Is it Queen Elizabeth looking down upon her Royal subjects? First, there was the double rainbow over Buckingham Palace when her death was announced, and now, one person has posted a pic of a cloud that looks like the Queen riding a horse. Brits are saying the image, taken on Sunday in Wembley, reminds them of a young Elizabeth riding in royal uniform. You can see the pic at Daily Mail.

If you think back to Britney Spears' wedding guest list, you'll recall Drew Barrymore was one of the few people she invited to celebrate the occasion. Fans have been wondering how she ended up scoring an invite, but Drew sat down with Jimmy Fallon to explain, saying, ""I made friends with Britney about a year and a half ago, and we sort of had some secret exchanges. And I know that sounds nefarious — it was exactly the opposite. It was very connective and honest and we've both been through a lot of things. We have some parallels that are unique in their circumstances." Basically, both can understand what it's like to have terrible parents. According to OK, Drew said they found a "deep connection" and have become "genuine friends."

Is the stress getting to King Charles? Or, is it simply that all the pens have turned on him? They do say the pen is mightier than the sword… While King Charles was at Hillsborough Castle in Northern Ireland on Tuesday for an official signing, the pen he was using started leaking. He got flustered until Camilla came over to take the pen from him. But even so, he ended up signing the wrong date, and walked out frustrated, mumbling "Can't bear this bloody thing, Every stinking time." as he furiously wiped away the black ink with a handkerchief. See the video at pagesix.com. Now, just three days before, King Charles was filmed angrily gesturing to have royal aides take away a pen set from the desk where he was about to sign the Accession Proclamation, which officially made him the monarch of the UK and Commonwealth following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II. Apparently, it was in his way, and that really bothered him.

Christina Aguilera has unfollowed Britney Spears on Instagram after it appeared that Britney body-shamed Christina's backup dancers in an Instagram post. On Monday night, Brit posted a Rodney Dangerfield quote that read, "I found there was only one way to look thin: hang out with fat people." In the caption, she wrote, "I wish I could have chosen the nannies for my children … my dancers … I mean if I had Christina Aguilera's dancers I would have looked extremely small." The post got a lot of backlash from fans, but Britney later took to social media to clear things up, writing, "By no means was I being critical of Christina's beautiful body, it is what it is !!," and calling Christina "a beautiful woman of power," thanking her for inspiring her.
She added that she wasn't being "critical of anybody," and "What I posted is a projection of the insecurities I deal with all the time as a result of how my parents and the media have treated me … I would never intentionally body shame anybody because I know what it feels like."
Jimmy Kimmel is getting trashed online over a skit he and Will Arnett performed as presenters because it took away from Quinta Brunson's winning moment. Jimmy and Will presented the award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series at Monday night's Emmy Awards, where Will dragged a "passed out" Jimmy onstage and laid his body out next to the microphone saying Jimmy had too many margaritas backstage. Once Quinta was announced as the winner, Jimmy stayed where he was, all the while she acceted her award. It seemed Quinta wasn't bothered though, joking, "Jimmy, wake up. I won." She told reporters after the show, "I think in that moment, I was just really happy that it was Jimmy up there ... I don't know, tomorrow maybe I'll be mad at him. I'm gonna be on his show on Wednesday, so I might punch him in the face. I don't know. We'll see what happens." See the video at tmz.com.

Is Meghan Markle being difficult again? There's a video going around showing Meghan going back and forth with a Palace aide over flowers that mourners wanted to leave in memory of their Queen. As see on the video from Daily Mail, Meghan was holding some flower bunches she received from people in the crowd. A Royal aide tried to take them, but Meghan insisted she would bring them to the gates herself. It took another aide to convince her she had to give up the flowers – for her own protection. Royals aren't supposed to hold items that are given to them in case there's a threat, like an explosive or dangerous substance. Speaking of tributes, British officials have asked people to stop putting Paddington Bears and marmalade sandwiches at Green Park next to Buckingham Palace in remembrance of the Queen. The Queen starred in a video where she had tea and sandwiches with Paddington Bear as part of her Platinum Jubilee celebrations earlier this year, and people are using Paddington and his love of marmalade sandwiches as a tribute to the monarch.
Not only did the infamous tape starring Kim Kardashian and Ray J shoot Kim straight into stardom, it gave her bank account quite a padding.
According to TMZ, the video earned almost $1.5M in sales in the first month alone, and Ray J said they each got $400,000 upfront plus 12.5% of the profits. There's proof of it in the email to Kim and Ray J from the head of Vivid Entertainment.
As we told you before, Britney Spears is less than pleased with her two sons, Jayden James and Sean Preston, after Jayden opened up about their strained relationship. Jayden had told Daily Mail that he and his brother were annoyed with Brit, explaining, "I asked my mother not to post his photos, and she did it anyway." He did say that "social media helps her … So if that's what she wants to do, that's what she wants to do. I'm not going to hate her for that." Britney has felt the hurt since then, and posted the other day, "I'm afraid to inform you guys, I'm not willing to see you until I feel valued," she said, adding that she felt "desperate" and "pathetic" when she tried to be in their lives more. She added, "All I know is my love for my children is more than anything and I'm sorry if I ever hurt you guys in any way." Later, she seemed to flip though writing, "Jayden and Preston, I adore you" but "I was told you guys have blocked me." Flip the switch again - "I'm so blessed to even call you mine, and I just want you to know."
The possible trouble between Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady has been brewing for a while, apparently. In an interview with Elle magazine that happened weeks before the first report of Gisele being frustrated with Tom's unretirement from the NFL, she said she would like him to "be more present" in the lives of her and their children. She goes on to say that she has "definitely had those conversations with him over and over again. But ultimately, I feel that everybody has to make a decision that works for them." Gisele was believed to be in New York during the Buccaneers' season opener on Sunday in Dallas, but she tweeted her support of the team and her husband. Listen, if I can still drive my kid to his game, get in trip to the grocery store, and still make it back in time for kickoff, there's no reason she should be missing any of Tom's games.
