Selena Gomez and The Weeknd are still going strong!
If anyone doubted, these two are still together and laughing it up ... spending Friday evening at LA's The Laugh Factory taking in some hilarious stand-up.
Perhaps comedy clubbing is the new nightclubbing, as Ben Affleck and lady love Lindsay Shookus also recently spent date night at an LA-area comedy club.
Gomez, 25, and her singer beau, 27, were featured on the club's social media accounts in a pic showing the couple cuddling in the balcony of the club, laughing. The evening's lineup included Jonathan Kite of 2 Broke Girls fame, among others -- most of whom Selena indulged in selfies after the show.
The infamously low-profile couple was last seen July 25th, out and about in LA, grabbing coffee on Gomez's birthday.

The single life does a body good! At least for Ben Affleck, it does. Check out that HUGE smile on Batman's face! We caught up with Ben at the Brentwood Country Mart where he bought a gift for someone at the book store. Hmm ... coffee table hardcover for Lindsay, perhaps?
Meanwhile, Jennifer Garner, as usual, was on mommy duty with daughters Violet and Seraphina as she ran errands in the Palisades, stopping by the pharmacy for the necessities. The whole family's back in LA together ... but apart. Ben's in his Brentwood bachelor pad, which happens to be a 9000-square-foot mansion, and Jen's holding down the fort at the family home.
Sure seems like Ben's made peace with his impending divorce from Garner -- perhaps having girlfriend Lindsay to lean on has softened the blow of the separation. Jen, however, seems to be handling this new life with a business-as-usual approach, keeping her chin up for the sake of her three children.
Cute thing to note: Seraphina's paying tribute to her dad's upcoming turn as Batman with her Justice League T-shirt. Who doesn't love a superhero dad -- adorable!

Who knows what to believe these days!
Bella Thorne squeezed in a workout in Hollywood yesterday, and she wasn't her usually chatty self when our videographer asked her about Scott Disick! We wonder why?
The actress is now dating rapper Blackbear after months of a secret hookups with The Lord, and although she says she was never "sexual" with Kourtney Kardashian's ex, we think she's lying. According to a new report from Star, the pink haired beauty and LD got it on during her shoot for Liam Payne's music video!
"He arrived halfway through and Bella said she needed ‘a break. Then they locked themselves in her trailer! She told everyone to go away and carried on fooling around with Scott. It was rude, crude and lewd," a source dished to the mag.
The 19-year-old wild child sounds like she doesn't know what she wants! Blackbear might want to think twice before assuming they're in an exclusive relationship.
"She’s still single as far as she is concerned. She’s just having fun and dating around. She doesn’t want to make anything serious with anyone right now. Anyone who likes her shouldn’t get the wrong idea," a source told Hollywood Life.

What happened to not negotiating with terrorists?!
HBO has offered the hackers threatening to release Games of Thrones episodes and info $250K, and they're calling it a "bounty payment" as they scramble to get the situation under control.
"[HBO] offers the money as part of a program in which 'white-hat professionals' are rewarded for identifying cyber security flaws," the emails read, according to Variety. The email was worded in a way where they could buy time before the hackers release any sensitive data, and they also requested a full week to make the payment.
The $250K is just a fraction of "six months salary" request the hacker originally asked for, so who knows what they're going to do. Last week, they leaked a months worth of emails from HBO's vice president as well as a summary for the upcoming GOT episode.
The hackers, who claim to make $12-15 million a year, claim to have more data, including scripts, upcoming episodes of HBO shows and movies, and information damaging to HBO.
This isn't quite as bad as the Sony hacking scandal, but it definitely isn't good!

We are so happy for him!
Millon Dollar Listing New York star Fredrik Eklund is expecting twins with husband Derek Kaplan, he announced on Instagram shortly before the season finale on Thursday. It's been a long road to fatherhood for the pair, as their surrogate miscarried twins back in 2015.
"We've been blessed two times over - we're six months pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl! It was important for us to take the time to keep the news for ourselves, but now we are ready to celebrate all the love. We thank you for supporting us in this journey and your well wishes.... We are finally going to be dads! Finally! #grateful 👨â€ðŸ‘¨â€ðŸ‘§â€ðŸ‘¦," the real estate hotshot captioned the announcement.
The couple tied the knot in 2013. Eklund's South African husband has a son from a previous relationship.

Eat your heart out, John Mayer!
Jessica Simpson arrived back in LA after a trip to NYC yesterday, and the fashion mogul's giant boobs almost spilled out of her $5980 floral Gucci maxi as she made her way through the terminal. Her husband is a lucky man!
The blonde bombshell has allegedly been working on a new album, but we've yet to see or hear anything. In fact, it's pretty hard to write an article about her, because she hasn't really been doing anything noteworthy... other than running a billion dollar clothing empire.
She has said she's done having kids with husband Eric Johnson, but we have a feeling they might have one more bonus baby!

Girl power!
Lena Dunham took to Twitter yesterday to praise pal Taylor Swift for taking a stand against Denver deejay David Mueller, who she claims grabbed her bare butt during a meet-and-greet in 2013.
"Proud of @taylorswift13 for her fierce & cutting testimony & her refusal to settle for being treated like property. Her example is powerful," the Girls star tweeted.
Mueller claims he is innocent, and merely grazed her ribcage during the alleged incident. Not so, says T-Swizz!
"I am not going to allow you or your client to make it seem like this is in anyway my fault, because it isn’t. He did not touch my rib, he did not touch my arm, he did not touch my hand, he grabbed my bare ass," she told Mueller's lawyer in court.
"This is what happened, it happened to me, I know it was him. I am being blamed for the unfortunate events of his life that are a product of his decisions and not mine," she added.

It never ends!
Kylie Jenner continued her birthday celebrations at the movies last night with boyfriend Travis Scott and members of her family, and she must have enjoyed a more low key evening after her her wild surprise party on Wednesday. The reality star hid behind her blanket as she made her way into the theater, but we managed to get a peek at her new diamond necklace from her rapper beau!
Khloe brought boyfriend Tristan Thompson and Kris Jenner brought errand boy boy toy Corey Gamble, but Kim sat this one out. Kourtney also wasn't there, but that's because she's currently in Egypt with Younes Bendjima.
She's accomplished a lot in her 20 years! The brunette beauty's Kylie Cosmetics line is on track to become a billion dollar brand by the time she turns 25, she has her own reality show Life of Kylie, she's never looked better, and she finally broke free from deadbeat loser Tyga and found a real man with an actual career. That's something to celebrate!
What better way to mark the milestone than with some fresh sexy selfies?
