R. Kelly's Daughter Calls Her Dad A "Monster" In Emotional Instagram Post

Posted on Fri Jan 11th, 2019 11:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


This poor girl.

R. Kelly's estranged daughter Joann Kelly is speaking out about the allegations surrounding her famous father, and she says she agrees with public opinion that he's a predator.

"Before I start I just want it to be known that I am speaking from the heart, nothing I say or do not say is to hurt ANY party reading this or affected by this. To the people that feel I should be speaking up/against everything that is going on right now. I just want you all to understand that devastated is an understatement for all that I feel currently. I do apologize if my silence to all that is happening comes off as careless," she wrote in an Instagram post.

"That is my last intention. I pray for all the families & women who have been affected by my father’s actions. Trust, I have been deeply affected by all of this. Anyone that knows me personally or has been following me throughout the years knows that I do not have a relationship with my father. Nor do I speak on him or on his behalf. I also am not fond of dealing with my personal issues or personal life through social media but, I feel things are starting to get out of hand," she continued.

My mother, siblings and I would never condone, support or be a part of ANYTHING negative he has done and or continues to do in his life. Going through all I have gone through in my life, I would never want anyone to feel the pain I have felt. Reminders of how terrible my father is, and how we should be speaking up against him, rude comments about my family, fabricating me, my siblings & our mothers ‘part’ etc. Does not help my family (Me, my sister, my brother, and my mother) in our healing process. Nor does it allow a safe space for other victims who are scared to speak up, speak up," she added.

She didn't hold back expressing her hatred for the R&B star, either.

"The same monster you all confronting me about is my father. I am well aware of who and what he is. I grew up in that house. I have to do & move in a manner that is best for me. I pray anyone who reads this understands I put nothing but good intent behind each word. I just want everyone to know that I do care and I love you all. This is a very difficult subject to speak on… again, I apologize if my words don’t come out right.. This past year for my family has been very difficult, all the love and support you all continue to show is why we keep going. You all fuel us. Family, friends, followers, fans, etc… I love you guys to pieces. Your love is appreciated & always will be," she concluded.

He has ruined so many lives!

 

Sarah Hyland Reveals She Was "Very Very Close" To Taking Her Own Life Amid Health Battle

Posted on Fri Jan 11th, 2019 10:05am PDT       By X17 Staff


We had no idea it got this bad!

Sarah Hyland made an appearance on Ellen, and got candid while discussing her battle with kidney dysplasia and how it almost drove her to suicide.

"At the time I was 26, after 26/27 years of just always being sick and being in chronic pain every single day and you don’t know when you’re going to have the next good day, it’s really, really hard. I would write letters in my head to loved ones of why I did it and my reasoning behind it, how it was nobody’s fault. I didn’t want to write it down on paper because I didn’t want anybody to find it. That’s how serious I was. I was very, very, very close," she told the talk show host.

“I finally said it out loud to someone … Just saying it out loud helped immensely because I kept it to myself for months and months at a time. I didn’t want anybody to know that I was that close, because if they knew they would try to persuade me. Every person with their anxiety or depression or if you have suicidal thoughts, every individual is different, so I wouldn’t just rely on everything that I say. I’m just sharing my story. But I think talking to someone and saying it out loud really, really makes it sound almost ridiculous and it puts it into perspective," she added.

The Modern Family star also opened up about her loving relationship with boyfriend Wells Adams, and explained how he first caught her eye.

"I had been watching the Bachelor franchise since I was a kid. It was just something my mom and I did together. So I watched his show and that's how we started talking. I would tweet about him because he referenced books. And I was like, 'Oh gosh, Bachelor contestants can read?!? This is amazing. He can read. And he has dimples! This is great," she joked.

We're glad she made it through to the other side!

 

Hailey And Justin Continue To Search For A New House Amid Reports They Want A "Very Small Wedding"

Posted on Fri Jan 11th, 2019 9:20am PDT       By X17 Staff


They're looking to put down roots.

We caught Hailey Baldwin house hunting with her realtor yesterday in LA, and it looks like the model and husband Justin Bieber are eager to find a place to call home. As if this wasn't a big enough task, they're also in the middle of planning their formal wedding ceremony, so to say they're checking a lot of things off their list would be an understatement.

"They are still in the middle of deciding whether or not they want a big or small wedding. They would love a small wedding, but they have so many people that they want there and they know once they start planning, it could become bigger," a source dished to Us Weekly.

"Right now, they are focusing on looking for a new house in L.A. They’re looking at houses in Brentwood, Bel Air and Beverly Hills. They’re renting now but want to buy something big enough for a family. They want kids — soon," the source added.

The Biebs has struggled with his emotions in recent months, but their relationship has been a grounding force in his life.

"Hailey is so happy and Justin is doing great. He’s obviously still trying to focus on his mental health and staying in a good space, and that’s their main priority right now. They’re both super family-oriented and are excited about the next chapter of their lives together. Hailey can’t wait to be a mom," the insider revealed.

We're starting to think this marriage is the real deal!

 

Report: Prince Harry Feels Responsible For Meghan Markle Being "Miserable" In Royal Spotlight

Posted on Fri Jan 11th, 2019 8:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


This is a tough situation to be in.

Prince Harry is reportedly distraught over his inability to protect Meghan Markle from negative headlines and public scrutiny, Us Weekly reports.

"Meghan made a huge sacrifice by moving across the pond, away from her mom and friends. Marrying into the royal family isn’t anywhere near as glamorous as it seems, so in a lot of ways Harry feels responsible for Meghan being so miserable," a source dished to the mag.

"[Harry] takes any attack on Meghan very personally. He’s wanted to publicly make a statement many times defending Meghan and addressing the false rumors, but was advised not to," the source added.

Good thing they have their baby to focus on!

The couple are allegedly getting details set for the birth of their first child, and it looks like they've chosen Frimley Park Hospital in Surrey, England, for Meghan’s delivery.

“It will be much less chaos and more of a private event than if she gives birth in London [at high-profile St. Mary’s Hospital] like Kate did,” an insider revealed.

"[They are} also looking into hiring the perfect nanny, someone trusted and trained at one of the best places in the U.K.," the snitch dished.

At least they have each other amid all this craziness!

 

Kim Reveals Kanye Asked Her To Be A Hot Girl In The Audience At His Concert Way Back in 2007

Posted on Thu Jan 10th, 2019 12:45pm PDT       By X17 Staff


He was after her long before they actually got together!

Kim Kardashian revealed that now-husband Kanye made some calls to get her into the audience for one of his performances way back in 2007, well before they started dating and tied the knot.

A Twitter fan commented on a throwback pic of Kimmy K, and that's when the reality star told the story behind the image.

"Fun Fact- in this pic I was on my way to meet Kanye for his Good Life performance for the MTV Awards. I didn’t really know him but his people called my people lol & I was a girl in the audience at the live performance in Vegas. I met his mom Donda this same night," she recalled.

As they say, the rest is history! The couple began their romance in 2012 after she ended her marriage to Kris Humphries, and made things official in 2014.

This isn't the first time she's let us in on how they became Kimye.

"When I first met [Kanye], we worked on a project together and there was definitely a spark, but we were in other relationships and we kept our distance. We stayed in touch here and there and then when he wasn't in relationships, you know, it's just our timing would always not really coincide," KKW said in 2015.

Nobody can say 'Ye isn't persistent!

 

Kendall And Kylie Pose Together For A Photoshoot Amid Rumors They "Can't Stand Each Other"

Posted on Thu Jan 10th, 2019 12:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff

hi sister

A post shared by Kylie (@kyliejenner) on


Are they playing nice for the camera, or are these rumors nothing but nonsense?

Kendall and Kylie posed together for a photoshoot for their clothing line, but reports claim the sisters have grown apart, and can now barely stand to be in the same room.

"Honestly, they can’t really stand each other and have nothing in common. Things really started to fall apart when Kendall began modeling and Kylie resented her sister’s beauty and launched her makeup line to prove she can do her own thing," a source dished to Radar.

"Now that Kylie has made a billion dollars off of it, the tables have turned. Things will never be the same again between them," the source added.

It's not just money that's causing the rift, though!

“Kylie loves to show Kendall how popular she is and what a great boyfriend and life she has. Kendall gets mad when Kylie tries to steal her friends from her and raids her closet of her designer clothes. When they were little, their parents had to buy two of everything – they were that jealous. If they weren’t sisters, they probably wouldn’t even be friends," the insider revealed.

We call BS on this!

 

Lady Gaga Apologizes For Collaborating With R. Kelly After Refusing To Participate In Explosive Docuseries

Posted on Thu Jan 10th, 2019 11:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


Oopsie!

Lady Gaga regrets ever working with R. Kelly now that his history of sexual assault and abuse has been laid bare in the new Lifetime docuseries Surviving R. Kelly, and so she issued an apology and explanation for her mistake.

The two collaborated on her 2013 hit “Do What U Want (With My Body)," even after he was on trial for child porn charges just a few years prior. She can't say she didn't know!

"I stand behind these women 1000%, believe them, know they are suffering and in pain, and feel strongly that their voices should be heard and taken seriously. What I am hearing about the allegations against R Kelly is absolutely horrifying and indefensible," she said on her Instagram stories.

Mother Monster's own history of sexual abuse clouded her decision-making.

"As a victim of sexual assault myself, I made both the song and video at a dark time in my life, my intention was to create something extremely defiant and provocative because I was angry and still hadn’t processed the trauma that had occurred in my own life. The song is called ‘Do What U Want (With My Body)’, I think it’s clear how explicitly twisted my thinking was at the time," she continued.

"If I could go back and have a talk with my younger self I’d tell her to go through the therapy I have since then, so that I could understand the confused post-traumatic state that I was in — or if therapy was not available to me or anyone in my situation — to seek help, and speak as openly and honestly as possible about what we’ve been through. I can’t go back, but I can go forward and continue to support women, men and people of all sexual identities, and of all races, who are victims of sexual assault," she added.

The songstress has pledged to wipe their hit tune off streaming services as a way to right her wrongs.

"I have demonstrated stance on this issue and others many times throughout my career. I share this not to make excuses for myself, but to explain. Til it happens to you, you don’t know how it feels. But I do know how I feel now. I intend to remove the song off of iTunes and other streaming platforms and will not be working with him again. I’m sorry, both for my poor judgement when I was young, and for not speaking out sooner. I love you," she concluded.

Let's not forget that R. Kelly is the real villain here!

 

Khloe Looks Skinny And Sexy As She Heads To Work In Her New Rolls Royce SUV

Posted on Thu Jan 10th, 2019 10:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


She looks like a whole new woman!

Khloe Kardashian dropped by the studio to film some scenes for Keeping Up with the Kardashians yesterday, and she arrived in her brand new Rolls Royce SUV. We didn't even know they made those!

The reality star looked super blonde and skinny, and with what incredible shape she's in, it would be the perfect time to add another baby to mix!

“Having True has changed Khloé’s life. Though you might think having a new baby amid all this drama with Tristan would make things even harder for her, it was actually the opposite. True gave her something incredible to focus her love and energy on, and it helped her and Tristan stay bonded no matter what," a source dished to People.

“[Khloe] would love another baby and to give True a sibling. She always wanted to be a mom and it wouldn’t be surprising if she got pregnant again," the source added.

It might be hard to find time for baby making, considering her man Tristan Thompson will be on the road with his team the Cleveland Cavaliers until June, but all it takes is one night of passion!
