Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Season 3 Episode 3 Recap: When Princesses Attack

On Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Season 3 Episode 3, Princess confronted Moniece and, well, you can imagine how that played out.



Oh yes, Princess Love has had enough of Moniece Slaughter bashing her in the media, and things finally came to a head this week.


Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Season 3 Episode 3 saw things almost get violent after Moniece asked Princess to apologize to her.


We know. The indignity.


If you watch Love & Hip Hop Hollywood online, you know this was a long time coming, but still, nothing ever prepares you fully.


First off, Willie admitted he had been texting Kyesha behind Shanda’s back, and promises he will do better. She’s not amused.



Meanwhile, Brandi tells Princess that she and her friend/business partner turned their online boutique into an actual storefront.


Princess is happy for Brandi but wants to know where she got the money; Max gave her $ 27,000 to put aside for their son.


She spent it on … this.


Brandi also says she uses Princess as an alibi whenever Max asks what he’s up to, and since Princess is engaged to Brandi’s brother?


Let’s just say that puts her in an awkward position, and later, Princess tells Ray J what Brandi is up to, begging him not to tell Max.


Even more awkward.



Ray J promises he won’t talk, but Max starts to figure out that there’s something up, and it’s only a matter of time before this is exposed.


Not much time, it turns out. The day of Brandi’s launch party at the boutique, everything is going well until Max SHOCKINGLY shows up.


Brandi comes clean, at which point Max storms out to leave, only to watch Brandi jump on the hood of the car and windshield screaming.


Really good times.


Eventually she gets off, Max speeds away and Brandi collapses in the middle of the street crying after a brief attempt to give chase.



Finally, the main event:


Princess wants to know why Moniece keeps running her damn mouth talking about her during interviews and Mo wants her to say sorry.


Ain’t happening.


Moniece gets up to walk away but Princess runs around the table and tries to lunge for after her, until security steps in to break it up.


Just another week in Hollywood, right? That s–t cray, but it’s par for the course with this cast of characters VH1 has assembled for us.

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Season 3 Episode 2 Recap: For the Love of Ray J

On VH1’s Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Season 3 Episode 2 Monday night, Ray J’s love life continued to be the subject of much fascination.



If you watch Love & Hip Hop Hollywood online, you’ll get to learn all about Masika Kalysha, who of course got knocked up by Fetty Wap.


Despite Wapping that without protection, he’s pissed about the pregnancy and claims he’s not the father. She demands a paternity test.


Beyond that, on Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Season 3 Episode 2, Masika is paid a visit this week by Moniece and Nia. A dramatic visit.


Masika asks Moniece about why she put Princess Love on blast; Moniece says beefed with Princess at Mendeecees and Yandy’s wedding.


Princess didn’t like it that Moniece was calling Ray J “Raymond,” to watch Moniece said: “Bitch, I fucked your man and yeah, I liked it!”


As always, classy.


For her part, Princess has mixed it up with Teairra Mari in the past, and now she’s ready to throw down Moniece, it appears. Hard core.



After Moniece told the world that she hit it with Ray J first, Princess says Ray J told her that they boned once at a party when she was 19.


“Yes, Moniece. You got fucked by Ray J. Who the fuck cares? You want a fucking cookie? The bitch is not relevant,” Princess states.


“Ray doesn’t even remember when it happened. Or maybe he’s just trying to make himself forget. I would too,” she continues.


“She needs to go on somewhere before I slap them big-ass, tired-ass bags off her eyes and smack that smirk off her face.”


Later, with the provocation of the ever-messy Teiarra Mari, Moniece disputes the claim that she only slept with Ray J once.


“What I really want to do is bust this bitch upside her head and keep it pushing,” says Moniece says of her ex’s current fiance.


She then says that Ray J and Princess’ marriage is totally doomed because the Kim Kardashian sex tape star is a cheater.


Also, she’ll feel sorry for Princess if Ray J knocks her up; Moniece may not be lying here, but man, she is being harsh as f–k.




L and HHH



Meanwhile, Brandy Norwood – Ray J’s sister – tries to play mature mediator between Princess, Ray, and their mother Sonja Norwood.


Also, Ray chats with Max, Lil’ Brandi’s husband, about how they eloped and didn’t sign a prenup because it’s a sign of a lack of trust.


Or that you don’t have jack s–t to protect.


Ray J, for his part, has enough hits – both Kim Kardashian related and otherwise – that he does have some decent ASSets to consider.


Still, he busts out the papers and decides to tear them up, to the horror of his mother, and the delight of VH1 execs thirsty for drama.


Finally, we have one huge confrontation between Shanda, Willie and Kyesha, as Shanda confronts Willie in the studio … and DAMN.



Willie confesses to texting Kyesha but denies that he railed her; Kyesha says it was way more than just texts and they boned last December.


After they rehash the drama … they decide to get together again and do so in a West Hollywood establishment where all hell breaks loose.


Kyesha admits that she’s still in love with Willie, and Shanda, despite wanting this meeting to hear the truth, loses her s–t when she hears it.


You would think her rage would be directed at Willie Taylor, her husband, for his “we just texted for 10 years” BS … but no. Only Kyesha.


Bottom line? Follow the links above to enjoy Shanda and Kyesha going at each other like a couple of crazed lunatics in a public place.

Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Season 3: First Look!

Will they or won"t they?!?


That"s one of the main questions on fans" minds heading into Season 3 of VH1"s non-critically-acclaimed reality series, Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood.


We"re referring, of course, to Ray J (best known as the partner in the Kim Kardashian Sex Tape) and Princess Love, who got engaged on Season 2.

Elsewhere, Safaree Samuels will join the cast, looking to move on from his past romance with Nicki Minaj.

Scroll down for a further look at what to expect when you watch Love & Hip Hop online or on television:



Masika Kalysha will return to the scene with a new child on the way.


Following a public feud with rap superstar Fetty Wap, the soon-to-be single mother will have trouble trying figure out how Fetty will fit into her daughter’s life.


Teairra Mari was slapped with highly publicized misdemeanor charges in 2015. The question here: will Teairra’s pals rally to bail her out of a bad situation before things grow even worse?


Moniece will be prepared to address all her haters. And no one will be off limits!


Miss Nikki Baby will be back… and her love life will be hotter than ever. She’s now dating Samules… while secretly juggling hot Latina model, Rosa Acosta. YIKES!


Willie Taylor and wife Shanda Denyce will be confronted with their own marital problem in the form of Kyesha, a rapper from their hometown of Chicago.


With evidence of Willie’s infidelities, Shanda will wonder whether their marriage can last. Could a divorce be on the horizon?


Finally, Soulja Boy will be ready to take over the world, with his new album about to drop, just as he and Nia Riley are on the best path they"ve been on in ages.

Hollywood Hillbillies Star Comes Out as Transgender

Michael Kittrell has made a bold declaration.


And an even bolder decision about his life.



The Hollywood Hillbillies cast member, known to viewers of that Reelz Channel program as “Angry Ginger,” has announced on YouTube that he now wants to be known by another name:


Claire.


Indeed, Michael Kittrell says he is transgender and is in the process of becoming a woman.


In the following video, Kittrell says she has been undergoing hormone therapy for many months now.


"I"m not going to live another year of my life pretending to be someone else. I"m just not going to do it," she said in the emotional post.


"I know a lot of you are going to make fun of me. I know a lot of you are going to think that I"m joking. This is the hardest video I"ve ever made, because I"m not."


She"s aware that some critics may think this is a publicity stunt, but she has a very pointed response to those who take that viewpoint.


Claire tells TMZ it would be extremely "dark" for anyone to make a joke out of something so painful and something so personal to so many folks out there.


This is a real issue and it deserves to be treated with respect.



Kittrell does mention her very own grandmother isn"t fully buying this transition yet, but that it"s starting to sink in more and more every day to her.


Hollywood Hillbillies tells the story of Kittrell and his aforementioned grandmother, as they move from rural Georgia to Hollywood in order to take advantage of their 150 million-plus YouTube views.


In making this major announcement, Kittrell Tweeted a photo of herself as Claire. Here it is:



Claire adds below that she"s been in touch with Caitlyn Jenner, telling her many followers:


"I"m not going to pretend to be someone else anymore. Not in front of the camera and not behind one.


"It may seem cliché, but Caitlyn Jenner helped me out a lot. I know that she gets a lot of flack because she is a lady of means. She has a lot of money and not every trans person can look like her because she"s able to afford surgery."


Claire admits that she can"t afford surgery just yet, but that she"s at least happy for now that she"ll be living as her true self.


Watch the full explanation and video below and then join us in wishing Kittrell the very best of luck.

Teresa Giudice Storms Out Of "Access Hollywood" Interview!

Welp, you done it this time, Hollywood.


More specifically, Access Hollywood: Live.  


Even more specifically, Kit Hoover and and guest host David Karger.


During a satellite interview with The Real Housewives of New Jersey"s Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice, Karger asked Giudice about her husband Joe"s possible deportation to Italy after he serves his prison sentence.


Oh no.  ABORT, Karger.  ABORT.


"Next question please… " Giudice declared before saying to Kruger, "you know what, I don"t think that"s something you should be asking."


"Well," Hoover interjected, "everybody"s talking about it and it could be a reality…"


NOPE.


"Yeah, no I"m sorry, I think that"s really rude," Guidice said, steam starting to rise from her head.


"Okay, well it is a fact and we"re probably going to see it on the show so I don"t think that was a rude question…" Hoover said (with a bit of attitude, I will say).


"No you"re not gonna see it on the show," Giudice interrupted her, clearly not down with Hoover"s tone.


Hoover then tried to change the subject, but this one was no better.  It had to do with The Real Housewives of Orange County"s Heather Dubrow criticizing Giudice"s lack of remorse after being released from prison.


Again, NOPE.



"As a matter of fact, I"m going to leave," Giudice finally said as she got up and ripped her mic off.


"Cause I don"t think that…. to even ask that…" 


 Giudice"s mic pack nearly whacked Gorga in the face as her sister-in-law made her exit.


This isn"t the first time Giudice as avoided the question of Joe"s future.


Last week, she gave an interview to ABC News from her New Jersey home, and managed to shut down the question of deportation without ruining the interview.


Access Hollywood"s questions were likely a result of bad timing: Guidice was over talking about her family"s run-ins with the law, and is now ready to move forward.


The problem is, those run-ins are pretty much the main reason she"s famous right now.


The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Sundays at 8/9 central on Bravo.

18 Most Bitter Breakups in Hollywood History


Some breakups are pretty amicable and the two parties remain friends.


Then there"s the ones that just don"t go down well and both parties throw jabs at one another on social media. 


It can get pretty tiring. 


We"ve compiled a list of some of the most bitter celebrity breakups in Hollywood history below:




1. Taylor Swift & Calvin Harris


Taylor swift and calvin harris

Their breakup was a shocker and it obviously hurt Calvin just how quickly she moved on from him with Tom Hiddleston.



2. Johnny Depp & Amber Heard


Johnny depp and amber heard

This relationship came to a conclusion when Johnny allegedly struck Amber with a cell phone.



3. Kailyn Lory & Javi Marroquin


Javi marroquin and kailyn lowry star magazines annual hollywood

There were constant arguments between this couple on Teen Mom 2, but Javi being deployed seemed to be the final straw.



4. Madonna & Sean Penn


Madonna and sean penn

You know your relationship isn’t going well when there’s a nickname for it. The Poison Penns was a hilarious one.



5. Matt Damon & Minnie Driver


Matt damon and minnie driver

Remember Matt Damon announced in an interview that he was single and he failed to let Minnie Driver know? Talk about awkward.



6. Kim Kardashian & Kris Humphries

After a 72-day marriage, Kris Humphries felt that Kim had exploited their relationship for money and ratings. Was he right?

Stacey Dash: Jesse Williams is a Hollywood Plantation Slave!

Safe to say Stacey Dash was not a big fan of Jesse Williams’ impassioned, viral speech at the BET Awards last weekend. At all.



Dash called Williams racist … and didn’t stop there.


“You’ve just seen the perfect example of a HOLLYWOOD plantation slave!” Dash wrote on her blog, excoriating the actor’s remarks.


“Sorry, Mr. Williams. But the fact that you were on that stage at THOSE awards tells people you really don’t know what you’re talking about.”


“Just spewing hate and anger.”


Williams stars on Grey’s Anatomy and is also the executive producer of the documentary Stay Woke: The Black Lives Matter Movement.


At the BET Awards, he delivered a poignant, and at times pointed, speech about the still-prevailing racism in today’s volatile society.



Citing examples of police brutality and invoking images of slavery as well as the Black Lives Matter movement, Williams earned raves.


“We’re done watching and waiting while this invention called whiteness uses and abuses us, burying black people out of sight and out of mind.”


“Extracting our culture, our dollars, our entertainment … ghettoizing and demeaning our creations, then stealing them, gentrifying our genius.”


Accepting his humanitarian award, Williams added, “The thing is, though, just because we’re magic, doesn’t mean we’re not real.”


Dash, however, saw it a bit differently.


From her standpoint, Williams’ speech was divisive rhetoric, another obstacle keeping America from coming together as a united nation.



“That chip on the shoulders of people like you will weigh you down and keep you from flying free,” she wrote. “But true freedom is never free.”


“You have to know how to fly. If anyone is making you feel this way its you. Living in a psychological prison of your own making.”


“If anyone is GHETTO-IZING anyone, it’s people like you letting the BETs and other media outlets portray us in stereotypes.”


Her beef with the network is ongoing.


During last winter’s #OscarsSoWhite controversy, Dash stated on Fox & Friends that she couldn’t grasp why BET still existed.


“I think it’s ludicrous,” the 49-year-old said. “We have to make up our minds. Either we want to have segregation or integration.”


Dash says it’s all a double standard:


“If we don’t want segregation, then we have to get rid of channels like BET and the BET Awards, where you’re only awarded if you’re black.”


Dash also incurred the wrath of Twitter for comments about Prince not being a black artist, so in certain situations she really is clueless.


Sorry.

21 Stars Who Spoke Out Against Sexism in Hollywood


To say there"s a little bit of a sexism problem in Hollywood is like saying David Duke is a little bit racist.


From slut-shaming to body-shaming, from the pay gap to the number of female speaking characters in films (it"s just 29.9 percent), celebrity women are regularly given the short end of the stick compared to their male counterparts.


We"ve got a long way to go, but some celebrities are now speaking out against the injustices women in Tinseltown must deal with on a daily basis.




1. Taylor Swift


Taylor swift

For years, Taylor Swift was called out for writing songs about her exes, but she asked a curious question: why aren’t male artists targeted for doing the same thing?



2. Scarlett Johansson


Scarlett johansson platinum blonde

During a press conference promoting Avengers with Robert Downey, Jr., Johansson was questioned on how she got in shape for the role while Downey was asked about character development. Her response: “How come you get the really interesting existential question, and I get the like, ‘rabbit food’ question?”



3. Tom Hardy

Speaking about Mad Max: Fury Road, Tom Hardy had this to say: “The lead of this movie is a female amputee. It’s a total empowerment of women. It’s actually about f**king time.”



4. Rihanna

When a reporter assumed Rihanna was looking for her “next man,” she shut it down like a total badass.



5. John Legend

When Chrissy Teigen was mom-shamed for going out a week after giving birth, husband John Legend questioned why he wasn’t targeted. “Funny there’s no dad-shaming,” he wrote on Twitter. “When both of us go out to dinner, shame both of us so Chrissy doesn’t have to take it all. We’ll split it.”



6. Madonna

Madonna brilliantly points out the sexist and ageist double standard surrounding women dating younger men by comparing herself to Mick Jagger.

Farrah Abraham Shells Out MAJOR Bucks For Hollywood Home!

The world is full of depressing realities. One of them is the fact that Farrah Abraham is very rich.



In addition to her Teen Mom salary, Farrah strips, makes occasional clothed public appearances, “writes” erotic novels, and sells sex toys.


And that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Ms. Abraham’s random business ventures. (Did you know you could furnish your entire house with Farrah’s signature tables and chairs? Well, you can!)


So while it’s not surprising to hear that Farrah was able to shell out more than most people earn in a decade for a home in the Hollywood Hills, it’s still a little bit of a bummer. (No pun intended.)


According to TMZ, Farrah dropped $ 845,000 for the 2,700-square-foot townhouse, which reportedly has a sizable backyard for her 7-year-old daughter, Sophia, to play in.


What’s more interesting than the price, however, is the fact that Farrah has officially gone Hollywood.


After growing up in the Midwest, Farrah moved to Austin where she opened up a restaurant that specialized in frozen yogurt.


Now, it appears she’s putting all her eggs in the entertainment basket.


Farrah has spoken about wanting to be an actress in the past, and we’re desperately hoping she gets some sort of role.


If she’s gonna make that kind of cash, the least Farrah can do is provide us with a good laugh.


Johnny Manziel: Lucky To Be Alive After Hollywood Crash

Disgraced football player Johnny Manziel should be thanking his lucky stars.



TMZ shows photos of the car Manziel was a passenger in – a Mercedes-Benz S550-  when it slammed into a pole in Hollywood on April 9th at around 10:45pm.  


Fortunately, no one in the car was hurt, despite the front of the car being absolutely smashed beyond repair.


The alleged driver, Manziel’s friend Ryan Silverstein, is being investigated by the LAPD on hit-and-run charges.  Manziel and SIlverstein  fled the scene and were picked up Cleveland Browns wide receiver, Josh Gordon (Manziel was released by the Browns last month).


According to TMZ, the car hit the pole with such force that every air bag in the car went off.  


Earlier that evening, Manziel and a few friends went out to The Nice Guy, and the former Texas A&M player left behind the same baseball hat he wore to the club that was left in the car post-accident.


The two, however, returned to the scene, where cops were already investigating.  TMZ reports that witnesses ID’d Silverstein because of his “recognizable beard.”


At this time, Manziel has not been accused of any wrongdoing, nor is Gordon.


Silverstein is a good friend of Drake’s and used to date Pretty Little Liars‘s Shay Mitchell.

Khloe Kardashian, Kylie & Kendall Jenner Wear CRAZY Disguises on Hollywood Tour

Okay, this actually might be the funniest thing a Kardashian or Jenner has done.



Intentionally, at least.


Khloe Kardashian and her sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner must’ve been bored today, because they just pulled a pretty epic prank on a Hollywood tour bus – and Snapchatted the whole thing.


The three hopped aboard the bus wearing disguises rendering them completely unrecognizable and a helluva lot less glam than usual.


Khloe looked twice her age in a grey wig and plenty of stage makeup creating a wrinkled look – and even acted the part with a fake southern accent.


Kylie wore a fake nose, black wig with bangs and wire-rimmed glasses while Kendall sported a fake schnoz and a curly red wig. 


The trio ate Subway and Khloe got chummy with the driver, telling him she was born in 1937 and hailed from Albuquerque.



To add to the mayhem, they even heckled the poor tour guide by demanding to go to Justin Bieber’s house, dissing the “Kartrashians” and shouting “That’s not true!” repeatedly when the driver brought up something he read about Kylie’s bae Tyga on the internet.



Eventually, the jig was up (possibly because Kylie was posting everything to Snapchat) and the paparazzi caught them, and the Three Stoogettes ran like they were on the lam from the feds.



Luckily, Kendall exercised great restraint and refrained from punching them.


This isn’t the first time Kylie has showcased her directorial skills on Snapchat.


Last month, she enlisted the help of her sister Kourtney Kardashian and dad Caitlyn Jenner to make a weird amateur porno.


Afterwards, Kylie posted the photo above to Instagram and called herself the “queen of Snapchat.”


And for once, we actually agree with her.

Tom Cruise Paid Male Escort For Sex, Claims Top Hollywood Private Eye

Actress Leah Remini’s recent memoir turned out to be a PR nightmare for several Hollywood Scientologists, but no one’s reputation was battered as severely as that of Tom Cruise.



Remini made several embarrassing accusations about Cruise, claiming that the actor throws frequent tantrums and uses young low-ranking Scientologists as slave laborers.


Sources say Cruise threatened legal action, but ultimately decided against it, hoping that the fallout from Remini’s book would simply go away on its own.


Several months later, that hasn’t happened, and now, Cruise is dealing with more unwelcome media attention, thanks to yet another tell-all.


For years, Paul Barresi was one of Hollywood’s most sought-after private investigators. 


In 1999, he was imprisoned for illegal wiretapping and stripped of his detective’s license. 


Now, forced to find alternate means of supporting himself, Barresi has decided to spill the secrets of his biggest clients in an upcoming memoir, and he recently teased one of the book’s biggest bombshells in an interview with The National Enquirer:



Barresi claims that when lawyers for Cruise hired famed PI Anthony Pellecano to look into claims that a male escort named Nathan “Big Red” Hamilton had been hired by Cruise to perform sexual favors, Pellecano outsourced the investigation to Barresi:


“Pellecano  brought me in to do the legwork and I tracked him down,” Barresi says. “I got all the dirt — and now, years later, I’m going to tell it all in a new book.”


Barresi says he discovered ample evidence to support Hamilton’s claims that Cruise frequently hired male prostitutes, telling The Enquirer that the young man had kept a “detailed diary” and “had receipts from restaurants, hotels and nightclubs to support his claims of sex with Tom.”


“A mat had been spread out on the floor,” Hamilton writes in one diary entry. 


“Cruise dressed in what looked like a bodysuit…for wrestling. Grinning and gloating at me, he said, ‘Strip down to your underwear and play with me for a little while.’”


The Enquirer claims to have verified that Barresi was paid $ 5,000 for tracking down and interviewing Hamilton.


Thus far, the PI is not facing any legal action from Cruise, but many believe the actor will file suit sometime this week.

Hollywood Foreign Press Assocation Confuses Gina Rodriguez and America Ferrara

Well, this is awkward.



While tweeting a photo from this morning’s 2016 Golden Globe nominations, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association thought presenter America Ferrara was Jane The Virgin‘s Gina Rodriguez.


“The @goldenglobes noms are about to start! @HereIsGina @ChloeGMoretz @ImAngelaBasset #DenisQuaid #Golden Globes,” HFPA tweeted. 


According to Page Six, Buzzfeed entertainment reporter Jarett Weiselman was the first to catch the mistake.




HFPA Confuses Gina Rodriguez and America Ferrara



“Yeah, that’s America Ferrera not Gina Rodriguez, official #GoldenGlobes Twitter account…”


I mean, it was 5:30 in the morning there, but still.


What’s worse, four minutes before that Tweet, they made the same mistake.


“.@HereIsGina is kicking off the @goldenglobes nominations announcements #GoldenGlobes.”


Oooof.


Rodriguez won a Golden Globe for her role in the CW series last year; she’s nominated again this year.

Charlie Sheen: HIV Diagnosis Was "Open Secret" in Hollywood For YEARS?

Moments ago, Charlie Sheen confirmed that he’s HIV positive in an interview with Matt Lauer.



Sadly, the revelation was not unexpected, as rumors that Sheen was battling the disease began to build over the past week after multiple insiders was verified that an A-list star had been diagnosed with the virus.


In one of the interview’s most surprising moments, Sheen revealed that he’d learned about his condition four years ago, when intense migraines and night sweats led him to undergo testing.


Now, several sources are claiming that many in Hollywood were aware of Sheen’s illness long before the news went public today.


In fact, according to Radar Online, the actor’s health concerns were such an open secret within the industry that they were revealed to be a frequent topic of conversation amongst execs following the Sony email hack of 2014.


A message sent by an exec on March 10 of last year referred to Sheen as a  “a drug addict and HIV positive.”


Sheen revealed during his interview today that he had revealed his diagnosis to a small circle of friends, but was forced to go public when after being repeatedly sued by ex-partners.


As those lawsuits were based on allegations that Sheen had kept his diagnosis a secret, it’s possible that industry figures who knew about his condition might now be called to testify in the various civil cases that are still sure to come.
