Chris Evans & Jenny Slate: Yep, They"re Really a Couple!

Last month, a little rumor flew on our radar about the possibility of Chris Evans dating Jenny Slate.


In fact, some say Slate dumped her husband of four years, Dean Fleischer-Camp, for the actor.



Reports of Evans and Slate"s dalliance hit right just after she separated from Fleischer-Camp, and this new couple seemed just random enough to be true.


And now, a few weeks later, Captain America and the quirky comedian have gone public.


Yep, they"re a bona fide couple, folks!


The pair hit the red carpet for the premiere of Slate"s animated film The Secret Life of Pets, and she opened up to ET about their romance.


When asked about their first appearance together, Slate confirmed they were an item.


"I haven"t really had a large premiere before, so it"s nice to have someone who knows how it goes," she said of having Evans with her for the premiere.


Evans, of course, rose to fame portraying Captain America in a number of big budget films about the Marvel character, so he"s been on many a red carpet in the past.



"And also, honestly, we"re just like both two teenagers from Massachusets so it kinda feels like I got my dream seventh grade boyfriend," she continued.


Uh, yeah. Most would agree that Chris Evans is a dream boyfriend regardless of age.


"We didn"t know each other growing up but we grew up about a half an hour from each other and we"ve been friends for a while, and… yeah," she added.


Slate did not, however, comment on the rumor that she was pregnant with Evan"s baby, probably because it was based solely on a tweet she posted about throwing up in the middle of the night, which could"ve just been attributed to a bad taco or something.


Evans and Slate met on the set of the upcoming film Gifted, on which they found mad chemistry together.


"Oddly enough, I"ve only known Jenny for a few months, which is insane to say because we"re like the same animal," Evans said of his co-star and now girlfriend.


If you"ve never heard of Slate, we suggest you get to know her.


Her indie flick Obvious Child won rave reviews and her appearances on Girls, House of Lies and Parks and Recreation are excellence showcases of her intelligence, wit and offbeat charm.

Kanye West to Stars in "Famous" Video: Go Ahead and Sue Me!

The internet is currently all worked up about the obsession-of-the-moment, Kanye West’s new music video for “Famous.”



In the vid, 12 very well-known celebrities appear butt naked lying catatonic in a giant bed together – and that’s about it.


Of course, the stars themselves – who included Taylor Swift, Donald Trump, Caitlyn Jenner and Amber Rose – didn’t actually strip down, hop in the sheets and yell, “Let’s do this!” 


More likely, their nude images were the product of crafty special effects or artfully molded wax. Have a look for yourself:



But due to the slim likelihood that the celebs gave Kanye permission to use their images, citizens have decried the video as an abomination and suspect the rapper may be sued.


Yeezy caught wind of said ire and took to Twitter as per usual to issue a response.


“Can somebody sue me already #I’llwait,” he tweeted not 24 hours after the video premiered.


But after his lawyers or Kim Kardashian or his rarely-seen common sense kicked him in the arse, he promptly deleted the tweet.


Fans suspect the star most likely to sue would be Taylor Swift.


Taylor and Kanye have engaged in a longstanding beef that was exacerbated by a line in “Famous” in which he says, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, I made that b**ch famous.”


Yeah, Tay-Tay didn’t love that.


But attorney David Pisarra doesn’t think Taylor nor any of the others would prevail in a defamation lawsuit against Kanye.


“She can sue for defamation of character and for misappropriation of name and likeness but it will be hard for her to prove damages in court,” Pisarra told HollywoodLife.


Pisarra did not, however, comment on whether Kanye infringed on the stars’ right of publicity, which indicates that individuals reserve the right to control the commercial use of their own image and likeness.


For the record, the complete list of celebrities who appear nude in the video are: Kanye, Kim Kardashian, George W. Bush, Anna Wintour, Donald Trump, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Ray J, Amber Rose, Caitlyn Jenner and Bill Cosby.


Some of them have responded publicly, and the internet reliably provided its hilarious take as well:


Michael Jackson Said WHAT About Prince?! Read His Scathing Comments

Fans have compared Michael Jackson and Prince on numerous occasions, and it’s easy to see the similarities between the two stars.




Michael Jackson and Prince



Both singers were eccentric, top-of-the-charts pop icons who rose to fame in the 80s with oft-controversial lyrics and always-stupefying dance moves.


But the two were hardly friends, we’ve now learned.


New recordings uncovered by The Mirror reveal some harsh words Jackson had for Prince 30 years ago.


“I don’t like to be compared to Prince at all,” the Thriller singer said in the tapes.


He went on:


“I have proven myself since I was real little. It’s not fair. He feels like I’m his opponent.


“I hope he changes because boy, he’s gonna get hurt. He’s the type that might commit suicide or something.”


Jackson also called his rival “rude,” “mean” and “nasty,” although he does not elaborate on any specific incidents between the two. 


“He was so rude, one of rudest people I have ever met,” he said. “Prince is very competitive. He has been very mean and nasty to my family.”



Unbelievably, the King of Pop made fun of Prince when he stumbled into the crowd onstage at a 1983 James Brown tribute show after he mistook a paper mache lamp post for a real one.


“He made a fool of himself. He was a joke,” Jackson mocked. “People were running and screaming. I was so embarrassed. It was all on video.”


Jackson, who had been in the public eye since he was a child, claimed that Prince was “starstruck” when they first met, but the Purple One shifted his attitude once he found fame himself.


Despite their differences, the two music legends unfortunately share one more similarity: both their deaths were caused by an overdose to physician-prescribed medication.


Toxicology results indicated that Prince died of an opioid overdose this year, assumed to be Percoset, which he was reportedly taking for hip pain.


Jackson’s death was attributed to a lethal dose of the sedative Propofol, administered by his doctor, Conrad Murray. 


Even stranger, Jackson named his third child Prince Michael Jackson, born in 2002.
