Nina Agdal and Jeremy Piven "Definitely Flirting" With Each Other During Charity Event

Is there love in the air or just some friendly competition? Black Juddy learns that there was chemistry between supermodel Nina Agdal and Jeremy Piven during their charity event in New York City yesterday. "They were definitely flirting and chatting a quite a bit, although that's not out of character for Jeremy," the source tells us. However, Piven may have been trying to psych his opponent out. The duo, as well as special guest actor and comedian Mario Cantone, competed in the first ever Kiehl's Since 1851 "Ride for Charity" event. If that was the Entourage star's motives, it didn't work. Nina competed in 60-second cycling competitions on Flywheel bikes at the NYC Kiehl's Flagship store against Jeremy, Mario and consumers, and was the clear champion, beating both Jeremy and Mario, while raising funds for Food Bank for NYC. "Had so much fun riding for charity @FoodBank4NYC with @Flywheel @Kiehls thanks to @jeremypiven for competing with me," Agdal tweeted. Piven responded, "I want a rematch." The event, which raised a total of $5,000 for the Food Bank for NYC, provided 25,000 meals for families in need.

The Samsung S5's Self-Defense Mechanism May Surprise You

Ah, the Samsung S5. One of the most elusive creatures in the world. To get a good look at such an animal, one must go through great lengths...traveling to the store, speaking with a sales person, paying money, etc. But, if you ever get to see an S5 up close DO NOT ATTACK IT! The S5 has a surprising defense mechanism. We love the quick thinking on the part of the reviewer, as we all know the only way to combat chemical poisoning is to spray Febreze directly into your mouth. That should be Febreze's new slogan. "Febreze: Spray it Directly into Your Mouth if You Smash a Phone and Accidentally Breathe In Its Chemical Discharge That Is Definitely Going to Give You Cancer."

Beyoncé and Jay Z Celebrate Wedding Anniversary With Dominican Republic Getaway

Beyoncé and Jay Z sure like to express their love on the beach. The power couple celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary with a tropical getway to the Dominican Republic, Black Juddy confirms. Although the pair have kept their romantic trip private, Bey did share a fresh-faced photo of herself rocking a bikini by the water. Blue Ivy's mama flashed her famous smile while her wild curls blew in the wind. Additionally, spotted at Casa de Compo resort in the Dominican Republic on Saturday. A source tells Black Juddy, "They were sitting at the bar," adding that at one point, Jay Z tapped a man on the back who was "wearing a Brooklyn Nets shirt, and said 'cool shirt man.' " The insider also noted that the couple looked happy and in love, and sharing that Beyoncé "looked beautiful" (as if we would think otherwise). On Sunday, Jay Z was seen enjoying his proud papa duties by pushing baby Blue Ivy on a swing at the playground. So cute! Bey recently finished her long-running Mrs. Carter Show World Tour. The 32-year-old musician has performed more than 100 concerts, first taking the stage on Apr. 15, 2013 in Belgrade, Serbia, and couldn't help but get emotional during her final show in Portugal. "I want a [spotlight]. I want them to see me," she said. "If you all don't know, tonight makes 132 shows. Tonight is the last show of the Mrs. Carter Show. We started a year ago and I want to say this has been such a journey. In the past year, we've been through so much together. The Super Bowl, shooting the videos, all of these shows. When I first started the tour, my baby was not even walking yet. I just want you to know that I am so lucky." She added, "I'm giving y'all an ugly cry." Not possible.

Giuliana Rancic Promises That Season Finale of Giuliana & Bill "Will Shock a Lot of People"

Giuliana and Bill Rancic are already parents to one fantastic child. But whether or not son Duke is going to be having a baby brother or sister anytime soon is the question that's on everybody's mind! "Duke was a blessing. We tried for years to have Duke and wea went through three IVF cycles," Giuliana told reporters Tuesday during the NBC Summer Press Day while discussing the seventh season of Giuliana and Bill, which premiered April 1 and promises to take up that very question in upcoming episodes. "And it was on the third IVF cycle that I found out I had breast cancer and that was, obviously, a very scary time. And when Duke finally came along, a year after my diagnosis, through a surrogate, it was an incredible day." The relentlessly adorable Edward "Duke" Rancic turned 1 on Aug. 29. "We definitely don't take having children for granted," Giuliana continued. "We realize what an incredible gift it is. So we asked our surrogate in the first episode if she would do it again and she did want to do it again, so all we can say really about that is...I wish we had a more definitive answer." Curses! No spoilers today. "But," G said, "just like everything else in our lives there's ups and downs this season. Even with the whole trying to have a second baby, it's a bit of a rollercoaster ride of emotions this season. So episode 10, the finale, I think will shock a lot of people because it's very different from episode one." Don't miss new episodes of Giuliana and Bill on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on E!

Johnny Depp has denied rumors suggesting that he and his 27-year-old fiancee Amber Heardare expecting a child. In an interview with " Today" show aired on Friday, April 4, Savannah Guthrie mentioned the baby rumor, saying, "I feel a little guilty for asking this, but there is a story out there [today] that you guys are expecting." "Expecting what? A child? Good god, what do you think I am, a savage?" he replied with a smile. "[It's] not a shotgun affair." The " Transcendence" star also said of his fiancee, "She's a wonderful girl. She's sharp as a tack. A southern belle and sweet as can be, and very good for me." In a separate interview with " Late Show with David Letterman" aired on Thursday, the actor explained why he wore Heard's ring. "It was too big for my girl. So I put it on. She has the other one that fits," he shared. "I think people are scared to comment. 'Why? Why is a grown man wearing a woman's engagement ring?' Because it fit." Depp also talked about Heard's father David Heard during the episode. "He's about the closest thing to Hunter S. Thompson I've ever met. We get along well," he shared, referring to the author whose novel was adapted into 2011's " The Rum Diary".

Shakira Clears Up Comment About Boyfriend Being 'Territorial'

Shakira retracted her comment about boyfriend Gerard Pique after realizing that people did not see what she actually meant. The pop star clarified the interview that she did with Billboard a month ago in which she said her man was "very territorial". In the interview, the 37-year-old said, "Since he no longer lets me do videos with men, well, I have to do them with women." She added, "It's more than implied in our relationship that I can't do videos like I used to." Shakira has since received backlash over the comment and she took it to Facebook on Thursday, April 3 to clear the air a bit. "I was being humorous and now I see that some press took it very literally!" she wrote. "The reality is that we have a beautiful relationship of mutual trust, and jealousy has never been an issue on either side." The " The Voice" mentor went on adding, "I'll be more careful when attempting to use my sense of humor, as clearly it can be easily misinterpreted!"

Chris Martin Reportedly Cheated on Gwyneth Paltrow With 'SNL' Assistant

Extra marital affair is still blamed as the cause of Gwyneth Paltrowand Chris Martin's split. This time, a report surfaced that Martin was the one cheating on Paltrow with a production assistant on " Saturday Night Live". According to NY Post, Martin flirted with the unnamed assistant back in 2011 when Coldplaywas invited as "SNL" musical guest. In the episode, Martin made an appearance on "Weekend Update" with Fred Armisenand Kristen Wiig. An NBC source explained, "He had an affair with a woman who was backstage and was part of an entourage. Everyone was talking about it because he was openly flirting with her at one of the show after-parties." Paltrow's rep refused to comment on the report, telling the Post, "I don't rep Chris so I cannot address those accusations." The actress herself has been the object of affair rumors. She has denied through her rep an affair with Miami billionaire Jeff Soffer and entertainment lawyer Rick Yorn. "We have time and time again denied any romantic relationship with Jeff Soffer and Gwyneth. Your source is either wrong or fake. We will no longer be addressing the insane rumors that have been started by gossips," the rep said.

'S.H.I.E.L.D.' Recruits 'Heroes' Alum Adrian Pasdar to Be Glenn Talbot

Adrian Pasdar is dealing with super-powered humans again. The " Heroes" alum joins " Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." to play Glenn Talbot, whom comic book fans know as the man who spent years hunting the Incredible Hulk. First look at the actor in character has been revealed as well. In a picture, he is seen donning Tablot's signature moustache and military garb. Speaking of his character's full costume, Pasdar tells Marvel.com, "It's hard to look serious in that hat, man. You look like a New Jersey State Trooper if you wear it wrong. Nothing wrong with New Jersey State Troopers, but the outfits are a little funny. Just wearing that Air Force hat, you really gotta be able to pull that off." He goes on sharing that he will wear fake mustache for the role. "...the moustache, we spent a long time on that, a couple of days," he reveals. "That was probably a thorn in the side to make-up and hair people. I had a week to prepare and as macho as I like to think I am, there's just no way I can grow that mustache in a week so we had to cut up a $400 dollar mustache and try it on knowing that it might fail and there's not always room to do that in the make-up department." Asked what to expect from his character's appearance, Pasdar coyly says, "Every show needs a jerk, [and] I guess I'm that guy. I make everybody else look so nice. I think it was Walt Disney who said it, 'The show's only as good as the bad guy is bad.' " Pasdar will first appear in an episode that will air in April. He hints at Talbot's possible return, saying, "As willing as I am to jump when Jeph [Loeb, Marvel TV president] calls, there had to be a little bit more in it than just an episode for me. I can't say much more but the mustache is in a locker and it's being taken out and prepped as we speak for next week." "S.H.I.E.L.D." airs Tuesdays at 8 P.M. on ABC. The show recently tapped Emmy-nominated actor Bill Paxtonto play Agent Garrett.

Lil Wayne: 'Tha Carter V' Is My Last Solo Album

Lil Wayne is going to retire from rap after he puts out his next album, " Tha Carter V". The rapper said in an interview with MTV News, "I personally plan on this being my final solo album, yes and it's definitely the final Carter album. It's the final Carter album. It's stopping at five." Wayne then revealed that he'd been working really hard on the forthcoming record, which is expected to be dropped in May. "It seems like it will be impossible for me to work this hard again for anything else," he continued. After releasing "Tha Carter V", the Louisiana-born star is not going to completely leave the rap business. He said he would still make guest appearances in the projects of other artists, especially his YMCMB family. "Whenever I have to pitch in for a Young Money album, a ' Like Father, Like Son' album and something like that and maybe something out the blue," he explained and added that it would take "25 to 35 million" to convince him to do another solo album. Wayne recently released "Young Money: Rise of an Empire" compilation album. The record features contributions from the likes of Drake, Nicki Minaj, Tygaas well as newcomers Euro, PJ Morton and Chanel West Coast.

The two people who were killed in the accident reportedly were on the moped. Photographer Colin Kerrigan was on the scene when the accident took place.

Ellie Goulding Debuts Video for 'Beating Heart' From 'Divergent'

Ellie Goulding has debuted the music video for "Beating Heart", a song which will be featured in upcoming movie " Divergent". The clip was premiered when the British beauty visited MTV's studio with Shailene Woodley and Theo Jameson Wednesday, March 12. In the four-minute visuals, Goulding is featured singing the song while walking around a forest in a black dress. She sports a bird tattoo on her collarbone, similar to that of Woodley's character Tris, and some other tattoos on her back. " 'Beating Heart' is about being away from someone or knowing that you're always going to have to be apart from someone that you really love," Ellie has told MTV News. "And it's painful, but it's hopeful because there's always a chance that they'll collide again like two people collide. Like the universe will bring them back together. I think the song is basically that. Sort of relying on the fact that if you're meant to be drawn back together you will be." During her appearance in the Wednesday, March 12 episode of " Today" show, Goulding revealed that she didn't specifically write "Beating Heart" for "Divergent". "I had the song, and I performed it and recorded it, and I had given it to Greg Kurstin to produce it," she told host Matt Lauer. "I didn't know they were gonna use it for the film, but actually, when I thought about it, I thought it was kind of perfect, and it really suited the whole theme," she added. She then took the stage of the morning show to perform an acoustic version of the track.

The Bachelor's Nikki "Happy Just Dating" Juan Pablo "for Now"--What Comes Next?

Juan Pablo Galavis didn't propose to Nikki in Monday's two-hour Bachelor finale, but he did give her that final rose. It's tough to say what's next for these two, who confirmed on Monday's After the Final Rose special that they are still in a relationship, although Juan Pablo still hasn't say "I love you." Black Juddy exclusively learned that NIkki's OK with not hearing the L-word just yet, and that "for now, she's happy just dating him." After Monday's finale, Juan Pablo, Nikki, and a few former contestants (including Chelsea, Kelly, Kat, Sharlene, and Lucy) hit up Hollywood restaurant Wood & Vine. Bachelorette alum Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried also tagged along. A source tells Black Juddy Juan Pablo and Nikki were "really affectionate" and "really cute together. They seem happy, despite what people may think." Once the finale fun was all behind them, Juan Pablo and Nikki headed to Miami. "They're going to be there for a few days," says a source, "She will be staying with him. After that, they're headed to the Dominican Republic for a vacation." NEWS: The Bachelor finale recap BTW, these two are footing the bill for this trip by themselves, according to an insider. "ABC is done with them, and the feeling is mutual," adds a source, noting that the pair "took an Uber car home from the taping [of the finale]" and refused a car ABC had booked for them. So we probably won't be seeing a Juan Pablo-Nikki wedding special anytime in the future. Then again, Juan Pablo's "not 100 percent sure" he wants to propose to her, just "100 percent sure I don't want to let you go." But after their self-funded vacay, where will they go?! "He told her to pick a city and they'd move there," says an insider. (Juan Pablo is currently living with his family in Miami, while Nikki's based in Kansas City.) "Not sure how realistic that is," admits a source, "but that's what he said to her." One possible setback? "She really loves her job [pediatric nurse] and she's not going to quit until she knows it's really serious." But Juan Pablo and Nikki are truly "into each other," says a source. "In person, it's easier to see their chemistry...Nikki says it's a REAL relationship. It's not fake. So, yes, they fight...But they make up." Nikki's friends have their doubts, though and reportedly "think she's going to get her heart broken."

Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas "Talking About Marriage," Kate Middleton Offering Advice

It sounds like Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas are moving closer to marriage! The 29-year-old royal and his 25-year-old girlfriend have already started planning for their future together, a royal source reveals exclusively to E! News. "Harry and Cressida have made a point of talking about marriage and what changes they're going to have to make to their life of late," the source says. "According to friends of Cressida's, the couple have decided to try and keep their semi normal lifestyle as long as physically possible." "Up until now Cressida has loved the fact they can have a lot of freedom in public, they don't hit the headlines when they go to dinner and they can enjoy their relative anonymity around Chelsea," the source continues. "But they are fully aware once they decide to proceed to marriage things will get a little crazy and the attention on them will increase. So it's very much a 'let's enjoy this while it lasts' before they move forwards." The royal insider adds that Kate Middleton has been super helpful when it comes to dealing with the increasing spotlight on Cressida. "Kate's been brilliant with Cressida and has been giving her advice," they say. "She likes her very much and has offered her tips on how to keep her normality. Kate's been there and done it and, while she knows Cressida won't be as talked about and followed like she was, she needs to get a real slant on what happens." As for Harry's impending proposal, the source dished, "Cressida has also had initial talks with the palace about what will happen once they do announce their engagement and the way things will work. Harry has told his crowd that he knows he will wed Cressida but he wants to ensure their life doesn't become a circus. He's not half as important as William with regards to the throne and wants his privacy to reflect that. They want to be able to enjoy normality far more than Wills and Kate can. They're not surrounded by the protocol like the elder royals--they can sway the opinion as young royals. They both feel they deserve the chance to live out their married life in as normal a way as possible." The source says that the lovebirds aren't living together yet. "She's been staying at his for months but they've not moved in together as such," they added. "She likes her space! And he's away so much anyway. So they're kinda living together but not made a home yet!"

Fifty Shades of Grey Set Scoop: Jamie Dornan Would Sing Rita Ora Songs Between Takes!

Just picture Jamie Dornan belting, "R.I.P. to the girl you used to see, her days are overrrrrr..." in his sexy Irish accent. Amazing, right?! It turns out the hunky actor, who will be portraying Christian Grey in the highly anticipated adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey, would sing Rita Ora songs between takes (in case you forgot, Ora plays Grey's sister, Mia, in the film). "Behind the scenes, he'll jump into an Irish ditty, or he was singing a lot of Rita Ora," Marcia Gay Harden, who plays Grey's mother in the movie, told Entertainment Weekly Radio's TV Editors Hour. "He's like [in Irish brogue], 'Oh, you got that in brain now.' We're like, 'Come back to America, because you got a scene in a minute.' 'But it's in my brain!' He's sweet." The Brit singer never voiced her opinion on his rendition of her songs, but we're guessing he was able to hit all the notes. After all, Dornan isn't just a handsome model and actor (and soon to be S&M sexpert). He's also had his time behind a microphone, singing songs for his folk band Sons of Jim, which broke up in 2008 (but you can watch them in action here). Jamie has recently returned to Ireland after spending the about three months in Canada filming the popular erotic flick, based on E.L. James' best-selling trilogy which also stars Dakota Johnson. They wrapped filming on Feb. 21 and the film is set to hit theaters on Feb. 13, 2014. Along with cheering on his favorite rugby team at Aviva Stadium in Dublin during his downtime, the 31-year-old new dad spends is busy filming the second series of his hit BBC show The Fall--and also probably singing some tunes throughout the day, of course.

President Obama Appears in Zach Galifianakis' Funny or Die Sketch

President Barack Obama showed the world he could be funny too. The U.S. leader appeared in Zach Galifianakis' "Between Two Ferns" parody show on Funny or Die to encourage America's youth to register for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act on the government's website, healthcare.gov. "I have to say, when I heard that people actually watch this show, I was actually surprised," Obama said in the beginning of the video before Galifianakis shushed him as he began the show. The president was questioned about pardoning turkeys to North Korea before he was subjected to the question, "What is it like to be the last black president?" Obama answered, "Seriously? What is it like for this to be the last time you talk to a president?" Obama did get his chance to irk the worst TV host ever by mentioning Bradley Cooper, Galfianakis' co-star in " The Hangover" series. Obama praised Cooper for carrying the movie alone and Galfianakis responded, "Everybody loves Bradley…Being like that in Hollywood, that's easy. Be short, fat, and smell like doritos and try to make it in Hollywood!" In his turn, Galifianakis talked about the president's figurative son. "But what if you son didn't want to play football. What if he was a nerd, like you?" Galifianakis asked. The president replied, "Do you think a woman like Michelle would marry a nerd? Why don't u ask her whether she thinks I'm nerd." Galifianakis responded, "Could I?" Obama quickly said, "No. I'm not gonna let her near you." Then the conversation moved to Obama's plug for the Affordable Care Act. "A lot of young people think they're invincible," the president enthusiastically explained before being interrupted by the host on the word "invincible". Obama added, "Meaning that they don't think they can get hurt." The interview ended with Obama pressing the big red button and revealing the interview set. Obama has been using pop culture to deliver his messages. "We have to find ways to break through," said Dan Pfeiffer, the president's senior adviser and chief communications strategist. "This is essentially an extension of the code we have been trying to crack for seven years now."

Zac Efron Is Game to Return for 'High School Musical' Reunion

It's been six years since the last "High School Musical" and many movies since then for Zac Efron, but the former Disney star never forgets his roots. In an interview with E! News when promoting his new movie " Neighbors" at SXSW, he said he would love to do a new movie to follow up the last one, " High School Musical 3: Senior Year". The " That Awkward Moment" hunk suggested that the other main stars like Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu, and Lucas Grabeelwere all on board. "We're all thinking about it," he claimed. "I continue to see all the guys from 'High School'. Every time we do, there's just this look between us." "It's so cool because we never forget a single moment of that experience. It brings you right back to those days," the ex-teen idol continued. So, what's his suggestion for the fourth installment should one be made? A "really dirty, R-rated 'High School Musical' movie," so the now 26-year-old star pitched in his idea. The Mouse House has responded to Efron's statement. The studio said, "Everyone at Disney Channel takes pride in knowing that our wonderful 'High School Musical' cast has fond memories about their days as 'Wildcats,' and that each year, new audiences are introduced to the movies through our telecasts around the world, but we have no 'new news' to report." The first "HSM" movie premiered on Disney Channel in 2006. It instantly became the network's most successful TV movie of all time, and its soundtrack went on to become the highest-selling album of 2006. A sequel came out in 2007 before the third entry was released in theaters the next year. The last one bagged over $252 million worldwide against a modest $11M budget.

Elisabeth Moss Says Her Marriage to Fred Armisen Was 'Traumatic'

Elisabeth Moss graces the cover of New York magazine's latest issue. The " Mad Men" star, who goes topless on front page, sports a denim overall and is pictured sitting and laughing. In an interview for the spread, however, Moss opens up about her short-lived marriage to " Saturday Night Live" alum Fred Armisen which ended in 2010. "Looking back, I feel like I was a really young, and at the time I didn't think that I was that young," she says, "It was extremely traumatic and awful and horrible. At the same time, it turned out for the best. I'm glad that I'm not there. I'm glad that it didn't happen when I was 50. I'm glad I didn't have kids. And I got that out of the way. Hopefully. Like, that's probably not going to happen again." Moss continues describing her feelings after the break-up hit the media. "I always knew that the stuff that you read is not true, but when I was in the situation and you really, actually read things that you apparently said or did that are 100 percent made up ... It's just the strange, simple thing of, that's your heart they're talking about, and it just ... it sucks," she shares. The 31-year-old star, however, admits that she still follows celebrity news. "I enjoy a little gossip. I like looking at photos of celebrities going to Starbucks," she says.

Khloe Kardashian Hooking Up With The Game to Make Me Jealous - Lamar Odom

Rumors were flying about a possible hook-up between Khloe Kardashian and rapper The Game when Khloe posted a pic of them together last month. Now, Lamar Odom is suspicious of Khloe's motives. According to Us Weekly, Lamar does not appreciate Khloe and The Game spending time together, and he thinks Khloe is just doing this to hurt him. "[Lamar] says she's hooking up with The Game as revenge," says an insider. In other words, it's safe to say that Lamar got an eyeful of that pic of Khloe and The Game and was not pleased. Lamar has signed with a Spanish basketball team, but apparently he's hopeful that he can still patch things up with Khloe when he gets back to the U.S. "He is in Spain for two months, and he thinks by the time he gets back to L.A., they could get back together," adds the insider. In Khloe's defense, her friends have refuted rumors that she would ever hook up with The Game. And the rapper himself has said that they're just friends but that he has hooked up with Khloe's sis, Kim Kardashian.

DRYBATH: Find Out How to Keep Clean Without Using Water

Too lazy to have a shower? Worry no more, there's a lotion for that. DryBath is a germ-killing gel that allows you to take a bath without using a single drop of water or soap -- all you need is to apply the gel on your skin and then vigorously rub it off using your hands. "The special formula will cover the whole body with the cleansing gel, which will use the vigorous rubbing to lift the dirt off the skin," explains Ludwick Marishane, the inventor of DryBath and founder of Headboy Industries. The 23-year-old entrepreneur came up with his revolutionary idea back in 2007, during a hot winter day when he was relaxing with some friends under the blazing sun in Limpopo, northern South Africa. The idea of this invention was given to Marishane by one of his pals. Still in high school, Marishane immediately took to Google and Wikipedia to start researching creams and lotions, learning everything about their components and how they are produced. Since he didn't have a computer he carried out his investigations using his mobile phone and a few months later he'd devised his own special formula -- at the age of 17, Marishane became South Africa's youngest patent-filer. Marishane, who won the global student entrepreneur award in 2011, went on to study at the University of Cape Town and soon got his DryBath-producing business running. He says his trademarked invention can be a "precious tool" for the millions of people lacking access to clean water and sanitation, as well as an an attractive option for corporate groups -- from airlines and hotels to gyms and even aid agencies -- who want to encourage their clients and users to save water. Description of DryBath: DryBath is a bath-substituting gel, designed to replace the need for soap, water and skin lotion. DryBath provides its users with a fun and convenient alternative to traditional bathing and showering, a precious tool for helping people to lower the excessive water use that is leading to a looming global water crisis. DryBath's ingredients:It is a proprietary blend of cleansers and moisturizers that make it a uniquely viscous blend of bioflavonoids, natural emollients, and fruit acids to cleanse the skin, while preventing dryness, irritation and body odor

Jay Z Turns Down Kanye West Best Man Offer Due To Kardashian Cameras

Jay z has rejected Kanye west's plea to be his best man at his upcoming wedding to reality star Kim Kardashian due to not wanting Beyonce and daughter blue Ivy shown on the Kardashian show. As the nuptials will be on Tv, Beyonce isn't happy about it according to sources so Jay will not participate so as not to cause a family problem. A source explained: "Jay is Kanye's closest friend so he wants him to be best man. Jay agreed initially but had one condition - under no circumstances can there be any reality TV shows filming him, his wife, Beyoncé or daughter Blue Ivy during the ceremony. The thought of popping up in KUWTK mortifies Beyoncé. She purposefully keeps herself away from trashy TV and isn't prepared to lower her standards for anyone, or any occasion. Bosses at E! are desperate to get the nuptials on air, and will pay millions to make it happen." It's previously been mentioned that the TV deal is already in the works especially because E! will pay for the wedding! So, what's more important: getting the best man you want or making millions of dollars? Hopefully this will be Yeezy's one and only wedding, so it's a tough decision.

Inside Prince William and Kate Middleton's Wacky Maldives Vacation: Sex Kits, Pillow Experts and More!

Prince William and Kate Middleton rented out the five-star Cheval Blanc Randheli resort on the Noonu Atoll, on the northwest of the Maldives archipelago last week for a special family vacation. The couple, who were joined by Kate's parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, did their best to keep a low profile during their beachside getaway. Black Juddy confirmed that the royal duo spent arrived at Ibrahim Nasir International Airport Thursday on a British Airways flight, without their wee one, Prince George. Camilla Long, a reporter for The Sunday Times, visited the elite hotel to get her taste of living like a royal, but she came across a few things she didn't see coming. It turns out that the hotel boasts several well, odd, amenities for its guests. Let's just say this isn't your run-of-the-mill swanky hotel, and that it may be best to leave the kids at home for this particular setting. Here's a breakdown of the five craziest things about where Wills and Kate stayed: 1. The Food's Not That Great: Long explained that after several expensive meals, including an almost $400 lunch for two people, she was left less than satisfied with the resort's fare. 2. You Get Your Own Personal Assistant: Each guest is entitled to two staff members who are ready and able to be at your beck and call at any hour of the night. 3. On Days Ending With "Y," We Wear Taupe: Cheval's official color is taupe, people. So be sure to add some into your suitcase before you board a flight to the stunning grounds. There's also an official watch, but that'll cost you $38,600. The plus side to the pricey timepiece? It's completely waterproof and can be taken down to 4,000 meters. You know, if you need that sort of thing when you're all the way down there. 4. Pillows Are Serious Business: Forget your sleep number, this hotel comes with a resident "Pillow Alchemist," someone whose sole job is to create the perfect pillow experience for you. Feeling a slight ache in your neck? No problem. Just let the alchemist walk you through the pillow menu (yes, that's a thing) so you two can decide on a better option for you. 5. There's a Kit for That: Included in each villa's bedside nightstand are an iPad and a sex kit. Just add a few pillows of your choosing and get creative! Now if only we could scrounge up the funds (approximately $1,000 a night) to visit the edgy resort...

The line will surely have a few edgy lipsticks to play with to achieve the perfect moody pout, as well as some seriously gothic-inspired nail colors, too.

I hope you will too," Lorde told the site.

Selena Gomez Returns to the Stage for Concert in Texas--Was Justin Bieber in the Audience?

Selena Gomez is back on the stage and looking better than ever. The 21-year-old pop star performed at the 2014 BorderFest concert at the Hidalgo State Farm Arena in Texas on Saturday evening, marking her first show since her stint in rehab earlier this year. The "Come and Get It" crooner rocked a sizzling white ensemble and flaunted her enviable figure in a midriff-baring top, a sheer mesh skirt and knee-high lace-up stiletto boots. She wore her long curly locks down and finished the sexy look with plum lips. Gomez expressed her excitement to be back home in Texas and shared a sweet hugging snapshot on her Instagram account. "Reunited and it feels sooo good :) TX always makes me proud #littles #realmexicanfood #home," the brunette beauty captioned the photo. It's been an eventful few days for the Texas native after reuniting with Justin Bieber in her home state. "Saw a great show last night :)" Bieber tweeted on Sunday morning, fueling speculation that he was indeed showing his support for Gomez. The brunette beauty was spotted with the 20-year-old, his bodyguard and several other pals on Friday in McAllen. Black Juddy exclusively learned that the group enjoyed breakfast in the morning at local eatery Don Pepe's and did their best to keep a low profile. According to the restaurant owner, the possible on-again lovebirds didn't want to take any photos during their meal. We're told that Selena ordered pork chops with salsa, while the "Beauty and a Beat" heartthrob opted for huevos rancheros. The beautiful pair also went to L.A. Imports, afloral shop, where they were seen hugging and talking about flowers. They also made their way to Perfumeria La Versailles, where they browsed for a short while. Before Gomez's concert on Saturday, the two singers visited Xtreme Lazer Tag in McAllen. "They showed up, played some lazer tag and had a lot of fun," an employee tells Black Juddy. Gomez will perform on Sunday at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

R. Kelly Will Trade Black Panties For White Panties On Next Album

R. Kelly is no stranger to sequels. The Pied Piper has twice revisited his 1993 R&B classic with 2000's TP-2.comand 2005'sTP.3 Reloaded, so in true R. Kelly fashion, the singer/songwriter is ready to add on to last year's Black Panties with the aptly titled White Panties. "You can expect a whole other level," the veteran hitmaker told V Magazine for their Spring 2014 issue. While Kelly has proven to be versatile making inspirational ("I Believe I Can Fly") and romantic (almost anything from hisHappy People/U Saved Me,Love LetterandWrite Me BackLPs), he specializes in the types of overly sexual tunes that he presented on Black Panties. "It was really for my fans. Everyone has been asking me when I'm going to do another baby-making album, because that's what started me out," he said. "I've been all around the world musically, in every genre. I can write 'I Believe I Can Fly' and I can write 'Bump 'N' Grind.' Now is the time to bring it back around." Kellz also plans to bring his 1990s magic back around with Mary J. Bligeon their upcoming King & Queen Tour and a new album with the same name. Both artists got their start over 20 years ago, recorded R&B classics and helped to shape the genre into what it is today. "It's a very exciting thing when two people like Mary and me come together," he said. "I'm in the studio right now working on a song for me and Mary. I'm looking forward to proposing that we do a whole album together."

'Batman: Arkham Knight' Finally Gives Players What They've Been Asking For

Rocksteady (via Game Informer) has unveiled the final game of their Dark Knight trilogy, "Batman: Arkham Knight," with a cover, a behind-the-scenes video and a trailer, but one word would have sufficed in order to get fans excited. Batmobile. Yes, players will finally be able to control the Caped Crusader's famous set of battle-ready wheels.

EXCLUSIVE: Mein Kampf With Adolf Hitler’s Autograph Sold For $65,000

Two volume set of Nazi manifesto Mein Kampf (My Struggle), by Adolf Hitler, has been sold at Los Angeles auction for $64,850. This set, the same as the first edition, was inscribed by Hitler to Josef Bauer, one of the early Nazi party members and officer of SS. The words inscribed on the books were Christmas wishes to Bauer. Online bidding took place Thursday night and started at $20,000. This set received 11 bids in total. The buyer chose to remain anonymous. The book was written in 1923, when Hitler was in prison for participation in a failed putsch attempt. The book deals with Hitler's rails against communism and Judaism. Both books were published in 1925 and 1926, prior to Hitler becoming the chancellor of Germany. In Nazi Germany, copies of this book were presented to all newlyweds. Interesting fact that now the copyright owner of the books Mein Kampf is the German state of Bavaria, and as it was informed, that a project of a new edition of the book with comments and demystifications will cost 500,000 euros. This project has been postponed due to respect of the victims of Holocaust.

Must Know: 6 Mental Conditions Linked To S*X Addiction [18+:Only]

However, it is important to note that s*x addiction is not simply an excuse for irresponsible s*xual behavior; it is truly a disorder that causes uncontrolled s*xual impulses. S*x addiction has been a crucial symptom for some serious mental disorders. Read on to learn more about the mental conditions linked to s*x addiction. Bipolar disorder: Patients with bipolar disorder are known to switch between manic and depressive states. During a manic state the patient has a distinct state of elevated mood and energy levels that can take the form of euphoria. In such conditions they engage in high-risk activities, s*x addiction being one of them. Borderline personality disorder: A borderline personality patient is prone to emotional instability and impulsive behavior. Experts point out a general pattern of addictions which commonly include unsafe s*xual activities. Dependent personality disorder: Dependent personality disorder is also commonly called love addiction. These love addicts use s*x to feel loved and can easily become s*x addicts by basing their entire identity on the relationships they depend on. Post-traumatic stress disorder: Survivors of childhood s*xual abuse are often reported to repeat the pattern of their abuse as they subconsciously engage in compulsive s*xual activities as an attempt to gain control on their childhood trauma. Gender identity disorder: People suffering from gender identity disorder are usually confused about their s*xual orientation and end up engaging in compulsive sexual behavior to figure out their concerns. Sexual disorders: People with sexual disorders like pedophilia and exhibitionism are known to exhibit traits of s*x addictions. This many not always be the case but these patients need much more treatment as their acts can victimse others.

Girl STONED TO DEATH In Syria For Having A Facebook Account

A Syrian Sharia court in Ar-Raqqa sentenced a girl to death for opening a Facebook account, local media report. The girl, identified as Fatoum Al-Jassem, was stoned to death after it had been ruled that having a Facebook account was immoral behaviour. Accoring to the reports, she was taken to the court by Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militants after being caught using the social networking site. The court, which is under the jurisdiction of ISIS, ruled the act of being a member of the social network deserved to be punished the same way as adultery. The ISIS is a pro-Al Qaida jihadist group formed in 2013 that many fear is taking an iron grip over parts of Syria. Rebels who have voiced their opposition to ISIS have found themselves arrested and thrown in jail without trial. The town's women, meanwhile, have been ordered by ISIS via posters to 'cover up their beauty'.

14-Yr-Old Girl Caught Heading To Wage Jihad

A 14-year-old French girl is in a care home after being stopped at Lyon airport, apparently heading for Syria to wage jihad. She is the third French minor to be found trying to fight holy war against Bashar al-Assad's regime. Earlier this week the girl, from the French city of Grenoble, told her parents via text message that she had been selected to join the jihad war in Syria and had run away from home. She was detained before boarding a plane bound with a one-way ticket for Istanbul, from where she intended to go to the Syrian border. Investigators describe her as "heavily indoctrinated" and say that she keeps repeating that she was going to Turkey as a tourist. After being picked up on Monday, she was placed in the home on Tuesday but managed to run away, only to be caught and returned there. Anthropologist Dounia Bouzar, author of the book Defusing radical Islam, says the indoctrination of vulnerable teens has increased through the use of social networks and the internet . In her book, she explains how youth indoctrination linked to Islamism is a growing phenomenon in France "I've been working on indoctrination techniques by radical Islamist for 10 years new. They used to affect only young and rather fragile people. Today they affect individuals from any social and family environment, people of any religion, atheists, agnostics, whether they practice their religion or not, poor, rich, privileged, educated ... Anyone, really." About 700 French nationals are believed to have gone to fight in Syria. Two teenagers were brought back to France from Turkey in January. "French society and politicians have failed to differentiate sect-like indoctrination and brainwashing by radical Islamists and Islam as a religion,"comments Bouzar. "That has led to many errors in appreciation and interpretation which have only been to the religious radicals' advantage." The government is drawing up measures to tackle jihadi networks and intends to establish a for families to notify the authorities if their children seem to be becoming radicalised, so that they are prevented from leaving the country without their parents' permission.

9-Year-Old Boy Inserts Needles Into His Stomach, You'll Be Shocked When You Find Out Why

A 9-year-old boy in China inserted four sewing needles into his stomach after he scored 99% in his examination. According to the father of the boy, he had first noticed lumps on his stomach as he was bathing but the child did not let him get a closer look. Some days later the boy had terrible stomach pains and was rushed to the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University. At the hospital, the doctors discovered he had needles in stomach and it took them 2 hours to remove the needles which were burrowed deep into his stomach. According to the boy from Harbin in Heilongjiang Province, it was a form of punishment to atone his 1% failure.

Russia Broke International Law In Ukraine, Says Obama

US President Barack Obama warned on Monday that most of the world believes that Russia has violated international law by intervening in Ukraine. The American leader said Moscow had put itself "on the wrong side of history" by mobilizing forces within Ukraine after the country's pro-Russian president was ousted in a popular revolt. I think the world is largely united in recognizing the steps Russia has taken are a violation of Ukranian sovereignty … a violation of international law," Obama said. Ukraine's new westward-leaning government has accused Russia of mounting a de facto invasion by deploying troops on Ukrainian soil in the Crimean peninsula. But Moscow protests it may be forced to act to protect ethnic Russians in Ukraine amid the chaos following the uprising against fugitive former president Viktor Yanukovych. Western powers are mulling sanctions to punish Russia for its intervention. Obama said he had told Russia that "if in fact they continue on the current trajectory, that we are examining a whole series of steps - economic, diplomatic - that will isolate Russia."

English Premier League Table Update: Arsenal Is Pessimistic, as Chelsea Increased Its Lead

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger feels it would be not easy for his team to catch Barclays Premier League leaders Chelsea this season. However, despite admitting that title chase would be tricky, Wenger has hit back at talk of the Gunners dipping in form towards the end of campaigns. Arsenal lost 1-0 at Stoke on March 1, 2014, Saturday, and that, combined with the day's other results, left them third in the table, level on points with second-placed Liverpool and four adrift of Chelsea with each having 10 top-flight matches to go.

SEE Who Tops Forbes' World’s Billionaire List

The surging price of Microsoft shares returned US tech tycoon Bill Gates back to the top of Forbes's world's billionaires list, with his $76 billion beating out Mexico's Carlos Slim's $72 billion. * Bill Gates The annual list, released Monday, counted 1,645 men and women as billionaires, with an average wealth of $4.5 billion and a collective wealth of $6.4 trillion, up $1 trillion from a year ago. Gates, co-founder of the US software firm, showed his staying power at the top - the world's richest man for 15 of the past 20 years, according to Forbes - despite spending recent years giving away large sums of money to global health and anti-poverty programs. Gates owns about 4.4 percent of Microsoft, making up less than 20 percent of his total fortune. But the company's share price has risen 25 percent over the past year, and, along with gains in other assets, he has added $7 billion to his fortune since a year ago, according to Forbes. Slim, with a hand in everything from telecommunications (America Movil) to mining, finance and industry (Grupo Carso), to retailing and real estate across the Americas region, was worth $1 billion less than a year ago, hit in part by sagging markets in South America. In third was Spain's Amancio Ortega, whose pockets have filled with profits from fashion: his hugely successful Inditex garment empire, parent of popular chains Zara, Pull & Bear, and Bershka. More recently, Ortega heavily invested in real estate in Europe and the United States; his worth was put at $64 billion. A familiar cast of mega-wealthy filled out the rest of the top ten: US investment guru Warren Buffett ($58.2 billion); software group Oracle's founder and chief executive Larry Ellison ($48 billion); US industrialists and brothers Charles and David Koch (each with $40 billion); Las Vegas casino king Sheldon Adelson ($38 billion); Walmart heiress Christy Walton ($36.7 billion) and her brother Jim Walton ($34.7 billion). Together the $507 billion held by the top ten is larger than the entire size of the economy of Norway, or Belgium or Poland in 2012. - 31 billionaires under 40 - US billionaires dominated the list, with 492, followed by 152 from China and 11 from Russia. Forbes said two-thirds of them made their own fortunes, while 13 percent inherited. The rest took fortunes they received and built them up to the $1 billion-plus level. The biggest climb on the list in the year came from Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg. The public sale of the company's stock more than doubled his net worth to $28.5 billion, leaving him at number 21, just behind Hong Kong's venerable tycoon Li Kashing and just ahead of Italian chocolatier Michele Ferrero. Zuckerberg, 29, led a group of 31 billionaires under 40 years old. Youngest, at age 24, was Perenna Kei - also known as Ji Peili - the 85 percent shareholder of real estate company Logan Property Holdings, which went public in Hong Kong in December. Her father Ji Haipeng is chairman and chief executive of the company. Saudi investor Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, a nephew of the oil giant's king, was likely to remain unhappy with Forbes after blasting it last year for allegedly understating his wealth. Forbes put his fortune this year at just $20.4 billion - enough for a ranking of number 30 - compared to $20 billion a year ago. Defending itself last year, Forbes said the prince "systematically exaggerates" his wealth. Last week Alwaleed sent out a press release noting that the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, a rival of Forbes, put his fortune at $30.5 billion. In the statement, he assailed Forbes for "use of incorrect data" and said its approach "seemed designed to disparage Middle Eastern financial institutions such as the Saudi stock exchange."

Idina Menzel, Who? Stars React to John Travolta's Oscar Flub (Including Busy Philipps' 5-Year-Old)

We're not quite sure who John Travolta introduced before Idina Menzel took the stage at the 86th Annual Academy Awards, and apparently, neither is the Twitterverse. While the 60-year-old star had plenty of kind words to say about "the wickedly talented, one and only Adele Dazeem," he completely botched the Frozen star's name...and the flub didn't go unnoticed. Not only were the folks on Twitter buzzing over the Grease star's epic snafu, but a few famous faces also took to the social media site to comment on the Oscar hiccup. Here's what the stars are saying (stay away from Google today, Travolta!). Almost immediately after Travolta's misstep, two parody Twitter accounts, @AdeleDazim and @AdelaDazeem, popped up on the web. "THANK YOU, JORN TROMOLTO!," the second spoof account wrote while the first posted, "Travolta never bothered me anyway," as the celebs continued to poke fun at Travolta's epic mispronunciation. Luckily, Eric Stonestreet captured the moment in an epic Vine video (in case you want to replay the hilarious scenario). So congrats on your honor, , Idina Menzel, you clearly have a fan in John Travolta.

12 Years a Slave Feud? Steve McQueen and John Ridley Seemingly Shade Each Other at the Oscars

They say actions speak louder than words. But was that the case last night for Steve McQueen and John Ridley? After all, many couldn't help but notice how the 12 Years a Slave director and the film's Oscar-winning screenwriter failed to acknowledge each other during the telecast as the movie was picking up awards. For instance, when Ridley was walking to the stage to accept his Best Adapted Screenplay statuette, he and McQueen appeared to completely ignore each other. What's more, Ridley didn't even mention McQueen in his acceptance speech. Later, when 12 Years a Slave nabbed Best Picture, McQueen, in turn, neglected to mention Ridley during his speech. Needless to say, the behavior of both men during Hollywood's biggest night has created speculation that there's some sort of feud going on. Adding fuel to the rumor fire is a tweet sent out by Deadline founder Nikki Finke, which reads, "My sources attributing John Ridley-Steve McQueen cold shoulder at Oscars tonight to dispute over screenplay credit." Ridley also did not bring up McQueen's name the night before after his win at the Independent Spirit Awards. Guess time will tell if these two really have a bit of a beef with each other.

Pope Francis Accidentally Drops F-Bomb During a Public Blessing

We never thought in a million years that we would include the words "pope" and "F-bomb" in one sentence, and yet here we are. Pope Francis shocked the crowd who gathered for his weekly blessing on Sunday at the Vatican when he accidentally let a swear word slip. And it was the ultimate swear word, too. Instead of saying "caso," which means "case" in Italian, the Pope used the word "cazzo," which is the Italian equivalent of the word "f--k." Oh, my! Please stand by while we clutch our pearls and fan ourselves. The 76-year-old Pope of the Catholic Church quickly realized his error and corrected himself, but it was too late. He's the first Pope in history to drop the F-bomb in public. Probably. Most likely. We think. Here is the part of the speech translated to English: "If each one of us does not amass riches only for oneself, but half for the service of others, in this f--k...in this case the providence of God will become visible through this gesture of solidarity." We think he should have kept the swear word in there so it would read like "in this f--king case." That would really hammer the point home.
