Khloé Kardashian Slammed For Letting True Do This

No one has ever said the Kardashians are great parents, but the latest story from Khloé Kardashian’s house is leading to allegations of bad parenting. The world has repeatedly seen the Kardashians make strange decisions, as their lives are the focal point of the reality TV show Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

Now that the youngest Kardashian sister is raising her own children, she appears to have learned little from watching the shortcomings of those around her.

True is Khloé’s first child, whom she had with basketball player Tristan Thompson. True was born in 2018, and her parents split less than a year later. In the years since they’ve split up, they’ve reconciled several times and even had a second child via surrogacy. 

What’s the Latest on True?

Growing up in the Kardashian world means True doesn’t lead a normal life. Obviously, being surrounded by people who throw around money like it’s water doesn’t help her situation. It also means that she will be used to generate revenue for the family. 

True recently turned six years old, and shortly after, Khloé signed her up to become a model. There are plenty of strong opinions on whether or not kids should be models. The unneeded pressure to perform a job instead of growing up like normal kids obviously has a long-term negative impact.

Growing up a Kardashian is already hard enough since all family drama is regularly aired on TV and across tabloids. Putting the extra weight of work on a child is even more cruel. 

Everyone has a different parenting style, and there isn’t one “right” way to raise a child. However, people who are famous and in the public eye should at least try to shield their children from the craziness of that world.

The Deal with Zip N’ Bear

Khloé recently signed a deal to make True the “new face” of pajama brand Zip N’ Bear. True appeared in a video where she announced her role while sitting in front of a giant teddy bear. Khloé also appeared in the video to help explain what they are advertising. 

Unfortunately, there aren’t any details on the deal as neither Zip N’ Bear nor Khloé divulged its value or length. People visiting the Zip N’ Bear website are met with a picture of True on the front page holding a stuffed bear. 

There was some confusion online about whether Zip N’ Bear sells stuffed toys or pajamas, but they actually have both. The idea is that consumers can buy pajamas and then also buy a bear with matching clothes. It is along the lines of Build-a-Bear but with matching clothes for kids. 

Critics online quickly began chastizing Khloé for putting her daughter to work. While it may not be the best decision, there are countless modeling and acting roles held by kids all over the country. 

While there is a lot to dislike about the Kardashians, True, making a few videos and doing some photoshoots is not a major concern. It is strange that people online are so concerned about someone’s parenting choices.  

Darius Rucker Speaks Out About Arrest

Darius Rucker from the band Hootie and the Blowfish has long been seen as a clean artist who stays out of trouble and avoids drama. But the last thing fans expected were headlines of his arrest for drug possession. Finally, after months of silence, Darius Rucker is speaking out about the arrest and his plans for the future.

Darius Rucker was arrested on February 1st in Williamson County, Tennessee. However, the story is much stranger than it appears.

According to a recent interview, Rucker stated that he was pulled over back in 2023. The officer found a small amount of marijuana and mushrooms on him. 

However, the officer let him go, so he thought the incident was over. Fast forward to a year later and a police officer friend reached out to Rucker to let him know he came across an outstanding warrant. That outstanding warrant led to the February 1st arrest. 

Hootie Goes to Jail

The charges are for two misdemeanor drug violations and a vehicle registration violation. Shortly after his arrest, Rucker posted the $10,500 bail and announced he was “fully cooperating with authorities related to the misdemeanor charges.”

It’s odd that the officer let Rucker go if he was going to go through the trouble of pursuing charges. With this level of misdemeanor, the officer would normally have given the offender a citation, which may have needed to be addressed in court. 

Darius Rucker feels like he was personally targeted. In his recent interview, he said, “I think somebody wanted to make an example out of me, and they did. And I’m handling it with my lawyers and paying the price, and we’ll move on with our lives.”

The friend that first alerted Rucker to the outstanding warrant also backed up that sentiment by saying, “Have you pissed somebody off up here? Because it is crazy that they’re doing this a year later.”

Although Rucker may feel the charges are a bit overboard, it is the reality that any normal person would face. It’s obvious that he is not getting special treatment as a celebrity, and perhaps he is surprised by that. 

As of June, Rucker still hasn’t gone to court over the incident, and the charges are still pending. 

What’s Next for Rucker

If there is one positive about Rucker’s arrest, it’s that it puts his name back in the spotlight, albeit in a bit darker light than he probably wants. That extra attention may be beneficial, considering Darius Rucker has some big events coming up.

Rucker recently appeared on the Today Show where he spoke out on the arrest and detailed his upcoming book Life’s Too Short: A Memoir. The book chronicles his life as a musician starting Hottie and the Blowfish while at the University of South Carolina. The book also covers many of Rucker’s inspirations and crazy stories from his childhood to the present day. 

Beyond the book, Darius Rucker has a few new songs and is on tour through the end of the year. While his arrest was unexpected, the singer appears to be making the best of it. 

Ray J Speaks Out About Diddy

It looks like someone finally has a solution to Sean Diddy Combs’s woes. Ever since CNN released that shocking hotel video of him physically assaulting Cassie Ventura, Diddy’s once-glorious legacy has been reduced to a bad joke. The fallout from that footage has been massive, and now everyone in the pop culture world is buzzing about it.

Recently, Ray J, the “One Wish” entertainer, was interviewed by The Art of Dialogue. During the interview, Ray J didn’t hold back his feelings about the Bad Boy Records founder and the Cassie incident. 

RELATED: Diddy Did This to His Mom, Janice

“It’s not OK,” he said. “When somebody is around somebody and we’re counting on them to be one of our leaders in a space that we’re all trying to get to, that’s not acceptable to do and it’s not OK.” Ray J made it clear that he was deeply disappointed in Combs, calling the incident “unforgettable.”

Despite having known Diddy for years, having shared meals and good times together, Ray J didn’t shy away from expressing his loss of respect for the Bad Boy For Life hitmaker. He said that after watching that video, he no longer desired to be friends with Diddy. 

“I mean, it might be forgivable in a sense of a spiritual realm of life or forgive everybody but it’s unforgettable, and that’s where you just draw the line on friendship and hanging out and supporting and being cool. It’s like ni**a, it’s done, and that’s it,” Ray J explained.

Ray J Suggested an Exorcism

Ray J didn’t stop there. He believed that Diddy’s case was beyond human intervention, suggesting that an exorcism might be the only way to redeem him. 

“And it’s not something that ni*as can just take lightly. You cannot do that. Not OK. It’s not cool. Period,” he continued, before going on to suggest an “exorcism” for Combs.

“[The video] was heartbreaking and shameful and unacceptable. I’ve never seen nothing like that. I’ve never seen nothing like that in the history of my life, so that’s a new [one] for me. I don’t know what kind of demon you are, but somebody need to muthafkin’ perform an exorcism fast.”

Having been in the industry for ages, Ray J also predicted what Sean Diddy’s life was about to become. He explained that the once-superstar would go down in history as a disgraced and isolated outcast, a pariah shunned by former colleagues and collaborators. 

“Life in this industry goes on without certain people because their membership club is revoked, their membership in the club is revoked. It’s over, so you don’t have room to make mistakes like that in the big club — you can’t do that. It’s inexcusable.”

“If you threw a party tonight, the people are your invitation list — that club,” Ray J said. “The people who throw a party tomorrow, a foundation, could be anything. Anything that has substance to it is no longer available for certain people to be invited to.”

Diddy’s Facade Has Crumbled

Since Cassie Ventura’s lawsuit and the harrowing footage surfaced, everything has been downhill for Sean Diddy Combs. More people, particularly former employees, have come forward with heart-wrenching and brutal allegations against him. 

From a pop star who once dominated the music charts and was adored by fans worldwide for his catchy hits and lavishly extravagant parties, Diddy’s facade has crumbled. The public’s reaction has been swift and unforgiving.

He’s no longer the darling of the pop scene. Diddy has gone from being a household name to a cautionary tale almost overnight.

Ray J’s candid and intense remarks about Diddy have only added fuel to the fire. With such an indictment from someone who once considered him a friend, it seems like Diddy’s fall from grace is all but complete. His days in the spotlight are truly over.

Is Rihanna Really Retiring?

All it took to get fans riled up with rumors of retirement was for Rihanna to step out with A$AP Rocky on a sunny day in NYC.

Earlier this month, Lainey Gossip reported that Rihanna stepped out wearing a tee shirt dress with the phrase “I’m Retired (and this is as dressed up as I get.)” Following the incident, Rihanna sparked a whole debate on whether or not she’d be producing any more music.

Is Rihanna actually about to call it quits on her musical career? Here’s what we can say for sure:

Nope. She’s Not Retiring Yet. 

    According to Vibe, Rihanna has already set people straight on her musical plans for the future, stating: “That was just me looking into the future. I’m not retired. I just like that dress.”

    “I got it as a gift and I loved it. They didn’t read the second line. I’m not retired, I’m just retired from dressing up — it’s a lot of effort.”

    Although Rihanna has no plans for retirement just yet, she is looking to reboot her approach to music. In her words: “I don’t wanna neglect the songs that I have. So I wanna go back and listen to stuff with new ears with my new perspective and see what applies and what I still am in love with.”

    Vibe reported Rihanna joking about how long her latest album has taken her to put together. She said “[Fenty Hair] is probably the longest I’ve ever taken to create something. No, I lied — that’s R9.”

    Rihanna Is Starting Over 

      Rihanna mentioned how this album has been “a new discovery” for her and that she’s been collaborating very closely with A$AP on it. Hollywood Reporter covered her saying: “I already got stuff that I feel like I can make hits out of. Yeah, really […] Me and Rocky are really trying to figure out who is going to use what because it’s so good.

      I think that music, for me, is a new discovery. I’m rediscovering things. I have been working on the album for so long that I kinda put all that stuff aside and now I’m prepared to go back in the studio. I’m gonna start — give me a second!”

      According to Hollywood Reporter, she also joked about people getting triggered over her “I’m retired” tee. She said “People got triggered with that retired word.”

      “They were like, ‘We’re never getting an album now.’ No one read the other line, it was something about, ‘This is as dressed up as I get.'”

      How Long Has It Been Since Rihanna Released Music?

        It’s been a minute since Rihanna’s last full-length album dropped. She released “Anti” all the way back in 2016, after all. Her many businesses have taken up a lot of her time since then, not to mention her family life. 

        Outside of her 2023 Super Bowl halftime show performance and a contribution to the “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” soundtrack one year before, she hasn’t been super active in the music space.

        But, Marie Claire reports her reassuring her fans that “Clearly I’m here, clocked in.”

        What’s Going On with Martin Lawrence

        During the Mexico City premiere for Bad Boys: Ride or Die, fans worried about Martin Lawrence’s health. Is the actor facing issues with his health, or were the concerns just a mistake?

        While at the premiere, Lawrence and Will Smith were greeting fans from the top of a balcony. As Lawrence stepped out, Smith grabbed his hand, making it look like the 59-year-old actor was unsteady on his feet. Lawrence continued to concern fans as he grabbed Smith for support.

        He also seemed confused about where he should go. Smith was there to help him, and he showed no concern on his face in the video. The Men in Black actor has not mentioned any concern about his friend’s health, either.

        Martin Lawrence was Shocked By the Number of People Attending

        As fans worried that Lawrence’s health was failing, he spoke out to say that wasn’t the case. He is in good health and was unsteady for another, understandable reason. Lawrence was in shock by the number of people who turned out for the Bad Boys 4 premiere event.

        In Touch reports that he went on Ebro Darden’s show at Hot 97 to talk about the event, sharing that it was “rock concert stuff.” Despite all his years as an actor, he has never seen a crowd like that.

        RELATED: Why Taylor Swift is Worried About Travis

        It was overwhelming for him. He couldn’t believe that so many people would turn up just for a movie.

        Many of those who have seen the movie itself have praised it. There are many comments about actors being too old to reprise former roles, but that is not the case with the Bad Boys 4 installment. Lawrence and Smith continue to prove they can do all the action they need.

        Martin Lawrence’s Health Problems Explained

        The fears were also noted in May 2024. CommingSoon reports that while in an Extra TV interview in May 2024, Lawrence mispronounced some words and fans thought he was slurring. This recent red carpet event has fans connected back to that, but it’s not just recent footage that has fans worried.

        Fans worry about their favorite actors, especially when they have a history of health problems. Twice during the 1990s, Lawrence was diagnosed with heat exhaustion and dehydration. Many fans worried the same thing was happening at the Bad Boys: Ride or Die premiere event.

        In 1996, Lawrence was hospitalized after he ran out in traffic shouting and swearing. In 1999, he was in a three-day coma after collapsing. Both were attributed to heat exhaustion.

        However, he doesn’t want fans to worry about him. Lawrence shared: “I’m in God’s hands. I’m blessed. You know, I’m glad to be waking up every day. I’m all good, though. No need for people to be concerned.”

        He did go on to request that people “stop the rumors” about his health problems, according to Variety. There is nothing wrong with him. Lawrence has nothing else to share, and he makes it clear that fans mistook his shock at the crowd for a medical issue.

        Honey Boo Boo’s Dramatic Transformation

        Once again making news is Alana Thompson, also known as Honey Boo Boo, the adorable pageant queen who won America’s heart on “Toddlers & Tiaras” and “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.” This time, it’s for her amazing weight loss journey rather than her hilarious one-liners or crazy family antics. 

        The now-teenaged Alana Thompson has had a remarkable metamorphosis that has astounded both admirers and detractors. Let’s go into more of Honey Boo Boo‘s motivational weight loss journey and her gorgeous face reveal.

        Honey Boo Boo’s Weight Loss Journey

        Alana was used to the limelight from her early years as a beauty pageant contestant and as a reality TV celebrity as she got older. But Alana felt it was time for a shift when she became a teenager. No longer a child star, she started down a path of a healthier lifestyle, and the outcomes are pretty impressive.

        Alana didn’t have an easy road to change. Sources say she battled with her weight for years, coming under public and media scrutiny. Her family‘s encouragement and focused attitude helped her to start a weight-loss quest that would transform her life.

        Alana wanted to change her lifestyle, not only lose weight. She began by undergoing weight loss surgery. The star has said in the past that losing weight was very difficult for her as she lacked motivation. 

        Alana underwent a suture sculpt endoscopic sleeve. The pricey surgery (which can cost over $14,000) has been proven to help patients get to a healthy weight. The surgery works by reducing the size of one’s gastric reservoir, and it is usually only recommended for obese patients.

        Everyone had been eager for Alana to reveal her new look. And while she allegedly isn’t at her goal weight yet, it’s very clear that she has lost quite a bit of weight. The once chubby-cheeked young actress now had a healthier, thinner body, and her confidence is very much evident. 

        Alana Thompson Is a Role Model For Teens Dealing With Weight Problems

        Alana allegedly had the procedure done a few years ago. This type of weight loss surgery usually takes some time to take effect. 

        Along with motivating her followers, Alana’s makeover has established her as a role model for young teens dealing with weight problems. Her experience is proof that positive thinking, support, and endurance have great power when it comes to taking control of one’s health. Alana’s story serves as a reminder that anybody can accomplish their goals with diligence.

        Though Alana has come a long way in her weight loss quest, she is aware that leading a healthy lifestyle is a lifetime commitment. She has not revealed what her diet currently looks like, but we can imagine she eats more vegetables and fruit and not as much “go-go juice” as she once enjoyed. Good job, Alana!

        Priscilla Presley and Riley Keough End Feud

        One family feud is coming to an end. Priscilla Presley and Riley Keough are reportedly tired of all the fighting. It’s time to bring the fight for Graceland to an end.

        The feud started in January 2023, after the shocking and untimely death of Lisa Marie Presley. Lisa Marie cut off her mom in favor of her granddaughter when it came to Graceland, the home and burial place of her father Elvis. Priscilla was distraught and quickly took steps to challenge the will.

        The Battle for Graceland

        Keough knew her family history. She understood the strenuous relationship between Lisa Marie and Priscilla.

        Still, wanted to honor her late mother’s wishes via the will set out. That meant fighting for Graceland.

        In Touch reports that Priscilla wants to be buried next to her late ex-husband at Graceland. Because of this, she wants to put an end to the feud, and she is begging her granddaughter to be allowed her own final wishes. The 79-year-old would like to be at Graceland in her final days to be able to be buried there.

        The legal battle for Graceland was eventually settled out of court in May 2023, and a judge signed off on the agreement in November of the same year. Keough gave her grandmother $1 million in return for relinquishing claims to Lisa Marie’s estate.

        Priscilla also got $1.4 million for the family trust control and $400,000 to cover legal fees. Priscilla felt like this wasn’t enough considering the way she grew Graceland into the tourist attraction that it became.

        There were other legal issues for Keough to deal with. A fraudulent company attempted to claim Graceland, leading to it almost being put up for auction. That didn’t happen in the end thanks to Keough’s fight for it.

        Sources say that the Daisy Jones and The Six star intends to move to the estate and run it.

        The Presley Feud Comes to an End

        It was due to the way Elvis’s granddaughter stood up to the fraudulent company and won that Priscilla decided it was time to bring the bitter feud to an end. She was so impressed that she realized her granddaughter was more than capable of running the show.

        In May 2024, Priscilla invited Keough to her Beverly Hills birthday party. Keough’s twin half-sisters, Finley and Harper Lockwood were also invited, making it clear that there is an aim to bury the hatchet across the table.

        People Magaizine shared photos of Keough attending the 2023 Emmy Awards with her grandmother, showing that the family feud had come to an end earlier than that. The 34-year-old was up for an Emmy for Outstanding Actress in a Limited Series.

        All Priscilla now wants is to be able to be buried at Graceland with Elvis and Lisa Marie. That is the place where Elvis and Priscilla spent their happiest years together. It is a beautiful location with wonderful memories.

        The best way to ensure her wishes will be to work with Keough instead of against her.

        Kalani Faagata Reveals Surprise Baby News

        In the whirlwind world of celebrity gossip, where secrets are harder to keep than a Hollywood smile, Kalani from 90 Day Fiancé just dropped a bombshell that left everyone stunned. While the paparazzi were busy chasing shadows and speculating about who’s dating whom, Kalani managed to pull off the ultimate secret. She had a baby, and no one saw it coming!

        It was a picture-perfect reveal on June 4th when Kalani and Dallas Nuez, made their baby debut on Instagram. The shot, straight from the hospital, showed their precious little girl swaddled in lavender, her tiny face beaming like she knew she was the talk of the town already. The caption was simple yet loaded with emotion: “Meet our daughter.”

        Fans and fellow 90 Day Fiancé stars alike flooded the comments section, echoing surprise and showering the new parents with congratulations.

        The twist is hardly anyone even knew Kalani was pregnant! The rumor mill churned last summer with whispers of a baby bump, but Kalani shut them down like a pro, insisting there were no bundles of joy on the way.

        Turns out she was playing her cards close to her chest. Come September 2023, a new addition arrived.

        The Baby Wasn’t the Only Surprise

        Now, let’s talk about the man of the hour, Dallas Nuez. His debut wasn’t just about fatherhood; it was his big reveal too.

        Up until that hospital room snapshot, Kalani had kept his face under wraps. Some say it was strategic—keeping their love story out of the limelight until they were ready to share their complete joy with the world.

        But of course, not everyone’s thrilled about this new chapter in Kalani’s life. Critics are already pointing fingers, citing her rocky history with her ex-husband Asuelu Pulaa.

        RELATED: 90 Day Fiancee Vanessa Announces Divorce

        Their marriage was a rollercoaster from the start, filled with trust issues, multiple betrayals, and extreme cases of infidelity. Despite two kids, they eventually called it quits, leaving fans skeptical when Kalani moved on with Dallas. Many believe Kalani moved on too fast before the old wound healed.

        Speaking of old wounds, Asuelu and Kalani’s co-parenting relationship remains a topic of hot debate. They may have split, but their recent friendly encounter at their son Oliver’s birthday party raised eyebrows—and glasses. Some think their rapport is too cozy for comfort, sparking doubts about Dallas’ long-term commitment.

        Happily Ever After or Gossip Collum Headline?

        Then, there are those who say Kalani and Dallas are just rebounding off each other. Critics claim their connection lacks true love, branding it a fling born out of convenience rather than passion. Others argue that Kalani deserves a fresh start, especially after enduring her ex’s repeated infidelities.

        RELATED: Amber Portwood’s Boyfriend Gary Reported Missing

        Despite the drama, Kalani and Dallas seem determined to make it work. Their love story began in autumn 2022, evolving from a casual “hall pass” rendezvous into something more. Now, with a baby in the mix, they’re navigating the choppy waters of fame, family, and unforeseen obstacles.

        Whether their tale ends with a happily-ever-after or becomes another headline in the gossip columns remains to be seen. For now, Kalani’s surprise baby announcement has rocked the celebrity world, proving once again that in the game of fame, some secrets are worth keeping—until they’re not.

        Brad Pitt Upset About Shiloh Dropping His Last Name

        Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been going through a divorce and custody battle for nearly 8 years now. This has been tough on the entire family, including their daughter Shiloh, who was caught in the middle of their dispute.

        Recently, Shiloh made it clear she was siding with her mother, as she legally filed to remove “Pitt” from her hyphenated last name. According to reports, Pitt is upset and devastated by the news, though he knows he can’t force her to do anything and can only hope the relationship gets better over time.

        Why Angelina Jolie Filed For Divorce 

        Pitt and Jolie first met while filming the movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2003, and began to fall in love on the set. The pair were often seen together by the paparazzi over the following years, but only went public with their relationship for the first time in early 2006, when Jolie announced she was pregnant with Pitt’s child.

        After many years together, the couple ultimately married in 2014. However, only two short years after being married, Jolie officially filed for divorce on September 19th 2016, citing irreconcilable differences. There were also allegations of abuse carried out by Pitt on an airplane ride in September 2016, but Pitt has denied these. This event on the plane reportedly occurred only a few days before Jolie filed for divorce.

        Why Shiloh Jolie Decided to Change Last Name 

        However, the divorce process has dragged on for multiple years as the two continue to fight for custody of their children. In addition to this process being difficult for the couple, it’s also been especially challenging for their 18-year old daughter Shiloh. She had to grow up throughout this back and forth battle, as she was only around 10 years old when Jolie filed for divorce.

        Recently, Shiloh made it clear whose side she was on when she filed to legally change her name from Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, to Shiloh Jolie. This is something she’s reportedly wanted to do for years, and actually filed on May 27th, 2024, which was her 18th birthday. She even paid for and hired her very own lawyer to help file the name change according to reports.

        Brad Pitt’s Child Blasted Pitt As Being a Terrible Person 

        However, Shiloh’s not the only one of their children to pick a side, as several other children are estranged from Pitt or don’t spend much time with him.

        This includes 22-year old Maddox, who has no intention of seeing Pitt again according to reports, and 19-year old Zahara, who publicly introduces herself as Zahara Jolie and doesn’t keep in contact with Pitt. Also, 20-year old Pax has publically blasted Pitt as being a terrible person on a private Instagram account.

        Pitt is reportedly hurt and upset by Shiloh’s recent choice and is pained by the distance between him and his children over the years, and wants to regain their trust. While the final outcome of the divorce is still up in the air, it seems as if Shiloh and the other children have picked their side, and Pitt doesn’t seem particularly happy about it.

        For those not in the know, IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) is a procedure where eggs are extracted from a woman’s ovaries, fertilized with sperm in a lab, and then implanted into the woman’s uterus to achieve pregnancy. It’s a beacon of hope for many couples facing fertility issues.

Bunnie has stepped up as an incredible stepmom, creating strong, loving bonds with both kids.

        Fans have praised Bunnie for her loving relationship with Jelly Roll’s son Noah, often seen sharing playful moments and making TikTok videos together.
