We’ve known for quite some time that Luke Parker sucks . But for some reason, it seems The Bachelorette sleazebag had Hannah Brown fooled throughout much of his time on the show. Yes, Luke’s facade began to crumble on last week’s episode when Hannah had to ask him to tone it the f–k down so she can actually interact with some of the other guys. [ALERT: In case you haven’t figured it out already, major spoilers for Hannah Brown’s season of The Bachelorette lie ahead.] But we know that he redeems himself at some point in the weeks to come, because Luke makes it to Hannah’s final four . Which means he rides his “douchebag who found Jesus” routine all the way to the fantasy suite stage. Fortunately, it sounds like he didn’t wind up riding anything else, if you catch our meaning. The latest inside intel comes to us courtesy of the ever-reliable Reality Steve. Steve was the first to identify Hannah’s finalists, and now he has photographic evidence that Luke makes it all the way to Athens. But as with Rizzo and Kenicke before them, Hannah and Luke’s romance falls apart in Greece: As Reality Steve points out, an irate Hannah can be seen responding to an apparent assault on her character in the preview posted below. “I can’t believe you just said that to me. I don’t owe you anything at this point,” Hannah shouts. Later, we see her say, “I have had sex…and Jesus still loves me.” According to Steve, Luke had the fourth overnight date and he was sent home during the dinner portion. Hannah Brown Kicks Luke Parker Off The Bachelorette! Based on that information and Hannah’s revealing comments in the preview, it’s safe to conclude that Luke inquired as to how far Hannah went with her previous dates, and he was not happy with the results. Luke is a former player, but he’s also a born-again evangelical Christian, and he probably wouldn’t be pleased to learn that his future wife had just slept with multiple other dudes. Obviously, that’s Luke’s problem and not Hannah’s, and she absolutely did the right thing in giving him the boot. As for who receives the final rose, well … you’ll just have to wait until the season finale to find out. Just kidding, we totally know who Hannah is engaged to , and you can find that info (along with plenty of other juicy tidbits) in the gallery below: View Slideshow: The Bachelorette Spoilers: Check Out the Lucky Guy Who Wins Hannah’s Heart! [UPDATED]
Lamar Odom has come out with a memoir that contains some bonkers revelations , from his drug use to his body count. But one of his bombshells was his desire to get back with Khloe Kardashian now that her latest cheater is out of the picture. Wendy Williams is all but ordering Khloe to keep her distance. “He says he still wants to get back together with Khloe,” Wendy reveals to her captive audience. The booing that follows is deafening. She adds: “He says he loves Khloe like no other.” “He says that you'll have to talk to her about it,” Wendy says. “Khloe,” Wendy instructs. “You leave that man alone!” Wendy addresses a few other topics, including her personal fondness for Lamar. “I don’t even look at him as a low down dirty dog,” Wendy notes. “For all of the things he’s done to Khloe and the lies and things.” She also explains why she is speaking about the book herself instead of having him on as a guest. “If Lamar [were] here,” Wendy says. “I couldn’t sit back and judge him.” Wendy says that this is the case “because I feel bad for him. I’m scared for him.” “I didn't think that he and Khloe were a real relationship after only knowing each other for 30 days,” Wendy recalls. “But Khloe did love him,” she affirms. “And Khloe put everything into him.” “Khlow, you know what? Take this the best way,” Wendy says, offering some unsolicited advice. She instructs: “This is not the time for Khloe to be feeling like: 'Yup, I've got the snappin' gyro and I cook well and he gets me.'” “No,” Wendy says. “You get no points.” “It's real easy to seduce a guy like Lamar,” she adds. That may sound unkind, or even like an insult. But according to Lamar, there are about 2,000 women out there who would agree. “He's a real simple dude,” Wendy adds. “Apparently, what he wanted to do was get high,” Wendy says of Lamar. “You know what I'm saying?” “And,” she adds, Lamar wanted to “have somebody take care of him.” “And that,” Wendy assesses. “Does not give you points as a woman.” Wait, is gender now on a points-based system? We joke — Wendy is explaining that banging Lamar or even marrying him isn't exactly challenging. “It just gives you points as a kind woman,” Wendy explains. “As a caretaker” “And Khloe,” she instructs. “Move on.” “Leave this man alone,” Wendy demands. Judging from their thunderous applause at this, it sounds like Wendy's audience wholeheartedly agrees. Interestingly, it was Lamar who humiliated Khloe, and even Wendy acknowledges that Khloe was loving and affectionate to him. We'd never insist that Khloe is perfect, but it's a little odd to see people act like she's some lurking predator, ready to gobble up her ex. Or … Wendy's not a sportsball fan, but maybe her audience believes in the “Kardashian curse” for which Khloe and her sisters have been blamed? Or maybe they just think that she's bad news. That sounds a little unfair, right?

The rumors have been spreading for weeks. The chatter has been growing incessant. The blogs have been very busy. Amid this backdrop of talk about her split from fiance Christian Carino, Lady Gaga has finally broken her silence. The engagement ended and the break-up was confirmed way back in February. Neither half of the now-former couple has said much of anything in public since, however, which has only fueled the speculative fire around the Internet. “There’s no dramatic story,” an insider tried to tell People Magazine at the time — but no one wanted to buy this spin. Most gossip observers assumed the engagement simply had to end because Gaga and Bradley Cooper are clearly in love ; how else to explain their chemistry in A Star is Born? Then there were the stories that alleged Gaga grew sick of how often Carino sent her text messages . “He was jealous,” an insider previously told Us Weekly. “He was trying to find her all the time and texted her a lot. Her friends didn’t like him either.” This same source said in late winter that Gaga was the one who broke things off, emphasizing that Carino didn’t take it well. At. All. So… was there truth to this rumor? To the cheating allegations? To all those Cooper-Gaga romance articles? While performing her “Jazz & Piano” show as part of her residency in Las Vegas on Sunday evening, Gaga briefly addressed her split from ex-Carino when a song reminded her of when she was engaged. “Last time I sang this song, I had a ring on my finger, so it’ll be different this time,” the artist told those in attendance prior to delving into “Someone to Watch Over Me.” She then laughed and confirmed that she was, indeed, in love with Bradley Cooper and that she hoped to have, like, 9 of his babies. Just kidding. She only said the part we quoted above, which we guess isn’t really all that newsworthy in the end, huh? In reality, another source now claims, Gaga has been so busy of late with her career that she hasn’t really given much thought to the end of her engagement. She hasn’t really processed it just yet. “Gaga has been in such a focus on her career right now and has not even had time to address what has been happening between her and Christian, emotionally,” this Us Weekly insider explains, adding: “She has been telling those around her, ‘Let’s stay focused.’” This tabloid also writes that Gaga was initially “devastated” when the romance concluded, but that Carino had “infringed on her creative process” and she just couldn’t allow that to happen. More recently, someone in the know explained that Gaga had cut off communication from Carino. “She’s been hounded by Christian,” the mole says. “She told him not to contact her.”
Source: Natdanai Pankong / EyeEm / Getty Teen Girl Convicted Prison You may be asking yourself “ Wait, really ???” The answer is “yes.” According to DailyMail , a 16-year-old girl referred to only as “S.K.” has been convicted of child pornography charges in Maryland after she sent a video of herself giving an unidentified male some sloppy toppy. S.K. and her friends are said to have regularly sent each other non-sexual videos described as “silly” in the spirit of friendly competition. When S.K. sent a 1-minute video of herself inhaling an eggplant emoji, her friends not only shared it in school, but went and told the police! During S.K.’s initial trial back in 2016 both the state and the special court of appeals agreed that the girl had violated the law. ‘The state has an indisputable interest in protecting minors from exploitation ‘as subjects in pornographic material’ . . . whether at the hands of others or by their own conduct,’ wrote the chief judge. The Maryland Court of Appeals will make the final decision later this year after the girl’s lawyer argued that S.K. was not victim of a crime as she sent the sexually explicit video voluntarily. ‘The statute is intended as a vehicle to protect, not prosecute, minors victimized and exploited in the production of sexually explicit videos,’ Claudia Cortese defending wrote. Can you imagine having to register as a sex offender because you sent your own nudes to your friends?

It’s been clear for multiple months now that June Shannon is in need of help. The long-time reality star is seemingly unwilling to ditch horrible boyfriend Geno Doak and, even more disturbingly, was arrested in March for crack cocaine possession . But we had no idea just how serious Shannon’s issues truly were until we watched Friday night’s season finale of From Not to Hot. As previously teased, the emotional finale centered around an intervention staged for June by her concerned family members. Upon entering her sister Doe Doe’s house, Shannon found daughters Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon, Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson and Jessica – along with niece Amber – waiting to speak with her about all that’s been going on in her life. June was extremely wary as soon as she walked into the room. “If this intervention doesn’t work, she’s mentally going to have an actual breakdown,” said Pumpkin. The 19-year old then put on a brave face and opened way up to her mother. “Physically, it’s like you don’t care about your health,” she said. “I’m concerned about you. We care about you. Alana cares about you, Jessica cares about you, Doe Doe cares about you and it’s like everybody’s trying to get you back healthy and you have tunnel vision and the only person you see is Geno.” Pumpkin even brought up the credible cheating allegations against Geno , but Mama June was in total denial. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she simply replied. The floor was then turned over to Honey Boo Boo. At just 13 years old, she stood there and explained to her mother that her decision to live with Pumpkin was “not by choice.” Tearfully, Honey Boo Boo added: “I swear to God mama it’s not by choice.” June Shannon Begged by Daughter to Seek Help: Do You Want to DIE?!? Continued the former child beauty pageant competitor, whose “career” in that field is what caused her family to land a reality show in the first place, way back in the day: “I would love to come home and stay with you, tell you about my day, but I can’t do that because I’m scared. I’m scared to stay at your house.” You would think that such an emotional plea from her young daughter would have an impact on June — but it merely caused her to exit the scene. She left the house and went off on therapist Dr. Ish, executive producer Adam Freeman and executive producer Moriah, admitting that she wasn’t the same person she used to be. “Just ask Geno how many times I sit there and cry to him and be like, ‘I hate my f-cking self. I want to f-cking kill the person that I am now,'” she cried. “Because I don’t know who I am. I don’t know if I want to ‘kill myself’ kill myself or I want to kill the person that has took over my body.” Heartbreaking stuff, right? Eventually, the group did actually convince Shannon to enter an in-patient treatment facility. That night, they drove her to the center, which was hours away in North Carolina, and watched with hope as June checked into the facility. But then this hope was quickly dashed. “After only 12 hours, June checks herself out,” the show revealed on the episode. “Geno picks her up. Their whereabouts are unknown.” Two days later, in Alabama, Shannon and Doak were arrested on the aforementioned drug possession charges. At the same time, Doak was arrested alongside Shannon on a charge of domestic violence. “As soon as Geno got Mama from the treatment center, I knew it was over from there. Mama just got charged with a possession of crack cocaine, which is a felony,” Pumpkin said on the finale “Since Mama June got arrested in Alabama, she has to stay there until she goes to court,” added Doe Doe. The series then revealed that Shannon appeared in court and “faces felony charges for drug possession” while “Geno faces felony charges for drug possession and additional domestic assault charges. Geno is ordered by the court to stay away from June.” And yet… the two continued to hang out, as documented below: View Slideshow: June Shannon: Living Out of Vile Hotel Rooms with Crazy BF Geno After Crack Arrest!? According to producers, June is currently in Alabama, where she is awaiting trial. “June remains in Alabama. According to June, she’s not allowed to leave the state until after her hearing,” the show stated. “She could face several years of jail time.” For the time being, Honey Boo Boo is still living with her sister… but praying that her mother bounces back at some point. “So I really hope this is rock bottom for mama because once you hit rock bottom, there’s no more going deeper – you can only go up,” the 13-year old said in a confessional. “I really hope mama’s just thinking I just got arrested. I need to get it together. I need to get my sh-t together. If this isn’t her wake-up call. I could possibly lose her forever.” “As of right now, my hopes for mama is honestly for her to get it together and her to leave Geno and just all-in-all get herself back to where she once was,” concluded Pumpkin.

Earlier this month, Kim Kardashian welcomed her fourth child , Psalm West. Baby #4 is keeping her plenty busy these days. But Keeping Up With The Kardashians was filmed months ago, and at the time, Kim was more worried about Khloe's drama with Tristan. In this sneak peek for Sunday's new episode, Kim confesses that she's afraid that this very public scandal has been too much for her. This clip begins with Malika Haqq walking down the hall to speak with Kim, who is lounging on a series of beds made to look like a giant couch. “Going to Law school is a lot, a lot, a lot,” Kim says, sharing why she's feeling so tired. “But the baby is due in May.” “So,” Kim explains. “I'm excited to get the break — the baby break — because you get to take time off.” Kim, who is worth a third of a billion dollars and could take any time off she wanted, is looking forward to an excuse to wear pajamas all day. But after that brief preamble, this sneak peek klip for Sunday's new episode gets into Khloe's relationship drama. “We had like numerous readings and they were all so weird,” Kim recalls. She shares an anecdote about herself that we'll get into below, because her words about Khloe's experience are a little more pressing. “And then the last one told her that she has a lot of hurt in her heart,” Kim reveals. “Because her guy has really hurt her.” “And,” she adds. “She said that she's been going back and forth and can't make a decision in the relationship.” Kim continues: “and I so feel that.” “I think I'm always concerned about Khloe,” Kim admits during the Keeping Up With The Kardashians clip. “Obviously, everything that they've been through,” she expresses. “I don't think you can just forget about it.” “Its definitely not easy when everything is so public,” Kim points out. Kim is no stranger to having personal drama play out in the spotlight. Like Khloe, it's defined her life for over a decade. It's a huge part of her career. But she has a lot of confidence (konfidence?) that Khloe will continue to try to tackle her drama on her own terms. “She definitely tries to handle it on her own,” Kim observes. “But,” Kim says. “I just worry about her.” “As a best friend,” she adds. “I feel like she can really open up to Malika, you know, spend some time.” Maybe. But some people are too embarrassed by personal indecision to open up, even to a best friend. Honestly, the funniest part about all of this is that Kim segues into this “candid” conversation by talking about their experiences with mediums in Bali. She talks about how one reading that she received told her that she would have another boy — and that he would be her father reincarnated. We have to wonder if Kim is going to spend her literal entire life wondering if baby Psalm is actually her father reborn. Oh wait, maybe Psalm will see this episode one day, or at least hear about this reading from someone. That would be a hell of a thing to grow up hearing.
More bad news for R. Kelly, as the law continues to close in on the embattled singer and alleged rapist. On Thursday, prosecutors in Cook County, Illinois charged Kelly with 11 sex crimes in addition to the allegations he had previously been fighting. The charges include 4 counts of aggravated criminal sexual assault, 2 counts of criminal sexual assault by force, 3 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a victim between 13 and 16 years old, and 2 are aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Prior to today’s indictments, Kelly was already set to stand trial for a slew of other charges ranging from tax evasion to sex trafficking. One of the accusers identified by her initials in Thursday’s court filing is believed to be a previous alleged victim who has now provided new information to prosecutors. Other charges are believed to be related to previous allegations that Kelly assaulted four girls between the ages of 13 and 16. It’s unknown at this time if any of the allegations are related to a Kelly sex tape which allegedly showed the 52-year-old engaged in sex acts with multiple underage victims. While Kelly himself has yet to comment publicly, a rep for the singer says he is not concerned about today’s developments: “They are old charges. We knew they were coming and this was happening,” said Darrell Johnson. “He’s not going to jail. We don’t have the full details yet as waiting on discovery.” However, an anonymous source closely connected to the case told Radar Online today that this is the latest step forward in prosecutors’ ongoing efforts to ensure that Kelly goes to prison for a very long time. “There are two separate federal grand juries empaneled. Several victims provided testimony to those juries. Mr. Kelly, you must face justice that is long overdue,” said the source While sexual assault allegations against Kelly have been public knowledge for over a decade, public outrage reached an all-time high following the release of the 2018 documentary Surviving R. Kelly . Now, emboldened accusers have banded together to ensure that justice is served. Kelly has remained silent in the public sphere ever since his infamous interview with Gayle King did further damage to his battered public image. “Lots of things wrong when it comes to women that I apologize, but I apologized in those relationships at the time that I was in the relationship, OK?” Kelly told King before suffering a violent emotional breakdown on camera. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as more information becomes available. View Slideshow: R. Kelly Addresses Sex Abuse Accusations in 19-Minute Song
