Eiza Gonzalez: I want to make Latina women proud

OHMYGOSSIP — Eiza Gonzalez wants her career to make Latina women “proud”.
The 28-year-old actress has said that her main goal is to “represent” her fellow Latina women in movies “in a way where they feel proud”, and says she’s thankful to her family for helping her stay grounded, even when she constantly worries about people being “disappointed” in her.
She said: “I had a conversation with my mom. Two days ago, she was with me on the set of ‘Hobbs & Shaw’. I sat down with her and I looked at her and I said, ‘I am scared.’ And she said, ‘What do you mean?’ I was like, ‘I’m just scared this is going to be the end?’ I’m still a woman. I’m still insecure and I fear when you’re like, ‘This is too good to be true!’ I’m so determined and I always want to do the best job that I can. I’m such a perfectionist that if I’m not then I feel like people are going to be disappointed in me.
“All I care is representing Latina women in a way where they feel proud. So that is daunting too. But that’s the beauty of having a beautiful family. She looked at me and said, ‘All that matters, babe, is to be a good person. Continue to be the loving, thoughtful girl that you are and that will bring things to your life.'”
And the ‘Welcome to Marwen’ star has learned plenty of lessons during her time as an actress – which began in Mexico when she was just 13 years old – including learning to be “proud” of all her roles, no matter how small they might seem.
Speaking to ‘Entertainment Tonight’, she said: “Everything’s a lesson. [I’ve learned] that you should also be proud of everything you do. There’s no small things in life. There’s this stigma of doing soap operas and I’m like, soap operas prepped me. I would have never been ready for this. The things that you learn, the discipline and work ethic that you have to have at 13 in a soap opera, that keeps on going every single day and you have to shoot 100 scenes. That’s a lesson. That prepped me to be really well prepared for when I came to America. Every single step down the line has been a massive lesson to me in what not to do too.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Khloe Kardashian has heaped praise on her “strong and fabulous” mother.
The 34-year-old reality star took to Instagram on Saturday (22.12.18) to share a glowing tribute to her mother Kris Jenner, as she dubbed her as a “Queen” and praised her for raising “multiple mini Queens” in the form of Khloe herself, as well as her sisters Kim Kardashian West, Kourtney Kardashian, and Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
Posting a picture of herself and Kris at a party, Khloe wrote: “You are a Queen who has raised multiple mini Queens still trying to be as strong and fabulous as you are! I will love you more and more everyday Until the end of time (sic)”
The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star’s thoughtful post comes just days after she quipped that their close family friends John Legend and Chrissy Teigen will want to get a “restraining order” against Kris, after she continued to hound her followers and her friends with her constant shout outs about the couple’s festive show, ‘A Legendary Christmas with John & Chrissy’.
Kris had shared a poster for the NBC variety show, which first aired on November 28, and featured guest appearances from herself, daughter Kim Kardashian West and the likes of Stevie Wonder and Meghan Trainor on Instagram, and captioned the post: “If you missed #ALegendaryChristmas, don’t worry, it’s back tomorrow night!! You know I’ll be watching again!! (sic)”
‘Revenge Body’ star Khloe then commented: “Mom I feel like they may get a restraining order against you soon”, along with the peeled eyes emoji.

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West’s daughter North has a “squishy” Christmas tree.
The 38-year-old reality star has splashed out on a special tree for her eldest child this festive season, as she revealed the five-year-old tot has a soft tree in her bedroom, complete with squishable ornaments which she and her mother decorated together.
Speaking to Busy Philipps in special bonus footage of ‘Busy Tonight’, she said: “I got North an all Squishy tree with ornaments that are Squishies. She’s gonna be in heaven when we decorate it tomorrow.”
The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star is hosting the annual Christmas Eve (24.12.18) party for her famous family this year, and has said that whilst she’s not usually one to go overboard with festive decorations, she’s had whole “teams” of people lending her a hand this year.
She added to Busy: “Because we’re throwing the Christmas Eve party this year, I feel like I have to get the teams in to figure it out and really step it up. We’re usually really simple, just like twinkle lights but not a lot of decorations … so I gotta figure it out.”
Her comments come as she recently expressed her excitement on social media at the prospect of letting her fans see her elaborate decorations.
She wrote on Twitter: “Wait until you see our Christmas decor. I’m gonna wait until Christmas Eve to show you guys! It’s sooooo good!!! (sic)”
The Kardashian and Jenner family usually come together to create their own Christmas card every year and it appeared Kim was organising it this year as she gave fans updates online.
She said at the time: “We’re on set today for a secret project … I’m here with all my sisters and my mom. Do you think I should pop up on them with a photographer and shoot our family Christmas card? I think I can get this done.
“All right, so I can maybe pull this off in about an hour, but do we want a sister [and] mom Christmas card? Or do we want all the kids in it? I mean, I can try and get the kids here and surprise everyone. What do I do, guys? Christmas card today?”

Offset hints he’ll ‘change his ways’ after meeting with Cardi B in Puerto Rico

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Offset has hinted he’ll “change his ways” following his vacation in Puerto Rico with estranged wife Cardi B.
The former couple split up a few weeks ago, and since then the Migos rapper has been determined to win back the ‘Bodak Yellow’ hitmaker, as he turned up at one of her concerts to beg for her forgiveness.
And although Cardi seemed adamant that they wouldn’t get back together, the pair were spotted enjoying some sun on the back of a jet ski in the Caribbean island this weekend.
Now, Offset has taken to Instagram to share a picture of himself from his 27th birthday last weekend – in which he wore a $11,000, custom-made Laurel Dewitt Swarovski crystal ski mask and matching jacket – and quoted lyrics from the late Michael Jackson’s hit ‘Man in the Mirror’.
He wrote: “I M S E A R C H I N G F O R T H E
“M A N I N T H E M I R R O R
“I M T E L L I N G H I M T O
“C H A N G E H I S W A Y S (sic)”
As of the time of writing, it’s unknown whether Offset’s lyrical reference had anything to do with his ongoing marital problems.
Meanwhile, Cardi had reportedly been planning spend Christmas with Offset for the sake of their daughter Kulture.
A source said recently: “Cardi B wants Offset to be a part of Kulture’s life and wants him to spend Christmas with his daughter. It’s Kulture’s first Christmas and it means a lot to Cardi to have the family together … She plans to spend time and celebrate the holiday [in the Dominican Republic].”

Leah Remini: Jennifer Lopez slapped me so hard I cried from laughing

By
Ohmygossip.com
-

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Lopez made Leah Remini “cry from laughter” when she slapped her best friend on the set of ‘Second Act’.
The 49-year-old singer and actress stars with her close friend Leah in the new movie, and managed to make her burst into tears through intense laughter after an improvised scene ended in a jovial “slap”.
In one scene, Leah’s character Joan gives her best friend Maya (Jennifer) a pep talk before applying to a high-ranking corporate job, and Leah decided to improvise a little by calling on the phrase “Who’s the champ?”, which she often tells Jennifer before her concerts.
Leah, 48, said: “This time I decided I’d slap her. She slapped me back so hard it made me cry from laughter.”
The pair had a “natural chemistry” on set as they’ve been close friends for years, and Leah claims the bond on-screen looked so “real” because they ended up “improvising” so much that the final product was the two actresses showcasing their own relationship.
She added to Entertainment Weekly magazine: “A lot of it was improvised. Her reaction is always funny because that’s her reaction to me; she rolls her eyes a lot if I grab her boob or annoy her … Annoying her makes me laugh, so I’d do different things in different takes, so you’re seeing her real reactions.
“When you have a real relationship with somebody, you can’t write that stuff. I’m comfortable with her; I’m used to cuddling up to her, to grabbing her arm when we walk, and she’s used to grabbing my arm when we walk. There are little things [in here] where you go, ‘This is our relationship.'”
Earlier this month, the pair heaped braise on each other during a separate interview, where Leah said the ‘On The Floor’ hitmaker was “loving” and “authentic”.
She said: “She’s loving, warm, fiercely loyal, courageous, brave, true, authentic … there’s a lot of things.”
And Jennifer added: “We understand each other’s lives. I’m so close to my sisters and so is Leah, but we have similar lives. We have similar careers, so we understand nuances that other people don’t understand. That also bonded us, I think.”

Cardi B turns down Super Bowl

By

-

OHMYGOSSIP — Cardi B turned down the Super Bowl halftime show.
The 26-year-old rapper is believed to have been asked to take to the stage alongside Maroon 5 on February 3 in Atlanta to perform their collaboration ‘Girls Like You’ but Cardi refused to take part in support of Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback who started the take-a-knee protest movement in response to racial inequality.
A representative for Cardi told the New York Post’s Page Six: “The report circulating that she wants a million dollars and she wants her own set is false. There was never a firm offer to begin with for a performance. There [were] talks about it, but she was not particularly interested in participating because of how she feels about Colin Kaepernick and the whole movement . . . But again, there was never a solid offer for her to say yes or no to regarding the Super Bowl. She is already confirmed to do a set with Bruno Mars that weekend.”
It had been claimed that Cardi demanded one million dollars and a solo performance slot to take part.
Meanwhile, Soulja Boy recently defended Travis Scott amid a backlash over reports he will be playing at the halftime show.
Soulja Boy said: “I feel like everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It’s a very tricky situation because you are involving politics with sports, which should not be mixed.
“I feel like the NFL should be on its own and everybody should have fun … It should be a positive, fun, happy thing.
“You know what I’m saying? And everybody enjoying the football game. It shouldn’t be about all of the controversy behind it and the politics.”
Although guest performers for Maroon 5’s set are yet to be officially confirmed, Travis’ potential involvement has already been blasted by a number of music stars.
Meek Mill tweeted: “He don’t need that he on fire already! Stay strong in this s**t! (sic)”
Rihanna also previously turned down the gig in support of Kaepernick.

Drew Barrymore: ‘Co-parenting isn’t easy’

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Drew Barrymore says co-parenting with her former husband isn’t easy.
The 43-year-old actress split from Will Kopelman in 2016 after almost four years of marriage and although the pair have remained close while raising their daughters Olive, six and four-year-old Frankie, Drew admitted co-parenting can be challenging.
She wrote on Instagram: “Will and I continue to marvel at what we made and try to be the best co parents we can be. It’s not always easy and the point is…nothing in life is. But it doesn’t mean that any bitter outweighs the sweet! (sic).”
Although Drew didn’t get the “Happy Ever After” she had planned, she says she would go through her marriage and divorce again in order to become a parent to their daughters.
She explained: “Once upon a time… I remember reading an article that said I had gotten my happy ending after all. Looking [back], it sure looked that way.
“And then, like many times in life for all of us, our plans change and our dreams are adjusted. But that doesn’t mean that every second wasn’t worth it. And if that DeLorean time machine pulled up every day, I would do it all over again.”
“After all, I did get my dream. 2 healthy girls (sic).”
Drew – who was married to Tom Green from 2001 to 2002, and Jeremy Thomas from 1994 to 1995 – previously admitted she tends to remain friendly with her exes.
Speaking in 2009 about previous boyfriends, she said: “[They] are really important to me, and I am very close with them.
“Just because the ‘in love’ doesn’t work doesn’t mean the love goes away.”

The healing that needs to take place is a must! I don’t wanna destroy another relationship. Blessings to him, his family and ministry. #FEARLESS (sic)”

She said: “I’d been there before in that darkness. I was like, ‘No, you better go [to the hospital].’ By the time I got there, I was stable. However, I would’ve understood if he left. He’s been praying for a wife. He didn’t pray for a depressed wife.”
However, Chad stayed and the couple were better than ever.
She added: “It’s not just about marrying Chad. I finally found someone to do life with.”

Today I proudly, happily and healthily stand here as someone who will continue to always lead by example as I tirelessly advocate for betterment of those in need.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Hailee Steinfeld would love a Spider-Gwen spin-off.
The 22-year-old actress voices the character in ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ and revealed she would jump at the chance to take part in a spin-off film.

And it was one of those things where you hear about the directors were so excited about how she was coming together, and the outfits, her look as a whole… I was hearing all about it. It was one of those things where I was like, ok, now they’re going to show me a sketch and I’m going to have to act like it’s great… And sure enough when they showed it to me… like I said, this is the coolest thing ever and too bad this isn’t live-action, because I wish I actually look like that.”

David Bowie feared assassination attempt in Ireland

By
Helena-Reet Ennet

OHMYGOSSIP — David Bowie feared he would be assassinated by a sniper at a concert in Ireland.
The 69-year-old star passed away in 2016 after a secret battle with cancer but Irish musician Christy Dignam, of rock band Aslan, has revealed that David was terrified about an assassination attempt when he took to the stage at Slane castle in Ireland in 1987.
Speaking on Virgin Media One’s ‘Six O’Clock Show’, Christy – whose band supported Bowie at the gig – said: “At the time Bowie didn’t want to meet us, because he was over here as an Englishman in Ireland during the Troubles, and [John] Lennon was after being shot a couple of years before that. He was real paranoid, because when he was going on stage, we were backstage and he went on in a military formation.
“There was about 12 or 16 of them in the band, and they were all dressed in grey boiler suits, so if there was a sniper there they could not have picked out which one was Bowie.”
Although Aslan tried and failed to get Bowie’s autograph after the Slane concert, they bumped into the star years later when he confessed the security measures he had taken to protect himself in Ireland.
Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that David wouldn’t let his Glastonbury Festival headline set be aired live in 2000.
The late music icon played on the Pyramid Stage 18 years ago, but the BBC weren’t allowed to show more than half an hour from the career-spanning performance.
Mark Cropper – who has long been the producer of the BBC’s coverage of the Worthy Farm festival – said: “I think Bowie knew exactly what he was doing on the night of 25 June 2000.
“He wasn’t about to give away his peak performance for nothing.
“He hoarded that night so that one day it could be shown in all its glory as his legacy, the culmination of his golden years and surely his greatest concert since he buried Ziggy Stardust at Hammersmith in July 1973.
“It’s a time capsule of his life, ready to be shared with us now that the stars have aligned.”
The legendary headline performance was released in full for the first time in November.

Anthea Turner blasted by sister

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Anthea Turner’s sister has opened up about their feud.
The TV presenter and her sibling Wendy Turner Webster have not spoken in two years due to a falling out over a loan Anthea made to Wendy and Wendy has blasted her sibling for pushing her “to the edge of madness”.
In an interview with the Daily Mirror, she said: “I’m profoundly hurt my own sister could behave in a way that has taken me to the edge of madness.
“It’s why I’ve had to cut all ties with Anthea – and it gives me no pleasure to have to say that in public.
“As I sit here, all I feel is sadness and regret and bitter disappointment that money could have come between us quite so catastrophically.”
Wendy, 51, claims she borrowed money off Anthea, 58, to tide her and her husband over while they waited for a commission from a business deal but when the commission did not come through, Wendy alleges Anthea pressured them to repay the debt.
She said: “We will always be eternally grateful to Anthea for helping us out of what we believed was a temporary hole.
“We would never have accepted the loan if we were in any doubt about being able to repay it.
“She knew we were working hard to achieve that yet she turned the screws tighter and tighter.
“She bombarded us with emails and calls demanding to know when she was going to get her money.
“All we could do was apologise and assure her we were working night and day.”
However, sources close to Anthea say her and Wendy’s parents Brian, 85, and Jean, 88, will be “heartbroken to read Wendy’s twisted version after ¬everything Anthea has done to help”.

Dominic West suggests transgender James Bond

By

OHMYGOSSIP — Dominic West thinks it would be “cool” to have a transgender James Bond.
The ‘Colette’ actor initially admitted he “doesn’t see” the idea of a female in the role of the iconic spy, but then suggested Hannah Graf – the highest-ranked transgender soldier in the British army – would be ideal for the role.
Asked about the idea of a female Bond, he said: “Well …I think some of these things are gender specific. So I don’t see it myself.
“Maybe a transgender Bond would be cool. Yes, there’s a very cool woman who’s the wife of an actor [Jake Graf] in ‘Colette’, who is a captain in the electrical engineers, the highest-ranking transgender soldier in the army.
“She’s done two tours of Afghanistan. She’s a beautiful blonde girl who could be Bond, yes. That’s actually a brilliant idea. T
“hey should have a transgender Bond because there are a lot of transgender people in the army.
“They’d be ideal because they can do everything. That’s a great idea! A transgender Bond.”
The 49-year-old actor also admitted he’s jump at the chance to take over as 007 from Daniel Craig.
He told the Sunday Times magazine: “[I’d give it to] me. I think we need an older Bond.
“Of course I would [take it], but I don’t think I will be [offered the role].”
A few years ago, Dominic was so convinced his ‘The Wire’ co-star Idris Elba would land the coveted role, he tried to bet “as much as [he] could” on his friend being cast, but was blocked by bookmakers.
He said: “I thought, this is easy money, Idris is definitely going to get it.
“I had no inside information, but I was convinced, so I thought I might as well cash in. I was going to put a lot of money on it. As much as I could.”
However, after sending his nephew to place the wager, he learned there’d been a cap placed on how much could be bet on the ‘Luther’ star, and that the odds “were pretty rubbish”, so decided against it.

Spice Girls plan lyric change

By
Helena-Reet Ennet
-

OHMYGOSSIP — The Spice Girls are considering changing the lyrics to some of their most famous hits.
The ‘Wannabe’ hitmakers are currently preparing for a reunion tour in 2019 but Mel B, Melanie C, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner are in talks to alter the line from ‘Spice Up Your Life’ that sees them sing about a “yellow man in Timbuktu”.
Mel and Melanie in particular are said to have rowed over the words, with the ‘Going Down’ hitmaker suggesting they should change the words to “happy people” instead.
A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: “The original lyric was meant to be a bit of fun and never intended to be offensive.
“The reality is it’s not acceptable to say that now. Some of the girls feel uncomfortable getting up on stage and performing that lyric, especially when they have such a diverse and multicultural fanbase.
“They pride themselves on standing for inclusivity, so they don’t want to run the risk of offending anybody.”
And that’s not the only song under scrutiny as they are also unsure about some of their other raunchier lyrics, such as those found in ‘First Time Lover’ and ‘2 Become 1’.
The insider added: “In light of the #MeToo era, they are being extra-cautious.
“They don’t want anything to overshadow their reunion for the wrong reasons.”
Meanwhile, the quartet’s rehearsals for the comeback shows have also hit a snag after ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge Mel suffered three broken ribs and other injuries in a fall earlier this month, putting their plans on hold.
A source said: “It is estimated she will take eight to 12 weeks to fully heal, which sets them back massively.”
The group – without Victoria Beckham – will be returning to the stage in May.

Aled Jones’ traditional Christmas

OHMYGOSSIP — Aled Jones enjoys a “traditional” Christmas.
The ‘Walking in the Air’ hitmaker – who has children Emilia, 16, and Lucas, 13, with wife Claire Fosset – believes December 25 is an important day for family and they try to put the youngsters at the heart of their celebrations, echoing his own childhood.
He said: “It’s important to have family time. Our Christmas is so traditional – we play loads of carols and Christmas songs and when the kids were little, we’d put out carrots for the reindeer.
“When they were younger, we’d see Christmas very much through their eyes and think back to when we were kids and about people who aren’t here any more, like my nan, who would always let me win at games at Christmas.
“For me, it’s a really important time to connect with family, eat and drink loads, laugh at rubbish jokes and watch stuff on TV. I love festive TV.”
The family have an early start on Christmas Day – but never as early as Aled, 47, once got his parents up on the big day.
He wrote in a guest column for Closer magazine: “We’re usually up by 9am at the latest. We always do presents first – I would never make my kids wait.
“My daughter takes about an hour to open her presents while my son takes 60 seconds. He’s like the Tasmanian Devil!
“When I was a kid, the earliest I ever got up was at 2.30am, when my mum and dad found me sitting on a bike that I’d already unwrapped.”

Barbara Windsor doing really well

OHMYGOSSIP — Barbara Windsor is doing “really well”.
The 81-year-old actress has been battling Alzheimer’s disease since 2014 but she’s still in good spirits and enjoying socialising and seeing her friends, who are impressed by the way she’s retained her long-term memory, even though her short-term recall isn’t great.
Her pal Paul O’Grady said: “Barbara is a sweetheart. We are in touch all the time. People write her off, but she’s doing really well. She went to the panto the other night and to ’42nd Street’.
“I ran into her and said, ‘What’s your mum’s Co-op number, can you remember?’
“She told me then said, ‘How the hell do we remember that?’ I said, ‘Do you remember me?’And she said, ‘You’re hard to ever forget.’ ”
The ‘For the Love of Dogs’ star admitted the ‘Carry On’ actress sometimes repeats herself because she’s forgotten what she’s said, but her friends and family take it in their stride and continue their conversation as normal.
He told the Sun on Sunday newspaper: “If she does repeat herself, you just answer it and carry on like you haven’t heard it before.”
Barbara’s husband, Scott Mitchell – who went public with her illness earlier this year – recently recalled the emotional moment when the British star was diagnosed by her doctor.
He said: “We were sitting down and Dr Kennedy said, ‘Look I’m really sorry, it is Alzheimer’s.’ And Barbara just looked at me and said, ‘I’m so sorry.'”
Although Scott, 55, had noticed she’d become increasingly forgetful, he was still shocked by the diagnosis.
He shared: “First you think it’s because she’s getting older – she was in her 70s then – and I accepted that as par for the course.
“It’s been such a gradual thing, I said, ‘First of all you’re getting forgetful and I think we ought to see someone because if there is wear and tear we may be able to get something to help it’ and I was faced with no resistance, so I was really lucky in that sense.
“Deep down I didn’t think it would be what it was, I just wanted to be safe.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicki Minaj’s boyfriend has had a huge tribute to her tattooed on his neck.
The 36-year-old rapper has only been romancing Kenneth Petty for a few weeks but it seems things are already getting serious between them as he’s made a public and permanent declaration of love by getting ‘Onika’ – the ‘Barbie Dreams’ hitmaker’s real first name – inked on his neck.
Nicki showed off the body art on her Instagram account in a video which she captioned: ” “Did ya tat hurt zaddy? his first tat- frontin like it didn’t sting #Onika #HeavyOnIt #SuperSleezy (sic)”
Earlier this month, Nicki made their romance Instagram official when she shared a photo of them taken during her birthday celebrations in Turks and Caicos.
She captioned the post: “Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happens?… it’s no secret… that the both of us… are running out of time…(sic)”
The ‘Superbass’ hitmaker also spoke out to defend her 40-year-old partner after it was revealed he is a level two sex offender, who was convicted of attempted rape in 1995.
She wrote in response to her critics: “He was 15, she was 16… in a relationship. But go [off] internet. Ya’ll can’t run my life. Ya’ll can’t even run ya’ll own life.(sic)”
She then shared two other photos of them together and wrote: “Oh they wanna talk? Let’s give’m [something] to talk about.(sic)”
Meanwhile, Nicki’s former boyfriend, Meek Mill – who she dated from 2015 to 2017 – recently admitted she’s blocked him from her social media accounts.
The ‘All Eyes on You’ rapper was asked for his opinion on her new boyfriend and when he went to look at the rapper’s new man, he found out he had been blocked.
Asked about Kenneth during a Twitter Q&A session, he replied: “I don’t feel nothing … and I don’t know that man to judge him … I went to check him out on her page and found out I was blocked.”
