    AceShowbiz – Mick Jagger made a hilarious appearance in a tongue-in-cheek PSA clip during Monday’s (May 04) instalment of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”, as he advised fans How to Quarantine.
    The segment was filmed remotely for the U.S. late night show, which is currently being produced from the stars’ home due to the coronavirus pandemic.
    However, producers managed to get The Rolling Stones frontman onboard for the skit, which parodies a black-and-white BBC news report from the 1940s, and advises viewers how to occupy their time during lockdown.
    After being implored by the narrator of the clip to be productive during the lockdown, the “Start Me Up” star is seen tending to a series of chores, including brushing up on his cooking skills, herding sheep, pruning roses, and growing vegetables.
    The sketch was filmed in support of non-profit Save the Children, helping provide for children in need during the Covid-19 crisis.

    Cynthia Bailey Denies Getting Fired From 'RHOA': 'That Is Completely False'

    Bravo TV

    Prior to this, it was said that the Bravo honchos decided to fire Cynthia and fellow ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ star Eva Marcille because their ‘storylines were the weakest.’
    May 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Cynthia Bailey is not going anywhere. “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star sets the record straight after it was rumored that she was axed from the popular Bravo reality show.
    She reveals to The Shade Room that she has no plan to leave the franchise. “I have no plans to leave ‘RHOA’ at this time. Every year there are rumors saying that I am getting fired, or not returning,” she explains. “I’ve been a peach holder consistently for 10 years now. I love my cast, and my Bravo family.”
    The TV star also hints that she most likely will be appearing in the upcoming season 13, saying, “I am looking forward to next season.”
    Addressing the reports that she is being offered a “reduced role” by the CEO of the production company, Cynthia insists “that is completely false.” She continues, “We just recently filmed the reunion, and have not started contract negotiations yet.”

    Prior to this, it was said that the Bravo honchos decided to fire Cynthia and fellow “RHOA” star Eva Marcille. “Cynthia and Eva’s storylines were the weakest. We knew there was going to be a change going forward, bring in new Housewives and get rid of [some] old ones,” an executive claimed. The insider noted that “it’s important to constantly refresh the cast with new blood.”
    Additionally, the source debunked rumors about NeNe Leakes leaving the show. “No Nene is not getting fired. She’s the best part of the show,” said the informant.
    When asked about when the show would officially fire Eva and Cynthia, the source explained, “They’ll be notified the final decision after the reunion show airs, until then, they have no idea that they’re [likely] out of a job.” Despite that, the executive hinted at the “slight” possibility that the show would keep one or both of them on the show, especially if the Coronavirus quarantine continues.

    Tyra Banks Slammed After Old 'ANTM' Clip of Her Telling Off a Model Over Gap Tooth Resurfaces

    Instagram

    In the video, Tyra advises contestant Danielle Evans to close the gap in her front teeth, saying, ‘Do you really think you can a have a covergirl contract with a gap in your mouth?’
    May 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tyra Banks has some explaining to do. The former “America’s Next Top Model” host and judge is under fire after an old clip from season six of the reality competition show resurfaces online, featuring her alleged problematic behavior.
    The clip was brought to attention by Twitter user @OladapoAisha, who posted it on her account on Tuesday, May 5. In the video, Tyra advised contestant Danielle Evans to close the gap in her front teeth.
    “So, Danielle, you went to the dentist, but you refused to have your gap closed. Do you really think you can a have a covergirl contract with a gap in your mouth?” Tyra said, to which Danielle optimistically responded, “Yes. Why not?”
    While pointing at her own teeth, Tyra explained, “This is all people see. It’s easy, breezy, beautiful covergirl. It’s not marketable.” Danielle then said, “Just a little bit is okay, but I don’t wanna completely close it.”
    Judge and runway coach J. Alexander chimed in, “Well, I guess she just left the gap wide open for another girl, baby.” Despite that, Danielle ended up winning the season.

    “Why was this allowed to air wtf Tyra banks is going to straight hell,” Oladapo captioned the footage, which quickly set the tongues wagging. Some people on the blue bird app noted that some other professional models also have gap tooth. ” ‘It’s not marketable.’ Meanwhile Georgia May Jagger has a big a** gap tooth and is one the main faces for Rimmel Woozy face,” one person stated.
    “@tyrabanks is really trash. It’s like she started this show to intentionally treat these young woman in such a horrible way… the same way she thought [Naomi Campbell] treated her. She gave herself the authority to treat these women like trash and had judges who backed her up. Smh,” added another fan.
    Meanwhile, a user alleged, “In another season Tyra actually makes a girl’s tooth gap LARGER. Tyra is insane.” Someone else recalled when Tyra “really force a girl to go nude on camera for an AUDITION. And had Janiece of all people (who accused [Bill] Cosby for sexual assault )TO BACK HER UP AS A JUDGEFlushed faceFlushed faceFlushed faceTHE IRONY OF IT ALL.”
    Tyra has yet to respond to the criticism.

    BET

    In related news, Eva allegedly ‘felt disrespected’ during a heated fight at ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ season 12 reunion, which will air on Sunday, May 10.
    May 5, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” reportedly is making a huge casting change for its new season. A new report suggests that the Bravo honchos decide to fire not only one, but two cast members, Eva Marcille and Cynthia Bailey.
    “Cynthia and Eva’s storylines were the weakest. We knew there was going to be a change going forward, bring in new Housewives and get rid of [some] old ones,” an executive reveals to MTO News. The insider notes that “it’s important to constantly refresh the cast with new blood.”
    Additionally, the source debunks rumors about NeNe Leakes leaving the show. “No Nene is not getting fired. She’s the best part of the show,” claims the source.
    When asked about when the show will officially fire Eva and Cynthia, the source explains, “They’ll be notified the final decision after the reunion show airs, until then, they have no idea that they’re [likely] out of a job.”
    Despite that, the executive hints at the “slight” possibility that the show will keep one or both of them on the show, especially if the Coronavirus quarantine continues. But for now, it is assumed that season 12 is the last season for both Eva and Cynthia.
    In related news, Eva allegedly “felt disrespected” during a heated fight at ‘RHOA” reunion, which will air on Sunday, May 10. “Eva Marcille came in hard at the reunion, which surprised a lot of people,” a source told HollywoodLife.com. “There were rumors that she may lose her peach, but after the reunion, that would be surprising.”
    “Eva was probably the most loud and vocal about her feelings out of anyone, which really caught a lot of people off guard, including the cast,” the source went on to say. “Nobody thought she’d play that hard, but she definitely came to play! She’ll be at the center of many heated discussions. Some of the things the ladies were saying, particularly NeNe [Leakes], really bothered Eva and she was so happy that she finally got the chance to address people face-to-face. She felt disrespected.”

    May 5, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Kelly Rowland and Boy George will reportedly be temporarily replaced on “The Voice Australia” during the COVID-19 crisis.
    The new season of the popular TV singing contest is set to premiere on 24 May and, according to NW magazine, the program’s two international coaches will be temporarily replaced by local stars due to travel restrictions.
    The pair, who have appeared on the show since 2017, will apparently be replaced as judges temporarily by Jessica Mauboy and Conrad Sewell – although the former Destiny’s Child star and Culture Club frontman have apparently been remotely checking in on contestants from their respective homes.

    “(They) will move into a mentor role from the U.S. and U.K. on Zoom,” a source explained, suggesting they’ll use the video conference app to engage with participants.

    Singers Delta Goodrem and Guy Sebastian will both return as coaches, while the show will welcome two new hosts – Darren McMullen and Renee Bargh – who will take over from Sonia Kruger as she prepares to front the forthcoming revamped season of “Big Brother” on the local Channel Seven.
