We have to agree!
Kris Jenner didn't know what they were talking about when photographers asked how she felt about Russell Brand coming to her ex Bruce's defense amid transitioning rumors at LAX yesterday, but once they told her the British comedian was taking a stand against the former Olympian's bullies, she was full of praise!
"Aw, that was nice - super sweet," she exclaimed as she made her way through the terminal.
In case you missed it, Katy Perry's ex urged the media and fans alike to leave the 65-year-old alone on his Youtube show. "This is bullying. Stop. Stop. Bruce Jenner is a human being. If you want to learn more about transgender issues, look at GLAAD.org. Transphobia seems to be the most recent and encouraged form of prejudice, now that racism and homophobia are not tolerated. It's such a celebration of the worst aspects of human values. What this does is it sanctions people being judgmental and cruel toward transgender folks," he explained.
The momager must love that at least people are talking about her famous family!

We figured Leonardo DiCaprio's messy beard was for a film role, and now we know a little bit more about it!
The first stills of Leo in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's
The Revenant appeared on
Entertainment Weekly today, and he's been nominated (and shut out!) five times for a Best Actor Oscar, so could
this be his ticket to a golden statuette?
In case you didn't know,
The Revenant is a 1800s biopic about Hugh Glass, an American fur trapper who trekked 200 miles across Missouri after being mauled by a grizzly bear. Glass was on an expedition with several partners, but they left him for dead after the attack. We're not sure how things went down once Glass got back to camp, and frankly, we don't want to know -- we'd like to save that for the movie! Tom Hardy stars as one of Glass' pals, and the film will hit theaters next Christmas.
"He’s a brave, incredible actor. I’m so surprised about how good he is," Inarritu says of DiCaprio. "I think there’s a profound understanding of humanity that I can see through his eyes." We can't wait to get a peek at the first trailer for this!

What would Amal say?!
Jennifer Lopez appeared on
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night to promote her new film
The Boy Next Door, and the actress was quizzed about her past co-stars' smooching abilities, prompting her to reveal intimate details about her lip lock with
Out of Sight co-star George Clooney.
The late night host asked which leading man was the worst kisser, than pre-empted her: "Can I tell you who I think it is? I think it's Clooney," he quipped, to which Jenny from the Block responded, "He was okay."
Ouch!

You got served! LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian's not-so-hot VH1 reality show,
LeAnn & Eddie, has been cancelled -- and we have a feeling that LeAnn Rimes, Eddie Cibrian and Brandi Glanville are the only ones who care.
The series premiered in July of last year to paltry ratings. The show followed the pair, who first married in 2011 after leaving their spouses for each other, as they opened up their relationship and their family's life. Yeah we're practically asleep just reading about it.
We guess their viewership (which probably consists of LeAnn, Eddie and Brandi) will have to find some other D-list couple's story to follow. What will Brandi do now for Twitter fodder?!
The "Blue" singer is trying to stay positive, posting a photo of a chalkboard on Instagram yesterday with the phrase, "Built....from the ground up." Along with the pic, LeAnn captioned it, "And proud of it #stillbuilding #since5yearsold lol #letsdothis #strength #persistent #dreambig."
The 32-year-old then later added to the post, "(in no relation to anything other than promoting kicking butt for yourself AND I saw it in an ice cream store last night 😊)"
Umm whatever you say, LeAnn ...

Kris Jenner totally put him up to this!
Bruce Jenner is ready to address his changing appearance and the rumors that he's transitioning into a woman, and the former Olympian will do it on the upcoming season of
Keeping Up with the Kardashians,
Us Weekly reports.
The reality star has been making headlines for months due to his increasingly feminine looks and behavior, and
In Touch even put him on their cover and superimposed his face onto
Dynasty star Stefanie Beacham's body to imply he was undergoing a sex change. "[Bruce] was upset by
InTouch’s story," a source told the mag.
His famous family has been begging him to speak out, and he's decided he will finally break his silence. "Bruce and Kris address his changing appearance in a scene they shot together. It will be a plot line," another source told
Us.
This will no doubt be
KUWTK's highest rated episode!

Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner left Jack and Jill's Too in Beverly Hills after filming their reality show there on Tuesday evening, and we'd love to know what sorts of things these two were talking about! Could they have been discussing dad Bruce Jenner's startling transformation? Or perhaps they were chatting about 17-year-old Kylie's ginormous lips!
Speaking of Kylie, apparently the teen selfie queen has quit school! Well, she "quit" school some time ago, but now she's decided that she's done with home schooling. "She told her mom it was getting 'in the way' of her career, and that she wanted to focus her energies on building her personal brand and making money," a source dishes to
Life & Style. Mom Kris Jenner "gave in" and the insider tells the mag, "She feels the girls are smart and savvy and they don’t need a piece of paper to show that."
Kris proudly clutched a copy of Kylie's new
Cosmo cover when we snapped her at Los Angeles International Airport, so clearly she supports this decision!

Jennifer Aniston taped an appearance with
Good Morning America on Tuesday afternoon, and though she scooted in and out of the studio rather quickly, she still flashed our photographers a quick smile before hopping in her car. Not to mention another peek at that gorgeous engagement ring from fiance Justin Theroux!
Jen may have been totally snubbed when the Oscar nominations were announced last week, but she's not letting that get her down -- or slow her down from making appearances to promote
Cake. During her chat with Robin Roberts, she revealed that the experience was worth so much more than getting nominated for a bunch of awards.
"I fell in love with [my character] when I read the script," she said. "It was one of those -- it's kind of that dream role for any arc because there's just so much to explore, and [a] beautiful human experience to sort of journey with ... to come out at the end with hope." Jen added, "It's incredible because the amount of people saying no one has ever told a story about chronic pain and, you know, whether your pain came from a tragedy -- I've had people with shrapnel they're living with and in agony every day they wake up."
That's some powerful stuff! Click the video below to watch the rest of her interview!

Ok, so we've had the Bieber fever for quite some time now, and as much as we love his pop songs, THIS took our fan girl status to a whole new level!
On Tuesday night Justin Bieber stopped by State Social house, and rather than causing chaos, the 20-year-old pop superstar took the stage and gave an amazing acoustic performance of "I'll Be" and "Home to Mama."
According to sources at the West Hollywood hotspot, Bieber just happened to grab a guitar and sing a few songs -- this was not planned. Um, maybe he should plan more of these, because a) they'd sell out in a heartbeat and b) we love this more mellow sound! Maybe that's what he's working on with super producer Rick Rubin?
Check out the video above and tell us what you think about his stellar set!
