Yolanda Foster was down, but she's not out!
The model momager and former
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills castmember and mother of Bella, Gigi and Anwar Hadid, is back and better than ever. While battling Lyme disease and raising three children -- all of whom are models -- the busy ex-wife of music maven David Foster will have her own TV show now -- a modeling competition!
Lifetime will air her upcoming show
Model Moms, which will "champion diverse role models†and celebrate “our evolving and complex ideas of womanhood" by putting models and their momagers through an eight-week training program that includes physical, mental, and emotional wellness, according to a press release. Each week, a $5K prize is up for grabs, and the last girl on the catwalk wins a management contract with Yolanda’s company with the possibility to be repped by IMG Models.

Layin' low and lovin' it!
Ben Affleck spent some quality time with daughter Seraphina yesterday in Brentwood, and the actor appears to be back in the swing of things following his stint in rehab. Ever since he got out of the treatment facility, the A-list star has spent almost all his time with his children, along with estranged wife Jen Garner.
The
Batman star went to rehab in 2001, before they were a couple. Alcoholism can wreak havoc on a marriage, so perhaps this is his way of showing the mother of his children that he's serious about making their relationship work. The actress has been hesitant to end things, and this could very well be what she's been waiting for to give him another shot.
The Boston-born hunk sounds like he still loves her too, because he thanked her for her support during his time in recovery.
"I have completed treatment for alcohol addiction; something I've dealt with in the past and will continue to confront. I want to live life to the fullest and be the best father I can be. I want my kids to know there is no shame in getting help when you need it, and to be a source of strength for anyone out there who needs help but is afraid to take the first step," he wrote on his Facebook page.
"I'm lucky to have the love of my family and friends, including my co-parent, Jen, who has supported me and cared for our kids as I've done the work I set out to do. This was the first of many steps being taken towards a positive recovery," he added.
Good work, Benny boy!

It looks that way!
Sofia Richie stepped out for coffee with a Zayn Malik look-a-like in Hollywood yesterday, and we have a feeling the hottie is the model's new boyfriend! Justin Bieber recently tried to flirt with her on Instagram by commenting "ur so pretty" on one of her photos, but it appears she was able to fight off his advances.
Lionel Richie's daughter is turning into quite the trendy fashionista. Between the boxer braids, the athleisure ensemble, and the Supreme bag, she's the new Kylie Jenner!

When 2 Become 1... then want to be 2 again!
Mel B has filed for divorce from husband of ten years Stephen Belafonte, multiple outlets report. According to paperwork obtained by
People, the couple officially separated on December 28.
Scary Spice has requested joint legal and physical custody of their 5-year-old daughter Madison, but has motioned to deny any form of spousal support.
The British singer and the director married in 2007, but have had a turbulent relationship. There were allegations of cheating, and the pop star was forced to deny he physically abused her in 2014.
It's been a trying start to the year for the
America's Got Talent judge, as she also just lost her father Martin to cancer at the beginning of March.
She always seemed too good for him anyways!

Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't passing up the opportunity to slam President Donald Trump after Monday saw the release of the Don's extremely low approval rating. At 37%, Trump's Galliup Poll number is the lowest in the 72 years the rating has been tallied.
Schwarzenegger beef with the Commander in Chief began when his numbers as the host of
The Apprentice weren't so hot and the show's producers let the Governator go. Arnie clapped back with a video message to Trump saying
they should trade jobs.
This time, Arnie's message to Trump is that he's a bad guy for cutting after-school programs, Meals on Wheels and the like, in his new budget proposal. He tells Trump to visit a local D.C. school where the children will be affected by his cuts -- to get out and see what's going on instead of hiding behind the White House (and Mar-a-Lago) walls.

Well this is a first!
Ivanka Trump is getting an office in the West Wing and security clearance, along with a government-issued communications device, but she won't be assuming an official role or position, her attorney Jamie Gorelick confirmed to the
AP on Monday. She will adhere to the ethics rules for government employees as well, but she won't be collecting a paycheck.
"Having an adult child of the president who is actively engaged in the work of the administration is new ground. Our view is that the conservative approach is for Ivanka to voluntarily comply with the rules that would apply if she were a government employee, even though she is not. The White House Counsel’s Office agrees with that approach," Gorelick said.
The 35-year-old businesswoman separated herself from her fashion brand in November, in order to be more actively involved in her father's administration. She's already met with Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, and German chancellor Angela Merkel since her POTUS dad took office.
Seems like she's being groomed for a life in politics!

Takin' a walk on the wild (life) side!
Justin Bieber stripped off his shirt to reveal two new giant tattoos on Instagram yesterday, and the singer apparently decided he needed a huge grizzly bear on his chest and a bald eagle on his stomach. His new ink adds to the 50+ other tats on his hot bod, and while most are religious in nature, some just make no sense. Have you seen the one on his arm that looks exactly like Selena Gomez? Bet he regrets getting that one!
In other JB news, the "Sorry" crooner is currently in New Zealand for his tour, and he posted a bizarre video of himself dancing with some random old lady to Jay-Z's "N***as In Paris" in a bar... shirtless of course! Is it bad that we're insanely jealous of this granny?!

She's got a new boo, and we've got his name!
Kate Hudson was spotted kissing a man in Pacific Palisades over the weekend, and when we went back and looked, we realized we caught them on their first date at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica last month. Her new boyfriend's name is Danny Fujikawa, and he was formerly a guitarist in a band called Chief. He also founded a record label called Lightwave Records. She's certainly got a think for music men!
The actress has been linked to countless hunks in recent months, but it seems this guy won out! First, rumors swirled that she was secretly hooking up with newly single Brad Pitt, then tongues started wagging after she was spotted flirting up a storm with Katy Perry's ex Diplo at the
Vanity Fair Oscars party.
We'll see how long this lasts!
