• Bill Cosby Sued for Alleged Sexual Assault on 15-Year-Old Girl

    Just when you thought it could not get any worse for fallen comedian Bill Cosby, it has. He is now being sued by a woman named Judy Huth, who is 55. She is alleging that back in 1974 Cosby molested her when she was only 15. While most cases that involve Cosby are impossible to legally prosecute in any way because of the statute of limitations having expired, this one is apparently different.According to TMZ, Huth filed her suit in Los Angeles County Court, saying that she and a friend met Cosby in a park where he was filming a movie. He befriended the girls and invited them to a party at the Playboy Mansion, instructing them to lie about their ages if anyone asked. Huth alleges that Cosby played pool and made her drink a beer every time he won a game. He then guided her toward a bathroom that was off a bedroom, and when she came out Cosby asked her to sit beside him. Huth alleges that after doing so, the actor molested her.

  • Michael Brown's Ex-Con Stepfather Louis Head is Being Investigated for Inciting Ferguson Riots

    By now I think nearly everyone has seen the video of Michael Brown's stepfather shouting into the crowd, "Burn this b**** down!" shortly after the grand jury announced its' decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson for the Aug. 9 shooting that killed the teen. While many have said that Louis Head, Brown's step-dad, wasn't actually inciting violence, he was just reacting to the pain in that moment, the Ferguson police department doesn't necessarily see it that way.

  • CBS Ready to Go Dark on Dish Network This Thursday if Carriage Deal Isn't Reached

    As many as 14 million Dish Network subscribers could find themselves without access to CBS's programming if a new contract isn't in place by 7pm on Thursday. The network claims to have worked hard with Dish Network to reach a new agreement for carriage and at this point, they'd rather go dark than stay stuck in the limbo that they are currently sitting in. CBS officially issued a statement today explaining their perspective.

  • Did the Kardashian Family Fake A Happy Thanksgiving Together?

    It has been a year full of serious changes and transitions for the Kardashian family and momager Kris Jenner really has done her best to try and keep the family empire up and running in spite of all the chaos. Once she officially split from Bruce Jenner, it seemed like any sense of normalcy that might have existed went right out the window. Kendall and Kylie Jenner have openly struggled to be okay, Khloe and Rob Kardashian both seem fairly lost, while Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant with her third child in spite of her unstable relationship with Scott Disick. Kim Kardashian's business is booming, but sources say that it's at the cost of her marriage. It's a good thing that the Kardashian family all reconvened at Khloe's for Thanksgiving -- or did they?

  • Reese Witherspoon Has Never Identified with Being Anyone's 'Sweetheart'

    January is definitely Reese Witherspoon's month for covering magazines. Chalk it up to the fact that her career is booming with new films such as "Wild" dropping and Oscar buzz surrounding "Gone Girl," a film she produced. It is no wonder that Witherspoon is gracing the U.K. edition of "Harper's Bazaar" in a 1950s-inspired photo shoot. She also gets real in the January 2015 issue of "Glamour," where she takes on that whole notion of being "America's sweetheart.""I certainly didn't self-identify as anyone's sweetheart. I'm friendly, but I don't think I'm sweet. I'm honest. I don't think I realized [in my 20s] that no one else makes you whole. You have to take responsibility for your own happiness. That took me until I was about 31 to know. It wasn't easy to realize, 'Oh, wait, I am purely responsible [for my life]' — no relationship, no children, no nothing is going to make you a happy person. Every day you have to choose to find and cultivate your own happiness," says Witherspoon.

  • St. Louis Rams Insist That They Did Not Apologize to Police for 'Hands Up, Don't Shoot' Gesture

    It looks like finding middle ground and a truce between the St. Louis Rams and the St. Louis County police department is not going to be easy. The issue began when five St. Louis Rams players walked onto the field before Sunday, Nov. 30's game with their arms making a "hands up, don't shoot" gesture. The police department took extreme offense at the gesture, which was in reference to Darren Wilson's not being indicted in the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. Now team officials and the police department are at odds over whether or not an apology was issued.On Monday, Dec. 1, the Rams's chief operations officer Kevin Demoff reached out to law enforcement to try and make peace. Demoff reportedly told police chief Jon Belmar that he "regretted any offense the officers may have taken and regretted that any members of the [Rams's] organization would act in a way that minimized the outstanding work that police officers and departments carry out each and every day."Even though Demoff said he never apologized, the chief believed it to be enough of an apology to send an email about the phone call to his staff.

  • Jill Scott Defends Bill Cosby on Twitter; Comedian Resigns from Temple University's Board of Trustees

  • It Looks Like 'RHONJ' Will Be Shelved Until Teresa Giudice Is Released from Prison in April 2016!

    Just about every day now we are hearing a different story about what the future may hold for Teresa Giudice in terms of work. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star is scheduled to begin serving a 15-month sentence Jan. 5 after pleading guilty to financial fraud. The most recent season of her reality show wrapped up in October, and now Bravo executives need to figure out what they are going to do. At first it was rumored that "RHONJ" would continue on and bring back some old fan favorites to the canvas, but now it seems that Bravo is more inclined to put the series on hiatus.According to a report by Radar Online, sources close to the show are saying that network execs are fearing that without Giudice, the ratings will be dismal. Even with her there this past season, the numbers took a serious dip. Apparently, some insiders seem to think that shelving the show for a while is the best thing to do. Storylines seem to be a real problem because most of the latest additions to the cast have bored viewers into changing the channel.If "RHONJ" takes a break now and returns in 2016 with Giudice in the cast, fresh out of prison, it would likely do well. Fans of the show would want to see if jail time has changed her, and we already know that Giudice will be looking for a way to profit from her unfortunate experience. It might actually be the only way to get more mileage out of the show.

  • Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi Celebrate Tenth Anniversary with Makeup-Free Selfies

    In spite of being dogged by rumors of there being trouble in paradise, Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres just celebrated their 10th anniversary yesterday, Dec. 1. That is a pretty big accomplishment for any couple, let alone one that has been rumored to have muddled through addiction, infidelity and trust issues in just the last six months alone! Of course, there have been moments here and there when the couple has swung back, insisting that all is well between them, but the media has a way of clouding things.What we are sure of is the fact that de Rossi posted photos with her wife on her Twitter account this past weekend, and the two could not have looked happier. Sure, they know how to play for the cameras, but it looks like there is a real connection between them again, and the makeup-free selfie might just be one of the best candid shots of them ever.

  • LAPD Turns Investigation of Allegations that Casey Kasem Was Abused By Wife Jean Over to D.A.'s Office

    Can you believe that nearly six months after radio icon Casey Kasem's death he still has yet to be buried? Jean Kasem has kept her late husband's body in Oslo, Norway, where she claims he should be buried because of his family's roots. Casey's children launched an elder abuse investigation against Jean and the LAPD has finally confirmed that it has turned its findings over to the D.A.'s office. According to TMZ, it has already said that it is unlikely that any charges will be filed due to lack of evidence against Jean.That lack of evidence is the real issue here, and Casey's children believe she has fought an autopsy to protect herself. In fact, not only is Casey still unburied, but he has yet to be embalmed, which means any evidence of mistreatment is literally disintegrating away. Casey's daughter Kerri Kasem has especially pushed for the investigation because she believes Jean's neglect led to infected bed sores that may have played a part in her father's death.
