scared making this? “No. I was mostly just excited. I kept living in the moment, kept thinking ‘Wow, this is super exciting. This is so amazing.’ But I also had a little bit of a tether, so I was able to pull myself back down to my character and not completely freak out. But, yeah, it wasn’t very scary. It was more of an exciting experience.” It’s funny that you say that because this movie is — “Terrifying. Yeah.” Now, Stephen King. Did you read the book? “Yes.” And how did that go? “Oh it was disturbing. I had nightmares for days. But I was able to just leave it at the door, drop it, and just keep working. I’m really happy I did because now I’ve got a grip on how horribly evil the True Knot are and how Abra projects her energy against them, how she feels about them, and that really helped me with chemistry with everyone and how Abra is. So, I’m very happy that I read the book but I’m also very upset that I did (laughs).” If you’re going to do roles in the future, would you read the book or would you just go off of the script. “It depends on what the book is about. If it’s something super iconic, then I’ve gotta read the book. If it’s something that maybe it’s more a new movie and it’s slightly off a book, then I’d probably just go off the script so I don’t completely go off the book. And, if it’s a remake of an old movie, I probably wouldn’t watch the old movie so I wouldn’t copy or mirror the person I’m playing.” And as far as scary movies, you said your mom didn’t want to watch “The Shining” with you, so do you watch scary movies like that? “Yes! I love Jordan Peele! He’s a genius! I love Horror movies. I watched a lot of the old Stephen King ones. I watched “Carrie,” I watched “Pet Sematary,” “The Shining.” “Carrie” was, whew, that was freaky. “Pet Sematary,” the newer one was pretty disturbing.” You’re only 13 though… (Laughs). I couldn’t even watch these movies until I was 17. What else? Was that it? “There’s a lot of things I can’t even remember. Oh, It! I love It so much. My favorite Stephen King movies, those were amazing.” You’re not scared of clowns? “Nope. They’re funny. Well, I mean I did not appreciate Pennywise eating children. So that was definitely… I did not like that, no one would like that. But when he was shaking his head around I couldn’t stop thinking about my sisters or me shaking my head around in white face paint and a red nose like ‘bahhhh!’ It was too funny to me. But, it was also so disturbing.” You’re about to be a star. How does that feel? Your classmates know that you’re in the movie now. “Well, I’m homeschooled. But I never really thought about being a star or anything. I just thought ‘Wow this is a really cool experience. I’m in a movie. This is super cool. This is super exciting.” It hasn’t hit you yet? “No, not really. It hadn’t hit me that this was such a huge movie until August and now I’m super nervous, but being a star never really hit my head.” OK, I’ll check back in two weeks. “Well, we’ll see (laughs).” If you could use your power in real life, would you use it for good or bad? “For both. I would cast hexes and be a little vengeful, sometimes, towards my sister’s enemies and then towards my enemies maybe. And then for good, I would eradicate all single-use plastics and multiple things. Just grab them all in a ball and incinerate them.” — “Doctor Sleep” scares its way into theaters this weekend!
Lady Gaga is something that the world definitely doesn’t need anything more out of… Unfortunately, THAT FALL SHE HAD ON STAGE didn’t end worse for her…like if it was an actual injury she’d be in rehab, offline, finding ways to milk it, but the paralyzed Gaga wouldn’t have the same stage presence when doing the Christopher Reeves dance moves with her wheelchair… Obviously, I only wish Paralysis on horrible people, and I personally know people who have had awful accidents and now live that paralyzed life…and I think people like Gaga actually deserve it, while normal people not shoving their nonsense with their ugly faces down our throats don’t… She’s won too hard, manipulated too hard…it is evil…but instead of Karma getting her, she just keeps doing media, getting movie roles, being praised and it has all been a fucking scam all along…a money making scam…with her the well paid puppet…on some Kermit the Frog level of puppet but less interesting and with a bigger hand shoved up her ass….

This girl on Instagram posted the best mental breakdown images ever. Here is her caption: “Was in the longest deepest depressive episode in my life. Feel much better. Will stay in Tokyo for a while. Tried to control myself from panic attack but instead had hyperventilation when I was alone in my home and didn’t know who to call for help. I’ve been thinking probably in another dimension I already bye byed and this present version of me actually is not the same me. This is another dimension~ Depressive episode will always come back (especially the season changing, it’s too scary) and it’s a truth that I already accepted, don’t know when is the next time, and I believed the one I just overcame must not be the most serious one. Even just think about this makes me feel tired. But there’s nothing I can do. I always feel grateful that I can walk on the street like normal people. And it always comes back when I almost forgot how precious it is being functional like a normal human. And I haven’t felt this peaceful for months.” I guess this is evidence that social media is good for people’s souls. Everyone lost, trying to find angles, talking craziness about not knowing what is real or not, because they live in a fucking screen, getting naked for attention, going viral and now an expert or lifestyle influencer for all to get great life tips and tricks from…the dark instagram artist stripped down eating plane toilet paper for shock value…when if she was really a depressive..she wouldn’t be doing performance art, she’d off her useless, nippleless self…but they never do…they just keep up this ridiculousness and we watch cuz the no nipple thing is a new fetish since seeing those ANGELINA JOLIE PICS the other day…right.

Source: Joseph Marzullo/WENN.com / WENN A Weeds Revival Is In Development At Starz Showtime’s popular series Weeds ending in 2012 after eight seasons on the air, but now, the series is coming back for a revival on a different network: Starz. According to reports from Variety , Lionsgate Television announced recently that the series was in development during one of their earnings calls. Not only is the series making a return, Mary-Louise Parker is attached to the project and will reprise her role as Nancy Botwin along with serving as an executive producer if the show ends up receiving a series order. “As excited as we are about our new series, I want to remind everyone that ‘the old is also new,’ and we’re pleased to be bringing two of the most acclaimed shows in television history, Mad Men and Weeds , to the global syndication marketplace next year,” said Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer. “We’re thrilled to be back in business with series star and producer Mary Louise Parker on what we’re calling Weeds 4.20 , already in active development at Starz, as we prepare a comprehensive and integrated rollout for one of television’s most beloved properties.” Series creator Jenji Kohan –who is also known for her work on Orange Is the New Black– is not currently attached to the revival, but former Weeds writer and co-executive producer Victoria Morrow is acting as the creative lead. As for what kind of story will be happening within this new addition to the series, it’s been hinted that the show will start with a 10-year time jump from the original series finale–which means the story will pick up in an era where marijuana is legal in an increasing number of states. Though Weeds has a huge following and was beloved while it was on the air, a lot of the show’s biggest fans were disappointed by the last couple seasons of the show, so bringing it back for even more is an interesting decision. Guess we’ll have to wait for the new show to air for us to find out whether or not this revival is worth it. Will you be watching?!
Source: Mint Images / Getty White Restaurant Owner Only Sentenced 10 Years For Enslaving Black Man We’re warning you now, this story is going to REALLY piss you off. According to CNN , the manager of a South Carolina restaurant, Bobby Paul Edwards, has been sentenced to only ten years in prison for torturing and enslaving a mentally ill Black man named John Christopher Smith for, wait for it, SEVENTEEN YEARS! Smith began washing dishes at J and J Cafeteria in Conway, South Cack as a 12-year-old boy, when Edwards took over as manager, his life turned into a living hell. Edwards yelled racial epithets at Smith, beat him with a belt, hit him with pots and pans, and burned him with scalding hot tongs to “make him work faster”. In a WPDE interview, Smith says he was afraid to lose his job so he did whatever Smith told him, including being confined to a back room whenever his family would come into the restaurant. “I wanted to get out of there a long time ago. But I didn’t have nobody I could go to,” he said. He said he was denied access even to his own family. “I couldn’t go anywhere. I couldn’t see none of my family so that was that,” he said. “That’s the main basic thing I wanted to see was my mom come see me. I couldn’t see my mom…and I couldn’t talk to nobody.” Edwards is almost 40-years-old now and he would have never been freed from his slavery if not for a customer who called police after noticing a bevy of scars on his hands and body as he brought them their food. “It is almost inconceivable that instances of forced labor endure in this country to this day — a century and a half after the Emancipation Proclamation,” said Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband of the Civil Rights Division. “The Department of Justice will continue to investigate, prosecute, and convict human traffickers involved in forced labor, seeking justice on behalf of their victims.” In a press release, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Edwards was sentenced to a decade in prison FOR SLAVERY and forced to pay Mr. Smith $272,952.96 in restitution. Only. Ten. Years. FOR SLAVERY. We hate it here.

In a statement to BOSSIP and further reporting from the outlet, Grease realized that along with him getting fleeced, Harrison may have pulled this move on others as well. “Actually, my first thought was to get on some street s**t,” Grease tells BOSSIP . “With selling 60 million records, I knew the residuals weren’t coming back. I was seeing royalty statements for a couple of hundred dollars.” Keep up with Dame Grease on Instagram here . Salute to the new Snoop Dogg, the new Lou Rawls. — Photo: WENN
