      In response to the criticisms against him, the ‘America’s Got Talent’ host suggests it’s not his job to ‘take care’ of other women, not even his mother and daughters.
      Jan 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Terry Crews finally addressed criticisms on why he didn’t defend former “America’s Got Talent” judge Gabrielle Union despite her support for him when he opened up on his sexual assault ordeal in the past. The “AGT” host said it’s true he would never speak up for her and explained why.
      “There is only one woman one earth I have to please. Her name is Rebecca,” he wrote on Twitter, referring to his wife. He even refused to defend his mother, daughters, or sisters. “I will let their husbands/ boyfriends/ partners take care of them,” he said. “Rebecca gives me WINGS.”
      He was flooded with comments on social media due to his remarks. Even T.I. couldn’t resist leaving a comment on an Instagram post by The Shade Room. While he didn’t say any word, he left an emoji with zipped-up lips.

      Many criticized Crews and one of them wrote, “Man… this is a terrible thing to think, let alone say. You may not believe you have to please them… but they deserve the same humane treatment you requested and required when it was your turn to be the person in need of support. Damn, man… it really isn’t that hard.”
      Another commented, “I don’t care whether they have a man or not, better believe I will protect my family tirelessly. Who says something like that??”

      Tamra Judge Exits 'RHOC' Due to Reduced Salary and 'Humiliating' Demotion

      by

      Bravo TV

      Prior to his, co-star Vicky Gulvalson shared that she left the Bravo show on Friday, January 24, writing on Instagram, ‘I will always be the OG of the OC, but it’s time to say goodbye to ‘The Real Housewives of Orange County’.’
      Jan 27, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Upcoming season 15 of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” will lose another one of its cast members. According to a new report, Tamra Judge is walking away from the Bravo reality series, and her decision was prompted by the salary pittance that’s offered to her.
      “Bravo bosses wanted Tamra to be bridge from the old cast to the new in season 15 and she refused,” a source spilled to Radar Online. “Tamra got her pick up contract letter last, after the other ladies, and it had major conditions in it.”
      The source added that Tamra “was even more than demoted to a friend role” which meant that “she’d have very little camera time. And it meant she would earn next to nothing in reality TV terms.”
      “She would go from $900,000 a season to $20,000 an episode for just three show appearances, which would add up to $60,000 total. It was humiliating,” so the insider went on sharing. “So Tamra walked away.”
      Tamra announced her departure on Saturday, January 25. Speaking to PEOPLE, Tamra, who had been on the show for 12 seasons, said, “It’s been a wild ride, and after all these years, I’m looking forward to life away from the cameras. I was offered a chance to come back to the show in a limited role, but would prefer to walk away on my own terms.”
      Another source told the site that the TV star was “asked back for three episodes, so producers could close out her storyline.”
      Tamra revealed that her husband Eddie Judge and her children, sons Ryan Vieth, 34, and Spencer Barney 19, and daughter Sydney Barney, 21, and Sophia Barney, 14, “are very excited for her new chapter. “I want to thank all the fans who have offered me their support over the years. It’s meant a lot. I’m sad to go but I’m very excited about my future,” the Vena Wellness owner added.
      Prior to his, co-star Vicki Gulvalson shared that she left the show on Friday, January 24. “I will always be the OG of the OC, but it’s time to say goodbye to ‘The Real Housewives of Orange County’,” the 57-year-old wrote on Instagram, before referencing her famous party catchphrase. “It’s been an incredible ride for 14 years and I want to thank all of you for your support, for your love and for ‘whooping it up!’ ”
      “My podcast with Westwood One will be launching soon and I will have much more to say about this on Whoop It Up with Vicki,” she wrote. “I hope you will join me with my new journey so please stay tuned. I love all my fans, and I want to thank Bravo and Evolution for this incredible experience, which my family and I have will never forget.”

      “We have shared so many great and not so great times together and it has been the ride of our lives. Thelma and Louise …. now where do you want to go?!” she added.

      Vivica A. Fox Hopes Jussie Smollett Makes a Return for 'Empire' Finale

      by

      FOX

      During an appearance on ‘The Talk’, the actress portraying Candace Mason on the Lee Daniels-created series points out that the decision to bring back the Jamal Lyon depicter lies with the network.
      Jan 27, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Vivica A. Fox has urged TV bosses to bring Jussie Smollett back for the “Empire” finale.
      The actor has not appeared on the show since he was charged with wasting police time over an alleged race attack hoax in Chicago, Illinois last year (2019), and as the investigation into the incident and his subsequent arrest and release continues, Fox entertainment president Michael Thorn has made it clear that any talk of Smollett’s return should be ignored.
      But Vivica, who plays Candace on “Empire”, is hoping TV bosses see sense and bring his character, Jamal Lyon, back for one final episode before the drama wraps later this year (2020).
      “I love Jussie and I always will,” she tells “The Talk”. “He’s family. Things happen. We started the show with him and in my honest opinion, I’d love to finish it with him, but it is up to the network.”

      Speaking about creator Lee Daniels’ decision to cut Jussie on “Watch What Happens Live” in November (2019), she said, “There was just too much drama surrounding the circumstances… (but) don’t count him out. Y’all may see him.”

      White Reporter Uses N-Word During Live News Reporting on Kobe Bryant's Death

      by

      Instagram

      The MSNBC reporter Alison Morris seemingly uses racial slur to describe the Los Angeles Lakers following the NBA superstar’s sudden passing in a helicopter crash.
      Jan 27, 2020
      AceShowbiz – MSNBC came under fire after their white reporter Alison Morris seemingly blurted out the N-word when covering Kobe Bryant’s tragic death. She described the NBA legend as “the kind of star that was perfectly cast on the Los Angeles N****** — Los Angeles Lakers.”
      Rumor has it, the network has a 15-second delay to edit the racial slur but the footage was released uncensored. “WTF! How can you even get to that word from anything?!” one exclaimed. “There’s a lot of news reporters and journalists that need firing tonight.”
      Alison quickly took to Twitter to apologize, insisting she never said the N-word. “Earlier today, while reporting on the tragic news of Kobe Bryant’s passing, I unfortunately stuttered on air, combining the names of the Knicks and the Lakers to say ‘Nakers.’ Please know I did not & would NEVER use a racist term. I apologize for the confusion this caused,” she wrote.
      However, many people were skeptical of her explanation. “I listened to the clip SEVERAL times and you said the N word with a HARD G. So no we dont believe you,” one commented. Another added, “Ma’am you did not say Nakers.” A third person agreed, “She KNOWS she said the wrong thing cause after the fact she started talking a mile a minute.. smh.”
      Kobe Bryant passed away in a helicopter crash Sunday morning, January 26 in Calabasas. His 13-year-old daughter Gianna also died. They were en route to the Mamba Academy for her basketball practice. One of her teammates and another parent also perished as no one on board survived.
      Kobe Bryant was 41. He was survived by his wife Vanessa and their three other daughters, Natalia, Bianca, and baby Capri who was born in June 2019.
      Just hours before his death, Kobe congratulated fellow basketballer LeBron James as the latter climbed up to the third rank on the NBA all-time leading scorer, replacing Kobe who was moved down to the fourth spot. “Passed the torch right before his passing,” a fan commented.

      by

      ABC

      The actor playing Dr. Alex Karev on the hit medical drama series has recently shared that he looks forward to enjoying ‘life, family, love and friendship’ following his departure.
      Jan 25, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Justin Chambers’ exit from “Grey’s Anatomy” was explained in the show’s midseason premiere on Thursday, January 23, with the star’s departure fairly low-key.
      The actor, known for his role as Dr. Alex Karev, last featured in the 350th episode of the show, which aired in the U.S. in November (19) as part of the current season 16.
      [embedded content]
      However, he hasn’t filmed any episodes since, and his departure was confirmed in the show’s latest episode, as his character had returned home to care for his sick mother.
      As Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) visited Alex’s wife Jo Wilson Karev (Camilla Luddington) at their apartment and noticed that Alex wasn’t there, Jo explained, “He’s visiting his mom.”
      The 49-year-old previously revealed he’s “very excited” about the next chapter in his life, telling the New York Post’s gossip column Page Six he plans on taking things “one day at a time”, with ambitions to produce documentaries in the future.

      However, he’s first looking forward to enjoying “life, family, love and friendship”.

      Taraji P. Henson Confirms 'Empire' Spin-Off Is in the Works

      by

      NBC

      The Cookie Lyon depicter plays coy when asked in a television interview about the hip-hop drama spin-off rumors but she teases that ‘everything’s coming up roses.’
      Jan 25, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Actress Taraji P. Henson has hinted her stint on “Empire” is far from over amid reports suggesting she has landed her own spin-off.
      The star portrays family matriarch Cookie Lyon on Lee Daniels’ hit hip-hop drama series, which is currently in the midst of its sixth and final season, but recent rumours have indicated Henson will continue playing her larger-than-life character in a new side project – and she isn’t denying the claims.
      Asked about the possibility of fronting her own Empire spin-off, she coyly told U.S. breakfast show “Today”, “I mean, it could be, I don’t know. Some things I can’t talk about.”
      Henson then tried to change the topic of conversation, looking over to a bunch of flowers on a table next to her and remarking, “Ooh, these are pretty. What is this?”
      But when guest presenter Maria Shriver remarked, “I think she just said something,” Henson tried to downplay her actions, insisting, “I didn’t say anything, I said the flowers are (pretty).”
      The Oscar nominee then dropped her biggest hint yet, adding, “I said everything’s coming up roses!” as she exaggerated a wink at the camera.
      “I didn’t say anything, I didn’t!” she quipped.
      [embedded content]
      Henson’s interview emerges weeks after Fox network boss Michael Thorn admitted the topic had been discussed with “Empire” creators Daniels and Danny Strong – although there were no firm plans.
      “We have talked about it but there has been no pitch, and there has been no deals,” Thorn said. “Would we like to keep Taraji on our air for as long as possible? Of course!”

      Gabrielle Union Fires Back at Terry Crews After He Refutes Her Racism Claims Against 'AGT'

      by

      NBC

      The ‘Being Mary Jane’ actress promises to soon share her side of the story since the ‘America’s Got Talent’ host has already spoken out before the investigation is completed.
      Jan 25, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Gabrielle Union reacted after Terry Crews threw her under the bus in his recent TV interview. He refuted the racism claims made by the “Being Mary Jane” actress following her departure from “America’s Got Talent”. He also wondered why she hadn’t released an official statement.
      In response, Union took to Twitter to explain to her followers that there was an investigation going on regarding the issues and she waited for it to be completed before speaking out. However, she promised to soon reveal her side of the story since the host of the NBC talent show had already shared his.
      The former “AGT” judge hinted that she’s going to take a page out of Crews’ book and go on television for an interview as well. “Maaaaaan… We all agreed to let the investigation be completed before speaking but if we doing this… ohhhhh baby let’s gooooooooooo!” she tweeted.
      She also wrote, “Truth telling, wanting change & having MULTIPLE witnesses who bravely came forward to let EVERYONE know I didn’t lie or exaggerate, really exposes those who enthusiastically will throw you under the bus, forgetting quickly who stepped up 4 THEIR truth.”
      She added, “Can someone please ask abt what happens to all that diversity folks are talking about BEHIND THE SCENES. Like, legit… where the hell is all that diversity in the production though homie? In the decision making ranks who control the fate of the diversity in front of the camera?”
      Crews previously addressed Union’s controversial exit on “3rd Hour of Today”. “First of all I can’t speak for sexism because I’m not a woman, but I can speak on behalf on any racism comments,” he said. “That was never my experience on ‘America’s Got Talent’, in fact, it was the most diverse place I have ever been in my 20 years of entertainment. The Top 10 acts were asian, women, older, younger, black, white, it was everything in the gamut.”
      He continued, “When you look at what the allegations were about, it was given by an unnamed source. My thing is – it’s funny because I believe you should listen to women, you should always believe women so I asked my wife what I should do. She was like, ‘first of all, if it’s coming from an unnamed source – because Gabrielle Union has not made any statement to this day about any of these allegations publicly – …if she hasn’t made a statement, why would you?’ ”
      While Terry Crews along with Julianne Hough and Heidi Klum spoke in favor of the Simon Cowell-produced show, former judges Howard Stern and Sharon Osbourne supported Gabrielle Union.
      Stern said it’s “obvious” that Cowell “sets it up that the men stay, no matter how ugly they are, no matter how old they are, no matter how fat they are, no matter how talentless they are” while constantly replacing “the hot chicks with hotter chicks and younger chicks.”
      Osbourne agreed the “AGT” was a boys’ club. “The boys take care of each other and the women are not paid as much as the men,” she said, adding that Howie Mandel was hired and offered a private plane while she would fly commercial to live auditions.

      Wendy Williams Denies Farting on Her Live Show

      by

      CBS

      The ‘Wendy Williams Show’ host insists she didn’t fart and her stagehand backs up her claim by saying the sound happened when they filled a fish tank for guest Dr. Kate Biberdorf.
      Jan 25, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Wendy Williams has hit back at claims she farted on live television, insisting she “would have been laughing” if she had.
      “The Wendy Williams Show” host went viral after fans became convinced they spotted the star passing gas while presenting her Hot Topics segment on January 17, 2020.
      However, on Thursday’s January 23 episode, Wendy addressed the speculation, playing the footage and telling the audience, “I have never farted once on this show. As a matter of fact, I barely fart, you know why? Because gas gets released several different ways and mine is belching, because all I do is talk.”
      “Let me tell you something right now, okay? I don’t lean over like this to release a fart, I lean over like this because it’s comfortable. If I sit (straight up) all the time, it’s heavy on my spine. I don’t have the back. I’m not trying to get the back. I like to release my hips and lean, you know what I’m saying?… I’ve been doing this for 11 years on this show!”
      She also told the crowd that had she let one rip, she wouldn’t have been able to conceal her amusement.
      “I would have definitely been laughing because farts are always funny. You know a girl like me would have been laughing at that!” she giggled.
      The star also made reference to the noise fans heard in the clip, adding, “By the sound of that fart, I would have had to go change my costume! I would have left a mark in the seat. I wouldn’t even save the costume, I would have thrown it away. It’d probably be soiled beyond soiled-tivity.”
      Stagehand John Anderson also weighed in on the controversy, explaining that the sound had happened while he and his team were setting up for a segment with scientific author Dr. Kate Biberdorf.

      “We were filling up a fish tank backstage and we didn’t have the proper hose. The air was just coming out and it was sputtering like someone was farting. Okay? So that’s what it was. It wasn’t Wendy!” he said.
