Hailey Bieber is leaning into mom life!

The model shared her first social media post since welcoming her son Jack Blues with her husband Justin Bieber, and it seems like she’s truly enjoying her new role!

Taking to her Instagram Story on Monday — just a few days after JB announced the birth of the baby boy — the 27-year-old posted a video of herself watching the 1988 film The Land Before Time. And on the screen was a scene that really hinted at how she’s feeling! It featured a baby dinosaur hatching out of an egg with a big smile. Just like her little baby boy just hatched! Aww!!

Tori Spelling and Brian Austin Green are opening up about their estrangement.

The mom of five stopped by Brian’s Oldish podcast on Monday, and the two really dove into the 18-year period between when Beverly Hills, 90210 wrapped and when they reconnected. Such a long hiatus for a friendship! We’re glad they reconnected before it was too late…

Related: Rose McGowan’s Biggest ‘Regret’ In Complicated Friendship With The Late Shannen Doherty

Thinking back to one of their final conversations around 2000 when the show ended, Tori explained:

“I remember our last conversation and the last thing we said to each other before those 18 years. I was crying. I remember crying that we were going to lose touch because we were so close. It was almost like going through a divorce or something.”

To Brian, the show ending didn’t mean they had to sever ties. But, amid her relationship with her ex-boyfriend and former co-star Vincent Young, he felt Tori withdrew:

“What I remember is going by Vincent’s house to see you multiple days after we wrapped and trying to keep a connection going. But it got to the point where I just never got that from you.”

And that’s not the extent of it! Years later during a “90210 DVD release party,” the distance continued as they were both with their respective partners at the time — Dean McDermott and Megan Fox:

“You were married to Dean and I was with Megan when we were still just dating — you guys got there and you never said hello to me once. I just kept missing you guys and then you were gone.”

Hmm. Is he implying their significant others didn’t want them hanging out either? Just how close were they?? Well, they dated in real life earlier in 90210’s run and Tori has been very vocal about her feelings toward BAG. So we can understand exes being a little wary…

Unfortunately neither reached out, so each felt the cold shoulder. Brian explained:

“It was just this thing of like, ‘She just doesn’t want to be my friend.’ I genuinely felt that way. I tried to visit you and I would call you. When that wasn’t reciprocated and so I gave up. I didn’t know what was going on in your life.”

Yikes! But it seems the distance predated Dean and Megan. We mentioned the Vincent Young of it all. And Tori squarely blames that relationship for her losing touch:

“On my part, I lost myself in that relationship [with Vincent] again as I had done previously in relationships. That relationship was not a good relationship for me and toward the end I got wrapped up and things weren’t good.”

And she wasn’t the only one who she felt was consumed by love! Tori said Brian’s relationship with ex Vanessa Marcil was a major part of why she took a step back from their friendship:

“That relationship was frustrating to see from a friend’s perspective who loves someone so much. To see what is going on and see how your friend is treated and not be OK with it.”

Shots fired! She continued that she knew she couldn’t step in:

“But also knowing that you can’t really say anything because the person has to go through their own experience and go on their journey.”

Tori added:

“I shied away from you because you weren’t a fan of [my] relationship [with Vincent]. You had a good working relationship with Vincent but I don’t think you felt like our personal relationship was something that was correct for me. My process was different and I would shy away from those that would really fight for me. I never stopped thinking about you and never stopped wanting to reach out and reconnect.”

Brian responded:

“I still showed up. I had come to terms with knowing that wasn’t a good relationship but you are my sister so there is no cut-off.”

So was it how they felt about each other’s partners? Or how the partners felt about their history and vibe together? Hmm…

Either way, we’re glad everyone is mature enough to get along again. You can listen to their full conversation (below):

Danielle Fishel has a scary health update.

On Monday’s episode of the Boy Meets World rewatch podcast Pod Meets World, the series alum revealed that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. But luckily, she caught it in the early stages:

“I was recently diagnosed with DCIS, which stands for ductal carcinoma in situ, which is a form of breast cancer. It is very, very, very early. It’s technically stage zero. To be specific, just because I like too much information all the time, I was diagnosed with high-grade DCIS with micro-invasion.”

Thank goodness she caught it so early!

Related: Olivia Munn Recalls What ‘Guardian Angel’ Cancer Doctor Told Her That Ultimately ‘Saved’ Her ‘Life’!

The 43-year-old noted that in addition to her husband Jensen Karp, her parents, and her brother, her co-hosts and fellow Boy Meets World alums Rider Strong and Will Friedle were “two of the first people I told the news to.” But she’s keeping a positive mindset:

“I’m going to be fine. I’m having surgery to remove it. I’m going to be on some follow-up treatment. I’ve had to make a lot of decisions over the last couple of days.”

We bet it’s been a whirlwind few days for her, but we applaud her for acting so quickly to stay on top of it! And the TV star urged listeners to do the same:

“The only reason I caught this cancer when it is still stage zero is because the day I got my text message that my yearly mammogram had come up, I made the appointment. They found it so, so, so early that I’m going to be fine. I hope it will encourage anyone to get in there. If you have to find out you have cancer, find out at stage zero if possible.”

Get your mammograms, ladies! They are life saving! Looking at the near future, Danielle told listeners there may be some changes to the podcast amid her treatment:

“I have some big decisions ahead of me about what I want to do for treatment. I don’t have all the answers yet … [But I] did want to let our dear listeners know. We’re going to try and have it not affect things, but [there are] possibilities we may have to put things on hold depending on what treatments I go through.”

Whatever she needs to do to get healthy! Rider called the news “mind boggling,” adding, “Right now, my wife and I know four people — four friends — who are dealing with breast cancer.”

It’s scary how common it is… That’s why mammograms are so important! Will added:

“For men, too, prostate exams and colonoscopies … don’t put them off.”

Seriously! Health is wealth! Speaking directly to Danielle, he added:

“We’re so glad you didn’t [put it off] because you are going to be fine. You might have some sucky days, but we’re here for you.”

We’re sending all of our strength and healing energy Danielle’s way! Share your support in the comments down below!

This It Ends With Us feud has a lot of fans asking… is Blake Lively secretly a mean girl??

There are obviously two sides to what’s going on with the movie. Some sources have claimed director Justin Baldoni was inappropriate or insensitive, others say Blake and hubby Ryan Reynolds threw their Hollywood weight around so she could get her way creatively. It’s messy and not at all clear…

But the more folks are digging, the more everyone is looking at Blake’s history. We mean, just look at that cringey interview where she insults a film journalist!

Related: Sony CEO Voices Support For Blake Lively — And Shades Justin Baldoni Amid Rift!

And of course a Blake deep dive wouldn’t be complete without looking at how she got along — and still gets along — with her co-stars from Gossip Girl! After all, they worked together for more than just a month or two, this was SIX YEARS! So how’s that going?

Well… after some digging we can tell you co-stars Penn BadgleyLeighton MeesterEd WestwickTaylor MomsenJessica Szohr, and Michelle Trachtenberg don’t follow her on Instagram. NO ONE wants to know what’s going on with Blake?! That’s a BIG cold shoulder from your former co-stars! In fact, the only Gossip Girl cast member we could find that still follows her is Chace Crawford! Wow!

We have heard in the past that Blake and Leighton, who played pals Serena and Blair on the show, didn’t get along in real life. Exec producer Joshua Safran confirmed to Vanity Fair back in 2017:

“Blake and Leighton were not friends.”

He said they were “friendly” on set, but that they were just two very different people. He said he remembers Blake being “very much in the moment” and that she “knows what’s happening”:

“You talk to Blake on a very contemporary level, and she would be like, ‘I’m doing this thing tonight. Have you been to this restaurant?'”

He said Leighton was the opposite, “very removed and very quiet, and, after her scenes were done, she would wander the stage.” Well, OK, they weren’t similar people. But like… they’re not even friendly enough for a polite follow all these years later? That seems like more than just not being besties IRL.

And for Blake to not be followed by anyone? (Apart from Chace, who frankly seems like the nicest person in the world?) It’s sus, no?

What do YOU think, Perezcious readers? Is Blake a mean girl? Are her former co-stars saying something with their silence??

Well, the highly anticipated Spice Girls reunion may not be happening after all, folks…

It’s been rumored for a while now that the fan favorite Brit girl band has been gearing up to make their united return — this time even including Victoria Beckham, who sat out a previous reunion in 2019. But it sounds like that plan may have gone to s**t as Geri Halliwell reportedly refuses to “share a stage” with Mel B! ANOTHER FEUD?!?

On Monday, an insider told DailyMail.com that Geri, AKA Ginger Spice, has backed out of reunion talks amid her husband Christian Horner’s alleged texting scandal with another woman:

“Geri has had enough to deal with after all the drama with her husband’s relationship with his assistant — it has been a tough enough time — and she’s just lost patience with Mel and her little digs and jibes.”

What “little digs and jibes,” you may be wondering? Well, it was Geri’s b-day last week, and to commemorate her, Mel, AKA Scary Spice, took to Instagram to share what fans believed to be a rather shady tribute. Alongside pics netizens have labeled unflattering, Mel wished her  a “Happy 75th Birthday.’ Ouch… Just for context, that’s 23 years older than Geri’s actual age of 52!

Related: Controversial Billionaire Who Went On ‘Dates’ With Kim Kardashian Dead At 91

Of the Spice Girls reunion, the source added:

“She’s walked away and without Geri it’s really not going to happen — in the past she’s been a driving force in the group, but she doesn’t want to deal with Mel at all at the moment let alone share a stage with her.”

Yikes, that sounds serious! And it probably doesn’t help that the two have what Mel claimed to be quite the saucy romantic history together…

In addition to the public remarks on Instagram, the source noted there’s been a slew of behind-the-scenes “jibes” that have been adding fuel to the fire. The insider dished:

“She’s walked away and without Geri it’s really not going to happen – in the past she’s been a driving force in the group, but she doesn’t want to deal with Mel at all at the moment let alone share a stage with her.”

The Spice Girls also included Victoria as Posh Spice, Melanie C as Sporty Spice, and Emma Bunton as Baby Spice.

Are you disappointed to hear this news, Perezicous readers? Do you think there’s a chance Mel and Geri will move past this? Let us know in the comments down below.

Kevin Sorbo pissed off Lucy Lawless, and now Hercules is once again suffering the wrath of Xena.

Late last month, Donald Trump made headlines while desperately attempting to discredit Kamala Harris. We guess that doesn’t narrow it down enough… We’re talking about when he questioned whether or not she’s really Black while at the National Association of Black Journalists conference. He claimed to always have known her as Indian, and only recently she “wants to be known as Black.”

So wrong on so many levels… It should go without saying, but Kamala was born to an Indian mother and a Jamaican father. A person can be more than one thing — like how Trump is a convicted fraudster AND an accused rapist.

Related: Kanye West Offers Up HORRIBLE Excuse For His Blatant Antisemitism! Really??

Days later, Sorbo, who’s a longtime vocal Trump supporter, upped the ante AND controversy by taking to X (Twitter) to pick up where the former President left off. He posted:

“If Kamala really is black, have her say the N-word, let the people decide for themselves.”

Jeez, dude… Who TF says that?!

TONS of angry social media users flooded his replies expressing condemn the tasteless post, including his former Hercules: The Legendary Journeys co-star.

In since-deleted posts, Lucy sarcastically defended him by recalling an absolutely HORRIFIC comment he allegedly made regarding the O.J. Simpson/Nicole Brown Simpson murder case. She wrote on Friday:

“In his defense, I personally witnessed a time when Kevin Sorbo stuck up for a black man against white people.”

Oh? She continued:

“The NZ summer, Feb 1995 when my character, #Xena was introduced into my husband’s show, Hercules the Legendary Journeys. We actors were sitting around and I bought up a news item. I said, ‘Guys, did you guys hear about that woman and her friend who were brutally murdered in LA? I think maybe the footballer did it!’”

Referring to Kevin as “Peanut,” she continued:

“And Peanut growled: ‘Hey! I knew Nicole and let me tell you… she was no picnic!’ BOOM.’”

WHOA?!?!

Lucy added:

“We were all gobsmacked. I said, ‘She didn’t deserve to be stabbed to death. He replied, ‘I’m just saying, She was a piece of work.’”

WTF! What an incredibly senseless and downright disgusting thing to say! You literally hear about a woman being murdered by her ex, and you think, good riddance, she was ‘no picnic’??

She added:

“It stuck in my mind because those Americanisms were unusual to us. But we knew what he meant. #DontGetMeStarted!”

In a post that’s still up on her page, she added afterward:

“Peanut: I don’t see people. I only see color.”

So horrible!

It’s unclear why she deleted the accusation, which was up all weekend. Maybe she felt like it was overkill for his career? Maybe he threatened legal action?? Either way, it’s out there now! And OOF! Xena still has that killer instinct, that’s for sure!

Reactions??

Miley Cyrus is officially Disney royalty.

On Sunday, the Flowers singer made history at the Disney’s D23 event in Anaheim, California by becoming the youngest person EVER to make it to Disney Legend status!!

For those who don’t know, Disney Legends is pretty much like the company’s de facto hall of fame… It includes stars who they believe “have made major contributions to the company over the years,” according to their website. And as for Miley, she of course rose to fame all the way back in 2006 after landing her hit Disney Channel show Hannah Montana at just 13 years old, in which she played the pop sensation by night and regular ol’ Miley Stewart by day.

To celebrate this new milestone and impressive achievement, the 31-year-old came out on stage to her hit HM song The Best of Both Worlds before reflecting on her early days on screen as the character:

“We needed footage of her playing sold out concerts but no-one knew who she, aka Miley, was.”

Related: Kendall Jenner Feels Her Life Growing Up Was Like Hannah Montana!

Through teary eyes, the Wrecking Ball singer recalled giving away free tickets at malls where she had her “first free concert.” She continued:

“In reality I was a little girl in a blonde wig at the mall with a big dream, but in my heart I was Hannah Montana. And I was so proud to be her.”

Awww! The We Can’t Stop singer went on:

“A little bit of everything has changed since that day. But at the same time, nothing has changed at all. I stand here still proud to have been Hannah Montana. She made Miley in so many ways. This award is dedicated to Hannah and all of her amazing, loyal fans, and to everyone who has made my dream a reality. To quote the legend herself, ‘This is the life.’”

So sweet!

Elsewhere in her speech, the Disney alum joked about not being “created in a lab,” before reflecting on her Bangerz era — which was a BIG departure from her Disney brand:

“If I was, there must have been a bug in the system which caused me to malfunction somewhere between the years of 2013 and 2016.”

HA!

Honestly, she’s not wrong about that!

Oof! As the news of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck‘s slow-moving divorce continues to roll out, we’ve all been asking what went wrong?

But what if we’re all asking the wrong question? What if this was never supposed to have a happy ending? What if it was all just… an ending? What if Bennifer 2.0 was just a post-script for Bennifer’s first go??

That seems to be the prevailing opinion among some folks in the couple’s social circle! They say Ben and Jen just couldn’t get one another out of their heads all these years — through marriages, kids, heartbreaks, rock bottoms… But not because they were endgame like so many of us thought. They just had “unfinished business.”

Related: Kim Kardashian & Pete Davidson Might Be Giving Love Another Shot!

One friend told Page Six when they started talking again they jumped headfirst because all the feelings were pent up from wondering “what if” for 20 years:

“They got caught up in the moment. Jennifer had wanted this wedding — the gowns, the friends, all the trappings and trimmings — for decades.”

Obviously the relationship didn’t work — heck, it only lasted a couple years, brief even by Hollywood standards. But while that’s heartbreaking, it’s also… cathartic? They had to go through with it, the wedding, the whole thing that they didn’t get the first time around, in order to know for sure. Now they do. The friend explained:

“They’ve turned the page on all the unfinished business of 20 plus years ago. They’ve seen things through to the end — and they know for sure now that they are not built for the long haul. No further unanswered questions. They’ve seen all they need to see, and it’s over.”

Sounds like that thing when you finally hook up with a high school crush or get back together with an old boyfriend, and it lasts for about a week before you want to kill each other. Sometimes you get a chance like that, and it helps you realize you were never each other’s “one that got away” — you just never had the chance to understand why it couldn’t work. And tbh? We recommend it. You get to stop wondering what if and look to the future.

As the friend put it, with the mansions and Prime Video documentaries and Super Bowl ads and TWO weddings, this is a much, much pricier version of that:

“In the end, it’s gonna be the most elaborate and expensive exercise in closure ever.”

But it worked! They’re looking to the future, says the friend:

“Ben’s found his new home, Jen’s about to select hers. It’s absolutely done and there is zero interest, inclination or reason to turn back.”

Well, if that’s true then why is the divorce taking so long? Hmm.

It’s been well over two decades since Prince William and Princess Catherine first got together as students at the University of St. Andrews way back in the fall of 2001, but we’re only just now learning about some of the most awkward moments that came with their young, budding love!

That fall at college, the two first-year students initially forged a friendship before eventually transitioning into becoming a full-blown romantic couple. Royal biographer Robert Jobson detailed as much in his new book, Catherine, Princess of Wales, which we have been covering quite a bit recently. But this new revelation from way back when really takes the cake!!

Flash back to the fall of ’01, when Wills and Kate Middleton were hanging out so often that pretty much everybody on campus knew they were a couple. Jobson writes in his new book about how the duo always walked to class together, browsed the local grocery store, and spent countless nights listening to music as a twosome. So, it was not exactly a secret to other students that the pair was an item, per Jobson:

“Among the student community, it was an open secret that they were a couple.”

Except Wills and Kate hadn’t admitted that to themselves — or anybody else! Jobson recalled how the duo’s chemistry “remained shrouded in secrecy” for some time that fall. Until a dinner party hosted by one of the prince’s ex-girlfriends threw the whole thing out into the open, that is!

The “revealing moment,” as Jobson writes, was a party hosted by Will’s ex Carly Massy-Birch. During the party, the attendees played a round of “Never Have I Ever,” the famous drinking game which encourages participants to confess salacious and/or funny previous experiences from their lives. Jobson wrote:

“Perhaps unwittingly, Carly exposed William’s secret love affair with Catherine, much to the prince’s chagrin.”

Uh-oh!

Per another royal biographer, Katie Nicholl in her book The Making Of A Royal Romance, another partygoer at that long-ago night’s shindig recalled how Carly chose to stir the pot when it was her turn to deliver the next round of “Never Have I Ever” drama:

“[Carly] announced, ‘I’ve never dated two people in this room,’ knowing full well that William was the only one who had because Kate was sitting next to him.”

OMG! Savage!!! Nicholl reported how the entire room was “in shock” following Massy-Birch’s move. And no one was more shocked than Prince William himself, who “shot a thunderous look” at his ex-girlfriend before whispering under his breath:

“I can’t believe you just said that.”

Nicholl’s party insider explained how that was a watershed moment for the then-new couple, too:

“We knew they were together, but it was the first time William confirmed his and Kate’s relationship in public.”

Going official before the era of being Facebook official and Instagram official! LOLz!

Thankfully for Massy-Birch, the tension between her and Wills over that party foul didn’t last long. The two remained chummy ever since, and Carly was even invited to Prince William and Princess Catherine’s wedding in 2011. So, that’s nice! Still, what a wild way to be forced to reveal your relationship to the world! Reactions, y’all?? Share ’em (below)!
