This is beyond horrible.

The shooter, a 64-year-old man named Stephen Paddock, opened fire on the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival with an automatic weapon from his hotel room at the Mandalay Bay.

"Tonight has been beyond horrific. I still don't know what to say but wanted to let everyone know that Me and my Crew are safe. My Thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved tonight. It hurts my heart that this would happen to anyone who was just coming out to enjoy what should have been a fun night. #heartbroken #stopthehate," Jason Aldean, who was performing at the time, said on Instagram.

"Praying for all the innocent victims and their families in Las Vegas," Celine Dion wrote. "My heart is breaking for everyone in Vegas tonight. Simply devastating. So much loss," Kelly Clarkson added.

Here are some other notable reactions:
    Mariah Carey: "Horrified to hear about the shooting in #LasVegas. My thoughts are with the victims and their families. Praying for everyone's safety 🙏💔."
    Bob Saget: "Oh God. Vegas. WTF is happening. Can’t keep up with all the pain this country is facing. Sending love to Vegas."
    Taylor Swift: "There are no words to express the helplessness and sorrow my broken heart feels for the victims in Vegas and their families."
    Josh Gad: "Oh God. Just woke up to this sickening news. What is happening to this country? Those poor poor people. I’m numb."
    Kate Hudson: "💔 My thoughts and prayers are with you 💔 #StopThisHate #StopTheViolence 😢."
    Brad Paisley: "Praying for everyone at #HarvestFestival. There are no words right now that suffice."
    Adam Levine: "My heart is broken. I am sick with sadness for all those suffering in Vegas… and what remains of my broken heart belongs to you in this moment."

We're at a loss for words.

I Am Cait Money

Posted on Sun Oct 1st, 2017 11:04am PDT       By X17 Staff


You go, girl!

Caitlyn Jenner treated herself to a little gift after going through her transition, becoming her true, best self and raking it in with her reality show "I Am Cait," which documenteed the whole process. So what's a girl to do when she's ready to celebrate?! No, not a new bag or new shoes ... a new airplane!

The pilot and aircraft enthusiast purchased a $1.5 million treat for herself in the form of a twin-engine Beechcraft Baron and she took it for a test flight Friday for the first time. With a co-pilot by her side, she put on her headphones, go on the mic with the control tower and flew the friendly skies of Van Nuys in her new toy.

It's been a rough week for Jenner, after inadvertently confirming daughter Kylie's pregnancy, much to the chagrin of the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, she also suffered backlash from Kim, who called her step-dad a "liar" and "not a good person" in the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

Perhaps this is Caitlyn's way of getting away from it all ...

 

Marilyn Manson Hospitalized After Stage Set Collapses On Top Of Him

Posted on Sun Oct 1st, 2017 10:43am PDT       By X17 Staff



Rockin' out is a dangerous business!

Marilyn Manson was hospitalized Saturday night after a massive stage prop collapsed on top of him during a performance at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York. The makeup'd rocker was standing under -- and appeared to even attempt to climb -- a scaffolding with two huge gun sculptures attached to it, as fans caught the tower fall on top of Manson in these videos posted to social media ...




Manson was singing her version of the Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams" when the accident occurred. The crowd gasped collectively, the stage lights when off and then house lights came up as it was announced the concert would be cut short "due to injury." A rep for Manson told Variety, "Manson suffered an injury towards the end of an incredible NYC show. He is being treated at a local hospital." The extent of the singer's injuries is still unknown.

This isn't the only incident on what was only the third concert date into Manson's Heaven Upside Down tour in support of his new album due to be released this coming Friday. At his Pittsburgh show last Friday night, Manson reportedly tumbled off the stage during his concert and then told the crowd he broke his ankle. He went on to tell the audience his tour manager is a “fascist."

Manson is schedule to perform in Boston on Monday night; it's unclear whether that performance or any others will be cancelled.

 

Lin-Manuel Miranda Says Trump Is Going "Straight To Hell" For Response To Puerto Rico Hurricane Disaster

Posted on Sat Sep 30th, 2017 9:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


Who would have ever thought we'd find ourselves here ...

The President of the United States is blaming Puerto Ricans for being lazy in the aftermath of one of the worst natural disasters this country has ever seen, Hurricane Maria, and Donald J. Trump has taken to Twitter to blast San Juan's mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz for doing nothing to aid in the relief effort. Of course President Trump Tweeted this from the golf course, where he's enjoying some R&R this weekend.

So 37-year-old Pulizter Prize-winning Hamilton playwrite Lin-Manuel Miranda -- whose father is from Puerto Rico -- took to Twitter Saturday morning to slam the President, with this message: "You’re going straight to hell, @realDonaldTrump. No long lines for you. Someone will say, ‘Right this way, sir.’ They’ll clear a path."

This was in response to Trump's early Saturday morning Tweet that read, "They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort. 10,000 Federal workers now on Island doing a fantastic job." Trump blamed the Mayor's "poor leadership." Miranda fought back with, "She has been working 24/7. You have been GOLFING. You’re going straight to hell. Fastest golf cart you ever took."

Mayor Cruz made this impassioned plea for help -- "We are dying," she told the media and the world. She's begging for help as her citizens are running out of clean water and gas and have had no electricity since the hurricane hit and no prospect of getting it back for months. "I'm begging anyone who can hear us to save us from dying ... You are killing us with the inefficiency and the bureaucracy." She went on to say, "If we don't get the food and the water into people's hands, we are going to see something close to a genocide."



Celebs like John Legend and Lady Gaga took to Twitter to criticize the President and show their support for Puerto Rico ...

 

Blac Chyna And Her Lawyer Lisa Bloom Pose Like They're In A Rap Video

Posted on Fri Sep 29th, 2017 1:29pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Umm what it going on?

Blac Chyna and her lawyer Lisa Bloom posed for an impromptu photoshoot in front of her Range Rover yesterday, and we have a feeling it's meant to be a giant F-you to Rob Kardashian! After all, he's the one who paid for the pricey ride. He's also paying BC $20K-a-month in child support thanks to Bloom, but that might not last forever.

TMZ reports that the sock designer is basically broke, so his famous family agreed to help him shell out the dough to his former fiancee, because they are concerned for his daughter Dream's wellbeing.

That being said, the video vixen agreed to drop her domestic violence accusations and restraining order to get that amount, but courts could lower the total if they deem it unreasonable for Rob's situation. Translation- Kris Jenner hands the payments back over to Rob, he claims he can't afford them, and they get lowered. Bad news for the former stripper!

In other news, the Lashed bar owner is participating in pal Amber Rose's Slutwalk this weekend in downtown LA, and she plans to preach to the crowds about revenge porn and how to handle it. We're surprised the K clan didn't silence her with a gag order!

 

Will Caitlyn Jenner Be The Next One To Announce Her Pregnancy?

Posted on Fri Sep 29th, 2017 1:15pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Just kidding! But seriously, that's the only thing that could make this KarJenner baby boom even more unbelievable!

Caitlyn Jenner grabbed her daily Starbucks this morning in Malibu, and not only did her shirt slide over and expose her cleavage, but it also made her look like she was expecting. Not the most flattering ensemble, and we couldn't resist making a joke! In all seriousness, though, the transgender star reportedly isn't thrilled daughter Kylie is pregnant for real.

"She thinks Kylie is way too young to have a baby, and that she should have waited until she was in a long term committed relationship. Obviously, Kylie has more than enough money to ensure that she can pay for help but Caitlyn still thinks that having a baby will take a huge toll on Kylie's life," a source dished to Hollywood Life.

"Caitlyn is concerned that Kylie and Travis really haven't been dating very long, and that a baby will put a big strain on their relationship, but Kylie believes the opposite - that she and Travis will be together forever," the source added.

Cait hasn't had the easiest week. First, Kim slammed her and called her a "liar" and "not a good person" on the Keeping Up with the Kardashians premiere teaser, and then Will & Grace's premiere episode mocked her. "Oh, we want to love her, but she makes it impossible," Will says as a clue during a game of Heads Up! "Caitlyn Jenner," Grace quips. Ouch!

Given her estrangement from the K clan, we wouldn't be totally surprised if she found an egg donor and surrogate and had another kid just so she wasn't so lonely!

 

Bella Thorne Poses Naked For GQ Mexico

Caliente!

Bella Thorne stripped down and posed completely nude for the latest issue of GQ Mexico, and the actress wanted to make it very clear that she requested her photos not be retouched. This is all natural, folks!

"I specifically asked for no re touching on this photo, and lemme tell you I have insecurities, about pretty much everything. That's natural & that's human. You might look at this photo and think oh shush bella, but just know everytime someone looks in the mirror they simply don't see what everyone else sees," she wrote on Instagram.

"Know that it's completely normal to feel insecure and it's accepted. honestly I wish everyone talked more about their insecurities so more people in the world could know they aren't alone. That it's ok. As a public persona you know naturally that everytime you shoot with a magazine there is always small retouching," she continued.

"Cuz yeah if they show my acne scars or a wrinkle in my forehead or my teeth aren't perfectly white, people will look at the photo and say no she's not perfect and usually most people don't want the public trashing and I get it, But fuck it I'm here to tell you that's right I'm not FUCKING PERFECT. IM A HUMAN BEING AND IM REAL. So hip hop your asses over the fence and GET OVER IT. @gqmexico," she concluded.

Girl power!
