Billionaire Jessica Alba Still Buys Her Own Groceries With The Fam

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 12:13pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Jessica Alba may be the co-founder of a billion-dollar business but that doesn't mean she doesn't buy her own food!

The movie star-turned-business woman grabbed some groceries at high-end market Bristol Farms on Sunday. Alba was joined by her hubby Cash Warren and their two little girls Honor, seven, and Haven, four, at the supermarket in Beverly Hills.

It looks like the fam was shopping for a special occasion -- they had a bounty of white hydrangeas and a mound of ice in their shopping carts. We have a feeling the family of four had a fun-filled BBQ at their home. Umm can we come?!

Jessica looked easy breezy in a blue dress, layered under a white cardigan. The 34-year-old kept her off-duty outfit cool with a pair of sandals. Cash opted for a white shirt and blue shorts and their two daughters looked adorbs in summery frocks.

What a sweet family!

 

Bill Cosby's Alleged Victims Take A Stand On The Cover Of New York Magazine

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 11:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


The tides have certainly turned for disgraced TV icon Bill Cosby, who has been accused of sexual molestation by dozens upon dozens of women.

Thirty-five of the former Cosby Show star's alleged victims came together to stand strong against their accuser, posing for a power photograph for the cover of the July 27 edition of New York magazine. The public's hunger for more information around this increasingly shocking story is clear -- New York magazine's website crashed Monday morning for over six hours and is still down. The mag's headline reads, "Cosby: The Women. An unwelcome sisterhood."

On the cover, 35 women, who range in age and ethnicity, are lined up on chairs, with their names underneath their images, thus ending their anonymity. Within the pages of the magazine, each woman shares her own account of what happened, including an essay by Noreen Malone. Photographer Amanda Demme also took individual shots of each woman as well as group portraits.

Malone says in her essay:
    "The group of women Cosby allegedly assaulted functions almost as a longitudinal study - both for how an individual woman, on her own, deals with such trauma over the decades and for how the culture at large has grappled with rape over the same time period. In the '60s, when the first alleged assault by Cosby occurred, rape was considered to be something violent committed by a stranger … But among younger women, and particularly online, there is a strong sense now that speaking up is the only thing to do, that a woman claiming her own victimhood is more powerful than any other weapon in the fight against rape."


The mag's feature includes testimony and photographs that highlight the diversity and scale of Cosby's alleged victims.

In a 2005 deposition that was made public earlier this month, Cosby has claimed that his drug-fueled encounters were consensual -- but we think these accounts speak volumes.

Kudos to the women who came forward and told their truth -- they are helping themselves and others.

 

Ruby Rose And Fiancee Phoebe Dahl Are Still Going Strong At Melissa Etheridge Concert

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 9:50am PDT       By X17 Staff


For some reason we thought "It" girl Ruby Rose would have dropped her fiancee Phoebe Dahl as soon as she did a two-step with her recent insta-fame, courtesy of her sexy new role n Orange Is the New Black, but it seems as these two ladies in love are still in love.

The couple attended a Melissa Etheridge and Blondie concert last night at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday night. Ruby outfitted herself in her Justin Bieber-style best, an oversized Blondie shirt, ripped jeans and bright white sneakers. Her partner in crime donned a white shirt, leather skinnies and combat boots. Even though it was a warm summer night, Roald Dahl's granddaughter hid her locks under a beanie.

On Saturday, the 29-year-old and her lady love worked up a sweat as they played a game of soccer together with some friends at Griffith Park in Los Angeles. These two definitely still seem to be doing well despite Ruby's sudden shot to fame and subsequent partying with a new crew of A-listers including Justin Bieber.

Despite the coupled-up weekend, the Aussie star came under fire over earlier today after posting an Instagram pic with professional boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., who has been convicted several times of domestic battery.

In the snap, Mayweather has his arm around the actress and it is captioned, “The champ!” But many commenters are less than thrilled that he actress is posing with the fighter who was sentenced in 2011 to 90 days in prision after he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor battery and domestic violence.

Is the bloom off the Rose?

 

Ice T And Wife Coco Expecting First Child

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 8:50am PDT       By X17 Staff


What exciting news!

Ice T and wife Coco Austin revealed they are expecting their first child together during a taping of their new daytime talk show Ice and Coco on July 24, and the busty model followed it up with an announcement tweet.

"I'm pregnant! Yah! Ice & I are so excited!," she wrote. The rapper, 57, is already a father to two children and a 20-year-old grandson, but this will be his first with his lady love of 14 years.

The couple have been vocal about their desire to expand their family for years, and the blonde beauty's health struggles were chronicled on their E! reality show. The bombshell had dangerously high blood pressure that made carrying a child too risky, so she set about making a big effort to get her body ready for pregnancy.

We wonder what they will name their little bundle? Sweet T? Ice Jr?

 

Caitlyn Jenner Breaks Down Over Momentous Vanity Fair Cover In New Behind-The-Scenes Clip

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 7:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


We can only imagine how emotional this must have been!

By now, everyone has seen Caitlyn Jenner's iconic Vanity Fair cover, but it wasn't long ago that the Olympian and the VF team were going to extraordinary lengths to keep the first glimpses of her transition private until the time was right, they reveal in a new behind-the-scenes short documentary.

The 65-year-old reality star explains the isolation she felt during this process, and even breaks down at one point discussing the positive reaction she's received since announcing her plans to transition from male to female.

"I've basically been inside this house for three months. I haven't really left. It's difficult because I can't go out and be seen by the paparazzi. It was just hell. It was really, really tough on me," she confessed about the months leading up to the mag hitting the newsstands.

VF editor Graydon Carter admitted they brought in maximum security to protect the issue and Cait's privacy, which was important in ensuring the pivotal moment in history went down without a hitch. "He was at a stage in his life where he was going to make this seismic change. I thought this cover, if we got it right, with a great image from Annie Leibovitz, you've got this incredible cresting political issue of transgender…" he says in the video. "We brought in the security that we use for the Oscar party, for the Whitehouse Correspondents' Dinner... We had security at the photoshoot, security at the printer," he continues.

For her part, the E! starlet couldn't be more appreciative of the welcoming she's received as her new authentic female self. "It's been great, so many good people, and love and support. I had this one time where I looked from a distance and I just thought, 'Oh my god!' It was the first time I'd ever really seen an image of me, who I am. Over-the-top better than I ever thought I'd ever be, especially at my age. Seeing that image was powerful to me," she gushed while wiping away tears.

We saw more emotional moments on last night's I Am Cait premiere, including son-in-law Kanye West praising her for rising up against enormous public opinion and daughter Kylie meeting her for the first time on FaceTime.

As if things couldn't be better, her son Brandon and his wife Lea just welcomed daughter Eva James over the weekend, so she's a grandma again!

Brad Pitt Looks Ten Years Younger After Shaving His Face And Dyeing His Hair Blonde!

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 7:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


Brad Pitt breezed through Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday afternoon, and he wasn't exactly in the mood to strike a pose and chat with us, but the clean-shaven star did flash us a quick smile -- along with a peek at his freshly-dyed blonde locks AND his beefy pecs! No dad bod here....

While Brad seems fine, rumor has it he's on the verge of divorcing wife Angelina Jolie. And get this -- the National Enquirer reports that the couple may lose custody of their daughter Zahara. What?! While it sounds a little bit hokey, apparently 10-year-old Zahara has expressed an interest in going home to Ethiopia to live with her "real mother." While it was initially reported that Zahara was orphaned, some years later her birth mother, Mentewab Dawit, reportedly came forward and revealed that her family gave Zahara up for adoption.

"The kids flipped out when Vivienne landed a role in her mother’s film Maleficent," a source tells the tabloid. "Yet another bone of contention is that Shiloh has been tagging along with her mother on humanitarian work around the globe. Brad believes that Angie may be putting Shiloh in danger by taking her to refugee camps. Add this to Zahara’s desire to return to Ethiopia and it could set off the fight to end all fights." Yikes! Think that's true?

 

The Kardashians Slip Into Sexy Outfits To Celebrate Their Grandmother's Birthday

Posted on Mon Jul 27th, 2015 6:20am PDT       By X17 Staff


The women of the Kardashian-Jenner family never miss a chance to get all dolled up! And when we say all dolled up, what we really mean is putting their boobs and booties on display! It seems like every time we've seen Kourtney lately her tatas are nearly falling out of her top, which is almost more distracting than pregnant sister Kim's growing belly! Then again, it does seem like a pretty good way to show estranged baby daddy Scott Disick what he's missing...

Kim, Kourtney, Kylie, Kendall and Kris spent most of their Sunday together, and from Kim's baby bump to Kourtney's cleavage (not to mention yet another scandalicious outfit from Kylie!) there was a WHOLE lot to look at. The ladies (plus Corey Gamble) started off by heading to a bash in Hollywood to celebrate the birthday of Kris Jenner's mom, Mary Jo Campbell, and they later stopped by the Ivy in West Hollywood for lunch. Kendall and Kylie were also spotted with their grandma at Pantages after catching a performance of The Phantom of the Opera, so from parties to plays, it seems like the group had quite the busy day.

But where was Khloe? While the reality starlet did post a pic of herself with Mary Jo (she captioned the shot, "MJ x KoKo. She's a legend in my eyes! 😍"), we didn't see her or Rob out and about with the rest of the family....hmmm!

 

BREAKING NEWS -- Bobbi Kristina Brown Passes Away At Age 22

Posted on Sun Jul 26th, 2015 10:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Bobbi Kristina Brown has died at the age of 22.

The only daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown passed away at Peachtree Christian Hospice near Atlanta, Georgia after being moved there in late June. She was surrounded by family and friends at the time of her death.

The Houston family said in a statement:
    "Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God. We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months."

Brown was found facedown in her bathtub on January 31, and two days after the accident she was put on life support. In February doctors performed a tracheotomy on the aspiring singer, and a week after that she was taken off life support, but just a day later she was hooked back up after suffering several seizures.

In April Brown's grandmother Cissy Houston chatted with Entertainment Tonight and revealed that Bobbi Kristina was "not progressing at all." Houston added, "She's not gone yet, but you know, whatever the Lord decides, I'm ready for her ... I have nothing to do with that. That's His job. It's His territory, you know? And I understand it."

Shortly after Bobbi Kristina was put on life support, her father Bobby said in a statement, "We are asking you to honor our request for privacy during this difficult time. We are currently investigating the events that led to [her] hospitalization." Bobby made a point of telling the press that his daughter was not married to partner Nick Gordon, who is still reportedly at the center of the criminal investigation.

RIP.
