Amber Portwood Goes OFF on Matt Baier: Give Me My Money!

Amazing news for Teen Mom fans, and fans of great big douchebags getting what they deserve ...

Amber Portwood has finally dumped Matt Baier! For real this time!

Amber Portwood with Matt Baier Pic

She's recently claimed that they'd broken up, but it seemed a little suspect -- the girl was super wishy-washy about the whole thing.

At one point, she said that she dumped him, but she'd be open to taking him back if he got therapy.

At another point, she called off their October wedding and their engagement, but at the time Matt was still living in her house.

So even though she's said a few times now that she's done with him, you can see why we've had a hard time believing her.

Until now, that is.

For the past several days, Amber and Matt have been filming for the new season of Marriage Boot Camp, and judging by her tweets, it hasn't been going that well.

Earlier this week, she wrote "Crazy couple weeks and I've taken a few steps back in the progress I've made however I'm learning so much about myself through others!"

Then yesterday she tweeted "I need to get out of this house!!! Drunk bimbo with too many opinions!! This isn't going to end well when I'm done!!! Fake."

We don't know who the "drunk bimbo" in question is, but it sounds like Amber's trashy side is coming out hard in the Marriage Boot Camp environment.

When someone asked if she was OK, she replied "I'm fine but I can't control my anger with ignorant people."

She added "BTW I'm a narcissist and an actor supposedly... Love it."

She's having such a bad time that she actually said "I wish Farrah was here lol.. I would be much happier!!"

Considering that the last time Amber was in the same room with Farrah she tried to punch her and verbally assaulted her ... that's saying a lot.

"I've literally let this house consume me and set my anger off more than I could ever imagine!" she admitted in another tweet.

"I know my limits and I'm at the end!!!"

"I'm doing a show that I should have never agreed to do," she added. "I've been taken out of my element to many times however I've learned a lot."

One of the things she learned, apparently, is that Matt is the worst.

Early this morning, she tweeted at Matt to "Take all my kids pics off your dumb social media and me and you while your at it ... thanks have fun at whoever's house your at."

She explained that it's "been 2 days" and Matt "is already posting videos on Instagram of him at someone's house with 50 bottles of liqueur everywhere.. it's on."

Portwood, Baier

Matt's deleted whatever video she's referring to, but it seems like she broke up with him, he left the Marriage Boot Camp house two days ago, and now he's partying somewhere.

When he tweeted about the long weekend for the Fourth of July, she replied "Long weekend of getting dumped," along with a winky face.

She also told him "I would lawyer up sweetheart... you owe me a little bit of change. I'll pray for you."

Amazing, right?

Even though she's said that they've broken up before, she's never been this vicious towards him, and we are absolutely loving it.

Here's hoping it's not just for publicity for the show, and that even though Amber likely won't get anywhere with any legal action, she tries anyway.

It's high time Matt got what was coming to him.


Donald Trump Just Sent His Most Ridiculous Tweet Yet

The president in no way, form or fashion has ever promoted or encouraged violence. If anything, quite the contrary.

So said Deputy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders earlier this week.

Fast forward a couple days... and Donald Trump has posted what may be his most ridiculous and controversial Tweet to date; which, we know, is saying A LOT.

In the video below, however, which the President of the United States shared on his social media account on Saturday morning, Trump has edited an appearance he made for the WWE back in 2007.

In the footage, he is beating up on the CNN logo, continuing his feud against the cable news network and directly contracting the Sanders quote above.

If this isn't an encouragement of violence against the press, we're not sure what is.

This is the fourth straight day Trump has used the most powerful platform on the planet to rail against the media, following a bizarre rant against Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski.

We could have said this many times in the past, but he's legitimately coming across as completely unhinged these says.

Twitter is more concerned than usual about the mental state of our Commander-in-Chief.

Here are just a few examples of what is being said about the President:

In a perfectly-worded response, CNN shot back as follow today:

It is a sad day when the President of the United States encourages violence against reporters. Clearly, Sarah Huckabee Sanders lied when she said the President had never done so.

Instead of preparing for his overseas trip, his first meeting with Vladimir Putin, dealing with North Korea and working on his health care bill, he is instead involved in juvenile behavior far below the dignity of his office.

We will keep doing our jobs. He should start doing his.

Watch the controversial Trump video below:

Kanye West: Taking His Feud with Jay Z to the Courtroom?!

Remember when Kanye West and Jay Z used to be friends?

Oh, how times have changed ...

Throne Watchers

Jay and Kanye go all the way back to the early 2000s, when Kanye worked as a producer for Roc-A-Fella Records.

They've collaborated multiples times, most notably on the 2011 album Watch the Throne and the subsequent tour.

Kanye has even been one of the key members in Jay Z's music streaming company, Tidal.

By all accounts, they've been extremely close for years -- but at some point within the last several months, all that has changed.

According to a rant Kanye went on during a concert last October, the issues started because he and Jay recorded verses for a Drake song, but Jay demanded the verses be excluded from the final cut "out of respect for Meek."

Because Meek Mill and Drake don't get along, and Jay Z didn't want to rock the boat.

Kanye called it "some Tidal/Apple bullsh-t," and he seemed very upset that Jay chose the politics of the music industry over artistry.

Kanye West is Concert

His rant got more personal though as he claimed that their children have never played together, and that Jay Z never called him after Kim's Paris robbery.

A month later, he still had some feelings on the subject.

"Jay Z, call me, bruh," he begged during another concert. "You still ain't called me. Jay Z, call me."

"Jay Z, I know you got killers, please don't send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man."

The day after that, Kanye was hospitalized for his mental breakdown, so we imagine there's a good chance Jay Z never got a hold of him.

Several months went by without any updates on the feud, but just a couple of days ago, Jay Z dropped his brand new album on Tidal.

Jay to the Z

And in one song, he made it clear that his issues with Kanye were far from resolved.

"I know people backstab you, I feel bad too," he rapped. "But this 'f-ck everybody' attitude ain't natural. But you ain't the same, this ain't KumbaYe, but you got hurt because you did cool by 'Ye."

"You have him 20 million without blinkin', he gave you 20 minutes on stage, f-ck was he thinkin'?"

"'F-ckin' wrong with everybody?', is that what you sayin'? But if everybody's crazy, you're the one that's insane."

And now Kanye has officially had it.

According to a new report from TMZ, Kanye has officially left Tidal over claims that the company owes him over $3 million.

He's not leaving the company over Jay's new song though -- sources say that Kanye's lawyers sent Tidal a letter about a month ago explaining his issues.

Jay Z and Kanye West Photo

The issues are that he was promised a bonus for bringing new subscribers to Tidal after exclusively releasing his last album through the service, but he never got the money.

He also claims that the company was supposed to reimburse him for music videos for the album, but they haven't done that, either.

His lawyers have told Tidal that due to these issues, his contract was terminated, but Tidal disagrees -- they say that they still have exclusivity for Kanye's new music.

They've said that if he goes against their original contract, they'll sue, which is cool with Kanye, because he'll sue them back.

Again, remember when these guys were friends?

It looks like those days are really and truly over.

Kailyn Lowry: Anxious and Afraid of Being a Mother of Three?!

In just a few weeks -- or less! -- Kailyn Lowry's life will change drastically.

And that's because sometime very, very soon, Kailyn will give birth to her third child.

Kailyn Lowry: Just a Mom Thing!

Things are a little different for her this time around -- with both of her previous pregnancies, the babies' fathers were involved.

Jo Rivera, the father of her first child, Isaac, may not have been the best back when their kid was born, but still, he was present.

His parents also helped out a lot with the new baby.

Then, when little Lincoln was born, Kailyn was married to Javi Marroquin and, at least then, things seemed pretty stable.

But the father of her third child is Chris Lopez, a guy she dated briefly but has since cut himself out of the picture.

And that's why, according to a source who spoke with Hollywood Life, Kailyn is getting pretty nervous about the months to come.

Kailyn Lowry "Bump Day" Photo

"Kailyn is all over the place right now," the source claims.

"She's battling the stress of dealing with all the preparations for the new baby, as well as looking after Isaac and Lincoln, all while attempting to ready herself mentally to go through this birth without a partner."

Yeah, that sounds like a lot to handle.

"As any mom knows," the source says wisely, "it's scary enough of an experience when you have your other half there with you, but this time Kailyn won't have that, and the reality of the situation is finally starting to sink in."

Normally this is about the time where we'd point out that perhaps it wasn't the best idea to plan a pregnancy with a guy while still married to another man, but this is too sad.

Chris Lopez and Kailyn Lowry

The insider goes on to explain that "As far as Kailyn is aware, Chris wants nothing to do with the baby and doesn't want any part in its life -- period."

"It's all so distressing for Kailyn, and her hormones are all over the place right now, which just makes it all the harder to deal with."

The source says that in her previous pregnancies, this was about the time when she'd start to get seriously into nesting -- preparing her home for the new baby.

It was "her favorite part of being pregnant," but "this time she's just full of anxiety and worry."

Kailyn Lowry and Kids On Instagram

And just in case this whole thing wasn't tragic enough, the source gives one more blow ...

"Even though it's still a long way in the future, Kailyn can't help but worry about what she will tell her child when they eventually ask about daddy and why he isn't around."

Maybe that's why, as we heard last weekend, she could be regretting giving up on her marriage to Javi.

Or maybe it's why she's been taking so many vacations lately -- to put a positive spin on this bittersweet experience.

Whatever Kailyn is feeling right now, and whatever her hopes or fears are for the future, we wish her all the best with her upcoming delivery.

Briana DeJesus Gives Birth to Baby #2!!!

Congratulations are in order for Briana DeJesus.

The Teen 3 alum, who is set to return to the MTV franchise this summer on Teen Mom 2, has welcomed her second child into the world.

Briana DeJesus Photograph

According to MTV News, which broke this exciting story, DeJesus is now the mother to a little girl named Stella.

She was born just prior to 2 p.m. today, weighing in at the time six pounds, 11 ounces and measuring 19.5 inches in length.

DeJesus confirmed the existence of daughter number-two via an adorable Instagram photo that featured these key figures, along with little Stella's first footprints.

See for yourself:

it's stella

"What a blessing," Briana wrote as a caption to the image.

An insider tells MTV that mommy and baby are both "healthy" and that Nova, the five-year old daughter to whom Briana gave birth during her stint on 16 & Pregnant, is "excited to be a big sister."

DeJesus shared her pregnancy with the world on January, keeping fans apprised of her pregnancy progress as the weeks and months flew by.

“Looks like Nova won’t be an only child anymore. Super excited for July,” DeJesus captioned photos on her Story back when she made this announcement.

At one point, she even posted a 3D sonogram of the impending child, penning as a caption to the awesome image:

“My lil Dominican bae is 6lbs, healthy & hairy (lol) few more weeks well actually she can come any day now."

On Briana's 23rd birthday last month, her friends and family members hosted a baby shower for Briana, who had already alerted her loved ones that the baby would be named Stella.

On the paternity side:

Nova’s father is DeJesus’ ex-boyfriend, some dude named Devoin Austin.

Her second daughter, meanwhile, is the result of relationship she had with a new boyfriend, a guy named Luis, and it was “the last thing that I expected to happen,” she told People Magazine this spring.

Will Luis play a role in his child's life?

It doesn't sound that way.

By the end of the latest preview for Teen Mom 2, Briana is seen breaking down in tears, explaining that “[Luis] been cheating on me this whole time, so I don’t know what I’m gonna do.”

YIKES.

DeJesus made headlines in 2016 when she underwent a self-described “mommy makeover,” receiving butt implants, breast implants and a labiaplasty.

She sounds pretty much perfect for the drama set to ensue on Teen Mom 2, doesn't she?

And she has company in the new mom/Teen Mom universe, as Chelsea Houska and Jenelle Evans both welcomed babies earlier this (a boy and a girl, respectively).

As fans of the franchise are also well aware, Kailyn Lowry is due to give birth to her third child nearly any day now... and 16 and Pregnant’s Ashley Salazar also welcomed her second child in January.

That's a lot of unprotected sex!

Teen Mom 2 returns on July 17 with new episodes, many of which will focus on Briana's pregnancy journey.

Are you happy for DeJesus? Or do you just feel sorry for little Stella?

Big Brother Recap: Why Did Megan Leave?

$

Ever since it was announced that Megan Lowder had made an early exit from Big Brother 19, fans have questioned what went down inside the house that paved the way for her departure. 

Thankfully, the latest episode of Big Brother did not leave many of the details out, and we are actually very sad to see her go so soon. 

Megan Lowder

So, let's get to it. 

We picked up right after the nominations ceremony, and there was a whole lot of angst around the house. Megan felt upset because of the way the house seemed to be coming after her. 

First, she had to go toe-to-toe with Josh because he was calling her a bad person. Second, she was put on the block by Cody on the back of that argument. 

Megan did not get the memo that bad luck comes in threes. Everyone was out in the back yard, enjoying the sun and having a good old time, but Jessica made a comment comparing Alex to Pao Pao from Big Brother 16. 

Alex OW

Megan did not hear the full thing and assumed Jessica was calling her friend a "panda." Looking for a way to shift the target from her own back, Megan told Alex about it. 

She then brought up the fact that it could be racism because Alex is Asian. Although Alex did not want to have any conflict, she was pissed.

Paul was in earshot of this whole conversation and told Jessica about it. Jessica was furious and made her way to speak to Alex. She was quick to point out that those words did not escape her mouth. 

Here's the thing: Jessica said she referred to her as "Alex" and that's a complete lie. She compared her to Pao Pao, and I don't get why she did not say that. 

Jessica Graf

Instead, Jessica told Alex that Megan was trying desperately to find a new target so that she could stay in the game a little longer. 

Alex reacted in anger and called Megan out in front of the house. For what it's worth, Megan acted like she had no idea what the heck was going on. 

There is every reason to believe she could have genuinely believed what she thought she heard. Alex and Jillian essentially cut Megan out of the alliance, and that was that. 

When it came to picking the have nots for the week, Cody asked if anyone wanted to volunteer. Ramses, Megan, Jillian, Josh, and Paul volunteered to go on the block. 

Paul Abrahamian

The room the have-nots were gifted to sleep in had spikes on the bed. In short, there was no way to get a good sleep on the bed. Big Brother offered up a temptation twist, which Paul agreed to try. 

He won his way out of being a have not. He's one lucky guy. 

Megan then self-evicted from the game and every other houseguest was shocked to learn the news, but that did not mean they were done trashing her. 

Paul was voted into the Den of Temptation and won a three-week safety from eviction chain, and the rest of the house thought Josh had won it. 

Cody Nickson

Knowing he had to put someone else up on the block, Cody tried to get a read on Alex, but she told him she would be targeting his alliance if she came into power. 

As expected, he nominated Alex in Megan's place. 

The good thing about all of it was that Cody gave Alex a chance to save herself with the veto. At least if she leaves, she's not leaving through the back door. 

What do you think about all of the twists?

The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 12 Recap: Home Is Where The Truth Is

Why did Karen make her way out of Potomac?

That was a huge question on The Real Housewives of Potomac Season 2 Episode 12, as the ladies questioned whether there was an ulterior motive for her exit. 

The Real Housewives of Potomac Cast Photo

When the episode got underway, the ladies wondered what Karen's motives were for the random move, but all she could muster in reply was:

"I just want to do me." Yes, just you keep telling yourself that. 

While the other ladies probed for answers, Karen asked her friends just to be happy for her and move on from asking at every opportunity.

She then dropped the bomb that she was planning a party in her new home but stressed she did not think she would be inviting her fellow cast members because, well, they're not entirely supportive of her. 

Ashley Darby Picture

Ashley then proved she was rather despicable by trying to be nice to get on the guest list. Her reason for asking about the move was that she knew the least about it. 

Um, alright then. 

Meanwhile, Juan was gearing up for a new job, and his wife did not seem to think he was up to the challenge. It was a coaching position on the women's side. 

If you watch The Real Housewives of Potomac online, you will know that the pair has been on the rocks for quite some time and are probably going to be finished soon.

Robyn Dixon Picture

Robyn already knew this, and that's why she made it her mission to let Juan know she received a lot of attention from the men of Bermuda.  

She then opened up about visiting the therapist and the news that she was to go on a date with another man. Juan's reaction was less than pleasant when he heard she was taking advice from her friends. 

Robyn then revealed that she does not want to be with anyone else and would be happy with Juan if he managed to give her some more time. 

They ultimately decided it would be a good idea to stay together for six months and if things had improved, they would stay together. If not, well, you get the picture. 

Karen Huger Picture

Elsewhere, Monique and her husband officially became Potomac homeowners, and Ashley, Karen, and Charrisse stopped by to check on the home. 

Karen subsequently invited all of the women to her high-class party, proving she was talking crap earlier in the episode. The ladies wondered why Karen moved away, but her new home was huge. 

All seemed right at the end of the episode, with the only shocker being the state of Ashley and Michael's relationship. 

What do you think of all the drama?

Maria Menounos is on the road to recovery after having surgery to remove a golf-ball-size meningioma brain tumor.

The 39-year-old underwent the surgery while her mother, Litsa Menounos, battled stage 4 brain cancer. 

The E! News coanchor confirmed the news to People Magazine. 

Maria Menounos at the SAG Awards

"This February I thought I had an ear infection, so I went to a doctor, and he said, 'Your ears are the cleanest things I've ever seen. What else are you feeling?' I'd been getting light-headed on-set and having headaches."

"My speech had gotten slurred, and I was having difficulty reading the teleprompter. I said, 'I know you're going to think I'm crazy, but I think I have a brain tumor like my mom,’” Maria continued. 

“He said, 'I don't think you're crazy. Let's just get an MRI.' The next week I started feeling better, so I was like, 'I'm clearly paranoid.' So I kept pushing the MRI."

Maria Menounos Red Nose Photo

Fast forward three months and the tumor has been removed. The tumor was revealed not to be cancerous, and her prognosis is hopeful. 

Maria has decided to give up her role within E! News to recover and allow herself to think about the next chapter of her life. 

"I am so grateful for the past three years at E!, I had such an amazing time co-hosting with Jason Kennedy and working everyday with the wonderful roster of talent on the show including producers, staff, and crew,” Maria said in a statement.

“It was such a special, good-hearted group and one I'll always consider family. A special thank you to Frances Berwick and Adam Stotsky for all the support they have shown me through the years especially during these tough times. I will truly miss everyone and looking forward to this next chapter in my life."

In addition to speaking to People, Maria opened up about her experience on The Today Show.

“For me, I saw it as a huge blessing and a huge gift because I needed to change my life,” she said, trying to hold back the tears.

“We’re caretakers as women, and we help everybody, and we put ourselves last always. And I don’t think — at least for me — I guess I realized I didn’t value myself in a lot of ways. And so I think that that was a really important lesson.”

Maria Menounos Poses

Maria also opened up about her intentions to start a family in the wake of the ordeal. 

“I want to start a family,” she added on Today. “You realize really quickly when something like this happens that nothing else really matters.”

We at The Hollywood Gossip wish Maria a speedy recovery.

Amber Rose: Settling Down ... With Whom?!?

To say Amber Rose is one of the most provocative celebrities around would be the understatement of the century. 

When she's not starting movements on Instagram to get women to show off their platinum vagines (thanks for that one, Corrine!), she's starting feuds on Twitter with celebrities. 

Amber Rose and Large Shades

With that in mind, it comes as a huge surprise we're now hearing the former stripper is ready to settle down with the new man in her life

That new man is 21 Savage, and Amber has apparently been seeing every single day since first meeting "several weeks ago." 

Rose has even introduced 21 Savage to her family and four-year-old son Sebastian. Word on the street is that 21 Savage "bonded" with Sebastian. 

Also, Amber has met up with her new boyfriend's mother and cousins. 

21 Savage Poses

So, Amber must be at least serious about finding love, and we're actually very happy for her ... if only for the potential for it all to go up in flames and give us some great material to work with down the line. 

Take note, Amber. 

Kidding aside, we don't even know if she was actively seeking love, but sometimes that's when love is found, so maybe Amber is holding on to it. 

Somehow, people tend to comment on age gaps in the celebrity world. With an 11-year age gap between them, Amber is not worrying one bit about it. 

Amber Rose and Cleavage

In fact, she seems to think age is irrelevant and a double standard. When you think about, she does have a point. It's not like Amber to think things through. 

If she did, she would not put half of the crap on Instagram she does these days. 

We are very surprised by these developments and wish Amber well in her journey with her new squeeze. It should be interesting to see whether they make it all the way to marriage.

Could you imagine Amber Rose married? Would she dial back her crazy antics?

Stevie Ryan Dies; Actress & Jenelle Evans Foe Was 33

Stevie Ryan, an actress and comedian best known in gossip circles for her lengthy feud with Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans, has passed away.

Ryan was just 33 years old.

Details are still scarce, but police investigating the tragedy are describing Ryan's death as an apparent suicide by hanging.

The shocking news comes just one week after Stevie publicly shared her grief over the death of her grandfather.

“I’m just worried that this is going to send me into a deeper depression,” Ryan stated on a recent episode of her podcast.

After moving to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career at the age of 19, Ryan unexpectedly found success through her YouTube channel.

Specifically, through her signature character, Little Loca.

Ryan eventually carved out a niche when she started poking fun at celebrities, going viral with a number of spot-on impressions.

Stevie Ryan Photo

Ryan told The Hollywood Reporter in 2012:

“I remember waking up and one Little Loca video had like 900 hits and I was like ‘Oh, my gosh. There’s people watching this?’” 

“And it just kept going and then I did this Paris Hilton thing and then it literally was just growing and growing."

"And I just became so obsessed with all of it.”

Ryan landed a VH1 sketch series entitled Stevie TV in 2012 but despite critical acclaim, the show lasted only one season.

She went on to host Brody Jenner's short-lived E! series, Sex With Brody. That series also lasted only one season (2015).

Stevie Ryan Pic

But it was her riffs on the Teen Mom phenomenon and its cast members that gained Ryan the most attention on social media.

Ryan mocked Farrah Abraham, Jenelle Evans, and others in a fashion that made her popular with many fans of the franchise.

On the flip side, it made her roundly despised by some of the show's stars, who failed to see the humor in what she was doing.

At one point, Ryan publicly shared a series of flirtatious texts that she had received from Evans' then-boyfriend Nathan Griffith.

Today, the 25-year-old Evans spoke out on social media after receiving word of Ryan's death, acknowledging their feud.

“I know we pretty much hated each other but I’m sorry you had to go so soon pretty girl,” Jenelle tweeted.

Other Teen Mom stars have yet to publicly address Ryan's death, but we suspect we'll be hearing from more of them in due time.

As is to be expected amid such tragedy, thousands of tributes from fans of the gifted comic have already poured in on Twitter.

Many of the online reactions involve encouraging anyone who may be suffering from thoughts of suicide to seek immediate help. 

We strongly urge those who are struggling to take such steps sooner rather than later, and our thoughts go out to Ryan's family.

Jessa Duggar on Raising Two Kids: It's SO Chaotic!

If you watch Counting On online, you know that the Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald are taking her parents' approach to family planning and seem to be in a race to hit double-digit offspring before they turn 30.

Back in February, Jessa welcomed her second child, a boy named Henry Wilberforce.

Henry's arrival came just 15 months after the birth of Jessa's first son, Spurgeon.

Jessa Duggar & Family on Easter Morning

So these days, Jessa and husband Ben Seewald are raising two kids under the age of two - an undertaking that no doubt puts their patience to the test on a daily basis.

Jessa isn't one to complain (We're pretty sure Duggar women are trained from a young age to keep perma-grins affixed to their faces at all times.), but in a preview for Monday's episode of Counting On, the 24-year-old confesses that her situation can be trying at times.

“I kind of expected it to be a challenge going from one to two kids — I feel like every day is different," Jessa says in the clip.

"Some days it’s very, very simple. Other days, it’s a little more chaotic."

We imagine "a little more chaotic" is Jessa's euphemistic way of saying there are days when she looks at the pile of dirty diapers and wants to rip her hair out by the roots.

Jessa, Ben and Family

Things are a bit less hectic on Ben Seewald's end, as the Duggars' have basically added an 11th commandment to their Bible that forbids men from lifting a finger around the house.

But being unemployed and under no obligation to assist in the raising of his children didn't stop Ben from offering his own two cents on life in the Seewald household:

“Since Henry’s birth, things have been a little more busy in the Seewald house,” Ben tells producers in the preview.

“One adjustment going from one child to two is there are so many diapers and they pile up so fast. We gotta take the trash out a lot more often.”

Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald Family Photo

We're guessing Jessa cracked and let out a terrifying Heath Ledger Joker laugh when she heard Ben complain about taking the trash out more often.

If she didn't, she deserves some sort of prize.

Ben should probably go ahead and get a job before Jessa disappears with the kids and goes full Gone Girl on his ass.

When the episode got underway, Kirk was at odds with Shirleen as the trip to Jamaica reached a conclusion. Al Shirleen wanted was for Kirk to admit all of the bad things he did to Rasheeda. 

Hey, it's not too much to ask after all of the crap she has been put through this season alone. Kirk decided it was best to go on the offensive and blamed Shirleen for trying to break up the family. 

Um, is Kirk deluded? Why would he even think to trash Shirleen at a moment like this? This should make Rasheeda's decision about him a little easier. 

Shirleen seemed to think that the best course of action was to leave the situation, because, well, she did not want to be called a homewrecker. 

Rasheeda caught up with her mother back in Atlanta, and things were not great.

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen him that mad and I don’t know why he’s mad at me. The most important thing is the DNA. Everybody else asks him that question,” Shirleen explains, apparently still irate about the whole thing. 

Rasheeda went on to chat about Kirk giving her a breakdown of his money and properties in the event they were going ahead with a separation. 

Rasheeda then noticed a letter from Jasmine, apologizing for everything that's happened since she appeared on the scene. 

“You destroyed my life. I don’t f**k with you,” Rasheeda revealed in her confessional while saying the DNA test results were enclosed. 

Logan is NOT the father, meaning Kirk is a fair bet to be the man we all thought he was. 

Elsewhere, Tammy Rivera organized a meeting between Tommie and her mother, Samantha. Yes, this was always going to be a drama-filled moment for the series.

Tommie has so much anger towards Samantha for not being around for much of her young life, so it made sense that they would at least try to right the ship. 

Deb appeared and went toe-to-toe with Samantha for not listening to Tommie. Instead, she only seemed concerned with saying she was away for a reason. 

In the end, Samantha and Tommie managed to fix their relationship, but something tells us they are not going to be friendly this soon. 

Finally, Stevie J met up with Joseline to attempt to work things out. He was still annoyed about the way Joseline treated his daughters and felt like she needed to apologize. 

Joseline Calls Wedding Off

Joseline did not let him get a word in, saying he should go to New York to appear on Wendy Williams and to fire his new artist, Estelita Quintero.

No, we're not kidding. Petty? Yes. Typical Joseline? Of course. 

When Stevie decided to not agree to Joseline's terms, she threatened that she would move to Miami, but Stevie stood his ground and told her to stop using Bonnie Bella as a piece of the puzzle. 

Later, Stevie revealed he would continue to support Estelita Quintero, and his daughters were ecstatic. 

However, Joseline revealed she may not appear on the show ever again after some drama with production.

Big Brother Spoilers: Is Another Houseguest Quitting?

$

We think it's fair to say Big Brother 19 has had the most shocking first week on the live feeds than any full season of the CBS ratings juggernaut. 

We've had one houseguest quitting after a surprising bust-up with one of her fellow allies, and some shocking twists thanks to the Den of Temptation. 

Alex OW

But what happened over the long weekend that's got everyone talking? Okay. Let's get to it.

As we previously reported, Cody tried his hardest to try and find common ground with Alex. In short, he felt like she was a strong player and deserved to be there. 

However, Alex told him to his face that she would be targeting him and the rest of the couples if she got into power. That meant Cody had no choice and had to nominate her. 

Unsurprisingly, Alex emerged victoriously in the veto competition, securing her safety for the week. The other side of the house immediately questioned what they should do because Cody was going to have to name his fifth nominee. 

Cody Nickson

Initially, Cody thought it would be a good idea to backdoor Jason and send the cowboy out of the game early on. However, his alliance members were against this idea. 

This presented Cody with a dilemma. He was friendly with Paul and Christmas but felt like they were going to take him out as soon as they got the opportunity. 

At the veto meeting, Cody nominated Paul as the replacement nominee. However, Paul had the Pendant of Protection and practically shoved it in Cody's face. 

So, Cody then put Christmas on the block. As expected, it caused a lot of drama on the feeds and Christmas felt betrayed because she thought she had a good thing going with Cody's side of the house. 

While Christmas fumed, Cody told Paul that he was the target because he did not give him one of the friendship bracelets. Paul respected the decision but was still unimpressed that Cody used underhand tactics to get revenge. 

Christmas Abbott

The plot thickened Monday morning when Christmas decided to jump on Jason's back and fell flat on her face. In the process, she damaged her foot. 

Presumably knowing she would likely be leaving, she asked producers to have a return next season. Christmas then left the house, and everyone thought she was gone. 

Cody then had to think about naming a replacement nominee... again. He did not know what to do because he's put so many people on the block in the first week. 

Surprisingly, Christmas reappeared with crutches. Her foot was not broken, but she had damaged ligaments and was told she would get an MRI scan at some point this week. 

Jillian Parker

With Christmas on the block next to Jillian, will the house choose to keep her safe or send her out before her foot heals? It's difficult because Christmas is seen as a competition beast. 

Something tells us she may be getting an early exit from the Big Brother house.

Tiger Woods Completes Intensive Treatment Program: What Did He Say?

Tiger Woods was arrested on DUI charges last month after police in Jupiter, Florida noticed the famous golfer was driving in bizarre fashion. 

In the aftermath, it was revealed that Woods was not drunk. Instead, he was under the influence of a cocktail of prescription drugs. 

Tiger Woods on Golf Course

The issue at hand was put down to back surgery the 41-year-old had, and he allegedly took a bad reaction to the painkillers prescribed to him by doctors at the time. 

Tiger recognized that he did need some help in a statement shortly after the incident. 

"I'm currently receiving professional help to manage my medications and the ways that I deal with back pain and a sleep disorder," Woods said at the time.

"I want to thank everyone for the amazing outpouring of support and understanding especially the fans and players on tour."

While this proved Tiger showed he was remorseful for what went down, not everyone felt like he was taking the treatment seriously. 

Tiger Woods Arrested

He was spotted out and about with his kids, presumably meaning he was not in an in-patient facility. Some felt that he was using the treatment as a tactic to get a lighter sentence. 

On top of that, the treatment has now been completed, with Tiger taking to Twitter to let his followers know this was not something he was just going to brush under the rug. 

“I recently completed an out of state private intensive program,” he said in the statement.

“I will continue to tackle this going forward with my doctors, family, and friends. I am so very thankful for all the support I’ve received.”

Tiger Woods Swings

With the treatment over, Woods is scheduled to appear in court on July 8. We're unsure what the court date will hold for the gold legend, but we'll have more clarity in the coming days.

Teen Mom OG Reunion Recap: A Fiery Showdown

In the aftermath of a chilling, confusing and dramatic season finale, last night marked the first portion of MTV's Teen Mom: OG reunion.

You know the routine: 

Once season concludes, the fab four sit down with Dr. Drew, and often their significant others, to rehash the events of recent months.

Maci Bookout on MTV

Occasionally, there is an all-out melee. More commonly, the barbs exchanged are merely verbal, though that can be explosive enough.

When the episode got underway, Dr. Drew called Maci to the stage to discuss Ryan Edwards appearing to drive while under the influence. 

Maci was quick to point out that Bentley felt "concerned" and "confused" about Ryan's addiction and what it could mean for the future. 

Dr. Drew was genuinely shocked by the footage of Ryan falling asleep while driving. 

“When I see someone nodding off in the car like that, I think opiates," he said to Maci. As if it was not bad enough that the producers showed Ryan in this state, Dr. Drew leaped to their defense. 

Maci Bookout Cries

The producers would not have let Ryan in the car. ... They found out only after the fact, just like the rest of us.”

Something tells us they could have shut it down quicker. It was downright bizarre, but it did prove Maci's suspicions. 

Mackenzie was then brought on stage to have it out with Maci for everything she had been saying about Ryan's addiction and treatment. 

Mackenzie pointed out that things were looking good for Ryan's recovery, and subsequently read out a letter she had written to Maci. 

“You had known about his problems since November. ... He could have died, and still, you said nothing.” She then accused Maci of “exploiting Ryan and his addiction on the show.”

The producers love drama, and if Maci is helping bring it, it will make sense that she would exploit Ryan's addiction to keep her storyline fresh.

Dr. Drew then asked the two women to make things right because, well, it's not a food situation for either party to be in. Whether they will be able to do so, we don't know. 

When Maci's turn was up, Amber took to the stage to open up about her Matt Baier woes. When the episode was filmed, they were still living in the same house, but their relationship was in doubt. 

Dr. Drew then called up Matt to find out about the financial entanglements for them. If you watch Teen Mom OG online, you will recall that Amber accused her man of stealing money from her. 

Amber Portwood Reacts

While Matt denied all the allegations, Amber responded, "

“Where’s $60,000 dollars? Where’s $30,000? … Where’s 90 grand?"

Matt decided to make things worse, saying:

“It’s sitting in my backpack.”

Things seemed like they were ending on a happier note, with Amber saying "That’s the man I fell in love with.”

Baier and Portwood

But then Matt said they had a rough few months, and Amber went ham.

"We've had a rough couple of [expletive] years. I have! And I've stood by your side! ... You've gotta change."

Continuing the Duggar family baby boom, Counting On Season 3 Episode 4 featured the reveal of the gender of Jill Dillard's second baby.

Meanwhile, Jessa and Ben adjusted to being a family of four, Jinger tried to acclimate herself to Texas and Joy had dinner with Austin's family.

Jill Duggar: Hiking While Pregnant?!

We already knew the gender of the baby, but it was still good getting to watch the couple reveal the news to their respective families. 

In true Jill and Derick fashion, they opted to reveal the news in a fun and exciting way. Before the gender reveal, Jill predicted she was having a girl, while Derick went with a boy. 

Most of the family took Jill's side, thinking that because they already had a beautiful son, they would get a daughter this time around. 

As we already knew, Derick was right, and they were adding another boy to their brood. Both moms visited Jill and Derick to the ultrasound, and it turned into a special affair.

Revealing the news to the rest of the family was like a huge scavenger hunt. Instead of calling them straight away, they hid a box of boy's clothing and left some clues. 

In the end, Jordan found the package, earning his team a win. Yes, they split the family members into two teams. Hey, they have to do something to fill the episode up. 

Otherwise, we'd have cute confessionals of the expectant couple pondering what their little bundle of joy would be like and how they would cope being a two-child family. 

In case you've been living under a rock, the couple recently revealed the name of their son in a cute Instagram post. Yes, we say they are cute all the time because, well, they are. 

They're adorable. 

Jill Duggar at Joy-Anna's Wedding

"We are so excited to announce the name of Baby Dillard #2! Samuel Scott Dillard. We can’t wait to welcome him to the world and have him join our family very soon!”

Elsewhere, Jinger and Jeremy were brushing up on their Spanish in hilarious fashion. It reminded us of school for some reason. 

You could tell the couple was enjoying their time together, brushing up on all of the Spanish terms. 

“I think that Jeremy keeps everything super exciting,” Jinger, 23, says.

“Learning Spanish is just another thing that’s super enjoyable to do with him.”

Jinger Loves Being Married

After Jinger had got the word for baby wrong, she revealed via an interview that it would be an important word for them going forward. 

“El bebe, that is a word that is important for us to learn because Jeremy and I always call each other babe,” she says. “We haven’t switched over to the Spanish word for baby.”

Jeremy then said they should go to a restaurant and test out their new skills. 

“We might end up ordering a little boy or something,” she jokes. “They’ll bring out a child to entertain us.”

Um, alright then.

The exact cause of death is unknown at this time, but Blackwell was diagnosed with a brain tumor last year after falling ill and undergoing a number of tests in Japan.

The popular drummer's wife, Yaritza, who updates her husband’s social media accounts, shared the news Tuesday on Instagram via an image of her grasping his hand.

She wrote that he died “peacefully” in her company and added:

“Thanks God for his life and thanks everyone for their support.”

Last July, his wife set up a GoFundMe account to cover Blackwell’s medical expenses; it has raised over $78,000 to date.

According to USA Today, the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner's Office in Tampa has been asked for further information on Blackwell’s passing, but has not yet responded to this request

Blackwell took to stages around the world alongside Prince for 15 years.

He was well known and beloved for his unique style of drumming, having graduated from Berklee College of Music before being recruited by Prince in 2000 to play in his band New Power Generation.

Blackwell also performed with Patti LaBelle, Justin Timberlake and Cameo, among other big-time artists and singers.

He tragically lost an arm over the last year, as he underwent various surgeries in an attempt overcome his diagnosis.

In the fall of 2016, Blackwell told Tampa TV station WTSP-TV that Prince was like a father figure to him. The two friends were extremely close.

He said another close acquintence had recently told him that he could just imagine Prince calling for him to play as part of his band up in heaven.

"I can hear Prince now say, 'I'll just call John.' No, you ain't! I don't want to do that gig. Not yet," Blackwell, who took up drumming at the age of three, said at the time.

In response to his passing, many others within the world of music expressed their sadness and sent their condolences on social media.

To wit, Sheila E. wrote:

"My beautiful friend John Blackwell passed away 2day Plz keep his family in prayer. He was amazing manLuv u my brother," along with the following picture:

"Rest In Peace #JohnBlackwell Your legend will live 4ever. One of the best to ever pick up drumsticks. Prayers to family and friends."

And Morris Day:

"We lost another brother... John Blackwell made his transition today!!! Our prayers go out to his wife and family!"

We share these sentiments and we send our best wishes to Blackwell's family.

May he rest in peace.

Kylie Jenner to Tyga: Goodbye... FOREVER!

$

Kylie Jenner has erased Tyga from her life.

In a figurative sense. In a romantic sense. And now, in a literal sense.

A few months ago, during her hot heyday with the rapper, Kylie got a lower case "t" tattooed on her right ankle.

Kylie Jenner is Thirsty

She didn't say very much about the etching at the time, but the meaning was undeniable:

The reality star and the rapper were involved in a very serious relationship and Kylie wanted to make it clear that she was Tyga's girl forever and ever.

It was a somewhat sweet and seemingly permanent gesture.

But life has come at Kylie pretty fast.

Several weeks after her split from the unsuccessful artist, Jenner has transformed this "t" tattoo into a script "la" tattoo.

We assume the edited mark is a shout-out to the city of Los Angeles and not the state of Louisiana - but mostly we assume it was one of the few easy options Jenner had for turning her little "t" into something legible.

Kylie and Tyga Look Weird

Kylie and Tyga broke up in April.

Not everyone believed the split would last, however.

“They tend to take little breaks all the time and then get back together,” one insider said to People Magazine. “It’s definitely possible they’ll work things out again.”

We guess it remains possible.

Yet it seems awfully unlikely, as evidenced by Jenner's latest gesture.

In early June, Tyga released what sounded like a Kylie Jenner diss track, rapping that his ex-girlfriend had "it bad" for him and implying that Jenner was annoying obsessed with their relationship.

He's also hinted rather strongly that he's better off without Kylie, likely adding fuel to her let's-delete-this-stupid-tattoo-and-be-free-of-all-Tyga-reminders-in-my-life fire.

Kyga on Vacation

The couple had been together for about three (occasionally contentious) years at the time of their break-up.

We haven't heard any rumblings of Tyga dating anyone new since ending things with Jenner, but Kylie has publicly moved on with another random musician: Travis Scott.

However, there's been chatter that Scott has cheated on Kylie MANY times, leaving her heartbroken and very upset.

Upset enough to go crawling back to Tyga?

We don't think so, not at this point, not after the changing of her tattoo.

That's as big of an EFF YOU as one can really deliver to an ex-lover... although getting the tattoo in the first place would seem to be as strong of an I LOVE YOU as one can utter to this same ex-lover.

So you never really know, we guess.

Would anyone truly be shocked if these two got back together?
