Kim K Channels Cher For Harper's Bazaar Arabia

Did she not learn her lesson about posing as icons with that Jackie O shoot?

Kim Kardashian channeled fellow Armenian diva Cher for the new Harper's Bazaar Arabia issue, and we've gotta admit she does look exactly like the "Turn Back Time" songstress with that long straight hair and those eyelashes.

The reality star is gearing up to launch a fragrance specifically tailored towards people in the region. "I’ve always wanted to create a scent that the women in the Middle East would really like. I’ve never had a scent that’s exclusive for the Middle East," she explained to the mag.

You'd think Kimmy K would be slowing down career-wise now that she has kids, but we have a feeling she wants to make as much money as she can while she's still hot. Not only that, but with Kanye's pending lawsuit, anything could happen!

Yeezy's insurers are refusing to pay out the $10 million he lost when he canceled his Saint Pablo tour, citing illegal drug use and alcohol abuse. They say his breakdown was brought on by substances, and therefore they aren't obligated to pay a dime due to a clause in the contract.

We've gotta hand it to her for being a hustler!

 

Gwyneth Paltrow Opens Up About Failed Romances With Brad Pitt And Ben Affleck

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 12:35pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Who hasn't she dated?!

Gwyneth Paltrow has basically romanced every A-list hottie in Hollywood, but she's been unable to find lasting love with any of them. The reason? She's bad at relationships, according to her! The Goop queen was engaged to Brad Pitt, then Ben Affleck, then settled down with Chris Martin before consciously uncoupling in 2014.

"I've f***ed up so many relationships. I'm actually a pretty good friend, and a good sister and daughter and mother, but I'm at my potentially most vulnerable and f***ed up in the romantic slice of the pie," she admitted on Girlboss radio.

"It's taken me a lot of work to get to the place where I have a good romantic relationship," she added.

The blonde beauty has been dating American Horror Story producer Brad Falchuck since her split from the Coldplay frontman, and it sounds like she's figured out the secrets to commitment.

"Success to me is relationships that function really well. Where there is a beautiful feedback loop between people. I think without relationships of quality, you are not a successful person. So, if you don't have a good relationship with your partner, your children, your best friends, then it's really hard to claim success," she confessed.

She might get male attention easier than most, but when she started Goop, she found out the hard way that her name and pretty face weren't exactly enough for some people.

"So, I go into the room, and for the first 90 seconds, I'm Gwyneth Paltrow. And they're like 'Oh my god, my wife loves you, I love The Royal Tenenbaums,' whatever. And then, about 90 seconds later, I'm just getting grilled, like anyone else. And actually, it was such a beautiful chapter of my life when I started raising my Series A, because it knocked me down so many pegs. I was like, 'Oh, I'm like no one. I'm nothing. This sh** is real.' I have to know the most granular aspects of my business and be able to defend it. The celebrity just completely drains out of the room. It's irrelevant," she explained of attracting investors to launch her business.

This is the most humble we've ever heard her sound!

 

Ben Affleck Is Supported By Color Coordinated Girlfriend Lindsay Shookus At A Photoshoot

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 12:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Do they ever spend time apart?!

Ben Affleck got all decked out in a red leather jacket for a photoshoot at a private residence in LA yesterday, and not only did girlfriend Lindsay Shookus tag along, but she made sure she color coordinated with her man! These two have been inseparable since going public with their romance, but there are some hurdles they've yet to jump.

For starters, the SNL producer is based in New York and her young daughter lives there with her ex, then there's the fact that the actor's three kids with Jennifer Garner are reportedly less than enthusiastic about welcoming her into their family.

"They are definitely on Team Mom. Violet and Sera are the most vocal about it. It hurts when they say they wont be nice to his girlfriend. He’d never compromise his relationship with his kids, but he feels entitled to his own happiness," a source dished to OK!.

It's not just his brood that the blonde beauty is worried about, though! She's also anxious about meeting the rest of his tight-knit clan, who were famously close with his ex-wife.

“Lindsay’s been avoiding this so far, but meeting Ben’s mom, his brother Casey and the extended family is something’s she’s going to have to face. She’s terrified at facing their questions on how she and Ben met and fell in love. But she’s starting to run out of excuses – and Ben’s family members are beginning to wonder what’s up," another source told Radar.

This is what happens when you have an affair!

 

Kathy Griffin Retracts Apology Over That Trump Severed Head Photo

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 11:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


She's not playing nice anymore!

Kathy Griffin has gotten so much backlash for that photo of her posing with a Donald Trump-esque severed head, and while she initially fell on her sword, now she's officially over saying sorry!

The comedienne appeared on Australia's Sunrise show to promote her upcoming international tour, and got defensive when host Samantha Armytage asked if her actions were out of line in regards to the POTUS.

"You're full of c***. Stop acting like my little picture is more important than talking about the actual atrocities that the president of the United States is committing," she fired back.

"So the picture happened, the outrage was ridiculous, I made an apology, and now in light of all the crazy stuff that he (Trump) and this administration are doing... He's unhinged. I'm no longer sorry," she added.

The fallout over her bad joke has been pretty epic. She was fired from hosting CNN's New Year's Eve Celebration, many of comedy shows were canceled, her friendship with Anderson Cooper was ruined, and she was investigated by the Secret Service... all over a stupid photo!

Personally, we're Team Kathy! There are bigger things going on in the world!

 

Kourtney Kardashian Wears A Sweatsuit During The Heat Wave

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 10:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


Is she nuts?!

Kourtney Kardashian took son Mason and daughter Penelope to Toys R Us yesterday to pick up some water guns, and we can't believe she was wearing a sweatsuit. California is in the middle of a heat wave! We guess this is what you call privilege, because she probably goes from one air conditioned space to another all day long, so she doesn't need to plan her outfits accordingly.

We've gotta hand it to Kourt and her sisters for donating $500K to the Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. Her charitable contribution makes us feel inclined to put up with more of her bikini selfies. The reality star works out daily with sister Khloe, and can't stop showing off the results of her slim down on Instagram.

The mother-of-three has a pretty tight tushy these days! Boyfriend Younes Bendjima is a lucky man!

tip of the day: don't forget to stretch 😝

Ronda Rousey Marries Travis Browne In Hawaii

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 9:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


She took a break from the ring to get a ring!

Ronda Rousey married boyfriend Travis Browne over the weekend in Hawaii, and she just shared some sweet snapshots of their big day on her Instagram.

Her new husband couldn't help but gush about his bride, either! "What an amazing day!! She is so perfect in every way! She makes me so happy! She is my other half! I Love You @rondarousey #browsey2017," he captioned one of the photos.

The pair got engaged in April after two years of dating, and the UFC champ shared their proposal story on Live! With Kelly and Ryan in July.

"It was actually after heavy rain and we were under this waterfall. Apparently he had this whole speech prepared, but I just went down into bullet points in the moment. So he pulls out the ring and I’m already like, ‘Uh huh’ before he even says anything. [He’s] like, ‘Okay, we’re in New Zealand, we’re under a waterfall, will you marry me?’" she revealed.

Congrats lovebirds!

 

Blac Chyna And Boyfriend Mechie Put Those Breakup Rumors To Rest

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 8:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


In fact, they couldn't help but chuckle when we asked if they were going to get engaged!

Blac Chyna rocked a blonde wig and sported some midriff for a date with boyfriend Mechie yesterday in LA, and it seems like she's letting their togetherness do the talking. Just the other week, it was reported the video vixen had dumped the unknown rapper because of his flirting with other women, but we guess that's not the case!

Rob Kardashian has all but disappeared since BC slapped him with a restraining order, and now her mom is speaking out about all their drama!

"Rob, he has no idea actually of the extent of what he actually did from the beginning. From calling [Chyna] names, to accusing her of [cheating with] her baby's dad. He wouldn't want her to talk to him. A lot of things. And she would actually appease this guy. At the end of the day, he's gonna be Rob Kardashian, she's gonna be Blac Chyna, and I'm gonna be Tokyo Toni," she told The Fam In The Morning radio show.

"She wasn't cheating on Rob at all. It's all internet rumors. A woman of Chyna's status, she can not be around people that aren't strong mentally, physically. She can't do it. It's a trust issue that [Rob] has, not Chyna — mind you, she's the female," she added.

Are we the only ones that think Chyna's choice in men is super weird?

 

Joel Osteen Responds To Claims That He Closed His Church Doors On Hurricane Harvey Victims

Posted on Wed Aug 30th, 2017 8:05am PDT       By X17 Staff


Not so fast!

Pastor Joel Osteen responded to claims that he turned his back on evacuees and closed the doors to his Lakewood megachurch after Hurricane Harvey hit on Today this morning, and he says it was basically a case of misunderstanding just how many people needed help.

"Our church doors have always been open. In fact, we took people in right when the water started to recede, which was a day or two after the big storm hit. We work very closely with the city, four miles down the road the city established it's biggest shelter with room for thousands with beds, with kitchen supplies, with everything they need, security. They didn't need us as a shelter right then. And we coordinate with them all the time," he told Savannah Guthrie.

"If we needed to be a shelter we would have certainly been a shelter right when they first asked. But once they filled up, never dreaming we'd have this many displaced people, they asked us to be a shelter. And we said, 'Hey, we'd love to be a shelter.' That's what Lakewood is all about. I think this notion that somehow we would turn people away or that we weren't here for the city is as false as can be," he added.

We're inclined to believe him!
