Josh Duggar: Using Fake Names to Scam Fans Out of Money?!
Back in 2015, news of the Josh Duggar sex scandals shook fans to their core and threatened to bring an end to the Duggar family’s media empire.
Remarkably, three years later, life has pretty much returned to normal for the Duggars — with the notable exception of Josh, of course.
While his parents and siblings made a rather smooth transition back to the spotlight, Josh remains exiled from both fans and his family.
Currently, Josh works on a used car lot owned by his father, and he lives several miles away from the neighborhood in Tontitown, Arkansas that most of them call home.
Of course, the clearest indicator of the rift between the former lobbyist and the rest of his family might be that Josh no longer worships at the Duggar family church.
Josh is reportedly in dire financial straits, as he attempts to raise five children on a car lot attendant’s salary and with little financial help from his wealthy family.
But that’s just one of the reasons that fans are wary of Josh’s latest “fundraising” efforts.
Josh returned to Facebook this week with little fanfare, and he’s apparently on a mission.
Thus far, Josh’s activity on the site has been extremely limited:
As In Touch Weekly points out, he changed his profile picture to a photo of his son Matthew — and he announced that he’ll be raising money for two family friends who were involved in a car accident.
Of course, this is Josh Duggar we’re talking about, so it wasn’t long before fans noticed something deeply suspicious about his philanthropic efforts.
As one Facebook user quickly pointed out, the fundraiser that Josh is encouraging fans to contribute to was apparently started by someone named Janie Williams.
The only problem there is the fact that Janie doesn’t appear to be a real person.
“Both names are listed on the GoFundMe as running the campaign,” the fan wrote on Facebook.
“When I click on Janie’s name, it led me to Josh’s profile,” she continued.
“I can see Josh using the common [names] Janie/Joe and common last [names] Williams/Smith to try [and] hide. I [don’t see] a Janie Williams listed as a friend on Josh’s page.”
Yes, it appears that Josh has constructed yet another alias for himself.
In the past, he’s been caught using the name Joe Smithson on social media.
And of course, there was the fake Ashley Madison profile that Josh used to try and cheat on his wife.
So what exactly is going on here?
Well, it’s tough to say, but the Duggars have a long history of begging fans for money under suspicious pretenses.
Now, it looks like Josh is attempting to supplement his meager income with a little light fraud.
All in a day’s work for one of the shadiest figures west of the Mississippi.

Catelynn Baltierra Changes Last Names, Sparks Divorce Chatter
GULP.
Might there be trouble in romantic paradise for Catelynn and Tyler Baltierra?
Social media users now have reason to believe that the couple, who has battled through cheating rumors in the past, may be headed for a split as a result of Catelynn doing something drastic online:
She changed her last name.
The Teen Mom"s three million Instagram followers were recently surprised to see what Catelynn is now using "Lowell" on her official page, switching from "Baltierra" to her maiden name because…
… well. We don"t know why.
But it"s worth taking a look through the tandem"s recent history, online and off, to see if this means they"re headed for divorce court:
1. No Happy Wishes Here
Right around the time Catelynn made this switch, we learned that Tyler did NOT wish his wife a happy Mother’s Day. Heck, the two didn’t even spend the holiday together.
2. Where Was Tyler?
The Teen Mom’s dad told Radar Online that his son-in-law was “in Texas visiting his [father]” for Mother’s Day. That can’t be a good sign.
3. And Where Was Catelynn?
Per her dad again: “In Florida with [daughter] Nova, visiting her older sister.” This is nice and all, but not ideal to spend Mother’s Day apart from your husband.
4. Might Personal Troubles Be Affecting the Relationship?
Tyler has admitted that he suffers from Bipolar Disorder, a serious condition that often has a negative effect on one’s relationships. “I’ve been doing non-stop research on the diagnosis, the different remedies to combat symptoms, & how to better understand it,” he wrote on Instagram toward the end of April 2018. “I did refuse medication, but only because I wanted to try all of the natural remedies first. It’s a journey.”
5. A Search for Happiness
“Laying in bed next to my peacefully sleeping wife. I can hear my daughter snoozing away through the monitoring her room. My dog is cuddled up on the floor next to to me… and yet Feel so empty and so alone,” wrote Tyler a few weeks ago, giving followers a glimpse into his sad mental state.
6. Concern All Around
Tyler Baltierra: Is He Suicidal? This was the title of an article we wrote on May 10 (click words above the photo to read), as it shed light on just how worried Teen Mom fans are about Tyler. His mental health comes first, of course, but it’s easy to see how his diagnosis could damage his marriage.

35 Most Ridiculous Celebrity Baby Names of All-Time
From Apple to North to Spurgeon and many, many others compiled here, celebrities sure pick out some hilarious names for their kids.
Not all of them, obvi. Some go the conventional route.
But this is Hollywood, and well, we have no shortage of options while putting together a gallery of unintentional hilariousness like this.
Let"s just say that.
There sure as heck are a disproportionate percentage of little kid names that are straight up ridic, head-scratching, LOL-worthy selections.
Check out the 35 most absurd ones given by the most absurd people now and be glad they make enough money to afford good therapists:
1. North West
North West. The spawn of Kimye being named after a direction may be the dumbest thing in human history. At the same time, if she doesn’t grow up to have a signature fragrance called North by North West, this is not a planet we wanna be living on.
2. Kyd
Yes, Kyd. David Duchovny mailed that one in worse than his alleged acting on Californication.
3. Kal-El Cage
Nicolas Cage named one of his kids Kal-El, a fact not related to him being wasted out of his mind in this mug shot … although that could explain a lot of things.
4. Spurgeon
Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald’s baby son Spurgeon is named after Charles Spurgeon, an influential Baptist preacher from the 19th Century. It also is the subject of an awesome page on Urban Dictionary, and will probably make lil’ Spurge glad he’s home schooled later in life.
5. Rocket Zot (or Ayer)
Avatar star Sam Worthington’s baby name choice for his first child with wife Lara Bingle Worthington – Rocket Zot – was chosen because they liked the way it sounded. That makes two of them … and probably not a whole lot more. Honorable mention to Pharrell Williams’ son Rocket Ayer.
6. Reign Aston Disick
Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick went relatively conventional with their first two children Mason and Penelope. For the third, however, they opted for a name fit for a Lord: REIGN Aston Disick. If only his dad weren’t the deadbeat Lord of six different rehab centers.

Kardashian Baby Names: The Komplete Kountdown!
The Kardashian-Jenner clan now nearly has enough little kids running around to start its own baseball team.
But it"s not the sheer number of sons and daughters shared by Kourtney, Kim, Kylie and Rob that has the Internet abuzz.
It"s the names of these sons and daughters!
We mean no judgment at their expense, of course. They are cute and precious and they have no control over what they are called.
But we do mean to pass A LOT of judgment on their parents for these unique monikers.
Below, we rank the first names of these famous kids, from our absolute favorite to the one we still cannot believe is an actual name…
9. Penelope Disick
This is a nice, normal, very cute name. Do they call her “Penny?” We hope so. Thumbs up all around.
8. North West
First, the nickname “Nori” is sort of adorable. Second, the name may be ridiculous, but she is Kanye and Kim’s kid. Her whole life will be ridiculous. At least her parents leaned into it here.
7. Mason Disick
Strong name. Sounds sort of like a detective on a Shonda Rhimes drama, doesn’t it? Also, like the first two names listed here, not a terrible shortened nickname. Mace. We don’t hate it.
6. True Thompson
Khloe used this photo of a nursery to announce that her daughter is named True Thompson. Put aside her baby daddy’s cheating scandal and everything and… we don’t hate it! It’s alliterative and sort of catchy. And definitely unique… without making us ill. One thumb up!
5. Dream Kardashian
We guess? Any of the following names could go in almost any order at this point… and that’s not a compliment. We just fell off a pretty huge cliff of semi-normalcy.
4. Chicago West
Like we said, we’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel here… already. In this case, we’re relying again on the hope that she is really called “Chi,” which isn’t awful. And we’re giving Kanye some props for remembering when he comes from.

Kylie Jenner BLASTED by Fans Over Racy Makeup Names
Now that Kylie has welcomed baby Stormi Webster into the world, she’s once again back to business as usual on social media. And that means plugging her makeup.
But the makeup mogul’s new line of blushes are receiving a lot of outraged reactions.
It turns out that Kylie’s names for the makeup, targeted at very young teens, is wildly inappropriate.
Before she even became pregnant or turned twenty (which she did in that order), Kylie built a powerful makeup empire.
It started, mostly with her lip kits.
We all know that makeup is expensive and how powerful the Kardashian brand is, but few would have expected for Kylie to blossom into a titan of industry practically overnight.
Today, Kylie Cosmetics is worth so much that it’ll make your head spin — and is projected to be worth one billion dollars within just a few short years.
But not even Kylie’s juggernaut of a brand, undaunted by her months of social media solitude during her pregnancy, is immune to criticism from fans.
And they were horrified to see Kylie’s new blushes. Particularly, their names.
See if you can spot what so many fans found so troubling about Kylie’s new blush names.
A number of Kylie’s fans found those names and others very objectionable.
“When you have millions of teenage fans who look up to you, what do you name your new blushers? ‘Virginity’ ‘Barely legal’ and ‘X-rated’ of course.”
Considering that Kylie was dating Tyga, a grown man and a father, when she was just 17 … Barely Legal seems to be in especially poor taste.
“Really? @KylieJenner. You literally couldn’t think of ANY other names to give them?”
Users bring up that many of Kylie’s most impressionable fans are still in middle school and figuring out who they want to be.
“Seriously @KylieJenner, choose better names for your products. You have 12+ year old fans! ‘Barely Legal,’ ‘Virginity.’”
The choices that tweets and young teens make about how they view sex and sexuality should be theirs to make, not because of the influence of a 20-year-old mom.
One outspoken critic decided to go right for the jugular.
“Kylie Jenner decided to name her cheap blushes with an even cheaper names.”
Kylie’s brushes for her products have notoriously been the subject of complaints by many people who say that the brushes are poor quality and absolutely not worth the price.
“All 14 yr Olds moms will be racing to buy virginity, hot n bothered & barely legal.”
Well, that’s a little hyperbolic.
Naturally, Tyga, who Kris Jenner says is not Kylie’s baby daddy, came up again.
“Seems they’re named after her life, underage dating a 20 something dad.”
They’re still bringing him up even though Kylie’s moved on to a different no-name rapper who is several years older than she is. Come on, folks. Keep up.
Still others continued to excoriate Kylie over this.
“Kylies new blushes which are aimed to her tween/teen market, are called HOT AND BOTHERED- X RATED-VIRGINITY-BARELY LEGAL.”
Again, sexuality is fine, but these tweeters take issue with Kylie’s young and impressionable target audience.
“[What the hell] is wrong with her?”
Kylie’s an adult and a mother, now. They feel that she’s supposed to have a better sense of responsibility.
“Seems she’s getting desperate for [attention] & any way to get her name out there, even at the expense of her young fans is ok. Disgusted.”
Those are some valid points — and, honestly, the line “barely legal” has only gotten creepier with time.
But let’s play devil’s advocate for a moment. Kylie is trying to sell a product.
Not only does she need to draw attention to it (outrage is free advertising, folks), but she wants to sell it to her target audience.
A lot of people buying Kylie’s makeup are going to want to feel more empowered and more sexual. (And hey, more power to them)
After a certain age, plenty of girls stop wanting to buy makeup that’s called Rainbow Stardust or whatever. That’s a normal stage in development.
So maybe Kylie’s secret to success gets her some hate on social media.
It’ll still help her where it counts — and that’s in her bank account.
Remember that Kylie is a mother herself … which means that she’s earning for two.

4. Saint West
Saint is not a name. It’s just not. It’s a designation. There’s no cute shortening of any kind available here and no way to spin the name except that it was a very transparent and lame attempt to be edgy.

Beyonce and Jay Z: Here"s the Meaning Behind the Twins" Names!
Can you believe it’s already been over two months since Beyonce gave birth to the twins?!
The world feels a little bit more magical, doesn’t it?
It feels cuter, and safer, somehow.
It’s a nice feeling.
So far, Beyonce and Jay Z have pretty much kept quiet about their two new bundles of joy.
Basically all we know is that one of the babies is a boy and the other is a girl, and they spent around a week in the hospital after they were born.
They suffered from a minor health issue, most likely jaundice, and required special care, but Beyonce stayed with them until they were able to come home.
We haven’t seen a ton of photos of them yet, but our glorious goddess was gracious enough to share the following photo:
As for our last little bit of knowledge on these kids, we know their names: Rumi and Sir.
When the names were revealed a lot of people were a little … well, they were a little taken aback.
Bey and Jay are free to name their offspring whatever they like, of course, but Rumi and Sir?
Of course, these are also the people who named their first child Blue Ivy, so perhaps we shouldn’t have been surprised at the names they chose.
But hey, we’re only human, and humans who love celebrity gossip at that.
Who are we to be chill about some weird baby names?
The names were revealed nearly two weeks after we heard that Beyonce had given birth, so again, we’ve had about two months to get used to the titles of our newest future overlords.
(We call them overlords, by the way, because if Beyonce’s children don’t grow up to rule the world, then, like, what’s the point?)
Are you feeling them yet?
If not, maybe you will after you hear Jay Z explain why they chose the names they did!
In a new interview, Jay spills all the details — first, for his second daughter, he says “Rumi is our favorite poet, so it was for our daughter.”
And that makes sense, right?
Besides, Rumi is a lovely name! It’s the human whose legal name is Sir that really threw us for a loop.
But, to explain that, he says “Sir was like, man, come out the gate. He carries himself like that.”
“He just came out, like, Sir.”
Fair enough.
Congrats again, Carter family!
