Javi Marroquin: Why Doesn"t He Get As Much Hate as Kailyn Lowry?!

If you"re a Kailyn Lowry fan, then you"re probably aware that the Teen Mom 2 star"s life is loaded with drama.

And you"re probably also aware that she receives a tremendous amount of hate from fans, many of whom are relentlessly brutal in their social media comments.

These days, TM2 obsessives are primarily interested in the love triangle involving Kailyn, her ex-husband, Javi Marroquin, and their co-star Briana DeJesus.

Despite doing her best to avoid getting too deeply involved in the situation, Kailyn is taking harsher criticism than ever, while Javi appears to have been let off the hook entirely.

So what"s the deal? 

Is it a sexist double standard, or is Javi actually less responsible for the deterioration of the relationship than Kail is?

Join us as we explore this question in the gallery below, and watch Teen Mom 2 online for more on the wild life of Kailyn Lowry.

1. A Messy Split

As fans know, Kailyn and Javi went from TM2’s most celebrated couple to the show’s most bitter rivals in record time. In the year since their divorce was finalized, it appears that Lowry and Marroquin’s relationship has only worsened.

2. A Slow Deterioration

It’s hard to believe now, but there was a time when it really looked as though Kail and Javi would be able to form a civil and amicable co-parenting relationship–an arrangement that’s been attempted by many Teen Mom couples, but rarely attained. Unfortunately, the former couple’s tenuous peace didn’t last long.

3. A Secretive Split

Fans weren’t aware at the time, but it seems Kailyn and Javi began working out the terms of their divorce prior to his deployment with the US Air Force. It was said to be a mutual split, but it wouldn’t be long before things got ugly …

4. Cutting Up in Qatar

Kailyn says Javi cheated on her repeatedly during their marriage, and while he claims he didn’t start dating until their divorce was finalized, she insists she has photographic evidence that he was with at least one another woman during his time in Qatar.

5. Javi Drama

Things rapidly got worse when Marroquin returned to the States. Within weeks, the peaceful co-parenting arrangement he and Kailyn had dreamed of had become a distant memory.

6. A Jealous Ex?

Sources say Marroquin became upset by news that Kailyn was dating again. And what happened next made him downright livid …

90 Day Fiance: How Much Are The Stars Paid?

90 Day Fiance is still running and has three different spin-offs. It’s a successful series. But … how much are the stars actually paid?

Two recent guests on the series are exploiting a loophole to reveal everything about what goes on behind the scenes, and they’re not holding back.

And yes, they’re letting us know exactly how much this pays. Though we’ve had our suspicions about this series for a while now, seeing the actual numbers in front of us was a real shock.

The 90 Day Fiance couples that we know and love (or know and whatever) give out whatever updates they can.

Remember how Mohamed Jbali has been giving moving updates? He has now in Texas.

And Paola Mayfield has apologized for her and her husband’s controversial Halloween costumes.

But there’s only so much that they can tell us about what went on behind the scenes on 90 Day Fiance. Because, well, reality shows come with contracts.

If you want to get paid for being on a reality show, whether you’re one of the stars or just behind the scenes, it’s standard for you to sign documents that you won’t reveal trade secrets.

Plenty of jobs come with those, in fact.

Since nobody stars on reality shows just for charity and since nobody just volunteers to film or edit a reality series solely for fun, no one who knows details — like how much the stars of 90 Day Fiance are paid — is at liberty to say, right?

Until now, that is.

Annie is from Thailand and David is from the US.

There’s so much to their story — Annie comes from extreme poverty, David is fresh out of a divorce (and lost a lot of weight, too).

David is about twice her age, Annie is hoping to live in comfort and she’s been a little surprised that David isn’t as rich as she’d imagined.

Nothing in their story was too painfully awkward, though, until this last episode.

David and Annie were offered a place to stay by Chris’ good friend, Chris, and Chris’ pregnant wife, Nikki.

In a jaw-dropping, horrifying scene, Chris suggests that Annie could “pay him back” for letting them stay there … by giving him a massage.

Now, especially in the wake of the Weinstein scandal, we hope that we don’t need to explain that “massage” is too often a code for someone trying to leverage a sexual encounter.

(And, worst of all, when it’s a white guy asking an Asian woman, there are often racist undertones because of a long history of racist perceptions of Asian women within the US)

Chris asked this in front of his wife, by the way. It was a shocking moment.

To all of us — but not to anyone on the show. Because Nikki and Chris have taken to social media to clear things up. And they say that Chris’ overture was scripted.

“Yes, the awkward scene of Chris asking for a massage was SCRIPTED,” Nikki posted.

“The producer asked him to say it & Chris had to say it more than once because it didn’t come off as natural.”

Honestly, it’s hard to imagine being talked into that, but when you’re doing a favor for a friend, it’s easy to feel pressured to go along with things to help your buddy out.

“We were fed our lines while sitting at the table, which is why no one reacted. WE ALL KNEW WHAT TO EXPECT.”

That, folks, is not how reality shows are supposed to work. Little prompts, like what topic to cover, are normal. Edits are normal.

What Chris and Nikki described is not normal for reality shows.

Nikki is eager to let the world know: “I’m a very outspoken person you’d be a fool to think I just sat there & [allowed] my husband to disrespect me, Annie, & our marriage.”

Good that she included Annie in that.

How can they reveal this? Well, Nikki and Chris say that they aren’t under contract with TLC or the production company and weren’t in any way paid to appear on the show.

(They only agreed to it as a favor for Chris)

So: how much do 90 Day Fiance stars make?

According to Chris and Nikki, David only makes about $ 1,000 per episode, and was paid $ 2,500 to appear in the tell-all.

Look, $ 1,000 is a nice thing to make, but remember that 90 Day Fiance stars don’t appear in every episode. For a successful reality series, these numbers are shockingly low.

For a little perspective, the good folks over at Starcasm compared 90 Day Fiance income to that sweet, sweet Teen Mom money.

We know that Teen Mom 2 stars are banking about a quarter of a million dollars, or more, every year. Even the dads who appear on the show are making six digits.

Now, 90 Day Fiance isn’t supposed to be anybody’s full time job, which is good — because it sounds like that would put David below the poverty line.

But 90 Day Fiance does at least as well, and sometimes better, in ratings than Teen Mom does. (It looks like slightly more viewers, but slightly fewer in the coveted still-culturally-relevant age demographic)

We imagine that couples like Paola and Russ are making a little more than a brand new star like Chris, but … how much more?

It sounds like part of 90 Day Fiance‘s success is that they’re not paying their actors anything close to what we’d consider to be industry standards.

Which might be even shadier than the accusation that they also go to such lengths to stir up drama where it doesn’t exist.

Chris and Nikki suggested that they might have more to reveal in coming weeks, as new episodes air. We’ll be interested to find out what they choose to share.

Duggar Family Salaries Revealed: They Make HOW MUCH Per Episode?!

Say what you will about the members of the Duggar family, they learn to master the invaluable skill of making a buck from a young age.

Under the tutelage of real estate agent-turned-politician-turned-media-mogul Jim Bob, the Duggar children have learned that no work is beneath them, just as long as it lines their pockets.

Bonus points if the “work” doesn’t require any actual work.

So while it’s the car-flipping and homemaking that receive the most screen time on Counting On, it’s the management of a TV empire that takes up most of the Duggars’ days.

And you probably won’t be surprised to learn that Jim Bob and company are rewarded handsomely for their efforts.

According to a new report from In Touch, reality families on basic cable networks typically earn between $ 25,000 and $ 40,000 per episode.

On top of that, as executive producers, the Duggars are probably rewarded handsomely for reaching certain ratings goals.

And as veteran reality show producer Terence Michael points out, the Duggars home network, TLC, has a reputation for being extremely generous with its top talent.

In fact, Kate Gosselin and family reportedly topped out at about $ 75,000 per episode at the height of their popularity.

It’s also possible that the size of the Duggar clan has been taken into consideration when determining their salary.

After all, that low-ball estimate of $ 25,000 grand may sound like a lot of money, but not when it’s being divided among a dozen or so adults with an ever-growing number of mouths to feed.

So taking into consideration the facts that the Duggar clan was once very popular and is now about the size of a small city, their rate per episode is probably roughly that of Jon and Kate.

The Duggars do multiple seasons per year, and they’ve cranked out an impressive 46 episodes since their new show rose from the ashes of 19 Kids and Counting back in 2015.

Not counting bonuses and other perks (of wish there are probably plenty) that’s nearly $ 3.5 million for less than three years’ work.

Again, not a jaw-dropping quantity of cash, but a pretty nice stream of capital for a family that loves to make their money work for them.

Though the Duggars have been called the Kardashians of Arkansas, that description isn’t entirely accurate.

There are no lavish status symbols being purchased with Counting On cash.

Jim Bob’s hoarding tendencies are well-documented, but for the most part, insiders who know them best say the bulk of Jim Bob and Michelle’s wealth gets re-invested in their business ventures, which these days primarily consist of house and car flipping.

Unfortunately, it seems the younger generation isn’t quite as prudent with their spending.

Not only are they do they lack Jim Bob’s interest in buying and selling houses and cars, some of them don’t appear to be supplementing their incomes in any way, despite enjoying a considerable amount of free time.

For example, Jill Duggar’s husband, Derick Dillard, has never held down a job in his time as a married man.

The Dillards have begged for “donations” from fans in the past, and many have wondered how they could possibly be so hard-up for cash.

The answer of course, is that $ 1 million per year is a lot for a large family if they’re smart about–and doesn’t look as though Jill and Derick are.

It may be time for Jim Bob to fork over some cash to pay for financial literacy lessons for some of his less business-savvy kids.

Kim Kardashian: Surrogate Due MUCH Sooner Than Expected!

As you’ve likely heard by now, Kim Kardashian is expecting her third child via surrogate.

We know quite a bit about Kim’s surrogate, but all parties involved have done an impressive job of keeping certain important pieces of information out of the headlines.

For instance, we don’t even know the name of the woman who’s carrying Kim’s baby.

(However, we do know that Kylie is not the surrogate, which was a fun little rumor for a while.)

Just as importantly, we don’t really know when Kim’s durrogate is due.

There have been countless rumors about when exactly North and Saint will have a new little brother or sister, but no official word from the Kardashian kamp.

To be clear–there’s still no official word from the Kard clan, but Us Weekly has spoken with a source who’s confident that Kim and Kanye are expecing yet another December baby.

“Kim’s surrogate is due before Christmas,” an insider tells the tabloid.

Yes, it seems we’re less than two months away from another new addition for the Kardashian-West clan.

(Rumors that Kim is having twins are still circulating on social media, but insiders are convinced the surrogate is only carrying one baby.)

Of course, little Saint West will be celebrating his second birthday on December 5.

We can’t help but wonder if Kim and Kanye will keep the “Away In a Manger” vibe going with another religios name.

Jesus West would be too, obvious, and Kanye won’t want to give that one away, as he’s probably still expecting to find out that he’s the second coming.

We suppose they could go the metal route with Judas West, but that’s really setting up a lifetime of sibling rivalry with Saint.

Maybe Bethlehem West? Nazareth? 

How about Mythical Transubstantiation West?

Who are we kidding?

This is Kanye we’re talking about.

Kylie Cosmetics Made THIS Much Money, Kris Jenner Reveals

The ultimate momager looks like the cat who ate the canary, and not without cause.

In the video below, Kris Jenner is talking about where Kylie Cosmetics is going in the future, how Kylie manages it all, and the ludicrous amount of money that her daughter"s company has made in just 18 months.

And, at the same time, she"s giving us some insight into how she found comfort despite Kylie"s teen pregnancy.

If Kris Jenner were a cartoon character, her eyes would have become dollar signs several times during this interview.

"Maternal pride" doesn"t even begin to describe what the momager is clearly feeling in this video.

See, Kylie Jenner just entered the makeup business, what … two years ago? 

Overnight, she became a makeup mogul.

Whenever she puts out products, they sell out. Pretty much immediately.

According to projections, the teen tycoon"s business, Kylie Cosmetics, will be worth a billion dollars within five years.

But … how much has the company already made?

Kris Jenner has revealed that her youngest daughter"s company has made $ 420 million.

(Blaze it?)

All in just her first 18 months of operating.

The vast majority of people on Earth won"t make 1% of that during their entire lifetimes.

In fact, it"s more standard for someone to make, what, one five-thousandth of that in that amount of time.

Kris looks pleased as punch about the whole thing, because of course she does.

One, she"s proud of her daughter — her youngest, in fact — for maximizing her social media influence and then so effectively transforming that into financial success.

Two, she"s manager to all of her children, right? So … we"d imagine that she gets a cut. She doesn"t say that, but … we wouldn"t be surprised.

Kris Jenner teases the idea that Kylie might one day look for a business partnership with a major brand.

But right now, it"s all Kylie"s money propping it up. No investors means that Kylie"s in control.

(With some advice from momager dearest, of course)

Kris also talks about where she imagines that Kylie Cosmetics might go in the future.

"The goal in the future is to just build the whole infrastructure, and figure out what a retail model might look like that could take it globally."

So it"s all about world domination, basically.

She mentions that getting into the Middle Eastern market would be a goal. Potentially.

But Kris emphasizes that Kylie has a wealth of options.

"She’s just scratched the surface and there is so much more to do with the brand."

We"d say so.

So, what insight does all of this lend us to how Kris Jenner made peace with Kylie getting knocked up by a rebound guy at 19?

Simple. We imagine that Kris just looked at the big picture.

As long as Kylie is raking in the big bucks — the biggest possible bucks — with the power of her brand and with her makeup empire, does Kris really care what she does?

You know how there are some parents who don"t assign a curfew so long as their teenager isn"t getting into trouble and is still a straight A student?

Well, the momager equivalent of that is not caring about your daughter"s "questionable" life decisions if her business empire is dominating the market.

That"s our guess, of course — Kris" private thoughts are, well, private.

In this whole video, though, Kris is bursting with pride.

Kardashians Ink New Deal with E! for HOW MUCH?!?

Remember just a few months ago? All those rumors of Keeping with the Kardashians getting canceled?

This is how members of reality TV’s most famous family are now reacting to such speculation:

HAHAHAHAHA!

Not only are they laughing; they are laughing all the way to the bank.

Actually, they are laughing all the way to the bank, stopping for a meal at a five-star restaurant, buying a new sports car and then laughing some more on the way to a second bank.

Why?

Because TMZ has confirmed that the Kardashians/Jenners have signed a new deal with E! for a whopping $ 150 million overall.

Here are the reported details of the mammoth contract:

• Kris Jenner will earn the manager’s fee of 10% right off the top, meaning she walks away with $ 15 million.


• As a cast member on the show itself, though, she will also see a cut of the remaining $ 135 million.


• The deal is for five “cycles,” or seasons.


• It runs through 2019.


• The total amount is a huge raise from the last contract the Kardashians signed with E!, which paid them $ 100 million total.

The deal is also for more than merely filming episodes of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

While specifics are not clear, it includes promotional appearances, interviews, etc. The network is paying “for all services rendered by the Kardashians,” according to TMZ.

As for how the money will be divided up?

Sources indicate that at least half of the payout will go to Kim, Khloe and Kourtney.

They’ll earn the most, even if it seems as if their stock has fallen a bit, while Kylie Jenner’s is very much on the rise.

But producers don’t want to mess with what has been a wild success thus far – and that success has been to focus on the lives of the three oldest sisters, Kim most prominently.

Kylie will earn the fourth most. (But don’t cry too hard for her; Kylie Cosmetics isn’t doing too poorly.)

Kendall will earn the fifth most because she has a busy modeling career that often supersedes her commitments to the series.

And Rob will earn the least of all his siblings because… come on, it’s Rob. The guy is a mess and often falls off the radar for months at a time. 

On Monday night, meanwhile, Kris Jenner shared the photo above, prompting social media users to joke that she was rubbing it in everyone’s faces how she is so rich and we’re all so poor.

Guess it wasn’t a joke.

The family, of course, will not be lacking for storylines moving forward:

Kim and Kanye West will adopt a third child early next year after their surrogate gives birth.

Kylie is pregnant. And Khloe is pregnant, too!

Both women are expected to become mothers some time next spring. Is this a crazy coincidence?

Or, considering this contract news, is it possible the sisters somehow planned their pregnancies as a negotiating tactic?

Serioisly, would anything surprise you at this point when it comes to the Kardashians?

View Slideshow: Keeping Up with the Kardashians: 14 Shocking Secrets Revealed!

So there you have it.

The Kardashians and the Jenners really have owned the past decade.

At this point, they’ll own the next one as well.

We might as well all get used to it.

Or figure out a way to move to Mars.

Danielle Bregoli Net Worth: How Much is Bhad Bhabie Making?

It turns out that the “cash” in “cash me ousside” has now become literal cash.

That’s right, folks — a poorly behaved 14-year-old is living what some would describe as a total perversion of the American dream, and she’s taking it all the way to the bank.

As depressing as that is, you have to hear how much money she’s about to be worth.

Danielle Bregoli rose to fame thanks to her appearance on Dr. Phil. Yet another grievance that many have with the Walrus Man.

At the time, she was a poorly behaved 13-year-old whose out-of-control behavior had gotten her on the show in the first place.

(One of her instances of wrongdoing was stealing her mother’s car, which … that would be bad at 16 or whatever the driving age is in the hellscape of Florida, but there are even more reasons for which 13-year-olds should not be stealing cars)

Now, Danielle Bregoli has been sentenced to probation for these offenses — though, if she violates them, you will cash her in jail.

But why she went on the show is no longer relevant.

See, at one point, the audience laughed at her — at her expense, not along with her joke.

Like an angry 13-year-old, she lashed out verbally, saying “cash me ousside, howbow dah?”

(In more formal language, which humans who didn’t grow up with Danielle Bregoli’s awful mom use, that means “meet me outside so that we can fight, okay?”)

She immediately became an internet sensation, a meme, and a minor celebrity.

She wasn’t about to ignore that and shrink back into obscurity. She now has a social media presence, a ridiculous new music career, and her very own reality series in the works.

Also, she met Kim Kardashian. Howbow dah?

But how much is Danielle, who is now 14, making while doing all of this?

We’ve spoken about Danielle Bregoli’s net worth before, but a lot has changed in half a year.

Even with the reality series still not out, Danielle — styling herself with the “Bhad Bhabie” moniker because she lives to make us rub our temples with emotional fatigue — has music out.

She’s been doing endorsement deals via social media, sometimes misusing slang in what must be a tongue-in-cheek mockery of the companies paying her for these ads.

(Seriously, in one Instagram ad she captioned “Ruffles are bae,” which she must have meant as a joke)

But her album deal alone is reportedly a million-dollar deal.

The album in turn is going to increase her expected revenues from product endorsements on social media, so we can expect that number to go up.

And then her reality television project could increase that substantially.

Inquisitr projects that Danielle Bregoli’s net worth could be as much as $ 10 million, and relatively soon.

That’s with the endorsements, the recording contracts, and the reality series combined.

That puts her considerably shy of Kylie Jenner’s makeup business, which is projected to be worth a billion dollars in just five years.

But that’s still a huge deal, for anyone.

We’re torn between being happy that Danielle is getting a second chance at life and could potentially turn her life around and being horrified that terrible behavior can get you rich while good, hard-working people suffer and die in poverty.

The world is a strange place.

Rain Brown: See the Alaskan Bush People Star"s Selfies That Get So Much Hate!

Alaskan Bush People has captivated viewers and fans for years and years.

For the youngest member of the Brown family, Rain, the series has gone on for half of her life.

Despite her youth, though, Rain or "Rainy"s" social media presence is quickly working to make her among the most recognizable members of the Brown family.

Her full name is Merry Christmas Katherine Raindrop "Rainy" Brown, which is honestly amazing … especially considering the fact that she was born in November. It wasn"t even Thanksgiving yet when she was born, on November 23rd, 2002.

Rain"s Instagram following by her "Rainbows" — what she calls her fans — is booming. She"s unfortunately gotten some hate, but she"s not the only one of her siblings to be targeted by trolls.

A lot of that hate was related to her selfies during her mother"s battle with lung cancer, but as you look through these photos, you"ll see that there"s nothing offensive in them. At all.

Rain Brown is a treasure and, frankly, the internet is lucky to have her.

1. She’s so popular!

On August 1st, Rain Brown gave a shout-out after reaching the milestone of 2,000 fans or “Rainbows,” as she calls them. She’s NOW up to over 21,000 Instagram followers.

2. Can you believe that people send her hateful comments?

Rain snaps selfies and people work up the nerve to troll her in her Instagram comments. Let her live her life!

3. Always stop and smell the flowers!

Rain’s follower count has been blowing up this summer, groiwng more than ten times under two months.

4. Rain loves hanging with her siblings!

Gabe and Bird are Rain’s older siblings, but they’re not too cool to hang out with her. Even if “hanging out” happens at a Santa Monica Target.

5. The only daughters in the whole family

Rain and Bird each have a whole mess of brothers, but they have only one sister. That’s an important bond.

6. Rain Brown and Gabe Brown

Though Gabe has seemed to grow camera-shy lately in terms of Alaskan Bush People, he and Rain are two of the most visible Browns on the interwebs.

Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian: Custody Fight Settled! See How Much Rob Has to Pay!

From that first week of Rob Kardashian’s revenge porn meltdown against Blac Chyna, we’ve been predicting that he’s going to pay dearly for it.

And by “pay,” we mean pay. With cash. To Blac Chyna.

Well, Rob and Chyna have settled their intense custody dispute, and based upon the details … it looks like we were exactly right. This is gonna cost Rob a lot.

Right after the Fourth of July, Rob Kardashian went on a positively Presidential social media rant in the wee hours of that Wednesday morning.

It seemed that he simply could not resist his impulses, and he’s going to be paying for that for a long, long time.

We imagine that he has some regrets.

During that rant, Rob complained that Blac Chyna was cheating on him — despite the fact that they were no longer together.

The biggest deal, though, was that Rob Kardashian posted private, nude images of Blac Chyna — of her butt, her breasts, and one that was pretty much just of her vulva.

Classy guy, that Rob.

That’s not just against Instagram’s policies — for which Rob’s account was shut down (and still doesn’t seem to be back up, which is fair); it’s a little thing called revenge porn and it could get Rob in a lot of trouble.

It definitely didn’t help that Rob, after Instagram shut him out, dumped those images on Twitter to make sure that even more people saw them.

Blac Chyna responded by breaking her silence and accusing Rob Kardashian of domestic violence during their relationship.

That is an extremely serious accusation.

What has followed has been a struggle to reach a custody settlement over their daughter, Dream Kardashian.

Dream, who is 10 months old, should always come first.

TMZ reports that the Rob-Chyna war that has raged in the media and in court has reached a settlement at last.

They’ve agreed to join custody. 

TMZ specifically reports that they’re told that Rob “gets a skosh more than 50% custody,” and your guess as to what that means is probably as good as ours.

Apparently, Rob was initially refusing to pay more than $ 10,000 per month in child support. Blac Chyna wanted more … allegedly as much as $ 50,000.

(Which, for a non-rich person, sounds like plenty … though admittedly, most of us don’t need nannies during our careers or security to keep fans at bay)

In the end, though, Rob reportedly agreed to double his offer.

Blac Chyna gets $ 20,000 a month, every month, to support Dream. Also Rob will pay her legal fees from this courtroom struggle, which obviously do not come cheap.

As part of the agreement, Blac Chyna is dropping any domestic violence charges againt Rob.

A chunk of that money that Rob’s paying in support will apparently go directly to nannies.

According to our research, the normal annual salary for a nanny is $ 25,000 per year.

That probably runs higher in L.A. (because everything does; that’s how cost-of-living works), and even higher for celebrities.

But … unless 10-month-old Dream needs a team of, like, 8 nannies, which we cannot imagine that she does (4, each with reasonably short shifts, or even 6 with normal shifts and working two at a time, would be way more than enough. 1 or 2 is more realistic) … we imagine that some of this money is just Rob paying the price for his actions.

Sometimes, justice is dealt out in settlements instead of court rulings.

We don’t know if that’s the case here, but … everybody gains something from this.

None of this news is going to change Blac Chyna’s image as a gold digger.

But if your digging successfully leads to gold and you get that gold … does it really matter what other people think?

And Blac Chyna got Dream, who is almost impossibly adorable, for her efforts — whether they were gold-digging or whether she genuinely felt affection for Rob in the first place.

After this settlement, though, we have to wonder how many Kardashians and Jenners will be telling Rob that they told him so.

Those who don’t will, we imagine, just be biting their tongues.

Austin Forsyth Celebrates One Year with Joy-Anna Duggar: SO Much Change!

Celebrating one year since he and Joy-Anna Duggar first got together, Austin Forsyth is counting the many blessings in his life.

Courting, getting engaged, getting married and putting a baby inside her, to name a few. In a 12-month span! Putting in work!

In a sweet Instagram post on Thursday, the Counting On star, 23, shared a throwback photo of his wife to commemorate this anniversary.

Smiling with a bouquet of gorgeous orange flowers that he sent her a year ago, Joy could only imagine what the next year would hold.

“One year and a day ago I sent Joy these flowers while I was at flight school,” Austin said (in related news, he went to flight school).

“It’s amazing how life can change in just one year,” he added. “I am so blessed to have a wife that loves Jesus and me. #Godisgood.”

While the past 12 months have undoubtedly been a whirlwind, the twosome were friends for 15 years prior to entering into a courtship.

Joy-Anna, 19, first met Austin when his family moved to Arkansas and started attending the Duggars’ church when he was four!

Last fall, they confirmed their relationship was now courtship-level on a very special episode of Counting On: Jinger’s Wedding.

After a few months, the pair got engaged earlier this year and tied the knot in front of a church full of family and friends in May.

At the end of August, the excitement continued as Joy-Anna and Austin announced they are expecting their first child! Already!

“We’re so happy and thankful to announce that we’re expecting a baby!” Joy-Anna said. “Every child is such a precious gift from God.”

“I’m most looking forward to watching Austin as a dad and raising children together with him,” the mother-to-be said of Forsyth.

This joyous occasion has been marked by some controversy, however, thanks to photos of Joy-Anna Duggar’s baby bump …

More than few Duggar fans are convinced she got pregnant before marriage, given the fact that she got married 15 weeks ago tomorrow.

The image above, and the photo below, show a bump that some feel is unusually large for a girl barely out of her first trimester.

(That assumes the baby’s conception happened on the wedding night itself, too … not that this is out of the realm of possibility.)

All women “show” differently of course, and this wouldn’t typically be subject to intense debate, but these are the Duggars here.

Pre-wedding HUGS are frowned upon. Hugs.

Premarital sex, obviously, simply doesn’t happen, so the idea that Joy and Austin would partake in that is … well, it’s interesting.

Combined with recurring rumors about how Anna Duggar hates Austin, who she considers to be a bad influence of questionable character?

One can see how talk of Austin’s rebellious streak – and a possible shotgun wedding – got started after these pictures came out.

We don’t know that it happened and likely never will, but their history of breaking courtship rules is well documented as well.

Just saying. Food for thought.

Kailyn Lowry: Why Does She Get So Much Hate?

Fact: Kailyn Lowry, at this point in time, is probably the most controversial Teen Mom cast member of them all.

It may sound a little strange when you consider some of the other scandals this amazing reality show has brought us – for instance, Kailyn has never been filmed while high on heroin.

But it’s true.

If there’s any doubt, all you have to do is glance at her social media accounts … you’ll see what we mean real fast.

For example, last week, the Teen Mom 2 star tweeted that she was tired – understandable with a newborn! – but she wanted to try to stay awake so she could watch the latest episode of The Sinner, a new TV show.

Someone actually commented: “You’re staying up for yourself …?”

That’s the kind of reaching people are doing just to hate on her, and most of the comments she gets aren’t as innocent as that.

She’s dealt with people making racist remarks about her children, she constantly gets criticized for her looks.

(Which is silly because, let’s be real, she’s always been pretty.)

Then, when we learned that she’d suffered a miscarriage while married to Javi Marroquin, her ex-husband and the father of her second child.

That event would have been painful enough, even if he hadn’t blamed her for it, some particularly ruthless Teen Mom viewers felt the need to start vicious rumors about that, too.

It’s got to be awful for her.

Like, yeah, she did sign up for a reality show knowing full well that her private life would be filmed, edited, and presented as entertainment for the masses.

But the things people say about her go beyond fair criticism — far, far beyond.

… Why though?

If you actually look at her story, Kailyn has been through so much, and to come out of everything as well as she has is pretty amazing.

Her father abandoned her. Her mother was an alcoholic.

She’s been open about the fact that she had to look out for herself from an extremely young age, because no one else was looking out for her.

When she got pregnant as a teenager, she was forced to move into the home of Jo Rivera (her ex-boyfriend and the father of her first child) and his parents.

Judging by early seasons of Teen Mom 2, this wasn’t exactly a picnic.

After she broke up with Jo, she moved into an apartment with her son Isaac, working hard to support herself and that darling little boy.

In fact, there’s a good chance she’s worked more than any of the other Teen Moms, from those early years to the present day.

She continued working until the MTV money picked up and she was able to devote more of her time to her children and her education.

Speaking of, how many ladies from the show have their Bachelor’s degrees?

One. And her name is Kailyn.

Of course she’s had her controversial moments, some of which she’s brought upon herself, but others which were undoubtedly blown out of proportion because cameras were rolling.

In any case, it goes along with the whole reality show gig, and she’s always been quick to admit her faults.

But to come after her kids, to ignore her accomplishments, or to blame her for things that are completely out of her control?

It really just does not make sense.

Chrissy Teigen: Yes, I Drink Way Too Much

Chrissy Teigen is one of the funniest and most candid celebrities in Hollywood.

Case in point:

She recently told husband John Legend that he couldn’t have sex with her doggy style any longer because she didn’t want him seeing her butt hole…

… and then she told the world this story in a magazine interview.

But it turns out that a major reason why Teigen shares so much with the public is because she drinks a lot of alcohol and it lower her inhibitions.

This is especially true when she attends awards shows, which may explain why she fell asleep at this year’s Oscars.

In a chat with Cosmopolitan published on Monday, the wife of John Legend explained how and why drinking became a part of her routine for these special occasions.

“I got used to being in hair and makeup and having a glass of wine,” she said, adding:

“Then that glass of wine would carry over into me having one before the awards show. And then a bunch at the awards show.

“And then I felt bad for making kind of an ass of myself to people that I really respected.”

Did her drunk state often lead to some very funny Instagram posts? Yes.

But also to many hangovers and feelings of shame the following day.

“That feeling, there’s just nothing like that. You feel horrible,” she told Cosmo. “It’s not a good look for me, for John [Legend], for anybody.”

Teigen went on to reveal a history of alcohol abuse in her family and added that having easy access to drinks (at any time) makes it tough to resist.

“Imagine everything we have,” she said honestly. “Everything is there, always. I don’t know how to go to an awards show and not drink.”

There hasn’t been any kind of intervention, Teigen notes;.

No one close to her has sat Chrissy down for a big talk. She’s simply taken a long look in the literal and figurative mirror.

“Nobody really brought it up to me. They just assumed that it was OK because I always felt OK the next morning. I knew in my heart it wasn’t right.

“It makes you very short with people. People think it’s cutesy and fun to go on these boozy brunches, but there’s more to it.

“I’ve never once been like, ‘I’m sure glad I had that boozy brunch!’”

Because people suck and the Internet is a mean place, users responded to Teigen’s admissions here with cruelty.

They slammed her for her drinking and said they felt sorry for her husband, prompting the star to respond with shock and sadness, as you can see here:

In conclusion, the mother of 16-month old Luna thought back to a “wonderful” trip to Bali during which she never really drank.

She still had a great time and she plans to make this more of a habit.

I used to think it was kind of nutty to have to go totally sober. But now I get it. I don’t want to be that person. … I have to fix myself.”

We applaud your candor and wish you the best of luck, Chrissy.

Kylie Jenner: Look How Much I (And My Boobs) Have Grown!

Kylie Jenner partied with family, friends, and a bootytastic ice sculpture on the eve of her 20th birthday, 

But, in true Kylie form, she also celebrated the occasion with a wildly sexy photoshoot.

Kylie Jenner wasn’t quite in her birthday suit, but … she might as well have been. (Seriously, make sure that your boss isn’t looking over your shoulder for these pics)

Pink is a great color.

We’re not big fans of the color yellow. Like, at all.

But Kylie Jenner might just change our minds about that, because she started off her twenties by sharing some risque photos of herself.

Wearing some very see-through lingerie, naturally.

She captioned this one “20” with a little gold star beside it.

If you’d hopped in a time machine and asked us to identify this photo two years ago, we might have been left scratching our heads.

Kylie Jenner’s been a curvy girl for years, now.

Her hourglass figure is famous.

But over the past year, her bust has increased in size enough that breast implant rumors seem to provide a more plausible explanation than a late spurt of puberty.

Usually, you just recognize somebody’s face, no matter how much their body changes.

Kylie, though … her face has changed a little over the years.

(Not so much in the past two, but her face is partially obscured in this photo anyway)

But you know what’s barely obscured at all?

Her nipples.

Her left nipple, in particular, in that photo.

She’s an adult, so she’s welcome to show as many or as few parts of her flesh prison as she likes.

We guess that Instagram’s unwavering terror in the face of girl nipples is mitigated when there’s something in front of those nipples.

Even if it’s an entirely see-through material.

She captioned that photo “thanks for all the birthday wishes!”

We guess that flashing her nip-nop is just Kylie’s way of showing her appreciation.

Before Kylie even turned 20, she took some photos while lounging by the pool at her mother’s house.

She looks incredible.

Because of course se does.

We don’t want to say that her body looks like it was designed by a man, but … it kind of does.

Her proportions seem to cater to a certain (not universal, but widely appealing) ideal.

Kylie’s been blasted for changing herself for the haters, but we say that so long as her body looks the way that she wants it to, more power to her.

Again, her boobs are so much these days.

Kylie has more to celebrate than a body that looks like it was designed by one of those comic book artists (the ones who draw every woman as a busty contortionist) and her 20th birthday.

Kylie Cosmetics is raking in the dough and may be worth a billion dollars within five short years.

When we refer to Kylie Jenner as a makeup mogul, it’s not just because we enjoy alliteration.

That’s the appropriate thing to call her.

Kylie Cosmetics is booming and it looks like it’s going to stay that way for years to come.

Kylie is also building her own distinct brand to the point where she has her own series, Life of Kylie, which is now airing.

The series follows her life and her friends and the various, um, “hardships” that she faces because she’s Kylie.

Having her own reality series is going to not only provide another revenue stream, but it’s going to help Kylie’s brand become more distinct from that of her family.

Her twenties are going to be pretty exciting.
