Danny Masterson Investigated For Decade-Old Sexual Assault Claims
Tony Ortega has been busy! Page Six reports that on his website The Underground Bunker, Ortega recently revealed that actor Danny Masterson, who is married to Bijou Phillips, is under investigation for sexual assault. The LAPD confirms that information, stating, “The Los Angeles Police Department Robbery Homicide Division, Sexual Assault Section, is conducting an investigation involving the actor Danny Masterson. Three women have come forward and disclosed that they were sexually assaulted by Masterson during the early 2000s.”
All women were Scientologists when it happened, and Leah Remini recently encouraged one of the women to report her 15-year-old assault to the LAPD after hearing her story.
Masterson's reps vehemently deny the charges, stating: “We are aware of [the alleged victim’s old] allegations. It was only after [the alleged victim] was in contact with Leah Remini that she made allegations of sexual assault by Mr. Masterson. In fact, we are informed by the Church that the only demand [the alleged victim] made of the Church after Danny broke up with her was asking for their help to intervene so the breakup would not be permanent. We are aware also that approximately 14 years ago a woman referred to in the blog made allegations of sexual assault and that the LAPD interviewed numerous witnesses and determined the claim had no merit. Based on reading the anti-Scientology blog that posted this story, these false allegations appear to be motivated to boost Leah Remini’s anti-Scientology television series since [the alleged victim] only came forward after connecting with Leah Remini.”

Blind Gossip Blind Item- Double Pump
This famous singer just pumped up a part of her body to unnatural proportions!
Most plastic surgeons advocate a specific proportional ratio where the lower lip is 1.5-2 times bigger than the cupid’s bow of the upper lip. Once you go outside that ratio, the lips start to look odd and unnatural.
Our singer used to have ideal lip proportions. But, for some reason, she just doubled the size of her upper lip so that it is now the same size as her lower lip. Yikes!
Speaking of double, we don’t even know why she is getting injectables while she is pregnant.
We absolutely recommend to our patients that do not have ANY sort of cosmetic procedures while pregnant or nursing. That goes for hyaluronic acid (e.g. Restalayne or Juvaderm), as well as botulinum toxin injections (Botox).

Kardashian Korner
Khloe Kardashian's ex-boyfriend James Harden recently sat down for an interview with Sports Illustrated, where he opened up about what it's like to date a Kardashian. Here's what he had to say:
“I didn’t like all the attention. I feel like it was for no reason. I wasn’t getting anything out of it except my name out there and my face out there, and I don’t need that. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but it wasn’t me. I don’t need pictures of myself when I’m driving my car. Who cares? What shoes am I wearing? Who cares? Where am I eating? Who cares? It was unnecessary stuff that I think trickled down to my teammates. I had to eliminate that.”

Kristen Stewart Talks Karl Lagerfeld
Kristen Stewart is on the cover of the latest issue of V Magazine; here's what she had to say in the accompanying interview:
On her relationship to fashion and Karl Lagerfeld:
"Karl has always, from the very beginning, made me feel like being myself was the right thing to do. And in [the fashion] world, that is a rarity. He’s a compulsive and obsessive artist and it’s contagious. And he’s kind. He is who he is for a reason. I feel so lucky to be in his space so often."
On [her new movie] Personal Shopper's portrayal of technology:
“When you speak to someone on the phone, that is a decipherable, understandable exchange. But with text and social media, it’s essentially a dialogue with yourself and your interpretation of a shadow. It’s not invalid; it’s a new language.”
On the impact of social media and technology on our daily lives:
“But you also become addicted to that hit by yourself and with yourself, every seven minutes or so, and you end up wasting so much time just validating something very superficial in yourself. It has definitely changed us.”
On the demands of Hollywood and how she deals with them:
“I know that it seems like just a couple weeks at a time or whatever, but between Cannes and the New York Film Festival, it seems like I need to force myself to be like, 'OK no, stop being external. Enough of the output.' Sometimes, you need to—this sounds so cliché—meditate on replenishing the well."

Bossip Blind Item - This NBA Baller Went Missing After Learning His BabyMama Was Boo'ed Up With Another Player
Missing Ball Player Mystery Solved
Not since Jason Kidd gave Jim Jackson them hands over Toni Braxton have we been this amused by a sports rumor…
This one is kinda juicy. It involves a veteran player whose absence from a game early this year made it into headlines. One of his teammates told press he was okay, but we hear he couldn’t make it because he was in another STATE! Our sources tell us the missing player made a last-minute decision to fly to his hometown where the whole city was buzzing over his babymama being boo’ed up with another baller from a rival team at a Sunday night hotspot. We hear Mr. Missing In Action flew all the way home to confront his son’s mom when he learned she’d been spotted holding hands and kissing one of the NBA’s most eligible bachelors — in town for a game Tuesday. The irony is the player is not currently in a relationship with his son’s mother…
Any guesses who we’re talking about?
We may be revealing this one down the road soon…

Us Weekly reports that Amber Heard is having a "casual" relationship with billionaire Elon Musk. A source says of the "couple":
“They continue to see each other and hang out from time to time when they are in the same city. It is nothing new.

But they hang out and casually see each other whenever time permits."
Um, who is this source going around town telling magazines that Amber and Elon are basically high-end fuck buddies?

Blind Gossip Blind Item - He Just Met With a Surgeon
This musician was big in the 1990s. He had at least one album hit #1 on the Billboard charts and even won an AMA for his rap/hip-hop music. He is now older and has kids who want big show business careers, too.
Speaking of big: He is now looking to improve himself in a big way. No, not spiritually. Physically.
To that end, he recently had a consultation with a Los Angeles-based surgeon… about having penis extension surgery!
He has always been master of his domain. Guess he now just wants to have a bigger domain!

Katie Holmes Values her Privacy
Katie Holmes recently sat down for an interview with Town & Country Magazine; here are some of the highlights:
On her career trajectory:
"For now I like acting and directing. Eventually I'll just direct. It's been something that has come to me over time. I've been acting for about 20 years now, and in the last few years I've become more confident and gotten more interested in storytelling as a whole. Also, I've been feeling inspired to put my point of view out there. It's scary, but the process of it is something I really love."
On maintaining a work/life balance:
"This business is so unstable, and you never really know where you're going to be. The thing about directing is I can say I have this window and that's when we're getting it done. My child is the most important person to me, and her upbringing is paramount to my work right now. It's very important that I'm present and she has a stable, innocent childhood. I feel so blessed to do what I do, but there's nothing in the world better than watching your child succeed."
On valuing her privacy:
"To experience something publicly and privately is a lot for a person to go through. In today's world a lot of celebrities probably shield their children from the tabloids; in my household we know what they print isn't true, so we don't pay attention. There are more important things. But it's very relatable to me; if people know who you are, they might write about you, and you can't control that...I take time off, and I like to spend it with my family. I have a lot of nieces and nephews, and they grow up so fast. I really miss them, so it's nice to have those moments with board games and normal stuff."

On falling in love:
“I’ve never looked at love as something that I need to complete me. I would like to be complete on my own first and fall in love with somebody who is also complete. You can still celebrate and be totally obsessed with each other, but I want to feel a hundred percent myself so that I can love that person better.”
On her boyfriend, Mac Miller:
“I met him when I was 19. We have loved and adored and respected each other since the beginning, since before we even met, just because we were fans of each other’s talent. We weren’t ready at all, though, to be together. It’s just timing.”
On Madonna:
“I have the utmost respect for that woman. I love her with every ounce of my being, and not just because I’m obsessed with her entire discography. I’m so inspired by her bravery and her strength. I can look at her and not be scared to be strong.”

Big Bang Theory Cast Sticks Together
Although a few outlets are reporting that CBS has renewed The Big Bang Theory for two more seasons, the truth is that the announcement is still premature, because the cast is hammering out final contract negotiations. Variety reports that Melissa Rauch and Mayim Bialik are paid sizably less than the rest of the cast, despite sharing about equal screen time at this point in the show's run. In a show of solidarity, the five original castmembers have agreed to take a pay cut to free up extra money so that Rauch and Bialik's salaries can approach parity. The two actresses currently make around $200,000/episode, compared to the $1 million/episode netted by the original 5 castmembers.

Grammer added, “I feel like if you told me I would be having a son, I would be like, ‘Yeah, I’m gonna be a parent — I get that.’ But when the doctor was like, ‘You’re gonna have a girl,’ I was like, ‘What? Who am I?’ It’s the craziest piece of information that changes who you are. It’s sweet.”

Beau Biden's Widow Dating Beau Biden's Brother

Beau passed away in May 2015, and Hunter has been separated from his wife Kathleen since October 2015. Hunter released the following statement: “Hallie and I are incredibly lucky to have found the love and support we have for each other in such a difficult time, and that’s been obvious to the people who love us most. We’ve been so lucky to have family and friends who have supported us every step of the way.”
And lest you think this is creating tons of family dramz, Joe Biden also released a statement: “We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness. They have mine and Jill’s full and complete support and we are happy for them.”
I know this probably seems kind of weird, but in the olden days, it was pretty common for a widow to marry one of her late husband's brothers, so I'll file this under "not so scandalous."

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Thin or Really Thin
This comedic actor hails from a famous acting family. His wife is a successful actress, but her career has not been nearly as big as his.
At one of the Oscar parties, two people were talking about the fact that they hadn’t seen her in a while.
"The first one asked, “How is she?” The second one said, “What do you mean?” The first one said, “You know what I mean. Is she thin? Or is she REALLY thin?” The second one said, “Oh, yeah, THAT. She’s REALLY thin.” The first one said, “Well, he must be happy!”"
Supposedly, she has this horrible eating disorder and a lot of it seems to be because [her husband] is always trying to control what she eats and how much she eats.

Emma Watson Doesn't Do Selfies
Emma Watson is on the cover of Vanity Fair's March 2017 issue. Here are some highlights from the accompanying interview:
On reading:
Books gave me a way to connect with my father. Some of my most precious and treasured moments . . .(tears up) I just remember him reading to me before bed and how he used to do all the different voices. I grew up on film sets, and books were my connection to the outside world. They were my connection to my friends back at school because if I was reading what they were reading we’d have something in common. Later in life, they became an escape, a means of empowerment, a friend I could rely on.”
On taking a break after the Harry Potter movies:
“I’d walk down the red carpet and go into the bathroom. I had on so much makeup and these big, fluffy, full-on dresses. I’d put my hands on the sink and look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘Who is this?’ I didn’t connect with the person who was looking back at me, and that was a very unsettling feeling...I was finding this fame thing was getting to a point of no return. I sensed if this was something I was ever going to step away from it was now or never.”
On why she continues to make movies:
“I’ve been doing this since I was 10 or 11, and I’ve often thought, I’m so wrong for this job because I’m too serious; I’m a pain in the ass; I’m difficult; I don’t fit. But as I’ve got older, I’ve realized, No! Taking on those battles, the smaller ones and the bigger ones, is who I am.”
On selfies:
“For me, it’s the difference between being able to have a life and not. If someone takes a photograph of me and posts it, within two seconds they’ve created a marker of exactly where I am within 10 meters. They can see what I’m wearing and who I’m with. I just can’t give that tracking data. I’ll say, ‘I will sit here and answer every single Harry Potter fandom question you have but I just can’t do a picture’ I have to carefully pick and choose my moment to interact. When am I a celebrity sighting versus when am I going to make someone’s freakin’ week? Children I don’t say no to, for example.”
On why she won't talk about her personal life:
“I want to be consistent: I can’t talk about my boyfriend in an interview and then expect people not to take paparazzi pictures of me walking around outside my home. You can’t have it both ways. I’ve noticed, in Hollywood, who you’re dating gets tied up into your film promotion and becomes part of the performance and the circus. I would hate anyone that I were with to feel like they were in any way part of a show or an act.”

On reading:
Books gave me a way to connect with my father. Some of my most precious and treasured moments . . .(tears up) I just remember him reading to me before bed and how he used to do all the different voices. I grew up on film sets, and books were my connection to the outside world. They were my connection to my friends back at school because if I was reading what they were reading we’d have something in common. Later in life, they became an escape, a means of empowerment, a friend I could rely on.”
On taking a break after the Harry Potter movies:
“I’d walk down the red carpet and go into the bathroom. I had on so much makeup and these big, fluffy, full-on dresses. I’d put my hands on the sink and look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘Who is this?’ I didn’t connect with the person who was looking back at me, and that was a very unsettling feeling...I was finding this fame thing was getting to a point of no return. I sensed if this was something I was ever going to step away from it was now or never.”
On why she continues to make movies:
“I’ve been doing this since I was 10 or 11, and I’ve often thought, I’m so wrong for this job because I’m too serious; I’m a pain in the ass; I’m difficult; I don’t fit. But as I’ve got older, I’ve realized, No! Taking on those battles, the smaller ones and the bigger ones, is who I am.”

Media Take Out Blind Item - Hip Hop Superstar is Hooked
MediaTakeOut.com just heard a story that HURT OUR HEART – and it’s about one of the GREATS from hip hop. We’re talking an “A” level rapper from the 2000s era.
According to a TOP SNITCH, one of our favorite rappers (and probably yours too) is hooked on HEROIN.
An insider from the rapper’s label told MediaTakeOut.com, “[Rapper] is hooked on heroin. He’s on it constantly. It’s gotten so bad that the veins on his arm collapsed.”
How did it happen that one of hip hop’s GREATS is now a HEROIN addict? The insider explained, “People don’t understand that ‘lean’ really is just watered down heroin that you drink. After a while you get a tolerance for lean and you need something stronger, like heroin.”
And the rapper was KNOWN for carrying lean around in his cup.
The insider added, “He’s overdosed a bunch of times [which are] seizures. If he doesn’t get into rehab now he’s going to die.”
Prayers go out to dude.

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Still Talking About That Guest Arc
These two actresses starred together on a popular TV series that ran until the early aughts. They have remained such close friends since then that they were each other’s “dates” to the Academy Awards last night.
When someone at an after-party saw them, they started swapping stories about what really happened on the set of their show years ago.
Consistent with the libidinous theme of the show, the leading man was a handsome actor who bedded young actresses on set at a frantic pace.
There was this one exotic-looking dark-haired actress who did a guest arc on the show. You know her because she has had starring or regular roles in at least three other television series since that show ended.
At that time, she had a big crush on the actor. They had a scene together in bed. While those scenes are normally choreographed in a way to keep that keeps the performers comfortable… our actress got a little too comfortable!
"She had her underwear on when the scene started but she wanted him so badly that she actually took them off under the sheets so that she could really have sex with him, right there on set, with the cameras rolling! The censors had no idea that they were pretty much showing porn in prime time!"

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Kinda Funny Kinda Creepy
This well-known single celebrity sometimes goes without acting for several years at a time, focusing on his music instead.
He was not nominated for anything last night, but, like many in the industry, was out and about in Hollywood last night. One of our sources was with her squad when she ran into him outside one of the major after parties.
"We ran into him outside [one of the parties]. He was [not formally dressed] so I don’t know if he was planning on going in or what. I’ve met him a few times and he’s normally a little weird, but last night he was even weirder. He told us that he had been rolling on molly for the past couple of hours. He had this big grin on his face which was kinda funny and kinda creepy at the same time. He wanted to hug me and all my girlfriends."

Work Out's Jackie Warner Pulls a Tiger Woods
Golf stars aren't the only ones who drive on Ambien! Remember that Bravo show Work Out from a few years back? Well, TMZ reports that the show's star and gym owner Jackie Warner was just arrested for felony assault with a deadly weapon. You see, Jackie crashed her car into a pole in West Hollywood on Friday night, and when cops arrived, she threw her car into reverse and almost took out a deputy who was on foot. Hence the assault with a deadly weapon. I guess Ambien should add "trying to run over police officers" to its list of side effects. Oh, and she wasn't wearing pants when she was arrested.
