"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Jennifer Aydin talked about losing out on her spot on the Fans at Sea "Wives on the Wave" cruise after the company cut ties with her amid her Jersey Mike's drama. Saying she "took it like a champ," Jennifer said she has no hard feelings towards the cruise line adding, "This is a business and this is their business, and I do not want them to receive any backlash because of me." In the meantime, according to Page Six, Jennifer said her husband, Dr. Bill Aydin, was not happy about her posting the Jersey Mike's incident online, having told her "not to post the video." She has since said, "Listen to the husband, ladies! Husbands know best."
In the midst of her legal drama with her "It Ends with Us" co-star Justin Baldoni, Blake Lively is being called out for being a mean girl joke about "Gossip Girl" co-star Leighton Meester being born in jail. In a resurfaced video, Blake and Leighton were on stage for a panel answering questions, when at one point, they were asked about something to do with cages.
Blake pointed to Leighton saying, "Well some of us started in a cage," referring to Leighton being born while her mother was in jail. Then there's also that video where Blake treated a reporter like garbage after the reporter asked her about her wardrobe from a movie.
"Gossip Girl" reboot star Samantha Baldwin was evacuated from the LA wildfires, but she went back in to get her cat. She said she had to leave her car, run 15 minutes back to her apartment, and then "It took 20 minutes for me to find her." Once she got back outside, she found that the path to getting back to her car was no longer an option so she had to go into the ocean. She added, "While I was running towards the ocean, I called my Mom and told her I loved her. I honestly didn't know if I was going to make it."
On "CBS Mornings," Rachel Accurso, or better known as Ms.

Ricki Lake revealed that celebrity psychic Tyler Henry had predicted the destruction of her "dream home." Ricki shared, "Less than three months ago, on Oct 15th, 2024, [my husband] Ross and I were on Tyler's show, and guys, he SAW the fire." Tyler told Ricki on she show, "There might end up being a coincidence where, not only do we lose everything… If there was a loss of material objects from both fire and water…. We're gonna end up finding there's a story where there was a house fire or something along those lines. A fire risk… There's something about watching water seepage into places it shouldn't and damaging [pictures]." Ricki did reveal that her "dream home" was completed destroyed by one of the LA fires.
As many celebrities step up to help with the recovery efforts from the LA fires, "Arrested Development" star Justine Bateman wrote online, "Meghan Markle and Harry are no better than ambulance chasers. What a repulsive 'photo op' they achieved. They are 'touring the damage'? Are they politicians now? They don't live here; they are tourists. Disaster Tourists." Her opinion comes after a video came out showing Harry and Meghan in Pasadena on Friday, mingling with volunteers and the city's mayor, Victor Gordo. Sources say the two did hand out some water. Let's hope they don't run into each at the grocery store – that could make for an awkward moment.
