Arrow Season 1 Episode 23 Recap: A Happy Ending?!?

$
0
0

So... who saw that ending coming? Anyone? Anyone at all?

You'd think we'd be referring to some wild and crazy twist, turn or death at the conclusion of Arrow Season 1 Episode 23. But it's actually the exact opposite.

We'll get to that in a few moments, though.

To open the appropriately-titled “My Name is Oliver Queen,” Ra’s al Ghul, a captive Nyssa and Oliver were on a plan headed for Startling City, where the plan was to destroy the area via bioweapon.

(Felicity, Diggle and and company, meanwhile, survived their “poisoning,” having been secretly inoculated by Malcolm upon their imprisonment in Nanda Parbat.)

Oliver went ahead and sabotaged the plan, prepared to kill everyone on board… including himself.

But we then learned that Ra’s was lying about his intentions. His actual goal was to release the weapon in order to murder Damien Darhk, who fled town prior to the onslaught (and who we can envision causing big problems for Oliver next year alongside H.I.V.E.).

A struggle ensues. Ra's uses the only parachute to exit the plan. And Oliver and Nyssa land it sort of gently in town.

Eventually, Oliver and Ra's end up drawing swords against each other, a battle Oliver wins, finally doing away forever with his long-time nemesis.

But then the city cops shoot Oliver full of leads! And he starts to plummet to his near-death!

Fortunately, A.T.O.M. swoops in for the save. Except it isn't Ray Palmer inside that suit, it's Felicity!

Naturally, in just a handful of minute, she got strapped into the suit...  learned how to take off... and navigated to the point that she could pull off a 90-degree turn up alongside the waterfall.

A bit of a stretch, Arrow writers.

We later see that later Malcolm has taken over as the new Ra’s, while Ray is playing with some new “miniaturization” technology on the A.T.O.M. suit ... when it and the upper floors of Palmer Technologies blow up!

(Not to worry, though, Ray will play a role on the new CW series, Legends of Tomorrow.)

So this is where we shocking end: Oliver gives up being Arrow and drives away into the sunset with Felicity.

Seriously, watch Arrow online and be impressed by the lack of a cliffhanger. The final concludes with Oliver uttering these words:

"I returned home with only one goal — to save my city. And I did. But now it’s time for me to be someone else. Something else.”

He then has two more words for Felicity: I'm happy.


Jill Duggar Baby Photo: 5 Weeks, 1 Day & Counting!

Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard are at it again. Their famous chalkboard has made a return ... this time with their baby son Israel in the photo!

Israel and Jill Dillard

Having welcomed their baby April 6, Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard are loving every minute of parenthood and documenting it on Instagram.

We would expect nothing less from the duo. So many things are banned by the Duggar family, but social media is clearly not one of them.

Jill recreated the chalkboard pose she often did while chronicling her pregnancy, with her husband taking and sharing the photos online.

"Don't worry, we won't be doing weekly photos until he's 18," Derick joked.

"#jillmdillard #israeldaviddillard #babydilly #5weeks."

Earlier this week, the proud mom celebrated Israel's first-month birthday by posting an image of her little baby boy wearing a lion onesie.

"Happy first month birthday to our handsome big guy!" she gushed. "@derickdillard I hope and pray he grows up to be just like his daddy!"

Think these two are in love at all?

When she's not posting Jill Duggar baby photos, she's celebrating motherhood, and all the joys, wonderment and fatigue that come along with it.

As the calendar would have it, this past Sunday was of course Mother's Day.

She was joined by Israel's grandmothers, her mom Michelle Duggar and her mother-in-law, Cathy Dillard, for the very special occasion.

Said Jill: "Happy Mother's Day to my mom and all the other mamas ! I am blessed beyond measure to have such a Godly, selfless, caring mother!"

Derick added: "Happy Mother's Day mom (& grandma now)! We love you!"

If you watch 19 Kids and Counting online, you know Cathy recently battled cancer and was not in good shape, so to have her there is extra special.

It's such a relief that she pulled through, and can share in this wonderful period in her son's life, because clearly she means a lot to Derick.

Check out all the photos of baby Israel in the gallery below ... and above!

Kourtney Kardashian Flaunts Giant Cleavage, Snake

A new picture of Kourtney Kardashian and a snake has surfaced on Instagram.

And, no, we're not talking about Scott Disick for once!

Kourtney Kardashian and a Snake

While hanging out in Mexico this week, the reality star and mother of three young children somehow ended up with a Burmese Python around her neck.

Girls Gone Wild creator and infamous family friend Joe Francis snapped this photo of Kourtney spending time with her unexpected friend.

“Great picture of @kourtneykardash and @letthelordbewithyou from last weekend @casaaramara,” Francis captioned the image, referencing Disick and making the same joke we made above.

Kourtney, Joe and company are on vacation at Casa Aramara in Punita Mita.

And we're not sure what is a stranger sight:

  1. Kourtney with a giant ass snake.
  2. Or Kourtney in a one-piece.

Typically, the beauty would be glad to add to her collection of Kourtney Kardashian bikini photos while on a tropical trip.

But she gave birth to daughter Reign just four months ago and we understand it will take her awhile to get her full confidence back.

“I like to take my time and not try to put too much pressure on myself, but it's hard,” Kardashian recently told Harper’s Bazaar while talking about her post-baby workouts.

“I think I forget every time - you give birth and you want your stomach to be flat again."

On the flip side, we just saw Scott fondling Kourtney on Instagram in another photo in which she looks very far from shy about her curvaceous bod.

So don't feel too bad for her, as she doesn't lack for confidence.

Kim Richards: Charged for Drunken Idiocy, Facing Prison Time

Kim Richards may or may not return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills next season.

But now the reality star has an even more pressing issue on her hands:

She may or may not go to jail as a result of a drunken rampage a few weeks ago.

Kim Richards on RHOBC

As previously documented in detail, Richards was arrested in mid-April after getting upset while watching one of her show's reunion specials.

She therefore drove over to The Beverly Hills Hotel, downed a great deal of alcohol, got booted from an on-site restaurant, locked herself in a bathroom and allegedly kicked a police officer upon being detained.

In the month since, Richards has cried on Dr. Phil, checked into rehab, requested to leave rehab and said she may return to rehab after her daughter's wedding in Mexico.

In other words: Kim is a mess. And the following news is unlikely to help matters.

The L.A. County District Attorney has charged Richards with public intoxication, resisting arrest and battery on a cop.

Richards could be sentenced to over two years behind bars as a result of this incident.

Moreover, it’s hard to see producers bringing her back with such legal problems hanging over her head.

Then again, actually being in jail hasn't stopped Teresa Giudice from giving interviews and appearing on magazine covers.

So there may be public relations hope for Kim Richards yet!

Corey Simms and Miranda Patterson are expecting their first child together in what has to be another tough blow for the troubled Leah Messer.

Leah Loses It

The Teen Mom 2 star and Simms are divorced, as fans know, and she remarried Jeremy Calvert ... who she is also on the verge of divorcing.

So it's not like there's anything scandalous about Simms and Miranda Patterson, his second wife, having a baby. But it can't be easy on Leah.

The 25-year-old father of Leah’s five-year-old twin girls Ali and Aleeah is expecting with his spouse of two years, according to In Touch.

“They’re so excited,” a source says. “It’s a dream come true!”

The couple will welcome their new addition early this winter.

Meanwhile, Messer has seen better days to say the least.

Leah and Jeremy Calvert split, many believe for good, this spring following a long stretch of dueling cheating allegations and other drama.

Currently in rehab for undisclosed reasons, Messer has been a mess for some time. Meanwhile, Calvert has been busy playing the field.

Ever since he says Leah cheated on him with her ex (not Corey), he's been hollering at Brittany Musick, then Melissa Marie over Twitter.

It is widely believed that Leah, who has a third daughter by Jeremy, is presently seeking help for an addiction to prescription medication.

Here's hoping she gets the help she needs, and that she pulls it together, because life is not going to get any less complicated for her ...

Harry Shearer to Exit The Simpsons After 26 Seasons

Might the man responsible for some of the most memorable The Simpsons quotes of all-time never utter another word for Fox?

This, sadly, appears to be the case.

Shearer, Simpsons

Harry Shearer, the comic and veteran actor who has provided the voices for endless iconic characters since the very first season of The Simpsons, hinted strongly via Twitter last night that his time on the series has come to an end.

First, Shearer cites The Simpsons creator and wrote: from James L.  Brooks' lawyer: "show will go on,  Harry will not be part of it, wish him the best.

He then added:

This because I wanted what we've always had: the freedom to do other work. Of course, I wish him the very best.

The use of pronouns in that second Tweet make it a bit confusing, but it sounds as if a problem arose because Shearer wanted to work on other projects while remaining on The Simpsons.

Last week, Fox renewed The Simpsons for Seasons 27 and 28.

Shearer, meanwhile, is the man behind such mainstays as Mr. Burns, Ned Flanders, Seymour Skinner and Kent Brockman.

His role in 2013's "Four Regrettings and a Funeral" episode won him an Emmy for Outstanding Character Voiceover Performance.

Whitney Bischoff and Chris Soules: Ready to Start Plowing (on the Farm)!

Whitney Bischoff has joined Chris Soules on his family's farm in Arlington, Iowa, and she is ready to get plowin' ... if you know what we mean!

We mean it's springtime, and if you want any crops to harvest by the time summer gives way to fall, you best be tending those fields ASAP.

Prince and Princess Farming

The Bachelor's embattled (at least in the tabloids) duo are back together on his farm in Iowa, perhaps putting the breakup rumors to rest for good.

While there are new reports simmering that a Chris and Whitney breakup will be announced after The Bachelorette premiere, it doesn't look like it.

If so, the Soules and Bischoff showmance has to be the most convincing fake relationship in modern times, and Chris is a very good actor.

He returned home from his Dancing with the Stars elimination this month in the center of planting season and just in time for Mother's Day.

Soules and his fiancee of six months were planning to surprise his mom Linda Rae Soules, and take her out to dinner in their hometown.

"This is my last hurrah before the finale and I'm going to go home and get some farming. I've got to come back and rehearse," he told Us.

Soules, 33, will be back in L.A. for the Dancing with the Stars finale Monday and Tuesday, but then it's back to Arlington and likely for good.

Despite reports suggesting that he's fame-hungry and staying in L.A., the only thing he seems hungry for to us are Whitney and crops.

Not necessarily in that order. But maybe.

Bischoff, 29, also shared a photo en route to the Soules family home. "Road trippin #iowabound," she wrote on her Instagram Sunday.

Life back on the farm has been picture-perfect, according to Soules, with Bischoff joining him in the Hawkeye State and getting to work!

"Her first day planting corn! @whitb624 #farmerintraining," Soules wrote Wednesday, alongside a cute photo with the fertility nurse.

"She's a natural," he proudly noted.

Like any Bachelor or Bachelorette couple, they have had to fend off rumors of trouble in their relationship and intense scrutiny at every turn.

Soon that will all end ... maybe.

"We're together, we're in love and we're handling this like two adults," Chris said, and by all accounts, he's right. Or is he?! Think it'll last? VOTE:

Qdoba Employee Helps Disabled Patron Eat, Act of Kindness Goes Viral

Ready to feel a little bit better about the world we live in?

Yes, you can still be depressed over the fact that a Kim Kardashian selfie book exists. Or that some people are choosing to give money to the New England Patriots over... pretty much any other cause on Earth.

But at least we've got Ridge Quarles.

Watch the following video to see what kind actions this Qdoba employee took toward a disabled customer. And then just try not to smile...

Quarles, who worked as a shift manager at a location in Louisville, first helped a woman in a wheelchair get her order and find her seat inside the Mexican food eatery.

Because she was a regular, Quarles and other employees knew her order by heart and always kept a close eye on the unnamed woman any time she stopped by.

This time, however, Quarles asked if there was anything else she needed before leaving her table - and she replied by asking if he could help her eat.

"He didn't stop to think about, 'Well, should I help her, should I not?' He just went over, put the gloves on and started feeding her," recounted a fellow customer, who was so moved by the incident that he filmed it on his phone.

This witness, Dr. David Jones, went on to gush over the act of kindness to local NBC affiliate WAVE3:

"It seems to me that if everybody in the world would just use the little simple gift that they have to maybe benefit somebody else, think what the world would be like."

Much to the surprise of Quarles, the footage has gone viral.

But he's happy to help spread the message behind it.

"I'm very glad to have had the opportunity to impact lives around me," Quarles wrote on Facebook. "Go out and help someone today and pay it forward. Happy day everyone!"


Gia Giudice to Tell Teresa About Joe Cheating on Prison Phone Call?!

Joe and Teresa Giudice’s oldest daughter, Gia, is reportedly crushed by her father's cheating ways and plans to tell her mom over the phone ASAP.

Gia Giudice on Instagram
Teresa and Joe Giudice Instagram

While Joe Giudice cheating rumors are nothing new - before or during Teresa's stint in prison - this time he appears to have been caught red handed.

Strip club employee Samary Graulau has been outed as his 27-year-old paramour, and he'll he hard pressed to try to explain away this one.

After Radar caught the couple on a date and published the images and info, Gia Giudice was obviously taken aback and at a loss for words.

The 14-year-old feels she has no choice but to reveal her father' transgressions during a scheduled phone call to her mother in prison.

"Gia is on the Internet 24/7, and has a smart phone, and will have definitely seen the pictures of her dad with another woman," says a source.

“Joe doesn’t ever think he will get caught, and believes he can just do whatever he wants ... He is definitely living the life of a single man.”

"There is no doubt whatsoever that Gia will tell Teresa about it during a scheduled phone call, or via email," as soon as she gets a chance.

We imagine something along these lines will be the response ...

Teresa doesn’t have access to the Internet in Danbury, the source notes, but "inmates will have also heard about it from friends and family.”

Basically, it's either Gia Giudice tells her mom or she hears about it from someone else, which would be even worse. Continues the insider:

“Teresa is absolutely powerless to do anything, obviously because she is locked up. Phone time is only available during scheduled times."

"For Gia to be put in the middle of [their] drama is just sad. Teresa will grill Gia about Joe, and if she has witnessed anything suspicious.”

As we said earlier, this is more than typical tabloid gossip Joe can laugh off. Eyewitnesses such as Stephanie Palacios saw Joe on a date.

“The way he and his date were conversing, you wouldn’t talk that way to a family member or friend,” Palacios told the celebrity news site.

“Even my boyfriend thought something was going on. They had chemistry.”

Sad chemistry, considering he has four young daughters ... it should be interesting to see what happens when Teresa gets out, and Joe goes in.

So... did Olivia do it?

Did she successfully take down her father to close out Scandal Season 4?

Simply put, as you'll note in our recap below: eh, kind of...

On Scandal Season 4 Episode 22, picked right up from last week, with Mellie taking her meeting with Rowan. Once he starts to run his “causes” by her, the man masquerading as Damascus Bainbridge makes his agenda clear:

He has a lot of dirt on both Mellie and Fitz and, in exchange for keeping it a secret, he wants the name of the panelists on the B613 grand jury.

Mellie gives in and tasks Lizzie with digging them up.

Oops, though, because this led to a bus shuttling the jurors to be gunned down... by Huck. Because Rowan had made death threats against his family.

In the wake of this execution, Lizzie, tells Fitz that Mellie is working with Rowan and that the First Lady was complicit in the slaughter, to which Fitz screams at the First Lady:

Get out of my (White) House!

Mellie did win the Senate seat in the end. But my doing even more than selling her soul, we'd say.

Rowan also threatened Cyrus this week, threatening the Chief of Staff to force him to silence the B613 takedown campaign.

Cyrus acquiesces, even targeting his attorney general’s “pressure point," Abby.

In response, David compels Olivia and Jake (who has been detained by the CIA after attempting to get its director involved) to recant any statements - or else.

Did anyone come out on top in this finale? Yes.

Olivia failed to get the CIA involved in taking down B613. But she did land Elijah Pope behind bars - on embezzlement charges.

She also was prompted by Jake to go after what she is "owed" in order to be with the man she loves back.

And so we close with Liv  appearing on the White House balcony, "Here Comes the Sun" playing in the background.

What did everyone think of this finale? You can watch Scandal online to relive every second and you can Comment away below!

B.B. King Dies: Blues Legend Was 89

Legendary guitarist B.B. King, who brought the blues from the Mississippi Delta to the mainstream, has passed away at the age of 89.

King, B.B.

Some of King's children had been feuding with his longtime manager, Laverne Toney, about the music great's medical care and finances.

This month, Patty King accused Toney of elder abuse, a claim that was eventually shot down in court, but highlighted King's sad situation.

B.B. had been at home in hospice care since May 1.

Long regarded as one of the greatest musicians in American history, King became an global sensation with his hit 1970 "The Thrill Is Gone."

He recorded countless albums both solo and with other famous musicians such as Carlos Santana, Eric Clapton, U2, and Sheryl Crow.

A prolific performer, King toured almost non-stop for more than 60 years with Lucille, his guitar (actually a range of black Gibson guitars).

He backed off his road schedule only last year.

Peerless even among fellow music icons, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987, and won 15 Grammy Awards.

He also holds a Presidential Medal of Arts, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom to his name as part of his amazing legacy. R.I.P.

One Direction on Zayn Malik Departure: We Were Angry!

One Direction has finally opened way up about Zayn Malik taking his beautiful voice and leaving the group several weeks ago.

How did they feel when they first heard the news?

“We were a little bit angry,” Liam Payne told James Corden on The Late Late Show, adding:

"We were surprised, but I think we all knew the general vibe that Zayn was feeling. There were certain parts of this job that Zayn loved and certain parts of the job that he didn't.

"If you don't like your job, you've got to follow your heart sometimes and go where you need to go. There's no argument with that."

There does remain a mystery as to why Malik left, however.

He said via statement that he just wants to be a "normal 22-year old" for awhile. But is he really recording a solo album? Was he fired for drug and alcohol use?!?

Louis Tomlinson, meanwhile, engaged in a public Twitter beef with Malik this month, slamming his former colleague as immature.

Where do things stand now between the hunks?

“I’ve never been very good at biting my tongue,” Tomlinson said. “It's just one of those things. Twitter's great for connecting with the fans but also if you feel like saying something you probably shouldn't, it's also good for that as well.

"Or bad in this case."

He added that the group is in touch now with Malik and is on "good terms" with him.

It has already been confirmed that a new One Direction album is on the way, but did the band ever think about splitting for good after Zayn left?

"The four of us love every part of it and the shows have been great on the tour," Niall Horan said. "We're looking forward to bringing out a new record, going on more tours and stuff and we're really enjoying it."

Scott Disick: Fat-Shaming Kourtney Kardashian?

Is Scott Disick actually fat-shaming his three-time baby mama Kourtney Kardashian online? That's how some fans are interpreting his recent actions ...

Kourtney Bikini Pic
Kourtney and Scott Circa 2010

We recently saw a photo of Scott fondling Kourtney on vacation in Mexico, which certainly implied that all is well between the celebrity couple.

But Disick apparently makes no secret of being super tough on her body, throwing shade subtly by randomly sharing bikini pics of her from 2010.

Are we reaching here? Possibly a bit, but his partner was quick to follow up with a post saying that she needed “to start back hard core in the gym.”

According to an insider, the father of Mason, 5, Penelope, 2 and five-month old Reign has been a non-stop, relentless critic of Kourtney physically:

“Scott is always trying to remind Kourtney of how hot she used to be."

“It is totally unfair because she had three children that were his doing, and for her to be able to look like she did prior to having the kids is just impossible.”

“She is beautiful just the way she is and her friends are constantly telling her to just ignore his insults. But it is hard [when it's from Scott]."

Fans of the beauty know Kourtney Kardashian's weight was revealed to be 116 lbs. (quite healthy for a 5'0" woman), and have supported her.

One follower responded to her Instagram gym comment as such:

“Start back?? You look incredible!! What’s there to change?”

Apparently for Scott, quite a lot, as if he should talk.

“Ever since Scott got on his fake health kick - he just drinks a smoothie and thinks he is healthy - he has been extra cruel,” the source says.

“The sad thing is that she actually listens to his criticism and goes into a place in her head where she thinks she needs to be a size zero to keep him.”

This dynamic has been going on for several years, too, and may come as no surprise to those who believe Disick is cheating on Kardashian.

In 2013, Disick actually said "this would be my ideal weight" when she was 105 lbs., though "I fell in love with you when you were super skinny.”

Kourt reportedly weighed 95 lbs. before giving birth to their first child. Kardashian told him that she’s “trying to [lose weight] the healthy way.”

Disick's response, half-joking but maybe not really?

“Just do it faster ... you’re my piece of machinery!”

Nina Dobrev has officially left The Vampire Diaries.

Creator Julie Plec and company came up with a unique way to write the character of Elena Gilbert off on The Vampire Diaries Season 6 Episode 22, as a cursed Elena is now tied to Bonnie forever.

Until Bonnie dies, Elena will remain unconscious.

Nina Dobrev, Paul and Ian

So, yes, this does leave open some door for Dobrev to return at some point. But that isn't the plan, according to Dobrev, Plec and everyone else connected to the series.

Elena is really (quasi) dead and gone, with fans mourning her demise last night and Dobrev herself active on Twitter.

The beautiful star jumped in to the #GoodbyeElena trend, posting a few throwback photos of her time on set and sending a heartfelt message to fans.

"I COULD NOT do it without all of you," she Tweeted last night.

"Thank you so much for all the love and positivity from you unbelievably passionate and amazing fans. Your support means more to me than I will ever be able to express with words."

Dobrev put to rest chatter this week that she left the series due to a clash or any awkwardness with ex-boyfriend Ian Somerhalder.

"I love him and the friendship is still strong and I think he's great and I care about him," Dobrev told E! Online, repeating simply that her six-year contract was up and she felt it was time to move on.

Might we see her somehow return on an eventual series finale? It's not completely out of the question.

But viewers need to prepare for The Vampire Diaries Season 7, having no expectations for any Elena Gilbert sightings at any time.

Kelly Rutherford Petition to Bring Kids Home Boasts 100,000 Signatures: Will it Matter?

Desperate to bring her kids home from Europe, where they live with her estranged husband, Kelly Rutherford is taking her plight to the people.

Kelly's We the People petition asking for the government to intervene in her epic six-year custody case reached the 100,000-signature mark.

That means the White House will review her request and issue a response ... the question is whether it will matter at all in achieving her goal.

Rutherford, Kelly

The former Gossip Girl cast member said of the petition:

"I feel so blessed to have so much support for me and my children. I am optimistic that the Obama administration will step in and rescue my children."

Listing off some of her famous supporters, she added:

"I want to mention Ed Westwick, Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Melanie Griffith, Selma Blair, Francis Fisher, Marianne Williamson and so many others."

Name-checking Kim Kardashian in a public plea to be taken seriously regarding a serious subject? Interesting strategy to say the least, Kelly.

Recently Rutherford lost her legal fight to return Hermes, 8, and Helena, 5, to the U.S. from France, where they live with her ex Daniel Giersch.

A California judge ruled that because his work visa had been revoked, the children would reside with him, and Rutherford must fly to go visit.

Rutherford, ironically, is believed to be responsible for keeping him out of the U.S. after she reported him for dealing drugs and weapons.

She adamantly denies this, and says that in their custody agreement, the judge told Giersch to reapply for his visa ... which he has not done.

So does Rutherford's petition have a shot? A State Department spokesperson anonymously said that U.S. intervention would be unlikely.

Rutherford's attorney, Wendy Murphy, says a California family court judge violated Kelly's constitutional rights and those of her children.

"How on earth can two utterly innocent and defenseless American children be shipped like luggage to live in a foreign country?" she said.

But a family lawyer not involved in the dispute argues that Rutherford would stand a much better chance in the international legal system.

Her petition may be a powerful public cry and earn a lot of attention, but this is not a kidnapping case and Giersch was granted custody.

In other words, it's an uphill battle at best for Kelly.


Lena Dunham Proudly Displays Copy of Kim Kardashian Selfie Book

Lena Dunham has no shame.

We don't say this because the actress often shows her boobs and her body on HBO's Girls.

We say it because she bought the Kim Kardashian selfie book! And she then showed off her purchase on social media!

Look What Lena Dunham Has!

"selfie with selfish #yeahiboughtit (I support experiments in female identity exploration/am a student of pop culture/will not be shamed)," Dunham wrote as a caption to the above image.

It's hard to believe she truly thinks a book of Kim Kardashian selfies is truly an "experiment in female identity exploration," but perhaps Dunham just wants to support a fellow controversial author.

Dunham herself came under some fire for "Not That Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You What She's Learned," but it was a very different kind than the backlash Kim has received.

Most people just think Kardashian is a vain, self-centered dolt who is asking people to pay money for photos they can just find online.

Dunham, meanwhile, was accused of sexual molesting her sister after sharing a story about the siblings in the pages of her memoir.

So, yeah. Like we said: slightly different controversies here.

Will you be purchasing the the Kim Kardashian selfies book? If so, we have one basic question for you: WHY??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Another day, another big name announced as part of Taylor Swift's new music video.

And this one has a special connection to the artist.

Not long after revealing to Twitter followers that Ellen Pompeo will play a role in her upcoming "Bad Blood" video, Swift unveiled a poster of Mariska Hargitay playing the character of Justice.

Mariska Hargitay "Bad Blood" Poster

Why is this notable?

Because Swift is such a huge fan of the Law & Order: SVU veteran that she named one of her cats after Hargitay's iconic detective, Olivia Benson.

The name of Swift's other feline? Meredith Grey, of course, after Pompeo's beloved surgeon on Grey's Anatomy.

Pompeo and Hargitay are friendly themselves, having posed for a picture at the Super Bowl and then sent it to Swift as a joke... that totally made Swift's life.

Taylor will debut her "Bad Blood" video at this Sunday's Billboard Music Awards.

As you can see here, the movie-like video will feature quite a number of big Hollywood names, from Lena Dunham to Jessia Alba to Gigi Hadid and others:

Kylie Jenner and Tyga: Kardashians Turning Up Heat, Trying to Torpedo Romance?

Kylie Jenner and rapper Tyga are doing little to hide their romance, and her famous family starting to worry about his outsized influence on her.

Her older sisters were reportedly supportive of her at first, says a source close to Kylie, 17, but now the Kardashians want them to break up.

Immediately, if not sooner, given the way things are going.

Increasingly worried about the influence of the rapper’s entourage, her family doesn't think she's "out of control," but "a few are concerned" about her.

Kylie has slammed recent gossip that she is some "wild child," but reports that Tyga was behind her Snapchat weed video don't help her cause.

"A lot of Tyga's friends are enablers," the friend of Kylie says. "That makes her family so nervous ... [they don't] want Kylie getting off track."

Her parents realize that at 17, "she is going to date who she wants, but they worry he will have a negative impact on her decision-making."

In the last year, Kylie's appearance has changed dramatically, and the star is often criticized for looking and acting much older than her age.

"She's become a perfectionist because she feels like she needs to be just as sexy as her other siblings, specifically Kendall and Khloe," the pal says.

"She doesn't feel inadequate, but she's willing to do whatever she can to herself to make her feel like she's looked at by the public in the same way."

Kylie is also "obsessed with the attention and knows that acting a little scandalous here and there will keep her in the spotlight," the friend says.

Tyga, 25, has been linked to Kylie since last fall, though the two have kept the romance "under wraps as much as possible for obvious reasons."

When it comes to his girl, his approach is basically f--k what the law says about Kylie Jenner ... and f--k what anyone else thinks about him too.

August 10 can't come quickly enough for this dude, or for Kylizzle, who is hell bent on moving out of Kris Jenner's house as soon as she's 18.

That's almost a minor detail at this point, though.

Legal adult or not, the question is whether Kris, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and Kendall can put enough pressure on her to nix this romance ASAP.

Clearly Kylie's growing up fast, which was inevitable given her celebrity status, but things seem to be slowly veering into dangerous territory ...

Selena Gomez: Exhausted by Bullying, Nearly Done with Album

She really can do it, people! Selena Gomez really can give an interview without once mentioning Justin Bieber.

The singer proved she's her own woman and her own artist yesterday by sitting for an extensive Google Hangout in order to promote her new collection for Adidas NEO.

And the topic of her famous ex-boyfriend (who supposedly believes Gomez is The One) was never addressed

"I've been endlessly working on my new album, that's almost kind of close to being done," the singer told fans of when they might hear new music.

Selena has been in the studio "constantly" and is clearly excited by what's on tap:

"Just know that it's the best that I've ever done and you guys won't be disappointed. I wish i could play it for you now but I can't."

Asked a number of silly questions, Gomez grew very serious when the issue of bullying arose, saying simply:

"People are so mean, it's exhausting."

Sadly, Gomez has first-hand experience. She recently shot down a body-shaming troll who told the singer to "stop eating junk food."

One fan in Berlin also asked Selena about the "meaning of life,” to which she joked about only being 22 years old… so she isn’t certain yet.

But she later explained:

"I think life is very, very, very hard and I've never had anything come super easy to me no matter what people may think, and I continue to be the best I can be and I just want to enjoy it.

"We only have one life and it is very precious, there's a lot that we can do and there's a lot that we should do.

"If you're good and you're kind to other people and you work hard and you're actually doing something with your life, I think that's so fulfilling."

Courtney Stodden Sex Tape: Released! Nearly Jacked By Hackers!

The Courtney Stodden sex tape almost came prematurely ... to the Internet. Hackers immediately tried to pilfer the self-pleasure-fest from Vivid.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, to some) their cyber attack failed harder than Doug Hutchison gets after he ... sorry. We'll show ourselves out.

If you've been living under a rock, or just don't scour the Internet for celebrity solo masturbation tapes, there is a Courtney Stodden sex tape.

It was released yesterday on Vivid (dot) com after the busty babe apparently acquiesced and agreed to release the "leaked" XXX footage.

Perhaps it was the $1 million offer she received (she says she's donating profits to charity) or the fact that it extends her 15 minutes of fame.

Maybe both. Either way, she still claims it was stolen but has backed off her initial, strongly-worded threats to block its release in Court.

Anyway, back to the lecture at hand. Yesterday, just as Stodden began streaming, screaming and stroking on Vivid, disaster nearly struck.

The company's IT department noticed someone was trying to steal the code to the tape, presumably to torrent the s--t for free elsewhere.

Wisely, at the direction of CEO Steve Hirsch, Vivid shut down its servers for more than an hour as they scrambled to thwart the invasion.

They got it done, scoring a major victory for the company and delivering a crushing blow to those looking to view free porn on the Internet.

Seriously, if only you could do that anywhere else online.
