SELENA GOMEZ REPORTEDLY IN MENTAL HEALTH FACILITY AFTER BEING HOSPITALIZED FOR ‘EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN’ – (10/11/2018)
Selena Gomez has reportedly entered a mental health facility after being hospitalized twice in two weeks – the second time for what the outlet describes as an “emotional breakdown.”
According to TMZ, the first hospital visit took place during the last week of September. Selena was “despondent and emotional over an alarmingly low white blood cell count in the wake of her kidney transplant,” so a family member took her to the hospital in Los Angeles.
The singer was released from hospital after several days, but was “re-admitted late last week because her low blood cell count persisted, and it threw Selena into a downward emotional spiral.”
TMZ said Selena wanted to leave the hospital, and experienced an “emotional breakdown” when she was told she wasn’t allowed to. She’s now said to be at a psychiatric facility on the East Coast, and is receiving DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), a treatment used for various mental health conditions.
DJ SNAKE, CARDI B, OZUNA, SELENA GOMEZ RELEASE EPIC ‘TAKI TAKI’ VIDEO – (10/11/2018)
After being teased on the American Music Awards, the full video for “Taki Taki” has dropped, and has the four artists involved dancing while surrounded by lava flows.
Selena Gomez, Cardi B, DJ Snake and Ozuna are all shown dancing in the crater of a volcano in the clip, and as each vocalist takes their turn, they’re also seen in a different setting.
Ozuna is shown lying down in a square pit, surrounded by writhing, half-naked girls; Cardi is onstage performing in a dark, neon-lit club, backed up by a number of dancers.
Selena does her thing in a jungle setting, while DJ Snake mostly looks mysterious and sits on top of a Range Rover, with a masked demonic figure with glowing eyes, leaping around as well.
Since the song’s release, “Taki Taki” has earned over 20 million YouTube views and 60 million streams across all platforms. The song is currently the most-streamed on Spotify and recently peaked at No. 2 on iTunes.

DUA LIPA PRANKS JIMMY KIMMEL – (10/11/2018)
Jimmy Kimmel was once again awakened from a sound sleep, as Dua Lipa barged into his bedroom and roused him with her hit “Electricity” in a segment that aired on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday.
Lipa blasts her hit single and jumps on Kimmel’s bed as he tries to sleep, helped out by assistants manning a fog machine and multicolored lights.
The clip ends with Lipa asking Kimmel, “Do you like electricity?” to which he answers, “I’m pleasantly surprised.” After exchanging “Goodnights,” the groggy late night host tells Lipa, “You’re welcome to stay, if you want.”
After stumbling downstairs, the host offers to make the crew pancakes. Back at the Kimmel Live set, he adds, “For a minute, when I saw what she was wearing with that white shirt and the orange shorts, I thought I was having a dream about Hooter’s.”
The comedian’s wife, Molly McNearney, orchestrated the celebrity prank, which follows similar surprise visits from Rihanna, Britney Spears and Miley Cyrus.
ARIANA GRANDE’S ‘BREATHIN’’ VIDEO STARS HER PET PIG – (10/11/2018)
Ariana Grande has shared the latest music video for a track off her new album Sweetener. Unlike her videos for “No Tears Left to Cry” and “God Is a Woman,” the video for “Breathin’” isn’t exactly a visual epic. It’s over three minutes of fuzzy footage of her pet teacup pig, Piggy Smalls, walking around on her bed.
Meanwhile, Ariana may be dropping new music way sooner than anyone thought. The 25-year-old singer released Sweetener back in August 2018, but she might be releasing her fifth album before the end of the year.
A celebrity photographer in New York City caught Ariana on Wednesday and asked her, “Ari, are we getting another album before the end of the year?”
Ariana looked back and said, “Yes!” The photographer then said, “I’m excited” and she responded, “Me too!”
‘JOKER’ EXTRAS FORCED TO PEE IN LOCKED TRAIN CAR? – (10/11/2018)
Proving once again that Hollywood isn’t all glam and glitz, extras on The Joker got locked in a subway train car for hours, and after getting no response to their requests for a bathroom break, several were forced to pee between the cars, TMZ reports.
The Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix, is the latest film reincarnation of the Batman character. This version takes place in the 80s with Phoenix taking on the role of failed comic-turned-criminal.
The Screen Actors Guild and Warner Bros. are reportedly looking into the incident.
