As we reported, Quantasia Sharpton — one of Usher‘s accusers — held a press conference with lawyer Lisa Bloom where she is suing the musician for allegedly exposing her to genital herpes without disclosing his alleged sexual condition. Although the alleged victim is negative for the STD, she still feels violated.

However, Sharpton may be motivated by “money,” according to alleged week-old social media messages!
Exactly seven days before her news conference, the young woman allegedly wrote on Facebook under the name “Angel Valentino”: “I need some money,” and “Enjoying my last couple of hours as a regular girl.”
She goes by this alias because:
“I go by Angel cause my name is clearly ghetto and hard to pronounce.”
The other two individuals on the lawsuit filed anonymously and are known as Jane and John Doe.
Bloom may be filing additional lawsuits as other potential victims have come forward.
Do you smell what the 2020 presidential candidate is cooking??
You will if Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson ends up deciding to give Donald Trump a run for his presidency!
The Fate of the Furious star has hinted at the possibility of running for president in the upcoming election. Sounds crazy, we know, but stranger things have happened!
For example, Roseanne Barr already RAN for president in 2012. Few people know this because the comedian only wanted to campaign online. Still, she managed to snag 0.36% of the popular vote!
Kid Rock plans on running a much more visible campaign when he runs for Senate in Michigan next year. Don’t laugh, we’re serious.

If you’re as big a fan of Chris Pratt and Anna Faris as we are, you can’t stop wondering… WHAT HAPPENED!?!
In searching for answers, People found a couple eyewitnesses from the last public event attended by Pratt, just two weeks before the heartbreaking announcement the two were separating.
Chris went stag to the Avenue LA premiere of Ingrid Goes West, supporting — along with Parks And Recreation costars Amy Poehler and Retta — his old pal Aubrey Plaza.
VOTE: Who Wore It Better — Aubrey Plaza Or Elizabeth Olsen??
Onlookers said Pratt appeared in “great spirits” at the SVEDKA Vodka-sponsored event (see pics above), and that he “was friendly, outgoing, and playful” at the afterparty.
One said:
“I was surprised by how he looked to actually be having fun, and that he was there voluntarily.”
“Voluntarily?” That’s a low bar. We guess that witness thought it was an industry-mandated thing and not a friend showing support?
Another partygoer said:
“Chris seemed different, like he was ‘free’ almost.”
Hmm. Was the decision made all the way back then? Or was he putting on a brave face through the pain? We do know that Chris is a pretty damn good actor.

The source noted one odd bit of behavior at the event:
“He said no to pictures though, which is weird because he always likes to take photos with fans. But he was in great spirits and was mingling with everyone he knew, like Amy, Aubrey, and that whole crew. They were together the whole night.”
Leaning on friends. That’s the way to do it.
Do you think Chris and Anna had already made their minds up by then?
As we previously reported, La La Anthony and Carmelo Anthony have called it quits on their marriage almost seven years after saying “I do” in light of rumors the NBA player cheated/maybe knocked up a stripper. Tsk tsk.
It’s no secret the 32-year-old’s net worth is significantly more than the TV host’s, thanks to his $ 124 million contract with the New York Knicks and his pricey endorsements with brands like Jordan and Foot Locker. TMZ reports he’s made upwards of $ 200 million during his career.

As for the 37-year-old, she’s definitely contributed financially to the family’s income through her success as an actress and model, but it’s still not on the same level by far.
Unless there’s a “cheating clause” in the former pair’s prenuptial agreement, Melo is set up to benefit greatly from the 2010 agreement due to his significant paycheck.
When and if the longtime couple decides to file for divorce, we imagine La La will challenge the details of the prenup, especially if it’s confirmed the baller strayed from the relationship.
It’s important to also note the exes share 10-year-old son Kiyan, which we’re sure will come into play while splitting pennies.
We’ll certainly keep you updated as we learn more.
Rita Ora performed “Your Song” on Monday’s “Good Morning America.” Watch the full “GMA” performance below!
“Your Song,” Ora’s latest single, was released in July, and will feature on her upcoming and long awaited second album. Before the British singer took to the “GMA” stage, she told Robin Roberts how she teamed up with Ed Sheeran to create the record. “It was so much fun,” Ora said. “It was like working with your friend, so we didn’t think too much about it. It took two hours, we went to the studio, we just kind of vibed out, and then we went to the pub, so it was pretty fun. Literally, it was that simple.”
The star went on to talk about hosting a new reality show, “Boy Band,” which premiered on ABC in June. “It’s so much fun,” Ora said of the singing competition, which has aspiring and talented male singers competing to join a boy band and score a deal with Hollywood Records. “I do this show called ‘Boy Band,’ and if anyone doesn’t know, we’re trying to find the next amazing boy band, which is fun.”
She continued, “We’ve got Timbaland on there, we’ve got Nick Carter from The Backstreet Boys, and Baby Spice [Emma Bunton], who is my fave. Basically, what we do is, we have fun, and these boys just get into it and it’s amazing to see because they’re as young as 14. It’s crazy.” The star is making the rounds this week on a number of morning shows to perform her latest track, “Your Song,” and is taking to the stage at the 2017 Teen Choice Awards as the opening act this weekend. She tweeted on Sunday, “Busy week starts tomorrow!! SO excited #YOURSONG.” Watch Ora’s full “GMA” performance below!

Was Selena Gomez betrayed by The Weeknd? That’s the claim in one of this week’s tabloids. Gossip Cop investigated the report, and we can now reveal what we’ve learned.
In a nod to the title of Gomez’s recent single, Starwrites in its current issue, “Guess Selena Gomez’s boyfriend is a Bad Liar too.” The tabloid claims it “learned that The Weeknd invited Irish Instagram model Ava Van Rose back to his hotel the night before his performance at the Longitude Festival in Dublin on July 15.” A so-called “spy on the scene” is quoted as saying, “She was brought right up to Abel’s penthouse suite.”
The gossip magazine’s supposed source goes on to claim he was “blown away” by Van Rose’s body, and asserts the dalliance is how she and pals wound up with backstage passes to the concert, which she flaunted on Instagram. The outlet then refers to its previously debunked claim about Gomez spying on The Weeknd at Coachella by hiring a “groupie guard” to secretly follow him.
Now a purported “source” contends to the publication, “She hoped Abel would prove her wrong. If Selena finds out about this [hookup with Van Rose], there’s no telling what she might do!” That dramatic line is linked to the fact that Gomez has “been in and out of rehab for anxiety and depression.” In other words, Star seems to be suggesting Gomez might do something harmful or dangerous.
That is a particularly shameless move, given that this tale is largely nonsense. This rumor about The Weeknd and Van Rose was first published by the dubious Irish Suna few weeks ago, and was solely based on a source close to the model, who has such meager Instagram fame, she has her page linked to an Amazon “wish list” for people to buy her gifts. It was not confirmed by any reputable U.S. publications. In fact, one of the few state-side sites to run the allegations was RadarOnline. And now here’s the tale in its sister outlet, Star. That’s not suspicious at all.
What’s also notable is the tabloid ran the unsupported contentions long after they first surfaced. Yet the aforementioned “source” said Gomez doesn’t know about the claims, even though they’ve been floating around the Internet for weeks. Not only is that far-fetched, but it seems to actually just be an excuse for why she and The Weeknd are still together. If he really betrayed Gomez as alleged, surely Gomez would know by now and wouldn’t have continued the relationship.
But the couple is still going strong, particularly after recently celebrating her birthday together. Gossip Cop is told that Gomez has no use for unsubstantiated rumors, which what this report is based on. It seems like the only ones who were betrayed was the magazine’s readers.

Selena Gomez was betrayed by The Weeknd, who cheated with Ava Van Rose.
Kim Kardashian’s boobs are “boosted” with injectable fillers, according to the latest rumor about the reality star’s famous curves. And since Gossip Cop looks into all claims no matter how ridiculous, we actually investigated this new tale.
The allegation can be found in the current issue of OK!, under the headline, “Kim’s Boosted Bust.” The story asserts Kardashian is giving her “hourglass figure” a “major upgrade with injectable fillers.” A so-called “insider” is quoted as saying, “There’s a new one designed for body-shaping that Kim is using. It’s the reason her breasts are so full right now, despite the weight she’s lost since she was snapped with cellulite in April.”
Of course, cellulite on Kardashian’s butt and thighs has nothing to do with the appearance of her breasts. And the star has always seemed to have a big bosom regardless of her weight. In any case, the gossip magazine insists Kardashian is undergoing a “nonsurgical procedure that gives her cleavage an, er, ‘natural’ look, and lasts for five years.” Contends the outlet’s supposed source, “Kim’s getting small doses regularly so it’s not an overnight change.”
“Once she achieves the maximum effect, she’ll likely give it a rest,” adds the alleged tipster. But as noted above, Kardashian has always had a big chest. It seems the only reason the publication ran this piece is because the mom of two “put her pumped-up cleavage on display” at a recent Balmain event. And to emphasize the “boosted bust” allegation, the tabloid enlarged the above photo to take up most of the page.
Yet it’s quite clear that it’s Kardashian’s tight crop top that is responsible for her “pumped-up cleavage,” which really doesn’t look any more “full right now” than in years past. To be fair, we’re not doctors. But it’s also worth noting that Kardashian is actually very open with what she uses to “boost” her appearance. From showing off her contouring methods to flaunting waist trainers and tummy tea on Instagram, she’s not exactly one to learn of a new trick and not share it with followers.
Not to mention, OK! is the same outlet that wrongly announced Kardashian and Kanye West were divorcing last December. If a magazine can’t get the big things right, or doesn’t care to, why should it be trusted on the trivial? Well, according to a rep, this story shouldn’t be trusted. Whatever the cause of Kardashian’s supposedly “boosted bust,” the spokesperson point-blank says the injectable fillers claim is “false.”
Robert Pattinson is clearing the air about remarks he made on Thursday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” about him supposedly being asked by the directors Ben and Josh Safdie to masturbate a dog in the movie Good Time, and Gossip Cop has the exclusive statement from the actor. He says, “The story I told on Jimmy Kimmel last night seems to have spiraled out of control. What didn’t come across is that this was supposed to be a joke. No one at all expected or assumed that anything like that would happen on the Good Time set.”
He adds, “We are all huge animal lovers and would obviously never do anything to harm an animal. Everyone involved in Good Time are amazing professionals and have come together to make a movie that I’m extremely proud of.” “I feel embarrassed that in the moment, I was trying to make Jimmy laugh, only to create confusion and a false impression,” concludes Pattinson.
As Gossip Cop reported, during Pattinson’s appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” to promote the movie, he told a tale about how his “character Connie has this affinity with dogs, and he thinks he is a dog in a previous life.” He then told the talk show host, “There was this one scene which we shot where it’s basically… I was sleeping with the dog and basically giving the dog a handjob.”
Pattinson noted, of course, that he would not do that, but as he’s now clarified in his statement to Gossip Cop, his story was “supposed to be a joke” and unfortunately ” spiraled out of control.” As a result, as we noted, PETA issued a statement about Pattinson read, “PETA depends on actors and crew members to come forward when they see mistreatment, whether it involves a dog who is being forced into churning water on the set of A Dog’s Purpose or an A-list actor who is being asked to molest his canine co-star.”
PETA went on to praise the actor, noting, “Robert Pattinson is our kind of guy (and everyone’s who has a heart) for refusing to masturbate a dog — which is like child molestation — and for talking about it so that the public can see that once again animal trainers’ top priority is money and animals’ interests and well-being are often ignored.” And while PETA said at the time it was “investigating whether the law was broken in this instance,” there’s no reason to further look into the matter because it was nothing more than a joke gone awry on a late-night talk show.
