OHMYGOSSIP — Camila Cabello has been “going through it lately”.
The 27-year-old pop star – who first found fame as part of Fifth Harmony – has taken to social media to reveal that she’s taking a break from the spotlight while she deals with her issues.
Camila – who released her fourth studio album, ‘C,XOXO’, in June – wrote on Instagram: “going thru it lately
“feels like sometimes there is heartache everywhere i look, within me and around me
“and i try my best to show up for my friends, my fans and the people that show up for me
“but it’s hard to pour from what feels like an empty cup
“if I am a part of your life and i disappear sometimes,
that’s probably why
“so brb while i get some bandages and warm honey and stitches for this head and heart
“you know i’ll be back from my trips to hell hotter funnier and smarter
“;))) (sic)”
Meanwhile, Camila previously revealed that she’s “really into Buddhism”.
The singer has found various “mechanisms” to cope with the pressures of fame and success.
Camila – who embarked on a solo career after quitting Fifth Harmony in 2016 – said on the ‘Armchair Expert’ podcast: “I don’t think I would’ve changed when I started [ in the music industry], because so many parts of my personality today are because of the tools and the skills and … some adaptive and some maladaptive mechanisms that I had to develop to survive and thrive.
“For example, I’m really into Buddhism. That would have never happened, because I need those tools – being calm and being able to pull through. But also, it carries over to other life stuff where I feel like I’m wiser than I would have been.”

OHMYGOSSIP — LeToya Luckett is married.
The 43-year-old singer – who rose to fame in the 90s as part of Destiny’s Child – married entrepreneur Taleo Coles in a “chic, classic” ceremony in Houston, Texas over the weekend.
Speaking to PEOPLE, LeToya shared: “Marriage was something we both wanted.
“It means everything to have a partner who loves me and my kids deeply. This love feels like rest.”
The loved-up duo got engaged in March, and they were joined by hundreds of their closest family and friends on their big day.
LeToya – who has also enjoyed success as a solo artist – explained: “We started out with a guest count of 70 and that changed once we decided to wed in my hometown of Houston.
“We also knew with Taleo being the first grandchild of his family to get married, it would be tough to keep it at that number. While increasing the number, we still wanted it to feel intimate and cosy and I think we accomplished that with the layout and decor.”
LeToya walked down the aisle in a dress designed by Alonuko Bridal, and the singer explained why she was so determined to work with the brand.
She shared: “I wanted to incorporate some black girl bridal magic, so I went with two black female designers for both my wedding dress and reception dresses.”
LeToya thought the entire day was “magical” and she loved every moment of it.
The ‘Torn’ hitmaker said: “I still can’t believe how peaceful the day was.
“Everything just flowed for the most part. This wedding was magical. You could feel genuine love in that room.”
What’s more, LeToya admitted that her wedding day exceeded her own expectations.
She said: “It was better than we ever could’ve imagined. A dream come true!”

OHMYGOSSIP — Blake Lively wants her new beauty brand to “stand for itself”.
The 36-year-old actress has launched a new haircare brand called Blake Brown, and the Hollywood star has explained why she decided to use her dad’s name for the company, rather than her own.
Blake – who is married to actor Ryan Reynolds – told Harper’s Bazaar: “Brown is my dad’s [last] name. My dad took Lively from my mom. I just thought that was really cool.”
Despite this, Blake revealed that the name Blake Brown actually appears on her birth certificate.
She said: “I’ve only ever been called Blake Lively, but Blake Brown was on my birth certificate and it would show up in legal documents.
“It was always an identity that I never fully stepped into and it was the most intimate identity and people don’t really know anything about it.”
Blake ultimately hopes that her beauty brand will “earn people’s respect”.
The actress said: “I didn’t want to use Lively because I didn’t want people to think that I was just trying to cash in a celebrity brand. I wanted it to stand for itself.
“I wanted it to earn people’s respect.”
Blake recently revealed that she spent seven years “obsessively developing” her new business venture.
The actress said on Instagram: “Ever since I was a kid, through adolescence, early adulthood, motherhood, work, personal life, whenever, wherever, the single most identifiable part about me has always been my personalit— no? Not my personality? Oh… My hair.
“It’s my longest companion in life. For 36 years and counting. And like any relationship, it’s healthiest when you take good care of each other. To love it well, I’ve found a system that has worked wonders for me, a hack of sorts through decades of working with the very best people in the industry, and silly amounts of trial and error. I spent 7 years (I know. It toggles between impressive and wtf took so long) obsessively developing every detail of my newest baby, @blakebrownbeauty (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendall Jenner doesn’t “let a lot people in”.
The 28-year-old model has admitted to being very selective about who she chooses to befriend.
The brunette beauty said on Emma Chamberlain’s ‘Anything Goes’ podcast: “I don’t really let a lot people in – especially now. But I never really have since I was young. It’s kind of always been part of my nature.
“For me, it’s an energy thing.”
Kendall has been open about her anxiety struggles in recent times, and the model has now revealed how she copes with the issue.
She shared: “For a long time, I thought it was, ‘Do the meditation!’ … which, I believe in meditation, I believe that it is very helpful. ‘Do the meditation, do the actual real things’. Sometimes I think it’s as simple as … managing what can cause it, knowing what can cause it and trying to find your boundaries with it.”
Meanwhile, Kendall has admitted that she’s relished the challenge of running her own business.
The model has enjoyed significant success with her 818 Tequila brand, and Kendall has enjoyed the responsibility of driving the company forwards.
Kendall – who launched the company in 2021 – told Forbes: “With modelling, I was a part of someone else’s vision.
“I was their character and whoever they wanted me to be at that moment. The shift into being a founder and owning my own business was a really cool way of getting to know myself again.”
Kendall leans on Kris Jenner, her mom, for business advice. However, she admits that the lines can sometimes be blurred in their relationship.
Kendall explained: “Obviously, my mom is my mom, but she’s also my manager.
“We have moments, when we’re talking on the phone, and we’re talking about business, maybe having a heated conversation about something, and then all of a sudden, she’s like ‘OK I love you how are you feeling today?’ and I’m like ‘Oh my god, yeah you’re my mom, too!'”

In a message posted on her Instagram, Rachel said: “I am deeply saddened to hear of Jax’s mental health struggles and I wholeheartedly support his decision to seek treatment.”
Rachel, 29, actually spent time at a mental health facility last year, following her months-long affair with Tom Sandoval.

She explained: “Taylor’s situation highlights the urgent need for mental healthcare and accessible treatment for reality TV stars [stars emojis] Wishing you a speedy recovery. (sic)”

“He has made the decision to seek in-patient treatment. This is a particularly sensitive time for him and his family. They ask for privacy and respect until he is ready to speak more on this matter.”
Brittany and Jax announced their split earlier this year – but she subsequently admitted that a reconciliation remained possible.
The 35-year-old beauty told Us Weekly: “There’s definitely a chance. But I won’t waste my time and get back into a toxic situation.
“Now the veil has been lifted and I see how much I was always cleaning up Jax’s messes. I’m thrown in the middle of all these fights and constantly forced to apologise for him in the media and to friends. It’s hard.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex have shared their commitment to helping make the internet a safer space for young people.
The royal couple – who stepped down as senior members of the British Royal Family to embark on a financially independent life in the US in 2020, with their two young children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three – have given a rare joint interview where they highlight the impact online bullying can have on mental health.
In a new interview set to air on ‘CBS Sunday Morning’, Meghan, 42, said: “Our kids are young… they’re three and five. They’re amazing.
“But all you want to do as parents is protect them.”
She continued: “So, as we can see what’s happening in the online space, we know that there’s a lot of work to be done there, and we’re just happy to be able to be a part of change for good.”
Host Jane Pauley said: “You hope that when your children ask for help, someone, you know, is there to give it.”
Referring to deaths linked to online bullying, Harry, 39, replied: “If you know how to help.
“At this point, we’ve got to the stage where almost every parent needs to be a first responder.
And even the best first responders in the world wouldn’t be able to tell the signs…
“That is the terrifying piece of this.”
The interview – their first since their explosive 2021 tell-all with Oprah Winfrey – came as the couple were revealed to be embarking on a tour of Colombia later this year, where they will help to set out plans to tackle cyberbullying through their Archewell Foundation.
Vice President of Colombia Francia Márquez said: “I am pleased to announce that Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have kindly accepted my invitation to visit our beautiful country.
“During their trip, The Duke and Duchess will join me in visiting Bogotá, as well as the Caribbean and Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali.
“In these vibrant locations, they will have the exceptional opportunity to engage with leaders, youth, and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress.
“Their visit comes at a particularly significant time, as it precedes the first Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children, to be held in Colombia this November.
“The Archewell Foundation, founded by The Duke and Duchess, is renowned for its global leadership in fostering a safer online environment.
“The forthcoming conference will unveil a comprehensive framework for creating safer physical and digital spaces, tackling issues such as cyberbullying, online exploitation, and the mental health impacts of these threats.
“It will offer actionable solutions and commitments for countries around the world.”
The tour will follow their three-day visit to Nigeria in May.

OHMYGOSSIP — Jamie Lee Curtis has apologised for her dig at the MCU.
The 65-year-old actress was unimpressed by the comic book movie franchise – which will kick off Phase 6 with the release of ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ – and labelled it “bad” when asked during the San Diego Comic-Con, but she has since spoken to the franchise’s head producer and vowed to no longer “compete” for attention online.
She wrote on X: “My comments about Marvel were stupid and I will do better. I’ve reached out to Kevin Feige and will no longer play in that mud slinging sandbox of competition we call the internet nor will I engage in the toilet paper promotion or game play that is designed for clicks not content or conversation. (sic)”
In recent years, the ‘Freaky Friday’ star has complained about the state of the franchise openly on social media.
She previously compared ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ unfavourably to her own movie ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’, for which she won an Oscar.
Jamie wrote on X, formerly Twitter, in 2022: “Is it JUST me? Does it seem STRANGE that our tiny movie that could and did and continues to do ##1movieinamerica and is TRULY MARVELOUS, out marvels any Marvel movie they put out there @everythingeverywheremovie has a Marvel movie coming out with a copycat poster? Is this one of those Internet feuds?(sic)”
She later wrote of her own film: “MARVELOUS! It has a deep BEATING heart and BRILLIANT visual treats, EXTRAORDINARY performances and FANTASTIC BEASTLY FIGHT SCENES…… AND it COST LESS than the ENTIRE craft service budget on Doctor Strange and/or any other Marvel movie. (sic)”

The 31-year-old rapper is expecting her third baby with her estranged husband – with whom she already has Kulture, six, and two-year-old Wave – but announced on Wednesday (01.08.24) that she has filed for divorce, and a close friend has claimed that she is just “excited” about her pregnancy and career going forward.
The insider told People: “It wasn’t like, ‘Oh, she woke up one day, some incident happened, and this was it.’ She’s been very calm about everything, and she’s focused on her kids.
“She is excited about this new baby, and she’s recording, so everything with her is actually pretty good.”
The ‘WAP’ hitmaker first got together with Offset in 2017 and the pair secretly married later that year but have split up several times and reconciled several times over the years.
Friends are hopeful that this time, the Grammy Award-winning star will just be able to “enjoy [her] life” and the major success of her career.
The source said: “We’ve seen them break up, get back together, break up, get back together, and it’s like we just want her to stick to her decision and just enjoy her life. You’re so successful. You’ve come so far in your career, just enjoy your life.”
At the time the divorce filing was announced, a rep insisted that the split had been a “long time coming” and was not based on any sudden scandal.
A rep said: “It’s not based on cheating rumours, but rather has been a long time coming.”
As she told the world that she was expecting her third baby, Cardi proclaimed that she was “grateful” to be able to embrace a new beginning amid the ending of her marriage.
She wrote on X: “With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power! Reminded me that I can have it all!
“You’ve reminded me that I never have to choose between life, love, and my passion! I love you so much and can not wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do! It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through! (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Sam Asghari is “focused” on his career and quipped he only has time for his “high maintenance” pet pooch.
Britney Spears’ ex-husband is “putting all of my mindset” towards his acting and producing career and is not looking to date anyone. His admission comes a year on from the 30-year-old fitness trainer’s split from the 42-year-old pop idol after their brief marriage and five-year relationship.
He told Us Weekly: “Right now, I’m dating a very high-maintenance girl and, you know, I have to get her nails done and take her to the dog park and feed her good food and get her really nice treats. That is what I’m focused on at the moment.
“And [a] career is something that’s going to require 100 per cent of your time, and I’m really putting all that effort and putting all of my mindset towards acting … [and] producing career.”
The ambitious actor insisted: “It deserves that type of work ethic, and watching my sisters do such an amazing thing at pursuing their dreams makes me inspired. Watching them work 100 per cent makes me realise it’s going to take 100-and-something per cent to reach my goals.”
The ‘Jackpot’ star will always be grateful for the life lessons dating the ‘Toxic’ hitmaker taught him.
He told Us Weekly: “When you’re in a relationship or any experiences that are major in your life, you learn so much.
“It’s definitely something that I learned so much from the past, and that’s something that was a college crash course on how cruel some people in Hollywood could be.”
And he has no bad things to say about their time together.
Sam continued: “I only celebrate the past.
“I always like to appreciate the past, celebrate the past and that’s just a big part of me. I’m always going to be that type of person.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Damon is “cool” with the idea of being an overprotective dad.
The 53-year-old actor has Isabella, 18, Gia, 15, and Stella, with his wife Luciana Barroso – who also has a daughter from a previous relationship – and when it comes to his daughters’ dating lives, he only wants to “build self-esteem” but has no qualms about “playing up” to the age-old nature of being an overbearing father.
Speaking on SiriusXM, he told Andy Cohen: “Oh, man. I don’t know. I wouldn’t deign to give anybody advice other than I just try to listen and be helpful. I mean, ultimately, it’s about building self-esteem.
“I’m fine. I’m cool with [being an overprotective dad]. You know what I mean. That’s like an old trope that I think people, you know, like to play up. You know, dads like to joke about it amongst each other I think, sometimes, but no.
“You know, at least, our [25-year-old] has, you know, she’s got this incredible boyfriend who Lucy and I just love. We adore the guy and to see that she’s making those kinds of choices, really, it’s as good as it gets.”
The ‘Instigators’ star recently admitted that he was coming to terms with the fact that his youngest was gearing up to leave home as he warned new parents that the life-change comes around so fast.
He told E! News: I called my friends and asked them how they dealt with it. What happened to them?
“It’s a lot. It’s a surreal kind of time and the way it operates in your life, the older you get, because it just feels like I was holding her yesterday

OHMYGOSSIP — Cuba Gooding Jr. has been “dealing with accountability” for his sexual assault convictions.
The 56-year-old actor pleaded guilty to a 2018 incident in which he touched a waitress in a nightclub without consent and after complying with the terms of a conditional plea agreement has admitted that he is still “passionate” about what he does amid a career comeback with his new Christian-themed film ‘The Firing Squad.’
He told US TV show ‘Extra’: “It’s one of those things where I know that I’m here for a reason, and I know that and as long as I do what I do and I’m good at what I do and I’m passionate about what I do, God’s will be done. We are dealing with accountability or what is appropriate, what is accessible. I’ve walked my journey and understood that there are things and there’s people and reactions in society that are shifting…
“Life is about adjusting… People feel that I’m accessible to them, so I come in contact with all kinds of people, from people who adore you to people who are offended by you, people who feel you’re aggressive. And you have to learn that as you walk on this path, you must stay neutral.”
The ‘Boyz n the Hood’ star also noted that he has always had to make sure of his “intention” in life because, ultimately, he is “accountable” for his actions in the past and he is aware that he is not in control of what others might say about him.
He added: “When people interpret what’s going on with you or what you’re being exposed to, you have to make sure that you know your intention. You have to be accountable for your own actions, and I have been. I have been. People have spoken positive and negative, but I can’t control that.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Halle Berry has accused her ex-husband of refusing to attend co-parenting therapy.
The ‘Union’ actress has failed in a bid to have a court to intervene in the agreement she has with Olivier Martinez – who she split from in 2015 after two years of marriage – over their nine-year-old son after alleging he hasn’t been attending sessions with the co-parenting coach to “resolve disputes and conflicts between them in an effort to successfully co-parent”.
In a filing submitted to the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County obtained by People magazine earlier this week, the 57-year-old star accused her former spouse of having “unilaterally terminated” the meetings without telling her or the coach and argued he had “chosen to repeatedly violate agreements and court orders with careless regard”, which “harms” their son and their own “already strained relationship.”
Halle had asked the court to “enforce Olivier’s compliance” with the agreement by 29 July and have him be ordered to attend at least one more meeting before the end of last month and then continue with their previously-agreed schedule for August.
However, Judge Shelley Kaufman turned down the request on Thursday (01.08.24) dur to a “lack of exigent circumstances,” meaning she didn’t deem it to be an urgent or emergency matter.
The ‘Bruised’ star – who also has 16-year-old Nahla with former partner Gabriel Aubry – noted the pair had signed the agreement on 29 May and were supposed to complete individual sessions of therapy before beginning joint meetings, with the therapist then able to contact necessary third parties such as Maceo’s school and other therapists during the process.
She wrote: “None of that has occurred. In fact, not a single conjoint session has been scheduled and not a single third party has been contacted.”
Halle alleged the 58-year-old actor had taken “the summer off” and pushed back the sessions until September as he was returning to his native France in July and had arranged for his brother to visit him in Los Angeles over the following month.
The filing pointed out that the sessions are via Zoom, so it shouldn’t matter where either of them are in the world.
In addition, the ‘Kidnap’ actress alleged Olivier “refuses to complete the necessary paperwork that would allow the coparenting therapist to speak to necessary third parties” and suggested he had recommended the therapy classes as a tactic to “delay intervention at all costs” and “interfere with Halle’s relationship with Maceo without repercussion.”
Halle – who claimed she had tried to settle the matter personally before bringing it to the court – finalised her divorce from Olivier last August, with the pair agreeing to share joint legal custody of their son.
In addition, the actress agreed to hand over $8,000 a month in child support as well as “4.3% of any income she receives above $2,000,000” in additional maintenance.

OHMYGOSSIP — Tom Cruise will take part in an epic stunt to close the Paris Olympics.
The ‘Mission: Impossible’ actor will reportedly play a key role in the Closing Ceremony on 11 August to pass the flag to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games, and has already pre-recorded part of the visual spectacular.
Sources told TMZ that Tom will abseil down from the top of Stade de France, landing on the stadium field while carrying the official Olympic flag, before the televised broadcast then cuts to a previously-recorded film, with the first two minutes depicting the 62-year-old actor’s flight to the US before skydiving down to the Hollywood sign.
The film will then show Tom passing the flag on to other Olympians, including a cyclist, a volleyball player and a skateboarder as they travel through the next Games’ host city.
The Los Angeles portion of the stunt was filmed on a Saturday morning in March and insiders admitted they had expected the ‘Top Gun’ star to be spotted and leak the information before now.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, an early plan involved a large party at Will Rogers State Beach that would see the handover of the Olympic flag, but it was scrapped due to police concerns over an extended closure of the Pacific Coast Highway, and challenges relating to obtaining the necessary permits from the California Coastal Commission.
Logistics for the French half of the stunt are still being arranged and it may be that the ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ star uses a stunt double for the actual abseil.
Tom is said to have been the driving force behind the spectacle and approached the International Olympic Committee himself about doing a series of stunts to bring the Paris and Los Angeles Games together.
In 2004, the ‘Vanilla Sky’ actor helped carry the torch through LA as part of a global relay ahead of the Athens Olympics.

OHMYGOSSIP — John Mayer has taught himself to play guitar with three fingers after suffering an injury.
The ‘Gravity’ hitmaker’s left index finger has been left unusable for the foreseeable future after he damaged the digit in the door of his truck, but he was determined not to let down fans who want to see him at Dead + Company’s residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas this month so he’s taken the time to amend his playing and he’s now feeling confident.
Sharing a photo of his injured finger, he wrote on Instagram: “Last Thursday I injured my left index finger (truck door), and the first thing that went through my mind was ‘I really need that finger in a week.’
“I need all my fingers, but the left index is the team captain of my fretting hand. It will heal just fine, but will be out of commission for a while. In the meantime, I have spent every day practicing guitar using the other three fingers and I think I have it sounding pretty good!”
The 46-year-old musician apologised for his “misadventure” but he is looking forward to the she shows.
He added: “I’ve always felt like every part of me belongs to these shows, and it’s my responsibility to return to the stage each night without screwing up the equipment, and I’m sorry for the misadventure here. The power of the music and the love for these shows will prevail! See ya tonight.”
John’s close friend Andy Cohen is among those set to see the guitarist in action this weekend.
He commented: “See you this weekend. Gonna be GREAT.”
The band performs a different setlist for each night of the residency, so John will have had to work extra hard to get up to speed without the use of his index finger.
