Billie Lee: Replacing Kristen Doute on Vanderpump Rules? Accusing Entire Cast of Transphobia?!
Folks, be happy that the cameras are currently rolling for Vanderpump Rules Season 7 because it sounds like sh-t is really hitting the fan in West Hollywood this week.
The drama began with rumors that Kristen Doute had been fired from the show due to her inability or unwillingness to stir up unnecessary drama with her castmates.
If you watched last season, you know Kristen seemed to be content in a stable, committed relationship and wasn’t getting blackout drunk nearly as often.
In other words, she committed each of the reality star cardinal sins, and no one was surprised by news that she’d been banished to Vander-purgatory to await the endtimes in the company of Vail Bloom and Laura Leigh.
“She’s just not crazy Kristen anymore,” one production source bluntly stated.
Kristen denied that she’d been demoted to “friend of the castmates” status, but the rumor resurfaced this week with some new and intriguing details:
According to Radar Online, Kristen will be replaced as a full-time cast member by SUR newcomer Billie Lee.
“She did extremely well,” the source said about Billie Lee’s first season on the show.
“All of the cast loves her — and so did the ratings!”
Of course, it appears the source delivered that quote ahead of the Twitter war that began playing out between Billie Lee and the rest of the cast last night.
It seems the ladies of SUR will be hosting a Tuesday night event at the restaurant called Girls’ Night In.
(What happened to James Kennedy’s See You Next Tuesday? Fingers crossed that shaved ferret got sh-tcanned, too!)
Billie Lee apparently felt that she had been left out of the gathering, and she made her feelings clear in a very irate tweet:
“When yo coworkers don’t include the only trans girl in GIRLS night at your own job! On the night you work! #rudeAF #TransIsBeautiful.” she wrote.
As you can see, it appears that Billie Lee was indeed invited to the event, which may be why Kristen and company were so vehement in defending themselves:
“You better check yourself before you wreck yourself,” Doute tweeted, adding:
“It’s not your event. Don’t make this about something it’s not. #NoH8 … We are not hateful people and ABSOLUTELY support the LGBTQ community. A person is a person is a person.”
Katie Maloney echoed the sentiment, tweeting:
“I’m completely supportive and will always be supportive of the LGBTQ community … EVERYONE is invited and welcome tomorrow!”
It’s possible that Billie Lee was genuinely offended by what she perceived as prejudice among her castmates — but it’s equally possible that she’s stirring up drama to give the people what they want.
And if that’s the case, the girl might have a very bright future at Bravo.

Mackenzie McKee: Joining Teen Mom OG! Officially Replacing Farrah Abraham!
What was long rumored is now official:
Farrah Abraham has been fired from Teen Mom: OG … and the void created by her absence is being filled by a familiar franchise face:
Mackenzie Douthit McKee!
Rumors of Mackenzie replacing Farrah have been swirling in the last few weeks, and for once, it looks like the rumors were true.
As you know, Farrah Abraham was fired by the network, making staggering accusations against MTV on her way out the door.
According to Farrah, producers shamed her for adult industry dealings, discriminated and committed hate crimes against her.
Abraham, who is suing Viacom over her dismissal, recently called for the cancellation of both Teen Mom OG and Teen Mom 2.
Not happening, obviously.
Not long after the special moment when producers fired Farrah (above), they pitched Mackenzie the idea of joining OG in her place.
McKee thought about it long and hard and after talking it over with her family, she reluctantly agreed on a number of conditions.
Ha! Just kidding.
She was all over that s–t like Farrah on a CamSoda live stream, as McKee, 23, had long sought to return to the spotlight.
Once a breakout star of the ill-fated, one-season flop Teen Mom 3, Mackenzie faded into obscurity after the show was axed.
McKee fought long and hard to remain relevant, building her Instagram fitness “brand” and growing her social media presence.
When times were tough, she got into insane public feuds with her husband Josh, possibly to gain celebrity news site coverage.
A year ago, she openly lobbied to join Teen Mom 2, only to have the network go with fellow Teen Mom 3 castoff Briana DeJesus.
The spurned Mackenzie feuded with Briana and let it be known publicly that she was the rightful choice to return to the network.
Finally, her work is paying off.
Not to be deterred, she was in the right place at the right time when Farrah ran afoul of her handlers for the final time last fall.
According to a TMZ report, McKee has officially joined the OG cast, and she’s already shooting scenes for upcoming episodes.
They were already shooting a two-hour special with her about her mom’s cancer battle, which she revealed earlier this year.
Mackenzie’s mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 brain cancer, and that heartbreak will be depicted on a special MTV event.
But that’s just the beginning.
Insiders confirm that Mackenzie agreed to step in for Farrah and has been filming for more than a week at home in Oklahoma.
Ryan Edwards’ wife, Mackenzie Standifer, was also considered as MTV’s replacement, and appeared to have the upper hand.
Standifer, being married to Maci Bookout’s ex, was already on the show in a sense and did not need to be introduced to fans.
Ultimately, that worked against her, as she will likely continue to be on the show as long as Ryan is … and he is a lot lately.
Enter Mrs. McKee.
The seemingly innocent Starbucks selfie above signaled that she was back in the fold, as the staff often gets their coffee before filming.
In any case, Mackenzie’s mom is reportedly struggling to pay her medical bills, so you can feel good about her getting paid for this.
Moreover, Teen Mom is often criticized for its negative portrayal of single moms, and McKee may offer a breath of fresh air.
Explosive Facebook fights aside, she is married to the father of her three kids, and retains an enthusiastic fan base online.
Replacing someone as unpopular as Farrah with the beloved Mackenzie may be just the message producers want to send.

Mackenzie McKee: Replacing Farrah Abraham on Teen Mom OG?!
As far as we know, Farrah Abraham is still fired from Teen Mom OG.
She still appears on the show"s current season, but it seems she won"t continue to participate going forward.
Which means the hunt for Farrah"s replacement is on.
Sources have confirmed that two frontrunners emerged early on – Teen Mom 3 star Mackenzie McKee, and Mackenzie Standifer, wife of Teen Mom OG star Ryan Edwards.
At first, it looked as though producers were favoring Standifer, but new information seems to indicate McKee might be the one to land the gig…
1. A Familiar Face
Longtime fans of the Teen Mom franchise will recognize Mackenzie as one of the stars of the short-lived Teen Mom 3. If social media is any indication, fans remained interested in her life in the years since the show was canceled.
2. A Married Mom
A mother of three from Oklahoma, Mackenzie married longtime boyfriend Josh McKee in 2013. Her story was featured on the first and only season of Teen Mom 3.
3. Beat By Briana
When producers decided to add a fifth member to the Teen Mom 2 cast, they reportedly considered Mackenzie, but decided to go with Briana DeJesus instead. McKee was apparently crushed by the decision.
4. A Second Chance
With Farrah being fired, Mackenzie may finally get a second shot at stardom. But she’ll have to beat out yet another rival to earn a spot on one of TV’s most popular reality shows.
5. Battle of the Mackenzies
Ryan Edwards’ wife, Mackenzie Standifer, is also being considered as Farrah’s replacement. There was a time when insiders claimed she had the upper hand, due to the fact that she had already appeared on the show, and thus, did not need to be introduced to viewers.
6. McKee Takes the Lead
But now, Mackenzie is the front-runner, and she recently dropped two clues that have fans thinking she’s already got the job…

Kylie Jenner: Replacing Tyga With Bodyguard Boyfriend?!
Yesterday, rumors that Kylie Jenner had dumped Tyga began to circulate on social media.
We know, we know. You’ve heard that one before.
These two have proven time and again that they just can’t quit one another, but this time there’s reason to believe it’s really over
For starters, Kris Jenner seemed to confirm the breakup over the weekend.
On Mother’s Day, Kris posted an Instagram shout-out to all of her daughters significant others – and Tyga was conspicuously missing from the list.
Of course, that could just mean that Kylizzle and T-Raww were having one of their famous tiffs at the time, and they’ll soon patch things up if they haven’t already.
What really has us believing that Kyga is over for good this time is the online chatter about Kylie and her chiseled bodyguard:
The photo on the left was posted nine weeks ago.
The pic on the right was posted just yesterday.
If you follow Kylie on Instagram, you know she never wears the same thing twice, which means she randomly posted a photo that’s over two months old yesterday.
The reason that’s a big deal is that the last time she posted pics of that particular bodyguard, her fans went nuts, which means Kylie absolutely knew what kind of reaction she would get this time.
Some choice comments:
“Hey what’s up hello to her body guard????????????????”
“O M G????????PLS DROP TYGA????AND DATE THIS GUYYY???? OMDSSSS A BODY GUARD AS UR BOYFRIEND????WHAT ELSE COULD U POSSIBLY NEED OTHER THAN DAHZ????????????”
“He is smokin’ guuurrrl!!!”
You get the idea.
We’re the phrase “YAAAAASSSS!!! SLAY KWEEN!!!” was also used at one point.
We don’t even know this guy’s name yet, but don’t be surprised if you soon see Kylie spending a lot more time with him.
