Kim Kardashian Slams Fat Shamers In C Magazine Cover Story
She’s excited to be pregnant with her second child, though Kim Kardashian told C magazine that the process of conception “took the fun out of” trying to get knocked up.
The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star explained, “It was over a year of trying and I had so many complications. I had this condition called placenta accrete. There were a couple little operations to fix all that, so that created a little hole in my uterus, which I think made it really tough to get pregnant again.”
Kim also addressed the way the public shamed her for her weight gain when she was preggers with daughter North West- “I am lucky that, as of right now, I don’t feel like I’m gonna get preeclampsia again, which last time [contributed to] not only the weight, but also the swelling that everyone would make fun of, not understanding that I had this condition. It was the worst! I couldn’t help it, and everyone would say, ‘She can’t stop eating.’ I delivered at 180, and they were like, ‘She’s 210 pounds. She’s getting dumped because she’s too fat,’ and all these ridiculous stories.”

The former "RHOA" star is spending time on both the west coast and in the Atlanta area in her brand new multi million dollar home. Speaking of "RHOA," NeNe's former "RHOA" co-star and frenemy, Kim Zolciak, has not ruled out filming their spinoff road-trip reality show together that has been put on hold. Kim revealed recently on "WWHL":
“It has to do with scheduling. She’s got her stuff going on. I’ve got ‘Don’t Be Tardy’, then Kroy is in football. It’s a lot. It’s a lot for me to leave for that period of time.”
She says they haven't completely ruled out the possibility of going forward with the show. Anyway as for the new hair. Is it a HIT or a MISS?
Oh? So FINALLY Mia Isabella Confirms Relationship with Tyga!
Transgender porn actress Mia Isbella confirms once and for all that she and Tyga were a thing…
Mia explains in a video posted on Youtube, that has now unfortunately made private!
“Did I have a relationship with this person is what everyone wants to know. Yes we were friends for many years but that’s all I’m going to say unless I’m put in a position where I have no choice but to present the facts. I don’t feel that it’s anyone’s business what two individuals have done behind closed doors and the trust that comes from their connection. I don’t think that it’s fair for someone to try to demand that those details be shared with the public…”
Well Tyga…..it’s now definitely YOUR MOVE!

Swift's face after perfectly summed up viewers response to West's speech:
Cyrus' fashion certainly caught the attention of viewers, too. The former Disney Channel star, known for her outlandish and at times revealing fashion choices, made several wardrobe changes throughout the night.
The most tense moment of the VMAs came when Minaj called out Cyrus for recently taking aim at the "Anaconda" singer in the press.
When accepting her award for best hip hop video, Minaj turned to Cyrus and said, "Back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me the other day in the press. Miley, what's good?"

The night ended with a surprise performance by Cyrus herself.

Legendary Horror Director Wes Craven Dead At 76
The "Scream" and "Nightmare on Elm Street" auteur redefined the slasher genre.
Wes Craven, the director of "A Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Scream," died Sunday at 76. The celebrated horror master battled brain cancer, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Craven is one of the past few decades' most recognizable filmmakers, having transformed the slasher movie with the aforementioned box-office triumphs, both of which spawned numerous sequels. "Scream," in particular, is credited with reinvigorating the teen horror film thanks to a tongue-in-cheek script that both parodied and praised the genre.
But long before "Scream" became one of 1996's highest-grossing releases, Craven cemented his status as the influential writer and director of exploitation films like "The Last House on the Left" (1972), "The Hills Have Eyes" (1977) "Swamp Thing" (1982) and "The People Under the Stairs" (1991). He broke from his signature genre with the 1999 drama "Music of the Heart," for which Meryl Streep earned an Oscar nomination, and one of the shorts within the acclaimed 2006 anthology film "Paris, je t'aime." He returned to form with the thriller "Red Eye" (2005), the supernatural box-office dud "My Soul To Take" (2010) and the long-anticipated fourth installment in the "Scream" franchise (2011). At the time of his death, the Craven-produced MTV series based on "Scream" was days away from airing its Season 1 finale.
Craven was born in 1939 in Cleveland, Ohio, and raised in a strict Baptist family. He earned a Master's degree in philosophy and writing from Johns Hopkins University. He taught college briefly before abandoning academia for the world of cinema, rapidly establishing himself as an auteur who imbued his chilling films with questions about the nature of everyday existence. But Craven said in a 2009 interview that his horror legacy was pure "coincidence," as his debut film, "The Last House on the Left," came about after he and producer Sean S. Cunningham were approached by financiers to make a scary drive-in feature. That launching pad allowed the remainder of his career to channel a singular vision that can be defined by Skeet Ulrich's quote in "Scream": "Movies don't create psychos. Movies make psychos more creative."
The news of the director's death broke during the MTV Video Music Awards. And many were on Twitter sending their tributes and condolences! R.I.P Wes!

Chris Brown Celebrates 10 Years In The Music Business
Congratulations are in order for Chris Brown who celebrated a very successful 10 years in the music business on Thursday with his rockstar team.
Breezy shared an image on Instagram of himself being honored with a plaque with all the top honors and accolades of the past decade. This includes 10 million albums sold worldwide, 60 million singles sold worldwide, 3.5 billion YouTube views, 2.3 billion audio streams worldwide, 1 Grammy Award Best R&B Album – ‘F.A.M.E’, 14 BET awards – 31 nominations, #1 rhythm radio AirPlay artist 2012 & 2014 and 19 #1 hits.
It’s also no secret that the 26-year-old has had a rough ten years in his personal life. From jail time, to rehab, to on-again off-again relationships between Rihanna and Karrueche Tran, Brown has endured quite a bit in his 20’s, but we can’t deny that the pop star is incredibly talented and well deserving of these accolades.

Rihanna comes and celebrates her Stylist’s NYC Nuptials!
When it comes to showing support for her friends' most important milestones, Rihanna is one to make it her business to be there. The Bajan beauty hopped on a flight from L.A. to Manhattan just in time to celebrate with her stylist Sonya Benson on her wedding day in Midtown Saturday evening.
The Pop princess got all glammed up in a floor-length silver kimono patterned with orange lotus flowers that she styled with a pair of metallic Tom Ford ankle lock sandals. She ditched the cropped blue wig she was spotted rocking earlier in the day, going back to her golden blonde curly tresses she has been rocking lately pulled up into a high ponytail.
During the wedding festivities, the “BBHMM” singer, who’s first album Music of the Sun celebrates its 10th anniversary today, hopped on the mic to gift the newlyweds, along with party guests, with a live performance during the reception at the American Whiskey Bar.
Let's hope "BBHMM" wasn't one of the selections….LOL!
