LINKS Below Deck Sailing Yacht cast, BAFTA fashion, R. Kelly fails again…

REALITY TEAHere’s the Below Deck Sailing Yacht cast, just in time for the spin-off’s premiere episode. Side note: Does anyone else think the title Below Deck Sailing Yacht sounds like a poor translation from English into another language and then back into English? Like if instead of Real Housewives, Bravo renamed the franchise Real Housewives Lady Tableflip

JEZEBELIf you need your fashion fix ahead of the Oscars this weekend, here’s a hefty roundup of all the best and worst looks from last weekend’s BAFTA ceremony. Shout-out to Zoe Kravitz, who pulled off the award statue look in this gold Yves Saint Laurent gown

GO FUG YOURSELFAnd don’t stop there: Here’s all the looks from the BAFTA afterparty (there was only one?). Immediate takeaways: Burberry is cutting costs; Saoirse Ronan is completely untouchable; Nicole Scherzinger somehow makes this work

CELEBITCHYOne more pre-Oscars look for your consideration — is Charlize Theron in purple Dior “her best look of the awards season”?

THE BLASTIn decidedly unglamorous news, it will probably come as no surprise to hear that R. Kelly’s request to skip his next court hearing was smacked down by the judge in his case. Both of Kelly’s lawyers said they had other things to do and couldn’t be there, so things are going especially well for him

DLISTEDSpending any serious amount of time or money on a child’s first two birthdays is a pretty absurd thing to do, but then Kylie Jenner has money to burn and people to burn it for her

LAINEY GOSSIPEvidently this commercial for the Top Gun sequel aired during the ten minutes I was out of the room during the Super Bowl, because I completely missed it. Also, I am 100% on board with renaming the movie Maverick: Legend of the Skies, which sounds more like a Miyazaki film and is therefore correct

MY 600 LB LIFE Angie J today: Confirms follow-up episode; accuses producers of reality TV fakery

Controversial My 600 Lb Life cast member Angie J will indeed be appearing in a new episode, despite leveling new accusations of reality TV fakery against the show’s producers.

EXCLUSIVE MY 600 LB LIFE Brianne Dias’ husband Rick leaving her for ‘demon woman’ of their hometown

We’ve got a sad and unfortunate My 600 Lb Life Brianne Dias update regarding the Season 7 star’s marriage to her now-estranged husband Rick. According to an anonymous source from the pair’s town of Florence OR, Rick has apparently carried on a public affair with a former friend of Brianne’s while Brianne has been in Houston working with Dr. Nowzaradan.

LINKS J-Lo and Shakira, Super Bowl commercials, Groundhog prediction…

CELEBITCHYSo J-Lo and Shakira put on an energetic and really fun Super Bowl halftime show that still somehow managed to ruffle a ton of feathers thanks to people still uncomfortable with grinding and pole dancing. (Surprisingly, J-Lo’s political undertones seemed to sneak right by almost everyone)

VOXThere was also the usual spate of celebrity- and pop culture reference-laden Super Bowl commercials, most of which were dull as hell. I actually really liked the HSN satire that Avocados From Mexico put together, because it’s always fun to see a mirror held up to an audience without the audience’s awareness. Facebook’s was garbage. What did you, the viewers at home, think?

DLISTEDOn a related note, Jason Momoa’s pre-Super Bowl Super Bowl commercial was even better than his Super Bowl commercial, which had people shrieking and covering their eyes in the living room where I watched

THE BLASTBack to the spectacle itself: Demi Lovato is getting rave reviews for both her rendition of the Star Spangled Banner and the all-white outfit she wore to perform it

THE BLEMISHOh right, a football game happened during all that as well. Kansas City won its first NFL championship in 50 years, but the wrong guy won the game’s MVP trophy

JEZEBELOh, and it was *also* Groundhog Day yesterday. (I forgot until after seeing Jeep’s commercial with Bill Murray.) Not-Punxsutawney-Phil did not see its shadow for the fifth year in a row, meaning winter is over and it’s okay to complain about how it’s so hot that you can’t wait for autumn to begin

LINKS Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, Coronaconfusion, 50 Cent Walk of Fame…

DLISTEDRihanna and A$AP Rocky are at least tabloid-dating, so we can assume that someone in one or both of their camps wants the gossip out there. Also, isn’t it delightful how often “dating” is literally a euphemism for “f*cking in hotel suites whenever they get the chance”

CELEBITCHYIt seems that a great many people believe somehow Corona (the beer) is related to or outright responsible for coronavirus (the new strain of nCOV responsible for 170 deaths and counting)

THE BLASTYesterday 50 Cent got himself a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and Eminem inducted him onto (into?) the walkway with a heartfelt speech full of memories, praise, and an unexpected Scrabble reference

THE BLEMISHIt kind of looks like Tom Brady is walking back onto a football field in this cryptic pic he shared yesterday, which would suggest he’s not retiring? But then it also looks like he’s wearing a business suit or some other kind of formalwear, and so maybe he actually is? Or maybe the whole point was that he wanted all eyes back on him as we head into Super Bowl weekend

Mendeecees free: LHHNY star comes home after four years in prison

After just over four years in federal prison and more early release rumors than we can recall, Mendeecees free has finally happened. The LHHNY star, who in January 2016 began his sentence on drug trafficking charges, celebrated his long-awaited return home with wife Yandy Smith-Harris just yesterday. And Mendeecees’ first public act after coming home was a pivotal one — read on for the video, plus more details.
