Robert Pattinson Declined To Masturbate A Dog For His New Movie, Praised By PETA

Posted on Fri Aug 4th, 2017 12:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


This is all just too much!

Robert Pattinson revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night that he was asked to masturbate a dog for one of the scenes in his upcoming movie Good Time, and he respectfully declined.

"Oh, God, I don’t know if I can say this. There’s a lot of things in this movie which really cross the line of reality. It’s not even on the line, it’s way beyond the line. There was initially this scene — I don’t think I should say this — but it’s like, my character, Connie, has this affinity with dogs. He thinks he is a dog in a previous life and he thinks he has control over animals and stuff," he explained.

" The director was like, ‘Just do it for real, man! Don’t be a p–!’ And then the dog’s owner was like, ‘Well, he’s a breeder, I mean, you can.’ He’s like, ‘You just gotta massage the inside of his thighs.' I didn’t agree to do the real one, so we made a fake red rocket. It was fun. It’ll be on the DVD extras," he added.

PETA praised the British hunk for his decision, saying the sex act on the animal would be on par with child molestation.

R-Patz isn't down with bestiality, and we don't blame him!

 

Angelina Jolie Is Pissed At Vanity Fair For Article Claiming She Teased Cambodian Children With Money During Casting Process

Posted on Fri Aug 4th, 2017 11:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


So what's the real story?

Angelina Jolie was forced to issue a denial after a recent Vanity Fair article claimed she teased Cambodian children with money during the casting process for her upcoming movie First They Killed My Father.

The mag detailed the "disturbing" audition practice, where directors allegedly organized a "game" of "putting money on a table" and asking impoverished children to "to think of something [they] needed the money for" before snatching it away and watching their reactions.

"I am upset that a pretend exercise in an improvisation, from an actual scene in the film, has been written about as if it was a real scenario. The suggestion that real money was taken from a child during an audition is false and upsetting. I would be outraged myself if this had happened," the Oscar winner said in a statement.

Vanity Fair is standing by their story, and backed it up by releasing transcripts from the interview.

"We had this game where it would be — and I wasn't there and they didn't know what they were really doing. They kind of said, 'Oh, a camera's coming up and we want to play a game with you.' And the game for that character was 'We're going to put some money on the table. Think of something that you need that money for.' Sometimes it was money, sometimes it was a cookie. ... 'And then take it.' And then we would catch them. 'We're going to catch you, and we'd like you to try to lie that you didn't have it," she explained during the sit-down.

Sareum Srey Moch, the child actress chosen for the role, became "overwhelmed with emotion," which caught the director's eye. "And I don't think she or her family would mind me saying when she was later asked what that money was for, she said her grandfather died and they didn't have enough money for a nice funeral," Jolie revealed.

This seems like kind of a big deal over nothing. Watch the trailer for the flick below!

 

Report: Luann D'Agostino's RHONY Co-Stars Think She Timed Divorce Filing To Stay On The Show

Posted on Fri Aug 4th, 2017 10:40am PDT       By X17 Staff


We wouldn't be surprised!

Luann D'Agostino announced her decision to divorce husband Tom yesterday, and her Real Housewives of New York 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.

Besides Tom's reported serial cheating, Luann's kids allegedly "hated" the businessman and had a blowout fight with him just weeks before the split.

Money can't buy you class, but divorce can get you ratings!

Justin Bieber Rolls With His Pastor To His White T-Shirt Launch

Posted on Fri Aug 4th, 2017 9:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


Music isn't his top priority anymore!

Justin Bieber attended his Hanes x Karla white t-shirt launch at Maxfields in West Hollywood last night, and had his entourage of church buddies on hand for moral support. The singer collaborated with his stylist to make the perfect tee for only $30, and we guess fashion and God are more important than performing at this point in his life.

JB left the event with his pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. and headed over to Catch to dine with pastor Carl Lentz. Both Wilkerson Jr. and Lentz are part of Hillsong church, which has taken The Biebs under its wing and guided his spiritual awakening in recent months.

There's a lot of speculation that the "Sorry" crooner was urged to cancel his Purpose tour by the church, but they say that's totally false. Rumors are also swirling that the Canadian pop star is fast becoming the Tom Cruise of Hillsong, but sources tell us Bieber's dedication to religion is solely his own.

A source tells X17:
    "Justin has always been religious, but he went through a period of years where he lost connection with God. He was hanging out with bad influences like Lil Za, egging his neighbors homes, and acting like a total brat. He recognized it, and turned to people like Carl and Rich to guide him. He feels like they're his genuine friends who could care less about his fame, and he looks to them for advice. Being famous can be incredibly isolating, and he feels like he's found a home in the church."

We're surprised his church services haven't been flooded by Beliebers, since we all know where to find him these days!

 

Chris Cornell's Daughter Sings Tribute To Late Father And His Pal Chester Bennington On GMA

Posted on Fri Aug 4th, 2017 8:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


So sad!

Chris Cornell's daughter Toni paid tribute to her late father and his pal Chester Bennington with a moving performance on GMA this morning, and we have no idea how the pre-teen found the strength just months after losing her dad. Cornell committed suicide three months ago, and Bennington took his own life just two weeks ago on what would have been Cornell's 53rd birthday.

The 12-year-old sang Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” alongside OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder on the morning show, and a lot of the audience was moved to tears. "It’s an honor to perform this for my dad and Chester and to sing for them," she told the hosts.

The little girl has been dealing with the tragedy in surprisingly adult ways. Just a month after the Audioslave frontman hanged himself in his hotel room, Toni penned a letter to him for Father's Day.

"Let me start by saying how much I love you and how much you mean to me,. You are my idol, someone I’ve always looked up to. You were always there for me. You pushed me forward every day, and you still do. Whenever I cry or feel like there’s no way I can go on, I hear your voice, ‘Don’t sit worrying peanut. Worry is a waste of time, I’m ok.’ I always took what you said to heart. Probably because everything you said was so smart," she wrote.

Such grace amid unbelievable loss.

Everyone saw this coming except for her!

Real Housewives of New York star Luann D'Agostino, commonly known as The Countess, has filed for divorce from husband Tom after just eight months of marriage.

"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 this morning after the news broke.

Their rocky relationship has been a major plot line on the Bravo series, and all of her co-stars tried to warn her about D'Agostino's wandering eye before they tied the knot on New Year's Eve in Palm Beach. D'Agostino has been caught cheating on multiple occasions, but Luann chose to turn the other cheek.

"He screwed up. What he did was wrong ... he did the wrong thing, and he totally recognizes that. I know in my heart of hearts that he loves me," she told People at the time.

Who is she going to make eggs a la francais for now?!

Here's your daily dose of awfulness.

Danielle "Cash Me Outside" Bregoli landed at LAX yesterday and was her typical disrespectful self, and at one point she even threatened to get physical with the shutterbugs. "If I break one of your cameras you can't sue me," she warned as she made her way thru the terminal. What a classy chick!

The 14-year-old viral sensation should keep her hands to herself if she doesn't want to end up in the slammer.

She just got a lucky break in court and copped a plea deal for multiple charges, including grand theft, possession of marijuana, and filing a false police report. She is now on five years probation, but something tells us she's not going to be able to stay out of trouble!
