Did Calvin Harris Grow That Beard Just To Try To Win A Grammy???

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 06:38 PM PST

What the fuzz??

Calvin Harris tweeted out something so odd, we don't know if he's being completely sarcastic, confessing his thirst, or bragging about an epic troll!

Related: Kimye, Tom Hiddleston, Calvin Harris, & More -- Reputation Decoded!

The Scottish DJ told fans on Twitter he grew that beard he's been sporting for over a year specifically to get nominated for a Grammy!

Is he making fun of an easily manipulated award show? Admitted to doing something completely insane? Or just trying to be funny??

Ch-ch-check out his tweets and decide for yourself (below)!


We don't even know...

At least one follower had a theory it was all about Taylor Swift!


Ouch!

Whatever his initial meaning, Calvin did NOT appreciate the jab:

Ha!

Khloé Kardashian's Dog Gabbana Passes Away: 'She Was My First Child'

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:41 PM PST

A valued member of the Kardashian-Jenner family has passed away...

On Tuesday, Khloé Kardashian announced on Instagram that her dog of 14 years, Gabbana, passed away on Monday night.

The Good American designer posted the (above) photo, and revealed the mutt "filled a significant role in [her] life" and "was [her] first child."

The Revenge Body host shared:

Last night my sweet Gabbana passed away 💔😩 She was more than a pet. She was my first child, my companion and my friend. She was incredible! She made sure I was never lonely even during lonely times. The house will never be the same. I never thought I would be this devastated over loosing a dog but 14 years, is a long time together. She filled a significant role in my life and I'm forever grateful. I love you Goober!! I'll remember you always! 🐾A post shared by Khloé (@khloekardashian) on Jan 30, 2018 at 1:36pm PST

The soon-to-be-mom -- who is seven months pregnant with Tristan Thompson's second child -- took custody of the pet after Kris and (now) Caitlyn Jenner called it quits. The lab was originally adopted with a Chihuahua named Dolce, who was later killed by a coyote.

Both canines were featured on KUWTK, and are presumably named after fashion label Dolce & Gabbana.

Sister Kendall Jenner also paid her respects to the hound on social media:

i'll miss your kisses forever Gooby 💔 i know you're up there swimming, little fishyA post shared by Kendall (@kendalljenner) on Jan 30, 2018 at 12:05pm PST

After receiving an overwhelming amount of love and support from fans, KoKo posted the following message on Twitter thanking everyone for their kind words.


Dogs are truly (wo)man's best friend...

Dozens Of Celebs BUSTED Using Fake (Or Stolen) Twitter Followers — And One May Even Lose His Job!

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:28 PM PST

This is so thirsty!

Remember last year when we found out half of Donald Trump's followers on Twitter were just bots (and we now know probably Russian ones)??

He was far from the only big name with a big fake following either.

Photos: Top 25 Celebrities On Twitter (When You Take Out FAKE Followers)!

While that Twitter audit couldn't necessarily track the source of the bots, it turns out a great many celebs have purposely purchased their followings!

According to an exposé in The New York Times over the weekend, some of these ersatz accounts aren't just bots -- they're stolen identities, complete with photos of the real people they're posing as!

The company allegedly behind the creepy social identity theft is Devumi, and the amount of celebs who have Devumi followers is MASSIVE!

The Times listed 99 celebrities, everybody from Real Housewives stars Lisa Rinna and Sonja Morgan to American Idol alum Clay Aiken to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's controversy-creating wife Louise Linton.

Republicans, Democrats, porn stars, the president of Ecuador -- seriously!

A few celebs actually responded to the story; in some cases they said PR people bought the users without the celeb's knowledge (hmm), in others the stars say they were just experimenting.

LOL!! Diddy Totally Photoshopped French Montana & Fabolous Out Of A Picture — LOOK!

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:12 PM PST

Why so cold, Diddy??

On Sunday at the 2018 Grammys, the top singers, rappers, and musicians of the world celebrated music's biggest night in New York.

In one photo shared by French Montana on Monday, the Unforgettable artist rubbed elbows with heavyweights such as JAY-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Nas, and Fabolous.

As seen here on Twitter:


After seeing the photo, Diddy decided to share it on his Instagram page... minus French and Fab!

3 Kings! 3 GREAT FRIENDS! Love you guys. #BlackGreatnessA post shared by Diddy (@diddy) on Jan 29, 2018 at 7:15pm PST

Not only did Cassie's man crop Fabolous out, he completely Photoshopped French out of the entire snap!

When word of Diddy's savage editing skills broke out, social media users couldn't contain their emotions! They wrote:


Before you think the hip-hop mogul has beef with the two left-out rappers, think again. Not only is French signed to his label Bad Boy, Fab recently made an appearance on Drink Champs -- which is on the Diddy-owned Revolt TV -- where they greeted each other.

This isn't the first time the Sean John designer has been ruthless with the crop tool. After the 2017 Met Gala, he cut both Kendall and Kylie Jenner from the following photo:

Concerned AGAIN For Kylie Jenner's Baby Because…

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 04:34 PM PST

Kylie Jenner has no plans for a nanny or a baby nurse for her new daughter - and we are so worried!

Glee actor Mark Salling killed himself and people are giving us grief because we're not more sensitive in our handling. He's a convicted PEDOPHILE! We should have sympathy?

The radio DJ who was convicted of groping Taylor Swift has a new job and the owner of that station said the most outrageous things!

Speaking of saying outrageous things, Quincy Jones is attacking Taylor Swift's songwriting abilities and we are not going to tolerate that!

And much MORE!

Sorry, Game Of Thrones Fans! Maisie Williams Says Premiere Date Quote Is 'Completely False'!

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 03:41 PM PST

Who told you Game Of Thrones was premiering next spring? NO ONE! Ha!

HBO has only confirmed fans would see the final season next year, but late last week Maisie Williams supposedly narrowed it down to the month.

Video: Watch Maisie React To Possible GoT Endings — While Attached To A Heart Rate Monitor!

She was quoted in multiple outlets as giving the big reveal, saying:

"We wrap in December and we air our first episode in April [2019]. That's a four-month turnaround for these huge episodes. There's a lot that goes into the final edit. You would not want to rush this season at all. We owe it to our audience and our fans to really do this final season to the best of our abilities."

Apparently that was NOT what she said! Arya herself tweeted out the correction, saying:

Innerestingly, the Metro interview everyone was citing now has this as the quote:

"We wrap in December and we air our first episode in 2019. There's a lot that goes into the final edit. You would not want to rush this season at all. We owe it to our audience and our fans to really do this final season to the best of our abilities."

So was Maisie misquoted? Or did HBO send a shadow baby over to stick a sword in the story??

Substitute Teacher Arrested For Allegedly Performing Oral Sex On A Sleeping Male Student

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 03:27 PM PST

A former substitute teacher has been arrested for allegedly performing a sex act on a 17-year-old student while he was asleep.

According to court documents, Manuel Gamboa was a substitute teacher at Dekaney High School when he invited a male student into his home on June 3.

The 35-year-old gave his teenage guest "several beers" and, after the student became dizzy, invited him to stay the night so his parents wouldn't know about his drinking.

The student told officials he didn't feel well and lied down on the living room sofa bed to sleep. When the student woke up the next morning, Gamora was next to him and allegedly smacked his buttocks when he walked towards the bathroom.

After taking Gamboa's phone to call his mother, the teen allegedly found 10 sexually explicit videos and photos of the substitute teacher performing oral sex on him while he was asleep.

The student said he deleted the videos before meeting with his parents and underwent a sexual assault exam, which, according to the Dallas Morning News, confirmed evidence of DNA on the victim that was not his own.

The student, who speaks little English, told officials he did not give consent to any sexual advances. He said Gamboa was "like a mentor to him" and helped with his homework.

Gamboa was arrested last Wednesday and charged with an improper relationship with a student and sexual assault. The Spring Independent School District fired Gamboa, issuing the following statement after his arrest:

"Immediately upon notification by Harris County of potential pending charges against Mr. Gamboa, a substitute teacher in the district, he was removed from our substitute pool. The safety of our students is our highest priority. The criminal history and references of job applicants, including those who apply to serve as substitutes, are routinely checked before they are hired."

Adele IS Dolly Parton's Doppelgänger!

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 03:02 PM PST

We need to hear Adele's cover of Jolene RIGHT NOW!

On Tuesday, the Hello singer shared the (above) photo on social media where she dresses up as one of her icons: Dolly Parton!

We have to say... the resemblance is quite uncanny! The 29-year-old added the caption:

"The effortless queen of song, Dolly Parton! We love you! We wish We could possess an ounce of your ability. You were the hero of our night! A hero of my life. I'll always love you x"

On Instagram, Miz Parton responded to the touching tribute by writing:

While it's unclear why Adele dressed up, we are totally living for it!

Mark Salling's Family Reported The 'Isolated' Celeb Missing Before Apparent Suicide

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 02:44 PM PST

This is just really awful all around.

As we reported, Mark Salling was found dead this morning after an apparent suicide. The Glee star was a month away from facing sentencing after pleading guilty to possession of child pornography involving a prepubescent minor.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, a family member alerted authorities that the 35-year-old was missing at 3 a.m. on Tuesday.

Emergency dispatch audio obtained by The Blast described Salling, who was last seen around 11:30 p.m. on Monday, as "suffering from depression and [being] suicidal." Cops noted he was wearing a black long sleeve shirt, black pants, and driving a black Infinity. He was later found dead at 9 a.m. near a riverbed in Sunland, California.

In the days leading up to his shocking death, sources said the troubled actor lived an isolated life in seclusion.

An insider explained to People:

"He was close with his family, but as far as friends go -- he maybe had those acquaintances he communicated with every once in a while, but he pretty much isolated himself. He didn't really have a relationship with too many people."

The source went on to describe Mark as a "charismatic" guy who was "never really into drugs":

"The Mark I knew was charismatic, he was funny, he was musically talented -- he was a really cool person ... This other dark side of him was completely shocking to everyone close to him. Close people who didn't talk to him are still sad about it. They loved him because of the person he was before all of this happened. There's a level of sadness with everyone, but the sadness is from afar."

It sounds like Salling's former pals were already mourning the Mark they thought they knew before the child porn confession -- even before his death.

Another source, who admittedly hadn't spoken with the musician in a while, added that he cut off (or was cut off from) everyone except his immediate family and roommate. She revealed:

"His career was off the boil, though; he was kind of the quarterback that peaked in high school, still dining out on Glee. Eventually, though, he started to focus on his music, which seemed like a good thing. That's where he should have been focused to start with. But then the child porn thing came out, and people were so shocked. … It quickly started to become clear it was real, and then the few people still around him iced him out."

But before everything went down, Mark seemed to be Mr. Popular:

"Mark was fun, he had the charisma -- sure, some was because he was on a show, but he also had that X factor you know? He always had girls around him."

We guess nothing is ever as it seems.

Luann de Lesseps Is Working On 'Plan B' After Drunken December Arrest

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 02:09 PM PST

Luann de Lesseps is trying to be cool -- not all, like, uncool -- amid the drama!

As we reported, the Real Housewives of New York star was officially slapped with a felony charge for resisting an officer with violence, and misdemeanor charges for trespassing and disorderly intoxication after allegedly getting physical with an official and yelling "I'm going to kill you all" in Palm Beach, Florida last month.
