Scott Stapp Blames Financial Woes on Criticism of President Obama <b>...</b>

Posted: 28 Nov 2014 03:27 AM PST

As previously reported, Scott Stapp is broke.

The Creed singer opened up about his dire situation via a strange video on Facebook Wednesday, telling fans he's been under a "vicious attack" by the IRS, which has frozen his bank accounts and left him "penniless."

Stapp asserts that money has been stolen from him and insisted in the footage that he's "sober," emphasizing that "truth will prevail."

Scott Stapp: I'm Broke!

Yesterday, meanwhile, Stapp conducted a radio interview and claimed his 2012 criticism of President Obama during a Fox News segment is why the government has made him a target.

"I believe that the IRS situation is definitely a result of me expressing my dissatisfaction with President Obama," he said. "Absolutely. 100 percent."

HOWEVER, Jaclyn Stapp tells another story.

According to TMZ, she filed for divorce from the artist last month and also filed legal documents that allege Scott Stapp has serious mental issues.

She says Stapp hears voices, has visions of people on fire, has threatened to kill himself and is in possession of man guns.

Jaclyn adds that her ex-husband is broke because he spends all his money on drugs such as cocaine, PCP, meth, marijuana and Special K.

She hopes that she can open up lines of communications with the troubled rocker in order to steer him in the right direction. We hope for the same.

THG Presents: The 10 Biggest Turkeys of 2014! - The <b>Hollywood</b> <b>...</b>

Posted: 27 Nov 2014 04:10 AM PST

Happy Thanksgiving, from The Hollywood Gossip family to yours.

What would this quintessential, traditional and uniquely American holiday be without family, food, football and appreciation for the things we hold dearest in this world?

In the case of THG, that means turkeys, in more ways than one.

Spencer Pratt is a Turkey

Who will win THG's 8th Annual Spencer Pratt Thanksgiving Turkey Award!?

On this 27th day of November, we're paying tribute to some of the celebrities we had the honor, the pleasure, and the burden of covering here in 2014.

We're talking straight up fowl individuals. Serious bird brains.

You get the idea. So who ruffled feathers with antics that left us shaking our heads, hanging our heads in shame, and laughing our heads off at the same time?

Without further ado, here are our Top 10 Turkeys of 2014 ...

10. Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott (tie). These two are really something else. Even in an era where shameless reality shows and celebs are pervasive.

9. Kylie Jenner's lips (and their critics). Are they surgically enhanced? Probably not, but Kylie Jenner's lips look pretty ridiculous. As do the haters who care so much.

8. June Shannon. What else is there to say at this point in time? Besides SIGH.

7. Scott Disick. We legitimately enjoy The Lord and the comic relief he brings to Keeping Up With the Kardashians and the celebrity gossip world overall.

Still, though. Dude needs to pull it together before he ruins his life and family.

Lord Disick often says what we're thinking. Especially when he's ragging on his baby mama's clueless sisters.

6. Adam Levine. Through no fault of his own, the above-average singer became astonishingly overexposed. The man is literally everywhere at all times.

Someone needs to vote him off of The Voice ... or the radio ... or something.

5. Hank Baskett. Either he hooked up with a transsexual model and tried to may him/her off, got played and set up by one, or made it all up for reality TV.

Any of those three options earn the Kendra on Top star a spot on this list.

4. Chris Brown. Even by Chris Brown standards, he had a pretty epic year of generating needless drama and controversy at seemingly every opportunity.

3. Florida Man. If you see a thoroughly ridiculous headline you think has to be from The Onion but is somehow real, chances are good it was Florida Man.

2. Justin Bieber. A former global teen heart throb now morphed into the globe's biggest douche, this year was the apex of a meltdown years in the making.

Hard to top for entertainment, yet at the same time kind of depressing.

1. Teresa Giudice. Living beyond her means, being bad at felony schemes and clueless about consequences, living in denial and showing no remorse?

Yup. Pretty much the definition of a turkey in our estimation.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at THG!!!!

Duck Dynasty Season 7 Episode 2 Recap: It&#39;s News to Them! - The <b>...</b>

Posted: 27 Nov 2014 06:47 AM PST

The Robertsons didn't have much time to lament Sadie Robertson's loss on the Dancing with the Stars finale this week.

That's because they had to prepare to host a local news broadcast last night. For real!

(Yes, we know Duck Dynasty Season 7 Episode 2 was taped a long time ago. Just go with it, okay?)

Watch Duck Dynasty Season 7 Episode 2 Online

The latest installment of this A&E hit found reality TV's favorite family (oh, we said it, Kardashians!) taking over "Good Morning Arklamiss."

And they proved themselves to be surprisingly adept at working far away from the woods.

There was Willie and Jase, serving as anchormen and keeping the production humming. There was Si as the weatherman, giving Al Roker a run for his entertaining money.

Kay, meanwhile, presented her beloved Thanksgiving recipes to the audience, while the rest of the relatives offered up some unique tips for the holiday season.

Ready to take some notes? To see if the Robertsons could take over for The Today Show team if need be? To see Jase actually dressed in a suit?!?

It happened, folks. And you can click on the video above to watch Duck Dynasty online to see all this craziness transpire.

Scott Stapp: Creed Frontman is Broke and Homeless, Blames <b>...</b>

Posted: 26 Nov 2014 11:35 AM PST

Scott Stapp - lead singer of the popular 90s Christian rock band Creed - posted an alarming video to his Facebook page earlier today:

In the clip, Stapp explains that he's broke, homeless, and living in a hotel, following several days of sleeping in his truck, and eventually being admitted to an emergency room.

Scott Stapp: Broke, Homeless

Stapp blames the federal government, claiming that an audit went awry, causing the IRS to seize every dollar he had to his name.

"I'm under some kind of pretty vicious attack," Stapp says in the clip. "I still haven't figured out why, except that about eight weeks ago I began an audit...During the course of audit a lot of things were uncovered. A lot of money was stolen from me."

"The IRS has frozen my bank accounts two or three times to leave me completely penniless. When I called to find out why, they said,  'Oh we had an address mix-up. It was a clerical error. We'll return your funds in 9 to 10 months."

"If any of you guys were worried, just know, I'm sober; I'm safe as of right now; don't be believe any lies, and just know the truth will prevail."

The singer last made headlines in 2012, when it was reported that rapper T.I. saved Stapp's life following a suicide attempt.

Stapp welcomed his third child in 2010, while he was still struggling with depression and addiction issues. It is not currently known if he is still in contact with his family.

Tori Spelling Confirms Dean McDermott Departure: Will True Tori <b>...</b>

Posted: 26 Nov 2014 10:18 AM PST

Will the show go on?

Despite Dean McDermott recently telling Dr. Oz that he's not quitting his family's ridiculously scripted reality series, Tori Spelling appeared today on The Meredith Vieira Show and confirmed the opposite.

Asked about the rumors that McDermott doesn't want to continue filming the series, Spelling told the host "that's true."

True Tori Fight Scene

So, does this mean True Tori will soon be coming to an end?

"I don't think so," Spelling replied. "For me, you know, it's True Tori. I have a lot more to tell. I have four children, I'm a mom, I'm a woman, and I want to go on and I really really really need the money."

McDermott has opened up in recent weeks about his depression, while the couple continues to struggle with his affair.

Talk of a Dean McDermott-Tori Spelling divorce has been circulating around the Internet for months, though Spelling continues to insist she's sticking with her man.

Even if he is an admitted cheater.

"I chose to deal with it because it was my journey, it was my truth," Spelling told Vieira of why she's made her private issues so very public. "Women everywhere go through this and I wanted to put it out there."

McDermott doesn't share this enthusiasm, however.

"I can't keep opening a vein, opening my soul and sharing my feelings and thoughts and demons with the world," he previously told Access Hollywood. "I don't watch it. I can't. It's really difficult. I can't do it anymore, for my soul."

Still, True Tori Season 3 Episode 7 will air on Tuesday and many will say McDermott's departure simply gives writers new material for Season 4.

Why do folks continue to turn in to this nonsense? Here is your chance to watch True Tori online and to find out for yourself:

Chris Soules Pregnancy Test Drama: Did New Bachelor Knock <b>...</b>

Posted: 26 Nov 2014 01:19 PM PST

Last week, ABC released a promo for The Bachelor that played up the show's unintentionally comedic aspects, while teasing a few The Bachelor spoilers.

Today, the network shared a teaser that focuses on the soap opera-caliber drama that's made the cutthroat romantic competition series such an addictive reality TV staple over the years.

The Bachelor Pregnancy Test Promo

it's an understatement to say there's a lot going on in this trailer:

We get our first extended look at Chris Soules as The Bachelor; we learn producers have brought in more wannabe-fiancees than ever before...But the real surprise comes at the very end:

As the show's signature, schlocky voice-over promises a season "pregnant with possibility," the camera closes in on a discarded home pregnancy test...

The results screen has been blurred out, so it's totally possible that one of the ladies simply experienced a false alarm, but the dramatic tease certainly has the Internet abuzz with speculation. 

The new promo has raised a number of questions about this upcoming season:

Would the show go on if one of the ladies got knocked up? Will the female fans who fell in love with Chris after he got dumped by Andi Dorfman feel the same way if he gets some rando pregnant?

Doesn't ABC stock that damn Fantasy Suite with condoms?!

Hopefully all these questions and more will be answered in the show's 19th (!) season.

In the meantime you can watch The Bachelor online to relive every sleazy moment the Fantasy Suite has to offer, and click through pics of the new star below:

Chris Soules is The Bachelor 2015. Here he is, leaving no doubts about it.

Last night was the Hollywood premiere of Mockingjay Part 1. I've not read any stories about Chris Martin being there, have you? Let me know. Because a couple of weeks ago the Daily Mail was saying that he was going to show up and be with Jennifer Lawrence at the after-party. Last week, when Lawrence was in London promoting the movie and Chris was seen flying to London, people were thinking that he was going there to hook up with her…only Lawrence flew to NYC immediately and Martin stayed in London for Live Aid 30.

So…again…no one knows anything.

Except that she wore Dior last night and I love this dress on her because it looks like an upside down wine glass.

Natalie Morales and Willie Geist: Fired from Today? - The <b>Hollywood</b> <b>...</b>

Posted: 19 Nov 2014 06:16 AM PST

Today Show Shake-Up Alert! Today Show Shake-Up Alert!

Maybe.

About a week after rumors first surfaced that Natalie Morales was feuding with Tamron Hall and was unhappy with her role on the NBC morning program, insiders tell Us Weekly that both Morales and Willie Geist have been fired from Today.

Morales is already in negotiations with ABC, the tabloid adds, while Geist has lined up a gig at CBS.

Natalie Morales and Willie Geist

HOWEVER, in a memo obtained by Us Weekly, NBC News' Deborah Turness writes that General Manager Jamie Horowitz was simply "not the right fit" and has also been let go from his job, which he only held for two months.

Horowitz was allegedly the executive in favor of removing Morales and Geist from their posts and, with him now gone (for certain), it remains unclear whether Today will go through with his proposed anchor change.

A source says there are other ideas "floating around" as well, including demoting Hall back to MSNBC and adding Good Morning America alum Josh Elliott as a newsreader on Today.

"An executive went rogue and got fired for suggesting crazy ideas no one agreed with," an insider says of Horowitz, explaining that Morales and Geist aren't going anywhere.

And a Today Show rep echoes this sentiment, saying via statement:

"We have a strong anchor team we want here for a long time."

Savannah Guthrie and Matt Lauer go makeup free on the Today Show February 24, 2014.

Lisa Rinna Freaked Out on Kim Richards Because of Harry Hamlin <b>...</b>

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 01:29 PM PST

If you watched The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Episode 1 this week, then you know that Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin joined the cast and immediately declared their place as the poshest, prettiest couple on a show full of posh, pretty people.

Hamlin on Housewives was something of a surprise, as it was originally rumored that he wouldn't be participating in the show, because...ya know, he has a real career and all.

But it looks like Harry's on board after all, and we already have reason to believe he'll be involved in some serious Housewives-style drama.

You may remember this Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 trailer. The Lisa RInna bug-out around the 1:30 mark stands out in particular:

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 5 Preview

Lisa can be heard to remark, "Don't you ever go after my husband!" before hurling a wineglass in the proud Housewives tradition. Now we might know what caused her to lose her cool:

Sources on set tell Radar Online that the fight began when Lisa Rinna accused Kim Richards of falling off the wagon during the ladies' trip to Amsterdam.

Kim shot back with some remark about how it's an open secret in Hollywood that Harry sleeps around.

Needless to say, Lisa was less than pleased. 

So between ax-alcoholics turning back to the bottle and accusations about philandering husbands, it sounds like we're in for quite the season.

Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online to catch every minute of the sauvignon blanc-slinging action.

Michael Keaton, Benedict Cumberbatch, Eddie <b>...</b> - Lainey <b>Gossip</b>

The race for Best Actor will be between Michael Keaton, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Eddie Redmayne this year. All three were at the Hollywood Film Awards. All three received awards at the Hollywood Film Awards. Jesus, is this show business or is this grade school?

As we've seen, Keaton had the early lead in this category since Venice. Redmayne came out hard after TIFF. But Cumberbatch is making his move. He's been closing in on both. And, as a source who was at the event on Friday told me, Cumberbatch is "in it to win it". He was seated at a table that included Harvey Weinstein and Les Moonves. He didn't drink, even though, as we've already clearly established, no one gives a sh-t about the Hollywood Film Awards, and he played every smile and gesture perfectly – for a politician.

The impression I was given about Eddie Redmayne's attitude, on the other hand, was that he wasn't so much campaigning as…grateful to be there? While Cumberbatch worked the room, under Harvey's supervision, my sources didn't see Eddie kissing too many babies and shaking too many hands. For him, you get the sense that the nomination really will be enough. It won't come with expectation.

So if it's between Cumberbatch and Michael Keaton, how is Keaton doing? Did you know that Michael Keaton and Jeff Bridges are basically the same age? I bring up Bridges because when Bridges won for Crazy Heart four years ago it was sold like he was the old guy in the race who deserved it over Clooney and Colin Firth and everyone else. Do you get the same impression of Michael Keaton? I wonder if that's where he might be vulnerable to Harvey Weinstein's strategy. Because I don't look at Michael Keaton and think "old guy". So if he can't campaign on his veteran card, what's going to be the angle? When you're up against Harvey, you have to have an angle.

Raven-Symone Slams Bill Cosby Sexual Assault Rumor: FALSE <b>...</b>

Posted: 19 Nov 2014 04:27 PM PST

With more and more women coming out over the past few days and accusing legendary comedian Bill Cosby of rape, Raven-Symone would like to go on record:

She is NOT one of them.

Raven-Symone Image

The 28-year old actress, forever known as Olivia from The Cosby Show to fans of that classic sitcom, found herself entangled in the Cosby scandal today, with chatter around the Internet alleging Bill Cosby sexually assaulted her.

To that rumor, Symone had the following to say via Facebook:

"I was NOT taking advantage of by Mr. Cosby when I was on the Cosby Show! I was practically a baby on that show and this is truly a disgusting rumor that I want no part of! Everyone on that show treated me with nothing but kindness. Now keep me out of this!"

A few weeks ago, comedian Hannibal Buress quipped in a stand-up routine about the fact that Cosby has been accused of rape by at least 13 women over the years.

Most of these alleged incidents took place over four decades ago.

Since then, supposed victims such as Joan Tarshis have come forward, sharing horrifying stories about how Cosby drugged them and forced them to perform various sexual acts.

Even supermodel Janice Dickinson claims Cosby sexually assaulted her.

Cosby's attorney has denied all allegations, though the star himself has remained quiet. In response, Netflix has postponed a planned comedy special with Cosby and NBC has pulled the plug on a new sitcom featuring the actor.

This evening, meanwhile, TV Land yanked all reruns of The Cosby Show off the air.

Taylor Lianne Chandler: Michael Phelps - The <b>Hollywood Gossip</b>

Posted: 19 Nov 2014 02:27 PM PST

Shortly after Michael Phelps was arrested for DUI back in September, it was revealed that he had been spending time with a new girlfriend just before his brush with the law.

Taylor Lianne Chandler was with Phelps the night of his arrest, and is rumored to have dated the Olympian for several months:

The relationship became a subject of tabloid interest due to the couple's age difference (Phelps is 29, Chandler is 41).

Now, however, it seems there's an even more unexpected element to the May-December romance. In a recent interview with Radar Online, Chandler reveals she never told Phelps that she was born as a man named David Roy Fitch:

"I was born with male genitalia with no testicles, but I also have a uterus and no ovaries," Chandler explains. 

Chandler adds that she began presenting as female while still in her teens, and later had surgery to become a woman.

In the interview, Chandler also details how her passionate affair with Phelps began.

Taylor says they met on Tinder back in August, and Phelps later invited her over to watch a Baltimore Ravens game.

"One thing led to another, and we made love during halftime. Later we had sex again. The intimacy was amazing! It was the first time in my life someone has made me feel like a true woman."

While Phelps is expected to complete rehab this week, Taylor says she's unsure if their relationship will continue, as she believes Phelps might feel that dating a transgender woman could be damaging to his career.

Taylor Lianne Chandler is Michael Phelps' alleged cougar girlfriend. This was sent to THG directly from a source claiming it's from her. Decide for yourself in this gallery!

Beyonce Thigh Gap Photo: Just UNREAL ... But Only Figuratively <b>...</b>

Posted: 10 Nov 2014 07:58 AM PST

Beyonce's thigh gap, for what it's worth, looks to be the real deal in this latest controversial photo posted to the music goddess' vaunted Tumblr account.

Beyonce Thigh Gap

The 33-year-old crammed her hot body into a tight one-piece top that looks to be several sizes too small and emblazoned with some of her husband's famous lyrics.

She's got 99 problems, but we guess Beyonce thigh gap photoshop ain't one.

In the photo, posted for all to see, she proves that she's either really, really skilled and just as dedicated to airbrushing her photos on social media, or ... WOW.

Bey's been put on blast in the past for retouching her own pics, and in some cases they have seemed a little peculiar. This one looks like the real deal, though.

Real and insane. Khloe Kardashian would be proud of that camel toe ...

The star of E!'s Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons has spoken openly about her vagina and how her lady parts often resemble the toes of camels.

Bey will see you that and raise you some intense thigh gap, Khloe.

If you're wondering why the gap between Beyonce's thighs has become such a hot topic online, we don't have a lot of insight. Welcome to the Internet.

Perhaps because she tries to control her image so carefully via her Tumblr, fans analyze every last pixel in hopes of finding ... who knows what. But they do it.

We don't know what to tell you as far as Beyonce Tumblr photos being doctored or not. We just bow down to the Queen and let you draw your own conclusions.

Here are some less controversial, but equally noteworthy shots:

Andy Dick Arrested for Grand Theft: Did He Really Steal a Necklace <b>...</b>

Posted: 09 Nov 2014 07:53 AM PST

Andy Dick has pulled, well, a dick move. Allegedly, that is.

According to TMZ, the trouble actor was riding his bike on Hollywood Boulevard last week when he spotted a man wearing an expensive necklace.

The former Newsradio star supposedly asked the victim if he could see it and the man, recognizing Dick, responded in the affirmative.

Authorities say Dick then simply rode away with the item, which was later valued at $1,000.

Andy Dick Snapshot

The man reported the crime and police arrested Dick when they found him on his bike near his home Friday night.

The copes arrested Dick for grand theft and and he sat in jail until posting $25,000 bond Saturday morning.

In addition to NewsRadio, Dick briefly had his own program on MTV and enjoyed roles in several movies. He also was a contestant on Dancing with the Stars last year.

In January 2012, Dick was accused of battery against a tourist in Hollywood, while he also went on an Anti-Semitic rant in August 2011 and was arrested that same year for disorderly conduct.

The guy clearly has some problems, regardless of his guilt in this latest incident. Let's hope he seeks professional help.

Tyga: Arrested in Los Angeles! Is It Because of Kylie Jenner?! - The <b>...</b>

Posted: 10 Nov 2014 05:22 PM PST

Tyga was arrested today in South Central Los Angeles. The cause of the arrest is currently unknown.

Perhaps best known for his relationship with Kylie Jenner, Tyga was driving a Rolls Royce while filming a music video. He was pulled over and handcuffed. More officers quickly arrived on the scene.

There's currently now word on what prompted police to take Tyga into custody, but judging from the number of officers on hand, we're guessing it wasn't a traffic violation.

There are bound to be rumors that the arrest has something to do with the fact that Tyga is dating Kylie Jenner.

Earlier today it was reported that Kim Kardashian wants Kylie to dump Tyga and does not approve of the relationship.

Tyga Arrest Video

So clearly Kim is feeling protective, but would she go so far as to have Tyga arrested?

Of course, Tyga's got a lot of other enemies as well. Just last week, his baby mama Blac Chyna accused Tyga of hacking into her Twitter account to post disparaging comments about her.

Clearly that breakup wasn't as amicable as originally reported, and it's been said that Chyna also doesn't approve of Tyga dating Kylie.

Kylie, of course, is only 17, whereas Tyga will turn 25 next week.

We'll keep you updated on this story as more details become available.

Tyga and Blac Chyna pose in a sweet Instagram moment. Things are not always so cozy for them.

Macaulay Culkin Responds to Death Rumor with Weekend at <b>...</b>

Posted: 09 Nov 2014 07:21 AM PST

And the winner of the Internet this weekend is...

MACAULAY CULKIN!!!

The child star became the latest celebrity to have his death prematurely reported on the Internet yesterday, with chatter going around that Culkin was found dead in his Manhattan apartment.

Fortunately, Culkin is alive and very well and responded to the hoax in a seriously hilarious manner: by going all Weekend at Bernie's on us!

Macaulay Culkin as Bernie

Via the official Twitter account of his rock back (The Pizza Underground), Culkin is seen above making like the title character in the aforementioned comedy, which centers on a couple of friends pretending all weekend as if they're friend Bernie is actually alive.

"Weekend at bernies with @anchovywarhol #greenroom," the band's handle captioned the picture of Culkin, jokingly playing dead in the arms of his bandmate.

Incredibly, yesterday marked the second time this year that Culkin was rumored to have passed away.

A couple years ago, meanwhile, The National Enquirer claimed Culkin was spending $6,000 per month on a heroin addiction. This allegation surfaced around the same time as photos of a very thin Culkin also appeared on the World Wide Web.

It's unclear why folks like to spread lies about Culkin, though perhaps some are jealous that he's seen Mila Kunis nude.

The two stars dated for many years prior to Kunis procreating with Ashton Kutcher.

Here's a look, meanwhile, at the impressive company Culkin now keeps as someone famous once falsely presumed to be dead:

Jennifer Lawrence Reveals What She Wants in a Man (Hint: Stay Off <b>...</b>

Posted: 10 Nov 2014 01:46 PM PST

Jennifer Lawrence is a woman who knows what she wants in life, and in love. On the latter front, it's not really shocking what the star says she looks for.

In the new issue of French magazine Madame Figaro, the 24-year-old reveals that the ideal mate for her is "one who allows her to be herself in all situations."

"Otherwise, you might as well stay single."

Jen Lawrence Pic

Lawrence, who might be back together with Chris Martin, is currently overseas as part of a massive PR tour for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.

That's just part of her job as an A-list star, and the accompanying interest in her personal life is something she says she has been very reluctant to accept.

Admitting it took days to agree to portray Katniss Everdeen, she says, "I realized that whatever I do, at any level, I would lose a part of my private life."

"For each 'everyday' photo published," the paparazzi-averse Oscar-winner says, "I generally spent three hours playing cat and mouse with photographers."

"I always had a very clear idea of the type of course I wanted - acting, that's all. Of course, by contract, I must assure a media presence to promote my work.

"But if I had a choice," says the talented and versatile but world-weary actress, "you wouldn't hear me express myself except in movies."

Wow. That's the only word that's really necessary when gazing upon this Jennifer Lawrence photo.

So what about Twitter, Facebook and other social media?

"All that doesn't interest me for a second!" she says.

"I'm always hundreds of emails behind."

Given the fact that numerous Jennifer Lawrence nude photos were among the flagship leaks disseminated by The Fappening, her attitude is not surprising.

This has been true of her throughout, however.

For a woman of her stature, she keeps a surprisingly low profile aside from movie press and has done so long before she was as famous as she is now.

So much so that you probably never knew she was a model for Abercrombie & Fitch back in the day (as were some other famous faces in the gallery below)!
