Farrah Abraham's Daughter Says She Never Wants To See Her Grandma Again — WATCH

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 05:47 PM PST

No shortage of drama in Farrah Abraham's life!

On Wednesday, MTV dropped a sneak peek for the upcoming episode of Teen Mom OG where the reality TV star's 8 year old daughter Sophia visibly shows her disapproval for grandmother Debra's nuptials to Dr. David Merz.

In the clip, when Farrah and Debra start talking wedding plans, the child begins growling and acting silly. At one point, Sophia even begins to hit herself, concerning momma Farrah.

When the 26-year-old takes the little one to the restroom to talk out her feelings, Sophia confesses:

"I never want to see her again if she gets married to David."

Although Radar Online reported in September that the 16 & Pregnant alum would not attend her mom's big day, Farrah ended up participating in the November ceremony as Debra's maid of honor. But not before some drama!

Comedian Sued For Sexism Over 'No Boys Allowed' Show!

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 04:55 PM PST

When we first heard about a lawsuit aimed at standup comic Iliza Shlesinger for doing a girls-only show, we thought it was merely some more dumb man-baby bullshit.

But the more we see from George St. George's suit, the more it seems downright offensive!

In his lawsuit, St. George claims he bought two tickets for Girls Night with Iliza -- No Boys Allowed -- and was told he would have to sit in the back because it was a women-only show. Then he and his friend left for dinner and returned to find the theater had decided instead not to allow men at all, immediately offering St. George a refund.

In the suit, attorney Alfred Rava -- who according to The Hollywood Reporter is making a career filing cases about discrimination against men, including a suit against the Oakland A's for giving hats away for Mother's Day -- compares what St. George went through to the Civil Rights movement

He says the night "can best be described as akin to the Montgomery City Lines bus company in Montgomery, Alabama circa 1955."

He also quotes George Orwell, compares the event to holding a "Caucasian Night," and says the show "repudiated hundreds of years of women's struggles to be viewed as being equal to men and is typical of old-fashioned sexism that might also advise a young woman that her best chance for a happy life is to ace her home economics class and learn how to make a queso dip from Velveeta to catch a good man."

Yowza.

Shlesinger has not publicly responded to the lawsuit (she's busy entertaining the troops at the tail end of a USO tour at the moment) and indeed may not legally be allowed to comment at all.

But we will.

It is gross to compare a couple guys not being let into what is clearly labeled a "No Boys Allowed" show to systematic racial oppression, to compare a few minutes' inconvenience to the violent, often deadly backlash to the fight for equal rights.

Women are not the ruling power subverting the will of second-class men. Women are in fact, the oppressed, and also the heckled, harangued, harassed, and intimidated here, and if they want a few damn minutes without having to worry about what men will say or think, it's not a lot to ask!

St. George is asking for unspecified "damages." Ugh.

What do YOU think of this lawsuit??

Bono Thinks Music Is Too 'Girly' These Days…

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 03:55 PM PST

WTF, Bono??

The U2 frontman has really put his foot in it this time.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the Mysterious Ways singer talks about an impending revolution that is coming, in the form of the return of young male rage. Yay.

Related: Remember When Made Glamour's Women Of The Year List?

He explains:

"I think music has gotten very girly. And there are some good things about that, but hip-hop is the only place for young male anger at the moment — and that's not good."

Is he really using "girly" as a way to express a lack in modern music? He continues:

"When I was 16, I had a lot of anger in me. You need to find a place for it and for guitars, whether it is with a drum machine — I don't care. The moment something becomes preserved, it is fucking over. You might as well put it in formaldehyde. In the end, what is rock & roll? Rage is at the heart of it. Some great rock & roll tends to have that, which is why The Who were such a great band. Or Pearl Jam. Eddie has that rage."

You know who else has "that rage"? GIRLS! AND THEY HAVE GOOD REASON FOR IT! OR HAVEN'T YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION THIS YEAR??

Just because you don't like how women express it doesn't mean music is missing something. Ugh.

Of course, we weren't the only ones offended. See some of the best retorts (below):

Vanity Fair Apologizes After Getting Ripped For Suggesting Hillary Clinton 'Take Up Knitting'!

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 03:18 PM PST

Oof! Not a good look, Vanity Fair!

The magazine released a political satire video over the weekend called "6 New Years Resolutions for Hillary Clinton," in which they suggested writing a sequel to What Happened and other things to keep her busy so she doesn't run for President again.

The idea, we guess, is that defeating Donald Trump is too important to entrust to someone who already lost? Where they got in trouble is this line:

"Take up a new hobby in the new year. Volunteer work, knitting, improv comedy ― literally anything that will keep you from running again."

Eesh. Not sure if writer Maya Kosoff meant the "knitting" comment to sound utterly sexist, but that's definitely how it came across.

See the vid AND some of the most irate comments on Twitter (below):


After the backlash, spokeswoman Beth Kseniak sent out a statement of apology, saying:

"It was an attempt at humor and we regret that it missed the mark."

Well, that was almost an apology.

What do YOU think of VF's video??

Teen Mom 2 Star Briana DeJesus DENIES Break Up With Javi Marroquin: 'We Both See Long Term Potential'

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 03:01 PM PST

Going the distance!

As we reported in October, Teen Mom 2 star Javi Marroquin told People he is "dating" ex-wife Kailyn Lowry's costar Briana DeJesus.

Although some fans thought the reality TV personalities recently broke up, the Teen Mom 3 alum is calling BS on the rumors!

She told US Weekly:

"Javi and I are still together. We are making plans toward our future. Our relationship has been great thus far and I believe we both see long term potential... Only the future will tell, but we're enjoying being together and have a great time each time we are together."

Out of everything, the mother-of-two -- who has 6-year-old daughter Nova with ex Devoin Austin and 5-month-old Stella with ex Luis Hernandez -- loves the fact that Javi is great with her kids.

"Javi is also great to my kids and I appreciate that beyond belief, as I've struggled with my kids' fathers being there for them... Again, any and all breakup rumors are definitely false and it's ridiculous not spending Christmas together is what's behind them. We each have families we had to spend Christmas with, to be clear."

Although the two didn't see each other on Christmas, they "will be spending New Year's" together!

Sadly, their relationship isn't controversy-free. On December 22, Briana's mom Roxanne DeJesus wrote (and then deleted) tweets saying Javi lied about his second deployment with the Air Force, and that he is only using the drama as part of his story line.

Luckily for everyone involved, Briana says there is no beef between the two.

"My mother and Javi are fine. There's no issues... She just wants to make sure Javi's intentions are true and not just for TV. She's my mother and wants to protect me but we are all fine. Everything has worked out."

On December 11, Javi told Radar Online he "wasn't expecting" his second deployment "at all."

Marroquin shares 4-year-old Lincoln with Lowry.

Billie Lourd is traveling to new heights to keep Carrie Fisher's memory alive!

On Wednesday, one year after her mother's death, the Scream Queens alum shared that she had visited Norway to see the northern lights as a tribute to the late Star Wars actress.

As seen in her Instagram post, Lourd made the journey with her father Bryan Lourd and his husband Bruce Bozzi to see the aurora borealis, which, she revealed, Fisher had "an otherworldly obsession with."

Lourd even quoted her mother in the caption from a piece she wrote about stargazing for Port Magazine in 2013, in which the hilarious writer hoped to "see the heavens lift up her dark skirts and flash her dazzling privates across my unworthy irises."

As Carrie would have it, the heavens also flashed her daughter and ex-husband with all her naked, celestial glory! See the amazing pics (below):

Mike Huckabee Schooled On Twitter After Comparing Trump To Churchill!

Yet more proof Donald Trump supporters know nothing about history.

Mike Huckabee, whose daughter Sarah Huckabee Sanders' whole job consists of finding ways to twist the President's lies daily, heaped disgusting amount of praise on his orange leader on Tuesday.

Gay Pro-Wrestler Says Masculine Shaming From LGBT Community Kept Him In The Closet

Posted: 27 Dec 2017 01:53 PM PST

He said WHAT?

In an interview with Gay Star News posted on Wednesday, professional wrestler Mike Parrow opened up for the first time about his sexuality and his long journey of self-acceptance.

Given his small town upbringing, the athlete -- who stands 6'4" and weighs 300 pounds -- had trouble finding people who could empathize with his situation.

"I've always known I'm gay. That was never a question in my mind. But growing up, I went to Catholic school my whole life. My mom's a Sunday school teacher. I came from a small town in upstate New York. It didn't have a flourishing gay community... The only exposure I saw of any gay culture was extremely effeminate and that was what was on TV. I'm not like Jack on Will and Grace, so I'm not gay."

After moving to Florida in his 20s to attend wrestling school, the now-34-year-old thought the relocation would give him a chance to explore his sexuality. Sadly, it was "the worst experience" of his life.

"I'm in a new town, nobody knows me. I'm in my late 20s. Let's give this a go!... It was absolutely the worst experience in my life... Gay men can be the meanest, cruelest people you've ever met in your life. I was 'fat,' I was 'ugly,' I'm a 'closet case,' and at the time I was just looking to understand what's going on."

Parrow even claims he was "masculine shamed," an experience that put him "further back in the closet."

"I learned you can get very much masculine shamed in the gay community as of late, which is really weird, but it happens... And so that put me further back in the closet than going forward. So I buried myself in wrestling and focused on my career. And I had some success, but that was always in the back of my mind."

Due to his struggles, Parrow became "massively depressed," "very lonely," and suicidal. At one point, he even paid for gay conversion therapy.

"It was an absolute joke. Kind of hilarious. Basically, it was just them saying, 'We're going to set you up with girls and that's what you're going to like."'

Luckily, Mike's life changed for the better, and he recently got engaged to his fiancé Morgan.

Shortly after meeting his love, Parrow came out to friends and family four and a half years ago.

"I told my dad and he was like, 'Yeah?' And I'm like, 'Yeah?' And he was like, 'Well, you've got to give me some credit. I am a detective. I kind of figured that out of all the girls you kept denying that you didn't like girls, I was just waiting for you to tell me!'"

Sounds like Mike has finally embraced his true self!
