Get ready for new music!

Josh Duhamel revealed this weekend that Fergie will be releasing her new album ‘in like ten days,’ so get ready for a new release linked to that hot clip we saw from her earlier!

Related: Fergie Reportedly Filmed A Music Video In Europe

Fergie’s hubby was discussing the celeb couple’s family with the Associated Press when he dropped the bomb on the music news, saying:

“She is releasing this album, which I’m told is going to be in like 10 days, but I’m not saying anything. But yeah, there’s going to be that whole release and then the beginning of next year she’ll be touring so it’s good. One of us will be home, one of us will be gone and we’ll meet. That’s the plan. Who knows? We’re making it up as we go!”

He said that on Saturday, so that means we’ve got a week (or less!) to go until we get Double Dutchess!

And that tour coming up next year — AH-mazing!!!

Thanks for spilling the beans, Josh…

Ha!!!

It’s been a very hard week for Amber Heard, but she apparently believes very strongly in what she’s doing.

As public scrutiny bears down upon her and Johnny Depp over the domestic abuse allegations that have rocked the news, Heard is apparently holding firm.

A source close to Amber shared a very telling quote with E! News, saying:

“This has been incredibly upsetting for Amber but she knows she is doing the right thing. It has been very traumatic for her to finally speak out, but she needs to do what she can to protect herself.”

Inneresting — obviously, she’s catching quite a bit of flack from people close to Johnny, but if this is what she feels she need to do…

We’ll keep you updated on this, as we have been all week. Crazy!!

Brad Pitt is NOT worried that Angelina Jolie is supposedly “slowly dying,” despite a baseless tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct this claim. We’re told there’s “no truth” to it.

According to a wholly speculative article by the National Enquirer, Jolie may be at risk of developing arthritis and bone disease. A so-called “insider” tells the tabloid, “Angie may be dealing with osteoporosis, and Brad feels like he’s watching his wife slowly die right before his eyes!”

The repeatedly refuted magazine further alleges that the actress “appears to be anorexic” and supposedly weighs a mere 79 pounds. The tabloid’s questionable source goes on to claim that Jolie is so fragile, “Brad fears an activity as innocuous as roughhousing with the kids could lead to a fracture.” The outlet’s “insider” adds, “Brad can’t believe all this could happen to the sexy seductress he fell in love with.”

But despite how many times Gossip Cop has debunked the Enquirer and similar tabloids for making up nonexistent health issues about Jolie, we still checked in with a source close to the actress, who exclusively tells us there’s “no truth” to the latest claims. Jolie isn’t suffering any sort of bone disease, nor is she anorexic, and therefore there’s nothing for Pitt to be worried about.

Unfortunately, Gossip Cop has had to repeatedly bust the Enquirer for creating similar tall tales. We recently debunked the magazine’s false cover story alleging Pitt was threatening to divorce a “dying” Jolie over her supposed health woes. The tabloid’s latest claim about Jolie’s condition is equally bogus.

Why would he say this… especially TWO YEARS after the film was released?!

So unprofessional!!

Director John Carney is speaking out about Keira Knightley‘s work on Begin Again, a movie where the actress was tasked with playing a songwriter dumped by her boyfriend (played by Adam Levine) who starts over with a former record label exec (Mark Ruffalo).

Related: Get More Keira News HERE!

Carney, speaking to The Independent, absolutely demolishes Knightley and her work on the film, beginning by saying:

“I think that’s what you need as an actor; you need to not be afraid to find out who you really are when the camera’s rolling. Keira’s thing is to hide who you are and I don’t think you can be an actor and do that.”

But wait — it gets worse!

Carney continues:

“[…] It’s not like I hate the Hollywood thing but I like to work with curious, proper film actors as opposed to movie stars. I don’t want to rubbish Keira, but you know it’s hard being a film actor and it requires a certain level of honesty and self-analysis that I don’t think she’s ready for yet and I certainly don’t think she was ready for that on film. As much as I tried to make it work I think that she didn’t quite come out as a guitar-playing singer-songwriter.”

Um… wow!

The film was predominantly met with positive reviews, for what it’s worth, but apparently Carney was NOT feeling it.

The final verdict? Well, for him, it’s pretty simple:

“I learned that I’ll never make a film with supermodels again.”

Wow!

This is horrifying!

Mexican soccer star Alan Pulido has apparently been abducted in the crime-ridden northern Mexican state of Tamaulipas, according to state authorities there who were mounting an operation on Sunday to find the athlete.

Related: More Viral News HERE

The 25-year-old soccer star, who is a forward for Olympiacos soccer team in Greece and was a member of Mexico’s 2014 World Cup team, was apparently grabbed early Sunday morning after leaving a party near his hometown of Ciudad Victoria.

Attorney General Ismael Quintanilla, speaking about the incident, said:

“We have information that he was intercepted by armed persons and since then his whereabouts are unknown.”

Mexican goalkeeper Jesus Corona shared his thoughts about the unfortunate incident, too:

“A shame what happened. My prayers are with him and his family at this difficult time.”

Pulido’s home soccer club, the Tigres of Monterrey, were equally distraught about their player, and expressed ‘solidarity’ with the player’s family during this difficult time.

Tamaulipas has seen extensive battles and violence between major drug gangs, and at least right now, this appears to be an extension of that situation.

Our thoughts are with Mr. Pulido and his family, friends, and loved ones.

Now the stories are starting to come full circle.

As we reported earlier this week, the LAPD was called to an alleged altercation between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, but at the time, they did not seek to press charges after being unable to find evidence of domestic abuse.

Well, now, one of the people there — Amber’s neighbor and friend of thirteen years, Raquel Rose Pennington — has given a deposition where she describes that day’s events in detail, and it is very scary.

Pennington claims that on May 21, she received a text from Heard asking her to come over to the woman’s condo. When Pennington got there, she heard the couple arguing, and she entered the condo to try to stop it.

Raquel continues:

“When I opened the door, I saw Amber by the couch, covering her head with her arms and hands, as Johnny was loudly screaming at her.”

When Pennington ran to stop it in Amber’s defense, she also claims that Johnny went off the deep end and started getting crazy:

“I ran over and stood in between Johnny and Amber, begging Johnny to stop yelling at her. I put my hands out in a defensive manner motioning him to stop. Johnny slapped my hands away and screamed foul obscenities at me.”

Whoa.

From there, Pennington alleges that Depp picked up a bottle of wine and began swinging it ‘like a baseball bat’ around the condo — and in the process, he smashed everything he could.

It was then that Raquel took Amber back to her place and called the police.

Scary stuff…

Talk about a fashion statement!

This week, Kylie Jenner made headlines when she posted a selfie wearing a Ksubi sweatshirt that read, “fake.” Many fans immediately thought she was taking a dig at ex Tyga. Either way, the two are 100% dunzo!

Kim Kardashian West wore a custom Roberto Cavalli gown to the Vogue 100 Gala, Lorde is making music with Jack Antonoff, and Kourtney Kardashian spent time with her kids!

This is so sad.

New Orleans Pelicans rookie guard Bryce Dejean-Jones was shot and killed in Dallas, Texas on Saturday, according to authorities.

Related: Everything We Know About Amber Heard’s Claims

The NBA player was fatally shot after he broke down the door to an apartment in the Dallas area, and the person living in the apartment fired his gun in self-defense to protect himself from the threat.

Dejean-Jones, 23, was from Los Angeles, and police did not know why he was in Dallas.

The athlete was found outside in an outdoor passageway at the apartment building by police officers, and first responders began treatment but it was too late, and Dejean-Jones bled to death.

The New Orleans Pelicans released a statement on the death:

“We are devastated at the loss of this young man’s life (and) who had such a promising future ahead of him.”

Steve Prohm, who coached Dejean-Jones at Iowa State University in college, said:

“This is a very, very sad and tragic day for everyone that’s a part of the Cyclone basketball family… [He was] a passionate and talented player that lived out his dream of playing in the NBA through hard work and perseverance.”

Ugh.

So awful.

RIP, Bryce.
