  • Melanie Griffith: Who Knew She Had A Pet Lion? [Photos]

    Pictures from the teenage years of Melanie Griffith have resurfaced to show how the actor grew up with an odd—and dangerous—choice for a family pet. The pictures show Griffith, her mother Tippi Hedren, and then-stepfather Noel Marshall going about their daily routine at home in the company of a huge lion named Neil, who was the family pet.

    The photos from 1971 were originally published in LIFE magazine and taken by photographer Michael Rougier. They show a 14-year-old Griffith hanging around her mother’s home in Sherman Oaks, California, where she played and slept with a full-sized lion named Neil. One photo shows Griffith lounging in bed with Neil, who is covered with a red blanket. Another photo shows Griffith jumping into a pool, with Neil stretching a paw to grab her leg and jaws wide as if to bite it.

    Griffith, now aged 57, started living with Neil at her mother’s house after Hedren and Marshall adopted the lion from Anton Lavey, High Priest of the Church of Satan, when he could no longer keep the pet in his San Francisco apartment. Hedren and Marshall reportedly became fascinated with lions after taking a trip to Africa, where they decided to make a movie about the huge cats.

    They ended up making the movie Roar, starring Hedren and Griffith, which took 11 years to make. The movie ended up being a box-office flop. However, what was more worrying was the fact that many of its cast and crew, including Griffith, were injured during filming. Griffith needed 50 stitches after being bitten by one of the cats.

    In a 1982 interview with The Guardian during promotions for Roar, Griffith spoke about her injury. Griffith said that the lioness that tore her face open hadn’t meant to hurt her. “Just, after seven years growing up with the lions I forgot you have to be careful. You can never be sure you’re safe and just a blow can pop your head like a ping pong ball,” she said.

  • Porsha Williams Demoted On RHOA, Now She’s Just A “Friend”

    The Real Housewives of Atlanta star was a staple on the show for two seasons, but Porsha Williams is now just a “friend”. Williams has apparently been downgraded from being a regular cast member to merely having a recurring role on the seventh season of the Bravo reality show, which premieres on November 9.

    According to RadarOnline.com, Williams issued a statement announcing her reduced role on Real Housewives of Atlanta. Williams said she was “blindsided” by the network’s announcement that she would no longer have “housewife” status, but clarified that she would still remain on the show in the capacity of a friend, “bonding with the other women.”

    “This moment is bittersweet, but God has been so amazing to me, and I think this is a perfect time for me to spread my wings, and finally focus on all of my upcoming projects. In addition to having my recurring role on RHOA, I will be able to focus my attention on my career as an Entertainment Correspondent, recording my album, building my businesses, and taking baby step towards nurturing my relationship with my new love!” Williams wrote.

    One reported rumor about Williams being demoted to a recurring role on the show involved allegations that she was difficult to work with. Meanwhile, Daily Mail guessed that perhaps her highly publicized divorce from American football player Kordell Stewart in 2013 made Williams less attractive to the show’s producers.

    However, Bravo producer Andy Cohen reportedly set the record straight on Williams during his online show Ask Andy, saying she could not provide adequate storylines for the show. “Really, it was about the amount of story we got from Porsha this season. We went into it assuming she would be a full housewife, holding a peach. We just haven’t gotten enough to merit that. She’s going to be in it a lot. We love her. I hope she’ll be on Bravo endlessly,” Cohen said.

  • Taylor Swift Teases New Single ‘Out Of The Woods’ With Cryptic Instagram Post

    On Thursday, Taylor Swift posted a picture on her Instagram account that many believe teases a song off her upcoming album 1989. Speculation and analysis from fans and the media have indicated that Swift’s photo announces the release of a song called “Out Of The Woods” on Monday, October 13.

    Swift posted a picture of a path in the woods, superimposed with a “5,” a downward pointing arrow and the word “woods”. According to MTV.com, the photo possibly references the song “Out Of The Woods,” which Swift talked about in the cover story about her that appeared in the September 25 issue of Rolling Stone.

    Swift reportedly admitted that the song was written after a snowmobile accident she was in with an ex-boyfriend, whom the magazine reported was Harry Styles of One Direction. “Remember when you hit the brakes too soon/ Twenty stitches in a hospital room,” reportedly go the lyrics of the song, which references the accident that apparently hurt both Swift and Styles.

     

    “You know what I’ve found works even better than an NDA [non-disclosure agreement]? Looking someone in the eye and saying, ‘Please don’t tell anyone about this,’ ” replied Swift when asked why the incident never made headlines.

    “Out Of The Woods” was co-written by fun. musician Jack Antonoff, who tweeted in September that he considered it “one of the most important things” he had ever been part of and that he couldn’t wait for everyone to hear it. According to E! Online, fans of Swift reportedly took to Twitter to share Antonoff’s enthusiasm when the “Shake It Off” singer posted her teaser photo on Instagram.

    Swift later explained on Twitter that “Out Of The Woods” wasn’t her next single off 1989, but a song that she thought best represented the album, which drops on October 27. Meanwhile, fans can whet their appetites for new material by Swift by watching a cover she recently performed of Vance Joy’s “Riptide” on BBC 1.

  • Jennifer Aniston Will Soon Welcome New Baby Into Her Life

    Friends star Jennifer Aniston has apparently received news that a new baby boy is coming into her life. According to RadarOnline.com, her younger brother AJ will be giving Aniston a baby nephew when his wife Adriane Hallek gives birth.

    “It’s a big baby. They’re having a baby boy,” said Amanda Derycke, Hallek’s grandmother. When asked if Aniston had given her congratulations to the couple, Derycke replied, “I don’t know how she feels about it. They’re trying not to pump this up a lot. I think [Jennifer] might in the future. I’m sure he’s told her. He’s very excited.”

    As for having babies herself, Aniston has reportedly said that she doesn’t feel as if not having “birthed a child” has decreased her value as a woman. “I’ve birthed a lot of things, and I feel like I’ve mothered many things. And I don’t feel like it’s fair to put that pressure on people,” she previously told Carson Daly on the TODAY show.

    Aniston’s fiancé, Justin Theroux, recently admitted to feeling the pressure surrounding his engagement to the 45-year-old actor. According to Hello, Theroux said in a recent interview with Australia’s TV Weekly, “There is this hum of pressure that – I can’t stress enough – I don’t pay any attention to. But I am not going to let a tabloid tell me what to do… I’m not going to watch them tap their watch…. We’re just doing our own thing. We are completely happy, obviously, but were not on anyone else’s timeframe.”

    Aniston and Theroux are reportedly busy with their respective projects, her with the second installment of Horrible Bosses and him with his HBO series The Leftovers. Rumors have circulated that Aniston was involved in a reunion project with Friends co-stars Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox in the works, but Cox has shot that down, according to E! News.

    “No, there’s no truth to that. No. I wish! How fun. We have dinner, like, every month or so, and we have the best time. I will bring it up next dinner, for sure!” said Cox.

  • Anne Hathaway Says She “Was In Crisis” Over “Hathahate”

    Following her Oscar win in 2013, Anne Hathaway reportedly experienced a wave of negative reaction called “Hathahate” that caused her to retreat temporarily from the limelight. In her recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Hathaway talks about that period of her life and how she is ready to woo back her fans and detractors.

    “People treated me a certain way. But I’ve grown from it. This whole thing has made me a way more compassionate and loving person. And I don’t feel sorry for myself,” she said. Hathaway graces the cover of the November issue in a red strapless Giogrio Armani Prive gown with a sequined bodice.

    After an awkward acceptance speech at the 2013 Golden Globes for her Best Supporting Actress win, where she reportedly forgot to mention her cancer-stricken manager, Hathaway made a faux pas when the film Les Miserables won later that night. “While everyone was still getting onstage, I spoke. I should have gone after everyone else. I own that; it was rude,” Hathaway said.

    The next day, Hathaway encountered an article hating on her, which left her feeling “punched in the gut.” She claimed her ill health at the time due to her role in Les Miserable left her feeling vulnerable, but she didn’t want to court sympathy at the time. “I was in crisis. Now I’d be fine. I really would be. I’d let it roll off my back, but at the time I was still partly Fantine. I was still identifying with being a victim,” said Hathaway. Even winning the Oscar that year was overshadowed by the pink dress from Prada that Hathaway chose to wear, which showcased her nipples. Hathaway reportedly decided to wear the dress because she had no other options at the last minute.

    Hathaway said that the controversy surrounding her temporarily made studios afraid to touch her, but that her current role in the upcoming movie Interstellar set things right for her again. “Once it was announced that I was doing Interstellar, thankfully the phone started ringing again,” she said.

  • Ray Rice Is Reportedly Set To Meet With NFL And NFLPA Investigators

    Sources of The Baltimore Sun have revealed that Ray Rice will be meeting with NFL investigator Robert Mueller III and NFL Players Association investigator Richard Craig Smith soon. Rice will reportedly be bringing his wife Janay and defense attorney Michael Diamondstein with him during the meetings, for which dates have not yet been set. The meetings are meant to ensure convenience and transparency in the investigation of Rice’s domestic abuse case in relation to NFL matters.

    In February, Rice was seen in a video hitting his then-fiancee Janay until she became unconscious in an elevator at the Revel Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The incident resulted in a felony aggravated assault case against Rice, who was defended by Diamondstein. Rice was then accepted into a pretrial intervention program, which has allowed him to avoid jail time.

    The NFL suspended Rice for two games at the time for violating the league’s personal conduct policy, but after the video was made public on September 8, it suspended him indefinitely. The Baltimore Ravens also dropped Rice from his $35 million contract.

    Meanwhile, the NFL recently claimed that it reached out to several law enforcement agencies between February and June in order to obtain the video for their investigation. An NFL security representative named Jim Buckley reportedly approached the Atlantic City Police Department, Atlantic County Solicitor’s Office and the New Jersey State Police for all the information they had on Rice’s case, including the video. All agencies could not give Buckley the requested information, and when he approached the court official who approved Rice’s entry into the probationary program, Buckley was only given a copy of the indictment, which had already been made public at the time.

    NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told ABC News that the information regarding their requests for the video will be included in Mueller’s report on the NFL’s handling of Rice’s case.

  • Sadie Robertson Pays Tribute To Duck Dynasty With Performance On Dancing With The Stars

    On the October 6 episode of Dancing With The Stars, Sadie Robertson and dance partner Mark Ballas paid tribute to her family by performing a Duck Dynasty-inspired dance. Sadie even went so far as to get her relatives to join her onstage for the cute samba she and her partner had cooked up for the show.

    Sadie’s father Willie joined the pair onstage along with her uncles Jase, Si and Jep to contribute duck calls to start the performance. They were wearing camouflage costumes along with Mark, who in turn sported a beard similar to Willie’s and those of Sadie’s uncles. Meanwhile, Sadie’s feathery costume was designed by the show’s costume designer Daniela Gschwendtner and was apparently modest enough to get the approval of her father.

    “I went out and gathered all these feathers for the last month. No, I didn’t, but anything with feathers is cool and stones and rocks. Yeah, I mean it’s real earthy. I like it!” said Willie to E! News after the show. He also revealed that he was glad he only had to make duck calls and left all the dancing to Sadie.

    Sadie and Mark performed their samba to Pharrell Williams’ “Hunter” and garnered a near-perfect score of 37 out of 40 for the fun number. The dance reportedly showed how Sadie considered her family important to her.

    In a video shown before her performance, Sadie spoke about how Duck Dynasty had turned her family’s life upside down. “I was 14 and I didn’t realize how big it was going to be. But there’s definitely been some bad things about being in the public eye,” she said.

    Sadie recounted how some comments her grandfather Phil Robertson made in the December 2012 issue of GQ got such a bad reaction from the public that her family considered quitting the show.

    “The thing is, no matter what he would have said, we should have stuck by him, because he’s my grandpa. Yeah, he’s very opinionated, but he’s my family, and family sticks together,” she said.

  • Michael Phelps Suspended From Competitive Swimming For Six Months After DUI Arrest

    USA Swimming suspended Olympian Michael Phelps on Monday after he was arrested for driving under the influence on September 30. Phelps will be banned from competing in US-sanctioned swimming events for reportedly violating the organization’s code of conduct.

    Phelps was reportedly six months into a comeback after going into a two-year hiatus post-2012 Olympics. The champion swimmer is considered the most decorated Olympian of all time, garnering a record 8 gold medals in 2012 Summer Olympics alone. His attempted return to competitive swimming is now on hold for six months, according to the decision made by USA Swimming, which also stipulates the withdrawal of Phelps’s stipend for that period.

    Among the sanctions Phelps faces is his exclusion from competing in the 2015 FINA World Swimming Championships in Russia next August. “Michael’s conduct was serious and required significant consequences,” said USA Swimming Executive Director Chuck Wielgus in a statement.

    On September 30, Phelps reportedly drove 85 mph in a 45 mph lane and crossed double lane lines in the Fort McHenry Tunnel on Interstate 95 in Baltimore. He has been charged with driving under the influence, excessive speed and crossing double lane lines, with November 19 set for his trial.

    Phelps took to Twitter on Sunday, October 5 to apologize for his conduct. In a series of tweets, he said, “I recognize that this is not my first lapse in judgment, and I am extremely disappointed with myself. I’m going to take some time away to attend a program that will provide the help I need to better understand myself. Swimming is a major part of my life, but right now I need to focus my attention on me as an individual, and do the necessary work to learn from this experience and make better decisions in the future.”

    A spokesman at Octagon, the group representing Phelps, said that the swimmer has accepted USA Swimming’s sanctions and is taking steps to address the consequences of his actions. Phelps has reportedly checked himself into rehab for six weeks.

  • Quincy Jones Receives Top French Award For His Contributions To Culture

    Multi-awarded American musician and producer Quincy Jones was given an esteemed cultural award by France on Monday, October 6. Jones was bestowed with the Order of Arts and Letters, which is a highly important honor given to individuals who have made significant contributions to the arts.

    The 81-year-old also received the Commander of the Legion of Honour, which is considered France’s highest civil award, in 2001, making this year’s award his second from France. Jones used to work in Paris during the 1950s, which may have been the beginning of strong ties he has established with the European country.

    Jones, who is also nicknamed “Q,” received the Order of Arts and Letters from France’s former culture minister, Jack Lang. After receiving the honor, Jones praised the country that had so generously recognized his work.

    “It’s thanks to France that jazz is what it is today. Even though I’m American, France is in my heart,” Jones said.

    Jones lauded France’s contribution to a genre that embraced his abilities as a jazz trumpet player. As a musician and producer, Jones has worked with big names in the music industry over a career that has spanned 60 years. His collaborators were esteemed artists in a variety of musical genres, with names including Jacques Brel, Frank Sinatra, Charles Aznavour, Barbara Streisand, Ray Charles, Count Basie, Henri Salvador, Duke Ellington and Michael Jackson.

    Jones has won 27 Grammy Awards and garnered a record 79 Grammy nominations. The music legend was also given a Grammy Legend Award in 1991 for his great contribution to the music industry. Jones was one of two of the first African Americans to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1968 for a tune called “The Eyes of Love,” which was penned for the Universal Pictures film Banning.

  • Khloe & Lamar: Could A New Reality Show Bring Them Back Together?

    Lamar Odom is reportedly not shy about his efforts to get wife Khloe Kardashian back. Lamar apparently believes that getting into another reality TV show with Khloe will help prove his commitment to her after he broke his marriage with drug abuse and alleged cheating a while back.

    A source told HollywoodLife.com that Lamar is constantly thinking of ways to mend his marriage to Khloe and would love to do Khloe & Lamar again because it would be “good therapy” for them. “He told her doing the show this time around would show her and himself that he’s ready to be open and honest, to put his feelings and heart out on the table and to prove to her that he’s ready to be part of her world and her family’s empire that he once took for granted,” said the source.

    The source added that Khloe was shocked to hear him say it and marveled at the fact that he seemed to be “maturing,” but she still had reservations about his proposal. “She holds everything, all the cards and Lamar’s fine with that because he knows nothing is happening on his terms. He’s being patient. Real patient,” the source said.

    On Saturday, Khloe reportedly got a temporary metallic tattoo, which she posted a picture of on Instagram. However, Daily Mail reported that Khloe still had her permanent tattoo of Lamar’s initials written in cursive on her right hand. Khloe has reportedly shown no signs of removing the tattoo even as the anniversary of the date she filed for divorce approaches in December, which may indicate that Lamar has a chance.

    Meanwhile, another source close to Lamar also told HollywoodLife.com that the former basketball player isn’t threatened by reports that rapper French Montana is trying to get back together with Khloe. “Lamar knew from the beginning that French and Khloe’s relationship wouldn’t amount to anything. It didn’t have the right foundation from the beginning,” said the source, referring to French still being married to Dean Kharbouch when he started dating Khloe.

  • Kendra Wilkinson And Hank Baskett Joining Next Season Of Marriage Boot Camp

    Amid her husband’s cheating rumors, Kendra Wilkinson seems determined to give Hank Baskett a second chance, despite her apparent confusion on whether to believe allegations. According to E! News, Wilkinson and her husband will be joining the next season of the reality TV series Marriage Boot Camp, which will be filming for the next two weeks.

    Describing Baskett as “Superman without a cape” as opposed to the public’s perception of him as “the most perfect man on Earth,” Wilkinson told E! News that her husband needed a lot of work. “People looked at him like he was Superman and he probably made one little mistake and now the whole world sees this bad image and I hate that. It’s so sad…He’s not a bad guy. He’s a very amazing person who was trapped in the very bad situation,” she said.

    Wilkinson added that she believes her husband is “trying to find a way to tell me what really happened” while undergoing “a lot of therapy.”

    According to HollywoodLife.com, a source has revealed that Baskett is looking to win Wilkinson back by planning a renewal of vows to prove his commitment to her. “Hank will do whatever he can to save his marriage to Kendra and one way of showing his commitment is by renewing his wedding vows,” said the source.

    The source added that Baskett thought a holiday or New Year’s Eve ceremony would be an ideal way to give a fresh start for the couple in 2015.

    While waiting to make a decision on their relationship, Wilkinson is reportedly focusing on working with Baskett to prioritize co-parenting their children. “We’re still married, ‘cause we’re not divorced. But, we’re at a place where we can talk right now, not about everything, but we’re talking and we’re parenting. That’s our number one priority is making sure these two kids are raised with two parents, and we want to give them a great life,” she revealed in a recent interview with HuffPost Live.

  • Katherine Heigl Is Not In The Adult Film Business, Films Steamy Scene For TV

    Katherine Heigl is known by some for being “difficult” to work with, and a photo she posted on Instagram recently shows what the lengths her crew might go to please her. The photo shows Heigl covered only by a blanket and surrounded by several shirtless men.

    “Nope I haven’t gone into the adult film business… just having a little fun w/ my amazingly supportive crew who shed their shirts in solidarity!! Love you all!! @carnojoe @tallmanmark,” wrote Heigl on the photo she posted a week ago on Instagram on. The crew voluntarily stripped down to show support for Heigl as she shot a particularly steamy scene from her new show State of Affairs. One of the men in the photo was Heigl’s co-star Mark Tallman.

    State of Affairs is Heigl’s first TV series since she left the highly popular Grey’s Anatomy in 2010. Her TV role is that of Charleston Tucker, a CIA analyst working for the president on matters of international security. Heigl’s show premieres this November 17 on NBC.

    Heigl is also set to star in the upcoming black comedy Home Sweet Hell opposite Patrick Wilson. In the film, Heigl plays the Stepford Wife-type spouse of Wilson’s character, who follows everything that his wife says. When Wilson’s character ends up being blackmailed by his employee-turned-lover, played by Jordana Brewster, Heigl’s character takes the matter into her own hands and decides to kill her.

    Home Sweet Hell plays off Heigl’s physical attributes as well. The 35-year-old actress strips to her underwear as the murderous housewife, Mona Champagne. Mona doesn’t want to get blood on herself, so she decides to wear only her underwear before killing her husband’s lover. Directed by Anthony Burns, Home Sweet Hell is a dark comedy that also stars Kevin McKidd, Jim Belushi, A.J. Buckley and Bryce Johnson.

  • Wiz Khalifa Gets Shocking Post-Breakup Dye Job For A New Look

    Rapper Wiz Khalifa seems to be eager to move on after his wife Amber Rose filed for divorce on September 22—at least figuratively. Khalifa sported a new look on Tuesday and made his transformation public by live-tweeting about it.

    Khalifa dyed his hair purple on Tuesday, but made sure to document every step of the process on his Twitter account. First, Khalifa posted one last picture of his signature look of natural-colored dreadlocks with frosted tips in the front. Khalifa followed that photo with a selfie of himself undergoing the bleaching process. The second photo shows him with chemicals in his hair and the tips of his dreads turning white, while his forehead showcases the “Bash” tattoo he got as a tribute to his son with Rose, Sebastian Taylor Thomaz.

    Another photo captioned “Stage 1” shows Khalifa with his hair completely white and falling across his face. The final picture he posted shows a close-up of the upper right side of his face, with purple dreadlocks falling across it. Captioned “Purple Rain,” the photo is now being used by Khalifa as his profile pic on Twitter.

    The day before his Twitter transformation, Khalifa posted a picture of himself smiling on Instagram with the caption, “Peace of mind.” At least on social media, the rapper seems to be dealing with his divorce well, unlike his estranged wife. Rose took to Twitter on Tuesday as well, but reportedly expressed her difficulty in dealing with the end of her marriage to Khalifa.

    “The mornings are especially hard,” she first posted on Twitter. Less than an hour later, Rose followed it up with a tweet saying, “The pain…I wake up every morning feeling like my best friend died….. I never knew what a true heartache felt like until now.” Rose filed for divorce from Khalifa on September 22 because she reportedly caught him cheating on her.

  • ‘Ted 2’ Drops Stephen Collins; Actor Allegedly Molested Young Girls

    After the release of a controversial audio recording concerning the actor, the comedy film Ted 2 reportedly fired Stephen Collins. Ted 2, helmed by Seth MacFarlane, decided not to involve Collins in the film after news broke that the actor allegedly admitted to molesting and exposing himself to young girls.

    TMZ has obtained an audio recording that Collins’ wife Faye Grant had made during therapy sessions in 2012, where Collins admitted to molesting or exposing himself to several young girls. Production sources close to Ted 2 revealed to TMZ that Collins was immediately fired after the site posted the recording. Also, a source from The David Lynch Foundation told TMZ that Collins had resigned his post as Co-Director for its Committee for Stress-Free Schools two years ago for “personal reasons”. After TMZ called the Foundation, Collins’ name was reportedly removed from the website of the Committee.

    According to Entertainment Weekly, Collins has yet to be charged with a crime, but the audio recording and the ongoing investigation of the New York Police Department were enough for MacFarlane and Universal Pictures to make a decision on having him in Ted 2. Representatives of Ted 2 have reportedly confirmed the firing of Collins, and sources close to the film have said that the removal of his character would not affect its final outcome.

    Collins hinted about his involvement in Ted 2 on Saturday, when he responded to a fan asking him what his role was in the movie. He tweeted, “I’d tell you but @SethMacFarlane would have to kill me.” Meanwhile, Ted 2 has begun filming and will be released on June 26, 2015.

    Collins will apparently not be seen on TV either, as a representative for TV Guide Network has reportedly confirmed that it will stop airing reruns of his show 7th Heaven because of the abuse allegations.

  • Carol Burnett And Jimmy Fallon Are Hilarious In ‘Tonight Show’ Skit

    On the Monday episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, legendary comedian Carol Burnett made an appearance to promote her play Love Letters. Burnett gave viewers a treat by pretending to recall a ‘90s soap opera in which she supposedly starred with Jimmy Fallon, and the trip down memory lane provided the studio audience with a barrel of laughs.

    Fallon “reminded” Burnett about a show called Tensions, in which they played a married couple. The show was supposedly canceled due to the heightened tension they were required to create in order to hook audiences. Fallon then invited Burnett to view a few “clips” from the show.

    These “clips” were actually skits that required Burnett and Fallon to run from the interview desk to an ornate set and don flamboyant costumes. The hilarious scripts had Burnett and Fallon getting worked up over ordinary things such as coffee, telling the time and walking the dog.

    What made the segments even funnier was the fact that Burnett and Fallon had to run back to the interview desk after each one and pretend they had been sitting there all along. After the first segment, Fallon’s face was still wet from Burnett having thrown her coffee into it. Burnett’s outfit was also noticeably in disarray after each “clip,” and she even stopped trying to pretend after the last one, giving away the joke by going back to the interview desk still in her turban and costume.

    Earlier in the show, Burnett and Fallon discussed how they both had a hard time trying not to laugh during comedic performances, and this was evident throughout their Tensions skit. Burnett will be appearing in Love Letters opposite Tony Award-winner Brian Dennehy for four weeks starting on October 11, Saturday. The comedian was also recently given the Harvey Award by the James M. Stewart Museum Foundation.

  • Teresa Giudice Talks About Jail Time In First Interview Since Her Sentencing

    The Real Housewives of New Jeresy star Teresa Giudice appeared for her first interview since her sentencing on October 2. Giudice and her husband Joe were on Monday night’s episode of Watch What Happens, which was taped on Friday after their court appearance. In it, the couple spoke to host Andy Cohen about Giudice’s approaching jail time and answered questions about their case.

    Giudice revealed that she didn’t know that the plea bargain her lawyer had arranged for her meant that she would be spending time in jail. Judge Esther Salas gave Giudice 15 months in prison, which will start on January 5, 2015.

    “I didn’t fully understand it. I thought my lawyer was going to fight for me. I mean that’s what lawyers do, I don’t know. That’s why you hire an attorney. You put it in their hands,” she said.

    Apparently, Giudice also hasn’t told her three youngest daughters about her upcoming prison sentence. She said, however, that her two middle children, Gabriella, nine, and Milania, eight, seemed to know about it because they have been unusually affectionate with her. Giudice said she would eventually tell them and even hopes that her husband would bring them once a week to visit her in jail.

    Cohen noted that Giudice was a person who cared about her appearance and thus asked her how she would take care of it in jail. “I’m going to do fine… I don’t care about that, I’ll just slick my hair back and go about my day. I just think about my daughters. That’s all I think about,” she said.

    She revealed that she was grateful to Judge Salas for allowing the Giudices staggered sentences and some time at home before reporting to jail. “I know that she could have taken us yesterday if she wanted to. Or she could have taken us both, or taken me,” Giudice said.

    “A lot of the things that she said yesterday, it hit home and it bothered me. From everything that she said, I’m just going to take it and become a better person,” added Giudice.

  • Katy Perry Flirts With College Quarterback For ESPN College GameDay

    Singer Katy Perry took time out of her busy schedule as an international popstar to crash a sports show on Saturday, and flirt with a college quarterback. At a guest appearance on ESPN College GameDay, Perry gave a shoutout to 21-year-old Trevor Knight, star quarterback of the Oklahoma Sooners.

    The 29-year-old singer was asked by the show’s hosts to predict how the game between Knight’s Oklahoma Sooners and the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs would turn out. Knight’s Oklahoma team was ranked 4th while TCU was No. 25 at the time. Perry said, “I’m picking this one based on looks. Trevor Knight, do you hear me?”

    “The quarterback for Oklahoma, we don’t mind. So I’m going to go with him. Trevor Knight, call me!” she shouted, while making a “call me” signal with her hand. She was also holding up a heart-shaped sign with a picture of the Oklahoma quarterback.

    Perry displayed more antics on the show, including chucking corn dogs at the camera to taunt LSU fans and ripping off host Lee Corso’s Alabama elephant mask. However, by the end of the game between Oklahoma and TCU, it was apparent that Perry didn’t have a good system for predicting football wins. Knight’s Sooners lost to TCU, 37-33.

    The “Roar” singer reportedly stuck around after finishing the shoot in Oxford, Mississippi to catch Ole Miss’ game against Alabama, which the latter team lost. Perry even trolled Alabama coach Nick Saban on Twitter with a couple of tweets about their loss. Perry was also caught on video drinking beer and crowd-surfing at a local bar, evidently enjoying her day of college football.

    Meanwhile, as of Monday, Knight hasn’t yet called Perry. “I have not called Katy Perry yet,” the quarterback said. Perry performs on Monday night in Tulsa, Oklahoma, so Knight may still have a chance to say hi—along with his girlfriend.

  • Demi Moore Reportedly Offers To Help Ashton Kutcher And Mila Kunis With The Baby

    Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have just welcomed a baby girl into their lives, and Demi Moore wants to get in on the parenting action. Moore is reportedly ready to help her ex-husband and his current fiancée with baby matters now that Kunis has given birth to Baby Girl Kutcher.

    Kunis, star of Black Swan, gave birth to Wyatt Isabelle Kutcher on the evening of September 30 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Wyatt is Kunis and Kutcher’s first child together, and Moore is apparently offering her experience as a mother to help the couple with this new phase of their lives.

    According to a source close to Moore, the 51-year-old actor has put the past behind her and has “total acceptance” for Kutcher’s life after the end of their marriage. “She ultimately has great love for Ashton and has accepted the fact that he is in love with Mila and that they are starting a family,” said the source to RadarOnline.com. Moore has reportedly “offered to help in any way that she can with the baby and with Mila.”

    “Things have settled down a lot, and she wants to be there for Ashton’s family,” added the source.

    Moore and Kutcher were married for eight years until she announced their split in 2011. It was in 2012 when Kutcher began dating Kunis, whom he had met years before on the set of That ‘70s Show, which launched both of their careers. The couple became engaged earlier this year, a few months after Moore’s divorce from Kutcher was finalized in November 2013.

    The star of Ghost has a wealth of experiences as a mother to share with Kutcher and Kunis, should they accept her offer. Moore has three children with ex-husband and Die Hard star Bruce Willis: 26-year-old Rumer, 23-year-old Scout and 20-year-old Tallulah.

  • Bruce Jenner Shows Off Luscious Locks At Elton John Concert

    Keeping Up With The Kardashians star Bruce Jenner debuted his new hair style on Saturday, when he attended an Elton John concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The 64-year-old former Olympic athlete finally let down his long, brown locks after months of wearing it in a ponytail. Jenner has reportedly been growing his hair since his split from wife Kris Jenner.

    On Saturday, Jenner let loose his shoulder-length hair, which reportedly looked healthier and more lustrous than his previous hairstyles. New York Daily News reported that Jenner had been sporting a ginger mullet only a few weeks back. His current hairstyle apparently looks like a throwback to the way he wore his hair in the 1976 Summer Olympics, where he bagged the gold for the decathlon in Montreal.

    Jenner was seen with his son Brandon Jenner and daughter-in-law Leah, who were there to watch the concert with him. Jenner was reportedly in the company of a mystery brunette, making the outing seem more like a double date. Daily Mail reported that the brunette bore “more than a passing resemblance” to Jenner’s wife Kris, down to her all-black ensemble of skinny leather pants and shirt.

    Jenner himself reportedly looked as if he had styled his hair, since it fell around his face in soft layers instead of being the coppery frizz he used to wear trimmed above his ears while married to Kris. Jenner wore a checkered shirt on top of blue jeans instead of his usual ensemble of polo-shirt and shorts, making an effort to look great that night.

    Just the day before, Jenner wore a casual ensemble of gray athletic pants, striped polo-shirt and a pair of army print slip-on shoes while running errands in Los Angeles.

    Jenner recently filed for divorce from wife Kris almost a year after they split.

  • Kendall Jenner May Fulfill Dreams Of Becoming Victoria’s Secret Angel

    After wowing the fashion world with great walks at New York Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week, Kendall Jenner is all set to achieve another dream: to be a Victoria’s Secret Angel. Rumors are circulating that Kendall is next in line to join the beautiful models who represent the iconic lingerie brand.

    Some Victoria’s Secret Angels who have graced the widely-viewed Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show include supermodels Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum and Naomi Campbell. Now that Kendall has logged in some serious fashion shows in New York and Paris, the 18-year-old is reportedly raring to join their ranks and try what she once called her “dream modeling job.”

    Kendall might just get her chance, too. According to In Touch Weekly, a source disclosed that Victoria’s Secret is eyeing Kendall to be their next Angel for this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. “They saw all the buzz she got from walking in New York Fashion Week. They’d love to lock in a contract with her,” said the source.

    Kendall has also been photographed by longtime Victoria’s Secret collaborator Russell James for his book, Angels, which was launched in September. The book includes portraits of Adriana Lima, Karlie Kloss and Candice Swanepoel, supermodels who have also been Victoria’s Secret Angels. The outlook seems positive for Kendall’s Angel aspirations, especially since she has modeled for big designers such as Diane von Furtenberg, Donna Karan, Marc Jacobs and brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi and Pucci.

    One fashion icon singing his praises for Kendall is designer Michael Kors. The Project Runway judge recently spoke to E! News at the special dinner he hosted for Claiborne Swanson Frank's new book Young Hollywood in Beverly Hills. “I think she’s a strong, powerful, great-looking girl. She’s a real professional. I love that her card just says Kendall. So she’s not trading on her name and I think she’s going to have a great career,” Kors said.

  • Liv Tyler Steps Out After Confirmation Of News That She’s Pregnant

    After she confirmed last week that rumors about her being pregnant were true, Liv Tyler stepped out and graced Paris Fashion Week without concealing her baby bump. Tyler reportedly flew into Paris to attend the Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2015 show on Wednesday, October 1, where she made no effort to hide her growing belly.

    Tyler wore her baby bump proudly in a periwinkle blue floral dress she donned for the Miu Miu fashion show, which she paired with open-heeled black peep-toe boots. She reportedly looked radiant and was seen sitting with actors Hailee Steinfeld, Nicola Peltz and Shailene Woodley.

    Meanwhile, Tyler was also spotted in Orly Airport on Thursday, October 2, after making her appearance at Paris Fashion Week. Tyler was wearing a beige cable-knit cardigan over a blue lace shirt dress that she paired with over-the-knee boots. Although barely showing, Tyler’s baby bump could still be seen under her sweater.

    Tyler is pregnant with her second child after having her son Milo, nine, with Spacehog frontman Royston Langdon while they were married from 2003 to 2008. Her second baby was conceived with her current boyfriend, Dave Gardner, a sports and entertainment manager who is reportedly close to football star David Beckham. Tyler and Gardner met several years ago through Kate Moss but only started dating four months ago. Tyler and Gardner were reportedly seen vacationing over the summer with Moss and her rocker husband Jamie Hince in Europe.

    Tyler’s father, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler, told MailOnline last Wednesday that he was excited about his daughter’s second pregnancy. “I am over the moon that we are adding another member to our wolfpack. Being a father and a grandfather is the greatest gift in life so far,” he said.

    On Friday, Tyler was again spotted in New York City, running errands. Her maternity wear consisted of a floral dress covered with a big, gray-hooded pea coat. She was wearing sunglasses, black leggings and motorcycle boots.
