[Smells Like News] Khloe & Lamar Season Finale Recap: Is Khloe a Biological Kardashian?!?!?!


They say all good things must come to an end.

So, too, must Khloe & Lamar.

Amid the surprising downturn in his career, the divorce rumors and reports that the show will end after last night's season finale, the stakes were high for the beloved couple.

Did they persevere, prove that love always conquers all, and end the season (possibly the series) on a high note? Let's find out in our Khloe & Lamar recap ...

Khloe Kardashian notices Lamar Odom acting a little off. "I'm not used to this negative, somber man," she said. Reality TV will do that too a man. Minus 20.

Lamar admits that he's been holding a lot of pain in, especially after the violent death of his cousin. Okay, Plus 20 to negate our previous snap judgment.

"Every time when I'm like really down and out, no matter what, Khlo - is one person I can always count on." Plus 10 for that genuinely sweet sentiment.

Then things quickly turn scripted again when Kim calls about the celebrity gossip story of the week Khloe is not a biological Kardashian. Minus 15.

Rob Kardashian pulls a practical joke related to that topic. Too soon. But Plus 10.

"Wouldn't you just want to know 100 percent?" Kourtney asks, urging Khlo to take a DNA test to settle the fact that her father is her father. Yawn. Minus 10.

"It's important to stay strong for each other," Lamar says. "I just need to be a good husband, be thoughtful and let Khlo know how grateful I am." Plus 20.

His pre-taped video while Khloe is co-hosting The Talk? Cute. Plus 5.

The giraffe? Now we're talking dutiful hubby material. Plus 5 more.

"Is it bothering you that these rumors about who's who keep popping up every day?" mom Kris asks. "Because it's really upsetting me." Sure it is. Minus 15.

"I am one million percent comfortable with not getting a DNA test and knowing that my father is my father," she says. "I'm more than happy to live with that for the rest of my life." Why let fake rumors bother you, it's true? Plus 10.

"If I had to put a title on this year I would probably call it the Trying Times," Lamar Odom says, reflecting on the season. "So many things happened."

"Life changed for us. We've lost and we've gained. But at the end of the day, everything that we've been through has just made us closer." Plus 10.

EPISODE TOTAL: +30. SEASON TOTAL: -195.

[Smells Like News] Chris Brown "Theraflu" Remix: A Swipe at Rihanna?


Chris Brown has released a remixed, freestyle rap version of Kanye West's "Theraflu" that appears to contain a major swipe at ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

The R&B singer, who collaborated with Rih earlier this year, raps, "Don't f--k wit my old bitches ... like a bad fur ... every industry n!gga done had her."

"Trick or treat like a pumpkin ... just to smash her."

Are we reading too much into it? Listen and see:

Hours after Brown released the track, Rihanna stopped following Brown on Twitter, a move fueling peculation that the above lyrics are about her.

A short time later, Brown unfollowed Rihanna.

The two have been rumored to be hitting it for some time, despite his assault on her in 2009 ... but he's also been dating Karrueche Tran.

So, yeah. That about sums it up. What do you think? Is Chris dissing his ex? Should she never talk to him again? Does anyone care? Comment below!

[Smells Like News] John Travolta Denies Masseuse's Sexual Assault Claims

'This lawsuit is a complete fiction and fabrication,' a rep for Travolta tells People.

An anonymous plaintiff has filed a $2 million lawsuit against John Travolta, alleging that the "Old Dogs" star assaulted and sexually harassed him after he was hired to massage the actor.

Unsurprisingly, a rep for Travolta has shot down the allegations via a statement issued to People magazine, in which the rep strongly denied all claims made by the anonymous man, known only as John Doe via his court filing.

"This lawsuit is a complete fiction and fabrication," Travolta's rep said. "None of the events claimed in the suit ever occurred. The plaintiff, who refuses to give their name, knows that the suit is a baseless lie. It is for that reason that the plaintiff hasn't been identified with a name even though it is required to do so.

"On the date when plaintiff claims John met him, John was not in California and it can be proved that he was on the East Coast," the statement continued. "[The] plaintiff's attorney has filed this suit to try and get his 15 minutes of fame. John intends to get this case thrown out and then he will sue the attorney and plaintiff for malicious prosecution."

The plaintiff's lengthy 14-page suit, which was filed Friday in California's U.S. District Court, charges 58-year-old Travolta with assault, sexual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that among other salacious activities, Travolta exposed himself and groped the masseur despite protests during a massage performed in Los Angeles in January 2011.

[Smells Like News] The Vampire Diaries Season Finale Stunner: Twists and a Turn


Nina Dobrev used the crotch of Conan O'Brien for a nationally-televised Yoga pose this week. But that move was actually NOT the most surprising development involving this actress over the past couple days!

SPOILER WARNING: Stop reading now if you have not yet watched last night's season three finale of The Vampire Diaries.

To conclude an action-filled hour on this CW thriller, Dobrev's Elena Gilbert appeared to turn into a vampire. Viewers were told that blood from these creatures had been placed in her system by Dr. Fell and, upon being rescued from yet another bridge-related car accident, the episode concluded with a single image:

Elena, shooting up, awake... and transitioning?

We won't know for certain until September, but the season finale delivered a number of other surprises as well:

  • Bonnie cast a spell to keep Klaus alive - inside Tyler's body.
  • Elena chose Stefan over Damon.
  • Alaric died. Again. For good this time.
  • We saw, via flashback, that Elena actually met Damon prior to meeting Stefan, but was compelled to forget the interaction.
  • Elena is the most chipper morning person on the planet.

[Smells Like News] Robert Pattinson Talks Movie Roles, Testicles in Premiere


In his next movie, fans of Robert Pattinson will see this actor like never before. Seriously, watch this Cosmopolis trailer to see what we mean.

The same can be said, meanwhile, for shots of R. Patt in this month's special Cannes-based issue of Parade. Don't believe us? Feast your eyes on the following photos:

Pattinson tells the publication that working with director David Cronenberg has had a profound effect on his career.

“Filming Cosmopolis with David changed something in me." Rob says. "It gave me balls. I have five projects lined up right now that follow the path that movie opened for me. Before, I spent my time doubting myself. As soon as I read a script that I liked, I was working myself up, asking myself if I was good enough. Now, I tell myself: ‘F-ck it! If they want to hire you, go!”

And hire him they have: Pattinson has signed on to star in Mission: Blacklist as a soldier who helps bring down Suddam Hussein. It's based on a true story.

Cosmopolis, meanwhile, makes its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival later this month.
