Kim Richards: Desperate for Cash? Returning to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?

It’s not surprising that emotions ran high at last night’s taping of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion show.

What is a bit surprising, however, is the fact that not all of the drama surrounded Yolanda Foster and her many feuds, as the ladies were reportedly stunned when a familiar face made an unexpected appearance on set.

If you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online, you know that Kim Richards only made a few appearances this season, so it’s somewhat surprising that she showed up for for the reunion special.

According to Radar Online, Kim didn’t have to think twice about making a cameo, as she’s broke and desperate to re-join the cast. 

“Kim was paid to do the reunion, so she agreed to do it,” says one insider. “She wanted to be paid to do Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live last week, but was told no.”

Yes, considering her many Richards many legal woes and recent stint in a high-end rehab facility, it’s not surprising that Richards is hard-up for cash.

Fortunately for her, in an ironic twist of fate, the same issues that drove her to rock bottom might help her win her old job back.

Her problems may be sad, but they make for compelling television, a fact that the show’s producers are well aware of.

50 Cent: Did He Go to Bankrupcty Court With Fake Cash Stuffed in His Pants?

At this point, 50 Cent is basically the Lindsay Lohan of rap. It wasn’t really that long ago that he was on the A-list, but he’s been up to nothing but ridiculous social media shenanigans for several years now, which makes it hard to remember a time when he was cool.

Fortunately, both LiLo and Fiddy are still good for the occasional laugh. Check out Mr. Cent’s latest Instagram shenanigans, for example:

As you may have heard, 50 declared bankruptcy recently after losing his shirt in a series of unrelated lawsuits.

The judge in his case pointed out that 50’s spending habits are ridiculous, and it’s kind of a slap in the face to his creditors when he posts photos of himself rolling around in stacks of cash like some kind of gangsta Scrooge McDuck.

You might think that would be enough to convince the 40-year-old to stop pretending he’s still insanely rich on social media, but 50 being 50, he’s actually been posting more ridiculous Mayweather-esque selfies than before.

After being admonished by the judge at his court appearance yesterday, 50 posed for the photo above right outside the courtroom, and then shared it with his millions of social media followers.

“For some reason people love me. I went to court today and all I felt was love,” 50 ceptioned the pic. “They asked me about money I said I ain’t got none,but if you want some m&m’s here ya go.”

Har-har. Bankruptcy is HIGH-larious!

The best part is that 50 assured the judge that all the cash in his IG photos is fake and the pics are intended to uphold his image and promote his brand.

So does this mean that the rapper went to court with stacks of fake cash stuffed in his pants?!

Oh, how the Fiddy have fallen.

Kailyn Lowry"s RISKY Post-Surgery Pic: Trading Health for Cash?

Oh, Kailyn Lowry, what are you doing to yourself?

The Teen Mom 2 star had a butt lift, liposuction and a tummy tuck just two weeks ago, and now she’s posted a pic of herself wearing a waist trainer – a move that could seriously jeopardize her health.

“Maintaining my tiny waist with my @Colombianwaist waist cincher,” she wrote. “Ladies if you are looking to lose inches or just maintain your waist I highly recommend it. Get yours today at www.Colombianwaist.com Use code 10off for discount. Thanks @Colombianwaist #WaistTraining #Itssocomfortable”

This post is clearly sponsored by the company that sells the waist trainers, so Kailyn is getting some cash out of the deal, but couldn’t she hold off until she’s fully healed?

A tummy tuck and lipo are major procedures that typically can involve several weeks to months of recovery.

Even her surgeon, the infamous Dr. Michael Salzhauer (aka, “Dr. Miami”) warns that wearing the waist trainer could be dangerous.

“She needs to be careful that it’s not too tight!” he told Radar Online.

“Too much pressure can hurt the skin,” he said. “It could compromise the blood flow to the skin, leading to blisters or scarring.”

The good doctor said he has talked to Lowry, and that she assured him she was being cautious with the contraption and not cinching it too tight.

Even still, Dr. Miami believes she’d be safer to not wear it at all until she’s completely recovered.

Why take chances, Kailyn? Is the money from the waist training gig helping to pay Dr. Miami’s fees?

There is also some irony here. After spending many thousands of dollars to shape her midsection to perfection, she’s still wearing a waist trainer to make it appear smaller.

We’re hoping she snapped the shot then threw it in the closet and collected her check.

Of course, that’s not what the Columbian Waist company would like you to believe.

Kris Jenner: Trying to Cash in on Justin Bieber-Kourtney Kardashian Affair?!

As you may have heard, Kourtney Kardashian and Justin Bieber are hooking up, and the famous members of Kourt’s family have reacted to the news in very different ways.

Sources say Kendall Jenner is “freaked out” by the news, which is understandable, considering she once banged the Biebs herself.

Also not surprising  – Scott Disick isn’t a huge fan of the idea of his baby mama sleeping with a notoriously promiscuous 21-year-old.

Not all of the reactions to Jutney have been negative, however.

Apparently, Kris Jenner sees the situation as an opportunity to cash in on one of her daughters, and you know how much she loves those!

“Kris is pressuring Kourtney to discuss her relationship, to be more exact, her sexual chemistry with Justin on Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” a source tells Hollywood Life.

“And if that’s not enough, Kris wants Kourtney to persuade Justin to make a couple of appearances on the show.”

Not surprisingly, Kourtney is not thrilled with the idea of sharing the intimate details of her ill-advised rebound fling on national television.

“Kourtney is not interested in doing any of this,” says the insider.

“She thinks her mom is completely out of line for even bringing it up. Kourtney does not want any part of her relationship with Justin even remotely mentioned on the show!”

And we’re just gonna go ahead and assume that Justin doesn’t want to appear on KUWTK.

Telling the world that he’s hooking up with a famous mom 15 years his senior would probably hurt his chances of getting back together with Selena Gomez.

Bella Thorne: My Bully is a Billionaire & She"s Always Flaunting Her Cash!

Last month, we reported that Bella Thorne is being bullied by one of her young Hollywood colleagues.

One famous teen seemed to fit the description perfectly, but Bella has denied that Kylie Jenner is her mean girl. 

So who could it be?

Unfortunately, Bella refuses to spill the beans, but she has continued dropping breadcrumbs, and we’re sure someone will figure this mystery out eventually. We’re counting on you, Internet!

“It’s not I hate her because she’s a billionaire,” Thorne clarified in a recent interview with the Huffington Post.

“I don’t like her because she is a billionaire and makes sure everyone knows that she is, which is like, I didn’t grow up with money or anything like that. And even if I did, I’m not very much like that.” 

Bella continued to frame the battle as a class matter, casting herself as the hot, redheaded Bernie Sanders doing battle with some catty young Donald Trump:

“If somebody wasn’t flaunting it in a mean way to make other people feel bad about themselves, then I would not mind it,” she told the website.

“It’s when people do it in certain types of ways that make you not appreciate them as much.” 

Bella assured fans that she’s doing just fine, and she says she only talks about this feud so that her fans who are struggling with bullying will realize that they’re not alone.

“It’s not necessarily about one person,” she said. “There’s always a mean girl in school – it’s in Hollywood too.

“Our life is not so overly glamorous. It’s exactly what you’re going through, but there’s photos taken of it.”

The life of a young Hollywood starlet might differ from your own in more ways than the number of times you’re photographed over the course of a day, but we see her point.

Now, back to the question of who this famous young bully could be. Feel free to leave your best guesses in the comments.

Kylie Jenner Posts Christmas Waist Training Selfie, Continues to Cash In on Dumb Trend

If you’re one of Kylie Jenner’s 40 million Instagram followers, you know that the 18-year-old selfie queen loves waist training.

Or rather, she loves cashing in on the idiotic waist training trend by convincing all of her followers that that’s the secret to her and her sisters’ Jessica Rabbit-like physiques.

Sadly, all of the Kardashians have posted waist training photos, so we’re not surprised to see Khloe and Kourtney joining Kylie in the cynical enterprise of shilling useless and possibly dangerous waist training products.

We don’t even blame the girls. All of the Kardashians and their hangers-on have endorsed some kind of crappy product at one point or another, but Kylie is proving to be more marketable (and more shameless) than any of her sisters.

In addition to Kylie’s many waist training selfies, she’s jumped on board with products so ridiculous that even Kris Jenner must’ve been like, “You serious?”

We’ve had entire posts devoted Kylie’s flat stomach secrets (Apparently it’s some expensive tea and, not, ya know – being 18.) 

We’ve seen Kylie sell lip kits to her impressionable young fans, who probably believed a $ 29 box of makeup could serve as a substitute for tens of thousands of dollars of professionally-administered fillers.

Now, we have Kylie and her sisters decked out in Christmas waist trainers, because ’tis the season to take advantage of your young, impressionable fans.

We’re not begrudging Kylie the chance to cash in on her fame, but can’t she does she have to resort to BS-ing the young people who made her famous?

Celebs Cash In On Macy"s Black Friday Commercial

While most us will behave like slob kebobs on Thanksgiving Day, Macy"s is inviting customers to start shopping.

A new commercial promoting Black Friday aired today, capturing the magic of seasonal greed and ruining everything that is good about Turkey Day.

The retail giant enlisted Jessica Simpson, Thalia, Ryan Seacrest, Heidi Klum, Ariana Grande, Clinton Kelly and Martha Stewart to lure customers through their doors at 6pm Thanksgiving day.

Donald Trump wasn"t invited because Macy"s fired him for calling Mexicans a bunch of criminals and rapists.

Stewart and Seacrest lead the charge in the video, with Stewart first slapping the hand of a pilgrim who tried to sneak a treat.

Kelly dressed an elf, Klum got carried by balloons gifted to her by a clown, Thalia shook her hips to the beat of a marching band, and Simpson cut a sales tag in half because Chicken of the Sea.

“Only Macy’s could give America a parade on Thanksgiving and the biggest sale of the year on Black Friday," Seacrest said from his stage in menswear.

Stewart came over to tell Seacrest to lock it up because his schtick was too much.  

It was all so…hammy.  Why can"t they do something lovely like this?

Grab your coupons and get ready to stand in line for hours to save $ 6 on a microwave, because Macy"s is making your holiday dreamz come true.

Huzzah!

Kris Jenner Attempts to Cash in On Lamar Odom, Pisses Off Khloe Kardashian

The good news is, Lamar Odom is on the mend after the overdose that nearly claimed his life.

The bad news is, he’s still enmeshed with the Kardashian family, which means everything he does is viewed as a possible source of TV ratings.

We’ve already heard about Kris Jenner’s attempts to cash in on Odom’s overdose, but now she’s apparently taking things to the next level – and seriously pissing off Khloe Kardashian in the process.

According to Radar Online, Kris recently presented Lamar with a contract which would ensure that footage of his recovery could be used on upcoming episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

“Khloe confronted Kris after she found out that her mother tried to get Lamar to sign the contract in order to be able to use the footage that has been shot for next season’s show,” says an insider.

“Kris knows that that having this be a huge part of Season 11 would be great for ratings because viewers will definitely tune in. Khloe thinks that Kris is being completely irrational about this.”

Yeah, we’re gonna have to go ahead and side with Khloe on this one. Unfortunately, it seems everyone’s favorite Kardashian doesn’t quite know what she’s up against:

“She told Kris that Lamar is not a part of the show any more and neither she, nor him, will make money off of this.” says the source.

“But in the end, Kris knows that she is going to win this fight because she calls the shots.”

Seriously, Khloe, think this one through. Standing between Kris and ratings is like taking a side of beef away from a lion.

Customer Receives Domino"s Delivery of $1,300 in Cash

You"d think someone named Mike Vegas would be all about money.

But not this Mike Vegas.

A bartender at AT&T Park in San Francisco (where Kim Kardashian got engaged to Kanye West!), Vegas recently ordered some chicken wings from Domino’s when he thought he had the night off.

But then Vegas got called in to work, so he placed the unopened box of wings in his refrigerator.

When he pulled it out at 5 a.m. to eat, he was aghast to see that it did not contain any chicken wings… only $ 1,300 in cash!

Turns out, the deliveryman was supposed to bring this box to the bank for a deposit, but he forgot and then spent the night calling Vegas to inform him of the error. But Vegas was at work, unable to hear his phone.

"Of course there"s a long list of people arguing you should keep it, you shouldn"t keep it, you should keep it, you shouldn"t keep it," Vegas told KGO, the local ABC affiliate. "I wanted to keep it, believe me. But I can"t, I can"t do that."

Instead, Vegas returned the cash and was given free pizza for a year by his local Domino’s location.

We"d call this a "Win-Win," except that Domino"s pizza is disgusting.
