Ricky Martin Was Told Coming Out As Gay Would Be The End Of His Career: 'It Was Extremely Painful'

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 07:34 PM PST

Ricky Martin is truly an inspiration.

On Tuesday night, the American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace star stopped by The Daily Show with Trevor Noah where he opened up about his decision to come out as gay in 2010.

Unfortunately, prior to the reveal, the Livin' la Vida Loca singer was advised by close friends to conceal his true identity. The 46-year-old recalls:

"I was surrounded by a lot of friends that were telling me 'Don't! Don't come out, it will be the end of your career!'... People that love me, people that mean well, people that were just victims of homophobia."'

In addition to his career, some believed coming out would hurt his reputation as a "heartthrob" and "sex symbol."

"If you add to that the fact that I was like a heartthrob, like a sex symbol — Everybody was telling me, 'It's going to be the end of your career.' It was extremely painful for me until I said, 'I can't take it anymore. It's all about me now, it's not about what's happening outside. It's about what I need in order to be happy.'"

Ultimately, Martin had to do it for his twin boys, Matteo and Valentino, 9.

"I had my kids, and I said 'I have to come out. I'm not going to lie to these beautiful kids."'

As we reported earlier this month, Ricky confirms he is married to Jwan Yosef after previously announcing their engagement in November 2016.

Jealous, much?

When this singer decided to spend more time on himself and himself alone, he really put the work in.

Not just for his career, but that body too! Ow owwww!!

But don't get us wrong. We wouldn't hate it if there were other sets of abs in this photo. Three's certainly not a crowd when you're talking about his family.

Think you know who it is???

See if you're right (after the jump)!

Oh Shit! Sophia The Robot Finally Came For Chrissy Teigen…

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 06:07 PM PST

We knew Chrissy Teigen's Twitter account would eventually be her doom. But we never thought it would be from robots!

After hilariously getting into a beef with Sophia The Robot, who was famously granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia, beat Jimmy Fallon in rock, paper, scissors, and said she would "destroy all humans," the two ladies finally made peace.

And on Thursday, the two ladies finally got together not for lunch but for Lip Sync Battle!

Before the Spike TV show -- sorry, that's Paramount Network now -- Chrissy teased the guest appearance on Twitter:


Seems like Chrissy has become part of the machine revolution, but we're still horrified!

Sharon Osbourne Defends James Franco Amid Sexual Misconduct Scandal — Says He Should Go To Oscars 'With His Dick Out'

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 05:55 PM PST

James Franco has found an unlikely ally...

As we reported, The Disaster Artist actor has been accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women, including actress Violet Paley who says Franco pressured her to perform oral sex while they were sitting in a car.

Following his big win at the 2018 Golden Globes, the 39-year-old appeared on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert and Late Night With Seth Meyers where he denied the allegations, and vocalized his support for the Time's Up campaign.

On Wednesday night, The Talk cohosts Sharon Osbourne and Julie Chen were spotted outside Craig's in West Hollywood when TMZ asked them about the thespian's controversy. Apparently, Ozzy Osbourne's wife doesn't believe he did anything wrong!

She exclaimed:

"Fuck off. He's the best... Are you kidding? So what? What has he done? He's done nothing. So what if he's got his dick out in a car? Big deal."

The 65-year-old also believes he should attend the Oscars "with his dick out."

Earlier this month, Ashley Judd actually praised Franco for how he responded to the troubling allegations by saying:

"I think that what James said is terrific. And I think that we've all behaved, at a certain level, unconsciously, and done things that were insensitive, inappropriate, without necessarily understanding that they were. I mean, we've all operated with a certain amount of tone deafness, and I like the culpability, and we have to have restorative justice."

Judd followed up her comments up with a letter condemning binary thinking, emphasizing the importance of supporting the victims while also allowing space for abusers to make "authentic changes."

Hollywood isn't completely turning its back on James...

Chelsea Handler's Cherished Dog Chunk Passes Away

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 05:27 PM PST

Our heart goes out to Chelsea Handler.

On Thursday, the controversial tv host shared the news of her beloved animal friend's passing on Instagram.

Fans of Chelsea Lately and Chelsea knew Chunk well. He was always a welcome addition on his mom's shows, with viewers often feeling like he was a part of their own families.

In an emotional post, the 42-year-old wrote:

This guy passed away today. Thank you to everyone who has sent so many goodies, doggy treats, toys, clothes, paintings, stuffed animals, and everything else over the years. He loved being famous and getting recognized, especially without me. So many people loved him, and i really appreciate that and so did he. My favorite memory of Chunk is when I was paddle boarding on the Hudson River in upstate NY and he was following me on the shoreline by the trees, and finally jumped in and swam a quarter of a mile to get on my paddle board with me. I cried that day at how much he loved me. And, today I'm crying because of how much I loved him. My chunky monkey. I love you, baby. Softest doggy in the world. 💛❤️💛a true gentleman.A post shared by Chelsea Handler (@chelseahandler) on Jan 18, 2018 at 1:09pm PST

She also tweeted:

Additionally, the fluff master's Twitter page had this to say of the news:

Chunk was nine-years-old when the author rescued him from a kill shelter back in 2009. He was a German Shepherd-Chow mix.

It's sad enough on its own, but even sadder when you remember she lost her other dog, Tammy, back in August. What a hard time this must be.

Rest in peace, Chunk. We hope you, Tammy, and Chelsea meet again one day.

Donald Trump Had Stormy Daniels Spank Him With A Forbes Magazine Featuring Ivanka On The Cover?!?

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 04:52 PM PST

We just keep getting more details about Donald Trump's alleged affair with porn star Stormy Daniels. Disturbing details...

See, the President's lawyer reportedly paid off the adult film actress to sign a confidentiality agreement when she was about to spill all to the press just before the election -- but she had already told quite a few people before then.

We've already heard from her pal Alana Evans and her own 2011 account of the affair. Now Mother Jones did some digging and found even MORE salacious deets in emails between the adult film actress and political operatives.

Related: Fox News Reportedly 'Killed' Story Of Trump's Affair Before Election!

Yeah. Stormy Daniels was considering running for Senate.

In 2009, the star of Dripping Wet Sex 4 was thinking of challenging Louisiana's David Vitter, an anti-LGBT conservative who was caught up in a sex scandal, with a simple slogan:

"Stormy Daniels: Screwing people honestly."

Love it.

The subject of Trump came up when Stormy showed one of the political advisers a list of potential campaign donors whose phone numbers she happened to have -- a list which also included Larry Flynt's daughter and Jenna Jameson.

That adviser sent an email to Democratic consultant Andrea Dubé who was surprised she knew Trump, writing:

"Donald Trump? In her cell phone?"

The other adviser replied:

"Yep. She says one time he made her sit with him for three hours watching 'shark week.' Another time he had her spank him with a Forbes magazine."

Wha??

Both Dubé and the unnamed adviser confirmed the emails, which you can see HERE.

Mother Jones notes that she spoke about watching Shark Week in her 2011 interview as well. Butt back to the main event...

Stormy also mentioned to In Touch that Trump showed her a mag with his face on it before they had sex. Just not the spanking bit.

While it's unclear which cover it was, Mother Jones does make a point to note the Fall 2006 cover of Forbes (fitting the Stormy/Trump timeline) -- and no, it doesn't just have his mug on it. That's Don Jr. and... yes, Ivanka Trump with him.

What. The. Fuck.

That's our president. Excuse us while we go watch Barack Obama on David Letterman and cry now.

You Have To See THIS Former Disney Star's Epic Mug Shot!

Posted: 18 Jan 2018 04:01 PM PST

We bet Raven-Symoné didn't predict this!

On Thursday, former That's So Raven star Orlando Brown allegedly got into a loud argument with his girlfriend and her mother in Barstow, California. After the cops were called, they discovered there were active warrants for both him and his GF's madre!

Related: That's So Raven: Where Are They Now?

As we reported in 2016, the Disney star was arrested for allegedly hitting his girlfriend in a police station parking lot while having meth on him. It's unclear if this girlfriend is the same one previously mentioned.

He was taken to jail for battery against a spouse, resisting arrest, and possession of a controlled substance.

Despite the drama, Brown appears to be in good spirits, as seen in his (above) smiley mug shot.

He was previously charged for drunkenly threatening a woman and her child back in 2014.

Khloé Kardashian isn't going to let her ex-husband bring her down!

After Lamar Odom said on Mancave he knew things between him and KoKo were done "when she was with her second or third NBA ball player," sister Kim Kardashian clapped back and made a jab at his "brothel" visits.

Although she (as of this writing) has not released a statement, she approved the following tweets -- including Kimmy's -- about Odom's drug and alcohol use, and how she stood by his side during his health scare:


The KarJenners are the queens of the clap back!
