We are not the biggest Kendall Jenner fans on the planet. Sometimes the reality star says dumb things and often times she fails to recognize that her last name and celebrity status have played monumental roles in her modeling success. That said, Jenner did not deserve to be the subject of immense body-shaming across the Internet when a few nude pictures of her leaked online. As you'll see below, a handful of trolls saw these images and decided to go public with their misguided and very cruel opinions, simply because it's easy and relatively consequence-free to do so behind a screen and keyboard. For shame. Scroll down for more on this story and to learn what, exactly, the Kendall Jenner haters have been saying… 1. So, What Happened? On September 11, 2018, a number of images from photographer Russell James’ new book were somehow stolen and learked online, without his permission or the permission of his subjects. 2. What Did the Photographs Depict? In Kendall’s case, they featured her in her birthday suit in a variety of positions and poses, most notably running down a beach and riding horseback. 3. Anything Else? In other snapshots, Kendall is perched beside a tree, fully naked… and in another she frolics in the sea. We are not going to publish the photos here out of respect for Jenner and the art. 4. The Internet Has Reacted Totally Calmly and Reasonably to This Leak, Right? HA! That’s a funny joke. If you believe that, you probably also believe that Kim Kardashian played no role in her sex tape release. Let’s take a look at some of the worst responses to the picture, shall we? 5.

It’s been a while since Lena Dunham has done anything to warrant the attention of us slavering hellhounds in the gossip-sphere. It could have to do with the fact that she’s adopted a more low-key lifestyle these days and turned her attention to, in her words, “pursuing slow meaningful spiritual progress.” Of course, it’s equally possible that we all simultaneously decided to stop regularly checking her social media accounts for any number of valid reasons. (Public interest in her personal life has been on the decline ever since Girls ended; she seems to google herself constantly despite being cursed with very thin skin; Lena-related gossip frequently centers around “hard pass” subject matter like vaginas crammed full of pebbles , etc.) Whatever the case, there’s less Lena in your life these days, and we don’t need a focus group to know that you’re probably okay with that. But the never-reliable Star magazine decided to dip its toe back in the Lena pond this week, and despite the high probability that this story is total BS (again, Star magazine) we decided it’s amusing enough to share with you. As you may recall, back in January, Lena and Jack Antonoff broke up after six years of dating. By all accounts, the split was mutual and amicable, but it seems Lena misses more about the relationship than just quipping “I hope you bought Anton a drink first!” every time someone said her boyfriend’s full name. An “insider” tells Star that Lena is still hung up on Jack in a big way, and her obsession is beginning to take a toll on his new relationship. “She calls Jack at least five times a day, all in the name of ‘friendship’ – and she always talks to him right before she goes to bed,” says the anonymous friend. “She’ll text him photos of her private parts at like 1 a.m. At that point, he just turns the phone off.” Not surprisingly, the source also claims that Jack’s new girlfriend, Carlotta Kohl, is less than thrilled with the situation. “Half the time she spent with him, he was on the phone with his ex!” says the tipster of a recent date between Jack and Carlotta. We figure September is a good time to get around to our New Year’s resolution of trying something new every day, so we’re actually gonna defend Lena instead of making a bunch of easy jokes at her expense. Here goes nothing: Lena Dunham is probably not sending unsolicited vadge pics to her ex-boyfriend, and the only way this source could sound more made-up is if it called the situation “steamy,” or used some other word that’s only ever been used by tabloid writers. Now if you’ll excuse us, this small act of decency has made us feel all out of sorts. We’re gonna go kick a puppy or vote Republican or something to balance ourselves out.

After six years of marriage and 14 years as a couple, Brandon and Leah Jenner have reached the shocking decision to go their separate ways. The couple announced the sad news Monday, via an open letter to fans and the media. “Hi Everybody, It is with love in our hearts that we feel it’s time to share some personal news with you all,” the statement began. “After celebrating fourteen beautiful years together, we have lovingly come to the decision to end the romantic aspect of our relationship.” “We are deeply proud of the life we’ve cultivated together and are truly grateful for the bond of friendship we hold and cherish today.” “It is stronger than ever.” Based on their comments, it seems Brandon and Leah have agreed to part ways on mutually amicable terms. The couple went on to assure fans that they remain committed to making the happiness of their daughter, Eva, their top priority: “Even though we have chosen to separate as a couple, we still love one another very, very much and remain a major part of each other’s lives.” The statement noted that they will remain “best friends, family and loving parents to our daughter.” “There has been no lying or cheating or fighting that prompted this change, just an expansion of our individual evolution which has inspired us to support each other in a new way.” That’s a positive spin on it. “We are still very much a loving family and are bonded by a deep connection that is rooted in love.” The Jenners went on to assure fans that any information they see that contradicts this official statement should be disregarded as a fabrication. Brandon and Leah have known each other since they were teenagers and began dating way back in 2004. In 2012, the couple was married, and in 2016, Leah Jenner welcomed her first child . While many celebrity couples issue statements about their intention to remain friends and put their child’s needs first, Brandon and Leah seem genuine in their intentions. Just last week, Leah posted a photo of Brandon on Instagram with a caption reading, “Best dada ever.” View Slideshow: Kardashian Family Members’ Net Worth: Ranked! Insane!!
On Wednesday, August 15, Alaskan Bush People star Noah Brown married Rhain in a heartwarming wedding ceremony. Some “fans” of the show and the family have never liked Rhain, and rumors began to surface that Rhain wasn’t allowed to take Noah’s last name. Noah has come forward to clear things up, once and for all. Noah Brown spoke to RadarOnline to lay this rumor to rest. “Rhain is my wife,” Noah affirmed. Not that there was any doubt — but, especially for newlyweds, that statement can feel powerful. “And,” Noah continued. “She is my wife for life.” Noah then makes it clear: “and of course she will be taking my last name.” Noah cannot help but gush about his new life. “It feels wonderful to be married,” Noah shares. He mentions that his wedding date was a long time coming. “Rhain and I were engaged for over a year,” he reminds fans, before repeating: “And we are finally married.” He really loves saying it. That is so cute. He says that the feeling of being married has really improved his life. “It is like this huge weight has been lifted,” Noah says. They’re no longer engaged and deciding when and where to get married or trying to work out any of those details. Noah concludes: “We can finally focus on being husband and wife.” Good for them! Obviously, not ever woman who marries a man then goes and changes her last name to match his. Some hyphenate. Some simply leave their names as they are. It depends on many factors, but ultimately comes down to personal preference. Changing a name can be a troublesome and time-consuming and expensive process. It was probably a lot simpler a century ago when few women were gainfully employed or owned property. Sometimes, it can take a new bride some time to change her name — remember, you have to change things like deeds and bank accounts in the process. Just because someone hasn’t raced to do so instead of going on her honeymoon doesn’t mean that she’s never changing her name. We shouldn’t jump to conclusions. Noah has been something of a black sheep in his family, which is probably why he gets more grief from fans and viewers than Bam Bam does. Both sons fell in love and moved on with their lives, but Noah was always a little weird (yes, even weirder than his siblings). The kid who’s a little goth isn’t going to thrive out in the wilderness, folks. He’s a grown man and he’s allowed to live his wife. Some fans turned their ire on Rhain, even accusing her of “copying” Noah’s sister Rain’s name, because Rhain’s birth name is Ruth. Folks, people can change their names any time that they like. We’re not sure why people think that Rhain would want to copy her now-husband’s sister’s name. Noah dragged Rain on Instagram just a couple of months ago. Also, Rain Brown’s full name is Merry Christmas Kathryn Raindrop Brown . How would you even begin to “copy” that? We’re so glad that Noah and Rhain found each other and we hope that they continue to enjoy their wedded bliss. Fans (and so-called “fans”) will continue to say whatever they like about Noah and Rhain, but the further removed from reality television that Noah is, the less that these haters can touch them.

Just a couple of days ago, we heard the tragic news that rapper Mac Miller had passed away with all signs pointing to an overdose as the cause of death. It’s obviously been extremely hard on the people close to him — he’d been dealing with addiction for a long time, and he was only 26 years old. And despite the fact that they broke up back in May , Ariana Grande was still one of those people. When the couple split, Ariana wrote a statement on Instagram calling Mac “one of my best friends in the whole world and favorite people on the planet.” “I respect and adore him endlessly and am grateful to have him in my life in any form, at all times regardless of how our relationship changes or what the universe holds for each of us,” she continued. She explained that she still loved him, but “unconditional love … is wanting the best for that person even if at the moment, it’s not you.” She finished by telling him “I can’t wait to know and support you forever and I’m so proud of you!” It was a very sweet thing for Ariana to do, and Mac was, in turn, publicly supportive of her quick engagement to Pete Davidson shortly after their breakup. As of now, she hasn’t made a statement about his passing, but she did share a photo of him , presumably from their time together. And according to a new report from Us Weekly, she’s “absolutely heartbroken” about what happened. “Her entire family is in shock too,” a source claims . “They all grew close to Mac during his relationship with Ari.” “He was a huge part of her life, and they always shared such a special bond. She wanted nothing but positivity in Mac’s life after they broke up.” But even though Ariana was obviously a sweetheart about the breakup, and even though they were obviously on good terms, a lot of people can’t help but be awful. Several people have had the nerve to blame her for Mac’s death , because that makes sense, right? “Look I ain’t even even gon sugar coat it,” one of those people tweeted. “This is @ArianaGrande fault.” “Mac Miller was really killed by a heartbreak,” another person speculated. “Ariana and Pete really took him there don’t @ me. Love powerful. Ariana really a dangerous woman holy f-ck.” Some liked to put the blame on Ariana without directly putting the blame on her, like the person who wrote “I’m not saying that Ariana killed Mac, but the break up may have had a role in the death.” “Ariana Grande is in NO way to blame for Mac Miller’s death but when someone leaves you and is immediately with a new person … ya that sh-t hurts,” another one of those tweets read. And then there were the people who just got right to the point — one of those tweeted “It’s definitely Ariana Grande’s fault. F-ck that bitch.” The hate continued on Instagram, and it go so bad that Ariana had to disable comments on her account altogether because of the plentiful “it’s your fault” comments. Can you even imagine how rough that must have been? But on the bright side, a source who spoke with Hollywood Life says that Pete is doing his best to be there for her during this insanely difficult time. “Pete is amazing, he’s so solid, and he’s like, totally Ariana’s rock, her shoulder to cry on, support system, voice of reason, best friend, everything,” the insider claims. “Pete knows grief, he’s been through unmentionable horror and loss himself, and it doesn’t frighten him — he’s a real stand-up guy.” The source adds that “For all his goofy, comedian persona, he’s actually a super deep and sweet guy, he’s really empathetic, and he loves Ariana with every piece of his heart, all he wants to do is protect her as much as humanly possible.” As for all the unwarranted blame she’s getting on social media, the source says that “It’s bad enough that Ariana is suffering the trauma of losing somebody she cared deeply about, but then to be blamed for his death is just despicable.” “Pete is doing all he can to shield her from any poison and negativity.” The source also points out that “Mac had a lot of demons that he was battling and he struggled with addiction issues throughout his whole life pretty much so to try and lay the blame at Ariana’s feet is truly appalling.” “She’s just heartbroken.” Hopefully it’s true that Pete is doing all he can to take care of Ariana right now — again, we can’t imagine what she must be feeling.

Earlier this week, Josh Duggar dared to show his face online again, rearing his ugly head in a family photo. Fans were irate — and were so distracted that some didn’t immediately notice that something about Anna’s look was very conspicuous. Now, however, these eagle-eyed Duggar fans believe that Anna Duggar is pregnant with baby #6! Josh Duggar is so reviled that even people who like the Duggar family hate him, and those who dislike the Duggars as a whole still think that he’s worse than the rest. That’s what happens when the world finds out that you molested little girls and got away with it. So it is totally understandable that almost everyone’s attention was fully on Josh appearing in Anna Duggar’s Labor Day family photo. But if you turn your attention to the right of the pic, you will notice that Anna is also partially off screen, even though she and Josh could have easily fit into the picture. She could be hiding a baby bump. But the fact that half of her body is excluded isn’t the only reason why fans think that she’s pregnant. Can you catch it? While most of the comments are either from people going “yikes” about Josh appearing in a photo or, worse, from people defending him, others pointed out Anna’s dress. These fans recognized it as the same floral print maternity gown that she was wearing not all that long ago. While it’s totally possible to wear a maternity gown because it’s relatively comfortable and loose-fitting, fans can’t help but wonder if she is once again pregnant. It has been almost exactly one year since Anna gave birth. Considering that we’re talking about the Duggar family, it is not unreasonable to think that she may be pregnant again. Take a closer look at Anna and her gown. If she is pregnant, it looks like she’s still at an early enough stage of her pregnancy that she can conceal an obvious baby bump by wearing a loose gown and by leaning forward. (And, of course, by cropping off part of her body in the photo) As we mentioned, it’s been a while since she gave birth. Mason Duggar will turn one year old in less than a week — on September 12. Late last month, Anna revealed a health issue impacting baby Mason . Maybe Mackynzie, age 8, Michael, age 7, Marcus, age 5, Meredith, age 3, and Mason, age 1-ish are going to get a baby sibling. As we mentioned, the photo saw a number of passionate defenders speak up for Josh Duggar. One commenter suggested that, in the future, Anna should simply disable comments when she shares a picture of Josh, so that she doesn’t have to look at the “hate.” Another condemned Josh’s detractors, writing “society doesn’t understand true forgiveness,” as if holding child-molesters accountable is a strictly secular value. (For the record, it is not, and we should note that other famous conservatives, including some Robertsons of Duck Dynasty fame, publicly urged Anna to divorce the creep) One commenter even revealed that her own son had “gone through” what Josh had when he was 15, and expressed pity for these men for facing consequences for their actions. Wow . Even if Anna is pregnant, you can bet that the discourse over Josh is not going away any time soon. Some fans feel that, all things considered, it is simply too soon for Baby #6. Others feel that, at this point, she’s as thoroughly linked to Josh as she can be, and another child won’t do any harm. That said, it’s always possible that she was just wearing a comfortable, loose-fitting dress that still complies with Duggar rules. In the mean time, fans think that they have proof that Lauran Swanson is pregnant with Josiah Duggar’s baby already . View Slideshow: The Duggar Family: A Timeline of Endless Weddings
DISCLAIMER: We adore pets here at The Hollywood Gossip; and we especially love dogs. So if we take a sarcastic tone while reporting on Jen Harley’s latest Instagram Story post below, or if we straight up mock the occasionally-violent reality star, it’s not because we aren’t sympathetic to the loss of a furry loved one. All that said… … what the heck is Harley talking about here?!? Last Thursday night, MTV aired the much-anticipated confrontation between Harley and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. It took place in Las Vegas; it centered on Ronnie’s irritation over Jen hiding the couple’s daugther from him; and it even involved a producer stepping in front of a camera in order to try and calm Ronnie down. At various points in the dispute, Harley slammed her on-again/off-again boyfriend as a “loser” as a “psychopath” and as a “piece of sh-t.” She also spit on Ronnie. The argument had seemingly been a long time come, considering how viciously Harley and Ronnie had previously attacked each other on social media. But that wasn’t actually the cause of their contention, Harley now says. Her history with Ronnie didn’t play a significant role in this ugly meltdown, Jen explains on Instagram. She actually blames her anger and emotions at the time on the very recent death of her dog. “They edited out the whole side of my story and [they] just showed me flipping out, not me on the phone with the vet crying after finding out my dog was brought in deceased,” Harley said in response to the episode airing. She continue to defend herself as follows: “I was pissed everyone was hiding it from me and ignoring me! anyone who [owns] a dog would feel the same way !! “They made me go there [and] film it for everyone to see they couldn’t tell me any other way and it was f-cked up and they made it something completely different.” A tabloid source did actually say something similar back in June . After reports of this fight went viral, this insider said “Jen was supposed to be taking care of the dogs when he was away filming, and Ronnie came home to their house and found the dog dead in the pool.” YIKES . We can understand why this would cause serious tension between the estranged reality stars. But it’s not as though they hadn’t been going back and forth online long before this tragedy took place. So… where do Jen and Ronnie stand now? We have absolutely no idea. One second, we read something about their disdain for each other. The next second, as they are above on July Fourth, the two are looking all lovey-dovey on social media. That photo right here, we should note, was snapped AFTER last week’s crazy episode was filmed. As we keep coming back and saying each time the topic of Jen and Ronnie is raised, only one thing really matters in the end: The health and happiness of their young daughter, Ariana. We hope she’s doing okay. View Slideshow: Ronnie Ortiz-Magro: Demanding Paternity Test from Jen Harley?
It’s been almost seven months since David Eason was fired from Teen Mom 2 for hurling bigoted slurs at fans on social media. But Jenelle Evans’ husband has made a point of not backing away from his controversial stances. In fact — because 2018 is nightmarish hellscape in which every idiot with an opinion feels that they need to cram it down your throat on a daily basis until you run screaming for the “block” button — he’s been more outspoken than ever in recent weeks. You see, David is one of those well-heeled straight, Christian white guys who has somehow convinced himself he’s an oppressed minority. In David’s mind, the whole world is out to get him, and the barbarians are forever at his gates, which is why he needs to be armed to the teeth in order to defend himself. And he’s been expressing that view in increasingly offensive fashion lately with the help of the preferred weapon of internet jackasses everywhere — memes. As The Ashley’s Reality Roundup points out , David posted the above meme earlier this week, and predictably, the reaction from fans has been one of mingled confusion and outrage. “Why gun control? Because armed people will NOT willingly load themselves into railroad boxcars,” reads the caption. So … does David really think he’s at risk of being sent off to a concentration camp? Interestingly, that post comes on the heels of another one in which Eason boasts of his pride in being a straight white redneck. “For the people who get offended when you call them what they identify themselves as… I’m also proud to be a white man, a southerner and a redneck! #pride,” Eason captioned the above image. As far as we can tell, David is the kind of guy who will tell you that he and the rest of the MAGA crowd are tired of winning in one breath, and then argue that he needs an AR-15 to protect himself from his many oppressors in the next. He’s that very modern sort of dipsh-t who will complain about identity politics while proudly affixing himself with labels that he thinks will make his opinions matter more. Clearly, political matters are very much at the forefront of David’s mind these days. But since he and his wife have had CPS called to their house 20 times in the past year, maybe he should focus a bit more energy on getting his own house in order.

We now know why Dolores O’Riordan passed away in January. The former Cranberries lead singer was shockingly found dead in London several months ago, leaving this world at the relatively young age of 46. There were various theories as to what transpired at the time, with many outlets claiming O’Riordan’s death was related to her history of substance abuse. One irresponsible tabloid even alleged she had overdosed on sleeping pills . Now, however, per The BBC, coroner Shirley Radcliffe has completed her report and determined that the artist died due to a “tragic accident.” She drowned in her hotel bathtub after drinking a lot of alcohol. According to this doctor and her findings, there were no signs of injury or self-harm found during the post-mortem examination. The BBC goes on to say that authorities discovered a bottle of champagne and five miniature bottles in O’Riordan’s hotel room, in addition to “containers of prescription drugs with a quantity of tablets in each container.” Moreover, toxicology tests revealed that O’Riordan’s blood contained “therapeutic” amounts of medication but 330mg of alcohol per 100mls of blood. This equates to “four times over the 80mg legal limit for driving.” In simpler terms: the singer was very, very drunk. But the official report does not state she intentionally drowned herself. Following the release of these findings, The Cranberries released a statement that reads: Today we continue to struggle to come to terms with what happened. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Dolores’ children and her family and our thoughts are with them today. Dolores will live on eternally in her music. To see how much of a positive impact she had on people’s lives has been a source of great comfort for us. We’d like to say thank you to all of our fans for the outpouring of messages and their continues support during this very difficult time. O’Riordan joined The Cranberries when she was only 18 years old. She quickly became an integral part of the band both for her voice and also her songwriting. The group, whose top hits include “Linger,” “Dreams,” and “Zombie,” sold over 40 million albums worldwide and had multiple Billboard Top 200 hits throughout the 1990s. O’Riordan released her first solo album in 2003. Six years later, the group got back together and released an acoustic album as recently as 2017. O’Riordan’s death came as a stunning tragedy to her friends and fans. The remaining band members have repeatedly paid tribute to O’Riordan on Twitter, saying shortly after she died: We are devastated on the passing of our friend Dolores. She was an extraordinary talent and we feel very privileged to have been part of her life from 1989 when we started the Cranberries. The world has lost a true artist today. Elsewhere, The Cranberries will releasing a new album, which O’Riordan had been working on with them before her death. It will contain previously unreleased material by the band, as well as other bonus material from the era and it will be released in October. O’Riordan leaves behind three kids – Taylor, Mollie and Dakota – as well as her boyfriend, Olé Koretsky. May she rest in peace. View Slideshow: 32 Musicians Who Died Too Young
Last month, Kendall Jenner’s dumb comment pissed off the entire modeling world . Now, it sounds like she’s the one who’s feeling furious. Kendall and Caitlyn were spotted at a casual dinner, but eyewitnesses reported that they were arguing. In fact, it sounds like Kendall was really “tearing Caitlyn a new one.” Yikes! Page Six reports that Kendall and Caitlyn argued at dinner while dining at Nobu Malibu. According to eyewitnesses, they were dining near the Schwarzenegger clan, but did not seem to be enjoying a peaceful discussion. “They were arguing . . .” the insider begins, before deciding that this description fails to do justice to the situation. “It was more Kendall ripping Caitlyn a new one,” the source clarifies. According to the insider, Kendall was excoriating Cait “for ‘always turning her back on the family’ after they’ve been so good to her.” Page Six reached out to both women for comments. Caitlyn did not get back to them. Kendall Jenner did respond through a representative, who did not confirm that Kendall was giving Cait a hard time for rejecting the family. According to her rep: “This is absolutely untrue.” If that is true, it is unclear what this alleged argument was about, or whether an argument genuinely took place. It is true that Caitlyn appears to have turned her back on most of the Kardashian clan, though it’s sort of unclear where that begin. (Families, after all, are complicated like that) Caitlyn published a tell-all book about her life that left Kris Jenner and others feeling very hurt and insulted. Just last year, a Keeping Up With The Kardashians clip showed Kendall declare that Caitlyn Jenner is insane while they discussed Cait’s book. Kendall at the time guessed that Cait misremembered or imagined things as being different from how they were. But despite that, which was probably a little played up for the benefit of the cameras and the show, Kendall is close with Caitlyn. She and Kylie both honor Cait for Father’s Day and keep in touch with her. Caitlyn has appeared on Kylie Jenner’s less-than-ideally rated reality series, Life of Kylie . Cait can also be seen on social media spending time with Kendall. And, obviously, the two have dinner sometimes, even if they allegedly get into arguments during these meals. Family is complicated. Cait hasn’t really had contact with her former stepchildren, even though they’ve attended some of the same events. Though Cait has spent time with Kris — getting along for the sake of their shared children, Kim and especially Khloe have been far less forgiving. Rob has been worse, because he’s been actively insulting towards Cait and towards Kris for having married her, but … Rob is usually worse. Kris and Caitlyn are linked through Kendall and Kylie, though, which means that they sometimes bite the bullet and associate even though they’re very awkward exes. That’s life. In the mean time, sometimes, Cait is going to argue with Kylie or Kendall. That can happen within families, even when they’re rich and famous.
