Naked is back!
Playboy magazine in bringing back nude photographer after a temporary ban on the X-rated content. Hugh Hefner's son Cooper wrote in a statement, on Monday: "I'll be the first to admit that the way in which the magazine portrayed nudity was dated, but removing it entirely was a mistake. Nudity was never the problem because nudity isn't a problem. Today we're taking our identity back and reclaiming who we are."
Cooper, chief creative officer of the publication, went on to say, in the statement published on the brand's web site: "This is a remarkably special moment personally and professionally that I get to share this issue of Playboy magazine with my dad, as well as with readers. It is a reflection of how the brand can best connect with my generation and generations to come."

Kim Kardashian had a police escort as she jetted off to see her man, yesterday -- taking a private jet from the Van Nuys airport headed to New York for Kanye's Yeezy Season 5 fashion show.
The show has been kept under wraps -- the locations, the theme, the invites -- and isn't being held in a traditional New York Fashion Week venue. He's done it before -- remember Madison Square Gardens and his Life of Pablo album drop at the same event?
Fans are speculating Kanye will use the show, scheduled for Wednesday, to release new music again, but it's anyone's guess at this point. One can only hope!

We wonder if she said this before or after she found out he had moved on with Selena Gomez!
Bella Hadid and The Weeknd broke up last November after two years together, but the model has largely stayed quiet on their split until now. The cat walker admits in the new Teen Vogue, however, that the end of their relationship was painful but she has nothing but fond feelings for the "Starboy" crooner.
"It was my first breakup … and so public. As an outsider, you might think I handled it so well, but it’s always in your heart, and you always feel it very heavily. It’ll be hard for a while. Love hurts, but you have to pull through," she confessed.
"But I’ll always respect him, and I’ll always love him. Sometimes you want to be sad about it or handle it differently, but at the end of the day, you never want to burn a bridge that you’ve fought so hard to build," she added.
They should get back together once the Canadian hit maker and the "Come & Get It" songstress' fling fizzles out!

She doesn't seem to bothered, but the rest of the Internet is!
Britney Spears skipped the Grammys to kick back by a pool in her bikini in Malibu, but she still managed to make headlines, because Katy Perry took a shot at her with a reference to her 2007 mental breakdown.
"There was a pause in the music for a little while," Ryan Seacrest said to the "Roar" songstress during a pre-Grammy interview. "Yeah that's called taking care of your mental health," she quipped. "How'd that go?" he asked, to which she replied: "Fantastic! And I haven't shaved my head yet!"
Die-hard Brit Brit fans were pissed, and the hashtag #KatyPerryIsOverParty quickly began trending.
"Um... @katyperry mocked the mental illness of someone who went through a really dark time. That wasn't cool. At. All," one Twitter user wrote. "Joking about mental illnesses isn't funny, it never has been funny, it never will be funny, stop saying it's 'a joke'," another wrote.
Nobody messes with the pop princess and gets away with it!

Just in time for the holiday!
Khloe Kardashian caught a flight out of LAX today, and the reality star is headed to Cleveland to spend Valentine's Day with boyfriend Tristan Thompson. The E! starlet has been spending the majority of her time in the midwest to make her long distance relationship work, and it seems this romance could go the distance.
So what does she plan on doing to spoil her man on the year's most romantic day?
"He actually has a game on Valentine’s Day, so I will be with him after the game. I’ll probably, you know, cook dinner… have food waiting for him when he gets home. Maybe look a little sexy!†she told Ellen during an appearance on her talk show Monday.
"I love to cook! Oh my gosh, yeah. I cook not healthy meals. I like big, hearty, fun meals. Every Sunday I try to do something I’ve never done before," she added.
We wonder if the NBA star will pop the question? We think he might!

It's been a bad month for the OC actress!
Mischa Barton crashed a U-Haul into her new apartment building on Saturday after misjudging the carport height, TMZ reports. "The whole thing looks like it’s gonna fall through. Oh no, this is really bad. Everything I own is in this U-Haul," the star can be heard saying in video from the incident.
The 31-year-old moved out of her old place on Wednesday, and we're not that surprised, given that one of her neighbors leaked the video of her having the breakdown that led to her recent hospitalization. The TV star explained away the concerning incident by revealing that she had been slipped the date rape drug GHB.
“On the evening of the 25th, I went out with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday. While having drinks, I realized that something was not right as my behavior was becoming erratic and continued to intensify over the next several hours,†she told People.
"I voluntarily went to get professional help, and I was informed by their staff that I had been given GHB. After an overnight stay, I am home and doing well. I would like to extend a big thanks of gratitude to the professionals at Cedars-Sinai for their great care and professionalism. This is a lesson to all young women out there, be aware of your surroundings," she added.
We hope she's OK and not too proud to reach out to loved ones if she needs help.

She's her biggest fan!
Adele swept the Grammys last night, and even she couldn't believe she beat out Beyonce for Album of the Year. The British songbird used her acceptance speech to heap praise on Queen Bey, and even split her award in half to share it with the pregnant icon!
Solange Knowles subtly threw shade at producers of the show for her sister's snub, by retweeting a link to Frank Ocean's recent post about the Grammys basically being unfair.
Good Lord, everyone needs to chill out! It's not the Nobel Peace Prize!

It was the biggest night in music, and the soirees didn't disappoint!
Katy Perry, Adele, Paris Jackson and others hit up the Grammys after party at Chateau Marmont last night, and it was quite the hodge podge of famous faces. Isn't it a little late for Michael Jackson's daughter to be out on a school night? Then again, we're pretty sure she's home schooled, so she probably got to sleep in.
KP brought the house down performing her new single "Chained To The Rhythm" at the award show, and she told reporters that her new tune is reflective of what her upcoming album is going to be like.
"I’m ready to ride 2017. Obviously, you’re going to get all that fun, kind of ‘me,’ fluffy stuff that you love. There are songs that are like ‘California Girls’ and ‘Teenage Dream.' But I think there’s definitely another angle that you have yet to see because I just feel something totally different," she told People.
"I don’t know it’s because I’m 32 or I’ve been doing this for a minute or I just decided to like, wake up a little bit more, but the voice that I feel like I’ve found in the past year, I think ‘Chained to the Rhythm’ is a good example of that — and then some other songs that are coming! So I’m very excited, I’m just going to let them roll out one by one and hopefully the people will love them," she added.
We're slightly surprised she didn't have boyfriend Orlando Bloom on her arm. Did they break up?!
