DMX: Hospitalized, Near Death Following Overdose?

Rapper DMX has reportedly been hospitalized after being found unconscious at a Ramada Inn in Yonkers, NY.

According to TMZ, the 45-year-old appears to have suffered an overdose after at around 6 pm on Monday evening.

Cops were called to the scene and found X – whose real name is Earl Simmons – unconscious and without a pulse.

Sources say the officers were able to revive Simmons with a does of Narcan, a drug that’s administered to bring overdose victims back from the brink of death.

Simmons was brought to a nearby hospital, where he’s currently under surveillance.

One witness says the hip hop icon “ingested a white powder” moments before he collapsed.

Sadly, Simmons has made more headlines for his troubled personal life than for his music in recent years.

He was sentenced to six months in prison last year following a bizarre incident in which he robbed a customer at a gas station.

Prior to that, DMX was arrested once for DUI and twice for unrelated traffic offenses, all within less than 18 months.

Sources close to Simmons say he is expected to make a full recovery and has regained consciousness since being hospitalized last night.

We’ll have updates on this story as more information becomes available.

Teresa Giudice: My Husband Never Cheated on Me!

Teresa Giudice may be free from prison, but that doesn’t mean the horrific Real Housewife is free from a rumor that has dogged her relationship for months:

Did husband Joe Giudice put his penis inside another woman while Teresa was incarcerated?

In an exclusive interview with People Magazine, Teresa strongly denies all infidelity chatter, standing strongly by her man.

“No women has ever come up to me and said that my husband was having an affair with them,” Teresa tells the publication, adding:

“It’s sad that if there are any women around him, people take pictures of him and sell the photos to a magazine. I feel bad for him.”

Hmmm… who wants to tell Giudice that just because no mistress has actually outed herself to her personally does not exactly mean her husband has been loyal?

Undaunted, however, Giudice insists that the media needs to get a life.

“Every photo that I see of him with other women I know who the women are,” she says.

“He could be out with friends that are single and, you know if they’re talking to girls, that doesn’t mean that Joe is doing anything just because a girl is sitting at the same table as them.

“So I feel bad for him in a way. Because the poor guy, you know, he’s not doing that.”

Joe says he’s now stuck turning down any woman that comes up to him for a photo (we’re sure this happens A TON), while confirming his love and appreciation for his wife.

“Our marriage has always been strong,” he tells People. “We never had a problem with our marriage. But I definitely learned to appreciate her more not having her around for a year.”

Heck, he’s probably having sex with Teresa right at this very moment.

Joe Giudice, meanwhile, begins his lengthy prison sentence in March. And Teresa says she’ll be faithful.

“We’ve been married 16 years. Listen, we’re both devoted to each other, and I don’t have a collar around his neck,” she says. “If we didn’t want to be around each other we would both go our separate ways.”

Danica Dillon: Paid By TLC to Drop Charges Against Josh Duggar?

Last week, after months of legal wrangling and tabloid drama, Danica Dillon unexpectedly dropped her lawsuit against disgraced former reality star Josh Duggar.

Dillon claimed that Duggar assaulted her during a paid sexual encounter, and she seemed intent on not only making him pay, but also proving to the world that she was telling the truth.

Now, fans are speculating as to what may have prompted Dillon’s sudden change of heart.

Naturally, there have been rumors that Dillon was paid to drop her case, particularly after she tweeted that she stands by her claims and hinted that she had no choice but to walk away for the sake of her family.

We know that Josh hasn’t worked in almost a year, and his parents reportedly refused to help him buy his way our of his latest scandal, so it’s unlikely that he came up with the cash to pay Dillon off himself.

At one point, it was rumored that Josh was selling his family’s house in order to cover his legal fees and settle out of court with Dillon, but as the former adult film star was seeking more than $ 500,000 in damages, it’s likely he still would’ve come up short.

After all, Dillon demonstrated that she was confident she would win if the case went to trial, and she claimed that she was primarily interested in forcing Josh to answer for his crimes under oath, so getting her to drop the case probably would’ve meant ponying up more than a half a million.

Josh probably didn’t have the cash, and we know his parents were unwilling to help, so who could’ve – and would’ve – paid Danica off?

Well, as much money as the Duggars made from their time on television, the folks at TLC made even more, and the timing of Danica’s lawsuit couldn’t have been worse for the network.

It’s been reported that the Duggars are currently filming the first episode of their new series, and it’ll be tough for the show to find an audience if the family’s scandalous year is still fresh in the mind of potential viewers.

So it’s not hard to see why many fans believe TLC cut Ms. Dillon a massive check in order to drop her civil suit against Josh.

Thus far there’s no proof (and Dillon almost certainly would’ve been forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement), but it’s worth noting that network execs have yet to come forward and deny the rumor.

Blac Chyna Makes Rob Kardashian Happy and "Optimistic About The Future"

Some might call it the greatest love story of our time.

JK, but if these two are happy, then Mazel.

Even though Blac Chyna is in Turks and Caicos at the moment, her motivation to stay fit and eat healthy has rubbed off on Rob Kardashian, whose recent snapchats feature sweaty workouts.

“Rob has fallen hard for Blac Chyna,” a source told People Magazine.

“She makes him super happy and this is the first time that he’s felt so optimistic about life in years.”

It was revealed that the two were dating last month, when Chyna Instagram’d a photo of herself wrapped in Kardashian’s arms.  Though his face was never shown, fans looked closely at the tattooed arm and realized who it belonged to.

Since then, Chyna has snapchatted videos of her healthy meals and workouts.  She even introduced Kardashian to her personal trainer.

“She helps keep Rob in check with his health and makes sure he is abiding by his diet and exercising,” the source added.

“He feels there’s strong potential for this relationship to go a long way but for now they are very content and complement each other really well.”

Being with Chyna has brought Kardashian out of his shell.  For the first time in a few years, the 28-year-old has been “out and about a ton.”

Whatever their relationship is like, it’s made Kardashian happy and has him “excited about the future.”
