  1. Here’s the good news: Hell’s Kitchen has been renewed for season 23. Here’s the really superb news: it’s also been renewed for season 24! The double renewal announcement surely made fans happy, but with it came the reveal of some big changes coming to the competition in the years to come. While the show won’t kick off officially until fall (release date below), we already have some spoilers to share about the season ahead. Chef Gordon Ramsay marks the grand opening of the first-ever Gordon Ramsay HELL’S KITCHEN restaurant at Caesars Palace on January 26, 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Since the beginning, Gordon Ramsay filmed his massive, FOX hit show all across Los Angeles, scattered from studio to studio. That is until season 19, when the show went on the road and filmed in Las Vegas. The trip was so successful, the show stayed in Vegas for Season 20. Now, the show may have it’s forever home 3,000 miles from where it started. The next two upcoming seasons will be filmed in the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut. Ramsay opened the sixth installment of his signature Hell’s Kitchen restaurants their last year. It seems that the property was custom-built for the show in mind. Could this be a new look for a new show? That’s the promise from Gordon! Gordon Ramsey Teases ‘Intense Competition’ When season 23 of Hell’s Kitchen was officially announced, Gordon celebrated the news by promising great things to come. Almost 20 years of doing this may make some think he’s slowing down. Think again! “As my very first show on Fox, Hell’s Kitchen holds a very special place in my heart and it’s incredibly gratifying to have it renewed for its 23rd and 24th seasons,” said Ramsay. “This show just keeps getting better and better, and with Fox, ITV and A. Smith & Co. as my partners, you can expect even bigger challenges, stronger talent and more intense competition in Hell’s Kitchen in the years to come.” Now that’s what we like to hear! Bring on the drama!

Some Reddit fans were hoping it would be an all-star year – while some decidedly did NOT want that at all! What we do know is that kitchen isn’t the only thing changing in season 23. Namely, Sous Chef James is returning as Sous Chef for the blue team, due to Sous Chef Jason opening new restaurants during the time of filming. Additionally, it looks like one of the guests this season will be comedian Nikki Glaser. In June, Gordon posted a photo of Nikki and her pop on the set of HK around the time the new season would be filming. Dead giveaway much? The Premiere Date: Set Your Calendars The best news of all is that fans don’t have long to wait to see what happens next. Hell’s Kitchen’s season 23 premiere will debut on Fox on September 26, 2024 at 8pm. Even better news than this is that it’s rumored season 24 started filming right after they wrapped on season 23, so we may get a fall AND a spring season. By the by, 2025 officially marks the show’s 20th anniversary. The show premiered on May 30, 2005. Maybe season 25 will debut then? We like the symmetry of that! ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ Season 23 Spoilers: The ‘Big Change,’ Cast … was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article
  2. After several months of close proximity, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will now be forced to readjust to the demands of a long distance relationship. As People reports, with Kansas City Chiefs training camp getting underway this week, Travis won’t be able to follow Taylor on tour anymore. And obviously, Taylor can’t disappoint legions of Swities by pausing the European leg of her Eras Tour.

(Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) So for the next few weeks, Taylor and Travis will have an ocean between them more often than not. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Long Distance Relationship According to a new report from People, Travis and Taylor had a tough time going their separate ways after he caught her concert in Germany last week.

(Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) “Travis’ last few concerts were bittersweet,” one source told the outlet. “They knew their time together like this was coming to an end, and he made sure to spend every minute he could with Taylor.” Yes, the separation comes as no surprise. And it’s the sort of thing that couples have to deal with in situations where both partners have travel-intensive careers.

Taylor and Travis Are Up to the Challenge, Insider Says “It’s definitely tough to be apart, but they do everything they can to make it work and show up for each other,” says the source. “They’re so in love and very, very happy together.

(Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) Fans were hoping that Taylor and Travis would announce their engagement before the start of the NFL season. But with how busy both of their schedules are at the moment, that might not be in the cards. Fortunately, pop icon and the NFL legend won’t be apart for very long.

And you can bet that whenever she’s able, Taylor will be in the crowd, cheering Travis on as he attempts to lead the Chiefs to their third straight Super Bowl. It won’t be easy. But we’re sure that with Taylor’s support, Travis feels like he can accomplish anything.

  3. Sad news from the world of music today. Lucy Bleu-Knight — the stepdaughter of Guns ‘N’ Roses guitarist Slash — has passed away at the age of 25. According to In Touch, Lucy died at “a private residence” over the weekend. An autopsy was performed, and the body has now been released to the family for final preparations. Slash performs onstage at SiriusXM Presents Slash Ft. Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators at Whisky a Go Go on September 11, 2018 in West Hollywood, California. (Photo by Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for SiriusXM) Slash shared the tragic news of his stepdaughter’s death on social media. The rock legend described Lucy-Bleu as the “beloved daughter of Meegan Hodges and Mark Knight, stepdaughter of Samantha Somers Knight and Slash, sister of Scarlet Knight, stepsister of London and Cash Hudson.” He noted that she “passed away peacefully in Los Angeles on July 19, 2024.” What Was Lucy-Bleu Knight’s Cause of Death While the autopsy has been completed, Lucy-Bleu’s cause of death is currently listed as “deferred.” This might mean that medical examiners are still waiting on additional information, such as the results of a toxicology report. Lucy’s Instagram account had been inactive since January, but on Monday, a scheduled post appeared on the page. Lucy-Bleu’s Final Words Revealed on Instagram “Whether I made you feel excluded, manipulated/ controlled you, told you to quit your day job from the comfort of being financially supported by my parents, or drowned real issues in toxic positivity-I am sorry,” she captioned the photo above. Meegan Hodges and Slash attend the 96th Annual Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California on March 10, 2024. (Photo by VALERIE MACON/AFP via Getty Images) “Countless missed opportunities and connections due to a disgustingly big ego, insecure heart and fear of being vulnerable,” Lucy-Bleu added. “May my soul learn to evolve from my poor job at being Lucy-Bleu. Peace.” The post has led many commenters to the conclusion that Lucy took her own life. But it’s important to note that that’s just speculation at this point. Slash and Meegan Hodges attend the âHalloween Horror Nightsâ Opening Night at Universal Studios Hollywood on September 09, 2021 in Universal City, California. (Photo by Rich Polk/Getty Images for Universal Studios Hollywood) “You have nothing to apologize for, I’ll see you again, I love you. I’ve got you,” one friend of Lucy’s commented on the post. “We love you Lucy always have and always will. May you rest in peace with angels beautiful soul. See you on the other side angel,” another wrote, according to In Touch. Slash Pays Tribute to Lucy-Bleu Slash was similarly effusive in a loving tribute to his late stepdaughter. “Lucy-Bleu was an incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer, and a charming, lovable, sweet soul,” he wrote on Instagram. HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA – MARCH 10: Meegan Hodges and Slash attend the 96th Annual Academy Awards on March 10, 2024 in Hollywood, California. (Photo by Aliah Anderson/Getty Images) “The family asks for privacy at this time and requests that social media speculation be kept to a minimum as they grieve and process this devastating loss.” As the list of stars we’ve lost in 2024 continues to grow, it’s important to bear in mind that it’s the substance of a person’s life and not the circumstances of their death that really matters. Our thoughts go out to Lucy-Bleu’s loved ones during this enormously difficult time.

  4. The Josh Duggar autograph market is larger than any of us would like to believe. Though Josh Duggar remains in prison where he belongs, that doesn’t mean that the world has heard the last of him. He has reportedly threatened to write a tell-all book exposing his family. He might be the only Duggar child who’s actually worse than his awful parents, so his take might not be worth too much. Then again … his autographs have apparently become popular while he’s behind bars. Gross! Disgraced former television personality on “19 Kids And Counting” Josh Duggar poses for a booking photo after his arrest April 29, 2021. (Photo Credit: Washington County Sheriff’s Office via Getty Images) Josh Duggar is signing autographs now? This is, at times, a sick world. According to a report that The US Sun published on Sunday, July 21, Josh Duggar has been offering his signature to fellow inmates, who then gift his autograph to friends and family. “Josh has been signing autographs on newspapers articles about him for prisoners’ family members,” the inside source reported. During his time on TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting, Josh Duggar was hiding dark secrets. (Image Credit: TLC) Remember, Josh isn’t behind bars for shady financial practices or some bar scuffles. His 151-month sentence followed his guilty verdict for receiving and possessing child sex-abuse material (CSAM). Authorities found abhorrent files on his device — photos and video of the abuse of prepubescent girls. Originally, Josh’s sentence would have ended on August 12, 2032. However, he received an extension to October 2 of 2032 after prison authorities discovered a contraband phone in his possession. There appears to be a pattern to Josh’s behavior, whether he’s breaking prison rules, cheating on his wife, or downloading media of little girls’ lives being destroyed. He wants to hide all of his violations when it comes to the family cult’s rules, but hiding things from actual authorities seems to be an afterthought (if that). That’s how he was caught. There was a time when TLC’s cameras caught Josh Duggar pretending to be an upstanding man and a good husband to Anna Duggar. Those were lies. (Image Credit: TLC) Why would anyone want Josh Duggar’s autograph? There is a perverse fascination with the worst people in our society — especially if they are so vile that they become famous. When someone is already famous and then turns out to be scum, a lot of people lose their sense of judgment. Folks who have lost perspective sometimes pay actual money for a gruesome “piece of history.” Now-disgraced criminal Josh Duggar sits beside wife Anna Duggar on 19 Kids and Counting. (Image Credit: TLC) When it’s a John Wayne Gacy painting, it’s called Murderabilia. In this case, it’s just a sick Josh Duggar autograph. Some collectors won’t pause to think about what prizing something like that says about them. That’s not to say that everyone involved is a terrible person. Some may be. Others are perhaps just not thinking clearly. In 2015, grim truths about Josh Duggar came to light in the wake of his cheating scandal. Long-suffering wife Anna Duggar could have ended the marriage then … but that is not how the cult does things. (Image Credit: TLC) Is he really writing a book? Josh Duggar has not publicly announced his alleged autograph service, let alone his threats to write a tell-all book. Reports claim that he’d be writing the book to support Anna Duggar and their children. Apparently, the Duggar clan as a whole is no longer as flush with cash as they were when TLC was shelling out millions to Jim Bob for them to promote their cult on TV. We don’t know who’s in the market to read Josh’s version of anything. That said, the people who’d excitedly collect his autograph might also blindly purchase his memoir.

  5. Members of the Ton are flipping over the news that Benedict will be the focus of season four of Bridgerton officially – but how many of you know that Luke Thompson’s girlfriend already appears on the show? All right, rumored girlfriend. They aren’t official-official yet, though they did proclaim their love on social media. And they’ve been spotted PDA-ing. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s dive into everything we know about Luke’s love life! Harriet Cains and Luke Thompson attend the Vanity Fair EE BAFTA Rising Star Party at Pavyllon London on January 31, 2024 in London, England. (Photo by Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images) Luke Thompson’s Girlfriend: Who Is Harriet Cains? Dearest gentle reader, while season 3 of Bridgeton followed the saga of Penelope Featherington finally winning the heart of Colin Bridgerton, there’s been a off-screen coupling of the two houses happening behind the scenes. Luke Thompson and his Bridgerton co-star, Harriet Cains, who plays Philippa Featherington, have sparked dating rumors for months. It all began just as the new year started. The pair were spotted getting very cozy at the Vanity Fair EE Rising Stars party on Jan. 31, 2024. Luke was seen kissing her hair, and Harriet seemed, well, girl seemed to enjoy it. Don’t know how else to put it! Now, as of now, neither Luke nor Harriet has confirmed or denied the romance. In fact, when Harriet posted an Instagram from the event, she pointedly ignored a comment about whether or not she was dating Thompson. But while snooping on her Instagram, fans noticed that back in 2021, Harriet proclaimed that Thompson was her “favorite” Luke of the Bridgerton cast. (Sorry, Luke Newton!) Now, has Luke made the same declaration on social media? Afraid not, as the man behind Benedict Bridgerton values his privacy. Why Luke Thompson Hasn’t Gone Instagram Official Yes, if you’re waiting for a romantic gesture in the digital age from Luke, you’ll be waiting in vain. Turns out, he doesn’t have Instagram – are any social media for that matter. And tbh, he’s pretty happy about it. “I don’t think ‘shy away’ is the right word,” he said of his approach to social media in a Vestal magazine interview. . “For many actors, social media is an ingenious way of continuing the performance. So on some level, I’d love to get involved; I just don’t think I can make it work. I’ve realized that a constantly updating platform is not something I feel equipped to deal with; it takes a sledgehammer to my attention span. And I want to be able to focus when I need to. It also seems like a lot of effort, so maybe I’m just horrifically lazy.” So, how will we know if they’re actually a couple or not? Suppose we’ll have to see what happens when season 4 of Bridgerton starts filming. Because it’s poised to get started asap. In case you didn’t hear, Benedict has been confirmed as the focus of the next season! Luke Newton, Harriet Cains, and the full cast of Bridgerton attend the special screening of “Bridgerton” Season 3 – Part Two at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on June 12, 2024 in London, England. (Photo by John Phillips/Getty Images) ‘Bridgerton’ Season 4 to Center on Benedict Bridgerton’s Love Story With ‘Lady in Silver’ Sophie It was announced on July 23 that Benedict would be the next Bridgerton sibling to find their soulmate. The season will follow the events of the novel “An Offer From a Gentleman.” It’s a Cinderella-type story that finds Benedict searching for a “lady in silver” he meets at his mother’s masquerade ball. In Netflix’s official announcement, the logline confirms that Benedict will be searching for said “lady in silver,” but does not explicitly mention the character from the book, a low-born woman named Sophie Beckett. Given Benedict’s confirmed pansexuality – and the gender-twist in Francesca‘s storyline – many fans are curious to see how close to the book’s narrative the new season will go. While a full cast list has not been announced, both Bridgerton and Featherington families are meant to reprise their roles. Here’s hoping we see Harriet alongside Luke next season – even if it is just as friends and neighbors.

  6. There’s been an update in the story of Hugh Jackman and his stunning divorce. In the months following the news of his separation, he’s spent a lot of time promoting Deadpool & Wolverine. But the question of Hugh Jackman’s next love has arisen among fans. Everyone wants to see him happy. He was married for nearly three decades. Is he planning on dating again? And what has his ex said now that she’s broken her silence? Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness attend The 2023 Met Gala Celebrating “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line Of Beauty” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 01, 2023. (Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) Hugh Jackman Divorce From Deborra-Lee Furness: What Happened? In 1995, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness met on the set of Corelli. This was years before Jackman took on the iconic mantle of Wolverine. A little over one year later, the two were married. That marriage would go on to last a whopping 27 years. In September of 2023, Jackman and Furness announced their split. Thus far, it has proven to be a remarkably amicable breakup — with Furness even helping Jackman celebrate his birthday. Deborra-Lee Furness and Hugh Jackman attend the Apple Original Films’ “Ghosted” New York Premiere at AMC Lincoln Square Theater on April 18, 2023. (Photo Credit: Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images) Amicable though Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness’ separation and presumably impending divorce may be, many fear that it has come as a cost. You don’t end a 27-year marriage without some sort of feelings on the matter. Fans worry that Jackman’s social media is showing signs of … well, something. At worst, red flags for his mental health. And at best, that perhaps his wife handled his Instagram, and that now he needs a social media manager. Either way, posts with awkward captions and showing him taking random selfies have people concerned. It’s more or less the same crowd that keeps panicking when Britney Spears dances. Has the looming divorce really left Hugh Jackman a shell of his former self? No. Specifically, an inside source spoke to The Daily Mail this spring about how Hugh Jackman feels. “Hugh is aware of his fans and their concern for his well-being, but he is good,” the insider assured. Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness attend “The Son” red carpet at the 79th Venice International Film Festival on September 07, 2022. (Photo Credit: Kate Green/Getty Images) “He is excited for Deadpool and being Wolverine again,” the source shared. “That’s where most of his focus is going – on work and being present for that.” The insider added: “When it comes to his love life, he thinks it is funny that so many people are wanting to know all about it. He will get there again. It isn’t a priority, but if something materialized, he would make it a priority.” Then, the source affirmed: “But he is healthy and happy and that is something he cherishes right now.” It sounds like his few awkward Instagram posts may have been the product of him being a very busy 55-year-old man, and not in fact a sign of a nervous breakdown. Good to hear! Deborra-Lee Furness and Hugh Jackman arrive at the Hotel Excelsior during the 79th Venice International Film Festival on September 06, 2022. (Photo Credit: Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images) Does Deborra-Lee have an update on the split? Earlier this year, Deborra-Lee Furness spoke to The Daily Telegraph at the premiere of Force of Nature: The Dry 2. “It is kind of exciting,” she said of her thoughts about the future. This was her first time speaking out since the breakup news months earlier. “You know what, change, transition, evolution is a little frightening and we are all a bit scared of it,” Furness admitted. “But I think it is probably our greatest gift.” Hugh Jackman Divorce Update: His Marriage History With Deborra-Lee Furness was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

  7. Nicole Kidman doesn’t speak openly about Tom Cruise every day. Photos of Tom Cruise with his kids are rare. Even rarer is Nicole Kidman mentioning her ex-husband following their infamous divorce in 2001. Much of the world assumes that she does not want to alienate their adult children. They, like their famous father, are Scientologists. Yet the meme queen of AMC is speaking up now and directly addressing their erstwhile marriage. Tom Cruise and his Australian wife, Nicole Kidman arrive at the official opening of Fox Studios Australia in Sydney 07 November 1999. (Photo Credit: TORSTEN BLACKWOOD/AFP via Getty Images) Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise costarred in ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ Eyes Wide Shut is a 1999 film that has become a common frame of reference even for those who have never seen the film. Whether it’s a comedic skit with visual references to the Stanley Kubrick project, a conspiracy theorist evoking its vibes while claiming that it’s all true, or people discussing mild kinks, Eyes Wide Shut is a cultural touchstone. Tom Cruise starred in it. So did Nicole Kidman. The two were husband and wife at the time. Dr. William Harford (Tom Cruise) and Alice Harford (Nicole Kidman) in Stanley Kubrick’s “Eyes Wide Shut.” (Photo Credit: Warner Bros) On July 16, The Los Angeles Times released an interview with Nicole Kidman in which she reflected upon the film, the process, and whether her marriage at the time influenced Kubrick’s directorial vision. “I suppose he was mining it,” the beloved actress mused upon reflection. She and Cruise had been married for about 8 years at the time of the film. “There were ideas he was interested in,” Kidman recalled. “He’d ask a lot of questions.” Actors Tom Cruise, who stars in the film, and Nicole Kidman arrive at the premiere of “Mission Impossible 2” May 18, 2000. (Photo Credit: Chris Weeks/Liaison) Stanley Kubrick may have taken inspiration from the real couples’ real marriage Nicole Kidman then emphasized of Kubrick: “But he had a strong sense of the story he was telling.” She shared: “I do remember him saying, ‘Triangles are hard. You have to tread carefully when it’s a triangle.’” Kidman then explained: “Because one person could feel ganged up on. But he was aware of that and knew how to manage us.” Actor Tom Cruise and his wife Nicole Kidman pose for photographers at the Sydney premiere of “Mission Impossible 2” May 30, 2000. (Photo Credit: Matt Turner/Liaison) “There’s something about being a woman in that equation, too,” Nicole Kidman said of her and Tom Cruise’s respective rapports with Kubrick. “And Stanley liked women.” She observed: “He had a different relationship with Tom. They worked more closely together on his character.” During past interviews, Nicole Kidman has remarked upon how she and Tom Cruise were happily married throughout filming — even though the film itself deals in topics such as power and infidelity. It is rare to hear Nicole Kidman discuss Tom Cruise Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise share 31-year-old Isabella and 29-year-old Connor. They adopted the two as children. Both Tom and Nicole went on to have children in subsequent relationships, though Tom and Suri do not appear to be close. It is very unusual for her to remark upon her publicly mention her ex-husband. Some believe that their divorce included an ironclad NDA. Other suspect that it is Kidman’s attachment to her adult children and fear of the Church of Scientology turning them against her that has her keep any critical thoughts to herself. For the record, she has not confirmed any of this. In fact, her past commentary on her infamous ex has been to describe loving him during their marriage. It may be that she’s just a very nice person who speaks positively of people.

  8. Ryan Reynolds has let the adorable cat out of the precious bag. Many months after the actor and his famous wife, Blake Lively, welcomed their fourth child, Reynolds took the stage with his co-stars and director Shawn Levy during the New York City premiere of his latest film, Deadpool & Wolverine. At one point, he praised Lively’s outfit. At another… he revealed the name of the couple’s latest family member! Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds attend the “Deadpool & Wolverine” New York Premiere on July 22, 2024 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) “I want to start by saying thank you to my wife Blake, who is here,” Reynolds told the audience, adding: “I want to thank my kids James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here: I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing — that is, the contents of this movie — that happens in your wondrous life. “I love that my entire family is here.” Yup, there it is: Olin.

(Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images) Back in May, Reynolds appeared on The Today Show and assured viewers that good friend Taylor Swift did NOT actually drop his baby’s name as part of her Tortured Poets Department album. “We always wait for Taylor to tell us what the child’s name is,” he joked at the time. “And I will say this, we’re still waiting.” Lively and Reynolds welcomed baby number-four on February 12, 2023. They have not revealed the sex of their youngest child. The totally awesome spouses are also parents to James, 9, Inez, 7, and Betty, 4.

(Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images) Reynolds and Lively got married in September 2012 and sincerely come across like the happiest couple in Hollywood. Yes, despite those divorce rumors. In response to Lively’s July 22 Instagram post praising Deadpool & Wolverine, one fan remarked: “You and Ryan need to post more of each other, there were rumors going around that you two got divorced and I didn’t believe it because you two are literally the perfect couple.” Lively, undeterred by such speculation, simply responded as follows: “haha they wish.” We really don’t. We hope these two last forever and keep having gorgeous children! Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively Baby Name: REVEALED! was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article
  9. 16 & Pregnant fans are mourning the death of Autumn Crittendon, the cause of which remains a mystery, despite information from the family. Autumn was confirmed dead by the Virginia Office of the Chief Medical Examiner confirmed on Monday, July 22, at only 27 years old. She is the second 16 & Pregnant star to pass away this year, with Sean Garinger passing away in February. Our hearts break for her family, including her young children. ’16 and Pregnant’ Season 5 mom Autumn Crittendon in her debut on the show. (MTV/ Youtube) Autumn Crittendon’s Cause of Death: Reality Star Passed at 27 Fans of 16 and Pregnant Season 5 mom Autumn Crittendon learned of her passing via TMZ. Her sister reportedly confirmed the news the night before with a long, heartfelt post on social media. However, that post has since been taken down. What sources shared with the outlet is that Autumn was found unresponsive in her bedroom by her stepfather. She was living with him and her mother, along with her three small children, Drake, Abigail, and Luke. When the paramedics arrived at their Virgina home, they attempted to render CPR. Their efforts were unsuccessful. Her cause of death remains under investigation, with no official statement from authorities. However, sources that spoke to TMZ attempted to fill in some blanks. Her early pregnancy days with her first child. (MTV/Youtube) Autumn’s Health & Her Ongoing Issues The site reports that they were told that Autumn had been sick and was complaining of heartburn recently. The condition was getting so bad, she was prepared to see a doctor. This new development comes after she was diagnosed with kidney issues and as well as being diabetic, says the source. Apparently, there was also some concern about her blood pressure. All of this adds up to the need for investigation, clearly. The Second Death of an MTV Star This Year 2024 has not been kind to Hollywood, with greats like Donald Sutherland, Bob Newhart, and Richard Lewis all passing away. But it’s been especially hard for fans of MTV reality shows, as Autumn’s passing marks the second 16 and Pregnant star to suddenly die this year. Sean Garinger, best known for appearing on 16 and Pregnant alongside his ex-girlfriend Selena Gutierrez, passed away following a horrific ATV accident in February. He was only 20 years old.

  10. Jennifer Lopez celebrated her 55th birthday party alone over the weekend. Okay, not “alone,” exactly. She was spotted dining in the Hamptons with her two kids, Max and Emme, her sister Lynda, and her longtime manager, Benny Medina. The dinner even had a theme! But interestingly, Jen was not joined by her husband, Ben Affleck.

Jen’s celebration was a multi-day affair, beginning with a Bridgerton-themed soiree on Saturday.

It was there that paparazzi were able to snap pics of Jen without her famous husband by her side. Ben’s whereabouts are currently unknown, but he was most recently spotted in LA.

But that’s no easy feat when you’re as famous as these two. At this point, all signs seem to indicate that the A-list couple is headed for a split.

(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images) But Ben and Jen have subverted our expectations in the past. On Father’s Day, for example, Jen quashed the divorce rumors by posting about what a great dad Ben is. And some insiders have insist that while Ben and Jen are “having issues,” they have no immediate plans to end their marriage.

Maybe he had some important work to attend to. But the more likely theory is that these two are about ready to call it quits.

  11. The midst of a shocking divorce, Deon Derrico is dealing with more horrible news: the death of a loved one. The Doubling Down With the Derricos star announced on July 20 that his nephew, who had guest starred on the show previously, had died just that week. The news is as heartbreaking as it was unexpected. Life can be hectic on Doubling Down with the Derricos, considering all the kids involved. (TLC) ‘Doubling Down With the Derricos’ Star Dead: Deon’s Nephew Passes Away On Saturday, July 20 the Doubling Down with the Derricos star revealed that his nephew, Amani, died following a long battle with autoimmune hepatitis. “My Family, friends, and fans….It is with great sadness that I #DEONDERRICO Announce the passing of my loving nephew Amani Barkley! Our family is devastated,” the reality TV star wrote in an Instagram post. He reminded longtime viewers of the show that Amani was the son of his “late brother Christopher S. Turner, and Stacey Dickey” In the fourth season of Doubling Down With the Derricos, the family met Amani for the first time after a DNA test confirmed that he was related to Deon and and his mother, GG. Over the course of the season, the family’s close bond and relationship grew and flourished. “You guys along with my family fell in love with him and in this short time we have built a bond with Amani, and merged our families forever!” The post included a photo of Deon holding Amani’s hand, seemingly sharing that he was with his nephew near the end. In the caption, he included information about making donations in lieu of flowers to the “Deon Derrico and Marian Derrico Foundation,” with the proceeds going towards families for liver transplant and cancer patients. Karen Derrico is pictured here on an episode of her family’s reality show. (TLC) Deon’s Ex Karen Pays Her Respects Despite the pair being in the middle of a divorce, Karen Derrico also took to social media to pay her respects. In fact, since June, she had been pushing for donations to a GoFundMe page in Amani’s honor. According to the crowdfunding site, Amani had been battling the autoimmune disease since he was 14 years old. As a result, he needed multiple liver transplants. Amani received a liver transplant on June 2, which the family believed to be successful. Unfortunately, his body rejected the organ and he underwent his third and final transplant on June 15. In her post on Instagram following his death, Karen Derrico shared a video filled with photos of Amani spending time with her 14 children with Deon. “#theDerricos #AmaniB #GonetooSoon Rest well Amani! Thank you for all your texts, calls, DM’s, prayers, donations, and support! This is extremely devastating to our family, and we love each and everyone for all that has been done!,” read the post.

No one answered. I ran back to him,” Hobbs continued. “By that time, I realized he wasn’t alive anymore.” Months later, his official cause of death was deemed blunt force injury to the head.

  13. Will Maya Rudolph once again portray Kamala Harris in an epic SNL return? The comedian’s Saturday Night Live spoofs of Harris date back to when she was Senator Harris. And the role earned her an Emmy Award. On Sunday, July 21, President Joe Biden endorsed VP Kamala Harris to succeed him as he bowed out of the 2024 election. Alongside everything else, people are saying that this could be a huge moment for Maya Rudolph. And they’re right. On Saturday Night Live, Maya Rudolph staged a return during a skit about the 2019 Democratic Primaries. (Image Credit: NBC) It’s time for Maya Rudolph to make her ‘SNL’ return Following President Biden’s announcement, Vice President Kamala Harris received ringing endorsements from celebrities, voters, fellow Democratic elected officials, and donors. Amidst the discourse — from ironic Harris memes to contrarian pouting to more serious conversations about this historic moment — one name keeps coming up: Maya Rudolph. This would be the perfect time for her to stage an SNL return to once again portray Kamala Harris. As the party nominee and then, one would hope, as President of the United States. Maya Rudolph’s portrayal of Kamala Harris began during the 2020 election cycle. Her 2019 debut in the role on Saturday Night Live was during the Democratic Presidential Primaries, and came twelve years after she left SNL. Rudolph won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for her portrayal of then-Senator Harris. SNL is famous for its political parodies and its (often frustratingly moderate) commentary during election cycles and political scandals. Even in that context, Rudolph’s role as Harris is an all-time favorite. Maya Rudolph on that next phone call with Lorne Michaels pic.twitter.com/p6mvDon4EJ — Dave Itzkoff (@ditzkoff) July 21, 2024 Everyone is talking about a Maya Rudolph comeback When it comes to something as serious as this Presidential election, people are eager to pivot to something a little lighter. Celebrating what this means for Maya Rudolph is much lower-stakes than the 2024 election. As you can see from the above tweet, people are anticipating more pay for Rudolph. Yes, SNL could cast someone else … but it would not go over well with viewers. Even more are looking forward to Rudolph raking in more Emmy Awards. Especially if Vice President Harris becomes President Harris, leading to a potential decade of skits starring Maya Rudolph. Obviously, the 2024 election is going to be contentious. There’s a lot at stake — from how the world views America to how many of us fear becoming political refugees if a second Trump presidency and Project 2025 become a living nightmare. Even within Democratic circles, there are real concerns about how much influence wealthy donors had over President Biden withdrawing from the race. That’s not on Harris, but it’s a topic of discussion. And, of course, there are concerns about Vice President Harris’ record from her days as a prosecutor, even if it varies from her stated positions on things like marijuana legalization and trans rights. Politics is a complex topic, and can tear good friends apart even if they agree on virtually everything. U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris attends a moderated conversation with former Trump administration national security official Olivia Troye and former Republican voter Amanda Stratton on July 17, 2024. (Photo Credit: Chris duMond/Getty Images) Maya Rudolph making an ‘SNL’ return as Kamala Harris could bring levity to this time Comedy is just a coping strategy. It doesn’t fix political tensions. No amount of very moderate political humor on SNL is going to fix the rot that grips so many in this country. White nationalism, state-mandated births, an out-of-control SCOTUS, genocide in Gaza, and more can’t be cured by laughter. That requires a coalition of Americans working to fix things. But there is no sense in wallowing in misery. Giving in to doom and despair, suffering because the world is a serious place? That doesn’t help anything. It also leads to burnout. Having some laughs while continuing the long road to fix our nation’s heart and soul is a good thing. And we don’t mind if Maya Rudolph wins some more awards along the way.

  14. On her eighteenth birthday, Shiloh Jolie filed to change her name. Like so many of her siblings, she is ridding herself of Brad Pitt’s surname. Rumors circulated that she’d “taken out an ad” to announce the change. That’s not exactly what happened. Additionally, through her attorney, Shiloh Jolie is explaining what led to her purging Brad Pitt from her name. Shiloh Jolie attends the Los Angeles premiere of MSNBC Films’ “Paper & Glue: A JR Project” at Museum Of Tolerance on November 18, 2021. (Photo Credit: JC Olivera/Getty Images) Yes, Shiloh Jolie filed for a name change Until she turned 18, the world knew Shiloh as “Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.” Some of her siblings had already begun going by the “Jolie” surname. Shiloh filed for a legal name change on her 18th birthday. While minors can have their names changed, one imagines that it was simpler if she didn’t have to secure parental permission. A rumor claimed that she had taken out an “advertisement” in the paper to declare her name change. As anyone familiar with the name-change process might be aware, this was a misrepresentation — and Shiloh’s attorney wants to clear the air. Brad Pitt, star of the upcoming Formula One based movie, F1, walks in the Paddock prior to practice ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Hungary at Hungaroring on July 19, 2024. (Photo Credit: Dean Mouhtaropoulos/Getty Images) Shiloh Jolie’s attorney, Peter Levine, spoke to Page Six about her name change and about the newspaper ad rumor. “Shiloh Jolie did not take out an ‘ad’ announcing any name change,” Levine clarified. “And,” he then emphasized, “any press reporting that is inaccurate.” Maddox Jolie, Vivienne Jolie, Angelina Jolie, Zahara Jolie, Shiloh Jolie, and Knox Jolie arrive at the Premiere of Marvel Studios’ Eternals on October 18, 2021. (Photo Credit: Jesse Grant/Getty Images for Disney) Why is Shiloh Jolie dropping Brad Pitt’s last name? There was a legal notice in the paper. Many places have laws requiring this as part of the name-change process. Most of the time it’s harmless, sometimes it’s dangerous, and in this case, it proved “sensational” in some eyes. “As Shiloh’s attorney, I am required to publish a legal notice,” Levine explained. “Because the law in California requires that of anyone who wants to change their name.” Shiloh’s attorney then detailed: “That legal notice was published in the Los Angeles Times, as is required.” Brad Pitt, star of the upcoming Formula One based movie, Apex, walks in the Pitlane prior to qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas at Las Vegas Strip Circuit on November 17, 2023. (Photo Credit: Rudy Carezzevoli/Getty Images) Levine then advised that various outlets “should be more careful in their reporting.” He expressed that this is true “especially when covering a young adult who has made an independent and significant decision following painful events, and is merely following legal process.” Specifically, Shiloh has filed to change her name from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shioh Nouvel Jolie. And yes, she made that filing on her 18th birthday.

Whitby/Getty Images) It seems that Brad Pitt has effectively lost his family For the better part of the past decade, it seems that Brad Pitt has alienated his children following a fateful flight during which he allegedly abused both then-wife Angelina and more than one of the children. In response, Angelina filed for divorce. Brad Pitt’s response has seemingly been to wage a legal war at great cost to him and to his ex-wife, seemingly out of spite. Shiloh’s name change (like that of her siblings) is merely a symbol of where things stand.

  15. Within moments of Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race, Kamala Harris became the front runner for the Democratic nomination. And most of Hollywood has her back! While we haven’t yet heard from the likes of George Clooney, who famously wrote a NYT op-ed begging Joe Biden to step aside, other huge names immediately took to social media to show they’re in Kamala’s corner. But not everyone. No, no. Apparently, one celebrity – a person Kamala actually DATED for a brief time – is NOT putting his backing behind the VP. Honestly, this election is turning into quick the drama!

(Photo by Jim WATSON / AFP) Who Has Endorsed Kamala Harris: Sharon Stone, Ellen Pompeo, and Katy Perry … Just to Name a Few The last two weeks of the 2024 Presidential campaign have been historic. Between Trump being shot at and Biden dropping off the ticket a month before the convention, things have never been in such disarray this close to election day. But for many, hope is on the horizon, as in his message to Americans about leaving the campaign, Joe announced his endorsement for his VP, Kamala Harris, to take his place. And with that, the stars of Hollywood came out in force to show they supported the idea of Kamala being the next president. Stars like Mandy Moore, Natasha Lyonne, Kathy Griffin, Bella Thorne, Christine Brinkley, and Octavia Spencer all took to their Instagram stories to cheer Kamala on. And the list of famous fans just grew from there – especially with the younger stars!

(Photo by Michael Buckner/Getty Images For J/P Haitian Relief Organization and Cinema For Peace) “Kamala Is Brat” Just hours after President Joe Biden withdrew from the campaign and endorsed Harris for the Democratic nod, Charli XCX posted on X “kamala IS brat.” The post got more than 10 million views, with about 200,000 likes. kamala IS brat — Charli (@charli_xcx) July 22, 2024 Now, if you’re under the age of 25, this probably means nothing to you. But for the GEN Z demo, this is no higher compliment this summer than being called “brat”. The term has spawned from Charli XCX’s “Brat” album that released on June 7. In a TikTok video, the singer explained what she means by “brat”: “You’re just like that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes. Who feels herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile. Like does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat” Well, it sounds like Kamala is all for this endorsement, regardless of the meaning; the Harris campaign quickly transformed the profile pic on the Kamala HQ X feed into the green background and letter style matching the singer’s “Brat” album cover.

(Photo by JIM WATSON / AFP) Celebrity Messages To Kamala: Win This Thing! “Let’s go!” celebrated Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo when show creator Shonda Rhimes posted her support for Kamala on Instagram. “I stood behind her in 2016 when she ran for Senate, I was behind her when she ran as @vp and I continue to stand behind her today,” Shonda wrote. “TRUSTED. TESTED. TOUGH,” posted Jamie Lee Curtis, pointing out that if a voter cared about rights for women, minorities, and the LGBTQ+ community, Kamala was the clear choice. Sharon Stone practically showered her feed with reposts of calls for Kamala to be supported, posting an endless carousel of images to her Insta stories in celebration. Speaking of reposting, Cardi B recirculated her vlog from earlier this year demanding that Kamala was the only choice to run in 2024. She celebrated her dream coming true with an “I told ya so” post on X. More stars joined in the chorus, including Katy Perry, John Legend, and Demi Lovato. But perhaps it was George Takei who summed up best what the nation has to look forward to in the next 4 months. “Prosecutor vs. felon,” he posted. A matchup of our lifetime.

He’s was on during the day when you were sick, delivering programming akin to Maury and Jerry Springer. Well, in the 2000s, long before she was VP, Montel dated Kamala for a hot second, a factoid that personalities like Tucker Carlson love to bring up time and again. Given their romantic history, one might think that Montel would be first in line to endorse Kamala for the top job. And you would be right, but not at first. You see, initially, Montel put forth Maryland’s governor, Wes Moore as the top pick for the job. He wrote, “I’d love to see Wes Moore leading the ticket or otherwise on my ballot and I’m ready to campaign. I’ve watched Wes Moore lead my home state of Maryland, and I know leadership when I see it.” Within hours/minutes/seconds, the media pounced on Montel, and his social media feed was flooded with comments of shock and awe. But Montel stood by his convictions. “Is anyone surprised I am interested in a politician who also went to the Naval Academy and whose leadership has impressed me?” he wrote. But then, his choice put his support behind Kamala, and in solidarity, Montel reposted the support. Reminding folks I RT’d this. pic.twitter.com/YQiMmTMt8S — Montel Williams (@Montel_Williams) July 22, 2024 Ah, politics.

  16. Kate Middleton is celebrating her eldest son, Prince George, on the occasion of his birthday. Yes, George turned 11 today, and Kate paid tribute by practicing her favorite art form, photography. The Kensington Palace social media accounts shared a black-and-white photo of the young prince for his big day.

(Photo by David Rogers/Getty Images) Kate Middleton Snaps Photo For Prince George’s Birthday “Wishing Prince George a very happy 11th birthday today!” the celebratory post was captioned. The photo was credited to “the Princess of Wales, 2024.” Obviously, today is all about George, and we’re sure Kate has no intention of drawing any attention toward herself. But these days, everything she does draws attention. As you’ve no doubt heard by now, Kate is battling cancer.

(Photo by Jonathan Brady – Pool/Getty Images) She’s spent most of this year away from the public eye as she receives treatment for her illness. But in recent weeks, the Princess of Wales has been much more visible. And her fans are hopeful that she’ll soon be back to full strength.

And earlier this month, Kate attended Wimbledon and presented trophies to the winners of the tournament. Insiders say these recent appearances have “energized” Kate. But even her most optimistic supporters concede that she still has a long way to go in her recovery.

(Photo by Yui Mok – WPA Pool/Getty Images) Those who know her best say that Kate’s number one priority in recent months has been maintaining a sense of normalcy for her three children. “Kate is still going to very much carry on like many many other mothers do, to keep as much of a normal life as possible,” a source recently told The New York Post. “With royal birthdays, especially with children and especially Catherine’s, they are very private occasions.” Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, Prince George of Cambridge, Princess Charlotte of Cambridge and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge during a visit to Cardiff Castle on June 04, 2022 in Cardiff, Wales. (Photo by Ashley Crowden – WPA Pool/Getty Images) How Will George’s Birthday Differ From Previous Years’ Celebrations? “It will be business as usual with potentially a party or other kids coming round.” That’s according to King Charles’ former butler Grant Harrold who spoke with the Post on the subject of George’s birthday. “There will be something that happens. It won’t be a case of him sitting behind closed doors and not doing anything, there will be some sort of a celebration,” Harrold continued. Harrold added that this year’s celebration will be more subdued than previous birthday parties.

(Photo by Chris Jackson/Getty Images) “Of course it’s going to be very different from last year. But they will go out of their way, I’m sure, to make George’s birthday as normal as possible this year,” he said. “They wouldn’t want to make George think this year is any different. Yes it will be different, for obvious reasons, but the parents will want him to have a normal birthday.” We’re sure it hasn’t been easy for the Windsor family to maintain the status quo. The kids are also dealing with the fact that their grandfather, King Charles, is battling cancer. With any luck, Kate and Charles will soon be able to announce that they’re both in remission.

George is probably just getting to an age where he can understand the power of his mother’s love and sacrifice.

  17. Very sad news over the weekend out of the entertainment industry: Esta TerBlanche, a veteran actress best known for having played Gillian Andrassy on the popular soap opera All My Children has passed away. She was 51 years old. Esta TerBlanche as a bride on All My Children. (ABC/Courtesy Everett Collection) According to the star’s goddaughter, who spoke to TMZ, TerBlance “died unexpectedly” on Thursday in her North Hollywood residence. Authorities believe she had been gone for about a day by the time medical personnel discovered her body. The cause of her death is under investigation rep Lisa Rodrigo told this celebrity gossip website, emphasizing there is no other information available at this time. TerBlanche rose to fame after she won Miss Teen South Africa in 1991. Esta TerBlanche was best known for her role on the series All My Children. (Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images) The late actress landed first acting role as Bienkie Naudé Hartman on South Africa’s first soap opera, “Egoli: Place of Gold,” from 1992 to 1995. Two years later, she was cast as Andrassy on All My Children. The character was a troublesome Hungarian princess who was married to Ryan Lavery (Cameron Mathison). She was killed off in 2001 (after getting shot by an assassin in a case of mistaken identity), although TerBlanche returned as Gillian’s ghost for one episode in 2011. “When I came back, it was really emotional for me and Cameron. When we saw each other, we both started bawling,” TerBlanche told Soap Opera Digest years ago. “Back then, we hadn’t seen each other for years, so it was such a touching moment for us.” Esta TerBlanche poses here for an ABC promotional photo. (Robert Milazzo/ABC/Courtesy Everett Collection) After the murder of her character on All My Children, TerBlanche returned to South Africa… where she opened a spa and worked on documentaries with filmmaker Michael Kastenbaum. At the time of TerBlanche’s passing, she had been splitting her time between South Africa and California. Annie Spolianky, the star’s manager, also confirmed this sad news to Variety and said that TerBlanche was a “wonderful, kind and loving person.” Mathison, meanwhile, paid tribute to TerBlanche on Sunday in a series of Instagram Stories. The first read, “RIP my sweet princess” atop a photo of the pair on set. In another Story, he added, “Esta helped me last year when [my dog] Red was sick and paralyzed and I was struggling. One of the sweetest people ever.” We send our condolences to the friends, family members and loved ones of Esta TerBlanche. May she rest in peace.

  18. Fans have two questions about Owning Manhattan Season 2. Is it happening? When is it coming out? Netflix has struck gold more than once in the realm of high-end real estate reality television. Owning Manhattan was no exception! Ryan Serhant visits the SiriusXM Studios on July 17, 2024. (Photo Credit: Cindy Ord/Getty Images) Netflix rolled out another hit Owning Manhattan follows Ryan Serhant and his real estate agents at SERHANT. Serhant (the person) of course starred for years on Million Dollar Listing New York. Clearly a kindred spirit to Selling Sunset, this series follows luxury real estate properties in a place with more skyscrapers and much better weather: Manhattan. Thus far, the show’s only critics seem to be folks who either don’t like reality TV or specifically don’t like real estate agents on reality TV. That’s fair. But the show obviously has a hefty audience of fans, so not everyone agrees. Owning Manhattan debuted its entire first season on June 28, 2024. Of course, these days, an “entire season” tends to be agonizingly short. Americans used to make fun of Brits for miniseries-length seasons, but now we’re all living in that reality. The truth of the matter is that 8 episodes is simply not enough for most shows. Especially not for Owning Manhattan‘s eager fanbase, who are already itching for more just weeks after Season 1 dropped. Will ‘Owning Manhattan’ Get a Season 2? Season 1 had plenty of hallmarks of a solid first season of reality television. Obviously, the initial draw — before viewers get to know the people involved — is the high-end apartments. But how many first seasons feature a dramatic firing? (We suspect that a second season of Owning Manhattan will not include Jonathan) Viewers responded to the drama. During its first week, Netflix audiences streamed over 512 million minutes of the show, Variety reports. Members of the cast have spoken excitedly about a second season. “We have filmed some things that we weren’t able to continue with by the time shooting ended,” Serhant recently told House Beautiful. “[They] didn’t make sense for season one. I think [they] are primed for season two and are intense, to say the least.” Are those hints at a second season renewal? Or is he merely projecting confidence and hoping for Season 2? We don’t know — because, thus far, Netflix hasn’t said a word. Ryan Serhant attends Bilt Rewards’ 2023 Winter Holiday House Party at Maxwell Social on December 12, 2023. (Photo Credit: Craig Barritt/Getty Images for Bilt Rewards) When will ‘Owning Manhattan’ Season 2 come out? If Netflix were to immediately renew Owning Manhattan for a second season and start filming right away, Season 2 would still be months away. It may come as a shock to some reality TV viewers, but on average, these episodes air about 8 months after filming. And there are things to consider, from cast salary to shakeups to episode order and more, before anyone can iron out a renewal. That said, Ryan Serhant has received dozens of new applications following Season 1 from people who hope to work for his agency. So there’s no chance of running out of hopeful reality TV stars. That said … Netflix has made a lot of very poor cancelation choices in recent years. The streaming giant could miss the mark on this, too. Fingers crossed, though! ‘Owning Manhattan’ Season 2: Is It Happening? was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article
  19. Well, then. On Sunday afternoon, President Joe Biden announced that he will not seek a second term in the Oval Office, releasing a statement that confirmed he is: First, dropping out the general election. Second, endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for the job he’s held over the last three-plus years.

(Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images) “Over the past three and a half years, we have made great progress as a Nation. Today, America has the strongest economy in the world,” Biden wrote on Twitter. “We’ve made historic investments in rebuilding our Nation, in lowering prescription drug costs for seniors, and in expanding affordable health care to a record number of Americans. “We’ve provided critically needed care to a million veterans exposed to toxic substances. Passed the first gun safety law in 30 years. “Appointed the first African American woman to the Supreme Court. And passed the most significant climate legislation in the history of the world.” (Twitter) Prior to dropping his political bombshell, Biden continued: “America has never been better positioned to lead than we are today. “I know none of this could have been done without you, the American people. Together, we overcame a once in a century pandemic and the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. “We’ve protected and preserved our Democracy, And we’ve revitalized and strengthened our alliances around the world.” My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best… pic.twitter.com/x8DnvuImJV — Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) July 21, 2024 The President had been under tremendous pressure to reconsider his future after an abysmal debate against Donald Trump last month… one in which he often seemed confused on stage and one in which he quite often lost his train of thought. Following a number of other public appearance that called into question his mental capabilities, higher-ups in the Democratic Party began to call for Biden to drop out of the Presidential race. He has now done so. “It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President,” Joe Biden wrote. “And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.” Joe Biden delivers remarks on the assassination attempt on Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump at the White House on July 14, 2024 in Washington, DC.

Biden was joined by Vice President Kamala Harris. (Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images) Biden then said he will “speak to the Nation later this week in more detail about my decision,” noting , “For now, let me express my deepest gratitude to all those who have worked so hard to see me reelected. “I want to thank Vice President Kamala Harris for being an extraordinary partner in all this work. And let me express my heartfelt appreciation to the American people for the faith and trust you have placed in me,” he concluded. “I believe today what I always have: that there is nothing America can’t do – when we do it together. We just have to remember we are the United States of America.” Joe Biden delivers remarks at a meeting of the heads of state of the North Atlantic Council at the 2024 NATO Summit on July 10, 2024 in Washington, DC. (Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images) A short time after this post rocked the free world, Biden all but assured that Harris would be named the Democratic nominee at the party’s convention in mid-August. “My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President,” he said. “And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee for our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. “Let’s do this.” Joe Biden is out. Kamala Harris is in. And Donald Trump is scared. (Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images) Trump has thus far taken shots at Biden on social media, but his Vice Presidential partner, J.D. Vance, just said the following: Joe Biden has been the worst President in my lifetime and Kamala Harris has been right there with him every step of the way. Over the last four years she co-signed Biden’s open border and green scam policies that drove up the cost of housing and groceries. She owns all of these failures, and she lied for nearly four years about Biden’s mental capacity–saddling the nation with a president who can’t do the job. President Trump and I are ready to save America, whoever’s at the top of the Democrat ticket. Bring it on. For the first time in a very long time, Democrats now share that same sentiment. It is SO very much on. Joe Biden: I’m Done, Folks! VOTE FOR KAMALA! was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article
  20. Ryan Reynolds’ history of marriage and divorce goes back further than people think. For years, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have been one of the hottest celebrity couples on the planet. But so many of Reynolds’ fans aren’t fully aware of his immensely famous exes. He’s been a piece of arm candy — and arguably a trophy husband — before. Including to another member of the MCU. Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds attend the “Deadpool” fan event at AMC Empire Theatre on February 8, 2016. (Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) Ryan Reynolds Almost Married Alanis Morissette In 2002, Ryan Reynolds — at the time a heartthrob in his mid-twenties — was dating Alanis Morissette. She was one of the most famous singers of the past decade. And, at the time, Reynolds had appeared in various Canadian shows, with his biggest claims to fame being guest spots on The Outer Limits and X-Files. In June of 2004, the couple announced their engagement. There would not, however, be any rain (or other weather) on their wedding day. Ryan Reynolds and Alanis Morissette pose backstage at The 2003 MTV Movie Awards held at the Shrine Auditorium on May 31, 2003. (Photo Credit: Kevin Winter/Getty Images) About two and a half years later, in February of 2007, Morissette and Reynolds announced their breakup. Through their representatives, they explained that ending the engagement had been a mutual decision. It was not a divorce, but we’re sure that the emotional toll was similar. In fact, Alanis Morisette’s album, Flavors of Entanglement, emerged from her grief over the split. “Torch” is, specifically, about Ryan Reynolds. Ryan Reynolds’s Divorce With Scarlett Johansson It was not long after the 2007 split that Ryan Reynolds found himself dating actress Scarlett Johansson. This was 2007, and she was already legitimately famous. By May of 2008, the two announced their engagement. They married in a private ceremony in Canada on September 27 of that same year. However, on December 14 of 2010, Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johanssen announced their separation. Just over a week later, Reynolds filed for divorce, with Johanssen filing simultaneously. The two finalized thier divorce on July 1 of 2011. Scarlett Johansson attends the “Fly Me To The Moon” photocall in Madrid at Matadero on July 11, 2024. (Photo Credit: Patricia J. Garcinuno/Getty Images) Ryan Reynolds met Blake Lively in 2010 In early 2010, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively met while filming Green Lantern. Ryan played as the titular Lantern (Hal Jordan), where Lively played Carol Ferris. Carol is Hal’s love interest … though, had the film been good enough to warrant sequels, viewers might have seen her become the antagonist, Star Sapphire. Alas, it was not to be. We didn’t even get a Sinestro movie. However, that film did something else: it (ultimately) brought together one of the entertainment industry’s hottest, most iconic (and did we mention hottest) couples. Prior to Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds had terrible luck with superhero films. Both Reynolds and Lively were in other relationships (at first) It is important to emphasize that, according to the couple, this was not a steamy movie set affair. In fact, Reynolds was still married to Johanssen at the time. And Lively was still dating Penn Badgley, her Gossip Girl co-star. Blake Lively and Penn Badgley split by October of that year. And, as we already mentioned, Reynolds and Johanssen were done a couple of months later. A year after Green Lantern, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively were on a double date with other people. It was awkward for their respective dates … because the sparks were flying between the two “buddies.” Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds attend the “Charles James: Beyond Fashion” Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2014. (Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) They’re one seriously hot couple In October of 2011, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively began dating. They married on September 9, 2012. Unfortunately, that wedding is infamous — because it took place at Boone Hall Plantation in South Carolina. The two have since apologized for marrying on the site of human rights atrocities, and even renewed their vows. (Everyone makes mistakes, we suppose, but they make an effort to be good, which is more than we can say about a lot of people) Now, Reynolds and Lively share four children, welcoming them in 2014, 2016, 2019, and their youngest in February 2023. Ryan Reynolds attends the 2023 Bring Change To Mind Gala at City Winery on October 09, 2023. (Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) With no sign of a Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds divorce on the horizon, fans of the power couple can likely rest easy. And, of course, keep up with the couple’s antics on Instagram and beyond. They love to crack jokes and they’re clearly head over heels for each other. Plenty of people have all but forgotten (or never knew in the first place) about this couple’s prior relationships. Looking at them, you’d think that they’d been together forever.

  21. As has been very well-documented at this point, Abby Lee Miller is out. The controversial Dance Moms coach no longer has anything to do with this reality franchise. But Hulu is bringing the series back with a reboot (titled “A New Era”) on August 7… and the first trailer, released this week by People Magazine, makes it clear that Miller may be gone. Yet the drama remains. This is a screen shot from the Dance Moms: A New Era trailer. (Hulu) “My one and only goal is to win a national title and it starts today,” Flo Hampton tells the girls in the preview. “Nobody’s spot here is promised. Nobody.” Coach Glo previously appeared in a season 3 episode of the original reality series alongside her daughter, Kaeli. Her studio also defeated Miller’s junior elite competition team in a season 4 episode; and now she’s back in the spotlight. “In six short weeks, we’re going to Nationals,” Glo also tells her dance students in July 18 teaser of the Hulu series. “We are in no way ready for that.” A new era of Dance Moms is coming to Hulu. (Hulu) In the past, Miller choreographed weekly routines for dancers such as Maddie Ziegler, Kenzie Ziegler, Nia Sioux, Chloé Lukasiak, Kendall Vertes, Paige Hyland, Brooke Hyland, Kalani Hilliker and Jojo Siwa on the original series… which ran for eight seasons and wrapped up in 2019. This new era will feature a new cast. “I’ve spent 40 years teaching children to dance and that has prepared me for this moment,” Coach Glo also explains in the aforementioned video, adding: “I’m so excited to take on this next challenge competing new routines every week in hopes of winning another national title.” Coach Glo is all business on the reboot of Dance Moms. (Hulu) As it so often has gone on this series, meanwhile, there’s intense competition between the dancers. However, the real theatrics come courtesy of the new dance moms themselves, as we see them pushing, shoving and we even witness an especially vengeful slap in the face as one mom screans, “I dare you to come at me.” But Glo is having none of this, folks. “I’m over it. Do you see these children? This is all I care about right now,” she tells the misbehaving parents. All 10 episodes of Dance Moms: A New Era premiere on Wednesday, August 7 only on Hulu.

  22. Janelle Brown with boyfriend? Is this really happening?! That’s the question every fan has been asking ever since she announced her split from Kody in the Season 17 tell-all episode of Sister Wives. However, given the tragic year she’s had with the loss of her son, Garrison, many aren’t sure if now is the right time for her to be romantically linked.

So, is Janelle hiding a secret boyfriend?! Janelle Brown’s Boyfriend: Is She Hiding A Secret Romance? For years, fans watched on as Janelle dealt with Kody’s controlling nature. That’s why, after the veteran reality star walked away from her spiritual spouse at the end of 2022, the world relished in watching her fly free. She has since regained her independence, and has flaunted her good times on social media. In 2023, followers watched on as she made the brave decision to set up her RV all on her own. But was Janelle really on her own? Janelle Brown is all smiles starting the next chapter of her life. (Photo by Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images)) Eagle-eyed fans noticed that there was a pair of legs hiding just out of sight behind the RV in the photo she posted. A pair of MAN’s legs! “Janelle is that the new boyfriend hiding?” one fan asked after the 54-year old shared a photo of the aforementioned vehicle on Wednesday, May 17. Sadly, there was no beau in the shadows. “Haha no its Gabe,” Brown replied, referring to her eldest son. But then, as if to dissage any feelings that her life isn’t full, she added with emphasis: “But my children and grandchildren are the true loves of my life.” Janelle shares children six children with ex Kody Brown: Gabe, Hunter, Logan, Savanah, Madison, and Garrison, who sadly is no longer with us. It makes her words all the more heartbreaking, knowing that one of the loves of her life is no longer in her life. But despite not having a new man and the tragedy, Janelle is moving on in other ways. Namely, she’s moving out of the RV life and into a new home in North Carolina. Fresh beginnings.

Janelle split from the selfish polygamous patriarch in December 2022, but a source told In Touch in January 2023 that “she is not thinking about or wanting to date anyone at the moment.” The insider went on to say that the mother of six is “focusing on herself and her kids” after ending her marriage with Kody. In the meantime, Janelle remains good pals with Christine Brown, who is in a very different romantic boat these days – and she’s taken Janelle along for the ride! Christine Brown is the first of Kody’s exes to get married! The Sister Wives star wed David Woolley in October 2023 after announcing their engagement in April of that same year. (TLC) “David popped the question VERY romantically, and I said YES! I’m so excited and just live in bliss every day!” wrote the Sister Wives star on Instagram. Before the two got serious, Christine made it clear to David that she came with a lot, let’s call it baggage. “I’m like, ‘I have a lot of kids and I have a sister wife, and everywhere I go, Janelle has to come with me and all of her children come with me too. There’s not just me,’” Christine recalls of their romance when things got serious. “And he’s like, ‘Okay. Okay.’” Yes, where Christine goes, Janelle will follow. She was the only former sister wife included in the wedding. Hell, she was the only one INVITED to the wedding! But whether she’ll stay a 3rd wheel in Christine’s marriage for the foreseeable future? Only time will tell. Janelle’s Future: When Will She Start Looking For Love? “Getting used to her new life hasn’t been hard since Kody was hardly around for the last few years,” the above tabloid source continued awhile ago, adding Janelle “is not focusing on anger or resentment toward Kody.” That’s probably a healthy attitude. But the guy probably deserves at least a little anger or resentment. Probably both!

  23. What does Hugh Jackman want in a new wife? The beloved actor is reprising his most iconic role as one of the titular stars of Deadpool & Wolverine, marking his entry into the MCU. However, this comes on the heels of his major breakup. After nearly 30 years together, Jackman and his wife separated less than one year ago. Hugh Jackman has wielded his wealth and fortune as a philanthropist. And when he takes a new wife, he’d reportedly like someone who shares his dream of making the world a better place.

In September of 2023, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness announced their separation. The two married in April of 1996. According to what an inside source tells Closer about Hugh Jackman, the internationally beloved actor wants a new wife who can hold her own in the spotlight — or even overshadow him. “The No. 1 problem Hugh and Deb had during their decades together is that Hugh’s career and his ambitions always became the center of their life together,” the insider reported. “Even when they were doing everything in their power to keep that from being the case.” Hugh Jackman attends the “Deadpool & Wolverine” Fan Event at Uber Arena on July 07, 2024. (Photo Credit: Sebastian Reuter/Getty Images) According to the source, Hugh Jackman’s worldwide fame “just became unavoidable” for him and for his wife. The insider explained that this was “because of the success Hugh kept having.” Added the source: “And in the incredible effort and work ethic he would bring into anything he took on.” Who is the blueprint for a future marriage? Some actors manage to achieve significant stardom while still remaining a footnote in their spouse’s career. One example that comes to mind is George Clooney and his wife, international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney. “He needs an Amal Clooney type, and he knows it,” the inside source described. The insider detailed: “Somebody who doesn’t eat, drink, and breathe showbusiness 24/7 and who actually thinks about the bigger picture the way Hugh does.” That’s quite a wishlist.

(Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) “Hugh personally is not a careerist,” the source characterized. “He’d be fine if all the stardom went away tomorrow,” the insider claimed. “And he really wants to find somebody who can help him make the world a better place.” The source then continued: “And put the good will he’s earned after 25 years in Hollywood to work for something more than his personal stardom.” Hugh Jackman attends the photocall for “Deadpool & Wolverine” at the IET Building, Savoy Place on July 12, 2024. (Photo Credit: Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images) Is Hugh Jackman ready to move on? In recent months, the global treasure has been working hard to promote Deadpool & Wolverine ahead of its July 26 release. According to the inside source, however, “the hunt is finally on for somebody new.” The source detailed: “Hugh is committed to branching outside of his entertainment industry bubble to find somebody he can spend the rest of his life with and who can help him put his massive fortune to good use around the world.” Hugh Jackman attends a press conference for “Deadpool & Wolverine” on July 04, 2024. (Photo Credit: Chung Sung-Jun/Getty Images) If Hugh Jackman finds a new wife, it could potentially change his public perception. His lengthy marriage to a non-famous person was arguably part of his brand as an actor. That doesn’t mean that he shouldn’t move on. It also doesn’t mean that he won’t end up falling head over heels for a costar or neighbor or friend-of-a-friend. People surprise themselves all of the time. If these reported Hugh Jackman new wife goals are true, we’ll be interested who ends up by his side.

  24. Is Kate Hudson pregnant? If she isn’t already, she reportedly wants to be! Historically, Kate Hudson’s takes on childbirth haven’t always impressed fans. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t feel excited at the prospect of a new baby. Apparently, so does she. In the wake of pregnancy rumors over a possible baby bump, reports say that Kate wants a baby with her fiance. Kate Hudson attends the 95th Annual Academy Awards on March 12, 2023. (Photo Credit: Mike Coppola/Getty Images) The Kate Hudson Pregnancy Rumors: How It All Started To backtrack, rumors began to circulate back in March 2024 that Kate Hudson was pregnant. Or, rather, that she might be pregnant. On March 14, she performed “Talk About Love” at the GLAAD Media Awards. It may have simply been a trick of the light (and her dress), but from certain angles, some felt that they’d spied a baby bump. Her Georges Hobeika dress had a lot of conspicuous ruffles. Perfect for concealing a slightly pregnant belly … or, perhaps, just creating the illusion of one. So, for bette or worse, that’s how the conversation got started. Kate never addressed the rumors at the time – nor is she required to answer to anyone’s questions about her life journey – but that didn’t stop the rumor mill from churning. Kate Hudson performs onstage during the 35th GLAAD Media Awards – Los Angeles at The Beverly Hilton on March 14, 2024. (Photo Credit: Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images for GLAAD) Kate’s Family Now: How Many Kids Does She Have Already? Hudson is already the mother of 20-year-old son Ryder, whom she shares with ex-husband Chris Robinson, as well as 12-year-old son Bingham with ex-fiance, Matt Bellamy. Like Kate, her fiance, Danny Fujikawa, is also a musician and the pair welcomed a 6-year-old Rani together. Rani is her only daughter and the spitting image of Kate and her mom Goldie Hawn. While Kate’s dream of having a daughter was well documented in interviews she gave, she’s also admitted that she doesn’t know if she’s done having kids. And that’s how things got rolling again in 2024. Singer Kate Hudson performs onstage during the album release concert for her debut album ‘Glorious’ at The Bellwether on May 18, 2024. (Photo Credit: Scott Dudelson/Getty Images) Kate Hudson’s Pregnancy Journey: ‘She Loves Being a Mom!’ To be clear: we don’t technically know if Kate Hudson is pregnant at right this moment. However, given that sightings of Kate and her fiance from four months after the GLAAD Media Awards don’t show a baby bump (that’s in mid-July, for the mathematically challenged), she likely was not pregnant at the time. Sometimes, a ruffled dress is just a ruffled dress, and isn’t concealing a pregnant belly. Still, even if Kate Hudson wasn’t pregnant in March or in July, there could still be another baby on the way. According to a spring report by Life & Style, Hudson and Fujikawa expecting another child would not be a surprise to those closest to her. “Kate loves being a mom,” an inside source dished. “She’s been wanting one more with Danny, and now some think she’s already pregnant with baby No. 4!” Kate Hudson visits SiriusXM’s ‘The Howard Stern Show’ at SiriusXM Studios on May 07, 2024. (Photo Credit: Noam Galai/Getty Images for SiriusXM) Marriage Before Baby Carriage? “The boys seem to be growing up so fast,” the insider remarked, asserting that she almost feels like an empty nester with her eldest away at college. “Kate would be excited to add another little girl to the mix — and Rani is on the same page. She wants a sister!” However, the source warned that she doesn’t want overlap with other plans, noting that “Kate definitely doesn’t want to be a pregnant bride.” That’s fair. The insider then affirmed: “Kate has such special bonds with each of her three kids. She adores them and loves their individual personalities and watching them grow and develop. So, Kate can’t wait to experience the same magic and joy all over again with another child.” Kate Hudson Pregnant With Baby #4? Her Dream Of Having More Kids, Revealed was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article
  25. Could Miley Cyrus wind up taking Katy Perry’s place on American Idol? Yes, as you’ve likely heard by now, Katy is ending her time on Idol, and the hunt for a suitable replacement has kicked into high gear. According to a new report from Life & Style, Miley is producers’ “first choice” for the job. But there’s a problem. Miley Cyrus attends the 66th GRAMMY Awards at Crypto.com Arena on February 04, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for The Recording Academy) Will Miley Cyrus Be Able to Reach a Deal With American Idol Producers? Apparently, Katy received a massive salary for her work on the show. And with ratings on a slight decline, Idol producers were hoping to shell out slightly less money for their next judge. But Miley won’t come cheap, and it’s possible that her salary demands will prevent this deal from happening. “The big issue hanging over Katy’s mostly successful run on Idol has been the enormous paycheck she managed to negotiate from the start of her judging term that only increased incrementally in the years since,” a source tells Life & Style. Katy Perry attends the 35th Annual Colleagues Spring Luncheon & Oscar de la Renta Fashion Show at Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel on April 25, 2024 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by Monica Schipper/Getty Images) “With Katy finally getting back to making music full-time, Disney and ABC are looking to replace her with just as famous a name at a somewhat discounted price.” Miley isn’t too thrilled about being the discount option. But the source says she’s very much interested in joining Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie at the judges’ table next season. Miley Cyrus performs onstage during the 66th GRAMMY Awards at Crypto.com Arena on February 04, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images) Can American Idol Afford Miley? “Miley really does love the competition space,” the insider says. “She has a lot more fun judging and mentoring than she has in her various forays into acting as an adult. And she also knows her fans actually show up to watch her on these shows.” Yes, Miley fans will check out any show that she’s a part of. And that loyalty could serve as a powerful bargaining chip in her upcoming negotiations. “That’s really her secret weapon in extracting a big fee from Disney and ABC,” the insider says.

(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images for The Recording Academy) “Miley’s been in this situation before and she knows how to make it work in her favor,” the source continues. “The only thing that’s keeping the two sides apart at the moment is Miley’s fee, but she is absolutely the first choice to replace Katy in this franchise.” Who Are the Other Candidates For the Job?

(Photo by VALERIE MACON/AFP via Getty Images) Of course, Idol producers are not without options. As we’ve previously discussed, many fans of the show think that Adele should replace Katy. And of course, there’s a sizable contingent that believes Katy’s former rival Taylor Swift should be the next Idol judge. But both of those options would probably be even more expensive. And while Adele and Taylor both have pipes, few modern entertainers can top Miley when it comes to personality and camera presence.
