RIHANNA WANTS WHAT JUSTIN BIEBER GOT

Speaking of that lavish Indian wedding, Rihanna is NOT thrilled that she was paid $4 million LESS than Justin Bieber to perform. While Rihanna performed at a pre-wedding party in early May, earning $8 million for her work, (it was her first non Super Bowl performance in 8 years!) Justin recently earned $12 million to perform at the wedding kickoff. According to my source, Rihanna is livid over the snub, and is hoping to get another $4 million from the wedding planners to ease her pain…

DO JUSTIN AND HAILEY BIEBER LACK TOGETHERNESS?

We’ve heard that when Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey dress up to go out at night they often look like they are going to entirely different places. This Saturday night photo of the Biebers fully illustrates that observation. Justin and his pregnant wife joined friends for dinner at the 4 Charles Prime Rib supper club in New York. Hailey looks appropriately glamorous in white satin, while Justin looks like he’s going fishing somewhere in the suburbs. And of course he tops it off with that ever-present baseball cap. Looks like they don’t collaborate fashion-wise before leaving home…

HAILEY BIEBER ISN’T TAKING ANY CHANCES

Gorgeous expectant mom Hailey Bieber is looking for a live-in nanny – but NO attractive females need to apply! According to my source, Hailey is looking for 24/7 help and plans on hiring one live-in helper, as well as others to rotate on 8 hour shifts to help her and Justin with their new baby. Her main criteria is: no younger beauties who might catch her husband Justin Bieber’s eye! Hailey has reached out to some celebrity pals for recommendations and was quite upfront about what she wanted and didn’t want, telling her friends she IS open to grandmother types and gay men…

HERE’S MORE OF WHAT WE KNOW

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez dominated the headlines this week as rumors swirl that their marriage is dunzo.  Here’s what we know.  The couple are going through a rough patch,mostly due to their different spending habits.  SHE likes like live large, but he’s more frugal and finds her excessive spending a turn-off.  In J. Lo’s defense, she is worth more than Ben, so she understandably finds it insulting that he would tell her how to spend HER money. My source says the one thing the both of them have in common is they’re quick to react, BUT do love one another, so while anything is possible, it’s most likely their marriage will stay intact, considering they are in counseling.

Kansas City Chiefs’ Harrison Butker didn’t win any female or gay fans this week thanks to a commencement address where he basically voiced his controversial opinions against the LGTBQ community and women’s rights.  Making it worse he quoted Taylor Swift in the address, referring to her as his teammate Travis Kelce’s girlfriend.  Here’s what we know.  Taylor was PISSED that he dared say her name in such a hate filled speech and she told Travis under no circumstances will she ever be photographed anywhere near him.  She also made it be known to the powers that be on the team that she doesn’t feel comfortable publicly supporting the team if it has a misogynistic homophobe in its ranks.  My NFL source predicts Harrison will be traded, but the question is, who will want him?

Justin and Hailey Bieber made headlines when they announced they’re expecting their first child together. They kept the news a secret from family and closest friends, but now we’re hearing that Justin has been taking parenting classes with a therapist who visits his home three times a week to help him cope with the demands of being a first time dad. My source says he’s determined to do everything RIGHT and get his unpredictable mood swings under control before the baby arrives.

The Sex and the City spinoff, And Just Like That recently started filming its third season in New York City and we can tell you that Kim Cattrall will definitely appear again in another cameo and this time she will share the screen with a cast member -but it won’t be Sarah Jessica Parker.  We are hearing that Kim’s character Samantha Jones is living in Europe and will be visited by one of the cast, and the scene will take place there.  Producers haven’t decided if it’s going to be Cynthia Nixon or Kristen Davis, but it’s going to happen.

And as usual, what’s a week without a piece of Donald Trump gossip! Donald’s youngest son, Barron made headlines when he was announced to be a delegate at the upcoming Republican national convention, only to have his mom Melania publicly decline the invitation the next day, citing a “scheduling conflict.” This makes no sense, since Barron would be expected to be at the convention when his father is nominated to be president, anyway.  We heard that Donald actually gave the okay to announce Barron as a delegate, but Melania immediately nixed it. My well-placed source says that it was a screaming match unlike any other, as Melania threatened to boycott the convention herself if Donald forced the issue of having Barron as a delegate. Needless to say she won.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The Met Gala is Monday, May 6 and we just heard this EXCLUSIVE tidbit. We previously reported Kim Kardashian was wearing Balenciaga to the event which makes sense since she IS the brand’s ambassador. Well Kim pulled a fast one and decided she wanted to go in a different direction so she scrapped her original outfit and is now wearing something else and not Balenciaga. Remember where you read this, as it should send waves through the fashion world since since Kim and Balenciaga are in business together and everyone expects her to wear the label on fashion’s biggest night.

President Joe Biden made news this week when he revealed he would be willing to debate Donald Trump in their race for the White House. Here’s what we just heard. This presidential debate might be unlike any other in the our nation’s history as the plan is for Biden and Trump to each choose one moderator to ask the questions with NOTHING off-limits. While countless details still need to be worked out, including the date and location, expect a debate unlike any other. My source says Trump has yet to agree to this arrangement since he’s terrified of answering questions from the seemingly liberal moderator the Biden campaign will likely select.

Justin Bieber made headlines after posting selfies of him crying and then he was spotted hanging out in Kauai, Hawaii. Here’s what we know. Justin is blaming a lot of his emotional issues on the pressures and temptations of living in Los Angeles, so he and his wife Hailey Bieber flew to Hawaii to look at homes. They’re planning to unload their sprawling Beverly Park estate, put down roots in Hawaii, and then buy a pied a terre in Los Angeles when they need to be in town for work. They love the island of Kauai, but also are looking at Maui and the Big Island.

Britney Spears made headlines as well- for numerous reasons including fears about her financial situation, settling her lawsuit with her father, and finalizing her divorce from ex-husband Sam Asghari. We know this… Britney’s mom Lynne is more involved behind the scenes than she’s letting on, and while she’s not micromanaging Britney or her finances, she is monitoring the situation and has safety nets in place just in case Britney spirals out of control. My source says that this time around if the consensus is that Britney needs a conservatorship it will be Lynne who is in charge.

And finally this. Travis Kelce inked a two-year deal with his team the Kansas City Chiefs making him the HIGHEST paid tight end in the NFL. While his $34.25 million contract is already public knowledge, here’s something we know that hasn’t been publicized. The deal also includes a secret bonus of $100,000 per regular season game, $250,000 for playoff games and a whopping $500,000 for the Super Bowl if his girlfriend (and likely soon-to-be fiance) Taylor Swift attends. My source say that Taylor’s presence at games brings in MILLIONS in additional revenue so that’s why Travis is getting the bonuses when she attends.

JUSTIN BIEBER IS MISSING IN ACTION

We are sharing this as a rumor and not fact, so keep that in mind when reading. The word around some parts of town is that Justin Bieber might have checked himself into a mental health facility. Justin hasn’t been seen in weeks, and while the spin is that he’s working on new music, in the past when he was busy in the studio, he would surface somewhere. Justin has been going through a sad time – a friend calls it an “early midlife crisis.” We have absolutely no proof he’s in a facility and are just sharing what we’ve heard, so we will keep you posted if we find out more. Whatever is going on, we certainly hope he gets better soon.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Hi Readers,
We are going to try something new. As a one-woman operation, writing this website is a time-consuming task. We hear a lot of great gossip but don’t have the staff and resources of other websites like TMZ, so they occasionally break the story first. That doesn’t mean we don’t have some exclusive details, so we are going to call this weekly feature, HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW. As the title implies, we will update you on what we know about items you might read elsewhere. Just because we didn’t write it first, doesn’t mean we don’t have some good tea to share! So here we go:

Everyone is talking about Tish Cyrus stealing her husband Dominic (Prison Break) Purcell from her daughter, Noah. Here’s what we know… Noah WAS casually dating Dominic before Tish hooked up with him, but the gals were already estranged before the betrayal. Noah and her mom Tish have been on the outs over Billy Ray Cyrus. Noah is a daddy’s girl and took his side when Tish finally pulled the plug on the marriage. On the other hand, Noah’s big sister Miley sided with her mom, and is now estranged from Billy Ray…

Kayne West is back to posting direct pleas to his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian on social media. His latest one urged her to take their kids out of what he calls “system school” (which some took to be leaning into antisemitism.) We DO know that Kim called a meeting with lawyers since the social media post apparently violated their custody agreement by naming the school where the kids are enrolled. Huge safety concern for Kim – so she’s using this an ammunition to get full custody. We will keep you posted.

Finally, Stephen Baldwin raised concerns about the state of his daughter Hailey’s marriage to Justin Bieber when he asked fans and his social media followers to pray for the couple. Here’s what we know: We already told you the marriage was in trouble and that the couple were in therapy and spending time apart. This time we beat the other websites in revealing this, so we will say it again, WE TOLD YA SO!

THE TRUTH ABOUT HAILEY AND JUSTIN BIEBER’S MARRIAGE

As rumors swirl that their marriage is on the rocks, here’s what we are hearing about Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey:  While it’s true they’ve been going through a rough patch – which our source attributes to Justin’s mood swings and depression – they ARE  in therapy working on their relationship. As part of their treatment they’ve been spending time APART with Hailey holed up in their Beverly Hills mansion, and Justin spending more time at their home outside of Palm Springs at the posh development, The Madison Club. When they are together it’s for events like the Super Bowl. While this can change on a dime, for now our source predicts they will both fight to save their marriage…

CAN JUSTIN BIEBER DO FOR HOCKEY WHAT TAYLOR SWIFT DID FOR FOOTBALL?

We’re not sure, but that’s what the NHL is hoping for. Taylor’s constant presence at games (where she’s rooting for her boyfriend, Kansas City Chief’s Travis Kelce) has brought in millions of new viewers, even shattering TV ratings for the Super Bowl. The National Hockey League took notice and that’s why they tapped Canadian born lifelong hockey fan Justin to design their recent All Star uniforms. However, that’s only the beginning. Justin is being encouraged to become a very public investor in a team and bring his celebrity pals to games in hopes of creating the Taylor effect and make the sport more popular.

JUSTIN BIEBER: INSPIRED BY GEORGE MICHAEL

Justin Bieber is hoping to make his musical comeback and he’s relying on his wife Hailey and her famous girlfriends to help propel him back to the top. Justin released his last album in 2021 and postponed his accompanying tour in 2022. He’s taken a self imposed hiatus since then, but now he’s getting ready to drop a new album and wants Hailey and some of her fellow model friends like Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid to appear in the video. Justin hopes to mimic George Michael‘s Freedom! music video which featured supermodels such as Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell. He’s hoping lightning strikes twice and a sexy video with Hailey and her model friends will hit number one, just like it did for George over 30 years ago.
