Broke?

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Travis Kelce and his brother Jason made headlines this week with their $100 million podcast deal with Amazon, but we just heard, however, that their payday will substantially INCREASE if they persuade Travis’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, to appear on the show. No surprise there. Taylor’s presence at NFL games last season pulled in tons of new viewers, and the thinking behind the bonus incentive is that Taylor can do the same for the podcast.

Justin Theroux was talked about this week when we heard about his engagement to actress Nicole Bloom. We know this: Before Justin and Nicole announced their engagement, he reached out to his former wife, Jennifer Aniston, and broke the news to her himself. According to my well placed source, Justin and Jen remain good friends even though their marriage didn’t last, and that’s why he gave her the heads up. She is genuinely happy that he’s found someone to share his life with, so don’t fall for the soon-to-be tabloid stories claiming she’s distraught. She’s not!

This week Armie Hammer was all over the news when he revealed he was selling his beloved truck because he couldn’t afford the gas. Loyal readers will remember we were the first to report about his financial struggles. We just heard this interesting update: Now that Armie has a regular car, he’s planning to make some money as an Uber driver! As shocking as that sounds, remember, Armie previously held a job selling timeshares. According to my source, Arnie’s incredibly wealthy family isn’t helping him, so he’s determined to prove to them, and to the world, that he doesn’t need their financial support.

Who is surprised that narcissistic Donald Trump was in the news yet again for more bad behavior? This time Donald made headlines for his inappropriate conduct at Arlington National Cemetery where he turned a solemn moment into a manufactured political stunt. Donald may not be too happy to find out what we just heard. One of the families of the soldiers buried there is gearing up to sue him and his campaign for the unauthorized photography of the grave. That is strictly for prohibited by national law.

In unpleasant news, Dancing With The Stars regular Artem Chigvintsev made headlines when he was arrested and charged with domestic violence and spousal abuse. Not a fun subject to gossip about, but nonetheless here’s what we know. The argument between Artem and his wife (and assumed victim) Nikki Garcia aka Nikki Bella that started the incident was over an infidelity. Our source didn’t know who accused who of cheating, but that was rumored to be what caused the situation to escalate and reportedly get physical.

And finally our gal Kamala Harris made the news for making news! She granted her first interview since becoming the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate to CNN and we just heard this. She’s lining up more sit-downs with other networks, including the conservative FOX News. Expect to see her upcoming interviews after the September presidential debate.

Armie Hammer Broke? We Told Ya So!

WE TOLD YA SO!

Back on August 8, we told you that Armie Hammer was having some financial difficulties and was considering doing Onlyfans to make some much-needed cash. Well today, Armie confirmed at least part of our scoop. We were the first one to reveal his financial difficulties, and while Armie did not blab about his Onlyfans plan, he did admit to being strapped for cash and forced to sell his gas guzzling vehicle. (See link below) According to my well-informed source, Armie is looking for manual labor jobs to supplement his income until his Hollywood career resumes. As my source puts it, he likes working with his hands.

Broke? Fake! Melissa Gorga Real Estate The Real Housewives of New Jersey

MELISSA GORGA: ANOTHER FAKE NEW JERSEY HOUSEWIFE !

We just had to laugh when we learned that Melissa and Joe Gorga are too broke to make their mortgage payments and THAT’S why they just put their New Jersey mcmansion up for sale for 3.8 million. It seems like all these Real Housewives of New Jersey are anything but real. According to Radaronline, Melissa and Joe were living in a modest $500,000 house with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths before she was cast on the show. Joe had built the gaudy mansion on spec, hoping to find a buyer. As a builder, he got an interest free loan for a certain period of time until he sold the house. When his wife was cast on Housewives, they decided to move into the big house so they’d look wealthier than they are. And they ran up a LOT of bills keeping up the image. Now the interest free period on the loan is over and they can’t afford the huge payments so they have to sell. We wonder if exposure on the show will make the house sell faster…

Broke? Sparkle Whitney Houston

WHITNEY HOUSTON MAY BE BROKE BUT SHE’S FILMING A MOVIE

Whitney Houston’s financial status remains a mystery despite RadarOnline’s claims that she’s dead broke. Back in 2006 she was accused of being broke, denied it, and then held a giant garage sale and unloaded all her touring stuff collected through the years. Whitney IS a big spender and drugs are not cheap either. But she’s been through rehab and Whitney is filming “Sparkle” with Jordin Sparks – she plays Jordin’s stage mother. It’s a remake of the 70’s movie starring Irene Cara and Lonette McKee about a 60’s girl group in Detroit. Her people deny that Whitney is hurting money-wise, but we’ve heard that before. Hopefully her new film will set her on the right path.

Anne Heche Broke? Money Real Estate

ANNE HECHE DOESN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT SHE WANTS

phpThumb_generated_#5heche

Maybe Anne Heche WASN”T exaggerating last year when she claimed she was nearly broke and couldn’t afford to pay $15000 a month to her exhusband Coley Laffoon for spousal and child support. Since then she had a baby named Atlas with her new boyfriend James Tupper and her series “Men in Trees” was cancelled. She started appearing on “Hung” but money problems still haunt her. Recently she tried to purchase a two million dollar house in Hancock Park (where she once lived with Ellen Degeneres) but her loan was not approved and it fell out of escrow. She didn’t come up with the necessary cash for a huge down payment, so she lost it.

Broke? Married Ruben Studdard

RUBEN STUDDARD'S BRIDE MIGHT BE HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS

Ruben Studdard’s new bride is freaked out by the news that her American Idol seems to have serious financial problems. Ruben, the second Idol winner in 2003, and his girlfriend Surata Zuri McCants met at a CD signing at Wal-Mart in 2006. He followed her all over the store until he got a date. They’ve barely been married for two months and it’s just been revealed that he owes back taxes and has liens on several properties. Ruben has no record contract at this time and it’s not known if he has the money to pay the nearly $200,000 in back taxes. Surata might be wondering what she’s gotten herself into.
