Kim Kardashian was feeling sentimental this week when she showed off an old photo of her late father, Robert Kardashian.

Kim's father would have celebrated his 68th birthday on Wednesday, so she posted a photo of the two and wrote, "Happy Birthday dad! Celebrating with angels.

"Wonder if they celebrate birthdays in heaven...if so I'm sure my dad is having the best birthday ever! Happy birthday dad," Kim continued.

The next day the 31-year-old Kardashian posted a photo of herself with her mom, Kris Jenner, her dad and her sister Khloe.

"Taking it back old school... Me, Mom, Dad & Khloe," she wrote.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Kim went to famed psychic John Edward during an episode of Kourtney & Kim Take New York in an effort to reconnect with her late dad.

But the subject quickly turned to divorce, prompting Kim to tell Kourtney she was questioning her relationship with Kris Humphries.

"What was so crazy about that was when he was talking about the divorce stuff. I honestly feel like I can’t do this anymore with Kris -- I don't want to be married anymore," Kim said.

"I feel like I got into this way too fast...you know, I’m not happy."

On The Mend! Brave Lauren Scruggs Shows Off New Prosthetic Eye

By Debbie Emery - Radar Reporter

Lauren Scruggs has bravely battled every adversity that life has thrown at her since her devastating collision with a small plane propeller, and this week the former model and fashion blogger stepped out with her prosthetic eye on display for all to see.

The 23-year-old was seen leaving the gym in her hometown of Dallas, Texas, wearing what has become her signature blue Cowboys hat and an over-sized jacket pulled down to cover her missing left hand, and while a close look reveals her left eye to be a prosthetic, it doesn’t spoil her pretty all-American good looks.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Lauren had the prosthetic fitted earlier this month after the horrific injuries to the left side of her body on December 3, which included a fractured skull, broken collarbone and brain injuries. “The ocularist carefully painted and shaped the new eye,” said mom Cheryl Scruggs.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Scruggs was back on the family blog at CaringBridge.org on Friday, updating supporters on how her brave daughter is doing 12 weeks after the accident.

“Spring is in the air, here in Dallas. The sunshine is medicinal...What we, as a family, are trying to do on a daily, minute by minute basis, is see and observe God's blessings in the midst of all the pain AND joy,” said the deeply religious parent.

“We cherish hearing positive words come from Lo's mouth, and look forward to her beautiful smile (which melts our hearts),” she said, but added that despite her progress, Lauren is still suffering.

“We also know that at times she feels like her world is caving in, when she grieves that her life is changed forever. It's when she can't get her boots off by herself, takes twice as long to get dressed, can't open a container or still can't drive, that hurts.”

On the upside, “Lo's humor is back! We have had some big time belly laughs....and it's so refreshing! Physically she's getting stronger! She received a remarkable neurological report last week! She's working hard through the grief and the ups and downs of something so painful and horrific.

“Yet, at bedtime, last night, we were all crying. Lo was down. She couldn't even explain her grief, and frankly did not want to. She was just plain angry and frustrated,” explained Cheryl.

Lauren returned to Twitter recently, where she has been thanking her supporters and tweeting photos of a trip to the slopes to watch a ski competition.

“Watching ski jumping!! Love it,” she wrote. “Such a fun weekend with sweet family and friends :).”

By Amber Goodhand - Radar Reporter

Mark this in your book of bizarre celebrity sightings.

Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking is somewhat of a regular at a Devore, California sex club, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

According to a source who has been a member of Freedom Acres swingers club for nearly half a decade, Hawking, 70, shows up to the club with a bevy of nurses and assistants and has naked woman grind on him.

"I have seen Stephen Hawking at the club more than a handful of times," the source revealed.

"He arrives with an entourage of nurses and assistants. Last time I saw him he was in the back 'play area' laying on a bed fully clothed with two naked women gyrating all over him."

The source notes that Hawking, who is wheelchair-bound due to a long-time battle with Lou Gehrig's disease, has his staff stand nearby watching while he's with the women.

"I have spoken to him on several occasions and have even shared drinks with people in his group," the insider said.

"And he'll even take photos with people in the club as long as it's in a neutral area."

As RadarOnline.com first reported, Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson's ex-husband Donn has also been spotted in the Southern California swingers club.

"But Stephen is by far the last person I ever expected to see in this club," the source said.

Whitney Houston’s Last Movie: Behind The Scenes Of Sparkle

Fri, 24 Feb 2012 22:00:34 +0000

By Alexis Tereszcuk - Radar Senior Reporter

Whitney Houston’s final movie, Sparkle, will not be released until August 17, but during filming she gave an interview to Entertainment Tonight and RadarOnline.com has video of never-before-seen footage of the superstar taken before her tragic death.

Houston, 48, was in Detroit on set, where she insisted that she be joined by her co-star and director for the interview, and in a case of eerie foreshadowing, she unwittingly revealed a connection between the movie and her subsequent funeral.

PHOTOS: Last Pictures Taken Of Whitney Houston Alive

Whitney animatedly told the ET reporter that in the movie there is a church, called New Hope Baptist Church, where her character sings in the choir and that the writers “had no idea” that it was the same name as her own childhood church.

Little did the singer know at that time that just months later she would be lovingly eulogized at that same church, during her star studded funeral.

PHOTOS: Whitney Houston Through The Years

Houston was found unconscious and unresponsive in her bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on February 11. Paramedics were called to her room but she was declared dead at 3.55 pm.

Houston was laid to rest on February 19 in a private burial attended only by close friends and family.

Basketball Wives’ Evelyn Lozada Spills Secrets Of Catfights, Cast Rifts And Her Latest Enemy

Fri, 24 Feb 2012 21:30:24 +0000

By Debbie Emery - Radar Reporter

The Basketball Wives are back with a vengeance for a new season, and RadarOnline.com caught up with the hottest star of the show, Evelyn Lozada to get the dish on the drama, the wild women, and her famous NFL-playing fiancé.

“I am happy to be with some of the ladies, I’ll say that!” Lozada told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview. “I am really good friends with Shaunie O'Neal, we were friends before the show, and Tami Roman.”

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Candid Shots Of Evelyn Lozada And Fiancé

But as any fan of the VH1 hit is well aware, there is no love lost between Evelyn and Jennifer Williams, who started season four of the show with a bang when they got into an angry cat fight in the premiere episode.

“As of now, me and Jennifer are not friends and I don't think I will ever reconcile the friendship,” the outspoken 36-year-old New Yorker told RadarOnline.com bluntly.

“In the first episode they talked about her being ‘bougie,’ when you are that person and you get a little bit of fame, you start believing the hype. She thinks she is better than everyone else.”

Along with Williams, a new adversary has joined the cast in the form of Kenya Bell, who is already rubbing all the women the wrong way.

“Most of the cast members feel she’s a little strange to say the least. She’s not really someone I would hang out with after filming, she’s not my type of person,” explained Lozada, who compared the difference of the relationship to that of her friendship with other newbie, Kesha Nichols.

“Kesha always remained herself and didn’t change, she wasn’t trying to do anything to make her mark on the show, but with Kenya she is not being herself and tries really hard to fit in.

“When you come into a fourth season, you smell B.S. from far away. It’s best to be yourself, that’s why I took a liking to Kesha. She is a really sweet girl and always seems like she is the same person on and off of the set.”

Luckily for those who don’t like Nichols, Evelyn predicts that she won’t be around for long. “I think her fakeness could definitely be Kenya’s demise.”

Lozada went on to reveal that the source of some of the the most sizzling upcoming drama is Shaquille O’Neal’s ex-wife, Shaunie, who gets into an out-of-character clash with another mystery Basketball Wife.

“Shaunie actually gets into a conflict with one the cast mates, she's usually quiet and stays out of the mess. She did have an issue with one of the ladies on the show, and I think viewers will be surprised that she voiced that and who that person ended up being,” she told RadarOnline.com.

After joining the show four years ago when she was engaged to NBA star Antoine Walker, Evelyn admitted that occasionally she regrets living her life in the spotlight.

“I have my moments, sometimes you may say something and then look at it after filming and regret it. We all have those moments,” she explained, adding that she’d make different decisions regarding a certain broken friendship if it wasn’t for the sake of the spotlight.

“I would have told Jennifer never to talk to me again, but that doesn't make sense on the show because there are cameras here and you have to tell the story even if it can be frustrating.”

Along with filming the fourth season until the end of March, Lozada has her hands full with her new makeup line, E By Evelyn, her first book The Inner Circle, to be released in June, and most importantly, her upcoming wedding to New England Patriots player Chad Ochocinco.

“We’re getting married this summer in Florida – I can’t believe it’s just a few months away!” the excited bride gushed to RadarOnline.com.

After her tanning session at the Closer To The Sun salon in West Reading, the former Kate Plus 8 star looked like she had just stepped off a plane from a tropical vacation.

Maybe Kate’s new tan will help her find a new man, as RadarOnline.com previously reported, Kate got tearful on Wednesday as she told Dr. Drew Pinsky that she finds the single life “so lonely” but realizes it would take a very special man to take on eight kids and that she doesn’t really know if she is ready to meet him right now.

Duggar Family Extortion: The 'Incriminating' Photos Revealed

Fri, 24 Feb 2012 20:00:14 +0000

By Amber Goodhand - Radar Reporter

The Duggar family was at the center of an extortion scandal after a woman claimed Amy Duggar was having an affair with a man 21 years older than her, and now RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal the photos she thought were worth $10,000.

Teresa Hunt was arrested and charged with extortion after she pitched what she deemed "incriminating and damning" photos of Amy and James Garrett engaged in a relationship together to various media outlets, including RadarOnline.com.

The woman then reached out to Discovery Communications, parent company of the network TLC, which airs the Duggar family’s 19 Kids and Counting, to pay her $10,000 or cancel the family show to keep her from releasing the "shocking photos" of Amy, a first cousin of the family.

"As you can tell from the photos, they are anything but incriminating," James told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

PHOTOS: Cutest Celebrity Kids

"I wanted the world to see the photos so that there would be no question left in anyone's mind about any sort of relationship other than a platonic, working friendship between Amy and I."

James, 56, stars in a John Denver tribute show in Branson, Missouri, and although he and Amy spend a lot of time together he tells us it's strictly business related.

"On January 6 I got an urgent message from Amy Duggar, so I called her back and she explained that someone was trying to extort the Duggar family and the Discovery Channel for $10,000," James exclusively told RadarOnline.com.

"She went on to say that it involved racy photos of the two of us. We actually enjoyed a good laugh because we obviously knew they didn't exist! But it was still a bit unsettling to us though."

Teresa is currently being held on the extortion charges and sentencing is expected to occur within the next three months, with a two-year prison term maximum.

Survivor Producer Accused Of Murdering His Wife Speaks Out From Jail For The First Time

Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:00:43 +0000

By Radar Staff

Survivor producer Bruce Beresford-Redman, who is accused of killing his wife, Monica, in Cancun, almost two years ago, has broken his silence from his jail cell in Mexico, and he says he didn't kill his wife, RadarOnline.com is reporting.

“This is the first time I’ve chosen to speak”, Beresford-Redman tells CBS' 48 Hours in an exclusive interview with the network that will air on Saturday night. “Everyone seems to have decided that I killed my wife. I didn’t kill my wife, I really didn’t.

“For anyone who really believes, as you’re supposed to believe, in America, that you’re innocent until you’re proven guilty, please, take a look at the evidence, or in this case the absolute complete lack of evidence, and don’t rush to judgment. This is not CSI or Law and Order or any of those shows where at the end we have a satisfying resolution. I doubt that there will ever be a satisfying resolution for this because the evidence is gone. Even if I do manage to get off, I don’t know if Monica’s killers will ever really be caught.”

PHOTOS: Celebs Involved In Murder

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, after being held in a California federal prison for more than a year, the Emmy nominated producer was formally extradited back to Mexico to face murder charges that he killed Monica while they were on vacation. The troubled couple had embarked on a family trip in a last ditch effort to save their marriage after Monica discovered Bruce was cheating on her.

Bruce, Monica and their young children had been staying at the Moon Palace resort in Cancun, when Monica, 41, was reported missing after not returning from a shopping trip. Her body was found in a sewer at the resort on April 8, 2010, and authorities said there were signs of asphyxiation and major damage to her right temple.

RadarOnline.com's Legal Editor, Jen Heger was also interviewed by 48 Hours, and discussed the case that has made international headlines.

Tune in to CBS' 48 Hours on Saturday night at 10 p.m. to watch the entire exclusive interview.

By Debbie Emery - Radar Reporter

Now this is just barking mad!

These colorfully dyed dogs haven’t been taking styling tips from Lady Gaga, Katy Perry or Nicki Minaj – they are all contestants in extreme grooming competitions around the world, and RadarOnline.com has photos of their crazy canine coifs.

PHOTOS: Check Out The Colorful Canine Extreme Grooming Winners

From a winged-terrier dressed up as a red dragon, to a diamond-decorated harlequin, to a sturdy pooch pulling an Amish wagon and a pink poodle that makes a much more glamorous dinosaur than Barney, the four-legged models look as outrageous as any music star who walked the red carpet at the Grammys.

The competitors all put their best manicured paws forward to help their stylists vie for the prize of top groomer in nail-biting competitions in Britain and the U.S., and the carefully clipped canines have all been captured by photographer Ren Netherland from Florida, who travels thousands of miles to snap shows across the country in 20 different states.

Animal rights groups can relax, the rainbow of bright colors are all produced by normal and washable vegetable dyes, and what most pet owners aren’t aware of is that many of the dogs competing in the Westminster Dog Show are dyed too, they are just done in natural shades to match their fur.

Fun fact: Americans spent $3.6 billion on dog grooming last year, although most of it wasn’t as flamboyant as the ones flaunted on the fashionable dogwalk!

Taylor Armstrong Wants To Invite Russell's Children To Her Daughter's Birthday Party

Fri, 24 Feb 2012 18:00:17 +0000

By Jen Heger - Radar Legal Editor

Taylor Armstrong, wants to invite her late husband, Russell Armstrong's children to her daughter, Kennedy's upcoming birthday party because the Texas beauty wants her little girl to get to know her half siblings, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Russell committed suicide last year, and has two sons with two other women. Russell had one son, Aiden, 13, with ex-wife Barbara Fredrickson, and Griffin, 12, with ex-girlfriend Milette Fields.

Kennedy's 4th birthday party, which was featured on the show, cost a whopping $65k, and her 5th bday had a western theme and was held at a sprawling ranch. Kennedy's 6th birthday party will be a much more low key affair though.

PHOTOS: Taylor Armstrong Pictured out in Beverly Hills

“It was Russell that always pushed to have the over the top parties, he would always invite his business associates to try and impress them,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline.com. “Taylor wants to invite Kennedy's siblings so they can hopefully begin to have a closer relationship. Taylor feels that the party could be a good jumping off point for that to happen. Taylor isn't close with Russell's exes, but she recognizes this isn't about the adults, but what is best for their children. All three of the kids don't have a father anymore and they need each other now more than ever.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the majority of the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills will be back for season three, including Taylor.

PHOTOS: Reality TV's Top Tragedies

“Taylor, Lisa Vanderpump, Adrienne Maloof, Brandi Glanville and Kyle Richards will all be asked to return,” a show insider told RadarOnline.com. “Bravo would love Camille Grammer to return too, but she might want to move on to other projects which she has expressed interest in.”

Taylor's memoir, Hiding From Reality, which vividly describes the physical and emotional abuse that was inflicted on her by Russell, is now on the New York Times bestseller list.
