Drake Revealed His Collection of Hermès Birkin Bags He Buys for His Future Wife


Drake recently showed off his gigantic Toronto mansion and it’s definitely been a revelation, to say the least. The 50,000 square foot home which he calls “The Embassy” contains, among other things, an NBA regulation-size basketball court, a chandelier made from 20,000 Swarovski crystals, and a bed that weighs around a ton.

However, perhaps one of the bigger revelations is that Drake has been collecting Hermès Birkin bags he plans to one day give to his future wife. “Equally dramatic is Drake’s two-story closet, adorned with amethyst hardware, rock crystal, and seating upholstered in diamond-tufted shearling with polished nickel studs,” Architectural Digest reports. “It’s the perfect place to display the musician’s extensive wardrobe, sneaker collection, and the array of precious Hermès Birkin bags that he has been amassing for years.”

While Drake doesn’t speak to who exactly the bags are for in this latest story, he has spoken about the subject in the past. He told The Hollywood Reporter in 2017 that the collection of expensive handbags (they can range in cost from $12,000 to over $300,000) was for “the woman I end up with.” The Birkin, named for actress Jane Birkin, is one of the most coveted handbags on the planet. Not only are they incredibly expensive, but they are also not produced en masse and can be a considered a formidable investment. We can only imagine how much Drake’s current collection is worth.

Check out the stash below.

Drake, who has been linked to Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez in the past, is one of those celebrities that can instantly create a massive social media conversation—and his house (and the Birkins held within it) definitely had people in their feelings on Twitter. “Drake collecting Birkin bags for his future wife is such a Drake thing to do,” one person wrote.

“Wait… does drake keep Birkin bags on his tables like mints?” another tweeted.

Now, all we want to know is exactly how many Birkins are currently in that collection—and if it rivals Kris Jenner’s Birkin closet.

Peter Weber Just Revealed What's Really Going On With Kelley Flanagan


The Bachelor‘s Peter Weber, a.k.a. Pilot Pete, has been keeping quite busy since his season ended. Most recently, he was spotted out and about in Chicago with former contestant Kelley Flanagan—and yes, their flirty public encounter went down during this period of social distancing.

Now, Weber is opening up about what exactly is going on between them. He appeared on Nick Viall’s podcast, The Viall File, on Tuesday, April 7, and gave the tea on Flanagan.

“There’s a lot of stuff that people don’t know. My relationship with Kelley has been… serendipitous. You go all the way back to the very beginning—us running into each other before any of this stuff started,” he said on the podcast, per E! News. “Obviously, the show happened and it didn’t work out for us. Over the Super Bowl, I was in Miami and I had the opportunity to go to the Super Bowl with my brother, and I ran into her on the Saturday night before the Super Bowl.”

He continued, “Within our relationship on the show, it didn’t really play out in the best way for us. It just wasn’t gonna work on the show. Fast-forward [to] now, a couple weeks ago, I’m out with Dylan [Barbour] and Devin [Harris] and I was texting Kristian [Haggerty], asking her if she wanted to come out with us. She comes out with us, she’s with Kelley. Me not knowing this. They show up, I see Kelley again… jaw drops. We chat, we end up hanging out, and that’s when I got her number. We started to communicate and just stay in touch.”

And, yes, they are spending quarantine together. “Long story short, I wasn’t working, so I thought I’d go out there [to Chicago] and spend some time with her, take her mind off some things,” Weber said. “This was right when everything was starting to hit with the quarantine stuff… and it kind of just became a thing where we’ve always gotten along really well, and had really good chemistry. We just enjoy each other’s company. I just decided to quarantine up here with Dustin as well.”

But Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are not officially dating yet, so there’s probably more news to come where these two are concerned.

“Are we dating? No. Do I love spending time with her? Absolutely. We’re not dating. Could I see that in the future? Yeah, of course. I’d be extremely lucky and very happy if that happened,” he said. “…I’m the last person that needs to rush into any kind of relationship. I just had an engagement that didn’t work out. I just was trying to pursue things with another woman that didn’t work out. That’s why right now, I’m just taking it really, really slow.”

Selena Gomez Revealed She's Bipolar During an Instagram Live With Miley Cyrus


In an Instagram Live chat with Miley Cyrus on Friday, April 3, Selena Gomez revealed that she is bipolar.

Gomez joined Cyrus on the latter’s Bright Minded IG Live series, where they talked about a variety of subjects, including mental health. When Cyrus asked Gomez how she goes about managing her mental health, the Rare singer opened up.

“Recently, I went to one of the best mental hospitals in the world, but definitely in America, McLean’s Hospital. I discussed that, after years of going through a lot of different things, I realized that I was bipolar,” she said. “So when I go to know more information, it actually helps me. It doesn’t scare me once I know it. I think people get scared of that.”

Gomez continued, “I’ve seen it, and I’ve seen some of it in my own family, where I’m like, ‘What’s going on?’ I’m from Texas. It’s not known to talk about your mental health. You’ve got to seem cool, and then I see anger built up in teenagers and young adults because they are wanting that so badly. I feel like, when I finally said what I was gonna say, I wanted to know everything about it and it took the fear away.”

See Gomez discuss this in the video, below:

This is the first time Selena Gomez has talked about her bipolar diagnosis, but she’s been incredibly open in the past about her general mental health. In 2016, she took some time off to seek treatment for anxiety and depression. “Everything I cared about, I stopped caring about. I came out, and it felt like, ‘OK, I can only go forward,'” she told InStyle a year later about the treatment. “And there are still days. I go to therapy. I believe in that and talking about where you are. But I’m in a really, really healthy place.”

In January 2020, Gomez talked about how finding the “right medication” was instrumental in her mental health journey. “I found out I do suffer from mental health issues,” she told WSJ magazine. “And honestly, that was such a relief,” she continued. “I realized that there was a way to get help and to find people that you trust. I got on the right medication, and my life has been completely changed.”

Grey's Anatomy Finally Revealed What Happened to Alex Karev—and It's Major


Warning: Major Grey’s Anatomy spoilers ahead.

Grey’s Anatomy fans were shocked earlier this year when it was announced that Justin Chambers, one of the show’s original cast members, would be leaving his role in the middle of the current season. In fact, once we learned the news, his final episode had already aired.

“There’s no good time to say goodbye to a show and character that’s defined so much of my life for the past 15 years,” Chambers (a.k.a Alex Karev) said. “For some time now, however, I have hoped to diversify my acting roles and career choices. And, as I turn 50 and am blessed with my remarkable, supportive wife and five wonderful children, now is that time.”

What would become of Alex Karev? How would the show handle a pivotal character’s seemingly sudden departure? Of the original group of surgical interns we first met back in 2005, only Karev and Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) remained—along with two of their mentors, Dr. Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson) and Dr. Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.). This being Grey’s Anatomy, really any plot twist was on the table, including an offscreen death, which many fans feared.

But Grey’s had a happier ending in mind, or at least some longtime fans will see it that way. We learned last week that Karev was not actually taking care of his sick mother, as he had told Meredith and his wife, Jo (Camilla Luddington). Nope, he was actually reunited with none other than his long lost love and first wife, Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl).

We learned all of this by way of letters Karev sent to Meredith, Bailey, and Jo. He revealed that he called Izzie when he was rallying the troops to help save Meredith’s medical license earlier this season. (After surviving cancer, Izzie left Alex heartbroken and ran off to parts unknown in season six. He eventually married Jo.) They got to talking, and Izzie told him she had used the embryos they created during her cancer battle and given birth to twins, Eli and Alexis. The couple rekindled their relationship and he moved to Kansas to be with Izzie and raise their children. ‘I’m finally exactly where I should be. I never had that before,” Karev wrote, talking about giving his children the stable childhood and family he never had.

Love Is Blind Reunion: Everything the Cast Revealed


Carlton says the fight he had with Diamond led to him receiving death threats online. However, he’s more concerned for Diamond because she faced accusations of being homophobic and bi-phobic. “The woman I fell in love with, I’ve never felt like she was bi-phobic, homophobic,” he says. “I was just afraid we’d have some issues we’d have to work through.”

Diamond says she’s also received death threats, and that her intention with the conversation with Carlton in Mexico was to learn more about his sexuality, not attack him. “I should’ve approached it a lot differently in being more comforting,” she says. “Approach it in a way of saying, ‘I respect you as a person.'”

When asked if he wishes he would’ve told Diamond about his sexuality sooner, Carlton said, “I would’ve done whatever it took had I known then that’s what it took to sit here, happily married.”

In an emotional scene during the reunion, Carlton got down on one knee and apologized to Diamond. He returned her engagement ring and said, “I hope that you take this ring as a significant piece of our friendship and the start of something beautiful, without any type of plan.”

Giannina and Damian:

A reminder of what happened in their relationship: These two were also smitten with each other, but Giannina’s fear of marriage led to some hot-and-cold behavior about their future. By the end, though, she was ready to say, “I do.” But Giannina’s indecisiveness was a red flag for Damian, and he bowed out at the altar, causing her to (literally) run out of their wedding. In her dress.

And on the reunion:

Giannina and Damian are “so together,” says Giannina. “I don’t want to lose this. I just don’t. And I didn’t!”

Netflix

Giannina says she didn’t plan on proposing to Damian in the pods; it’s something that came to her after thinking abut their conversations about being equals.

On their wedding day drama, Giannina says she respects Damian’s decision to not go through with it: “Where we are now is just so right for us, where we can just date…We’re getting to know each other at our own pace.”

Damian has no regrets about saying, “I don’t” on their wedding day because it’s led to their strong relationship now. “It was definitely a strong love from the beginning and we pushed through a lot,” he says. “…But she was in and out of it so much.”

Lauren and Cameron:

A reminder of what happened in their relationship: These two were rock solid from the start and stayed that way through the end. The only obstacles they really faced were Lauren’s protective father and their
worries about being an interracial couple.

And on the reunion:

They are very much together. “I seriously never have been as happy as I am with Cameron,” Lauren says. “…Life is good.”

Netflix

The two have a puppy together and say they’ve had a great time showing the other person new experiences throughout the year. “I think people often think changing who you are is a negative thing,” Cameron says. “Lauren is an amazing woman, obviously, and just being with her, I feel, has changed me in many ways. Watching the show back, it’s still me, but I’ve evolved over time.”

On the topic of kids, Lauren says, “One day.”

As for Cameron’s tense conversation with Lauren’s dad on the show, she says, “We’re family…Lauren has a strong connection with her father, so it makes sense that I would love him too.” The families even spent Thanksgiving together in 2019.

And that’s a wrap on Love Is Blind season one. Don’t make us wait long for season two, Netflix.

It Sure Looks Like Hilary Duff Just Revealed What Stalled the ‘Lizzie McGuire’ Reboot


To say Hilary Duff fans were excited when she announced a Lizzie McGuire reboot on Disney+ would be an extreme understatement.

The singer-actor let fans in on the big news last August during a Disney+ event in California. “The good news is, just like me and everybody who loved Lizzie and has grown up with her, Lizzie’s also grown up,” she said. “She’s older, she’s wiser, she has a much bigger shoe budget, which is super exciting. She has her dream job. She has kind of the perfect life right now.”

But in January the show surprisingly shut down production. The show’s original creator, Terri Minsky, stepped down as showrunner, and Disney said via a spokesperson, “Fans have a sentimental attachment to Lizzie McGuire and high expectations for a new series. After filming two episodes, we concluded that we need to move in a different creative direction and are putting a new lens on the series.”

Hilary Duff herself hasn’t said much about the shutdown—until now. On Tuesday, February 25, she posted a screenshot of a news article to her Instagram Stories about another Disney+ show, Love, Simon (based on the popular 2018 film). It read, “Love, Simon TV Show Pulled from Disney+ as It’s Not ‘Family Friendly.’” She circled the headline and wrote, “Sounds familiar….”

Of course, we can’t know exactly what Duff meant by her statement, but it’s not a huge leap to wonder if perhaps the powers-that-be felt the Lizzie McGuire reboot also wasn’t “family friendly.” We won’t know for sure unless Duff or others involved with the show choose to speak out more explicitly.

Lizzie McGuire originally aired from 2001 to 2004 and followed the life of 13-year-old Lizzie and her best friends Miranda and Gordo as they navigated teenage life. Hopefully everyone can settle their creative differences and the show will get back on track so we can see how all your favorites are navigating their thirties.
