Dina's Dirt for August 12, 2025
Halle Berry isn't wifey/mama material according to her ex-husband.
Taylor Swift has officially announced her 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," just hours after a mysterious countdown appeared on her website. The timer hit zero on the 12th day of this month at 12:12AM Now of course, we're just getting word of the album, and we won't get to hear it just yet, but Taylor's friends have probably heard all the songs, like one of her besties, Selena Gomez, who shared the she was one of the first people Taylor played "Love Story" for.
Chad Michael Murray has acted in a ton of iconic roles over the years - "Dawson's Creek," "Gilmore Girls," "One Tree Hill" and "Freaky Friday," to name a few – but, he nearly died before any of those roles came about. Chad said when he was just 15 years old his intestines got all twisted up and he was bleeding internally. He was in the hospital for more than two months and lost half of the blood in his body, basically "on [his] deathbed." Chad says he remembers seeing his father talking to a priest about last rites before his nurse, Sandy, gave him a blood transfusion to save his life. These days, Chad says he's all about clean living - no alcohol, and eating healthy – because he doesn't want to end up in the hospital like that ever again.
Halle Berry's ex David Justice admitted that part of the reason he and Halle split up was because she didn't cook or clean or seem "motherly." That's what he expected from traditional wife and he doubted Halle was someone to have children with. Fans mocked him up and down, with some pointing out with their careers (she an actress, he a baseball player), they "could have simply hired a full cleaning & cooking staff." Halle and David were married in 1993 and divorced in 1997. I think we can all agree, it's his loss.
Kim Kardashian faced backlash after revealing she traveled to Mexico for stem cell treatments, saying the therapy relieved her shoulder and back pain with "immediate" results and encouraging everyone to try it. But then she pointed out the treatment isn't available in the US and can cost up to $15,000 (plus travel expenses). Fans criticized her for being out of touch, with comments like "We're poor" and "We're not all billionaires unfortunately." Kim hasn't responded yet as she's probably still looking up the definition of "poor" first.
