One Too Many? Avril Lavigne Leaves The Club With Britney Spears' Former Fling J.R. Rotem

Posted on Tue Aug 8th, 2017 10:25am PDT       By X17 Staff


Must have been a long night.

Avril Lavigne partied it up at The Nice Guy in Hollywood last night, and appeared to be a bit disheveled as she left at the end of the evening. Recognize the guy she's arm-in-arm with? Well, we do! His name is J.R. Rotem, and Britney Spears had a passionate fling with him back in the day. He's a music producer, so it's very possible they know each other that way, but it's also possible he's her new dude!

It's nice to see the "Complicated" singer out and about, after crazy conspiracy theories circulated earlier this summer claiming that the songstress had died in the early 2000s and was replaced by a look-a-like actress named Melissa Vandella.

In recent years, the Canadian beauty has been battling Lyme's disease, but word on the street is that she plans on releasing a new album later in 2017.

Tell us sk8ter girl, is this hunk your new boo?

 

Sinead O'Connor Says She's Suicidal And Living In A New Jersey Motel In Heartbreaking Facebook Video

Posted on Tue Aug 8th, 2017 9:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


This poor woman!

Sinead O'Connor took to Facebook yesterday to detail her ongoing battle with severe mental illness, and it's truly heartbreaking. The "Nothing Compares" singer revealed she's barely hanging on to her sanity, and feels terribly alone after being abandoned by her family.

"I’m now living in a Travelodge motel in the arse-end of New Jersey. I’m all by myself. And there’s absolutely nobody in my life except my doctor, my psychiatrist, the sweetest man on earth, who says I’m his hero, and that’s about the only f—ing thing keeping me alive at the moment . . . and that’s kind of pathetic," she said in the video. "And the people who are supposed to be be loving you and taking care of you are treating you like s--t," she added.

The Irish songstress was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2003 and attempted to commit suicide in 2015. She lost custody of her 13-year-old son in 2016, prompting another suicidal episode.

She must have heard all the worry about her, because she had a friend post an update to her account this morning, to assure fans that she wasn't going to take her own life.

"Hi everybody, I am posting at Sinead’s request, to let everyone who loves her know she is safe, and she is not suicidal. She is surrounded by love and receiving the best care. She asked for this to be posted knowing you are concerned for her. I won’t respond to any questions, so please understand. I hope this comforts those of you who are concerned," the message read.

We're praying for her and hope she finds peace.

 

Rob Kardashian And Blac Chyna Push Back Court Hearing While "Working Toward A Resolution"

Posted on Tue Aug 8th, 2017 8:17am PDT       By X17 Staff


Let's hope they can find some middle ground.

Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna were due in court today for a restraining order hearing, but they've decided to push that date back to September 18 in hopes that they can arrive at an agreement outside the courtroom, Us Weekly reports.

"We are working toward a resolution and wanted a little bit more time to see if we can get there. If we can't, we are ready willing and able to go forward with the hearing on September 18," Chyna's lawyer Lisa Bloom told the outlet.

The former stripper got a restraining order against Kimmy K's little bro after he went on an online rant in early July, in which he shared her nude photos, accused her of doing drugs and having sex with multiple men, and alleged he paid all her bills. They've had no contact since the order was put in place, but the one thing they're shockingly handling pretty well is shared custody of daughter Dream.

"They coparent pretty well in terms of scheduling. They split the time pretty equally based on each other’s schedule. They have two nannies that alternate, so that also makes it incredibly easy. A nanny is with Dream 100 percent of the time, even when she’s sleeping. It’s 24-hour care for Dream," a source explained to the mag.

Did anyone think this romance was going to turn out well?!

 

Church Is Working Wonders! Justin Bieber Is In An Unusually Good Mood At LAX

Posted on Mon Aug 7th, 2017 2:25pm PDT       By X17 Staff


All that praying has made him a ray of sunshine!

Justin Bieber arrived at LAX today with his pastor to catch a flight out of town, and the singer was in an usually good mood as he greeted photographers at the curb. JB just spent the last three days at the Zoe conference in LA, which was a huge gathering for his Hillsong church. Hailey Baldwin and Selena Gomez were a couple of other famous faces that attended!

The Biebs has been turning to religion to cope with mental burnout from his Purpose tour, and it appears to be working! The "Sorry" crooner apologized to his fans for pulling the plug on the remainder of his tour stops, but what we thought was interesting was his focus on becoming a better man for the sake of his future.

"Im grateful for the tours but most of all I am grateful i get to go through this life WITH YOU.! Learning and growing hasn’t always been easy but knowing I im not alone has kept me going. I have let my insecurities get the best of me at times. I let my broken relationships dictate the way I acted toward people and the way I treated them! i let bitterness, jealously and fear run my life.!!!! I am extremely blessed to have people in the past few years help me build my character back up reminding me of who I am and who I want to be!!! Reminding me my past decisions and past relationships don't dictate my future decisions and my future relationships," he wrote on Instagram.

"I want my career to be sustainable, but I also want my mind heart and soul to be sustainable. So that I can be the man I want to be, the husband I eventually want to be and the father I want to be. This message is just an opportunity for you to know my heart, I'm not expecting anyone to understand, but I do want people to have an opportunity to know where I am coming from!" he added.

He doesn't go anywhere without his God squad these days!

 

Emilia Clarke's Game Of Thrones Tweet Is Breaking The Internet!

Posted on Mon Aug 7th, 2017 2:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Game of Thrones fans are DYING over this Instagram just posted by Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys on the hit HBA show. The selfie of her and Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow, celebrates the two characters first coming together on July 30 eppisode which has left many fans waiting to see if the pair, who are unaware that they're related (Star Wars reference, anyone?), may get together romantically. Dang! What IF?!

However, Kit's character is still mourning the loss of his longtime lover Ygritte, who passed away in season 4. Ygritte was played by Rose Leslie, Kit's real-life g-friend so perhaps Kit's feelings about his character moving on are clouded by his off-screen love for Rose because last month, Harington told Us Weekly, "Ygritte is the only woman for Jon. Always. There will be no one else.”

MUST. WATCH. THIS. SUNDAY ....

Luann De Lesseps Changes Her Name On Social Media After Split From Husband Tom D'Agostino

Posted on Mon Aug 7th, 2017 1:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


She doesn't need her married name now that she's about to be divorced!

Real Housewives of New York star Luann De Lesseps has gone back to her original last name on social media just days after splitting with husband Tom D'Agostino.

"It's with great sadness that Tom & I agreed to divorce. We care for each other very much, hope you respect our privacy during this sad time!" she tweeted on August 3. "Thank you for the generous expression of warmth, kindness and understanding," she tweeted to her fans the following day.

Her co-stars think her filing came at a very calculated time! Why? Apparently, Bravo execs are currently hammering out who to re-cast and who should get the boot, and the former Countess wants to make sure she gets asked back.

"They are right now deciding which ladies to invite back and which one to fire. This split will almost guarantee that Luann is back. She has outplayed and out-maneuvered all the other ladies,” a source dished to Radar.

"Each season Luann comes up with the best story line just at the right moment. Some think the whole wedding was a press stunt. Luann has previously been demoted from being a full-time Real Housewife cast member to being a friend of the housewives. No one is ever going to remove Luann’s apple!” the source added.

At least she's getting the attention she loves so much!

 

Robert Pattinson And Katy Perry Reignite Romance Rumors With Intimate Dinner Date

Posted on Mon Aug 7th, 2017 12:45pm PDT       By X17 Staff


More than just friends, are we guys?!

Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry were spotted having an intimate dinner at the Sunset Tower hotel in West Hollywood over the weekend, and now everyone thinks they're secretly hooking up.

They've been "pals" for years, but it's very possible things recently took a romantic turn. After all, the actor told Howard Stern he's still "kind of engaged" to fiancee FKA Twigs, which totally sounds like they're basically dunzo.

We all know the "Chained to the Rhythm" songstress has a think for British dudes. She was married to Russell Brand, then she dated Orlando Bloom, and she's been flirting up a storm with Niall Horan in recent months.

R-Patz and KP would actually make a pretty cute couple!

 

Usher Accused Of Exposing Two More Women -And A Man!- To Herpes

Posted on Mon Aug 7th, 2017 12:00pm PDT       By X17 Staff


This scandal is boiling over!

Usher is being sued by two more women, as well as one man, for exposing them to herpes without telling them he had the virus, TMZ reports.

Quantasia Sharpton, one of the plaintiffs, held a news conference this morning with her lawyer Lisa Bloom, and while she says she tested negative, she still has suffered emotional distress. One of the other plaintiffs has tested positive, but it's unknown if it's the man or the woman. The unidentified male claims he had oral sex with the R&B crooner, while one of the two women alleges she had vaginal sex with him.

People have been coming out of the woodwork, ever since news broke that the Grammy winner had settled a $1.1 million lawsuit back in 2012 after giving an unidentified woman the STD.

The plaintiffs all want an unspecified amount of damages, as well as a judge's order that forces Usher to disclose his herpes diagnosis to future sex partners. He shouldn't really have any future sex partners, though, since he's been married to wife Grace Miguel since 2015.

Interestingly, Usher and his camp have been total silent on this matter.

He better get ready to pay up and wrap it up!
