Blind Gossip Exclusive Blind Item - They Just Broke Up In A Restaurant

This celebrity couple was in a restaurant the other night. They were having a fight and breaking up. To be more precise, he was breaking up with her!

They weren’t exactly alone, either.

"They filmed their break up at [a restaurant]. It was a whole scene of him telling her over dinner they were over. It may not be news to you that they are done, but it looks like they are going to reveal it on their show."

Since SHE has been the one making all the noise over the past few months about how unhappy she is, it is interesting that HE is the one who got to lead the break up scene!

The Gossip Life Blind Item - Ensemble Falls Out

The ensemble of this B list show has fallen out. Not a single member of the main cast talks to each other off of set and although some are polite to each other when they're working, others simply do not engage. 

The show's lead gets the blame for the unhappy working environment, according to my source. He compares her behaviour to that of a medieval queen; demanding, rude, entitled and very quick to scream.

So, tell me, Gossipers:

Katy Perry Grows Up

Katy Perry is on the cover of
On her micro teacup poodle Nugget:
“I collect tiny things. She brings so much love. When I wake up, she’s the only serotonin I need.”

On fashion:
“Fashion is just a language. It’s storytelling. I am so encouraged by the big morph in fashion that’s happening at the moment. Everybody is shape-shifting, changing, adapting...I like more androgynous, architectural lately. I am happy to be another interpretation of myself.”

On her conservative upbringing:
“The schools were really makeshift. Education was not the first priority. My education started in my 20s, and there is so much to learn still. [I was not] allowed to interact with gay people, [and] there is some generational racism. But I came out of the womb asking questions, curious from day one, and I am really grateful for that: My curiosity has led me here. Anything I don’t understand, I will just ask questions about...[My world tours are a process of] reeducation—really I am on this genius road trip throughout the world because when we tour, we tour very well and we see the sights...I miss references all the time. Amy Grant was our Madonna. We knew about Madonna and Marilyn Manson in my family because we picketed their concerts.”

On discovering Queen when she was 15:
“I had never heard such an imaginative explanation of how to live. That was my first perspective on that world, and I just loved it. I felt so free and accepted.”

On growing up:
"[32 is] a nice place to be. I love it! I wouldn’t give anything to go back to my 20s; I’m so much more grounded. And I’ve learned a lot of lessons—patience, the art of saying no, that everything doesn’t have to end in marriage. That your education can start now. I blasted off on a rocket, holding on for dear life. But I had so much ambition and determination, and that’s what kept me going. The rocket was riding me for a bit, but now I am riding the rocket.”

On therapy:
“It’s changed my life. When I am in the room I am just Katheryn Hudson, which is amazing because people in my position hear yes too much, and it kills them or makes them completely disconnected from reality—and I don’t want that.”

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Clingy and Insecure

It took all of five minutes for this male musician to move on from dating a model to dating a singer.

Is it possible that he’s already planning his next move?

"He says she’s clingy and insecure, and it’s boring for him to constantly have to reassure her that she’s pretty or talented or OK or whatever. He knows that she’s really into him, so it’s easy to just keep using her. He’s been getting good publicity and more followers out of it, so it’s all good for now. Not that he’s in it for the long run. He’s been asking, “Hey, do you know if [model] is single?” and “Do you know if [singer] is dating anybody?” He’s still looking around."

Bella Thorne Channels Marilyn Monroe

Bella Thorne recently posed for Harper's Bazaar in a photo shoot that had her channeling Marilyn Monroe. Here's what she had to say in the accompanying interview:

On paparazzi:
"It's hard every time I step out of the house. I have to worry about someone photographing my acne and how's it going to look and if someone's going to write about me having bad skin because 'she was partying' or 'out too late the night before.' That part [of fame] sucks for sure."

On rebelling after moving out of her mother's house last year:
"Getting my septum pierced because I felt like it, getting a tattoo if I wanted one, and just doing me. People will ask me, 'Who are you now?' But this is who I've really been—you just didn't see me before. I was just a puppet. I wasn't allowed to make my own decisions or think for myself in any way."

On relationships in the public eye:
"Even if I'm not dating somebody, even if we're just seen hanging out, he must be my boyfriend and we're moving in and holy shit we're getting married. I want to go ice skating and I want to ride dirt bikes or do something dope as a date, but I can't. Because if I step outside, he's my boyfriend all of a sudden. So it's like, 'Oh fuck, well, we can only go to your house or mine, we can't leave the house."

On her current relationship status:
"I'm single as fuck. I could not be more single. This is the longest I've been super single. There are so many unwritten rules about dating which I don't like. I'd rather be super faithful and give my all to one person. I don't like having my phone blown up by a bunch of different guys where I don't really know where I stand with any of them. It sucks. [Holidays are] very lonely. I don't have much family, so if I'm in a relationship with somebody they kind of become my family in that way."

On bisexuality:
"I've done other stuff with girls, but I really want to actually date a girl...I can't tell if a girl is hitting on me or she just wants to be friends. And I don't want to flirt with a girl if she thinks I'm just being her friend. What if I kiss a girl and she's like 'Oh, I'm just your friend dude, I can't believe you just crossed that boundary.' I'm confused on what they want from me." 

On admitting she would like to date Kristen Stewart:
"She's so hot. She seems like the raddest chick, I'd be so down."

On social media:
"I want to use social media to spread goodness. Teens are all going through different shit and nobody talks to each other about it. So if somebody could just be that first person to lend their hand, then other people will follow. People go through some fucked up shit. But it doesn't mean that you have to turn completely to the dark side and be unhappy and depressed. I have had really dark thoughts. When I was younger I thought about killing myself; it's very normal in a way that, if you're upset with who you are and how your life is going, you could think these things. I want people to know that it's okay to talk about it. And the more I do it, the more my fans will do it with each other, and with other people in their life."

Vanessa Hudgens Works Out

Vanessa Hudgens is on the cover of Women's Health Magazine. Here's what she had to say in the accompanying interview:

On Yoga:
"I don't consider it fitness. It's more like therapy for me...I looked in the mirror and was like, 'Who am I?' It was definitely a journey back to myself, and yoga helped."

On Soulcycle:
"Put me on a bike in a room with loud music, and I'm happy. It's like dancing without the stress of worrying if you look good...I tend to ride for the teachers. I'm such a performer. I love being in front, because I'll push myself harder and I'll give the class energy too. So it's a win-win."

On avocados:
"I eat a whole avocado a day. I need high fats. If I'm not getting enough, my body holds on to calories. We've been trained to think that fats are bad, but they're so good—a source of energy and sustenance that keeps you going through the day. That's the only way I can not eat carbs."

Aly Raisman Talks Body Positivity

Gold-medal winning Olympic Gymnast Aly Raisman recently sat down for an interview with Time, where she talked about posing for the 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Here's what she had to say:


“I knew people were going to say that I wasn’t a good role model and all of this stuff. I did the issue because I love my body. I can express myself in any way that I want. But that doesn’t give anyone the right to judge me. I think being a role model is about being a kind person. It really made me realize, women do not have to be modest in order to be respected.”

How did you develop your body confidence?
"It’s something that develops over time. I think everyone goes through phases in life where they feel insecure. I have plenty of times. But as I’ve gotten older I’ve learned to appreciate my body. Young girls should be taught that there’s no ideal body type. We’re all different and unique in our way — if we all looked the exact same, we’d be very boring."

And just in time for Easter! TMZ reports that Jennifer Garner has officially filed for divorce from Ben Affleck. She filed, and he responded to the filing - without lawyers for either party. Their documents mirror each other, so the effort was coordinated, and apparently, amicable. They both ask for joint legal and physical custody of their three children, and they are letting a judge decide any spousal support. The couple did not sign a prenup, and the two are still negotiating their financial settlement.

Blind Gossip Exclusive Blind Item - Shocking Story About A Young Actress

In addition to being young and beautiful, this actress is very talented, having already received a major nomination/award for her work.

We have a shocking story for you about an event that occurred in her life a few years ago.

She had just landed a job she really wanted and had signed a contract.

Before the job began, her mom found her passed out on the bathroom floor. She had OD’d on heroin!

She was rushed to the hospital. While hospitalized, her new employer informed her that they would void her contract unless she agreed to go to rehab immediately.

She went. However, rehab did not go smoothly.

"Her first couple of weeks at rehab were rough, because she snuck some heroin into the facility and was still using.  It took two weeks before the staff found it because she had hidden it in her makeup. After that, she got clean."

She was supposedly well-liked by the other patients and staff. They describe her as “very kind and caring.” They also hope that she will talk about her experience one day to show others with the same problem that there is hope for recovery.

Kardashian Korner

Khloe Kardashian recently sat down for an interview with ES Magazine; here's what she had to say:

On her weight:
"I never considered myself fat, but when I used to shop with my sisters I was always really shamed and shunned by [sales assistants] who would say: 'We don’t carry that size here'… I was always so embarrassed, so for a long time I didn’t wear denim at all. I kept getting angrier. [Stylists] said they didn’t dress people my size. It’s shocking...once I lost weight, the same people would reach out, and be like, 'We would love to style you.' I was like, 'Screw you.'"

On boyfriend Tristan Thompson:
"[When we met,] we both felt this strong energy. I was like, oh this is such a nice, normal man — the normalcy is what I was craving. I’m a Christian; he’s a believer in God and that’s important to me. Tristan’s morals and ethics are everything I’ve wanted and need in my life."

On how Thompson is adjusting to her level of fame:
"[When we started dating,] we took a private plane to avoid everything and enjoy our privacy, and we thought we were in the clear. But the paparazzi were on boats, they got pictures and I didn’t find out until later. I was like, 'I’m so sorry,' and Tristan was like, 'It’s okay.' You could tell that was a big pill to swallow. But he accepts who I am. He likes to protect me, which I haven’t had before — someone looking out for me almost before himself."

On Thompson appearing on Keeping Up With The Kardashians:
"If I’m at a dinner with my family and he’s there. But now I know I don’t need to put everything on social media and I like to keep some things close to my heart...[On Keeping Up With the Kardashians,] we show you who we are. We’re not proud of every moment, we’re just really honest about who we are. We make no excuses."

On the values that father Rob Kardashian instilled in his children:
"We always went to feed the homeless on skid row. We lived in a beautiful mansion in Beverly Hills, I had miniature ponies at every party, but my dad never wanted us to think that was reality. He was really strict. We had a lot of chores. [At 16,] my friends had brand new BMWs — I had a 15-year-old car.

A lot of people don’t know that we didn’t have an inheritance. I think there is a silver lining to my dad’s passing: he has been my guardian angel and in a way has guided us through life. There’s a blessing even in the most tragic of things...I worked for my dad as a secretary in the summer and after school. I was never allowed to sleep in. They wanted to teach us the value of being productive with your day."

The Kooks - Be Who You Are

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Their Cool Pretend Relationship

This attractive acting couple is pretending that they are still together… even though they broke up last year!

They starred on a hugely successful ensemble cable show together.  They were a couple on the show… and then in real life. Yes, it was a real relationship! However, it’s over now.

So why are they still pretending to be a couple?

"It’s the most exposure either of them has ever had in their entire careers. Each of them has booked half a dozen other gigs because they were part of a hit show and part of the celebrity couple from that hit show. They are not going to waste all that good publicity when it helps them book work! They are both in agreement that they can pretend for now and will break up after the show goes off the air."

If you are wondering if pretending to get along is a problem for either of them, it’s not. While many exes give each other the cold shoulder, these two are both over their breakup, have moved on, and are cool about spending time together for promotional purposes.

Jenna Dewan-Tatum Talks About Sex, Baby!

Jenna Dewan-Tatum is on the cover of Redbook Magazine; here's what she had to say in the accompanying interview:

On finding time to connect with her husband, Channing Tatum: 
"We are not sex schedulers – not yet! Give us a couple more years. Maybe with child number two. There's a beauty in being two busy people because we get a lot of time to miss each other. To continue to miss someone after so many years is kind of a blessing in disguise."

On her biggest relationship challenge: 
"Communication. You change when you're together from 25 to 35. I think maybe in my early 20s, I might have tiptoed around issues or didn't want to make too many waves. Now it's like, "This is how I'm feeling." You have to be okay with the other person becoming defensive, to let them be emotional and accept that it won't be okay for a while."

On keeping her relationship exciting: 
"I think all women should keep it exciting for themselves. People always ask, "Do you do anything to keep it fresh for your man?" I hate that question. I'm like, "No. Why is it for your man? I do things to keep it fresh for myself. The lingerie I buy is not for him necessarily. It's for us and for myself. If you feel sexy, then it's good for you."


On being a feminist — and having a feminist husband:
"We should want equality for men and women. Men should want that too. Chan is for women's rights and so am I. Women should have the right to be the best they can be and make their own choices for themselves. Our daughter is young, but I think as she gets older, she's going to be all about the standard for women we keep at home — she's going to be strong."

Their only communication with the outside world during that time will be via text message with a museum in Helsinki, where they can correspond with museum visitors, but not with each other. Somewhere, Mia Goth is planning Shia's next monthlong art project that prevents him from communicating with her for a large chunk of time.

Speidi is Spawning

Us Weekly reports that Spencer Pratt, 33, and Heidi Montag, 30, are expecting their first child together. So what did they do? Immediately called up Us Weekly to do an interview. Here are some highlights:

Us: Why wait until now for a baby?
HM: I wanted a baby three years ago. Spencer was a little hesitant. Then one thing after another came up. We had work obligations, like Celebrity Big Brother in the U.K., which I did not want to be pregnant for. I’m actually really thankful we waited. I thought I was ready in my twenties, but with everything we had going on, it just wouldn’t have been a good situation for us.
SP: Agreed. I think I’m ready. I know Heidi is ready!

HM: It might never be the perfect time, so we said, Let’s move forward. We had all these conversations. We’re older, we have more life experience. Nothing is holding us back.

Us: Spencer, are you pampering Heidi?
SP: I’m doing the dishes! 
HM: He is!
SP: I need to step up the pampering game, though. Baby, I owe you a massage and the best frozen dinner I can make! I’m a fish-stick master chef.

Us: Heidi, now that you’re set for fish sticks, are there any other foods you’re craving?
HM: At first I wasn’t craving anything because I was so sick, but now it’s salt-and-vinegar potato chips. I could eat a bag of them a day.
SP: No, no, no. I was eating the entire bag! She’ll have a handful.
HM: A few handfuls.
SP: And then I eat the rest. I’ve never eaten more junk food in my life!

HM: And Sour Patch Kids! I try to eat healthy, organic versions of them. But it’s not the same!

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Without Kramer And George

When you film a TV series together over several seasons, there are certain expectations about how it will end.

The finale usually focuses on the main characters of the ensemble. When that doesn’t happen, it’s bound to cause some angst.

"She was shocked to find out that she would not be included in the finale. She was one of the four principals, so she was baffled about why she was written out. She felt like in the last season other/ lesser characters were given more screen time to the detriment of her character but she still thinks it’s wrong to leave her out. She says “It’s like doing the finale of Seinfeld without Kramer and George. Unthinkable.”"

Our girl is going to move one. She does have several projects coming up, so it’s doubtful that being left out of this one show will hurt her career much.

Orlando Bloom Talks Dick Pics

Orlando Bloom recently sat down for an interview with Elle UK, where he talked about a variety of topics, including those infamous naked pictures. Here's what he had to say:

"Are we going to talk about my penis?"

On the hysteria surrounding the naked photos:
"Yes, it was extremely surprising. I wouldn't have put myself in that position if I'd thought it would happen. I've been photographed a million times in a million ways. I have a good radar. We'd been completely alone for five days. Nothing around us. There was no way anyone could get anything. So I had a moment of feeling free."

On ex-wife Miranda Kerr:
"With Miranda, there was a sense that I don't want my son to go back through the internet where people have made up lies [about us]. Miranda and I have a remarkable relationship. We co-parent really well."

On Katy Perry:
"We're friends. It's good. We're all grown-up. She happens to be someone who is very visible, but I don't think anybody cares what I'm up to. Nor should they. It's between us. It's better to set an example for kids and show that [break-ups] don't have to be about hate."

On aging:
"I'm just waiting for the age lines to get deeper in my face. I'm excited about the prospect of the next 10 years. Actors do their most interesting stuff between 40 and 50. I mean, fuck – I hope that's the case for me!"

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Photo Op To Cool Down the Rumors

Arguments back and forth between his team and her team.

"[One side] is proposing that they do some sort of outing together to show unity.

The argument for doing this is that things are too hot and they need to cool down rumors so that the two of them won’t get hounded every day by the media. The problem is that they can’t even be in the same room together! So to get them to go out in public and look united and happy and casual is a challenge.

The argument against is that it won’t solve anything and that it will just delay the inevitable."

It’s an interesting proposal: Go out and get photographed together… so people will STOP talking about you!

How Michelle Rodriguez Started to Feel Feminine

Michelle Rodriguez sat down for an interview with Page Six, where she talked about how her new movie The Assignment, in which she plays a male assassin who wakes up only to find that he has undergone sex reassignment surgery, has made her feel more feminine. Here's what she had to say:

“All my life I felt alienated by women. They were into the lipstick, nails and dressing up  and I always felt like a tomboy, like I didn’t fit in. I felt like I had masculine qualities versus feminine qualities just because I am an alpha. I do what I want and never let anybody tell me otherwise. I am kind of hardcore about that. But then when I go and actually play a man, I realized I am such a girl, there is nothing manly about me. The toughest part was wearing a beard because it was really itchy. The minute my hand came up to my face, you could see that I was a woman. I have female fingers. I was so confused growing up, so it took playing a man to make me a woman.

There was a scene when I had to put on a cock with the balls, I did ask for a big one. They glued it on and the hair was so itchy and rubbing up against my leg, it was so nasty. But playing a man, it is real, it did not mess with my psychologically, I am not a Method actress. When you say ‘cut,’ I am back to Michelle. But it did mess with me when I was on set. As soon as the scene was over I was like, ‘Take it off.' But it is stamped solid and official I am a girl.”
