Jenelle Evans: Teen Mom 2 Sucks Without My Big Dumb Husband!


So just in case you missed this, David Eason has been fired from Teen Mom 2.


It happened several months ago after he went on an awful, homophobic Twitter rant, and MTV has refused to budge on it, no matter how much whining Jenelle Evans has done.


And it"s been a whole, whole lot of whining.


It actually took a long time for Jenelle to sign on for the new season of the show, she was complaining so much about so many things.


But at long last, she agreed to keep filming, so that"s what she"s doing now.


However, that doesn"t mean she has to like it …




1. Gross


Jenelle dave eason

OK, so just in case you needed a refresher, if you haven’t seen this dynamic duo in a hot minute, this is Jenelle with her husband, David Eason.



2. Basically


David eason eff you

David is the worst.



3. Impressive

David is so awful that he managed to get fired from Teen Mom, a series that has featured people high on heroin, physically abusing their significant others, and neglecting their children.



4. Something to Consider

Think about it: how bad do you have to be to get fired from a network who has employed the likes of Jenelle, Amber Portwood, and Ryan Edwards?



5. For Real Though


Farrah abraham is rendered speechless

Like, Farrah Abraham starred in a porno, got a DUI, treated the crew like garbage, fought with producers, fought with her fellow cast members, and they still tried to make things work with her before she left the show.



6. So …

But when David when on his disgusting little homophobic rant, MTV was done.

Farrah Abraham on Teen Mom: HA! It"s a Failure Without Me!


Teen Mom OG returned to the air on October 1, with one very obvious change:


Farrah Abraham is no longer a cast member.


She was fired in February and replaced by two additions: Bristol Palin and Cheyenne Floyd.


How did the Season 8 premiere fare without this controversial reality star on board?


Below, we relay the opening ratings and then we share Abraham"s calm, cool and collected reaction to how the program is doing thus far without her polarizing presence…




1. The New Cast


Teen mom og season 8 cast

Here they are: Amber, Maci, Catelynn, Cheyenne and Bristol. MTV is banking on this quintet to draw in the ratings for Season 8.



2. Was the Premiere a Hit?


Newbies

Based on buzz, maybe. The Internet wrote a lot about Bristol and her marital problems. Based on ratings, however? Well…



3. Under a Million Viewers Tuned In


Newbies

According to Ratings by the Numbers, the Season 8 premiere drew in 957,000 viewers for its original airing at 9/8c on Monday, October 1.



4. Can We Compare This to The Season 7 Premiere?


Bristol and dakota

Of course. On November 27, 2017 — a premiere that featured Abraham in all her Farrah glory – 1.319 million viewers were viewing MTV to see what these women were up to.



5. As for the Season 7 Finale?


Season 7

That episode garnered 1.098 million viewers, meaning there was a pretty significant drop-off from those who were curious to see what Farrah was doing to those who tuned in for the debut of Bristol and Chyenne.



6. Was This Really a Reflection of Farrah Getting Fired?


Tyler in tears

We mean… perhaps. There’s no real way of knowing. But ratings across the board have been dropping on television as streaming services take off, viewers have more options and the use of DVR explodes.

Bristol Palin: It Was SO Awkward to Meet the Teen Moms!

Bristol Palin was a literal teen mom about 10 years ago.


But the daughter of ex-Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is now a Teen Mom is the more figurative and professional sense, making a living as one of two new cast members on Teen Mom OG.


It’s pretty darn weird when you think about it.



Or not just when you think about it.


When you actually experience it and work alongside Palin, according to Tyler Baltierra.


For Bristol, meanwhile, it was pretty darn weird to walk right onto a show that had been airing for seven seasons already — and on which everyone was pretty close and familiar.


“I was like, this is their job, they’ve been doing this for so long,” Palin said on Monday’s Teen Mom OG premiere aftershow.. “I hope they like me.”


She may have also had this fear because, let’s face it, plenty of people out there do not like Bristol or her famous mother.



Bristol and Chyenne Floyd were both added to Teen Mom OG in the wake of Farrah Abraham being let go by MTV.


After plenty of back and forth with the controversial star, executives decided in February that it could no longer be associated with someone who did amateur pornography, basically.


“We didn’t want to step on toes, I think,” Floyd said of how she and Palin felt upon meeting the other OGs and starting to film by their side.


Catelynn Lowell, who also appeared on the after-show, thought back to the first time she met the new cast members, saying on air:


“We were doing a promo shoot. I think the production and everything made it was more awkward.”



Bristol agreed, chiming in as follows:


“So awkward!”


And Floyd also agreed!


“We hugged, and it was probably the most awkward hug ever. It was so awkward,” she said of meeting Palin.


Also awkward for Floyd? Some of the backlash she has received for not actually being a teen mom.


Not now. Not ever.



(Floyd shares one-year-old daughter Ryder with Cory Wharton; they welcomed their daughter whe Chyenne was 23 years old.)


But this is what Chyenne said on the topic last month:


“I think that a lot of people are stuck on the word and at the end of the day I’m still young mom. I still have the same struggles and I’m still learning just like everyone else.


I don’t think 23 is the ideal age to have a baby. She was unplanned, so in other ways, other than me not being a teen, I have different things that you can relate.


“So instead of me screaming all day long that I’m not a teen mom, I’d rather just talk about things that I am.”

Bristol Palin: Teen Mom is ALREADY Destroying My Family!

Teen Mom OG has added Bristol Palin, and Bristol’s family dysfunctions are obvious.


But apparently what viewers are seeing on camera is only the tip of the Alaskan iceberg.


A new report says that Bristol’s family is clashing — and Bristol’s new TV role is at the center of their feud.



RadarOnline‘s inside source has revealed that Bristol Palin’s family is being torn apart by her new role on Teen Mom OG.


Some within her divided family think that it’s a “great opportunity.”


After all, this way, Bristol gets exposure and a hefty source of income — we know how sweet that Teen Mom money can be.


Not everyone is onboard with Bristol’s newly revived reality TV career, however.


And apparently the biggest critic of her casting is her new brother-in-law, Ricky Bailey.



Ricky married Bristol’s sister, Willow, just days ago in what was reportedly a sweet ceremony in Alaska.


Bristol ditched the ceremony.


Apparently her issue was over her brother, Track, being invited.


Track has a history of arrests for domestic violence


Not-so-fun fact: he ended up missing Willow’s wedding himself because he was arrested for domestic violence yet again.


But Bristol skipping the wedding is only one factor in her current family troubles.



“Ricky is so against having cameras around,” the insider reveals.


MTV’s cameras followed Bristol for Willow’s bachelorette weekend in Arizona, and it wasn’t exactly Willow’s dream come true.


“Willow didn’t approve of the cameras filming for her bachelorette weekend,” the source says.


“But,” the insider continues, she “ended up giving in to Bristol.”


“It was more of a favor,” the source characterizes.



That favor ended up costing Willow.


“All of the conversations during Willow’s bachelorette weekend ended up being all about Bristol,” the insider reports.


That is very natural when cameras are present.


It also just … sucks for Willow.


“It was so sad for Willow,” the source laments.



But there’s more to the Palin family’s concerns than intrusive cameras.


Apparently Track isn’t the only family member who loses it sometimes.


“Bristol’s siblings believe she is totally crazy and really volatile,” the insider says.


“Her family knows Bristol is trying to keep it together for the Teen Mom cameras,” the source acknowledges.


However, they allegedly fear that it is “only a matter of time” before Bristol totally loses her composure while the cameras are rolling.



In the mean time, Bristol has been posting about a fresh start now that it is finally October.


Bristol took to Instagram to write that it is a “new month.”


She said that this means that she has a “new slate.”


(She probably means fresh slate or clean slate, but let’s not get nitpicky)


Bristol may not see eye to eye with her family on everything. That’s normal.


But we’ve all seen relationships and families fall apart at the seams while they appear on reality television. Will the Palins be next?

Teen Mom OG Recap: Welcome to the Dysfunctional Family!


They are officially on board.


Teen Mom OG kicked off Season 8 on Monday, October 1 with an intense 90-minute episode that introduced a pair of new faces to the franchse:


  1. Bristol Palin, the daughter of former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

  2. Cheyenne Floyd, a former cast member on MTV"s The Challenge who has a daughter with another Season 8 addition, Cory Wharton.

What were this pair up to on the opening installment?


We learned just how complicated of a relationship Floyd and Wharton find themselves in, while we also got a pretty good idea of why Bristol and Dakota Meyer recent filed for divorce.


Scroll down for a recap of all the events from an interesting and emotional Season 8 premiere…




1. Her Life Isn’t Perfect


Bristol arrives

This was a message Bristol said she wanted to send, although it’s not clear why anyone would think that a 27-year woman with three kids by two men – with a famously polarizing mother – would be living a perfect life. Regardless, the premiere gave us a look look at the difficulties in her marriage.



2. Yup, It’s Sarah Palin


Yup its sarah palin

We’re just saying. The woman who came close to being the second most powerful person on Earth made a cameo early in the premiere.



3. Worlds Apart


Bristol and dakota

While Bristol and Meyer live together in Austin, Bristol was off in Arizona with her mom celebrating her sister Piper’s bachelorette party to opem the premiere, while Dakota took the kids to see his parents in Kentucky. Palin told the camera that her husband’s PTSD has been “hard on our marriage.”



4. PTSD?


Ptsd

Yes. Meyer received the Medal of Honor after 2009’s Battle of Ganjgal, where he witnessed the deaths of his entire team. He’s been battling those demons and scars ever since.



5. What are Things Like for This Veteran?


Bristol palin with dakota meyer

Speaking with his dad and the show’s producers, Meyer talked about joining the Marines. “When I joined, it was 110% that you will be going to war soon,” he said on air. “Joining, I could have never knew what I was getting into. You can say, ‘Yeah, I’m ready to get shot at,’ but you’re talking at a 17 year old kid.”



6. More from Dakota:


More from dakota

“We got in a big gunfight and everybody with me is dead,” he continued. “When I first came home, train wreck is not even, that’s an understatement. Anxiety got me real bad.” Meyer added that his children are the “reason I get up every day,” saying they “add to the quality of life, they’re everything.”

Nathan Griffith Accuses Jenelle Evans of Child Abuse, Reveals Her Teen Mom 2 Salary in Shocking Rant!


It"s been quite a month for Jenelle Evans.


Beginning with her refusal to evacuate ahead of Hurricane Florence, it"s been one controversy after another for Evans and her husband, David Eason.


In the days since the storm subsided, Jenelle has been accused of stealing a dog and pilfering charitable donations that were meant for her neighbors in need.


And believe it or not, those allegations pale in comparison to the charges that Nathan Griffith has now leveled against his ex.




1. Hurricane Queen


Jenelle eason bikini photo

Jenelle seems to be living the high life in the wake of Hurricane Florence. But all the while, she’s been sending very mixed messages to her fans.



2. What Hurricane?


Jenelle evans dude shirt

At first, Jenelle was criticized for downplaying the impact of the storm. She refused to evacuate despite warnings from local governments, and she used the #WhatHurricane hashtag when boasting about how much fun her kids were having.



3. Changing Her Tune


Jenelle evans gaze

Shortly thereafter, however, Jenelle complained that she had run out of food and gas and was quickly growing desperate.



4. A Gift From the Food Gods


Groceries for jenelle

When Evans posted this pic of “free” food that her family had received from a charitable organization, fans were quick to point out that the packages were distributed based on income, which should have disqualified self-proclaimed millionaire Jenelle.



5. Nathan on the Case


Nathan griffith profile pic

For months now, Jenelle has been locked in a bitter custody battle with Nathan Griffith, and it seems she may have just given her ex the ammo he needs in order to claim victory.



6. Nate Goes Off

After learning of Jenelle’s suspicious behavior in the wake of Florence, Nathan decided to share some information about the Teen Mom 2 star’s very sketchy existence.

Cheyenne Floyd: Teen Mom Fans Will Love Me Even Though I"m a Fraud!

Cheyenne Floyd is just weeks away from turning 26, which puts her on par with a number of Teen Mom OG stars.


Unlike her new co-stars, however, Cheyenne did not actually become a mother as a teenager. She became a mother when she was … 23.


Now, she is addressing the backlash about that, and explaining why fans will agree that Cheyenne belongs on the show.



Speaking to Us Weekly, Cheyenne Floyd says that part of the reason that people are bristling at her casting is simple semantics.


“I think that a lot of people are stuck on the word,” Cheyenne laments.


That word, of course, being teen. She’s a grown woman who was never a teenage parent who is now getting paid a lot of money to appear on Teen Mom OG.


Cheyenne admits that, but says: “and at the end of the day I’m still young mom.”


“I still have the same struggles,” Cheyenne explains. “And I’m still learning just like everyone else.”



“I don’t think 23 is the ideal age to have a baby,” Cheyenne points out.


It very rarely is. Your body might be at its healthiest, but even if you’re mega-rich, you’re still young and living your life. Also, your brain isn’t quite done maturing.


“She was unplanned,” Cheyenne says of her young daughter. “So in other ways, other than me not being a teen, I have different things that you can relate.”


Most viewers of Teen Mom OG are not, themselves, teenage mothers and never were.


“So instead of me screaming all day long that I’m not a teen mom,” Cheyenne concludes. “I’d rather just talk about things that I am.”



Cheyenne shares that fans and viewers can expect to learn a lot about her and her baby daddy, Cory Wharton.


“Prior to doing Teen Mom, we kept everything to ourselves as far as what happened,” Cheyenne says. “So it’s going to be really interesting to see what the viewers think after they find out.”


That … will depend upon what viewers find out, we suppose.


“We’re good,” Cheyenne says of their relationship as co-parents. “We’re best friends.”


“We work together with everything and put everything into Ryder,” she adds. “So we have a good relationship.”



“They have a different kind review about Cory,” she says of doubtful fans.


“And,” Cheyenne continues. “They haven’t seen me on TV since I did The Challenge and I literally had the baby right after.”


Cheyenne is definitely not overexposed, that’s true.


“So it will be interesting to see what they think about is his parents,” she says.


“And,” Cheyenne concludes. “We’re excited to show our healthy coparenting relationship.”



Cheyenne is controversial for more than just that. See, people accused her of racism due to some old tweets that resurfaced when her casting news broke.


Tweets attributed to Cheyenne expressed a desire to kill white people and particularly to kill white babies, and also said something about being a nazi.


While anti-white sentiments aren’t necessarily racism (in that they’re not systemic and function as empty words, which is not true for genuine racism), those tweets were disturbing.


Cheyenne promises that she’s not racist and says that she shared the Twitter account with others. More importantly, the heinous tweets were made years ago.


Will she be able to overcome this baggage and endear herself to fans? We’ll find out in October.

Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant Promo Teases New Episodes, New Struggles

Back in June, MTV gave the green light for more episodes of Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant.


Now, the reality series is just weeks away from returning for Season 1b — and we already have a promo video.


Pregnancy was only the prologue for these teens. Their struggles have only bgun.


Teen mom young and pregnant season 1b promo pic 02


"Last season, five moms-to-be literally mommed up," the narrator says, making a slightly awkward play on words.


Like we mentioned, the new episodes are just weeks away.


The voiceover continues: "Now, on Monday, October 15, Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant is back."


"The babies have arrived," the voice declares.


Then we get a tease of the challenges to come.


Teen mom young and pregnant cast


"But," the voiceover asks. "How did these moms handle what comes next?"


Obviously, some of these young mothers will handle things better than others. 


That"s how life works — and that"s what draws viewers to the show.


The voiceover repeats: "Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant returns with all new episodes on Monday, October 15 on MTV."


They really don"t want people to miss the premiere date, folks.


Teen mom young and pregnant season 1b promo pic 01


The returning stars are Lexi Tatman, Ashley Jones, Jade Cline, Kayla Sessler, and Brianna Jaramillo.


Obviously, since they"re moms now, we"ll also see their babies again: Tobias, Holly, Kloie, Izaiah, and Braeson.


Viewers expect to see a number of things this season, as Starcasm predicts.


For one thing, Kayla finally breaking up with Stephan.


Will Jade and Sean confirm that they"re back together, as rumor suggests, or will viewers instead see confirmation that they"re over?


Then there"s Lexi and Kyler trying their best to make this work and of course Brianna gettled settled in Oregon.


Ashley jones photo


And then there"s Ashley, easily one of the most memorable and controversial figures we"ve seen on Teen Mom.


Remember that video of her slapping herself beofre accusing Bar of being violent towards her?


Her encounters with Bar"s mother, Shen, eventually drove Shen to quit the series … again.


Ashley joined the ever-growing ranks of reality stars who have feuded with Briana DeJesus even though they"re not even on the same show (and yes, it was over Javi Marroquin).


She also declared on Twitter that people should do their own research into whether the Earth is flat — because she believes that the government and textbooks have warped people"s minds.


Ashley tried to roast people, saying that they thought she was a "dumb b–ch" for her statement. But … nobody"s disputing her self-characterization, there.


Ashley jones pic


Speaking of Ashley, Bar"s life has only been somewhat less dramatic.


He got arrested again. Then there"s the appeal for his brother Troy"s murder conviction. Bar"s foster sister was shot.


On a lighter (and, joking aside, considerably less upsetting) note, Bar released his new rap song. We do not know if, uh, that will be featured on Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant.


But we"ll all find out together in less than three weeks.

Teen Mom OGs vs. The Newbies: Are They Getting Along?


We just heard what Farrah Abraham thinks of her replacements.


In an extended interview, the former Teen Mom OG star has some harsh words for Bristol Palin and Cheyenne Floyd.


But Abraham hasn"t actually shot any scenes with these Season 8 additions. We don"t think she"s even met them.


Maci Bookout, Catelynn Lowell and Amber Portwood, on the other hand, have already starting filming upcoming episodes of the MTV hit with Palin and Floyd, meaning they can provide some actual insight into the fresh faces.


What has filming been like so far?


How do the three OGs feel about the two newbies?


Maci, Catelynn and Amber spoke to Us Weekly about Palin and Floyd, giving fans an update on how everything is going on the series, which returns to MTV on Monday, October 1.


Check out their quotes below.




1. The OGs


The ogs

Here they are. The core original four: Maci, Farrah, Catelynn and Amber. Three of the four remain, still anchoring this popular series.



2. Farewell, Farrah!

Abraham was dismissed by MTV in February of 2018 due to her affiliation with amateur pornography. She sued the network for wrongful termination and eventually settled for an undisclosed amount.



3. But Maci Remains!

Originally cast on 16 and Pregnant, Maci has three children and has been married to husband Taylor since 2016.



4. And Amber Remains!

She was also a cast member on 16 and Pregnant back in the day and has two children. The new season will chronicle the birth of son James with boyfriend Andrew Glennon.



5. And Catelynn Remains!


Tyler and catelynn baltierra

Catelynn just announced she is pregnant with her third child! The first, she gave up for adoption. The second, she loves a whole lot. All are with husband Tyler, who has supported his wife through her battles with depression and anxiety.



6. Enter Bristol Palin!

Farrah Abraham Trashes New Teen Moms: What Pathetic, Dumb Losers!


Farrah Abraham is out.


Cheyenne Floyd is in.


And a new rivalry has apparently been born.


With Abraham having been fired by MTV several months ago due to her involvement in the amateur porn business, the network went out and hired two replacements:


Floyd and Bristol Palin.


Farrah has hurled a bit of shade at these newbies on occasion over the past few weeks, but she opened up in depth for the first time while speaking to Us Weekly on Friday, September 21.


What did she have to say? Scroll down to find out!




1. Let’s Just Get Right To It!


Farrah abraham is rendered speechless

Tell us how you feel, Farrah. “There’s no intelligence there and I actually feel like the Teen Mom fans deserve to have better people fill my position and they deserve to have better quality,” she told the above-mentioned tabloid in this extended interview, going right after Bristol, but especially Cheyenne, for simply not being very smart.



2. How Do We Know She’s Taking Aim Specifically at Floyd?


Farrah abraham hears but does not listen

Because she continued as follows: “They’re from other MTV shows, they’re like Teen Mom groupies. They’re Teen Mom, like, fans, and that’s fine if you are, but don’t go on my show that you watched, talk s—t about me, act like me, it’s like white Girl Interrupted. It’s not cool, it’s not OK.”



3. Where Have We Seen Floyd Before?


Cheyenne floyd and ryder together

She appeared on MTV’s Are You the One? and The Challenge: Rivals III, which is actually where she met baby daddy Cory Wharton, who will also been on Teen Mom OG Season 8.



4. So, She Had Nothing at All to Say About Bristol?


Farrah abraham gives an interview

HA! Does that sound like Abraham at all? She had plenty to say about this shocking new Teen Mom cast member.



5. Here She Goes…


Farrah without makeup

“Last I heard they said they couldn’t been paid enough to be like me, but yet, they are paid, they’re filling my spot,” Farrah told Us Weekly.



6. What? Was That English?


Bristol and 3 kids

Sort of — but it was a to reference to comments Palin recently made about NOT acting like the ex-Teen Mom OG star during an appearance on Jenny McCarthy’s SiriusXM radio show.
