Shia LaBeouf Is Now Engaged
Nee, this is not the regular performance art piece/stunt we’ve come to know and love from actor Shia LaBeouf. Rape allegations and tumultuous fights aside he and his longtime girlfriend Mia Goth have taken their relationship the next level. “An inside source alleged that LaBeouf confessed that he and Goth were engaged in the presence of a cashier at Gelson’s this month. Apparently, the actress was flashing a diamond on her ring finger and the two said that they were planning on getting married. Prior to this scene, LaBeouf supposedly called Goth his “fiancée” during the live stream of his #Elevate project last month. Obviously, nobody noticed, though, because we heard not a word of this until now.” src:

Madonna Grossed Drake Out at Coachella
Remember when Madonna kissed Britney Spears and it was pretty hot? Yeah this is not that. Beim diesjährigen Coachella-Musikfestival traf sich der beliebte Rap-Künstler Drake mit Madonna für einen Auftritt auf der Bühne. During one of her songs the pop icon decided to Spiderman sloppy kiss Drake while he sits in a chair. In what we assume she thought would have been a sexy shocker to add to her gasp list. Well it made the gasp list, but not in the way she intended. The only gasping was poor Drake being forced into an unwanted kiss. Wie ein schwuler Mann, der versucht, eine Frau zu küssen, das kann man nur vortäuschen…
