Ivanka Trump Admits She Was "Blindsided" By The "Viciousness" Of Washington

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 1:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Her father isn't making it any easier!

Ivanka Trump sat down with Fox & Friends this morning to give a rare interview about her life inside the White House, and the POTUS' daughter made it pretty clear she's still adjusting to the criticism of her life in the political spotlight.

"It is hard. And there is a level of viciousness that I was not expecting. I was not expecting the intensity of this experience, but this isn't supposed to be easy. My father's administration intends to be transformative, and we want to do big, bold things. We're looking to change the status quo. So, I didn't expect it to be easy. I think some of the distractions and some of the ferocity I was a little blind-sided by on a personal level," she confessed.

"I'm trying to keep my head down, not listen to the noise and just work really hard to make a positive impact in the lives of many people. I mean, if you want to at the end of the day if you want to think about difficult, it's the factory worker who has been laid off. Difficult is, you know, the mother who has lost a child to opioid abuse," she added.

She also took the time to rave about her husband Jared Kushner, who "was instrumental in organizing and planning" the Commander-in-Chief's first overseas visit.

"It was wildly successful. Saudi Arabia alone, if you think about the historic nature of gathering 54 Muslim and Arab leaders to talk about the goal of eradicating terrorism. Collective effort. It was amazing the leadership that my father showed, the way he was able to foster really dialogue," she boasted.

"You know, aside from what he is doing on the foreign policy front,there are the various initiatives he is focused on at home, really thinking about modernizing and innovating within government. And it just shows, you know, there is a real focus on getting things done. And getting big things done," she continued.

Is it just us, or does she seem slightly robotic? We bet she's making sure every word and detail is perfect so she doesn't get torn to shreds!

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 11:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


We seriously can't wait for this!

Kylie Jenner's new reality show Life of Kylie is set to premiere on August 6, and we just got another glimpse at what to expect in this trailer released by E!. In the clip, we see the LipKit mogul stress out about attending the Met Gala, break down in tears in the car, and much more.

"When you grow up on camera, everybody feels like they know you. There's two sides of me. There's an image that I feel constantly pressured to keep up with and then there's who I really am. That's who I want you guys to get to know," she says in the voiceover.

We wonder if she will fill us in on what happened with Tyga, or give us any juicy deets on her new romance with Travis Scott?

 

Bachelor In Paradise Halted Over Sexual Misconduct Allegations

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 11:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


This was bound to happen eventually...

Bachelor In Paradise has halted production and sent all the contestants home, after a sexual incident involving Corinne Olympios and DeMario Jackson that may or may not have been consensual, multiple outlets report.

"We have become aware of allegations of misconduct on the set of Bachelor in Paradise in Mexico,” Warner Bros. said in a statement. "We have suspended production and we are conducting a thorough investigation of these allegations. Once the investigation is complete, we will take appropriate responsive action.”

There are two different stories going around. One is that Olympios was drunk but lucid when she engaged in raunchy behavior with Jackson, and the other is that she was blacked out and unable to consent, yet producers did nothing to protect her. Apparently, the two got hot and heavy in the jaccuzzi and Jackson admitted to "licking" Olympio's genitals, as well as "rubbing, touching and fingering" her, but says she was the instigator.

Not true, says Olympios! She claims she remembers nothing, and has lawyered up. She reportedly doesn't blame Jackson, but rather the head honchos that didn't take action.

Paradise sounds like a nightmare!

 

Bella Thorne Is A Hot Mess In Fishnets And Jean Shorts

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 10:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


Someone get this girl a shower!

Bella Thorne is a self-proclaimed "white trash princess," which might explain why she decided to wear ripped jean shorts, fishnets, and messy braids on an outing in LA over the weekend. The actress is still reeling after being jilted by former fling Scott Disick, so we doubt she was happy to hear he was spotted making out with not one but two chicks in Las Vegas during a paid appearance on Saturday.

The wild 19-year-old has found her way into ex-boyfriend Gregg Sulkin's loving arms, and it sounds like her dalliance with The Lord was the catalyst that brought the two back together.

"Bella and Gregg have talked about their romantic futures. And though it would be ways down the line, if they don’t find the right person for each other, they have said they would get married. Bella is loving being reconnected with Gregg and wants to see where things go from here. He definitely is ‘Mr. Right Now,’ but even more than that, he might be an important part of her distant future" a source dished to Hollywood Life.

"Bella is realizing, thanks to her time with Scott, how cool Gregg is as a person and how nice he is to her. Bella wants to enjoy being young, but she has to be true to herself," the source added.

At least her hookup with LD got her more attention!

 

Katy Perry Rates John Mayer, Orlando Bloom, And Diplo In Bed

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 9:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


Awkward alert!

Katy Perry was forced to answer some very uncomfortable questions during a round of "Fill Your Guts Or Spill Your Guts" with James Corden, and the singer must really not like eating gross stuff, because she dished on sex with her exes!

The TV funny man asked the songstress to rate her former lovers on their bedroom skills, and she made sure to throw in a compliment before ranking them.

"They're all amazing lovers and I would have sex with all of them after I get out of this place!" she joked. John Mayer came out on top, Orlando Bloom was a close second, and poor Diplo took the bottom spot. They can't all be #1!

We've heard some wild stories about Mr. Mayer's preferences in the sack, but apparently KP was down with it!

 

Melania And Barron Trump Move Into The White House

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 8:55am PDT       By X17 Staff


We doubt they're that excited.

Melania Trump and son Barron moved into the White House on Saturday, after residing in NYC after the election so that the 11-year-old could round out his school year. The FLOTUS was rumored to have wanted to stay in the Big Apple, but she caved into the pressure to join husband Donald in Washington D.C.

Barron will attend St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland, this fall. The FLOTUS, meanwhile, will continue with her political duties as the President's wife.

"Looking forward to the memories we'll make in our new home! #movingday," she captioned a snapshot from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. shortly after her arrival.

Multiple reports claim the Slovenian model and the Prez don't sleep in the same room, so we hope they had her own suite ready to go!

 

Khloe Goes Off Birth Control, Says Boyfriend Tristan Thompson 'Wants To Have Kids'

Posted on Mon Jun 12th, 2017 8:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


Nori and Saint better get ready for another cousin!

On last night's episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Khloe dropped major baby bombshells during a visit to a fertility doctor with sister Kim. Among them? The fact that she "faked" attempts to get pregnant with ex-husband Lamar Odom, but that she's very serious about wanting to have a family with current boyfriend Tristan Thompson.

“I fake tried. I was married so I knew the circumstances weren’t the healthiest so I kept pretending I was doing it. I had to stop because there was much deeper stuff going on in our marriage … I knew it wasn’t the right situation to bring a child into … I’ve done a lot of covering up for him," she admitted in regards to her estranged spouse.

Later on in a different scene, the Good American designer goes back to the doctor's office for a check-up after going off birth control, in an effort to increase her follicle count and boost fertility. Her NBA player beau isn't scared about the possibility of getting her pregnant, though. In fact, he wants to!

“He wants to have kids now. He wants to have like five or six kids with me. … Knowing I’m not on birth control, it’s scary. It’s like a really big step. I am really excited about my future. Me and Tristan, we’re doing so well," she gushed.

We have a feeling she'll have a bun in the oven before the new year!

 

Katy Perry On Her Feud With Taylor Swift:
"I Forgive, I Forgive, I Forgive"

Posted on Sun Jun 11th, 2017 7:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


"I forgive her and I want the best for her," Katy Perry told Ariana Huffington during the journalist's Thrive Global podcast on Saturday.

Perry is promoting her new album Witness and the pair's discussion ranged from sleep to social media to ... TSwizz. And Katy said, of her infamous feud with her fellow chart-topper, it's time to "let it go":

    "I am ready to let it go. I forgive her and I’m sorry for anything I ever did, and I hope the same from her. I think it’s actually like, I think it’s time. There are bigger fish to fry, and there are real problems in the world. You know what I’m saying? And I love her, and I want the best for her. And I think she’s a fantastic songwriter, and I think that, you know, if we, both her and I, can be representatives of strong women that come together despite their differences, I think the whole world is going to go like, ‘Yeah, well we can do this.’ I don’t know. Like maybe I don’t agree with everything she does and she doesn’t agree with everything I do, but I just really truly want to come together in a place of love and forgiveness and understanding and compassion."


The end of the convo seemed to hint that Katy likely wouldn't be crossing paths with Taylor any time soon: "There’s a lot of other things out there in the world that people need to be focused on, and I truly, like, God bless her on her journey. God bless her. Honestly." Like, "Nice knowin' ya!"

Will Taylor respond?
