...or his current girlfriend, for that matter. Turns out, it's his teenage sister Lottie!
On Tuesday One Direction hottie Louis Tomlinson stepped out for coffee in Los Angeles with a few pals and his little sister, and he appeared to be in a great mood. Seeing as he's currently battling ex Briana Jungwirth over a custody agreement regarding their son Freddie, it's good to see him looking so carefree!
Tomlinson is apparently close to reaching a temporary settlement with Jungwirth, but TMZ reports that a major condition of the agreement is preventing Louis' new girlfriend, Danielle Campbell, from seeing the baby boy. Jungwirth is concerned about any interaction Campbell might have during the "critical bonding period" between mother and son, and she only wants the pop star to visit Freddie at her house, alone. Translation: She's lime green jello.
TMZ also claims the former couple squabbled over money, with relations "going sour" when Jungwirth asked for "way more" than Tomlinson wanted to give her.

Hailey Baldwin went shopping and grabbed Starbucks in Beverly Hills on Tuesday, and we noticed a brand new handbag on her arm. Is this pricey Saint Laurent bag a gift from boy toy Justin Bieber? And where is the Biebs, anyway?
Hailey may have gone to the Oscar parties with pal Lewis Hamilton, but we're willing to bet that it will only be a matter of days before she's back in Bieber's arms. However, after his recent GQ interview, in which he essentially says he doesn't want anything serious with Hailey at the moment, we can see why she'd want to do everything in her power to make him jealous.
“I don’t want to put anyone in a position where I feel like I’m only theirs, only to be hurt in the end,†Justin told GQ. “Right now in my life, I don’t want to get held down by anything. I already have a lot that I have to commit. A lot of responsibilities. I don’t want to feel like the girl I love is an added responsibility. I know that in the past I’ve hurt people and said things that I didn’t mean to make them happy in the moment. So now I’m just more so looking at the future, making sure I’m not damaging them. What if Hailey ends up being the girl I’m gonna marry, right? If I rush into anything, if I damage her, then it’s always gonna be damaged. It’s really hard to fix wounds like that. It’s so hard … I just don’t want to hurt her.â€

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.
