She's coming to the small screen!
Paris Jackson will make her acting debut on the TV hit Star tomorrow night, and she's teasing her performance in this behind-the-scenes video.
"When I heard about Star, I watched the first couple episode and fell in love. I met Lee and he was kind of interested in getting me on the show. This role is really opposite to me and for it being my first on-camera acting, I think it's a good way for me to show my acting capabilities," she says in the segment.
So what's her role?
"A social media photographer chick who's really into herself. She's just the bossiest chick int he world and doesn't care about what anybody thinks," she explains.
Michael Jackson's daughter had a great time on set, and was welcomed with open arms by the cast despite being a rookie.
"Everybody was so nice. The girls are amazing to work with. The second they saw me in hair and makeup, each one of them welcomed me. It was nice being welcomed so quickly," she gushed.

She's a movie star! Sort of...
Kim Kardashian filmed the rest of her cameo for Ocean's Eight at City Hall in downtown LA yesterday, and the reality star slipped back into the sheer gown she was spotted wearing when she filmed the first part back in January in NYC. The flick centers around a jewelry heist at a fake Met Gala event, and naturally the reality star is playing herself. Talk about life imitating art!
The comedy features Sandra Bullock, Anne Hathaway, Rihanna, Cate Blanchett, Sarah Paulson, Mindy Kaling, Helena Bonham Carter and rapper-comedian Awkwafina as the main characters, with appearances by Matt Damon, George Clooney, James Corden, Katie Holmes, Adriana Lima, Anna Wintour and Dakota Fanning.
She's gotten plenty of practice acting on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, so she should be an old pro at this point!

It's still hard for us to believe he's gone.
George Michael died from natural causes on Christmas Day, the coroner has ruled. The "Faith" crooner's heart and liver were to blame for his untimely passing at the age of 53.
"As there is a confirmed natural cause of death, being dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and fatty liver, the investigation is being discontinued and there is no need for an inquest or any further enquiries," Darren Salter, senior coroner for Oxfordshire, said in a statement. "No further updates will be provided and the family requests the media and public respect their privacy."
The icon's initial autopsy, conducted in late December, was inconclusive and his death was ruled "unexplained but not suspicious."
His boyfriend Fadi Fawaz was the one who discovered the hit maker's body. "It’s an xmas I will never forget finding your partner dead peacefully in bed first thing in the morning.. I will never stop missing you xx," he tweeted at the time.

Track suits were flying!
Louis Tomlinson was arrested after a fight with a photographer at LAX on Friday, and now there's video of the chaotic scene. Apparently, the One Direction heartthrob got physical with the shutterbug after a verbal argument escalated, and the photographer had to get medical care for his injuries.
"[Tomlinson] grabbed [the paparazzo] by his lower leg and knocked him on the ground. He hit his head on the floor. He was transported to the hospital. There were a lot of people around watching it," an LAX officer told People.
Making matters worse, a girl was videotaping the whole incident and Tomlinson's girlfriend Eleanor Calder got into with her, prompting the chart topper to intervene and throw the girl to the ground in defense of his lady love.
"This is not the first or last time that a paparazzi has created an altercation with a celebrity. While the altercation was going on with the paparazzi, three other individuals were attacking his girlfriend during the incident and he came to her defense," his lawyer Marty Singer said in a statement.
Now the woman involved, named Ana Becerra, claims she could have died from a brain hemorrhage and plans to press charges.
"I'm a b***h for getting hit by a celebrity? Literally I hit my head on the ground a little bit harder I could have an cerebral haemorrhage. #WeSupportLouis is actually trending he abused a girl!! I COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY DIED. A girl goes up to me and grabs my phone because she thinks I am filming her boyfriend harassing a person, I want the phone back so I follow her and she backs into a corner. She hides the phone back so I follow her and she backs into a corner and when I finally get it her psycho ass boyfriends (sic) grabs me and makes me fall and I grabbed the girls shirt trying not to fall, and we land on the ground where the boyfriend punches me in the eye and when he stands up he knees me in the stomach," Becerra tweeted about the incident.
The British boybander was arrested and booked on misdemeanor battery charges. Due to the fact it's a misdemeanor, Tomlinson's immigration visa is not expected to be affected. He is due in court on March 29.

We can't wait for this!
The Real Housewives of New York City season 9 trailer was just released, and it's even crazier than last season if that's possible! Sonja Morgan's new "house guest" Tinsley Mortimer joins the cast, and Jill Zarin makes an unexpected return.
Then of course, there's the Countess Luann De Lesseps. The statement necklace-loving brunette is shown wedding dress shopping for her nuptials to cheating now-husband Tom D'Agostino Jr., and the ladies bring up some more fresh secrets about their controversial relationship.
Without a doubt the funniest scenes come from the girls hysterically reacting to Donald Trump's presidential win.
There's vacations, skinny dipping, fighting and a whole lotta drinking thrown in the mix, and we couldn't thank Andy Cohen enough for this franchise!

Her bump is getting bigger by the day!
Beyonce and Jay Z took daughter Blue Ivy to the Beauty and the Beast premiere in Hollywood last Thursday, and now the "Lemonade" songstress is sharing some behind-the-scenes snapshots from their family night out. Bey glowed in an emerald green dress maxi dress as her hubby cradled her belly and their little girl looked on. Cute!
We're glad the legendary diva felt up to a night on the town, because rumor has it she's been experiencing some extreme morning sickness due to having two buns in the oven.
"Beyonce is suffering the worst morning sickness ever this time round. In fact, it’s not just in the mornings she’s being sick though, it’s all throughout the day! She constantly feels off balance, and dizzy, and like she’s going to be sick, and actually is several times a day… in the afternoon, evening and nighttime too," a source dished to Hollywood Life.
Her rapper beau is making sure he's taking the best care of her, though.
"Jay Z is being super supportive, and really amazing. He’s basically at her beck and call and treating her like a princess. Jay’s done a ton of research into what helps with the sickness and he’s making Bey lots of fresh lemon water to drink, and feeding her apples and peanut butter. She’s still feeling sick a lot, but it does seem to help. He’s also giving her foot massages to help with the terrible aches and pains she’s suffering. Beyonce really can’t wait for the twins to arrive, she’s not enjoying pregnancy this time around at all," the source added.
Insiders are saying the Grammy winner is due in June, so she only has a couple more months of discomfort to go!

We're surprised he was allowed to spend time with them alone!
Scott Disick took son Mason and daughter Penelope toy shopping in Calabasas yesterday, and it's good the hard partying reality star is getting back to parenting, because the only thing he was focused on a month ago was hooking up with hot chicks in Miami!
The only reason LD was allowed to look after the kids was probably because Kourtney was in Palm Springs with sisters Kim and Khloe. In fact, the mother-of-three has been hinting she will keep their young ones from The Lord unless he cleans up his act.
"[Kourtney] threatened Scott that she would take the kids away from him because he is being an awful father lately," a source dished to Radar. "Not only is Scott continuing to drink and party, but he is just never there. Kourtney warned him that if he relapsed again that she would go after full custody," the source added.
Sadly, the kiddos are aware of their father's bad behavior.
“Unfortunately, it is Mason and Penelope that are really suffering because they are constantly asking, ‘where is daddy’, and they are both at the age that Kourtney cannot lie to them anymore. She is telling them straight up that their dad is not around because he is drinking, and this just breaks their little hearts,†the insider revealed.
Maybe Kourt should have thought of this before getting pregnant with the Heineken-loving bad boy!

Taking a walk on the dark side!
Bella Hadid stopped by the Chanel offices in Paris yesterday in a goth-chic ensemble, and we don't know a lot of people that can pull off this look, but she most definitely can! The supermodel has been strutting her stuff down the runway for practically every fashion house, and she recently had an awkward run-in with ex The Weeknd at the H&M Studio show.
Speaking of the "Starboy" crooner, it sounds like his new romance with Selena Gomez is getting pretty serious! The "Come & Get" songstress even thinks he could be her happily ever after.
"[Selena Gomez] says that [Abel Tesfaye] is the first boyfriend she’s had that she could seriously see herself marrying and having kids with. It just clicks between them, and everything is perfect. Abel is her best friend. [Selena] knows it’s still early days, but she’s never felt this way about someone before. It’s just, right. All her friends are joking about going to buy new dresses for their wedding, everyone thinks he really could be the one," a source dished to Hollywood Life.
"[Selena Gomez] plans on meeting the Weeknd’s family in May, when he performs in his hometown Toronto. [She’s] super excited to meet his mom and the rest of his family," the source added.
We bet Bella wishes they didn't all run in the same circles!
