Kanye’s Billion-Dollar Mistake
Kanye’s mouth continues to destroy his business empire. Following weeks of antisemitic comments, his nearly decade-long partnership with Adidas is over, after a huge public outcry for the sportswear giant to drop Ye. Forbes estimates losing the partnership with Adidas will cost Yeezy a cool $1.5 billion. And they’re just the latest in a long line of celebrities, athletes and companies who have severed all ties with the rapper over his controversial remarks. And it looks like as a result of his well-documented hate speech, his music career is suffering too. Kanye’s radio airplay has plummeted and he’s now officially lost his billionaire status. So is Kanye’s career finally starting to crumble…and we have to wonder…does he even care?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hollywood Mourns Passing of Icon Leslie Jordan
Richies, sadly we are saying goodbye to yet another Hollywood icon. “Will & Grace” star Leslie Jordan died tragically yesterday at the age of 67 after suffering an undisclosed “medical emergency” while driving his car. After news of his death was reported, stars who knew and worked with Leslie flocked to their social media to mourn his passing and universally pay tribute to a man they said was as great a person as he was a comedic actor. And Leslie definitely deserves his props. In addition to a stellar career in film, TV and stage, Leslie also became a social media star for his hilarious “hunker down” Instagram videos during the height of lockdown. Leslie Jordan was a shining light in every aspect of his life. And even though he’s gone way too soon, he will not soon be forgotten by his millions of fans.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Taylor Swift's New Album Breaks Spotify (and a Few Hearts)
Swifties, rejoice! Last Friday, Taylor Swift released her tenth studio album “Midnights” and it not only broke sales records, it literally broke Spotify! Of course, Taylor’s most enthusiastic fans are already combing through her lyrics to figure out which of her exes are referred to in the lyrics. And there are already plenty of theories about that. But it’s not just Taylor’s lyrics that are getting people talking. In the music video for her song “Anti-Hero,” there’s a scene that has a lot of people online calling Taylor, fatphobic. Given how open Taylor’s been about her own struggles with body image issues, are people misunderstanding her messaging or is she being insensitive?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Whoopi Goldberg Says 'No Deal' to Meghan Markle
Meghan Markle says she is no brainless beauty, and she wants everyone to know it. On this week’s episode of her podcast “Archetypes with Meghan,” the duchess says she felt objectified and reduced to “bimbo” status during her time on “Deal or No Deal” as a “briefcase beauty.” But not everyone appreciates her hot take. “The View” host Whoopi Goldberg says Meghan knew exactly what she was signing up for and shouldn’t be complaining about it now. And Whoopi’s not the only who feels this way - other former DOND models are chiming in saying they disagree with Meghan too. So is this a big deal…or no big deal?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Andy Cohen Calls Out Lisa Rinna at RHOBH Reunion
Part Deux of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” reunion dropped last night, and it delivered! Tea was spilled and insults were hurled. There was even a heated debate about which is a bigger insult – being called “evil,” or the “C word.” But no one stole more focus – shocker!– than Lisa Rinna. She stunned everyone by admitting that she was the one who tossed Garcelle’s book in the trash, then Andy Cohen accused her of having zero online impulse control. To top it off, Sutton also chimed in about her beef with Lisa and made it clear that they are no longer friends. A lot happened last night, but did it top last week’s reunion episode? And how great will next week’s be when Kathy Hilton drops in?!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

James Corden Has Egg on His Face
James Corden has gotten himself into some hot water! After a couple of incidents in which he was abusive to wait staff, the host of “The Late Late Show” was 86'd from famed New York City restaurant Balthazar. On Monday, owner Keith McNally took to Instagram to slam James for his rude dining conduct, calling him “a tiny Cretin of a man.” The “Cats” actor has since personally apologized to Keith, and the ban has been lifted. This is not a first for James. He has been outed for this kind of behavior before, but never with this kind of widespread attention. So is James' apology just a gratuitous attempt to save face? Or is he sincerely sorry and ready to change his “cretinous” ways?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nanny Tells Bizarre Side of Olivia Wilde-Jason Sudeikis Break-Up
Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis’ former nanny has spilled the tea…and maybe the salad dressing? The ex-caretaker to their two kids has given an explosive tell-all interview to the Daily Mail, detailing how Olivia’s relationship with Harry Styles really began. She also says the “Ted Lasso” star felt “blindsided” when Olivia dumped him, and adds that he totally flipped out when he learned she left him for Harry. Things turned really ugly when Olivia made her pop star lover a salad and used their “special dressing.” But Jason and Olivia deny all the nanny’s claims (at least they came together on this), calling them “scurrilous.” So is there any truth to the nanny’s story? And, more importantly, where can we get that dressing recipe?!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

BravoCon Boos and Bombshells
BravoCon is back, baby! This past weekend, the celebration of all things Bravo returned bigger and better than ever, giving fans the chance to get up close and personal with their favorite reality TV stars. From a former “Real Housewives” star crashing parties, to family feuds which divided panels, there was no shortage of drama. But nothing got people talking more than “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Lisa Rinna’s surprise appearance, which was met with both cheers and jeers. So with booing fans against her, and her contract coming to an end, do we think Lisa's time on RHOBH is up?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Olivia Wilde on Sex and Sexism
It seems like the “Don’t Worry Darling” drama may never truly go away. Ever since production started on the movie, the rumor-mill has been working overtime. From stories about an alleged feud between director Olivia Wilde and the movie’s lead, Florence Pugh, to Spit-Gate with stars Harry Styles and Chris Pine, there’s been no shortage of drama. But in a new interview with Elle, Olivia is opening up about the film’s juicy press coverage, which she says is a result of Hollywood’s pervasive double-standard for women. Even though we may love the DWD tea, Olivia says this is something we don’t see with male directors. Is this just more evidence of sexism in the world of entertainment?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Scream Queens and Dishing Divas at the RHOBH Reunion
Last night’s “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” reunion episode pulled out all the stops. Hollywood icon and OG scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis did a surprise drop-in and talked about how important her appearance in an earlier episode was to her charity. Jamie brought all the feels, but once she left, the RHOBH stars were at the mercy of host Andy Cohen, who really stirred things up. Tensions mounted when Garcelle Beauvais accused Diana Jenkins of being behind the online attacks of her 14-year-old son. But Diana wasn’t the only one who faced some frenemy fire -- Crystal Kung Minkoff squared off against more than one of her co-stars. There was plenty of drama. Expectations are always so high with "Real Housewives" reunions, so we wonder: did part one deliver?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
