Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

Shortly after Jenelle Evans' husband's comments went viral, MTV released a statement on Tuesday announcing Eason's termination from the show.

The network wrote:


Earlier on Tuesday, Evans tried to clean up her man's mess by saying he "doesn't hate people from the LGBT community" and that he "didn't understand how offensive people would get or how Twitter even works."

Several TM2 costars including Kailyn Lowry and Leah Messer voiced their outrage over Eason's remarks.

Fergie Is OUT Of The Black Eyed Peas!

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 06:39 PM PST

First the national anthem, and now THIS??

In an interview with the Daily Star published on Sunday, will.i.am says Fergie will NOT be featured on the Black Eyed Peas' seventh studio album.

The 42-year-old rapper explains:

"We are now a trio. I don't know why Fergie isn't on the project. You will have to ask Fergie that."

When asked how the new line-up would work on tour, the producer defensively shot back by exclaiming:

"You know we are actually capable of doing it without Fergie... There's so much shit to talk about bro. But you guys just like meddling... We performed as a trio before and if you had done your research properly you would know how we would do it as a three."

Yikes! That question struck a nerve!

Last year, there were several rumors that Fergie was going to be replaced by Nicole Scherzinger. As we reported in June 2017, will.i.am said the Pussycat Dolls star "is on the new BEP project" but didn't reveal her exact involvement.

While it's still unclear if Scherzinger is in the group, she is considered "family" and is a member of their WhatsApp message chain.

"We have a chat group called Black Eyed Peas family. It has nothing to do with making music or money. It's about friendship. It's the three of us and Nicole. It's about family. Nicole is Black Eyed Peas. She is family."

Oh, and don't ask him if PCD are coming back or not.

"Are Pussycat Dolls coming back? I speak to Nicole every day and she hasn't mentioned it. But anything Nicole asked me to do I would do it though. I love that girl."

There you have it, folks!

Colton Haynes Says He Is 'Being Forced To Say Goodbye' To Hospitalized Mother In Heartbreaking Instagram Post

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 05:56 PM PST

Poor Colton Haynes.

The Arrow star shared the sad news on Tuesday that his mother, who has been in and out of the hospital since January, was diagnosed with "advanced cirrhosis of the liver & kidney failure."

And unfortunately it's too late for a liver transplant. Colton shared:

"The doctors suggested that we now focus on my mother's quality of life rather than quantity of life. It's heartbreaking. My strong mother has always been the anchor of this family and our best friend. Now we're being forced to say goodbye to her."

So awful. See the rest of the heartbreaking post (below):

My mom, Dana, always loves to laugh. Even when her liver & kidney doctors gave us the worst news you could get, my mom looked at us and said, "The best thing to do in these situations is to laugh." She then chuckled so loud you could hear it to the other end of the hospital. That's my mom. Shes funny, bull headed, & strong. My mom has been in and out of the hospital since January. After multiple tests we found out she actually has advanced cirrhosis of the liver & kidney failure. A diagnosis that can be cured with a liver transplant.. however..that bad news I mentioned before was that she doesn't have that much time to wait for a new liver. The doctors suggested that we now focus on my mother's quality of life rather than quantity of life. It's heartbreaking. My strong mother has always been the anchor of this family and our best friend. Now we're being forced to say goodbye to her. So with that horrible news from "Dr. Doom" (a name my mom came up for him) my family has set up steps to make mom comfortable. We set up in home hospice care so she can be home with her boyfriend, Gary, and her beloved cat, Fasa. Hospice care is covered by my moms insurance 100%. As well as nurses visits on a "need be" basis. A personal in home nurse that can be there 24/7, however, is not covered and would need to be paid out of pocket. My siblings and family are spread out around the country and world. We've been taking turns flying out when we can to help but it's not enough. My brother wanted to do his part to help with the expense of hiring a full time nurse & guess what...the gofundme goal has been reached to pay for Amity Home Care in Hemet California! Now that the goal has been reached...every single penny we raise over the goal from today on will be donated to the American Liver Foundation to help others who are going through this horrible disease. It would mean the world to my family & I if we could make a massive donation to this incredible organization. Thank y'all for listening & sending all the love to my beautiful momma. Donation link in my bio ❤❤❤A post shared by Colton Haynes-Leatham (@coltonlhaynes) on Feb 20, 2018 at 1:46pm PST

Inside Selena Gomez's PDA-Filled Weekend At Justin Bieber's Dad's Jamaican Wedding!

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 05:44 PM PST

Sounds like the perfect President's Day celebration!

According to E! News sources, on Monday, Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez traveled to Jamaica to attend his dad Jeremy Bieber's wedding to Chelsey Rebelo!

An insider dishes:

"Selena and Justin flew overnight from Dallas to Jamaica for Jeremy Bieber's wedding on Monday... Justin picked up Selena in a private jet, and they arrived first thing in the morning to Montego Bay. They spent the day with Justin's family at a resort catching up and getting ready for Jeremy and Chelsey to get married."

While on the Caribbean island nation, the Wolves singer was given a warm welcome from the Bieber brood!

"Selena was very comfortable with Justin's family... She was hugging some of them and seemed right at home."

Selly was so comfortable, she and the Biebs weren't shy in showing their affection for each other!

"She and Justin ate lunch together and packed on the PDA... They were kissing and hugging throughout the morning. He rubbed sunscreen all over her back and they enjoyed the pool and being outside."

At the "laid back and casual" wedding, the groomsmen -- including the Sorry musician -- wore matching pink shorts. The source adds:

"It was a lot of fun with Jamaican dancers and bongo players... Everyone was very relaxed and having a good time. It was a perfect destination wedding in a beautiful spot, and Selena and Justin looked extremely happy."

Congrats on your wedding, Jeremy and Chelsey!

That Didn't Take Long… Conservatives Are Now Attacking The Florida High School Shooting Survivors…

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 05:06 PM PST

Well, this is disgusting.

In case the support of an alleged pedophile, the denial of an attack by a foreign power, and the systematic assault on our country's own intelligence agencies weren't enough to show you that nothing is sacred anymore, we give you...

The birth of the Parkland conspiracy theories, in which conservatives look for ways to discredit the survivors of last week's shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, who have been vocal advocates for common sense gun control after losing 17 classmates and teachers.

Related: Survivor Challenges Trump To Face-To-Face Conversation About Gun Control!

That's right. That is to say, that's right wing. Positions that used to be held only by fringe nutjobs like Alex Jones are now firmly embedded in the GOP at large.

For instance, on Tuesday an aide for Florida state representative Shawn Harrison (R-Tampa) claimed students David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez (pictured above) aren't even really students but "actors that travel to various crisis when they happen."

Neat trick for Hogg, who managed to travel to the high school and pose as a student to record cell phone footage during the shooting.

Harrison later tweeted he put the aide on leave:


Great. But it doesn't reflect well on you that you hired this tool...

And he wasn't alone.

Related: Steven Seagal Says 40% Of Sexual Misconduct Claims Are Part Of A Worldwide Conspiracy

Donald Trump support site Gateway Pundit -- a garbage conspiracy site which somehow actually has White House credentials -- is also going after Hogg.

Their theory is that he is speaking out against guns in order to take the heat off his retired FBI agent father -- since it was the entire FBI, including former agents, that are responsible for the shooting. Anything but guns, right?

These people should be on the street carrying signs, not reporting from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Oh, still think this is just fringe folks? Donald Trump Jr. already liked a tweet repeating this claim.

Next, former Representative Jack Kingston (R-Georgia) went on CNN Tuesday morning to say he believed the students were real but that their grief was being "hijacked" by "left-wing groups who have an agenda."

He seriously thinks their actions are being orchestrated by billionaire George Soros.

And then there are those who aren't making outrageous claims about fake outrage or actors.

No, they just want to victory dance at the news that Florida won't ban assault rifles -- like professional truth-attacker Dinesh D'Souza, who tweeted:

What kind of piece of shit do you have to be to go after school shooting survivors?

We have the answer now...

Spoiler Alert: Looks Like This The Walking Dead Actress Is Leaving Over Salary Dispute!

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 04:07 PM PST

It seems AMC's infamous The Walking Dead stinginess is about to cost them yet again.

The network was already being sued by show creator Frank Darabont over allegedly scamming them out of profit sharing, and last year Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, Glen Mazzara, and David Alpert joined in the suit.

Now their inability to meet the salary demands of one of their stars is going to cost them one of their most popular characters...

SPOILER ALERT!

You Have Been Warned!

Maggie!

Yes, Lauren Cohan has been battling the network over her salary, and it apparently just isn't going to happen -- as she's just signed on to a new ABC action pilot.

[Surprisingly, this is not even about parity with her male costars. They just aren't meeting her personal number.]

Lauren has reportedly been highly in-demand this pilot season as she weighs her future in the zombie apocalypse.

In the show she finally settled on, Whiskey Cavalier, she will play a tough, cunning CIA agent in a task force with her FBI counterpart, played by Scandal hunk Scott Foley.

Um, a police procedural with a will they/won't they dynamic? Yeah, that show is get greenlit.

Like Sonequa Martin-Green before her, it looks like Cohan was forced to choose between TWD and greener pastures, and she chose the latter.

Get it, gurl!

We Called It! Jessica Chastain In Talks To Star In The IT Sequel!

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:50 PM PST

You'd gloat too if you predicted this casting news!

Back when It hit theaters, we listed our top picks to play the adult versions of the Losers Club in the second chapter of the Warner Bros. remake.

While some were wishful thinking, one pick was a no-brainer: Jessica Chastain as the adult version of Beverly Marsh.

Not only did the actress star in director Andy Muschietti's horror film Mama, she's a dead ringer for a grown up Sophia Lillis, who gave a standout performance playing kid Bev in the 2017 horror hit.

Related: Jessica Ensured Octavia Spencer Got Equal Pay For Their Upcoming Flick!

Now, our dreams appear to be coming true right before our eyes: Variety reports that Chastain is in talks to star as adult Bev!

Sources say that the script for the Muschietti-directed sequel is still being worked on, but both sides have officially begun to negotiate Chastain coming on to the project, which is set to hit theaters Sept. 6, 2019.

Muschietti did mention Chastain as a top choice to play adult Bev in an interview with Variety. So we won't take all the credit for this casting!

But if some of our more obscure picks also come to fruition, we'll be floating higher than 99 of Pennywise's best red balloons!

Wendy Williams Says Beyoncé Needs Autotune & Twitter Is PISSED!

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:28 PM PST

The Beyhive isn't happy about this!

On Monday's episode of The Wendy Williams Show, Wendy Williams discussed Fergie's disastrous rendition of the U.S. National Anthem at Sunday's NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles.

Related: Wendy Williams SLAMS 'Selfish' Kim Kardashian

Although Josh Duhamel's ex is a "friend" of the show, the daytime talk show host claims she "needs autotune" in order to perform live. Shockingly, Miz Williams thinks Beyoncé needs it as well!

She told her audience:

"There are only a few people who can sing raw dog and Fergie is not one, she needs autotune... Jen[nifer] Lopez needs autotune, Janet [Jackson] needs autotune, Beyoncé needs autotune. Adele, Aretha [Franklin], Celine [Dion], Dionne Warwick and Mariah [Carey], they need nothing. They sing raw dog."

The 53-year-old also says Fergie didn't need to apologize as her heavily panned performance will soon be old news.

"I don't feel like Fergie needed to apologize to anybody. You did it, you done it, and that's that... She did her jazzy version of the anthem at the NBA and everyone was upset and she released a statement saying she wanted to do something different and apparently different wasn't good... To me, she didn't need to apologize. To me, this will go away by next week this time because somebody's gonna come out of the closet or there will be another gun violence situation or something... Maybe she apologized to gain sympathy, I have no idea. Fergs, you're the best."

When social media heard about Wendy's Bey diss, they were FURIOUS and immediately defended JAY-Z's wife and her singing abilities!

See the best reactions (below)!

Ex-NFL Player Rae Carruth Pens 15-Page Letter Apologizing For Plotting To Kill His Pregnant Girlfriend Back In 1999

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 03:09 PM PST

Former NFL player Rae Carruth has broken his 17-year silence to apologize from behind bars for his role in the death of his pregnant girlfriend, Cherica Adams.

In case you're unfamiliar, Adams died back in December 1999 after complications from gunshot wounds. The ex-Carolina Panthers wide receiver was found guilty of hiring Van Brett Watkins and Michael Kennedy to murder Adams, who ultimately died a month later. Her and Rae's son, Chancellor Lee Adams, was born prematurely and has battled cerebral palsy as a result of his traumatic birth.

The motive of the arranged shooting is unconfirmed, but Carruth has said he was motivated by Adams' reluctance to get an abortion.

Now, Carruth is accepting responsibility for Adams' murder and the challenges Chancellor is facing. With that said, he's now asking the victim's mother, Saundra Adams, who has been raising Chancellor for the past 18 years, for custody when he is released from prison in October in a 15-page letter.

Carruth told a local Charlotte news station:

"I'm apologizing for the loss of her daughter. I'm apologizing for the impairment of my son. I feel responsible for everything that happened. And I just want her to know that truly I am sorry for everything."

He went on:

"I should be raising my son. His mother should be raising her son. Ms. Adams should not be doing this and I want that responsibility back. I feel like he might not ever have his mother in his life but he could still have me and I could still make a difference and I don't think that's anyone's responsibility when I'm still here."

Adams responded by saying she would not relinquish custody:

"I've forgiven Rae already, but to have any type of relationship with him, there does have to be some repentance. And I think this opens the door. But I can say definitively he's not ever going to have custody of Chancellor. Chancellor will be raised either by me or, after I'm gone, by someone else who loves him and who knows him. He will never be raised by a stranger -- someone he doesn't know and who tried to kill him."

That seems fair...
