A tabloid report claiming Angelina Jolie is “livid” she can’t travel with her six kids amid her custody battle with Brad Pitt is provably untrue. Gossip Cop can expose the magazine’s made-up story. There’s concrete evidence to debunk it.

According to OK!, the actress wants to take her children to London while she films the sequel to Maleficent, but “she’s not legally allowed” amid custody negotiations with her estranged husband. Had the unreliable outlet bothered to do a minimal amount of research, it would know that all six of Jolie’s kids have already joined her on the London set of Maleficent 2.

Last week, People correctly reported that the Pitt-Jolie children, who include Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara 13, Shiloh, 12, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 9, are going to school on the set of their mom’s Disney movie. A trailer has been designated to serve as the kids’ classroom, and they’ll be taught while the actress is busy shooting the film. In fact, Jolie was spotted landing in London with her kids in mid-May, almost two weeks before production on Maleficent 2 even began.

Additionally, a source close to the situation told Gossip Cop last week that the kids will spend the summer in London with Jolie, aside from “potentially one exception” where they’ll spend some “brief time in Los Angeles” with Pitt. Not only is it abundantly clear that OK! doesn’t have reliable sources for the famous exes, but it appears the tabloid doesn’t even keep up to date on real news about the pair. People, known to be a dependable entertainment publication, already made it clear that Jolie currently has her children overseas.

Last week, Gossip Cop busted a similarly untrue story surrounding the ex-couple’s arrangement when In Touch wrongly reported that Pitt “landed a victory” in their custody battle. The outlet falsely claimed that the Pitt-Jolie brood would be spending the summer with their dad in LA while he shoots the upcoming movie, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. As noted above, the children may visit Pitt at some point, but they’ll primarily be with their mom over the next several months.

Conclusion: There’s definitive proof to refute OK!’s claim that Jolie is “livid” she can’t travel with her kids. For starters, the actress was photographed arriving in London with her children last month. Meanwhile, all six kids will spend the summer on the set of their mom’s movie in the U.K., where they’ll take lessons while she shoots. Every aspect of the tabloid’s article is bogus.

Talk about evacuating the dance floor!

An FBI agent is under investigation after he accidentally shot someone at a Denver bar thanks to his wild dance moves.

The off-duty agent was busting moves at Mile High Spirits Distillery and Tasting Bar a little after midnight on Saturday when he attempted a backflip — causing his firearm to drop from his waistband holster and fall to the floor.

According to Denver police, an “unintended discharge occured” when the agent went to pick up the gun, and a bullet was fired right into another patron’s lower leg.

Fortunately, the adult male victim was treated for non-life-threatening injuries at a local hospital. Even more fortunately, the incident was all captured on camera!

Watch it go down (below):

The agent was taken to Denver Police Headquarters and later released to a FBI supervisor. The incident is being investigated by the Denver Police Homicide Unit and charges will be determined by the District Attorney’s Office.

Are Barbra Streisand and James Brolin really having marriage problems? That’s the latest claim coming from one of this week’s tabloids. Gossip Cop, however, can report it’s untrue.

According to Star, the couple has been “bickering nonstop” over recent “home improvements” on their Malibu mansion. A so-called “source” is quoted as telling the publication, “Barbra is constantly remodeling or adding structures to the property, but it comes out of her pocket.” The magazine’s supposed “insider” goes on to assert that the renovations have left Streisand and Brolin “sparring over their coin purses.”

“She’s asked James to contribute before, but he just says, ‘This is your baby, do it the way you want and pay for it,’” contends the tabloid’s questionable tipster. “They’re just at the age where they don’t care what the other thinks anymore. They push each other’s buttons without even trying,” concludes the magazine’s “spy.”

While every couple disagrees, at times, they are not fighting over home renovations. In fact, Streisand and Brolin, who are about to celebrate their 20-year wedding anniversary, are not having marriage problems. And when they do, they proactively work out their issues.

A few months ago, while discussing his and Streisand’s marriage Brolin said, “I do believe in counseling if anybody ever has a problem in their marriage… Bring in a referee, talk it over, and I swear to you, it will dispel by the end of the session, each time.” It stands to reason that if they were odds over “home improvements,” they would have worked it out rather than continue “bickering nonstop.”

Actually, far from being at odds, in a recent interview Streisand gushed about her husband. “I dated several people but when James came along it was different.” And part of what has made Brolin different is that they have a relatively easy relationship. Still, Gossip Cop looked into the claims and a source close to the couple assures us the tabloid’s article is “untrue.” Additionally, a rep for the legendary singer, actress and director says Streisand and Brolin have “never been happier.”

Star has a spotty track record when it comes to Streisand. For instance, Gossip Cop busted the tabloid in September 2017 when it maintained that she was upset about the upcoming remake of A Star In Born with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga. But when asked about the updated movie, Streisand said she’s seen parts of the new A Star Is Born, and said, “It’s very, very good.” Not very good, however, is the magazine’s reporting about Streisand.

Rihanna is “ignoring” all the untrue Hassan Jameel split stories, Gossip Cop has exclusively learned. As we were first to report, despite claims by lesser outlets, Rihanna has not dumped her boyfriend. The fake news was first spread by a site that over the years has falsely maintained, for example, that Rihanna was pregnant with Prince Harry and Leonardo DiCaprio’s babies.

On Friday, MediaTakeOut asserted Rihanna was “back on the market” because she “dumped” her super wealthy boyfriend. The often discredited outlet alleged the Barbadian singer and Ocean’s 8 star simply “got tired” of Jameel. Glaringly, the website had no details about when, how, or where the supposed breakup took place. Did she do it on Friday, the week before, or a month ago? Did Rihanna dump Jameel over the phone, by text, or in person? And if done by person, was it done in Los Angeles, Saudi Arabia or France?

The website had no answers to any of those Journalism 101 questions. And yet places like HollywoodLife and even respected magazines, including Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, readily picked up the report without bothering to fact-check. Nowhere in any of their articles is it mentioned that the alleged split was confirmed by Rihanna’s rep or any particular insider. Conversely, a mutual acquaintance of the singer and Gossip Cop assured us on background that talk of Rihanna having split with Jameel was “untrue.”

Even though the false rumor was picked up and republished by several outlets, Gossip Cop’s impeccable insider says Rihanna is “ignoring” the inaccurate stories. Nor is she going out of her way to debunk the inaccurate articles. We’re told Rihanna prefers to keep her relationship with Jameel private, but eventually it will be obvious the reports are wrong. To date, with a few exceptions such as when Rihanna and Jameel were hanging out on a balcony in Paris, the two have rarely been photographed together.

And perhaps Rihanna is right to ignore the noise because MediaFakeOut’s initial report has spawned a number of wholly fabricated tales. In fact, HollywoodLife exposes its questionable practices with a new story titled, “Rihanna: Would She Take Chris Brown Back If She’s Really Split From Hassan? The Truth, Says Source.” While clearly trying to find a new angle, the site alleges to know whether Rihanna would take back Chris Brown, who plead guilty in 2009 to assaulting her.

The often discredited outlet, which is nicknamed HollywoodLies because of its penchant for fabricating, acknowledges that it’s unsure “if [Rihanna’s] really split from Hassan.” It further references “reports of a breakup” and notes it doesn’t know for certain “if she is indeed a single lady once again.” Yet, after admitting it’s unsure whether Rihanna actually split with Jameel, it claims to have a “Rihanna” source. Of course, if HollywoodLies truly had a Rihanna “source” it would know for sure whether the singer and Jameel split instead of saying “reports of a breakup.” Perhaps Rihanna’s tact is right, and it’s best to ignore all the fake news written about her.

Are George and Amal Clooney renewing their vows? That’s the premise of a tabloid report that claims the actor caught “wedding fever” while attending Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s nuptials. After investigating, Gossip Cop can separate fact from fiction on this story.

According to the New Zealand edition of Woman’s Day, the Clooneys’ “recent attendance at the royal wedding gave their relationship a much-needed jolt.” It’s specifically alleged that George was “so overcome while watching Prince Harry and the Duchess of Sussex get hitched that he popped the question to his surprised wife.” A so-called “friend” is quoted as saying, “He was so happy at the wedding that he got down on bended knee to ask Amal to marry him again that night. It started as a joke, but now they’re going ahead with the plan.”

The outlet contends the couple will “mark their upcoming anniversary in September with a two-day celebration at their Lake Como palazzo.” Claims the purported pal, “They will hold a 30-minute ceremony, but it will be more a celebration of their love.” This supposed source continues, “They each plan to give a speech on how their life has changed since they got married and they will renew their commitment to each other in front of their children.” Maintains the publication, “Such is the power of a royal wedding.”

While there’s no disputing Prince Harry and Markle’s big day was a moving event, it’s telling that not one reputable media resource has reported that George “proposed” again to “his ray of sunshine at the royal nuptials.” In fact, People’s report on the wedding reception shared that George helped bartend during the evening bash, but said nothing about a “romantic surprise” from him during the festivities. Us Weekly similarly reported that George was handing out shots of his Casamigos tequila at the party, but made no mention of a “shock proposal” to Amal.

As for the Clooneys now planning a “wedding rerun,” while the tabloid relies on an anonymous and untraceable “friend,” a rep for the couple exclusively tells Gossip Cop on the record that this story about a royals-inspired vow renewal is “not true.” It’s worth noting this is now the second time the magazine has spread misinformation related to a milestone for the pair. Back in February, we busted Woman’s Day for falsely claiming George rented a private island for Amal’s 40th birthday. Just as that didn’t happen, fans shouldn’t expect the Clooneys to renew their vows for their upcoming anniversary, either.

As far as Kanye West is concerned, it appears the ongoing beef between Pusha T and Drake may just be over… for good!

The Chicago rapper sent out a tweet late last night that was broad and general — it never mentioned either Pusha T or Drake by name — but the contents of which suggest he was referring to finishing the ongoing feud once and for all.

Just hours after releasing new music to the masses, West returned to Twitter overnight with this message — which everyone is taking to be about Drake and Pusha T (below):

I’ve never been about beef I’m about love lines were crossed and it’s not good for anyone so this is dead now

Well there you go!

And so, Kanye grants it, and so it shall be.

Is this beef over, Perezcious readers?!

Was Kanye even talking about the beef, or was he referring to something else??

Kate Hudson is not expecting twin girls, contrary to a report that’s both late and wrong. Gossip Cop actually already debunked this claim back in April. We can now set the record straight again.

“K-Hud’s Surprise! It’s Twin Girls,” reads an inaccurate headline in the new issue of NW. According to the article, Hudson has always wanted to have a daughter, but she has “even more reason to celebrate as rumor has it” she and boyfriend Danny Fujikawa are “actually expecting twin girls.” The tabloid contends the actress is “keeping quiet on the news that she’s actually got two buns in the oven.”

Of course, the phrase “rumor has it” is a tip-off that the magazine has no first-hand knowledge or direct confirmation. In fact, as the story goes on, the outlet cites the OK! article we busted a month and a half ago, and quotes from there, “A subsequent ultrasound revealed she’d be welcoming not one daughter but two.” NW has no independent reporting to add. Instead, it relies entirely on the old, debunked story to fill out its own report.

As Gossip Cop pointed out then, the actress has made clear she is only carrying one child. For example, on Hudson’s Instagram in April, just two days before the original “twins” claim was first published, she wrote about hanging out with close pal Steven Tyler, captioning a photo, “Baby girl got some good hugs from Papa Tyler this weekend.” Note that Hudson said “baby girl” singular, not “baby girls” plural. Indeed, in a subsequent Instagram post on May 1, she wrote about expecting “number three,” not “three and four.”

Furthermore, when Hudson spoke to People last month about her third pregnancy, she said that she’ll still be “outnumbered” in her home because she and her future daughter are still less in number than the males, Fujikawa and her two sons. Obviously, if she was really expecting twin girls, as alleged, the gender ratio would be balanced three and three. And just a week ago, Hudson shared on Instagram a photo of her bare bump with the hashtag, “#Shesgettingbig.” Notably, she didn’t say, “They’re getting big.”

Conclusion: OK! was the first to claim, albeit wrongly, in April that Hudson is expecting twins. Now NW is belatedly repeating the contention in June. Despite the passage of time, the magazine has no new evidence to prove the allegation is correct, and no reputable outlet has offered corroboration. In contrast, there is more proof from Hudson herself that she is having just one baby girl. And while the publication conveniently contends she’s “keeping [it] quiet” that she has two babies on the way, it suspiciously never offers a reason why. As a result, Gossip Cop has determined this twins storyline is still untrue.
