Casey Affleck Oscar Win: Slammed By Brie Larson, Twitter

There’s no contest with regard to the most memorable moment from the 2017 Academy Awards , That title goes to the jaw-dropping “Steve Harvey moment” that ended the night, as presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway mistakenly announced La La Land as Best Picture , when the award actually belonged to Moonlight. But while that epic goof-up might be grabbing the majority of today’s headlines, it wasn’t the only controversial moment surrounding one of the night’s top prizes. Casey Affleck took home the Best Actor Oscar for his heart-wrenching performance in Manchester By the Sea, but not everyone was thrilled to see the 41-year-old step out from under his older brother’s shadow. The dark cloud of some heinous sexual harassment accusations loomed large over Affleck’s Oscar campaign, and many felt the actor should be removed from consideration as a result. The alleged incidents took place in 2010, while Affleck was directing the mockumentary film I’m Still Here with his then-brother-in-law, Joaquin Phoenix. The matter was settled out of court, but Affleck’s accusers maintain that he abused his power and persistently subjected them to harassment and other inappropriate behavior. As is customary, Affleck’s award was presented by Brie Larson, who took home the Best Actress prize for Room at last year’s awards. Larson played a sexual assault survivor in the film and she’s been an outspoken advocate for victims’ rights throughout her career. Needless to say, the Academy’s decision to put her in a position where she would be presenting an award to an alleged sexual predator didn’t sit well with many viewers. Larson’s apparent disdain for Affleck, however, was widely praised: Casey Affleck Wins Best Actor Many noted that Larson didn’t applaud when Affleck received his award, and it’s being widely interpreted as the actress’ way of subtly protesting the win.  “Y’all made Brie Larson, an advocate for sexual assault survivors, present Casey Affleck, a sexual predator, with an Oscar,” tweeted one viewer. Another wrote simply: “BRIE LARSON NOT CLAPPING IS MY HERO” Affleck’s nomination sparked countless debates about where the arts community should draw the line in terms of behavior so inexcusable that it should end a career. That debate will likely rage on following his win last night. But at least those who were outraged by Affleck’s victory can take solace in knowing that however subtle her understated her show of disapproval may have been, Brie Larson made her feelings known on the night’s biggest stage.

Oscars 2017 Best Picture: The Winner Is… Incorrect?

Well… that was awkward. The climactic moment of the 2017 Academy Awards proved to be both anti-climactic and rather historic, although not for the reasons many expected. No, La La Land did not set the record for most Oscars won in a single year. Nor did it even win the trophy for Best Picture. But presented Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway DID initially call out La La Land as the winner of last night's most prestigious honor, prompting that movie's cast and crew to go out on stage and accept the award. Except there was a mistake. Beatty had been given the wrong envelope. After Jimmy Kimmel, Beatty and an Oscars representative came out to whishper in his ear about what happened, La La Land producer Jordan Horowitz took to the microphone and said: “Guys, I'm sorry. There's a mistake. Moonlight, you guys won Best Picture. This is not a joke. I'm afraid they read the wrong thing.” It was understandably confusing. We needed to see a close-up of the actual envelope to actually believe that Moonlight was the Best Picture champion. “Guys. This is very unfortunate, what happened,” Kimmel told the crowd, joking, “Personally, I blame Steve Harvey for this .” Said auditing firm PricewaterhouseCoopers in a statement: “We sincerely apologize to Moonlight, La La Land, Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, and Oscar viewers for the error that was made during the award announcement for Best Picture,” it read. “The presenters had mistakenly been given the wrong category envelope and when discovered, was immediately corrected. We are currently investigating how this could have happened, and deeply regret that this occurred.” What a bizarre occurrence. What a huge upset! Watch it all unfold below:

Leah Messer: Marrying Jeremy Calvert Was the Biggest Mistake of My Life!

You really have to give it up for Leah Messer — girl has come a long way. Sure, she still has a little scandal every now and then. Every once in a while she'll get some hate for being “too thin,” or people will get angry with her for putting too much makeup on her daughters . But when you remember that not that long ago, Leah was losing custody of her twins because she was unable to get them to school on time or feed them breakfast, it doesn't seem all that bad, does it? Yes, Leah has really grown up a lot lately, and she proves that in this new Teen Mom 2 clip. In the clip, she meets up with Jeremy Calvert to exchange their daughter. Jeremy takes to opportunity to let her know about his engagement to Brooke Wehr . It's a little awkward at first — Jeremy's obviously hoping to get a big reaction from Leah — but she just tells him congratulations and that she's happy for him. Then she tells Jeremy to make sure he wants to spend the rest of his life with Brooke, since Brooke would be their kid's stepmother. It sounds a little strange at first, but hey, Leah had two failed marriages by the tender age of 23. If anyone can talk about being sure about getting hitched, it's her. She tells him to be careful since he's “a very irrational person,” and he gets angry. But we all know she's not wrong . Jeremy starts to tell her that she's irrational, and she agrees — she tells him that “we were very irrational, and that was the biggest mistake of my life.” See Leah give it to Jeremy in the clip below:

Khloe Kardashian on Vacation with Tristan Thompson: Are They Engaged?!

Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson sure have had quite the whirlwind romance, right? But to be fair, it seems like Khloe doesn’t know how to do romance any other way. After all, she married Lamar Odom a few weeks after meeting him, remember? So the fact that Khloe and Tristan have made it six months without a wedding is actually kind of impressive. But though they’ve made it this far, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll take their time before getting married. Because if we’re to believe the latest round of rumors (and all the rounds of rumors that have come before), an engagement will happen any minute now. Maybe even this very weekend! See, Khloe and Tristan are on vacation right now in Jamaica. We know because Khloe shared this photo of them together: She captioned it “My love” with a heart emoji. Adorable, right? And the beach they’re on looks absolutely gorgeous — a perfect spot for a proposal, we’d imagine. It sounds like Khloe has imagined the same thing. According to sources who spoke with Radar, she’s been “begging” Tristan to propose . “Khloe already has the exact ring picked out,” an insider said, “as well as the jeweler, and Tristan knows this.” But while Khloe seems so happy and so ready to take her relationship to the next level, her friends and family are reportedly not so psyched about it. They’re concerned because a couple of months ago another woman gave birth to Tristan’s child , and, you know, that’s a lot to take in. Another issue is that “Khloe is in Cleveland 90 percent of the time with him and she has completely ditched everyone.” The source says that Khloe is “so desperate to get re-married and start a family. It seems like that is all that she wants!” And, well, yeah. Khloe has made it clear for a long time now that she’s wanted to have a family. She wants to have a baby so much that we’ve heard she plans on getting pregnant this year, “with or without a man.” It’s looking more and more like she’s going to have a partner in this though, huh? If Khloe really is sure about Tristan, if she feels good about getting this serious this fast, then sure, a beautiful beach proposal this weekend would be great for her. Let’s just hope that things never end as badly for Khloe and Tristan as they did with Khloe and Lamar. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson Make Out. HARD.

Nicki Minaj: Subject of a VICIOUS New Track from Remy Ma!

Nicki Minaj and fellow rapper Remy Ma are not friends. Not even a little bit. Not even at all. We know this because yesterday, two new songs featuring verses from Nicki were released — “Swalla” by Jason Derulo and “Make Love” with Gucci Mane — and in both songs, Nicki slammed Remy Ma. The disses were pretty basic, things like “every line sucks” and something about an album flopping. But then Remy Ma turned the tables and released a seven-minute track entirely about Nicki. And it is, as the kids would say, savage . The song is called “ShETHER,” a twist on Nas' old takedown track about Jay Z. And it is a thing of beauty. At one point, Remy Ma raps about Nicki's relationship with Meek Mill : “I saw Meek at All-Star, he told me your ass drop. He couldn't f-ck you for three months because your ass dropped. Now I don't think you understand how bad her ass got. The implants that you had put in her ass popped.” She also touched on more of Nicki's relationships: “Been through mad fools, you disloyal hoochie. Now all of a sudden you back with Drake and Tunechi? After you said you sucked his d-ck, you back with Gucci. Who next, Puff, Deb or 50? You a A-list groupie.” She even touched on the topic of Nicki's brother and those rape charges . It's bad. Hear Remy Ma air out all her grievances in the track below:

Christina El Moussa Throws Subtle Shade at Tarek, Makes Heartbreaking Confession

According to a new report, Christina El Moussa is no longer running her tongue over the body of Gary Anderson. She and the man she dated for a few months after splitting from husband Tarek have ended their relationship . With her tongue therefore free to do other things, Christina has decided to not bite it. In other, less confusing terms, what we’re saying is this: El Moussa hopped on Instagram this afternoon and hurled some shade in the direction of Tarek, her estranged ex and ongoing Flip or Flop co-star. Both of these HGTV employees have been in the news a lot over the past few days, with Tarek and Christina actually giving duel interviews on Today and Good Morning America, respectively, on Tuesday. In his pre-taped sit-down, delved into detail regarding the strange incident last May in which he stormed out of his house with a gun , following an argument with Christina. He said he was never suicidal and simply wanted to protect himself against wild animals in the woods while he blew off some steam via a hike. Tarek also admitted that it’s been a little awkward filming Flip or Flop with Christina, but that both sides agree on what’s most important these days: “The number one goal is to co-parent our children. We have to make sure we remain friendly.” Tarek El Moussa Explains Gun Incident: What Was He Thinking?!? As you can see in the above clip, Tarek didn’t say anything too controversial in his Today Show interview. Nevertheless, Christina definitely appears to have taken a shot at her soon-to-be-ex-husband in her latest Instagram post. It’s a photo of a very serious looking tiger, staring into camera, with the following words plastered over his face: Be selective in your battles. Sometimes peace is better than being right. Our translation here? I’m right. Tarek is wrong. But I’m gonna take the high road, place my children’s well-being above all else and keep the peace. Even though, remember… I’m right! What has Tarek said or done that prompted Christina’s shade? We can’t say for certain at the moment. Elsewhere, Christina opened up to People Magazine for its latest issue, admitting that communication between her and Tarek fell apart to such a degree that they didn’t even drive to the Flip or Flop set together toward the end of their marriage. She doesn’t sound bitter at this point, however. “It is what it is and we are going through a divorce and eventually we will be dating other people,” El Moussa tells the publication , adding: “I’m happy for him and whatever steps he takes in his life and I just hope he’s happy.” In a newly-released excerpt from the cover story, Christina also tells a sad tale about the separation and its aftermath. When she first moved out, Christina said she kept the reasons why pretty “vague” in talking to daughter Taylor, which worked for a little bit because the family often renovated their house and would live elsewhere temporarily. Later, however, once the couple decided that reconciliation was not on the table, Christina says: “Taylor asked if we could get back together. We had to explain that sometimes couples get divorced but that she and Brayden are our No. 1 priority. We’ll always be a family.” That’s a sad thing to hear, but a few months after Tarek and Christina called it quits, it sounds as if six-year Taylor and 17-month old Brayden are doing well. “Our kids are amazing … our kids are transitioning well,” Christina said Tuesday on Good Morning America. “Tarek and I are friends and we have a lot of support from our family. The kids are doing great.” View Slideshow: Christina El Moussa Photos: Flip or Flop Hotness!
