Roseanne Claims Her Racist Planet of the Apes Tweet Was About "Anti-Semitism"

Posted on Thu Jun 14th, 2018 9:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


She should really just be quiet and let this blow over.

Roseanne just took to Twitter to defend herself against claims she's a racist, and the comedienne seems to be trying really hard to convince people that her "Planet of the Apes" comment about Obama aide Valerie Jarrett was misinterpreted.

"I want u all2 know I’m fine. I’ve been using this time2 reflect &2 gain insight on what I said & how it was misunderstood. Needless2 say I’m NOT what people have accused me of! I’ve never practiced ‘RACISM’ in my entire life & never will," she wrote.

The TV star went on to try and tie the Planet of the Apes writer and his anti-Semitism to Obama's Iran deal, but we're not sure we're following.

"Rod Serling wrote Planet of The Apes. It was about anti-semitism. That is what my tweet referred to-the anti semitism of the Iran deal. Low IQ ppl can think whatever they want," she continued.

Then she gave her fans an update on how she's doing in the wake of the scandal.

"Guys, I have been planting trees digging in the earth singing and feeling a great deal of relief. I will begin to speak for myself in media soon. I have developed a bit of palsy in my head and hands due to the stress I have lived thru-I sleep alot now-without ambien too, thank G0D!! goodnight-we are winning! don't give up! PEACE is coming!" she revealed.

This is what you call a PR nightmare!

 

D&G Designer Stefano Gabbana Calls Selena Gomez "So Ugly" On Social Media

Posted on Thu Jun 14th, 2018 8:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


Ouch!

Designer Stefano Gabanna took a swipe at Selena Gomez's appearance on social media yesterday, and almost immediately he began getting major backlash for his catty comments.

"É proprio brutta!!!," he wrote on a pic of the "Come & Get It" songstress. The translation in English? "She's so ugly!!!" it read.

Although the brunette beauty has yet to respond, 13 Reasons Why actor Tommy Dorfman quickly came to her defense.

"@stefanobabbana you’re tired and over. your homophobic, misogynistic, body-shaming existence will not thrive in 2018. it is no longer tolerable or chic. please take many seats," Dorfman wrote.

This isn't the first time the D&G founder has made waves with his controversial opinions. He recently dissed Kate Moss, and he's also been outspoken about opposing LGBTQ adoption, despite the fact that he's openly gay.

SG should give him a piece of her mind!

 

Kim Flies To Memphis For Emotional Meeting With Freed Prisoner Alice Marie Johnson

Posted on Wed Jun 13th, 2018 1:55pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Say what you want about Kimmy K, but this is a great story!

Kim Kardashian touched down in Memphis today to meet freed prisoner Alice Marie Johnson for the first time face-to-face, just weeks after going to the White House to personally ask President Trump to pardon Johnson, who was serving a life sentence for a first time nonviolent offense.

The two shared a hug on the doorstep of Johnson's family home, before sitting down for an interview and goofing around on Snapchat together. It seems like they're BFFs now!

Ms. Johnson penned a thank you letter to the reality star after her release, and wanted people to know what a big heart the E! starlet had.

"Dear Ms. Kardashian, I am so humbled by what you are doing and have already done on my behalf. When I spoke with Attorney Shawn Holley and she disclosed the name of my benefactor, I had to take time to process and digest the news that you were the one she had been alluding to. There are no words strong enough to express my deep and heartfelt gratitude. Ms. Kardashian, you are literally helping to save my life and restore me to my family. I was drowning and you have thrown me a life jacket and given me hope that this Life jacket I’m serving may one day be taken off," Johnson wrote.

"There are defining moments in history that have shaped the destiny of this nation. I believe that we are part of a defining moment. When Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on that bus (the same year that I was born – 1955)… that was a defining moment. She was an ordinary woman whose courage ignited and united the heart of America to stand together against a very present evil that could no longer be tolerated. This is so much bigger than either one of us," she continued.

"I believe that history will record that Kim Kardashian had the courage to take a stand against human warehousing and was a key figure in meaningful criminal justice reform becoming a reality. A million trillion thanks!! May God's blessing rest upon you and yours. THE BATTLE IS ON! Sincerely, Alice Marie Johnson," she concluded.

We love a good happy ending!

 

Farrah Abraham Arrested After Drunken Fight With Beverly Hills Hotel Security Guard

Posted on Wed Jun 13th, 2018 12:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


She should have escaped through the back door - pun intended!

Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham was arrested in the early hours of Wednesday morning after getting into an altercation with a security guard at the Beverly Hills hotel. Earlier in the day, she posted a photo to Instagram of herself hanging by the pool with Mark Cuban.

"On June 13, 2018, at approximately 1:19 a.m., Beverly Hills Police officers responded to the Beverly Hills Hotel for a report of a disturbance inside the hotel restaurant. Officers arrived shortly thereafter and made contact with the person complained of, Farrah Abraham,” a spokesperson for the Beverly Hills Police Department told People.

“A male adult hotel security officer reported that he asked Abraham to leave the hotel after she refused to disengage from a verbal altercation with hotel guests. The security officer reported that Abraham struck him in the face with her forearm, grabbed his ear and pushed him in the face as he attempted to prevent her from re-entering the hotel. Officers noted that Abraham exhibited signs of intoxication during the investigation," they added.

In a video obtained by TMZ, the amateur porn star can be heard telling cops to "go f*ck yourselves" as she was being loaded into the cruiser. When she realized her fate, she burst into tears and insisted she wasn't resisting arrest.

The single mom is still being held on $500 bail for misdemeanor battery and trespassing.

💕Baby True 💕

A post shared by Khloé (@khloekardashian) on


Sounds like the little one won't be a Midwesterner for long!

Kylie might be choosing not show off pics of her baby on social media anymore, but Khloe certainly isn't! The Revenge Body star just posted these adorable snapshots of daughter True, and we can't believe how quickly she's growing up!

The new mom and her little princess are reportedly packing up their life in Cleveland and prepping to head back to LA, but they're not leaving Tristan Thompson behind. Instead, the cheating NBA star will follow them out to the West Coast, but won't be sleeping under the same roof.

"They’re both leaving Cleveland and heading to LA, but they’re going to live apart. They’ve been fighting nonstop. They can’t get through one conversation without it turning into a huge argument," a source told Hollywood Life.

"She can’t stop being angry at Tristan. Not living together is a clear sign that things aren’t going well," the source added.

At least she got a precious child out of this garbage relationship!

He needs to just put a ring on it already!

J.Lo and A-Rod act like a happily married couple, as evidenced by this cuddle sesh pic she posted of them and their kids after taco night.

Jenny from the Block knows she has found The One, but isn't in a rush to head to the altar, after her past failed marriages.

"We have to take our time. I’ve made plenty of mistakes in my past. We’re mature now. We’re grown-ups, and we’re going to take our time and we’re going to do things at our own pace," she told GMA recently.

"Our life right now is incredibly wonderful. Between our kids and our work, we’re truly blessed. We don’t need anything more right now," she added.

He'd be wise not to let her get away!

 

Tiffany Haddish Confirms Actress Sanaa Lathan Is Beyonce's Face Biter!

Posted on Wed Jun 13th, 2018 9:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


The mystery has finally been cracked!

Tiffany Haddish started a total frenzy when she confessed that an actress "on drugs" bit Beyonce during a backstage mix-and-mingle following one of Jay-Z's concerts, and people were practically foaming at the mouth trying to figure out who it was. Now, the Girls Trip star confirms that it was none other than Love and Basketball star Sanaa Lathan!

"I’m super good friends with her stepmom and her dad, and they were mad at me. They were like, 'Why would you do this to the family? You know, black actresses, you guys have to stick together, it’s so hard for you guys to get work as it is, why would you try to ruin her career?'" Haddish told The Hollywood Reporter.

"But I didn’t try to ruin her career. I never said her name! I was just trying to say how Beyoncé kept me from goin’ to jail that night. I coulda just shut my whole career down," she added.

Allegedly the nibble was meant to be playful and not aggressive, but that it came after Queen B felt Sanaa was getting a little too close to comfort with her hubby Jay-Z and stepped in. Lathan totally denied it, too!

"Y'all are funny. Under no circumstances did I bite Beyonce and if I did it would've have been a love bite," she tweeted as speculation reached a fever pitch.

Now we can all go back to living and breathing.

He certainly knows how to get people talking!

Kanye just released his new Yeezy ad campaign, and it features a bunch of naked models wearing nothing but his pricey sneakers. We have to admit, the nudity draws your eyes to the footwear!

The rapper is a master at getting attention for his new collections, and that plan always involves Kim Kardashian.

This time, he had his reality star wifey set up paparazzi shots with Splash News days before the campaign release, but we paparazzi'd the paparazzi and released the pics a whole 12 hours before Splash, who had to get approval from Kimmy K herself. Hey, all press is good press, right?

If 'Ye gets his way, we're all going to be dressed like futuristic triathlon bike riders wearing moon shoes!
