Sons of Anarchy is a series that has featured a castration and the burning of a man character’s daughter alive, among other intense/violent/frightening developments. So it makes one wonder what creator Kurt Sutter could be referring to when he says a scene on the Sons of Anarchy Season 6 premiere will be especially “controversial.” Sons of Anarchy Season 6 Teaser “I know obviously that it would be somewhat controversial, but I feel like as much as I wouldn’t do something because it was controversial, I’m also not going to do something because it is,” Sutter told reporters last week at the Television Critics Association press tour. He added that this mysterious event will serve as the “catalyst for the third act of this morality play we’re doing” and that it “is not being done to be sensational.” Sons of Anarchy Season 6 premiere on September 10 and Sutter has said many times he plans for the show only last seven total seasons. One final tease for what’s to come? For what will apparently leave millions of folks buzzing? “It’s an organic story to our world; thematically, it’s the right fit.”
A Baltimore woman has been charged with second-degree murder after confessing that she gave her two grandchildren doses of methadone in order to help them fall asleep. Authorities say Towanda Reaves , 50, confessed that she rubbed this powerful pain killer on the gums of her one-year old grandson and two-year old granddaughter. The former died as a result of the incident. Woman Arrested for Giving Methadone to Grandkids Reaves reportedly turned over an empty bottle of the dangerous medicine – which is often given to heroin addicts to manage their cravings for opiates and ease the symptoms of withdrawal – to police. Neighbors, meanwhile, were stunned by the development and insisted that Reaves had no ill intentions. “She really took care of them. As far as I can see, she wasn’t a bad person,” one women told a local CBS affiliate. Reaves is due in court for a preliminary hearing on August 29.
Jennifer Aniston with no makeup looks as good, if not better, than Jennifer Aniston with makeup. The star proved this and then some this weekend. She appears fresh-faced in a photo posted on Instagram by her longtime hairstylist, Chris McMillan, who writes “Best #friends #no makeup #girl-time.” Take a look: McMillan, who’s known her for 20 years, recently joined the team at Aniston’s Living Proof hair care line and was the man behind the “Rachel” haircut in 1995. “I know that was Jen’s least favorite because I hear about it every time I style her hair,” said McMillan, who Jen plans to have do her hair for her wedding. “I like loose and natural hair because it goes against the formality of the dress,” she says. “Loose, like ‘I just got out of bed, maybe had a romp’ hair.” Jealous of Justin Theroux right now, guys?
For The Bachelorette star Desiree Hartsock, it all comes down to this. A season full of turmoil comes to a conclusion tonight on ABC, with so much still up in the air. Will Brooks be back? Will Des leave single and heartbroken? Will Chris and Drew find out about last week? Do they have any shot? Here’s a look at what The Bachelorette spoilers indicate about this evening’s finale, why they could be wrong, and why they’re probably not wrong … The Bachelorette Season Finale Preview (Part II) First, a brief rundown on last week’s drama: After two fabulous dates with Chris and Drew, Brooks CRUSHED Des with the revelation that he’s not ready. Awkwardness and tears ensued like never before on this show. Which is certainly saying something. As is the fact that, unheard of in The Bachelorette universe, there was no rose ceremony, no elimination … nothing. All three finalists are still technically in the mix … or are they? Throughout the spring and summer, spoilers have been spotty, but more or less consistent. The consensus has been that Brooks wins, or no one does. While there’s been plenty of chatter about how The Bachelorette spoilers were “wrong” in light of last week’s exit by Brooks, consider these points: There’s still the second half of the season finale to go. The spoilers aren’t inconsistent with any of this. The Bachelorette story editors are masters. We’re not insinuating that their breakup was staged, merely that Brooks may not be gone for good. Did he even leave Antigua after departing in the car? We have no idea yet, and he could quickly turn around and change his mind, proposing and living happily ever after with Desiree. It’s possible, even likely. Why? ABC’s episode synopsis says Desiree is ready to go home after being left “devastated, heartbroken and hopeless” on the edge of a dock. The 27-year-old bridal stylist will now be forced to decide if “she can move forward with the other two men or if her hope of finding love will be ruined.” “The final days of Desiree’s journey are filled with questions. If she does see promise in either Chris or Drew, will she introduce them to her family?” “Whether they meet her family or not, will Desiree’s brother, Nate, play a role in sabotaging her quest for love again? Desiree must look inward.” She must consider “if the love she has always wanted is right in front of her, or if her heartache over Brooks will crush her dreams of finding a soul mate.” Brooks Forester Dumps Desiree Hartsock If Brooks Forester was her top pick all along, as we’ve been inclined to believe, this synopsis suggests that the season finale is still all about Brooks. Des has already lamented that Chris and Drew are “amazing, unreal guys” who are in love her, but “I just can’t love them as much” and for her “it’s over.” If she simply carried on in Brooks’ absence and chose one of them, why the cliffhanger? And why the synopsis above that teases two hours of filler? Long story short, we’re likely in for two more heartbreaking splits tonight. The only question is whether Des leaves single or together with Brooks. If we’re wrong, and she merely gets engaged to Drew or Chris, that would easily go down as the biggest shocker in Bachelorette history, bar none. But we’re almost certain it’s Brooks or no one, and confident they’re engaged. That’s been the rumor all season long, and those supposedly in the know have not wavered – even if Des’ brother Nate says Reality Steve is wrong. Regarding that recent boast by Nate, here are some other scenarios we could see playing out, absent a proposal by Brooks and acceptance by Des: Brooks returns … with no ring. He apologizes and they agree to date, figure things out, etc. So he wins the Final Rose, but does not propose. Brooks returns … but Des begins to second-guess his intentions and seriousness after speaking with Chris, then REJECTS his proposal. Brooks returns … and gets engaged to Des … but not on the season finale itself. Maybe it happens on the After the Final Rose special? Perhaps a combination of 2 and 3? There could be a twist, but from everything we’ve heard, and seen, Desiree Hartsock and Brooks Forester are together. That’s what we’ve got for you heading into tonight. Now it’s time for your take!

Joe Jonas and his brothers appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen last night. And as part of the show’s Plead the Fifth game, the singer was asked to rank Selena Gomez , Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus from favorite to least favorite… and he actually did it! Handling the topic as democratically as possible, Joe put Demi first (because the two are “very cool now”) and placed Gomez last – but only because he hasn’t seen her in awhile.

The web has been abuzz with The Bachelorette spoilers this month, as fans Desiree Hartsock prepares for what could be a rocky lead-up to the finale. While in the past, The Bachelor or The Bachelorette spoilers have centered around which suitor the star would pick, this year looks a bit different. Heading into the August 5 season-ender, most of the uncertainty surrounding Desiree Hartsock relates to whether she ends up engaged or heartbroken . Brooks Forester has been the favorite all season long, both among those offering spoilers and on screen. Des has even admitted she’s in love. So what’s the big twist keeping this from being a foregone conclusion? Even the producers themselves are weighing in on the unusual nature of this particular “journey” for love, and hinting that it may not end smoothly. Misleading teases that don’t come to fruition or are underwhelming in the end are standard for this show, but you don’t often hear ones like this: “All I can say is that you will be shocked by how this ends.” Straight from show-runner Mike Fleiss himself, to EW . Yes, we realize that every single week promises THE MOST DRAMATIC ROSE CEREMONY EVER, so you can take that with a boulder of salt. That said, the shot-caller adds that Hartsock’s season’s ending “doesn’t make sense in some ways,” and “It comes out of left field in other ways.” The two-part finale is “the weirdest ending we’ve ever had, for sure,” and while he won’t say if the parties involves are happy, “it sure is interesting to watch.” The Bachelorette Season Finale Preview (Part I) All season long, The Bachelorette spoilers from Reality Steve, the thorn in Fless’ side for so many years, indicate that Desiree Hartsock does get engaged. However, many suspect that something pretty big happens in the next two episodes that no one will see coming, and that could render his spoilers moot. By all accounts, he says, Drew Kenney is eliminated in third place, setting up a Chris Siegfried vs. Brooks Forester finale one week from Monday. On the season finale, Brooks allegedly proposes and Des accepts, but even the king of The Bachelorette spoilers is spotty on these next two weeks. However it ends, we can pretty much guarantee that there will be unforeseen conflict, and that it involves Brooks. The question is how, and why? In its preview for this coming Monday, ABC indicates that as Desiree is on overnight dates with Drew and Chris, Brooks is in the U.S. with his family. This is unheard of on the show, as contestants typically have no time with family before or after hometown dates, which aired two episodes ago. Brooks, the network says in its press release, is “torn between his strong feelings for Desiree when he is with her and insecurities when he is not.” A heart-to-heart with his mother and sister help inspire his confidence and “with the reassurance he needs, [Brooks] boards the plane for Antigua.” The drama doesn’t end there, though, as Brooks Forester and Chris Harrison have their own heart-to-heart and “some shocking news is shared.” Desiree and Brooks later talk this through, which leads to “one of the most explosive, dramatic, emotional moments in Bachelorette history.” Intriguing, isn’t it?

The photo is actually a year old, exactly. She captioned the risque “Throwback Thursday” image, “My birthday last year. Who’s face am I gonna put my ass in this year? Lmao I’m kidding.” Are you though, Karrueche Tran ? A few hours later on Twitter, Chris Brown wrote her a simple message, “Happy bday @karrueche.” She responded to him by tweeting just a heart. The plot thickens! Earlier this year Karrueche told Rolling Out that dealing with the attention that came from breaking up with Chris Brown in 2012 “was very hard.” “The most challenging part about the attention was the negativity and the misconception from some people,” she said after he dumped her for Rihanna . “People only see you in blogs and they think they know everything about you. There are things that go public and everything that comes out is not the truth.” In this case, she communicated quite well directly with her fans, who she seems happy to remind about her relationship with the R&B superstar.

Forget what he thinks of Kim Kardashian , Kanye West is awesome. Earlier this week, the rapper dedicated a song to his baby mama during a concert in New York City, while also taking time to rant against the paparazzi and declare that he isn’t any kind of real celebrity. He also went off on the question of whether he would perform a sketch on tomorrow night’s Saturday Night Live season finale to “humanize” himself. The short answer? Probably not. “I ain’t here to apologize to no mother—-ers, man,” he says in the following video. “It ain’t about me humanizing myself. At what point did I become un-human where I had to turn myself back? Or maybe I was demonized. Or maybe I was treated inhumane and not human in that kind of situation.” Watch the diatribe in all its hilarious glory now: Kanye West SNL Rant
