I don’t know if this story is fanfiction or not, but it sure seems fitting if Tyga really went and tattooed Kylie Jenner’s name on his arm. No word if he went through with that stunt or not. We know that Kylie was pretending not to care about Blac Chyna’s screencaps of alleged texts between herself and Tyga. Kylie said the texts were faked, which is possible. But I think Kylie is in denial, and she’s dating a 25-year-old dude who thinks he can pull one over on a 17-year-old girl. Kylie is allegedly upset with Tyga not letting her look through his phone, which sounds like trouble on both ends. If a guy won’t let you see his phone, he’s probably hiding something. But if a girl insists on seeing a guy’s phone, she’s pretty much decided that he’s hiding something whether it’s true or not. According to Hollywood Life, Kylie has reportedly put her relationship with Tyga on hold because she’s tired of the lies:

Oh no! Kylie Jenner and Tyga are ‘taking a break’ after a heated argument over the nature of his relationship with ex, Blac Chyna! The 17-year-old reality star decided she had enough of the drama, after the rappers’ baby mama claimed that Tyga wanted her back.

So much for young love. Kylie Jenner, 17, and Tyga, 25, have split up after a series of suggestive text messages were released by his ex, Blac Chyna, 26! Not only that, but his baby mama says the rapper has been sending her romantic text messages begging for a reconciliation for months! Now a family source tells HollywoodLife.com that Kylie has taken matters into her own hands telling him she needs some space. But will it last?

Ever since Blac posted a text conversation between herself and Tyga in which he tells her he wants to “be a family again” on April 23, there has been trouble in his relationship with Kylie. It got even worse when Blac claimed he has been trying to hook up with her for at least 7 months.

But things got really heated during a Skype conversation after Kylie watched her dad’s interview on April 24. The youngest Jenner, who had been concerned Tyga had been “lying” to her about his relationship with his baby mama, demanded he show her his texts between him and Chyna.

Tyga refused to show Kylie his phone, so she decided that it was best that they take some time to reevaluate their relationship. “They’re on a break!” says the insider. “Kylie put him on punishment. She’s had a rough couple of weeks and has had to grow up really fast! And after seeing her dad’s courageous interview and being with her family, she’s not in the mood for all this drama!”

Hopefully these two kids can work it out. Being young and in love can be difficult especially in the public eye.

“Hopefully these two kids can work it out“? Noooo. There’s only one child (Kylie) in this relationship. Between this story and People’s “adorable” comment, I wonder if the media cares about the statutory rape issue at all. Hollywood Life goes on to say that Kylie is pleased about Tyga’s tattoo. She just thinks it’s in the wrong location: “She would have liked it much, much more if it were drawn over his heart.” That detail is so schmaltzy and full of teenage drama that it just might be true. But if Tyga’s new tattoo was over his heart, then we’d never see it! Kris Jenner would be so sad without rampant media speculation over one of her children.

Another story in OK! (via Hollywood Life) sounds fake, but it’s funny because it makes fun of Kanye West’s fashion “designer” abilities. Kylie was reportedly very upset about the fug outfit she wore on the NYFW runway. Kendall tried to convince Kylie that the outfit was “art,” and Kylie allegedly blew up at Kendall: “She went on sniping that Kendall was only there to mess with her head and she accused her of being jealous and trying to keep Kylie out of modeling.” The story also says Kendall thinks Kylie’s lips look cartoonish and ridiculous. Well, they do.

Star Magazine says Carey Mulligan is preggo. Well, a lot of you predicted this. I threw it out there as a possibility last week, although at the end of the day, I just thought Carey Mulligan loved baggy, sacky dresses. But some of you insisted that Carey was trying to hide a small baby bump, and now Star Magazine says you guys were right.

The “I Will Wait” song is sounding on cue for Mumford & Sons singer Marcus Mumford, 28, and wife Carey Mulligan, 29. A source tells Star the couple is expecting a new bundle of joy.

“Carey and Marcus are thrilled to welcome their first child,” an insider tells Star.

But they aren’t planning on sharing the news for several more weeks.

“The thing with these two is that they are extremely private people,” the insider explains. Plus, they’re waiting until her pregnancy starts to show, the source adds.

The Mumford couple had been trying for a baby, but the good news still “took them by surprise,” the source told Star.

If it’s true – and I kind of think it is – then congrats to them. I don’t see Carey as one of those annoying “let me pontificate about how motherhood is the only important thing” moms. She won’t be doing pap strolls with the bump or the baby. Although it will get interesting later this year when she’s promoting Suffragette, a film that many believe will be a potential Oscar contender. Will she shill her bump a little bit for an Oscar? We’ll see.

You know what this reminded me of? We have barely heard anything about or from Keira Knightley. She must be due any day now too (like Sophie Hunter). Keira and Carey are good friends. They’re not, like, pregnancy twinsies or anything, but I would imagine that Carey and Keira’s babies will grow up together.

This was the terrible Dior dress that launched a thousand baby-bump rumors:

Here’s a deceptively contrite looking Justin Bieber on the cover of HERO magazine. He couldn’t look more intentionally angelic unless he was wearing an actual halo. Swaggy’s still on his ridiculous redemption tour, where he keeps issuing empty apologies and wondering whether he’s human or not. For several months, Swaggy has been attempting to charm his way back into his fans’ hearts. The problem is that Bieber’s fanbase is rapidly aging. He’s still bringing in cash, but he’s not winning any new fans. Eventually, his demographic will forget he ever existed except as a menace. Bieber’s also working against himself by doing dumb stuff like crashing a prom. Not only that, but he muscled his way into the dance (which endangered the students who were present) just for kicks.

Swaggy doesn’t get it. He feels that continuing to remind us of his apologies will eventually cause us to believe. Some HERO excerpts:

He wants to be taken seriously: “I hope people felt the sincerity in my apologies. There are a lot of things that have happened in the last couple years that I’m not very proud of, and I feel a responsibility to my fans and to the public who believe in me to make it right. I hope everyone believed it–because it was honest.”

It’s hard to be Bieber: “It’s definitely hard having so many people judge you from a distance. Sometimes you just want to explain yourself, but then that’s giving into gossip and it makes things worse. It’s a tough line to walk.”

His new album will be amazing: “The biggest difference is that I’m older. I was 17 when I recorded most of my last album and I’m 21 now. I’ve been through a lot in a public way, which gives me a much different perspective on things. I am working with producers like Kanye [West] and Rick Rubin who have influenced me and the music I listen to in a big way. The creative process this time around is more personal. When I was younger I would take other people’s experiences, now I have my own to draw from and it makes all the difference because it’s a release. It’s amazing because I’m able to really work out anything I am feeling in my music. I’m nervous whenever I put out new work because it’s such a personal journey, but I try to remember music is meant to be enjoyed–so I try to roll with it.”

[From Hero magazine]

I find it amusing that Swaggy went four years without recording a new album. Such a practice can be the kiss of death for a pop-star career. If the whole music thing doesn’t work out, maybe Bieber can get into acting. He is currently in Rome to film a Zoolander 2 cameo. But he’s run into a problem. TMZ reports that police have surrounded his hotel. He has an outstanding warrant in Argentina (for a 2013 assault claim), which has an extradition treaty with Italy. So he could be deported to Argentina if his legal team can’t prove that a grace period applies. Wouldn’t that be something if Bieber ended up in jail, finally?

Don’t cry for Swaggy, Argentina.

Blake Lively is still talking. She’s still promoting The Age of Adaline, which is already out in theaters. It’s made more than $15 million so far domestically. Which is not Marvel money, but it’s somewhat respectable for Blake in her first film role in years. The press around Blake would make you believe that she’s this major movie star, up for all of the big roles, battling it out with Angelina Jolie, Cate Blanchett and Scarlett Johansson for the juicy parts. The reality is… she’s an ambitious TV Girl with a great publicist. Which goes pretty far, but not Jolie/ScarJo territory. Anyway, Blake has a new interview with Stylist – you can read the full piece here. I’ve carved out some highlights of just a some stuff I found interesting. Like, I couldn’t care less about Blake’s thoughts on e-commerce, even though she’s now an “expert” because of Preserve. My highlights:

Motherhood surprises: “Just realising that it is all going to be OK. I remember leaving the hospital thinking: ‘I have no idea what I am doing. I have a life in my hands and I’m not equipped to do this, because I don’t have the knowledge I need to take care of the most precious, fragile thing in the world.’ It felt like being a passenger on a plane and being told: “By the way, now you are going to be piloting the plane.” But then you take her home and you figure it out. Sometimes you don’t figure it out and even that is a whole new experience.

She’s making people wait: “It is tough because when you are looking at your child and she’s laughing, it’s hard to do anything else. And it means making people wait while you feed your baby. That sucks, because everyone thinks you are just being a diva. My parents are pretty much the nannies…They haven’t moved in, but they visit for long periods of time and then they’ll go away and make us beg them to come back.

Looking forward to aging: “Right now I am really looking forward to getting older. The older I’ve got, the more enriched my life has become, from a great childhood with my family, to moving to New York, getting married and having a baby. But ask me in 10 years when I get my crow’s feet… or maybe two years, oh my god! I have learned that until you experience something, it’s hard to get on your soapbox and talk about it.

Whether she’s ‘old-fashioned’: “Yes I am. I only listen to old music. I love Billie Holiday, Chet Baker, Edith Piaf and Josephine Baker. I love fashion of times past, I like modern trends too, but I’m not good about keeping up with them.”

The idea of being a stay-at-home-mom: “It is great to be a mother and a professional and a wife and a daughter, but to choose only one of those things is also incredible. I love being with my niece and baking with her; I also love it when my niece wants to get out there and take the boys down. We’ll take them down together in a game of soccer or go-kart racing. I like being a woman and everything that means for me.”

The changing landscape for women: “Look at what is happening with Hillary Clinton, it’s something to be very proud of. It’s so uplifting. But the fact that we have to be proud of this advancement is a bit upsetting. I think whatever side you stand on, the fact that there’s never been a woman leading this country where there are women leading households and leading companies, is a bit upsetting. What makes people think a man is more equipped to do that than a woman? Nothing.

Her dream: “I have a dream to go to Harvard Business School and one of these days I will do that… in my spare time!”

[From Stylist]

Harvard Business School? Eh, weirder things have happened. What I find funny is that before Blake launched Preserve, she teased it in many, many interviews and promised that it would be unlike anything we had ever seen, that it would be utterly unique and special. And then when she launched her site, it was just a run-of-the-mill shopping site for twee-precious-hipster stuff, interspersed with poorly written mini-essays about how quaint it was when people could still own slaves. And all of the press around Blake this month, as she promotes her film, has basically said that Preserve is just a budget version of Goop. Every single interview name-checks Goop!! It’s amazing. So yeah, maybe she needs some additional education. Or something.

Part of me hates the gleeful way a Rupert Murdoch-owned media outlet has been reporting the on-going Brian Williams debacle. I mean, Page Six would never, ever go after one of the Fox News anchors this way, would they? Of course not, because they have the same corporate ownership. Another part of me thinks it’s completely justified though, especially since NBC News is trying to leave Brian Williams twisting in the wind. Over the weekend, several major media outlets (including WaPo and the NYT) got strategic leaks about the in-house investigation into Williams’ many, many lies. The investigation has found the Williams lied about several major events just in the past few years. I said a few days ago that of course NBC is going to fire Williams or buy out his contract or whatever. He just won’t be coming back. But now Page Six’s sources say Williams is not going to go without a fight.

This time, Brian Williams may not be exaggerating. Talks between the exiled anchor and NBCUniversal have recently become tense — with the 55-year-old newsman saying he will not have his “NBC Nightly News” job taken away without a battle, The Post has learned.

“Brian is saying he’s not going down without a fight and [is] threatening to make it really ugly — worse than Ann Curry,” a source close to NBC told The Post. In 2013, Curry departed NBC’s “Today” in a downpour of negative publicity. She made a teary emotional on-air goodbye as co-host Matt Lauer looked on awkwardly. Curry and Williams are both represented by a pit bull lawyer — Bob Barnett at Williams & Connolly.

“They want Brian to resign,” said one source. “If they have to fire him, they can’t control him.”

The tense state of the Williams-NBCUniversal relationship has become clear of late. On April 24, the newest findings from NBC’s internal probe — which turned up 11 instances of Williams stretching the truth — were leaked. Three days later, a pro-Williams report surfaced saying NBC News boss Andy Lack was looking for ways to save his beleaguered anchor. On Tuesday, the anti-Williams faction seemed to fight back — telling the Hollywood Reporter that Lack is not convinced Williams can return. And so it goes.

Without a doubt, there is an increasing urgency within NBCUniversal management ranks to bring the prickly situation to an end. “ABC World News Tonight,” hosted by David Muir, said Tuesday that for the last four weeks it led “NBC Nightly News” in total viewers — the first time that has happened in years. ABC also won for the third straight week in the key 25- to 54-year-old demographic sought by advertisers — though NBC is ahead season-to-date.

As talks between Williams and Comcast’s NBCUniversal unit heat up, Williams is believed to be trying to ensure that he is entitled to a payout under the five-year $10-million-per-year deal he signed last year.

“They are not going to give him an opportunity to do an Ann Curry,” said a source familiar with news management.

“NBC seems intent on damaging him,” said a friend of Williams. “No one is speaking out in his defense.”

Meanwhile, NBC News has said no decisions have been made about Williams’ future and several staff tell The Post they are conflicted about their colleague, saying that he deserves punishment but also that he is a talented, popular professional. NBC star Lauer has had several dinners with Williams to discuss the situation and is supportive of his friend, a source told The Post.

I’ll admit it – I love these kinds of insidery media stories where you realize that broadcast journalists are just the same as any other grasping, brand-protecting celebrity. And all this report made me feel was another wave of sympathy for Ann Curry. Yes, Curry was a terrible co-anchor at Today, but she got shafted in such a major way by NBC News and her transgressions were nothing compared to Brian Williams. BW needs to go, but NBC is going to have to pay him a lot to make him go away. But here’s what bugs me: unlike the Ann Curry situation, NBC can FIRE Williams FOR CAUSE. What he did was awful and he shouldn’t get some payday from all his ass-covering bros.

It’s an ugly custody battle between Rosie O’Donnell and her estranged wife Michelle Rounds.

According to Rounds, she wants the couple’s 2-year-old daughter Dakota to have “a normal life.”

“Right now she has 24/7 nannies over there at Rosie’s house,” Rounds told Entertainment Tonight. “I don’t want my child to have a nanny. I want her to be outside playing, I want to be with her. I want to go to all the parent conferences … and that’s just not what it’s about over there.”

Earlier this week, O’Donnell’s rep told PEOPLE that Rounds seeking sole custody is “an absurd and desperate attempt to use a child for her own gain.”

But Rounds insists that she’s the fit parent.

“I’m at my daughter’s every beck and call,” Rounds said. “I give her mild discipline instead of like carte blanche, do whatever you want, which is more or less how Rosie likes to do things.”

When asked if she’s after her ex-wife’s money, Rounds says these claims are a “character assassination.”

“I made my first million before the age of 39, that was before I met Rosie,” she said. “I don’t need Rosie’s money, I don’t want Rosie’s money. … The prenup money means nothing to me. I will walk away from the prenup if Rosie will give me full custody.”

On Tuesday, O’Donnell Instagrammed a shot of Dakota with her hand raised. “Excuse me – do i get a vote?,” she captioned the image of their daughter.

O’Donnell wed the New York-based headhunter in June 2012, and separated last November. The View alum, 53, also has four older children with former partner Kelli Carpenter.

excuse me – do i get a vote?

Congratulations are in order for Kevin Zegers and Jaime Feld.

The Gracepoint actor, 30, and his talent agent wife, 35, are expecting twin daughters this summer, E! News reports.

This will be the first children for the couple, who were wed in a star-studded ceremony in Aug. 2013.

“I’ve always wanted to become a dad,” the Canadian model-actor told ET Canada after their nuptials. “The more stuff I can do that’s not about me, the better.” He added, “We are certainly trying hard.”

Double the congrats to them!
