That's one way to do it!
Sia caught wind that someone was trying to sell a naked pic of her to a paparazzi agency, so she decided to share the pic on her own Twitter to kill the sale. You've gotta love her!
"Someone is apparently trying to sell naked photos of me to my fans. Save your money, here it is for free. Everyday is Christmas!†she wrote, in reference to her upcoming holiday album.
She also shared the offer. "If you make the purchase it will be unblurred and you will receive and [sic] additional 14 images," the person wrote on the image watermarked "Client Preview."
What we wanna know is how the singer caught wind of this?!
Since half the Kardashian-Jenner clan is pregnant -- or has someone pregnant for them, in Kim's case -- there's just no end to the interest in these ladies' bellies. In fact, we found it interesting that, Monday night at the studio following a taping session for Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim flaunted her NON-pregnant abs in a sports bra, sweats and button-down.
Meanwhile, Khloe wore a blousey black top and skinny jeans -- skinny jeans that weren't so skinny. And again, people, we're not fat-shaming here; Khloe's body is obviously beautiful and on-point, it's just a little more voluptuous than usual so despite her not having made an official announcement that she's pregnant, we think these pix speak for themselves.
Kourtney recycled the same outfit she wore on a date with boyfriend Younes Bendjima this weekend at Nobu -- but flared jeans and a black V-neck top. For once, she's the only one NOT pregnant!

There it is! The baby bump we've all been waiting for!
Kylie Jenner debuted her pregnant belly Sunday as she hopped on a private jet for a girls' trip to celebrate mom Kris' 62nd birthday. Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Kendall were all along for the mini-vacay and Kylie and Khloe brought their special cargo on board.
Kylie wore Yeezy Calabasas sweats to stay comfy on the flight and to attempt to strategically hide her growing bump -- alas, the profile doesn't lie -- that's a pregnant belly!
Fans have been waiting for Kylie to confirm her pregnancy ... and for expected baby daddy Travis Scott to acknowledge he has a child on the way but so far only allusions, teases, accidentally revealing Snapchats and even accusations we Photoshopped these pix but still no official confirmation! Well Kylie knows we didn't retouch the photos so why's she drawing attention to them? She clearly wants everyone to pay attention!
It was a happy occasion yesterday as the girls' took off for the Amangiri resort in Canyon Point, Utah where Kim and Kanye just returned from celebrating her birthday! So while not a really original idea, the girls' gave their mom a nice getaway in the beautiful desert location, just an hour and a half away by private jet. The ladies returned Monday morning, early, but this time the pilot pulled into a hanger to protect the ladies' from photographers' lenses as they disembarked. Too late now, Kylie! The baby bump's been revealed!

We applaud him for wanting to make a change.
In the wake of Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, and his own sexual harassment scandals, Ben Affleck is committed to making sure the problem doesn't continue in Hollywood.
"[I'm] looking at my own behavior and addressing that and making sure I'm part of the solution," he told The Associated Press.
So what does the solution look like exactly?
The Oscar winner thinks "more women need to be pushed to power" and sexual harassment needs to be "a men's issue" and not something only women speak out against. We agree!
The Batman star spoke out against Harvey Weinstein right after the first round of allegations against the disgraced studio boss surfaced, but then he was accused of being a hypocrite when Hilarie Burton revealed Affleck grabbed her boob during an appearance on TRL in the early 2000s.
"I am saddened and angry that a man who I worked with used his position of power to intimidate, sexually harass and manipulate many women over decades. The additional allegations of assault that I read this morning made me sick," he wrote on Facebook.
"This is completely unacceptable, and I find myself asking what I can do to make sure this doesn’t happen to others. We need to do better at protecting our sisters, friends, co-workers and daughters. We must support those who come forward, condemn this type of behavior when we see it and help ensure there are more women in positions of power," he added.
Affleck plans to donate residuals from his Weinstein Company and Mirimax movies to the RAINN Sexual Assault hotline and Film Independent.

She had a busy, religion-filled weekend!
Selena Gomez went for a hike with her girlfriends on Sunday morning, but she basically spent the rest of the last couple days with on-again boyfriend Justin Bieber!
The lovebirds hit an event at Hillsong on Friday night, before slipping out to enjoy a romantic dinner at Morton's steakhouse. Then they went back for church services not once but twice on Saturday! That's a lot of praying!
It sounds like The Biebs couldn't be happier that he's won back his one true love.
"Justin is doing great. Spending all week with Selena is the dream week for him. He is trying to take things slowly, but it hasn’t really worked. He is too excited to spend time with her," a source dished to People.
"He is waiting for Selena to tell him that they are officially back together. He doesn’t feel any rush, because no doubt they are already emotionally back together. Justin still needs to win her family over and he realizes it will take some time. But he very much feels he is a different person. He knows what he did wrong in the past and understands that Selena deserves better. He wants to be with her and will do anything to prove he can be a great boyfriend," the source added.

She was oozing old Hollywood glamour!
Angelina Jolie was just one of the many celebs that attended the Hollywood Film Awards last night in Beverly Hills, but she definitely outshined the others in a glamorous silver Jenny Packham dress and a bold red lip.
The Oscar winner was on hand to receive the Hollywood Foreign Language Film Award with Loung Ung for their critically-acclaimed film First They Killed My Father. The actress wrote and directed the movie, and it was a project close to her heart.
"When the Khmer Rouge took over the country, they killed and tortured artists. The vast majority of them were slaughtered for their voices. To be a Cambodian artist has not been easy. For all the regime did to destroy art and artists in Cambodia, they failed. This is for everyone back home in Cambodia, this is for them, they made this film," Jolie said in her acceptance speech.
Other stars at the event included Eva Longoria, James and Dave Franco, Shailene Woodley, Mary J. Blige, and Jake Gyllenhaal.
It's still weird to see Angie on a red carpet without Brad!

This is so sad.
Lamar Odom collapsed while partying at Bootsy Bellows nightclub on early Sunday morning, and TMZ got video of the whole thing! The troubled basketball star fell to the ground and security and patrons rushed to his side to help him regain his footing, and although he was conscious, he seemed pretty out of it!
The person who took the video told the news site that they personally witnessed the former Laker drinking alcohol for several hours before the incident, which would mean he has relapsed after a prolonged period of sobriety. The athlete went to rehab earlier this year, but lately he has been spotted at strip clubs and other questionable venues, leading to fears that he's fallen off the wagon.
This is especially worrisome, considering he almost died when he was found unconscious in a brothel in 2015. At the time, Khloe Kardashian nursed him back to health, but now she has moved on and is expecting a baby with boyfriend Tristan Thompson, so it's unlikely she's going to rush to his side to get him back on the right path.
Odom's rep told TMZ that he collapsed due to severe dehydration stemming from an intense workout earlier in the day, but that he's "doing great."
We'd like to believe that, but we just don't. We're terrified for Lam Lam and hope he gets the help he needs!
