Teen Mom 2: 19 Things You Don"t Know About The Moms!
Let"s be real: Teen Mom 2 is one of the best reality shows ever.
It"s got endless drama. It"s got love, heartbreak, drugs, crime, and so much pregnancy — what"s not to love?!

Man Gets Donald Trump "Pussy" Tattoo, Fiancee Hates It
Jordan Murphy is a chef who lives in England.
But that’s not what the 21-year old is now known as on the Internet.
He’s known as The Idiot Who Didn’t Just Get a Donald Trump Tattoo on His Leg, But the Idiot Who Got a Donald Trump PUSSY Tattoo on His Leg.
He looks pretty normal, right?
But Murphy told The Sun that he thought it would be a “fun” idea to pay 40 pounds (about 50 U.S. dollars) in order to get a giant etching of the President of the United States on his leg.
He wasn’t content with a mere drawing that resembled Trump, however.
Murphy decided on a version of Trump’s face…
… Along with the words “Grab Her By The Pussy,” which Trump, of course, uttered to Billy Bush in a recording from 2005 that went viral this fall and somehow did NOT lead to the end of his candidacy.
What inspired this idea?
Murphy says he saw the drawing (by friend and tattoo artist Luke Beddows) and simply had to have it on his person.
“It’s just a bit of fun. People generally find it hilarious,” Murphy explains to The Sun. “I know it’s controversial, but it doesn’t mean I agree with his views.”
We guess it doesn’t have to mean that, no.
But have fun making this clear to everyone who sees your leg. For the rest of your life.
“I also have a pig’s head on me, but that doesn’t make me a Satanist. I just think the art is really cool,” Murphy, who has over 10 tattoos across his body, added.
However, while Jordan is apparently cool with this Trump quote and likeness, someone pretty close to his heart has a problem with it.
“My fiancée hates it, though,” he says.
“When I saw Luke’s drawing and said I was thinking about getting it, she told me not to do it. At first I told her it was a lot smaller than it actually is, so when she saw it for real she was fuming.”
As far as we know, the wedding is still on, despite this disagreement.
How have friends reacted?
They’re pretty “laid back” about the tattoo, Murphy says, while Beddows tells the newspaper that he purposely gave Trump a double-chin to make the drawing “stand out.”
We’re pretty sure it would have stood out regardless.
But whatever.
Like Beddows himself said to The Sun, to “each [his] own.”

Blac Chyna: Cashing In On Dream Kardashian ALREADY?!
From the moment the world learned that Blac Chyna was dating Rob Kardashian, it was rumored that the relationship was nothing more than an act of supreme gold-digging.
The most cynical theorists maintained that Blac was after far more than just Rob’s money.
Many believed both then and now that she was playing the long con – pursuing the wealth and fame that she could attain only by acquiring Rob’s iconic last name for herself.
These days it’s hard to see the relationship as anything other than a semi-failed cash-grab executed by Blac.
She even filed papers to change her name to Angela Kardashian, despite the fact that she and Rob never reached the point of setting a wedding date.
But Blac hasn’t given up on her efforts to cash in on the Kard clan’s lucrative moniker.
After all, she now has ties to the family that are more powerful than a marriage certificate.
We’re talking, of course, about Blac and Rob’s daughter, Dream Kardashian.
Dream is only four months old, but when you’re born to two parents who make their bucks off social media, you start earning from day one.
According to a new report published by TMZ, Blac stopped by a government buikding in Los Angeles yesterday to ensure that both of her kids are legally allowed to start bringing in the bucks.
It was initially thought that Blac went to the office to settle a legal beef.
(She’s reportedly had problems with both of her baby daddies in recent weeks, and sources say Tyga is behind on child support payments.)
But now the site’s sources are claiming that Blac was actually securing work permits Dream and 4-year-old King Cairo.
Yes, at 4 months and 4 years old respectively, Blac’s kids can now legally be paid for on-camera appearances in the state of California.
It may sound a bit icky, but it’s sort of a necessity.
After all, they’ll almost certainly continue to make occasional appearances on Kardashian-related reality shows, and you can’t blame Blac for making sure her kids get paid.
But you can still blame her for getting engaged to and impregnated by a guy because his sisters are famous.
That part is still super gross and weird.

Kailyn Lowry Baby Daddy Bombshell: Who is It NOT?
Kailyn Lowry might be ready to pop.
But she still isn’t ready to reveal the name of the man who fathered her third child.
Ever since the Teen Mom 2 star surprised fans via a blog entry that confirmed she was pregnant with yet another child, Internet users from coast to coast have asked the same thing…
… WHO IS KAILYN LOWRY’S BABY DADDY?
To date, the candidates appear to be following individuals, with odds made up by The Hollywood Gossip in parenthesis:
- Tyler Hill (15-1). A former classmate of Lowry’s at Delaware State University, little is known about Hill, other than the fact that he was rumored to have slept with Lowry back when she was married to Javi Marroquin.
According to his Instagram page, Tyler is an “aspiring actor/director/producer” and also a “college grad.”
- JC Cueva (10-1). A producer on Teen Mom 2, Cueva would absolutely be fired if Kailyn confirmed the two slept together, let alone that he knocked her up. This would explain why Lowry has been so silent on the topic.
But Kailyn having the child of a Teen Mom 2 producer would simply be too good and too juicy to be true. We can’t let ourselves think this is really a possibilitiy.
- Chris Lopez (5-1). A source claims that Kailyn is expecting the baby of a long-time “friend,” and Lopez fits this bill. Fans grew suspicious of him as the baby daddy after Lopez Tweeted about his “miracle child.
The Tweet has since been deleted, but not before Kailyn acknowledged the message via a “Favorite.”
Now, though, a Twitter user named Traci Ansley has raised another option.
She’s contacted Lowry to ask if some dude named “Cabrell” is responsible for the son or daughter growing in her womb?
And Kailyn wasted no time in setting this record straight, replying as follows:
Our research indicates that Cabrell is another student at Delaware State University, the same school from which Lowry is slated to graduate this coming May.
She’ll probably give birth around this same time.
Kailyn is yet to reveal her due date and says she’s waiting to find out the baby’s gender until he or she enters the world.
But that doesn’t mean the reality star is remaining completely silent on the issue.
Just yesterday, she shared a few sonogram photos on Instagram, writing as a caption how she “can’t wait” to be a mother again.
At what point will we learn the identity of her latest baby daddy?
It’s hard to say.
We can rule out Jo Rivera, with whom Kailyn shares a seven-year old son named Isaac.
And we can definitely rule out Marroquin, with whom Kailyn shares a three-year old son named Lincoln.
“People are asking her daily, dying to find out the name of the daddy and the gender of the baby,” a source tells In Touch Weekly, adding:
“She is simply not ready to share that information. The news will likely come out at some point, because the cameras will probably be rolling again soon.”
Ah, yes. Cameras.
So if you watch Teen Mom 2 online or on television, you’ll at least learn the baby daddy’s name at some point.
We’ll do all we can to uncover this piece of information in the meantime, but at least we can take comfort in knowing the secret can’t remain secret forever.

Amber Portwood: Struggling with Weight Gain and Mental Illness?
Sometimes it seems like Amber Portwood just can’t catch a break.
Between her issues with addiction, the hard reality that comes with being a teen mom (and a Teen Mom), and, you know, Matt Baier, things have always looked kind of rough for her.
To add onto her pile of hardships, she’s also got a number of mental illnesses: she’s been open about her anxiety and her bipolar disorder, and more recently she’s been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
It’s a lot to deal with, and as Amber reveals in a new interview with Women’s Health, she doesn’t deal with it all that well at times.
She says that she spent a good part of 2015 losing weight that she’d steadily gained after getting sober, and she got down to 130 pounds, which was a good weight for her.
But then, in 2016, she found herself profoundly depressed, so much that Matt had to drag her out of bed. She went to see a psychiatrist, which is when she received the borderline personality diagnosis.
“When I got the diagnosis,” she says, “I wanted to keep it a secret. While everyone knew about my other diagnoses — I’ve had anxiety since I was a kid, for as long as I can remember — I guess it was tragic to think I had another mental disorder.”
For a while, Matt was the only person who knew, and he actually accompanied her to one of her appointments so her doctor could talk to him.
When Amber was told that she’d most likely be on medications to deal with her mental disorders for the rest of her life, she broke down, but she says Matt was there to hold her hand.
Matt Baier, doing something sweet and not completely creepy? The mind boggles.
Amber was put on some new medications, including a mood stabilizer. She says she’s happy with what she’s on because she feels “amazing and normal” now, and her meds aren’t ones she can get addicted to.
But when she started the meds, she got “cravings like crazy,” and she also got “very tired.”
And neither of those things are good for weight loss.
In that time, she gained back all the weight she’d worked so hard to lose months before. She tried a no-carb, no-sugar diet — the diet that helped her lose the weight in the first place — but it didn’t work for her.
As of now, she’s lost 10 pounds, and though there’s “extra pressure” to lose more weight for her wedding in October (gag), “I’m using that as motivation.”
The whole point of sharing her story, she says, is because so many medications for mental illnesses cause weight gain.
“For women who are suffering from mental health issues, I want them to know that other people are going through the same thing,” she explains, “and you don’t have to do this alone.”
You’re a gem, Amber. You really are.
Now drop Matt Baier and own it.
Tarek El Moussa: How Did He Get THAT Body?!?
Let’s face it:
We all knew Christina El Moussa was hot.
It’s why so many husbands out there are cool with their wives turning on Flip or Flip six times per week.
But Tarek El Moussa?!?
Did anyone expect to see this reality star whip off his shirt and reveal a six-pack that rivals Justin Bieber’s and shoulders that one could easily mistake for those of The Rock?
The controversial home renovator stunned fans this week when he unveiled a number of shirtless photos, flaunting lots of skin and even more muscles for the Internet to gawk over.
It’s pretty safe to assume that Tarek went public with these pictures in response to his estranged wife posting several bikini-clad images on social media just days prior.
One revenge body deserves another, right?
If Christina wants to taunt Tarek will all he’ll never tap again, then it’s only right for Tarek to respond in handsome kind, no?
Actually… no.
Tarek wrote a lengthy caption to the sexy snapshot above, explaining that he decided to share it with the world in the hopes that it would inspire fellow cancer survivors.
Back in 2014, Tarek was diagnosed with both testicular cancer and thyroid cancer.
“I shot this and was too embarrassed to share so I didn’t… I know my journey has inspired many people so I made the difficult decision to post,” wrote El Moussa about the rock-hard picture above.
He added:
“This is after battling 2 cancers and a debilitating back injury. My doctor said “You would probably never be able to lift weights again”… that motivated me to prove him wrong and get into the best shape of my life!!!
“Thank you to my trainer @quintin_tucker for all the hard work and motivation and @pyejirsa for the amazing photos.
“Remember….it’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.”
This is the second time of late that Tarek has addressed his past battles against cancer.
In mid-March, El Moussa posted a very different kind of photo online (below), one that was snapped during one of his lowest points in life.
“I thought I would share this with everyone… to truly understand how absolutely sick I was,” Tarek wrote about this third picture, continuing as follows:
“Look at this photo and look at my eyes, I was a skeleton.”
So… how did Tarek go from THAT to THIS? To what he looks like now?
Personal trainer Quintin Tucker says Tarek could barely walk and was in “a tortuous amount of pain” when the two met.
“The amount of motivation and fight Tarek had in the beginning is unmatched by any other client I have yet had and was paramount to his recovery,” Tucker tells E! News, adding:
“Session after session he would always say, ‘I’m going to be your biggest transformation, I’m going to get back into the best shape of my life,’ and he did.”
Tucker went on to detail Tarek’s workouts with the outlet, saying there was very little cardio involved; client and trainer mostly focused on high intensity weight lifting.
Tarek would occasionally fast, but mostly ate a low glycemic diet with a “moderate amount” of protein and healthy fats.
Tucker concludes by expressing awe for Tarek’s work ethic, but also for the HGTV star as a parent.
“I would drive up to his house in and would wait for him in his gym while he woke up and we would work out before [daughter] Taylor was awake,” Tucker tells E!.
“Occasionally she would wake up and run into the gym and begin lifting her mothers little 3 lb. weights. It was the cutest thing ever. They would would always hug and she would say, You’re my best friend dad.’
“I always respected what a great father Tarek was, above all else.”

Alex Rodriguez Breaks Silence on Jennifer Lopez; Are They Dating?
Alex Rodriguez ended his Major League Baseball career with 696 home runs.
But the controversial former All-Star has very clearly saved his most impressive round-tripper for retirement:
He confirmed on Friday that he has, indeed, circled the sexual bases with Jennifer Lopez.
Asked during an appearance on The View whether he’s dating the Shades of Blue actress, Rodriguez didn’t really beat around the bush or deny the influx of recent reports.
He responded as follows:
“We’ve been having a great time. She’s an amazing, amazing girl. One of the smartest human beings I’ve ever met and also an incredible mother.”
So there you have it.
A. Rod was left with almost no choice but to confirm this romance after he was spotted with Lopez at a spring training baseball game in Florida last weekend.
Prior to that outing, Lopez had shared an intimate photo of herself and Rodriguez in bed, only to quickly delete the Instagram image for some reason.
The retired Bronx Bomber, who now works as a baseball analyst for Fox, also joked that since Lopez is from the Bronx, she is undoubtedly a “big Yankees fan.”
Despite his huge success and global fame, Lopez has always insisted that she’s just a regular gal.
She remains Jenny from the Block, one might even say.
And Rodriguez himself came out and said this during his interview on The View.
“She just likes simple things,” A. Rod told the hosts. “I mean, she’s a very, very simple person. Loves family. Is a great sister. Is a great daughter.”
Also: She’s hot!!!!!
Rodriguez always came across like a pretty big tool during his baseball career, spouting cliches, displaying little personality, often lying and cheating and breaking drug rules.
And yet he’s dated Kate Hudson. And Torrie Wilson. And Cameron Diaz. And now Lopez.
That’s quite the run.
As always, Rodriguez still can’t compete with ex-teammate Derek Jeter and his resume of banging (Jessica Biel, Jessica Alba, Mariah Carey, Minka Kelly, Hannah Davis, etc.)… but still.
What the heck is drawing these beautiful women to Rodriguez?!?
We have no idea, but things between Rodriguez and Lopez seem pretty serious.
He even knows what J. Lo eats when she cheats on her diet, telling The View panelists that the star indulges in chocolate chip cookies and chocolate chip ice cream when she needs to satisfy her sweet tooth.
Lopez shares custody of nine-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony; the singer divorce in 2014.
Rodriguez, meanwhile, shares daughters Natasha, 12, and Ella, 8, with his ex-wife, Cynthia Scurtis; they were married for six years and split in 2008.
Do you think A. Rod and J. Lo will last?
Given their obvious nickname (J. Rod!), they appear to have a shot.

Luciana Chamone & Justin Bieber: Dating?!
Justin Bieber is currently taking a few days off from his South American tour.
But just because he’s not taking the stage for a few days, that doesn’t mean the Biebs isn’t giving any private performances, if ya know what we mean.
For those of you who aren’t big on awkwardly heavy-handed innuendo, we’re implying that Justin’s been gettin’ it in with a new lady friend during his time south of the Equator:
Her name is Luciana Chamone, and according to those who have been monitoring Bieber’s time abroad, she’s been spending a lot of time with the singer.
Not much is known about Luciana other than the fact that she was a big time Belieber even before spending she became the recipient of his affections.
A quick scan of Luciana’s social media profiles proves that she spends a lot of time at the beach and basically lives in a bikini.
It’s unknown how serious the relationship between Justin and Luciana is, or even if they’re in a relationship at all.
Luciana has been spotted traveling with Justin in the backseat of several chauffeured vehicles, band the pair is often joined by Luciana’s BFF, Marina Pumar.
Naturally, a lot of conclusions have been drawn about the frequent presence of a third party, but we’ll leave that one alone for now.
The Biebs hasn’t been getting along well with his fans lately, and spending his downtime with Luciana instead of meeting and greeting with Brazilian Beliebers probably won’t do him many favors, but what are ya gonna do?
Justin is merely enjoying one of the many perks of international pop stardom.
Is there any future between Justin and Luciana?
Almost certainly not, and that’s part of the point.
Eventually, Justin will return to the States.
He’ll probably even get back together with Selena Gomez a few more times.
But right now, he’s fully enjoying a Lost In Translation moment with Luciana (and probably one or more of her friends).
Except instead of moping around Tokyo to a twee indie soundtrack. Justin is having hotel group sex in Brazil.
We didn’t think it was possible to out-cool Bill Murray, but Justin may have won this round.
You’ll get him next time, Bill.

Brad Pitt: Losing Weight, Worrying Fans Following Divorce
It’s been seven months since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, and despite some turbulent months, sources close to Pitt say the actor is holding up as well as can be expected.
But many fans remain concerned about Brad’s emotional health in the wake of one of the most high-profile breakups in Hollywood history.
Much of the concern has to do with rumors surrounding Pitt’s recent weight loss.
After Brad skipped the Oscars last month, there were reports that part of the reason he decided to lay low throughout much of awards season is that he’d shed some serious pounds in recent months.
Now, Radar Online is reporting that fans who saw Brad out and about in Los Angeles recently were shocked by the screen icon’s gaunt appearance.
“To be honest, I wasn’t even sure that it was him,” one onlooker tells the site. “He looked so thin.”
“I was shocked at the sight of him really,” says another.
Apparently fans were surprised not only by Brad’s weight loss, but also by what they interpreted as his downbeat demeanor:
“I thought that he looked really solemn,” one witness says.
“Also the way he was walking, he was kind of skulking, just an odd mysterious shuffling. It didn’t seem like he was happy, kind of down on his luck and upset.”
Though Pitt maintained a low profile and was rumored to be struggling with severe depression in the early days of his divorce, those closest to the actor say there’s been an upswing in his mood recently.
Insiders say the turnaround is due in part to the fact that Brad and Angelina are on speaking terms again after several months of communicating only through their lawyers.
Early on, Pitt and Jolie’s custody agreement had Brad seeing the kids only in supervised visitations that were scheduled by Angelina.
Now, they’ve reportedly reached an agreement that’s more amenable to both parties.
So it’s strange that rumors about Pitt losing a dramatic amount of weight are surfacing just as thigs seem to be leveling out in her personal life.
Of course, it’s possibly Pitt may be trimming down for a role.
The actor has always kept a tight lid on his personal life and he seems to be more secretive than ever as a newly single man.

Keshia Knight Pulliam: Ed Hartwell"s Mistress Tried to Make Me Lose My Baby!
It’s safe to say that Keshia Knight Pulliam has gone through enough drama in the last year to last a lifetime.
A million lifetimes, probably.
Keshia got married to former NFL player Ed Hartwell on January 1st, 2016. They shared a few months of what we assume was marital bliss — at the very least, things were fine.
Then, that July, she announced that she was expecting her first child with Ed. Adorable, right?
Not so much, because just a few days later, Ed filed for divorce. Not only that, but he demanded a paternity test for Keshia’s unborn child.
The implication for the paternity test, of course, was that he was concerned she’d been cheating on him.
He said as much in an interview, claiming that during their marriage, she’d been gone from home a lot, staying out all night and going out of town, so he wanted to “make sure” he was the father.
In turn, she revealed that he was the one who cheated on her, and that she was ready to leave him because of it when she found out she was pregnant.
What a mess, right? But wait, it gets worse!
Though Keshia was offended by Ed’s request for a paternity test, she agreed to it — and surprise, he was the father!
She gave birth to their baby, a sweet little girl named Ella Grace, in January, so the obvious next step is a custody battle.
And that’s where we are now.
Keshia and Ed are in the middle of a court battle for the ages, and she filed new papers this week in which she claimed that Ed had a girlfriend during their marriage.
Not only that — the girlfriend was allegedly conspiring somehow to force a miscarriage on her!
Keshia claims that a mutual friend of the former couple came forward to tell her that Ed’s mistress was upset that his wife had become pregnant, so she “wanted to get something that would cause someone to have a miscarriage.”
Like some kind of pill, perhaps? A magic potion? The help of a powerful dark sorcerer?
It’s hard to say, but, interestingly enough, this isn’t the first time Keshia’s accused someone of trying to force her to have a miscarriage.
According to court documents she filed back in August, she believed that Ed’s “deep-seated rage and uncontrollable anger” was stressful to her, and though he knew it, he continued to act out.
Apparently hoping that the stress would cause Keshia to miscarry?
It’s hard to say.
But what’s not hard to say is that we feel just a boatload of pity for that poor, precious little baby girl for having to live with all of this.
