Liam Hemsworth’s friends are not annoyed that Miley Cyrus supposedly tags along on all of their surfing sessions, despite a made-up tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively debunk this bogus claim. We’re told it’s total nonsense.

“Miley & Liam Reach Point Break,” reads a headline in the latest issue of Star. The accompanying article says the actor’s pals are tired of his fiancee constantly being around when he hits the waves with them. A so-called “source” tells the magazine, “Liam’s friends love Miley, but they don’t always enjoy the attention that comes with hanging out with her.”

The outlet’s questionable insider goes on to say that the beach gets swarmed by Cyrus’ fans and the paparazzi whenever she’s around, which ruins the good vibes. “Miley and Liam are joined at the hip,” adds the alleged tipster. “Surfing is the only time the guys can get him alone. They’re just asking for a little bro time.”

But Gossip Cop checked in with a source close to the situation, who dismissed the tabloid’s story as being completely “false.” We’re told Cyrus doesn’t tag along with her fiance every time he goes surfing, nor do his friends mind when she does accompany them. Additionally, Hemsworth is frequently spotting surfing without Cyrus in tow. Regardless, there’s no truth to the magazine’s account of the situation.

Unfortunately, we’re not particularly surprised by Star’s phony story. Gossip Cop often has to call out the publication for making up stories about Cyrus and Hemsworth’s relationship. We previously busted the outlet for wrongly reporting that the couple was constantly fighting over whether to live in Australia or Los Angeles. Shortly before that fabrication, the unreliable tabloid falsely claimed that Cyrus was pregnant with Hemsworth’s baby, but he refused to marry her.

It’s also worth noting, this isn’t the first time that Star has accused Cyrus of being needy. The tabloid recently alleged that the singer had repeatedly called her fiance while he was in a business meeting to request that he bring home sushi. Naturally, Gossip Cop was assured that no such incident ever occurred. This latest article about Hemsworth’s friends being bothered by Cyrus coming along on surfing excursions is equally untrue.

Alyson Hannigan and Alexis Denisof’s marriage is not “on the rocks,” despite a new tabloid report. Gossip Cop can correct this fabrication. We’re told it’s “not true.”

According to OK!, close friends of Hannigan and Denisof are “starting to fear” their 14-year marriage “may be crumbling” after the couple recently listed two of their California properties over the past year. A so-called “source” is quoted as telling the gossip magazine, “Everyone is worried that they’re unloading assets to simplify their finances in advance of a divorce.” The publication’s alleged “insider” goes on to assert, “It’s sad. They had a lot of good years there.”

The outlet further claims the actress has “struggled to find work after wrapping ‘How I Met Your Mother’ in 2014,” and it’s taking a toll on her relationship with Denisof. “It’s like her career came to a crashing halt, and that’s been hard for them. They were so happy for so long, but lately things don’t look good,” adds the tabloid’s questionable “source.”

While it’s true Hannigan and Denisof recently listed their Santa Monica home, their marriage is certainly not “on the rocks,” and any claims made otherwise are completely false. A source close to the couple tells Gossip Cop the report is 100 percent “not true.” Additionally, just because the couple sold one of their properties doesn’t mean they’re on the verge of breaking up. In 2017, Hannigan and Denisof listed their Brentwood estate for $ 8.1 million and remain happily married. If anything, the tabloid’s talk about Hannigan having a hard time finding work is a more reasonable explanation for selling a home.

This is hardly the first time Gossip Cop has corrected OK! for publishing a bogus story about a celebrity couple’s relationship being “on the rocks.” The magazine likes to spread those claims, but rarely are they true. In 2017, for example, the magazine falsely alleged Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz were “on the rocks.” That was 100 percent wrong and so is the latest article about Hannigan and her husband. Here’s a story Gossip Cop would like to see from that tabloid: How I Met A Fact-Checker.

“Life is pain” is often the theme of a parent teaching a wayward teenager or a drill sergeant carving a soldier and in some ways, they are absolutely correct. As we make our way through life, we endure all kinds of pain from broken hearts, broken bones, tainted souls, and life-saving surgery.

The majority of us know what it is like to endure the painful consequences of a car wreck. That includes the physical and the legal. However, most of the time we view emotional injury as more devastating. Below are a few famous artists that prove they identify by helping us sing away the pain.

Eagles – Heartache Tonight

If you are one of the millions of people who grew up listening to the sounds of the Eagles, you will be more than familiar with Heartache Tonight. In this song, there is a common situation painted for us on the canvas of song.
‘
There is one on the hunt for love in a sea of already coupled lovers. Whether he/she finds it, as the song says, “there’s gonna be a heartache tonight.” This song speaks to all of us. We have all looked for love and went home empty or found it and lost it on the same night.

Some of us manage to hold onto it for years and then tragically lose out. Either way, every member of the Eagles knew the lasting effects of a heartache and made sure they could help us sing it away.

Matthew West – Mended

In every life, there are times when we question whether or not what we have been through has wrecked us beyond compare. Are we worth anything anymore?

Has life finally tore us down so low that we are no longer of any benefit to the world around us? In his song, “Mended,” Matthew West shows us how to cry out for the healing of a heart that has been broken more times than we thought was even possible.

His music brings us to perceive ourselves as something better than the damaged goods we see in the mirror. As life tears us down, West attempts to sing us back from the dead offering healing for our pain riddled selves.

Kutless – Even If

As we walk through the trials of living a human life, there will be moments that the healing we were expecting just doesn’t come. Anyone who has ever lost someone to cancer, lived on the streets, or suffered through a divorce knows how this can feel.

Kutless addresses the very sensitive topic in their song, “Even If,” making sure that their listeners know that even if the healing doesn’t come, there is still hope.

In a time of life where things look blacker than the cold depths of outer space, Kutless offers music that can give us the motivation to keep moving making this song a lifeline that stretches beyond healing to full restoration.

Pain is a reality of life. We all endure our fair share. Some more than others. The next time you arrive at the crossroads of suffering in your life, turn to one of these three artists for a soothing balm on that aching heart.

Did Karlie Kloss invite Katy Perry onto her TV show because Taylor Swift refused to appear? A report claims Swift turned down an invitation, leading the model to book Perry “out of spite.” Gossip Cop looked into the story.

According to Star, Swift “banished” Kloss from her “squad” after she invited “rival” Perry to appear on Freeform’s “Movie Night With Karlie Kloss.” The series features the model playing games, baking and chatting with famous pals while the network broadcasts a beloved movie, such as “Never Been Kissed.” Participants have included Kaia Gerber, Victoria Justice, Jourdan Dunn, Ruby Rose, Ashley Graham and Kendall Jenner, among others.

But the tabloid alleges that when Swift was given the opportunity to be a guest, she let her longtime friend down. “For months, Karlie begged Taylor to be on the show, but she kept giving excuses,” a so-called “mutual friend” is quoted as saying. It’s unclear why a purported pal would be talking to the gossip media, and it’s not said what the supposed “excuses” were.

Nevertheless, the outlet’s alleged tipster asserts Kloss was “fed up,” and “not-so-gently reminded” Swift how she’s been a “shoulder to cry on” through various trials and tribulations, such as breakups, the singer’s sexual harassment case and her feud with Kim Kardashian. But the publication maintains Swift was “incensed” that Kloss was allegedly trying to guilt her into appearing on the program and “blocked her bestie.” Blocked her on social media? Blocked her on her cell phone? The tabloid doesn’t say.

But the magazine’s specious “source” goes on to claim Kloss was “hurt and shocked,” so “out of spite, she had Katy on her show.” Yet no episode has aired featuring Perry, nor was she one of the many celebrities listed as guest stars when “Movie Night” was announced last October. The show also hasn’t been broadcast in weeks and no future airings have been publicly scheduled as of yet.

Here’s what appears to be going on: When the series was first announced last fall, The Blast reported Swift “politely declined” to take part in “Move Night” due to “scheduling issues.” Fast-forward to earlier this month, when Kloss and Perry hung out together. It seems Star has now decided to combine those two separate things to form this narrative about Kloss bringing Perry onto her show to get back at Swift for not agreeing to appear. But this version of events is unsupported.

No credible publication has reported Swift and Kloss having a dispute over the program, a claim the singer’s camp denies. There’s also currently no indication Perry will be making an appearance on “Movie Night.” Furthermore, the tabloid has a documented history of concocting friendship woes involving such stars. Last September, for example, the magazine falsely claimed Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively had a falling out all because of Swift. The outlet might like to write about “bad blood” with Swift and other female celebrities, but its stories are often unsubstantiated.

Grieving in China just got a whole lot lamer.

It’s been reported that Chinese authorities are cracking down on funeral strippers, an actual tactic some rural families use to incentivise more people to pay their respects to the dead.

While families believe hiring entertainment to boost attendance is a way of honoring their loved ones, the country’s Ministry of Culture sees the act as more of a dishonor.

Ministry buzzkills are now targeting “striptease” and other “obscene, pornographic and vulgar performances” at funerals and weddings across the country.

Ugh, what’s even the point in dying now?

This announcement follows reports in the state run Global Times newspaper about unruly crowds applauding and cursing as women sauntered in front of funeral caskets.

Hiring entertainment for funerals is a longstanding practice in rural China, as households are known to pay several times their annual income for actors, singers, and comedians to comfort the mourners. Only recently have families begun to hire strippers.

The ministry has set up hotlines to offer rewards to those who report these “funeral misdeeds,” so it looks like this practice will reach its climax prematurely.

A new report about how Angelina Jolie feels “vindicated” after Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux’s split is entirely made-up. Gossip Cop can correct this piece of fake news.

According to the serial fibbers at HollywoodLife, Jolie is “feeling a sense of vindication” that she had “nothing to do” with Aniston and Theroux’s split. A so-called “source” is quoted as telling the website, “Angelina makes a point to not read or follow any celebrity gossip, but it was inevitable she would hear about Jennifer and Justin’s break-up at some point.” The outlet’s dubious “insider” continues to claim that the actress “has never cared for Jen, even before she started dating Brad.”

But that’s not all. The online publication’s supposed “source” is further quoted as saying, “[Jolie has] always thought of her as very vanilla and shallow, and not on her level intellectually,” before adding, “Whereas Justin is quirky and edgy and super smart, so Angelina wasn’t surprised to learn they had split.” And to conclude its tall tale, the outlet’s questionable tipster goes on to purport, “Angelina can’t help feeling a degree of vindication, after all, she was painted as this evil home wrecker who lured Brad away from Jen. Nobody can point the finger at Angelina this time, or any other ‘wicked’ third party.”

Of course, as Gossip Cop has pointed out on numerous occasions, no one in Jolie’s camp spoke to the aptly nicknamed HollywoodLies about her reaction to Aniston’s split from Theroux. In fact, her alleged response to the high profile break-up is completely bogus, as it’s hard to believe Aniston’s split from Theroux made Jolie feel “vindicated.” Evidently, it’s clear Aniston and Theroux’s separation had nothing to do with Aniston and Pitt’s 2005 split because of Jolie.

What’s more, the unreliable website amusingly claims it has a Jolie “insider,” but as we’ve noted in the past, the bad blog has manufactured a slew of stories about her being on the verge of marrying a mystery British billionaire, who never even existed. Clearly, HollywoodLies isn’t to be trusted with any of its Jolie articles, particularly the ones involving Aniston.

The entire article is made-up from start to finish, complete with fake quotes from a seemingly fake insider who can’t even decide if Aniston is “Jen” or “Jennifer.” Still, Gossip Cop checked in with a source close to Jolie, who tells us the report is “nonsense.” .

Kylie Jenner has split from Travis Scott and is now a single mom, according to a completely wrong tabloid story. Gossip Cop can debunk the report. While they won’t be walking down the aisle any time soon, the new parents are still a couple.

But Heat is announcing in a headline, “Kylie Begins Life As A Single Mum.” The gossip magazine asserts that while Jenner is back in the spotlight following the birth of daughter Stormi, it’s “without her baby daddy” because Scott has “cooled things off between them.” A so-called “source” contends, “He’s not ready to settle down or put his career on the back burner.” This supposed source alleges that “even though he and Kylie are over, he’s told her he’ll try not to be seen out with any other girls.”

“Things are up in the air in terms of visitation, but he’s promised to financially contribute,” the outlet’s alleged tipster continues. “The negotiations haven’t been easy, because Travis was absent throughout quite a lot of the pregnancy.” As for Jenner’s perspective, the purported snitch claims she’s “tried everything to get Travis in line, but nothing worked… Kylie thought he might change his mind after the birth, but he hasn’t and she feels betrayed.” And although Scott appeared in the home video Jenner released to announce Stormi’s arrival, the publication maintains his alleged “absence[s] caused issues between the pair.”

Tellingly, though, the tabloid makes no mention of its January article that claimed Jenner was not only dumped by Scott, but that she was moving to New York to get over him. Just like now, the magazine deemed her a “single mum,” and that was weeks before Stormi’s birth. This new piece says nothing about a cross-country move. That’s probably because Jenner never had any intention of making one and the contention was entirely made-up by the outlet.

The publication was also wrong about Scott dumping Jenner then and is still wrong now about the pair being “over.” Just a few days ago, Scott and Jenner were cozy in a photo he posted on Snapchat. Clearly, while he may not be by her side 24 hours a day, seven days a week, he hasn’t ended their relationship and abandoned the reality star.

On the contrary, while Scott and Jenner aren’t making plans for the future, they are currently happy together with their baby girl and committed to staying a couple for the foreseeable future. Although they may not end up going the distance, this split report is rather premature, just like the previous one.

Poor Colton Haynes.

The Arrow star shared the sad news on Tuesday that his mother, who has been in and out of the hospital since January, was diagnosed with “advanced cirrhosis of the liver & kidney failure.”

And unfortunately it’s too late for a liver transplant. Colton shared:

“The doctors suggested that we now focus on my mother’s quality of life rather than quantity of life. It’s heartbreaking. My strong mother has always been the anchor of this family and our best friend. Now we’re being forced to say goodbye to her.”

So awful. See the rest of the heartbreaking post (below):

My mom, Dana, always loves to laugh. Even when her liver & kidney doctors gave us the worst news you could get, my mom looked at us and said, “The best thing to do in these situations is to laugh.” She then chuckled so loud you could hear it to the other end of the hospital. That’s my mom. Shes funny, bull headed, & strong. My mom has been in and out of the hospital since January. After multiple tests we found out she actually has advanced cirrhosis of the liver & kidney failure. A diagnosis that can be cured with a liver transplant.. however..that bad news I mentioned before was that she doesn’t have that much time to wait for a new liver. The doctors suggested that we now focus on my mother’s quality of life rather than quantity of life. It’s heartbreaking. My strong mother has always been the anchor of this family and our best friend. Now we’re being forced to say goodbye to her. So with that horrible news from “Dr. Doom” (a name my mom came up for him) my family has set up steps to make mom comfortable. We set up in home hospice care so she can be home with her boyfriend, Gary, and her beloved cat, Fasa. Hospice care is covered by my moms insurance 100%. As well as nurses visits on a “need be” basis. A personal in home nurse that can be there 24/7, however, is not covered and would need to be paid out of pocket. My siblings and family are spread out around the country and world. We’ve been taking turns flying out when we can to help but it’s not enough. My brother wanted to do his part to help with the expense of hiring a full time nurse & guess what…the gofundme goal has been reached to pay for Amity Home Care in Hemet California! Now that the goal has been reached…every single penny we raise over the goal from today on will be donated to the American Liver Foundation to help others who are going through this horrible disease. It would mean the world to my family & I if we could make a massive donation to this incredible organization. Thank y’all for listening & sending all the love to my beautiful momma. Donation link in my bio ❤❤❤A post shared by Colton Haynes-Leatham (@coltonlhaynes) on Feb 20, 2018 at 1:46pm PST

If you don’t know who Lindsay Lohan is, then you may have lived under a rock for the last 10 years. Love her or hate her, she’s had no shortage of articles written about her or stories on the television. Known as Hollywood’s bad girl, better remembered for her checkered past than her acting, she is one of the most controversial actresses of our time.

Sure we’ve been entertained watching her dramatic encounters with the law as we flip through gossip mags, but beyond entertainment, what have her mistakes taught us? When it comes to what we’ve learned from Lindsay Lohan, here are the things that stick out the most.

Don’t Drink And Drive

More than once Lindsay Lohan infamously brushed with the law doing things that were illegal. Most famously driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Not only was she caught, but it continued to happen even after going to court.

What we learned from watching her be seemingly incapable of ordering a cab despite her hefty salary, is that driving under the influence of substances is a really bad idea. Not only will you find yourself potentially in a lot of trouble with the law, but you may get into a car accident which leads to serious injury or fatality.

Blondes Don’t Always Have More Fun

Lindsay is known for her red hair and freckles. Although for a short time she decided to dip her toes into the world of being blonde. Most people agreed that the look washed her out and made her look nothing short of ill.

Even though there may be a misconception that blondes have more fun, her blonde stage may have been one of the worst during her peak bad-girl stage. Passing out in cars, missing court dates, and getting into trouble at rehab are just a few of the things she got into. We learned that sometimes a zebra is meant to have stripes and Lindsay Lohan is meant to be a redhead.

Show Up When You Get A Court Order

Lindsay refused to show up when her judge told her it was time to start taking things seriously. We learned that even when you’re a celebrity there is no special treatment if you refuse to listen to a judge’s orders.

If you are ordered to show up at a certain time in court then take her experience as an example and do yourself the favor of showing up.

Rehab Doesn’t Always Do The Trick

Regardless of how many times she was sent to rehab, we saw that it didn’t necessarily do the trick. Some people are so set on a good time that even after being in a program they can’t seem to resist the urge to party.
