Who would have thought that the man who would not even include his wife’s head in their pregnancy announcement photo would be sort of a douche during her pregnancy? I’m often asked why I dislike Justin Timberlake so much. First off, he’s not really on my “I totally hate this guy” list, like Chris Brown. JT is mostly an annoyance to me, and I’m more pissed off at the coverage around him. Justin gets away with too much by the press and his fans. He’s acted like a dick so many times, he openly cheated on Jessica Biel when they dated (and probably now that they’re married too) and everything is always all about Justin. So, what’s new? JT and Jessica weren’t speaking to each other during their babymoon.
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel were skiing in Montana on Jan. 24 – but it looked like their marriage was heading downhill just as fast! The superstar couple acted more like strangers while dining in Big Sky Country, a witness revealed to The National ENQUIRER.
“There seemed to be some tension between them,” the Montana spy reported. “They were not talking at all – Justin was on his phone the entire time, looking down.”
Jessica, 32, is six months pregnant with her first child with Justin, 34, but they weren’t acting like expectant parents. Could the pair’s current cold condition be related to a hot summer night in Paris? The ENQUIRER published photos showing Justin canoodling with one of his female backup singers at Paris’ VIP Room on Aug. 21.
“In Montana, things seemed to be chillier than the weather between Justin and Jessica!” added the source.

You might wonder why I believe this. It’s because this is what “spies” always say about Justin and Jessica – that they barely have anything to do with each other, that they have no chemistry, no spark, nothing. That he’s the kind of guy who will go on his wife’s babymoon and spend the entire vacation checking his messages. Justin’s probably going to be jealous of the baby for stealing his thunder too.

Here are some photos of Taylor Swift out and about in Hollywood on Tuesday and Wednesday. She had two costume changes for the paps, and both costumes involved legs for days. If I had Tay-Tay’s legs, I would be showing them off too. But I worry about her miniskirts. That brown suede mini is WAY too short. I’m assuming she has, like, bloomers or hot pants on underneath, because how could she not? How can you wear a skirt that short and not be constantly worried that your butt is literally hanging out?
So, what’s up with Swifty this week? Lots. This week she became the second woman in history to have TWO albums on the top of the Billboard charts for ten weeks. The first was Whitney Houston. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you feel about Swifty’s live performances), Swifty will not be performing any of her hit songs at the Grammys on Sunday. She wrote on her Tumblr this week:
Hey guys! A lot of you have been asking about the Grammys this week and I just wanted to give you an update. I’m really excited to be nominated for 3 Grammys this year and even more excited that I’ll be there having a dance party/rage fest in the audience. I will also be presenting the award for Best New Artist. Since my whole life is wrapped up and entangled in the planning of The 1989 World Tour right now, I’m not going to be performing on the Grammys this year. I need this time to focus only on the tour.
I hope I’ll see you out there at one of the stadiums this summer having a rage fest of your own!
Love you.
Taylor

I don’t think there’s any conspiracy with this. I believe her – she’s prepping her tour and Swifty’s tours are very important to her (and that’s how she makes most of her money too), so she didn’t have the time or energy to put together a Grammys performance. But she’ll be there, dancing in the audience.
Last story: you know how Taylor applied to trademark “This Sick Beat”? Yeah. Well, people are freaking out about it and one punk musician named Ben Norton wrote a protest song using phrases from Swifty’s album, like “This sick beat,” “party like it’s 1989” and “cause we never go out of style.” You can hear his song here. The New Yorker also ran a hilarious parody of other phrases Swifty could try to trademark, like: “Welcome to Newark”; “I Am an American Citizen”; “My Name is Hillary Clinton, and I Approve This Message”; “How Did You Get This Number?”; “Taylor Gyllenhaal”. YES!!!

Amber Rose has been everywhere lately. Her Instagram page tells a scandalous tale of constant champagne parties and twerking in bikinis. Much of this image could be by design, or maybe Amber’s turned into a huge party animal since her divorce from Wiz Khalifa. She could have been a party animal all along, but their marriage was always framed around pot-smoking jokes involving Wiz. Their union only lasted a year, but the after effects will last much longer.
I had a feeling things would get ugly. Wiz already shaded Amber when she filed divorce papers. He was all happy to be free and not have to worry about his wife interrupting his “twin” parties. Several months later, Wiz is popping off on Twitter again. This time, he’s upset about something involving their 1-year-old son, Sebastian:
(1) a woman who would do something to a kid to spite that kids father is a foul creature.
(2) Seen my boy. All is well.
(3) That’s pretty much the only thing that can spin my universe out of control.
(4) as long as he’s playing and smiling i’m cool. can’t be pissed when i see that handsome face.
(5) i tell him everyday that this is all his.
[From Wiz Khalifa on Twitter]
We don’t know what happened to set Wiz off. He could be acting like a drama king, or perhaps Amber wouldn’t let Wiz see their son. Maybe he was obliterated and shouldn’t have been around Sebastian. Or Amber could be acting like a pill to spite Wiz. When they divorced, Amber made a big deal of her life revolving around Sebastian. But her public image presents a woman on the party scene. Honestly, Amber and Wiz both seem like messes. I hope Sebastian has some positive role models somewhere.
Here’s a photo of Amber hiding her face as she left a nail salon on Monday.

LaineyGossip has a good theory for why Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are playing this stupid game with not announcing what they’ve named their baby girl. Just for the record, if you don’t want to announce your baby’s name, that’s fine. But don’t make it into a guessing game like you’re so clever. It’s pretty annoying. Anyway, Lainey’s theory is that Ryan is promoting The Voices and it’s not a big enough film to spill the tea on the baby name, and that they might wait until Blake is promoting The Age of Adaline in April to announce the name. Sounds possible. I bet Blake announces it on Preserve before then though.
Anyway, Ryan was on The Late Show last night (you can see the full interview here) and David Letterman grilled him on the baby name. Like, they spent the bulk of the interview talking about the name and playing this silly game. Once again, Ryan said they didn’t name the baby Violet: “People said that the name was Violet, which was a very pretty name. But, that’s Ben Affleck’s daughter’s name … we would never steal another celebrity’s baby name, so we went with Shiloh.” Ryan also dropped some hints: it’s a family name, it’s not Blake’s mother’s name and it’s “maybe kind of, yeah” a Biblical name. Bathsheba Reynolds. DONE. He also said this about Blake:
“It’s amazing. I’m not one for vomiting declarations of sentiment out across the airwaves, but when we had that baby, I fell more in love with my wife than I’d ever been in my entire life. I couldn’t even believe it. I used to say to [Blake], ‘I would take a bullet for you. I could never love anything as much as I love you.’ I would say that to my wife. And the second I looked in that baby’s eyes, I knew in that exact moment that if we were ever under attack, I would use my wife as a human shield to protect that baby. [As] the guy, I’m just like a diaper-changing facility hooked up to a life-support system. But my wife, she’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She’s a human Denny’s, all day long and all night long. Romantic right? She’s the most beautiful Denny’s you’ve ever seen, though.”
[From Us Weekly]
I’ll admit it, I liked what Blandy Reynolds had to say about Blake. I mean, of course he loves his wife. But it’s nice to hear him gush about her like this because we’ve never really heard that from him before. Oh well… I hope they’re a real love match. And I hope we find out this godforsaken baby’s name soon.

Here are some photos of LeAnn Rimes out and about in LA a few days ago. We had these photos yesterday and I was going to write up something, but LeAnn has been pretty bland lately. I already mentioned – in the Brandi Glanville post yesterday – that LeAnn is still Twitter-stalking Brandi and Single-White-Female-ing her. When Brandi tweeted something about #Cookingforfamily, LeAnn had to copy her within a few hours. The whole thing, after all these years, is both funny and pathetic.
Anyway, while Brandi Glanville was in NYC this week to promote Celebrity Apprentice and RHOBH, I guess LeAnn and Eddie had his two boys. I was able to discern that from LeAnn’s Twitter, where she bragged about donating all of her food for Jake’s school project. #selfless #blessed #HowWillTheyKnowImSelflessIfIDontGetCreditForIt
I’ll be shopping for canned soups & beans to replace the ones we just unloaded for Jake’s school project He’s loaded down #feedingfamilies
— LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (@leannrimes) February 4, 2015
And of course, a pleasant reminder that she owns all of Eddie’s experiences with his sons. They are hers and hers alone!
I love watching my husband engage in every aspect of his son’s lives He’s the greatest dad Cheers to all you dads who give their whole heart
— LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (@leannrimes) February 5, 2015
Sigh… I mean, I guess the sentiment is nice enough, but knowing that LeAnn is a crazy Single White Female does give her tweets the patina of “they’re mine, they’re all mine, are you listening, Brandi?”
As for LeAnn’s ex-husband Dean, he told Us Weekly that he’s not writing a tell-all memoir about their failed married. He is going to write a book – a cookbook! He told Us Weekly: “I’m working on a book that is an inspirational cookbook about how I regained myself by disappearing from the Hollywood craziness and establishing my own roots through hard work and a lifelong passion for healthy eating.” The recipes will be interspersed between “anecdotal personal stories.” So there is a memoir-ish element to it. “This is the cake I made for LeAnn after she told me she was sleeping with Eddie…”

New Miley Cyrus interview with The Kit. She’s promoting MAC’s 2015 Viva Glam campaign. Turns out she was the one who approached MAC to create her own lipstick and gloss to raise money for AIDS awareness and support those living with the disease.
During a Wednesday appearance on Late Show with David Letterman, new dad Ryan Reynolds talked family life with wife Blake Lively and their newborn daughter.
In an attempt to discover his baby’s name (which we know is not Violet), Letterman went through a series of different monikers, including Madison, Isabella and Sophia.
“I should’ve worn my cup!” Reynolds joked. “I didn’t know I was going to busted this hard.”
After confirming that it is a family name, Reynolds went on to say, “It’s not Elaine,” which is his MIL’s name.
All joking aside, The Voices actor, 38, went on to gush about his happy family life.
“It’s amazing,” he shared. “When we had that baby I fell more in love with my wife than I had ever been in my entire life.”
But the actor quickly returned to his usual humor.
“I would use my wife as a human shield to protect that baby,” he joked. “You can quote me.”
As for caring for a newborn, he’s been on diaper duty while his wife acts as “breakfast, lunch and dinner.”
“She’s a human Denny’s all day long and all night long,” he joked. “But the most beautiful Denny’s you’ve ever seen.”
Jay-Z is to New York like… Oprah is to Chicago. You know? Some people are synonymous with their cities. Jay could travel the world, he could live for years in the middle of nowhere and he would still be a New Yorker, he would still rap about Brooklyn and New York would still be in his blood. I always thought he was probably pretty happy calling Manhattan his homebase, but as it turns out, Jay-Z and Beyonce have already relocated to the West Coast. For months now, TMZ has been tracking Bey and Jay’s attempts to purchase major real estate in LA, and now TMZ says that they’re already living out of a hotel in LA and have been for a month or so. And they already enrolled Blue Ivy in pre-school!
Beyonce and Jay Z are moving to L.A. and they’ve already enrolled Blue Ivy in school … TMZ has learned. We’ve learned … Beyonce and Jay Z are currently living in a hotel in Beverly Hills and actively looking for an estate to buy on the westside of L.A., which includes Beverly Hills, Holmby Hills and Bel-Air. We’re told they have already discreetly looked at a number of homes, but so far none fit the bill.
We’ve also learned the famous couple enrolled their 3-year-old into a toddler program at an elite private school — we know which one but we’re not naming it. But we will tell you, the tuition is $15,080 a year. We’re told Blue Ivy was admitted halfway through the school year, which is unusual. The school generally only accepts students at the beginning of the school year.
As for why they’re moving, sources connected with the couple tell us they want “a change in lifestyle.” You’ll re recall, Bey and Jay spent the summer in a $200K a month rental near Bev Hills. We do not know but assume they will keep their New York digs.
[From TMZ]
This is just… weird. Right? I mean, Beyonce and Jay-Z are the Queen and King of New York. Blue Ivy is a New York baby! Is this all part of the sketchiness that went down between Bey and Jay last year? Is this part of the deal? Like, we’ll stay together and try for another baby but only if we move to a city so I don’t have to keep running into all of your New York side-pieces?
According to Us Weekly, it wasn’t about the side-pieces though. Their sources say Gwyneth Paltrow “heavily influenced” the move. A source says:
“Beyonce and Jay Z are making L.A. their permanent home based a lot on the advice of their friends. The friend that really influenced them to move was Gwyneth Paltrow. Gwyneth was telling Jay and Bey about the quality of life for her kids in L.A. and really swayed Beyonce and Jay to make the move. It’s all for Blue Ivy.”
[From Us Weekly]
The source also says that Bey and Jay will keep their New York property (properties, I believe) but LA will become their homebase. I can sort of understand moving to LA for a change of pace, and being able to move around with more freedom. What I don’t understand is moving to LA because Goop suggested it. I know Gwyneth likes to name-drop her friendship with Beyonce, but I really doubt that they’re close enough for Beyonce to uproot her family to be closer to Goop, you know?
