Todd Fisher Says Mom Debbie Reynolds Asked For His 'Permission' To Pass Away!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 07:10 PM PDT

What a huge reveal!

In December 2016, Hollywood was shocked when legendary mother-daughter duo Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher died one day a part.

Fast forward to Wednesday, Reynolds' son Todd Fisher gave an interview to ET where he opens up about how he's doing since losing both his mom and his sister months ago.

During the sit-down, the producer discloses that the Singin' In The Rain actress actually asked for his 'permission' to die hours after Carrie passed away.

The 59-year-old said:

"My mother said to me the night that Carrie died... we were talking that night and I didn't know what was happening, but she was setting me up for her leaving the planet... And she really just said to me, 'You know, I know that was really hard on you losing your sister.' [And I said], 'I mean, Carrie was there holding my hand when I took my first steps. I have film of that and it will be in the memorial.' And when I was editing that, it ripped my heart out. But my mother said, 'I know that's tough. It might be tougher even, you know… I don't know for sure when I [will] go.'"

Initially, Todd didn't understand what Debbie meant by these statements.

"I was like, 'Well, look, fortunately we don't have to face that right now, you know, we just face this'... But then she was like asking my permission [to go]. I [said], 'You're going to be OK, everything is under control.' And she starts running me back through her estate, which we had done many times. [She's like], 'You're going to take my dog and, you know, all these little instructions.' And [she] even [went through] last-minute changes due to the fact that Carrie left first, as far as the memorial service."'

While Billie Lourd's uncle thought he was going over logistics for Carrie's funeral, he realized he would soon be planning his mother's memorial service as well.

"I thought that we were just going through these events just like one would go back through an estate... But instead the next morning, we had a little further dialogue and she chose to leave the planet in front of my face two feet away. If you had told me this story and I wasn't there, I would have a very hard time believing what I saw. But she literally looked at me and said, 'I want to go be with Carrie' and closed her eyes and went to sleep."'

Although one might have a hard time believing Todd's story, he says he is 100% telling the truth.

"I'm telling you what it looked like... It looked like she asked permission to leave, told me she was going to leave, told me she loves me, closed her eyes and went to sleep."

R.I.P. Debbie and Carrie.

Terror In London: Celebs React

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 06:13 PM PDT

Such a tragedy...

As we reported, on Wednesday, a man drove a large vehicle into pedestrian traffic on Westminster Bridge in London. After crashing into a rail, the driver tried to enter Westminster Abbey and stabbed a policeman in the process. He was later shot by police.

As of this writing, five are dead (including policeman Keith Palmer), and over 40 are injured.

Once word spread, several celebs -- including Nicki Minaj -- sent their thoughts and prayers via social media to the victims of this heinous crime. Sadly, the Super Bass rapper's message to England was overshadowed when fans criticized her for speaking out about London yet staying silent about the Orlando shooting at Pulse nightclub.

Even with this controversy, other Hollywood stars -- including Chelsea Clinton and Ellen DeGeneres -- took time to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in Wednesday's attack.

House Intelligence Chair Drops Trump Surveillance Bombshell — After Asking Donald If It's OK First!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 05:54 PM PDT

Lots to unpack here, not the least of which is Devin Nunes' nose from Donald Trump's ass.

Nunes is the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, which is currently investigating the President's claims that he was "wiretapped" by President Barack Obama during the election.

That investigation may have been completely derailed today when Nunes announced in a press conference on Wednesday that he had been given new information on the case.

He says he received intel that Trump WAS surveilled, but not due to being the target of surveillance. Rather, says Nunes, Trump was speaking to foreign targets of U.S. surveillance, and he and his team were recorded "incidentally."

Um... WHO was Trump talking to??

Nunes would not reveal that information but assured the press it had nothing to do with that other investigation. You know, the one about Trump figuratively (and possibly literally) being in bed with Russia.

The Donald said he felt "somewhat" vindicated by this development, though even if it's true it would still mean he was absolutely wrong about Obama wiretapping him and that he STILL owed the former POTUS an apology.

Of course, Nunes doesn't see it that way; his defense all along has been that Trump, like The Bible or TV psychics, should not be taken "literally."

Ugh.

We're sure we'll get more info on this development over the next few days. But let's focus on Nunes for a second.

Notice that we didn't say this info came out in a hearing of the HIC? You know, the committee running the investigation? The one Nunes is LEADING??

That's because Nunes decided he should bring the info directly to the President first, before letting anyone else in the committee see it. Even though, of course, the President and his team are part of the investigation.

Shady af.

But hey, man. What else is new?

We mean, Nunes himself was part of Trump's transition team, so it's already a kangaroo court.

One person who is still surprised at the outrageous move is Nunes' fellow committee member and Representative of California Adam Schiff, who responded with his own press conference on behalf of Democrats, and the rest of the committee, who apparently have NO IDEA what Nunes is talking about!

He stated:

"If accurate, this information should have been shared with members of the committee, but it has not been. The Chairman also shared this information with the White House before providing it to the committee, another profound irregularity, given that the matter is currently under investigation. I have expressed my grave concerns with the Chairman that a credible investigation cannot be conducted this way."

Yeah, something tells us this investigation is going to be about as "credible" as a doctor with a degree from Trump U.

Schiff went on:

What do YOU think about all this, Perezcious readers??

Celebs Who've Gotten Candid About Their Anxiety!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 05:16 PM PDT

Celebrities, they're just like us!

Case in point, many of our favorite stars struggle with anxiety. No joke!

Most recently, Ellie Goulding opened up about how she relies on exercise to keep a handle on her anxiety issues. In fact, Miz Goulding's first bouts with anxiety came at the very start of her career. The blonde stunner told Well + Good:

"My new life as a pop star certainly wasn't as glamorous as all my friends from home thought. Secretly, I was really struggling physically and emotionally."

And, Ellie isn't the only celeb to feel this way! Be sure to ch-ch-check out the full list of A-listers who've discussed their battles with anxiety (below)...

ICYMI: Kristi Yamaguchi Wished Nancy Kerrigan Luck On DWTS With The Most Horribly Worded Tweet EVER!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 03:57 PM PDT

We are SCREAMING.

Kristi Yamaguchi wished fellow former figure skater Nancy Kerrigan good luck on her current role on Dancing With The Stars, and it was maybe not worded so well.

Related: Is Ryan Reynolds Mean???

Kristi tweeted:


"Break a leg"??? Uhhhh, does Kristi remember what Tonya Harding had done to Nancy back in 1994? That whole hiring someone to hit her in the leg with a lead pipe thing?!

Maybe she forgot. Time heals all wounds after all. Except shattered bones.

In any case, Twitter wouldn't let her lapse in memory go unpunished. The GIF reactions were SAVAGE:

Sorry, Kristi, but you deserved it. Delete your tweet! LMAO!

Anyway, Nancy thanked her, apparently not caring about the wording. So that's nice.

We are still screaming!

Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth Having Babies??? See The GROWING Evidence!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 03:45 PM PDT

The evidence is expanding... And no, we don't mean baby bumps!

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth may or may not have gotten married in secret, but it's beginning to look like they're taking that next step either way.

Here's what has fans speculating Miley is ready to pop out a little Aussie demigod: The couple have adjoining properties, a combined 10 acres in Malibu with two houses, a music studio, a swimming pool, even a barn.

Photos: Miley & Liam's Roller Coaster Romance — A Timeline!

But it appears based on DailyMail.com's new pics of the property that the couple have contractors adding on a little something -- what looks like a playground and a nursery!

Now obviously this is no proof the couple are already expecting. And the giant toy dinosaurs could just be for when The Flaming Lips come over. Ha!

But we have to admit it's a fair indicator they may be planning on kids in the very near future.

What do YOU think, Perezcious readers??

15-Year-Old Girl Sexually Assaulted By Multiple Attackers On Facebook Live

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 03:33 PM PDT

Up to 40 people reportedly watched multiple assailants sexually assault a 15-year-old girl on Facebook Live Sunday, according to Chicago police.

The victim went missing when she didn't return home after being dropped off by a relative, who claims to have been the last to see her before the attack.

Hours later, her family discovered a video on the Internet showing the high school freshman being attacked by "five or six" men.

After getting wind of the alarming video, cops began a search for the teen, who was ultimately found crying on a neighbor's porch on Tuesday. She was released to her mother after receiving treatment at a nearby hospital.

No arrests have been made yet, but CPD Spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted an update on the scary situation:

As the authorities pursue an investigation, a relative spoke out to the Chicago Tribune, saying:

"It hurts me to my core because I was one of the last people to see her [before the alleged attack]. I want to make sure this never happens to anybody else's kids, and if that starts with taking down this one group, I'll make that my life's mission."

Adding:

"If we don't stand up and do anything about it now, who knows if the next kid this happens to, maybe they don't get to come home. Maybe this doesn't get to have a happy ending."

Thus far neither the people who streamed the video to Facebook, nor the dozens of viewers, have been officially identified.

We'll keep you updated as we learn more.

Death Note Is Just A Footnote In The Long History Of Hollywood Whitewashing!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 03:16 PM PDT

Netflix has been hit this past week with a one-two punch of controversy thanks to claims of white exceptionalism in Marvel's Iron Fist and now pure whitewashing in the first trailer for Death Note.

The manga adaptation changed Light Yagami to Light Turner in the American movie, leading many to once again voice their displeasure with Hollywood's lack of representation for Asians.

Some have argued this is not whitewashing but rather just another remake relocating the setting and thus the nationality of the characters, like Let Me In or Death At A Funeral in recent years -- but come on. You couldn't have cast a young Asian American actor in the lead role, considering the source material?

Usually this kind of change is at least done to accommodate a movie star... but we're sorry, Nat Wolff is no Scarlett Johansson!

Maybe this is a good time for the filmmakers to look back on the limited amount of progress that has been made -- to give us an idea of how much better we can do!

DWTS Crotch-tastic Pair Sharna Burgess & Bonner Bolton Fuel MORE Relationship Rumors!

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 03:02 PM PDT

These two can't seem to tame those relationship rumors.

And if you ask us... it definitely looks like Sharna Burgess is bonin' Bonner Bolton!

The Dancing With The Stars duo stirred up some controversy earlier this week when the bull rider was filmed grabbing his partner's downstairs lady-bits on live TV! Yikes!

But now it seems the dancing duo have taken their PDA to the Cowboy Palace Saloon in Los Angeles as they were spotted on a flirty night out Tuesday evening.

In photos obtained by E! News, Bonner was seen putting his arm around the dancer and whispering in her ear before they kicked up their heels on the dance floor and even played a round of pool.

The sighting could have been a possible shoot for a segment on the ABC show, but the chemistry was undeniable! Let's face it, this definitely seems like an ooh la la situation!

Are Charmed Sisters Shannen Doherty & Holly Marie Combs Feuding??

Posted: 22 Mar 2017 02:47 PM PDT

Sounds like this friendship isn't so Charmed anymore??

It's looking like Shannen Doherty and Holly Marie Combs are no longer friends, which is pretty surprising considering their longtime friendship (TV sisterhood is forever, y'all!).

In case you haven't noticed, the stars haven't posted any pictures to Instagram since June of last year when they both appeared at the Sydney Opera House for an event (above).

While Holly shared this shot to IG at the time, fans have since taken to the Pretty Little Liars actress' comments to post speculation about their friendship. Five months ago, one wrote:

"verbovetskaya: There hasn't been any pics of you and @theshando recently.πŸ˜πŸ€” so I was wondering, did you guys fight or something?πŸ˜₯😒 Please,don't! πŸ™πŸ» I feel like my heart is going to break if that's trueπŸ’” your friendship has always been like good example for meπŸ’ž"

They have also both unfollowed each other on the social media app, and it turns out Shan even unfollowed her former BFF on Twitter (Holly still follows Shan though).

See (below)!

Amid her battle with breast cancer, Shannon spoke with Chelsea Handler in an October interview, spilling about how some friends bailed:

"People went, 'Um, no, you're just not fun anymore. You're sick and you're not drinking. You talk about cancer and I don't want to hear any talk about cancer. I want to talk about me.' It was heartbreaking. But at the same time, that's when I go, 'God, cancer is a godsend in a lot of ways because, boy, did it clean house in my life."

We can only speculate who she was talking about...

What do U think happened?
