Jessica Simpson Posts Bikini Pic, Reveals She"s "Gettin" It"

Odds are you’ve seen Jessica Simpson in a bikini before, and if not, we really have to question the choices you’ve made with your life.


Racy photos of Jessica are nothing new, but they never get old. Take Jess’ latest Instagram upload, for example:



Yes, the 35-year-old mother of two rocked a red bikini top in honor of Valentine’s Day. 


Oh, and her husband is there, too. But we’re guessing he’s not the reason this pic racked up 47,000 likes.


Not that we’re pitying Eric Johnson, of course. Jess captioned the photo “#ThisJohnsonIsGettinIt,” just in case you had any doubts that the couple thoroughly enjoyed their holiday together.


So in case the two kids weren’t sufficient evidence that this married couple totally has sex, you now have Jessica’s hashtagged confirmation. Take note.


Seriously though, it’s nice to see that these two are still head-over-heels for one another.


We don’t want to jinx them, but they seem to be the rare celebrity couple that actually gets stronger the longer they’re together.


We think. Maybe we’re just reading too much into a photo of Jessica’s boobs.


In any event, this is a solid return to form, and it beats the hell out of that pic of Eric getting weird with Jessica’s mom.


We’ve tried to block that one out, but it just won’t go away.


Martin Shkreli: Robbed of $15 Million While Attempting to Purchase Kanye West Album

When most people want to buy an album, they open up iTunes and shell out the necessary $ 9.99.


When Martin Shkreli wants to buy an album, he wants fork over more cash than most people make their entire lives so that no one else can ever listen to it.



This obnoxious habit began when the much-reviled “pharma bro” paid $ 2 million for the sole copy of a Wu Tang Clan album that had previously been stored in a vault in Morocco.


The odd arrangement was orchestrated by Wu Tang members with the idea that whoever purchased the disc would in some way distribute it to the public. 


They didn’t account for someone like Shkreli, who appears to have no plans to share the album with anyone outside of his inner circle.


Apparently, Shkreli is really relishing the title of Most-Hated Man in Hip Hop, as he attempted to pull a similar stunt last week when he offered to buy the sole rights to Kanye West’s new album, The Life of Pablo, for $ 10 million.


Unfortunately for Shkreli, Kanye’s people saw through the offer as an obvious attempt to prevent, or at least delay, the album’s release.


Even more unfortunate for Shkreli is the fact that karma’s a bitch.


The 32-year-old former hedge fund manager – who first made headlines for jacking up the price of a life-saving medication when he was CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals – upped his offer to $ 15 million following Kanye’s star-studded release party.


With that kind of cash on the table, Shkreli was bound to generate some interest.


Hilariously, that interest came from someone who’s probably never even met Kanye.


Shkreli took to Twitter yesterday alleging that  he had been bilked of $ 15 million in Bitcoin by someone who identified himself as a friend of Kanye’s named Daquan.


Apparently, Shkreli was under the impression that Daquan would pass the money along to Kanye, who he believed had agreed to sell the rights to the album.


You’d think a guy who’s famous for screwing people over wouldn’t be quite so trusting.


“WHO THE F-CK HAS MY FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS??????” an increasingly irate Shkreli tweeted yesterday afternoon.


“SOMEONE NAMED DAQUAN SAID HE WAS KANYES BOY AND I SIGND THE DEAL TO BUY PALBO AND SENT THE BITCOIN. CALL THE POLICE THIS IS BULLSH-T


“I hope you all enjoy this stupid music SO much and the fact it has brought me so much pain and suffering. I quit rap.”


The irony of that statement is probably lost on Martin, but we’re sure there are many people who enjoy the album much more precisely for that reason.


MTV Sets "Teen Mom 2" Premiere Date, Forgets to Tell Kailyn Lowry

OMG so awkward.



Cameras have likely been following Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry around to tape season seven, but it doesn’t look like the network sent Lowry the memo on a premiere date.


Without giving too much away, Lowry tweeted her frustration.


“LOVE when I’m a part of something and people don’t tell you big dates/important things! So professional”







Lowry has a lot on her plate these days, so her annoyance is warranted.  Her husband, Javi Marroquin was deployed with the Airforce, while she has to balance watching their two sons with school.


On top of that, Lowry is recovering from undergoing major cosmetic surgery in January, in which she got a butt lift, tummy tuck and breast implants.


Yesterday, Lowry informed viewers of her Valentine’s Day plans


“No intentions of leaving my house today,” Lowry tweeted.  “Happy Valentine’s Day y’all.”


The new season will show firsthand the drama Lowry, Jenelle Evans, Chelsea Houska and Leah Messer has endured since last season.


Evans and Messer have quite possibly made the most headlines since last season; Messer has been involved in a custody battle with ex-husband Corey Simms, and recently broke up with boyfriend-of-nine-months T.R. Dues.


Evans had ex-fiance Nathan Griffith arrested for stealing her car, and was recently admitted to the hospital for a mysterious illness.


Teen Mom 2 premieres March 21st on MTV.


Selena Gomez Defends Taylor Swift: She"s Killing It!

When it comes to Kanye West’s recent criticism of Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez really has just one response:


You gotta shake it off!



Late last week, of course, Kanye released a track in which he wondered whether he could have sex with Swift and also claimed that he made her famous by interrupting her on stage at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.


Kanye has since said those controversial lyrics were cleared by Swift before they went public…


… but Swift says otherwise.


What does Selena have to say about this scandal? Considering she’s best friends with Taylor Swift?


“Everybody has their own opinion,” Selena replied on SiriusXM Hits 1 over the weekend when asked about the rekindled feud between West and Swift.


“At the end of the day, you can just do what you do.”


That’s very vague and diplomatic.


What about Kanye’s assertion that he’s responsible for Swift’s wildly successful career?


“She’s killing it and she kind of always has been,” Selena said.


It is an ironic thing for West to allege, especially when you stop to realize that Swift was accepting the trophy for Best Video when Kanye broke into her speech six-plus years ago.


In other words: she had already made it big at the time.



A Swift spokesperson confirms that West and Swift talked before his new single went viral.


But she adds that Swift most definitely did not give the rapper any kind of approval, stating for the record:


“Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message.


“Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, ‘I made that bitch famous."”
