Madonna and her youngest son David jetted out of New York City's JFK International Airport on Saturday, and we're not sure where they're headed, but it looks like he had his mom all to himself! It's not clear where sister Mercy was, but David's older siblings Rocco and Lourdes were probably off doing their own thing -- after all, Lola is in college now! We can't believe how fast all of Madge's kids are growing up...
While the 56-year-old pop star is still widely respected (even after that embarrassing fall at the BRIT Awards), apparently she feels like she's being discriminated against due to her age. Madonna has accused BBC Radio 1 of "ageism" after a programmer at the station announced that they were going to pass on playing "Living for Love" so that they might appeal to a younger audience. Madonna called the decision "discriminatory and unfair" and chatted with The Sun about the drama.
"I was like, 'Wait a second. Shouldn't it have to do with whether you wrote a good, catchy pop song?'" she said. "My manager said to me, 'If you're not in your twenties, it's hard. You might get your record played in your thirties. There's a handful of people who do - Pharrell got lucky. But if you're in your fifties, you can forget it'," Madonna said. "I didn't know it was anything to do with my age. I just do my work. We've made so many advances in other areas - civil rights, gay rights - but ageism is still an area that's taboo and not talked about and dealt with."
Leave it to Madonna to talk about it -- and deal with it!

After getting a peek at Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson's semi-pornographic Instagram posts on Valentine's Day, it became clear that their sex life is sizzling, but it's also nice to see them getting all dolled up and going on a romantic date! Jessica's body looked amazing in the Fifty Shades of Grey-themed snapshots, but the ass grabbing and spread legs were a little too much for us. I mean, this isn't Kimye we're talking about here!
On Friday afternoon the couple went to lunch in New York City, and after Jess had a meeting and and outfit change, they headed to dinner. Jess has been busting her booty to shed the last of her pregnancy weight, and she's definitely reached her goal -- and then some! Her thigh boots and eye makeup are giving us some major Pamela Anderson vibes, and we honestly can't remember the last time we saw the mother of two looking this sexy. Good for her!

Jennifer Lopez went to a business meeting in Burbank on Friday, and the 45-year-old superstar looked amazing in a short printed dress and heels. Even if she was 30 we'd think she had an incredible body ... it seems like she's only getting better with age!
We're not sure what the meeting was about, but it was recently reported that J. Lo is in talks to appear on an episode of Empire next season. The singer/actress had a meeting with executive producer/star Terrence Howard, and according to The New York Post, creator Lee Daniels "would love to have Jennifer Lopez on the second season."
J. Lo is currently developing a new series for NBC called California and she's still a judge on American Idol, so we're not sure when she'd have time for that -- but it would be amazing!

We love the fact that Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet are friendly exes! And we know she's currently married to super hunky star Jason Momoa, but we can't help but notice how good she looks with her former husband!
Lenny and Lisa split in 1993 after six years of marriage, but seeing as they have a daughter together (you know, the totally gorgeous and hip Zoe Kravitz?), they've had plenty of reasons to keep things amicable over the years. On Friday the duo went to lunch in West Hollywood, and it's funny, because in her recent feature in Ocean Drive magazine, 26-year-old Zoe chats all about family life and how tight her parents are.
"They have so much love for each other," she said of Lenny, Lisa and Jason. "It makes things so easy that my parents are still very close. My dad and my step-dad get along really well, and my dad loves and is close with my [step]brother and sister. It's really beautiful ... As long as everyone can be in the same room together, and have love for each other, it's totally healthy. Mom and dad remain tight and loving, and [I] spent many years with each staying in Los Angeles until age 11 and then relocating with [Lenny] to Miami and New York."

The Biebs is legal!
On Friday night the 21-year-old pop superstar partied at The Nice Guy in Hollywood and literally we got weak in the knees after getting a glimpse at his picture-perfect smile! Before the Biebs was able to hop in his chauffeured SUV, he was mobbed by a few overzealous fans trying to snap selfies. Can't say we blame them!
In other news, we already saw Justin's smokin' hot Men's Health spread, but what we didn't see was how mean the accompanying article was! Apparently the writer is NOT a Belieber, as he took every possible opportunity to slam the star. "It's not that you don't like Justin Bieber. You actually find him offensive," Oliver Broudy writes. "Why? Because his success primarily depends on skillful producers and shrieking tweens? Because he managed to steal the attention of half the planet's girls by basically becoming one of them?"
Um, ouch! But we're thinking Biebs is having the last laugh -- and maybe he'll use the same line on Broudy that he did on Selena Gomez back in the day? You know, "Can't hear you over my cash, babe!"

Kim Kardashian has busted out of her clothes before (with her curves, it's inevitable!) but yesterday even she seemed surprised about her latest wardrobe malfunction. The sexy reality TV starlet was about to hop into her Mercedes SUV when she noticed a problem with her outfit, at which point she had one of her staffers stuff her back into her corset top.
A few minutes later Kim and Kanye cruised down to Taco Bell to grab a bag of grub from the drive-thru, and we can't help but wonder if this might be the start of pregnancy cravings. On Friday morning X17 photographers caught Kim leaving a fertility clinic, and Kim usually eats pretty healthy, so Taco Bell is a pretty interesting choice. Plus, both she and Kanye have been blabbing about how much sex they're having desperate they are to give daughter Nori a sibling, so we wouldn't be surprised!

We're sure they were just supporting their pal, but you can't help but wonder who came just to network!
After splitting from his first wife last year, Relativity Media CEO Ryan Kavanaugh and new lady love, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model girlfriend Jessica Roffey, tied the knot in Malibu over the weekend. The famous faces in attendance included Katie Holmes, Pierce Brosnan, Steven Tyler, Tom Arnold, Edward Norton, Ryan Seacrest, Shannen Doherty, Josh Hartnett and fellow producer Jerry Bruckheimer, among others.
The event was held at Nikita restaurant in Malibu, but we have a feeling there was an after-party at Kavanaugh's Malibu pad. The billionaire producer owns a number of properties in Southern California, one of which sits on an acre of land in the 'Bu and seems like the perfect spot to have a wedding bash. Sounds like a good time to us!

Kanye West causes a commotion wherever he goes! After being his trip to France for Paris Fashion Week, the outspoken rapper stirred up quite the frenzy when he landed in Los Angeles on Friday afternoon.
The 37-year-old rocked a black hoodie, black pants and brown boots for his international flight. He's gotta be tired after his non-stop fashion parade through the City of Lights.
Earlier this month, the "Bound 2" rapper did a guest lecture at Oxford University and boasted that he had the ability to "call Obama out of the blue," and the president "calls the home phone, by the way," according to New York magazine.
But last night, President Obama called out Kanye during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. "Look, I love his music. He's incredibly creative," Obama said. "I don't think I've got his home number."
BUT, Kanye claims Obama claims POTUS dialed his digits before, but told us, "Don't try to pit us against each other. I love Obama."
We have to say -- we are surprised Yeezy isn't hiding out now that Anonymous has threatened him. Earlier this week, the "hacktivist" group Anonymous uploaded a seven-and-a-half minute in which a man in a Guy Fawkes mask claims that Kanye is an annoying, classless spoiled little brat, who is merely a "new slave" being used by the entertainment industry.
