“Jersey Shore” star Angelina Pivarnick is being slammed online after she appeared to shade Chris “CT” Tamburello and Phaedra Parks‘ new romance. On Instagram, Pivarnick didn’t hold back when talking about CT’s romantic relationship with the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star. In her comment, the MTV veteran even seemed to imply that Tamburello might’ve done her wrong.

According to Duexmoi, Pivarnick, who appeared in the first season of “Jersey Shore,” commented on a post of Parks and Tamburello posing together at the Creative Emmys earlier this month.

In addition to putting several laughing-face emojis, Pivarnick wrote, “Soo much I could say right now because I know what really happened.”

Pivarnick’s comments come days after Parks confirmed she was dating Tamburello during an appearance on “Jeff Lewis Live.” She told the “Flipping Out” star that she and Tamburello started dating recently, but confirmed they felt a connection in 2023 when they filmed season 2 of “The Traitors.”

Pivarnick Is Dragged For Shading CT And Phaedra Parks’ Connection

Fans of Tamburello and Parks weren’t too pleased with Pivarnick’s comments about their connection, and many slammed the reality star online.

“Not New Jersey trying to interfere with this Atlanta x Boston love story,” someone wrote, while another said, “Honestly, we don’t care about what she has to say about the Lady of the Glen and Castle Daddy. She just wants air time… leave our king and queen alone.”

A third commenter suggested that Pivarnick might be upset that her alleged relationship with Tamburello ended because of his budding romance with Parks.

“It’s called dating… he chose to lock it down with the right person,” they wrote, prompting another to add, “Angelina! Take your trash bags back home! If you ruin this for me and so many of my girls, we’re going to be so mad at YOU!”

CT’s Estranged Wife Called Him Out For Allegedly Stalling The Divorce

Pivarnick isn’t the only one calling out Tamburello over his unexpected new relationship. According to a previous report from The Blast, his estranged wife, Catalina White, recently called him out and accused him of refusing to sign divorce papers.

“I genuinely wish Chris well in whatever relationship or career he chooses to pursue. I’m not interested in commenting on whether his new relationship is real, for publicity, or anything in between,” she said. “What I would like is for him to put the same energy into ending our marriage that he’s putting into publicly promoting his new relationship.”

She claimed that she initially filed for divorce but later withdrew the papers after allegedly being manipulated by the “Challenge” mainstay. Shortly after, Tamburello reportedly blindsided White by filing his own divorce papers.

“Since then, I’ve been trying to finalize this divorce,” she said. “My counsel has made repeated efforts to move things forward as quickly as possible, and we continue to wait for his cooperation.”

White Says She’s Not Divorcing CT For Money Or Fame

White also attempted to clear the air about what led her to file for divorce from Tamburello and denied using the TV personality for money or fame.

“I do not, and never did, need or want money from this man,” she said. “I’m not asking for anything from him other than his cooperation in finalizing our divorce.”

White continued, “If Chris is ready to move on publicly, he should be ready to move on too legally. Sign the papers!”

Parks Boasts About Her Romance With CT

Days after the Emmys, Parks shared a slideshow of images of herself with her new man, making her feelings for the reality star clearer than ever.

“Some came for the awards. I came with the prize,” she captioned the picture. “Thank you to the real trophy for making a beautiful night even better.”

Not only does our skin lose elasticity as we age, but our eyelashes also begin to thin out. Mascara’s effect, for the most part, becomes less dramatic. Cindy Crawford found a formula that continues to amplify her lashes at 60, though — and it’s available at the drugstore.

Crawford sang the praises of the Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara to PureWow. Everything about it, from the brush to the flake-free formula, has wowed the supermodel.

“I really like the brush on this mascara,” Crawford told the outlet. “It fully coats my lashes, but it’s not too thick or cakey.” Her obsession with this mascara is surprising since it flies relatively under the radar, but this sleeper hit has a lot going for it.

For those who want to add some serious length to their lashes, the Lash Stiletto Mascara is the one to grab. This lengthening formula builds on each individual hair, taking them to new, falsie-level heights with a shiny finish that rivals a high-end patent leather stiletto pump.

The pro-vitamin B5-infused formula works over time to condition and strengthen lashes so your natural fringe becomes longer. Meanwhile, the thin yet fluffy brush reaches even the tiniest hairs for a full 360-degree effect. At the end of the day, when you take your makeup off, you won’t struggle with getting your lashes clean, either. This mascara slides right off with a bit of water.

I’ve worked in the beauty industry for a long time — and am a mascara snob — yet I’ve never heard of this mascara. After reading reviews, I need to get my hands on this immediately.

“This is amazing! It never clumps, it never flakes, it never smudges, it adds serious length to eyelashes without looking like you’re wearing mascara,” one CVS shopper wrote. “I’ve been using this for years. Yes, I have tried others based on friends’ and professionals’ suggestions. They are never as good!! I always come back to Lash Stiletto!”

I don’t think I’ve needed to add a mascara to my makeup lineup as badly as Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara. Crawford, as well as the hundreds of positive reviews, has convinced me, and I’m sure you too.

It is a happy ending for Aaron Rodgers and his brother, but getting there was anything but easy.

The former Green Bay Packers star has repaired his relationship with his siblings, a milestone he has publicly acknowledged by sharing moments with them on social media.

Rodgers has now revealed that much more happened behind the scenes. Although he has credited his wife for helping bridge the divide, he now says the process also required difficult conversations.

3

The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback recently opened up about where things stand with his parents and brothers, revealing how those relationships were rebuilt. 

Rodgers explained that the reconnection began with his parents after a series of events over the years created an opening for them to rebuild their bond.

According to the future Hall of Famer, one of the turning points came when his parents decided to relocate from Chico, California, to Nashville. Rodgers described visiting them on their final day in Chico, at the home he had purchased for them, as a “full-circle” moment.

A few weeks later, he traveled to Nashville, where he reunited with his older brother, Luke Rodgers, before meeting with his younger brother, Jordan Rodgers.

The 42-year-old recalled the reconnection, saying “it was cool.” However, it involved facing difficult moments. “There were tough conversations for sure, but I’m just in a much better headspace,” Rodgers said in the Thursday episode of the “Not Just Football” podcast.

The reunion comes a decade after Jordan first brought attention to the family’s estrangement during an appearance on “The Bachelorette.”

Aaron Rodgers Did Not Want The Public To Know Of Their Family Tensions

As Aaron fixed broken bonds, he has also expressed his frustration towards how some members of the brood handled it. 

As The Blast reported last month, the Super Bowl XLV MVP noted that he had always preferred to keep family matters private, though not everyone shared that view.

“Now, not everybody in the family adhered to the same thing,” the football star lamented, seemingly referencing Jordan’s public comments about the estrangement.

 Despite his displeasure, Aaron was thankful the disagreement was a thing of the past. 

The Rodgers Family Reconciliation Was Possible Thanks To One Person 

With the Rodgers family finding their way back to each other, Aaron says one person deserves much of the credit for making that happen.

According to The Blast, the NFL star revealed that his wife Brittani encouraged conversations and helped him become more open to repairing old wounds. Since reconnecting with his family, he has not been shy about sharing some of those moments with fans.

In July, he posted photos on Instagram featuring his parents and brother Luke, although Jordan was not included in the pictures.

He captioned it as part of “another bonding week,” saying he spent quality time with his brother’s children and enjoyed embracing his role as an uncle

Why Aaron Rodgers May Never Post His Family Online Again

While that post was heartwarming, it may never feature again. Rodger has since called it a gesture to end years-long speculation about their relationship. 

He then stressed his preference for keeping private matters off social media. “I think that the personal life should stay personal and private. But I feel like it was part of the full-circle to just one time post something, and never again,” the football veteran said, per The Blast.

He concluded by noting he does not care about the public’s opinion of him and that only those in his corner matter. 

The Super Bowl Champion Has These Retirement Plans

Meanwhile, Rodgers has also begun looking ahead to life after football.

After announcing in May that his 22nd NFL season would be his last, the veteran recently admitted that retirement has been on his mind more frequently.

Rather than pursuing a busy post-NFL schedule, Rodgers said he plans to focus on his growing family and spend more time with his wife.

“I’m hoping to be there for my pregnant wife as we start this next chapter,” he said, per The Blast, adding that he is looking forward to a “quiet life.” He also made it clear that he does not plan to make many public appearances or statements. 

A leaked phone call that appears to feature Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, has raised serious questions about a private conversation the former couple allegedly had while he was working at a school. The sexually suggestive audio appears to capture Blanchard and Anderson discussing whether he could participate in an intimate phone exchange from inside the building. Anderson has since pushed back against the speculation, insisting in a TikTok video that he “never” engaged in sexual activity at the school.

The audio, which has circulated on social media, begins with Anderson asking Blanchard what she is wearing, but she seemingly brushes off the question. “Oh fine, tomorrow,” Anderson responds.

The former couple can then be heard giggling before Anderson appears to express concern about getting caught. “I wish; I don’t want to get in trouble,” he says.

Blanchard responds by suggesting he would be able to remain quiet. “If you didn’t make a sound at your mom’s, you’re not gonna make a sound at school,” she is heard saying.

The comment appears to reference an earlier intimate encounter at his mother’s home, although the full context surrounding that remark is unclear.

Ryan Anderson Expressed Concern About The School Bathroom

Anderson seemingly considered whether there was a private place inside the school where he would feel comfortable continuing the exchange. “There’s not a bathroom I feel would feel secure to do that,” he says in the recording.

Blanchard appeared to agree that someone could interrupt him. “No, you’re right; every second you go in there, someone’s like, ‘no, no, no[inaudible],” she replies.

Anderson then acknowledged that being caught participating in a sexual act on school property could have serious consequences. “I can get a f-cking sexual charge if I get caught in the school doing that,” he says.

“Probably yeah,” Blanchard responds.

“Yeah, like life over,” Anderson adds.

An Explicit Bathroom Claim Circulates Online

4

Alongside the leaked call, an additional allegation began circulating that Anderson completed a sexual act on a bathroom floor and cleaned it with a napkin. No documentation or other evidence has emerged confirming that claim. It is also unclear who originally made the allegation or whether it refers to the school discussed in the recording.

The audio’s origin and complete context have not been independently verified. There is no indication that Anderson has been charged with a crime or that authorities have opened an investigation connected to the conversation. Nevertheless, some social media users began calling for Anderson to be investigated after the recording spread online.

Ryan Anderson Insists He ‘Never’ Did Anything At School

Anderson responded to the controversy in a TikTok video after the audio went viral. He insisted he “never” did anything sexual while inside the school, directly rejecting the conclusion some listeners reached after hearing the call.

Blanchard does not appear to have publicly addressed the leaked call or Anderson’s denial.

Was Ryan Anderson Fired From His Teaching Job?

4

Online claims have also alleged that Anderson was fired because of his relationship with Blanchard, who was incarcerated when the two first connected. However, no official employment records or statement from the school have been provided to confirm why he allegedly lost the position.

Anderson began communicating with Blanchard in 2020 while she was serving a 10-year prison sentence for her role in the 2015 murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard. The couple married in a prison ceremony in July 2022, more than a year before Blanchard was released on December 28, 2023.

Their life together after her release was documented on Lifetime’s “Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up,” but the marriage quickly unraveled. Blanchard announced their separation in March 2024 and filed for divorce the following month. She later rekindled her relationship with former fiancé Ken Urker, with whom she now shares a daughter.

The Exes Have Publicly Discussed Their Intimate Relationship

The leaked recording is not the first time details about Blanchard and Anderson’s sex life have become public. Shortly after leaving prison, Blanchard openly defended Anderson on social media by commenting on their intimate relationship. She later expressed regret over making those remarks and offered a different account of their physical connection.

Blanchard told PEOPLE that she did not enjoy having sex with Anderson, despite previously praising their chemistry online. “Ryan and my sex life was not ideal,” she said. “I told him privately. Maybe it was a lack of attraction in that area or if I still wasn’t processing properly.”

Whoopi Goldberg has done it all. From starring in “Ghost,” “The Color Purple,” and “Sister Act” to becoming an EGOT winner, the Hollywood icon has built one of the most impressive résumés in entertainment. In 2007, she added daytime television to that list when she joined “The View,” eventually rising to the show’s moderator after years as a co-host. Now, nearly two decades into her run on the long-running talk show, Goldberg is opening up about what keeps her coming back. In a recent interview with Keke Palmer, Goldberg shared one thing she loves about “The View” and revealed something about the long-running show that she said Palmer couldn’t even imagine.

On a recent episode of “Baby, This Is Keke Palmer,” Goldberg opened up to the “True Jackson, VP” actress and revealed why she joined “The View” in the early 2000s. “I needed a job,” she said.

As the conversation continued, Palmer asked the 70-year-old to share one thing she loves about hosting the beloved talk show, to which she replied, “The check. I love the check.”

Palmer shot back, “I can only imagine what that check is,” prompting Goldberg to make a rare confession about the reality of the situation.

“No, no, you can’t. Trust me, you can’t,” Goldberg said. “You would be shocked. As soon as they showed you that check, you’d be like ‘What the?’”

Whoopi Goldberg Previously Said She Couldn’t Afford To Retire

It’s unclear whether Goldberg’s comment was positive or negative; however, the actress has opened up about her finances in the past.

A year ago, Goldberg spoke with Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet about work and life, and when a reporter asked when she would decide to slow down, Goldberg implied she’d keep working until she was physically unable.

“Yeah, but who can afford to do that? You know, if you don’t marry well, you gotta keep working,” she said. “No, not by now. Not yet. I gotta keep paying those bills, baby.”

Whoopi Goldberg Said She Had To Work

Goldberg then made headlines in 2024 when she shared her thoughts on money during a Hot Topic segment of “The View.”

“I appreciate that people are having a hard time. Me, too. I work for a living,” she said. “If I had all the money in the world, I would not be here, okay? So, I’m a working person, you know?”

She didn’t stop there. She added, “My kid has to feed her family. My great-granddaughter has to be fed by her family. I know it’s hard out there.”

Josh Peck Reveals How Much Me Made Filming ‘Drake & Josh’

Goldberg isn’t the only actor who has spoken candidly about money. In a June 2026 podcast episode, Josh Peck revealed how much he and Drake Bell made after starring in the Nickelodeon show “Drake & Josh” for four years.

“By the time we finished Drake & Josh, so that was, like, 60 episodes total for the whole show. The median rate, the average rate per episode was about $15,000,” Peck shared. “So over four years, we wound up making about 900 grand.”

However, after accounting for taxes and talent fees, Peck said he and Bell cleared “half of that,” which averaged out to about “$125,000 a year.”

Other Performers Talk About How Much They Were Paid To Appear On TV

While the “Drake & Josh” leads appear to have come out of their Nickelodeon days in good financial shape, they weren’t the only performers to make surprisingly little money from major screen projects.

“Jack*ss” star Steve-O previously revealed that he earned less than $1,500 “for the entire first season” of the MTV series. At the time, his financial situation was so dire that he recalled, “Before the show came out, my sister kicked me out of the house. I was broke, unemployed, and homeless, and a star on this big MTV show.”

“Wolf of Wall Street” actor Jonah Hill, meanwhile, revealed that he was paid just $60,000 for his role in Martin Scorsese’s film. Unlike Steve-O, however, Hill didn’t see the paycheck as a problem. He famously said he “would sell [his] house and give him all [his] money to work for [Scorsese],” adding, “This isn’t about money. You should do things that you care about.”

Jennifer Lopez can do it all, but she’s especially talented at making Us want to instantly recreate her looks. After checking out all her Italian-inspired outfits this summer, we’re seeing her lean into something a little more fall-forward, and it all has to do with her sleek, long blazer style.

The singer and actress was seen strutting in a video posted on her beauty brand’s Instagram, wearing an oversized khaki blazer and trousers, a black bralette, cheeky boxers, animal-print bag and platform shoes. But of course, her loose chic layer is the main attraction, and we need one, too. Luckily, we found a similar version on Amazon with the same polished feel.
