Nicole Kidman to be honoured at Hollywood Film Awards

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicole Kidman will be honoured with the Hollywood Career Achievement Award at the upcoming Hollywood Film Awards.
The 51-year-old actress has been chosen for the honour thanks to the “versatility” of her performances and her support of independent filmmakers, in particular women.
Organisers said: “Her selection for this award is a tribute to the versatility of her performances over the years, with characters as diverse and extraordinary as an aspiring television personality with a dark motive in Gus Van Zant’s ‘To Die For’ to the iconic and complicated Virginia Woolf in ‘The Hours’; from a wife who, with her husband, embarks on an odyssey of sexual and moral discovery in Kubrick’s ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ to Satine, the singing and dancing courtesan in Baz Luhrmann’s ‘Moulin Rouge!’; and from the unguarded adoptive mother of an orphan boy longing to help others in need in Garth Davis’ ‘Lion’ to a woman on the run who pays a huge price to be hidden in Lars von Triers’ controversial and thrilling ‘Dogville’.
“With three films coming out before the end of this year, Kidman has already received praise for her transformative performance in Karyn Kusama’s ‘Destroyer’ and in Joel Edgerton’s ‘Boy Erased’.
“In addition to her chameleonic performances, Kidman is also being recognised for her career-long support of independent filmmakers, particularly women. Through her production company, Blossom Films, she has taken this to a new level.
“Among the many projects she has produced, last year’s ‘Big Little Lies’ was a phenomenon that entered not only the cultural, but the social zeitgeist.”
The Hollywood Film Awards take place at California’s Beverly Hilton Hotel on November 4.

Sally Ann Matthews lost her child out shoppingSally Ann Matthews recalls worst parenting moment

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Coronation Street’ star Sally Ann Matthews experienced the worst moment of her life when she lost her child out shopping.
The 47-year-old actress experienced every parent’s “worst nightmare” when she was trying on some clothes in a Next store and realised her son was missing.
Sally – who has two sons, Louis and James, with her husband Nick – recalled the harrowing experience on her Twitter account whilst she was watching new BBC One drama ‘The Cry’ on Sunday night (30.09.18), which is about a mother whose child is seemingly abducted.
She tweeted: “Absolutely your worst nightmare. Mine went missing in the changing rooms of Next and that was traumatic enough x #TheCry (sic)”
‘The Cry’ stars ‘Victoria’ actress Jenna Coleman as Joanna, a new mother who is suffering with post-natal depression following the birth of her son Noah. Her and her politician husband Alistair (Ewen Leslie) were seen distraught at the end of the first episode when they return to their car to find Noah is gone during a trip Australia.
The first instalment of the drama contained a scene depicting the family on a long-haul flight to Melbourne with Joanna struggling to cope with Noah who cries during the entire journey.
Sally empathised with Jenna’s alter ego tweeting that she always makes a point during trips to “smile and engage” with parents and their offspring because mothers are “usually worried” they’re “disturbing” other people who are sharing the same flight.
Sally wrote: “Anybody who looks at a mother or father with a young child on a flight with disdain is clearly not a parent themselves. On the rare occasion I fly I always make a point to smile and engage. Even if the young un is fine the parent is usually worried they’re disturbing x (sic)”
The soap star continued to say she shares the same attitude with young children when she is “out shopping” and says it’s the little things that can “mean the world” to someone.
Sally wrote: “Out shopping I swear people think I’m weird. I remember when mine were little that the smile and reassuring nod from a stranger meant the world x (sic)”

Marc Baylis up for Coronation Street comeback

OHMYGOSSIP — Marc Baylis is up for a return to ‘Coronation Street’.
The 41-year-old actor has played Rob Donovan in two separate stints on the cobbles and he insists he would “never say never” to making a comeback as the show means a lot to him, however, he doesn’t want to spend too long “waiting for a call”.
In an interview with Star magazine, he said: “I’ve already been back twice, so never say never. The show will always have a special place in my heart, but I can’t spend my life waiting for a call.”
As for keeping in contact with his ‘Corrie’ co-stars, he is in touch with many of the friends he made on the ITV soap but admits it can be difficult due to everyone’s hectic schedules.
He said: “We’re at opposite ends of the country so it’s hard. They work ridiculous hours up there and I have my life in London, but I’m still in touch with Kate Ford, Chris Gascoyne and Alison King.”
Marc’s alter ego Rob infamously attacked Michelle Keegan’s character Tina Mclntyre leading to her death and in his second appearance he was a prisoner on the run from jail.
He can currently be seen in new zombie movie ‘Redcon-1’, which follows a squad of Special Forces soldiers who are assigned a suicide mission to rescue a scientist from a city ruled by the undead.
Although Marc – who plays the family man with a dark past who causes the zombie outbreak – doesn’t deliberately look for darker roles he does enjoy playing those types of characters and he particularly liked doing the physical stunts on his latest project.
He said: “I love doing the physical stuff. It adds another dimension to the job and breaks the norm of just saying words all the time.”

Jess Glynne wrote Little Mix’s new single

OHMYGOSSIP — Jess Glynne wrote Little Mix’s new single.
The ‘All I Am’ hitmaker has revealed she initially penned the track ‘Woman Like You’ with Ed Sheeran and legendary songwriter Steve Mac for herself while she was putting together her album ‘Always In Between’ but she later decided to give it to the girls because she didn’t think the sound suited the direction of her LP.
Speaking on ‘The Official Vodafone Big Top 40’, she said: “I wrote that song for me with Ed and Steve Mac… [but] the writing process with an album changes and directions change, and it just didn’t fit with where the album was going.
“The girls wanted to use it and I love them, we’re cool, and they recorded it and it sounded great. They got Nicki [Minaj] on it, which is really exciting, and they’re making the most of it. It was going to be one of my main songs a while ago… we had to change some of the lyrics a little bit just to suit them.”
The 28-year-old singer wasn’t asked to feature on the song when Little Mix – comprised of Jade Thirlwall, Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Jesy Nelson – recorded it, but she thinks they may have kept a few of her vocals.
She explained: “I’m not on the song – there is a few, little things they might have kept on there. Unfortunately, I was away when they recorded it…[but] I’ve spoken to the girls on the phone – it was fun to do.”
Little Mix announced over the weekend that they had collaborated with Nicki Minaj on ‘Woman Like You’ – taken from their highly-anticipated upcoming fifth studio album – and it will be available for download from October 12.
Tune in to ‘The Official Vodafone Big Top 40’ on Sundays from 4pm.

Cardi B charged with assault and reckless endangerment

OHMYGOSSIP — Cardi B has been charged with assault and reckless endangerment.
The ‘Bodak Yellow’ hitmaker handed herself into police on Monday (01.10.18) and was charged with the two misdemeanour offences after allegedly ordering an attack on two bartenders at Angels Strip Club in Queens, New York, in August.
The 25-year-old rapper reportedly had her mug shot and fingerprints taken at the station before she was handed the arraignment date of October 29.
Joe Tacopina, the attorney for the alleged victims, told TMZ.com: “She [Cardi B] continues to threaten them and clearly thinks her celebrity status is going to get her out of this. But it doesn’t matter if her name is Cardi B or Carl B … if she commits violent assaults she will be brought to justice.”
It was previously claimed the ‘Be Careful’ hitmaker had a long-standing issue with bartenders Jade and Baddie Gi because of Cardi’s mistaken belief Jade had slept with her husband Offset, with whom she has two-month-old daughter Kulture.
And when she came face-to-face with the sisters at the club, where Offset was performing with his band Migos, she allegedly ordered her entourage to attack them with bottles, chairs and a hookah smoking device.
The women were both hurt, but declined medical attention.
However, insiders claim the attack was “spontaneous” and triggered after someone threw a drink.
Jade previously claimed that on August 15, five people close to Cardi attacked her by “grabbing her hair, punching her and hitting her with an ashtray”.
And on August 29, the sisters claimed Cardi’s entourage threw bottles and chairs at them both.
While they admit Cardi did not physically attack them, they have claimed that she yelled “I’m blood, I’ll f**k you bitches up!”
The ‘I Like It’ hitmaker has denied the allegations against her and previously accused the sisters of seeking publicity.

Stomzy releases diversity book under #Merky Books

OHMYGOSSIP — Stormzy has announced the first independent title to be released under his publishing imprint #Merky Books will tackle diversity.
The ‘Blinded By Your Grace’ hitmaker has revealed the second book ‘Taking Up Space’ to drop under his project – in which he’s collaborated with Penguin Random House – will “shake culture” when it becomes available in June 2019.
Taking to his Instagram account, the 25-year-old rapper said: “Oi I’m sooooo gassed to announce the 2nd book that will be released on our #MERKY Books w/ Penguin – “Taking Up Space” written by the PHENOMENAL Chelsea Kwakye (@chelseakwakye) & Ore Ogunbiyi (@oreogunbiyi) – these 2 girls are incredible and this book is going to shake culture trust me, please follow them and also @takingupspacebook more details and information to come soon!! PRE ORDER LINK IS IN MY BIO!!! So make sure you pre order guys (sic)”
Chelsea and Ore wrote the book to encourage “honest conversations” about diversity and inclusion among young black girls at university and hope their experiences will provide comfort to those going through the schooling process.
In a joint statement, they said “Diversity and inclusion have become buzzwords, especially in education, but it is time that we had honest conversations about what those two words truly mean, especially for young black girls.
“Through our stories and the experiences of past and present university students, this book seeks to fill the gap of often incomplete conversations about widening participation and inclusion at university.
“It will be the book that we wish we had before going into university and we hope it provides a comfort to those who will inevitably share our experiences.”
Stormzy launched the initiative with the publishing company in July as he wanted to create a platform for young people to have a voice.
He said on Instagram at the time: “Super proud to announce our new venture #Merky Books, a publishing imprint in collaboration with Penguin Random House @penguinukbooks. We will be using this as a platform for young writers to become published authors, I know too many talented writers that don’t always have an outlet or a means to get their work seen and hopefully #Merky Books can now be a reference point for them to say “I can be an author” and for that to be a realistic and achievable goal.”
The rapper said the imprint would search high and low for potential authors including through school competitions and submissions.
He explained: “Reading and writing as a kid was integral to where I am today and I from the bottom of my heart can not wait to hear your stories, your poems, your novels, your sci-fis and then getting them out into the big wide world. Proper proud of this! We’ll be doing school competitions, taking entries and submissions and looking for writers as well but I’ll keep you posted! #Merky Books will also be offering a paid internship in 2019! The first book to be released under the imprint will be “Rise Up: The #Merky Journey So Far” out November 1st and available for pre order now (sic)”

Sia buys Maddie Ziegler a car for 16th

OHMYGOSSIP — Sia bought Maddie Ziegler a car for her 16th birthday.
The former ‘Dance Moms’ star – who has appeared in a number of the singer’s music videos, on her album covers and more – couldn’t believe her luck when the ‘Chandelier’ hitmaker rocked up at her house on Sunday (30.09.18) night with a white Audi in celebration of her sweet 16.
Taking to her Instagram account, Maddie uploaded a photograph of her perched against the bonnet of the vehicle, which was embellished with a huge red bow, and wrote: “sweet sixteen can’t believe this car is actually mine !! (sic)”
The 42-year-old singer uploaded a series of photographs on her own account – including one of her and Maddie sliding across the bonnet – and wrote: “Happy Birthday to my most special noonoo @maddieziegler (sic)”
It’s hardly surprising that Sia wanted to spoil the youngster as the teenager previously said she sees the blonde singer as her “second mom.”
She said: “I’ve actually lived with [Sia] this year more than I have with my actual family, so it’s fun. We have the best time together. She teaches me how to cook and new things about life … It doesn’t feel like work when we’re together anymore. It’s really just a bond that we have. She’s my second mom.”
And the pair are set to get even closer as Maddie will portray a younger version of Sia in the forthcoming biopic ‘Sisters’ – which stars Kate Hudson – out in 2019.
Speaking about Sia and Kate last year, Maddie said: “She’s amazing I mean she knows how to do everything, she’s the most incredible actor and she’s probably my biggest inspiration in life – her and Sia, two girl empowerment, they’re amazing.”

Katie Price wishes she’d gone to rehab years ago

OHMYGOSSIP — Katie Price wishes she had gone to rehab “years ago.”
The 40-year-old former glamour model is currently undergoing a 28-day treatment plan at The Priory after she was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and now she wishes she had sought help earlier because it may have saved her from getting her heart broken by “crap men” over the years.
A source told The Sun Online: “Rehab has been really good for Katie, she said she wishes she’d done it years ago. She reckons it would have saved herself a few years of ‘crap men’, as she calls it.
“Psychologists have told Katie that she attracts sociopaths, not necessarily bad ones, just men who are very friendly on the surface, but, ultimately, are fake and emotionless on the inside. They feel that she attracts them because she’s a narcissist herself and needs to work on her own personality every day, or she’ll find herself detached from the real world.
“They have been working with her on ways to identify a sociopath and abusive behaviour in a person. She has been told even if a man tells you your top is too low, unless you have asked for his opinion, then that is abusive. She needs to take control of her life and not rely on being in a relationship.”
Katie hasn’t had the best of luck when it comes to her love life over the years as she split from her first husband Peter Andre – with whom she has two children Junior, 13, and Princess, 11 – in May 2009 before going on to date Alex Reid.
The couple got married in 2010 but their relationship was short lived as they separated in 2011 before Katie tied the knot with Kieran Hayler in 2013.
The brunette beauty has two children Jett, four, and Bunny, three, with the former builder but their relationship hit the rocks last year when she found out he’d cheated on her for the second time and they’ve since got their separate ways.
Katie also has 16-year-old son Harvey with former footballer Dwight Yorke.

Kendall Jenner wants ‘spur of the moment wedding’

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendall Jenner wants to “run away” and get married.
The 22-year-old reality TV star – who is notorious for keeping her love life under wraps – has admitted she’d love to settle down one day but, rather than follow in her famous half-sister Kim Kardashian West’s footsteps and have a lavish wedding, she wants a “spur of the moment” ceremony at the city hall.
Speaking to her friend Jen Atkin on ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ in Sunday (30.10.18) night’s episode, she said: “I literally want to run to the city hall and get married and just be like ‘F*** it, let’s go right now. Just like, spur of the moment.”
Jen was puzzled by the brunette beauty’s revelation as she doesn’t have a “type”.
She said: “Who are you going to marry? You don’t have a type at all.”
To which Kendall replied: “I don’t have a type — you cute, you cute.
“Like, who am I going to marry?
“A piece of advice that my dad always told me is that in a relationship, when you meet someone young, the hardest thing to do is change with them.”
Jen encouraged Kendall to wait until she was in her late 20s to settle down.
She explained: “That’s why I think you shouldn’t get married until you’re like, in your late 20s. Who knows, you might not even want to get married. Your generation is probably going to be like, ‘Ugh, marriage is so old-fashioned.’ ”
Kendall shot back: “No, I want to get married.”
The model has never been one to parade her love life in the public eye and she recently admitted her reluctance to share details led to people thinking she was bisexual.
She said recently: “I like my private life. I think it’s because I’m not like all my other sisters, who are like, ‘Here’s me and my boyfriend!’ So it was a thing for a minute because no one ever saw me with a guy. I would always go that extra mile to be low-key with guys, sneaking around all the time.
“You don’t want to, like, look crazy. I don’t think I have a bisexual or gay bone in my body, but I don’t know! Who knows?! I’m all down for experience — not against it whatsoever — but I’ve never been there before.”

Ewan McGregor thinks he’s paying estranged wife too much money

OHMYGOSSIP — Ewan McGregor thinks he’s paying his estranged wife too much maintenance.
The 46-year-old actor filed for divorce from his wife of 22 years, Eve Mavrakis, earlier this year – citing “irreconcilable differences” for the breakdown of their marriage – and, although he’s not yet been ordered to pay anything because the proceedings are still on going, he’s claimed he’s forked out more than he needs to.
According to court documents, obtained by The Blast, Ewan has claimed he’s been “voluntarily contributing to the living expenses” of Eve and their children; Clara, 22, Jamyan, 16, Esther, 16 and Anouk, seven, since they separated last year.
However, although Eve acknowledges that he’s been voluntarily coughing up financial support, she doesn’t think he’s been giving her enough given his earnings.
In the initial divorce papers, Ewan asked for joint custody of their kids but in Eve’s response to his petition, she has asked for sole custody with visitation for him.
The pair announced their split in October last year but the court documents show the date of their separation as May 28th 2017.
Ewan recently said he hasn’t worked since he finished ‘Christopher Robin’ in November last year because he’s been spending quality time with his children.
He said: “I haven’t worked since making this film last November. I just took this time off. I needed to, and I wanted to. I’m about to start something in September, and I look back now and think, ‘What have I done?’ And I’ve done nothing really! But I’ve been really busy doing nothing!
“In actual fact, it’s been brilliant having this time off. I’ve spent a lot of time with my kids, [and also] doing things that I like to do like riding my old bike and tinkering with old cars … Things that I felt like I wasn’t having any time to do and not really having a great deal of time.”
Despite seemingly spending time with his family, Ewan’s eldest daughter Clara caused friction last month when she took to Instagram to call her father’s new girlfriend and ‘Fargo’ co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead a “piece of trash”.
Commenting on a picture from an Instagram fan page devoted to the actress which described her as beautiful, Clara wrote: “Most beautiful and talented woman on earth? Oh man y’all are delusional. The girl is a piece of trash x [sic]”

Rita Ora is Esquire Middle East’s first-ever cover girl

OHMYGOSSIP — Rita Ora has become the first woman to grace the front cover of Esquire Middle East.
The ‘RIP’ hitmaker has made history by becoming the first lady to feature on the front page of the popular magazine – and she made sure it was nothing less than perfect as she slipped into a black bosom-boosting dress and oversized floppy hat.
Taking to her Instagram account, the 27-year-old singer uploaded a photograph of the front cover and accompanied it with the caption: “I’m an @Esquiremiddleeast cover girl thank you for making me the first ever woman cover shoot star (sic).”
The blonde beauty discussed her body confidence with the magazine as she admitted that stripping off and parading her assets actually makes her feel “empowered.”
Speaking to Esquire Middle East, Rita – who performed at the magazine’s party in Dubai last month to celebrate its 100th issue – said: “I find it very empowering.
“I love being in tune with my body, and I don’t see me being sexy as a form of disrespect to other people or my upbringing. It is a form of freedom of expression.
“You know, men also show off their body’s on Instagram and people don’t give them as much sh*t.”
Meanwhile, although her good looks and celebrity status attracts a lot of attention, Rita recently admitted that she hates going on dates because they give her anxiety.
She said: “You’ve got to do a little bit more than swipe [on Tinder].
“Dates freak me out. I get crazy anxiety. I don’t want any pressure. I’d rather have like a little drink. I just find it weird so a little drink is the easiest way.”
Although she’s not keen on dating, Rita is constantly being hounded by men trying their luck on social media and, although she usually ignores them, she sometimes entertains them if she’s bored.
When asked if she gets DMs from men on social media, she said: “I get a few, I’m not going to lie and say I don’t sometimes entertain it… But sometimes I completely ignore it and it’s a little rude as I didn’t see that there’s a thing that says you’ve read the messages so I’m reading the messages and it just says read…”
When asked if it’s every hour, the blonde beauty laughed: “Is it bad to say yes Not being full-headed. It’s not like a focus on it, but I do get a few…”

John Legend to release Christmas album

OHMYGOSSIP — John Legend is releasing his first-ever Christmas album.
The 39-year-old singer has announced that he’s finally fulfilling his dream of releasing a festive LP this year by dropping ‘A Legendary Christmas’ – featuring eight classics and six new tracks – this winter as well as a tour to accompany the release.
Taking to his Twitter account, John uploaded the promotional video for his album, which featured his wife Chrissy Teigen and their two children Luna, two, and Miles, four months, and said: “What’s up everybody it’s John Legend here. It’s sunny Los Angeles in September but I can’t stop thinking about Christmas. I just made a new Christmas album, I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time.
“We recorded eight classic Christmas songs plus six brand new Christmas songs just for you. The album is called ‘A Legendary Christmas’ and we’re about to have ‘A Legendary Christmas Tour’ coming to a city near you soon!
“November 15 through to the end of the year with our ‘A Legendary Christmas Tour’ and we want to see you there!”
He accompanied the video with the caption: “This winter, get ready for A Legendary Christmas! I have a brand new Christmas album coming out accompanied by #ALegendaryChristmas Tour!
“Sign up for pre-sale TODAY only and pre-sale begins tomorrow at 10AM local time. Full dates & sign up for pre-sale on http://smarturl.it/legendaryxmastour …”
The ‘All of Me’ hitmaker revealed at the beginning of last month that he had been busy working over the summer on festive tracks but found it “surreal” because the temperatures were scorching at the time and he was singing about snow.
He said at the time: “Yes, I’m so excited. So we have five new Christmas songs on the album, and quite a few classics. I’ve been recording it all summer.
“Recording Christmas songs over the summer puts you in a good mood! It’s kinda surreal combining 100 degree Los Angeles summer with Christmas songs.”

Lana Del Rey thinks Kanye West needs ‘intervention’

OHMYGOSSIP — Lana Del Rey thinks Kanye West needs an “intervention.”
The ‘Young and Beautiful’ hitmaker may have performed at the 41-year-old rapper’s pre-wedding ceremony when he married Kim Kardashian West in France four years ago, but that didn’t stop her from lashing out at him after he suggested that America should abolish the constitutional amendment that outlaws slavery.
Taking to her Instagram account, she fumed: “Trump becoming our president was a loss for the country but your support for him is a loss for the culture. I can only assume you relate to his personality on some level. Delusions of grandeur, extreme issues with narcissism — none of which would be a talking point if we weren’t speaking about the man leading our country. If you think it’s alright to support someone who believes it’s OK to grab a woman by the p**** just because he’s famous, then you need an intervention as much as he does, something so many narcissists will never get because there just isn’t enough help for the issue. (sic)”
Her comments came as a direct response to a post from Kanye who posed in a red ‘Make America Great Again’ baseball cap alongside the controversial message.
He wrote: “This represents good and America becoming whole again. We will no longer outsource to other countries. We build factories here in America and create jobs. We will provide jobs for all who are free from prisons as we abolish the 13th amendment. Message sent with love.”
After facing backlash for his tweet, the star clarified his position on the issue.
He said: “the 13th Amendment is slavery in disguise meaning it never ended We are the solution that heals.
“not abolish but. let’s amend the 13th amendment
“We apply everyone’s opinions to our platform (sic)”
Earlier this year, Kanye caused controversy when he claimed in an interview that 400 years of slavery “sounds like a choice”.
The rap star – who has kids North, five, Saint, two, and eight-month-old Chicago with Kim – said: “When you hear about slavery for 400 years: for 400 years, that sounds like choice. You was there for 400 years. And it’s all of y’all?”

Bradley Cooper thought daughter’s birth was ‘perfect’

OHMYGOSSIP — Bradley Cooper thought the timing of his daughter’s birth was “kind of perfect.”
The 43-year-old actor’s partner Irina Shayk delivered their little girl Lea De Seine, now 18 months old, a week before his debut directorial role on ‘A Star is Born’ and he has admitted the timing of her arrival couldn’t have been better.
Speaking to America’s W magazine, he said: “I’d wake up and work out, followed by two hours of guitar practice and two hours of piano lessons. Lunch. Then Lukas Nelson, my collaborator, would come over, and we’d write music for one and a half hours. I’d write the screenplay for the rest of the day. Irina was pregnant, so it was kind of perfect. Lea was born a week before we started shooting.”
Bradley can’t believe how much his life has changed since he became a father.
He said recently: “I spent about 15 years going from movie to movie to movie. And then I hit 39 and I stopped and I said, ‘What do I really want to do?’ I want to tell Joseph Merrick’s story in ‘The Elephant Man’. So I did that for a year. Then this story came to me, ‘A Star Is Born’, and then I spent the next four years doing that. And the one thing that I know in the future is: It’s worth all the time to dedicate, even if one piece of art comes out of it in a half a decade, that would still be incredible as long as I can feel like it’s the movie I wanted to make, which is this movie. So I guess having a child, and having a family of my own – which is a miracle and something I’ve always dreamt of – has opened me up even more, I guess, to the day, and to be present.”
And the couple – who have been together since 2015 – want more children soon.
A source said recently: “They are both extremely thrilled and feel so blessed. Bradley and Irina love each other so much and this is not gonna be the only kid – there will be a few more after this one. Both families are very happy.”

Kim Kardashian West ’embarrassed’ by Kanye West’s outburst

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West was “embarrassed” by Kanye West’s recent outburst.
The 41-year-old rapper landed himself in hot water over the weekend when he went on a rant about President Donald Trump – whom he has supported since he won the 2016 presidential election – during his appearance on ‘Saturday Night Live’ but, although his wife was shocked by his behaviour, she’s reportedly promised she’ll stick by him “no matter what” because he’s entitled to his opinion.
A source told People.com: “Having all this backlash against Kanye is embarrassing for her and her family, but she will never say that. She supports Kanye through and through and truly thinks her husband is entitled to his own opinion.”
However, that doesn’t mean the couple – who have three children North, five, Saint, two, and Chicago, eight months, together – won’t have a war of words behind closed doors as Kim recently admitted they once rowed over a plaster.
Speaking to her sister Khloe on ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’, she said: “I go, ‘Oh look, North has Jesus band-aids. Put on a Jesus band-aid’. And he was like, “I’ve slaved around the world making clothes for you to make sure that you find the best outfit, and you let me go out wearing a Jesus band-aid!’
“He said I should have gotten a skin colour band-aid. So I’m running around to find three f**king different coloured band-aids when I have three kids to look after.”
And that wasn’t the only minor issue that turned into a huge fight for the couple as Kim, 37, also revealed they had rowed over her Instagram feed.
She told her older sister, Kourtney Kardashian: “He wanted to me post six Polaroids from that shoot that I posted — those nude pictures. But I posted one from the beach. He wanted them to all match up and be all from the motel. That’s what the f***ing fight was! I’m like, ‘I like the beach one.’ He’s like, ‘No, you don’t understand, I see the vision!’ ”
And the ‘All Day’ hitmaker continued to argue against his wife – even after she said she had to promote her fragrance line.
She explained: “He’s like, ‘F**k your fragrance for one day. You need six motels ones. Why’d you post the beach one? You’ve got to delete the beach one.’
“I was like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t sit here and organise my Instagram with you. Who cares about this?’ He’s like, ‘I care, trust me.’ He’s always right in the end, but I’m just like, it’s my Instagram — you can’t tell me what to post.”

Jenna Dewan steps down as World of Dance host

OHMYGOSSIP — Jenna Dewan is stepping down as the host of ‘World of Dance’.
The 37-year-old actress has confirmed she is walking away from her current role on the NBC reality competition series, although Jenna says she “won’t be able to stay away for long”.
In an Instagram post, she explained: “Hi to my World of Dance lovers! I have some news to share: I will not be returning to the show as host for season 3. But! I won’t be able to stay away for long, and plan to return to mentor contestants as much as possible (sic)”
Jenna insisted she’s relished her time on the show and thanked NBC for the opportunity.
The post continued: “It has been an absolute thrill to be a part of this incredible, groundbreaking show from the very beginning, and I am forever grateful to my @nbc family, @jlo, @derekhough @neyo and everyone involved in this journey [love heart emoji] We are changing the dance world and giving opportunities to dancers in ways I’ve only dreamed of! Can’t wait to share more news with you soon. Much love to everyone (sic)”
Jenna did not offer a specific reason for her decision to walk away from the role, but according to E! News, it was due to her hectic production schedule.
‘World of Dance’ – which is executive produced by Jennifer Lopez – will not have a host for season three, but Jenna intends to do as much mentoring as her schedule allows.
Meanwhile, Jenna and her estranged husband Channing Tatum are reportedly both “casually dating” people after their break-up earlier this year.
The celebrity duo – who are committed to co-parenting their five-year-old daughter Everly – announced their separation in April after nearly nine years of marriage, and it’s said they are taking single life as it comes.
A source explained: “Jenna is feeling ready to move on and to get back out there … [Channing is] just interested in meeting people and dating.”
