Nothing shocks when it comes to him anymore.

Jen Garner isn't thrilled that ex Ben Affleck is dating 22-year-old Playboy model Shauna Sexton, but she thinks it's also just par for the course these days, Us Weekly reports.

"Jen realized a long time ago that she cannot fix Ben and that his problems are not hers to solve. She’s not his babysitter. She just wants to protect the kids. But she does wish Ben would keep his life more private," a source dished to the mag.

"Of course she’s not pleased he’s dating a 22-year-old Playboy model. But she’s also not surprised. Jen has come to expect this from Ben. She’s not going to get involved. She can’t make decisions for him," the source added.

Good thing she feels that way, because the Oscar winner refuses to be controlled and is determined to make his own choices.

"He is happy being able to date who he wants and not feel tied down to a serious relationship. Lindsay was more serious about him. He enjoyed her company but was not looking for anything permanent now. Ben likes a woman with brains and beauty but he also likes to be free to do what he wants," another insider told People.

We bet Jen G is glad she didn't keep trying to make her marriage work!

 

Ariana Grande Reveals Wedding Plans With Fiance Pete Davidson

She's one smitten kitten!

Ariana Grande sat down with Michael Strahan for a GMA interview, and while they did discuss her new hit album Sweetener, they also chatted about her recent engagement and impending nuptials to SNL funny man Pete Davidson.

So how did she know he was The One?

"It's just like a feeling. That's so cheesy, like, people are always like, 'When you know, you know.' And you're like, 'Well, yeah, whatever, okay.' You just feel it. He just ticks every box, and just gets better every day ... I'm very grateful for him," she gushed.

She's so in love, she even named a song after him!

"I didn't know what to call it, cause I was like ...I made it just to, like, send to him, you know, as just like a nice little sentiment. Like a love letter. We're so annoying, huh?" she cooed.

Davidson popped the question to the pop star after less than a month of dating, but they're going to take their time planning their upcoming wedding.

"My friends and I, my mom and everybody have been like, brainstorming and ... sharing ideas and stuff. It's really fun. I work so much, I've never, like, spent this much time or energy ... planning something personal. I might cry, I'm just so excited," she revealed.

We have a weird feeling these two might actually last!

 

Kim Accessorizes Her Pink Latex Dress With A French Fry Clutch For Dinner With Former Assistant Steph Shep

Posted on Wed Aug 22nd, 2018 8:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


We love this whole look, but we definitely do NOT love sunglasses at night!

Kim Kardashian is really feelin' herself and her skinny bod these days, and she showed it off last night in a pink latex minidress, which she accessorized with a Judith Leiber french fry clutch and Yeezy PVC heels. The reality star walked the red carpet for the What Goes Around Comes Around 25th anniversary celebration, before grabbing dinner with her old assistant Steph Shep at Madeo.

Rumors have been swirling for months that KKW and her former employee were feuding, but clearly that's not the case! In fact, she hopped on social media to document their hangout to make sure her fans knew it was all good between the ladies.

The mother-of-three is really going all out with her fashion lately, and there's a reason!

"She was toned down and out of the public eye after the robbery, but eventually she realized she needs to live her life. She has fun with fashion and style, and yes, it’s part of her image — to be glamorous and push boundaries. So she’s going to do it," a source told People.

We're all for the risqué ensembles, but she should just ditch the Spanx already! She's tiny enough as it is, and it ruins the whole vibe when her control top undergarments peek out!

 

See Ya, Lindsay Shookus! Moving Trucks Haul Belongings Out Of Ben Affleck's Pacific Palisades Mansion

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 2:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


This is why you don't move in without a ring on your finger!

We spotted moving trucks outside Ben Affleck's $20M Pacific Palisades mansion this afternoon, and workers were busy hauling boxes and wardrobe containers out of the home. Clearly his ex Lindsay Shookus is getting all her stuff back and getting out of dodge, in the wake of his new romance with Playboy model Shauna Sexton!

The saddest part? The SNL producer had just moved in at the beginning of July! Talk about a waste of time and effort.

Multiple sources have told us that the cause of their breakup was threefold. Firstly, their long distance relationship and work commitments on separate coasts made things difficult, and the Oscar winner's battles with addiction and sobriety didn't help things. Then there was the fact Jen Garner wasn't Lindsay's biggest fan, and didn't want her anywhere around their three children, making cohabitating nearly impossible.

A source tells X17:
    "Jen is thrilled that Ben and Lindsay are over. She would rather he be with anyone but Lindsay, since she was the mistress that broke up their marriage. Of course, she thinks it's childish and ridiculous that he's going after a Playboy model half his age, but she'll take it. Jen's worst fear was Ben popping the question to Lindsay and having another baby, so she's relieved she doesn't have to worry about that anymore."

That said, Jen G didn't seem too "thrilled" last night when we asked her about her former spouse's hookup with the pinup after her Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony. Watch her reaction!

 

Madonna Defends Her Self-Centered VMAs Speech About Aretha Franklin

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 1:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff

Im with the Winner!! The beautiful @camila_cabello ! So proud of her! 🌈💕🎉. And just to clarify: I was asked to present video of the year by MTV! And then they asked me to share any anecdotes I had in my career connected to Aretha Franklin! I shared a part of my journey and thanked Aretha for inspiring me along the way. I did not intend to do a tribute to her! That would be impossible in 2 minutes with all the noise and tinsel of an award show. I could never do her justice in this context or environment. Unfortunately most people have short attention spans, and are so quick to judge. I love Aretha! R.E.S.P.E.C.T. 🙏🏼. I Love Camilla! Congrats! I LOVE my dress! AND. I love-L O V E!! ♥️ and there is nothing anyone can say or do that will change that. #vmas #postivevibes

A post shared by Madonna (@madonna) on


It was never NOT supposed to be about Madge!

Madonna paid tribute to the late Aretha Franklin with a rambling speech before presenting Artist of the Year at the VMAs last night, and she was quickly slammed on Twitter for making the whole thing about her and her lengthy career.

So this morning, the pop icon hopped on Instagram to defend herself, and explain why she shared so many seemingly self-centered anecdotes.

"Im with the Winner!! The beautiful @camila_cabello ! So proud of her! 🌈💕🎉. And just to clarify: I was asked to present video of the year by MTV! And then they asked me to share any anecdotes I had in my career connected to Aretha Franklin! I shared a part of my journey and thanked Aretha for inspiring me along the way," she wrote on a pic of herself and the "Havana" songstress winner.

"I did not intend to do a tribute to her! That would be impossible in 2 minutes with all the noise and tinsel of an award show. I could never do her justice in this context or environment," she continued.

"Unfortunately most people have short attention spans, and are so quick to judge. I love Aretha! R.E.S.P.E.C.T. 🙏🏼. I Love Camilla! Congrats! I LOVE my dress! AND. I love-L O V E!! ♥️ and there is nothing anyone can say or do that will change that. #vmas #postivevibes," she concluded.

We guess this makes it slightly less embarassing.

Scary!

Post Malone's private plane is getting ready to make an emergency landing in New York after blowing out two tires upon takeoff on its way to London this morning, multiple outlets report.

The singer and 16 other passengers on board have been flying around for the past several hours trying to burn up fuel in preparation for the landing, and 9 fire trucks, at least 25 personnel and 12 ambulances are on the ground waiting to come to its aid, TMZ reports.

The plane was first diverted to Westfield Barnes Regional Airport in Springfield, Massachusetts before diverting again to Stewart International Airport in New Windsor, New York. As soon as the fuel burns down, they will attempt the landing.

What a bad ending after winning Song of the Year at the VMAs last night.

Story developing...

UPDATE: Posty's plane just landed safely at Stewart International Airport and there are no injuries being reported.

 

Report: Kim And Kanye Planning Baby #4, Will Have Last Embryo Implanted In Surrogate "Soon"

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 12:25pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Another baby West is in the works!

Kim and Kanye are planning to have their fourth and final child, and it will be a boy, Us Weekly reports. "[They] have one last embryo left,” a source dished to the mag, noting that it was male.

The couple will have the embryo implanted in their surrogate "soon," meaning that an announcement could be made within the next couple months.

Kimmy K can no longer carry a child because of her risky pregnancies with daughter North and son Saint, so they will go the gestational carrier route like they did with daughter Chicago. It's unclear if they plan to use the same woman as before.

"Doctors said that it wasn’t safe for my — or the baby’s — health to carry on my own. After exploring many options, Kanye and I decided to use a gestational carrier. Although I have used the term surrogate in the past, a gestational carrier is actually the technical term for a woman who carries a baby that she has no biological relationship to. A traditional surrogate donates her egg, is artificially inseminated with the father’s sperm and then carries the baby to term. Since we implanted my fertilized egg in our gestational carrier, our baby is biologically mine and Kanye’s," she explained on her website shortly before Chi's birth in January.

We're calling it now... they'll name him God West!

 

Report: Justin Bieber And Hailey Baldwin's Recent Tearful Outings Are Over The Model's "Insecurity" About Selena Gomez

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 11:35am PDT       By X17 Staff


We can see why she's worried!

Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber have been photographed having tearful exchanges on multiple occasions in recent weeks, and now we're learning why things have been so emotional between the couple. It all has to do with the model's fear that Selena Gomez will always be The Biebs' true love!

"He tries reassuring her. But Hailey’s dealing with daily onslaughts from trolls online, plus his own mom and others in Justin’s circle who think Selena’s his soul mate, not her," a source dished to Radar.

The "Come & Get It" songstress also feels that JB is using his fiancee as his pawn to make her jealous.

"Selena’s friends all know that the only reason he got engaged to her was to get back at Selena. [Selena] thinks the whole thing is a joke and knows it will never last," the source added. Ouch!

It doesn't help things that the Guess stunner feels inferior to the brunette beauty.

“It’s very tough on her, because she’s quite insecure in her looks and thinks Selena’s so much more beautiful than she’ll ever be,” the insider revealed.

It's always hard to have the other woman lurking in the background waiting to pounce!
