News & Updates

Harry Morton – the CEO and founder of Pink Taco and former boyfriend of actress Lindsay Lohan – was found dead in his Beverly Hills mansion on Saturday. Morton is the son of Peter Morton, who founded the Hard Rock Cafe, and the grandson of Arnie Morton, who founded Morton’s Steakhouse. He was just 38 years old.

According to The Blast, Morton was found unresponsive in his home and was later pronounced dead before being transported to the L.A. County Coroner’s Office for an autopsy to determine the cause of death.

“It should also be noted that Harry was a volunteer sheriff’s deputy in and around L.A. — specifically, with the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station, where he was recently honored as a Reserve Detective of the Year. ” https://t.co/6I8bASZeLR

Even though his dad and grandfather made the Morton name famous with their respective restaurant chains, Harry became successful on his own when he founded the trendy Hollywood eatery Pink Taco in 1999. He was also the owner of the popular live music venue The Viper Room.

Harry’s first Pink Taco restaurant was at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada, and he added a second location in Scottsdale, Arizona, in 2006. The third location opened in Century City, Los Angeles in 2007.

However, the Scottsdale location closed after just three years due to controversy surrounding the name of the restaurant, which a few people found offensive and degrading to women. In 2012, Harry told Haute Living how he came up with the name of his restaurant, which specializes in Mexican cuisine.

“If I could go back, I would change the name. It started off as a funny idea.; it was a joke at the time,” explained Morton. “But now we pride ourselves on our ability to evolve, and the food speaks for itself. We’re not trying to be a one-trick pony or a funny-named restaurant. The name isn’t even provocative anymore, it’s almost cliché. If we kept trying to play that hand it would be boring. The name is what it is. But at least it’s catchy and internationally known.”

Pink Taco released a statement remembering Morton, calling him “a visionary and restaurateur ahead of his time” https://t.co/V2EnR2UP9d

Morton was an active supporter of local law enforcement and served as a reserve deputy with the West Hollywood Sheriff’s department. He was honored last year as the Reserve Detective of the Year at the annual Reserve Forces Recognition dinner.

In addition to dating Lohan, Morton was also linked to Demi Moore, Britney Spears, Jenifer Aniston, and former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville.

Lindsay Lohan has not commented on the death of her ex-boyfriend. But, her mom Dina posted a pic of her daughter with Harry Morton on Instagram and wrote in the caption that God has an angel. She also sent prayers to Morton’s family.

Gabrielle Union is definitely happier than ever now that she is finally a mother and she wants the whole world to know it!

The clip she posted showed the one year old toddler running around with a lot of energy and cheeriness and Gabrielle also took this opportunity to celebrate her skin color.

According to a report from BET.com, Porsha Williams, the Real Housewives Of Atlanta alum, wasn’t fond of Loni Love discussing her recent relationship problems. During a relatively new episode of the television talk show, The Real, Loni stated that Porsha was definitely “trying to get that reality show.”

Loni was on The Real chatting about Porsha’s tumultuous relationship with Dennis McKinley, the father of her child. In response to Loni’s remarks, Porsha wrote on Instagram, “B*tch, F you! #FakeA** don’t run up smiling when I see you!”

Many of Porsha’s followers began filing up her comment section, stating that everyone on earth has problems of their own, and they don’t have a “perfect man.” The 38-year-old reality star went on to say that nobody had a perfect man, not even Loni who’s dating James Welsh.

Reported first by The Blast, Williams later claimed she was above such drama and wanted to take down the post. Porsha added she would pull it off Instagram after Loni saw it. Loni subsequently responded to her post by stating she didn’t say anything bad about her.

The 48-year-old comedienne went on to say it was merely a “light-hearted comment,” and she hoped Porsha managed to get her show. Afterward, Porsha deleted the post as well as all the comments that followed.

As it was previously reported, Porsha had had a lot of issues with her man and fiancé, Dennis. Following his proposition for marriage in 2018, Porsha, who was pregnant at the time, called off their engagement on account of infidelity accusations.

Fans of the reality star know that Porsha and Dennis have an 8-month-old daughter, and they have since managed to work it out. Their issues were broadcasted on Bravo TV’s Real Housewives Of Atlanta.

Another RHOA alum to experience romance issues as of late was Kenya Moore, who broke up with Marc Daly after it was revealed he had purportedly been seeing other women. Their breakup came as a surprise to fans of the couple who considered them as a match made in heaven.

While in attendance at an event, it seemed like several Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast members were trying to throw some shade at former co-star, Lisa Vanderpump. More precisely, Dorit Kemsley, newcomer, Sutton Stracke, as well as Kim Richards all wore crowns as they posed for pics which might mean that they were making reference to Lisa’s season 7 tagline!

Now, fans are convinced Kylie Richards was indeed dissing her ex best friend with her post.

All three ladies can be seen rocking crowns with floral motifs as they pose for the camera and in the caption, Kyle wrote: ‘If the crown fits, wear it 👑.’

At the time, the RHOBH co-stars were are a Dolce and Gabbana store in Rome, Italy and were definitely feeling themselves!

As for the reason why social media thinks the crowns and the picture’s caption were all meant to shade the former member of the cast, it’s that in season 7, Lisa Vandeprump’s tagline was: ‘The crown is heavy, darlings. So just leave it where it belongs.’

And that is not all! This pic comes after Erika Girardi pretty much declared Kyle the new ‘queen’ of the series since she is an OG.

Erika told boss Andy Cohen that ‘Not only is she the original, but she’s the leader of the group. ..Because she is the one we are all connected to, she binds us together.’

Dorit, who also has beef with Lisa over the whole PuppyGate scandal, took to her platform to share a clip of the three ladies posing with the crowns as well, writing alongside it: ‘Outta my way ladies 😂👑@kylerichards18 @suttonstracke @dolcegabbana.’

Fittingly enough, in the video, she pushes them away.

To make it even more obvious that they were shading Lisa, Dorit’s husband, PK commented: ‘Clearly wasn’t that heavy …🤣.’

In case you were thinking the crown-wearing and the captions were just a coincidence, the man’s comment shattered all doubts about their intentions.

Just because he is one of the biggest soccer stars on the planet doesn’t mean David Beckham can’t get a little star struck when he is in the same vicinity as one of his favorite actresses. Beckham recently met Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke when he was backstage at a Fleetwood Mac concert, and he took the opportunity to take a selfie with the Mother of Dragons and post the encounter on Instagram.

Beckham and Clarke were at the Dreamforce conference in San Francisco this week, which is an annual event put on by Salesforce. And, both the soccer superstar and the Emmy-nominated actress spoke at the conference before the Fleetwood Mac concert.

“Again I was a little star struck whist being in the same vicinity of the Mother Of Dragons,” Beckham wrote in the caption of the pic. “So nice to see @emilia_clarke in San Fran whilst being wowed by Fleetwood Mac 🔥 #dreamforce2019.”

Beckham also got the chance to take three different selfies with Fleetwood Mac members Stevie Nicks, Christina McVie, and Mick Fleetwood, and he wrote in the caption, “What a night in San Francisco seeing Fleetwood Mac.”

The 44-year-old also took a pic of Clarke with Nicks, which she posted on her Instagram page. Clarke said in the caption that it was “no big deal” that Nicks wanted to say hi to her on stage. Clarke then wrote that she loves Nicks, and she thanked Beckham for capturing the greatest moment of her life so far.

Beckham has never been shy about expressing his love for Game of Thrones, and he was extremely excited earlier this year when Gwendoline Christie – who played Brienne of Tarth – sent him an “amazing” birthday message. In the video clip, Christie told Beckham that she will shield his back, keep his counsel, and give her life for his, if need be, before ending the video with, “Happy birthday David, from Brienne of Tarth.”

As for Clarke, she has moved on to new projects since Game of Thrones ended back in May. However, she did recently reveal on Dax Shepard’s podcast Armchair Expert that she had no idea how many nude scenes she would be doing when she signed on to Game of Thrones to play Daenerys Targaryen.

Clarke says she came to terms with it before they started shooting the first season, and her co-star Jason Mamoa made her feel more comfortable.

“Now things are very different,” Clarke said, adding, “And I am a lot more savvy with what I am comfortable with and what I’m okay with doing.”

Emilia Clarke is currently starring in the holiday romantic comedy Last Christmas, which is in theaters nationwide.

According to a report from PageSix.com, Prince Andrew’s future in the royal family, including the financial aspect, has been called into question. Earlier this year, the Prince gave an interview with BBC which was described as quite bizarre by many media figures.

Reportedly, due to Andrew’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, he has been kicked out of the royal family by his mother, Queen Elizabeth, and he now has to pay for his own lifestyle. Page Six claims that the queen formerly gave Prince Andrew an annual salary of £249,000, also tax-free.

Additionally, the ex-royal family member received around another 20,000 British pounds from his Royal Navy pension. An insider who spoke with the outlet claimed Andrew has seemed quite wealthy over the last few years, and it’s not entirely clear how he managed to come upon so much money.

David McClure, an author, said to the United Kingdom’s Press Association that it was unclear how Andrew was managing to accrue wealth. In the past, it was speculated by many figures that Andrew supplemented his lifestyle through his role as the UK’s trade envoy.

He didn’t receive any direct money from the position, but he was often treated to luxury dinners from other members from different royal families and leaders of corporations. However, Andrew had to resign from the position in 2011 due to his relationship with the accused sex offender who allegedly killed himself.

Additionally, Andrew’s reputation was called into question for his meetings with autocrats from all over the world, including Muammar Gaddafi as well as Nursultan Nazarbayev. Four years ago in 2015, Andrew set up a dinner between the Queen and Nazarbayev at Buckingham Palace.

Furthermore, between 2001 and 2008, the Prince went to the UAE nine different times, including visits to Kuwait, Egypt, and Bahrain. The trips were typically paid for by British taxpayers. The Prince was supposed to be promoting British business, however, in 2005, the Trade Minister asked him to name a few contracts and he didn’t have any.

In an interview with BBC recently, the Prince admitted that he hung around Epstein for access to other powerful people around the world. Andrew described his relationship with Epstein as helpful in many ways, including for the way in which he had access to many powerful people.

Sabrina Parr has fully accepted Lamar Odom to be her husband — flaws and all. The athlete is a work in progress who had a serious porn addiction at the beginning of their relationship.

Sabrina took to Instagram where she opened up on how she got Lamar to stop watching porn. One of her tactics included taking his phone away from him!

Her video on Instagram turned into an ad for an app that blocks any adult content from the phone it’s installed on.

‘Parr captioned the testimony: ‘When I first met @lamarodom he had a SERIOUS porn addiction. I didn’t understand it. I didn’t know what to do. But I knew I wasn’t going to deal with it!!!!! The choices were; either you stop watching porn or I’m OUT! Lamar decided to stop watching porn!!! But, it wasn’t easy for him and he would be easily tempted. At first, he decided to just let me take his phone throughout the day so he wouldn’t have access to it. As flattered as I was, I didn’t like that idea because a man needs his phone! Thank God we found @covenant.eyes !!!! This app allowed him to keep his phone and block access to porn! Learn more about our story and how great @covenant.eyes has worked for us at www.covenanteyes.com/Lamar . You can also click the link in my bio!’

Odom is not alone with this addiction, his former brother-in-law Kanye West recently shared he once suffered from the same thing.

Although some people praised Sabrina for being honest about the struggle they went through as a couple, some people wanted her to keep that information to herself.

One person commented: ‘Lol, why are you airing this? This is extremely personal, I wish I didn’t know this about him. Some of y’all just get way too personal than I can handle. I follow you to maybe see a couple of happy pictures of y’all, and your great work out videos, etc, but this, you’re doing way too much. Y’all wasn’t even together that long, this is just not appropriate.’

Another added: ‘I would NEVER tell these women NANA of my sensitive? personal and private business on social media. There are some true slithering devils on social media.’

This person feels that she exploited her fiance for a money grab: ‘ARE SERIOUS LADY???? 🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️ LAMAR RUN! Question why you would associate his porn addiction to an app that’s paying you for promo?’

What do you think about Sabrina’s post?

According to a report from UsMagazine.com, Katherine Schwarzenegger took to her social media account to show gratitude for her man, Chris Pratt. The 29-year-old author took to her IG account on the 23rd of November to praise her husband, whom she described as both “kind” and “wonderful.”

Together with a photograph of The Guardians Of The Galaxy star, the star wrote a nice message for her hubby, stating she felt so “thankful and excited” to be with her family. According to the podcast host, Thanksgiving is her “second favorite holiday,” and she often feels very inspired to give back to her community.

You can check out Katherine’s Instagram post below:

In addition to praising her husband, Katherine shared kind words for her 64-year-old mother, Shriver, who was married to the 72-year-old Hollywood actor from 1986 until 2011. Reportedly, Pratt and Schwarzenegger started dating in June 2018 after being introduced to each other at church.

In January of this year, Pratt and Katherine announced their engagement and got married six months later in Montecito, California. Before then, Pratt was linked to Anna Faris from 2009 until 2018. They had a child together named Jack, who is 7-years-old.

The Schwarzenegger family is quite complicated. Reported by Page Six in June of this year, Joseph Baena, the child of Arnold and his housekeeper, Mildred Baena, took to Katherine’s social media to write, “congratulations,” along with several celebratory emojis.

Baena is now 21-years-old, and multiple outlets have pointed out that he looks a lot like the former governor of California. However, the 21-year-old son of Arnold wasn’t at his half-sister’s wedding in Montecito, California, on the 8th of June.

Fans of the Terminator alum know that he has four children with Shriver, including Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher, who are 29, 27, 25, and 21 respectively.

A source who spoke with Page Six explained that Katherine and Pratt don’t have a relationship with Joseph at all, although, the insider claimed the sons in the family know him a bit better than the girls.

Porsha Williams slammed Loni Love on social media after seeing a clip from The Real. Judging by a post to the comedienne’s Instagram Story, the two have made up.

During an episode of The Real, the ladies spoke about Porsha Williams taking back Dennis McKinley after he cheated on her while she was pregnant.

Adrienne Bailon defended the Real Housewives of Atlanta star by saying that ‘maybe Porsha knows what’s best for Porsha.’ Meanwhile, Tamera Mowry said that she would never be able to do it (especially on TV) and she doesn’t know anyone else that would marry a cheating spouse so quickly after scandal.

Loni Love chimed in to say: ‘Let me tell you something, Porsha trynna get that reality show, that’s what that is.’

She went on to say that she’s intrigued by the storyline and will be watching.

Williams did not take Loni’s comment lightly and took to social media to clap back.

She captioned a portion of the clip with: ‘B**ch F you! #FakeA** don’t run up smiling when I see you.’

It was clearly directed at Love who chimed in on the Shade Room to tell the mom: ‘Porsha…I didn’t say anything bad and you know it…it was a light hearted comment. I hope you get your show!’

On Sunday, the talk show host posted to her Instagram Stories a message that read: ‘Thx for listening and responding @porsha4real. I’ll keep my word to you. Family is everything and I wish you nothing but success. You are always welcome on The Real.’

The Bravolebrity hasn’t said anything else about the situation so far.

Recently, Porsha opened up about the relationship issues she and Dennis faced and how it will play out for the world to see.

‘What we’re going through is reality. Other people are going through it. By them seeing him take responsibility, me learning to forgive — all of that is something that will hopefully empower them,’ she told People Magazine.

Do you think Porsha should have forgiven Loni?
