Alicia Keys Gives Birth to a Boy!

Alicia Keys has the best possible reason to be singing a happy tune today:
The artist has welcomed her second child into the world!
Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys
Keys confirmed the exciting news herself today online, posting a picture of her little boy's footprints and name, Genesis Ali Dean. He born at 1:52 a.m. on Saturday and weighed 6 pounds, 5 ounces.
Speaking for herself and husband Swiss Beatz, the Grammy winner wrote on Instagram:
"The joy of joy is joy!! It's a boy!! we are so grateful!! #blessings!!."
Keys announced in July that she and the music producer were expecting again via Instagram, telling followers at that time:
"We've been blessed with another angel on the way!! You make me happier than I have ever known! Here's to many many more years of the best parts of life!"                                                                                                                                                                      
Keys and Beatz wed at a private home on the Mediterranean Sea in August 2010 and welcomed son Egypt two months later.
We send the newly expanded family our very best wishes.

Jinger Duggar Celebrates 21st Birthday, Receives Tributes From Parents & Siblings

19 Kids and Counting cast member Jinger Duggar celebrated her 21st birthday this past Sunday, and the tributes are pouring in from her many family members.
Instead, she was honored with many tributes from her expansive family.

Like Jana Duggar, Jinger Duggar is often overlooked these days.
Jessa and Jill Duggar have both gotten married, and the latter is pregnant, in the past year, while Jinger and Jana still live almost entirely under the radar.
All four are so close in age, too, making this truly stand out. Jana is older then the two married siblings, in fact, while Jinger is just a year behind Jessa.
In any case, the family couldn't wait to share the love Sunday.
Jessa Duggar shared a cute smiling photo of her sister via Instagram, and wrote, "Happy golden birthday to my sweet sister Jinger! I love you so much!"
On the Duggar family's official Facebook, they shared a photo of her and mother Michelle, holding a sign saying "Happy 21st Birthday Jinger. We love you!"
"Today is Jinger's 21st birthday," they also wrote. "We are so thankful for her love for Jesus and her sweet personality. She is precious to us in every way!"

Jinger makes bug-eyes at the camera. She may be the quirkiest Duggar.
Jim Bob Duggar then posted a baby photo of her, writing:
"Cute little Jinger! Can't believe she's all grown up now ... Today we're celebrating her 21st birthday! Such a beautiful young lady ... inside and out!"
Having lived 21 years, Jessa and Jill Duggar's little sis is now legally of age to drink alcohol, but don't expect them to partake in that anytime soon.
Or at all. Their religion forbids it, cradle to grave.
"We've never like intentionally been to a party where we know there's going to be a lot of drinking," Jill Duggar, 23, told Cosmopolitan earlier this year.
"I've been on the fire department for a few years now, and there's people, young people, 18-year-old girls who have died of an OD. You see the effects."

Whatever works for them. Wish Jinger a happy birthday in the comments below, then take a look at other surprising things not allowed by the Duggar family ...
Dates Without Chaperones
The Duggar parents often accompany their children on dates in order to maintain their "accountability" and "keep things from going in the wrong direction," per Jim Bob. The girls are fine with this, as being alone with men puts them in grave "moral danger." When the parents aren't available, their older siblings will often tag along, making every date a group date and a family affair.

Lauren Scruggs and Jason Kennedy: Married!

Lauren Scruggs married Jason Kennedy earlier this month, a happy ending that the 26-year-old former model and fashion blogger wasn't sure was in the cards.
Especially given the tragic events of 2011.

Three years ago, Scruggs made headlines when, in a freak accident, she walked into an airplane propeller on a trip to see Christmas lights in her home city of Dallas.
The incident left the gorgeous blonde without a hand and an eye, but Scruggs, a devout Christian, never wavered in her positive outlook in life, or in her faith.
As a result, she became an inspiration to others who face adversity, a truly remarkable example of turning a negative into a positive. Then she met Jason.
Lauren Scruggs and Jason Kennedy, a 33-year-old E! personality, got married at the Four Seasons Resort & Club Dallas at Las Colinas in her hometown.
Looking radiant in Romona Keveza, she walked down the aisle with her dad, Jeff, while "I was trying not to completely cry my eyes out," says Kennedy.

Read more about their magical day on People and tune into the E! special chronicling the magical affair, which premiered this week on the TV network.
Congratulations to the happy couple!

Brandi Glanville

Brandi Glanville Goes OFF on Kim Kardashian, Tori Spelling and Justin Bieber in Epic Video Rant!

Another day, another epic Brandi Glanville feud.
Over the weekend, Joanna Krupa slammed Brandi after the Beverly Hills Housewife made some unpleasant comments about the odor of Krupa's nether regions during an interview with Andy Cohen.
Joanna unloaded on Brand,i and perhaps she thought her tirade would teach Ms. Glanville a lesson about talking trash in public forums. Oh, how wrong she was.
In a video she recorded for Us Weekly recently, Brandi offers her opinion on everyone from her housewives co-stars to the biggest names in Hollywood. And you might expect, she doesn't hold anything back:
Remarkably, Brandi had nothing but kind words for Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes! Everyone else is not so lucky.
"Kim Kardashian, do something besides be pretty," she lectured Mrs. West.
"Tori Spelling - what goes around comes around," she said in reference to Tori being cheated on by Dean McDermott.
"Justin Bieber needs to be spanked, and not by a Brazilian supermodel," Brandi said about everyone's favorite swaggy-douche.
Harsh word. But of course, Brandi saved her most specific trash-talk for one of her RHOBH co-stars:

"Kyle Richards needs a haircut, needs some layers, and needs an attitude adjustment."
Ouch. But hey, at least she talk about the stench of anyone's genitals.
Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online at TV Fanatic for more of Brandi's trademark candor.

Brandi hates to be sober. She'll tell you all about it.

Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Actually Spending Time Together, Buying Ridiculous Christmas Presents For North!

To say that North West is a bit spoiled is like saying her daddy Kanye has a bit of an ego.
North has a personal stylist and tailor, she reportedly rocks $50,000 diamond earrings, and there have even been rumors about her folks buying her a private island to serve as her own personal play place.
So perhaps we shouldn't be surprised to learn that Kimye is going all out for Nori's second Christmas:
Kim, Kanye and North in Paris
The Daily Mail reports that the Wests have spent upwards of $74,000 on presents for North.
You might be wondering how it's even possible to drop that kind of cash on an 18-month-old, but you have to bear in mind who her parents are. 
Naturally, the most expensive items have more to with Kim and Kanye's ego than with North's enjoyment.
For example, Kanye reportedly picked up a $60,000 diamond-encrusted tiara, as well as a custom-made $12,000 toy replica of his matte black SUV.
Sure, the average toddler would probably prefer to play with a roll of bubble wrap, but since when is Christmas about the kids?
Morning, Kim and Nori!
It's Kim Kardashian and daughter Nori! The former posted this photo online with a simple caption: Good morning.
On the plus side, North is probably happy to see her parents under the same roof for once.
Kim and Kanye spent a month apart recently after reportedly going through a "rough patch" in their marriage. There were even rumors about the couple spending Christmas in separate countries.
Fortunately, Yeezus (the reason for the season) is making things up to his new wife the best ways he knows how: through obnoxious displays of obscene wealth!
"For Kim, he's got specially commissioned designer clothes, shoes, bags, and jewels too."
But in case you started thinking that 'Ye occasionally thinks about someone other than himself, the source then added, "He asked his stylist to do it."

Damn, Yeezy. Usually when you try to buy someone's forgiveness, you at least give them crap that you picked out yourself.

Kim Kardashian sort of gets it on with Kanye West in this music video still. She's topless!

Khloe Kardashian: I Would Never Kick Rob Out of the House!

Rob Kardashian may be holed up in Khloe Kardashian's home and uninterested in the spotlight these days, but his sister is not preparing to evict him.
Despite what rumors in the past week have indicated, she took Twitter to bash rumors that Khloe is kicking Rob Kardashian out or had already done so.
On the contrary, in fact. Khloe couldn't be happier with her sibling roommate.
Rob Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian
"One of the best things about my house is that my brother lives with me. I would never kick him out," she tweeted. "I've begged for him to live with me."
"So until HE wants to leave... this is his home. #ByeHaters #StopWithTheBS."
It has been a really, really tough year or two for Robbie K., BS or no BS.
He's stopped filming Keeping Up With the Kardashians, bailed on a family trip to Thailand in the spring, and left sister Kim's European wedding weekend early.
Wracked by insecurity, he's been seen very little in the six months since.
Rob has put on serious amounts of weight and friends and family alike worry that he's become extremely reclusive and depressed, though it's mostly speculation.
Khloe sounds like all is well, not that she'd tell Twitter if they weren't.
In the past, Rob has lived with Khloe and then-husband Lamar Odom, while she crashed with him during her separation from Odom, so the two are very close.

As for those reports that Khloe is calling herself Mrs. Odom again, that remains to be seen as well ... but we know she is not legally divorced from Lamar.
Stay tuned on that front too ...

Rob Kardashian is not thin. He and his large body mass are behind the wheel in this photograph.

Justin Bieber: Sending Sad Christmas Message To Selena Gomez?

Justin Bieber Christmas

Is Justin Bieber missing Selena Gomez this Christmas season? He posted a sad new photo of himself along with a message

Justin Bieber, 20, looked sad and lonely in a new selfie posted on his Shots account. Do you think it’s because he misses spending the holidays with his ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez?

Justin Bieber’s Sad Christmas Message: For Selena Gomez?

Aww, poor Justin.
On Saturday night, Dec. 20, the lonely singer shared a dimly lit selfie of himself on Shots that showed him looking sadder than ever.

“Merry Christmas,” was all the caption read, but Justin’s photo wasn’t very merry at all. In fact, it really looked like he was missing someone — Selena.

Justin’s New Girl: Will He Spend Christmas With Hailey Baldwin?

The same day Justin posted his lonely selfie, his rumored new girlfriend posted a picture of herself wearing his sweatpants.
When Justin commented Hailey’s picture asking for his pants back, Hailey responded by saying they looked better on her. And, she’s not wrong!
So, will Justin be spending his holiday with Hailey since there’s no chance he’ll be with Selena? If so, maybe she should be concerned about this sad message to his ex on Shots.
Tell us, HollywoodLifers — Do YOU think Justin’s message was for Selena? Do you think he’ll spend the holidays with Hailey instead? Comment below.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi Celebrate 10 Year-Anniversary, Pose for Makeup-Free Selfie

And they said it wouldn't last!
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi took to Instagram this week to celebrate 10 amazing years as a couple, posing for a make-up selfie and looking more in love now than ever before.
They didn't include a caption with the following beach-based snapshot because, really, no words are needed to express the joy depicted here:
Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi Anniversary Pic
DeGeneres and de Rossi dated for four years before saying they do on Augst  15, 2008.
They continue to be one of Hollywood's most fun and enjoyable couples, as evidenced by their mocking of the Kim Kardashian nude spread in Paper Magazine with their latest Christmas card.
Seriously, how amazing is THIS?
Sadly, of course, the tabloids have been targeting Ellen and Portia for some time now, publishing erroneous divorce stories and even alleging over the summer that DeGeneres cheated on her wife.
This prompted a response from Ellen.
"The truth is, and this is corny, I fall more in love with Portia all the time," she told People earlier this year, adding:
"I really do. She surprises me all the time...It's what anyone experiences when you find that person that gets you, wants to take care of you, wants the best for you. We're really lucky because we know how rare it is."

Vanderpump Rules

Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 5 Recap: Does Katie Maloney Motorboat Crotch?

Last night on Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 5, Kristen and Tom returned to work at SUR after being suspended, while Stassi was given a big opportunity by Lisa.
Meanwhile, Tom Schwartz made a HUGE commitment (well, for him anyway) in hopes of appeasing Katie's concerns, while she also faced some hard core accusations.
What did those consist of, and how did everything go down (sort of literally)?
Picking up where Episode 4 left off, Vanderpump Rules Season 3 Episode 5 saw Schwartz try to get out of the doghouse after quitting his job at PUMP spectacularly.
To show he can commit to stuff, while also delaying marriage talks with Katie Maloney, he adopted a rescue dog! Which was silly looking but so, SO cute.
So cute, in fact, that she envisioned the puppy as the ring bearer in the wedding Tom desperately wants to avoid thinking about! So that totes backfired!
Meanwhile, if you watch Vanderpump Rules online, you know Lisa Vanderpump and Stassi Schroeder are often at odds. Well, this week things are good.
In fact, Lisa hired Stassi to be her stylist for a photo shoot, a gesture she felt was generous as the youngster could put the experience on her resume.
Yet Stassi didn't see it that way, feeling Lisa treated her like an assistant and not a professional. Lisa, for her part, felt her former staffer was ungrateful.
All of that took a back seat to the drama with Katie and Jax Taylor, however.
According to Jax and Scheana Marie, not only is it possible to motorboat someone’s crotch, but Katie did just that, between some unidentified actor’s legs!
Jax began relaying that Katie had cheated on Schwartz in this manner, a dubious claim because it's Jax, a man who lies like he gets pointless nose jobs.
Still, Scheana claimed she saw the entire incident, so the rumors spread.
Sadly, the actor who supposedly had his crotch motorboated by Katie Maloney was never revealed, but Jax and the accused motorboater had words.
When Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz and Jax joined Katie for brunch, Sandoval and Jax just grilled her on this alleged incident, while Schwartz did nothing.
Seriously. He just freaking sat there while Jax tore his girlfriend a new one.
Stassi Schroeder
Sassy Stassi is the resident wit on Vanderpump Rules. She's basically a young Lisa V. in the making.
Beyond whimpering “Bubby” a few times (whatever the heck that means), he did not stick up for his girl one iota ... or ask if the rumor was true for that matter.
Katie eventually stormed off after getting railroaded by that douche Jax.
When Tom Schwartz ran after her, did he at least defend her stance or comfort her? No, he told her that she was basically the instigator in all of this.
Now there's a standup guy. Totes future fiance and husband material.

Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons

Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons Season 1 Episode 5 Recap: The Lord and The Leak

Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons Season 1 Episode 5 saw Kourt and Scott wrestle with their ongoing issues after the latter (not) shockingly bailed on rehab.
Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian began to question the loyalty of longtime best friend Jonathan Cheban after some inside family information was leaked to the press.
Information they apparently didn't want leaked, for once.
Picking up where the previous installment left off, Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons Season 1 Episode 5 began with Lord Disick bolting rehab.
To his credit, he seems sincere about making a change despite his early exit from treatment, which he says was only one day early for the record.
While we don't know what rehab program lasts only six days, Disick acknowledged where he went wrong with his family, and that “I don’t want to lose it.”
If you watch Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons online, you may never see her communicate this well with Scott again. We just hope it continues.
As for his commitment to sobriety, we've heard conflicting stories as to how long it lasts, but he didn't drink even while hosting an event in Atlantic City.
Disick also went to an AA meeting, and recalls Kourtney what a sobering (pun intended) experience that was, claiming it’s “definitely what I need.”
Kris Jenner warns Kourtney that she must think long and hard about what’s best for her and the kids, and she and Scott admit there's work to be done.
When He Ragged on Kim's Marriage
Lord Disick often says what we're thinking. Especially when he's ragging on his baby mama's clueless sisters.
Meanwhile, Kim's BFF Jonathan Cheban is in town and Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian both express to Kim that he may not be as trusted as he seems.
Following an event to promote the Kardashian Kids klothing line, which apparently exists, he and Kim Kardashian drive to the Jersey Shore, because obviously.
Kim confides to him that Kourtney’s been talking to a therapist, and when that fact mysteriously appears in a tabloid, she accuses Cheban of leaking it.
Incredulous, the former publicist (who had just brought Kim breakfast) lashes out when she asks to see his phone to determine if he is in fact the leak:
"You don’t think I have anything better to do in my life?" Cheban asks, clearly upset. "You’re a b!tch. Take the donuts, take my phone and go f--k yourself."
Kim later learns that paparazzi who recognized Kourtney’s therapist broke that "story" and apologizes to Jonathan, who gets over it pretty quickly.
Hey, people make mistakes, and when you're one of the random people made famous by the Kardashians, you gotta roll with the punches sometimes ...
Jonathan Cheban
Jonathan Cheban has been a publicist for years. But only by publicizing his friendship with the Kardashians has he become known.
As for the rest of the Kards crew this week?
Khloe was a supporting player, and there were no French Montana sightings, although it looks like from the previews that he'll be back in the picture soon.
There was a brief Kendall Jenner cameo, along with some of Scott's friends, including his namesake who Kim mistakenly blabbed about his hospitalization to.
Mason and P are also super, duper cute!
