Amber Portwood and Brandi Glanville: Feuding on Marriage Boot Camp?!

Amber Portwood hasn't been in the greatest place lately.

If you've seen a recent episode of Teen Mom OG or checked out her increasingly concerning Twitter account, then you know what we're talking about.

Amber Portwood Cries

It seems like she's been having a heck of a time dumping Matt Baier, who apparently has a hundred and one tricks to weasel his way back into her life.

We've seen him insult her brother and tell cameras that he'd never marry her after she refused to a quickie Las Vegas wedding.

We know that he put himself in charge of her bank account, and that he'd been insisting on holding her driver's license for her because he was insecure that she'd leave him.

On Monday night's reunion special, she accused him of stealing over $100,000 from her.

But still, Matt always has an excuse, and those excuses made Amber agree to give their relationship one last shot by filming for a new season of Marriage Boot Camp with him.

It did not go well for many reasons.

Matt Baier with Amber

For one, when filming came to a close, she decided to dump Matt for good.

"Take all my kids pics off your dumb social media and me and you while your at it ..." she instructed him in a tweet. "Thanks have fun at whoever's house your at."

Because, as she explained, it had been only two days since she broke up with him and he was "already posting videos of Instagram of him at someone's house with 50 bottles of liqueur everywhere."

"It's on," she added.

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

If Amber is praying for Matt, then we'll pray for Amber -- even if he did take thousands and thousands of dollars from her, his name was on her bank account, so it doesn't sound like she'll be able to get anything back.

Portwood, Baier

But while all this drama with Matt was going on, Amber was also getting into it with someone else on the Marriage Boot Camp set.

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

"I've literally let this house consume me and set my anger off more than I could ever imagine," she added. "I know my limits and I'm at the end!!!"

When someone told her to kick out whoever was causing so many issues with her, she replied "I can't kick this blonde jackass out lol ... I can only completely remove myself before I do something I will regret."

OK, so we don't know who this person is, but we know that she's blonde and that Amber described her as a "drunk bimbo with too many opinions."

Keep that in mind as we reveal this unrelated piece of news ...

Brandi Glanville will also be on the new season of Marriage Boot Camp!

She'll be bringing along her father, Guy Glanville, so they can work on some issues -- remember, Marriage Boot Camp is really playing fast and loose with their own title these days.

Brandi does enjoy drinking, she is very blonde, and she's definitely always been outspoken about her opinions.

Even though Amber appeared on her podcast back when the issues with Matt were really hitting the fan, and even though they seemed to get along, we can see them clashing.

Especially in such an emotionally charged environment.

Also, when Amber made her tweets about the mysterious blonde jackass, someone replied, suggesting she was talking about Brandi.

Amber liked that tweet.

She also deleted a photo of herself and Brandi, taken when she appeared on her podcast.

Did anyone else just get really, really excited for the new season?


Reporter Gets Puked On (A LOT!) During Live Broadcast

It's not easy being a reporter.

Because Donald Trump is basically encouraging the world to beat you to a bloody pulp? Yes.

But also because you must maintain a brave face even when doing your job in front of a couple having sex.

Or, in the case of KTLA's Wendy Burch, even when a drunk person vomits all over you.

Burch was featured in a live segment this past Tuesday, speaking to a man who just took part in the annual Hermosa Beach Iron Man, a Fourth of July tradition in the area.

"Let's just recap," Burch said to the bald individual, as both stood among a boisterous crowd gathered for the fun occasion.

"So you guys ran a mile on the beach, you paddled a mile on the ocean, and now what are you doing?"

"Chuggin' a six-pack of beer," the man said.

Fair enough, right? It was America's birthday, after all.

As Burch continued to conduct her interview, she and her subject two heard a commotion to their right... which is there they (and the camera) found a bikini-clad woman bent over and throwing up while a rowdy crowd egged her on.

"It's getting ugly, it's getting ugly," Burch told viewers.

But she had no idea.

Mere seconds later, she and the Iron Man competitor by her side got splattered with an unidentified substance that came shooting from someone off camera.

It's very safe to assume this was vomit.

The camera then cut back to the news anchors at their desk, neither of whom could conceal their laughter over what they just witnessed.

"While the anchors tried to regain their composure and go onto the next story. I assumed I was still live,” Burch emailed The Huffington Post after this footage went viral, explaining:

"So, for the better part of the next two minutes, I just kept interviewing drunken people while sudsy substances flew in in the air and landed in my hair.

"Let’s say, after that, it was a wrap. I drove home, took a hot shower and a long nap."

Amazing. Someone get this woman a Pulitzer.

Kristen Doute: Topless on Instagram, Eternally Thirsty

Vanderpump Rules is unique amongst reality shows, in that its producers crank out a truly remarkable number of episodes per season.

In an age when most series, scripted or otherwise, are paring down, Vanderpump just keeps getting bigger, churning out a staggering 24 episodes in each of its last two seasons.

With that sort of exposure, it's tough to imagine the cast is ever wanting for attention, and yet, it seems even when she's in a pool, Kristen Doute remains parched:

Kristen Doute Topless Image

What you're looking at is a "topless photo of Kristen Doute."

It's not easy to pull off a topless pic that doesn't violate Instagram's no-nipple policy, but Kristen pulls it off by baring nothing more than a little shoulder.

The important thing is that it's enough to accomplish the desired effect, which is to get the Internet talking about a Kristen Doute topless pic.

Hey, you don't survive and thrive in the increasingly crowded reality TV market for five seasons without knowing how to manipulate social media.

The Vanderpump cast is currently shooting its sixth season, and K-Dot has to what she can to stand out amidst a number of promising storylines.

Just in the past three weeks, the following rumors have emerged out of West Hollywood:

Sources say Scheana Marie is engaged to Robert Parks-Valletta after just a few months of dating.

Other insiders close to the cast say that Tom Schwartz and Katie Maloney are headed for divorce.

(The couple denies it, but that could just be part of an effort to preserve the drama.)

There are conflicting reports about new additions to the cast, but we know that Stassi Schroeder is back together with Patrick Meagher, who will appear on camera for the first time this season.

He may or may not be joined by a pair of new SURvers, including James Kennedy's unfortunate girlfriend.

Brittany Cartwright, Jax Taykir Photo

And all of this will take place on camera directly on the heels of the premiere season of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright's spinoff series.

So you can't really blame Kristen for grabbing her share of the Internet's attention with a bit of false advertising.

If there's one thing that's guaranteed to be good for some clicks, it's the promise of nudity.

Watch Vanderpump Rules online to get caught up in time for what's sure to be another lengthy, drama-packed season.

Patton Oswalt: Engaged to Meredith Salenger!

Just a few weeks after the rumor mill started to churn with questions over whether Patton Oswalt was dating Meredith Salenger, the couple has come out and confirmed its relationship.

Actually, Oswalt and Salenger have done a lot more than that:

They've gone ahead and gotten engaged!

Meredith Salenger and Patton Oswalt

An insider has confirmed this unexpected news to People Magazine.

It has been broken just under a month since Oswalt and Salenger walked the red carpet together for the Los Angeles premiere of Baby Driver.

Typically, of course the love life of Patton Oswalt would not be considered a big deal in celebrity gossip circles.

But the comedian suffered a personal tragedy about 15 months ago when wife Michelle McNamara died unexpectedly in her sleep, leaving the actor to care for their eight-year-old daughter, Alice Rigney.

Since that unimaginable event, Oswalt has been very open about his struggles to move on.

In August of last year, for example, he penned a personal essay that compared depression to grief.

"Depression is the tallest kid in the 4th grade, dinging rubber bands off the back of your head and feeling safe on the playground, knowing that no teacher is coming to help you," Oswalt wrote on Facebook at the time, adding:

"But grief?

"Grief is Jason Statham holding that 4th grade bully's head in a toilet and then f-cking the teacher you've got a crush on in front of the class."

Michelle McNamara and Patton Oswalt Pic

To be more unique and specific?

"Grief makes depression cower behind you and apologize for being such a dick," Oswalt explained.

Oswalt and McNamara got married in 2005.

He said last summer that he was “face-down and frozen for weeks” after she passed away from an accidental overdose.

"It's 102 days later and I can confidently say I have reached a point where I'm crawling," Oswalt wrote in this same post. Which, objectively, is an improvement. Maybe 102 days later I'll be walking."

About a year later, thanks to Salenger, it certainly sounds as if the star is maybe even running.

“They met through mutual friend Martha Plimpton,” an insider tells People of the engaged twosome. “They started chatting as friends and it blossomed from there.”

Since making their public debut last month, Oswalt and Salenger have been candid about their feelings on social media.

"We are at "Dorky Disney T-shirt Relationship Level", from which no one returns. GREAT CTHULHU WHAT HAVE WE DONE?!?" Oswalt wrote in response to Meredith sharing the following snapshot of the couple:

Meredith Salenger Picture

Salenger also posted a picture of Oswalt on a beach in California, flexing whatever muscles he has in his arms.

"The love of my life,” she wrote as a caption, referring to Oswalt also as “my funny hunny."

Replied Oswalt on Twitter: I prefer "clown who's down" but whatever.

Patton Oswalt on Instagram

Meredith Salenger is a Harvard-educated actress.

She received her first major break in the industry at age 15 in Disney’s The Journey of Natty Gan.

She has credits in a number of television shows and movies; including Lake Placid, Hollywood Heights and voiceover work for cartoons like Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

We wish her and Patton Oswalt nothing but the very best.

Pilot Jones to Spill MORE Blac Chyna Secrets?

Pilot Jones is a former Glee star, but recently he's made headlines for locking lips with Blac Chyna -- and getting serious threats from Rob Kardashian, who of course is now in an out-of-control feud with Blac Chyna, because that's healthy.

After all of that, as well as some vile verbal abuse from both Rob and Chyna over Pilot's alleged sexuality, it looks like Pilot might get the chance for a little revenge.

And it sounds like he's going to spill a lot of the former couple's secrets.

Pilot Jones Selfie

According to a report by RadarOnline, Pilot Jones is signed to film for The A-List Miami, a reality series by the same folks who brought us The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Shahs of Sunset.

Per their source, Pilot's role on the show will "give great detail and insight into Pilot’s relationship with Chyna."

Too vague for you? Try this, from the same insider:

"Including her relationship with Rob Kardashian, partying, lavish gifts, vacations, business ventures and more."

Now, at the very least, this would mean Pilot confirming that Blac Chyna has expensive taste.

And it sounds like it might even confirm Rob Kardashian to be every bit the "sucker" that Snoop Dogg said that he was.

(Honestly, it sounds like Rob was the only one who didn't understand what this relationship was about from the get-go ... but he's still managed to make himself the bad guy)

And Pilot Jones has every reason to want to spill the beans on Rob and Chyna, and not just because it can help keep the spotlight on him. ...

Blac, Rob and Pilot Pics

One of Rob and Chyna's first big fights was about Pilot Jones, if you'll recall.

Pilot was at some parties with Blac Chyna, and since the two appeared to have made out at least once, it led people to wonder if Pilot Jones might be Dream's father.

Now, we know that Dream's father is, for better or for worse, Rob Kardashian. 

This led Blac Chyna to call Pilot Jones "gay" and insist that she wouldn't have slept with him.

Rob Kardashian took that a step further and issued slurs and what may have been death threats.

That's no real surprise at this point, since Rob Kardashian clearly has little to no control over what he posts on social media.

(We never thought that we'd miss the days when Rob was basically hibernating in social isolation)

A source tells RadarOnline that Pilot is bisexual, but until he comes out and uses that label himself, we can't know for sure his sexuality or what label he prefers.

So let's not expect his next photoshoot to include a speedo the colors of the bi flag.

Pilot Jones Picture

Though it does seem likely that Pilot Jones' sexuality will come up when he's filming The A-List Miami.

Whether or not he made out with Chyna at a party has little to do with sexuality.

Everybody makes out with everybody at parties, you know?

Pilot's alleged bisexuality isn't really relevant, according to that same source.

"But it has nothing to do with the fact of what happened between him and Chyna. They had sex."

Pilot is actually already a father, though we don't know whether that will make it onto this show or if he'll keep his kids out of it.

"He already has two amazing sons, but that isn’t even the issue! Blac Chyna can’t deny what happened between them, and she certainly shouldn’t be threatening him."

Incidentally, no charges were ever filed against Rob for his alleged threats against Pilot.

Pilot Jones Shirtless

Even the rumor of Pilot talking about Rob and Chyna is bound to drive up ratings.

In fact, even if no one watches the show who wouldn't have been tuning in already, this kind of news is great publicity for the show.

You gotta raise awareness if you want to draw in viewers.

But let's be honest -- we imagine that Pilot Jones is going to want to promote his brand, not affix it to a relationship that has miserably failed.

We don't doubt that Rob and Chyna will come up at some point, but it's probably mostly just a hook to lure viewers and possibly string them along until he topic comes up briefly.

Maybe it'll work.

Duggar Lawsuit Against City, Publisher to Be Dismissed?

Springdale, Arkansas officials have asked a judge to throw out a federal lawsuit filed by four members of the Duggar family of TLC fame.

At issue is the allegedly illegal release of documents.

Jessa, Joy, Jinger and Jana Duggar

Four Duggar women sued Northwest Arkansas officials, claiming they improperly released police investigation documents to a tabloid.

A police investigation in the 2000s determined that Josh Duggar, the family's oldest child, fondled the girls and at least one other girl.

No charges were filed against Josh Duggar because by the time officials learned of the incident, the statute of limitations had lapsed.

In 2015, the story was published by In Touch Weekly, stunning the public and irreparably changing the way the Duggars are perceived.

The sisters' lawsuit was filed in federal court in Fayetteville, alleging invasion of privacy, outrage and violation of the right to due process.

According to multiple media reports, the lawsuit filed against the city officials seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

The officials from the city argue that they have immunity from legal action in this case, and that the lawsuit is a baseless cash grab

Joy, Jessa, Jinger, Jill and Jana Duggar

In addition to various city officials, defendants include Bauer Media Group, the publisher of In Touch Weekly and related social media sites.

The lawsuit also lists 10 unidentified "Doe" defendants, believed to be employees of the defendants named specifically in the case.

Jill Dillard, Jessa Seewald, Jinger Vuolo and Joy-Anna Duggar, the plaintiffs, are members of the family featured on TLC's Counting On.

Previously, they starred on 19 Kids & Counting, which garnered 3.6 million viewers as recently as May 2015 before the scandal broke.

TLC canceled the show before reviving it in its present form, which maintains a considerably smaller albeit loyal following to this day.

Having previously filed to add his name to his sisters' case, Josh Duggar pulled out of the lawsuit last month for unspecified reasons.

Josh and Anna Duggar Anniversary Photo

It was revealed, thanks to the celebrity tabloid in question, that Josh confessed to "inappropriate touching" of his sisters in March 2002.

Then just a teenager himself, he admitted he had run hands over young girls in the family home as they slept, their parents said later.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar say they told the girls about the incident, disciplined their son and took precautions to prevent a recurrence.

They did not seek outside help for this.

Their choice to handle such an event "in house" for years, before eventually telling police (who also did nothing), was widely criticized.

Later in 2015, Josh was also outed as a user of Ashley Madison and went to sex rehab for cheating on wife Anna and porn addiction.

Michelle, Jim Bob, Josh and Anna Duggar

The motion to dismiss the lawsuit argues that the girls fail to make a constitutional claim against the city or establish intentional conduct.

A tort is an act injuring someone, after which the injured person may sue the wrongdoer for damages. Springdale says that didn't happen.

The defendants' attorneys said in their motion:

"In their complaint against the Springdale defendants the plaintiffs use such turns of phrase as 'contrary to the bounds of human decency' and 'basic notions of civility and personal dignity' and 'horrible and blatant re-victimization' in order to advance claims for damages." 

"The allegations of fact in the complaint, rather than the hyperbolic turns of phrase, are assumed to be true at this stage."

"Yet a close examination of the alleged facts reveals that individual Springdale defendants acted not outrageously, but well within the protection provided by the doctrine of qualified immunity."

Mackenzie Standifer: Viciously Bullied Over Ryan Edwards Drug Scandal?!

Want to hear something truly crazy?

Right now, at this point in time, there's a very good chance that Mackenzie Standifer is the least popular person in the entire Teen Mom franchise.

Ryan Edwards and Mackenzie Standifer Photo

Less popular than Farrah Abraham, Jenelle Evans, Matt Baier -- she's even less popular than her brand new, fresh-out-of-rehab husband, Ryan Edwards.

How did this happen?

Mackenzie is new to the show, she's not a main cast member. What did she do that was so unlikable to so many people?

Lots of things!

Though she was well received when she first began filming for the show -- remember, lots of people thought she'd be a good influence on Ryan -- things changed quickly in recent episodes.

It began when Maci confided in Mackenzie about the problems she'd been having in co-parenting Bentley with Ryan, and her issues with Ryan's parents.

Mackenzie Standifer Screen Cap

Mackenzie was sympathetic towards Maci, and she even agreed with her on several points, but then she turned around and told Ryan and his parents everything they'd talked about.

Conveniently leaving out the fact that, in the moment, she'd agreed with Maci.

It just seemed like a very two-faced move, and people began questioning her motives.

Things got sketchier during the Teen Mom trip to Puerto Rico, when Maci finally confirmed Ryan's drug use -- why would Mackenzie bring her son around all that?

Then we learned that she actually married Ryan just before he went to rehab -- again, why?

And THEN we saw on the Teen Mom finale that on the way to the wedding, Ryan nodded off so badly that Mackenzie had to grab the wheel and steer for him.

Mackenzie Standifer and Ryan Edwards

Instead of telling him to pull over, or being angry with him for putting their lives and the lives of countless others in danger, she hurried to turn off the cameras in the car.

And then she married him anyway.

If that wasn't bad enough -- it really, really was -- we also have that ridiculous letter she read during the reunion special. The one where she blamed Maci for Ryan's drug use.

Also the one in which she claimed to have only found out about his drug use on their wedding day, which is possibly the silliest thing anyone has ever said.

So take all that, pile it up together, and you have a good idea of why so many people are hating on Mackenzie right now.

And, as Mackenzie revealed in an Instagram post yesterday, people are hating her so much that they're sending her horrific messages.

Mackenzie Standifer Bullying Post

"U should kill urself," someone told her in a direct message. "Don't f-ckin do reality tv if you can't face the [truth]."

"Maci is right and I don't even like her [bitch]."

"So sorry for the language," Mackenzie captioned the screen shot. "This is an example of what is being sent to my box."

She advised her followers to visit a website called StopBullying.org "if you or someone you know is affected by bullying."

On one hand, it's obviously terrible and completely wrong for people to tell her to kill herself. There's absolutely no justifying that.

Mackenzie Standifer Wedding Pic

But on the other hand, it really is infuriating to see her hop up on her high horse yet again, proving that she's completely unwilling to admit that she might be in the wrong.

Oh, and speaking of wrong, Ryan left a pretty interesting comment on the photo ...

"Hey at lest I could go get help for my problem there is no help for dumb ass I'm just say half the bitches on the are dumb sluts," he wrote.

Yeah, seems like rehab did him a world of good.

We have a feeling this whole thing is going to get worse before it gets better ... if it ever does.

Meghan Markle: Did She Cheat on Prince Harry With Her Ex-Boyfriend?!

In the nine months since we first learned Prince Harry is dating Meghan Markle, there's been no shortage of gossip about the couple.

But most of it has centered around concerns that they're moving too fast and unconfirmed rumors that Harry and Meghan are engaged.

We suppose it was only a matter of time before the "trouble in paradise" talk began, and this week, it really kicked off in earnest.

Meghan Markle Red Carpet Image

For starters, there were murmurs out of London about Camilla Parker Bowles disapproving of Meghan and putting pressure on Harry to part ways with the actress.

Now, there are reports that Meghan was not quite single when she and Harry met.

According to The Sun, Meghan was still in a long-term relationship with Canadian "celebrity chef" Cory Vitiello.

We're not sure what makes Corey a celebrity, as opposed to just a highly-regarded chef, but we're guessing at some point, he popped up on the weird Canadian version of Chopped that used to be hosted by Tori Spelling's husband.

(Side note: Why does Canada need its own version of Chopped? How many variations on poutine can there be?)

Meghan Markle on the Red Carpet Photo

Anyway, the official narrative regarding Corey and Meghan has always been that they broke up, and she met Harry shortly thereafter.

But The Sun claims that there was a period of overlap, in which Meghan was hooking up with, if not dating, both dudes at the same time.

According to those in the know, Meghan met Harry in May of 2016, when he traveled to Toronto to promote the Invictus Games.

At that time, sources claim, she was very much still dating Corey, which might be part of the reason that Harry and Meghan went to such great pains to keep their relationship under wraps for so long.

Obviously, no one involved wants to confirm that Meghan was two-timing Corey and Harry, and that includes Corey.

Asked about the situation the chef replied simply,  “I can’t comment on that."

Seems like one of those situations where silence speaks volumes.


Kesha's New Video, Praying, Reminds the World She's Divine

Jerry Seinfeld has never been less relatable than when he refused to hug Kesha. Because she's wonderful.

The "Tik Tok" singer has been locked in a legal battle with Dr. Luke, whom she accuses of years of sexual abuse, and her music career has been on hiatus. Reportedly, Kesha's been desperate to get back to work and get her new music out there.

And now we have her new song, "Praying," along with it's vibrant and captivating video, below. We're not going to use the word "shooketh" but that would be an accurate description. Watch for yourself and see what we mean.

Kesha has been taking back her life, piece by piece, and this music video seems like exactly the comeback that she's wanted and needed all along.

Actually, let's be real -- it's also the comeback that we've needed from her.

Visually, Kesha takes us on a spiritual and perhaps religious journey.

(Spirituality and religion are related, but in a Venn Diagram sort of way)

Suffice it to say that the symbolism and imagery is not subtle.

Kesha appears to be dreaming or hallucinating or spiritually projecting or whatever while adrift at sea, stranded and weak and lamenting that she can't even seem to die to end the suffering, all in black and white.

On land, in color, she slumbers in colorful attire while two men in business suits wearing pigs heads (it is wildly unsettling, you guys) stand over her, thick drool dribbling from their open mouths.

We see Kesha, conscious, in multiple contexts and costumes.

In one, she's dressed as an angel and playing a keyboard and singing.

We also see her walking past a row of old-timey televisions that each have white signs for screens, some with horrible messages that she's likely received on social media (body-shaming, political nastiness, etc), and others with typical dystopian messages (like "CONSUME").

Among her other outfits is a veil with little butterflies all over it, but honestly our favorite costume for the whole video has to be the one with golden feathers that form a collar.

(Quite frankly it looks like something that Ravenna would wear, which is peak fashion goals)

She smashes one of those dystopian television signs -- one that reads "Weapons of Mass Deception."

Cute, right?

She also is chased by and fights off the pig-heads.

The music picks up and her powerful vocals become impossible to miss.

And no spoilers but the ending involves both a whale and a rainbow.

First and foremost, we should probably talk about some obvious influences.

Because you can't really talk about "Praying" without talking about Beyonce's Lemonade.

The use of color isn't new for Kesha, but the still and quiet opening with poetic narration?

That's straight out of the Lemonade playbook.

To be clear, we're not accusing Kesha of copying Beyonce, precisely.

Great artists -- truly great artists -- inspire others to follow in their footsteps, creating new trends and styles in the process.

We'd never in our lives seen anything like the journey that watching Lemonade took us on.

But Kesha's adventure is very different.

The setting is much more whimsical, and the subject matter is entirely different.

As the music builds, Kesha -- even the version of her on a raft -- seems to have some sort of spiritual awakening.

In a sense, that's what the whole song and video are about (among other things).

In terms of the religious imagery that you'll see, it sort of falls into that trap that a lot of (but not all) New Age-y spirituality does.

Like, Christian imagery absolutely takes center-stage, which is too much for most religious minorities.

But then the presence of non-Christian imagery and some of the more agnostic lyrics won't win over many Christians, either.

You know, though, you don't always have to appeal to everyone in every thing that you do.

Art is ultimately about self-expression and communicating that to others.

Kesha does that very successfully with "Praying," in terms of both the song and the video.

We've always known that Kesha is beautiful and has an amazing voice.

But in case you'd somehow forgotten, this music video will make it hard to miss.

Watch and enjoy for yourself.

We've already watched it a half-dozen times, easily.

Aleksandra Iarovikova: 90 Day Fiance Star Quits Social Media Over Bullying

$

Aleksandra Iarovikova of 90 Day Fiance fame has peaced out of social media, citing the relentless bullying and harassment she's received.

The final straw was a photo she posted of her infant daughter online and fans hatching the theory that her husband Josh is not the father.

Aleksandra Iarovikova, Husband

I just wanted to say sorry to all those people who support and understand me,” Aleksandra, who hails from Russia, captioned her final post.

A photo of herself and Josh, a Mormon missionary from Idaho, on Instagram is apparently her last; Aleksandra has disabled all comments.

“Without you I’m nothing and I love you all,” she added.

Aleksandra then explained her decision as such:

"And I want to say to all the haters and those who tried to humiliate me under every post, God bless you and your families."

"I don’t know what makes you so unhappy that you put all your negative to other people, but I know that getting your own life will make you feel better."

"Just what makes you think that you know me and my life? Did you live in my apartment? Was you there when I was dating & getting married to Josh?"

Aleksandra (90 Day Fiance)

She continued calling out her critics, incredulous at the idea that people online could say these things (which clearly hurt her deeply):

"Was you there when we did the first ultrasound?"

"Was you there when we were suffering during my labor? Did you cry with us when our girl was fighting for life in the NICU?"

"Was you there when we finally got to hold her for the first time? No? Then how dare you say something about me or Josh or our daughter?"

"I’m so done with reading the same negative comments over and over again. I’m so done with all this negative. Hope one day you’ll understand."

"But for now, I’m so done with you and this account."

"Thanks for everything. Bye."

Aleksandra Iarovikova

On Facebook, she changed her profile picture to one of herself and Josh, removing one in which you could see her daughter’s face.

Many speculated that the child is biracial, based at least in part on the fact that her best friend and travel companion is a black man.

She has posted lots of photos of the two together through the years, though Aleksandra has adamantly denied that Josh is not the father.

“Of course Josh is the father,” she said.

“I’d do a DNA test, but I don’t want to prove something to somebody who I don’t know. That’s sad that people don’t think and make up such silly things.”

As far as the little girl looking nothing like Josh, Aleksandra said “kids may look like their grandparents and nothing like their own parents.”

"I don’t look like my mom or dad, I look more like my grandma. My daughter looks like my mom. Seriously, they have the same face.

"They look absolutely the same, it’s crazy.”

Aleksandra Iarovikova, Josh

Regarding the online chatter that her close friend might be the father of her child, the 90 Day Fiance star shot that down as well.

“He is like my brother,” she said.

“That’s even disgusting to think about possible feelings between us. He promised him to protect me in Prague while Josh is far away.”

If her relationship with Josh is suffering, you wouldn't know it based on photos online. The couple appears to still be married and happy.

We are “still together” and “still love each other,” she said this spring, and by all accounts, Iarovikova's Instagram pics tell a similar story.

Apparently, Rihanna and Hassan Jameel have been hooking up for months, according to Us Weekly.

That goes back way before they were photographed necking in Ibiza.

The two of them were then photographed again -- wearing more clothes than they had been in the relative privacy of Rihanna's villa -- out getting coffee.

Hassan Jameel, as you might recall, is a Saudi businessman.

He's deputy president and vice chairman of a family-owned company that owns the rights to sell Toyota cars in Saudi Arabia.

Hassan may have a number of qualifiers in his position like "deputy" and "vice," but he's become something of the face of his family's company.

Probably not only because he's handsome, but let's not rule that out as a factor.

He's traveled the world to represent his family's business interests, and that's included meeting British royalty.

While we don't know Hassan Jameel's personal net worth, his family's said to be worth about $1.5 billion.

That's nothing to scoff at, even if you're an intensely successful singer who's worth hundreds of millions yourself.

Rihanna on Instagram

But we suspect that it isn't Jameel's money that drew Rihanna's interest.

And while the fact that Hassan is really, really, ridiculously good-looking can't have hurt, we know that Rihanna could have any guy on the planet, so there's more to this.

But Rihanna's past comments paint a pretty clear picture of what she wants in a man.

We already knew, of course, that Rihanna doesn't like casual sex.

(To each their own)

But our girl RiRi has some definite opinions about the qualities that she's seeking in a man.

And, for reasons that we can't explain, Rihanna describes her ideal lover in terms of personality rather than physical traits.

"I’m turned on by guys who are cultured."

That goes beyond a guy she can take to the J. Paul Getty art museum, folks.

Rihanna in Cannes

"They don’t have to have a single degree, but they should speak other languages or know things about other parts of the world or history or certain artists or musicians."

That's a wide array.

Note that she's not requiring that every guy who wants to date her be a polymath of some sort.

They just need to know something interesting. A skill or knowledge or experience.

And while we're sure that Rihanna would prefer guys with multiple talents to one-trick ponies, she's not demanding that potential suitors have every skill or piece of knowledge.

Rihanna understands that education never ends.

"I like to be taught."

And no, that does not mean that Rihanna likes mansplaining.

Basically, Rihanna likes a man whose mind is rich with thoughts, knowledge, and experiences.

Hey, more cute-and-dumb types for everyone who prefers those, right?

(Who would want to have to compete with Rihanna anyway?)

Rihanna Sits at Grammys

We're so, so glad that she's having a good time.

Rihanna brings joy to the world, whether it's through incredible music or through captivating music videos about killing men.

We're not claiming that Hassan Jameel is going to be Rihanna's happily ever after or that she'll be his, of course.

We don't know if they're dating-dating (hookups can go on for years without ever turning into dating) or if things will get even more serious than that.

They don't know what the future will hold and neither do we.

But happiness doesn't have to be permanent to have meaning.

Now that the world knows about it, the rest of us get to vicariously enjoy their relationship as long as it lasts.

Blac Chyna Nude Pics: Rubbed in Rob's Face by Ferrari!

Ferrari has sent a very clear and very explicit message to Rob Kardashian:

You may have smashed it first. But I smashed it most recently!

Blac Chyna Gets Kissed

The random rapper - who has sky-rocketed to viral fame in the last 24 hours, ever since Rob called him out as one of the men with whom Chyna recently slept - just issued a harsh shot across Kardashian's sensitive bow.

According to TMZ, Ferrari actually sent two photos of Blac Chyna nude to Rob.

In both images, the reality star is lying in bed alongside Ferrari, likely post-coital, and definitely wearing a couple pieces of jewelry.

One of the pieces is a $250,000 necklace that belongs to Ferrari... while the other is a bracelet reportedly purchased for Chyna by Rob.

OUCH, right? Talk about adding insult to extremely personal injury.

As part of his lengthy rant against Chyna’s infidelity yesterday, Rob said the bed in which his ex-fiancee is lying in this photo below is also the one in which she and Rob conceived daughter Dream.

Insiders tell TMZ that the following image was snapped about a month ago, prior to Rob finding out that Chyna was sleeping with Ferrari behind his back.

Blac Chyna Nude Pic

How did Kardashian discover this dalliance was taking place?

Because Chyna apparently sent him a video on July Fourth of her and Ferrari being all cute and cuddly and getting to first base with each other.

This taunting footage caused Rob to GO OFF against his ex on Instagram (and then on Twitter, after Instagram kicked him off its platform).

In one social media message after another, Rob slammed Chyna as a liar and a cheater and a plastic surgery abuser and even as a drug addict.

Kardashian also shared a number of naked pictures of Chyna, showing the world her butt and boobs as evidence of body parts he paid to have altered.

He even posted a photo of Chyna's vagina, alleging she had just sent it to him a few days ago as a form of seduction, not long before the two had unprotected sex.

Perhaps on the advice of an attorney, however, Rob eventually deleted all racy snapshots of Blac Chyna because she may very well pursue legal action against her unstable ex under California's revenge porn law.

Indeed, what began as a funny situation that most followers chalked up to just another Rob Kardashian-Blac Chyna beef has spiraled into something far more deranged and serious.

And this also raises a few questions about the lewd images Ferrari evidently sent to Kardashian.

Did Chyna approve of these pictures? If so, might she have a harder time challenging the illegality of the photos Rob shared?

We aren't attorneys, but it would seem to make her case more challenging if she were to attempt to argue that Rob violated her privacy by exposing her lady parts to the Internet...

... yet she then gave Ferrari permission to do nearly the same.

Granted, there's no actual nudity in these photos. And her privacy cannot be violated if she gave someone permission, which she most decidedly did NOT do with Rob.

Moreover, what if Chyna isn't aware that Ferrari has taunted Rob with these sexual photos?

Could revenge porn charges then be brought against him as well?

dumb rob tweets

For her part, Chyna initially fired back at Rob by claiming he beat her, but then quickly deleted the Snapchat post that made this allegation.

She's said nothing about the scandal since then, but she has updated her Instagram page with a couple of beauty product photos and links to the her website, LashedCosmetics.com.

It looks like Blac is trying to profit of this controversy, as she assumes folks will be visiting her Instagram page on the reg and is therefore directing them to one of her business ventures.

Kris Jenner may be angry at her near-daughter-in-law for what Chyna did to her son, but she has to silently be applauding Blac for this maneuver.

Polish First Lady Disses Donald Trump, Becomes Internet Hero

We don't know Agata Kornhauser-Duda. We've never met Agata Kornhauser-Duda. But we'd like to shake her hand.

Which is more than Agata Kornhauser-Duda wants to do with Donald Trump.

The Polish First Lady posed for a photo opportunity with the President, fellow First Lady Melania Trump and Polish President Andrzej Duda on Thursday, standing side-by-side with the aforementioned trio in front of the Warsaw Uprising Monument on Krasinski Square.

Just moments before the quartet gathered for the picture above, Donald Trump delivered a speech during the Three Seas Initiative Summit in Duda's native country.

After the cameras stopped clicking, however, and it was time for the wives and husbands to part ways, Duda got in what can only be interpreted as a parting shot at the controversial Commander-in-Chief.

In the video below, you'll see the Presidents shake hands and utter a few pleasantries.

You'll then see Trump extend his hand out to Duda, only for her to walk right past it and embrace Melania instead!

HA!

As far as we know, she never circled back and acknowledged The Donald, who was left standing with an embarrassed, angry and stunned look on his face.

In Duda's defense, it's possible that Trump's hand was so small she didn't even see it there.

But watch the video for yourself and decide: Was this a purposeful dissing of our President?

Alaskan Bush People Fans: Don't Close Browntown! Honor Ami Brown's Dream!

$

Alaskan Bush People's seventh and final season promised to include the biggest challenge and darkest moments yet in the series about a family roughing it in the wilderness.

Rumor proved true when Ami Brown's lung cancer diagnosis was revealed.

Now fans of the family and the series have another concern about the family's fate, and this time the worries are about the entire Brown clan.

Alaskan Bush People Family

You'd think that a television series that began right after their old home had been burned to the ground (for being on public land illegally) would end on a happier note than it began.

But that's not how things always work out in life.

Especially not when we're talking about people who are dedicated to living in the wilderness.

Ami Brown is receiving treatment in the "lower 48," meaning in the US but not in Alaska (or Hawaii).

Obviously, with such heavy news and the final season of the series, there's been talk of the Brown family closing down Browntown and rejoining civilization.

Billy Brown said as much.

And that is the new source of concern among some of the fans.

Ami Brown with Her Son

You might think that fans of the series, knowing that the series is ending anyway and wanting the best for the Brown family, would rejoice at that news that the Brown family would rejoin civilization.

(While, of course, still grieving for Ami Brown's diagnosis)

But their reaction has actually been the opposite.

Fans use Facebook groups to discuss the series.

It's understandable that they've become intensely attached to these people after watching them for so many years.

What's a little more perplexing is the fan reactions to learning that the Brown family is all reportedly living in the lower 48.

Ami in the Hospital

Fans of Alaskan Bush People are asking the Brown family children to return to Browntown, because fans believe that it will honor the dedication and dreams of their parents.

They even hope that Noah's fiancee, Rhain, will join the Brown family in the wilderness.

This speaks volumes about these particular fans.

In part, it says that they've become attached to Ami and Billy and their dream and lifestyle, rather than just to the younger characters.

There's arguably a romantic quality to the idea of living in the woods and making it on your own.

People love The Hunger Games, after all. But those books and films are pretend.

The problem in Alaskan Bush People is that they had kids and raised their children in that way of life.

Kind of hard to get a fair start in life when you spend a lot of your childhood in temporary shelters, you know?

Regardless, they're now (mostly) adults and reality stars and they're all starting new chapters in their lives.

It's more than a little unsettling to see so many fans wanting them to not do that.

Alaskan Bush People Pic

What the Brown family members deserve is to live their own lives.

We're sure that they'll all have more opportunities in the future based on their existing fame.

Everybody could get a book deal, for starters.

Noah and Rhain can do their alternative/goth thing wherever their lives take them.

If this were happening a few years ago, we'd suggest that Bear Brown might get some modeling gigs.

Sometimes fans grow too attached the idea of the show and not the people.

If the folks on Naked and Afraid stayed on the show for more than half a decade, fans would probably be upset when it came time for them to put on clothes.

Fandom's a weird thing, and endings are always bittersweet.

Lauren Comeau: Javi Marroquin's Girlfriend Opens Up On Relationship Challenges

Just yesterday, we learned that Javi Marroquin is dating Lauren Comeau, a Maine native and South Carolina resident whom he reportedly met through a mutual friend.

It seems as though the relationship is in its early days, but it also seems that both parties are very, very into it.

Javi gushed about Lauren in a recent interview with Radar Online, and now she's following suit.

Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau

Lauren spoke to the site today, and while she appears to be just as giddy as Javi, she's also not in denial about the unique difficulties of their relationship.

Comeau seems to have no plans of leaving South Carolina, and with a young son and a cushy reality TV gig, we doubt Javi will be moving relocating outside of Delaware any time soon.

That means that in addition to the challenges of Javi being a reality star with an even more famous ex, Marroquin and Comeau are dealing with the difficulties presented by a long term relationship.

“Distance isn’t ever easy,” Comeau told Radar.

“But we have a lot planned and busy schedules in between so I think we’ll handle it well.”

Javi Pic

Comeau also opened up about the unusual way in which she and Javi met.

It seems a mutual friend introduced them online and they communicated for several weeks before meeting in person at a recent wedding.

“We connected through a mutual friend in Delaware and finally got to meet at a recent wedding,” she said.

“We clicked instantly, and just really enjoyed each other’s company. I’m excited to see what happens.”

Javi seemed equally optimistic in his own interview:

Javi Marroquin Just Chills

“This one feels right,” he told Radar.

He recently posted a photo of himself with Comeau, along with the following caption:

“Sometimes I wish I can go back in life, not to change sh-t just to feel a couple things twice."

Both parties say they'd like to "take things slow," but we think their actions are speaking louder than their words.

Gushing to media outlets about your new relationship doesn't smack of "taking it slow" to us.

Nicky Hilton: ALREADY Pregnant with Her Second Child!

$

We're two days shy of a year from when Nicky Hilton Rothschild gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Lily Grace Rothschild.

Apparently the 33-year-old heiress-turned-aristocrat is wildly enamored with motherhood -- because she's already pregnant with her second child.

Nicky Hilton's Gone Full Brit

Yes, before her daughter's first birthday, Nicky Hilton is pregnant again with another Rothschild.

"The couple are thrilled about the new addition to their family," a representative confirmed to People after The Daily Mail first reported that the two were pregnant.

According to previous statements from Nicky's mother, Kathy Hilton, Nicky is totally on top of motherhood.

"She’s unbelievable. With my babies, if I wanted to go pick them up I would just go in the room in the middle of the night, but Nicky is very much on a schedule. This is nap time, this is tummy time, so I’m just kind of like, ‘Okay.’"

So long as nobody's, like, being hurt or traumatized or whatever, it's totally fine for people to have different parenting styles.

"I’ll tell her certain things, but she’s read up on everything."

Whatever Nicky had learned from books at that point, we're sure that she's learned a lot more from being a mom to little Lily Grace.

It sounds like Nicky pays as much careful attention to motherhood as her big sister Paris does to business.

Nicky Hilton and James Rothschild in the Snow

The Rothschild family is old and aristocratic.

(That's why you almost certainly recognized the name even if you haven't followed Nicky's life)

And as much as we in the States like to poke fun at the long and sordid history of interconnected European royal families, celebrity families in the US can get into a similar predicament.

For example, Nicky's children won't just be heir to the legacies of both the Rothschild and Hilton families, though obviously those are both big deals.

Nicky's kids will also be related to Kim Richards and Kyle Richards, of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fame.

Kim and Kyle are already Lily Grace's great-aunts, actually.

Though, if we're talking aunts, there aren't many bigger deals in life than having Paris Hilton for an aunt.

That's the dream.

Nicky Hilton in Pink

It's almost impossible to read up on Nicky Hilton's relationship with James Rothschild and not think of another young couple where the woman is a famous American and the man is British and comes from an extremely prominent family.

Reportedly, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been very cozy lately, continuing to see each other in private as often as their respective schedules will allow.

There's still some controversy over the idea of Harry marrying an American -- yes, even in 2017 -- but we like to think that British aristocrats like James Rothschild marrying Americans helped to pave the way in British society.

Sometimes, social progress "trickles up," if you will.

And then, of course, there's the fact that Prince William married Kate Middleton, who is British but was a commoner.

Sometimes you have to chip away at senseless traditions, one tiny piece at a time, to make way for others.

Parallels aside, though, we don't expect the sort of pomp and public enthrallment for Nicky and James' new child as royal babies receive, obviously.

Actually, given the nightmare of Brexit and generally mixed public feelings about the monarchy, we wonder how much attention future royal babies will receive compared to how much attention was lavished on George and Charlotte.

But the only attention that Lily Grace and her expected younger sibling need, of course, comes from their parents.

Nicky Hilton At The Fashion Institute Of Technology's Future Of Fashion Runway Show

Last time, we learned about Nicky Hilton's first pregnancy in January.

That was about six months before Lily Grace was born.

We know that Nicky Hilton likes to keep to regular schedules.

(And The Daily Mail says that "it is understood" that the baby is over three months along)

So ... are we looking at a January baby?

Rob Kardashian: Family Fears Relapse, Suicide Attempt in Wake of Blac Chyna Scandal

In case you somehow haven't heard, Rob Kardashian went off the rails in frightening fashion on social media yesterday.

Rob attacked Blac Chyna on Instagram, accusing her of cheating on him and being addicted to various hard drugs.

When Rob began posting nude photos of Chyna, seemingly as an act of revenge inspired by her alleged infidelity, Instagram shut down his account, but he continued his tirade on Twitter.

Rob Kardashian, Daughter

Finally, Rob simmered down and stopped posting, but only after committing what many have described as a sex crime against his ex and making himself vulnerable to losing custody of his and Blac's 7-month-old daughter, Dream.

Now, his family and friends reportedly fear that the worst is yet to come.

Before he met Chyna, Rob was reclusive and prone to compulsive overeating and self-medication through alcohol and drug use.

Sources close to the family tell Radar Online that his family is concerned he'll return to his old ways in the wake of his public meltdown.

“It seems like no one can do anything to help Rob and they have all tried,” says one insider.

“He is not working out and he is not eating healthy. He is really down on himself right now and no one can do anything because he shuts his family out whenever they try.”

The source adds that Rob has fallen back into troubling behavioral patterns that are making it difficult for him to serve as any kind of father figure to his daughter:

“He stays up late and then sleeps all day and seems to feel like he will never be happy again. He is blaming Chyna for everything,” the insider claims.

Fans have pointed out a reference to Rob's alleged suicidal tendencies in a recent episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

In the scene, Kris Jenner's boyfriend Corey Gamble is seen consoling Rob after a particularly bad fight with Chyna.

“People that don’t know you are going to get the idea that you were suicidal," Gamble remarks at one point.

Some are now pointing to the exchange as an indication that Rob's troubles go even deeper than the public realizes.

Here's hoping the troubled 30-year-old is able to get the help he needs before he does further damage to his own life and the lives of those around him.

Lindsay Shookus: Dating Ben Affleck! For Real!

Ben Affleck reportedly spent July Fourth with Jennifer Garner and their children.

But the actor and the actress merely hung out as friends.

The real fireworks for Affleck, according to E! News insiders, takes place when the star spends time with someone named Lindsay Shookus...

Ben Affleck Rocks a Suit

... because the two are totally getting it on! In bed!

Shookus is a producer at Saturday Night Live and an anonymous source tells E! that she and Affleck recently met up in London while the actor was abroad for work.

The duo took in a showing of Sam Mendes' play Ferryman at the time, with the reliable celebrity news outlet even featuring a photo of Affleck with his hand on his new lady's back as proof.

"It's more than a summer fling," the insider says, immediately contradicting him or herself by adding:

"They are having fun and care for each other. It's early and they are taking it slow."

Affleck and Shookus also stepped out in Los Angeles last night, taking their romance semi-public for the first time.

Ben Affleck at CinemaCon

Shookus graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor's degree and her middle name is Anne.

She previously helped produce 30 Rock and was included among those who won an Emmy Award for the 40th anniversary Saturday Night Live special.

The blonde beauty started working at SNL way back in 2006.

Following many months of up, downs, backs and forths, Jennifer Garner and Affleck filed for divorce this past April.

They had announced their separation two years beforehand, yet continued to spend time together as the parents of three kids.

There had been many rumors of reconciliation floating around the Internet during this time, but neither Garner nor Affleck ever talked this way. They never hinted that they'd get back together.

It seems pretty clear at this point that the stars simply remained on strong terms because they wanted what was best for their family. And they still do.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner leave Tavern in Brentwood

Previously, Affleck had been linked romantically to Sienna Miller and Jennifer Lopez.

But those reports were likely complete nonsense.

Heck, he didn't even move out of the home he shared with Garner until early May!

This Lindsay Shookus relationship is the real deal, however, marking Affleck's first attempt to truly move on since becoming single.

According to court documents, he and Garner filed for joint legal and physical custody of their children, meaning they'll remain a close part of each other's lives for a very long time.

That's sweet, really. And very mature.

"Jen is a superhero mom," Affleck said earlier this year.

"She is an amazing mother and I'm really lucky to have her as a partner to co-parent these kids with. We try our best, we put them first and that's what we do."
