Vanessa Hudgens Pays Tribute to Late Father

Vanessa Hudgens said her final farewell to her father on Tuesday.


Earlier this month, the actress announced to fans that her dad, Greg, had lost his battle to cancer and passed away at the age of 65.



The death actually took place on the same day Hudgens was booked to perform on Fox as part of Grease! Live, Tweeting at the time that she would “do the show in his honor.”


The High School Musical alum then went ahead and made her father very proud, earning rave reviews for her portrayal of Rizzo.



Now, the actress has shared a few touching moments from her father’s memorial service on Snapchat.


In the first video, she used one of the app’s latest filters, one that gives the appearance of foggy glass.


When she blew a kiss, the words “I love you” appeared… and Hudgens then added “Dad” to the end of the sentence, as you can see above.


Secondly, also featured above, Vanessa posted a framed portrait of Greg donning his firefighter uniform in a photo that appears to be on display at her dad’s gravesite.


“Rest in peace daddy,” Hudgens wrote as a caption to this image on Instagram.


In her third and final Snapchat video, Vanessa showed people dancing and wrote, “This is how you celibate [sic] a life.” 


Three days prior to posting these videos, pictures and messages, Hudgens shared a quote via her Instagram page that read, “I wish heaven had visiting hours.”


She captioned it, “If only…”


We continue to send our condolences to Vanessa Hudgens and her loved ones.


Leah Messer: Everything is Fine! I Swear!

It’s been a rough week for Leah Messer, but we’re pretty that’s true of every week of her adult life.



First we learned the Leah and T.R. Dues had broken up.


Then we found out that Leah may have dumped T.R. for Jeremy Calvert, her second husband and father of her youngest child whom she’s reportedly been hooking up with in recent weeks. 


Then came news that Calvert had reunited with ex-girlfirend Brooke Wehr, which needless to say, was probably not part of Leah’s plan.


Despite all that turmoil, Leah has recently been tweeting goofy photos like the one above, which was captioned:


“Don’t mind my faces, just being fun. I don’t know if I could ever be boring. Haha. Always gotta be doing something silly. Xoxo #sillyfaces #happy #healthy”


We’re not saying for certain that Leah’s happiness isn’t genuine, but she has a long history of pretending everything is fine when her world is falling apart around her.  


We all have that Facebook friend who starts frantically posting inspirational quote memes and manically-grinning selfies when we know they’re struggling, and sometimes it feels like Leah is that type.


We hope she really is having no trouble moving on from her latest romantic setbacks, bet her attempts to convince us that everything is kosher aren’t working.

Lamar Odom"s Friend Warns: Don"t Get Back Together With Khloe!

He’s not back to 100%, but those close to Lamar Odom don’t want him getting any ideas about being with Khloe Kardashian.



Jim Harrick, Odom’s former basketball coach and friend of 20 years, spoke to Heat Magazine about visiting his friend.


“The concern now is getting him healthy and back to normal. He’s not himself yet,” Harrick, 77, explained.


Harrick revealed that Odom is as focused on his relationship with Kardashian as he is on his health.


“Lamar’s really concerned about the future and what’s going to happen next,” Harrick admitted.


“I’m just trying to be a friend. Lamar’s grateful for the support.


“You know who your friends are when stuff like this happens.” 


Harrick is worried what might happen if Odom and Kardashian toss out the divorce filing and give their marriage another try.


 “I worry what might happen if things fall apart again [with Khloe],” Harrick told the magazine, adding that they were “on hold right now.”


On Sunday, Odom joined Kardashian and her older sister, Kim for a hike in Calabasas, which Odom was able to complete.


Still, Harrick wants Odom (who is “still living in a rehab facitlity) to put his health above all else.


“All his kidneys and lungs and everything have come back to normal. He’s lost a bit of memory and was forgetting things. I wouldn’t say he’s 100 percent, but slowly he’s getting better. We’re taking it day by day.”


Gregg Popovich is All of Us When It Comes to Donald Trump

Gregg Popovich is known for a couple things in professional basketball.


First, for being one of the best coaches in NBA history, a five-time World Champion whose San Antonio Spurs are the model of consistency, professionalism and excellence.


But also for being short and ornery during league-mandated interviews in between quarters during nationally-televised games.


So there was Popovich on Tuesday night, being asked a question about his team"s first quarter performance by David Aldridge of TNT and responding in typical fashion.


His team was "crappy on defense," Popovich said, and his overall impression was that the opponent was "ahead" because they scored more points than San Antonio.


But then Aldridge asked if Popovich wanted to know the results of the New Hampshire Primary because he had apparently been asking about it on the bench beforehand.


Upon being told that Donald Trump was victorious on the Republican side and that Bernie Sanders defeated Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side… well… Popovich didn"t have a lot more to say.


But his reaction likely spoke for millions of people around the world who are now faced with the very real possibility that Donald Trump could be our next President.
