Justin Bieber’s performance during weekend two of Coachella was one of the biggest stories of the week, as the pop star redeemed himself after a lackluster weekend one show. Here’s what we know.  Justin knocked it out of the ballpark because he’s getting ready to announce he’s going on tour.  Unlike his last tour (which he cut short) this time around, Justin is focusing on smaller more intimate venues that seat under 1000 people.  My source says the details are being ironed out now ,and you can also expect his biggest fan, Billie Eilish to join him onstage during some of the shows, just like her surprise appearance at Coachella.

The arrest of rapper D4VD in the murder of Celeste Rivas months and months after her body was found in the trunk of his automobile, was also big news and we can tell you this.  It took SO long for the arrest (much to the chagrin of many) because prosecutors wanted to get all of their ducks in a row.  As of now, if a deal isn’t reached soon, prosecutors plan to make it a death penalty case.  We are hearing that any deal would include at least 40 years behind bars.

The unexpected death of handsome actor Patrick Muldoon at 57 made headlines.  We can tell you this.  Patrick, who found fame on both Melrose Place and Days of Our Lives, was in secret talks to join the still unannounced revamp of Melrose Place.  My source says that the nighttime drama from the 1990’s is coming back with most of the original cast  –  including Heather Locklear. Patrick was set to resume his role, and his death has rattled the cast who recently got together for a People magazine interview.

Alysa Liu was in the news for debuting in Stars on Ice.  As we previously reported, the Olympic gold medalist is so down to earth she didn’t ask for any special treatment while on tour.  Here’s the latest gossip on her.  Alysa won gold by skating to Donna Summer’s MacArthur Park and now she’s secretly putting together her next competition routine for when she resumes competing after the tour ends. This time she ‘ll be skating to ABBA.  Downloads of Donna Summer soared after her Olympic performance, so it’s expected that she will do the same thing for ABBA’s music and introduce an entire younger generation to the pop disco group.

Another week of insanity revolving around Donald Trump and his war with Iran.  Our well placed Washington D.C. source blabs that behind closed doors there’s a movement to persuade Trump to spend more time in Palm Beach, Florida and less time at the White House.  Some of his closest advisers are secretly planning events for him to attend in Florida as a distraction – they fear he’s making too many missteps with the war.  There’s even a plan being hatched to claim the White House is undergoing mold remediation and that’s why Trump is staying at Mar-A-Lago.  As my source explains, Trump is calmer in Florida and he’s more distracted there as well, so it’s easier for his team to work around him and get things done.

Katie Holmes and her Dawson’s Creek costar and former boyfriend Joshua Jackson made headlines when she liked comments on social media that fans posted about wanting them to rekindle their relationship.  We can tell you this.  The two are both currently single and have actually been talking, so don’t be too surprised if they do wind up reconnecting.  As my source explains, they have both have had their share of failed romances and are at the age where they’re looking for something easy and familiar.  Long story short, they’re not a couple yet, but insiders are predicting it could happen sooner than later since the sparks between them are still there.

Andy Cohen calling fellow podcaster Joe Rogan a F***ING IDIOT because Joe endorsed former reality star Spencer Pratt for mayor of Los Angeles made the news and we can tell you this.  The two have never been friends but try to be cordial. However, Andy’s outburst has launched a war.  Andy now has informed his Bravo celebrities that they’re NOT to appear on Joe’s podcast!  Andy is also planning to make his own endorsement for LA Mayor.  Andy faults Rogan for endorsing Trump for president and helping him win the election, and his latest endorsement of Spencer was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
