After watching the video for Rita Wilson’s “Forgiving Me, Forgiving You” for the first time, I pulled my chair closer to my computer and clicked play again. Once it ended, I rolled even closer and listened a second time. By listen number three, my trembling body was so close to the screen that my stomach was being…

Despite earlier reports, Nicki Minaj is not the person who posted bail for her brother, 37-year-old Jelani Maraj, after he was accused of raping a 12-year-old girl. It was his mother, Carol, who shelled out the $100,000.
I was nine when Now and Then was released, and because it was PG-13, my parents were disinclined to let me see it in theaters. But I battled fiercely for my cause.

Chet Hanks, the spoiled white boy who loves the word “nigga,” is still around, still ruining your timeline.

Welcome to Midweek Madness, where we hunch over a boiling cauldron, tirelessly stirring a thick, frothing stew of Kardashian sweat and Ansel Elgort's baby teeth on an endless loop until brunch, finally, is served. "I just want a bite!" we lie. This week: Kris Jenner is determined to make money off Bruce's transition;…

Cathy's Kids, the charity Lamar Odom founded in honor on his mother to "help underprivileged kids and raise money for cancer research", has raised over 2.2 million dollars. Excellent news!

I think it was Tolstoy who wrote, "Happy families are all alike, but Kardashians are all different kinds of bacterial strains of fame-grubber."
