Viola Beach Members ALL Killed in Horrific Car Crash

Tragedy has struck the world of music.


All four members of the British band Viola Beach were killed in a car accident on Saturday, according to The Associated Press.

The musicians – Kris Leonard, River Reeves, Tomas Lowe and Jack Dakin, all aged between 19 and 32 – were traveling in a rental car near Stockholm, Sweden when they crashed through a barrier set up to prevent vehicles from crossing an opening drawbridge.


The vehicle reportedly fell more than 80 feet into a canal, killing all four group members and manager Craig Tarry.


It was Tarry’s family, via Britain’s Foreign Office, that confirmed this horrible news.


“Craig was a warm, loving person who had worked tirelessly to achieve success and follow his dreams within the music industry,” their statement reads.


The band itself had performed at the Where is the Music? festival on Friday and was traveling back to Guildford, England when the crash took place.


“Our deepest sympathy to the family’s and friends of #ViolaBeach today. So so sad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you,” Tweeted The Script in response to the news.


A spokeswoman for the U.K.’s Foreign Office tells CNN that British officials are “in contact with Swedish authorities and supporting the families at this very difficult time,” while trying to get to the bottom of what happened.


We send our condolences to the loved ones of Viola Beach.


Kate Middleton: Announcing Third Pregnancy This WEEK???

Forget taking out an ad to make an announcement.  She’s taking over the entire operation!



Or so some think.


On February 17th, the Duchess of Cambridge will serve as guest editor of Huffington Post UK to highlight children’s mental health issues.


“The Duchess of Cambridge has made the mental health of young children a key focus of her work in recent years,” Kensington Palace stated in a press release.


“She is delighted that The Huffington Post will help put a spotlight on this important issue.”


Select members of the Huff PO UK team will work alongside Catherine at the palace, as she commissions “contributions from a number of leading figures in the mental health sector as well as from young people, parents, and teachers.”


Celebrity Dirty Laundry believes that Catherine will use her platform that day to announce baby (or babies) #3.


“Royal watchers are wondering whether or not the Duchess of Cambridge will also let the world know a third Royal baby is on the way,” the site speculates.


“Will Duchess Kate break with tradition and share the good news during the Huff Post U.K. guest editor gig? Formal pregnancy and birth announcements usually come from Buckingham Palace. But Princess Kate has never been one to follow Royal protocol.”


My theory is that Catherine would not want to take away from the point of her temporary position by making it all about her pregnancy.  


Mental wellness is a cause close to her heart, as she is patron of The Art Room and Place2Be, two charities that use creative therapy to help children deal with personal problems.


Making such an announcement would be a little tasteless and out of character for Her Royal Highness.


Teresa Giudice: Trying to Get Pregnant Before Joe Goes to Jail?!

Last week, it was widely reported that Teresa Giudice is pregnant with her fifth child.


Now, it seems the tabloid media may have jumped the gun – but not by much.



Sources tell In Touch that Teresa is indeed trying to get pregnant before Joe begins his 41-month prison sentence next month.


“They are definitely trying to have a baby,” a source close to the situation tells the magazine.


And in case you weren’t clear on how that works and/or just wanted to picture Juicy Joe sweating and thrusting, the source is happy to paint a picture:


“She and Joe have been intimate since she got out of prison in December,” the insider reveals.


“She really seems to be glowing right now. She looks like she could be pregnant already,” says a different source.


Teresa’s former cellmate confirms that the reality star talked about her desire for a fifth child while she was still behind bars:


“She talked about it when we would all pass around baby photos,” says Deseree Bradshaw.


Of course, for Teresa, having another baby is about more than just continuing to pass on her genes for the world’s lowest hairline.


“Teresa knows a baby would be ratings gold, especially with her as a single mother with Joe in jail,” says one insider. “And it would be a dream for Bravo, too. Everybody wins.”


And there’s still the possibility that Joe will be deported after he’s through with his sentence, which is apparently part of why he’s eager to donate his sperm.


“He believes that if Teresa has a baby, there’s a better chance she would follow him to Italy,” says a source.


Yes, it certainly sounds like a win-win for everyone involved – except for the kid, who doesn’t even exist yet, and is already being used as a pawn by his parents.


Hey, at least he’ll get to be on TV!


Kim Kardashian: Did Her Instagram Hint at Split From Kanye West?

Kanye West is going off the rails, Kim Kardashian is reportedly talking to divorce lawyers. 


It"s a mess.  Things are messy.


The public is used to celebrities going on Twitter rants, and the latest is no exception.


West sounded absolutely crackers yesterday on the social media network, sending out tweet after tweet about needing money to make more music, and begging Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for a loan.


"I write this to you my brothers while still 53 million dollars in personal debt… Please pray we overcome… This is my true heart…" 


"Mark Zuckerberg I know it’s your bday but can you please call me by 2mrw…


"I don’t have enough resources to create what I really can… Mark, I am publicly asking you for help…"


West"s co-writer Rhymefest, made it known that he believes West needs to take a time-out.


When an Australian fan tweeted, "I wish @RHYMEFEST was co-writer of #KanyeWest "s Twitter & media statements. Worked with the music, should work with the other stuff, right?," the rapper and songwriter responded:


"My brother needs help, in the form of counseling. Spiritual & mental. He should step away from the public & yesmen & heal," and later added "his mind and spirit isn"t right."


Radar Online believes that Kardashian is contemplating divorce, interpreting her latest Instagram video, featuring the mom-of-two rolling around on a bed of roses as "icy."


"Hard to love a girl like me,” Nina Simone sang as Kardashian giggled into a flower. “I don’t blame you much for wanting to be free.”


This doesn"t look like a woman upset over her broken marriage.  It looks like Kardashian is, yet again, showing off her "artsy" side.
