Amber Rose & Danielle Bregoli Somehow Ended up in a Hot Tub Together

Amber Rose was kidding when she said Danielle Bregoli was her daughter … but she left no doubt she’s a Bregoli fan. Amber and Danielle — aka Bhad Bhabie — each posted this video on their Instagram story over the weekend ……

Tori Spelling & Dean McDermott: Somehow We"ve Been Married 12 Years!

It looks like there’s hope for those fans who hope that Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott are actually fixing their marriage.


Despite their recent troubles — which have included 911 calls and serious concerns — the two are making the effort to reconnect.


And what better time for that than while on a vacation for your 12 year wedding anniversary?



Sharing this photo to Instagram, Tori Spelling announces:


“Paradise is upon us!”:


And yes, this is a vacation that she and Dean are taking without their brood.


“As a mom of 5 I don’t know life without my kiddos.”


However, she keeps things in perspective.


“But, sometimes it’s important to take time and remember the whole reason those 5 little blessings are in our lives…”


Quite simply, it’s love.


“And that is a mad love that started with my soulmate @imdeanmcdermott.”






She then asks fans and followers:


“When is the last time you traveled to a sunny vacation locale without your kiddos?”


If you’re thinking that you’ve never done that — not since having kids, anyway — know that you’re not alone.


“We’ve never!”


Which means that it’s been over a decade for her and Dean.


“Last time was almost 12 years ago when we got married in Fiji.”


Wow!



She confesses that she hesitated at first.


“This #mamabear was anxious leaving the kiddos but enjoying reconnecting with my love.”


She sings the praises of alone time for any healthy couple.


“So important!”


She then finishes her post with a number of hashtags.


#hawaii #soulmates #paradise #nuskinteamelite #bossbabe #workingmom #workingmomlife #bossmom #teamtori #team90210 #momsofinstagram #successtrip #leadership #empowerment”


We’re concerned that she didn’t use enough hashtags.



Tori Spelling also shared this (hilarious!) sweet throwback photo of the two of them in a separate post.


“12 years ago today… a girl and a boy came together all alone on a tropical island to proclaim their love for each other as they were pronounced husband and wife…”


Well … they were already in their thirties at the time, but sure.


“I was finally the princess in my own fairytale. Fiji will always be a magical place for us.”


That’s very sweet.


“Today I celebrate the love and passion I share with @imdeanmcdermott and the 5 blessings that we’ve created together.”


She is referring, of course, to their five wonderful children.






Tori ends this message by referring to Dean as something arguably more special than a husband.


“Some people search their entire lives to find a soulmate. I’m one lucky woman because I have 6!”


She included her children in it, of course.


That is so sweet!


“I love [love] you babe…”


Well, that is a very sweet message. 


Earlier reports said that essentially the only thing keeping Tori and Dean from getting divorced was that the process would be too darn expensive.


We hope that this anniversary trip helps them to reconnect as intended and lets them live out the rest of their lives in happiness.


For their sakes, of course, but especially for the happiness and well-being of their children.

Matt Roloff Somehow Gets Burned for Amy Roloff Boyfriend Photo

Welp, this is a new one.


As has been proven many times over the past several months, Little People, Big World are somewhat tribal when it comes to Matt Roloff and Amy Roloff.


Even though this couple got divorced two years ago, fans of their show can’t seem to accept that each has happily moved on to fresh new relationships.



Just last week, for example, Amy shared a pretty basic photo of herself and boyfriend Chris Marek online…


… only for critics to bash the heck out him for no reason whatsoever.


This is a regular pattern we’ve noticed, almost every time Amy posts a picture of herself and Chris enjoying some evening out together.


A few days ago, however, something different happened; something equally baffling and annoying, but something that made it clear TLC viewers aren’t very big fans of Matt Roloff, either.


First, Amy posted the picture above, writing as a caption:


Another wonderful Soup night w/ these lovely people (Dan was here too) I love that Chris and friends still come over to simply gather, eat and conversations .


Wonderful friends! Menu: Split Pea Soup, Ricotta and roasted tomato bruschetta, pound cake w/ whip cream and cherry topping. I love Soup Night!



Simple enough, right?


Yet the image somehow led to Matt getting burned to a crisp by various social media users.


“You know Amy I never saw you put your head on Matt’s shoulder with love!!! Chris seems to love it,” someone actually wrote as a comment.


Yes: Matt and Amy were married for over 25 years and have four kids and still get along very well… but there was no love there at all on Matt’s side.


This is clearly an accurate and well-deserved remark.




no matt!


Others, meanwhile, apparently believe Matt was only ever about “himself” and are glad Amy has come to this same realization:




never my favorite


Then there was the harsh shade thrown in the direction of Matt’s girlfriend, Caryn Chandler.


First, this critic slams here as “adulterous,” despite no accusations of infidelity ever having been leveled at Matt.


Then, this same person actually takes Caryn to task for “acting like a grandma,” as if spending time with her boyfriend’s grandkids is a bad thing.


Forehead. Slap.




down with caryn


Truth be told, Amy and Matt are both in steady relationships and get along with each other very well.


Take a look at the photo above.


It was snapped of the former couple in January, just a few weeks ago, and it depicts them hanging out, playing with their grandchildren, as amicable and relaxed and content as ex-spouses could ever be.


Why can’t Little People, Big World fans just be happy for them and chill the eff out?!?


We really wish we knew.

Couple Gets Wasted, Somehow Spends Date Night at Target


Tony and Alyssa Serafini are the parents of two little girls.


They are also both teachers.


So this husband and this wife spend a lot of time around kids.


With the exception, that is, of a recent date night in which they hired a babysitter and hit up a restaurant called Gibbet Hill Grill because they had a gift card for it.


The alcohol soon flowed, one thing led to another and the couple ended up at… Target?


Wait, what? Huh? Why?!? Read Tony"s hilarious account of the evening below…




1. But… WHY?


But why

Tony runs the Facebook page “Bottlerocket” and got the attention of his followers with a post that started out like this.



2. Blame the Alcohol!


Blame the alcohol

“They have this drink called 10 Years Rum Punch that comes in its own little bottle,” Tony explained. And his wife downed two of them.



3. Down the Hatch!


Down the hatch

Tony likely had certain ideas of where the night was headed. We doubt one of those ideas was a giant retail store.



4. On Target. Really.


On target really

“My wife got two of them and then wouldn’t stop talking about back to school shopping at Target, but I didn’t want to do that because it’s still July,” Tony wrote on Facebook. (And also because… who yearns to go to Target on date night?!?)



5. Can You Find Me?!?


Can you find me

“We ended up at Target, and walked around shopping and taking pictures, like teenagers,” Tony explains, making it clear via the photo above that at least this wasn’t their a basic, boring shopping trip.



6. This is… Fun?


This is fun

For one half of the couple, at least, it seemed.

Kate Plus 8 Recap: Yes, It"s Actually Still on TV Somehow!

Last night on TLC, Kate Plus 8 returned as the Gosselins celebrated Halloween and strived to throw the best party in the neighborhood.


In other news, Kate Plus 8 is STILL on the air!



So what did we learn on Kate Plus 8 Season 6 Episode 1?


Well, we learned that the family is closer together.


That’s a good thing when you consider how far apart they seemed on Season 5. Working on their relationships is a good thing for any family.


The kids, being a lot older nowadays and aware of such things, have even been quizzing Kate about why she is still single.


No questions about Jon Gosselin’s career as a stripper … on air, at least. (They have to be at least vaguely aware of that, right?)


To reward the kids for being awesome, Kate wanted to make them a Haunted House for Halloween, but as is always the case, nothing ever goes to plan. 



When Kate opened up about her ambitious Halloween plans, the kids seemed scared but mostly happy about the idea.


They wanted the Haunted House to exist, but they were considerably less enthusiastic about helping out to get it ready.


If you watch Kate Plus 8 online, you may recall that the Gosselin matriarch has a barn that is in need of a good clean.


This was her planned location for the Haunted House, so she needed assistance in getting it ready a lot of assistance.


Kate asked the children if they would like to help her, but they all conveniently chose to do their homework for school.


Yes, they are smart children.



Kate was not taking no for an answer, though, and the kids capitulated. When that was all over, she realized she was running out of time. 


Fortunately, she turned to her best friend Jamie, who was ecstatic at the opportunity of helping the Gosselins out with the party planning.


At times, it became too much, but that’s what happens when everything is left until the last minute, especially with lofty goals like this.


On the day of the event, tensions were high.


A bird legit tried to fly into the cake. Kate looked like she was ready to explode, and it did not help matters that the guests arrived early. 


Still, ultimately the event was a success.



One of the more comical moments found the oldest teen finding a rat in the Haunted House, and it was real. Spooky stuff right there!


At the end of the party, everyone relaxed by the bonfire, a good bonding experience for everyone at the end of a stressful day.


What will Kate and the gang find themselves up to next week? Does the TLC series really have enough storylines for a full season?


We have our doubts, but we said that a couple of years ago and here we are, so we’ve learned to never discount Kate. Ever.


What did you think of the premiere?

The Bachelorette Recap: Lee is Still on the Show Somehow

While this season was guaranteed to have its share of ups and downs, not even The Bachelorette spoilers could’ve predicted this tension.


Specifically, racial tensions – ones that Rachel Lindsay, the franchise’s first African-American lead, would love to avoid – have run rampant.



Picking up where last week left off, The Bachelorette Season 13 Episode 5, issues between Lee and Kenny continued to boil over.


The fact that Lee Garrett is racist at worst, or a bona fide pot-stirring reality TV villain at best, is clear to everyone involved at this point.


We’ll get to that in short order, but first, a shout-out to some of the other men on the show actually trying to win Rachel Lindsay’s heart.


You know, the reason they’re supposed to be on the show, rather than just angling for camera time or stoking racial tensions for fun.


What a concept, we know.


Bryan Abasolo (one of the contenders, according to any Bachelorette spoilers you’ll read) continued to make a good impression on her.



It’s not hard to see why.


He’s not going anywhere; Peter Kraus is another who’s in this to win this. For how long remains to be seen, but he is long for this world.


Some of these other guys? Not so much. Rachel still had questions about Jack, for example, so she invited him on a one-on-one date.


The chemistry on this show is palpable between contestants sometimes, but other times, not so much. This was one of the other times.


“You’re going to get sick. I’m contagious,” Lindsay said, shutting down a kiss attempt and later adding, “There’s something missing with Jack.”


“I don’t feel closer to him.”


Have a safe flight, Jack. At the end of the rose ceremony, Eric, Peter, Adam, Will, Matt, Alex, Josiah, Anthony, Kenny, and Lee remained.



Perhaps fittingly, the guys traveled to Oslo, Norway, where Kenny and Lee were pitted against each other on a two-on-one date.


Who would be left out in the cold? Eh? See what we did there?! Because it’s Norway and that Scandinavian country is pretty far north?


Terrible jokes aside, Lee continued his oddly bitter and conniving mission to torpedo Kenny’s chances by s–t talking him to RL.


According to Lee, as recounted to The Bachelorette star, Kenny totally called him a b—h, and attempted to pull him out of a van.


Cameras saw no such incident.


Fortunately (or unfortunately, as this means it’ll drag out), we’re left with the dreaded “To Be Continued” as another confrontation looms.

Aaron Hernandez: Was He Somehow Murdered?

As previously, Aaron Hernandez is dead.


The former New England Patriots tight end was found hanging from a bed sheet very early Wednesday morning, seemingly the victim of a suicide.


At 27 years old, Hernandez was in jail for life, without the possibility of parole, after his 2015 conviction on first-degree murder charges.



A few hours after Hernandez was discovered in his cell and then pronounced dead at a nearby hospital, The Massachusetts Department of Correction released the following statement:


On April 19, 2017 Aaron Hernandez was discovered hanged in his cell by corrections officers at the Souza Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley Massachusetts at approximately 3:05 a.m.


Lifesaving techniques were attempted on Mr. Hernandez and he was transported to UMASS Leominster where he was pronounced dead at 4:07 a.m. by a physician at the hospital.


Mr. Hernandez was in a single cell in a general population housing. Mr. Hernandez hanged himself utilizing a bed sheet that he attached to his cell window.


Mr. Hernandez also attempted to block his door from the inside by jamming the door with various items.


The Massachusetts State Police are on scene and the investigation continues. Mr. Hernandez’s next of kin have been notified.


Just a few days ago, Hernandez was acquitted in a separate double murder case, stemming from an incident in 2012 in which he was the passenger in an alleged drive-by shooting.


Cameras caught the disgraced athlete blowing a kiss to his four-year old daughter in the courtroom at one point.



Based on this statement and the apparent evidence inside Hernandez’s jail cell, this tragic case appears to be open and shut.


He clearly killed himself, right?


Not so fast, argues Hernandez’s attorney, Jose Baez.


Having represented Hernandez in the aforementioned double murder trial, Baez responded to this news today by saying the ex-tight end’s family and legal team were “shocked and surprised at the news of Aaron’s death.”


Baez had previously claimed he could get Hernandez’s original murder conviction overturned, and added that he finds it hard to believe Hernandez would take his own life.


“There were no conversations or correspondence from Aaron to his family or legal team that would have indicated anything like this was possible,” Baez continued in the statement.


“Aaron was looking forward to an opportunity for a second chance to prove his innocence.


“We request that authorities conduct a transparent and thorough investigation.”



As cited in the Department of Corrections statement, this had already been the plan.


But Baez is ready to open his own investigation as well, telling TMZ that Hernandez might have been murdered either “by inmates or the folks who run the prison.”


And he isn’t alone in this belief.


Hernandez’s former agent, Brian Murphy, tweeted the following after learning Hernandez was dead.


“Absolutely no chance he took his own life. Chico was not a saint, but my family and I loved him and he would never take his own life.”




ah tweet


Also via Twitter, ESPN writer Josina Anderson has posted two message that reads:


Another former teammate of Aaron Hernandez I spoke with this am having a hard time believing he took his own life: “I am not buying it.”


That former Pats teammate added: “I’ll never believe (Aaron Hernandez) went out that way. Yes he has emotions, but he’s not wired like that.”


We’re guessing more information comes out about the alleged Aaron Hernandez suicide in the coming days and weeks.



We very much understand how difficult it can be to accept that someone you knew well could take his or her own life.


But the only other possibility here is a rather drawn-out, elaborate conspiracy that involves killing someone already sentenced to prison until the day he dies.


We’ll update this story with more news as it breaks.

It Trailer Released, Clowns Somehow Even More Terrifying Now

Stephen King"s "It" is coming to the big screen on September 8, and judging by the first trailer released today, "It" is gonna be horrifying.


Like, beyond horrifying.



Thanks to Tim Curry, clowns became a thing of nightmares (not that they weren"t already, but still) in the 1990 TV movie of King"s novel.


Amazing as it is that it"s taken this long for a silver screen version, Warner Bros. is certainly making it worth the wait by the looks of this.


"When children begin to disappear in the town of Derry, Maine," the official synopsis says, evoking familiar imagery for any of King"s fans.


"A group of young kids is faced with their biggest fears when they square off against an evil clown named Pennywise."


And, well, you know the rest.


Pennywise"s "history of murder and violence dates back for centuries," the synopsis says, and in the trailer, he lives up to that billing.



The forthcoming film stars Jaeden Lieberher as Bill Denbrough, whose younger brother Georgie is one of the clown"s victims.


Joining Denbrough are friends Ben Hanscom (Jeremy Ray Taylor), Richie Tozier (Finn Wolfhard), and Stan Uris (Wyatt Oleff).


Also along for the ride: Mike Hanlon (Chosen Jacobs), Eddie Kaspbrak (Jack Dylan Grazer) and Beverly Marsh (Sophia Lillis).


Perhaps the most noteworthy? Bill Skarsgard, Alexander Skarsgard"s brother, takes over as Pennywise from the great Curry.


The It teaser below depicts Georgie"s frightening capture, after the impressionable boy loses a toy boat down a storm drain.


Pennywise"s debut here is truly chilling.



In addition to a tease of the killer clown, we also get a glimpse of the so-called Losers Club discussing the strange events of late.


With so many disappearances around Derry, something has to be amiss, and eventually, they begin investigating the clown itself.


The It trailer ends, fittingly, with Bill and Georgie in the sewer, as little brother repeats the novel"s most famous line to his older sibling:


"You"ll float too." 


[Shiver.]


It trailer released clowns somehow even more terrifying now

Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz: Somehow Shocked Over Scheana Marie Divorce

Note to Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz:


You may want to watch your own television show.


We can help. You can use this link to watch Vanderpump Rules online in order to catch up with past episodes of this Bravo hit.


Perhaps then you’ll be able to remove your jaws from the floor when it comes to Scheana Marie Shay and Mike Shay recently filing for divorce.



These Vanderpump Rules stars appeared last night on Watch What Happens Live and were asked by host Andy Cohen about Scheana Marie splitting from her husband of two years.


Considering that Scheana staged an intervention for Mike last season…


… and considering that a Season 4 episode also centered on Mike moving out of the couple’s apartment after just months of marriage…


… and considering that Mike actually went missing for a few days in November, while Scheana wondered about his whereabouts and folks wondered if he had fallen off the wagon…


… well, this divorce was not difficult to see coming.


Unless you are Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz, apparently.


“It was honestly – it came out of nowhere,” Tom told Cohen on Tuesday evening’s broadcast. “We were blindsided.”


“We all thought they’d be together forever,” added Katie, who evidently has never actually spoken to Scheana or Mike.



Katie and Tom, who got married themselves in August, continued to sound more ignorant than the average Vanderpump Rules viewer, with Tom somehow stating on air:


“You never know what’s going on behind closed doors. They seemed happy from outward appearances.”


Ummm… no, they did not.


Countless episodes of your very own reality show – with camera rolling in front of open doors and everything – depicted Scheana and Mike experiencing serious marital problems.


But Maloney reiterated this same stance in a Facebook Live chat Monday.



“I never saw it coming. We never anticipated it. I thought they would be together forever,” she said at the time.


“My heart goes out to them and I can’t even imagine, but I think it’s the best decision for them both and I know that they will still be able to maintain a friendship.”


It doesn’t sound like you know anything about them at all, actually, Katie.


Wrote Scheana and Mike in a joint statement upon announcing their break-up:


While we have made the difficult decision to move forward separately, our story will continue on through the love and mutual respect that we have cultivated throughout our 15-year friendship.


Much of the recent speculation and reporting on our relationship has been misguided, and we have come to an amicable decision on all matters.


We might have failed at our marriage, but we are committed to succeeding as friends and will continue to support each other’s personal happiness and professional success.



Scheana later jumped on Twitter and thanked her fans for their support.


“Thank you all for the love today! It’s never easy to split with someone you still love, but we will always remain friends,” she wrote.


As for what brought the marriage down? And where the relationship will go from here?


A reliable source says more information will leak out as more episodes of Vanderpump Rules air this season.


Tom and Katie may want to tune in.

Man Guzzles Liter of Vodka in 8 Seconds, Somehow Isn"t From Florida

Andi Doherty is a British working-class bloke like any other, but with one important difference…


Doherty has a Stalin-like taste for vodka and a Churchill-esque tolerance for the stuff.


Doherty gained a lot of attention this week for the following video in which he claims to polish off an entire liter of Absolut vodka in just over eight seconds:



Obviously, we’d like to discourage any of our readers from attempting a similar stunt at home.


Come to think of it, we probably should’ve put that warning above the video.


So, um … you just walked into the room and found this article still open on your loved one’s laptop, our condolences. 


No, no – all kidding aside sear-suicidal like what this dude just did is no laughing matter.



So what the hell possessed him to attempt such an idiotic stunt?


Well, he wanted to make his way into the Guinness Book of World Records, of course!


You may be saying to yourself:


“Wow, Guinness will publish your name for doing something that stupid?”


The answer, of course is, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!



It seems Andi should’ve done a bit of research before he embarked on his noble quest, as despite the fact that the publishers of the famed records book are the also the brewers of the same-named delicious beer, they don’t encourage Leaving Las Vegas-style assaults against your own liver.


“I did it to prove that I’m the biggest drinker in the world and I’m fully up for doing it in front of Guinness World Record officials to become the verified champion,”Andi told the the Mirror in an interview that presumably consisted solely of the question, Why?!


“I chucked up the entire bottle the second time I tried it that quick.”


Dorfman – a 30-year-old dad adds that he filmed the clip as part as part of his Iron Liver YouTube series – adds that he’s out to defend his reputation as “the biggest drinker in the world.”



“I can drink the most vodka in the world, no doubt about that, my friends call me a land pirate because of my love for rum,” Dorfman says.


We guess that explains the flag and the fact that he’s the only UK resident to own a leather Oakland Raiders hat.


But it doesn’t explain, well … anything else about his life decisions.


Hey, at least it’s better than that time 50 Cent fed vodka to a cat.


#2016, y’all.

Kim Richards Somehow Avoids Jail...Again

Kim Richards must have some damn good lawyers.



The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star managed to avoid jail time for failing to comply with the terms of her probation stemming from an August 2015 shoplifting arrest, when she stole $ 600 worth of products at a Van Nuys Target.


According to TMZ, Richards was supposed to complete 30 hours of community service and attends 52 AA meetings, neither of which she did.


Fortunately, Richards’ lawyers showed the judge proof that she had “belatedly” met her 30 hours, and she is nearly caught up on AA meetings, so the judge gave her a pass.


Richards is still on probation, and is required to have everything completed by November, when her next hearing takes place.



“At the moment, she seems to be doing OK. She goes to AA [meetings],” a source told E! News.


“She’s trying to get some projects off the ground. There are three or four in the works.”


Richards will soon be a first-time grandmother.  Her daughter, Brooke Wiederhorn is expecting a boy with husband, Thayer.


Wiederhorn is Richards’ child with Monty Brinson, who passed away last January from lung cancer.


“Kim is very much looking forward to becoming a grandmother- it’s a very exciting time. Brooke is about 3 months along,” a source told Entertainment Tonight.


“Monty (her father) was able to hear the news before his passing. It’s definitely bittersweet, but the family is doing really well.”


Richards, along with friends and family, celebrated the impending addition with a baby shower on August 4th.



“My Radiant Girl,” Richards wrote on an Instagram post.


“Brookie , what an honor & blessing it is being your mommy.


“You bring me so much joy everyday! I can’t wait for understand this kind love … Won’t be long now ..I love you more than words can say!!”

Victoria Beckham Somehow Draws Internet Ire for Kissing Her Daughter

On July 10, Harper Beckham turned five years old.


In honor of her daughter, Victoria Beckham shared the following photo on Instagram, including with the image a caption that reads:


“Happy Birthday baby girl… We all love you so much… kisses from mummy.”



Pretty basic, right?


Pretty nice and normal and loving and there’s nothing else to say about this picture, right?


We wish.


We really wish that were it.


In response to the picture, however, online trolls expressed disgust and outrage over the former Spice Girl kissing her offspring on the lips.


“Horrible pic. David Beckhams birthday pic is much nicer and a lot less controversial than this stupid bitches,” someone actually wrote.


We wish we could say this person was alone in his or her response.


But take a look below. This user, sadly, was not…




beckham hate



Seriously, people really did write those things about a mother giving her daughter a kiss.


Even those who defended Beckham did so in a back-handed, overly analytical way.


They saw this picture and somehow found it necessary to turn it into a commentary on love and parenthood and society.


See what we mean here:




weird defense



Parental shaming has become the new, unfortunate norm on the Internet.


Last week, critics slammed Kristin Cavallari for supposedly not feeding her children, based on a solitary photo of them at the beach.


People also took issue with Bristol Palin’s daughter posing near some fake guns.


And this really has to stop.


All of these parents are doing the very best they can. They clearly love their children. And you have no idea what’s really going on at home between these family members.


It’s cruel to judge. It’s misguided. And it’s just mean.


It’s a cliche, but it’s also true: imagine if strangers on the World Wide Web slammed your parenting skills (or anything about you) based on a single image.


Imagine how you would feel.


Imagine that and then think twice before doing it to someone else.
