Katy Perry knows a thing or two about divorce. It’s painful, heartbreaking, and extra no fun when the world watches on as you navigate the reality of decoupling. So, how do things stand with Orlando Bloom these days? The pair seem happy, yet there are murmurs that things could be heading to a breaking point. Russell Brand and Katy Perry attend the European Premiere of Arthur at Cineworld 02 on April 19, 2011 in London, England. ((Photo by Chris Jackson/Getty Images)) Katy Perry Divorced First Husband Before Orlando Once upon a time, Katy wasn’t married to a pirate, but to a comedian. After a brief courtship, Russell Brand proposed to Katy on New Year’s Eve during a trip to Jaipur, India. A few months later, on October 23, 2010, they returned to the country to wed. From the outside, it looks like they were perfectly matched. However, the marriage wasn’t meant to last The divorce of Katy Perry and Russell Brand was reportedly months in the making, despite only lasting 14 months to begin with. Reports from the time claimed Katy and Russell knew the relationship was on the rocks soon after getting hitched. However, they didn’t want to bail on the marriage without a concerted effort to work it out. Then the love ran out, and more than that, the world actually watched the official moment of their marriage ending on-screen. Golden couple Katy Perry and Russell Brand arrive at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards at Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE on August 28, 2011 in Los Angeles, California. ((Photo by Christopher Polk/Getty Images)) Katy Perry’s Divorce Started With A Text “He’s a very smart man, and I was in love with him when I married him. Let’s just say I haven’t heard from him since he texted me saying he was divorcing me,” Katy confessed to Vogue in 2013. That was two years after the divorce was finalized. Fans have long believed that this moment was actually documented in Katy’s concert documentary Part of Me. One unforgettable scene from the film showed the Katy breaking down in tears after a text from her then husband, before picking herself up, dusting herself off, and going on stage to perform to a packed venue. Despite the text and the fact that Russell was the one to file for the divorce, in that same interview, Katy admitted she initially felt responsible for the marriage not working out. “I felt a lot of responsibility for it ending, but then I found out the real truth, which I can’t necessarily disclose because I keep it locked in my safe for a rainy day. I let go and I was like: This isn’t because of me; this is beyond me. So I have moved on from that.” And move on she did!

(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images) Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s Marriage: When Will They Tie The Knot? For years, Katy had high-profile relationships with the hottest music acts of the day: John Mayer, Diplo, even Robert Pattinson. (Yes, Edward sings!) But when she finally met Orlando Bloom in January 2016, a new chapter of her life began. Orlando, who is also divorced, fell for her quickly. After a brief breakup in 2017, the two have been together ever since, even welcoming a daughter together. While the pair are engaged, they have yet to get married. However, wedding plans are in the works, so the insiders say, and 2024 is looking good to be the year these two get hitched. Ergo, without being married, they can’t technically get divorced. So, nothing to really worry about there. But with Katy leaving American Idol and plans for baby #2 in the works, the time does feel like now for these two. Finally!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are unafraid to display affection for each other in public. Latest case in point? The stars were all over each other at Coachella. We’ve now learned, however, that Swift and Kelce have been enjoying some private time as well… but not always by themselves. Travis Kelce celebrates with Taylor Swift after defeating the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game on January 28, 2024 in Baltimore, Maryland. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) During an April 24 stop at QVC’s Age of Possibility summit in Las Vegas, Donna Kelce confirmed that her famous son and his even more famous girlfriend just recently went on a trip to the town of Carmel-by-the-Sea in California — with Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid! Donna confirmed this trip by saying Travis sent her a photo from the picturesque vacation area. The elder Kelce shared the anecdote because Bradley was also at the QVC summit. The pair even crossed paths at Bradley’s Danny and Coops Philly Cheesesteak food truck … where Donna told the actor: “Trav told me you were going to be here.” A lovely video of the exchange has been making the rounds on Twitter and TikTok. Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are just so darn cute together. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) Swift, of course, has been close with Hadid for many years. The 29-year-old model, who went out with Swift last month, said she was “over the moon” for her pal’s romance with Kelce in November. As for Travis and Swift, they have traveled together a lot of late, in between the latter’s Eras Tour stops. “They vacationed in the Bahamas for several days,” a source told People Magazine this spring. “It was a much-needed break for both of them. They very much enjoyed it. They are so happy together.” Taylor Swift attends ‘In Conversation With… Taylor Swift’ during the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival at TIFF Bell Lightbox on September 9, 2022 in Toronto, Ontario. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images) Looking ahead, Swift and Kelce will not be at the upcoming MET Gala. We’d have to imagine they want a bit of time to themselves over the next few weeks because Swift is set to perform in Paris on May 9. She will then remain overseas as part of her record-setting tour until August, and then the NFL season will begin shortly after that. That’s what happens when both halves of a couple are very successful in their respective fields. “I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” Swift perviously said of the pair’s public support for each other. “The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. “And we’re just proud of each other.” Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: Inside Their Private Trip With Bradley Cooper and Gigi … was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

Shannen Doherty and Tori Spelling go way back. Given that Shannen Doherty’s cancer has metastasized to her bones and to her brain, her threshold for what “depresses” her should be fairly high. But Tori Spelling’s relationship blunders are apparently enough to bewilder and sadden her. For years, Shannen has been urging Tori to take her relationship advice to heart. Tori Spelling attends the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards at Dolby Theatre on April 01, 2024. (Photo Credit: Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) Shannen Doherty is offering Tori Spelling some tough love On the Thursday, April 25 episode of Tori Spelling’s misSPELLING podcast, Shannen Doherty appeared as her guest (this was actually her second consecutive guest spot). Both women discussed their current statuses, as both are (fairly) newly single. Navigating the dating scene after a lengthy hiatus is not easy. “It’s all so fresh I’m not sure what I even want,” Tori acknowledged. With her date of separation from Dean McDermott being June 17 of 2023, her last time dating was in the era of AIM, flip phones, and color-coded terror alert levels. Shannen Doherty poses for a portrait in the Getty Images & People Magazine Portrait Studio at Hallmark Channel and American Humanes 2019 Hero Dog Awards at the Beverly Hilton on October 05, 2019. (Photo Credit: Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for Hallmark Channel) In Tori’s mind, fame — with or without financial or professional success — can end up being “emasculating” to men. Tori seemed to hold the attitude that she should shy away from this, but Shannen disagreed. “That’s what I want. I want a man who’s proud to be with me and he wouldn’t cheat, wouldn’t lie, because he’s so scared of losing me,” Shannen expressed. “But also a man that’s really proud of my success and what I’ve accomplished.” Shannen then advised her friend: “And that’s what I really want you to be looking for right now. Not a man that you can dominate. Not a man that puts you down. Not a man that has red flags.” Tori Spelling attends the premiere of Freeform’s “Cruel Summer” Season 2 at Grace E. Simons Lodge on May 31, 2023. (Photo Credit: David Livingston/Getty Images) To Tori, Shannen was wishing for the impossible Tori told Shannen that she “disagreed” with Shannen’s relationship goals — because she doesn’t believe that a man could be secure enough to celebrate her fame without resenting it. Not even if he were successful on his own. “That’s depressing,” Shannen accurately obsessed. “Do you really think Keith Urban worries about Nicole Kidman?” She then reassured Tori that, when it comes to finding a secure partner: “It is possible, in my opinion.” Shannen Doherty attends the FOX Summer TCA 2019 All-Star Party at Fox Studios on August 07, 2019. (Photo Credit: Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images) Tori Spelling had the insight to acknowledge that self-sabotage plays a role when she pursues new romantic relationships. “I preemptively make myself small and plummet myself and sabotage myself from building my career,” she admitted. “Don’t ever make yourself small for anyone,” Shannen Doherty then instructed her. Tori Spelling arrives to attend iHeartRadio’s KIIS FM Wango Tango at The Dignity Health Sports Park in Los Angeles on June 4, 2022. (Photo Credit: MICHAEL TRAN/AFP via Getty Images) “I’ve been telling you that for 30 frickin’ years,” Shannen reminded her. “You really have. I didn’t listen,” Tori acknowledged. Her friend hoped that she would listen to her next words and take them to heart. “You’ve never really owned your power. And you’ve always been insecure. And you’ve always had a little bit of fear and you’ve always settled for a lot less than you deserved,” Shannen counseled her. “And it’s time to change that and you’re on the right track. … You have power in you, you just haven’t tapped into it fully.” Shannen Doherty Begs Tori Spelling to Fix ‘Depressing’ Dating Life: Own Your … was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

Zendaya pregnant? When she’s at the top of her game? When she hasn’t even married boyfriend Tom Holland yet? These are the kinds of wild rumors and stupid questions that have forced the Euphoria star’s hand. She hasn’t been given any choice. Zendaya doesn’t like talking in public about her relationship. She prefers to keep her private life private. But the beloved actress has had to change her typically quiet tune, following reports that surfaced throughout social media — and which made Zendaya understandably furious. Tom Holland and Zendaya attend the Spider-Man: No Way Home Los Angeles Premiere on December 13, 2021 in this sweet photo. (Getty Images) Zendaya Pregnant Rumors: How She Responds Over the past few years, the rumor mill has churned out plenty of stories about the young star and Emmy winner. As she stands on the precipice of her first Oscar nomination with the movie Challengers, it looks like the mill is starting up again. Fans and/or trolls, depending on how you look at it, are trying to will into existence Zendaya taking the next step in her person life. Whether it be settling down with Tom Holland, getting hitched, or the prevailing storyline, getting pregnant. But Zendaya has been very clear about how she feels about these rumors. You see, a pair of of TikTok videos went viral in the summer of 2022 that made it — falsely!!! — look like the Euphoria actress was expecting a baby with boyfriend Tom Holland. They did so by incorporating an annoying “Krissed” meme, which means the footage featured a look at Zendaya’s — phony!!!! — ultrasound… and then cut to a video of Kris Jenner dancing to “Lady Marmalade,” a pranking trend known as getting, yes, “”Krissed.” Hmm, maybe TikTok should be banned? (Kidding! Kidding! Don’t come for us!) Despite being in the middle of filming her tennis epic, the pregnancy rumors reached the desk of Zendaya and shockingly, she responded. Zendaya Pleads: Stop ‘Making Stuff Up’ Despite the aforementioned TikTok videos concluding with an admission that the Zendaya pregnancy rumors were complete BS, plenty of Zendaya’s fans heard the news secondhand and believed the story to be true. Hence, the superstar’s need to clear things up. “See now, this is why I stay off Twitter,” she wrote on her Instagram Story on June 15, 2022. “Just making stuff up for no reason weekly.” “Anyway back to filming…Challengers,” the actress added, citing the romantic drama she’d been shooting with The Crown‘s Josh O’Connor and West Side Story‘s Mike Faist. Zendaya attends the 2022 TIME100 Gala on June 08, 2022 in New York City. She looks gorgeous! (Getty Images for TIME) Honestly Though – Who Believes This Crap?! The thing about TikTok is that it’s invited a brand new generation of clickbait to circulate on the web. If one isn’t careful, one gets tricked into believing just about anything. One of the aforementioned videos was shared by TikTok user @robairesbussy. It includes a photoshopped snapshpt of Zendaya with a baby bump, walking with Holland, and the words, “WAIT SINCE WHEN WAS ZENDAYA PREGNANT.” The caption notes the clip is a “#joke.” Not everyone read the caption, though. Zendaya attends the HBO Max FYC event for Euphoria at Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on April 20, 2022 in this photograph. (Getty Images) Another TikTok video showed the poster pretending to gasp at the image of a sonogram of a fetus about 20 weeks old… superimposed on a screenshot of an actual Instagram post that Zendaya shared on January 30, which had contained a promo for Euphoria. You can see where the confusion came in, right? Zendaya had included the caption, “I love you. Halfway there [heart emoji].” But the TikTok user edited it to look like she tagged Holland, Zendaya’s Spider-Man co-star; and it also included a text box with the words, “There’s no way.” At the end of the clip, a dancing Kris Jenner appear, along with the text, “YOU JUST GOT KRISSED…SEND THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS TO #KRIS THEM!” Welp. This is different. What do you think of Zenday’s fashion choice at the 2018 MTV Movie And TV Awards? (Getty Images) Tom Holland and Zendaya’s Future: Where Do They Stand? Zendaya and Tom met in 2016 while filming Spider Man: Homecoming. After they denied rumors that their friendship was anything romantic for years, the celebrities were spotted kissing in July 2021. Still, neither Zendaya nor Holland talk much about the other in the press or on social media. Although the exceptions made are so sweet. For example, Zendaya loves to wish her British boy a happy birthday via Instagram and Tom is known to show her the same affection time and again. One things for sure: if these two have something to tell us, they’ll TELL us. So, don’t believe everything you watch on TikTok, huh?

It’s the rumor that refuses to go away. Is Kylie Jenner pregnant with what would be an absolutely gorgeous child, considering she’s dating Dune actor Timothée Chalamet? This question has been floating around the Internet for several weeks now. Why? Kylie Jenner attends the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on March 11, 2024 in Beverly Hills. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images) Partly due to comedian Daniel Tosh, who said a short time ago on his podcast that the upcoming season finale of The Kardashians on Hulu will feature a “bombshell” announcement by Jenner. “Kylie reveals that she’s pregnant again with Timothée’s kid,” Tosh claimed at the time, citing an anonymous grocery store employee who told Tosh that producers shut down this establishment to film the important scene. Not exactly the most reliable source, we’d say. To be clear, neither Jenner nor Chalamet has verified this report. Kylie Jenner attends the Jacquemus Womenswear Ready-to-wear Spring-Summer 2024 collection at Maeght Foundation, in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, southern France, on January 29, 2024. (Photo by Valery HACHE / AFP) (Photo by VALERY HACHE/AFP via Getty Images) Jenner, who has two kids with ex Travis Scott, has notoriously remained quiet about her pregnancies, however. A handful of nosy Instagram users have argued of late that Jenner’s string of recent photos aren’t actually new; and/or they’ve honed in on the areas above Kylie’s alleged baby bump. So, what’s going on here? Are Jenner and Chalamet, who are very much still together, expecting a son or daughter? Kylie Jenner attends the WSJ Magazine 2023 Innovator Awards at Museum of Modern Art on November 1, 2023 in New York City. (Photo by Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images) “Kylie is not pregnant,” numerous sources just told Us Weekly of the 26-year old. The tabloid now does confirm that the reality star and the actor are “navigating long-distance,” though, considering Jenner lives in California with children Stormi, 6, and Aire, 2… … while Chalamet is currently in production on A Complete Unknown, a biopic about Bob Dylan, which is shooting in New York City and New Jersey. “Kylie and Timothée have been keeping in touch while he’s been in [Manhattan] filming and are still together,” the insider explains. Kylie Jenner and actor Timothée Chalamet look on during the Men’s Singles Final match between Novak Djokovic of Serbia and Daniil Medvedev of Russia on Day Fourteen of the 2023 US Open at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on September 10, 2023 in the Flushing neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City. (Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images) Jenner and Chalamet were were seen packing on the PDA at Beyoncé’s birthday Renaissance concert in Los Angeles in August 2023 weeks. As you can see in the snapshot above, they then caused quite the romantic stir when they attended New York Fashion Week and the US Open. Where might things go from there? For two people who like the same music and share the same friends, according to Us Weekly? “Everything is going great between them. They both have really busy schedules but make as much time for each other as possible,” a second source told this outlet in January, adding: “Timothée is always making Kylie smile. They have a very special connection.” Kylie Jenner Pregnant? We May Finally Have An Answer was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article

Jon Gosselin is coming out with new music! Yes, really. In addition to his day job and public figure status, Jon Gosselin is also a professional DJ. He’s now part of a music duo. New songs are coming out this summer, and one single is already out (below). Jon Gosselin attends Kickz For Kids with celebrity philanthropist Patrick Carroll at Conrad Prebys Escondido Branch – Boys & Girls Club on March 07, 2024. (Photo Credit: Jerod Harris/Getty Images for M. Patrick Carroll) DJ Casper and Jon Gosselin are teaming up Jay-Z, Akon, and Nicki Minaj are only some of the big names who have worked with DJ Casper (real name Joseph Wright) over the years. It just so happens that he also happens to be close friends with fellow DJ Jon Gosselin. Together, the famed DJ Casper tells The US Sun, they are working to produce “high-energy, feel-good music.” DJ Casper performs during ITalk “Motivational Nightlife” event at Ogilvy & Mather Advertising on February 21, 2020. (Photo Credit: Bennett Raglin/Getty Images for iTalk Events) Their collaboration has already dropped one song, “Voicemail.” You can listen to that track below. More will come out in the summer of 2024. Collaborating on music like this may be a little new for the duo. But their friendship goes way back. Jon Gosselin and DJ Casper met at a DJ convention DJ Casper recalled to The US Sun how they met 10 years ago and have remained friends ever since. He is clearly excited about their collaboration. “Jon and I are creating upbeat, vibe-y, high-energy, feel-good music,” he announced. That is certainly an underappreciated vibe for music. “And,” he acknowledged, “I am not sure if the music will actually align to any particular genre as of now.” Jon Gosselin opened up to a notorious TV quack about how his divorce cost him everything and about how his ex became twisted and warped. (Image Credit: NBC) “A lot of the music will feel like a beach setting or something you would want to listen to on an island,” DJ Casper then characterized of his and Jon Gosselin’s collaboration. “When I hear the first song,” he reflected, “I envision myself driving down Rodeo Drive or down South Beach in my convertible with the top down or being in the club and just wanting to turn up.” DJ Casper then shared: “Jon’s life experiences, the stories that we share, and our mutual foundation of friendship absolutely influence the music that we are creating.” The chill vibes sound like a good fit for Jon Gosselin’s new music Years ago, when Jon & Kate Plus 8 first aired (and, let’s be real, first signaled the cultural decline of TLC), Jon did not seem like a good dad. He seemed like a man who was in way over his head and felt more interested in enjoying his newfound fame than as dedicating himself to parenthood. Perhaps that public perception was unfair. Or perhaps it wasn’t. Jon is a flawed man — he just happens to be a much better parent than his evil ex-wife. Jon’s “party boy” image lingers for many to this day. And even though his children are all adults and he has a day job, some may scoff at him producing “party boy” music. But also? Jon is at a place in life where he’s balancing happiness with sadness. He has his lovely lady love but he also remains estranged from several of his children. A lot of people with very different life circumstances can relate. Sometimes, you need good vibes — from TV, from friends, from music — to get through the bad times. Jon and DJ Casper could definitely channel that into the music. Even if they don’t produce 2024’s “song of the summer,” they’ll almost certainly gain some new fans for their duo act.

Victoria Beckham reportedly really, really wants to become a grandma. And she’s looking to gorgeous son and daughter-in-law Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham to award that status. It’s possible that enough of Victoria Beckham’s friends are in their grandma era that she’s experiencing some FOMO. Word is that she’s starting to drop “hints” to her daughter-in-law that she’d like to become a grandmother sooner rather than later. Victoria Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham arrive for the premiere of the movie “Lola” at the Bruin Theatre, in Los Angeles, California on February 3, 2024. (Photo Credit: LISA O’CONNOR/AFP via Getty Images) Believe it or not, Victoria Beckham is 50 Victoria Beckham is 50 years old. Her husband, David Beckham, is 48. At this age, some people remain childfree. It’s not an unusual age at which to have high school students. The Beckhams are the parents to three sons and a daughter: Brooklyn (born 1999), Romeo (born 2002), Cruz (born 2005), and Harper (born 2011). Through Brooklyn’s marriage, they have a daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz Beckham (born 1995). Brooklyn Beckham and wife US actress Nicola Peltz pose ahead of the presentation of creations by Mugler for the Women Ready-to-wear Fall-Winter 2024/2025 collection as part of the Paris Fashion Week, in Paris on March 3, 2024. (Photo Credit: GEOFFROY VAN DER HASSELT/AFP via Getty Images) Victoria Beckham is reportedly getting on Nicola Peltz Beckham’s nerves A new report by Life & Style claims that Victoria Beckham wants Brooklyn and Nicola to make her a grandma — sooner rather than later. “Victoria just turned 50 and she’s ready for the next stage in her life — to be a doting grandma,” the insider described. “She’s been bugging Nic about making babies,” the source reported. “And she’s constantly dropping little hints.” Victoria Beckham attends the “Le Chouchou” Jacquemus’ Fashion Show at Chateau de Versailles on June 26, 2023. (Photo Credit: Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images) Are Brooklyn and Nicola ready to become parents? Two years into their marriage, Nicola is 29 years old. Brooklyn is 25. 100 years earlier, these would be normal ages at which to be parents. In 2024, they’d be arguably young to become parents — though, for most of their age group, there are financial reasons to postpone parenthood. That is not an issue for either scion of extreme wealth. “She admits she does eventually want kids — some biological, some adopted,” the insider reported. “But says she’s not ready. At this point, the ball is in her court!” David Beckham and Victoria Beckham look on prior to the Leagues Cup 2023 match between Inter Miami CF and Atlanta United at DRV PNK Stadium on July 25, 2023. (Photo Credit: Megan Briggs/Getty Images) Nicola does want kids — one day In a February issue of Nylon, Nicola Peltz Beckham did not sound too far off from Victoria Beckham’s reported grandma goals. “I love that he really wants to be a dad,” Nicola gushed about Brooklyn. She confirmed that she would like a large family — being the youngest of eight siblings herself. But she still has career goals to pursue. And a little life experience and maturity never hurt anyone when it comes to being the best parent that they can be.

Though some of her fans may not realize it, Reese Witherspoon is twice divorced. But fortunately, she’s not allowing her past romantic setbacks to discourage her from reentering the dating pool. Reese and Jim Toth just finalized their divorce last year, but according to a report from Us Weekly, the mother of three wasted no time in moving on. “Reese hasn’t been out on too many dates, but she’s been set up with a few friends of friends,” a source told the outlet. Reese Witherspoon attends the 24th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at The Shrine Auditorium on January 21, 2018 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Christopher Polk/Getty Images for Turner) The source added that Reese is “taking things very slowly” and not rushing into anything serious. While it’s only been nine months since Reese’s second marriage legally came to an end, she and Jim decided to end call it quits over a year ago. Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth Announced Their Divorce on Instagram Jim Toth and Reese Witherspoon attend The 23rd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards at Barker Hangar on January 11, 2018 in Santa Monica, California. (Photo by Christopher Polk/Getty Images for The Critics’ Choice Awards ) “We have some personal news to share … It is with a great deal of care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce,” the former couple wrote on Instagram in March of last year. “We have enjoyed so many wonderful years together and are moving forward with deep love, kindness and mutual respect for everything we have created together.” The announcement came as a shock to fans, but insiders tell Us that marital difficulties had been “brewing for some time.” Reese Witherspoon attends The Hollywood Reporter’s Power 100 Women in Entertainment at Milk Studios on December 11, 2019 in Hollywood, California. (Photo by Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images for The Hollywood Reporter) One month later, Reese filed for divorce, and in August, the split was finalized. It was the second divorce for Reese, who called it quits with Ryan Phillippe in 2007.

(Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images for AFI) In the early days of their marriage, Reese and Ryan were a full-blown Hollywood power couple. But they were both in their early twenties when they married, and it seems that they simply grew apart over time. So after two children and eight years of marriage, Reese and Ryan went their separate ways in 2007. The following year, she entered a relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal.

Now, the 47-year-old A-lister has reentered the world of dating once again. “In an ideal world, she’d love to meet someone special in 2024 and eventually settle down again,” a second source tells Us, adding that “for now, there’s no pressure” for Witherspoon to find the perfect partner. The insider adds that Reese and Jim split on amicable terms and enjoyed a “very healthy relationship and a lot of great times” before calling it quits.

((Photo by Vivien Killilea/Getty Images for Tequila Don Julio)) Sophia Bush Confirms She Has A Girlfriend: I ‘Can Breathe’ Now After several failed marriages and a lifetime having her relationships analyzed, Sophia Bush was able to share the truth about her romantic life on her own terms. Shortly after ending her second marriage with Grant Hughes, there were murmurs that she had moved on with someone else: former US soccer star Ashlyn Harris. The relationship marks the confirmation that Sophia is queer, a lable she is very happy to finally be sharing out loud. “As I came into myself, I already felt it was my home. I think I’ve always known that my sexuality exists on a spectrum,” Bush, 41, said in her self-written Glamour cover story. “Right now I think the word that best defines it is queer. I can’t say it without smiling, actually. And that feels pretty great.” “I finally feel like I can breathe. I don’t think I can explain how profound that is,” she added. But she tries all the same. “I feel like I was wearing a weighted vest for who knows how long. I hadn’t realized how heavy it was until I finally just put it down.” Ashlyn Harris attends the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s 32nd Annual Academy Awards Viewing Party on March 10, 2024 in West Hollywood, California. (Photo by Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) Who Is Ashlyn Harris? But is this woman who has captured Sophia’s heart? Ashlyn is beloved American former soccer player. She made her debut with the senior national team on March 11, 2013, and competed in both the 2015 and 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cups, alongside teammates like Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger, who she later married. While Ashlyn has been out for quite some time, Sophia came to the realization later in life. However, being an ally for so many years, Sophia said she’s “experienced so much safety, respect, and love in the queer community” now that she’s a member. “I sort of hate the notion of having to come out in 2024. But I’m deeply aware that we are having this conversation in a year when we’re seeing the most aggressive attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community in modern history,” she continued. “There were more than 500 anti-LGBTQIA+ bills proposed in state legislatures in 2023, so for that reason I want to give the act of coming out the respect and honor it deserves.” Ali Krieger and ex wife Ashlyn Harris attend the Human Rights Campaign’s 2023 Greater New York Dinner at The New York Marriott Marquis on February 04, 2023 in New York City. ((Photo by Roy Rochlin/Getty Images)) Does Ashlyn Harris Have Kids? Ashlyn started a relationship with former USWNT teammate Ali Krieger in 2010. Their romance lasted 13 years, and by all accounts seemed to be happy during that time. They were on December 28, 2019, in Miami with fellow soccer star Megan Rapinoe serving as Ashlyn’s maid of honor. Two years later, on Valentine’s Day 2021, the couple announced that they had adopted a daughter, Sloane. A year later, on August 16, 2022, they announced the adoption of their son, Ocean. On September 19, 2023, Ashlyn filed for divorce, a move that was a complete shock to her partner for nearly 13 years. “I found out at training,” Ali told Self Magazine in January 2024. “I was on the field. And I came off the field, in the locker room, and I was obviously devastated.” The reason behind the divorce remains unknown, though many have speculated that it’s due to Ashlyn meeting Sophia. Since Sophia’s divorce happened right around the same time. ‘One Tree Hill’ star Sophia Bush attends “Melissa Etheridge: My Window” Opening Night at Circle in the Square Theatre on September 28, 2023 in New York City.

However, the romance lasted for a little more than a year before the she filed for divorce in August 2023. If you’re doing the math, that’s a month before Ashlyn ended her marriage. By October 2023, the two were romantically linked, and the rumors of infideility and homewrecking started flying. “The ones who said I’d left my ex because I suddenly realized I wanted to be with women — my partners have known what I’m into for as long as I have,” she wrote. “The idea that I left my marriage based on some hysterical rendezvous — that, to be crystal-clear, never happened — rather than having taken over a year to do the most soul crushing work of my life? Rather than realizing I had to be the most vulnerable I’ve ever been, on a public stage, despite being terrified to my core? It feels brutal.” Ashlyn Harris: Meet Sophia Bush’s Surprise Girlfriend & Soccer Star was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article

Blake Shelton is discussing a possible return to The Voice. That’s great news for fans. But viewers who enjoy all-important rotations of The Voice coaches may be less eager for him to return. When Blake Shelton showed up at Coachella, it was to support Gwen Stefani. Her No Doubt reunion was one of the hottest acts at the annual music festival. Truth be told, he doesn’t sound too eager to resume his coaching position. But he’s clearly not ruling out anything. Blake Shelton performs onstage during day one for the Warner Music Nashville Lunch during CRS 2024 at Omni Nashville Hotel on February 28, 2024. (Photo Credit: Danielle Del Valle/Getty Images) Many people first learned of Blake Shelton by watching ‘The Voice’ Though Blake Shelton was already popular within the niche music genre of Country, his music has not broken into the mainstream. However, his name and face have. Part of that is because of his famous wife, Gwen Stefani. But part of that is because of his longtime role as a coach on The Voice, starting with its premiere in 2011. But Blake Shelton exited The Voice following Season 23. That means 23 consecutive seasons over 12 consecutive years. Blake Shelton attends “CMT Giants: Alabama” at The Fisher Center for the Performing Arts on January 17, 2024. (Photo Credit: Jason Davis/Getty Images) Does Blake Shelton plan to return to ‘The Voice’ any time soon? On Sunday, April 21, Blake Shelton spoke to Extra TV to admit that he has no official plans to return to his coaching role. “I don’t ever plan on working at The Voice again,” he said. However, he also has not ruled anything out. In fact, he offered a tease for what the future may bring. Never say never! “Who knows?” Blake Shelton then mused about a possible The Voice comeback. “That’s me sitting here as I say that right now.” He fully admitted: “I can’t say I wouldn’t come by for a surprise appearance.” A cameo comeback isn’t the same thing as a coaching position. He has positive memories of that high-paying gig, however. Blake Shelton attends the 2022 Matrix Awards at The Ziegfeld Ballroom on October 26, 2022. (Photo Credit: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) ‘The Voice’ marks an important period in Blake Shelton’s life “That show is the greatest and most important thing I’ve ever been a part of in my career,” he affirmed. “It changed my life.” Not only did he introduce himself to new audience and rake in a colossal amount of money in the process, but he also met his wife on the show. “When I left, I feel like I really left; we all love each other,” he emphasized of the team of coaches on The Voice. In other words, it was not a bitter parting. Blake Shelton attends his Star Ceremony on The Hollywood Walk Of Fame on May 12, 2023. (Photo Credit: Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) So why did Blake Shelton leave ‘The Voice’ in the first place? “I’ve done it for 23 seasons without missing a single season, you know?” Blake explained. “I know what you feel like, Pat Sajak!” Sajak hosted Wheel of Fortune for 41 years. Starting this autumn, the legendary Vanna White will co-host, unfortunately alongside Ryan Seacrest. “Because that’s kind of how I was starting to feel,” Shelton admitted. “If you’re on back-to-back seasons, there’s really no time for any other thing, you know?” He then reasoned: “If you didn’t want to have a family and a life that much you could do it, but something has to give. It was time for The Voice to be thing that gives.” Blake Shelton Teases Return to ‘The Voice’ Shortly After Quitting was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article

Justin Bieber may be spiraling in terms of his mental health and behavior, friends fear. The Biebs was one of the surprise Coachella guests who even got on stage, albeit not for his own music festival performance. Normally, these cameo appearances are exciting for fans. But Justin’s fans and friends alike saw red flags as he joined Tems and Wizkid on stage. People who care about him worry that he’s not ready to perform again — because his mental and emotional health are still too fragile.

On April 14, Justin Bieber joined Tems on stage for a song at Coachella. He worse oversized, baggy clothes that hid his lean frame while attending and singing at the music festival. “He looked like he just stepped out of the audience,” a witness described Bieber’s cameo to In Touch Weekly. It’s a big deal that Bieber stepped onto a stage at all. Following his partial face paralysis in 2022, he canceled just Justice tour and has performed sporadically at best ever since. “It’s a good sign he felt comfortable enough to get on stage,” the witness observed. “And,” the source commented, “a lot of fans are hoping this means he’ll be making his music comeback soon.” It’s true that Justin Bieber regained mobility in his face in 2023. That viral infection was no joke. However, many insiders counsel against getting too excited for a Biebs comeback.

Cox/Getty Images) Is Justin Bieber spiraling? According to the insider, “he’s still fragile and seemed checked out all weekend.” Years ago, the Biebs was notorious for his glaring behavioral problems. Though he had seemingly mellowed in recent years, his illness and recovery could — some worry — have led to him falling into old habits. “He finally got his health back,” the source celebrated. “But now friends are worried that he’s spiraling again.” Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber watch Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, Nevada, February 11, 2024. (Photo Credit: PATRICK T. FALLON/AFP via Getty Images) Simply put, the epic highs and lows of the past few years seem to have taken a toll on Justin Bieber. “He has severe ups and downs,” the insider pointed out. Justin Bieber had his facial paralysis. He had Lyme disease. On the mental health side of things, he has battled depression and struggled with both anger management and impulse control. And there are many rumors of marital troubles. Justin Bieber attends the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards at MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 03, 2022. (Photo Credit: Rich Fury/Getty Images for The Recording Academy) Marriage did not fix all of Justin Bieber’s problems After he rushed into proposing to and marrying Hailey Baldwin, he suffered an emotional breakdown “because I thought marriage was going to fix all my problems.” Justin said this directly back in 2022. It is unclear why he believed this. Many believe that Justin received some misguided religious counseling at Hillsong Church, the controversial megachurch that cultivates relationships with celebrities. According to the inside source, Hailey Bieber helped to keep him from imploding. “He wouldn’t be here without her,” the insider told In Touch Weekly. Justin Bieber takes part in the draft during 2024 NHL All-Star Thursday at Scotiabank Arena on February 01, 2024. (Photo Credit: Bruce Bennett/Getty Images) The source died warn that “there’s only so much Hailey can do to keep Justin from going off the rails again.” Ultimately, Justin has more control over that than anyone else, but that doesn’t mean that he can do it alone. Countless fans conclude that this struggle is why Stephen Baldwin asked fans to pray for the Biebers. “Their marriage is Hailey’s priority, as well as keeping him healthy,” the insider affirmed. “Coachella was a huge accomplishment for Justin, and everyone is rooting for him. But he’s still very fragile.” Justin Bieber Spiraling Out of Control Again? Fans Worry After ‘Fragile’ … was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article

Meghan Markle is in the process of promoting her new lifestyle brand. And what better way to get the word out than by calling in some favors from her most famous friends? As we’ve previously reported, Meghan is hard at work rolling out American Riviera Orchard, a company that will curate the finer things in life for the sort of well-off folks who run in the duchess’ inner circle. It’s expected that Meghan will eventually partner with luxury brands and release a slate of her own products — sort of like what Gwyneth Paltrow’s done with Goop. Meghan Markle is seen ahead of her visit with Prince Harry to the iconic Titanic Belfast during their trip to Northern Ireland on March 23, 2018 in Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. (Photo by Charles McQuillan/Getty Images) But in the meantime, she’s starting out with a much more rustic approach. Meghan Markle’s Lifestyle Brand Gets a Soft Launch As The Daily Mail reports, Meghan recently mailed out 50 jars of artisanal jam made from fruit grown near her home in Montecito. Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex attend the Unveiling of the Labalaba Statue Meghan, Duchess of Sussex looking straight to camera on October 25, 2018 in Nadi, Fiji. (Photo by Chris Jackson/Getty Images) The lucky recipients, or “jamfluencers,” are friends of Meghan’s, at least some of whom happen to be celebrities who are now helping the duchess create buzz for her brand. Mindy Kaling, Chrissy Teigen, Kris Jenner, and Tracee Ellis Ross are just some of the celebs who have taken to Instagram to publicly thank Meghan for the fancy preserves (complete with hand-numbered label). We’re sure Meg enjoys gifting swanky items to her famous friends — but generosity might not have been the main motivator here.

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are on day 11 of their 16-day tour of Australia and the South Pacific. (Photo by Kirsty Wigglesworth – Pool/Getty Images) According to PR expert Nick Ede, Meghan was able to launch the equivalent of a multimillion-dollar ad campaign, and all it cost her was 50 jars of jam. “Most campaigns in the modern era are accompanied by ‘influencer’ gifting, but I would suggest that Meghan Markle’s influencer network is slightly more grand than most,” Ede explained to the Mail this week. “Her little black book of celebrity contacts will be the thing of PR dreams, and so her first product launch was always going to be a huge media success,” he added. Meghan, Duchess of Sussex meets members of the public on the long Walk at Windsor Castle after viewing flowers and tributes to HM Queen Elizabeth on September 10, 2022 in Windsor, England. (Photo by Chris Jackson/Getty Images) “The true test will come with her follow up products and keeping people interested in what she is doing.” Meghan’s Jam Strategy Thus far, Meghan’s efforts seem to be paying off. Only eight of the 50 jam recipients have been identified, and the situation has created excitement on social media, as Meghan fans guess at who else may have scored a jar.

(Photo by Ben Birchall – WPA Pool / Getty Images) “The key to success is to try and keep the story running for as long as possible,” says Ede. “Get the news of the launch out there, tick, then keep drip-feeding more information every few days in order to keep people interested.” In the years since the couple left the UK, there’s been a great deal of debate over Meghan and Prince Harry’s abilities as entrepreneurs. But if Meghan can generate this sort of buzz just by mailing out a few jars of jam, then her critics might have severely underestimated her!

The time may have finally arrived for Jennifer Aniston. According to In Touch Weekly, the veteran actress may soon sit down and write a memoir that delves into her impressive career…. addresses all those plastic surgery rumors… and, yes, gets into her marriage to Brad Pitt. “Jen is finally ready to tell all,” this tabloid now claims. “She realized life is short, so why not do it now?” Jennifer Aniston arrives at PaleyFest LA 2024 – “The Morning Show” at Dolby Theatre on April 12, 2024 in Hollywood. (Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images) The decision to do so has allegedly been driven by Matthew Perry’s memoir, which inspired millions of people due to Perry’s candor when it came to his many years of substance abuse. Perry, of course, passed away in October. Aniston has been struggling tremendously in the wake of this tragedy. But she practices daily gratitude journaling for years, In Touch goes on to state, with the insider saying that Aniston “is going to do it right” and that “nothing is off-limits.” There’s even an early manuscript, the magazine reports, and it reveals “secrets she’s never told.” Jennifer Aniston speaks onstage during the 30th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall on February 24, 2024 in Los Angeles. (Photo by Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images) Aniston, of course, married Pitt way back in 2005; the two split five years later after Pitt fell for Angelina Jolie while filming the movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith. It’s a story that still drives interest, despite Aniston never really expressing hard feelings against either her ex-husband or the woman he went on to marry. “Jen knows people want to hear all about her love affair with Brad and the truth about their divorce, especially since Brad and Angelina have now split and Jen and Brad have reconnected,” In Touch writes. Indeed, to this day, many folks out there think Aniston and Pitt may get back together. Jennifer Aniston attends the 2024 Critics Choice Awards on January 14, 2024 in Santa Monica, California. (Photo by Presley Ann/Getty Images for SeeHer) “I’d be a robot if I said I didn’t feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment,” Aniston confessed at one point about her divorce, famously suggesting that “a sensitivity chip that’s missing” in Pitt. She has also referred to their union as a “beautiful, complicated relationship.” Elsewhere, for whatever reason, Aniston’s pregnancy journey has also been a major point of interest to the general public. She has said she’s at peace with not being a mother, but total strangers on the Internet refuse to believe her.

Last Friday, after The Tortured Poets Department dropped, Matt Healy’s ears had to be BURNING. It’s become a forgone conclusion amongst Taylor Swift’s fans that the lion share of the songs off of the Anthology were inspired by her brief affair with the 1975 rocker. Yet, while many songs are written about Taylor’s exes, few times have one of these gentlemen been cornered and asked how they feel about the tracks they’ve inspired. But that’s this? Oh, it looks like Matt Healy, being put right on the spot! Matthew Healy performs during the The 1975 concert during the Lollapaloosa Sao Paulo 2019 – Day 1 on April 05, 2019 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

As shocking as it may be to believe, Jill Duggar Dillard has reunited with her estranged parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, for the first time in forever. Unfortunately for her, it was for a devastating reason. Turns out, Jim Bob was included in a special memorial held for Isla Marie, Jill’s daughter who tragically died in utero. (TLC) Jim Bob and Jill Duggar Reunite At Memorial For Her Still Born Baby Jill Duggar Dillard and her husband Derick mourned the loss of of their first daughter, Isla Marie, during a memorial service in April. Sadly, when Jill was only four months pregnant, Isla died while still in utero. The former Counting On couple decided to surround themselves with family during the difficult time and invited many of Jill’s siblings to participate in a memorial service. Surprisingly, the invitation was extended to Jill’s father, Jim Bob Duggar as well. While she mad managed to maintain a relationship with her mother, Jill has not spoken or seen her father for a long time. In fact, in 2023, Jill and Derrick published a tell-all book that exposed all of the hardships they faced with Jim Bob in their life. Still, it appears that in this time of deep sorrow, Jill and Jim Bob are putting aside their differences to mourn. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar pose with their many, many children. (Photo Credit: TLC) A Beautiful Memorial For a Lost Duggar In photos posted by Jill and Derick to Instagram, the couple shared with followers intimate moments of the memorial. A photo carousel on Jill’s page featured a series of heartbreaking images, including a box containing Isla’s remains and a collection of books her parents had hoped to share with her. In another set of photos, what looks to be most of Jill’s family attends a balloon release service for Isla. Jim Bob and Michelle can be clearly seen together, as well as Jessa Duggar Seewald, Jackson Duggar, Joseph Duggar, and their families. “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the stillbirth of our beautiful baby girl, Isla Marie Dillard,” the couple wrote in their announcement on April 14. “Jill was 4 months pregnant (due in August) when we found out that our baby died in utero. From the moment we found out we were pregnant, we couldn’t wait to meet our baby. Isla was much loved from the start, and her 3 big brothers were so excited to introduce her to their world.” Jill Duggar spoke with fans on YouTube in September of 2023. (Photo Credit: YouTube) Jill & Jim Bob: Will Their Relationship Be Mended? Fans have followed along as the relationship between Jill Duggar and her parents deteriorated over the years, long before it reached its breaking point. But even after Jill’s parents accused her of corrupting her siblings, she wanted to stay close to them all. The final straw came over the last few years, when her parents pitted her against her husband and forced her to choose between them and Derrick. “As we paved our own path, it became very difficult for me,” Jill expressed in an interview last fall. She explained that it became challenging “because I realized I could not please my parents and do what I feel like we’re being called to do.” Jill Duggar Reunites With Estranged Parents Jim Bob & Michelle After Still Birth was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip.

Billie Eilish’s upcoming album is direct about her attraction to women. Her new interview is even more direct. Years ago, trolls accused Billie Eilish of “queerbaiting” even though that term applies to entertainment media, not to real people. In 2023, Billie spoke of her attraction to women. But she didn’t really intend to “come out” in that moment. Now, that has changed. In fact, one of Billie’s newest songs is about a very palpable desire for women. And she wrote the song before and after her first time with another woman. Billie Eilish attends the 96th Annual Academy Awards on March 10, 2024. (Photo Credit: Rodin Eckenroth/Getty Images) ‘Lunch’ is one of the songs from Billie Eilish’ upcoming album Hit Me Hard and Soft has a May 17 release date. So ahead of the album, Billie sat down with Rolling Stone for the May 2024 cover story. One of the songs, “Lunch,” arose as the 22-year-old artist examined her own sexuality. The songwriting process involved some very important self-discovery. “That song was actually part of what helped me become who I am, to be real,” Billie Eilish expressed. “I wrote some of it before even doing anything with a girl, and then wrote the rest after.” Billie Eilish performs onstage during the 96th Annual Academy Awards at Dolby Theatre on March 10, 2024. (Photo Credit: Kevin Winter/Getty Images) “Lunch” involves Billie Eilish harboring such an intense crush on a girl that she “likens sex with her to devouring a meal.” Sometimes, the best expressions of sexual desire are very similar to discussing hunger. So long as you don’t cross the line into cannibalism, it’s a great way to be horny in a poetic way. “I’ve been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just didn’t understand,” Billie acknowledged. “Until, last year, I realized I wanted my face in a vagina.” Attention: Billie Eilish has previewed lyrics about ‘eating a girl’ for lunch. ???? pic.twitter.com/OdNour2SD0 — PinkNews (@PinkNews) April 17, 2024 ‘I realized I wanted my face in a vagina’ is an amazing sentence Billie Eilish’s lyrics are subtler, but only slightly. “I could eat that girl for lunch / Yeah, she dances on my tongue / Tastes like she might be the one,” she sings. “And I can never get enough / I could buy you so much stuff / It’s a craving, not a crush.” That’s fantastic. It’s something that many listeners will find viscerally relatable. And I, for one, cannot wait to hear the Kidz Bop version. Billie Eilish 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on March 10, 2024. (Photo Credit: Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images for Vanity Fair) During previous interviews, Billie Eilish has felt taken aback by questions about her sexuality. Clearly, she feels more comfortable with the topic now. “I went into Billie Eilish interview mode, [like], ‘Oh, I don’t care. Yeah, I’ll say whatever. Wasn’t it obvious?’” she recalled of her 2023 Variety interview. “And then afterwards I was like, ‘Wait. It wasn’t obvious to me.’” Sometimes, people feel like they are the last to know something obvious about themselves. And no, “we all knew” does not make them feel better. Billie Eilish attends the 2024 Film Independent Spirit Awards on February 25, 2024. (Photo Credit: Monica Schipper/Getty Images) Billie know that many people cannot come out as easily as she has “I’m lucky enough to be in a time when I’m able to say something like that and things go OK for me,” she acknowledged. “That’s not how a lot of people’s experience is.” Meanwhile, Billie — who has only (publicly) dated men in the past — feels frustrated with questions about sexuality labels. Some people change sexuality labels over time, and others eschew them altogether. “I think that there’s a lot of wanting labels all over the place. … It takes a while to find yourself,” she sagely observed. “and I think it’s really unfair, the way that the internet bullies you into talking about who you are and what you are.” Billie Eilish attends the 30th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall on February 24, 2024. (Photo Credit: Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) Officially, Billie Eilish’s most recent relationship was with Jesse Rutherford, a fellow singer-songwriter. They are no longer together, Billie seemed to spend time with actress Ava Capri after the 2023 Met Gala, which prompted rumors. More recently, Billie’s appearance on multiple TikTok videos with Quenlin Blackwell has spawned new rumors. Especially after the two spent time together at Coachella. Does Billie Eilish have a girlfriend? According to Coachella goers, Billie Eilish pulled in Quenlin for a kiss while playing “Lunch” for attendees. That said, a kiss — especially during a performance — is not the same as any sort of relationship confirmation. Billie will announce a relationship, no matter the gender of her partner, if and when she chooses. We’re happy that she knows herself and that she’s devouring life experiences with gusto.

It’s the end of a precious, endearing, very long-lasting era. On Tuesday night, TLC aired the latest season finale of Little People, Big World. And while the fate of the show remains high up in the air, the fate of two key cast members has already been decided: Zach and Tori Roloff will not be returning tot he reality series. The Roloffs on Little People, Big World here on the show’s season finale. (TLC) “We are done. That part of our lives, that chapter has closed,” said Tori Roloff on a recent episode of her and her husband’s podcast, confirming their departure from Little People, Big World. Zach later made it sound as if the pair’s contracts have expired… and neither the couple itself nor network executives are interested in a renewal. “We’ve made it pretty clear,” added Zach on this same podcast. “They haven’t asked us back technically.” To their credit, both Zach and Tori were very candid about the basis for their departure, with the former stating simply a few weeks ago: “This last cycle was rough between the family, the farm deal, and we were done with it. We’ve moved on.” On the Season 25 finale of Little People, Big World, Zach Roloff describes where things stand with his father. (Image Credit: TLC) Zach was referring here to a feud with his dad, Matt Roloff, that dates back nearly two years now. The rivalry started back in May 2022 when Matt listed 14 acres of his Oregon farm for sale, angering Zach because the father of three felt as if his own dad didn’t give him a fair chance to purchase this property. Zach proceeded to trash him as a coward and a manipulator after Matt pushed back against this summary of events. The relationship hasn’t been close to the same since. On this season (series?!?) finale, Zach went ahead and doubled down on his hesitancy to forge a further relationship with his father. “When it comes to my dad like yeah, I don’t know dude, like that ship’s all sailed. Like there’s not much of a relationship. It’s just doing our own thing. Time maybe even it out, but everything will be healed. It’ll just — it’ll be different,” he said. Tori, Zach Roloff and their kids for TLC. (TLC) Overall, however, he seemed more focused on his immediate family: wife Tori and, specifically, his three young kids, all of whom were born with his same type of dwarfism. Our family’s going to stand out, our whole life. You know, Tori being my wife and I’m her husband, me being short, her being tall, and our kids being short,” Zach explained in a confessional. “Our family’s going to always probably stand out but it’s something you just kind of get used to. Sometimes it’s annoying. “We get sensitive sometimes, we make sure our kids are well-behaved because we do feel like we’re being watched.” Tori confessed that it can all be “hard” at times. Matt, Amy, Zach and Tori Roloff are featured in this TLC promotional photo. (TLC) It’s all been worth it for the husband and wife, of course. “Growing up on the farm, I spent a lot of time outdoors and I definitely want that same experience for our kids,” Zach lamented on air. “The [family] farm was part of my life and it’s not gonna be part of our kids’ lives the same way it was mine. No one’s holding grudges, no one’s intentionally not going to the farm. There’s just no interest. The kids don’t ask.” To mark the pair’s final scene on the series that made them famous and fairly rich, Tori noted: “I think that we’ve created a life here that I don’t think could have been created anywhere else. “I think we’ve found an independency and we’ve found just our own space. This is all ours and it has nothing to do with anyone else.” For the record, TLC has not yet revealed the fate of Little People, Big World.

In recent weeks, there’s been a great deal of speculation surrounding Kate Middleton’s cancer treatment. Kate revealed her diagnosis back in March, but we still have very few details about her condition. In fact, Kate seems to be taking a cue from her father-in-law, King Charles, who is also battling cancer. Both royals have thus far declined to offer any specifics with regard to the type or severity of their respective cancers. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, attend an event at Battersea Park on September 22, 2020, in London. (Photo by Jack Hill – WPA Pool/Getty Images) Fortunately, while little is known about the specifics of Kate’s condition, the updates we’ve heard thus far have indicated that the Princess of Wales is well on her way to a full recovery. Kate Middleton’s Cancer Treatment: What Do We Know? Again, the royals are being quite secretive about Kate’s illness and her course of treatment, so there’s very little that we can report with any certainty. Catherine, Princess of Wales, known as the Duchess of Rothesay when in Scotland, meets farmers at Brodieshill Farm, Moray, Scotland, to learn about efforts being made to better support the mental health and wellbeing of young people on November 02, 2023 in Moray, Scotland. (Photo by Jane Barlow – WPA Pool/Getty Images) But some reliable information has been revealed, including a new report from Hello! magazine, which claims that the crisis has only strengthened Kate’s relationship with her husband, Prince William. “It has been tough on both of them, not least as parents, as they try to reconcile their children’s mental wellbeing and the seriousness of her diagnosis,” journalist and royal expert Robert Jobson tells the outlet. “But there is no question that William has been Catherine’s rock. He is the constant in her life, and she is at the heart of his.” Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge watch from the Royal Box as Novak Djokovic of Serbia wins against Jannik Sinner of Italy during their Men’s Singles Quarter Final match on day nine of The Championships Wimbledon 2022 at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 05, 2022 in London, England. (Photo by Julian Finney/Getty Images) Jobson notes that William and Kate’s 13th wedding anniversary is coming up next week. And he believes that this one will be especially meaningful as a result of everything that the Prince and Princess of Wales have endured in the past year. “Their forthcoming anniversary is a testament to not only their love, but also their unity. I’m sure they’ll acknowledge their journey, knowing that their strength lies in being together,” Jobson said.

(Photo by David Rowland – Pool/Getty Images) “The ups and downs they have weathered together have cemented their bond, which is now unshakeable.” Kate Puts on a Brave Face For Her Kids Other reports have indicated that Kate’s main focus these days is maintaining a sense of normalcy for her kids. “Catherine has done her best to stick to a routine for the sake of the children,” Jobson said. “She and William know the importance of taking each day as it comes.” Prince William, Prince of Wales, Prince Louis of Wales, Catherine, Princess of Wales , Princess Charlotte of Wales and Prince George of Wales on the Buckingham Palace balcony during Trooping the Colour on June 17, 2023 in London, England. (Photo by Chris Jackson/Getty Images) Earlier this week, Kate hosted a private birthday party for Prince Louis, who turned six. Insiders said that it was not as lavish an affair as the Waleses usually host for their kids’ birthdays. But the fact that Kate Middleton is undergoing cancer treatment and still throwing birthday parties for her kids should be enough to put her in the running for Mother of the Year. We’ll have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Her name is Miss Cleocatra, but who is hiding underneath all that bling on the Masked Singer this season? The competition is fierce on the popular reality series for season 11, with many already choosing favorites, like Goldfish and Lovebird. On the second episode of the season, fans were introduced the elegant Miss Cleocatra, along with other masked contestants like The Beets and frontrunner Gumball. Of course, the fun of watching is trying to figure out who could be behind the mask – so let’s discuss some guesses! Cleocatra on THE MASKED SINGER “Wizard of Oz Night” episode (Michael Becker / FOX. ©2024 FOX Media LLC.) Who Is Miss Cleocatra on ‘The Masked Singer’? “Time to unleash the claws! Meow, baby!” That’s how Miss Cleocatra introduced herself in her costume debut video – and what a debut it was! This costume is perhaps one of the most stunning ever to grace the Masked Singer stage. She is a golden cat dressed like the most Egyptian royal of all, Cleopatra. Her costume includes a bejeweled headpiece, a jade and gold body suit, and fabulous cape to twirl along with when she performs. In short, the costume is made for a diva, and the likelihood that a diva is inside is pretty good. Her performance on her debut episode solidified her queen status. Case in point, she was carried in by an army of shirtless man servants! Does get much better than that! Then, she belted out a sultry rendition of Lena Horne classic “Stormy Weather”, which got the entire the entire crowd on their feet! In her next episode, she gave a Broadway belt to the En Vouge smash “Free Your Mind” on Girl Group night. While the judges have their own guesses, fans think they cracked the code on Miss Cleocatra’s identity without their input! Who Is Miss Cleocatra? Hints, Clues & Guesses To be honest, there have been a lot of incredible clues to lead fans to exactly who is under the mask. Miss Cleocatra revealed, “I’ve already worked my magic on an Emmy Award-winning show.” While that really could’ve applied to a multitude of people, it narrows down the field dramatically. And we have a sneaking suspicion that it’s… Jenifer Lewis Jenifer Lewis attends her Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Ceremony at Hollywood Walk of Fame on July 15, 2022 in Los Angeles, California. ((Photo by Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images)) The voice, the sass, the LEG RAISE! The most solid guess for the identity of this star is the incomparable Jenifer Lewis. We obviously can’t be 100% certain, but it feels like if it’s not Jenifer Lewis, it really SHOULD BE! However, some fans do have other guesses. They’re wrong, but all the same, we’ll hear them out! Paula Abdul Paula Abdul attends the World Premiere of Warner Bros.’ “The Color Purple” in Los Angeles, California. ((Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images)) While she’s going through a fairly messy legal battle at the moment, Paula Abdul is no stranger to the Masked family. As a former judge on The Masked Dancer, competing as Miss Cleocatra would be such a full circle moment for her. Plus, it’s clear Miss Cleo has some moves and Paula is known for her dancing! Sabrina Bryan Sabrina Bryan arrives to the 2013 Radio Disney Music Awards ((Photo by Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images)) You gotta strut like you mean it, if you’re a former Cheetah Girl, and Miss Cleo sure knows how to make an entrance! Because of that – and the fact that other former Cheetah Girls have been huge hits on the show to date – we feel like it could be Sabrina flexing her claws on the show. She knows something about being a fierce kitty! And remember, both Adrienne Bailon-Houghton and Raven Symone competed on the show in season 2 (the Flamingo and Black Widow, respectively.) Let’s give the other Cheetahs a turn! ‘Masked Singer’: Who Is Miss Cleocatra? was originally published on The Hollywood Gossip. View the full article

Tammy Slaton is flaunting her brand new figure. In recent months, Tammy Slaton has showed off her extreme weight loss on social media. As she continues her life-changing transformation, she’s better able to travel and live life as she chooses. Ahead of a girls trip with a friend, Tammy’s giving followers an update on her progress. Tammy Slaton talks here to her late husband on 1000-Lb Sisters (Image Credit: TLC) Haley Michelle and Tammy Slaton are taking a girls trip On Tuesday, April 23, 1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton took to Instagram to show off her new look. And she was not alone. While apparently shopping in a grocery store on an aisle with juice and other goods, Tammy posed alongside her friend, Haley Michelle. “Getting some groceries before our girl’s trip,” both Tammy and Haley captioned the photo. They jointly posted it to Instagram. The comments section, of course, overflowed with praise. Primarily for Tammy (Haley has a large following, but significantly more on TikTok than on Instagram), as fans find her increased mobility to be very encouraging. Commenters had a lot to say, noting that they feel “amazed,” how “fabulous” Tammy looks, and praising her tattoo. Is Tammy Slaton’s friend ‘using’ her for social media clout? Most of Tammy’s followers know her from 1000-lb Sisters. As a result, Haley is a less familiar figure. To some Instagram users, it feels like she suddenly “appeared” in Tammy’s photos. Some of these followers have expressed concerns. Is someone “using” her for social media clout? “Tammy and I are friends. And I have over 2 million followers on TikTok,” Haley wrote in an Instagram reply. “I don’t need to use her for anything. We are good friends and I love her.” Neither Tammy nor Haley shared the location of their trip. And that’s for the best. At almost any level of fame, there’s a potential for one fixated “fan” to show up inappropriately. Even if they aren’t dangerous, it’s enough to ruin a getaway. Similarly, though fans have already heard that 1000-lb Sisters Season 6 began filming in early 2024, it’s often a guessing game as to whether Tammy’s adventures will show up on TLC. We should all keep in mind that Tammy deserves time to herself to spend with friends. In these moments, she can choose what becomes public — like Instagram selfies — and what does not. Reality TV crews don’t work that way. Tammy Slaton cries here over the death of husband Caleb Willingham. (Image Credit: TLC) Fans are happy that Tammy is happy Tammy Slaton has been through a lot — including the death of her husband. Season 5’s finale showed his funeral, and viewers felt for Tammy in this painful moment. She has also shed a tremendous amount of weight. Tammy, who weighted about 700 pounds when the series premiered, dropped 150 pounds for her bariatric surgery in 2023. Since then, she has grown dramatically slim. Some trolls have left cruel comments about her extra skin (an inevitable side effect of rapid weight loss). But most fans aim to be encouraging as Tammy adjusts to a new reality.

A former employee is suing Megan Thee Stallion, describing a slew of labor violations. Megan Thee Stallion is a beloved star, a talented performer, the victim of a horrific crime, and everyone’s celebrity crush. But according to a cameraman who previously worked for her, she was responsible for a toxic workplace culture of harassment. The lawsuit against the rapper cites nine labor code violations, including harassment and hostile work environments. But who is Emilio Garcia? Megan Thee Stallion attends the 2024 Planned Parenthood Of Greater New York Gala on April 16, 2024. (Photo Credit: Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images) Emilio Garcia worked for Megan Thee Stallion from 2018 until 2023 On Tuesday, April 23, Emilio Garcia filed a legal complaint against Megan Thee Stallion and her companies in Los Angeles Superior Court, The Hollywood Reporter confirms. Megan, born Megan Pete, has Megan Thee Stallion Entertainment, Inc. and Hot Girl Touring, LLC. Jay-Z founded Roc Nation. These companies are named alongside Stallion in the lawsuit. The allegations within the lawsuit range from embarrassing mishaps that can (but should not) happen in the entertainment industry to body-shaming harassment and issues of payment and retaliation.

(Photo Credit: Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy) Please don’t have sex in front of your employees According to Garcia’s allegations, Stallion once had sex in a moving car while on tour in Spain in June of 2022. Garcia describes being in the car at the time, and feeling “was embarrassed, mortified and offended throughout the whole ordeal.” Due to the circumstances (being in a moving vehicle), he could not simply leave. The next day, Garcia recalls, Stallion asked him whether he had been in the car. Apparently, she hadn’t realized at the time. After he confirmed that he had been, Stallion allegedly instructed him: “Don’t ever discuss what you saw.” Megan Thee Stallion attends the “Mean Girls” premiere at AMC Lincoln Square Theater on January 08, 2024. (Photo Credit: Arturo Holmes/Getty Images) The lawsuit accuses Megan Thee Stallion of body-shaming and harassment Where the previous incident sounds like an embarrassing mishap for them both, it gets much worse. Garcia alleges that Stallion chastised him for his body size, calling him a “fat bitch” and instructing him to “spit your food out.” That would be absolutely reprehensible under any circumstances — but, coming from an employer, it’s much worse. Again, while allegedly having sex in front of an employee is inappropriate, it sounds like an accident. The sort of thing can (but should not) happen when people are traveling together for extended periods of time. The alleged body-shaming, however, is truly inexcusable. Then there is the matter of pay According to Garcia, his role was misclassified, which deprived him of healthcare and overtime pay. Additionally, he reports not having breaks for rests or meals while working as Stallion’s personal photographer. Garcia’s lawsuit describes how, in August of 2022, the CEO of Roc Nation changed his compensation structure. Instead of receiving a $4,000 monthly rate, he received pay-per-task. Essentially, this meant that he was receiving less pay for the same work — all thanks to employer jargon and a few strokes of a pen. This sort of horror happens in all sorts of industries. While it’s easy to say that Garcia could have simply quit and gotten a new job that would pay him like a human being, that’s often easier said than done. (Plus, one imagines that he hoped that things would improve) Megan Thee Stallion attends 2023 GQ Men of the Year at Bar Marmont on November 16, 2023. (Photo Credit: Frazer Harrison/Getty Images) Garcia was on duty at all times, his lawsuit describes Megan Thee Stallion allegedly instructed him that he could not work for anyone else. And, as her personal photographer, he would have to be on standby at all times while on tour. That’s the description of a full-time job that already wasn’t paying him enough, and then switched to paying him less. Garcia says that the 2023 termination of his contract was retaliation for him voicing complaints about harassment and improper compensation. “Plaintiff grapples with mounting anxiety, depression, and physical distress stemming from the toxic work environment, compounded by the trauma of unpaid work,” the lawsuit asserts.

(Photo Credit: Catherine Powell/Getty Images for MTV) The attorney for Megan Thee Stallion has issued a response “This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her,” attorney Alex Spiro claimed to The Hollywood Reporter. “We will deal with this in court.” Spiro has worked extensively for Roc Nation and Jay-Z for years. The salacious details of the lawsuit do appear embarrassing. But then, the alleged incident was likely embarrassing for Garcia. If the rest is true, however, then Megan The Stallion’s wrongdoing goes well beyond a spicy car ride hookup in Spain.

Earlier this month, Jill Duggar shared the devastating news of the stillbirth of her daughter Isla Marie. Now, the former reality star has invited fans to join in her grieving process by sharing photos from Isla’s funeral. On Tuesday, Jill and husband Derick Dillard hosted a memorial service for Isla at their church. A photo carousel on Jill’s Instagram page featured a series of heartbreaking images, including a box containing Isla’s remains and a collection of books her parents had hoped to share with her. Jill Duggar and Derrick Dillard speak here as part of a documentary on their family. (Prime Video) Jill Duggar Shares Details of Daughter’s Funeral “Isla Marie, our baby girl. We will love you forever & hold you in our hearts until we hold you in heaven,” Jill captioned the post. The Dillards also shared a photo of a program from Isla’s service. A quote reading, “Planted on earth to bloom in heaven” was printed on the cover. The couple later revealed the origin of the baby girls’ name, revealing that Isla means “devoted to God,” while Marie means “wished for child and beloved.” Jill and Derick shared the news of Isla’s stillbirth back on April 13. Fans had not previously known that Jill was pregnant, so the news of her miscarriage came as quite a shock. Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard film a confessional segment for TLC early in their marriage. (Image Credit: TLC) A Devastating Announcement “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the stillbirth of our beautiful baby girl, Isla Marie Dillard,” the Dillards wrote on Instagram. “Jill was 4 months pregnant (due in August) when we found out that our baby died in utero. From the moment we found out we were pregnant, we couldn’t wait to meet our baby,” Jill and Derick continued. Jill Duggar tells her story during an appearance in a documentary about her family. (Photo Credit: Amazon Studios) “Isla was much loved from the start, and her 3 big brothers were so excited to introduce her to their world. We appreciate your prayers as we continue to grieve and heal from the loss of our little Isla Marie.” Sadly, this was not Jill’s first miscarriage. In October of 2021, Jill announced that she had lost a baby named River Bliss. On the “Shiny Happy People” documentary, Jill Duggar tried to convey the complex emotions that she still feels towards her horrible parents. Husband Derick Dillard was by her side. (Image Credit: Amazon Prime) Just five months later, however, Jill announced that she was pregnant once again. And in July of 2022, Jill welcomed her third child, a boy named Freddy. It’s unclear at this time if Jill and Derick are planning to continue expanding their family. The Duggars’ practice of holding funerals for children who were delivered stillborn is a controversial one, but the grieving process is different for everyone, and we encourage Jill and Derick to mourn however they see fit. Our thoughts go out to the entire Duggar family during this enormously difficult time.

How times have changed, celebrity gossip fans. Years ago, Taylor Swift asked to be left alone after Kanye West released a track that trashed her as a “bitch” and Kim Kardashian later defended her then-husband by claiming Swift had approved the use of this insult. Such a claim was eventually debunked. “I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009,” Swift said in July 2016. Kim Kardashian attends the 10th Annual Breakthrough Prize Ceremony at Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on April 13, 2024 in Los Angeles. (Photo by Kevin Winter/Getty Images) Now? Kardashian can relate to her long-time rival. A few days ago, Swift released her brand new studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” which includes a single titled “thanK you aIMee.” Take a close look at the letters capitalized in that title and you’ll they spell KIM. The lyrics than make not-so-subtle references to the reality star, as Taylor sings at various points: I don’t think you’ve changed much and so I changed your name and any real defining clues.” Comparing Kardashian (we assume) to a bully, Taylor describes this individual as a “bronze spray-tanned statue” in her hometown that “threatens to push me down the stairs at our school,” but also as someone who helped her “heal” and become strong. Kim Kardashian attends the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on March 10, 2024 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images) Neither Swift nor Kardashian has directly addressed this track and the words within it. However, an insider tells People Magazine that Kim is the one who would now like to be removed from this ongoing narrative. “She’s over it and thinks Taylor should move on,” the source says to this outlet. Kardashian “doesn’t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it,” the magazine adds. “It’s been literally years.” Kim Kardashian poses as she arrives for the presentation of creations by Balenciaga for the Women Ready-to-wear Fall-Winter 2024/2025 collection as part of the Paris Fashion Week, in Paris on March 3, 2024. (Photo by JULIEN DE ROSA/AFP via Getty Images) In some sense, Kim has been forced to come around on Swift because the former’s daughter is a huge fan of the singer; Kardashian has shared many videos of North West belting out Taylor Swift songs. Which is simply the sweetest possible revenge for Swift. The mother of four has lost over 100,000 followers since Taylor dragged her in this song, too. In the chorus of “thanK you aIMee,” Swift sings: All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’/And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel/Screamed ‘F— you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’/But I can’t forget the way you made me heal. Kim Kardashian arrives at the GQ Men of the Year Party 2023 at Bar Marmont on November 16, 2023 in Los Angeles. (Photo by Phillip Faraone/Getty Images for GQ) In 2019, Kardashian alleged that she, Swift and West had “all moved on” from the feud during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live. But in a rare interview, Swift appeared to deny any such reparation of the relationship. “It would be nice if we could get an apology from people who bully us,” she told Elle, seemingly referencing the illegally recorded phone call and subsequent mention in West’s rap song. “But maybe all I’ll ever get is the satisfaction of knowing I could survive it, and thrive in spite of it.” Thrive, Taylor Swift most definitely has done.

Kanye West announced that his ideal threesome would include Michelle Obama. A lot of people feel very uncomfortable about Kanye West’s marriage to Bianca Censori. The vibes are off. Ye’s behavior does not always suggest a great deal of respect for his new wife. Or for other women, which now sadly includes former First Lady, Michelle Obama. Kanye West and Bianca Censori attend the Marni Fall/Winter 2024 Fashion Show during the Milan Fashion Week – Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 on February 23, 2024. (Photo Credit: Alessandro Levati/Getty Images for Marni Srl) Michelle Obama is part of Kanye West’s fantasy threesome, so he says On Monday, April 22, Kanye West was a guest on Justin Laboy’s podcast, The Download. You can see the video clip from the lengthy interview below. Laboy asked Ye who he would choose to join him and his wife, Bianca Censori, in the bedroom for a hypothetical threesome. Though Laboy began to suggest that he knew the answer, Kanye interrupted him — blurting out his answer. The answer? Former First Lady Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama attends the American Symphony New Orleans Premiere on December 07, 2023. (Photo Credit: Erika Goldring/Getty Images for Netflix) Kanye West’s answer was unexpected and wildly inappropriate. Which is very Kanye of him. It’s also unclear whether he meant what he said — which is similarly on-brand for Ye. Both men cracked up at Kanye’s answer, and Ye then announced: “Gotta f–k the President’s wife!” Is that a normal thing for a person to say? One should hope not. But Ye is notorious for incendiary, often spontaneous utterances that seem designed to shock. Kanye West says he would have a threesome with Michelle Obama. pic.twitter.com/b3xn4NDS9H — Page Six (@PageSix) April 23, 2024 Kanye West has an odd history with the Obamas Obviously, Ye is prone to say anything — from vicious antisemitism to confessing family secrets. However, he does have an odd connection to President Barack Obama. Infamously, Ye (at times) acted as an outspoken supporter of disgraced former president Donald Trump. But there was a time when he seemed somewhat friendly towards the 44th POTUS. Kanye West attends the “The Greatest Lie Ever Sold” Premiere Screening on October 12, 2022. (Photo Credit: Jason Davis/Getty Images for DailyWire+) Both the former President and Ye have roots in Chicago. However, Kanye’s history of making outlandish (and malicious) statements has alienated a lot of people. As for Ye and 44, that dates back to 2009. After Kanye’s infamous stunt at the VMAs in which he snatched the microphone from Taylor Swift much earlier in her career, President Obama accurately described him as a “jackass.” That, like a lot of other criticism, did not sit well with Kanye West. He soured on Obama after that, and further as Ye became politically radicalized in the worst ways imaginable.

(Photo Credit: Anthony Ghnassia/Getty Images For Balenciaga) He’s probably joking (probably) Truth be told, it’s entirely possible — even likely — that Kanye is joking. That he blurted out the most inappropriate name that came to mind in the moment. Sometimes, very funny people cross the line in an attempt to be funny. Other times, people with unmedicated mental illness say outlandish things because they have no filter. Both can be true of the same person at the same time. But we wish that Ye would make more ethical choices, be more considerate, and take care of his psychiatric needs. There are (still) people who love him and would like to see him behave himself.
