Remember THIS?!
Now champion boxer Oscar de la Hoya says he's "seriously" considering running for the office of President of the United States!
Hey -- at least his skeletons are out of the closet! The boxing champ told a group of reporters, "If Arnold [Schwarzenegger] can be governor, if [Donald] Trump can be president, then why can't a Mexican-American who won an Olympic gold medal, who's over 35, and a U.S. citizen, run for presidency?"
He went on to say, "As I got older, I get wiser. And as I get wiser, I get smarter. And as I get smarter, I start to realize the millions and millions of people who've told me, 'Oscar, why don't you run for some kind of office? Because you can make a difference.'"
Okaaaay ... well, we were hoping our next candidate might have a little more political experience under her belt and maybe fewer loose screws but between de la Hoya, Kanye and The Rock, it looks like 2020's gonna be a doozy!
And we're all about straight guys dressing in lingerie, but just for fun, let's revisit Oscar's turn as a sexy lady back in 2007. He might get the drag vote -- but who are we kidding? Queens wouldn't vote for this dude!

You go, girl! Selena Gomez has a sense of humor and, clearly, a secure sense of self-esteem ...
The triple-threat wore a bejeweled braid in her hair Tuesday night in New York, out to dinner with pals, with the word "ugly" in rhinestones. No, she's not calling herself ugly, nor her hairdo, she's clapping back at Stefano Gabbana, half of famous design duo Dolce & Gabbana, for calling her ugly.
In June, Gabbana commented on a collage of Selena images on well-known Italian Instagram page The Catwalk, writing, "è proprio brutta," which means "she's so ugly." Selenators quickly came to their queen's defense, commenting on The Catwalk and on D&G's own respective social media accounts and shaming the designer for his ridiculous comment that seemed to come out of nowhere.
Now Selena's making the moment her own with this creative clap-back. Selena, 1; Gabbana, 0!
Cutie cousins Stormi and Chicago had a sleepover the other night at mama Kylie Jenner posted this adorable pic of the cousins' first overnight together and captioned it, "Slumber party."

While she was doing crunches, he was getting a cleaning.
We caught Shauna Sexton heading to the gym today in LA, right around the time we also caught Ben Affleck dropping by the dentist for an appointment. We're surprised they didn't "accidentally" cross paths for a bit to squeeze in a little quality time before he headed back to rehab.
The Playboy model is making the most of her time in the spotlight, so she hopped on Instagram yesterday to share a pic of herself in a thong from a recent photoshoot with her followers. Now we see why the Oscar winner is so interested!
The pinup might want to enjoy the romance while it lasts, because insiders are telling us her days are numbered.
A source tells X17:
"Counselors are playing nice with Ben because he's still in the early stages of his recovery, so they're not trying to slap him with a million rules, but once he moves into more long term care, his therapists and sponsors are going to put their foot down over him dating Shauna. It's a well known fact in the recovery community that it's a good idea to stay single for your first year of sobriety, and he hasn't been dating Shauna long enough to justify otherwise. It's not like she's the love of his life."
We're dying to know what Lindsay Shookus thinks of all this!

Aww daddy's little girl!
Kanye rarely posts photos on social media, but he couldn't help himself this time, because this pic of him kissing baby daughter Chicago was just too cute!
You'd think a guy with kids wouldn't keep writing music with such vulgar lyrics, but 'Ye isn't like everyone else. He just dropped the video for his new song "I Love It," and the tune is pretty raunchy to put it nicely.
The Louis Vuitton Don parades around with collaborator Lil' Pump in Yeezy-clad sumo suits, and it's basically the funniest thing we've ever seen, even though we're almost positive he wanted us to take it seriously.
Kim Kardashian just dropped the promo shots for her new KKW Cherry Blossom beauty collection on Instagram, and we almost didn't even recognize her!
The reality star has lost a lot of weight this year, but in the snapshots, it looks like they photoshopped her head onto another - skinnier! - person's body. Not only that, but her face is so frozen, it's pretty obvious that they went a little heavy with the retoucher there, too.
"This collection is so beautiful and personal to me. The array of pink, red and berry hues are all inspired by my love of Cherry Blossom trees. The shades are so versatile and dynamic, making it easy to go from a day to night look," she wrote to tease the launch.
Her wax figure looks more real than she does these days!

Finally some good news!
Rumors have been going around that Ben Affleck isn't being cooperative in rehab and not taking his recovery seriously, but his younger brother Casey just put those to rest.
“He’s doing great. He’s in rehab and he’s recovering and seems to be doing well," the Manchester by the Sea star told ET at the Toronto Film Festival on Monday.
"I think he’s holding up, taking some time for himself, his family. He’s going to be OK. He’s a great guy, and he’s going to get things back on track," he echoed to Extra.
Last year, Casey admitted on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast that he was three years sober, and that alcoholism runs in their family, so he's a good source of support for his Batman bro!
Cardi B has no regrets about picking a fight with Nicki Minaj and throwing her shoe at her during NYFW, and she would do it all over again given the opportunity, TMZ reports.
The "Bodak Yellow" rapper firmly believes she was in the right, because she is adamant the "Queen" songstress was talking trash about her parenting skills and daughter Kulture. She maintains she was just sticking up for her family, and points the finger at Nicki for being a notorious bully.
Nicki, for her part, was "mortified" and "humiliated" to be a part of such a scene, and has made it clear she thinks Cardi has no class.
Always one to brush her shoulder off, NM attended the Tommy Hilfiger show last night in the Big Apple with race car superstar Lewis Hamilton, and now romance rumors are swirling. Not only that, but she just dropped her "Barbie Dreams" music video, so it's pretty obvious she's trying to get people to move on and talk about something else!
