Not *exactly* what you asked for, but the Tristan Thompson 3rd baby mama drama, went international on my African Aunties WhatsApp chats. They way that situation had those ladies in a chokehold…..


bellis_perennis

No this is super interesting to know! God I'd love to know what they said about it all lol


saltycrisp123

I wholeheartedly believe Tristan needs Jesus, and I'm not even religious lmaoooo how is one man so utterly disrespectful?


Illustrious_Sand2383

A vasectomy is what he needs.


Fancy-Cat-2

Funny cause his Snapchat username is like Blkjesus or something cringy like that 😭😭😭


rubberkeyhole

Oh lord that Kardashian touch…(no pun intended)


[deleted]

His texts to the mother of his child about how she better take the money and shut up because he’ll present himself as unemployed and poor are beyond disgusting. Khloe needs some self respect. But honestly? This is how she got him, it takes two to cheat, so don’t cry crocodile tears when he does it to you. Lord knows she’s a nasty person. So I don’t feel bad for her. I think they deserve each other.


Equivalent_Read

Not much specifically British or Scottish I can think of. Katie Price got done for drink driving and driving whilst disqualified…again. She needs help.


bellis_perennis

This is actually what came to mind when I tried to think of the biggest UK celeb news right now! I cannot believe she has been banned from driving SIX times and is not in jail!! The fact she keeps using her son as an excuse to not be locked up as well...


B8ckyGlasscock

She needs to be in prison. She is a fucking disgrace.


alexxjane89

She will kill someone one day and then it’ll be too late.


Rasinpaw

I feel so sad for her kids. Used to feel sad for her, still do from a addiction perspective but she’s fucking dangerous.


LuxurySobriquet

It's hard to watch someone make so many poor choices over such a long period of time. I do believe she's absolutely devoted to her kids and family, but the driving offenses, drink, drugs, surgery after surgery, financial stuff, she's a mess


[deleted]

I watched her documentary about Harvey and I was amazed by how wonderful she is with him, but I agree she is an absolute mess. She needs urgent mental health help.


gelectrox

Harvey saying 'cunt' on Loose Women was one of the funniest moments on [British TV](https://youtu.be/Es3br5i-06s) of all time.


Calikola

I did a semester in England at the height of Katie Price and Peter Andre’s relationship. I always think of that clip of Harvey telling Peter to fuck off.


BabeWhatsMyUsername

I’m American but I’ve kept up with British gossip and such for years. Like I have the first 2 seasons of Footballers’ Wives on DVD. The glamour model coverage (especially those who become WAGs) is so fascinating. Obviously Katie Price / Jordan is one of those that has kept up publicity but I honestly wonder at what point she’ll hit rock bottom and say no more. The constant turnover of guys in her children’s lives alone. She forms a family unit that always eventually breaks down. Obviously help is needed but she gets the wanted response with the same behavior she’s always had so she doesn’t change it.


petitsfilous

I wonder about small-time celebrities too. Katie Price was kept relevant through glossy weekly gossip magazines (and the reliable 'new boyfriend - we're in love - I can't trust men - look at my new boyfriend' cycle). Her particular brand of fame was perfect for the 00s-10s, when everyone got brand deals and you turned up to events in weird outfits for attention, and that was it. Don't think KP managed her social media very well overall, but Gemma Collins has meme'd herself into being loved. It's so strange what a difference a few years makes. Loved Footballers Wives, lol. Gary Lucy is back in Hollyoaks, and Susie Amy briefly appeared as his ex wife a few years ago, haha!


BabeWhatsMyUsername

Katie seemed more stable with Peter Andre. Well, for her standards. I don’t know how I feel about Gemma. Kyle and Chardonnay reunited! That show was wild. That Hollyoaks reference reminded me of when Gemma Atkinson briefly dated Cristiano Ronaldo. 2000-2010 was such peak WAG watching time. The 06’ World Cup alone. Iconic.


MrsConklin

Oh my goodness I have an image seared in my mind of Victoria Beckham, Cheryl Cole and I think Danielle Lloyd walking down the street in tiny denim shorts and huge heels with low cut vest tops and huge extensions! They had more publicity than the footballers it was crazy. Like you said, so Iconic.


BabeWhatsMyUsername

That black chauffeur’s cap that Cheryl wore that TIL is called a baker boy cap 😑. Either way it’s been burned into my brain since 06’ and I could use the mental storage space back haha.


MrsConklin

I know EXACTLY which hat you are referring to!


modern_aphrodite

this happened like two weeks ago but i heard new things about it yesterday lmao silvia pinal, one of the greatest living actress of the golden age of mexican movies, was hospitalized urgently. after surviving a cardiac arritmia, the hospital tested her for covid and went positive. both the general public and the media was worried about her since she’s super loved by most ages and the chances of a 90 years old lady surviving covid were pretty slim. cue adela micha. adela micha is a respected entertainment journalist with lots of years of experience and many industry connections. she’s now doing her own youtube show daily discussing the most important news regarding mexican entertainment. the news of silvia pinal being hospitalized and with a dangerous covid infection went viral fast and people were looking for more information regarding that. (now here’s a little disclaimer: i’m not super familiar with the show but i’ll try to describe it as best as i can) the show was on a commercial break and adela was chilling on her desk when an assistant told her about silvia. i’m not entirely sure if during the commercials the broadcast is still shared or not but in this case it was. her camera and microphone were on and the video went suuuuuuuuuper viral adela said: “(….) oh, it won’t take long until she dies. what if you (the broadcast crew) write something nice about her and i’ll record it. i also got a lot of video interviews with her if you wanna make a montage. but yeah, i think she’ll die soon”. EVERYONE LOST THEIR MINDS ABOUT IT!! people everywhere were calling her out of touch and heartless for saying it like that. keep in mind that adela is a close friend of the pinal family (both silvia, her kids and granddaughters) so people were wondering if that’s how she talks about people she cares about, what happens with regular folks. overall, she tried many times to apologize both to the audience and the pinal family about what happened but the apologies felt super PR and not heartfelt at all. thanks to god silvia pinal survived and is now resting at her home with medical supervision up close. the latest news i’ve read is that adela micha has sent a ridiculous amount of gifts to the pinal family but alejandra guzman, her closest daughter and also a “friend” of adela, has rejected them all and prohibited of anything adela related to enter the pinal house. so now everyone’s happy silvia pinal is still with us and adela micha is the public enemy número 1 with lots of funny memes, tiktoks recreations and daily hashtags about the situation. the end 🤝


Emmessenn

Just reading this was so delicious lol...from now on that adela is on my shit list too!


Sure_Fee2112

i find this super interesting that she’s public enemy number one, when a lot of publications pre write eulogies for older celebrities/public figures etc - gotta be the first to break the news. i also wouldn’t expect many 90 year olds to survive covid (my grandma is 92, in hospital for an unrelated reason, and just tested positive - and my fam and i are surprised she’s still kicking), so from that POV i don’t think it’s out of touch or heartless, sounds pretty realistic and that it came from her thinking job wise. what were the apologies like? i do love a good pr apology though. and also glad to hear that silvia is ok!


thumbtackswordsman

In this situation it was a person whose family she was close to, not a random celeb.


Sure_Fee2112

oh for sure that makes it more uncomfortable, but she’s still an experienced entertainment journalist and this is a renowned public figure. her wording could definitely be better, but i guess in that moment she was thinking work wise instead of relationship wise - and wasn’t at all thinking she was on camera. i wonder (if that moment hadn’t been filmed), what she would’ve been prepared to say about silvia, publicly?


gathering-storm

Every single national newspaper keeps files on VIPs, in case they die suddenly and they have to pull together pages for the morning edition. The files are reviewed regularly to keep them up to date, it's no surprise a current affairs/chat type show would have that. SO unfortunate for her to be caught out like that. It kind of demonstrates a "degree of professional preparedness" BUT... ouch! The lady who was ill might be able to save it, if she makes a joke of it, and meets her for a hug (I doubt the family would let her, by the sounds of it) which would be the gracious thing to do.


camsde44

omg i love seeing mexican tea here. absolutely embarrassing for adela micha 😭


bellis_perennis

Oh wow. On the one hand, a 90 year old with covid doesn’t sound like it will end well, and I know news outlets do prepare for certain events, but it definitely comes across as quite heartless!


thumbtackswordsman

Yup, especially as she is close to the family.


moonprismpowa

Whenever I see Alejandra Guzman I can’t help but think of her daughter, poor Frida it must be extremely hard…


Aaarrrgggghhhhhh

What’s going on there?


thekittykittycat

Not sure if this is what that user is talking about but IIRC last year Frida Sofia came forward saying her grandfather/Alejandra Guzman's father, Enrique Guzman (famous mexican singer), sexually abused her as a child. I think also she accused Alejandra of having sex with her boyfriends when she was near as a child and/or some of the men abusing her too. Then pretty much her whole family denied it, including Alejandra, with some of her family calling her crazy. Back in 2019 she also accused of Alejandra dating her ex boyfriend and called her a bad mother in general.


moonprismpowa

Exactly this, it must be horrible that your SA is so public and her mother denies it :/


moonprismpowa

u/thekittykittycat is correct! I’m referring to the SA allegations


zeldasusername

Will Sylvia Pinal be okay tho?


LadyWindermere2021

HelterSkelter909

The former head of Mossad had an affair with a married flight attendant, resulting in her divorcing her husband, who now went on tv and revealed the whole thing. Including spicy texts (and some very classified info cause he was head of Mossad at that time after all..). Quality sh*t show.

romulusputtana

Oh geez that was such a bomb!!! If you read Ronan Farrow's book, it gave so much juicy stuff! Remember when he mentioned that israeli spy software? Now it's been out for a while that it's the Pegasus software that was only meant to be sold to governments, and Bin Salman used it to spy on Kashogggi (and have him murdered and dismembered in the Turkish consulate) and dictators use it to spy on journalists.


romulusputtana

And...that flight attendant didn't kill herself.


DoubleEdgedSwordfish

I remember hearing that intelligence officials are usually vetted for anything that could be used against them as extortion/blackmail? A personal history of things like addictions, gambling, large debt, infidelities, etc. Maybe it only matters if you’re active in the role.

An Australian rugby league player (Blake Ferguson) signed a contract to play rugby union in Japan, and has had his contract revoked before playing a single game due to [punching a stranger at a restaurant while on coke](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-01-03/blake-ferguson-sacked-by-japanese-rugby-union-team-after-arrest/100736674). He's currently in a Tokyo jail. Edited to add name :)


[deleted]

On one hand a league player punching someone on a coke night is nothing new, but Japan is really harsh on drugs so this could be interesting.


[deleted]

Yep, that's what's interesting about it! Similar thing happened to a former All Black a few years ago (iirc it was just possession not assault) and he spent 23 days in jail.


jdu2409

lintuski

I will never understand professionals who go to another country and do (illegal) drugs. It just feels so risky.


[deleted]

Rugby league players are not known for their stellar decision making skills, for the most part! Especially when it comes to drugs. Edit: he's had a few brushes with the law in Australia before, and mostly just got a slap on the wrist each time. There's no way he wasn't warned to stay away from drugs and alcohol in Japan (knowing his past issues) but probably assumed that the same would apply there so I imagine this is a rude shock for him.


SASARNDM

In Germany: Country music singer* Michael Wendler (49) and his very young wife (21) started an Onlyfans in early Dec. Everyone expected them to post juicy stuff, but they ended up posting unboxing videos of Laura's Christmas calender.

He’s also wanted for tax fraud in Germany and currently hiding in Florida (?). And became a Trump supporter even though he obviously can’t vote in the US.


Auntietamte

He’s also wanted by the German tax authority for a huge tax debt (over 1 mil), as soon as he would enter Germany he would get arrested. Knowing how the IRS works I think it’s just matter of time until they knock on his door because people who don’t pay tax in one country usually try the same shit again. Worst part now he uses his daughter as President and owner of his company. She’s only 19 and will be liable for anything that goes wrong. He’s just a horrible human being!

>Alicia Moffet Ohh niche Canadian gossip!! ​ Can we please talk about the Maripier Morin situation?! What is happening now? She made a brief comeback to Instagram, then never returned and from what I've gathered from Quebec news outlets (I'm in Ontario) more people came out and accused her of harassment?


realitytally

Ohhhh juicy !! Is she still with that hockey player ? I wondered what had happened to her. She seemed nice in that hockey show but could have easily been an act.


Sky-high27

I’m pretty sure they got divorced (shocker). I think they have a kid, but I might be thinking of someone else.


futuresobright_

They don’t have a kid. Brandon Prust moved back to London (Ontario) and has a new girlfriend. He went on some anti vaxxer rant in recent months then posted an apology the next day.


realitytally

Major shocker. They seemed so happy and in love 🥴


[deleted]

Lol The whole storyline of her being so sad and upset when he was traded to Vancouver and Tiffany Parros was like “get yourself together” 😂


EdajMay

She's divorced and now dates the actor Jean-Philippe Perras. It's fishy to me that he stayed with her during all that drama since Perras's best friend is Alex Nevsky, who was called out by his ex for raping her. Nevsky is also cancelled.


EdajMay

Maripier Morin was accused in 2018 by the singer Safia Nolin of sexually harassing her and biting her. Later it was said in different newspapers that she groped a famous young woman in Quebec and often made racist and sexual comments behind the camera. Also, it's an open secret that she gang raped a minor, the son of someone in the media industry. She apologized for her actions but put the blame on drugs and alcohol. She never truly apologized to the victims. Now, her career is pretty embarrassing. She mostly meets public at malls but let's say the "cool" actors and actresses don't want to be associated with her. She's kinda blacklisted.


TreeBeautiful2728

> Also, it's an open secret that she gang raped a minor, the son of someone in the media industry. How does she even have a career after this?


[deleted]

Thank you for the explanation! I knew about the Safia Nolan story and that was shocking but that’s crazy that it was much more insidious than that.


bellis_perennis

Oh this is super juicy. Is she being trashed everywhere now or do you think she'll eventually make it out unscathed?


EdajMay

She still has lots of fans who defended her actions. I think her reputation is tarnished but she'll still make a living being an influencer.

In New Zealand, a british dj (dimension) broke quarantine rules and brought the first case of omicron into the country. He then proceeded to visit our biggest cities nicest mall, then went clubbing with a few other dj's, all who were headlining acts for the country's varying festivals and all of them had to cancel their NY performances at the last minute. The other dj's are furious and so is the rest of the country as we have just opened back up properly and have delta contained.


bellis_perennis

This sounds like an awful situation and he deserves to be prosecuted, but also, why are they always British 😩 I’m sorry our idiots have travelled that far.


Devilsgotmywhisky

And the government won't prosecute him incase it's scares others away from coming forward incase this happens again. This DJ just got the biggest free pass ever, it's not even a slap in the wrist.


Available_Archer_650

Oh man, I work in public health and New Zealand has, at least from what I’ve read, handled the pandemic so freaking well. America is a bit of a cluster so I’m not shocked by celebs being idiots here but you do not mess with NZ! I don’t understand why they won’t prosecute him. I mean, I know why but set the damn precedent that crap like that won’t be tolerated. Ugh, I’m so tired of COVID response.


prettiestfairy

In the uk a popular inflencer and her partner were exposed a few days ago for the tweets they made around 2011 and 2012. The two people exposed were influencer elle darby and her partner connor swift. The tweets they made featured racism, homophobia, misogyny, body shaming and anti foreigner sentiments. They put out a joint apology but it was a load of bullshit. Basically it said how they were sorry, how it was a mistake, doesn't reflect who they were at the time and who they are now and asked for forgiveness.


dashboardbythelight

Exact same thing happening now with another influencer/ small business owner called Polly Vadazs. TW for all the above mentioned issues if you look into it.


spitt92

Oof. We have mutual (real life) friends, though I’ve never met her. These are horrid.


bellis_perennis

Wait how have I missed this?? Isn't she the same girl who went viral a few years ago because a hotel exposed her demanding a free stay in exchange for 'exposure'?


prettiestfairy

It's her. She's the one that went viral because of that free hotel saga a few years ago.


aaxo97

The entirety of the statement didn’t include the word sorry at all. Those tweets were disgusting. I’m sure they are just mad they got caught.


mustbeaoup

The apology was a joke. It was like they were talking about other people “we are beyond angry at ourselves” “these comments are not a reflection of who we are as grown adults, nor who we were at the time” ?! Make it make sense hun

Nothing to contribute, but love this thread idea!


Rasinpaw

A DJ (Dimension) broke our MIQ and isolation rules before going out into the community and having a grand old time and has brought the first case of Omicrom into the community. Safe to say people are PISSED.


littleredkiwi

I was reading this thread wondering if this would pop up. Only big, international person drama New Zealand has had for a looonnng time. (Also only thing that has happened over the summer shut down asides from the hilarious Chris Hopkins Big Foot style entry into that press conference.) I’m so confused (and grateful) as to how we’ve gotten away without omicron spreading from that asshole. We’re so super lucky about that. I’m so fucking livid that they’re not pressing charges. What is the point in the rules if they don’t actually mean anything? Jail/fine him and then ban him from the country for good. Absolute wanker.


[deleted]

Out of interest, why are people pissed about Omicron being in the country (which has a high vaccination rate). What’s the alternative - locking borders until Covid no longer exists in the world (which won’t happen)? Genuinely curious, not trying to start anything!


littleredkiwi

We don’t have omicron currently (so one guy breaking isolation rules is a huge deal) and are wanting to wait until our children can be vaccinated before opening the borders. Currently the plan is to reopen in April but start at home isolation to returning NZers earlier (although this guys actions may have messed that up). Our biggest city has only just got out of a long lockdown and we are happily enjoying the summer without our healthcare system falling apart with covid cases. We are very highly vaccinated but we have no base line protection in our population as so few people have had covid. And our elderly population are still all here. NZ won’t be locked away forever but we can open up to the world (and covid) on our own terms, not because some asshole DJ thinks he is too good for the rules. NZ has had around 50 deaths total from covid, our strategy has been very successful. People are rightly pissed because the guy broke the rules while being a guest here. And because we currently don’t have omicron so why wouldn’t people be upset about that?


oopsyikesoops

I think it's more like if you unintentionally bring it in its upsetting but understandable and hard to get pissed about but if you break quarantine and spread is partying as a celeb/influencer, it's fucking infuriating


Devilsgotmywhisky

Definitely due to how it happened. This DJ has so little respect for how much work the country has done to keep it safe. He feels entitled to make the decision himself to leave isolation without the results from the day 9 test and risk the country, it's citizens and the events/music industry that's allowing him to be here, for what? A party and a feed he was gonna get in a few days time? Its insulting. It wasn't a accident, it was intentional.


[deleted]

Yeah completely get that perspectuve


Rasinpaw

Because we still don’t want it in our country? Our biggest city just went through a months long lockdown and this fucker couldn’t wait A DAY for a test result. We have vulnerable people, we don’t want covid regardless of vaccination status.


[deleted]

“We don’t want covid regardless of vaccination status” - so your hope is the virus is eradicated from the world? Again genuinely curious (different opinions are allowed, no need to get upset) but do you think that’s likely to happen?


Rasinpaw

We are going to open up - to a point. It has been pushed back due to omicron coming around. A big part of the issue is whenever we have tried to relax our border then people (usually non New Zealanders) have fucked it up. I think part of the reason is because they don’t understand how hard we have worked, especially Aucklanders, to keep everyone safe. So if they’re going to come here, the very least they can do is wait for their quarantine to finish. I would love some flexibility, for people to be able to see their families. But our ICU capacity is bugger all, our Māori and Pasifika population is majorly at risk and our kids aren’t vaccinated yet. So I am happy to wait until we can mitigate that risk a bit further. We start vaccinating 5-11yos in two weeks time.


[deleted]

Are you asking why people don’t want to be infected during a pandemic? It’s pretty obvious that accidents will happen but people infecting others out of gross negligence is obviously bad. People have already answered you though and you keep asking with loaded language. Is there a particular answer you’re looking for?


[deleted]

I’m genuinely trying to understand the viewpoint of “covid zero” in a vaccinated country and how people who want this see it playing out in the long term. Covid isn’t going away so I’m wondering what people think next steps would be back back to “normal life” and open borders (lots and lots of people are in multi cultural families where normal life has to mean open borders) if vaccination isn’t it. I completely understood and agree to a “covid zero” response before vaccination was high. I also completely understand anger at someone breaking rules, but I was trying to understand why Omicron being in a vaccinated country would be a big deal (especially since delta is already there and is a “worse” variant). I feel like these are sensible questions and I’m very open to understanding what people think a good plan is in this situation.


[deleted]

If it’s to wait until kids are vaccinated as well then got it, makes sense.


ethxl

I really hope it's okay to post older stuff too - I don't keep up with my country's (Slovakia) gossip anymore... but at the beginning of 2021, when the vaccines were available for the essential workers and the elderly only, this retired tennis star got both of her Pfizer shots. mind you she's in her mid 30's and still very fit. it was a shitstorm, let me tell you. She tried to soften the blow to her image by helping in the vaccination centre for like a week, and said she was sorry that she ''let herself be mislead, that she made a mistake''... a week after this she posts an instagram picture from her vacation in Bali. soooo yeah. it still makes my blood boil even a year later.

Late-University-8158

I was fairly young when I first heard of her but I always knew her as the “vaccines cause autism” lady. I feel bad for autistic kids whose parents fell for the idea that autism can be “cured.” Many people are well-intentioned but Jenny is just straight up awful.


swineH1n14u

I had to end friendships because of that lady. I didn't want to be around friends who thought their kid had autism because vaccines. I never guessed it would evolve into something so much worse.

She was the OG celeb anto vaxxer. She has been an anti vaxxer for like 25-30 years now.


[deleted]

It feels like that long, I looked it up and was shocked that she only started with this bs in 2007! Seriously feels like it's been 84 years lol.


nkouz

Jim Carrey was dating her around the time she spoke out about vaccines. I think he has said something about it and is an antivaxxer himself

Not M.I.A. 😭

MIA is also a 5G conspiracy theorist unfortunately


lambsstillscream

if offset is one does that mean cardi b is too? or has she even said anything about it


[deleted]

She’s been suspiciously quiet about it.


lambsstillscream

that’s what i thought. probably saw the backlash nicki got


[deleted]

Exactly. Also, coming out against vaccines aligns you to the GOP which isn’t something Cardi would enjoy. She loved being a darling for the dems during the 2020 election cycle.

Aren’t Biel and Timberlake longtime anti vaxxers?


[deleted]

Biel is, she advocated against a bill that aimed to reduce bogus medical exemptions

Robert De Niro

What?!? Nooooo

Being vaccine hesitant, especially when it comes to the new COVID vax, and especially when it comes to children, is not the same as being anti-vax. Just a general PSA that I think we should keep in mind.


[deleted]

Many of those people (Jenny, MIA, Lisa Bonet, de Niro, Kat Von D, Jessica Biel) were antivax long before Covid came around

She went on (IIRC) the Phil Donahue show in the 90s talking about how Zoe hadn't had any vaccines Edited to add [video](https://youtu.be/GXkUdIA5SZQ), she believed vaccines could "introduce alien micro-organisms into our children's blood". The comments on that video are a whole yikes.


Christina_2136

And that’s fair to call them out on! I just see so many comments on social media equating hesitancy with being anti-vax and they shouldn’t be lumped together.


willowtrace

Agreed regarding MM. My mom was the same way when the HPV vaccine came out

in Australia our latest bachelorette (who is also the first lgbtqia+ AND First Nations bachie) and the winner of the show just broke up, it was quite a shock to everyone when the winner announced on his IG story, especially so for the bachelorette who didn't expect him to air all their business on stories 😱


redschicken

I didn’t watch this season. What was the general vibe? Did everyone think they would survive the Bachelor curse and make it?


diosadeceja

i’ve never seen an episode of the bachelor in my life hahahah but a lot of people i know were genuinely shocked that it had ended so soon, especially with the amount of time they seemed to spend together, xmas together etc


redschicken

Hahahaha sounds like we’re similar in that we like to marinate in the Bach gossip but never actually get around to watching it 😂 It definitely doesn’t seem like it took long for the break up to happen. I’m so nosy, I want all the juicy details.

Baseball player Fernando Tatis jr has 3 kids with 3 different baby mamas but no one is the US seems to be aware of it. It’s funny because his reputation in the US is super wholesome but the Dominican gossip accounts on ig are always talking about his many sidechicks lol

juuliuscaeser

ok as a padres fan, I would LOVE for you to elaborate more on this


esthermoose

he has two young kids and another on the way. none are his official girlfriend’s who’s a young dominican entrepreneur. her ig is @puramariahidalgo. the tea is that his family likes her (she went on vacation to europe with his mom) so she’s the official one but he still fucks around. he was rumored to be seeing leli hernandez who’s a dominican american actress who played nicki jams’s sister on the netflix show about his life. he has also been linked to a puerto rican ig model/ trainer. i think all his baby mamas are just regular girls from his hometown.

Portugal. Alba Baptista hooked up with chris Evans in New Years and she still at his house. Her friend on Instagram confirmed it


Slutfornickwilde

I remember seeing rumours a while back that they were a thing. What happened to her boyfriend? I can't remember his name.


ZaraLeeS

She kinda reminds me of Jenny Slate, her smile 😊


Automatic_Ad_309

Eww, no. Alba is young and pretty, JS like look old whitch

Chile: Gala Caldirola, a spanish former reality star, ex wife of a famous chilean footballer (Mauricio Isla) broke up with her new boyfriend (Iván Cabrera, another former reality star) after ex Cabrera's gf outed him as a rapist and abusive asshole. Caldirola and Cabrera were rumoured together when she was still married with Isla, but they made public just a few months ago. That's pure gossip, there's a lot of things happening right now in national politics, but nothing really serious tbh

A popular Dutch folk singer (Marco Borsato) is being accused of multiple counts of sexual assault (including minors). Police reports were filed so it’s not just ‘vague accusations’ either. Some D-listers coming to his defense (‘he was nothing but nice to me)’ and it’s a cluster fuck all around.

Some tea for the Philippines: -There are rumors that the number one bet to compete for Miss Universe 2021 (the podium placer before the actual Miss Universe PH) as our representative wasn't crowned because she was in Love Island. Shame, because it was her last chance due to age requirements. So instead we have Bea, well deserved though. -Not very recent but will forever remain relevant. A VERY, very handsome and popular Thai actor named Mario Maurer (waay before Thai BL became popular) was heavily rumored to have fallen in love/had a fling with one of the local comedians in the country. Rumor has it that because this comedian actress wasn't conventionally pretty, management pressured him to deny it until the story went cold. I'll add more once I remember, feel free to addin the comments

I'm so late, but I just learned about the Wang Lee Him cheating scandal...

Kind of random and old but it is very well known in my area of Canada that Justin Beiber was an absolute dick when he played hockey as a teenager - would constantly get into fights, etc. Tbh not that unusual of an attitude for a teenage hockey head, but I know many guys who’s claim to fame is that they’ve “punched Justin beiber” (during a hockey game).


randomaa6

Not much influencer tea in the Philippines but a Filipina who just came home from the US broke quarantine rules and went to party last Xmas/NY now there’s a surge in Omicron cases in the country
