According to a report from PageSix.com, Lizzo recently came out to address some haters on her social media, after she shared a picture on her account and some people had a problem with it. The star dropped a nude selfie on the ‘Gram and her response to the haters was swift.

The 31-year-old “Truth Hurts” singer shared a photo of herself on Friday afternoon along with a caption that stated, “kiss my a**, doh!” She also added an image of The Simpsons protagonist, Homer Simpson. According to the Inquisitr, her post caused somewhat of a negative response from people online.

Several social media commenters urged her to stop posting such pictures and adding at the same time that they had no choice but to unfollow her account. Another person added, “you can love your body without posting a**crack pictures, everything ain’t for the media.”

Just a few hours before, Lizzo shared photos of her trip to Disneyland, the place where she celebrated receiving eight Grammy nominations.

Earlier this year, Lizzo’s song, “Truth Hurts,” was on the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks in a row and it became the longest-running number-one song by a female rap artist ever. Additionally, it’s the only song by a female rap artist without a feature to hold the spot.

The track earned several nominations for Lizzo. Other stars who are up for awards this year include Lil Nas X, 20, and Billie Eilish, 17. Not only is Lizzo up for a number of awards, but she’s also slated to perform at the American Music Awards this Sunday.

On Wednesday, Dick Clark Productions announced that Lizzo, Dua Lipa, Camilla Cabello, and Billie Eilish were performing at the show. Interestingly, at another point in this year, Lizzo stated that she was considering leaving the music industry. Another star to say she was bailing out of the music business was Nicki Minaj.

On social media, rumor had it that the rift between herself and Cardi B played a crucial role in her claim that she was taking time off, as well as her one-sided feud with Travis Scott after Astroworld beat her record.

Deena Cortes is responding to all the backlash surrounding the speech she, JWoww and Snooki gave at cast member, Angelina Pivarnick’s wedding.

In true Jersey Shore fashion, there was drama at Pivarnick’s nuptials to Chris Larangeira this week. Cortes, as well as Jennifer “JWoww” Farley and Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, served as bridesmaids at the wedding. It was shocking that JWoww and Snooki were in the bridal party considering the drama surrounding JWoww’s much younger boyfriend, Zack Carpinello.

The ladies appeared to have put all their differences aside to celebrate Pivarnick’s special day. Well, that all changed when Cortese, Snooki, and JWoww gave what is being called a “mean girls” speech that allegedly sent the bride out of the room crying.

Now Cortese is setting the record straight and defending the speech that reportedly got them booed at the reception.

“Listen I understand your all upset about our speech but we also included nice things in it as well,” Deena wrote in a now-deleted private Instagram post published on Friday. “We thought since Angelina always says ‘I never take myself seriously’ she would truly laugh at the stuff we said .. clearly we were wrong .. we’re friggen human .. people make mistakes,” she began her message.

The new mom went on to blast the haters for threatening her 10-month old son because they are pissed at what Cortese, Snooki, and JWoww did.

“But wishing bad on my son .. how are you any better?” she continued. “Our speech was not meant to be malicious .. we actually did a lot while filming with Angelina for her wedding .. I’m not a mean person and our intentions were never negative … yes we had a ‘roast’ part which yes I understand no one agrees with but Chris’ one brother brought up his period s–t tattoo .. so why is us making jokes during a speech a problem .. we truly thought she was going to laugh and right after we went into how lucky we are to have her in our lives and she’s the sister we needed in the house,” Cortese ended her now-deleted Instagram post.

The MTV cameras were reportedly rolling at the wedding, which means the speech just might air on the next season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

Deena Cortes is defending the speech she, JWoww and Snooki gave at Pivarnick’s wedding. Fans are not all accepting of her words though. The post added even more fuel to the fire, prompting Cortes to delete it.

What did you think of the Cores’ response to the backlash?

Angelina Pivarnick is currently not speaking to her female Jersey Shore castmates after they trashed her during a speech on her wedding day. Audio has leaked from the cringe-worthy moments and new details have become available.

A source exclusively told Champion Daily what exactly went down during the reality star’s nuptials. Apparently, Deena Cortese, Jenni Farley, and Nicole Polizzi were not even scheduled to speak.

However, once they did — everything went awry. In audio released from the reception ceremony, Snooki and co. can be heard calling Pivarnick the ‘fly on her s***,’ ‘trash to their bags,’ and ‘dump to their islands.’

Reportedly, the crowd laughed at first but started booing after the women went too far. Angelina tried to laugh it off while her new husband Chris Larangeira was clearly not amused.

The insider claimed: ‘This was a really awful thing to do to someone on their wedding day and you could tell the men from the Jersey Shore cast seemed visibly uncomfortable with what was going down. Not only was Angelina upset and offended, but all of her husband’s family and friends were there and this was a disgusting thing to do in front of them as well, as they’re attacking and offending the person he just married.’

They went on to say that Angelina went missing for nearly an hour and when she came back attendees noticed that she had been crying.

The three friends allegedly kept saying that it was a joke.

Deena was forced to speak out after getting slammed on social media for the incident. She claims that in the midst of the insults, they also expressed how happy they were for her.

The MTV personality stated in an Instagram post-and-delete: ‘Listen I understand your [sic] all upset about our speech but we also included nice things in it as well .. we thought since Angelina always says ‘I never take myself seriously’ she would truly laugh at the stuff we said. Clearly we were wrong .. we’re friggen human ..people make mistakes .. But wishing bad on my son .. how are you any better. Our speech was not meant to be malicious .. we actually did a lot while filming with Angelina for her wedding.’

She added that she was going to stay quiet until followers started trashing her infant son.

According to a report from PageSix.com, Damon Dash just got out of jail and he celebrated his exit from the institution while at a party on the Lower East Side. This past Wednesday, Damon was arrested by authorities for failing to make child support payments, however, not long after, he hosted a party at the Canary Club.

The star introduced a new band there called “Billy Pablo The Third,” and stated they were the “Black Guns.” Damon stated before the audience that he brought his entire crew up from Los Angeles and hadn’t been in that area for six years.

Reportedly, Dash and his band performed from 9:30 pm until around 1:00 am, and the outlet stated that he was drinking vodka sodas the entire night. As it was previously reported, the co-founder of Roc-A-Fella records was accused of owing nearly half-a-million dollars to two different women.

The business mogul filed legal documents this past week stating he didn’t have any money. Joseph Fucito, the NYC Sheriff, revealed they had been trying to arrest him since 2015, four years ago. Outside of the court, Dash stated he didn’t have any money problems, and he had already paid the amount he owed.

“No more warrants, everything is clear,” the Roc-A-Fella co-founder added. Reported by TMZ back in the final week of September, the outlet stated that Damon Dash didn’t want to pay any more money to his ex-wife, Rachel Roy.

Damon reportedly tried to have the judge toss out his child support obligations. Mr. Dash claimed he no longer wanted to pay for his 19-year-old child girl with Rachel, Ava. Initially, Dash agreed to pay $6,000 per month for both children, however, the obligation supposedly didn’t stop at 18-years-old.

TMZ reports that Dash didn’t have the money to support the payments, and in 2018, he only made $56,000. Additionally, Damon claims his ex-wife makes around $500,000 per year and lives a very luxurious lifestyle all over the world, including trips to India, Greece, and Europe. According to Dash, via TMZ, he pays around $3,666 per month for their 11-year-old’s private education.

Keeping Up With the Kardashians star Kim Kardashian recently appeared in the Vogue web series Life In Looks to review 21 of her most iconic looks from the past 15 years. And, the mom of four revealed what the worst look of her life was and explained why she cried all the way home from the 2013 Met Gala.

Kardashian started with early looks in the mid-2000s before she was a reality TV star and went all the way through this year’s iconic wet look at the Met Gala. She originally called her red Foley dress that she wore to the Season 1 premiere party for Keeping Up With the Kardashians the worst look of her life, and she revealed that she borrowed the dress from the family’s now-closed clothing boutique Dash before returning it and re-tagging it.

“Obviously, it’s cringeworthy but, like, I still respect it and laugh and think, ‘Oh my god, that was so cute. I was so clueless,’” said Kardashian. “This was probably one of my worst looks of life.”

But then she turned the page, and realized that she wore something even worse.

The 39-year-old said that her most cringeworthy look of all time was from a 2006 Us Weekly party when she wore a gray white-collared sweater dress with a large Fendi belt and boots. Kardashian explained that she was excited at the time because she was able to afford the Fendi accessories, and all she wanted was for someone to take her picture.

“Anytime I could go to an event, I would,” admitted Kardashian. “Because I just wanted my picture taken. That’s all that mattered to me.”

Later, Kardashian came across her Givenchy floral maternity gown that she wore to the Met Gala in 2013 when she was “very pregnant” with her daughter North. She explained that she wanted a stretchy fabric that would easily be altered to fit her growing belly, and they had the dress both in black and the floral print.

Kardashian wanted to wear the black, but her stylist encouraged her to wear the floral. However, after she was photographed in the dress, social media went crazy with memes comparing her to a floral couch.

“I was crying, like, the whole way home because I just couldn’t believe it. There were all these memes about me and this couch,” said Kardashian. “I think Robin Williams even tweeted it, said I looked like Mrs. Doubtfire. It was like this whole thing, so I just cried.”

Now, Kim Kardashian believes the look is “sick” and way ahead of its time. She says the Oleson twins came up to her that night and told her they loved her dress, so none of the critics mattered because the Oleson twins approved.

New episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians will return to E! on Sunday, December 1st.

According to a report from CNN.com, Gahan Wilson, the famous cartoonist by the name “The Wizard Of Weird” and “the Michelangelo of the Macabre,” passed away at the 89-years claims his step-son, Paul Wilson.

Wilson said that the world had lost a great artist and described him as one of the greatest cartoonists on earth. Wilson became famous for his work in institutional magazines likes National Lampoon, The New Yorker, as well as Playboy.

Perhaps one of his more famous cartoons features a man sitting in an electric char and uttering the line, “Gee, it’s just like in the movies.” This past Halloween, Gahan shared an image from Playboy on his Facebook page.

You can check out Paul’s Facebook post below:

Another famous Gahan cartoon was of a deranged doctor with a knife who’s about to murder his patient. The joke of the cartoon was in the words of the eye-exam chart, which stated that the doctor was an insane optometrist who was about to murder his patient. During a conversation with David Letterman in 1982, Wilson stated that he was always attracted to bizarre images, specifically, freaks and circus sideshows.

Initially, he enjoyed reading gothic novels for inspiration, however, as time went on, he realized there was a lot more inspiration to be found just through living his life every day. The cartoonist explained on the show that newspapers and the daily news were a much better source.

On his Facebook page, Gahan’s step-son shared that Wilson was born on the 18th of February, 1930, and he died this past Thursday while surrounded by his family. On the artist’s website, it stated that he was once laughed at by an editor who thought his work was outrageous.

According to Wilson’s Wikipedia page, his work was very similar to that of Charles Addams, who also created the Addams Family and worked for The New Yorker. However, Wilson’s work featured more modern elements including serial killers. Earlier this year, Paul Winters revealed that Wilson had “advanced dementia,” and he died from complications due to the disease.

Now that R. Kelly is locked up and has a slim to none chance of getting released from jail any time soon, his (ex) girlfriend is speaking out. After she started to detail what happened to her via social media, the singer’s attorney has decided to refute her claims.

Joycelyn Savage was allegedly recruited by R. Kelly when she was 19-years-old with hope for a music career that turned into her being his live-in girlfriend that had to abide by strict rules.

However, the R&B musician’s attorney Steve Greenberg said that the woman is only saying these things because she is in need of money.

The lawyer tweeted: ‘It is unfortunate that Jocelyn now seeks to make money by exploiting her long time, loving relationship with Robert. Obviously if she were to tell the truth no one would pay so she has, unfortunately, chosen to regurgitate the stories and lies told by others for her own personal profit.  We know the real facts, and it was not until the money ran out that she decided anything was wrong. Hopefully people will see it for the Obvious profiteering it is.’

Opinions are split when it comes to Joycelyn’s story. Some feel that she is only speaking out because R. Kelly is no longer able to provide for her while others feel that it’s her story to tell and she may have been scared of the consequences had she spoken out before he was locked away.

Additionally, there are quite a few spectators in the comment section of the Shade Room and the Neighborhood Talk that believe that this could be a scheme set up by the singer himself!

These conspiracy theorists believe that now that Robert’s well has run dry, he is going to use his remaining girlfriends to make him money while maintaining his innocence. What do you believe?

Rihanna chose an unusual way to promote her Fenty brand recently, as the 31-year-old star shared some provocative photos on Instagram.

During a midnight swim, the diva flaunted her curvy figure in a skimpy bikini top that could barely hold her cleavage and combined the swimwear with an oversized shirt in black with patterns in different shades of yellow and green.

In some of the pictures, the music star can be seen standing in a pool, while in others, she preferred to show her fans a more close-up look of the brown sunglasses she was wearing.

The fashion mogul referenced her brand by captioning the post with “#trouble on Fenty.com,” naming the line of the sunglasses in the picture.

For the night shooting session, Rihanna chose a more natural look, as she left her dark curly hair falling freely and wore almost no makeup.

The diva’s numerous followers appreciated the post and raced to post praise and positive words.

Some congratulated her for her outstanding looks, while others said she made them very proud.

Even some celebrities showed their approval, among who was also supermodel Bella Hadid, who commented with “Yaaaaaaa” under the post.

One person said: “This has got to be one of the best pics I’ve seen this week. You’re like, “No, biggie. Lemme just jump in the pool with my Prada top.” #iconic. ”

This follower wrote: “I can’t believe the girls have grown so big❤️❤️❤️🔥 They are super perky. I like them❤️ Not to be dramatic, but I don’t know a better person.”

Another fan revealed: “The fact that u matched ur nails with the shades >>>>You look so fire 🔥 in those shades babe I love em with your gorgeous butt❤️❤️way too beautiful to be real. ”

Rihanna’s post comes after the star recently shared an overwhelming message, in which she expressed her deep appreciation and gratitude towards her closest friends and family.

The singer promised she would try to lead a more balanced life after the stressful year she’s been through.

In addition to developing her fashion brand, RiRi reportedly has been working on her ninth studio album, which her fans are waiting impatiently for since her last album Anti was released back in 2016.

It might be released next year.

According to a report from JustJared.com, James McAvoy has been turned down for a number of roles in the past on account of his height. The 5’7″ 40-year-old actor claimed he once had a leading actress say their on-screen romance wasn’t believable due to the height difference between them.

Speaking with reporters from The Telegraph, Mr. McAvoy said that “as a shorter man,” he has been turned down for characters repeatedly. The star says he is often made to feel as though “something can be done” about his height.

According to James, a female co-star once asked if it was possible for him to even take on the role because he was just too short. The star added that it was like a “kick in the nuts.” James said it was challenging to pretend he really liked working with her afterward.

Mr. McAvoy claimed there have been many situations in his career thus far where he has been made to feel as though he’s not good looking enough. Despite McAvoy’s struggles in the industry, there is no question he has managed to prevail.

Fans of the actor know he has received critical acclaim in the past for his diverse roles, including, perhaps most recent, Split, from M. Night Shymalan.

His work extends far beyond the dramatic as well, even appearing in the X-Men films including 2011’s X-Men: First Class, as well as Days Of Future Past and Apocalypse. According to James’ Wikipedia page, he earned a Golden Globe nomination for his work in the 2007 film, Atonement.

This past year, McAvoy starred in M. Night Shyamalan’s newest film, Glass, the third film in Shymalan’s movie series featuring Unbreakable, Split, and Glass. Starring McAvoy, Samuel L. Jackson, and Bruce Willis, the film exceeded box office expectations and performed well against its $20 million budget.

However, the movie wasn’t appreciated by critics, who often described it was “underwhelming” as well as “disappointing.” On the review aggregator website, Rotten Tomatoes, Glass has just a 37% rating, based on 355 reviews.

Liam Hemsworth’s sister in law, Elsa Pataky, did not hesitate to throw some shade at his former wife, Miley Cyrus by suggesting that he ‘deserves much better’ than her! That being said, one insider report claims to know how she reacted to the diss.

Ever since their separation earlier this year, Miley and Liam have both remained pretty quiet about their failed relationship but the same cannot be said about the wife of Liam’s brother, Chris Hemsworth.

Elsa was asked to update fans of how Liam has been doing in the aftermath of the shocking split and she definitely delivered!

However, one insider tells HollywoodLife that Miley is not letting the mean comment affect her too much.

‘Miley really isn’t concerned one way or another with what Elsa says or thinks about her. Miley knows the truth about her relationship and what went down between them. Miley wishes everyone would respect their privacy and not talk about their past in public because Liam and she are the only ones who actually know the full truth.’

They went on to dish that ‘Miley understands they both have family and loved ones who’ve shown them support during this split, but does not think anyone should be speaking negatively about their current situation. Miley’s family has never mentioned one word about Liam, and she’d like his family to respect the same boundaries.’

That’s not to say that Elsa’s words didn’t still come as a shock to Miley as well as her close friends and family members who heard about it.

After all, the former sisters in law were once super close to the point that they even got matching tattoos!
