Ariana Grande: Headed to Rehab Following Pete Davidson Split?

Posted on October 31, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If you’re an Ariana Grande fan, we probably don’t need to tell you the singer has really been put through the wringer emotionally in recent weeks. And of course, her recent struggles have all been made more difficult by the fact that they’ve played out on a public stage. Obviously, Ariana is still reeling from her breakup with Pete Davidson , but that’s just the latest in a string of traumas that have tested the singer’s strength of spirit. Just last month, Grande’s most recent ex, Mac Miller, passed away following an apparent drug overdose. And of course, all of this happened just 16 months after the bombing at an Ariana concert in Manchester that claimed the lives of 23 victims, many of them fans of Grande’s. After enduring so much in a short period of time, it should come as no surprise that Ariana is reportedly desperate for a break from the spotlight. Grande took a hiatus from social media recently, but it seems she recently decided that she needs a more long-term break in order to really focus on healing. A world tour in support of Ariana’s latest album begins in March, and it seems that in order to ensure that she’s emotionally prepared for such an undertaking, Grande has decided to explore the possibility of in-patient treatment. “It’s a miracle she’s still holding it together after everything she’s seen,” a source close to the singer tells Heat magazine. “A lot of people think it would be good for her to take a break and get professional help.” The source goes on to say that while Ariana has put on a brave face for her fans, she’s also been struggling like never before in recent weeks, and her loved ones have encouraged her to give rehab a try: “On the outside, it may seem like she’s OK, but deep down, she’s vulnerable,” says the insider. Obviously, until Ariana finds out for herself, no one will know if stepping away from the spotlight and focusing on her own healing process is the right move — but at this point, those closest to the singer are encouraging her to try any method that might prove effective. “Everyone is rooting” for Ariana, says the source. “The main thing that Ariana needs to know is that she’s loved.” View Slideshow: Pete Davidson Accused of Taunting Mac Miller With Ariana Grande Pics; Pop Star REELING From Tragedy & Split [UPDATED]

Kris Jenner Fights to Stop Keeping Up With The Kardashians Cancelation

Posted on October 31, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

15 seasons isn’t enough for Kris Jenner. She wants 25 or more. But she may be in for a rude awakening, because Keeping Up With The Kardashians ‘ ratings have been getting stomped . Is the show that made her family a household name on its last leg? Or will it go on forever? RadarOnline   reports that Kris is prepared to fight for Keeping Up With The Kardashians to continue. “Kris says all the time she wants the show to go on for ten more seasons,” an insider reports. Can you imagine? “And,” the source continues. “If she had her way she’d do the show until she dies.” Bold of this insider to imply that Kris Jenner is capable of dying. Kris is eternal. Kris is reportedly looking to secure a new contract that guarantees multiple seasons. In the mean time, however, it looks like her brood has grown too successful for the show that made them stars. “Kim is already moving on to produce new projects of her own,” the insider notes. Kim has her own products, her video game from a few years ago was massively lucrative. She’s a model and a mogul. “And,” the source says. “The rest of the girls have terrific footholds in modeling and merchandising.” Kylie Jenner is poised to become a billionaire, but none of Kris’ daughters are hurting for cash. And it doesn’t look like they care about KUWTK as much as they once did. “Of the family,” the insider reports. “Only Kris is for keeping the show on the air the #1 priority.” Well, all of her children except for Kendall are parents, now. Priorities change. “And the network has already given up on their once lucrative business of creating spinoffs of the show,” the source adds. Yeah. No more Kocktails with Khloe for us. “Even Ryan Seacrest, who is still as involved as he can be, has other things he’s working on” “and leaves Kim to her own devices in terms of keeping the show relevant” We would joke that Ryan Seacrest is too busy dealing with the serious accusations of sexual assault from his former stylist. The woman had multiple witnesses to her allegations. But it doesn’t look like Seacrest is too bothered. Like too many others, his career seems unscathed by the horrible #MeToo story about him. Unfortunately, Kris has felt discouraged by some of those closest to her. “It doesn’t help that pretty much the only advice people give Kris about all this,” the insider begins. The source continues: “Is that she — and the kids — should quit ‘KUWTK’ before they get fired!” It’s understandable that friends would suggest something like this. Better to cancel a show with dignity, they reason, than to end up getting canceled. But the insider says: “That’s just not where her heart is at all!” It’s true that Season 15’s ratings weren’t as good as Season 14’s, and were certainly worse than what KUWTK saw years ago. But isn’t part of that just a result of people changing how they watch television? The Kardashians still rake in a sizable share of the market — enough that Kris can probably talk her way into renewal for years to come. Maybe her friends are right. Maybe she should quit with her head held high before, one day, E! makes that choice for her. But we kind of hope that she doesn’t. We’d miss the show. And so would a lot of people.

Demi Lovato Will Remain In Rehab For a Very Long Time

Posted on October 31, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s been three months since Demi Lovato suffered an overdose that nearly claimed her life. After spending over a week in the hospital detoxing and recovering from the physical damage she had endured, Demi relocated to a treatment facility in Arizona. Lovato isn’t taking any chances this around, spending most of her time in Arizona, but also taking regular trips to Chicago, where she consults with the team of specialists who helped her get sober the first time around. ( Lovato celebrated six years of sobriety just prior to her most recent relapse.) While the process is reportedly going as well as can be expected, those who know the singer best say she’ll be remaining in treatment for quite some time, just to be safe. In fact, fans shouldn’t expect to see Demi making any public appearances prior to 2019. “Demi is taking her sobriety extremely serious, and knows she has a long road ahead of her,” a source close to the situation tells Entertainment Tonight. “At the end of the day, Demi is doing this for herself. “She has to stay sober for her, but every time she has family or friends visit her it reminds her of all the other important people in her life that she needs to fight for as well.” On Maria Menounos’ podcast this week Lovato’s mother, Dianna De La Garza, revealed that Demi is 90 days sober and fully committed to the lifelong work of recovery. “I couldn’t be more thankful or more proud of her because addiction being a disease, it’s work,” she said of Lovato’s road to recovery. “It’s not easy. There are no shortcuts.” Insiders say Lovato looks back on her sober years as the happiest time of her life, and she’s determined to get back there. “Demi is thankful she’s still alive and is doing whatever she can to never get to that point again,” says one source. It certainly won’t be easy, but it sounds like Demi is very much up to the task. We wish her all the best as she continues in her recovery process.

Kim Kardashian Prays for Her Photographer Injured in Serious Car Crash

Posted on October 30, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Mom-shamers like to slam Kim Kardashian for posing nude , but she poses with a purpose, and usually with a professional photographer. Tragically, Kim’s photographer, Marcus Hyde, has been in a truly horrific car accident. Kim shared the news and is asking fans to pray for his recovery. On Tuesday, Kim Kardashian tweeted out the news about Marcus Hyde’s terrible accident. “Please pray for my friend @MarcusHyde,” Kim tweeted. She also included an image, appearing to show the two of them, with words imposed over it. “I’m trying to find the perfect picture but I don’t want to share them,” Kim writes. Kim explains her reluctance: “We were saving these for our book.” Clearly, she doesn’t want to signal that there’s no hope by sharing the photo. She’d rather believe he’ll recover. Her comments go on, now directly addressing Marcus. “Angels are surrounding you,” Kim writes. She continues: “I’m praying so hard for you.” “Please be ok,” she begs. Kim’s message concludes: “Please come back @marcushyde.” This is truly heartbreaking. Marcus Hyde is a photographer known for his work with tasteful, artistic nudity. He is especially famous for his work with Kim Kardashian and her sisters, including Khloe and Kendall. TMZ reports that Marcus’ terrible accident took place Monday morning, October 29. He was on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu when he apparently lost control of his vehicle. Marcus went over an embankment. From the looks of things, the Mercedes AMG CLS that he was driving has been totaled. He himself was airlifted to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. He had a female passenger in the vehicle at the time. TMZ reports that, per their sources, this unidentified woman was also hospitalized. We don’t know Marcus’ exact condition — but he reportedly suffered a critical head injury. Sources also say that Marcus Hyde was suffering seizures as a result of the crash and the head injury. That is devastatingly serious. Marcus has traveled the globe with Kim and with Kanye. He has been the man behind the camera for some of her most famous photos. He was also the photographer for the Kardashian (and Jenner) Calvin Klein photos late last year. This man’s artistic vision has been a part of Kim’s brand for a long time. Kim is clearly reeling from this news. It’s no wonder that she’s asking fans for prayers. As we mentioned, the fact that she’s unwilling to release photos of the two of them means that she’s clinging to hope. She wants Marcus to survive, recover, and then release that book with her. If she were to release a photo now, it would feel like she was giving up on him. We absolutely understand the way that she is thinking. We here at THG sincerely hope that Marcus Hyde and his passenger make a full and speedy recovery from this horrific ordeal. We also hope that his friends and loved ones — Kim included — can find comfort and hope while they wait for news. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Goes Nude, Gets Candid About Sex

Whitey Bulger, Notorious Mobster, Found Dead in Prison

Posted on October 30, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Whitey Bulger, one of the most notorious gangsters in American history, was found dead at 8:20 a.m. on Tuesday inside U.S. Penitentiary Hazelton in West Virginia. He was 89 years old. According to TMZ and other outlets, Bulger had only just been moved to this facility, after having been spending his life sentence behind bars in Florida. He was transferred briefly to Oklahoma City last week and had only just recently arrived in Hazelton shortly before his murder. Bulger had manage to evade federal authorities for more than 16 years prior to his arrest in June 2011. He was found guilty in 2013 for his role in 11 murders, although it is believed he took part in many more than that. In November of that same year, Bulger was sentenced to two life terms plus five years for his role as architect of a criminal enterprise that, in the words of a federal judge, committed “unfathomable” acts that terrorized a city. Overall, Bulger was found guilty at the time on 31 counts, including racketeering, extortion, money laundering, drug dealing and weapons possession. “The testimony of human suffering that you and your associates inflicted on others was at times agonizing to hear and painful to watch,” US District Court Judge Denise Casper said at the crime boss’ sentencing, adding: “At times, I wish we were watching a movie, that what we were hearing was not real. “But as the families of victims know all too well, it’s not a movie.” Bulger’s life was documented on the big screen on multiple occasions, however. Most famously, Johnny Depp portrayed Bulger himself in the 2015 film Black Mass. It’s also widely assumed that Jack Nicholson’s character in The Departed was based on Bulger. Johnny Depp is pictured here as Whitey Bulger. Details regarding Bulger’s death remain almost entirely unknown at this time. A union official for correctional officers at the high-security prison told WV News there was a homicide at the facility, yet couldn’t say whether it was Bulger. Hank Brennan, Bulger’s lawyer, told BuzzFeed News, he couldn’t “confirm or deny it at this point.” “The Federal Bureau of Investigation was notified and an investigation has been initiated. No staff or other inmates were injured, and at no time was the public in danger,” the Bureau of Prisons said in a statement. An original photo released by the FBI in 1984 depicts James “Whitey” Bulger. In 2016, auctioned items seized from Bulger’s Santa Monica, California, apartment raised almost $110,000 to compensate victims’ families. He was born on September 3, 1929, in Dorchester, Massachusetts. Bulger had a son with a waitress and former model named Lindsey Cyr, but he died at the age of six from Reye syndrome after having an allergic reaction to an aspirin injection in 1973. We hope he does not rest in any kind of peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

Kailyn Lowry: Is She REALLY Back Together With Chris Lopez?!

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Of all the current and former stars of the Teen Mom franchise, it's possible that no one has been as straightforward and candid with their fans as Kailyn Lowry. On Twitter, in multiple bestselling memoirs, and on her wildly popular podcast, Lowry frequently “goes there” in terms of opening up about her personal life. Which may be why so many of her fans are confused by Kail's recent secrecy about her love life. Of course, if Lowry is really back together with Chris Lopez , as has been rumored in recent weeks, she has good reason to keep that information to herself. Take a look: 1. Working It Out It’s been a rocky road for Kail and Chris, but these days, it seems Lux’s parents may have decided to give their relationship another chance. 2. Dark Days Kail and Chris are in a good place these days, but that’s a fairly recent development. 3. Reformed Bad Dad Just a few months ago, Kail was publicly chastising Chris for being an “Instagram dad” — posting photos on social media in order to give the false impression that he actually spends time with his son. 4. A Bad Breakup She even revealed to fans that her first breakup with Lopez was so painful that it left her with PTSD. 5. So Many Ways In her most recent memoir, Kailyn revealed that she was “hurt in so many ways” by her breakup with Lopez. 6. Scary Stuff “I’ve had my bedroom window broken while the baby was asleep,” Lowry wrote. “My back door has been broken while all of my kids were home.” View Slideshow

Jon Bon Jovi Taunts Kim Kardashian: You Give Love (Making) a Bad Name!

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

According to Jon Bon Jovi, Kim Kardashian gives love making a bad name. Her type of fan is akin to some kind of bad medicine. While many hard-working families around the world are essentially living on nothing more than a prayer, Kim and her relatives are living off the lewd acts Kardashian went committed while naked on camera with Ray J. What we’re saying is this: Jon Bon Jovi is not a fan of Kim Kardashian. The legendary musician made this as clear as he possible could while speaking this weekend to Australia’s The Sunday Project. “I think it’s horrific that we live in that world,” the rock star said of how folks such as Kim and her family members can be famous, adding: “I can tell you I’ve never given 60 seconds of my life ever to one of those Housewives of Blah Blah and Kardashians.” It’s not evident what prompted this attack by Bon Jovi, but once the singer got going, he couldn’t get over how talented bands can make money by singing a song titled Bed of Roses… … while un talented people such as Kim can make even more money by having sex on a bed in front of a video recorded and then releasing the footage online.  “I don’t know their names, I’ve never watched 60 seconds of the show, it’s not for me,” he continued, prior to taking direct aim at the Kim Kardashian sex tape and asking Kim: “What’s gonna be in your autobiography? ‘I made a porno and guess what, I got famous.’ F-ck, sorry, I’ll pass.” The thing is, if Kim did write a biography with this title, you just know it would be a best-seller. “Go and write a book, paint a painting, act, study, sing, play write,” Bon Jovi reportedly added, lamenting how reality stars and Instagram models don’t actually do anything to garner their fame and fortune. As the saying sort of goes these days, they are famous just for being famous.  This is a criticism that has followed Kardashian around ever since she got nude and straddled Ray J for Kim Kardashian Superstar . She has insisited for years ever since that she actually works harder than most celebrities specifically to combat this assumption. “I think that’s how I was definitely introduced to the world,” she told Oprah in 2012 of the sex tape, adding; “It was a negative way, so I felt like I really had to work 10 times harder to get people to see the real me.” The real Kim appears to be someone with very little personality or humor or ability to do much of anything aside from take off layers of clothing. Despite this perception, though, Kim continues emphasize that she really does work hard on things such as fashion and her various business endeavors. “It is a talent to have a brand that’s really successful off of getting people to like you for you,” Kardashian said on 60 Minutes in 2016. “I would think that has to involve some kind of talent, you know?” In ths same interview, Kim acknowledged the vital role Twitter and Instagram have played in her enormous success, but she also wanted credit for having figured out how to master those platforms to her benefit. “I totally attribute my career to social media,” she said, confessing that she has “monetized the act of living.” This is actually a very astute way of describing it. The public can now choose to either side with Kim and praise her for figuring out how to do this… … or with Bon Jovi and roll their eyes over it.

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Following a period of time in which he often appeared to be juggling multiple women at once, Javi Marroquin is now engaged to Lauren Comeau . Sometimes former players are able to grow up, settle down, and make reliable spouses. But it's equally possible that Javi still has some wild oats to sow. Either way, fans will be scrutinizing his every move — especially when he spends the weekend partying with a very recent ex. Check it out: 1. The Happy Couple Javi is currently engaged to Lauren Comeau. The couple recently bought a house and are currently expecting their first child together. 2.

Nicki Minaj: My Best Friend Whupped Cardi B’s Ass!

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Remember when Cardi B threw a shoe at Nicki Minaj and then left the party with a massive goose egg on her forehead? Well, now we have a better idea of exactly how the rapper got lumped up. And from the sound of things, the beef between the undisputed queen of hip-hop and the latest claimant to her throne is far from over. The latest drama began when Cardi’s sister — who is apparently actually named Carolina Hennessy — alleged that Nicki leaked Cardi’s number to her fans. “She leaked my sister’s number to her fan pages the same sh-t she did to Mariah Lynn,” Hennessy wrote on Instagram this week. “It’s easy for y’all to ask me why I’m bothered, why I care so much! But not one of you are waking up to death threats every day, made up stories that could effect my REAL life and my REAL relationships!” Hennessy added. “Imagine if this was your infant child, imagine if this was your sister or ya mother! Who with a real heart and real f**kin feelings is going to continue to let a group of people harass them!! If you wouldn’t defend yourself or ya family cool but not me!! Not NEVER!” On her Beats 1 radio show, Nicki denied leaking the phone number. Hilariously, she went on to reveal that her friend — former Love & Hip Hop star Rah Ali — was the one who took brutal revenge on Cardi following the infamous Hurling of the Louboutin. “Rah beat Cardi’s ass really bad,” she said. “The punches were so hard in your head. Rah beat you so bad that I was mad at Rah. She punched her eight, nine times. Now you got your sister calling me a crackhead.” Minaj went on to say that she would be “happy” to make the feud “stop” and “never talk about this again.” While a severe head-pummeling doesn’t seem like a proportionate response to a thrown shoe, Nicki certainly has some loyal friends. That said, her fans might be a little too loyal, and if they’re really issuing death threats to Cardi’s family, then it’s time for these two to bury the hatchet before someone gets hurt. Although if they wanted to toss a couple savage diss tracks at each other before moving on, we would be okay with that … View Slideshow: 19 Nicki Minaj Fun Facts!

Anfisa and Jorge Nava: We Quit 90 Day Fiance!

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In September, Jorge Nava reported to prison to begin serving his 2.5 year sentence. His wife, Anfisa, is still free and continues to be a full-time student. But she has shared some news that will break the hearts of many fans: she and Jorge are done with 90 Day Fiance . Anfisa Nava has clearly been working out, and she took to Instagram to show off the results. You can see those results for yourself in the gif below. Her fans and followers sure noticed. “Oh wow, your transition from first seeing you on  90 Day Fiance  has been phenomenal,” a fan commented. That comment continued: “I hope they bring you and Jorge back next season.” Anfisa, however, had some crushing news. “Nope, we are done,” she wrote, adding a smiling emoji. Though her followers had been commenting on slender and surprisingly buff body, her revelation caught their attention. “That makes me sad that u won’t be back on the show,” wrote a fan. The fan continued, saying that they would “miss u guys much.” “Why are you guys done??” asked another follower. That follower continued: “You two are one of my favorite couples!” We talked about this possibility earlier this year, in the aftermath of the initial arrest and especially after  Jorge’s sentencing . Anfisa and Jorge are one of the most talked-about couples in the  90 Day Fiance  franchise. Why? In part, because they’re still together — which was seriously questioned for a while. In part because Anfisa is hot (let’s not pretend that people don’t follow some couples more than others because of that; get real) And in part because they are heavily controversial. One is a gold digger and the other is, well, a pot grower who lied about his wealth to score a much hotter bride. Their relationship seemed toxic for so long — they were openly hostile to each other. But we cautioned months ago that they might stop appearing on  90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? Why? Because Jorge is in prison. While it’s true that some television shows have interviewed prisoners and aired the footage, that doesn’t really work well for reality shows. It’s hard to do a show about a married couple when one is behind bars. Anfisa is believed to be relying at least partially upon YouTube revenue — though that is uncunfirmed — while Jorge is away. In a recent YouTube video, she seemed to throw her embattled husband under the proverbial bus. “In my opinion, Jorge is an adult and he really should take responsibility for his actions,” Anfisa said. “And,” she continued. “Whatever is going on now, he brought upon himself.” Interestingly, many would blame a corrupt legal system that makes a plant perfectly legal on one side of an imaginary line and heavily illegal on the other. “And I think I don’t deserve to be in this situation,” Anfisa said. “And I don’t deserve to hear all this negativity from all these people.” It’s true that Anfisa wasn’t the one who was caught in Arizona transporting a massive amount of marijuana. Some found that line a little coldhearted, especially coming from the guy’s wife. But perhaps she is trying to avoid making excuses for him and instead focusing on hoping that he gets out a few months early. 2.5 years may be a relatively short prison sentence, but it’s a long time. Especially for a married couple. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Couples: Who’s Still Together?
