Luann De Lesseps Reveals "The Final Straw" That Prompted Her To File For Divorce From Tom D'Agostino

Posted on Tue Aug 29th, 2017 10:20am PDT       By X17 Staff



This isn't a shocker.

Luann De Lesseps revealed the incident that caused her to pull the plug on her marriage to Tom D'Agostino on Watch What Happens Live One-On-One, and it's nothing surprising. Basically, her husband was cheating, which is something we've all known all along.

"It was like the weekend before the reunion, basically. Tom went out and he called up an old girlfriend and they met up with a group of people and I didn't know about it. I found out about it the next day in the press, so that for me was the final straw. I was like, "I can't do this anymore,'" she told Andy Cohen.

As for those reports that the reality star roughed up her hubby in a Manhattan restaurant?

"I didn't slap him. What I did was grab his face. It was in the heat of the moment, and I was hurt by something, so I just - I wanted his attention so I grabbed his face, so it wasn't really a slap," she insisted.

We're so sad they split. Their drama was epic!

Kourtney Kardashian Can't Stop Showing Off Her Bikini Bod

Posted on Tue Aug 29th, 2017 9:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


You've been working out, we get it!

Kourtney Kardashian has done nothing all summer except for post pics of her bikini bod, and while she looks amazing, it's getting pretty boring. She's almost 40-years-old and it seems like she's trying to prove she's still young and hot. It's probably because she's dating someone almost half her age!

Speaking of her romance, things are really heating up between the reality star and boy toy Younes Bendjima!

"Kourtney is having a ball with Younes, he’s exactly what she needed after the hell she went through with Scott [Disick, 34] — he’s like a breath of fresh air. They’re keeping things pretty casual still, and just having fun, neither of them want to be in a a serious committed relationship right now, so it’s perfect," a source dished to Hollywood Life.

"Younes hasn’t met the kids, and Kourtney doesn’t want to introduce him to them at this stage, but if things were to become more serious between them then obviously she would. Right now though, Kourtney is just enjoying letting her hair down, and being someone other than just a ‘mom.’ Dating Younes has given Kourtney a much needed new lease on life, she didn’t realize just how much all the drama with Scott had been bringing her down, until now," the source added.

The Lord must be kicking himself right now!

 

Demi Lovato Dresses Down In Denim After A Busy Week

Posted on Tue Aug 29th, 2017 9:15am PDT       By X17 Staff



She deserves a little down time!

Demi Lovato ran errands around LA yesterday, and she opted for a comfortable denim-on-denim outfit. It's been quite the week for the "Skyscraper" songstress! She sang the national anthem at the Mayweather/McGregor fight, and then she wowed at the VMAs. As if that wasn't enough, she also earned her blue belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu (pic below). Girlfriend has been busy!

She's bracing herself to make even more headlines when her new song comes out, because apparently the lyrics are going to make it pretty obvious who she penned it for.

"Sometimes you put out music that you just feel like everyone is going to know who it's about. Headlines are going to come out of it, and it's like, when you write a song, you're just being vulnerable, and you're just writing about something that's inspiring you, so all the baggage that comes with it is what I'm kind of nervous about," she told MTV.

"I think that everything happens for a reason, and certain emotions are felt at certain points in your life, and you don't always have to explain them to people. So whatever you want to think about it — you go into whatever theories you have — fine. But I know what it's about and who it's about and I'm just going to let it be," she added.

Now we wanna hear it!

 

Ed Skrein Steps Down From Hellboy Amid Whitewashing Controversy

Posted on Tue Aug 29th, 2017 8:25am PDT       By X17 Staff


He just won over a lot of fans.

Ed Skrein announced he was stepping down from the Hellboy reboot following backlash over his casting, and he sounds like he really wanted to make an impact with the decision. The actor had originally signed on to play Major Ben Daimio, who is Japanese-American in the original comic books.

"I accepted the role unaware that the character in the original comics was of mixed Asian heritage. There has been intense conversation and understandable upset since that announcement, and I must do what I feel is right," he wrote on Twitter.

"It is clear that representing this character in a culturally accurate way holds significance for people, and that to neglect this responsibility would continue a worrying tendency to obscure ethnic minority stories and voices in the Arts. I feel it is important to honor and respect that. Therefore I have decided to step down so the role can be cast appropriately," he continued.

"Representation of ethnic diversity is important, especially to me as I have a mixed heritage family. It is our responsibility to make moral decisions in difficult times and to give voice to inclusivity,” Skrein shared. “It is my hope that one day these discussion will become less necessary and that we can help make equal representation in the Arts a reality. I am sad to leave Hellboy, but if this decision brings us closer to that day, it is worth it. I hope it makes a difference," he concluded.

The people involved in making the film couldn't be more proud of the stance he decided to take.

"Ed came to us and felt very strongly about this. We fully support his unselfish decision. It was not our intent to be insensitive to issues of authenticity and ethnicity, and we will look to recast the part with an actor more consistent with the character in the source material," a statement from the producers and studio read.

Bravo!

 

Kim Admits That Daughter North "Doesn't Like Her Brother" Saint While Co-Hosting Live! With Ryan Seacrest

Posted on Mon Aug 28th, 2017 1:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


We guess not everyone in the Kardashian clan is close!

Kim co-hosted Live! with Kelly and Ryan this morning with Ryan Seacrest to fill in for Kelly Ripa, and when she was asked how her kids get along, she felt compelled to be brutally honest. The reality star revealed daughter North isn't the biggest fan of her younger brother Saint!

"I don’t know if it’s because she’s the older sister. I don’t know what it is. I thought it was a phase. She does not like her brother and it’s so hard for me,” she confessed.

"She would get so jealous when I would breastfeed and all that kind of stuff. And now, the phase isn’t going away," she added.

In fact, little Nori goes out of her way to make sure Saint gets left out!

"She thinks she’s outsmarting me. Like, she’ll have a tea party and say, ‘No boys allowed,'" Kimmy K explained.

North West already sounds like a little diva!

 

Caitlyn Jenner Ditches Her Donald Trump "Make America Great Again" Cap

Posted on Mon Aug 28th, 2017 11:55am PDT       By X17 Staff


It's about time!

Caitlyn Jenner zipped through Malibu in her vintage ride over the weekend, and when we noticed that she was wearing a hat we were horrified, thinking she was rocking her "Make America Great Again" cap! Not to worry, though, as she's changed it out for a less controversial one.

The transgender star got A LOT of backlash when she was photographed driving in her Trump gear, so she opted to avoid that this time around. Not that she's not dealing with the aftermath still, though! The I Am Cait star was ambushed by a trans women at a recent LGBT event and given an earful about her support of the President.

"It’s really f–ked up you continue to support somebody that tears us down. It’s really f–ked up. Nobody wants you here … it’s really ridiculous. You’re a f–king fraud," the heckler yelled at her. Ouch!

She certainly hasn't been making too many friends with her political views!

 

Mark Zuckerberg And Priscilla Chan Welcome Second Daughter

Posted on Mon Aug 28th, 2017 11:20am PDT       By X17 Staff


A new little genius is finally here!

Mark Zuckerberg and wife Priscilla Chan have welcomed their second daughter, the Facebook founder announced today. "Priscilla and I are so happy to welcome our daughter August! We wrote her a letter about the world we hope she grows up in, and also hoping she doesn't grow up too fast," he captioned a family snapshot.

The accompanying letter is so touching, too!

"Dear August, welcome to the world! Your mom and I are so excited to see who you will become. When your sister was born, we wrote a letter about the world we hoped she and now you will grow up in -- a world with better education, fewer diseases, stronger communities, and greater equality. We wrote that with all the advances in science and technology, your generation should live dramatically better lives than ours, and we have a responsibility to do our part to make that happen. Even though headlines often focus on what's wrong, we still believe these positive trends will win out. We're optimists about your generation and the future," Zuckerberg began.

"But rather than write about growing up, we want to talk about childhood. The world can be a serious place. That's why it's important to make time to go outside and play. You will be busy when you're older, so I hope you take time to smell all the flowers and put all the leaves you want in your bucket now. I hope you read your favorite Dr. Seuss books so many times you start inventing your own stories about the Vipper of Vipp. I hope you ride the carousel with Max until you've tamed every color horse. I hope you run as many laps around our living room and yard as you want. And then I hope you take a lot of naps. I hope you're a great sleeper. And I hope even in your dreams you can feel how much we love you," he continued.

"Childhood is magical. You only get to be a child once, so don't spend it worrying too much about the future. You've got us for that, and we'll do everything we possibly can to make sure the world is a better place for you and all children in your generation. August, we love you so much and we're so excited to go on this adventure with you. We wish you a life of joy, love and the same hope you give us," he concluded.

Little August has no idea how rich she is already!

 

Kim Kardashian Channels Jackie O For Mother-Daughter Photoshoot With North West

Posted on Mon Aug 28th, 2017 10:05am PDT       By X17 Staff


Let the backlash begin!

Kim Kardashian channeled Jackie O to pose with daughter North West for Interview magazine, and we feel like a lot of people are going to accuse her of darkening her skin tone for this! The reality star has long been a fan of the famous fashion icon, so what better way to pay tribute to her?

"America's New First Lady Kim Kardashian West and her daughter North West," the cover reads. The images were shot by photographer Steven Klein, who worked with Kimmy on her famous nude Love magazine shots.

In the accompanying interview, the tabloid darling opened up about motherhood, raising biracial children, and her ever evolving image.

"We have strict rules about the kids [on KUWTK]. Some seasons they're not on at all. Some seasons they're on a little bit, just to show a bit of personality, although there are never story lines about them. But then there's social media, on which I've always been really open. When I'm out and people call North's name, that's when it's weird for me. She lives such a normal life, believe it or not, at home," she explained of being careful with her kids' privacy.

So does she worry about her little ones being mixed-race in such a volatile political climate?

"I'm very conscious of it. Kanye always has his family around and people who look like my daughter — that's important to me. She's obsessed with her curly hair, and if she finds someone who has the same hair, she runs to them and is like, 'You have curly hair like me?'" she admitted.

She's one of the most famous people in the world, so when she needs some sound advice or finds herself in a tough situation, there's only a few people she can turn to.

"I usually go to Kanye for advice about my brand, my life, my image. But if it's other drama, I go to one of my best friends, Tracy [Nguyen Romulus]. She used to be Kanye's publicist, and I met her 12 years ago," she explained.

Kanye should have stood in as JFK!
