In the wake of everything that happened this week, rappers Snoop Dogg and The Game teamed up to lead a peaceful demonstration called Operation H.U.N.T. (Hate Us Not Today, Hunt Us Not Today). The Game posted an open invitation on his Instagram on Friday morning:

Blind Gossip Exclusive Blind Item - Spicy Girl Swirls

We just received half a dozen new photos that we will describe to you.

They feature a wholesome female TV star who is actually very hot and spicy behind closed doors. She has stirred up a lot of discussion on our site over the years.

We’ve examined each of the photos closely, and the pixelation looks correct, indicating that the photos do not look like they were altered in any way. They were all taken at close range, and our TV Star is clearly identifiable.

She sent these photos to a male celebrity… who may now be sharing them with others.

If reading descriptions of raunchy photos isn’t to your taste, you will want to skip the rest of this post, as it is definitely NSFW!

PHOTO 1 She is in a bathroom. She is fully made up. Her back is to the mirror and she is looking straight at the camera with her eyebrows raised and her mouth in an O shape, mugging suggestively for whoever is taking the photo. She has pulled down her bra and is cupping her breasts and pushing them together.

PHOTO 2 This selfie was taken in an indoor room with mini-blinds on the window. Her hair is slightly damp, and the only thing she is wearing is a silver necklace and small round earrings. She is leaning forward towards the camera, with her breasts hanging straight down from her torso and a big smile on her face.

PHOTO 3 She is kneeling on a striped carpet. She is heavily made up and is looking directly up and smiling broadly at the man taking the photograph. He is taking her photo with one hand and holding his penis approximately two inches from her mouth with the other.

PHOTOS 4 and 5 Two photos look as if they were taken a few seconds apart. She is in a room with long white drapes and a valance like you would see in a hotel room. She appears to be astride someone who is lying underneath her on the bed. She is naked. That person takes two photos of her, one leaning towards him, and the other sitting up. She has a big smile on her face, and her hair is swept over to one side.

PHOTO 6 She is in a white, well-lit room. There is a single black lamp in the corner. A man with close-cropped hair is sitting on a striped sofa, and she is straddling him. She is leaning forward, bracing herself with her hand on the back of the sofa, and her back is arched. A large and muscular second man with a shaved head is penetrating her from behind. He has one hand on her waist and one hand on the arm of the sofa. Both men are black. A fourth person is taking the photo, and she is looking directly at him.

Jaden Smith Is On the Cover of Nylon

Jaden Smith decided to give us the gift of a new interview for his 18th birthday, which is today. One day it will be a national holiday. Here's the latest from his interview with Nylon Magazine:

On his favorite emoji:
“Do I have a favorite emoji? Uh…uh…probably…the—The square emoji.”

On what he has coming up:
“There are a lot of things coming that I’m very excited for that I’m not going to tell you about any of them :)”

On his fashion choices:
'[I want to] inspire and change the way people think about clothing and about life.”

On confidence:
“You just have to believe in yourself, you know. The world is going to keep bashing me for whatever I do, and I’m going to keep not caring. I’m going to keep doing the same things—I’m going to keep doing more things. I’m going to take most of the blows for my fellow MSFTS. So, you know, in five years when a kid goes to school wearing a skirt, he won’t get beat up and kids won’t get mad at him. It just doesn’t matter. I’m taking the brunt of it so that later on, my kids and the next generations of kids will all think that certain things are normal that weren’t expected before my time.” 

On his Louis Vuitton skirt shot:
“It was lit because we all knew that we were going to impact the culture and change the game and make a difference.”

On gaining inspiration from the 1970's:
“[People] were more dedicated to learning and I feel like that is not something that we necessarily have right now. People would go to record stores and actually buy the records they wanted. They would go to bookstores and read up on Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, Gandhi, and all these different people. And now we just have the internet to do everything for us.”

On the Mediterranean Sea, off the coast of Italy:
“I’ve only been there once, but it’s my favorite place to be, and it’s the easiest place to forget about all of the misconceptions, misunderstandings, and misfortunes of planet Earth.”

On his philosophy:
“The greatest lesson I’ve learned from my parents is to be myself, at all costs, no matter what anybody thinks.”

Welcome to adulting, little dude. I hope Xenu got you a brand new built-to-scale pyramid for the backyard for your birthday!

Catching Up with Idris Elba

Idris Elba is on the cover of this month's Interview Magazine. Inside, he is interviewed by Jon Favreau. Here are some highlights from their conversation:

FAVREAU: "And then, of course, with Luther and The Wire, you're dealing with so many hours of entertainment that you're not going to have that same intense collaboration with one single person. It becomes more of a collaborative sport. I know The Wire better than I know Luther, but there was a tremendous level of consistency in the storytelling in that one. I think it's commonly agreed upon that The Wire is one of the best shows to ever air. How was that experience different? The character you played had just as much depth—probably more depth because of how much screen time there was—than the characters you played in features."

ELBA: "That's true. Television is where I cut my teeth. One of my first jobs was in a soap opera, five days a week. And what I found is, although there are different directors coming in and different crews, you just lived in your character. It's the nature of the story, the ongoing story, and it can get deeper and deeper. And The Wire—I had moved to America a few years earlier. I had to get a job. And this character came about, and I jumped straight in. And it was like, "Today we're doing this scene in this part of this story line in this part of this world." You don't have the luxury like you do in films to do one scene per day. But what kept the quality control up was that the writing was so phenomenal. The guest director could just drop into the world, those characters and their environments, and start filming, because it was sewn into us. That was our world." 

FAVREAU: "Like special forces. Whatever the assignment, you're ready and you hit the beaches running." 

ELBA: "Exactly. And Luther is similar. There were no luxuries on Luther. It was a tough set; we worked six-day weeks in London, sometimes in the bitter cold. But the quality comes from the writing. Neil Cross has always been a great writer. But, again, we just plug and play, like you say. It's a task force and we get on with it."

ELBA: "Can I ask you a question?"

FAVREAU: "Yeah. Please."

ELBA: "I'll tell you a story and ask you a question. So I was at a party not too long ago, and I ran into Ben Affleck. I'd had a bit to drink, and I was super excited to see him. And the reason why I'm excited to see Ben is because Ben, like yourself, is an actor who can direct. And I've sort of been in development to direct my first feature film. I've done a couple of music videos and a couple of shorts, and I'm going into that world of the feature. And I say to Ben, [slurring] "Oh Ben, hey, man. Bro, can you tell me ... I just, like, I think you're incredible." I'm like, "I'm so interested in that transition. You're an actor, and you're directing, and I want to know what you had to go through and how you're getting people ..." And at the time, he was like, "Idris, just call me." I didn't call him ever. But I wanted to pose the same question to you if that's okay."

FAVREAU: "Well, the first thing I would say is, just on a gut level, I would buy Idris stock as a director. You carry your energy into a room in a way that would be good for a film set. I think you naturally have a certain presence that would work well with a crew. I think you've probably cultivated that by being an actor because, as you know, if both the energies of the lead actor and the director are good, the whole movie tends to go well. That's intangible and hard to teach. The other thing I would say is that by working with this long list of directors ... Well, my secret was that I got this wonderful paid apprenticeship, being an actor on all of these film sets. I generally wasn't the movie star; I was number five on the call sheet. But I was still on the set, and that gave me tremendous access to everybody. And, as you said, what you like about a director like Ridley Scott or Guillermo is that he understands what every department is doing, and has a stake in every decision being made. Directing doesn't have a built-in apprenticeship as other crafts do, which is unfortunate because you can learn so much just by watching other people. So I think that you've already had your film school. A trick that I used especially when I was less experienced, but still draw on sometimes, is just channeling the behavior of somebody that I respect, carrying myself in a way, imitating somebody that I've worked for that I like. It'll get you through rough patches where you don't know what to do. "

Ashley Graham Has Some Words for Amy Schumer

Plus size model Ashely Graham is on the cover of this month's Cosmopolitan magazine. Here's what she had to say about Amy Schumer getting butthurt about getting called "plus size" by Glamour Magazine:

On Amy Schumer taking Glamour to task for implying she is plus-size: 
"I can see both sides, but Amy talks about being a big girl in the industry. You thrive on being a big girl, but when you're grouped in with us, you're not happy about it? That, to me, felt like a double standard."

On calling herself a model and not a plus-size model: 
"Just because I'm not calling myself plus-size doesn't mean I'm not representing a woman who is … I'm giving curvy women a seat at a table that we've never been invited to before —a table with high-end fashion people who have never considered us beautiful."

On the trolls who remark on her interracial relationship with husband Justin Ervin: 
"One comment on Instagram was 'I knew a girl her size could only be with a black guy.' I think that's so ugly. But we talk about the fact that I'm white and he's black all the time. I've seen how racist America is. It's opened my eyes to how ignorant I have been, how white privilege has taken over a lot of my thoughts and actions because it's just something that I take for granted."

On a previous relationship with an alcoholic: 
"He was abusive in more than one way ... He threw a couch on me. He came home drunk. I was sitting on it, and he flipped it upside down. I remember my elbow being jammed but thinking, He didn't hit me; he was just really angry, you know? You hear stories of women who say the exact same thing — I wasn't showing up with bruises, he wasn't beating me every day. Looking back, I should've left, but I was an insecure woman in a terrible relationship who did not know herself."

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Great Family Vacation

It’s great when a good-looking TV star takes his wife and kids on a fun summer vacation.

It’s not so great when that same TV star is flirting and collecting phone numbers from attractive venue staff when his wife and children are nearby!

"He was asking my friend if he lived nearby and when he got off [work], and if he wanted to get together for a drink or to work out together and then get a drink. His wife and kids were were less than fifty feet away!!!"

Yes, our TV star is bisexual. He prefers men, but he will sleep with women too if there isn’t a cute guy around. As long as you’re hot, he’s interested.

This A-list personality has worked the same job for what feels like an eternity. He’s been very popular in the public eye and he’s likely a household name, but he’s sick of his job and he wants to quit. He hasn’t been emotionally invested in the role for the past couple of years and he wants to retire, but he can’t. When it comes to actually quitting, he quivers, worries and panics, and signs on up once again.

Mila Kunis Gives Zero Fucks, and It's Hella Refreshing

Mila Kunis is on the cover of this month's Glamour Magazine. Here's what she had to say:

GLAMOUR: In 2012 you told Glamour, “I’d rather be in love and have a baby than have a movie.” And here you are with all three. Was there a point where you really thought you would have to choose?

MILA KUNIS: I got—knock on wood—very lucky. But I did choose. I took a chunk of time off. If it were up to [Ashton], we would have had kids much sooner. But I had contracts for films I had to do. I was like, “Let me finish this last thing, Jupiter Ascending, and we’re a go. I’m going to take a solid break from acting.” And let me tell you, when I would get a call with an offer, I wouldn’t even flinch. I was like, “No, I’m pregnant.” “No, I have a baby.” I wasn’t ready to go back. I was so happy saying no that I knew it was the right decision.

GLAMOUR: Did you ever fear, “Oh, I’ve said no so many times, they’re not going to call me anymore”?

MK: I was OK with it. And I was like, “Whatever will happen will happen.” As an actor, you travel so much. It isn’t great for a marriage. In a marriage, you and your partner come first. And unless you and your partner are happy, that kid’s never going to be happy. I ultimately started my production company, so I have a 9-to-5. I can’t not work. I don’t know what it’s like to not work; my family embedded that in me.

GLAMOUR: Given your family history, did it strike a chord with you seeing presidential contenders like Donald Trump stoke anti-­Mexican-immigrant and anti-Muslim-immigrant fears?

MK: It’s even more than that. The whole Syrian-refugee thing—we came here on a religious-refugee visa, and I’m not going to blow this country up. I’m clearly paying taxes. I’m not taking anything away. So the fact that people look at what’s happening and are like, “Pfft, they’re going to blow sh-t up”? It saddens me how much fear we’ve instilled in ourselves. And going from there to the whole, “Hey, let’s build a wall between Los Angeles and Mexico”.… I don’t even have to answer that one. There’s no point. It’s a really great sound bite. And it got him far. Nobody should be mad at him; we did it to ourselves.

GLAMOUR: Along those lines of looking perfect: The photo of you that’s on the back cover of this magazine is very clean-faced—

MK: We had, like, no makeup.

GLAMOUR: How did it feel to be photographed that way?

MK: Fine! I don’t wear makeup. I don’t wash my hair every day. It’s not something that I associate with myself. I commend women who wake up 30, 40 minutes early to put on eyeliner. I think it’s ­beautiful. I’m just not that person. So to go to a shoot and have my makeup artist put on face cream and send me off to do a photo, I was like, “Well, this makes life easy.” And you’re still protected. Nobody’s there to make you look bad. Do you watch Game of Thrones?

GLAMOUR: Yes.

MK: Well, it’s not like I’m being scrutinized and made to walk down the street naked while shit’s being thrown at me!

GLAMOUR: You and Ashton met on That ’70s Show close to 20 years ago. What bedrock does it give the relationship to have gone through that together?

MK: We can’t bullshit each other. I literally can’t lie to him. He can call me out on everything, and I can do the same, because there’s nothing about the other person’s face that we don’t know. We know when they’re acting, thus we know when they’re lying. Sometimes he’ll look at me, be like, “Really?” And I’m like, “Fuck.” [Laughs.]

GLAMOUR: You know every gesture, every facial tic.

MK: Uh-huh. There’s nothing we don’t know about each other because we’ve known each other for so long: the ugly, the bad, the good. We went through a period where I thought he was crazy. At the height of his career, I was like, “Ugh, I don’t like you. I don’t even know you anymore. You think you’re such hot shit.”

GLAMOUR: You had breakups when you weren’t even together?

MK: Yeah, fully. Full friendship breakups. And then we’d get back together and be like, “Oh, sorry. I didn’t mean to overreact.” “That’s OK.” All the time. It truly is being married to your best friend. That’s a clichΓ©; it’s cheesy. But it’s true.

Margot Robbie Talks Simulating Sex With Leo DiCaprio

Margot Robbie recently sat down for an interview with Vanity Fair, where she recalled her Wolf of Wall Street sex scenes. Here's what she had to say:

Margot Robbie: “In that first low-budget film I did in Australia, I had a shower scene. So I was practically naked there as well, but it wasn’t anywhere as much as in Wolf, but it was still . . . Actually, I hadn’t done a proper sex scene before. I’d done scenes where it’s leading into sex or sex has just finished, but I hadn’t done a start-to-finish sex scene like I did in Wolf. That was my first.”

Vanity Fair: “Is there any way to prepare?”

MR: “No. Tons of people are watching you.”

VF: “Were you worried you were not going to be able to do it?”

MR: “There isn’t an option. It’s just like, This is what you need to do—get on with it. The sooner you do it, the sooner you can stop doing it.”

VF: “It just seems very awkward.”

MR: “It’s so awkward.”

Rose McGowan Has No Time for Renee Zellweger Haters

After Variety film critic Owen Glieberman wrote a critical piece titled "Renee Zellweger: If She No Longer Looks Like Herself Has She Become a Different Actress?", self-appointed patron saint of wronged Hollywood women Rose McGowan wrote a retort, which was published in The Hollywood Reporter. Here is an excerpt from her essay:

"Owen Gleiberman, this is not a counterpoint. There is no counterpoint, there is no defense for the indefensible.

Renee Zellweger is a human being, with feelings, with a life, with love and with triumphs and struggles, just like the rest of us. How dare you use her as a punching bag in your mistaken attempt to make a mark at your new job. How dare you bully a woman who has done nothing but try to entertain people like you. Her crime, according to you, is growing older in a way you don’t approve of. Who are you to approve of anything? What you are doing is vile, damaging, stupid and cruel. It also reeks of status quo white-male privilege. So assured are you in your place in the firmament that is Hollywood, you felt it was OK to do this. And your editors at Variety felt this was more than OK to run.

You are an active endorser of what is tantamount to harassment and abuse of actresses and women. I speak as someone who was abused by Hollywood and by people like you in the media, but I’m a different breed, one they didn't count on. I refuse and reject this bullshit on behalf of those who feel they can't speak. I am someone who was forced by a studio to go on Howard Stern, where he asked me to show him my labia while my grinning male and female publicists stood to the side and did nothing to protect me. I am someone who has withstood death threats from fan boys, had fat sites devoted to me. I've withstood harassment on a level you can’t comprehend, Owen.

I was so confused by the heaping tons of abuse, I actually forgot what I looked like. Which is awesome because I rose up from some serious ashes to finally have my say. Here's some truth: Men like you and the women who sit idly by and say nothing should know that aiding and abetting is a moral crime, and if it were punished in Hollywood, most of you would be in some form of jail.

...Owen, the last line in your article, “I hope it turns out to be a movie about a gloriously ordinary person rather than someone who looks like she no longer wants to be who she is” is quite the mind fuck.

Guess what? It is time to stop fucking with women's minds.

Do you know what my interests are, Owen?

My interests are bigger than pondering a stranger’s face. My interest is destroying the status quo. My interest as a card-carrying member of society is to STOP the brainwashing Hollywood and the media have for too long gotten away with. The brainwashing that you have long been a friend to and a supporter of.

Let’s talk about Hollywood writers: Joan Didion, John Fante, Raymond Chandler, Robert Towne, Dorothy Parker, John Gregory Dunne, Preston Sturges, I.A.L. Diamond, Pauline Kael and Billy Wilder. These were writers on Hollywood.

You, Owen Gleiberman, are not they.

You are simply a bully on semiglossy paper."

Gretchen Carlson Sues Fox News CEO Roger Ailes For Sexual Harassment

People reports that former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson has sued her former employer, Fox News CEO Roger Ailes, for sexual harassment and retaliation after she refused his advances: "She was not invited to big events, she was not allowed to cover breaking news, she was not assigned to very important political events – they actually took her picture down from Fox News Studios. The goal was to lower her profile and then fire her." 


Carlson released the following statement to People:
"I have strived to empower women and girls throughout my entire career. Although this was a difficult step to take, I had to stand up for myself and speak out for all women and the next generation of women in the workplace. I am extremely proud of my accomplishments at Fox News and for keeping our loyal viewers engaged and informed on events and news topics of the day." 

Naturally, Ailes denies the allegations.


Tig Notaro Is a Mom

Comedian Tig Notaro, 45, and wife Stephanie Allynne, have welcomed their first children together. Us Weekly reports that the couple are now the proud parents to twin boys Finn and Max. Notaro has this to say when announcing the pregnancy back in January: "When Stephanie and I got together, after so much excessive travel and work, we imagined a life where we could eventually raise a family amongst our own family one day. Now it blows our minds that our dream has been realized over the past nearly 3 years in the making. I have really come to believe SO MUCH in the saying that 'it takes a village' and we have taken that to heart by creating our own little village tucked away in the hills of Los Angeles."


Ciara and Russell Wilson Are Married

E! News reports that Ciara, 30, and Russell Wilson, 27, have tied the knot at the Peckforton Castle in Cheshire, England. The couple began dating in April 2015. This is the first marriage for Ciara, who has a two-year-old son with rapper Future. This is the second marriage for Wilson; he was previously married from 2012-2014. If you're thinking to yourself, "Wait, this doesn't count because they got married outside of the US," TMZ reports that the pair headed to a courthouse in Washington on July 5th to legally wed before they headed across the pond for the big ceremony. After Wilson vowed to remain celibate until he wed the pop princess, I think we all know what they'll finally be doing now!

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Roommate Talks About the Visitors

Controversy has always swirled around this superstar film actor as far as his sexuality is concerned. Given his publicity-driven relationships, multiple marriages, and odd behavior, there has been much speculation about whether he is gay, bisexual, straight, or even asexual.

Let’s give you some more food for thought!

Early in his career – specifically in the 1980s – he was part of a film that included several other big-name male actors. This was before his really big breakout film. His roommate during filming was another actor who also went on to become very famous.

"[The roommate] told us that says that they shared living quarters while they were filming. He said that there was a constant stream of women visitors to and from [Actor’s] bed."

Interesting.

The Gossip Life Blind Item - As Patronising As Goop

As you may know Goop (Gwyneth Paltrow) is often chastised within the gossip community for her habit of collecting celebrity friends and trying her hardest to act cool, but all the while people have been focusing on the Goopster, they’ve missed another B-list celebrity who is just as patronising, desperate and pretentious. More about her? She’s a former B-list television actress that was on one of the hottest television shows of the modern era.


Who is she?

Kardashian Korner

I know you're all very invested in who the Kardashians are sleeping with, so here's the latest:

People reports that Kendall Jenner is dating LA Laker Jordan Clarkson. A source says of the couple, who have been linked since March: "They're very openly affectionate when they're comfortable ... with friends or alone on a date. They enjoy low-key dates like quiet dinners where they won't be bothered." 

Next up, Us Weekly reports that Khloe Kardashian was all over Trey Songz over the weekend in Las Vegas. Songz previously appeared on an episode of Kocktails with Khloe, and has been spotted getting cozy with the Kardashian since he birthday bash on Monday, June 27th at Dave & Busters.

Finally, Kanye West has released his full 10 minute Famous video to YouTube, so you can enjoy the whole thing in all of its glory. Praise Yeezus! As always, it is NSFW.
