Lady Gaga: I didn't want to do David Bowie tribute

OHMYGOSSIP — Lady Gaga felt “uncomfortable” paying tribute to David Bowie at the Grammy Awards.
The 30-year-old pop star performed a heartfelt medley of the late singer’s hits at the awards show back in February, but has admitted she didn’t want to do it when she was first asked, because it was “so soon” after the ‘Jean Genie’ star’s death from cancer in January.
She said: “I really did not want to do it when they first called me because it was so soon after [Bowie’s death] and I felt very uncomfortable, but I did my very best to put together something that I hoped would be the showstopper of the night.”
The tribute hailed mixed reviews, not least from Duncan Jones – the only son of the ‘Space Oddity’ hitmaker – who posted a cryptic tweet after the performance in which he seemed to call Gaga “mentally confused”.
Duncan, 45, wrote: “”overexcited or irrational, typically as a result of infatuation or excessive enthusiasm; mentally confused.” Damn it! What IS that word!? (sic)”
The tweet was actually comprised of the Oxford English Dictionary’s definition of the word ‘gaga’.
Speaking in the latest issue of NME Magazine, the ‘Perfect Illusion’ singer admits that the comments by the BAFTA-winning filmmaker “hurt” her.
She told the publication: “Yeah. It did. It did hurt. But what are you going to do? I can’t… it’s his father, you know?”
But the Bowie tribute almost didn’t happen at all, as the ‘Bad Romance’ singer – who has recently released her new album ‘Joanne’ – revealed she almost quit the music industry after 2013’s ‘Artpop’.
She said: I was just having a really depressed time in my life where wasn’t able to see my own ability or my own talent.
“And when you lose grasp of those sorts of things, you can just spiral.
“But you know, to the world ‘quitting music’ means one thing and to me its means another. I meant to giving putting out music, as opposed to just doing it for myself, which what makes me really and truly happy.”

Mel B still hoping Victoria Beckham and Mel C will re-join The Spice Girls

OHMYGOSSIP — Mel B hasn’t given up hope that Victoria Beckham and Mel C will be part of The Spice Girls reunion.
Scary Spice is due to get together with Emma Bunton and Geri Horner – who is pregnant with her first child with her husband Christian Horner – next year for a proposed concert and potentially new music to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of their debut single ‘Wannabe’ and first album ‘Spice’.
Victoria and Mel C – known as Posh Spice and Sporty Spice in the band – have both publicly ruled themselves out of the reunion, with Posh wanting to focus on her fashion label and Sporty concentrating on her solo music.
However, Mel B has hinted there still maybe a chance the two members could be convinced to be part of the Spice Girls’ get-together.
Quizzed on what was happening with Victoria and Mel C on Australian breakfast TV show ‘Sunrise’, she quipped: “I killed the other two!”
Mel B, 41, then added: “Who said they’re not going to possibly be involved? Until it actually gets going, everything’s a bit up in the air.”
Admitting she is “bored” of the questions about the Spice Girls reunion, the 41-year-old singer insisted people just needed to wait for the plans to be finalised.
She said: “Until we’ve got something to announce, it’s the same old, same old. We are looking to do something, it’s just a case of when.”
The ‘I Want You Back ‘ hitmaker was less than impressed when hosts Kochie and Natalie Barr suggested her fellow ‘The X Factor Australia’ judge Iggy Azalea could join the group.
She exclaimed: “There’s only five Spice Girls in the whole entire world, and that’s it, so zip it!”
Mel B – full name Melanie Brown – was also quizzed during the TV appearance if there is any tension between her and Iggy on the panel of the talent show and she told the hosts to stop trying to cause trouble.
The outspoken star – who is also joined on the panel by Guy Sebastian and Adam Lambert – said: “She’s got a massive career, she’s highly successful, and we get on. I know you’re trying to get some rivalry between me and Iggy, but there isn’t any. Maybe there will be soon.”
At the end of the interview, Kochie wrapped things up by saying: “Don’t miss Mel on ‘X Factor’, 7:30 tonight – how will she and Iggy get on?”
And that prompted Mel B to jokingly storm off set as she said: “Oh gosh, what is all this? I’m leaving!”

Bill Murray receives Mark Twain Prize

OHMYGOSSIP — Bill Murray has received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humour.
The 66-year-old actor was honoured with the award at a ceremony at the Kennedy Centre in Washington D.C on Sunday (23.10.16), and admitted it was “hard” for him to listen to people saying nice things about him as it made him “suspicious”.
Speaking at the ceremony, the ‘Ghostbusters’ star joked: “My theme tonight is what is it like to be beloved. It’s hard to listen to all those people be nice to you. You just get so suspicious.
“There’s love, that’s what we came with, that’s what we go with. I love you, let’s try to repeat that to each other.
“When I can’t see it any longer, that’s when I’m coming down the steps.
“As much as I dreaded this, I really have to come back to this idea: There’s love. There’s love.”
Over the course of the ceremony, a number of stars paid tribute to the ‘Groundhog Day’ actor, in a show that lasted a full two hours.
‘Ghostbusters’ director Ivan Reitman said of Murray’s acting abilities: “As far as Bill is concerned, rehearsal is for mere mortals. Bill creates something new and wonderful on every take, and this keeps a director on his toes.”
Steve Martin – a previous winner of the Mark Twain prize and former co-star of Murray – quipped: “I’d like to say to you, welcome to the club. And to the Kennedy Centre, I’d like to say – really?”
Meanwhile, former talk host David Letterman recalled the time he told the Emmy Award winner that his son was about to be christened, and was sent Murray’s own christening gown as a gift.
He said: “That Saturday, my son, in Bill Murray’s christening gown, was christened at St. Ignatius in Manhattan, and we have this memory, we have this gift, we have this gesture for the rest of our lives.”
The ceremony was recorded and will broadcast on PBS Television on Friday (28.10.16)

Liam Payne parties in Las Vegas after girlfriend Cheryl finalises divorce

OHMYGOSSIP — Liam Payne has spent a night partying in Las Vegas after his girlfriend Cheryl Fernandez-Versini finalised her divorce.
The 23-year-old singer was spotted celebrating in the VIP section of a DJ Zedd show in Sin City over the weekend, just a few days after the ‘Only Human’ hitmaker’s separation from Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini was made official.
Taking to Instagram to post a selfie before the show, the One Direction singer wrote: “It’s about to get lit #vegas (sic)”
In another photo posted after the event, he wrote: “Great fun tonight impromptu sing along with my brother @zedd let’s get it #vegas (sic)”
The ‘History’ hitmaker – who is rumoured to be expecting his first child with Cheryl – was pictured at the event enjoying drinks and dancing along to the music whilst he chatted to the girls who stood around him.
The news of Liam’s party mood comes after Cheryl, 33, finalised her divorce from the French restaurateur after 18 months of marriage.
The former couple were granted a quickie divorce on Thursday (20.10.16) during a hearing that lasted just 14 seconds, after the judge at the Central Family Court in London handed them a decree nisi, which is a court order confirming the date on which a marriage will end.
A representative for Cheryl said in a statement: “Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini have today obtained Decree Nisi in their divorce proceedings. No further comment will be made and they ask for their privacy to be respected.”
The pair tied the knot in a secret ceremony on Macaroni Beach in Mustique in July 2014, just three months after they started dating, and the former Girls Aloud musician first announced their split in January this year.
The former ‘X Factor’ judge has been dating Liam – who has recently started recording material for his debut solo album – for almost a year, and fellow talent show judge Louis Walsh has said the pair will last.
He said previously: “Can I be honest with you about Cheryl? I think Liam and Cheryl are going to work… He’s a nice guy and he’s in love with her. He’ll make her happy.”

Kim Kardashian West apologises to Kris Jenner

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West has apologised to Kris Jenner for styling Caitlyn Jenner for the EPSY awards.
The 60-year-old matriarch branded her daughter as a “traitor” for agreeing to help her stepparent – who was known as Bruce while married to Kris before undergoing a gender transition – in Sunday’s (23.10.16) episode of ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’, so 35-year-old Kim quickly organised an extravagant way to say sorry.
In the footage of the original confrontation – which was first shown in a promotional clip ahead of the episode – Kris said: “Kim, you are a f***ing traitor. That you would have the nerve to go to help Caitlyn to pick a gown — like, what is going on?
“…You abandoned me! You’ve taken somebody else and said, ‘OK her feelings don’t matter.'”
To apologise for bringing her momager to tears over the event, Kim – who has two children of her own, three-year-old North, and Saint, 10 months, with husband Kanye West – and her sister Khloé Kardashian organised a lunch in the penthouse suite at the Beverley Wilshire Hotel where Kris’ favourite movie ‘Pretty Woman’ was shot.
Kim told her mother: “We wanted you to have a fun pampered day as an apology. I would just never want you to feel betrayed.”
Whilst Khloé added: “Kim wanted you to experience your favourite movie.”
Kris accepted her daughter’s apology, and explained that going through the divorce and Caitlyn’s subsequent transition has been “challenging”.
She said: “I don’t even have anybody to talk to that’s been through anything similar. I don’t really think about it day to day, but for some reason, that hit me the wrong way.
“Going through this whole process with Caitlyn has been challenging. I finally was feeling what I needed to feel for so many years.”
After the trio wrapped their lunch, Khloé and Kim decided to take their mother shopping to end their ‘Pretty Woman’-themed day.
Kris said: “You guys are the best. Thank you!”

Kim Kardashian West's 'talent' is getting people to like her

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West believes her “talent” is getting people to like her.
The 36-year-old ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star – who has been a key figure on the show since 2007 – thinks
having a “really successful” brand, which attracts a large number of supportive fans, is her greatest gift in life.
Speaking on TV show ’60 Minutes’ about her success, the ‘Selfish’ author said: “It is a talent to have a brand that’s really successful off of getting people to like you for you.
“I would think that has to involve some kind of talent, you know?”
And the star – who has three-year-old daughter North and 10-month-old son Saint with her rapper husband Kanye West – doesn’t think she’d be as successful as she is without the rise of social media sites such as Instagram, Twitter and SnapChat.
Asked if her fame could exist without social media, she added: “Not in this way. I totally attribute my career to social media.”
Kim – who endured a traumatic ordeal earlier this month when she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris, France, during Paris Fashion Week – believes there are far more positive things happening in her life, which outweigh the negative.
She explained in an interview conducted before the robbery: “I do believe that the pros in my situation and my lifestyle have been more beneficial than the negative things.”
Although Kim has a more positive outlook, her older sister Kourtney has revealed her sibling is “not doing great” after the incident, which saw $10 million worth of jewellery taken from her room at the Hotel de Pourtalès.
Speaking previously, the 37 year old said: “She’s not doing great. I think we’re all really still shaken up and I just – you know, I think she has a big supportive family and I know that all the traumatic things that we’ve been through, we get through them together as a family.”

Jack Osbourne feeling good about MS treatment

OHMYGOSSIP — Jack Osbourne is “feeling good” about his multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment plan.
The 30-year-old television personality was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS in 2012, a disease which targets the nerve cells in the brain and spine, and disrupts the functionality of the nervous system.
Now, ‘The Osbournes’ star has said he’s “doing really well” now that he’s on a treatment plan that he can stick to.
He said: “I’m doing really well right now, which is awesome, always good news. That’s all I can really ask for at the moment. I’m feeling good, I’m taking care of myself, I’m sticking to my treatment plan, so things are good.”
And the star – who has two daughters, four-year-old Pearl and 16-month-old Andy, with wife Lisa – says the birth of Pearl helped him deal with his diagnosis.
He added: “It’s weird, because I got diagnosed with MS three weeks before my oldest daughter was born. So there was a huge lifestyle change anyway and then you add to it. [My daughter] shifted the focus, which I think is good.”
Since being diagnosed with the disease, Jack – who is currently starring in travel show ‘Ozzy and Jack’s World Detour’ with his father Ozzy Osbourne – has set up a website called ‘You Don’t Know Jack About MS’, in which he aims to give people “a better understanding” about the disease.
Speaking to People magazine, he explained: “The whole point of ‘You Don’t Know Jack About MS’ was to create a destination website for people to go and just learn the broad strokes about MS. What is it, how does it affect people, and cut through a lot of the noise that the internet tends to be full of. Here’s the facts, it’s easy to digest.
“But I don’t want the focus to be on me. I know it’s called that, and I’m hosting it, but I want the focus to be about the disease and kind of giving people a little bit of hope, and a better understanding about what it is.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Meghan Trainor and Daryl Sabara were set up by their mutual friend Chloe Grace Moretz.
The ‘Me Too’ singer was excited when her actress pal told her about the “really nice” guy she knew and urged her to arrange a date between her and the ‘Spy Kids’ actor.

“And she’s like, ‘You guys have to meet.’ And we did. He’s great!”
Daryl, 24, has been accompanying Meghan on her ‘Untouchable’ tour and despite their romance still only being in the early stages, the 22-year-old star is thrilled they have “travelled the world together already in just a short amount of time.”
The ‘All About that Bass’ star also gushed about Michael Buble, after she and Harry Styles recently co-wrote a song, ‘Someday’, for his new album ‘Nobody But Me’ as she jumped at the chance to work with the Canadian crooner.
She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “Working with Michael is incredible. He’s one of the nicest [people] I’ve ever met.
“He called me, and I was on a shoot, and he was like, ‘I would love you to sing with me.” And I was like, ‘That’s only a dream of mine!’
“I’ve listened to him forever and to have him say that was incredible.”
Michael recently praised Meghan as being “so talented”.
He gushed: “It’s the first time I’ve had an original song on a record that I didn’t write.
“I didn’t know Meghan but I’d met Harry and really liked him. They wrote a great song called ‘Someday’.
“I liked it so much that I called her minutes later then met her on FaceTime.
“Three weeks later, the most talented 21-year-old kid in the world showed up in the studio with her mom and dad. And she was wearing a teddy bear onesie that Ariana Grande had bought for her. She was awesome.
“She’s just a really warm and really good girl. So talented.”

Aaron Carter's depression result of parents' divorce

OHMYGOSSIP — Aaron Carter’s depression was triggered by his parents’ divorce.
The 28-year-old star has spoken candidly about his battle with mental illness and drug abuse and how it was the result of his father Robert and mother Jane announcing the end of their marriage on the same day he was due to film his MTV ‘Cribs’ episode.
Talking about that day, he recalled: “It was 2004 or 2003, a lot of money was coming, in we had the biggest estate in all of the Florida Keys.
“I had to show all the cameras my life that I was losing and nobody ever knew it.”
And after their split, the pop hunk turned to boozing and substance abuse.
He added: “The depression was brought on because I loved my family being together. I did not want to see them divorced. I couldn’t dwell on it. I couldn’t think about it too much. I kind of had to block it out. I started partying and getting into a lot of trouble.”
As a result of his wild partying, his money was going down the drain and another incident tipped him over the age, the shock death of his sister Leslie Carter in 2012.
The ‘I Want Candy’ hitmaker had seen his sister weeks before her death and wanted to help her by paying for her to go to rehab.
During an interview on ‘Oprah: Where Are They Now’, he explained: “I wasn’t making that much money. Fortunately, I just hit my bonus – $10,000 the week before Leslie died – and I actually reached out to her two weeks before that and I said, ‘I’m going to get you the money to go to rehab.’ She wanted it and her phone got cut off.”
However, after she had passed away Aaron – who is the younger brother of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter – learned to value life again.
He said: “I think out of all the experiences and all the things that happened with my sister’s passing. I just learned that life means so much to me and more than just money and fame.”
However, money became tight and Aaron claims he was unable to return to music because labels and the industry didn’t want to work with him.
He explained: “With everything that was happening. I started losing all my money I went broke.
“They were not interested in me. They had no interest in me. They didn’t want to touch me. They didn’t want to touch me. They didn’t want to do anything.”

Susan Williams speaks about Robin's battle with brain disease

OHMYGOSSIP — Robin Williams’ wife says his fight against Lewy Body Disease was “the biggest battle of his life”.
Susan Schneider believes her 63-year-old husband committed suicide in August 2014 because of the debilitating brain disease, which is the second most common form of neurodegenerative dementia after Alzheimer’s and causes heightened levels of anxiety, delusions and impaired movement.
The disease was only diagnosed after an autopsy was carried out following his death, and Susan has now joined forces with the American Brain Foundation to “cure all brain disease”.
Speaking as she accepted the 2016 Angel Harvey Heart of a Patriot Award from the USO on Robin’s behalf in Chicago over the weekend, Susan said: “The biggest battle of his life was against Lewy Body Disease. This terrifying disease attacks the brain. No matter how many doctors we saw, symptoms we chased, or tests we ran, it was only in autopsy that I learned we had unknowingly been battling a deadly disease. A disease for which there is no cure. The devastation on Robin’s brain from the Lewy bodies, was one of the worst cases medical professionals have ever seen. Yet throughout all of this, his heart remained strong.
“In 1945 the American Cancer Society put all forms of cancer on the collective map and called it ‘cancer’. They saw it as one disease and set out to attack each manifestation of it. It is time we take the same approach with the brain – combining medical knowledge, funding, research and efforts to look at brain disease as a whole. I have joined forces with the American Brain Foundation and have taken up their noble mission: to cure all brain disease. Together we can usher in a new era of brain care where early detection, cures and ultimately prevention become reality.”
Susan compared Robin’s battle to that of America’s servicemen and women and said her love for him had helped her to cope since his death.
She explained: “I’m here with you because of my husband’s heart. Robin absolutely had the heart of a patriot. I cannot think of a more fitting award for him, nor one that he would be more proud to receive, especially in the presence of all of you. Robin was also a warrior, and like so many of our finest servicemen and women he had battles to face.
“I stand hopeful before all of you. The love my husband and I have shared has been my beacon and my guide. The love all of you give by your choice to take your worst days and use them to give someone their best days – that devotion and caring for others is my strength.”

Justin Bieber storms off stage after being booed by fans

OHMYGOSSIP — Justin Bieber stormed off stage in Manchester, England, on Sunday (23.10.16).
The 22-year-old singer was booed by the crowd as he spoke to them between songs, because they wanted him to get on with singing his hits, so be dropped his microphone and walked off the stage.
However, he soon returned and said: “Manc can’t handle the talking so I won’t talk.”
And Justin explained his tantrum at the end of the concert, before he played ‘Baby’.
He said: “The reason why I was getting upset earlier was because I travelled across the whole world to come here and I dedicate my life to performing and bring smiles to people’s faces.
“I feel that people were just not giving me the same respect back and it hurts a little bit so that’s why. But we’re gonna end it on this last song… ‘Baby’.”
Justin’s UK dates on his ‘Purpose’ world tour have been controversial, as last week the singer blasted his fans at two different concerts.
On his opening night in Manchester, Justin told fans to stay “as quiet as possible” while he was singing.
He said: “Try and stay as quiet as possible. You can scream as much as you want afterwards, but while I’m singing try and stay quiet.”
And Justin was also annoyed that fans would not listen when he started talking between songs.
He reportedly said: “I just thought I could have a moment to say something. If not, I’ll just get to singing. I don’t mind cutting the bulls**t because I don’t need to talk. I’m just trying to engage, but if you guys don’t want to do that then we can just play the music.”
Just days before that, he also blasted fans for screaming at his show in Birmingham.
He was recorded telling fans: “Just try to show me you love me, in a different way. I get it. The screaming is just so obnoxious. I get it, it’s been in our blood and it’s been grand, you go to a concert and scream and stuff. But if we could just … scream after the song, enjoy the songs … the screaming is awesome, it’s fine, and then we take a chill pill for a second and we just listen to me speak. Because … I don’t feel like I’m being heard sometimes and it’s getting a little pressuring. So, if when I’m speaking you guys could not scream at the top of your lungs. Is that cool with you guys?”
During the recording one woman can be heard shouting “no”, but Justin continued, admitting he finds it “tough” on tour sometimes being away from his pals.
He explained: “Like I was saying, I’ve been on tour for a while now. I’m away from my friends so it can be tough sometimes. I have all you beautiful people to keep me company.”

Shailene Woodley honoured by Environmental Media Association

OHMYGOSSIP — Shailene Woodley has been honoured by the Environmental Media Association for her activism.
The 24-year-old actress, who was arrested earlier this month during a peaceful protest, was celebrated on Sunday (23.10.16) for her activism, and urged people to “live a more compassionate life” and to think more about the environment.
Speaking to “Entertainment Tonight’, the ‘Divergent’ star said: “I don’t know if I’m fearless, but I’m definitely one of those people who looks fear in the face. We are an environmental issue! Right? We are the environment. We are the soil, we come from the earth. In order to survive we need oxygen.
“For me, it’s not about helping the environment or saving the environment. It’s about recognising that if I want my children to know a world where Manhattan isn’t all the way under water – because guess what, ladies and gentlemen, that world is not too distant and it’s a reality that we must start facing and waking up to – [then] we’ve got to work to make that happen. And I’m down for that because I love this Earth. I love humanity.
“Thousands of people are committed to fighting and winning a battle against corporate greed with nothing but love and compassion. Live a more compassionate life, because the ripple effect of that is what is going to save our oceans, our planet, and our race.”
‘The Fault in Our Stars’ actress’ continued compassion for the planet comes after she was arrested for criminal trespassing during a peaceful protest of the Dakota Access Pipeline on October 10.
Protestors fear the pipeline project – which aims to transfer crude oil across the Missouri river – could potentially cause irreversible harm to the drinking water for the nearby Standing Rock community, as well as the river’s ecosystem.
Speaking of her arrest, Shailene – who livestreamed the event on Facebook – said: “I’m being arrested! I was down there with everybody else! I don’t know what’s going on, as soon as they came I left. It’s because I’m well known, it’s because I have 40,000 people watching.”

Kelsey Grammer's daughter pleased he's to be a dad again

OHMYGOSSIP — Kelsey Grammer’s daughter is delighted he is to be a father again – because she isn’t ready to have kids of her own.
The former ‘Frasier’ actor and wife Kayte – who already have Faith, four, and Gabe, two together – are expecting their third child together and 24-year-old Greer, whose mother is make-up artist Barrie Buckner, couldn’t be happier.
Greer – who is dating Tyler Konney – said: “[This scenario] is great for me because I love babies, but I’m not ready to be a mom yet.
“So, I get to just keep having little kids to play with and dress up!”
The ‘Awkward’ star thinks her 61-year-old dad and his wife, 36, are “the best parents” and loves seeing them with their kids.
She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “I’m really excited, they are the best parents.
“They have so much fun having the little kids running around the house.

While Kelsey and Kayte’s kids are still very young, their older half-sister already has advice for them ready for when they start school.
She said: “I would tell them to focus.
“I focused on boys a lot in school, which is normal, but just to really apply themselves.
“In school, I kind of did the lazy overachiever sort of thing up until college. In college I tried a little bit harder, but I think it’s really important to do that starting at a young age.
“School didn’t necessarily make me happy the way it made some kids happy, but I found dancing.
“I loved doing ballet. That was something I applied myself in.”

Shannen Doherty thanks Chelsea Handler for support

OHMYGOSSIP — Shannen Doherty goes on weekly “date nights” with Chelsea Handler.
The ‘Charmed’ actress has grown particularly close to the talk show host in recent months and is thankful to have the support of the 41-year-old comic as she continues to fight breast cancer.
Shannen shared a picture of herself and Chelsea on Instagram and wrote: “And then there is this lady…. @chelseahandler We met many many years ago. Have run into each other and always exchanged numbers, talked of plans etc.
“Chelsea reached out and has since, made a point to have date nights with me on a weekly basis. Yeah she’s funny but also wicked smart with a huge heart. This one just wants to make a difference.
“Sometimes the right people come into your life at the right time. #girlpower #fightlikeagirl (sic)”
Shannen also thanked another of her friends, Sarah Michelle Gellar, for her support after the ‘Buff the Vampire Slayer’ actress shared a picture of the two stars with the former ‘Beverly Hills, 90210’ star’s doctor and urged her followers to ensure they undergo regular screening for breast cancer.

Alongside a heartbreaking photograph of Shannen lying on her side on a hospital bed after a round of chemotherapy, she wrote: “#fbf to a very short bit ago. Day after #chemoday isn’t always so great. Sometimes one isn’t able to dance, or eat or even to think about the next day. Sometimes it just feels like you aren’t going to make it. That passes. Sometimes the next day or 2 days later or 6 but it passes and movement is possible. Hope is possible. Possibility is possible. To my cancer family and everyone suffering…. stay courageous. Stay strong. Stay positive. #wegotthis. #fightlikeagirl (sic)”

Taylor Swift felt 'violated' by alleged groping

OHMYGOSSIP — Taylor Swift felt “frantic and distressed” after allegedly being groped.
The 26-year-old singer has an ongoing lawsuit against DJ David Mueller, who she accused of grabbing her bum when they met backstage at her concert in Colorado last year, and while a judge has agreed to make pictures of the alleged incident sealed from public view, her videotaped deposition has now been made available.
In the deposition, which was videoed on July 26, the ‘Blank Space’ singer was asked to recount the incident in detail and spoke about her embarrassment and discomfort.
She said: “I remember being frantic, distressed, feeling violated in a way I had never experienced before.
“A meet-and-greet is supposed to be a situation where you’re thanking people for coming, you’re supposed to be welcoming people into your home, which is the arena for that day, and for someone to violate that hospitality in that way, I was completely stunned.”
And Taylor insisted the DJ’s conduct proved his behaviour was “completely intentional.
She said: “Right as the moment came for us to pose for the photo, he took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek and no matter how much I scooted over it was still there.
“It was completely intentional, I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life.”
Last year Mueller – who denies the claims of groping – filed a lawsuit against Taylor, claiming he was fired from a country radio station after being kicked out of a Taylor concert when her security team made the allegations against him.
He said he and his girlfriend were invited backstage to meet Taylor and took a picture with the ‘Wildest Dreams’ hitmaker, but claims he later bumped into a colleague backstage, who boasted about getting a picture with the singer and grabbed her bum.
In the lawsuit, David claims at some point in the evening a member of Taylor’s security team confronted him and kicked him out of the arena for the incident.
Taylor later launched a counter-claim, saying she was “surprised, upset, offended, and alarmed” by the alleged assault.

The ‘Famous’ rapper is furious that his friend Frank Ocean’s albums ‘Blonde’ and ‘Endless’ were not submitted for consideration for the upcoming ceremony, and has vowed not to show up to the prestigious event if his pal isn’t nominated for any awards.
Speaking on stage in Oakland, he said: “The album I listened to the most this year is Frank Ocean’s album.
“And I’ll tell you this right now: if his album’s not nominated in no categories, I’m not showing up to the Grammys. As artists, we gotta come together to fight the bulls**t they been throwing us with.”
Kanye insists he wouldn’t care if Frank doesn’t win any awards, he just wants him to be in the running.
He added: “All we need is a fair shot. Let the album lose, let whoever win or lose. My whole point, my purpose, my existence, everything that people try to diss me for is based on just an instant replay plot. Imagine in sports they didn’t have no instant replay plot, and someone could step completely out of bounds.”
Kanye insisted Grammys organisers could bend the rules for Frank if they wanted to, citing the fact Lady Gaga’s ‘The Fame’ was nominated for a string of awards in 2010, despite its release date making it eligible for prizes in the 2009 awards.
He fumed: “I don’t know if any of y’all remember, I was supposed to go on tour with [Lady] Gaga.
“I remember, it was something where she was nominated… She wasn’t nominated for best new artist, right? But they wanted her to perform at the show, they wanted her to open.
“So the Grammys secretly changed something about the nominations to nominate her in order for her to perform in the show.
“Now, Frank Ocean on the other hand is very vocal that his album wasn’t nominated for the Grammys. Since he’s vocal, no one wants to say nothing about it. No one wants to do nothing about it. I’m saying this to y’all, because a lot of people try to make a scene like, ‘I’m so self-centered.’ ”
It is unclear whether there was an oversight by Frank’s team or if there was never an intention to submit either of the records for a potential Grammy prize.
A rep for Frank confirmed that the records were not submitted for consideration.
