Kim Kardashian Got Baptized in Armenia Alongside Her Children

Kim Kardashian is feeling very “blessed” after a rather spiritual family trip to their ancestral homeland, Armenia.  On Thursday, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star shared photos to Instagram of her with daughter North West following a family baptism at the Etchmiadzin Cathedral in Vagharshapat, Armenia.  “Thank you Armenia for such a memorable trip,” she wrote to Instagram.  “So blessed to have been baptized along with my babies at Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin, Armenia’s main cathedral which is sometimes referred to as the Vatican of the Armenian Apostolic Church.”  The family enjoyed the moment in style of course, as the mom and daughter duo donned gorgeous white veils, and North rocked a beautiful statement necklace over her shirt.  While it’s unclear if North was involved in the religious ceremony, as she was previously baptized in Jerusalem when she was 22-months-old , a source did confirm that Kanye and Kim’s three youngest were baptized.  According to People , Psalm, Chicago, and Saint were baptized at the cathedral that morning, while aunt Kourtney Kardashian and her kiddos, Mason, Reign, and Penelope joined them for the ceremony.  The insider also shared to People that the sisters were staying in the nearby capital city of Yerevan; Kanye did not come along for the trip — but we’re sure he had all the FOMO.  Kim and Kourtney spent part of their trip meeting with the country’s president, Armen Sarkissian, and we all know how much  Kanye loves meeting with presidents . But besides politics, the Kardashian West family is very vocal about their religion and faith, especially right now with Kanye’s popular Sunday Service.  However, the mom of four told Elle.com in April that “it’s honestly more of a healing experience” for her husband. “It’s just music; there’s no sermon. It’s definitely something he believes in — Jesus — and there’s a Christian vibe,” she explained.  “But there’s no preaching. It’s just a very spiritual Christian experience.”  The KKW beauty founder added that all religions are welcome and that they have many of their Jewish and Muslim friends come all the time. Still waiting on my invite, it’s fine…  And who knows, maybe one day Kanye will do a Sunday Service in Armenia? It sounds like the trip was a success and we wouldn’t be surprised if they took many more trips there in the future.  During their visit, the sisters also visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex to pay their respects to the catastrophic event in which the Ottoman state murdered 1.5 million Ottoman Armenians in 1915.  The genocide is a tragedy many are still unaware of and that some even deny happened, which is beyond concerning. Luckily, Kim and Kourtney wrote an essay for Time and took out an ad in the New York Times to address the American Genocide deniers.  Overall, it sounds like this trip was very powerful for Kourtney, Kim, and their children — we’re sure their father, the late Robert Kardashian, was looking down on them smiling.

Maddox Jolie-Pitt to Dad Brad: I Want Nothing to Do With You, Bruh!

When Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt separated back in 2016, the public reacted with the sort of shock that’s seldom elicited by celebrity breakups. Of course, Brangelina was no mere celebrity couple. Along with their six children, Pitt and Jolie were viewed by many as the closest a family could get to perfection. When they went there separate ways, the confusion was compounded by news of an extraordinarily messy split. Pitt was accused of abuse , and while the exact nature of his actions remains a mystery, we know two things for certain: 1. His behavior was bad enough (at least in Jolie’s eyes) to bring about the end of a decade-long relationship, and  2. His eldest son Maddox was somehow involved. Last month, Maddox left for college in South Korea, and there’s been much speculation as to whether or not he’ll receive any visits from his A-list dad. But if the latest reports from In Touch Weekly are to be believed, it seems unlikely that Pitt will be making any such journey. A source tells the tabloid that Brad and Maddox are still estranged, three years after that notorious incident aboard a private jet. “And for Brad, it’s a tremendous loss,” says the insider. The informant claims that Maddox’s low opinion of Brad has influenced how his younger siblings view their father, as well: “With Maddox overseas, Brad is also hopeful that Pax will also be interested in reconnecting without the influence of his older brother,” the insider added. Thus far, however, it seems that softening of harsh feelings has not occurred. The source adds that Maddox’s decision to study abroad has drawn a mixed reaction from his loved ones: “Maddox is leaving the tight-knit family nest and while there have been some tears, he’s super excited about starting this new journey,” says the insider. “They’re all going to miss their oldest brother, who’s always been kind and a very calming presence, even when he was little.” As for Maddox’s feeling toward his father, it seems they’re similarly conflicted. Already, the tabloid press has caught up with the 18-year-old and asked if Pitt will be visiting him at school : “Um, I don’t know about that … what’s happening,” he said. “Whatever happens, happens.” It may be a long time before that question is answered in any decisive fashion, but in the meantime, can we all agree that this kid deserves some privacy?

Alexis Bellino: I’m Not Returning to Housewives! Tamra Judge is MEAN!

Alexis “Jesus Jugs” Bellino really, truly hates that nickname, and the woman who gave it to her: Tamra Judge. While Alexis did make an appearance on The Real Housewives of Orange County , it was only to discuss divorce with Emily Simpson . The former Housewife may have filmed that scene, but she's not coming back. And according to a report by RadarOnline , that is very much by choice. What would keep the recently divorced Alexis from accepting a massive Housewives paycheck? Tamra Judge, apparently. Alexis just can't stand her, and the report explains exactly why.   1. Alexis Bellino could have reclaimed her Orange! “Andy Cohen personally asked Alexis to come back full time this season,” an insider reveals to RadarOnline. 2. Wildly, here was her answer: “But she said no,” the source shares. Not many people are willing to pass up that kind of paycheck. This is especially true of people who were recently divorced. 3. Why TF would she do that? The insider explains that Alexis turned down the offer “because she wants nothing to do with Tamra.” 4. She’s avoiding Tamra like the plague “Tamra runs everyone off the show,” the source characterizes. She can be very supportive to some of her friends, but … yeah, she’s a lot. 5. Apparently it’s not even worth that hefty paycheck “Alexis refused to come back,” the insider reiterates. “Because she won’t be around Tamra.” 6. And yet … she did appear on RHOC “Alexis agreed to film just one scene,” the source notes, referring to Alexis’ sit-down with Emily in which she discussed her life now and how miserable her divorce process was.

Snooki Accuses Jen Harley of "Showing Off" Bruises Inflicted By Ronnie Magro

Folks, the Ronnie Magro-Jen Harley situation is getting uglier by the day. Earlier this week, we speculated that the latest allegations might result in Ronnie being fired from Jersey Shore — now, it looks as though they could mean the end of the entire franchise. As you’ve probably heard by now, Magro was tased and arrested earlier this week after allegedly attacking Harley and threatening her with a knife inside the Los Angeles Airbnb where the couple was staying. The severity of the incident was immediately apparent from the police reports. And in case there was any doubt,   photos of Harley’s injuries  — taken while she was eating at a restaurant with her daughter just two days after the incident — served to underscore the extent of the violence she had endured. It’s hard to imagine anyone reacting to the bruises and scrapes on Jen’s limbs with anything other than sympathy for the victim and disgust for her assailant. But apparently, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi is still firmly on Team Ronnie, and she made her feelings abundantly clear while speaking with Mike Sorrentino on her podcast this week: “I feel like she went out intentionally to get a photo of her,” she told Sorrentino. “You don’t have to be wearing a tank top, showing your bruises and the bruise on your leg. She’s wearing booty shorts to show it off.” Yeah, that’s pretty awful. And unfortunately, Polizzi went on from there: “You can go out with your daughter and have lunch, but cover those up so it’s not a thing,” she continued. “She wants it to be a thing. She wants to show off her bruises.” Look, we don’t need to tell you that Jen’s no angel, but surely she deserves more compassion and respect than Snooki is demonstrating here. What is Polizzi suggesting, exactly? That Jen should cover up her bruises for Ronnie’s benefit? That’s some victim-shaming bullsh-t, and while we might have expected as much from 2009 Snooki, our standards for 2019 Snooki are much higher. “We don’t know how she got the bruises,” Snooki added, implicitly expressing her skepticism of Jen’s abuse claims. Sorrentino, who was released from prison just last month, was far more thoughtful in his remarks: “He’s not answering texts. I’ve been texting him for days,” Mike said of his efforts to get in touch with Ronnie. “I told him wake the f**k up and call me. He didn’t answer back. I went with a softer approach. He didn’t answer either.” Mike added: “I pray for him, Jen, the baby. His future.” Earlier this year, Ronnie revealed that he got sober with Sorrentino’s help , but it appears he’s since fallen off the wagon. Sounds like Ron could use more friends like Mike in his life and fewer enablers like Snooki. View Slideshow: Ronnie Magro: I’m Innocent, Bro! I Was Just Protecting My Daughter!

Liam Hemsworth: I Want What’s Best For Miley Cyrus! Even If It’s Cody Simpson…

Liam Hemsworth just told us how he really feels about Miley Cyrus and her um, current dating binge.  And it’s very much not what we were expecting. Prepare to ugly cry, people! It’s been almost two months since Miley and Liam announced their separation, and following the news, Cyrus was with Kaitlynn Carter for a month , and now she is dating Cody Simpson.  Yes, she made it official yesterday when she called Cody her “bf” on Instagram.  And no, we don’t know what to think. But one thing is for sure — our hearts are breaking for Liam.  Especially after he just made the sweetest and most level-headed statement ever!  Us Weekly reports that Liam is “not harping on the past” and that he “holds no ill-will” against his ex.” He also “wants what’s best for her — even if it’s not him,” the source said, adding that Hemsworth is not opposed to dating, either.  Noted.  Although he hasn’t been seeing anyone, because, you know,  he’s in the process of a divorce , the source says that “he’s open to meeting people.” We’re glad to see that Liam is maintaining a positive outlook on the unfortunate situation. And in his own time, of course, we highly doubt that he will have a hard time finding love again.   Meanwhile, Miley has made it overly clear that she has moved on and is well adapted to her new husbandless lifestyle  (And if you don’t follow her on social media, take my word.)  Cyrus has really used this time to “be free”, but reportedly, “she is having fun and that’s all,” a source recently told E!.  “She doesn’t take anything too seriously or think too much about what she’s doing.” “She doesn’t have to answer to anyone and is happy about that,” the source added. Fine, but like, we have SO many questions. We’re all here for embracing your singleness and having fun, as long as other people’s emotions aren’t on the line.  Not cool.  Of course, when one relationship ends it can be tempting to jump into another, we just hope the “Slide Away” singer is truly ready.  And maybe it’s not that serious, but if you’ve seen all of their cuddly posts filled with heart emojis and love poems, it’s safe to say it probably, ok ,  definitely is.  The two sparked romance rumors after they were seen publicly kissing in Los Angeles just last week, and now they seem to be spending every waking moment together. Literally, every moment, even when Miley was in the hospital receiving treatment for tonsilitis Cody remained right by her side. And serenaded her while shirtless, of course. I seriously think Miley and Liam moved on from their own relationship quicker than we did. If Miley is happy then sure, we’re happy, but it’s a lot and I’m trying my best to keep up! Ok?!  Anyway, excuse me while I go look for Liam on all the dating apps.  View Slideshow: Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth: Relive the Romance!

Audrey Roloff Offers Some Very Strange Advice to Single Women

Audrey Roloff is a happily married woman who clearly thinks she navigated her dating life in the most ideal way possible, hence this happy marriage. And this is wonderful for the former Little People, Big World star. More props to her, right? The thing is, what’s best for one person isn’t necessarily best for another person. And what’s best for this other person may not be best for some other person, you know? We say all of this because Audrey just shared the very sweet above photo of herself and husband Jeremy, writing along with it some advice to various women around the world. Some questionable advice, many folks out there believe. “SINGLE LADIES: To all my girls out there that are “hanging out” with a guy that you’re just not sure about… “You can’t help who you fall in love with, but you CAN help who you spend time with,” the expecting mother of one wrote to open her polarizing caption. Continued Audrey, in confusing fashion: Be careful spending too much time with someone you don’t see yourself marrying because you just might fall in love with them…. And falling in love with someone you don’t see yourself marrying only ends in hurt. Guard your heart so that you can give it undividedly to your future husband. You would want him to do the same for you. Just… weird, right? For starters: What, exactly, is the difference between falling in love with someone and finding someone you want to marry? In what sort of situation would a man or woman fall in love with someone, and yet also know for certain he or she would not want to marry this person? Secondly, what’s the matter with simply dating for the sake of dating? For the sake of having fun? For the sake of learning something about yourself? Or of discovering what you want out of a long-term partner? We aren’t the only ones who reacted to Audrey’s message with these questions and issues. The following comment sums it up well: OR how about single women enjoy the single life without making marriage the end goal? Fall in love multiple times, learn, grow, find out what you don’t like and what you do, have fun, experience new things, have a LIFE that does not revolve around marriage and kids. I feel bad for women like you who don’t seem to have any other identity besides a wife and a mother. Don’t put that onto other women just because it’s what you wanted. Audrey likely does mean well by offering up this advice. As others have noted in the past, however, she’s only been married for five years . Is she really in a position to be giving such broad advice to all “single ladies,” as Audrey herself writes in this controversial caption? Should she really be telling anyone how to lock in a godly husband ? Jeremy and Audrey are parents to an adorable two-year old named Ember. They are expecting a son in early January and, like we previously said, they appear to be very content with each other — which is fanastic! We aren’t judging their relationship at all, merely whether Audrey should be dishing out advice to others based purely on her own belief system. “I love growing with you, working with you, playing with you, learning with you, dreaming with you, adventuring with you, and I love loving you,” Audrey wrote to her husband a month ago, adding: “I’m so honored to live this life alongside you. I’m inspired by who you are and who you are becoming and so grateful that you’re my best friend.” View Slideshow: Audrey Roloff Shares Gender Reveal Pics: It’s a Boy!

Khloe Kardashian & Tristan Thompson: ACTUALLY Getting Back Together?!

Way back in April of 2018, Tristan Thompson got caught cheating on Khloe Kardashian with a slew of random groupies while he was on the road with the Cleveland Cavs. Khloe forgave Tristan — and he quickly made her regret it. Not long after, Tristan was caught cheating again — this time with Kylie Jenner’s longtime best friend Jordyn Woods. It was the ultimate betrayal, and Khloe once again kicked Tristan to the curb. On the second offense, she seemed to have every intention of sticking to her guns. But time heals all wounds, makes fools of us all, etc. Choose whatever cliche you want — the point is, it looks like Khloe is once again on the verge of giving Tristan another chance. According to a new report from Radar Online, the former couple never really cut the lines of communication. Which is not surprising — these two have a daughter together, after all. But it seems that in recent months, the conversation has shifted away from toilet training in favor of talk about making more babies. “Khloe and Tristan are talking so much lately,” an insider tells the site. “And it isn’t just about their daughter, they talk a lot just about regular life,” the source adds. Obviously, the idea of Khloe getting back together with Tristan is horrifying, but sadly it seems the ladies of the Kardashian clan won’t be stepping in to put a stop to this ill-advised reconciliation. “Kim actually likes Tristan and has been saying she likes hanging out with him, he is a cool guy,” says the tipster. “Kim has been open about hating Tristan for what he did to Khloe, but she has definitely been nicer about him lately.” Yes, Kim made no secret of her hatred of Tristan after word got out of his repeated infidelities. We’d be more than a little surprised if she really abandoned that antipathy, but then again, it seems Thompson is quite adept at acquiring unearned forgiveness. And apparently, these days, he’s laser-focused on winning back Khloe. “Tristan does all sorts of flirty things, like sending Khloe flowers and little gifts, all trying to convince her to give him another chance,” says the source. “But so far it hasn’t worked and they’re not back together — yet,” the insider adds. “Khloe hates that she likes Tristan and wants to be around him. So far she isn’t letting anything romantic happen.” Apparently, one thing that’s made it difficult for Khloe to take Tristan back is the fact that he will 100 percent cheat on her again. The source says that Khloe “doesn’t trust him at all,” but finds herself conflicted about how to move forward: “She wants him to be in True’s life, but she doesn’t have faith in him now,” the insider claims. “He’s putting in a huge effort with Khloe and she told him to cut it out in public.” Referring to Tristan’s thirsty comments on Khloe’s Instagram pics , the source adds: “No more comments on social media because it makes him look pathetic.” Bruh. That’s way down the list of things that make you look pathetic. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Makes Stunning Admission, Says Tristan Thompson Threatened to Kill Himself

Kailyn Lowry to Briana DeJesus: Sorry, Girl, I Still Hate You!

If you've been a longtime Teen Mom fan, then you're probably very familiar with the issues between Kailyn Lowry and Briana DeJesus. And you probably remember just how bad things got between them. At this point, all of their drama is getting kind of old — it's been about two years since it all began. But, as Kailyn revealed in the latest episode of her podcast, there's still plenty of bad blood between these two ladies … 1. Memories It doesn’t feel like it’s been two years since the feud between Kailyn and Briana began, does it? 2. Then Again … But there’s just SO much drama in the Teen Mom universe, and we see a lot of it play out in real life before we see it on the show, and sometimes we see things on the show that we really didn’t know about when it was actually happening … so time just moves different for these people, OK? 3. Looking Back Anyway, it was about two years ago that Briana and her family went on a Disney World vacation with Javi Marroquin and little Lincoln, the son he shares with Kailyn. He was kind of secretive about the whole thing, and Kailyn really sincerely did not appreciate it. 4. Mad at Everyone After that, Kail officially started hating Briana, and her relationship with Javi turned sour, too. They got into a pretty heated argument while filming a Teen Mom 2 reunion special because Kailyn thought she’d been disrespected, it was this whole thing — you remember. 5. Weird Their feud has actually lasted way, way longer than Javi and Briana’s actual relationship did — they only dated for a few months, but the pettiness has lived on. 6. Ridiculous It kind of makes sense when you think about the fact that there was a time when Javi was juggling both ladies at the same time, as well as a relationship with current fiancee Lauren Comeau View Slideshow

Chris Harrison Reveals Condition of Peter Weber After "Freak Accident"

If you’ve been following  The Bachelor  Spoilers , you know that this season’s filming is well underway. On Tuesday came the shocking news that  Peter Weber was injured in a freak accident , sustaining some nasty-sounding facial cuts. But Chris Harrison is assuring fans that, despite Peter’s hospitalization, the show will go on. Chris Harrison has opened up on social media about Peter Weber’s injuries. The  The Bachelor  Host acknowledges that Peter “suffered a freak accident” while getting into a golf cart in Costa Rica. “He got a cut on his head,” Chris shares as a detail. This wasn’t just a scratch, either — that hospitalization was very much needed. “He did get stitches,” Chris confirms. Head wounds can be frightening, particularly because they tend to bleed a lot. Chris wants to assure fans: “but he’s 100% okay.” “And,” he adds. “Production is already back underway.” It may sound cynical to discuss the production schedule, but each day of  not  filming can cost thousands or even millions. But knowing that Peter is already okay to film again will do more to assure fans that he’s okay than almost anything else. Naturally, some people might have worried about  The Bachelor ‘s season if the leading man has a serious facial injury. Chris wants to assure everyone that, no, Peter has not been disfigured by this fall. “He’s still the dashing, handsome pilot we’ve all dreamed of,” Chris promises. Chris also observed that there had been “wild” rumors about Peter circulating on Tuesday. He hopes that his words of assurance help people to calm down. Our suspicion is that some people will harbor worries until they see a fresh photo or video of Peter’s face. He has a lot of dedicated fans — and he did even before people found out that he was Hannah’s  windmill bandit . You know that some people are rooting for him to find love just to see if he goes four times in a row with  every  lady he courts. But fans should remember that he’s a person, with charm and other qualities unrelated to windmill boning. And his face is, we’re sure, just fine. While we’re relieved to know that Peter is “100% okay,” this did give us a thought. How would contestants and the Bachelor Nation as a whole react if, halfway through a season, the leading man were suddenly and abruptly less handsome? We don’t mean a single cut that was treated immediately. We mean, like, suddenly he’s gone some  Phantom of the Opera  stuff happening on his face. Which contestants would quit, knowing that the eyes of America are on them?  Who would stay on out of love? Who would stay on to make it look like they’re non-shallow romantics but really they just want to build their brand? To be clear, though, we’re not trying to give producers any ideas.  Please do not maim reality stars, no matter how interesting the season would be. As for Peter, we’re sure that he’ll be back to boning in windmills before his stitches are even done healing, if he hasn’t already. Good for him.
