She's handling it like a pro!
Kris Jenner stopped by the Ellen DeGeneres show and talked about a number of things -- including her ex Caitlyn Jenner, formerly Bruce Jenner, and her dating life.
The host got personal and said, "The last time you were here on the show, you were here with Bruce on Valentine’s Day. And now she is Caitlyn. It's confusing because for a while she was not saying whether she was going to date women or men, and now apparently she has said that she's going to date men."
Kris kept pretty quiet on the top but said, "I saw that, too." The 60-year-old added that the situation was "confusing for sure." But the mom of six added, "I think that I really want her to be happy and be really comfortable in all the things where she says she wasn’t her true authentic self for most of her life. [She] knew when she was 4 that she felt like that. So you don’t want somebody to be miserable or in pain or anything of that."
We're sure it must be awkward for Kris to see her ex of 23 years' love life splashed all over the news, but personally can't wait to see what happens next!

Whatever she did, she looks great!
Britney Spears' lips look suspiciously plump on the cover of the new V magazine, which may explain why we think she looks hotter than ever! The pop princess was chosen as the cover girl for the glossy as they make the transition from covering fashion to pop culture, and it couldn't have been a more perfect fit.
During the interview, Brit Brit opened up about the pressures of fame and insisted she's adjusted to life in the limelight.
"Whoever is in the spotlight, people are really quick to judge … You know, Justin Bieber, he's huge, and he experiences that. It's just the way the world works, unfortunately. I've been doing this for 20 years. I kind of don't pay attention to it. I have my relationship with God and myself and that's what matters to me. I really don't care what most people think," she confessed.
She does seem happier and healthier than we've ever seen her!
The DJ just inked a deal with Jay Z's music management company, Roc Nation, and Jay himself has signed to be Khaled's manager.
We caught Khaled stopping to smell the roses (literally) after the whole thing went down!
Khaled announced the news today in a video he posted on Instagram. The heavily produced video shows Khaled wearing a Roc-a-Fella chain, which was given to him by Jay who claims it's the last original one.
I“I don’t have an original one," Jay told Khaled. "I don’t own an original one, like at all, zero. This is my last one. This is my last. This is the one I put in the corner. This is mine. I don’t own another one. I don’t. I don’t own another one. This is my joint."
Very few people can claim to be owners of Roc-a-Fella necklaces -- Cam'ron, Freeway, ODB, Beanie Sigel, Memphis Bleek, Beyonce, J. Cole, Kanye West, LeBron James, Curren$y and now Khaled all own them. That's some serious bling with some serious names!
Interestingly, Khaled recently debuted a radio show called Beats on Apple Music, which is a competitor of Jay Z's Tidal.
We wonder how Jay and Tidal will handle that -- as well as how the controversial music streaming service is handling the $5 million class-action lawsuit filed by Yesh Music Publishing and John Emanuele (of the duo American Dollar). The lawsuit is claiming that the "artist friendly" music streaming persona is nothing more than a sham and they are owed some serious money.
The plaintiff is seeking $5 million in unpaid royalties and copyright infringement damages, alleging that Tidal licensed at least 118 of American Dollar’s songs without the duo’s permission, and has never paid them royalties.
Tidal tells Vulture that Yesh Music and Emanuele are wrong about the royalties and removed American Dollar’s music from its service.
Tidal released this statement, "Tidal is up to date on all royalties for the rights to the music stated in Yesh Music, LLC and John Emanuele’s claim and they are misinformed as to who, if anyone, owes royalty payments to them. As Yesh Music, LLC admits in their claim, TIDAL has the rights to the Master Recordings through its distributor Tunecore and have paid Tunecore in full for such exploitations. Their dispute appears to be over the mechanical licenses, which we are also up to date on payments via Harry Fox Agency our administrator of mechanical royalties."

She tells it like it is!
Jennifer Lopez appeared on Watch What Happens Live on Monday night and couldn't contain her true feelings when asked about her ex-fiance Ben Affleck's massive back tattoo during her Plead the Fifth segment.
"It's awful! And I would tell him that. What are you doing? It has too many colors! His tattoos always have too many colors. They shouldn't be so colorful, you know what I mean? They should be, like, cooler." the singer quipped. Ouch!
Jenny from the block also addressed her rumored feud with Mariah Carey, and why she was texting during Mimi's performance at the Billboard Music Awards last year. "That was not fair, them with the texting thing, because I watched a lot of it — it was a long performance, OK! I may have looked down for one second, and people were like, 'Look at her! Look at her!' It's so not fair, so not fair. I was watching her the whole time," she insisted.
One thing she shied away from during the tell-all game? A round of Marry, Shag, Kill with American Idol judges Ryan Seacrest, Keith Urban, and Harry Connick Jr.

Chrissy Teigen made her way through Los Angeles International Airport on Monday, and after showing a number of faces on Oscar Sunday, the pregnant supermodel remained nearly expressionless when X17 photographers snapped her photo.
In case you missed it, Chrissy made quite a face during actress Stacey Dash's brief speech at the Academy Awards. "I cannot wait to help my people out," Dash said. "Happy Black History Month!" Dash was of course referencing remarks she made last month regarding her dislike for Black History Month and the BET Awards, and this was all while addressing the lack of diversity among this year's Oscar nominees.
While screenshots of Teigen's face were initially believe to be a reaction to Sarah Silverman's appearance, Teigen herself clarified that the awkward faces were in response to Dash. "No I am not good at poker," she later added. Wonder what Dash has to say about this?

Kourtney Kardashian and daughter Penelope met up with Kris Jenner in Calabasas on Monday, and holy cornrows! That hair HAS to be inspired by auntie Kim Kardashian, right?
Kourtney carried her middle child in her arms and gave us a peek at her amazing abs, and Kris was all smiles as she waved to fans and photogs near her car. We're not sure where the rest of Kourt's kiddos were, but it must have been nice for Penelope to get some girl time with mom and grams!
In other news, in a recent clip of “Know Thy Sister Part 2†on Kourt’s app, Kourt and Khloe got into it about high school crushes. And who was the object of Kourtney's affection? None other than Leonardo DiCaprio!
“I used to write my name like Kourtney DiCaprio in class,†she admitted to Khloe. “You’re obsessed with 90210, I just assumed you wanted to bone one of those guys," Khloe replied. "You’re a Brian Austin Green type of girl." Oh yikes.

Jennifer Garner was on mommy duty with daughter Seraphina on Monday, and she seemed a bit down in the dumps when we first caught up with her. Perhaps she was tired from the Oscars the previous night? Or is she just as confused as we are as to the status of her relationship with estranged hubby Ben Affleck? Of course, after spending a little bit of of time at a local store with little miss Sera, Jen was practically beaming, so it seems like it wasn't too big of a deal...
First reports surfaced that Ben and Jen had a cold exchange at the Vanity Fair bash last night (he was also partying with old pal Leonardo DiCaprio), but we snapped the estranged spouses together over the weekend RIGHT after Jen's VF interview came out, in which she called him "the love of her life," among other things. If they were really rebounding and/or on bad terms, don't you think they would be spending more time apart?
So, are they or aren't they back on?! They say they're not, but they also said they weren't splitting right before that happened, so we never know what to believe!

If you were watching the Oscars last night and thinking Reese Witherspoon looked like she was preggers -- you aren't the only ones. We definitely thought so too!
Our photogs caught the Oscar winner earlier in the day fresh off a trip to the gym and our eyes couldn't avoid her tummy and what looks like a possible baby bump.
We've been spying the country gal around town over the past week (that lady loves to run errands) and we've noticed that she's put on a little weight in her midsection. Now that may just be some leftover holiday pounds, but she works out a lot -- so we think it's more likely that the mom of three has another bun in the oven.
Reese is 39 -- and by midwestern standards she's over the hill but in Hollywood, the blonde is still a spring chicken. She could still have lots of babies!
Reese is mother to Ava Elizabeth Phillippe and Deacon Reese Phillippe, her two kids with ex Ryan Phillippe, as well as her son with Jim Toth, Tennessee James Toth.
So you know what we think about Reese getting ready to have another bundle of love, but what do YOU think?
