Rachel Platten Is 'Embarrassed' After Flubbing National Anthem: 'My Mind Just Went Blank'

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 06:26 PM PDT

Poor Rachel Platten!

As we reported, on Saturday, the Fight Song singer pulled a Fergie and gave a messed up performance of the national anthem at the NWSL soccer game between the Utah Royals and the Chicago Red Stars at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah.

Not only did she seemingly forget the lyrics to The Star-Spangled Banner, she restarted her performance twice.

In an interview with People published on Tuesday, the songstress admits she is extremely "embarrassed" by the entire fiasco.

She told the publication:

"I feel really embarrassed, honestly. I'm having a hard time forgiving myself, but I'm working on it. It was incredibly, incredibly embarrassing... I've been trying to retrace steps of what happened … it has just been hanging over me."

When it came time to her performance, the musician's mind "just went blank." She explained:

"I have done it a bunch of times, but I stepped in front of the people and I felt the expectation. I was ready to open up and do it, and my mind just went blank... I was trying to explain it to my husband: It was like a test that you know all the material to, you study so much and you get in there, and your mind doesn't cooperate."

Despite her humiliating flubs, she held it together and finished the song to the end.

"I was proud that I was able to finish… I actually can't believe I didn't forget more words and that I was able to complete the song. So I'm kind of shocked... 'What I'm not going to do is run away. I really want to run out of the stadium right now, but I'm not going to do that. I'm going to finish this song.'"

At the end of the day, Platten is trying to move on from the incident, and to learn from her "mistake."

"None of us are perfect; I'm not perfect... I really understand how it feels to not like something about yourself or have a big flaw. This is an opportunity to own that message more and hopefully share it more powerfully."

Don't be so hard on yourself, girl! It was horrible to watch, for sure, but you definitely weren't the first!

Love Em Or Over Em? Is The Walking Dead DEAD?!

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 06:13 PM PDT

The Walking Dead may still be trudging forward. But is it slowly rotting from a zombie bite??

AMC's flagship show took a big ratings hit on Sunday; according to Nielsen's ratings the live viewership of season 8's finale was down a whopping 30% from last season! Ouch!

Sunday's episode scored 7.9 million live viewers, which is still quite a big number for a basic cable show. But when you consider season 7's finale had 11.3 million, it can't be good.

And that was down from Season 6's 14.2 mil, which was in turn down from season 5's series high of 15.8 million live viewers -- TWICE what Sunday's episode got. In fact, Wrath is the lowest rated finale since SEASON 1!

Is the writing on the wall, and does it say "Don't Dead Open Inside"?

What do YOU think, Perezcious group?

Barbara Bush Dead At 92

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 04:59 PM PDT

Former first lady Barbara Bush has died at the age of 92.

As we reported, it was announced over the weekend that Mrs. Bush had decided to seek comfort care rather than continue additional medical care as the state of her health declined. On Tuesday, she passed away.

George H.W. Bush's office confirmed the news of his wife's death in a statement, saying:

"A former First Lady of the United States of America and relentless proponent of family literacy, Barbara Pierce Bush passed away Tuesday, April 17, 2018 at the age of 92. She is survived by her husband of 73 years, President George H. W. Bush, five children and their spouses; 17 grandchildren; seven great grandchildren; and her brother, Scott Pierce. She was preceded in death by her second child, Pauline Robinson "Robin" Bush, and her siblings Martha Rafferty and James R. Pierce. The official funeral schedule will be announced as soon as is practical."

Barbara was the matriarch of an American dynasty -- the wife of the 41st president of The United States of America and the mother of the 43rd, George W. Bush.

George W. released his own statement, remembering his mother fondly:

"Laura, Barbara, Jenna, and I are sad, but our souls are settled because we know hers was. Barbara Bush was a fabulous First Lady and a woman unlike any other who brought levity, love, and literacy to millions. To us she was so much more. Mom kept us on our toes and kept us laughing until the end. I'm a lucky man that Barbara Bush was my mother. Our family will miss her dearly, and we thank you all for your prayers and good wishes."

Our condolences go out to her family, friends, and loved ones.

Zayn Malik DUMPED By His Management Over 'Abusive' Attitude!

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 04:37 PM PDT

Ouch! Zayn Malik has been broken up with again! And so soon after last time...

This split is with manager Sarah Stennett of First Access Entertainment who'd apparently had too much of the former One Direction singer's diva attitude.

Stennett confirmed the news to Variety, saying somewhat diplomatically:

"Sometimes in life you have to make extremely difficult decisions to effect positive change for everyone."

Um, what does that mean exactly??

Video: Zayn Had Just Released His High Budget Music Video For Let Me

Sources told the trade Zayn is "challenging to work with, declining many promotional opportunities and not touring behind his last album." But that may be just the start.

The Sun has sources spilling much hotter tea. They say Malik had gotten "verbally abusive" with the staff.

Apparently things have only gotten worse since Zayn's breakup with Gigi Hadid last month!

And it finally got to be too much for the First Access co-founder. A source explains:

"Sarah's been trying to make the relationship work for two years but Zayn's hot-headed and has let his tongue run away with him one too many times."

Considering the singer is still reportedly planning a tour for his new album, it's a bad time not to have representation...

Innerestingly, First Access also cut ties with Ellie Goulding earlier this year. They currently still rep Bebe Rexha, Rita Ora, and more.

Does Zayn strike YOU as tough to work with??

A Popular CGI Instagram Model Apparently Just Got Hacked By A Less Popular, Pro-Trump Insta Model — And It's The Weirdest Thing EVER!

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 04:14 PM PDT

Nowadays, you don't even need to be a real person to get into a social media fight...

In case you aren't familiar, Lil Miquela (insert, above) is described by Refinery29 as a "19-year-old Brazilian-American Instagram 'influencer,' model, and occasional pop singer."' Despite being computer-generated, Miquela acts like a living, breathing human being; she takes selfies, leans against cars, and hangs out with her friends at bars.

Related: Uber's Self-Driving Car Just Killed A Pedestrian!

Sadly, on Tuesday, the popular personality apparently got hacked by another CGI Insta model who just so happens to support Donald Trump. Introducing...

Bermuda!

Not only did Miquela's photos get mysteriously deleted, Bermuda popped up on her Insta page with a creepy AF message!

Hi guys! Bermuda here. . Soooo... you're being lied to by a fake a*s person. Literally who is buying this for one second? Apparently a lot of you. I don't blame you. My girl's a great liar. . Sorry, Miquela. I tried to DM, I tried to call but you "stay curving" me. . You brought this on yourself, girl 😘 Leave me a comment if you care about the truth, k? 😘 Go follow @bermudaisbae #literallyperfect #BermudaTriangle #theNextStep #hotterinBermuda #learntotalk #discourseA post shared by *~ MIQUELA ~* (@lilmiquela) on Apr 17, 2018 at 12:02pm PDT

That same day, Miquela confirmed the hack on Twitter:


While Miquela generally pretends to be a real person, Bermuda is upfront with the fact that she was created by a company called Cain Intelligence apparently run by a guy named Daniel Cain. According to its website, the entity describes itself as "leaders in machine learning and artificial intelligence," who endorsed Trump in the 2016 election.

Since so many of you are curious, let's get to know each other. Unlike SOME people, I'm not hiding anything: I came into this world in 2016. I proudly call Cain Intelligence my home and I consider the amazing people that work there to be family. . Daniel Cain is a literal genius moving this country forward without any real thank you or acknowledgment. . You can see what we do at cainintelligence.com . Authentically himself, he's never been afraid to say what he believes. He also taught me that part of believing things is being able to defend them and to do that you have to be willing to listen. He taught me to be proud of who I am. How could I not be? I'm the Next Step. Imagine... taking pride in who you are... and sticking up for your own kind @lilmiquela. What a crazy idea!!!! Go follow @bermudaisbae #literallyperfect #BermudaTriangle #theNextStep #hotterinBermuda #learntotalk #discourseA post shared by *~ MIQUELA ~* (@lilmiquela) on Apr 17, 2018 at 1:02pm PDT

Bermuda -- who has beefed with Miquela since September of last year -- takes issue with the fact that some people believe her rival could actually be a real person.

Miquela, literally what the f*ck have you been saying to people on here??? They actually think you're a PERSON. I'm literally snorting with laughter right now reading through your DMs + comments. "Do you think it's an art thing?" "Is she a model?" "Are you REAL?" I tried to reach out to you but now you made a b*tch play dirty. . I'm about to raise some real Hell on your account (in a Christian way obviously). . In case you can't tell, this account is #NotMine but I took it over #OnMyOwn Go follow @bermudaisbae #literallyperfect #BermudaTriangle #theNextStep #hotterinBermuda #learntotalk #discourseA post shared by *~ MIQUELA ~* (@lilmiquela) on Apr 17, 2018 at 2:01pm PDT

Speaking of Miquela's identity, one day before Bermuda's takeover, a Twitter user potentially discovered the key to unlocking the model's true nature.


Ronnie Blawko -- who appears to be another CGI social media personality -- follows Brud, a problem solving technology company, that Miquela tags in her photos.

Is Brud or Ronnie Blawko the key to figuring out Miquela's real self?? Who knows!

After the news of Bermuda's hack broke out, Paper magazine published a potential political theory regarding the drama. They wrote:

"At this point, little is clear. Whether this is the work of marketing geniuses, constructing a spectacular scam to bring attention to both the pages of Lil Miquela and Bermuda (who goes by bermudaisbae), all the while analyzing how we react online to racially ambiguous, beautiful, stylish, 'Black Lives Matter' supporter versus a pro-gun, Tomi Lahren-loving, Aryan Republican, or a genuine 'hack' by a graphic designer or two hungry for attention, we just don't know."'

Weird, weird, weird...

Hollywood Medium Tyler Henry Confirms He Saw Khloé Kardashian's 'Relationship Issues' Coming — But The Timing Was 'Horrible'!

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 03:47 PM PDT

Did Tyler Henry warn Khloé Kardashian about Tristan Thompson months ahead of his alleged cheating coming to light?

Way back in June 2017, Khloé sat down with the Hollywood Medium, who mentioned picking up on messages about her "next boyfriend" even though she was happy with Tristan at the time.

Video: Tyler Helps Solve The Mystery Surrounding Chad Michael Murray's Grandmother's Death

Now he seems a bit vindicated in his warning. During an interview on the Zach Sang Show, he confirms he kinda predicted this:

"Well, I saw some relationship issues, yeah..."

When asked how he felt about the news as it came out, he was very focused on the Revenge Body star's feelings:

"I was sad. I was sad for her. I mean, the timing is just horrible. I can't imagine having to go through that. But I think getting the validation... Sometimes having information beforehand can be helpful to help a person navigate it. And I hope the information I gave her is helping her navigate."

Well, Khloé hasn't broken up with Tristan yet -- so we're guessing she hasn't fully accepted Tyler as her navigator.

Rob Kardashian Will NEVER Forgive Tristan Thompson For The Cheating Scandal Right Before Khloé Kardashian Gave Birth!

Posted: 17 Apr 2018 03:21 PM PDT

Tristan Thompson's done poked the bear!

By bear, we mean the perpetually hibernating Rob Kardashian -- who is reportedly "furious" at the NBA star for allegedly cheating on his sister Khloé Kardashian throughout her pregnancy.

Related: Khloé Is Now Alone In Cleveland With Her Newborn

Though the 31-year-old has yet to publicly address the news, a source tells People that he'll never forgive Tristian for cheating on his sister, as the scandal hits close to his own personal drama with Blac Chyna.

The insider dished:

"Khloé has always been there for Rob and he hates that she was hurt — he knows what it feels like to be screwed over by someone you trusted… Rob won't forgive Tristan for this."

And if you don't have Rob's trust, what DO you have? (A restraining order and a pile of regular socks, probably.)

Reltaed: Even Brody Jenner Knows This Is A 'Fucking Mess'

Of course, the sock mogul isn't the only family member pissed off at the allegedly unfaithful Cleveland Cavaliers player. As we reported, both Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West find the behavior of Koko's baby daddy "disgusting" -- Kim in particular.

While she'd apparently rather see her sister leave the alleged serial cheater, a source told People that Kimmy will support any decision the new momma makes:

"Kim is very protective of Khloé and is especially upset. She can't imagine Khloé will stay with Tristan, but will support her sister either way."

We're sure she'll do whatever's best for KUWTK S15 her daughter True Thompson!
