    AceShowbiz – The 2020 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards is set to be revamped as an isolation TV special after the original prizegiving was cancelled due to the coronavirus chaos.
    Chance The Rapper had been set to host the annual ceremony at The Forum in Inglewood, California on 22 March, but plans were pulled out of safety concerns as the COVID-19 outbreak worsened.
    Now network bosses have revealed they will stage the event as a special on 2 May, when former child star Victoria Justice will serve as host.
    “Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards 2020: Celebrate Together” will feature remote appearances by stars like Ariana Grande, Kristen Bell, Josh Gad, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, BTS (Bangtan Boys), Camila Cabello, Shawn Mendes, Lil Nas X, Millie Bobby Brown, Ellen DeGeneres, and Dove Cameron, as well as castmembers of “Avengers: Endgame”, which leads all nominees with 11 nods.

    During the show, viewers will be encouraged to support food charity No Kid Hungry, while Nickelodeon bosses will also pledge $1 million (£809,000) to support those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

    '90 Day Fiance': Rose Hopes for Proposal From Reluctant Ed

    TLC

    In a clip from upcoming April 26 episode, the couple is seen having a romantic dinner at their hotel with 23-year-old Rose hoping for the night to end with Ed proposing to her.
    Apr 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The upcoming episode of “90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days” season 4 is poised to show a pivotal moment in Ed and Rose’s relationship. In a clip from the April 26 episode, which is obtained by Entertainment Tonight, the couple is seen having a romantic dinner at their hotel with Rose hoping for the night to end with Ed proposing to her.
    “I feel happy. I feel love,” the 23-year-old says in confessional. “I want Ed to be a part of my life so, I wish that he proposes to me this night.”
    While Rose sounds so sure about their relationship, it is not the case with Ed. Speaking to TLC cameras, the 50-year-old shares, “I mean I think [I want to be with her], but I’m not 100 percent sure.” He admits that the situation with Rose’s sister, who asks him for money, is the one that is holding him back. It seems like Ed still has doubts regarding Rose’s real intention for dating him.
    “We’re still exploring that, at this point,” he previously said to Entertainment Tonight when asked if he still feels that Rose is dating him for his money. “At this point [in the show], I still have suspicions.”
    That isn’t the only problem the two have to face since Rose is rumored to be actually engaged to another woman now. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Ed addressed this swirling rumor about Rose’s supposed engagement to another woman. He admitted he has “no idea” if it’s true and hadn’t even heard of the rumor before, but reminded fans that they should take everything with a grain of salt.
    “You know, half the stuff I read online — not like half the stuff, more like 90 percent of the stuff I read online — is not true,” he explained. “It’s people grabbing information, and bits and bits of information, and they’re just creating fake news. They don’t know what’s going on. I know what’s going on in my heart.”
    While he didn’t give a straight answer regarding the status of their relationship, Ed said, “I’m happy, that’s all I can tell you.” He went on assuring, “I’m very, very happy.”

    The special will revolve around Poehler’s character, Leslie Knope, as she attempts to stay connected to her friends and colleagues during the coronavirus shut-in.
    “Like a lot of other people, we were looking for ways to help and felt that bringing these characters back for a night could raise some money,” executive producer Michael Schur tells Deadline. “I sent a hopeful email to the cast and they all got back to me within 45 minutes. Our old Parks and Rec team has put together one more 30-minute slice of (quarantined) Pawnee life and we hope everyone enjoys it. And donates!”

    'KUWTK': Khloe Kardashian Hints at Possible Reunion With Tristan Thompson While Planning Baby No. 2

    Instagram

    Meanwhile, Rob Kardashian makes a brief appearance in the new episode of ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ during his daughter Dream’s 3rd ‘cute’ birthday party.
    Apr 24, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The Thursday, April 23 episode of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” showed Khloe Kardashian further discussing her plan to freeze her eggs for baby No. 2 with ex and baby daddy Tristan Thompson. She admitted to Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner that she was thinking to have Tristan to be her sperm donor if she decided to make embryos.
    “After my doctor’s appointment, I talked to Tristan because if you can create embryos and do all the DNA testing, I do think that’s the smarter choice,” Khloe told her sisters, though she admitted that “it’s weird because, Tristan and I, we’re not together. I don’t know which way to go.”
    She underwent egg retrieval surgery, and shared that she would be just focusing on the eggs. “Right now, Tristan and I, we’re in this strange transition period where we’re figuring out boundaries. It’s just not the right time but, who knows, maybe that can change one day,” she added, seemingly hinting that she hoped for a reconciliation with the Cleveland Cavaliers player one day.
    Khloe later called Tristan, who was “open to doing that and down to doing that.” He assured Khloe, “Whatever is going to make you feel comfortable and also feel safest and everything like that, that’s what I’m on board with.” That made Khloe felt “blessed,” sharing, “I have no idea what my future holds for Tristan and I, but I really think I will feel a lot better knowing, OK, I have 5 embryos in a freezer if I want to use them I have them there.”
    Meanwhile, Rob Kardashian made a brief appearance in the new episode during his daughter Dream’s 3rd birthday party. “I am so proud of Rob and what a cute party he gave for Dream,” Kris Jenner gushed during the episode. “He wanted it to be so special. From the cake to the bubble guy, it was just really cute.”
    Fans were also happy to see Rob coming back on the show. “Good to see brother Rob back on the show. He’s been quarantined for years #KUWTK,” one fan tweeted.

    Marlo Hampton Thinks Wendy Williams Will Be 'Amazing' Addition to 'RHOA'

    Instagram

    However, it’s less likely for Wendy to appear on the Bravo show considering her fallout with NeNe recently with Marlo speaking of the situation, ‘I just know NeNe was really upset.’
    Apr 24, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Marlo Hampton is the latest “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast member who wants Wendy Williams to join the Bravo reality TV show. During an interview with HollywoodLife.com on Instagram Live on Sunday night, April 19, Marlo said that the TV host would take “RHOA” to the next level.
    She mentioned that it would be interesting to have Wendy recurring in upcoming season 13 of the show, considering her on-and-off friendship with co-star NeNe Leakes. “I need her and NeNe to make up anyways, so that would be amazing,” Marlo said.
    “Imagine our show with Wendy on it, oh my gosh,” she went on saying. While Wendy previously hinted that she’s never been interested in being a Housewife, Marlo believed that “Wendy wants to come and play with us. I think she really likes to play with the girls.”
    However, it’s less likely for Wendy to appear on “RHOA” considering her fallout with NeNe recently. When asked if they would make up this time, Marlo responded, “I don’t know. I just know NeNe was really upset.” She went on saying, “They took it to social media, so I don’t know. Let’s hope they get over it and get back to a good place.”

    The tension between NeNe and Wendy stemmed from when NeNe tried to get Wendy on FaceTime. “You know I don’t have face or time for FaceTime, period,” Williams ranted earlier this month on her talk show. “If I don’t do it for my own parents of the show, why would I be doing it for someone over there. I like NeNe, but she’s still an over-there person to me!”
    “Honestly, here’s where the ambush comes in,” Wendy added. Stressing that she wasn’t interested in being put on display that way again, Wendy continued, “I made it very clear, I am not a Housewife. Sorry, my career is a bit … different … than being a Housewife. I don’t need that kind of attention.”
    Later, NeNe broke her silence on the issue in her Instagram Live. “I love to do a Q&A with you guys, but if you’re going to ask me anything about Wendy, please refrain from doing so. … “I am not that kind of friend,” she said. “I’ve never been that kind of friend despite what you might think. Any questions I have, I would direct them to her. I wish she could have done the same. … I am not a snitch and I will never be one.”
    Despite that, NeNe shared that she wouldn’t “hash out friendship over social media. It won’t benefit me at all. And it won’t benefit any friendship that I have.” However, it seemed like the 52-year-old TV star demanded a public apology for the “public disrespect.”

    WENN/FayesVision

    Drew Dixon and her fellow accusers Sil Lai Abrams and Sheri Sher are featured in a new trailer for ‘On the Record’ which will be premiered on the streaming service on May 27.
    Apr 23, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Three of the women who have accused hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons of sexual harassment are opening up in a HBO Max documentary.
    The trailer for “On the Record” dropped on Wednesday, April 22, and featured Drew Dixon and her fellow accusers Sil Lai Abrams and Sheri Sher.
    Dixon is the star of the teaser, alleging Simmons raped her at his apartment in Manhattan, New York after offering her a job at his Def Jam record label.
    Dixon was one of the first women to expose the businessman’s alleged bad behaviour in a New York Times article in 2017.
    “I didn’t tell that many people about what happened with Russell,” she shares in the trailer for the new film, which premiered at Sundance in January. “He just grabbed me… and I’m saying no. I was reduced to nothing in that moment. Nothing about anything that makes me who I am mattered.”

    Simmons has denied all accusations of sexual misconduct and assault against him, stating: “I have never had a sexual encounter that was not consensual or lawful. Ever.”
    “On the Record” is set to premiere on new streaming service HBO Max on 27 May.

    Halle Berry Gives the Low-Down on Why She Was Forced to Shave Off Daughter's Hair

    WENN

    During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, the ‘John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum’ actress reveals what happened to Nahla’s hair after spending so much time in the pool during coronavirus quarantine.
    Apr 23, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Halle Berry has had to shave her daughter’s hair because she’s spending so much time in the family pool it has all matted together.
    The Oscar winner was shocked to discover her 12-year-old Nahla’s hair had “shrunken up into a tight ball that feels like matted fur”, and when a conditioning treatment didn’t work, mum had to reach for the clippers.
    “I couldn’t even get my finger in it (hair), and I’m pulling and she’s screaming,” Halle told The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon.
    “(I had to) shave it off… She is bald in the back (now).”

    The “Catwoman” star added, “She was not cool with that, but it was our only option. But now she gets it… I was like, ‘First of all, maybe you’ll let your mother help you. And second of all, you learned you gotta brush your hair. Every day, you gotta brush your hair.’ ”
