Billie Eilish just came out...or did she? In a cover story with Variety last month, the “What Was I Made For?” singer revealed that she’s attracted to women. This caused a big stir online, since she’s always been linked to guys and has even been accused of queerbaiting in the past. At Variety’s Hitmakers Event on Saturday, a reporter asked Billie if she meant to come out in the cover story. She laughed it off then, but now, she says Variety basically outed her. People online are divided. Some say Variety was outta line, while others think Billie had already outed herself and Variety deserves a pass.

Now - for the first time - Felicity is opening up about this chapter of her life, during which she ended up behind bars. And how she’s learned a hard lesson from the school of life.

No one keeps a secret like Paris Hilton. Back in January, Paris shocked the world with the news that - thanks to a surrogate - she was a first-time mom to a son named Phoenix. And it looks like Paris is “sliving” for her secrets, because she just shocked everyone (including her family) again on Thanksgiving when she and hubby Carter Reum announced that they’ve added London to Paris’s mom-tinerary. That’s the name of her second surprise baby in less than a year! We can’t wait to see what surprises this master of the baby-bomb has in store for us all!

Ready for another royal mess? You got it! Remember that interview Meghan Markle did in 2021 where she told Oprah that some members of the royal family had conversations about her unborn son’s skin color? Well, thanks to a bizarre publishing screwup in the Netherlands, we now know who she was referring to. Dutch publishers say they were ordered to halt sales on the new book, “Endgame” after it had already hit bookshelves because the names of those two prominent royals were supposed to be redacted - just like they were everywhere else in the world. But just like when you post something and try to delete it later - the damage is done. And now, thanks to Piers Morgan, the world knows who made the racially charged comments.

Emily Ratajkowski has got herself a plus-sized problem. Just a few days ago, the supermodel/multi-hyphenate posted pictures from her photoshoot with French mag Le Monde…and that’s when sh*t hit the fan. In one of the pics, Emily poses in plus-sized pants and points out the extra room. Not a good look for EmRata, who has previously advocated for body positivity. Now people are coming for her online and accusing her of being fatphobic. So what’s the skinny here? Does she deserve the heat, or is this being blown out of proportion?

Diddy is in more hot water. Earlier this month, his ex-girlfriend, singer Cassie, filed a lawsuit with some disturbing claims of abuse and sexual assault. But, in a surprising turn of events, the case was settled out of court just one day later. But this was not the end of Diddy’s legal troubles. On the same day - and just one week after Cassie’s filing - two new women came forward with lawsuits of their own, alleging that Diddy sexually assaulted them as well some 30 years ago. Diddy and his team adamantly deny these claims against the self-proclaimed “Bad Boy,” but we’ll have to wait and see whether this time he winds up in court.
