Kevin Bacon: ‘Mortality doesn’t scare me’

OHMYGOSSIP — Kevin Bacon isn’t scared of death.
The 65-year-old actor insisted he doesn’t “think about it that much” but admitted things could be different when he gets older.
He told The Observer magazine: “At this point, mortality doesn’t scare me. Check back in with me when I’m on my deathbed… but I don’t think about it that much. Only every once in a while.”
However, one recent incident made him consider the “mortality thing”, when his and wife Kyra Sedgwick’s dog died last year.
He said: “We looked at each other. And I went, ‘Let’s do the maths here. I don’t think I’m ready for another 15 years of picking up s***.’ That’s the only time I’ve thought about the mortality thing. Related to an animal.”
Kevin and Kyra, 58, have been married since 1988 and he believes communication is key to their long-lasting union.
He said: “We’re pretty good at leaving our work at the office. The thing about it is, Kyra’s the type of person who would be very clear if her emotional needs weren’t being met in some sort of way. If the core piece of our love and our marriage was getting short shrift, she would bring it up in a heartbeat. And we would work through it.”
The pair have children Sosie, 32, and Travis, 35, together and Kevin admitted he and Kyra will never stop worrying about their kids.
He said: “I’m always thinking about ’em. We kinda had this idea, both Kyra and I, that when they got to 18 we’d say to ourselves: ‘All good!’ That’s not really what happens.”

Family pay tribute to ‘troubled soul’ Shifty Shellshock

OHMYGOSSIP — The family of Crazy Town’s Shifty Shellshock have paid tribute to him following his shocking death.
The ‘Butterfly’ hitmaker – whose birth name was Seth Binzer – passed away on June 24, at the age of 49, from an overdose and his family called him a “troubled soul with a heart of gold”.
They said in a statement obtained by The Sun newspaper: “To Seth, the world was art, he loved every part of it, from music and fashion to graffiti, skateboarding and his hometown of Los Angeles.
“He loved his three boys more than anything, and his dedication to his music and fans never wavered.
“Seth struggled with addiction throughout his life, he did so on a very public platform which was particularly challenging.
“God knows he tried so hard to beat his demons but sadly he lost his battle.
“Our hearts are shattered by his loss. Seth’s larger-than-life presence touched so many.
“Seth was a troubled soul but he was a beautiful one and he had a heart of gold.
“He will live on through his 3 sons who were his proudest accomplishments. Halo Gage and Phoenix.”
Crazy Town’s manager, Howie Hubberman, previously revealed that drugs played a role in Seth’s death.
He told PEOPLE: “Seth Binzer, after struggling with addiction and Crazy Town’s rapid success with ‘Butterfly,’ never was able to reach out on a more successful level to deal with his addictions. We all tried, but ultimately we all failed, or Shifty would still be here.
“The cause of death was a combination of prescription drugs and street purchased drugs. Shifty was a friend and really wanted to get himself fixed — unfortunately no one had the exact tools to do this, myself included.”
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner has not yet listed a cause of death for the singer, as it is waiting for the return of the toxicology report.
Seth shared Halo with first wife Melissa Clark, Gage with ex Tracy Selor and Phoenix with British model Jasmine Lennard.

The 29-year-old actress was left devastated after the sudden demise of her beloved pooch and she has reportedly hired a legal team to investigate what happened the dog, TMZ reports.

Taylor Swift obsessed with Simone Biles’ US Olympic Gymnastics Trials routine

OHMYGOSSIP — Taylor Swift has watched Simone Biles’ US Olympic Gymnastics Trials routine “so many times”.
The singer, 34, paid tribute to the athlete, 27, after she used Taylor’s ‘Ready for It’ track to soundtrack the start of her floor routine during day two of the 2024 try-outs.
She said on X after a clip of Simone’s full routine was shared by the NBC Olympics and Paralympics: “Watched this so many times and still unready. “She’s ready for it tho (three hand-clapping, gold medal, US flag and red heart emojis.)”
Simone started her routine to Taylor’s tune from her 2017 album ‘Reputation’ while performing a triple-double – which, according to the commentator in the clip is the “hardest tumbling pass in the world”.
The gymnast made history with the move when she became the first woman to do it during the US Gymnastics Championships in Kansas City, Missouri, in 2019.
Simone also ended her routine with Travis Scott’s ‘Delresto (Echoes)’ track, which features Beyoncé.
Her performance in the event helped her finish in first place during the first half of the women’s qualifying.
Simone has suffered setbacks during the beam event at the Target Center in Minneapolis – but her routines on the floor, the bars and vault helped her finish the first half of the women’s qualifying in first place.
Taylor has been continuing to astound fans during the European leg of her ‘Eras Tour’, and is set to keep playing Dublin, Ireland, this week.
On Saturday (29.06.24), the singer told the audience at the city’s Aviva Stadium her ‘Folklore’ had a strong connection to Ireland.
She added: “Folklore in general, it just belongs in Ireland. How I imagined the album world looking (was like) Ireland.
“Storytelling with lots of different characters – you guys have that on lock, too. “That’s very Irish, the storytelling.”
After Dublin she is due to play Amsterdam, where she is scheduled to perform three shows on Thursday (04.07.24), Friday and Saturday before taking her tour to Germany.

Katherine Jenkins refuses to speak for 24 hours before gigs

OHMYGOSSIP — Katherine Jenkins refuses to speak for a day before her gigs.
The 44-year-old singer, who has children Aaliay Reign, eight, and six-year-old Xander Robert Selwyn with her husband of 10 years Andrew Levitas, 46, says she won’t utter a sound for 24 hours ahead of shows to preserve her voice – even if it means being unable to control her kids.
She told The Times: “I don’t have alcohol, I drink loads of water and I stop going to noisy places so I don’t overuse my voice. I want to stay focused.
“In the 24 hours before the show I won’t speak at all. The voice is a muscle and when you whisper, you’re still vibrating the cords and not getting the rest.
“I’ve got a six-year-old and an eight-year-old, and they find it hilarious that they can do whatever they like to mummy and I can’t speak back, so the house becomes a big game of charades.”
Katherine also says she has a series of superstitions before concerts, adding: “I do things in a certain order, silly things like putting my right shoe on before my left.
“I always stop by myself for a little minute and I say a prayer. I ask God and my dad to bless my voice and help me to remember my words, more of a comfort than a necessity.”
Katherine’s father was killed by lung cancer aged 70 when she was 15, and the Times profile on the singer says mention of it and the fact her interviewer’s dad died when they were 12 made her burst into tears.
She said: “Life can go either way. It can be the reason that things unravel, or like in my case, my dad became a driving force.
“I’m trying not to cry – you know it’s so silly because it’s so long ago and now and again it just catches me.
“I’ve been without my dad longer than I was with him yet I think about him every day, every time I sing. I speak to him.
“He informs all my musical choices because if you’ve had loss, you’re more drawn to emotional music. Music has helped me.”
She added about how the disease that claimed her father’s life has afflicted her relatives and husband: “Cancer is a big thing in our family. Andrew also lost his dad to cancer, I lost a best friend to cancer when she was just 32, my mother worked in breast cancer screening, my sister worked for Macmillan.
“At school my best friend’s mum passed away to cancer within six months of me losing my dad.”

Kiefer Sutherland regrets eating goldfish on ‘dare’ from Kevin Bacon

OHMYGOSSIP — Kiefer Sutherland regrets eating a goldfish on a “dare” from Kevin Bacon.
The former wildman, 57, said he gobbled the animal while co-starring with Kevin, 65, on the 1990 film ‘Flatliners’, which saw a group of medical students bring back a demon by making themselves temporarily dead to see if there is an afterlife.
Kiefer told The Times: “I regret eating a goldfish on a dare from Kevin Bacon. “We were shooting the film Flatliners. The three remaining fish looked at me and would scatter any time I got near the aquarium.
“I didn’t realise that when you swallow something your whole throat constricts, so you can hear the back break.”
Kiefer – who has also been touring with his band as well as pursuing acting – added his current food tastes include an obsessions with pastries from the UK’s Greggs bakery chain.
He said: “Greggs is popular with Yanks and Canadians. I like a sausage roll. “My band is from the States and, when we first toured here, the first stop they would make before we even got to the hotel would be a Greggs.
“I think some of them only did the tour because they knew they were going to get a Greggs.”
Kiefer also told how he has only recently got into food as he used to wish there was a pill that could replace meals.
He went on: “I remember thinking, ‘I wish they just had a pill for food’. I had a very limited palate in my twenties.
“I ate food just as a necessity, mainly because I was very busy and having to eat three meals a day seemed like a waste of time.
“I managed to live on chicken breast with vegetables for about a decade. “Learning to cook has opened up food for me.”

Glastonbury ‘cancelled’ for 2026

OHMYGOSSIP — Glastonbury festival has been cancelled for 2026.
Bosses of the event at Worthy Farm, Somerset, confirmed on Sunday (30.06.24) it will not go ahead next summer as it will be one of its traditional “fallow” years to allow the land to recover from the thousands of fans who descend there for the music extravaganza.
Organiser Emily Eavis, 44, whose farmer father Michael, 88, started the festival in 1970, told The Sun: “(It will) give the land a rest. The festival before a fallow year is always a fun one to plan, because you almost have to fit two years into one.
“We’re already in talks with some acts for it. It’s exciting!”
Glastonbury’s fallow years are usually every fifth summer, with its last one in 2018 before it returned the following year.
Sunday (30.06.24) saw the final day of this year’s even – with Shania Twain, 58, performing in its coveted Legends Slot before a closing headline act by 34-year-old SZA – born Solána Imani Rowe – on the Pyramid Stage.
Emily added about this year’s event: “I really would like to say thank you to everyone who’s made this year so special.
“It’s got to be the best one yet. Every single one of our vast, incredible crew is crucial to making this event work.
“And, of course, it simply wouldn’t exist without the participation of the kind, brilliant, respectful festivalgoers.
“I think people here show a better way to live, and that they do take a little bit of that back to the outside world with them.
“It honestly restores your faith in humanity.”
Coldplay’s Saturday (29.06.24) night set saw them bring on Parkinson’s-battling Michael J Fox, 63, in a wheelchair to tell him as he held a guitar he was the reason they became a band – in an apparent reference to his guitar playing in ‘Back to the Future’.
Dua Lipa played the Pyramid Stage the previous night and revealed to a 100,000-strong crowd: “I’ve written this moment down and wished for it and dreamt of it and worked so hard.”

Billy Ray Cyrus’ estranged wife Firerose accuses him of forcing her to live by ‘very strict rules’

OHMYGOSSIP — Billy Ray Cyrus’ estranged wife Firerose says he forced her to live by “very strict rules”.
The 62-year-old ‘Achy Breaky Heart’ performer filed for divorce from the musician, 37, after nearly seven months of marriage in May, citing irreconcilable differences and inappropriate marital conduct as reason for the split.
Firerose has now told Page Six their marriage was characterised by him continually screamed at her and making her feel like a prisoner at their remote farm just outside Nashville.
She said: “Billy had very strict rules. I didn’t have a car. I was only allowed to go to the local chiropractor and allowed once a month to get my nails done… it was systematic isolation and I couldn’t find the courage to leave.
“If I had to send a text, I had to read it out to him for permission. It was the same for email.”
Firerose added the stress became so bad she passed out two days before their wedding last October and was taken to the hospital.
She also claimed Billy Ray would give her the silent treatment for hours and sometimes days, adding: “I withdrew… I was afraid to talk.”
Despite her claims, court documents filed in Tennessee earlier this month showed Billy Ray claims he was the one “physically”, verbally and emotionally abused by his ex – who was born Johanna Rose Hodges.
He also uses the filing to deny “mind boggling” allegations it was him who was abusive to Firerose.
The papers state: “While the Plaintiff would acknowledge that he was certainly vocal, frustrated and angry with the Defendant in May 2024, it is the plaintiff who, in fact, has been abused.
“Not only verbally and emotionally by the Defendant, but PHYSICALLY abused by Defendant.”
In an affidavit, Billy Ray’s manager Scott Adkins says he witnessed the abuse toward the singer.
Firerose filed legal papers on 14 July saying Billy Ray filed for divorce in May one day before she was set to undergo a preventative double mastectomy.
The Australian says in her complaint she was diagnosed as a carrier of the BRCA1 gene mutation in early 2020 and her doctors “highly recommended” she undergo the procedure and a breast reconstruction in March, with the singer scheduling her first surgery for 24 May.

Justin Timberlake mocked legal woes during latest gig

OHMYGOSSIP — Justin Timberlake mocked his legal woes during his latest concert.
The ‘Cry Me a River’ singer, 43, was pulled over almost two weeks ago in Sag Harbor, New York, and charged with one count of driving while under the influence and two citations for allegedly running a stop sign and failure to stay in lane.
He told the crowd at TD Garden in Boston on Saturday (29.06.24): “So uh, is there anyone here tonight that is driving and… no I’m just kidding.”
Justin’s remark was captured in fan footage of his gig shared on X.
‘The Social Network’ singer was on the latest stop of his ‘Forget Tomorrow World Tour’ when he alluded to his June 18 DWI arrest.
After the audience erupted in laughter, the ‘SexyBack” singer continued: “Is there anyone here tonight, that it’s your first time here to the show? Is there anybody here that you’ve been to one, two, three, maybe four of our shows?
“For all of you that it’s your first time tonight – on a serious note – I hope that you feel the fellowship and the love.”
According to an arrest report in Justin’s DWI case, an officer said they saw the performer “fail to keep on the right side of the roadway” and drive through a stop sign.
After a traffic stop, the cop claimed the singer “performed poorly on all standardised field sobriety tests.”
Page Six was also told he repeatedly refused to take a breathalyser test.
The arrest report also states the singer told authorities: “I had one martini and I followed my friends home.”
Justin’s next court date in the case is 26 July, but he is not required to attend in person.
After his arrest, the singer’s attorney Edward Burke Jr said: “Mr Burke looks forward to vigorously defending Mr Timberlake against these allegations.
“He will have a lot to say at the appropriate time. He is currently awaiting full discovery from the DA’s office.”

Diplo accused of distributing revenge porn

OHMYGOSSIP — DJ Diplo has been accused of distributing revenge porn.
The musician, 45, born Thomas Wesley Pentz, is facing the accusation in a lawsuit filed in California on Thursday (27.06.24) that has now come to light.
A woman known only as Jane Doe is suing the Grammy-winning producer for recording and distributing sexual images and videos of her without her consent to third parties, according to court documents.
Papers seen by Page Six show the woman, based in New York, claims to have been involved in a physical relationship with Diplo.
They state it started in June 2016 after they originally began messaging each other sexually explicit content on Snapchat in April of that year, and she allegedly their relationship ended in 2023.
Diplo’s accuser says she “made it known that she did not want (him) recording them engaging in sexual activities without her explicit consent, nor did she want him to distribute images and/or videos to third parties and never gave him consent to do so”.
But in November 2023, the woman claimed she was contacted by a third party who said she received material showing her and the DJ having sex.
Jane Doe was allegedly told the person received the pornographic content, which showed her “genitals, buttocks, and face” on 14 October, 2018, with the material allegedly sent over Snapchat.
After their discussion, the unnamed individual who contacted Jane Doe reportedly filed a police report, and the accuser claimed the New York Police Department “issued a warrant for Defendant Diplo’s arrest for dissemination of intimate images and/or videos depicting” her.
Jane Doe is seeking up to $150,000 in damages.
Diplo’s lawyer Bryan Freedman dismissed the suit in a statement to Page Six, saying: “In every case where there has been an allegation of improper conduct made against Wes, the result has been either an immediate dismissal of a bogus lawsuit coupled with an apology, a court-ordered award for Wes in excess of $1.2 million, or the slow demise of an obvious shakedown attempt that has gone absolutely nowhere.
“Time and again, Wes has been targeted by a group of untrustworthy individuals and their unscrupulous lawyers, cobbling together falsehoods in search of a meritless payday.
“This suit seems to be just more of the same, which is why we have no reason to believe that this will end any differently than all the others.”
But Jane Doe’s attorney Micha Liberty from Liberty Law told Page Six: “Diplo’s actions represent a severe abuse of power and a blatant disregard for human dignity. It is imperative that we, as a society, condemn such actions and hold perpetrators accountable.”
Diplo was previously accused of recording and distributing sexually explicit videos without the other party’s knowledge or permission.
Another unnamed woman accused the DJ of doing so, and knowingly infecting her with chlamydia, in 2021.
He denied the accusations and claimed the lawsuit was brought on by a fan-turned-stalker.
Diplo also claimed any sexual encounters they had were “consensual.”
Before that, he was accused of sexually assaulting Marchel Auguste in 2020 as well as recording their sexual encounters without her consent and she was successful in getting a temporary restraining order against him.
She is still currently pursuing legal action against him for sexual battery, gender violence, battery, assault, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress and more.
In 2020, rapper Azealia Banks, 33, claimed Diplo groomed her and had sex with her while she was 17 and he was in his 30s.

Kanye West’s wife accused of sending adult videos to an employee ‘that were accessible to minors’

OHMYGOSSIP — Kanye West’s wife is being accused of sending adult videos to an employee that were accessible to minors.
The scandal-plagued rapper, 47, was infamously dumped from a string of big-brand deals in the wake of his anti-Semitic outbursts and has been sued by a string of his former employees, and he and his former chief of staff Milo Yiannopoulos, 39, as defendants in the latest lawsuit against him.
In April, Kanye announced he was launching an adult film biz called ‘Yeezy Porn’ and his partner Bianca Censori, 29, is said to have sent one worker a file-sharing link containing hardcore sexual activity.
The suit added minors working on the project were not shielded from viewing the adult videos as they developed Kany’s pornography app – though Bianca is not named as a defendant in the case.
Legal papers seen by TMZ also allege Kanye and his associates engaged in “forced labour and cruel inhuman, or degrading treatment” towards employees when they decided to launch the YZYVSN streaming service app to rival the likes of Qobuz, Tidal, Spotify and Apple Music – and called workers “new slaves”.
TMZ reported the alleged offences started in spring when Kanye and Milo are said to have hired an international developer group comprised of several black members, which included underage teens as young as 14.
The documents say the employees mostly worked remotely, staying in “constant communication with Kanye, Milo and their team by using digital and online communication applications such as Discord, Zoom and Slack”.
They added that in April, Milo promised to pay $120,000 to the developer group after they completed the app if they agreed to the work conditions and didn’t complain.
But things quickly went downhill … the suit says Ye ordered all employees to sign non-disclosure agreements, threatening to fire the minors and refusing to pay them if they didn’t.
TMZ said the suit added: “Minor developers were also required to sign ‘volunteer’ agreements.”
In group chats, white managers in the business are accused of using harassing language toward staff in regards to their age, race, gender, sexual orientation and national origin.
The documents state Milo once sent a chat message with a black or brown skin emoji to an African American team member, while calling a younger worker a “school shooter”.
Employees were also allegedly bullied into working long hours through the night without pay or sleep.
The suit is asking for damages for unpaid wages and overtime pay, as well as emotional distress.

Despite a string of high-profile TV roles including on ‘Ripper Street’ alongside her husband and as DS Niamh McGovern in the BBC’s ‘Bloodlands’, Charlene has admitted she lives with an “existential terror” her acting work will dry up.
She told The Sun: “I still live with the existential terror and dread it will go away.
“And everybody is like, ‘’Are you taking time off?’’ and I am taking time going, ‘Don’t go away though’.
“You feel nervous taking time off because you’re like, ‘’Will that be it then?’ “You’re going, ‘I only wanted a few weeks lads, and it’s a year later. What’s the saying? ‘You don’t retire, the industry retires you’.”

She said in 2021: “Did I ever think I’d be vacationing with my ex-husband, boyfriend, and all three kiddos? Probably not.
“But I feel SO lucky that we’re in a place where this feels not only doable, but fun too!”
Kyle added his support to Eva and Ian when the couple went public with their romance earlier that same year after they met at the chef’s restaurant, saying on Instagram he felt “happy for her.”

Eddie Murphy thanks God he refused cocaine offered to him by John Belushi and Robin Williams

OHMYGOSSIP — Eddie Murphy thinks “God was looking over” him when he refused cocaine offered to him by the late comics John Belushi and Robin Williams.
The ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ actor, 63, soared to fame in the 1980s at the height of the pair’s drug addictions and says he is grateful he didn’t give in to the same temptations that killed John and contributed to Robin’s depression battle.
Father-of-10 Eddie told ‘The Interview’ podcast: “I remember I was 19, I went to the Blues Bar. It was me, Belushi and Robin Williams.
“They start doing coke, and I was like, ‘No, I’m cool’.
“I wasn’t taking some moral stance. I just wasn’t interested in it. To not have the desire or the curiosity, I’d say that’s providence.
“God was looking over me in that moment.”
Eddie added the tragic rise and fall of stars including the late Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley, as well as John and Robin, were “cautionary tales”.
John was killed by a heroin overdose at the age of 33 in 1982, while Robin took his life in 2014 aged 63 after years of drug and drink addictions.
Michael was also killed aged 50 in 2009 by a tranquiliser overdose, while Elvis was found dead from a heart attack at 42 following years of prescription drug abuse.
Eddie added to the New York Times about the perils of fame: “When you get famous really young, especially a black artist, it’s like living in a minefield.
“Any moment something could happen that can undo everything. It was like, all of this stuff is going on, and I’m totally oblivious.
“Now, at this age, I can look back and be like, ‘Wow, I came through a minefield for 35 years’.
“How do you make it through a minefield for 35, 40 years? Something has to be looking over you.”

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs not dropped by powerhouse law firm due to Lady Gaga

OHMYGOSSIP — Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was not dropped by a powerhouse law firm due to pressure from Lady Gaga.
The embattled Bad Boy Records founder, 54, who is facing a string of sexual assault cases, is though to have been dumped at least eight weeks ago by Grubman, Shire, Meiselas and Sacks due to the nature and number of the allegations.
But the firm has now said a report that said their client Gaga, 38, was behind the move is false.
A spokesperson for the company told Page Six: “The decision to part ways with Mr Combs was proactively made by the partners in the firm a number of months ago as they felt it was the right thing to do.”
“The report that the decision was the result of client pressure just isn’t true.”
Along with Gaga, Grubman, Shire, Meiselas and Sacks represent some of the biggest names in entertainment.
On Friday (28.06.24) NewsNation reported the firm dropped Combs due to pressure from the ‘Poker Face’ singer.
The outlet said an insider told them: “Lady Gaga said she was leaving (the firm) if they didn’t drop Diddy. And she’s too big to lose.”
But a source who knows the singer, told Page Six: “That convo never happened.”
Several companies affiliated with Combs have parted ways with the disgraced rapper since he began facing lawsuits.
And the New York Post has revealed Mayor Eric Adams revoked Combs’ key to the city three weeks after CNN leaked a video of him physically assaulting ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, 37, in 2016 at a hotel.
He was also forced to step down as chairman and separate from Revolt TV, the media company he cofounded.
Diddy recently scrubbed his Instagram amid mounting allegations against him, including of the apology video he posted saying sorry after the footage of his assault on Cassie emerged.
He has left a bio on his account that tells his 9.9 million followers: “Listen to ‘The Love Album: Off the Grid’”, with a link to the Grammy nominated record.

‘The Kardashians’ star marked the milestone on Thursday (27.06.24) and she gathered her family and friends together on Saturday (29.06.24) for a lavish bash which was themed around country legend Dolly – featuring a “Khloewood” sign inspired by the singer’s Dollywood theme park – above the DJ booth as well as “Khlo$ Saloon” bar and a a mechanical bull.

The party included performances by Snoop Dogg, Warren G and Kurupt.
The party comes after Khloe previously admitted she felt excited about turning 40 because she is “shedding” her old life and embracing a “new version” of herself.
Khloe had been counting down the days until she starts the new decade because she sees it as a representation of a new era following a turbulent few years which included the breakdown of her relationship with boyfriend Tristan Thompson, the father of her two children.
Khloe told Grazia magazine: “I’m going to be 40 in June and I think most people are nervous or get weird about it and I am counting down the moments until that day.
“I feel like I’m shedding so much of my old life, an old version of me, and I’m so excited for this new version,’ she explains. ‘I know it’s so hugely clichéd to say it, but with age and experience comes wisdom, and that wisdom brings me more peace.”
