Looks like this scandal's going DEEPER and investigators are now possibly implicating Lori Loughlin's 19-year-old daughter Bella Giannulli in the college admissions scandal!
Giannulli was served a letter from federal prosecutors in Massachusetts earlier this month in the Operation Varsity Blues investigation informing the then-USC student she was the subject of the investigation and that criminal charges could be brought against her.
After her parents pleaded not guilty earlier this month, after rejecting a plea deal, Isabella deleted her Instagram account (so you KNOW it's serious!).
So far, no students have been charged in the investigation but court docs prove some kids knew what their parents were doing on their behalf by funneling money through their college admissions counselor's fake charity fund to weasel their way into school.
Giannulli isn't the only student related to the scandal to receive one of these letters, however her sister Olivia Jade, 20, did not. Apparently all five students who are being investigated are children of parents who rejected plea bargains.
Watch the above video for ever MORE dirt on this scandal!

We spotted Orlando Bloom and a mystery woman out to dinner Wednesday night at West LA hotspot Catch and after they spent an hour inside dining, Orly said goodbye with a KISS before speeding off on his motorcycle. And no, the woman is clearly not his fiancee Katy Perry. What the hell?!

This is some funny sh*t! We LOVE Mickey Rourke's sense of humor and we love to make fun of his eclectic style -- and somehow we have a feeling he doesn't care that we mock him!
Check out the 9 1/2 Weeks star's hairline -- what's happening there?! And then check out what he's holding in his hand after he met with his hairdresser Giuseppe Franco ... and THEN, check out his beautiful French manicure on those hands! HIGH-larious!

Beyonce and Jay Z are clearly the reigning queen and king of raking in the big bucks! In a move of marketing genius, Beyonce repurposed her life-changing 2018 Coachella performance into a full-length album and released it the same day her Netflix documentary by the same name -- "Homecoming" -- dropped.
Netflix is SO excited about their streaming film release, they've even re-branded their Twitter page in honor of Bey!
Poll
Will you watch Beyonce's Netflix doc "Homecoming?"
Hell yeah! Anything and EVERYTHING Beyonce!
Nah - if you saw social media video of Bey at Coachella last year, you've seen it all!

Here it comes, y'all! Hailey Baldwin has filed for a trademark on "Bieber Beauty" and we can feel the Sephora/Ulta battle brewing!
Mrs. Bieber filed with the intent to launch “beauty and cosmetic products." She has also already filed to register “Hailey Bieber" in October 2018 with the intent to launch a clothing line, according to the US Trademark Office.
Pretty smart, given that Kylie Jenner and her LipKits have made her the youngest billionaire EVER at 21. Clearly there's HUGE value in the Bieber name, so Hailey may as well make a few bucks off it!

Fans are worried after Britney Spears' mom Lynne posted a cryptic message to Instagram that reads, "When God’s warriors go down on their knees, the battle is not over; it has just begun." She captioned it "This is faith!"
Is she referring to Brit's recent hospitalization in a mental facility where she's seeking treatment following a difficult time with her father Jamie's health? Jamie Spears has been battling a serious colon issue and stress and worry over his condition is what seems to have triggered Britney's mental health issues.
Of course Brit was in a downward spiral in 2007 and was subsequently hospitalized in 2008 at which time a judge put her under a conservatorship led by the singer's attorney and her father. Andrew Wallet, the lawyer assigned to the care and keeping of Britney's estate and business matters for the past ten years, recently quit as co-conservator so Jamie is now the sole person in charge -- and at a time when he is battling very serious health issues.
Britney postponed her Las Vegas residency at the MGM Grand in January, following the family's announcement about her father's poor health.
Of course Lynne's post could also be referring to her ex-husband's battle ... but it's a woman in the photo, kneeling and praying -- so is the "battle" she mentions, referring to daughter Britney's mental health battle? We're praying for you, Brit!

Larsa Pippen doesn't want to follow in Jordyn Woods' footsteps so she's getting out ahead of the rumors she was flirting with BFF Kim Kardashian's ex-husband Kris Humphries at Coachella last weekend!
Pippen, 44, commented on an Instagram post of a headline that claimed she was chatting up the basketballer out in the desert by writing: "The convo lasted all of 3 minutes. He told me he’s known Scottie since he was 14 and that he loves him and I said so do I." Larsa is Scottie Pippen's estranged wife, of course -- she filed for divorce in November after reconciling with the former NBA'er the previous year following HIS divorce filing in October 2016.
As we all remember, Kim was famously married to Kris for just 72 days and later filed for divorce because that's when Kanye "had fell in love with Kiiiiim ... around the same time she had fell in love with hiiiiim."
So what's next? Will Larsa make an appearance on Red Table Talk? Will she be publicly shamed and excommunicated by the Kar-Jenner clan? We hope she made an early-morning call to Kim today to get this cleared up!

That moment you realize you've taken a casual Coachella hookup and made it into something way bigger ...
Jaden Smith is back in LA -- out from under the neon lights and smoky, dusty haze of Coachella -- with a mystery lady he reportedly hooked up with at various parties around the desert music festival. We spotted the new couple at the Calabasas Commons, on Monday, is a serious makeout sesh on a bench outside. The curly-haired brunette leaned in for the kill and Smith willingly obliged as the pair went out for lunch and kombucha in the early afternoon.
All of this, as Smith has reportedly broken up with Fam actress Odessa Adlon. Those two had been dating for almost exactly a year. And then there's Jaden's supposed ex Tyler the Creator whom the young singer SWEARS he was dating. He told fans at Ty's Camp Flog Gnaw concert: "I just want to say Tyler, the Creator is the best friend in the world and I love him so f–king much. I want to tell you guys something: Tyler doesn’t want to say, but Tyler is my motherf–king boyfriend, and he’s been my motherf–king boyfriend my whole f–king life. Tyler, the Creator is my f–king boyfriend. It’s true!†He even confirmed the relationship to X17 in THIS video.
So who's this new love interest? Tell us in the comments if you know her!
