Ben Affleck's New Playmate Girlfriend Shauna Sexton Takes Her Dog For A Walk

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 10:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


She managed to tear herself away from her new beau long enough to give her pooch some exercise!

Playboy model Shauna Sexton took her dog for a walk around the neighborhood yesterday, but she still managed to make it sexy in a minidress and sneakers. The brunette beauty has been grabbing headlines for her dates with Ben Affleck, and things appear to be heating up, as they recently had a sleepover at his $20M Pacific Palisades mansion.

The pinup quickly replaced the A-list star's girlfriend Lindsay Shookus after they broke up, and he's making no attempt to hide this new romance.

Shauna might want to enjoy it while it lasts, because we have a feeling Jen Garner is about to issue another ultimatum - rehab or the kids!

The Oscar winner was photographed getting an alcohol delivery at his house yesterday. He's supposed to be working on his sobriety so that he can play a meaningful role in his children's lives, and one of his ex-wife's stipulations has been that he must actively participate in a recovery program. We caught him going to meetings as recently as last week, but the photographic evidence doesn't lie.

Ben should really be focusing less on his love life and more on his health and wellbeing!

 

Asia Argento Denies Sexual Assault Claims, Reveals Anthony Bourdain Paid The Settlement

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 9:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


Something's fishy about this whole thing.

Asia Argento has broken her silence on the reports that she sexually assaulted her co-star when he was only 17-years-old, but parts of her statement just don't add up.

A man named Jimmy Bennett claims the Italian actress plied him with alcohol and performed oral sex on him before the two had intercourse, while he was underage and she was 37-years-old, but she swears that didn't happen.

Here's her full statement:
    "I strongly deny and oppose the contents of the New York Times article dated 20 August 2018, as circulated also in national and international news.

    I am deeply shocked and hurt by having read news that is absolutely false. I have never had any sexual relationship with Bennett.

    I was linked to him during several years by friendship only, which ended when, subsequent to my exposure in the Weinstein case, Bennett — who was then undergoing severe economic problems and who had previously undertaken legal actions against his own family requesting millions in damages — unexpectedly made an exorbitant request of money from me. Bennett knew my boyfriend, Anthony Bourdain, was a man of great perceived wealth and had his own reputation as a beloved public figure to protect.

    Antony [sic] insisted the matter be handled privately and this was also what Bennett wanted. Anthony was afraid of the possible negative publicity that such person, whom he considered dangerous, could have brought upon us. We decided to deal compassionately with Bennett's demand for help and give it to him. Anthony personally undertook to help Bennett economically, upon the condition that we would no longer suffer any further intrusions in our life.

    This is, therefore, the umpteenth development of a sequence of events that brings me great sadness and that constitutes a long-standing persecution. I have therefore no other choice but to oppose such false allegations and will assume in the short term all necessary initiatives for my protection before all competent venues.

Interestingly, she made no mention of the reported photograph that Bennett possesses that shows them naked in bed together after the alleged encounter. The $380K Bourdain paid was under the condition that Argento be granted the rights to the picture, so it hasn't been published, but multiple outlets claim to have seen it.

What a mess!

 

Report: Kylie Jenner And Travis Scott Slept In Different Hotels After The VMAs

Posted on Tue Aug 21st, 2018 8:19am PDT       By X17 Staff


This isn't a good sign.

Kylie Jenner attended the VMAs with baby daddy Travis Scott last night in NYC, and viewers couldn't help but notice how subdued she seemed as she watched him perform from the audience. They hit an after party together, too, but when the night was over, they retreated to separate hotels, Radar reports. That clearly means there was some trouble in paradise!

The LipKit queen recently shot down a Twitter user that claimed to have insider info that the rapper moved out of her Calabasas home and they'd secretly split, so this latest news definitely adds fuel to the fire that their relationship is in trouble.

Perhaps all this drama with Nicki Minaj is causing them to fight? Travis has been beefing with Nicki over their album sales, and poor Kyls was dragged into it when the songstress accused her of using daughter Stormi to promote her man's album Astroworld.

We doubt they're going to break up, but it sounds like they've hit a rough patch!

 

MUST-SEE PHOTOS - Lindsay Shookus Was At Ben's Pacific Palisades Mansion Just One Week Before His Date With Shauna Sexton

Posted on Mon Aug 20th, 2018 1:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


He didn't waste any time!

Practically every major media outlet is reporting that Ben Affleck and Lindsay Shookus split in late July, weeks before his first date with Playboy model Shauna Sexton at Nobu Malibu on August 16, but that's just not true!

We caught the SNL producer hugging Ben's sober mentor and Refuge Recovery founder Noah Levine at the actor's Pacific Palisades mansion on August 9, and apparently she called him over because things with the actor were going downhill and he was in a bad place.

A source with direct knowledge of the situation tells X17:
    "Ben's sober coach made the house call because Ben was in a bad way. Lindsay got fed up with dealing with Ben's issues, and ultimately that's what led to the end of the relationship."

A lot of people would assume that Jen Garner is less than pleased that the father of her children is hooking up with a pinup girl, but she's actually just glad that Lindsay is out of the picture.

The same source tells us:
    "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."

Karma is real, people!

 

Noah Cyrus And Boyfriend Lil Xan Release A Duet

Ahh young love!

Miley Cyrus' little sister Noah and her boyfriend Lil Xan just released their song "Live or Die," and it's actually not that bad! "Hey babe we have a song out togethheerrrr now," she tweeted her rapper beau.

So how did these two originally get together?

"Xan slid into the DMs. It works people. Actually, it didn't work," she told E! News recently.

"He DMed me like in February and I didn't see it for months and then I saw that he was following me and I was like: 'Lil Xan, cool, he's following me. I'll follow him back,' And then I saw his DM and we're just hanging out making music," she added.

We wonder if her family approves of her romance with this bad boy?

 

Hailey Baldwin Cuddles With "Absolute Best Friend" Justin Bieber In Cute Instagram Pic

absolute best friend.

A post shared by Hailey Baldwin (@haileybaldwin) on


They always say to marry your BFF!

Hailey Baldwin posted this adorable photo of herself and Justin Bieber cuddling with the caption "absolute best friend," and it's pretty obvious she's still on cloud nine from JB popping the question. Look at that rock!

The couple have slowed down wedding planning because they want to enjoy their engagement, but if it was up to the model, they'd tie the knot sooner rather than later!

"Hailey does not want to put any sort of pressure on Justin to rush this wedding, but it’s hard for her not to wish that they could just get married tomorrow. She feels the sooner she can get married to Justin the better, because she’s convinced that saying their vows and making a formal commitment will be the final push [to ensure that] Selena stays out of their lives forever," a source dished to Hollywood Life.

"Hailey lived through Justin going back and forth between her and Selena for so long, that it’s hard to get out of the habit of thinking about the ‘other woman.' Hailey feels like the stakes are high because Selena could always be quietly watching and waiting for things between Hailey and Justin to fall apart again. So the sooner Hailey can [get married], the more secure she’ll feel about their future together, without Selena," the source added.

We'll all have to wait and see if they actually make it down the aisle!

 

Ben Affleck's Jilted Girlfriend Lindsay Shookus Deletes Instagram Account

Posted on Mon Aug 20th, 2018 10:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


This is usually a sign things aren't going too well.

Ben Affleck's girlfriend Lindsay Shookus deleted her Instagram account right around the time he was spotted on a date with Playboy model Shauna Sexton, and rumor has it the pair broke up. We'd hope so! Either that, or he was blatantly cheating on her.

The A-list actor took the pinup on a romantic dinner date at Nobu Malibu, and then we spotted them going through the Jack-n-the-Box drive-thru yesterday. He didn't waste any time moving on!

The SNL producer must be devastated, as they both broke up their marriages to be together after a years long affair. Needless to say, Jen Garner wasn't fond of Lindsay, and it caused problems.

A source tells X17:
    "Ben and Lindsay broke up because it was just too difficult. Her job and her daughter are both in NYC, so she couldn't move. Jen Garner didn't want Lindsay around the kids, too, so that forced Ben to have to choose. He was always going to choose his children over his girlfriend, and they just realized there was no easy way to be together. She's trying to keep her cool but she's heartbroken. She wanted more than anything to be Ben's wife."

Shauna, on the other hand, is thrilled that she's caught the Hollywood heartthrob's attention! When a commenter on her Instagram questioned whether she was "sent from heaven," she referenced her man's superhero role. "No just Batman," she wrote back.

Ben should let the sheets cool down for a while!

 

Kylie Slams Rumors That Travis Scott Moved Out Of Her Calabasas Home

Posted on Mon Aug 20th, 2018 9:20am PDT       By X17 Staff


Not so fast!

Kylie Jenner doesn't respond to every rumor written about her, but she felt the need to speak out this time, after someone on Twitter claimed Travis Scott moved out and they had split.

"Remember how my dad is a mover, and moves all the Kardashian/Jennner‘s????? Well home boy spilled the tea and told me that TRAVIS SCOTT AND KYLIE SPLIT. He said they moved all of Travis‘ s—t out of her house….Kylie also gave my dad more tequila so it’s lit," the person wrote in the now-deleted tweet.

Someone brought it to the LipKit queen's attention, and that's when she shot it down.

"Obviously fake. S—t was never moved i never gave anyone tequila," she fired back.

The 21-year-old billionaire recently opened up about the couple's living situation in the newest issue of Vogue.

"I’m actually scrolling through Instagram right now, and it says that me and Travis don’t live together, and so I just want to say that we never miss a night with each other. We go back and forth from my Calabasas house and the city home that we actually got together. So just if you wanted to add that in," she told the mag.

In other Kylie/Travis news, Nicki Minaj is furious that Scott's new album Astroworld is #1 and hers is #2 on the Billboard 200 charts, and she thinks his super famous girlfriend is to blame for his success.

"Travis sold over 50K of these. With no requirement of redeeming the album! With no dates for a tour, etc. I spoke to him. He knows he doesn’t have the #1 album this week. I love my fans for the #1 album in AMERICA! … 4 albums in, #1 in 86 countries," she tweeted.

"I put my blood sweat & tears in writing a dope ass album only for Travis Scott to have Kylie post a tour pass telling ppl to come see her & [their daughter] Stormi. lol. Im actually laughing. #Queen broke the record of being number 1 in 86 countries. Thank Jesus & thank you to my fans," she continued.

Then she took aim at Spotify for also screwing her over!

"Spotify put drake’s face on every playlist but told me they’d have to teach me a lesson for playing my music 10 mins early on #QueenRadio. Even tho they’ve been giving away my music for free for years & I am one of the top Spotify artists of all time. Spotify had to teach me a lesson but rewarded the man who has had an Apple radio show the longest; inadvertently helping the Apple platform the most. … They took away my promotion they had promised for the 1st cpl days b/c of this," she fumed.

We hope they all have a showdown at the VMAs tonight!
