Fergie: Kimye vs Taylor Swift Feud Is A Total Publicity Stunt!

She knows the game.



Fergie went on Australia’s Kyle & Jackie O radio show to promote her new single, “M.I.L.F. $ ,” and talk turned to this summer’s biggest feud.


“Knowing them, it’s probably a big master plan,” Fergie said of Kim Kardashian’s leak of conversations between Kanye West and Taylor Swift over his “Famous” lyrics.


“They’ll probably all come together at the MTV Awards [in late August] or something.”


Fergie does have a point, because this whole thing started in 2009 when West interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video.


On Sunday night, Kardashian leaked West’s phone call with Swift, in which the 1989 singer gave her approval of 


For all my Southside n****s that know me best/ I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex


What the audio didn’t reveal was Swift giving the OK to this line:


“Why? I made that bitch famous /God damn/ I made that bitch famous


The Keeping Up With The Kardashians episode that aired prior to the leak was centered around Kardashian’s fury that Swift claimed not to know the lyrics and was therefore offended.



“do u guys follow me on snap chat?” Kardashian tweeted.  “u really should ;-)”


“Kim’s so cool.  You’ve gotta respect her for sticking up for her husband,” Fergie said of Kardashian’s move.


Scenes from Kardashian’s guest role in M.I.L.F $ were also featured on the episode.


As for Fergie’s theory that the trio will take the stage holding hands and laugh mockingly at us, don’t hold your breath.


“They are sick of Taylor’s manipulations and her good-girl act,” sources told Us Weekly of Kimye’s thoughts on Swift.


“They just wanted to expose her as a fake.”


Will Kardashian and West come face-to-face with Swift at the VMAs?  Will they reveal it was all a big joke? WILL THERE BE PEACE ON EARTH?

Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston: True Love or Brilliant Publicity Stunt?

She has an incredibly loyal following, but even some Taylor Swift’s fans smell a rat when it comes to her relationship with The Night Manager‘s Tom Hiddleston.



The two reportedly started dating a mere two weeks after Swift broke up with DJ Calvin Harris.  


Prior to that, a video surfaced of Swift and Hiddleston dancing together at the Costume Institute Gala back in May.


The pairing would have been normal if not for the “candid” photos of Swift and Hiddleston walking hand-in-hand on the beach, enjoying a holiday in Rome and – most recently – hamming it up together in Rhode Island.


On July 3rd, Swift invited a bunch of celebrity friends to her oceanside home, and photographers snapped photos of the group – which included a very pregnant Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Ruby Rose, Gigi Hadid and Cara Delevignne – splashing around in the ocean.



Hiddleston, who has a truly fantastic body, covered up with an “I Heart T.S” tank top, and donned a temporary heart tattoo (with a “T” in the middle) on his shoulder.



Buzzfeed explored the possibility that both parties are in this for promotional purposes.  In fact, one fan offered up this theory:


“I really think the Taylor Swift /Tom Hiddleston thing could be a music video,” @TattooedTruffle tweeted.


“In fact as a screw you to the media I hope it is.”


The Telegraph‘s Anita Singh was equally skeptical.


“This whole relationship will turn out to be an elaborate piece of performance art, mark my words,” she tweeted.


According to Buzzfeed, Swift has historically released a new album every two years (the last was 1989 in October 2014, which was preceded by the single, “Shake It Off” in August).


So, Swift could be gearing up for a single release this summer.


Hiddleston might be jonesin’ for publicity in order to score an Emmy nod for Manager.


What’s even weirder is that Hiddleston and Swift have been followed by the same paparazzo throughout the entirety of their courtship, suggesting that the photographer has been hired to capture their most romantic moments.


This theory, though unconfirmed, was the topic of conversation among my friends over the Fourth of July weekend.  


One person took a look at Hiddleston in the tank top and said, “They’re f***ing with us.”


So, Swiddleton/Swiddleswift/Tiddleston…whatever you call yourself.  End this dog-and-pony show and just be honest about your motives, because this is getting silly.

Matt Baier: I Don"t Have 7 Kids, Their Moms Want Publicity!

This f—ing guy.



Yesterday, a sneak peek of part two of Teen Mom OG‘s reunion special showed Gary Shirley and Amber Portwood’s fiance Matt Baier embroiled in an argument over Baier’s very shady past.


“This is actually last season stuff that we’re talking about right now,” Baier told Dr. Drew about Shirley accusations (abuse, unpaid child support and a police record).


“And we’re dealing with your whole life of trash, too,” Shirley pointed out.


BURN!


A source on the set told Radar Online that in part two,  Baier claims to have five children, not the seven or eight that have been reported.


 “Matt absolutely denied having seven kids, and said those women are only seeking publicity,” the source said.


“Amber continues to support Matt through all of this.”


Shirley “brought up additional allegations against Matt that have never been made public,” the source added.


“There are serious concerns about Matt and his health.”


Baier is currently being sued for child support from several of his baby mamas.  Not only that, but he’s both taunted and hit on Portwood’s Teen Mom co-stars, including Farrah Abraham, Jenelle Evans and Teen Mom 2’s Kailyn Lowry (he was very cruel to her).


Part two of the reunion special airs next Monday on MTV.

Wait, What?! The Martian Director Says He Knew About Water On Mars "Months Ago" — Did NASA Hold Out For Publicity?

Uhm, come again?


Yesterday brought HUGE news as NASA announced that they could finally confirm there was liquid water on the surface of Mars.


When the news broke, there were several people who believed that NASA knew about this for a while and they were just waiting for the most opportune moment to release their findings.


Photos: Water On Mars Gives These 18 Celebs Who Believe In Aliens A Little More Hope!


This theory is backed up by the fact that that Matt Damon‘s upcoming sci-fi flick The Martian — about an astronaut stranded on Mars — hits theaters Friday!


This was just too much of a coincidence for many people and the director of the movie, Ridley Scott, didn’t help this theory when he revealed:


“I knew that months ago.”



Wha??


Scott went on to say:


“When I first talked to NASA, we got into all kinds of stuff and I said, ‘So I know you’ve got down there [these] massive glaciers.’ And he said, ‘Yeah, that the massive white thing [on the surface of Mars] that gets covered with dust, we think that’s ice.’ And I said, ‘Wow! Does that mean there was an ocean?’ Are we right now what Mars was 750 million years ago?’ And they went, ‘Uh, good question.’ So they want to go up there and find out.”



Unfortunately for the 77-year-old, he didn’t find out about the water on Mars until after the film had gone into production. When asked if it would have changed some of the story, he said:


“[Damon’s astronaut] would’ve found the edge of a glacier, definitely. It would be fascinating,” said Scott. “But then I would’ve lost a great sequence. He has to make water, and the steaming device, and put up the plastic tents, which creates the humidity, which grows the plants, which is the most basic form of irrigation.”



We wonder how long NASA actually knew about this! What else are they keeping from us?! Conspiracy theory time!


What do you think? Are you surprised that this information was kept secret until they could generate a little more press for the space program by releasing it before The Martian?
