Ed Sheeran will face court over plagiarism claims

OHMYGOSSIP — Ed Sheeran will face court over claims that he plagiarised Marvin Gaye’s ‘Let’s Get It On’.
The 27-year-old musician previously denied that his 2014 single ‘Thinking Out Loud’ imitated the 1973 hit – however his bid to dismiss the lawsuit over his own song has been rejected, meaning a jury will decide whether or not he is guilty.
It has been reported District Judge Louis Stanton made the decision as he believed there were “substantial similarities between several” of the two works’ musical elements.
According to the BBC, the US judge went on to asses similarities between the tracks including bass lines, percussion the “aesthetic appeal” to listeners.
Stanton added that jurors “may be impressed by footage of a Sheeran performance which shows him seamlessly transitioning” between the two songs.
The pop star’s defence team have argued that the songs differ where Ed’s track is a “sombre, melancholic tones, addressing long lasting romantic love” while ‘Let’s Get It On’ is a “sexual anthem”.
The action has been brought against Ed, Sony/ATV Music Publishing and Atlantic Records by the estate and heirs of the late producer Ed Townsend, who co-wrote the track with Gaye.
This isn’t the first time Ed has been accused of copying the iconic single, as in 2016, heirs of Ed Townsend, who co-wrote the song with Marvin – both of whom are now dead – claimed the two tracks were “strikingly similar”.
The lawsuit states: “The defendants copied the ‘heart’ of ‘Let’s’ and repeated it continuously throughout ‘Thinking’.
“The melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic compositions of ‘Thinking’ are substantially and/or strikingly similar to the drum composition of ‘Let’s’.”
At the time, Ed denied the allegations and no further action was taken.

Eddie Redmayne recalls bubblegum-flavoured first kiss

OHMYGOSSIP — Eddie Redmayne only remembers the “taste of Hubba Bubba” bubblegum from his first kiss.
The 36-year-old actor has opened up the first time he locked lips and revealed he wast just nine when he shared a smooch with a Swedish girl.
In an interview with W magazine, he recalled: “It was at a school when I was about nine years old and the school that I was at, next door was a Swedish school. My friend was Swedish and there was a Swedish school disco and played a game of spin the bottle and if it landed on a girl, then I was gonna have to kiss them in the middle. It did land on a girl and I kissed her and I just remember the taste of Hubba Bubba. That’s my memory.”
The ‘My Week With Marilyn’ star was joined in the interview by Rami Malek, who revealed he was “very young” when he had his first kiss, because he was “jealous” his twin brother was more popular with the ladies than he was so he acted on it.
He told Eddie: “I was very, very young, and I have an identical twin brother and he did really well with people across the board and girls, as well, and I got a little jealous, you know, that he’d had his first kiss.
“He’d had a couple first kisses and I hadn’t.
“I thought, ‘You know, let’s never use this twin thing to our advantage.'”
However, when it comes to having any special skills, Eddie simply said he’s always “early” for everything.
He said: “I’m incredibly good at being early. I’m always the person who gets to the airport like a good four hours early.”
Rami admitted he’s a last minute person, adding: “If we’re going on the time thing, I manage to get to the airport about a minute or two before the plane actually takes off. I’ve never missed a flight.”
The ‘Theory of Everything’ star – who has nine-month-old Luke and two-year-old daughter Iris with his wife Hannah – says his spouse is much like Rami, always late for things, and recalled a trip they made before they were married, which he admitted could have ended their relationship then and there, when his wife held up their EasyJet flight for being late.
He remembered: “When I first went on holiday with my wife, before we were married, we were going to Italy and it was agreed that we would meet on the plane because I knew that our burgeoning relationship would not last because she’s the antithesis [of me].
“She’s like sensationally late all the time.
“And I’ll never forget, we were flying to Florence and I got on this EasyJet plane and I was sitting in the back surrounded by like three Irish monks and a nun and they were like, ‘Ladies and gentleman. I’m afraid this plane can’t take off because there’s one passenger that’s late.’
“Then my wife comes in. If we had met in the airport, I think the relationship would have died before we even started. But fortunately, there were some calming Irish monks.”

Super squatter Sir Tom Jones

OHMYGOSSIP — Sir Tom Jones does squats every morning to stay in shape.
The singing legend had his left hip replaced back in 2017 after being in constant pain with the joint for some time, and since he had his hip fixed he starts each day with ‘boxercise’ even though he is fast approaching his 80th birthday.
In an interview on UK TV show ‘This Morning’, Tom, 78, revealed: “I do some exercises in the morning when I wake up and I’m on them. That’s what I’ve been doing, squatting getting up and punching, squatting getting up punching.”
Presenter Eamonn Holmes – who underwent double hip replacement surgery at the start of 2016 – quickly asked if he was able to carry out the full workout with his false hip, to which Tom replied: “Yeah, oh yeah, it worked fantastic.”
Co-host Ruth Langsford – who is married to Eamonn – then queried whether he was doing more exercise because of his fixed hip, to which Tom answered: “Yeah. That’s my New Year’s resolution, eat less and work out more.”
The ‘It’s Not Unusual’ hitmaker – who is returning as a mentor on the new series of pop star search show ‘The Voice – went on to reveal when he first discovered his vocal talents, admitting he knew when he was at school that he could sing and he had the confidence to perform.
He said: “When I was in school, when I was a kid, I would sing something and people would say, ‘Wow that sounds great that doesn’t sound like what we’ve heard on the original.’
“Because there are a lot of singers in my family, a lot of my family sing and to cousins, they asked them, ‘What was different about Tom when he was a kid?’ They said, ‘Well the big difference with him was not only the way he sounded but he had to get on the table to perform.’ Most children they shy away in the corner and they’ve got to be coaxed to sing, apparently I wanted to get on the table so that was the big difference.”

R.Kelly’s brother opens up on sex abuse

OHMYGOSSIP — R. Kelly’s brother Carey has claimed he confided in his brother that he was being sexually abused as a child.
Lifetime aired the first part of documentary series ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ on Thursday night (03.01.19), the start of a six-episode expose which investigates long-standing allegations of sexual misconduct made against the R&B superstar by several women, accusations he vehemently denies and has threatened legal action over.
Both of Kelly’s brothers, Carey and Bruce, have been interviewed for the series and Carey alleges he was “molested by a family member” as a child, a similar claim made by Kelly in a 2016 interview with GQ magazine.
However, Carey claims that his older sibling “didn’t really respond” when he told him and didn’t want to acknowledge what he had said.
Carey said: “I was molested by a family member and that shook my world, I knew it wasn’t right even though I was six at the time. I was afraid to tell my mom. Robert, being my big brother, I brought that to him and told him what happened to me.
“And when I told him he didn’t really respond to it like I thought he should. He said, ‘Naw, that didn’t happen to you.’ I said, ‘Yes it did.’ He said, ‘No it didn’t.’ I left it at that.”
In the interview with the men’s magazine, Kelly claimed he’d been sexually abused by a relative from the age of seven or eight until he was 14 or 15.
The 51-year-old musician said: “It teaches you to definitely be sexual earlier than you should have, than you’re supposed to. You know, no different than putting a loaded gun in a kid’s hand – he gonna grow up being a shooter, probably. I think it affects you tremendously when that happens at an early age. To be more hornier. Your hormones are up more than they would normally be. Mine was.”

Amy Schumer recreates Baywatch scene in pregnancy quip

OHMYGOSSIP — Amy Schumer has recreated the running scene from ‘Baywatch’ to make light of her pregnancy sickness.
The ‘Trainwreck’ star is expecting her first child with husband Chris Fischer and has been using Instagram to document her battle with hyperemesis gravidarum – which is much more severe than morning sickness.
On Friday (04.01.18), the ‘I Feel Pretty’ actress shared a video from her holiday of her pretending to sprint along the beach like the famous scene from the Pamela Anderson-starring US TV series – which saw the stunning blonde model show off her beach body in a tight-fitted racy red swimsuit.
Referring to herself as “eye candy” in the tongue-in-cheek clip, which showed off her pregnancy body in a floral swimming costume, she captioned the post: “I puke anything I eat up until 4pm. But then I’m like…#baywatch #eyecandy #DandG (sic)”
Amy recently admitted she feels “blessed” she is able to bounce back so quickly from her sickness bouts.
Captioning a graphic video, she wrote on Instagram: “Hi I thought it might be fun to see me throwing up in a public bathroom. Deep in my second trimester and all I can say is nope! Yesterday I did a show 90 minutes later. #soblessed #godsmiracle #lepainbathroom (sic)”
The 37-year-old star previously admitted she has had a “really tough pregnancy” so far.
She explained: “I don’t like it. I’ve had a really tough pregnancy so far.”
However, that didn’t stop the 37-year-old actress and comedienne from cracking jokes about expecting a new member of the family.
She quipped: “You know who it’s not fun to be pregnant at the same time as? Meghan Markle! She’s walking around in heels and cradling her baby that’s not even there, and I’m barely wearing underwear.”
Amy revealed her hyperemesis gravidarum diagnosis when she was forced to cancel a show in Texas, as she was hospitalised due to extreme morning sickness.
She wrote: “Texas I am so deeply sorry. I have been really looking forward to these shows. I have to reschedule. I am in the hospital. I’m fine. Baby’s fine but everyone who says the 2nd trimester is better is not telling the full story. I’ve been even more ill this trimester. I have hyperemesis and it blows. Very lucky to be pregnant but this is some bulls**t! Sending so much love to the doctors and nurses taking great care of me and Tati! They are cool as hell! And Texas I am really really sorry and I’ll be out there as soon as I’m better. (sic)”

Phillip Schofield: Dancing On Ice will have first ever ‘ice cam’

OHMYGOSSIP — Phillip Schofield has revealed that ‘Dancing On Ice’ will have an “ice cam” for the first time.
The popular ITV skating show returns on Sunday (06.01.19), and the TV star revealed some exciting new developments for the new series, which includes a cameraman following the couples on the rink to bring viewer closer to the action.
Appearing on ITV’s ‘This Morning’, he said: “Happy New Year! It’s only right and proper that my first bit of TV I do after Christmas and New Year should be with you guys [on] ‘This Morning’!
“And yes, it’s a brand new rink. It’s more substantial than it was last year, you may remember, we had a rattling problem with the howling winds, so we’ve rebuilt the studio, the studio audience has a capacity of 530 so it’s bigger than it was last year, and for the first time ever we’ve got an ‘ice cam’.
“This is a bit of a twist for us, and as you can see the celebs are rehearsing and Jordan [ice cam] can be on the ice with the skaters.”
Phillip, 56, also joked about the amount of makeup and accessories used for the glamorous show even before the first episode.
He added: “I was given a piece of paper earlier on, and you know we are known for fake tan and hairspray and all that sort of stuff, but we’ve actually used 100 cans of hairspray, 200 pairs of false eyelashes, and that’s even before the series has started, so what the hell they’ve been doing with that lot I have no idea!”
Meanwhile, the star admitted he almost considered a run on the ice after skating with former co-host Christine Bleakley – who appeared on the show from 2012 to 2014 – but conceded he thought he was doing better than he actually was.
He said: “Well you know me, initially I wasn’t allowed because of the health and safety, and then we were actively encouraged, so I did get on with Christine Bleakley when she was hosting the show with me, but quite frankly the greatest disappointment for me is that I rehearsed and rehearsed and rehearsed [the routine] with Christine… and I thought that went really well. Then I watched it back and I was going so slow!”
‘Dancing On Ice’ returns on Sunday (06.01.19) at 6pm.

WWE legend Gene Okerlund dies aged 76

OHMYGOSSIP — WWE legend ‘Mean’ Gene Okerlund has died aged 76.
The Hall of Famer – who made his name as one of the most iconic interviewers in the history of the wrestling business – sadly passed away one year after he was last seen on TV.
In a statement, WWE said: “WWE is saddened to learn that WWE Hall of Famer Gene Okerlund, the most recognisable interviewer in sports-entertainment history, has passed away at age 76.”
He first joined WWE in 1984 and became a staple of its TV programming through his entertaining skits with the likes of close friend Hulk Hogan, ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage and the Ultimate Warrior.
Okerlund played a huge part in the company’s expansion around the world when Vince McMahon signed him up after his time in the American Wrestling Alliance, and he went on to host shows like ‘Tuesday Night Titans’, ‘Wrestling Challenge’ and ‘Prime Time Wrestling’.
He later joined WCW in 1993 as lead interviewer, working with legends of the industry including Sting, Goldberg and Diamond Dallas Page.
The charismatic star would continue to appear on WWE TV over the years after returning to commentate on the Gimmick Battle Royal at WrestleMania 17, and more recently, he was a cast member on the WWE Network show ‘Legends’ House’.
He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006 by Hogan, who offered a simple tribute on social media.
He wrote: “Mean Gene I love you my brother HH (sic)”
Current WWE boss Triple H tweeted: “A voice and sound track to an entire era of our industry. He was the star of some of @WWE’s most memorable segments.
“‘Mean Gene’ was beloved by all who got to work with him. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time. (sic)”
Fellow Hall of Famer ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin was also among the many stars and fans to pay their respects.
He said: “Just heard Mean Gene Okerlund has passed away. As an interviewer, pitch man, announcer, or host, he was untouchable. Simply the best.
“Total professional with quick wit, sarcasm, humor, and that golden voice. Condolences to his friends and family. (sic)”
Longtime WWE referee Charles Robinson also paid tribute.
He said: “So sad to hear of the passing of one of the greatest voices in wrestling. Mean Gene you will be missed and we will continue to love you. What a true class act. I am very fortunate to work with you. (sic)”

Olivia Munn spent New Year’s Eve with her ‘new boyfriend’

OHMYGOSSIP — Olivia Munn was spotted looking cosy with her rumoured new boyfriend Tucker Roberts on New Year’s Eve (31.12.18).
The Hollywood actress celebrated the turn off the year alongside Tucker – who is the president of Philadelphia Fusion, a professional Overwatch e-sports team – at famed manager Scooter Braun’s party.
At one point in the evening, Olivia – who previously dated sports star Aaron Rodgers – was seen sitting on the lap of her rumoured love interest, according to ‘Entertainment Tonight’.
Tucker was also seen with his arms around the 38-year-old actress.
However, the duo – who were also recently seen together in Los Angeles – have so far remained tight-lipped about their relationship status.
Meanwhile, Olivia previously admitted to taking dating advice from fellow Hollywood star Jamie Foxx, likening him to a “big brother”.
She said that Jamie gave her a big confidence boost with his dating tips when she was “feeling depressed” over a guy at a party.
Olivia shared: “I’m on one side of this party and he’s on the other side, talking to different girls and stuff, and I’m feeling so depressed. I decided to leave early, and then Jamie stops me and he’s like, ‘Where are you going? Is he the reason you’re leaving?’
“He didn’t do anything wrong. I really want him to be my boyfriend, but I don’t think that’s what he wants. I’m just gonna go home.
“He’s [Jamie’s] like, ‘Go home. I’m going to call you later and if you don’t pick up, I’m going to leave you a voicemail!”
Olivia swiftly left the bash and went home and received a “sweet” voicemail from Jamie.
She recalled: “He left a voicemail and said, ‘Did you come out here to be somebody’s girlfriend? No! Did you come out here to be somebody’s wife? No! Did you come out here just to date this guy? No! Did you come out here to be an actress? Yes!’
“‘Don’t you ever, let me see you cry about some guy like that ever again! Don’t you ever let some other guy make you feel like that ever again!'”

Chrissy Teigen plans to go ‘looking for her eyeball’

OHMYGOSSIP — Chrissy Teigen has joked she plans to return to Times Square following her embarrassing New Year’s Eve gaffe.
The 33-year-old model suffered a painful-looking injury at the iconic landmark in New York City, where she went to give comedian Leslie Jones a celebratory hug and was accidentally poked in the eye by the tip of her umbrella.
Making light of the incident – which was captured by TV cameras – Chrissy joked on Twitter: “7am. Heading back out to time’s square to find my eyeball (sic)”
Leslie, 51 – who is a cast member and writer on ‘Saturday Night Live’ – quickly offered an apology to Chrissy via the micro-blogging platform.
She wrote: “Ugh I can’t believe I hit @chrissyteigen in face!! Lordt!! I love you boo!! So sorry!! #thatswhyihateumbrellas (sic)”
Meanwhile, Chrissy previously claimed that the internet has changed her life.
The world-famous model – who is married to musician John Legend – admitted that her use of Twitter and other social media platforms has changed the public’s perception of her.
She shared: “Guys have always come up to me since I did Sports Illustrated. But now, they all say the same thing: ‘My girlfriend loves you.’ And I couldn’t be happier.”
Chrissy also claimed that one of the keys to her relationship with John – who is one of the world’s best-selling musicians – is their contrasting personalities.
The high-profile duo have been married since 2013 and Chrissy feels that in many ways, they are the perfect foils for each other.
She explained: “He’s quieter than me, which isn’t saying much. But he’s more thoughtful, whereas I’m spur of the moment.
“I can’t hide things very well. If I feel it, you’ll see it on my face, but he’s better at covering. I was never that big into music. Still to this day, I’m very Top 40. And I’m more emotion-based than him. I can see everybody’s side of an argument.”

“We’re keeping it civil and hopefully we can remain friends. We’ll always have a future because she’s the mother of my children.”
Ben is set to play rugby in New York over the next few months, and he expects the pop star is excited about the prospect of visiting the Big Apple.
He told Now magazine: “I signed for New York Rugby United so things are going to change. It’s just exciting – a different change of pace, something that’s really needed.

Kim Kardashian West ‘is expecting her fourth child viaa surrogate’

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West is reportedly expecting her fourth child via a surrogate.
The 38-year-old reality TV star and her rapper husband Kanye West – who have five-year-old North, Saint, three, and 11-month old Chicago – are planning to have another child with the same surrogate who carried their daughter Chicago, according to Us Weekly.
The celebrity couple turned to surrogacy after the ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star was advised not to have anymore children for medical reasons – and the pair have supposedly used their remaining fertilised embryo to have a baby boy in May.
Speaking about surrogacy, Kim previously said: “I would have maybe one more [child]. I really, really enjoyed the surrogacy process.
“I will say, when it came to the breastfeeding time, I was like, ‘Okay, this is the best decision I ever made.'”
Meanwhile, Kim previously revealed that becoming a mother has changed her outlook on life, insisting she now “doesn’t give a f**k about anything” other than her family.
She said: “Being a mom just not makes you give a f**k about anything else but what’s immediately going on inside, like in your home, in your family – like all the other stuff kind of fades away.
“Nothing matters but your family, so I think it really helps you centre and get grounded.”
Kim also believes that her authentic nature is one of the reasons behind her success and that of her siblings.
She reflected: “I think our family is definitely really relatable. I mean, we know that we definitely show a side that’s not as relatable, but I think it’s the balance of being in between, of seeing us come up and doing that with us and sharing those experiences with us.
“I think it’s because [fans] can sense our authenticity with one another.”

Abbey Clancy reveals pregnancy joy

OHMYGOSSIP — Abbey Clancy is expecting her fourth child with Peter Crouch.
The 32-year-old model – who already has kids Sophia, seven, Liberty, three, and 11-month-old Johnny with the soccer star – has revealed her pregnancy news via her Instagram account.
Alongside a snap of her growing baby bump, Abbey wrote: “When a hatrick just wont do !!!#babynumber4 (sic)”
Abbey – who has been married to Peter since 2011 – took the snap during a day out at the beach in Dubai, where she’s enjoying a holiday with some of her friends.
The blonde beauty was seen taking a stroll along the sand with her bump proudly on show.
Despite her obvious joy, Abbey previously claimed she wasn’t sure whether she would have any more kids.
She shared: “I think I’m so lucky, I have three healthy kids and I’ve got two girls and one boy, but no I don’t want another one…
“If it happens it wouldn’t be the end of the world, but going through what I went through being pregnant with Johnny it definitely does put me off a bit. It was quite a bad time but worth it in the end.”
Although she loves the challenge of raising her kids, Abbey admitted that her most recent pregnancy was a really arduous experience.
In fact, Abbey’s difficult pregnancy also impacted her relationship with her other two kids.
The model explained: “With my last baby I was so ill, I was in bed for nine months and in hospital a few times. I was constantly throwing up 24/7.
“It was a really tough pregnancy and I couldn’t spend a lot of quality time with my two other children.”

AJ Pritchard hires bodyguard following nightclub attack

OHMYGOSSIP — AJ Pritchard has “hired a bodyguard” after he and his brother Curtis Pritchard were attacked in a nightclub.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ pro and his fellow dancer sibling were allegedly set upon by a group of up to eight men, leaving Curtis with torn knee cartilage and the pair with several bruises, and it has now been claimed AJ is so “traumatised” by the attack that he’s hired security to make sure he’s safe in public in the future.
A TV source said: “AJ has hired a bodyguard to protect him over the coming weeks. He has been left traumatised by the assault, and while his confidence is growing he feels really nervous about the idea of going out in public.
“He’s worried about a possible revenge attack and wanted to have someone with him for the next month or so to help make him feel safe again.”
Both AJ and Curtis have been vocal about the attack, and whilst the pair wanted to speak out to condemn their alleged attackers, AJ is concerned they could now be targeted again.
The source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column: “AJ wanted to speak out about everything that happened but knows it could have made him a target again. He’s not taking any chances.
“The pair are keen to make sure the perpetrators are brought to justice and are working with the police to try to identify their attackers on social media.
“They don’t like the idea that these blokes are on the loose and could harm others.”
Meanwhile, 24-year-old AJ recently revealed he now fears going out in “larger crowds” after the attack.
He said: “It [the incident] has made me very aware of putting myself in a scenario of larger crowds.
“Obviously I’m doing the ‘Strictly’ tour coming up and I will think twice …
“The really sad thing in this scenario was that we were just out to have a good time, and it came from nowhere.
“There was none of us in the first place causing a hassle or anything, we were not there for that scenario, that’s what is really sad for us.”

Kanye West’s kids ‘stabilise’ him

OHMYGOSSIP — Kanye West’s children “stabilise” him.
The ‘Gold Digger’ hitmaker – who is reportedly set to become a father for the fourth time as he and his wife Kim Kardashian West are expecting another child through a surrogate – loves how his kids don’t “judge” him.
A source told People magazine: “Kanye says that being a dad is the most important thing that he does, and despite his other problems, he’s an involved, loving dad to his kids. He loves the innocence of children; they’re not judging him. They don’t care what he does for a living. They don’t read the tabloids. To them, he’s just Dad … You should see him when he gets around the kids; he lights up. He smiles, he plays with them, he is genuinely excited to be around them and they respond the same way to him. They stabilise him. It’s almost like a physical change.”
And Kanye is keen to have as many kids as possible, according to his wife Kim, who revealed she wants “seven” children in total.
Speaking to her friend Larsa Pippen on the reality show, her children got brought up and she said: “Kanye wants to have more, though. He’s been harassing me. He wants like seven. He’s like stuck in seven.
“[Seven kids is] crazy. I could never, especially in like the world we live in … I’ve been kinda hesitant about having more kinds because it literally keeps me up at night, thinking about how my kids will survive in a crazy world like this.”

Kevin Smith working on Jay and Silent Bob reboot

OHMYGOSSIP — Kevin Smith is working on a ‘Jay and Silent Bob’ reboot.
The 48-year-old filmmaker rose to prominence after the 1994 movie ‘Clerks’ – which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and acted in as the character Silent Bob of stoner duo Jay and Silent Bob – and in a tweet posted on Wednesday (02.01.19), the star confirmed he’d been working on a reboot of the popular characters.
He tweeted: “Spent the first day of 2019 having a #JayAndSilentBobReboot pre-pre-production meeting at our holiday-roomy @WeWork office! @JayMewes took this pic of me and @JordanMonsanto to both mark the moment and to document that we were the only dopes in Hollywood working on the holiday. (sic)”
Kevin first announced the project in August 2017, but it seems the film is finally set to launch its pre-production stages, which he will work on alongside Jay Mewes and producer Jordan Monsanto.
After making their first appearance in ‘Clerks’, Jay and Silent Bob appeared in more of Kevin’s work, including ‘Mallrats’, ‘Chasing Amy’, ‘Dogma’, ‘Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back’, and 2006’s ‘Clerks 2’, where they made their final appearance.
Plans to launch pre-production last year were halted after Kevin suffered a massive heart attack in late February, after which he claimed he would have died if he hadn’t gone to hospital for treatment and subsequently worked hard on a weight loss plan.
In October, Kevin revealed he’s managed to drop below 200 pounds for “the first time since High School.”
He said: “The scale said 198 today! This is the first time since High School that I’ve weighed under 200 pounds! Never… NEVER imagined I could get here again but a heart attack can be a great motivator. (sic)”
As of the time of writing, there’s no planned release date for the ‘Jay and Silent Bob’ reboot.

Toni Braxton is single again

OHMYGOSSIP — Toni Braxton has hinted that she has ended her engagement.
The ‘Long As I Live’ hitmaker has appeared to suggest she has split from Bryan ‘Birdman’ Williams in a cryptic post to mark the New Year.
She wrote on Instagram: “Starting a new chapter isn’t alway an easy choice … but ALWAYS choose to be chosen. Cheers to a new year (sic)”
Toni and Birdman – who started dating in May 2016 and confirmed their engagement in February last year – have also unfollowed each other on the social media site Instagram and have deleted their own posts about one another.
News of their split may come as shock as Birdman previously described his now ex-fiancée Toni as his “life” and his “everything”.
He said at the time: “T, that’s my girl, my friend, my family. That’s my love, my soldier, my life. She’s my everything. She’s my life. I love her to death.”
He also gushed over Toni’s mother Evelyn, adding: “For me, it was just hard to accept love from them. I think Miss E, Miss Evelyn, she’s an angel. She did a great job with all her girls. For me, just growing up in the streets, not having the word love, it was hard for me to accept them loving me and appreciating the love that I brought to the table.”
Back in November, the couple admitted they were struggling to find a wedding date.
She shared: “We were doing ‘Braxton Family Values’. We were going through a little drama. I was like okay, the wedding – it’s a good thing to get all the sisters together. But I couldn’t get us all together. The wedding is not a good reason because it’s messing up my relationship a little bit. He’s like, ‘Come on, Michelle [her middle name], set a date.'”
