The Bachelor Alum Arie Luyendyk Jr. STILL Just Can't Figure Out Why He's So Unpopular…

Posted: 28 May 2018 11:54 AM PDT

There's a new, fascinating profile out in GQ of The Bachelor alum Arie Luyendyk Jr., and it's clear from reading the longform piece that the former racecar driver still can't quite figure out why people don't like him...

But he's on the right track when he points out that awful breakup from Becca Kufrin at the end of last season's final episode only to turn around and choose Lauren Burnham in her place!!!

GQ dives deep on Arie's new, private life in Scottsdale, Arizona alongside Lauren, and while the entire piece makes for a fascinating read (seriously, read it HERE), one part really stands out.

It centers on that brutal breakup scene with Becca last season, and how Arie -- instead of taking blame for one of the most excruciating scenes in Bachelor history -- seems more content to throw everyone else under the bus for it (below):

After talking to Lauren on New Years Day, he went to the Bachelor producers with his dilemma. That's when they pitched bringing in cameras to capture the breakup. If they filmed it, they told him, they could share that story with America, make sure that Bachelor Nation fully understood that he was being respectful and just following his heart. "'Then we can show you going back to Lauren, and people are going to rally behind you because you took this big risk and you did it for love,'" according to his telling. "'At the end of the day, people will just want to see you happy.'" In his head, it really was the only plausible option.

You've got to understand, he tells me, these people were my friends. He'd just spent months with the crew. He trusted them. But now? He feels "100 percent" betrayed.

Take the breakup with Becca, billed by the show as "the first completely unedited scene in reality television history." In the excruciating 40 minutes that aired, Becca repeatedly asks Arie to leave the house where—before he dumped her—they were supposed to be having a romantic getaway. Painfully, he sticks around, even knocking on the bathroom door as she cries to ask if she's okay. "OF COURSE SHE'S NOT OKAY!" I yelled at my TV when I watched the scene unfold. "YOU JUST BROKE OFF YOUR ENGAGEMENT!!!"

"It was completely edited," Arie says. "I was told to stay on that couch. I tried to leave, and then production was like, 'You need to go back inside. She's finally calming down. I feel like you owe it to her to have this conversation.' So then I went back in the house."

Really? You tried to leave and they wouldn't let you?

"Yeah. I left, came back. I stepped away from the couch, I went back to the couch." But they kept talking him into staying. "They cut out, obviously, production talking to me from 10 feet away," he says, and calling it unedited "was super unfair to me." (A spokesman for Warner Bros., which handles production for The Bachelor, declined to comment.)

Hmmm...

Seems like a tough sell that a guy who spends so much time on reality TV and knows *exactly* how the business goes would suddenly fall back on the old-and-used-up excuse that "oh, it was edited to portray me poorly," and "it's all the editor's fault."

Save it, pal.

Of course, when you see what Arie does at the end of the GQ interview, you'll further understand just why he's SO FUCKIN' UNPOPULAR!

Seriously, read the whole piece and find out the weird twist at the end of it HERE.

Ivanka Trump Draws Criticism For Tone-Deaf Photo With Son Amid Missing Migrant Children Crisis

Posted: 28 May 2018 10:59 AM PDT

Not a good look for Ivanka Trump...

Reports surfaced this week that her father Donald Trump's presidential administration has completely lost track of 1,500 migrant children who entered the country with their parents and families across the Mexican border.

And while that alone is drawing scorn from all corners of American life, Ivanka made things worse with a very tone-deaf photo opp.

Yesterday, Ivanka posted this pic of her alongside 2-year-old son Theodore on her Instagram and Twitter accounts (below):

Very, very quickly, it drew the ire of thousands of Twitter users who couldn't help but see the unfortunate -- and uncaring -- parallels here between Ivanka's child and the missing migrant children.

The reactions came in swiftly (below):

Keep calling her out!!

Keep calling her out!!

By being a part of this administration, Ivanka Trump IS complicit!!

Oh, and doubly so considering China has approved THIRTEEN new Ivanka Trump trademarks in the last three months, according to reports.

Fuck this corrupt, self-dealing, money-grubbing administration!!!

Eminem And Nicki Minaj Continue To Flirt Publicly, While Hinting At Possible Future Collab?! Watch!

Posted: 28 May 2018 09:50 AM PDT

Even though Eminem and Nicki Minaj aren't together (uh, we think?!), they sure aren't afraid to publicly flirt and mess with everybody by doing it!

During a concert last night in Boston, Massachusetts, Eminem addressed the rumors of the two of them together, and asked the crowd in front of him as to whether they approved of the hip hop stars being a "power couple."

He also asked Nicki on a date during the concert, as you can see in the video (below) -- which Nicki quickly responded to later !!!

Ha!!!

And Nicki was quick on the uptake, responding right away with the perfect message (below):

Too funny!!

Love it!!

But seriously... while dating may or may not ever be in the cards for these two, can we seriously talk about a collab in the studio?! Because THAT would be AH-Mazing!!!

That needs to happen!!

Solo: A Star Wars Story Lands FAR Behind Expectations At Memorial Day Weekend Box Office

Posted: 28 May 2018 08:53 AM PDT

This is not how they were planning things to go!

Solo: A Star Wars Story is struggling mightily at the box office this weekend, bombing both across North America and around the world in an opening well below expectations for the Memorial Day Weekend.

Related: Donald Says Recording With Beyoncé Was "Intimidating"!

The Disney and Lucasfilm production was REALLY sluggish in its debut this weekend, in total bringing in just $84.8 million over the first three days of the weekend across North America, and landing a total $103 million domestic for its four-day holiday weekend debut.

That's well behind expectations for the weekend, and even worse than what had originally been forecasted on Friday before the poor weekend began.

The story overseas is just as bad, too -- Solo rolled out everywhere but Japan over the weekend, at it did bombed pretty much everywhere, bringing in just $65 million TOTAL overseas, including a lowly, miserable $10.1 million in China.

That gives the film a global bow at just $168 million for the entire weekend; many prognosticators thought that the film would easily hit $300 million, but it didn't even come close... yikes!!

Kim Kardashian Is STILL Defending Kanye West On Twitter Amid Public Feud Over Chicago Charity!

Posted: 28 May 2018 07:57 AM PDT

We thought this thing had all but wrapped up when we first reported it earlier this weekend, but it appears Kim Kardashian West has a lot more to say!

And it sounds like nobody should come after her -- or her man -- without expecting consequences!

Photos: Kim Kardashian & Kanye West -- Through The Years!

As we reported earlier this weekend, RhymeFest wrote Kim an open letter asking for help for Donda's House -- the charity the producer founded with Kanye West back in Chicago years ago.

And late yesterday, Kim came with the goods in a lengthy Twitter response to end the feud.

Ch-ch-check it out (below)!

She's clearly not lying about that!!!

Oh, and she also shared a little something beautiful from Wyoming for the weekend, too (below):

That means somebody's in the studio making music this week...

And the fam is spending some quality time together! Loves it!

Meghan Markle And Prince Harry Are Ready For Their Honeymoon, And Now We Know It'll Be In…

Posted: 28 May 2018 07:10 AM PDT

Everybody's been wondering where they might wind up, but now we know... Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are all set to honeymoon at a lodge resort in Alberta, Canada!

According to TMZ, the royal pair will be spending some time soon at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge in Alberta for their post-wedding getaway -- in a 6,000 square foot cabin known as "The Royal Retreat."

Nobody knows quite yet exactly when Harry and Meghan will show up, but we do know that there will be a heavy security presence from both British and Canadian officials when they do arrive.

The cabin and resort itself is considered something of a legendary Canadian paradise, hidden out in the middle of Jasper National Park.

Better yet, it has a long history of high-profile guests!

King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother) stayed there back in 1939, and the current Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip stayed there as recently as 2005.

Celebs vacation there, too, with the likes of Anthony Hopkins, John Travolta, and Bill Gates routinely showing up!

And for movie history buffs... the resort is where Marilyn Monroe and Robert Mitchum filmed the 1954 classic River Of No Return, too.

So there you go!

Sounds like an appropriately stunning place for these two madly-in-love newlyweds!!

Shocking Deaths That Have Rocked Bachelor Nation

Posted: 28 May 2018 07:00 AM PDT

We've grown to love many of the Bachelor/ette contestants over the years.

As you know, Becca Kufrin's journey to love after being blindsided by Arie Luyendyk Jr. begins tonight on ABC.

Sadly, this month will also mark the one-year anniversary of the death of Emily Maynard's former suitor, Michael Nance. He died in late May 2017 due to "multiple drug toxicity." Despite having cocaine, heroin, Clonazepam, and Gabapentin all in his system, Nance's passing has been ruled an accident. So heartbreaking.

To make matters worse, this shocking passing hasn't been the only one that's occurred in recent years...
