Chrissy Teigen: Check Out the Butt Imprint from My Spray Tan!

Chrissy Teigen is the consummate over-sharer, but unlike our distant friends on Facebook, we kinda love her for it. Yesterday, the model posted a pic of the aftermath of a recent spray tan, and the results aren’t pretty. In her quest to achieve a sun-kissed complexion, Teigen wound up with some orangey-stained sheets outlining her figure. And you can totally see her butt. Heh-heh-heh.  (Doing best Beavis & Butthead impression.) “Spray tan diaries,” she captioned the pic. Man, it looks like that stuff gets in every crevice. The new mom also shared TMI spray tan woes of a different kind on Twitter.  “Just spray tanned around my breast pump outline. the logistical challenges of a healthy beach glow while boobing are incredible,” she tweeted. Yeah, I totally hate that. Teigen and husband John Legend welcomed their first child, Luna Simone , last month. Here’s the first pic she shared of her daughter: About a week after Luna was born, the new parents stepped out for a bite to eat and caught shade on Twitter from the mommy mob. “The spotlight pull be strong,” wrote one user. “One week. Who wants to leave a one week old baby to go to a bar?”   But Teigen doesn’t stand for such crap. She retweeted many of their angry tweets and wrote, “I went to dinner. People are pissed. Good morning!” Get ’em, Chrissy. And keep us updated on your tan. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Hosts Posh Baby Shower for Chrissy Teigen: PHOTOS

Justin Bieber Gets FACE TATTOO, Fans Cry

When your blessed with a face as beautiful as Justin Bieber’s, why on earth would you want to mark it up with a self-inflicted, permanent scar? Your face is your money maker, Justin. Don’t you know that? No matter, because the singer just carved a new tattoo into his mug, just under his left eye. Luckily, it’s a small piece of art, unlike the monstrous face tat Zayn Malik  showed off earlier this year (luckily, it wasn’t permanent). The Biebs reportedly got matching tattoos of a tiny cross with his good friend Joe Termini while they were in New York City earlier this week. Justin posted a dark, grainy selfie to Instagram in which you can see the new ink, although to me it looks more like a grain of wild rice. Not all his fans were thrilled with the new addition. “@justinbieber swear to god kid if you tattoo more of your beautiful face I quit,” wrote one fan. “This better be the only face tattoo you’ll ever get @justinbieber,” warned another. Beliebers recently breathed a sigh of relief after their idol got rid of his terribly  unpopular dreadlocks , and now they’ve got this to deal with. However, the cross tattoo could be a sign that the pop star is in the midst of a religious awakening. Earlier this week, he shared a photo of a celestial nature to Instagram and gave a shout out to his homey God . “I am so lucky to share these moments with you, I am so glad God is able to move even when people are blind to it,” he wrote in the caption. “I am the one on that stage but I am nothing without a light shining through,” he continued. “I’m such an average, ordinary person that doesn’t deserve the praise. I believe it belongs to my God! Thank you God for showing up when we need you the most!” Justin also sports a cross tattoo on his chest and one of Jesus on his left calf.

Azealia Banks On Lemonade: “Beyonce Hopped On The Blackness Trend After Avoiding Her Blackness For Years And Made It About Herself”

Azealia Banks Bashes Beyonce’s “Lemonade” You know that joke about Azealia Banks growing up to be Khia ? Well…. The controversial rapper got into it with author Ta-Nehisi Coates about the importance of Beyonce’s “Lemonade.” While Ta-Nehisi thought “Lemonade” was an inspiring body of work, Azealia thought differently. Twitter Fingers said Bey’s album was just the singer trying to “hop on the blackness trend” and making it about herself…after years of “avoiding her blackness.” I disagree. Beyonce is only trying to capitalize on a national conversation and make herself the star of it. https://t.co/VTPs67SRWJ — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 @tanehisicoates Don't think for a second that beyonce was intelligent enough to come up with any of those ideas on her own. — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 @tanehisicoates She's not an artist, she's a poacher. she takes food out of darker skinned women's mouths & pretends to be inspired. — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 @tanehisicoates Beyonce spent her entire career purposefully avoiding “blackness” but now that it's a trend she's trying to capitalize on it — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 AB also went on to say Bey never talked politics in an effort to gain white acceptance. ITS NOT. because its coming from an entertainer. she's capitalizing on a national convo, w/o actually having 2 https://t.co/7me7EFdFBx — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 @DVNLVZU and now that black women's suffering is a a national conversation, she wants to hop on it and make our suffering “trendy”. — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 @DVNLVZU she needs to stay under Jay-z's foot where she belongs, and stay out of the creative woman's way. — BRUJA DEL BLOQUE (@AZEALIABANKS) May 1, 2016 Does Azealia have a point or is she just being the Twitter troll she’s always been?

Prince 911 Call: Disturbing Audio Released

Today, music legend and eccentric pop culture icon Prince died at age 57 . While police are still investigating the cause of his death, TMZ has obtained the audio recording of the 911 call made after he was found dead at his Paisley Park compound in his native Minnesota. In the emergency dispatch call, an operator is heard confirming a “male down, not breathing” at Prince's address. According to TMZ, the singer was found unconscious in an elevator in his home. Paramedics attempted CPR, but were unable to revive him. Prince was pronounced dead on the scene at 10:07 a.m., central time. Last week, after a concert in Atlanta, the singer was rushed to the hospital after his plane made an emergency landing in Illinois. Reps for Prince informed media he was battling a bad case of the flu, and that he had been treated and was back on the plane bound for home within three hours.  The “Purple Rain” megastar performed a concert the next day and assured fans he was fine. Now, fans are wondering if there may have been a deeper issue that the notoriously private celebrity was hiding. Some have speculated that he knew his death was pending, as he began penning his memoirs last month and made a eerie comment during a party at Paisley Park last weekend. “Wait a few days before you waste any prayers,” he told attendees.   Listen to the 911 call below:

Matt Fink: Prince Band Mate Says Singer Was Sicker Than We Thought

Today, fans are mourning the shocking death of Prince , the visionary music legend who brought us unforgettable hits like “Kiss,” “1999” and “When Doves Cry.” The singer was found dead in his Minnesota home, just one week after his plane made an emergency landing to treat what representatives later said was the flu . However, Matt Fink, who played keyboards in Prince’s band The Revolution in the 80s, tells Radar Online that he believes Prince had more health problems than he had let on. “I can’t believe it was flu related,” Fink said, referring to last week’s incident. “At that time, I speculated it was not good,” he added. “But I was glad he was well. I assumed he was fine, that he was healing.” View Slideshow: Prince: Stars React to the Death of Iconic Singer In 2009, Prince revealed that he had been born with epilepsy and suffered seizures when he was a child. However, Fink said his friend never mentioned it to him. “He never discussed it. He brought that up much later after the band.” Fink said Prince had disclosed a separate health condition, but didn’t reveal any details about it. “He told me he had a heart murmur as well,” he claimed. “But we never discussed it.” “We’re in major shock right now,” he concluded. “It’s very difficult to express how we (the members of the band) feel. It’s a tough time.” At the time of this writing, the cause of death for the artist is still unknown. View Slideshow: Prince: Remembering the Music Legend’s Life In Photos

Prince: Suffered Drug Overdose Days Before Death

In a troubling report released by TMZ, sources claim that Prince had been treated for a drug overdose just six days before his untimely death this morning. As we reported last week, the singer had been rushed to the hospital following an emergency plane landing. He was reportedly feeling unwell while flying home after a concert in Atlanta. A representative for Prince claimed the music icon had been battling the flu for weeks, but was doing fine after doctors treated him for symptoms. Multiple sources now say the artist was administered a “save shot,” which is typically given to counter the effects of opiate drugs such as heroin, oxycontin or morphine. At the time, doctors had advised Prince to remain in the hospital for 24 hours, but he ultimately decided to leave when he couldn’t secure a private room at the facility, according to the site. View Slideshow: Prince: Remembering the Music Legend’s Life In Photos He was released three hours later and flew home, which was just a 48-minute flight away. Sources reported that when Prince left the hospital, he “was not doing well.” Prince was found dead in his Minnesota home this morning. Paramedics performed CPR, but were unable to revive him. Earlier today, Prince’s former band mate Matt Fink confessed that he thought the flu excuse was bogus, and that there may have been an underlying health problem we didn’t know about. The cause of death is currently being investigated. View Slideshow: Prince: Stars React to the Death of Iconic Singer
