Kevin Hart Mostly Fails at Trampoline Slam Dunks
Here’s the latest edition of ”Kevin Hart vs. Height” … where the the actor/comedian struggles to slam dunk even with a damn trampoline as his launchpad! Kevin’s attempted dunk sesh went down at one of the Sky Zones around L.A. … where it…
Jamie Spears: Kevin Federline is a Broke Loser Who Wants Britney"s Fortune!
Last month, it was revealed that Britney’s ex Kevin Federline has asked for more child support. He is the father of both of her amazing sons.
While Britney treasures her children and would do anything for them, a lot of people are wondering how her current, substantial child support payments are falling short.
Which led to Britney’s father meeting with Kevin’s attorney and demanding to know why Kevin needs more cash.
Reportedly, Britney Spears is pissed that K-Fed is grubbing after more cash.
Really, anyone who’s ever had to pay a bill in their life has some questions about a guy who says that $ 20,000 a month isn’t enough to pay for two kids who only live with him sometimes.
Now, it turns out that someone else is mad about it — her dad.
Jamie (not to be confused with Jamie Lynn Spears, Britney’s sister) is Britney’s father, and he apparently sat down with Kevin’s attorney.
TMZ has details on how that meeting went down, and it does not sound like anybody left the room satisfied.
According to TMZ‘s report, the meeting was set up last week, when Jamie received a letter from K-Fed’s attorney, asking for a sit-down, face-to-face meeting to discuss Kevin’s request for more child support.
Jamie had apparently already been suspicious of why Kevin might “need” more child support money each month. So it’s probably safe to say that he was wary.
It seems that Kevin’s attorney told Jamie at this meeting that, since Jayden and Sean Preston are now 11 and 12 respectively, attending to their needs and wants during his time with them had grown more expensive.
(More than $ 10,000 per month each, apparently)
As you might imagine, Jamie then reportedly asked what exactly the boys needed but Kevin currently couldn’t afford to give them.
Kevin’s attorney apparently couldn’t answer, but told Jamie that Kevin wanted to be able to take care of the boys “at Britney’s level.”
(First of all, nobody is on Britney’s level, so jot that down)
Jamie replied that Britney hasn’t found that her tween sons are suddenly more expensive to look after, and that she’s taking care of them just as she always has.
So … Jamie wasn’t seeing what had really changed.
TMZ‘s sources say that this is when Kevin’s lawyer started singing Britney’s praises and listing her recent successes.
Britney’s Vegas residency has come to an end, and she made bank.
Jamie replied that he didn’t see how Britney’s success suddenly made her sons more expensive to support.
In fact, he didn’t see how that could have any bearing on child support payments. The couple divorced nearly 11 years ago.
Jamie, still suspicious of Kevin’s use of the funds, then pointed out that Britney is not responsible for supporting Kevin Federline’s other children or other families — because Sean Preston and Jayden have four half-siblings.
Besides, Britney paid K-Fed $ 1.3 million when they divorced and paid him spousal support for years. Normally spousal support is intended to help people whose careers were harmed or abandoned for marriage.
It’s difficult to argue that Kevin Federline’s fame or career was in any way worsened by his marriage to one of the most famous pop stars on the planet.
It’s clear from this report that Jamie seems to believe that K-Fed is funneling some of the child support money to unintended purposes, perhaps to himself or to his other children and other families.
And so Jamie apparently believes that any further money would also be misused.
It is possible, however, that Kevin wants to treat his sons, and that he feels increasingly inadequate in the face of their mother, one of the most talented and successful women that the world has ever seen or ever will see.
If it comes down to a court battle rather than a “quiet” settlement, it’s likely that Kevin will be asked to account for how that money is spent on his sons.
In turn, Kevin’s attorney will likely argue that Britney wasn’t actively touring in 2007, and that her newfound success means that the child support agreement should be revisited.
But … if Kevin can’t adequately explain how $ 20,000 a month for two pre-teens isn’t enough, he may find it challenging to be awarded what he wants.

Ashley Iaconetti and Kevin Wendt: It"s Over
So many people were rooting for this The Bachelor: Winter Games couple. But it just didn’t work out.
Ashley Iaconetti and Kevin Wendt have split, and will not be reenacting Ghost again any time soon. At least, not with each other.
What went wrong?
Just days ago, the couple were still sharing cozy photos of each other.
Though Entertainment Tonight first learned that Ashley and Kevin broke up through a source, they waited for confirmation before reporting it.
And they got it.
Ashley, a long-time fan favorite for the Bachelor Nation, confirmed that she and Kevin Wendt have broken up.
She isn’t telling what went wrong for the two of them … yet. She does plan for the two of them to reveal all.
In the meantime, however, we have a little preview of what they’re likely to say.
The same source that leaked to Entertainment Tonight that Ashley and Kevin had split also offered up a little insight into why.
“It was a little weird to have to figure out a long-term plan so soon.”
In other words, they weren’t sure where the relationship was headed just yet.
“Ashley and Kevin were both really into each other, they just weren’t sure if it was a forever thing.”
Perhaps The Bachelor: Winter Games, like all reality shows, it’s always a reliable place to meet your next life partner. Cameras don’t let you tell the whole story, even to each other.
Another factor was where they each live.
“And it’s hard to date long distance like that.”
Ashley lives in L.A. and Kevin, of course, is Canadian.
Even before Ashley and Kevin were carting off to Disneyland to celebrate their relationship, they were cozying up on camera.
Dean and Lesley won a couple of dates and, after a lot of careful soul-searching, opted to share one of them with Ashley and Kevin.
That super sweet gesture meant that Ashley and Kevin got to make pottery.
Which, very naturally, led to Kevin wrapping his arms around her from behind to guide her in shaping the spinning play.
And … totally pulling off an homage to Ghost in the process.
It was a very sweet moment.
Some would say that Dean and Lesley should have kept that date, since in light of this breakup, it was “wasted.”
Others, however, think that the fun that they had was meaningful and that a relationship doesn’t have to last forever in order to be worth it.
Some can’t help but wonder about Ashley Iaconetti’s famous V-card, since she and Kevin were so happy together for so long.
While it’s no one’s business who does or does not have sex at what time, Ashley wasn’t shy about speaking out about being a virgin at 29.
Virginity is a social construct, but so is money — whether or not you have it can still matter to you and impact how others view you.
A couple of weeks ago, however, Ashley addressed her virginity to Us Weekly, saying:
“I know what everybody’s million dollar question is — have we or have we not? — but I will never, ever, say yes or no to that question.”
It sounds like she’s respecting Kevin’s privacy and laying down some boundaries.
“Just because I’ve been public about it in the past, doesn’t mean that I can’t make something private once somebody else is associated in that topic of my life.”
That’s very sweet of her.
It’s sad that Ashley and Kevin didn’t work out, because many — including their costars like Dean and Lesley — were rooting for them.
Fans have adored Ashley for ages and wanted her to live her best life.
But at least any lingering questions about their breakup will be answered on her next iHeart Radio podcast: The Ben And Ashley I Almost Famous Podcast.
She and Kevin will be speaking about it, which is thoughtful for fans who grew attached to them and also just a sign of real maturity.
It seems safe to say that things between Ashley and Kevin ended much more amicably than they did between some others we could name.

Britney Spears: PISSED at Kevin Federline For Demanding More Child Support!
Our younger readers may not be familiar with the velour track suit come to life that is Kevin Federline, so let us fill you in the saga of the ultimate baby daddy:
Federline married Britney Spears back in 2004, and she’s been paying for that mistake ever since.
While the marriage lasted only a couple years, Federline fathered two children with Spears, which means he’s pretty much hitched his wagon to her star for life.
(Or at least until little Sean and Jayden turn eighteen.)
And these days, K-Fed – as he was known in the dark days of the early ’00s – seems hell-bent on getting the most out of this arrangement.
It seems Federline wants more child support money from Spears, and sources say he’s willing to take her to court if he has to.
And according to US Weekly, Brit is downright fuming over her ex’s audacity:
“She’s angry Kevin is asking for more money because she pays for everything,” says an insider, who describes Britney and Kevin’s relationship as “strained.”
“Those boys are her world. She is an amazing mother.”
Child support beefs amongst rich people are always a little hilarious since it’s not like anyone is struggling to pay for groceries here.
It’s more like Kevin takes the kids to Disneyland he just pays for admission, while Brit rents out the entire park and has it closed to the public so there are no lines for the rides.
There are numerous reasons why it’s tempting to side with Brit, not the least of which is that if it weren’t for her financial support, Kevin would probably be popping and locking on a street corner somewhere.
But it’s important to remember that their situation is more complex than that of most celebrity exes.
As you may recall, Brit has had her share of problems over the years.
The consequences of Spears’ 2007 meltdown are still a daily reality for the singer, who is still, in some ways, under the thumb of her father and financial advisor, Jamie Spears.
There were several times in the past decade when it would have been easy to fight for sole custody of the kids, but K-Fed mostly did right by his ex:
“Kevin has always allowed for very liberal visitation,” says the insider. “He has been supportive of her recovery.”
It may have been quite some time ago, but it’s something Brit should probably keep in mind if she plans to square off with Kevin in court.

Kevin Smith Updates Fans on Heart Attack, Gets VERY Emotional
Kevin Smith is known for making people laugh.
But the man behind such movies as Clerks and Mallrats recently went through an extremely serious situation.
As previously reported on The Hollywood Gossip, Smith suffered a massive heart attack shortly after completing a comedy show in Arizona on Sunday night.
The director/producer/writer shared the following selfie from his hospital bed on social media and explained what happened to his fans as follows:
"I felt kinda nauseous. I threw up a little but it didn’t seem to help. Then I started sweating buckets and my chest felt heavy. Turns out I had a massive heart attack…
"The Doctor who saved my life at the #glendale hospital told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (also known as "the Widow-Maker" because when it goes, you’re a goner)."
YIKES, right?
Two days after this near-death experience, Smith recorded a lengthy video of himself on Facebook in order to update his followers on his condition.
And, as you might expect, things got emotional.
"Hey, it"s me. I"m fine…kinda," Smith opened, attempting to joke around about what he"s been through and what he is still going through.
Smith then took folks through the full chain of events, from the moment he started feeling sick backstage ("I was honestly under the impression that I had gotten some f-cking bad milk") to struggling to catch his breath.
After realizing something was very much wrong, he got into an ambulance and sped away to Glendale Adventist Medical Center, where the ER doctors immediately realized the star had suffered a serious heart attack.
These physicians had to go in through Smith"s groin to address the issue, which prompted Smith to joke again:
"My biggest fear in life: death—number one. Number two: people seeing my dick."
Soon enough, though, the joking came to an end.
"It was kind of like reading your eulogy," he added, saying into the camera:
"I saw what life will be like when I die – kind of what the reaction would be if I died. It was very, very sweet."
Smith eventually got choked up and concluded:
"I just thought about everything and thought about my parents and how they raised me and my brother and my sister and my friends and my wife and my kid and this weird wonderful career that I"ve had for so long and stuff and I was like content."
"What a ride it"s been," he said. "What an incredible f-cking ride."

Kevin Federline: Britney Spears Should Gimme More Child Support
Britney Spears has brought countless gifts in the world. While most of those are in the form of her music, she also gave birth to her sons, Sean Preston Federline and Jayden James Federline.
And while their mother is one of the most famous and talented people on the planet, at the moment, it’s their father who’s making waves.
According to this report, Kevin Federline is attempting to get more child support money out of Britney.
Britney Spears is an absolute legend who walks among us.
While we can all take a moment each day to be thankful that, of all of the years of human history, we were lucky enough to live in the same time period as Britney Spears, the vast majority were not actually married to her.
But Kevin Federline was, from 2004 until 2007.
Though their union was clearly not meant to last, they’ll forever be linked by their precious sons — Sean Preston and Jayden James.
And, of course, by the accompanying child support payments.
As one can imagine, it’s Britney who pays Kevin and not the other way around.
Apparently, she currently sends baby daddy Kevin $ 20,000 per month for child-support.
For normal people, that’s a huge amount of money. Even if Sean Preston and Jayden spent every single day with their father, and they do not, it’s unlikely that the two of them would be costing $ 666 dollars every single day.
(Of course, for celebrities, there are concerns like security and often private schools and transportation, so we can see how the added expenses add up … even to nearly a quarter of a million dollars per year)
However, that payout was determined a decade ago, when the couple split. At the time, Britney was dealing with personal mental health issues and wasn’t really performing full-time.
Compare that and how her finances must have looked to now, when she just finished her Vegas residency and is about to go on tour.
And now a report from The Blast claims that Kevin Federline is requesting more money in the form of child support.
Apparently, an attorney acting on Kevin’s behalf filed papers to that effect.
Though there’s no actual mention of how much money he’s looking for, he wants, well, more.
In part, people may assume that this is a money-grab.
At the same time, child support is determined in part, not just by how much time the children spend with each parent, but also based upon a percentage of the parent’s income.
Considering that Britney reportedly made something in the neighborhood of $ 15 million per year during her Vegas residency (and nearly twice what she pays Kevin Federline annually at each individual show), some would say that Kevin Federline is due for an upgrade.
Apparently, he’s not looking for a nasty public battle or even a drawn out one.
And it’s possible that, if his requests are reasonable, he’ll get what he’s asking for.
Britney Spears famously adores her sons.
Years ago, she knew that she didn’t want to repeat the mistakes that her own parents made, and resolved to be the best possible mother to her boys.
(She took match classes herself so that she could help her sons with their homework — most parents would have just hired a tutor for the boys)
Britney is a woman with one of the most powerful social media platforms on the planet.
Do you know what she uses it for? Often, to praise her sons. Recently, she’s been showcasing their Dragon Ball Z art and praising their technique.
(They’re genuinely skilled young artists who are really getting the hang of things like perspective)
It wouldn’t be surprising if Kevin Federline gets what he’s asking for, largely because it could mean that her sons can live in more opulence when they’re spending time with their father.
But we’ll see how all of this pans out. There could be a lot going on that isn’t public knowledge.
Yet.
Kevin Smith Suffers "Massive Heart Attack," Receives Support From Fans
Scary news from one of Hollywood’s most beloved filmmakers.
Kevin Smith revealed to fans last night that he’s been hospitalized after suffering a near-fatal heart attack.
“After the first show this evening, I had a massive heart attack,” Smith tweeted, along with the image above.
“The Doctor who saved my life told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (aka “the Widow-Maker”). If I hadn’t canceled show 2 to go to the hospital, I would’ve died tonight. But for now, I’m still above ground!”
Smith was filming a standup comedy special at Alex Theatre in Glendale, California the night of the incident.
His cardiac event apparently took place sometime between the 6 pm and 9 pm shows.
Sources say Smith “felt ill” following his early show and was taken to a nearby hospital.
Smith got his start in the industry with the influential, self-financed cult comedy Clerks in 1994.
He’s worked non-stop in the decades since, most recently helming the feature Yoga Hosers and an episode of the CW series The Flash.
A new season of Smith’s reality series, Comic Book Men, premiered on AMC last night.
Back in 2015, Smith lost 85 pounds and stated that he believed he was in the best shape of his life.
News of Smith’s heart attack quickly made him a trending topic on Twitter, where fans and a legion of famous friends pid tribute:
“Kevin we don’t know each other too good but I have loved you since Clerks and I’m praying my ass off for you cause I believe in the healing power of prayer. Can you please pray with me people!?” tweeted Chris Pratt.
“Fans of Kevin Smith please take comfort he is in a good hospital with great doctors but if he needs 2nd or 3rd opinions from the worlds finest cardiologists we’ve got him covered too,” wrote Tom Arnold.
Sources close to Smith say that the filmmaker is resting comfortably and eager to begin the long recovery process.
Our thoughts go out to Smith and his family during this difficult time.
Kevin Smith Suffers Massive Heart Attack
The world almost lost a beloved talent last night.
Kevin Smith, the accomplished director who may still be best known for playing the titular Silent Bob, had to cancel his second stand-up show because he suffered a massive heart attack.
He lived to tell the tale, and immediately took to social media to share his harrowing experience.
In the wee hours of Monday morning (really, what most of us would consider late Sunday night), Kevin Smith shared this hospital selfie across social media platforms.
In his tweet, he wrote:
“After the first show this evening, I had a massive heart attack. The Doctor who saved my life told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (aka ‘the Widow-Maker’). If I hadn’t canceled show 2 to go to the hospital, I would’ve died tonight. But for now, I’m still above ground!”
Just hours before, he’d shared this (below) image of himself — he was so excited to shoot his comedy special.
Now, he knows that he’s extremely lucky to be alive.
Taking to Facebook, Kevin Smith elaborated on everything that had happened.
“I was trying to do a killer standup special this evening but I might’ve gone too far.”
He’s making bad puns — that’s a good sign.
“After the first show, I felt kinda nauseous. I threw up a little but it didn’t seem to help. Then I started sweating buckets and my chest felt heavy. Turns out I had a massive heart attack.”
Yeah, those are huge warning signs that something is off, folks.
“The Doctor who saved my life at the #glendale hospital told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (also known as ‘the Widow-Maker’ because when it goes, you’re a goner).”
That sounds absolutely horrifying. Still, he seems focused on apologizing to his fans.
“If I hadn’t canceled the second show to go to the hospital, the Doc said I would’ve died tonight. For now, I’m still above ground! But this is what I learned about myself during this crisis: death was always the thing I was most terrified of in life.”
That’s relatable.
“When the time came, I never imagined I’d ever be able to die with dignity – I assumed I’d die screaming, like my Dad (who lost his life to a massive heart attack).”
He continues, reflecting on what flashed through his mind as he wrestled with the Grim Reaper.
“But even as they cut into my groin to slip a stent into the lethal Widow-Maker, I was filled with a sense of calm.”
Most imagine that they would feel the opposite of that.
“I’ve had a great life: loved by parents who raised me to become the individual I am. I’ve had a weird, wonderful career in all sorts of media, amazing friends, the best wife in the world and an incredible daughter who made me a Dad.”
His daughter of course is Harley Quinn Smith, named for the beloved and iconic DC character — both supervillain and anti-hero — originally conceived for Batman: The Animated Series in the 1990s.
“But as I stared into the infinite, I realized I was relatively content. Yes, I’d miss life as it moved on without me – and I was bummed we weren’t gonna get to make #jayandsilentbobreboot before I shuffled loose the mortal coil.”
You really have to love your job if your potentially-dying thoughts are about work.
“But generally speaking, I was okay with the end, if this was gonna be it. I’ve gotten to do so many cool things and I’ve had so many adventures – how could I be shitty about finally paying the tab. But the good folks at the Glendale hospital had other plans and the expertise to mend me.”
He continues with his takeaways.
“Total strangers saved my life tonight (as well as my friends @jordanmonsanto & @iamemilydawn, who called the ambulance).”
Important to give credit where credit is due.
“This is all a part of my mythology now and I’m sure I’ll be facing some lifestyle changes (maybe it’s time to go Vegan).”
His daughter is vegan, so we’re sure that she would be overjoyed. (Though not all vegan diets are healthier than non-vegan)
“But the point of this post is to tell you that I faced my greatest fear tonight… and it wasn’t as bad as I’ve always imagined it’d be. I don’t want my life to end but if it ends, I can’t complain. It was such a gift.“
That is some heavy stuff.
(Here he is in a 2017 photo with Gary Fisher, the beloved support animal of the late, great Carrie Fisher)
You can tell that Kevin Smith is either very dedicated to reassuring his fans or just not a meme enthusiast. Any Millennial or Gen Z sharing a selfie from a hospital bed would caption it: “I lived bitch.”
(My friend had cancer surgery last year and that’s how she announced that she was out of it)
But Kevin Smith’s post is beautiful and informative and astoundingly bittersweet.
He survived, but he’ll need to spend time recovering — in addition to the heart attack itself, he does mention that the doctors made a hole in him.
Let’s hope that he makes a speedy and full recovery and lives a long life.
It was a very close call.
