Khloe Kardashian: Book Promotion BACK ON!

It was only supposed to be about a book.



Unfortunately, Khloe Kardashian is a trending topic right now, mainly because her estranged husband, Lamar Odom was found unconscious at a Nevada brothel in mid-October.  


Since then, Kardashian has rarely left Odom’s bedside, even though she had committed to a press tour for her new book, Strong Looks Better Naked.


Many are accusing Kardashian of using Lamar’s condition to self-promote, which makes the reality star irate.  


So irate that she’s taken to Twitter several times in order to explain that one has nothing to do with the other.


“I keep getting asked why I cancelled my NYC signings. I will reschedule them but4 the time being I have to stay in LA for personal reasons,” Kardashian tweeted today.


Kardashian was excited to tell fans that she’d be signing copies of her book at Barnes & Noble in Los Angeles this coming Monday (November 9th) at 7pm.


“LA!!!!! The Grove!!!!! My first signing for my book.I’m staying and signing EVERY single book!! Monday its a date,” Kardashian tweeted earlier today.  “More cities will be added for sure my loves! I just have to feel comfortable to leave for a few days.  thank you for understanding.”


Kardashian’s other project is a talk show on FYI, Kocktails with Khloe, which was originally slated for a December premiere.  


The network announced January 20th, 2016 as a new premiere date for the show, which will feature an “intimate home” setting in which Kardashian and her guests will chat while playing games, cooking and/or enjoying a cocktail.


Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars: Here Comes Trouble!

Court will soon be in session on WE tv.


The obscure cable network, which has risen to some sort of national prominence by giving Kendra Wilkinson and other Z-Listers a platform, has released a new trailer for the new season of Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars.


It teases the presence of Judge Toler from Divorce Court, as she"ll apparently be playing a key role in helping various couples save their marriages or their relationships.


Among the couples to be featured this winter will be: Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici from The Bachelor… Benzino and Althea Heart from Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta… Sundy Carter & Cedric from Basketball Wives: Los Angeles and Sarah Oliver and Jimmy “Inkman” Coney from Bad Girls Club.


Oh, and also Mama June and Sugar Bear from Here Comes Honey Boo!


The latter tandem is the focus of the following preview, which makes it appear as if the other couples are really shocked and excited to see them enter the home for some reason


June, of course, is the mother to young reality star Honey Boo Boo, while Sugar Bear is her stepfather.


They seemingly split up at the very beginning of the year (because Sugar Bear was too horny), but they clearly can"t stay away from each other.


Will an appearance on this reality TV show help save their romance?


Or will June Shannon just give up on men and focus on some girl-on-girl action instead? Gross. We know. Sorry.


Marriage Boot Camp Reality Stars returns with new episodes on December 4 and here is a look ahead at all the tears, fights and drama you can expect to take place then:

Here is Everything You Need to Know About Chris Stapleton


By taking home a trio of Country Music Awards in 2015, Chris Stapleton announced his arrival at the next country music star.


Many watching this ceremony at home or reading about it the next day were left with one lingering question, however:


WHO IS CHRIS STAPLETON? We"re so glad you asked…




1. Quite the Debut


Quite the debut

Singleton released his debut solo LP, “Traveller,” in May. It won him Album of the Year at the CMAs.



2. An Industry Veteran


An industry veteran

Can we really call him a “newcomer?” The Kentucky native moved to Tennessee in 2001. Since that time, he has worked as a songwriter for 15 years, teaming with such major artists as Adele. However, he didn’t get his big break until he signed with Warner Chappell Music as a solo artist in January 2014.



3. You’ve Known him For Years… Without Really Knowing Him


Youve known him for years without really knowing him

Stapleton both wrote and did backup vocals for Adele’s “If It Hadn’t Been for Love,” Luke Bryan’s “Drink a Beer,” Kenny Chesney’s “Never Wanted Nothing More,” Blake Shelton’s “100 Miles,” and “Too Fast” for Jason Aldean. That’s quite the resume!



4. Banding Together


Banding together

Before going off on his own, Chris was the lead singer for the band SteelDrivers from 2008 to 2010. He also founded the Southern rock band The Jompson Brothers and opened for the Zac Brown Band in 2010 as part of that group.



5. What About Movies and Television?


What about movies and television

Yup, he’s dipped his talented toes into these waters, too. Stapleton has contributed to the soundtracks of 2010’s Country Strong and 2010’s Valentine’s Day. He also has writing credits on installments of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Apprentice, Late Night with Seth Meyers and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.



6. He’s Taken


Hes taken

Stapleton has a son and daughter with his wife, singer-songwriter Morgane. He’s quite smitten with her, telling the CMA audience after winning Male Vocalist of the Year: “I gotta thank my wife again. She always pushes me to be the best I can be and do anything.”

The Real Housewives: Coming to a City Near You?!?

Look out below, citizens of America!


A few tables may soon be flipped over right around the corner from where you currently reside.



We’re mostly kidding, but Andy Cohen was very serious on Wednesday, sitting down with Amy Phillips on her Sirius XM radio program, “Reality Checked,” and teasing that a fresh batch of Real Housewives are on their way to a new locale.


When might this show air on Bravo? Cohen would not say.


When might we learn the city in which it will be based? “Sooner than you think,” he replied.


The Real Housewives franchise remains on the air in New Jersey… Orange County… Beverly Hills… Atlanta… and New York.


Efforts to expand it into D.C. and Miami failed after one poorly-rated season apiece.



There’s also a Real Housewives Melbourne in Australia, but Cohen (an executive producer for the Bravo franchise) has nothing to do with it and told Phillips he’s “never even seen it.”


Over the years, Housewives such as NeNe Leakes and Bethenny Frankel have used these shows to catapult themselves into other mainstream industries and businesses.


Conversely, Teresa Giudice has used the series to lie to the federal government and go to jail.


Where will the Housewives end up next? Our money is on Austin, Texas. Or at least a city down south somewhere. 


While we ponder the destination of these future Housewives, let’s also take a look back at past cast members who have left this franchise.


Most haven’t exactly gone on to bigger or better things…
