Kate Upton: Acting like a F-cking Diva Over Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover?

Kate Upton is as beautiful as it gets on the outside.

According to a bombshell new report, however, the voluptuous model is dark and conniving and kind of evil on the inside.

Allow us to explain in further, alleged detail…

On Monday, February 13, Sports Illustrated will release its annual Swimsuit Edition, likely prepared to deal with the backlash that accompanies this rollout on a yearly basis.

But while the publication is used to dealing with complaints from customers, The New York Post writes that SI was forced to deal with an unexpected internal problem while lining up sexy photos for the issue this time aroun.

And that problem centered around Upton, her large breasts and her even bigger ego.

Just like last year, the 2017 version of the Swimsuit edition is expected to feature three covers: on that stars Serena Williams, one that stars 63-year-old model Christie Brinkley and one that stars Upton.

(In 2016, the three covers depicted Ashley Graham, Hailey Clauson and Ronda Rousey in body paint and/or bikinis.)

Well… one that maybe stars Upton.

An insider tells Page Six that Upton stirred up a lot of “drama” throughout her bathing suit-based suit.

“Kate demanded that if she did the shoot, that she absolutely must get the cover,” the newspaper writes, adding of Upton:

“She also had a list of photographers and hair and makeup people she would only work with.”

Those latter demands are probably not unusual for a celebrity of Upton’s stature.

But Upton has already appeared on the Sports Illustrated cover in 2012 and 2013 and those close to this situation say he attitude and behavior have been anything but appropriate.

“She was being a big f -cking diva,” an insider claims. “She’s thinks she’s better than everyone because she’s an actress.”

Wait… she is?!?

The busty blonde did appear in The Other Woman three years ago, opposite Leslie Mann and Cameron Diaz.

But the comedy wasn’t exactly embraced by movie critics.

She has three films in post-production at the moment, including one directed by William H. Macy and another by James Franco.

In 2015, Upton – who is engaged to Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander – was the subject of a New York Post article discussing whether her “ego is ruining her career.”

One modeling industry veteran said that her “demands became ridiculous.”

We can’t wait to see how Upton responds to this uproar.

As we’ve seen in the past, Upton is unafraid to speak her mind.

The only real move that Upton ought to take here is to stage some kind of coup.

Screw Sports Illustrated, right?!?

Why not just pose for a bunch of naked photos on your own and release them on Instagram for all to see?

We see no other option for you to take, Kate. Do it. Do it. Do it RIGHT NOW.

Amy Duggar to Dillon King: Stop Acting Like a Rapist!

Amy Duggar and Dillon King painted a picture of their relationship on Friday.

And it wasn’t very pretty.

The couple’s romantic woes were thrown into the stark spotlight on the latest episode of Marriage Boot Camp, which opened with the 19 Kids and Counting alum and her husband talking behind closed bedroom doors.

“I swear, if that’s how you talk, I don’t know if this is going to work,” Duggar threatened, previewing the sort of problems that would soon come into even greater focus.

The following day, each half of all the couples involved on the show were tasked with an exercise in which they decided (as a pair) which one was more at fault for certain issues in their relationships.

Sounds totally healthy and like there’s no chance this exercise will backfire in any way, right?

The problems were written on plates and the individual deemed to be the most significant offender was then instructed to break the plate.

Got that, Dillon and Amy?

The controversial stars almost immediately agreed that King was to blame for their communication issues.

Amy noted how her husband struggled with his tone at times, and Dillon more or less agreed… while the tone that got him in trouble to begin with!

Dillon claimed it was a “subconscious” habit, to which Amy shouted back, “That’s worse!”

Later on during the episode, Amy and Dillon selected communication as the biggest obstacle in their marriage.

Everyone else on the show voted the same, by unanimous consent.

This meant that Dillon, as the main culprit, received a pie in the face. And when it didn’t hit the target squarely enough, Amy went ahead and rubbed it in a lot more.

How sweet, right? Literally, we mean. Because pie is sweet.

Amy and Dillon have been open for awhile now about the difficulties in their relationship.

You can’t exactly pretend you’re an idyllic couple when you agree to go on Marriage Boot Camp, can we?

They got married in September of 2015 and then disappeared from the spotlight for several months, a rare move for anyone in this scandal-filled family.

In a preview for this season of the WEtv series, Duggar tells a castmate that King was assaulted her.

They’ve taken various shots at each other on air ever since episodes premiered.

But still. Nothing prepared viewers for what Amy said to Dillon on Friday night.

After seemingly resolving some of their issues, Duggar and King ended up back in their bedroom. And that’s when the disturbing exchange took place.

“It sucks being treated like a child!” she yelled Dillon.

Her husband replied by telling Amy she was being “overdramatic.”

This is never a good thing to tell a woman, and Duggar fired back as follows:

“When you treat me like a child, I feel like I’m being raped by an older man!” 

Ummm, yikes?!?

We don’t want to judge any relationship too harshly, even when it comes to those who choose to be under the microscope o a reality television show.

However….

… when you feel as if you husband is raping you, that may simply be it. You may simply need to reevalute everything on the spot and call a divorce attorney ASAP.

Do you agree?

Do you think Dillon and Amy have a future?

Heck, should they have a future?

Sound off now!

Kim Kardashian: SLAMMED for "Acting Poor" in New Family Photos

Kim Kardashian is finally back.

Following about three months away from the spotlight, the mother of two returned to social media in early 2017 via an onslaught of new family photos.

They featured Kim and (soon-to-be-ex?) husband Kanye West at home, just hanging out, chilling, spending time with their children.

They offered fans a rare glimpse into the private world of this global superstar.

So why is Kim now the subject of some pretty intense backlash?

Because a handful of critics out there are taking Kardashian to task for her supposedly overt attempt to “act poor.”

After the reality star got robbed of millions of dollars worth of jewelry in Paris back in early October, some Internet users have noticed how hard Kim is trying to now come across as normal.

The pictures depict her without much make-up on… sitting on a shaggy carpet… relaxing on an old couch… one image centers on Kanye eating instant noodles out of a bowl in the kitchen.

“Lets act poor for the aesthetic. How rude to people who are actually poor,” one hater wrote of the following snapshot, while another added:

“Poverty is not an aesthetic.”

Added yet another:

“Wats with the same outfit and rusty background like your not living in a luxury mansion, but a clapped up shelter house with cheap furniture?”

This is actually a somewhat interesting topic and debate.

On one side, it’s easy to see why Kim would choose to show a different side of herself and her family online.

She previously flaunted her wealth and her lifestyle at nearly all times, posing with her diamond rings prominent; taking pictures of herself on the grounds of her mansion.

And while she cannot reasonably be blamed for what happened to her in Paris, it’s easy to see why it’s a bad idea for any celebrity to be so open about his or her riches.

Insiders have said that the assailants who robbed Kim of a $ 4 million ring learned about said ring as a result of Kim’s Instagram photos.

So, in the aftermath of this horrific incident, of course Kardashian should take a different approach to social media.

Then again… come on now.

Kim and Kanye are still multi, multi, multi-millionaires. The former is off on a trip to Dubai as we type.

It’s most definitely a smart move to scale back on how many photos feature gold-plated toilets, for instance.

But we can understand how many people out there are conditioned to see everything Kardashian and her family does as being fake, as putting public relations and image and reputation above all else.

So can one really be blamed for viewing these pictures as a mere PR stunt? And being turned off by the notion of Kim pretending like she’s suddenly middle class?

Elsewhere, according to French newspaper, Le Journal du Dimanche, Kardashian first spoke to authorities about the robbery around 4:30 a.m. on Monday, October 3.

She told police in her apartment that she returned there with sister Kourtney Kardashian and stylist Simone Harouche and went upstairs to work on her computer after they went out for the night.

“I heard a noise at the door, like footsteps, and I shouted, asking, ‘Who’s there?’ ” she said, according to the report.

“No one answered. I called my bodyguard at 2:56 a.m. Through the door, I saw two people arrive, plus the night man who was tied up.”

The men donned ski goggles and were dressed like cops, she continued.

“It’s the one with the ski goggles who stayed with me,” she said. “He demanded with a strong French accent, my ring. It was on the bedside table. It’s worth 4 million dollars. … I told him that I didn’t know, he took out a gun and I showed him the ring.

“They grabbed me and took me into the hallway. I was wearing a bathrobe, naked underneath. Then we went in the room again and they pushed me on the bed.

“And, it was this time, they tied me up with plastic cables and taped my hands, then they put tape over my mouth and my legs.”

Kim proceeded to outline in detail what had been taken from her room.

This included two diamond Cartier bracelets, a gold and diamond Jacob necklace, Lorraine Schwartz diamond earrings and a gold Rolex.

“I think they robbed me of 5 million dollars,” she said. “Then they left on the run… I felt they were a bit inexperienced because of the way they tied me up.”

After detailing the robbery, Kardashian told French authorities that she wanted to catch a private plane to reunite with her son, daughter and husband in New York City.

Last week, police arrested many suspects in the Kardashian robbery.

We can’t imagine going through what Kardashian went through.

We sympathize with her. And while we’re often her harshest critics, when it comes to the controversy of this new set of photos, we’re gonna give her the benefit of the doubt.

How about you?

Tom Hiddleston: I"m Gonna Knock Up Taylor Swift and Quit Acting!

Tom Hiddleston has a plan, folks.

According to one of our favorite recent stories in The National Enquirer, the actor will soon be quitting his very successful career on the big screen.

How come?

Because he’s going to be a father!

Maybe! Possibly! If you choose to believe this celebrity gossip newspaper’s latest claim, that is.

It all starts with the fact that Taylor Swift has earned over $ 170 million in the past year. She’s the highest-paid celebrity on the planet, Forbes reports.

Therefore, Hiddleston wants to take advantage of the artist and is allegedly scheming to get part of her massive fortune by putting a baby inside of her womb.

“Tom is no fool, he’s going to knock her up fast,” a totally real insider tells the Enquirer. “Taylor is literally the golden goose.”

Yes, literally. Taylor Swift is literally the one and only golden goose.

“Once they have kids, he will be a stay-at-home dad and she will bring home the bacon,” the sources goes on to say, speaking in the way actual people definitely speak and adding:

“I’m sure he will make the occasional film, but when your wife earns that amount of money, why even bother working?”

Seriously… why bother?

Yes, Hiddleston earned his first Emmy nomination this month.

And, yes, he is set to star in a blockbuster next March titled Kong: Skull Island, which he previewed at Comic-Con over the weekend. 

But whatever! He can stay at home with his love child and just count Swift’s money instead of working!

Kong: Skull Island Trailer

We have no legitimate reason not to believe this rumor.

Hiddleston himself says his relationship with Swift is real, shooting down talk that it’s some kind of public relations stunt.

Moreover, Chris Hemsworth says Hiddleston sort of seems happy with Swift.

So there you have it! Case closed!

And if you don’t believe the source material here for some reason, allow Donald Trump to assuage your concerns.

He said last week that The National Enquirer ought to be “respected” and that it probably should have won The Pulitzer Prize many years ago when it broke the John Edwards infidelity story.

What else do you need to know?

Let’s start thinking of a Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift baby name right now!

Billy Bush Wants Best Dressing Room at TODAY, Already Acting Entitled!

It’s bad enough that he’s going to soil my favorite morning show, but now this guy wants studio 1A’s coveted dressing room?

NO.

As Natalie Morales prepares to move to California as Today‘s West Coast editor (as well as the host of Access Hollywood and contributor to Dateline), Billy Bush will serve as an achor on the 9am slot, starting with August’s Rio Olympics.

Sources tell Page Six that Bush thinks his new position comes with Morales’ dressing room, the only other standalone room aside from Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie’s on the highly sought-after third floor.

And while the room “is so small the clothing rack is outside,” floor three is where the cool kids hang out.

“Billy is assuming he will get Natalie’s dressing room,” a source said.

Well he is assuming wrong!  Poor Willie Geist either “sits in the makeup room” or  “wanders around when he’s not in a segment. Willie has nothing — so the only room for him would be Natalie’s.”

ILY, Willie Geist.

No one else but Morales, Guthrie and Lauer have dressing rooms.

“The building was built in the ’20s, and everyone is making do with a small, tiny, little space,” the source explained of 30 Rockefeller Center.

While Bush has his eyes on the biggest little closet in the building, Hoda Kotb, Kathie Lee Gifford and Carson Daly make do with a “makeshift space” in the studio’s basement.  Sources say it’s not as scary as it sounds, since it got a facelift last year, but it’s the basement.

Kotb would like to move up to the third floor, as would Bush’s cousin, Jenna Bush Hager.

Hager is merely a correspondent, other sources pointed out, and shouldn’t get first dibs on Morales’ dressing room.

If you ask me, Hager is lucky to have a job, let alone a damn closet to change in.

Page Six spoke to another source who clarified that everyone is getting ahead of themselves.

“No one has even thought about this . . . Natalie is still here for the summer.”

Morales will make the move to California after the Summer Olympics, which wrap on August 21st.

Emma Watson to Take Year Off From Acting Because...

Emma Watson just made an announcement that likely made Demi Lovato very proud.

Over the weekend, Lovato slammed Taylor Swift for only donating money here and there, saying her fellow singer tries too hard to be “politically correct” and does not use her platform to truly assist with feminist issues.

But no one would ever say this about Emma Watson.

As well-rounded and as grounded as any young celebrity our there, the Harry Potter star tells Paper Magazine that she is about to embark on a year away from the camera.

She lists two reasons why.

“My own personal development is one,” Watson explains. “My own personal task is to read a book a week, and also to read a book a month as part of my book club.

“I’m doing a huge amount of reading and study just on my own… I’m reading a lot this year, and I want to do a lot of listening.”

Yes, Emma Watson is taking a break from acting in order to read. 

But that’s not all.

She wants to read and she wants to educate herself with far grander goals in mind.

“I want to listen to as many different women in the world as I can,” Watson continues.

“That’s something that I’ve been doing on my own, through the UN, the HeForShe campaign, and my work generally. This January, our HeForShe IMPACT champions are ten CEOs who for the first time will be releasing to the media what their companies look like internally.

“So how many CEOs are male or female, the gender wage gap. We’ll be making all of these statements completely transparent, which is huge. It’s never been done before.

“So big companies like Vodafone, Unilever and Tupperware will be standing up to the media and really acknowledging the issues within their own companies and talking about how they are planning to address these issues as HeForShe IMPACT champions.

“I’m very interested and excited to see how that works out. I’ll also take another field trip in the next two or three months. We are organizing a HeForShe arts week, a university tour, and launching the HeForShe website.

“It’s a lot. There’s a lot to do.”

There’s a lot to do when you are a star who cares sincerely about making the world around you a better place, absolutely.

We’ll miss you on the big screen, Emma Watson.

But we wish you the absolute best.

Lindsay Lohan Goes Makeup-Free, Boasts About Acting Job

Warning: Lindsay Lohan’s latest Instagram pic may shock you and cause you to question everything you thought you knew about the world.

At first it may seem to be just another of Lindsay’s no-makeup selfies. (She’s been posting a lot of those lately, leading many to believe that she’s loving her new Botox guy.)

However, on closer inspection, it becomes clear that the photo and caption contain at least two signs of the apocalypse:

1. Lindsay is looking suspiciously healthy and coke-wrinkle free, which can only mean that she’s reached some sort of agreement with Lucifer himself.


2. According to her caption, LiLo has actually landed an acting job, which we’re pretty sure is a development that’s described in detail in the Book of Revelation.

Like famed psychopaths Paul Gauguin and Marlon Brando before her, Lindsay has apparently relocated to Tahiti, where she’s involved in some sort of top-secret film project that’s totally not a porn, you guys.

Linds captioned the above photo, “Morning! Ready for day three on set!”

Yes, Lindsay Lohan has apparently held down a job for three days.

But in case you were worried that that means she’s turned some kind of corner and will no longer amuse us with her signature brand of batsh-ttery, fear not:

Just last week Lindsay celebrated the birthday of Charles Manson by dressing as his most famous victim, Sharon Tate.

Prior to that, she wore a fake engagement ring to a Halloween party in hoped of fooling her friends (who totally didn’t buy it).

We get the feeling that Crazy Lindsay isn’t going anywhere just yet.

Kylie Jenner Plays a Zombie in Tyga"s "Dope"d Up" Video: How"s Her Acting?

For months, we"ve been hearing rumors about Kylie Jenner pursuing a music career.

Obviously, the 18-year-old selfie queen doesn"t need to pursue any sort of career, as she"s already stacked enough cash to support herself and her D-list rapper boyfriend for a dozen lifetimes.

Still, it"s only natural that a young woman in Kylie"s position would want to prove that she"s worth the money, the fame and the 40 million Instagram followers by sharing her talents with the world.

So we can only hope that Kylie is better at singing than she is at acting, because she just made her dramatic debut in the video for Tyga"s new single "Dope"d Up," and, well…how do we put this nicely?

Sadly, it looks as though Kylie possesses roughly the same acting talent as a first-time porn star who coped with her jitters by popping a quadruple dose of Xanax.

The video is a bizarre "Thriller" knock-off with Michael Jackson"s unforgettable vocals replaced by Tyga"s "rapping" (read: drawling the same slant-rhymed phrases over and over), and the classic dance sequence replaced with half-assed allusions to recent horror films.

The video"s not great, is what we"re saying, and Kylie"s acting might be the worst part.

You"d think a girl who can"t even refrain from making Snapchat videos while she"s driving would be a bit more comfortable in front of the camera.
