2016-10-03T22:17:00.001-04:00

James Hinchcliffe and his partner Sharna Burgess performed a “showstopper” on Monday’s “Dancing With The Stars.” They danced a paso doble on the show’s “Cirque du Soleil” night. Watch the video below.

Hinchcliffe, who has consistently been among the top competitors this season, has actually danced the paso doble once before. On week two of “Dancing With The Stars,” he and Burke performed the dance to the theme of “The Walking Dead.” Of their routine then, Len Goodman said, “You are a very accomplished dancer.” And Carrie Ann Inaba exclaimed their paso doble was “truly impressive,” and that the pair’s “synchronicity was on point.”

Of course, as noted above, the race car driver has impressed the judges and audience alike since the beginning of the season. On the premiere night, he tied Olymic gold medalist Laurie Hernandez for the highest score. And last week, Hinchcliffe and Burgess beat Ryan Lochte and Cheryl Burke when both pairs danced cha cha routines.

For his paso doble this week on “Cirque du Soleil” night, which featured performers from the show “Paramour,” Bruno Tonioli said Hinchcliffe “stylistically nailed it.” He also called his and Burgess’ routine “fantastic” and a “Broadway showstopper.” Ina similarly felt it was “excellent.” And Julianne Hough remarked, “You have so much charisma.. You are the real deal.”

As a result, Hinchcliffe and Burgess received a total of 28 out of 30 points. Check out the video below of James Hinchcliffe and Sharna Burgess dancing against the backdrop of the Cirque du Soleil show “Paramour” on “Dancing With The Stars.” Video will be up shortly.

2016-10-03T21:59:00.002-04:00

Laurie Hernandez and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy got the season’s first perfect score on Monday’s “Dancing With The Stars.” They danced a flawless jazz routine on the show’s “Cirque du Soleil” night to Michael Jackson’s “The Way You Make Me Feel.” Watch the video below.

Hernandez has been on the top of the leader board since the premiere of this season’s “Dancing With The Stars.” She tied for first place that week with James Hinchcliffe. Then, she won Week Two with her jive routine to the theme of “DuckTales.” And last week, Hernandez and Chmerkovskiy beat Marilu Henner and Derek Hough during a tango “face off.” For that dance, the Olympic gold medalist scored 31 out of 40 points, which was one point shy of being the highest score for the third week in a row. Hernandez’s performances have been called “unbelievable,” “amazing,” and among the “best ever” on “Dancing With The Stars.”

For her jazz routine this week on “Cirque du Soleil” night, which included acrobats from the show “Michael Jackson ONE,” Carrie Ann Inaba felt is “hard to emulate” Michael Jackson but Hernandez “killed it” and exectued “every move perfectly defined.” Julianne Hough said Jackson was the “King of Pop but you are Queen of the Ballroom.” And Bruno Tonioli simply exclaimed, “Stunning!”

As a result, Hernandez and Chmerkovskiy received a total of TK out of 30 points. Check out the video below of Laurie Hernandez and Val Chmerkovskiy dancing against the backdrop of the Cirque du Soleil show “Michael Jackson ONE” on “Dancing With The Stars.” Video will be up shortly.

2016-10-03T21:51:00.003-04:00

Amber Rose and her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy impressed the judges on Monday’s “Dancing With The Stars.” They danced an Argentine tango on the show’s “Cirque du Soleil” night. Watch the video below.

Rose has not been one of the season’s best dancers, but on week four, her routine was called “beautiful.” The TV personality’s breakthrough dance also came on the heels of controversy between her and judge Julianne Hough last week. After Rose put her leg up high against Chmerkovskiy, Hough said it made her feel “uncomfortable.”

After her Argentine tango but before the judges’ comments, Rose addressed how she felt “body shamed” by Hough the previous week. Hough responded that it was certainly not her intention, and noted she was “solely here to judge you on the dancing.” And this week, Hough loved Rose’s routine.

Following her and Chmerkovskiy’s Argentine tango, amidst the backdrop of Cirque du Soleil’s “Zumanity,” Hough exclaimed, “This is your essense… This is who you are… and you delivered!” She added, “You gave me the energy that I wanted to see.” Bruno Tonioliexpressed, “Presentation… beautiful! Taste… hot! Content… plenty of it!” And Carrie Ann Inaba praised Rose for “embracing all of you through dance.” She further noted that it was “such a pleasure to watch you tonight.”

For her dance, Rose and Chmerkovskiy received a total of 24 out of 30 points. Check out the video below of Amber Rose and Maksim Chmerkovskiy dancing with performers from Cirque du Soleil’s “Zumantiy” on “Dancing With The Stars.”

Courtney Harrell “The Voice” Audition Video: Watch “Let It Go” Performance!

2016-10-03T21:36:00.002-04:00

Courtney Harrell performed an emotional cover of James Bay’s “Let It Go” during Monday’s “The Voice.” Watch below!

Harrell revealed before taking the stage that she put aside singing to care for her son, and found a career as a songwriter for stars like Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Kelly Rowland and Jennifer Hudson. Now her audition for the NBC competition marked her first time giving a performance for herself in 15 years. The powerful rendition of Bay’s breakout song had Alicia Keys pounding her button over and over again, and she joined Blake Shelton in a standing ovation.

It was Shelton who spoke first, admitting, “I don’t think this is fair because I’m not Alicia Keys.” Still he went on, “But I just heard a brilliant voice… All I can do is tell you I have mad respect for your voice. I can’t even believe how good that performance was.”

Keys then told Harrell, “I felt so much of your soul,” and went on to speak about understanding the contestant. But it was Shelton who surprisingly got the win. Harrell explained afterward, “I think he respects true artistry. I trust that I’m going to be able to thrive and flourish under his mentorship.”

Shelton also confessed, “I’m as shocked as anyone out there that she chose me as her coach.” Check out the video below!

Natasha Bure “The Voice” Audition Video: Watch Candace Cameron’s Daughter Perform!

2016-10-03T21:27:00.002-04:00

Candace Cameron Bure’s daughter Natasha Bure auditioned for “The Voice” on Monday’s episode. Check out the video below!

Natasha is the oldest child of Candace Cameron and her husband Valeri Bure. Now 18 years old, she’s taking a gap year to focus on music. In fact, as Extreme Entertainment reported, Natasha surprised her famous mom with a special performance as Candace celebrated her 40th birthday on “The View” back in April.

Now with the “Full House” star watching backstage and the coaches unaware of her star connection, Natasha was in tears from nerves before she even went out for her Blind Audition. But she sang “Can’t Help Falling In Love” beautifully, and Adam Levine pushed his button to turn around.

“I heard this self-assured girl singing really well and it was really pretty. There was something there that was different and special,” he told the teen. But, he said, Natasha had a “nervous breakdown” right after he hit and faced her.

Levine noted, “I think, had you not kind of fallen apart there, you would have had more people challenging me.” He went on to tell Natasha, “I’m really curious and really excited to see what we’re gonna accomplish,” and even said he’d put her through “nerves and self confidence boot camp.”

Perhaps needless to say, but mom Candace was ecstatic. Watch below!

You can’t help but fall in love with @natashabure after this Blind Audition. #VoiceBlinds pic.twitter.com/U9pUQaVOl0

Calvin Johnson Nails Charleston On ‘Dancing With The Stars’ Cirque Du Soleil Night (VIDEO)

2016-10-03T20:27:00.003-04:00

Calvin Johnson and his partner Lindsay Arnold wowed the judges and audience alike on Monday’s “Dancing With The Stars.” They danced a charleston on the show’s “Cirque du Soleil” night. Watch the video below.

Last week, Johnson had the highest score of all the dancers during “Face Off” night. He and Arnold received 32 out of 40 points. No one has scored more than that this entire season. The former football star danced a Viennese Waltz to beat Terra Jole and Sasha Farber.

Johnson has been one of this season’s stronger competitors. For his cha cha during the premiere, he got 26 out of 40 points. And in the second week of competition, Johnson and Arnold received 28 out of a total of 40 points on “TV Night” for their foxtrot to the“Family Matters” theme song.

For his charleston on Monday, which featured performers and acrobats from the Cirque du Soleil show “Kurios,” Carrie Ann Inaba said, “Your lifts were impressive” and “footwork was fantastic.” Julianne Hough remarked that the charleston is about being light on one’s toes, and “you completely nailed that.” And Bruno Tonioli thought his “timing was excellent.”

As a result, Johnson and Arnold received a total of 23 out of 30 points. Check out the video below of Calvin Johnson and Lindsay Arnold dancing against the backdrop of the Cirque du Soleil show “Kurios” on “Dancing With The Stars.”

Whitney And Shannon “The Voice” Audition Video: Watch Sisters’ “Landslide” Duet Performance!

2016-10-03T20:19:00.001-04:00

Sisters Whitney and Shannon turned all four chairs on Monday’s “The Voice,” the last auditions episode of season 11. Watch below!

The aspiring stars had not performed together in quite some time, but you wouldn’t know that from their seemingly effortless Blind Audition. Singing “Landslide,” the sisters showcased stunning harmonies. The coaches’ reaction when they realized there were two performers on stage was actually quite priceless.

Adam Levine was the first to hit his button, setting off a chain reaction. Blake Shelton and Miley Cyrus immediately turned around right after him. And then Alicia Keys pushed, too, after Cyrus told her, “You want this!” It all culminated in a standing ovation from the entire panel.

After the requisite jokes about the contestants unexpectedly being a duo, Levine said, “You guys harmonizing, you can’t teach something like that. That collaboration is really, really a tough dance, and it either works or it’s a mess. And it was really, really, really beautiful.”

Shelton honed in on the country tone in the girls’ voices, and also noted, “Being a duo and being successful on this show has only happened one time. And I’m proud to say it was on my team and it was with The Swon Brothers, and I want you guys to think about that.”

Keys went next, telling the sisters, “There’s no box for you for where you are gonna fit in. You’re everywhere. And that’s where I see you, and I’d like to help you get there. The world needs to see the two of you.” The Grammy winner was so passionate, she stood again as she continued to make her pitch. “I know that us together would be so powerful, so incredibly crazy powerful,” Keys said.

And Cyrus received nods when she called out the siblings’ “psychic connection,” and went on to share her own connection to “Landslide.” But in the end, the two singers could only pick one coach. And they went with Keys! Check out the video below!

Kim Kardashian NOT To Blame For Paris Robbery (COMMENTARY)

2016-10-03T20:17:00.001-04:00

Kim Kardashian should NOT be blamed for getting robbed in Paris, despite that insinuation being made in People magazine’s interview with a security expert who contends that the reality star made herself a target. Extreme Entertainment, however, disagrees with blaming the victim of a crime.

As Extreme Entertainment reported, Kardashian was held at gunpoint in her Paris apartment early Monday morning by five masked men who tied her up and stole more than $10 million worth of jewelry. She was physically unharmed during the frightening ordeal, but her rep told us she was left “badly shaken.”

Shortly after the incident, People interviewed a managing partner of an international security consulting firm to weigh in. The man argued that Kardashian’s “tendency to document everything from her whereabouts to her expensive jewelry on social media made her a target for robbery.” He told the magazine, “Obviously she can’t be low-profile where she’s staying if she’s advertising what she’s doing and advertising her wealth.”

The security expert went on to say Kardashian was “increasing the chances of a possible attack” by sharing her personal life on social media, adding, “It wasn’t something, like, they were just walking down the street and said, ‘Oh, I heard that Kardashian was here. Let’s just go in and rob her.’ This was an organized attacked based on known information.” The man even goes as far as to say the reality star was “soliciting” such an incident, then adds, “If you really are concerned about your personal security then you’ve really got to make it as difficult as possible for people to hone in on you as a possible target.”

But whether or not one agrees with a person’s decision to document their life and show off their wealth on social media, it still doesn’t mean Kardashian should be blamed for a crime committed against her. In fact, as Extreme Entertainment reported, Kardashian feared she’d be raped by the robbers. People magazine’s article is essentially blaming the reality star for what happened to her, instead of focusing on the five armed criminals who broke into Kardashian’s hotel room and bound and gagged her in a bathroom as they took her valuables.

The outlet also chooses to focus on the hypothetical mistakes made by the reality star, and then faults her for not having extra security because she’s a celebrity. But just because Kardashian shared on social media that she was in France and in possession of jewelry, does not justify an attack by assailants. Simply put, Kardashian is not to blame for what happened to her, and the insinuation otherwise is just wrong.

Kim Kardashian Feared She’d Be Raped By Robbers

2016-10-03T20:14:00.001-04:00

Kim Kardashian feared she would be raped by her robbers, Extreme Entertainment confirms. Kardashian was dressed only in a robe when the brazen gunmen entered her Paris apartment early Monday morning and stormed into her bedroom on the second floor. The reality star was able to see them through a glass door and attempted to call her bodyguard, but one of the robbers ripped the cell phone away from her before she could complete the call.

Immediately, Kardashian’s hands were bound by plastic zip ties and then secured with duct tape. Next, her ankles were grabbed, and while Kardashian was afraid then that she was going to be rape, confirms our source, the robbers instead duct taped the bottom of her legs. Once her leg and arms were bound, the gunmen placed her inside a bathtub.

Kardashian then yelled and pleaded with the robbers to spare her life because she has two small children, and just take all of her money. After the reality star directed them to where her $4.5 million engagement ring was, as well as other pricey jewelry, the gunmen duct taped her mouth shut because she was screaming and crying.

A friend of Kardashian’s, who was staying in the building, found Kardashian after the gunmen left, and called the TV star’s bodyguard Pascal, who was out on the town in Paris with Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner. The robbers were well gone when he arrived, and the police were called.

As Extreme Entertainment previously reported, Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint early Monday morning in Paris. The robbers got away with more than $10 million worth of jewelry. Her rep told us shortly afterwards that Kardashian was “badly shaken but physically unharmed.”

Since the incident, Extreme Entertainment has corrected a number of inaccurate claims. One report we debunked was that her kids, North and Saint, were in Paris with her at the time, but they were actually in New York with Kanye West. We also busted an entirely fabricated article that contended Kardashian “staged” the robbery.

Kim Kardashian Robbery: Fact Vs. Fiction

2016-10-03T17:49:00.001-04:00

Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint less than 24 hours ago, and already unscrupulous outlets are making up stories about the ordeal. Extreme Entertainment can separate the fact from the fiction.

FICTION: Kim Kardashian “staged” the robbery, according to MediaTakeOut.
FACT: The webloid, with no actual proof, insisted that Kardashian “faked” being held up at gunpoint for “attention.” To back up the bold assertion, MediaFakeOut presented a few different theories. But not a single one of them held up. Not to mention, Kardashian would be in serious legal trouble if she filed a false police report and wasted police resources.

FICTION: North and Saint West were in Paris at the time of the robbery, but Kim Kardashian “conveniently” had them in a different hotel, according to MediaTakeOut.
FACT: This was part of the site’s aforementioned story, as MTO claimed it was evidence that Kardashian planned the robbery as a stunt. But North and Saint were NOT in Paris. They were actually in New York, where Kanye West was based at the time of the incident.

FICTION: Kanye West was “unfazed” by Kim Kardashian’s robbery, according to OK!.
FACT: The tabloid outrageously alleged West was “heartless” and didn’t care about what happened to his wife because he looked “unfazed” when paparazzi took his picture the morning after the crime. In actuality, West looked tired, sad and somber, and he only stepped out because Kardashian was arriving back in New York City after rushing home to the U.S. following the traumatic experience. Far from being “unfazed,” he’s doing everything he can to be there for her, and the magazine had no evidence otherwise.

FICTION: Kim Kardashian is to blame for getting robbed, because she posted about her location and jewelry on social media, according to a People “security expert.”
FACT: This is not a black and white one. The magazine quoted a so-called “expert,” who said of Kardashian, “If you’re constantly putting information out there, keeping your name in the public eye… keeping details of your wealth in the public eye then you are… increasing the chances of a possible attack.” That is essentially saying Kardashian asked for this, much like it’s offensively said women asked to be raped when they wear short skirts. No matter what Kardashian put on social media, that she was in France and wearing diamonds, does not warrant people invading her home and robbing her. There is simply no excuse for it, and Kardashian is not to blame for what happened to her.

The robbery investigation is likely to continue for some time, and Extreme Entertainment expects the unfortunate situation to lead to more questionable reporting. We’ll continue to show what’s real and what’s rumor as necessary.

Lady Gaga “Beat Out” Britney Spears For Super Bowl Halftime Show?

2016-10-03T17:43:00.001-04:00

Did Lady Gaga “beat out” Britney Spears for the Super Bowl Halftime Show gig? A report claims Gaga defeated her fellow pop star and scored a “big win.” Extreme Entertainment has the real story.

The National Enquirer writes on its website, “Lady Gaga will be doing the coveted Halftime Show at the 2017 Super Bowl — despite her new single being one of the year’s biggest flops.” According to the outlet, Gaga “still beat out” Spears because “Britney blew her Super Bowl bid by being too desperate.” A so-called “insider” is quoted as telling the publication, “It’s embarrassing. Britney wants to make a comeback so badly, but she’s not in demand like the Adeles and the Beyonces of the world.”

The magazine goes on to note, “Britney also had to win over the NFL after a cringe-inducing and lip-synched performance at the recent MTV Video Music Awards.” Not once, though, is it actually said how Spears acted “desperate” to get the Super Bowl job. That’s because she never did.

Spears was never in serious talks to be the 2017 Super Bowl Halftime performer. In fact,Extreme Entertainment was told that she wasn’t in negotiations by a reliable contact long before Gaga won the opportunity. How could Gaga “beat out” someone who wasn’t in contention in the first place?

Quite simply, she didn’t. Gaga got the gig on her own merits. It had nothing to do with Spears “blowing her Super Bowl bid,” because that never happened.

Liam Hemsworth NOT Dumping Miley Cyrus Over Career Choices, Despite Report

2016-10-03T15:43:00.004-04:00

Liam Hemsworth is NOT dumping Miley Cyrus because he disagrees with her career choices, despite a made-up tabloid report. Extreme Entertainment can exclusively debunk this claim. We’re told there’s “no truth” to it.

According to OK!, the actor is rethinking his relationship with his fiancee because he wants her to embark on a serious acting career, but she’d rather stay a provocative singer. A so-called “source” tells the magazine, “Liam’s really unhappy about this turn of events. He’d hoped her Woody Allen TV show might have curbed any desire to go back to her wild stage persona.”

The outlet’s dubious insider further purports, “It’s a real blow for him because he was willing to do another movie with her and really help build up her acting career. They’ve been having spats and the whole idea that they would get married this summer is completely out the window.” The tabloid’s questionable source also says that Cyrus is eager to get back to
“performing and touring,” which has Hemsworth convinced “she wants out,” and he supposedly wants to end their engagement as well.

Extreme Entertainment, however, checked in with a reliable source close to the situation, who exclusively assures us there’s simply “no truth” to the magazine’s story. We’re told Hemsworth has always been supportive of Cyrus’s career, and it’s never caused any issues in their relationship. Unfortunately, we’re not surprised by the tabloid’s tall tale, as Extreme Entertainment has repeatedly called out OK! for publishing lies about the couple.

We recently busted the outlet for wrongly reporting Cyrus and Hemsworth were starring in a sequel to The Last Song. And shortly before that piece of fiction, we shot down the tabloid’s claim Hemsworth was having “second thoughts” about Cyrus. This latest report is just more nonsense from the frequently unreliable magazine.

Nina Agdal Doesn’t Get Along With Leonardo DiCaprio’s Friends?

2016-10-03T15:38:00.002-04:00

Nina Agdal doesn’t get along with Leonardo DiCaprio’s friends? A new report claims the situation is jeopardizing the couple’s relationship. But only Extreme Entertainment has the exclusive truth.

“Over Already? Nina Agdal Has A Major Deal Breaker With Eternal Bachelor Leonardo DiCaprio,” reads a headline on the OK! website. It’s said, “Nina Agdal may be dating the world’s hottest actor, but she’s not entirely happy! Sources told OK! Magazine the 24-year-old model has issues with hot new flame, Leo DiCaprio’s ‘frat boy’ friends, including Lukas Haas and Jonah Hill.”

One such “source” is quoted as telling the tabloid, “Unlike lots of Leo’s other women, Nina’s really smart, but she feels like his friends just view her as a dumb model. She’ll try to start an interesting conversation when they’re around, but with the wolf pack it’s all sports talk and dumb jokes.” The alleged tipster adds that Agdal finds the dynamic “pathetic,” and thinks “they all need to grow up.”

OK! should grow up, too, and stop trying to stir up trouble where there is none. Extreme Entertainment spoke with ACTUAL sources close to the couple, who exclusively tells us, “Nina gets along great with all of Leo’s friends.” One of contacts even noted that the claims “sound like a hater trying to start something.” We’re also told that the outlet “never even reached out” to Agdal’s camp before running the untrue allegations. Now THAT’S pathetic.

Kanye West NOT “Unfazed” By Kim Kardashian Robbery, Despite Report

2016-10-03T14:36:00.002-04:00

Kanye West is NOT “unfazed” by Kim Kardashian’s robbery, despite a ridiculous report. On the contrary,Extreme Entertainment is told the rapper is understandably quite upset that his wife was held up at gunpoint.

The outlet questioning West’s reaction to Kardashian’s ordeal is OK!, and the tabloid is making its claims on nothing but paparazzi photos of the performer. On its website, the magazine blares, “So Heartless? Kanye West Looks Unphased After Kim Kardashian’s Terrifying Robbery Seen For The First Time In NYC.”

It’s said in the accompanying photo gallery, “Kanye West kept his poker face while in New York City, seen for the first time since Kim Kardashian’s horrifying robbery at gunpoint in Paris. The rapper was seen leaving his NYC pad on Oct. 3 in the early morning hours looking relatively unphased.”

In actuality, West looks tired, sad, and somber. Nothing about his facial expressions suggest he’s “heartless.” And if he was so “unphased” [sic] by what happened to his wife, why did West abruptly leave the stage Sunday night upon hearing the news and cancel the rest of his set?

Yes, West stepped out briefly Monday morning, but he did so in anticipation of Kardashian’s return to New York. Concerned for her well-being, he ushered her into their apartment building after her arrival. He is 100 percent focused right now on Kardashian’s safety,Extreme Entertainment is told. Any suggestion that he doesn’t care about the serious incident is outrageous and false.

Kim Kardashian Robbery NOT “Staged,” Despite Report

2016-10-03T14:33:00.003-04:00

Kim Kardashian’s robbery in Paris was NOT “staged,” despite an outrageous report. Extreme Entertainment can refute the story’s claims.

MediaTakeOut is blaring in a headline, “MTO Shock Exclusive: New Evidence Suggests… Kim Kardashian And Her Mother ‘STAGED’ The Robbery… Just Like RYAN LOCHTE!! (Here Are The FACTS) #KimRobbery.” But the outlet has NO exclusive information. Instead, it has published theories that the site wrongly claims are proof Kardashian “faked” the whole thing.

“A lot of the ‘evidence’ that is being provided by the Kardashian camp and by the French authorities is just not making sense. An according [sic] to people on social media, who are digesting the facts that have been disclosed, it is starting to look like Kim may have STAGED THE ENTIRE ROBBERY,” writes the webloid, as if “people on social media” are sources to trust on this situation.

Among the weak points MTO makes is “Kim Kardashain was ‘robbed’ of $11 million in jewelry that was in a jewelry box, not in a locked safe. Who leaves $11M in jewelry out in the open?” But Kardashian was in her own apartment that Kanye West owns at the No Address Hotel, which has private residences. That is the couple’s home. Typically, there isn’t reason to lock up jewelry in your own home.

“Kim not harmed? According to Kim’s publicist, five masked men with GUNS tied her up in her home. They claim that not one of them did ANYTHING inappropriate. Kim is either VERY lucky…,” says the outlet. But it is not uncommon for people to be held up without injury. Many home invasions, such as this one, are about getting valuable goods, not physically harming the victim. And Extreme Entertainment would argue that binding and gagging Kardashian counts as “inappropriate.”

The site goes on to note, “Kim immediately left the country after the incident. Within three hours after the incident, Kim was on a plane OUT OF FRANCE. You would think that police wanted her to stay, so that they can talk to her about leads.” In actuality, Kardashian was granted permission to leave the country AFTER she met with police and gave her statement. She is not the perpetrator, so there is no reason for her to be held in the country.

MTO also finds it odd that Kardashian’s bodyguard wasn’t with her at the time of the robbery, and calls it “convenient” that her children “were with her in Paris — just in a different home.” First off, again, Kardashian was in her own Paris home. Typically, a security guard would not be needed within her private residence, so instead, he was guarding Kendall Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian as they were out partying. Second, daughter North was actually in New York, where father Kanye West was staying. She was not in Paris, contrary to MediaFakeOut’s claim.

Lastly, the webloid suggests that Kardashian may have “staged” the robbery because “ratings of the Kardashian shows are at an ALL TIME LOW.” Yet this would be a pretty disturbing way to purposefully “increase the public’s interest in the family.” Kardashian would face charges for filing a false police report, and the French Interior Ministry would not have confirmed the situation had it been “faked.”

MediaFakeOut ends its piece by saying, “We’re not yet ready to say with 100% certainty that Kim FAKED THE ROBBERY, but it’s really starting to look that way.” No, it’s not. None of these claims actually hold up. West was right when he called “so f*ckin’ full of sh*t” several years ago. Nothing’s changed.

Spencer Pratt Mocks Kim Kardashian Robbery

2016-10-03T14:30:00.002-04:00

Spencer Pratt is mocking Kim Kardashian in the wake of Monday’s armed robbery. The former reality star has fired off more than a dozen tweets making light of the scary situation.

As Extreme Entertainment reported, in the early morning hours on Monday in Paris,Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint. She was bound and gagged, and had millions worth of jewelry stolen from her. Thankfully, she was able to escape uninjured.

Before all the facts of the frightening situation were known, and even after, Pratt sent a number of messages on Twitter joking about the life-threatening incident. “Kim didn’t snapchat her robbery so don’t believe these sources,” the former star of “The Hills” said in one his earliest tweets on the matter. He went on crack, “Breaking: TAYLOR SWIFT is not suspect.”

“I will always remember where I was drinking when Kim was robbed,” Pratt later wrote. He also made quips about Kardashian stealing attention away from Lindsay Lohan, as well as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. At one point, the controversial personality tried to downplay his snarky comments, writing, “obviously there is nothing funny about this” and “This is how I cope.”

But he still went on to sarcastically say, “France better put anti terror squad on this case now!” When James Corden tweeted against those mocking Kardashian, Pratt accused, “James Corden out here tryna get yeezy karaoke.” And after a break of several hours, Pratt returned with more snide remarks.

He cracked, “messing with Kim is attack on America! France better make this right I’m furious Paris police didn’t have police protection for Kim especially after that scum assaulted her earlier in the week.” Pratt even went on to blame Kardashian for what happened to her.

“this is scary lesson not to snapchat your location,” Pratt argued. “I don’t mean only famous people either. Not safe putting your location on social media.” Of course, Kardashian making it publicly known she’s in Paris does not make it okay for anyone to rob her.

And to further underscore how not serious he thought incident was, Pratt mockingly added, “For real tho where is apology from French president.” Meanwhile, other celebrity reactions have been a show of support for Kardashian.

Nate Parker Addresses Rape Accusation: Watch ‘GMA’ Interview (VIDEO)

2016-10-03T14:28:00.002-04:00

Nate Parker appeared on Monday’s “Good Morning America” to discuss his new slave drama, Birth of a Nation, but the filmmaker also addressed being accused of raping a fellow classmate while he was a student at Penn State University in 1999. Watch the “GMA” video below.

Parker, the director, co-writer, and star of Birth of a Nation, and the film’s co-writer, Jean Celestin, were accused of raping a white female classmate in their dorm room in the late ’90s. The men claimed the sex was consensual, but the accuser said she was intoxicated and unable to consent. Parker was acquitted of the charges, but Celestin was found guilty before the verdict was overturned on appeal. Their accuser went on to commit suicide in 2012.

When asked on Monday’s “GMA” if he feels remorse about the situation, Parker said, “Look, I was on ’60 Minutes’ last night. We talked about it. I think the important thing, you know, is this isn’t about me.” The filmmaker went on to insist the “focus” should be placed on his film, which tells the true story of Nat Turner leading a slave rebellion in 1831. He added, “The story of Nat Turner as an American, as American people, the story about a man who was erased from history.”

But when host Robin Roberts contended the rape controversy is a major topic that should be discussed in addition to his movie, Parker responded, “I’ve addressed it so many times… At some point, you know, I’ve talked about it and I keep talking about it.” He added, “I was falsely accused. I was proven innocent and I’m not going to apologize for that. I feel terribly about that situation but at some point we have to ask ourselves, is this a film that’s important to us?” Watch Parker’s full “GMA” interview below.

Celebrities React: Kim Kardashian Robbed At Gunpoint

2016-10-03T14:26:00.001-04:00

Celebrities are expressing support for Kim Kardashian after she was robbed at gunpoint. See stars’ Twitter reactions below.

As Extreme Entertainment reported, Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in Paris on Monday local time. During the frightening ordeal, men posing as police officers held a bound and gagged Kardashian in a bathroom as they stole millions of dollars worth of jewelry. Thankfully, Kardashian was uninjured in the terrifying incident, but, as her rep told Extreme Entertainment, she was left “badly shaken.”

Some on social media were quick to mock Kardashian, which prompted a strong defense from close pal Chrissy Teigen. “Some sh*t just isn’t funny. I see you trying, but it isn’t,” she tweeted. “Fame is interesting. Celebs are supposed to love you guys while also knowing you’d make a meme of our dead bodies to get retweets.”

One follower wrote to Teigen in response, “No one likes robbery at gunpoint. Then again should people feel sorry for someone who owns millions of $ in jewelry alone?” The model replied, “No one is begging you for sympathy. I know the game plan is to naturally hate celebrities.” She went on to add, “Please do not think that I think celebrities are special snowflakes. I just miss empathy, in general, for everyone.”

James Corden was also among those calling out negative comments, tweeting, “People making jokes about @KimKardashian tonight would do well to remember that she’s a mother, a daughter, a wife, a friend. Be nice or shut up.” Piers Morgan, who has criticized Kardashian at length over the last year, retweeted Corden’s comment, adding, “Agreed. Obviously a very nasty & serious situation.”

He further said, “Feel very sorry for @KimKardashian. Must have been a terrifying experience. #Paris #robbery.” And when called a “hypocrite” for expressing support, Morgan retorted, “Sorry? I can’t object to her naked selfies but also feel sorry for her being robbed at gunpoint? Stop being ridiculous.”

Sherri Shepherd also tweeted, “Just heard about @KimKardashian being robbed @gun point. So glad she’s okay. Kim you’re a, wife, mother, sister & praying woman #Godsgotyou.” Steve Harvey remarked, “Wow, this is crazy. Hope everyone’s ok.” Teresa Giudice commented, “So scary hearing what happened to @KimKardashian in Paris.” Tom Green even said, “Sorry to hear about this. Happy to hear everybody is safe.”

And The Color Purple star Cynthia Erivo posted, “Glad @KimKardashian is ok! No human being deserves the treatment she’s had this week.” The Tony winner was referring to notorious prankster Vitalii Sediuk attacking Kardashian in Paris, just days before the armed robbery.

Kim Kardashian Robbed At Gunpoint In Paris Hotel Room

2016-10-03T14:23:00.000-04:00

Kim Kardashian was “held up” inside her Paris hotel room on Sunday. While thankfully uninjured, Kardashian was “badly shaken.” The reality star has not personally commented on the frightening incident.

In a statement to Extreme Entertainment, her rep said, “Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room this evening by two armed masked men dressed as police officers. She is badly shaken but physically unharmed.” What we have since learned is that there may have been as many as five men pretending to be cops who perpetrated this highly planned burglary.

The gun-yielding men handcuffed the private hotel’s concierge after he gave at least two of the armed robbers access to Kardashian’s quarters. She was then tied up with tape and had her mouth shut closed. As she begged for her life, a bound and gagged Kardashian was placed in a bathtub while the robbers made off with two of her cellphones and more than $10 million dollars worth of jewelry, including a $4.5 million ring.

Back in the U.S., Kardashian’s husband Kanye West was performing at The Meadows Music And Arts Festival in Queens, New York when he signaled something serious had taken place with his family. The singer was performing his song “Heartless” when he was notified onstage by another man of the scary news. West immediately told the crowd, “I’m sorry. Family emergency. I have to stop the show,” before rushing off the stage (video below).

Kardashian has been in France for Paris Fashion Week for the past few days with her mom Kris Jenner and sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner. None of her other family members have made mention of Kardashian being robbed at gunpoint. Earlier in the day, she attended the Balenciaga show.

Just a few days ago, Kardashian was attacked by notorious prankster Vitalii Sediuk. As the reality star was walking in Paris, Sediuk ran up to her, kneeled down, and kissed her behind. Kardashian’s security team grabbed him on the spot and threw Sediuk to the ground.

Extreme Entertainment will update as soon as we receive more information about Kardashian being held up at gunpoint in her Paris hotel room.

‘Rob & Chyna’ Recap: Blac Chyna Reunites Rob Kardashian With Old Friends

2016-10-03T14:20:00.002-04:00

Blac Chyna helped Rob Kardashian reunite with old friends he hadn’t seen in years on Sunday’s “Rob & Chyna.” Get the full episode recap below!

As the episode began, Rob and Chyna were still in Washington D.C. visiting Chyna’s mom, Tokyo Toni, who had an emotional conversation with the two of them. After tearing up and insisting that Rob treat her daughter right, she asked her future son-in-law, “Are you cheating?” Rob insisted he was being faithful, but Tokyo asked to see his cell phone. Rob complied, but when she thought she came across a scandalous image, Rob noted, “That’s my sister.”

Back in Los Angeles, Chyna and Rob discussed their relationship and admitted they moved too fast, with Rob noting, “We probably should’ve got to know each other a little better.” But he insisted he was “very committed” to their relationship and wanted to build it even stronger. Later, Scott Disick asked Rob about where he stands with Chyna’s ex, Tyga, and Rob acknowledged, “He’s not gonna go out of his way to say hi to me.” Scott didn’t understand why there was still animosity, so Rob posed the question, “If Kourtney [Kardashian] had a kid with somebody else, would you be mad?” “I’d be in jail,” Scott replied, and Rob explained it was the “same thing” with Tyga, to which he responded, “This is one f***ed up family.”

Scott then asked Rob why he hadn’t been in touch with his best friends in a long time, telling him, “All they want to do is spend time with you. I guarantee you with all those guys around you supporting you, you’ll feel way better.” Rob, however, was hesitant to reach out to his pals after going so long without communicating. Later, Scott and Chyna discussed finding a way to reunite Rob and his friends so they can start spending time together again. “I feel like he’s got all of these friends that he grew up with that you don’t even know,” Scott told her. “They keep calling me, like, ‘Why have I not met Rob’s future wife?’” Chyna then admitted in a confessional that she doesn’t know any of Rob’s friends, but is eager to meet them. The two then decided they would plan a barbecue for everyone.

Rob later surprised Chyna with dinner “under the stars,” setting up a romantic date in their backyard. “Aw Robert!” Chyna said when she saw he had cooked for her, and added in a confessional, “I can’t even believe that Rob took the initiative and had this romantic date for me. It shows me that he really is listening and I feel like that’s a big step forward.” Rob told his fiancee, “I wanted to do something with just you and me enjoying each other.”

The next day, Chyna set up her own picnic date for Rob to show him that she’s “committed” to their relationship. During the date, she asked, “Do you see us getting married next year?” When he replied “Yeah,” she followed up by asking, “And are we gonna work towards doing the right thing towards each other so that we can make that happen?” He answered, “Trying to marry this chick so I can do that. I gotta care about a lot more than just myself.”

Rob later stopped by sister Kim Kardashian’s house to learn some parenting skills and go through “baby boot camp.” Kim first explained how to change a diaper, and then using a baby doll as a prop, she taught her brother how to properly swaddle a child in a blanket. As he finished wrapping up the baby, Kim exclaimed, “You did it!” and Rob added in a confessional, “I’m gonna need plenty of more swaddling lessons, but I’m definitely happy with the progress I’m making.”

Scott and Kourtney Kardashian stopped by Rob and Chyna’s house for the reunion barbecue, which Rob was very anxious about. A handful of Rob’s old friends soon showed up, but he at first felt a bit awkward around them. Rob’s best friend JJ noted that Rob hadn’t responded to his text messages in a year and a half despite him reaching out once a week. Rob’s other friend, Riley, added that Rob has ignored all of his texts as well. Rob admitted in a confessional he missed JJ’s wedding, adding, “JJ has plenty of reasons to be mad at me… so I just need to get over that little uncomfortable feeling and maintain that relationship with these guys.”

But soon, Rob started enjoying himself while catching up and reconnecting with all of the guys, and promised he’d start responding to everybody’s text messages. He further acknowledged in a confessional it was “good to see all of them,” adding, “I have definitely made a bunch of mistakes over the last few years, but I’ve known all of them since the fourth grade so I just need to really be proactive and work on having a really positive relationship.” And as the episode ended, Chyna let Rob know how proud she was of him for reuniting with his old friends.

Ariana Grande Copying Taylor Swift?

2016-09-30T17:06:00.002-04:00

Is Ariana Grande copying Taylor Swift? A report claims Grande wants to “mimic” Swift by becoming a country star. Extreme Entertainment can separate the fact from the fiction.

“Ariana Grande Undergoes Major Transformation: Singer Turns Country, Plans To Mimic Taylor Swift’s Brand?” reads a headline from Celeb Dirty Laundry, which asks “Is Ariana Grande planning a bold new career move?” According to the site, “That’s what everyone can’t help but wonder as the ‘Dangerous Woman’ revealed that she might make a possible country crossover happen in the future. In fact, Ariana might become the next Taylor Swift by tapping into a whole new genre while expanding her fan base at the same time.”

The outlet says that “while there’s no doubting that Ariana Grande is a chart topper with a string of radio hits,” she’s “yet to become a pop princess with the same caliber as Taylor Swift.” Grande’s fame and success is deemed inferior to Swift’s, leading CDL to write, “So it’s no wonder that Ariana’s next career move is a rather bold one, as she is apparently willing to crossover to the country music market.”

And what proof is there that Grande plans to copy Swift? Well, the webloid refers to an “Entertainment Tonight” interview, quoting Grande as saying, “My grandpa, he always wanted me to do something in the country world. I don’t know if that would ever happen, but if that opportunity comes along, I’d have to say, ‘Hell yeah!’ My grandpa was like, ‘You need to do a country song.’ So, [I] gotta make that happen someday.”

But potentially recording a country music track one day in no way means Grande is undergoing a “major transformation” or “plans to mimic” Swift. And no one accused Swift of copying Grande when she did the reverse, going from country to pop. Simply put, CDL just wanted to compare the two singers, and decided to portray Grande as some kind of copycat.

That’s pure fiction, though. And, by the way, Grande didn’t even make those comments to “Entertainment Tonight,” as Celeb Dirty Laundry wrongly claims. If the outlet bothered to do proper research, it would’ve known she was talking to Z100’s Elvis Duran at last weekend’s iHeartRadio Music Festival. But it’s clear the site doesn’t give a hoot about accuracy.

Gavin Rossdale NOT Joining ‘The Voice’ To Get Revenge On Gwen Stefani, Despite Report

2016-09-30T17:01:00.002-04:00

Gavin Rossdale will be joining the U.K. version of “The Voice,” but the rocker isn’t doing so to get revenge on Gwen Stefani, despite a ridiculous webloid report. Extreme Entertainment can exclusively correct this claim. We’re told it’s “nonsense.”

The former Bush frontman announced Wednesday he’s going to be a coach on an upcoming British iteration of the popular NBC singing competition show, which his ex appeared on for two seasons. Of course, Stefani also met boyfriend Blake Shelton while working on the series, which has led Celeb Dirty Laundry to come up with the baseless theory Rossdale is taking on a similar project just to spite her. Without a single source to back up its speculation, the website claims Rossdale wants the same “publicity” that surrounded Shelton and Stefani.

The repeatedly refuted webloid goes on to allege Rossdale is “not only getting his revenge on Gwen” by co-starring on “The Voice U.K.,” but also “sending a clear message” that the “drama between them is not over yet.” The site further purports the rocker’s other reason for joining the show is “to find love the same way Gwen did with Blake.” But Extreme Entertainment checked in with a source close to the situation, and we’re exclusively assured the outlet’s story is complete “nonsense.” The British-born Rossdale’s new gig has nothing to do with Stefani, Shelton, or “revenge,” and the speculation otherwise is simply wrong.

Unfortunately, we’re not surprised by the webloid’s bogus article, as CDL doesn’t have the best track record when it comes to accurately reporting about the parties involved in this story. Extreme Entertainment previously called out the site for its tall tale about Shelton being “furious” with Stefani for spending Thanksgiving with Rossdale. The outlet’s latest claim is equally untrue.

Justin Timberlake Dances With “Graham Norton Show” Audience Member (VIDEO)

2016-09-30T16:58:00.000-04:00

Justin Timberlake couldn’t stop the feeling on the season premiere of “The Graham Norton Show.” During a funny segment with the audience, the singer-actor got up to dance with a lucky fan. Watch below!

Timberlake was on Friday’s episode of the British talk show with his Trolls co-star Anna Kendrick. They were also joined by Daniel Radcliffe. At one point, Norton said every person has a “signature dance move,” and called on audience members to show off theirs.

After the first participant said her moves were “The Sprinkler” and “The Lawn Mower,” Timberlake cracked, “Definitely into gardening.” And naturally, it was the star’s “Can’t Stop The Feeling” that played when the woman had to demonstrate the dances. The next audience member did the box step while impersonating Robert De Niro, but it was the third participant who got Timberlake out of his seat.

The woman announced she’d be doing “The Shopping Cart,” and the performer surprisingly didn’t know what it entailed. After some quick instructions, Timberlake nailed the move, much to the audience’s delight. Kendrick and Radcliffe gave hearty applause, too.

During another part of the show, Timberlake and Kendrick amusingly discussed her devastation over the recent casting changes on “The Great British Bake Off.” Check out the videos below!

Selena Gomez Problems NOT Connected To Brad Pitt Divorce, Despite Report

2016-09-30T15:05:00.002-04:00

Selena Gomez’s personal problems are not in any way connected to Brad Pitt‘s divorce from Angelina Jolie, despite a flat-out wrong report. Extreme Entertainment can debunk the speculative and sensational story.

As Extreme Entertainment has reported, Gomez canceled her “Revival World Tour” in August in order to focus on her health. The singer-actress is suffering from lupus, and opted to clear her schedule for the rest of the year. Now a month after the announcement, the National Enquirer is trying to tie her time out of the spotlight to the recent news that Pitt and Jolie are divorcing.

On its website, the supermarket tabloid purports to have the “inside story” and announces in a headline, “Selena Gomez: Pill-Popping Star’s Lust For Brad Pitt.” The article, which is filled with unverified claims, begins by saying, “Selena Gomez is hiding out from the Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie divorce battle in a rehab clinic — checking in just as The National Enquirer revealed that she’s addicted to pills!”

The magazine regurgitates sister outlet RadarOnline’s unconfirmed allegation that Gomez is being treated in a rehab facility for depression, and goes on to speculate that her issues are related to Pitt. The publication says she showed “wild behavior” earlier this year by “creating a scandal at the Golden Globes when she told reporters that she was ‘trying to find” Brad Pitt!'”

“She then proved she wasn’t kidding by getting cozy with Brad, who attended the event without Angelina,” says the tabloid, which then rehashes its untrue claims about the two getting inappropriately close and angering Jolie. The outlet adds that Gomez’s “dalliance with Brad could be attributed to an addictive personality.”

But there was NO “dalliance.” Gomez and Pitt merely chatted at the awards show, just as they did with many other stars. That happened in January, and has absolutely nothing to do with Gomez’s health now or Pitt’s divorce in September.

And though Gomez is indeed lying low (her rep has not responded to repeated requests for comment), she is in no way “hiding out” from Pitt and Jolie. She has no reason to. RadarOnline already tried blaming Pitt and Jolie’s divorce on Gomez. This new report blaming Gomez’s health issues on Pitt is just as wrong.

Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie Custody Agreement Temporarily Reached

2016-09-30T15:03:00.000-04:00

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie reached a temporary custody agreement on Friday. The deal, which was made through the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, includes new stipulations involving their six kids.

As per the terms of the three-week contract, Jolie gets full physical custody of their children, while Pitt will be granted visitation rights. However, the actor’s first visit will be overseen by a therapist, who will then decide if the actor can have his subsequent meetings go unmonitored. Pitt will also be subject to random drug and alcohol testing, while both he and Jolie must undergo individual counseling, in addition to family counseling with their children.

The Department of Children and Family Services will then decide in three weeks if the custody agreement will have to be amended or turned over to the court. As Extreme Entertainment reported, Jolie requested sole physical custody of all six children following an incident on board an international flight earlier this month. Pitt reportedly put his hands on 15-year-old son Maddox during an argument, however the actor vehemently denies allegations of child abuse, for which he’s being investigated as a result of an anonymous complaint being filed. Extreme Entertainment will have more Pitt and Jolie divorce updates as the story further develops.
