Oh HELLLLL no! Were Jordyn Woods and Tristan Thompson really hooking up for MORE THAN A MONTH before this revelation broke just days ago?!
At first we thought it was a single hookup this past weekend at a party Tristan hosted at his house ... now a new report says they'd been seeing each other for more than four weeks! What the hell?!
Hollywood Unlocked, the web site that broke the cheating story, is now reporting new details which make this whole thing just THAT MUCH WORSE.
Apparently sources close to Khloe tell the site Jordyn contacted her the morning the initial story broke and told Khlo she stayed over at Tristan's house to make sure he didn't cheat. When Khloe realized it was Jordyn who was the b*tch in her man's bed, she confronted Kylie's BFF and all hell broke loose.
Kylie kicked Jordyn out of her house; Tristan has now deleted his comment "Fake News," which he'd posted on a report of the original cheating story, and Jordyn was spotted in an LA-area restaurant crying over the whole ordeal (which she caused).
Meanwhile Khloe's posting her usual quote memes on her Instagram story ...
And the social media backlash for the dirty couple is that Kim has unfollowed both Jordyn and Tristan while Kylie and Khloe are still following both.
But it gets dirtier still ... another new report claims Tristan would stay at his OTHER baby mama Jordan Craig's house whenever Khloe would kick him out -- which was a frequent occurrence. Us Weekly reports the baller would go over to Craig's house when he and Khloe were fighting and they also report he's a very involved dad to the former couple's son Prince ... well no wonder! He's always sleeping over with his ex!

All in the family! The Kardashians love their sweats -- in fact, Kanye's made millions off the cotton uniforms and Kourtney, son Mason and Kanye himself all showed love for the dressed-down look yesterday as they prepared for a rainy afternoon in classic casual sweatsuits.
Mason showed his love for Travis Scott with his Astroworld hoodie while Kanye loves his sweats so much, he wore them two days in a row!
Amid all this family crisis with the news that Tristan Thompson hooked up with Kylie Jenner's BFF Jordyn Woods, the fam clearly feels like staying cozy and hibernating as much as possible. We asked Kourt how sis Khloe's doing with all this SCANDAL swirling ...

Empire actor Jussie Smollett turned himself in to Chicago police early Thursday to face accusations he orchestrated the hate crime attack that he reported on January 29.
Smollett claimed two men yelled homophobic and racist epithets at him, beat him, tied a noose around his neck, and poured a chemical substance on him that evening. But now police say the actor has admitted to staging the supposed crime to further his career.
"He took advantage of the pain and anger of racism to promote his career," Supt. Eddie Johnson of the Chicago Police Department told reports at a press conference earlier today. "This publicity stunt was a scar that Chicago didn’t earn and certainly didn’t deserve."
Prior to this stunt, Jussie had mailed a letter to himself "that relied on racial, homophobic and political language," and lack of attention to that led Smollett to orchestrate this supposed hate crime “because he was dissatisfied with his salary.â€
News that Smollett had not fully cooperated with police started theories that something was fishy with the actor's story. Numerous security videos helped discount Smollett's story, in addition to questioning the two suspects who divulged to police that Jussie had paid them to fake the attack.
Smollett was charged with a felony crime of disorderly conduct for falsifying a police report yesterday and today he turned himself in and was booked. Chicago PD Tweeted: "Chicago Police Detectives take #Empire actor #JussieSmollett into custody to face Class 4 Felony charge (punishable for up to 3yrs in prison) for Disorderly Conduct in Falsifying Police report."
Smollett could end up paying for the three-week long investigation that resulted in police realizing his guilt. Reports say the tab could run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. See the full press conference here ...

Bow down! Even the Queen B defers to Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle, singing the praises of the pregnant royal in a new blog post.
Beyonce writes: "Today we're pleased to honor Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex. Meghan's background as a film and tv actress has allowed her to use her platform for good. Meghan's charitable work in communities of color began years before becoming the Duchess of Sussex. As a global ambassador for World Vision, she traveled to Rwanda to see how access to clean, safe water impacts children, an issue that is near and dear to our hearts. She also visited and supported the Myna Mahila Foundation in Mumbai, an organization that helps solve the menstruation challenges many women and girls in the community face."
She goes on to honor Prince Harry for marrying for love and for bringing a Black woman into the Royal Family: "She became the Duchess of Sussex following her marriage to Prince Harry of the British royal family in May 2018, becoming one of the few Black women to join a royal family. Meghan brought many Black traditions to her Royal Wedding including a Chicago-based Black pastor, an amazing gospel choir, and a young Black cellist. At the wedding her culture was front and center, and she and Prince Harry have continued to push the race relations dialogue forward both near and far."
The last line of Bey's blog post is perhaps the most creative, as she calls the Duchess a "Melanated Mona:" In honor of Black History Month, we bow down to one of our Melanated Monas. Congrats on your pregnancy! We wish you so much joy."
Bey and hubby Jay Z pose in front of a royal portrait of Meghan in this recent Instagram of Beyonce's. Clearly they're as in LOVE with Meghan as the rest of the world!

Kylie Jenner is Team Khloe in the family's latest scandal, as news of her BFF Jordyn Woods hooking up with Khlo's baby daddy Tristan Thompson last weekend seems to have broken the ladies' longtime bond.
Woods has lived with Kylie for years, as the 21-year-olds were not only best friends but business partners and Jordyn functioned as a kind of personal assistant to Khloe as well. Well that's all over now! Us Weekly reports Jordyn has packed up and moved out of the makeup mogul's mansion.
Eyewitnesses say Tristan and Jordyn were "all over each other" as a party at the baller's house over the weekend after hanging out at SHOREbar in Santa Monica. But even though Jordyn -- who was a friend to ALL the Kardashians and fully integrated into the clan -- seems to have done the ultimate betrayal, Kylie's not sure how to proceed: "At this point, the Kardashians aren’t 100 percent sure if Jordyn is going to be cut out of Kylie’s life. But they’re all looking at it as if she better be," a source tells Us. "It will be very hard for Kylie to lose Jordyn because she’s her best friend. She doesn’t have a lot of friends, and honestly, can’t because of her lifestyle, so she has latched onto Jordyn."
The Kardashians ARE known for their incredible ability to forgive and forget -- they did it with Lamar Odom; they've done it with Scott Disick, with Blac Chyna, etc., etc. So will this recent scandal break apart Kylie's most important friendship or will Khloe allow her half-sister to forgive?

Poor Khloe!
A scorned woman does NOT want to go to the grand opening of a clothing boutique just days after she learns her baby daddy's been hooking up with her sister's best friend but Khloe's a professional, y'all! She sucked it up and made good on her paid appearance at the ribbon cutting but didn't bother to even TRY to crack a smile.
Khlo and her family now seem to face a big question -- whether or not to cut Jordyn out of their lives. She's been living with Kylie for years; they're in business together now after Ky brought Woods into the makeup fold. So now what?!

Wow -- this is getting weird. Empire actor Jussie Smollett is now a suspect in his own race crime. The Cook County State Attorney's office in Chicago, Illinois has filed a felony disorderly conduct charge against Smollett for falsifying a police report. A bail hearing is set for Thursday at 1:30pm CT.
The actor has been under investigation since Chicago police questioned and released two suspects in the case -- two brothers, Olabinjo Abimbola Osundairo, who appear to have been hired and paid by Smollett to fake a racial, homophobic attack on him.
Jussie reported the crime January 29 -- claiming two perpetrators yelled homophobic and racial slurs at him, all while espousing President Donald Trump. He reported the men poured a unknown chemical substance on him and tied a noose around his neck after beating him.
Security camera video shows the two men buying supplies for the supposed crime at a hardware store the day before -- on January 28, the brothers purchased a rope, face masks, sunglasses and other items.
Smollett maintains his innocence, through his attorneys, but he has not given police a follow-up interview since his initial questioning.

It's all about Ariana! Ms. Grande has broken the Beatles' record of being the only band to ever hold the top three positions on the Billboard Hot 100 and Arianators are LIVING for this news!
Ariana spoke to James Corden last night on the Late Show about this amazing career milestone and about being lonely and focusing on work since calling off her engagement to former fiance Pete Davidson.
For the time being, Ari's been in a relationship with "7 Rings," "Thank U, Next," and "Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored" -- her three singles at the top of the chart this week. Other than that, her love life's been a little dry, she admits.
And she says of her record-breaking record, "I think it's so funny. I thought it was hilarious. When I woke up, I thought it was like an edit, like that my fans made, 'cause you know, they're like insane people that I love. But I thought it was a joke ... I was like: "I'm so sorry, this is so weird and crazy." I'll take a break after this. I'll go away for a little, I promise."
We DEFINITELY don't want her to go away! But Ari said she's "tired of her voice coming out." JK -- she also told Corden she was going to celebrate the news by hitting the studio -- so we won't be missing her voice any time soon, thank god!
After the interview, Grande surprised "World's Best" singers the TNT Boys -- a Filipino child singing group that's become a hit on the talent competition show that Corden hosts and it was SO cute! Roll tape! ...
