Life isn't really getting better for Olivia Jade and Bella Giannulli as their parents Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli are about to head back to court in the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal ... 'cause now, the girls have been kicked out of their sorority at USC, to add insult to injury!
Of course Olivia and Bella had already stopped attending the prestigious private school following the FBI investigation that busted their parents and many others for paying a college admissions counselor to help them get into USC. Here's what reportedly happened at the KKG house: "Olivia and Bella were both in Kappa Kappa Gamma and the sorority has since kicked them out and is trying to distance themselves from the situation as much as possible,†a source tells Us Weekly.
Meanwhile, Olivia and Bella have made a quiet return to Instagram -- posting birthday messages to their mom the other day. Lori turned 55 over the weekend and celebrated with a small family gathering at their Beverly Hills home. Lori and Mossimo are due back in court Aug. 27 where they are expected to waive their rights to separate representation, choosing to share the same lawyer in their defense, presenting a united front to the jury. Felicity Huffman has done the opposite -- her husband William H. Macy wasn't indicted in the scandal so she's on her own. If found guilty, she'll take the fall for having paid William "Rick" Singer, the college admissions consultant, to fudge the couple's daughter's SAT scores for in exchange for a $15,000 payment to singer's fake non-profit.
Loughlin and Giannulli are currently in LA, attending Good Shepherd Catholic Church every Sunday. Lori was seen out shopping over the weekend and for the most part, they're going about their normal daily lives ... with the threat of a jail term hanging over them every single day. Gotta be stressful!

Check this out! Have you ever seen so many black SUVs and beefy dudes dressed in black before?!
We spotted Justin Bieber leaving the DogPound gym on Monday and when he returned to his Beverly Hills mansion, we found THIS!!
Check out the video above -- there were at least six black SUVs outside of Justin and Hailey's house, waiting in the street, with a few guys walking around monitoring the situation. And "the situation" was that Mr. and Mrs. Bieber were about to head to the airport to leave for Japan. The pair packed up and headed to Asia late Monday. Of course they had their face masks packed and Justin, his Crocs ... wait, his CROCS?! Yep ... check this out!

This is WEIRD! This cute model Carissa Pinkston posted some random, transphobic comments on social media and was getting tons of backlash, obvi. Her modeling agency dropped her. She was out of work and people were pissed at her. So what'd she do? Well ...
Let's start at the beginning ... here's what she posted on Facebook: "Being Transgender does NOT make you a Woman. It makes you simply transgender,†and, “Being Transgender does not make you a woman in a Transgender context according to gender and sex. This is how they want to be perceived. In a biological context there are Females and Males. This is the world in 2019."
THEN, after her post was copied and circulated online and her agency fired her, she decided saying THIS would be a good idea ...
"I wasn’t ready to come about it yet but today I got fired and I’ve been receiving hate mail and death threats ever since so I’m being forced to tell the truth. I’m Transgender. I transitioned at a very young age and I’ve lived my Life as a female ever since. It’s been very hard to keep this secret but what I said about Trans-Women is a direct reflection of my inner securities and I have since come to realize that I am a Woman. WE ALL ARE!"
Then a fellow model -- who really is trans and who knows Carissa -- wrote this ...
Pinkston then countered with an apology, realizing the whole thing was a HUGE mistake -- but is this too little too late? "I panicked and I thought if I came out as Trans that I could somehow make things better for myself but it appears I’ve only made things worse,†she wrote. “I’m truly sorry. I’m only 20 and I’m human. I make mistakes but I refuse to let them define me. I hope you all can forgive me and move on from this because I’m so much more than this incident and I’m not a coward."

Is Kanye going hip-hop hipster with his new facial hair?! The rapper-designer-god took daughter Nori to a daddy-and-me playgroup on Sunday (so cute!) and showed off his new facial hair and his ... sorry, Ye ... his emerging dad bod!
The artist known as Yeezy is really adapting to his role as a father-of-four and perhaps staying home, nesting and bonding with his baby boy Psalm has caused him to put on a few pounds and give up the razor.
On a side note, in case you missed Kanye's version of Gwen Stefani's "Don't Speak/Lord Speaks" at his previous Sunday Service, check out the former No Doubt singer's Instagram post below ...
Meet the parents! Now Camila Cabello's bringing her FAMILY to see rumored beau Shawn Mendes as the clan was spotted at the heartthrob's Miami, Florida show on Sunday.
In a fan video, Camila is seen dancing in a VIP box seat along with her mom Sinuhe Estrabao, father Alejando Cabello, and her sister Sofia, 12.
The pair have been rumored to be dating since they were spotted getting cozy at a Fourth of July party in Hollywood. Since then there've been lots of sightings, a denial by Shawn, and so much Insta-love that it's OBVIOUS these two are an item. We wish they'd make it official!

When can a selfie be selfless? I guess if it's Kim Kardashian standing in front of prisoners, along with a Georgetown professor who teaches about prison reform and you're shooting a documentary from Oxygen network, THAT'S when!
Well that's what Kim posted about yesterday when she announced she's shooting a doc about her primary social cause -- prison reform. The reality star says she hopes "you will learn about the justice system the way I have." Well, I doubt we'll all spend our evenings and weekends reading law books and trying to take the bar on our own, but maybe there's something we can glean from Kimmy drawing attention to a broken system that falsely and unnecessarily imprisons thousands of men and women each year.
On a less serious note ... Kim also took to Twitter to give the world and update on her Kimono shapewear line and its rebranding -- because we were all on the edges of our seats about this! She explains how she's trying to cover up the Kimono name that's been printed on the inside of two million garments that have already been produced and stamped with the old name. Her "progress report" is basically PR to explain how she's trying not to be "wasteful" in trying to salvage the stock they already have. Fair enough ... but we actually thought Kimono was a decent name and didn't find it offensive. Sorry!
