13 Reasons to Be Hopeful About the Next Four Years
It is official:
As of January 20, 2017, Donald Trump is the President of the United States.
And while this (not so) simple fact has left many Americans way down in the doldrums, The Hollywood Gossip is here to try and make you feel better.
For the following reasons, the next four years might not be so terrible after all…
1. Star Wars: Episode VIII
But who’s countinr, right?
2. More Alec Baldwin on SNL!
It beats him screaming at reporters, doesn’t it?
3. The Kylie Jenner Sex Tape
You know it’s coming. And you know Kylie will deny playing any role in its release.
4. The Kimye Divorce
You also know it’s coming. And the fallout will be epic. This may be how Kim finally breaks the Internet for real.
5. The Americans is Returning!
Season 5 of the most underrated show on television premieres on March 7. (Wait… this drama is about Russian spies who have infiltrated America. Dammit.)
6. The Midterm Elections
We’ll have a chance to reorganize the government and balance out Congress in 2018. It’s not to soon to get involved.

Christina Grimmie: Heartbroken, Hopeful in Posthumous Music Video
Christina Grimmie may no longer be with us.
But the family of this late singer is making sure fans can continue to appreciate her music.
Last week, we shared the first of four music videos Grimmie filmed before her tragic, shocking death in June.
It featured the singer playing a version of Snow White, describing Grimmie"s journey in trying to find her Prince Charming.
The song was the opening chapter in a long-form music video titled the “Ballad of Jessica Blue,” with Grimmie playing the titular character.
Take a look at "Snow White" below:
Now, Grimmie"s family has released the video for "Anybody"s You."
In this case, Grimmie portrays the same fictional character of Jessica Blue, reflecting on past romances gone wrong and the ex-boyfriends who cheated on her
But the song is not meant to be a downer. There"s an optimistic tinge to it.
The title, for example, is a reference to the perfect soulmate who "Jessica" has not yet met, with Grimmie wondering "if there"s someone that makes me happy/Someone that I already knew/What if, what if, what if that anybody /Anybody"s you?"
She talks to her grandmother at one point in the video about her frustrations with the opposite sex.
The footage ends on a cliffhanger, with Jessica"s grandmother telling her grandchild to "Come with me."
But the next step in this video series will be released next week.
Grimmie, of course, was fatally shot by a deranged fan in Orlando on June 10.
She was signing autographs backstage for fans when a man walked up to her and simply pulled the trigger.
Grimmie"s brother eventually wrestled the shooter to the ground, likely savings many lives in the process, prior to the man getting himself free and killing himself in the process.
Grimmie was 22 years old at the time of her death.
During a memorial service, her brother Marcus addressed the people who came out to pay their respects.
"I don"t have anything to say, I don"t have words still and it"s a good and bad thing," he said.
"All I"m going to say is thank God for the mark that she left on this world. Thanks mom and dad. I know it"s going to be really tough for us to move forward."
It"s been tough for the entire music world to move forward, not that we can compare anyone"s pain here to the pain of Grimmie"s family.
Our heart continues to go out to them and we continue to send them our condolences.
All we can do now is honor the art that Christina made while she was alive.
Along those lines, join us in watching the moving music video below:

Erin Storm Dies: Former Bachelor Hopeful, Pilot Killed in Plane Crash
Erin Storm, a contestant on Season 12 of ABC’s hit reality series The Bachelor and a pilot, has died, according to multiple media reports.
She passed away in a plane crash Monday in Los Angeles.
According to the reports, Storm was flying an Airborne XT-912 light-sport, weight-shift control plane and crashed soon after taking off.
Erin was flying out of Hawthorne Municipal Airport.
Byron Mayes, a Best Drilling and Pump, Inc. employee who was working on a tank near the airport, told NBC that he saw the crash.
“It looked like the plane veered up, lost control and hit a couple feet away from the truck, a couple feet away,” he described.
“All of a sudden, my partner started yelling, ‘Watch out, there’s a plane coming!"” Mayes added, noting that he ran over immediately.
Mayes and his coworkers pulled Erin out of the burning aircraft, with her legs on fire and Storm already in a state of cardiac arrest.
When rescue crews arrived, she was transported to a trauma center, and the pilot for Pacific Blue Air was pronounced dead soon after.
According to witnesses, Storm was wearing in a blue Pacific Blue Air (an aircraft training facility) jumpsuit for what would be her final flight.
Storm competed on Matt Grant’s season of the show in 2008; Shayne Lamas was the final rose recipient from the British star that year.
The Venice, Calif., resident was 40 years old.
It’s been a tragic few years for Bachelor Nation, which has also endured the tragic suicides of Lex McAllister and Gia Allemand.
Eric Hill, a contestant on The Bachelorette, died in a paragliding accident not long after appearing on Andi Dorfman’s season.

EXCLUSIVE! Brandi Glanville Dishes On Supporting Presidential Hopeful Donald Trump"s "Balls To The Wall" Attitude & Celebrity Apprentice"s New Host!
Brandi Glanville has A LOT to say!
Nothing was off the table, including Donald Trump‘s presidential bid.
And considering the former Celebrity Apprentice contestant was on his last season of the show, we’re not too surprised she was spilling all!

We EXCLUSIVELY chat with the blonde beauty at the All Star Mixology Competition in WeHO on Wednesday night, where she confessed her thoughts on him running for Prez.
Brandi shared:
“I’m normally a Democrat. But I say go for it. I kinda love that he’s balls to the wall and says whatever the heck he wants. Some of the things that come out of his mouth are like, ‘Oh my god, did you say that?’ But it’s refreshing that he’s not afraid. He’s not afraid to say, ‘This person is not a 10’ [referencing his comments about Heidi Klum]. I feel that people are so overly sensitive right now, it’s nice to have someone who is so unapologetic.”
Ooh, does this mean Donald can count her vote??

If anything, she’s at least a fan of his approach!
As for Celebrity Apprentice‘s next season, Brandi doesn’t seem to have any issues with Donald’s replacement, Arnold Schwarzenegger. She revealed:
“I’m so excited. Arnold is so different than Donald. I’m so excited that the show is going on, because I was told it wasn’t. I’m just glad the show is continuing.”
Though if they ever need a new CEO, the former Real Housewives starlet is all for it, saying:
“I told Mark Burnett, if you need someone, I’m available!”
Loves it! She’d definitely shake things up!
Though when asked if she would return to the show for Arnold’s season, she divulged:
“No! It was amazing. But it was stressful, and a long time away from my children. They did come and visit a few times but it was so time consuming. I have too many other things going on, too many businesses to run and need to focus on that right now.”
Well, we can’t see what’s in store for Brandi next!!
In the meantime, you can pick up her line of Unfiltered Blonde chardonnay in select stores and restaurants. For a full list click HERE.
