Get your engines ready!
Vin Diesel and Charlize Theron walked the red carpet for the premiere of Fast & Furious 8 in Paris last night, and they look like they already know it's going to be a massive hit!
The two share a smooch in the flick, and the actor recently boasted that it was one of the perks of his role. "Charlize Theron is not a bad kissing partner to have. There are worse things that can happen to you. Do I know she enjoyed it? Oh, my God, yeah," he told USA Today.
One co-star he feels less enthusiastic about? The Rock! Apparently, the two action stars don't get along, and are being kept apart on the press tour, according to the Hollywood Reporter. "They're keeping them separated as much as possible," an insider dished to the outlet.

She's undoubtedly mortified!
Late night hosts couldn't help but poke fun at Kendall Jenner's controversial Pepsi ad on their shows last night, but let's hope she didn't see it, as she took off for Paris earlier in the day.
The supermodel and soda company were criticized for trivializing the Black Lives Matter movement with their protest commercial, prompting the clip to be pulled and an apology to be issued to poor Kenny.
Here are some of the best quotes from our favorite TV funny guys' monologues:
Stephen Colbert: "We have a deeply divided nation, but today it seems like everyone has come to join the protest against the new protest ad from Pepsi. So far we don’t know what has caused all of America’s hot extras to take the streets. But I’m guessing it’s a protest for Attractive Lives Matter. At first, this was a movement without a leader, until the protest route just happened to pass by Kendall Jenner doing a fashion shoot for, apparently, aluminum siding. Then she makes eye contact with a cute boy who brought his cello to a protest. This prompts her to rip off her blonde wig, give it to her assistant and join the conversation."
Jimmy Kimmel: "The fact that this somehow made it through — I can’t imagine how many meetings, and edits, and pitches, and then got the thumbs-up from who knows how many people — is absolutely mind-boggling."
Trevor Noah: "This is so sad. Once again we see a Kardashian in a video being put in an awkward position."
For her part, the cat walker has stayed silent on the matter, but it sounds like she's losing her marbles behind the scenes.
"Kendall would have been absolutely mortified. Anything offensive is just not her. She means well, always. She would have called Kris SO upset and freaking out. And then Kris would go into mom mode and approach it like, ‘Let’s do something about this, NOW,’†a source dished to People.

Khloe Kardashian is feeling herself!
The sexy blonde worked it HARD at the studio Wednesday as she dressed in comfy sweats with a fierce lace teddy underneath! And no, she did NOT zip up that hoodie - she left it wiiiiiide open, y'all, and we got an eyeful!
After shooting some to-camera pieces for Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the braided beauty headed to the family clothing boutique Dash for a Good American promotion. Khloe sipped on Champagne to celebrate the success of her denim line which raked in an unimaginable $1 million its first day out. A million dollars in a day! I'd be drinking Champagne, too!

Lionsgate
This is what you call a rotten tomato, folks ...
Shia LaBeouf's latest cinematic effort, Man Down, a film about a soldier returning from Afghanistan who suffers from PTSD, made $8.70 in England on opening day -- yep, just one person bought a ticket to the film playing in a single theater in London.
The manager of the theater says sales have tripled since The Hollywood Reporter published a story about the film flopping -- so, in other words, three tickets were then sold.
Man Down, co-staring Kate Mara, premiered in December in the US and raked in $454,490. Damn! Shia may want to go back to doing anti-Trump art installations -- he seems a bit more successful in that arena!

Damage control!
Pepsi and Kendall Jenner got major backlash over their new commercial, which critics claim exploits the Black Lives Matter movement, and so the soda company has decided to pull the ad and apologize to the supermodel for dragging her into the mess.
“Pepsi was trying to project a global message of unity, peace and understanding. Clearly, we missed the mark, and we apologize. We did not intend to make light of any serious issue. We are pulling the content and halting any further rollout. We also apologize for putting Kendall Jenner in this position," they said in a statement announcing the move.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has yet to comment on the controversy, but has wiped her social media accounts of all references and promotions of the ad.
Momager Kris Jenner didn't really think this one through, it seems!

She wants to be rolling in the diapers!
Adele wants another baby with husband Simon Konecki, and the couple have already started getting down to business on their new project, Life & Style reports.
"Adele is planning on having a second child and is actively trying to get pregnant," a source dished to the mag.
The Grammy winner and her beau are looking at putting down roots in Cali to raise their expanding family. "Adele has spent a lot of time in LA over the years and thinks it is the perfect home base. California feels like a welcoming place," the source added.
It doesn't hurt that close pal Bey has also relocated to the City of Angels!
"She loves that she’d be closer to her friend Beyonce. With both of them in LA, Angelo and Blue [Ivy, 5] can have playdates together all the time!†the insider revealed.
Now it makes sense why she recently admitted she might quit touring. "I don’t know if I will ever tour again. The only reason I’ve toured is you. I’m not sure if touring is my bag. My greatest accomplishment in my career is this tour," she told the crowd at one of her concerts.

Uh oh!
Ben Affleck is allegedly texting Christine Ouzounian, the family nanny he had an affair with shortly after separating from Jennifer Garner, The National Enquirer reports.
Ouzounian has been "going to places where she knows he hangs out. She's trying to rekindle something!" a source dished to the outlet.
It's not like the Batman star would be eager for this info to get out, so if we had to guess, Ouzounian ran to the gossip mag and spilled the beans in hopes of making sure any reconciliation between the actor and his wife gets torpedoed.
Although the A-list hunk has never commented on the fling, Jen G did address it in during an interview with Vanity Fair.
"Let me just tell you something. We had been separated for months before I ever heard about the nanny. She had nothing to with our decision to divorce. She was not a part of the equation. Bad judgment? Yes. It's not great for your kids for [a nanny] to disappear from their lives. I have had to have conversations [with my children] about the meaning of 'scandal,'" she explained.

We'd recognize her anywhere, though!
Khloe Kardashian landed back in LA after spending some time in Cleveland with boyfriend Tristan Thompson, and the reality star has really got this long distance relationship traveling thing down! The reality star knows how to dress for a flight, and this time she wore a camo jacket, sweats, and Yeezy sneakers.
We wonder if the Revenge Body star is back in town to console Kylie Jenner over her breakup with Tyga? According to a new report, the K clan differs in their opinions on what the LipKit mogul should do about her relationship with the deadbeat rapper.
"There’s serious drama between the sisters over Kylie & Tyga. While Kim and Kris are in Kylie’s ear telling her to dump him, Khloe and Kourtney are telling her to make it work! Kim and Kris don’t think Kylie should listen to her other sisters, and point out that Khloe’s relationships don’t last longer than 6 months and that Kourt and Scott [Disick] are a hot mess of a couple,†a source dished to Hollywood Life.
"Khloe and Kourtney feel a little salty about that shade but are telling Kylie that when it comes to love, logic doesn’t stand a chance. No doubt Kourtney and Scott love one another and it’s obvious. They’ll always be together and their situation works for them! Khloe is having the time of her life with Tristan Thompson and they’re making it work. Everyone wants Kylie to be happy and whether she wants to stay with T is ultimately her decision," the source added.
Khlo knows a thing or two about troubled romances!
