Jen Shah Fraud Case: U.S. Government Requests to Sentence 'RHOSLC' Star to 10 Years in Prison  Jen Shah finds herself in hot water after coming out in the courts as guilty.

Dwayne Johnson Is DC’s Latest Casualty As James Gunn Informs The Rock ‘Black Adam 2’ Is Cancelled The drama continues…for those hiding under a rock, it’s been announced that Warner Bros is essentially working to revamp the DC universe they created and have brought on James Gunn to do it. But as a result of said move, we're losing any potential of a Black Adam sequel, of Henry Cavill coming back as Superman and the entirety of the DC universe getting shaken up. We deep dive into the drama that has followed the Rock since the announcement since he had pushed for Henry Cavill's return and wanted a larger role with building out the DC world.

    Part 1 - Netflix's Harry and Meghan Docu Series Overview: A Sneak Peak Into Their Lives or a PR Failure in Authenticity?

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are at it again with the new release of their Netflix docuseries! The first three episodes walks us through how Harry and Meghan met, how they kept their relationship under the radar, Harry’s experience growing up, Meghan’s experience growing up, the official launch of their relationship, and what happened with the British media + the initial story on Meghan’s family drama. Though some called it boring and others (mainly Royal family lovers) ripped Harry and Meghan to shreds, Netflix has said it's been their best performing documentary launch within the first week of its launch. Did the first three episodes do its job in helping repair their image and tell their side of the story or was it a PR stunt wrapped up in poor execution? Join us this week as we debate (or rather argue about) the details and try to make it to the other side with our friendship in tact!

    Taylor Swift Is Facing Intense Backlash After It Was Announced That She’ll Take Part In An Interview With An Oscar-Winning Director To Discuss Their Experiences Of The Job Variety magazine has announced the lineup for their “directors on directors” special for 2022 - which, for those of you who aren’t familiar with this segment, it’s when 12 directors are paired up and get to interview each other about their careers - and Taylor Swift has been nominated as a “director” for her “all is well” music video. For those who are like, “so, who cares?” let’s be clear: she will be in the company of  James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez, and Sarah Polley and Francis Ford Coppola. Britney Spears’s Husband Revealed The Reason That She Chooses Not To Attend Public Events Anymore And Responded To Concerns Over Her Instagram Posts Earlier this week, after much speculation that something serious is going on with Britney, her IG was mysteriously deactivated, which then sent her fans into a spiral. Her husband responded in a series of posts on IG and Tiktok stating “I would never control someone that’s been controlled for 13+ years.” and Britney is taking a “break” from social media after finding it “traumatizing.” and accused her fans of making things more stressful on her by being “over protective”. He also said Britney chooses not to attend red carpet events due to wanting privacy as she hasn't had privacy since she’s a child.   Kanye West Shares First Song Since Antisemitic Interviews & Social Posts We all know Kanye has been in the news for all the wrong reasons lately. His antisemetic comments have even caused Elon Musk (who we all know is pro free speech etc etc) to block his twitter. We won’t rehash all the crazy shit he’s said and done over the last 3 months or so (listen to our BBQs for that!), but he’s just released a new song called “Someday we’ll all be free” and addresses his strained relationship with Kim, the tweet that got him canceled, etc… a line from the song: “Tweeted deathcon, now we past three, Nick Carter Allegedly Raped A 17-Year-Old Girl On A Backstreet Boys Tour Bus In 2001, A New Lawsuit Claims A BSB fan (Shannon Ruth) has filed a complaint against nick carter, stating that he forced her to give him a blowie and have sex with him on the tour bus after a concert 21 years ago. She’s also stated that he gave her HPV and is seeking punitive and compensatory damages. This isn’t the first time Nick’s been accused of sexual assault, for the record. He was accused back in 2017 by one of the singers from the girl group dream - but he maintains that the relationship was consensual.  Kathy Hilton Apologizes to Mariska Hargitay For Applying Lip Gloss During Her PCAs Speech During the people’s choice awards last week, Mariska Hargitay received the best tv drama star award and while she was giving her thank you speech, Kathy Hilton (who presented the award) casually applied lip gloss, totally overshadowing Mariska’s moment.  Hosted on Acast.

    Britney Spears says she'd 'die for' her estranged sons Sean Preston, 17, and Jayden, 16, in passionate Instagram post... after the boys expressed desire to reconcile with the singer despite having 'emotional trauma' For the last few weeks there have been rumors swirling about Britney spears. There’s been speculation for a while now that her IG is actually controlled by Sam and Jamie’s team - between the erratic pictures, captions, etc and it's led to a plethora of new conspiracy theories to develop. She's been posting photos of her in her old house - which she sold in June after her wedding to Sam. Then there was a weird bathtub post talking about how she loves to suck. Then there were the posts and videos of her in her grandma’s wedding veil and a nightgown. Then, on her birthday, she posted a tribute to Jamie-Lynn, who she openly has had a conflictual relationship with. Do we think it's Britney? Her team? Sam? Or is something else going on behind scenes? Netflix Releases First Trailer for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's New Docuseries Meghan Markle and Prince Harry signed a multi-year multi-million dollar deal with Netflix back in 2020 - and this week we finally got a glimpse into their first project they are delivering on… ironically, the same week both Prince William and Kate are in Boston for a visit!  Kim Kardashian and Kanye West reach divorce settlement Kim Kardashian and Kanye West married in 2014. After 7 years of marriage and 4 children, Kim filed for divorce in Feb 2021, citing irreconcilable differences. After almost 2 years of divorce proceedings - even though they had a prenup and kept most of their property separate (still dont get how Gisele and Tom did this shit in 4 weeks!), they are officially divorced and avoiding a trial which was set for Dec 14. While they will share custody of the kids, Kanye has been ordered to pay Kim $200,000 per month in child support, split the cost of security and school for the kids through college and are now free to go on their merry way. KANYE WEST MENTAL BREAKDOWN ON AIR ... Praises Hitler & Nazis We deep dive into Kayne's interview with Alex Jones on InfoWars, what he said (spoiler: it's LOTS of awful things) how he acted alongside Nick Fuentes and question whether or not it was really Kayne behind the mask.

    Who's the A*****e? The Duchess (Meghan Markle) or King Charles

    After Queen Elizabeth passed a couple of months ago (RIP!), Prince Charles automatically ascended the throne - but typically, the new monarch’s coronation doesn’t happen for around a year, out of respect for the former monarch. The shocking thing is King Charles’ coronation has been announced - and the date will be May 6, 2023. The reason this is full of drama is because this also happens to be Archie’s (his grandson) birthday and people are speculating that it’s a dig at Harry and Meghan, who haven’t exactly been model royals. This week we deep dive into the details and fight tooth and nail on who the a*****e here is: is it Meghan for having dug a hole with the royal family leading them to disregard the birthday of the king's grandson or is it King Charles for choosing royal pettiness and intentionally picking his coronation to overshadow his grandson?

Did Victoria cheat on Johnny with Gregg Grippo? Or was it all about a miscommunication on their “break”? Balenciaga S&M Ads For Kids Clothing Stirs Controversy Even Among Celebs Balenciaga is in some hot water as their latest campaign ads have caught some SERIOUS backlash and deservedly so as it depicts children holding tied up bears with BDSM oriented accessories. Some celebs have come out and denounced the brand for their ill choices involving children. Balenciaga apologized and stated that they plan on legally going after the “parties responsible for creating the set and including unapproved items”. We chat conspiracy theory, Balenciaga's need for accountability and the Kardashian family statement made. Kelly Rowland Doubled Down On Defending Chris Brown After His AMAs Win Kelly Rowland is doubling down on her actions during last week's AMAs when she accepted an award of behalf of Chris Brown. Is Kelly in the right? In the wrong? Does Chris Brown deserve grace or deserve to be cancelled? Kanye West Has Been Accused Of Showing Adidas Employees His Homemade Sex Tapes And “Explicit” Videos Of Kim Kardashian Former Yeezy and Adidas staffers and creative collaborators claim that he played pornography to staff in meetings, discussed porn and showed an intimate photograph of Kim Kardashian in job interviews, + showed an explicit video and photos of Kardashian as well as his own sex tapes to Yeezy team members. Kim Kardashian Asked Fans What They Want To See In “The Kardashians” Season 3 And She Probably Didn’t Expect To Get Dragged This Much As we all have collectively agreed upon - this season of the Kardashians has been an absolute SNOOZE FEST. It seems like word got back to Kim and her family so Kim decided to tweet out to her audience what they’d like to see and people lost their f*****g minds. Is the show getting cancelled?
