Teen Mom star Maci Bookout spoke at Kennesaw State University Thursday night and someone in the audience bootlegged just about the entire thing and uploaded it to Youtube in a series of 10 videos. Keep reading to watch (actually – pretty much just listen) Maci as she talks about everything from breast feeding to her cast mates, to how much money she makes!
Houston, we don’t have a problem! The pretty gal you see is Miss Skylar Laine from Brandon, Mississippi. She’s a down home southern girl with a country twang and a Broadway background. She’s also a songwriter and has what you might consider to be an unhealthy Miranda Lambert obsession. I thought I’d put together a few pics and her bio as well as a couple of videos in one place so you can get a good idea of who Skylar is and decide for yourself if you think she’s got a chance to become the next American Idol.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 2 got super real. Just one of the many dramatic story-lines was Kim Richards’ increasingly erratic behavior. The Season 1 finale ended with a dramatic scene between Kim and her sister Kyle where Kyle called her an alcoholic. Kim had a brief stay in rehab after they finished filming, but walked out days later. Now, Kim is admitting for the first time on camera that she is, indeed, an alcoholic, telling Andy Cohen that’s why she went to rehab this winter.
Teen Mom Amber Portwood appeared before a judge yesterday in regards to whether or not she was going to be legally evicted from her home. Yes. She had to go to court to find out if she’s evicted from a home that she’s already moved her belongings out of and can’t live in because she’s in jail. Sometimes I wonder about our court system…
One of the 3.2 million viewers who tuned in for the super dramatic episode of Teen Mom 2 Tuesday night was none other than Britney’s little sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, who offered her sympathies to broken-hearted Chelsea Houska via Twitter. The two later arranged a tentative play date for their daughters Maddie (3) and Aubree (2)!
There are a lot of things meatballs don’t get along with, and gravity is certainly one of them. Check out this hilarious clip of Jersey Shore star Deena Nicole Cortese doing her best intoxicated Blunder Woman impression by swinging Mike’s exercise bands around her head before getting wrapped up and face planting into a piece of deck furniture. (Keep reading for the full clip, including the hilarious audio!)
When Dakota Fred Hurt rolled into Porcupine Creek just as the Hoffman’s were swirling the last bit of black sand out of their first pan of Season Two gold, there was no question who was being cast as the villain in Gold Rush 2. Dakota Fred’s timing and smirk were almost too evil to be plausible, and he became a very easy man to hate. But, does he deserve our disdain, or was it just edited to look that way?
It’s time once again for our weekly dose of Teen Mom 2 hangover medicine in the form of our After Show and bonus footage break down. On this week’s menu we’ve got more of Chelsea’s horrible case of Adamitis, Jenelle’s stand against alcohol and her roommate’s partying, Leah’s explanation as to why she felt her and Corey’s home wasn’t safe and Kailyn’s frustration at her single friends not understanding where she comes from. In addition the bonus footage reveals a super cute Aubree and Chelsea fessing up to her addiction other than Adam, leopard print!
After her latest arrest, Jenelle has taken a break from her prolific Twitter and Facebook updates, and now has a representative managing those accounts until her probation is finished April 2012. Starcasm, however, was able to talk to Jenelle, and we have some updates about what’s going on in her life.
According to the cover story in the latest issue of OK! magazine, Teen Mom 2 star Leah Messer has suffered a miscarriage. An “insider close to the reality star” reveals to the tabloid, “She was having bad cramps for the past two weeks, and then she miscarried.” Leah Messer’s fiance (and father-to-be) Jeremy Calvert reportedly spoke with OK!, saying, “It’s a devastating experience, but all I can do is support Leah and take things day by day.” He then adds, “It’s hard, but we will get through it.”
GTL reigned supreme over the GOP as MTV’s Jersey Shore finished the week ending January 22, 2012 as the most watched basic cable television show, beating out both Republican Presidential debates as well as History Channel powerhouse Pawn Stars and Lifetime’s original movie Drew Peterson: Untouchable. Keep reading for the rest of the Top 25!
While playing “Plead the Fifth” on Watch What Happens Live! Monday night The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville revealed that she hooked up with Gerard Butler for a week this summer! Keep reading for all the hot off the presses details!
UPDATED with more juicy deets!
Move over Kardashians, make way for Keeping Up With The Richards!
Keep reading for a ton of Mexican beach vacation photos from one of the best looking families in all of reality television with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards, her “Sexiest Real Housewives Husband” Maricio Umansky, and their four lovely daughters: Sophia, Farrah, Alexia, and little Portia.
Just when I find myself chanting along with a number of our commenters, demanding to know the answer to the puzzling questions, “Why do people care about Kim Kardashian?!?” that’s when I usually run across a photo like this one. Suddenly I’m curious to know more about this woman – her family, the rather low quality products she endorses, everything!
But, it seems my own personal weakness may not be shared by everyone, as the Kardashian brand is beginning to be viewed as “toxic” by business insiders. What do you think? Was Kim’s farcical marriage to Kris Humphries the beginning of the end of Kardashian relevance? Or will we all be lulled back into believing that we care by more AMAZING photos of Kim? (I confess I’m feeling really, really lulled right now.)
It’s our weekly “What’s Farrah Abraham up to now?” post! The last time we checked in with MTV’s resident Teen Momtrepreneur she had just revealed the labels for her new “Mom & Me” brand Italian hot sauce. This week she sat down with ACT.MTV.com for an interview in which she revealed her college plans won’t be stopping at a bachelor’s degree and she hopes to help out other teen parents in similar situations by setting up scholarships!
At least one person who has quarterbacked for the Denver Broncos is having sex. Former Denver QB Jay Cutler and his fiancée ex-fiancée fiancée Kristin Cavallari have announced they are expecting their first child together!
VH1’s mafia-themed reality series Mob Wives won fans over in its inaugural season with a cast of no-holds-barred drama mamas who were more than capable of both talking the talk and walking the walk! (And by “walking the walk” I mean going tooth and nail in knock-down, drag-out cat fights.) But it only took a couple episodes into the second season for Angela “Big Ang” Raiola to steal the show with her life-loving and drama-averse personality! Oh, and her obvious love of plastic surgery!
Keep reading to see lots of photos of Big Ang when she was A Little Bit Smaller Ang as well as slightly less surgerized.
No doubt the top reasons for tuning in to A&E’s Storage Wars are: seeing all the bizarre stuff left behind in storage lockers and how much it’s worth (or not), Barry Weiss, and Brandi Passante. (The order depends on a person’s weakness for collectibles, passion for custom automobiles, and testosterone levels.) For those of you who find yourselves smitten by Jarrod’s whip-cracking significant other (like yours truly) I uncovered these pictures of Brandi taken at the Grand Re-Opening of her and Jarrod’s Now and Then Thrift Store in Orange, California.
What? The Kardashians faked something? Color us shocked!
A few weeks ago on Kourtney and Kim Take New York Kim Kardashian was seen in a weird car scene with her mom Kris Jenner talking about problems she was having in her marriage to Kris Humphries. (This was the episode where they were in Dubai to open Millions of Milkshakes.) There were a few things shady with the scene: the car windows were blacked out, and at one point when she’s supposed to be talking to her mom about the divorce, the camera pans away and her voice is completely different. The minute the strange segment aired, Kris Humphries took to Twitter with a cryptic tweet:
At the end of the first season of Gold Rush, the Hoffman crew was on the gold; but the Alaska winter rolled in and they had to move out. They spent the off season dreaming of the fortunes waiting for them in the g|ory h0le that they had worked so long and hard to uncover. But, in Gold Rush 2, Dakota Fred Hurt is working Porcupine Creek, and the Hoffmans are 600 miles North on Quartz Creek in the Klondike? What happened to the Hoffman’s claim? How did Dakota Fred get it?
Watching Beavis and Butt-Head will never be the same thanks to self-employed special effects artist Kevin Kirkpatrick (Sucker Punch, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) who created life-like sculptures of the juvenile cartoonagers for the upcoming art show “Conjoined 2 in 3d; The Sequel” opening at the Copro Gallery on Saturday. If you’re not averse to OMG moments or night terrors, keep reading for the photos! “Heh heh!”
Teen Mom stars Maci Bookout and Catelynn Lowell as well as Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry were all in California recently doing a number of promotional events, including taping an episode of Dr. Drew’s Life Changers. While there, the three gals got together and posed for photographers Adam Bouska and Jeff Parshley in a series of NOH8 photographs opposing the state’s controversial anti-gay marriage legislation, Proposition 8. Keep reading for the photos including an appearance by Maci’s beau Kyle King and a behind-the-scenes shot of Maci and Kailyn!
CMT is about to unleash the outlandish Dowden family from NW Louisiana on the reality landscape. The show is called Bayou Billionaires and it’s like a fish out of water concept as it follows the Dowdens who just so happened to be sitting on the Haynesville Shale, which is one of the largest natural gas producing geological areas in the United States. Find out how this good fortune turns into what they call mailbox money including a video about the Haynesville Shale and additional clips of Gerald and Kitten explaining their good fortune.
The creator, director, and executive producer of AMC’s smash hit zombie drama The Walking Dead was shockingly let go by the network in July and both sides have been quite about what exactly happened. Darabont broke his silence in a recent interview with TV Guide and bitterly explains the reasons he left the show. (Includes my irreproachable argument for why I’m taking Frank Darabont’s side in this squabble as well as every other debate he is involved in ever.)
The CDC has recently released a report based on a survey of thousands of young teenage mothers who had unplanned pregnancies in the U.S. While the pregnancy rate among teenagers is falling we still have the highest rate among all developed countries. Some of the findings in this report highlight probable reasons why.
We’re all about the surreal world of reality TV and one of our favorite parts is when a seemingly ancillary character winds up stealing the spotlight and the hearts of the fan base of a show. The latest greatest example of this phenomenon is Angela “Big Ang” Raiola of Mob Wives. Peeps love em some Big Ang and some have went as far as to get her likeness permanently inked onto their body. Check out the Raiola ink and read some serious big love for “Big Ang” while you’re at it.
Fresh off a Golden Globe win for his lead role on Boss, actor Kelsey Grammer made his return to 30 Rock on tonight’s “Idiots Are People Two!” episode. Kelsey’s appearance in the actual episode is extraordinarily brief, but the last minute or so of the show is completely dedicated to Kelsey in the form of a James Bond intro spoof, during which he shoots a look alike of his ex-wife Camille Grammer!
Say what you will about Jersey Shore‘s demonstrative little superstar meatball, but no one can argue that Snooki knows how to give fans what they want – and it was clear after Snooki’s makeup-free photo took the internet by storm last night that what they wanted was more all-natural Snooki! Normally, fans wanting more all-natural Snooki would probably have resulted in more nude photos and possibly a rather excruciating naked pole dancing video, but in this case it meant more picture of Snooki completely unSnookified!
The Mob Wives 2nd season is going strong and one of the interesting trends I’ve noticed about the show is how popular it is among celebrities. There’s just something about the bombastic Staten Island fairies that appeals to folks in the spotlight. Two of the show’s outspoken fans, Queen Latifah and Wendy Williams, took their Drita devotion and Renee rhapsody a notch further by impersonating them in a scene from a skit on Wendy’s show called “Hairpiece Theater.” Check out the really funny clip and get Drita and Renee’s reaction.
An insider reveals in the latest issue of Star magazine that Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry has has multiple relationships with women since middle school, including an on-and-off-again relationship with her good friend Gigi Hanna. We talked with a source close to Kailyn and have every reason to believe this story is true. Keep reading for all the details!
See a mind-blowing photo of Jersey Shore star Snooki completely without makeup and then put your brain back together with the very same photo run through the “Snookify Me” app. (Seriously – the makeupless Snooki is downright exotically gorgeous don’t ya think?!?)
Fox’s standard bearer for competition reality shows, American Idol, kicks off its 11th season tonight at 8/7c and will air on Wednesday and Thursday nights for the next few months. But, starting February 5, it won’t be alone as NBC’s The Voice will begin its 2nd season right after the Super Bowl. (After the premiere, The Voice will air every Monday night.) Could this be the beginning of the end of Idol, or is this an overly bold move by NBC? And let us know know which show you will be tuned into by taking our poll!
It’s Wednesday, world which means starcasm is collectively recovering from another night of Teen Mom 2 tweeting. It was fun as always but now it’s time to mop the floors and toss out the margarita mixer bottles as I break down the After Show and bonus footage. This week we have Jenelle coming to grips with the fact that she might have a problem with the weed, Leah explains that Corey isn’t a good communicator and that vague geneticists are frustrating, Chelsea dives further into the depths of her Adam despair worrying that perhaps she isn’t attractive enough for him and Kailyn explains what Joe’s problem is with the child support situation.
While many sites on these here interwebs have blacked out to protest SOPA perhaps the toddlers of our great nation have silently pulled off a massive coup by getting the original Wiggle singer-gangsta Greg Page back in the fold. Find out why Greg originally said goodbye to Dorothy the Dinosaur and Captain Feathersword and how his replacement Sam has dealt with being told to “Z Ya.” Beauty mate!
Researching Barry Weiss of Storage Wars is like peeling an onion! As evidenced on the show, this rock star collector has had an amazing life during which he has made friends with a slew of fascinating famous and not-so-famous folks. One of the fascinating and famous folks counted among Barry’s friends is former Mr. Sandra Bullock, Jesse James, whom Barry isn’t only a friend to, he’s his godfather. No, seriously! And you’ll never guess which piece of infamous memorabilia Barry gave to his godson.
Starcasm is officially changing its name to BarryWeissopedia. This dude has more interesting stories than Barnes and Noble! But this post isn’t really a story necessarily, although it did lead to one (check out the very next post). This post is about Barry’s style – more specifically, his trademark black-rimmed custom glasses. Keep reading to find out who made ’em and whether or not it’s possible that you can own your own pair. (I hate to spoil it, but the answer to that question is “Yuuuuuuuuuuuuup!”)
One of the things we don’t get to talk enough about in regards to Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 are the songs used on the program and how they often play a pivotal role in driving the mama-drama. All that’s changing now as MTV has announced the release of the official Teen Mom Soundtrack featuring songs used during the highly successful cable show. Find out where to get the songs, the full track list and complete full versions of all 12 songs from the release here.
Sunday night was a good one for veteran actor Kelsey Grammer as he was awarded a Golden Globe for Actor, TV Drama for his role in Boss and he announced the good news that he’s expecting twins with his wife Kayte Walsh. All this should be joyful news of course, but when you’re wife is a flight attendant for whom you left a spicy Real Housewife of Beverly Hills for it’s never that easy. According to reports, ex-wife Camille Grammer, who just so happens to be the mother of two of Kelsey’s children, had no idea and was as surprised as the rest of us when the news dropped backstage at the Golden Globes. Read on for the latest and let us know if you think this is something Kelsey should have told Camille and his kids first.

It seems like only yesterday we were profiling Corey Simms’ new girlfriend Summer Tavarez, a 24-year-old manager of a tanning salon in Kanawha City, West Virginia. The couple appeared to be head over heels in love with each other, and we couldn’t have been happier for them. But it seems the match wasn’t one made in heaven because the two appeared to have split. Keep reading for the tweets and the official “Facebook relationship status updates.”
The Bachelor Ben Flajnik continues to whittle down his courters as the number of eligible bachelorettes is now down to 15. One of those remaining is model and VIP waitress Blakeley Shea Jones, who pulled no punches in episode two when she aggressively cornered Ben in the swimming pool for a steamy make-out session, much to the dismay of the other gals (as you might imagine).
Needless to say Blakeley is an early favorite as she has clearly caught the lustful eye of Ben Flajnik early on. But, guided tongue tours of the back of her mouth aren’t the only tours Blakeley is good at! Check out this video from the Re:Public night club in Charlotte, North Carolina where Blakeley works. The video features Blakeley Shea giving a tour of the club, including the exclusive VIP section and Re:Public’s “state of the art, one of a kind tequila bar.”

Eyebrows were raised when it was announced Lana Del Ray would be the musical guest on last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live, one of the rare times a singer that didn’t even have an album out yet has received the honor. Her performances did little to prove the decision was a wise one as nearly everyone is offering up harsh criticisms, or at best, sympathy for Lana after her cringe-worthy renditions of “Video Games” and “Blue Jean.” Keep reading to watch the clips and decide for yourself if the decision to have her perform on the show was perhaps a bit premature.
It seems that the bad case of train wreckitosis Kate Major caught while dating Patient Zero Michael Lohan is untreatable.

Keep reading for her most recent booking photo and take a trip down memory lane with a couple memorable clips of Michael and Kate from Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
