BREAKING NEWS - Angelina Jolie Files For Divorce From Brad Pitt, Seeks Full Custody Of Children

Posted on Tue Sep 20th, 2016 7:53am PDT       By X17 Staff


It's the divorce shocker of the decade! Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt.

The news site has reported that the Hollywood superstar filed for divorce from Brad Pitt last week on Sept. 15, citing irreconcilable differences. And here's the real kicker: she's seeking sole physical custody of the couple's six children.

The site says that the Salt actress, who nabbed divorce-lawyer-to-the-stars Laura Wasser, does NOT want Brad to have joint physical custody, but she will allow him visitation rights and joint legal custody. Yikes! That pretty much means this divorce is not amicable and that Angie does NOT trust Brad to take care of their famous brood.

The outlet is also reporting that the split happened for various reasons but mainly due to parenting styles mixed with a possible substance abuse issue -- and not a third person. A source says that Angelina is "fed up" with Brad's constant weed and possible alcohol consumption, as well as "an anger problem," which she felt endangered her children. Yikes!

It's also possible that the Oscar winner's philanthropic agenda tore them apart? Perhaps Brad no longer handle his lady love's star status? Or did something sketchy happen?

Brad and Angie married in August 2014, but have been together since meeting on the set of Mrs. and Mrs. Smith in 2004.

We don't know exactly what split up the longtime couple ... but there's one thing we do know: JENNIFER ANISTON IS HAVING THE BEST TUESDAY EVER!

Natalie Portman Returns To LA After Debuting Baby Bump In Venice

Posted on Tue Sep 20th, 2016 7:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


After debuting her baby bump on the red carpet at the Venice International Film Festival, Natalie Portman kept it covered up when she arrived at Los Angeles International Airport on Monday afternoon.

We had a feeling the Oscar winner was pregnant again, and at the premiere of Planetarium last week she proudly showed off her bump under a gorgeous white gown. Though she didn't comment on it, a source confirmed to Us Weekly that the actress and husband Benjamin Millepied are in fact expecting their second child together.

Portman and Millepied met on the set of Black Swan in 2010 and in 2011 they welcomed son Aleph. In 2012 the duo got married.

 

Jim Carrey Fights Wrongful Death Lawsuit Filed By Late Girlfriend's Estranged Husband

Posted on Tue Sep 20th, 2016 6:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


The estranged husband of Jim Carrey's late girlfriend, Cathriona White, has filed a wrongful lawsuit against the star, alleging that Carrey contributed to White's death. The actor is fighting back, vehemently denying that he provided White with prescription pills that ultimately led to her suicide.

White and Burton were separated when she dated Carrey, and though they were on and off, apparently they were together at the time of her death, which was caused by “multiple drug effects," according to the coroner. The toxicology report stated that she had Ambien, Percocet and Propranolol in her system, and in legal docs, Burton claims that the drugs were prescribed to Carrey under his pseudonym Arthur King, and that he gave them to White.

Carey said in a statement to Us Weekly:
    "What a shame. It would be easy for me to get back in a room with this man’s lawyer and make this go away, but there are moments in life when you have to stand up and defend your honor against the evil in this world. I will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman I loved. Cat's troubles were born long before I met her and sadly her tragic end was beyond anyone's control. I really hope someday soon people will stop trying to profit from this and let her rest in peace."

Carrey’s lawyer, Marty Singer, added, "Jim never supplied his prescription medications to Ms. White," noting that the prescriptions were "legally obtained medications that were prescribed to him by his doctor," and that the actor would "vigorously fight" the lawsuit.

 

Sofia Richie Is A Hot Mess After Split From Justin Bieber

Posted on Tue Sep 20th, 2016 6:00am PDT       By X17 Staff


She's brave for stepping out so soon after a split, but Sofia Richie let her clothes do the talking when we caught up with her on Monday afternoon!

Sofia, who JUST ended things with Justin Bieber, was snapped wearing a white bodycon dress, fuzzy slippers and an "Enfants Riches Deprimes" jean jacket, which is French for "Depressed Rich Kids." Judging from the smile on her face, she doesn't seem that bummed about the breakup, but she did seem intent on dodging the rain, so she hustled to and from her Tesla.

After just one month of dating and trips to Mexico and Japan, Sofia and the Biebs broke up. Seems mutual, but apparently it was never that serious to begin with. "These girls all go crazy for him, but he's not settling down. It's virtually impossible where he's at in his life and career for anything to last with these girls," a source previously told People.

Justin Bieber And Sofia Richie Are Dunzo!

That was quick!

Justin Bieber and Sofia Richie have split after a little over a month of dating, TMZ reports. The pair were reportedly never serious to begin with, and were just enjoying each other's company while it lasted. Selena Gomez can step away from the edge of the cliff now!

"These girls all go crazy for him, but he's not settling down. It's virtually impossible where he's at in his life and career for anything to last with these girls," a source dished to People.

During their short lived romance, the duo took trips to Japan and Mexico and weren't shy with their PDA. The "Sorry" crooner is currently in Paris on his Purpose world tour, while Lionel Richie's daughter is licking her wounds in LA.

He loves 'em and leaves 'em quicker than Leo!

 

Jim Carrey Sued For Wrongful Death Of Ex Girlfriend Cathriona White

Posted on Mon Sep 19th, 2016 2:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Jim Carrey is being sued for the wrongful death of his ex girlfriend Cathriona White. The funny man is also being accused of illegally obtaining and giving the late makeup artist the powerful painkillers that she used to commit suicide last September.

Interestingly enough, the person suing the Liar Liar actor is not White's family -- the plaintiff is White's husband, Mark Burton. That's right -- she was married. Burton is an Oregon man married to White at the time of her death.

The lawsuit, which was filed in Los Angeles, tries to dispel the myth of Carrey as a "grieving good guy" and paint him reckless and deceitful both before and after the 30-year-old's death.

On September 28, 2015, White was found dead in her home in Sherman Oaks, Calif. The Los Angeles County coroner's office later said that the Irish-born make-up artist died from overdosing on prescription drugs, including Ambien, Propranol and Percocet (oxycodone).

The lawsuit states, "After obtaining these drugs illegally and under a bogus name ("Arthur King"), Mr. Carrey proceeded to provide the prescription drugs to...Cathriona White" despite knowing that White was "prone to depression and had previously attempted to take her own life …The result that followed was predictable and foreseeable."

Burton's lawsuit also claimed that the actor tried to "conceal and obfuscate his involvement and culpability in Ms. White's untimely and tragic death."
The lawsuit does not specify how much Burton is asking for, but it does demand a trial by jury.

Carrey's lawyer has not commented.

 

Jason Lee Says He And His Wife Have Left The Church Of Scientology

Posted on Mon Sep 19th, 2016 12:54pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Longtime Scientologist Jason Lee has left the controversial church!

The former My Name Is Earl actor, who began practicing the religion in the early '90s after being introduced to it by then-girlfriend Marissa Ribisi, just gave the scoop to a local news outlet, The Dentonite. The funny man moved to Denton, Texas (which has a population of just over 113,000) to live a quieter life with his wife Ceren Alkac, and their daughter, Casper, 8, and son Sonny, 4, in 2015.

In the interview with the local paper, the actor squashed rumors that he and his wife were in the area, buying up real estate in order to open a Scientology center. He explained to the reporter: “If Ceren and I had an idea for a business, it certainly wouldn’t happen at the cost of someone else’s,” he continued. “And being that we don’t practice Scientology, and that we aren’t particularly interested in opening religious centers in general, we have no plans to open a Scientology center."

The actor added, "Quite a few rumors about me/us floating around, but none of it’s true. We’re not here to buy up or change or take over Denton, put some kind of personal stamp on it. We’re just here like anyone else who wants to be a part of Denton’s very cool creative community, and to be involved and perhaps help where we can.”

On rumors that he'd bought a space to turn into a Scientology center, the actor added, “I haven’t purchased anything in Denton. That was never really the plan. But I do rent a little photo office space. It’s nice to have a place away from home for scanning and editing my film photos, listening to records and just being around my cameras and books and whatnot."

Well … there ya have it folks, Jason Lee's not a Scientologist any more! We have a feeling John Travolta is not going to be happy about this one!

We wonder if this has anything to do with the open letter that Lee's ex wife Carmen Llywelyn wrote, blaming the church for the couple's split.

Llywelyn told Gawker, “I started to feel like he was forcing Scientology on me, past the point where I didn’t want to go any further. He would never stop talking about it.” She also said, “It became a source of contention, and I realized that unless I accepted Scientology the way he did and the way he wanted me to, we would most likely cease to know each another.”

Maybe they can know each other now that Lee doesn't consider her an SP any more?
