  • Bruce Jenner Survives Car Wreck That Kills One on PCH, May Face Vehicular Manslaughter Charges

  • Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick Are Quitting Reality Television

    A new baby might not be the only thing Kourtney Kardashian is going to be celebrating. The reality star and her baby daddy Scott Disick are just about at the end of their three-year contract with E!, and rather than signing another deal the couple seems about ready to put reality television in their past.According to a new report by Radar Online, Kardashian is wise enough to realize that doing the show with her boyfriend since 2007 has actually caused a lot more fights than they would have had if every moment of their lives was not documented for the world to see. Sources say the couple has been over the whole reality TV thing, and the buzz that comes with it for quite awhile now, but they still had to ride out the end of their contracts.Perhaps if they walk away from the cameras and daily spotlight it will actually help Disick keep himself together. His battle with alcohol and pills was one of the main storylines on "Kourtney & Khloé Take the Hamptons," the most recent reality show of theirs to wrap up on E! Disick was and still is grieving the loss of his parents while contending with the stress of a new baby, and if we have learned anything about this guy, it is that he cannot cope well.

  • Hip-Hop Artists React to News of ESPN's Stuart Scott's Passing Via Twitter

    The relationship between competitive sports and hip-hop is an inspiring and important one. With many athletes looking to performing artists for motivational soundtracks to their daily workouts and hip-hop artists supporting athletes just the same, both teams were affected by today's news that ESPN sports anchor Stuart Scott has died after battling cancer.ESPN reported that the beloved anchor has lost his battle with cancer at age 49.Stuart Scott was known for interjecting elements of hip-hop culture into his reporting, such as coining hip catchphrases such as "Cooler than the other side of the pillow," and "Boo-Yah," to name a couple, to an audience hungry for journalists mixing it up in their reporting.As ESPN President John Skipper said, Scott spoke to athletes with a flair that "changed everything."The reporter was an inspiration for many beyond the realms of sports reporting and was known for pushing the envelope in everything he did.Stuart Scott worked at ESPN for 21 years, and in July accepted the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance, stating, "When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live and in the manner in which you live."Clearly an inspiration to many. Check out what some members of the hip-hop community are saying on Twitter after hearing the news:

  • Melissa Rivers's Biggest Holiday Wish Is for Her Son to Laugh Again

    These last four months have no doubt been at times unbearable for Melissa Rivers and her son Cooper. The untimely death of Joan Rivers in early September has been a devastating blow for the tight-knit family, and while Melissa is starting to step out in public again, that does not mean things are back to normal either for her or Cooper.TMZ caught up with the late comedienne's daughter last week and asked her about her holiday wish, and Melissa said her fondest Christmas wish would be for her son to begin laughing again. While she said she believes 2015 will have great things in store for them, it seems it may be awhile before they are feeling somewhat back to normal.Even if Melissa and Cooper have adjusted to not having Joan as a prominent part of their daily lives, there is still a legal battle ahead. It seems many mistakes were made by the staff of the Yorkville Endoscopy Clinic, from administering too much propofol to Joan to ignoring the fact that her vitals had dropped for an extended period of time, and Melissa has every intention of holding them accountable.

  • Sydney Gunman Man Haron Monis Was Well-Known by Police But Not on Any Terror Watch List

    Just one day after a hostage situation at a Lindt Chocolate Cafe in Sydney, Australia's financial district ended with three dead after law enforcement stormed in, the country is left to ponder how something so sinister could have even played out there. We now know that Man Haron Monis was the 50-year-old gunman who fancied himself a sheikh with a personal agenda, but what is not clear is how he was free in the first place.Monis had a long history of brushes with the law and he was charged with everything from sexual assault to sending hate mail to the families of fallen Australian solders who died in Afghanistan. Perhaps the most horrific thing he had been charged with before yesterday was being an accessory to his former wife's murder.Apparently, Monis's latest girlfriend stabbed his ex and then set her on fire and he was actually out on bail for his part in the crime when he decided to take 17 hostages yesterday morning and demand that a flag of ISIS be brought to him.Sydney locals's shock morphed into anger when they realized that not only did their own law enforcement seem to drop the ball with Monis, but even with his outward love of Muslim extremist behavior he actually was not on any kind of terror watch list. This fact has left Prime Minister Tony Abbott deeply disturbed.
