Justified Season 6, Episode 3 recap.

The dialogue on Justified is always good, but this episode was SPECTACULAR. This episode includes the line, “I’m going to shoot your dick off,” which has to be one of the top-five Justified one-liners of all time, although Ava telling the…      

Nicholas Hoult was photographed at JFK yesterday. He was in LA last week for some early promotion on Mad Max: Fury Road with Charlize Theron. You can see some of the shots here. The movie doesn’t open until May 15 and no, of course it won’t challenge The Avengers… but it doesn&…      

Last week, Lance Armstrong revealed he still has a massive attitude about his doping scandal. He still doesn’t understand why he was banned from competitive sports for life. He wants forgiveness but believes he fairly won his titles. His life is so unfair with only a borrowed mansion and Lancaritas to fill the day, you know? Lance also admits he’d dope again but thinks his “time out” should be over. (“Mom, can I come out of the corner now?”)

Just when I thought Lance’s sense of entitlement had reached its apex, law enforcement reveals he cheated his way out of hit-and-run charges. Lance spent the Christmas holiday in Apsen with his girlfriend (and mother of his two children), Anna Hansen. They hit some parties, and Lance reportedly hit two parked cars in Aspen. Instead of owning up to his (allegedly) drunken state, Lance let Anna take the blame. Here’s the lowdown from Page Six:

Authorities say disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong hit two parked cars after a night of partying in Aspen but agreed to let his girlfriend take the blame to avoid national attention.

Police say they cited Armstrong after the Dec. 28 hit-and-run but only after his girlfriend, Anna Hansen, admitted to lying for him.

Police say Hansen told them she had been driving home from a party when she lost control of Armstrong’s SUV, hitting the cars. But Hansen eventually told officers Armstrong was driving, and they both decided to let her take the blame.

Armstrong declined immediate comment, and his attorney didn’t immediately return a call.

Us Weekly confirms Lance was loaded. Anna took the blame because “Lance had a little bit to drink.” She didn’t want the press to destroy him over drunk driving. Anna now tells police she and Lance agreed to have her take the blame “ in order to protect their family.” Well, it didn’t work. Lance has been charged with leaving the scene of an accident. They won’t be able to prove his drunkenness, but maybe there will be other consequences.

Lance lied for many years about his doping. He doesn’t think he did anything wrong by doping. He’s perfectly fine with letting the mother of his children risk criminal charges so he can rebuild his marred image. And he thinks nothing of driving drunk. Lance Armstrong is a terrible person.

Hollywood couple Kim Kardashian and Kanye West hit the zoo with their 19-month-old daughter North.

Kardashian, 34, took to Instagram to share a few family photos of the outing, including a shot at the duck pond. “At the zoo with my boo and my baby boo,” she captioned the picture.

In a second photo, their tot takes the time to visit with a goat.

“We’ve really been trying for another kid,” Kardashian recently shared. “More kids can’t come soon enough!”

She went on to gush about her “smart” growing girl.

“[North] is so smart,” the proud mama boasted. “She is halfway potty trained, which is insane for her age. Last night she looked up at the sky and pointed and said, ‘Moon, Mom! Moon!’ I couldn’t believe she knew that.”

Dear Gossips,

On the Chinese calendar, today is the Start of Spring. Which means that, technically, the Year of the Horse is over and the Year of the Goat/Sheep has begun. Chinese New Year is on February 19. But the astrological year actually kicks off today. I know it’s confusing but w…

I still remember the horrible scene from 1993 when a man ran onto the court in Hamburg and stabbed tennis great Monica Seles, then just 19, in the back. Seles had amassed eight grand slam singles titles before she was attacked. She returned to the sport in 1995 but had trouble playing at the same superior level. Although she officially retired from professional tennis in 2008, Seles still does exhibition matches. Last year she got engaged to billionaire Tom Golisano, the 73 year-old founder of Paychex payroll processing.

Now Seles has returned to the spotlight to discuss her binge eating disorder. (Note: this is not the first time Seles has revealed this publicly, although outlets are reporting it like it is.) I thought that binge eating was like bulimia, but sufferers do not throw up, they just eat large quantities of food in one sitting and feel shame, guilt and a loss of control. Binge eating disorder was officially recognized by the American Psychiatric Association in 2013. Seles also has a new partnership with pharmaceutical company Shire, which puts out the first drug approved to treat BED, an amphetamine called Vyvanse. (Vyvanse is also approved to treat ADHD.) Here’s more on her announcement, and you can see a video of her interview on Good Morning America’s site:

In an interview with “Good Morning America”’s Lara Spencer, Seles opened up about her experience in an effort to raise awareness about the disorder.

People with binge eating disorder (B.E.D.) frequently eat an unusually large amount of food but do not throw it up, according U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of Women’s Health.

The binges may result in feelings of shame and embarrassment and may lead to obesity and other health problems. According to the Office of Women’s Health, as many as 4 million Americans suffer from the disorder, which tends to affect women more than men.

Seles is a paid spokesperson for Shire Pharmaceuticals, the drug company that make Vyvanse – the first drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treatment of the disorder. Vyvanse is already approved for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Seles, 41, also appears in new public service campaign about the disorder, including a public service announcement that debuted on Tuesday.

“My binge-eating episodes will usually happen in the evenings when I would be back by myself after a long day at the tennis courts and would just eat large quantities of food,” she says in the spot that’s a partnership with Shire Pharmaceuticals, the National Eating Disorder Association and the Binge Eating Disorder Association. “My eating was just uncontrollable. Once the binge was over I felt so upset with myself.”

Seles told Spencer that she wants fellow binge eating disorder sufferers to know that they’re not alone.

“I look at my life and how many years I wasted by being shamed about it, hiding it from my family and friends and doing my binges in private … now there’s help out there,” she said, mentioning the website BingeEatingDisorder.com, which has information and resources about B.E.D.

Seles told Spencer that stressful situations led to her binges.

“My trigger foods were pretzels, potato chips,” she said. “And I would do them alone because I was so ashamed that, here, I was a tennis player who was so controlling on the tennis court. I could direct. I’m very dedicated. Yet, in this one area of binge eating I was out of control.”

This reminds me very much of when Paula Deen announced that she had diabetes – at the same time she revealed her partnership with Novo Nordisk to shill diabetes drugs. While I do think Seles is sincere about having BED, it doesn’t sit well with me that she’s discussing her binge eating disorder at the same time that she’s announcing that she’s a spokesperson. She’s advertising a prescription drug basically. I do wonder how this came about. Monica’s wiki page reveals that she’s spoken about her binge eating disorder in the past, so it’s probable that the pharmaceutical company approached her.

I think it’s hard for me to relate to BED as a disorder because I do overeat, especially after I exercise hard and especially at night as Seles explains. I won’t eat an entire big bag of pretzels or a while pizza or anything, but sometimes I have an extra bowl or three and feel like I’ve lost control when I’m snacking. Many people do this, but people with BED do it to the extent that it interferes with their lives and they feel shame about it. Good for Seles for talking about it, but I still question her motivation. Also, binge eating disorder can be a product of our society. It’s way too easy to get high calorie low-nutrient food and we’re bombarded with images of food p0rn constantly.

Sean Penn started his Haiti charity/foundation JPHRO shortly after the massive earthquake in 2010. Some say Penn was doing penance for all of his years of douchebaggery. Some say he was inspired to give back after his son survived a bad accident. Some say Sean always had a compassionate side and this was just the latest example. And some said he just absorbed himself in the cause of the moment, and he would forget about it soon enough. Sean lived for a time in Haiti, but he’s back to living full time in LA and wherever he has to go on location for film shoots. But his JPHRO is still raising money for Haitians, and Sean throws a now-annual fundraiser for his foundation. Last month’s star-studded fundraiser raised $6 million for JPHRO.

But I’ve always wondered how much of the JPHRO money actually makes it to Haiti. Penn started the foundation from scratch, and I always assumed the start-up costs and administrative costs must have been significant. That’s the thing about starting your own charity versus simply attaching your name to an already-established charity: it’s all on you to get a significant amount of the money raised to the actual people in need. Well, a Haitian filmmaker named Raoul Peck has made a documentary called Fatal Assistance, and Peck claims that “only a fraction” of the $9 billion pledged to Haiti has actually made it to Haiti or the Haitian people. It’s an indictment of many of the failed charity schemes and half-hearted attempts to help, especially since 350,000 Haitians are still homeless or living in makeshift camps all these years later.

So, obviously, Page Six contacted Sean Penn to see if he would comment on Peck’s film. Here’s what Sean had to say:

“Peck is confusing the funds committed by international donors (foreign governments) in 2010 with the tangible and provable monies raised by JPHRO and others spent to extraordinary effect. His simplification of criticism echoes strategies once used by tyrants and Nazis, and its only result can be that which is injurious to the extraordinary people of Haiti. Self-serving critics like Peck are Haiti’s greatest enemy.”

[From Page Six]

Here’s the thing: I think there probably is a worthy investigation to be done into how much money actually reached the Haitians. There’s also a worthy investigation to be done into which of these little Haitian-charity start-ups are actually working on any level. And if Penn had simply said that “there is confusion” about which funds are which and what is actually working, I would have believed him. But he went straight for the Nazi comparison, Godwin’s Law be damned. When your answer to legitimate criticism and questioning is “YOU ARE A NAZI FOR ASKING QUESTIONS,” then I’m sorry, we need to ask those questions.

Here are some photos of Brandi Glanville at last night’s “Bloodbath red carpet” for Celebrity Apprentice in NYC. Don’t ask me to care about Celebrity Apprentice, because the well is dry. I know Brandi was having some kind of blood feud with Kenya Moore, and that Kenya Moore is setting herself up to be the major villain of the season. As for these photos… I wish Brandi didn’t feel the need for the Botox and fillers. She’s a pretty woman naturally, and I kind of think the extras make her look older.

What else? Let’s see, there are a bunch of stories about and around Brandi this week, so let’s do some highlights:

*Star Magazine pointed out that LeAnn Rimes is still stalking Brandi on Twitter. Brandi posted some photos of herself in the kitchen and tagged them #Cookingforfamily. Just a few hours later, LeAnn used the exact same hashtag. Pathetic.

*Kyle Richards and Brandi had some kind of crazy blowout on RHOBH and Kyle tells Us Weekly: “I honestly have never met someone like Brandi in my life. She has no regard for your children, your family, your marriage, your businesses; when she decides to go after you she is vicious and relentless.” Their fight was mostly about Kim Richards and how Kim is a mess, and Kyle thinks Kim should not be spending any time with Kim at all – you can read more about it here.

*Brandi tells E! News that she decided to do Celebrity Apprentice for her kids: “I really wanted to impress my parents and I wanted to do a show that possibly my 11-year-old could watch. I don’t let him watch Housewives because I’m a giant a-hole on that show.” Brandi also says that she’s happy she gets to a different kind of reality show: “I’m excited to have this out and to have a balance between drunk-fun Brandi and now you get to see Brandi doing business deals, tasks and using my brain…instead of my wine glass.”

And finally, there’s still some long-standing conversation about whether Brandi is an alcoholic and whether she would benefit from rehab. As I’ve said, I don’t watch RHOBH so I don’t know how bad it gets. But most of the Real Housewives are constantly drunk, right? I’m pretty sure producers are always making sure liquor fuels the filming. But sure, it does sound like Brandi takes it too far. Dial it back, girl.

Sometimes we get Celebitchy newbies who are not familiar with my aversion to bad bangs. For the record, I believe nearly all bangs are bad. It’s my hangup and I’m working through it. I have three categories: the worst is “bangs trauma,” where a woman has gotten bangs and it was a really bad decision that she should regret. The second category is “middle ground bangs” – which does happen – where the lady doesn’t really look that different with or without bangs, or when the bangs are done well (which is a spectacular feat). Then there is the unicorn, the rare woman who looks amazing with bangs and should never be without them.

Which of those three options is Behati Prinsloo? I feel sort of sorry for Behati, I think this is the first time I’ve ever covered her without the story having something to do with her new-husband Adam Levine. She’s a successful model in her own right, although she became much more famous when she got with Levine. Can we blame Levine for these bangs? Because I think these are full-on BANGS TRAUMA. Behati debuted The Trauma at a Super Bowl party on Saturday. I guess it’s taken this long for most sites to ID her. Because she looks so different with those hideous bangs.

You know who Behati reminded me of with her new hair? Bradley Cooper’s young girlfriend, Suki Waterhouse. Suki’s been doing a similar fringe for a few years. I kind of think Suki pulls it off better than Behati.

I just realized that Jeremy Renner has been MIA this awards season. He did a back-to-back twofer in 2010 and 2011 with Oscar nominations, and if he wanted to, I would guess that he could totally end up a presenter at the Oscars. Some people do that, especially if they’re not promoting anything – they’ll avoid all of the awards season hoopla except for the Oscars and the Oscar parties. It would be good to see Renner out and about on Oscar night.

Anyway, as we know, Renner’s wife of ten months filed for divorce in December. It seemed very sudden to most of us out here in the cheap seats, and of course there were TONS of conspiracy theories, especially since Sonni Pacheco listed “fraud” as one of the reasons for the divorce. A month ago, Sonni issued her first direct statement to a media outlet, when she told The Daily Mail was she was “fine” and that she hopes everything will be resolved quickly. Renner’s camp insists that Renner was somewhat blindsided by the divorce filing, even though they were having big problems. Renner’s camp insists that he will fight Sonni on custody of their daughter Ava and his biggest worry is that Sonni will take Ava to Canada. Now TMZ has more information about what could be a major custodial/divorce fight:

Sonni is asking for primary custody of their 22-month-old daughter Ava. What’s curious … since they split in December, we’ve learned they have shared 50/50 custody. In California there’s a presumption that a divorcing couple should share joint custody, which is what they’ve had.

In addition, she’s claiming his house is unsafe for the child. Sonni says the pool needs to be properly fenced. She also claims he has a gun collection and one of the weapons [is] out in the open, behind a bar. But we’re told when she lived in that house with their child the pool was protected and the guns were all locked up.

Sonni claims Jeremy’s loaded and she’s not — so she wants lots of child support. She says he made around $3.5 million in 2014 and has $13 million in assets. In the legal docs obtained by TMZ … Sonni says when she told Jeremy he’d have to pay child support he responded, “Get a j.o.b.” But our sources say he’s been paying child support since they split. She also wants $75K in attorney’s fees and another $25K in other legal expenses.

Sources connected with Jeremy grouse he’s given Sonni everything she’s asked for and this is just a ploy to make what should be a simple divorce very expensive.

[From TMZ]

I think having loaded weapons out in the open is a really big deal. I’m actually pro-gun and pro-gun control – I believe sane people should have access to most guns, but I think reasonable limits should be imposed, like no guns in school zones and if you have children in your home, your guns should be under lock and key. The pool thing seems like a pretty simple fix – Renner could just hire someone to childproof his property and get the whole thing knocked out in a day. As for the money and custody fight… eh. I’m surprised Renner is worth so little (in Hollywood terms). And yes, I kind of think he should just pay her to go away. That’s what she wants.
