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!

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!

There's no trouble in paradise, though!

We caught Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin grabbing lunch in West Hollywood yesterday before heading to church later that night, just as reports surfaced that they've chosen to push back their wedding ceremony.

"They have a wedding planner and were hoping to make a January date work. They can't wait to celebrate with family and friends and have a big party. But, January is here and they are still working out details and planning," a source dished to E! News.

"[They] aren't going to rush it and want to make sure that its everything they want it to be. They've tossed around different ideas for where to do it and they are still going back and forth. They've met with their pastor numerous times to discuss the religious ceremony and figure out exactly what they want," the source added.

So when can we expect the nuptials to take place?

"It's all in the works, but still being discussed. There is some stuff behind the scenes that's being figured out. The important thing is that they are very happy with being married and being together," the insider revealed.

For a second there Selena Gomez must have felt a glimmer of hope!

 

Divorce Drama: Amazon Boss Billionaire Jeff Bezos Cheated With BFF's Wife!

Posted on Thu Jan 10th, 2019 9:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


And the truth comes out...

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife Mackensie announced they were separating after 25 years of marriage yesterday, and it took but hours before reports revealed that the billionaire was secretly having a year-long affair with former TV host Lauren Sanchez!

Making matters worse? Bezos and his wife were friends with Sanchez and her agent husband Patrick Whitesell for years before this romance began!

Now, all the dirt is being dished...

The National Enquirer released steamy text messages exchanged between Bezos and Sanchez, and it sounds like he's already head over heels.

"I love you, alive girl. I will show you with my body, and my lips and my eyes, very soon," one of them read. Barf! “I want to smell you, I want to breathe you in. I want to hold you tight.… I want to kiss your lips…. I love you. I am in love with you," he added in another. He's a true nerd because this is the weakest sexting game we've ever seen!

He must really dig the busty brunette, because he is going to have to forfeit half his $137 billion fortune in his divorce! He married Mackensie before he was rich, and so they didn't have a prenup. Their primary residence is in the state of Washington, which is a community property state, so everything gets split down the middle. Ouch!

Mo money, mo problems!

 

Meghan Markle Continues Work Into Her Third Trimester As Her Patronages Are Announced

Nobody can say she isn't a hard worker!

Meghan Markle made an appearance at women's charity SmartWorks today, just as Kensington Palace announced her new royal patronages, and she looked absolutely stunning in a black Hatch maternity dress, camel Oscar de la Renta coat, and Giovanni Rossi pumps.

The Duchess of Sussex will now be the patron of the National Theatre and Association of Commonwealth Universities, as well as Mayhew, an animal charity.

"The Duchess of Sussex will become Patron of four organisations that reflect the causes and issues with which she has long been associated including the arts, access to education, support for women and animal welfare. Her Majesty The Queen has passed on two patronages to The Duchess of Sussex –The National Theatre and The Association of Commonwealth Universities. The Queen has held the roles for 45 and 33 years respectively. Her Royal Highness will also take on Patronage of two additional charities as part of her official working portfolio – Smart Works and Mayhew," the Palace announced on social media.

In other news, Prince Harry is reportedly distraught over his inability to protect his wife from negative headlines and public scrutiny.

"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 Us Weekly.

"[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.

In our opinion, she's handling all of this like such a pro!

 

EXCLUSIVE - Justin Bieber And Hailey Baldwin Are House Hunting ... Preparing To Put Down Roots And Start A Family!

Posted on Wed Jan 9th, 2019 1:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Shacking up, settling down and ... planting seeds??? Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin are house hunting for their first marital home and we've got the EXCLUSIVE pix and info!

X17online can report exclusively that Mr. and Mrs. Bieber checked out an ENORMOUS house in Encino, on Tuesday, on the market for a cool $13 million! It's a dream home, for sure -- perfect for back yard barbecues and ... raising a family!

The 12,500-square-foot mega-manstion features ten bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and is complete with a movie theater, pool house, basketball court and even TWO garages for all their sweet whips.

Justin and Hailey spent about 45 minutes touring the estate and were all smiles when they left. And just to ask -- hey, you never know, maybe Jailey were in the mood to break some big news! -- we asked Baldwin if she has a baby on board. Watch!


That's not the only home the couple's considering, though it's clearly the nicest (and most expensive!). Hailey checked out a much smaller, must more modest home last Friday, near Kim and Kanye's old pad in Bel Air. That home is still under construction and will likely finish at closer to 6,000 square feet and be priced around $5 million. A far cry from the $13 million estate they looked at yesterday! We say, bigger is better!

 

EXCLUSIVE - Jennifer Garner Builds Downsized Dream Home After Selling House With Ben Affleck For $32M

Posted on Wed Jan 9th, 2019 12:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Jennifer Garner is moving on! Literally, moving ...

The actress recently sold her Pacific Palisades home she shared with ex Ben Affleck to Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo for $32M because, SURPRISE!, she building her OWN dream home in nearby Brentwood.

X17online can report EXCLUSIVELY that Jen is just months away from moving into her own, significantly smaller custom estate about a quarter of a mile down the street from where she and the kids live now.

The mother-of-three will be close the westside hotspot Brentwood Country Mart and all of Jen's favorite exercise studios. She's count LeBron James and other celebs as neighbors in this picturesque area of LA's most exclusive zip code.

Garner hired architect-to-the-stars Ken Ungar who designed her pal Reese Witherspoon's Palisades mansion. The move will be a downsize for Jen -- going from a whopping 16,000 square feet on 3.1 acres to a 1/3rd of an acre and what appears to be about 8500 square feet of living space in her new abode.

Jen snatched up the lot last July for $6.5 million and broke ground on her new place shortly thereafter. The new home, a traditional Cape Cod, will be home to her three kids Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel -- convenient to the younger kids' school just down the street -- and close to Violet's bus stop for her all-girls private middle-school/high-school across town.

Jen and the kids are expected to move into their new estate over the summer. We imagine boyfriend John Miller will be spending some time there, too!

 

Amber Rose Leaves Nothing To The Imagination With This Nude Instagram

Posted on Wed Jan 9th, 2019 11:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


She's giving Kim K a run for her money!

Amber Rose has never been shy about flaunting her sexuality, and she proved that again yesterday, but posting this totally nude Instagram photo, complete with a peek of her nipple piercings!

The SlutWalk founder gets a lot of criticism for showing off her unbelievable body, but she says that's all part of her plan to empower women to take back their rights and own their bodies.

"There’s feminists that really go in on me. Like, 'How are you a feminist and you post a picture of your bush? That’s not feminism.' That’s exactly what feminism is. Feminism is equality. Feminism is literally doing whatever the hell you want and not living up to society norms and what people want you to do. Like if you look at my bio on my Instagram and on my Twitter, it says “F*ck your opinion, I’ll do whatever I want,” and that’s exactly how I feel. I’m a compassionate person, I don’t hurt people, I don’t use people, but it’s my body and my choice and I can take whatever picture I want. And also I’m not really a conservative girl. I’ve never been conservative," she recently told HuffPost.

The former stripper has been dating Def Jam music exec Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards for the last few months, but she's racked up quite the list of exes in the past year, and now we can see why! She dated NBA star Monte Morris after her breakup with rapper 21 Savage, but her new guy seems like the best fit for her!

The blonde bald beauty underwent breast reduction surgery in December 2017, but she made sure to keep her ample curves!
