EXCLUSIVE VIDEO - Harry Styles Arrives Back In The States After All The One Direction Drama

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 10:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


He's baaaack! Everyone can start freaking out!

Harry Styles touched down at LAX yesterday with his guitar strapped to his back, and the One Direction star seemed to be in an upbeat mood despite all the drama his band has had to deal with in the days since Zayn Malik announced he was quitting. When asked about his former bandmate's departure, the sexy singer just gave a simple thumbs up. That's one way of not addressing anything!

The British boybander stopped off in South Africa to do some charity work with the Lalela Project, which helps underprivileged youth through creative art projects, before coming Stateside. Harry decided to go to the Lalela Project all by himself and he really impressed the kids and workers there. Harry could easily have spent extra time at his hotel relaxing. But he really wants to give back when the band are traveling the world and he likes to take these things on himself. This tour hasn't been easy for the boys but he knows that their lives are far better than many of their fans' and kids being helped by projects like this," a source dished to The Sun.

It's good Mr. Styles is doing stuff to take his mind off all the recent changes going on with 1D, but it sounds like the band is still pretty upset about Malik's decision to part ways.

"It's been a tough few weeks, probably the toughest since the band was formed five years ago. We're gutted that Zayn chose to leave, but now after a few performances as a four-piece, we're feeling confident and are determined to carry on stronger than ever," Liam Payne said in a chat with The Sun last week. "It's very exciting to be working on our fifth album. It shows how incredible the fans have been. A huge thank you to them for everything they've done for us. All the love to them," Styles added.

As long as Harry is still down to make music, 1D will keep rocking the charts!

 

Kim Zolciak Bashed By Online Trolls For Her "Chunky" Thighs

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 10:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


What is wrong with people?!

Kim Zolciak has been enduring a lot of criticism for her recent Instagram snapshots, and online troll's latest dig is that the reality star has "chunky" thighs! We personally think Kim Z's curves are beautiful!

"Yes I have thick or as some of my followers call them "chunky" legs (Rude A** People) always have and I love them that way! I love every inch of me and it's evident some of you don't. It's truly disheartening to see some of your comments because my kids see this stuff and I'm appalled. I guess it's time I stop posting personal pics of myself as well as my kids since some of you last night and today commented rudely about them. #GodDontLikeUgly," she wrote in response to the cruel jabs being made about her figure.

The blonde bombshell has had six kids and still has the bod of a 20-year-old, so we don't know what people are talking about!

 

Rihanna Slams Indiana's Controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act During Final Four

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 9:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


Rihanna is not a happy camper. During her performance before the NCAA March Madness Final Four in Indianapolis on Saturday, the wild singer stopped mid song to voice her discontent over Indiana's new Religious Freedom Restoration Act laws.

The singer debuted a new track "American Oxygen" to an enraptured audience at Indianapolis' White River State Park and during the diddy paused to address the controversial new law that allows businesses to discriminate based on sexual orientation.

Rihanna said, "Who's feeling these new bulls--t laws that they're trying to pass over here? I say f--k that s--t. I wanna hear you say, 'F--k that s--t' cause we're just living our motherf--king lives. Indiana!" 

The Grammy-winning artist then sang "Live Your Life," her 2008 hit with T.I. 

Many celebs, including Miley Cyrus, Seth MacFarlane, Ellen DeGeneres and Mark Ruffalo, have been outspoken about their disapproval of the law, which the Indiana governor Mike Pence has since amended to make clear that the law could not be used by businesses to discriminate against patrons on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity, reports MSNBC.

We are happy that even though Riri traveled to Indiana -- she used the opportunity to express her distaste for the homophobic laws. Way to go, Bad Gal!

 

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS - Sean Penn And Charlize Theron Enjoy A Lovey Dovey Dinner In Malibu

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 9:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


Talk about a hot couple!

Sean Penn and his fiancee Charlize Theron celebrated Easter Sunday by grabbing a romantic dinner in Malibu, and the pair must have gotten a babysitter to watch son Jackson so they could enjoy parent's night out. How gorgeous is the South African stunner without makeup? No wonder the Hollywood bad boy put a ring on it! Well, sort of… she's still not sporting a sparkler, but he did propose and file to adopt her toddler, so that's almost more official than a rock.

If you believe the reports, all might not be what it seems with the lovebirds, though! Rumor has it they're actually headed for a split! "It all started in February. Charlize was horrified by Sean’s green card joke at the Academy Awards. She thought the remark was very insensitive," a source dished to In Touch.

If she's expecting her man to publicly apologize, she shouldn't hold her breath! "In fact, I have a big [expletive] you for every... anybody who is so stupid not to have gotten the irony when you've got a country that is so xenophobic. If they had their way, you wouldn't have great filmmakers like Alejandro working in this country. Thank god we do. Look, am I surprised that I live in a idiocracy? No. When people seize a moment, they say ‘oh he talked about that thing that I can relate to that which identifies me as an activist or as a person with an opinion, hence I’ll jump on it and completely miss the irony of it," the Gunman star told HuffPo Live in a chat last week.

We hope they aren't having relationship trouble, because we love them together!

 

Taylor Swift Surprises Best Friend With A Birthday Serenade By Dashboard Confessional

The Surprise - Part Two @abigail_lauren

A video posted by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on



Umm we want to be best friends with Taylor Swift because it definitely has some pretty great perks -- LIKE GETTING A BIRTHDAY SERENADE BY DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL'S CHRIS CARRABBA! (Okay can you tell one of us at here at X17online was a Dashboard Confessional superfan back in college and this sounds like the most exciting thing that has ever happened in the history of birthdays?)

Over the weekend, Tay hosted a 25th birthday bash for her bestie Abigail and the "Shake It Off" pulled out all the stops.

At the bash, Swift said to the crowd during a toast, "Her favorite all-time band and still is Dashboard Confessional. I'm just asking a random question, do we have anyone here named Chris Carrabba?"

That's when the pint-sized emo god emerged from a sea of celebs to play his hit song, "Hands Down." And then the 19-year-old emo girl living inside of each and every one us rose from the dead, cried tears of joy and sadness and then returned to the grave until it's time for a Further Seems Forever reunion tour.

It appears as though Abigail wasn't the only DC superfan -- Paramore's Hayley Williams also got on stage for the serenade.

In addition to those notable names, Followill brothers from Kings of Leon and supermodel Lily Aldridge were also at the fun-filled bash.

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS - Bruce Jenner Goes For A Solo Motorcycle Ride On Easter Sunday

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 7:50am PDT       By X17 Staff


Now that he's free from Kris Jenner's overbearing rule, he can do what he wants when he wants!

Bruce Jenner spent Easter Sunday whipping around Malibu on his hog, and even though the California temperatures have been mighty hot, the reality star opted to wear a heavy jacket in order to cover his new breast implants. We bet he's waiting to unveil them during his upcoming Diane Sawyer tell-all interview!

The rest of the Kardashian clan attended church services, but it's pretty clear that Bruiser doesn't want anything to do with staged family outings anymore.

Check back for more pics of Bruce sporting HUGE new lip implants and a red manicure, coming at noon PT!

 

Mariah Carey And Nick Cannon Reunite To Celebrate Easter With The Twins

Posted on Mon Apr 6th, 2015 7:18am PDT       By X17 Staff


Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon reunited to celebrate Easter with twins Moroccan and Monroe, 3, on Sunday. After a dramatic split late last year, it seems the two are successfully co-parenting and Nick even looked cozy with Mariah, putting his hand on her back as the kids hunted for Easter eggs.

Mariah posted this snap on Instagram, with the caption: "Happy Easter!!! #ontheegghunt #NYiswild"

Nick has reportedly signed a deal to write a tell-all book about his marriage to the famous diva. It has been reported he demanded $30 million in the divorce settlement and was shot down by Mariah. Nick filed in December and even though there was a prenuptial agreement, apparently Nick's book deal doesn't violate any non-disclosure agreement, so he's set to tell all!

"Nick says he is going to tell the world about Mariah's drug use, her strange eating habits, psychosis, what she has said about other artists, her sexual proclivities and her parenting skills. It which will really be hurtful," an insider tells the DailyMail. "And Nick is also going to explain why he thinks he should have full custody of the twins. Mariah has admitted she never wanted children and Nick is going to tell the world why she felt that way."

Sounds like a good read!

 

The Kardashian Family Heads To Church On Easter Sunday

Posted on Sun Apr 5th, 2015 1:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


The Kardashians went to church on Easter Sunday, but there were a few key people missing!

Kim Kardashian, hubby Kanye West and their daughter North arrived together, and since Kim was there, we figured Rob wouldn't show. Kris Jenner brought along boy toy Corey Gamble (the couple walked in with Kendall and Khloe) while Kourtney rolled up with her two oldest kids -- but baby daddy Scott Disick was not with her. While we didn't see Kylie arrive with the rest of the family, we did snap the 17-year-old Instagram addict leaving church later with her mom and siblings -- and her 25-year-old boyfriend Tyga, who brought his son with him!

Despite the fact that Scott and Rob weren't there, Kris didn't seem worried at all. Maybe this is all part of the plot for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians? We could just see the boys staging a protest and an intervention taking place after church service. Ok, maybe not, but that would be way more interesting than hearing Kim blab about how much sex she's having with Kanye!
