Why Is Rihanna Posing With A Shirtless Donald Glover For A Selfie?

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 2:42pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Are these two hinting at a secret project in the works? Why else would Rihanna and a shirtless Donald Glover post for a selfie together?

Here are the options: a musical collab (Glover's leaning on a guitar), or Glover's long-time collaborator director Hiro Murai's first feature film Guava Island, set in Cuba. That's pretty much it -- there are no more possibilities ... NO, they can't be hooking up; Glover just welcomed a second son with his long-time partner Michelle and Rihanna's sworn off men after breaking up with her b-friend Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel in June.

Glover's set to perform at Rihanna's annual Diamond Ball in September, as his musical alter-ego Childish Gambino. So by all accounts these two are good pals. Cool, because they're two of our favorites!

 

How Does Kylie Mark Her 21st Birthday? With A Photoshoot, Of Course!

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 12:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


She's nothing if not predictable.

Kylie Jenner marked turning 21-years-old with a wild party, but she also posed for a birthday-themed photoshoot! The LipKit queen ate cake on the kitchen counter for the shots, and it's pretty amazing how she can make stuffing your face still look sexy.

Baby daddy Travis Scott was smart to steal her away from Tyga.

Speaking of which, rumor has it the young billionaire and the rapper might be ready to tie the knot in secret!

“Kris is a little worried that Kylie might elope with Travis. He’s planning a special surprise for Kylie’s 21st birthday and Kris fears he might whisk Kylie off and marry her without any warning. Kris loves Travis and wants him as a son-in-law but she definitely wants to be there for the wedding," a source dished to Hollywood Life.

"Kris also wants to protect her billionaire daughter. She wants lots of advance notice of any wedding to get that prenup locked into place. The problem is Kylie’s very unpredictable and cannot be told what to do. If Travis asks her to elope for her birthday she may just say yes," the source added.

She's always been way beyond her years.

 

Selena Gomez Shows Justin Bieber What He's Missing With A Bikini Selfie

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 11:35am PDT       By X17 Staff


Eat your heart out, JB!

Selena Gomez posted these bikini shots on Instagram to illustrate how "great life is" lately, and we have a feeling Justin Bieber took a peek when Hailey Baldwin wasn't looking!

The Biebs' fiance might have gotten the ring, but she's secretly concerned that the "Come & Get It" songstress could steal her future husband away from her at any moment.

"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 still have a sneaking suspicion we haven't heard the last of Jelena!

Pete Davidson Told Ariana Grande He Was Going To Marry Her The Day They Met

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 11:10am PDT       By X17 Staff

Katie McCurdy exclusively for GQ

It was truly love at first sight.

Pete Davidson told Ariana Grande the day that they met that he was going to marry her, he revealed in the new issue of GQ.

"The day I met her, I was like, ‘Hey, I’ll marry you tomorrow.’ She was calling my bluff. I sent her a picture [of engagement rings]. I was like, ‘Do you like any of these?’ She was like, ‘Those are my favorite ones,’ and I was like, ‘Sick,’” he confessed to the mag.

The SNL funny man is still adjusting to being one half of a power couple, too.

"It’s all bullsh*t. GQ wouldn’t hit me up if I didn’t recently get engaged to a super-famous person. Nobody gives a sh*t, you know what I mean? I gotta tell you, up until about two months ago, if someone wrote about me, I saw it. Nobody gave a sh*t two months ago, so anytime there was an article, I would obviously see it, because my mom would send it to me and be like, ‘Yaaay!’" he admitted.

The comedian still can't believe his good fortune after finding the chart topper, either.

"The universe works in weird ways. All I know is that I’m the luckiest guy in the world," he gushed.

He sounds like one smitten kitten!

 

Report: Kourtney Kardashian "Cut Off" Ex Younes Bendjima After Their Split

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 10:50am PDT       By X17 Staff


No second chances here.

Kourtney Kardashian has iced out ex-boyfriend Younes Bendjima after their breakup, People reports.

"Kourtney is doing great. She isn’t seeing Younes. She is happy being single for now. After all the drama with Scott over the years, she wasn’t going put up with any drama from Younes. She cut him off. She is focused on her kids and herself," a source dished to the mag.

There are a lot of rumors swirling around about a possible reconciliation with Scott Disick, and it sounds like the hard partying father-of-three wouldn't be opposed to it, even though he's in a committed relationship with Sofia Richie.

"[Scott would] get back together with Kourtney in a heartbeat. Sofia makes him happy but they are also very on and off. It wouldn’t be surprising if Scott tried to pursue things again with Kourtney down the line," the source added.

Younes really blew it! There goes your free ride and yacht vacations, dude!

 

Ben Affleck Celebrates His 46th Birthday With The Kids

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 9:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


His lady love didn't score an invite!

Ben Affleck celebrated his 46th birthday with his three children at Barton G restaurant in Hollywood last night, and the actor looked thrilled to be spending some quality time with his kiddos. That said, we bet he wished girlfriend Lindsay Shookus could join, but we know that Jen Garner has strict rules against her playing stepmom to their kids.

Speaking of his romance, apparently the Batman actor is fully in love with the SNL producer, and their relationship is only growing by the day.

"Lindsay is the girl next door. She's completely unpretentious. She is fiercely loyal to her friends. She's a rock to them and her family. She's the friend that is there during good and hard times and she's the first person to show up next to your side. He thinks she is very witty and charming and loves her company," a source dished to E! News.

"Lindsay is crazy in love. She would marry Ben in a heartbeat," the source added.

For now, though, the Oscar winner is focusing on his family and his sobriety. His ex-wife recently requested that he recommit to a recovery program if he wanted to see his two daughters and his son, so he's been dropping by a treatment facility almost daily since then.

We bet he's happy to leave last year behind him. That was a hard one!

 

Blac Chyna Knocks Off Kylie's Blonde Bob

Posted on Thu Aug 16th, 2018 8:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


There's no shame in her copycat game!

Blac Chyna made an appearance at Project Club in LA last night, and the former stripper totally knocked off Kylie Jenner's blonde bob hairstyle. If we were the LipKit queen we'd be weirded out that this chick just rips off everything we do! Anyways, moving on...

The video vixen and ex Rob Kardashian have been suspiciously silent in recent months, after some epic drama went down on social media, but it sounds like they're doing their best to co-parent daughter Dream.

"Chyna and Rob are fine right now. There's no major drama between them; it's all civil and they're getting along for Dream," a source dished to E! News, noting that they share custody. "They are so particular about each getting their time that it's down to the hour," the source added.

She couldn't resist throwing in a small dig, though, when photographers asked her who Dream looked more like. Watch!

A legend is gone.

Aretha Franklin passed away at age 76 this morning at her home in Detroit, after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

The soul singer's health had been going down hill for months, and she had dropped down to just 86 pounds. She was surrounded by family, who just released a statement.

"In one of the darkest moments of our lives, we are not able to find the appropriate words to express the pain in our heart. We have lost the matriarch and rock of our family," they said.

She performed infrequently in recent years as she battled her cancer, but her last appearance was at Elton John's amFar event last November.

The 18-time Grammy winner is survived by her four sons.

RIP to the Queen!
