DLISTED – Kandi Burruss never tried to go down on Kim Zolciak, says Kandi Burruss. They’ve also each claimed that the other woman is a full-on swinger. The RHOA pay raise drama rages on

REALITY TEA – Speaking of Real Housewives, Dorit Kemsley has dropped the asking price of her Beverly Hills mansion a full $1.8 million dollars. It’s been on the market for six months and she reportedly wants to sell “quickly,” so if you’ve got a spare $10.8 million sitting around and are looking for a change of scene, give her a call

CELEBITCHY – Megyn Kelly, who recently encouraged fat shaming among women “because it works,” did a full George Costanza with her apology and now claims that every member of her family has been either overweight or obese.

JEZEBEL – The reporting on the Aziz Ansari story (including the initial story itself) has become utterly confusing, so here’s a helpful reminder of what journalism is supposed to do in situations like this.

LAINEY GOSSIP – If Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin share a gentle frolic on a beach and no paparazzi is there to snap pictures from afar, is it gossip?

UPROXX – A handful of concerned citizens want to take all the parts of California that aren’t the coast and turn them into a new state called — wait for it — New California. Mexico probably still has dibs
