He's really keeping busy to keep his mind off Selena Gomez!
Justin Bieber and his buds had a fun-filled afternoon yesterday when they dropped by an escape room in Hollywood, and they followed it up by catching Adam Sandler's comedy show at the El Rey theater later that night.
What is this outfit, and what happened to hot JB?! From the hair to the acne to the socks and sandals combo, it's just all bad!
Perhaps The Biebs is making himself as unattractive as possible in an effort to avoid attention from the ladies, as he waits to see if the "Come & Get It" songstress will take him back? Apparently, he's doing his best to give his ex some space, but it's been a struggle.
"Justin hasn’t texted or spoken to Selena since they went their separate ways, but not because he doesn’t want to—the exact opposite in fact—he’s just respecting her wishes and giving her some time. It drives Justin crazy having zero communication," a source dished to Hollywood Life.
"He’s constantly seeing or hearing things that he knows Selena would dig, and he wants to share them with her, but so far he’s managed to resist the temptation. Right now, Justin’s trying to be around friends as much as possible, and to keep his brain occupied, because whenever he’s on his own and trying to just chill, he inevitably starts thinking about Selena and how much he misses her," the source added.
Someone call the swagger coach, he's lost his mojo!

Mimi's coming clean about her mental health.
Mariah Carey just revealed that she was diagnosed with bipolar II disorder back in 2001 after being hospitalized for a physical and mental breakdown.
"I didn’t want to believe it. Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me. It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn’t do that anymore," she told People.
At first, the songstress thought she just had a sleep problem, but she soon realized it was something more serious.
"But it wasn’t normal insomnia and I wasn’t lying awake counting sheep. I was working and working and working. … It turns out that I was experiencing a form of mania. Eventually I would just hit a wall. I guess my depressive episodes were characterized by having very low energy. I would feel so lonely and sad — even guilty that I wasn’t doing what I needed to be doing for my career," she explained.
After a couple rough years, which included her breakup from fiance James Packer, the chart topper decided to take control of her life.
"I sought and received treatment. I put positive people around me and I got back to doing what I love — writing songs and making music. I’m actually taking medication that seems to be pretty good. It’s not making me feel too tired or sluggish or anything like that. Finding the proper balance is what is most important," she detailed.
Sharing her struggle has been cathartic, too.
“I’m just in a really good place right now, where I’m comfortable discussing my struggles with bipolar II disorder. I’m hopeful we can get to a place where the stigma is lifted from people going through anything alone. It can be incredibly isolating. It does not have to define you and I refuse to allow it to define me or control me," she insisted.

We can see why!
Khloe Kardashian's family had reservations about her romance with Tristan Thompson when they first began dating, and now those have been validated after he was caught cheating on her just days before she's set to give birth!
The reality star didn't think her man was capable of this type of betrayal, so all of this comes as a complete shock.
"As far as she knew, there were no negatives. Once she made the decision to commit, she was all in and trusting. He was her everything. They had a life together. She honestly thought he treated her like gold, like a queen. [He] gave her everything, doted on her, told her how beautiful she was. To her, life was perfect. And it all just came crashing down," the source explained.
Khloe needs to find a nice guy that treats her right and stay the hell away from athletes!

This is Angelina's worst nightmare!
Brad Pitt has been secretly dating gorgeous MIT professor Neri Oxman since last November, and apparently the Hollywood hunk is already head over heels!
"Brad’s absolutely smitten by her. Their chemistry is off the charts," a source dished to Us Weekly.
Page Six was the first to report the news, but they claimed that the pair had a "professional relationship" that could turn into something more. Not so, say insiders!
"They got romantically involved almost right away. He’s been going to great lengths to make sure he’s not spotted by prying eyes. They are very much a couple," the source added.
So how have they managed to keep their love affair under wraps until now?
"Brad has been spotted going into her apartment building on multiple occasions late at night and emerging the next morning after she leaves to teach. Neri doesn’t cook. They have been ordering food in from her favorite restaurants, and Brad has been doing a lot of cooking," the insider revealed.
Sources say they traveled internationally together in February to South Africa for the Design Indaba conference, where the Israeli native was set to be a featured speaker.
The actor was first put in touch with the Angelina look-a-like for help on an architecture project he was working on, and things took off at lightning speed after that.
"Brad had only planned on spending two days at MIT last fall, but ended up staying for a week. Neri invited Brad for dinner at her Cambridge apartment, which is very close to the campus. They got romantically involved almost right away. Neri had been dating a very wealthy man, and dumped him almost immediately," the source explained.
This is the exact type of woman to make Angie seethe with jealousy!

Someone's got some SERIOUS explaining to do...
Tristan Thompson was caught on camera making out with an unidentified woman at the PH-D Lounge in Manhattan on Saturday night, just days before his pregnant girlfriend Khloe Kardashian is set to give birth to their daughter. The athlete was in the Big Apple with his team The Cleveland Cavaliers for an upcoming game against the Knicks.
In videos sold to DailyMail, you can see the NBA star wearing his hood while leaning in for a kiss from the woman, who had her arm around his neck. It's clear from other photos of the evening that the two were by each other's sides all night long, and even left together!
Making things even more awkward than they already are, paparazzi openly asked him "Where's Khloe?" as he made his way out of the venue with the girl in tow. Yeah, that's what we're all wondering!
Eyewitness accounts of the make out aren't making it any easier for him to explain it away as simply a deceiving camera angle, either.
"I was there and he was on the table right next to us with a group of friends and some girl who he was obviously making out with all night. They were holding each other and it was so obvious. They were there when I got there and they were part of a big group of friends.They were talking and being around each other all night," the person who filmed the clip told the outlet.

Swanky!
After their royal wedding on May 19th, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly set to honeymoon at the beautiful Hoanib Valley Camp in Namibia, Africa! The continent is a special place for the couple, as it's where they first fell in love during a trip to Botswana, and it's also where Harry does a lot of his wildlife conservation work.
"A joint venture between the local communities and the Giraffe Conservation Foundation, the world’s only Africa-wide giraffe conservation organisation, the camp is an elegant, intimate affair that immerses you into the wilds of the desert. The six rooms blend seamlessly with the environment, offering a simple aesthetic that matches the rugged landscape down to a tee. Days are spent tracking endangered rhino, desert-adapted elephant, and of course desert-adapted giraffe, before retiring to your private veranda to marvel at the magnitude of your surroundings (G&T in hand)," the luxury destination's website reads.
The camp, which costs $600-a-night per person, is entirely solar powered to reduce the carbon footprint to a minimum, and all the furnishings are sourced by local Rundu carpenters and Himba carvers. The structures are all made from wood, bamboo and 70% recycled-material composite.

Can't stop, won't stop!
Kim Kardashian is going out of her way to make up from those unflattering cellulite shots in Mexico last year, by posting a million bikini selfies from her vacation to Turks and Caicos. The reality star is flaunting her toned bod in a variety of skimpy swimsuits, and we do have to admit she looks amazing!
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star was totally traumatized after those now-infamous paparazzi photos hit the Internet, and she was determined to make sure she was never in that position again.
"I saw these awful photos of myself when I was on a trip in Mexico and people were Photoshopping them and sharpening them. I mean, I definitely was not in my best shape - I hadn't worked out in 12 weeks. I had two surgeries on my uterus," she told the ladies of The View after the fact.
"I was already not feeling like myself. And then when people were sharpening them and making them look way worse, and then those were going around. I was like, 'OK. I'm gonna get it together'," she added.
Not one to be outdone, sister Kourtney is also posting up a storm to remind everyone she's just as hot!
Gwen Stefani just announced her upcoming Las Vegas residency, and we can't think of a more perfect entertainer to see after a fun night at the casino.
"To be able to do a show in Vegas is such an incredible honor. Growing up in Anaheim, California, I could never have imagined one day having my own Vegas residency. I have been so fortunate to tour throughout my career, but to create a show for Vegas is something I’ve never experienced and I can’t wait," she said in a statement.
Gwen Stefani — Just a Girl will kick off on June 27 inside the Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.
"She is in full planning mood – she’s picking the set list, stage design and costumes. Gwen is getting really into it and is really excited for it," a source dished to Us Weekly.
