Simone Biles shockingly pulled out of the U.S. team gymnastics finals, admitting it wasn't a physical injury that led to her sudden withdrawal but rather the emotional toll of the Tokyo Games. She told Hoda on "Today," "Physically, I feel good. I'm in shape, [but] emotionally, it varies on the time and moment. Coming to the Olympics and being head star isn't an easy feat." She explained further to NBC's Andrea Joyce that her struggle was "more mental, and we're just dealing with a couple of things internally." Word is she has also pulled out of the individual all-around where she is the defending champion. In the meantime, her biological mother, Shanon Biles, told the Daily Mail that no matter what happens next, "she's gonna be okay." Simone's boyfriend, NFL Star Jonathan Owens, also threw support to the team, writing on Instagram, "I'm so proud of y'all."
Scott Disick from "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" was supposed to make an already rescheduled appearance Friday night at Gaffney's Restaurant & Bar in Saratoga Springs, according to Page Six, and he bailed on them yet again. First, his team said the restaurant needed to arrange for a small plane to pick him up in the Hamptons. But then they said they were all said and it needed after all. Then on Friday – just hours before the scheduled event – Scott's team said they now needed a helicopter. Again, the restaurant tried to rush around to find a helicopter, just to have Scott's team call back and say never mind they were all set. And after all that, Scott never showed up. According to Page Six, his managers called the restaurant to say the chopper had fallen through and that he wouldn't be able to show up. Again, this is the second time he's blown off an appearance at his restaurant. The restaurant had to issue refunds and sources say they are now reportedly considering suing him.

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher admit they don't bathe their daughter, Wyatt Isabelle, 6, and son, Dimitri Portwood, 4 very often. Ashton said on Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert" podcast, "Here's the thing: If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there's no point." Mila admitted that's how she grew up, adding, "I didn't have hot water growing up as a child, so I didn't shower much anyway," and that's partly why she doesn't wash her kids every day. The American Academy of Dermatology Association reports that kids age 6 to 11 "may not need a daily bath," but they should at least wash themselves once or twice a week. And when Ashton and Mila do shower, they only use soap in the pits and privates, Lever 2000, according to Ashton. And, both of them wash their face with water on a daily basis.
Fans of Dua Lipa are calling on her to remove DaBaby from the remix of "Levitating" after his homophobic remarks. As of now, the remix is still available on all streaming platforms, according to Radar, and DaBaby is most likely still making money from his contribution to song. As Radar previously reported, DaBaby shouted out a bunch of insults on stage recently that offended his LGBTQ+ fans. According to OK!, Dua has responded, writing, "I'm surprised and horrified at DaBaby's comments. I really don't recognize this as the person I worked with. I know my fans know where my heart lies and that I stand 100% with the LGBTQ community. We need to come together to fight the stigma and ignorance around HIV/AIDS."
Many of the Royals aren't thrilled with "The Crown" and its take on their lives, but Fergie, Duchess of York, feels the opposite. The show's most recent season took place in the 80s, but barely featured anything of Fergie. Fergie herself even joked, "Hello? Where is Fergie?" She told Town & Country that she even wrote to an executive producer of "The Crown," offering input. She noted, "I said to him, 'Why can't I help my character?'" But her offer was declined. Fergie and Princess Diana were good friends, so it would have made sense to see her character included more.
Rumors are swirling that Paris Hilton and her fiancé, Carter Reum, are expecting, not that we should be surprised since in January she said the couple was undergoing IVF treatments, but she is not. On the latest episode of the "This Is Paris" podcast, Paris shared, "I also woke up to about 3,000 texts, all my iPhones are blowing up — all five of them — everyone wishing me congratulations and so happy for me and, yes, I've heard from people I haven't heard from in years. Thank you, everyone, for all the messages. It's a busy day today, so I haven't answered anyone yet, but yes, I am pregnant with triplets... I am so excited for motherhood," But then she said, "I'm just kidding. I am not pregnant, not yet. I am waiting until after the wedding. My dress is being made right now, so I want to make sure it looks gorgeous and fits perfectly, so definitely waiting for that part." Now that's more like what we expect from Paris. Paris isn't sure how the pregnancy rumors started, but she did say maybe she "shouldn't have worn" her push-up bra during a recent date night out.
