Gretchen Rossi and Alexis Bellino have reportedly been asked not to return for the ninth season of
The Real Housewives of Orange County.
Rossi joined the hit Bravo series in season four and Bellino in season five, and though they were friends initially, they started fighting in season seven. Despite trying to patch things up last season, the ladies were at each others' throats again earlier this spring in a heated Twitter battle.
"Alexis and Gretchen were fired," a source tells
Us Weekly. "They just had run their course. Gretchen has been on the show a long time, and it was the same old story." Ouch!
Remaining cast members include Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow, and Lydia McLaughlin. Wonder who will replace Gretchen and Alexis?

We gotta say it -- Khloe Kardashian has never looked better! Her marriage to Lamar Odom may be falling apart but outwardly the youngest Kardashian sister is looking on top of her game. We always say looking good is the best revenge and 29-year-old reality star is proving it! We entitle this ensemble: A La Revenge!
Khloe, who just dropped the last name of Odom from her Instagram, was quite the vamp when she was photographed entering her West Hollywood clothing store, Dash, on Wednesday. Slicking back her hair, Khloe rocked the catwalk (oops we mean sidewalk) in leather jeans, a satin bomber jacket and Louboutin pointed-toe pumps. And we love the style of unzipping the jacket in a coy-yet-sultry way.
Khloe was out and about with her sister Kourtney and her daughter Penelope to film scenes for their E! reality show. While Khloe may have looked in fine form, Kourt missed the mark in a strange, old-lady matching ensemble. Even her adorable daughter Penelope is outfitted in a strange headband. What is going on with this mother/daughter duo today! While we love that the mom of two knows how to take style risks, this pick is guaranteed to make headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Hey Kourtney, grandma called and she wants her outfit back. Actually we're kidding, no one's grandmother would be caught dead in that thing. But at least one of the Kardashian sisters is lookin' good!

Sobriety looks good on Lilo!
Lindsay Lohan ventured out in N.Y.C. today, reportedly to film her alleged reality show, and the rehabbed redhead was dressed to the nines in leather and jean leggings and a striped sweater. We love how she matched her orange Birkin bag with her tresses!
It's been an eventful couple of weeks for the
Liz & Dick star.
First, her mom Dina was
arrested for DUI, then it was reported Miss Linds was dating former football player Matt Nordgren, and this morning news broke the new romance was already
over!
None of the drama can stop
The Canyons star from rubbing elbows with her famous pals, though!
Last night, Samantha Ronson's former lady love attended the Madonna and Steven Klein SecretProjectEvolution party, and it's nice to see her still being social despite the fact she's sober now!

Spread Pictures
Candice Swanepoel boarded a yacht on Tuesday in St. Tropez, and while she was technically doing a photo shoot, it looked more to us like she was relaxing and prancing around in a bikini.
The next day Candace jetted off to Africa, and she tweeted a pic from the plane. "All set with my entertainment. @beatsbydre #michaelkors #greenpassports are the #best passports. Next stop #southafrica for an upcoming SA campaign #excited."
Lucky girl!

Despite being involved in a legal battle with a paparazzo, Kanye West was happy as can be with our photogs, waving and smiling as he got into his black Lambourghini in Hollywood on Wednesday.
At one point he even warned photographers, "I'm letting you all know, I'm about to drive all the way to Anaheim."
Who knew he could be such a pussycat? Is the hot headed Yeezus performer extending an olive branch to photogs after his highly publicised LAX altercation.
The 36-year-old, who allegedly attacked videographer Daniel Ramos outside LAX in July, was subsequently charged with criminal battery and attempted grand theft. Yesterday court documents claimed that he acted in self defense. According to papers followed by his lawyer, West said that as he was leaving the airport Ramos was trying to provoke him as he attempted to get in his waiting car and that, "his safety was in immediate danger."
Kim Kardashian's main squeeze says that his actions were, "necessary for his self-defense and safety and was justified in doing those acts."
We are just glad to see Kanye and the shutterbugs getting along!

We were shocked earlier this month when we learned that Zac Efron had
secretly completed not one but
two stints in rehab this year, and now new allegations have surfaced about the extent of his drug use.
The National Enquirer reports that prior to seeking treatment, the former
High School Musical star nearly overdosed on oxycodone at all-night party at a New York hotel suite. A source tells the publication that earlier this year the actor collapsed after snorting too much oxy. “I was scared for him,†an eyewitness said. “My worst fear was that he’d died from an overdose ... If Zac doesn’t clean himself up, he’ll be Hollywood’s next big drug tragedy.â€
The
Enquirer obtained a photo of the actor passed out after the alleged overdose, and the source revealed that Efron allegedly got the pills from the same dealer as Macauley Culkin. We had already heard about Efron's alleged abuse of cocaine and Molly (MDMA), and according to
People, when Zac attended a bash last November for a pal (who was an "entertainment superstar's son"), he told his fellow partygoers that he was "rolling."
A source tells the mag:
"He stood maybe one foot away from my face and kept saying, 'I've been up for four days. I haven't slept.' He was running around with his shirt off. He kept talking, going a mile a minute. He said something like he'd been on a party train."
It's not known when Zac's partying really started, but it seems like it could have been prompted by his split from Vanessa Hudgens in 2010. The magazine reports that when Efron was fresh from his five year relationship with Hudgens, he went on a serious coke bender in Las Vegas. "They were snorting coke and pulled an all nighter at the strip club, they went straight from the strip club to a pool party at like, noon," a source added.
When Zac's substance abuse got out of control and started interfering with his professional life, he reportedly turned to Adderall to perk up. "People on set thought he was acting weird," an insider revealed.
Thankfully the actor seems to be in a better place after seeking treatment this spring, and he's reportedly cut all of his former party pals out of his life.

They were last seen together in June at a fundraiser in N.Y.C.
Sounds like the
Pretty Woman star is back on the market, ladies!

That's not just some sideboob -- that's a full-breast mess! Nicki Minaj showed some major boobage when she headed to the
Ellen DeGeneres Show on the Warner Brothers lot in Burbank, Calif., on Friday. And given the fact that the "Starships" singer is posting these pics all over her Instagram -- Nicki is clearly quite proud of her daring look.
First Miley's
pasty-tastic iHeartRadio performance and now this! Our eyes can't take it any more. Cover up your lady lumps, ladeez!
Nicki posted multiple photos of herself wearing a cropped jacket with only the top buttons buttoned, leather sweatpants, which Kanye West claims to have invented, strappy heels and a gold belt. The tough-talking diva played up the look with stick-straight blonde hair, pink lips and her boobs. Did we also mention she showed off her boobs?
The rapper was on the show to promote her new fragrance Minajesty, as well as her new clothing range for K Mart. Let's hope they make shirts!
On Tuesday it was announced that Nicki the first woman ever to make Forbes Hip Hop Cash Kings list. Making $29 million a year, the 29-year-old came in fourth, behind P Diddy, Jay Z and Dr. Dre. While we don't love the skin-baring outfit or the pics, whatever Nicki is doing -- it definitely seems to be twerkin'!
