  • Stana Katic of ‘Castle’ Marries Long-Time Love Kris Brkljac in Romantic Croatian Monastery

    Stana Katic of Castle married her long-time love Kris Brkljac over the weekend in Croatia.

    Stana Katic, whose alter-ego Kate Beckett also married this season, walked down the aisle to become Mrs. Brkljac.

    The 37-year-old bride and her new husband, a business efficiency consultant tied the knot “in a private family monastery on the Dalmatian coast,” according to Stana Katic’s rep, Nancy Seltzer.

    Few other details were released, apart from a snapshot of the couple’s wedding bands.

    According to The Los Angeles Times, Stana Katic, the Canadian-native actress has Croatian and Serbian roots and has been dating Brkljac for several years.

    Not only did Stana Katic celebrate her wedding, she also celebrated her 37th birthday on Sunday.

    She’s played detective Kate Beckett on ABC’s Castle for the past seven seasons, and this season may turn out to be the series’ finale.

    Katic is slated to next appear in writer-director Evan Oppenheimer’s romance The Tourist.

    However, Stana Katic may be thinking of settling down to a simpler life one of these days. She told People magazine earlier this month about her Alternative Travel Project. She told the mag that growing up the child of immigrants inspired her environmentalism today.

    “My ‘normal’ has always been to have a veggie garden and a few fruit trees in the backyard,” she said.

    Maybe Stana Katic will find that somewhere in Croatia!

  • Victoria Beckham ‘So Proud’ of Son Romeo Beckham’s First London Marathon Children’s Race For Charity

    Victoria Beckham has been gushing a lot about her kids over the past few days, and the trend continued Sunday after 12-year-old son Romeo Beckham completed the London Marathon children’s race Sunday morning.

    “We r so proud!! Romeo ran London mini Marathon for UNAIDS and 7 Fund x vb,” Victoria Beckham posted on Instagram early Sunday.

    “Well done Romeo!!” she wrote in a second post.

    She and David Beckham, plus Romeo’s brothers Brooklyn and Cruz, were waiting for Romeo after he crossed the finish line.

    According to Victoria Beckham’s posts, Romeo’s run was in support of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS and the “7” fund, a collaboration with UNICEF, which provides assistance to children in danger zones around the world.

    On Friday, Victoria Beckham, 41, made a rare public appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where she gushed about her four children with husband David Beckham, Brooklyn,16, Romeo, 12, Cruz, 10, and little three-year-old Harper.

    Ellen DeGeneres reminded Victoria that the last time she appeared on the show — about seven years ago — she was hoping to someday have a daughter.

    “You were hoping to someday have a girl,” DeGeneres said “And now you do! You have Harper.”

    Well done Romeo!! We r all so proud!! Running @londonmarathon for UNAIDS and 7 Fund x vb

    Victoria Beckham acknowledged the truth of the statement and raved about her daughter and all of her munchkins.

    “She’s amazing,” Victoria Beckham said. “All our kids are amazing. I mean, they’re really good kids. You know, they work hard at school. They’re happy. They’re funny. They are just really good kids, and she’s so great.”

    Victoria Beckham told DeGeneres that the boys take good care of their little sister and have rubbed off on her.

    “The boys are great with her,” she said. “She’s a little tomboy. You know, she loves to wear little dresses, but then, she loves to put her football boots on and get in the garden with her brothers, and have a little rough and tumble. Which I think is great.”

    Thank you for having me back @TheEllenShow – laughed so much! Love her! x vb

  • Melissa Rivers Remembers Mom Joan Rivers in Moving Daytime Emmys’ Tribute

    Melissa Rivers gave a moving tribute to her mom, Joan Rivers, at Sunday’s Daytime Emmy Awards Ceremony, just eight months after the iconic comedian lost her life during routine throat surgery at the age of 81.

    Joan Rivers won a Daytime Emmy Award in 1990 and a clip of her acceptance speech was aired at the Emmy ceremony Sunday. Following the clip, Melissa Rivers took to the stage to remember her mother in a touching speech.

    “After some terrible lows in my mom’s life, both personally and professionally, the cancellation of her late-night talk show and the unimaginable loss of my dad would’ve probably been more than most people could bear,” Melissa began, referring to Edgar Rosenberg’s 1987 suicide. “But not my mother. She refused to give up. And the daytime television community saved her.”

    Joan famously struggled after her late night show was canceled after just one season. It took two years before she would return for the highly successful The Joan Rivers Show.

    “It ran for five years, and brought her the only Emmy she would ever win,” Melissa shared. “This strong foundation reinvigorated her career, and my mother felt loved and valued by the daytime community, and for that I will always be grateful.”

    Joan Rivers mentioned those difficult times in the clip of her 1990 Emmy win shown Sunday.

    “Two years ago, I couldn’t get a job in this business. I could not get a job,” she said at the time. “My income dropped to one-sixteenth of what it was before I was fired. And people said I wouldn’t work again. And my husband, as you know, had a breakdown.”

    Tearfully, she continued: “It’s so sad that he’s not here, because it was husband, Edgar Rosenberg, who always said, ‘You can turn things around.’ And except for one terrible moment in a hotel room in Philadelphia when he forget that, this is really for him. Because he was with me from the beginning, and I’m so sorry he’s not here.”

    Melissa Rivers said her mother enjoyed more success than any one could have imagined after some very trying years.

    “She went on to have 24 more fabulous years,” Melissa said Sunday, “and I got to enjoy all of them with her, as her producer, her business partner, her costar, and the best part was as her daughter.”

    What did you think of Melissa Rivers’ speech?

  • Scott Disick Didn’t Watch Bruce Jenner’s Interview Because Allegedly He Finds It ‘Weird’

    Scott Disick reportedly didn’t watch Bruce Jenner’s revealing 20/20 interview on Friday night because he allegedly finds the whole thing “weird.”

    According to Hollywood Life, Scott Disick chose not to gather with other family members to watch Jenner’s interview, choosing instead to party it up in Las Vegas.

    According to an insider for Hollywood Life, Scott Disick made his choice to forego the gathering because he thinks Bruce Jenner’s transition to a woman is “weird.”

    “Scott thinks the whole situation is weird and was talking to friends and cracking jokes about Bruce’s special throughout the night. He had no intention to watch the show with Bruce and the rest of the family and he doesn’t even want to watch the show now,” allegedly said the insider.

    Scott Disick has not shown any support for his step-father-in-law either.

    According to reports, Scott was spotted partying at the Las Vegas nightclub, 1 OAK, over the weekend.

    Meanwhile, Bruce Jenner was the recipient of lots family support. Kris Jenner told Perez Hilton on Twitter that she was sitting right next to Jenner and watching the interview with him on Friday night. Others there included Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian and Kylie and Kendall Jenner.

    On Monday, Kim Kardashian appeared on the Today Show and said she supports Bruce’s decision 100 percent. Jenner’s first wife, Chrystie Crownover, also offered strong support in an interview with George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America.

    “[It] was kind of surreal. It was great because the family was together and that’s what I’m most proud of. I know it’s been painful for him. I know it’s been a torment in his life,” Chrystie Crownover told Stephanopoulos.

    Should Scott Disick have been with the family watching the interview on Friday?

  • Chrissy Teigen Vows to Never Photoshop Herself For Social Media

    Chrissy Teigen is vowing to never photoshop pics she posts to social media again.

    She recently told Meredith Vieira that models who Photoshop their pictures on social media are dishonest.

    “I’ve seen these women in person,” Chrissy Teigen said. “They are not like that. Please know that. I have shot in barely anything with them, and it’s just amazing what people do to tweak themselves.”

    Chrissy Teigen said the practice of photoshopping has gotten out of hand.

    “The standard is so ridiculous. I mean, people are nip-tucking. It’s gotten to the point where they’re not just smoothing their skin. They are actually changing the shape of their body. Nobody can compare to that when you’re fixing yourself so much. It’s so unfair. It started with Botox and everything, of course. But now it’s just grown into this Photoshop phenomenon.”

    Recently, Chrissy Teigen posted an Instagram photo, complete with bruises and stretch marks on her legs.

    “I’m working on a cookbook, so I was bumping around the kitchen all the time and every door handle would just nick me every single time, and I was actually just taking a picture of the bruises and then I saw the stretch marks in there,” Chrissy Teigen told Vieira. “I have those apps, those Facetunes, those Photoshopping ones, and I just didn’t feel like doing it anymore — and I’m never doing it again, because I think we forgot what normal people look like now.”

    Chrissy captioned her pic, “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!”

  • Nikki Reed Reportedly Marries ‘The Vampire Diaries’ Star Ian Somerhalder

    Nikki Reed Reportedly Marries ‘The Vampire Diaries’ Star Ian Somerhalder

    Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder of The Vampire Diaries are reportedly married.

    According to E! Online, the couple took their vows in Santa Monica on Sunday.

    In the photos making the rounds, Nikki Reed, 26, is pictured wearing a long-sleeve, backless gown along with her groom, who is seen sporting a white suit.

    Earlier that morning, Ian Somerhalder tweeted, “most beautiful morning ever…”

    Nikki Reed and her new husband reportedly celebrated their union with close family and friends at an outdoor ceremony.

    “Nikki couldn’t be more excited and thrilled to be marrying Ian,” an insider told Us Weekly. “They’re both so in love and so happy.”

    The couple became engaged in January after dating for a mere six months. However, it wasn’t a total surprise for those who know them well.

    “They were friends before, the groundwork had been laid before,” a source previously told Us. “They had always been attracted to each other, but always in another relationship.”

    Ian Somerhalder, who made his first walk down the aisle with Nikki Reed, dated his TVD costar Nina Dobrev for three years until their split in May 2013. Nikki Reed was previously married to American Idol season 10 alum Paul McDonald until they divorced in March 2014.

    A few weeks after the engagement news, Nikki Reed gushed to E! News of her fiancé, “He’s the best. He’s the most thoughtful human being on the planet.”

  • Sophia Bush Turns Grief Into Something Meaningful

    Sophia Bush continues to mourn the loss of her former boyfriend and good pal, Dan Fredinburg, who was among the many killed in an avalanche on Mt. Everest Saturday. The avalanche was triggered by a massive earthquake in Nepal that has had a devastating loss of life.

    However, instead of mending her wounds, Sophia Bush is trying to make a difference in the late Google exec’s name by sharing a link to his crowdrise fundraising site on Twitter.

    “Our friend Dan Fredinburg was climbing Everest on behalf of OrphanGift in support of two Nepali orphanages when the earthquake struck. Please donate to honor his memory and carry on his mission. All funds will help OrphanGift provide urgent aid for the children effected by the disaster and restoring structural damage,” wrote Sophia Bush.

    There are no adequate words. Today I find myself attempting to pick up the pieces of my heart that have broken into such tiny shards, I'll likely never find them all. Today I, and so many of my loved ones, lost an incredible friend. Dan Fredinburg was one-of-a-kind. Fearless. Funny. A dancing robot who liked to ride dinosaurs and chase the sun and envision a better future for the world. His brain knew how to build it. His heart was constantly evolving to push himself to make it so. He was one of my favorite human beings on Earth. He was one of the great loves of my life. He was one of my truest friends. He was an incredible brother, a brilliant engineer, and a damn good man. I'm devastated and simultaneously so deeply grateful to have known and loved him, and to have counted him as one of my tribe. I was so looking forward to our planned download of "all the things" when he got home. I am crushed that I will never hear that story. I am crushed knowing that there are over 1,000 people in Nepal suffering this exact feeling, knowing that they too will never hear another tale about an adventure lived from someone that they love. Disasters like this are often unquantifiable, the enormity is too much to understand. Please remember that each person who is now gone was someone's Dan. Please remember that our time on this Earth is not guaranteed. Please tell those you love that you do. Right now. This very minute. And please send a kiss to the sky for my friend Dan. His energy is so big and so bright, and it's all around us, so put some love toward him today. And then hug your loved ones again. #goodbyesweetfriend #savetheice #Nepal #AdventureswithDAN

    Sophia Bush took to Instagram on Saturday to post a lengthy, emotional message after she learned of his death.

    “Today I find myself attempting to pick up the pieces of my heart that have broken into such tiny shards, I’ll likely never find them all,” she wrote. “Today I, and so many of my loved ones, lost an incredible friend. Dan Fredinburg was one-of-a-kind. Fearless. Funny.”

    More than $28,000 has been raised in Fredinburg’s memory.

    Sophia Bush bravely stepped out later Saturday night to honor a prior commitment to attend the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

    The death toll in Nepal has reached more than 3,700.

  • Salma Hayek Makes First Meaningful Trip to Lebanon, Her Father’s Ancestral Home, For World Premiere of ‘The Prophet’

    Salma Hayek made her first trip to her father’s ancestral homeland of Lebanon on Sunday.

    Salma Hayek is in the country to attend the world premiere of The Prophet, an animated film she produced. The film is based on the book by famed Lebanese philosopher Gibran Khalil Gibran.

    The Prophet is about “the courage to speak up, to believe you are worth being listened to,” according to Salma Hayek.

    On Sunday, Salma Hayek met with Syrian refugee children living in the country. The visit was a promise kept after the 48-year-old actress announced last month that she and her billionaire husband, François-Henri-Pinault, would be donating funds to help build schools for refugees in Lebanon.

    Director Roger Allers, who also directed Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King, accompanied Salma Hayek on the trip.

    “I have been living with the spirit of Gibran for the last three years and it has been a very intimate experience and now to come to his home is very moving,” Allers said.

    Salma Hayek also visited the picturesque mountain village of Bcharre in northern Lebanon on Sunday to pay homage to Khalil Gibran.

    “Let us have a private moment in this place that we dreamt so long to be a part of,” Hayek said before entering the Gibran Museum.

    Salma Hayek, who is also half-Mexican, is scheduled to host a charity gala and auction at a Beirut restaurant to raise money for the Children’s Cancer Center of Lebanon.

  • Keira Knightley Could Not Be More Adorable In Latest Baby Bump Pics

    Keira Knightley is getting close to giving birth to her first child with husband James Righton, and the latest pics of the expectant “mum” could not be more adorable.

    Always beautiful, Keira Knightley absolutely glows now that her due date is approaching.

    In her latest outings, the 30-year-old British actress has been seen in a variety of elegant ensembles.

    On one outing, Keira Knightley sported an all-black dress and jackets, accessorized with comfy sandals.

    Despite this being her first pregnancy and initiation into motherhood, Keira Knightley seems more than ready and unconcerned.

    Joking with Ellen DeGeneres about the “whole birthing plan” idea, Keira Knightley asked the host, “Sorry, but what is the plan apart from to get it out?”

    “There isn’t an option to sort of keep it in, is there?” she said. “So, I’m assuming my plan is to get it out. But apparently there’s more to the plan than that. I don’t know what that is. Still, my plan is to get it out. It will come out.”

    Keira has apparently decided to not find out the sex of her child, but as she waits, she longs for the pleasures on her former, non-pregnant state. She told DeGeneres that at one medical appointment the doctor asked if she had any questions.

    “Yes,” Knightley answered. “When can I drink? Please? I just want a margarita!”

    Husband James is helping her out as much as possible in this area.

    “[James is] having a great time,” Keira Knightley said. “I’m eating for two and he’s drinking for two!”

    Do you think Keira Knightley will have a girl or a boy?

  • Michelle Knight Says She Forgives Ariel Castro ‘In Every Sense of the Way’ Despite 11 Years of Captivity, Rape and Abuse

    Michelle Knight, one of three girls kidnapped, raped and abused for 11 years at the hands of their captor, Ariel Castro, said she forgives the man who put her through years of unimaginable torture.

    On Beyond Candid Thursday, Michelle Knight told Giuliana Rancic that she has forgiven her captor.

    After describing the countless horrors she experienced during her 11 years in captivity, Michelle Knight told Rancic she has learned to forgive Castro.

    “So you can honestly say that you forgive Ariel Castro?” asked Giuliana Rancic on Beyond Candid With Giuliana.

    “Yes, in every sense of the way. Even though other people may not feel like I should, but I feel like I should. It’s like turning dirt into gold,” said Michelle Knight.

    According to Michelle Knight, Ariel Castro tortured her, made her miscarry five times, forced her to eat food she was allergic to and left her to die. And yet, she still has forgiveness in her heart for the man who so mistreated her.

    Michelle Knight conceded that it took a very long time before she was able to arrive at a place of forgiveness, but said it was liberating. She wants others to know of the power of forgiveness and that it is possible to move on despite unimaginable pain.

    Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus escaped in May 2013 after Castro forgot to lock their door when he went out of the home where he held them captive.

    Castro was sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years, but committed suicide by hanging in September 2013.

    Despite her ability to forgive, there are lingering physical and emotional effects of her ordeal. She continues to struggle with eating, suffers headaches and gets sick easily.

    Michelle Knight legally changed her name, and looks forward to a normal future with plans for a home, marriage and children.

    Do you think you could forgive Ariel Castro like Michelle Knight has been able to do?

  • Eva Mendes Becomes the Face of Estée Lauder’s New Dimension Skincare Line

    Eva Mendes has landed a new gig as the face of Estée Lauder’s New Dimension skincare collection.

    “Since my teenage years, I have always admired Estée Lauder, the woman and the brand,” Eva Mendes, 41, said in a statement. “I’m excited to represent New Dimension skincare because I can relate personally to what it stands for — the power we have as women to take control and transform our own beauty.”

    The new campaign will be launched in the fall.

    “As an actress, businesswoman and now a mother, Eva understands the power of transformation that is at the heart of our new approach to beauty,” Estée Lauder’s Global Brand President Jane Hertzmark Hudis said. “Eva’s warmth and approachability will help us share this incredible story with women around the world.”

    The line will include the New Dimension Shape + Fill Expert Serum and a New Dimension Expert Liquid Tape, along with contouring compacts Shape + Sculpt Face Kit and the Shape + Sculpt Eye Kit.

    Eva Mendes, who has a child with Ryan Gosling, told People magazine that she doesn’t have a lot of time to devote to “primping” due to her hectic schedule.

    “I think that I’ve always been the girl who wants to get ready in 10 minutes,” said Eva Mendes. “And unless I’m going to an event, that’s realistic for me. I know what fits. I know what I like. And even down to my makeup I have 5 [products] that I go to that I wear. And when in doubt I put my hair in a head scarf or some kind of head wrap and I’m out the door. It’s not always great — it’s not something that I’m proud of, I just wish I could take my time more. I’m just kind of very rushed. But I’ve been like this before I was an actress, I just wish I could be a little bit more easy and kind of calm.”

    What do you think of the beautiful photos of Eva Mendes for Estée Lauder?

  • Giuliana Rancic Says Jerry O’Donnell Cheated On Her With Geri Halliwell, He Responds

    Giuliana Rancic certainly didn’t take the high road in her new memoir when it came to her former boyfriend Jerry O’Connell.

    Instead, Giuliana Rancic dished on cheating allegations and poor treatment by O’Donnell in her memoir, Going Off Script: How I Survived a Crazy Childhood.

    Sure, the fashion commentator shared her story of cancer and childhood. But, the biggest revelation is Giuliana Rancic’s blatant accusation that Jerry O’Connell cheated on her with Spice Girl Geri Halliwell while they were dating from 2003 to 2004. She also cited several incidences where he treated her with insensitivity.

    Giuliana Rancic wrote of the moment she discovered that O’Connell was cheating on her with Spice Girl Geri Halliwell.

    “I was being two-timed for one of the lesser Spices?” Rancic asked O’Donnell.

    According to the memoir, Jerry O’Connell’s response was pretty insensitive.

    “Yeah, I know. I’m so sorry. I don’t know what happened,” he replied with “as much emotion as the customer-service representative who tells you your bags missed the flight,” according to Giuliana Rancic.

    In 2004, O’Connell once again strayed with Rebecca Romjin, said Giuliana Rancic.

    “Little did I know he was in the VIP area, talking up Rebecca. As a prelude to feeling up Rebecca,” she wrote in her memoir.

    A week later, the actor allegedly flew to Las Vegas and stopped communicating with her.

    Giuliana Rancic said she went to his home hoping to confront O’Connell but received the big breakup notice.

    “Nope. Sorry, homegirl. Things change, but you take care, OK?” he reportedly said.

    While not denying Giuliana Rancic’s allegations, O’Donnell took the high road on Thursday’s Watch What Happens Live.

    “I don’t want to say anything negative,” he said About Giuliana Rancic’s accusations. “She was a very nice girl. We had a very fun time. It was decades ago.” He didn’t confirm or deny Rancic’s allegations.

  • Olsen Twins Return to TV, But Will It Be On the ‘Full House’ Reboot?

    The Olsen twins are definitely returning to TV, but will it be on the Full House reboot?

    Unfortunately, the Olsen twins have yet to complete negotiations with Netflix for the new reboot of Full House, to be called Fuller House.

    However, it looks like Nickelodeon has acquired the rights to much of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s content library. The network already airs Full House reruns on Nick at Nite, but now they will also air the Olsen twins’ other sitcoms as well as many of their movie titles, according to a press release.

    As for Fuller House, the Olsen twins finally spoke out about the new show that will follow D.J. Tanner (Candace Cameron Bure) as she raises her three children with her sister Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) and best friend Kimmy (Andrea Barber).

    According to the Olsen Twins, they were not told about the show at the time the series was announced.

    “We just found out about it today,” Mary-Kate told Women’s Wear Daily on Tuesday. “I guess we’re going to talk to the creators and see what’s happening.”

    Until word comes that the Olsen twins sealed a deal with Netflix, looks like all fans will get is syndicated shows of the girls.

    “Nickelodeon has been at the forefront of kids entertainment for decades. We believe this is the perfect home for our library,” Mary-Kate said in a statement.

    Stay tuned for more news on whether the Olsen twins will return to Fuller House.

  • Lamar Odom May Still Be In Khloe Kardashian’s Heart Because His Initials Are Now Tattoed On Her Hand

    Lamar Odom may still be in Khloe Kardashian’s heart because his initials are now tattoed on her hand.

    Looks like rumors that Khloe is still carrying a torch for Larma Odom may be dead-on correct.

    On Wednesday, Khloe posted a photo to Instagram post that resurrected the rumors about the couple. The focus of the picture is a tattoo on Khloe’s right hand that appears to be the initials of her estranged husband, Lamar Odom, between her right thumb and index finger, along with a heart emoji caption.

    Inquisitr reports that on Khloe’s recent trip to Armenia with sister Kim Kardashian on a personal trip to explore their Armenian heritage, the girls were presented with the gift of a plot of land in Armenia. On the deed, Khloe still bore the name of Lamar Odam — Khloe Kardashian Odom.

    A photo posted by Khloé (@khloekardashian) on

    The couple is still officially married and may stay that way, unless Lamar Odom responds before the end of the month.

    Khloe filed for divorce in December, 2013, but her estranged husband never responded. Now the courts are threatening to dismiss the case unless he responds or Khloe requests a default divorce.

    According to Hollywood Life, if Khloe is still hoping for a reunion, she may be sorely disappointed. Lamar Odom is reported to have rekindled a relationship with Lara Manoukian. The couple dated shortly before his whirlwind romance with Khloe Kardashian.

    “Hearing that Lamar is back with his ex is crushing for Khloe,” a source close to Khloe Kardashian reportedly told Hollywood Life. “She’s heartbroken over it and still doesn’t know if she believes it. To find out anther woman is making him happy is like a knife to the heart. Hearing that he’s also doing better than ever living a good clean life while with this woman is even harder to deal with.”

    The Khloe Kardashian/Lamar Odom saga continues.

  • Gina DeJesus, Amanda Berry Share Their Story Of 10 Years of Captivity, Rape, Abuse and Survival

    Gina DeJesus, Amanda Berry Share Their Story Of 10 Years of Captivity, Rape, Abuse and Survival

    Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry broke their silence recently about their 10-year ordeal of being kidnapped, chained, raped, physically and emotionally abused by their captor Ariel Castro.

    After 10 long years of unimaginable torture, Gina DeJesus, Amanda Berry and Michelle Knight, along with Berry’s six-year-old daughter, managed to escape nearly two years ago when Castro forgot to lock them inside their rooms when he left the home. The girls fled the only home they had known for 10 years, called 911 and were free.

    “Sometimes, there are days that I just can’t believe it,” Amanda Berry, now 29, told People magazine exclusively. “I just feel like I can’t believe that this happened to me.”

    Gina DeJesus and her co-captees released a book chronicling their ordeal, Hope: A Memoir of Survival in Cleveland, written with Mary Jordan and Kevin Sullivan.

    “He was always watching us,” Gina DeJesus, 25, said about Castro. “Before the door opened, your heart was just beating real fast.”

    Amanda Berry said their days were filled with uncertainty and constant fear.

    “You didn’t know why he was coming up the stairs or what was going to happen.”

    Despite horrific circumstances, Gina DeJesus and the girls spent their evenings when Castro went to work like many other girls their age by dancing and singing and watching their favorite show, The Vampire Diaries, every Thursday night.

    “We would watch the show and then for two hours afterward, we would talk about what’s going to happen next week,” said Berry.

    The fun would be broken the moment Castro returned home.

    “He would walk up the stairs and just ruin our whole day,” said Gina DeJesus.

    Some days were more difficult than others.

    “At the time, I thought I was going to be there forever so I didn’t care if I died,” said Gina DeJesus.

    However, a deep-rooted hope is what kept them going, said the women, who still live in Cleveland with their families.

    “You had to stay positive because if you didn’t, there was no reason to try and survive it,” said Amanda Berry.

    As for Castro, he was sentenced to life without parole and took his own life by hanging the next month.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown: Condition Has ‘Not Changed’ Despite Bobby Brown’s Claims That His Daughter Is ‘Awake’

    Bobbi Kristina Brown is still unresponsive and remains in a coma, according to a source for People magazine. This revelation comes in the wake of claims by both Bobbi Kristina’s aunt and father, Bobby Brown, that his is “awake.”

    On Sunday, Bobbi Kristina Brown’s aunt, Tina Brown, reportedly wrote on Facebook that the 22-year-old “woke up and is no longer on life support.” The post was later deleted.

    However, according to “an individual close to the family, she remains in an unresponsive state,” reports People.

    “Bobbi Kristina’s condition has not changed since she was admitted to [the] hospital,” the source told the magazine Monday.

    On Saturday, Bobbi Kristina Brown’s father, Bobby Brown, 46, also told concert-goers that she was awake, according to Page Six.

    “Bobbi is awake,” Bobby Brown said during a concert in Dallas. “She’s watching me.”

    People also confirms that a source told them that nothing had changed for Bobbi Kristina, who is the daughter of the late Whitney Houston, just hours before Tina Brown’s Facebook post appeared.

    Bobbi Kristina Brown has been unresponsive since she was found facedown in a bathtub of her Georgia home on Jan. 31 and little has changed, despite a move from Emory University hospital to a rehabilitation facility in Atlanta.

    An attempt to bring Bobbi Kristina Brown out a her medically induced coma ended with violent seizure and she was returned to a coma-state.

    In recent weeks, Bobbi Kristina’s grandmother acknowledged that her condition had not improved much.

    “She’s the same. [We’ve] moved her now to a place for rehabilitation,” Cissy Houston said in a radio interview with WBLS 107.5 at the time. “You know, still not a great deal of hope.”

  • Bruce Jenner: From Latest Diane Sawyer Interview Clip: ‘I Can’t Let Myself Hurt’ My Family

    Bruce Jenner’s much-anticipated interview with Diane Sawyer is just a few days away and ABC is promoting what is promised to be an emotional and personal two-hour revelation that Bruce is becoming a woman.

    A new clip from the interview has been released and shows Bruce Jenner sharing just a bit more from previous clips, Page Six reports.

    In the latest clip, the 65-year-old father of six and stepfather to four says his family is all that really matters through this experience.

    “I can’t let myself hurt them,” Bruce Jenner reveals.

    Much speculation has surrounded Bruce Jenner’s changing appearance. After the former Olympic champion was subjected to rather nasty rumors and comments, Jenner decided to take control of how his news will be shared by agreeing to the interview with Diane Sawyer, who is reputed to be empathic and compassionate within the LGBT community.

    In recent months, Bruce Jenner has grown out his hair and wears nail polish, which has fueled speculation about his desire to become a woman, as well as nasty comments and reaction.

    The lengthy interview is expected to cover Bruce Jenner’s entire life — most likely including his rise to fame with the Olympics and life in the limelight, his recent divorce from Kris Jenner and his future.

    In a previous teaser, Jenner can be heard saying that his entire life “has been getting me ready for this.”

    With only four days left until Friday’s show, Bruce Jenner has kept a low profile. However, People magazine reports that Jenner was out on a joyride around Santa Monica, California, on his motorcycle over the weekend.

    He was snapped sporting a big black helmet that covered his face, along with jeans and a jacket, as he made his way through the California hills.

    “Bruce Jenner — The Interview” airs 9 p.m. Friday on ABC.

  • Andrea Swift, Suffering From Cancer, Offers Daughter Taylor Swift a Tear-Jerker Tribute at CMAs

    Andrea Swift brought the house down and to tears Sunday at the Country Music Awards with a moving tribute for her daughter Taylor Swift.

    Recently diagnosed with cancer after Taylor Swift asked her to get checked out as a Christmas gift, Andrea Swift had everyone in tears, including Taylor, as she talked about life with one of the most famous singers in the world.

    “I’ve seen music carry her through every emotion … good or bad. For many years I was her constant companion. I witnessed a girl with very few friends become one with many, learning to stand up for the things she believes in. Being brave enough to explore her musical curiosity… Giving herself to those in need… I am a very proud mom. I thank the entire music community for taking such good care of her. And to the fans, I know you love her as I love her. And for that, I thank you eternally,” Andrea Swift said.

    Casual Sunday night with the parents. #ACMawards50

    The speech came in response to Taylor Swift’s acceptance of the Milestone Award. It was even more poignant coming so soon after Taylor announced via social media that her mother is battling cancer, although the family does not wish to reveal more specific details about Andrea Swifts’ illness. Taylor released the news in hopes of convincing others like her mother to get thorough health checkups.

    Taylor shared the news about Andrea Swift’s cancer diagnosis via Tumblr, urging others to get checked out.

    “The results came in, and I’m saddened to tell you that my mom has been diagnosed with cancer. I’d like to keep the details of her condition and treatment plans private, but she wanted you to know,” Taylor Swift wrote about Andrea Swift. “She wanted you to know because your parents may be too busy juggling everything they’ve got going on to go to the doctor, and maybe you reminding them to go get checked for cancer could possibly lead to an early diagnosis and an easier battle… Or peace of mind in knowing that they’re healthy and there’s nothing to worry about,” Taylor Swift wrote to her fans.

    Thank you for a beautiful night, Dallas.. And to anyone who watched. See you in October on tour! #ACMawards50

  • Stephanie March: Divorce Getting Ugly Amidst Rumors That Bobby Flay Had a Three-Year Affair

    Stephanie March and husband, celebrity Chef Bobby Flay, are in the midst of messy divorce proceedings that just keep getting uglier and uglier.

    Bobby Flay filed for divorce from wife Stephanie March earlier this month, and now a new report alleges that Flay, 50, has been cheating on the Law & Order: SVU actress for years with a “singer/actress who worked as a hostess at the chef’s Bar Americain in 2008 and became his assistant,” as Page Six reports.

    According to the site, Stephanie March, 40, learned late last year that her 50-year-old husband had been engaged in an affair with 28-year-old Elyse Tirrell for three years.

    Actress Maia Madison told the site that Stephanie March told her about Flay’s affair around Thanksgiving.

    “She came to my house and was sobbing uncontrollably. She said, ‘I can’t believe the last 10 years of my life have been a lie.’”

    Flay’s rep had refused to comment on the allegations, as stated to Us Weekly.

    “We will continue to refrain from responding to the continued efforts by certain parties to spread rumors and innuendo. This specific allegation was in a letter sent from one attorney in this case to the other. It was written and then leaked specifically to try to insert this story into the press, and that’s unfortunate. Even more unfortunate is that all of this is being done in order to renegotiate a prenuptial agreement that was agreed to over a decade ago and never amended during the marriage.”

    After a 10-year marriage, the divorce is mired down in the details. Stephanie March’s lawyers are reportedly contesting the couple’s prenup, which says millionaire Bobby Flay only needs to pay his ex $5,000 per month in alimony.

    Bobby Flay’s business partner Laurence Kretchmer told Page Six he knows nothing about any affair and claims there is even more ugly that will be divulged in the future. This time, about Stephanie March.

    “As ugly as Stephanie is going to look [when this news comes out], she will look uglier when other things come out,” said Kretchmer.

    Wonder to what Kretchmer is eluding? Are you Team Stephanie or Team Bobby?
