Frank Ocean Comes Out as Bisexual, Receives Props or Whatever from Tyler the Creator

Perhaps spurred on by Anderson Cooper , Frank Ocean has become the first hip hop star to openly address his bisexuality. In a Tumblr post this morning, the rapper – who is part of the group Odd Future and who worked with Kanye West and Jay-Z on “Watch the Throne” – wrote: Frank Ocean in Concert Four summers ago, I met somebody. I was 19 years old. He was too. We spent that summer, and the summer after, together. Everyday almost. And on the days we were together, time would glide. Most of the day I’d see him, and his smile. Sleep I would often share with him. By the time I realized I was in love, it was malignant. It was hopeless. There was no escaping, no negotiating to the women I had been with, the ones I cared for and thought I was in love with. I don’t have any secrets I need kept anymore … I feel like a free man. In response to the brave admission, Tyler the Creator has Tweeted: “My Big Brother Finally F***ing Did That. Proud Of That N***a Cause I Know That Shit Is Difficult Or Whatever.” We might have used different language, but we echo Tyler’s sentiment.

Emily Maynard: Cracking Under Bachelorette Pressure?

The Bachelorette star Emily Maynard may have found Mr. Right in the end – read the latest Bachelorette spoilers here to learn who – but it wasn’t easy on her. The 26-year-old single mom became increasingly stressed out and worried about her looks throughout the season, according to a new report in Us . “She literally cried,” an insider says, if she was at all dissatisfied with her on-set hair and makeup, and “would throw a fit if she didn’t like her outfit.” “She’d break out in tears when she was unhappy about anything.” For a young woman who always seems so put-together, this report is a little surprising … or just false. Either way, it’s easy to see why she’s stressed. As a single mom to Ricki, who just turned seven, Emily Maynard faces a tougher decision than most of the ABC show’s stars that came before her. Any Bachelor or Bachelorette fan knows it may not work out after the hit show, but the prospect of failure is harder to stomach with a child involved. It remains to be seen if Maynard will accept a proposal from either Sean Lowe, Jef Holm or Arie Luyendyk on The Bachelorette’s Sunday July 22 finale. Tell us below: Who do you think she should choose?

Chris Bukowski: Cast on Bachelor Pad!

Chris Bukowski was sent packing by Emily Maynard on The Bachelorette last night, leaving Arie Luyendyk, Jr., Jef Holm and Sean Lowe to vie for her heart. The Bachelorette spoilers we posted earlier today reveal who (allegedly) wins if you’re curious. In any case, Chris will be moving on … to Bachelor Pad! Bukowski, a 25-year-old Chicagoan, decided to join Bachelor Pad 3 and the quest for $250,000/15 more minutes of fame after Emily rejected him. Of that decision, Emily Maynard recently wrote in a blog for People: “I had a hard time sending him home, but wanted to stay true to the promise I made to his sister that I wouldn’t keep him away from his family if I didn’t see him at the end.” Chris will be joining 19 other Bachelor and Bachelorette veterans – as well as five “super fans” of the franchise – on the Monday, July 23 premiere. A month after revealing the majority of the Bachelor Pad 3 cast , ABC finally announced the name of the summer show’s final contestant in Bukowski. Kalon McMahon and Tony Pieper from this season are also in. The Bachelorette season finale and first-ever live After the Final Rose show air on a special night: Sunday, July 22, starting at 8 p.m.

Travis Stork and Charlotte Brown: Married!

Dr. Travis Stork can lay claim to one of the shortest engagements in the history of The Bachelor, splitting from Sarah Stone before the season even finished airing. Fortunately, his second engagement worked out a bit better. Saturday, The Doctors co-host wed his girlfriend of over three years, pediatrician Dr. Charlotte Brown. The couple got engaged last year on vacation in Hawaii. Surrounded by family and friends, the two gorgeous physicians exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony nestled in the Colorado mountains. Stork couldn’t have been more thrilled: “My days as a Bachelor are nearing an end!” he Tweeted. “My wedding ring has arrived… getting excited!” Congratulations go out to Travis and Charlotte. They were clearly great catches whose days as a Bachelor and Bachelorette were limited. As for the current season airing on ABC, The Bachelorette spoilers hint at an interesting resolution to the June 22 finale. Follow the link if you date!

Stephanie Rice, Olympic Swimmer, Upsets Fans with Bikini-Based Twit Pic

A month before making literal waves in a London swimming pool at the 2012 Olympics, Australian Stephanie Rice is making figurative ones for a photo she recently posted on Twitter. The three-time gold medalist snapped a shot of herself in a bikini this week, showing off both her body and a birthday gift from designer Ellie Gonsalves. Simple and harmless, right? Not to some of Rice’s followers. “i feel that stephanie rice posting a photo of herself in swimwear has brought disgrace to the australian swim team and she should be dropped,” wrote one Twitter user, presumably taking issue with Rice for… okay, we have no idea. Showing more skin here than she does while donning official Olympic attire? The nerve! Rice is no stranger to somewhat racy Twitter photos, as evidenced by this picture of herself as a police officer . She was also once rumored to be dating Michael Phelps , which would be less scandalous than perfectly understandable from both points of view. So, in conclusion: Team Stephanie Rice in a Bikini!

Ali Fedotowsky to Emily Maynard: Sean Lowe FTW!

Ali Fedotowsky, who starred on The Bachelorette two summers ago, recently offered her views on who Emily Maynard should pick and as her lifelong mate. “Okay, I keep going back and forth. Like, literally, I’ve changed my mind 500 times,” Ali said of Emily’s remaining aspiring husbands, of whom four remain. While Ali first thought it was either Jef Holm or Arie Luyendyk, Jr., she now says she’s ruled out Arie and doesn’t think Jef is ready to be Ricki’s stepfather. She likens Emily and Jef to herself and Chris Lambton, the runner-up to Roberto Martinez (who she broke up with after an 18 month-engagement) in 2010. “This is a confusing season! She keeps saying that her relationship with Jef is slow to develop – that’s what I always used to say about Chris,” says Ali . “I mean, Chris is a great guy, such an awesome guy. But that’s like code on The Bachelorette for ‘we’re really just not romantically into each other.’” Which brings her to the pick: “If I had to guess right now, I’m going back to Sean Lowe ,” the insurance salesman from Texas who moonlights as a male model, she finally answered. The Bachelorette spoilers offer some hints as to who makes it past the hometown dates, but as far as her final rose recipient, all bets are still off! Whom do you think Emily should end up with?

Amber Portwood Struggling to Maintain Relationship With Daughter in Prison

She may be behind bars, but Teen Mom star Amber Portwood is willing to do whatever it takes to maintain a relationship with her 3-year-old daughter, Leah. Or at least she was, before she chose prison over her child. It’s this sad turn of events that makes the final season of Teen Mom so gut wrenching. On tonight’s episode, her time in rehab in Malibu, Calif., is chronicled. Gary Shirley’s ex-fiancee receives a visit from Leah and her father, but their reunion doesn’t exactly go off without a hitch, thanks in part to a court order. The Aeropostale-shirt-wearing Gary was shocked to find out that he’s barred, legally, from being in the same room with his ex and daughter simultaneously. “I brought Leah with me but I guess we can’t be together,” he says, and after an embrace, the couple part ways so Amber Portwood can visit with Leah. “This is where Mommy’s been living for a while,” Portwood tells her. Despite her recent legal troubles, Portwood has vowed to keep up her relationship with Shirley and their little girl as much as possible while behind bars. Good luck with that, given your five-year sentence. Hopefully Jenelle Evans and Gary Head take note, because they’re heading down the same road.
