Pamela Anderson Refuses To Apologize For Saying Harvey Weinstein Accusers "Knew What They Were Getting Themselves Into"

Posted on Fri Dec 1st, 2017 10:45am PDT       By X17 Staff


She shouldn't have touched this one.

Pamela Anderson is getting a lot of backlash over her comments about Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassment scandal, which she made during an appearance on Megyn Kelly Today, but she stands by what she said!

A lot of people think she was "victim blaming" by insinuating that his accusers should never met with him privately in the first place.

"When I came to Hollywood, of course I had a lot of offers to do private auditions and things that made absolutely no sense. [It’s] just common sense: Don’t go into a hotel room alone. If someone answers the door in a bathrobe, leave. These [are] things that are common sense. … It was common knowledge that certain producers or certain people in Hollywood are people to avoid, privately. You know what you’re getting into if you’re going into a hotel room alone," she said during the sit-down.

Instead, the actress said the women should have brought along their assistants for protection. “I just think there’s easy ways to remedy that. That’s not a good excuse," she added.

She heard the criticism, and responded to it in a lengthy Instagram post. Here's what she wrote:
    Re- My interview on #todayshow #megynkelly. Somebody had to say this. Please don’t worry. Refer people to my blog and long standing commitment to defending the vulnerable. We have the power to be safe and free by using common sense. My message is consistent throughout- I'm a deep thinker / I have a unique perspective. and consequence is part of my life. This is great. I am also an advocate for men. I just don't agree with it all. Backlash is good. - I like this. My position is not 'problematic' because I doesn't fall in line with the common herd or trend. I'm trying to tell women as a survivor of childhood abuse myself - It is important to be proactive as an adult who knows better - in defending themselves. Don't get in cars with strangers #rideresponsibly- Don't go to Hotel rooms alone for an audition. Women are powerful and smart and we can use all our charms in more positive ways. I think it’s very smart to be proactive. And I stand by what I say. My mother taught me - protect yourself. Especially with my ‘image’’ - she and I were worried it could give people wrong Impression. I am not an easy girl and have not had as many partners people might think. I believe in love and commitment and common sense. This is why I'm usually married. It is how I feel safe and protected in a sexual relationship. .A monogamous lover is the best and most brave lover there is. I only want intimate sexual experiences - where I can be free to give my wildest fantasies to someone who loves me and never have used sex as a weapon. It's just too easy. #bestrong #staysafe #noblame @todayshow #solutions #nodrama."

We think everyone is overreacting, she was allowed to give her opinion!

Posted on Fri Dec 1st, 2017 9:30am PDT       By X17 Staff


She seems like an old pro!

Prince Harry and fiancee Meghan Markle made their first joint royal appearance today at the Terrence Higgins Trust World AIDS Day charity fair in Nottingham, and the soon-to-be Duchess was a total natural as she worked the crowd and chatted with people that had waited hours to get their first glimpse of her.

The former Suits actress is already making a name for herself as a global fashion icon, and she looked effortlessly stunning in a navy Mackage coat, a tan Joseph midi skirt, Kurt Geiger boots and a Wolford turtleneck. How cute is it that she and her man color coordinated their outfits?!

Proving that they're modernizing the monarchy, the couple held hands and were very affectionate, which we never see from William and Kate.

It's Meghan mania in the UK!

 

Kim And Kanye Make A Rare Appearance Together At Chrissy Teigen's Pan-Am Birthday Bash

Posted on Fri Dec 1st, 2017 8:15am PDT       By X17 Staff


We were starting to think they were leading separate lives!

Kim and Kanye haven't been seen in public together too much in recent months, but that changed last night when they hit Chrissy Teigen's Pan-Am birthday party. The reality star looked gorgeous with her teased blonde 'do and retro peach dress, and her rapper hubby couldn't keep his eyes off of her!

The Sports Illustrated stunner and husband John Legend also looked the part in their outfits, and we've gotta hand it to the model for coming up with such an original theme for her bash! Party guests were supplied with fake cigarettes and Jackie-O magazine covers, and the whole thing took place on a fake airliner. How cool!

Kimmy K gave us a glimpse inside on her Snapchat, and we've gotta say, 'Ye isn't the best plus one! He might be happy on the inside, but he seems pretty bored and like he'd rather be at the studio making music!

Selena Gomez Thanks BFF Kidney Donor For Saving Her Life While Accepting Billboard's Woman Of The Year Award

Posted on Fri Dec 1st, 2017 8:12am PDT       By X17 Staff


Selena Gomez broke down while thanking her best friend and kidney donor Francia Raisa who "saved [her] life," as the singer accepted the Woman of the Year award at the Billboard Women In Music event Thursday night in Los Angeles.

The bustier-clad, black leather pants-wearing blonde got teary-eyed as she said, "To be honest, I think Francia should be getting this award because she saved my life." She went on to say, "Honestly, I couldn’t be more grateful for the position I’ve been given in my career from 7 to 14 to now. I want people to know that I respect the platform that I have so deeply because I knew that I wanted to be a part of something great and I wanted people to feel great because I love people."

She loves people and people love her! The social media queen and Bieber babe has had a busy year -- from her kidney transplant over the summer to releasing her new single "Wolves" and performing at the American Music Awards last month -- and she's definitely come out as a survivor. In fact, she thanked other women for inspiring her and for inspiring all women in the moment of girl power: "How crucial it is that these voices that are being heard are being heard for the first time -- it's so great and I'm so grateful for the older women who have lifted us up."

Selena said she's not sure how she'll ever repay all the support she's gotten from her friends and from fellow women in the industry but she had one idea: "Maybe I'll make an epic album next year for you guys and everyone else." We like that idea!

 

What Happened To The Hot, Fashionable Justin Bieber?! And Why Does He Still Think Sagging Is Cool?

Posted on Thu Nov 30th, 2017 2:35pm PDT       By X17 Staff


No, seriously... WTF!

We caught Justin Bieber hitting Starbucks and grabbing a solo sushi lunch today in Beverly Hills, and we couldn't believe our eyes, but not in a good way. What has happened to his looks and style?! They both seem to have gone down the tubes!

The singer was wearing baggy Adidas track pants and a 'Big League Fear of God' jersey, and he's starting to resemble one of those creepy guys that hangs around the gas station in a small town.

We guess it doesn't really matter what we think because he's got his girl Selena Gomez back, but still! It's time for a haircut, a meeting with the swagger coach, and a refresher course on how to dress. He's turning into his dad Jeremy right before our very eyes, and whereas we always thought we'd have terminal Bieber fever, we're now thinking it's definitely in remission.

Also, sagging is so 90s! JB flashed his tush and his tighty whities as he hopped into his ride, and we're just all around embarrassed for him!

 

Selena Gomez Opens Up About Her Split With The Weeknd And Reconciling With Justin Bieber

Posted on Thu Nov 30th, 2017 1:20pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Does she have a new song coming out? It's weird that she's being so candid.

Selena Gomez was named Billboard's 2017 Woman of the Year, and the songstress really opened up about her split from The Weeknd and subsequent reconciliation with Justin Bieber in the cover story interview.

A lot of people assumed she ditched the Starboy for JB and he was pissed about it, but she swears that's not the case. In fact, she claims it was friendly breakup!

"Something that I’m really proud of is that there’s such a true friendship [between us]. I truly have never experienced anything like that in my life. We ended it as best friends, and it was genuinely about encouraging and caring [for each other], and that was pretty remarkable for me," she confessed.

So how does she explain her rekindled relationship with The Biebs?

"I’m 25. I’m not 18, or 19, or 20. I cherish people who have really impacted my life. So maybe before, it could have been forcing something that wasn’t right. But that doesn’t mean caring for someone ever goes away," she revealed.

The brunette beauty says that philosophy goes for "people in general," too.

“I mean, I grew up with Demi [Lovato]. Nick and Joe [Jonas] and Miley [Cyrus] — we’ve gone through seasons in our lives. I don’t think it’s as serious as people make things out to be half the time. It’s just my life. I grew up with all of these people, and it’s so cool to see where everybody is. It comes back to the idea of me remaining full. I think a true representation of love is beyond just yourself. … The littlest things are impactful," she added.

She just needs to accept the fact she's got terminal Bieber fever!

 

Scott Disick Goes Jewelry Shopping Amid Reports He's Ready To Propose To Girlfriend Sofia Richie

Posted on Thu Nov 30th, 2017 12:10pm PDT       By X17 Staff


Is he going to put a ring on it?!

Scott Disick hit up Polachek's jewelry store in Calabasas yesterday and spent some serious time browsing the goods, and it makes us wonder if those rumors that he's getting ready to propose to Sofia Richie are true?

Kourtney Kardashian's baby daddy and Lionel Richie's daughter are reportedly planning on shacking up, so getting married would be the logical next step... according to them, at least. Her famous father and sister are trying desperately to get her to pump the breaks, though.

"Lionel told Sofia to wait a little longer and not to move in. Nicole flat-out told her sister ‘You’re making a big mistake.’ They [both feel] it’s way too soon to move in with him," a source dished to Life & Style.

The Lord sounds thrilled with the relationship, and is happy to be rid of the overbearing K clan.

"Kourtney and the Kardashians always tried to control Scott, unlike Sofia, who gives him the freedom he needs and lets him be himself. Scott feels that Sofia is the only person who understands him," the source added.

Getting married would undoubtedly sever his relationship with the Kardashian family, which is maybe why he's also not afraid to write a tell-all! In Touch reports that LD is bitter over the way his struggles were used as plot lines on KUWTK, and could grab a huge pay day if he spilled all their dirty secrets!

“Scott’s threatened to write a tell-all book before, but Kourtney has always talked him out of it. Now that he’s not as involved with her or the family, a huge payday from a publisher sounds better than ever," a source told the mag.

So what would be in it?

"Scott will reveal details about her [Kourtney's] relationship with Justin and other secret boy toys. Kourtney told Scott about Kim and Kanye’s volatile marriage, and how they lead separate lives. Scott knows so many personal details about the Kardashians. Everything from their plastic surgery secrets to how much Kris really drinks. Scott knows [the truth] about Kanye’s mental health," the source added.

Anything he does they're going to have a problem with, so he might as well look out for himself!

 

Jay-Z Admits Listening To Lemonade After Cheating On Beyonce Was "Very Uncomfortable"

Posted on Thu Nov 30th, 2017 11:20am PDT       By X17 Staff


Yeahhh... ya think?!

Jay-Z hinted at being unfaithful to Beyonce on his new album 4:44, but in a new interview with T: The New York Times Style Magazine, he flat out admits to cheating, and says that listening to his wife's Lemonade album was tough as they went through the work of repairing their marriage.

"You know, most people walk away, and like divorce rate is like 50 percent or something ’cause most people can’t see themselves. The hardest thing is seeing pain on someone’s face that you caused, and then having to deal with yourself. So, you know, most people don’t want to do that. You don’t want to look inside yourself. And so you walk away," he explained.

The two decided to go to therapy, and the rapper learned a lot about himself in the process.

“I grew so much from the experience. But I think the most important thing I got is that everything is connected. Every emotion is connected and it comes from somewhere. And just being aware of it. Being aware of it in everyday life puts you at such a … you’re at such an advantage. If not, you go into survival mode, and when you go into survival mode what happen? You shut down all emotions. So even with women, you gonna shut down emotionally, so you can’t connect [because of the way you feel about yourself]. In my case, like it’s, it’s deep. And then all the things happen from there: infidelity …” he confessed.

They both channeled their complex feelings into their music, and used it to heal their relationship, despite it being "very, very uncomfortable."

"We were using our art almost like a therapy session. We were sitting in the eye of that hurricane. The best place is right in the middle of the pain. And that’s where we were sitting. And it was uncomfortable. And we had a lot of conversations. You know. [I was] really proud of the music she made, and she was really proud of the art I released. And, you know, at the end of the day we really have a healthy respect for one another’s craft. I think she’s amazing," he gushed.

We're glad hip hop's power couple didn't throw in the towel!
